(Fritz The Night Owl) As we continue
our 1959 encounter with
The Bat.
Moral of our story so far.
If there might be a mysterious
throat-slashing maniac
in your house tonight,
just remember everything's gonna be
- a-okay,
- (glass shatters)
Safe and secure if you
all have flashlights.
Nothing to worry about, even
if the top cop is leaving,
and the hole in the door
window hasn't been fixed.
One also wonders, if
Mark's throat was slashed,
and he hemorrhaged, why
didn't we see any blood
on his clothes?
- (ominous music)

(door creaks)
(footsteps thumping)
(ominous music continues)
(light switch clicking)
(light switch clicks)
f*ck' kids.
(light switch clicks)
(whispering voices echoing)
(door creaks)
(door thuds)
(Fritz The Night Owl)
Or the overly officious,
so-called searching of Andy,
the long arm of the law.
Wonder if you will, the owls,
and beware as he could care less.
Only hope these ladies
will help me make it through the night.
(ominous music)
I got a g*n.
(object thuds)
(floorboards squeaking)
(ominous music continues)
(eerie voices whispering)
You don't want this.
(eerie voices echoing)
Oh.
(tense music)
Oh, Jesus!
(door banging)
(phone beeping)
(phone ringing)
One more time.
The sides or the gravies?
Both.
(door bangs)
- (door creaks)
- Come on!
Fries, fruit, hash brown, cottage salad.
Brown, white, mustard, dry.
(phone continues ringing)
(door banging)
Which are the gravies?
I gotta take this.
Dairy Bar. Yes, we're open.
(Joe) No, no, no, no!
Get the hell away from me!
Hello?
(Joe screaming)
I don't know what you're selling, but
(Joe screaming)
- (Joe) Lamont.
- Dad?
(eerie music)
(unsettling music)
(wistful music)
(Adrienne clears throat)
(watch tapping)
Well uh
I guess it's that time.
Hard to believe he's been gone a week now.
I still expect him to tag me out
before every breakfast rush.
Looking for a new day shift manager,
if you didn't get the hint.
Um
pause for laughter.
(stirring music)
Uh, in the eight years I worked with him,
um, dad never missed a shift.
(sighs) If that's not integrity...
(wistful music)
Uh, he always, he always would clean
the coffee pots when he left.
And
I'm gonna miss that.
Um, drive safe, everyone.
Uh, the diner'll be open in 10.
(wistful music continues)
Hey, thanks for driving out, ma.
I'd...
You're welcome.
Okay.
So what are you gonna do with it?
Well, in about seven minutes,
I'm gonna clock into it.
And in about 40 years,
I'm gonna die in it.
Be serious, Lamont.
Ma, that's all I ever am with you.
What time do you get off?
11, until we find someone.
I'll be waiting for you with the papers.
You look nice.
(mysterious music)
All right, line 'em up.
(coffee trickling)
Jesus.
Religion helps in times like these.
Thanks for the tip, sheriff.
Can I get you anything, or?
No, this is about what I can get you.
Okay.
These coyote attacks
have gone on long enough.
The hikers are one thing.
Out-of-towners don't know
what they don't know.
But now they've crossed a line.
And so help me, I'm gonna
do everything in my power
to nail the mangy b*stards
that got your old man.
(spoon tapping)
Well, I don't know if
coyotes understand justice,
but I sure do.
So, thank you.
I'm gonna go make hash browns now.
I mean it, Lamont.
I knew your dad a long time.
We lost a cornerstone of this community.
(Lamont) Sure.
And people are scared to
walk down the street now.
To have windows!
Uh-huh.
So if you can remember anything at all
about the noise the coyote
made over the phone,
- I think that might have-
- Mornin', sheriff.
Heard someone goin' nutroll on
your radio when I walked in.
You don't say.
I do say, I do.
Sounds like Route 16's lookin'
like an absolute junkyard right about now.
(sighs) My God.
Justice, Lamont.
(Lamont) Okay.
Justice?
(Lamont) He's gonna k*ll all
the three-dozen coyotes that did it.
Shouldn't that be your
quest for vengeance?
Yeah
I got work.
Sorry.
I did, too.
Work.
I wanted to be there, but a semi
knocked out a whole V of geese
like low-flying bowling pins, so...
No, it's okay.
Mm, (chuckles) nah, I
gotta go cremate the flock.
I just wanted to drop in and drop off.
I'll see you tonight?
Tomorrow.
I think I can pencil you in.
(Lamont chuckles)
Right, the hash browns. Hash browns.
(mysterious music)
(Lamont yawns)
(ominous music)
(mysterious music)
(Terence humming)
(Terence clears throat)
Yep, someone around here,
they take one puff and then they k*ll it.
They just k*ll it.
It's wasteful.
Lucky.
No, American Spirits, I think. (Laughs)
(Terence coughs)
Evening, fellas.
Where's the rest of the line-up?
It's just us tonight.
You know, I-I haven't seen the
boys in the tunnel in a few.
Yeah, they must've hit
the trail. (Chuckles)
Gotta move on sometimes.
Yeah, uh, well, uh, congratulations
on the extra portions, then.
Hey, thanks, Mr. Guest.
(mysterious music)
Gotta move on eventually.
(mysterious music continues)
(unsettling music)
Can't be afraid of it.
(water splashing)
And another one bites the dust.
Show you what I found this mornin'.
(wistful music)
Garbage?
Miss me with that sh*t.
This here is possibility.
Where'd you find this possibility, Dad?
In the garbage.
Now, we can all be found in
the garbage from time to time,
that doesn't mean that we are garbage.
Mm-hmm.
This is a place where
a man can hang his hat.
That's not nothin'.
We're almost out of
strawberry jelly, by the way.
Look, are you gonna
fix this for me or not?
Am I talking to my dad or my employer?
You're the handy one.
You're off the clock.
Well, maybe I'm busy.
What are you gonna do?
It's Wednesday.
"Jack and Jeopardy."
(Lamont chuckles)
One man's trash is
it's not my problem.
Ugh.
See you tomorrow.
Yeah, whatever.
(water sloshing)
(Lamont sobbing)
(glass shatters)
Who's there?
(ominous music)
(door creaking)
Can I help you?
(door creaking)
(vampire rasping)
I got a g*n.
(vampire continues rasping)
(ominous music continues)
(vampire coughs)
(vampire grunts)
Are we good?
(vampire rasping)
Oh, we f*cked.
(objects clattering)
(vampire snarls)
(tense music)
(harpoon whooshes)
(vampire screams)
(vampire groans)
(vampire screaming)
(sword thuds)
(flesh squelches)
Hey, man, I, I didn't see sh*t.
Wanna know?
(unsettling music)
(Belko grunting)
(head thuds)
(Belko sighs)
(harpoon thuds)
(truck door clicks)
(truck door thuds)
(Belko sighs)
Did that thing k*ll my dad?
One of 'em.
How many are there?
Too many.
How many is that?
Do you have a couch?
Mm?
(engine roars)
(pensive music)
(door creaks)
(door thuds)
(lock clicking)
All right, make yourself at couch.
(pensive music continues)
You're late.
I was (sighs)...
Can't we do this over the phone?
Do you know how long
I've been waiting for you?
Then you should probably get a move on.
I need coffee for the drive home.
(Lamont sighs)
(cupboard creaks)
(water pouring)
(microwave beeps)
(Lamont sighs)
So what's the deal, ma?
Oh, my attorney has spelled
it out in plain English
and very agreeable terms
No, no, no, no, I'm
not asking your attorney.
I'm asking my mom.
Give me your father's half of the diner.
This town needs a dollar store
and we've got prime frontage.
And I get?
A chance to go back to trade school,
finish that welding certification.
Finally make somethin' of yourself.
Any money?
We're family.
(microwave beeps)
(Lamont sighs)
Ma
my life is bacon and eggs.
Always has been.
Ever since dad taught
me how to use a griddle
and you taught me how
to feel guilty about it.
What's your plan, son?
Find another manager
pay rent.
Maybe order another table
jelly if I'm feelin' dangerous.
You think that little
girlfriend of yours
will respect that?
Did you?
(Belko knocks)
Ma'am.
Blanket?
(Lamont sighs)
Lamont,
who's that?
That's my attorney.
It's a long drive. I'll
get you a to-go cup.
(door creaks)
We will talk about this later.
Looking forward to it.
(unsettling music)
Hey, ma!
Don't come back here again.
(unsettling music continues)
(car door thuds)
(engine roars)
(unsettling music continues)
(locks clicking)
All right, I got a key for you
in case you need to get out or...
Yeah, that's about right.
(paper rustling)
(unsettling music continues)
(unsettling music fades)
(mysterious music)
Work open till close.
Check out the Penn Street Tunnel
homeless camp
if you can.
(mysterious music continues)
(water sloshing)
(mysterious music continues)
(water continues sloshing)
(mysterious music continues)
(jarring music)
(paper rustles)
(jarring music)
(man snarling)
(Belko grunts)
(g*n fires)
(vampire screeches)
(tense music)
(g*n clicks)
No trespassing.
Or g*n.
(g*n clatters)
(door slams)
(Belko sighs)
Looks like your new roommate
won't be off until 11
to pay your fine, so
kindly enjoy your stay
in the finest lodgings
my tax dollars provide.
Oh, and when you do see Lamont next,
remind him we've got enough kooks
and crackheads around here.
He doesn't need to be
hangin' out with
imports.
(door thuds)
(unsettling music)
(paper rustling)
(crickets chirping)
(unsettling music continues)
(eerie music)
(voice echoes)
Something keeping you up at night?
Uh-uh-uh.
Don't get up on my account.
You know who I am?
I know what.
Good.
Good, good, good.
You can just call me The Boss
and then that way we don't
have to make this personal.
Slaughter is always personal.
(The Boss chuckles menacingly)
So bold.
So strong.
So virile.
(unsettling music continues)
I know you.
I know what you are.
My kind, the muckety-muck kind
we talk.
You don't.
Don't talk to us because,
well, mm
too busy.
Too busy slaughtering us
and then just moving on.
I don't really care why you
are on a personal crusade.
(The Boss' Telepathy)
I don't particularly care
that you're thinning out my herd.
Because they're all expendable.
To be honest, I don't mind
you fighting with my kind
because, well, it's actually,
it's good for business.
(unsettling music continues)
More backwater blood to go around.
(unsettling music continues)
(The Boss' Telepathy) I mean, I could
just give you the ol'...
(claps) Snap out of it
before you got to the county line
and just come back for more.
So I'm gonna make a deal with you.
No, thanks.
Bad dental.
He's even got jokes.
Seriously, though, what do you do?
Do you have hobbies?
Do you get out?
Did your daddy spank
you when you were a kid?
Forgive me, I just don't
get the opportunity
to see how the other half lives.
Above ground.
Mm, I just don't get why
you'd dedicate your life,
to something you hate,
when,
most of us
only get one.
Eat sh*t and die twice.
You're just as fun as
they said you would be.
That is, before you
k*lled them, of course.
Just so happens
I know an up-and-coming hive
in Allegheny.
I will draw you a map.
I will even keep putting points on it,
if you leave town tonight.
Or else?
Or else there are fates
far worse than death.
We're living proof.
Mm, if I was afraid of dying
I'd be dead.
(The Boss chuckles menacingly)
(unsettling music continues)
That's what friends are for.
(unsettling music continues)
(footsteps thumping)
Do I know you?
It's a small town.
Probably seen me at work.
Nah, I never served you.
You will.
You have a nice night.
(The Boss) Always do.
(sheriff snoring)
Sheriff I
Oh my God.
(sheriff continues snoring)
Sheriff.
Well, well, well.
Yeah, I know, I'm late being late.
Made the guys chili.
I thought you kept better
company than this, Lamont.
I'm full of surprises.
You're a good kid.
Got a good heart,
the way you take care of those careless.
But,
maybe
if they were a little hungrier
(g*n clicks)
They'd be workin'.
And postin' their bail
certainly doesn't do this town
or its taxpayers any good.
You want my bail money or not?
Yeah.
Wasn't attached to that $300 anyway.
(plastic crinkling)
Look, man.
I wanna help you.
I think,
but I can't have the sheriff
loading his g*n at me, you know?
Isn't there anything you wanna say to me?
Almost rhymes with "f*ck you"?
Know any hobos?
I-I wouldn't call 'em that, but...
What do we have tonight?
Well, fillet mignon
And caviar?
(chuckles) Ah yes, but of course.
And for a, uh,
uh, oars Dover.
Hors d'oeuvres.
(laughs)
Yeah, an appetizer, right.
We have
oysters.
Bone-apples-teeth.
You know
I've been thinkin'. (Sighs)
About the boys from the tunnel?
I don't know why they skipped.
But, uh, maybe it's time to mosey.
'Cause everybody else has?
Well, I don't know.
Somethin's in the wind.
Oh, the best puckey.
Redpatch's the safest place
we've been to in years.
Few police, plenty of places to camp,
And, well, we got fresh
food here and there.
You know, fresh enough. Besides
(jarring music)
(unsettling music)
Occupied.
(unsettling music continues)
(Terence) Bud?
- (vampire hisses)
- (Terence gasps)
(vampire snarls)
(Terence screaming)
Terence!
(unsettling music continues)
(vampire rasping)
(vampire snarls)
(Bud grunting)
(Bud groaning)
(vampire snarls)
(Bud groaning)
(unsettling music continues)
(truck door creaks)
(truck door thuds)
Oh, hey, hey, hey.
I know him.
Mr. Guest?
And friend.
All right, we need to talk.
Terence with you?
(somber music)
If there's anything we can do.
I'll take a ride.
All right.
(somber music continues)
Recognize these?
Yeah, I know him.
Found 'em in the tunnels.
That ain't right.
He stays at the drive-in
on the off-season.
Maybe something made him move.
If you have any questions about anything
I'm all right.
Why don't you stay at my place
for a few at least, until we
(stuttering)
Just take me to the edge of town, please.
I got it.
(truck door thuds)
You sure you don't want
a weapon or anything?
I think we got plenty.
I can handle myself.
So it's about that time.
Gotta move on eventually.
Thanks for dinner.
You're welcome.
(unsettling music)
(vampire snarling)
(Lamont choking)
(g*n firing)
(Lamont coughing)
Hey.
Hey.
Hey!
Do you know anyone with
a really big grill?
Oh, sh*t.
(Lamont coughs)
(knocks on door)
Hey.
(door clicks)
We were supposed to do something tonight.
This is somethin'.
(knocks on door)
Marlene, I-I came here to, uh
to talk.
About what?
Can we talk inside?
Thank you.
My friend might be in and
out 'cause of the, the cold.
(mysterious music)
(door clicks)
Don't be cute with me right now.
(Lamont) Doesn't sound
like something I'd do.
And who was that out there?
A friend.
I already said he was my friend.
You don't have any friends.
(Lamont) I'm practicing.
(body thuds)
He's, uh, he's a friend of dad's.
He didn't have any friends either.
I'm processing.
Sorry.
You know I'm not great
with that kind of dead.
No, it's, (sighs) it's fine.
I blew you off. I shoulda called.
Yeah, you should've.
(Belko grunts)
Uh, do you wanna take this conversation
somewhere more private?
Lamont, I am the only one here.
I mean, somewhere with chairs.
- (object clatters)
- (ominous music)
Is there some reason I should
be sitting down for this?
No, no.
It's,
it's just more ergonomic, baby.
(ominous music continues)
(Belko grunting)
(eerie music)
(vampire snarling)
(Belko grunts)
(fist thumping)
Um, no, nothing's, nothing's wrong.
Things have been pretty good lately.
Besides the funeral.
I'm really glad that you
were there for a lot of it.
(vampire snarling)
(Belko grunting)
(Belko) Oh, God.
I appreciate you
and, uh, I think you turn
my life sunny-side up.
And, uh
I'm not gonna marry you.
What?
(horn honking)
(tense music)
(vampire rasping)
(Lamont grunts)
(tense music continues)
Belko!
(vampire snarling)
(g*n fires)
(Lamont coughs)
What the f*ck is that?
Why do you have a g*n?
Putting things down. Now you do mine.
It's a vampire.
No, it isn't.
Is it?
It was.
(flesh squelching)
(Marlene grunts)
(bones cracking)
Oh. (Coughs)
(flesh squelching)
Is the heart supposed to be,
over there like that?
(sighs) Historically, yes.
Now tell me something
I don't know, lover boy.
I already told you,
this is, uh, a vampire that, um
Your turn, Van Helsing.
Stab the heart, lose the head.
Smoke 'em if you got 'em.
That's it?
Well, the fire's just in case.
Got that. Got that, okay.
Yeah, there are two types.
This is a drone.
Always hungry. Don't need much.
But (exhales deeply) the more they starve,
the worse they get.
Okay, which is why this looks like
the inside of a vacuum cleaner?
(Belko) Mm-hmm.
How many are there?
You lose count after a while.
Naturally.
Then there's the boss.
Okay, wait, what do these
bosses usually look like?
Assholes.
Okay.
There's always one for each
hive. To keep them organized.
And starved.
And behaved.
They hunt, they feed.
They bring back the best game
and strip 'em for the brass.
So he needs them to do the, the k*lling.
But why do they need a boss?
Why does anyone need a boss?
(pensive music)
Is that it?
No, I'm good.
- Really?
- Yeah, makes sense.
It does?
Uptick in animal attacks,
a few of them being blamed on coyotes,
although there's only been two such deaths
in recorded history.
No noticeable changes in
animal attacking animals,
and nobody's seen any lions and tigers
and bears running around.
So, sure.
Vampires.
Isn't she great?
(Belko sighs)
(sighs) So we're gonna,
uh, hit the drive-in,
in the morning.
Think it's a hive or a nest.
Not super sure on the vocabulary.
You should stay at my place.
You know, safety in numbers, and all.
I can't.
Oh.
I've gotta clean out the incinerator
before Jerry comes in tomorrow morning.
Yeah. Yeah, good, good.
Don't wanna, don't wanna scare Jerry.
Just watch your back.
I'm fond of that side.
(ominous music)
(twigs crunching)
(lantern whirl ring)
(ominous music continues)
I don't wanna k*ll you.
Thanks.
I wanna offer you a job.
No, thanks.
Just when I'm losing
people left and right,
you find somebody with
talent, strength, and fight.
No one wants to work anymore.
Make your best offer.
Well, you'll never have
to worry about food, cash,
or a roof over your head ever again.
And I mean ever again.
Yeah.
What's your catch?
Well
it's gonna hurt,
a little bit.
(sword swooshes)
(unsettling music)
(The Boss snuffs)
Mm.
Mm, good body.
(knife swooshes)
(vampire snarling)
(Bud screams)
(Bud gasps)
(unsettling music continues)
(Bud gasps)
Welcome aboard.
(truck door thuds)
You got any tools?
Garage.
You mind?
Y-You good?
'Night.
(unsettling music)
(shells clattering)
(metal hangers scraping)
(hammer pounds)
(Lamont sighs)
(unsettling music continues)
(paper tears)
(unsettling music continues)
(food crunching)
(sword scraping)
(spearhead scrapes)
(unsettling music continues)
(sword clatters)
Heart pounding. Just checkin' up.
(Belko sighs)
Watch the door.
(electricity crackling)
Just uh,
pound it off when it cools.
Hey,
you're good.
Almost.
(unsettling music)
(unsettling music fades)
(door creaks)
(door rattles)
(unsettling music)
(unsettling music builds up)
(switch clicks)
(electricity buzzing)
(unsettling music continues)
(door creaks)
(unsettling music continues)
(vampire rasping)
- (objects clattering)
- Oh.
Good, he gets this round.
(vampire rasping)
(tense music)
(object clatters)
(tense music continues)
(vampire snarling)
(ominous music)
It's okay.
(ominous music continues)
It's okay.
(voice whispering)
(vampire snarling)
(tense music)
(vampire snarling)
Sucks to suck.
(vampire continues snarling)
(object thwacks)
(Lamont coughing)
Oh, God.
He didn't show up.
How many did you get?
Doesn't matter.
How'd I do?
Are you alive?
(Lamont sighs)
(Lamont grunts)
(Lamont sighs)
Enough.
Not bad.
I worked at Waffle House.
(door creaks)
(Belko coughs)
(Sheriff) Freeze!
Oh, sheriff. Thank God.
There's a room full of...
I... evidence in there.
You gotta take a look.
Easy, easy now.
Why don't you take a look down the barrel
of this 357 instead?
(Lamont sighs)
(door clangs)
What about my phone call?
I got a girlfriend, I got a mom.
You're not getting any calls.
No, I do. It's in the
Constitution or somethin'.
No, no, it's not.
Best I can do is a last meal.
But you'll have to split it.
Last?
Oh, I should think so.
Boss or one of his boys
should swing by shortly.
We'll be waiting.
Oh, shut up!
Now that's a man with a plan,
and it happens to rhyme with mine.
Been taking the scum off the streets
ever since he rolled in here.
f*ck' freeloaders in the reservoir,
by the drive-in, in your trash.
And all the other problems.
What about my dad?
What was he?
I guess,
they couldn't tell.
(gum chews)
Give my regards to the night shift.
I'll be back tomorrow morning
to clean up whatever's left.
I don't think the gut popped.
Fingers crossed.
Luck be a lady and I think
we're goin' to dinner tonight.
Third date.
I'm makin' moves.
Uh-huh.
You need to get down
and get your ankles in it.
Excuse me, ma'am.
I'm gonna go shake the
hand of the president.
What am I doing?
(trucker screaming)
(ominous music)
Tough luck, pal.
(ominous music continues)
(vampire gnawing)
(trucker groans)
(vampire grunting)
(vampire gnawing)
This is for stinkin' up my furnace.
(g*n fires)
(vampire screeches)
(tense music)
(vampire rasping)
(vampire hissing)
(tense music continues)
(vampire snarls)
(g*n fires)
(Marlene panting)
(tense music continues)
(vampires snarling)
(Lamont sighs)
Why didn't you call her?
You heard the man.
No, no, no, why didn't
you call your girlfriend?
I wasn't sure she'd pick up.
Why not?
Look, man, I'm not sure of
a lot of things anymore,
okay?
A week ago, I had a, had a dad and a life.
And now he's dead, and I'm
doing Wesley Snipes sh*t.
(Belko sighs)
Mine, too.
(somber music)
Folks bought a farm after the w*r.
There's nothing special.
You've seen a hundred,
I've seen a thousand.
Didn't mean sh*t to a kid like me.
But it meant somethin' to my dad.
He wasn't much of a
talker to tell me what.
When he tried to tell me w*r
stories,
it just bored me.
He was a medic, see?
He didn't bring me a Colt
for Christmas or anything.
His only souvenir was a little
notebook,
about this size.
Yeah, a lot of the boys over
there kept score.
Kills.
I was so excited at all
the scratched up pages.
My dad, he was a w*r hero.
"No, son, I never pulled a
trigger in my entire life."
They weren't kills.
They were losses.
Couple years later, we
got in this huge fight
about my future and the farm.
And
I snuck off to the county fair,
and my life was over
by the time I got home.
Wiped out my whole family.
(somber music continues)
(paper rustles)
Mine.
And if I'd gotten here,
a day earlier,
(paper rustles)
Yours would still be alive.
(somber music continues)
I keep goin' because I don't hurt anymore,
they keep making more of them,
they keep making more of me.
Well if you'd gotten here a
day later,
I'd be dead.
Mm, I've never eaten
in a Waffle House before.
(Lamont chuckles)
I'll buy,
if we ever get out of here.
(Lamont sighs)
(somber music continues)
(Belko sighs)
Won't be long now.
(jarring music)
What now?
(door clicks)
Your girlfriend just called
in the latest coyote attack
on the other side of town, and
I gotta make an appearance.
So if you're not here when I get back,
say hi to your dad for me.
(door thuds)
I'll k*ll him if you don't.
Thank you.
(door opens)
How, how did you find us?
(sighs) Called your mom,
and she said you'd probably
be in jail right now
because of your weird friend.
No offense.
So sheriff's on Team Those Things, huh?
Always the ones you most expect.
(door creaks)
Thank you.
All right then,
who's next?
Yeah.
So,
what's our next move?
What's our next move?
(Marlene sighs)
Five here, two months ago.
Two here, snatched joggers.
Okay, where'd you start in town?
The old gas station, to the east.
Yeah, my turn.
(Belko) One here.
Okay.
Am I missing anything?
Trucker, Route 22, where
the trail runs close.
Well, they certainly get around.
But they always build a
bleeding room to feed the boss.
Are these in the woods?
Woods, mountains.
Away from the highways?
Off-road.
Okay, you tracked them, here.
(sighs)
We already knew that.
How do you track 'em?
Reported animal attacks.
Old-fashioned way.
(Marlene) How do they get around?
Can they drive?
(Belko) No. Not that I'm aware of.
Just seems like a hell of long walk,
especially for management.
Not if you've got a ride.
(unsettling music)
These small towns,
not close to the river?
Yeah?
They're railroad stops.
Farmers carry freight out,
send cattle away.
It's their highway.
(Lamont) Yeah, it is.
(Belko) I'll be damned.
Right in front of me.
And now they're right down Main Street.
Let's hunt.
Nah-uh,
not with the sheriff out there.
Vampires are one problem,
assholes with g*ns is another.
She's right.
Which is why I'll keep him busy.
Are you sure?
Pretty good at it.
Let's go.
(map rustles)
I'm gonna catch up with you guys.
I gotta close up.
(mugs clinking)
You don't have to do this.
I clean up dead things for a living.
(truck door thuds)
You could die.
He'd never be the same.
For three years, I've been
watching him die in there.
A little bit more every morning.
This is the most alive I've ever seen him.
Let him mourn himself.
Just do me a favor.
Watch his back.
I'm fond of it.
(truck door clicks)
(truck door thuds)
(wistful music continues)
So long.
(object clatters)
(floorboard creaks)
Belko?
(ominous music)
(distant vampire snarling)
(Bud snarls)
Bud?
(Bud snarling)
(hatchet thwacks)
You ready?
(unsettling music)
If they get close.
(ominous music)
(truck door creaks)
(truck door thuds)
(ominous music continues)
About sucked the town dry.
Boss'll be leaving Redpatch any day now.
I-I don't get it.
I see a lot of blood.
Why don't the little ones just drink that?
'Cause he told them not to.
(ominous music continues)
This guy came in all the time,
almost every night.
Asked me about all the gravies and sides,
like multiple times.
Only ever ordered coffee.
I never,
I never knew what his name was.
- (vampire snarls)
- Freeze!
(tense music)
Drop the,
all of that sh*t.
I wanna see hands and smiles.
(vampire rasping)
Don't get cute.
I've confiscated another
knife off you twice already.
(vampire continues rasping)
(sheriff groans)
Son of a...
(g*n clicks)
You, b*stard, I should,
no.
Nah, he wants you two alive,
'cause you're special.
Got a dinner date down in the dining car
with your laugh-riot lady friend.
You know?
My dad always thought you were a d*ck.
Son, I get paid to be a d*ck.
And a whole lot more
than a f*ck' waitress.
(vampires rasping)
- (vampires gnawing)
- (ominous music)
(hatchet thudding)
(ominous music continues)
I'll be damned.
(ominous music continues)
Mmm,
get in line.
(The Boss sighs)
m*therf*cker
It really is a small town.
(scoffs)
It seems everywhere I go,
I seem to k*ll someone you love.
Surprised he didn't tell you
that it's an occupational hazard by now.
So's this.
You really think you're
gonna take me down,
I mean really take me down
before I spoil my supper?
Is she still alive?
Did you hypnotize her?
Sheriff had a g*n.
No, that's a good idea.
Stay down.
Don't look at him.
Yeah, look away. I dare you.
(power surging)
Hey, don't look at him.
Look away.
Look away!
Do not look at him. Turn away.
(sword schwings)
(ominous music)
I did owe you a fate
far worse than death.
(ominous music continues)
(stirring music)
g*dd*mn!
(Belko sighs)
(ominous music)
(sheath thuds)
(tense music)
(swords clanging)
(Belko grunts)
(tense music continues)
- (Belko grunts)
- (swords clanging)
(Belko grunting)
(tense music continues)
(swords clanging)
(Belko grunts)
(sword clangs)
(tense music continues)
(sword clangs)
(Belko grunts)
- (Belko groaning)
- (dramatic music)
(Belko grunting)
(Belko groaning)
(dramatic music continues)
(Belko groans)
(unsettling music)
(glass thuds)
(unsettling music continues)
Mmm.
Not bad, kid.
That was pretty quick.
I thought the old goat would've
given you more of a fight.
But it is a very cardio-heavy job.
You know, I could use your help,
that is if you have nothing better to do
with the rest of your unnatural life.
I do admire your can-do attitude.
(sword schwings)
(The Boss gasping)
Done.
(The Boss gasping)
Oh my god.
(The Boss laughing menacingly)
A vampire slayer doesn't
even know where the heart is?
(The Boss laughing maniacally)
To the left.
Thanks, hon.
(The Boss screams)
(Belko grunts)
(Belko sighs)
(Belko groaning)
(vampire rasping)
(vampire snarling)
(vampire screeches)
(Marlene grunts)
(Marlene gasping)
(The Boss gasps)
(The Boss grunts)
(body hissing)
(eerie music)
(The Boss screams)
(body continues hissing)
(jarring music)
(unsettling music)
(flesh squelches)
(unsettling music continues)
All right, well, that settles that.
What about the other vampires?
What do you,
that should k*ll the rest.
Did the guy tell you that?
No, I just assumed.
(Marlene sighs)
Oh, sh*t.
(Marlene grunts)
- (Belko grunts)
- (Lamont) Belko!
(Belko continues grunting)
Oh, no.
(Belko continues grunting)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Hey, you're good.
You're good.
(Belko sighs)
(Belko grunts)
Did you get him?
Yeah,
Yeah, I got him.
How about me?
How'd I do?
Are you alive?
Enough.
Not bad.
Alright, come on.
(Belko grunting)
(Marlene) Oh, God.
All right.
Almost there, yeah.
(truck door clicks)
Okay, come on, yeah. (Grunts)
Now, despite appearances,
I am not a medical professional,
but you're gonna wanna
keep an eye on that.
Yeah, I'll make sure he washes his hands,
changes his band-A*DS daily.
Yeah, I,
probably gotta get goin',
you know, before people
start asking questions.
That's not why you're going,
but,
thank you for lying.
You got away once and would've kept going
if there's any kinda justice in this life.
I can't stop you from gettin' away again.
I guess this is just
about the only thing
I've ever been good at, so...
The diner, the diner's
yours if you want it.
Mom's if you don't.
But, (sighs)
It's about the
only thing I got, so...
(tender music)
Maybe I'll see you on the
side of the road someday.
Hopefully not too soon.
Hm.
(tender music continues)
- (truck door thuds)
- (Belko grunts)
(truck door thuds)
You ready?
We'll see.
(engine roars)
(unsettling music)
Can't hide, can't hide,
can't hide from you
No matter how I run
Won't stop, won't
stop, won't stop until
The deed is done
I will last to let you,
let you think you've won
Then I will show you
darkness with the settin' sun
Surprise, surprise, surprise
I'm playing dead
I play so deep inside
your thrilling head
Surprise, surprise, I'm playing dead
Surprise, surprise,
surprise, I'm playing dead
(singer screams)
I live despite how hard you try
Outside the shadow of my soul
Hold on, hold on, hold on to you
'Cause I ain't lettin' go
So I am blind to let you
Let you think you've won, yeah
I will show you darkness
with the settin' sun
Surprise, surprise, surprise
I'm playing dead
I play so deep inside
your thrilling head
Surprise, surprise, I'm playing dead
Surprise, surprise,
surprise, I'm playing dead
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
I will let you think,
I will let you think
I will let you, let
you think you've won
I will show you
I will show you
I will show you darkness
with the settin' sun
Surprise, surprise, surprise
I'm playing dead
I play so deep inside
your thrilling head
Surprise, surprise, I'm playing dead
Surprise, surprise,
surprise, I'm playing dead
I'm playing dead
I play so deep inside
your thrilling head
Surprise, surprise, I'm playing dead
Surprise, surprise,
surprise, I'm playing dead
(singer screams)
(singer screams)
(singer screams)
(music fades)
