"If you think that wouldn't be bad, you don't know how wrong you are. As much as I like to help, I'm also...well, I can do things that I don't entirely understand. I don't eat, or sleep...I can't die..." Eric was powerful. Leeloo was powerful too. Maybe there was hope for him but he doubted it. In cities like these there was always something to watch and deal with.
