Rain's gone.

Are you certain he's dead?

Oh, absolutely.

And his death will cause turmoil within
the entire organization. But then, of

course, Franklin Croft can step in and
fill the vacuum.

Don't forget why you were there.

Since the beginning of time, mankind has
existed between the world of light and

the world of darkness. This journal
chronicles the work of our secret

known as the Legacy, created to protect
the innocent from those creatures that

inhabit the shadows.

It's all my fault, isn't it? Alex, don't
talk like that.

No, I'm... I'm the one who brought Cross
in.

I'm the one who pushed Derek to the
edge.

Alex, for Cross, that is true.

Derek got himself in this jam.

It's not your fault.

How could you do this, Derek?

How could you nurture me all these
years?

Encourage me to be my best?

Teach me right from wrong?

And be living this double life?

I hope you find peace.

Oh, this will do quite nicely.

Especially considering you'll tend to.

I just got off the phone from Detective
Escalante.

They still haven't found the body yet.

Yeah, well, I'm not sure we should...
even hope to find the

body. By now, the tide's probably
carried him miles from here.

Yeah, I think that we pretty much have
to give up hope that he has survived.

I just can't imagine this place without
Derek.

Yeah, I can't picture him taking his own
life.

No, he was the last person I would have
thought would have committed suicide.

Well, the fact that he killed himself
has to be seen as a demission of his

guilt.

In honour...

You're like rain.

How are you holding up?

Oh, I feel pretty awful.

I can't believe Derek's gone.

Perhaps it's for the best.

How can you say that?

Because he was living his life as a lie.

And obviously it was a tremendous burden
on his conscience.

Look, I know how close the two of you
were.

But he's at peace and his death has
paved the way to make the proper changes

within the legacy.

The first step is to find out which of
your associates we can work with.

What's that supposed to mean?

We're going to need a loyal and
dedicated team to transform the San

house. And then after that, we can work
on the other houses one by one.

Well, I think everyone here will welcome
the changes that we've been talking

about. I hope so.

By the way, is Nick proficient with
computers?

Yeah, why?

I was just thinking what an asset he is.
Well, don't underestimate Rachel and

Kristen.

I don't underestimate any of you.

You've got an incredible teammate.

Yeah, well, I always thought that we'd
all be together for years.

Sometimes change comes when you least
expect it.

Don't worry, it'll all work out in the
end.

I got off the phone with Peter Wallace
in London. He's asked if I could stand

as interim preceptor of this house.

Don't you already have a job?

Yes, but there are so many loose ends
here. It was thought best if I stay on

a while.

I won't give Peter my answer until I
know I have your support.

Talking about Derek's replacement.

That makes me feel strange.

Well, I understand.

But we can make it work.

Only if you want it to.

After all, this is your house, not mine.

Chris, can I count on you?

Actually, I was thinking of going back
to Boston.

Well, I don't blame you, but London's
asked if you could stay on for a while.

Help effect a smooth transition.

Well, then I'll do whatever's necessary
to help.

To be perfectly honest, I have a little
bit of a problem.

We haven't even found Derek's body yet,
and you're already taking measurements

on his office.

I understand your reaction.

But let's face it.

Somebody has to step in and fill the
void.

Put this house back on track.

I was unaware that we had derailed.

Everything is coming together
marvelously.

Wallace offered me the job.

As we knew he would.

Franklin Cross was the logical choice.

I hope our friends of the house are
coming to grips with Derek's infamy. The

guest appearance of Arthur Middleton
certainly did the trick.

It is very conceivable that Derek not
only killed an innocent man...

But it was the assassin all along.

You were very convincing.

Child's play.

I'm assuming now that Derek is out of
the way, you will be able to deliver a

result quickly.

Well, I'm afraid we have a few problems.

Nick Boyle, for one.

If he's a problem, deal with him.

How's my Alex doing?

Her acceptance of Derek's guilt is
helping to win the others over.

We waited a long time to find someone
who would give us the advantage we

in the San Francisco house, so let's use
her to the fullest before we have to

discard her.

You sure that'll be necessary?

Right now.

Alex thinks she's doing something noble
for the legacy.

Once she finds out our true intentions,
she'll become our worst enemy, and

she'll have to be terminated.

Do you have any idea how to rig this up
to an IV drip?

What were you up to last night?

I stopped looking at the clock around
three.

But the good news is that we are fully
functional again. We lost a few thousand

files.

But as luck would have it... Let me
guess.

We lost all the files regarding Reed
Horton.

Somebody give that woman a prize.

Does anybody know anything about this?

Yeah. That's why their favorite mementos
took it off Warlock.

Five years back.

Where did you find it?

It was stuck in my headboard this
morning when I woke up.

What is this?

Some kind of primitive initiation right
you have here.

Oh, you think I did it?

Who else would have put it there?

Maybe Derek's ghost is a little bit
restless and he wanted to tell you

like, don't sleep in my bed.

Thank you for your very recent analysis,
Mr. Boyle.

You'll find that I run things a little
differently than Derek.

First off, I know you all work on
several cases simultaneously.

So I'm going to start the practice of
getting together at 8 every morning to

review the status of each case so that
we're all up to speed.

I have a bit of a problem with that.

Oh, I'm sorry, Rachel.

Between your daughter and your practice,
you have other obligations.

Right. Well, we'll keep you in the loop
with email or memo.

Email and memo? You don't think this is
getting a little bit Big Brother -ish? I

know it sounds very structured, but
it'll actually give you more freedom.

And it will allow me to keep tabs on
what's going on without having to look

your shoulder all the time.

Well, that's good, because I get very
uncomfortable when people are looking

my shoulder all the time.

Understood.

All right.

Let's all meet in the control room in
one hour.

Got it?

The blood of the innocent victims.

All right, let's get started, shall we?

Nick, I would like you to spearhead the
investigation into Derek.

You know, I spent my fair share of time
questioning Derek's motives, but I never

saw him do anything contrary to the
principles of the legacy.

Well, that's what makes your job all the
more important, Mr. Boyle.

And I'm sure you'll perform it to the
best of your ability.

Kristen, I'd also like you to do a
similar probe into your former house.

You want me to investigate Jane
Witherspoon?

Not Jane per se, but as part of a Horton
investigation, we found that both

houses were guilty of disseminating
false information, and I want them both

scrutinized. I was at the Boston house
for three years. I find it really hard

believe anything underhanded could be
going on there.

Well, we all thought that about this
house, didn't we?

Listen, um...

Isn't this a job for the chief
investigator's office?

Well, I'll be wearing two hats for the
time being.

I've downloaded all of the Boston files
onto our main thing.

Does Jane know about this?

No. And no one here is at liberty to
discuss this investigation with her. Is

that clear?

Well, one thing is clear, and that is
I'm not participating in this witch

Chris, hands off.

Don't you touch me. Hey!

Bring it on.

Okay, okay. We all need to cool down a
little bit.

Nick can get very worked up sometimes,
okay?

Not off to a very good start, am I?

He's not helping.

Hello, Nick.

I'm not a ghost.

I know this must be a bit of a shock.

That's the understatement of the decade.

You need to know that the man posing as
Franklin Cross is actually

Reed Horton.

So he isn't dead either?

The dark side obviously brought them
back to be part of their plot to

our house.

Dark side called them up from hell?

What, did they run a farm team down
there? How do you know this?

Well, when Cross came to the house, I
suspected things weren't as they

I couldn't figure out why he was so
intent on pinning the murders on me.

So I forked his hand.

By dazing your own death?

I set everything up beforehand.

Like loading my own gun with blanks and
waiting for high tide so when I...

Went up the cliffs.

I wouldn't smash into the rocks below.

How is faking your suicide supposed to
help?

It wasn't a suicide.

Horton shot me.

Pardon me for having a bit of a problem
with all of this, but how do I know that

Cross isn't who he says he is and you
didn't make a deal with the dark side?

You don't.

But if you doubt me, you better shoot me
now, because with or without you, I'm

going after Horton.

I'll see what I can dig up.

I gather that you're the guy responsible
for the knife.

Did you appreciate it?

No, but I did.

So how have you been getting in and out
of here without tripping any of the

alarms? Oh, there are more hidden
passageways in this house than you could

imagine.

You've got to be kidding me.

You've heard something new every day.

Talk to you tomorrow.

So, not off to a very rousing start as a
preacher.

It's important to see how they would
react.

It appears there are some personal
issues to deal with.

You mean Nick?

Oh, I'm afraid he's beyond to hope.

No, I was referring to Kristen.

Do you think she can be brought around
to our way of thinking?

Well, it's possible. She's very bright,
but very sensitive.

Well, if you feel she's worth it, I
think we can win her back.

Well, not if you ask her to look for
dirt on Jane Witherspoon.

What is the purpose of digging into the
Boston house?

It's an opportunity we cannot pass up.

Where did you come from?

Alice, the Boston house is in turmoil as
a result of the revelations about

Derek. Now is the time for us to make
our move and instigate a reorganization.

I feel certain that we can end up with a
membership much more sympathetic to our

cause. Well, can we do it without
attacking Jane?

Unfortunately, when you want to bring
about change, people who refuse to bend

find themselves, well, broken.

It'll all work out, Alex.

Remember, our goal is a new beginning
for the legacy.

Have faith, Alex.

My itinerary is inaccessible without
prior approved clearance.

I took a correspondence course in
computer hacking.

Well, did you find out anything
interesting?

Any anomalies, incongruities,
discrepancies?

No, not yet.

Just what exactly are you trying to
accomplish here?

Oh, I'm just trying to learn all I can
about my new boss.

When are you going to get a grip on
reality, Nick?

Derek betrayed you. He betrayed all of
us.

Now, we have a job to do here. Your
energy would be better spent finding out

and where to combat evil.

Yeah, you never know where evil's going
to turn out, do you?

You know, you've had a chip on your
shoulder ever since I got here.

You might be better off transferring to
another house.

The last time I actually looked around,
this was my house.

Not anymore.

I want you out.

What, you think you can just kick me
out? Just like that?

That's the beauty of being preset.

I can.

Now get your gear and get out.

Hey, hey, hey.

What's going on here, Nick?

Nick's just leaving.

What just happened here?

Mr. Boyle and myself.

Didn't see eye to eye on how he should
be spending his time.

We started out talking, and he attacked
me.

Without provocation?

Look, he's very hot -headed.

I'm sorry.

I know he's your friend, but it's just
not going to work out for him here.

Not going to work out for him here? What
are you trying to say?

I've told him he's no longer welcome.

What, so you just fired him? No, I'm not
going to... I'm sorry.

This is not negotiable.

No. Kristen and Rachel?

They may work out.

Well, I sure hope so, because I'm
beginning to feel very lonely around

It's Dad Rain.

Arthur?

And either of you have seen Nick?

Yeah.

He's gone.

Gone where?

I don't know. He's just, he's gone for
good.

How do you know?

Me and Franklin got into it a little
while ago and he asked me to leave.

Can he do that?

Well, he is the precept.

Excuse me.

Can you explain something?

Understand you and Nick butted heads and
what, you forced him to leave?

My short relationship with Nick Boyle
far surpassed what you would categorize

head -butting.

He had a severe problem dealing with my
authority.

Nick is stubborn, but that doesn't sound
like him.

Well, I'm not saying one day we might
welcome him back into the fold.

But for right now, Nick is no longer a
member of the legacy.

This is crazy.

First Derek, and now Nick.

What is going on?

The legacies needed are good shaking up
for years.

We have the ability to transform this
house into something wonderful.

And if we're lucky, use the lesson we've
learned to rejuvenate the whole

organization.

What he's saying does make sense.

Doing research on an old case?

Never seems to end.

I just wanted to personally let you know
how sorry I am it didn't work out for

Nick.

So am I.

The group that I've depended on from my
friends who've been supporters quickly

falling apart at the seams.

Well, I'm sure if we all pull together,
we can get back to the tight -knit team

you were before.

I think you expect too much.

Are you familiar with the story of
Procruste's bed?

Greek mythology.

Procruste's invited travelers to spend
the night and then chain them to the

And he wanted everyone to fit that bed
exactly. So if they were too short, he

stretched them too long and he chopped
off their legs.

So your point is that I shouldn't make
you all try to conform to my rigid point

of view. I would say that is a fair
interpretation.

Didn't Theseus chain Procrustes to his
own bed and chop off his head?

And if I'm not mistaken, Theseus was an
early member of the legacy.

So you figure Arthur got attacked in
this room?

Yes, brutally attacked.

Did you get any kind of a flash on who
it might have been?

No. I only felt and saw Arthur's
painting.

What are you looking for?

Well, I figured legacy albums are all
wired for sight and sound. There's no

reason why Arthur might have done it to
his.

I'm not mistaken.

There's a little camera right here.

Oh, excellent.

I hope that he activated before he was
attacked.

If you've got the toys, you're probably
going to play with them, right?

There's got to be some sort of receptor
or something around that thing.

It's a pretty cool setup. We should get
one of these for the house.

Yeah.

If Horton killed Arthur four days ago,
then who was at the house?

An accomplice.

Stop it there.

Looks like he's having a hard time
keeping it together.

Yeah. We may have found his Achilles
heel.

So he's some kind of mass of spectral
power.

Looks like when he expends energy, it
weakens him.

We may need to test him.

See how much he can take if we really
push him.

I think I'd enjoy doing that.

I thought you were gone, Mr. Boyle.

Neat trick.

Can I teach you that on the other side?

What are you doing here?

We just had a little bit of unfinished
business.

I told you, I'm not somebody you want to
provoke.

No, I'm a slow learner.

Let's have some privacy, shall we?

Whatever turns you on.

Don't force me to kill you, Nick.

Alex would be so disappointed.

And for whatever reason, she's really
fond of you.

Isn't this the part where before you
kill me, you confess to everything?

Like who you really are?

Are you murdered, Arthur Middleton?

Oh.

I underestimated you.

You wouldn't be the first.

I'm going to have to disappoint Alex
after all. You figure?

You're looking a little pale, Cross.

Franklin! What's going on in there?

Franklin, open the door!

Should I let her in?

Should I let her know how crazy you've
become? How you're actually trying to

murder a legacy precept?

Yeah. Yeah, let her in.

So she can see the real you.

Alex, come here. Come here. Listen,
listen.

I can't get the door open. It's locked.

Mary?

So what did you do with the real cross?

You won't live long enough to find out.

What just happened?

Your friend was insane.

He tried to kill me. Why would he try to
kill you?

Well, he snuck in here and started
ranting on about how I was trying to

him and Derek.

And then he lunged at me.

What's going to happen to him?

Well, he's far too dangerous for us to
deal with.

We'll have to call London and let them
handle the situation.

I just hope there aren't any more
surprises laying in wait for us in this

My God, are you all right?

I've been better.

Had a little electroshock therapy from
our boy.

Did it weaken him?

I don't know, but when I stuck him with
the K -bar, it really got him going.

Didn't draw any blood, but he was
flickering like a TV set.

Excellent. And what about you?

Well, I just spoke to a friend at the
police department.

Seems when they're directing the baby
from my body, they pulled out the

of someone else.

From what they told me, it could be
Cross.

They're going to do a DNA match.

Well, they couldn't make a positive ID?

No. Thought he was badly mauled by
sharks or who knows what.

Maybe he's going to lay off the charter
at Fisherman's Wharf for a while.

So you think we have enough to convince
the others?

Well, once they see this videotape of
Middleton's death, they'll have to

And how are we going to deal with
Horton?

Yeah.

I thought that these might do the trick.

You want us to go in there and shoot
him?

Mm -hmm.

You know, Derek, maybe that little fall
off the cliff rang your bell a little

bit more than you thought. You see Buddy
back at the house? He's a spirit. He's

not flesh from Biden. Last time that I
checked, bullets don't do much damage to

ectoplasm. I know.

But these aren't ordinary bullets.

I loaded him with a pinch of Horton's
remains.

You didn't dig him up?

No, no, no.

Fortunately, he was cremated.

Let's just borrow a few of his ashes.

I'm hoping that a combination of
physical force and metaphysical contact

his former corporate self will do the
trick.

Well, I hope so, too. I mean, it'd be
nice if this time when you killed me,

stayed dead.

Yeah.

London wants a detailed report on what
transpired with Nick.

How are they planning on handling it?

Well, they put all the houses on full
alert, and they're calling in a team of

specialists to help contain the
situation.

Don't you think that's a little bit of
overkill?

Well, normally I'd agree with you,
but...

Nick's a special case.

He's a trained killer.

And worst of all, he's gone over the
edge.

See, there you go.

Talking behind my back again.

I can't believe you come back here.

I missed the plate.

Alex, call security.

I want Mr. Boyle taken into custody.

I heard you called an entire team in to
contain me.

I'm flattered.

Nick, why did you come back?

Because this time I brought a friend.

Rain?

Franklin said you committed suicide.

He lied.

All lies, Alex.

No, don't listen to him.

I saw him die with my own eyes.

He's done a deal with the dark side.

And they've allowed him to come back.

Nothing quite so dramatic.

The bullet you shot me with was a blank.

This isn't Cross.

It's Reed Horton.

Horton?

That doesn't make any sense.

This is the way, Kirsten, it gets
better.

I have a tape of this man murdering
Arthur Middleton the day before he came

see you all.

This is exactly... He's

erased it.

Your prophetic attempts to discredit me
are getting more desperate by the

minute. But you and I know the truth.

You killed Arthur just like you killed
Cross.

The police pulled Cross's body out of
the bay this morning.

This is preposterous.

I got sloppy weed.

Admit it.

You never were as clever as you thought
you were.

You made mistakes 20 years ago.

And you're still making them today.

You made the mistake coming back here.

Both of you.

I don't think so.

Derek, no.

Since it's come down to this, has it?

You're going to kill me for the second
time.

Oh, my God.

I don't believe this.

They used you, Alex.

And when they were done with you, they
would have killed you.

Don't listen to him, Alex.

No, you're the one who deserves to die.

You sick, twisted creature.

Since you had a taste for power, you
thought you were God. You thought you

murder me and get away with it. You were
the one who turned to the other side,

not me.

I've seen your father over there,
rotting in hell.

He's saving your place, my friend, right
by his side.

Next time you see him, Tell him I say
hello.

Tell him yourself.

No!

Alex! Alex!

You can't dispatch me that

easily.

We still have a score to settle.

This is where I knit her own cloth.

Are you certain this is the same place?

Yeah.

I'm positive.

Well, I don't get it. It looks like no
one's been here for years.

We have to find her, Derek. She was the
one behind all this.

I have a feeling she'll find us.

I wouldn't be surprised if she or Horton
will make another attempt on the house.

I'm so sorry about all this, Derek.

There's no need to be sorry.

You

think?

The place was empty.

I spoke to the San Francisco police on
the way back. They confirmed that the

body they found was Cross.

I am so sorry, Derek. I just... I am
sorry I didn't believe you.

Or you, Nick. It's... The facts were
pretty persuasive.

Horton played all of us.

Well, Horton was always a very powerful
and very seductive person.

I don't blame anyone for falling under
his spell.

Let's just forget about it, put it
behind us, and learn from it.

Yeah, I don't know how easy it's going
to be to just put it behind us.

Yeah, I know. I'm struggling with some
pretty intense negative emotions.

So am I.

Well, it's been a long night, so I think
we're going to need to sack.

That's a good idea.

Everything always looks better in the
morning, right?

Hey, Derek.

Hi.

So am I.

Thanks.

Well, Derek, what more can I say?

You don't need to say anything.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I think so.

Get some rest.

There are things in all of our pasts
that would alter our perceptions of each

other.

Some of these may come to light, and
some will go unspoken forever.

I only hope, when we are confronted by
these revelations, we don't forget the

trust and bonds we've worked so hard to
forge.
