  • Edgar Frog: Great! The Bloodsucking Brady Bunch!
  • Max: Let this be a lesson to you, you silly little boy: Never ever invite a vampire into your house. And why? Because it renders you powerless.
  • Sam Emerson: Did you know that?
  • Edgar Frog: Of course. Everyone knows that. Why else would we be here?
  • Sam Emerson: I bet you hate garlic, dontcha!
  • Max: No, I like garlic! It's just a little much! It's raw garlic.
  • Max: [reaches for Lucy's hand while strangling Sam] Don't fight, Lucy. It's so much better if you don't fight.
