Quotes 

• Sookie Stackhouse : [watching Eric with the new dancer]  What the s...?

  Eric Northman : [stops and turns]  Sookie... see anything you like?

  Pam : I do.

  Eric Northman : I take it Sookie couldn't be stopped?

  Pam : What can I say? She overpowered me.

• Eric Northman : So what brings you to Fangtasia this balmy summer night?

  Sookie Stackhouse : Bill's been kidnapped and I think you did it.

  Eric Northman : I didn't. Any other theories?

  Sookie Stackhouse : I'm still on this one. Thank you very much.

• Magister : [entering the Fantasia with the Queen]  Mr. Northman. I haven't seen you since the Bill Compton trial.

  Eric Northman : Yes, it's been uh too long. May I ask what brings you to Fantasia?

  Queen Sophie Anne : We need to talk. You should probably close up.

  Eric Northman : You can just use my office.

  Queen Sophie Anne : It's bugged.

  Eric Northman : How do you know this?

  Queen Sophie Anne : Because I'm the one who bugged it... It's how I know I can trust you.

• Sookie Stackhouse : Tell me where I can find Lorena? If you don't have him, she does.

  Eric Northman : Solid theory. But given the tenure of your last run-in with Ms. Krasiki, I think it's better if I delt with her instead.

  Sookie Stackhouse : How do I know if you will?

  Eric Northman : Because if Bill was in fact kidnapped, by human or vampire, I am duty bound as sheriff in the area in which he resides to find him... even if I do want what is his.

• Eric Northman : There's something I couldn't tell you infront of the Magister. Bill Compton has gone missing. Kidnapped perhaps.

  Queen Sophie Anne : I don't care. Move the blood.

  Eric Northman : He's the only vampire that knows about our arrangement. My side of it at least.

  Queen Sophie Anne : Then I don't understand why we're even talking about him. Let him rot.

• Eric Northman : [about Bill missing]  The Queen is the last person I need finding out about this.

  Pam : You're not the only one whose fate hangs in the balance here.

  Eric Northman : And what do you think the Queen will do if I tell her I've lost the one vampire who could link her to the dealing of vampire blood?

  Pam : What do you think she'll do if she finds out from someone else? Call the Queen.

  Eric Northman : There are times when I seek your counsel, Pam. Now is not one of those times.

• Magister : Trouble abounds in your fair state.

  Eric Northman : Tell me.

  Magister : It would seem your idyllic little home is competing to become the V capital of the world.

  Queen Sophie Anne : Can you believe it? I am so embarrassed. Naturally I told the Magister that you were the only vampire in my kingdom that I could trust with this.

  Eric Northman : Anything I can do to be of service.

  Magister : Our blood is sacred. Wasting it on any thing but procreation is blasphemy.

  Queen Sophie Anne : Madness.

  Eric Northman : Desecration.

  Magister : Have you noticed an uptake is users in your neck of the woods? Maybe even here in your club?

  Eric Northman : I haven't. No.

  Magister : See that surpises me. Because every other sheriff to whom I have spoken to has. The amounts are so great in fact, we can only assume a vampire is responsible.

  Queen Sophie Anne : An act of self loathing so shameful that who ever is responsible should fall on his own stake.

  Eric Northman : Respectfully, Magister, I'm not sure I follow your logic.

  Magister : If your average run-of-the-mill drainers were behind this, it would stand to reason that said drainers would need vampires to drain; which means there would be missing vampires and plenty of them... How many vampires have gone missing in your area?

  Eric Northman : None, magister.

  Magister : So now, do you follow my logic.

  Eric Northman : I do, and I will look into the matter.

  Magister : Good, and I will expect results.

• Queen Sophie Anne : When we do find the vampire responsible, how will you punish him?

  Eric Northman : Or her?

  Queen Sophie Anne : And will it be in public?

  Magister : Of course when one who is proven guilty of such a crime must be made an example of. That kind of moral anarchy can not be allowed.

• Queen Sophie Anne : Isn't moral anarchy kind of the point? I can't think of anything more depressing that living by the law forever.

  Eric Northman : Your Highness, forgive me but I don't feel the same sense of relief you do.

  Queen Sophie Anne : You don't think he believed us.

  Eric Northman : Not entirely. No.

  Queen Sophie Anne : Than I suggest you sell everything you have as soon as possible.

• Queen Sophie Anne : The pigs at the IRS are breathing down my neck and I need money now. Sell the blood at half price if you have to. I don't care what it takes. Just move the product and cover our tracks.

  Eric Northman : With all due respect, your highness, I fear you're not considering all the angles.

• Sookie Stackhouse : Where were you tonight around 11 o'clock?

  Eric Northman : Here, with Yvetta.

  Sookie Stackhouse : Doing this?... For the last six hours?

  Eric Northman : You seem surprised. Is Bill's stamina not up to snuff?
