Siberia (2013–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - Strange Bedfellows - full transcript

Previously on Siberia...

Oh, my God.

We got four dead
bodies, all of whom are shot.

- Hello?
- We're not getting a signal.

- We're so close.
- Guys, I know what the problem is.

I know what the problem is.
Hey, I know what the problem is.

Oh, my God.
That's the beacon.

No wonder we couldn't
find this place.

- Miljan, where have you been?
- They took her.

They're coming for us, guys.
They're gonna get us.

- Did you see Esther around?
- No.



- What happened to Irene?
- They took her.

We have to find the gun.

Run!

Look for a gun!
Look for a gun!

It's a plane!

Hey!

What is that?

It's footage from
a 1927 expedition.

That's-- See that guy
right there?

That's Leonid Kulik.

Kulik? Isn't that the guy
from Miljan's journal?

- Guys, come on out!
- What, again, Miljan? What?

Hey!

_



_

_

- Sabina.
- Shh!

_

No.

_

Let's just get
the hell out of here.

Can we use this to get online
and try and get some help here?

There's no internet out here.

So can't you hack it
or something? You--

No, you can't just hack it.

If there's no internet,
there's no internet.

- It's a research station. - All right.
They don't-- they don't have internet.

All right? So let's forget
about the internet.

What do we do?
We gotta do something.

I don't think we go
back out there again.

I'm not going through
the same thing.

'Cause the next time
we go out there, we're dead.

If we don't help the others,
they're dead.

Daniel, I hate
to break it to you, man,

but listen, if they haven't been
found by a rescue group,

Irene's gone.

Fuck you, dude.

Well, that's gonna do
a lot of good.

I'm just trying to be
realistic here.

I mean, three days
in this shithole?

You were just telling him
the truth.

Hey.

I brought you some boots.

I failed.

Come on, Daniel.
You didn't fail.

Everything we've done, we've
done because you've pushed us

because you want to help Irene.

This was a stupid plan.

Come out to this? To what?
This is nothing.

We're not any closer to being
rescued than we were before.

You know what? You got us here.

We have shelter, we...

These things we've seen
and been through--

just nothing makes sense
anymore.

It's like Victoria.

She just-- she said
we all should have left.

Why didn't we listen?

I know you're questioning
yourself,

but I know you're strong,

and-- and if it wasn't
for you,

we-- we would have
not made it, okay?

I just don't feel
like that's true.

I need you to man up.

I can't have you broken down,

because I'm counting
on you, Daniel.

We all have to be strong,
and we're all in this together.

And I need you
to fix that radio.

I want to get out of here, too.
I want to go home.

I'm gonna go
check out the beacon.

Thanks for the boots.

Okay. Okay. Okay.

Hey, relax. Relax.

Esther, Annie, are you all right?

- Shh.
- Guys, did you see--?

_

- Shh.
- Did you see that blood?

- Shh!
- They didn't hurt you?

- They didn't touch you?
- No, no.

What about Irene?
Have you seen Irene?

- She's in another tent. She...
- Is she okay?

_

_

Well, if she's there,
she's not dead, right?

She hasn't come out.

Why would they take
a corpse inside?

I think we can fix this.

Sam, this isn't like
one of your cars.

What I'm trying to say is...

with your brains and my hands,

we can get it done.

I don't know, Sam.

What you got?

You ever heard
of a loop antenna?

No. What's that?

Uh, you know how a car has
an antenna by the windshield

and then there's another
that kind of coils around?

- Goes around the windshield.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah. Yeah.

If we can loop it
around the roof,

we can make our own antenna.

You know how to do it?

No. But I'll figure it out.

What do you need from me?

As much wire as possible.

Let's rock 'n' roll.

Whatcha doin'?

I'm just checking to see
if these guys

have any cell phones
or anything.

Lootin', huh?

Wouldn't call it that.

Does this creep you out at all?

What do you mean?

I don't know. I mean...

Don't take
a genius to figure out

something weird is
going on here, you know?

Something...

The charts, the graphs...

those dead bodies.

Maybe those guys found out something

they weren't supposed to know.

So what do they expect us to do?
Just sit here and wait?

We have to wait.
We can't piss them off.

We have to see what they want.

Okay?

Just calm down, Neeko.

But Sam read about these...
in that book.

You mean the Evenkis?

Yeah. Like, the natives.

Well, if it's them,
they should be able to help us.

Do they look like
they want to help us?

They're outside with weapons.

Well, I'm not gonna
just sit here

- and wait for something bad to happen to
us. - You have to wait. You have to wait.

You have to be quiet.

- I'm not gonna just sit here...
- Shh!

...and wait for them
to come in and waste us all.

No, I'm gonna do something about
it. There must be something.

Neeko. Neeko!

- Neeko, what are you doing?
- No! No. No.

- Who's in charge here? Huh?
- I'm sorry.

So sorry. We're done.

- We're going back.
- Why did you take us?!

- Anyone speak English?! Huh?
- Hey!

- Who's in charge?
- It's okay--

- What's wrong with you?
- Shh!

Stop!

Who are you?

You speak English?

Little. Yes.

Why did you take us?

What's the meaning
to all of this? Huh?

You are trespassers here.

We don't mean to trespass, okay?

We are part of a TV show.

Something went wrong.

We've been looking for help.

We're not from here.
I'm from London.

She's from Israel.
Montenegro. Australia.

Louisiana, okay?

Please. We just want
to get home.

Do you have a phone?
Do you have a radio?

Anything for us
to just get help?

We just want to leave.
We come in peace.

We cannot help you.

We tried to warn you to leave,
but you did not go.

Now you have caused
much trouble for us all.

The Shaman will decide
what we must do with you.

We're going inside.
Let's go inside.

Shaman.
Let's go inside.

We're going.

What does she mean, "Shaman"?

- What is she talking about?
- It's like a leader.

It's like a leader.

So it has to be a guy
higher than her, then?

- That we can speak to.
- Shh! Try do it again--

- Sabina, we have to do something.
- I'll put you down. Don't you dare.

You can't do that shit.

Let's go see it.

Go ahead. I'm gonna
keep checking the lockers.

Come with me. Is that the bird
that Sam saw? Come on.

Okay. I'll be there
in a second.

- Come.
- I'm coming!

Oh, wow.

It's heavy.
It's like a meteorite.

What are we doing in here?

Oh, my God.
Johnny, look at this one.

Can we just
get out of here, please?

I think that's the bird
Sam said he saw.

You gotta help me free it.

What?

He's gonna die in there
if we just leave it there.

I don't want anything
to do with the bird.

- That's all I'm saying.
- What is your problem with the bird?

- I don't have a problem with--
- Help me let it go,

and then-- and then
we can get out of here.

Joyce.

You've gotta be kidding.

Is that a Revealer?

Listen...

I think we should run really
fast now. They're distracted.

- What are you talking about?
- They're all talking. We can run fast.

Run where? Where would we go?
They'd just find us again.

- Come on-- - I can run fast enough.
- We can't leave Irene.

- Irene is already dead probably.
- You don't know that.

Where are you gonna go? They
know where the settlement is.

_

- Shh. Shut up.
- Ridiculous.

Yes.

Thank you.

Who was that girl?

I met her before.

- What?
- I met her before.

- Where?
- In the forest.

- Why didn't you tell us?
- You just know her?

I guess we all have our own
little secrets, don't we?

Are you serious?

Well, she seems to like you.

Maybe you can get her
to help us.

I think she already is helping.

How much wire you need?

Uh, CB communication
is usually an arrangement

of 25 megahertz,

so about one wavelength
is all we're gonna need.

Feet. How many feet?
Feet, feet.

40.

40 feet. You got it.

No way.

Sam!

Yeah?

Why the hell is this here?

Sam, do you know
what it says here?

What does it say?

"Primate." Uh,

"Primate Studies..."

"Primate Studies
Test Group A."

Test Group A?

Didn't it say Test Group C
at the settlement?

- It did.
- So what? They're studying us?

They must be.

These are Skinner boxes.

What's a Skinner box?

They use them in
behavioral stimuli experiments.

Like, it's a risk-reward thing.

Like, if an animal
does something good,

it gets rewarded...

- We're not fucking animals.
- ...but if it does something bad,

- it gets shocked.
- Why are they studying us?

I don't know why
they're doing that.

They could be, though.

Why would they leave us here?

Wait a sec. Those--
those scientists in there?

Were they studying us?
Those dead guys?

Listen, listen, we got more
important things to worry--

Why were they killed?

- We have more important things to talk--
- What's more important than that?

- Those people are--
- Daniel came up with an idea.

- I got an idea to get out of here.
- ...that we can make a loop antenna.

- Right? A loop antenna.
- Yeah.

Then we can get
the radio to go.

We get wire. We hook it up.
We can get a signal out.

We're arguing about
a bunch of bullshit.

- What's the idea? What do we do?
- Why don't we go? Let's go.

Because you're
the one who's talking.

- Let's just get the wire.
- Take it easy. Take it easy.

- I'm just trying to figure out what I need
to do. - We're arguing about stupid stuff.

- Get wire.
- Hey. I got it, dad.

Help me free the bird,
and then we get wire.

Joyce, enough with the bird.

Is this the Shaman coming?

What is he doing?

Those mushrooms are poisonous.

The mushrooms,
they allow him to see--

to see what will happen.

And then he will know
what to decide.

So when you eat mushrooms,
you can see the future?

Yes.

Our friend ate these once,

and she was, like,
hallucinating.

She almost died.

He is a holy man.

He can eat them.
Others cannot.

But I...

Is he okay?

Yes.

What the hell?

Is that normal?

- Is that good or no?
- I cannot say.

Oh, my God,
he didn't look happy at all.

Is he getting a message
from the spirits?

Whatever it was,
it wasn't good.

Did you see his eyes?

Hey. What's going on?
Do you know what's going on?

_

- They're gonna hurt us?
- Do they want to hurt us?

- I like you guys.
- No. No, no. Of course they won't hurt us.

No. What's your name?

Sasha.

Sasha. That's a beautiful name.

Who are these people?
That woman-- is she your mother?

Can you tell us...

Shh!

_

_

- Can you under--
- Can you tell us--

- Shh. Just keep quiet.
- Don't scare her. Don't scare her.

_

I can't wait to put my hands
on those friends of yours.

What friends?

Those producer friends.

Producers?
They're not my friends.

Just hired me for a job.

I forgot. Everything's
just a job to you.

What do you mean?

Nothin'.

Just say it. What do--
what do you mean?

I just...
I saw those instructions

- at the base camp, okay?
- What instructions?

Instructions that said,
"Romance Johnny"

"Pretend you're interested."
"Start a relationship with him."

- God, Johnny, does that really matter
right now? - Make me look like a fool.

Yeah, it does matter.

Shh.

Come now.

Come what?

Come!

Why can't she tell us in here?

- We have to go.
- Come now.

What is it?

He says that you are
to leave here.

We will take you
over the ridge.

There are white men there.
They can help you.

But... you must leave
this place.

You are banished from here.

You must never return.

Don't worry about that.
We won't.

Thank you so much.

Can we see our friend?
Please?

Sasha. Show them.

Thank you.

Is she okay?

Irene.

Irene? Hey.

Oh, my God.

Hey.

You guys are here.

Neeko and Sabina.

How are you?

I feel so much better.

You've got all
the color back in your face.

Your fever is gone.
It's gone.

How's your leg?

It's a lot better.

- Can I see it?
- Yeah.

- Oh, wow.
- Oh, God.

How is that possible?

They kept putting
this stuff on it.

Healing herbs.

- What?
- Your people?

My people put them on her leg
to make it better.

They helped her.

Yeah.

Where's, uh...
Where are the others?

We haven't seen them.

But, um, I'm sure they're fine.

But the Evenki, they said

they're gonna take us
to safety.

They said they know
where some people are.

What?

Mm-hmm.

So that... that means...
we're gonna go home?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, my gosh.

Do you wanna sit up?

Yeah.

Thank you, Neeko.

Irene, there's something

we should tell you.

We need to tell her.

You remember when...
Natalie left us?

She didn't make it.

We found her body
out in the snow.

What?

Yeah.

We don't know what happened,

but Annie and I--
we had a ceremony for her

and we said good-bye.

We don't know what happened.

Aah!

Look. Look.

Sasha!

- What do you see?
- What's out there?

- Oh, my God. Do you see that?
- What?

- There's blood everywhere.
- What? Who?

One of the Evenkis.

He got hurt right here.

We heard this horrible scream
last night.

With what?
I didn't hear a gunshot,

I didn't hear... I mean,
what's attacking him?

Whatever it was, it was close.

You sure I got enough wire?

You said you needed it
for the whole roof.

No. We don't need
that much.

I was wrong about that.

It's actually good--
we don't need hardly as much.

Well, be careful.

I will.

Is it okay there?

Yeah.

Think she'll be okay, Sam?

- Irene?
- Yeah.

I'm telling you,
Irene's gonna be fine.

She's in good hands.

You need to stop
worrying about her

and you need to focus on that.

I promise you
she's gonna be okay. Okay?

- Okay.
- She's gonna be fine.

I never lied to you
about anything, okay?

- Really?
- Yeah. I was honest about everything!

- You even lied about your name! - You
were flirting-- What are you talking about?

- You were flirting with everyone in
the camp. - What-- Like who?

- Like Esther.
- Esther?

- Yeah. And you're a rodeo rider
from North Carolina? - Esther?

- Yes, I am.
- Really? What type of bulls do you ride?

- All kinds.
- All kinds? You know what?

That's the biggest bullshit.

They do background checks
on everyone.

You don't ride any bulls.

And what do you want
the money for, huh?

You seemed pretty adamant
about getting the money.

It's none of your business,
okay?

You're right.

Miljan, do you see anything?

Nothing.

Esther.

I found this on your bed
when Irene disappeared.

You wanna explain it?

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

- Okay.
- Guys. Guys.

What happened
to that man out there?

He was attacked.

By who?

Our word is Mangini.

They are the ones of the valley.
The Valley Men.

Is it another tribe?

They are our enemies.

Many bad things have happened

since the ancient truce
was violated...

by you.

By us?

You crossed into
their territory.

And now they blame us.

Rest now.

We leave at first light.

It is too dangerous to go now.

Uh, we need to go
back to our camp first.

For what?
There's nothing there.

Yes, there is.

We-- we have to go back
and... get all our supplies.

I mean, what if we got stuck
out there?

We will go to your camp.

It is on the way
to where we will take you.

Thank you. Thanks.

Thank you so much.

Johnny, please. I just wanna
be alone, okay?

Just...

- Joyce. Joyce, Joyce...
- I just wanna be alone, okay?

I just wanna be alone.

It's okay.

Just breathe.

Just breathe.

How'd you get so smart?

You're, like,
some kind of a genius.

Little Rain Man.
Little MacGyver.

Sam, I just... I don't know.
I read a lot.

I once read a book.

How was that for you, Sam?

You didn't hurt yourself,
did you?

Had a lot of pictures in it.

You like looking
at girlie magazines?

- Girlie magazine?
- Yeah.

Like what?

Daniel!

- You okay? Huh?
- Ugh.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

You sure?

Guys! Guys, guys.

Daniel's been hurt. He's...

Hurry. Come on.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Be careful.

- Daniel, sit down for a little while.
Relax. - Let me see.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

I think so.

Guys, we're so close
to being done, okay?

I mean, literally,
all we have to do

is just one more step,
and we can send that signal.

Let's just get it done.
You cool with that?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

When I first met Daniel,
I was like,

"You should be in school.
So what are you doing here?"

Wow.

He's amazing.

He's the... the David.

You know? David and Goliath?

He's got more balls
than I've ever had.

He's a skinny little kid,

but he's smart,

and he's got courage.

So that woman is not
your mother, right?

Who is she?

She looks after me.

What about your mom?

I don't remember much
about my mother, but...

I do remember my father.

Do you know where
your parents are from?

Well, my father was
an American scientist.

He taught Merilik
and her husband

how to speak English.

He used to live
with the people here.

But...

What?

He's gone.

I'm sorry.

Merilik has taken care of me
ever since.

I have a son your age.
I'll show you.

Look. I keep his picture
in a locket.

You see? He's... he's cute.

Where is he now?

He's back home.

I have to go back for him.

Maybe one day,
when I'm out of this

and I go back home,
maybe you can meet him.

I think you'll like him.

This tribe...

It's not a tribe, man.

It's the Valley Men.
They're not a tribe.

- Oh, my God.
- Whatever it is,

it's got these guys
really spooked.

Yeah. You think they could have
done that to Natalie?

Maybe. I don't know.

But all I know is that
we can't trust these guys.

Can we trust Sabina?

I trust Sabina
more than I trust these guys.

Even after you know

that she knew
who that little girl is?

All I'm saying
is that we need to be careful,

'cause we're not exactly
safe yet.

We don't have any other choice.

We have to trust them
for now, at least.

- Right. What else are we gonna do?
- We need to leave this place.

That's for sure.

They don't want us here.
They want us out.

Sasha! Come. It is cold.

Hey. Hey, hey. Right there.
Whatever you just did.

Thank you.

- Delicious.
- Thank you.

May I ask what your name is?

My name is Merilik.

My name's Neeko.

Is your friend okay?

I do not know.

The Shaman is with him now.

His suffering is for all of us,
for our sins.

I don't understand.
What do you mean, "sins"?

The punishment--
it's come again.

One hundred years ago

Ogdy punished our people
for their sins

by flattening the land

and lighting the sky on fire.

That's what we saw.

We saw that in the sky
a few nights ago.

Many have stopped believing
in the old ways.

Now it is happening again.

What is this Ogdy?

Ogdy-- he is our God.

Thank you, thank you.

Okay. Look. Camera guy helped me
out with a list.

- This is written out phonetically.
- Mm-hmm.

Take your time. Nice and slow.
Go through the list.

It doesn't matter,
any particular order.

- Okay.
- Make sure you key the mic when you speak.

- Mm-hmm.
- And then let go, wait for a response.

I got it, Sam.
It's not that difficult.

All right. So just... slow.

You got it.

I lost my wife.

Don't have much family.

But, uh, the kids
at the school--

'cause, you know, I was
a former cage fighter,

and then I started
working with kids.

I can't wait to see 'em again.

Now that we got a working radio,

I hope that I will.

I was really lucky
because I had...

these guys
that really helped me get here,

because honestly I didn't think
I was gonna make it.

And Johnny...

Johnny's even sweeter
than I thought.

There was a moment where I just
wanted to give up.

But at least we're lucky enough.

We have food. We have shelter.

So right now I'm just hoping
and praying

that we're gonna go home soon.

- Are you ready?
- Yes.

Guys, let's go.

Sasha. Come.

We should at least thank her.

Thank you.

Go!

Daniel.

You been here all night?

Yeah.

Didn't sleep at all?

Come on. Go--
go rest. I'll take over.

No. No, I want to stay.

No, I'll take over for
a little bit. Go rest.

I don't wanna miss it.
I don't wanna miss it.

Did you get anything?

No. I haven't heard a thing.

You want some more coffee?

Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks.

It's just so weird to be here.

I know. It's eerie.

Guys, bring anything you find
that's gonna be useful, okay?

I feel a lot better.
Thank you so much.

Annie.

Sasha. Not too far.

Esther, you need
a hand with that?

No, I'm fine.
This thing's not heavy.

- Guys, did we get all the food?
- Yeah.

Your food, you mean?
Your stash? I got it.

I'll help you out with that.

I knew we were gonna
be good friends, huh?

I told you.

I don't ever want
to see this place again.

It's strange.
For me,

it feels like
I'm leaving my home.

Well, that's it.
We're leaving the game.

Just us six.

But no one wins any money.

I don't consider myself a hero.

I just wanna get home.

I want to get these people
home with me, but...

You know, I got-- I got people
at home that I care about

that I... that I need
to get back to.

You know, it sounds selfish,
but I...

I'm not gonna make
an idiot decision,

you know, where it's gonna
risk my life

or... or the people
that I care about.

That just, you know...
doesn't make sense, you know?

I'm not a superhero.

Oh, my God. Guys!

What's going on?

- What do they know, guys?
- Why have the dogs stopped?

Why'd the dogs stop?

What's that?

Guys, just be careful.

Get away from that, quickly!

We must go!

- What is that?
- Why?

This place is cursed.
We cannot go this way.

Sasha! On the sled!

Why's she freaking out?

Well, she said it's cursed.

Can I please ask you
a question?

What was that weird thing,
the round thing

in the woods
that we saw before?

There are some places
in the woods

that have strange effects
on the mind.

You forget where you have gone
and become lost.

Many people have died
in the woods this way.

That is why they call this
the Valley of Death.

Not even the animals
dare to live here.

- You got somebody?
- What happened?

- Change. Change. Change. Change.
- He said he had a signal?

- He actually talked to somebody?
- He had a signal. He had a signal.

- He talked to somebody?
- Shh. Shh. Shh.

Change-- change the channel.

Oh, my God, there's somebody there!

The location.

He needs to know where we are.

Go get it.
We need the location.

Why do we stop?

Why are we stopped again?

This is as far
as we can take you.

- Why?
- What?

Why?

There are some places
the Evenki do not go.

Beyond this line is
the territory of the Valley Men.

You must go alone.

Through the trees,

straight on through
to the mountain peak.

You will find your people.

If you leave now,
you will arrive by nightfall.

I know this sign.

What does it mean?

It is the symbol
of the Valley Men.

It marks the line
between our territories.

You violated the law

when you camped
at the edge of their territory.

That is why we tried
to scare you away.

I'm sorry, but we cannot
take you any further.

You said you would
take us to our people.

If you follow the path,

you will find them there.

Irene, you okay to walk?

I have to.

You sure?
You don't need any help?

Please.
Can we take some--

We need something. We have one rifle.

- We're not gonna make it by ourselves.
- We don't have anything.

Can we take some weapon?

Can we take this-- some spear
with us or something?

Can we take?
Can we take this with us?

Please?

Forget about it. Just come on.

I am sorry I cannot help you.

If it wasn't for you,
I wouldn't be alive right now.

So, um... thanks.

Be safe.

Sasha.

Oh. Just a second, please.
Please. Just...

Take care of yourself, okay?
You promise me?

Sasha. Come.

Are you guys trying
to scare us again?

What do you mean?

The monster feet.

No. Those are the foot
of the Valley Men.

We wear them
to make their tracks

so they do not follow us.

Let's go.

- Hurry.
- Okay. Let's go.

Let me see
where we are, Johnny.

- Yeah, Johnny. Yeah--
- This is it!

Daniel, Daniel, do it!

Can you tell them
to stay there, please?

Sam, tell him. Sam, tell him.

Right here? Yeah.

No, that's not right.

- It's gotta be exact.
- In Russian. In Russian.

Come on, Daniel.

Write this down.
Hurry up.

- Okay. That's it.
- That's it? Okay.

Right there.

What's that mean?
Why aren't they talking back?

Sam, why aren't
they talking back?

Give him a chance to respond!

Why aren't they talking back?

Give me a chance.

- Give him a second.
- He lost the signal.

More. More. Come on.

A little more.

- Please. Please.
- Okay.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...

Hey! They're coming!

They're coming! They're coming!

Here's a look at what's
coming up on Siberia.
