In this episode: George Sands (6), Herrick (4), Annie Sawyer (3), Mark (3), Mitchell (1), Kemp (1)

It was nothing really, just a small good deed in the darkness. But fate is always playing the long-game. They were just two souls united by fear and solitude. Lost in the dark. Fate pushed them together and now they were going to find out why.

If you're non-believers that's fine, we can just sit together for a few moments of quiet contemplation.

Contemplation about what?

The fiery oblivion that awaits all atheists?

Oh, it's not that. I'm Jewish and... [gestures to Mitchell] he's complicated.

Jewish people pray. I've seen Yentl.

You're very sarcastic for a vicar.

Yeah, so people tell me and I feel very bad about it, then I forgive myself.

[George encounters Herrick in the hospital canteen shortly after Mitchell has been staked]

George, George, it's fine. I'm not here to do anything to Mitchell. I mean, we'll get him but there's no hurry.

[George enters the undertakers and sees an old lady reading]

[To Herrick] I thought the whole undertaker thing was just a front?

Oh it is. That's Nanna, she's one of us. She sits there, reads the brochures. Good for appearances. [To the old lady] You alright Nanna?

NNanna

Oh, yes!

Oh, yes!

So a werewolf, a ghost and a vampire decide to live like humans do. They get jobs, a house and a TV license. They make friends they will lie to, take lovers they will infect-in fact, the only part of humanity they successfully adopt is its ability to deceive and destroy. All in all I'd say your little scheme has been something of a failure.

[To Herrick] Haven't you worked it out yet? Humanity is about love and sacrifice. This doesn't rob me of my humanity... [Stands upright, to illustrate his point] It proves it.

What happens next, Mitchell?

Yeah, is it over? Are we safe now?

Maybe Herrick was right, maybe some else will pick up where he left off.
