Van Helsing (2016–…): Season 4, Episode 13 - The Beholder - full transcript

The President and Ivory try to decipher what really happened in the Dark Realm.

Previously, on
"Van Helsing"...

Sunshine Unit.

Show's over mother‐

How would you like to proceed
Madam President?

Sweet Willem.

Ready?

- The Dark One.
- Yeah?

Is gone.

We have to save Jack!

Wait! Her heart!
She's not breathing.

No, no, no!



Somebody help me!

Violet! Vi!
No, no, no, no!!!

We don't have a full account
of what happened.

Jack is stable for now.

I will transport her back
to a hospital

and get her to a point
where she can be debriefed.

Madam President,
without better resources

I don't think she'll make it.

Your chopper took some damage
on the way in.

That's a six‐hour repair.

Do you have any good news,
Colonel?

Or am I better off talking
to Avery or Hansen?

I think I need to fully
brief you.

In private.



Poor kid.

I can't imagine what she's
been through.

They got her all drugged up now.

Strapped her in
so when she comes to

she doesn't hurt herself.

What the hell happened in there?

I don't know.

But whatever it was,
it really messed her up.

Jack...
is that you?

Jack?

- Save Jack.
- Hey.

- Madam President...
- That is enough, Colonel.

I want to talk to Avery
and that's the end of it.

Are we clear?

Thank you.

Madam President!

Thank goodness you're here!

You can fix all this!

Fix what, exactly?

My false imprisonment.

I-I-If you let me out
I can tell you‐

I am eager to hear your side.

I really am, Avery.

But this arrangement
will be just fine for now.

Wha‐

I...
I came here to get answers for you

about Hansen,
his work.

And at every turn
I have been blocked.

Why?

What does Hansen stand
to gain?

Everything.

Don't you realize who he's been
working for all along?

Blak Tek made Daywalkers.

He's been in league with them
from day one.

Where is Hansen?

I'd like to question him,
as well.

Escaped.

Hiding.

The Colonel and his men were
supposed to be hunting for him.

There's a dead body
on the floor.

I had nothing to do with that.

I don't know what the Colonel
has told you,

why he won't unlock the door.

He's probably working
with Hansen.

You can't trust him
or any of his men.

I can prove it.

You're right.

She is fascinating.

And very, very dangerous.

Please, Madam President.

You have to believe me.

You've been married
for a decade?

I worked with your husband
at the state department

before the rising.

Of course.

What's his name?

Madam President...

Where were you born?
What town?

- Please...
- What is your date of birth?

Your old social security number?

What is your daughter's name?

You won't win.

But you probably know
that by now.

You're just marking time.

You're a dead woman walking
to her own funeral.

Is there a way to kill it?

Not sure.

Sergeant Miller and his men
might know.

They have a unique profile
and understanding.

You're all dead!

All of you!

Each and every one of you!

Kill it?

You gotta take its head.
It's the only way.

Which means opening that door.

- Which I don't recommend.
- Right.

But if the Dark One
is dead

- then...
- We don't know that.

But that thing's still alive
and if we open that door

it'll try and kill all of us
the first chance it gets.

I agree,
Madam President.

So we're just to leave it
in that sealed room

until the end of time?

That does not sound like
an answer to me.

Until you get better intel
that's your only play.

If Hansen is dead then the only
ones who know anything

are his daughters.

What's their status?

Without a trauma team,
better facilities...

The Sunshine Unit.

That's where Hansen sent Doc.

Supposed to be some kinda
secret high‐level lab.

Yes, well, uh... they went
offline several days ago

and there hasn't been
any communication since.

I could lead a team.

It's not far from here.
Find out what happened.

They maybe... lost power,
had an equipment malfunction.

If that's the case I could
bring back a full triage unit,

get those girls stable,
get the answers you need.

I'm going with you.

I gotta find Doc.

This is not a mission
for civilians.

Madam President, I could
use the help.

He has unique abilities.

Same with the Sergeant.

Oorah.

I won't sit around here
on my ass.

Fine.

Put it in motion.

Gentlemen.

Madam.

Stay close.

We need to stick together.

What about those?

No idea.

I'm here.

I will guide you.

Trust me.

Did you hear that?

It sounded like...

It's Vanessa.

It's me.

I'm right here
with you.

Wait.

What if she's in here?

It's not her.

Follow, and all will
become clear.

Her voice.

It's coming from in there.

Jack, wait.

Come, my children.

It is time you knew everything.

Oh, you've come to kill me?

To do what the other
Van Helsings could not.

That's why we were made.

Is that what you believe?

That's what our father told us.

He sacrificed himself‐

So that you could die
for a lie?

Don't listen to her.

We just have to get close
to her and end this.

Well what if the end is merely
just the beginning?

I don't give a shit
about your riddles.

I welcome you here with open
arms and this is how you behave?

Oh, tsk, tsk, tsk.

We need help.

Abraham or Vanessa.

Your mother?

Sit with me.

I will not harm you.

Let me tell you
what you do not know.

You expect us to trust you?

In the end, if you wish,

I will bear my neck to you both
and you can fulfil your destiny.

But it may well be that the
destiny you have been told

is in fact not your destiny
at all.

Mind if I join you?

Are you two close?

Yes.

Oh, Violet, she saved my life.

Hmm.

But Jack just kinda gave it
back to me.

I owe them both,
everything.

And now there's nothing
I can do.

Ten years ago it was me

sitting beside a hospital bed,
powerless.

Praying for a miracle.

My son, Ben, was 12.

He was obsessed with baseball
and wrestling

and books about space travel.

I'll never forget when he hit
three home runs in one game.

The first time he told me
about kissing a girl.

Boy, you don't truly understand
how important those moments are

when they're happening

and how much they hurt
when all you have

is the memory to hang on to.

Um... why are you telling me
all of this?

Well, Ivory, it seems that
in all of this you are

about the closest thing I have
to an ally and I need your help.

Um... I don't think you
really realize‐

I know. I know what you were.

I saw the transformation
with my own eyes.

That's why I'm here.

I need to know everything
that you know.

What we may still be up against.

Those sisters,
what they can do.

That... thing we
have locked away.

Will you help me?

Quietly.

With great calm.

Fate unfolds.

Lies... lies... lies...

it's not‐ it's not the truth...
it's not the truth...

Lies... the truth...
it's not the truth...

Trust. Is it really
so impossible?

You're the reason our family
was ripped apart.

We need to kill her
before she kills us.

This is my domain.

If I wanted you dead
you already would be.

Sit!

Sit.

You need to understand
who your mother really is.

Just as it should be.

The three of us together.

This is Colonel Nicholson
from Bravo Company

calling Sunshine command
and control.

Does anybody copy?

I figured as we get closer we'd
get them on the short wave.

No dice.

How many people are we expecting
at this Sunshine Unit?

Keep six, threes and nines.

10‐4.

Main, support staff,
security detail,

about three dozen.

What if it's not
just a busted radio?

What then?

I will deal with worst case
scenario if it comes to it.

This whole thing is worst case
scenario at this point.

Your pessimism is contagious.

Sunshine Unit, come in.

Sunshine Unit, come in.

Okay, careful.

They still got power.

No signs of struggle.

Maybe they bugged out, or
retreated back to the facility.

Why?

I don't know.

Corporal, get the gate.

Take point.

Come on. Go, go, go.

What's this Sunshine Unit
up to, anyway?

Working on a solution.

We'll leave it at that.

More than just a solution.

This is the place
that blue shit, solicite,

got turned into a vaccine.

How do you know about that?

Avery and Hansen's files
from Fort Collins.

They went from repelling
vampires

to flat out killing them.

That's what Doc
got caught up in.

Judging by Denver that didn't
turn out so good.

The President was committed
to keeping all options open.

Then she saw that broadcast.

Violet turning vampires human.

Objectives changed.

What the hell is this?

This doesn't look so good.

What the hell are we dealing
with here?

Not a clue.

Spread out.

They're here. Go up.

Roger that.

Woah.

Daywalkers?

There's more over here.

Not a mark on 'em.

Still got their heads
but dead as disco.

What?

This powder, that some new
version of that blue shit?

Maybe they figured it out
this time.

Yeah.

Oh, oh.

Whoa, Julius.

Julius, you all right?

Yeah.

You good?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Just got a little dizzy.

I'm good.

I'm okay.

Jesus Christ!

Jesus Christ!

Goddammit.

Dammit.

We gotta take its head.

‐Nicholson!
‐Nicholson, get back here!

Goddammit!

Kill it!

No!

What the hell was that?

What the!

Axel! Axel!!

I think you got him!

Well, whatever this orange powder
did to the other daywalkers,

it sure as shit did the opposite
to that dude.

You okay?

Yeah.

That thing hit like
a sledgehammer.

You?

Yeah.

Axel?

What?

You ain't healing.

What the hell is happening
to us?

You don't know anything
about our mother.

Oh, sweet child.

Neither do you.

I know you took her from us.

Yes, indeed.

Your mother was taken from you.

Willem told you so many things,
didn't he?

Comforting stories to make
you comply,

to keep you from questions
he didn't want asked.

Like the fact we're
both Van Helsings,

your sworn enemy?

We know that's true.

Did he ever tell you how
you came to be as you are?

He showed us.

Honestly?

All truth?

Lies are like drops of rain.

A few of them seem not to matter
but enough of them,

and you can drown.

He showed you a fiction.

Perhaps now we could tell
the real story.

Dad.

Don't believe it, Jack.

You know she can get inside
our heads.

Jack.

Jack!

Jack, stay here!

As you wish.

She'll face the truth alone.

Do not want this.

Want must surrender to need.

Do not make me betray
them further.

Do you not see why we must?

You are one with me now,
not them.

And they will eternally
be our enemies.

There is only one way
to safeguard ourselves

against their threat.

When the time comes you
must use what I have given you.

The strength that I have bitten
into your blood.

Make what will bring me back
to this world.

Join with them.

Make me a part of them.

This is how we were made?

No.

It's not possible.

The Dark One was locked away
by Abraham centuries

before we were born.

She couldn't have.

I reached out to him much as
Bathory reached out to Vanessa,

or she reached out to you,
in dreams.

In whispered voices and wind.

No, Jack,
that's not real.

It's in your head.

Is it done?

As you demanded.

As I must.

For you are my master,
forever and always.

No.

You are his, theirs, mine.

Forever and always.

Everything he said,
a lie within a lie.

Jack, don't listen to her.

He sacrificed himself for us.

He made us.

We're Van Helsings.

You told me not to trust him.

Now I understand why.

Get your hands off her!

Save her from herself... Jack...

What?

Let me go!

Let me go!!

Let me go! Let me go!

Let me go!

Jack! Hey, hey.

Shh, it's okay, it's okay.

It's me. It's Ivory.

It's okay.

And then what happened?

My sister attacked her.

The Dark One?

The next thing I remember,

Violet had pinned her
to the ground.

How?

I don't know.

And were you or your sister
able to bite her?

Or be bitten?

What?

With the special coating
that you have in your blood

that Hansen designed.

So that you could kill
The Dark One.

She needs to rest.

And I promise there
will be time for that

but right now I need answers.

I need to know,
did you succeed?

Is the Dark One dead?

She's gone.

Gone forever.

Get off me!

Let me go!

Let me go!

I have to see‐

Stop!

I have to see Jack!

I tried sedating her
but it didn't last long.

She woke up and went crazy.

Some kind of psychotic break.

Give her a stronger dose.

You gotta listen to me!

You're all gonna die!

You're all gonna die!

Get off!

No!

No!

My sister... get off...

My sister...

My sister... I have
to save her...

Jack. Jack, listen to me.

We have to kill her.

It's no use.

I planted the seed for this
long ago in dreams.

In reality.

What're you talking about?

When you reached out to Abraham
I made contact with your sister.

Part of me entwined with her.

No.

She's too strong for that.

Is she‐

My beloved Bathory took her
on the next step.

She accessed her mind, leaving
the seed there to take root,

grow, thrive, until this time
came when we were reunited.

Hmm?

Jack.

Jack.

Fight this.

Fight her.

It's not too late for you
to join with us, you know.

Never gonna happen.

Oh, but it already has,
don't you see?

You both played
right into my hand.

Ah!

I laid a path
for you, as well, long ago.

No.

Violet. It's okay.

Don't be afraid.

No.

It wasn't you.

It was Vanessa.

I laid a trap for you both.

It brought you here to serve
in my salvation!

No!

You have made this
moment possible.

Your ignorant self believe
your father's foolishness.

He saw you for what you are.

A cancer to be cut out!

Willem turned against me.

He lacked faith in my supremacy.

Argh!!!

A piece of humanity
that never left his soul.

I offered him eternal life
and he threw it all away.

For what?

And now, my beloved,

it is time you serve
your purpose.

Oh, Abraham.

My saviour after all.

You've got the colour back
in your cheeks.

Good.

We'll get you to 100 percent
when we're back

in the real world.

Real world?

Well, we can't stay here,
Jack.

You're too crucial
to our objectives.

We need to take you
someplace safe

so we can talk about everything.

Notify my security detail.

Prep the chopper.

Wheels up in 30 minutes.

Yes, ma'am.

Well, what about me?

And Violet?

Ivory, you're mission critical.

I'm counting on your help.

We'll get her healthy,
I promise.

Don't worry.

We want the same things.

Madam President,

my sister, I'd like to see her
before we leave.

Of course.

Would you mind if we had
a moment?

Of course.

Hi, Violet.

I know you can hear me.

I just wanted to say
thank you.

If it weren't for you
I wouldn't be here.

But you shouldn't
have tried to stop me.

Once I opened that portal again
jumping in after me was futile.

Now you're trapped here.

Like this.

And I'm free.

We really need to be going.

Yes.

But a question.

Sure.

This real world, you are
in charge there?

Some would argue that,
but yes, I am.

And the people,
safe from all this?

How many?

Millions.

Why?

You must find that power
intoxicating.

Uh... Jack, you've...
you've been through a lot.

I'm sure this all must be very
confusing for you.

No, Madam President.

It's created a hunger.
A thirst.

Jack, what‐ stop this,
Jack.

I've had paupers and fools,
emperors and statesmen.

Power has a very unique taste.

But death, it's all the same.

Desperate and wanting.

Jack!

Where's Jack?

She's already on board
the helicopter.

So what're you doing here?

I came to see the captive
one last time.

I know what it's like
to be trapped.

The ache to be back with those
you love and desire.

The last time we saw each other

I had great reason
to be suspicious.

I made a mistake.

One I deeply regret.

You could atone for it.

Do you wish for that?

More than anything.

I swear it.

Release her.

Madam President?

You can't.

I can.

I am the president,
I can do as I wish.

Is it not your job to follow
my orders?

Then open the door
and let her out.

Don't do this, okay?

She's gonna kill all of you.

She told you that she would!

No!

Get her out of here!

No!

Hmm.

Ma'am.

You killed her.

She wanted me dead,
you hesitated.

You. Open the door.

Now!

Not a step closer.

You don't need your weapon
with her.

You see?

She's as meek as a baby lamb.

No, no, no.

Please.

Please untie me.

I'm sorry.

I have orders.

You put that needle
in her arm

and that's gonna be the last
thing you ever do.

Untie her.

Now!

Come on, come on.

There's gotta be somebody here.

Hey!

Hey!

Anybody in there?!

Axel, I...

Shit.

Axel...

Come here, buddy.

I can't. I can't.

Come on.

I... I...

What's happening?

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

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

Come on. Come on.

Come on! Come on!

Hey, Doc!

Doc?

If you're in there, open up.

Don't leave us out here.

We can't let them leave!

Where's Jack?

She never made it back!

She's trapped in the Dark Realm!

The grenade launcher!

Hey!

Hey!

Somebody let me out!

Somebody help!

Somebody!

Help!

Don't lose hope.

I'm right here.

...Somebody help!!!
