Official Synopsis: First Episode of the 4th Season -->

ELENA’S WORST NIGHTMARE — Elena awakens on the morning after the accident to find the thing she dreaded most has come true – she died with vampire blood in her system and now must go through the terrible transition to become a vampire... or face certain death. Stefan promises Elena that he and Bonnie will exhaust every possible way out of the situation, but Damon is furious with his brother for letting Elena die in the first place. Bonnie pays a terrible price for her attempt to change Elena’s fate, while Damon takes out his frustration and rage on Matt. In a rare moment of empathy, Rebekah is deeply touched by Stefan and Elena’s devotion to one another. Finally, Pastor Young and the Town Council members begin rounding up the vampires and their supporters, leading to an unexpected tragedy. 

First promo: 

Elena: "Am I dead? ... No!"

Damon (To Elena): "There is no way out. We all know the drill. You feed or you die. There is no door number three.

Stefan: "You know what, you weren't there the day Elena looked me in the eye and told me she absolutely never wanted this."

Damon: "Then you shouldn't have let her die."

Stefan: "I never meant for her to die. She asked me to help Matt first and I did."

Damon: "And now the world has one more quarterback. Bravo, brother."

Stefan: "I made a choice that I will regret for the rest of my life. Now let me try to fix it."

Jeremy (To Elena): "Your fangs coming yet?"

Rebekah: "Tragic about Elena. Not to make the grey cloud greyer, but does Matt even have automobile insurance for the car?"

Shelia Bennett: "She is not your problem to solve. Now go, before they keep you here."

Klaus (To Caroline in Tyler's body): "Easy, love. Wrong time. Wrong place. Wrong equipment."
