1
00:00:02,937 --> 00:00:04,036
Previously on Legacies...
Penelope is leaving the school.
2
00:00:04,046 --> 00:00:05,337
Oh, yeah. I knew that.
3
00:00:05,414 --> 00:00:08,040
You never consider anybody's
feelings but your own.
4
00:00:08,050 --> 00:00:09,374
It's a log of everything
5
00:00:09,385 --> 00:00:10,959
written down
at the Salvatore School,
6
00:00:11,036 --> 00:00:13,462
and I want you to read
what your dad wrote
7
00:00:13,538 --> 00:00:15,088
about something called
the Merge.
8
00:00:15,099 --> 00:00:16,081
What's Malivore?
9
00:00:16,158 --> 00:00:17,799
It's a hell dimension
10
00:00:17,876 --> 00:00:19,134
that consumes creatures
and wipes their existence
11
00:00:19,211 --> 00:00:20,719
from the collective conscience.
12
00:00:20,730 --> 00:00:22,971
I don't even know how long
I was in Malivore.
13
00:00:23,048 --> 00:00:25,140
And then, one day,
I found myself back here.
14
00:00:25,217 --> 00:00:26,250
I was pregnant.
15
00:00:26,326 --> 00:00:27,401
So Landon is the, uh,
16
00:00:27,478 --> 00:00:29,728
supernatural
immaculate conception?
17
00:00:29,739 --> 00:00:32,022
You are keeping a
secret about my mom?
18
00:00:32,099 --> 00:00:34,232
I can't be here right now.
Landon. Landon!
19
00:00:34,243 --> 00:00:36,076
Your asset failed
her retrieval mission.
20
00:00:36,153 --> 00:00:38,078
I cleaned up her mess.
21
00:00:43,753 --> 00:00:46,161
Usual debrief before
you throw him into the pit.
22
00:00:46,238 --> 00:00:48,163
Find out where he's from.
Family.
23
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,916
Any other phoenixes
he's willing to give up.
24
00:00:50,926 --> 00:00:52,834
Then ask him about the knife.
25
00:00:52,911 --> 00:00:54,002
As in the knife?
26
00:00:54,013 --> 00:00:55,212
When I was
at the school,
27
00:00:55,288 --> 00:00:57,047
I heard he tried to steal it.
28
00:00:57,124 --> 00:00:58,599
And I'd like to know
why he wanted
29
00:00:58,675 --> 00:00:59,933
one of the locks to the pit.
30
00:01:00,010 --> 00:01:02,052
Shouldn't be
too difficult.
31
00:01:02,129 --> 00:01:04,730
He recorded the voice mail
with minimal resistance.
32
00:01:32,209 --> 00:01:33,759
No one's watching us now.
33
00:01:35,162 --> 00:01:36,470
Look,
34
00:01:36,547 --> 00:01:38,013
I already told the other guys
I don't know anything.
35
00:01:42,210 --> 00:01:43,593
You can kill me,
but I'm part phoenix,
36
00:01:43,670 --> 00:01:45,479
so I'm just gonna come back
to life
37
00:01:45,556 --> 00:01:47,139
in a burst of flames, and
there's gonna be a lot of ash
38
00:01:47,149 --> 00:01:48,723
to clean up. And
after I come back,
39
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,642
I'm not gonna
know anything.
40
00:01:50,653 --> 00:01:52,986
I'm not here to interrogate you,
Landon.
41
00:01:53,063 --> 00:01:54,896
In fact, I'm here
42
00:01:54,973 --> 00:01:56,406
so you can finally get
some answers.
43
00:02:02,689 --> 00:02:04,447
When they created
the locks to Malivore,
44
00:02:04,524 --> 00:02:06,158
they also created decoys
45
00:02:06,168 --> 00:02:09,828
so no one would know which three
artifacts were the real thing.
46
00:02:09,839 --> 00:02:12,122
I think you might be able
to help me with that.
47
00:02:12,199 --> 00:02:15,292
Is one of these artifacts
calling to you?
48
00:02:15,368 --> 00:02:17,177
Like a whisper,
49
00:02:17,254 --> 00:02:19,462
an itch?
50
00:02:19,539 --> 00:02:21,181
A) I don't feel
anything.
51
00:02:21,258 --> 00:02:22,966
And B) even if I did,
I'm not helping
52
00:02:23,043 --> 00:02:24,685
the people who kidnapped me.
53
00:02:24,761 --> 00:02:26,136
Oh, this isn't for Triad.
54
00:02:26,213 --> 00:02:28,430
No, they want these artifacts
to stay hidden.
55
00:02:28,506 --> 00:02:30,098
To be clear,
56
00:02:30,175 --> 00:02:32,184
I want to toss them into the pit
57
00:02:32,194 --> 00:02:34,144
and unlock Malivore.
58
00:02:34,221 --> 00:02:35,529
Wow.
59
00:02:35,606 --> 00:02:36,947
Uh...
60
00:02:38,516 --> 00:02:39,658
Thanks for being honest.
61
00:02:39,735 --> 00:02:41,193
That's refreshing.
62
00:02:41,203 --> 00:02:43,486
But now I'm really not going
to help you.
63
00:02:43,563 --> 00:02:45,372
I'll tell you a story.
64
00:02:45,449 --> 00:02:47,374
And at the end of it,
you can decide whether you want
65
00:02:47,451 --> 00:02:48,783
to help me or not.
You think a story
66
00:02:48,860 --> 00:02:50,994
is gonna change my mind?
This one will.
67
00:02:51,071 --> 00:02:54,006
Because it's the story
of your father.

Yo, how long
have I been here?
96
00:04:20,168 --> 00:04:22,469
For an hour. But you've been
going through the motions
97
00:04:22,546 --> 00:04:24,337
like a zombie.
98
00:04:24,414 --> 00:04:26,131
You sure you're okay?
99
00:04:26,141 --> 00:04:28,633
Yeah, I'm fine.
And, look,
100
00:04:28,644 --> 00:04:30,385
you don't need to pretend
like you give a crap about me
101
00:04:30,462 --> 00:04:31,561
just 'cause I'm your alpha.
102
00:04:35,651 --> 00:04:37,642
The game's back on.
Come on.
103
00:04:39,396 --> 00:04:41,154
Hey, Ric.
Sorry to take off like that,
104
00:04:41,231 --> 00:04:42,605
but I just needed a little time.
105
00:04:42,682 --> 00:04:44,607
So I'm going camping
for a while.
106
00:04:44,684 --> 00:04:47,610
Hopefully I can catch up
on classwork later.
107
00:04:47,687 --> 00:04:50,739
Tell Raf and Jed hi for me.
108
00:04:51,816 --> 00:04:53,241
Jed?
109
00:04:53,318 --> 00:04:54,909
Why would he say hi to Jed?
110
00:04:54,986 --> 00:04:56,244
You should go
after him.
111
00:04:56,321 --> 00:04:57,337
Something doesn't make sense.
112
00:04:57,414 --> 00:04:59,247
Hope...
Triad already tried
to come
113
00:04:59,324 --> 00:05:01,341
for him once.
It's not safe for him out there.
We kept
114
00:05:01,418 --> 00:05:04,085
a massive secret from him, and
I think he just needs some time
115
00:05:04,162 --> 00:05:06,013
to process that.
I think we should respect
116
00:05:06,089 --> 00:05:08,265
his privacy and just wait.
117
00:05:20,270 --> 00:05:21,686
I know that look.
118
00:05:21,697 --> 00:05:23,313
What's wrong?
119
00:05:23,390 --> 00:05:26,024
These kids have been through
so much lately.
120
00:05:26,035 --> 00:05:28,777
I've done all I can
to help Rafael,
121
00:05:28,853 --> 00:05:31,696
but the side effects of
Hope's elixir are getting worse.
122
00:05:31,707 --> 00:05:33,448
He's losing time,
123
00:05:33,525 --> 00:05:35,200
having flashes of aggression.
124
00:05:35,210 --> 00:05:37,452
I think he's still sliding
between his wolf mind
125
00:05:37,529 --> 00:05:38,620
and his human mind.
126
00:05:38,696 --> 00:05:40,547
I will--
I'll keep an eye on him.
127
00:05:40,624 --> 00:05:42,374
You've been running on fumes
these past few weeks.
128
00:05:42,450 --> 00:05:45,385
It wouldn't hurt to bring in
someone else to help,
129
00:05:45,462 --> 00:05:48,463
maybe even assist in
researching Rafael's condition.
130
00:05:48,540 --> 00:05:50,298
Dorian is too proud
to come back.
131
00:05:50,375 --> 00:05:51,841
You know that.
And you know
132
00:05:51,918 --> 00:05:53,551
how much I respect you.
133
00:05:53,562 --> 00:05:57,689
But are you sure it's his pride
that's the problem?
134
00:06:01,928 --> 00:06:03,853
Was there a monster
attack in here?
135
00:06:03,930 --> 00:06:05,188
There you are.
136
00:06:05,265 --> 00:06:06,356
I got tired of waiting,
so I attempted
137
00:06:06,367 --> 00:06:07,741
a banana cream pie by myself.
138
00:06:07,818 --> 00:06:09,067
Where is it?
139
00:06:09,078 --> 00:06:10,568
In the garbage.
I said "attempted."
140
00:06:10,579 --> 00:06:12,070
So we're gonna go back
to plan A,
141
00:06:12,081 --> 00:06:14,197
and you are gonna make it
for me.
142
00:06:14,274 --> 00:06:16,416
Status update: Josie
didn't come back last night.
143
00:06:16,493 --> 00:06:18,535
I think she slept
in Penelope's old room,
144
00:06:18,611 --> 00:06:21,204
which is a really good way
to get hepatitis B.
145
00:06:21,281 --> 00:06:23,248
Have you slept at all?
You seem a little...
146
00:06:23,258 --> 00:06:25,166
Focused? Motivated? On point?
147
00:06:25,243 --> 00:06:27,919
Sure. Yeah.
Not sleeping
in the same bedroom means
148
00:06:27,930 --> 00:06:29,596
that Twin Forgiveness Cuddle
is off the table.
149
00:06:29,673 --> 00:06:31,714
But she's been holed up
in the library,
150
00:06:31,791 --> 00:06:34,592
so a snack offering
should do the trick.
151
00:06:34,603 --> 00:06:36,937
At some point, you might
actually have to apologize.
152
00:06:37,013 --> 00:06:39,097
Never apologize.
153
00:06:39,108 --> 00:06:40,849
Okay.
Trust me, okay?
154
00:06:40,925 --> 00:06:42,943
This is what we do.
I'm selfish,
155
00:06:43,019 --> 00:06:44,519
then she sulks,
156
00:06:44,530 --> 00:06:46,563
and then I offer baked goods.
157
00:06:46,573 --> 00:06:48,731
Someone else's baked goods.
It's giving you
158
00:06:48,808 --> 00:06:50,617
something to do with yourself,
isn't it?
159
00:06:50,694 --> 00:06:52,110
Your turn for an update.
160
00:06:52,121 --> 00:06:54,028
Any word
161
00:06:54,105 --> 00:06:55,947
from our mop-headed elf?
162
00:06:55,958 --> 00:06:58,575
He says he needs time to think.
163
00:06:58,651 --> 00:07:00,410
Hmm.
I don't know. I feel
like if I could
164
00:07:00,487 --> 00:07:03,296
figure out the right thing
to say, then he'd come back.
165
00:07:03,373 --> 00:07:04,965
So, practice.
166
00:07:06,284 --> 00:07:07,292
Emma has this prism
167
00:07:07,302 --> 00:07:09,752
that simulates a conversation.
168
00:07:09,829 --> 00:07:11,421
She makes me use it
169
00:07:11,498 --> 00:07:14,474
to talk to my mom and my dad
when I'm in a state.
170
00:07:14,551 --> 00:07:17,594
I'll trade you one prism
171
00:07:17,670 --> 00:07:19,980
for a banana cream pie.
172
00:07:26,846 --> 00:07:28,738
♪ ♪
173
00:07:43,029 --> 00:07:45,288
I brought you some brain food.
174
00:07:45,365 --> 00:07:46,381
I'm not hungry.
175
00:07:47,700 --> 00:07:49,417
It's all your favorite things.
176
00:07:49,494 --> 00:07:51,386
Which I'm sure
somebody else had to tell you.
177
00:07:59,629 --> 00:08:02,639
No offense, but I'm not gonna
believe anything you say.
178
00:08:02,715 --> 00:08:04,474
I mean,
A-plus for manipulation, man.
179
00:08:04,551 --> 00:08:06,276
This is really
frightening stuff, but...
180
00:08:14,060 --> 00:08:16,027
Where did you get this?
181
00:08:16,038 --> 00:08:18,205
It's all part of what
I'm about to tell you.
Look,
182
00:08:18,281 --> 00:08:19,764
I already know about my dad.
183
00:08:19,766 --> 00:08:21,866
My mom got pregnant by one
of the monsters in Malivore.
184
00:08:21,877 --> 00:08:23,877
Well,
185
00:08:23,954 --> 00:08:26,421
then he'll be easy to spot
in my story.
186
00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:30,416
Around a millennia ago,
187
00:08:30,493 --> 00:08:34,003
in certain parts of the world,
there were monsters.
188
00:08:39,419 --> 00:08:41,010
And in one region...
189
00:08:43,807 --> 00:08:45,848
...there was no monster
more terrifying
190
00:08:45,925 --> 00:08:47,192
than dragons.
191
00:08:56,411 --> 00:08:58,528
On their own,
no faction was any match
192
00:08:58,605 --> 00:09:00,080
for dragons.
193
00:09:00,156 --> 00:09:04,084
So an unholy alliance
was formed.
194
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,369
A witch,
195
00:09:06,446 --> 00:09:08,913
a werewolf and a vampire...
196
00:09:08,924 --> 00:09:11,174
Walked into a bar. I think
I've heard this one before.
197
00:09:13,119 --> 00:09:15,095
Sorry.
198
00:09:20,126 --> 00:09:22,051
The Triad combined their blood,
199
00:09:22,128 --> 00:09:23,720
using black magic
200
00:09:23,796 --> 00:09:26,648
to create a golem capable
of consuming the dragons.
201
00:09:36,526 --> 00:09:40,361
They spelled the creature
to have an insatiable hunger.
202
00:09:40,372 --> 00:09:43,573
But their spell also made it
unable to harm witches,
203
00:09:43,650 --> 00:09:45,575
werewolves, or vampires.
204
00:09:48,130 --> 00:09:50,797
They named it Eater of the Dark.
205
00:09:50,874 --> 00:09:53,300
When the dragons,
206
00:09:53,376 --> 00:09:56,210
in human form, returned
to collect the treasure
207
00:09:56,287 --> 00:09:59,464
from all the villages
they had attacked,
208
00:09:59,474 --> 00:10:01,257
it was waiting for them.
209
00:10:07,465 --> 00:10:09,307
It took them,
210
00:10:09,318 --> 00:10:11,901
consumed them.
211
00:10:18,827 --> 00:10:20,610
To their surprise,
212
00:10:20,687 --> 00:10:22,278
the creature was more effective
than they could have dreamed.
213
00:10:22,355 --> 00:10:24,497
After the dragons were gone,
214
00:10:24,574 --> 00:10:26,333
it kept eating every monster
it could,
215
00:10:26,409 --> 00:10:29,461
swallowing them into
an endless space inside itself.
216
00:10:29,537 --> 00:10:31,162
You're saying
that the golem ate my dad?
217
00:10:31,173 --> 00:10:33,164
No, Landon.
218
00:10:33,175 --> 00:10:35,175
Your father is the golem.
219
00:10:37,036 --> 00:10:39,679
The Eater of the Dark.
220
00:10:46,838 --> 00:10:48,262
Hi.
Hi.
221
00:10:48,339 --> 00:10:50,598
Knock yourself out.
222
00:10:50,675 --> 00:10:52,475
The first time's
kind of freaky,
223
00:10:52,552 --> 00:10:54,686
because you're basically
talking to your subconscious.
224
00:10:54,696 --> 00:10:57,647
Thanks. This is for you.
225
00:10:57,724 --> 00:10:59,357
I saw your dad reading it.
He keeps it
226
00:10:59,368 --> 00:11:01,776
locked up in his office,
so it's bound to have something
227
00:11:01,853 --> 00:11:03,444
about that Merge thing
Josie's looking for.
228
00:11:03,521 --> 00:11:05,613
For once, your weird
relationship with my dad
229
00:11:05,690 --> 00:11:07,615
actually comes in handy.
230
00:11:07,692 --> 00:11:10,034
Right. Uh, just be careful.
231
00:11:10,045 --> 00:11:12,203
If your dad's
hiding something,
232
00:11:12,214 --> 00:11:14,622
I'm sure it's for
a good reason.
233
00:11:14,699 --> 00:11:16,624
I'm sure I can handle it,
whatever it is.
234
00:11:16,701 --> 00:11:20,053
I just have this feeling
that everything is gonna
work out just fine.
235
00:11:20,130 --> 00:11:22,463
Can you feel it? It's like
the whole school is vibrating.
236
00:11:22,540 --> 00:11:25,517
We're both gonna get
our people back.
237
00:11:52,921 --> 00:11:54,754
Hey there.
238
00:11:54,831 --> 00:11:56,715
Hey.
239
00:11:58,927 --> 00:12:00,460
Are you okay?
240
00:12:00,470 --> 00:12:01,428
Yeah.
241
00:12:01,504 --> 00:12:03,004
Yeah. Sorry.
242
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:04,672
Um...
243
00:12:04,749 --> 00:12:08,050
this is my first time talking
to a magical hologram.
244
00:12:08,127 --> 00:12:10,437
Hologram?
245
00:12:10,513 --> 00:12:11,888
What do you mean, a hologram?
What does that mean?
246
00:12:11,964 --> 00:12:13,890
That I'm not real?
What are you talking about?
247
00:12:15,444 --> 00:12:16,684
Oh, my God, don't do that.
248
00:12:16,761 --> 00:12:18,111
Sorry.
Yeah.
249
00:12:18,188 --> 00:12:20,354
You just seemed tense.
I was trying to break the ice.
250
00:12:20,431 --> 00:12:23,783
Well, at least I know this is a
pretty accurate version of you.
251
00:12:23,860 --> 00:12:25,526
You can thank yourself
for that, I guess.
252
00:12:25,603 --> 00:12:28,196
You had something you
wanted to say to me?
253
00:12:28,272 --> 00:12:30,072
Yeah. Um...
254
00:12:30,149 --> 00:12:32,283
I should have told you
about your mom
255
00:12:32,294 --> 00:12:33,910
and-and the whole thing earlier.
256
00:12:33,986 --> 00:12:36,954
I mean, I was just trying
to protect you from being hurt.
257
00:12:36,965 --> 00:12:38,581
So I just wanted to say
258
00:12:38,658 --> 00:12:42,126
that I'm sorry if I hurt you.
259
00:12:42,137 --> 00:12:44,253
What, that's it?
260
00:12:44,330 --> 00:12:45,963
You're "sorry if
261
00:12:45,974 --> 00:12:47,256
I hurt you"?
262
00:12:47,333 --> 00:12:48,633
I am.
Okay, then I
263
00:12:48,643 --> 00:12:50,643
accept your apology if
you're actually sorry.
264
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,053
What's your problem?
I mean, do you
265
00:12:52,129 --> 00:12:53,596
seriously think that speech
would have worked on me?
266
00:12:53,673 --> 00:12:54,773
I mean, come on,
that's not what you
267
00:12:54,849 --> 00:12:56,316
actually wanted to say.
How would you know?
268
00:12:56,392 --> 00:12:57,475
Because I am you, remember?
269
00:12:57,486 --> 00:12:59,477
Fine.
270
00:12:59,488 --> 00:13:01,771
Then you tell me what it is that
I want to say, and I'll say it.
271
00:13:01,848 --> 00:13:03,490
That's not how this works, Hope.
You have to listen.
272
00:13:03,566 --> 00:13:04,690
Listen to what?
273
00:13:07,237 --> 00:13:09,904
Even fake you is infuriating.
274
00:13:09,981 --> 00:13:11,164
God!
275
00:13:11,241 --> 00:13:12,999
How can something
that's basically
276
00:13:13,076 --> 00:13:15,168
a mud robot
be my father?
277
00:13:16,821 --> 00:13:19,789
Because it
didn't stay a golem.
278
00:13:19,866 --> 00:13:23,084
With each monster's DNA
it absorbed...
279
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,752
it evolved.
280
00:13:24,829 --> 00:13:27,755
Eventually,
it became sentient...
281
00:13:27,832 --> 00:13:30,350
aware.
282
00:13:30,426 --> 00:13:33,135
He was truly alive.
283
00:13:33,212 --> 00:13:35,012
And when the region
was cleared of all the monsters,
284
00:13:35,023 --> 00:13:37,357
the Triad wanted
to return him back to mud.
285
00:13:37,433 --> 00:13:39,141
Since they were the ones
who created him,
286
00:13:39,218 --> 00:13:41,194
only they could destroy him.
287
00:13:41,271 --> 00:13:43,646
All they needed to do
was wipe away the symbol
288
00:13:43,723 --> 00:13:45,189
on his forehead.
289
00:13:48,895 --> 00:13:51,112
But he betrayed his creators.
290
00:13:51,188 --> 00:13:55,449
He made a deal
with all the humans he'd saved.
291
00:13:55,526 --> 00:13:57,869
They could not let
their new god
292
00:13:57,879 --> 00:13:59,829
be taken from them.
293
00:13:59,906 --> 00:14:03,049
The humans set him free
to wander the earth
and continue consuming,
294
00:14:03,126 --> 00:14:06,594
erasing all memory
that the monsters ever existed.
295
00:14:09,707 --> 00:14:11,966
But over time...
296
00:14:12,043 --> 00:14:14,343
like Adam
in the Garden of Eden,
297
00:14:14,420 --> 00:14:17,397
he realized he was alone.
298
00:14:17,473 --> 00:14:20,775
So he did what all creations
eventually do.
299
00:14:22,863 --> 00:14:24,571
Create.
300
00:14:25,815 --> 00:14:27,732
He fashioned beings like him.
301
00:14:27,742 --> 00:14:29,734
His children.
302
00:14:29,744 --> 00:14:31,861
- A lineage that could...
- Man...
303
00:14:31,938 --> 00:14:33,863
You were doing so good
up until that part.
304
00:14:33,940 --> 00:14:36,082
I was almost into it,
as far as origin stories go,
305
00:14:36,159 --> 00:14:37,867
but you're asking me
to believe that I'm
306
00:14:37,944 --> 00:14:40,211
a magical mud man
with implanted memories.
307
00:14:42,832 --> 00:14:44,832
Quite the opposite.
308
00:14:44,909 --> 00:14:46,542
You see...
309
00:14:46,619 --> 00:14:48,928
all the children he
fashioned were imperfect.
310
00:14:49,005 --> 00:14:51,422
Flawed. None of them
had his powers.
311
00:14:51,433 --> 00:14:54,091
All of them had weaknesses
and all were sterile,
312
00:14:54,102 --> 00:14:57,812
unable to reproduce
and continue his legacy.
313
00:15:00,901 --> 00:15:04,268
He was created to be the
only one of his kind.
314
00:15:04,279 --> 00:15:06,771
He was never intended
to be a species
315
00:15:06,781 --> 00:15:09,115
or have a bloodline
of his own.
316
00:15:11,310 --> 00:15:13,110
But...
317
00:15:13,121 --> 00:15:15,997
he found a way to
reproduce biologically.
318
00:15:18,317 --> 00:15:21,127
To have a son who
was part human.
319
00:15:21,204 --> 00:15:23,630
A son who was perfect.
320
00:15:24,925 --> 00:15:27,041
A son who could
live forever
321
00:15:27,118 --> 00:15:29,085
and continue the species.
322
00:15:29,095 --> 00:15:32,221
You are what he's been trying
to create his entire life.
323
00:15:43,318 --> 00:15:45,726
I was trying
to be all coy.
324
00:15:45,803 --> 00:15:48,813
Here. It's a secret book
from Dad's study--
I know you're looking into
325
00:15:48,823 --> 00:15:50,272
this Merge crap,
326
00:15:50,349 --> 00:15:53,442
so I just want
a little credit for helping.
327
00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:55,778
Did you stop to think that
maybe I didn't want your help,
328
00:15:55,855 --> 00:15:57,071
that maybe I
wanted something,
329
00:15:57,148 --> 00:15:59,115
anything that was
entirely my own?
330
00:15:59,191 --> 00:16:01,334
Is this about having
separate rooms?
331
00:16:01,411 --> 00:16:03,119
That's fine, okay?
Just take Penelope's.
332
00:16:03,129 --> 00:16:05,338
You seriously
still don't get it.
333
00:16:05,415 --> 00:16:07,173
This isn't about needing space.
334
00:16:07,250 --> 00:16:09,509
This is about
every waking moment of my life
335
00:16:09,585 --> 00:16:11,010
being suffocated by you.
336
00:16:11,087 --> 00:16:12,837
We shouldn't just
have our own rooms.
337
00:16:12,913 --> 00:16:15,014
We should have our own lives.
338
00:16:15,091 --> 00:16:17,266
We should be our own people.
339
00:16:19,211 --> 00:16:21,303
You know, I've told
my fair share of lies,
340
00:16:21,380 --> 00:16:24,357
and the best lie is one
that someone already
wants to believe.
341
00:16:24,434 --> 00:16:26,434
And you're asking
me to believe that
342
00:16:26,510 --> 00:16:28,695
the father that I've
been looking for for years
343
00:16:28,771 --> 00:16:30,863
has actually
been searching for me?
344
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:34,525
Why should I believe you?
345
00:16:34,536 --> 00:16:36,318
Because I was there.
346
00:16:36,395 --> 00:16:38,371
Over the years,
his attempts at children
347
00:16:38,448 --> 00:16:40,448
became more refined,
348
00:16:40,524 --> 00:16:43,117
indistinguishable
from humans.
349
00:16:43,194 --> 00:16:46,379
Our father is
a very gifted artist.
350
00:16:46,456 --> 00:16:48,164
Our father?
351
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,498
Yes...
352
00:16:49,575 --> 00:16:51,217
little brother.
353
00:16:51,294 --> 00:16:53,011
Like I said...
354
00:16:54,681 --> 00:16:57,015
...I was there.

00:17:11,388 --> 00:17:12,563

It's fine.
It'll pass.

No,

I just, I need to find out
what this Merge thing is, okay?
363

it's a spell

that she's gonna use
to just leave
365
00:17:33,410 --> 00:17:34,627
or break us up
or something!
366
00:17:36,839 --> 00:17:39,548
All right, deep breaths.
Deep breaths.
367
00:17:39,625 --> 00:17:41,592
I'll call my Aunt Freya-- she'll
know something about the Merge.

Okay.

371
00:17:49,519 --> 00:17:51,277
Hey.
372
00:17:51,354 --> 00:17:55,106
Shouldn't you be hanging out
with your new best friend?
373
00:17:55,116 --> 00:17:56,732
Oh, that's actually
why I'm here.
374
00:17:56,809 --> 00:17:59,068
I-I think some sort
of crash is brewing.
375
00:17:59,145 --> 00:18:01,287
Then you should stay away.
376
00:18:03,533 --> 00:18:06,617
Um, look, I know that
you're mad at her,
377
00:18:06,628 --> 00:18:09,537
but... she's still
your sister,
378
00:18:09,613 --> 00:18:12,039
and she really
needs your help.
Why?
379
00:18:12,116 --> 00:18:13,958
She did this to herself.
380
00:18:13,968 --> 00:18:16,293
What? She can't control
her brain chemistry.
381
00:18:16,304 --> 00:18:18,379
She can choose to take
her medication.
382
00:18:18,455 --> 00:18:20,965
She hasn't taken it
since we saw her mom,
because she doesn't like
383
00:18:20,975 --> 00:18:22,758
the way that
it makes her feel.
384
00:18:22,835 --> 00:18:24,718
So she tried
magical bracelets
385
00:18:24,795 --> 00:18:26,220
and releasing her inner bitch
386
00:18:26,297 --> 00:18:28,222
and then distracting herself
with Miss Mystic Falls,
387
00:18:28,299 --> 00:18:30,483
but all of that is
just delaying the inevitable.
388
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,485
Letting her crash
is the only way
389
00:18:32,562 --> 00:18:34,654
anything will ever change.

Hey, Hope. What's going on?
Don't pretend like

you don't remember
our last conversation.
I just figured
409
00:19:47,061 --> 00:19:48,452
you'd want a fresh start.
410
00:19:48,529 --> 00:19:50,730
Oh. Guess even my subconscious

Uh, yeah,
actually, I did.
414

been protecting you

So what was I supposed to do
with this secret? Hmm?
417
00:20:04,603 --> 00:20:06,237
Just stop
protecting you?

00:20:06,247 --> 00:20:08,530
I know exactly what it
feels like to be an orphan.

because I care about you.
No.
421

You were doing it because
you didn't want me to leave.
422
00:20:15,239 --> 00:20:18,582
Because you fear
being abandoned, like
how your mom left
423
00:20:18,593 --> 00:20:20,501
and your dad left--
it's why you run.

My father saw himself in me.

I was clay pretending to be
something it wasn't.
431
00:20:39,021 --> 00:20:40,947
He despised me for it.
432
00:20:41,023 --> 00:20:44,900
He threw me away like all the
other failures who came before.
433
00:20:44,977 --> 00:20:47,027
I know what that's like.
434

Then you'll understand
why I betrayed him.
435
00:20:53,319 --> 00:20:55,953
Our father consumed
every creature he could.
436
00:20:55,964 --> 00:20:59,632
And when his supply ran out,
he grew weak...
437
00:20:59,709 --> 00:21:00,967
vulnerable.
438
00:21:01,043 --> 00:21:03,886
And that's when
the humans came back.
439
00:21:05,974 --> 00:21:08,299
The descendants
of his original worshippers,
440
00:21:08,309 --> 00:21:09,717
a secret society.
441
00:21:09,793 --> 00:21:11,885
I told them
442
00:21:11,962 --> 00:21:13,646
of his attempts
to create a lineage,
443
00:21:13,723 --> 00:21:17,474
how he was violating nature,
trying to birth a new species.
444
00:21:17,485 --> 00:21:20,227
I led them to him.
445
00:21:20,304 --> 00:21:22,646
And they did what humans do.
446
00:21:22,657 --> 00:21:26,442
They rebelled
against their god.
447
00:21:26,518 --> 00:21:29,153
They paid witches who used
black magic to trap him...
448
00:21:32,024 --> 00:21:33,657
...and dissolve him,
449
00:21:33,668 --> 00:21:36,085
returning him
to his natural state.
450
00:21:37,171 --> 00:21:40,164
The black pit.
451
00:21:40,174 --> 00:21:43,843
The endless darkness
where the monsters are.
452
00:21:43,919 --> 00:21:46,462
It's not just a place.
453
00:21:46,538 --> 00:21:49,465
It's what remains
of our father.
454
00:21:49,541 --> 00:21:52,018
The Eater of the Dark.
455
00:21:52,094 --> 00:21:54,395
His name is...
Malivore.
456
00:22:00,436 --> 00:22:02,936
You don't believe me.
457
00:22:03,013 --> 00:22:06,148
Would you believe you?
458
00:22:06,225 --> 00:22:08,150
Probably not.
459
00:22:08,227 --> 00:22:10,202
Then again,
460
00:22:10,279 --> 00:22:12,321
I've never stolen an artifact
without even knowing
461
00:22:12,398 --> 00:22:14,206
why I did it.
462
00:22:14,283 --> 00:22:16,042
The knife and the
urn were both part
463
00:22:16,118 --> 00:22:17,543
of the spell that
dissolved him.
464
00:22:17,620 --> 00:22:19,995
But since he was immortal...
Nothing's immortal.
465
00:22:20,072 --> 00:22:22,173
There's always a loophole.
Nature creates a balance.
466
00:22:23,700 --> 00:22:25,000
That's Intro to Magical History.
467
00:22:25,011 --> 00:22:26,886
I've been taking it
for, like, a week.
468
00:22:26,962 --> 00:22:29,296
Very good.
469
00:22:29,373 --> 00:22:32,007
But until that loophole
could be found,
470
00:22:32,084 --> 00:22:34,051
they bound him
with three locks.
471
00:22:34,062 --> 00:22:36,512
Created three decoys.
472
00:22:36,588 --> 00:22:39,348
It can only be unlocked
by Malivore's blood,
473
00:22:39,425 --> 00:22:41,609
so they hid them far away.
474
00:22:42,737 --> 00:22:44,128
I've been able
475
00:22:44,205 --> 00:22:46,405
to track down where
the last four artifacts are.
476
00:22:48,434 --> 00:22:51,077
Now I need you to tell me
which is the real lock
477
00:22:51,153 --> 00:22:53,037
so we can set him free.
478
00:22:59,161 --> 00:23:00,869
This could have
gotten out of hand.
479
00:23:00,946 --> 00:23:03,255
Yeah, but... it didn't.
480
00:23:03,332 --> 00:23:05,833
And Raf apologized.
481
00:23:05,909 --> 00:23:07,259
You're a good man, Ric.
482
00:23:07,336 --> 00:23:09,336
But you're human.
483
00:23:09,413 --> 00:23:11,505
How long until these
kids figure out
484
00:23:11,582 --> 00:23:14,216
that the control you have of
this school is an illusion?
485
00:23:14,293 --> 00:23:17,019
Before there's a fight
you cannot stop?
486
00:23:19,181 --> 00:23:22,316
I finally realized
what I can do to help.
487
00:23:24,854 --> 00:23:26,987
I'm taking a sabbatical.
488
00:23:28,116 --> 00:23:30,023
But...
489
00:23:30,100 --> 00:23:31,951
but how is that
supposed to help?
490
00:23:32,027 --> 00:23:34,403
I'm hoping it'll
be a wake-up call.
491
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,456
The mission of this
school has grown.
492
00:23:38,650 --> 00:23:40,960
And I don't want to be here
493
00:23:41,036 --> 00:23:44,880
when it gets bad enough for
you to finally admit that.
494
00:24:06,512 --> 00:24:08,896
What do you want?
495
00:24:08,972 --> 00:24:10,439
I came to get some stuff,
496
00:24:10,516 --> 00:24:11,991
but I guess
I'll come back later.
497
00:24:12,067 --> 00:24:13,358
No, it's fine.
498
00:24:13,435 --> 00:24:14,651
Take whatever you need.
499
00:24:14,662 --> 00:24:16,612
Don't worry about me.
500
00:24:16,688 --> 00:24:17,821
Are you kidding me?
501
00:24:17,832 --> 00:24:19,448
All I've ever done
502
00:24:19,525 --> 00:24:20,908
is worry about you.
503
00:24:20,984 --> 00:24:22,618
Oh, here we go. The whole
504
00:24:22,694 --> 00:24:25,162
"I'm tired of being
in Lizzie's shadow" speech?
505
00:24:25,173 --> 00:24:28,457
Well, guess what.
Codependency takes two people.
506
00:24:28,534 --> 00:24:30,876
Yes, I'm awful and needy,
507
00:24:30,953 --> 00:24:33,512
but deep down,
you're happy to hide
508
00:24:33,589 --> 00:24:36,348
and let me be the one
that they hate
509
00:24:36,425 --> 00:24:38,726
because you're too scared
to be yourself.
510
00:24:40,521 --> 00:24:43,189
You are as much a part
of this cycle as I am.
511
00:24:43,265 --> 00:24:45,524
You're upset. I'll come back
512
00:24:45,601 --> 00:24:46,984
for the part where you beg me
to forgive you.
513
00:24:55,778 --> 00:24:57,036
Descanto!
Reboundus!
514
00:25:15,372 --> 00:25:17,223
I'm sorry.
515
00:25:25,090 --> 00:25:26,306
You need to
get some help.
516
00:25:26,383 --> 00:25:28,016
Don't pretend
that you care about me.
517
00:25:28,093 --> 00:25:29,977
I don't.
518
00:25:30,053 --> 00:25:31,904
I care about the pack.
519
00:25:31,981 --> 00:25:34,523
They follow their alpha.
520
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,525
And having an alpha who
can't control himself
521
00:25:36,602 --> 00:25:38,527
means the pack gets hurt.
522
00:25:38,604 --> 00:25:40,237
Look,
523
00:25:40,248 --> 00:25:43,073
I was a dick as a leader.
524
00:25:43,084 --> 00:25:45,534
So take it from someone
who lost what you have.
525
00:25:45,611 --> 00:25:48,203
The pack is everything.
526
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,998
If you care about them,
527
00:25:51,074 --> 00:25:54,301
you won't let your pride
get in the way like I did.
528
00:26:01,936 --> 00:26:04,261
I need to talk
to you about Raf.
529
00:26:04,272 --> 00:26:05,554
I have to say something first.
530
00:26:05,631 --> 00:26:07,106
Freya just explained the Merge.
531
00:26:07,182 --> 00:26:09,558
Josie's pretty much
figured it out,
532
00:26:09,635 --> 00:26:11,610
and, uh, Lizzie is spiraling.
533
00:26:11,687 --> 00:26:13,028
So, either you
do it or I will,
534
00:26:13,105 --> 00:26:15,364
but it's time
to tell them the truth.
535
00:26:17,934 --> 00:26:19,285
If you're the one
who betrayed him,
536
00:26:19,361 --> 00:26:20,777
why are you trying
to set him free now?
537
00:26:20,788 --> 00:26:24,331
Because I chose the wrong side.
538
00:26:29,463 --> 00:26:32,214
The pit had the same properties
as Malivore.
539
00:26:34,302 --> 00:26:36,385
Throw a monster in, its memory
was erased from existence.
540
00:26:38,288 --> 00:26:40,756
Within a few years,
the secret society
541
00:26:40,832 --> 00:26:42,891
grew into a business.
542
00:26:43,978 --> 00:26:45,802
Triad Industries.
543
00:26:45,813 --> 00:26:47,354
Keeping the world safe
from all the things
544
00:26:47,431 --> 00:26:48,480
that go bump in the night.
545
00:26:49,609 --> 00:26:51,025
It's monster cleaning.
546
00:26:53,562 --> 00:26:55,988
Eventually,
the power corrupted them.
547
00:26:58,475 --> 00:27:00,909
Monsters became
whoever they didn't like.
548
00:27:04,165 --> 00:27:05,664
Whoever they wanted
to be forgotten.
549
00:27:12,364 --> 00:27:15,540
I thought revenge on my father
would feel sweeter,
550
00:27:15,551 --> 00:27:17,468
but it didn't.
551
00:27:20,848 --> 00:27:22,839
So I returned myself to him.
552
00:27:22,850 --> 00:27:26,518
I knew
I had to make things right.
553
00:27:26,595 --> 00:27:28,512
Inside Malivore,
554
00:27:28,522 --> 00:27:29,688
there was only darkness.
555
00:27:30,882 --> 00:27:33,433
I yelled, I screamed,
556
00:27:33,510 --> 00:27:35,352
but he would not answer me.
557
00:27:35,363 --> 00:27:39,523
He let me sit in silence,
punishing me until...
558
00:27:39,533 --> 00:27:41,200
decades later,
559
00:27:41,276 --> 00:27:43,860
when suddenly
he spit me out.
560
00:27:43,871 --> 00:27:46,613
I didn't know why
561
00:27:46,690 --> 00:27:49,324
till I found that
picture of you.
562
00:27:49,401 --> 00:27:51,159
And I saw a
video of a knife
563
00:27:51,236 --> 00:27:53,787
that could only be unlocked
by Malivore's blood.
564
00:27:53,864 --> 00:27:56,540
And I heard story
565
00:27:56,550 --> 00:27:59,051
of a woman who had emerged
from the pit pregnant.
566
00:28:00,554 --> 00:28:02,129
As more humans were thrown in,
567
00:28:02,205 --> 00:28:03,839
he absorbed enough
of their genetic material
568
00:28:03,915 --> 00:28:05,391
to be able to reproduce.
569
00:28:05,467 --> 00:28:07,008
When Triad betrayed
your mother,
570
00:28:07,085 --> 00:28:10,554
our father had mercy on her
and sent her back...
571
00:28:10,564 --> 00:28:12,856
carrying you.
572
00:28:14,568 --> 00:28:17,310
He sent me back to find you
573
00:28:17,387 --> 00:28:20,355
because only you are
blood of his blood.
574
00:28:20,432 --> 00:28:22,357
And only you
575
00:28:22,434 --> 00:28:24,243

710
00:34:45,316 --> 00:34:47,918
There's really only one thing
you have to decide.
711
00:34:49,779 --> 00:34:51,546
Will you help me?
712
00:34:53,158 --> 00:34:55,083
Help release Malivore
and destroy the world?
713
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,709
He's been alive
for centuries.
714
00:34:56,786 --> 00:34:58,378
Was the world destroyed?
715
00:34:58,454 --> 00:35:00,806
Or was it balanced
716
00:35:00,882 --> 00:35:04,551
and safer without all these
creatures running around?
717
00:35:04,627 --> 00:35:06,978
Ask yourself-- who's
the real bad guy here?
718
00:35:07,055 --> 00:35:09,648
Our father was designed
for a purpose.
719
00:35:11,968 --> 00:35:14,269
It's his programming.
He can't control that.
720
00:35:14,345 --> 00:35:15,770
But all the monsters
he swallowed
721
00:35:15,847 --> 00:35:17,447
are still alive
inside of him.
722
00:35:19,309 --> 00:35:21,701
Did your friends keep
any of them alive?
723
00:35:23,238 --> 00:35:24,612
Or did they just kill
every creature
724
00:35:24,689 --> 00:35:26,331
they couldn't control?
725
00:35:26,408 --> 00:35:28,667
Malivore can't hurt
726
00:35:28,743 --> 00:35:31,336
witches, werewolves,
or vampires, remember?
727
00:35:31,413 --> 00:35:33,338
Your friends
at the school--
728
00:35:33,415 --> 00:35:35,498
they aren't in any
danger from him.
729
00:35:35,509 --> 00:35:38,176
But they are in danger
from Triad.
730
00:35:40,371 --> 00:35:42,681
You know what goes on
in this building?
731
00:35:42,757 --> 00:35:45,016
What kind of secret
experiments they run
732
00:35:45,093 --> 00:35:47,510
in their mad
scientist labs?
733
00:35:47,521 --> 00:35:50,856
They're finding a way
to turn the pit into a weapon.
734
00:35:50,932 --> 00:35:53,099
They're chemically
altering it
735
00:35:53,176 --> 00:35:55,435
so it can be used
against the protected species.
736
00:35:55,511 --> 00:35:58,363
Ending supernaturals
once and for all.
737
00:36:00,275 --> 00:36:02,200
You want to save
your friends?
738
00:36:02,277 --> 00:36:04,928
You have to stop Triad.
739
00:36:08,733 --> 00:36:10,658
Landon,
740
00:36:10,735 --> 00:36:13,503
no matter what they
say at that school...
741
00:36:15,031 --> 00:36:16,882
...you're not one of them.
742
00:36:16,958 --> 00:36:20,460
And you know that,
too, don't you?
743
00:36:20,536 --> 00:36:23,763
I'm offering you
a family who actually wants you.
744
00:36:26,084 --> 00:36:28,101
We can raise our father.
745
00:36:30,972 --> 00:36:34,107
And we can destroy Triad.
746
00:36:37,571 --> 00:36:40,113
What's it gonna be?
747
00:36:49,899 --> 00:36:51,750
This one.
748
00:37:12,297 --> 00:37:14,314
It was the only
thing in his desk.
749
00:37:16,175 --> 00:37:18,268
He's one of them.
750
00:37:18,278 --> 00:37:21,446
Security found an old pipe that
they must've escaped through.
751
00:37:21,523 --> 00:37:23,940
There's no record of it
on any ground plans.
752
00:37:23,951 --> 00:37:26,943
They lost their
trail, but...
753
00:37:26,954 --> 00:37:29,028
they did find this.
754
00:37:29,105 --> 00:37:32,791
♪ We could start from the top
before we were hopeless... ♪
755
00:37:32,867 --> 00:37:34,909

it's been quite a while... ♪
758
00:37:39,490 --> 00:37:41,675
You know, in the beginning,
there was balance.
759
00:37:43,453 --> 00:37:45,637
You know, when Caroline and I
opened the school,
760
00:37:45,714 --> 00:37:47,213
it made sense.
761
00:37:47,290 --> 00:37:50,091
Then it was...
762
00:37:50,168 --> 00:37:52,593
it was just me, and...
763
00:37:52,670 --> 00:37:54,646
and I-I.. I thought
I was strong enough
764
00:37:54,723 --> 00:37:56,264
to manage it alone.
765
00:37:56,341 --> 00:37:58,474
But I just...
766
00:37:58,485 --> 00:38:00,810
made so many mistakes.
767
00:38:00,821 --> 00:38:04,155
I thought if I just kept moving,
I could outrun them, you know?
768
00:38:04,232 --> 00:38:07,442
But they caught up to me.
769
00:38:07,518 --> 00:38:10,611
I guess what
I'm trying to say... is,
770
00:38:10,688 --> 00:38:12,613
I need your help.
771
00:38:12,690 --> 00:38:15,667
You know, this school is
bigger than you and me.
772
00:38:15,744 --> 00:38:17,669
And these kids--
they need leaders
773
00:38:17,746 --> 00:38:19,412
who can admit
their mistakes.
774
00:38:19,489 --> 00:38:23,791
And so I am here
to say I'm sorry.
775
00:38:23,868 --> 00:38:25,260
I am sorry
I kissed Emma.
776
00:38:27,330 --> 00:38:31,174

to you sooner about it.

You know, for a long time,
I thought that I was only
780
00:38:38,383 --> 00:38:40,692
at the school because of
what happened to my family.
781
00:38:40,769 --> 00:38:42,477
So that we could keep
supernaturals
782
00:38:42,553 --> 00:38:44,520
from growing up
to be killers.
783

as much as anyone else.
790
00:38:57,068 --> 00:39:00,036

their best shot.

00:39:15,753 --> 00:39:17,720
Hello to you, too,
uh, and, no, you're not.
798
00:39:17,731 --> 00:39:20,390
Look, last time you did this
without me, it was a disaster.
799
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,350
Except I'm not gonna go alone
this time.
800
00:39:22,427 --> 00:39:24,477
I'm gonna draft the twins, MG,
801
00:39:24,554 --> 00:39:26,571
Kaleb. We're going
before Dr. Saltzman comes back.
802
00:39:26,648 --> 00:39:27,772
It'll be like
a Super Squad Assemble.
803
00:39:27,849 --> 00:39:29,774
I don't know.
Is that a thing?
804
00:39:29,851 --> 00:39:31,317
I don't know.
I'll ask MG.
805
00:39:31,394 --> 00:39:32,911
Yeah, I'll ask
him myself.
806
00:39:32,987 --> 00:39:35,497
Raf, Dr. Saltzman told me
807
00:39:35,573 --> 00:39:39,626
about the side effects. I'm
sorry, but I can't let you come.
808
00:39:40,995 --> 00:39:42,504
How do you feel now?
809
00:39:49,620 --> 00:39:51,304
Like my brain's
split down the middle.
810
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:57,051
I keep having these flashes like
I can't control myself, and...
811
00:39:57,128 --> 00:39:59,270
That's why you're not coming
on the mission.
812
00:40:03,944 --> 00:40:06,778
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
813
00:40:10,575 --> 00:40:12,900
You know why.
814
00:40:12,977 --> 00:40:15,445
Raf...
815
00:40:15,455 --> 00:40:18,906
I don't know
how to be around you, Hope.
816
00:40:18,983 --> 00:40:21,292
I don't want to
feel this way,
817
00:40:21,369 --> 00:40:23,244
so I push it down,
818
00:40:23,321 --> 00:40:25,788
and that just makes the
split in my brain worse,
819
00:40:25,799 --> 00:40:27,790
which makes it
harder to hide.
820
00:40:27,801 --> 00:40:29,876
And the only person
that I want to talk
821
00:40:29,952 --> 00:40:32,804
about it with is the
only person I can't.
822
00:40:35,976 --> 00:40:37,967
Raf...
823
00:40:37,978 --> 00:40:39,978
you're a good brother.
824
00:40:40,054 --> 00:40:43,556
But for once, you need
to put yourself first.
825
00:40:43,633 --> 00:40:46,767
Do what you need
to get better.
826
00:40:46,844 --> 00:40:49,362
If things get really bad...
827
00:40:54,828 --> 00:40:57,612
...use this.
828
00:40:57,688 --> 00:40:59,489
It's a long story, but, um,
829
00:40:59,499 --> 00:41:02,909
it was a gift
from a family friend.
830
00:41:02,985 --> 00:41:05,077
But it's essentially like
a reverse kyanite ring.
831
00:41:05,154 --> 00:41:07,455
When you use it,
you can turn yourself at will.
832
00:41:07,532 --> 00:41:10,675
In your wolf mind,
things are less complicated.
833
00:41:10,752 --> 00:41:12,627
You know that.
834
00:41:12,703 --> 00:41:14,962
It'll buy you time to heal.
835
00:41:15,039 --> 00:41:17,006
Only catch is, um,
836
00:41:17,017 --> 00:41:19,517
you can't
turn yourself back, so,
837
00:41:19,594 --> 00:41:22,011
if you do use it,
838
00:41:22,022 --> 00:41:23,596
all you have to do is
come find me
839
00:41:23,673 --> 00:41:25,482
when you're ready
to be yourself again.
840
00:41:28,010 --> 00:41:29,810
I am
841
00:41:29,887 --> 00:41:32,355
really glad I know you...
842
00:41:32,365 --> 00:41:34,440
Hope Mikaelson.
843
00:41:34,517 --> 00:41:36,609
Now,
844
00:41:36,686 --> 00:41:38,819
go.
845
00:41:38,896 --> 00:41:40,530
Go save our boy.
846
00:41:42,275 --> 00:41:44,542
And don't let anything
stop you.
847
00:41:50,366 --> 00:41:51,925
Move, move!
