Heartless (2014) s01e04 Episode Script

Episode 4

- Why can't you accept what we are? - I just want to be normal.
What we have is a gift.
I can't control it.
I have to find out who I am.
Your mother brought you here.
You were only a few weeks old.
Ottman's Boarding School.
That must be where she went.
It's our only lead.
Welcome to a new semester at Ottman's Boarding School.
- Leave! - So is he your boyfriend? People don't fall in love with their food.
- Suck her! - No.
Look.
The heart, Mom had on her wrist.
Countess Gertrud Ottman.
The child is moving.
Who is she? - Don't take our child from me.
- I will look after you.
Confess that you're a witch! Sign the confession, my child.
The girls in our family have certain powers.
I demand that you never show your powers to anyone.
Afraid? From now on, you're no longer head prefect.
What do you think of Ditlev's suicide? I mean, burning yourself alive in the yard.
Classy.
If it even was a suicide, perhaps he was murdered.
- What do you mean? - You know, killed.
By whom, Gustav? How should I know? We have the results of the forensic investigation and we found a fingerprint from Ditlev Hartvig on the glass of ether in the attic.
So it would seem he set himself on fire.
Although it is a highly unusual way to commit suicide.
Well, it could've been an accident.
Did you notice any changes in his demeanour lately? Yes, he seemed very unstable and oddly manic.
Ditlev was the head prefect, but I demoted him because he was unbalanced.
I have no doubt that it affected him and I'm convinced it was a suicide.
So - You'll hear from us again.
- Yes, thank you.
That's really nice of you and I'd appreciate if you'd be discreet for the sake of the school's future.
I'll walk you to your car.
The court states that the accused, Ane Soerendaughter, to the court has confirmed that she has entered into a pact with Satan obtaining devilish powers with which she performed heinous deeds and led innocents astray.
And she has propagated with Satan.
In order to save her soul, her body and the unborn child will be devoured by flames one week after this verdict is proclaimed.
What about my child? The fire will set your child free and keep it by your side for eternity.
You promised me You promised me.
You promised me! This is not you speaking.
It is the Devil! Soon you will find salvation and peace with our Lord in Heaven.
I completely understand that Ditlev's death was a shock.
We didn't see it coming.
It doesn't make any sense.
You must tell me what I interrupted in the barn.
Yes It was Sophie.
Sophie had stolen a key.
A key to the attic and when we punished her, it got out of control.
I will not accept that sort of behaviour in my school.
There's more.
Yes? The other day when I was in Ditlev's room, he was pissed about the Sophie incident, but it didn't break him.
He was OK.
He was fine.
I don't think it was suicide.
Pieter, I appreciate your honesty.
I'm grateful for that.
It's a great quality.
But if I'm to overlook the episode in the barn, you should keep your observations to yourself.
Is that understood? Please find out where Sophie was the night Ditlev died.
- Yes.
- Thank you.
- Ditlev's suicide - Yes? Do you believe in it? The police found an empty bottle of ether in the attic.
That bottle was only empty because I had emptied it.
We can't have the police snooping around.
So you think it was one of them? Who? Ida, what's going on with Emilie these days? She won't talk to me anymore.
She just wants to know what's going on.
With her as well.
I remember how I felt.
- Is she friends with the Sophie girl? - Yes.
Is that significant? No.
I don't know.
We must keep an eye on Emilie.
I don't want her to end up like your mother.
That won't happen, Dad.
I promise.
What's wrong? - There's something going on.
- No.
You're in love, right? Nah.
You just slept with him.
- Who are we even talking about? - Sebastian, the new boy.
No! No way.
- Is it Pieter? - It's not him.
Dad'll totally freak out.
I sure hope so.
I want you to know that I regret having appointed him head prefect.
I don't mind admitting that.
I thought I was a better judge of character.
Having said that, I think it's crucial that we have all the information.
- So that it won't happen again.
- What sort of information? We can start with the conflict between you and Ditlev.
I wouldn't exactly call it a conflict.
He came on to me and I rejected him.
I think he had a hard time with that.
Wasn't there an incident at the moor? - When I fell in the water? - He pushed you? No, I fell in the water.
Just like everybody else fell in the water.
What about the incident in the barn? I don't know what you would call it.
Pranks that got out of hand? But after that, it was like he lost interest.
Like he knew it was too much.
Sophie, where were you when Ditlev died? - In the shower.
- Who were you with? - I usually shower alone.
- But was there anybody else? No.
What did he say? What did he ask you? Where I was when he was murdered.
- Do you think he suspects anything? - I don't know.
It felt like he was testing me.
What do you mean? At one point, he leaned in towards me and opened his mouth as if to test whether I would - Whether I would suck him.
- Suck him? What are you saying? It just seemed like he knew something.
If a single lead points to us, we're done, you know that, right? Which is why you running around with Nadja is pretty stupid.
What about you and Emilie? - That's different, Sebastian.
- Ask her about the gold heart.
Whether she or her family has it.
Anything.
We're so close to finding out who we are.
- Well? - Fine.
- May I sit here? - Mmm.
Water? - I had a nice time.
- Me, too.
Do you have any plans today? No.
Why? I thought we could do our homework together.
Around 3? Sure.
In the library or? Or in my room? OK.
and that.
- Yes, of course.
What happened to your eye? - Stay out of it, Sebastian.
- Is it that Pede? - Well? Answer me! - Just go.
- Didn't you hear her? - What the hell are you doing? Butt out! Josephine, who is he? Answer me, Josephine.
Did you do something with him? What are you doing? You can't just hit him in the head with a bottle! I'll look after you.
I just want to look after you.
Don't look after me.
You're not my boyfriend.
You don't even know how to kiss me.
Go.
Get lost! 10 pages on each subject and 2-3 students per group.
"King and Nobility"? - Nadja? - Yeah, me too.
Gustav and Sebastian, if he decides to show up.
"Tenant farmers.
" Sophie.
- Me, too.
- Good.
And Emilie.
"Church"? Pieter and Lærke.
And "Dano-Swedish Wars".
Furthermore, the farmer was in servitude which meant doing work for the squire.
Villain.
The squire also had obligations towards the King in particular.
He had to provide soldiers in case of war and provisions, horses and equipment to the army.
If he couldn't, the King could give his estate to someone else.
That's how we got this place.
Some family lost everything and the King gave it to us.
Are you related to Caroline Just? Yes.
We're distant relations.
Why do you ask about her? It's just that I saw, I saw a painting of her where she was wearing a heart pendant.
- I thought it might be an heirloom.
- It doesn't ring a bell.
How about your family? Where are you from? Sebastian and I are orphans.
So, I've never met or heard of my father.
And my mother abandoned us when we were infants.
OK.
I have one memory of her.
She pulls me close.
But it's probably something I made up.
My mom died three years ago.
She committed suicide, so She was depressed or so they say.
What do you mean? You don't believe it? Right before she died, I was home picking something up.
And I saw her with another man.
Either she was bummed out at being with my dad or the other guy was bad in bed.
I don't know.
But she died shortly after.
- Does it say anything else? - Yes.
What the hell? Hello? Anyone there? Hello? Anyone? Hello? Hello? No one needs to know about this.
It's out there and it'll soon be hungry.
- Did you finish up in the basement? - Yes, I put up two more fastenings.
- And they'll hold up? - Sure.
I don't want any more incidents.
We must catch it.
I'll search the school.
You search the area.
- Ida? - Uh huh - What it is Dad wants to catch? - Catch? What do you mean? Ida, don't you ever feel like just taking off? - And doing something wild.
- Why would I do that? Don't you ever want to travel or just see something other than this? Dad needs me.
- Shut up with the "Dad needs me".
- Shut up yourself.
You don't get it! He's using you! What do you know about anything? The sex must be really great.
Shut the hell up! One more? Our family has a job to do.
We can't just take off.
What job? Ask your dad.
- Keep this place tidy.
- Yes, I apologize.
I won't have cans on the floor.
What part didn't you understand? None of it.
I didn't touch it! Emilie, come with me, please.
Have you lost your mind? - Do you think this is a circus? - Stop it! - It was just for fun.
- For fun? They used to burn people at the stake for having your powers.
Your powers are dangerous.
They're much bigger than you.
Relax.
How dangerous can it be? You'll do as I say.
And keep your powers to yourself.
- Have you seen my black shoes? - No.
- You didn't happen to borrow them? - Your shoes don't fit me.
- You know, that weird janitor lady? - Yes? She asked me all sorts of things about the day Ditlev died.
Mostly she asked about you.
Where you were when it happened? And stuff like that.
Where have you been? - I just saw a strange girl.
- We need to talk about something.
Wait.
Listen, I almost ran her over.
And I found this cave with dead animals.
Like when we started.
We've never met anyone like us.
I think I sensed her hunger.
And you're sure it wasn't your hunger? Damn.
- I have a date with Nadja.
- We need to talk about something.
I've lost a shoe.
So? I think it fell off when Ditlev grabbed me.
So I think it It's still in the locked attic.
- You'll have to pick that lock.
- Yes.
If Just finds it, he'll figure out you were involved in Ditlev's death.
OK! You will find the shoe! OK? Nadja? Where were you? Didn't we have plans at 3? I'm just entertainment to you.
You couldn't care less about me.
What are you talking about? Listen, I saw how you touched her.
The kitchen maid.
You don't touch me like that.
I'm just someone you can do all your perverse acts with.
You're playing with me.
I actually felt sick last time.
Don't touch me.
Don't, Sebastian! Nadja? - I caught one.
- Are you sure? No, no, no.
Don't be afraid.
Where did you find her? We caught her in the forest.
I have to check if it's one of them.
Is that how you found Ditlev? There, there Good job.
Here.
- You gave me a shock.
- I'm hungry.
Very hungry.
Weren't you getting some from Nadja? No, she's starting to be difficult.
I think I saw that girl again.
Where are you going? To Emilie's.
Can you get some? - Hi.
- Hi.
So this is where you're hiding.
So we were at tenant farmers.
The King, the Church and squires could have tenant farmers.
Do you know what I'd like to do? No? They are merciless, gruesome killers.
They have an omnivorous appetite.
- What the hell are you doing? - He sucks my insides out! Sebastian is sick! Who was the girl? You must be mistaken.
What are you doing? Close all the windows and the door and don't let anyone in.
Where's Emilie?
