"Is it the long,silky hair?" "The lips like wine?" "The legs..." "that seem to go on forever?" "Well,those all work for me." "The truth is: attraction- chemical,physical or spiritual- that's the easy part." "The trouble begins when the fantasy wears off... [bell chimes] Coming!" "...and the reality sets in." "Are you the wizard?" "I'm looking for a man." "I hope you can help me." "Yeah." "So,Miss Slovak..." "Nikki" "Nikki" "Have you been to the police?" "No,Aunt Frieda won't let me." "She's very old world;" "she doesn't trust the police." "She believes in psychics, the supernatural, you name it." "Hm,that's why she sent you to me,huh?" "Okay,so this guy..." "Donald Primko, at least that's what he called himself." "How much did he take?" "$22,000." "no pictures and his address was a vacant lot" "Okay this all seems.. strange.." "strange.." "but in cases like these,missing persons, it helps if I can get something the person used or owned;" "just something with a little bit of him on it." "Yeah,Aunt Frieda told me about this." "she knows how works e and im were lovers." "Uh..." "Y..." "Last night she made him ?" "and than this morning he disapeared with the money" "So what I do?" "I'll do my best." "Okay,okay." "Nice." "Was she built?" "Stop it!" "It's was just a simple question." "Just to be able to touch a woman again..." "Like you've got a shot." "And you do?" "Have you taken a look at yourself lately?" "You're not exactly the picture of elegance." "Elegance is over-rated Bob." "All I am saying is if you want to marry well, clean yourself up a little bit and then land a woman with money." "Money." "What happened to love?" "[scoff] A fallacy." "A biochemical reaction that usually results in hiring detectives to settle scores." "Just ask Aunt Frieda." "Now come on Harry, you know there's no such thing as love." "Look Bob, I've got to focus." "All right,so you bang the wench,find the loot, come back here and tell me all about it." "Bob!" "No better yet,you bang wench here and let me watch." "Bob will you get in your skull." "I said get in your skull Bob and that is a command!" "Gladly." "HARRY:" "Scrying for beginners." "You get a piece of someone, you boil it up,add crystal." "Then you track them down." "Pretty basic stuff, so finding Primko should have been easy money." "Should have been." "But my visions of easy money went up in smoke the second I caught the tell-tale whiff of death,damnation, and Brimstone." "Oh hell." "the dresden files s01e04" "When a supernaturl gets out of hand, that falls under the jurisdiction which is the governing body for people like me." "In Chicago the Council's chief enforcer is a guy named Morgan;" "a real people person." "You had nothing to do with this?" "No,no,no." "How many times do I have to repeat myself?" "Until I believe you." "Morgan,we got fire, we got brimstone, we got a scorched corpse, we got a hole in the wall, the hellion did this ... it's pretty obvious isn't it?" "Don't you think it's a bit too obvious." "But what I do know is this the guy is dead the money gone" "I don't do demonic!" "What's with his palm?" "Some kind of pattern burned into it." "A brand." "Looks almost like a flower" "I have no idea." "Why is it the times you step in it, it always ends up on me?" "Oh great,you know, I'm done." "I gotta tell my client to forget her money and find the hellion who did this,okay?" "Happy hunting." "Dresden?" "Murphy." "What are you doing here?" "Ah,well, I'm on a case." "I followed a lead and next thing you know" "I'm tripping over Mr. Krispie." "You,with me." "Yeah." "Can I just say this has nothing to do with me?" "Can I just say,bull?" "Yeah." "Well I gotta go." "Was that your client?" "No." "How would your client feel about Mr. Krispie?" "Couldn't say." "Who hired you Harry?" "You see I don't..." "Give me a name or go to jail for obstruction." "Nikki Slovak." "Not Nikki Slovak." "What do you mean?" "What?" "I mean Caryn Harris." "According to the traffic camera down the street from your office, was at your front door at 9:17 this morning." "Did you run the plates and get an address?" "You're not going." "Murphy,if she lied about her name, then she probably lied about everything else,and if..." "I'd like to find out why." "No." "Well..." "Murphy!" "HARRY:" "Here's the tricky part about working with the police." "The High Council insists that if you don't already know about the supernatural, you don't get to know." "Which makes my relationship with Murphy a little testy at times." "Could I talk to her alone for a moment?" "Why,so you can warn her?" "About what?" "You tell me; you're the one doing all the twitching." "Miss Harris," "Chicago Police, open the door please." "I don't twitch." "You twitch." "Miss Harris?" "Stay here." "Don't come in." "Yes officer." "Miss Harris?" "Chicago police." "Miss Harris?" "Miss Harris?" "anything?" "Murphy I think we need to get out of here." "Harry!" "Harry!" "Where is the chain?" "what are you talking about?" "[crash] nikki caryn,stop stop that it easy" "We have to get out of here" "No No one can." "He's gonna kill me." "Our barbecue vivtim Primko" "?" "No skin left on his fingers." "Guy's officially a John Doe." "You did him right?" "Some little ritual that went a little haywire;" "you and the girl in on it together." "Something kinky?" "Detective Kirmani," "Chicago can rest easy knowing you're on the case." "Anything from the lab?" "No explosive residue, no accelerant." "Guy died of critical burn trauma from at least a 900 degree blast wave." "A blast wave?" "Coroner said he saw something like it on the US air base." "A guy stepped behind a jet engine right when it fired it up." "They had to scrape him off the tarmac." "You're telling me the murder weapon is a jet?" "Just saying." "I know,I know, stay on it." "Oh I'm sorry." "Sorry,sorry." "Hey,so... anything from Caryn?" "Nothing." "Not a word about the burn guy or the guy in her apartment." "Nothing about aunt Frieda, who doesn't exist, by the way,and nothing at all about you." "Well,she's scared." "Do you have any idea of what?" "No." "This is some of your spooky stuff isn't it?" "No such thing." "Can I talk to her for a minute... make it 10 minutes?" "I'll give you whatever I can get,I promise." "It wasn't supposed to be like this." "What wasn't Caryn?" "Have you told them about that thing?" "Told who, about what?" "Damn it!" "The High Council,or whatever they're called." "You told them what killed Primko,right?" "They're after that thing right?" "Who's been talking to you about stuff like that?" "I can't tell you." "Look,I get why you're not telling the police, but I work for you." "You hired me for a reason." "Now I know you're in serious trouble." "That man in your apartment?" "That wasn't a man, that was a monster!" "Exactly why you need to be straight with me." "Not to mention,you're also the prime suspect in a murder investigation." "I didn't kill Primko!" "But you know who did,right?" "Just tell me what's going on it's just gotten so out of control" "This has something to do with the chain,right?" "what chain?" "You tell me" "this was a mistake" "Caryn I swear you can trust me" "You're working for him Aren't you?" "Trying to find it for him." "You'll work for anybody, even the devil himself." "Did you get a confession?" "We had some technical issues" "She fired me." "Hm,the touch of the master." "What's gonna happen to her now?" "Booked on suspicion of murder, transported to division 3." "What does that mean?" "Jail." "Will she be well guarded?" "Why,thinking of breaking her out?" "Oh no,I want to make sure the guy from the apartment" "She'll be fine she'll be better when she decide to tell us something" "What's this?" "Finger prints from Caryn's place." "See him before?" "Matthew Jacobs" "His prints were erywhere." "Nice set on the headboard where he apparently likes to get a good grip." "Maybe." "Mostly according to his arrest record he's a thief." "None known address" "No face and we couldn't lift any prints" "Do you think Jacobs is our corpse?" "You know something?" "I'm fired" "I should just get out of here" "HARRY:" "Okay,getting fired, it's not the worst thing in the world." "especially when you've been paid in advance." "and I wanted to know why." "So I went to the one person who couldn't lie to me even if he wanted to." "Hello Mr. Krispie." "Morgan was right, that is strange." "Okay,let's get a good look at you." "Show me through yourself." "Show me yoru true self." "You're not Matthew Jacobs." "You're not even human" "Dresden!" "Morgan,why do you always do that?" "Okay,you know what, it's okay." "I'm glad you're here." "Look,I think I ran into the hellion that did this." "Where?" "At my client's apartment." "She says that he wants to kill her." "Plot thickens." "Take a look at this." "Primko's a hellion, killed by a hellion." "And you're not surprised?" "You're aware of Sirota?" "corrupter of souls?" "That was Sirota in my client's apartment?" "Apparently Primko was one of Sirota's... recruits." "Okay,so,uh... and then killed them" "You talked to..." "Ss--sirota?" "Really?" "Does High Council know about this?" "And?" "Morgan, This Sirota he's not a good guy" "spreads evils, seduces human beings" "Now you and the High Counncil, you may be willing to let that happen," "Not when my client's life is in stake." "Now you're gonna take me to him." "[loud music throughout]" "Hello again Morgan" "Harry Dresden." "Sorry if things got a little rough at the apartment." "Let me make up to you." "I can give you a virgin" "No thanks I'm fine." "Trust me Harry" "If I wanted her soul I'd have taken it by now" "Is that what Primko died over?" "My client didn't kill anyone" "You got it?" "Matthew Jacobs." "Matthews Jacobs,that thieving boy of no account." "No,I showed him a much more promising path." "I transformed and molded him into hell spawn." "You know what I got in return?" "Betrayal." "Betrayal?" "I know what you're thinking." "how does that make him bad?" "As long as he beholded to me his ability to do harm has limited." "He was chained." "Chained." "The chain of sin." "Matthew's leash." "All my followers have their chains, but every once in a while one of them,you know, gets something in his head, he'd be better off on his own so they steal their chain and cut their bonds." "My heart bleeds." "Dresden use your head." "An uncontrolled hellion, free to wreak whatever havoc he wants, unrestricted by any accords or oversight." "Your client, the girl" "But Matthew had other ideas, I want him back" "You saw what he did to Primko." "Yeah,like you send him after them after the chain and..." "Didn't turn so well didn't?" "Naw." "Tell me." "Are you really good at what you do, in finding things?" "You can't afford me." "What if the prize was Caryn Harris?" "So,I find you your chain, deliver it to you and you guarantee the girl walks away unharmed?" "Oh A deal with the devil." "It's a little gentlemen's agreement." "Is that what you call your arrangement with High Council?" "?" "?" "?" "What's going on?" "?" "?" "right from the back of the transport van" "Whoa,Murphy,low, listen" "No sign of him." "Why?" "Okay,look,I can tell you this" "Jacobs killed Primko." "?" "I'm filed member I'm on the case" "If you corner him...." "Don't!" "And so far all you've manage to accomplish is getting your ?" "destroyed alienating ?" "loosing a client and attracting the attention of someone who treats hellions like his own personal laptops" "?" "O no, I think you've both this one very nicely!" "Let it go Harry" "Yeah you're right" "I mean the last thing I need is to get caught up in a power struggle between two hellions who are hung up with a girl with a thing for a bad boy" "You know some women, they just can't be saved." "You're going to try to save her" "Yeah." "Of course." "Well,how are you going to find--?" "The girl's." "About the difference between fantasy and reality?" "The fantasy is:" "Girl meets boy, they fall in love, they live happily ever after." "The reality is:" "Girl meet hellion, girl gets kidnapped... wizard has to save her... before she ends up dead." "Or worse." "Dresden!" "Caryn,what are you doing?" "Matthew's a hellion,okay." "He sold himself to darkness." "Everything he's told you, it's a lie." "That's not true." "Get out of here." "Caryn's not your concern." "Not anymore." "Well,I'm not leaving here without her." "Yeah,you are." "Okay,what have we got here Matthew?" "What are you up to?" "Is this some kind of demonic brain-washing ritual to make sure she does everything you want?" "You don't get it, do you." "Whever it is, you're not going to get away with it." "Sirota's out looking for you and sooner or later he will find you." "After I destroy the chain he won't have any hold on me." "What's the problem, what are you waiting for?" "Last chance Dresden." "Get out." "You don't have it do you?" "You've lost it,right?" "The chain of sin, you've lost it?" "What the hell is wrong with you?" "He's using you!" "You have no idea what you're talking about." "Let her go!" "Come another inch near her and I'm going to kill you." "Please!" "Caryn,I'm going to get you out of here." "?" "look for internal bleeding" "Nah forget it I'm fine" "Harry are you sure he didn't have the chain?" "well if he did why hanging around?" "What is that?" "?" "?" "?" "Or hidden it, knowing Matthew was after" "Harry what are you gone to do with the chain if you find it?" "I made a deal with Sorota He gets the chain back and Caryn goes free" "The woman who just hit you with the wine bottle?" "Am I missing something here?" "I mean what's the point of all of this?" "You're not bedding the girl;" "You're not getting paid" "You're risking your life for nothing." "Matthew could have killed you." "I was unconscious he could have killed me then,right?" "Yes." "Why didn't he?" "Part of his infernal plan no doubt" "Would you look at that!" "That" "Primko, he had this image seared into his palm," "HARRY:" "Some things just don't hell spawn and holy ground." "Combine things like that" "Here it is" "Oh" "It's beautiful." "And you found it in the Poor Box?" "I thought I'd keep it here until whoever put it in came back looking for it;" "second thoughts,you know." "It's an unusual piece." "Hm... it's a family heirloom from the old country." "My mother will be very happy to have it back." "Please tell your brother that hatred is a wasted emotion." "He only has one mother." "It saddens me when love turns to hate." "But just as mysterious, hate can turn to love" "Thank you" "Back already?" "well that didn't take long" "I hope you convince him to pay you some ?" "for your troubles" "Justice was done at least" "?" "save the damazel..." "Hurra'" "You're hiding something" "Doesn't matter now." "Tell me." "this simbols you describe" "I checked the text" "They were planning a transformation ritual." "But it wasn't for Caryn" "The ritual was for Matthew" "It would let destroy" "Harry, the boy wanted to go back to being human" "Oh well" "Sirota has the chain." "Yeah." "About that." "You didn't hand it over?" "Yeah." "All that deal with the devil stuff wasn't really sitting too good." "So now what?" "I think we need to speak with Matthew." "You can use the chain to call Matthew but if things go badly I cannot help you" "have some faith Bob have some faith" "If the incantation I provided you is correct, he should appear in moments." "That was fast." "Your loyal servant." "You found it" "Give it to me" "Now I want some answers" "Give me the chain" "Give it me!" "You done?" "Why the ritual?" "Trying to become mortal again?" "What were u planning?" "What do you care?" "Do you love her?" "Do you love her?" "Yes." "Yeah." "you gotta let her go." "Listen,I was this close to handing this" "Now you gonna let Caryn go" "Now we can break the chain and you can start a new life you can become human and disappear and I'll get the chain back to Sirota and tell him I was too late, you were gone." "and he finds you, he will kill you both." "I won't have that." "I can't let her go." "You have to." "for her" "You think that I haven't tried" "She knows what I am." "she was just supposed to be another conquest, just another soul for Sirota." "She saw through me." "She forgave me for everything for I had ever done or was gonna do." "I had no hope left, nothing." "And she walked into my damned life and she saved me." "How do I give that up?" "Tell me." "Well,I suppose there's only one thing left to do." "Yeh." "?" "?" "?" "Matthew is not trying to run amock." "He wants to be mortal." "He's in love." "You know love, an emotion, makes you feel all warm and fuzzy." "He's a helion" "But the High Council has some kind of witness protection program." "You've been watching too many cop shows." "My father was in it, and so was I." "No,you were simply taken off the radar." "You needed to be kept safe." "Well then,take Matthew and Caryn off the radar." "Make them safe." "Why should I help him, or you?" "You know if Matthew gives up evil for love," "It's a win Morgan" "Please,will you help me on this one?" "is there?" "Don't think so,but I've never done this before." "I hope not." "I like to think I was the first." "Place the catalysts Harry." "Yeah." "Earth." "Water." "air." "With these elements that the universe be joined" "You have to say what you need to say, do what you need to do." "Well,we'd like you to say it." "Well I don't know the words." "Harry,it's a simple blessing" "Bless you." "Be good and don't screw it up." "Is that it?" "I think." "Matthew..." "Caryn,this is what has to happen." "It's coming out." "Matthew!" "Matthew!" "Listen to me!" "I love you." "I love you!" "Hang on in there buddy!" "I love you!" "Matthew!" "Matthew!" "Yeah I'm ok" "I think that's my cue." "Oh,Morgan!" "Saving you from yourself!" "It's too late." "The chain is broken." "I'm free." "Kids." "You're mortal now." "Yes." "That means you're of no use to me anymore." "This is gonna hurt." "Caryn!" "Caryn,get out of the way!" "No,you can't do this." "Come on,you can't ..." "It's not worth it." "That was brash." "You've just killed a human being in front of a warden." "Young lady,goodnight." "Okay,okay." "Kill the water works." "Bob!" "did it work?" "For now" "was all we need." "I never get the girl." "Hey,did you really have to hit me that hard?" "Yes I did,I do what's necessary." "Thank you." "Yeah." "If Sirota finds out what you've done..." "Well,he won't because you're dead." "We have to go now." "Look,you look after each other." "Hey Morgan... thank you." "Not a word to anybody." "That was sweet." "Yeah." "Well,I gotta go clean up another mess." "Thought you'd still be here." "Where else would I be?" "You got something for me?" "Yeah." "Hot chocolate, a slice of pie." "Not what I had in mind." "I don't have time for dessert." "I've got a missing thief, a missing girl a suspect who threw out from the window and an unidentified burned guy in the morgue." "Are you speaking in code?" "You're pissing me off." "Murphy,all I'll got for you" "just my word a slice a pie" "Yeah so do i"
