From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series (2014–…): Season 2, Episode 2 - In a Dark Time - full transcript

[santanico] and now begins the ancient word.
The sun sleeps below the sky,
And the world turns upside down.
In the night, we make our feast.
For centuries I danced for them, the blood-gatherer,
The bringer of souls.
I've brought them the lost ones,
The troubled ones, the desperate ones.
Now I am free,
And the world turns upside down again.
They are thirsty for revenge,
And nothing will stop them.
No boundaries, no borders.
They will come for me,
But I am coming for them.
Their empire of blood will fall,
And I will not rest until it all burns.
Let me tell you something.
I know you habla ingles, so don't give me that look.
I am not your enemy,
And I am not your friend.
I am simply here for what is mine.
I understand it was yours,
But due to the unwritten rules of this life that you chose,
It now belongs to me.
So I'm gonna take it.
This is who I am, you understand?
It's what I do.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Adios.
[carlos chants indistinctly]
[chanting in spanish]
Holy shit, you're back!
Oh, my god.
What did you do?
Jefe.
Jefe.
A trucker?
That the best you can do?
Jefe, it's carlos.
He's free.
He beat the labyrinth. Don't ask me how.
Can't wait to hear all about it.
You gotta take care of the hide.
Never know when I'll need it.
[speaking spanish]
That's hardcore.
You've been reeducated.
Show me what you've learned.
The bonds.
You had the gecko brothers steal them for you.
There's a message hidden inside them,
A prophecy about a source of blood that will feed us all.
"and a storm of blood shall come
Unlike anything the world has seen.
It will quench our thirst."
The rest is... Porquería.
If you ask me, all prophecies are gibberish,
But everybody wants to believe them.
What can I do? I play along.
Tell me what it means!
Did you ever watch that show with the mexicanita and her backpack?
-What? -This is a waste of time.
Dora the explorer.
It's a cartoon. The girl, she has a monkey.
They do these things.
-He's lost it. -The bonds are the map.
-I'm the map. -A map to treasure buried in nonsense?
Jefe, it's pointless.
The labyrinth turned his mind to mush.
The guy with the answer, he's close by.
I know because I brought him here,
Along with los hermanos gecko.
He's trapped in the bowels of this place.
He's playing us, jefe.
Find him, carlos. And find the answer.
And you can have narcisso's job.
[freddie] hey! Hey!
Hey!
Help! Help, I'm in here!
I'm in here!
[audible exertion]
Oh, thank god!
You screwed the pooch, ponch.
And by the way...
Earl says sorry doesn't cut it.
[buzzing]
Gonzalez.
Wake up. We got big doings out here.
What?
Just get out to the quarry. I'll see you soon.
What are you doing?
I got called in.
I can't wake up with these stupid shutters.
Just got to keep 'em shut, especially at night.
'cause some bad guys threatened you?
They're really bad guys.
Ranger, you're soaked!
It's your turn to take her to daycare.
Really?
Yes.
[baby cries]
[baby coos]
[baby babbles]
[softly] hi. Hi, sweetie.
Okay. We'll see you later.
Bye, sweetie.
Okay, bye.
[indistinct police radio chatter]
-It's them. -You sure?
I mean, they're pretty crispy.
I can confirm without a doubt that these
Are seth and richard gecko, the infamous bank robbers,
The most infamous criminal duo in texas history.
The scene does have the makings of a contract killing.
An investigation will ascertain which group is responsible.
Thanks.
I don't know why I lied.
[chuckles] damn.
Even that's a lie.
I know exactly why I said it.
[seth] you're making a big mistake, ranger.
I'm going to drop this stake and walk out.
None of you better come after me or my family.
I followed them to the gates of hell, earl.
I did.
But I couldn't finish the job.
I've got to protect margaret and billy.
But there's something else.
Did you find any symbols?
Symbols?
Yeah.
Messages? Markings? Anything?
Freddie, you've got two dead felons
Looking like a couple of chicharrónes.
You're looking for a message?
No, man, no message. Why?
Now I can't escape the feeling
That something's coming.
And I can't stop it.
I need your help to see it...
Before it hits.
[screams]
God!
Aah! Aah!
[grunts]
[gasps]
[gasping]
[indistinct background chatter]
They're not done yet.
You said they would be.
Tomorrow.
I don't have that kind of time.
I'm on the clock.
What?
Listen.
I'm leaving.
It's best we don't start anything we can't finish.
Doesn't have to be the beginning. It can be the end.
Maybe if things were different.
See you tomorrow.
Fast as you can.
It's the wrong key.
No, it's a bump key.
In a perfect world, they'd have a snap gun for this.
This is mexico. We've got to make do.
Watch. Like this.
It's all in the reflexes.
Now you try.
Did you see the safe?
I did, yes.
It's a good score, kate. It's gonna play.
If we work out all the moves.
-We've got to review 'em. -Trying.
This beauty school dropout,
She's got a direct-to-dvd bodyguard watching the front.
That's tocayo.
The collector's supposed to have another guy, chino.
Splendid. Any other surprises?
Rafa says they sit there waiting for the collector to do his thing.
I'm sorry, rafa?
Rafael. I-I told you about him.
Yeah, he's my connection on this whole thing.
Your connection?
You been reading paperback originals?
He is going to be our lookout.
The last thing I need is another mouth to feed.
[television newscaster speaking spanish]
[newscaster speaking spanish]
That doesn't make any sense.
It's richard. He's trying to throw off the cops.
[television shuts off]
Again. Go.
[frustrated grunts]
[sighs] congratulations. We're both dead.
No wonder he left you.
Excuse me?
No wonder he drove you both off a cliff.
-Who would want to work with you? -Okay.
No mas. I'm calling this whole thing off.
You're not ready.
Every spidey sense I got is tingling
In every nook and cranny from eyeballs to balls-balls.
-Nice. -Forget it.
-We're gonna wait. -Wait for what?
Get another tattoo? Or for you to go on another trip?
Want to shoot more heroin?
You're angry because richie left. You don't know what to do.
He didn't leave.
He was taken by something nasty and unholy.
And real. They're out there.
Pretending they don't exist isn't gonna make them not exist.
You know another thing?
I didn't just lose my brother, I lost my dad, too.
[sighs]
He begged me to kill him, and I drove a stake into his heart.
You don't see me shooting myself full of poison.
[lock clatters]
[sighs]
[sighs]
You never told me that.
[scott] they're dying to know how you did it.
[carlos] did what?
Beat the labyrinth.
They say it makes men insane.
Eat their own shit, drink piss.
Haven't had to do that since the 16th century.
So what did you do in there?
Why'd they make you take your fangs out?
They didn't.
Wait, what? You mean you actually--
[distant bestial shrieks]
You really think he's down here?
I know what parts of this place turn him on.
Yeah?
I don't see any teenage girls around.
[violent whoosh]
[bestial hissing]
[growling]
Did you miss me?
[door opens]
Hey.
What are you doing?
I told you, this is for a case I'm working on.
Right. The one that gives you nightmares and keeps you up all hours?
What is this about? You've been jotting down strange stuff.
-You're not to go through that. -Don't leave it around!
Don't look.
Margaret.
I don't care how many shutters you put up or weapons you hide,
I am not feeling real safe right now.
-By the way, it's astronomy. -What?
According to this professor aiden tanner,
Those symbols have to do with mathematics and mapping the stars.
Should have asked the girl who went to grad school.
I marked the page.
[pained hiss and groan]
[locks door]
-[sharp thud] - hey!
Pinche, freddie!
Don't sneak up on me!
I shouldn't be able to sneak up on someone watching my house.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-I've got to take off. -All right.
Made you a sandwich.
Congratulations, tex magellan.
[baby crying]
I'm coming! I'm coming!
[baby crying]
Hold on! Where are you?
[baby crying]
[crying continues]
No! God!
[indistinct shout]
[crying stops]
[gasping]
[exertion grunts]
[man] right there.
[tony] first the geckos, now this?
You getting paid by the corpse?
How did you find this place?
Anonymous tip.
What have we got?
M.E.'s guess is they died six weeks ago.
Illegals.
It's been dry. They're well preserved.
Every one of them's got symbols in their foreheads.
You were asking about symbols.
Any cause of death yet?
Negative, but they've all got the same wound.
Bite mark to the neck.
Holy crap. How'd you know?
Every vic had their knees smashed.
Kept them from scurrying away, I guess.
Help!
-Buried alive. -What?
They had their knees smashed to keep them from running away.
Some kind of ritual killing.
Some kind of sick-ass shit.
Sir, I think I got something.
Whatever weapon the killer used had this glass in it.
Obsidian.
That's trippy. What do you think?
I think it's time to find an expert.
[tanner] after el más macho ranger gonzalez
Rammed me through, I thought it was curtains.
But then someone or something
Found me down there.
And they gave me the gift.
Immortality.
And one other little fringe benefit
That we won't talk about right now.
Shh!
So this is the famous professor.
Well, thanks for finding him, carlitos.
He's mine now.
[scott] he's ours. Back off or I'll stick him.
No, you won't. He's too valuable. Carlos knows this.
I feel like the prettiest girl at the winter formal.
Shut up. Back away. Tell him, carlos.
Let him go.
What?
He's our ticket with the boss.
You gotta be freaking kidding me.
[tanner sighs]
I must say, I like this new carlitos.
No.
You keep the toy.
[man screaming]
[bestial growl]
[screaming stops]
[speaking spanish]
That's what you get when you troll for underage girls.
You told me to lure him down here, so I did.
I'm glad I met you, katerina.
It's kate. Please call me kate.
I like katerina, and you have no say in this.
I think I could just ignore you.
I am impossible to ignore.
We're gonna get into the beauty parlor
And get the cash from this safe?
Yes, we are.
While frick and frack park it,
You're gonna go in and get your hair "did."
Tell ma barker you need to use the juanito, then pop the lock.
Got it.
So, uh, you...
You run this bodega over here, is that correct?
It's a botánica. There's a difference.
Are you a true believer?
In what?
In that shit you sell there.
Business seems to be good.
It's all snake oil to me.
It's funny, the people buying that shit from you,
I don't really consider them people at all.
What do you think?
I don't ask. I just take their money.
Good.
[indistinct police radio chatter]
[siren squawks]
[throbbing music plays on car stereo]
Can I help you, friend?
Broken tail light. That will cost you around here.
Let me fix that.
-No need to get out, sir. -It's okay.
I have to see it.
That's news to me!
Nothing gets past me.
Really?
Looking for a couple of brothers.
One robbed a bank in acuña.
-Seen him? -No.
I've been looking.
Good.
[gunshot]
[screaming]
¡pendejo!
[man screaming]
[screaming stops]
[liquid trickles]
[distant dog barks]
[dogs barking]
I'm not going to be needing this.
I don't want to know.
What I do want, professor...
Is your expertise.
Holy mother of gandhi.
Nobody has seen these markings for centuries!
I mean, I've theorized about them.
-You know what they mean? -Yes.
No, not at all.
[grunts] shit.
But... It's a mix.
What does it mean?
[disgusted groan]
I get what these mean.
And I get what that means.
And I get this one.
One of these kids is doing his own thing.
It's sticking out like a turtle head.
What does it mean?
If I had a gun to my head,
I'd say it's a map.
We know that, but where does it lead?
The answer
Is in a manuscript.
A codex.
The savini codex.
It was the last surviving document by a spanish friar
During the time of la conquista.
According to the story,
After he wrote his final words,
The friar cried out,
"tantum in enigmate tunc possumus
Videre per umbras daemonum!"
"only in dark times can we see the demons in the shadows."
Then he cut off his own head.
That's impressive.
Jesus.
Psycho bastard.
[gasps]
Give me something.
So, where is this codex?
[sighs] someplace safe.
Let me tell you about this family you've joined.
We have rules.
You earn, you move up.
Yeah, I know all about you.
Then you know those
Who use their gifts for the benefit of the family,
They get rewarded.
Yeah.
Then go, get me this codex.
[sighs]
Got it.
Professor.
The sun is in the sky.
Ahh.
Important safety tip.
This isn't so bad.
Those idiots. All you need's an umbrella.
What to drive, what to drive.
Ah, my chariot awaits.
Oh, shit!
Aah!
What if she doesn't let me back there?
She will, okay?
You've got to relax.
It's a good score, kate.
You did the work.
I didn't exactly make this easy on you, so...
Thank you for putting up with my shit.
[cell phone vibrates]
Okay.
You ready, partner?
[indistinct background chatter]
[hair dryer blowing]
[speaking spanish]
Your spanish is good.
I was thinking maybe braids?
Okay, sit.
First, could I use the restroom?
No, mija, it's broken.
I just need to wash my hands 'cause I ate churros.
Sticky.
Okay.
Thank you. Gracias.
-Parker? -[sonja chuckles]
No better name for a gentleman thief.
Tuscaloosa, alabama? Did you throw darts at a map?
-Seth gecko never robbed any banks in alabama. -That anybody knows of.
Listen.
I, um...
I didn't like how we left things.
Then don't leave.
It's all in the reflexes.
Here we go.
Oh, my god.
[man speaking spanish]
[phone beeping]
Oh, okay.
[phone buzzes]
Uh...
Really?
No, no, no, no, no.
[sonja gasps]
[dispirited sigh]
[chatter]
[gasping]
[man speaking spanish]
Okay.
There we go.
There.
Okay, sleep tight.
Yeah.
That's gotta be the dumbest thing you've ever done, seth.
Total waste.
[subdued squeal]
Thank you.
[woman, in spanish]
So, do you think we should do maybe one--
[speaking spanish]
[chuckling]
[door squeaks]
[thud]
[man, in spanish]
-You know I can hear you. - Sí.
[laughing] we know.
We got a bus to catch. Let's go.
Sorry.
No. Tut-tut-tut-tut-tut. No.
Don't do that. Not a good idea.
Let me tell you something.
And I know you habla ingles,
So don't give me that look, all right?
I am not your enemy. I am not your friend.
I am simply here for what is mine.
I understand that it was yours,
But due to the unwritten rules of this life you chose,
It now belongs to me.
So I'm going to take it.
There's not a thing you or menudo are gonna do about it.
This is who I am.
This is what I do.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Adios.
We made it.
[gunshot]
[kate screams]
[gunshots]
[seth] come on, come on!
[indistinct shout]
[gunshots]
[hammer clicks]
Get down!
Aah!
Long way from kansas city, mr. Gecko.
Fuck yourself.
I want your brother. And the whore!
You're gonna help me find him!
This one, I don't need.
[bestial shriek]
[bestial shriek]
No!
Go!
Get in the car!
No! Rafa!
I know you're there.
Your savior is a madman.
I just want the same thing as sex machine.
Earn my way up.
Then climb.
How?
By doing something memorable.
Something for which I will be eternally grateful.
Kill carlos.
He came out of nowhere.
I had no way of knowing that he was going--
I knew it. I knew this was going to happen.
How could you know?
I'm a professional crook. I've lived long enough to know.
I smelled it all over your little street rat, too.
Rafa was my friend. He tried to help us.
He was one of 'em, and you knew it.
Yes, I did know, and I trusted him.
-He was going to help me. -You want help? Let me help you.
Listen real close. This one's gold.
Everybody that you ever loved is dead.
Including your brother.
-Stop the car. -What are you talking about?
-Stop the car. -What?
Stop the goddamn car!
You want out? Get out.
You want to go play in the darkness?
Be my guest.
I don't need this shit.
-I'm not ready. -Oh, no, sure you are.
You pulled your first big job all by yourself.
In fact, here you go.
Here's your diploma.
Take half, get the hell out.
Thanks.
Shit.
[tires skid]
[brakes squeal]
Just take it.
[carlos] in the labyrinth,
I turned to the ocean.
The sound of the ships.
The echoing wood.
Straining, wanting to break.
We traveled so far...
To find the new world.
You went on your own journey,
Across an ocean of sand...
With your substitute father and your sister.
They didn't know what you were capable of,
What you could become.
And this is how you come to kill me?
Like a coward?
You can't even look me in the eye.
Go.
Go find a new ocean to cross.
Now, it might bend you
And it may break you...
But you will learn what you need to know.
[bestial growls]
Oh, shit!
