0:00:14 > 0:00:17Focus your energy.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Hold it...
0:00:20 > 0:00:23Let it circulate through every nerve
0:00:23 > 0:00:24and channel.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29Now push that power outwards...
0:00:29 > 0:00:31towards the Book.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37That's it! Well done, Vladdy!
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Keep going.
0:00:43 > 0:00:47At last we'll see how you lead us into the future.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Two fingers? That's it?!
0:00:54 > 0:00:58If you were any good at your job,
0:00:58 > 0:01:01this pile of bones would have given up weeks ago.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Vladdy would be commanding a glorious vampire army
0:01:05 > 0:01:08and I would be out of this stinking breather-hole
0:01:08 > 0:01:11and in a luxury castle in Surrey.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Surrey?
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Just a little pad I've had my eye on for a while.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19And if it wasn't for this buffoon,
0:01:19 > 0:01:23I'd be picking out a portcullis by now.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Do better.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Or you'll answer to me.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41I'm sorry.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44He's right. You should have opened the Book by now.
0:01:44 > 0:01:50You've got the raw power, I can sense it. Something's distracting you.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51What?
0:01:51 > 0:01:54No, he didn't. He said "kismet".
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Oh, er...global warming.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02Yeah, you know. All the little polar bears and penguins and...
0:02:08 > 0:02:09..er...
0:02:12 > 0:02:14..ice...
0:02:17 > 0:02:21All right, let's take a break.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25We'll do vertical flying at eight.
0:03:07 > 0:03:08Hi.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Hi.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13- Homework?- Yeah. Romeo and Juliet.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Pretty stupid story, right?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21One guy gets the wrong message at the wrong time
0:03:21 > 0:03:23and they both end up dead...
0:03:23 > 0:03:26So, I was thinking, if you'd like,
0:03:26 > 0:03:29maybe you and me could...
0:03:29 > 0:03:31go into town?
0:03:31 > 0:03:36Not like on a date or anything! Unless...unless you want to.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Are you asking me out?
0:03:39 > 0:03:40No!
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Yeah.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43Yeah!
0:03:48 > 0:03:51I'll meet you by the gates at eight o'clock.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53OK!
0:03:53 > 0:03:54Cool.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Er... Catch you later.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Where are you going?
0:04:07 > 0:04:08Hunting.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Can I come?
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Well, I suppose it might be educational.
0:04:14 > 0:04:20Master, the last of The Duchess of Cambridge 1937.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22I'm going on a night hunt!
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Master. You're taking this... pup hunting?
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Why not? Man's best friend and all that.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31If he's your best friend, what am I?
0:04:31 > 0:04:34A filthy, infected pustule I can't seem to get rid of.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Thank you!
0:04:49 > 0:04:50Soy blood?!
0:04:50 > 0:04:54Vintage blood replaced by this tasteless, synthetic goo!
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Right! Assemble everyone.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59I will worm out this cowardly maggot and crush them.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05So when are we going hun...?
0:05:05 > 0:05:06Cancelled.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08..ting?
0:05:15 > 0:05:19You are all suspects. Well, except for Renfield, obviously,
0:05:19 > 0:05:23- because he's a filthy little breather.- Thank you very much!
0:05:23 > 0:05:27And Wolfie, as he's too young to drink blood. You two may go.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Might I suggest that you put a guard on the blood cellar?
0:05:34 > 0:05:38Good idea. Wolfie, guard the blood cellar. Don't let anyone in.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Or you'll be out on your ear.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44But Master, all that pup does is bark and scratch himself.
0:05:44 > 0:05:49And yet he's be more useful to me than you've ever been.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52But I can prove myself, Master. I'll catch the blood thief.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Stop whingeing!
0:05:55 > 0:05:59Help Wolfie prepare for his guard duties.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01- Yes, Master.- Yes, Master.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04RENFIELD MUTTERS
0:06:12 > 0:06:13So...
0:06:16 > 0:06:18..which of you was it?
0:06:18 > 0:06:22You know I don't touch the stuff. I only drink soy substitute.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26- Me too.- Right(!) I've seen you drink blood! He drinks it by the gallon.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31- When could I have stolen it? I'm always training Vlad.- ENOUGH!
0:06:31 > 0:06:34You're all grounded until the culprit owns up.
0:06:34 > 0:06:35But I've got a...
0:06:35 > 0:06:38The only thing you've got to do is open the Book
0:06:38 > 0:06:41so we can all get out of here! When will you do that?
0:06:48 > 0:06:49Too tight. Do it again.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53You don't need it! You're just a guard dog.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56No, I'm a proper security guard. Dad said so.
0:06:56 > 0:07:01- He's not your dad, and he never will be.- At least he trusts ME.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03I'm the only one he can rely on!
0:07:03 > 0:07:05WOLFIE LAUGHS
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Oops!
0:07:35 > 0:07:36No prints...
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Smart.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44But not smart enough...
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Where do you want to go tonight?
0:07:46 > 0:07:49We can't, can we? We're grounded.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53- It's OK. Bertrand will cover for us. - Cover for you?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Erin and I are going out tonight.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59You're skipping training and you want me to lie to your father?
0:07:59 > 0:08:01If that's OK?
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Yeah. Don't worry. I'll take care of the Count.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Thanks. Really appreciate it.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14DOG GROWLS
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Go, Wolfie. Good boy.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25A little look...
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Aha! There's a footprint!
0:08:37 > 0:08:39It's a clue.
0:08:58 > 0:08:59Good boy, Wolfie.
0:09:01 > 0:09:02Stupid dog!
0:09:09 > 0:09:12I know what's distracting Vlad.
0:09:12 > 0:09:13Get rid of it!
0:09:13 > 0:09:16It isn't an "it".
0:09:16 > 0:09:17It's Erin.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22That half-breed still has her fangs into my Vladdy?
0:09:22 > 0:09:25They're going on a...date. Tonight.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29Excellent. Ambush them and get rid of her. Job done.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33With respect, this problem may require more...finesse.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Subtlety...is for breathers.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40I don't think so.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44You're Vlad's father, and his Regent.
0:09:44 > 0:09:49- Why don't you show him where his true duty lies?- Because...
0:09:52 > 0:09:54I don't want him to hate me.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Look, we need a clever plan.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00We have to make it look like an accident
0:10:00 > 0:10:03and frame somebody else.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05But who?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Because I'm worth it.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Soy blood? It doesn't seem very "you".
0:10:26 > 0:10:30Duchess of Cambridge '37. An unmistakeable vintage.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32It's just soy blood.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36I thought that if anyone dared to taste forbidden blood, it'd be you.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38I've had plenty forbidden blood.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40I can always spot a bad girl.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43You've never met a girl as bad as me.
0:10:43 > 0:10:49Prove it. You can take me to dinner. In the blood cellar. Eight o'clock.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Oh, bother!
0:11:26 > 0:11:31Soon, my beloved. Soon we will be together.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Erin. Did you get the message?
0:11:45 > 0:11:46No.
0:11:46 > 0:11:51- Oh. It's about meeting Vlad. Can you meet on the balcony instead?- OK.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Thanks.
0:11:55 > 0:11:56My pleasure.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58FLY BUZZES
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Wicked!
0:12:32 > 0:12:33Shoes...
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Bother!
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Gloves!
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Come to Daddy!
0:13:28 > 0:13:30RENFIELD CHUCKLES
0:14:04 > 0:14:05Vlad?
0:14:32 > 0:14:36Sunrise, and then you're toast.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43HUMS TO HIMSELF
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Play dead.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03HE WHIMPERS
0:15:14 > 0:15:19- Isn't he supposed to be guarding this place?- I can handle Wolfie.
0:15:19 > 0:15:24- Seems to me you can handle almost anything.- But can you handle this?
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Genghis Fireblood Tepes 1488.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Just one.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37Oh, when your father finds out about this...
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Your turn.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Come on. What are you?
0:15:49 > 0:15:53A mad, bad vampire, or just some stuffy tutor?
0:15:53 > 0:15:57I take my responsibilities to your brother seriously.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Playing nursemaid?
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Oh. It's not as simple as that.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06What do you mean?
0:16:08 > 0:16:12Oh. His little crush on the half-fang.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- As if that's going anywhere. - Yeah, you're right.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20She's still hung up on her old breather boyfriend.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26Typical half-fang. Can't ever quite let go of the past.
0:16:26 > 0:16:32- Does Vlad know?- No. Could get messy.- How messy?
0:16:34 > 0:16:37She's going to meet the ex. Tonight.
0:16:37 > 0:16:42Vlad is at the school gates now waiting for her. She stood him up.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Fantastic.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Mmm, what a great evening. Dinner and a show.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Ah!
0:16:59 > 0:17:00Hmm.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08ELECTRICAL CRACKLING
0:18:01 > 0:18:03AIR WHOOSHES
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Hey. You expecting someone?
0:18:06 > 0:18:08- No. What do you want?- Nothing.
0:18:08 > 0:18:13- Just wanted to hang out with you. What's wrong with that?- Everything.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15- Go away.- Moody!
0:18:15 > 0:18:20Hanging around the school gates on a Friday night? Fun way to spend it(!)
0:18:20 > 0:18:24- Shut up.- What's biting your neck? - Nothing!
0:18:24 > 0:18:27You're angry, defensive, paranoid.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Anyone would think you'd been stood up.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36- What have you done to Erin? - Haven't done anything to Erin.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40But you know something.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45Seeing as you asked so nicely, I suppose you know that she's gone.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47To see her breather ex.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54Those half-fangs - can't ever quite let go of the breather thing.
0:18:54 > 0:18:59It's all for the best. She would have dumped you soon enough anyway.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Thanks, Ingrid.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07My pleasure.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10SHE SIGHS
0:19:15 > 0:19:18SHE WHIMPERS
0:19:18 > 0:19:21SHE RATTLES DOOR
0:19:33 > 0:19:35- AIR WHOOSHES Is it done?- Almost.
0:19:35 > 0:19:40- What good is "almost"?- As we speak, she's trapped on a balcony,
0:19:40 > 0:19:43she can't fly, and at sunrise, she's toast.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47- Distraction removed.- Vlad?- Believes she's gone. He's training.- Yes.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Nail varnish?
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Nail varnish!
0:20:21 > 0:20:23HE CACKLES
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Gotcha.
0:20:27 > 0:20:32Thieves lack intelligence...style...
0:20:37 > 0:20:38..and guts.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44- Why are you looking at me? - Because you are the blood thief.
0:20:44 > 0:20:49No, I'm not. Think about it. Where's Erin? Why isn't she here?
0:20:49 > 0:20:51She's obviously guilty.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57- - Exhibit A. - Thank you very much.
0:21:00 > 0:21:07Under forensic examination, particles of your nail varnish were evident
0:21:07 > 0:21:12in the soy blood that was swapped for my vintage Duchess of Cambridge '37.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16Well, that figures. Erin borrowed my nail varnish.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20Then you won't mind me examining your hand.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24- Exhibit B.- Thank you very much.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Oh, what a surprise, it fits! Pack your bag and go.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- You can't throw me out. - I should have done it weeks ago.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41- Your infection's cleared up. Why are you here?!- I have reasons.
0:21:41 > 0:21:46- Not any more. Get out now.- But the country is crawling with slayers.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- What if they catch me? - Then I'll lend them a stake!
0:21:48 > 0:21:53They'll want to take me alive. They know I'm the Chosen One's sister.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57Then they'll use me to find all of you.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05HE MOUTHS You wouldn't say a thing.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- Would you?- Daddy, I'll draw them a map.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16THUNDERCLAP Agh! All right, you can stay.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19I don't want to have to look at that stupid girl face.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22- I'm enrolling you in school. - School? I'm 20.
0:22:22 > 0:22:27- Slayers or school - make your mind up!- Fine, I'll go to school.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Think of all the breathers I can corrupt.
0:22:33 > 0:22:34See you.
0:22:36 > 0:22:41Keep an eye on him. He mustn't be alone till sunrise. Got it?
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Why did I ask her out? What was I thinking?
0:23:03 > 0:23:08You weren't thinking. You were feeling.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11And feelings have no place in your future.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17- Now...let the power fall into you. - Who is this ex?
0:23:17 > 0:23:20- She never mentioned an ex. - Let the strength flow.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Why didn't she tell me herself?
0:23:22 > 0:23:25- You must banish all thoughts of Erin and focus.- I can't!
0:23:25 > 0:23:26This is doing my head in.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29She must have known I'd rather hear it from her.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51- What are you doing here? It's almost dawn.- He's gone to find her.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Vladimir!- Vlad, get inside!
0:23:56 > 0:24:01- Vlad? Vlad!- Erin? - Someone locked me out.
0:24:01 > 0:24:07- Oh, what a shame. So you better come in now, Vlad. Dawn's breaking.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Vlad, go, please. It's too dangerous.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17- - The sun, Vladimir, you won't make it.- Ah!
0:24:44 > 0:24:46VLAD PANTS
0:24:46 > 0:24:50- I'm on fire.- I'll say! - No, really.- Oh!
0:24:50 > 0:24:52HE GRUNTS IN PAIN
0:24:53 > 0:24:59- Thanks.- No, thank you. That was brave.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02- And stupid - you could have died. - So could you.
0:25:02 > 0:25:07- I'm not a vampire.- As soon as the sun hit you, everyone would have known.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Dad and Bertrand would have got you.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- What were you doing out there anyway?- Meeting you.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22I was waiting at the gates.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25Yeah, but Bertrand told me to meet you on the balcony.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Why didn't you come to look for me?
0:25:28 > 0:25:33- Ingrid said you'd gone to see your ex-boyfriend.- What ex-boyfriend?
0:25:35 > 0:25:39- Then someone locked you out. - Someone was trying to get rid of me.
0:25:39 > 0:25:40Bertrand or Ingrid.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47How could you let this happen?
0:25:47 > 0:25:52You promised me the girl would be gone.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57It's not my fault your son can't control his emotions.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Don't you ever have a day off?
0:26:08 > 0:26:12- I train to make sure I don't. - Hmm. Looks good on you.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Why did you tell Erin to meet me on the balcony?
0:26:20 > 0:26:24- I was passing on a message. - From who?- Ingrid.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27I don't know what you're talking about.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30You don't remember telling me Erin had gone with her ex?
0:26:30 > 0:26:32Yes, but I was just messing with you.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35- It was Bertrand that told me. - No, I didn't.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39Now, why would you say that?
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Can't you see what's right in front of you?
