Locke & Key (2020) s02e05 Episode Script
Past is Prologue

[lively instrumental music playing]
Do you know how much easier it would be
if we could just squeeze
her pretty little neck
until she agreed to make our key?
No!
- We're doing things my way.
- [Eden scoffs]
Okay, now is not the time to go soft.
Look, she keeps her music box
on her dresser.
- [Eden] Mm-hmm.
- Once I get it, she'll do anything I say.
Okay, and what am I supposed to do? Hmm?
What you're best at.
Absolutely nothing.
[dark music playing]
[gentle music playing]
[tool cranking]
Hey, Dunc, it's, uh it's freezing out.
Thought you could use a coffee.
[Duncan] Yeah, thanks.
You can leave it on the table over there.
[tool continues cranking]
[clinks on floor]
Are you, uh
are you taking Gracie apart
or putting her back together?
A little of both.
The transmission's slipping.
I'm trying to avoid a full rebuild.
Working on the valve body,
then I'm gonna put in a new shift kit.
Oh, is that all?
Well, no. Then I have to put in
new fuel lines, new brake line,
and she needs a new starter as well.
I could help out.
No, I'm I'm good. Thank you though.
Sure you don't want to come in for lunch?
You've been going all morning.
I'm sorry, but I'm really just trying
to stay focused on this right now, okay?
Okay, yeah.
- Good luck.
- [Duncan] Uh-huh.
[tool banging]
Duncan still at it?
[Tyler] Yeah. He's
He's in the zone, I guess.
Ah. I had no idea he was so into that car.
You're quiet this morning.
Something on your mind, bud?
Nope.
Hey!
Um, so I'm having dinner
with a friend tonight.
Uh, I'll give you guys some money
for pizza unless Duncan wants to cook.
I wouldn't count on it.
Hey, look what you got.
[inspirational music playing]
[brakes squeal]
Hey, Gabe.
Hey, buddy.
What you got there?
A letter from Rufus.
He lives in Nebraska now.
He's got a bunch of new friends,
and his uncle just fixed up
an old tree house for him.
That's nice.
You wanna play around
with the Hercules Key?
Next time, bud. Is your sister around?
She's in her room. You can go on up.
Thanks.
[dark music playing]
[music continues]
[music intensifies, ends]
What are you doing here?
Hey. I'm sorry.
Bode told me I could just come up.
[faucet turns on]
[faucet turns off]
Which I I see now was a bad idea.
What's wrong?
Last night at Mr. Bennett's party,
I walked in on something
between you and Eden,
like you had some kind of secret.
No, it's not what you think it was.
Tell me what's going on.
All right.
Okay, look. Eden's embarrassed,
and she doesn't want anyone to know,
which is why all the secrecy,
but she asked me to tutor her in trig.
[scoffs] Come on.
What? Kinsey, it's true!
I'm telling you. She's failing.
She might get kicked out of school.
You know, so I agreed to help her.
She's desperate.
So why didn't you tell me?
[sighs] I
Look, she she made me swear not to.
Look.
Kinsey, she's not a bad person.
Seriously, her parents
dumped her at boarding school
so they could go travel and party.
I felt sorry for her. [sighs]
But I I know my loyalty
should have been to you, not with Eden.
I'm sorry. I I should have told you.
It's fine.
[inhales deeply]
It was just confusing.
[knocking on door]
Hey.
Uh, I'm heading out.
Going to Javi's party?
No. School, actually.
On a Saturday?
Uh
Oh, that's, uh No, that's cool. I get it.
You don't have to tell me anything.
It's my uncle.
We put his memories back in his head.
Wow.
But now how he keeps having these,
like, flashes of magic,
but they don't they don't make
any sense to him because he's an adult.
He's all screwed up.
Shit. What are you gonna do?
Duncan made this key when he was a kid
that allows adults to remember magic,
but but our dad hid it
at the academy somewhere.
Uh
Duncan can make keys?
Apparently. [chuckles]
Well, I'll, um I'll come help you search.
Uh, no, it's okay. I can I can manage.
No, it's a big campus.
You'll need the extra eyes.
Uh
All right.
Yeah, actually, that would help.
Thank you.
I'll stay and look after Duncan.
Text me updates.
I will.
- [chuckles]
- Good luck.
Are you sure my dad hid the key
somewhere at the academy?
Yeah, it's where we saw him take it,
in my memory.
What if Tyler can't find it?
[Erin] Tyler's gonna find it.
Maybe you should go find a friend
to hang out with or something.
It'll help you chill out.
Hi, Mom. Bye, Mom.
Bode?
Tyler, I need to borrow the Anywhere Key.
- It's not the time to screw around, Bode.
- I wanna visit Rufus.
You're just gonna go
to Nebraska by yourself?
Please, just for a few hours.
Come on. I'll be fine.
[sighs]
All right, just be careful.
Don't freak anyone out.
Actually, while we're trading keys,
give me the, um
give me the Hercules Key.
Deal.
Thanks. Bye!
We could have used the Anywhere Key
for our search around the academy.
[Tyler] It's fine. I
I got a guy on the inside. Just have to
get there the old-fashioned way.
[adventurous music playing]
[sighs]
[music continues]
[key clicks and cranks]
- [door creaks]
- [dog barking]
Whoa.
[birds chirping]
- Rufus!
- Bode!
[exhales sharply]
- I can't believe you're really here.
- I finally got the Anywhere Key back.
You got the photo?
Yeah. By the way, I love your room.
- Thank you, soldier.
- Roger that.
Here, I brought you something.
What?
That's amazing.
And also kinda gross.
Where did you get this?
We have a lot
of catching up to do. [chuckles]
[chuckles]
[brakes squeaking]
Hey, you know, I was just thinking about
how crazy it is that Duncan can make keys.
I figured if anyone in your family
could do it back in the day,
it would be your dad.
[Tyler sighs] Erin said that he tried,
but Duncan was the only one
who could do it.
Yeah, but [laughs]
But But why? What makes him so special?
Erin thought maybe
it was because he was so innocent.
We don't really know.
- [Logan] Evenin', fellas.
- [Tyler] Hey, Logan.
This is your guy on the inside?
Yeah, you think the Lockes
are the only ones with magical keys?
- Behold.
- [key jingles]
[chuckles] What is that?
Freshman year, I talked Bernadette
into giving me a copy of the master key
so I can get around campus easier.
Don't question it, baby.
Just reap the benefits, all right?
Okay, so where do we start?
[sighs] In the memory,
I saw the trophy case.
[adventurous music playing]
[rattling]
[Logan] Well, shit,
I don't have a key for that.
[creaks, snaps]
Oh, it's broken.
I guess security
is pretty lax around here.
Well, your dad was quite the athlete.
Did he run in college too?
No, not after what happened
with his friends.
[Logan] Man, that's just tragic.
Hearing any whispering?
No, I don't think it's in here.
[sighs] Okay, where to next?
Your dad did theater, right?
[Logan] Let's check it out.
- [Duncan] Oh, hey.
- [Kinsey] You're finally taking a break.
Yeah, just getting some water.
You want something to eat?
- [turns on faucet]
- No, I'm fine.
[turns off faucet]
Mom left us money for pizza.
- [gulping]
- [Kinsey] Or I can fix you something.
I said I'm good.
[breathes deeply]
I'm good, okay?
Okay.
[glass clinks in sink]
[door opens, closes]
[phone chimes]
Hey.
Anything from Tyler?
Not yet.
[phone chimes]
Everything okay?
There's just this party.
Well, it's not even about the party.
There's someone at the party
that I said something shitty to.
I wanna apologize,
but now I've gotta look after Duncan, so
No, go! I'll keep an eye on him.
- You sure?
- [Erin] Yeah.
You don't wanna be left
regretting all the things you didn't say.
Trust me.
Okay. Thanks. I won't be long.
[sizzling]
It smells amazing.
Can I do anything?
Nope, everything is under control.
[laughs]
[boiling]
[laughs]
- [Josh] Mmm, mmm.
- Yeah, I see that.
- Hmm.
- [laughs]
Did you know
that, uh, arrabbiata is Italian for angry?
You You do look very angry
in your apron with the frills.
Hey, this came with the place.
Miss Garcia, the biology teacher,
she lived here last year.
Ah-ha. Okay, sure.
Yeah, blame it on Miss Garcia.
Okay, I admit I did put it on
of my own volition.
[Nina laughs]
So where's Jamie tonight?
She is living her best life.
Go-karts and ice cream, arcade games.
- [sizzling]
- My mother is Ooh.
oddly good at arcade games,
which is why I don't play arcade games.
Fair enough.
But I can cook,
which you'll soon find out.
I can't wait.
- The thing about cooking is it requires
- [spatula clatters]
attention.
And you're very distracting.
You wanna, uh,
try this?
Mmm.
Oh!
That's good.
Does it need anything?
Nothing.
[knocking on door]
[laughs]
Excuse me.
[indistinct chatter]
Sorry to bother you, Mr. Bennett.
I wanted to return your Gettysburg book.
- [Josh] Okay, thanks, Kenna.
- You were right.
The chapter on Pickett's Charge
was incredible. [chuckles]
- I can't believe how detailed
- [Josh] It was great.
I'm glad you liked it.
I'll see you Monday.

Find something?

Who's that?
It's my dad and all his friends.
[Logan] Oh, and Mr. Ridgeway!
Gotta say, he was kind of a stud.
They look so normal, happy.
Yeah, they were.
They Yeah, they look like they were.
[Tyler] "We are such stuff
as dreams are made on."
Yo, I know that quote.
[chuckles]
[mysterious music plays]
I know where that quote is.
- Huh. I've never noticed that before.
- That's why I'm the guy on the inside.
Huh.
"Donated by the Locke family
in loving memory of Kim Toffer,
Jeff Ellis, and Lucas Caravaggio."
My family donated this?
That's dope.
[indistinct whisperings]
I can hear it.
[whisperings continue]
It's coming from under the bench.
You've never heard it before
when you walked by?
I think the keys only whisper
when we need them the most.
How are we gonna get underneath?
It's solid cement.
This ought to do the trick.

Oh shit, man! That works!

- Yeah, I'll get it.

The Memory Key.
[rumbling]
[bench thuds on ground]
[exhales sharply]
[sighs]
Yeah, that's amazing. We should go back
to Keyhouse and try it out.
We should probably do this on our own.
Duncan's kind of in a fragile place.
- Uh, yeah, I mean
- Yeah, totally get it, man. Good luck.
- Thank you, guys, both of you.
- [Logan] Yeah.
- [Tyler] Appreciate it.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um
Hey, look.
You know, I was just thinking it might
be good to have somebody else there.
I mean, you don't know
what's gonna happen.
Kinsey'll be there.
She'll text, let you know how it goes.
- [Gabe] Are you
- Thanks again!
[Gabe] Yeah.

Probably for the best.
Would've made a fool of myself there, so
That's not true. It's their loss.
Gabe here?
No. But you were right
about him and Eden, sorta.
I straight-up asked him what's up,
and he's been tutoring her on the sly.
And that's what he told you, huh?
You don't believe him?
It doesn't matter what I believe.
I'm gonna go grab some food.
Do you want anything?
I'm good.
I'll catch you later.

[groovy music playing]
Hey, Kinsey.
Hey, I didn't realize
this was your birthday party.
[Jackie] Yeah, you and me both.
Javi will use any excuse to throw a rager.
It's all making sense now.
Yeah, last year, he celebrated Flag Day
with a red, white, and blue foam party.
[crowd cheering]
What's going on in there?
I don't know.

- [all] Oh!
- Eden's in rare form.
- What's going on with her?
[Jackie] I don't know.
She's been super weird lately.
We don't really talk much anymore.
Honestly, it was always kind of
a one-sided friendship.
Well, well, look who's here!
Kinsey Locke. Where's Gabe?
He's out with Tyler.
Oh. Well, I am so glad that you're here.
[pop music playing]
Hey, don't you think you've had enough?
Piss off, Jackie.
Hey, she's just looking out for you.
I'm not dealing with this tonight.
See you later.
What a killjoy!
At her own party!
This is great.
You and I can hang out
and spend some quality time together.
Gabe said you guys have been hanging out.
Yeah, tutoring.
I've never been good at the whole
"no hablo español" thing, so, yeah.
[chuckling]
He said he was tutoring you in trig.
Yeah, that too.
I suck at both. [chuckles]
Whatever. Do you wanna go and find
somewhere quieter for us to hang?
Yeah. I'm trying to find a bathroom.
I'll be right back.
[ominous music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[Kinsey] Scot?
- [Scot] What's up?
- I need your help.
Look, I know things are weird
with us right now,
but I have to find out
if what Gabe told me is true.
How am I supposed to help with that?
I wanna have a chat with Eden.
I think she's lying.
Can you just stand outside the door
and make sure no one comes in?
[sighs]
Please.
I think something weird is going on.
Okay.
Sure, let's do it.
[sighs] Thanks.
[gentle music playing]
[switch clicks]
Hey, Jamie's been teaching me
how to play chess,
and I've been teaching her
how to duel with a lightsaber.
And she knows about the keys?
[sighs] We can trust her. She's one of us.
She sounds cool.
Maybe next time you could bring her.
Yeah, she'd love this place.
It's even cooler in person.
I like to come here and draw.
I'll show you what I'm working on.
Sure.
It's called Squadron Strange.
Wow, this is really, really cool.
[Rufus] The Squadron hunts down
evil, supernatural forces
in order to protect humanity.
They're led by Sergeant E.
She's a badass fighter
who takes no prisoners
and makes the best
grilled cheese sandwich in the world.
[Bode] Hey, that's your mom!
She looks very brave.
She's the bravest person I know.
She's out there somewhere.
I know it.
I'm going to see her again.
I believe that too.
Hey, uh, what's this?
I've been talking to a therapist.
He's helping me work out what happened
the night my mom disappeared.
[dramatic music playing]
I remember there were two Dodges
standing in the living room.
And then I passed out.
I don't remember what happened after.
Two Dodges?
I don't know what it means.
[sighs] Tell me everything
that you remember.
- Cold spaghetti on the couch.
- [Nina] Mmm!
It's the stuff that
Harlequin romance novels are made of.
They really ought to be.
Maybe next time
I'll make dinner at my house.
- Oh, the famous Keyhouse.
- Mmm.
I didn't think I would get an invite
after you saw my creepy dollhouse.
It was iffy.
Oh, I almost forgot.
I brought you a gift.
[rustling]
I found it in the Winter Study.
It's a ledger from the 1700s
that one of the Lockes kept for the house.
Oh.
Did you know Keyhouse
was an intelligence base
during the Revolutionary War?
I knew that the house had
historical significance,
but I never realized
the Lockes were so wrapped up in the war.
This documents the daily activities
in and around the house.
The comings and goings,
how much artillery
the Revolutionaries had left,
soldiers lost.
This is amazing.
[chuckles] Would you like
some time alone with it?
- Yes. Thank you.
- [laughs]
[Josh chuckles]
I'd rather have some time alone with you.
You sure?
You seem to really like that ledger.
[kissing]

and hang out in here.

your Fear Monster lately? [inhales deeply]

Sorry, but don't worry.
It won't happen again.
[inhales] You know, Gabe's always trying
to keep you all to himself.
- Really? I don't think he does that.
- [Eden] Mmm.
I'm done listening to him.
It's my time now.
[suspenseful music playing]
I love your necklace.

idea to be going in there right now.
Kinsey's babysitting Eden.
Eden's off her trolley! [laughs]
So why don't I just slip in
and get it for you?
[smacks lips] Thanks.

Just watch.
When we opened the Black Door,
and those things
shot out from the other side,
one of them hit Eden.
- Well, that means all summer, she's
- She's a demon.
Look at this place. It's like a cancer
spreading inside her head.
Yeah, but I mean, are we
are we quite sure that
Eden's brain wasn't
a wasteland before? [sighs]
Look, we need to get out of here.
Let's look through a few more.
Maybe we can figure out what she wants.
Hurry, because we are in a demon's head
without her knowledge or permission.

Kinsey, what's wrong?
I went into Eden's head.
What? Why?
I thought something was wrong,
but it's worse. So much worse.
What do you mean?
Gabe is Dodge,
and Eden's a demon.
- That's not possible.
- I saw it in Eden's memories.
- We threw Dodge into the Black Door.
- It wasn't Dodge!
Well, then who was it?
[ominous music playing]
[doorbell rings]
[music intensifies, ends]
Hey, Kinsey.
[lively instrumental music playing]
[lively instrumental music playing]
Do you know how much easier it would be
if we could just squeeze
her pretty little neck
until she agreed to make our key?
No!
- We're doing things my way.
- [Eden scoffs]
Okay, now is not the time to go soft.
Look, she keeps her music box
on her dresser.
- [Eden] Mm-hmm.
- Once I get it, she'll do anything I say.
Okay, and what am I supposed to do? Hmm?
What you're best at.
Absolutely nothing.

Hey, Dunc, it's, uh it's freezing out.
Thought you could use a coffee.
[Duncan] Yeah, thanks.
You can leave it on the table over there.
[tool continues cranking]
[clinks on floor]
Are you, uh
are you taking Gracie apart
or putting her back together?
A little of both.
The transmission's slipping.
I'm trying to avoid a full rebuild.
Working on the valve body,
then I'm gonna put in a new shift kit.
Oh, is that all?
Well, no. Then I have to put in
new fuel lines, new brake line,
and she needs a new starter as well.
I could help out.
No, I'm I'm good. Thank you though.
Sure you don't want to come in for lunch?
You've been going all morning.
I'm sorry, but I'm really just trying
to stay focused on this right now, okay?
Okay, yeah.
- Good luck.
- [Duncan] Uh-huh.
[tool banging]
Duncan still at it?
[Tyler] Yeah. He's
He's in the zone, I guess.
Ah. I had no idea he was so into that car.
You're quiet this morning.
Something on your mind, bud?
Nope.
Hey!
Um, so I'm having dinner
with a friend tonight.
Uh, I'll give you guys some money
for pizza unless Duncan wants to cook.
I wouldn't count on it.
Hey, look what you got.
[inspirational music playing]
[brakes squeal]
Hey, Gabe.
Hey, buddy.
What you got there?
A letter from Rufus.
He lives in Nebraska now.
He's got a bunch of new friends,
and his uncle just fixed up
an old tree house for him.
That's nice.
You wanna play around
with the Hercules Key?
Next time, bud. Is your sister around?
She's in her room. You can go on up.
Thanks.
[dark music playing]
[music continues]
[music intensifies, ends]
What are you doing here?
Hey. I'm sorry.
Bode told me I could just come up.
[faucet turns on]
[faucet turns off]
Which I I see now was a bad idea.
What's wrong?
Last night at Mr. Bennett's party,
I walked in on something
between you and Eden,
like you had some kind of secret.
No, it's not what you think it was.
Tell me what's going on.
All right.
Okay, look. Eden's embarrassed,
and she doesn't want anyone to know,
which is why all the secrecy,
but she asked me to tutor her in trig.
[scoffs] Come on.
What? Kinsey, it's true!
I'm telling you. She's failing.
She might get kicked out of school.
You know, so I agreed to help her.
She's desperate.
So why didn't you tell me?
[sighs] I
Look, she she made me swear not to.
Look.
Kinsey, she's not a bad person.
Seriously, her parents
dumped her at boarding school
so they could go travel and party.
I felt sorry for her. [sighs]
But I I know my loyalty
should have been to you, not with Eden.
I'm sorry. I I should have told you.
It's fine.
[inhales deeply]
It was just confusing.
[knocking on door]
Hey.
Uh, I'm heading out.
Going to Javi's party?
No. School, actually.
On a Saturday?
Uh
Oh, that's, uh No, that's cool. I get it.
You don't have to tell me anything.
It's my uncle.
We put his memories back in his head.
Wow.
But now how he keeps having these,
like, flashes of magic,
but they don't they don't make
any sense to him because he's an adult.
He's all screwed up.
Shit. What are you gonna do?
Duncan made this key when he was a kid
that allows adults to remember magic,
but but our dad hid it
at the academy somewhere.
Uh
Duncan can make keys?
Apparently. [chuckles]
Well, I'll, um I'll come help you search.
Uh, no, it's okay. I can I can manage.
No, it's a big campus.
You'll need the extra eyes.
Uh
All right.
Yeah, actually, that would help.
Thank you.
I'll stay and look after Duncan.
Text me updates.
I will.
- [chuckles]
- Good luck.
Are you sure my dad hid the key
somewhere at the academy?
Yeah, it's where we saw him take it,
in my memory.
What if Tyler can't find it?
[Erin] Tyler's gonna find it.
Maybe you should go find a friend
to hang out with or something.
It'll help you chill out.
Hi, Mom. Bye, Mom.
Bode?
Tyler, I need to borrow the Anywhere Key.
- It's not the time to screw around, Bode.
- I wanna visit Rufus.
You're just gonna go
to Nebraska by yourself?
Please, just for a few hours.
Come on. I'll be fine.
[sighs]
All right, just be careful.
Don't freak anyone out.
Actually, while we're trading keys,
give me the, um
give me the Hercules Key.
Deal.
Thanks. Bye!
We could have used the Anywhere Key
for our search around the academy.
[Tyler] It's fine. I
I got a guy on the inside. Just have to
get there the old-fashioned way.

- [door creaks]

- Rufus!
- Bode!
[exhales sharply]
- I can't believe you're really here.
- I finally got the Anywhere Key back.
You got the photo?
Yeah. By the way, I love your room.
- Thank you, soldier.
- Roger that.
Here, I brought you something.
What?
That's amazing.
And also kinda gross.
Where did you get this?
We have a lot
of catching up to do. [chuckles]
[chuckles]
[brakes squeaking]
Hey, you know, I was just thinking about
how crazy it is that Duncan can make keys.
I figured if anyone in your family
could do it back in the day,
it would be your dad.
[Tyler sighs] Erin said that he tried,
but Duncan was the only one
who could do it.
Yeah, but [laughs]
But But why? What makes him so special?
Erin thought maybe
it was because he was so innocent.
We don't really know.
- [Logan] Evenin', fellas.
- [Tyler] Hey, Logan.
This is your guy on the inside?
Yeah, you think the Lockes
are the only ones with magical keys?
- Behold.
- [key jingles]
[chuckles] What is that?
Freshman year, I talked Bernadette
into giving me a copy of the master key
so I can get around campus easier.
Don't question it, baby.
Just reap the benefits, all right?
Okay, so where do we start?
[sighs] In the memory,
I saw the trophy case.
[adventurous music playing]
[rattling]
[Logan] Well, shit,
I don't have a key for that.
[creaks, snaps]
Oh, it's broken.
I guess security
is pretty lax around here.
Well, your dad was quite the athlete.
Did he run in college too?
No, not after what happened
with his friends.
[Logan] Man, that's just tragic.
Hearing any whispering?
No, I don't think it's in here.
[sighs] Okay, where to next?
Your dad did theater, right?
[Logan] Let's check it out.
- [Duncan] Oh, hey.
- [Kinsey] You're finally taking a break.
Yeah, just getting some water.
You want something to eat?
- [turns on faucet]
- No, I'm fine.
[turns off faucet]
Mom left us money for pizza.
- [gulping]
- [Kinsey] Or I can fix you something.
I said I'm good.

I'm good, okay?
Okay.

[door opens, closes]

Hey.
Anything from Tyler?
Not yet.
[phone chimes]
Everything okay?
There's just this party.
Well, it's not even about the party.
There's someone at the party
that I said something shitty to.
I wanna apologize,
but now I've gotta look after Duncan, so
No, go! I'll keep an eye on him.
- You sure?
- [Erin] Yeah.
You don't wanna be left
regretting all the things you didn't say.
Trust me.
Okay. Thanks. I won't be long.
[sizzling]
It smells amazing.
Can I do anything?
Nope, everything is under control.

You You do look very angry
in your apron with the frills.
Hey, this came with the place.
Miss Garcia, the biology teacher,
she lived here last year.
Ah-ha. Okay, sure.
Yeah, blame it on Miss Garcia.
Okay, I admit I did put it on
of my own volition.
[Nina laughs]
So where's Jamie tonight?
She is living her best life.
Go-karts and ice cream, arcade games.
- [sizzling]
- My mother is Ooh.
oddly good at arcade games,
which is why I don't play arcade games.
Fair enough.
But I can cook,
which you'll soon find out.
I can't wait.
- The thing about cooking is it requires
- [spatula clatters]
attention.
And you're very distracting.
You wanna, uh,
try this?
Mmm.
Oh!
That's good.
Does it need anything?
Nothing.

Excuse me.

Sorry to bother you, Mr. Bennett.
I wanted to return your Gettysburg book.

Do you know where you are?
I'm home.

- [Duncan groans]
[laughs]
[chuckles]
[Duncan] Oh my God. Oh.
- [sighs]
- [Kinsey] Duncan?
Did it work?
Yeah.
[chuckles] I just got so much
just rushing through my head right now.
[breathes deeply]
Where's Gabe?
Uh, I I left him at school. Why?
[inhales deeply]
Kinsey, what's wrong?
I went into Eden's head.
What? Why?
I thought something was wrong,
but it's worse. So much worse.
What do you mean?
Gabe is Dodge,
and Eden's a demon.
- That's not possible.
- I saw it in Eden's memories.
- We threw Dodge into the Black Door.
- It wasn't Dodge!
Well, then who was it?
[ominous music playing]
[doorbell rings]
[music intensifies, ends]
Hey, Kinsey.
