JessicaI have a hunger in the very center of me and this, you and me, I can’t it’s not enough, I wish it was because I love you and don’t want to hurt you, but it’s just not enough, it isn’t sorry.
Jessica(really angry) I'm gonna go find someone to eat!
Jessica(to Jason, after they have sex) I am not gonna glamour you just because you don't want to feel guilty!
JessicaI'm so sick of silvering myself all day every day. I’m pissed off all the time. This is what PMS used to feel like.
JessicaWhen you summoned me, Bill, you almost tore me apart. I want you to hear me because when we left you at the authority that was not Bill Compton that we were leaving, you were a fucking monster. And when your pull lead me here, I had no idea what I was going to find, I had no idea what I was walking into and I still don't.
JessicaThe vampire you told me about earlier, the vampire being dragged by a truck, its happening now what you saw before. You can see the future?
JessicaI trust Bill, but I also know there is a fight going on inside you between Bill and Lilith and I just want to make sure she doesn't win tonight. Those girls are also the same age I was when you turned me. If anything were to happen to them I'd never forgive myself.
JessicaJason has my blood in him. He couldn't stop wanting me even if he tried.
JessicaDon't drink the blood!!!
Jessica, stop!
JessicaNo!
Stop!
JessicaWhy?
Because we need to talk.
JessicaWhy?
Because there are things you must learn.
JessicaWhy?
Because you are no longer human.
JessicaWhy?
Because I've been trying to explain to you at length - you have been made vampire!
JessicaWhy?
Because you were unlucky. Because life and death are unfair. Because of me.
...
JessicaI'm so hungry and all you do is talk and I'm starving and you're so mean. You're supposed to take care of me, that's what you said. You suck! [laughs] That's funny 'cause you do suck.
[at Fangtasia, about Jessica]
She's your punishment, not mine. What am I supposed to do with her?
JessicaExcuse me! I can hear you, mister rude! I wanna go to the bar. I wanna be one of those dancers. I'm hungry.
She won't listen to me! It will take more time than I have to teach her obedience.
JessicaI don't obey anybody! Those days are over.
Can't handle one little girl, Bill? New ones can be like this. Man up my friend. She's not even one night old.
That is not the issue!
[to Jessica] You want to stay with you maker, don't you?
JessicaNo, he's a dick! Dick! Dick! Dick!... You're cute. Can I sit in your lap?
No.
JessicaWhy? Nobody let's me have any fun. Fuckers!
[to Jessica] Sit down and shut up! Close the door. [turning to Bill] See, you have to be tough with them or they'll walk all over you.
I am well aware of that, but you can see how she is and there are urgent matters to which I must attend!
Sookie Stackhouse? Haven't you done enough for her?
If any harm were to come to her because of my absence, you would be...
[looks at Bill threateningly] What?
Without her helpful skills.
JessicaLet me out! I wanna do something bad!
I would be in your debt. I would return the favor.
Oh, yes you will. You most definitely will. Jessica!
JessicaYou don't have to yell at me!
How would you like to learn how a real vampire feeds?
JessicaOh yes sir. Please sir.
[to Bill] See? It's really quite easy.
[Bill is trying to explain to Jessica what's happened to her]
You drank from me. Your blood was replaced with mine. And then I shared my essence with you when we slept together in the ground. [Jessica makes a face at him]
JessicaEww...
No, no, not intercourse!
Jessica[scoffs] You just said "intercourse".
It's tradition. It's part of the process. It's--it's magical. Even we don't fully understand how it works.
JessicaYeah? Well all I know is, staying out all night like this? My daddy's gonna whup you good. Mister, you better get me home right now. [tries to walk away; Bill grabs her and makes her sit down]
Jessica, stop!
JessicaNo!
Stop!
JessicaWhy?
Because we need to talk.
Jessica[sarcastically] Why?
Because there are things you must learn.
JessicaWhy?
Because you are no longer human.
JessicaWhy?
Because as I've been trying to explain to you at length, you have been made vampire!
Jessica[shocked] ...Why?
Because you were unlucky. Because life and death are unfair. Because of me. You cannot go home. That part of your life is over.
Jessica[crestfallen] No more momma and daddy? [beat] No more little sister?
[puts a hand on Jessica's cheek] I'm sorry. No.
JessicaNo more belts. [smiles] No more clarinets! No more...homeschool! No more rules! [Jessica screams and does a happy dance] I'M A VAMPIRE! [exhales] WOW! [walks off]
No! No! No! There are rules! That's what I've been trying to teach you!
JessicaCrap on your rules! Crap, crap, crap! Oh I can say anything I want now! Shit, shit, shit, damn, hell, fuck! "Fuck", that's a bad word! Fuck, fuck, fuck! Oh, what's another cuss word so I can say it? I'm a damn vampire! [twirls around]
If you calm down, I will teach you what being a vampire means.
JessicaI'm not stupid! I can read! I know what it means!
Very well then. Why don't you tell me.
JessicaIt means that I don't have to sit like a lady. And I can kill anybody I want. And there's an awful lot of people I'd like to kill.
No, Jessica, you absolutely cannot kill anybody you want.
Jessica[pouting] But why?! Why?! I want to kill them.
With your new powers come new responsibilities. [Jessica moans] You are gonna mainstream like I did. You can almost exactly the same life as you did before, except you'll be awake at night.
JessicaI want to kill people. And I'm so hungry and all you do is talk and I'm starving and you are so mean! You're supposed to take care of me, that's what you said! And no, you suck! [laughs] That's funny, 'cause you do suck. [Bill grabs a bottle from his four-pack of Tru Blood]
Here, drink this, it might make you feel more steady, I hope. [Jessica takes a swig of Tru Blood and immediately spits it out]
JessicaUgh, it tastes like shit! Why are you doing this to me? Ew!
It's not bad. You'll get used to it. Try a little more!
JessicaFuck, no! And you can't force me, I'll report you.
Oh really? To who?
JessicaOh, to a real vampire who'll kick your ass! You won't let me do anything and I'm so hungry! YOU ARE THE WORST. MAKER. EVER! [weeps]
[Jessica enters the room]
JessicaHi Daddy.
[Eric and Pam enter the room]
What is this?
There are favors, and there are favors.
She is extremely annoying.
You can't do this! We had a deal!
Yeah, well now the terms have changed. She's yours. Unless you want to give me Sookie...
[Bill and Eric bare their fangs]
[Eric laughs] It's just a suggestion. [Eric retracts his fangs] Though a few nights with this one may change your mind.
[Eric begins to leave]
Good luck.
[in Swedish] O du ljuva frihet. (Oh sweet freedom)
[Pam laughs]
[to Jessica] Your bedtime will be at 4 a.m. and not a minute later.
JessicaWhatever...
And whilst you're under my roof, hunting is completely forbidden...
JessicaLike I'd know where to find people in this bumfuck town. Are we even in a town?
We also recycle in this house. [places a recycling bin and small garbage can in front of Jessica] Tru Blood and other glass items go in the blue container. And paper products go in the white container. [Bill's cell phone rings]
JessicaOooh! Can I have one of those?
No!
[as she starts to cry] Jessica... I'm sorry.
JessicaNow, why are you crying?
Because I did this to you. If Bill hadn't... I took your life away and I know there's no way you'll ever be able to forgive me. It's not even right to ask. But I had no idea it was gonna lead to this.
JessicaI don't blame you, Sookie.
