:04:01
Okay. And... how's that
fit in with vampires?
:04:03
In the case of vampires,
we're dealing with creatures that, uh,
:04:06
are the repositories of some
of our most taboo thoughts.
:04:08
- Okay.
- Predatory rage.
:04:09
- Yeah.
- Sexual sadism.
:04:10
- Sexual?
- Sexual sadism.
:04:11
These are very scary subjects
for people to own up to,
:04:13
and they're right inside.
:04:14
So what you're saying is
we pass the buck onto someone else.
:04:16
- You bet we do.
- And vampires...?
:04:18
Well, for instance,
there's a hereditary blood disease.
:04:20
I talk about it in my book.
It's called porphyria.
:04:21
And the symptoms of this disease
:04:22
are remarkably similar
to classic vampire traits.
:04:24
The people who suffer
from this disease are anemic,
:04:26
they become intolerant to sunlight,
they can't handle garlic--
:04:28
Garlic?
Chief Vreede. Okay.
:04:30
What's your take on all these rumors
we've been hearing about vampires?
:04:32
Vampires, vampires. What?
:04:33
The only vampires I'm worried about
are the ones passing the bar exam.
:04:38
Seriously, though.
:04:39
If vampires existed, don't you think
we would've found them by now?
:04:41
The truth is our streets
have never been safer.
:04:42
Homicide, assaults, violent crime
is down across the board.
:04:44
If people want to be concerned,
:04:45
they should focus in on characters
like this Blade criminal.
:04:47
Now, that's the guy I wanna hear about.
:04:48
I wanna hear about this character Blade.
What about him?
:04:49
He's a sociopath
that we've been pursuing.
:04:51
Blade is a troubled individual.
:04:53
I understand that he is
under the impression
:04:55
that there is a vast conspiracy
of vampires.
:04:57
Now, you've got to look
at the psychiatric underpinnings
:04:58
of a belief like that.
:05:00
Odds are he believes
that he is out there slaying monsters.
:05:03
- But what he's really doing...
- Mm-hmm.
:05:04
...is trying to kill
aspects of himself.
:05:09
Aah!
:05:13
Aah!
:05:15
Ah!
:05:42
Aah!
