Revelations (2005): Season 1, Episode 4 - Hour Four - full transcript

Houston, we're looking at
something a little unusual up here...

between Arcturus and Izar.

There shouldn't be
anything between

Arcturus and Izar,
except open space.

Well, there's something
there now, and it's solid.

It's reflecting light.

Hello? Richard.

Jonah. Is your telescope up?

No, I haven't touched
it since I got back.

You'd better get over here.

There's something you must
see tonight. I'll be right over.



Hoath.

I had a beautiful dream.

Tell me.

Take a look.

I saw it right through
her own eyes.

There are many Sisters
of Mercy Convents.

But...

we'll get right on it.

Nathan.

I want her heart.

Can I help you folks?

Can you tell us which is the
window of Isaiah Haden? Why?

We'd like to park
where we can see him.

He's goin' to court tomorrow,
and we're here to pray.



All of us are.

How could it have just
popped up overnight?

A t first, I thought
comet or asteroid.

But in the past three
days, it has tripled in size.

Could we be watching
the birth of a star?

A star on steroids, getting
bigger and brighter every moment.

I bet your nun would say, "The
birth of this star in the east...

is a sign of the second
coming of the Christ."

No, she believes Christ is here.

And this star in the east, when
it's viewed from the Holy Land,

with the Earth's rotation,
it wouldn't be in the east.

It would be in the west.

They know Haden.
They know his network.

Maybe they know
something about Hawk...

Who's taken him, where and why.

They're in the witness
protection program.

I'm not asking about where these
people are. I don't need to know that.

I just wanna have a phone
conversation with them.

Boyd! Look, we've
been through this before.

Time...

Time is everything now.

You call the
switchboard at 6:00 p.m.

You tell them you
want my bypass.

You punch in this code, and
you answer the voice menu.

You will be given a
cell phone number...

that will only
be good till 6:15.

Thank you.

That's all I can do.

This is WKSB, news
for all of New England.

In Boston today, security
forces at Wilton Penitentiary...

were prepared for an onslaught of
national media and local spectators...

here to get a glimpse of Isaiah Haden
on the way to his first court appearance.

But few expected the hundreds of
"pilgrims," as they call themselves,

drawn here in a show of support
for the cult leader and Satanist...

alleged to have sacrificed
the 12-year-old daughter...

of Harvard professor Richard
Massey in a brutal Satanic ritual.

No question, this case
is a potential star maker,

certainly for Assistant
D.A. Nelson Boyd,

whose mettle will be tested by
defense counsel Nathan Volk,

known for defending high-profile
cases of hate crimes and terrorism...

which often collapse
before ever going to trial.

There's a rich tradition for
this sort of case in this state,

where in Salem County,

citizens were once
jailed and executed...

based on hysterical claims
they practiced witchcraft.

My client has been jailed...

on just such claims, brought
by a man who is suspected...

of kidnapping a brain-dead child
from a hospital in Miami, Florida,

just as he kidnapped my client
from the streets of Santiago, Chile,

just as he is now...

on a quest worldwide to
kidnap Jesus Christ himself.

That was Nathan Volk.

And this is Susan
Welsh, reporting—

It's so good to see
you, Josepha. And you.

I can always count on you
to smile when all looks lost.

All but hope.
Hope is never lost.

You found the child.

No. We traced him to Patmos, but he was
gone when we arrived. We don't know where.

But there are
eyewitness accounts...

of the miracles that he performed
and of his powers to heal.

Some of the healings were
undone, which led me to doubt.

But then I met the
mother. She's alive?

Yes.

Listen, I'm confused. The
healings were undone?

Yes, but, as in the Scriptures,
"by the foot soldiers of Satan."

"So man will put it to death
as man has done before."

What holds your belief?

Anna-Theresa.

You know, Torvald, ever
since I was a little girl,

I've wanted to meet a saint.

I'd imagined it
completely differently.

I'd imagined perfection.

She's... young.

She's innocent.
She's flawed. She's...

You know, perhaps
she's as Mary was.

But when you look in her eyes,

there is such truth.

I know that she is the virgin mother
of the child that we're looking for.

All we have to do...

is to find the child.

And all the while, Satan rages.

And the devil plays in
the fields of the Lord.

More miraculous
pregnancies— Dozens of them...

Called in from every
point of the globe.

Argentina, Peru, Africa,
reported by ministries of health,

the Red Cross,
Doctors Without Borders.

There's a woman from
Romania who wrote to me herself.

I had her flown to a
hospital in Canada.

- I'd like for us to go see her.
- But...

- All these are virgin mothers?
- No, I didn't say that.

But you said "miraculous."

And I say no more until
we've seen for ourselves.

Using this, we can
pinpoint the exact location

of whoever answers
my call on a cell phone?

That's what it's designed for.

The F.C.C. requires cell phones have
global positioning to trace 911 calls.

So, call anywhere in the world.

Hello?

Rubio, where are you
right now? The office. Why?

Hang on. You want the
address? No. I'll find him.

What is it that I'm
looking at right now?

People asking for directions—
Cars, planes, trains, ships at sea.

- Ships at sea.
- We'll just isolate our little call.

And, bingo!

- Is that your address?
- That's impressive.

- So that took us 12 seconds.
- Thanks, Rubio.

We'll need to keep 'em on the line
that long. We've got a 15-minute window.

6:00 to 6:15. I'll
be back at 5:30.

Okay.

Samaael? Hey.

Come up here and see the lives
that are gonna go on without you.

Take a look.

Scorched by the fires of passion,
she deserted young Hawk.

That's my mom.

And what bliss did
your mother discover...

moving into a house
with no room for you?

Just for your replacement,
who slumbers in her womb.

You wanna go to her? Go ahead.

Step out of this truck.

Go down on that porch
and say, "Mom, I'm home,"

and we'll never
bother you again.

Hawk.

We'll have to take the
one that's inside of her.

Why?

'Cause a bargain's a
bargain. That's how we play.

For everything given,
something's taken away.

You'd take her baby
away? A bargain's a bargain.

That's how we play. You
can come, you can go,

but we own you either way.

Try it, Sam. But, remember,
a bargain's a bargain.

You give us up,
it'll be taken away.

- How you doin'?
- Car registration?

Absolutely.

Here we go.

You're Harold Clement? I am.

And these people?

This is my wife, Cleo,
and my little brother Sam.

Have we offended? Open the back.

Whoo! Cold one
out here, isn't it?

Open the tire well. All right.

No firearms?

No, sir. We're Mormons.

Why isn't Sam in
school? We're Mormons.

Out-of-state driver parked alone
in the backcountry this time of year?

Lot of bloodthirsty guys are out
here pushin' the season. The season?

Deer season.

Well, we're Mormons.

What did you say your
name was again, son?

Uh, sir, he's, uh— He's
profoundly hard of hearing.

Well, tell him in sign language.
You speak sign language?

I sure do.

Sorry. Am I pushin' the season?

Today is the day that friends

and family of Lucinda
Massey have been waiting for—

Particularly her father,
Richard Massey—

To see the man who admits
only to practicing his religion...

come into court and answer
for the unconscionable murder...

of an innocent child.

Unrepentant, Isaiah
Haden faces justice.

The security agency sent me.

You're early. I like the cold.

Can I see your
security clearance?

Okay. I have to check the car.

What happened to Gavin? He left.

Are you the new
guy? I'm the new guy.

Welcome aboard. Thank you.

All rise. Presiding
judge, Arlen Caine.

This court is in session.

We adhere to the
Constitution in this court...

and do not mix
church with state.

But I will say, God help
whoever is responsible...

for the charges
brought forth this day.

I would like to speak about
that— Church and state.

Your presence here
today is not for speaking...

but listening to the
charges brought against you.

I would like to speak about
that, though, when there's time.

You are charged with six
counts of criminal felony.

One count, house imprisonment.

One felony count, conspiracy to
kidnap and transport across state lines.

One felony count,
criminal battery.

One felony count,
conspiracy and torture.

And one felony count, premeditated
murder in the first degree.

- How do you plead?
- Oh, I can speak now?

- You will answer "Guilty" or "Not guilty."
- Well, what for?

With all due
respect, Your Honor,

I'm in a prison full of people who sat here
and did exactly what you told them to do.

Did their faith in your laws,

their blind obedience,
make any difference?

- Be quiet!
- Well, did it?

Or the other false prophets
elevated on stepping stool...

to play Almighty God!

Order! Order!

Behold the fury
on the day of wrath,

when the true ruler of man
reduces the hypocrites to dust!

- Beware of that day!
- That's enough!

For their flesh will
rot where they stand,

- and their tongue will rot in their mouth!
- Take him out of here!

Shut him up! And that is the first
smart thing you have said, little man.

Because my words will make
the walls of your prison crumble!

Because the word
is like a caged bird.

And once it is out,
there is no calling it back.

- Get him out of here!
- And the word from my cage is holy war!

Holy war!

Holy war!

Haden! Haden! Haden! Haden!
Haden! Haden! Haden! Haden!

Go.

They're picking up.

It's busy.

No, it's not going through.

It's not going through. Here,
here, here. Try mine. Try mine.

Try mine. All right.

It's ringing.

Hello.

Yeah.

This is the phone
company, and if you could

stand by, we're setting
up your new number.

We'd like to transfer it over directly
with you on the line. I'm sorry. I...

No. No, it's a new
system, actually.

It's a way that we hope you can save
some money on your household bill.

I don't need to save any
money, okay? I make enough.

No, I, um— I can't have
any way to call you back.

Uh, no— I'm hanging up now.

I really wish you wouldn't do that,
sir. I— Sir, please. No, I don't have—

I lost him.

We got him.

3457 Main Street, Alpine, New
Jersey. That's just five hours from here.

Haden!

Haden!

Haden!

Now, our sonograms
are state of the art.

We've taken some
very detailed pictures.

These pictures were
taken in Romania.

It's outdated technology.
You'll find it very hard to read.

It might've gone unnoticed,
except for her story,

which no one believed.
What was her story?

She was raped.

Mrs. Jennot, tell the
story for us, please.

Can you tell us your story?

It was—It was night...

and storming.

And there were
many. And I was alone.

I could—I could hear them.

This was not voice of man.

Other voice.

This was not man's feet.

Other feet.

And I—I run.

I run into the garden.

But I could not see.

And they hold me down,

and I cry,

"Please, God!"

I cry, "Please!"

And I see...

I see...

this is not a man.

This is a beast!

Where is God?

Where is my God?

God is with you.
God is with you.

I think you should see
this. I'll pray for you.

Torvald, what does it mean?

I know Revelations,
chapter and verse.

I know what it
predicts, but this, I...

I don't know what it means, and
I—I don't know how to deal with it.

It means that...

the game is escalating.

That miracles heaven-sent are
being answered with miracles from hell.

How to deal with
this, none would know,

except a scholar
of the dark side.

Bugenhagen, and he's gone.

But, I mean, his work, his
writing, someone must have it, no?

No, no. They say
he took it to his grave.

You can build your
muscles all you want,

but power comes not
from the physique...

but the strength of the
soul that lives within.

And that soul...

is born of discipline.

Not theirs— ours.

We are joined in a
brotherhood of discipline,

for we are all brothers here.

Our fate is the same.

Dr. Massey's office.
It's Sister Josepha.

Are you in front of
your computer? Uh-huh.

Could you type in
Bugenhagen for me?

B-U-G-E-N-H-A-G-E-N.

It should be under "exorcism."

Whoa. Cool.

He was last in a line of
15th-century exorcists.

He disappeared about 10
years ago. In the Holy Land,

"taking with him an
irreplaceable trove of

scholarly works in the
art of Satanic combat."

If you could find out where he
was last seen, who he was with...

and the names of anyone who
might know where his papers are.

It's Asteroth. I
found the child...

at Sisters of Mercy in
northern Pennsylvania.

How you wish it to be done?

Put some pressure on them
to try and make a run with her.

I'd rather avoid the attention of
turning a nunnery into a slaughterhouse.

Don't forget the reprints. Yeah.

Is it too late to get an enlargement
made? Sorry, we're just about to close.

Just this one.

- Andrea?
- Mm-hmm?

Uh, look. Uh...

I—I— Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey!

Just wait! I just
wanna talk to you!

Listen to me! My name is Richard
Massey. Lucy is my daughter.

I just need your help. Please.

I just need your help.

I have a flower delivery
for, uh— What's the name?

Olivia Beaudrey.

There's no Olivia Beaudrey here.

Sorry.

Yes?

We just had a flower
delivery for Olivia Beaudrey.

We didn't know what
was gonna happen there.

We were afraid
of him. We still are.

We didn't know what he was gonna
do until he did it. We couldn't stop it.

I don't—I don't know
how to talk about it to you.

It's nothing I would wanna
hear if I were a father.

Do you have a child?

A little girl.

So if you could save
her from something

like what happened to
mine— I'd do anything.

So would I.

Another's been
taken. Her stepbrother.

We saw on television. Is there
anything you know that could help him?

Help me find him.

Is he a virgin?

If he's Lucy's replacement,
he has to be pure.

Replacement? As the offering.

He considered her perfection.

He wanted to tutor her, prepare
her, but she wouldn't cooperate.

She loved God.

It made him very angry.
You made him angry too.

He called you
arrogant, blasphemer.

He'd looked at many children,
and he took her to humble you.

What kind of offering
was she supposed to be?

The birth of the unholy child.

The birth—What?

The blood of a virgin
must be spilled on the altar.

When? Where's this
supposed to happen?

Nobody knows when or where,
but that's what Lucy was for...

Maybe her stepbrother
now— As a sacrifice...

at the birth of the Antichrist.

Dr. Massey to see Isaiah Haden.

Officer 0-2, open 346-alpha.

Call if you need help, Dr. Massey.
Otherwise, we'll be looking the other way.

Richard.

Good to see you.

I'm gonna make this short.

Hey, I'm just grateful
you could squeeze me in.

I know you've been
traveling a lot lately.

But, listen, anytime you're in the
Boston area, please feel free to...

You— Could you bring me
some toothpaste next time?

I want him back,

more than I wanna see you die.

Do I hear a deal in the offing?

I spoke to the district attorney. He
says that he'll consider an insanity plea.

I'd have to be insane
to agree to that.

This is your last
shot at a life span.

You can read, you can
write, you can preach,

and you can live to an
old age in a hospital facility.

Sounds so attractive.

Just listen to this.
No, you listen to me!

We've got him, and
we're keeping him.

And you know what? He likes it.

He took to it like
a tick to blood.

His teachers say he's
doing excellent work.

I know why you took
him and why you took her.

Really? Are you a believer now?

I think I liked you better as a fool
lumping Satan in with Santa Claus.

Do you think he's a joke now?

You took my daughter for
this? Open your eyes, Richard.

It's a battle of the gods.

The nun speaks to heaven.

I speak to hell.

And you, who worships matter that matters
not, think you're better than us all.

You blaspheme her
god! You blaspheme mine!

I took your daughter to
bring you to your knees.

Do you still wanna
save me, Richard?

I can't save you.

But I know what my
daughter would've said.

"May God have
mercy on your soul."

I actually believe she did.

Henry, I'm at the courts.
Your e-mail said 4:00.

It's now 4:22.

Henry, it's 4:35. I'm hoping
something awful happened to you...

and that's why you're so late.

Henry, I didn't mean what I said
about something happening to you.

I'd die, as you know, if
anything happened to you,

'cause you're the only one
who understands me anymore.

So, be okay. Okay?

Henry, you won't believe
this creepy guy out here.

That's what he's
been carrying inside.

Hey!

Are you there? Oh, yes.

We'll be here for the
rest of your life, Henry.

Where is he? Is he in
yet? Look what I found.

I've gotta speak to him. I found
the world's expert on Bugenhagen.

He's even writing a book
about him. Daniel Goran.

Huh.

Hello?

Hello, Dr. Goran? Speaking.

This is Sister
Josepha Montafiore.

Sister Josepha Montafiore.
I knew we'd meet someday.

I'm in urgent need
of some information.

I've got the key to all
the information you need.

Ah. Well, shall I come to
you? Meet me in Prague.

The Narodni Museum.

- Oh, and can you bring Dr. Massey?
- I don't know.

He's dealing with a
problem right now.

Well, that's why he
should come. Urge him to.

It may be his only
hope of finding the boy.

I see.

Heels off the edge.

The sin you have chosen
to mark your life with...

will vanish into the abyss...

with the life of a man
who called himself Hawk.

If his body survives,
it will be as Samaael,

immune to God's
judgment for all eternity.

What sin did Hawk
choose above all others...

for which his god
would never forgive him?

He let his stepsister down.

He was late
because of basketball.

He forgot to pick
her up after school,

and she's dead because of it.

He let Lucinda down.

Think about that as you fall.

Forgive me.

The discovery of a rising star isn't always
about red carpets and Academy Awards.

Today, it's about a phenomenon
astronomers are calling unprecedented...

The accelerated
formation of a new star.

Though skeptics say it's an optical
illusion and will soon pass away,

others are convinced
it's here to stay.

Hi, this is Mark Rubio, Dr. Massey's
assistant. It's Mother Francine, Mr. Rubio.

I must speak with Sister
Josepha or Dr. Massey.

- We need help here right away.
- Well, they're on a plane right now.

Somebody sent her flowers here.

Somebody knows she's here.
But the point is, you're okay, right?

The point is, we're not!

Look, we will try to
manage this, but anything

that you can do, I
would deeply appreciate.

I don't know. Listen.
Where are you?

The mathematician in
me says it doesn't add up.

An archaeologist half a world
away holds the key to finding Hawk.

Makes as much sense as thinking
you can hold Armageddon at bay.

Do you know why the Dead
Sea Scrolls were hidden away?

No, I don't. Because centuries ago, people
believed that Armageddon was at hand.

It wasn't, was it?
Well, perhaps it was.

But people like us, who didn't
want to give up on humanity,

managed to put it
off to another day.

Get him!
