Previously on Dominion.

The added stress of surgery caused a miscarriage.

- What did you do? - What I had to.

I'd been chosen.

These are my markings.

This is the fifth Amphora, Darkness.

It's one of the Archangels' weapons.

"And his kingdom was full of darkness.

"And they gnawed their tongues for pain."

If you unlock the Amphora, it'll wipe us all out, angels and humans.

I know.

No, you're absolutely right.

What was that?

Find out what's going on...

Sanders!

No!

Ahh!

Alex! Help!

Claire!

Get off me!

Claire, stop!

Noma, go!

Willow?

My baby.

My baby.

I thought I lost you.

It's okay.

It's okay. Mommy's here.

Mommy's here.

Let's go.

Please. Don't. Don't do this, please.

Anything you want, I can get it for you.

Please!

David Whele.

By order of the Lady of the City,

you have been sentenced to die.

Oh!

Do you have any last words?

Everything I did,

I did it for Vega.

Stay of execution has been granted.

David Whele.

Your presence has been requested.

What?

Please. What's happening?

Am I free? Has Claire pardoned me?

That's my sigil.

My Lord.

Hello, David.

Boo!

Alex, wait!

What the hell is this? It's the Amphora of Darkness.

It brings out the darkness inside you. It drives you mad with visions

to make you hurt yourself or someone else.

Some are nightmares, but some are dreams. Beautiful, but fatal.

All end in death.

Well, I'm not seeing anything, nightmares or dreams.

Well, neither am I. But angels can withstand its effects longer than humans.

Doesn't explain you, though.

I gotta find Claire.

No, no, the only way to help Claire

is to find the Amphora and close it.

No human can do it. Only an angel can reseal it.

It's close. I can sense it nearby.

I can feel it. Follow me.

Let's go.

Claire, what have you done to me?

Rose?

A female eight-ball.

This is exactly what we needed.

An eight-ball?

I'm not an eight-ball.

Claire, what is she talking about?

How does she know my name?

This one's smart. She learns fast.

I'm confident we can break her down,

train her for our purposes.

Train me?

You can't be serious.

You're dead. Claire, I shot her, I swear!

Calm yourself.

Or I'll remove your black eyes myself.

Rose.

This is too risky.

If we release her to seduce David Whele,

how do we know she won't kill him?

Or worse, us?

David needs to be branded a traitor.

It's the perfect plan.

Destroy him, or he'll destroy you.

Claire, you must listen to me.

Something is very wrong here.

Please.

Claire.

Claire!

Claire!

Listen to me!

Claire!

Well, if it isn't my dear old acolyte.

Been a long time, William.

Gabriel?

Are you the one that brought me here?

Where am I?

Don't you recognize it?

Oh!

The desert heat must have been brutal.

You took shelter here with your gun and its six little bullets.

Poor boy thought he had escaped.

Welcome back.

I don't know what you're talking about.

And I'm not afraid of you.

That so?

This tough exterior of yours, just a facade.

I know the real you.

Sniveling coward that served me all those years.

No,I...

I'm... I'm not the same William anymore.

I was chosen by God.

Our Father.

Come, now. It's embarrassing.

You? The Chosen One?

I am the Chosen One.

I... I have the scars to prove it.

Gabriel, I was tested in the desert,

and I was saved by the grace of God.

When everyone else deserted me,

he never did.

God is gone!

He left you, too.

You're not the Chosen One.

You're a reject!

Gabriel!

My scar.

We'll need to search all the floors.

How the hell did the Amphora get inside the city?

I don't know.

But, obviously, Julian must have found it in New Delphi.

Quit it.

I'm not seeing any visions, or whatever.

But you're human. You should've been affected by now.

Perhaps he won't be.

The Amphora brings out the darkness within,

but Alex is the last pure heart.

Meaning?

Maybe there's no darkness inside you.

Help me.

The Amphora's designed to preserve itself.

It'll choose a victim to protect it.

But we need to hurry.

He may not succumb, but you and I will.

There's nothing there.

Noma.

We need to split up. I'll search up here.

I'll take this floor.

Noma. Noma!

Huh?

Are you all right?

'Course I am.

Hush little baby,

Don't say a word

Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird don't sing,

Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring

Yes.

Yes. How are my girls?

Come here.

Hard to believe...

...this is our life sometimes, isn't it?

You have no idea.

Alex?

What is it?

You can't see that?

See what?

Damn it. There's nothing in there, either.

What is it?

Nothing.

Come on, we need to find the Amphora. End this thing.

Alex?

We should split up. No!

We already split from Michael. It's too dangerous.

We need to stick together. I'm a soldier.

I can handle myself.

I'll be fine. I swear.

Okay. Just be careful.

Yeah.

What is this? Is this some kind of a trick?

You're...

Me.

Well, now you're just stating the obvious.

It's time you and I had a little conversation about our destiny.

"Our" destiny?

These are dark times, David.

And they grow darker. But there's a bright future ahead of you.

Or, there can be. It's up to you.

You could be Lord of the City.

You play your cards right,

you can have one of these, too.

No. No.

Look at you!

You're not a lord, you're an eight-ball.

Hey, I'm a survivor.

The end of the day, that's all that matters.

But you...

You're holding me back.

What do you want from me?

Let it go. Embrace who you've become.

Renounce your humanity,

or whatever you call it.

Or I become a monster like you?

Bow down to the angels.

Never.

You can take my life, but my soul is my own.

Something you will never understand.

Souls, David?

Really?

Don't touch those.

Each of these items represents

the soul of a man or a woman you destroyed

on your way to power.

And you kept them in a trophy case.

Let's be honest, David.

You've been a monster like me

longer than you like to admit.

You'll be ready soon. No.

I know how this ends. You're going to kill me.

Still stubborn, I see.

Maybe this will help.

That's private.

Where did you get that?

They have a strange desire for certain items.

Who is she?

Arika's mother. You remind me of her.

That's mine. Give it back!

Claire.

It's the only picture I have of her.

Please.

I don't want people to see her that way.

Claire, please.

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

That's because you are.

Now, are you ready to obey?

Uh-huh.

Michael.

Michael.

No!

Oops.

Noma.

What have you done?

I'm ending this war.

Something I should've done 25 years ago.

Alex had to die.

Father's markings are gone forever.

Now, so is he. It's over, Michael.

You failed.

You hear that, Michael?

It's the end. The death of all God's creations.

Noma.

No. No.

Ahh!

I've missed you, baby.

Claire! What happened to you?

That's no way to talk to your wife.

What's wrong?

Don't you think I'm pretty anymore?

No, that's not what I meant...

Because I want you, William.

This is another test from God. For me.

You actually believe that shit?

Well, I have news for you.

You're a false prophet.

You're wrong.

I've transformed, changed.

Shh!

Stop.

That "blinding flash of light"

that saved you from the thieves?

That wasn't a gift from God.

That was the thief's gun backfiring on him.

Mmm.

It killed him.

Dead. Dead. Dead.

While you...

You were cowering in the corner.

My William.

That's not true. I heard the voice of God.

And he guided... Ahhh!

That was your voice.

You were talking to yourself.

Hmm?

See all this?

This is what really happened.

You were prisoner to a pack of eight-balls.

They fed you rats.

They did...

Unspeakable things to you.

And it was fun.

No miracles.

Just you

and your stupid mind

justifying the disgusting things that happened to you.

Oh, I see you've missed me too, William.

But you're no Chosen One. No.

You're nothing.

You're delusional, weak.

You always were.

Who could ever love you?

I don't need you.

I don't need anyone.

God has greater plans for my life.

Haven't you been listening to me?

Hmm?

It's just you and me.

But these...

These are beautiful.

No.

No!

Yes.

You're safe now.

Do we have any reason to fear you?

No.

She's ready.

Why are you doing this to me?

Do you wanna see this again?

Try to run,

and I'll burn it.

Good girl.

Your mother was a lunatic.

She was diagnosed as bipolar when you were very young.

She saw things that weren't there. She needed help.

But she didn't want it. She hurt you.

She didn't know what she was doing.

You thought she was a monster.

No. I loved my mother.

You're afraid of her.

Afraid of becoming her.

Now, recite your lines.

No!

I said, recite your lines.

"I don't want to fight anymore, David.

"Don't treat me like this."

Good.

You're ready.

Now, strip.

Good.

Very good.

I'm offering you everything you've ever wanted.

Yes.

Lord of the City. But not like this.

You're inhuman. So are you.

You killed innocents.

You tried to assassinate Claire. You conned Zoe into a war.

You left your own son in the desert to die.

I had to.

Those things I did in order to survive.

Let's be blood brothers.

I was a husband. A father.

I had a family! I loved them dearly. I lost it all!

Tell me, how does that make me inhuman?

Yes, you loved them.

And when they were taken, it changed you!

David.

Help us, Daddy.

Charles?

Peggy!

Eleanor!

Love is a liability. A distraction.

It's what's been holding you back.

That's why you pushed William away. No.

It was his crying that led them to where we were hiding!

It was his fault that they died!

Now, was it?

Ahhh!

The war was the best thing that ever happened to you,

because it made you the man you were meant to be.

Me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hey, hey. Whoa, whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa. It's me. It's me.

Dammit, you scared me.

I'm sorry.

Did you find it?

Nothing.

You? Nothing.

How do I know I can believe you?

Guess you're just gonna have to trust me.

You love your daddy, huh?

She can't stop watching you.

Such a good girl.

You hungry? Maybe Daddy can get you something.

I'll get a bottle.

Hi.

Is Daddy gonna feed you, huh?

What is it? Is it too hot?

No, it's... It's nothing.

Alex, where'd the crib go?

What crib?

We have to get out of here.

You have to trust me.

We have... We have to get out of here. Now.

Alex, listen to me! We have to get...

I'm seeing...

Just... Just wait.

It's okay.

It's okay, sweetie.

Alex, I need...

Alex?

Alex?

Willow?

Alex?

Where's Willow?

No, no!

Wait, where you going?

Outside. Come on.

But I thought you said you could sense the Amphora in here.

Maybe I was wrong.

Put it down.

What are you doing? Something's wrong with you.

Something's off.

Get away from him!

I trusted you.

That day you said you'd protect him with your life,

but you've been waiting for a chance to kill him, haven't you?

No! Archangel, no. I promise you.

Lies! I know what's in your heart.

Back up, Michael! You don't know what you're saying.

It's the darkness talking.

You don't know her, Alex. She's hiding something.

Get back! You can't have it!

Wait, what are you talking about?

The Amphora. She has the Amphora.

Stay here.

I think I know where she hid it.

Alex. Alex, get back here!

Alex, stop!

Tell me the truth, Michael.

Alex... All you care about

are my markings. I don't mean anything to you.

Is it true? No, of course not.

These are all you care about!

Only at first.

You were just a tiny infant.

How could so helpless a creature bring my father back?

So, for a time, yes.

The markings were all I cared for.

But as the boy who would carry them grew,

I saw that he was good,

and kind and brave.

No father could be prouder of any son.

It's not enough, Michael.

Oh!

What are you holding on to, David?

There's no one left to fight for except yourself.

Survive.

Your humanity is hanging by a thread.

Cut it.

Bow down to me.

All...

Horrible things I've done.

You were right.

About me.

About everything.

Very good.

Get up.

Alex? What are you doing here?

You've been spreading lies, William.

What lies?

Tell me. Who am I?

You're... You're Alex.

Who am I?

Who am I, William? I don't know why you're doing this.

Yeah. There's an easy answer.

You see these? These are my markings.

So, let me ask you again.

Who am I?

Don't make me say it.

Who am I?

You're the Chosen One.

Who am I?

You're the Chosen One!

That's right.

And you're not.

Your scars are just...

Deformities.

They mean nothing.

You mean nothing.

Your marriage to Claire means nothing.

No. No.

My markings.

My markings are gone.

You know what to do.

I don't want to fight anymore, David.

Hello? David?

Seducing David was never the mission, Arika.

Killing you was.

No. Please.

Don't do this.

Look at you. Helpless.

Crazy.

Like mother, like daughter.

No. I'm not her.

Please.

I... I did everything you asked of me.

Have mercy.

You never showed me mercy.

So why should I?

Get on your knees.

Rose, what I did, killing you...

It was wrong.

I am so sorry.

Please forgive me.

Forgive me.

Stop.

Help me!

Nomes?

Stop! Don't come any closer. Get back!

Okay. Okay.

You need to close the Amphora. It lies.

Whatever it's telling you, it's not real.

They are real. I can see them.

I won't let you take them away again.

Take what away?

Noma.

Get back!

Noma, you're gonna fall.

I won't. I can fly.

You can't. It's the darkness.

It's tricking you.

Your wings aren't back.

Get back.

Or I'll fly away with it.

If you jump, you'll die.

I gave them up once.

I did it for you, Alex.

I won't do it again.

I need them to go home again.

How else will I fly back to Heaven?

They're a part of me.

And you're a part of me.

Please, don't do this.

I need you.

You're my Nomes. Forever.

I need you.

Now come to me.

Alex?

Alex...

I got you.

I'm here. I'm here.

I got you.

Noma, I can't close this.

And Michael is too far gone.

You can do this, Noma.

Alex, get away from her! Michael, no!

Stop! Stop!

It's the darkness.

Stop! Stop!

Michael!

Michael, no!

Get back, Alex! She wants you dead.

Michael, please, it's not real!

It's the darkness, it's not real! None of it's real!

We need to close the Amphora.

I should have done this long ago.

Get on your knees.

How did you do that?

No.

I'm so sorry.

Your wings,

I'm so sorry.

The unknown distance to the great beyond

Stares back At my grieving frame

To cast my shadow

By the holy sun

My spirit moans

With a sacred pain

And it's quiet now

What have I done?

The universe is standing still

There's nothing I can say

There's nothing we can do now

There's nothing I can say

There's nothing we can do now

And all that stands between the soul's release

This temporary

Flesh and bone

We know that it's over now

I feel my faded mind begin to roam

Every time you fall

And every time you try

Every foolish dream

And every compromise

Every word you spoke

And everything you said

Everything you left me

Rambles in my head

And there's nothing I can say

Nothing I can say

There's nothing I can do now

There's nothing I can say

Nothing I can say

There's nothing I can do now

Up above

The world so high

I will kill them.

I will kill them all.

And everything you loved

And every time you try

I'm sorry. No.

Don't be sorry.

All that you've given me,

thank you, Nomes.

The stars can wait for your sign

Don't signal now

And there's nothing I can say

The Amphora of Darkness has served my kind for an eternity.

But now I realize it should have been destroyed long ago.

We need to find out who survived.

Come on.

Be careful. Whoever did this will still be near.

Well. That was rather quick.

No matter.

It's time.
