Quotes 

• Elijah Mikaelson : [Hope's driving the Bentley]  That would be a stop sign approaching. It's a stop sign.

  Hope Mikaelson : Okay, okay. No need to panic attack about it. I cannot kill you, and I'm dying already, so...

  Elijah Mikaelson : Is it absolutely necessary to destroy this work of art in the process?

  Hope Mikaelson : Hmm.

  [Elijah sighs] 

  Hope Mikaelson : I know what you're doing, you know. With the milkshakes and... the driving lessons. Life's little pleasures, whatever. I'm not like... suicidal, if that's what you're worried about, you know. That's not what I meant when I said that dying might be for the best.

  Elijah Mikaelson : Well, you certainly don't seem to have any interest in your survival.

  Hope Mikaelson : I don't wanna die. I don't think I was supposed to exist in the first place. When I think about all the crazy things that led to me being born. Dad lives a thousand years, does weird rituals, becomes the only vampire who can procreate. Mom moves from foster home to foster home and end up in Mystic Falls. When Dad got sad and drunk...

  Elijah Mikaelson : Okay...

  Hope Mikaelson : ...after a one-nighter with Mom...

  Elijah Mikaelson : ...we don't have to...

  Hope Mikaelson : ...which was basically hate-banging him...

  Elijah Mikaelson : Honestly...

  Hope Mikaelson : Bang! Loophole!

  Elijah Mikaelson : Yes...

  Hope Mikaelson : Miracle baby! But can you be a miracle and a mistake at the same time?

  Elijah Mikaelson : No one is a mistake, Hope. This family fought tooth and nail from the moment we learned of your existence.

  Hope Mikaelson : I know. But the universe has been trying to kill me since before I was born to reset the balance of nature. And I'm grateful that you guys have fought so hard... but I knew when I took the power back that I would die. It was my decision.

  Elijah Mikaelson : [sighs]  Turn right here.

• Hayley Marshall : [Hope's pseudo-death experience]  What happened? Why are you here?

  Hope Mikaelson : I was sick. Mom, there's so much I have to tell you.

  Hayley Marshall : No, you shouldn't be here. Hope, it's not your time yet.

  Hope Mikaelson : It's okay. I wanna be here. I wanna be here with you.

  Hayley Marshall : No! You have to go back. I need you to fight this. Hope, wake up!

  Klaus Mikaelson : [in real life, kneeling over his unconscious daughter]  Get Caroline! Tell her to bring her girls. *Go!*

  [as Elijah dashes off, urging Hope:] 

  Klaus Mikaelson : Please come back to me. *Hope! Hope!*

  Hayley Marshall : [breathing heavily]  You... you have to go back to your Dad. Hope!

  Hope Mikaelson : I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry that everything happened, and I can't forgive myself.

  Hayley Marshall : Well, too bad, because I forgive you. *I forgive you, Hope.* And I know that you're scared, and I know that you're sad, and that's okay. What happened this year was about hatred and ugliness that was born long before you and long before me. I need you to fight this. Hope, *wake up!*

  Hope Mikaelson : I wanna be here.

  [tearfully:] 

  Hope Mikaelson : I don't wanna leave you here alone.

  Hayley Marshall : I'm not alone. Listen.

  [guitar music heard] 

  Hayley Marshall : Come with me.

  [Hope follows, pleasant chatter heard around campfire] 

  Hayley Marshall : Look.

  [laughter, chatting] 

  Hayley Marshall : Jackson's here. My parents. Grandma Mary. I'm not dead because of you. I'm at peace because of you.

  Hope Mikaelson : [exhales]  If I go back, am I ever gonna see you again?

  Hayley Marshall : [shakes her head]  Not for a very, very long time. So you better have good stories, okay? Make art, use your voice,

  [Hope sobs] 

  Hayley Marshall : have adventures, and have at least one totally epic love.

  [both chuckle through tears] 

  Hayley Marshall : And be every bit of yourself, because the very best of me is in you.

  Hope Mikaelson : [through deluge of tears]  I love you, Mom.

  Hayley Marshall : And I love you, too.

  [they hug] 

  Hayley Marshall : Always and forever.

  Hope Mikaelson : [still crying]  I don't wanna let go.

  Hayley Marshall : I need you to do something for me.

  Klaus Mikaelson : [in real life]  Please, Hope, please!

  [tearfully:] 

  Klaus Mikaelson : Hope, come back to me!

  Hope Mikaelson : [comes to]  Dad! Dad!

  Klaus Mikaelson : You're okay, you're okay!

  [hugs her, holds her close] 

  Hope Mikaelson : I don't wanna die...

  Klaus Mikaelson : I know.

  Hope Mikaelson : I don't wanna die!

  Klaus Mikaelson : I know. You're not gonna die. Sweetheart, you're not gonna die, I promise you. I found a way to save your life. And everything is gonna be better in the morning. I promise you.

  [sobs] 

  Klaus Mikaelson : I promise.

• Elijah Mikaelson : [to Hope]  You know something? When you were born, I declared that... you would be the savior of this family. It wasn't fair. We shouldn't have been your burden to bear.

  Hope Mikaelson : How old were you when you promised to protect my father? Much older than me?

• Hope Mikaelson : The diaries of Stefan Salvatore. I know I'm not supposed to touch it, but I practically have the whole thing memorized. Spoiler alert: Dad's the villain, and you're the evil henchman.

  Elijah Mikaelson : From a very biased point of view.
