:03:00
It's about 4,000 years old.
:03:02
So why here?
:03:02
Because this is the cradle of civilization.
:03:05
He would've been comfortable here.
:03:06
I don't know, Dan.
This seems like another dead end.
:03:08
There's something beneath us.
:03:09
You find a watch?
:03:11
Is it a body?
:03:15
Guys?
:03:17
Aah!
:03:19
Go! Aah!
:03:21
What the fuck?!
:03:28
Aah!
:03:33
Tonight, Dr. Edgar Vance,
forensic psychiatrist
:03:36
and author of the New York Times
bestseller Human Health,
:03:39
The Whole Being Breakthrough.
:03:40
Also with us, Martin Vreede,
Chief of Police.
:03:43
They'll be here for the next hour,
and they'll be taking your calls,
:03:45
next on Bently Tittle Live.
:03:47
Okay, Dr. Vance.
:03:49
You are a psychiatrist
and a biochemist. Isn't that true?
:03:51
Yes, Bently. I am both.
:03:53
And it's for a reason.
:03:54
I have always believed
that true health can only be achieved
:03:56
if we reconcile
the body and the mind.
:03:58
And of course,
in order to do that,
:03:59
we have to get rid
of a lot of old notions.
:04:01
Okay. And... how's that
fit in with vampires?
:04:03
In the case of vampires,
we're dealing with creatures that, uh,
:04:06
are the repositories of some
of our most taboo thoughts.
:04:08
- Okay.
- Predatory rage.
:04:09
- Yeah.
- Sexual sadism.
:04:10
- Sexual?
- Sexual sadism.
:04:11
These are very scary subjects
for people to own up to,
:04:13
and they're right inside.
:04:14
So what you're saying is
we pass the buck onto someone else.
:04:16
- You bet we do.
- And vampires...?
:04:18
Well, for instance,
there's a hereditary blood disease.
:04:20
I talk about it in my book.
It's called porphyria.
:04:21
And the symptoms of this disease
:04:22
are remarkably similar
to classic vampire traits.
:04:24
The people who suffer
from this disease are anemic,
:04:26
they become intolerant to sunlight,
they can't handle garlic--
:04:28
Garlic?
Chief Vreede. Okay.
:04:30
What's your take on all these rumors
we've been hearing about vampires?
:04:32
Vampires, vampires. What?
:04:33
The only vampires I'm worried about
are the ones passing the bar exam.
:04:38
Seriously, though.
:04:39
If vampires existed, don't you think
we would've found them by now?
:04:41
The truth is our streets
have never been safer.
:04:42
Homicide, assaults, violent crime
is down across the board.
:04:44
If people want to be concerned,
:04:45
they should focus in on characters
like this Blade criminal.
:04:47
Now, that's the guy I wanna hear about.
:04:48
I wanna hear about this character Blade.
What about him?
:04:49
He's a sociopath
that we've been pursuing.
:04:51
Blade is a troubled individual.
:04:53
I understand that he is
under the impression
:04:55
that there is a vast conspiracy
of vampires.
:04:57
Now, you've got to look
at the psychiatric underpinnings
:04:58
of a belief like that.
