( Rhett gets himself to his feet, Damon just narrows his eyes.
"Well, at least we know she didn't link herself to him. Brother," Damon says. "Whatever you did do to him, undo it. Like now." With everyone awake and present, Beck hands Damon the gun and retreats upstairs to the ladder Damon remembers. He finds it quickly (18), determined as he is to free everyone and save Stefan.
He lumbers back down with the ladder, as he turns, he "accidentally" hits Lordan in the head with it.
[Stefan glances up at he area around him, and this is why it's usually good to have a witch around. But when he sees the bucket over his head, he looks a smidge concerned.]
Please make sure you don't spill that while you're doing whatever you're about it do. I can feel the heat from here.
[Lindsay manages to steady her wayward fiance (12), but between Buffy and Rhett, they're able to take the major threat - the kill switch - off the table. It doesn't stop the barrier spell, but the witch loses her leverage.
Scarlett looks down at her with a wide, dangerous smile, and ends this unfortunate stand-off with a quick snap of the neck. And with that, the barrier flickers and Stefan is free.]
( Damon pulls his brother out of the circle, Buffy awaits her turn and tugs Stefan close. He scared her, but she knows it's not his fault. Beck and Lindsay have their own reunion, as do Rhett and Scarlett who are less demonstrative with a touch of their hands. )
Why she thought five-on-two were good odds.
( Damon lifts gymrat by his scruff.
"Promise me, this is the end of whatever she was cooking up.")

I don't think she expected the cavalry.

Damon has an idea.
"All in favor of keeping him with us, in case something happens," he says, holding a hand up. He brings a hand down. "Or, we could cut him loose."
Beck holds a hand up.
"Whatever he says, he was in her tutelage. Anything that may transpire with Stefan, he will know. Or, at least have an idea."
Rhett votes to cut him loose and says just that. )

[Even if he does seem to be not too bright in that respect. Lindsay points to Stefan, indicating she's with him.]

Can we please get out of this basement, now?
