This Blood's for You

A character needs a blood transfusion, and it comes from someone they find repulsive (or at least off-putting).

Seinfeld

Kramer has been "hoarding" his own blood "just in case," so when Jerry accidentally sends a knife flying through the air to land in his neck, Kramer supplies the blood for his transfusion.
