Rudolph edit

  • I'll be thirteen again for the three-hundredth time. It's boring!
  • I don't know how you mortals can stand walking everywhere.
  • Hello!
  • Ready to fly?
  • You mortals! Always assuming!
  • Let's have some fun!
  • You are the strangest mortal.
  • Just tell yourself you're floating, like a leaf on the breeze.
  • It's still morning, I can tell. Do you want sunfried vampire on the menu?!
  • I'm a vampire, not a chicken!
  • Floating's boring!
  • You're not being cool at all!
  • This is gonna be some birthday.

Tony edit

  • How come I got the only room without garlic?
  • You are being so uncool!
  • Hey! Remember me? The kid who can't fly! You almost dropped me!
  • You bite it, you bought it.
  • (To Rookery) Do you always show up at the wrong time?!
  • Vampires and blood go together like... vampires and blood.
  • Not many hotel rooms come with coffins.
  • This is insane!

Dialogue edit

Rookery: Maney! (pounds on door) Maney! Maney, wake up! Get out of bed! I need my truck!
(Maney wakes up to unlock the door, but Rookery rams it open, knocking Maney on the ground)
Rookery: I need my truck.
Maney: In the middle of the night?
Rookery: Nighttime is my time. (slams the door shut, and chuckles) Quick, come on!
Maney: I've worked 48 hours straight. I need to sleep sometime.
Rookery: I don't pay you to sleep.
Maney: Speaking of payment...
Rookery: Boy... (chuckles) Maney, I've been thinking of taking you with me.
Maney: Huh? Me, hunting with you? It's what I've dreamed about. I've been waiting--
Rookery: Yes, good. Fascinating. You'll tell me more about it later. But first, show me my new light, and then we must hit the road. (about the vampires) They're swarming. I haven't seen anything like it in decades. (to Maney) Come, the lights!
(Maney turns the lights on with his remote control, it shines at Rookery)
Rookery: Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho! Excellent!
Maney: I can't say for sure, what an infective lab.
Rookery: We're about to find out.

Gregory: What are you doing here?
Rudolph: I followed you. I thought you were heading for trouble, and I was right.
Gregory: You little idiot.

Rudolph: Don't try to run! If I let you escape you'll put a pack of mortals on my trail!
Tony: Why would I do that? You haven't done anything to me.
Rudolph: (Slyly) So far...
Tony: I even like vampires.
Rudolph: (Sarcastically) Of course you do! I know what you're up to. I've been warned!
Tony: I'm... not... scared of you. I'm not!
Rudolph: (Laughing) You're not scared... you're not scared?
Tony: Who am I kidding? I'm terrified.
Rudolph: I had a scary night too... forget I said that!
Tony: Too late!

[When Tony sees his own reflection in a mirror and not Rudolph's.]
Tony: It's true! Vampires don't cast reflections.
Rudolph: (Smirking) Makes it hard to comb your hair.
Tony: You are so cool!
Rudolph: (Laughs) What does my temperature have to do with it?
Tony: No, cool. Like awesome, like sick!
Rudolph: (Feels his forehead) I feel fine.
Tony: (Laughs) You've got a lot to learn, vampire.

Tony: So... you're not gonna bite me?
Rudolph: (Teasingly) Hmmm, time will tell.

Tony: Trust me.
Rudolph: I never thought I'd say this to a mortal, but... I do trust you.

Tony: Me and Rudolph are astronauts, remember?
Mr. Thompson: I liked Rudolph. Even wrapped in foil.

Tony: Rudolph?
Rudolph: Who did you expect, Count Dracula?

[When Rudolph is showing Tony how to fly.]
Tony: Sick.
Rudolph: Yes, it is excellent, isn't it?
Tony: No. I'm getting sick. As in barf!

Mr. Thompson: You're new friends are fantastic. Even if they are...
Tony: Vampires?
Mr. Thompson: European.

Tony: There is one big no-no.
Rudolph: What, no pillow fighting?

Rudolph: My problems are nothing to do with you.
Tony: That's such a stupid thing for a friend to say!
[Rudolph looks both taken aback and touched.]
Rudolph: Friend?
Tony: Yeah, friend.

[Rudolph and Tony are standing on a roof preparing to fly.]
Tony: (Nervously) Ok, ok. I can so do this, I mean, the worse that can happen is...
Rudolph: (Casually) You fall a few hundred feet.

[Tony is shivering after having been rescued from a lake by Rudolph and Anna.]
Anna: You're freezing. We'll go to your room and find you dry clothes.
Rudolph: Not necessary.
[He throws Tony into the air and he spins around repeatedly before Rudolph grabs his hand again.]
Tony: Oh, man! I'm dizzy!
Rudolph: But dry!

Rudolph: Come on, Gregory. Shake Tony's hand. He's cool!
[After a brief moment, Gregory's angry look fades and he smiles, shaking Tony's hand.]
Gregory: Gregory Sackville-Bagg. But what's your temperature got to do with anything?
Rudolph: You've got a lot to learn, big brother!

[Tony jumps on a newly sired vampire cow, which takes him flying.]
Rudolph: (to Gregory) It's called playing. I know, you hate it.
Gregory: It doesn't look so bad.

Rudolph: Ready to meet my parents?
Tony: They said yes?
Rudolph: Well, they didn't say no.
Tony: I just hope they don't suck.
Rudolph: What?
Tony: A joke.
Rudolph: Oh. (Laughs) I don't get it.

Tony: Can't you put a spell on them like Anna did?
Rudolph: Eurgh, that's a girl thing.
Tony: It's a vampire thing. Try it.
[Rudolph swoops down behind the two vampire hunters, speaking in a powerful voice.]
Rudolph: BY THE DARK POWER THAT RESIDES WITHIN ME, I BEND YOU TO MY WILL!
Rookery: (Passive) No, you don't. I don't feel a thing, except homicidal.
Rudolph: (to Tony) I told you it was a girl thing.

Rudolph: This becoming a bit of a habit. You get yourself stuck in some horrible mess, and then I come to your rescue.
Tony: Me? Well, what about you?
Rudolph: Well, I guess that's what friends are for.

Rookery: Eew! You smell horrible. You need a shower!
Maney: All I need is a shower and You need a "psychologist" or a physiologist!
