Will all of that work on vervain?

[Because vervain should probably be your big concern.]

Also is there a reason we couldn't have compelled him as a human?

[unforgivably]

The power with which to slaughter a house of hunters?

( Look, Damon didn't think this through. But, this seemed smart. Why not have a vampire on their team and not a disposable human. )

Our plan has some kinks. But, it's a plan. They're expecting him to come back compelled, they're not expecting him to come back turned.

[Oh, that's what he was going for. Now he understands.]

Are you planning on sending him in after the werewolf?

[Because he might have an alternative plan.]

[unforgivably]

Haven't thought that far. It sounds like you're playing three steps ahead. Go on, share with the class.

( Not being berated is nice. )

We already have a witch to get us to the werewolf. I'm presuming that once you find Derek Hale, the plan is to kill all the hunters there anyway. If we're going to keep using your new friend here, being the lone survivor of a massacre is a bit suspicious.

[It is what it is.]

But being the idiot that got lost on the way to Mystic Falls? I think we've already established that this guy isn't the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree. And it would give you time to get his feeding under control and build up his vervain tolerance.

And then send him back as our Trojan horse. Days, months, even. Make him the perfect - operative.

( Let him have his SD-6 moment. )

[gambled_ourmistakes]

Exactly.

[It's a good moment. You can totally have that, Damon.]

As I said, not a bad play - so long as we play it the right way.

[unforgivably]

Look around here, we don't usually get time. We manage this, we could change the entire game.

Well, he's not even awake yet. Let's see how the rescue mission for Derek Hale goes, and whether or not that's a success should dictate our next move.

[But, he holds up his own phone, before nodding over to where Damon's is buzzing.]

But until then, you might want to check your phone.
