We define ourselves by our family. From birth we share their names, entrust them to protect that which we hold most dear. We value them above all others, and yet inevitably, we are forced apart. Promises are made then left unkept. Children in particular turn their backs on those who raised them, seeking lives of their own. The bond of family is not a bond forged by choice. In fact, some would see family as a terrible burden.

Dahlia

Cami: Am I supposed to fear you, too?
Klaus: It would be better for you if you did.

[to Cami] If I tell you who I really am and you refuse to believe me then I can hardly be blamed for your disappointment.

Klaus

Aiden: A good Alpha would never turn on his pack.
Jackson: Neither did you in the end.

[to Josh] Like I said, I am who I am. I am a pack guy, and you are my pack now.

Aiden

This may come as a surprise to you, Camille, but I'm not a terribly good person.

Klaus

If you lay even a finger on her I swear I will make you suffer in ways even your evil mind can't imagine.

Hayley

Cami: Maybe we could go for a walk. You could spend, I don't know, 5 seconds, not obsessing about who not to trust and who you're going to murder next.
Klaus: I quite enjoy my obsessions, thank you very much.

Elijah: Niklaus, if we cannot trust one another, we cannot work together.
Klaus: No, we cannot.

It's not every day you lose your father at the hands of your brother. Again.

Rebekah

Aiden: Josh, hey...
Josh: Hey, look. Before you say anything, I'm sorry I lied to you about my sketchy phone call with Klaus this morning. I'm a jerk. Wait. My bad. I accidentally did your side of the conversation.

Mikael: We are well met. So be it. Are you ready?
Klaus: I was born ready.
