Boo!

Where have you been?

Aden?

We just went for a walk, Miss Alice.

I told you, outside of class
it's just Alice.

Did you leave the village?

No.

Masks off.

Did you leave Harlow?

Aden, I've warned you
it's dangerous out there.

But we look just like them.
They'd never know.

You're too young. It's not safe.

Here in the village,
you're protected from the world.

From humans.

- Yeah, but...
- They're not ready for our kind.

They're afraid of
what they don't understand.

Are you gonna tell our parents?

Do you promise it won't happen again?

I'll think about it.

Now scoot. All of you.

- ♪ And do we all go down with the ship? ♪
- Hey! Got some spark plugs for the beast.

I thought you were gonna
put the storm windows on today.

Oh! Yeah, I will. Uh... later.

Whenever you get under that car's hood,
you lose all track of time.

Cross my heart.

Here, let me help.

How was your day?

Classes went well.

But some of the kids
went exploring today.

- Outside the village?
- They're curious.

Restless.

Sometimes I think they feel cooped up,

cut off from the real world.

We are talking about the kids, right?

The real world is a dangerous place.

For them and for us.

We only go outside
when it's absolutely necessary.

I know.

The kids have to learn they can't go
and mingle with humans on their own.

I know. That's what I tell them.

But I'm just their teacher.
I'm not their mother.

Well, you might be a mom. Soon.

Hm!

- Nice try.
- Mm.

- I know your little tricks.
- Mm-hm.

Now go put the storm windows on.

- Oh!
- Winter's coming.

My blood tells me it's gonna
be a bad one.

You're a hard woman, Alice Harlow.

- Go.
- All right.

We were at peace
at Harlow Village.

You would have liked it there.

Living among your own kind...

Proud of your birthright as warlocks.

Safe from humans and Presidio.

We protected them.

- We loved them.
- Love them.

You lied to them.

You kept them as lab rats,

an experiment you could control.

We would kill for them.

You would kill them.

You can't believe that.

We know what you are...

- What we are.
- How could you love us?

Because you're our children.

Humans and monsters living together?

A brave new world?

Is that possible?

I used to think so...

but that was then.

That truck was coming a mile a minute.

- Oh, my God. I... I could've...
- But you're okay.

Thank you so much.

Uh, I think this is yours.

Oh! Thanks.

Uh...

You just found out?

Um, nearing the end
of the first trimester, actually.

You excited?

Yeah, mostly.

Also terrified?

- How'd you guess?
- My daughter just turned five.

I remember what it was like.

First the... the morning sickness,
then the cravings

and the shopping.

Oh, my husband's gonna hit the roof.

Ah, not if he doesn't find out.

I like the way you think.

Actually, I got off easy.

Mine, uh... left in my eighth month.

- Shit, I'm sorry.
- Oh, no, good riddance.

We're better off without him,
Sarah and me.

You know, I'd kill for a cappuccino.

Be happy to buy a proud mama-to-be
one too.

Uh, decaf, of course.

Actually, um...

I can't.

No problem.

I'm Kate, by the way.

Alice.

And don't worry, you're gonna have
a beautiful, healthy baby.

Before you know it, you're gonna be up to
your elbows in diapers and other shit.

Hmm. Thanks.

Hey, Kate?

Actually, I think I might have time
for a quick espresso.

Yeah?

♪ Shock ♪

♪ Don't be polite ♪

I was starting to believe you were
a figment ofAlice's imagination.

Oh!

My, uh... my work keeps me pretty busy.

Ah. Well, I'm glad she got you
out to the city for a night off.

Didn't I tell you Kate has a lovely home?

Yeah. No, it's beautiful.

I'd love to see your place someday.

- Oh... It's just a... a country house.
- Mm.

But I bet you've done an amazing job
decorating the baby's room.

We've had a lot of help
from the neighbors.

I miss that.

Small town,
neighbors you actually talk to...

Sounds like a tight-knit community.

- Yeah.
- We look out for each other.

Oh, hey. I'm the host. I'll do that.

It's all right.
I need to, uh... stretch my legs.

- Is he...
- Probably just tired.

Give us a minute.

Yeah.

- Okay, come on.
- What?

Don't make me drag it out of you.

All right, then.
You're getting too comfortable.

I'm having fun.

This is dangerous.

Remember what you tell your students.

In Harlow, we're safe.

Out here, it is a whole other world.

- This is different.
- How?

It's just Kate. A girlfriend.

A human.

We're just having dinner at her house.

That's all.

You're right.

And how can Kate afford all this?

She's some sort of business consultant.

Big contracts? I don't know.

It's really none of our business.

- I thought she was your friend.
- Omari.

All I'm saying is,
don't lose yourself to blind trust.

I won't.

Now...

Breathe.

Everything's fine.

We're gonna have a beautiful family

and I have a new friend.

Mm...

I just have a headache.

We're, um... gonna leave.

No way! You promised.

You promised.

- Okay. Just a quick one.
- Mm!

- I picked it up from my mom.
- Ah.

She says that
coffee grounds tell us everything.

The past, present, the future...

They do this in the Middle East,

but the people there picked it up
from something older, wiser, more ancient

- and...
- Magical?

Yeah. You can call it magic if you want.

- Mm.
- Okay. For real. Here we go.

So, you see this?

- Mm?
- That's a candle.

So?

Well, if I remember correctly,

that means that someone will come along

and help you achieve
something big and important.

Conveniently vague.

- And there's a cat.
- I bet that means something too.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. Keep going.

Oh, and there's a moon.
A full one, I think. And a hand.

Oh, I remember that one.

That means friendship...

and family.

This is all sounding
like a greeting card.

And... um... Hm.

- What?
- There's, um... a knife.

That's a breakup with a lover.

Ah. Already done.

Or a friend.

Hm.

To hell with coffee.
Let's have another glass of wine.

- Oh!
- Aah!

Kate?

What was that pill you took?

Mom?

Hey, lovely. What's up?

There's a monster in the house.

- Oh!
- What did she say?

Oh, that was just a bad dream.
Right, Sarah?

- No, it was a monster.
- No, look around. It's just us here, cub.

- I'm not telling stories.
- Ow.

There's no such thing
as monsters, sweetie.

Oh, for fuck's sake.

You're bleeding.

I'm fine, honey.

You know...
I'll take her back upstairs, okay?

Just stay here.

Okay, thanks, pal.

- We're leaving.
- Yeah.

Okay.

Later that night, I learned
what the knife reading signified.

Shh... ssh... it's okay.

But that wasn't the half of it.

I had started to have horrifying dreams.

So real... so hard to shake.

I couldn't make sense of them.

It's okay.

All I knew was that
I feared for the future of my family,

my community.

My people's ancient rituals
dating back to prehistory

were all under threat,

despite the fact that we had always
lived in harmony with the universe.

Elder Gabriel's life is complete.

He has passed on.

We will burn our dead in body
to join them

with the blood of our ancestors,

and on the sunrise, venerate our young,

so they may walk in their footsteps.

Grieve the end of life

so that death may be celebrated.

Body and blood!

Body and blood.

Body and blood!

I was tired of seeing
so many of my kind die,

never having known
a life of equality and freedom.

And mine wasn't the only species
that wanted change.

We're going to carve out
a territory of our own.

A nation of our own for our kind.

Especially with house Harlow on our side.

And how many murders will that take?

Justice demands sacrifices.

I've been out there in the world.

Humans are oppressed as well.

There's another way, you know?

Rise up within this broken system.

Use it for the betterment of everyone.

We're protecting our kind.

Our histories are
littered with failed uprisings,

all smashed by the iron fist of Presidio.

Haven't you seen enough death?

I've lost women, men, children and family.

Our kind are done dying.

What Presidio doesn't know this time is

we are prepared to go
much further than they are.

Going further doesn't
necessarily mean progress.

Well, you also can't stab a woman
in the back ten inches deep

and then pull the knife out five inches
and call that progress.

Enough of this! You're dreaming.

You want to sing "Kumbaya"
with the people that are hunting you.

And you, Moshe,
want to start a wide-scale war

that will ensure our devastation!

Your magical ashes will only
protect you for so long.

They will find a way.

Presidio never sleeps.

So we must be as restless as they are.

And keep meeting violence with violence?

We must be better than that.

It's too late.

Most of the warlock tribes
have been wiped out.

I'm just now starting to pick up
the scattered pieces of my own.

That's why peace gives us
an opportunity to rebuild,

and if that takes generations, so be it.

Peace... Rebuild...

Some of us don't have centuries
to play the long game.

And some of us continue to suffer
out there in the actual world.

Thank you for having us.

By blood and body.

By this body and this blood...

but not humans.

But I couldn't help but be
drawn to the human world,

to be idealistic and optimistic
for my family's sake.

You know, Kate, how...
we're always talking about...

changing the world
and making it better for everyone?

I think it starts with us.

Look, I know you're trying to help,

but, for once, don't give me
your high and mighty bullshit.

You have this perfect life...

with this perfect husband.

You're mysterious and fun and passionate.

Some of us need help.

- Something else.
- Pills.

Fuck you.

- You have a daughter.
- Exactly!

I'm doing this alone.

I got in that car wreck last year.

The divorce... uh...

I'm doing my best.

And I don't need judgment
from my so-called best friend.

All right.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I just... I do care about you.

I know.

I'm just figuring shit out.

Yeah.

Uh... can you just
watch Sarah for a minute?

Sure.

Louise, come on,
it's time to go home.

Okay, boys, come on.

Yeah!

Where's Mommy?

You know what, sweet pea?

We're gonna go find her. Come on.

Honey, can you look this way
to see if Mommy's coming. Okay?

Hey!

Look, the deal's changed and you owe me.

Give me...

- I said no!
- Give me the fucking money!

Oh, Sarah's finally asleep.

Why didn't you tell me you were
in so much trouble?

It's nothing I can't handle.

You're lying.

To yourself.

But if I go to rehab...

I'll lose Sarah.

Your daughter needs you to be you.

It'll be for the best.

I don't know what to do.

I've already lost everything.
I can't... lose her, too.

You won't.

And you have me.

We're almost home.

I took her to the hospital,
but her insurance got rejected.

Without me, she'll end up
back on the street.

So, you brought her here, to our village,
to our home.

I had no choice if I wanted
to keep her and her child safe.

I thought you'd understand.

How am I the bad guy here?

Keep your voice down.

Kate's upstairs
trying to get Sarah to sleep.

Look, I'll talk to her again
about getting professional help.

She just needs some time
and understanding.

- Where would you have taken her?
- Oh, let's see...

A hotel...

uh, the police, her sister's place,

- Kevin's place...
- Her ex?

They've been divorced for over a year.

She would lose custody of Sarah.

Do you really want that?

It makes a lot more sense
than bringing her here.

Do you realize how much danger
you've put us all in? And them?

Did you ever think she might
be safer here with us?

You know, no drug dealer or drugs.

I just want you to have my back for once.

- That is not fair.
- Because I always have yours,

- even when I don't agree with you.
- Don't distract from the real issue here.

You are putting everything
on the line, and...

And for what? For them?

- You have a community here, a family.
- Oh... Don't. Just don't.

Your actions have consequences.
You're risking lives.

Not as many as you're risking

just by sitting around,
letting time pass us by.

You know, the world is moving on,
and we're not.

Oh, wow!

Sometimes the best thing to do is nothing.

Are you afraid I might actually
be right about them?

I've always supported
everything you've wanted to do.

I just... I don't want you to get hurt.

Look, it's okay to be afraid.

Don't talk to me about fear.

Out there, you can pass
as a pretty white lady if you want to,

but you don't have to be
a warlock or a monster

to understand the dangers
of navigating life

amongst those goddamn people
as a black man.

My grandparents were strung up from trees

and burned alive,

and not just because they were warlocks.

That's also why we founded this place.

Because that's something our family
will have to contend with.

I'm a man...

a black man,

and a father to a black child,

so fear...

Yeah.

But cowardice...

Never.

Um, sh... she's asleep.

Thank you for everything.

Tomorrow morning,
we're gonna take Sarah to school

and then we're gonna find you
a great rehab.

I appreciate you parking
a few blocks away.

No problem. We could use the exercise.

I just needed a few minutes to...

Find the brave. I know.

One step at a time.

This is a whole new beginning.

Mm-hm.

But I hadn't been right
about humans.

They are the real monsters.

She had drugged me to suppress my powers.

- Secure.
- There's no drug dealer. Or addiction.

Look, it's not like I wasn't
moved and touched.

Because I was.

And your name's not Kate, is it?

Middle name.

But that's as real as it gets.

Edith Mooreland.

Fuck. You're deep cover Presidio ops.

Harlow...

- This has all been about finding Harlow.
- And you.

You're a big part of this.

You're gonna teach us everything, right?

How it all works?

What if Sarah knew
what her mother was doing?

Oh, fuck, there's no Sarah, is there?

Oh, there definitely is,
but that wasn't her.

No, unlike you, I'd never put
my child in that kind of danger.

Not when I know what you're capable of.

But for what it's worth, Alice,
this is all about Sarah.

All of this is for her.

To make the world a better place
for her kind,

a safe place for her people.

We have her. You've got the coordinates.

- You fucking...
- Let's stop talking about feelings

and start talking about reality.

I've seen fuckery you couldn't imagine.

Children disemboweled by werewolves,

families drained bloodless by vampires...

So, no, I don't need your gratitude.

It's enough knowing I'm saving future
generations of innocent lives.

I'm just the harbinger for a better world.

My will to survive
for the life inside me went out.

I managed to free myself
and make it back to Harlow.

But it was too late.

Presidio was already at our gates.

We fight because we must fight.

At 0800 hours...

we'll be launching
one of the greatest premeditated raids

in the history of Presidio.

It existed long before we were born,

and it will exist long after we're gone.

Because of you!

This is about survival.

So here, now...

we are gonna take out

the greatest threat to humanity.

Warlocks.

And that's when my water broke.

Labor was painful, but what's pain
compared to the end of the world?

You know what comes next.

It was a full-scale attack.

They were using some sort of sonic weapon
to neutralize everyone's powers.

Kill them, now!

Come on! Come on!

Come on, right fuckin' now!

- Come on. Come on!
- Let's go!

It was like lambs to the slaughter.

I had led the enemy right to our door.

Shoot 'em, right now!

Lead 'em out. Go on, get them out.

Let's go. Move it! Move it!

Where are you taking him?

Where are you taking him?

Let's go! Move it, move it.

- Okay!
- Shoot their ass!

Coming through!

Aden!

Aden!

- Oh...
- Miss Alice?

Oh! No, no, no. Stay with me.

Stay with me. Stay with me.

Stay with me. Stay with me.

No, no, no!

Oh, no...

Omari!

Omari, please!

Where are you?

Help me...

It's happening.

Omari was determined
to preserve everyone's legacy.

Omari!

I'm here. You're not alone.

Amidst the carnage,
I found Omari via a connection,

a shared bond that allowed my people

to commune with one another
and the world around us.

A connection that you unknowingly
tapped into as well.

The séance?

Yes.

You called me here, Viv.

You freed me.

That is the power
of our blood and history,

and why we'd do anything to protect it.

Come back!

I will.

But I must protect the ashes.

There's no time!

I need you!

We need you.

This is our legacy.

Turn around slowly.

Show me your hands.

Put down the urn.

Alice...

protect yourself...

- and our family.
- No!

Omari!

Live your life, Alice.

I love you!

Just as one life ended,
another was trying to enter the world.

You killed him, Dad?

That's not the whole story.

That's right. It's not.

It gets worse.

It's all right.

Mama will be back.

I'll keep you safe.

The ashes were all that remained
of our people.

It was my duty to protect them.

Some might consider this a failure.

Two lines over there.

All square.

Move on to the next one.

Shekilled several of our men.

Where is she now? Alice?

Still on the loose.

You spared no one.

We have to be able to risk it all,

if we are to progress.

Otherwise we die.

But you did well.

I applaud you for keeping your...

personal feelings in check.

I serve Presidio.

Well, as do we all.

We have it, sir. Target acquired.

And it's for moments like this.

The ashes of my ancestors.

The true reason for genocide.

Oh!

Oh! Oh...

Oh... Omari.

I'll protect our legacy.

Omari was gone, the ashes were gone,

but the worst was yet to come.

That was the end of my life at Harlow

and the birth of a new chapter
with a nation of our kind,

a chapter seeking justice.

But I learned even our kind
weren't prepared to go far enough.

They weren't prepared
to do what needed to be done.

Like I am today.

I lost everything that day.

My community, my husband...

It's all right.

Mama will be back.

I'll keep you safe.

Both of them.

Or so I thought...

until I recently found them alive,

but unaware of who they really were...

or where they came from.

Stolen from me...

by the very enemies
who killed the last of our kin.

Deceived for the past 17 years.

You are my children.

Oh, God.

You are my babies.

Is this true?

Honey, listen, please.

- It's not what it seems.
- No.

No more excuses.
No more lies. It's a simple question.

Yes or no?

Is this true?

Yeah, it's true.
