"What I'm saying is, as your manager, I am advising you to fire your manager." " That's..." "That's all I'm saying." " OK." "I can't fire you." "CMJ's in ten days." "You said we had a showcase gig with industry insiders" " and AR guys..." " Movers and shakers?" " Was I drinking when I said that?" " You're always drinking." "See, you should totally fire me!"

"How'd you know my name?" "I can read your mind." "Wow." "What am I thinking right now?" "You're thinking this bartender is crazy." "You're good." "You're afraid of being a loser the rest of your life." "Too late for you, too late for the band." "I'd say you're 30 pounds ofjunk food and a retail job away from killing yourself." "Just a guess." "Thanks for the drink." "So how'd it go with Jeff?" "Great, you know?" "He's really excited about the New York show." "Says there's gonna be a lot of industry insiders, movers and shakers." "Right."

"I'll meet up with you guys in the morning, OK?" "I'm going out with some friends." "That is a friend of yours?" "Oh, I'm sorry, is that any of your business?" "He looks like a junkie from hell, for chrissakes." " Don't you have a girlfriend?" " This is about the band!" "It always is." "We have a six-hour drive tomorrow." "And I don't wanna sleep in the hearse." "The hearse smells like drummer." " I heard that." " I'm going to a party." "Fine, you know, but we're leaving at noon tomorrow, with or without you." " Fine." "I'll see you then." " Fine." "Wait." "If you're going to a party, give these out." "They got the new website on them." " Maybe you should go with her." " She can handle herself."

"Right, Jenny?" "No, this is real." "And you had Hugo cover your tracks as usual." "And you're an insensitive asshole who only cares about himself as usual!" "Do you think I want to be in this situation?" "You think I know who the hell you are any more?" " Nobody likes a judge." " Yeah, no one likes a vampire, either." " Screw you, Joey!" " Screw me?" "Screw me?" " You're out of the band, Jennifer!" " She's kind of the best thing" " about this band right now." " Tyler..." "I'm just saying, maybe you should sleep on it." "Oh, my God, you really ate Beef." "This is really happening." "It's really happening." "OK." "Well, we have to call the cops." "Who are you?" "No one's calling the cops." "We're still a band, not a bunch of narcs!" " There's a dead body in the bathtub." " What are you gonna tell them?" ""Our bass player's a vampire, she just ate the most popular band in Buffalo"?" " They'll lock you up!" " What happens on the road" " stays on the road." " Just shut up, OK?" "Let me think." " Do you have vampire powers?" " Yes." " Really?" " Oh, yeah." "I'm super fast, super strong and I can talk to other vampires with my mind." " Plus, I can turn into fog." " Get out!" " She ate The Itchies." " You ate The Itchies?" " Holy shit, Jennifer!"

"But if we're still playing this showcase gig, we need to set some ground rules." " OK." " What kind of ground rules?" "Rule number one:" "Under no circumstances may you make any other member of this band into a vampire." " She promised me immortality." " Yeah." "Life's about disappointment." " Rule number one's bullshit!" " OK, Hugo..." "Rule number two:" "No more killing, all right?" "If you need blood, we'll..." "We'll pull over and you can suck on a cow." " Will that work?" " It's a deal-breaker, OK?" "No more mur..." "No more murders." "All right, fine." "I'll try cow blood." "It might work." "Might work." "Didn't think to try it first, just..." "You're judging again." "Rule number three:" "Total honesty from this point on." " No more secrets." " You mean like Jeff quitting?" "Jeff quit?" "Yeah, Jeff quit, OK?" "I lied." "But it was for the good of the band." "Jeff quit?" "Well, what about our big industry insider show, with all the movers and shakers?" "Why are we even bothering to go?" "I don't know any more." "Lighten up, man." "We'll go."
