The Wheel of Time (2021) s03e06 Episode Script

The Shadow in the Night

1
You still here
after all this time?
[people screaming, clamoring]
My friend can make all the
scary thoughts go away.
- [Lanfear] What's his name?
- Aludran.
[Lanfear] He's holding you back.
I want you to tell me what
you know about Perrin Aybara.
[Eldrin] We haven't seen him.
[Natti hyperventilates]
- [grunts]
- No!
- [Dain] One of you is a witch!
- Wait!
[Perrin] Natti and the
girls are in the camp.
Bain, Chiad and I will sneak in.
- Perrin.
- Where's your mother?
You did this?
- [grunts]
- [grunts]
The time for watching him
is through, Egwene Sedai.
[Egwene] Every night,
I see her in my dreams.
- [gasps]
- Can you travel with me in the Dream?
Is there something
you saw in Rhuidean?
- [grunts, shouts]
- [Egwene] And it's worth the risk?
[Moiraine] Yes.
[Lanfear] A queen in
your bed already, Rahvin?
- You can sniff each other's asses later.
- [chuckles]
Sammael.
A bracelet.
Liandrin's looking for
the matching collar.
We're going to collar the
Dragon Reborn himself.
[baby crying]
- [shushes]
- [crying continues]
He won't want you
screaming like that.
He doesn't like screaming.
- [crying continues]
- I said quiet, you little rat!
[breathing heavily]
[shushes]
[baby cooing]
Aludran.
That's your name.
- [door unlocks, opens]
- [gasps]
- [Aludran crying]
- [breathing heavily]
[chuckles]
[Aludran cooing]
It's got your whore's face.
[Aludran cries]
[cooing]
Give it here.
Drown it.
[Aludran crying]
[whimpering]
No!
[Aludran crying]
[screams]
- [screaming, grunting]
- [Aludran crying]
[people laughing, clamoring]
[people shouting]
Please.
Please, can you help me?
- I need to get out of the city. Please.
- Get out me way.
[cries] Please.
- Please.
- [passerby 1] Get what you deserve, hussy.
Please help.
[passerby 2] Take your
begging elsewhere.
[crying] Someone.
Anyone!
Don't walk away from me!
[Aludran crying]
[Liandrin humming]
[humming stops]
- [stranger] Hello.
- [gasps, breathing heavily]
Liandrin.
That's your name, right?
Would you like some help?
[inhales deeply]
- [Lanfear] So here you are.
- [inhales sharply]
You've been slippery
since you left the Tower.
Lady Lanfear.
[Lanfear chuckles]
It's hard to feign obedience
from the Amyrlin Seat.
I did what you asked.
I stayed in the Tower
as long as I could.
You miss it there, don't you?
Miss feeling like
you're important.
[scoffs]
You ask something else of me?
What are you doing in Tanchico?
It's my home, Mistress.
Are you working for him?
Who?
Rahvin.
Ah.
I didn't know he held
sway in the Black Ajah.
All of us were
loyal to Ishamael.
But he's dead now I hear.
[gasps, panting]
If you think to play
us against one another,
know it is a dangerous
game, Liandrin.
My cabal are loyal to me
and I am loyal to you.
Ask anything of me,
Mistress. [breathing shakily]
[whimpers]
Five sisters sworn to the Shadow is too
fine a prize for the others to overlook.
Rahvin will have
gotten to one of you.
Someone who thinks she's
cleverer than she actually is.
I would've assumed it was you.
And what shall I
do when I have her?
Kill her.
Or next time I visit your
dreams, you'll wish you had.
- [breathes shakily]
- You have until tomorrow.
[sighs]
[spits]
[door opens]
[Liandrin] So,
I'm going to show you something now
the Chosen would prefer you didn't see.
This is the Shackled Man.
A statue older than
Tanchico itself,
but only part of it still
stands at the docks.
It's a man who can channel.
Collared by two Aes Sedai.
The sisters who found this bracelet
confirm the second one and the collar
are in the city but
they never knew where.
We have one part of three.
So, dig harder.
Search further.
I need the collar and the
second bracelet tomorrow.
Or our master will
be displeased.
[ominous music plays]
[Elayne] And the Blue sister?
Ispan Shefar.
Dark haired, with
a white stripe.
From Saldaea?
No, that's Jeaine
Caide. Of the Green.
What does it matter?
If we find Liandrin,
we find them all.
We're not here to find
Liandrin, Nynaeve.
We're here to find
the Black Ajah.
More importantly, the collar.
If any of them get to it
before we do, then Rand
No. We'll find it.
Are you sure about this veil?
- [knocking on door]
- [Mat] Ladies. Ready?
[both laughing]
It's the custom.
- Men too.
- Yeah, you might want to take it easy
- on those beads.
- [Nynaeve] What?
[Min] The number of
beads tell your price.
[Mat] I admire the confidence,
but I think this might
be a bit more apt.
Whatever the Black Ajah are doing,
they won't be doing it lawfully.
They'll need thieves,
smugglers, criminals.
[Nynaeve] So we'll go
to the Night Market.
Mat, you find a card game, start talking
to people and see what you can find out.
And, Min, you'll
use your visions.
Nynaeve and I will handle anything
that requires a bit more subtlety.
Is she always like this?
Oh, yeah. Both of them.
[people shouting, chattering]
[dramatic music plays]
[Bair] You promised not to
enter Tel'aran'rhiod without us.
An Aes Sedai cannot lie.
Well, I'm not an Aes Sedai.
I lied about that too.
Look, I need to know how to
stop her in Tel'aran'rhiod.
You cannot hope to match the
Shadowsouled in Tel'aran'rhiod.
But in your own dreams
That is where your
power is strongest.
There, we have the
spear's edge of a chance.
[sighs]
You've been hiding from me.
You're afraid of me now.
What did you see in Rhuidean?
What do you want?
You're supposed to keep
Egwene away from him.
[Moiraine] I am.
She won't budge if forced.
I worry that you're trying to stay useful
to me so that I don't dispose of you.
I'm sending a little surprise.
Let him handle it.
I know that's difficult for you.
[Rand] Where are we going?
I was looking for Egwene.
[Aviendha] She's studying with the
Wise Ones, learning about our people,
- as you should.
- [people chattering]
[sighing] Oh.
Hmm. So this is how you
grow food in the desert.
Mmm. This overhang keeps
the rocks in shade all day,
so the water doesn't dry out.
We know more than just
how to dance the spears.
- Alsera?
- Rand al'Thor!
These are my squashes.
- You see how fat they get?
- Mmm.
Wow. You're taking
very good care of them.
- I know.
- I didn't realize Aiel
were such good farmers.
And good shepherds too, from the
taste of that goat yesterday.
[Alsera] My sister takes care of
the goats. She's the goatherd.
But what do shepherds
take care of?
- Sheps?
- [chuckles]
Something like that.
We can do some work together.
- What's this? Is this your shovel?
- No!
That's my spear. I'm
training to become a Maiden.
You cannot touch it.
You dishonor me, Rand al'Thor.
For dishonoring your
ji, you have my toh.
You will harvest my
garden when they are ripe.
Only then will your toh
be repaid, Rand al'Thor.
Mm-hmm.
[chuckles]
- I could have used your help there.
- Mmm.
You handled yourself
well enough, wetlander.
Well enough.
[villagers clamoring]
[villager] Perrin's
hurt! Help him down.
[Faile] Get him inside. Now.
[Perrin grunting, panting]
[winces, grunts]
- [Marin] What happened?
- [Faile] He's been stabbed.
[Perrin panting]
[Loial] Get Alanna Sedai.
Quickly. He requires healing.
- [Perrin panting, grunting]
- You'll be all right. You'll be fine.
Hurry! We need her.
I'm afraid she's in no
shape to heal anyone.
[Alanna panting, groaning]
[wincing, groaning]
[healer] This poultice will help
ease the pain and slow the infection.
[Perrin] The girls are here?
But Natti
[Faile] My father,
he always said a leader can
either take care of the living
or weep for the dead.
Not both.
[panting]
[whistling]
[whistling continues]
[crowd cheers]
What's a man to do to get
a peek behind that veil?
The best secret to reveal
- is the face behind a lady's veil
- I know it's deadly
as that of an
Illuminator's spark.
I bet the River Andahar
that you don't know a thing about
getting a woman to take off her veil.
- You speak like a true Taraboner.
- Why wouldn't I?
Hailing from the
Calpene as I do.
Well, I'm just not sure that
this is the right piece for me,
but have you got any jewelry?
Like, uh, a little collar?
To match that bracelet
I told you about.
Something about here.
For you? Or a lady friend?
Oh, right. This
would be for a man.
Big strong man such as myself.
[chuckles]
A little silver number.
I'll tell you what
I will give you a taste of this, if
you can find me something like that.

Oh, come on!
Thom bloody Merrilin!
- No.
- No, Thom. Thom.
Thom, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait.
It's me. Remember?
I-I'm Mat Cauthon.
- Come on, you remember.
- How could I forget?
You left me for dead
fighting a bloody Fade.
Yes. Yes, that was me.
And you're not dead.
God! Look at you,
you look great!
- Oh, hey, hey, hey. Oh.
- [chuckles]
Whatever you and your redheaded
friend are wrapped up in,
I want nothing to do with it.
It already cost
me too much, yeah?
Thom, Thom. Wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
God, what was it
that you taught me?
The best life lessons,
they often cost the most.
Come on.
Come for a drink. On me.
- [chuckles]
- I'll tell you what. If you're lucky,
I might tell you who
blew the Horn of Valere.
- So Mat, these memories in his head
- Are his business and mine.
[Min] So glad we got
this time together.
- You're scowling.
- I'm not.
You are. It's suspicious.
Well, that's just my face.
You really would make
a great Aes Sedai.
Opportunity missed.
There you go.
[Min] There you are.
- You're not drinking?
- They're both for you.
You need to loosen up.
Let your braid down.
[gagging]
[chuckles]
[groans, coughing]
Thank you.
- All right?
- Mmm.
- So
- Mm-hmm?
How do your visions work then?
Do you just see people's futures
all around this bar right now?
Some. Occasionally.
Usually when I least want to.
And times like these, when
I actually need them
they're nowhere to be found.
And you're okay with that?
Took most of my life to realize I
don't have much choice in the matter.
[crowd chattering fades]
[people screaming]
Hey!
- You!
- What do you want?
[Min] You met a beautiful
woman, didn't you?
That dark hair with white
stripe running through it?
Loves to wear a bit of green.
- How did you know?
- You're gonna marry her.
I can see it in the Pattern.
- Well, best run and tell her right away.
- But I don't even know her. [scoffs]
I just see her in
the city center.
Suppose she's doing some work
on the old Lounalt estate.
Mmm, right. So she's rich too.
Good job, you.
Right, so, that one was on me
but if you have any other friends who
want to know what the future holds,
you know where I am.
Jeaine Caide marries that man?
No. She kills him.
[door opens]
- Yes?
- I saw the child bride today.
[scoffs] Whatever you did to
her mind, it was thorough.
She seems
content.
In my experience, the happiest
people are those that know the least.
Do you think you would be able
to weave something more precise?
Something you'd rather
not remember, sister?
In the Age of Legends perhaps.
Now, only the Forsaken
themselves could do it.
[Moghedien] Good
evening, mistress.
[quirky music plays]
[groans]
[inhales sharply]
[grunting]
[gags, spits]
Mmm.
Try again, Egwene. Push me out.
- [groans] I can't.
- Again.
- Your dream is your domain, Egwene.
- [panting] Nothing's working.
See it clearly in your
mind, and then make it so.
Will it so.
- Again.
- [sighs]
[sighs]
[all breathe deeply]
[inhales deeply]
[grunts]
[gasps, chuckles]
[chuckles]
No, no, no, no, no. [gasps]
[grunting, panting]
[foreboding music plays]
Egwene.
Now, let's be honest.
Woman to woman.
Did you like what
you saw last night,
or did you prefer him when
he was just a shepherd boy?
Rand doesn't know what you are.
Oh, he does.
You know that.
If Rand knew you'd
laid your hands on
[grunts, gasps]
Oh, he knows everything.
[grunts]
[chiming sound]
- [Egwene grunts]
- She threw us out.
- We couldn't get back in.
- Look at me, Egwene.
- [panting]
- Look at me.
In the dream, the power's yours.
What you believe,
that's what is.
If you believe you are more
powerful than her, then you are.
If you believe she can't
hurt you, she can't.
Do you understand me?
Let's try again.
[sighs]
You haven't spoken
to me since Rhuidean.
I've been listening.
[chuckles]
What did you see in
the rings, Moiraine?
Do I go mad?
Sometimes.
Do I kill Egwene?
Sometimes.
Do I kill you?
Sometimes.
I thought we were supposed to
come out knowing more, not less.
I do. I do know more.
Do you?
I do.
I know what that is.
The Sakarnen.
How do you handle so much of
the power, when you hold it?
What do you mean?
[breathes shakily] I feel
as if it's drowning me.
I feel as if, when I
submit to it fully,
I'm going to be washed away entirely
and nothing's going to be left.
Don't submit.
[emotional music plays]
Saidin and saidar
are not the same.
- The male hal
- It's the One Power.
If the Aiel and the Forsaken
have taught me anything,
it's that the Aes Sedai don't
know everything about it.
See, if I stopped fighting it,
even for a second, I'd be gone.
It's just always there.
Even now.
[breathes shakily] It's
It's calling me. Pulling at me.
Sometimes I
I can't stop myself from
[inhales sharply]
reaching out for it.
[whispers] Rand.
[normal voice] Rand.
Rand.
[Rand breathing shakily]
Don't submit.
[Faile] You're looking well.
Those mountain herbs are strong.
It's a special place,
your Two Rivers.
Yes. It is.
You never talk about
where you're from.
No. I don't.
From Saldaea.
Military family.
Both my parents were generals, and
my brother and I were soldiers.
My brother
You'd have liked him.
What happened to him?
My mother
Still can't believe it, really.
She sat me down last year and
told me she was a Darkfriend.
Told me she wanted me
to swear the oaths too.
I knew that if I stayed, and
I didn't do it, I'd be dead.
[sighs] I'd always idolized her.
I don't know. I guess I was worried
that if I stayed, I might
But you left.
That night
To join the Hunt
- But your brother he
- I never should've told him about her.
He was brave and good.
I should've known
he'd try to stop her.
[breathes shakily]
She killed him.
Her own son.
I ran off, and my
brother paid the price.
I know the feeling.
You couldn't possibly.
[inhales shakily, sighs]
My wife, Laila, um
The first time
the Trollocs came,
we hadn't fought anything off
before, let alone monsters.
[breathes shakily]
I was trying to protect her.
It was an accident, but I
It was me.
[breathes shakily]
I killed her.
She chose to fight.
Did she fight well?
She did.
Don't take away her honor,
still mourning her so long.
Take care of the living, right?
I always think to myself that
That it still means something
that I didn't swear the oaths.
There's so much darkness
in this world, Faile,
but, when I look at you
all I see is light.
[breathing heavily]
- [horse whinnying]
- [villager shouts]
[villagers chattering]
- [horn blows]
- [villagers clamoring]
[Valda] Our reinforcements
have arrived.
What happened to you?
Oh.
Ran into some trouble
with some Trollocs.
Nothing we couldn't
handle, of course.
Now, I hear you're having some trouble
with the kindly folk of the Two Rivers.
Well, maybe I can
help with that.
- [metal stabbing]
- [person screams]
So your wool-headed friend
- is the bloody Dragon Reborn.
- [Mat] Mm-hmm.
- And you're the blasted Hornblower?
- [spits]
[in Old Tongue] Listen, I wouldn't
believe it myself if I hadn't
- [in English] And you learned Old Tongue?
- Oh, shit. Uh
- Yeah, yeah, I suppose I have.
- You boys are pulling at the Pattern,
or the Pattern's pulling on you.
Either way, what I
said before holds.
I don't want any part of it.
Any part of it.
Thom, just wait.
[stammers, sighs]
We could really use your help.
- I'm not getting involved.
- We're looking for
- an Aes Sedai called Liandrin.
- I do not care.
- Liandrin Guirale?
- Yes.
You stay away from
that one, boy.
- [chuckles]
- [patron 1] There's
What is the Daughter-Heir
of Andor doing here?
Thom, you know
Y-You know who she is?
I was at her mother's
court a long time ago.
I'm gonna go.
T-Thom.
You shouldn't drink if you
can't hold your liquor.
I'm not so drunk I can't see the
Daughter-Heir of bloody Andor before me.
- [Mat] Mate.
- [Elayne] You're a goat-kissing fool
if you think that the
Daughter-Heir of bloody Andor
- would be here with the likes of you.
- Where in Light's name have been,
you lazy chit?
- Lazy Who do you think?
- Serves me right
for hiring a drunk
as an apprentice.
Has she been doing her
Daughter-Heir of Andor bit again?
Last time two men tried to ransom
her, she took the money for herself.
Came back with enough coin to buy
a boat, and then drank it all away.
As she does.
A gleeman's apprentice.
Then, have us a song.
[panting]
Fine. Yes, well,
the song everyone in our fine city knows
would have to be "The Hills of Tanchico."
"The Hills of" Are you sure?
Do you know it or
don't you, old man?
Old man?
I do.
[sighs] Well, go on then.
Hey.
I'll tell you a
tale of a lad of 20 ♪
[scoffs]
A Tarabon boy

[bartender] Get off. Stay away.
[chuckling]
You know I have to
admit, I think
I think I might be
having a good time.
For the first time in
a I don't remember.
[chuckles] Relaxation
looks good on you.
Better than this veil?
Nynaeve al'Meara,
was that a joke?
- I think it was. [chuckling]
- [chuckling]
- Mmm. There it goes.
- Sorry. It's just
It's just this city.
Do you think it's what
made her who she is?
- Liandrin?
- [patron] Did you say Liandrin?
[Nynaeve] Do you know her?
Well, anyone my age would.
- Have you seen her?
- [patron] Oh, well I haven't,
but the whole Lounalt Clan was
wiped out a few weeks back.
And there's a rumor that
Liandrin herself did it.
Her ghost.
Why don't I buy you a round,
and you tell me all about her?
[gasps]
Sorry. Did I wake you?
You're shielded.
What are you doing?
Oh, I've been experimenting.
With your weaves.
Do you think I can get the
information out of you that way?
I know you found something.
I-I was going to tell you.
Go on.
The collar is in the
Panarch's palace.
Where?
I don't know exactly,
but once we get in
there we'll find it.
I have powerful allies.
I know you do.
But I don't need any of
the Chosen to help me.
Because I'm going to
become one of them.
[stammers] No. No!
[screams]
Ispan.
Good. You're back.
- Mmm.
- [Liandrin] Now,
what did you find?
[sighs]
[thunder rumbling]
[breathes heavily] Maksim
- It's time.
- No.
No, Alanna.
I'm not letting you go.
- [sighs]
- You're all I have left.
[door opens]
We heard Alanna Sedai got
hurt trying to save us.
We wanted to thank her.
She did. [sniffles]
Um.
Come here.
Alanna, here. Look.
You love getting thanked, huh?
She's still hurt.
I thought Aes Sedai could heal.
Others, yes
but not themselves.
Can you
Can you channel?
Girls.
[breathing heavily]
C-Close your eyes.
Picture a flower
bud in your mind
only that you can see it,
feel it
every vein of every leaf
You are the bud.
Now
open
[Alanna gasps]
Good.
Picture the wounds sealing
like knitting wool.
Blood to blood,
bone to bone,
muscle to
[gasps]
[exhales sharply]
[chuckles]
I told you so.
[chuckles]
I told you there were
channelers in these mountains.
[Faile] So [sighs]
I have to know.
Your eyes, why are they so gold?
I'm something called
a wolfbrother.
I understand them,
and they understand me.
You don't find it strange?
I do.
But I don't mind strange.
Your turn.
The hunt for the Horn,
just an excuse to get
away from Saldaea,
or are you actually
serious about it?
Course I'm serious about it.
- I'm going to find it too.
- [chuckles]
- What's so funny?
- Um.
Sorry.
I can't let this go on.
[grunts] Pass me that.
I meant to give it to
his sisters, but
You see, that is my
friend Mat Cauthon,
and that
Is the Horn of Valere?
Yes.
The actual Horn of Valere?
Yes.
And that's your friend?
Mat.
Blowing the Horn?
Mm-hmm.
Your friend found
the Horn and blew it?
Yeah.
- And you're only telling me now?
- There was never a good time.
You let me go on and on about
that Light-blasted Horn
Perrin Aybara.
That's not fair.
[emotional music plays]
[Alanna] I'm sorry
for interrupting.
- [chuckles]
- Heard you needed some healing.
[chuckles]
- Oh.
- [people chattering]
- Whoa.
- [chuckling]
Watch out.
Oh. Look at that.
- That's really pretty.
- [exclaims]

- Old friend.
- Friend?
Oh, well, yeah.
You just saved Elayne from
the pointy side of a blade.
I was blending in.
[all chuckle]
Anyway, did you find anything?
Yeah.
We know where
Liandrin's staying.
The old Lounalt manor.
Apparently she painted the
place red a few weeks back.
[chuckles]
[Mat] Coming?
Oh. [laughs] Nothi
S-sorry. You
I didn't find your collar,
but I found the bracelet like
the picture you showed me.
Wha What Where
did you get that?
- You're working at the Lounalt's?
- No.
My dad runs a shop
down the old docks.
He's always piling stuff up.
Said one day some of it
would be worth something.
Yeah. Well, today
is your lucky day.
Here. Take this.
Thank you.
I'm sorry. Um Here.
[Elayne] Is that
the second bracelet?
Are there two collars as well?
For being such an expert
in Tarabon history,
I'm surprised you don't know about
the Shackled Man of Tanchico.
A statue down at the docks.
Only the man remains, but it used to
show two women wearing those bracelets,
him on his knees, and a
collar round his neck.
[inhales]
Who are you waiting for?
Sammael?
He'll do something soon.
I know it.
So impatient.
Or is it Rahvin?
Didn't he tell you it was dangerous,
here in the world of dreams?
Wait.
You're
Who are you?
I'm nothing.
Just a spider you wipe off your
skirt and never think about again.
So, go on.
Tell me what you
came to tell Rahvin,
and I'll report straightaway.
[Ispan breathing heavily]
[groaning]
It's Liandrin.
[stammers] Sh-She
found out about Nyomi.
S-She killed her.
Sh-Sh-She wants to
become a Forsaken.
And two of the five the Dark
One's hunting are in Tanchico.
[screaming]
[shrieks]
[gasps]
So, tomorrow we wait
outside the Lounalt estate.
And watch where
Liandrin goes next.
[chuckles]
Oh, sorry. Um, we
don't need anything.
Thank you.
But I do.
Come here by the light,
where I can see
you both clearly.
No more than girls,
and barely trained.
Strong through, both of you.
You especially.
[Nynaeve, Elayne giggling]
You've blocked yourself.
Why?
I'm afraid of it.
My power.
All that power, I
I hate it, I think.
Oh.
[sighs]
[sighs]
In my time,
we would've beaten
that out of you.
No matter.
It serves me for the time being.
[sighs]
Come, sit.
Are there any other
Aes Sedai with you?
It's just us.
And we're not Aes Sedai.
We're Accepted.
Ah.
There was no one else that Amyrlin could
trust to find Liandrin and the Black Ajah.
- Oh.
- [Nynaeve chuckles]
And what have you
found out so far?
Their names.
Their names?
- [Elayne] Ispan Shefar
- Ah.
Jeaine Caide, Nyomi
I know their names. Do you
know what they're looking for?
[chuckling]
A Seanchan collar.
[gasps]
[Nynaeve] But this
one is for a man.
The Dragon Reborn, we think.
- [gasps]
- We can't let her collar Rand.
- No.
- [Nynaeve] Mmm.
Do you know where he is?
The Dragon?
- [Nynaeve] No
- [gasps]
but we'd tell you if we did.
[Elayne] Yes.
Yeah.
Have you found out anything else
about this bracelet or collar?
- Huh?
- [chuckles]
- We found the second bracelet today.
- [Elayne giggles]
- Did you? [gasps]
- [Nynaeve giggles]
Clever girls.
[both chuckle]
Go on. Fetch it for me.
[sighs]
[Moghedien, Nynaeve chuckling]
[exhales sharply]
[gasps]
You're fighting me.
- Mmm.
- [gasps, chuckles]
[Nynaeve, Elayne chuckling]
[grunts]
You should be proud.
You did what the
Black Ajah could not.
Now,
Rahvin wants you dead.
My Gray Men have tried
twice and missed,
but I like it when he
doesn't get what he wants.
[Nynaeve, Elayne chuckle]
And you
You've both proven yourself to
be very useful to me tonight.
- Maybe I'll come back
- Mm-hmm.
see you again.
That would make us very happy.
- [Elayne] Yeah.
- Yeah.
And you'll let me do
whatever I want to you?
Obey my every command?
Good girl.
[sinister music plays]
[sighs]
[all chuckling]
You will remember nothing
that happened here
Except that I came
knocking on the wrong door,
then went on my way.
The wrong door, of course.
[Nynaeve] Mmm.
What were we
talking about again?
Um
I don't remember.
We were on
the bed, I think, and then we
Um
Wait.
- There was a woman.
- Mmm.
She had the wrong room and
She left.
I think.
Oh, my head is throbbing.
[inhales sharply]
Maybe we had too much to drink?
Mmm.
We should put the
bracelet in a safe place.
Elayne?
The bracelet.
Where is it?
Nynaeve [gasps] your face.
[breathing heavily]
Egwene?
She's a
She's a Forsaken, Rand.
I should've told you.
I'm sorry.
Sorry for what, exactly?
[inhales sharply]
For lying to me?
[sobs] For betraying my trust?
Or for sleeping with a Forsaken?
How could you be such a fool?
There's so much that
you don't understand.
- Oh.
- About me.
About all of this.
I wish you could.
Understand?
We came to the Waste
to escape them.
And this whole time,
every night,
you're with her.
[sobs] I came here for you.
You met the Wise Ones, and you
haven't given me a second thought.
That's what you do,
and that's what
you've always done.
Do you love her? [sobs]
[sniffles]
It's already happened then?
The madness.
[chuckles, sniffs]
If that's easier for you to
swallow, then believe that.
We both know the truth, Egwene.
You don't want me.
Even back in the Two Rivers.
There was always something
that you wanted more.
And even now.
I am
the Dragon Reborn.
[sighs]
I'm not enough.
[emotional music plays]
I'll always respect
that about you.
[sniffles]
Did you know
what she was doing to
me this whole time?
Wha
- What are you talking about?
- Don't lie to me, Rand.
Don't lie to me.
Egwene,
I don't know what
you're talking about.
My dreams
Where the sul'dam tortured me
It was your Lanfear
It's been her this whole time.
[Egwene breathing heavily]
I didn't know.
[both grunt]
[grunts]
[groans]
[hooting]
[clamoring]
[gasps]
You've gotten soft, Lews Therin.
[grunts]
[screams]
[exclaims]
[Aviendha yells]
[Rand] Get out.
Get out. Get out!
[shouting]
[coughing]
[groaning, grunting]
Alsera.
She was upstairs.
[Egwene coughs]
[Rand] Alsera?
[Rand breathing heavily]
Alsera.
Hey, Alsera.
[sobs] Alsera.
Alsera?
Life is a dream from
which we all must wake.
No.
No. [cries]
[sniffles] Breathe.
Breathe.
[Rand breathing heavily]
Breathe.
Breathe!
Rand Rand, you can't. She-she's
dead. Death can't be healed.
I can do anything!
What does the prophecy say?
[sobbing] What does
the prophecy
[chuckling]
I bring destruction.
But also creation.
Breathe now, Alsera.
Breathe.
Breathe.
- Alsera, breathe.
- Rand.
[Rand] Breathe.
Rand, you cannot do this.
Rand.
[sighs]
[emotional music plays]
[gasps]
[soldiers shouting]
There must be hundreds.
[Faile] This isn't
a raiding party.
This is an army.
Soon, Goldeneyes will have
to lead his people to war.
Whether he wants to or not.
