The Legend of Vox Machina (2022–…): Season 2, Episode 4 - Those Who Walk Away - full transcript

Hmm.

- They didn't hurt you, did they?
- No.

I think they figured
I'm worth more alive.

Who the hell are these people?

Bandits, poachers maybe?

I've been hearing horrid sounds.

Ah, fuck me.

Let's not stick around
to find out.

Quick, in here.

Vax.

No. Look.



They've hurt him.

Shh.

What did they do to you?

Vex'ahlia, we need to go.

He's suffering.

He needs mercy.

Whatever happens...

it's out of our control.

Vex.

It's okay. Easy.

Easy.

You can rest now.

Oh, gods.

It was... a mother?



It's okay.
We won't hurt you.

What are you doing?

We can't just leave him here.

What? No.

What are you going to do,
raise a damn bear?

Sometimes you have to embrace
what's in front of you.

Not fight it.

Sister.

Oh, shit. They found it.

Pike, heal her!

There's nothing to heal.

Somebody do something!

Z, we can't just stand by.

Let me see her.

We could try resurrecting her.

A revival rite?

- I-I've never tried that before.
- Yeah, not many have.

It's hard as hell to pull off,

so we got to do it
while the body's still warm.

Here. Help me.

Here we go.

This can't be happening.

Who was with her?

She's gonna owe me big-time
for this...

if it works.

- Spell's not holding.
- Come on.

No. It's not working.

'Cause we're
inside her temple.

This is the domain
of the Matron of Ravens.

She's too fucking strong.

Our gods have
no authority here.

Can we maybe move Vex
somewhere else?

We're underneath a lake.
There is no somewhere else.

There's-there's got to be
another potion or something.

It's no use.
She's done for.

Pike, why isn't this working?

You can't give up.
Please!

No.

Vex.

No!

- Come on!
- What's happening?

- Oh, God.
- No.

No, please!

You...

What? No.

Take me instead,
you raven bitch!

I'm, I'm sorry.

Easy.

Oh, thank the Everlight.

I can't believe
you pulled that off.

Holy shit, I'm amazing.

What happened?

I touched the armor.

And you... you were...

- You fucking died.
- Grog!

No, like dead dead.

Yeah. It was crazy.

We turned around, and you were
just laying there stone-cold.

- Vex'ahlia, it was an accident.
- Well...

Fuck.

You saved her.

Thank you.

Well, yeah, yeah, of course.

I mean, I'll just say
you owe me one.

All right, all right.

Yes, your breath is lovely.

But if I died, then how...

Vax?

The vestige, when...?

- How are you wearing it?
- I...

I-I don't know.

I was just worried I'd lost you.

You okay, Vax?

Yeah, fine.
That was just intense.

Kash,
they got the armor.

Hey.

You two ditched us before.
What was that about?

No, we didn't ditch you.

We simply couldn't find you.
That's all.

Uh-huh.

Yeah. I mean, you know,
if we were gonna ditch,

why would I come back
and help your friend?

Hmm. Fair point.

You're very welcome,
by the way.

Now can we please get going?

Oh, sure. Yeah.

- You lead the way, I guess.
- Here. Careful now.

Thanks, Percy.

The Matron.

What did I just do?

We're here on Take
business, not to make friends.

What was I supposed to do?
Just let her die?

Look, I don't like it either,

but they got the vestige
before we did.

Then we'll take it back.

We just need to figure out
our next move.

Stay close, you guys.

I feel like we should be keeping
an eye out for traps.

Pretty sure Grog set them
all off on the way in.

Oh, you're welcome.

I love you, too, Trinket,
but we have to keep up.

Hmm?

Is this the Calamity?

Holy shit.

Are you all seeing this?

The Sphinx's mate.

Watch your step.

Z, let it go. We lost.

Not yet, we didn't.

They can't just walk away
with the Take's property.

They wouldn't even know
what to do with a vestige.

Uh, hello?

Did we lose them again?

Wait, are you gonna kill them?

Oh, you worry too much, love.

If they're worthy of the armor,

well, this will be child's play
for them.

Um...

Uh, what is that?

Oh, shit.

Was that back there
the whole time?

Son of a bitch.

Doesn't feel like
the other traps.

Great. We pissed it off.

We do kind of have that effect
on people.

Bollocks.

I got you!

No, I don't.

I feel weird!

Grog?

He's not dead.
I think he's just petrified.

Oh, just petrified? Really?

Shit.

Would you relax?

As soon as they're restrained,
I swipe the armor,

you unfreeze your new friends,
and we get the hell out of here.

What the...?

Purvan.

Come on!

Damn it, it's everywhere.

Yeah, come on, please. I got him.

Nothing's working.

This is getting out of control.

I can't be a part of this.

I won't!

You would betray
the Slayer's Take for them?

Damn it, Kash.

Eyes up!

Where the hell have you been?

Just grabbing
a quick bite to eat.

What's important is,
we're here now.

I'll get him back in the locket.

Look out!

It was bloody hell
capturing you, and I am not...

Z! No! No!

Not gonna make a tentacle joke?

Eh, too easy.

Pike, take my hand!

I got you, damn it.
Do not let...

Trinket!

Vex?

Whatever happens...

...it's out of our control.

Hail the new champion.

Well, welcome back.

My sister?

Just us, I'm afraid.

Look, I'm sorry.
We didn't mean

for any of this to happen,
I swear.

Save your apologies for later.
Help my friends.

Whew!

Oh, there's that.

I got you.

Whoa.

Is that Vax?

How is he doing that?

The vestige. I-It has to be.

Brother.

Well, damn.

Hmm.

You two disappeared right before
that creature showed up.

Things got out of hand.

Mistakes were made.

Oh, mistake. Yeah, really?
You think?

Look.

The Take has spent decades
protecting Osysa's secrets.

We couldn't let a vestige fall
into the wrong hands,

but... I mean, clearly
yours are worthy.

Uh, listen, you know, we'd love
to apologize all afternoon,

but if you don't want to drown,

we should get the fuck
out of here.

Follow Z!

Oh. Oh, I swallowed so much water.

I, uh...

I want to apologize.

I was careless.

Sometimes we have a habit
of moving too quickly.

I don't want to hear it
right now.

I rushed in
and it nearly got Vex killed.

No, no, it did get her killed.

I don't know what
I would have done differently...

Right.

That went well.

Don't tell me
you're ditching us again.

We misjudged you.

It's rare what you all have,
trust me.

I guess Osysa knows
what she's doing.

And listen,

I know it won't make up
for what happened,

but I want you to have this.

You might need it
on the road ahead.

It keeps a creature
safely tucked away

in a tiny pocket-plane
until you need it.

It's yours now.

And what about my debt
to the Slayer's Take?

What debt?

I'd say take care of yourselves,

but it seems that's the
one thing you know how to do.

Oh, don't worry about us, love.

You've got bigger fish to fry.

- Hey.
- What?

Is Antlers watching me walk away?

Of course, love.

I got
an ass that won't stop.

She kept a creature in it. Hmm.

Do you know what I bet
would fit in it nicely?

Me.

I need a way to keep you
out of danger.

What do you say, Trinket?

Oh, come on, just try it.

Maybe it'll be fun.

Trinket!

I got next!

Okay, that was so cool.

Hello?

Hello?

What?

What?

You've been acting strange
ever since the tomb.

Have I?

What happened?

I don't know.

Bullshit, you don't know.

I saw...

something, but I-I don't know
what it means.

When you were on the floor, I...

I saw the Matron of Ravens
coming for you.

I begged her to take me instead.

I had to.

But I don't know
what's going to happen to me.

To any of us.

Brother,
whatever this all means...

we'll figure it out.

Nothing's changed.

Everything's changed.

Hmm.

Chirp.
