Silverpoint (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - Episode #1.4 - full transcript

We found something. What?
Something impossible.

Sending through
the first test object.

I'm going to go through later today.

I want to be the first person
ever to teleport!

Glen can't swim!

RADIO CRACKLES

LOUIS OVER RADIO:
Get to the lake! Run!

Where'd he come from?
Look, we don't want any trouble.

DOG BARKS
Otto, quiet!

What have you lot
got yourselves into?

CROWS CAW



That's it?

Yeah.

Here, try.

It seems to only send small stuff
with just two people here,

but careful not to get too close,
though.

How long do you think
this has been here?

What?

How long?

I don't know.

I-I need to go.

Bea!

We can't tell anyone.

You have to promise.

Get back!



PLAYFUL CHATTER

What's going on?

We're not angry, Glen.

And you can always talk to us,
about anything,

if it was some kind of prank.

Was the rest of your group involved?

No, no, nothing like that.

No life jacket, you can't swim.
What were you thinking?

You're lucky he was there.

We're very grateful.

As I say, I just wanted to make sure
he was OK.

From what I saw, you've got
some great friends around you.

Though...I am curious to know

how you managed to get to the middle
of the lake if you can't swim.

What did he want?
To know why I was in the lake.

It's not easy to explain.

I was wearing a safety helmet
and knee pads.

What did you tell him? Nothing.

Do you think he saw me -
how I ended up in the lake?

He was weird.

Like he knows something.

Yeah, it's Louis' girlfriend
we need to worry about.

She's not my g... Look,
Bea's not going to say anything.

About the lake thing,
I know I was pestering you to jump.

What happened, it wasn't your fault.

Yeah... Yes, fine, thanks.
I'll catch you later.

Where's he off to?

And where's Meg today?

FAINT PLAYFUL CHATTER

PLAYFUL SHRIEK AND LAUGHTER

SHE SIGHS
Are you OK?

I don't think she's coming.

If you'd seen that look
on her face...

We shouldn't have come.

I wanted to tell Bea from the start.
She's my friend, too.

She's had a crush on you for years
and I just stomped all over that.

Why did you have to flirt with her?

Huh!

Is there anyway I'm going to survive
this conversation? Nope.

Wow!

Get away from there!

Don't ever run off like that! Ever!

I'm sorry, Bea.

I was just scared I'd lost you.

This is going to be our home
every summer.

But there's just one rule, OK?

You stay this side of the woods.

It's not safe back there.

Deal?

OK. All right.

Room for one more?

Oh!

When it worked, me and your dad used
to go out on dates in this thing.

I don't need to know that. Aha!

Shouldn't you be at archery
with Finn and Alice?

Did something happen
between you lot?

They're together.

Together together.

Oh!

Well, they are a bit older than you.

And I'm still a child.

No, that's not what I said.

Ever since I was little,
Dad has told me

not to go to that part of the woods,
where the fence is.

That's right. There are pylons
out there. It's not safe.

Just pylons, nothing else?

That's all there is?

What's this all about, Bea?

Look, I know this place
asks a lot of you.

SHE SIGHS

Take that off! Now!

I didn't mean to...
I don't care! It's not yours!

You don't just take
other people's things!

I know.

Sorry, I shouldn't have done that.

Wait, Meg...

What is all this stuff?

Where'd you get it?

Meg?

DOG BARKS

Come on, old son.

CRACK!

You shouldn't be following people!
You were following him!

Just go back to camp. You owe me.
I lent you those walkie-talkies.

Now, what are you up to? Quiet!

This is close to where I found
the security camera.

DOOR OPENS

Yeah, sorry about that.
You keep breaking up.

Hello?

Can you hear me?

Have you seen him before?
Yeah. He was at the camp earlier.

I mean, before!

He's not local. Probably government!

You're on to something, aren't you?

You've found something.

You're...you're going in there?

What's going on? Knock first.

Louis has been lying to us.

DOOR SLAMS SHUT

How long have you had all this?
Since the lake.

Louis has been acting like that
thing was his since day one.

He came here looking for it.

Look! Four kids disappeared
in these woods 23 years ago,

never to be seen again.

He knew and still let Glen jump.

Yeah, I know what we agreed,
I just need to be sure.

BEEPING

KEYS BEEP

ALARM WAILS

As I said...
BEEPING

ALARM WAILS
Is anyone there?!

Is anybody there?
Please! I need help!

Louis, no-one's coming to help you
until you tell us who you are

and what you're really doing
at this camp.

Wait! What are you talking about?!

Meg found your secret files, Louis!

You let Glen jump in that thing

knowing the other kids vanished
in it years ago.

That's why I wanted to jump!

I tried to stop Glen,
but he kept on insisting!

And we tested it!

On a chicken, not a human being!

DOG SNARLS

Kaz, I can explain!

Is that an alarm?!

DISTANT ALARM WAILS

DOG BARKS

This isn't the best time to be
having this conversation!

I don't care! Kaz, please!

DOG BARKS

He sounded really scared.

What if he really is in trouble?

It was definitely an alarm.

ALARM WAILS

WAILING STOPS

I think it's time we had a talk.

Ignore him. He won't hurt you.

Look, I'm not the enemy, Louis.

Even though out of context, this
probably doesn't do me any favours.

You've been watching us...all
this time?

Who are you?!
I'm just here to do a job, right?

My name's Fisher.

Louis? Are you...are you down there?

DOG BARKS

Louis?

That thing you found in the woods,

has it made contact?

Louis, has it made contact?!

What exactly are you doing?

Trying to break into
my dad's office.

Oh!

Bea, we need to at least
talk about it.

About what you saw.
To make yourselves feel better?

Are we going to ignore the fact

she was trying to break into
Daniel's office?

You probably laughed about it.

Bea...of course we didn't.

What were you doing out there with
the walkie-talkie and a chicken?

Finn!

How long have you two...?

Not long.

It happened. It's a thing.

And we're just going to have
to figure this out.

I have no idea what I'm supposed
to be looking for.

Why are we searching
your dad's office?

It's easier than asking.

Besides, I promised not to tell.

Tell what?

You never wondered why my dad
doesn't let anyone go

beyond the fenced area of the woods?

That there are pylons out there?
I mean, seriously!

What are you...? Is this anything
to do with what happened at camp?

Not that again! It was really weird!

My dad built that fence himself.

I think it was to hide something.

Or protect us from it.

Bea?

What is it?

I don't know. Tidy this stuff up.

Are we good now? No!

I had a feeling you'd be here.

I should be mad at you!

You let me jump into that thing,
Louis.

I thought we were friends.

We are friends!

What are you doing?

And where were you?
We heard an alarm!

Sh!

That guy from the lake?
I think he works for the government.

But he saved me. He has a dog.

Does the dog work for
the government?!

Why would a dog work for
the government?

They've been watching us!

Maybe listening, too.

They know we've found it.

They know we've found it.

I'm sorry.
We came here looking for Glen.

Is she wearing your T-shirt?

Just for today. Come on.

He put your life in danger, Glen.
He lied to us.

Wait!

When everything started, I thought

if I told you the other kids
vanished 23 years ago, you'd...

..you'd get scared and you
wouldn't want to keep digging.

That's why I didn't want to say
anything.

That doesn't make it right.

It was my dad's.

The folder, the alien abductions,
this place.

He loved that kind of stuff.

We'd talk about where those kids
could have disappeared to.

Another dimension or something.

Look, I don't know if
he actually believed in it

or if he wanted me to believe
there was something else out there.

And then he got really ill, and...

Well, you know, so...

Sorry.

So I got my mum to send me here.

Not that she knows the real reason.

That's why I didn't want to share
this.

I was wrong.

But this...

..this is ours!

If the government know about this,
why haven't they taken it?

Fisher asked me if it made contact.

When I touched it that time,
that, that...thing, it...

..it...it put something in my head.

And you're only telling us this now?

I'm trying to be honest.

It was some type of code,
or language, maybe.

It had to mean something.

Glen, don't!

Are you all right?

Did I hold on longer than Louis?

Who cares about that?!

It's not a language,
it's...a symbol.

What are you doing? I don't know.

It can't be this easy.
