Locke & Key (2020) s02e08 Episode Script

1
Mom says you ought to take a break.
Grab the next.
Agh!
I'm no good at it.
You're not patient.
That's different.
Perhaps your gifts
weren't passed on to me.
It's true.
War rages all around us,
and all I can contribute
is stacking weapons
made and wielded by better men.
So what purpose do I serve in this world?
You will find your calling, my son.
Now, back to it.
- Father, there's
- I know!
I need you to sneak out and run into town.
Alert Captain Crais and his
- There's too many of them. You need
- Do as I say! Go!
Peter! What is it?
King's soldiers.
Hide in Miranda's room.
Do not come out no matter what.
Open up!
What do you want?
Well, good evening.
You must be Peter Locke.
And you are?
Captain Frederick Gideon
of the Crown's 23rd Infantry.
Rumor has it
that you're manufacturing colonial weapons
and stockpiling terrorist armaments
on your property.
We thought we'd come
and have a look around.
Rumors are ugly things, Captain.
My family's asleep.
So I'm going to ask you to leave.
Shame on you for your bad manners,
not even inviting me in for a cup of tea!
Did you not hear
that I'm an officer of your king?
Search the house!
You heard him. Let's go.
You two, with me.
Spread out over everything.
We're looking for weapons!
Oh God!
Look what we found
along with eight barrels of gunpowder
and stolen British guns in the attic.
You and the men help yourselves
to their belongings.
- No!
- We'll load it in the wagons.
No!
Leave it to one of His Majesty's officers
to steal what's not rightfully his!
- Oh, Peter!
- I take care of my men.
Peter!
And my men take care of me.
Anyone get any rest?
Yeah.
Me either.
Why doesn't Gabe come after us?
'Cause he's probably gonna
build an army first, turn more people.
We need to warn our friends.
All the Savinis,
anyone who knows about the keys,
before they get turned.
Maybe they can help us
get the key away from him.
If Gabe's out there making more demons,
we can't just go over there unprotected.
- I'll wear the Hercules belt.
- I can take the Matchstick Key.
What about me?
- You're going to school.
- What?
Are you kidding me? No way.
Look, we're gonna be armed,
and there isn't another key for you.
- Your school is safest. He won't go there.
- What about Mom?
I'll watch out for her.
- I can't just sit in class!
- Yeah, you can.
- Why can't I come?
- We said no. Stop pushing.
- It's not fair!
- Hey! What's going on?
Oh, just a little spirited
morning conversation.
We're gonna be late. Coming, Kins?
Yeah, just let me grab my stuff.
Okay.
What was that all about?
Normal teenage stuff.
It's nothing to worry about.
Hey, don't blow me off here, Duncan.
Kinsey's having problems
with Gabe.
Bode's upset because he and Gabe are buds,
so Tyler and I,
just running some interference.
Well, is she okay?
I think so. She didn't get too specific.
Teenagers don't like talking to adults
about this kind of stuff.
No, but they do wanna
talk to you about it.
I'm the "funcle." What can I tell you?
It's fine, Nina.
Please don't worry.
Look, I'm waiting
on some parts for the GTO.
I've got nothing to do.
Maybe I can help.
Need an intern at the theater today?
Sure. I mean, if you really want to.
I have always wanted an intern.
Great! How do you take your coffee?
Go ahead, eat.
I guess I missed the invite to brunch.
Luckily, your new errand boy drives a car
that you can see from space.
What are you doing here, Eden?
I'm willing to forgive and forget the fact
that you abandoned me at Keyhouse,
seeing as we are partners.
- We're nothing.
- Are you serious?
You only have that key
because I helped you.
It's basically half mine.
I disagree.
And so do they.
This is your army?
You could have turned
half this town by now.
I'm not gonna waste this gift
on just anyone.
See all these demons?
They're all helpful,
compliant, and obedient.
Whereas you, Eden,
you're insignificant to me.
Fine.
You do your thing, and I'll do my thing.
And I'll be sure to tell Kinsey
that you say "hi"
right before I snap her neck.
You might wanna think twice
about whether or not you wanna do that.
Run along.
I have real work to do.
Mm-hmm.
Tide is high, moon is drunk ♪
Vessels sailed, sailors sunk ♪
Waves of sound, sea of sharks ♪
Catch you off your guppy guard ♪
Are we gonna be able to pull this off?
If he's already turned a bunch of people
What choice do we have?
Shit. I didn't do anything.
Pull over.
Hook you smooth
While they pat you on the back ♪
It's Mutuku.
Hey, Detective Mutuku.
Tyler and Kinsey Locke.
Been a while. How've you been?
We're fine. Did I
Did I do something wrong?
Well, that depends.
Do you really think you can stop him?
Oh my God.
- He's waiting for you.
- Drive!
Where should
we put the guns, Captain?
- In the wagon. Gunpowder too.
- Aye, Captain.
Careful with that.
No!
Be careful with that. It's powder.
More rifles.
Stow that away.
That's the lot of it, sir.
Good, just one more thing to do.
No.
- What's he doing? Peter, what's he doing?
- No! No!
Have you no mercy!
Good.
- I think I'll start with this one.
- No! No!
- No! No!
- No!
No!
Take cover!
Surround them!
Find cover!
Return fire!
All redcoats, move off the line!
Fall back! To the horses! Go!
Move! Move! Fall back! Man down!
Benjamin!
Well done, son.
Let's go!
Give me your knife.
Behind the bales!
Captain, let's go!
Push harder.
You can do it.
You can do it!
Yah!
Or perhaps
you cannot.
And worst of all,
your death will mean nothing.
Captain! There's too many! We need to go!
- Got them on the run!
- Cover the captain.
Peter, no! Peter!
- They're getting away!
- Retreat!
- Father.
- I'm sorry.
Get after them!
We're loaded!
They're heading for the main trail!
Whoa. Whoa.
Yah!
We'll get above the tide line,
hide out till they finish their search.
Yah! Yah!
They must've come this way.
Spread out.
You see anything?
Fresh heel prints.
They must be this way. Look.
They can't be far.
Where to now?
- Quiet.
- What is that?
What in God's name?
What is this?
They must have gone this way.
Captain.
- They found us.
- Then we'll make our stand here.
What are we witnessing?
Careful, they're here! Duck!
Howe! Get down!
Yah!
I'm heading to school.
Oh my God.
I didn't realize how late it was.
- You want me to make you breakfast?
- I had cereal.
What's all this?
Oh, uh, I'm going through
the Keyhouse ledger that Nina gave me,
cross-referencing some things on this map,
trying to understand where things were,
what's still around
Oh, nerd stuff.
Incredible nerd stuff.
- Love you.
- Love you too.
Have a good day at school.
Bye!
Bye!
So Gabe is Dodge?
Eden being a demon
really is not that surprising.
Try and take this from me.
Demons can't take keys from Lockes.
I can't!
JK. Yoink!
Really?
I knew I wasn't a demon,
but I'm still relieved.
Okay, now that I know
that you're all still you,
we have to find Gabe
and get his Demon Key away from him
before he turns anyone else.
He's already got Javi.
What if a demon comes after us?
You have to take them out.
As in "take them out"?
Pretty much.
But
What if we know them?
If Gabe turned them,
you don't know them anymore,
and you do not wanna end up like them.
Grab the heaviest thing you can.
Swing it hard.
Okay, this is getting Romero as hell.
Wait, I feel like I've been
training my whole life for this.
I mean, but this is real life.
Not a movie.
This is very real. And these demons
are supernaturally strong.
But they're not invincible.
Wait. So, I mean, if we kill Gabe,
do the rest of them die too?
They're not vampires, Doug.
I understand, but maybe
the same principles apply.
They have to be killed one by one,
and Gabe's an echo.
He can't be killed by force.
Great. So what are we supposed
to do about him?
Let me know if you see him,
but stay far away from him.
Okay, that's a reasonable plan.
If anyone sees Gabe or Eden
or Javi or anything weird,
call me, text me immediately.
All right, let's do this.
Man, I really liked Javi.
Me too.
- Until he tried to kill my family.
- Fair point.
- Morning.
- Morning.
What you got there?
I, uh
found this weird key in my house.
You wanna You wanna see it?
Pretty cool.
What's it open?
Maybe someday we'll find out.
Well, I'm gonna stop for coffee on the way
to class. You guys want anything?
- Nah, I'm good.
- Okay.
Can you help me
keep an eye on her today? She, um
She can't understand any of this.
Of course.
Yo, Jackie! Wait up!
Everything all right?
- So far.
- No sign of Gabe, but, um
he got to Mutuku.
- What?
- Yeah.
Mom still thinks Mutuku's her friend.
If you see him, keep her away.
Phones away.
Hey.
Thanks.
So what happens now?
Tyler and Kinsey
are working on it.
- Hey!
- You can have it back at recess.
Give it back now!
Excuse me? Do you wanna take it up
with the principal?
No. Don't say anything else.
I'm sorry.
Okay. Everyone,
take out your math worksheets.
"Captain Frederick Gideon
was apprehended by Captain Crais
and his men
after an intense skirmish
in a nearby sea cave."
I've opened a gateway
between the two worlds.
A portal to the beyond
that mere mortals cannot comprehend.
While my fate is likely sealed,
I implore you,
find this place
and let the staggering power
of the other realm
wash over this flawed world.
Frederick Gideon,
for your multitude of crimes
of which you were found guilty,
the people of Massachusetts Bay Colony
have sentenced you to death.
You were a monster
before you went into that cave.
I don't have a word for what you are now.
Well, I am only the beginning, boy.
Others from my world will follow,
then rip your world apart!
Enough! Drop him.
Don't look.
"Captain Gideon,
guilty of crimes including assault,
theft, arson,
and the murder of Peter Locke."
Ready for the first coat, boss?
Just about.
Are you okay?
I I'm just
in a weird place right now.
Things with Josh went south,
and, uh, the kids are pulling away.
I don't think they mean to.
I just know how this goes.
It's a cycle with me.
I feel
disconnected and and lonely,
and it just drives me
to wanna take a drink.
What can I do to help?
It's good for me
to focus on something else.
So, uh, yeah,
let's get back to it.
I'll I'll grab the rollers.
Oh my God!
Hey.
Scot? We just saw Javi.
He's headed through the courtyard
towards the Reynolds building.
- Yeah, I got him. I'll tell Kinsey.
- Okay.
Hey.
He's going
to the Reynolds building.
Headed there now.
What's wrong?
What if something bad happened
to one of us?
My mom can't remember magic,
so she'd blame herself.
It's not fair.
Mrs. Lafferty, you said
I could have my phone back at recess.
No more texting during class, Bode.
Cover for me, okay?
Cover for you? What are you doing?
Javi's on campus. I gotta go.
- Anything I can do?
- Uh
Stay with her.
Uh Oh God.
Uh, what do I do? What do I do?
Um
Okay.
All right, a-hole. Let's do this.
Yeah! You don't want
any part of me, do ya?
Knew those Krav Maga classes
would pay off!
- Are you okay?
- Better now. Whoa, look out!
No!
- Get off me!
- Let her go!
Let's go.
No!
- Hey, Kins.
- What do you want from me?
Isn't that obvious?
I want you to join me.
Then just get it over with!
No, I want you to choose it.
How could you think
that I would ever choose to be one of you?
It would be so much better
for you to want it.
That will never happen.
Just let her go, Gabe!
Let her go!
Let her go, and
you can turn me instead.
- Sure, we can turn you next.
- No.
- No! No!
- It's okay.
No! No!
It's not really a negotiation.
Leave him alone! Get off me!
No!
Welcome to the dark side.
No!
No!
No!
False alarm!
- Run!
- Running!
Bode! What are you doing here?
Uh, I saw that you guys were in trouble,
so I pulled the fire alarm.
- That was you?
- Yeah.
Where's Javi?
With Gabe and some minions.
They're all over the place.
We gotta get out of here.
No, I can't just leave Jackie here.
I'll go get her. I'll meet you at home.
No, no, no. Come on. We gotta go.
Okay, come on.
- All right, what's going on?
- I don't even know where to begin.
Tyler?
Afraid not.
We should check on the kids.
Kinsey just sent a text. Apparently,
it's some sort of prank.
Oh, okay.
I think it's a pretty good excuse
to call it a day, don't you?
- Should we try to find the kids first?
- Uh, no.
She said that
they're gonna meet us at home.
Okay.
Jackie!
Logan!
Hey!
Hey!
- You okay?
- I'm fine.
Clearly, I'm missing something
because you and Logan are acting weird.
Can we please get out of here?
Sure, just, uh
Can you do me a favor?
Just, uh
take this key out of my hand.
You already showed me that this morning.
Yeah, just just take it,
and then we can go.
I don't know what's going on with you,
but you're kind of freaking me out.
Jackie, take the key.
Sorry, lover.
I can't do that.
No.
Tyler, this is gonna happen to you too.
You need to accept that.
Trust me.
It'll be so much easier
if you don't fight this.
And think of how happy we'll be together.
Ty!
Ty!
Don't listen to her, man.
He turned her into a psycho, demon chick.
Let's get outta here!
I've read
about strange phenomena,
but nothing like this.
We have to find some way to contain it.
We cannot do it through normal means.
It scares me.
Yet I'm drawn to it.
Careful!
This is what Gideon and one of his men
were struck by.
Do you hear that?
The whispering?
No.
This strange metal is whispering to me.
- What is it saying?
- I don't know.
But it's calling to me.
Late night?
Eden, what are you doing here?
It's past curfew.
You know, I had a feeling
there was something different about you.
You got way too pissed
when someone stole your artifact.
Okay, I'm going home now,
and you should do the same.
But you're so close
to finding out the answer
of where that little metal lump came from.
So close to
this.
This is what you're looking for, right?
This portal?
What could you possibly know about this?
Well, for starters,
I know that the portal is in a sea cave,
and I know where the sea cave is located.
Okay, where is it?
I could take you there.
But first, I need you
to do something for me.
Something that will benefit
both of us, actually.
What?
Your portal,
it's behind a locked door.
I need you to get me the key
that opens it.
Just stay there. I'll keep you posted.
The Savinis are all camped out at Doug's.
They're safe.
Hey, Tyler.
- I need your help.
- What's the matter?
Jackie's been turned.
Gabe got to her.
Ty, I'm so sorry.
- No, no, we can fix this. We can save her.
- How?
The Demon Key, it basically locks a demon
to someone's soul, right?
But a key turns both ways.
So we just need to make a new key
that unlocks a demon from a soul.
You need Whispering Iron to make a key.
Dad loved hiding things
around the house, you know?
Little secret surprises for us to find.
Ty, if he had a "break glass in case
of emergency" stash of Whispering Iron,
I never knew about it.
Say that again.
"Break glass in case of emergency" stash
of Whispering Iron?
Rendell used to wear this all the time.
Seriously, who
who puts a fishing lure on a baseball cap?
He said he had it there just
in case of emergency.
What are you doing?
In case of emergency.
Whoa.
What's wrong?
I don't hear whispering.
You can't hear that?
- Uh-uh.
- No.
Nobody else can?
Making a key is a conversation
between the Whispering Iron
and the key maker.
I heard whispering
when I made the Memory Key
and the other night with Gabe,
but this one
it's not speaking to me.
It's speaking to you.
What good will a door do?
It will turn evil against itself
by making both lock and key
from this Whispering Iron.
The door will work.
I know it in my heart.
No luck?
I'm missing some element. It's
In my reading of the rituals of alchemy,
you must have two things.
Intention and sacrifice,
to bind the spell-caster, you,
to the magic source, the Whispering Iron.
What kind of sacrifice?
If only
Father were here to see it.
I wonder what else
we can craft with these.
This is the only shot we get at this.
I'll talk you through every step.
Let's get to work.
