Previously on Van Helsing!

Susan?

( Fighting grunts )

( Screams )

It's true.

Get ready to run!

One of ours was killed
before you got here.

Whoever did it, took a finger,
just like this.

I remember your scent.

Hey!

This is only temporary



until we find out who
the real killer is.

I did.

I killed those people.

We break in through here.

We are up and in without them
even knowing.

Now!

( Growling and snarling )

Fresh meat to the one
who brings her to me.

( Snarling )

Run!!!

( Gasping )

( Snarling )

Let's go!

( Vampire shrieks )



( Vampire shrieks )

Get back!

Shit!

Come on!

( Feral snarling )

( Screaming )

( Feral snarling )

( Screams )

( Screeching )

( Snarling )

( Screams )

( Screams )

Vanessa!

Vanessa!

( Choking )

Va- Vanessa!

Please- please- Vanessa...

Please... please, it's me...

Susan... Susan...

( Sobbing )

Oh, Susan.

I'm sorry.

It's ok.

I'm sorry.

It's ok.

I'm getting us out of here.

Ok, sure.

Woah!

It's ok.

It's ok.

You rest now.

Remember you used to sing
this to your little girl.

Twinkle, twinkle,
little star,

how I wonder what you are.

Up above the world so high,

like a diamond in the sky.

Twinkle, twinkle,
little star...

( Screeching )

I wonder what's in there.

I don't know.

They told me to stay close
to everyone else.

You know, it's probably
more food.

Supplies.

All the stuff they didn't want
us to find out about before.

Gosh.

Do you think it's ever going
to be the same again?

Like, the world I mean.

Of course it will be, sweetie.

Really?

Absolutely.

All this bad stuff?

It's only temporary.

I can feel it.

Maybe it's really a toy store
with toys and candy

and stuff like that!

( Laughs )

Callie!

( Screams )

( Starts sobbing )

You ok?

Can you keep going?

Look who's talking.

I'm fine.

I'd throw you over my shoulder
and carry you myself

but I'd probably resent your
ass for like six months or so.

We wouldn't want that.

Ok look, these numbers.

They correspond to streets.

Really?

Yeah, my old bus route,
remember?

Yeah.

Downtown is on a grid so if
i remember correctly we just...

We're close.

A few more blocks underground

and we should be able
to go topside.

We could risk it now.

But no doubt we're
being tracked.

We're better off staying
underground as long as we can.

Yeah.

These things down here...

I need a minute.

Susan, listen.

If something happens, ok,

if we get split up or whatever
and you find Dylan before me,

I just... I need you...

I need you to tell her
that I'm alive.

Ok? And that I'm searching
for her.

And that I will find her.

Ok? I will.

Ok.

But we're gonna get
out of here.

For Dylan.

And you can tell her
your damn self.

Ok?

Mmmhmm.

Mmmhmm.

And yes, ok, we never should
have taken the keys, ok?

I know that, but... come on.

Come on!

You don't...

This guy has booby-trapped
the entire hospital

and Callie walked
right into it!

Thank god she's so tiny
or she...

It- it would have
torn her in half.

( Starts sobbing )

I want to know what happened.

The hell that you've got
going around here.

I'm gonna need you
to be

a bit more specific than
that, big guy.

( Groans )

I seriously have no idea
what you're talking about.

Your stupid traps, asshole.

All the shit you've hung up
and hidden away around here,

that's what.

Why's that?

Because you almost killed
a little girl, that's why.

Where was this?

Why does that matter?

Just asking.

The south side of the building.

The blood bank
or whatever it is.

Well you ought to teach her
to read

because I put a sign on the door
that clearly says "keep out".

You asshole!

I got this.

I'm gonna need a list of
every gadget

you've stashed
around this place.

Why would I do something
stupid like that?

Because that's the only
way a group of people

trying to live here can safely
go about their daily lives.

That is why.

You got a pencil?

I do.

Great. Take it and jam it up
your ass.

( Groans )

( Moans )

You're such a tough guy,

but you're gonna tell me
in the end anyway.

Why, so you can take
this place over for good?

We already have taken
over this place.

For good.

( Groans )

Does taka even know
we're doing this?

Do you think I would risk
being here without telling him?

Where is he?

He's planning.

He's looking at
the big picture.

All I care about is getting
free of here.

Of them.

Does he have a grand plan
about that, too?

Look, there's two things
i know, quaid.

Number one: I trust taka
with my life.

And number two: I know that
if I ask too many questions

he could end my life
like that.

( Snaps fingers )

You got this?

Piece.

Of...

Cake.

Wait.

Wait, wait, wait.

Send a scout first.

They only guard the front,
not inside.

No, something's wrong.

This was your plan
in the first place.

I'm going.

Sweet.

Wait.

Show me your face.

Quaid?

Show me your damn face.

( Hissing )

( Gun shots )

( Snarling )

( Gun shots )

It's a trap!

Fall back!

( Gun shots )

( Low growling )

We failed.

( Stuttering ) The
sewer beasts got them.

The woman must be dead.

She must be.

( Low growling )

( Starts sobbing )

How can you be sure?

Hmm?

How can you be sure?

( Stammering ) She-
she must be...

( Growling )

( Bellows in frustration )

( Continues to bellows )

Callie, could you grab me

another bowl of soup please
while you're up?

Sure.

Thank you.

She's gonna be ok.

Yeah.

I'm just gonna...

I think I need some time
to myself.

You feel alright?

Yeah, fine.

I wanna tell you something.

Something I've never
told you,

or anybody else for that matter.

I've got a kid.

I do.

What?

I try not to think about it,
but... uh,

it was when I first,

I was young and my dad wanted me
to get rid of her but...

So i- I was... so
i left and ran off.

I had this thing but I didn't
really know how to...

So um, anyhow I just- just
so you know, um...

I get how you feel
because...

Not a day goes by where I don't
think about my baby.

Thank you.

This is it.

The only way this is gonna work
is if one of us- gah!

Son of a-

oh my god.

Hey!

How does that feel,
you piece of shit?

Dammit!

You like my booby-trap?

Huh? Do you?

Hey!

Do you like how it feels?

Do you like how that feels?!

Do you like it?!

Brendan!

Do you like that?!

Do you want some?!!!!

Somebody help us!

Do you like how that feels?!!

Do you?!!

Aaargh!!!

I'm not done with you!

I'm going to destroy you!!!!

Somebody help us!

Enough! Stop!

Now!

( Screams )

I'm gonna kill you.

I'm gonna kill you!

Stop!

You're dead!

Stop! Stop!!

I understand how you feel,
i do.

But this is not how
we do things.

Go cool off, now!

Now.

Is that how you control
your people?

I'm sorry, this is not
the way we operate.

Oh yeah, except for my
little hallway beating.

This won't happen again.

Oh, good.

I feel so much better.

I promise you.

I know it's not gonna
happen again

because if any of your people

come at me like that again
I'm gonna kill 'em.

You might wanna go
tell them that.

Here, let me take
a look at that.

You eavesdropping
with that thing?

Is that what that is?

You always carry that around?

Hey.

What're they saying?

( Whispering )

Come on.

Come on.

They're going to execute us.

All of us.

Come on.

Almost there.

Oh god, that thing
down there that bit me

something's not right.

Shit.

It's ok, there's a doctor
in there.

We just gotta get back in.

The door code is 1936.

1936.

I hope.

( Growling )

Shit.

We gotta go.

( Ferals growling )

( Growling )

Damn, it's really starting
to hurt.

You said you normally heal
faster than this.

Yeah, I don't know, since I woke
up I have been able to.

That thing down there
was different.

This bite is getting worse.

What about this doctor
and the others?

Are you sure you can
trust these people?

I hope so.

At least for now.

Holy shit, you made
it back!

Yeah, just.

How?

And who's this?

It doesn't matter.

I'm her friend.

Where's doc?

She needs a doctor, now.

Go get the doctor.

I'll take these two
to the cafeteria.

Go.

The cafeteria, why?

It's closer.

Come on.

Doc, we need you.

Now, please.

What're you guys trying
to pull?

They banished mohamad?

Why?

Then they stabbed Axel and
now they want to get rid of us.

What?

Sam read their lips.

They're gonna execute us.

Hey, how're you doing?

Hey.

I sacrificed myself for you
and this is how you repay me?

You- you lock my people up,
you attack them?

It's just temporary,
believe me.

Just until we know that
we exiled the right one.

Look, one of them
is a murderer.

It's a fact.

Mohamad took the blame
so we sent him away.

Bullshit.

That kid would never-

look, it doesn't matter.
Someone did it.

We're trying to
figure out who.

Fine.

I'll stay out of it.

I'll be friggin Switzerland
as far as your concerned.

Ok?

Just leave Susan alone.

I'll be on my way
when I'm better.

Understood.

Obviously you'll be free to go
when you've recovered, so...

You're gonna leave us?

What do you think?

I think I can count on you.

Good.

Fill me in.

We're doing our best.

There's a grate
in the ceiling.

We're trying to get
one of us through it.

Good.

That's good.

You do that.

I got a message for Axel.

Susan, you can help
with this, too.

( Whispering )

What do we do now?

We can't keep them
locked up here forever.

You're right.

Axel's the problem.

We separate him, maybe
we can get to the truth.

Shit.

How dare you?!

Who are you to talk to me
that way?

Huh?

Back off!!

I said back off!

You bitch!

You bitch!

You're just like these assholes!

Put that thing down or I will
stab you in the throat, bitch!

I'll kill you!

I'll kill you!

I'll kill you!

I'll kill you!

( Screaming )

Escort the doctor back
to the others!

Hey, you stay here
with Vanessa.

Uh, she said "Switzerland".

Remember?

So give us some space.

Oh, and we're both gonna
need some new clothes.

You got that?

What happened?

Vanessa's back.

She made it somehow, but-

she's alive?

Yes, but very injured.

Now, listen.

She has a plan.

She says you need to try
and get out.

If you can catch Brendan
off-guard then somehow secure

the doors on both ends of
the wing they can take out

whoever is left
on the other side.

Who are "they"?

She- she brought in some
woman, some Susan chick.

Anyway, she said "take out
the generator".

She wants me to get them
in the dark.

Get them disoriented,
get the advantage.

I'm in.

I'll do the lights.

You?

It's better than facing
a firing squad at dawn.

Why not me?

You can't do both.

Yeah, I can.

Not at the same time.

You need to trust someone,
Axel.

Let one of us help you.

Fine.

What else?

She said...

Um, she said something
about building a rat trap?

What does that mean?

Meaning get them all jammed
down one end of this joint,

treat them like a bunch of
goddamn vermin and then...

What?

Gee whiz, I don't know,
John.

What do you think?

I think we're all gonna die.

That's what I think.

Hey, you.

Hey there.

Look what I found.

Oh, sweet.

Do you remember me?

Of course.

Vanessa.

Hi.

They told me you got back.

That's good.

Yeah.

Are you ok?

I heard about what happened
to you.

Yeah, I'm fine.

I still like it here.

Good.

That's good.

Hey, you wanna have fun?

You wanna play a game?

Sure.

Ok, but you can't
tell anybody,

'cause that'll ruin it, alright?

It's gotta be just
between me and you.

What're we gonna play?

Hide and seek.

That's fun!

Yep, and you can hide anywhere
you want.

But if you come out
before I find you,

or before I yell "i give up",
then you lose.

Ok?

We're about to have dinner.

Should I save you
a couple plates?

No thanks, we'll make
our own.

For protection, without
touching your borders.

You want some help, babe?

( Groans )

Don't call me babe.

( Dishes clatter )

Hold it right there.

I just need to talk
to Brendan.

That ain't happening.

( Alarm sounds )

( Gun fire )

( Groans )

He's in here!

He's in here!

( Groans )

Oh, shit!

Shit!

( Gun fire )

( Screaming )

( Fighting grunts )

( Screaming )

( Fighting grunts )

( Screaming )

( Fighting grunts )

( Groans )

( Alarm continues to wail )

( Gunfire )

What have you done, huh?

What the hell have you done?!

Christ!

I'm gonna need those keys.

It didn't have to be like this,
man.

Not like this!

No, it didn't.

And?

And?!

And like I said, I'm gonna
need those keys.

God damn you.

I should have killed you
when I had the chance.

Yeah, you probably should have.

( Alarm continues to wail )

Let's talk about this, man.

Come on.

Oh, we're about to talk.

You comin', new girl, or what?

It's Susan.

No, not with him.

Why's that?

He's one of them.

No, not anymore.

Vanessa turned me
just like she turned you.

No, this guy?

He's...

He's one of us now.

You might not like it but
that's the way it is.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Yes, definitely.

We can't just...
What're you saying?

The obvious.

Jesus.

We might as well be them.

He's not saying kill the
rest of them, are you?

( Sighs )

No, look- I just-
we can't stay like this.

In here, us and them.

Ok.

Then what's the answer?

I don't know the answer,
i just-

I did what I had to do.

You didn't have to,
you chose to.

You just slaughtered their
whole group.

Yeah, all those people.

For you.

And you.

And you.

All of you, so all of you
didn't have to die.

Yeah, but...

That's the way
the world is now.

Yeah, says you.

I'm sorry, was it a bad idea?

Obviously not.

I'm... I'm just saying...

What?

These were people.

We killed people.

Actual people.

Actually, I killed those people.

That was me.

You didn't do shit.

So what's the answer then?

We know the answer.

Is this how you
handle everything?

You're throwing them
to the wolves.

You just love to be the good guy
when you're sitting over there

with no dirt on your hands.

So that's it then?

We all agree?

Like it or not.

Yep.

Yeah.

Ok then.

End of discussion.

What about the little girl?

Callie.

Callie!

Callie!

Callie?

Callie?

Callie!

I heard shots.

Callie.

I was hiding for so long.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Callie, listen--

do you give up yet?

Yeah, sweetie.

I give up.

( Sobbing )

Quaid. The others.

All dead.

You're a traitor.

( Sobbing ) I swear to you,
i didn't know.

I didn't know.

They wanted you to have
those building plans.

Walked us right into a trap.

It had to be you.

( Sobbing )

Who did you
betray us to?

Hmm?

You tell me or so help me
god I'll-

( gasps )

( Choking )

Your god won't
help you now.

Where is taka?

Tell me where to find him.

I don't know who
you're talking about.

Taka.

I'm sorry.

I can't help you.

( Groans in pain )

No?

No.

And even if I could,
i wouldn't.

But you already have.

I wasn't sure taka even existed
until now, thanks to you.

Someday he's gonna come
for you.

I told you.

I know your scent.

Now you'll lead me
to the others.

Please don't do this.

I'm begging you here.

Look, send me then.

Send me but leave the rest
of them, please.

Look, you can't do this.

You just can't.

You're killing us.

You realize that, right?

You're basically sending us
out there to die.

You mean exactly what you
were about to do to us?

And what you already did
to mohamad.

This is- he was a murderer.

Liar!

We never said we
were gonna kill you!

Liar.

We didn't.

Someone here is killing people.

And it wasn't any of us.

It's one of you.

Don't you hear what
he's saying?

Grab your stuff.

Let's go.

Don't have more blood
on your hands.

Come on!

I can't go back out there.

I can't.

Just give us another chance.

Let's move.

Can they please stay,
Vanessa?

If they act really nice
this time, please?

Callie.

I'm sorry, sweetie, no.

I know it's hard to understand
but they just can't.

I'm sorry.

( Starts crying )

It's ok.

Shh, it's ok.

Noon's your best shot.

Now, get outside the city,
you might have a chance.

Someday when the monsters
are gone and the sun is shining,

we'll go on a new adventure.

No, Callie!

Callie!

No, ca- Callie!

Cal- Callie...

( Sobbing )

Oh, please.

Ok, go now.

Go now.

No, no, Callie!

Callie!

You changed the code?

What's the code?

What's the friggin' code?!

You can't open it again.

It's too dangerous.

I'm not doing it.

Besides, she's
with her people.

She's where she wants to be.

She's just a little girl.

( Continues to sob )

I'm worried about this wound.

Why?

It's not healing over and
you seem to be getting worse,

not better.

It doesn't matter.

Vanessa, listen.

We tried to stop the little girl
but... she got out-

I don't want to talk about it,
doc.

She seemed to really care
about you.

Drop it.

Do you think it would have been
better if we just killed them?

Right here in the hospital?

What do you think?

I don't know.

Who knows what's right and wrong
in this new world?

Exactly.

Nothing matters anymore.
