Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments (2016–…): Season 3, Episode 5 - Stronger Than Heaven - full transcript

Previously on Shadowhunters...

Sister Cleophas, are you Luke's sister?

I am.

What is that?

Simon, watch out!

I'm Simon. Kyle.

Do you know anyone who needs a place?

This place is awesome!

Jace...

Why don't you remember where
you've been all night?

I think I'm losing my mind.



What broke you free of my order?

Clary.

I have a rather complicated
problem, and I hear if anyone

can help me... it's you.

I would've sworn I knew
every warlock in this city.

Oh, I'm not from around here.

And how is it that you
heard about my services?

A friend spoke of you:
the late Ragnor Fell.

I'm no slouch,

but... what I do need

is beyond my level of expertise.

Well, for a friend of Ragnor's...

I would do just about anything.

So... what exactly do you need?



Well...

I'm looking for something
that could make a person...

fall out of love.

Is that something you could do?

I can...

but I don't recommend it.

You see, heartache,

in all of its bittersweet torture,

is almost always preferable
to the alternative.

My elixir would erase
everything you've ever felt

for the other person. It would
be almost as if you've...

never loved at all.

Well, it's actually not for me.

It's for a former lover.

A soldier.

I've tried to get him to move on,

but he's still madly in love,

and his obsession is starting to
distract him from his duties.

And... well, I worry...

what could happen if he can't
focus on the task at hand.

In the rare case, I suppose...

erasing love is actually
an act of compassion.

An hour before he drinks this...

you must add one last ingredient:

a tiny sliver of your soul.

My soul? Why?

Well, you are the object
of his affection.

In order for the elixir to work,

it must contain a trace of you.

You do know how to perform
an extraction, don't you?

Of course.

Thank you, Mr. Bane.

You really are a true lifesaver.

From everything I've heard,

my mother suffered in
silence alone for years.

She never got the help she needed.

We won't make the same mistake.

Whatever's happening to you,
we're gonna figure it out.

Together.

I'm... thinking of going

to the City of Bones for treatment.

With the Silent Brothers?

They have a history of
helping Shadowhunters

with mental health issues.

Jace, we don't know that's
what you're going through.

There's a family history.

But you didn't start feeling this way

until after you were brought back.

Do you really think
that's a coincidence?

I think it was a trigger...

for something that's always been there.

Look, I can't sit...

benched and do nothing.
If there is even a chance

that the Silent Brothers
can help, then that's...

But what if they can't?

Jace, the Clave would
deem you unfit for duty.

You'd be deruned.

And what choice do I have?

I can't live like this.

I could try to talk to the Angel.

No. No, it's too dangerous.

Look. If we summon Raziel,
he could destroy us

just for bothering him.

What about Ithuriel?

He's helped us before. His
blood runs in our veins.

Jace, if you are suffering
the consequences

of being brought back from the dead,

then... maybe he can do something.

Well, what are you gonna do?
Are you gonna text him?

I'll... come up with something.

OK?

Is everything OK?

Yeah!

Everything is great.

Just tidying up a bit.

Tidying up?

Why don't you just snap your fingers?

Well, I find it relaxing.

I suppose I'm odd that way.

You're odd in a lot ways.

Is that... one of my shirts?

Yeah... Is it... not my style?

Or your sleeve length.

Better.

Fits perfectly.

But still, I think it would be nicer...

if I had one of my own shirts.

Oh, OK. I think I can manage that.

No, it's OK.

It fits fine.

It's just I was thinking...

that it wouldn't be an issue
if I didn't have to go

back and forth so much.

I mean I spend almost every night here.

So... what if I...

moved in?

Bad idea?

No!

It's... a wonderful idea.

For the future.

OK. Um...

You know, I just thought...

We've been seeing each other
for less than two months.

Alexander, once we move in together,

our relationship will change.

Yeah. We'll be even closer.

There's no such thing.

If there's one thing
I've learned in the...

course of my long life...

it's to take your time

OK?

Mm-hmm.

Speaking of time, I gotta go.

I'm already late for a house-call.

Talk to you tonight?

- Yeah.
- Yeah!

- See you then.
- See you.

Look, I have no idea what
you're talking about!

I'm telling you, I never
canceled this gig!

Well, someone sure did.
Show's off, end of story.

Come on. No, no, no, no.
Come on, come on, come on!

I already loaded all of
my gear into the van.

Well, can I at least get paid?

What are you doing day-drinking?

Personal day.

Really? You guys get personal days?

What was going on there?

I was supposed to play a show tonight,

but my manager called and canceled...

except I don't have a manager,

and I actually really
needed that money.

I think Russell and his goons
are trying to sabotage me.

It could be Raphael...
or the Seelie Queen.

You know? Everyone kind of
hates me at the moment.

Popular as always, I see.

What happened?

It's a long story.

The Seelie Queen did some

plant magic on my forehead,

and now there's this mark there

that blasts anyone who
tries to hurt me.

So, you're saying as
much as I'd like to,

I probably shouldn't
deck you right now?

Unless a full body cast is
your idea of a good time,

I'd say no. But, you know what?

One for good measure?

Still, someone may be
trying to mess with you

the only way they can.

You obviously can't deal with this,

so I'm gonna figure it out for you.

Since when do you care
about what happens to me?

Mm-mm.

Oh, no. I don't care
what happens to you.

Clary does.

Can I borrow a dress?

I need something mundane to wear.

Going undercover?

Something like that...

Izzy, is there something going on?

I'm going out tonight

with the doctor.

Tell me everything.

It's just dinner.

I'm only doing it so
he can leave me alone.

Well, then why go out with him at all?

You're right. I should cancel.

Help with The Owl search.

Izzy, you've been working non-stop.

You can take a couple
hours and enjoy yourself.

It'd be good for you.

Are these the victims of the Owl?

Yeah. 26 victims in total

throughout the tristate area.
Law enforcement thinks it's

some deranged cult

brainwashing their members
to kill their loved ones.

What's up?

I need to talk to your sister.

Cleophas?

I need an Iron Sister...

and for what I have to do,

I can't go to the Citadel.

What's this all about?

Kiddo, it's me.

You can talk to me about anything.

Um...

Back at Lake Lyn...

when Jace and I were
battling Valentine...

Jace wasn't just injured.

He was killed.

What?!

I was

holding him,

dead in my arms, and...

Raziel was right in front of me.

I did the only thing I could.

You had Raziel bring him back?

I had no choice.

Luke, I've been lying.

I've been lying to Alec,

to Izzy, to everyone! It's...
it's eating me up inside.

This is not who I am.

- It's OK.
- No, it's not.

Because... ever since Jace has
been brought back to life...

he hasn't been himself.

There is something...

seriously wrong with him.

And that's why you need Cleophas?

She can communicate
with the angels, right?

She can ask Ithuriel for help.

Here, boy.

Remember this scent.

Find Clary Fairchild,

and bring me a sliver of her soul.

Who are you?

I live here. Who are you?

Jace, This is, uh...

Kyle, my roommate. Kyle, this is Jace.

He's a good friend of mine.

Friend of a friend.

Mind if I talk to him in private?

Thanks.

No worries. I was gonna
run to the bodega anyway.

You just went this morning.

Yeah, that was breakfast,
this is lunch.

- Do you want anything?
- No, we're good. Thank you.

I spoke to Luke's pack.

It turns out they like
you even less than I do,

but they did not cancel your gig.

So I'm guessing whoever's
messing with you,

it has something to do with
that mark on your forehead.

What more can you tell me about it?

Look, um... I really
appreciate the effort, I do,

but the shockwaves
emanating from my forehead

are all I've been able to think
about until I moved in here.

This place is like my own,

semi-private oasis.

So can...

So can we just play like, Call of Duty?

Or we've got old-school
Mortal Kombat too,

- which is pretty cool.
- Mm-hmm.

Is all this stuff yours?

No, it's Kyle's. So is
this sweet Les Paul.

See? This is like, the perfect
apartment for me. Right?

Yeah.

Izzy, I looked through
everything Magnus has

on de-possession. Nothing matches

Morgan's symptoms.

I'm, uh...

I'm leaving now.

"If anything will keep me safe,

"it's this picture,

"close to my heart.

All my love, George."

Oh, man.

I will never get used to that.

Of all places, why would she come here?

I brought her here. It's my farm.

I never knew you had a farm.

I stayed here for six months,
back when I first turned.

Back when my life fell apart.

That little farm house is
where I put it back together.

Well, let's hope it has a
similar effect on Cleophas.

I wouldn't know. I
haven't heard from her

since I brought her here.
She's cut herself off.

I can't say I blame her.

Being held captive by
Valentine, poisoned...

It's terrible.

Cleo?

It's Lucian.

Clarissa...

You're telling me this guy

almost runs you over...

- Will you stop?
- And then he just happens

- to have a room in his apartment...
- OK, will you stop?

And that just happens to be full
of all your favorite stuff?

Yes. I guess I just got lucky.

I don't believe in luck.

Is that his room?

No, it's this one. Wait, why?

I told you I was gonna
figure out what's going on.

Wait, what? What do you mean?
What are you doing?

No! No, look!

Please don't ruin this for me, Jace!

- Come on!
- I know what I'm doing.

Oh, see? Totally normal.

You really think it's
normal for a guy to have

all that out there and
none of it in here?

OK, so an uncluttered
bedroom means he's trying

to honey-pot me? I mean,

maybe the guy's just...

I don't know, really into feng shui.

And now you're going through
his underwear drawer?!

Look, Jace, you're
looking for something

where there's nothing.

Maybe not.

So he grows his own stuff.
Maybe he has a card.

You know it's medically legal now.

Stop.

You have no idea what this is.

And what do you think this is?!

OK.

This looks bad, but there's like,

a perfectly reasonable explanation...

Hey, whoa! Jace, what the hell?!

Get off me!

That plant is wolfsbane, Simon.

Your friend Kyle here is a werewolf.

Aren't you, Kyle?

Who are you?

What pack are you with?

I don't have to explain myself to you.

- You really should.
- And what about me?

You've been lying to
me this whole time?

I'm Praetor Lupus.

Who's that?

It's not a who,

it's a what.

OK, then what is it?!

It's a secret organization of wolves.

Guardians...

They only intervene in
special Downworld cases.

I've never actually met one.

How do we know you're
telling the truth?

We heard about the blast of energy

Simon unleashed on
Lucian Graymark's pack.

I was sent in to assist.

Whoa! Whoa! Just like
that, we're cool now?

He's doing his job.

I'm not a job!

The other day, when you...

ran into me, you planned that?

And this... this apartment,
it's just a trap?

We designed this place for you
so you'd want to stay here...

where it's safe.

You called off my gig?

Look... until I can
figure out how to keep

you and everybody else
from getting hurt,

- this is where you need to be.
- I don't need someone

to protect me. I need people
to tell me the truth!

Well, I was going to
tell you the truth...

when the time was right.

After all the trouble you've
had with the New York pack,

if I told you I was a wolf,
would you have listened to me?

Probably!

Sorry, call me crazy, but
I tend to respect people

that are honest with me.

You need to calm down.

Whose side are you on?!

You know what? I'm done.

Consider this me breaking my lease.

Ahem. Is now not a good time, sir?

No, it's fine.

What is it?

I wanted to report
that the main systems

have been updated and rebooted.

Great. Thank you.

Is there something else?

I, uh...

actually just wanted to thank you.

For what?

For paving the way for
Shadowhunters like me.

I've been on the front
lines for over 10 years,

but I've always had to keep
my private life separate.

If it wasn't for you, I don't know

if I ever would've been able
to come out at the Institute.

Oh.

Your... your courage...

sir, it's inspiring.

I mean, here you are, in this...

committed relationship,
with a warlock no less.

It's loving and it's trusting.
It's amazing.

Yeah. It is.

Ithuriel...

he helped us before.

And you think he could help again.

Iron Sisters do have ways to
communicate with the angels.

But I'm afraid I cannot
do that for you.

You can't, or you won't?

I have been trying to
contact the angels,

but as hard as I try,

they will not answer.

- Why?
- I'm not certain.

I sometimes wonder if my own...

irredeemable actions have
severed my ties to the heavens.

I'm useless.

But you, Clarissa...

you are far from useless.

What do you mean?

You may not be an Iron Sister,

but Ithuriel's blood runs through you,

You think I can summon Ithuriel?

No one other than an Iron
Sister has done it before.

There may be risks...

but it's certainly worth a try.

What risks?

There's a chance it
could anger Ithuriel.

He could lash out at her.

He's never hurt me before.

He chose those moments
to appear to you.

Summoning an Angel

is a whole different story.

Clary, I know this is important,

but so are you.

So is Jace.

So, why did you become a doctor

if you were scared of blood?

Both my parents are doctors.

And let's just say,

they made it clear
from a very young age

that I was going to follow
in their footsteps.

They call medicine
"the family business."

But, I mean, enough about me.

What about you?

I feel like I know nothing about you.

Except for the fact that you apparently

have a thing for snakes

or serpents or...

whatever that is on your bracelet.

- Right.
- It's cool.

You know, actually, I...

made this one.

Really? That... I mean...

You got some serious talent.

Is that what you do for work?

What? You make jewelry?

Yes.

I, uh... make jewelry.

So you're an artist.

Sweet!

So how does it work?

Do you...

Do you work from a store?

No, uh, I actually...

work from home.

That must be peaceful.

Not at all.

No?

I... live with my family.

My brothers.

We all... work together.

Family business?

We have more in common than I thought.

Thank you so much for tonight.

I really had an incredible time.

You sound so surprised.

I just... don't normally
do things like this.

Well... I know a great place downtown.
Hell's Kitchen.

One more drink?

Let's go.

Let me get us a ride.

- Hey! Charlie...
- Yeah?

I have to go.

Wait, what?

I just remembered, I have an order

I have to get out tonight.

But...

It's an important client.

Alright. Let me at
least get you a ride.

I'm sorry.

I have to go.

Seriously?

Dumb, useless demon.

Where are you going, Mother?

It appears I'll have to get
my hands dirty after all.

Isabelle?

Isabelle!

What happened?

- You okay?
- I...

My heel broke and I tripped.

Let me see.

Hmm-mmm. You need to
go to the hospital.

No, really, there's no need.

I... I'm fine.

Not with this cut. You need stitches.

You're coming with me.

Is this yours?

Kind of looks like your style.

- Yes.
- Yeah?

Thank you.

Alright, come on. OK.

This contains trace amounts of adamas,

to help call the Angels.

Activate your angelic rune.

Now, repeat after me.

Ignis aurum probat...

Ignis aurum probat...

Ita probat me...

Ita probat me.

They've heard you.

What happens now?

For you to hear them,

we have to leave you here.

Leave her here?

No way.

You're a Downworlder,

and I murdered an Iron Sister.

How do you think the
Angel's gonna react to us?

Luke...

I'll be OK.

May the Angel be with you.

Whoa!

I'm just trying to help the homeless.

Yeah. Very funny.

Now, leave me alone.

I'm keeping this by the way.

Are you seriously gonna
live in your van?

I don't know. But at least my van

is not going to spy
on me while I sleep.

Look... I'll find another place.

I just don't wanna be a
prisoner of the Wolves Templar.

I think that's a bit extreme.

Lying to me?

I don't agree with his tactics,

but Kyle did apologized to you.

Look...

I understand the
situation isn't perfect,

but if someone's offering you help...

you'd be a fool not to take it.

I tried calling.

I've been busy.

Magnus, I did something
I'm not proud of.

You're referring to
going through that box?

I'm a warlock.

I know when things are out of order.

I had no right.

It was an invasion of your privacy,

and I'm sorry.

Apology accepted.

George...

He... must be special.

He was.

A brave soldier,

like someone else I know.

Shall I whip us up some cocktails?

Martini Mondays.

- Gin or vodka?
- Gin.

Gin.

You're not jealous, are you?

You were weird before when
I asked about moving in.

- Is he still?
- The man's

been dead over a century.

Oh, why do you keep
so much of his stuff?

Alexander,

the contents in that box,
they're not George's.

I only have that single photograph.

Then what is all that?

Each of those belonged to
someone I loved and outlived.

A different committed
relationship for each one.

Why do you keep it?

I may be magical,

but my memory's far from it.

I keep those mementos
to remember them by.

Look, Alec, you know my history.

I've always been honest
with you about that.

Well...

Now that I've seen some of
that history with my own eyes,

I can't help but think... if I'm lucky,

maybe one of my arrowheads
ends up in that box.

Look, I don't even want to
think about you being gone...

But one day I will be. And
you'll just, move on...

I'm immortal!

It's not as if I have a choice.

I can't change what I am,
and neither can you.

Look...

can we just stay in the here and now?

Hmm?

Look, I want to cherish this moment...

with the one I love

You're right. I love you, too.

Good. Now, don't you go anywhere,

I'll be right back with those martinis.

There you go.

Hey. That's it?

That's it.

Wasn't so bad, was it?

No, it actually kind of tickled.

You never had stitches before, huh?

Never needed them.

So, how does this work? Who do I pay?

- Do I pay you?
- Oh, no, no.

Just... it's on the house.

Consider it my way of saying
I'm sorry, for coming on

too strong before.

You didn't come on too strong.

Really? Isn't that why
you took off running?

No. I really did have work to do.

Actually, I still do.

I have to go. Yeah.

Got it.

Why did you come looking for me

after I ditched you like that?

With all the cult-member
killings in the news, I...

I don't know. I... When
I saw you disappear

down that alley, I needed

to make sure that you were OK.

Thank you.

For the stitches.

It's been too long. What's
going on out there?

Patience, Lucian.

Look, I can keep my distance
and still keep an eye on her.

Remember when we were kids

and our neighbour got
that big German shepherd?

Brutus.

I hated that damn dog.

You were terrified of it. Like
it was a some Shax Demon.

You refused to walk past that house.

Remember what I said to you?

Yeah. You said to have faith.

And when you did walk
past it, what happened?

He licked me.

Have faith in Clary, big brother.

I know I do.

Clary, you should not be here.

Ithuriel, I'm sorry
to have summoned you.

I understand if you're angry.

It's all right, my child.

I'm here for you.

You've come because of Jace.

You know what happened?

I do.

I need to know...

is Jace...

the way he is because of what I did?

No.

But returning from death
has left him vulnerable.

You now face a greater
threat than you realize.

I... I don't understand...

A great evil has arrived in
the realm of the mundane.

The Owl?

The Owl has a master.

Its name is...

AAAH!

What are you?!

It's OK, it's OK. You're
gonna be alright. Come on.

What happened out there?

Did Ithuriel appear?

Ithuriel...

You're back.

Forgot my keyboard.

Simon, we need to talk.

OK, but later and

only if I can borrow the guitar.

Why? Where are you going with my stuff?

I got my gig back, no thanks to you.
I go in an hour.

Are you... are you out of your mind?

That place is gonna be
crawling with wolves!

Which is why I plan on using
my most ultimate weapon.

The power of music!

Do you think this is funny?
Huh? All it takes is

for one of them to come at you and
that bomb on your head goes off.

Do you really want to be
responsible for that?

Honestly, I'm not that
worried about it.

Besides, I've got you
to stop them, don't I?

What are you talking about?

I'm still not over the
fact that you lied to me,

but I'm willing to give you a chance.

You want to help me, I'm in,

- but only on my terms.
- Not how the Prateors works.

That's too bad. I'm still
gonna go on living my life.

So either you can help, or you can

go back to wherever the Praetors
come from... your call.

You got a minute?

Yeah.

You all right?

It's nothing.

It's nothing?

Just stuff with Magnus. Nothing
I'd want to bore you with.

So how are you?

Heard you took the day off.

Yeah.

I've been doing a lot of thinking.

About what's been going
on with me and...

I've decided to go to the
Silent City for treatment.

You were the one who told me
I needed to get some help.

I'm sorry.

Jace, if this doesn't
work, you realize...

I know. At least, I'll know
I tried everything, right?

I'm going with you.

I'll be by your side the whole time.

You know you can't do
that, they won't let you.

This is one fight I
have to face on my own.

Clary, where are you?

I've decided to go to the Silent City.

Just call me.

Hey, uh...

Praetor. Have you seen a Shadowhunter?

She got long red hair.

Yeah, I know who Clary Fairchild is.

Haven't seen her though.

Alright, hey!

I'm Simon Lewis.

It was a long road to get here tonight,

but I made it. Thanks
to my roady/roommate.

All right! Yeah!

Could you do a girl a favour
and get me one of those?

I'd love to..

But I don't think my
girlfriend would like that

very much.

I didn't mean it like
that, it's just...

you seem to be the only person who
can get any service around here.

Right.

Let's get one.

Thank you.

Whoever she is, she must be wonderful.

Yeah, she is.

To true love.

Very good.

Now, nothing will come between us.

How do you feel?

Like a new man.
