I enjoy the scene towards the end where Natalie asks
Nick about the bullets he hands her, "And where did I find
these?" The utterly nonchalant way she asks it! Of course,
isn't this what every coroner does? (At least ones whose
best friend is a vampire.)

Janette would expect nothing less from Nick.
Nick's opening the door for her is to be expected;
it's the way the world works, of course.
Ah, how I wish some of these manners were still in vogue.
