The Gates s01e13 Episode Script

Previously, on The Gates It's devil's-weed.
And I've seen it do miracles.
It was Devon.
She was blackmailing me.
My blood for her silence.
Now, this toxin could kill any vampire.
I just had no idea that Devon would go this far to get back at me.
What about Devon? She's gone.
Then this isn't over there are too many people's lives at stake here.
There's someone who will make sure that she never gets back alive.
What do we do now? We're leaving the Gates.
Are you sure? And what about long term? Right.
All right, good.
No, that's That's great.
Thanks, Peg.
That's Peg.
She checked your blood.
Whatever Devon gave you is out of your system, so you're gonna be fine.
Yeah, well, Frank and Vanessa are dead because of me, so I'm not gonna be fine for a pretty long time.
Listen to me.
It is not your fault.
Yeah, well, either way, I'll feel a lot better once we're out of here.
All right, well, you and the kids will go to your sister's in the morning, and I'll figure out how to get out of hereSafely.
Okay.
Be careful.
There's nothing back there.
Maybe Devon didn't return.
Somebody was here.
By the looks of things, they were in a hurry.
Who? Perhaps we can talk to the council.
We'll make them understand that you were blackmailed.
My blood helped create the very poison that could end us all.
There will be no understanding.
My only hope is to find her before she's found by another vampire Because if it's the last thing that she does, she will tell them it was me.
Dylan.
She was looking for somewhere to hide.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to scare you.
Are you sure no one saw you? I'm positive.
And I got everything on the list.
Devon, what's going on? Why are you here? I don't want you to worry about all that.
Just know that with what you've brought me, everything's gonna be fine.
I-I don't understand.
What are you making? A safeguard.
With this spell, I'll be able to look ahead and see exactly what I need to do to protect myself.
Protect yourself? Did you have something to do with Vanessa Buckley? I heard about what happened to her.
I knew it must've been some kind of spell.
I provided Frank with a means to protect himself.
If she hadn't tried to turn him into a vampire, Vanessa would be fine.
Trust me, Frank will thank me one day.
Devon Frank Buckley is dead.
He killed himself earlier tonight.
I need you to leave now.
No.
Let me help you.
It will help me to know that you're safe, and That means being as far from me as you can get.
Impero maligne spiritus.
Impero maligne spiritus.
Impero maligne spiritus.
Impero maligne spiritus.
Impero maligne spiritus.
Hey.
What's with the suitcases? I need you two to go upstairs and pack your clothes.
I resigned as chief.
We're leaving the Gates.
What? Why would you quit your job? No way.
I'm not going through this again.
I like it here.
We like it here.
I know.
Charlie, I Dad, what did you do? Hey! Charlie, your father didn't do anything.
We came to this decision together.
It's not safe here.
Now, I'll explain more later, but I need you both to go upstairs and pack your suitcases.
You're going to your aunt's house.
You can't make this decision and not tell us why.
Okay, you know what? You're right.
Okay? It's not fair.
But you're just gonna have to trust us on this one, okay? Please, just go upstairs and start packing.
Please, Charlie.
Mom.
You heard your mother.
Move.
What's with the 911? You got to help me.
Last night, when I left you guys, I did something really, really stupid.
What? What did you do? I snuck into Andie's room and added water to her medicine, diluted it, so it wouldn't work anymore.
Brett, why would you do that? I was just so mad that she went back with Charlie.
I thought that if he knew what she really was, he wouldn't want to be with her anymore.
Well, what do you expect me to do? Maybe you could help me sneak into her locker and switch back her meds? No.
You're going to tell her what you did.
How can I ever admit to her that I did something this bad? I I don't know.
But If Andie's not getting her medicine, she could hurt Charlie, so come on.
Have a seat.
Listen.
I think there could be some fallout from Buckley's death.
I'm gonna need you to step up, make sure things here are kept under control.
Okay.
What about you? I'm gonna do what I can.
But I need to go, Leigh, as soon as possible.
I came here to keep my family safe, and I don't think I can do that anymore.
Chief, I get it.
I think they'll be okay with you running point.
They know you.
They trust you.
I trust you.
Thank you.
Don't worry.
We'll get you and your family out of here safely.
We just missed her.
I'm more interested in how you got here in the first place.
Ben.
Yeah.
One of the guards told me that they saw you leaving, um, in a hurry.
We got a call from a friend here in Franklin.
They said they thought they might have seen Devon.
And why didn't you tell us about that? Well, we didn't want to waste anyone's time if it wasn't reliable.
Claire.
I know that you've had your issues with Devon in the past.
But now is not the time for a personal vendetta.
You understand? There's too much at stake.
I understand.
I apologize for the miscommunication.
Hi.
Is Is Charlie home? Uh, yeah.
Y-you know what? Now's not a really good time.
We'll be really quick.
Please, Mrs.
Monohan.
It's It's important.
Yeah, okay.
Come on in.
Charlie, some friends of yours are here.
He left.
What do you mean, he left? Did Charlie tell you they were leaving? Shh.
I'm trying to listen.
I heard him talking on the phone to Andie.
And then he took off with his backpack And his sleeping bag.
What? Mom, what did you expect? You two, I What are you doing here? Charlie is in danger.
Why? What did you do to him? Nothing.
But he will die without my help.
Sarah, please.
No, how dare you come here, after everything that you've done? I had to.
I was wrong to use you like I did.
I just want to make things right.
By telling me my son is gonna die? Sarah, I've risked everything to come back here for you.
I don't want you to know the pain of losing someone you love.
You have to believe I'm here to help.
I'm never gonna believe another word out of your mouth.
Get out.
Get out! Hello? Nick, Charlie's gone.
I think he's with Andie.
All right, calm down, honey.
Uh, you know he was upset.
I'm sure he's just acting out.
I'll finish here, I'll track him down and bring him home.
No, no, no, I need you to go now.
Sarah.
No, listen, Devon was here.
Devon? Devon was in the house? Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay, but she was talking about Charlie, and she said that Charlie's gonna die without her help, and now I'm freaking out.
Okay, okay, just stay I don't know where he is, and I just Stay calm, all right? I'm I'm I'm I'm sure he's fine.
You can't listen to anything Devon says.
Yeah, I know, I know, but he's not here, and I'm freaking out, and so I just need you to go find him and bring him home, okay? Please, just go.
Okay, I will.
Bye.
So, you got all your stuff? I think so.
It was tough leaving without my dad seeing me.
Are you sure about this? Look, I know this is crazy, but I didn't know what else to do.
I'm not letting my parents take me away from you.
Do you think they found out about me? No way.
Whatever's going on, it's got nothing to do with us.
That must be Brett.
He's left me like 10 messages this morning.
Believe me, my mom's left even more.
We'll figure this out later, okay? Leigh.
I need your help with something.
Devon Buckley is back in the Gates.
We need to find her.
Why would she come back here? I don't know what she's up to, but she told Sarah that Charlie is in danger.
This is the number.
Then call me with the coordinates.
Okay? I need to find my son.
Chief.
Hey.
You okay? I'm fine, Marcus.
Okay, what was that about? Mm, nothing.
I'm on it.
Whatever she's making, it doesn't call for vampire blood.
There must be something else.
I need to show this to Peg.
Well, it won't be easy with McAllister watching our every move.
Devon swiped her card to get in, but there's no record of her leaving.
She's here somewhere.
Well, I'm sure she knows of plenty of places to hide.
I think the search will go faster if we all split up.
Yeah.
It'll be best for all of us if we get this done.
Let's go.
Andie still hasn't shown up to any of her classes.
Kelly's home sick today.
She saw Andie and Charlie heading into the woods about an hour ago.
Good.
We can track them.
No one knows the woods like we do.
S-so Andie's not in school? I think she's with Charlie.
You do know they've been seeing each other? No.
No, she didn't say anything to me.
Okay, well, I'm sure they haven't gone far.
Well, I know my daughter.
And she wouldn't just leave.
All right, well, would you mind checking, see if she's taken anything with her? Yeah.
Any idea how many clothes a teenage girl has? There's no way I can tell.
Is there anything in this room that she wouldn't leave without? Oh.
There's a picture of her mother.
And she usually kept it right here.
Oh, no.
What? Andie stopped taking her medicine.
Is she sick? Thomas, what happens to your daughter if she doesn't take her medicine? She could kill your son.
I mean, she knows the danger she's in.
We found this list of ingredients.
Does it mean anything to you? Peg? I don't know the spell, but I know the handwriting.
It's my daughter's.
Chief, I got a lock on Charlie's cellphone.
State reserve, about five miles east.
Follow the logging road past the lake.
All right, I'm on my way.
Send me his coordinates.
Absolutely, and, uh, chief, about that other matter I checked the security tapes.
Devon did show up, trying to exit the main Gates, and you are not the only one looking for her.
There are vampires everywhere.
That's what I was afraid of.
Yeah, the exits are crawling with them.
All right, find her before they do, and get her somewhere safe, okay? Don't worry, I'll bring her back to my place.
Hey.
Bring who back to your place? Something going on? No.
Can you hold down the fort? I just need to run an errand.
Thanks.
Gates P.
D.
Officer Jordan speaking.
Yeah, I'm not sure if you remember me.
I'm the guy that's looking for Isabelle.
Yes, I remember you, but no, my answer is going to be the exact same as it was the last time you called, sir.
There is no Isabelle Aarmont that works here.
- If you just - Okay? There never has been.
If you just let me describe her to you No, I don't need a description.
I need you to stop calling me, okay? I'm sorry I can't help you, but I have to go.
Hey.
Take a break? Sure.
Let's go up there.
Yes.
Yes, I brought these things to her at her motel last night.
I told you to stay away from her.
She needed my help.
Did she tell you what she was doing? She was trying to protect herself.
Mia.
Mia, Vanessa is dead because of Devon.
Do you understand? Now, we need to find her before she can hurt anyone else, and you need to tell us if you have any idea where she is.
Mia.
If she's here in the Gates, then she's probably at her spa.
There's a hidden room in back.
I think I know where the door is.
How much of that did you bring? Just the bottle.
It's all I had.
And you're not gonna be able to get more.
This is really the lamest idea ever.
What was I thinking? You were thinking you can't live without me Which is exactly the way I feel about you.
Look, we both knew this couldn't last forever.
Maybe we just need to make the most of the time we have left.
You're sure you caught her scent? Ah.
I'd know it anywhere.
We should be within a couple of hundred yards.
Charlie! Andie! You know, eventually you're gonna have to let her go.
It's easy for you to say.
You don't know what it's like to love someone who doesn't love you back.
Really? You ever ask yourself why I'm out here with you, wandering around Why I always just come running whenever you decide you need me? Lexie, I didn't know.
Andie.
My God.
I killed him.
I killed Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie's hurt.
He's hurt.
I'm so sorry.
We got to get him to a hospital.
No, no, no.
We have to take him to Peg.
She's the only one who can help.
How is that gonna help? So, Andie's depleted Charlie's life force so much that he's not strong enough to replenish on his own.
So I'm trying to trick the body into thinking that it's more alive than it is, and hopefully produce more.
What? What's wrong, Peg? The effect It should have been immediate.
I'm so sorry.
It's not working.
Call 911.
We got to get him to a hospital.
No, no, no.
No, wait.
That That won't help.
See, they They have no understanding of what's happening here.
And the first thing that they're gonna do is they're gonna shoot him full of adrenaline, and that could kill him.
H-how do you know that? Because that's what they did to me once, after my wife Wait, y-you knew about this? You knew something like this could happen, and you still let your daughter near my son? How could you? I had no idea they were together.
- Get out of my house.
- I'm so sorry! - Go! Get out of my house! - It's all my fault! I'm so sorry! Peg? Is he right about the hospital? Yes.
So what can we do? 'Cause I'm not gonna sit here and watch my son die.
Please, Peg.
There is another way.
Devon can help him.
But it would be through the dark arts, and with dark magic, there is always a price.
I don't care.
I don't know where Devon is.
We've been looking everywhere for Devon.
I know where she is.
I don't think you'll want to come closer.
Fortunately, I don't have to get that close to put an end to you.
Chief Monohan.
Put the gun down, Claire.
This doesn't concern you.
Yes, it does.
I need her alive.
Well, unfortunately, we need her dead.
My son is dying.
She's the only one who can save him.
One on the right.
One on this side and another one behind us.
Any way you can talk them out of this? No, I don't think we can.
It's police business, Ben.
I need you to step aside.
I can't do that, chief.
Ben, it doesn't have to be this way.
I'm afraid it does.
And unfortunately for you, it's not just the witch we're after now.
You've breached our trust.
They're helping me with my boy.
And it's urgent.
It is for us, as well.
I still need to take her, Claire! Do not take your eyes off her.
We'll stay here and clean up this mess.
But, Nick, make no mistake We will come for her.
I know.
Please.
Can you help my son? I'll do everything I can.
Are you sure you want to watch? This is dark magic.
Well, if it has anything to do with what you've been teaching my daughter, I should know.
You have nothing to worry about.
I taught Mia exactly as you taught me.
What I'll be working with is a revival spell.
Injected just after death, it will bring Charlie back.
I promise you.
Charlie's not dead.
No.
But he'll need to be for this to work.
You want to kill my son? In order to save him Yes.
Peg, what's going on here? This is the only way.
There's got to be another way.
Wait.
I want to call a doctor.
I am a doctor.
Wait! Why should we trust you, after everything that you've put us through? I am guilty of some horrible things, and I can't change that.
But I can save Charlie.
All right, we let her try.
It be best if you didn't watch.
I'm not going anywhere.
Charlie? Charlie.
W-what happened? Was it Andie? Yeah.
She wasn't taking the medicine she needed, so she lost control.
Dad, I need to see her.
No, no.
You need to stay down right now.
So, I should stay and monitor Charlie, at least for the next 12 hours.
Okay.
Easy.
Thank you Devon.
Marcus? I need you to close that right now.
Or what, Leigh? You know, I came here looking for answers.
Turns out I wasn't even asking the right questions.
How is this possible? Okay.
There was a guy.
Xavier Martinez.
We were 15 when we met And 22 when I told him I didn't love him anymore.
He couldn't let me go, so He used vodun It's an ancient magic To take away my heart.
Come on, Leigh.
He wanted to make sure I would never love anyone else.
Ancient magic? Marcus, I'm telling you the truth.
What you see in that box is all I have left.
You don't have to believe me.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Does it hurt? Can we fix you? That's, um That's why I moved here.
Peg knew how to help me.
And Marcus, this place is A refuge, of sorts, for a lot of people who are different.
So you're not the only one? No.
Oh.
Okay.
Um Leigh? It's probably not even your real name, is it? No.
It's, um It's Isabelle.
Isabelle.
Isabelle Aarmont? Yeah.
How would you There's a guy who's called the station a few times looking for Isabelle Armont.
I think he knows you're here.
Yes, but, all I ask is that you hear us out.
Yes, we Yes, of course we'll do that.
All ri They will hear a plea of leniency, but only if we deliver Devon.
Do you honestly believe that? We need to make arrangements for Emily.
Aunt Nancy? Hey.
It's me.
I heard you're okay.
I can't tell you how relieved that makes me feel.
Please know that I never meant to hurt you.
And it's because I love you that I can't risk hurting you again.
But as long as you are you, and I am me, we can't be together.
I am drawn to you like gravity, which is why I need to get as far away as I can.
I will never forget you, Charlie Monohan.
And I will love you forever.
Did you get any sleep? No.
Listen, I just want to tell you how grateful I am for what you did For my son.
And for me.
So what happens to you now? I don't know.
I got it.
I'm sorry.
You've had more than enough time.
She saved my son's life, Claire.
There's got to be a way to fix this.
I gave you what you needed.
Dylan.
This can't go down like this.
I'm sorry, Nick.
There's no other choice.
Mom? Dad, there's something wrong with Charlie! Charlie? Charlie? Nick? Nick! What'd you do to my son? I told you I could bring him back.
I never said he'd be the same.
