Alexander Skarsgård: Eric Northman

Keep This Party Going

Eric Northman

Eric Northman: You are aware there's a gaping hole in your leg? You're damaged goods.
Lafayette Reynolds: Not if you turn me. I'd be good as ever. Look I'm already a person of poor moral character. So, I hit the ground running and I damn near glamor people already. Gimme what ya'll got. Not only will I be a badass vampire, but I'd be your badass vampire.

Eric Northman: So, what's it gonna be Lafayette? Would you like your leg to kill you? Or would you prefer us to do that?
Lafayette Reynolds: I'm gonna go with plan C.
Eric Northman: There's a plan C?
Lafayette Reynolds: Make me a vampire.
Eric Northman: I beg your pardon.
Lafayette Reynolds: And you can put me to work in the bar. I'm a good dancer, you've seen it on my site. Shit, I'd get up there and move earth and heaven Go-Go style.
Eric Northman: You are aware that there's a gaping whole in your leg. You're damaged goods.
Lafayette Reynolds: Not if you turn me. I'd be as good as heaven. Look... I... I'm already a person of poor moral character... so I hit the ground running.

Eric Northman: If you have any silver on you now would be the time to reveal it.
Lafayette Reynolds: Now way! I ain't that stupid!
Eric Northman: Yes, you are.
[swiping his mouth, looking at his hand]
Eric Northman: Is there blood in my hair?
Lafayette Reynolds: What?
Eric Northman: Is there blood in my hair?
Lafayette Reynolds: I... I don't know. I can't see in this light.
Eric Northman: [goes over quickly] How about now?
Lafayette Reynolds: [shaking] Y... yeah t... there's a little bit of blood in there, yeah.
Eric Northman: This is bad. Pam is going to kill me.
Lafayette Reynolds: Who the fuck is Pam?
Eric Northman: Do you want to meet her?
Lafayette Reynolds: No. No, I'm good.
Eric Northman: We'll you're going to.
[takes the chain from the collar]
Lafayette Reynolds: Where you taking me?
Eric Northman: To find out what you know. I wouldn't try anything rash if I were you. I'm still hungry.

Pam: [looking at Eric's hair] This is a disaster. We'll have to go much shorter than I planned.
Eric Northman: Well I said I was sorry, Pam. He took silver to me.
[to Lafayette]
Eric Northman: You were there, you saw it. Defend me.
Lafayette Reynolds: I don't know what it is you want to know, but point me in the direction and I gives to you.
Eric Northman: I've seen your website, it's quite, umm... low rent. But your clients miss you, Lafayette, they're wondering if you're ever coming back.
Lafayette Reynolds: [nervous] Am I?

Eric Northman: The sheriff of Area 9 in Texas has gone missing. Have you heard about it?
Bill Compton: I hadn't. But I know the vampire of whom you speak. His name is Godric. Correct?
Eric Northman: Indeed. That goes without saying he needs to be found. Which is where Sookie comes in.
Bill Compton: No!
Eric Northman: She's yours and I'm asking your permission to take her with me to Dallas.
Bill Compton: You you can do whatever you want with me but I am not putting her in this position anymore. I cannot and I will not allow you to bring her into these matters.
Eric Northman: We made a deal, your human and I. That if I didn't kill anyone she would work for me as often as I like. You remember that don't you? You were there.
Bill Compton: Taking her across state lines is a far cry from taking her to Fangtasia for the evening!
Eric Northman: I'm only asking your permission out of respect. If I want her I can simply take her... Is no your final answer?
Bill Compton: It is.
Eric Northman: Poorly played, Bill.
