The Vampire Diaries · S1, E12
Unpleasantville
As Stefan and Damon try to figure out the identity of the new vampire in town, Stefan gives Elena jewelry filled with Vervain to protect her family and friends. Hurting for money, Matt takes a job at the Mystic Grill, where former high school football star Ben (guest star Sean Faris - Never Back Down, Forever Strong, Reunion) works as a bartender. Ben comes to Bonnie's aid when he notices Damon is bothering her. Damon and Stefan accompany Elena to a school dance with a 1950s theme, where Alaric (recurring guest star Matt Davis) introduces himself to Damon.
