sync & corrections by ovelheiro The day they moved in was the best day.
It felt like the start of something new, something good.
After everything that had gone so wrong with my life, they walked through that door and they brought possibility.
Look at you, Julia child.
If you're alone in the kitchen and you make a mistake Who will know? Someone's in the house! When you look back at your life with a person, sometimes you wonder: "Would we be friends if we met now "Or did the path that we went on together "lead us to this place? "Did every triumph or mistake along the way "make us fall in love?" I kissed him too soon! I think that everything happens for a reason: Love, life Josh, Josh! Even death.
I hold on to this place for a reason, and that reason is now.
Aidan! I lied for you, and now my son is dead.
And Sally? Aidan, I'm right here! It was the one thing Aidan, no! That gave me any hope! Ok, listen.
No, this is on you.
Listen, I Aidan, no! Don't do this! Aidan, back up right now! - I can explain this! - This is on you! Stop! This isn't happening! God, this isn't happening! This is just some crazy accident.
It's never an accident.
Shut the hell up! What? How did you do What the hell just happened? I bought us some time.
Josh! Open this door! Open this door! - My g - Open this door! There's gotta be some way we can snap him out of this! It's Aidan! He's in some kind of trance! I think it's what Kenny did.
- What? - My God! Open this door! He's gonna break down the goddamn door! - My God! - No, I sealed it for now.
I sealed it, but, Josh, he's not gonna stop until he kills you.
- What? - What? I said open this door! This has happened before, all of it.
I've seen it.
You saw this? - I saw him come after you.
- You saw Josh die? We have do something! Yeah, we gotta find a way for him to be himself again.
And how the hell do we do that? Sally, you can't do magic.
If that's what you're thinking, stop! We'll figure it out! Nora's right! It's too dangerous! So what am I supposed to do? - I don't know! - Just leave you? That's not happening! I can't do that to you! Open the door! Open this door! So what, then? - What if he wasn't a vampire? - What? Right! What if we were in Paris right now, Sally? I feel like it's all been leading up to this moment.
It's all been leading up to stopping this.
- Guys, I love you.
- Sally I'm making the decision.
Sally, what are you doing? - Sally, don't - Sally! - Josh - Hey, pal, I just wanna talk.
Aidan! My God! That was your plan? What did did you kill him? Can guys get him on the bed? Come on! My Sally, what are you doing? Sally, what did you do? There's always a sacrifice.
- I can feel my heartbeat.
- Sally My God, Sally Nora, I want you to know that I'm gonna be watching.
All the beautiful moments, I'm gonna be watching.
You're gonna be so good at it! Josh Listen.
It's worth it.
I want you to have the life you deserve.
I love you.
No! Sally Ramona.
She was mine.
It wasn't supposed to happen like this.
None of this should have happened! She was my favourite! She brought me back! And we were gonna be here forever, and you ruined it! You ruined it all! She What just happened? Does that mean she's gone? I don't know.
But we need to get out of here right away.
- Are you ok? - Come on.
Ok, come on, come on, come on.
Let's go, let's go.
Somewhere along the way, we grew up, and the idea of what was home changed.
It wasn't what our parents built for us.
It was what we made for ourselves, those small moments of who buys the milk and who gets the mail, who makes you smile on a terrible day.
Where we were, that was home, that was family A place where we could shut the door and keep the world at bay.
A thick silence in a room that fills up the space of someone you love.
We can all stay here.
No, no, I wanna give you guys some space.
We don't need s-space.
Aidan, after everything that's happened Yeah, you do.
It's ok.
It is.
I'm gonna go to the trailer, like we planned, like like I planned.
All the times we Found her, all the times she clawed her way back from whatever was happening No, not this time.
I felt her go.
Although, it would be just like Sally to do something epic right now and rip her way out of your chest.
God, that would be awesome! I'd love that so much.
I don't know what to do.
I know I'm invoking my grandmother here when I say this, but when was the last time you ate Food? - My God! - Right? - Are you sure? - Yeah.
It really, suddenly, tastes good? 'Cause it's not like you haven't eaten.
I've seen you nibble your way through meals.
Yes, and it all tastes like dirt! But you don't understand.
Look, I spent 200 years drinking nothing but blood, so, I don't know, half-cooked beef, seems like a good segue to me.
We should get you chili fries.
My God, he just became human.
He's already trying to kill you! - No, I'm not! - No! Listen to me! I want those.
I want them badly.
I want them in my mouth now.
Make it happen! Can you make it happen? - Ok, I'll order.
- Thank you! But I'm not holding your hair back when you vomit.
It's just so strange.
Even if my eyes are just a little bit weaker, and even if I'm moving a little slower, even if there aren't enough cheeseburgers on this planet to fill the hunger, I mean, just, to just be It's spectacular.
And Sally had to miss it And so, it's wasted on me.
I'm gonna have Nora get you the sriracha chili fries.
Come here, buddy! Come here! You're a good guy.
Sally I thought that you'd be here.
Ok What are you doing in here, miss? Do you have some parents or something I should call? 'Cause, um They left a long time ago.
You shouldn't be in here.
This is really dangerous.
There's broken glass everywhere, there's nails - Wanna see my room? - No! I I don't wanna see your room.
What miss, I've got work to do! Miss! Miss? Hello? This isn't in the plans! It's my secret.
What is this? They shouldn't have left me alone.
But that's ok.
We can send them a message.
This is crazy.
I've seen it, but never quite experienced the anxiety of worrying about a test result.
I just don't understand how this is happening.
Really? I mean, after everything we've been through, this this is what surprises you? Really? I'm not meant to be alive.
But you are! I saw it happen, what Sally did.
She gave you life.
Yes, she did.
She made me mortal, but, um, I think it's about that time.
I mean, look at this.
I've got the heart of a 90-year-old man, which ain't bad, all things considered.
It's everything, Aidan.
Your liver, kidneys Your body's shutting down.
Yeah.
You didn't need to smile at Larry the lab guy.
I could've told you that.
How long you figure I've got? I'm amazed you're standing here right now.
See, I was thinking about a week.
Come on, Nora, what do you say? Can I talk you into a week? I think it might be good.
I know it's kind of a weird thing to circle back around to restaurant work, but Well, it's not bussing tables.
You'd be cooking, right? Yeah, that's right.
I'd be on the line.
It'd give me something to focus on, you know? That's great.
Yeah? You don't seem super enthused! I mean, I know you didn't wanna marry the onion guy, but it's not that.
I think it's great for you, honestly I do.
Yeah.
And you love cooking, so it's Exactly.
It'll ground you.
Ok, so why do I feel like we're living in an eastern European silent film right now? - Hey, hey, it's ok.
- It's not ok.
Josh is making plans, which is great, but we should all be making plans! Guys! What the hell's going on? Guys! I got a week to live.
That's That's not something people say in real life.
Yeah, but I'm saying it to you.
I don't understand.
Did we really think that I would just come back and be human with no consequences? What has ever led us to believe that life is that simple? Is it something in Sally's spell? No, it's the years that I cheated.
They're all catching up with me.
That's all.
"That's all.
" Like it's nothing! No, it's that's not what I mean, Nora.
I mean if I've got a week, well, then let's live that week, you know? Let's be together! Let's find something to laugh about.
Let's eat a little less meat.
Or let's celebrate your baby! That's what I care about! - What? - I never said anything to you.
Ok I thought that you knew and you just weren't telling me.
I just ok, look.
What happened is, I smelled it, you know, when I was still me, and I I smelled the extra blood.
The heartbeat I could hear the - Heartbeat? - And it's a good heartbeat! Come on! This is a good thing, isn't it? I'm just gonna give you guys a minute! This is why I didn't know how to tell you.
How are you feeling? Are you ok? I am.
I wasn't sure this was what I wanted, after everything.
Yeah.
But I do.
It's intense! It's like this primal feeling just took over, and I know that I could do this.
Are you ok? I know that it's crazy.
Yeah We should be institutionalized! We're having a baby? You're very good at this.
Well, no, it's you! I don't have to do anything.
Bartender! Can we get another one over here? - I couldn't.
- Yeah, you can! Last one, all right? And then I'm coming back.
So, what's the plan, chief? What's the plan for cleaning up? What are you gonna do with the body, all that? Excuse me? Look, junior, 40 minutes from now, you're gonna find yourself crumpled on her bedroom floor, every drop of her blood in your belly, no idea how you got there, no idea what to do next.
What are you? I'm you, give or take 200 years.
- Are you serious? - Yeah.
My God, humans are stupid! Ok, listen, listen, listen.
You need someone to check in with, and get on bagged blood.
You hear me? Bagged blood.
It tastes like ass, and you're not gonna want it as much, but it will dial down your intake.
That worked for you? Nothing worked for me.
So, seriously, how do I skip all this and get to be you? No, because I already know I can't do this.
I'm not a monster.
How can I become human again? It is something that I've wanted for decades, for centuries.
That's all I could think about.
"How can I be the man that I was?" - Yeah.
- And now All I can think about is, going back.
- Very, very good! - What the hell? Yeah! Now, listen to me, son.
You're going to turn me.
I'm gonna take that job.
Why? It's just, working in a restaurant is We're having a baby.
I can't pull restaurant hours.
Well, we'll figure it out.
It's what you wanna do.
Yeah, I know, but I can find another job.
But it's not just about the job.
This was something that was gonna make you happy.
Yeah, but, I mean, well, we're having a baby! And does that make you happy? What? Of course, it does.
I'm elated.
I just wanna think about this practically.
I mean, I can't take a job that takes me away from the house for 18 hours a day.
Besides, you know, I was thinking, um I was thinking about maybe trying some kind of medication.
- Josh - Whatever the closest you and Sally already talked about this.
You can do this yourself.
You can already do this.
- Nora - You don't need medication.
Nora I killed 9 people last week.
You did it to protect me.
Aren't you scared? Doesn't that scare you? I mean, you are gonna be this amazing force, this incredible mom! Aren't you scared? I mean, what if I freak out? What if I what if I panic? What if I hurt the baby? No, Josh.
You can't just say no.
None of that scares me, 'cause I know who you are.
And I trust you.
But I need to know that you can trust yourself.
Aidan wanted me to meet him at this bar.
You do what you need to do.
Hey! Hey, hey! Get off him! Hey, hey! Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa! Josh, let him go.
Let him go! Well, I didn't ask for this.
You weren't even fighting! It's ok, Jeremy.
Go on, take off.
Want to explain? Not particularly, no.
I don't think you'd understand.
Don't start with that.
Everything's gonna be fine.
It's not gonna be fine! It's not gonna be fine! You have a week left to live! You've got the insides of a geriatric.
You can't just go spilling your blood like it's 1955 and you're king of the world! You fought for this! You fought for this, and Sally gave it to you, you selfish son of a bitch! I'm afraid to die, Josh! I'm afraid to die.
I have one week, Josh.
One week, if that.
And do you wanna know what happens after that, Josh? Nothing! Nothing happens! Because vampires don't get doors.
No happy endings for us! I am afraid to die! You're not a vampire anymore.
Are you kidding me? You're not a vampire.
Are you kidding me? Listen to what you're saying! You really think that a blip of humanity is gonna wipe the slate clean after centuries of monstrosity? No! No! So I saw my chance, and I took it! It turns out that I'm a coward.
No, you're not.
You're a human.
It's gonna be ok! It's gonna be ok! Yeah! Hey, buddy! Hello.
I got you your favourite, triple everything.
No.
I can't handle one more triple everything.
Actually, screw it.
Give me triple everything.
I know you.
Man, you want this.
Absolutely! Now, where is that neighbourhood section? I'm looking for something like: "Top 10 historical gems in Boston".
That would be fun, right? - I don't know, would it? - Come on! I would think most people, if they're told they have a week left to live, they might wanna, you know, travel the world, get laid.
- No.
- What? There was a murder of a construction worker.
- Ok.
- In our house.
So.
What the hell are we doing? What's the plan here? I don't know, but it never felt right running away.
We gotta go back to that house.
- No, you're right.
- Yeah.
Let's do it.
Yeah, except why don't you let me do it? What the hell are you talking about? Would you stop that? I've been thinking about it.
I've got nothing to lose.
You've got everything to lose.
Yeah, and you're part of that! Yeah, but you've got Nora.
You've got a baby coming.
You've got a life.
- That's a lot, Josh.
- I'm not gonna value my life over yours.
And I'm not asking you to, but someone's gonna make it out of this.
It wasn't Sally, and it ain't gonna be me.
It's you and Nora.
You have a chance.
You know you're not gonna win this, right? I'm not gonna let you do this alone, ok? I'm not gonna let you do it! All right, all right, all right.
But if we really wanna win this, we gotta go in prepared.
So when we get in town, just drop me off at the nearest corner.
I'm gonna find some stuff.
Meet me at the house in an hour.
You better talk to Nora, because she's gonna wanna don't worry about it.
I got it.
One hour.
Sorry, Josh.
Ramona.
Well, there you are.
- I see you got my message.
- Yep! I did.
But you gotta know there ain't nothing left for you to win.
I'm mortal.
I'm just an old man with a few days to live.
And let me tell you something, little girl.
I ain't gonna be draining anyone's blood anytime soon.
You did a pretty good job while you had the chance.
I want you to know that Josh and Nora and their baby are gonna be moving far away from here.
They're going to live a life.
And Sally, Sally is gone.
And you, well, this old house, your hold over it, well, it certainly can't last forever, can it? Someone else will move in, and as you can see, accidents happen.
Maybe.
Or maybe the four of us, supernaturally cursed as we were, moved under this roof for one sole reason: To bring you down.
And you think it's gonna be you? You like to think of yourself as some kind of hero, but really, you're the worst of them all.
All this tragedy, it's on you.
Sally was the one who brought me back.
But you're the one that fed me, with all the blood you shed.
You're the real monster here.
I've lived with my regret.
And so that's enough? I'm not catholic, Aidan.
A few hail Marys won't get you out of this.
The blood of this house is on your hands.
That's a real neat trick.
And now, you can choke on it.
This won't take long at all, old man.
You really think you'll be saved just because you'll die a mortal death? I assume nothing at this point.
But you're hoping.
Maybe you're just a man now, but you were a serial killer for centuries.
You think there's a door leading to some kind of heaven after the blood you've shed.
I've lived my life.
And this is my death.
I've died for my family before.
I'm happy to do it again.
When the end comes rushing up at you, And everything that you thought was real starts to fall away, you consider the meaning of the life that you lived, and you realize that the only thing that means a damn thing at the end is what you loved.
And you think of who you love, and you let it take you home.
We need a car over to make a pick up at Sir, step back a little bit.
My God! My God! There's nothing left.
I don't want you I don't want you to ever question.
I never want you to worry.
I'm always gonna be there for you.
For us.
For the baby.
Let's just hope that you two don't screw it up.
Aidan! You know, historically speaking My God! The children of psychiatrists put a lot of issues on their kids.
How did you do this? How was this possible? I don't know.
Um It's such a weird thing.
But you know what? It's ok.
It's worth it, because we won.
So, this is what that looks like? Winning? - Yeah! This is us winning.
- This is it? No, but it is, because look at you two.
I mean, this is what we talked about, right? So, then, what now? Are you gonna come haunt us at our house or what? No, because that's weird.
- That's weird? - I'm not doing it! Now that you're dead, it's weird now? Yes, it is, because, look, the place that you're living in is kind of small, Josh, and I need space.
I need to, like, spread out.
I need to move around.
And come on, I can't go soft, just because I'm dead.
I don't think you can come with us anyway.
Well, hey, this can't be for me.
It's for you, man! And don't think for a second that you don't deserve it.
Ok, listen to me.
Um, all of the years that I've been alive, these last few, they were the best.
I don't know there was some rough stuff in there.
No, no, no.
They were the best.
We love you.
We will live a ridiculous life in your honor.
Aidan! Finally! She's there! How are you? You're seriously gonna ask me that question right now? This smells delicious.
Is there really nothing I can do? What you can do is honestly sit there and let us cook you dinner for once.
- I can't do that! - I know it's killing you.
Look, you're making a mess! I know what I'm doing and I think it's a mistake to let a Jewish werewolf loose on a crustacean.
That's racist! The day we moved in was the first day of my life.
Before then, before them, I had no chance.
I didn't think I could feel human, feel love, the little things coffee grounds, laundry day, sleeping late, living life thank you for every small moment of this world.
- No, the lobster lives! - Not on my watch! The lobster lives! I just had an amazing dream.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
I dreamt of them.
Me too.
The four of us all together.
It was nice.
Do you think it's actually them? Do you think we just dream about them because we miss them? No, I think it's 100% them.
They're sitting on a cloud somewhere, dream-weaving.
- Dream-weaving.
- Yeah.
- What time is it, anyway? - I don't know.
We left the pies in the oven.
God! And our children are running wild.
Sally! What are you doing, honey? Aidan! You wanna play tag? You spying on me, you crazy kid? Look! You want pie now? You crazy kid! What are you doing, man? Aidan!
