Legacies (2018) s03e04 Episode Script

1 Previously on Legacies The Triad combined their blood to create a golem capable of consuming all the things that go bump in the night.
How could something that's basically a mud robot be my father? He found a way to reproduce biologically.
To have a son.
I'm scared.
Especially now that you're human.
- You mean weak? - Landon - Now that I'm not special.
- Don't put that on me.
I did black magic.
You killed her.
I just put my siphon power into this coin till I'm ready to use it.
We bring back Malivore, but we don't stop there.
We bring back all the monsters.
And I shall hold dominion over them and this plane.
You want to go first, or should I? I'm sorry.
All we need now is the final piece of the Triad spell.
I assume you've secured a vampire? Take my hand, I'll vamp us out of here.
Ad Somnum.
What's the occasion? Celebrating our theatrical debut.
Funny.
Never again.
Actually, um, don't laugh, but it's kind of our anniversary.
The math is admittedly complicated, but if you subtract the time when you were in Malivore, plus the time that we were unwilling to admit we had broken up when we pretty much had - Yeah, my head hurts.
- Yeah, see? Complicated.
Mm-hmm.
But we have officially been boyfriend and girlfriend for one year.
The pancake anniversary, I think it's called.
You may not have superpowers, but you're a pancake god.
Thank you.
And I have a whole date planned.
- Hmm.
- We'll have dinner.
We could dance in the square.
You're being very cute right now.
Thank you.
I'd like to make tonight special, too.
Well, you're gonna have to sing me that song again.
Okay, not exactly what I had in mind.
What did you? Oh, God.
You mean, like, "special" special.
I mean, if you're ready.
I know I am, so I live in a fairly constant state of ready, yes.
Okay.
I love you, Hope Mikaelson.
- I think that about covers it.
Anything else you want to know? Um, one more question.
Would you title this "A Day in the Life of a Timberwolf"? It's pretty generic, even for a jock like me.
But if I was behind on my journalism assignment, sure.
The Salvatore Scroll thanks you.
Fun fact, I've been trying to pitch "A Day in the Life of a Stallion" to the school paper all year, but your dad never calls me back.
If this assignment goes well, uh, maybe it'll open some doors.
I hope so.
Um, I need all the good PR I can get.
Turns out all those fancy colleges stop calling when you bust your throwing arm.
I'm really sorry about that.
It wasn't your fault.
Oh, also, tell your dad he sucks for ghosting us, too.
Our new principal is a total hard-ass.
You'll probably see him first.
He and your mom have gotten pretty close.
Parent sex.
On that disturbing note, take care of yourself, Jo.
Hey.
What do you think you're doing here? I'm consecrating this space.
Tethering these grounds to another dimension.
Preparing it to become a Repository Monstrum.
Leave.
Now.
But the spell I mean to do requires far more blood than this, and what better place to find it than a high school teeming with human beings? Dad! Josie.
What happened? The Necromancer killed the principal at Mystic Falls High.
He's planning some sort of blood ritual.
Everybody at the school is in danger.
All right, go inside.
I'll handle it.
- What are you gonna do? - What I always do.
Fight the battle, fix the problem, then erase the evidence.
Now, go.
A zombie dragon? How do we erase that? Whatever you're planning, you don't have to do this.
You don't have to keep pulling on those ropes.
They're soaked in vervain.
Now, hush, you.
This spell's like a zillion years old, and Ted's gonna be even more of a bitch than usual if I screw it up.
You don't have to do what The Necromancer wants.
So, can you just talk to me before you make a mistake that you're gonna regret? Fine.
You got two minutes, but just because your eyes are so dreamy.
What exactly does he want from you? Duh.
I'm recreating the original Triad spell that spawned Malivore, silly.
So you're seriously gonna raise Malivore all over again? For starters.
Then I'm gonna raise all the monsters he ever consumed.
The Necro is using you, Alyssa.
I know you're mad at the world and pissed at the school, but I can help you.
You're right.
You can.
Because I need the blood of a vampire.
That's why you're here.
Necromancer has made his move, and the entire student body is in that high school with him.
So the question my daughter asked me earlier is one I put to you now: What are we gonna do? I have a plan.
In the past, I would have kept it from you.
You know, I built this school to protect you and your gifts from a world that understands neither, but the way I see it you're the world's only shot now.
All right, enough with the speech.
I'm in.
Well, you haven't even heard the plan.
It ends with us winning, right? - Yeah.
- Where the hell is MG? Found a note from him this morning.
He went to go help Alyssa Chang.
- Then I'm in, too.
- Yeah.
Make that the three of us.
Landon, this is gonna be very dangerous.
- And given recent events - I went to that school.
I mean, I'll stay out of the fight, but I can help.
Like he said, we're in.
All right.
Who else is with us? Don't do it.
I'm begging you.
Raf's blood is already in this mud stew.
So is mine.
Ignore the fine print for a second.
But once I add yours, my spell's way more powerful than the first one.
It has to be, because Malivore needs to serve Ted.
- Alyssa - Now the fine print.
That's gonna require a bit of sacrifice.
So before you ask, yes, this spell will kill you.
You'll grow weaker with every monster that gets raised until, well, you die.
But don't worry.
Ted's gonna bring you back.
And he's gonna tweak some things, too.
Tweak me how? He'll make you love me this time around, Milton.
Like you should have the first time.
Alyssa, please.
Don't do this.
Just did.
Because this is my plan.
Welcome to Team Monster.
No.
As much as I appreciated last night, you can't be here.
Some maniac in a Halloween costume has taken over the school, and my kids are trapped inside.
Which is why you have to do exactly as I say.
I'm sorry it has to be this way, but it is a matter of life and death.
You are aware we have guns? My team won't even know how to use these.
That's okay.
Mine will.
Are you crazy? They're kids.
Oh, they're more than that.
They're special.
And this will go a lot easier if you just trusted me.
What do you need from us? I need you to evacuate the town and then have your team help my students hold the line.
Against what? See for yourself.
Here they come! Ric, what the hell is happening? Exactly what we wanted.
That's my cue.
I got to get out of here before he sees anything we don't want him to.
Are you sure that this is the right way? Positive.
I used to hide out down here all the time when Connor R.
I.
pieces was bullying me.
That door's gonna lead us up into the boiler room, which should lead us up into the school.
Uh shouldn't have said "us," huh? It's no wonder I don't have a weapon.
I want you to be with me, Landon.
I do.
I just I want everything we talked about this morning even more.
I mean, I'm not saying that you're weak; you're just human, like you were when I first fell in love with you.
I just can't risk losing you again.
I'll stay here.
You go be what you've always been: a brilliant, gorgeous, tribrid hero.
Just be back in time for that date tonight.
Barrier spell.
It's probably spelled by a dark object I can't get through.
We're gonna need Lizzie to come and siphon it.
It must be to keep people like you out.
People like me humans You said if it's a dark object, - anyone can take it down, right? - Theoretically.
If you were to go inside without me, which you are so not doing.
Hope, we don't have a choice.
Deep down, you know I'm right.
Once you get inside, you're looking for a totem that emanates black magic, - like a, uh a bell or - A candle.
I got it.
Once you break the spell, please hide until I get there.
Hey, don't worry.
I'm just Obi-Wan.
I'm going to take down the tractor beam so the heroes can save the world.
- He died, didn't he? - Okay, first of all, you only know that because I forced you to watch the Star Wars movies.
And second, there are two more good sequels, and I'm not gonna die before you see them.
I promise.
What the hell are you doing? Dad wants us to take down Alyssa, so I need you at full strength.
You know I don't trust myself with magic.
And seeing Ethan today reminded me why.
What I did to his arm.
Yeah, and now he is trapped in that school where something awful is bound to happen.
So maybe save his ass and call it even? Lizzie, I'm not ready.
Then do it for me.
Alyssa's on Team Monster, remember? And MG still hasn't come back.
You're pining.
I am not.
I'm just worried about him.
In a super piney way.
Admit it, after all this time, he's finally won you over.
I suppose it's possible that the better a person I become, the more I feel like not giving MG a shot wasn't about him failing to live up to my standards.
It was the other way around.
I really hate to ask you this, Jo, but I need to help him.
The way that he is always helping me.
So, if recent events have taught me anything, it's that you and I are more powerful together than we are apart.
I know you're in a weakened condition now that Ted started raising monsters, but it's your move.
Sorry, but I'm not in the mood.
This isn't a game to me.
Okay, then you forfeit your turn.
King me.
Is that what this is about to you? Power? Control? Well, it sure beats the alternative.
And no offense, but a bloodthirsty vampire like you isn't exactly qualified to lecture this plain old thirsty witch on control.
Maybe that's exactly why you should listen to me.
Because I know what it's like to think of yourself as a monster.
To be called one by your parents.
I know you're desperate and all, but that's low.
You know the mom-and-dad card is triggering for me since I incinerated mine.
- Game over! - I actually don't know much about it.
I mean, I-I know what happened but not why.
Though I'm sure I could guess.
Okay, then.
Have it your way.
Let's play that game.
Your parents saw the worst in you when they found out you were supernatural.
They rejected you, and that hurt.
So you wanted to share that pain with everyone else, hoping that would make it go away.
Wrong answer, but don't worry, we've got lovely parting gifts.
Then prove me wrong.
Tell me what really happened to you, Alyssa.
My parents loved me.
Okay? Me being a witch didn't matter to them.
All they ever wanted was the best for me.
But I still lost control.
And how did that work out for them? They're dead.
But your crappy parents are still alive.
So cry me a freaking river, MG.
MG! MG! Ted raised something big.
I linked this portal to his location.
It must have just come out on his side.
I'm sorry.
Even if I wanted to change my mind, it's too late.
He's in control now.
Not changing mine, either.
Because you were right, and I was wrong.
Our stories aren't the same.
I had to prove my parents wrong.
All you have to do is prove yours right.
Find a way to stop this before The Necromancer gets what he wants.
See, Jo? Just like riding a bike.
- MG.
- Oh, God.
I wouldn't touch that.
Okay, I don't have to listen to you.
I'm not dead, so you can't stop me.
My dear, dull boy, I don't plan to.
Okay, then what is your plan, exactly? To have my revenge.
To fuel a spell so powerful it will set every monster within Malivore loose to rain destruction upon this world.
Consuming humans the way Malivore once consumed us and to have them all serve me.
That's way more petty than I thought.
Everyone keeps saying.
Yeah, yeah.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a blood sacrifice to attend.
Well, the only thing you'll be attending is the afterlife once Hope gets here.
Well, beats your family reunion.
Hey, Dad.
Listen well, my new acolyte.
End Landon Kirby as you see fit.
Savor it, as it will be you last act of free will.
Then come to me so your eternity of misery can begin, my faithful servant.
We'll have to work on that bow.
Less head, more knees.
Aw, man.
Okay.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
You want to get back at The Necro, right? I can help.
Just-just-just hear me out instead of consuming me! I'll take that as a yes.
How bad is it? On a scale from horrific to apocalyptic, a 12? Can you even imagine how much black magic is brewing in that thing? Trust me, I can.
It's been inside me.
I know how we can stop it.
But you're gonna hate it.
More than dying? That's a pretty low bar.
Wake Alyssa up.
There's no way in hell that we're doing that.
Lizzie, she knows the spell.
She linked it to The Necromancer.
So she can stop it or help rewrite it or find some other loophole with-with your help.
If we could trust her.
All you gotta do is trust me.
She'll do the right thing.
I'm literally betting my life on it.
The spell The Necromancer did to raise you must have also made you his servant.
And I'm willing to bet that new symbol on your face is the binding part of that spell.
I mean, I don't take many witchcraft classes, but I am dating the most badass witch ever.
I'd say you two should meet, but you kind of already have, and her blood is the only thing that's toxic to you, so Awkward.
And she's also super protective of me, so I'm definitely somebody you want to collaborate with instead of eat.
The bottom line is actually something Hope taught me.
There is always a loophole with magic.
We just have to figure out what that is.
The Necromancer said to end me as you see fit.
That's a loophole, because even though you have to do what he says, he gave you a lot of wiggle room.
You created me to be your vessel, right? Then use me to destroy him and free yourself.
I may not be immortal anymore, but there's no symbol on my forehead that binds me to him.
What do you say, Dad? This is the door Landon was talking about.
Go, go, go.
- Ethan? - Hope.
You saw Landon? Yeah, he told my sister and I to sneak everyone out of the school once he disabled the tractor beam, whatever that means.
He did it.
Where was he? Last I saw, he was headed towards the football field.
Okay, you need to go.
So do I.
You're too late.
I've already seen how you die, as surely as I once foresaw that we should meet again.
Well, I'm guessing you failed to foresee that this was a trap.
I told you we had guns.
Ethan and Maya are safe, along with their classmates, thanks to your students.
Thanks to you for trusting me.
Oh, it's the least I could do after last night.
Well, you ain't seen nothing yet.
Now, go, round up your team.
With The Lion King dead here, it's time we took the fight to them.
Copy that.
Where are you going? I got to go handle, uh, Bullwinkle.
More blood, more monsters.
I must thank you for helping me solve this little dilemma.
You know, teaching really is the noblest of professions.
Caedis.
Fomes.
Gnavigem vectorium.
Necromancer! Oh, you are a resilient little cockroach.
You're just in time to witness the end of your world, Mr.
Kirby.
This is not my world.
And I am not Landon Kirby.
What do you mean, you're not Malivore.
Mr.
Malivore.
This isn't necessary.
Surely, we can cut a deal.
Be reasonable! My very veins course with black magic.
I can give you anything your muddy heart desires if you only say the word.
You cannot be serious.
Jed two, Kaleb zero.
Who sucks at killing zombies now? I distracted it.
Don't tell me you're gonna ignore my assist again.
Oh, come on, man.
This isn't hockey.
All right, boys, quit bickering.
Hey, nice job.
- Thanks.
- Thank you.
Doc.
Is that normal? No.
What the bloody hell was that? I don't care.
I know what I want from you.
Well, then you're far better at negotiating than that meat suit you're wearing.
And I'm all ears.
I want you to die.
No! Ashes to ashes.
Phoenix or not.
Landon.
Landon, you say? Oh, I'm afraid you just missed him.
But my dragon didn't.
We can't find Hope or Landon.
What do you mean? They're obviously here.
Well, I have the whole precinct and your entire school scouring this campus.
We checked all the other classrooms, the football field.
There's no sign of them or any monsters.
They're just gone.
Well, aren't you gonna say anything? You're always good for a snarky quip.
Hmm? No? All right.
Have it your way, then.
As long as your way is well done.
Because I'm about to have my pet come back and barbecue you, just like your boyfriend.
Some all-powerful tribrid you are.
Bring dragons back all you want.
They're always gonna have a soft spot.
As I've always had one for you.
Save your breath.
You'll be dead before it even gets here.
I don't even breathe, for I am the Herald of Hades.
The Grimmest of Reapers.
I am death incarnate! You can't kill me.
Maybe not.
But I can stick that head of yours in some very unpleasant places.
Can I play, too? You were right, by the way.
I don't need a weapon if I have you.
Landon? In the flesh.
Somehow.
Prove it.
How is this happening? I have no idea.
There is no earthly explanation for me coming back to life.
Unless That flash of light.
Hope, Landon and the monsters got sent to a prison world.
That flash of light we saw.
That explains why they were here one minute and then gone the next.
It has to be.
You care to translate for those of us who didn't believe monsters existed until before this morning? It's an alternative dimension that looks exactly like our world, except without all the people.
- Got it.
So, heaven.
- It's more like limbo.
If you're banished to a prison world and you die, it just brings you back to life again.
The only thing I don't understand is Why are we still here? I consecrated the school and this field, used black magic to tether them to Malivore to summon him.
It was all working so perfectly.
Well, whatever you did, thanks for the extra life.
Don't thank him.
I doubt he's the one that linked those spells to the ascendant that sent us here.
The tribrid's right.
I should never have trusted that blasted witch.
Alyssa Chang.
Seriously? Literally no one trusts Alyssa Chang.
Well, that girl never met a linking spell she didn't like.
Riddle me this, Yorick.
How do we get out of here? We don't.
Not until someone in our world finds a way to pull us out.
Which we can't let them do while you're still raising creatures from Malivore, not to mention Malivore himself.
- See the problem? - It's our problem now.
So be a dear and put me head back on me body, would you? There may be another way.
If you trust me.
Have you lost your mind? Trust's what got me in this mess in the first place.
I wasn't talking to you.
I mean, do you even have to ask the question at this point? You two are unbearable! Ow.
What are you doing? No.
Don't you dare.
Sangiema Meam Et Nos Mundo Carcerema.
Sangiema Meam Et Nos Mundo Carcerema.
Sangiema Meam Um, Earth to witches? I suddenly feel a lot better.
Uh, are we cool? Yeah.
I think so.
What did you do? We created a new prison world.
We moved all the spells Alyssa linked to our world to it.
So you're both free.
I mean, it's not the prettiest ascendant I've ever seen, but I'm really lucky a pair of Gemini twins showed up.
And that you guys have a seemingly endless amount of Bennet blood.
Not to mention the supernova still going on.
Thank you.
I guess that's what I'm trying to say.
Don't thank us.
Thank MG.
If it weren't for him, we would have tossed you into the pit by now.
You're welcome, I guess, is what Lizzie's trying to say.
We should probably head back Let Dr.
Saltzman know what's going on, after a group hug? I'll see you at home.
You coming? If, you know, you can forgive me for the one time that I killed you? Oh, yes.
Oh Uh, okay, are you sure this is gonna work? No, I'm not.
That's where the trust comes in.
I mean, were you sure about letting Malivore use you as a vessel? Double no.
Although, if I came back, won't the prison world resurrect Malivore, too? We're not gonna be here long enough to find out.
Well done, body.
Now that we are reunited, rest assured, no prison can hold me.
For I am the It's about time you retu What happened to your symbol? Bloody hell.
Malivore's dimension can't contain me.
My blood is toxic to him, so he should spit us right back out.
Hopefully in the real world.
I mean, it's happened to me and Kai before, so third time's the charm, right? Hold on tight.
Oh, don't worry.
I'm not letting go of you again.
Is this tight enough? Never.
See you on the other side.
Landon? Landon? I'm right here.
I'm sorry.
You're probably wondering who I am or how I even know your name.
It's all a little bit crazy, but if you just let me explain You should probably explain first why you know I like Peanut Butter Blasts.
I remember, Hope.
All of it.
Before you ask, I don't know.
I don't know why I remember everything or why the pit is suddenly empty.
Maybe it's because we came through the portal together? Maybe it's because I let Malivore use me as a vessel.
Whatever it was, something's changed.
Well, milkshake first, then mythology.
Well, I woke up first after we came through the portal, obviously.
I figured you could use the rest, so I set you up on the bench and then headed for The Grill.
Yeah, not exactly the big anniversary date I had planned, but what are you gonna do? So then we made it? This is our world? I didn't see a single soul, but I don't know if that's because the town's been evacuated or we're somewhere else.
Okay, we should probably head back and find out.
Okay, just wait, wait.
One dance first.
Okay.
This brings back memories.
Speaking of, it's highly unlikely that anyone remembers us.
I was thinking we could keep it that way.
I can't.
I know.
It's nice to indulge in the fantasy for a second, right? Our reality is better than any fantasy.
Uh, fair warning.
I only have a conceptual understanding of what we're about to do, so I'm probably going to be terrible at it.
Same.
I need a drink.
I am way ahead of you.
Or maybe not.
I can't believe I'm boozing at Hogwarts.
That Mystic Falls is overrun with supernatural creatures.
It gets easier when you think of it as their home, too.
Why bother? You're not gonna let me remember any of this.
So, me and the vamps just finished compelling all the townspeople down at the evacuation center.
Oh.
I'm guessing she's last? Yeah.
But, uh I want you to compel her to remember everything.
You want me That sphinx hit you in the head, didn't it? I know this changes everything.
And it may mean that I lose you but it's your decision to make.
That must've been a hell of a year Lot of crazy, lot of fun, lot of shedding of tears We met Sebastian, Vardemus, Chad, Jade and Kym We had to beat The Necromancer all over again But it's good, Super Squad stay packed with the pack Big Ric gettin' his mack on with Sheriff Mac Alyssa Chang was a pain till we met Dark Jo But thank Lord Salvatore that we didn't lose hope, uh Didn't lose hope You already know that we didn't lose hope There you are.
You're missing one hell of a party.
Been doing some thinking.
You sure I should be the one to have this? That ascendant's the only thing keeping The Necromancer locked away, so I'm just as sure as you were that I'd do the right thing.
Even when I wasn't.
It's just because it's easier to believe in others than to believe in yourself.
But all I did was give you a chance to make the right decision.
And I'm kind of hoping you'll return the favor.
You sort of saved the world today and salvaged what's left of my reputation.
What did you have in mind? Just you seeing that I do understand what you're going through, romantically speaking.
Because I've lived that same story with Lizzie, and the truth is, I've been treating you the same way that she treats me.
So I know what it's like to be on the other end of that.
I've always seen you, Milton.
So the only question is What do you want to do with that? What I wish would have happened for me.
I want to give us a shot.
I-If you're down with that, because I know the time How'd it go with MG? I missed my window.
I guess I always thought that he would be there, waiting for me to be okay.
I'm sorry.
I guess I'm happy that he's okay, too.
Even if Alyssa is cleaning his tonsils.
Thanks for helping him, Jo.
For helping me.
It's what we do for each other, right? But I am not ready to do magic.
So I put it away again.
Hold this for me? Whatever you think is best.
I've been thinking about that a lot, actually.
The whole reason I was at the high school is because I want to transfer to Mystic Falls.
Live a non-witch life for a minute or however long it takes.
If I have your support.
You okay? I mean, was that Weirdly perfect.
Is that what flying feels like? Flying is way less awesome.
You know, I never thought that I could be this happy.
So I gave up on it.
All I had to do was let myself.
Let myself be with you.
Hey, are you okay? Hope.
- Landon - What's happening? Landon? Landon? Landon.
Landon! Landon!
