True Blood, Season 2

Sookie:
[gasping, hurt] Am I dying?

Dr. Ludwig:
Yes.

Bill:
No! She cannot die! You will save her!

Dr. Ludwig:
Back off, vampire. Let me do my job!

Eric:
Forgive him. Bill is abnormally attached to this human.

Dr. Ludwig:
Well, we don't have a lot of choices. She's been poisoned. You ever heard of Komodo dragons? Their mouths are teeming with bacteria. After one has bitten you it will track you for hours, days just waiting for the toxins to slowly eat away at your nervous system. 'Til you're good and helpless. Then it will devour you alive.

Sookie:
I was... scratched by a dragon?

Dr. Ludwig:
No, but this poison is similar but way more efficient. I don't think I've seen it before but it's hard to tell without further testing and we don't have that kind of time.
