"(Goliath) One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled." "It was a time of darkness." "It was a world of fear." "It was the age of gargoyles." "Stone by day, warriors by night, we were betrayed by the humans we had sworn to protect, frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years." "Now, here in Manhattan... the spell is broken, and we live again!" "We are defenders of the night." "We are gargoyles." "Previously on "Gargoyles":" "Oh!" "(gasps)" "You are the betrayer?" "I told you to take the other gargoyles with you." " He's the one who shattered them!" " You lying scum!" "My personal goal is to get back to New York." "Elisa, I thought you understood." "Avalon does not take you where you want to go." "Avalon sends you where you need to be." "I've never seen a storm like this." "It was always summer in Avalon." " Where are we?" " It's home." "My home." "(groans)" "Hold on!" "Now that was an E-ticket ride." "(whimpers/growls)" "Perhaps we should wait out the storm in here." "Then we can return to Avalon and try again to find your "Manhattan" island." "When the tide comes in, this cavern will be underwater." "We must move to higher ground." "It looks like we'll be underwater either way." "Look there!" "Castle Wyvern stood atop this cliff." "Come, you must see the site of our ancestral home." "Goliath, what did you see?" "Nothing." "Just shadows." "So this is where our clan lived." " What was over there?" " The rookery." "I was hatched here, with my brothers and sisters." "Angela, you and the rookery children were but eggs when Princess Katharine took you from this place." "It was here that I knew your Guardian, Tom, when he was but a lad." "It must have been beautiful." "(Demona) Goliath... (howls)" "Come to me..." "Goliath, what's wrong?" "Goliath, we can't stay here." "Didn't you tell me once there are caves around here?" "Yes, of course." "This way." "Not exactly homey." "The Archmage made what we thought was his final stand in the labyrinth beneath this cave." "The Vikings camped here the night they attacked our home and shattered my clan." "On yon cliff I had to choose between life and revenge." "I chose to save Princess Katharine." "Thus Hakon and the Captain of the Guard fell to their deaths, but not at my hands." "You chose correctly, Goliath." "Without the princess to save us, my rookery kin and I would never have been hatched." "Still, I wanted revenge." "Goliath, are you all right?" "(Captain) It was not supposed to be this way." "(Hakon) He's the one you want!" "He shattered them!" "(voice echoes)" " (Katharine cries out)" " Princess!" "(Bronx growls)" "(Angela and Elisa gasp)" "Man, this place is creepier than the morgue at midnight." "Bronx seems to sense something." "What are those?" "Strange hieroglyphics." "What is this place?" "Long ago, it was the secret lair of the Archmage." "What do the carvings mean?" "(Goliath, echoing) You are the betrayer?" " (cries out) - (growls)" " Goliath, what's wrong?" " What... what do you see?" "I see the Archmage attacking a gargoyle." "Why?" "What do you see?" "I saw... old fears." "That's all." " He's not telling the truth." " This place is full of bad memories." "Old wounds bleed as bright as new ones sometimes." "He'll be all right..." "I hope." "Goliath, we don't have to stay here." "The storm's dying." "We can go somewhere else." "Perhaps you're right." "Too much of the past is still alive here." " (gasps) - (laughter)" "(roars)" " Goliath, stop!" " You're hurting us!" "(roars)" "(growls)" "(coughing/spluttering)" "(Bronx growls)" "Goliath." "(cackles)" "(gasps)" " Goliath." " Can you hear me?" "Goliath, what's happening?" "Stay away." "You are the betrayer?" "You're in danger from me." "I don't know what's real anymore." "Goliath, stop!" "Please, Goliath, wait for us!" "Bronx, find Goliath!" "(Demona) Goliath, join me in the dark." "No!" "Leave me alone!" "Goliath, don't abandon us." " Goliath..." " Goliath!" "Stay back." "I might hurt you." "You would hurt your friends?" "Your clan?" "I can't trust what I see!" "Watch out!" "You might fall." " If he falls, can you follow?" " This fissure may be too narrow to glide in." "He could be killed if he falls." "Swell." "No!" "Stay back!" "Murderer!" "(barks)" " Goliath!" " Watch out!" "Argh!" " Take our hands." " Goliath, hold on to us." "Hold on!" "(whimpers)" " Murderer!" " Killer!" " Betrayer!" " Aaaagh!" " Goliath!" " No!" "Aaaagh!" " What can we do?" " Climb down after him." "(panting)" "(Hakon) Now we have him." "The ancient magic is strongest here." " (Captain) But what if he suspects?" " What if he does?" "(laughs)" "(Hakon) If there's any fight left in him, this will take care of it." "(roars)" " (screeches) - (roars)" "No!" "It's impossible!" "(screeching/roaring)" "(all) Murderer!" "You destroyed our clan!" "Now you will pay!" "Death to Goliath!" "You're wrong!" "I tried to save you!" "You betrayed us!" "Aaagh!" "Now we will have our revenge." "(snarls)" "(Captain) Enough!" "Make an end to it." "(Hakon) Don't be a fool!" "I've waited a thousand years for this." "(Captain) If he becomes too weak, he won't serve our purpose." "(Hakon) Very well." "Now for the final touch." "(groans)" "Goliath." "After all these centuries, we meet again." "No." "Please, no!" "I bring you a gift, Goliath." "The same gift you granted me - oblivion." "This can't be." "You were not part of the slaughter." "She fled before the attack, escaped with her life." "She's not real." "None of you are real!" "(roars)" "(Hakon) You finally figured it out, eh?" "That voice... (gasps)" "It doesn't matter." "You'll never leave this cavern alive." "Or dead, for that matter." "But... the two of you fell to your doom the night of the raid." "Aye, and for ten times a hundred years, our spirits have languished in this stinking hole." "Perhaps it was the magic in this place, or maybe just the strength of our hatred that kept us here." "As much as we hated each other, we hated you a thousand times more." "You sent us to our deaths, Goliath, and now you'll help us live again." "Aaargh!" "The magic will drain your life force and replenish ours." "Your deaths were not my doing." "Don't you remember?" "My clan was betrayed by you!" "I never wanted that!" "It's working." "I can feel it." "After all these centuries, I can feel again!" "I've dreamed of doing this for a millennium." "(cackles)" "What's that?" "(growls)" "(laughs) It is almost complete." "We'll be free, and you'll haunt this pit till the end of time." "(roars)" "(Hakon cackles)" "What good... is life... without honor?" "No, I can't let this happen again." "(roars)" "What are you doing?" "You've broken the lines of power, you fool!" " (Elisa) Goliath!" " You're alive!" "(joyful howls)" "We've hated Goliath for a thousand years!" "Nay!" "I've hated myself for betraying him." "And now I've been given a chance to atone!" "Goliath, what is this?" "Get back!" " There were two men in there." " They couldn't have survived that." "Who were they, Goliath?" "One enemy... and one friend." "Thank you, Goliath." "You have helped me break the shackles of hate and guilt that held me here." "Farewell, old friend." "I have a feeling this is gonna be a long story." "Yes... centuries long." "Let us leave this place." "I thought you were losing your mind, Goliath, but now that I've heard this story..." " What do you think happened to Hakon?" " He has made his fate, Angela, whatever it might be." "Don't leave me here alone!" "Not without anyone to hate!" "(scream of fury)"
