Charmed (2018–…): Season 2, Episode 5 - The Truth About Kat and Dogs - full transcript

Mel and Maggie attempt to find a missing Macy with a spell while Harry uses a different method allowing Abigael to help him access his subconscious in an attempt to connect with his dark side.

Charmed...

HARRY: But you need to jump!

Go now!

Do it!

MEL:
There's a shape-shifter
out there

who looks exactly like you.

HARRY:
My fellow Whitelighters.

They're dead.
I'm the last Whitelighter.

You're a demon.

a demon.

Allow me to introduce myself.



Abigael Jameson-Caine.

Daughter of Alistair Caine,

half sister to Hunter Caine,

both of whom
your family murdered.

You've got to be kidding me.
(grunts)

The sentinel. They're rumored
to live on the astral plane.

MEL:
Then let's go find
the sentinel.

SENTINEL:
contains

the greatest secrets and spells.

Book?

No.

But you can.

Just remember,
nothing is without consequence.

It's Helen, right?



Oh, my God.
You're a Whitelighter.

NURSE:
Helen's quiet. It's her sister

that's the problem.

(screams)

(gasps)

HARRY:
That thing in there,

she's part of you.

Macy, it's time to go.

Harry's here. Go. Go
through the portal.

Where's Macy?

She's not with you?

We saw her leave
with you. Unless...

It wasn't me. It was him.

My darklighter.

(wolf howls)

(metal clanging)

Where is she?

Where's our sister?

Don't know what
you're talking about.

We know you've got
a witch here.

Are you working for
him? The darklighter?

Just give her up,
and there won't be any trouble.

Want to ask me a question?

Come a little closer.

We'll stay right here.

(roars)

Caeca hunc daemonem!

Caeca hunc daemonem!

(screaming)

Damn witches blinded me.

We have an antidote.

Tell us where Macy is,
and we'll give it to you.

We just want

our sister back.
(screams)

(roars)

There has to be...

some kind of deal...

we can make.

What kind of deal?

(grunts)

(screaming)

Mel, no!

What did... what-what did...

what did you do that for?

He was our last lead to Macy.

I saved your life.

Maggie, look.

WOMAN (muffled):
Help!

Macy?

Help me!

Macy?

(gasping)

Thank you. Thank you so much.

(crying):
Thank you.

Oh, God. Thank you.

No red dots anywhere.

Well, while you
were in Clay City,

I went and checked
on the last two.

One in Jacksonville,
the other in Provo.

Witches in trouble, yes,
but no Macy.

What was that demon even doing
with her in a barrel?

Marinating her, most likely.

A small sect
of Malignants

have gone... well,
a tad cannibalistic.

Once they get a
taste for witches,

their appetite is insatiable.

Good news is you saved that
woman before she became lunch.

Yeah, and the bad news
is no Macy anywhere.

How is this possible?

Could the darklighter
have cloaked her?

Or worse?

Don't go there, Mags.

Perhaps it's time you do.

"Dead" is the word
you're so assiduously avoiding.

Macy is not dead.

You sure of that?

The other Harry has had her
for, what, 36 hours?

That's plenty of time to...

I swear, if you don't stop
talking now, we will... you.

MEL:
I'm telling you,

Absum Veri,
which I'm pretty sure

I still remember.

Absum Veri?

What is that?

A tracking spell.

Very powerful and also banned.

How do you even know about it?

Well, I spent some time
studying the list

in the back
The Book of Shadows.

Those spells are banned
for a reason.

Absum Veri
was found not alive.

Hey.

Guantanamo guards.

You can't keep me in this
containment spell forever.

Even demons have rights,

and I have things
I need to do.

What kind of things?

I'm not sure your imagination
could handle them, Perky Peanut.

What did you call me?

Perky Peanut.

Pretty Pony.

Primping, Prancing Princess.

I can see why my loser brother
was so taken with you.

I can see why my loser brother
was so taken with you.

Parker is not a loser.

He's decent and kind.

Exactly.

He walked away from ruling the
Primordials. He was too weak.

Ignore her, Mags.

ABIGAEL:
Ooh.

Angry Spice has spoken.

Enough.

We need to focus.
We're running out of time.

I'll scour
The Book of Elders

for information about
the darklighter,

any clues as to where he
might have taken Macy.

And we'll take our chances

Absum Veri.

Mel.

Macy is missing, Harry.

Banned or not,
this is our best shot.

Sorry, Harry.

I agree with Mel
on this one.

(Maggie sighs)

Perky Peanut?

Half sister demon's
really starting to piss me off.

Still looking
for a "shut your piehole" potion

for her.

Mel.

Hi.

Oh. Uh, Maggie, this is Kat.

She helped us find a path
to the astral plane.

Oh. Sounds like
it was a real trip.

Yeah. About that...

have you had
any weird residual...

side effects since then?

Uh, like what?

Images of... worms.

What's going on?

What is happening?
Get them off of me! Help!

Uh, no.

(chuckles)
No side effects.

Kat, I'm sorry
to have to rush off,

but we've got
a sort of family emergency.

Maybe we can grab

coffee later?

Of course.

Nice to meet you.

You, too.

Yeah.

(sighs)
Okay, what was that?

I thought you said
she didn't remember anything

from the astral plane.

She wasn't supposed to.

Well, what happened there?

Can we please just
stick on task here?

Absum Veri

requires us
to say an incantation

over three items belonging
to the missing person.

We need something
that Macy dreads,

something she denies herself,

and something she desires.

The dread

should be specific
to her and current.

(indistinct chatter)

MAGGIE:
What are you doing?

Pouring out the exact number of
shots I can take before I say

something I regret.

She dreads
being out of control.

Do it.

(sighs)
Okay.

Now for what
she denies herself.

Dairy?

Remember the almond
milk incident?

Oh, yeah. She went ballistic
when we ran out.

(sighs)
Okay.

Now what she desires.

It's obvious. Family.

Career.

She wanted that job at the
Bioethical Research Lab

in Ann Arbor.

No.

I mean, yes, her ambition,

but Macy's deepest desire
was growing up with her mother.

She accepted that.

People don't just accept loss
overnight, Mel.

Look, I'm sorry
to pull rank here,

but I'm the empath,
and if anyone

understands emotion,
it's me.

ABIGAEL:
Tantric sex takes less time

than whatever it is
you're doing.

This is supposed to
help me translate.

Every time I pass over the text

dealing with Whitelighters,

it disappears.

(sighs)

Guess the Elders
didn't want Whitelighters

to see it and learn the truth

about their naughty
darklighter selves.

Book.

Perhaps the truth is lying
somewhere else entirely.

Stop playing games.
If you know something, speak up.

Macy's in danger.

anything.

But I'm guessing

if you share the same origin,

it's conceivable you share
a psychic connection of sorts

where you know what he knows...

and vice versa.

Well, even if
you were right,

how to access
that connection?

Start at the beginning

where you and he were created.

I'm trying.
The Elders wiped my memory.

(laughs):
Oh, yes.

And deleting porn
cleans your hard drive.

Please.

What if I could help you
access them?

Your memories.

The good, the bad
and the ugly.

How?

You bust me out of here,

and we'll talk.

Nice try.

Don't you see?

We share a common enemy, Harry.

He came after me, too.
I want him dead as much

as you do.

Stop talking.

I'm trying to concentrate.

Well, the clock is ticking.

Ticktock. Ticktock.

Hesitate long enough,

Hesitate long enough,

and it might be too late.

Oh, come on. Come on.

Oh, damn it.

(sighs)

Against my better judgment...

(indistinct chatter)

What are you doing?

Remember,
my demon magic doesn't work

in your precious command center.

Now, before we do this, I have
some legal liability forms

I'll need you to sign.

That was a joke.

Look, what I'm about to do
is dead serious.

I have a special skill

that demons in my family line
possess.

You will experience joy
and pleasure,

but you may also experience pain

and suffering.
And it will feel

as real as it did
when it actually happened.

Are you prepared for some pain
and pleasure, Harry?

Yes. Just do it.

Gladly.

Where are we?

So, welcome... visionary.

(scoffs)

Somewhere in here,

smothered under layers

If you can access him,

well, that might lead us
to where...

Where he took Macy.

Who's that?

(panting)

There was a woman.

She was right here.

Seems there are

some things lurking out there
you don't want to face, Harry.

But if we're looking for psychic
connections to the darklighter,

you're going
to have to go deeper.

How, exactly?

Time to break down your walls.

Considering it's you,
it might take a sledgehammer.

Come on.

Let's go find out what's
in the dark recesses of Harry.

Please stop.

If I do what you ask,
will you leave me alone?

Fine, then.

To your son?

What did I do?

I gave up on you being faithful

But another family.

Another family.

Please.

their first attempt,
which went very badly.

it was too dangerous

to give the dark halves
a corporeal form, so they...

They locked them
