Quotes 

• Robin Pierce : I'm the owner of the pants you've been trying to get into for the past four years.

• Robin Pierce : [emerging from a coffin, smirking]  You're too late.

  Countess : You couldn't have! You've been in there for less than a minute.

  [Mark emerges from the coffin smirking] 

  Countess : [dejectedly]  You could've...

  [raises an eyebrow] 

  Countess : ...but you didn't have time to enjoy it.

• Robin Pierce : Ow. You bit my lip.

  Mark Kendall : I did?

  Robin Pierce : Yeah.

  Mark Kendall : Well you shouldn't be so sweet.

• Robin : Could one of these lady vampires actually bite a guy? You know, like a teenage guy?

  Bookseller : Well how old would he be?

  Robin : Like, 18.

  Bookseller : Well I seriously doubt it. You see the female vampire needs the blood of a virgin, and an 18-year-old boy would hardly be a virgin, now would he?

  Robin : Well just hypothetically, what if he was a virgin?

  Bookseller : Well then I think he has a lot bigger problems to worry about than female vampires.

  [chuckles] 

• Mark Kendall : Oh, Robin, PLEASE?

  Robin Pierce : Mark, we've been through this sex thing a million times.

  Mark Kendall : Half way through it a million times. It's what people do when they're in love! It's natural. It's right.

  Robin Pierce : Well it's not natural or right for me to do it in a car.

  Mark Kendall : What about an ice cream truck?

• Robin : Mark, what is it?

  Mark Kendall : [after witnessing about being invisible in a mirror]  Look! I'm not there! Look! I swear I wasn't there a minute ago. It was that woman.

  Robin : The one who bit your buttons?

  Mark Kendall : I think she is a vampire and I think she has turned me into one.

  Robin : Turning you into a vampire?

  Mark Kendall : That's why I couldn't see myself. Vampires don't have a reflection.

• Mark Kendall : You know, maybe the Countess is right. It would be better slower.

  Robin Pierce : Let's find out.

  Mark Kendall : [as he closes the coffin]  I believe I've created a monster.

• Robin Pierce : I want to, I really do. But I want it to be special.
