Speaker:In your soul how much sadness was lost.
Speaker:That's good view.
Speaker:He's like, man, you don't know.
Speaker:We think vampires are gathering in a chateau and maybe this is the reason
Speaker:we can go and look for ourselves.
Speaker:See if it is just innocent nobles with their teeth stained
Speaker:by nothing worse than vintage carrot, but we could use some help.
Speaker:They are not going to give you any help whatsoever.
Speaker:Don't do it.
Speaker:he reminds me of a, uh, a previous religious figure in the series.
Speaker:Spies everywhere.
Speaker:They are everywhere.
Speaker:The whole town.
Speaker:It's why we go to the woods.
Speaker:We did the right thing though.
Speaker:Speaking to him.
Speaker:Oh Shit
Speaker:you're looking pretty good girl.
Speaker:So and you are a terrible shot.
Speaker:This is why you should always go to the range.
Speaker:Oh Man,
Speaker:bro, that's an elbow.
Speaker:You did like nothing to defend yourself.
Speaker:Basically nothing.
Speaker:No
Speaker:Damn,
Speaker:that's probably some freaky shit they were doing back in France, back in
Speaker:the time of the French Revolution.
Speaker:You know, this scene reminds me of something, but I can't think of it.
Speaker:What?
Speaker:I don't know, it seems so familiar.
Speaker:Bray.
Speaker:Is this whole new series based off an interview with a vampire?
Speaker:Probably.
Speaker:Damn, look at all those people.
Speaker:Like, uh, I'm so bored.
Speaker:Then why are you doing this?
Speaker:Man, having a terrible, terrible dream.

Speaker:Always.
Speaker:I am Batman.
Speaker:You're such a dick.
Speaker:I like
Speaker:the Belmont style, you know what I mean?
Speaker:Although, I don't think Trevor is his dad.
Speaker:I think it's probably like his great ancestor.
Speaker:Probably like his, I think it's like his great grandfather?
Speaker:No, that must be his aunt he was talking about.
Speaker:Oh, so those two must be cousins.
Speaker:Probably.
Speaker:Man, I hope so.
