Nikola Tesla and Helen Magnus in “Sleepers”

Forgive me, Helen. It's just my soul-crushing depression talking. I'm not myself.

On the contrary; you are your real self again: human, mortal-

Watch your language.

I'm sorry, Nikola, but it's true. I've tried everything I can think of. There's simply no way to "re-vamp" you.

You see how this puts a crimp in my plans for world domination? Not to say I won't keep trying.

I would expect nothing less.

Very well, if this is to be a wake, then lets do it properly. Join me in a toast: To happier times, to those halcyon times of blood lust, now gone. Plus you got to admit vampires are just plain cool.

[laughing] Amen.

Here's to the glorious vampire race, once mighty, now extinct.
