Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 6 - Iron Sisters - full transcript

Previously on Shadowhunters...

Can you pledge your
loyalty to the Clave?

No, I can't.

Valentine has the Soul-Sword.

He slaughtered the
Silent Brothers.

Take my son. Kill the other one.

Get the sword!

What did I do?

What happened with Jocelyn,

that wasn't you.
That was the demon.

It's inside her.



Go back to Hell
where you belong.

There is something that can
make the infection go away.

It's called yin fen.

- Mom...
- Clary, I'm so sorry.

I wish I could get
ahold of Luke.

- Simon!
- Oh, my...

- What the hell was that?
- I saw this vision,

- so I drew it.
- Let's keep this to ourselves.

Ignis aurum probat.

Always.

You let your mind wander,
Sister Cleophas.

A job well done, Iron Sisters.

The swords pass inspection.

Sisters. I have news from Idris.



The Circle has attacked
the City of Bones.

Only a few survived.

Valentine has taken
the Soul-Sword.

Nobody is safe.

Reinforce the Citadel.

♪ We're coming ♪

♪ After you ♪

♪ This is the hunt ♪

♪ This is the hunt ♪

Yeah, I'm not seeing
it in the Gray Book.

Well, isn't that thing supposed
to have every single rune?

Some of them are removed.

They're reserved for the most
elite members of the Clave.

I'm not exactly elite,
so why do I know it?

Maybe you saw it somewhere
and you don't remember.

No, it just... It
appeared, like a vision.

Like someone or something was
trying to send me a message.

Maybe it's from our mom.

Clary, I know you miss her...

How else do you explain it?

I don't know.

You know, I'll just
go ask Izzy and Alec.

- Maybe they'll know something.
- No.

Absolutely not.

If you tell anyone else, they
could be in danger, too.

The Clave is quick
to persecute anyone

or anything they
don't understand.

Come in.

Just wanted to see
how Clary was doing.

But if I'm interrupting
something...

- Nope.
- No.

Not at all.

You've been home
for, what, a day?

And already you're letting
a mundane see you feed?

It's not like I invited her in.

Besides, I wouldn't be
in this predicament

if you hadn't just brought
me the O-neg I asked for.

Do I look like a
delivery boy to you?

Raphael, I have no idea
what she's gonna do.

You need to fix this.

Sounds like I don't
have a choice, do I?

There'll be consequences, amigo.

Wait. What do you
mean, consequences?

Raphael.

How is he? Is he sleeping?

Everything is gonna be
just fine, Mrs. Lewis.

You holding up okay?

I miss her... a lot.

And then there's Luke.
He's just vanished.

Luke'll be fine.
And so will you.

It just takes time.

How's Alec doing?

I can tell he still feels horrible
for what happened to your mom.

He can't keep blaming himself.

He's strong. He'll heal.

I see you've healed.

I've never stabbed
a friend before,

so I figure I at least owe
you an apology, or...

There's no need.

You destroyed that demon.

And besides, I'm
all healed up now.

Aldertree cleared
me for mission.

Are the Iron Sisters anything
like the Silent Brothers?

For starters, the Sisters'
mouths aren't sewn shut.

They're badass warriors who
create all of our weapons.

Wow.

I see why you wanted to be one.

If you're lucky enough to be
accepted into the sisterhood,

you're marked by sacred runes.

It's what allows the Iron
Sisters to shape pure adamas.

The Sisters call upon
the power of the angels

to imbue our blades
with their energy.

I hate to leave you.

Then I guess I have
to come with you.

- Clary, you just lost...
- My mom.

I know. But I... I can't
sit here and mope.

I need to do something...
anything to stop Valentine.

He is the reason
my mother is dead.

Ah, Isabelle.

A welcome reprieve from work.

Before I move out on mission, I
would like to get a refill for...

Yin fen. You're
using as directed?

Absolutely. A little
goes a long way.

One more thing.

Clary would like to join the
mission to the Citadel.

But she's not trained.

I'll keep an eye on her.

You and Clary have grown close.

But how well do you
really know her?

Pretty well.

She's Valentine's daughter.

And the Clave, they've
expressed their concern

that Valentine may have
experimented on Clary.

Injected her with
demon blood as well.

There's no way.

You grew up with Jace. Never
suspected he had demon blood.

I will grant your request.

Mmm.

But I'm gonna need you
to report back to me

everything Clary says and does.

You're asking me
to spy on Clary?

Wait, what?

You moved your stuff
back to the boat basin?

Turns out being a vampire
who only drinks blood

doesn't jive really well
with a Jewish mother

who's always trying to feed you.

She doesn't remember
you coming home?

Seems a bit much to
wipe her memory.

Yeah. Well, she saw me...

um, in an awkward situation.

What situation?

I know I tell you everything,

but in this case, just take my word.
It was bad.

I just wish I was at the
funeral with you instead.

I can't believe the Clave and
their stupid ban on Downworlders.

You should've been able to go.
Luke, too.

He still hasn't called.
I'm worried.

My mom was everything to him.

Maybe I shouldn't go
on this mission...

No, Clary. I'll find Luke.

I'll check with the pack.
See if they have any leads.

You go with Izzy.

You're the best.

Bye.

So, that's it? You're
giving up on Luke?

We looked everywhere.

His trail's gone cold.

But he's your friend,
your pack leader.

Yeah, well, if you find him, you
can remind him of all that.

Lately, Luke's been
far more concerned

with Shadowhunters
than his own pack.

Wow.

You did not strike me
as the jealous type.

Maybe I'm just getting tired of you
leaving your stink around here.

Alaric, come on. What if
Luke's in real trouble?

He's a wolf.

I'd be far more worried for
whoever crosses his path.

Good on jam.

Hmm.

- Restock werewolf.
- Magnus.

I got your fire message.
What's the emergency?

- Are those...
- Fangs?

Yes. Very potent.

Good for digestion.

I'm sorry about the
emergency call,

but it was the only way
to get your attention.

Well, since you're okay, I
should probably get back.

I'm not okay...

because you're not okay.

Alexander...

you've been to hell and back.

And you haven't stopped for a second,
taken a moment for yourself.

Magnus, we're in the
middle of a war.

There will always be a war.

A mission. A... a
problem to solve.

Look, I speak from experience.

If you fail to grant time for
the things you care about,

you'll forget why you're
even fighting at all.

What do you have in mind?

I got the hint, Alaric.

This is me leaving. I'm
just about packed.

Looks like you barely moved in.

You sleep in a canoe?

Yeah, uh...

I guess it's not
exactly Posturepedic,

but it's better than
a coffin, though.

Although, I've never really slept in one.
So I wouldn't...

At home I have memory foam,
which I really miss.

It's, uh, developed by NASA,
which I highly recommend.

But you're... you're probably
not in the market for a bed,

so, uh... never mind.

Do you always talk this much?

When I'm nervous.

Why would you be nervous?

It's just my natural
disposition, I guess.

- I'm... I'm Simon.
- Maia.

I heard you back
there with Alaric.

How do you know Luke?

Me and Luke go way back.

He's kinda like a dad
to my friend Clary.

He coached my
little league team.

Well, even though the pack stopped
looking for Luke, I haven't.

Really? That's such a relief.

'Cause I could
really use the help.

Um, we should totally...

There is no "we."

You know it's too
dangerous for a vampire

to hunt a werewolf while
he's wolfing out.

When we first Turn,

any stress or emotion can set us off.
Especially sadness.

Like if someone
close to you died.

If Luke's lost control, he could
be out there hurting someone.

No. Luke would never do that.

I mean, can you think of
anywhere he might've gone?

Somewhere removed?

- Away from people?
- I don't know.

We used to go camping.

Here. I'll drive.

One condition.

Yeah.

We keep the talking to a minimum.
Yeah?

Whoa.

This is more amazing
than I imagined.

I can't believe I'm
actually going inside.

Speak your names.

Isabelle Lightwood.

Clary Fairchild.

Valentine's daughter.

Your father killed
the Silent Brothers.

He's taken our most
valuable weapon.

You must leave immediately.

Clary's done nothing wrong.

Allow me.

What answers do you seek?

Why did Valentine go to all that
trouble to steal the Soul-Sword?

Yes, Valentine is my father,
but that man killed my mother.

He experimented on my brother.

I want to stop him
more than anyone.

And if we have any chance
at defeating him...

we need your help.

Sister Cleophas, how long
have you been in the order?

Fourteen beautiful years.

I never planned on following
in my mother's footsteps.

I was happy living in Idris
with my sister Amatis,

when my brother Lucian was
scratched in a werewolf attack.

I did what I had to do to
restore our family's honor.

Do you mean Luke?

Are you Luke's sister?

I am.

We must begin the purity trial.

What's that?

For the answers you seek, we
must go inside the Citadel.

But we cannot allow any
demonic impurities to pass.

The adamas is too fragile.

So, the heavenly
energy in the water

will help us determine
if you may enter.

It will destroy any
contaminant upon contact.

Your demon blood makes it
impossible to trust you.

So, how about telling me why you and
Clary are studying the Gray Book.

I have eyes everywhere.

What are Valentine's
little children up to?

I was teaching her about
the history of runes.

Last time I checked, educating a
fellow Shadowhunter wasn't a crime.

It's a shame you won't have
much time for tutoring anymore.

I'm placing you on ichor duty.

Do I look like a
first-year grunt to you?

I can have you clean the
latrines if you'd prefer.

Thank you.

You're very welcome.

I'm not much of a beer drinker,

but my bartender friend
swears by this IPA.

Oh, well, I'm not much
of a drinker, period,

but I'll take your word for it.

Cheers.

You hate it.

No, it's, um... It's great.

You see that? It's
just like archery.

It's all about the aim, Magnus.

Who knew there were
so many similarities.

Can't win 'em all.

Wait, did you do your... thing?

Haven't you heard the saying?

"If you can't find the one being
hustled in the pool hall,

"then it's probably you."

- Okay. - Okay?
- Okay. - Yeah.

Let's play.

- Who's Clary?
- Hmm?

Luke's kind of daughter?

Oh, Clary, um...

We met in first grade. Miss
Hiddleston's art class.

She ran to get the nurse when I
had an allergic reaction to clay.

So, naturally, we've been
best friends ever since.

- Best friends, huh?
- Mmm-hmm.

There some other guy she's into?

Well, I mean... she was
into this one guy, Jace,

but it's kind of a long story.

Jace Wayland?

You know him?

I kind of tried to kill him.

- Really?
- Yeah, typical Shadowhunter.

They act like
they're our allies,

but really, they don't
know what we go through

just to get through the day.

Tell me about it.

You know, and just
when I thought

I was starting to get
the hang of... it,

I sank to the all...
all-time low.

What happened?

Oh, now you're quiet?

Look, man, I've been
through some pretty

horrible things
myself, so I get it.

Like what?

Uh...

Okay, I've actually never
told anyone this, but, um...

You know that nightmare you have

about showing up
to school naked?

Mmm-hmm.

Well, after an unexpected
transformation...

I came out of it butt naked
and late for calculus.

No.

It was horrible.

What did you do?

I hid in an empty classroom
until everybody left,

and, luckily, I found a
band uniform to wear,

but, in hindsight, it probably
would've been less embarrassing

to just be naked.

Okay.

I will raise you one.

I was holed up at home with...
with nothing to feed on.

No food.

And we've been having, like, a...
a rodent problem lately.

- You didn't.
- Oh, yeah. I did.

My mom walked in on me just
sucking the blood out of a rat.

That's so vile.

Munching down.

Yuck, but it could be worse.

You could've been
sucking on a rat naked.

I suppose we both have a healthy
dose of the competitive spirit.

I grew up with Jace.

I didn't have much of a choice.

Some people can't be
around that energy.

I, in turn, find
it invigorating,

as I'm sure your
exes did as well.

Lydia never complained.

I thought you knew Lydia for a millisecond
before your arranged marriage.

Wait.

Lydia...

Is she your only ex?

I just haven't had, uh...

you know, time for a
real relationship.

You know...

This is... This is good.

Alexander...

just so I'm clear...

have you ever been
in a relationship?

- Clary, you can't do this.
- Why not?

You heard her. It's dangerous.

The water only affects demonic energy.
We'll be fine.

But what if it's not fine?

You think I have demon blood.
Like Jace.

There's only one
way to find out.

Ignis aurum probat.

Clary Fairchild...

you are deemed clear of
all demonic impurities.

Ignis aurum probat.

Izzy! No!

Give me your hand.

Come on!

Izzy, are you okay?

What happened?

I have no idea.

The water does not lie...

but perhaps you do.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

You are tainted with
demonic impurities.

I'm sorry, Isabelle.

We can't let you
inside the Citadel.

No, this has to be a mistake.

She had a demon wound, maybe
that's what the water reacted to.

But she's fine now.
She's healed.

You are free to leave, if
that is what you desire.

No.

You go ahead. We need answers.

Your friend has no
idea, does she?

Yin fen permeates your body.

Vampire venom churns
through your veins.

What?

You didn't know? Yin fen is
made from vampire venom.

I was injured. It was given to
me so I could heal quickly.

Yin fen will not heal you.

Be careful.

Full disclosure,

I'd rather be hunting in
the woods of Far Cry 3.

Really?

I just never would have
pegged you for a gamer.

When I first Turned, I'd spend
hours playing video games.

Just me and endless
bags of potato chips.

I was terrified to go out.

Afraid that I would
hurt someone.

That I wouldn't be able
to control myself.

Well, you seem very
in control now.

At least, as far as I can tell.

Yeah, well, thank Luke for that.

It's Maia, right?

You're gonna be okay.

Probably just going
through shock.

How about I sit right here?

Ride with you to the hospital?

What am I gonna say, "No"?
You're a cop.

I gather you're not a
big fan of the police.

Probably met a few who
abused their power.

Well, I'm not like them.

I know what you're
going through.

How?

I don't even know what
I'm going through.

The last thing I remember,
there was this girl...

and...

Oh, God.

Did I?

No, no. She... she'll live.

We just have to watch her.

Make sure she doesn't Turn.

Turn? What are you
talking about?

Are you...

Am I?

Yes.

No, no. This isn't happening.

Maia. Maia, calm down. You
have to control yourself.

Our changes are linked
to our emotion.

Now, you don't wanna hurt
anybody else, do you?

No.

Okay.

The first time... that's
always the worst.

But you learn to control it.

You just can't give
in to yourself.

You gotta fight.

And those who care about you...
they'll fight with you.

I don't have anyone
that cares about me.

You do now.

You smell that?

- Blood.
- This way.

- Oh, no. Are... are those...
- Claw marks.

- You're weirded out.
- Mmm.

Who says I'm weirded out?

You wanna know why I haven't
been in a relationship?

Because of this.

'Cause...

I didn't wanna feel like there
was something wrong with me,

because I grew up in the
Institute, because...

I always knew I couldn't
have what I wanted...

until you came along.

Nothing's wrong with you.

Far from it.

But you're so...

innocent.

In some ways, but...

I don't want you to
treat me any different.

But you are different.

And it's a good thing.

What about you? I mean, you
must have had plenty of exes.

What do you mean?

You know what I mean.

Alexander, look, I've
lived for centuries.

I've been with men, women,
Seelies, warlocks, vampires...

- a djinn or two.
- How many?

- How many?
- It's not a trick question.

You can round down if you want.

Okay.

If you wanna know,
I'll tell you.

Seventeen.

Seventeen.

That... that's...

Seventeen... hundred?

- Seventeen thousand?
- It was all in the past.

Ancient history.

But right now I'm here.
With you.

Yeah, me and... 17,000
other memories.

Look...

I am who I am.

And you are who you are.

And all the magic in the
world can't change that.

So... let's just try to
make the best of it.

Sure.

Make it shine.

I at least thought you'd last
till the end of your shift.

Why are you doing this to me?

I proved that I wasn't
in league with Valentine

but you're still
treating me like I was.

And everyone else here is
questioning my allegiance.

As they should.

Final question.

Can you pledge your unconditional
loyalty to the Clave?

Facilis descensus Averno.

- I asked you a question.
- Turn it off.

What do you want from me?

It's my job to make sure our
Shadowhunters are protected.

To do that, they must
know the truth about you.

You want me to leave.

But you don't have the
authority to kick me out,

so you're making my life hell.

And now you're
trying to sabotage

any shred of credibility
I have left?

If you choose to stay,

I'll have no other choice but to show
everyone who they're living with.

Who they're fighting alongside.

Sister Cleophas, I don't wanna
scare you, but I'm worried.

- It's Luke.
- Lucian?

He's the closest thing
I've ever had to a father.

But since my mother died...

Jocelyn.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Since then... Luke
has gone missing.

He's not returning calls.
He's not showing up to work.

No one has seen or
heard from him.

He did love her.

Lucian always had a
strong sense of loyalty.

Almost to his detriment.

My sweet girl, I
fear you are right.

My brother is in danger,

but not for the
reasons you think.

What kind of danger?

Long ago, the Angel Raziel

bestowed the Mortal Instruments
to the first Shadowhunter.

Among them, the Soul-Sword.

Its primary purpose is
to compel the truth,

but it has a secondary purpose.

If ever the day came where Shadowhunters
failed in their holy mission,

and demons overtook the world...

- Oh, my God.
- As a last resort,

the Sword could be activated
with angelic energy,

releasing heavenly light
that will destroy

demon-blooded creatures
in its path.

Oh, my God.

Demon-blooded creatures.

Does that mean...

Downworlders. Yes.

Did you hear that?

It's probably just a deer.

Mmm.

Luke, no! Don't do it.

- Simon!
- Stay back. I got this.

Uh, doesn't look like it.

- Who's out there?
- Stay in the tent.

Luke, it's me.

Simon. The guy you
taught to shave.

Go with the grain, right?

Remember?

When we were kids, Clary and
I, you brought us here.

We roasted marshmallows.

Clary got one stuck in her hair.

And... and Jocelyn
had to cut it out.

Yeah?

Clary cried, like,
the whole way home

because she thought she looked like a boy.
But you told her that...

she was still beautiful,

and that you would
always love her.

Yeah.

The Sword needs angelic energy?

To activate the Sword, it must
wielded by an angelic being,

and struck by a
bolt of lightning.

Then it's capable
of mass murder.

Of killing my
friends, my family.

If Valentine does activate the
Sword, how do we turn it off?

It is impossible.

So there has to be a way to stop
Valentine before he activates it.

I can't lose Luke, too.

You mustn't let the Downworld
know what the Sword can do.

Panic and chaos could ensue.

Uprisings. We cannot
let that happen.

Sister Cleophas, I need
to ask you something.

When my mother died, I
was given a message.

An image of a rune.

What kind of rune?

I don't know.

- It's not in the Gray Book.
- I need you to show me.

- Can you do that?
- Yeah.

Do you think it's possible
my mother sent it?

As an angel?

Jocelyn was kind and loving.

And an angel to you, perhaps.

But no, she's not an angel
in the Shadow World.

Our angels are beloved
winged celestial beings.

So... what about my mom?

What happens to her?

That, my dear, has always been as
much a mystery to Shadowhunters

as it is to mundanes.

When I heard Jocelyn died, I've
never felt pain like that.

Not since my family disowned me.

That's why I came up here.

So nobody would get hurt.

- Nobody got hurt.
- Barely.

Luke, that wasn't you.

That was the grief.

She's really gone.

But we're here.

Please come back with us.
We need you.

Clary needs you.

You think that I don't
wanna be there for Clary?

For all of you?

But what use am I if I
can't control myself?

Luke, you've gotta fight.

And those that care about
you will fight with you.

For a guy so used to Portals,

I have to admit, nothing beats a
late night stroll through the city.

Yeah. Gives you time to think.

You must have thought a lot.

You barely said a word
the whole way home.

Magnus...

Do you think...
maybe we're too...

Different?

Yeah.

We're from totally
different worlds.

Different centuries.

Look, I... I should go.

Look, I don't care how many
people you've been with.

I don't care how many people
you haven't been with.

I hear that relationships, they, um...
take effort.

I'm all for effort.

Sorry for killing the mood.

You got a spare room?

I just can't believe how close
I came to being Luke's dinner.

A wolf that size, more
like an hors d'oeuvre.

Man, I miss hors d'oeuvres.

Oh... I miss chocolate.

Ever since I Turned,
it makes me puke.

That's awful.

Simon...

what you did back
there, with Luke,

that was, like,
seriously inspiring.

Really? I... I don't think I've
ever inspired anyone before.

- I'm sure you have.
- No, no.

Almost came to me, but just...
just ran right away.

Oh, come on, come on.

What? Okay, how would I have
inspired someone, tell me.

Hey, kiddo.

Hey.

Simon called me
when he found you.

I am so sorry I
wasn't there for you.

You're here now. That's
all that matters.

Clary doesn't have demon blood.

You're sure?

There was a purity trial. She
passed with flying colors.

A purity trial?

- How did you fare?
- I almost died!

I'm sorry, Isabelle. I had no
idea there'd be a purity trial,

otherwise I never
would have sent you.

How can I believe you?

I wanted you to heal.

So you could go on mission
to the Iron Sisters,

just like you wanted
so desperately.

I would never cause
you any harm.

But if you don't want anymore,
I understand. It's...

Wait.

All I ever wanted
was to help you.

But now, I'm going
to need your help.

If there's anything you
neglected to tell me,

anything about Clary
Fairchild, I need to know.

I've told you everything I know.

Sister Cleophas, wait!

Return to the Citadel.

You never saw me.
Do you understand?

I cannot do that.

I thought this was
all behind you.

Cleophas, please. Stay.
