"You set me up!"
Eric obviously didn't want to kneel, so he tried to do anything to frame Theo instead.
Theo, on the other hand, tilted his head in confusion. "This is truly great. Now that you've lost, you're trying to frame me when I haven't done anything. So, this is how the Salvatore Family acts."
"This is the truth. Do you think I don't know how you used Grace Anderson to manipulate her brother?!"
"I'm simply doing my job as a teacher and teaching her to the best of my ability. As for her actions, I have no control over them. It's up to her whether she persuades her brother or not. In fact, doesn't this make you look inferior to me as a teacher?" Theo smirked.
"This is clearly a setup. You already know that she's going to persuade her brother and you use it to make me bet with you!"
