Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - This World Inverted - full transcript

After getting a tip from Meliorn, Clary must venture into an alternate universe. But can she act fast enough before she loses herself in this new world?

Welcome home.

Previously
on Shadowhunters...

Got a lot of stuff to work on here.

Like controlling my murderous tendencies.

Detective Garroway, I need
your badge and your gun.

- Who's this?
- His name is Fisk.

- Internal affairs.
- Look familiar?

Meliorn, the Clave has ordered
that you be placed under arrest.

We rule with our heads,
not with our hearts.

- I'm in.
- Please, just let Meliorn go.

You couldn't possibly understand...



It's you that doesn't understand, Alec.

- We'll fight Valentine together.
- No.

You spearheaded my rescue.

I'm offering you a gift. I
can help you find your father.

Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore.

Welcome to the
Seelie Glade, Clary Fairchild.

The remotest edges of it.

How did we get here?

There are entrances
all through the mundane world.

You just have
to know where to look.

Why did we have to come
here to find my father?

Because of your necklace.

It's a Portal shard.

Tell us something we don't know.



How does it work?

When I touch the crystal
and I think of someone,

I can see where they are.

I'm curious, Shadowhunter, who
knows so much about Portals,

did you never wonder why

this Portal shard doesn't
behave the way normal Portals do?

Normal Portals can only take
you to places you've been.

I guess I never really thought about it.

I see Isabelle is the
smart one in the family.

Your Portal shard works the way it does

because it's a piece of a
Portal from another dimension.

Another dimension?

You're saying there's a
Portal in some other universe

that can take us to anyone
if we just think of them?

If you can find the only Portal

still standing in that dimension...

it will take you to your father.

Then they put Jace in, and
that can't be, you know...

Just, hold on one second.

Where the hell have you been?

Where I needed to be.

Away from you and your fiancee.

Jace and Clary are on the run.

I can't protect you if you
don't tell me the truth.

I don't need protecting.

Meliorn's alive. That's all that matters.

Just... Hey, just...

...tell me this.

Is there any way that Raj could
have seen anything incriminating?

I don't think you can call it
an attack if no one got injured.

- We were ambushed.
- How is that possible?

Nobody outside the Institute
knew about the mission.

It was dark. We couldn't see much.

There were wolves... and the
others were hit with vampires.

But I swear, the one that got me...

moved a lot like a Shadowhunter.

These trees are
where the alternate dimensions

intersect the Seelie realm.

How is it possible
that the Clave doesn't know

about your dimensional doorways?

They are our most guarded secret.

We are their protectors.

Only Seelies know of their existence.

Then why are you telling us?

I owe you a life debt... and I
don't like being indebted to anyone.

What would happen if...

If the Seelie Queen finds
out I've shared this with you?

I could be executed.

Well, we'll be extra careful then.

There is no "we" in this scenario.

Only Clary goes in to find
the Portal. My debt is to her.

You've given us no reason
to trust you, Seelie.

He brought us here.

I knew the Seelies were
one with nature, but...

This will establish a
connection to the other dimension.

What's it like? The other
dimension. Is it like this one?

It is...

but it isn't.

Could you be more vague?

It is an alternate timeline, in a sense.

There, Shadowhunters and
demons no longer exist.

What?

And Downworlders have conformed

to the mundane way of
life to avoid detection.

What happened to the Shadowhunters?

Their services were no longer required,

because they won the war against
the demons, centuries ago.

Once they sealed the rifts between
their worlds...

their culture faded away.

Once you arrive in the alternate dimension,

you will assume the body
of the Clary in that world.

You will think and feel just like her.

But I'll still know I'm me, right?

I'll know I have to find the Portal?

There's a catch.

With Seelies, there's always a catch.

Your alternate self could
consume you if you let it.

Is there a way to not let it?

Focus on the differences
between that world and ours.

Find something or someone to
keep you grounded to this one.

Easy enough.

It will be more difficult than you think.

If you don't hurry, you could cease

to be this world's Clary Fairchild.

And be stuck in that world forever.

What am I supposed to do?

Just sit on my hands if Clary needs help?

Let the pack handle it.

We can't afford to lose
our leader right now,

with everything that's going on

with the Shadow World and Valentine.

I promised Jocelyn I'd look after her.

When you killed Theo, you
promised to take care of this pack.

But you can't do that if you're
locked up in internal affairs

or being sucked dry by some vampire.

There's something dead outside.

What are you doing here?

Raphael has appointed me
ambassador to the werewolves.

Why the hell would you do that?

Because of my close personal
connection with Luke.

Enough!

Give us a minute.

I thought me and Alaric were cool.

You were.

Then I became Nerdferatu.

You know, I thought we were one.

Allies, brothers in arms and all that.

Yeah, it's not that simple.

Because vampires and
werewolves hate each other?

Not all vampires and werewolves.

So, why did you really come here?

Raphael is not the most patient
trainer in the Shadow World.

What happened?

He got frustrated with my training
and told me to take a walk.

And you decided to go to the one place

where you could get
torn apart by wild dogs?

Seemed like a good idea at the time.

I was ordered to bring you these.

So, let me guess, your training
stalled somewhere around here?

Emotions running hot?

Anything and everything
makes you wanna vamp out?

It's like... it's like going
through puberty all over again.

Just with less zits.

Mmm. It's the same way with new werewolves.

I just need to be sure it's safe.

Just in case I don't make it back.

You're coming back.

What do either of us know
about interdimensional travel?

- Little bit.
- Not helping.

It's time.

Meliorn, I appreciate
the risk you're taking,

but a life debt requires
you ensure my safety.

I'll agree to go alone...

but if I find this alternate Portal,

I won't be able to face
Valentine on my own.

She'll need backup.

If you find the Portal,
you may come back for him.

Shadowhunters need Seelie
permission to go through.

Only demons can pass through unaided.

...a Brooklyn
fireman heroically rescued

a terrified puppy from a drain pipe

in Crown Heights yesterday
morning. Remy Hershel...

Where's my mother?

Whoa.

Is this from one of your cosplay skits?

Uh, honey?

Come in here. You gotta see this.

No, seriously, you have to let
me come with you, just once, okay?

I want to see what you do
at these things, all right?

Val, you're
not allowed to do cosplay.

You'd stick out like a sore thumb.

Mom.

Wow.

Wow, if you miss us this much, you should

really leave the dorm room more often.

Right. Sorry.

Hmm.

Clary...

in honor of your father's
Mad Hatter party tonight.

Your mom made waffles for you.

Come on, kiddo, you gotta
eat somethin', right?

So, Clarissa...

when do I get to meet this
new man in your life, hmm?

Val...

What? I have to...

give my stamp of
approval, right?

Oh, Clary, look at
this commercial, it's hilarious.

- Oh, yeah.
- It's so bad, it's good.

...and almost broke
when Magnus Bane helped me figure out

what I was supposed
to do with my life.

Now?

I run my own dojo.

After being
mauled by a suspect's dog...

Magnus helped me realize that maybe

the police force wasn't my calling.

So I opened up a rare bookstore.

Now, I'm
doing what I love.

Thanks, Magnus Bane.

I'm Magnus Bane.

Come in today for a tarot
card and psychic reading.

I'll help you find your way.

- I have to go.
- What?

I thought you were spending
the morning with us.

I, uh, have a last minute assignment due

that I haven't even started yet, so...

- I gotta go.
- Well, we'll see you tonight, right?

Clarissa?

- I'm sorry.
- For what?

Isabelle Lightwood, by order of the Clave,

you are under arrest for high treason.

What? On what grounds?

Only a handful of people
knew about the Meliorn op.

And everyone knows she's sleeping with him.

You know what, Lydia? You're
no better than Valentine.

But at least he had the guts to
tell Downworlders to their faces

he wanted them all dead.

You...

hide behind the Law.

I don't hide behind it,
Isabelle. I simply follow it.

Because it guards against
one very important thing.

Shadowhunters fighting other Shadowhunters.

If she is convicted, she'll be
stripped of her runes and banished.

- I can't let that...
- Don't.

It's not your fight.

Hey. Where have you been?

We've been texting you
for, like, 20 minutes.

- Simon, get out of the sun.
- Hey, what the hell?

I know that look.

Caffeine deprivation.

Come on, Tweek.

Simon, I do not have time for coffee today.

No, no, no. I know that look in your eye.

And when you get that look, I either
have to caffeinate you immediately

or accept full responsibility
for you killing someone.

And you know how I am
with blood.

Is that new?

Yes, I got it a couple days ago.

Oh, it goes with your dress?

Because you're getting ready
at my place tonight, right?

Ready for what?

That is not even a little bit funny.

I have poured my heart
and soul into planning

this anniversary party for the
Institute. And the theme is amazing.

Mmm.

- Here you go, buddy.
- Thanks, man.

This one's for Clary.

She's here?

But, seriously, what is with
this guy and the Mad Hatter?

Visionaries are quirky crazy.

You don't get 4D Internet
tech thinking inside the box.

I'm beginning to wonder if you
don't have a thing for your boss.

Like, if Clary's dad would ever go for me.

Wait, my dad?

Uh...

No, I'm totally kidding.

I mean, I'm not
crushing on your dad, right?

- No.
- Right, of course not.

That'd be totally weird.

Yeah. Mmm-hmm.

- Order's up.
- Hi.

We're setting up at 6:00, right?

Yeah, okay. I need your
help tonight... loading.

This gig could be... huge for me.

- Hey.
- Hey.

You wanna get out of here?

Sure.

I can't wait till tonight.

For the party?

Just shut up and kiss me.

Stop!

I'm sorry, I can't.

Clary.

It's funny how similar
werewolves and vampires are.

Makes you wonder why we can't get along.

So, Clary getting us
to fight together was...

It was practically a miracle.

It says a lot about who
she could be as a leader.

She's got moxie.

She'll be all right.

Because she's with Jace?

No.

Because she's a fighter. Like her mom.

She'll fight her way
back to us if she has to.

Well, not that this
Downworlder thing isn't fun...

but it's not.

I just wanna go home.

You can't.

Not until you control your
impulses. You understand me?

- Just keep practicing.
- Okay.

Luke Garroway. Don't move.

Here we go. Okay.

Just do what he says.

Shut up!

Turn around.

Nice and slow.

That's it.

You didn't think you could
hide forever, did you, Garroway?

I figured I'd try.

We'll put this one down
as an epic fail, then.

I'm takin' you in.

- Calm, Simon.
- You, too.

Simon...

- Stay where you are.
- Simon, no!

I was ready to rip his throat out.

How'd you stop me?

Wolf reflexes.

Who the hell is this guy?

Internal affairs.

Thinks I killed my captain
and a couple other people

connected to the demonic murders.

- Did you?
- Only one.

Protecting Clary from the Circle.

Oh. Enough said.

So, what now?

If Clary doesn't make it out of there soon,

you're gonna be meditating six feet under.

Shadowhunter, have you ever
seen a Seelie knight fight?

I wouldn't be so cocky about
your prowess if I were you.

What's going on?

Opening the doorway to this dimension
may not have been a good idea.

On a scale from one to
namaste, how screwed are we?

Demons are attracted to this dimension.

It's defenseless and peaceful.

They like chaos and havoc.

All right, pointy ears, looks
like yoga time might be over.

The Lovers.

You are in a loving relationship.

This man has a strong hold on you.

You feel a magnetic attraction
to him that you cannot escape.

Tonight will define your relationship.

Oh.

You hope he is your soul mate.

But secrets revealed will
threaten to tear you apart.

You don't have a cat.

I have two.

Chairman Meow...

...and Church.

I'm not actually here for a reading.

I know you're a warlock, Magnus.

I'm a Shadowhunter.

There are no more Shadowhunters.

Haven't been for hundreds of years.

I can prove it.

All I see, Shadowhunter...

is you could use a serious tan.

Right. Bad strategy.
No runes in this dimension.

I'm from an alternate reality.

If that were true...

without an anchor, you'd be
assimilating into this world.

Believe me, I
am trying to fight it.

Which is part of why I need your help.

In my dimension, Shadowhunters
still battle demons.

And now there is something so much worse.

I need your magic to help me stop it.

I can't help you.

My magic's gone dormant.

Then wake it up.

Lydia... can we talk?

Is this where you
tell me the engagement's off?

What? No.

Why wouldn't you?

Can we just talk off the record?

Head of Institute hat off?

Yeah.

Listen, I need to come clean about
what happened at the City of Bones.

Isabelle was there, wasn't she?

Yeah... and Jace and Clary.

And some vampires and werewolves.

They thought they were stopping
a war with the Downworld.

Well, they weren't wrong, but I had orders.

Yeah, and I understand
that better than anyone.

But I can't let Izzy be exiled for this.

In the eyes of the Clave, she's guilty.

I mean, how do you
propose we get around that?

I may have something that the Clave wants.

I can give them the Mortal Cup.

Alec, you have it?

Why didn't you tell me before?

I promised Jace.

And there's this thing with Clary...

It's... I get it. He's
your parabatai.

I'm gonna trade the Cup for Izzy's freedom.

Do you think the Clave would go for it?

To keep it out of Valentine's
hands, they'll do anything.

Where is it?

Jace.

This better work.

What does that do?

Hopefully...

kick-start my magic.

And?

Give it a minute?

That book is very precious.

Warlock spells preserved
in all their grandeur.

It's stunning.

This isn't working.

This is the longest I've ever abstained.

From a lot of things.

Why don't you just try something simple?

Move that.

Usually, you have a little bit more of a...

flourish to it.

I do not look like that.

Well...

Magnus, we just have to find the Portal.

Even if my magic was working,

I'd still need an energy
signature of some kind to track it.

Maybe we try something different.

I don't know how this came
into this dimension with me.

Because it's of this dimension.

It belongs here.

Oh. Now that's what I'm talking about.

We have lift off.

The energy is very faint.

It's been dormant for a long time. Like me.

Let's see if we can wake it up.

Can you see it?

Yes. It's in a subbasement of...

Fort Knox.

Like, literally Fort...

No, but it might as well be. The Institute.

Why is that a problem?

High tech, high security.
Impossible to get into.

And hosting an anniversary party
tonight that I have the hookup to.

- _
- Damn.

Meet me tonight at 7:00
p.m. at the Institute.

Dress to impress.

Keep it short.

Jace stole the Cup.

Izzy, did you know about this?

My God, did you help him?

The Cup is the only thing
that can get you out of this.

Jace is doing what he thinks is right.

What's right?

He put the whole Shadow World in danger.

He put you in danger. We
have to get him back here.

With the Cup. It's the only
thing that can help you.

They've taken Meliorn
back to the Seelie realm.

You can't track him there.

Not by any of the normal ways.

No, absolutely not.

You cannot track Jace through
your parabatai bond.

It will weaken both of you.

Or break the bond.

Jace already weakened it.

How does he think I can
trust him after what he did?

Don't say that. Please, Alec.

Think about what you're doing.

Good.

You're awake.

I would hate to start this with you...

completely out of it.

A formalin pump?

The perfect little siphoning tool.

You wanna see how it works?

- No.
- Don't be shy.

You'll be fine. It only hurts a little bit.

Until I die.

Yeah.

That is one of the side effects

of extracting all of the
blood from the human body.

You're the demonic killer.

You know, I don't...
I don't like that title.

It makes me angry.

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

Let's get you hooked up to this thing.

Please, no. No. Hey, please.

Please, don't.

No, no, no.

- Don't!
- Stop squirming.

You'll just make it worse for yourself.

No! No!

Help me!

Help me!

- Stop.
- No! No! No!

Hey.

No! No!

- God... No! No!
- Stay still.

Somebody help me!

Stop!

I told you it wasn't me.

What's the emergency?

Oh, my God. What happened?

Kickboxing class. I thought,
"Why not? Quick class after work.

And, boom! Home in time to see you."

Well, you got the "boom" part right.

Andrea's foot right into my face.

She has to pick today to
finally land her roundhouse?

- It's... It's okay. We'll fix it.
- Oh, my God.

What are people gonna think?

And then Alec worked so hard to plan this.

I just cannot not go to the party.

- And what am I supposed to do?
- Hey.

- I worked so hard.
- Hey, we're gonna fix it.

Okay.

But then we have to fix you and Jace,

because the two of you not
talking really messes with my chi.

Are you
sure those are the colors?

We will make it work.

Okay, because if I don't
show up to the party,

your dad and Simon are so gonna kill me.

So, um...

do you think you could get a friend
of mine on the guest list for tonight?

Um... well, if you make this
work, I'll do anything for you.

See, I was obsessed when I was a kid.

Alice looked into the mirror
and fell into another dimension.

Well, it must have stuck with
me, because, when I grew up,

I looked into the Internet and
realized it needed another dimension.

And our 4D, breaking-the-speed-barrier
Internet was born.

Says my talented developer.

People said I was mad, so...

I owned it, hmm?

Thank you so much for the gig, Mr. M.

Simon, how many times
do I have to tell you?

Sorry... Val.

Poker night. Next Saturday, all right?

Yes! Is Blackwell is gonna be there?

'Cause that guy is a sore loser.

Yeah, that's 'cause you bled him dry.

If you'll excuse me, I have some
pressing matters to attend to.

Take care.

- I love the hat.
- I know you do.

May I?

Jace. Hi. Um...

Clary, what's going on with you?

Nothing.

I'll be right back.

Val...

So...

This must be the Jace
I've heard so much about.

Uh, yes, sir. Yeah.

Sir is for my father.

Call me... Mr. Morgenstern.

Okay. Um...

Uh, Dad, this is, um, our song.

Oh, right. Nice to meet you.

It was a pleasure to nice...
Uh, nice to meet you as well.

Damn it.

Uh, Clary...

What...

What's going on with you?

You...

You ran away from me this morning.

And you...

you didn't respond to my texts all day,

and now you won't even dance with me?

I'm sorry, okay? Really, I am.

I just...
I've got a lot on my mind.

Just one dance.

Fine. Okay.

- One.
- One?

- One.
- You got somewhere else to be?

Hodge, you ready?

Alec, don't do this out of anger.
Jace is still your parabatai.

Lydia's right.

I'm not letting Jace sacrifice my sister
for his girlfriend's pointless crusade.

We're doing this.

And if you don't want to help, get out.

I'll help... but on one condition.

What?

You don't let it go too far.

Now your bond with Jace can
withstand a certain amount of strain.

But you have to promise me
that you won't let it break.

Jace is dead to me.

- Alec?
- You don't know

how dependent you are on the bond,

or how dependent you are on each other.

I have to do this.

For Izzy.

Prepare yourself.

This will be very, very painful.

Do it.

Do you hear that?

Where the hell did you get those?

The Earth provides, Shadowhunter.

Don't just stand there!

Concentrate.

Reach out with your mind... and your heart.

Use every strand,

every fiber of you that
is connected to him.

It's working.

I can see him.

Jace!

Alec!

You know where he is?

Check it again.

I told you, I'm on the list.

You're not here.

What seems to be the problem?

This one wants to crash the party.

I'll be responsible for this one.

Come on in.

To us.

And you are?

- Magnus Bane.
- Alec Lightwood.

Thanks, but...

I gotta go.

Playing hard to get. I love a challenge.

- I need to borrow your lady.
- Okay.

Well, promise you'll give her back to me?

Cross my heart and hope to die.

Well, I'll have to trust you.

All right.

I'm gonna ask Izzy to move in with me.

Oh, my God, Simon. She's
totally gonna say yes.

You think so?

I mean, I don't know.
Maybe it's a bad idea.

Like a really bad
idea. It could be a bad idea.

Simon... look into my eyes.

- The Dracula stare.
- Mmm-hmm.

Well played.

- Okay, I'm good. I'm good.
- All right.

Go get 'em, tiger.

Okay.

Come on, let's go.

Who are you?

Clary, it's me, Magnus.

Do I know you?

Focus.

Okay, seriously, let go of me.

What is wrong with you?

Dude, I...

That was close.

- You're telling me.
- This way. Let's go.

Is that him?

Yeah, they're running the prints now.

Thanks for...

Just doing my job.

About that.

IA is off your back. For good.

Hell, the mayor wants to give you a medal.

I'll just take some time off.

Okay.

Thanks.

Detective.

So... how'd I do?

- Hmm.
- What?

You shot me, like, a gazillion times.

Shouldn't have had to.

What's that? Alaric's working his magic

so you're not associated
with the demonic murders.

You saved our Alpha. The
pack's indebted to you.

So, I'm thinking... moo shu pork for life?

What are we even looking for?

I'll know it when I see it.

What if this doesn't work?

It will, biscuit. I can feel it.

You know, if you were having
second thoughts about us,

you could have told me,
instead of coming down here

and hooking up with some random guy.

- Jace, this isn't exactly a good time.
- Really?

You know when would be a
good time for me, Clary?

Never.

Never call me again.

- What the hell is that thing?
- Let's go.

Did you kill it?

No.

It went through?

I have to shut the entrance.

More demons are coming.

What about Clary?

You said you Seelies
protect other dimensions.

We do.

There is a demon in there with
a bunch of unprotected people.

Let me in.

- I can kill it.
- If I seal the doorway behind you...

I know, the Portal is the only way out.

I'm willing to take that
risk. Grant me entry.

Remember, you won't have your seraph blade.

Demons don't disintegrate
in this dimension.

Go.

It's okay. It's okay.

- Jace?
- Yeah.

You okay?

Thank God, it's you.

Jace! Jace!

No. No.

What was that?

I don't know.

But if they're in there,
they're not coming out.

Mind filling me in?

Jace!

Jace?

Jace. Oh, my God!

Jace, it's okay, it's okay. Breathe.

Jace?

Where's my stele?

It didn't come through with you.

You're gonna need more
than a stele for that.

Will Portaling him back
to his own body cure him?

No. Blood travels with you.

It's why your angelic
powers still work here.

The demon venom is in his blood.

Then we have to get him back to
the Institute in our dimension.

No, we've gotta find Valentine.

Jace, you're in no condition to fight.

We might not get another chance,
Clary. This is too important.

I found it!

Come on.

Magnus.

You'll have to
destroy the Portal after we go through.

Why?

To secure your dimension from all sides.

Otherwise, if it stays open,

you'll be vulnerable
to demon attacks again.

I'll take care of it...

and the malodorous
monstrosity on that table.

Thank you.

Well, I should be thanking you.

No... you gave me back
a life. I won't forget it.

Now, go.

Think of your father.

- Hey. Hey, Alec!
- Just... Just wait.

What happened?

Are you and Jace okay?

No.

Our parabatai bond, it's just...

so weak.

He's like a ghost.

Alec, what did you do?

Lydia and I thought we could stop the trial

if we gave the Cup to the Clave.

Lydia helped you?

It doesn't matter.

She has no choice but to go
through with the trial now.

It's okay, big brother. I know you tried.

I'm sorry.

Jace.

Okay.

It's okay. It's okay. I'm here, it's okay.
