There was a Nari, blissfully reading Pratchett instead of writing her russian paper.
There was an annotation:

  "Do they really think that spelling their name backwards* fools anyone?"

* There are many vampire movies in which this trick works remarkably well: in Son of Dracula (1943), Count 'Alucard' travels to the southern USA to marry a disturbed woman who wants to be immortal; in Dracula's Last Rites (1979), vampire Dr A. Lucard runs a mortuary, which keeps him well-stocked with fresh bodies. The same trick occurs in Dracula: the Series (1990), and the films Dr Terror's Galaxy of Horrors (1966) and Dracula: the Dirty Old Man (1969).

D'OOOOOOOH!!!!!!!!
Hellsing's vampire ALUCARD, anyone? And no, I was fooled. I did NOT realize it was Dracula backwards in all the 10 episodes I saw, and only after reading that footnote, a lightbulb flickered to life *headdesks*
D'oh!!!!!
Fail, or what?
