Ramona the Pest

Previously on Being Human The wolf is winning! Just get out! - Please don't go.
- I'm scared of you.
Find a way to deal with what you are.
Are you two ready for the flack you'll catch from both sides? Astrid's above that gang-war stuff.
- You gotta stop them! - Astrid? - The wolves got Josh.
- Come on! Come on! I fell in love with Aidan.
Have we done that before? Let's talk about it.
She's sending me a message.
I'm supposed to help her.
- Carl and Joy Bensen with daughter.
- Beatrice.
Would you say you had a normal childhood? Why do you ask? Someone tried human-sacrificing you.
- Please! - The blood of the child No! Ok, how did you get here, Sally? Did you do magic? No! It's the possession.
You possessed those werewolves to help Aidan.
You kissed him! You're talking to yourself.
Are you awake? Easy! You're pretty banged up.
There's new wolves out there.
Wolves I made.
It's not your fault.
They made you do it.
Let's hope that's enough for Mark.
Hopefully, he'll cut his losses and leave us alone.
Where are you going? Back to my place.
I wanted to stay to make sure that you were ok.
It doesn't mean that I'm back.
Wait.
Please.
Please don't leave me.
You're the only thing that keeps me safe.
The only thing that keeps me here.
I can't handle that responsibility.
I'm trying so hard to find ways to get better.
Josh? But all I can think to do is to be completely honest with you.
I can't be the only thing that keeps you human.
Besides, I don't even think that that's true! It's absolutely true.
You're everything to me.
Sally? Hi.
Why are you in our closet? Hey, wake up.
What? What? Oh my God! Is Josh Did he scratch someone? Is he making eggs? I just discovered something, something big.
Well, good for you, Sally.
Sally, Sally, Sally! Are you you're ok? - Yes! - Thank God you're ok.
Yeah.
Did you just shake me awake - with your hand? - Yes! What, you can touch me? Since when? What How did this happen? I don't know.
Last night, I got all grudge-y again, and then I fell asleep, and then I woke up, and then I was like this! Ow! Ok, well, that's awesome, but how did what did you How did you make this happen? - I don't know.
- Was it magic? Is it a spell? I don't know.
I don't remember casting a spell.
Who cares? I'm as corporeal as a mofo! Perfect! Yes, you are! So, what does that mean? I don't know if this is temporary or not, so I just, I really want to enjoy it.
Yeah, of course.
So that's why I came down here.
Yeah oh! Um Sally Shut up, I know you liked kissing me, and I was like a random werewolf dude at the time.
Like I said, I really don't know how much time we have.
Can't we just enjoy it? Hmm? Ok.
Ok.
- I'm sorry! - Oh, hi! Sorry, I'm just looking for a sl oh my God! Whoa! I'm so sorry.
No, I'm sorry! It was my fault.
Shouldn't be down here.
Shouldn't be looking there! Uh, it just kind of lunged from under the covers! It lunged? Ok, what are you doing here? Josh said there's a sledgehammer down here.
What do you need a sledgehammer for? Oh yeah! You guys get it? Nothing? Come on.
It's the kool-aid guy.
Yeah, it's a lifelong dream of mine to sledgehammer my way through a wall into a secret room, but couldn't let me have that one, could you? You're not healthy enough to swing a sledgehammer.
I was trying to help you out.
I think you wanted to be kool-aid.
Maybe.
Ok, guys, so I think the important thing is that now we've all seen it, so we can now leave and close this up.
I wish we'd known about this room before! Yeah, it's got great light.
It's nice and big.
I could've had a nice craft room in here.
Or, like, a ping-pong table.
I don't know.
Doesn't it strike anyone as odd the fact that this was always sealed up? Like, maybe it was like this for a reason.
Yeah, there's definitely bad vibes in here, and someone obviously lived up here.
Why would it be all sealed up and hidden? Guys, I've been in here before, when I used my magic.
This is where I saw the cult weirdos and the little girl.
I saw someone get murdered here.
But you didn't, though, right? I mean, you you checked into it and she's still alive.
It was just a big mistake.
Not the biggest of mistakes.
Someone Definitely died.
Right here.
See, the blood soaked into the floorboards.
You can smell disco-era blood? - You can't? - No! What about those marks? What are those? That's the weird thing.
These marks Oh, that's the weird thing? That's the weird thing! Sorry.
I was saying that these marks are more recent.
Thank God! Hello.
- Dad! - Mr.
Malik! Have we met? No, I'm sorry.
I just Please, come in.
He looks so tired.
I just came by to make final arrangements.
Final arrangements? This is Aidan and this is my wife, Nora.
Hi.
Hello, hi.
Um, what final arrangements? The house has been sold.
The inspector will be coming next week, then we can finalize the paperwork.
I'll need your keys by the end of the week.
Uh, you know, Mr.
Malik, we just need a little bit more time.
Robbie told me he gave you notice, nearly a month.
He did.
Uh, we just thought that after he passed - Josh! - What? What he meant to say is that, uh, we ran into some personal difficulties and we've fallen behind on our packing, so I'm sorry, but it doesn't change the facts.
You can't stay here.
We need more time, Mr.
Malik.
You have till the end of the week.
Guys, now is the time to beg.
- You gotta beg.
- I beg you, Mr.
Malik.
No! No! I'm sorry, but I need to be rid of this house.
I can't believe I stepped back inside.
We understand entirely.
We're very sorry.
You have through the weekend.
I want your keys on Monday.
Oh my God! Wait, what? No! You're throwing that out? You've had some of this stuff since before, like, a lot of this other stuff.
Fresh start, new mojo.
I'm cleaning it all out, Sally.
- Cleaning what out? - My life! I've been thinking about this since last night.
She was the last one.
The last what? There's always been a tie to my past that has prevented me from moving on.
Something or someone always shows up and drags me back.
And now, with Suzanna gone, that's it.
Well, I'm glad to hear you talk about Suzanna.
You haven't really spoken about her.
Uh, you know, I'm supposed to be all wound up about Suzanna, but I'm just finding my thoughts drifting to other things.
Like, uh, you.
Huh! Well, you saved my life.
Yeah.
Or you Yeah, what? - You kissed me, Sally! - You told me to.
- I didn't tell you to.
- Not you, you.
The you when I got stuck in the past for a couple years, that you, he told me! We kind of had a thing.
Like a deep thing.
We were in love.
- You me? - Me and you, yeah.
That you told me to kiss this you, and he swore that it would make you realize that you had feelings for me.
So did you? Did you feel anything? I, um I did.
I did! I did, ok? I Well, it's not like we can do anything about it, right? I mean, look, there's attraction.
Yeah.
But I'm old enough to know that that can't be everything.
I don't know if I wanna risk the friendship.
No, I know.
Me too.
Besides, all our relationships end in massive disasters anyway.
Well, mostly you, but yeah.
Yeah, and that's what I'm talking about, Sally.
I don't want us to end up a massive disaster.
Oh my God! Me neither! That's not what I want.
- You're not giving me a chance! - Why are you doing this? Look, it's because I love you, Astrid! Listen, listen.
This is the best way for us to be together.
You know that.
Why don't you want this? I don't know what want! Can we just think about it some more? Um, sorry.
I can come back later if you, uh No.
We're done here.
Um, is Josh all right? He will be.
Ok.
Don't tell me you're blowing it with her! Kenny, she's really good for you.
I know.
That's why I called you.
I need your help.
Yeah! I wanna disappear.
Look, you're doing a good job.
You established a peace between us and the werewolves.
That's unprecedented.
Oh, yeah, that's been really popular.
Aidan, I'm 17 years old.
I mean, do you even remember what that was like? I wanna live a life.
I wanna have a life with Astrid.
If you've got enemies, real enemies, then running away ain't gonna accomplish anything.
They'll find you, and they'll find Astrid, so what you really need to do We could fake your death.
How would I do that? Very simple.
Ok, first, we get our hands on some vampire ashes, ok? So call a meeting.
You get everyone underneath you in the pecking order who Those are the ones that want you dead the most, right? - Right.
- Call that meeting.
Bring them all into here, your office, this room, and I'm standing there with a stake, maybe some blood on it.
I'm huffing and puffing.
I'm brooding.
It's brilliant.
And there are ashes at my feet.
And as far as they're concerned, those are your ashes.
That simple.
You really thing they're gonna buy that story? Oh, the beauty of it is that they're gonna wanna buy it.
And they're gonna be so busy scheming and taking each other out to fill the power vacuum, they're gonna forget all about me and, more importantly, you.
Fine.
What was that? Yeah.
- Yes, is that right? - I'll do it.
That's what I'm talking about! - Let's kill me.
- Let's kill you.
All right.
I'm just gonna need help with Astrid.
She doesn't think she can leave.
Somebody's gotta present a pretty clear case to her.
Kenny, she's not gonna listen to me! Well, if not you Josh, Nora? 'Cause Astrid respects them, and they'll listen to you.
You're a smart kid.
A real smart kid.
No, thanks! What exactly do you mean, "no, thanks"? No, thanks.
It's a polite way of me saying that I don't really wanna get involved in a vampire-werewolf star-crossed love affair.
I'm not asking you to get involved.
I'm asking you to have a conversation.
Astrid deserves a better shot than to be stuck with that pack.
She's not stuck, though.
She's not a child! And she's not stupid.
I mean, she's choosing to be there with them.
I understand that, but look, she's scared, and it's hard to pull away, and I've been there.
As horrible as Mark and that pack of lunatics are, it's all she's ever known.
It's her family.
Exactly! It's her family.
I just don't think that they would hurt her.
What? Josh, look at my face! And what about what they did to you? They drove you wild, they made you turn a bunch of people.
I know! I know exactly what they did! But as twisted as this sounds, I get it.
I don't forgive them.
I'm just saying I understand.
I understand.
They're scared.
They don't know how long this truce between the werewolves and the vampires will last till the persecution is back on.
Wait a second.
So this is about vampires, is it? It's about Kenny.
We started talking about Kenny.
So it's about Kenny, and Kenny is a good kid.
Yeah, he's a kid, though! He's a hot-blooded kid! So Astrid goes with him, they get across the country, and he bails on her.
- He's not gonna bail! - Or they get into a fight.
And they're bound to.
They're kids! And he kills her! Wow! I don't want that on my conscience.
What are you guys talking about? Glad you're here, because Josh was telling me how he really feels about vampires, about me.
- That's not fair - We're not to be trusted.
This has nothing to do with you.
It's about my son, so it does.
And you want to do anything for him.
- Yes, I would! - Ok, ok! That's the only reason? What else would it be about? Sally said you were throwing out your past.
Is that right? I didn't say it was a bad thing.
If you're trying to cut all your ties, why don't you cut Kenny loose and be totally free? Why don't I just abandon my son? Let's talk about a man who has a psychopathic dog that lurks under the surface.
- Aidan! - And instead of seeking help Be careful, man.
He blames everything on the wolf.
"It's the wolf's fault that I've wrecked my marriage, "that I put my friends in constant danger.
" It's everything I can do to keep it just below the surface.
Really? That's very exciting.
Both of you, stop now! Enough! Come on! Can we step down a bit, please? You know what? She's right.
Let's take a step back.
Let's cut all of our ties.
Maybe this little experiment is at an end.
Might be the smart thing to do.
Stop saying it's an experiment! It's a friendship! I'm sick of both of you saying that! It's a friendship that saved all of us countless times! We have to get out of here.
No, you can't go.
Who are you? My name is Ramona.
Please don't leave me Ramona, where do you come from? Here.
Here? Meaning, um, this house? This room.
- Um, did you live here with anybody? -My mom, my dad, Bea.
Beatrice.
Is that your sister? My twin.
That means we're better than sisters.
I need Beatrice.
She knows more than I do.
She talks to people.
How long have you been in this room, Ramona? I'm always here.
I've heard you guys for a long time now.
I've liked all your voices.
I pretended we're all friends.
All this time, you just wanted to talk to your sister? Hey, it's ok.
Do you want us to find bea for you? Would you do that? Will you? Ok.
Number C526 proceed to counter 15.
We're gonna be here for a while.
It's ok, whatever.
We can work on our spiel.
Or we can have time to talk about how this is a very bad idea.
Terrible.
Aidan, come on! Like, we have to do this.
You saw that little girl.
Yes, I saw that girl, and so did you.
But Beatrice can't, so how's that gonna look, huh? "Hi, nice to meet you.
"Just met your dead sister "who was, you know, a ghost and still a child.
" Look, I don't wanna do this any more than you do.
- Yes, you do.
- No, I don't! - Yes, you do.
- I do not! There's something in me that needs to reconnect these two.
If Ramona can see Beatrice, maybe she can give her a message.
She can get closure.
Maybe that'll help her get her door.
Maybe if I help, it'll bring me closer to getting my door.
Wait a second.
Hold on.
This is about getting your door? I have to get back on track, right? 'Cause there's nothing here for me, right? There's more to it than chemistry and attraction, right? And I wouldn't want this to end in a massive disaster.
It wouldn't have to be a massive disaster, if we just, you know, took our time, right, and explored our feelings.
Maybe something like that, right? Wow! Hmm! Guess what? What? - You're an ass! - I'm an ass? You're an ass.
Oh, no.
I wanna hear this.
How am I an ass? Because this morning, you were throwing your life into garbage bags, saying that you need a change, and then we have this moment, and you completely blow it up, which is fine.
Right now, you're pulling me back in! You, sir, are a drama queen.
- Don't call me that.
- You're a drama queen.
You can't have anything with anyone without this weird, sad, twisty-turny story.
Look, listen to me.
Everything that I said was 100% logical, but logic, it goes out the window when your heart becomes involved, and then you just wanna, like, grab someone and hold onto them.
Is your heart involved? If we're gonna do this, then you really can't jerk me around.
You know that, right? Yeah, absolutely.
No more jerking, just exploring.
No more jerking, just exploring.
Deal with it! This guy knows.
Where did Nora go? She went to her own place.
I don't think you're scary, even if you do have a monster inside you.
How did you know that? I told you.
All there was to do in there was listen.
You're gonna be lonely.
You should stay here with me.
Nora's here.
Nora how did you do that? This is Ramona.
Hi, Ramona! Where did you come from? That charming yet creepy room with the bloodstained floor that we discovered this morning, it's, um I lived there.
Yeah, a long, long time ago.
Oh my! Mm-hmm, and Aidan and Sally are out right now, searching for her sister, Beatrice, for some help.
Hopefully, they'll be back super soon.
Well, it's nice to meet you! Uh, Ramona, could you give us a minute? Thank you.
She was in that room this entire time? Longer, yeah.
- Oh my God! - When we bashed through the wall, we must have freed her somehow.
- How? - I don't know.
Magic? Oh my God! Why was she in there? I don't know! Intense ghost denial.
Why was Sally trapped in the house forever? Maybe it's the same thing.
The whole thing makes my head hurt bad, and I haven't even packed up the kitchen yet.
I don't know.
I'm freaking out.
Why are you here? Are you here to turn with me tonight? No! No, I came to talk to Astrid.
Didn't Aidan talk to you? Yeah, he did.
- I told him I wasn't interested.
- Why not? Because, although I'm not a fan of the pack, they may be a better alternative than her running away with a volatile mind-warping vampire.
So you trust Mark, but not Kenny? No, they protect their own, though.
You know that.
When they're not locking them in cages and poking them with cattle prods.
That's why I don't wanna change alone.
I'm scared.
It would feel safer if you were there.
Do you hear what you're saying right now? There was a time when you used to do everything in your power to make sure that you kept me away from danger, and now you're trying to pull me in.
No! No, I'm not trying to pull you into anything.
That's not what this is about.
Listen, I can't I can't deal with this right now.
If you think this is what's best for Astrid, then be my guest but I'm sorry.
I'm gonna go pack.
- Hi! - Hey.
Come on in! Is Josh here? Yeah, he's upstairs.
Uh, but I think just the two of us should talk.
But can I get you something to drink? Water or What are you doing? She's doing what's best for everyone.
Josh! What the hell is that? Nora! I can't let you out.
What? Are you doing this? Sorry, I can't let you go down there.
It's not safe! Ramona, you let me out.
Let me out of this room right now! You don't know what they're capable of! I know they're bad, and you can't fight them like this! Open the door! Once he sees us, he'll come around.
What if he doesn't? Come on, Josh! You can come out.
Josh, buddy? Nora's fine.
We feel really bad for the way things went down, and we've got something to show you.
It's ok.
Josh, open the door.
You've done something great.
It's ok.
But she needs your help.
She needs you to teach her.
Josh? Josh, wait.
Number C612 proceed - Yes! - to counter 5 Please try not to distract me, ok? - Hi.
- Good afternoon.
Can I help you? "No, but I can help you.
" No, but I can help you.
Excuse me? Are you here to renew your permit? No, I'm here to renew your love for your sister.
No, don't say that! That's really bad! You're Beatrice Bensen, right? - Good.
- I am.
Well, this is awkward, um, crazy, in fact.
Beatrice, I am here to say things to your face.
Ok, I'm sorry Things that will make you think that I am a disturbed person.
Um, I'm here to talk to you about your sister.
My sister? You must be mistaken.
I don't have a sister.
Am I mistaken? No, I did my homework.
This is her.
I'm here to talk to you about Ramona.
Ok, listen, I understand this might be painful, but I've seen her.
Uh, well, not her, exactly.
Her, uh - Spirit.
- Spirit.
And, uh, she's in my house.
I'm just gonna start from the beginning.
There's this room, it is hidden behind a closet Saw this guy talking to himself earlier, a real jabber-jaw.
Since you've been there, and I can see - Excuse me, sir.
- That you called security.
- And I get that.
- Here we go.
Come to my house and see for yourself.
Believe me.
I don't know why you're doing this, but if you ever come back here and harass with this nonsense, I'll have you arrested.
Is there a problem? This man is causing a disturbance, speaking gibberish.
Could you come with us? I know I'm invisible, but still mortifying! Ramona loves you! She needs to see you! She's waiting! All right, guys.
For what it's worth, I was impressed.
You've had to speak while being dragged away a lot, haven't you? Look, I just feel bad for the kid.
I really don't know what the next move is.
Oh my God! What happened here? They came for him.
I let Astrid in, and she had a gun.
Then they all followed.
He did this to protect me.
Astrid! She didn't wanna do it.
I told her to run when I heard Josh coming.
She wasn't fast enough.
She wouldn't let me out of the room.
Ramona.
She wouldn't let me out until I changed.
Oh God! This is all my fault.
The spell, I should've finished it.
No, stop! No time for that.
Come on.
Everything's gonna be ok.
He's gonna change again soon.
Yeah, I know.
We both are.
Then go.
I'll clean up.
What are we doing here? We need a place to change.
No, I mean, what are we doing here? Because I needed a place where Nora can lock herself up.
The shed.
I need you both to be safe right now.
Sally, what are you Why are you here? Because I'm gonna try to help you.
No! No more magic! I'm not using magic.
I'm gonna go inside you through possession.
I know, it's a terrible idea, but we don't have any other choice! We're desperate right now.
I don't wanna find out if it gets any worse than this, Josh.
So we do this, ok? We do this.
I love you.
I love you.
So much.
Nora? I'll go.
I love you.
- I love you.
- Go fast.
- Ok! All right.
- What now? I'm gonna poke inside your brain.
All right, so what do I It's happening.
Yeah.
- We need to do this now.
- Ok.
What's next? The Pete stuff, the meditation that you do to connect with the wolf, do it.
No, but that's what got me into this in the first place! Josh, I can't argue right now.
I don't have time.
I need to go inside you, not the wolf.
I need you to focus, ok? Open up a window for me.
All right.
I really hope this works.
Oh! - Josh! - Sally? Josh! Hey! Hi! Hi! What are you doing here? You can't be here, it's not safe.
I know.
We're gonna make it safe.
How? Josh, the wolf, it took you over.
And I tried to get you back, but I think it just split you up inside.
That's why you're in here.
How do you know that? 'Cause it happened to me.
Remember when the reaper followed me around? - That was you! - It was a part of me.
He was trying to occupy my brain while he took over on the outside.
I think that's what's happening here.
How do we get out of here? Ok, we have to find that part of you that's missing, that's gonna make you you again.
No, I don't wanna find it.
Why not? - Because that's it.
- Ok.
Wait a minute.
Run! Josh! What the hell, Aidan? Did you do this? No, I didn't, Kenny.
Josh did.
They came after him, and Josh Astrid! Where's Astrid? She's Kenny, she's not here! Come on.
Ok.
No, of course she's not.
She wouldn't, uh She wouldn't get involved in something like this.
Gary, go get more bags.
The big ones.
What? What happened? Where's Astrid? She's dead.
She told Mark and the rest of them that she was leaving with you.
Mark didn't like that.
She fought them, and then they, uh, came for Josh.
I'm so sorry, Kenny.
I don't know what to say.
I don't even know how to feel.
I don't know what to do.
Yes you do.
Leave.
Leave Boston.
You get away from all of this.
I can't think about that right now.
I get it.
But do you remember the first time that you talked to me about running away? You said that you were only 17 and that you wanted to get out and experience things, have a life.
Kenny, this isn't the stuff that a 17-year-old should be experiencing.
This isn't the life that you were supposed to have.
So you should leave all of this behind and go.
Astrid would've wanted that for you.
- Where are we running? - Nowhere! I just keep running until it's not there, and then I hide.
This is what you've been doing this entire time? Josh! Josh, stop! No! I can't stop, ok? It's still coming! Stop! We have to confront this thing! No! I have, I've been fighting it for months! - You've just been running! - And hiding, yeah.
You need to stop running and hiding.
You have to stop No, I can't! We have to go! It's not safe! It can be safe! We can make it safe again! You are stronger than this.
We can do this, ok? Think of a safe place.
Think of a safe place, ok? You can do it! Focus on it! Focus! - I'm home! - Almost.
Yeah.
Oh God! Thank you! Don't thank me yet.
He found me! He always finds me! I brought it here! I'm so, so sorry! - You know exactly what to do.
- No, I can't fight him! He always wins! That's the problem! You can't fight him.
Confrontation is standing up, looking something in the eye and being honest.
- I don't know how to do that.
- Yes you do.
Look at me.
Look at me, Josh.
Look at me.
You are that wolf.
You are that wolf.
And we need you.
We need you to come back to us.
Ok? Please come back to us.
You have to do this! Do it! Stop! I am the wolf.
And you are me.
We're together through everything.
But it's my life until the moon is full.
You're you! You're good at this.
Ramona, you shouldn't be watching this.
Why didn't you let the other men take her? Is she special? Yeah.
Yeah.
She's really special.
You should go.
What! How did you do this? How'd you get it this clean? I had help.
Oh God! Kenny! Did he see Astrid? Astrid was not here when he showed up.
And Astrid was never here, because she was killed by the pack.
- That's what you told him? - That's what he had to hear.
If he'd stuck around, he would've figured it out.
It would've wrecked everything for all of us.
You lied for me.
I cleaned up.
I mean, that's what we do in this, um, experiment.
Thank you! You all right? You ok? For now.
This is never gonna happen again.
This can never happen again.
I think that's really up to you.
You're always gonna have to go inside.
You're always gonna have to go and confront that other half of you.
Kenny! Astrid? Oh God! Astrid! Sorry.
I ruined everything for us.
No, no, no.
Hey, it's fine.
It's not your fault, I promise! I didn't have a choice.
They found out we were leaving and they made me help them first.
Help them? I took them to Josh But he turned on them.
Josh did this to you? I heard the screaming and I tried to run, but it was too fast.
