Dracula: …What the hell was that delivery?
Richter: What?
Dracula: God, that was awful! You just destroyed the moment!
Richter: What are you talking about?
Dracula: Where's the emotion? Where's the drama!? This is the final battle after twelve stages of Hell, and you come here with delivery so wooden, you could drive it through my heart and kill me!
