True Blood, Season 2

Godric:
[on the roof with Eric] Two thousand years is enough.

Eric:
I can't accept this. It's insanity!

Godric:
Our existence is insanity... we don't belong here.

Eric:
But we are here!

Godric:
It's not right. We're not right.

Eric:
You taught me there was no right or wrong. Only survival or death.

Godric:
I told a lie, as it turns out.

Eric:
[stepping closer] I will keep you alive by force!

Godric:
Even if you could, why would you be so cruel?

Eric:
Godric, don't do it.

Godric:
There are centuries of faith and love between us.

Eric:
Please, please!... Please Godric!

Godric:
Father... brother... child... Let me go.

Eric:
I won't let you die alone.

Godric:
Yes, you will. As your maker. I command you.

[Eric gets to his feet and walks to the stairs. Sookie reaches for him and he turns to her]

Sookie:
I'll stay with him. As long as it takes. [Eric leaves]

Godric:
It won't take long. Not at my age.

Sookie:
You know it wasn't very smart. The Fellowship of Sun part.

Godric:
I know. I thought it would fix everything some how. But I don't think like a vampire anymore... Do you believe in God?

Sookie:
Yes.

Godric:
If you're right, how will he punish me?

Sookie:
God doesn't punish. God forgives.

Godric:
I don't deserve it, but I hope for it.

Sookie:
We all do.

Godric:
You will care for him? Eric.

Sookie:
I'm not sure. You know how he is.

Godric:
I can take the blame for that too.

Sookie:
[smiling softly] Maybe not. Eric's pretty much himself... Are you very afraid?

Godric:
No, no. I'm full of joy.

Sookie:
But the pain?

Godric:
I want to burn.

Sookie:
[starts crying] I-I'm afraid for you.

Godric:
A human with me at the end, and human tears. Two thousand years... and I can still be surprised. In this I see God.

Sookie:
[watches as he turns towards the sun and removes his shirt, holding his arms wide] ... Good-bye, Godric.
