Silverpoint (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Episode #1.6 - full transcript

We have a phone here if ever you
wish to call... My foster parents?

Good luck with that.

Hey, Louis, we should get together
today. He said he's busy.

The crazy stuff about the woods you
tell all the newcomers - tell me.

If I leave, you don't have to fall,
and that thing won't work.

You won't disappear.

We activated it.

Show me.

Just draw on the light.

Don't!

ECHOING: No, don't!



Meg!

HE GRUNTS ANGRILY

LOW RUMBLING GROWL

RUMBLING GROWL

I feel sick.
He didn't even know.

She vanished, just like those other
kids. Don't say that.

Did anyone see Elliot today?
I thought I saw him.

Who cares about Elliot?
He dropped me at the lake.

He could have sent Meg
somewhere close by.

We looked everywhere for her.

We need to tell someone.

Your mum and dad aren't going to be
able to do anything.

Not my mum and dad.

We'll call the police,
or someone who knows what to do.



Kaz, maybe Bea's right.

We can't trust authorities.

The only thing they're to
care about is the rock

and what it does, not Meg.

Louis.

He can figure this out.

He knows more about that
thing than any of us.

He came here looking for it.

You, you can get Meg back.
Kaz...

Figure it out.

And you're not telling anyone.
WOMAN: Listen up.

Some of you may have
noticed we're down an attendee.

Er, Meg decided to leave,

but Daniel and I wanted to stave off
any rumours

on the whys and wherefores.

Meg just wasn't ready to be here,

but we're sure she'll be
back next year.

Can I see you in my den now?

Seriously.
It's not what you think.

So? Tell me.

SHE SIGHS
I can't.

Not right now.

Look, whatever's going on with
your dad, or Dragonfly,

don't shut me and Alice out
because of what happened between us.

OK? I'm worried about you.

I didn't say anything.
Just making sure.

MAN: Daniel...

I want to get out of here.

You'll probably follow me anyway.

Liam, come on,
we've got to get back.

It's my favourite hoodie.

I'll catch up with you later.

RUMBLING GROWL

WHISTLE BLOWS

OK, everyone, into your groups.

Can you? Get her back?

Daniel and Steph think that
Meg went back home,

and Meg's parents
think that she stayed.

We still have time.

Can you get her back?

HE SIGHS

Where have you been?

I had a lot to think about.

Hey!

Look, what you saw, it wasn't
anything.

I was imagining things?
Meg didn't go, ffft, into thin air?

The thing in the ground?

How about these?

Where did you...?

Look, you have to keep this to
yourself until we can get Meg back.

If this gets out...

I know where it is, and I have the
codes to make it work.

Elliot!

What are you going to do?
I'll make it right.

Meg!

Meg!

Meg!

DISTANT BOOMING

ROARING

It's a
lot easier sneaking out of camp

when you're with
the McConnells' daughter.

How am I the enemy by wanting
to tell someone?

You just feel bad about what
happened

and you want it to be
someone else's problem.

No.
Meg was trying to stop us.

She was worried about us
and we just sent her...somewhere.

Do you know how that feels?
I didn't know you did feel things.

She's out there someplace.

Alone. You can't give up on her.

What is it?

Nothing.

Where is this place?

Home.

Meg?

Meg?

Meg! Hey!

You...live here?

Summers at the camp,
the rest of the time, this is home.

I sneak back sometimes
to watch some TV.

Have you got any video games?
I don't play video games.

Course you don't.

What's all this?

I've got some numbers we can try.
People that might help us.

You're unbelievable.
This is why you came back?

I could have come here without you
and called anyway.

We need to tell someone
who knows what to do.

It's an alien rock -
nobody knows what to do.

Do you trust anyone over 20?
Not really, no.

Louis's freaking out.

Glen is...Glen.

We're out of our depth.

If you care about getting Meg back,
we need to tell someone now.

What are you doing out here
all alone?

Did you swim out here?

I saw something. I got scared,
so I swam.

Something scary? Really?

Like, an animal? Where?

You don't believe me.

No, no, no, I just...

There's something out there...

..something bad in the woods.

Hello?

Anyone home?

Anybody in there?

I know you're watching.

Hello?

Hello? Anyone home?

You're Elliot, Louis's friend.

I wouldn't go that far. And like you
don't have a file on me.

Why would I have a file on...?
Never mind.

Look, whoever you suppose I am,
it's not what you think.

And yet here you are.

What is it you want to show me?

That thing in the ground,
they powered it up,

and I'm betting you'd like
to see how they did it.

Unless that's not why you're here?

DISTANT ROAR

DISTANT ROAR

Louis will fix it.

And do what? Try something else and
then Glen disappears forever?

Meg has not gone forever.

We've no idea what that thing
in the ground is

or what it could do.
We're just kids.

Maybe you are.

I know it hasn't been easy for you.

I read my dad's notes about you,
about you being in foster care.

Always running away.

Here it comes. Always in
trouble with the police.

This is just about you not
trusting the authorities.

Why don't you go to your dad?

Why are we here and not
in his office using his phone?

Things are a bit...

He knows. He always knew.

I mean, he knew those kids
who vanished.

Why would he build a camp here?
I..

You don't trust him.

What do you keep looking at?

Kaz?

Kaz?

Is there a way out the back?

Are you being serious?
Where are you going?

Maybe I do have problems with
authority, but you're wrong.

Fine, whatever.

Me saying Louis will fix it is
because, even though

I'd never admit it to his face,
Louis is really smart,

and he WILL think of a way to
get Meg back.

I show you how it works
and you make sure I'm a part of it.

Help me out with this, yeah?

Where is it?

HE SCREAMS

HE GROANS

I am so sorry. What are you
playing at?! What is this?!

You'd better stick to your promise.

You're one of us now.

What is going on, Louis?

You're going to answer
some questions.

My friend Meg disappeared, and I
need to know how to get her back.

Karen?
KNOCK ON DOOR

Karen Nole? Is that you?

Karen? Shut your face.
KNOCK ON DOOR

Who is it? Is there another way out
of here?

Is it social services? Key.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

If you're in trouble,
I might be able to help.

Unbelievable. Wow.

I'm going to have to
applaud you, Louis,

for making me look like an idiot.

Oh, and the actual rock?
It's over there. Yeah.

Is Elliot still up there?

Elliot, we do have a file on
you, actually,

and this is going on it.

Is... Is he serious?

DISTANT THUMP

Was that you watching out there
from the woods the whole time?

You could have just asked.

Look, this was the only way
to get the truth.

Look, I'm sorry about Meg, OK?

Maybe if you didn't destroy
my camera,

I could have stopped
it from happening.

Like I saved Glen.

It just seems like you keep
messing up, Louis.

Now, why don't you just get me
out of here...

Not until I get what I want.

Look, where is she? I don't know.

Look, that day in the cabin,

you asked if it contacted me. So?

It put these in our heads...

..and we used it to turn it on.

My friend Meg vanished in the light.

It's all my fault.
That's all I know.

All right.

I'm here to watch.

To give them progress updates,
inform them if it contacted you.

Inform who?

Doesn't matter who. You can't get
Meg back, it's too late.

No, I...

I don't believe that.

RUMBLING

LOUD THUMPING

We could activate it again. I'll tie
a rope round myself and go through.

I can bring Meg back home.

Oh, that's your plan, is it?

Well, it's one of them.
Switch it on again?

Look, what is that thing for?

Where does it send people?

LOUD THUMP

Shh.

THUMPING CONTINUES

GROWLING

Who was that woman?
Are you in trouble?

Didn't read your dad's
notes about it?

She's not supposed to know I'm here.

Go.

Go!

Don't... Don't shove me.

Anyone there?

No. We'll go back to the camp.

Where do you think she's
heading next?

Do you have any bus money?
Bus money?

There isn't another bus for hours.

You're running away.

What about Meg?

What was that?

Elliot's still out there.

Hey. Hey, look at me.

You need to tell me exactly
what happened.

You activated it, the artefact.

The rock.

I told you - Meg disappeared.
Specifically.

I don't know what you're asking.
Did you notice anything else?

Did you see anything else,
before it closed?

I don't think so. Why?

What's going on?

I'll give you a bunk up.
We need to get someplace safe.

We can't just stay here.

Come on.

Come on. All right.

THUNDEROUS ROAR

THUMPING FOOTSTEPS

Kaz?

You should go. Go.

You kept the same car.

All these years.

Well, it's a good car.

Hey, sweetie.

Hey, Mum.

THUMPING FOOTSTEPS

LOUD ROAR

Are you OK?

Yeah, me neither.

We'll be safe in here, yeah?

Before, what did you mean, if I saw
anything else after the light?

It doesn't matter, it can wait.
What did you mean?

That thing out there,
where did it come from?

OK, the four of you,
you sent Meg through it,

and whatever's on the other side...

..they sent something too.
