[while he is digging a grave for Jessica, to Pam] Would you leave her alone!
It's your own fault. You and your insane affection for stupid cows.
I wouldn't be here if the magister could trust you.
I fulfilled the conditions of my sentence! I murdered this innocent girl.
It was no murder. You drained her blood and gave her yours.
Yes. But you're romantic, you're sentimental. You might do something to keep the little blood bag from joinin' our ranks. I follow my orders. I won't let you stake her before she goes to ground!
I'm not gonna stake her. I'm gonna set her free.
You've already set her free. The same as Eric freed me.
Everyone she's ever known will recoil from her. Everything she has ever loved has been stolen from her.
Oh please! There's no comparison. You've given that pathetic lump of temporary flesh...
The ultimate gift. You're a maker. You're a hero.
I find myself doubting whether you were ever truly human.
[at Fangtasia, about Jessica]
She's your punishment, not mine. What am I supposed to do with her?
Excuse 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.
I 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.
[to Jessica] You want to stay with you maker, don't you?
No, he's a dick! Dick! Dick! Dick!... You're cute. Can I sit in your lap?
Why? 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.
Let 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!
You don't have to yell at me!
How would you like to learn how a real vampire feeds?
[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]
[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.
Yeah? 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]
Because there are things you must learn.
Because you are no longer human.
Because as I've been trying to explain to you at length, you have been made vampire!
Because you were unlucky. Because life and death are unfair. Because of me. You cannot go home. That part of your life is over.
[crestfallen] No more momma and daddy? [beat] No more little sister?
[puts a hand on Jessica's cheek] I'm sorry. No.
No 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!
Crap 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.
I'm not stupid! I can read! I know what it means!
Very well then. Why don't you tell me.
It 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.
[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.
I 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]
Ugh, 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!
Fuck, no! And you can't force me, I'll report you.
Oh, 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]
