Damon hands Stefan two envelopes saying that he's not a good brother without Elena so he's going to go desiccate right beside her. In Homecoming, Stefan participates in the plan to kill Klaus, luring him to Mystic Falls by saying that Mikael is dead (in fact he was dead as Elena daggered him so Stefan could inform Klaus of this and not have Klaus' compulsion stop him from lying.)

Stefan has shown himself to be an experienced fighter, able to subdue his enemies easily. Elena gets angry and says that he should look at himself, because his whole life revolves around her and maybe he's the one who needs to turn it all off.

Stefan calls his brother and tells him this. She wants Damon to really consider, or reconsider, his decision. She decides that it's best if they burn the house down so that way they would have a proper cover story. Later, the brothers are in the cellar and Stefan is shown to have bled Damon out because he didn't have vervain and needed to find a way to weaken him. He had reacted calmly to being told he killed his own father, and showed no reaction being informed he had murdered Honoria Fell while walking past her gravestone.
