Kate Bracken: Alex

Quotes 

• Hal : Ten minutes is all I ask... supervised, of course. Just so I can do a quick run round with the Hoover and sort out the recycling. Please! This is torture.

  Alex : If we wanted to torture you we would show you a picture of the bathroom.

• Tom : What are you lot doing down here?

  Alex : Hal's building a sauna.

  Tom : A sauna? Here? That's ridiculous.

  Hal : Excuse me, weren't you planning on putting a swimming pool in the garden?

  Tom : I said that cos we'd only just met. And you know as well as I do I was really making a bomb.

  Hal : Fine. I'm making a bomb.

  Tom : Thank you. It's the lying that hurts.

• Alex : Look on the bright side. Now you get to do a new rota.

• Tom : What do you reckon, is he safe?

  Alex : Well a few days ago he stopped shouting abuse and started correcting my grammar again, so... I guess that's got to be a good sign.

• Alex : You of all people don't get to dictate what we tell my dad and brothers.

  Hal : What does that mean? Me of all people?

  Alex : I'm not letting a good man die of grief just to protect the fucking Twilight franchise.

  Hal : We can discuss it later.

  Alex : You can discuss it later. With yourself.

  Hal : That doesn't even make sense!

• Hal : But he's a predator! He's only been a vampire for about seventeen hours.

  Alex : How was I supposed to know?

  Hal : I should have left a clue. Like, I don't know, locking him in a cellar and tying him to a fucking radiator!

• Alex : Can you please stop treating me like I'm made of glass or cobwebs or something. All right, I'm dead. My health and wellbeing has pretty much bottomed out.

  Tom : So what am I supposed to do?

  Alex : Just treat me like an equal. Treat me like a bloke.

  Tom : But you're a lady. And my dad taught me how to treat ladies. Always be polite and courteous, if a lady came in the room, stood up and take off any hats, and if it was a vampire, you staked 'em.

  Alex : And I'm sure that growing up in the paramilitary wing of the Amish had many pluses, but I find it patronizing.
