Being Human (US) s04e01 Episode Script

Last season on Being Human I want to be with you forever.
When love finds you again, you will not run from it.
I'm not gonna pretend that what happened between us didn't mean anything.
I want you to turn me in what you are.
What did you do? Run! I love you.
- Something's different.
- I had a vision.
My wolf.
He's still with me.
Josh? You don't belong in this plane.
- I'm not going back to limbo.
- No, you're not.
You said we're linked, I'll take you with me, I'll leave you there.
- You don't know what I can do.
- Oh no, I do.
Sally? Mmm Did you take the magazine? - Where did you put the magazine? - Shhh! Oh.
OK.
We're still having a "me" time, huh? You should at least schedule some treatments.
I mean, since we're here.
Shhh You can't take the magazine and not let me have a salt scrub.
Nora! He's getting faster! He's hurt! He's fine! Some people go to Italy for their honeymoon.
I bait my husband with a goat.
I'm gonna pick up that shift tomorrow.
Thank you.
I stopped by the house and took out the trash.
- This the only blood we have? - Yeah.
When you were at the house, did you see any sign of Sally? No.
Maybe she saw we weren't there and I don't know.
How far can she travel? I guess anywhere, really, right? - Well, maybe she's gone for good.
- How can a ghost be gone for good? Lots of ways.
Did he do that to you? Yeah, forget it, it's, um, it's already healing, so And you really think he's getting faster? Yeah, but you know what? I just need a bigger head start.
See, he knows these woods better than I do by now.
Come on! It's been 3 months.
It was bound to happen.
When you're running him, do you think he knows? Does it still seem like he knows it's you? Yeah, absolutely.
Josh is still in there.
Aiden, you have to run him 3 times a day just to calm him down enough to get him back in the shed.
What do you expect? Nora, the guy is trapped, and he's scared and he's panicked.
- I mean, imagine what it would be - I know! I try to.
Every time I turn, I try to imagine what would happen if the sun came up and I wasn't me again.
But I never get that far.
Because when you're the wolf, you can't imagine anything else.
- We're gonna get him back.
- How? We don't even know what did this to him in the first place, so please tell me how the hell you and I are supposed to get him back.
Every time I turn, I reach out, and I think I'll find my husband there, and this will all have just been some bad dream.
But this is our life.
This is Josh's life, and it's starting to feel like forever.
Hey, come here.
We're gonna find a way.
- You really need to take a shower.
- Oh, you bet I do.
Yeah.
I never thought to try this before.
Yeah, it's the only thing that gets my knots out.
I really got into the hot-stone treatments.
It wasn't relaxing at first.
It reminded me of how too many of my friends died, but after a decade or so We should do that tomorrow.
Hmm, so we're still gonna be here tomorrow? Aren't we? I don't know.
It's up to you.
It still surprises me, you know, how nice you are to me.
Hmm I wouldn't call it "nice.
" I'd say "patient.
" Well, yet here we are, letting scantily clad ladies throw us around on the ground, and it's kind of fun.
Oh, it's a gas.
This particular venue is a very good choice.
Well done.
I didn't bring us here.
No, I brought us here, but you made "here" this.
We're kind of 50/50 that way.
I didn't make this.
I'm not Hermione frickin' Granger.
I didn't say you made it well.
I liked your rustic room on Lago de Como better, but here are.
I've done this before? We've done all of this before.
This is the way it goes You freak out, I explain things, you make a happy place.
Got it down to a science.
- What? - Yes, sweetie.
See, I was fine with here as just the way it was, but you wanted out.
Look, I get it.
I've had centuries to face the fact that I'm living on borrowed time.
But you, you're tenacious.
But it feels It feels real.
You just don't wanna think about where we are.
S04E01 Old Dogs, New Tricks It's you.
Hi.
How long do we have? Maybe 30 minutes.
Let's get out of here.
I'm happy to explain it again.
It's like a bedtime story.
Sometimes we both doze off during the familiar parts.
Yeah.
No, I understand that we're connected.
You ate me.
I broke you.
What I don't understand is why you would drag me down this particular rabbit hole.
To save the world.
Ah! OK, yeah.
That's a really healthy ego you got over there.
Has anyone ever told you you'd make a fantastic cult leader? I'm serious! There are only so many times you can go around popping holes in the universe before the whole thing falls to pieces.
It's taken too many centuries and too many souls for me to understand that I've abused my power.
And you know what? Like it or not, sweetie, so have you.
Because I ripped my way out of you? - No! - That was survival! No, that was smart.
We have dodged too many deaths.
That's why it benched us.
Do you remember I asked you if you know what happens when you destroy a death spot? This is what happens, all right? You can consider it kind of a holding cell, as if we're criminals, which, in fact, we are.
Right, well, if there was such a thing as an "upsetting the balance of the universe" prison, you would be in solitary.
You would not be sharing a cell with me.
I am like a white-collar criminal compared to you.
I'm just trying to help people.
What do you think I used to tell myself? I know that you don't wanna hear it, but we share more than you know.
And you have power.
It is not safe for you to be driving blind topside.
It's not up to you to decide that.
I admit that I have underestimated you before.
But you do not strike me as the kind of person who has a healthy dose of fear, which is required to take precautions, or to, you know, think for half a beat before doing something really stupid.
And how long do you plan on keeping us down here? Forever.
Or till I figure out a way to end us.
It's starting.
I should go.
I'll see you in the morning.
We'll be all right.
I love you.
I love you.
What's the latest with your people? "My" people? They've been strangely quiet.
Anyone who needed inoculations has got them, and the virus has run its course.
It's hard for Nora to look at me.
After the first month, when I turned back into myself.
I thought, "Thank God, it's over.
" And then morning came and the wolf ripped me apart again.
And I realized, no I'm on a runaway train.
There are glimpses, when I understand, when I see you and Nora, and I know it's you.
And then I'm yanked back down.
And then I'm just the beast.
So last month, when the moon rose, when I held onto Nora and I tasted her tears when we kissed, that's when it all became clear.
No one should have to live with a burden like me.
OK.
And that's why I asked you.
No.
- And that's why.
- No.
That's why I need you to kill me.
And I said no.
No way.
The silver knife, I know you keep it here.
- I keep it for emergencies.
- This is an emergency! I'd be saving both of you! - What? - How do you even do it, running me ragged while trying to keep your job and the house at the same time? And Sally, maybe she's fine or maybe she's trying to reach you.
Hey, wait a second! But she can't, because you're out here, wasting your time with me! Josh.
This is an emergency.
All right? What am I gonna do? That's pretty cool.
You were just gonna let me do it, huh? Hey, man, when you spend over a century contemplating suicide, you learn to read these things.
Nora, she's strong and she's brave, but without that hope that you will return to her, where will her humanity go? I know.
I know.
But how long can the two of you contain me? How long until I outrun you? If, God forbid, I endanger someone will you be able to do what you know you have to do? You have the best intentions, I know.
You tried to save Kenny.
But he was too far gone.
And maybe I will be, too, soon.
Does Nora know how you feel about this? Have you talked to her about this? I have half an hour with her before I have to lock her up for the night.
I can't talk to her about this.
Oh, just a second.
I'm sorry.
- Was it Kat? - Yes, it is Kat.
What do you tell her? How do you explain where you are? - It's a very important conversation! - Life is important.
Your life is important, any semblance of a human life.
She shouldn't have to suffer at the hands of whatever the hell we are.
Who says she suffer What are you missing? Nothing.
It's a stupid faculty thing.
She doesn't even wanna go to it, Josh, so Yeah, that's why she needs you.
Just go, man.
I'm not going.
- You have to go.
- I'm not gonna go.
- You have to salvage this.
- I'm definit I'm fine.
It just takes me a minute to acclimate, you know? And you are very high-maintenance vampire, and I just don't have the energy right now required to deal with your nonsense.
I need to be alone.
I'll see you next month.
Look, man, we're gonna fix you long before that.
- You gonna go or? - OK! OK, I'll go.
I'll see you next month.
You're saying that destroying my death spot erases my way home.
But you and I are linked, and you dragged me down through my death spot.
That's gotta mean I get out through yours.
Well, I guess I gotta find it then.
You see? This is exactly why you belong down here.
You don't know what you're doing.
But I do.
I made all this.
That means I can take it all away.
I'm doing this for your own good.
Sally! Sally! Sally, no! Attention, shoppers.
A flash sale in the Ladies' wear department starts in 30 seconds.
Devil! Yet another devil come to curse us! What's happening? You will not walk with us, devil! We will burn you first! May God strike you dead! Thou unclean one! Out! Out, devil woman! Stand back! Protect yourself.
Do you know how to get this off? Do not look on the devil! OK, so no, then? Die, already! Die! Suffer, witch! Suffer! Donna's death spot was in a Shopmart? Nothing but evil! Witch! Repent! Screw this noise.
I did it.
I did it! I did it, I did it, I did it, I did it.
I did it, I did it, I did it, I did it.
I did it, I did it.
All right, how the hell do I get home? Margaret, come here! Hello.
Nice to see you.
Ah! Thank you.
Hey, how are you? If I could inject this into my veins, I would be a lot better.
Uhhuh! Another scintillating conversation with Dean Whitman's wife.
I'm so sorry to interrupt.
Did she get you to join her awesome book club? Her need to be the smartest person in the room has reached epic proportions.
Will you buy more of her granddaughter's Girl Scout cookies? 'Cause I could murder some Tagalongs.
I said that you and I would go with the Dean's wife and talk to the Dean - Earth to Aidan! - Hmm? Hey! Um, Dean Whitman.
Oh, uh, yeah! Totally.
If you were to give me just I will come back, and I will charm the pants off Dean Whitman.
Mmm! And his wife.
Gross.
Susanna! Hi.
I was just admiring your bracelet.
Oh, thank you.
It was my grandmother's.
It's like one of those things that's so old, it's back in style now.
I used to have one very similar.
I'm sorry now that I lost it.
I'm Kat.
History department.
Diana.
I'm just doing some research.
Oh, um, what area? I think I'm still circling that.
Don't tell my thesis advisor.
Your date seems very doting.
Oh, Aidan.
He is quite the gentleman.
Granted, he suddenly disappeared, uh, but I'll allow some boorish behaviour at a faculty mixer.
Sorry, but I couldn't help notice the two of you.
Everyone else here is Wearing tweed, making jokes about Chaucer, stealing Dean Whitman's good scotch? Yes, all of those.
I'm new in town, so I think I still feel a bit at sea.
You should come hang with us.
I was just about to go find him.
I can't promise you that Aidan won't bust out the Old English, though.
He does like a good party trick.
OK, I'll see you out there.
OK, bye.
There you are.
Sorry I took so long.
It's just work called, and they turned my shift tonight into a double.
- Seriously? - Mm-hmm.
Either you and Nora are the greatest nurses of all time, or no one else works at that hospital.
We are incredibly skilled.
I was just talking to this woman, and she was nice.
I was gonna drag her over to the Dean's table with us.
It's weird.
She was right behind me.
Come here.
Susanna, what what is this? I'm here, baby.
I'm here.
I don't understand.
Isn't it wonderful? Kat was right here.
I know.
She's lovely.
She's so warm.
I understand.
I understand everything.
Think of our history.
It's my fault.
Everything that happened to us is all my fault.
And I never had a chance to tell you how that I am so sorry.
It's ancient history, my love.
Ancient history.
Don't stop.
Aidan? Aidan.
Sally? - There he is.
- Oh! Ah! You're gonna have to explain this one to me again! Aiden, seriously, I don't how I can logically explain to you that I dove through a funnelling pool of blood, I popped up through a witch's death spot, and then I was birthed into a Shopmart.
You are, like, 1,001 years old and guzzle blood.
I just figured that maybe you could go with me on this one.
- I'm just saying this is weird! - Yes, it is! It's crazy, Sally! OK, you're back, but do you feel different? If what Donna said is true, does that mean I'm gonna stop you right there, because that's crazy talk.
You just told me that you spent 3 months chatting it up - with a witch in a day spa! - Yeah, I made that day spa.
Apparently I make things to not think about other things.
So you're either delusional or you're very powerful or both.
- Do you remember - I'm back! I'm back.
That is all I care about right now.
OK, you're back.
Yes! You're back.
And it's awesome you're back.
I'm happy you're back.
I know! But if what Donna said is true If you're not supposed to be here Then it's not safe for you to be here! Oh my God! I know it's really easy to believe a woman with a head wrap! - What? - I'm just saying, why would we believe anything she's saying at this point? Because she hasn't lied, Sally.
Well, exactly, she hasn't lied.
Exactly! I mean, yes, she manipulated events to her favour, but as I understand it, wasn't she always a straight shooter, sort of? Of fireballs, yes.
Look, I am here right now.
- We are here, talking finally - That's not my point! Which, after everything that I've been through, seems like a miracle.
Can't we focus on endless possibilities instead of worst-case scenarios? Yes! Where's Josh? I know he's not here, because the fridge is bare, and the magazines aren't in their crazy-person fan display.
Can I see him? Yes.
I wish we had more time.
I know.
I don't want you to see me, though.
I want you to remember me like this.
I can't say goodbye anymore.
I just want it to be us again.
I know.
And I feel like I'm failing you.
I know that I shouldn't say that.
I wanna have all the answers.
But I'm getting scared.
We'll figure it out.
OK? We always do.
Please don't worry.
You should go.
Hey, Nora, you are never gonna believe who I just found haunting our house.
Aaah! Yep, yep! Oh my God! Hi! Oh my God! I wish I could hug you! What happened to you? Where have you been? It's a long story.
Aidan just told me your whole Ladyhawke situation with Josh.
I don't even know what to say.
"Sorry" seems so useless.
I know.
It's, uh Well, would you like to see him? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
- So, you're telling me I can't see Josh - Yes, you can see Josh.
Real Josh, till the next full moon? That's crazy! He's gone.
Aidan! Awesome! OK, well, uh, I'm just gonna go be bait! Nora, we're probably gonna need the "trank" gun.
Have you seen him? Have you seen him? I lost him.
- Oh my God! - Nora, you shouldn't be here.
No, he won't hurt me.
You don't know what he would do.
He's just scared! Yes, he's scared and he's alone and he's terrified of what he might do.
That's why he wants us to kill him! - What? - I probably shouldn't have told you that.
So that's what this is? Oh my God! Aidan.
Get back! Get back! Josh? Uh Josh.
You know what? I'm not doing this! It's your move.
Stop! Ah! Oh! So, what the hell? I don't know.
I don't know what that was.
Sally, thank you! Where did she go? - Sally! - Sally! Guys? Guys! Well, this is new.
Do you really wanna die? Hello, Blake.
Aidan! It's been a while.
Hmm! What are you doing in my hospital? You know those rules don't exist anymore.
Oh, look who knows Boston politics.
I'd tell you to take it up with the new regime, but I know how you hate to get involved.
Relax! No one's building a vampire army.
We've barely got enough for a bocce game.
We're just trying to get back to status quo.
OK, shhh! You were right the first time.
I don't wanna be involved.
But Sapp & Sons? Really? Well, you have to admit, it's really the cleanest way.
There's nothing wrong with a funeral home, but that particular one, everyone that's ever owned it is dead.
- Except for you.
- Except for me.
How did someone so ambitious get stuck with the grunt work? It has its benefits.
You should know.
You and Bishop originated the whole blue-collar cover, didn't you? Oh yes! And it took a long time to get that system.
Hey, look, I've washed my hands of this, but I still have to live in this city, and I'd feel better, at least, if I knew it was being run right.
So if you ever need to talk or run some things by me, I could spare you some of the mistakes.
Like I said, it's been a while.
That's because things are going well.
I thought you'd value your freedom more than anything.
I've got a short window of time to turn them, so Yeah, you know what? I think we're gonna let the clock run out on this one.
- Aidan.
- I'm sorry.
Build your army.
I don't care.
But have some respect.
Don't do it here.
You owe me one, pal.
Evening, Aunt Blake.
I really wish you'd stop calling me that.
I'm sentimental.
That's all.
Any news? Nothing urgent.
I updated your calendar.
Ah, fantastic! Thank you.
I saw your father today.
Aidan? - Where the hell has he been? - I didn't ask.
I was under the impression that we didn't need him.
We don't.
So, did you tell him? That his little boy's grown up to run Boston? No.
OK, good.
I'd like to tell him on my own terms.
And Blake? You know, I hate to have to keep telling you this, but really, if you keep using that tone with me, there are gonna be repercussions.
I think you know that.
Yes.
Of course! My apologies.
Awesome.
What is this? The blood of the child revives us.
The blood of the child revives us Sorry to interrupt.
I just sort of popped in here, and I'm not The blood of the child revives us.
The blood of the child revives us.
- Please, no! Let me go! Please! - The blood of the child revives us - The blood of the child revives us - No.
Stop! No! I love you.
Mmm! Good morning.
Mmhmm.
I would like to acknowledge that I just said some very loaded words, and I don't want things to get weird.
No, nothing's weird.
Neither of us are 22, Aidan.
We don't have to dodge the conversation.
Sometimes, when a lady has the morning that I just did you know, like, a really super, bordering-on-outstanding morning things can slip out.
All right, OK, so it just slipped out, and you didn't mean it.
OK, remember the morning after Nora's wedding? Yes.
I woke up at my place, half the night before in a forgotten haze.
Probably had something to do with the unfortunate combination of a case of champagne and a 5-person guest list.
But when the fog of my hangover lifted, the first thing that I saw was your face, and it felt really good.
And that's when I knew that I had gone from falling to fallen.
OK, so, yeah, I meant it.
I love you, Aidan.
But I'm not gonna cease to exist if you are not ready to say it back.
OK, I have an early class.
Uh, I am going to jump in the shower, head on out, and, um, I'll call you later.
Aidan.
It's me.
