Gargoyles (1994–1996): Season 2, Episode 15 - Revelations - full transcript
Matt Bluestone finally confronts a member of the Illuminate who offers him membership if he delivers to them one of the gargoyles his partner is hiding.
[GOLIATH]
ONE THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
SUPERSTITION
AND THE SWORD RULED.
IT WAS A TIME OF DARKNESS.
IT WAS A WORLD OF FEAR.
IT WAS THE AGE OF GARGOYLES.
STONE BY DAY,
WARRIORS BY NIGHT.
[ROAR]
WE WERE BETRAYED
BY THE HUMANS
WE HAD SWORN TO PROTECT,
FROZEN IN STONE
BY A MAGIC SPELL
FOR A THOUSAND YEARS.
NOW, HERE IN MANHATTAN...
THE SPELL IS BROKEN,
AND WE LIVE AGAIN.
[DEEP GROWL]
WE ARE DEFENDERS
OF THE NIGHT.
WE ARE GARGOYLES.
[GOLIATH]
PREVIOUSLY ONGARGOYLES...
YOU SEEM INTROSPECTIVE,
OLD FRIEND.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
JUST DREAMING...
OLD DREAMS.
THIS GAME IS FUTILE.
YOU WERE TOO OLD
TO PLAY IT 1,000 YEARS AGO.
IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO LEAD.
I CANNOT TAKE COMMAND NOW.
IT’S TIME, MY FRIEND.
NONSENSE.
THERE ARE YEARS OF FIGHTING
LEFT FOR YOU.
[SIGHS] NOW THERE’S SOMETHING
TO LOOK FORWARD TO.
[LEXINGTON] BOY, THE CITY SURE
IS DIFFERENT WHEN IT SNOWS.
YEAH. IT’S COLDER.
IT’S ALMOST DAWN,
AND WE’VE COMPLETED OUR PATROL.
LET’S RETURN TO THE CLOCK TOWER
FOR A GOOD DAY’S SLEEP.
NOT A BAD LIFE,
ALL THINGS CONSIDERED.
[ALL SCREAMING]
YEAH. TOO BAD
HE WANTS TO END IT.
MACBETH!
I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU.
I DON’T KNOW HOW YOU ESCAPED
THE WEIR SISTERS, MACBETH...
BUT YOU’RE GONNA
WISH YOU HADN’T.
[GRUNTING]
WHY DO YOU ATTACK US?
TROPHIES.
WE BETTER FINISH THIS FAST.
THE SUN’S ABOUT TO COME UP.
[BEEPS]
[BOTH SCREAMING]
[BOTH GRUNTS]
AAH!
[GROANS]
[GRUNTS]
[MACBETH APPROACHING]
YOU’LL HAVE TO DO
BETTER THAN THAT.
AAH!
[GROANS]
[MACBETH] FAREWELL...
MY ENEMIES.
NO!
[CRASH]
I DON’T BELIEVE IT.
BELIEVE IT, LAD.
MACBETH IS DEAD.
I HAD NO CHOICE.
HE WOULD HAVE KILLED
THE FOUR OF YOU.
NO ONE’S QUESTIONING YOU,
GOLIATH.
WE BEST PREPARE
TO SLEEP RIGHT HERE.
DAWN IS UPON US.
[ROARS]
[ROARS]
[SIREN WAILING]
HUDSON.
WHAT’S WRONG?
WHY DOESN’T HE WAKE UP?
I... I DON’T KNOW.
WAIT.
LAST NIGHT MACBETH THREW SOME
KIND OF POWDER ON HUDSON.
-POWDER?
-SORCERY.
A MAGICAL CONCOCTION
TO KEEP HIM ASLEEP.
AND IT’S UP TO US
TO FIND A CURE.
BUT HOW? MACBETH’S DEAD.
WHO ELSE WOULD KNOW
ABOUT THE POWDER?
LEXINGTON AND I WILL GO
TO MACBETH’S MANSION
AND SEE WHAT WE CAN FIND.
BROOKLYN, BROADWAY,
STAY HERE AND PROTECT HUDSON.
GOLIATH, WHAT IF
THERE IS NO CURE?
THERE IS A CURE. THERE MUST BE.
[BEEPING]
NOW, LET’S SEE WHAT
WE CAN FIND.
[BROADWAY] I’M WORRIED.
EVEN IF GOLIATH FINDS
SOMETHING AT MACBETH’S PLACE,
HOW’RE WE GONNA MAKE IT WORK?
NONE OF US ARE SORCERERS.
LET’S JUST FOCUS ON
PROTECTING HUDSON.
WE CAN’T LET ANYTHING
HAPPEN TO HIM.
YOU CAN’T KEEP ME
IN HERE FOREVER.
AAH!
I’LL GET OUT!
DO YOU HEAR ME?
I’LL GET OUT!
[DOOR OPENS]
ABOUT TIME YOU CAME BACK.
WHY DID YOU KIDNAP ME?
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
NOTHING MUCH, HUDSON.
JUST YOUR SKIN.
YOU’LL HAVE THE DEVIL’S
OWN TASK GETTING IT.
REALLY?
GEE, THAT WASN’T AS HARD
AS YOU MADE IT SOUND.
SO YOU THROUGH WITH ME?
NOT QUITE. I NEED YOUR HELP
TO CONDUCT A SMALL EXPERIMENT.
EXPERIMENT?
WHAT KIND OF EXPERIMENT?
WHAT’LL THAT BE THEN?
THE CAULDRON OF LIFE.
THE LEGEND SAYS
WHOEVER BATHES IN IT
WILL LIVE AS LONG
AS THE MOUNTAIN STONES.
AH...
YOU WISH TO BE...
IMMORTAL.
OF COURSE. WHAT GOOD ARE ALL
THE RICHES ON EARTH
IF FOX AND I CAN’T
ENJOY THEM FOREVER?
AND HOW DO I FIT
IN TO ALL THIS?
ONE OF THE KEY INGREDIENTS
IN THE CAULDRON’S BREW
IS THE STONE SKIN
OF A GARGOYLE.
THESE ANCIENT TALISMANS
ARE OFTEN DANGEROUS, XANATOS.
I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT
YOUR EXPERIENCE
WITH THE EYE OF ODIN
WOULD HAVE TAUGHT YOU THAT.
YOU COULD BE RIGHT.
MAYBE IT WOULD BE A GOOD
IDEA TO TEST THE BREW FIRST.
ANY VOLUNTEERS?
YOU MEAN TO DUNK ME
IN THAT OVERSIZED CHAMBER POT?
EVENTUALLY. THE LEGEND SAYS
THE SKIN MUST BOIL
FOR A NIGHT AND A DAY,
SO BE PATIENT.
IF THE PROCEDURE IS SUCCESSFUL,
I’LL RELEASE YOU.
AND IF IT ISN’T?
THEN YOU’LL HAVE THE PRIVILEGE
OF GIVING YOUR LIFE
FOR SCIENCE.
MY CLAN WILL NEVER REST
UNTIL THEY KNOW WHERE I AM.
BUT THEY ALREADY KNOW
WHERE YOU ARE.
[GASPS]
THIS IS JUST
A SCULPTOR’S MODEL, OF COURSE.
THE REAL THING IS LIFE-SIZE
AND VERY LIFELIKE.
THE HARDEST PART WAS FINDING
A REPLICA FOR YOUR SWORD.
STILL THERE’S NO SENSE
BEING COMPLACENT.
LET’S MAKE SURE
THE OTHER GARGOYLES
DON’T THINK TO LOOK
FOR HIM HERE.
WHAT’S IN THIS FOR YOU?
SERVICE IS ITS OWN REWARD.
I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT
YOU KNEW THAT.
[XANATOS] OWEN, I WANT
THE GARGOYLES DISTRACTED.
UNDERSTOOD, SIR.
[DISTANT WHOOSHING]
WHOA!
[BRONX] IT CAN’T BE.
THERE’S NO WAY HE COULD HAVE
SURVIVED THAT CRASH!
AAH.
WE’VE GOTTA
MAKE HIM FOLLOW US.
LEAD HIM AWAY FROM HUDSON.
I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU.
ANY LUCK FINDING THE CURE
AT MACBETH’S HOUSE?
NO. WE SEARCHED FROM ATTIC
TO CELLAR, BUT FOUND NOTHING.
THERE’S ONLY ONE OTHER HOPE.
WE NEED A SORCERESS.
WE NEED DEMONA.
YOU ARE A DETECTIVE.
YOU MUST HELP US FIND HER.
GOLIATH, YOU KNOW
I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO HELP...
BUT, HONESTLY, I WOULDN’T EVEN
KNOW WHERE TO START LOOKING.
WE CAN’T JUST GIVE UP.
WE WON’T.
I PROMISE.
IT’S NOT LONG TILL SUNRISE.
WE SHOULD HEAD BACK.
I’D LIKE TO GO WITH YOU.
THE SOUP’S COOKING NICELY.
YOU’VE OBVIOUSLY GONE
TO A LOT OF TROUBLE
AND CARVED YOUR STATUE
WEEKS IN ADVANCE.
TELL ME SOMETHING. WHY ME?
BECAUSE YOU’RE OLD
AND GETTING OLDER.
I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT EVEN
APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY.
GROWING OLD TERRIFIES YOU,
DOESN’T IT?
NOTHING TERRIFIES ME,
BECAUSE NOTHING IS BEYOND
MY ABILITY TO CHANGE.
WHAT ABOUT YOU,
STILL WASTING YOUR EVENINGS
IN FRONT OF A TELEVISION SET?
YOU’RE OF LITTLE USE
TO YOUR CLAN,
YOU MIGHT AS WELL BE
OF SOME USE TO ME.
OPEN THIS CAGE,
AND I’LL SHOW YOU
JUST HOW USELESS I AM.
[GROWLING]
FAREWELL, MY ENEMIES.
AT LEAST WE LED HIM AWAY
FROM HUDSON.
YEAH. NOW IF ONLY SOMEBODY
WOULD LEAD HIM AWAY FROM US.
IT’S ALMOST DAWN.
WE’LL BE SITTING DUCKS.
BESIDES, WE’VE GOT TO NAIL HIM.
HE’S THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAN CURE HUDSON.
YOU’LL HAVE TO DO
BETTER THAN THAT.
[GRUNTING]
OHH!
OH...
[GOLIATH]
OVER THERE. IT’S BROADWAY.
THE SUN’S ABOUT TO COME UP.
[GOLIATH]
MACBETH... AND ALIVE.
-GOLIATH! YOU CAN’T! THE SUN!
-[LEXINGTON] THE SUN!
[GROWLING]
[GASPS]
[GROWLING]
[GROWLING]
[GASPS]
[GASPS]
TROPHY. HA HA!
[OWEN] WE HAVE A FIELD REPORT
FROM MACBETH.
HE KEPT THE GARGOYLES BUSY
THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.
BETTER WATCH OUT, OWEN.
THIS MACBETH FELLOW MAY BE
GUNNING FOR YOUR JOB.
HE’S ALREADY DIED FOR ME ONCE
ON THIS PROJECT.
IT’S HARD TO TOP THAT.
[GROWLING]
JALAPEÑA! YOU’RE STILL ALIVE!
IT’S A MIRACLE!
YES. A MIRACLE NAMED ELISA.
[LEXINGTON]
WHAT I DON’T GET IS MACBETH.
WHY DID HE CUT AND RUN?
[BROOKLYN]
YEAH. GOOD QUESTION.
HE KEEPS SAYING
HE WANTS US AS TROPHIES.
BUT WHY DIDN’T HE COME BACK
FOR US WHILE WE WERE STONE?
HUDSON!
YOUR BATH IS READY, HUDSON.
[HUDSON] LISTEN TO ME, XANATOS.
WHAT YOU SEEK DEMANDS
A HEAVY PRICE.
I’VE BEEN ALIVE
FOR OVER 1100 YEARS.
MOST OF MY CLAN
IS DEAD AND DUST,
AND I AM A STRANGER
IN A STRANGE LAND.
DEMONA AND MACBETH
ARE IMMORTAL.
HAS IT BROUGHT THEM HAPPINESS?
SAVE YOUR BREATH, HUDSON.
DEATH AND OLD AGE
HAVE THEIR PRICE AS WELL,
AND IT’S TOO EXPENSIVE FOR ME.
NO SIGN OF MACBETH.
I STILL WANNA KNOW HOW HE
LIVED THROUGH THAT CRASH.
AND WHY HE KEEPS ATTACKING US.
IT’S ALMOST AS THOUGH HE’S
TRYING TO KEEP US OFF-GUARD...
WHILE SOMETHING ELSE
IS GOING ON.
[ALL GRUNT]
KEEP HIM AWAY FROM HUDSON.
FAREWELL, MY ENEMIES.
OK, THIS IS GETTING OLD.
DON’T DO IT!
[GASPS]
HUDSON!
[GROWLING]
MURDERER!
-YOU’LL... HAVE... TO... DO...
-[CLANG]
BET... TER...
THAN...
THA...
RELAX, HUDSON.
WITHOUT YOUR SWORD,
YOU’RE HELPLESS.
[HUDSON] SWORDLESS, MAYBE.
HELPLESS, NEVER!
BEHAVE YOURSELF, BOY.
I UNDERESTIMATED YOU.
YOU’RE VERY RESOURCEFUL.
USING YOUR OWN SKIN
AS A WEAPON.
I SUPPOSE YOU’LL DESTROY
THE CAULDRON NOW.
AND WHY WOULD I BE DOING THAT?
WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO DO WITH
YOUR LIFE IS YOUR OWN AFFAIR.
AS LONG AS IT’S GOT
NOTHING TO DO WITH ME.
YOU’RE JUST FULL OF SURPRISES.
A FRIENDLY WORD OF ADVICE.
TRUE IMMORTALITY ISN’T
ABOUT LIVING FOREVER, MAN.
IT’S ABOUT WHAT YOU DO
WITH THE TIME YOU HAVE.
WHEN ALL YOUR SCHEMING’S DONE,
WHAT WILL BE
YOUR LEGACY, XANATOS?
[DIALING]
NO. LET HIM GO.
HE’S EARNED IT.
[GOLIATH]
HUDSON WAS THE GREATEST WARRIOR
I HAVE EVER KNOWN.
HIS LOSS DIMINISHES US ALL.
YEAH, NOW I WISH I’D...
HE WAS ONE IN A MILLION.
HE’S FORGOTTEN MORE THINGS THAN
WE’LL EVER KNOW.
HE WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR US.
[BROADWAY]
I’M SORRY, HUDSON.
I WISH IT HADN’T
TURNED OUT THIS WAY.
[HUDSON]
ALL THINGS CONSIDERED,
I’M JUST AS GLAD IT DID.
-[GOLIATH] HUDSON! HUDSON!
-[LEXINGTON] YOU’RE NOT DEAD!
IT’S A LONG STORY,
AND ONE BEST TOLD OVER
A HOT CUP OF TEA.
I THINK I’LL KEEP THIS
AS A SOUVENIR.
NOT EVERYONE CAN RECLAIM
THEIR HEAD AFTER LOSING IT.
LET’S GO HOME.
I WAS SO CLOSE TO FINDING OUT
IF THE LEGEND WAS TRUE.
NOW THERE’S NO ONE
TO TEST IT ON.
ALLOW ME, SIR.
[CLANG]
IT WOULD APPEAR THAT
THE CAULDRON’S SPELL OF
IMMORTALITY HAS A PRICE.
YES. WHAT WAS THE LEGEND?
WHOEVER BATHES IN IT
WILL LIVE AS LONG
AS THE MOUNTAIN STONES.
HOW LITERAL-MINDED.
THANK YOU, OWEN.
THAT WILL BE ALL.
