Legacies (2018–…): Season 3, Episode 2 - Goodbyes Sure Do Suck - full transcript
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hold up.
- You're out of control, bro.
- What?
We know you're descended
from King Arthur's bloodline.
Everything I'm saying
could have happened.
Yeah. Could have.
- What is Hope doing there, exactly?
- I... I got carried away.
Look, I don't understand
how you're not into this.
If I knew I was descended
from kings...
That's always been
the difference
between you and me, Lan.
You've always wanted
to be special.
I've just wanted to be normal.
Have a... a home,
friends and a family.
And look, now that we have that,
I don't need some
fantasy role-playing
to tell me where I come from.
This is history.
And after all
we've been through,
- Look, I'm done looking back.
- Okay, fine, can you just give me
my book back, please?
- This book?
- Yes, that book.
Just give me the book.
- Wait, wait, no.
- Stop, stop.
Raf, let go now.
I can't hear you.
- I-I can't hear you.
- Raf, stop.
What?
Huh?

Season 03 Episode 02
Episode Title: "Goodbyes Sure Do Suck"
Aired on: January 28, 2021
Found him by the back gate
this morning.
I just, I don't get it.
I thought you said Chad was
walking and talking yesterday.
Why does he look like
he's been dead for three months?
Because he has been.
The Necromancer was
keeping him alive
until I did the
deal with him.
Why would Dollar Store
Jack Sparrow set him free
one day just to turn around
and kill him the next?
I don't know.
Dr. Saltzman.
Ow.
Who's doing the magic analysis?
I think Ms. Featherwood.
We can do it ourselves.
It shouldn't be too hard
to figure out.
Let's go
take a look.
What
are you doing?
Getting the hell out of here.
You don't want to wait
for the results?
Is waiting around gonna
change anything, Lan?
Look, I...
I just can't sit here.
Okay. Whatever you need,
I'm there.
We had a deal!
Oh, I'm well aware
and coursing with black magic
as a result.
So you'd do well
to watch your tone.
Oh, see, that's more like it.
But you really didn't
have to get me anything.
Oh...
I'll be damned.
- Is this...?
- Your former acolyte.
Chad.
I knew him well, Horatio.
Oh, stop playing games.
This was all your doing.
Hardly.
We sealed our pact
with a covenant spell.
I obviously upheld my end
of the bargain,
hence the magic
I now possess.
I severed my connection to them,
just like you asked,
no strings attached.
What is so damn funny?
I followed your word
to the letter,
but as I was the one who
brought them back to life...
It was dooming them
all over again.
Precisely!
Yeah!
Oh!
So they are gonna die?
The wolf, most definitely.
By sunrise,
I'd imagine.
But the phoenix...
Ah, it's doubtful.
I'm not sure he was
ever technically dead,
to be honest, given his
powers of resurrection.
And what about Alyssa?
Chin up.
One out of three ain't bad.
Mm. Fine.
Be that way.
I wish I had better news.
We don't have much time.
Super Squad always
saves the day.
What do you
need us to do?
Anything we can.
We should also
make a plan
for if...
things don't go our way.
What?
We got to be realistic
about our odds here.
Right? You leave the
worst-case scenario
up to me.
In the meantime,
just keep looking for loopholes.
Jed, the pack should be
with him right now.
Pack can't help
with this, Dr. S.
Why not?
A dying wolf separates himself
from the pack.
We have to respect
his privacy,
keep our distance unless
he chooses to reach out to us.
Is that how you'd
want to be treated?
Sorry.
It's just our nature.
Lizzie,
the witches...
Have them keep trying any
and all healing spells.
Already on it.
Plus, we gave Raf an elixir
that links him
to the lunar cycle.
It's a Band-Aid, but it will
hold off his symptoms
until the morning.
When he drops dead.
I said that out loud.
I am so...
My point is, if anyone can
find a way to save him,
it's us.
There's only one
problem with that.
Rafael took off.
He's gone.
This is your big dope plan?
Camping?
Yeah.
A whole lot of fishing,
grilling and chilling.
Like we did just
when we were ordinary kids.
Come on, dude.
Yeah, sounds
like the perfect day.
Oh, yeah, it's gonna be.
Hey, I hope you
don't mind me bringing
my dad along for the fun.
The more,
the merrier.
Walt has no idea
that we're even coming.
I'm-a go surprise him.
I'll get our stuff.
Okay.
Yo, Pops.
Hello?
What's wrong?
He's not in there.
- Oh. Okay.
- Uh...
- You want to just wait or...?
- It's fine.
- We can just go. Go?
- Go where?
It's-it's not a big deal.
I'm scared.
Son of a bitch.
Pal, your day just got
a lot more interest...
Before you take me downtown,
I still get my one phone call,
right?
Oh, so you do know how
phones work. Interesting.
I've been meaning to call.
But you never did.
'Cause I had to
take a trip with my daughters
to see their uncle.
It's a long story,
but the point is,
I am sorry.
And I've even more
sorry to say
that I'm here because
I need your help.
Oh, another one
of your novels?
I'm looking for
a missing person.
Somebody who's gone
to great lengths
- not to be found.
- I'm sorry, Ric.
But I have a job.
And I can't be
running around
helping you whenever you want.
Yeah, but you will.
'Cause when I had Kaleb
compel you to forget,
I had him tell you
to listen to me
in cases of life and death.
Okay.
Who are we looking for?
I made you
an offer!
And I'm considering it.
If my skill set can affect
real change around here.
Starting with this.
Is the reconstituted
Malivore Pit.
It's a portal
to another dimension,
forged by my own black hand.
It's an eyesore.
But I guess we could
throw a rug over it.
We will do no such thing.
You clearly
do not understand the
power dynamic at play here.
Oh, sure I do.
The way I see it,
this is a job interview.
So this is as much about me
interviewing you
as it is about you
interviewing me.
Now,
how are you gonna
raise Malivore?
What's your, like, plan?
Your mind would shatter
at its sheer scope.
Then get to shattering.
'Cause I'm not
signing up until I know exactly
what our mission statement is.
Mission statement?
And, more importantly,
how much pain and misery
it's gonna rain down
on the Salvatore School.
So, go ahead.
Pitch me.
So, about
those healing spells.
None of them worked?
Not as intended.
Well,
the day is not over yet.
Hope, we've tried
everything.
You know what
we need to do.
We're not doing a
linking spell. Why not?
It's the exact thing
that you did
- to save me from the Merge.
- But that was different.
If I link Landon to Raf, Landon
would have to die and resurrect
every single day.
We don't know how many lives
Landon has left.
We could kill them both.
Well, have you thought
about what Landon would want?
I might have another idea.
God, I hate waiting around
like this.
Every second counts.
Well, I'm sure
he'll be back soon.
And what if he's not?
I may never get
to say goodbye, Lan.
Don't say that.
One day is all I wanted.
I just wanted one day
to be normal again.
Look, we're gonna beat
this. Come on, man.
Does that sound like my life?
Nothing ever goes my way, Lan.
What makes you think that
today's gonna be any different?
Hey, camping trip's over.
Y'all got to get y'all asses
back to school.
Hope has a plan.
Come on.
So Hope wants to use Clarke's
Freaky Friday tuning fork
to put Raf's consciousness
in someone else's body?
Look, I know
it's not ideal, okay?
But if we modify
and reforge the Trident,
then a siphon like me
can use it
to transfer energy
instead of consciousness.
Well-well,
wait, wait.
What kind of energy?
And into who?
Well, my first choice was Jed,
but unfortunately,
it has to be...
phoenix energy.
Phoenix?
So what does that mean
for Landon?
I'm guessing
it means I become human.
Mortal?
Which is probably why Hope isn't
here to tell me herself.
Thank you.
That's it?
Were you expecting more?
Kind of.
Your puny mind could not
possibly process
the profundity of my plot!
One: Acquire buttload
of dark magic.
Two: Use aforementioned buttload
to reenact the original
Triad spell
and raise Malivore
from the Pit. Three:
Rewrite the spell
so that Malivore serves you
instead of the Triad.
Four: Malivore is your servant
forever.
Yes. That's pretty much it.
Well, I didn't say
plan.
It's just a little small.
What?
I get why you're pissed
at Malivore, but
don't you think you should do
more with all that black magic
than bring him back
to shine your shoes?
He started it.
It's petty.
You're better than this. - Ah...
We're better than this.
This spell's a sequel, right?
That means it has to be bigger
and badder than the one before.
I must admit, I like
the sound of that.
What do you have in mind?
We bring back Malivore,
just like you said.
But we don't stop there.
We bring back...
the monsters.
♪ I'm Mr. Nice Guy ♪
♪ I could be lying ♪
♪ To you all night ♪
♪ I'll pull you closer
with my fake smile... ♪
Anyone else care
to try their luck?
I'm game.
♪ I'm Mr. Good Time ♪
Fools and their money.
Oh, I already know I can't win.
Because I
know that you're a werewolf.
Who sent you?
I'm here about your son.
I don't have a son.
♪ Let me hear you. ♪
What is that thing?
Oh, no name.
But the "Fork of Saving
Your Ass" has a nice ring to it.
You built this today?
Yeah. Damn, girl.
You want to thank me?
Be sure to tell my dad
how awesome I am.
Sometimes I think
he wonders.
He'll figure it out.
Your dad's a good guy.
You're lucky,
you know?
To have a dad
like him.
Who makes mistakes because
he's trying to protect you.
Well, at least
you have the moppet.
Yeah.
But I hate that it has
to come to this for him.
Are you sure about this?
Uh, I mean, it's
kind of ironic, huh?
Raf spent all day
yesterday convincing me
to go back inside my body,
and today he needs me
to give the most important piece
of it away.
It's not the most
important piece.
You sure about that?
It doesn't...
it doesn't matter.
I'd lay in front
of a bus for him.
At least this plan seems
a lot less painful.
We're ready.
Um...
Let's get started.
Moppet, you are here.
Raf, there.
And, Hope, you're moral support,
so don't screw it up.
Thanks.
You can start now.
Start, but
nothing's happening.
What do you mean?
There isn't any magic
in the moppet to siphon.
I don't
understand.
She means
I'm not a phoenix anymore.
It makes sense. The golden
arrow felled the phoenix,
just like the prophecy said.
Wait. But you were brought back.
As a human, but the
phoenix part of me died,
leaving me one final,
mortal life.
I should have known.
I can feel it. I feel...
different.
I can't believe
that this is happening.
We'll run more tests.
Maybe there's something
- we missed.
- I can go outside
and try to fly. How?
By jumping off a roof
and hoping you sprout wings
before you break your neck?
No!
I don't want to waste another
second fighting a losing battle.
I want to make
the most of whatever
little time that I have left.
Just want to be with...
with my friends.
I want to go out
on my own terms.
What are you gonna do with me?
Take you to your son.
Rafael. He needs you.
He's dying.
He's a werewolf,
like you.
It's a...
a complicated story, but he only
has one day left to live.
He's a good kid.
He's a really good kid.
And he shouldn't have
to face his fate alone.
He deserves to have people
by his side who love him.
He...
have his mother. Why?
He never did.
I left him because
I couldn't be that for him.
He's better off without me.
Mac, what are you doing?
She can go.
If it's what you want.
She'll come back.
Trust me.
Hey.
Could use
those Tribrid muscles.
Got a couple more kegs
I need to haul over.
But I can see that
you're not in the mood
for a, um... for a party.
I think I'm just
a sore loser.
I've beaten death more
times than I care to count,
and I really thought we
were gonna beat it again.
Hey, uh... it's okay, Hope.
I'm serious.
I'm not afraid.
I believe that everyone gets
their own version of heaven.
For me, it's gonna be
my best day ever,
just on a loop.
A day outside
with the people I love.
But...
I'm gonna appreciate
everything I can while I'm here.
I mean, a supernova that we can
actually see with our naked eye?
I mean, that's once
in a lifetime.
A lifetime.
Hey, um, there's something
that I need you to do.
It's, uh, one last favor,
it's, uh, for Landon. Sorry.
I can't right now.
Yo!
What's with the long faces?
Come on, I wanted
this to be a-a party,
like the one the first night
when I came here.
Not a funeral.
We're trying our best,
Raf, but it's...
it's a lot.
Look, just-just think
of something, uh, funny.
Or something stupid
or embarrassing that I did
that you'll always remember.
Like the, um...
Wh... Uh, what was it?
Uh...
"Expectation was a cancer."
"Oh, you can't, sir?
Then who will?"
Come on.
That awful beat poetry thing
I did?
Then there was that one time
you turned with your uniform on.
It was pretty wild,
seeing a full-blown werewolf
with a tie around its neck.
That's the spirit.
Keep it going.
Okay, well, I don't
know if this is too funny,
but there was that time...
Lan.
Man, come on. Bring your
ass outside.
What? I know you got
dirt on me for days.
I'm sorry.
I just can't pretend.
Okay, all r... all right. Uh...
Then let's bounce.
Just me and you.
Look, I got what
I needed from here.
I want to spend the rest
of whatever time I have left
with my brother.
All right.
I'm scared, Dad.
Raf's not gonna make it
and there's nothing we can do.
So we need you back here ASAP.
I need you back.
I'm on my way.
- We have to go.
- Ric.
Don't give up on her yet.
Werewolves are instinctual.
You didn't even know
about them before today
and you won't tomorrow,
so what makes you think
she's any different?
She's a mother, like me.
So I am counting
on her instincts,
because we all make mistakes
with our kids.

Dad?
W-We came looking for you.
I heard.
But I'm here now.
And I'm not
going anywhere.
What can I do, son?
Exactly what you're doing
now.
Lizzie.
Did you see the supernova?
Kind of hard to miss it.
Is that what I think it is?
I had an idea.
Please tell me you
know where your dad
keeps his stash
of Bennett blood.
Off the record,
I can think of at least three
super-secret hiding spots.
Let's go.
We're running out of time.
He's gone.
I mean, Rafael's
literally gone.
I didn't know werewolves
disappear when they die.
They don't.
Come with me.
I have some explaining to do.
Come on.
Last night Rafael told me
what his version of heaven
looked like.
And it gave me an idea.
How you feeling, son?
Um, better than I ever have.
Is, um, is this heaven?
Depends on your
definition.
Your friends found
another way.
And your headmaster
found someone else.
You're so tall.
Just like your grandfather.
Rafael,
this is...
Mom.
If you want to call me that,
but I don't think I deserve...
I-Is any of this real?
Your friends can explain
a lot better than we can.
They're waiting for you.
One last time.
Even though
we couldn't heal him,
we could still save him,
so Lizzie and I used the coven
ascendant and supernova
to give Raf peace
as he defined it.
Hey.
Um, what's-what's going on?
What's up?
What's up?
I-I know you got a lot of
questions that need answers.
I just want you to know
that I never doubted
that you were gonna survive this
for a second.
I knew the whole...
I really...
Okay, I-I doubted it hard.
But, uh, you
know who didn't?
My man.
We're gonna miss you, man.
Because a prison world
is only a prison
if you're alone.
We can't stay,
but he can.
With everything he needs
to keep him safe and happy.
With his family.
Goodbyes really do suck.
Always and forever.
Maybe that's what heaven is.
Can't believe she pulled it off.
Like I said,
she finds ways.
Yeah.
Hope was right
about another thing, too.
Goodbyes sure do suck.
Yeah.
It's more like "see you later."
This is a prison world.
I can visit.
Yeah.
I promise I will.
Yeah.
Our world won't be the same
without you, man.
Look, the only promise
that I need...
is that you'll live
your last life
like we always talked about.
All in.
'Cause that's what I'm gonna do
with them.
My family.
Just sucks that I got
to leave this one behind.
You deserve it.
You've always been all in.
For me.
For everybody.
And I love you, brother.
I love you, too, man.
Wait, wait, wait.
I almost forgot.
Until we meet again,
my once and future king.

Hey, um, are you guys
sure you still want to do this with me?
I was already
living my life like a hermit.
So this suits me just fine.
If every day is the same here,
that means there'll never
be a full moon.
Sounds like an
upgrade to me.
And besides,
other people and I haven't
gotten on so well
lately, so your father
and I are...
♪ Of the falling snow... ♪
All in.
Guess it runs in the family.
Hey. Did you guys know
we're royalty?
When did you get back?
Like, an hour
or two ago.
I mean, I figured you'd want
to say goodbye to Raf alone.
You really came through for him.
I promised you I would.
Even if it wasn't
how I figured, but...
You know, the supernova's
still going on.
Lizzie can send you back.
You're not seriously
suggesting
I go back to the prison world.
Maybe.
Maybe for a little while,
maybe until
all of this Necromancer nonsense
blows over.
You'd be with Raf,
you'd be safe.
You wouldn't be there.
I don't see the point.
The point is,
is that I'm scared.
Even though we saved Raf,
it still feels like we lost him,
and you of all people know
what that does to me.
Especially now
that you're human.
You mean weak?
Somebody you're
gonna have to spend the rest
of your life worrying about
and, and-and-and protecting?
- Landon...
- Now that I'm
- not special.
- Don't put that on me.
I've never needed you
to be special.
I've always loved you
for you.
I love you now.
Why are you picking a fight
about this?
Because not once
today did you say
that it would be okay.
Me giving up everything
that made me fit in
at this school,
everything that makes me fit
with you.
We only work
when I'm unbreakable, and today,
when you were telling me
that I go back
to being just me,
you didn't say
that it'd be okay,
that we would be okay.
And I know why you
didn't say it.
'Cause you don't believe it.
Admit that.
I promised Raf that I'd live
my life the best I can.
And what you want
isn't living, Hope.
Not to me.
So, in conclusion,
Malivore is raised,
beholden to me.
All the monsters incarcerated in
his accursed pit are liberated.
And I, the Almighty Necromancer,
shall hold dominion over them
and this entire plane.
shall hold dominion.
Partners.
That's what we said.
It really is none
of your concern.
And not the reason I reunited
your soul with your furry flesh.
Then why am I returned?
Because you're
an all-seeing oracle.
So shouldn't you know?
I surely could.
But I quite like
the way he talks.
Then listen well,
you fantastic man-lion,
and answer me this:
Will our plan fail or succeed?
It shall come to pass
as you have described.
Ah! Yeah!
And what about
the Salvatore students?
Will they suffer?
Very much.
And one...
will die.
Told you it'd work.
You were right...
partner.

Hold up.
- You're out of control, bro.
- What?
We know you're descended
from King Arthur's bloodline.
Everything I'm saying
could have happened.
Yeah. Could have.
- What is Hope doing there, exactly?
- I... I got carried away.
Look, I don't understand
how you're not into this.
If I knew I was descended
from kings...
That's always been
the difference
between you and me, Lan.
You've always wanted
to be special.
I've just wanted to be normal.
Have a... a home,
friends and a family.
And look, now that we have that,
I don't need some
fantasy role-playing
to tell me where I come from.
This is history.
And after all
we've been through,
- Look, I'm done looking back.
- Okay, fine, can you just give me
my book back, please?
- This book?
- Yes, that book.
Just give me the book.
- Wait, wait, no.
- Stop, stop.
Raf, let go now.
I can't hear you.
- I-I can't hear you.
- Raf, stop.
What?
Huh?

Season 03 Episode 02
Episode Title: "Goodbyes Sure Do Suck"
Aired on: January 28, 2021
Found him by the back gate
this morning.
I just, I don't get it.
I thought you said Chad was
walking and talking yesterday.
Why does he look like
he's been dead for three months?
Because he has been.
The Necromancer was
keeping him alive
until I did the
deal with him.
Why would Dollar Store
Jack Sparrow set him free
one day just to turn around
and kill him the next?
I don't know.
Dr. Saltzman.
Ow.
Who's doing the magic analysis?
I think Ms. Featherwood.
We can do it ourselves.
It shouldn't be too hard
to figure out.
Let's go
take a look.
What
are you doing?
Getting the hell out of here.
You don't want to wait
for the results?
Is waiting around gonna
change anything, Lan?
Look, I...
I just can't sit here.
Okay. Whatever you need,
I'm there.
We had a deal!
Oh, I'm well aware
and coursing with black magic
as a result.
So you'd do well
to watch your tone.
Oh, see, that's more like it.
But you really didn't
have to get me anything.
Oh...
I'll be damned.
- Is this...?
- Your former acolyte.
Chad.
I knew him well, Horatio.
Oh, stop playing games.
This was all your doing.
Hardly.
We sealed our pact
with a covenant spell.
I obviously upheld my end
of the bargain,
hence the magic
I now possess.
I severed my connection to them,
just like you asked,
no strings attached.
What is so damn funny?
I followed your word
to the letter,
but as I was the one who
brought them back to life...
It was dooming them
all over again.
Precisely!
Yeah!
Oh!
So they are gonna die?
The wolf, most definitely.
By sunrise,
I'd imagine.
But the phoenix...
Ah, it's doubtful.
I'm not sure he was
ever technically dead,
to be honest, given his
powers of resurrection.
And what about Alyssa?
Chin up.
One out of three ain't bad.
Mm. Fine.
Be that way.
I wish I had better news.
We don't have much time.
Super Squad always
saves the day.
What do you
need us to do?
Anything we can.
We should also
make a plan
for if...
things don't go our way.
What?
We got to be realistic
about our odds here.
Right? You leave the
worst-case scenario
up to me.
In the meantime,
just keep looking for loopholes.
Jed, the pack should be
with him right now.
Pack can't help
with this, Dr. S.
Why not?
A dying wolf separates himself
from the pack.
We have to respect
his privacy,
keep our distance unless
he chooses to reach out to us.
Is that how you'd
want to be treated?
Sorry.
It's just our nature.
Lizzie,
the witches...
Have them keep trying any
and all healing spells.
Already on it.
Plus, we gave Raf an elixir
that links him
to the lunar cycle.
It's a Band-Aid, but it will
hold off his symptoms
until the morning.
When he drops dead.
I said that out loud.
I am so...
My point is, if anyone can
find a way to save him,
it's us.
There's only one
problem with that.
Rafael took off.
He's gone.
This is your big dope plan?
Camping?
Yeah.
A whole lot of fishing,
grilling and chilling.
Like we did just
when we were ordinary kids.
Come on, dude.
Yeah, sounds
like the perfect day.
Oh, yeah, it's gonna be.
Hey, I hope you
don't mind me bringing
my dad along for the fun.
The more,
the merrier.
Walt has no idea
that we're even coming.
I'm-a go surprise him.
I'll get our stuff.
Okay.
Yo, Pops.
Hello?
What's wrong?
He's not in there.
- Oh. Okay.
- Uh...
- You want to just wait or...?
- It's fine.
- We can just go. Go?
- Go where?
It's-it's not a big deal.
I'm scared.
Son of a bitch.
Pal, your day just got
a lot more interest...
Before you take me downtown,
I still get my one phone call,
right?
Oh, so you do know how
phones work. Interesting.
I've been meaning to call.
But you never did.
'Cause I had to
take a trip with my daughters
to see their uncle.
It's a long story,
but the point is,
I am sorry.
And I've even more
sorry to say
that I'm here because
I need your help.
Oh, another one
of your novels?
I'm looking for
a missing person.
Somebody who's gone
to great lengths
- not to be found.
- I'm sorry, Ric.
But I have a job.
And I can't be
running around
helping you whenever you want.
Yeah, but you will.
'Cause when I had Kaleb
compel you to forget,
I had him tell you
to listen to me
in cases of life and death.
Okay.
Who are we looking for?
I made you
an offer!
And I'm considering it.
If my skill set can affect
real change around here.
Starting with this.
Is the reconstituted
Malivore Pit.
It's a portal
to another dimension,
forged by my own black hand.
It's an eyesore.
But I guess we could
throw a rug over it.
We will do no such thing.
You clearly
do not understand the
power dynamic at play here.
Oh, sure I do.
The way I see it,
this is a job interview.
So this is as much about me
interviewing you
as it is about you
interviewing me.
Now,
how are you gonna
raise Malivore?
What's your, like, plan?
Your mind would shatter
at its sheer scope.
Then get to shattering.
'Cause I'm not
signing up until I know exactly
what our mission statement is.
Mission statement?
And, more importantly,
how much pain and misery
it's gonna rain down
on the Salvatore School.
So, go ahead.
Pitch me.
So, about
those healing spells.
None of them worked?
Not as intended.
Well,
the day is not over yet.
Hope, we've tried
everything.
You know what
we need to do.
We're not doing a
linking spell. Why not?
It's the exact thing
that you did
- to save me from the Merge.
- But that was different.
If I link Landon to Raf, Landon
would have to die and resurrect
every single day.
We don't know how many lives
Landon has left.
We could kill them both.
Well, have you thought
about what Landon would want?
I might have another idea.
God, I hate waiting around
like this.
Every second counts.
Well, I'm sure
he'll be back soon.
And what if he's not?
I may never get
to say goodbye, Lan.
Don't say that.
One day is all I wanted.
I just wanted one day
to be normal again.
Look, we're gonna beat
this. Come on, man.
Does that sound like my life?
Nothing ever goes my way, Lan.
What makes you think that
today's gonna be any different?
Hey, camping trip's over.
Y'all got to get y'all asses
back to school.
Hope has a plan.
Come on.
So Hope wants to use Clarke's
Freaky Friday tuning fork
to put Raf's consciousness
in someone else's body?
Look, I know
it's not ideal, okay?
But if we modify
and reforge the Trident,
then a siphon like me
can use it
to transfer energy
instead of consciousness.
Well-well,
wait, wait.
What kind of energy?
And into who?
Well, my first choice was Jed,
but unfortunately,
it has to be...
phoenix energy.
Phoenix?
So what does that mean
for Landon?
I'm guessing
it means I become human.
Mortal?
Which is probably why Hope isn't
here to tell me herself.
Thank you.
That's it?
Were you expecting more?
Kind of.
Your puny mind could not
possibly process
the profundity of my plot!
One: Acquire buttload
of dark magic.
Two: Use aforementioned buttload
to reenact the original
Triad spell
and raise Malivore
from the Pit. Three:
Rewrite the spell
so that Malivore serves you
instead of the Triad.
Four: Malivore is your servant
forever.
Yes. That's pretty much it.
Well, I didn't say
plan.
It's just a little small.
What?
I get why you're pissed
at Malivore, but
don't you think you should do
more with all that black magic
than bring him back
to shine your shoes?
He started it.
It's petty.
You're better than this. - Ah...
We're better than this.
This spell's a sequel, right?
That means it has to be bigger
and badder than the one before.
I must admit, I like
the sound of that.
What do you have in mind?
We bring back Malivore,
just like you said.
But we don't stop there.
We bring back...
the monsters.

What is that thing?
Oh, no name.
But the "Fork of Saving

You built this today?
Yeah. Damn, girl.
You want to thank me?
Be sure to tell my dad
how awesome I am.
Sometimes I think
he wonders.
He'll figure it out.
Your dad's a good guy.
You're lucky,
you know?
To have a dad
like him.
Who makes mistakes because
he's trying to protect you.
Well, at least
you have the moppet.
Yeah.
But I hate that it has
to come to this for him.
Are you sure about this?
Uh, I mean, it's
kind of ironic, huh?
Raf spent all day
yesterday convincing me
to go back inside my body,
and today he needs me
to give the most important piece
of it away.
It's not the most
important piece.
You sure about that?
It doesn't...
it doesn't matter.
I'd lay in front
of a bus for him.
At least this plan seems
a lot less painful.
We're ready.
Um...
Let's get started.
Moppet, you are here.
Raf, there.
And, Hope, you're moral support,
so don't screw it up.
Thanks.
You can start now.
Start, but
nothing's happening.
What do you mean?
There isn't any magic
in the moppet to siphon.
I don't
understand.
She means
I'm not a phoenix anymore.
It makes sense. The golden
arrow felled the phoenix,
just like the prophecy said.
Wait. But you were brought back.
As a human, but the
phoenix part of me died,
leaving me one final,
mortal life.
I should have known.
I can feel it. I feel...
different.
I can't believe
that this is happening.
We'll run more tests.
Maybe there's something
- we missed.
- I can go outside
and try to fly. How?
By jumping off a roof
and hoping you sprout wings
before you break your neck?
No!
I don't want to waste another
second fighting a losing battle.
I want to make
the most of whatever
little time that I have left.
Just want to be with...
with my friends.
I want to go out
on my own terms.
What are you gonna do with me?
Take you to your son.
Rafael. He needs you.
He's dying.
He's a werewolf,
like you.
It's a...
a complicated story, but he only
has one day left to live.
He's a good kid.
He's a really good kid.
And he shouldn't have
to face his fate alone.
He deserves to have people
by his side who love him.
He...
have his mother. Why?
He never did.
I left him because
I couldn't be that for him.
He's better off without me.
Mac, what are you doing?
She can go.
If it's what you want.
She'll come back.
Trust me.
Hey.
Could use
those Tribrid muscles.
Got a couple more kegs
I need to haul over.
But I can see that
you're not in the mood
for a, um... for a party.
I think I'm just
a sore loser.
I've beaten death more
times than I care to count,
and I really thought we
were gonna beat it again.
Hey, uh... it's okay, Hope.
I'm serious.
I'm not afraid.
I believe that everyone gets
their own version of heaven.
For me, it's gonna be
my best day ever,
just on a loop.
A day outside
with the people I love.
But...
I'm gonna appreciate
everything I can while I'm here.
I mean, a supernova that we can
actually see with our naked eye?
I mean, that's once
in a lifetime.
A lifetime.
Hey, um, there's something
that I need you to do.
It's, uh, one last favor,
it's, uh, for Landon. Sorry.
I can't right now.
Yo!
What's with the long faces?
Come on, I wanted
this to be a-a party,
like the one the first night
when I came here.
Not a funeral.
We're trying our best,
Raf, but it's...
it's a lot.
Look, just-just think
of something, uh, funny.
Or something stupid
or embarrassing that I did
that you'll always remember.
Like the, um...
Wh... Uh, what was it?
Uh...
"Expectation was a cancer."
"Oh, you can't, sir?
Then who will?"
Come on.
That awful beat poetry thing
I did?
Then there was that one time
you turned with your uniform on.
It was pretty wild,
seeing a full-blown werewolf
with a tie around its neck.
That's the spirit.
Keep it going.
Okay, well, I don't
know if this is too funny,
but there was that time...
Lan.
Man, come on. Bring your
ass outside.
What? I know you got
dirt on me for days.
I'm sorry.
I just can't pretend.
Okay, all r... all right. Uh...
Then let's bounce.
Just me and you.
Look, I got what
I needed from here.
I want to spend the rest
of whatever time I have left
with my brother.
All right.
I'm scared, Dad.
Raf's not gonna make it
and there's nothing we can do.
So we need you back here ASAP.
I need you back.
I'm on my way.
- We have to go.
- Ric.
Don't give up on her yet.
Werewolves are instinctual.
You didn't even know
about them before today
and you won't tomorrow,
so what makes you think
she's any different?
She's a mother, like me.
So I am counting
on her instincts,
because we all make mistakes
with our kids.

Dad?
W-We came looking for you.
I heard.
But I'm here now.
And I'm not
going anywhere.
What can I do, son?
Exactly what you're doing
now.
Lizzie.
Did you see the supernova?
Kind of hard to miss it.
Is that what I think it is?
I had an idea.
Please tell me you
know where your dad
keeps his stash
of Bennett blood.
Off the record,
I can think of at least three
super-secret hiding spots.
Let's go.
We're running out of time.
He's gone.
I mean, Rafael's
literally gone.
I didn't know werewolves
disappear when they die.
They don't.
Come with me.
I have some explaining to do.
Come on.
Last night Rafael told me
what his version of heaven
looked like.
And it gave me an idea.
How you feeling, son?
Um, better than I ever have.
Is, um, is this heaven?
Depends on your
definition.
Your friends found
another way.
And your headmaster
found someone else.
You're so tall.
Just like your grandfather.
Rafael,
this is...
Mom.
If you want to call me that,
but I don't think I deserve...
I-Is any of this real?
Your friends can explain
a lot better than we can.
They're waiting for you.
One last time.
Even though
we couldn't heal him,
we could still save him,
so Lizzie and I used the coven
ascendant and supernova
to give Raf peace
as he defined it.
Hey.
Um, what's-what's going on?
What's up?
What's up?
I-I know you got a lot of
questions that need answers.
I just want you to know
that I never doubted
that you were gonna survive this
for a second.
I knew the whole...
I really...
Okay, I-I doubted it hard.
But, uh, you
know who didn't?
My man.
We're gonna miss you, man.
Because a prison world
is only a prison
if you're alone.
We can't stay,
but he can.
With everything he needs
to keep him safe and happy.
With his family.
Goodbyes really do suck.
Always and forever.
Maybe that's what heaven is.
Can't believe she pulled it off.
Like I said,
she finds ways.
Yeah.
Hope was right
about another thing, too.
Goodbyes sure do suck.
Yeah.
It's more like "see you later."
This is a prison world.
I can visit.
Yeah.
I promise I will.
Yeah.
Our world won't be the same
without you, man.
Look, the only promise
that I need...
is that you'll live
your last life
like we always talked about.
All in.
'Cause that's what I'm gonna do
with them.
My family.
Just sucks that I got
to leave this one behind.
You deserve it.
You've always been all in.
For me.
For everybody.
And I love you, brother.
I love you, too, man.
Wait, wait, wait.
I almost forgot.

Hey, um, are you guys
sure you still want to do this with me?
I was already
living my life like a hermit.
So this suits me just fine.
If every day is the same here,
that means there'll never
be a full moon.
Sounds like an
upgrade to me.
And besides,
other people and I haven't
gotten on so well
lately, so your father
and I are...
♪ Of the falling snow... ♪
All in.
Guess it runs in the family.
Hey. Did you guys know
we're royalty?
When did you get back?
Like, an hour
or two ago.
I mean, I figured you'd want
to say goodbye to Raf alone.
You really came through for him.
I promised you I would.
Even if it wasn't
how I figured, but...
You know, the supernova's
still going on.
Lizzie can send you back.
You're not seriously
suggesting
I go back to the prison world.
Maybe.
Maybe for a little while,
maybe until
all of this Necromancer nonsense
blows over.
You'd be with Raf,
you'd be safe.
You wouldn't be there.
I don't see the point.
The point is,
is that I'm scared.
Even though we saved Raf,
it still feels like we lost him,
and you of all people know
what that does to me.
Especially now
that you're human.
You mean weak?
Somebody you're
gonna have to spend the rest
of your life worrying about
and, and-and-and protecting?
- Landon...
- Now that I'm
- not special.
- Don't put that on me.
I've never needed you
to be special.
I've always loved you
for you.
I love you now.
Why are you picking a fight
about this?
Because not once
today did you say
that it would be okay.
Me giving up everything
that made me fit in
at this school,
everything that makes me fit
with you.
We only work
when I'm unbreakable, and today,
when you were telling me
that I go back
to being just me,
you didn't say
that it'd be okay,
that we would be okay.
And I know why you
didn't say it.
'Cause you don't believe it.
Admit that.
I promised Raf that I'd live
my life the best I can.
And what you want
isn't living, Hope.
Not to me.
So, in conclusion,
Malivore is raised,
beholden to me.
All the monsters incarcerated in
his accursed pit are liberated.
And I, the Almighty Necromancer,
shall hold dominion over them
and this entire plane.
shall hold dominion.
Partners.
That's what we said.
It really is none
of your concern.
And not the reason I reunited
your soul with your furry flesh.
Then why am I returned?
Because you're
an all-seeing oracle.
So shouldn't you know?
I surely could.
But I quite like
the way he talks.
Then listen well,
you fantastic man-lion,
and answer me this:
Will our plan fail or succeed?
It shall come to pass
as you have described.
Ah! Yeah!
And what about
the Salvatore students?
Will they suffer?
Very much.
And one...
will die.
Told you it'd work.
You were right...
partner.
