Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 17 - A Dark Reflection - full transcript

Clary and the team search for the final Mortal Instrument, whilst Isabelle fears Max is growing up too fast. Maia struggles with her feelings for Simon.

My name is Clary and
I'm a Shadowhunter,

born to protect
mankind from demons.

A never-ending
battle against evil,

but I know who I can count on.

Simon, my oldest friend.
A vampire.

Magnus, a warlock from Brooklyn.

Luke, a werewolf pack leader
and New York City cop,

and Jace, Izzy and Alec,

three of the bravest
Shadowhunters alive.

Alone, we're strong.

Together, we are unstoppable.



Previously, on Shadowhunters...

- It worked!
- Just wait a second, OK?

Hello... father.

Valentine used to take me to
this cabin when I was a kid.

We're too late.

These journals are all
that's left of my childhood.

Jace, this was 10 years ago.

Jonathan died in a fire
when he was an infant.

He's still alive.



No... no... no!

Hey, hey, hey!

Hey! It's OK. Wake up. Wake up.

It was just a bad dream.



Jace...

What... what are you doing here?

I, uh, heard you screaming.

- Are you all right?
- Yeah.

I, uh...

I was back at Lake Lyn.

Underwater. Drowning...

Well, you're all right now.

You know, everything
that happened

back at the lake, I...

I can't get it out of my head.

It's not exactly top on
my vacation list, either.

My brother's alive.

Somewhere out there,

Jonathan... exists.

I know. It's a lot to process.

He was a child.

With demon blood.
Don't forget that.

And no one but Valentine

to teach him the difference
between right and wrong.

If he's out there,

I want to find him.

- We will.
- How?

We don't even know
where to start.

Wait... that's not true.

Do you remember this?

Yeah.

My mom's keepsakes from
when he was a baby.

I mean, we thought they
were yours but they're...

Jonathan's.

We can use what's
inside to track him.

Looks like somebody
beat us to it.

Well done, Jonathan.

You said my mother
didn't care about me.

But she kept these things...

It was foolish sentimentality.

Nothing more. Your
mother feared you.

She wanted you dead.

My sister's different.

Yes. She is.

I'm glad you had a
chance to meet Clarissa,

spend some time with her.

So you're... you're acting
like I'll never see her again.

Of course you will.

You have my word.

One day we will all be together.

As a family. But right now...

Right now, I need
you to trust me.

- Trust you.
- Mhm.

It goes both ways.

I found this

under your pillow.

Force of habit. That's all.

Is it? I'm a wanted man.

I must always be prepared.

Soon, I will no longer be
regarded as the enemy.

I will be seen as a hero.

And so will you.

Isn't that what you want?

Yes. Yes, it is.

Good.

We are going to achieve great
things together, Jonathan.

♪ We're coming ♪



♪ After you ♪

♪ This is the hunt ♪



♪ This is the hunt ♪

The Clave is very impressed
with your progress.

They think you're ready
for your first mission.

What do you think?

I've been ready since
the day I got here.

Well then, you better get
your butt over to training.

You know how much our
sister hates tardiness.

Any sign of Jonathan?

No. We tracked the box itself,

But... it was a dead end.

So Valentine sent Duncan to
steal a pair of baby booties?

Someone did. Someone who wanted

to circumvent us from
tracking Jonathan.

And now we have no leads
on either of them.

We've got nothing.

Actually, we have
less than nothing.

There's something
you should know.

The Clave doesn't
have the Soul Sword.

They never did.

So the Clave has been
lying this entire time?

Wouldn't be the first time.

The Clave is trying to
prevent an uprising.

If the Downworld finds out that
we don't have the Soul Sword,

there would be total chaos.

But the sword's
been deactivated.

It can't be used
on Downworlders.

Not in the way Valentine
used it before.

But it's still a
Mortal Instrument.

If you combine it with the
other two Mortal Instruments

the cup and the mirror

he could use it to raise
the Angel Raziel.

I thought that was just legend.

Well, the legends are true.

The Angel will grant
him one wish.

Anything he wants.

The end of the Downworld
as we know it.

How's chasing pigeons gonna
help me with my training?

You're not chasing them.
You're tracking them.

This lesson is all about focus.

Now, activate your
tracking rune.

Now, track this egg back
to the bird who laid it.

You need to concentrate.

I'm already an expert tracker.

I thought the same thing
when I was your age...

until I hit a nest
full of Kuri demons.

If it wasn't for Alec,

I wouldn't be standing here.

But you only got better
by being in the field.

Now... it's my turn.

What are you talking about?

The Clave approved me
for my first mission.

That's not happening.

Find the bird, Max.

That's the assignment.

Where are you going?

You're not sending our little
brother out into the field.

You know better than
anyone how good Max is.

His simulation scores
are off the charts.

That's a simulation. I'm
talking about the real word.

Max has had his rune ceremony.

It's standard to get
orders after that.

Just like we did when
we were his age.

It was different back then. We
weren't fighting Valentine.

- Izzy...
- You weren't there that night

with Kaelie. He came
this close to dying.

Max is a soldier.

It's time we start
treating him like one.

Come on. Fix it already.

You're stalling, Cleophas.

Its destructive powers
have been neutralized.

- Fix it.
- I cannot.

You are an Iron Sister.

And supposedly, one of the best
blade smiths in the Citadel.

Surely you're more than capable.

Or maybe you're just
being stubborn.

Keep pumping me with
your mind control serum.

It cannot fix this sword
and neither can I.

Just inject her, father.

Your daughter did what
no one has done before.

I told you Clary was special.

You leave Clary out of this.

She's smarter than
you'll ever be.

She knows what kind of
monster Valentine is.

Don't let the fact that he's
your father sway you into...

Says the woman

who turned her back
on her own brother.

The Downworld can
still be destroyed.

It just takes a
different approach.

One involving a simple wish.

It's not possible.

No one has been able to
raise the Angel Raziel.

Well... it won't
be the first time

I've achieved the impossible.

Hello.

How can I help you today?

It's a fabulous
shop you have here.

Why thank you.

It's been my life's work.

Absolutely fascinating.

I'm Sebastian Verlac.

Pleasure to meet you.

Elliot Nourse.

Anything in particular
I can help you find?

Uh... yes, as a
matter of fact...

there is.

Hey! What are you doing?

Tell me where the
Mortal Mirror is!



Jonathan!

Stop.

The warlock attacked me.

I had to protect myself.

Of course.

What, you're afraid of me?

I just saved you.

You owe me.

Lost track of time?

I missed dinner, didn't I?

Only by a few hours.

I'm... I'm so sorry. Really.

I just... it's been
so crazy here.

I understand.

I can't believe I forgot.

It's OK, Alexander.

If we can't go to the Cape,

I'll bring the Cape to us.

Lobster tails and champagne

to toast to a successful
Downworld meeting.

Mm.

- It went well?
- Relatively.

But the Downworlders barely
trust the Clave to begin with.

And the Seelie Queen
went on and on

about the Clave being nothing
but a bunch of liars.

That's harsh.

But Luke and I assured them

that now that you are the
Head of this Institute,

and implementing a policy
of complete transparency,

change was on the way.

That's good to hear.

It is, isn't it? Oh!

Drawn butter?

Sure.

♪ Even as we're falling apart ♪



OK, so a group of
Downworlders get together

and a fight doesn't break out?

I don't know. Sounds
like a bust to me.

Seelie Queen's spoiling for
a fight with the Clave.

Well, it's kind of
inevitable, isn't it?

Not if I can help it.

I gotta go.

- Hey, Luke.
- Hey!

I'm heading down to the station,

but if, uh... you
want to talk...

No, I'm all good man. I'm
actually here to see Maia.

Hm!

- Hey!
- Hey, what's up?

How do you feel about boats?

Boats? I can't say I think
too much about 'em.

Well, I reserved us a paddle
boat at Prospect Park.

I know you like marine biology,

so I figured you
might like this.

Also, I know it's not the ocean,

but believe me, there's some
weird stuff living down there.

That's really sweet
of you, but, um...

I can't. I'm busy.

I didn't give you a date yet.

Right...

but I'm working a lot
of doubles this week.

And I've got all this
reading for class.

I just can't. It's not
a good time right now.

Not a good time to go boating

or not a good time to
go on a date with me?

I mean... I had a lot fun
at your family dinner

but... just as friends.

Oh! No! Yeah. Yeah, I'm sorry.

I totally read that situation wrong.
What else is new.

Is this about Clary?

Because you know that...
that's past tense.

It's not Clary.

And I like you. I like
spending time with you.

But... just as friends.

Right... friends.

Where is the mirror?

I don't care what you do.

I promised Jocelyn.

Loyalty.

An admirable trait.

Until it gets you killed.

She was clever, my wife.

She was up to all
sorts of things.

Hiding the cup, the mirror...

our daughter.

Let's take him with us.

We've got other methods
to make him talk.

What are you doing? What...
what is he doing?

Hey! Stop this!

Stop him!

Do not let him die!
Don't let him die!

JONATHAN, DO NOT LET HIM DIE!

Check his arm.

The mark's gone.

Damn.

Go back to the Institute.

Dig into the archives.

Find out what happened
to that mark.

Now.

Dot, are you OK?

Give us a minute.

I didn't know where else to go.

I didn't know who to trust.
So I came straight here.

- OK. What's wrong?
- Have you heard from Elliot?

Elliot Nourse?

No, not since he quit mom's
shop and opened his own.

Dot, what is it?

I think something
terrible's happened to him,

and I'm worried I might be next.

After Elliot opened his
own shop we lost touch.

But when I was little,

Elliot was one of my
mom's best friends.

He introduced me to Jocelyn.

And now you're concerned
he's in trouble.

The mark on Dot's arm is
part of a protection spell.

It's a sigil. It only
transfers to another warlock

if something terrible
has happened.

Whatever he's guarding
must be pretty important.

It's the Mortal Mirror.

Jocelyn had it? I
know it's crazy.

The mirror and the cup.

I guess my mom knew
Elliot would do anything

to keep it safe. As a warlock,

he could protect it better
than anyone, right?

So she entrusted him
with its location.

And Elliot entrusted it to me.

So you know the current
location of the Mortal Mirror?

Sort of.

These lines coordinate

to specific Ley
lines in the city.

I can figure it out, but
it'll take some time.

We have maps of all the Ley lines.
We can help you.

And we can protect you from
Jonathan and Valentine.

With those marks on your wrist,

it's only a matter of time
before they come after you.

Jace and I will go
to Elliot's shop.

See what happened.
You'll be safe here.

Be careful.

Oh, Elliot...

You see these marks?

A demon was here.

He was tortured.

But this isn't murder.
He killed himself.

What?

How can you tell?

The blood from his eyes,
I've seen it before.

It's a warlock incantation.

It's basically their version
of a cyanide capsule.

I'm sorry.

Hi.

- Hey.
- Sebastian?

What are you doing here?

I, uh... I saw the alert
at the Institute.

Is everything under control?

We're still not 100 percent
sure what happened.

There was a demon presence here,

but something doesn't add up.

Oh my God.

It's Jonathan.

How do you know that?

The flowers...

My mom shared a memory from
when Jonathan was a baby.

He'd done the exact same thing.

And that Grey demon ichor,
that's how Valentine described

the aftermath of Jonathan's
childhood kills.

Jonathan was here.

Sorry, who's, uh...
who's Jonathan?

My brother.

He must be after
the Mortal Mirror.

If he comes after it again, I'm
gonna have to deal with him.

What does that mean?

It means I'm gonna do
anything in my power

to protect the mirror.

- You'll kill him?
- If that's what it takes.

- Yeah.
- You don't even know

if Jonathan's doing
this on his own.

He could be under
Valentine's influence.

Yeah, Clary's got a point.

I mean, what if Valentine's
forcing him to do his bidding?

Yeah. OK, look.

I know exactly what it's like
to be manipulated by Valentine.

Probably better than anyone.

You know, Clary, you
read those journals.

Jonathan Morgenstern is
a demon-blooded monster

who is responsible for the
death of your friend.

An innocent warlock.

Remember what Valentine
made you do.

I don't have demon blood.

Just think about it, Jace.

Valentine has
manipulated us both.

What if Jonathan is
just his latest victim?

We don't have any facts.

And until we do, no one
is getting killed.

Yeah, I suppose the, uh...

the priority right now should
be finding that mirror.

Ha!

Surrender to the
Authority of the Clave.

You'll never take me
alive, Shadowhunter scum.

- Huh?
- Dracula's time is nigh.

Nosferatu will rise again, man!

OK. Thank you, Simon.

Too much? Also, ah! I think

I pulled something.
This kid is super fast.

Hey! What did I say
about being quicker

with your rune activation?

And you're dropping
your shoulder.

I'll do better.

Catching Simon is easy.

You make mistakes like this

out in the field
and you're dead.

Well, catching Simon
is not that easy.

And can we have a second?
Is that cool?

Izzy, we've been
at this for hours.

I think it's time
we take a break.

Yeah, Max is fine. OK?

It's not Max I'm worried about.

Who wants chow mein
and fortune cookies?

- I do!
- Yes!

Any luck?

I'm getting closer to
narrowing down the location.

You understand that once
you retrieve the mirror,

it becomes property
of the Clave?

You think I want anything
to do with this?

The only thing I care about
is stopping Valentine.

No, I... I didn't mean to...

I'm sorry, but I've lost
whatever faith in the Clave

I had left. So when I
retrieve the mirror,

it becomes property
of Clary Fairchild.

She's the only one that I trust.

She can do what she
wants with it.

Fair enough.

We've had too many security
breaches recently.

So I'm limiting your
escort to Jace and Clary.

You'll be safer that way.

Thanks.

It's Jonathan. My brother.

He's the one who
came after Elliot.

He's after the mirror.

Sebastian.

Thanks, but we're good here.

If I can be of any assistance,
I'd be happy to help.

Thank you.

But we've got it covered.

Sure.

I've never seen someone
with so much energy

after Valentine's injections.

I'm an Iron Sister.
My blood is purified.

His chemicals can only
do so much to me.

Amazing. My mom used to tell me
stories about the Iron Sisters.

How brave and
powerful they were.

We learn many things
at the Citadel.

Most importantly...

virtue comes at a price.



- What are you doing?
- I took the rooftops.

It's faster.

Clary knows I was there.

Which you? Jonathan
or Sebastian?

Jonathan.

They have a warlock.

She has the sigil.

What warlock?

Her name is Dot.

Jace is trying to sabotage me.

He's trying to...

make Clary hate me.
But I swear to you,

I will end him before
I let that happen.

Listen. Once we have the mirror,

none of this will matter.

I can't have Clary hate me.

Not after everything
I've been through.

Clary doesn't care about you.

Yes, she does.

No, Jonathan. She only cares

about an English Shadowhunter
named Sebastian Verlac.

When she realizes
the truth about you

- she will only despise you.
- No.

You are the one
that she despises.

I am her brother! She loves me.

OK, Jonathan.

You're right. I'm sorry.

Go back to Clary.
Find the mirror.

But remember, until
that's accomplished...

no can know who you really are.

So you're telling me your
sister's still alive?

I don't understand what this
has to do with the Downworld.

Cleophas sent me
this fire message.

It appears that Valentine's
holding her captive.

Magnus, she said he still
has the Soul Sword.

- That's impossible.
- Look, I thought the same thing,

but the Clave lied.

I have to tell Alexander.

Wait.

Alec is Head of the Institute.

He might already know.

No.

I just saw him.

He would've told me if he knew.

He would never keep something
this important from me.

Yeah,

definitely think that's nuts,

that the Clave has little
kids fight demons.

But... you guys are
Shadowhunters, right?

It's not anything new.

I'm still worried. You know,
he's my little brother.

I get it. But Izzy,

when it's all said and done,

isn't this what Max
was born to do?

Like you?

Hey! Check out my
fortune cookie.

You will accomplish
impossible feats.

Yes!

See? I told you.

How 'bout we call it a day?

But it's still early!

Unless Simon's too tired.

What?! No way!

I was just getting started.

Let's get back to
work, young Padawan.

What?

Don't tell me you don't
know what a Jedi is.

Um...

Izzy, what type of
trainer are you?

This is important stuff, man!
All right,

last one back to the boat basin
is an Imperial Gonk droid.

And you don't wanna be that guy!

Hey...

Hey.

Are all vampires this weird?

Definitely not.

Come on.

I don't think we've
actually met.

I'm Isabelle Lightwood.

Are you taking her
on a boat ride?

What? No. No!

No, of course not. Izzy
and I are friends.

We're helping her brother Max
train, and then we stopped

to get a bite to eat...
Stop talking.

That's it.

I will see you later.

Yeah. See you.

- What was that?
- What?

That.

In there.

You and Maia.

There is no me and Maia.

OK, Simon, you can't
possibly be that clueless.

OK? She likes you.

It's obvious. She
doesn't like me.

When a girl likes you
and you ask her out,

most of the time she
doesn't say no.

She didn't tell you why?

No. She just told me she
had a lot going on.

That's your problem.
There's obviously

something more that
she's not telling you.

After the whole Seelie
Court business,

I'm done chasing girls who
only want to be my friend.

I didn't take you for a quitter.

Easy for you to say. When was the
last time you got shot down?

You'd be surprised.

Look, I'm just gonna stick
to things I'm good at.

Like... getting my ass
kicked by a 12 year old.

So you've narrowed it down
to these three locations.

Yes. Here. Here and here.

Wait a minute...

that's the park we used to
go to when I was little.

Mom and I used to go
there when I was a kid.

She'd pack a picnic, watch
me sketch for hours.

It was our place.

She hid it somewhere
I'd remember...

just in case.

It's gotta be there.

Uh, hi.

Hey, Sebastian.

Um... I'm sorry, I'm just
heading out on a mission.

Oh, sure. Yeah.

I actually... I
just wanted to...

make sure you were OK.

I'm fine.

Look, I saw how upset
you were today.

I'm really sorry
about your friend.

I keep losing the people
that I care about.

One after the other. It...
it has to stop.

And you're worried that, um...

now Jonathan's back, that it...

that it's not going to.

I don't know.

I mean, Jace thinks that
my brother's a lost cause.

So...

What do you think?

I mean, I understand
he has demon blood,

I know what he's capable of,

but...

but he's my brother.

- God, that's stupid, right?
- Oh, no. No!

God, it's not stupid at all!
And if there's any

humanity left in him,

shouldn't we at least
try to save him?

I think so.



Sebastian...

Oh, I'm sorry.

That was stupid.

- It's... it's just, I'm not...
- No, no, look, I... I get it.

I just want you to
know that I will...

I'll always be there
for you, Clary.

Whatever you need.



Please don't say you've been
waiting for me all this time.

No.

Just wanted to see you.

Is everything OK?

I thought so.

But... now I'm not so sure.

What's going on?

You tell me, Alexander.

From the day I met you,

the one thing I knew I could
count on from you was honesty.

Absolute, total... honesty.

I can explain.

You knew about the sword?

I just found out. I swear.

When?

When did you know?

Tonight?

When I talked about trust.

Did you know then?

I did.

OK.

Look, I was worried that if
the Downworld found out,

there'd be widespread panic.

It could have led
to a rebellion.

And you didn't trust
me to stay quiet?

I didn't say that. I
didn't want to ask you

to have to keep a secret
from your own people.

That wouldn't be fair to you.

Oh.

You're just like the Clave...

Making promises you
never intend to keep.

- Oh! Transparency?
- Magnus!

Magnus, let's not
make this personal.

How can I not make it personal?

Valentine wants me dead.

He wants all of us dead.

I know.

And after I bared
my heart and soul.

I told you things I've
never told anyone.

You looked me straight
in the eye and lied.

Magnus, I didn't...

I guess it runs in the family.

Hey!

That's not fair. Magnus!

Luke's not here.

And they say Shadowhunters
are unfriendly.

I'm not here to talk to Luke.
May I?

So what does the Clave want now?

Nothing. This is about Simon.

What about him?

Want to know if you're
really not interested in him

or you're just...
playing hard to get.

OK, I'm not playing anything.

And I'm sorry, how is this
any of your business?

Simon's my friend.

He's been there for
me when I needed him.

That's awesome.

But if you don't mind,

I'm learning about
phytoplankton.

Who was he?

Hm?

The guy who broke your heart?

Who was he?

I mean, it's not Jace, if
that's what you're asking.

Wait...

you and Jace?

True story.

It was fun. Nothing more.

But someone hurt you.

Someone who meant a lot.

We've all been there.

Me. Simon.

It doesn't mean you
should stop trying.

Who do you think you are,

coming in here and talking
to me about heartbreak.

You don't know
anything about me.

You're right.

But I know Simon.

And he's smart.

Sweet.

- Caring...
- You think I don't know that?

Hey, maybe you have
it all figured out,

but I lost control once,

and I'm not going
to do it again.

Losing control sucks.

I know that better than anyone.

But it's a hell of a lot better

than never taking
a chance at all.

Nice to meet you, Maia.



Magnus, calm down.

Was he ever going to tell me?!

I don't know. Look,
he didn't tell...

I trusted him, Lucian.

More than anyone.

And this is what happens?

Hey. I know you're hurting.

I get it.

And I'm sorry.

But you gotta settle down.

No.

Now is not the time
for settling down.

Yes, it is.

Alec is trying.

Trust me, he's on our side.

He would never do
anything to hurt you.

It's too late for that now.

The Seelie Queen was right.

We can't trust the Clave.

They've deceived us again.

Only now, Valentine is free,

and the sword's missing

and the survival of the
entire Downworld's at stake.

We need to tell her.

I don't trust her. I never have.

She's the most powerful
person in the Downworld.

If we want to stop Valentine...

we're going to need
the Queen's help.

I'll arrange a
trip to the Court.



You know, Clary, what I said...

- earlier, about Jonathan.
- No, it's OK.

You don't have to apologize.

I'm not apologizing.

He's the only
family I have left.

You may not consider me family,

but I care about you.

Look, if you're
ever in any danger,

I'm gonna do whatever it
takes to keep you safe.

If that means Jonathan
has to die, so be it.

Clary! The Ley Line
intersection's close.



It's here. Do you see something?

That's it, isn't it?

That's the Mortal Mirror.

OK, let's go.

Clary...

CLARY, RUN!

NO, DON'T!

You're Jonathan, aren't you?

You're my brother.

You don't want to hurt me.

If you hurt Jace, that's
exactly what you'll be doing.

This is what you
came for, isn't it?

You can take this and go.

Or...

you can come with us.

We can help you.

Whatever Valentine's
told you, it's lies.

Whatever happened in the past,

whatever you've done,
it doesn't matter.

You're my family.

Take the mirror and go, Clary!

No! Not without you!

It's the only way to
protect the mirror.

GO!

- DOT, NO!
- Come on!

You know I'm ready now, right?

I remember holding you

when you were just
a few hours old.

I looked into those little eyes,

and promised I'd never let
anything bad ever happen to you.

But we're Nephilim.

It's our calling.

I'll have Alec put in
a call to the Clave.

Report to the Ops Center
first thing tomorrow.

Maia!

Hey...

Um...

I know this is going
to be difficult,

but I'm going to ask you
to not to speak. OK?

Yeah. Sure. Yeah. I
can totally do that.

I mean, there are times to talk
and there are times to not talk.

And I... right.

You were saying.

I've made my fair share
of mistakes with guys

and...

I was afraid to put
myself out there.

You've had your heart broken.

I guess that's something
we have in common.

This was different.

But...

maybe now I'm ready
to take a chance.

I mean... I guess...

I just need to take things slow.

Sure! Yeah!

I mean, slow is good.

I'm a vampire, so...

I kind of have all the
time in the world.

Do you think...

the paddle boats are still open?

I think so.



If I had known Dot
was gonna do that,

I would've never
left without her.

She knew what she was doing.

Because of her, Valentine
can't raise the Angel.

We are finally one
step ahead of him.

Hey...

she survived Valentine.

She'll survive this.

All this fighting and
bloodshed, but...

God, for what?



Hey, you OK?

It was like my dream.

I was back at the lake,

drowning, and...

there were these two
swords coming at me.

These aren't dreams.

They're visions.

I think it's some
kind of message.



What are you doing?

Hey!

Buddy, I, uh...

Don't... don't mind me,

I'm just looking for...

something for the boss.

How's the, uh... training going?

What's the matter?

I found a single hair,

stuck in the bottom of the box.

You're him.

You're Jonathan
