Da Vinci's Demons (2013–2015): Season 3, Episode 10 - Ira Deorum - full transcript
Following the Ottoman army's ambush on Crusage forces, Leo must put his faith in his friends and in himself if they're to have a chance to defeat the Turks.
You reached inside my head!
You handed my
plans to the Turks!
You needed to see
what you are capable of.
- This is our reckoning.
- No.
Francisco: The greatest fighting
force the world has ever known.
Laura: This is Prince Vlad.
He has provided armor
to equip our soldiers.
The same armor
used by the Turks.
The city-states are too busy
fighting amongst themselves
to offer worthy opposition.
My brother seeks to
build alliances across Italy.
He needs your help.
Laura: We go forth now to fight.
Not for eternal
glory, but for God
and a united Italy!
From the bowels
of this cursed city,
you hold the sword of God!
You have a visitor.
The Architect: You are
the Minotaur, Girolamo.
You are God's monster.
Show them that you're
a leader, not a ruler.
I am guilty of
what I am accused.
You shall be put to death.
While you fight
for the Ottomans,
I know you were not
born of their ranks.
My brother and I
were taken as children.
I see a bird, but
without a head.
They're designs.
Some sort of machine.
Sophia: The energy focused here.
- The armor attracted it.
- Yes!
What we need to do is just
lure them out into the open.
You cannot risk your
soldiers' lives on a magic trick.
It's not magic.
The Crusade army.
What's left of them.
They tore us apart.
- How many armored carts?
- Nico: Dozens.
Leonardo: That's
our first priority.
Francisco: One way or the other,
this war is coming to an end.
Al-Rahim: Well done, da Vinci.
Well done.
Against all odds,
against your very self,
you trumped innovation
with innovation,
genius upon genius.
I expected no less.
Did you do it?
Did you read from the page?
I told you
I'm done with all that.
Your eyes betray you.
You read from
the text, didn't you?
I'm proud of you.
You betrayed me.
You made me...
a destroyer.
Yes.
But don't you see?
Out of the ashes, a new,
better world will arise.
You don't believe me?
No.
I don't.
Then you will
squander everything.
Do you really think I
plundered your mind
for the benefit of the sultan?
It's time, da Vinci.
Vanquish the Turks.
You know you can.
Then turn your dark
science on Sixtus
and his corrupt Crusade.
Strike now
and you can vanquish
all of your enemies.
Even you?
Even me...
if that is what you require.
For I would gladly...
give my life for your future.
What you have yet to do
is more important than
what you have done.
Save yourself.
Save the ones you love.
The ones I love?
Zoroaster: Get
your hands off me!
All right!
Zo.
Lorenzo?
What is it?
It's nothing.
Do you think it wise...
that your first
words to me today
are a lie?
Forgive me.
I can't imagine what
you've been through,
but I'd be concerned if
you didn't have nightmares.
I don't deserve you.
I'll be the judge of that.
It's not the past
that haunts me.
It's the future.
The decisions,
the choices we make
set our course.
And who knows
where they will lead?
Who knows what we
shall lose along the way?
Whatever the journey,
rest assured
we're on it together.
Lorenzo: It starts today
by sending a message to Rome.
Laura: Is this where you
will perform your miracle?
Apologies. Your
marvel of science.
No, this is the spot.
There's energy in the air.
The power of
nature in the clouds.
The device we built
will gather that force,
focus it,
and then rain down
on what attracts it most.
We must draw the
Ottoman forces here.
As many as we can.
And then pray that those
remaining will surrender
once they see the
power of our weapon.
Did you just say
"pray," da Vinci?
Indeed, I did.
The greatest fighting force
the world has yet to see
brought to its knees by
a man who likes to paint.
You see the hand
of da Vinci in this?
And you do not?
Al-Rahim assured me
da Vinci would join us
or be consumed by
his defeat at Otranto.
Francisco: None of
which has come to pass.
I admit we underestimated
his devotion to a dying land.
Yet that fails to excuse
your gross incompetence.
How one man could
cause so much damage!
I am told he had help.
Survivors of our great victory
over the pope's Crusade.
And a son of Wallachia.
And what of your daughter,
Lucrezia?
I told you,
she knows nothing.
Nothing she will tell
a father she despises.
She is not your concern.
That is for the
sultan's son to decide.
Hello, daughter.
I heard the explosions.
Was there an accident?
It was no accident.
But you already knew that.
How would I know that? You
have me locked up in here.
The soothsayer,
she taught you her
tricks, didn't she?
You warned them,
showed them our armory.
You think I'm a magician now?
Is that why you're here on
the eve of battle, to accuse me?
Or are you looking for an
excuse to remove yourself?
I can see it in your eyes.
You're afraid.
We have crushed their armies
once and we will do it again.
There is but a
handful of them left.
Yes, but that handful
crippled your arsenal.
You underestimate them.
You underestimate da Vinci.
I look forward to
meeting your da Vinci.
I will offer him my respect
right before I run him
through with my sword.
Fuck you.
Keys, keys.
One of these days, I'm
gonna save your arse.
There.
Oh, we did it!
We... we read from the
page with my brother.
- We can save Italy.
- I knew you would.
Is he here?
- Do you have a plan?
- We have to get that thing we built...
into that tower.
Over there.
The streets are
crawling with Turks.
It's impossible.
Yeah, until the
Crusade army attacks
and every damn Janissary
will be called to battle.
Bring forth the guilty!
Bring forth the guilty!
Lorenzo: People of Florence!
People of Florence, hear me!
Today is a sad day.
It is a regretful day.
For today we condemn
a man to death.
All: Yes.
And this weighs
heavily upon our hearts.
For the giving of life
and its taking
should be the purview
of a power much
higher than ours.
Crowd: Amen. Yes.
And yet...
here stands a madman
who has committed heinous crimes
- against my family...
- Man: Yes!
Against Florence...
- All: No!
- Against humanity itself!
And we cannot let such acts
go unpunished.
You find this amusing, monster?
I do.
Immensely.
More madness.
The Ottoman army,
where are they?
Where the hell are they?
They should be upon us by now.
They will be, da Vinci.
Soon you will be wallowing
in spilt Turkish guts.
How can you know that?
Whatever the game,
I could always best my brother.
Your brother is the
Turkish commander?
We were imprisoned together.
Until he betrayed me.
Vlad: Joined a darker side.
Perhaps Allah will be more
merciful than your daughter was.
I warned you all.
She can be a very willful woman.
Now she is loose in the city.
She will be brought to me.
And when she's
found, I will bleed her
like the witch she
conspired with.
Seems they wish
to go to their reward.
Okay.
Okay.
Zoroaster: Shh, shh, shh.
Lucrezia: Go.
Okay.
What can I do?
You can start by
stringing the cable.
Zo, what's your
estimate on the draw
from the top of the
bell tower to the peak?
- I haven't the foggiest.
- I'd say about 60 feet.
Better make it 70.
Where's the entrance
to the bell tower?
That way, up the stairs.
- Access to the roof?
- Well, yeah, if some idiot
wants to climb out onto the
ledge and pull themselves up.
Right.
They really are related.
Proceed with the execution.
The Architect: Beware!
Lorenzo de Medici,
beware!
Are you prepared to
murder a man of faith?
Man: He's mad!
In all due respect, Father,
you have no voice here.
Don't I?
- Many here have heard my words.
- All: Yes!
Careful, Lorenzo. Don't
let him stir their hearts.
Some have even
taken them to heart.
Man #2: Yes!
Unless you come with
a prayer for the dead,
I suggest you let us proceed
with our grim business.
Crowd: Let him speak!
Very well!
Have your say, Father.
A wise choice,
il Magnifico.
For I am merely a precursor,
an antecedent to one
I have been looking for
all my life.
Though a great battle
is raging to the south,
a yet far greater battle
will be fought here.
And God himself
has sent his agent,
his messenger
to aid us in our conflict.
Lorenzo: A messenger of God?
Adding to the moniker of
Monster of Italy, are we?
Girolamo: We are.
You speak of humanity,
yet you have all but lost yours.
You claim my crimes are heinous,
yet who have I killed?
A corrupt cardinal,
more concerned with perversion
than preaching.
An Officer of the Night
who conspired to
keep your people
from the glory of God's Crusade.
And, yes,
the beloved Mother of Florence,
a woman who
betrayed not only you,
but all the good people
of this city.
Emptying your coffers
and leaving you
destitute in a time of need.
In a time of war!
You dare slander her memory!
You dare lie to your people!
I have not lied!
You have.
As a thief in the night,
you have stolen this city.
You have killed those
who opposed you
and endangered the lives
of every man,
woman, and child
under your care.
And now you endanger
their very souls!
Do you not see?!
Do you not see
it is he who lies?
- Man: I believe!
- He who speaks with the devil's tongue!
My family have served
you all for generations.
Do not be swayed by this.
Do not allow yourselves
to be led like sheep
to the slaughter!
Know this, Florence!
Because of my actions,
because of me
you will regain your wealth
in both commerce and spirit
if you submit as I have
to the governance of the divine.
Enough!
God has instituted me
as His physician,
His messenger,
and executioner!
Lorenzo: The
tricks of a charlatan!
He is the one to be feared!
He is the liar!
Girolamo: And I tell you this,
if you observe
what I have told you,
you need have no
fear of your enemies.
For you should always
be more powerful than they.
And God will defend you!
Go!
Sophia, how are you getting on?
Almost there.
- We need to hurry.
- I know, I know, I know.
Here.
Done.
Okay.
Leonardo: Well, then,
where is your brother's army?
Making a fast march
around the coast, no doubt.
You see, his gambit
is to surround us,
cutting off all hope of escape,
then slaughter us mercilessly.
It's a classic move.
What is that sound?
Oh.
Draw your weapons!
For Italy!
Okay, careful.
Brother!
Vlad!
You are no brother to me.
That was your doing, not mine.
You sold your soul to that
monster who imprisoned us.
Use the language of our birth,
not that vile tongue.
- Zo! Zo!
- I'm all right, I'm all right!
Come on.
- Zo!
- Zo!
Shit.
Say goodbye to
your prince, da Vinci.
The signal, where is it?!
Commander!
Leonardo: Pass the order!
Everyone drop your swords
and take off your armor!
It's over. No one
can save you now.
Yes.
I disappointed you.
I'm glad.
I can no longer save you.
I know.
Lucrezia, be careful!
Lucrezia!
No! No!
No!
No!
Wait! My life for her life!
No.
My life...
for her life.
At least give me this.
As you wish.
Al-Rahim: Believe
in yourself, Leonardo.
One man's death opens a doorway
to the birth of the next.
What have you wrought, da Vinci?
Man: Happiness...
is a crimson field...
littered with the mangled
corpses of our enemies.
- We watched you die.
- As you have once before
and undoubtedly will again.
Vlad: Your sorcery
has worked, da Vinci.
They fear your wrath.
Leonardo: Zo!
You all right?
We did it.
You fixed it.
Not me.
Her.
What...?
Leo.
Shh, shh, shh.
Did it work?
- Did we do it?
- Yes.
We saved the city.
We saved Italy becau...
- because of you.
- Shh, shh.
Don't cry.
It's over...
The hurt,
the pain.
You're free.
No, no, no, no.
Please, please, please.
Don't go, don't go.
Don't go.
There's nothing
holding you back.
You're free to create
and to love
and to find joy.
And you have to
promise me you'll do that.
- Promise.
- I promise, I promise, I promise.
I'll meet you often.
No.
No.
Mm.
Bring another bottle!
This is supposed
to be a celebration.
I assure you...
I am no apparition.
I was told Lorenzo had
your head on the block.
Justice prevailed.
Well, then this truly
is a glorious day!
Come. Sit, my boy.
I trust you've heard
the news from Otranto?
Indeed.
Then let us drink to victory.
To our conquering crusaders
and the angels of mercy who
have returned you to my side.
I, um...
I couldn't help but notice
you were not at mine.
Where is the wine?
I'm afraid your
servants are indisposed.
Guards?
Why?
Because I have found the path.
But the only way to
reach my true potential
is to finish what I
started years ago.
I have killed my mother
at your behest.
And now I really
must kill my father
and the false prophet
who has led me astray.
Convenient...
they exist in the same person,
don't you think?
Lorenzo: Shh, shh, shh.
Don't cry.
Everything will be all right.
Now, we may
have lost this battle,
but the war has only just begun.
When you are ready,
we will take the fight to them.
Shh, shh, shh.
Not only will you
be ruler of Florence,
you will sit on
the papal throne.
Shh, shh, shh.
The world will be
yours, Giulio de Medici,
my son.
The world will be
yours. Shh, shh, shh.
Don't look back.
Leo.
That's not the way
to remember her.
I just wanna remember
what we were fighting for.
You're looking at them.
Leonardo: They
have to start again.
We've not lost everything.
No.
Not everything.
So,
what's next?
Next, I...
I think we go home.
Ah.
I've got some
commissions to finish.
And I promised Lucrezia that
I would get back to who I was.
Who I am.
- Florence it is, then.
- Mm-hmm.
Go ahead.
- I'm gonna stay in Naples a while.
- Wha... what?
- Why?
- These people need help rebuilding.
I can be of use here.
Well, you'll be missed.
See you on the other side.
So long, Maestro. Zo.
- Sophia.
- Sophia: Is he all right?
Zoroaster: No. He
left a girl in Florence.
Well, she left him, I suppose.
Right. Uh, first, I'm
gonna build a new studio.
- And a boat?
- What, a boat?
- Why would I...
- A boat.
- A boat?
- For me.
As a token of your gratitude
for all my years of
friendship and service.
Well, I have no need for a boat,
but if you are building things,
- I'd love a library.
- Oh, a li...
Yes, a library for you,
a boat for you. Good.
Good.
- What?
- Hmm?
It's just...
No, nothing, it's
just something...
Something Verrocchio
said to me once.
He said, "People
of accomplishment
rarely sit back and let
things happen to them.
They went out and
happened to things."
You handed my
plans to the Turks!
You needed to see
what you are capable of.
- This is our reckoning.
- No.
Francisco: The greatest fighting
force the world has ever known.
Laura: This is Prince Vlad.
He has provided armor

No, this is the spot.
There's energy in the air.
The power of

The device we built
will gather that force,
focus it,
and then rain down
on what attracts it most.
We must draw the
Ottoman forces here.
As many as we can.
And then pray that those
remaining will surrender
once they see the
power of our weapon.
Did you just say
"pray," da Vinci?
Indeed, I did.
The greatest fighting force
the world has yet to see
brought to its knees by
a man who likes to paint.
You see the hand
of da Vinci in this?
And you do not?
Al-Rahim assured me
da Vinci would join us

I will offer him my respect
right before I run him

Fuck you.
Keys, keys.
One of these days, I'm
gonna save your arse.
There.
Oh, we did it!
We... we read from the
page with my brother.
- We can save Italy.
- I knew you would.
Is he here?
- Do you have a plan?
- We have to get that thing we built...

Over there.
The streets are

It's impossible.
Yeah, until the

Lorenzo: People of Florence!
People of Florence, hear me!
Today is a sad day.
It is a regretful day.
For today we condemn
a man to death.
All: Yes.
And this weighs
heavily upon our hearts.
For the giving of life
and its taking
should be the purview

Crowd: Amen. Yes.
And yet...
here stands a madman
who has committed heinous crimes
- against my family...
- Man: Yes!
Against Florence...
- All: No!
- Against humanity itself!
And we cannot let such acts
go unpunished.
You find this amusing, monster?
I do.
Immensely.
More madness.
The Ottoman army,
where are they?
Where the hell are they?

And God will defend you!
Go!
Sophia, how are you getting on?
Almost there.
- We need to hurry.
- I know, I know, I know.
Here.
Done.
Okay.
Leonardo: Well, then,
where is your brother's army?
Making a fast march
around the coast, no doubt.
You see, his gambit
is to surround us,
cutting off all hope of escape,
then slaughter us mercilessly.
It's a classic move.
What is that sound?
Oh.
Draw your weapons!
For Italy!
Okay, careful.
Brother!
Vlad!
You are no brother to me.
That was your doing, not mine.
You sold your soul to that
monster who imprisoned us.
Use the language of our birth,
not that vile tongue.
- Zo! Zo!
- I'm all right, I'm all right!
Come on.
- Zo!
- Zo!
Shit.
Say goodbye to
your prince, da Vinci.
The signal, where is it?!
Commander!
Leonardo: Pass the order!
Everyone drop your swords
and take off your armor!
It's over. No one
can save you now.
Yes.
I disappointed you.
I'm glad.
I can no longer save you.
I know.
Lucrezia, be careful!
Lucrezia!
No! No!
No!
No!
Wait! My life for her life!
No.
My life...
for her life.
At least give me this.
As you wish.
Al-Rahim: Believe
in yourself, Leonardo.
One man's death opens a doorway
to the birth of the next.
What have you wrought, da Vinci?
Man: Happiness...
is a crimson field...
littered with the mangled
corpses of our enemies.
- We watched you die.
- As you have once before
and undoubtedly will again.
Vlad: Your sorcery
has worked, da Vinci.
They fear your wrath.
Leonardo: Zo!
You all right?
We did it.
You fixed it.
Not me.
Her.
What...?
Leo.
Shh, shh, shh.
Did it work?
- Did we do it?
- Yes.
We saved the city.
We saved Italy becau...
- because of you.
- Shh, shh.
Don't cry.
It's over...
The hurt,
the pain.
You're free.
No, no, no, no.
Please, please, please.
Don't go, don't go.
Don't go.
There's nothing
holding you back.
You're free to create
and to love
and to find joy.
And you have to
promise me you'll do that.
- Promise.
- I promise, I promise, I promise.
I'll meet you often.
No.
No.
Mm.
Bring another bottle!
This is supposed
to be a celebration.
I assure you...
I am no apparition.
I was told Lorenzo had
your head on the block.
Justice prevailed.
Well, then this truly
is a glorious day!
Come. Sit, my boy.
I trust you've heard
the news from Otranto?
Indeed.
Then let us drink to victory.
To our conquering crusaders
and the angels of mercy who
have returned you to my side.
I, um...
I couldn't help but notice
you were not at mine.
Where is the wine?
I'm afraid your
servants are indisposed.
Guards?
Why?
Because I have found the path.
But the only way to
reach my true potential
is to finish what I
started years ago.
I have killed my mother
at your behest.
And now I really
must kill my father
and the false prophet
who has led me astray.
Convenient...
they exist in the same person,
don't you think?
Lorenzo: Shh, shh, shh.
Don't cry.
Everything will be all right.
Now, we may
have lost this battle,
but the war has only just begun.
When you are ready,
we will take the fight to them.
Shh, shh, shh.
Not only will you
be ruler of Florence,
you will sit on
the papal throne.
Shh, shh, shh.
The world will be
yours, Giulio de Medici,
my son.
The world will be
yours. Shh, shh, shh.
Don't look back.
Leo.
That's not the way
to remember her.
I just wanna remember
what we were fighting for.
You're looking at them.
Leonardo: They
have to start again.
We've not lost everything.
No.
Not everything.
So,
what's next?
Next, I...
I think we go home.
Ah.
I've got some
commissions to finish.
And I promised Lucrezia that
I would get back to who I was.
Who I am.
- Florence it is, then.
- Mm-hmm.
Go ahead.
- I'm gonna stay in Naples a while.
- Wha... what?
- Why?
- These people need help rebuilding.
I can be of use here.
Well, you'll be missed.
See you on the other side.
So long, Maestro. Zo.
- Sophia.
- Sophia: Is he all right?
Zoroaster: No. He
left a girl in Florence.
Well, she left him, I suppose.
Right. Uh, first, I'm
gonna build a new studio.
- And a boat?
- What, a boat?
- Why would I...
- A boat.
- A boat?
- For me.
As a token of your gratitude
for all my years of
friendship and service.
Well, I have no need for a boat,
but if you are building things,
- I'd love a library.
- Oh, a li...
Yes, a library for you,
a boat for you. Good.
Good.
- What?
- Hmm?
It's just...
No, nothing, it's
just something...
Something Verrocchio
said to me once.
He said, "People
of accomplishment
rarely sit back and let
things happen to them.
They went out and
happened to things."
