On Thursday's new episode of The Vampire Diaries, Elena and Damon take a trip to Chicago.

But they don't attend a game at Wrigley Field. Or see a play in the Apollo Theater. Heck, they don't even stop for a meal at any of the city's famous restaurants (I recommend Alinea).

Instead, the duo visits Stefan's former apartment, where Damon refers to the former Stefan as a "cocky ripper douche" and Elena tries to maintain her composure in the face of a disturbing discovery. Check out the official promo for "The End of the Affair" now and then watch this clip:
