Cryptid (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Chapter 2 - full transcript

- Do you really believe he killed him?
- Who knows?

I don't know,
someone said Niklas had a knife.

More information will be provided by
the principal later today,

and since...

since the canteen is closed off,

from now on,
lunch will be served in the gym.

Do you think he did it?

Please take your seat, Niklas,
we're waiting.

So, today I want you to find themes
connected to water...

Axel, listen to me.

The technicians haven't found
any traces of explosives,



or gunpowder.

They don't even know
if there was an explosion,

since Niklas was totally unhurt.

Someone saw Sebastian swimming
in the lake that morning.

But he didn't show up at gym class.

So there's an hour when nobody knows
where he was.

I'll let you know when I know more.

DO YOU STILL WANT TO PLAY TODAY? 3

DON'T KNOW IF NIKLAS IS UP TO IT?:(

NOO I HEARD TIM'S TALKING SHIT TOO!
LIKE THAT NIKLAS KILLED SEBBE ETC

So fucking creepy.

- It's so crazy.
- I don't get how he's still here.

- Can I sit here?
- Yeah, of course.

- Amina.
- Niklas.



- Are you new here?
- Yeah. I started yesterday.

Okay.

It's not easy making friends
at this school.

I'm not used to it.

No... it's a bit sensitive around
here now, but it'll get better.

What do you mean, "used to"?

We've moved so much
it feels like I'm on tour.

Or, how I imagine it feels.
I haven't been on tour.

- You know what I mean.
- I don't know, but I think so.

Hey, how's it going?
Meet Ester and Tuva.

- This is Amina.
- Hey!

- She's new here.
- Ah, welcome.

Welcome to
the world's weirdest school.

- We play in the same band.
- Ah, okay.

- How are you?
- I'm okay.

- When's practice, then?
- So you can handle it?

Yeah. Why wouldn't I be able to?

- What are you called?
- Fuck You.

That's the band name.

- Amina?
- Yes, this is Emil.

Yes, I'm Emil. Amina's twin.

What?
You don't look particularly alike.

- No.
- No. We're Irish twins.

I was born in January, and she was
born in December the same year.

Our parents were a bit, um...
They liked one another.

Or, a lot, then. They were poor
and wanted family benefits. All that.

- But who are you guys?
- A message from the principal.

We're all shocked and saddened
by recent tragic events.

But we must now, somehow, move on.

Sebastian was
a clever and brilliant student

who will be greatly missed.

It's hard to understand
that he is gone.

Especially for you
who knew him best.

The police will be coming
to ask questions.

And if anyone knows anything
or has seen anything,

there is now a hotline
you can call.

And the school counsellor's door
is open

for anyone seeking support
or needing to talk.

It's important to talk to one
another and support one another.

Thank you.

Niklas!

Wait! Wait.

- Niklas! Where are you going?
- I'm going home.

- But we were going to practice.
- I can't handle it.

Everyone thinks I'm sick
or something.

Going home won't improve things.

You usually don't care about that,
do you?

And I hear mum talk on the phone.

The police aren't even sure an
explosion killed Sebastian.

No, but we know he's dead anyway,
don't we?

SEBASTIAN 3 MERAL

- Anything else?
- No, thank you.

Hello?

- Hey.
- Niklas!

Amina and I are going to
that burger place, Warehouse...

- if you wanted to come with us.
- Oh yeah... um...

- No, I'm going to practice, but...
- Well, come after if you want.

- Yeah? Maybe. See you.
- Good.

- Have you seen Ester?
- I think I saw her at the bikes.

Okay.

Hey, you! Fuck face!

Come here, I wanna talk to you.

- About what?
- What did you do to Sebbe?

I asked you a question.
What did you do to Sebbe?

- Nothing, I was just closest!
- You must have done something!

Fucking clown.
Come on, let's go.

- What was that about?
- Nothing.

- Message to all units...
- Can I go now?

We need a car to the lake
immediately.

24-07 here, I'm on my way.

Hello?!

Niklas?! What are you doing?!

- What the hell was that?
- A drum solo.

Come on, Niklas, what the hell?

No... fuck this.

No. No! We really have to practice.

I saw the tent here earlier today.
And then I came back because...

it just felt weird.
And that's when I found the eye.

But what were you doing here?

I was sketching.
Trying to find inspiration.

- And you didn't see anyone else?
- No.

What do you think could
have happened?

Hard to say.

But I don't want to speculate
before we've found some evidence.

- Do you think it's a human eye?
- Drop it.

This is a police matter.

Sebastian says hi.

- Hey! Stop!
- Fucking murderer.

What the hell are you doing?
Stop it!

Seriously...

- Are you okay?
- I'm not done with you, you hear?

Hey? Are you okay?

I heard you'd found something
by the lake.

Oh yeah. Everything's fine.

- What are you looking for?
- I'm looking for Mum's diaries.

Oh, well they're not here!

I don't understand
why you'd want to read them?

Hmm?

Do they work? Do you talk to anyone?

Oh yeah. The other day
I talked to a researcher from Tokyo.

What did he say? Or she?

He said that people
are headed for their doom.

I don't believe that.

I'm just going to get something.
Then I'll leave again.

Okay.

I find it hard to grasp.
He just exploded by himself?

- I don't know.
- I don't get why Thomas...

- His name is Tim.
- Same difference.

Why Tim is bothering you.

Seems like the whole school is.

They think I've got
something to do with the explosion.

- But... you couldn't have... what?
- Why didn't the school shut down?

I don't know.

And my dad is the school principal.

And it seems like everyone's
just going about their lives.

- But thanks for your help.
- Of course.

- See you tomorrow.
- Bye.

You've been so absent today.

Is it Niklas?

I had sex with Sebastian
the morning he died.

Don't hate me.
I don't know what to do.

I have to tell Niklas
but I don't know how...

No! Don't say anything!

Hey?

Everything is shit...
and Sebastian...

No! Sweetheart.

It'll be okay.
Just... don't say anything.

Okay? Promise you won't say anything.

- Okay.
- Okay.

But... don't you wonder
what could have happened?

No.

I don't know why you... Shit.

I don't get why you go there all the
time, that lake is fucking creepy.

Mum was always there.

Yeah, that's sort of what I mean.

She was there all the time, every
fucking day, because she was sick.

And you go there to find inspiration,
don't you think that's a bit weird?

But shit, you like death and anxiety,
I almost forgot.

I've seen your pictures.
They're fucking disgusting.

I want to know why she was there,
don't you ever wonder?

No.

Hey, do you know where
Mum's notebooks are?

Is that why you're home? Dad
thought it was because you missed us.

Do you know where they are, in the
basement with her other things?

Can you drop it?

You can't come home after years
and just tear open old stuff.

We're trying to move on,
we're trying to let go of it.

Mum's dead anyway,
so what the hell does it matter?

Niklas!
