"It's been awhile since we had to clean up from some of those." "Hey, you must be the new guy." "Henry Foss." "Weapons, tech support, phone guy." "You name it, I either build it or fix it, hopefully not in that order." "Will Zimmerman." "Yeah, I heard about you..." "well not much actually." "But I'm sure you're up for the task." "More than the last guy anyway." "Look at this." "You see that, huh?" "I'm telling you, women plus technology equals mess." "Don't take this the wrong way, but... are you... you know?" "I'm just kidding." "I'm a normal boring Homo Sapien, just like yourself." "My great great grandfather was Magnus' original weapon-smith back in London." "It's all about nepotism, dude." "Is my lab operational?" "Not yet." "Then I suggest you stop talking and go and fix it." "FYI, around here, humans are second class citizens." "Go." "Especially men." "Right." "Your turn." "Based on the supernatural forces at work here," "I'd say you're lucky to be alive." "Hey, I got nailed by three witches." "A great story at my next medical conference." "Is your bravado meant to be charming?" "Isn't it?" "I find no permanent damage as a result of your injuries." "As I said, lucky." "So what did they do?" "From what I can gather, our guests unleashed powerful psychic energy on a massive scale." "Had it been left unchecked, the toll would have been quite substantial." "Psychic energy, as in they can read minds." "I guess that's how Danu was able to quickly learn our vernacular of English." "And instantly pass that knowledge on to her siblings." "I saw them floating in the air," "I watched them destroy the lab, with their minds, I guess." "But as for them being the actual Morrigan, there is no way." "The markings on the ring." "Memories of ancient battles." "I'm entertaining the possibility." "Or they could just be three scared, lost, delusional women, albeit with some freaky powers." "Not famous witches from 1200 years ago." "But that's not what you want to hear, is it?" "I beg your pardon?" "We looked in that crypt for..." " Elixirs." " Right." "Ones that could help you with your "condition"." "And instead we found three people in coffins." "Three people who are now claiming to be even older than you by a long shot." "I see." "So I'm imposing my personal agenda on the situation." "Hoping these three women can somehow help me find a cure for my longevity." "It's understandable." "If they were in fact 1200 years old," " they may hold the key to helping..." " You can't possibly understand." "Life without end is not a gift." "It's a curse." "It means loneliness." "Isolation." "It means being less human." "Now if you can somehow prove that these 3 women are nothing more than misunderstood abnormals, believe me I will be the first to applaud your efforts." "But if they are indeed who I suspect, then you, more than anyone, are in mortal danger." "Because they hate men." "The Morrigan were created for one purpose only." "That's why you and my manservant were so affected." "Then we'd better hope I'm right." "You scared the crap outta me." "Because of my unbearable hotness?" "God, you're a mess." "Here, let me help you." "How's the shopping list going?" "Having the time of my life." "Did I miss anything?" "Yeah, witches." "Cool." "You might want your mom to take a look at that." "Later." "Hey, listen..." "I know you're all about keeping up your mojo and not sharing things." "But I promise you, you're gonna be in a lot less pain, both physically and emotionally, if you just talk about what you're going through, that's all I'm saying." "You ever look at a ghoul, a really nasty one, right in the eye before you send it packing?" "You see one of two things." "You see fear." "It knows it's dead meat." "And that's kinda sad." "But others." "The really bad ones... they never stop wanting to take you down, right up until the moment you pull the trigger." "And those kills, they're the sweetest." "Sometimes, when I nail something that mean and terrible, when I watch it die..." "I feel..." "Well... it's hard to explain." "But trust me." "It's a thousand times more cathartic than lying on a couch, crying about how your life sucks." "Doctor." "I can only say how sorry I am that you were the ones who found us." "We should never have been disturbed." "Why are you sorry?" "You were kind to us." "Never passed judgment on our actions." "You mean your memories of killing those men?" "I hate to tell you this, but memory is probably the most untrustworthy thing our minds have to offer." "You shouldn't do this." "Do you want me to believe that you're evil witches from the middle ages?" "Danu, before your so-called memories returned, you and your sisters were kind, reasonable people." "You said please and thank you." "So forgive me if I fail to believe that..." "I remember who I am... who we are." "What we've done." "You just refuse to accept it." "Battles were lost and won because of our presence." "We were the bringers of pestilence that destroyed men's souls..." "My power when I act alone is but a tiny shard compared to when we three are as one." "A thousand men marched on Badon Hill that morning." "All were dead before nightfall." "All without the touch of neither sword nor spear." "And now that we are free, more will die." "That is our purpose." "When shall we meet again?" "In thunder lightning or in rain?" "When the hurlyburly's done." "When the battle is lost and won." "I told you." "I remember who I am now." "So that's what the couch is for." "Okay, you win." "They're witches from the middle ages." "What do we do with them?" "Keep them secure." "Study them." "Understand their power and help them if we can." "I realize I don't have a lot of experience with witches, but I'm not sure I have the time or the talent to turn them into productive members of society." "Yes, well, our work does have its limitations." "You know, what bugs me is that, before I jogged their memories, they seemed... normal." "Well-adjusted." "Not homicidal life-sucking sorceresses who killed a thousand men at some place called" "Badon Hill." "Badon Hill." "Yeah, what about it?" "Wexford mentioned it as the site of the final battle that handed Arthur control of Britain." " So the 1000 men..." " Would have been Saxons, not Britons." "Oh, wait wait." "You told me the Morrigan were created to destroy Arthur, not help him defeat his enemies." "What if they had no choice?" "Of course." "It makes sense." "She would never have done that." "Who wouldn't have done what?" "What do we know about Morgan LeFay?" "That she was an evil sorceress who was Arthur's enemy." "Now, ask yourself:" "who would have written that?" " Men?" " Men." "Exactly." "This is revisionist history." "What if the Morrigan were not created to wreak havoc but rather to restore balance to the world." "It follows what other revisionist scholars have already uncovered through ancient history." "Patriarchal monarchies that were actually run by women, for example." "Before you get all Da Vinci Code on me, how do you know that Morgan LeFay wasn't just simply evil." "I don't." "But I do know that throughout history, feminine energy never seeks to try to dominate, but tries to restore harmony to the world." "To make it whole." "Now, Arthur wanted to control all of Britain." "What if Morgan was simply trying to stop his rush to power?" "Here it is." "These are Arthur's battles in his campaign to rule Britain." "Looks like he lost more than half of them." "How does a guy become King of England with this kind of win/loss record?" "Henry..." "That's better." "Please..." "Look, I'm just an employee." "Prior to Badon Hill, Arthur's armies suffered many defeats, but with very few casualties." "Most of his men simply lost their will to fight and abandoned their posts." "But then something changed." "At Badon Hill." "A massive defeat was visited upon the Saxons by Arthur's forces." "Now, legend says that most died, but without any marks on them." "The witches changed sides?" "My guess is that Merlin somehow brainwashed these women." "He recognized them as Morgan's greatest weapon and tried to control them." "Okay, so Morgan LeFay creates witches to do good." "Then Merlin captures them and uses them to hand Britain to Arthur." "And then locks them away... keeping them alive in case they're needed in the future." "And the ghouls..." "An incorruptible army created by Merlin to ensure they would never be free again." "No offense to Merlin, but he didn't do a very good job." "I mean if we could..." "Move!" "I should have predicted this." "Merlin's army is reclaiming their prize." "Yeah, it would have been nice to have seen that coming."
