"NARRATOR:" "Previously on Moonlight:" "MICK:" "I wanna help people." "That's why I became a PI." "If I can help others, it might make up for what I am." "[BONE SNAPS AND GRUNTING]" "LEE JAY:" "Now, if I got this right, a stake in your heart will paralyze you." "I see it now." "It's like your own little prison, isn't it?" "This whole vampire thing." "You can't have anybody poking around." "A girlfriend, anyone who cares." "Is that your friend?" "The blond?" "This is Beth Turner for Buzzwire." "Since you met that guy, screwed up has started to seem normal." "MICK:" "Please don't look at me." "[GASPS]" "BETH:" "What are you?" "I'm a vampire." " Beth." " I'm here to talk to you about, um you." "Maybe you should come in." "I really need you to tell me that I didn't see what I saw..." "What I think I saw the other night." "The blood, the fangs." " I heard what you said." " That I'm a vampire." "How am I supposed...?" "Are you the only one?" "Or are there other vampires?" "A few hundred here in L.A." " How can people not know you exist?" " We're extremely careful." "Sometimes people see things, but they dismiss it." " How can they?" " Or no one believes them." "People have been hunting us for thousands of years." "So it's extremely important that no one knows we exist." " Do you understand?" " Mm-hm." "So do you bite people's necks and suck the blood out?" "Actually, I get most of my blood from the blood bank." "Oh." "The Red Cross does not mention that in their literature." " I don't think they know." " Do you know how crazy this is?" "I'm trying really hard to wrap my mind around what you said and what I saw." "Hey, I get it." "It's a lot to get." "So how does a person even become a vampire?" "How did you become a vampire?" "I'll love you forever." " Forever?" " Forever." "BETH:" "Mick?" "I'm sorry, I can't." "Not..." "I'm sorry, you gotta go." "Were you bitten by another vampire?" "Is that how it works?" "One minute, you're Mick the human, and the next, you're Mick the vampire?" " Another time." " What was it like?" "Another time." "MICK:" "What's it like to turn into a vampire?" "As if there were some way to describe it." "What do you do when your whole world changes in the blink of an eye?" "[GRUNTS]" "Sir?" "Sir, can you hear me?" "Sir?" "Are you all right?" "Everything's gonna be all right." "I'm a doctor." "Okay, I'm just gonna feel your neck a little bit, sir, okay?" "Stay with me, come on." "When suddenly, all the rules change." "[ROARING]" "[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING OVER RADIO]" "[CAN CLATTERING]" "[PAPER RIPPING]" "[GLASS CLINKING]" "[RUSTLING]" "[SNARLING]" "[COUGHING]" "Hey." "What are you doing?" " You have to pay for those." " I'm not paying for anything." "Something's wrong with your food!" "It doesn't have any taste." "[CLERK GRUNTS]" "You're crazy." "You stay away from me." "You get back." "I mean it." "BETH:" "At this time, the police aren't releasing any details." "But earlier tonight a store clerk was murdered at this downtown location." "We'll post details as soon as we get them." " This is Beth Turner for Buzzwire." "PHIL:" "And we are good." "I'll go to the van and upload your report to the archives." "WOMAN 1:" "Yeah, give me..." "CARL:" "I know that she was inside." "WOMAN 2:" "It's a bloody mess in there." "The guy was chewed up." " A wild animal maybe?" "WOMAN 2:" "In a convenience store?" "CARL:" "Maybe someone didn't approve of his slushy flavors and then sicced his dog on the poor bastard." "WOMAN 2:" "Pit bull?" "Like the one that mauled the woman in San Francisco?" " Maybe." "WOMAN 2:" "Best theory so far." " We'll see what the coroner says." "CARL:" "All right." "Let's call it a night." "You got it." "Listen, whatever you heard off the record." "I heard "bloody, chewed-up body."" " I don't want you going out with this." " Then give me something." "Come on, Carl." "It's me." "Just give me a little something." "Off the record, I swear." " That's what you always say." " And I always hold the story." "Look, fine." "This guy in here was not just chewed up." "Okay?" "His blood was gone." "Somehow, his body was completely drained." "Jeez, Guillermo, you're like a 12-year-old girl with the messages." "Texting." "All right, I'm here." "What's the emergency?" "Came in a couple of hours ago." "Look at how the flesh has been ripped away." "It's like something was trying to eat this guy." "What are the cops saying?" "GUILLERMO:" "Well, for now, dog attack." " Yeah." "Right." "Not many vampire victims come into the morgue." "That's why I wanted you to get down here before the coroner took a look." "The vampire that did this must have been severely pissed off." "Or newly turned." "I can barely smell any decay." "But why wasrt his sire controlling him?" "Maybe this sire changed his mind." " Deserted the newbie." " That goes against every rule." "A sire has to be responsible for who they turn." "Help them through the transition." "I hardly remember anything from when I got turned." "I was too out of it." "I remember the rage the need to satisfy a hunger that I didn't understand and what it felt like to feed for the first time." "We've got a rogue on our hands." "The way to find this guy is to find his sire." "[DOOR CLATTERS]" "What are you doing here?" "Word is something slashed him open and drained all his blood out." "Something?" "What, as in something like me?" " I didn't say that." " Whatever did this is nothing like me." " Okay?" " Okay, fine." "I believe you." " I want you off this case." " Why?" "Because there's a vampire involved?" "Oh, God, I can't believe I just said that." "Yeah, exactly." "Hey, I've been doing this job long before I knew about vampires." " I don't have to ask your permission." " It's gonna get dangerous." "Then it's a good thing I got you around." "Okay." "MAN [OVER PA]:" "All new interns, report to OR 2 for observation." "You still wanna know how someone becomes a vampire?" "Well, first, you have to reach a point near death." "Then the vampire, your sire, feeds you their own blood." " Your sire, like a parent?" " Kind of." "So do they tell you what to do?" "Are you close forever?" "Like humans, some relationships are terrible, some are amazing." "It can go a million different ways." "There's no way to predict, but something has gone wrong in this one." "I'll go through the wire reports see if the cause of death matches any other recent murder victims." "Will you ask the other vampires if they know anything?" "There's not, like, a big clubhouse where we all hang out." "Oh, okay." "Well, however it works." "I'll deal with the cops and the computers." "The other thing, you're the expert." "MICK:" "Time was, I didn 't even know vampires existed  let alone being an expert." "But I know one thing:" "A rogue vampire won 't stop killing on his own." "The first thing a newly turned vampire needs to do is feed." "Problem is, if you don 't know what you're hungry for  you'll try anything  when, really, you're only looking for one thing:" "Blood." "City sidewalks are covered in all kinds of crap:" "Gum, bits of food, cigarette butts, spit." "But I can always find the blood." "That smell can 't be mistaken for anything else." "And vampire blood smells like no other." "A vampire was here." "And then there were two." "This is where the rogue was sired." "Poor guy." "Probably didn 't know what hit him." "Don't be afraid." "It's okay." "What have you done?" " What have you done to me?" " Don't be scared." "It's my wedding gift." "I freed you." "I freed you from death." "Tell me what you did to me." "I joined us forever." "[MICK PANTING]" "MICK:" "Why?" "No, you don't understand." "I've given you a gift." "The greatest gift I can give." "But I don't want this." "I love you." "I love you." "You made me into a monster." "I don't know." ""Monster" may be a little extreme." "Yeah?" "You didn't see the body." "I gotta play with Tiger." "Do you think Tiger would up for a little night putting?" "It was pure carnage, man." "Yeah, well, the blood lust can be pretty heavy when you're first turned." "And you can really lose it." "I know I did." "Damn, those were good times." "You know a newly turned vampire is like a feral kitten." "If you don't socialize it, it's never gonna be able to live with humans." "Well, if I were you, I'd pay a visit to the Cleaner." "And she knows where all the bodies are buried, so to speak." "MICK:" "I've never needed the Cleaner's services." "However, a lot of vampires don 't share my moral code." "But if vampires and humans are going to coexist  she's necessary to maintain the balance." "Mick St. John." "Don't tell me you need a cleanup." "No." "What happened here?" "THE CLEANER:" "Mr. Sloppy and Mr. Stupid over there got carried away offed their midnight snack." " These two?" " Accidents happen." "Everyone feels bad, but at least they called for cleanup." "Yes?" "Let's take a walk." "Anything unusual about your recent calls?" "We've been a little busier than usual." "Couple of coeds on the west side last week." "The week before that, gangbanger in Torrance." "What about downtown, First and Main?" "Oh, yeah, last night." "That was a false alarm." "What do you mean, false alarm?" "Vampire called about an accidental kill." "I hauled my guys all the way from the west side." "But when we got there, no vampire, no kill." "I didn't even get out of the car." "So did you get the name of the vamp who called it in?" "Come on, Mick." "You know how it is." "All calls are confidential." "That's why the system works." "Really?" "Because, uh, they left this behind." "I'm gonna find him eventually." "The reason there was no body there is because it got up and walked away." "A turning?" "Gone rogue." "If I don't find this guy there's gonna be a lot more cleaning up to do with no one to pick up the tab." "THE CLEANER:" "The vampire who called for cleanup, his name's Gerald Stovsky." "You find this sire call me." "[GASPS]" " Damn it, Josh." "Don't sneak up on me." " I didn't sneak." " Why are you so jumpy?" " I'm not jumpy." " Ow." "What is this about?" " Oh, nothing." "What time is it anyway?" "Uh, it's late." "And I know you usually forget to eat so I picked up some Chinese." "Kung Pao, extra spicy." " You're the best." " Still don't know how you can eat that." " Uh-oh." "I know that look." " No look." "It's just you've been so busy, we..." "We haven't talked about what's going on." "What is going on?" "Shooting a guy." "PI buddy." "Your new obsession." "Look, I know the last couple weeks have been crazy." "And I've been juggling a lot with the new job." "But it has nothing to do with you." "With us." "I promise." "MICK:" "I traced Stovsky  to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena." "It turned out he was a vampire and a rocket scientist." "Hi." "Hi." "Yours?" "My notes." "Oh, thank you." "I thought I'd lost them." " Corner of First and Main last night?" " Maybe." "I go by there every night." "There you go." "Were you alone?" "Yes." "You know, I think I've finally gotten used to my solitary existence." "Other vampires seem to avoid me, and my human colleagues are..." " Well, you know how that is." " Right." " Where were you coming from?" " The Empress Pavilion." "I love their barbecue pork buns." " But we don't eat." " I know." "But I sure used to love those buns." "Anyway, last night, after your pork bun, what did you eat?" "And by "what," I mean "who"?" " What?" " I found your pad in a pool of blood." "And since you're a vampire, I figured it's probably not a coincidence." "That wasrt my fault." "As I said, I was just walking along when suddenly, out of absolutely nowhere this car mows me over." " So you attacked the driver?" " Oh, no, no, no." "I was in no condition." "Fortunately, a Good Samaritan came by." " So you fed on him?" " Drained him, I'm afraid." "It was just an accident." "I don't ordinarily feed on humans." "I was just desperate, and I..." "Look, I called the Cleaner as soon as I got home." "She should've disposed of the body, so..." "Did you check if the guy was dead before you left him there?" "Yes, of course I checked." "I mean, he wasrt moving." "Why wouldn't he be dead, right?" "[COUGHING]" "You screwed up." "Some of your blood got into his system." "You didn't kill him, you turned him." "Then you left him there by himself not knowing what he was and not knowing what to do." " Now he's out there killing people." " Oh, my." "Oh, dear." " What do you remember about him?" " Nothing much." "It all happened so fast." "It was dark." "Ah, yes." "He said something about being a, um..." "A doctor." "No." "Yes, a doctor." "A doctor." " A doctor?" " Yes." "Are you sure?" "[SNARLING]" "What the...?" "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "[CAR ALARM CHIRPS]" "Everything's gonna be okay." "I'm a doctor." "[GRUNTING AND SCREAMING]" "Again, the details are sketchy." "But the police appear to be treating this as a homicide." "As of now, nobody knows who or what is responsible for the bloody crimes of the past few days." "This is Beth Turner for Buzzwire." "PHIL:" "And we're out." "Good job." "Think this is related to the other murder?" "There's only one way to find out." "Watch these people over here." "So, what happened to holding the story?" "I did hold it." "This is a different crime scene." "Or are you telling me you think this is related to the convenience-store murder?" " Initially, we thought this was a suicide." " And now?" "It was unlikely that he chewed out his own throat before he took his leap." "Was his blood missing?" "We still don't know if this is a serial." "Don't you go giving this psycho a nickname." "You name him, all the wack jobs come out of the woodwork." " People start panicking." " Carl." "Would I do that to you?" "Yes, you would." "BETH [ON PHONE]:" "This is Beth Turner for Buzzwire." "MICK:" "Watched your report." " You don't know "what" did this?" " I didn't say "vampire."" " Came awfully close." " By not saying it, I'm lying to people." "Well, keep it up." "Why do you think you can't trust me?" "I found the rogue vampire's blood on the corner of First and Main." "Use your police contacts to see if anybody has filed any kind of reports in the last couple of days." "You're a private investigator." "You don't have any contacts?" "It takes time to develop a contact." "Years." "People age, I don't." "Cops, especially, tend to pick up on those kind of details." "Kind of makes long-term relationships with humans difficult." "First and Main?" "I'll see what I can find out." "MICK:" "Part of me felt bad for the rogue." "It's not easy being a newbie." "Trust me." "CORALINE:" "There you are." "MICK:" "Get away from me." "[WHIMPERING]" "I know you're hurting." "I brought you something that'll make you feel better." "MICK:" "No." "Take her away." " You don't really want me to do that." " Yes, I do." "Make it stop." "Make it stop, please." "I can't." "It's done." "And it's gonna be so wonderful." " You gotta kill me." "I wanna die." " No, you don't." "You wanna live." "[WOMAN CONTINUES WHIMPERING]" "[GROWLS]" "What in the world?" "[SCREAMS]" "Jeff, what are you doing in there?" "I'm tired." "So tired." "Needed some sleep." "You were sleeping in the refrigerator?" "Cold." " It's nice." "Feels good." " Where are your clothes?" "I didn't need them in there." "Okay, honey." "Come inside." "You've been under a lot of stress taking on those extra shifts." " You're just exhausted." " Something's happening to me." " Something that I don't understand." " Jeff, please, honey." "Let me call the hospital." "You need help." " You're sick." " I'm not sick!" "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to scare you." "Everything's gonna be fine." " I love you." " I love you too." "I'm just so hungry." "BETH:" "I should be getting those police reports, but there's no cell coverage here." "I'll try later." "Chip?" "I got the ones without garlic." "I can eat garlic." "I mean, well, I could if I ate food." "But I don't eat food." " Just blood?" " Didrt we just cover that?" " Mm." " Mm." "Can you fly?" "Mm-hm." "Just like Superman." " Really?" " No." "Oh." "That'd be pretty cool, though, wouldn't it?" "Yeah." "So you know what you said earlier?" "Vampires really don't age?" " Really don't." " So how old are you?" " Not polite to ask people their age." " That's just women." "I know you must be older, but you look 30." "That's how old I was when I was turned." " So when I was 2..." " I looked 30." "When you're 82, I'm still gonna look 30." "So how old are you really?" "I'm gonna be 85 this November." "[GIGGLES]" " Immortality looks pretty good to me." " Not from where I'm sitting." "[PHONE CHIRPING]" "Here we go." "No police reports of a hit-and-run on First and Main." "No 911 hits either." "Parking Enforcement towed an abandoned car from that intersection registered to a Dr. Jeffrey Pollock." "2810 Hillside." "And "wait in the car" means...?" "Yeah, because that worked out so well last time." "What's that smell?" "Blood." "Stay close." "Is she dead?" " Maybe she's not dead." " She's dead." " There's no heartbeat." " You can tell that from here?" " Is she going to turn into a vampire too?" " No." "He didn't turn her." "He just murdered her." "We need to figure out where he's gone." "With every kill, Pollock becomes more dangerous." "His blood lust will only get worse." "It was his wife." "He killed his own wife." "They look so happy." "You must've had a normal life before you became a vampire." "A job, friends, family." "I did." "Once I was turned, I became a danger to them all." "I had to give them up." "Were you married?" " Once." " What happened?" "She died." " Did you try and turn her into a...?" " She's dead." "Period." "Okay." "Sorry." "You're not, trust me." " He works at Sacred Angels Hospital." " You think he'd feed on his patients?" "New vampires crave blood." "Where better to find it than a hospital?" "[DOOR SLAMS]" "[WHISPERING] He's back." "[GUN CLICKS]" " Stay here." "Stay." " Okay." "You didn't...?" "It was her husband." "The vampire you turned." "Are you tracking him?" "After you left, I realized I had to make things right." "I had to take the poor vampire under my tutelage." "Help him through the transition." "You're too late, Gerald." "He's out of control." " No, he's just confused." " He's not confused, he's feral." "He's killed three people already." "He has to be put down." "[GRUNTS]" "I'm sorry." "I wasrt completely honest with you." "I did remember the doctor's license plate." "I am good with numbers, after all." "Please understand, I was never able to sire before." "This mistake has given me something I've never had." "A son." "A companion." "I won't let you take him from me." "[GASPS]" "[GROANS]" "[DOOR SQUEAKS AND BANGS]" "Mick?" "You still here?" "[GASPS]" "Oh, my God." "Mick." "Oh." "Mick." "Mick." "[GASPS]" "MICK:" "Take it out." " Oh, my God." "You're alive." " Wait, what'd you say?" " The stake, take it out." "Okay." "[GULPS]" "Maybe it's like glass." " You're supposed to wait..." " Take it out." "Okay." "[GROANING]" "Ouch." "Thanks." "I'll take that." "I thought stakes were supposed to kill vampires." "No, they only paralyze us." " Are you gonna be okay?" " I heal fast." " Did Pollock do this to you?" " No." "It was his sire." "We have to get to the hospital." "Pollock." "You missed it, man." "I didn't know you were working tonight." " Missed what?" " Car wreck." "Driver's radial artery was severed." "Yeah, I mean, look at this." "DOCTOR 1:" "I have never seen that much blood." " How much blood was there?" " What'd I just say?" "A lot." "DOCTOR 2:" "Lucky guy." "You were probably playing golf." "I got a patient down in 304 I need to check up on." " Can you cover the floor?" " Yeah, sure." "[EQUIPMENT BEEPING]" "Dr. Pollock." "Do I know you?" "We need to talk." "It's important." "Can't right now." "I'm on call." "WOMAN:" "Ma'am?" "Sir?" " Hey, you seen Dr. Pollock tonight?" " Yeah, he's up on 4." "You can't go up there." " You're not my doctor." " I'm covering for Dr. Duffy tonight." "I'm gonna need to take a little blood." " Doctor, I need to speak with you." " Who are you?" " What do you want?" " I'm here to help you." " I'm your friend." " I don't need any friends." "Doctor, please." "[SNARLING]" "I can't stop him." "He's insane." "You created a killer vampire and just left him?" "What's wrong with you?" "Gerald Stovsky." "We need to talk." "Hey." "Back away." "Now." "I can smell you." "You're like me." " I'm nothing like you." " Yeah, you are." "We're vampires, aren't we?" "The strength, the speed, the blood." "I figured it out." " You need to come with me right now." " I'm not going anywhere." "Can't you smell how delicious it is?" " You don't have to kill to survive." " I like killing." "Come on." "I'll share." "There's enough blood here for both of us and they restock every day." "You can't feed here." "We have rules." "[CHUCKLING]" "There are no rules." "I'm top of the food chain." "These are people." "They're human beings." "You used to be a human." "Remember?" "Well, not anymore." "[ROARS]" "[GRUNTING AND ROARING]" "I understand now." "I'll stop killing." "I'll go back to my old life." "You can't." "You destroyed it." "Mick." "Some woman came and took Gerald away." "Pollock?" "You found him?" " And staked him." " Should we call the police?" "Suggestions like that are why you shouldn't be here." "You said a stake doesn't kill a vampire, it only paralyzes him." " What should we do?" " Not "we." Me." "You can't just kill him." "He's already dead." " After all this?" " No, Beth, okay?" "No." "JOSEF:" "The incinerator?" "Damn." "Remind me to never piss you off." " I didn't have a choice." " Well, like I'm judging you." "I would've done the same thing, except I would've enjoyed it more." "Hm." "You know, after all these years, I still don't understand you." "The bad guy was caught." "Justice was served." " You're sitting there like someone died." " Actually, four people died." "It was collateral damage for a greater good." "I mean, Pollock was a danger to all of us." " Humans and vampires." " I could've been like Pollock." "If Coraline had let me go after she turned me." "If she hadrt taught me how to survive as a vampire." "You're saying something good about the ex?" "No." "But you're still thinking about her." "I'll tell you something I've learned in my 400 years." "Two Buddhist monks are walking down a road and they see a woman trying to cross a stream." "The first monk picks her up, carries her across." "She says thanks, and they go their separate ways." "But the second monk is spitting mad." "After a couple more miles, the second monk speaks up, tells the first monk:" ""You violated the rules of our order when you carried that woman across the stream. " And the first monk replied:" ""I may have carried her across that stream but you've been carrying her ever since."" "I have?" "Yeah." "Stop carrying Coraline around, Mick." "If you can't change the past then you can't let it stop you from going forward." "I know." "I know." "MICK:" "When you're asleep, you should be unconscious  and not even know there is anyone next to you." "But somehow you do." "More than ever." " Hey." " Mick." " Do you wanna come in?" " No." "I mean..." "Um..." "You wanna know how I became a vampire?" "Yes." " Okay." "I told you I was married, right?" " Uh-huh." "Well, she was a vampire." "I didn't know." "And on our wedding night, she turned me." "I went to bed a happily married man, and I woke up a monster." " You're not a monster." " Believe me, I was." "You must find it hard to trust anyone now." "You asked me if I trusted you." "You're the first human that I've told any of this to." "About who I am and what I am." "So, yeah." "I trust you." "Subtitles by SDI Media Group" "[ENGLISH SDH]"
