Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Major Arcana - full transcript

After piecing together the clues as to where her mother hid the Mortal Cup, Clary, Jace, Alec and Isabelle are on the clock to find its hiding place before anyone else. But with demons and Downworlders lurking everywhere, obtaining the Cup may not be as easy as they had hoped. Meanwhile, as Simon's symptoms become increasingly worse, he fears he is turning into a vampire.

Previously on Shadowhunters...

- Was he bitten by an alpha?
- Yeah.

Oh, my God.

- Have you spoken to Jace yet?
- He can call me

when he's done chasing the little girl.

Stir.

We can't have that girl
out of Institute control.

The entire Shadow World is looking for her.

You do not get to talk about Alec, mundane.

I've closed myself off to
feeling anything for anyone.

You've unlocked something in me.



I'm always gonna have your back.

I know where my mother hid the Cup.

I know where the Cup is.

- Come again?
- The tarot cards.

My mom, she must have
painted them years ago,

but the Mortal Cup has to be
hidden inside the Ace of Cups.

The card looks exactly like it.

Wait, why aren't you guys happy about this?

All we have to do is find...

Dot.

If Dot had the cards when she was
taken, we don't have much time.

If Valentine gets his hands on the Cup...

We know.

If Valentine started creating Shadowhunters



or gained control of demons,

it'd be like Beyonce riding on
a dinosaur through Times Square.

People would notice.

But he can control demons. I've seen it.

Mmm, paying off a few demons is easy,

especially since they rarely
survive long enough to collect.

Still waiting on
Valentine's thank-you card.

Opening the gates of hell...
that's a little more tricky.

Valentine doesn't have the cards.

I do.

They're in my desk back at the precinct.

When Clary went missing,

I went to the loft and
I cleared everything out,

'cause I didn't want
the Circle to track her.

That's great. This should be easy.

Hmm, that's what General Custer said.

Magnus is right.

Valentine has spies
everywhere, even in the NYPD.

- We have to be discreet.
- Discreet?

You look like something out
of The Mummy movie.

We'll go in the morning.

Werewolf healing, remember?

This is nothing a couple of
hours of beauty sleep can't fix.

Hi.

Okay, who are you and
what did you do with Simon?

Simon? Never heard of him.

I'm serious. I've never
seen this side of you before.

First, you're acting really weird,

you're disappearing for days on end.

Now, this.

I mean, I've always thought you were cute,

but last night you were...

I don't know.

You were amazing.

Like, Fifty Shades of amazing?

Like, Pon farr amazing.

I love it when you speak Vulcan.

- Holy crap.
- Simon...

can I ask you something?

Uh... sure.

About us.

Us?

Yeah, you know.

You and me... us.

You seriously have no idea
where I'm going with this.

Honestly, I'm... I'm a
little confused right now.

But, um... in a good way.

Simon...

when are you gonna ask
me to be your girlfriend?

Uh...

Clary...

Excuse me? Clary?

Um...

Uh, yeah, just, uh...

I... I forgot something. I forgot, I...

Was it my name? Because it's Maureen.

No. No. It's, uh...

I... I forgot to turn
the oven off at my mom's.

Simon, you don't even cook.

Right, which is exactly
why I probably left it on.

So I should... I should fix that, right?

- I'm not interested in just hooking up.
- Maureen...

So if you're still stuck on Clary, then...

Clary's seeing someone else.

Look...

You're more than just a hookup. I promise.

I promise.

Okay? It's just that I've...

All right, cards are on my
desk. It shouldn't take long.

- All right.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

It'll be easier to avoid unnecessary
attention if I do this alone.

We'll wait here.

It sounded boring anyway.

Hey.

Stop right where you
are. Don't touch anything.

Detective Garroway, I need
your badge and your gun.

Who's this?

His name is Fisk. Internal affairs.

My hands are tied. You're
gonna have to cooperate.

Have ballistics run it through
the system, see what pops up.

You're coming with me.

Let's go.

I've got a bad feeling about this.

What is taking him so long?

I know a way we could find out.

Just go in and see for ourselves.

Luke told us to stay put, so
that's what we're gonna do.

That's probably him now.

- I doubt it.
- _

Just so I'm clear, he did mention

something about trying
to avoid attention, right?

From the looks of it,
he's doing a terrible job.

Circle members?

No, mundanes. Internal affairs officers.

You can tell all that
just by looking at them?

I can tell all that by
reading their badges.

Better than binoculars.

- Luke had his chance.
- Yeah.

- Let's go.
- Okay.

Alec?

Alec!

Is everything okay?

Better than ever.

Is there something you want to talk about?

No. All good.

Have you seen Alec?

- Um, no. Why?
- He's supposed to fill out

the incident reports for all
the recent demonic activity.

I can do it.

I know you can, but the Clave...

Will be fine getting it from me.

Of course they will.

I'll let your mother know
that you're gonna handle this.

I'm sure she'll be very glad to hear it.

Thanks.

Look familiar?

Maybe. I'd have to ask my lawyer.

That's the way you want it?

One lawyer, coming up.

You sit tight.

You want a coffee or anything?

Garroway.

Coffee?

No. No, I'm good.

Suit yourself.

Camera.

Luke, what is going on?

I think I'm about to be the prime
suspect in a murder investigation.

- What do we do?
- Get the cards.

In my desk, bottom drawer.

- All right.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

You can't glamour yourselves.

I'm not the only Downworlder on the force,

and we don't know who's
working for Valentine.

If anybody spots you...

We'd be leading them
right to the Mortal Cup.

Exactly. Better to assume
that everybody has the Sight

than gamble that they don't.

- Luke...
- I can handle myself.

Hey, what happened to the camera?

I've asked the same thing for years.

Slept at Magnus' place?

Didn't do much sleeping.

I was helping treat
Luke's wounds. That's all.

Really?

What?

Nothing. I believe you.

Okay, Magnus made cocktails. I'm
telling you, nothing else happened.

When you're ready to talk about

whatever you need to talk about,

I'm here.

Hey, I talk to you.

About everything but your personal life.

You know, and it's kind of not fair,

because I talk to you
about mine all the time.

For example, I broke up with Meliorn.

Really? Turning over a new leaf?

He was a bit much.

Apparently, I need someone
more Shadowhunter-ish.

Izzy, I realize that you're trying

to take some of the family heat,

and I appreciate it,

but you can't change who you are.

Really?

- And you can?
- I know who I am.

I'm a guy who's about to be disowned

when Dad finds out that Jace and Clary

are still out doing God knows what.

I think Dad's used to that by now.

This is Jace you're talking about.

He said he'd be an hour. It's been three.

You don't think he and Clary are...

At a time like this? Not possible.

Really? In here?

- Why not?
- There's got to be a better place.

- No, here's good.
- Ow!

All right.

You need help with that?

I can deglamourize myself, Jace.

- It's "deglamour."
- Whatever.

- The cards?
- Right.

How exactly are we gonna get them?

I doubt we can make it out of this
closet without drawing attention,

let alone Luke's desk and
you are covered in runes.

Don't worry. I've got a plan.

- A good plan this time?
- 90%.

Just follow my lead.

Oh, and I apologize.

Apologize for what?

The other 10%.

You son of a bitch!

Oh!

Stop following me!

Hey, what happened to being discreet?

- Hmm?
- Wait, what did you say?

- You cheated on me?
- I... Huh?

I did not. Whoa.

You will never see me at
your crappy apartment again.

That girl means nothing to me. Nothing.

Is that the boyfriend
that I heard so much about?

- Nope, not anymore.
- Hi.

I'm dumping him.

Where is all of Luke's stuff?

IA took everything.
What are you looking for?

I, uh... I lost a house key

and Luke normally keeps
a spare in his desk,

so is there any way I can get it?

Uh, not till he's cleared.

Cleared? Of... of what?

Oh, don't worry about
it. We'll get it handled.

Oh.

Clary, I'm sorry.

I apologize. I just want you to
know it only happened, like...

two or... It just
happened a couple of times

- and I am totally...
- Shut up.

Babe, come on.

Listen, you don't get
to call her "babe," okay?

In fact, you don't get to call her at all.

Clary's done with you. You got it?

- Take him out.
- I have rights.

Perhaps it's for the best?

Oh, matching tattoos.
That's... Big red flag.

Oh. This... It's nothing.

Don't worry about it. I get it.

You always fall for the bad boys, right?

Oh, is that just me?

Uh, right, right. Uh...

I really need that key.

I'm sorry, Clary, but IA
has all of Luke's things

in the evidence vault upstairs.

Oh.

Maybe I can help you find the one you lost.

Did you check your bag?

Oh, my God!

You're totally right.

Thank you so much.

Bye.

I'm going to lunch. This job
is gonna be the death of me.

_

_

French press.

And a garlic bagel.

Extra garlic.

Oh, uh... um...

I'm doing research for a graphic
novel I'm writing about vampires.

I don't think I'm actually becoming
one, 'cause that would be crazy.

Where's what's-her-face?
Latte-and-no-whip-cream girl?

Clary, uh...

I don't know. She's
not... answering my texts.

Can't imagine why.

You all right?

Yeah, it's just, uh... Just
think I need some caffeine.

Okay.

You might want to let
that brew... Never mind.

Okay.

_

Not again.

Can I do something for you?

I need a list of everything seized

from Detective Garroway's desk.

And I need a slice of pizza.

The list. Now. Full inventory.

Bring it up with my office.

I'm sorry I couldn't be
more helpful, but, uh, I...

I'm hungry.

Apparently, I'm not the only one.

She must smell a rat. An IA rat.

You know what? I'm gonna
bring Alec with me next time.

I don't think he's ever
slapped me in the face.

I'm sorry, I panicked.

- Someone call for backup?
- Yeah. What took you guys so long?

Funny, I was gonna ask you the same thing.

It's complicated.

- We found the Cup.
- The Cup?

Yeah, but then we lost it.

We have to sneak back in
the precinct to get it.

This is a disaster.

Hey, demon pox is a disaster.
This is an inconvenience.

We just need a plan. That's all.

- What about a glamour?
- We tried that.

Anyone working with Valentine
will see right through it.

Can we ask Magnus Bane to portal us inside?

- No.
- That'd be awkward.

Magnus can only portal us to
places he's been to before.

Not again. Just give me a second.

Simon, this is really not a good time.

Clary, where are you? This is an emergency.

Simon, are you okay?

I'm not sure. I haven't
been kidnapped yet today.

Simon, seriously, what's going on?

I think I'm sick. Like, really sick.

Simon, remember that time you
thought you had the bird flu?

Okay, just stay off the
Internet and you'll be fine.

Yeah, I know. But this time it's different.

- Hey...
- This time I'm really...

Oh, my God. She hung up on me.

Simon's little problem can
wait. I've got a great plan.

Oh, there's a first.

Just follow my lead.

Oh, and don't worry, in my
plan, no one gets slapped.

Thanks, Jerry. I appreciate it.

We're done for today.

But don't go too far.
You'll be hearing from me.

I wouldn't dream of it.

Listen, Garroway, do you think I'm
trying to be a pain in your ass?

Well, the thought had occurred to me.

Dude, we've got your car
wrapped around a street light,

drenched in blood, carrying a GPS

that puts you at the scene of the crime.

I'm not a bad guy. I'm just not stupid.

Vargas was a good cop.

She was my friend.

One of the few.

Your friends seem to have
a habit of turning up dead.

I can't even imagine what
your Facebook page looks like.

You think I killed her?

No.

In fact, I think I'm your alibi.

Well, I'd appreciate that.

Don't thank me just yet.

I still haven't figured out your deal.

Even a blind guy can tell
something weird is going on.

You want to do right by Vargas?

Help me out here.

You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

Try me.

Fisk.

Think about it.

Yeah.

I checked her wrist.
There's no defensive wounds.

Another demonic murder?

I don't think so. Similar MO,

but she wasn't drained of blood.

The ME have a time of death?

We're waiting on forensics,

but early guess is she's
been dead a couple of hours.

A couple hours?

No way. I just talked to
the captain 45 minutes ago.

You guys are killing me.

Check the body for venom.

If it's a demon, I need to know
exactly what I'm looking for.

Okay.

Simon...

can we have a talk?

"We"?

You, me and your sister.

Do I have a choice?

Well, I've already ducked
out of the office early, so...

no.

Okay.

I stayed out last night at Maureen's. I...

I should have called. It slipped my mind.

So, what are you gonna do? Ground me?

Maureen called us this
morning and she was very upset.

Actually, Maureen called me...

and she said that you were
spazzing out, like more than normal.

She said... She did what?

Well, I just tried to say that's
kind of how you are with girls,

but, uh, she was very upset, so...

- I told Mom.
- You did what?

Simon, Maureen thinks that...
that you might be on drugs.

And listen, if I thought
it was just marijuana

I wouldn't be so worried, but, honey...

you look like you're dying.

Would dying get me out
of this conversation?

I know that I'm not usually
the sentimental one here, but...

- we're here for you.
- It's all right.

You can tell us, whatever it is.

Okay, okay, um...

I think I have a disease.

- A disease?
- Like, a bad one.

Do you have an STD?

Okay, let's let him finish talking.

Look, Simon, it's really
not as bad as you think.

These things happen, all right?

When I was in law school, I experimented...

We're really off track here. I think
we really need to focus on Simon.

Rebecca, it's 2016, all right?

- Mom, I'm more than happy...
- I had a life.

Hey, hey, guys...

- I'm still right here.
- Do not make this about you.

I'm still right here.

Excuse me?

Shut up!

Simon?

So, I was promised a great plan.

We'll head up towards the vault.

Alec and Izzy are handling the rest.

All we have to do is
wait for their signal...

...and grab the Cup.

He's on our side.

You sure?

Isn't that the line he
used when he kidnapped you?

Good point.

What now? We're supposed
to climb the elevator shaft

and waltz in the vault unnoticed?

Now, why didn't I think of that?

Wait, you're kidding, right?

- Remember the binoculars?
- Yeah.

This one's a Nyx rune.
It's like night vision.

You can copy mine.

- You got it?
- Yeah.

Why do I need night vision?

You'll see.

Um...

Feel free to ask for help.

I, um... I think I can take it from here.

Where's the fun in that?

Okay, I'm guessing you're the distraction?

Nope.

I've decided to grow up, remember?

No more distracting for me.

Besides, I don't think I'm her type.

Oh, crap.

- Don't worry, it's good practice.
- Huh?

You know, for asking out Magnus.

What are you... what are you doing?

Unbuttoning your shirt.
What's it look like I'm doing?

- Izzy, this is not really my department.
- Come on.

You do this sort of stuff all the time.

- You do, I don't.
- It's easy.

Come on.

Hey.

Can I help you?

Yeah, um...

You come here often?

I work here. What can I help you with?

Right, um...

Right, right, right, yeah, um...

Yeah, I'm just... I'm
looking for some information.

Oh, look... Oh, wow.

I'm so sorry.

Let me just get that.

That's not... I'm so sorry.

That's such a mess. Let me clean that up.

- Uh, it's not working. Okay.
- Here, let me.

No, I got it. I got it. Just go. Go.

- You sure?
- Go.

Thank you so much.

I think you messed something up.

Really?

No, I didn't.

Then why isn't it working?

It is.

That's the signal.

Whoa.

Right?

Going up.

What's going on?

Some sort of power surge.
Whole building's fried.

No lights, no camera, no nothing.

Get anything on our killer?

Yeah, you were right.

Huge amounts of demon
venom in Vargas' blood.

- It's a shapeshifter.
- All right.

I'm going after it. Alert the pack.

Anyone sees Vargas, kill her.

You were trapped in the precinct all day.

If that demon wanted you dead,
it certainly had the opportunity.

It's not after me. It's after Clary.

Otherwise, I wouldn't
be asking for your help.

You're pack leader now.
You don't need to ask.

Thanks, bud.

What is all this crap?

Lunch receipts?

You're getting pretty good with your stele.

Well, at least we know
he's not a Downworlder.

Lucky for us.

Give me a heads up next
time you're gonna do that.

In here.

This will take all day.

Or you could just do that.

That looks exactly like the Mortal Cup.

This is it. It has to be.

What's wrong?

I'm not sure. I...

You're not sure what's wrong

or you're not sure where
your mom hid the Cup?

- Did you get it?
- Theoretically.

- Theoretically?
- Yeah.

I found the card. I just have to figure out

how I reached into my
notebook before. It's...

- It's not an exact science.
- Can't you just pull the Cup out?

I can, theoretically. I just...

It's not as easy as it looks, Alec.

Listen, you two can discuss theories

as much as you want when we
get back to the Institute.

But right now, considering we just stole

from the cops, I suggest we get home.

Guys...

I think the mundanes might
be the least of our worries.

Well, at least we know
the demon necklace works.

Never a dull day. Let's go.

Guys, slow down.

Oh, I am so sorry.

Grandma.

What the hell?

Language. Not in front of Grandma.

How did it find us?

I don't know...

- but she brought friends.
- How can you tell?

It's like seeing through a glamour.

You just got to pay
attention to the details.

But I can't see anything.

Behind us.

I... I still can't see them.

Okay, there's too many people.

I don't say this often,
but I agree with Clary.

- We gotta get out of here.
- Hey, this way!

What's the Unlock rune again?

Open sesame.

Go.

Hey, what are you doing?

Holding them off. Take
Clary back to the Institute.

No, if you're staying, I'm
staying. We fight together.

Don't be stupid. If the demons
get the Cup, we're dead anyways.

- I'm not leaving anyone behind.
- You don't have a choice.

I know you guys are having a moment,
okay? But we really have to go.

Don't worry. It's not
like this is the first time

Alec has saved your life.

I doubt it'd be the last.

Go.

- Hello.
- Clary?

- I need you...
- You've reached Clary's phone.

I'm not here, but you know the deal.

Leave one at the beep.

Um, Clary...

I need to talk to you.

I think I need to talk to you more

than I've ever needed to
talk to you in my life.

I know...

I know you're busy saving your mom, but...

I think I'm becoming a vampire.

Darling, you don't know the half of it.

Blood is stronger than will.

Shut up.

Stronger than desire.

Shut up!

Even stronger than love.

Come to me.

What you really want is...

Hold on.

- I'm sorry, Jace.
- It's okay. We can take a breather.

No, it's not that. I, um...

I'll scout ahead.

I'm sorry for all the
trouble I've put you through.

You don't have to apologize to me, Clary.

Unfortunately, you can't stop me.

Well, yeah, I'm starting to see that.

Just... I've been so focused
on trying to find my mom,

I don't think I realized how
much you've actually done for me.

So, thank you.

Clary, I'm a Shadowhunter.

It's kinda my job.

You... Your job?

Yeah.

Oh, you'd do this for anybody?

Maybe not Simon.

Funny, I think he'd say
the same thing about you.

You know, you're not too bad yourself.

- Me?
- Yeah.

You kicked some pretty serious
ass back at the police station.

At least, you got my ass kicked.

Thanks... I think.

Guys? It's pulsing.

Again?

Getting close. Let's spread out.

Izzy, where is it?

I don't know.

It's like they're right
here, but I don't see them.

- Are you hurt?
- I'll live.

What are those things?

Shax demons.

They're like the bloodhounds
of the Shadow World.

- They've been tracking us.
- So what do we do?

The Institute's only a
couple of blocks from here.

We can't lose them, but they won't

be able to track us if we split up.

- But, I don't... I don't...
- Clary, you'll be fine.

Izzy and I will draw them away.

No matter what happens, just keep running.

They're coming.

- Jace, I...
- Run, Clary!

Crap!

Get back!

I said, get back!

Simon?

You still alive in there?

Hey, I ordered in Rizzo's.

Are you okay?

I've never heard him this
quiet around pasta before.

- Go.
- Yeah? Okay.

All right, Simon, I'm coming in.

Simon?

Oh, my God.

Jace!

Jace?

Clary.

Hey.

- Oh, you're hurt!
- I'll be all right.

- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm...

I'm fine. Barely, but...

- What happened?
- One of the Shax demons cornered me.

But I got the Cup.

I don't know, my instincts just
kicked in and I... I could do it.

Maybe you're right. Maybe I'll
be a Shadowhunter after all.

Clary, you're amazing. I
always knew you could do it.

Now give me the Cup and let's go.

- Give you the Cup?
- Yes.

Only until we get back to the Institute.

It's the only way I can keep you safe.

I'll die before I let
anything happen to you.

Yeah, you're totally right.

Clary?

Jace... No! Oh, my God! Jace!

- Clary!
- Get back!

How do I know you're Luke?

I got you spray paint for your birthday.

- What happened?
- Uh, demons.

Long story. Um...

- Where'd you come from?
- Jail.

I ran into Alec.

Said you might be down here.
Thought you might need some help.

Apparently not. Looks
like she took care of it.

Shouldn't we get going or something?

More demons could be coming, right?

Oh, don't worry about it.

I got the pack on the lookout.

If there's any other demons,
we'll take care of them.

Look at you, leader of the pack.

Well, you know, it has its perks.

Shall we?

Yeah. Right.

These tunnels are
swarming with Shax demons.

If she's down there, it's only a
matter of time before they find her.

We need to make sure that doesn't happen.

All right, listen up. I want this
entire institute on high alert.

I don't care what anybody else
says, I'll take full responsibility.

Right now, Clary is the
only thing that matters.

Jace!

Clary.

I did it. I got the Cup.

I don't care about the Cup.

When I came out of the tunnels,
I didn't see you. I was worried

- something might have happened...
- There was a demon.

Shapeshifter. It looked just like you.

- You all right?
- Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

And the demon?

I sent him straight back to hell.

How'd you know it wasn't me?

- I just knew.
- Really?

Kind of a risk, wasn't it?

Well, this may come as a surprise,

but I actually do listen to
some of the things you tell me.

You just have to pay
attention to the details.

Yeah, well, I told you the first
time we met, you have the Sight.

You're a Shadowhunter,
just like the rest of us.

Hello?

Anybody home?

You don't have a doorbell,
so I... I let myself in.

Raphael?

Okay, okay. Oh, my God.

All right, I know someone's here somewhere!

Please!

I think I'm sick.

I need someone to tell me what's
going on, because it's ruining my life!

Am I becoming a vampire?

Poor darling boy.

I was wondering when you'd come back.

You...

You're not mad?

On the contrary, I've been expecting you.

You see... it's just my blood
running through your veins.

It can have some curious effects.

But I assure you, they're all harmless.

In time, they'll fade and
you'll return to normal.
