Sarah the Vampire Slayer - Date with the Yeshivah Pupil
Node LinkNext[ Sarah the Vampire Slayer featuring Natalie Portman as Sarah Anne Eisenman, an Ethnic, Reform, Jewish slayer.
Sarah is sitting in a restaurant on a date with Yaakov, a Yeshivah Pupil from a local Chabad Yeshivah.
( Builds upon this scene from Summerschool at the NSA. ) ]
Sarah: So how's life in the Yeshivah?
Yaakov: Oh, you know, studies, studies and studies.
Sarah: Yes, I know. I need to study as a slayer. And as a high school student as well.
Sarah: By the way, I’ve been meaning to ask: what’s the deal with the Messianic nature of Chabad?
Yaakov: Oh that. First of all, it’s a kinda small minority of us, and secondly it’s kinda rooted in the belief that at any time, every Jew must consider themselves the Messiah and behave accordingly, which will eventually bring the Jewish people and the world at large to salvation and prosperity.
Sarah: [Thinks for a moment] Hmmm… I can relate to it.
Sarah: Tell you what, though? I need to go to the bathroom now. You know: girl things.
Yaakov: Sure, I'll be here waiting for the food.
[ Sarah goes to the bathroom and notices a vampires’ couple getting ready for action. She rushes back to Yaakov. ]
Sarah: Hey, Yaakov. Listen, we have a crisis here right now, and I need you to act like the Messiah. Can you take your book of Tehilim and read from it when I tell you?
Yaakov: I guess! [He rises up and follows her.]
[ They go to meet the vampires. ]
[ Yaakov starts reciting the Psalms. The vampires are terrified. Sarah slays them using a stake. ]
Sarah: Eat dust, bastards!
Yaakov: Wow! What was that?
Sarah: Vampires! I cannot believe I’ve had to put you through that on our first date.
Yaakov: That's OK… that’s OK… [scared] I can handle it.
Sarah: It’s over. It’s over. Come let’s return to our table.
[ She turns to face him. They look at each other for some seconds and then start to kiss one another and make out.
They do it for a while until a girl enters from the restaurant, and looks at them. ]
Restaurant Girl: Get a room!
[ Sarah and Yaakov smile and go on. ]
