Siren (2018–…): Season 3, Episode 8 - 'Til Death Do Us Part - full transcript

Ryn, Ben, and Maddie must protect Bristol Cove from Tia's army; Ben's injections produce unexpected results; Xander juggles best man duties at Calvin's wedding while also helping Helen.

Previously, on Siren...

Ooh!

Will you marry me?

Oh, hell, yeah.

What is "marry me"?

When two people love each other

and they want to spend the
rest of their lives together,

they get married.

You've been training, huh?

Yeah.

Something like that.



Donna's spirit keeps visiting me.

Do you know what she wants?

Of course.

She's not at peace.

I was held by the Russian government

for the past ten years.

Another tribe has started
a war in the water.

Their leader will not stop

until every tribe joins her or dies.

You help us, we will help you.

_

_

_

_



_

_

Aah!

_

_

That was...

That was different.

Did I hurt you?

Yeah.

Sorry.

No, no.

In a good way.

Like mating in the water.

Maybe it's the stem cells.

They are doing this to you?

I think so.

It's time for more.

Does it hurt?

No.

No, it feels good.

You know, after our swim,

you know, it got me thinking.

You come on land a few
weeks at a time, right?

What if I can stay down there longer?

I mean, like, a lot longer.

Xander.

What's going on?

That's gotta be Tia.

- She's headed north.
- Robb's tribe will fight her.

We will have Maddie call Robb.

Warn them.

Whoo!

Ten centerpieces.

These are carnations.

I ordered ranunculus.

You didn't check?

I thought I did.

Well, return to sender.

Baby, no, no, no, no. We're one day out.

These are so pretty.

Guys, aren't these pretty?

- Beautiful.
- Gorgeous.

Idiots.

Let's get a lady's opinion, hm?

Looks like red seaweed.

Okay, fine.

Going back.

Okay, this Tia situation.

You gotta loop in the
military, like, now.

They will talk to us?

I mean, they already
came looking for Ben.

- When I was gone?
- Yeah.

What did they want?

I don't know, maybe they think

you've got something to do with Kyle.

I mean, he's got all those texts.

Maybe they think I killed him.

Then go clear your name
while you're at it.

No, they're not on our side, Xan.

They never will be.

A hate-filled mermaid is
on a violent rampage, okay?

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Xander is right.

Hope will live under Tia's
rule if we don't stop her.

We must ask the military for help.

It's her.

No question.

Why would the Russians
sink Canadian ships?

This doesn't have anything
to do with the Russians.

Except that she's one of them.

- What, Russian?
- An operative.

She's like me. From the water.

You didn't know?

What makes you think
that she's an operative?

She got in here undetected.

Accessed secure data.

What kind of data?

Everything she accessed...

Was from our studies of Ryn.

She got onto your network?

We're relocating our
most sensitive research

to a more secure location.

What exactly did she
take from your computers?

She deleted an audio file.

The recording of your echo chamber.

She's getting rid of the antidote.

- We were right.
- About what?

She's going to use the song.

- Use how?
- She recruited many tribes.

They will all sing to people.

They will control their minds.

- On a mass scale.
- And without the recording,

there's no cure.

We need to notify central command.

Yes, sir.

Hey, wait, where are you going?

You've been very helpful.
We'll be in touch.

They have no idea what
they're up against.

Wait.

We already have a weapon
that can protect our coast

if she gets close.

Remember when Klesco
used the sonic cannon?

Your tribe was disoriented.

Some of them got lost. Others died.

That could hurt other marine life.

We'd only use it if she attacks.

Okay, but we'd need to retrieve it,

and she controls those waters now.

I will get it.

What about Hope?

If we use it, it could hurt her.

She is safe.

She's still far away.

We must do it. For her.

_

_

They knew we were coming.

The Silver-Eyeds were ready for us.

Ryn.

She got to them first.

That's why we're here,

to find allies on this
side of the world.

We must gather strength.

Then go back.

They get suspicious when
you do not drink here.

Weak.

This is why we lost.

So, all of them.

Now.

_

_

_

That's mine.

They made my song a weapon.

Who?

The Russians.

Maybe we don't need to go north.

Ten lace tablecloths.

Right. Something borrowed.

Check.

That's not really how
that tradition works,

but I'm glad it checks a box.

Tell Janine some of these
are older than I am,

so be gentle.

What's happening with Donna?

I mean, she still poltergeisting you?

Her spirit won't rest...

Until she's properly
buried in the ocean.

So... so her body is still in that lab?

You see my dilemma.

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

But I'll figure it out.

Don't let me hold you up.
I know you're on the clock.

Yeah, I got to finish this playlist.

Oh, I put a little
Sinatra on there for you.

You need to get people up
out of their chairs, right?

A little pit bull?

Some Kesha?

- Kesha?
- Kesha.

Okay. That's not what I
pegged you for, but...

Never underestimate a higher life form.

Oh, my God. Seriously?

I'm so glad you're all okay.

Robb? Robb?

- Lost him.
- What happened?

There was a battle.

With Tia's army?

But Robb's tribe fought. And won.

This is good.

It's great. It means they're vulnerable.

It also means she knows we're
all in this together now.

She'll probably be heading back here.

What else can I do?

Remind me never to get married again.

Believe me, me and my future
ex-wife are eloping to Vegas.

Chris?

Hey, Xan.

Hey. Is everything okay?

Look, man, I didn't
know who else to call.

What's going on?

They're shutting this place down.

- Wait, what?
- Yeah.

I got to move out.

I don't know if I can do
this on my own, you know?

Okay, when?

Today.

Today? Like, "today," today?

Yeah.

Can you come get me?

Dude, Calvin is getting
married, like, tomorrow.

You know what?

Yeah. I'll be there.

Look, I really appreciate it, man.

Yeah.

This is where the cannon fell.

I'm ready.

We'll watch the sonar
for activity nearby.

But please be careful.

- We don't know where Tia is.
- Okay, yes.

You'll be okay?

I'm very fast.

If we see anything, I'll come in.

_

I can't believe it's you.

Believe it.

I waited for your call.
I thought you were dead.

I worried they would be monitoring you.

They never suspected me.

How do they think I got out?

They think it was Alexei.

The one who cut your song out of you.

You were the only one who cared.

What do they do to a man

who they think helped a mermaid escape?

Work him 20 hours a day,
like a gulag inmate.

Watch his every move.

Then they mustn't learn about you.

Meet me upstairs in an hour.

- You see anything?
- Not much.

How fast do you think
Tia's army could get here?

Depends how badly she was beaten.

Robb really came through.

- Shit. There's something here.
- What? was it one of them?

It's alone. Maybe it's a guard?

- I'm going in.
- Be careful.

Ben!

You guys are really closing
up shop in a hurry, huh?

- Where's the fire?
- There's no fire.

- Yeah, of course not.
- When Uncle Sam says go, we go.

Plain and simple.

Used to date a girl who worked here.

Nothing she said was
ever plain or simple.

Chris.

Hey, man.

- You came.
- Yeah, I told you I would.

Dr. Katz wants to see
you before you leave.

To go over your meds.

They always lock you in like that,

or are they just keeping
me out of trouble?

I actually don't know.

I'm just glad you're coming home, man.

This place really creeps me out.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You can stay with me at my
mom's house for a little while,

and maybe we can get you back
out on a boat at some point.

Yeah, I don't think anyone's
going to want to hire me.

Of course they will.

Hey, look, a bunch of guys will
be at the wedding tomorrow.

There's nothing like an
open bar to remind the guys

that you're still a fisherman.

So who's getting married?

Calvin.

And Janine?

Right.

Hey.

We'll figure it out.

All right?

Yeah.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Ben, how did you do that?

You were down there almost
15 minutes with no air tank.

Ben, what is it?

Ben?

Ben?

- Ben!
- Ben!

He can't breathe. Help me turn him.

I'm okay.

What did you do?

Were you trying to become one?

No.

I don't know.

And, Ryn, you knew about this?

- I thought it was good.
- You could've died.

Nothing bad happened to
my mom when she took them.

That was a last resort
to keep her alive.

- Ryn, you need to see a doctor.
- Maddie...

We don't know what could be
happening inside you now.

How would I explain what happened?

Listen, I'll take care of it, okay?

Now, we need to fix the cannon.

Tia could be here soon.

Yeah. I'll fix it.

You need to go home now,

and you need to swear to me

you'll get rid of those cells.

Okay.

I will go with Ben.

You two alone is what got us into this

in the first place.

I'll make sure he's okay.

I promise.

Please.

You have to stop.

All right, look like we're close.

Whoa! Hey, dude. What's the hurry?

It's not like there's
a fire and all, right?

Doc's ready.

I'll be here.

I've dreamed of this
since I came to Berzin.

Me too.

If only I could sing to you.

Did they figure out how to
use my song after I left?

It's okay. You can tell me.

I won't be angry with you.

Yes.

Alexei made a weapon from it.

Those 20-hour days paid off.

I'm sorry.

I would have stopped them if I could.

I know.

I believe you.

But what use are you if you can't?

You all good with the meds?

Finish packing.

All right, we're all set now.

Yeah, Chris?

There you go.

When Uncle Sam says go, we go.

You want to give us a hand?

Ryn, Ryn, what are you doing?

- Getting rid of them.
- Hey, hey. No, no.

- Ryn, wait. Not now.
- They hurt you.

- I promised Maddie.
- I'm fine now.

See?

Just like you, after you transform.

It was painful at first,

but now I'm fine now.

I don't understand.

One day, you're not going
to be able to transform.

You'll have to stay
in the water for good.

Please.

We need those.

What is it?

I went to go get Chris,

and I found something at the facility.

Oh, Xander.

It isn't Donna?

I hope so.

Otherwise I just violated,
like, nine federal laws.

Oh, and just in case

these were haunting you too...

What?

That's your family.

From the graveyard.

Oh, my God.

I don't know how you did it,

but you're a genius.

Oh, and a very good friend.

Yeah, that's not too bad
for a lower life form, huh?

Not bad at all.

It will be a long time.

It took Robb many
years to stop changing.

We don't know how long it'll be for you.

It could be tomorrow.

Look, I know it sounds crazy,

but maybe I could go back with you.

Live with me?

I don't know.

Maybe.

Ben...

Maybe I was just doing them too fast.

What if I slow down?

It's too dangerous.

It's our only chance.

No.

Water isn't the only way.

What do you mean?

I will live on land.

With you.

On land?

You mean, stay human?

Yes. Here. Together.

Human.

What about Hope?

She can be with us.

As a family.

I can't ask you to do that.

It is my choice.

When it is time...

I will be human with you.

Okay.

Why didn't you tell me sooner

that my sister was not at peace?

You're dealing with so much right now.

I wanted to bring you solutions,

not more problems.

Thank you.

Before you take her to the water,

do you want to say something?

My mother and I had a
special place in the water.

The last time I saw her, we went there.

We hunted.

Mother.

Daughter.

Together.

Now, we will bring her back home.

She belongs in the water.

With you.

This is officially a cell
phone-free zone, folks.

Okay? Not silenced, off.

Okay? So says our favorite
bride on her big day.

Hey.

- Hey, Jerry.
- Hey, Maddie.

Good luck officiating.

Oh, uh, no phones at
the party either, okay?

Janine wants us fully present.

Yeah, I got the cannon set
up, just off the MRC docks.

You talk to your fisherman buddies?

Oh, yeah. Any unusually
large fish migrations,

they know to call me.

All our cell phones are gonna be off.

Oh, not mine. Vibrate.

You're risking Janine's wrath?

Yeah, I can take her.

Speaking of which, I'd better go.

Hi.

You made it.

I was worried. How's Ben?

Better.

We got rid of the cells.

Thank you. I knew he'd listen to you.

Welcome, everyone.

Thanks for coming. If you
could be seated, please.

What does this song mean?

The wedding's starting soon.

And if Tia comes?

The cannon's ready.

Here. I'll find a seat.

You wait for Ben?

Okay. Yes.

Hey, you made it.

That's a nice three-piece.

It's Calvin's wedding Of course.

You know, I try not to miss
the possibility of a shit show.

Helen.

Why, it's great to see you.

You too, Chris.

- Hey, hi.
- Hey.

There's some guys over there I
should probably go say hi to.

Excuse me.

Twenty-four hours and he's
already in fighting shape.

I'll have what he's having.

Maybe what he's not having.

Donna's song made him sick, right?

So?

Maybe when we laid her to rest,

he broke free from it.

Did you get that in one of your books?

You have a better theory?

You made it.

How was this morning?

She's at peace now.

In the water.

- You look amazing.
- You look sober.

You are sober, right?

Yeah.

We can be seated.

Calvin and Janine

are here to declare their
love for each other.

And we are here to
commit to helping them

make it last a lifetime.

I asked some of your loved ones

for tips on how marriages survive.

Janine's grandmother says
it was Schnapps with dinner.

And often with lunch.

Calvin's dad reports that he
had to learn that marriage

isn't about winning arguments.

It's about losing arguments to
a woman much smarter than you.

Janine's sister's advice...

Ahem, um, I won't go there.

Today, Calvin and Janine
are tying the knot.

But their relationship
began when someone

forgot to tie the damn knot.

I was there the day that Janine
walked out onto the dock,

and this young seadog was so smitten

that he forgot to tie
off the North Star.

So Calvin had to dive into the harbor.

Is that a meet-cute, or what?

One of their first dates was karaoke.

You're still not allowed

to sing "Sweet Caroline"
in Pruitt County

after the hatchet job
Janine did to it that night.

When these two are
together, it's laughter.

Fun.

It's love.

And they share it with us.

They bring us together.

Ryn. Ryn, stop!

Ryn!

You can die.

What you did was wrong.

Don't you see that?

And with that,

Calvin, if you will put
this on Janine's finger

and repeat after me.

In sickness and in health.

Till death do us part.

By the power vested in me

the great state of Washington,

and Neptune, king of the oceans,

I now pronounce you...

Husband and wife.

How are you holding up?

Open bar heals all wounds.

You ever think about
what's going to happen

when Ryn has to go back one day?

For good?

That's what this was all about?

She said she'd stay on land for me.

Can't let her do that, can I?

Would you want that?

There's yours.

It tells you where to sit.

And there's mine.

We're at the same table.

Yours is only one name.

My date couldn't make it, unfortunately.

Humans think you're apart from someone

just because they're
physically not with you.

But we know, don't we?

All right, everyone!

Can we gather around the dance floor?

Oh, what are they up to?

All right, now before we
get all crazy out here,

and believe me, we will,

we just wanted to slow
things down for the bride...

And groom

to have their first dance.
