Being Human (2011–2014): Season 4, Episode 12 - House Hunting - full transcript

Previously on Being Human...

I've been here before.

I saw someone got murdered here.

No!

You sold the house?

I'll need your keys

by the end of the week.

- You can't go.
- Who are you?

My name is Ramona.

Did you live here with anybody?

- My mom, my dad, Bea.
- Beatrice?



- Is that your sister?
- My twin.

I'm here to talk about Ramona.

If you come back and harass me...

- Oh my God!
- With this non sense

I'll have you arrested.

Please don't leave me. You're
the only thing keeping me safe.

I can't be the only thing
that keeps you human.

I wanna live a life. I wanna
have a life, with Astrid.

Josh!

He did this to protect me.

Everything's gonna be ok. I'll clean up.

- Where's Astrid?
- She's dead.

She told mark and the rest of them

she was leaving with you.



Mark didn't like that.

I don't know how to feel, what to do.

Leave Boston.

Sorry.

Josh did this to you?

It's time.

You said yourself your
days in Boston are numbered.

And I only want what's best for you.

That's all you've ever wanted, right, pops?

A new city, a new name,
a chance to start over

and finally be whoever you wanna be.

There's a sizeable chunk
of the human population

that would jump at a chance like that.

And I would too, if I had Astrid.

Look...

I know how it is.

When you're a vampire

that's been around for as long as I have,

I have had to face this kind
of loss, again and again.

You're saying it gets easier with time?

I'm not gonna run,

not until I'm facing the one who did this,

looking him in the eye and ending him.

And you know why I have to make sure

that her death does not go unanswered?

See, Kenny, the thing about
revenge is it's a temporary fix.

I mean, it will fill that
hole inside you, sure,

for the moment.

But then,

it will begin to eat away at who you are

until there is so much emptiness

that nothing, no one, will ever
be able to fill you back up.

That happened to you, didn't it?

Yes, Kenny, it did.

It took me the better part of this century

to crawl my way out of it.

I guess we are kind of similar.

We're very loyal to the people
that we actually care about.

You're my son.

And we'll see each other again.

We will. That's how this works.

I hate to remind you of
this, but it's moving day.

Do you have the keys to that van?

It's just things are changing, aren't they?

Change can be good.

You'll see.

The wheels have officially been secured.

I hope you guys are done packing.

Hello, Aidan.

Hi, Ramona. Um, you're still here.

Anyway, um, we really gotta get a move on.

The late fee on a van

that belongs to a secret
vampire organization

is just a little bit steeper than u-haul.

But what about me?

You guys can't just leave me here.

We belong together, all of us.

You know what? Um...

We should talk, as in the adults.

Can you just give us a minute?

- Just a minute.
- Yeah?

We have to do something.

- We can't just leave her alone in the house.
- I know.

I'm meant to help her.

You've done everything
you could. What else...

I know what it's like to be stuck here!

If I never met you guys,

never figured out how to get out of here...

She's been here for 40 years!

40 years!

And you guys are all moving on, and...

- No, I'm not...
- Yes, you are!

And I don't have a life to move on to.

I don't. That's the truth.

Not really, no matter how much
we wish things were different.

So, I'm gonna help her.

Because at least that gives
me some sort of purpose.

Ramona is... I don't know.

There's just something about her.

I can't put my finger on it.

Maybe pushing 11 years-old
and sporting corduroy jumpsuit.

Yeah.

Corduroy is, traditionally,
the mark of the devil.

The night with the pack, like,
she locked me in the room.

And maybe she was trying
to get me to protect myself,

but it didn't seem...

That's what she was doing!

I know what happened was terrible,

but there were guys coming at you!

You know what? Enough of this.

Look, no one is staying behind, all right?

I'm gonna help her. I promise.

We'll talk to Beatrice again,

dig deeper into the family
history, whatever it takes.

Thank you.

I can't stay here.

Ok.

And I can't leave you behind.

Ok, let me talk to her alone for a sec.

She's gone!

Well, then so are we.

Let's go.

Come on!

Why did you stop writing in it?

We lifted the curse. Everything changed.

It used to give you a sense of control,

writing down how you felt after a change.

Maybe it could again.

I'm gonna go get more boxes for my stuff.

You can just put it anywhere.

Josh...

Well, we never really talked about it.

I didn't wanna assume anything,

you know, about what happens next.

Josh...

What happened with Sally, the
meditation, it... it worked.

I know it. I know it. I feel it.

I feel different. I know it.

But still, it's not...
it's not a guarantee.

What happens next

And we're staring our
life as a married couple...

Finally, just the two of us.

Are you sure?

It may take some time,
but we'll get us back.

Well, I've never been so grateful

for my serious lack of
material possessions.

Yeah, it's a good thing
that Nora put a rush job

on the Sally's flesh and
bone wardrobe yard sale...

- Wait, what?
- What?

- She did what?
- What?

If she got rid of my ombr?
tights, so help me, God!

You can't even wear your ombr? tights!

Yeah, well, I could make
sure they go to good homes.

This is really, like, a colossal bummer:

Leaving our home,

the possible loss of my
ombr? tights for eternity.

At least Josh and Nora are back together.

Yep.

You still haven't told me what
you're doing. What's your plan?

I don't know. I mean,
I have a couple ideas.

Don't know.

I'm just gonna, maybe, live
at Pete's trailer, you know.

It might be good.

I can't hurt anyone back there.

And then, you know,

you can do your world
traveling thing, right?

Machu Picchu and the Canary Islands...

I actually don't think I'm gonna go far.

I'm sort of past the wanderlust stage.

I think it's all the dimension-hopping.

Or...

Maybe it's the fact that
everything I care about

is right here in Boston.

All right, absolutely,
yes, ok, look, look, um...

I'm an idiot.

I can establish that I'm an idiot.

It's established, yep.

Um...

There is plenty of space in Pete's trailer,

especially for a woman who
literally takes no space.

Aidan, wait, are you asking
me to move in with you?

Mmm, technically, I think
I'm asking you to haunt me.

What about me? What about me?

What about me? What about me?

What about me? What about me?

What about me? What about me?

What about me?

Let me guess this straight.

You are taking the coffee maker?

- You are taking the microwave?
- Yes!

- ...all of the cookware...
- Yes.

- Your use for these items would be?
- My use?

You are there when i discover the popcorn

setting for blood nuking!

It was awesome!

Take the microwave!

We'll take the microwave!

Guys, stop!

This is technically my house!

Yes, it is.

It's my house, and what
the hell am I living with?

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing, not
even my ombr? tights!

Oh Will you please give it a rest?

Enough, for real!

Also, are you forgetting

that you can't use or touch, said items?

- Why would you touch the items?
- Is that really...

- I touch them. Everyday.
- This is a work of art!

It's supposed to be admired and adored,

not used, in any traditional sense.

Look at him, look at him, look at him.

He's just gazing up at us,

all full of love and admiration,
hope, passion, rigidity.

What are you talking about?

- Okay listen...
- Can we talk about this?

But he needs... he deserves a good life.

He does.

You're building a home.

- We're squatting in a trailer.
- Wait a second!

We'll provide for him.

- You should take him.
- Really, yeah.

- We gotta talk...
- Aidan!

Fine, visitation rights.

- Well, yeah.
- Ok?

Naturally.

So, here's my question.. Where
are we eating lunch after this?

- I'm starving!
- Please!

Please don't go.

Whoever comes next,

they won't be able to see me.

Who will I play with then?

Uh... jus...

Whoa!

Uh...

Beatrice! Ramona, it's your sis...

Come on in.

Oh, are you moving?

Uh, yeah, we are.

You caught us in the
middle of it, actually.

Um, you said you saw my sister,

that Ramona was still in the house.

Because if that's true,
if it's really true,

then I need to warn you,
I need to warn all of you.

I'm sorry, warn us?

Something terrible happened here.

My parents, Carl and joy Benson,

they moved into this
house before I was born.

They weren't good people.

Uh...

Can you expound on that?

Please.

One night, at one of their parties...

Hmm.

they made a new friend.

And he persuaded them

to join a group, a cult, really.

They worshipped the .

- Ah!
- Oh, really!

- Paimon?
- I know!

I know it sounds crazy.

It's not exactly something I lead with

when meeting people for the first time.

- A demon, like, a vampire?
- No!

He's one of the kings of hell,
sort of a henchman for Lucifer.

Lucifer, the devil, big red guy?

Uh-huh.

Sorry, I don't mean to...

I just... we, the group of us,

have a very healthy understanding

of the supernatural.

Yeah, what he said.

Listen, um, demons, as we understand it,

they always offer something
to their followers.

They offer riches or
eternal life. What was...

Pretty solid recruitment points.

Well, according to my parents' friend,

Paimon would reveal to them
all the mysteries of the earth.

Sure, yeah.

Was that it?

But he required an offering,

a sacrifice.

Lucky for Carl and joy,
they were pregnant with twins

when the group decided to evoke him.

I did lie to you.

I had a sister.

My parents raised me with
everything a kid could ask for.

Can I go play?

Eat your broccoli please.

But they never accepted my twin.

They kept her upstairs in a secret room.

They never introduced her to the world.

I... I tried to play
with her whenever I could,

whenever they'd let me.

My parents never even gave her a name,

but I did.. Ramona.

And what happened to her?

When we were about 10,

my parents threw another party.

A little smoky?

And in the morning,

when I went upstairs to play with Ramona...

She was gone.

They boarded up her room.

They told me they gave Ramona away.

They threatened me.

I could never speak of her again.

But you know what happened
to her, don't you, Beatrice?

No! Let me go!

The blood of the child revives us!

No!

I didn't find out

who my parents and
their friends really were

till many years later.

- What happened to them?
- Things didn't end well.

Bea!

Ramona! Ramona! Now's your chance.

You just have to tell them
what you wanna say to her.

Ramona! Is that really you?

Anyone else have a theory

as to why old Bea here can
see ghosts, some ghosts?

We're twins.

Our bond is stronger than death.

I had started to forget
what your face looked like.

I'm so sorry.

You let me die.

No! No, I...

Sure, you were happy to have
someone to play dolls with

every other afternoon,

but when that night came,
you let them murder me!

Ramona you gotta listen to her
story. That's not what happened.

It's not her fault.

I didn't know! I was just a little girl!

Yeah, she's right, look.
And it was 40 years...

I know how long it's been!

Ramona, listen to me.

You just need to forgive your sister.

That's what's standing
between you and your door.

You just forgive your
sister, and you move on.

I know it, I know it.

- Oh!
- What are you doing?

Ramona, wait!

- Oh my God!
- Ramona, no!

Ramona!

What the hell did you do?

She's not part of our game.

- We need to get out of here!
- Now!

Let's go! Come on, come on!

Hello, Aidan.

Hello, Aidan.

Josh, where are you?

Where are you guys?

Thank God you're here!
What's happening to us?

Hello?

Oh my God!

Henry?

You lived through the virus?

Oh my God! It is so good to see you, Henry!

It's impossible.

No, that's not possible.

Henry, no, no, no, no.

Um...

Vampires can't be ghosts.

You're wrong, Aidan.

I'm finally free.

Reveal yourself.

Ok! Yep, that just happened!

Hi! Keeping it pretty
tight for a history teacher.

Thanks.

Yes, I can see you.

I've always been able to see you, Sally.

I just never had a problem
ignoring you until now.

You c-can't be here.

You couldn't be.

It's me, Josh.

You died.

Jules, the night I watched you go

was the worst night of my life.

And that's saying something.

You got your door.

Tell me what it's like.

No, you can't know any of that,

not now, not until it's your time.

I came back 'cause I
know where you're headed.

I can see everything.

You need to listen to me.

Lives depend on it.

Emily, how did you get in here?

I needed to talk to you, alone.

Of course, let's talk. What's...

It's important.

Are you drinking?

Rehab didn't quite take,

but they say it's pretty
common the first time around.

We're here for you.

You know that. Anything you need.

You know what the most intense part

about all of it is, the dry out?

It's the sheer volume of therapy.

Talking about yourself incessantly,

day after day after day.

But I'll admit,

it taught me something
about why I am the way I am.

We were doing ok, the
Levison clan, you know?

Uptight, sure,

perhaps unhealthy preoccupation
with psychoanalysis

around the dinner table every
taco Tuesday, absolutely.

But Josh started spinning out of control.

I remember when I first found this thing...

I thought he was a headcase,

but nothing a steady stream

of my dad's psychotropics wouldn't fix.

It isn't easy, being what we are...

But we make it work.

Please!

Josh hasn't made it work.

He's done nothing but indulge
his own messed up impulses

and ruin a whole lot
of lives in the process.

First, there was Julia, then me, my family,

and now you.

Emily, he's my husband.

He took your life!

He was selfish, got too close,

and now, he stole your future.

He's only getting worse.

We're undead! We don't have a soul!

- Not in the literal sense.
- No, no!

When a vampire dies an absolute death,

there is nothing.

It's why we fight the end

with everything that we have.

It's why... it's why I
haven't had the strength to...

I know, when the virus first affected me,

I thought about it too,
putting an end to the suffering,

but I couldn't.

Yeah, right? Exactly.

It's against our nature.
But Henry, I... I don't...

But now you know that
there is an afterlife,

even for us.

I know how you suffered.

I've watched you for almost a century.

Aidan, join me.

Prove that you are strong,
and you will be free...

Of all of it.

You could always see me?

Some humans are more
open-minded than others.

I'm sorry. You and Aidan broke up!

I've always known that
there was something going on

between you two.

Well, no, there wasn't.

I mean, yeah, there were,
like, feelings, and...

There was something, but...

How do you think this little
love story is gonna turn out?

A zombie and a vampire,
now, that's tricky enough,

but you sort of missed that
brief, corporeal window.

I know about the wolf,

that he's taken you.

No. No, that's not true.

I have control over it now.

Josh, you gotta stop lying to yourself.

You murdered a group of
people just a few days ago.

You brutally eviscerated them!

You think I don't remember that?

I think you don't care, not really.

I think that there's no trace left

of the man I fell in love with.

I will never forget what
I did to those people.

I know what it's like,

to see the wolf take you over.

No, the eclipse, that was different.

I couldn't control myself.

No, you couldn't.

Tell me, please, do I hurt someone?

Do I hurt... Do I hurt Nora?

I told you, not until it's time.

So what do I do? How do I keep her safe?

You need to take your life.

Take it to save hers.

Nora i know what he did to those people.

No, you don't understand.

He's got it under control now.

He's working so hard.

I know you're afraid of
him too. I can feel it.

What if I told you

that you could find out
everything he's really thinking?

Everything he's hiding from you.

No, he doesn't write in there anymore.

He hasn't for a long time.

Really, 'cause that's from this week.

You tell me if that sounds
like a man in control.

You guys can't even touch each other!

Aidan and I, well, we did
quite a bit of touching.

As much as I love this girl
talk, I'm just gonna go.

Aidan told me he'd never
been with anyone like me.

Those kind of feelings don't just go away.

What are you trying to say, Kat?

He doesn't love you.

Why else would I be in this house?

Why are you doing this, Ramona?

Where are my friends?

What are you doing with my friends, Ramona?

He doesn't love you, Sally!

Ramona!

Ramona, please!

Why are you doing this?
I've been trying to help you!

You think you can pull
this crap on another ghost?

I'm more powerful than you,

and you know it.

You still think I'm a ghost.

You didn't play the game.

All the others wanted to play.

I thought we were friends.

Yeah, well, all that went out the window

when I watched you kill a blood relative.

Please, Sally. Please stay.

Yeah, not a chance in hell, kid!

We're all leaving,

especially now with this new
Carol Anne crap you're pulling.

Doesn't matter, not really.

None of you have a choice.

I'm not just in this house, Sally.

I am this house.

You have to do this Aidan.

You know it's your destiny.

I can still make a difference.

Don't you think it's well past time

to retire the "reluctant vampire
with a heart of gold" act?

You must know by now

that all you bring to this world is misery.

Not to everyone.

Well, let's see.

To multitudes of strangers,
innocents around the globe,

to your own offspring.

To every woman you have
claimed you've ever loved.

I've tried, Henry!

You, of all people, you
know that I've tried!

And when's the last time you've slipped up?

Right?

But now you know there's
something beyond this world.

That's why I came.

If you could take it all back,

save them, all of them, wouldn't you?

Yes. Yes, I would, absolutely.

You know that, Henry.

Then the next best thing is to save those

who have yet to die by your hand.

You think I wanted this?

I had no choice over what
happened to me that night!

I am dead because of you.

You destroy everything
and everyone you touch!

But you can change that.

Pick up the knife and end it, Josh.

Nora will move on.

Pick up the knife and save her.

This isn't my destiny.

Nora is.

No! No!

"The rage grows everyday.

I try to push it down and focus
on everything good in my life,

but there are moments, too
many, where it takes over,

and I'm not myself.

I'm only anger, and the
urge to kill becomes a need."

Josh!

No, I can't read any more.

We need to stop him from killing again.

I made a promise.

I signed up for all of it, for life.

I love him, too, Nora, but
my brother is a murderer.

Can you honestly tell me

that you feel safe for a few days,

let alone a lifetime?

And what about what's growing inside you?

Do you really think you
can protect your baby?

- How did you know?
- It doesn't matter.

But now you understand that
I'm trying to protect you both.

That baby is my family too.

After you died, the boys moved in.

A vampire and a werewolf.

The carnage jackpot.

And the longer they stay, the
more bodies keep piling up.

I mean, this week alone has been
like an all-you-can-eat buffet.

So now you see why I
couldn't just let you leave,

why I had to fight for you.

You killed my brother.

I so hate change.

Unfortunately, I've had to accept

that all good things must come to an end.

Because now we're leaving,

and because there's nothing
you can do to stop us.

I do hope you'll reconsider.

The spectral company is a comfort,

but the others,

I mean, if they plan on leaving,

I'll have to take my
blood where I can get it.

You're gonna kill them.

Sally, they're as good as dead.

Ok. Ok.

Where you are now, is it any easier?

I can feel the sun.

You can be with Sally.

I know how you feel about her.

This is the only way.

You can be with Sally...

... forever.

Good.

She'll be waiting for you.

Ok.

Josh is gonna love this
baby with all of his heart.

Then why haven't you told him?

He essentially killed your first child.

I don't see why this one
should be any different.

Nora.

Sally!

She can't help you.

How long have you been here?

Nora, whatever you think
is happening right now,

whatever you think you see, it's not real.

Don't listen to her.

None of it's real.

She's right. I have to protect the baby.

Nora, it's the house right now.

Nora, listen to me! It's the house.

- It's getting in your head.
- The house?

You have to believe me.
You need to listen to me.

- No, but Emily...
- Emily is not here!

There's nobody here!

Nora, look at me. Yeah.

Listen, listen. Look at me.

Look at Emily.

Sally, what's going on?

I know, I know, I know.

Look, you need to go find Josh right now.

I'm gonna go find Aidan, ok?

What's happening to me?

Now! They need our help now!

Go! Go!

Ok.

Go.

Aidan, stop!

Don't listen to her. She's scared.

It's only natural. She'll get over it.

This is all for you. We have a chance now.

Whatever it is you think that you heard,

whatever you're thinking, it's all a lie.

It's all a lie.

I need you, ok? Please!

Please?

Please don't leave me!

Please don't leave me!

All right, what the
hell is happening to me?

Oh no!

No, no, no, no!

No, no, no...

Oh God! Oh God!

Oh, Nora!

Oh God!

She was right.

All this death,

it was always me.

Oh, I'm so sorry!

I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!

I'm so sorry, baby! I love you so much!

I should've done this a long time ago.

I love you. I love you!

Josh?

Josh, what are you doing? Stop it!

- What's going on?
- No! No! Oh my God!

- Stop! Put the knife down.
- I'm so sorry!

Don't be sorry! Whatever you
think is happening is not real.

It's all my fault!

Put down the knife!

Please look at me! Look at me!

I'm here! I'm here!

I'm here! Please!

Please! It's gonna be ok.

I'm here. We're gonna be ok.

Just put down the knife, please.

You're not a ghost!

All of us are gonna be ok.

Josh!

You ok?

We gotta go.

Let's go!

Ok, I'll explain that later.
We need to get out of here now!

Come on, everybody.

Aidan, come on!

Wait! Just hold on for a second!

Oh my God!

Oh, zero improvement!

- What is going on?
- Do you see what's happening?

Every door we go through
leads to the wrong room.

This wall is now sealed up

after a giant,
sledgehammered hole was in it

10 minutes ago.

It's the house!

What the hell are you saying? What?

Why don't you shut up and
let her explain, Aidan?

Guys, Ramona's not a ghost.

She's the evil of this house, personified,

and she's not letting us out alive.

That's the condensed version,

but I can tell you all get the gist.

You know what, Ramona? You lose, though,

because nobody here offed themselves,

nobody killed each other.

Our bond is stronger than you.

So I guess you didn't really
think about that, did you?

I have time.

Look at that. Soon enough, I'll have help.

Aidan?

Aidan, it's me!

How the hell did he get in here?

Open that wall.

You open that wall right now!

Wait!

Aidan, wait. Don't!

Hey! No!

No!

Hey, pal! I said I'd help you out,

but now is not exactly the best time.

Stop it. I'm gonna give
you one last chance.

Tell me the truth.

The truth?

Buddy, I don't want any secrets.

Stop lying!

I know Josh killed her,

so stop lying to me for once.

Ok, Kenny, please, just
listen to me for a second.

What? What could you possibly
say to me right now, huh?

I have been listening to you.

I followed you, and I trusted you

and you told me that there
was a special bond between us.

You remember that?

Yeah, and I meant that.

What happened to Astrid,
I'm heartbroken. I really am.

And I wanted to tell you, but I was scared.

I was scared of how you would react.

I was scared of this.

I was scared that it would come between us.

Josh is what's between us,

and you choose him again and again.

I would never choose Josh.

Look, what Josh did...

That's not who he is.

He regrets it, and he's
gonna carry that guilt

for the rest of his life.

I don't care. That's not
good enough for Astrid.

Maybe not.

But what good is gonna come of this, huh?

Look, I already told you that revenge is...

Is what she deserves. I know.

I loved her.

And unlike you, I honor
the people that I love.

But first I have to kill you,

so I don't have to hear another
lie come out of your mouth.

You don't wanna do that.

And this is gonna sound crazy,

but I gotta get you out
of this house right now!

We have to do something.

You should be able to
get out of here, right?

I can't! Her control is beyond me.

I can't get in or out.

Why would you do this?

Why would you let Kenny in?
What purpose does he serve?

You killed Bishop, got your vengeance.

Now's my turn.

Circle of life or something, huh?

It's happening,

just as it was meant to.

One by one, you will all fall.

- Aidan!
- Baby, hold on!

Wait a sec. Did you call her "baby"?

Ah, we have something in common.

We both love dead girls.

Hold on, hold on!

Admit it! Admit that you were
never a true father to me!

Admit it!

Don't you see? This is why I did this!

I did this for you!

I rebuilt this town for you.

Oh my God!

Hey, no, no, no! Don't move, don't move!

Look at me, look at me.

Just stay calm. All right?

Um...

Oh, this is it.

No, no, no.

Everything's ok. Everything's ok.

No, no. This is ok.

I was ready for this. I have been.

No, no, no. We're gonna fix this.

Trust me! Trust me!

Shhh! It's ok.

I mean, I got to live a lot
longer than I was meant to,

and I got to be with a beautiful girl

even for the blink of an eye.

But it happened, and it's
always going to have happened.

Listen, just don't move, all right?

I've... I've been
through worse, believe me.

All right? We're gonna fix this.

Guess we have something else in common now.

Sally's gone.

She's gone.

What?

- Sally's...
- No, she's not.

No, she is. Sally's gone,
and Josh destroyed her.

He ruined the one good... The
one good thing that you had.

This is what he does.

This is all Josh's fault.

It's all Josh's fault.

Oh!

Oh God!

Guys.

By all means, join him.

I lied for you.

Aidan.

And now my son is dead.

And Sally!

Aidan!

It was the one thing

that gave me any hope!

When I send you forward,

you may bounce around in
time a little bit first.

It was the one thing that gave me any hope!

Josh! Hey!

I know you're confused,
but I can explain this, pal.

This is on you.

No.

Aidan, no. Don't do this!

Back up right now! I can explain this.

- This is on you.
- Stop!
