"Can't I just watch the film?" "Mina's in it." "I need to know what it says about Mina." "Oh, right." "Yeah." "It says she's a boring bitch we can do without." "It says she's a vampire." "You wanted to see him." "Your wish is granted." "It annoys you, doesn't it, having me around?" "He's in there... somewhere." "I told you not to come back." "When have I ever listened to you before?" "I don't want to know where you've been or what you've been up to." "It's lovely to see you too." "What do you want, Quincey?" "Catch up." "I doubt it." "I miss you." "It's the truth, for all it's worth." "I miss you, Mina." "Do you miss me?" "I think so." "What do you want?" "I've had enough of being on my own." "Would you believe me if I said I was lonely?"

"Vampires have been around for thousands of years." "You'll find a vampire myth in almost every culture." "Most people think vampires come from Transylvania, but actually they started out in the Far East." "Yosh!" "From China, and Tibet they transported themselves with the trade caravans along the silk route to the Mediterranean." "Maybe they were looking for a better quality of life." "The Slavs seem to think that if they scatter poppy seeds at their graveside, vampires will stay up all night counting them, instead of killing people." "Sadly that is untrue." "The South Americans think that aloe vera over the door will do the trick." "Also untrue." "The only thing that will help against a type 12 are quick reactions." "Vampires move faster than a New-York minute." "How fast is that?" "About this fast." "Who's side are you on?" "I think I'll be all right, a bit of practice..." "Oh, this is just the beginning, my boy." "Those skills will only help you if you're fighting vampires, not if you want to kill them." "I'll buy a few bulbs of garlic and Mum's got a stake in the garden." "Fairy stories." "Only vampires can kill vampires." "If you want to kill a vampire, you gotta bring it back to life." "Right." "We need a sample of Quincey's DNA." "You mean like a hair or something?" "A hair, a piece of clothing." "Fine." "I'll just ask if I can borrow his jeans." "We need to stake out his lair." "There's gotta be something there." "More waiting around in cars." "No car this time, sorry." "Eurgh!" "Yo!" "I come bearing gifts." "And information." "Mina is a slapper." "That is the crucial piece of news that will solve this whole case !" "Seriously." "She let Dracula suck her blood night after night after night." "What else?" "She's, like, really old." "I mean like 150." "Underneath her clothes she must " "Ruby, have you found out anything useful?" "Interesting not necessarily useful." "You are completely hopeless, you know that?" "I am not...not completely." "Are you sure you're up to this?" "Yeah." "Just don't get too close." "Call us when he's on his way home." "Take this." "I can do that."

"Unlucky." "Galvin." "Galvin." "Galvin." "Galvin!" "Galvin!" "Oh, erm, a lemonade, please." "You must have worked up quite a thirst following me all that way." "At least let me buy you a drink." "The problem is, that vampires have really had a bad press." "And you just can't afford to get a bad press these days." "The fact is that you kill people." "You kill to eat." "Well, yeah, but - It's no different." "I eat chicken." "Do you like it?" "Love it." "It's the same for me." "Chickens don't have feelings." "Are you sure about that?" "They're not intelligent." "Neither are most humans." "So, I mean..." "How many people have you killed?" "You're intrigued now, huh?" "I'm not intrigued." "I'm horrified." "How often do you eat chicken?" "Once a fortnight." "For...?" "18 years." "Once a fortnight for 18 years." "That's 468 chickens." "Now, if you imagine that I've been alive about six times longer than you..." "That's a lot of people." "The chickens feel the same." "You shouldn't have sent him in there." "He'll be fine." "I'll be fine." "God damn it." "He's the Last Van Helsing." "He has to fight vampires some time." "He's not ready." "Nor's Galvin." "That's not the problem." "We have cuts and bruises but no DNA." "Hiya." "We'll have to go back in there." "It's too dangerous." "What's up?" "There must be another way." "Are you sure an old-fashioned stake through the heart won't kill him?" "We've tried that." "Don't ask." "Did you get your butt kicked?" "Supposing we get the DNA, what were you going to do with it?" "By using electric currents to stimulate dead DNA, dust becomes living." "Then what?" "We shoot him with it." "The live DNA infects his body." "What was once dead, lives again." "And without his immortality..." "Quincey reverts back to his natural age." "Which is?" "125." "At which point - He dies." "Cool." "Well, it would be 'cool', if we could get a sample of his DNA." "Did you not get his DNA, then?" "Do you have anything useful to say?" "I may be blind, but I'm not stupid."

"Nothing worked." "They managed to keep it at bay for a while but..." "I am what I am... a vampire." "I watched as my husband," "Jonathan, grew old and died." "Quincey was all I had left." "He was so much like Jonathan - so intelligent and gentle." "Er, hello?" "Gentle?" "!" "It's true." "But that was a long time ago." "He changed." "After the war he was damaged and bitter." "Everywhere he went he was surrounded by death and then death came for him too." "Many soldiers died of septicaemia." "Their wounds became infected." "There was no way of treating them, no antibiotics, no knowledge of blood groups." "Quincey wouldn't have lasted another day." "I couldn't sit there and watch him die, Luke." "He was my only child, the only link to the life I once had." "I knew there was one thing that would save him." "My blood." "Sleep now." "And when you wake, everything will be better."

"I messed everything up." "Listen, I don't see things as black and white as Galvin, but it seems pretty clear to me " "Quincey has to die." "I know." "I know." "I've given him enough chances." "He's not going to change." "I'm going in after them." "I don't think that's a very good idea." "You've seen how powerful Quincey is." "Galvin tried to defeat him once - tried and failed."

"Where have you been?" "Well, what's the story?" "I'm not happy about this." " I'm not happy either." "God knows whether Galvin and Ruby are even alive." "Where are they?" "It's a warehouse in Shoreditch." "Do you want me to come with you?" "Thanks, but I think it's best I go on my own." "It's wine." "Doesn't smell like any wine I've ever drunk." "Maybe there's a little blood in there." "Why do you do it?" "Mina's not going to join you." "Why do you do what you do?" "I have my reasons." "Bitterness." "It's been a few years now maybe it's time to let it go." "You half-lives took away the one thing I had in my life." "Oh, she was lovely " "Galvin's wife." "He's got a picture in his wallet." "I'm sure he'll show you some time." "Galvin likes to group us all together." "One half-life got his back up, so we all have to suffer." "People deal with their problems in different ways." "You have no idea about problems." "My mother was bitten by Dracula, I fought in a war I didn't believe in, my father died, my friends died and to top it all off my mother turned me into a vampire." "I deserve my time on the couch." "He's got a point." "Don't let him sweet talk you, Ruby." "He's a killing machine just like the rest of them." "(One, two, three.)" "All right?" "Role play." "You know how it is." "Galvin is obsessed with revenge." "For me, it's power." "And with Mina's blood, the pure blood of Dracula," "I will be the most powerful vampire around." "Chin, chin." "Mina!" ""You gave me the wrong address." "What's going on?" "Mina, pick up." "Mina!"" "Mother?" "I want you to let them go." "This has nothing to do with them." "Forgive me if I don't entirely trust you." "You're my son, Quincey." "I didn't let them hurt you, did I?" "I won't let you down again." "I've saved your life before." "Remember?" "And that was the biggest mistake I've ever made." "Bloody hell." "For once, Ruby, I think you might be right." "Can you reach my hands?" "Not quite." "Yeah!" "No matter how much you want to, you can't." "You gave me life." "I'm still your son." "No, not any more." "Yours...and Jonathan's..." "The time for games is over, Mr Galvin." "I offered a perfectly reasonable swap, but my mother has declined." "I can only apologise." "I'm sorry too." "Luke!" "You said that wouldn't kill her." "It'll slow her down." "Quincey!" "I'm sorry." "Don't worry about me." "I've died before." "God damn it!" "I am going to buy you a new coffee machine." "It's worse than that." "Oh." "Stack 11, second shelf, third book along." "Ah-ha-ha!" "You'll be the first vampire in heaven, Mina." "Well, I'll send word to you in hell, Rupert Galvin." "You can see, right, when you're a vampire?" "That must be weird." "It is." "Now I know what you both look like." "And...?" "You're better than I expected." "You're...as..." "I expected." "What's that supposed to mean?" "No, I'm sorry." "What is that supposed to mean?" "It means things are back to normal." "Actually, Galvin, you could do with losing a few pounds." "Word is you got yourself a new girlfriend." "It's Alice." "It's girls like her that give women a bad reputation." "Everybody's part of this war." "They just don't know about it yet." "It symbolises vengeance and must be paid in blood." "What is it?" "It was Luke." "He looked like he was dead." "transcript:chocolate sync:innuit"
