"Previously on "Sanctuary"...." "You're going to reach out and grab my hand, okay?" "I said come here!" "Oh, God." "What part of "we got the shooter" don't you understand?" "I'm thinking there was no shooting." "Hey!" "Hey, kid!" "Hey, wait a second!" "Not the way I'd hoped we'd meet." "[Motorcycle rumbles]" "[Train zooms by overhead]" "Mrs. Lutrova, I realize that you've been through a lot tonight, but you and I both know that you just lied in there." "Why don't you want to hear me out?" "Because this is exactly the same kind of B.S." "that got you bounced from the agency." "Come on, Meg, you always thought I was a wackjob, too." "Whatever it is that finally helps you sleep at night," "I hope you find it." "How's your head?" "Wait." "You ran me over." "You got in the way." "Of what?" "My pursuit of the boy." "The police have the wrong man, but the boy is indeed real." "And he needs our help." "Who are you?" "Let's just say I'm someone who's chosen to embrace the full spectrum of our reality." "There are things in this city, in this world, that no one wants to admit are real." "DRUITT:" "In fact I am looking for something." "A sanctuary, and it takes in only the most unusual guests." "HELEN:" "You no doubt have questions about this place." "Just one -- how come there's no organ music?" "[Train approaches]" "[Loud flash]" "[Otherworldly voices]" "[Loud flash]" "[Coughing]" "[Laughs]" "Fair warning, Dr. Zimmerman." "You're about to leave the world you know behind." "Welcome to the Sanctuary." "HELEN:" "The patients on this level are kept in cells mainly for their own well-being." "For others, it's a refuge of last resort." "This isn't a zoo and it's certainly not a prison." "The most important thing is that my patients have a place where they can feel safe." "Are you offering me a job here?" "Where others see stubbornness and failure, I see great potential." "Dare to believe in the unbelievable." "WILL:" "Who the hell are you?" "Who the hell are you?" "HELEN:" "You said you had him." "ASHLEY:" "I did." "[Gasps]" "Don't!" "We need him alive." "[Screams]" "Hey, hey, hey, hey!" "Over here." "[Shoots dart]" "HELEN:" "Dr. Zimmerman, this is Ashley." "My daughter." "What?" "Did you have her when you were, like, 12?" "The details are unimportant." "Ashley is my flesh and blood and she plays a vital role in my work." "I'll determine his physiological treatment, but we have no hope of truly helping him until we gain his trust." "There's nothing in my training that even begins to apply to a patient like this." "HELEN:" "See the boy." "If you can do that, then you can help him." "If not, then so be it." "I'll simply admit that I was wrong about you." "I'll leave it to you." "["Sanctuary" theme plays]" "Release him." "Please." "Trust me." "It's okay." "It's okay." "How you doing?" "You want to sit down?" "Kind of harsh for a job interview, don't you think?" "Thank you for your opinion, Henry." "I'm just saying, it's a newbie all alone with the new arrival " "Whom he helped capture." "Yeah, sure, he might pull it off." "You know, even a blind squirrel can find a nut." "Or is it monkeys and bananas?" "I can never remember." "Do you have what I asked for?" "Yeah." "The analysis of the goop you took from the cops' frontal lobes?" "Check." "Not many places you're going to find radiation traces that pure." "Mostly former Soviet Republics." "But if you match up the mineral traces in the plutonium sample to known mining operations in each possible location...." "Chernobyl." "Only city in the world with more personal Geiger counters than clocks." "Many of the survivors of this disaster moved on and had children." "Yeah, if you can call them that." "Your sensitivity is breathtaking." "The kid sucks brains!" "Not that I'm being judgmental." "Is there anything else?" "No, not really." "A working girl was found murdered behind a warehouse down near circle square about four hours ago." "Murdered how?" "Just your typical old-school stabbing." "No one saw anything." "Cops are clueless, as usual." "Send me what you have." "Really?" "We care about this?" "I mean, it's very sad, but " "Send it to me." "Okay, fine." "All right, I'll transfer the CCTV footage from that part of town to the central network, which, by the way, is still fluxing like a bitch." "Did you get the request I sent for those upgrades?" "We'll talk about it." "Okay, fine." "By the way, if there's a cleanup on aisle 2," "I don't want to know about it." "I thought your mom grounded you." "She did." "I'm just going out to get some feminine products." "Yeah, feminine like a crate of Uzis?" "Dude, you want me to get us some toys or what?" "Hey, I never saw you." "Atta boy." "Whoa, hey!" "Time out a second!" "Time out!" "Time out." "Everyone just calm down." "You think that's supposed to scare me, huh?" "Well, let me tell you something, you see this guy here?" "He scares me a hell of a lot more than you do." "No offense." "WILL:" "All right, let's just calm down, all right?" "Will you give us some space here?" "It's okay." "It's okay." "[Squelching]" "Just relax." "Okay, how come you're not trying to eat my brain anymore?" "I think I'm getting the hang of things here." "The less I'm scared of you, the less you want to snack on my cerebellum?" "Okay." "I'm just going to put this down." "Do you have a name?" "Alexei." "My name's Will." "You want to tell me how all this started?" "I lived in Kiev with parents." "ALEXEI:" "They told me I was not safe." "That if people found out about me, I would be taken away." "Family adopt me, bring me here, but they not like me." "Not after...." "Wasn't the kind of reception you were hoping for, huh?" "They were afraid." "I tried to stop it, but only more fear comes." "So the more fear, the more it comes out?" "And you can't control it." "It's a defense mechanism." "With a mind of its own." "It is not my fault." "I not want to kill." "No, you just want to be safe." "Listen to me, Alexei." "Feeling safe is something we all need." "That is nothing to be ashamed of." "All right?" "You're no different than anybody else." "You don't fear me?" "No." "Magnificent." "[Keyboard clicks away]" "A brain-sucking anaconda living in his intestinal tract." "Ugh." "Sorry I missed it." "Can we just get down to business?" "Come on, now, baby girl, we're just talking shop." "Sylvio, please." "Right now you're giving yourself an ice cream headache trying to figure out how much that kid is worth on the open market." "Just my greedy baseline personality." "Well, you want to work with us, you play by our rules." "You know that." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Look...." "I'm down with the whole protect and study thing, okay?" "Peace, love, and incense." "[Thuds of impact]" "Do I have your attention?" "[Gunfire]" "Sylvio, are you okay?" "Been better." "Gun!" "Let's go." "[Groaning in pain]" "Stings like a son of a bitch." "Anyone we know?" "Can't tell yet." "I'll be fine." "Go." "You sure?" "Ash, I got to scream like a girl now." "I don't need witnesses." "Okay, understood." "[Breathing hard]" "[Screaming]" "WILL:" "Don't do it." "You've got your whole life ahead of you." "HELEN:" "If only you knew." "WILL:" "Aren't you a little cold?" "HELEN:" "Opinion seems to be divided." "Care to join me?" "WILL:" "Uh...." "I'm not usually so good with heights, but...." "What the heck?" "Wow." "That is quite a view." "I come here to reflect, particularly when I can't sleep." "I'm guessing that happens a lot." "You're finding all this too much, aren't you?" "I don't know." "I think I'm handling the whole world-turned-upside-down thing pretty well." "But you're having a hard time accepting it." "If you were me, wouldn't you?" "I was you, a long time ago." "All this is extraordinary." "It's beyond extraordinary." "It's just...." "It's not my world." "I'm having a little difficulty wrapping my head around it." "This wasn't an impulse on my part." "I've known this was your destiny since you first came to my attention." "Yeah, since you knocked me down in an alley." "Since you were eight years old." "Actually, when you told the world a monster killed your mother." "[Beast roars, boy screams]" "How'd you know about that?" "HELEN:" "Not that anyone believed you." "From then on, you were the odd one." "The strange child who saw monsters lurking in every shadow." "[Snarling]" "HELEN:" "The boy who cried wolf, until the fear and mockery became too much, and you recanted." "You couldn't possibly have seen what you did." "You must have imagined it." "But you didn't imagine it." "And that trauma spurred a lifelong commitment to the study of the mind." "You became obsessed with perception." "You published papers on how easily we mistake illusion for reality." "It was real." "What I saw was real." "The life you've built is the only way you could make sense of what happened to you, Will." "How can you expect me to help these creatures, when one of them...." "When one of them took everything from me?" "Only you can answer that." "You knew." "You knew how this would affect me." "It's your choice, Will." "In the end, it's a massive leap of faith." "Come out, you son of a bitch!" "DRUITT:" "You seem very angry." "[Firing shots]" "[Muttering] What the hell?" "DRUITT:" "Is it because of your friend?" "I don't like people getting spiked on my watch." "He hardly seems worthy of your concern." "[Growls in frustration]" "Where....?" "DRUITT:" "Perhaps I should just give myself up." "Funny, you don't strike me as a quitter." "[Growling]" "Ah!" "That's good." "That's a nasty toy for someone your age." "It's a present from my mom." "Then you'd better have it back." "[Shots ricochet]" "You're thinking, "Who is he?" "What is he?" "How will I bring him down?"" "I actually just focused on your old man breath." "That is some nasty bridgework, dude." "[Shot ricochets]" "Ill manners do not become you, my dear." "[Gun clicks uselessly]" "[Tsking]" "All right." "Enough of this." "Let's get it on." "[Cries out in pain]" "You have decent technique." "Completely lacking in discipline, but impressive enough." "Okay." "Who are you?" "Just someone new in town." "Beyond that, I wouldn't want to be the one to spoil the surprise." "[Panting with exhaustion]" "Now...." "It's time you learned to respect your elders!" "Yes, the shield is working." "If it's him, we're safe." "Actually, I'm not afraid of him harming me." "More of what he may do to others, what he may have already done." "If the truth were to come out, the consequences would be devastating." "Okay." "I grudgingly admit you've got some game." "I've been following your exploits for quite some time." "You're a very intrepid duo, you and your mother." "[Coughing]" "DRUITT:" "Protect the innocent." "Study the bizarre, the inexplicable." "Listen to rants from violent weirdos." "Hazardous work indeed." "SYLVIO:" "Hey, buddy." "[Thud of impact]" "Nobody spikes my van." "[Electricity crackles]" "Only the chosen left alive Immortals all, the holy five" "Shut up." "[Groans in pain]" "Thanks, buddy." "Now, he's got to be worth something." "HENRY:" "I'm just saying that if you took the van every now and then instead of your bike," "I wouldn't have to do retrievals in the middle of the night." "Well, Henry, the only vans I ride have lord Poseidon airbrushed on the side." "What?" "Vans are for losers." "I like my bike." "Nice." "Now, see, he looks harmless enough." "He took 10,000 volts plus a triple tranq." "He is going to have a serious migraine whenever he does wake up." "So, what do you think his thing is?" "I don't know." "Leave that to mom." "All I know is he was a serious handful." "Ask Sylvio." "[Scoffs]" "Sylvio's a baby." "Whined all the way to Dr. Lim's." "A few special herbs and spices, he'll be fine." "Whatever." "Process the ghoul, let mom know." "Me, I am hitting the showers." "Okay, cool." "Hey, where do you want him?" "Gen pop." "Or the shoe?" "I mean, he's going to be asleep for, like, two days." "The shoe." "Definitely maximum security for this guy." "[Moaning in the distance]" "Okay." "[Growling and moaning]" "Okay, well, enjoy your stay." "I plan to." "Ah!" "Aw, crap." "Seriously, dude, you're on, like, nine different security cameras right now." "There's no way you're getting out of here." "Oh, I have no intention of leaving." "Now...." "What section are we in?" "It seems so welcoming." "It's where we keep the bad things." "Hmm...." "The worst of the worst." "[Bangs on glass]" "[Monster roars]" "Mm, I like the sound of that." "That'll do." "[Beckons as he would a dog]" "Please." "Show me around." "Yeah." "[Chuckling wickedly]" "This is it?" "Yes." "But all security measures can be remotely reactivated, so, really, there's no point in " "Wow, okay, we're cool." "This facility is protected by an energy field, is it not?" "It's a modified EM bubble." "Protects outside interference from jamming devices." "Is that what she told you it was for?" "Clever girl." "What is it for?" "Me." "Shut it down." "Wait a minute, that doesn't make any sense" "Shut it down." "Okay." "Done." "Thank you." "You've been very helpful." "[Fires weapon]" "[Gasps in pain]" "Ashley." "I know, you told me to stay in." "Where were you tonight?" "What happened?" "Nothing major." "Sylvio and I ran into a bit of trouble." "Trouble?" "Some superfast psychopathic dude." "Nothing we couldn't handle." "How fast?" "Pretty hot moves for a tall guy." "He had a great accent, too." "Kind of like yours, only, uh more evil." "Stay here, and I mean here." "Relax, Henry put him in the shoe." "We're fine." "No, we're not!" "Mom!" "[Groaning]" "Henry!" "What happened?" "Mom, why are you freaking out?" "Grab what weapons you can." "We'll need them." "No!" "Not until you tell me why this ghoul is such a problem." "Because he'll kill us both." "He allowed himself to be captured by you, I'm certain of it." "We may only have moments before " "[Loud flash]" "Bloody hell." "Hello, Helen." "John...." "It's wonderful to see you again." "You know this ghoul?" "DRUITT:" "Oh...." "Your mother and I go way back." "Hmm?" "[Loud flash]" "[Screams]" "John, don't!" "This is about you and me, not her." "For the moment." "You have no idea what it's been like." "Alone." "Wandering this godforsaken world." "Wanting only peace." "A fragment of what we had." "What I lost." "You have nothing to gain by harming her or me." "Mom, shoot him!" "Shall we drop the pretense?" "You know exactly why I've come and what I want." "It's all within reach, everything I've ever wanted, and you're going to give it to me or she will die." "Mom!" "[Loud flash]" "[Types away on keyboard]" "Oh, bloody hell." "[Loud flash]" "Please don't do this." "I don't know much about your mother's pets, but I would imagine staying very still would be advisable." "[Loud flash]" "[Monsters roar and screech]" "[Deep growling]" "DRUITT:" "Ah, I knew him well." "Where is she?" "Where is she?" "I'd tell you she was safe, but I'd be lying." "No, your scruffy little helper mentioned something about where the worst of the worst are kept." "You bastard." "Oh, no doubt she helped capture whatever is in there." "They can reminisce." "Threatening her " "Is my only option, Helen." "I can hardly threaten you." "Using one of your precious creatures as the blunt instrument." "Some of my best work, I think." "I'll get there first." "And just put her someplace more dangerous." "I don't want her to die, Helen, but that is exactly what will happen if you test my resolve." "There's only one reason you would have taken this risk, to risk her." "Because you have to." "You're dying, aren't you?" "We're all dying." "It simply comes down to survival, and I intend to do whatever is necessary to ensure mine." "Even if it means killing her?" "DRUITT:" "Her life is in your hands, Helen." "I don't think you want to lose her over something as easily accessible as your own blood." "You saved my life once before." "You can do it again." "I can help you, John, and not by prolonging this nightmare." "I can find a cure." "She clearly doesn't know." "How could I possibly tell her?" "She must have asked how she came by her killer instincts." "She thinks her father's dead." "I wonder how she'd feel to learn the truth?" "Your mind is poisoned, John, through no fault of your own." "Helen Magnus, friend to nature's abominations, and enemy of common sense!" "Your blood, Helen!" "Oh, time is growing short." "Okay, so I'm guessing that's not normal." "[Snarling]" "[Screeching]" "[Screams]" "Find Magnus!" "[Beast snarling and roaring]" "Ashley!" "Ashley!" "We're going to get you out of here, okay?" "[Growling]" "[Snarling]" "How can I be sure?" "It's mine." "Centrifuged, pure." "[Exhales]" "Thank you, Helen." "You won't regret it." "I'm sorry I can't say the same for you." "[Crackles]" "Forgive me, John." "The five." "The others will come." "[Creatures growl and snarl]" "Ha!" "[Screeching in pain]" "Come on." "We've got to go." "We've got to go." "Come on." "Stay in the light!" "I've got her, I've got her." "[Growls]" "[Coughing and gasping]" "Dude, are you nuts?" "It's a distinct possibility." "Hey, Will." "Hey." "Wow." "How're you feeling?" "Fine, it just broke the skin." "So I wanted to say that, uh...." "I might've underestimated you." "A little." "Saving my life was good." "Yeah, well, anytime." "So, we'll see you around?" "Honestly, I don't know." "You know, my mom can be pretty dark and weird, but she's good at this." "And if those are for the big guy, he's allergic." "Thanks." "Two days ago, you were the stuff of nightmares." "After my mom was killed, I, uh I was terrified of things that I didn't understand, things that I I couldn't understand." "But now...." "Now...." "Maybe there is no such thing as a monster." "Forget it." "Just get better, all right?" "Will...." "Did you just....?" "It isn't true." "What?" "What's not true?" "There is such a thing as monsters." "[Soft knocking]" "Leaving, Dr. Zimmerman?" "How unfortunate." "What you've built here, and the research that you've done.... 30 minutes in that library and I got to the bottom of questions" "I didn't even have the sense to ask." "Some of the most confounding cases" "I'd ever worked on were suddenly..." "[Snaps fingers] ...crystal clear." "And yet you're ready to walk away." "Just...." "Just hear me out, please." "You invited me here because you said I was a truth-seeker, just like you." "But I know you've withheld things from me." "What things, Will?" "[Screaming]" "It's all right." "You're safe now." "You were there, weren't you?" "She was an extraordinarily brave woman." "She died protecting you from that creature." "You could have stopped it!" "Done something!" "We tried, Will." "I swear to you, we tried." "It all happened so quickly." "We barely had time to rescue you." "[Sighs heavily]" "You couldn't have been more than, what, 14?" "15 at the time?" "Teenage monster hunter?" "I don't think so." "And then there's your recent guest, Druitt." "Turns out that a John Druitt was one of Scotland Yard's prime suspects in the Ripper case in the 1880s." "Yes." "He was my first patient." "Which means either one or both of you can travel through time." "Either that or you're more than " "I am 157 years old." "How is any of this possible?" "When you work at the frontiers of science for as long as I have the rewards -- and curses -- are unexpected." "My God." "You treated one of the most notorious serial killers of all time." "He wasn't always that." "He was dying." "I gave him my blood to prolong his life, but it all went wrong." "[Horse neighs]" "[Bell tolls]" "Lonely tonight, gentlemen?" "[Loud flash]" "Still at it, Molly?" "[Gasps in fright]" "Oh!" "Mr. Druitt." "You frightened me." "No rest for the gifted, you know that." "Indeed I do." "You shouldn't be in the habit of jumping out at the ladies these days." "What with all the troubles." "What was I thinking?" "Forgive me." "HELEN:" "John!" "This ends here." "Helen...." "[Horse neighs in the distance]" "What a lovely surprise." "Molly, I would like you to meet my fiancée, or should I say former fiancée, Helen Magnus." "Dr. Helen Magnus." "Doctor?" "I'm pleased to meet you, ma'am." "Well, I'll be on my way." "Stay." "I insist." "John, let me help you before you make things worse." "And how is that possible?" "I've already murdered, what, seven whores?" "How could one more make the slightest difference?" "Murdered?" "[Molly cries out in terror]" "What more have I to lose?" "Your power's driving you mad, John." "I can help." "My power is all I have left." "[Cocks pistol]" "Let her go." "[Sobbing]" "As the lady wishes." "[Knife slices, pistol fires]" "I spent all the intervening years trying to undo that mistake." "He was more than your patient, wasn't he?" "Ashley...." "I kept the embryo frozen for over a century, until I could bear the loneliness no longer." "I brought it to term, believing John was gone for good." "I underestimated his determination." "Okay." "Here's the deal." "If we're going to work together, the first rule -- the only rule -- is that you're straight up with me." "I've just trusted you with my deepest, darkest secret." "I know, it's just...." "I just know that I've spent a lifetime living a lie, and I can't do it anymore." "I understand." "No, I'm serious." "You open this place up to me, every monster, every room, everything that crawls, flies, teleports." "If I'm going to be of any use to you," "I've got a lot of catching up to do." "To say the least." "You know, I was hoping that at least you would be normal." "Sorry to disappoint." "Is there anything else?" "Is there a health plan?" "No." "But I can promise you the adventure of many, many lifetimes." "Shall we begin?" "[End credits music plays]"
