Vampire politics aren't for everyone. Especially guys who get turned into vampires by accident. And especially when the higher-ranking vampires drag you to their meeting room in the basement and make you sit in a playpen so you can hear their discussion but not get into trouble or cause a ruckus.
(a little background info, Otto made friends with a demon that the other vampires don't like, and he draws a symbol on himself somewhere to temporarily host that demon - usually for a few days until the sharpie starts to wash off)
