The Importance of Reading the TV Guide

History of Santa Carla's Resort Disaster
David Williams Not bad, huh? This was the hottest resort in Santa Carla about 85 years ago. It's too bad that they built it on the San Andreas Fault. In 1906, when the Big One hit San Francisco, the ground opened up and this place took a header right into the crack. So now, it's ours.

Vampire Activity in Santa Carla Revealed
Edgar We've been aware of some very serious vampire activity in town for a long time.

Edgar As a matter of fact, we're almost certain that ghouls and werewolves occupy high positions at City Hall.
Alan Kill your brother, you'll feel better.
Sam Look, guys, my brother's not a bloodsucker. Look, it says here that if you kill the head vampire, all half-vampires will return to normal. Guys, if my brother's a vampire, believe me, he's only half.
Edgar Does he know who the head vampire is?
Sam No, I don't think so.
Edgar Then you'll have to kill him. And if you don't, then we will.
Sam It all started when my mom went to work at Max's video store. Max never comes in till after it's dark. The dog who chased my mom this morning was his. And listen to this: "Vampires require a daytime protector, a guardian, to watch over them as they sleep. Fierce dogs, the Hounds of Hell, are often employed for this purpose.
Edgar No kidding.
Sam Yeah? Well, what happens if my mom is dating the head vampire? You guys could nail him and save Santa Carla. "Truth, Justice, the American way" triumphs. Thanks to you two.
Edgar We'll check out Max.
