CW's The Vampire Diaries will return this week with a brand new episode in season four, titled American Gothic.

Rebekah (Claire Holt) clearly has no qualms about getting physical, as she shows a concert-goer who is in charge when he touches her golden mane.

In a new clip, the Original sister reveals her tendency for violence yet again. She happens to run into Katherine (Nina Dobrev), and it seems as though she's had her hands full trying to convince a whole town to approve of her.

"It's really more sad than funny," says Rebekah.

However, the feeling of hate is seemingly mutual, as Katherine becomes even more doubtful in her when she finds out that Rebekah would like to take the cure for herself in order to have a shot at a normal life again.

"Are you really that dumb or just naturally blond?" says Katherine.

It appears as though Rebekah is willing to let Ms. Pierce's snarky comment fall by the wayside, but when Katherine reminds her that the cure will only remove her immortality and not "everything else you hate about yourself," the older vampire comes to the realization that she's had enough.

Rebekah easily breaks a few bones in Katherine's hand when the Salvatore brothers showed up to save her, stopping things prior to any legitimate damage is done.

The Vampire Diaries is set to air its American Gothic episode on Thursday, March 28 at 8 p.m. EDT. A sneak peek at the upcoming episode can be viewed below.
