We'll Meet Again - episode 1x21
Synopsis | Gallery | Stars and Guest Stars | Quotes | Trivia | Deleted Scene
This episode is very special to me for several reasons:
It was the one that was filming when I visited the set.
The episode was directed by the VERY nice David Winning.
And finally, it was written by Denis McGrath whose writing I have enjoyed on his blog for quite a while. Denis has written a very interesting long article about the filming of this episode. From what Denis writes, you can understand how showrunner Peter Mohan got to win the 2008 WGC award of Best Showrunner.
After you've watched the episode, you can read:
Tanya Huff's take on the episode and
Denis McGrath's article about Blood Ties - both reposted on this site with their permission.
If you want more, you can read:
my Blood Ties Set Visit Report or you can read the
detailed episode review by WiliQueen
And finally, you can check out the
deleted scene that's posted in the trivia section.
Synopsis

His wife of many lifetimes since they first met in 1682. But this time the city of Toronto has changed too much, so he needs Vicki's help to find her. Unfortunately there's an unexpected problem this time.
In the end, is love always worth dying for?

Quotes
Written by Denis McGrath, directed by David WinningVicki: (Putting on her jacket to leave) Come on Coreen, let's call it a day.
Coreen: Do you have time for a walk-in?
Vicki: Do they look like they can pay?
Lee: I can pay Ms. Nelson.
Vicki: What can I do for you? Mr. Wilson steal your ball?
Lee: The name's Lee. Rep on the street says you handle crazy cases.
Vicki: Hm. Uh, I don't mean to be rude, but do your parents know you're here?
Lee: It don't matter, cuz I'm an emancipated minor. (Throws up an E.M. gang sign)
Vicki: Ah yes, another triumph for our legal system.
Lee: Look, I'm gonna lay this out straight. You guys need to help me find my wife.
(Coreen and Vicki look flabbergasted)
Vicki: Man, I had my coat on!
Vicki: You and your ... wife ... been together long?
Or is this one of those whirlwind playground romances?
Lee: It's been four hundred years. A dozen lifetimes. Hell yeah it's been a long time.
Lee: My sheba was a real smarty - the cat's whiskers. We'd go out in my breezer, get into all kinds of bushwa trying to outrun the bulls.
Henry: You know the private dick brought you here to make sure she wasn't being a dumb dora? She's ready to cast kittens over there. Now here's the rub - if that dame believes she's being a dumb dora she's gonna cast kittens. I turn loony lucy, cut you up.
Lee: I'm no sap, Daddy-O. I'm on the level.
Henry: I miss flappers.
Lee: Dude, flappers were sick.
Lee: She's a really bad singer. Good with figures. Hates cats.
Vicki: I like her already. Give me more.
C'mon -- a left handed cat-hating accountant? You gotta know more.
Pretend we're playing the Newlywed Game. For keeps.
Mike: What is this - "Bring your own haystack to work" week? Did a relative show up?
Vicki: Something like that. Big stakes Mike. Love at first sight
Vicki: Come on, it's in the name of love. Love at first sight.
Mike: You know what? I am staring at a whole stack of love at first sights. And they all ended up in property damage, abuse, restraining orders and death.
Vicki: Ooh, that's so sweet. We should crochet that on something.
Augustus: You putting me up at the Four Seasons?
Henry: Of course ... but -- let's talk about room service ...
Lee: Damn hormones ... hardest part of starting over ... being a teenager again.
It sucks.
Vicki: (to Lee) Okay, heartwearming reunion's over.
Now it's time for quiet inside voices.
Vicki: And lady cougars everywhere thank you for that.
Vicki: This isn't a teen movie. Standing outside her house holding a boombox playing her favorite song isn't going to get you what you want.
Coreen: But it will upset her husband.
Henry: Love's a fragile thing, one lifetime to the next - it never comes easy.
Vicki: Yeah. The 80s called? They want their lyrics back
Vicki: She's a decade older than him.
Henry: Older women can be quite intoxicating.
Henry: The simple fact that he keeps coming back, doesn't that say something?
Vicki: (Yeah, it says) That he's completely obsessed!
Henry: There's no pull more powerful in the universe than longing.
Vicki: These days that kind of longing will get you an ankle bracelet and a restraining order.
Henry: In my time it got you a sonnet.
Jeff Smith: Every time you come here, you dredge up terrible memories.
Vicki: I know. My mom says the same thing every time I come home for the holidays.
Helen: Are you sure this is decaf?
Vicki: Oh yeah. Real coffee would take this out behind the shed and beat it 'til it turned to tea.
Vicki: There's two men in my life.
With one, I feel like ... but then the other one is so ...
See - I'm not even sure my heart and I are on speaking terms any more.
Lee: People used to talk about love a whole lot less and prove it a whole lot more.
You know what I'm saying?
Henry: True that.
Augustus: Do you even remember the taste of wine?
Henry: Compared to blood, everything else pales.
Augustus: They keep trying to get me to go digital. I say you can't hack into cuneiform.
Augustus: Do you confirm that the present grounds are not compromised by publicity, indescriminate hunting or otherwise compromising forces, unnatural or non?
Henry: I so affirm.
Trivia
This episode never aired on Lifetime - it was only available for online viewing.
This is an episode without monsters - the only the supernatural element is the reincarnated couple.
Helen and Lee first met in 1682 - he was a Mohawk guide and she was a minister's daughter.
Coreen talks a sentence of Pig Latin to Lee, "Ixnay on the ookup-hay", meaning "Nix on the hook-up".
Lee is an emancipated minor
"Mr. Wilson steal your ball?" - refers to Mr. Wilson from Dennis the Menace
Vicki suggests Lee play the Newlywed Game
Lee speaks "rap" - calls people G.
Vicki: "And lady cougars everywhere thank you for that." Lady cougars refer to older women who chase younger men
"Playing the boombox" - this is a reference to the 1989 movie "Say Anything ...", where John Cusack's character played the famous scene Vicki refers to.
Lee's cap was from Red Dragon Apparel - I usually don't notice stuff like that, but one of my friends has a couple of RDS t-shirts, so I recognized the brand.
cuneiform script, ("wedge shaped," from the Latin cuneus, meaning "wedge").
It would probably be really expensive for Henry to move into the Vancouver territory - Vancouver is such a popular place to live ;-)
I guess the current vampire in residence would demand A LOT to vacate.
Deleted Scene:
Ext. Alley -- nightHenry walks along when suddenly two frat-boy types block his path. This is Rolf and Ricardo
Rolf: What's this?
Ricardo: We got a pretty boy. (Big coked-up sniff)
You lookin' for somethin' special, pretty boy?
Henry smiles - with intent.
Henry: Why - that something you boys would be into?
Henry glances down and sees the baseball bat Ricardo is holding, peeking out from behind his back. He lingers in the look -- provocatively
Rolf: Gross ... he's checkin' you out!
Henry: You did come down here looking for something specific, didn't you?
Ricardo: We know why you're here.
Henry: I doubt that. I'm just looking for a good workout.
Ricardo reveals the bat and goes for a swing --
-- As Henry vamps and disarms Ricardo in a flash. He tosses the bat to Rolf, then with a blast of vamp speed, Henry turns Ricardo around, and sinks his teeth into his neck...
Rolf hoists the bat, paralyzed. Run or fight? (I'd run myself, but Rolf ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer. It's also really hard to run while you're making dookie.)
Henry disengages; the unconscious Ricardo slumps to the ground.
Rolf: What are you?
Henry: A dude workin' out some issues. Now .. Batter up.
Rolf thinks about it, tries to run -- Henry catches him.
The bat clatters to the ground - cut to INT Vickis' Office
Questions
Henry lies to Augustus - he asks if the territory is free of ???
And Henry knows Astaroth is there.
Henry just sticks Augustus' knife in his pocket.
