Love at First Bite Page #5

- No.

I thought I ought to get a couple extra,

so the others wouldn't get upset.

They are upset. That's why they're in here.

That's right.

Listen, it's cool. Everything is cool.

I talked to your answering service

and told them the doctor is on vacation.

Marry me.

Jeff, please.

I've been thinking. We should get married.

You always said I don't wanna get married.

You do. I was gonna tell you Tuesday,

when you came into the office.

I'm getting the house, Largemont,

22 minutes from midtown.

Good schools. No tennis court,

but there's room for one.

We'll love it there.

Jeffery, please.

A dog, you've always wanted one.

I found one.

She's not spayed. I wanted to talk

about it first. Though I'm not Catholic...

Jeffery, you're getting hysterical!

I know, I'm sorry.

Okay. Cindy...

get me out of here quickly.

You know I'm not insane.

All right.

It's all been arranged.

But you've got to promise me to be good.

No more carrying on!

No, I'll be good.

I'll be better than good. I'll be perfect.

- No more fires?

- No.

- No more possessive tantrums?

- No.

No more fires.

I promise. No more fires.

Promise?

Okay, you'll be out of here in no time.

Don't worry. Go back to your drawing.

Visiting hours will be over

in 15 minutes, please.

Attention. Visiting hours will be over

in 15 minutes, please.

You did real well, Renfield.

Thank you, master.

A combination getaway car

and mobile home.

When we get inside,

I want you to play it real cold.

I believe that's "real cool," master.

Cool. Yeah.

We're going to make a hoist.

- Heist.

- Heist.

I'm sorry, we're closed.

We've come to make a withdrawal.

We have a very sick man in the car

who needs blood desperately.

That's a hearse!

So maybe we're a bit late.

I told you, we're closed.

The only thing closed...

are your eyes.

Fill out these cards and follow me.

What type are you?

Ruthless.

We didn't come to give. We came to take.

Give us all your blood

in small, unmarked bills.

Master, that's "bottles."

Bottles.

Of course. Forgive me.

We are new at this.

If you two freaks don't get out of here...

I am going to scream my head off.

If you scream loudly, they'll think

you are frightened by a mouse.

Master, we hit the jackpot!

Only in America.

Plastic disposable bodies.

It's like a supermarket.

Master, it'll be wonderful at the reception

when you marry Miss Cindy.

How they danced

on the night that they bled

I propose a toast.

Here's blood in your eye.

Close your eyes and hope to die.

Are you sure your eyes are closed?

Open them now.

Vladimir, that's lovely.

What is that?

A blood...

ruby.

And what are those little birds?

It's nothing. A creature of the night. It flies.

Must have been very expensive.

How did you afford it?

I put a little away for a very long time.

What's wrong? You seem so sad.

I don't know.

I think I love you, Vladimir.

And part of me

still wants to be independent.

Part of me wants to be taken care of.

And part of me would like to be

a wife and a mother.

Part of me still thinks

I am just, like, an expensive whore...

who'd sell anything from dog food

to mouthwash for $1,000 a day.

Oh, God!

I'm so confused.

You were born in the wrong time,

Cindy Sondheim.

In the other age,

things were simpler, less complicated.

Do you remember how many women had

nervous breakdowns in the 14th century?

- No.

- Three.

Why do you treat me so well, Vladimir?

Without this face that I wake up every

morning looking for the first wrinkle...

I'm nothing.

Do you think of me as special?

Yes, of course.

Then how can you think of yourself

as nothing if I love you?

Besides...

I can arrange it...

so you never have to look in a mirror again.

I can arrange it so you can.

The second way to kill a vampire, Count.

Three silver bullets through the heart.

Jeffery!

No, Rosenberg.

That is a werewolf.

A werewolf. Really? Are you sure?

No harm done. The man's all right.

This was for a werewolf.

No problem. Calm down. Take it easy.

I'm a doctor and I know what I'm doing.

He's all right. He's even got a little color.

Not to worry, my dear.

It's a small annoyance.

Who are you?

Do you know, whenever I'm with you, I see...

Places...

in my eyes...

that you've only seen in dreams.

Yes.

They've not been dreams.

Nor do they ever have to be again.

It's just incredible.

I finally know what I want.

What about your career?

I don't know.

Sometimes I think a career to a woman

is kind of like...

fooling around to a man.

I mean, it's a lot of fun.

Till the right person comes along.

What about Rosenberg?

Jeffery.

He just doesn't make me feel

the way you make me feel.

What are you doing?

What does it feel like I'm doing?

Feels so cold.

Finally after 712 years...

to have someone bite me again.

You can see him now.

Physical therapist,

please report to Room 264.

Hi, Doc.

Remember me?

"All of the victims had two puncture marks

on their necks.

"But no one could remember

how it happened."

Absolutely! Dracula.

"Nothing was stolen

and no one was sexually molested.

"Turn to Page 46."

Thirty years in the force,

never cracked a big one.

And now here's my big chance.

I have to go after a vampire.

Why couldn't it have been a drug bust?

Although no one has ever

gone after a vampire before.

No one has ever tried.

Except me.

So, after four victims

and the blood bank robbery...

Page 23, you finally believe me.

I don't know what to believe, Doc.

A lot of funny things

going down in this city.

Not funny, Lieutenant!

Horrible. Messy. Unspeakable.

Page 38.

Come on, Ferguson.

Help me turn to Page 46.

I'll do more than that, Doc.

I'm going to get you out of here. Come on.

Leave everything to me.

Oh, my God!

I've lost her forever. He's drained

all the blood out of her. We're too late.

Jeffery, will you calm down?

This is an herbal mask...

you've seen me wear it a million times.

Herbal mask?

Yes. But you're right, you're too late.

We're in love. Now get out of here.

You call this love? Look at this.

Two sets of bites.

I don't know. It looks awfully small to me.

You're sure that's not prickly heat?

We've still got time to save her.

Come on, I know he's in there.

- No!

- Get out of here.

We can't go in without a search warrant.

You know the law.

If we don't, her immortal soul

will be lost forever.

And if we do, I lose my pension.

Come on. I know a friendly judge.

Oh, Jeffery.

Listen, we're getting married next week.

I'm registered at Bloomingdale's.

I'm okay with crystal but I'm a little short

on china and silverware.

You get nothing from me!

Say what?

A search warrant, Your Honor.

We need a search warrant right now.

There's been a rash of bat bites in the city.

Maybe you've read about it.

A blood bank robbery. And this girl has

these two red holes in her neck.

We have reason to believe

this is the work of a vampire.

A vampire.

That's right. That's why we need

the warrant right now.
