Legacies (2018) s02e16 Episode Script

1 Previously on Legacies My daughter Josie is under the influence of black magic.
You said you came back here for a reason.
All right, Sister Satan, let's dance.
generis fiantus.
Don't cry, Dad.
One less mouth to feed.
She thinks she won.
Hope had a plan B.
Hope's in Josie's mind? Let's use that dark magic to raise and control - Malivore himself.
- If we raise him and he gets his dirty hands on Landon I have plans for Mr.
Kirby.
Well, this is unexpected.
Josie? Your subconscious is weirding me out.
Literal bread crumbs.
Subtle.
Wait.
It's okay.
You don't have to run.
Post tenebras spero lucem.
You don't have to hide, either.
I'm not gonna hurt you.
Would you shut your piehole, lady? And put out that light, before you get us both killed.
Chad! Get the robes! We must have ceremony.
With the phoenix vessel no longer a threat to our plans, today's the day we raise Malivore! Wha What have you done to my crypt? Mm.
Classing the place up a bit.
Which means no more robes.
It's tacky.
They're iconic.
I was skeptical at first, too.
But look.
I think the curtains really do tie the room together.
Shut up, Chad.
You're out of your element.
You were all supposed to be preparing the pit.
About that, I know that I said we'd raise Malivore after the Merge was done.
But if the Merge was successful, I would have absorbed my sister.
And I can't feel her at all.
So something's wrong.
We're guessing it's Hope.
It's always Hope.
As urgent as that all seems, witch, you're not the one who decides what we do next.
See, these are my puppets.
We are gonna do what I say now.
Is that clear or do I need to make you nod? Your wish is my command.
Mm.
Get your zombie eye to find out what really happened to Lizzie.
Back to work.
I look so peaceful.
Angelic, even.
No wonder you had a thing for me.
That's not why I had a thing for you.
And why are you speaking in the past tense? - You're totally alive.
- That wreath can't go there.
That is where the doves are being released, which is after the video, remember? No.
Lizzie, this does not matter, okay? None of this is real.
It's just a show.
A show to convince Homicidal Hot Topic Josie that she actually killed me, so it better be a damn good one.
There's still so much left to do.
If you're trying to play dead, managing your own funeral defeats the point.
I'm way ahead of you there.
That is what this freakishly large ring is for.
I'm unique and special.
And for some reason, I'm really emo about it.
Wait here while I go sacrifice myself unnecessarily.
How'd I do? - What's going on here? - Hey, Daddy.
What is going on? I figured since we're disguising Hope's body as me while she roots around in Josie's subconscious, that I could pretend to be her while she's gone.
Oh Wow, is she really this short? Elizabeth? You need me to oversee the funeral.
Are we really gonna roll with this? Like, this is gonna happen - Dad! - Mm.
The emotion has to be real.
And who better to put together a touching memorial to me than me? Uh, sweetie, I think it's a great idea, but I just I think people are gonna figure it out.
Yeah, he's right.
The pack's never gonna fall for this.
Ahem.
Hello there fellow wolves.
So nice to see you again, Piper, Trevor, Brock.
Yo.
We're gonna build a human pyramid after the funeral, if you want to join.
I'd love to.
And then maybe after we could run around outside - and stare at the moon for awhile.
- Nice.
Yo, you rock, Hope.
Back atcha, Brockmeister.
The defense rests.
Fine.
But no doves.
All right, you heard the man.
We've got work to do.
Dr.
Saltzman.
I need your help.
Okay.
Hey, would you wait up? Take your "innocent girl with the basket" act someplace else.
Last thing I need is some trigger-happy skirt doing magic near me.
Why? What happens if I do magic? Don't find out! And quit following me.
You don't belong here, toots.
Sexist talking pigs aren't really my thing.
I'd love to leave, but I'm not going anywhere until I find my friend Josie.
What do you want with her? I came to rescue her.
Yeah, well, you're too late for that.
What do you mean? Pull up a stump.
Once upon a time, this was a beautiful land.
A peaceful kingdom, ruled by Princess Josette.
And then the Darkness came.
The princess tried to fight it, but using her magic only made the Darkness stronger.
It was tied to her somehow, and if she kept fighting it, the Darkness would grow to cover the entire land.
So Princess Josie placed a sleeping spell on herself so that she could never do magic again, and so that the Darkness could never grow.
If we wake her up, the Darkness will grow again.
So as much as we all miss her, this is how it has to be.
- Destiny's a bitch, huh, doll? - Maybe.
But I still have to try.
She would do the same for me.
And I think I know how to find her.
Uh, you don't want to do that.
Where's the rest of the trail? Well, um, here's the thing.
You-You're not gonna believe this.
The, uh Whenever, heh, the, uh, elements, um Uh, you know what, I ate it.
Okay? I ate it! Ha ha! "Why would I do that?" she asks.
Because I'm disgusting, and I have no self-control.
Do you see the package that I'm working with right now? Okay, you know where this trail goes.
You know where she is.
If you don't tell me where she went, I'm gonna start doing magic.
The Darkness will come.
Facing darkness is kind of my thing.
Fine.
Fine! Gah! You're a bossy little thing, you know that? Ah, that's a compliment in my world.
Remind me not to visit that place.
Raf, just calm down, okay? Whatever it is, it can't be that bad.
I killed him, Dr.
Saltzman.
The Necromancer made me do it.
We're gonna figure all that out, okay? Just It's okay.
Look, he's gonna come back.
He'll come back.
Not this time.
Josie? Josie? Josie, wake up.
You should try kissing her, maybe.
I know this is a fairy tale and all, but a nonconsensual kiss is never the answer.
Well, excuse me, little Miss Big Words.
You got a better idea? I do.
Surgere.
Hey! - We said no magic.
- I know you're scared of the Darkness, but this is Josie's subconscious.
- Nothing can really hurt us here.
- Oh! What the hell is that? That is the Darkness, sweetheart.
And it can definitely hurt us.
Little pig, little pig, who's your new friend? I can smell that magic's being used here again.
Saithus.
Happy now, you dumb broad? You nearly got us both eaten which is a lifelong fear of mine, I'll have you know.
And now the Darkness knows your magic-using ass is here.
Yeah? Well, my magic just saved our asses.
After I pulled you to safety.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you so much for pulling me behind a single piece of rubble.
What do you want from me? I got hooves for hands.
I want you to stop talking down to me and be grateful that I just saved our bacon.
Oh! How dare you! I'm sorry.
It's just a figure of speech, all right? Look, truce, okay? We both miss Josie.
We can work together to wake her up.
If we do that, the Darkness will only grow again.
Princess Josie did what she did for a reason.
She made her sacrifice because she didn't know that help was coming.
So, if we can't wake her up, then we're just gonna have to defeat the Darkness ourselves.
What's Landon up to? I don't know.
Probably off somewhere being a total beta.
Which I'm super into.
Mmm.
You bringing anyone to the funeral? You guys are bringing dates to the funeral? Aren't you in, like, mourning or whatever? Over Lizzie? I thought she was pretty popular.
Because we were all scared of crossing her.
It's kind of a relief to not have to worry about what crazy thing she's going to do next.
Besides, it's not like she's gone.
If The Necromancer brought drama queen Alyssa back, who's to say he can't bring Lizzie back, too? Unfortunately.
We need more ribbon.
Memory of Lizzie.
Oh, uh, once, she put up a barrier spell and trapped us all in the school with a gargoyle.
Um, not really sure why she did that, but it was it was pretty scary.
Yeah, no, uh More like a personal memory.
Oh.
Um Okay.
Once, she walked by me and just said, "Hard pass" for no reason.
Um, okay, cut.
Um, uh That felt pretty good to me.
Y'all need anything else or ? I think - We'll call you.
- We'll call you.
Great.
All right.
Yeah, we're gonna need to edit that last one.
It's a memorial, not a roast.
Yeah, it's pointless, man.
We'll never get them to say anything nice about Lizzie.
Girl has burned everyone in this school at least once.
Yeah, well, doesn't mean we give up on her.
Everyone thought Alyssa was mean, too.
They just didn't know the real her.
Okay.
You think Alyssa's doing okay? Dude, I'm not gonna talk about this.
Especially not with you.
We've been watching the basin all day, as requested.
The entire school, including the Tribrid, is planning a memorial for your sister, who is dead.
Which we already knew.
Mm.
There's something new in my mind that I can't quite reach.
Something that shouldn't be there.
That means they're acting.
Which means they know about your little zombie eye.
You've been fooled, Ted.
Don't ever Well, what do you want me to do? My father must be behind this.
Have a chat with him.
I'll search my mind for the thing that's out of place.
As you wish.
Oh, my God.
Lizzie.
- You're alive - Drop it.
Okay? The coast is clear.
Then what are you doing? I couldn't pretend for one more second.
Nobody is upset about me being dead.
They all hate me.
They don't hate you, Lizzie's good friend Hope.
I think they only just got to know one side of her.
That's what my eulogy's about.
Great idea.
The perfect eulogy would force everyone to remember what an amazing person that she was.
And I should be the one to do it.
After all, I knew her the best.
I don't, I don't think that's a good idea.
It's what Lizzie would've wanted.
Okay.
This is all wrong.
He always comes back by now.
It never takes this long.
All right, let's not panic, okay? The prophecy said "felled" by a golden arrow.
Now, "felled" could mean anything.
We just have to find the original Coptic word.
Do you remember what else is said in the prophecy? The wolf with many faces.
I killed him.
The Necromancer can make me kill again whenever he wants.
Listen to me.
I am gonna get that monster out of your head.
No.
You got to put me down.
That is not an option.
Look, look.
I warned Landon that I can't control this.
Now, if you don't do this now then it might be too late.
All right, listen, uh W-We're gonna get a sleeping spell.
All right? And we're gonna put you in a state of suspended animation until we figure this all out.
I am not losing another student.
Then why did you bring that down with you when you got your book? That is just a precaution.
I am trying to keep everyone safe.
So am I! Pick up your sword.
No.
Do it! Pick it up! Raf Do it or I will kill you.
I don't believe you.
Pick it up.
You need to stop me.
You killing Landon is not your fault, okay? I'm gonna find a way to save you both.
All right? You're not responsible for killing Landon.
Well, he did try to warn you, Alaric.
Where's my dad? He'll be here any moment.
A memory of Lizzie? Um I miss Lizzie so bad.
The entire school will never get over it.
Lizzie was always uh really cool.
Really hot.
So many memories of Lizzie.
And the fact that we remember Lizzie at all means that she didn't go into Malivore.
- Which, that-that's something - All right.
Uh Technical difficulties, folks.
We're just gonna move on with the next part of the service.
Thank you.
Uh This one's for Lizzie Saltzman.
How do I Say goodbye To what we had The good times That made us laugh Outweigh the bad And I thought we'd get To see To see Forever But forever's gone away - Okay.
- Ooh, you know it's gone - You know it's gone - You know it's gone away Doo-do-do-do-do-do-do, gone.
Okay, thank you.
Thank you so much for whatever that was.
I'm here today to deliver the eulogy for Elizabeth Jenna Saltzman.
Lizzie was more than one thing.
She was a witch, a daredevil, a lover.
Was she a saint? Eh, who's to say? But I can say this.
She was the absolute best of us.
She was a kind soul.
She was kind, and nice.
And sometimes she was just tired or having a bad day, or whatever.
You all think you knew her, but you didn't.
You're all wrong! That's strange.
He's always home.
Hello? Mr.
Huntsman.
I brought a nosy friend.
Oh, stew's on.
He must be nearby.
Ah.
Nice.
Sweetie, if you think that's enough to stop the Darkness, you are crazy.
Probably, but I'm not going down without a fight.
What do you say? Are you in? I-I would be no use in battle.
I-I know, I bluster a lot.
But, uh, I just get so scared, and then I say dumb stuff when I'm scared.
Yeah, I know.
I-I could finish the stew, though.
Maybe find some bread.
Uh, make you a nice meal before you go off to die.
That'll do, pig.
Don't press your luck, kiddo.
Ah It's a trap! Little witch, little witch, let me in! Hope Mikaelson are you in my head? Wh-What, what's going on? This pub's under new management.
Dr.
Saltzman! He'll make us fight you.
- Don't.
- He just wants to talk.
It's true.
I have an offer for you.
I'm not making any deals with you.
Not even if it saves your daughter? Turns out we both want the same thing.
To get that black magic out of her and send her home.
Yeah, but I'm doing that without your help.
By which you mean that little suicide mission into her mind? Ah, it's going to fail, I'm afraid.
She already suspects you're up to something.
It's only a matter of time before she figures out what you're up to and puts an end to it.
I wouldn't care either way, but I want that black magic for myself, and that wretched girl out of my life.
The good Josie is still in there, deep down.
I've seen it.
You set them free, too.
No strings attached.
Why not? I'll raise these puppets, then I'll sever my tie with them.
Can you bring back Landon, too? Of course.
You said you wanted a way to save both of us.
Come on, you gotta do it.
Listen to the lad.
Yeah, but there's no way I can trust you.
An unbreakable covenant spell, then.
If both of us don't hold up our end of the bargain, neither of us gets what we want.
You lose your puppets, and I lose me magic.
No exceptions.
When you've made up your mind, you know how to signal me.
No! Pig! What's going on? Where's Pig? Oh, uh I-I was the pig.
I thought if I disguised myself the Darkness would leave me alone.
You were the pig? You do realize he said some really patronizing - and-and sexist things to me.
- No, I know.
I just didn't want you to suspect it was me, because I need you to leave.
Okay? I don't want you to get hurt.
Josie, I'm not going to leave you behind.
No, you don't understand.
I can't have somebody else get hurt because of me.
No one will.
I love that you thought it would be that simple.
Oh, my God, run! Okay, time for some real talk.
I have something to say.
My first day here, Lizzie was my tour guide.
Just like she was for most of you.
I was so scared.
And she knew it, too.
At the end of my tour, I mentioned hating my name, Milton.
And she said, "So change it".
"No one here knows.
How 'bout MG?" Remember that shock bracelet Lizzie had? Or when she was suddenly into talent shows and-and Miss Mystic Falls, and-and football? She was always trying to start over.
And, yeah, she could be extra, but she knew it.
And she never stopped trying to change.
But did you all let her? Or did you hold onto one image of her at her worst? She was an easy target who couldn't control her brain chemistry.
So it was easier to think that she was broken than to root for her and accept that she was changing.
If you really stop and think, I'm sure you have a good Lizzie story, too.
Here's your chance.
Start over.
I liked to sew a lot.
But there was no one else to do it with.
When Lizzie found out, she started the sewing club.
We have to keep moving.
It doesn't matter, we're never gonna get away from her.
Jo, while you've been trapped in here, she's been rampaging in the real world.
Okay, she even tried to Merge with Lizzie.
Oh, my God, is she okay? For now.
But that's why we have to stop her.
- She's more powerful than I am.
- Jo she is you.
Or some part of you.
You can control her somehow.
I don't know how, but Landon would have some theory about the psychology, and what part of your personality she represents.
He would, wouldn't he? Pretty messed-up subconscious you got here, by the way.
Are we surprised? My mom used to read us fairy tales for bedtime stories.
They were so calming.
There was good guys and bad guys.
Very clear rules that you had to follow.
It all made sense.
Unlike my life.
Well, this fairy tale sucks.
It's accurate.
I'm either the powerful, petty bitch or the good, weak victim.
That's the story that you're telling yourself.
I mean, your subconscious made a fairy tale that the good you is weak and the powerful you is evil.
Tell yourself a different story.
Ah! Ah! Boring.
Let's fight.
That's strike one.
Icaeus Ah, thanks for the extra magic.
That's strike two.
Josie, you can fight her.
Hmm, that's strike three.
Josie! Change the story.
Please.
I hate you.
You're so weak and vulnerable.
The kind of girl who's so quiet that her father and mother forget about her in the chaos of Lizzie.
The kind of girl Penelope won't fight for anymore.
The kind of girl Landon breaks up with in one speech.
The kind of girl who's destined to lose the Merge.
You needed me.
Because without me, you would have never survived.
This is what being strong looks like.
That's the story that you're telling yourself.
That the good you is weak, and the powerful you is evil.
I was afraid of being strong.
I thought being strong meant hurting Lizzie.
Oh! Josie, please! Here's what being strong looks like.
Or being like Kai.
I told myself that being powerful meant being evil.
But it doesn't.
Hope is strong.
And she's good.
You made a story I made a story where I was powerless.
But that's not true.
Because I can change this story.
Enough.
I'm not afraid of you anymore.
Because I'm holding the Axe.
Finidus I just bound you to this cabin.
You're trapped here forever.
I'm not trapped.
Because we're not in the cabin anymore.
And if you use your magic against me, it hurts you, too.
But most importantly you're not wearing armor anymore.
It's over.
It'll never be over.
As long as you have black magic in you.
I will always find a way back.
We'll see.
Magia tollox De terras Magia tollox De terras Magia tollox De terras Magia tollox De terras Magia tollox De terras Magia tollox De terras Magia tollox De terras Solvo.
- Hey, I got this myself.
- Hey, studs.
Uh You got it yourself? - Alyssa.
Um, are you ? - Back? Fine? Not a zombie? Don't make it a big thing.
Um, maybe later, we can, uh Okay.
Yeah.
You You want to talk about this? No, man, she be I'm good.
She didn't have to be rude.
- Is really the thing.
- Right? We're people, too.
- People.
- I mean, I have feelings.
Thank you for not giving up on me.
Even though I didn't deserve it.
You know, one of the many joys of being your father is getting to see you slowly figure out how much you deserve.
And one day, you'll realize that what you deserve is to never be given up on.
Tell me that when the all-powerful Necromancer comes back.
We'll deal with him when the time comes.
I'm not willing to lose another student.
Oribos turai filio I saw your biological mother do a spell like that once.
Did you just ? I just put my siphon power into this coin.
Just just for a while.
Till I'm ready to use it.
When you think about it, a eulogy is just a story that we tell ourselves about someone that we've lost.
Since my friend MG is immortal, he may never get a eulogy.
But I am now convinced that everyone should hear their own eulogy.
So here goes.
The story of MG.
He was the son of a preacher and a shady government operative.
He kept what was good from each and let go of the bad.
He had his own demons, but even when they chased him into the dark, he never stayed there.
Instead, he danced like a sparkler and smiled like the sun.
He wrote a new story every day, and reminded me to always find the light.
That's as far as I got.
I don't know where the story goes from there.
Just hasn't been written yet, I guess.
Thank you for putting up with me today.
I guess after all the stuff that happened with Josie, I just really needed to feel less alone.
I know.
I should probably go and explain to everyone why I'm not really dead.
Lizzie? You're alive? Hi.
He hasn't, uh ? I don't get it.
The Necromancer freed me and Alyssa, but Landon, he he won't wake up.
Yeah, but we had a deal.
He made good on part of it.
My heartbeat's back.
I'm alive.
It doesn't feel like I have that little voice in my head anymore.
I'm free.
Landon should be back by now.
Yeah.
That's not our only problem.
I don't understand.
What's wrong with her? I'm not sure.
But she won't wake up.
