Bernie is a boy who lives in the same neighborhood as Mitchell, George and Annie.
Mitchell makes friends with him after he stops him being bullied. Mitchell lends him a Laurel and Hardy DVD , but the boy accidentally takes the vampire porn/snuff film DVD that Lauren had sent Mitchell previously. When Bernie's mother finds it, Mitchell is branded a paedophile. Later one night, while the people from the street are rioting against George and Mitchell, Bernie is hit by a car and slips into a coma from which the doctors say he will never recover. Mitchell feels so much guilt he offers to Bernie’s mother the option to turn him into a vampire, which she accepts. At the end of that episode, Bernie is seen at a train station, meeting his mother. Bernie goes to thank Mitchell, who walks away from him because he still feels guilt for leading Bernie to his coma, resulting in his death.
