""Serving 20% blood"" "CHIEF HEMATOLOGIST EDWARD DALTON" " APPROVED" "All the material in this meeting is classified" "Commissioner?" "Death row inmate 4705-B was a vampire selected for a month long study on the effects of blood deprivation." "What?" "A complete lack of human blood over this period resulted in a massive deterioration of the frontal lobe." "First signs of physical deformities began with elongated ears." "Mental functions such as logic, emotion, most parts of speech then terminated much faster than you or your team originally speculated, Dr. Dalton." "Out on the streets these creatures, these subsiders, are becoming a real problem." "Gentlemen, we are starving." "Our latest statistics show that less than 5% of the human population remains." "What we're talking about is the extinction of the human race." "What we're talking about is only having enough blood to sustain our population until the end of the month." "If a blood substitute is not found immediately this will happen to all of us." "Edward?" "Enjoy your coffee, Sir." "Did I ever tell you about my daughter Alison?" "In early 2008 I was diagnosed with Sarcoma." "The shock of finding out I had cancer was one thing, but having to tell my daughter..." "She was devastated." "I prayed for a miracle, but was realistic." "And then the world changed." "My prayers were answered." "Immortality gave me my cure." "My daughter and I now had all the time in the world." "But she saw this evolution as a disease, worse than any cancer." "She refused to turn." "I was a monster to her." "She ran, like so many did." "No, we are blessed, Edward." "Blessed." "And you have to stare death in the face to truly know that." "We are not ready yet, Mr. Bromley." "Not a coffee drinker?" "Not really." "You pity the humans, don't you?" "Well, me too." "Me too." "These are desperate times, Edward." "We must start testing the blood substitute." "It is the only way to help the human race." "He wants us to move ahead again, doesn't he?" "Yeah." "Okay."

"You know the Vernon Park Cemetery was raided by a bunch of kids last night." "They dug up a dozen graves thinking they'd find some human blood." "It's nuts out there." "Now private, you may feel a slight increase in body temperature." "That's just the Hembicillin entering your system, it's to be expected." "Yes, Sir." " How do you feel?" " No change, Sir." "6 degree increase." "Slightly more accelerated than anticipated but... you're fine." "68 degrees and holding." "Okay." " Okay, how do you feel?" " I feel fine, Si..." "Shit!" "20 cc of Epimone!"

"We believe they may be humans, Sir." "Did you see where they went?" "I think they went that way." "You take care, Sir." "Thank you." " Are you okay?" " Yeah." "See you around."

"I don't touch human blood." "You don't touch human blood." "You work for a company that uses humans like fuckin' cattle." "Don't tell me how to live my life, little brother." "Then don't act all high and mighty, big brother." "Look Ed, your company working on some type of fake blood, that's one thing, but we all know that their money comes from farming humans." "Are we going to pick up from exactly where we left off?" "I don't hunt humans." "That is your job." "I find them." "You farm them." "All right." "Well..." " Let's just dump this shit." " Nothing changes, does it?" "Does it?" "You still don't get why I joined." "What happens... when there isn't a single drop left?" "When there isn't a single human?" "A single anything?" "We will always find more." "A blood substitute means the end of human hunting." "Fake blood." "Doesn't mean the end of shit."

"Security alert:" "Backdoor ajar." "Hi." "Did you come to finish me off?" "We need your help." "We've been searching for vampires we can trust." "Trust?" "You're a blood doctor." "You can help us."

"Many experts believe that the company will no longer be able to handle the national blood demand." "The FDA spokesperson confirmed yesterday..." "How are you feeling, Edward?" "The break-in must have been very traumatic." "I'm fine." "Thank you." "Now, these attacks on everyday citizens are cause for great concern." "All the more reason to push forward, wouldn't you say?" "I'd just like your guarantee that a substitute would replace our need for a human supply, Sir." "Well, it's important that we allow the human race time to repopulate." "That's not exactly what I asked." "The majority of the population will be content with a blood substitute, yes." "But there will always be those who are willing to pay a little extra for the real thing." "Come on, Edward." "We have to be realistic." "If we don't cater to all markets, someone else will." "How much do you think they'd be willing to pay for your daughter?" "He's waiting for you." "UV Warning." "Trees are the oldest living things on earth." "Did you know that?" "They say, some are over four thousand years old." "Someday, though... this tree will die." "And so will you." "Maybe you won't die of old age like her." "But the thing you're holding on to, that last breath of humanity, will vanish as soon as the blood does." "What do you want?" "Same thing you do." "A future." "I was like you once." "But not no more." "Lionel Cormac." "My friends call me Elvis." "I ain't gonna bite." " Elvis?" " Yeah, you know like..." "Lord almighty, I feel my temperature rising." "Higher higher." "It's burning through to my soul." "Feel that?" "Hadn't been beating for nine years." "Seems impossible, don't it?" "It is impossible." "So is walking around without a pulse." "But here you are." "How did you do it?" "Audrey?" " Put the gun down." " Frankie?" " Put the gun down!" " Frankie, what the..." "What the hell are you doing?" " Move away from him." " Put the gun down!" "Don't make things worse." " Stop pointing the gun!" " Move away from them!" " Frankie!" " This is serious shit, Ed." "They can put you away for a long time." "Let's go." "Motherfuckers!" "Come on, get in my car!" "Shit!" "UV warning." "Got it!" ""SIGNAL LOST"" " I can't...!" "Move!" "Hang on." "Everybody okay?" "Yeah." "Motherfuckers." "I loved that car." "You did the right thing." "That was my brother." "Come on." "Never been good at science, Doc." "Cars have always been my thing." "Daylight modifications are my specialty." "Or used to be." "Custom cameras, sun shields, that kind of thing." "My garage was one of the first in town to start doing them." "I had a shop right near your place." "Day time drivin' man, nothin' beats it." "No traffic, no cops." "But if you ain't careful you can get yourself one hell of a sunburn." "You can only go on so long without blood before it messes with your head." "It's amazing how quickly your whole world can change." "Ain't it, Doc?" "We need to recreate this." "Safely." "That's why we need you." "The Sun?" "You're human because of the Sun?" "Hurt like hell." "Please, have a seat." "Do you know who I am?" "My brother's mentioned you before, Sir." "You did the right thing reporting his actions." "You want to continue to do the right thing, don't you son?" "I will do whatever is asked of me, Sir." "Edward is a valuable member of our team, and an essential part of all our futures." "All we wish, is for him to continue with his work." "If he returns immediately, no formal charges will be laid." "I don't know what you think I can do, Sir." "Do you like being a vampire, son?" "Yes, Sir." "Why?" "I mean, your brother clearly disapproves." "I wonder if it's a common trait in your family." "I'm good at this." "I was never very good at being human, Sir." "And I'm not my brother." "Well..." "Good." "Frankie." "Every couple of weeks we head out, to search for others." "It's getting harder and harder to find anybody." "I only managed to pick up three, when you drove us off the road." "Stop the car!" "When was the last time you drank human blood?" "What's the matter?" "I'm fine." "Oh." "You... don't..." "We need you focused." " No!" "No, I'm not..." " She ain't asking, Doc." "Where we're going..." "I can't afford to worry about you, around the others." "Well it's about god damn time." "Stop worrying, you'll live longer." "Travis, this is Ed." "Ed!" "Well ain't this nothing." "Usually when there's a vampire around," "I'm the one shitting my pants." "You better be worth the risk, man." "Jar's made contact with the largest human group we've found in a long time." "And he's going to bring them back here." "I set up more cots in the cellar." "We'll stay in radio contact and keep you updated." "Good luck." "You too." "Is this place safe?" "Being human in a world full of vampires is about as safe as bare backing a 5$ whore." "This is home, Doc." "But none of us are safe." "This vineyard belonged to my parents." "They always wanted me to run it someday, but, at the time I was more interested in college." "Not long after the outbreak I came back." "It seemed like a good place to hide." "I owe that girl my life." "She found me after I was shaked-n-baked and brought me here." "I want you to meet someone." "Ed, this is senator Wes Turner." " Hey." "You made it." " Yeah." "Barely." " More damn vampires." " Back off, Colin." "They're trying to help." "Hey." "Being a vampire and a politician, it can be hard to make friends." "Wes knows enough vampires in office that want this cure." "And more importantly, will use it for the right reasons." "We want to rebuild the human race." "But a way back can be a dangerous thing, in the wrong hands." "We're an endangered species, Doc." "It's time we changed all that." "The escalating global blood crisis has seen prices skyrocket over the past week." "Experts believe that this will make blood unobtainable to many citizens across the country, and create what could only be described asa subsiderepidemic." "Excuse me." "This is not what I asked for." "Read the sign, Sir." "We're now only permitted to serve 5% blood with every coffee." "I don't care what the signs says." "Just put some more fucking blood in my coffee." "I can't." "Move!" "We've tested burning extracted blood under UV light" "It always remains infected." "How could yours possibly be human?" "You tell me, Doc." "What did it feel like when the sun hit your body?" "What do you mean what did it feel like?" "I felt like a god-damned piece of fried chicken." "Can you remember anything specific about it?" "Anything at all." "Well I remember when the sunlight hit me." "It was like a bolt of lightning kick-started my heart." "It was like... someone let the air back in the room." "Maybe the only way to treat the blood is inside the body." "We need to control a daylight burn." " Pickup was successful." " That's great Jarvis!" "Total count is 15." "We'll stay clear of the interstates, so it might take us a while to get back." "Be safe." "You okay?" "They may be frightened of you, but... none of them doubt that you can help us." "I can't even remember what it's like to be human." "Are you afraid to die?" "Yeah." "Most of us are too scared of death to think of it as an option." "I guess that's why so many turned." "How did it happen to you?" "I was betrayed." "My brother..." "What are these?" "Wine fermentation tanks." "Fermentation." " That's airtight, right?" " Yeah, that's right." " What's that?" " It's an extraction fan." "Pulls air out of the tank to stop the wine from oxidizing." "Okay, perfect." "We use that to put out the fire." "How far is it to the winery, Jarvis?" "It's about two hours from here." "So, have you been doing this for long?" "Picking up humans, giving them a home." "Since the beginning." "There's not many of us left now." "How long have you been running?" "Most of us have been on the run together for years." "I've never seen it this bad." "What made you come all the way out here?" "It's safer." "There's lots of sun, there's not a lot of shade." "Not much food either, hmm?" "Yeah." "Thanks." "Oh shit!" "Dammit!" "Shit!" "Tranq dart!" "Move!" "Move!" "Oh shit!" "Move." "Move!" "Go go go!" "Keep firing." "Fire!" "Fire!" "Can anyone hear me?" "Hello?" "Is anyone there?" "We hear you, who is this?" "They found us." "They're everywhere." "Where are you?" "Got another." "Are you still there?" "It's completely secluded." "It should be the safest place for us to regroup." "How long will it take to get there?" "If we stay off the main highways and follow the trails along the Marshall River we should reach my cabin before nightfall." "Okay." " You be careful." " You too." "Come on, Ed." "We gotta go." " I can't." " They'll be here soon." "The sun is about to come up, we may never get a chance to set up this experiment again, I've gotta do it." " That thing could kill you." " I'm already dead." "Fuck it." "I do love a good BBQ." "You don't need that." "You're safe here, I promise." "Where are my friends?" "Don't hurt them." "Please!" "You look so beautiful." "You've grown up so much." "Dad, please." "I'm so happy to see you." "I never thought I'd see you again, sweetheart." "You're safe now." "You're safe." "But your friends..." "There's nothing I can do, I'm sorry." "You're not sorry." "Ally, let me help you, please!" "Are you sure you're ready to do this?" "Yeah." "What could go wrong?" "You feel so warm." "Ready, Doc?" " Ready." " Let's do it, Aud." "Okay, on my count." "3-2-1-Now!" "Ed?" "I'm alright." "He's okay, Aud." " Let's do it again." " Again, let's do it again!" "3-2-1-Now!" "You okay?" "Ed?" " Yeah." "Again." " He's fine!" "3-2-1-Now!" "Ed!" "Lord almighty." "Mr. Dalton." "How is the shoulder, son?" "It's healing quickly." "How about yourself, Sir?" "Oh, I'll survive." "You know..." "During the civil war, General Sherman said:" ""I'm tired and sick of war"" ""It's glory is all moonshine"" ""War is hell."" "Less than 50 humans have been captured the last week." "Some believe hell may well be coming." "With dedicated soldiers like yourself, we can prevent that from happening." "Frankie..." "I need you to do something for me." "Get away from me!" "You don't need to be scared of me." "Stay away!" "Is this what you want?" "To live in fear?" "See, I can help you." "Make you one of us." " Free." " No" "You can live forever." "Fuck you." "Welcome back." ""FROM THE ASHES SPRINGS NEW LIFE"" "She won't drink her blood ration, Sir." "Okay." "Ally." "Baby." "Oh, Ally." "What are you doing?" "That'll poison you." "Is this what you wanted?" " Sweetheart, stop that." " Is this what you wanted?" "No." "No." "You did this." " You did this." " No." "No." "You did this." "Military forces have been ordered to most major cities around the country in a bid to contain what is now being described as the subsider epidemic." "Military leaders have announced they will take a strict no tolerance approach to the crisis." "An order to commence the immediate round-up and capture of all Class 4 blood-deprived citizens has been issued." "Are we close?" "The Senator's cabin should be just up ahead." "It's all gone." "Everything." "We'll start again." "We can't keep running." "I know someone who can help." "With the current military round-up in full effect it's likely we will continue to see a decreased subsider presence on our streets." "But the question has been asked: "Now what?"" "Our families are starving." "We can't afford to feed these creatures, too." "I know it might be wrong but, these things, they've got to go." "Die." "Yeah." "Thank you." "I know." "I know." "Well, I couldn't have done it without you." "Shit." "I'll call you back." "You're really human." "This is unbelievable." " Hold it." "I'm sorry." "Who are you?" "We're the folks with the crossbows." "It's a dangerous time, Chris." "We can´t be too careful." "Alright?" "Sit down, please." "Ed, it's me." "After the 6 years we've spent working together." "You know the sacrifices I've made." "I've been with you 100% of the way." " Always." " I know." "Alright, listen." "We've got something better than a blood substitute." "We've got a cure." "And I can repeat the procedure, but I'm gonna need your help." "This is a chance to change everything." "How did you do it?" "Are you gonna answer that?" "Hello." "No." "Yeah." "Hold on." "Ex-wife." "It's messy." "Can you give me a second?" "Yeah." "No." "We didn't agree on that, so..." "What are you talking about?" "That's all?" "No." "I don't remember agreeing to this..." "This is one fucking ugly house." "Where are you going?" "Check on your friend." "Go." "Go." "If they find us, we can't help her." "Put it down." "I don't believe it." "Don't come any closer." "Frankie, I found a cure." "Alright?" "I can change you back." "No." " Put it down, kid." " No." "It's alright." "Frankie, it's alright." "Frankie, it's not too late." "Do you know why I turned you, Ed?" "You used to say to me that you'd rather die than be like the rest of us." "I didn't turn you because it was convenient, or because of some selfish need for blood." "I turned you because... you would've died if I didn't." "I couldn't lose you, Ed." "I'm fucked up bad." "I can get you out of here." "We're not going anywhere without Audrey." " The woman?" " Yes, the woman." "You'll never get to her." "You wanna help us?" "Please." "Okay." "Okay." "God damn it." "Edward." "You've got a tan." "It suits you." "You know, Edward." "Her blood has a scent that no substitute could ever replace." "Fear." "I don't wanna die." "I can't do this... being human." "Isn't that what you wanted?" "I don't wanna be afraid." "I can never be free like this, I see that now." "Please." "Help me." "What is it that you want?" "Turn us both." "Let us leave." "And I'll show you a way to repopulate your entire human supply." "What the hell are you doing?" "And you would give me this cure?" "Yes." "As long as you allow her to go free, too." "No." "She doesn't sound that interested in your proposition, Edward." "In time she'll come to understand." "Will she?" "Thank you." "You know, I won't deny that things have gotten progressively worse during your absence." "The public, the military;" "Everyone seemed starving." "Our blood supplies are well, gone." "Ed." "I myself was feeling the effects of deprivation." "But as of yesterday it's all a thing of the past." "You know, I always thought it would be you that would come up with a stable substitute." "Not Christopher." "But, I guess I was wrong." "Look." "We go into mass production in two days." "It's never been about a cure." "It's about repeat business." "And besides... what's to cure?" "So you see, Edward." "I don't need you anymore." "Of course you couldn't make it as a human." "You're weak." "The truth is:" "You've always been a coward." "What did it feel like to turn your own daughter?" "Oh, you didn't do it, did you?" "You couldn't, could you?" "You had my brother do it for you." "So who's the fucking coward?" "Your blood." "What have you done to me?" "Vampires think they own this world." "That the humans have to hide from them." "That ain't true." "Every day, the sun comes up." "And every day the vamps have to hide." "Vampires can never survive." "That's the truth." "Elvis Presley once said:" ""Truth is like the sun." "you can shut it out for a time" "but it ain't going away"." "Mr. Bromley." "Open up." "Treated vampire blood." "That's the cure." "Welcome back to humanity." "Now you get to die." "Move." "Move." "Let's go." "Don't do this." "There's a cure." "Don't do this." "Run." "Ed." "They can't be the cure." "I can't let you do it." "I'm sorry." "We have a cure." "We can change you back." "It's not too late."
