Heartless (2014) s01e06 Episode Script

PREVIOUSLY ON HEARTLESS Pieter will assume the title.
Yes, but the new head prefect must be liked by the students.
That's why Pieter is the perfect choice.
I know you're odd, and But I don't care.
Here.
Where is Emilie? At the Pavilion.
I'm off for a smacking.
See you.
You cannot tell anyone what I'm about to share with you.
Whether it was Ane's supernatural powers or the pendant she wore, no one knows, but her child miraculously survived the flames.
Our family descends from that child and you have your special powers from Ane.
So if any of you suspect who might be cursed Don't ever do that again! tell me now.
- Your eyes Emilie? It's them or us.
OTTMAN'S FOREST 1678 Marie.
Marie, where are you? Marie, what are you doing? Is it far? You said we were almost there an hour ago.
Don't you want to find others like us? She may know something that we don't.
Sebastian.
Come here.
Is it just me, or does that look like a grave? It's her.
She's so cold.
Look around.
There are more.
Many more.
- Who's doing this? - I saw the janitors take her away.
Who'd kill a little girl? Who are all these people? A ring? Do you think she's like us? Yes, I do.
Hunger is their curse.
And someone bears the curse at our school.
You can't tell them apart from us, but when they eat, their eyes turn black.
Emilie? Emilie, are you in here? Close your eyes.
Hi.
Hi.
Was your dad really mad? No.
- But he told me a secret.
- What secret? - Put me down! - Why didn't you tell me who you are? You're cursed.
Why didn't you tell me about your past? You're an Ottman.
Everything your family touches wilts.
Everything you love dies.
Heartless your family will wander.
Hungry without being filled.
Put me down.
This hurts! I want you and your brother to get the hell out of here! I want nothing to do with a cursed one.
Don't go, Emilie - Are you coming down to eat? - No.
I'm not hungry.
How did you become like this? - What do you mean? - That stuff you do when we kiss.
- Can I become like you? - You don't want to.
- Why not? - Fuck, Nadja! If you really like me, you'll accept me for who I am, and stop asking questions.
We're not going steady, and we don't own each other.
Got it? Fine.
But fuck friends should fuck, so let's do it soon.
OK? So we're out of the Ottman family? Yes, so she said.
Did she say why we're cursed? - Only that it had to do with our past.
- What did she say exactly? Something along the lines of, "Heartless we will wander" Sofie, this is important.
Tell me her exact words.
"Everything your family touches wilts.
Everything you love dies.
"Heartless your family will wander.
Hungry without being filled.
" That sums up our life perfectly.
Everything we touch wilts.
- And everything we love dies.
- She wants us to leave.
I know you like her.
It's just that it's the first time Why do you think I've struggled to make us normal? Because I want us to be able to love someone without them dying.
Maybe she's right.
Maybe we should leave this shithole.
No.
We have to stay.
There must be a way to break the curse, and we'll find it here.
The people in the graves must have been looking for the same thing.
Who do you think they were? This is a doctor's signet ring from the University of Copenhagen.
- Think our mum is buried out there? - Maybe.
First I want to find out who owned this.
Get Emilie to find that gold heart.
How? She doesn't want anything to do with me.
Show her that it's serious.
That they're going to kill us.
Hi.
- I'm sorry about Pede.
- Well, he shouldn't drink and drive.
Don't.
Don't.
Sorry.
I just feel so guilty.
Why? I used Pede at the Pavilion to get back at you.
Don't worry about it.
It was mean of me.
- I have to get back to work.
- Let's meet up later? - I'll come to your room - No! You wanted to see me, Dad? Yes.
- Are you hiding something from me? - Like what? Do you know who bears the curse at school? Tell me.
The way Ditlev burned proves there is someone here.
The police called it suicide.
The police don't know the truth.
But I do.
Dad, what do you do to them when you catch them? Do you kill them? - It's them or us.
- So you kill them.
This isn't a game.
They have no conscience.
They gain their victims' confidence slowly, but surely, and then suddenly - Do you know something? - Let go.
So here you are.
Hey.
Are you still thinking about the cursed ones? It's so weird.
Imagine if we were the cursed ones.
It might as well have been us.
Can't we help them somehow? - What do you mean? - Well Deliver them somehow.
Break their curse.
You're so sweet.
- Did Dad tell you more about all this? - No.
But it reminded me of something Mum did just before she died.
- What did she do? - She was on the phone with someone.
They were talking about Grandma's gold heart, which Ane wore to the stake.
She said she had to get it for someone who needed it.
- Do you know where the heart is now? - No.
How are things with your boyfriend? - Why do you ask? - I'm just curious.
Well, we broke up.
I have to run.
What are we doing out here anyway? I want to show you something.
Why did I let you talk me into this? I told you to get the hell out of here.
We can't.
Why not? We have to stay here.
We're convinced our salvation is here.
It has something to do with the gold heart.
Emilie, we don't kill.
We think it's the janitors.
- You should be more afraid of my dad.
- Why? You and your brother shouldn't be here.
It's dangerous.
Do you think I like being cursed? I wish I were normal.
Won't you help me? So stay, then.
But that doesn't mean we're back together.
I don't want to.
Where But She's gone.
They must have They dug them all up.
- Make sure it never happens again.
- No one will find any more out there.
- Do you know who it was? - No.
I'll look into it.
- You wanted to see us? - Come in.
Pieter, remember our agreement? I'm to keep an eye on Emilie.
So what did you find out? Nothing yet.
Frederik, you'd better help Pieter.
- Sure.
- I'll find out who she's seeing.
Whoever helps me gets a big reward.
Emilie said that the one we ought to be afraid of Was her dad.
Just? She just meant he'd expel us.
What if he killed all those people and the janitors are just his helpers? I sure hope she hasn't told him anything about you, then.
- What are you doing? - Looking for missing persons.
- Why? - I want to find the owner of this.
Look.
The local paper, five years ago.
The new town doctor, Thomas Gundersen.
He vanished without a trace after just six months.
You think the ring was his, and he was in that grave? Maybe.
He had a degree in gastroenterology which entitled him to wear that, but still he chose to become a doctor out here in the sticks.
What was he after here? I don't know.
That's what I want to find out.
- Your name again? - Sebastian Nielsen.
- My mother's maiden name was Gundersen.
- You're into genealogy? It interests me.
And suddenly, I discovered this unknown great-uncle, Thomas Gundersen.
- I only knew him for six months.
- Do you know anything about him? He came from a position as head doctor at the National Hospital in Copenhagen.
- What was he doing out here, then? - Don't know, but he was eager to work here.
Did he have anything to do with Ottman's Manor? He was the family doctor there.
- What kind of a reputation did he have? - Well People said that he was very eager to see the young female patients.
I never told anyone about this, but One night I saw him kissing a female patient.
I only caught a glimpse of them, but it was strange.
He kissed her in a frightening manner.
I'm sure it's nothing.
Did he leave anything behind? Some old papers in a box.
Nothing of interest to you.
I'd love to see them.
Sure.
It's in here.
Here you go.
He said something just before he disappeared.
"Soon, everything will be better.
" As if he'd found the solution to all his problems.
- Found anything useful? - Not really.
I thought about what you said about becoming normal.
I'm not normal either.
When I get mad, I can't control myself.
- I've got the bruises to show for it.
- Yeah, I'm sorry about that.
I miss you.
A lot.
Kiss me.
I'm afraid to.
You know I can handle it.
Kiss me.
Do it.
Emilie, we've got to help each other become normal.
Or we'll end up killing each other.
- So, Josefine - Hi.
Rumour has it you and Pede met that night at the Pavilion.
- What's it to you? - It was the night Pede died.
- What were you doing there? - We just kissed out back.
For old times' sake.
Was there anyone else? - What? - Did you see anyone else there? - Did anyone see you? - In the forest? - Yeah, in the forest.
- No.
No Goddamn it.
Something doesn't add up.
What do you mean? - I don't think he was alone in the car.
- Why not? Don't you think it's strange that his car caught on fire all of a sudden? Were you seeing someone else from this school while you were seeing Pede? - That's what Pede told one of his friends.
- Pede and I broke up long ago.
- Anyway, he was paranoid.
- Was he? Yes.
What's up, Pieter? Spying on the new couple on campus? Yes.
Cute, aren't they? You think Just knows his daughter is a little alternative? Not yet.
We'll tell him.
"We"? No, we won't, Frederik.
I'll handle it.
Thank you very much.
We'll see about that.
Frederik.
Come here.
Your tie is crooked.
Let me fix it.
Don't you ever push me to the edge again.
OK? Is that understood? Get lost.
Yes? Am I interrupting anything? Never, Pieter.
- It's about Emilie.
- Yes? - She's seeing someone.
- Who? It's - It's a girl.
- What do you mean? Sofie from her year.
What are you implying? I saw them in the yard.
They held each other They're involved.
- Did they kiss? - Yes, they kissed.
And touched.
They're girlfriends.
Fine.
Thank you, Pieter.
- Hi.
- Hi.
I talked to the janitor today.
What did he have to say? He thinks Pede was murdered.
What makes him think that? I haven't got a clue.
- Did you have anything to do with it? - No way.
- Did you? - No.
No, I didn't.
Well, I just I've missed you like crazy.
Come here.
I just want to be with you.
- You mean that? - Yes.
- For real? - Yes.
OK.
If you really mean it, then kiss me.
No, for real.
Sebastian, why won't you kiss me? I want to, but I can't right now.
Promise me you'll someday tell me why.
I will.
How many times have I told Emilie to stay away from the other students? She's involved with another girl, and so what? Ida, I can't control her.
If you forbid her to see Sofie, she's bound to rebel.
Leave her alone, Dad.
It'll pass.
The doctor was an Ottman, too.
He was like us.
So we aren't the only Ottmans? - There must be many more.
- Exactly.
I found some old papers with drawings of the gold heart.
And I found this.
We must find out who she is.
I know who she is.
Emilie's mother.
The one who died.
Ever heard of knocking? Sure.
I'd just like to talk to you.
- I miss Grandma, too.
- Her necklace is beautiful.
Someday, you or one of your sisters will inherit it, and you can wear it, too.
- Where is it? - At the school.
- Why is it hidden away? - How are you doing anyway? - Why do you ask? - Well I'd just like to know how you're doing.
How I'm doing? Yeah I've been thinking, and I think we ought to spend more time together.
Get better acquainted.
And I'd like to say that I've been too stern on the subject of dating.
I'd just like to say that if you meet someone you like, then it's OK with me.
Even if it's a girl.
- What do you know? - I know a lot, Emilie.
It's my job.
So you know I know about your special relationship with a certain someone, and I know all the details.
- All the details? - Well, not details irrelevant to a dad.
But I'm not worried.
Those kinds of relationships rarely last long.
Sofie My dad knows all about us.
- That we're together.
- Does he know about me? I don't know.
I just don't want anything to happen to you.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
Well, now you know.
Just be careful.
I will.
Emilie.
Where is the gold heart? I think it's in my dad's office.
OK.
- What do you mean? - She seemed frightened.
And I don't want to end up in a mass grave in the forest.
Hey, we won't.
Get a grip.
- I just asked you to get information.
- And I got some.
Emilie thinks the heart is in her dad's office.
And don't you start! You have feelings for someone, too.
- In his office? - Yes.
Ida Ida - What's going on? - I sense someone nearing the heart.
- Now? - Yes, now, Dad! Wait here.
Is it there? Ida? Ida! NEXT TIME ON HEARTLESS You attacked my sister, you psycho! - We have to find out who was in here, Pieter.
- Yes.
What do you want? Sebastian! Someone's coming! Fuck, man!
