Van Helsing (2016–…): Season 4, Episode 6 - Miles and Miles - full transcript

Flesh and Axel rush through the desert to save Jennifer and her son from Max. Along the way, they encounter a new breed of vampires that turn deadlier when night falls.

Does someone here
take care of you?

Owen, get away from him.
He could hurt you.

Is he ours?

Another bus full of prisoners.

Where's it headed?

Denver's the other way.

Out there is just desert.

Axel.

Come on.

Nothin' seems to kill you,
does it?

Get away from him!



You, get in the car.

No!

Do what you said
and find us.

You. You follow me,
they both die.

He's going east, that's where
all his trucks went.

I'm not stopping
till I find 'em,

you know that, right?

Damn straight.

We should have spotted
her by now.

We will.

Maybe we missed the turn.

Maybe we lost them.

We didn't lose 'em.

This is the only road
they can be on, alright?



They haven't turned off,

or we would have seen their
tracks if they had.

We'll find them.

Maybe I just have to face
the fact that they're gone.

Hey, no.

She had a kid during
all this shit.

She raised him,
she protected him.

If I had to bet on anybody
surviving this it'd be her.

Why did it take you so long
to get us out of that place?

I'm gonna make it right.

I'm gonna find this prick
and then I'm gonna kill him.

No, no, no.

That's for me.

If that's the way you want it.

I gotta make it right, too.

What is that?

Stop!

He's a smart kid.

He left this on purpose.

Max is smarter.

That feels like bait to me.

Why would he want us
to follow him?

Look, it's the prison bus.

Well, they came through here,
alright.

Those are Jeep tracks.

They're fresh.

The bus looks empty.

That's what I'm afraid of.

So what do you think?

He took the Jeep up the road

and then doubled back around
to pick us off?

There's only one way
to find out.

You go left, I'll go right.

I got one dead guard over here,
armed.

I got one over here, too.

You wanna hang here?

I'll check inside.

Nothing.

Nobody's home.

They're gone.

So it was an ambush.

Okay, so well, you think
him and Max had them
wait here for us?

Until the vampires got to them.

We're gonna have to keep
our eye out for that, as well.

You know, I saw this bus leaving
the prison the day we broke in.

You sure?

Yeah.

It was filled with
injured prisoners

and old people.

Son of a bitch.

What?

What're you...
what're you thinking?

Jesus Christ.

, come on, Axel!

Give me something here!

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Listen, listen, listen.

He doesn't need them as
a hostage anymore, right?

Jennifer or Owen.

Right?

They're just a pain in the ass
at this point

so if he knows we're after them

why wouldn't he just drop them
off on the side of the road?

Right.

We find them we‐
we stop chasing him.

Exactly. We're out
of his hair for good.

So why set an ambush?

He's a... he's a psychopath,
Axel,

he doesn't think like
you and I, alright?

He's a crazy person.

He may be crackers
but he's not stupid.

If he's keeping them
it's for a reason.

Why do you think?

I don't know, but...

like these prisoners
on the bus,

it didn't matter if they were
small or old or sick.

He's using Jennifer and the kid
for the same thing

he was using these people for.

We're closing in on him, though.

These bodies are fresh.

Okay, I can't go through
this again, Axel, alright?

We're not gonna lose 'em.

I'm not gonna go on like this,
alright?

We're gonna find 'em!

This whole thing seems bad!

The whole thing seems‐

Down! Down!

That's a gunshot.

Shh!

It's them.

Phil's not ever gonna give up
on us, you know that.

He broke into a prison
to find us.

He let you do what
you did‐

Shut up.

Just let us go.

Then I'll stop bothering you and
Phil won't blow your head off.

Cute. Get back in the truck.

I have to pee.

Get back in the truck!

Bye, bye...

It's gonna be alright, okay?

We've always been fine
in the end,

we're gonna be fine
this time, too.

We have to kill him.

Shhh.

Don't you cause any trouble,
you hear me?

You do as I say,
when I say, okay?

Heroes.

Pain in my goddamn ass.

Move on over. You're driving.

Owen, put on your seatbelt.
Right now.

Fast. Hurry up.

Come on, baby. Come on, baby.
Come on, baby.

Come on, baby.

Hey.

You are gonna hang on
super tight, okay?

Where to?

Just keep driving straight
till I tell you otherwise.

Wait.

Why don't you get comfortable,
little buddy?

There's no need for seatbelts
when your mom is driving, right?

Do as he says, honey.

Nice try.

See up there?

What the hell is that?

A body.

Stop the truck.

Stop the truck!

It's not them!

Feeders, all of 'em.

They're not looking their best.

I guess the daywalkers
haven't made it this far yet.

No, they're all burned to
a crisp and put on display.

Someone's sending a message.

Yeah, it's a message for feeders
from feeders.

Is that a guess?

No, Julius used to do this
to mark our territory.

A warning to other kinds.

Other kinds?

That sounded awfully close.

Ho! Ho, ho. Ho.

Human!

Which is your toll?

He means us.

We have to pay our way
in blood.

Which pays the price?

Shit.

If he doesn't get one of us
he's gonna take both.

That doesn't sound good.

Alright, look, we book it
for the truck.

We get there, I got your six.

You're driving.

‐Now?
‐Now.

Run!

Kill them!

Come on!

Come on.

Come on!

Come on!

Shit!

Jesus Christ!

Son of a bitch!

Shit, shit, shit!

Go full bore, buddy!

They're coming in hot!

Don't waste your bullets.

Careful with your ammo!

Axel!

Heads‐up, buddy!

This is gonna leave a mark!

You were right about
that husband of yours.

Persistent son of a bitch, but
that's a way bigger bomb than...

Woah, hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey!

Easy, easy, easy.

Shoot me and say goodbye
to your best friend.

Give it to me.

Drop the gun.

Okay.

Give me the drugs.

Owen, listen to me.

That man who helped us
at the mine?

He's down in the valley.

I want you to run that way
and keep running,

you understand?

Go.

Now.

Come on, give me the drugs.

Give me the drugs! Now!

Not until he's safe.

Your husband's dead, sweetheart.

The kid's running to no one.

Phil can't die.

You know that better than me.

He certainly can if his head's
burned right off,

and judging by that explosion.

Wishful thinking.

Okay.

Maybe your husband made it.

Even so, it's getting dark,
honey.

You have no idea what's waiting
for that kid in the dark.

There are things that have live
in these canyons for years.

Adapting, learning,

figuring out ways to survive
when there aren't any.

Feed off a lost survivors,
trailer trash

who try to live out here,
little kids on the run.

You don't get a good meal
very often, you know.

So maybe, you know, maybe
they'll turn your little boy,

but they'll probably
just drink him dry.

Woah, hey.

He gets lost.

If he doesn't find your husband

he finds his charred,
decapitated remains.

Plenty of ways for him
to die out there,

all of them on you.

Owen, stop!

You know, you are very lucky
that I need you alive.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Thanks for the tip.

You need me alive, right?

You said so yourself.

That means both of us,
right?

What do you want us for,
anyway?

Where are you taking us?

Hey.

Welcome back.

What'd I miss?

The good news is the explosion
killed the vamps.

Except for that first one,
I think he slipped away.

Right.

And?

And I think I heard something
up there just now.

What?

A woman yelling.

Where?

Up there.

It's close, I just‐

I can't spot 'em.

They definitely saw that
fireball, though.

Then he knows
we're following him.

Or were.

We could use that to
our advantage, maybe.

Look, if we head out now
we can get there before dark.

No, I don't think so.

Rhonda's shot.

Both the gas tanks blew out.

Well, I mean, there's no‐

there's no way to get there
on foot.

Their fuel's not gonna
last forever, either.

We walk all night.

We'll find 'em.

You're willing to do that?

Of course.

We don't know what the hell's
out there.

We might not make it
through the night.

Death doesn't scare me anymore,
man.

Life, on the other hand...

That belonged to Scarlett,
right?

Vanessa's sister.

Leave it.

Listen, Axel, this hole
you're in now,

I've... I've been there, too.

You'll get out of it.

Not until I put this right.

We will.

Well, we got a long walk.

And wherever they're going
we better get there first.

Come on.

It's not safe out here.

Are you sure that's
a good idea?

Jesus mother...

Come on. Come on.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Remember, you leave the house,
your kid dies.

Simple as that.

Great.

Now, rest up.

Hell of a big day tomorrow.

The town looks completely
abandoned.

Yeah.

Any human from miles around
would go there to hole up.

And Max.

Get some sleep, okay?

Tell me about before.

Okay.

Before you were born,

when you were just little
in mommy's tummy,

there were no vampires.

And you had a brother
and a sister

who could play in the grass
and look at the stars

without any fear.

But they're gone now?

Yeah, they're gone now.

But they lived a life
you can't even imagine.

A life filled with happiness
and joy,

and a life that was safe
and warm,

and one day that life
will come back and be yours.

Really?

Really.

The sun will shine
and you'll go to school

and your friends will come over
and play

and you'll have cake and
presents on your birthday.

When?

Someday.

But until then we survive.

Every day.

We stay safe and stay smart
so we'll be alive

when the world's the way
it was before.

Okay?

Mom?

Yeah?

Is the man still helping?

Is he going to come?

Yeah, he is.

Axel!

You should have paid the toll!

Little shit!

Owen!

Owen!

The little shot me!

No, don't! He's just a kid!

Yeah, well it still
hurts, doesn't it?

You need him, Max.

Okay? Just calm down.

You need him alive, right?

Don't‐ don't screw
yourself over.

He shot me in the neck!

You need him.

Alright, get over here.

Go to your bed, now!

You were one of them,
weren't you?

Like Phil.

Yeah, best time of my life.

I was always a night owl anyway,
you know,

so losing the sun was never
a big deal.

Never get to sleep,
party never stops.

And blood?

Best high ever.

Get the kid. We're going.

But it's still dark out.
Didn't you‐

Now!

Now! Go!

Where the hell are my keys?

Come on, where the
are my keys?

Why does your blood not flow?

It's a long story.

No!

Axel!!!

We gotta get out of here!
We're so close!

Hey! Hey!

You ugly son of a bitch,
come here!

If you're so
goddamn thirsty.

Come on, go for the jugular.

Jesus Christ.

What the hell are you?

Hold him down!

Axel, we gotta go.
We...

It's almost dawn.

We're gonna lose them
if we don't go now.

Hey, hey, hey.

Just give me a minute.

I got an idea.

They're here.
They're still here.

Okay, stay cool.
This is no time to freak out.

Hey!

I go first.
I go first.

Okay.

Shit!

Son of a bitch!

Stay down!

He knows he can't kill me!

Yeah, but he knows he can
slow you down.

Come on, come on,
come on, come on.

He's tucked in between
those two buildings over there.

What're you doing?!

Axel!

What'd you do that for?!

He saw me.

He thinks I'm dead for sure now.

He doesn't know
I have what you‐

A!

Got a bonus kill on that one.

Too bad, too.

I liked that guy
before he tried to kill me.

You know that's not gonna
stop Phil.

Yeah, but it'll buy me
some time.

We're going to Matty's.

Who's Matty?

Don't you worry about it.

You'll have a very formal
introduction.

Let's go!

Left.

You cause any trouble I kill
the kid right here, right now.

You understand?

Good.

Matty! It's me, Max!

Open up!

Matty!

Max.

What the hell are you
doing here?

Why don't you get the hell
out here and find out?

Come on.

I need some of that fatty
blood you got.

Best of the bunch.

No, no, no, no, no.

No, I made a deal
with your men.

We're all squared up now,
up to date and done.

Well, something came up.

I need to get over the hills, I
gotta pay the piper on the way.

I got... I got other customers,
you know?

Hungriest biters in these parts.

Can't spare no more.

No more your way,
no way.

Matty.

You really wanna
turn that down?

Right up your alley,
meek as a kitten,

easy to handle.

Didn't cause me any trouble
on the road.

She doesn't have much meat
on her bones.

You can take care of that,

that's kind of your specialty,
right?

What do you say?

Throw in the boy,
you got a deal.

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

I got plans for him, okay?

Both of them or we're done.

Wanna bet on that?

'Cause you know
I love to gamble!

No, no, no!

You kill me, you're never gonna
make it out

of the badlands alive.

The vamps will revenge ya.

They need me and you know it.

Do I?

What's a little game of sport
between friends, right?

God!

Gotcha. Your turn.

Pay or play, Matty.
What's it gonna be?

Deal.

Sweet.

No problem.

Give me the kid.

No.

It's coming with me.
You're staying here.

No! No!

Stop! Stop!

Easy! Listen to me!

You lost!

Okay? Good fight.

You put up a good fight,
but you lost.

No.

Do you want him to see you
die first?

Would that be better?

You're not stupid.

You know that's the only
choice here.

Either you let him leave here
with me

or he watches me tear you
apart first.

What's it gonna be?

Let me say goodbye.

Tell him to behave himself.

Owen, come here, honey.

You're gonna have to go
with Max for a little bit.

It won't be long, I promise,
okay?

Just go with Max and stay
out of trouble.

Give me the jars.

Give them to me in a bag
or something.

As soon as he gets drunk again

you run back here
as fast as you can.

I will get him, mom.

I know you will.

Pitter patter,
let's get at 'er.

Have fun, Matty.

Come on.

If you try to kill me I swear
to god you'll get more

than you bargained for.

I'm not gonna kill you, honey.

God no.

Not for a good,
long while at least.

Open up.

In you go.

Hello!

Hello!

Woah, woah, woah there.

Ha. Woah.

Give me a second.

Got me at an awkward
moment there,

if you know what I mean.

What're you doing
all the way out here?

Minding my own business.

I suggest you do the same.

I'm looking for a woman
and her son.

Have you seen them?

I think you might have
seen them.

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

No one but me here.

See, that's the way
I like it.

Ho, ho, ho.

Easy now.

Drop the weapon.

Drop it.

Okay.

You cry out, you die.
You got me?

Are they inside?

They're gone.

Took some water and headed off,
both of them.

Axel, look at that gear.

The prisoners in the bus.

Alright, the truth this time.

Are they inside?

I already told you,
they're gone.

Flesh, hold up. Hold up!

Owen!

You don't want him
to go in there alone.

Owen! Jennifer!

On your knees. Now!

Okay! Okay.

Owen!

Jennifer?

Jennifer?

Jennifer!

Jennifer!

Owen!

Jennifer!

Owen!

Jennifer!

Jen!

Owen!

Jennifer?

Jennifer?

Jennifer!

Owen!

I can give you all the blood
you need.

Fatty blood.

They love that shit.
They can feed off it for days.

Where's Max?

You know what he'll do to me.
He'll kill me slow.

He'll... he'll cut me alive.

I could kill you right now,
how'd that be?

Where are they?!

Jennifer!

Jennifer!

Jennifer!

I got you.

Don't worry, I got you.

It's okay, it's okay.

Max took Owen!

It's okay. You're gonna be okay.

He took him!

We have to‐

Come on, we gotta go.
Let's go!

Okay, that's all I know,
I promise.

I swear. You pay the toll
and you get across.

They're headed for the river.

This asshole's got a pick‐up
truck in the shed.

Supposed to be some kind of
vampire‐free promised land.

This man is a
psychopath.

Come on now‐

Let's go.

Stop dragging your feet.

Let me go!

Don't you worry, you'll be
rid of me soon enough.

Look.

Kid.

I know that life has taken
a bad turn on you recently.

I feel bad about that,
really I do.

Look, I was a kid
like you once.

I know what it feels like
when everything turns shitty,

and trust me.

You'll like where we're going,
I promise.

Mom!

Shit!

You want some?!

Owen!

Goddammit!

Come and get it!

I'm gonna take care of things
this time.

You have to trust me.

Go get our son.

Woah, woah, woah,
woah, woah.

Any closer and he dies.

Hand him over!

You really sure about that shot?

I mean, sure.

One to the head might put me
down for a little bit

but what if you miss?

See that?

I got no choice.

Neither do I!

I have to pay the toll.

He's coming with us!

What is that supposed to be,
moxie?

I hate moxie.

Hey, hey. I got two
gallons of the fatty blood
and this little one.

Okay? All I want
is safe passage.

Woah!

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah!

Easy!

You wanna bring the rest of them
down here?

Hey, hey. Listen to me,
listen to me.

I'm not with them, okay?
Do we have a deal?

Sounds good.

Owen! Owen! Owen!

Owen!

Hurts, doesn't it?

You bastard.

You sly bastard.

I knew the second
I laid eyes on you

you were one tough
son of a bitch.

And I knew you were
an asshole.

Whatever.

That was then.

So what?

You gonna finish me?

I was turned into a vampire
at the citadel.

Turned by Dmitri himself.

I turned back the day
of the rebellion attack

by the one they whisper about.

And then I was turned into
whatever the hell this is

by a daywalker.

Shit.

Shit.

Shit, shit, shit.

I've been everything
you could be.

May as well try dead.

I'd like to oblige, but I
promised that privilege

to someone else.

Don't look, it's okay.

Well, that'll do 'er.

Yeah.

Rot in hell, Max.

That's too good for him.

Thank you.

Just righting a wrong.

The least I could do.

The pain'll ease,
time helps.

You don't think it will
but it does.

My children, they're...

they're still with me sometimes.

What is this?

I'm out.

I'm done.

I can't go back there.

I'm not sure that's a choice
you get to make.

I think it is.

I'm gonna cross that river,
I'm gonna take my chances

and I'm gonna...

I'm gonna take care of them
if they'll let me.

What about you?

Same thing I always do.

Get back in the fight.

Right.

I'll pick up who's ever
left alive

back at the farm on the way.

Yeah.

Thanks, man.

Take care of them.

I will.

You came.

That's right.

And I think that this is yours.

Wait.

These are Max's.

Woah!

Well done.

Hey, Axel!

Keys to the Jeep!

You are a smart kid, Owen.

You can call me Phil, yeah?

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.
