‐ You didn't bring napkins?

[Yen chuckles]
‐ Derrick is gonna kill me.
‐ I sent him a text from your phone.
You're good for the next 24 hours.
‐ That's awfully thoughtful of you.
‐ No, I prefer "tactical."
I don't want him sending SWA
to our office.
So what was this
Keeper Demon saying to you
when you were, you know, batshit crazy?
‐ I can't remember.
I couldn't understand.
I just‐‐
I could just feel what it wanted.
Does that make sense?
‐ Yeah. So you felt like it wanted you
to kill my mom?
‐ I guess?
I don't know.
Sorry about that, by the way.
‐ Hey, you would've been doing us a favor.
Daimon's the one
who would have been pissed.
‐ Oh, please.
You didn't always hate your mom.
‐ What're you talking about?
‐ When you first got to the foster home,
you cried for her.
‐ I don't cry.
‐ You did cry.
You ugly cried.
Sometimes it was just in your sleep,
but other times,
you couldn't hold it in.
We would hide in the basement
until it stopped.
It's okay to miss your mom, Ana.
Not the thing that's puppet‐mastering her,
but your actual mom‐‐
‐ Oh, are you done?
‐ She's literally in
the same building right now.
‐ I'll take that as a no.
You know,
[clears throat]
I don't feel like getting lectured
from a person
who left me a bread crumb trail
of half‐eaten rats.
‐ At least she's still alive.
Some of us don't have that.
‐ Okay, I think Daimon's with her, but
I can put in an appearance
if it will shut you up.
[knocking]
Where do you think
you're going, Rat King?
‐ To a five‐star hotel where I can order
Chateauneuf‐du‐Pape to the room.
‐ Unh‐unh. You're staying here.
Hastings wants you under observation

Ana, I'm fine.

I don't know why he dragged you into this

‐ [sighs] She probably knew
you'd want to shut it down.
The Blood wouldn't have liked that.

get back to your mom.
‐ Hey,
you did the right thing bringing me here.

a proper burial.

Demons don't just fall in line for anyone.
It takes real power.
We would have seen a lot more chaos
if they'd just been set free.

looked worse than it already does.

to make a statement.
What happened here
was organized. Get in,

‐ Victoria's alone.
‐ What? Oh.
I figured big brother would be with her.
That one's got serious mommy issues.
‐ The Blood have been putting
possessed people in comas
and locking them in a hotel.
‐ Say that again, but this time
use words that make sense.
‐ The patients have disappeared.
Daimon thinks someone woke them up.
‐ Let me guess. "Someone"
that we're related to
whose name rhymes with Dad?
‐ Several people were killed.
Daimon's been trying to figure out
what's going on.
‐ Where the hell's 'Taker?
Those are his people.
‐ Called the man a dozen times.
No answer. Voice mail's full.
Ana, I've got rounds.
I need you to stay with your mom,
keep her lucid while we wait
for Daimon to get back.
Then we can figure out
what to do about your father.
‐ You want me to babysit while my dad's
out there with a demonic army?
‐ We can worry about more
than one thing at a time. Trust me.
Making a connection with Victoria is key.
She's fighting to be with you.
ANA: Mm‐mm.
Yeah. She sure is.
‐ I know confronting a monster is easier
than it is a human being.
But I suggest you pull your shit together

‐ Fine.

please don't mention the missing patients.

‐ No.
[sighs]
So you had no inkling that the man
you married and had two children with
was the literal embodiment of evil?
'Cause it was really obvious to me
on our daddy‐daughter excursion.
Were you willfully ignorant
or just stupid?
‐ Maybe both. I don't know.
‐ Oh, bullshit!
[Ana sighs]
‐ Your father was so charming and
kind when we first met.
I was so young
and overwhelmed by him.
His presence filled the room.
‐ Yeah.
I saw it fill a bunch of rooms
right before people died.
‐ I was utterly blind
to who he really was.
Have you ever been in love?
Melancholy music playing ♪
Every time I thought I saw
a flicker of darkness,
he transformed back
into the person I married.
Then he got overly confident.
Started giving me gifts from
the women he'd kill.
Eventually, I was able
to hang on to the thought
that was always scratching
at the back of my mind.
That your father wore a mask.
I made note of
the strange work trips, the lies,
the way the light in his eyes
would disappear,
like someone snuffing out a candle.
At first, I thought
he was just cheating on me‐‐
‐ Why didn't you stop him?
Why didn't you take us and run?
‐ He didn't make mistakes,
you know that.
Your father only let me see who he was
because he wanted me to.
He wanted me to experience
every moment of his cruelty.

Mrs. Flores' family.

Imagine what she went through,
trapped in nightmares.
Your mother survived decades of that.
You must have a lot to ask her.
‐ I just‐‐ I honestly don't even know
where to start.
‐ Anywhere you want.
‐ I just wish we could fast‐forward
through all this,
we could just skip to the place
where we're just happy to see each other
without all this,
this other stuff.
‐ Daimon, you know I‐‐
I read all your files.
‐ Yes.
You are nothing if not tenacious.
The Hercule Poirot of novitiates.
‐ You two have been through a lot,
that's all I'm saying.
‐ Well, I didn't know what else to do.
‐ You were twelve and terrified.
‐ The woman's spent
20 years in a hellscape
only to come out and realize that
her son put her in a padded cell.
I betrayed her.
‐ You did it for her safety and your own.
All mothers have
an endless supply of empathy
when it comes to their children.
You should try having some for yourself.
