Original subtitles

They arrested Beeloff. I can fix this. Julia, Jake thinks Sarah might have

cursed him. What if we use that notion to our advantage?

Witch curser!

Witchcraft! Heavenly Father, purge this curse! I'm going to cast the spell to

bring everyone back to their senses.

I can't do it without you. Maybe it's not such a terrible idea for me to take

break from the coffin.

This is an act of colossal self -harm, and I don't want to be part of it.

Where is it?

Shh.

Be quiet.

Wow.

Can I see it?

My mum said no one can.

This book is dangerous.

um

What have you found there?

Oh, God, what is that?

Go, go, go.

Hey, I got your message.

What's so important that we couldn't talk about over the phone?

Something happened.

I'm scared.

Everyone said that you killed him and that you could go to prison.

A word.

I know.

So I was thinking maybe... Maybe I should say it was me.

That you'd be in the clear.

Plus, I'm not a witch, so there would be no death penalty.

You're my best friend. I'm not going to sit by and watch you get blamed for

something that you didn't do. Nobody did anything.

Dan tripped and broke his neck.

Okay?

Okay.

Thank you, Ted.

I hope this doesn't cause you any problems with DCI Knight.

I'm in charge here.

You just take care of yourself.

Yeah, thank you.

You're letting Bea Garston and Freddie McConaughey go.

Attempted murder not serious enough for you. Well, you can bring them back at

any point.

But don't you think your priority should be the actual murder case?

How's Jake doing?

He'll be fine.

Now, Mike, why hold him false? For the sooner you arrest the witch that put him

there, and just so you know.

All my guys are off the case.

You're on your own, Detective.

Just so you know, some of the staff have been gossiping. Thanks for telling me.

We'll talk about it later on, OK?

So, the water's out.

The unabridged tape.

Without Dan here, who's in line to take the flak?

Us. Professor.

What do we do?

Build on what you've done. Keep the focus on Sarah.

Well, she cursed Jack, didn't she?

The sicker he gets, the worse she looks.

We're not in control of how sick he is.

What did you do?

Changes meds added a few side effects.

But if you get found out... I'm a professor of virology, Abby. The doctor

specifically asked me to take him a treatment.

Who's going to challenge me?

But you'll just make him look worse.

You won't actually... Leave me to deal with this.

Okay?

With the magic, no.

I wasn't going to let you die by the hillside, was I?

It's not going to work.

No, I failed.

I need to try something.

I think you need to rest.

No, I can't give up.

I wanted to let you know that new evidence has come to light which

your daughter's rape allegation. Obviously, I've spoken to Harper, but

if you'd like to speak further.

Oh, thank goodness.

Oh, Harper.

I have no idea where she is.

You know what?

Forget Hansel parenting.

I need to see her.

Sure, but how?

Locate the spell.

Wait, what? That's actually a thing?

Mm -hmm.

Okay, but I'm staying.

Just in case you blow yourself up a little.

Are you okay?

The locator's stuck.

It's not working.

Can you just... Don't hit the candle.

I need to try something really basic.

It could happen. I knew it, but I... I didn't want to believe.

Maybe... Maybe you're still in shock.

But you saw that. You saw what I couldn't do.

Vivi, do you need to see me?

Then go.

OK. I'll be back.

Are you sure?

How's he doing?

Not good.

His fever's up.

Breathing's bad.

He's delirious.

Dad.

Dad.

What's wrong?

We're... We're... Dad.

Can you help him?

We're doing all we can.

The problem is that...

Even science is at a disadvantage when the other forces are at play.

What would appear to be a typical case of glandular fever is now developed into

something more sinister.

I'm getting reports of further cases.

Oh, God!

What's happening?

Are we all cursed?

Well, that's not for me to say.

What happened? What is it? Why are you so scared?

Something you don't know.

Obviously I'm not here.

I'll say that.

But just to be clear, you're actively disobeying orders.

And if Ted finds out?

The end of my glittering career.

You're absolutely sure about this?

Found something. I thought you should see it.

So I've kept tracking the kids' social medias, especially the Dan Whitehall

tribute pages, in case anything new showed up. And today, this came in.

It is that looking to you.

Izzy Patterson? Izzy Patterson, who was ill in bed at home and no -one named her

as being there.

Well, I guess it's not unheard of.

Kid sneaks out and wants to be at a party where all her mates are at.

Yeah, but notice where she's heading.

OK.

Look at the timecode on the picture.

Less than a minute before the time of Daniel's fall.

Good work.

Izzy, go to bed.

You should never have gone out this morning.

I'm fine.

Seriously. If that fever kicks in again, you're in trouble.

You know, two of my girls in work have the same thing. Oh, God, the same, that

it's, you know... They think that it's witchcraft, which is insane.

Dr Clarke has said it's glandular fever.

I mean, what if these stories take hold?

I mean, there's Coburn, she's my best friend.

Either people cancel on me, people are ghosting me.

I mean, what if they think that I'm somehow involved?

And now Izzy's poorly again.

It's actually her I wanted to see.

Look, just wanted to check a couple of details, if that's okay. Oh, yeah.

I think she was here a minute ago, doodling away.

Do you know, I'm going to see if she's up for talking.

Thanks.

Izzy?

She's gone.

Why don't you just go and check?

So now we know Izzy was at the party.

What concerns me... is this.

That thing at the warehouse.

Right.

So why is Izzy making drawings of it?

And if she was at the party and claiming not to be?

I need to talk to someone who understands these symbols.

Everything okay with Izzy?

She was upset, but we talked it through.

She's fine.

What about you?

Definitely lost my magic.

But it will come back.

I don't know.

What if it doesn't?

If I'm not a witch, what do I call myself?

How do I earn a living?

My whole life, my heritage, it's been about helping people.

Sarah.

You... Who you are is not just about spells and potions.

That stuff is just a tiny part of what makes you amazing.

At least to me.

Not you. You're a mate.

You're biased, but I don't need amazing.

I just need power.

Enough to protect Harper from what's coming down the line.

Serafina.

She'd be horrified.

After everything she taught me.

My amulet.

When was the last time you saw it?

The sun's down right.

How's Jake?

Exactly where he needs to be.

Michael, promise me you won't go too far.

I feel so sorry for him. He was besotted with Dan.

And Dan despised him.

Don't. Dan wasn't like Dan.

He was sweet and kind and thoughtful and loving.

But something happened to him.

God.

That's it.

What she did to him.

Don't do anything else.

Put the word out. Get everyone to the square for midday.

Good luck with that.

Quite a few people showed virus symptoms after the last gathering.

Even better.

I can use that. Do what?

Turn this whole thing on its head.

So the amulet.

Could it help restore your powers?

Maybe. Maybe not.

But it's a gift from Serafina.

I have to find it.

I'll help.

Just drop me there. I don't want anyone else mixed up in this.

Thanks for agreeing to see us again, Professor Maloney.

Can I show you something?

Sure.

These were drawn by Harper's best friend.

Are you able to tell us what they are?

So you know them?

They're known as the Old Signs.

They come from a book of spells called the Star -Cross Grimoire.

It's over three centuries old.

And banned.

Banned?

Why?

Because a book of that power...

In the wrong hands.

So, this sign, for instance, what's that mean?

Why do you ask?

Because we've seen it somewhere before.

Going live in 5, 4, 3, 2...

Discovered here in the early hours this morning by a local dog walker, branches

hung with red wool and crystals. The ground beneath is covered in blood and

sinister markings have been etched into the rocks and the soil.

Locals are claiming that the mystery virus currently plaguing the town is

connected to this site and are strongly suggesting that dark magic is at play.

Another site has also been discovered at Ethan's Rock.

So we know that Isabel Patterson has been sketching signs from this book,

Starcross. which matched the very sign we saw at the warehouse, at the place

where someone died.

My question is, could Izzy have witch ancestry?

Witch genes lying dormant that resurfaced in her.

Yeah, if the last witch was four, five generations back, family today might not

know its magical heritage.

How did Izzy learn these symbols from Starcross? I mean, the obvious question

is...

Those seraphim deserve to copy.

Hello?

Say Sarah had the copy.

Could she have secretly tutored Izzy?

Never. These signs are extremely dangerous.

No one would teach them to a child.

Clarify extremely dangerous.

What's this, for instance?

This is connected to ideas of concealment.

And this?

That suggests...

Mayhem. Ruin.

So if Izzy cast that at the warehouse... It would account for the fire, but

that's assuming she was capable.

And if Sarah didn't teach her?

Could she have taught herself?

Could Harper have given her access to the book without realising how

dangerous it could be? Do you mind?

That sign, I can't look at it.

It's the sigil most witches dread having to use.

What does it mean?

Destruction.

Do you know what this is about?

No, not a clue.

Happy's ignoring my calls.

Are you all right?

Sure, apart from the fact that my daughter hates me.

My husband's looking for an exit, and I've let down one of my closest friends.

And I haven't.

Sarah asked for my help on something that really mattered.

And I sent her away.

To what now?

Not another vigil.

For Dan.

You bet it's for Dan.

And for every decent member of this community.

I mean, you can't be blind to what's going on.

Please, enlighten me.

Witch crime?

Illegal magic.

People's lives devastated.

No, please, Julius. It's okay.

You really are under a spell, huh?

Is that what Abby taught you to say?

You've always been obsessed with that witch bitch.

And you've always been a philandering prick.

She did you a favor.

What do you want? Are you mine?

Oh, my God.

Stop. Please.

Stop, please.

Yeah.

That was three.

Okay, not the time. Not the time.

Come on, Abigail.

We're all with you.

We're all with you.

We're all with you.

Many of you will have seen the TV reports.

Evidence of dark magic being used at various sites around the century.

Coincidence? No.

No. It's just that a mysterious virus spreads amongst us.

Three of my men.

Three of my men, four of Dan's teammates are in hospital.

My son, JK, he's really struggling.

I used to think magic was benign. I've consulted therapy myself.

I've had my issues with alcohol.

I admit that I'm human.

I trusted her.

She used my weakness against me.

She tried blackmailing me and getting our Jake into retracting statement.

And when I refused, she put a curse on him.

Now he's struggling to breathe.

He's delirious.

And I don't know what to do.

in my consulting room.

Why?

Abby's called a meeting in the square.

Don't know why, but I wouldn't hang around.

Go home, throw some clothes in my bag, and I'll be around in 15.

We need to get you somewhere safe.

I'm sure you've all heard the allegation Harper Fenn made on TV about my son

Daniel.

It's the most appalling thing a mother can hear.

So you probably think I'm going to stand here and deny it.

Well, I'm not going to.

Because it's true. Oh my God.

She missed it. For six years, I've kept a terrible secret.

And I want to share it now because I see how wrong I've been.

How false loyalty led me to protect a criminal.

And cause irreparable damage to my son and to others.

I was once a non -magical member of Seraphine's colony.

I let myself be persuaded.

to partake in an illegal spell which called upon dark, forbidden magic to do

unspeakable thing.

There are others here today who took part in that spell.

And others, including my husband, who witnessed it in all its

monstrosity.

Six years ago, my son Daniel fell from an upstairs window.

He broke his neck and died.

In my grief, I was beyond all reason.

Sarah then saw my pain, and instead of comforting me, she asked me if

she could resurrect him.

What would you have done?

In that moment, I would have done anything.

And so I agreed to participate, to let Sarah Fenn perform her darkest piece of

sorcery.

At the end of the ritual, he opened his eyes, and my darling boy came back to

life.

Back, but different.

He looked the same, but every now and again, something took hold of him.

A darkness, a need to hurt, and every time he'd come to me and weep and ask

was wrong with him and how he could make it stop.

Fuck, she's clever.

I couldn't tell him what I'd done.

I couldn't admit that in my weakness I'd allowed Sarah Fenn to inflict dark,

forbidden magic, which turned my sweet, loving child...

Into an abusive predator at the mercy of vile urges he couldn't control.

For which he was not responsible.

Witchcraft.

To be honest, we don't really care that Dan was the witch.

We just care about what he did.

He assaulted her.

Loads of us.

And we're not going to let that drop. Let me stop you right there. We've all

made statements to the police.

There's going to be an investigation.

You heard.

This isn't going away. So now we've got to really turn up the heat. Because

otherwise we're fucking skewered.

Are we then?

Abigail, what are you not seeing? This is a straight toss -up between Dan and

Jake.

Which of them matters to you most?

Okay.

Sarah!

We have to go now.

DCI and I are going in touch.

She's got somewhere safe you can go.

Ryan, meet me at mine ASAP.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

Grab that bloody people if you can!

What? Something happened?

Professor Whitehall wants you to come in urgently. Right.

I'm on my way.

You should be okay here

for now.

But I suggest you think about getting away from Sanctuary.

I intend to.

And I'll be taking Harper with me.

You can't be at the mercy of these insane people.

Especially Abigail.

The grief.

It deranged her.

At the gathering, she was ranting on about her resurrected kid.

That's impossible, right?

Wait a minute.

Would someone like to explain what happened? We heard something fall, ran

inside, and Dan was at the bottom of the stairs.

Not moving. I just screamed.

Then very quickly, he came to.

Sat up, started talking.

Any injuries?

I checked him over, but no.

Not even a bruise.

He was actually dead?

Yeah.

Sarah, don't. He had no pulse.

But that can happen.

People do get revived.

I did a spell.

I did it because Abby begged me.

Does that...

Happen often.

You performing illegal spells because your friends beg you to.

Oh, but right.

I'm too soft.

I can't bear to see them suffer, so... I bend the rules.

And everything that's happened, maybe I asked for it.

Because I did break the law.

I resurrected a boy who was dead, and Abigail has every right to hate me

of the process.

It must... have damaged him and turned him into the monster who raped my

daughter, and that's down to me. No, no, no.

Your spell didn't change him.

He was always like that.

This morning, Izzy told me.

Daniel, he... he hurt him.

When?

The day he fell.

Before he fell, he came into Izzy's room and...

started touching her she tried to push him away and then the struggle the

was open he fell out is

that a copy of the star -crossed grimoire

may i see it

Is this something Izzy could have ever seen?

Izzy?

Did Harper know where it was kept?

Yeah, but she knew not to touch it.

Ryan, can I have a word?

Thank you.

You're okay. Come here.

You're all right.

Mike, how is this? Sorry, we're doing all we can, but he seems to be getting

worse.

Hey, Jacob.

Is that there? Your mum?

Thank you, little man.

Jacob, don't leave us. We love you. Stay with us.

No!

No!

Crash call, please. Can you help me? Crash call.

Save us, Don.

We're going to have to clear the room.

No.

No.

No.

No.

Clear the room.

Save us, Don.

I really wish I hadn't heard all that.

Because Izzy's given herself another motive to kill Dan.

Not only the rape of her best friend.

But her own assault when she was a kid.

Sarah's basically admitted Izzy had access to Starcross.

And the symbols in her notebook.

Concealment. Destruction.

There's no disputing the intent.

She was at the warehouse.

Is it over?

Yeah. Oh, God.

It had to be done.

Did it?

Nail it once and for all.

If Sarah used dark magic to resurrect her best friend's son, she'll go to

and be banned from using magic for life.

And if Izzy Patterson used dark magic to kill the boy who abused her and

raped her best friend, she'll face the death penalty.

But what if magic wasn't used at all?

But it was.

Morgan confirmed it. But, just suppose, what if Morgan was willing to set aside

that part of the evidence?

That'd be negligent and highly illegal.

But they might argue that if it came down to saving a naive kid, self

untreated in witchcraft, possibly ignorant of the darkness they'd

maybe they'd ask if there's such a thing as natural justice.

And do we want to serve that?

Or do we want to serve a law that is actively biased against witches?

Get

the

car, bring it round the back.

We need to go now. We've been followed.

What about Arthur? I know where I can find her.

You go with the CIA. I'll try and hit them off.

Go, go.

Leave her. We'll go to the witch.

How long have you known?

What half has been hanging out?

Not long.

I kind of assumed you knew.

I guess we have more pressing concerns.

Like trying not to get arrested.

Remy? Do you have the fans in custody?

I have Sarah with me, and we're on our way to collect... Fetch them in

immediately.

Tell me about it.

Thanks to Abigail Whitehall whipping up hysteria. I doubt hysterias would kill

Jacob Bolt.

Jake's dead.

So you never even are?

No.

Is that weird?

I've got his DNA and I don't even know his name.

Does your mum know?

I should have mentioned to them.

Maybe one day I'll ask.

Sarah is being blamed for the outbreak of this virus and

Jake's death.

That has nothing to do with witchcraft.

There she is.

You need to understand what's at play here.

Pure hysteria.

Harper?

Good luck.

Thanks.

Ted Bolt's requested to come in and de -escalate the situation.

His son has just died.

Do you really think... He's made the case.

It's his manner. His guys are sticking by him. So what I need is for you to

bring the fans in.

And what I need is for you to back me.

Bring the...

We have to leave.

Right now. Why? What happened?

I saw the stuff on the news. No, it's gone way beyond that.

Jake Bolt just died, and they're blaming me.

What? And if we don't get out now, we might not survive. So I need you to

me to make decisions for both of us.

With or without magic.

Why without magic?

I tried a spell. It didn't work out, and I... I lost my...

It happened. It's hideous and I can't think about it now. We just need to

Okay, wait.

No, no, Hopper, we have no time. Close your eyes.

What? Close them.

I found that at your spell flight.

Get down.

Take your hand off my daughter.

Bring him in. Have you lost your mind?

What the fuck was that?

They're not even under arrest. They've been taken to a safe house.

If you had arrested those witches weeks ago,

my son would still be alive.

What's happening?

What should have happened a long time ago.

A reckoning.

This town needs cleansing.

Evil has been festering in our midst.

I swear your mother will pay.

You've become a monster.

Does anyone here still doubt their guilt?

And if you accept their guilt, what sentence do you pass?
