Fortitude (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 12 - Episode #1.12 - full transcript

Tech department
have enhanced this GPR

Scan and you won't believe
what Pettigrew found.

If it's not Jason, then
it's someone ruthless enough

To cave a man's skull in.

Does he think I even care

About that stupid drill... Now?

Jason's really sick.

If larvae are passed
into a living host,

Then that host is food.

The trouble with larvae is
you don't know what they are

Till they pupate and hatch.



there in the day, come to me

straight into my arms

I tried to caress it

ooh, ooh

but it ran
through my fingers

ah, ah-ah

water will keep running

rivers will turn

water will keep running

and rivers will turn

water will keep running

and rivers will turn

water will keep running

and rivers will turn.



Don't come in!

And don't, don't make noise!

What the fuck are those things?

They were inside her.

Came through her skin.

Are they stinging you, Vincent?

When I move, they stung.

Wasps.

Parasitical wasps.

If they get out,

This will spread.

We have to kill them all.

How do we kill them
without killing Vincent?

Natalie, we have
to kill them all.

G-gas...

Gas, gas...

G-gas.

We burn them!

Come on!

Okay.

Is this, uh...

An explosive mix?

It's oxygen and hydrogen.

Very!

Oof!

Okay.

Okay.

The delivery valves!

Open the delivery valves!

Okay.

Once the room is filled,

How do we ignite?

Wait.

Wait!

Vincent!

Vincent!

Help! Help!

Okay, okay!

Okay!

Okay.

There you go.

Vincent?
He's not breathing!

Okay.
Um...

Don't you die on me!

Have you got a knife?

Yeah.
Okay.

Yeah.

It's anaphylactic
shock.

His throat's closed!

Here.
Okay.

Hold his arms.

Don't let him move.
Okay.

It did it!

Good.

Good. Good.

It's okay.
We've got you.

It's okay.
It's okay!

It's okay.
We've got you.

It's okay, it's okay.

I've got you.

Oh...

It's okay.

I'm so sorry, Margaret.

Zero-one-six-nine.

Eight-three-one-five.

Eight-three-one-

Five-zero-one-

Six-nine.

Shovel!

X marks the spot.

Yeah.

Come. Come, max.

Where do you think
the treasure is?

What treasure could be
buried out here?

Fix this.

Fix it?

What's wrong with it?

It doesn't fucking work.

I don't want to die...
Down a fucking hole...

Starving in the dark.

So fix it.

Parasites
that lay their eggs

In a live creature,
a live host,

Then they hatch and consume the
creature from the inside out.

Margaret Allerdyce
was eaten alive

From the inside out by...

Insects?

I think they're wasps.

Wasps?

Wh-where have
these things come from?

Well, they're
prehistoric--

There's no recorded instance
of a human

Ever being parasited
by an ichneumonidae.

So this is the first...

Time this species
has been in contact

With a human population.

Because fortitude
has only been inhabited

For a hundred years.

They're way older than that.

So where could they

Have come from?

Permafrost.
They could

Survive, frozen
in the permafrost?

If they were in
a larval state

Inside something else,
something that

Protected them.

So we have to
find Jason?

I'm gonna take you home,
sweetie.

Your dad'll
stay here.

Do his job.

We'll go home.

You and me.

Back to England.

You'll see your dad
when he visits.

Just like when he was a soldier.

That will be best, won't it?

Everything
how it was.

That'll be best.

Come on.

Yeah.

Jason never
showed you this?

Never mentioned
what he'd found?

No, I've never seen that thing
before in me life.

You know
he attacked

Natalie Yelburton?

Jason's out there

And the whole town is
in a state close to panic.

Where would he go?

If he was in trouble?

Where would he hide?

He'd come home to me.

He's not himself.

Hanna
mummy?

Jason found

The remains
of a mammoth.

Now, we think those
remains are hazardous.

Infectious.

So we're all in danger,
Celia, all of us.

Especially Jason.
Could you please...

We must find him.

There you go...

Come on.

Hi.

I am required to ask you

If you feel safe in fortitude.

I am required to ask you

If you have any plans
to leave fortitude.

Are you seeing anybody?

Is that an official question?

Elena?

Forgive me.

In my head.

The way
I felt...

About you.

Caused all
this pain.

Please forgive me.

Perdóname.

Por favor.

Okay...

Yep, seems to be working
fine now, all right?

Shit!

Have you told anyone?

About this place?

No.

Max?

Fuck.

Put the gun down.

Get down to your knees.

You! Hey! Hey!

don't give me this shit,
do as I say, now!

On your knees!

Max!

Max!

Motherfucker!

Why don't we settle this
like real men?

With pleasure.

We put down the guns...

On my count.

One.

Two.

Three.

Like real men.

What? Motherfu....

Get up!

Oh, motherfucker!

Listen.

Okay.

Okay, listen
to me.

Please.

It was brought
to me by fate.

The glacier hotel
is a shit.

A piece of
shit. It will

Never happen!

It is not possible!

The glacier...

Moves!

You cannot build
a hotel on it!

Your wife

Is a crazy woman, man.

A crazy bitch.

I knew

you'd love me as long

as you wanted
mm-mm.

and then someday

you'd leave me for somebody

new

worry

why do I let myself

worry?

wondering

what in the world

did I do

oh, crazy

for thinking...

Listen.

Why don't you...
Help me...

With dig.

Help you?

Yeah. Yeah,
yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

We go... Down to
the treasure

And bring
the treasure...

To surface.

What treasure? What treasure?

You know what treasure!

Pettigrew found the treasure under the ice!
I don't know

What the fuck you're talking about.
Don't lie! You know!

This is...

They killed Pettigrew for this map.
What?

Bill pettigrew found it,

And
this is

The place.

Come on!

Eric, we found Jason.

We have him under arrest.

Right. I still need
to talk to him, so...

Okay.
Thanks, Ciaran.

Listen, I know
what happened to you.

The thing you found

Has made you
very, very ill.

And I know
that the mammoth is real.

You found it, didn't you?

Jason,
would you look at me?

Now, I need you
to tell me where it is.

Jason, you are the only one
who can help us all now.

When you tell me
where the mammoth can be found,

All of this will stop.

Everything
will be fine again.

Listen, Jason,

I'm going to trust you now.

I'm going to unlock
your handcuffs.

Governor, he might
be dangerous.

Give me
the key.

Okay.

So, Jason,

Where is it?

Where's
the mammoth?

Cold store.

Behind the supermarket.

Thank you.

Poor boy.

These...

They are the reason
for all this?

The ichneumonidae.

Charles Darwin
considered their life cycle

To be inimical to the notion
of a benevolent creator.

I see.

A loving god could not have
created something so wicked.

Or so he thought.

Parasitical
wasp larvae.

Frozen, inside the mammoth.

30,000 years.

Permafrost thaws.
Frozen wasp thaws.

Wasp injects eggs
into human bloodstream.

This is what happened
to Shirley?

Yes, the eggs develop
inside the host.

The host is compelled
to find a victim.

Hacks open
their thoracic cavity.

Vomits.

Larvae develop
inside secondary host.

Wasps erupt from Dr. Allerdyce
and attack...

...Attack scientist.

That's the best hypothesis

I can give you based
on available data.

Subject to revision.

And they are
inside him now,

These little eggs?

Don't know.

Hello?!

Are you down there?!

And what if
this theory is nonsense?

What if gentle Shirley allerdyce
attacked her mother

Because for years
her mother had belittled her?

What if Shirley was
reacting to me?

And I am cause of her pain
and self-loathing?

No.

What?

He said no.

No?

We always seek excuses
for our baser selves.

We're always victims
of circumstance.

Not responsible.

Well, maybe when we do bad
things for good reason,

We must still face
the consequences.

The child is
in torment.

A father takes action.

Will there be no consequences?

You.

And you.

You cut Shirley open

To further research.

Will there be
no consequences?

We had no choice.

Hmm.

Well,

It is not wasps

That should make one doubt the
existence of a benevolent god.

It is us,

His children.

Jason, they've done it.

They've set the thing on fire.

They've done it.

Ronnie's in the house.

Jason?!

We've identified a pathogen,

And we've identified
a marker in the blood

Which will tell us whether
or not someone's infected.

Well, that's what
I'm saying, Alstad.

We can prevent
an epidemic if we...

Listen, I'll call you back.

Look, I know...
Please let me speak.

Oh, god.

The only thing

That I ever cared for
in my sorry life, Hildy, is you.

I betrayed you.

My love.

My only love.

I miss you.

I miss you so much.

I got your drill back.

Thought you might need it.

Eric...

Elena?

Elena, I got frozen bolognaise!

We can have spaghetti.

Elena? Elena?

Elena?

Elena?

Elena, are you okay?

Can I come in, please?

Who did this to you?

You're really hot.

I'll get you some water.

Elena?

Elena?

Elena?!

Elena?

Elena, where are you?

Cordon off the area.
Yes.

I'm so sorry, Celia.

He said that "Ronnie's
in the house."

Ronnie?

Mm.

Dan?

Oh.

Oh. Oh.

Oh.

Ah.

Elena!

Don't do this.

Please. Don't do this.

Please.

No!

Dan. Ronnie Morgan's house.

Shooting and stabbing.

News?

Very few
of the 60,000 known species

Of ichneumonidae
achieve sexual maturity

Within less than 48 hours.

So the chances are

That you were
only stung.

Multiple times
in multiple places.

But there is a chance

That there are no eggs
in your bloodstream.

Chances?

We'll know.

We'll know in a day or two.

I'd be dead already
if it wasn't for you.

You know what?

It was quick thinking.

Gas.

Explosion.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I'm here.

I'm here.

Motherfuckers!

I think about you
all the time.

You're all I see.

The darkness...

And the daylight.

All the time.

her thoughts
went high for me

the police
still seek for me

her thoughts
won't fight for me

oh, please just finish me

ee, ee, ee, ee, ee.
