Legacies (2018) s04e04 Episode Script

So, let me ask you again is that boat supposed to take me to Peace? There has to be a catch.
And there it is.
Yeah, sorry, I didn't bring any money.
This is priceless to me.
If you can prove to me that my family is where we're going, maybe we can make a deal.
I wouldn't do that if I were you.
It wouldn't be the afterlife without The Necromancer butting in.
At least this mind game we're playing is actually starting to make some sense.
It's Ted, actually.
And I'm afraid this is no game.
- I'm not interested.
- Neither were we.
Not until we experienced the transformative miracle that we're here to talk to you about.
- I'm also Jewish.
- Well, that's cool.
'Cause this ain't about the big JC.
It's about the big M.
Mormons? - Malivore.
- Never heard of him.
Now, please leave before I have to call the sheriff.
Do you mind if we leave you a little something behind first? Hallelujah.
On to the next house.
So we split up.
I followed Kaleb here, where I picked up Hope's scent, too.
The old train depot.
- Where's Wade? - He's still tracking Ethan.
Malivore's obviously controlling them.
And those townies now.
But at least the ones Kaleb and Ethan are converting don't seem to be monsters.
Dimmest bright side ever.
We have to find a way to snap them out of it somehow.
And a way to bring back Landon and Cleo.
Malivore is trying to split us up.
Make us fight on multiple fronts.
Then which one's it gonna be? Well, we can't let him harm civilians.
And we can't defeat him without Hope, either.
If we launch a full-on assault, innocent people are gonna get hurt.
Or worse.
I have to go in alone.
But you just said that he wants to split us up.
Because he doesn't know what I do.
How capable each and every one of you are.
So, before you try and talk me out of this We won't.
We know why you have to.
You made a promise to Hope.
Just like we did.
Jo's right.
For this one time only, you have our permission to put Hope Mikaelson first.
What about those other fronts? Usually, I'd tell you not to get involved, at which point you'd just hatch a plan behind my back and then go and save the day.
So why don't we just skip that first part this time around? Well, I guess that makes you in charge.
So what do we do? All of it.
What are we doing here, exactly? We're in limbo.
It's the brunch of the bloody afterlife.
So, hop in Skeletor's boat.
I can't.
He won't accept anything I have to offer.
Then why is he willing to accept me? Because you're qualified.
You've spent your whole life being a hero, whereas I wasted centuries of mine being a villain.
So, if you'll indulge me You're dead, obviously.
- In transition.
- Sure, sure.
And I'm guessing that you died on purpose.
To bring an end to Malivore once and for all? You can't do that if you get in bonehead's boat, can you, now? No, but I'll never reach Peace if I go back, either.
Why would you think that? Uh, because I'm a Mikaelson? Being a vampire is the opposite of peaceful for us, not to mention everyone else.
You're not just any vampire, you're the Tribrid.
Which is what scares me.
You know, when we first met, you told me that my father would never find peace until I did.
And now I have the opportunity to.
So the question, yet again, is who do I save? Shut up in there.
Don't make me get the belt.
You're the reason this family is such a mess.
You are a hard man to find, Landon Kirby.
So, what are you gonna do? Let's face it, Ted.
I'm screwed.
I won't be able to handle the grief if I have to kill the love of my life.
- Mm.
- Or the guilt if I take the easy way out and go to Peace.
Was what you told me true? Will my family find Peace if I do? I just can't remember that conversation at all.
You know, I recall being The Necromancer, but only in pieces.
I suppose it could be the truth, or a manipulative lie.
I mean, I was very good at that.
Hmm.
I'm sorry, Hope.
Do me a favor? Yeah.
If my mother, father or uncle pass by, tell them not to wait for me.
Welcome back to the land of the living.
Don't get used to it.
You won't be staying long.
Motus.
That was cute.
But you're in transition, remember? No magic.
No wolf form, no vampire powers.
It's ironic, isn't it? You've become the Tribrid and you're more vulnerable than ever.
Only until I feed.
What if you don't feed? The muse showed me how to kill you.
But it's gonna take time.
Time I no longer have, because you decided to turn.
But what I do know is what insatiable hunger feels like, so let me tell you what happens if you don't feed.
You die, Hope.
Alone, broken, pitiful.
That's your fate.
My friends will come for me.
Oh, I'm counting on it.
I heard you were looking for me.
I know I owe you a conversation.
But I'm just not ready to have it yet.
That's actually not why I wanted to see you.
I mean, of course, I want to talk about that, but That.
One Banshee candle and all of the salt from the kitchen, as requested.
Hey, I thought we were helping you.
Believe me, I need all the help I can get.
Okay, well, you need me to channel another monster? Because I totally crushed it last time.
No.
I actually need you and Wade to be my last line of defense.
What do you mean, just sit on our asses? No way.
It's important, Jed.
I need you to clear out the school.
Make sure that nobody can come in or out of this room.
No matter what happens here.
We'll check in every 30 minutes.
And we'll order pizza.
Huh.
Okay.
So, what exactly are you planning to do? Black magic.
An extremely advanced summoning spell from The Necromancer's old grimoire to try to pull Landon and Cleo out of Malivore.
Well, that's witch stuff.
What do you need from me? Just your support.
Just for today.
Cleo enchanted this with a muting spell.
So if what I'm doing goes wrong, I need you to light it so I can't speak.
How am I supposed to know if it's going wrong? Trust me.
You'll know.
Looks like Wade was right.
That's Ethan's truck.
Help Mr.
Williams evacuate the building while I find him.
And what happens if I run into him while I'm evacuating the school? Please don't hurt him.
We've done enough of that already.
Don't worry.
I care about him, too.
Hey, partner.
You're about to have an E-mergency.
Get to the train depot.
He's mine.
I don't want to fight.
Well, seeing as to how you told me the truth about the supernatural world, it's only fair that I be honest, too.
You don't have a choice.
I compelled you to forget that.
You guys and all your mythological rules.
Okay, fine.
I'm not Ethan.
Not exactly.
Malivore.
What good are drones if you can't take control of them for all the fun parts? Oh, come on.
You wanted to be a superhero, didn't you? So now you have to fight a supervillain.
Ethan's my friend.
Not anymore.
But on the bright side, he finally has powers.
What kind of powers? Thanks for coming to save me.
Though I'm surprised I was so hard to find, with so many of me running around.
Do not mention it.
Especially as I created one of them.
Yeah, speaking of, how do I know you're actually you and not Malivore? Trust me, Malivore is not focused on either one of us at the moment.
Because he now has the idea we were so desperate to keep from him.
How to kill Hope? He tricked me.
I am sorry.
Well, we have to find a way out.
We have to warn her.
We need not move.
For ever since I have seen what Malivore is capable of creating using the darkness, I have wondered how.
I realized this place exists inside him.
Which means it is made of him.
I will make us a way out.
That can't be good.
Not bad, Doc.
You ready for round two? Come on, E.
I know you're in there.
Don't fight me.
Fight him.
For the last time, you have to fight me.
Origin story's over.
It's time to put on your big boy tights.
So let's raise the stakes.
Of all the powers you could have given him, you picked a real cowardly one.
It's effective, though, right? Because we both know where this stake belongs.
In that huge heart of yours.
I evacuated the school, so I figured I'd make my own plan and save both of you.
He's not breathing.
That was just a warning shot, Doc.
I can hear your heart racing.
So get your old ass out here before I have to hurt you for real.
If you're worried about hurting me, there's still good in you.
Only goes so deep, Doc.
Leave.
I can't.
Malivore has Hope.
Yeah, I know.
I'm the one that brought her to him.
Yeah.
And the only reason you were able to is because we trusted you.
Like I'm trusting you right now.
Ooh.
Big mistake.
Look, how many times do I have to believe in you before you believe in yourself? Okay, stop coming at me.
I don't want to do this.
Yeah, then don't.
Okay? Fight it.
Like you fight your bloodlust.
Like you fight for your friends.
Not another step, Doc.
I'm-I'm dead serious.
So am I.
But I'm betting my life on you.
That's it.
That's it.
Come on.
Yeah, hey What are you doing, man? You could've got yourself killed.
Yeah, wouldn't be the first time.
Looks like I got here just in time.
Damn, the kid's a crybaby.
Oh, and before you make a weird face and go, "Malivore?" Yes, it's me.
I've got a PhD, dick.
You think you're teaching your students how to survive, but all you're teaching them is how to be prey instead of predators.
It makes my job easy, but it is pathetic.
Can't be that easy.
Because we've been kicking your ass for years, pal.
No one will ever remember the monsters you slayed.
No one will ever remember your students, once the Tribrid is dead and I consume them all.
But I won't consume you.
That way, the world will remember that you and your school were failures.
But just to be clear, I am going to kill you.
Nailed it.
Dragon, soft spot, snarky quip.
Can I do anything to help? Yes, be quiet.
This process is more difficult than I thought.
Sorry.
I guess I've just been in here for so long, I'm pretty sick of the quiet, you know? This door will need a handle.
You making one would be a great help.
Oh, cool.
Begone.
What the hell was that? If I had to guess, someone is trying to summon you.
This seems bad.
Pervenio, supervenio, advehor.
Pervenio, supervenio, advehor.
I mean, I'm no expert.
So maybe I should go grab Jed and Wade? Pervenio, supervenio, advehor.
Jo, can you hear me? Pervenio, supervenio, advehor.
Screw this.
Pervenio, supervenio, advehor.
Hey, girlfriend.
Hope.
Hope.
Hope, you're dying.
You need to feed.
I know.
What if I can't handle what comes after? I've never seen anything you can't handle.
So I'm willing to take that risk if you are.
I never wanted it to come to this.
I'm sorry.
Guess that's why they call it fate.
See you on the other side.
Am I interrupting something? Seems like a moment.
It's okay.
No, we're done here.
And so are you.
Get Kaleb back to the school.
He should be somewhere safe when he revives.
Trust me, there's nothing safe about what's gonna happen here.
You underestimate me, Tribrid.
I eat monsters like you.
There is no monster like me.
Vitae.
But you haven't even seen my wolf form yet.
This is so me.
There's only one boy in the world that actually likes me, so of course I accidentally kill him.
Ethan's not going to die.
And he's definitely not the only guy who likes you.
- Why'd you stop? - I'm shocked.
I mean, I knew you used to feel that way in the past, but lately Shock.
Use your magic and shock his heart.
Start it up again.
Well, I could fry him.
I believe in you.
And other things.
I always have.
I always will.
Clear.
Inpulsa.
Oh, God.
I don't know if it Why are you looking at me like that? I told you this was complicated.
More like ridiculous.
And do people seriously call you Dark Josie? Mm.
Among other things.
Get into it.
I'm not afraid of you.
And I'm into Josie just the way she is.
Well, first off, I haven't done anything scary yet.
And secondly, this is the way Josie is.
So maybe that scares you? You're not the only one around here who has a dark side.
Please don't tell me you're comparing this to you being a werewolf.
I used to hide it, like you.
Pretend I wasn't what I was.
But Josie taught me that there is a place for all of me.
This place.
For the last time, Lassie, I am Josie.
You can't be.
Not as long as one side of you is trying to take over the other.
You think you have to fight it, and I did, too.
But all you have to do is love it.
And what if I'm incapable of love? Hmm? Oh, no.
Will we need to break up? Hell no.
Because until you're ready for that, I'll love your dark side for you.
You brought me back.
You were never really gone.
Now let's bring Landon and Cleo back, too.
All right.
That's the full Tribrid tour.
Now we can finally end this.
Vitris.
Any last words? Are you all right? That depends.
Uh Where exactly does this door take us? Out of this realm and back to our world.
Where I'm not in control of my body.
I took that into account.
So my magic will create a new vessel for you once you pass through it.
Your consciousness and Malivore's will be separated.
Hopefully, we can find a way to return you back to your own body.
One day.
I'm sure we'll figure something out.
So, what are we waiting for? Playing possum won't change what's about to happen.
Because the truth is I don't really care what you have to say.
Hope? Landon? Is it really you this time? I bet you say that to all the Landons.
In hindsight, I probably should have.
But none of them would've made that joke.
I'm gonna need more proof.
I can't believe you're here.
I can't stay.
What are you talking about? I am so happy I got to see you.
To kiss you, to breathe the same air as you.
The thought of those things has been all that's kept me going this whole time.
I'm in control of my body for the moment, which means I have access to my mind.
I have access to all of Malivore's memories.
I know you're the Tribrid.
We both know you have to kill me.
It is time for us to go.
Be a gentleman and hold the door? As I told you centuries ago I will never let you go.
Did you really believe I would fall for this trick again? This is not a door.
It is your coffin, Malivore.
This belongs to Cleo.
We found it in the art studio.
Any luck with Landon? I couldn't pull him through.
Maybe I'm just not strong enough to do this spell without going to the dark side.
You're strong just the way you are.
But we can help, right? You can siphon us and boost your juice like last time? Maybe.
If you're up for that.
Hell yes.
In the middle of the action.
Where we belong.
I'm warning you now, this might hurt a little.
Uh, how badly? Like, on a scale from one to Mommy? Just let yourself go, Jo.
You've got this.
Pervenio, supervenio, advehor.
Pervenio, supervenio, advehor.
Stop talking.
I can't do this.
You wouldn't be here if that were true.
You wouldn't have made this.
I made that to kill Malivore.
And that is exactly what you'd be doing.
No, I won't.
Not if I have to look into your eyes when I do it.
Then close them.
Look, this is exactly what he's counting on.
The whole reason he gave me control.
Whatever this is, it won't last.
I'm still his puppet, and we both know that, too.
Do you have any idea what you're asking me to do? Believe me, I do.
Then why? Because we've been fighting this fate ever since we figured out who you are.
It's true.
Fate wants to tear us apart.
If we stand together, we win.
You'll still be dead.
Moral victory, at least.
I'm gonna miss the way you make me laugh.
I'm gonna miss all of it.
And I wouldn't trade a second, even if it has to end like this.
I love you, Landon.
I always will.
I love you, Hope.
Forever.
You are clever.
But your traps never hold me long.
And when I escape, I will search the world for the weapon you told me about.
The one that'll kill the Tribrid.
You will do no such thing.
Hope fulfilled her destiny.
Then at least you will die with me.
What magic is this? It is a Squad thing.
Well? Did it work? Uh, yeah, Jo.
Hell of an entrance, Cleo.
Hell of a Squad.
I can't believe I did it.
I can.
Hi.
That's badass.
But what about Landon? Oh, come on, me marrowy mate.
Show a bit of sympathy for someone who once dealt in death as you do.
We really have to stop meeting like this.
I'll be damned.
Obviously.
The Tribrid went through with it.
Obviously.
Well, chin up, my former foe.
We've figured our way out of worse.
So, do you think Ethan's gonna hate us? Now that he's supernatural, my compulsion will wear off.
I'm not sure how everything that's happened is gonna land with him.
But what I do know is that you were a hero today.
This guy I really like was in serious danger, so And, uh, which guy are we talking about? I had a couple beers stashed in the locker room.
It's not enough for all of us, but I figure we could share, right? So, you're not mad? You two saved my life.
I figure that makes us more than even.
Hey.
I bet your dad has a ton of booze back at the Salvatore School.
We should probably head over there, anyway.
Why? Because I figured I'd ask him about enrolling.
Are you sure you don't want me to stay and help you clean up all this salt? That's tomorrow's problem.
Well, there's still a couple hours left in today, which means I'm technically still on support duty.
So do you want me to just stay period? What about the Merge? Look I won't lie.
That does scare me.
Mm, then we should talk about that.
In the morning.
Does that always happen when you kiss a girl? Not to my knowledge.
Well, get used to it.
Sorry for the accommodations.
Safety first.
So, how you feeling? Um Like my old self.
For real.
But I I think I'm still part dragon.
Oh.
Well, that's unexpected.
Well, in the, uh, positive column, all the locals that you and Ethan gooed are back to normal.
No one remembers anything.
It's over.
Landon? Damn.
I don't-I don't know what I was thinking.
Love makes us do stupid things.
Story of my life.
Mine, too.
Cleo.
How are you back? It is quite a story.
I will tell it to you on our date.
Yeah.
If you are willing, I'd like to say a prayer for Landon.
I'm sorry I'm late.
I had to make sure everyone at the school was safe.
But I'm glad you called.
Did you tell anyone that you were meeting me? Well, you asked me not to.
Why? Because they'll want to come once they find out what happened.
Only because they love you.
They'll eventually realize what I have.
Love is a burden.
Look, I, uh, I know you're in a dark place right now.
You have no idea where I'm at.
See, I thought that I was prepared to become the Tribrid.
To kill Landon.
For all the emotions that would bring.
Your grandmother turned me into a vampire once.
I know how it feels.
Why didn't you turn it off? Because that's never the answer.
Isn't it? Hope? No.
My humanity flipped the second that sword went through Landon.
But I got to say, it really seems to be working for me.
Like, I was so sick of being controlled by my emotions.
It's like, love, lose, grieve, repeat.
I am finally free.
So don't try to talk me out of it.
I'm not coming back.
Then why did you bring me here? To send a message.
To make sure that my, uh, little friends stay away, too.
Well, I don't think they'll listen.
I'll make it loud and clear.
