Moonlight

(in Jerry Drake's office, Mick picks up the sword lying on the stand) Jerry Drake: You don't want to touch that. Mick: This feels real! Is this from that, um, Sword and Sandals thing that you did?

Mick: (voiceover) Unfortunately, all that fresh blood in the air...sometimes makes it hard to distinguish who's still here. (Shepherd attacks from the shadows)

Shepherd: Come on, two vampires and two lovely ladies-- in my day, we called that a party. Mick: Yeah, well, I outgrew that phase.

(Beth and Audrey are discussing her kidnapping) Audrey: Is that what you did when you said you learned to block out what happened to you? Beth: Um sort of but I…I also had something to grab on to. Someone…the man who saved me, he was fearless. It was terrifying. But as long as I was in his arms, I knew I was safe.

Jerry Drake: So, Mr. St. John, my time is money. I know a lot of people say that, but I actually had my accountant run the numbers. (Looks at his watch) You're ten grand in the hole. Mick: Wow and me without my checkbook.

(Mick is interrogating Shepherd's cult member in Beth's bathtub) Shepherd's family member: I have rights! Mick: You broke into a private home. I have the right to shoot you. I'm still considering that option!

Beth: I was kidnapped when I was 4. I don't remember much, not faces. But I-I do have dreams…and, uh, flashes. Sometimes they can seem very real. Audrey: So you keep reliving your past? Beth: More like I block it out. It's the only way I can keep sane.

Mick: If you guys get hungry— Beth: (interrupting him) We'll order in.

Beth: (about Mick letting Audrey stay with Beth at his place) This is really nice of you. Mick: Mi casa, su casa. That's Spanish, by the way, for "Keep her out of my stuff."

Beth: (to Mick) It's ironic. Audrey's demon was in prison and she never felt safe. The police never found the woman who took me, but somehow I always felt safe.

Mick: (Voice over) A lot of those lost souls took Shepherd's call for blood seriously. Family values at its worst.

Mick: (Voice over) When most guys have house guests, the check list is obvious: anything moldy in the fridge, any private magazines left out….. For me it is a little more complicated (As Mick washed out a glass he used to drink blood)

Mick: (Voice over) The priest converted him alright, drained him in confession and turned him in final prayer.

Mick: (Voice over) Given the complex history of religion and vampires; a church is not where you'd expect a vamp to find sanctuary.

Mick: (voiceover) To humans, blood just smells coppery, like a jar of pennies. But to a vamp, it's full of smells. The fear felt when it was shed...and the joy of the one who shed it.

Beth: I know who saved me when I was a little girl. Mick: I think you've known for a while. Beth: Maybe I have. Mick: What else do you know? Beth: That he had to kill a woman he cared about. Mick: Maybe he would have done it anyway. Beth: Maybe. But that night he did it to save me. Mick: How was I supposed to tell you?

Beth: I just wished ... I just wished he'd talked to me. Mick: First I murder my wife, and then I stalk you. It just gets better and better huh? Beth: No. I could have lived my life in fear. But somehow I always felt safe. Now I know why. Mick: Now you know why it can never work. Beth: All I know is, ever since I met you, I've stopped using the word "never".

Shepherd: (final words before his execution) Power can lead a man down a dangerous path. It can blind him to things like reason, kindness, mercy. I've had many years to think about my actions, my choices, things I've done. I don't regret a bit of it. I seek no forgiveness. Just the blood of those who crossed me...and you know who you are. I will live on...and you...will die screaming my name.

Mick: You have every right to be angry. Beth: I'm not angry. I found my guardian angel.

Shepherd: I thought you were dead. Mick: Looks like neither one of us is dying easy.

Shepherd: You don't seem surprised to see me alive. Beth: I know what you are. Shepherd: If you know what I am, why are you fighting when you should be begging?

Beth: So how do you start a manhunt for a dead man? Mick: You clarify the dead part.
