[Love Will Have It's Sacrifices plays]
Heh.
Of course they'll be thrilled to see all of you.
We're just in here for...um...
board games night!
Seriously?
It's after one a.m. and you're playing a rousing game of...
dusty squares...
It's the ancient game of Sekhmet!
Senet.
Yeah. That one.
Fun for the whole family!
Dude, is there blood on the throw?
Oh, um, well that just must of been from when I was pickling beets earlier.
We're sorry to bother you guys, but we cornered a couple of vampires on the North Quad, and we thought they fled this way.
Uh, no we haven't seen any vampires, right guys?
No, no vampires here. / Total absence of bloodsuckers.
Well. Alright then. I guess we'll just keep looking.
Are you seriously going to let them get away with that?
Get away with what?
Pickled beets?
Game night?
Laura's my friend. If she says they aren't here -
they aren't here.
Yeah, I've heard plenty about how friendly you two are.
Excuse me?/ Waaaay uncool, bro.
I know you've got your jock in a bunch because you're taking my orders but you do not want to go there, muscle-mouth.
How about you start canvassing the next building over -
wouldn't want the trail to get cold.
Uhhh.
Theo?
Dude, D-bear just gave us an order.
Mmhm
Wilson, this hopeless crush of yours is, uh, really starting to annoy.
Mel, how 'bout you go with them, make sure they don't cause any trouble.
You know, I can't believe you lost the election and I wound up taking orders from you anyway.
Yeah, well, life's cruel.
Always a pleasure to see you out.
[Shoo]
[sigh]
Tell me you weren't lying.
Tell me they aren't here.
Do you need either of those statements to be true?
Laura!
I know, you're already taking a huge risk covering for us with J.P.
I'm happy to cover for you. It's -
it's not perfect. But...
things are getting better.
and if they've some nefarious plot to end that -
They promised they wouldn't hurt anyone.
Because vampires are notorious for keeping their promises.
She saved us. I can't just turn her in.
If things go sideways, I'll put you down for the first, "I told you so."
Please don't make me use it.
Danny?
Can I ask you something?
In addition to covering for you while you hide vampires in your apartment?
Yeah, sure.
Um...
Do you really think that things are getting better?
Well...
Yeah. Mostly, yeah.
Because we're starting to hear rumors.
About what?
That it isn't just vampires being picked up by safety patrols.
That any classes Vordenberg doesn't approve of are being cancelled -
Well, half of our classes are still on hiatus -
They detained Professor Cochrane.
She did turn out to be a reanimated corpse of a reporter from the 1800s.
She was still a good teacher!
And all she did was question whether the searches and patrols violate student rights.
It's just until things get back to normal.
And you really think that's going to be anytime soon?
I think -
We got this far.
We can figure the rest out?
In the meantime -
be careful.
Those aren't kittens under your floor boards.
You knew?
You moved the desk. Real subtle.
[Snort]
See you later, Hollis.
Not that we don't appreciate the hospitality, but the accomodations leave something to be desired.
Really? You aren't right at home with the creepy crawlies?
We need to find somewhere else to hole up. It's only a matter of time before Xena drops the dime on us.
No, there's no way that Danny would be okay with something like that -
and there are patrols all over the campus.
You should...just stay here.
Look. You really don't have to do that crea-
Oh joy! Back with more recriminations?
What the -
[Screaming]
Back with Holy Water. I am done being afraid of you. You're going to confess what you did or you're going to die screaming.
