(upbeat music)
(Marceline hisses)
(Finn shouts)
- Hey guys, what's up?
I'm Marceline, the Vampire Queen.
- Are you gonna smash my skull
and breathe my blood mist?
- Don't suck our blood!
- (laughs) Calm down, weenies.
I'm not gonna do that.
(fire whooshes)
- So you don't suck blood?
- Sometimes I do,
but it's not the blood that I like, it's the color.
I eat shades of red.
- Golly.
(Marceline slurping)
(Marceline laughs)
- [Finn] Marceline is not how she seems.
She's a radical dame who likes to play games.
- Let's get even.
Teach old greasy locks a lesson. (laughs)
- You're bad and I like it.
Boo! - Boo yeah!
I don't want to be a vampire anymore.
- (gasps) Oh, my globness.
- You said you were working on a cure, right?
- Well, the machine is built and the serums are ready,
but are you sure you want to do this?
- I'm sure.
Some bad things happened to me when I was little.

Huh?
- Oh, oh, are they good lyrics?
I'll get the keyboard!
- What?
Wait, listen!
(keyboard buzzes)
- Yeah, let's go, what's it say?
Sing out, sister.

You don't remember what it means?
- Marcy, look, I found chicken soup.
You're gonna feel awesome in a moment.
- I'm just glad you're okay.
- Do you feel awesome?
- Mm-hmm.
I love you, Simon.
- I love you, Gunther.
- Seriously, Simon, please don't go.
- [Simon] I have to protect you.
- How can you protect me if you're not even here?
- I'll arrange for someone to come take care of you.
I'll make sure he doesn't leave.
- Please, Simon.
I could help you with this.
- Yeah, maybe one day you will.
But until then, you have to stay brave,
my fearless Marceline.
(ice scraping)
- Ouch!
- You see?
I have to go now!
Goodbye, Marcy.
- Wait, no!
Wait!
(Marceline grunts)
Simon!
(wind whooshing)
- Pretty heavy. - Whoa, mama.
- Whoa, so what happened next?
How's it end?
- Well, little Marcy felt a lot better,
and she and Simon lived happily ever after.
Simon?
(penguin quacks)
(liquid splashing)
(penguin quacks)
Simon!
- Marceline!
(gentle music)
- I thought I'd never see you again.
- I can hardly believe it myself.
You're all grown up.
- Believe!
She's like a million years old.
- 1 million years?
How could it be?
- He's just kidding.
I'm only 1,000.
(wall crashing)
- Marceline!
Long time no see.
Some goober with glasses summoned me.
What's that thing?
Just gonna put this here, okay?
Now let's go suck some souls!
- (sputters) Marceline!
♪ Daddy, why did you eat my fries ♪
♪ I bought them, and they were mine ♪
♪ But you ate them, yeah, you ate my fries ♪
♪ And I cried, but you didn't see me cry ♪
♪ Daddy, do you even love me ♪
♪ Well, I wish you'd show it ♪
♪ 'Cause I wouldn't know it ♪
- Marceline, you really feel this way?
- Dad, I...
♪ In the eyes ♪
- Marceline, of course I love you.
- Dad.
- I'm sorry I ate your fries.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
- It's okay, Dad.
It's really okay.
- No, it's not okay.
They weren't even very good.
They were really cold.
I love you, Marceline.
Don't you ever doubt that.
- I love you too, Dad.
Dad, you tricked me.
Dad, that's sucks!
- I know, I'm sorry.
But I thought you'd want to,
want to make your old man proud,
and you know, take over the Nightosphere.
- Yeah, I want you to be proud.
I want you to be proud of me.
- No, I didn't mean...
Baby, of course I'm proud of you.
- Dad.
- And your friends?
They're all right!
That political rap, pretty great.
- Okay, okay, I gotta go now, Dad.
(wood creaking)
Woof.
When I became a vampire, I was just a messed up kid.
(monster snarling)
- No!
(fangs slurping)
(Marceline screams)
(light whooshing)
Now it's 1,000 years later and I'm still messed up.
(gentle music)
I don't want to spend eternity like this.
With this emptiness.
I want to grow up.
- Okay, let's do this.
This operation might not even work.
(light whooshing)
- Whoa!
This tickles really bad!
What?
(bite marks fizzling)
- Marceline, you're not dead, woo!
- P.B.'s cure, it must have worked!
No soy vampire.
Also untie me, please!
What about the paste you took out of me?
That should be all that's left
that's vampiric in the modern world.
- It's all over there, safely in the safety bucket.
- Bucky.
- [Peppermint Butler] No!
(explosion booming)
(ominous music)
(cloud creature roars)
(magical whirring)
- Oh, boy.
Whew, I am famished.
(mouth whirring)
(cloud creature shrieking)
- [Cow] Whoa!
(cloud creature shrieking)
(fangs slicing)
(Marceline gasps)
(crowd murmuring)
(injuries whooshing)
- [Princess Bubblegum] Marceline?
Marceline, Marceline, Marceline?
- [Finn] Marceline?
- Sorry, what?
- Are you...
Uh, do you feel bad?
I don't want to say like,
I'm sorry about who you are or anything
if you're feeling okay,
but I don't know how bad news all this is, right?
(gentle music)
- Nah, I'm cool being a vampire again.
Being mortal was good.
At the same time, it was terrifying.
Now I'm a vampire with fresh mortal memories
and I don't know, more empathy or something?
More grown up.
Bonnie, thank you for helping me grow up.
Now I guess we get to hang out together forever.
(door creaks)
- Take care! - See ya, Marcy!
- Later, Vampire Queen.

- He's left me no choice.
The attack begins now.
(handle whirring)
- A word?
- All right, just make it quick.
Please.
- Well, I know you're under a lot of pressure here,
but I just want to ask you to reconsider.
I mean, I don't like to flaunt my suffering cred,
but I've lived through something like this once before,
and...
(flames whooshing)
(explosion crashing)
I'm just not really trying to help start that all up again.
- I understand, Marceline.
I really do.
But I just can't see another way out of this.
Look, I've got to go.
Let's talk more when this is all over.
Wish me luck, okay?
(monster screeching)
- [Princess Bubblegum] No, no, no, no, no!
No!
(fist smashing)
- Bonnie!
(whooshing)
(cloud creature shrieking)
(monsters thudding)
(creatures screeching)
(creature thudding)
- Thanks.
(cloud creature whooshing)
(Marceline gasping)
- Marcy?
- You're okay!
- My armor has an emergency.
- [Marceline] You scared me!
- What?
- Even back when we weren't talking,
I was so afraid something bad would happen to you
and I wouldn't be there to protect you,
and I don't want to lose you again.
- Hey, I'm a tough gum.
Nothing never happening to me.
Never.
- I know, I'm...
Girl, you phrased that so weird.
- I might have a concussion.
