"Only going to say this once! There is a young werewolf in the Beauty Bar downtown. She went out on the night of a full moon because she wanted to prove herself that she could still have a normal life. A vampire called this in and the vampires are not going to be of any help because the vampires never are.

If you went to the restaurant you told me that you were going to, then you are the closest person I know who can help. Will you help, or will you continue to waste my time?"
