Damon adamantly keeps his brother's location a secret after getting warned about the organization's dubious past from Valerie. An equally adamant Enzo tranquilizes Damon and knocks out Bonnie (it is shown that, somehow, Enzo makes Bonnie immune to magic). Damon finds himself locked in with a comatose Tyler who will soon transition into a werewolf because it is a full moon. Bonnie takes desperate measures to save Damon from being bitten. Damon struggles with Tyler, who makes him realize that "people around him are always dying in order to save him and it must stop".

Damon sees that she is not healing with his blood and gets her hospitalized. As he talks to an unconscious Bonnie, he says that he is deeply hurt to have put her and Stefan's lives in danger, both of whom tried to save him.

Damon is struggling with the werewolf toxin in his system and contemplating on whether he should participate for the mark transfer (as he will die when Rayna does naturally in another 60-70 years ergo, bidding goodbye to his chance of seeing Elena ever again) or come up with a better plan. In the meanwhile, Valerie comes to his rescue; over the past three years - her and Stefan's friendship has seen evolution and while globe-trotting, they have managed to contact an individual who may know ways to end Rayna. Nora finds Enzo and they decide to collectively fight Alex who they eventually corner. Alex is curious as to why Enzo is so desperate to stash all the lethal-to-a-witch pills and reveals that there is no antidote and Mary Lou is as good as dead. Valerie and Damon are running against time to capture Rayna and save Stefan but it gets too late as the huntress gains over them - Damon finally agrees to do the mark transfer but before they are done, Rayna has already stabbed and sent Stefan back into the hell stone leaving Valerie and Damon devastated. Nora and Mary Lou share their final moments and in a run-in with Rayna, Nora gets marked and the sword gets stuck to their car. Both Nora and Mary Lou finally decide to be together in death as they do their last magic to break and destroy the Phoenix stone forever along with blowing their car off to pieces.
