Ashland, Oregon, USA, 1921
[Edward joins Carlisle at work. They hear about a failed suicide attempt where the woman is barely alive, but impossible to save, thus being left at the morgue. Curious and worried, they make their way to the woman.]
Carlisle: !
Edward: What? What is it?
Carlisle: I recognise her! I treated her ten years ago
Edward: Will I have an amazing memory when I get old enough?
Carlisle (rolling his eyes): Step back for a bit.
[The woman overhears them, slowly opening her eyes, also recognising Carlisle.]
Carlisle: I'm turning her.
Edward: I'm getting a new mother? Sweet. Should I hold her down?
Carlisle (rolling his eyes #2): Shut up, Edward.
[Carlisle turns the woman.]
Edward (to the woman): Hello, I'm Edward, Carlisle's son. Welcome to the fam, Esm—mom.
Carlisle:
Esme:
Carlisle: All right, crash course. We're vampires—which is why you're alive right now—and some of us develop special abilities. Edward is one of them.
Esme: Mind-reading?
Edward: Bingo! I knew my mom would be smart!
Carlisle: Dear God above… Ignore him.
Esme: You speak very funny, Edward. And yes, I'm Esme. It's… nice to meet you, my, eh, my son?

Edward: Is that… a woman?
Carlisle: Why, yes, it is! Good on you, Edward, for making use of those eyes of yours!
Edward (snorting): I think you've been around me too much.
Carlisle: You think?
[Carlisle places a passed-out, newly turned Rosalie on the bed in their guestroom.]
Edward: So, is this my new sister?
Carlisle: Edward… You should know that she might not be in a good place when she wakes up.
Edward: That's fine. I'll be in the kitchen if you need me.
[Rosalie eventually wakes up, Esme being in charge of taking care of her. The woman explains to her what has happened, promising that the men in the coven will leave her alone if she so desires it. Rosalie takes a few days to mull the situation over, before finally leaving her room. Music is playing, and she follows it to the kitchen, where Edward is preparing a buffet for the homeless in the area.]
Rosalie: I thought vampires couldn't eat.
Edward: We can't, and this isn't for us.
Rosalie: Then, who?
[Edward calmly turns to look at her, giving her an easy-going, gentle smile.]
Edward: The homeless.
Rosalie:
Rosalie: Are you… Are you not going to explain?
Edward (shrugging): Nah. I just do it because I can. Do I need an explanation?
Rosalie: I guess not…
Rosalie:
Edward:
Rosalie:
Edward: Wanna help?
Rosalie: … Sure…

Rosalie: No it's not.

Rosalie: Shut up, Edward.

[Carlisle is in his study, peacefully reading up on medical terminology, when Edward kicks open the door.]
Edward: I'm bored! Entertain me!
Carlisle (sighing): Go bake something.
Edward: I already did!
Carlisle: Go play the piano.
Edward: I did that yesterday!
Carlisle: Finish your medical report.
Edward: I already—
Edward:
Edward: Okay, I actually haven't done that, but it's boring, so no!
Carlisle (rolling his eyes): Next time you want to ask me to teach you something, don't. I'm not interested if you won't commit.
Edward (whimpering): But…
Carlisle: No buts!
Edward: Hehe, butts.
[Carlisle bangs his head against the desk.]
