The Outpost (2018–…): Season 2, Episode 7 - Where You Go, People Die - full transcript

My name is Talon.

I'm the last Blackblood,
or so I've been told.

I escaped when Everit Dred
killed all my people.

I cut off the points of my ears
to hide in plain sight.

A tiny creature
lives inside me,

passed to me
by my dying mother.

It gives me the power to open
portals to another world

and summon powerful demons
called Lu-Qiri.

But I can only summon them
when I have their names,

something that's proving
to be a challenge.

The Prime Order wants me dead,
but I've found sanctuary



at the farthest edge of the Realm
in a place known as the Outpost.

Previously, on
"The Outpost"...

Take him,
and find me Talon.

- What are you doing?
- If you rid of that demon for good,

then I will pardon Zed
of his offenses.

E-ja!

Tobin has a cousin,
Milus Aegisford.

He has men and lands
to rival Tobin's.

The last time they met,
Tobin cut

- Milus wide open.
- Oh.

You know, there is
something else you could do for me.

Make peace
with your cousin Milus.

Never. So there's still
a traitor in our midst.

I'll get on the case,
and we'll hang the bastard.



You got a bird yesterday.
Who was it from?

Plaguelings avoid sunlight,
and that could be a clue for the cure.

You are now
The Blade of The Three.

My purpose is clear.

Garret!
I thought you were dead.

What are you doing?

Stopping you from fulfilling
your so-called prophecy

to summon the slayers of men.

What are you talking about?

Wherever you go, people die!

I've done nothing but try
and help you and Gwynn.

Do not speak
of the false queen!

- False queen?
- I will deal with her next.

- Why are you doing this?
- I cannot let you live.

You'll destroy us all.

- I am your friend!
- You are no one's friend!

What have they done to you?

They showed me the truth.

They lie.
The Prime Order lies, Garret!

Look at me.

I don't believe
you can kill me.

Hail to The Three.

Season 02 Episode 07

*THE OUTPOST*
Episode Title: "Where You Go, People Die"

It was a reasonable demand
to show your influence.

Milus was the obvious choice.

My father's going to
rise from the grave

- and break every bone in me.
- Nonsense.

You sent our offer
to make amends,

like a reasonable ruler.

An offer that he can't
possibly refuse.

It's like I got down on my
knees and I licked his boots.

If it works, it's worth it.

Your wounded pride
will be restored

when your son
is king of the Realm.

It's hard to think
that far ahead

when you're licking boots.

It was a ridiculous feud
in the first place.

Don't you think you've done
and said enough?

Just shut up and leave me to my shame,
and hope my men don't hack him to pieces

the moment he shows
his bastard face around here!

You know, you've picked a hell of
a time for me to quit drinking.

Maybe she wishes
you had a beard like mine.

Women like a beard
tickling them when they kiss.

Oh, really? Is that so, Munt?
How many women have you kissed?

Ah, plenty.

Um... one.

Yeah, Mum.

- Just Mum, actually.
- That's what I thought.

Anyway, I don't think it has
anything to do with my kissing,

thank you very much.

Tell me what happened,
every juicy bit.

There's no juicy bits, Munt.
It's just that I said...

You know, I went to
give her some flowers

and then I said
there'd be kissing.

It could be the kissing.

Hey! Hey!
Get him away from me!

Are you cured?

You're cured!
How do you feel?

Please!
Please let me go.

Open up! Open up!

Munt, I was right.

The sun cured her.

But if the sun cured her,

why not the others, huh?

Lady, tell me everything
that happened.

I don't remember much,

just choking on that thing,
and now I'm here.

Aah!

Munt, let the lady go.

- Are you sure?
- I am sure. Let her go.

- I don't want to get pricked...
- Now!

Hey.

Why her and not the others?
What's different about her?

Is it that she's a woman?

Munt, these flowers only seem
to open up in the daytime.

I think we could be
on to something here.

Yes, this changes everything,
don't it?

Lady, when's the last time

you paid your taxes?

- Eh?
- Yeah.

- Have you got money now?
- Munt, leave her alone.

- Aah! Aah!
- Munt!

- Why did you bite me?
- Why did you grab me like that?

Janzo sent me to get you.

Why didn't you just tap me on the
shoulder and say Janzo wants to see me?

He wanted to surprise you
with a romantic dinner.

Dinner?
It's the middle of the day.

I-I don't know, I thought
if I covered your eyes,

it would help
with the surprise.

And if I told you it was me,
you'd know Janzo sent me.

That is the stupidest thing
I've ever...

Forget about it.
I know you meant well.

Will you act surprised
when you see Janzo?

Yes, I'll act surprised.

This is such a nice surprise.

It's probably not as good as what the
Queen's kitchen serves you, but, uh...

But I got the best of what
the Outpost has to offer.

It's perfect, Janzo.

You're perfect.

Do you know every morning
when I wake up,

I think that
I'm still dreaming.

And then when I realize
that I'm not,

I just can't stop smiling.

You don't have to say that.

But it's true.

Overlap the strapping.
It makes it stronger.

Lord Tobin,

I brought some food
for the workers.

Set it over there.

Get the strapping wetter.
It tightens as it dries.

- Oh, Your Maj...
- Shh.

What are you doing here?

Take a break with me.

You should eat something.

Uh, finish up this side.

I'll be back.

It's unfermented.
I'm sorry.

And you're welcome.

Thank you, I guess.

What's in this?

Well, there's, um, boar leg.

- Huh.
- Salt.

- Mm-hmm.
- Uh, let's see, um...

- Lots of carmac. Yeah.
- Yes, carmac.

- Mm-hmm.
- I went to the kitchen and made it myself.

- Oh.
- Oh?

Oh, it's horrible,
isn't it?

I've eaten worse.

I ate, um,
rancid venison once.

That's not funny.
I made that for you.

It's a good thing
you have people cook for you.

As Queen,
I order you to stop laughing.

Right, that's it.
Back to work.

Come on now.

It's not all that bad.

I'm eating it, aren't I?

Yes, I just wanted to show that
I appreciated your hard work.

- Right.
- And that you risked your life for me,

even though you just got
a good drubbing and, uh,

actually didn't really
accomplish much.

Mm.

Yes. Carmac.

So, um, tell me a bit more
about yourself.

I've realized I hardly know a thing
about the girl I'm so crazy about.

Um, I don't know what to say.

Um, I lived in the Capital
in the poor quarter,

and then, um, I came here.

That's very brave of you,
isn't it,

to be traveling so far?

Did you come
in a trade caravan?

- A military convoy, actually.
- Oh, that's awful.

Sorry, I've heard about
how the soldiers on the roads

treat young women.

They didn't lay a hand on me.

Well, that's fortunate then,
isn't it?

Naya, I wasn't trying
to imply...

Let's just talk
about something else.

Of course.

- I've upset you, haven't I?
- No.

- It's nothing.
- Stupid.

Don't do that.
You've done nothing wrong.

Really?

Because it feels, Naya, like...

Like it's only around me
that you're ever upset.

It's not you.

I just show it
around you more because

I'm comfortable with you
and I let my guard down.

Well, that's good,
isn't it?

Do you want to tell me
what's wrong, Naya?

I promise that I'll do
anything I can to help you.

I'm a bad person.

- And I don't deserve you.
- What?

I think it's me
that doesn't deserve you.

I shouldn't have come.
I'm sorry. I can't do this.

No, Naya. Naya, no.

No, no, no, Naya! Stop!

Please don't leave.
I'll do anything, okay?

I can change.
I can be a different...

Just stop it.
I've already told you

it's nothing
you've done, Janzo.

It's what I've done.

What do you mean?
What have you done?

Oh, Naya. Naya.

Please don't cry.

Naya, don't cry.
What could be so bad, hmm?

Nothing. I have to go.

Naya, please wait.

You can trust me.

I want to do anything I can
to help you.

You won't want to after
I tell you what I've done.

There's nothing
that you can say

that would make me
stop loving you.

How about this?
I'm the traitor.

What do you mean?

I'm the spy.

I'm the one
who let Dred go free.

No, you're not.

No. No.

I'm sorry, Janzo.
It was me.

It was my fault Dred got away.

It was my fault he killed Garret,
and it ill be my fault

- when the Prime Order attacks.
- Naya, don't be so ridiculous.

Please tell me
you're not being serious.

No!

Please don't hate me.

Did someone make you do this?

The Prime Order
threatened my family.

The Prime Order threatened
everyone's family, Naya.

Every man, every woman,
every child.

If you really did
what you say you did,

you could have cost
the lives of thousands.

Do you realize that?

Or even actually
the entire Realm?

What have you told them?

I only worked
for Ambassador Dred.

He knows everything
up to when he left.

He killed Garret.

I'm sorry, Janzo.
I am so sorry.

But you have to believe me,
I hate them more than anyone.

How can you even say that when
you're the one who serves them?

They have my mother
and my sister.

So what?

I can't believe
you would be so insensitive.

I didn't mean it like that.

But did you really think
that the Prime Order

were just gonna go
and release your family?

Hmm? Why would they, Naya?

They're just gonna keep
asking you for more and more.

The Prime Order used you.

But now you're going to go and tell
Queen Rosmund everything that happened.

Yes. And you're going
to tell her why...

- No.
- and she's going to understand.-

For what I've done,
she will take my head.

- I will not let her.
- You can't stop her.

I'm not going to let anyone
hurt you, do you hear me?

You might spend
a lot of time in prison,

- but I won't let anyone hurt...
- If I turn myself in,

my mother and my sister
will surely die.

They're probably already dead.

Hey.

If they are still alive,

there's nothing more
you can do.

But maybe the Queen can.

You have to
turn yourself in, Naya.

Right now.

It's your only chance.

Something wrong, Janzo?

No, why?

Because you're handling those
flowers like you hate them.

I don't hate
the stupid flowers, Munt.

All right.
Are you mad at me?

Munt, shut up!

Is this because I grabbed Naya
and dragged her into an alley?

- What?
- What? No, nothing.

Ah, you guys look beautiful.

Janzo,
I need to talk to you.

What are you
even doing here, Naya?

You promised me
you would confess.

I did. Um, sort of.

I left a letter
explaining everything,

But I have to go and help
my mother and sister if I can.

And then I'll come back and
face my punishment, I swear it.

I told you, they're
probably already dead.

- Why don't you come with me?
- I can't come with you.

Naya, my work is here.

And do you know what? Actually,
even if I could come with you, I wouldn't.

What you did was terrible.

If you don't turn yourself in,
I'm never going to forgive you.

She'll have me executed.
I know she will.

- Is that what you want?
- Do you know why?

Because I told you I would
never let that happen to you.

But I'm also not going
to betray my friends.

If you haven't
surrendered by noon,

I'm going to tell
Gwynn myself.

And if I leave
the Outpost instead?

Mm. She'll probably
have you hunted down.

Good-bye, Naya.

No.

Janzo, no. Please.

Naya. Just the girl
I was looking for.

What do you want?
I was just on the way to see my Queen.

Oh, good.
We'll escort you.

I know she'd want
a few words with you.

You're under arrest.

And this is true?
You confess to it?

And it was you who released
Ambassador Dred?

- Yes, Your Majesty.
- Don't call me that.

In your mouth, it's a mockery.

In the name of every god, why?

They have my mother
and sister.

I was sent here under threat
that they would be killed.

And once you came here?

Once you came to know
the rightness of our cause?

Once we were victorious
over Dred and his army,

you didn't think
to join us then?

I could have helped you.
Maybe even helped your family.

But instead, you released
Ambassador Dred,

who then killed my Garret.

You are responsible
for the death of Garret Spears.

If I had known he would have done that,
I wouldn't have set him free, I swear.

And since then, you've been hiding like
a snake at my side ready to strike.

No, Your Majesty.
I love you more than anything.

You are guilty for treason
against the throne.

Against me.

Execute her at once.

Um, Your Majesty?

You know I'm a big fan
of executions.

I really enjoy them,
but why the rush?

We could just interrogate her,
find out what she knows,

find out what she's told
the Prime Order.

I'll tell you anything
you want to know.

So be it, but she must die
imminently after.

Every breath she takes is an insult to
those who bled or died because of her.

And double her guards

in case she has any
co-conspirators among us.

Get her out of my sight.

No.

Tobin, I am in your debt for
the apprehension of the traitor.

I hope you'll understand if I show
my proper gratitude at another time.

Right now,
I'd rather be alone.

Of course, Rosmund.
I understand.

I suspected you'd gone
to the other side.

Yeah, well, never again.

- How long was I gone?
- More than a day.

- What happened?
- Rebb's tribe tried to kill me.

I need to get to Gwynn
before Garret does.

What about our journey to collect
the stone to complete the key?

He'll kill the Queen.
Get up. I might need you.

Welcome, cousin Milus.

Was it really your hand
that wrote this?

- It was.
- It says here that

you'll surrender to us
all the lands west and south

- of the Red-bank.
- That's what it says.

And all I have to do
is shake your hand?

Shake my hand,
declare peace between us,

and declare yourself loyal
to the Queen.

You failed to mention
that little addition.

I mean, It seems I've come
a long way for nothing.

I'm giving you everything
we've been at war over all these years.

What, for a woman who claims
to be a surviving royal?

She is who she says she is.

Any day now, the Prime Order
will march over that hill

and hang every one of you
for treason.

And then I'll get
your land anyway.

If you join us,
together we can defeat them.

Or together we can hang.

I'd rather take
the sure thing.

You still only care
about yourself.

That's true.

And I find it hard to believe
you're ready to give up

the best grazing land
in the Realm

to a man
you'd rather see dead.

I mean, what's so special
about this so-called queen

that she would whip a man
like you to your knees?

Why don't you meet her
and find out for yourself?

With pleasure. I mean, that's all
I'm really here for anyway, isn't it?

Your... alleged Majesty.

Charming, and so respectful.

I hear you've rejected
Tobin's offer of free land.

Oh, I never agree
the first offer.

Are you so poor that paying
nothing is still too much?

It'll all be mine anyway
when the Prime Order attacks.

Do you own any land, Milus?

As far as the eye can see

from every window
in my keep.

No, you have nothing.

The Prime Order owns that land.

You merely manage it
at their bidding.

And, um, what is your title?

I am a Lord Baron.

Milus, even to use
that term is heresy.

You are just a humble servant
of the Prime Order

like anyone else in the Realm.

You have no title.
You have nothing.

I am not thrilled
about the Prime Order,

but I don't stick
my neck out, either.

Same as anyone else
who likes their neck.

You will be
grossly overwhelmed.

Well, I'm confident
that most of the Realm

will come to our side
once we get started.

It only takes a few boulders
to start a landslide.

Oh, I'm better off keeping
what I've got,

even if it is under
the Prime Order's thumb.

Why would I risk it?

What if I were to give you
all of Tobin's land?

Not just the lowlands.

- All of it?
- All of it.

You really need my help,
don't you?

I am the Queen, Milus,
and I will retake the Realm.

And after that,

I will remember those
who supported me

and those who did not.
The first will be richly rewarded.

All of Tobin's lands?
You swear it?

Well, Tobin
won't need any land,

as he'll be married
to the queen.

I will?

You will.

And I get all
of Tobin's lands?

I will grant you
the Aegisford title and land

if you reunite the Aegisford
family under one banner

loyal to the Queen.

You are one sly dog,
cousin.

What is your answer?

You will have your two boulders
to start your landslide,

Your Majesty.

My army will make preparations
to march immediately.

Was that an acceptance
of that marriage proposal

- I offered so many days ago?
- It was.

I, uh...
I'm past the deadline.

Is that all right?

Ooh!

20 Aegisford bannermen
will attend the wedding,

one for each province
in his vassal.

Two bannermen.
One for you and one for Tobin.

Two? Ha! I'll agree to 12.

One for each red moon
since Tobin's father died.

Four. One for each season
since the old man croaked.

- Ten. Ten.
- Five. I really think four is better.

- Six.
- Done.

Now, your people will supply
all the festooning,

ornamentation, flowers,
and fanfare.

Festooning? Flowers?
What do you think this is?

A royal wedding.
She is the queen, is she not?

This is a military outpost.

We don't... we don't have
any of that kind of stuff.

Well, you'll do
what you can.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'll do what I can.

I've got a couple
of horn blowers who can...

Who can do a kind of a fanfare.

And any booze you want,
you'll have to get from me.

Fine. We'll get all
the inebriants from you.

"Inebriants."

Here's to the matchmakers.

Long may they reign.

Leave it. I'll manage.

Thank you. You may go.

I require nothing more.

A moment of your time?

Come in.

I hope you have good news.

Have you found a cure?

Getting close, but, um,
that's not why I'm here.

Why then?

I've come to plead mercy
for Naya.

I have nothing more
to say on that subject.

Did you know that her mother

and sister
are being held hostage?

So she says.

What would you have done
in her place?

There is only one penalty
for the crime of treason.

You make the laws.
You can change them.

If I make one exception,

then all the other spies
that come after that

will expect the same thing.

Your Majesty,
I have done a lot for you,

and I'm this close to finding
a cure for the Plaguelings.

- You owe me.
- I owe you nothing.

I am your Queen.

I am begging you.

Please just do this
one thing for me.

I'm asking you
as my friend, please.

I love her.

You and Naya are together?

Mm.

I love her very much.

I loved her too, Janzo,

which only makes it
more difficult.

- But...
- But it changes nothing.

Sorry, am I interrupting?

No, your son
was just leaving.

What is it, Elinor?

Um, the...

the prisoner
has cooperated fully.

I believe we know everything.

Execution is at first light.

Mother, if there's anything you
do for me in my entire life,

please let it be this.

Naya doesn't deserve to die.

- Yes, she does.
- I'm sorry, Janzo.

Take heart that
we will grieve together.

I don't even know
who you are anymore!

Well, the wedding
is all arranged...

To our advantage
in all respects.

Thank you.

- You all right?
- Yes, fine.

I find my...
My hand won't behave.

Understandable.

Just 'cause you're queen doesn't
mean that you can't be human.

That handmaid
was your friend?

Yes, perhaps my closest.

Except maybe Talon.

I know.

Sometimes being boss

can stink more
than Remmick dung.

That it can.

There you are.

You did the right thing,
Gwynn.

Janzo.

What's this about?

Hello, Partridge,
Griffin, Varna.

Deputy Marshal,
as I am sure you are well aware,

my lady friend over here
is going to be executed at dawn.

That's right,
and for good cause.

Even so, I'd like to say
good-bye to her, please.

It's not permitted to speak to
the prisoners after sentencing.

I know, but we're all friends
here, aren't we?

Right? And as a friend,

I thought I would bring you
a tray of my finest ale.

I cannot bend the rules,
even for friends, Janzo.

Also, free drinks at the
Nightshade until next winter.

Let me see that.

- For all of us?
- Mm.

- The Mistress approves?
- Mm-hmm.

On the house.
Free drinks until next year.

I just need a minute with her.

Fellas!

It's rather policy
than a rule, Janzo.

- Take your time.
- Thank you.

I tried to confess.
I was going to tell her everything.

Shh. I know, I know.

But it's because of me that
you're in here waiting to die.

No, not because of you.
I did this. No one else.

I only wanted to
save my family.

- I know.
- Cheers.

It's all right.
I'm ready to die.

I told you I wasn't
going to let that happen.

But there's nothing
you can do.

Cinder moss.

But when they wake up,
they'll arrest you.

No, they won't. Because they won't
remember anything for hours before.

Possibly even days.

Mmm.

- You are brilliant.
- Yes, I am.

- Come on. Help me.
- Okay.

Take it. Let's go.

It's everything you'll need.

You're not coming with me,
are you?

I can't, Naya.
You know I can't.

Mm.

It figures.

When I finally find
the one woman I'll ever love,

I have to send her away.

Welcome to my life.

I promise I'll come back.

Mm.

You can't ever come back.
Promise me.

They'll execute you if you do.

Go. Go.

Naya escaped.

- Isn't he magnificent?
- Sure. I'd give him a go.

You're alive.

- Gwynn, listen to me.
- I can't believe it.

It is not safe here.

You are not safe here.
You need to come with me.

What are you... what are
you talking about? Garret?

Garret: Come on.

- Was that?
- All: Garret.

Garret, this is crazy.
Where have you been?

I'll tell you all about it,
but right now we need to leave.

- It's my wedding.
- Oh, is that what this is?

Please, Gwynn, I need you
to trust me, all right?

There are people here
who are trying to harm you.

- Now we need to leave.
- Who?

Do you trust me?

That fits.

Anyone my sister counsels
has to be bad.

I beg your pardon.
What did you say?

Mistress,
in Queen Rosmund's absence,

I'm reporting to you,
the Queen's Counsel.

Yes.

The traitor Naya
has escaped.

Right.

I'm so glad
that you're alive.

You knew I was alive.

You just didn't care.

What are you talking about?

Garret?
