Martin Matthias : Everything has been pretty easy since I've learned how to be careful. People are the hardest thing.
Radio Talk Show Host : I understand.

Radio Talk Show Host : Right.
Martin Matthias : Then they, they have the other... the sexy stuff. Whenever they want. I've been much too shy to ever do the sexy stuff. I mean, do it with someone who's awake. Someday maybe I'll get to do it - awake - without the blood part. Just do it with somebody. Then be together and talk all night.

Martin Matthias : No, you really don't. I mean, if the magic part was real and you could make them do whatever you wanted to...
Radio Talk Show Host : Ha, ha, oh yeah!

Martin Matthias : You want me here for sex, don't you. I never really did it before, I was always too shy. But I've decided I'd really like to do it with you.
