Dayday: What's with the black clothes?
Emma: I think they look cool. Maybe they're artists. Or foreign diplomats.
Dayday: Or maybe they got dressed in the dark and don't know they look stupid. (edit) Mr. Braun: (to Lex) You've just been invited over by our new guests.
Mrs. Braun: Oh, you were wise to come to this country. There is so much more fresh blood here.
Mr. Braun: And nobody believes that the child could be a vampire! (edit) Dayday: They work at a hospital. That's why they have all the blood.
Emma: And how was I supposed to know that?
Dayday: (mocking Emma) "We better get them before they get us, Dayday! Ooh, I'm so scared!"
Emma: All right, I made a mistake!
Dayday: I'm never gonna let you forget this. (edit) David: So she's gonna go over there in the middle of the night? Adios, Emma.
Eric: But they might not be vampires.
Kristen: Then why are all those people getting sick?
Kiki: Yeah, it's like blood being sucked from their necks! I love it! (edit) Emma: Look where these people came from. Here. Ukraine. That's right in the middle of all those creepy places--Romania, Bulgaria, TRANSYLVANIA. And what about all those people? They're all getting sick! Weak and pale, and they all have bandages on their necks! There's only one explanation.
Dayday: And what's that?
Emma: Our neighbors are vampires.
Dayday: Ugh, I'm dreaming! (edit)
Emma: I think they look cool. Maybe they're artists. Or foreign diplomats.

Dayday: And what's that?
Emma: Our neighbors are vampires.
Dayday: Ugh, I'm dreaming! (edit)
This is one of the many episodes to feature alliteration in it's title ("Nightly Neighbors").
(edit)
Goof: When Emma was hiding, nearly a third of her body was showing, yet Mr. Braun did not see her.
(edit)
Goof: When Emma dumps the popcorn on DayDay's head, some lands on his shoulder, but when the camera changes angles it's gone.
(edit)
During the first scene of the story, Dayday can be seen watching the classic 1960's movie Night of the Living Dead.
(edit)
Goof: Lex walks past a mirror in Dayday's house and we see his reflection, but it is later revealed that Lex is a vampire. Therefore, he should not have had a reflection in the mirror.
