Heartless (2014) s01e02 Episode Script

PREVIOUSLY ON HEARTLESS Sebastian, you have to get some.
Why can't you accept what we are? - I just want to be normal, Sofie.
- What we have is a gift.
- I can't control it.
- Then let me do it.
Stop! Stop! You'll kill him! Stop! I couldn't control it.
We have to find out what we are.
Your mother brought you here.
You were only a few weeks old.
I think she was a drug addict.
Ottman's Boarding School.
She must have gone straight there.
Welcome to a new semester.
Who are they? Headmaster Just's daughters.
The untouchables.
- Stay.
- What the hell are you doing? What the hell are you doing here? You have to let me do something about Ditlev.
Don't touch the pupils.
Look.
It's the heart Mum had on her wrist.
- Who's Gertrud? - That's what we have to find out.
Christian? Who's she? OTTMAN'S MANOR 1666 OTTMAN'S MOOR - Will I be banished? - No, of course you won't.
- They mustn't take the baby.
- I'll take good care of you.
- Do you promise? - Yes.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
I'll take care of our child.
I'm your wife.
Marriage involves commitment, Christian.
You can't just do whatever you want.
I'm expecting our baby.
You've brought shame on our name.
OTTMAN'S BOARDING SCHOOL Next week's theme is the rich and the poor in the 1600s.
It was a time characterised by inequality between the rich and the poor.
A time characterised by superstition, piety and fear of the unknown.
Class dismissed.
Sofie, I looked up the material on the glass mosaic in the library.
There's nothing in the archives about who the woman was.
- Nothing at all? - The mosaic is from the late 1600s.
The owner at the time, Thorkild Just, didn't marry until the early 1700s.
OK.
Good luck with the moor christening.
Take care.
- The moor christening? - An initiation rite for new pupils.
OTTMAN'S HEADMASTER'S HOUSE - What about the christening tonight? - What about it? You know that Dad doesn't want you to go.
- It's none of his business.
- He'll make it his business.
I want to see the ghost.
If it exists.
Clara, it only shows itself once a year, and those who can see it - What? are cursed forever! I scared you.
Emilie? Why aren't you in school? - I have cramps.
- Ridiculous! - What do you know? You're not a girl.
- Periods only come once a month.
Are you calling me a liar? Get going! Fencing class starts soon.
I've bled like a stuck pig all night.
Sometimes I wish I were a boy.
Boys are little wusses.
The headmaster must have files.
We can find something on Gertrud.
There's no one here.
Come.
Sebastian.
Come! Come on! Look over there.
Gertrud, Gertrud, Gertrud.
Gertrud, Gertrud.
Here.
It eases the pain.
- One of Grandma's yucky recipes? - Grandma's yucky recipes work.
Drink.
If it contains snake, I'll hate you.
You'll love me when the pain is gone.
- Christ, that's disgusting! - Get dressed and go to school.
Let's go to the office.
Emilie is getting out of hand.
- You didn't at her age.
- Everyone is different, Dad.
She's just like your mother.
I'll keep an eye on her.
Thanks, Ida.
What would I do without you? Let's go.
We're late.
Could you give me a hand? Gertrud - I'm hungry, Sebastian.
- That's why we have to find Gertrud.
Look at this.
- Is it Gertrud? - No.
Then get a move on! I think it's our mother.
Let me see.
Wow! I look like her, don't I? Totally.
Let's take it out.
Take it with you.
Ida? Ida? - Would you copy these? - Yes.
Thanks.
- Do you have an appointment? - No.
We just came to say that we like this school.
We feel very much at home here and feel it's the right place for us.
I heard that you grew up in an orphanage.
Yes.
It's nice to get some fresh blood.
- Will that be all? - Yes.
You didn't know any better, but next time, wait outside my office.
And hurry.
Fencing class starts in 10 minutes.
No, Sebastian.
Bend your leg.
The other leg.
Get ready.
Do you feel balanced? And lunge! That's it.
Long lines.
Do you feel balanced? No! Take a break.
You'll learn.
Foils up! Allez! One, two, three, four! - Hi, Sebastian.
- Hi.
- You're good at it.
- No, I suck.
It's really hard.
- Yes.
- Yes.
Then you're probably good at something else.
- I don't know.
Maybe.
- That's fine, then.
4-2 to Emilie.
Good job.
I enjoyed our last encounter.
It was fun.
Yes, for you.
We can do something about it.
Where are you going? Just so you know, I'm keeping an eye on you.
5-2.
Emilie wins.
Are you looking forward to the moor christening tonight? Next! - Are you listening, Sofie? - Who's next? I am.
Allez! Touché.
1-0 to Emilie.
Allez! Touché again.
2-0 to Emilie.
Continue.
Allez! - Foul! 3-0 to Emilie.
- What? Quiet! No kicking! Continue.
4-0.
Fie, stop! Go back.
Allez! Stop, Sofie! Disqualified.
It's against the rules.
Go take a shower! Now! That goes for you, too.
Are you afraid of water? Your fencing style is very different.
That was a compliment.
If you learn the basics, you could be really good.
You break the rules.
Why are you looking at me like that? No reason.
OK.
I'll see you at the christening.
What is it? Everyone's talking about it.
It's a secret party.
The new pupils are christened, and there's something about a ghost.
A troubled woman, who Why are you shaking? - Are you all right? - I'm fine.
Forget the christening! You know how I feel about water.
- I want to leave this psycho school.
- Stop it! We're staying here until we figure out who we are.
What was our mother doing here? I'll ask the staff.
They must remember her.
Sebastian.
You have to get some.
You owe me, and I'm hungry.
If I have to keep my hands off the pupils, you either get me something today, or I'm leaving.
- Agnete? - Yes? Do you have a minute? I want to ask you something.
- Do you know who this is? - It's Laura.
She was a good girl.
She was a whiz in the kitchen until she disappeared.
- Disappeared? - It was very strange.
Suddenly she was gone and without her things or her pay.
- When was that? - The night of the moor christening.
It's almost 20 years ago today.
She was looking for someone named Gertrud.
Does the name ring a bell? - Gertrud.
That's odd.
- Is it? People don't know that the christening used to be called Gertrud's Night.
It's named after the ghost that's said to appear that night.
Why are you asking me about Laura? Because I'm related to her.
Distantly related.
No one knows what happened to her, so I thought I'd find out.
After she left, Just and the janitor emptied her room.
Her room was in the attic.
I suppose your family got her things.
Yes, I suppose so.
- Come here.
- Don't.
- Stop it! - Give me a kiss.
Stop it! Go away! Leave me alone! Fucking cow! - It's open.
- Are you OK? Sorry.
- This is a nice room.
- It's my workplace.
Don't bother me.
Is your name Josey? Josefine.
I'm Sebastian.
I'm busy.
So is Pieter your boyfriend or something? He was.
He can't tell the difference between the past and present tense.
I'm off work now, so Right.
Do you want to ask me something? No.
I mean yes.
Yes.
Yes.
- Gertrud.
- Gertrud? I mean Laura.
I have a picture of her.
This was her room.
I'd better leave.
Yes.
I I'll leave now.
Bye.
Did you get some from the maid? - No.
- No? Why not? - You've got to be kidding! - What? You're in love.
No, I'm not.
The rest of the world doesn't fall in love with its food.
- Suck her! - I didn't want to.
I don't care! I'm dying! I can't take this much longer.
If I can't keep it under control, she'll die, Sofie.
- I'll get some myself.
- No, I will.
Then do it! I found out who Gertrud was.
The moor christening was originally called Gertrud's Night.
It's named after a ghost that only shows itself tonight.
Are you telling me that our mother came here to find a ghost? Her name was Laura.
Get some.
OTTMAN'S MANOR 1666 I don't see the weakness in you, only the strength of the Devil, Christian.
The Devil is most convincing when he looks like a lovely wench.
The thought has already struck you.
A witch.
A witch? She's not a witch.
Do you want to lose all of this? - What would you have me do? - What befits your title.
She must admit her covenant with the Devil and be burnt to save her soul.
- You have to give the order.
- I can't.
I can't.
Christian You have to leave.
What about our baby? Take this.
And go far away.
Take it! Take it.
As you know, Ditlev, the teachers don't interfere with the moor christening.
So Officially, I don't know that it takes place.
You get your fun and games, and the school avoids a mutiny.
I'd like you to make sure that it doesn't get out of hand.
- I'll keep it under control.
- Good.
Don't do anything I'll have to deal with later.
Right.
That'll be all.
One more thing.
If Emilie turns up at the christening, let me know.
I forbade her to go, but you know her.
So if you'd do me the favour Of course.
Got it.
Just says it mustn't get out of hand.
Can we obey that? It's difficult.
- Is everything all set? - Of course not.
- Don't pull on it.
- I'm not.
- You are too! Be careful.
- Why are you wearing Mum's dress? - Because it's pretty.
- Did you get permission? Take it off.
Why? You're not going to the christening.
Turn around, Emilie.
- Turn around! - Shut the fuck up! Don't you dare talk to me like that.
Let's go see Dad.
Fine, Ida! Then take it off! Take it off! Relax.
Get a dustpan and clean it up.
Now! - Did you see that? - Yes.
Did you see what I did? Here, Dad.
Emilie has started.
- Already? - Yes.
I was over 20, and she's 17.
Make sure that Emilie doesn't go to that stupid christening.
Yes.
It's stuck.
Damn dress.
Your brother Is he seeing anyone? Why do you ask? I'm just wondering.
- Sebastian isn't boyfriend material.
- What do you mean? It always goes wrong.
In what way? - How? - He sucks the life out of them.
Damn.
Is it because he hasn't met the right girl? Are you sure? Are you coming? Sure? - I'll stay here.
- OK.
See you.
- What's up? Where's Sofie? - She isn't coming.
- See you later.
- She doesn't like water.
Nadja is looking for you.
If you're not interested, tell her so.
- OK.
- Get it? Don't hurt her feelings.
Fine.
- Where is she? - Over there.
See you.
Sebastian? Here.
- No, thanks.
- Come on.
I don't feel like it.
- Do you think the ghost will appear? - I don't believe in ghosts.
I believe in you.
You shouldn't.
You have amazing hair.
I've never seen such amazing hair.
I think I could fall in love with you.
Just because of your hair.
Good evening, Sofie.
Please come with us.
There you are.
I was afraid you weren't coming.
We have a tradition at this school.
It's the moor christening.
If you make it, you're initiated pupils.
And those who don't make it, fuck you.
Witches used to be thrown in the lake.
If they floated, they were innocent, but if they sank, they were guilty.
- Is that the way it was? - We'll test it.
Let's see if we have any witches.
- Ott man! - Ott man! - Ott man! - Ott man! - Ott man! - Ott man! - Ott man! - Let's go back to the others.
- Or we could stay here.
- No.
- Let's stay.
I'm going back.
- Are you afraid? - I can't swim.
Sebastian! Sebastian! Sofie? Sofie! I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Was the water wet? - What's your problem? - Who do you think you are? Take it easy.
- You're done.
- The party's over.
Back to your rooms.
I can't take it any more.
See you.
Nadja? Nadja? Fuck! You frightened me! Give me your clothes.
What happened at the lake? - Nothing.
- Come on! I helped one of the new pupils out of the water.
Sofie.
Dad said you shouldn't go there.
You're not my mother, Ida.
I'm better than Mum ever was.
I'm trying to be there for Dad.
You cook and get his paper.
Do you fuck him, too? I got some.
See you tomorrow.
Find the heart.
Find the heart.
NEXT TIME ON HEARTLESS - I would like to fight Ditlev.
- Follow the rules! Dig up some dirt on her.
Let's see if she ever sees the light of day again.
- How do you get up there? - The prefects have keys.
I demand that you never use or show your abilities to others.
- You have beautiful eyes.
- Was it the kitchen maid? I don't think this is a good idea.
- Look at me, damn it! - Fuck you!
