Original subtitles

My God.

It's worse than I imagined.

An entire horde of...

Monsters.

How much longer we gotta sit on our dicks before you tell us what this is about?

Your employer will be here shortly.

He'll fill you in on the target.

"Target"?

As in just one?

Hell of a lot of guns for one guy.

Yeah, with odds like these, you might actually win a fight.

Okay.

And this is the species we're trying to save?

I still say we just go in ourselves.

Heh. We're a tactical strike force trained for precision demon removal.

This mission requires blunt instruments.

They certainly qualify.

Let them fight over who's the baddest dude in the room.

We know who it really is.

Oh my God.

Is that…

The vice fucking president.

Since there's no need for introductions, I'll get right to it.

This, gentlemen, is your primary objective.

An item of critical importance to our national security.

However, seeing as this item officially does not exist,

we need it retrieved off the books.

We've tracked the amulet to this location.

You'll find it around the neck of its current owner,

a man the US government considers a top-level threat.

He is extremely volatile, and prodigiously gifted in combat.

Engage him only with the full brunt of your firepower.

This superman son of a bitch got a name?

His name is Dante.

That's the guy we're supposed to be worried about?

What's he going to do? Get hair dye on us?

Laugh while you can.

You won't be much longer.

I met Dante once. Worked with him on a protection job.

I've dealt with killers and roughnecks of every grade,

but this guy, he's something else.

The way he moved, the hits he took.

I'd be dead now if it wasn't for him.

And you'll all be dead soon enough if you go after him.

Ain't no amount of money you could offer that'd be worth...

Five hundred thousand.

The bounty is 500,000 for whoever brings in Dante with the amulet.

And a bonus if he's alive for questioning.

Well, all right.

Let's go get him, then.

We will be deploying a civilian asset

to keep Dante distracted as you move in.

So, if we're doing all the work,

why'd you bring the Boy Scout patrol here?

They don't look like no jarheads to me.

These soldiers will be in the field overseeing the operation.

You'll deliver the package to them.

The contract opens as of midnight tonight.

That's all.

You in the cap with the nice eyes. Hold on a second.

You see something you like, sweetheart?

What you said was correct.

We're not jarheads.

We're demon hunters.

You're joking.

I know.

It's a lot to take in.

Someone walks up and tells you,

"Demons are real, and it's my job to kill them."

You're thinking the same thing anyone else would.

But unfortunately, it's the truth.

The worst truth is that not only are demons real,

they're really fucking hard to kill.

We've had to come up with our own methods.

Like these.

Anti-demon bullets.

Hit a human with one, and it works like any other bullet.

But hit a demon,

and this little liquid explodes

the instant it comes in contact with their DNA.

That's, uh, good to know.

Sometimes they pass for human.

They can even be incredibly convincing.

It's in the proportions.

The arms or legs will be a little too long.

Facial features too far apart.

Like they haven't quite evolved all the way.

There's also something in the eyes.

A void where the glimmer of a soul should be.

And, of course, the smell.

A faint mix of sulfur and cow shit.

Devil spawn motherfucker.

You were solid, boss. I don't think I even saw you blink.

I knew I was in good hands.

Lieutenant Arkham is the pride of this righteous army.

I'm just helping secure a world for our species.

That's all that matters.

Indeed.

And our world could not ask for a better soldier.

Was told to report to this room. At least, I think it was this room.

Let him in.

…a lot of nondescript doors and hallways down here.

Who the…

This is Anders, your newest member of DARKCOM Elite Ops.

"Anders"? Aren't you…

The only survivor of the White Rabbit's ambush.

I've watched your mission tapes. It is an honor to serve with you, ma'am.

Uh, Lieutenant?

Mary?

Lieutenant. Got you. 10-4.

Welcome to the team, chief.

- You sure about this guy, sir? - He requested this assignment.

God has tested him, and he was found worthy.

Soldier, where is the asset?

While I've got you here, who do I talk to about the menu, huh?

I can't even get a decent plate of…

Oh. Uh…

So, wait, what do I have to do again?

Dante?

You here?

Hey, Dante!

It's your buddy, Enzo!

Ah, nobody's... Whoa!

Dante! You are here.

Thank God!

I… I was worried I missed you.

Hey, Enzo. How've you been?

Ah, I could do better, to tell you the truth.

Like if you didn't have a… a barrel pressed to my temple right now.

Wish I could help you out there.

I do have a funny story for you, though.

You're gonna love this.

So, my last job, the one you gave me,

it turned out to be a setup so a shape-shifting demon baby

could try to steal my necklace.

Crazy, right?

That's the craziest thing I ever heard.

It wasn't my fault, Dante.

Honest. Don't blame poor old Enzo.

I'm just a middleman. A nobody.

It was the guy who gave me the job, the White Rabbit.

He's the one who set the whole thing up.

See, he comes into my office, talking all smooth,

and I’m mesmerized!

All we've got to do is get to him first,

and then split the 500 between us.

You're saying you only sent me into a trap

because a demon that looks like a giant rabbit tricked you into doing it?

Pretty much. Yeah.

All right, that checks out.

What are you doing here?

I brought you the second half of your fee.

Just 'cause the job was fake don't mean you don't get paid, right?

Pure, uncut American green.

And all you had to do was fight a baby for it.

And my own brother.

The shape-shifter showed up again later disguised as him.

Nothing like how he'd actually look now, but still, it was a good effort.

Oh. Your brother?

Talk about digging up the past, huh?

Ugh.

You all right, kid?

I keep telling you. What's my only rule?

I'll take any job that pays, especially if it involves killing demons.

- Just as long as I don't have to care. - As you don't have to care.

I know. So, you and me, we're all good now, yeah?

You know, I look at you like my own son.

I would take a bullet for you.

Well, maybe not a bullet.

Definitely a blade, like a little jab.

Point is, I would never set you up like that on purpose.

So there aren't multiple teams of mercenaries outside,

closing in around us right now?

Okay.

I set you up this time, but only 'cause they made me.

I know I've got another one of these…

There it is.

Look, Dante, those guys out there are after your necklace too,

and it's the feds who are paying them.

This thing goes right to the top.

What say you just give the bling to me, and I'll take it over to them, huh?

No, muss, no fuss.

I can't do it, Enzo.

She gave me this necklace.

This isn't just a necklace, Dante. It's a part of our family's history.

I need you to take good care of it, okay?

You have to keep this safe.

Always.

You promise?

It's the last thing of hers that I have. No one is going to take it from me.

Fair enough.

I'll just, uh, let you get ready for the big throwdown then, and head on…

I didn't say we were good yet.

We're here for the amulet.

Drop the gun and hand it over.

I said, drop the gun!

I don't think that's the guy.

Of course it's not the guy!

Heh.

Fire!

Who are we shooting at?

Hey!

Come on, you ain't shit, pal!

Now we're good.

Was the gag really necessary?

All right, I see your point.

- You managed not to kill any of them. - I had to add a little challenge.

You wouldn't happen to know why my family heirloom

is New York's hottest fashion accessory?

If I had that info, I'd have tried to sell it to you the second I got here.

Give me some credit!

What are you doing now?

I work better with music.

I'll give you one thing. This guy's got taste!

Huh?

How the fuck?

Ah, don't feel bad.

I heal extremely fast.

Like a superhero.

Not that I call myself a superhero,

but your mom does.

Shoryuken!

You win!

Perfect.

Hey, Pat.

Our boys still getting their asses kicked?

Yep.

I feel bad for you, Doc.

First time in the field, and we're not even going to see action.

Mm-mm. My brain is too valuable to risk taking into a combat zone.

I only came so I can examine the quantum transmitter

at the soonest possible moment.

Come on, you don't want to pick up a sweet battle scar like my man here?

King.

What? I'm saying he's a badass.

You went toe-to-paw with the White Rabbit and lived.

I got lucky, that's all.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Yo, yo, yo, yo. What was that?

It looks like he can heal himself.

Any explanations there, Doc?

Uh, not at the moment.

Is he genetically enhanced somehow?

I have a theory.

I'll be testing it shortly.

Great, so the guy's some sort of super soldier,

and he's wearing half the transmitter

that keeps our reality from being swarmed by the armies of Hell

as a necklace.

Yeah, he really is just wearing it, isn't he?

Kind of makes you question Sparda's whole plan.

Excuse me, but, um, what's an ancient Greek city-state got to do with this?

Not Sparta, Sparda.

Did no one read the intelligence briefing I prepared?

I read it.

Thank you.

Sparda's the one Hell dweller who might be worth not vaporizing on sight.

He was a demon knight, whatever that means.

Big bad warrior, blah blah blah.

Served as the right hand of Mundus, the demons' king,

2,000 years ago when our world was still connected to their shithole.

And Mundus wasn't happy just ruling the shithole.

He wanted to conquer humanity,

make slaves of us all.

Typical demon shit.

And I guess Sparda woke up one day and realized,

"Hey, this is evil as fuck,"

so he rebelled.

He fought against Mundus, taking out hundreds of his own former legions.

Kind of the least he could fucking do, really.

But even he couldn't stop an entire world of abominations.

The only way to protect humanity was to seal the realms off from each other.

He himself stayed on our side.

Which, if that's true,

he's been MI-fucking-A

whenever shit hits the fan for the past few millennia.

So, maybe he is just another pit-beast after all.

Dante, remember me?

Let's see.

Seven feet tall,

face like someone carved a gargoyle out of beef jerky?

I do remember.

Arnie, right? How are the kids?

Great, thanks.

Julie just got into Yale.

So, look.

Uh, there's a big-ass bounty on that necklace of yours.

I was thinking,

you and me bring it in together, huh?

Split the dough.

Fifty-fifty.

That's a better offer than someone made.

But it's gonna be a hard no.

Ah, worth a shot.

Sorry about the place.

No hard feelings?

Aw, I thought the big guy would get at least a hit in or something. Man!

These dudes give low-life hired killers a bad name.

Oh.

Your daughters?

I'm all they've got, you know?

I went to sign up for the army. No other option.

This recruiter comes to me saying, "Join the important fight from home."

He left out the demons from Hell part, though.

Kinda wish he'd led with "the demons from Hell" part.

Might've answered differently.

It's time.

I'm going in.

Copy that, Lieutenant.

You sure you don't need any help?

Just get the truck warmed up.

Hey. That was actually kinda close.

Closer than you think.

Hey!

Of course the goon squad was a misdirect.

Who was that chick?

What a woman!

I don't care who she is.

I made a promise.

And I'm going to keep it.

So, who here's looking for representation?

Hey, lady.

Ow. What's in that thing?

I watched you fighting and wondered,

"What the fuck kind of person could shake off bullets like that?"

A really, really awesome one.

Or not a person at all.

That was an anti-demon round I hit you with.

Which means, no matter how good you might be at hiding it, you're a demon.

Ripped and irresistible dreamboat, I know.

Still can't just tear a guy's clothes off.

You're not demon.

But your blood…

I've heard it was possible.

I never thought I'd see one, though.

You're a hybrid.

Part human. Part demon.

Wait. You think I'm part demon?

You are. And I've got the one weapon on Earth...

Seriously? Part demon?

If you knew how many of those I've killed, you'd know how crazy you sound.

Demons kill their own all the time.

Death and destruction is the core of your nature.

Trust me, I know all about demons' nature.

I'm not one of them.

How else can you explain what you're capable of?

You even fight like they do.

Unholy strength but no intelligence.

No strategy.

I don't know. Seems like I managed to catch you.

And since we're getting so personal,

what does everyone want with my mom's necklace?

You don't even know what this really is, do you?

I know that it's mine!

All yours, Hellblood.

Jackpot!

Oh.

Usually we don't bother taking members of your species prisoner.

But we do have the tech for it.

To cover special circumstances.

Insurance. Just in case you manage to get out of the truck.

What truck?

Who caught who now, motherfucker?
