[SIGHS]

Let's call it.

Note the time.

It's 12:36.

Death occurred at 12:36 a.m.

Call the M.E.

[SIGHS]

Deceased is identified as metro police detective...

Nicholas Knight.

[♪]

[♪]

[♪]

NARRATOR: He was brought across in 1228.

Preyed on humans for their blood.

Now he wants to be mortal again...

to repay society for his sins...

to emerge from his world of darkness...

from his endless forever night.

[GROWLS]

[♪]

We tried our best, but he didn't make it.

I'm sorry.

Thanks, doctor.

NURSE [OVER PA]: ...to cardiology. Dr. Wong to cardiology.

[SOBBING] I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, captain.

Hey, come on, now.

You did the best you could.

We'll get through this.

It's all my fault.

Listen to me, Tracy.

It's nobody's fault but the person who pulled that trigger.

Now, come on, you gotta talk to me.

Tell me what happened.

I don't know.

It all happened so fast.

[♪]

I tried to help him.

There was nothing I could do.

Tell me about the shooter.

I didn't get a good look at him.

Where is he?

Natalie...

he didn't make it.

Please just tell me. Where is Nick?

You can call downstairs

and tell 'em we got a pickup. Okay.

[INHALES SHARPLY]

[♪]

Dr. Turner...

Dr. Turner?

[GASPS] He's alive.

Well, then you better go get some help.

Oh, boy, Nick,

how are we gonna talk our way outta this one, huh?

...breathing reaction to all the drugs in his system.

Uh, don't do that. I've done it.

I also took his blood pressure.

It's 110 over 60 and stabilizing.

Let's get a team in here stat.

A little bit off your beat, aren't you, Dr. Lambert?

Oh, well, I'm a close personal friend of the revived.

Well, your friend's a miracle man.

Maybe it wasn't as serious as you first thought.

You tell me.

Take a look at this head wo--

Let's get him to X-ray and surgery now!

Let's go, let's go, let's go, people. Come on.

Come on. Watch your back.

Coming through here.

Tracy, I've seen it happen before to lots of cops.

Now, just give yourself some time.

It'll come back to you.

But I'm trained for exactly this situation.

Give yourself a break. And that's an order.

He's alive.

But the doctor pronounced him dead.

Nick went into a temporary cardiac arrest.

With that kind of a shock to the system it's not unusual.

Is he gonna live?

Well, he's still in a coma,

but I have a feeling that he's gonna pull through.

[SIGHS]

Where'd you get that coffee?

Uh, you want one? Yeah.

This is wrong.

We should be talking about this guy in the past tense.

LACROIX: Perhaps you need a second opinion, doctor.

Look at it, half his brain's been scrambled.

The sad thing about x-rays,

they tend to be flawed sometimes.

I think this is one of those times, don't you?

One of those times.

Detective Knight is one of the luckiest men alive, isn't he?

The luckiest man alive.

I want you to listen very carefully

to what I have to say to you.

The injuries were nowhere near as life-threatening

as they at first seemed.

The bullet glanced off the good detective's very thick skull

and caused minimal damage.

You expect him to regain consciousness very soon.

And when he does, you will release him

and say...

that he is-- Is a most

remarkable case.

A remarkable case.

I'm so glad we concur, doctor.

The bullet glanced off the good detective's very thick skull.

He is the luckiest man alive.

His injuries were nowhere near as life threatening

as they might have seemed.

Well, um, when can we talk to him?

He'll regain consciousness soon, then I'll release him.

A remarkable recovery.

Well, huh,

I think I'm going back to the shop,

tell everyone the good news.

Anybody need a ride?

No, no, I think I'll stay a while.

Yeah, me too.

Just a little longer.

I'd like to see him if I could.

I think I can arrange that.

Come on.

[♪]

Poor Nicholas.

See where your mortal fascination has led you?

I suppose this was something important, wasn't it?

Quid pro quo, Nicholas.

I always pay my debts.

[♪]

[SHOUTING]

[YELLING CONTINUES]

[HEART BEATING]

[PANTS]

[GASPS]

[GAGGING]

Quid pro quo.

I do hope this wave of altruism passes quickly.

It's quite distressing.

Heh.

Welcome back to the world of the living.

Such as it is.

[SIGHS]

I, uh-- I looked in on him a few minutes ago

and he was awake.

Hey, you're up.

How you doing?

My head is killing me.

Well, it's not surprising

considering somebody tried to blow it off.

I mean, you were shot in the head.

I had to do some pretty fast work--

Shot?

Who? Who--

That's what everyone's hoping you'll be able to tell them.

No, I mean, who are you?

Come on, Nick. You're scaring me.

[♪]

Who am I, Nick?

Say my name.

I'm sorry.

I don't know who you are.

REESE: Amnesia?

Well, I guess it beats being dead.

How long do you think it'll last?

It's hard to say.

With retrograde amnesia victims,

it's tough to predict when they'll come out of it.

I've heard of cases where the condition never clears up.

But other than that he's gonna make it?

Well, he's gonna live.

So far there's no apparent dysfunction,

other than the fact that he has no idea who he is.

Or where he came from.

He knows nothing about his past.

Well, Nick is the only one

who can tell us what happened last night.

We gotta jog his memory, if we can.

Let me take Nick home to his place.

Get him back in some familiar territory, see what happens.

Will that help?

It might.

Nick has no family, I'm a doctor.

What could be better?

Let's do it.

Nick, you're eating.

[LAUGHS]

He's actually eating.

That's a good sign, Nick. You're coming along great.

Do you recognize these people?

Well, um, I remember Dr. Lambert,

but I'm sorry, I don't know who you are.

Uh, Joe Reese.

Metro police.

Am I in trouble?

No, Captain Reese is your boss, Nick.

You're a police officer.

REESE: A detective.

Homicide division, 96th precinct.

Nick, um, last night you were involved in a shooting.

Someone tried very hard to kill you and your partner.

Is he dead?

No, she's fine, Nick.

REESE: But Detective Vetter can't give us

the whole story of how it happened.

We need you to fill in the blanks.

Nick, you went to the parade warehouse

near the 401 and Keele.

Do you remember what happened after that?

[♪]

It's weird, but I do remember something.

In cases like yours,

some short-term memories can be recalled.

There was a loud noise and a bright light.

Like a-- A bolt of lightning in my head

a-and then this burning sensation.

And then it all went black.

I'm gonna release you to Dr. Lambert's care.

She's gonna to take you home and stay with you.

Nick?

Uh-- Sure.

Whatever you say.

If it's all right with Dr. Lambert.

Please, uh, call me, Natalie.

Natalie.

Captain, I'll-- I'll-- I'll keep trying.

That's okay. Look, you give me a call

the minute anything more starts coming back to you.

And Nick, uh, I just wanna tell you

there were a whole lot of people

who were praying for you last night.

And we're very happy you're back.

You get well, now, but you go easy.

Okay?

Sure.

I'm trying.

It's just really hazy.

I realize how difficult it must be, Detective Vetter,

but we have to get to the bottom of this.

Now, according to the dispatch log

you and Knight went to a warehouse at 139 Dunsany.

VETTER: Right.

It's a warehouse where the city keeps all the parade floats.

Christmas stuff.

Nick got a call, an informant had something for him.

About what?

About an unsolved from a few years back.

The Yorkville Ripper.

[SCOFFS]

Everybody and his dog has a theory on that one.

It seemed like a normal, everyday meet.

We got there, went inside...

[♪]

The minute we got in, we sensed something was wrong.

We split up. It was dark.

No one was there.

[♪]

I remember thinking to myself, maybe I'm just spooking myself.

Maybe it's just a prank.

[GUNSHOT] I didn't see his face.

I-- I can't remember seeing his face.

Uh, maybe-- Maybe a flash of it.

A glint of something.

Something else about the guy.

What he was wearing.

What he had on, it-- It wasn't nor--

I just-- I can't get it clear in my mind.

Guys--

Just a few more questions, captain.

Look.

Forensics recovered this from the scene.

Do you know what it is?

No.

MAN: It's a cop-killer.

Teflon-coated.

It goes through Kevlar like it was tissue.

Nick was shot with one of these.

Well, it seems your guy was gunning for cops.

MAN: So now do you understand

why it's so important for us to get to the bottom of this?

It's a little dark, isn't it?

That's the way you like it.

Ah, here we are.

You remember when that was taken?

No, I'm sorry, I don't.

Well, it was last year on your birthday.

You and I went out to dinner to celebrate.

Do you remember which birthday that was?

[CHUCKLES]

All right. Let me guess. Um...

somewhere between 30 and 40.

Oh, you are so far off I cannot begin to tell you.

[PLAYING BEETHOVEN'S "FÜR ELISE"]

How about that?

It's a beautiful piece. You remember what it's called?

No, I don't.

[♪]

But it's by Beethoven, isn't it?

Very good.

You know it was strange, when I was playing it I-I--

I remember being with a friend and he was jotting down

notes and stuff while I was playing it.

With a quill.

He was hard of hearing. It's weird.

LAMBERT: Okay.

I'm gonna go out for a bit.

In my line of work, can't let things pile up.

It can get very unpleasant.

That's right, you're a doctor, aren't you?

Actually, I'm a pathologist.

Ach.

Do me one little favor, will you?

While I'm out?

Stay put.

Get some rest and if you feel hungry,

oh, by all means,

eat something.

Thanks I am a bit hungry.

That hospital food was dreadful.

Just remember: an apple a day, keeps the coroner away.

I wouldn't want to do that now, would I?

I gotta go.

[♪]

Is that any way to treat your savior, Nicholas?

How did you get in here?

I have an open invitation.

[SIGHS]

You're the doctor from the hospital.

Oh, I'm much more than that.

Doesn't the sensation that you're feeling right now

tell you that I'm much more than that?

We have a very special relationship, Nicholas.

Cast your memory back as best you can.

I'm your oldest friend.

We've been through so much together.

[GASPS]

Nicholas,

be so good as to relieve me of this, will you?

Only if you tell me first how it got there.

An instant of improvidence.

A soldier's last lucky blow in battle.

[EXPLOSIONS IN DISTANCE]

I was about to dispense a merciful end to his suffering

when he managed to inflict this inconvenience on me.

Such ingratitude.

Yes. It is...

increasingly unpleasant and more than a little annoying.

The soldier has been dispatched to hell,

as I will shortly be if you do not help me, that is.

It's an interesting dilemma, isn't it?

Yes. I wish you would remember

that our relationship hasn't always been this difficult.

I will help you.

And then I will go on my own way without you.

It's time I moved on.

[BUGLES IN DISTANCE]

At least for a while.

Oh, of course.

I only hope that you will consider that you chose

to remain with me for so long of your own volition.

You really do like me.

You just don't know that you do.

Now... s'il vous plait.

[SCREAMS]

KNIGHT: I don't remember you.

But if you do know me as well as you say you do,

Help me, tell me who I am.

It's not so much who you are, Nicholas,

as what you are.

You are extraordinary.

[SCOFFS]

You're a killer.

Well, if you don't believe me,

why don't you go outside

and rediscover yourself for yourself?

Good evening.

Dr. Lambert, isn't it.

I know who you are.

How flattering.

My reputation has preceded me.

Thank you for helping to cover for him in the hospital.

Yeah.

Made quite a good team, didn't we?

It really was quite fun.

Was.

But now I think that you should leave him alone.

Whatever you say.

I trust that you will inform him

of his special nature and needs in my absence.

Perhaps not.

Perhaps you will use this opportunity

to try to accomplish the impossible.

To redeem him.

I think you'd better leave.

By the door.

Whatever you say, doctor.

Good luck with your little quest.

Get well soon, Nicholas.

Come and see me when you can.

Whew.

[LAUGHING] Oh.

How are you feeling? Did you eat?

He said I was a killer. Why did he say that?

In your line of work you've had people shoot at you.

You shoot at them. They missed. You haven't. I don't know.

Well, I guess it makes sense.

What did he mean by my special nature?

Oh, he's just--

You don't have to believe anything that he says to you.

He said he was my oldest friend.

Well, he's not your friend.

He can't help you, not like I can.

But there is something wrong with me, right?

I'm sick or something?

I don't think now is a good time to talk about this.

But, I-- I--

It's very late,

and I think that we both need to get some sleep.

I'm afraid you're just gonna have to trust me

on this one, Nick.

You have to promise me something.

You've got to promise me that no matter what happens,

you won't leave this apartment.

Why would I wanna leave?

You and I have been working very hard together

for a very long time to help you make a change in your life

that you've wanted to make.

This accident has a silver lining

if you want to look at it that way.

What change is that?

Well, all I can say is that the change seems to be happening,

and it feels like we're really getting somewhere.

But you have to trust me.

You have to go slowly with me.

We-- We both have to take this slowly.

We?

What do you mean by we?

Do we have a relationship?

No.

No, we're just friends.

You know, when I first saw you at the hospital,

I knew there was something special between us.

Something very good.

It's hard to explain.

We-- We have a unique re-- Relationship.

But you won't tell me why?

I don't know if I should.

Is it important?

No.

Not now.

Take me.

Please bring me across.

Please.

[GASPS]

[SCREAMS]

LACROIX: You're a killer.

Why don't you go outside and rediscover yourself

for yourself.

Bonsoir, mes amis.

Oui, c'est moi, the Night Crawler,

and I'll be with you until the sun rises

keeping you company...

[HORN HONKS]

...soothing your confusion, your bond in Gilead.

Tonight's meditation is dedicated to lost friends.

Lost from each other, lost from themselves.

And the simple fact is,

the way back for one

is the way back for the other,

for we must never forget what we are

or whom we came from.

This is our lifeblood,

our nourishment.

Without it, we wither

and become nothing.

You will come back.

You must come back.

It is your destiny,

and destiny will not be trifled with.

Nothing.

If he's here, I don't see him.

Is it because you can't remember

or because you didn't get a good look at the guy?

I don't know. Look,

this happens to a lot of cops when their partner gets tagged.

She just needs some time and some rest.

Anybody hear anything from Detective Knight yet?

Nothing.

I wouldn't count on him being any help for a long time.

Captain,

I'm sorry.

Look, you just got to stop pushing it, Tracy.

Step back from it for a while and give it a break.

REESE: You got to learn to let it come to you.

Now, come on, give it a rest.

[♪]

Hold it right there.

Hands in the air.

I'm a police officer.

I'll just go into my pocket and get my badge, all right?

You do it slowly.

What are you doing here, detective?

COP: This is a protected crime scene.

[HISSES]

There was a police officer shot here last night.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm the officer who was shot.

Oh.

What are you doing here?

I'm looking for something.

Whatever you say, detective.

Are you sure you're all right?

Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine, thanks.

I'll let myself out.

Okay.

Nick?

Oh, my God.

[GASPS]

Did you know this would happen?

I told you not to go out.

But you didn't tell me why.

[GRUNTS]

What's wrong with me?

How could it be this horrible?

Tell me!

Tell me.

Why won't you tell me?

Oh, Nick, why--? Why'd you have to go?

I remembered something.

I sensed the shooter before he fired.

I sensed him, and that means something.

Come on, tell me what it means!

Tell me!

You were so close.

I mean, if only you'd done what I asked

I might never have had to tell you the truth.

We were so close.

We were so close.

Merry Christmas.

Natalie, I saw his face.

I have to go. I can help.

No, no, no, you can't go anywhere until the sun sets.

Why?

There-- There's no easy way to tell you this, Nick.

You're a...

You're a vampire.

[PHONE RINGS]

Vetter.

MAN: Too bad about your partner.

You got his head all messed up, didn't you?

Bet you feel bad.

Who is this?

Not important,

but a friend of mine's got a little score to settle.

The name Jimmy Mallock ring a bell?

No.

Jimmy likes parades.

He likes the clowns the best. The floats.

Do you believe in Santa Claus, Tracy?

Jimmy does.

You're the one.

No, it was Jimmy.

He's sad.

He wants to talk to you alone.

Where?

Cement plant at the lakefront.

The pain's almost gone.

Does this always happen?

That's why your head wound didn't kill you.

You heal incredibly fast.

I thought you said the bullet just grazed me.

I lied.

How long have I been a vampire?

Seven hundred and sixty-seven years.

Natalie,

is this...?

Is what I am the thing that makes you so sad?

It's what's kept us apart.

But we're together now.

Last night.

We can't be together?

Last night I believed it was possible.

That we'd finally won.

We can't have the relationship we want, Nick.

It just-- It won't work this way.

I'm sorry. I should have told you the truth.

[GRUNTS]

Come on, sit up. Come on.

Ah!

It's okay. It's okay. Sit up.

Here.

Drink this.

Normally you drink cow's blood.

You've stopped drinking human blood a long time ago.

Just in case you were wondering.

I could explain it all to you

but until you get your memory back,

you really wouldn't understand.

You don't want to be a vampire.

How's it going?

Nothing yet.

Did it ever occur to you

that the only reason for people like us

is people like them?

I don't know.

Captain, that's him.

KNIGHT: I know that's him.

REESE: Wait a minute.

Leon Sharp?

Are you sure?

I'm positive.

What's the matter?

Leon Sharp, a.k.a. Leon Mallock.

About 15 years ago Leon's older brother Jimmy

was shot and killed during a drug bust.

Damn.

The police captain that fired that shot

was Captain Richard Vetter,

now Commissioner Vetter, Tracy's father.

We've been set up.

Tracy was the target.

She still is.

Look, get over to her place.

I'll call her and I'll have backup meet you there.

You wanted to talk?

Here I am.

[GUNSHOTS]

Good evening, Detective Vetter!

Real happy you could make it!

Pleasure's all mine.

Tracy?

Tracy.

Why do you want to shoot a cop?

You remember Jimmy?

Told you about him.

Yeah, I remember.

Yeah, my brother...

got shot by a cop.

They surrounded his place. They didn't give him a chance.

They just came in shooting.

Do you remember the old saying,

"Do what you want to me but don't mess with my family?"

What about it?

How's Captain Vetter these days, Tracy?

[GROWLS]

[SCREAMS]

LACROIX: All's well that ends well.

Although it never really does end for some of us.

Anyway.

Until tomorrow.

I remain a friend to all

and as always, when you have a friend in the Night Crawler,

who needs enemies?

So I guess it's business as usual.

Oh, uh, Nick,

I know that you're probably 100 percent

but I think it's maybe a good idea

if you stayed home for a while.

There's someone I need to talk to first.

I know I can't fill in all the blanks.

Nat, you were right, hm.

It is a lot to take in all at once,

but bear with me.

Nicholas, I'm so glad that you're well.

What brings you in?

Social call?

Some urgent police matter, perhaps?

No, just a feeling.

I'm guessing you can fill in the blanks for me.

Help me figure out who I am.

All of who I am.

It's nearly dawn.

You'll have to spend the day here with me, I'm afraid.

You have plenty of time.

Eternity, so I'm told.

Good.

Because what you are, Nicholas,

is a long, long story.
