Van Helsing (2016) s02e06 Episode Script

1 Previously on Van Helsing (ATTACKING) - I ain't gonna make it there.
- Yes you will.
We both will.
If we don't find Vanessa soon, I'm done.
I need a legion.
That legion will be you now.
They're not even dreams anymore.
They're visions.
The red door.
I see them, too.
- Hey.
- What is this? I had a dream and I saw it so I drew a picture of it.
I know where this is.
(MUMBLED SINGING) big rock candy mountain, Big rock candy mountain (MUMBLED SINGING) Hey, doll.
.
Susan.
What is this? Everything's ok.
I'm here.
No.
You're gone.
You were so close, and you didn't even know it.
(DOORS OPEN) You woke me up.
Now I wanna do the same for you.
What? The truth.
It's right here waiting for you.
Always has been.
Look.
I've seen this in my dreams.
What does it mean? Only only you can answer that.
Go through.
See what's on the other side.
Am I dreaming? The key to who you are (GROWL) - Who I am - (SNARL) Is inside there.
(SCREECH) Don't you wanna know? Open it.
See for yourself.
(GASPING) Are you ok? I was there.
With Susan, and Here, where we bedded down.
Wait, did you say Susan? That must have been one hell of a dream.
What else did you dream of? Hmm? I know where I have to go.
Wait.
Vanessa! Here we go again.
(FOOTSTEPS) But why? I don't understand.
What bunker? This place we held up in.
An underground lab.
I thought it was safe but safe doesn't exist anymore.
So why go back there? Because Susan showed it to me.
Who I thought was Susan.
The dream.
You saw the red door again.
I have to find out what's behind it.
I didn't find it the first time we were down there, it must be in some area I never explored before.
I've never seen that red door before I started having the visions.
Before I was I never dreamed, so But what about Susan, or the creature? Do you see any of that? No.
No, just the door.
But I gotta tell ya, even though it doesn't make any sense to me, it uh it sure feels good to dream again.
You gave that back to me.
Alright, well if we re gonna figure this out we need to get moving.
I just gotta get some water.
I wouldn't drink that water.
(FLIES BUZZING) No telling how long that corpse has been rotting in it.
(BUZZING) Yeah, right.
What is it? A feeling.
Like a ghost walking over a grave.
(CRUNCH) Susan.
Vanessa.
Vanessa, wait.
It's you! Doc.
Thank god we found you! It's a miracle- Who's this? I'm Julius.
Jesus.
But I-I thought you were Yeah.
Ain't that somethin'.
You said, "Thank god we found you".
Who's we? Axel.
Hey, Sleeping Beauty.
She told me you were dead.
Death would have been easier than this.
Back at Eden you never said anything.
I- No-I didn't know about this.
How did you find him? You think she wanted to? You can fix him.
I don't know.
I don't know.
- What? - I don't know.
Hey, Vanessa, just turn him back like you turned me Hey, back off! There's something you don't know.
- I'm sorry.
- Don't For Dylan.
Julius told me.
I don't need your sympathy.
Especially not yours, Doc.
Axel wouldn't even be a vampire- Axel wouldn't have survived this long if it weren't for me.
What does that make you, a hero? What happened to the others? Mohamad, Susan? Sam? Do you actually care? Listen, I messed up.
Ok? I own that.
- Good for you.
- No.
No, I need you to hear me on this, Vanessa.
I don't want anything from you.
Your forgiveness, your pity.
You can go on hating me if that's what you wanna do and you have every right to, but Axel? I can't change what I did to him, but you can.
I'm begging you, Vanessa.
You know, you have no idea what it's like to watch someone you love die in your arms because of something you did.
He ll die if you don't.
He won't even feed off of my blood.
Wow.
I wish we had never found each other.
I don't blame you.
(GROANS) Axel, don't.
- Bite me.
- No.
- Bite me or I ll bite you.
- No.
- Either way.
- No.
- I can't live like this.
- No.
Cure me or kill me.
Don't.
Don't make me hurt you.
Look, I get it.
The choice that you're making.
Ok, I-I need you to stay here.
What about the red door? The bunker? Yeah, whatever's down there I need to face it alone.
You need my help and you know it Look, there's a military base nearby, ok? Doc will show you the way.
I need you to get fuel and a vehicle.
She's not gonna just leave him there.
Well, then help her out, ok? Do what you gotta do.
(SNARLING) (GROANS) This was all I could find.
Julius may have been willing to feed upon the sick and the crippled.
Not me.
I will find better.
No.
(GROANING) You will do better.
(SQUISH) I've seen things.
Memories, like this red door in my dreams.
Dreams? Dreams are for humans.
You no longer have dreams.
(GROANS) Do not speak as if you know anything.
You have not seen what I have seen.
You have not suffered the pain I have.
You have not cowered in fear in the presence of them.
(CRIES OUT) The woman, Van Helsing, has changed our destiny.
Our world now hangs in her balance.
All that we have planned, our dominance, is upended by her.
But she is still only one.
- We are - It is not her that I fear.
It is what she has awakened.
An Elder.
We must find him before she does and use it against her.
Travel now.
Find the sisterhood and seek an allegiance with them.
You-you banished her and her kind.
They are your sworn enemy.
Between life, death, and revenge, which would you pick? Now, go.
And do my bidding.
And do not fail.
(GROWLS) (PANTING) Is it working? No.
It's something about our blood.
It seems to change once Vanessa turns us.
Change how? Well, Axel says it tasted like terrible.
It's not bringing him back.
It's not sustaining him.
God, if if I could just have my microscope I could see what's going on.
Here, put some pressure on that.
(GROANS) Axel? Axel? Oh, god.
No, no! Axel! Please, no.
- Axel, wake up! - (GURGLES) Ok.
(SPITS) Ugh.
Where's Vanessa? She went to some place called "The Farm"? Said that there was something that she needed to find.
- Hey, where are you going? - After her.
But she's not gonna help you.
Yeah, we'll see.
You're not going anywhere.
Really? Again? Alright, go ahead.
- Axel, wait - There's nothing you can do.
So anyway, I used to box back in the day, pretty good, too.
So I thought I'd make these babies.
Wrapped metal around 'em We gotta go after Axel.
Look, you said it yourself.
Without Vanessa he doesn't have a chance.
Well, without fuel and a vehicle, neither do we.
That's a stupid plan.
Well, I didn't hear you come up with a better plan.
You re going back to the military base to find fuel - I'm not sure is actually there - It's worth a shot.
In a place that was swarming with ferals the last time We'll get some diesel and this, uh, ambulance you call Wanda, come back, get Vanessa, and we just keep on going.
There's no guarantee we will ever find her again, and then what're we gonna do? Are you always this optimistic? I'm a cloud with no silver lining.
Deal with it.
(EXHALES) Well isn't that ironic? (CHUCKLES) Now, this right here? This right here is a good omen.
Come on over here.
You gotta feel this.
Come on over here.
Stand right here.
Stand right here.
Right there.
(SIGHS) Feels good, doesn't it? Walk in the light again.
(SIGHS) If you break out into "Here Comes the Sun" I'm gonna leave your ass behind.
We re here.
- See? We make a good team.
- Yeah.
A regular Jay-Z and Beyoncé.
(CLANGING) You ok? - What the? - Doc.
- What? - Don't move.
Oh shit.
Ok.
What is this? It's it's some kind of home-made explosive.
Gorman, that stupid son of a bitch.
Julius, listen to me.
If I move and that pin pops out, we're goners.
So don't move.
Here's what I need you to do.
Wha-what? I need you to cut the wire.
- The wire.
Cut the wire.
- Yeah.
I don't know if I have anything to cut the wire with.
I don't-I don't have anything to cut the wire.
Figure it out.
Just do something! Ok.
(GROWLING IN THE DISTANCE) - No, no, no, no, no, not now.
- Ok, ok, ok, ok! - (SCREECHING IN THE DISTANCE) - Oh, shit! - Ok, ok, ok, wait! - (SCREAMS) Dammit! Just wait a second.
We don't have a second! Ok, ok.
Don't move.
I got an idea.
- Cut the damn wire.
- It's ok, wait.
Julius, they're getting closer.
I just gotta wrap this so the pin stays in.
- Shit, they re coming closer! - Don't move, don't move! - Don't move! - I need to get my gun, Julius! Don't move! Just wait a second, I almost got it! - (GROWLING) - Shit, come on! - (SCREAMS) - Dammit! - (CLICK) - They're coming! They re coming! (EXPLOSION) (GROWLING) Who the hell are you? I was just gonna ask you the same thing.
How'd you get in here? I followed you.
Been on your trail for a while now.
Well, you found me.
- Now what? - I have heard a lot about you.
Your skills.
You've left a lot of dead vampires behind.
Is that a problem? No.
The fewer, the better.
I've killed quite a few vampires myself.
Good for you.
Look, I got things I need to do.
Yeah, what the hell is this place? I mean, this is military.
Why are you even down here? Why do you wanna know? Come on.
I just travelled so far to find you.
Please, just tell me one thing.
Can you really turn vampires into humans with a bite? Well, that answers that.
No wonder Dmitri wanted you so bad.
- Vanessa, run! - (GROANS) No! (GROANS) Back off! - He's not a threat.
- I don't care who he is to you.
He's another blood sucker to me.
- I owe him.
- (GROANS) He kept me alive.
Well, consider me confused.
You either kill them or cure them.
- But if you won't do either - (CLATTER) (CLANG) (GUN SHOT) (GROANS) (CRUMBLING) Not bad.
Well, a little predictable.
(ATTACKING) (FIGHTING GRUNTS) There's only one thing that heals like that.
(GRUNTS) (PANTING) (CHUCKLES) Well, now what? (PANTING) I'm Scarlett Harker.
You must be the legendary Vanessa, huh? What are you doing here? (GROANING) She's looking for the red door.
Red door? It's here? You've seen it, too? Yeah.
Except it's not red.
Come on.
I ll show you.
Axel! (GROANING) - Vanessa - I'm still not gonna bite you.
Then maybe you should just let her kill me.
There's gotta be another way.
What're you doing back in this joint? We barely made it outta here the first time.
You read my file.
The one you decided to lie about and hide from me? - (GRUNTS) - Why did you do that? I needed to know who you really were.
Just rest.
Then get outta here.
No, I'm coming with you.
No, the radiation.
You're too weak.
(GROANS) Yeah, the door don't open it.
Maybe there are answers in there for both of us.
It's not what you think.
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING) - (SNAP) - (HISSING) (HISSING) You are forbidden.
Our kind and yours, 200 years of blood feud.
That could end now.
(HISSING) Deception! Truth.
Why does Julius dare to send some rat? Julius is gone.
I serve Dmitri.
A misguided and fatal change in loyalties.
Did you come here to die? To talk.
- With Maya.
- Assassin! Messenger.
Nothing more.
Maya shall decide your fate.
For your sake, beg for a quick death.
Bind him! Bring him! There's an easy way to end his pain.
Like I said, not gonna happen.
I don't get it.
If you can turn them then why not him? Oooh, radiation? How much are we talking about? Didn't affect me.
But in time all my friends got sick.
Are you sure you wanna risk that? If it stops these crazy dreams, yes.
Let's go.
(DOOR OPENS) (BANG) There.
Now we won't get trapped inside.
This is it.
What you saw, too? It's key coded.
We could blow it open.
It looks too thick.
My file.
It had a number on the top.
(BEEP) Badge name.
Van Helsing.
Try it.
(DOOR OPENS) Holy shit.
Where did you learn to fight like that? My parents.
They were unique.
You know, somehow they knew that this vampire apocalypse was coming.
- How? - Never said.
They just said it was for my own protection.
I mean, they trained me every possible way that they could.
Hunting, killing, traps, combat, weapons.
All of it.
Look, everybody thought we were crazy, you know? They called us The Doomsdays.
Mmm.
But then it happened and so karma's a real bitch.
What about your parents? My dad staged our deaths when I was 15 years old.
House fire.
- Said it was safer that way.
- From what? - The rising hadn't happened.
- Hadn't it? I was almost killed by one.
I never understood why it came looking for us.
Didn't your dad know something? I don't know.
I mean, he never trusted anybody.
Including me, I guess.
And then he killed himself.
I think he was guilt-ridden.
Wondering if he'd gotten it all wrong.
Anyway, what about you? Orphan.
Mom died giving birth to me.
Or at least that's what I was told.
(DOOR OPENS) What the hell were they doing in this place? What is that? Were they breeding vampires? Why would the military do that? It doesn't even look human, it's more like it's like a hybrid.
We have to get out of here.
I don't want answers like these.
- No, no, no! - You don't understand.
What they were doing here was evil.
Just horrific.
It's just like what Dmitri was doing at the Citadel.
What they wanted to do to me.
Do you do you think that you're from here? No.
I mean, I couldn't be, right? There's only one way to find out.
We gotta keep going.
Hey, listen to me.
We both had visions, right? We were both drawn here.
So we're gonna figure this out, whatever it is, together.
Ok.
(SPITTING) (GROANS) Hey, do you wanna come and take a look at this? - It doesn't feel right.
- Yeah, sure.
You know, I never did ask you.
Before the rising, what did you do? I was a doctor.
A pathologist.
You know, dead bodies.
Oh.
Yeah, well that makes sense.
The hell is that supposed to mean? Well, it's-you're not really that comfortable with the living.
You know, like, talking and being friendly.
It could be infected.
Oh.
Wouldn't that be ironic if you died of blood poisoning? Heh.
What're you doing? - It's antibiotics.
- Yeah, you know what? I'm actually good.
Wait a minute.
- You're not - I just always hated those things.
(LAUGHS) First the I.
V.
and now this tiny little - (CHUCKLES) - Look, it's-it's not that funny.
(LAUGHING) No, no, it's not.
It's not funny.
It's not funny.
(LAUGHING) It isn't.
I mean, it's either that or we're gonna have to amputate eventually, so Come on.
I was just, you know, a pretty sickly kid growing up.
Doctors used to stick me with needles all the time.
I was like a human pin cushion.
(WINCING) Come on, hurry up.
Get it over with.
It's it's done.
Oh.
(CHUCKLES) It still has power.
Why are some parts intact and other parts are totally taken apart? Is that working? Looks that way.
Try the code from the door.
(BEEPING) Well, what's this for? (BEEP) - What did you just do? - (BEEPING) I've been here before.
When I was a little girl.
I was here.
I remember.
Well, you just started the computer with your thumb print and you accessed that door with your name.
You know what Dmitri told me? He said that when my mother discovered what I was she ran.
Maybe I am from that nursery.
Your abilities aren't natural.
- Maybe you were created.
- Yeah.
Like some lab rat.
- No, but - Some goddamn experiment.
Vanessa.
Where are you going? Wait a minute.
I know this place.
(BOUNCING) I thought we were on the same page.
Abbey Please Don't touch me, I will break your arm, I swear to god.
Easy.
You don't recognize the opportunity here.
A child isn't a specimen.
Something you can study and take samples from.
I won't allow it.
- Mommy? - I'm coming, sweetheart.
- We're done here.
- That's not up to you.
Don't threaten me.
You know what I'm capable of.
Yes.
Van Helsings.
The whole family tree.
I've I've seen that mural before.
I need you to remember a little secret, alright? Just between us.
The key.
You remember I told you about the key? Well, I hid it.
Up there, in the mural, behind the mountain.
You see it? Whoopsie.
It's the key to everything, ok? So it's safer here than if we bring it with us.
Alright? You mustn't ever tell.
Nobody can have it but a Van Helsing, ok? If a day ever comes - Oh - What's wrong, Mama? (SOBS) We didn't plan things turning out like this but I'm gonna protect you, whatever that takes, and whatever I have to do.
I need you to understand.
Hey, I love you.
With all my heart.
Vanessa and Scarlett.
You'll always be my little girls.
No.
No.
I have parents.
Charles and Ella Harker.
Those are my parents.
I'm not-we're not sisters.
- Van Helsings.
- No, it's a goddamn lie.
I remember it, too.
- No.
- (DOOR OPENS) This is where we began.
No, no, it's not.
It's not.
It's probably the radiation, you know? The-the visions are just hallucinations.
The mural, the key.
- You've seen it before, haven't you? - I don't The creature? He lead us here.
He wanted us to understand who we are.
I know where she hid it.
And so do you.
It's there.
Behind the The mountain.
(BANGING) (CRUMBLING) It's real.
It's actually real.
We were drawn here to realize who we are.
- And this key - (PHONE RINGING) No.
No, no, no, no! No.
(RINGING) Don't.
Hello? (WOMAN'S VOICE): Vanessa, is it you? - Who is this? - I ll explain everything.
Thank god you re alive.
- We will- - (RUMBLING) Hello? Hello? (DIAL TONE) - Shit.
- We gotta go.
Let's go.
(ALARM SOUNDING) Who was that? I don't know.
This is a nightmare.
Maybe we're just waking up.
(HOWLING) Axel! Axel! - Good, he must have gotten out.
- No, no.
Maybe he lead them here.
Did you ever consider that maybe this is a trap? No.
Not Axel.
(ALARM CONTINUES) (GROWLING) And here we are.
Home at last.
(GROWLING)
