'Vampire Diaries' Video: Stefan Strips Down & Schemes With Rebekah

Courtesy of The CW

Plus, Stefan officially declares he’s ‘done’ with Elena! But do you believe him?

Stefan (Paul Wesley) hasn’t shown much skin on The Vampire Diaries lately, and it looks like he’s starting to make up for lost time! In this clip from the Jan. 24 episode, a post-shower Stefan finds Rebekah (Claire Holt) waiting for him in his bed. Could this be the start of “Stebekah?”

Eh, not quite. Stefan’s ex merely surprises him at his mansion to discuss the cure — and how Team Rebekah can get a leg up on the competition.

Stefan & Rebekah’s Full Conversation About The Cure

Stefan: I know you were daggered for a little while, but knocking is still a thing.

Rebekah: So is writing in your diary, apparently. I’m just checking for doubts. You can never be too cautious when it comes to love. One minute you’re begging me to compel Elena from your mind, and the next, I’m up coffin creek with a dagger in my back.

Stefan: Right, well, you can read it all you want. I’m done with her.

Rebekah: Until we find the cure, right? … Hey, I’m talking to you!

Stefan: Oh, I know you are. I’m ignoring you.

Rebekah: Look, we’re at a little disadvantage in this whole ‘race for the cure.’ Team Klaus has Jeremy the hunter, Team Shane has Bonnie the witch…

Stefan: If you’re here to remind me of our last-place status, I’m very well aware.

Rebekah: Actually, I have a plan. The cure is buried with Silas, that ancient evil guy my brother Kol is afraid of. Shane was so eager to prove his existence that he gave away he has one of the keys to resurrecting him — his headstone.

Stefan: I see, you want to steal it.

Rebekah: Yes, and then Team Shane will have to join Team Rebekah, and Team Klaus will be left out in the cold where he belongs.

Watch Stefan and Rebekah scheming below, then drop a comment with your best theories: Do you think their partnership could become something more?

Even if they get the cure and elena becomes human, would stefan really want her back, and if he did he would always doubt her love for him because she loves damon. Why are stelena fans so obsessed with them getting back together! Can’t you see that they will never truly be happy together!

They can be happy again but they have matured. Why doesn’t anyone see that stefan and elena are meant to be together. They have faught for each other and would die for each other. Ok yes Damon and his ways moved in and ruined Stefan’s only happiness. I don’t get how they will find a cute if there’s a spinoff. Klaus leaving means there’s nothing for him in mystic falls

Damon and Elena have faught for each other and they too would die for each other!!

I really don’t think that Stefan’s motives for the cure, are what they were before the last episode. A coworker at DISH and I have been discussing the possibility that like Rebekah, he wants the cure for himself. I am interested to find out and to see how their plan works; my DISH Hopper is already set to make sure I don’t miss anything. With the amount of shows my roommate and I watch, the 2,000 hours of storage space are very necessary to eliminate arguments over the remote. I also love that with the Whole-Home HD DVR, we can watch separate recordings in any room in the house. I love coming home to new episodes of the Vampire Diaries, and now that Rebekah and Stefan have teamed up, it seems like things are going to be getting very interesting in Mystic Falls.

Stefan is so convinced that the only way Elena can love Damon is if she’s sired… I’m team klaus all the way and i hope team shane team up with them because team Rebekah does not deserve that cure… Nothing ever works if you’re fueled by hate, anger and revenge. And stefan and damon should make up already i mean seriously way back when kathrine and elena both chose stefan; damon went off the rails a bit but he wasnt nearly as dramatic as stefan’s being – “I hate my brother” and all. Just get over yourself stefan… u and damon both want the same thing. okay… Rant Over.

Is Stefan so desperate to turn Elena back to human that he’ll trust anyone, he’s turning into Klaus Mark Two, first by turning Jeremy into a Hunter, then by trusting Rebekah and conspiring with Klaus behind everyone’s back. What if the cure doesn’t actually exist, or even if it does, it doesn’t actually work and turns Elena into something else, much worse than a vampire or werewolf.

Asi je potřeba, aby se Stefan s Rebekou opět sblížil. Lepší překlene ztrátu Eleny /já fandím Delena/ a možná najdou lék a vše bude úplně jinak. Nevím jak to Julie Plec pro nás fanoušky připravila, ale každopádně nás napíná a to je dobře a doufám, že to tak bude pokračovat!!!

stebekah is coming

Well, another twisted plan from dumb and dumber…really? Shane is NOT working for them, Shane will be working for Shane…We all know how these revenge-fueled plans end up, don’t we? Stefan doesn’t seem to remember what happened last time he tried to exact revenge from Klaus. This is going to be another feeble attempt that will get them nowhere. Stefan needs to move on and team up with Damon and Jeremy for they all want the cure for Elena. More people on board with any plan will make the plan more feasible. And Rebekah, well…she will get daggered again for plotting against Klaus…she is dumber than a doorknob…

great plan!!! But how an Stefan trust Rebekah? And doesn’t Damon and Stefan want the same thing? To cure Elena, so she is free from the sire bond? I can understand why Stefan doesn’t want to be buddy buddy with Damon right now, but they have the same goal!
