All language subtitles for Defiance (2013) - S01E11 - Past Is Prologue (1080p BluRay x265 Celdra)

Previously onDefiance...

First we need
to secure his marriage.

If they're against us,
we'll never be able to

take control of
the McCawley Mines.

I'm thinking
about our son's future.

Want to come back
to my place later?

What's at your place?

Me.

No.

Come back and work with me.
I can't do this alone.

No, thanks. I'm not interested.

You're sure about that?

I've finally gotten my hands
on one of the artifacts.

Yeah!

You'll never please
your bride with that
shriveled worm of yours.

Your mother
didn't seem to mind.

Who's next?

Well, look at you.

You ain't worthy of
Christie McCawley.

Yes, he is!

Whoo!

Defend my honor, Alak.

Kick his ass.

Oh!

On the eve of your wedding,
you've defeated
your savage brothers.

Now, it's time to taste
the fruits of your victory.

I'm ready for you, husband.

Hi, boys.

Ooh!

Seeming is being.

Claim your wife.

Oh, another round, Jered!
Koni shots for everyone!

Casti bums.

Not until we get to see you
pony-mount your bride, huh?

Yeah!

Uh, ritual coitus is
so old school. It's 2046.

What? Are you
saying no to your bride?

Are you?

The thing is,
Tirra, my real bride

would probably have
a problem with this.

Come on,
man, nobody's gonna know.

Let it go, Kupak.

I guess that's what happens
when you hook up with a human?

Pink meat makes
your JON-du-rago soft.

Hey!

Is that a hand?

What is it?

Awesome.

Holy shtako.

Fa-vi Tarr.

Christie.

You are a vision.

It's all because of Kenya.
She made this dress.

She does have
an amazing touch.

Well,
it's only been worn once,

and it looks
much better on you
than it ever did on me.

Kenya, I'm sure you
were a stunning bride.

In another lifetime.

I'll see you both tomorrow.

Christie.

In human tradition,

I understand
the mother of the bride

gives her daughter
something borrowed
to wear during the ceremony.

As your mother's not with us,

I thought I would give you
something I wore
at my wedding.

When we boarded the Ark,
we were only allowed
to bring three items.

I took my family gem,
my diary, and this.

It's called a telo.

How do I wear it?

I'll show you.

My mother wore it
and her mother before that.

You know, the human phrase
"daughter-in-law" is
so cold, so distant.

Our word, "hanya tavo,"
means "heart daughter."

You are my hanya tavo,
Christie.

Um,

I can't see anything.

You're not supposed to.

In Castithan tradition,
the bride is blind

until her betrothed opens
her eyes at the end
of the ceremony.

I'll never forget the moment
my hand-maidens lifted my telo.

At first, the light
was so bright...

But then, after a moment,

he came into focus,
my new husband.

It was magical.

It's beautiful.

I'm looking forward to
this wedding tonight.

This town needs a party.

Weddings are stupid.

Okay.

See, most people, Irisa,
they don't do
everything alone.

They think life's more
meaningful with someone
at their side.

Some even like to
celebrate this idea
with friends and family.

You're going, right?

Hmm...

You're going.
You're gonna be my date.

I don't date.

Why not?

I'm from the Badlands.

You see, when I
first came to Defiance,

I was nothing
but a card hustler
who couldn't read or write,

never thought I'd
amount to anything.

And now I'm wearing a badge.

People change.

You're an idiot.

So are you.

The wound's triangular.

A paperweight?

Possibly.

Whatever it was,

our John Doe took one
pretty hard to the coconut.

Well, that's one
helluva big damn rock.

Obviously
robbery wasn't a motive.

I've seen
that ring before.

This is no John Doe.
His name is Hunter Bell.

Who's that?

He owned the NeedWant
back when it was
just a hotel and bar.

Slow down, hot-shot.

Nobody cheats in my
establishment but me.

I'm not cheating.

Let's cut the punk open
and see what spills out.

Back off, Datak. I got this.

Kenya! Bring these
gentlemen a free round.

Let's go.

What are you thinking,
trying to hustle
at my poker table?

I'm thinking, "Damn,
I'm gonna get rich
off these Casti punks."

Well, they're crap players,
you got that right.

You gonna cut me?

First lesson's free.

So is this one.

You're not as
slick with the cards
as you think.

Come with me.

Hey, Lawkeeper. Clancy!

Hey, Hunter.
Who's the kid?

My friend here
just got off
the truck from Yosemite.

He needs a bed and a job.

Does he mind
scrubbing toilets?

Oh, he can't get enough of it.

So you and
this guy were close?

Not exactly,
but he helped me.

I owed him.

When did he go missing?

About seven years ago,
give or take.

I'd only been on
the job three days
when I caught my first case.

My husband's missing.

Hunter had
a lot of enemies.

And most people
figured he'd blown town.

Except me.

I found one drop
of blood, and that's it.

If it was murder,
why isn't there more blood?

Somebody cleaned the floor.

They missed a drop.

Yeah.

Look, Hunter was a...
He owed money.

He got into a fight
and lost a little blood,

and he hightailed
it out of Defiance.

No, look.

Okay, I've never owned a home,
never owned a business.

But, in this day and age,

a man doesn't simply walk away
from their accomplishments.

You're right.

Yeah. Not a man like Hunter.

I think someone killed him.

Turns out I was right.

We've been in town,
what, four months?

Never heard Kenya
mention a missing husband.

How do you know it's Hunter?

I'm sorry.

Hunter owned the NeedWant.

When he was gone,
you took over, right?

It was in his will,
which is the same answer

that I gave you
seven years ago.

Tommy,
you wanna give us a minute?

People thought
that he ran off.

I knew that he
wouldn't do that.

You guys had a good thing?

Stop!

I miss him a lot.

I feel weird
officiating this wedding.

Well,
Rafe asked you personally.

Yeah, but that was before
Datak was my opponent.

The whole town
will see you standing up there

looking authoritative
and elegant.

It's good politics.

You know, Datak's
putting all his resources
into this campaign.

Should I be worried?

Now, listen.

You have a very
strong track record
and my endorsement.

If Datak's going to beat you,

he's going to need
a lot more ammunition
than he's got right now.

Madame Mayor.

Oh, Nolan. Tommy.

You boys excited
about the wedding?

I hope you're both going to
save a dance for me.

Yes, ma'am.

We found
Hunter Bell's corpse.

Oh, my God. Where was it?

He'd been murdered, body
stashed in a hollow wall
in the NeedWant.

What is this?

I thought you said he stopped.

This is just something
I got caught in a drawer.

Here's to you, my big sister,
the new assistant mayor.

Hunter's never going to stop.

Someday,
you're gonna be
running this town.

He's never going to change.

Hunter sees something in me
that no one else does.

Oh, stop being so stupid! Hunter loves me...

He's going to kill you!

Look at the choices
that you make with your life.

Look what you did to Connor,
look what you did
to your own baby.

You don't even want to
let anybody into your life.

I have someone
in my life. You.

And I'm not gonna
let anyone hurt you.

I think I'm old enough
to look after myself.

No, you can't, Kenya.

And if it comes to it,

I will do whatever
it takes to make sure

he never lays
a hand on you again.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Mayor Nicky, I'm gonna
have to ask Mayor
Rosewater some questions.

Yes, of course.

I'm really
sorry about Mr. Bell.

Hunter Bell was your
brother-in-law, right?

Yes.

You would have
known him pretty well.
What was he like?

Charming, rich, handsome.

Maybe a little bit dangerous?

He was a bully.

Did he, uh...

Did he bully your sister?

No.

He loved her. She loved him.
She was devastated
when he disappeared.

They're lying. Both of them.

Maybe.

You know,
I think that Hunter
was beating on Kenya,

and Amanda could've killed him
to protect her sister.

Or Kenya killed him
and Amanda's
lying to protect her.

Hmm. So what're you
gonna do about it?

I'm gonna go home,
put on some fresh clothes
and go to a wedding.

Nolan, a man was killed.

A bad man. A long time ago.

You're gonna try to
bury this, aren't you?

It's my job to keep the peace,

not run around
like Sherlock Holmes
chasing old ghosts.

And what about justice?

Make sure you
wear a tie tonight.

My daughter is not
wearing this hockey mask
at her wedding.

This is an heirloom.
Show some respect.

She'll be able to see
when she's
walking down the aisle

and folks will be
able to see her.

A Castithan
wedding isn't a wedding

if the bride
doesn't wear her telo.

I'm the one footing
the bill for this thing.

Christie wears
what I say she wears.

Oh, you humans believe
you're so superior.

The truth is,
you're primitives.

Your minds are dull.
Your hands are clumsy.

The scent of your
pink skin sickens me.

Does this skin
look pink to you?

Oh, you all look the same.

Let me ask you something.

You hate humans so much.

Why are letting
your boy marry one?

Oh...

Alak wishes it.

No.

You've been good with
this the whole time.

So, I gotta ask myself,
what's your angle?

What do you get
out of this wedding?

I believe in love.

You know, I was thinking
about how the McCawley Mines

were built on land
stolen from
Irathient settlers.

Now, that's a tainted legacy
that I do not want
to leave to our kids.

So when I die,

my mines go to
a trust benefitting

the Irathient
population of Defiance.

You do think I'm
doing the right thing,
don't you, Datak?

Oh, they're your mines,
Rafe. I don't care what
you do with them.

Good.

Breakfast is on me.

The wedding is off!

Datak, I understand
you're upset,

but if Christie does not
want to wear the telo...

It's not about
the gwoking telo!

Rafe McCawley
has written Christie
out of his will.

The mines are
going to the I-raths!

Rafe may say that now,
but be patient.

Once his first
grandchild arrives,
he'll reconsider.

I will not wait.

Instead,
I will win this election.

Then, when I'm mayor,
I will find a way to

take the mines away
from Rafe McCawley!

How does Alak feel about this?

Alak's a child.
He'll get over it.

My parents would
not have wanted me
to marry you.

And yet, here we are.

Alak is more pliable
than either of us at his age.

We were immigrants.
We were strong
because we had to be.

Alak will never have to endure
the same hardships we did,

and I thank
RA-yet-so for that.

Don't you want
him to be happy?

Our son loves this human girl.

She makes him smile.

She lifts his spirits in a way
that nobody else can.

A Castithan woman
can lift his
spirits just fine.

Alak is of this new world.

He doesn't see
the humans the way we do.

He sees beauty in them.

Kindness.

Then he's lost
the sense of smell.

Maybe you have, too.

I'm calling the priest.

Perhaps Alak
should be the first
to hear of your decision.

You know, Nolan should really
be here right now.

It's a waste of time.

Yeah.
Looking for evidence
is a big waste of time.

You want evidence?

You know, if I ran things,

I'd have five deputies
combing over every
inch of this place.

You don't need five deputies.

What is that, a hair?

Whisker. Liberata.

Jered.

Jered, the bartender,
was working here
when Hunter owned it.

Jered, it's Tommy. You around?

Jered?

It's locked.

So?

So we've gotta go
back to Nolan and get

a warrant or something.
We can't just...

Can't just what?

Poor Jered.

His throat's been
slit earlobe to earlobe.

Just like Elah Bandik.

Someone didn't
want him to talk.

Why are his fingers
like that?

I don't know.
Maybe nitrogen deprivation.

This has all
the markings of a Casti hit.

When I was about your age,

the Arks were going through
their final preparations.

I had just won
passage playing i-VA-li.

But my father
refused to leave home.

I... I don't understand.
Why would he stay
on a dying planet?

He said if the suns were to
swallow up our world,

he needed to be
inside the walls
of the holy temple.

He could not
leave the Castithan
scrolls unattended.

Not even in the face of death.

Do you know why?

No.

Because he had
made that promise
to his own father.

Um...

Fine. Yeah.
No, I'll talk to
Christie about the telo.

When I gave you permission
to marry outside of our race,

I knew it was a dishonor
to my father's memory.

But I let you and
your mother sway me.

I was wrong.

But, Dad... No. I...

I regret allowing it
to have come this far,
but you are my only son, Alak,

and our Castithan
blood will not be diluted.

Do you understand?

No, no, no.
I don't understand, okay?
I love her.

This is bullshtak.

Watch yourself.

Without the name Tarr,
you're nothing.

Nothing but a street haint
with dyed hair and
a record collection.

"Street haint"?

Isn't that how
you see yourself?

You're always talking about

how you pulled
yourself out of the mud

and made
the humans respect you?

I said to watch your tongue.

I don't give a kanga rat's ass
about the sacred scrolls.

All right, maybe
your father chose to die

guarding a bunch
of stupid papers,

but I wasn't born on Casti.
I was born on Earth,
just like Christie.

And we're getting married.

I didn't expect you
to be happy about this,
but you will obey my wishes.

Or what?
You're gonna slit my throat?
That's the Casti way.

I'll give you
time to cool off.

Datak.

Not now, Lawkeeper.

It can't wait. It will wait.

Datak Tarr,
you're under arrest.

On what charges?

For the murder of
Jered Kikema and Hunter Bell.

Come in.

She's in there.

Hey!

Hey.

I'm so excited.

I even decided
to wear the telo.

I know I said I didn't
want to. But then
I was thinking...

My wedding,

my dream of what I
wanted it to be like
when I was a little kid.

That's never going to happen,

because my mom won't be there,
my brothers won't be there.

All that matters is
that you're there.

And if it makes your
parents happy for me

to wear a metal
mask over my face,

then so be it.Christie.

There's something
I need to tell you.

Christie.

What did you do?

What did you say to her?

It's my father. He...
He's trying to
stop the wedding.

I don't know what to do.

I can't live without her.

You really love her,
don't you?

Yes, sir.

Well,
then that's all that matters.

Why in the three
hells would I kill

a knee-high
Liberata bartender?

Maybe because he knew
you killed Hunter Bell.

Or maybe because
he helped you hide the corpse.

I have no idea what
you're talking about.

You don't recognize this? No.

Really? 'Cause we
found that in your closet.

And that handle,
that matches the caved-in

part of Bell's skull
like a key fits a lock.

Well, I've never seen
it before in my life.

Tommy tells me
that you and Bell
were in business together.

Yeah, you might say that...

You're asking for a raise?

I'm asking for a stake.
I built this tent.

I quadrupled
profits every month.
I deserve it.

Well, look who's all grown up.

When I first came to town,
you were running
brawls in dark alleys,

jacking rollers
on Urdu Street.

My money made you, Tarr.
Don't ever forget that.

With all due respect,

I suggest you reconsider.

You know, in some cultures,

when a man
challenges the chief,
there's a fight

until only one of
them is left standing.

You want power?

Power isn't seen. It's felt.

How does that feel?

Get up!

All right, come on!

What's wrong,
can't win a fair fight?

I win.
That's all that matters.

Drop the blade or I drop you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

I believe your life
expectancy has taken
a turn for the worse.

Why did you do it?

Well, call me old-fashioned,
but I believe in a fair fight.

Yes, you are old-fashioned,
right down to

your choice of
antique weapons.

I like to hit
what I'm aiming at,

and my aim isn't
always too good.

I'll try to remember that.

That clown is making
a move on my mines.

I imagine you've no intention
of allowing that to happen.

See,
normally, I wouldn't think
you and I have much in common.

But when it comes to
our friend Hunter Bell,
I think we do.

Let me buy you a drink.

I wish I had
the pleasure of hearing
Hunter Bell's last breath,

but I'm afraid
someone else beat me to it.

Whoever it is,
they're trying to frame me.

They planted that
walking stick in my closet.

Any idea who?

I pay my taxes
so people like you

can figure
things like that out.

Get outta here! Go on.

What was that?

Theater.

Datak Tarr is an egomaniac.

If he had killed Hunter Bell,
that body wouldn't
be holed up in a wall.

It'd be on display
in the town square.

So, then why did we
bring him in here?

Now he's good and riled up,

maybe he'll lead
us to the person

who framed him,
the real killer.

You knew this this whole time.
Why didn't you tell me?

I thought you'd be
more convincing this way.

Where I come from,
framing a man is
the act of a coward.

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

Hunter Bell.
You had as much reason
to kill him as I did.

Why not just have
the JON-du-rato admit it
instead of implicating me?

You really think I
killed that sack of shtako?

Well,
if you didn't do it, who did?

Don't know, don't care.
I have a wedding to attend.

Well, the wedding is off.

That's what
Alak said at first.

Then we started talking.

Your son loves my daughter,
and my daughter loves him,

and that's good enough for me.

Oh, he may never get my mines,
but I will look out for him,

and I will make sure
that those kids have

a wedding that they
will always remember.

Oh, please.

Um...

We should get over there.
The ceremony's about to begin.

Dr. Yewll? I got your message.

I'm just on my
way to the wedding.

I won't keep you long.

Would you mind
locking the door?

Have you come to a decision?

Are we partners again?

We'll get so much
farther working together.

This isn't about the artifact.

Our favorite
Liberata bartender
was killed today.

Oh, no. How sad.

A Casti charge
blade slit his throat.

Oh, Datak Tarr.
Why am
I not surprised?

Nicolette.

It's me you're talking to.

I had no choice.

He was the only person
who knew that we
killed Hunter Bell.

There was no
reason to hurt him.

Jered's known
the truth for seven years
and he never said a word.

It was pre-emptive.

I was exposed once, Doctor.

I couldn't risk
that happening again.

Well, vision seems
to be functioning okay.

Well, I told you, I'm fine.

It's just this damn
ache in my arm and leg.

Okay. Well,
let's take a look at it.

Okay, wiggle your fingers.

How did you get in here?

Kenya slipped.
I needed some salve.

Well, get out.

This is a sterile environment.

I thought you might come by.

Excuse the renovations.

Drink, ladies?

Or should I call
you something else?

I'm afraid there's
been a misunderstanding.

Yes. There certainly has.

The citizens of this town
believe their
mayor is a human being.

What do you want?

Well,
let's start with the truth,

because I am bubbling
over with curiosity.

I am an Indogene, Mr. Bell.

Nicky...

Camouflaged
biologically to appear human.

What are you,
some sort of spy?

Oh. There is
something very important
in this town, Mr. Bell.

In the wrong hands,
it could be very dangerous.

We're here to
prevent that happening.

We're here to protect Earth.

Yeah?
For my kind or your kind?

For all kinds.

Well, I don't want
to get in the way
of your important job,

so, why don't you
give me a cool hundred G

to keep that secret
of yours nice and safe?

Oh, I've heard
what an enterprising
young man you are.

Quite the negotiator to boot.

This isn't a negotiation.

You're right about that.

Oh, my God!

You psycho piece of shtako!

You JEK-king killed him!

I was afraid I hadn't
hit him hard enough.

Oh, Jered, dear,
would you mind helping us
clean up this mess?

Relax, Doctor.

It's all cleaned up.

It's over.

Yes, I suppose it is.

You know, when I
first came to this town,
I wanted to start over.

I wanted to right my wrongs.
And you...

Well, you told me
everything that
I wanted to hear.

You were my inspiration.

But you changed.

You unleashed the Volge,
Nicky.

You murdered
a harmless bartender.

It has become
painfully clear to me

that there is no
end to the lives

that you're
willing to sacrifice

for what you call
"the greater good."

If I can't trust you
with a simple walking stick,

how am I supposed to trust you
with a genocidal weapon?

The first needle
was a paralytic.

It'll stop you
from struggling,

and also from
experiencing pain.

You know, I've changed, too.

I've become a healer
instead of a destroyer.

And that's why I'm so sorry
for what I have to do.

But it's for the greater good.

Goodbye, old friend.

There.

You look beautiful.

I didn't think
I'd be this nervous.

You have nothing
to be nervous about

as long as you
remember that your husband

is your partner
and your equal.

And you are
never gonna let him
treat you as anything less.

No.

Christie, can I have
a word with you, please?

Good luck.

Bye, Stahma.

I understand
you're not
comfortable wearing the telo.

Oh, it's all right, really...

So I made this
for you instead.

An old world bridal veil?

I copied it from a book.

Stahma, you didn't have to.

I wanted to.

As my grandmother
said to my mother
on the day of her wedding...

And the bride
from darkness comes

into the light

of her shining groom.

Datak accused
Rafe of framing him.

But I don't buy it.

Nor do I.

Dad.

It's okay, Alak.
Here, give me your hand.

You okay?

Weddings are
just weird for me.

Yeah, I get that.

Wow.

No knives.

Why is she not
wearing the telo?

I don't know.

Nicky isn't here.

That's strange.

Jered's fingers.

I knew I'd seen
that somewhere before.

The Liberatas, during the war,

when the E.M.C.
used oxygen bombs,
that's what they looked like.

Liberatas breathe nitrogen,
not oxygen.

Oxygen poisoning.

Today is a special day, an important day for Defiance.

That's why I
didn't want to spoil it
with my presence.

I killed Hunter Bell
for what I thought

was the betterment
of this town.

When his body was
recently discovered,

I killed Jered Kikema
whose only crime
was witnessing my own.

I realize it's
only a matter of time

before the lawkeeper
discovers the truth.

With my health,
I'll never
survive Vegas Prison.

So I've decided
to end my life.

I told myself
I was acting for
the greater good,

but that kind of thinking
leads you down a dark road.

I can only hope I've
left the town I love
in better hands than my own.

I'm sorry.

She used to be good people.

Well, sometimes good
people do bad things.

Congratulations, kid.

You solved your first case.

Yeah, it's just...
I can't believe it.

Mayor Nicky.

I know.

People are a mystery, kid, sometimes even to themselves.

And they all have secrets.

Only rule I know is
that every time you think

you have 'em
figured out, they change.

We all do.
