"They would tear anyone else apart, but they welcome me. Like a brother."

Spoken from inside the glass cylinder full of bats.

And he can echolocate.

Lucien gives Morby a bag of blood, which he shotguns.

Lucien is hobbling up to Morby’s lab, find him trapped behind some glass doors(? (wall (?))). Morby writes "BLOOD" on the glass, in blood. meta as hell.

If he needs blood, why waste it writing blood in blood?

Lucien gonna get his blood drank I’m pretty sure.

Morby gives Lucien a pointy-teethed "I said get out!"

The cops, still seemingly unaware that all those murders were legal, visit Dr. Bancroft (Morby’s lady friend assistant) to see if she can shed any light on the situation.

Lucien demands the cure, Morby refuses it. "It’s a curse."

It’s a testament to the direction here that Matt Smith, who is actually British, has one of the worst sounding British accents I’ve ever heard.

Also, shouldn’t a homicide detective know what exanguination is without needing to look it up?

"We also noticed that their blood was... What do you call it?" "Exanguinated. I looked it up."

Must not have looked too hard, since "exanguinated" means to be drained of blood. So their blood was drained of blood. Top notch work fellas, I’m sure you’ll solve this octo-homicide easily.

Ah, we’re doing the thing where the vampire story exists in a world where Dracula was never published, so everyone is very confused by the fang marks on the necks of the victims drained of blood.

Now a nurse with big lesbian energy is looking at some x-rays and walking through a dark hall. The lights start flickering and she says "Hello" several times before speedwalking away, then running for the lightswitch. Surprise! Nothing.

But wait, it’s double surprise! It’s Morbius, drinking her blood.

Dr. Bancroft claims ignorance, and the flatfoots hit the bricks.

Morby goes to visit the child he had put in a coma, and uses his bat superpowers to overhear distant conversations; the nurse he murdered has been discovered.

I guess nobody noticed the corpse in the hallway for hours, but someone immediately notes "Looks like all the blood was drained from her body." Because they can obviously tell that just from looking at a slumped figure.

But, surprise! The flatfoots are onto him! They’re waiting in the lobby. Sure would have been a good time to use that echolocation, or superhuman high jumping, or remote listening, or any of those other bat superpowers instead of limping out the front door without a clue.

Morby goes to gawk at the people gawking at his latest victim. He works here, I guess? Nobody notices that instead of being sickly and needing two crutches, he’s buff and able-bodied.

He goes back up to his lab and packs up all his True Blood in a backpack, walks out pretending(?) to use crutches and with his hoodie over his head.

But, uh-oh! The hospital is being locked down because of the nurse. Don’t shit where you eat, Morbussy.

They have one of those Movie Conversations where the cops know he knows they know, but can’t prove it, sot they dance around and infer things.

They try to arrest him, so now it’s time for superpowers. Morby bat-leaps up a stairwell to the roof, where he loses the blood and is nearly blown off the edge.

Now he’s in jail, where the kitchen is presumably not in the habit of preparing meals of human blood. That’s gonna be a problem for The Batman here.

The flatfoots come to interrogate, bringing some holy water along with them. And a blood-soaked origami bat. Oops!

"I got a problem."

- The guy in prison for brutally murdering nine innocent people, about his eating schedule.

Morby pleads for some blood, but it’s in evidence. He might eat someone in a minute here.

"I’m starting to get hungry. And you don’t wanna see me when I’m hungry."

lmao, just 100% clumsily ripping off the memeiest line of The Hulk.

But, same, tbh
