Dr. Edgar Vance
- Dr. Edgar Vance: Do you know what day it is?
- [Blade declines to answer]
- Dr. Edgar Vance: How 'bout the president? You know who that is. Who's in the White House, right now?
- Blade: An asshole.
- [while Blade is restrained, Vance injects him with a sedative]
- Dr. Edgar Vance: You don't have a problem with needles, do you? There! That wasn't so bad, was it?
- [he leans closer, and Blade hears him through a haze]
- Dr. Edgar Vance: Oh, you're weak. In need of your serum. That must be a bad feeling. I mean, that a mere human like me could have over-powered you?
- Blade: [realizes] You're one of them. A familiar.
- [Vance shows Blade a glyph tattoo on his wrist]
- Dr. Edgar Vance: Going on five years now. It's the endgame, Blade. All their plans are coming to fruition. Why don't you just sit back, and enjoy the show?
- Blade: [Blade is bobbing Hoop up and down over the edge of a building] Eventually, you know, your head is gonna pop off.
- Hoop: Fuck, no, no! Please, please, please!
- Blade: Who's your handler?
- Hoop: I don't know my fucking handler! I swear, I swear!
- [Blade loosens his grip]
- Hoop: Oh, shit! Please! Please!
- [a cell phone rings. Blade looks at Abbie and Hannibal, who shrug, then down at the familiar]
- Blade: Oh, it's you! I'll take that. Come on! Let's go, come on!
- [Hoop hands his cell to Blade]
- Dr. Edgar Vance: Hello? Hello? Hello, this is Dr. Vance. You paged me?
- Blade: [chuckles] It's for you. Yeah, go ahead.
- [Blade hands the phone back. Hoop puts it to his ear]
- Hoop: Hello...?
- [Blade lets go]
- Hoop: Aaaaaaahhhhhhhh!
- [thud]
