He just wanted to date, hang-out, more than have sex. Unfortunately, due to the way he looked, the only way he could 'date' would be to actually purchase it! And there lies the conundrum. The hookers aren't interested in dating, the teen vamp is, and then, he gets pissed,...
I've always vaguely wondered
- why the teen vamp didn't dress a bit more grown-up (and maybe use a bit of makeup) to appear at least 21 (IS there a minimum age for hiring a hooker?)
- whether he killed all the prostitutes he met with, or just the ones that refused/made fun of him like Jazzmyn
- why Cherish refused the roller coaster ride. After all, she got paid for her TIME...
But I can live without the answers...
I agree with you all about the guest stars in the episode (I'd like to add the guy at the morgue to the list of people to be kicked out of the TV) - but has anybody else noticed the barkeeper's "Yeah, I see why you need it" look when Cherish orders her double drink? That's one of my favorite moments in the episode. Apart from Mick and Beth in the car (pity they cut to teen vamp in the middle of the scene), and the final grin (wish they'd left it for a bit longer). I also very much liked that apparantly there's no longer any question of Beth waiting in the car - even though they are hunting a very dangerous (are there any others?) vampire. And they do make a good team - swiping the organizer was another highlight of the episode for me (I worry less about doing it under Carl's nose - he's nicely distracted - but what are the other two agents doing?)
I've got a different take on the discussion in the morgue hallway: I see Mick thinking "F..., I knew I should have risked waiting for the other guy" when Beth goes on about saving his life - with her blood. Seems bad form to me...
But what really struck me is how badly Mick is doing in the fight against the teen vamp - fate must be on his side, otherwise he'd be dead. Actually, I think Mick is doing very badly against all the vamps he fights (remember Motolla?), especially at the beginning of the fight. It's only when Mick has nearly lost the fight that something snaps and he gets serious about winning. Makes me wonder whether he does have a death wish somewhere - and then, when his wish is nearly granted, survival instinct kicks in.
Or the writers/directors though the fights would be more interesting this way...
