Bitten (2014) s03e05 Episode Script
Of Sonders Weight
Previously on "Bitten" I'm surprised you haven't heard.
I'm not the Sheriff anymore.
I came to Bear Valley looking for a quieter life and I realized I wasn't going to get it being a cop.
That is the one thing that protects our kind.
Humans can never know our secret.
That's too great a risk! There were rumours thirty years ago of a baby girl, Sasha's child.
Argh! He's been running away from the truth after causing your own mother's death.
You killed her! She couldn't live after what you did! You showed her what you are! Your mother was my sister.
Roman's daughter.
Alexei is about to go through one of the most painful and frightening experiences of his life.
Let me deal with her.
You take Sasha.
Jeremy's focus has been on bigger issues.
I don't agree with all of his solutions.
Get Katia away from Stonehaven, someplace safe.
I think the Russians are coming after her.
Hey, are you all right? What happened? What did you kill? I was a wolf! Alexei, this is human blood.
Yeah, babe, what's wrong? You're not here.
Sonja, we agreed.
Emergencies only.
You know I'm roaming out here.
Well, this is an emergency.
I can't seem to keep my clothes on.
Oops, there goes my bra All right, stop, just stop, okay? It's my mother.
She's on me about what she should bring to the BBQ tomorrow and she made some crack about grilling deer.
Yeah well, maybe I should bring this wolf urine.
Does a good job of keeping the deer away.
Maybe it'll work on her.
Why won't you just let me tell her why you're really out there? No, no, because then I'm going to get her sad puppy dog eyes.
And I've had enough of that.
Okay, but you will be back in time for this stupid thing, right? Yeah, I'll be home.
I don't want to be out here when the hunters show.
Well if they were more careful, you wouldn't have to do this every year.
Yeah, well, I want to.
It keeps the deer away.
And that's all that matters.
I love you.
I'll check in with you in the morning.
All right.
I love you too, babe.
Bye.
I miss you, Mike.
Hello? Hello? Hold still.
I should be out there.
Not Clay.
Hold still! Or don't.
Doesn't matter to me.
Is that Clay? Tell me where they are - and I'm going to go.
- I'm not done! - This is from the Russian wolf? - Yeah.
It's infected.
It's okay.
Elena, just leave it.
- Leave it - Stop talking! This is bad.
- Please - You need help.
Quickly.
No, I don't.
Elena! Hello? Anson.
How quickly can you get to Stonehaven? A few hours.
What's up? An infected wolf bite.
Maybe 36 hours ago.
- I'm on my way.
- Okay.
You need to get up to the infirmary.
You need to lie down and stay down.
Just just get me my phone.
I'm going to call Alexei, find where they are, okay? I cannot stay here doing nothing.
What are you going to do? Haight is on his way here to help you.
Until then, you're just going to get worse.
If you go out there, you're just a liability to him.
Don't say that.
When you try and do things things go wrong.
Come on, Alexei.
Anything.
I can't remember any of this, I don't know.
You're going to have to try.
Just think, Alexei.
Was it a male? Female? Near a house? On a road? Were there any other people around when it happened? Does any of this look familiar? That.
I remember running past that.
- I need you to think.
- Which direction? I came through here so fast I'd never run like that before in my life.
I'd I'd never felt that strong before.
I just remember something running from me.
This is your fur.
This way.
Let's go.
Alexei! Let's go.
I can turn around, we can be there in an hour and a half, tops.
Rachel isn't answering? - No.
But - Go to Rachel's.
- Is Katia within earshot? - She's in the restroom.
Tell her Sasha is resting upstairs.
But so that you know, Anson Haight is on his way here to help.
Okay.
What about the others? Marsten and Cain are en route.
Clay is with Alexei.
I'll get Jorge on to tracking the Russians.
Once we know where they went, we can make a plan, but I I'm more concerned about Jeremy.
So no one is with him? He told me he wants to be alone.
Did Morgan see Alexei change? If Jeremy is convinced that she didn't see him change, if he can get her out of that room alive, he will.
You really think he'll give her the benefit of the doubt? I don't know, Nick.
What happened? I wrapped your leg wound to stop the bleeding.
- Ahh - You took a terrible blow to your head.
I had the strangest dream.
You had a dream? What kind of dream? Contorted animal or something.
What kind of animal? I don't even know Must be from this.
A blow like that can make a person hallucinate the strangest things.
What am I How did I get here? Everything is fine.
I'm hurt.
Everything is fine, Karen.
Here.
Acetaminophen.
It's all I have, but it'll help with the pain.
You're going to feel dazed for a little bit.
Is an ambulance coming? We need to talk first.
I need to go.
That's not a good idea.
Not yet.
Hold on, I remember this.
I remember this truck.
Maybe I didn't bite him.
Maybe I just clawed him.
Either way, we need to find him.
There's no body.
Think! What happened? I don't know! What did I do Trevor Resayas.
The guy you attacked is named Trevor Resayas.
I need you to wrap your head around the fact that there is a human out there, somewhere, possibly alive, possibly changing.
- No - Hey! Alexei! You can't shut down on me.
We have to find him.
There's only one set of tracks in.
That's good, no one drove him out.
Wolf urine? People use it in Dawson to keep deer out of their gardens.
Deer hunting season starts tomorrow.
Maybe he's some sort of an activist.
If he's experienced in the woods, he'll know how to find his way out of here.
He had gasoline.
He spilled gas on me.
That's why I smelled of it.
It tasted bitter.
Stung in my mouth.
It made me stop.
But before the gas, I tasted blood.
I bit him.
I know I bit him.
Let's go.
I've got the map.
If Roman crossed at Niagara, then we'll see if we can track them through Southern Ontario.
Thanks, Jorge.
Hop on the next flight out.
We're going to need you here.
What are you doing up? Is this about Roman? He's in Canada, huh? Wh Where? Sit down.
I cannot sleep, okay? Not with everything in disarray.
Sit.
Down.
You're angry with me, huh? You don't want to get into this with me right now.
I do.
No, you don't.
Trust me, the things that I'm angry about, they're not going anywhere.
I'm here, now.
Be honest with me.
Be honest with you? You weren't honest with me.
You came down here with only half the story.
"I'm your father.
Here are your siblings.
" All I ever wanted was a family.
But every single time, it's like everyone only puts forward the best versions of themselves.
You hide the part that will make me walk away.
Everyone? You.
But this has happened to you before.
Yes.
Right where you're sitting.
When Clay bit me in, he didn't tell me what he was.
He was just hoping to save me.
And Jeremy was convinced that I'd seen him change.
If he thought that He was going to kill me.
Your leg is stable.
It's going to be fine.
I don't want to frighten you.
Then tell me why I'm still here.
I need to understand what you're doing, Karen.
Why are you here? The Russians.
I saw them in town.
Something seemed off.
I followed them here, I saw your car.
I was concerned for your safety.
You saw them outside.
Look Jeremy, whatever happened here I can help.
Pull some strings.
I haven't been away from the uniform that long.
Did you report them? The Russians? I heard you.
I thought you were in trouble.
So I came up here.
I'm on your side.
I want to believe you, Karen.
I have friends in the FBI.
We can get you out of this, Jeremy.
I can help.
Listen to me.
The only way that we're going to get out of this is if you let me help you.
I'll tell you everything.
You can't hide the bad.
The bad is the part that I need to know.
It's the part that lets me decide if I want any of this.
I don't want to hurt you anymore.
"Anymore" Why wouldn't you just tell me that I'm a Navikev? How did I find out? Should've been from you but instead, Konstantin told me.
Konstantin, who's apparently my uncle.
He's the one that told me the truth, just before he tried to kill me.
I'm sorry, Elena.
I'm not done.
My mother.
Did you kill her? Yes.
In a way, I did.
Hey.
This guy's a fighter.
He's pushing to get out of the woods.
Well you know, if he got this far, maybe he survived.
Maybe I didn't kill him.
If he survived, that's worse.
He's out there somewhere, in pain, confused.
The wolf is making its way through his blood.
He gets to a hospital, starts changing We're done, Alexei.
The secret's blown, do you understand what that means? If we find him, and he's alive, maybe there's some sort of middle ground.
Maybe we can bring him in, we can train him.
There's no middle ground, Alexei.
I don't make these rules.
So break them.
Trevor Resayas already has a life.
A woman who's calling him.
He finds out he's about to become a werewolf? There's little chance he's going to want to learn to live like us and give up everything he loves.
We don't know him.
We don't know the people who know him.
It's too risky.
So he's dead either way.
Why not let him choose? You know, maybe you're wrong.
Maybe this whole system of rules is wrong.
No.
The only reason this works, our lives, is because we have to rely on each other to keep the secret.
I see her face in yours.
The first time I saw you, I saw her.
She was stubborn too, you know, like you.
But No, not stubborn.
Um Defiant.
I have nothing to go on except what you tell me.
Right now, I think that you murdered my mother.
No Oh, I loved your mother.
And Roman loved your grandmother.
But when your mother was born, he distanced himself from them, but made sure they were provided for.
He bought them a house in the country.
When your grandmother died, Roman felt it was too dangerous for him to go, he might want to meet his daughter, so he sent me to check in, just to make sure she was okay, and at want for nothing.
It started out as an obligation.
I didn't expect to fall in love.
What was she like? Natalya.
She was everything.
The first time I saw her, she was in the graveyard in the town, she was putting flowers on your grandmother's grave.
I saw her, and I could not help myself, I had to speak to her.
And so I lied, I told her my mother was buried there, too.
The next day I took her for coffee.
I took her hand.
And I never wanted to let go.
She had no idea who you were? No Not at first.
But I couldn't stay away.
And soon, I was seeing her every moment that I could.
All the while, I lying to Roman.
You know, I was hiding.
Torn between my Alpha and my love.
My duty and my dream.
I couldn't bear to lie to her anymore.
Not after I found out she was pregnant with you.
I loved her too much.
So you told her Who I was.
Someone sent by her father to check in on her.
And what I was.
A monster.
But a monster who loved her.
I've fought all my life.
I've killed men, even.
But the two of you you made me feel stronger than I'd ever felt before.
But when you're a wolf, how do you know what's wrong and what's right? Humans will run.
The wolf instinct is to chase.
You need to train that instinct out.
But how do you do that? You tap into the part of you that's still human.
You remain aware that everyone has a life.
When you pass someone on the street, they have hopes, dreams fears, regrets.
They want to walk the Great Wall.
Learn to swim.
Run a marathon.
Beat cancer.
They're thinking about what's in the freezer for dinner, or how to tell someone they're sorry.
They love and they hurt and they are.
Then there's a ripple effect.
Trevor's friends.
Sonja.
His mother.
Maybe he has kids.
People who love him.
People who rely on him.
Their lives are forever changed by what you've done.
The red-eyed wolf who killed my mother? He didn't care about any of that.
Neither did the wolf who killed mine.
And her death? I shared our secret.
I broke the rules.
I let your mother see me change.
And she loved me anyway.
But there's no going back from that.
On the day she died, everything was calm.
I'd taken you for a walk in the woods.
When I came back, she was dead.
Roman waited for me, to kill me.
How did Roman find out? I don't know I've tried to piece that together since her death.
It's a question that haunts me every waking moment.
I should have fought him, but I didn't.
I should have gone to her, but I didn't.
I I had to get you away.
So I ran.
You had me.
How did we get separated? I knew Roman was going to come after me.
It was not safe.
I, um I left you at a small hospital.
It was run by Canadian volunteers, but A Russian nurse, she promised me that she would keep you safe.
When I circled back, months later you were gone.
Taken to Canada by the couple that would become the parents that you knew.
I thought that was for the best.
So you got away and still, you gave me up? I did it to protect you.
You thought I was a liability.
Thirty years, I have hated myself for what I did.
So I understand if you do, as well.
For what I did to you.
For what happened to her.
I'm sorry.
Roman killed her.
Not you.
Her death was his fault.
Yes, and no.
For him, he had no choice.
I broke the rules.
Natalya should never have known what I was.
I thought love was enough.
This secret It doesn't protect us.
It kills us.
But what can we do? There are rules in this world, however unfair they may seem to you and me.
She was innocent.
So were you.
If Jeremy was about to kill you, it wasn't because of you.
Your mother didn't do anything wrong, neither did you.
Exactly.
Yet he was going to killed me.
Jeremy would have lived with your death the same way I live with your mother's.
He didn't even know me.
I was just a girl, in love.
And I was nervous to meet him.
And he was going to kill me.
Even if he did know, it still wouldn't matter.
The rules are in place and he believes in those rules.
Your biology saved you, it gave him the chance to know you, to love you.
He carries the guilt of what he almost did.
He wears it in his heart and he wears it in his eyes.
See your way to forgive him.
Everything he does is to protect you.
Everything that he does is to protect the Pack.
No.
It's you.
You are the heart of this Pack.
Without you, there is nothing.
So how are you helping me get out of this? Calling an ambulance? You seemed so happy when you said you retired.
Remember you told me you were ready to settle down? A quiet life? Like I say, I was concerned for your safety.
I heard the fighting.
I saw your car.
So once a cop, always a cop? I came here because of you.
But you first came here because you were interested in the Russians.
Your instincts were right.
They were here to kill someone.
Not you? No.
Actually, I don't know.
Some old family history.
I was trying to fix it.
A vendetta between two families, and I couldn't make it right.
Brokering the peace today that was your responsibility? It's always my responsibility.
It falls on me.
When you were a Sheriff, was there ever a moment even just for a second, when you wished that you could hand off some of that responsibility? Just a little piece of your job so someone else would do the work? You met my Deputy.
I could barely trust him with a lunch order.
Know what, okay I have a sister.
Lucy.
She trusts implicitly.
She was always dating the wrong guy, and giving them her PIN number and then calling me when things fell apart.
I was always there for her, but my advice never really took.
When I rose up through the ranks and got busy, and her life happened and before I knew it, she met Josh.
He's one of the good ones.
Whirlwind romance, down on one knee I'm her only sister.
I was the maid of honour.
The morning of her wedding, I got a call.
I was still on the force in Baltimore.
You had to answer the call.
I had been trying to solve that case for years.
Domestic homicide.
A witness came forward.
He was going to be deported, we had the tiniest window of opportunity, so I took it.
It was my responsibility.
That case wasn't going to get solved otherwise.
I had years to make it up to my sister.
But how did she feel? Huh I'd love to talk to her about it.
If she'd take my calls.
But 10 years later, she still won't.
You made a tough choice.
I took an oath.
To me, there was no choice.
But I was wrong.
I should've been there for her.
That witness could've been interviewed by my partner.
It seemed so important to me at the time, and I have a niece I've never met.
It's more important.
Family, that's what matters.
Everything that I do, I do to protect my family.
The Russian, Roman Navikev, he wanted to kill the other man that was here, it's an obsession about an old vendetta.
But he he also wants to kill a member of my family.
And I'm just trying to prevent that.
And things got violent, and that's when you walked in.
And made things worse.
I think that we can make this better.
Could you just walk away from this? From what I know? Yeah, from what you saw.
From what happened to you.
Can you just understand that I am a man trying to protect his family.
So I just turn a blind eye? These are very bad people.
And you don't want help? That would just make things infinitely worse, trust me.
Can you trust me? I want to be able to trust you.
I want to trust that you are just going to walk away from here and find that quiet life.
I learned too late from my mistakes.
I lost my sister.
I do want a quiet life.
So what happened today was I was pruning my hedges and I fell off my ladder.
Yes.
And we walk out that door together? Yes.
Okay On the other side of that door is where I say goodbye.
You can trust me because I'm done.
There's a fishing rod with my name on it.
I just I just I beg you to get out too, while you still can.
Let's go.
Easy up.
I'll go.
Forget I was ever here.
And ever saw your car parked out front, that the Russians were ever anywhere near here.
I'll forget walking up those stairs and see It wasn't a dream, was it? That boy.
He was changing into something.
A wolf? God, did I see him change into a wolf? Yes.
You saw a werewolf.
That's what that boy is.
And so am I.
Everything you saw is real.
The Russians, what happened in this room, your leg It's all true.
And I'm still the man that you know, and I am just a man trying to protect his family.
And you saw what we are.
And you saw what I am.
And no one else can know that.
Can I trust you with that? I'm going to get you out of here.
Okay? You lost a lot of blood You need to see a medic.
So we're going to talk about this another time.
This is my responsibility.
I'll figure it all out.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry, Karen.
How's he doing? It's a good thing I got here when I did.
Sepsis can get into the organs, shuts everything down.
Have you tended to many werewolves? Just myself.
Just once.
Here.
I was stationed in Fallujah, and there was a sniper.
Pinned down a wounded soldier in my battalion, out in the open.
And if I went out to help, if I got shot and the medics knocked me out, I wasn't sure if I'd be able to control my Change.
I could play it safe or I could do the right thing.
Not really a choice.
So I ran out and hauled my guy to safety.
Took one in the leg.
Carved it out of myself later.
Did he survive? The soldier? No But I wasn't going to let him die out there alone.
Thank you for being here.
You call, I come.
What would I choose that's different? We all need a purpose.
Otherwise, what's the point? You're just a hitchhiker, a passenger.
Not driving the bus, not choosing the path.
Just, sometimes, it feels like that path is leading to a cliff.
I need to take this.
Thank you.
Are you okay? What's happening there? I spoke to Jorge, he just landed in Syracuse.
He told me that Marsten and Cain are on their way to you, and that you had him track Roman.
He found a line of credit cards that lead to Southern Ontario.
Thank you.
Are you coming back? Jorge is going to come here and clean up the room.
And he's going to bury Morgan.
Jeremy He's going to take her car to the airport.
That will buy us a little bit of time before her family knows that she's missing.
And you? I'm going to go after Roman.
No, you can't go by yourself.
Take Cain, take Clay, take me.
You can't go after Roman alone.
No, you have to stay there and oversee things, Elena.
I have to do this on my own.
No You are not leaving me in charge, Jeremy! You are coming back! Please You know, it's fitting that a Russian said it best.
It was Dostoyevsky.
He said that "the mystery of human existence "lies not in just staying alive but in having something to live for.
" You've given me that.
You gave me something to fight for, above and beyond just Pack rules.
And I'm not going to let Roman take that away from me.
I'm not going to let him take you away from me.
I'm going to do what must be done, Elena.
Don't hang up.
I forgive you, Jeremy.
I forgive I forgive you.
Thank you.
No sign of the Change.
Looks like an animal attack.
We'll leave the body here for someone to find.
Let his loved ones have some closure.
It was the wolf in me.
The wolf was excited to attack this guy.
Trevor.
Feeling that adrenaline rush it was unbelievable.
What if that's who I am? What if I can't stop? Hey, babe! Sorry for bitching about my mom.
She's bringing salad.
Did you move the deck chairs to the cottage? They're not in the shed.
I am the worst.
Bothering you while you're out there, keeping the deer away, making sure no one else loses a kid brother to a stray bullet.
I love you.
Elena! Every one of us gets to this place in a different way.
We need each other.
It's the only way we can do this.
I'll get him under control.
What about my father? He's resting upstairs.
He's been through a lot as well and he could use your strength right now.
I found this at the front gate.
Jeremy called.
Morgan.
She saw.
Jorge is on his way, he'll handle it.
Jeremy's gone after Roman.
Where? I don't now.
He demanded we not follow him.
But we have to go.
It's Marsten.
Please, enough! Enough!
I'm not the Sheriff anymore.
I came to Bear Valley looking for a quieter life and I realized I wasn't going to get it being a cop.
That is the one thing that protects our kind.
Humans can never know our secret.
That's too great a risk! There were rumours thirty years ago of a baby girl, Sasha's child.
Argh! He's been running away from the truth after causing your own mother's death.
You killed her! She couldn't live after what you did! You showed her what you are! Your mother was my sister.
Roman's daughter.
Alexei is about to go through one of the most painful and frightening experiences of his life.
Let me deal with her.
You take Sasha.
Jeremy's focus has been on bigger issues.
I don't agree with all of his solutions.
Get Katia away from Stonehaven, someplace safe.
I think the Russians are coming after her.
Hey, are you all right? What happened? What did you kill? I was a wolf! Alexei, this is human blood.
Yeah, babe, what's wrong? You're not here.
Sonja, we agreed.
Emergencies only.
You know I'm roaming out here.
Well, this is an emergency.
I can't seem to keep my clothes on.
Oops, there goes my bra All right, stop, just stop, okay? It's my mother.
She's on me about what she should bring to the BBQ tomorrow and she made some crack about grilling deer.
Yeah well, maybe I should bring this wolf urine.
Does a good job of keeping the deer away.
Maybe it'll work on her.
Why won't you just let me tell her why you're really out there? No, no, because then I'm going to get her sad puppy dog eyes.
And I've had enough of that.
Okay, but you will be back in time for this stupid thing, right? Yeah, I'll be home.
I don't want to be out here when the hunters show.
Well if they were more careful, you wouldn't have to do this every year.
Yeah, well, I want to.
It keeps the deer away.
And that's all that matters.
I love you.
I'll check in with you in the morning.
All right.
I love you too, babe.
Bye.
I miss you, Mike.
Hello? Hello? Hold still.
I should be out there.
Not Clay.
Hold still! Or don't.
Doesn't matter to me.
Is that Clay? Tell me where they are - and I'm going to go.
- I'm not done! - This is from the Russian wolf? - Yeah.
It's infected.
It's okay.
Elena, just leave it.
- Leave it - Stop talking! This is bad.
- Please - You need help.
Quickly.
No, I don't.
Elena! Hello? Anson.
How quickly can you get to Stonehaven? A few hours.
What's up? An infected wolf bite.
Maybe 36 hours ago.
- I'm on my way.
- Okay.
You need to get up to the infirmary.
You need to lie down and stay down.
Just just get me my phone.
I'm going to call Alexei, find where they are, okay? I cannot stay here doing nothing.
What are you going to do? Haight is on his way here to help you.
Until then, you're just going to get worse.
If you go out there, you're just a liability to him.
Don't say that.
When you try and do things things go wrong.
Come on, Alexei.
Anything.
I can't remember any of this, I don't know.
You're going to have to try.
Just think, Alexei.
Was it a male? Female? Near a house? On a road? Were there any other people around when it happened? Does any of this look familiar? That.
I remember running past that.
- I need you to think.
- Which direction? I came through here so fast I'd never run like that before in my life.
I'd I'd never felt that strong before.
I just remember something running from me.
This is your fur.
This way.
Let's go.
Alexei! Let's go.
I can turn around, we can be there in an hour and a half, tops.
Rachel isn't answering? - No.
But - Go to Rachel's.
- Is Katia within earshot? - She's in the restroom.
Tell her Sasha is resting upstairs.
But so that you know, Anson Haight is on his way here to help.
Okay.
What about the others? Marsten and Cain are en route.
Clay is with Alexei.
I'll get Jorge on to tracking the Russians.
Once we know where they went, we can make a plan, but I I'm more concerned about Jeremy.
So no one is with him? He told me he wants to be alone.
Did Morgan see Alexei change? If Jeremy is convinced that she didn't see him change, if he can get her out of that room alive, he will.
You really think he'll give her the benefit of the doubt? I don't know, Nick.
What happened? I wrapped your leg wound to stop the bleeding.
- Ahh - You took a terrible blow to your head.
I had the strangest dream.
You had a dream? What kind of dream? Contorted animal or something.
What kind of animal? I don't even know Must be from this.
A blow like that can make a person hallucinate the strangest things.
What am I How did I get here? Everything is fine.
I'm hurt.
Everything is fine, Karen.
Here.
Acetaminophen.
It's all I have, but it'll help with the pain.
You're going to feel dazed for a little bit.
Is an ambulance coming? We need to talk first.
I need to go.
That's not a good idea.
Not yet.
Hold on, I remember this.
I remember this truck.
Maybe I didn't bite him.
Maybe I just clawed him.
Either way, we need to find him.
There's no body.
Think! What happened? I don't know! What did I do Trevor Resayas.
The guy you attacked is named Trevor Resayas.
I need you to wrap your head around the fact that there is a human out there, somewhere, possibly alive, possibly changing.
- No - Hey! Alexei! You can't shut down on me.
We have to find him.
There's only one set of tracks in.
That's good, no one drove him out.
Wolf urine? People use it in Dawson to keep deer out of their gardens.
Deer hunting season starts tomorrow.
Maybe he's some sort of an activist.
If he's experienced in the woods, he'll know how to find his way out of here.
He had gasoline.
He spilled gas on me.
That's why I smelled of it.
It tasted bitter.
Stung in my mouth.
It made me stop.
But before the gas, I tasted blood.
I bit him.
I know I bit him.
Let's go.
I've got the map.
If Roman crossed at Niagara, then we'll see if we can track them through Southern Ontario.
Thanks, Jorge.
Hop on the next flight out.
We're going to need you here.
What are you doing up? Is this about Roman? He's in Canada, huh? Wh Where? Sit down.
I cannot sleep, okay? Not with everything in disarray.
Sit.
Down.
You're angry with me, huh? You don't want to get into this with me right now.
I do.
No, you don't.
Trust me, the things that I'm angry about, they're not going anywhere.
I'm here, now.
Be honest with me.
Be honest with you? You weren't honest with me.
You came down here with only half the story.
"I'm your father.
Here are your siblings.
" All I ever wanted was a family.
But every single time, it's like everyone only puts forward the best versions of themselves.
You hide the part that will make me walk away.
Everyone? You.
But this has happened to you before.
Yes.
Right where you're sitting.
When Clay bit me in, he didn't tell me what he was.
He was just hoping to save me.
And Jeremy was convinced that I'd seen him change.
If he thought that He was going to kill me.
Your leg is stable.
It's going to be fine.
I don't want to frighten you.
Then tell me why I'm still here.
I need to understand what you're doing, Karen.
Why are you here? The Russians.
I saw them in town.
Something seemed off.
I followed them here, I saw your car.
I was concerned for your safety.
You saw them outside.
Look Jeremy, whatever happened here I can help.
Pull some strings.
I haven't been away from the uniform that long.
Did you report them? The Russians? I heard you.
I thought you were in trouble.
So I came up here.
I'm on your side.
I want to believe you, Karen.
I have friends in the FBI.
We can get you out of this, Jeremy.
I can help.
Listen to me.
The only way that we're going to get out of this is if you let me help you.
I'll tell you everything.
You can't hide the bad.
The bad is the part that I need to know.
It's the part that lets me decide if I want any of this.
I don't want to hurt you anymore.
"Anymore" Why wouldn't you just tell me that I'm a Navikev? How did I find out? Should've been from you but instead, Konstantin told me.
Konstantin, who's apparently my uncle.
He's the one that told me the truth, just before he tried to kill me.
I'm sorry, Elena.
I'm not done.
My mother.
Did you kill her? Yes.
In a way, I did.
Hey.
This guy's a fighter.
He's pushing to get out of the woods.
Well you know, if he got this far, maybe he survived.
Maybe I didn't kill him.
If he survived, that's worse.
He's out there somewhere, in pain, confused.
The wolf is making its way through his blood.
He gets to a hospital, starts changing We're done, Alexei.
The secret's blown, do you understand what that means? If we find him, and he's alive, maybe there's some sort of middle ground.
Maybe we can bring him in, we can train him.
There's no middle ground, Alexei.
I don't make these rules.
So break them.
Trevor Resayas already has a life.
A woman who's calling him.
He finds out he's about to become a werewolf? There's little chance he's going to want to learn to live like us and give up everything he loves.
We don't know him.
We don't know the people who know him.
It's too risky.
So he's dead either way.
Why not let him choose? You know, maybe you're wrong.
Maybe this whole system of rules is wrong.
No.
The only reason this works, our lives, is because we have to rely on each other to keep the secret.
I see her face in yours.
The first time I saw you, I saw her.
She was stubborn too, you know, like you.
But No, not stubborn.
Um Defiant.
I have nothing to go on except what you tell me.
Right now, I think that you murdered my mother.
No Oh, I loved your mother.
And Roman loved your grandmother.
But when your mother was born, he distanced himself from them, but made sure they were provided for.
He bought them a house in the country.
When your grandmother died, Roman felt it was too dangerous for him to go, he might want to meet his daughter, so he sent me to check in, just to make sure she was okay, and at want for nothing.
It started out as an obligation.
I didn't expect to fall in love.
What was she like? Natalya.
She was everything.
The first time I saw her, she was in the graveyard in the town, she was putting flowers on your grandmother's grave.
I saw her, and I could not help myself, I had to speak to her.
And so I lied, I told her my mother was buried there, too.
The next day I took her for coffee.
I took her hand.
And I never wanted to let go.
She had no idea who you were? No Not at first.
But I couldn't stay away.
And soon, I was seeing her every moment that I could.
All the while, I lying to Roman.
You know, I was hiding.
Torn between my Alpha and my love.
My duty and my dream.
I couldn't bear to lie to her anymore.
Not after I found out she was pregnant with you.
I loved her too much.
So you told her Who I was.
Someone sent by her father to check in on her.
And what I was.
A monster.
But a monster who loved her.
I've fought all my life.
I've killed men, even.
But the two of you you made me feel stronger than I'd ever felt before.
But when you're a wolf, how do you know what's wrong and what's right? Humans will run.
The wolf instinct is to chase.
You need to train that instinct out.
But how do you do that? You tap into the part of you that's still human.
You remain aware that everyone has a life.
When you pass someone on the street, they have hopes, dreams fears, regrets.
They want to walk the Great Wall.
Learn to swim.
Run a marathon.
Beat cancer.
They're thinking about what's in the freezer for dinner, or how to tell someone they're sorry.
They love and they hurt and they are.
Then there's a ripple effect.
Trevor's friends.
Sonja.
His mother.
Maybe he has kids.
People who love him.
People who rely on him.
Their lives are forever changed by what you've done.
The red-eyed wolf who killed my mother? He didn't care about any of that.
Neither did the wolf who killed mine.
And her death? I shared our secret.
I broke the rules.
I let your mother see me change.
And she loved me anyway.
But there's no going back from that.
On the day she died, everything was calm.
I'd taken you for a walk in the woods.
When I came back, she was dead.
Roman waited for me, to kill me.
How did Roman find out? I don't know I've tried to piece that together since her death.
It's a question that haunts me every waking moment.
I should have fought him, but I didn't.
I should have gone to her, but I didn't.
I I had to get you away.
So I ran.
You had me.
How did we get separated? I knew Roman was going to come after me.
It was not safe.
I, um I left you at a small hospital.
It was run by Canadian volunteers, but A Russian nurse, she promised me that she would keep you safe.
When I circled back, months later you were gone.
Taken to Canada by the couple that would become the parents that you knew.
I thought that was for the best.
So you got away and still, you gave me up? I did it to protect you.
You thought I was a liability.
Thirty years, I have hated myself for what I did.
So I understand if you do, as well.
For what I did to you.
For what happened to her.
I'm sorry.
Roman killed her.
Not you.
Her death was his fault.
Yes, and no.
For him, he had no choice.
I broke the rules.
Natalya should never have known what I was.
I thought love was enough.
This secret It doesn't protect us.
It kills us.
But what can we do? There are rules in this world, however unfair they may seem to you and me.
She was innocent.
So were you.
If Jeremy was about to kill you, it wasn't because of you.
Your mother didn't do anything wrong, neither did you.
Exactly.
Yet he was going to killed me.
Jeremy would have lived with your death the same way I live with your mother's.
He didn't even know me.
I was just a girl, in love.
And I was nervous to meet him.
And he was going to kill me.
Even if he did know, it still wouldn't matter.
The rules are in place and he believes in those rules.
Your biology saved you, it gave him the chance to know you, to love you.
He carries the guilt of what he almost did.
He wears it in his heart and he wears it in his eyes.
See your way to forgive him.
Everything he does is to protect you.
Everything that he does is to protect the Pack.
No.
It's you.
You are the heart of this Pack.
Without you, there is nothing.
So how are you helping me get out of this? Calling an ambulance? You seemed so happy when you said you retired.
Remember you told me you were ready to settle down? A quiet life? Like I say, I was concerned for your safety.
I heard the fighting.
I saw your car.
So once a cop, always a cop? I came here because of you.
But you first came here because you were interested in the Russians.
Your instincts were right.
They were here to kill someone.
Not you? No.
Actually, I don't know.
Some old family history.
I was trying to fix it.
A vendetta between two families, and I couldn't make it right.
Brokering the peace today that was your responsibility? It's always my responsibility.
It falls on me.
When you were a Sheriff, was there ever a moment even just for a second, when you wished that you could hand off some of that responsibility? Just a little piece of your job so someone else would do the work? You met my Deputy.
I could barely trust him with a lunch order.
Know what, okay I have a sister.
Lucy.
She trusts implicitly.
She was always dating the wrong guy, and giving them her PIN number and then calling me when things fell apart.
I was always there for her, but my advice never really took.
When I rose up through the ranks and got busy, and her life happened and before I knew it, she met Josh.
He's one of the good ones.
Whirlwind romance, down on one knee I'm her only sister.
I was the maid of honour.
The morning of her wedding, I got a call.
I was still on the force in Baltimore.
You had to answer the call.
I had been trying to solve that case for years.
Domestic homicide.
A witness came forward.
He was going to be deported, we had the tiniest window of opportunity, so I took it.
It was my responsibility.
That case wasn't going to get solved otherwise.
I had years to make it up to my sister.
But how did she feel? Huh I'd love to talk to her about it.
If she'd take my calls.
But 10 years later, she still won't.
You made a tough choice.
I took an oath.
To me, there was no choice.
But I was wrong.
I should've been there for her.
That witness could've been interviewed by my partner.
It seemed so important to me at the time, and I have a niece I've never met.
It's more important.
Family, that's what matters.
Everything that I do, I do to protect my family.
The Russian, Roman Navikev, he wanted to kill the other man that was here, it's an obsession about an old vendetta.
But he he also wants to kill a member of my family.
And I'm just trying to prevent that.
And things got violent, and that's when you walked in.
And made things worse.
I think that we can make this better.
Could you just walk away from this? From what I know? Yeah, from what you saw.
From what happened to you.
Can you just understand that I am a man trying to protect his family.
So I just turn a blind eye? These are very bad people.
And you don't want help? That would just make things infinitely worse, trust me.
Can you trust me? I want to be able to trust you.
I want to trust that you are just going to walk away from here and find that quiet life.
I learned too late from my mistakes.
I lost my sister.
I do want a quiet life.
So what happened today was I was pruning my hedges and I fell off my ladder.
Yes.
And we walk out that door together? Yes.
Okay On the other side of that door is where I say goodbye.
You can trust me because I'm done.
There's a fishing rod with my name on it.
I just I just I beg you to get out too, while you still can.
Let's go.
Easy up.
I'll go.
Forget I was ever here.
And ever saw your car parked out front, that the Russians were ever anywhere near here.
I'll forget walking up those stairs and see It wasn't a dream, was it? That boy.
He was changing into something.
A wolf? God, did I see him change into a wolf? Yes.
You saw a werewolf.
That's what that boy is.
And so am I.
Everything you saw is real.
The Russians, what happened in this room, your leg It's all true.
And I'm still the man that you know, and I am just a man trying to protect his family.
And you saw what we are.
And you saw what I am.
And no one else can know that.
Can I trust you with that? I'm going to get you out of here.
Okay? You lost a lot of blood You need to see a medic.
So we're going to talk about this another time.
This is my responsibility.
I'll figure it all out.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry, Karen.
How's he doing? It's a good thing I got here when I did.
Sepsis can get into the organs, shuts everything down.
Have you tended to many werewolves? Just myself.
Just once.
Here.
I was stationed in Fallujah, and there was a sniper.
Pinned down a wounded soldier in my battalion, out in the open.
And if I went out to help, if I got shot and the medics knocked me out, I wasn't sure if I'd be able to control my Change.
I could play it safe or I could do the right thing.
Not really a choice.
So I ran out and hauled my guy to safety.
Took one in the leg.
Carved it out of myself later.
Did he survive? The soldier? No But I wasn't going to let him die out there alone.
Thank you for being here.
You call, I come.
What would I choose that's different? We all need a purpose.
Otherwise, what's the point? You're just a hitchhiker, a passenger.
Not driving the bus, not choosing the path.
Just, sometimes, it feels like that path is leading to a cliff.
I need to take this.
Thank you.
Are you okay? What's happening there? I spoke to Jorge, he just landed in Syracuse.
He told me that Marsten and Cain are on their way to you, and that you had him track Roman.
He found a line of credit cards that lead to Southern Ontario.
Thank you.
Are you coming back? Jorge is going to come here and clean up the room.
And he's going to bury Morgan.
Jeremy He's going to take her car to the airport.
That will buy us a little bit of time before her family knows that she's missing.
And you? I'm going to go after Roman.
No, you can't go by yourself.
Take Cain, take Clay, take me.
You can't go after Roman alone.
No, you have to stay there and oversee things, Elena.
I have to do this on my own.
No You are not leaving me in charge, Jeremy! You are coming back! Please You know, it's fitting that a Russian said it best.
It was Dostoyevsky.
He said that "the mystery of human existence "lies not in just staying alive but in having something to live for.
" You've given me that.
You gave me something to fight for, above and beyond just Pack rules.
And I'm not going to let Roman take that away from me.
I'm not going to let him take you away from me.
I'm going to do what must be done, Elena.
Don't hang up.
I forgive you, Jeremy.
I forgive I forgive you.
Thank you.
No sign of the Change.
Looks like an animal attack.
We'll leave the body here for someone to find.
Let his loved ones have some closure.
It was the wolf in me.
The wolf was excited to attack this guy.
Trevor.
Feeling that adrenaline rush it was unbelievable.
What if that's who I am? What if I can't stop? Hey, babe! Sorry for bitching about my mom.
She's bringing salad.
Did you move the deck chairs to the cottage? They're not in the shed.
I am the worst.
Bothering you while you're out there, keeping the deer away, making sure no one else loses a kid brother to a stray bullet.
I love you.
Elena! Every one of us gets to this place in a different way.
We need each other.
It's the only way we can do this.
I'll get him under control.
What about my father? He's resting upstairs.
He's been through a lot as well and he could use your strength right now.
I found this at the front gate.
Jeremy called.
Morgan.
She saw.
Jorge is on his way, he'll handle it.
Jeremy's gone after Roman.
Where? I don't now.
He demanded we not follow him.
But we have to go.
It's Marsten.
Please, enough! Enough!
