Description
Vampires seem to be avoiding Chunt’s annual blood drive, so instead we interview a werewolf.
Summary
It’s the third Chunt For Red October - Chunt’s annual blood drive to provide jars of blood for vampires who can’t get blood on their own - but on account of all the vampires being killed in attendance at last year’s blood drive, no vampires are showing up to this year’s drive. Cad, the vampire brother of Vlad, Chad, Brad, Tad, and Ryan who died last year, is told of his brothers’ deaths from Arnie and Chunt.
Chunt reveals that he invited a werewolf instead for this blood drive, and his name is Nathan Goodboy. He looks like a regular person, but he has a tail at all times. As a child, he fell asleep in a field during a full moon and woke up to find himself turned into a “teen wolf” from that day forward. He’s not apart of a pack, saying that he goes into a rage that makes him transform into a werewolf, and only changes back when he’s calm, usually naked and alone. He rates his emotional states on a numerical scale, with a “nine” being the point at which he transforms. Nathan says he’s not here for the blood, mostly for the companionship.
Arnie asks how to kill a werewolf, and Nathan says that anything could, but it would just be harder because his skin is thicker. However, if they are able to just calm him, he should be able to transition back into a human. Cad comes back to the table, and him and Nathan talk, spurring on a conversation about the relationship between werewolves and vampires being “natural friends”.
Usidore asks Nathan about his powers, and whether or not he’s tried to use them for good. He says he’s tried, but it’s too hard to maintain. Usidore says he can help. He’s tried many methods to reverse his situation, to no avail. He says that it’s hard to maintain relationships, having accidentally eaten several of them.
After the break, Cad comes back and starts to bother Nathan with his beat poetry reciting. Nathan gets angry, transitioning into a werewolf, and killing Cad. The boys are able to calm Nathan back down and Usidore reminds him that he’s going to try to help him control his powers. Nathan turns back into a human, only to ask Usidore what his name was, prompting him to turn back into a rage when Usidore’s name goes on too long. He is able to transition back again, and Arnie asks if it’s awful if he asks Nathan to leave the bar. Nathan reveals how hurt he is by that, but they still kick him out, though not before thanking him for killing Cad.
During emails, the boys find the Blade of Veysco Hallan behind the portrait of Darby Barleyfoot, Otok’s father, in the bar at the advice of tweet. Usidore explains how the blade is the only thing in the world that can kill a wizard, and that he intends to use it at the Dark Lord’s birthday party to kill him once and for all. Chunt is insistent that after they kill the Dark Lord, that they will also kill Can the Wizard.
After the credits, A Series of Bats comes by to ask Chunt if there is any blood left, despite not actually being interested in drinking blood. He pretends to drink blood, only for Chunt to tell him that not every bat drinks blood. Tom reveals that he feels alone, even though he’s constantly among a series of bats.
Emails
A listener advises Chunt to team up with vampires from the drive to defeat the Dark Lord, the only problem being there are no vampires left. Another listener asks if the Dark Lord’s birthday party has a dress code or theme, and the answer is that the theme is “heaps of beef”.
Arnie mentions that people have been contacting him about the rhyme they received weeks ago with clues, and says that a Twitter user sent him a picture from behind the Burger King that reveals that the boys need to look behind the portrait of Otok’s father in the tavern. They find the Blade of Vesco Halan behind the portrait, which Usidore says is the only blade that can kill a wizard.
