Dr. Johnson is approached by Ted, a new vampire.
“I just got turned,” Ted tells him. “You gotta help me out. I need blood, and I don’t want to kill anyone.”
Dr. Johnson agrees to help, providing Ted with the blood bags he needs. He refers Ted to counseling to deal with the psychological effects of the change. He even lets Ted crash on his couch while he looks for a job with a night shift opening.
But a week later, during his rounds on the coma ward, Dr. Johnson notices suspicious marks on several necks.
Ted confesses. “I just couldn’t resist.”
Dr. Johnson sighs. “I wanted to help you. I really did. I gave you food, and I even offered you a place to stay. But now, Ted—”
Dr Johnson shakes his head. “You’re beginning to try my patients.”
