In this short scene, we learn that the wine served in a restaurant is made from dry, blood-soaked wine. The wine tastes like red wine, but the narrator explains that it is made with human blood. In order to make dry wine, the wine must be heated, which means that the human blood must be soaked in the wine for a long period of time before it can be consumed. In this way, the blood can retain its original taste. The narrator then goes on to explain that in order for humans to drink alcohol, they must have been killed in a "state of drunkenness" .
