Diedre--who has a unique female perspective on things that Holmes cannot for all his smarts manufacture--notes an interesting quirk their foe has while watching hours of old vamp flicks and tapes of the Sussex vamp's little disk-breaking show. Holmes, Watson, and the Baker St. Irregulars pursue the data-sucking fiend into its sewer lair...and meet up with an old ""friend"" of Holmes', who is also looking into the vamp matter.
