The Magicians (2016) s03e10 Episode Script

1 I'm a librarian.
Currently on the lam from a billion year contract.
- Sylvia, what'd you do? - I'm sorry.
- Just let me see it again.
- No.
Not till you tell me what you were doing in the Library.
I'm stuck in the Fairy Realm.
How can I see you? Let's you see into other worlds, it's rad.
You're the absolute worst rulers Fillory has ever had.
Honey, you don't have to listen to Tick.
You can just do your own thing.
Turn around, head home, relax, whatevs.
It's the excretion of a very rare magical creature.
This magic.
I mean, it looks different.
It feels different.
Oh, God, they cut off her leg.
You clean their homes.
You cook their food.
And they take your leg and grind it into powder to snort so they can do magic tricks.
I wanna help you get out of here.
[NECKLACES FLUTTERS.]
The necklace.
It kills them when they use magic.
[PHONE LINE RINGING.]
So you're just okay with letting Kady - take the Fifth Key, huh? - I'm not letting her do anything.
But when I ask you about the book, you freak out.
Hey, Kady, I Please leave a message at the tone.
[LINE BEEPS.]
Hey, uh, it's Quentin.
Call me back, please.
Look, she probably took it because Because you trust a heroin addict more than you trust me.
At least I know what Kady wants.
What does that mean? She wants to talk to Penny.
But you, I don't First, you don't wanna help us with the Quest.
Then, suddenly, you want magic so badly - that you nearly kill yourself.
- That's not fair.
None of that is fair.
Okay, well, then what is it? Do you Are you with us? Do you want magic back? Of course I want magic.
Okay, well, then what changed? Why now? As opposed to when, huh? When you asked me if I wanted to go on a Quest five minutes after my dad died? Would you be ready to go on a fucking adventure? - Alice, I'm just - You know, and are you the only one who's allowed to be ambivalent and depressive and And scared and hate themselves? But I just have to be sure of everything, huh? Fuck you, Quentin.
Uh, s sorry.
I was just trying to get through.
Sorry.
We can fight about this after the Quest.
Just let me see the stupid book.
Whoa.
There's something she's not telling me.
You really think it was a good idea to give her the book? I don't know.
She helped us with the last key.
And we're probably gonna need her for the next one, so [SOLEMN MUSIC.]
The book says that the Sixth Key is in the Throne Room at Whitespire.
Oh, shit.
Wait, that's where Margo and Eliot Just got overthrown violently? Yeah.
Oh.
[SIGHS.]
I need an aspirin.
Whoa.
Thank you.
[CHUCKLES.]
I'll never take magic for granted again.
[CHUCKLES.]
Yeah.
Me neither.
Uh, look, there's something I have to finish here before I can leave.
I can't go knowing that the fairies are Jules, do what you gotta do.
- Just be careful, okay? - Yeah.
You too.
Okay, so Skye's telling the others what happened to her.
And that we wanna help them escape.
But that can't happen until we get their necklaces off.
- Oh.
- [LAUGHS.]
There's an emoji of a dagger.
Todd was right, this truly is the universal language.
I need you to focus.
I can't find anything on these necklaces, and I need to know how they work.
Can't you see I'm busy? Fen.
Look, I know what the fairies did to you in Fillory was fucked up.
And I'm sorry about that, but - Yeah - [CELL PHONE BEEPS.]
- That's my response.
- [CELL PHONE DINGS.]
Is that a gif of a crab with a knife? It's how I feel.
Is it "gif" or "jif?" Please.
I need your help.
Fairies just make my skin crawl.
Okay, and how does slavery make you feel? So what you're saying is that you want a fairy necklace - to examine? - Yes.
One that isn't already attached to a fairy's neck.
Fine, but don't expect me to pretend like I don't hate fairies.
You don't have to.
We know about your fairies.
There's one standing right there.
[WHIMSICAL MUSIC.]
Fen's family had a problem with them, so I'm trying to help fix it.
I hate them.
Their black eyes.
Their long fingers.
Their mushrooms.
Mushrooms? They make the air thick and musty, like a bear's undercarriage.
And what was the deal that you made with these fairies? Oh, I didn't make a deal.
- One was made for me by - By her family.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
See, uh, they were tricked.
Interesting.
And here I thought that the fairies under my protection were the last of their kind.
[SIGHS.]
I wish.
- They're everywhere in Fil - Fillmore.
Fillmore.
It's, um it's a small farming town in the Midwest.
And what about you, Julia? How is it that you can see them? I made a deal with a younger fairy.
Visibility for a Snickers bar.
And just how young was this fairy? I don't know, actually.
Still trying to catch one.
Which which is why we wanted to ask you, how are the ones here, you know, so docile? Well, I assume that you've noticed that, uh, all of my fairies have this silver collar.
You mean, their necklace? [CHUCKLES.]
Necklaces, yeah.
They are cute, aren't they? They're to help keep things from getting out of control.
You'll need one.
You can get it from my Uncle Edwin.
But I'm gonna need something in return.
Of course.
If your rash is back I'll need you to bring me a fairy.
[WHIMSICAL MUSIC.]
[EXHALES DEEPLY.]
Penny, during orientation, weren't you trained on how to properly re-shelve? We got a billion years, Howard.
Just keeping shit interesting.
So, uh, Penny.
My book club is looking for new members.
Interesting people.
And I thought of you.
Why? 'Cause I'm brown? And shackled? You know this looks bad for the Library, right? Oh, no.
We are not We shackle people of all races and colors here.
Not better, Howard.
What I meant was - I read your book.
- The hell? I had unresolved feelings about my death and your hand in it.
You killed yourself.
Am I misremembering the part where you handed me the cursed book that directly led to that? So the least you can do is join my book club.
Kathy always brings cupcakes.
- They're amazing.
- Fuck off, Howard.
Participation helps ease the transition, Penny.
Give it a think.
Fasten it around the neck to activate it.
Then it will instantly kill a fairy if they use magic.
Should deter them from even trying.
Of course, you have to actually catch a fairy first.
Oh, I'm sure I'll figure something out.
So, how does it work? I mean, what's it powered by? Considering there's That would be a family secret.
Okay.
Uh, but once it's on, how will I know it's secure? Has a fairy ever broken out of one? [SNICKERS.]
Dust.
This is Dust.
I've had him since I was 16.
But he's been in the family much longer.
How long? Over 400 years, sir.
He may not look it, but he's our oldest Fairy.
Tell Irene her guest has a collar.
Yes, sir.
There's really only one way to take them off.
I have a machine that does it.
So don't worry, they're secure.
- Great.
- [SNAPS CASE SHUT.]
Thank you so much for all your help.
[OMINOUS MUSIC.]
- Today is not my day.
- I get that you're mad, okay? - But just hear me out.
- You turned me in, Sylvia.
Look, when magic went out, shit got really bad up there for my family, okay? My my brothers, my my uncles, my dad, - they all got whacked.
- And went where? To the Underworld? Where you are? All my people are up there, Sylvia.
I can't travel, I can't astral project, I can't do shit 'cause of you.
My family isn't in the Underworld, Penny.
They moved on.
To where? I mean, I'm not sure.
The Underworld is just a way station, really.
You hang around for a bit, and then the bureaucracies that be move you on.
But I don't know what or where that is.
So your family just left you? Yeah, Dad's always sucked at waiting, so he pulled some strings and cut the line.
But these contracts that we sign with the Library are fucking ironclad, so I can't go anywhere until I finish my billion years.
When the Library put a bounty on you, it brought me a million years closer to my family, Penny.
And I'm sorry.
I know that that doesn't fix anything Yeah, you're right.
It fixes shit.
I spoke to a few of the others.
They don't believe me.
If I hadn't done the magic, if I hadn't felt what happened, I don't think I would believe me either.
Okay, Skye.
You've got to keep trying.
How? What should I say? Look, I don't know, but I found a way to take off the collars.
Edwin's got a machine in the Lab.
It won't matter.
They're scared.
The thought of escape is like a death wish.
But There is one more thing.
Several of Ms.
Irene's family have arrived.
Many of them brought their fairies.
To Brakebills? Why? I don't know.
Skye.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
[EXHALES DEEPLY.]
If Skye can't convince them to run, what are we gonna do? We introduce them to someone scarier.
[WHIMSICAL MUSIC.]
I'm on a flying boat! Okay, so the Sixth Key is in the Throne Room? Where Tick's waiting with a serrated spoon to just saw off our heads? Tick isn't at Whitespire, though.
He's up north, near Loria.
The Throne Room is empty, but we need to move fast.
So the book says that the Sixth Key will only reveal itself in the light of two half moons, which is a thing that happens in Fillory.
Like two black and white cookies split apart to form one giant white cookie.
A cookie moon.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, anyway, so it it's gonna be super bright, um, and it happens tonight, so Wait, why is Tick up near Loria? - Fillory's at war.
- What? The fuck? I know, we are literally Questing through a war-torn country.
So epic.
And who exactly are we at war with? The Lorians and the Floaters.
Yeah, we heard about it when we were passing through town.
That cock's High King for three seconds - and it all goes to shit.
- I need to send a Bunny to Idri.
Yeah, I'll send one to that Stone bitch.
Wait, what about the key? Q, you just told us, Fillory is being spit-roasted by invading forces.
Without us.
Okay, can I say something obvious, yet potentially controversial? We are no longer the Kings and Queens of Fillory.
Says who? Fillory, when they overthrew you.
- Mm - Well, they were misguided, and scared, and they needed scapegoats.
At some point, you either have to choose to follow through on something, or just, well, die.
Look, we chose this.
You captain the Key Quest, Coldwater, and we'll stop war.
Ooh, ooh, can you drop us off at Whitespire after it gets dark? They have that balcony.
We could just rappel down into the Throne Room.
It would be dope.
Get ready to tuck and roll, bitches, 'cause this boat don't do complete stops.
Yes, once fairies lived on Earth.
But not in hundreds of years.
Not since we fled to Fillory because human Magicians nearly hunted us into extinction.
I had no idea.
Of course not.
Short memory is a privilege of the oppressor.
[OMINOUS MUSIC.]
I'm sorry.
So you'll understand my disbelief then when a human tries to lure me to Earth with tales of a lost tribe that can't exist.
- But they're not - I've heard enough.
Wait.
You're not listening.
I'd rather remove your tongue.
Maybe your teeth.
- You choose.
- Go ahead.
You have already taken so much from me.
What's a few teeth? You've got two sentences.
Choose wisely.
I hate fairies.
So why would I come here, to a place where you stole my toes and I lost my child, if it wasn't true? Then why would you do this for me? It's not for you.
- It's for them.
- They're still fairies.
But they're nothing like you.
They're more like traumatized children.
And as a mother, despite what you did to me, they deserve a chance to live.
So get off your Whatever it is fairies have for rear butts, and do something.
They need their Queen.
[CHAIN RATTLING.]
[OMINOUS MUSIC.]
[SIGHS.]
[SOBBING.]
What part of the Library is "Secrets Taken to the Grave"? Oh, so now you're talking to me? I'm I'm kidding.
Chill.
Uh, it's some weird research division that the Library made in partnership with the people who run the Underworld.
Librarians like us aren't even allowed to go in there.
[SOBBING.]
What the hell do they do to these people? Oh, it's like primal therapy for people who are about to move on.
You go and unload your bullshit and it lightens your conscience.
I'm sure my dad's was a nightmare.
This is all part of that "Underworld is a way station" shit? Yeah, they, like, jot down everything of note, and then at the end you get a metro card out of here.
You're telling me there's a subway out of the Underworld? Well, it's more like this giant, long, pig-type creature that you, like, climb into, and then it takes you wherever you need to go next.
Why the hell are we still here? Why haven't we hijacked that long pig? Because it only shows up when somebody has a metro card and is ready to move on.
[WOMAN CONTINUES SOBBING.]
Our contracts will never let us move on.
Nobody's ever gonna give us metro cards, Penny.
Not like them.
Okay, so in this chapter the Daughter, she finally becomes the Knight that she set out to be, and right after she's knighted, her shield catches a moonbeam and it reflects it back.
[GLASS SHATTERS.]
- What're you doing? - Guys, guys.
Reminder, there are still guards patrolling around, so The book says the moonlight has to hit three keystones to reveal the key.
There's three doors, three keystones, and none of them are near a window.
Okay, so we set up some mirrors, and bounce around some moonlight, and then we're back on track? Enjoying the Quest? - Yeah, if that's what the book says.
- Ou know it does.
Hey.
Look, it's a perfect metaphor for your relationship.
[CHUCKLES.]
Not ready to laugh Yet, that's fine.
You want me to put on a slave collar? It's the only way we can get you in direct contact with Irene's fairies.
Or I could just cut off all the McAllistairs' heads.
For all we know, the McAllistairs can trigger the collars remotely.
And just like that [SNAPS FINGERS.]
Every collared fairy will be dead.
We need to be stealth.
Smart.
Tell me, what's smart about rendering myself defenseless and then entrusting my life to a powerless Magician? [FOREBODING MUSIC.]
You're god-touched.
That's one way to put it.
But it also means I can protect you.
It doesn't mean that I trust you.
I get it.
For good reason.
Why would you trust any human on Earth? But Fen and I are risking our lives.
So we need you to trust us.
Or don't.
And we can just do this on our own.
Without you.
She's right.
I'm not sure how, but we will find a way.
What is it that you want from us? Not sure I understand.
She's healing a mother's wound, but you Why go so far, Julia? Let's just say being god-touched is a mixed bag.
But I choose to do something with that.
It means something.
Helping those fairies, saving them, with you.
And this collar.
[SIGHS.]
This had better work.
She really is stunning.
How many more of them are there? Hard to say, really.
They're not all that friendly.
And where did you say your friend is from again? - The Midwest.
- No, I mean what town is she [CELL PHONE RINGS.]
Huh, excuse me.
Fairly well-behaved, actually, considering she's feral.
Guess I got lucky, huh? Uh, that's a much faster turnaround than we agreed on.
[SNAPS FINGERS.]
You know what, it'll be a push, but I think I can get it to you all by then.
The others will take some convincing Looks like we're working through dinner.
You know what to do with her.
especially if time is against us.
My apologies, I'm having family over for dinner.
But we'll talk later? About the other fairies? Of course.
- [CELL PHONE VIBRATING.]
- - - [WHISPERING.]
Shit.
It's true.
What Julia said.
You're real.
You're a queen.
She's a queen.
Of the free fairies.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Never bow your head.
For anyone.
Collar breaker, collar breaker, where are you? [FOOTSTEPS RUSTLING.]
[LIGHT BULBS BUZZING.]
- Ready the chair.
- I need to check the equipment.
Yes, sir.
[SPEAKING HEBREW.]
[MAGIC CHIMES.]
They're saying they want everything.
Our entire supply.
Look, I know that it sounds risky, but there is a limited time to this offer.
- If we don't - Risky? No.
Reckless.
Leave us.
Though we've been separated by time and great distance, we are the same.
We are spun from divine inspiration.
Blessed.
We are the living embodiment of magic.
I may have secured a new source.
Of fairies? How? Ask Edwin.
He's seen her.
So I've come to restore your strength.
To help you understand the glory of who you are.
Your suffering is my suffering.
Your injustice, mine.
- Where is Edwin? - Edwin? Edwin is working.
And when we are finally free, we are gonna hunt down every last living slaver, gouge out their eyes, cut out their tongues, and hang them by their own entrails.
You may feel a pinch, but if you relax, it'll be brief.
[DEVICE WHOOSHES.]
You want us to pull back our advancements on Fillory? This is ridiculous.
All we're really asking is that we pause the invasion.
You both know that the only reason Eliot and I are in this mess is because of fairy meddling bullshit.
And as soon as we clear this up with the people of Fillory Deposed rulers don't get their thrones back.
They exile themselves.
Or die at the hands of the mob.
Is this how you talk to all your allies? Allies? My dear, I have yet to see any proof that your marriage to my son was ever even consummated.
I made his little life flash before his eyes.
Are you sure that wasn't from the toad bite? You saw it? Of course I did.
I'm his mother.
Wow, that's a lot to process.
In any case, I have no faith in either of you reclaiming your thrones.
We will continue our advancement on Fillory.
I'm afraid Loria declines as well.
With magic gone, Loria has the advantage over Fillory.
It makes no sense to withdraw when I know we'll succeed.
I have to do what's best for my people.
And what about our engagement? You're no longer king, Eliot.
So it's no longer valid.
King Idri, are you saying you have yet to take a husband? My son's marble has yet to be polished.
You mossy, pimping bitch.
Will you excuse us for two seconds? As much as I would love to roll your smother-in-law off our boat, it won't prevent either one of them from invading Fillory.
We need to split those two up before your man's arranged to marry my child bride.
And our best plan is We offer them magic.
[OMINOUS MUSIC.]
What the [DOOR CLANKS OPEN.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Fen! I just watched him help kill a fairy.
And there isn't a machine that removes their collars, just a machine that removes their heads.
What? All right, we just need to figure something out.
There's nothing.
Fairy deals cannot be broken.
Wait, the magic that controls the collars, they're fairy deals? Edwin said you're the oldest of the fairies.
Does that mean that you were the one who made the deal? - Yes.
- [GASPS.]
How could you do that to your own people? Hundreds of years ago, Magicians had hunted us out of existence nearly.
Then my Queen found passage to a new world.
Several of us volunteered to bind ourselves to the collars and the McAllistairs.
A deal that would keep them from following.
We thought we'd sacrifice the few for the many.
But as my generation died, and younger generations were born into this life, I lost faith in that sacrifice.
Or in the belief that my Queen had made it to the other side.
She did.
My mother, your Queen, led us to Fillory, where I was born.
And we were able to create a home there.
All because of your sacrifice.
You never should have come.
Because now you can never go back.
There is a way to break a fairy deal, isn't there? - It doesn't matter.
- Doesn't matter? Of course it does.
I will not do it.
Our deals are the foundation of our culture and key to our survival.
You are their Queen.
You came here to save them.
If you don't, what's the point? Fairies are known for honoring their deals.
When we break them, we lose the people's trust and our limited leverage, which we need for survival.
Without that, we are weak and vulnerable.
It would be better for all of us for me to take it to the grave.
Which will be soon enough! Against the wall.
Dust, we're on a schedule.
[SOLEMN MUSIC.]
Do not go with him.
What did I just say? I won't let you do this.
[MAGIC THUNDERS.]
I do not have time for this.
- [WHIMPERING.]
- [SCREAMS.]
Stop! No! [TENSE MUSIC.]
[SCREAMING.]
[GASH GURGLES.]
[SPELL SIZZLES.]
What the fuck? [GROANING.]
[HEAVY THUDS.]
Ah! You guarantee that this is the best decision - for our family? - I guarantee it.
Do not make me regret my decision, Irene.
Oh, Vincent, when have I ever steered this family wrong? [LAUGHTER.]
Cheers.
- To us.
To a new future.
- Cheers.
- Oh.
- [CHUCKLES.]
[SCREAMING, FRIGHTENED CHATTER.]
Ahh! [SCREAMING.]
[SCREAMS.]
[WHIMPERING.]
[GRUNTS.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[OMINOUS MUSIC.]
[SOBBING.]
[GASPS.]
Shit.
It seems like those Secrets dicks really made you earn it.
Any idea where you're going now that you're moving on? No, they, uh They didn't really say.
Well, who'd you talk to? Was it Fran? Oh, she's She's the one that just got those two lazy eyes and Never really know which one to focus on 'cause they're both moving.
[LAUGHS.]
I I had, uh I couldn't really see his face under his hood, but he had He had glowing red eyes.
- Oh.
- What what does that mean? Oh, you must have done some horrible shit in your time.
Wait, wait, uh, whe where am I going? Is it hell? If only.
At least hell is warm.
There's a place worse than hell? Oh, and way more creative with what they plug all of your openings up with.
[STAMMERS.]
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready to go anywhere.
[CHUCKLES.]
[MAGIC WHOOSHES.]
Hello, Penny.
Let's chat.
[TENSE PIANO MUSIC.]
I've missed this.
But it doesn't change anything.
You know what Margo's doing right now? She's convincing the Stone Queen that we'll get magic back.
Because we will.
And she's threatening her with it.
If I'm lying, invade later and kill me.
But if I'm not, do you really wanna fight righteously pissed off Magicians who can finger-blast your entire army into fucking compost? And is that your strategy as well? To threaten me? I'd be well within my rights, given that your army is about to attack us.
But no, I'm not threatening you.
- I am promising you - What exactly? On the off chance this is true, what're your plans for taking back control of the thrones? Once we give back magic to the people, we won't have to take anything.
Hell, they'll be begging us to take back our thrones.
Our Magicians can identify anyone with magical talent.
And it's likely that many of your people have it without the education to know it.
So we'll educate them.
Soon you could have magic as powerful as ours.
I usually like to keep a certain amount of distance between myself and the residents, but you are just so fucking fascinating.
What? I've never seen anyone fight their destiny so hard while simultaneously propelling themselves towards it.
I mean, you narrowly escaped death.
Twice.
And then still snuck into the Underworld.
Who does that? Yeah, I still have no idea who you are.
Hades.
[CHUCKLES.]
Hades.
- Like the god? - Shh.
I told you, low profile.
Okay, so what the hell are you doing talking to me? - Look, is this about the metro - No, it's not about that.
It's much more big picture.
Let's talk about your future as a Librarian.
Or not.
This is about that Quest, isn't it? Let me tell you something about that.
It doesn't matter.
Easy for a god to say.
Spoiler alert Magic always comes back.
It may take a millennia and your entire species verging on the brink of extinction, but it will.
Because ultimately, magic's a carrot gods use to keep humans in check.
It's a lot to take in, I know.
My point is, your life as a human, it's like your memories before the age of three.
This Quest, your friends, in a thousand years, hazy at best.
Your life starts now, after death.
And yes, I realize the phrasing is confusing.
Okay, what what is this? Is this some kind of fucked up punishment for stealing a metro card? Hardly.
There are a lot of places you could've ended up that aren't nearly as nice as the Underworld.
Shackled to a trolley re-shelving books? We're in the greatest Library in the entire universe with almost an eternity to explore it.
And if you want the shackles off, go to Howard.
So I have to join a book club to free myself? All anyone's offering you is a chance to participate and be part of something.
You've got that whole loner thing, but it's obviously a front.
Ever since that trip to Savannah with your real mom, you've been desperate to prove your worth.
Yeah, okay, you and everyone else down here that's read my book what, you just think you know me? But it's why you're always sacrificing yourself for people, right? To remind them how important you are to the group? If you're that desperate to move on and maybe somehow fumble your way back to your old life, I won't stop you.
But I'm telling you, Penny, if you stay down here, you've got an amazing destiny ahead of you.
You've just gotta choose it first.
And that should be the last keystone, right? I don't understand.
Would you stop You keep acting like this is your book.
Maybe 'cause I've been on the Quest for more than two minutes Guys, snoop-and-poop voices.
Please.
You're hiding something from me.
Why don't you just ask me what you wanna ask me? Guys, seriously, I just got out of a fantasy prison, and I don't wanna end up in a real one.
Are you working for the Library? Yes.
Surprisingly honest.
That's Are you trying to stop us? No.
They wanna help us.
They want magic back as badly as you do.
Well, I find that a little hard to believe, given what they did to Harriett and Victoria and Penny.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What about Victoria? [OMINOUS MUSIC.]
You're welcome.
Yeah, you boned me, but you also saved my life.
And I left you alone when I shouldn't have.
Christ, okay, just go see your family alread No, I I don't I don't understand.
What's to understand? They helped me.
They wanna help us.
How is any of that bad? Sorry, are you smoking right now? I was stoked to go on this Quest and hang with you guys, but My ex is dead, and you two are setting my ball hairs on end.
I need this.
I'm just glad I was a genius who stashed high-end party treats all over while I was Substitute High King.
If the Library wanted to help, why hide it from me? Why not just tell me? Because I know you.
And I know how you'd react.
And you did.
Guys.
Guys.
Guys! I know where the Sixth Key is.
Where? I'm sorry that we couldn't save more of your kind.
Had it not been for you, they'd all be dead.
I choose to be grateful.
I won't tell anyone about what you did tonight.
It's too late.
There are consequences to broken deals.
Our word will mean nothing.
I'm sorry.
[SOLEMN MUSIC.]
Of all the humans that have ever sough me out, you're the only one who didn't do it for personal gain.
If more were like you, we might have been able to coexist.
We still can.
We could at least try.
You and your companions are on a Quest, correct? For seven keys? Yes.
We have one of the keys in the Fairy Realm.
But it's what created and sustains the Fairy Realm.
Without the key, everything collapses, which is why we can never give it to you.
