Quotes 

• Eric Northman : Since you like humans so much, I think you would want to protect them. The vampires here, they're like cowboys, if they don't get Godric back, they'll want justice. They'll start attacking people.

  Bill Compton : Open aggression against humans? That's insane.

  Eric Northman : Well, it's Texas.

• Eric Northman : [moving up fast]  Good evening, Lafayette.

  Lafayette Reynolds : [turning and falling from the sofa]  No! You can't come in my house unless I invite you in and I ain't no where near that crazy.

  Eric Northman : You have to come out eventually. I have all the time in the world.

  Lafayette Reynolds : You let me go!

  Eric Northman : I gave you a very generous gift. The gift of not killing you.

• Eric Northman : I admire you,, Bill, it takes a real vampire to admit he cannot protect his human.

  Bill Compton : And it takes a true monster to not care about anyone or anything other than himself.

  Eric Northman : I care about others.

  Bill Compton : You care about Godric. You had no obligations to Dallas or Texas. This is personal for you, why?

• Bill Compton : Why this allegiance to Godric?

  Eric Northman : He is much beloved by his subjects.

  Bill Compton : Only kings and queens have subjects Eric. Not Sheriffs.

  Eric Northman : Godric could have been king of Texas had he wanted. He could have been king of any vampire territory anywhere. He is twice as old as I am and very powerful. There are none above him in the new world.

  Bill Compton : Well if he's so powerful, how could they abduct him?

  Eric Northman : Now that is what worries me. If one such as he can ben taken by humans, then none of us are safe.

• Lafayette Reynolds : Why do you want to give me your blood?

  Eric Northman : I like you.

  Lafayette Reynolds : Bullshit. You want to be able to keep track of me. Why?

  Eric Northman : You obviously mean something to Sookie. And what Sookie finds meaningful, I find curious. You really have no choice, Lafayette. You know it.

• Eric Northman : I hope you'll enjoy your blood substitute, which is costing me $45.

  Bill Compton : I have no intention of drinking it, I just want you to pay for it.

  Eric Northman : You're so mature.
