Season 2 starts off with an episode that almost solely consists of Carmilla and Laura flirting adorably. Cue the last few seconds, where Perry walks into the room drenched in blood.

He is a strange looking man: tall, narrow-chested, and stooping, with long hair and a pair of gold glasses… As discussions on how to capture Carmilla take place, Laura and LaFontaine begin searching for dorm room items that could double as anti-vampire weaponry, while Perry refuses to believe that Carmilla is a vampire in the first place, and Danny is on the fence regarding a physical confrontation. Kirsch and several students show up, asking if Laura and the others would like to attend a party, to which they agree, with Laura enlisting Kirsch's help in the attempt to capture Carmilla. She convinces Danny that Kirsch's help is a good thing, and prepares for a confrontation with Carmilla by way of studying vampire lore and training in ways to fight one.
