-[Vanessa] Previously on Van Helsing... -I need a legion.

I've been here before. The mural, the key...

-Dmitri said this is gonna set him free. -[yelling] Hey!

They gassed us, scooped up Vanessa, got out real quick.

-Where you headed? -Trying to find a friend.

-[Scarlett] We're going now. -[Julius] What? Why?

[Axel] They eat vampires.

These things cook up like "turducken." You never had one?

[yells]

-You spoiled dinner! -[bangs]

-[groans] -Toss that bitch who stabbed me.

[yelling, screaming]

Shit!

Okay. What can I get...

...you?

-Steak. -And how would you like that?

-[growls] Raw. -Rare?

[growls] Raw.

Okay, suit yourself. Hey, Wayne? Steak. Raw.

-Raw? -You heard me. That's how he ordered it.

Are we serving Dobermans now?

[waitress chuckles]

Order up.

[man growls]

Bon appétit.

-Glass. -Beg pardon?

-[yells] Glass! -Easy, fella!

-We gonna have a problem? -Apologies.

Glass.

[growls]

[gulps]

[gasps]

-[pops] -[gasps]

[gasps]

Okay, you know what? I think it's time that you just paid up and skedaddled.

-Harkers. -Excuse me?

Where are Harkers?

Figures you'd be looking for those nutcases.

Weird begets weird.

Where are Harkers?

They've got a farm on the west edge of the county.

Doomsday hermits always goin' on about some nonsense.

That'll be eight bucks.

[grunts]

[grunts]

-Jesus H. Christ. -[hisses]

[man screams]

-[faint yelling] -[gunshots popping]

[man] Stop! Stop!

[mutters] No, no. Shit.

-Come on, we gotta go. -You think?

Let's go.

[grunts]

Make sure there's one in the chamber. Pack light, move quick.

Looks good on you.

-Take me with you! -Piss off.

Wait!

[hissing, squealing]

-[screeching] -You have to take me with you.

-[screeching] -[bangs]

-So much for that exit. -I can help you guys get outta here.

I'm starting to think you're worth a bullet.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I know the terrain.

-What are they doing? -I don't know.

[screeching]

Oh, shit.

I know a safe place. The vampires can't get there.

-Crooked Falls? -You know exactly how to get there?

I can lead you up the mountain, get you close enough.

You have to take me with you.

-[Scarlett] Hey, we gotta move now. -Go! Go!

Go. Go!

-[bangs] -[screeches]

-[Scarlett] We need to split up. -[Doc] What? Are you nuts?

It's the key that they're after.

Julius, I need you to take this and guard this with your life.

-They'll never suspect you of having it. -I will.

-Axel and I will draw them away. -[Axel] I love this plan.

Hey. You need to go with him.

You guys are gonna go 45 miles due east up the mountain.

We'll meet you at Crooked Falls. Okay? Go.

-Okay. -That weapon is your friend, Doc.

Okay.

-Making it easy for them? -You afraid of a fight?

A fight? No. Dying? Little bit.

One is wounded. But they cannot hide.

That is Van Helsing blood. Send Ivory and two sisters.

-Bring the Van Helsing back alive. -[hisses]

[hissing]

-Go. -You kill the rest!

Your level of impulsiveness makes me question your very survival.

[grunts]

But the bloodshed leads this way.

[thunder rumbles]

Exactly so.

[guard] You guys are lucky I got you out when I did.

[Doc] You? You didn't do anything.

[Julius] Just keep on moving.

It's just up here. Not much further.

What? You don't have a goddamn clue where you're going, do you?

I've had enough of your bullshit. If you keep--

-[growls] -[Doc yelps]

Jesus!

-Push him off! -Get off!

Push him off!

Get up, damn it!

[growls]

[Doc] Oh, shit.

[growls]

Get off!

Get off!

[panting]

-You bit? -No.

-I'm okay. I'll be okay. -Were you bitten?

Please. No, no, no.

-You had to do it. -I know.

We gotta go.

We gotta go now.

[man] Scarlett, you're so pretty.

-[Scarlett moans] Stop. -No, I really mean it.

-Yeah, so do I! -What's the problem?

-It's just-- it feels weird. -Weird? You think I'm weird?

-Davey, I didn't say that. -I knew it.

Knew what?

Everyone said, "Don't go out with 'Scary Scarlett.'"

-Don't call me that. -Scary Scarlett.

-Don't you say it. -Fine, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Crazy bitch!

Yeah, and I'm not coming back!

Rough night?

Because of you, everyone thinks we're freaks.

I'm a social outcast because you think I need to be some great vampire killer!

-Scar, listen-- -Listen? I am done listening!

Vampires aren't real, Dad. I'm done.

Scarlett!

I don't see them. What if they don't take the bait?

If they didn't find the blood, they'll sure as shit hear you yacking.

-[gun blast echoes] -What are you doing?

-The point was for them to follow us. -Yeah, follow. Not find.

[distant screeching]

-Shit. -Okay, here we go.

I count three. Watch my six.

[gunfire rattles]

-God damn it. What are these guys, ghosts? -Worse.

-[gasps] -Axel!

-What the hell are these bitches? -They existed long before the Rising.

-200 years. -[Axel] Can we fight them?

Against one? I like our chances. Three? Not so much.

-[hissing] -[Axel] What do you suggest we do?

Follow me. Hurry!

[Axel grunts]

[Axel] What are they doing? They should have slaughtered us by now.

They won't fight on hallowed ground.

You're kiddin' me. This cross mumbo-jumbo is real?

These sisters are pure evil, but they still honor the dead.

[Axel laughs]

-Hey. Come on, I'm right here. -[Axel] Okay, okay.

-I'm right here. -Don't poke the bear.

We all know you're tough. Let's go while the going's good.

[hisses]

We're gonna have to settle soon.

Ask and you shall receive.

Oh, shit.

[Scarlett gasps]

Gross.

Look at these idiots. They grab this when the Rising happens.

They don't go for food or water.

A lot of good it did them.

-Oh! -[flutters]

Remember when this shit used to mean something? Ladies first.

-[moans] -[crunches]

-You're still eating? -This food is incredible.

We had chips back in my day, but never these type of flavors.

Who knew sour cream and onion would taste so good together?

And nacho?

"Nacho." I don't even know what that word means.

I mean, it's like-- okay, it's kinda like cheese.

-And spicy? And-- -"Not yo' cheese."

What?

"Not your cheese."

-Oh! "Not yo' cheese"! -Yeah! [laughs]

I missed so, so much. And that's just the food!

-It's like time really stopped for you. -Yeah, pretty much.

Time sure hit me with a bunch of punches. Knocked me out cold.

-You know all about that, right, Doc? -Not like you.

My darkness was always on the human side.

Breakfast?

No. My guts are still turning from last night.

Anyway, we should stock up and hit the road.

[Julius] Good thing.

[Doc] You gotta be kidding me. How did I miss it?

-Kit-Kat? -Axel would be so jealous right now.

-What's the deal with you two? -What do you mean?

Well, you guys seem like you have a little... history.

-Ex-boyfriend? -Something like that.

[faint mewing]

-Who's there? -[meowing]

-Hello? -[owl hooting]

-Dad? This isn't funny. -[faint meowing]

[growls] Harker.

Who are you?

I'm warning you, mister! Back off!

[snarls] Harker!

[snarls]

-[gunshot pops] -[gasps]

[whimpers]

You hesitated.

[gasps, shudders]

-Why did you do that? -That, my dear, was a vampire.

And you're gonna kill it.

[moans]

[Dad] Stay calm. Stand your ground, find your courage.

-I can't. -You have to.

All the years and training have been for this moment. Do it right now.

Remember, it's not human. That man died the second he changed. So do it!

[snarls]

You are weak. [laughs]

More will come! And you will die.

-Do it! -[yells]

I'm sorry!

[Scarlett whimpers]

-You did good, Scar. You did real good. -[sobbing]

Your mother would be proud.

Shh. It's okay. You're gonna be okay.

[Axel sighs]

-Can I ask you a personal question? -I guess.

How'd you get so... kung-fu-ey?

My dad.

Um...

-Yeah, I-- -He a good guy?

Mm-hmm. Mostly.

He's pretty intense.

He trained me to kill vampires since I was a kid, way before the Rising.

-Must have been a lot of fun. -You could say that I... [chuckles]

I took the term "misspent youth" to another level.

-[Axel chuckles] -He knew.

He knew one day they were all gonna come out of hiding.

-He knew who you really were, then? -I don't know.

-He never said anything to me. -At least you were prepared.

Nobody else was. It must have taken a lot for him to give you that.

Yeah. It cost a lot, too.

-What about you? -Me?

No, hold on, let me guess.

You're an army brat, hauled all over the country,

-raised to do your duty. -Four generations of military,

sitting around the dinner table, swapping war stories,

apple pie, American flags, all that shit?

-Yeah. -Not even close.

What? No. Sorry. Hold on, so...

Vanessa was laying on a slab for three years... and you never left her.

Nobody gave you orders after the Rising, so...

No, that kind of commitment, that's-- that's in your blood.

Well, I'm the first person of my family

to sign up for military service. I guarantee you that.

Something made you who you are.

What?

I had a sister too.

The way things shook out in my family, it was on me to look after her.

-What happened? -It was a lifetime ago, you know?

I was 13. Dropped her off at the park, in the swings.

Went off and played ball with other kids, and then...

when I came back, she was just gone. Never saw her again.

[sighs] Shit.

People tell you over and over again,

"It's not your fault" and "You were a kid,"

and blah, blah.

At the end of the day, I lost her.

[quavers] It was on my watch.

Sorry.

Anyway... how about you? What you been doing all this time

out there slaying vampires all by yourself?

-That had to get lonely. -It's pretty great, actually.

For the first time in my life, I fit in.

-And I know my place. -[chuckles]

You don't mind a little company, now, do you?

Nah.

-I'm not cramping your style? -Not yet.

[moans] Mm-- uh-mm. Hm-mm.

Hold on. Did you...?

You didn't, you know, Vanessa...?

-No, no. -Okay, cool.

-Not even close. -Okay.

-I knew that shower story was bullshit. -[laughs]

Morning.

[Scarlett moans]

[hisses]

-How are you doing? You okay? -Yeah, I'm fine. Why?

-Just asking. -[chuckles]

Just blowing off some steam. I'm not that into you.

-[laughs] -Okay. Well, that's good.

Phew.

I hope it's a clear day out there.

[screams] Shit! Shit! The sisters.

God damn it. They got us surrounded.

Okay. I mean, they can't get in. But we can't get out.

[tapping]

[tapping]

They're not going anywhere.

[tapping continues]

Son of a bitch. I'm open to suggestions if you've got any.

We're outnumbered. There's one exit.

We're just gonna have to hope the sun breaks.

[sighs] Just wait them out. Lucky for me, my schedule's clear.

[tapping continues]

[clicks]

No matter how many times I check this, it's still empty.

Oh, that's how it works, huh?

[tapping continues]

I swear to God, I'm gonna cut that bitch's fingers off and feed them to her.

-She's driving me crazy. -Sit down, save your strength.

How about you don't tell me what to do?

I'm just saying. We got no water, we got no food.

If we're gonna have to fight these things, I want you at your best.

Ugh. You're annoying.

Jesus Christ. Now what?

They're trying to smoke us out.

[scrapes]

[hissing]

[coughing]

I won't last long in here.

[coughing]

We have no choice.

[screeching]

[coughing]

No.

[coughing]

-Give me a sec. I've got an idea. -Hurry up.

[fire crackling]

[screeches]

You are strong. Even for a Van Helsing.

I'm just getting started.

[screeches]

[grunts]

-Join me. Become a sister. -No, thanks. I already have a sister.

[yelps]

[Axel grunting]

[hisses]

[yelps]

[screams]

Axel!

-No! Axel! -[crunches]

Scarlett!

[gasps]

Now the sisterhood is your only fate.

[cackles]

Never.

[growls]

-[gasping] -What have you done?

No! No!

[Ivory moaning]

-Please. -I won't let you become some pig human!

[grunts]

-[screams] -Come on. Let's finish this.

[screaming]

-Come on! -No, let her go!

[panting]

-That's new. -I think it happened when Vanessa bit me.

She saved my life.

-You sure you don't want any of these? -Positive.

Suit yourself.

Slow down. They're gonna make you sick. I'm beginning to sound like my mother.

This rate, we'll be in Crooked Falls before dark.

Think Scarlett and Axel are there?

I hope Scarlett and Axel are still alive.

[man screaming]

I know that scream.

-Scab. -Oh, shit!

[growls] The mighty Julius. [screams]

Not so mighty now.

No, stop. I got this.

[Doc] Julius!

Uh-uh.

You humans and your pathetic guns.

Wait. His death is mine to take.

[moans, growls]

You could have been my greatest warrior. But look at you now.

Just another human.

How's your sister doing? You guys still close?

[gasps]

Give it to me. And I will grant you a quick death.

[gasps] Argh! Okay. Okay, okay.

[laughs]

[grunts]

Let him go, you son of a bitch!

[yells]

[grunts]

[gagging, coughing]

I will take what is mine.

I will free the Elder.

His gratitude will bring me great rewards,

and his power will lead us to victory.

Oh, no!

Julius!

[screams] Julius!

[sobbing]

-We can take this one to feed from. -You try and I'll rip your eyes out!

[growls]

-Wait! -[gasps]

[panting] No.

No, please, no.

Beautiful.

But spoiled.

You have been turned by Vanessa. Pity.

[gasps]

-Your friend is dead. -No.

Shh, shh, shh...

Do not grieve. He was a monstrous being.

He wasn't your monster anymore. Vanessa made sure of that.

[spits]

[laughing]

Enough.

Go.

[gasping]

Tell the Van Helsing what has happened here. Do it now.

Go!

[Scab screams]

[Dad] All right, easy, watch your step. Are you okay? Scarlett?

I just killed someone and you're asking me if I'm okay.

Get that idea out of your head now.

He was a monster whose only purpose was to kill you, me, or anyone it crosses.

This is your purpose now, Scar. Understand?

But if he's dead, why do we have to do this?

Steal dead bodies? Burn the house down?

This creature found us. The others will, too.

-They won't stop until they get what they want.

-What they want is you. -But, I--

Until you're ready, we need to make them think that you're dead.

Okay? Just get in the truck.

-Where are we gonna go? -[Dad] Off the grid.

Continue your training, hope this day never comes again.

-Is this gonna work? -[Dad] It has to.

[engine starts]

[flame roars]

[sizzling]

[panting]

-Don't be scared, Scar. -I'm not scared. I'm sad. It's different.

Okay. One day, this will all make sense to you.

Really? You think so?

Maybe not. But you'll be ready.

Come on. Let's go. Come on!

When Vanessa woke up after those three years,

she had that same look on her face.

I just thought I had it all figured out.

Nothing would surprise me anymore.

If I had any of these abilities before she bit me...

if I was cut, I stayed cut.

You know what I remember?

I remember my dad telling me, "One day, this would all make sense."

It's like the more I know, the less it does.

[Axel sighs]

You sound like your sister.

We have to find her.

[sighing]

We'll find her if it kills me.
