(man) Last time on "Gargoyles":

Attacking a castle full of gargoyles near nightfall?

This is crazy, and Hakon knows it.

Goliath. I say take all your gargoyles and make sure they're gone.

I can scare those cowards away without any help.

- I cannot let you. - I won't go alone.

Remember, you and I are one.

(Goliath) We're too late.

The Vikings, Captain. We are attacked.

It is worse than that, Your Highness.

I haven't lived this long by taking foolish chances.

No.

My angel of the night.

(Sobs)

(mars)

These bowstrings have been cut. There was betrayal here.

(all gasp)

- Were any more down in the rookery? - None. Only us.

All the humans are gone. Taken prisoner, most likely.

Then we will find them.

We will save the humans.

And we will have our revenge!

(snarls)

(talking and laughter)

(sobbing)

Oh, God.

My friends, the gargoyles, will come, Mother.

Nay. The gargoyles were destroyed, Tom.

Hmm. The magus is worth more alive than dead. Barely.

True, but I'm sure your uncle, the king, will pay handsomely

to see his niece returned alive.

You blackguard. If I had my book of spells, I'd...

(laughfef)

Might you be referring to this book, Magus?

Magic spells. Ha! Makes me glad I can't read.

- (Magus) No! My spells! - Ha ha ha!

Oh, traitor. I'll see you both hang for this!

Do not vex me, Princess, or it's your neck.

(roaring)

(cries of alarm)

- They're coming! Run for your lives! - Look out!

- You said they wouldn't follow us. - If you hadn't destroyed the others...

Your precious gargoyles have come, Princess.

The gargoyles?

You're a dead man, Hakon.

Maybe. But not before you.

Let her go! Princess!

Help! Somebody help! He's going to slay her! Princess!

(ropes strain)

Argh!

Argh!

- Oh! - Arghg (snarls)

Argh!

Told you they'd save us.

You fools! She'd be alive now if you hadn't come.

What's he talking about?

They would have ransomed us both, but you invaded their camp and now...

- What's all this? Where's the princess? - Dead.

And could I but wield a sword, I would send you all to join her.

But this will have to do instead.

Dormiatis dum casteilum super nubes ascend-at.

Oh!

(grunts)

(gasps)

(snarls)

- You are the betrayer? - It was not supposed to be this way.

All of my kind are dead.

And now, you two will join them.

I told you to take the other gargoyles with you.

- If you'd only listened. - Traitor!

He's the one you want. He shattered them!

You lying scum!

Argh!

I've been denied everything.

Even my revenge!

Goliath. I...

Goliath, you've got to help your friends.

Stone. At night?

What sorcery is this?

Sorcery indeed. And now you shall join them.

- Princess? - Oh, Magus, what have you done?

I——...

|-| thought you were dead, your Highness.

I was mad with grief.

Reverse the spell. Bring them back!

|-| cannot. The page with the counter spell was burned.

(low growl)

Now I am truly alone.

You turned them to stone forever?

The terms of the spell were that they would sleep

until the castle rises above the clouds.

We have done you a great wrong, Goliath.

I know that no apology can be enough, Goliath.

I wish there was something I could do.

What will you do now, Princess?

I'll take my people to my uncle. It's no longer safe for us here.

- I have a request. - You have but to name it.

The eggs in the rookery will soon hatch. They will need guidance.

Never fear. We will watch over them as if they were our own.

There is something you can do for me, Magus.

Cast your spell one more time.

At last. Castle Wyvern.

Magnificent.

Make the offer now, Owen. This instant.

May I say one last time, Mr Xanatos,

that the costs of this venture will be astronomical.

Start hiring crews. I want to begin as soon as possible.

It may prove difficult to find the necessary manpower.

This castle has a bad reputation. The locals consider it haunted.

You know the answer to that, Owen.

Pay a man enough and he'll walk barefoot into hell.

Don't disappoint me.

(wind whistles)

(mars)

(roaring)

(Qfbwls)

Yes.

We're awake. We're alive!

We're together again.

Huh?

Wham';?

What's this? Where are we?

(snarls)

You are the one called Goliath?

Yes.

Excellent.

(Goliath) How long has it been?

This may be a shock. A thousand years have gone by since the spell was cast.

I learned about the castle and you six

from an ancient book that recently came into my possession.

The magus who cursed you wrote the whole story down in there.

Now.

- I'm sure you have questions. - How did you break the spell?

It was designed to end when the castle rose above the clouds.

The eggs in the rookery?

Gone, I'm afraid. You are the last of your kind.

Why have you done all this?

I was fascinated by the magus' story. I wanted to see if it was true.

And, now that I know it is, I want to be your friend.

There is much we can do for each other, Goliath.

Such as?

- Well... - (helicopter)

I'm not expecting anyone. You'll be safer if you stay here.

(helicopter draws nearer)

Secure the area!

- What do you want? - You'll know... soon enough.

(guns being cocked)

What's going on? Who are these people?

They're attacking the castle, that's all we need to know.

What...?

Uh!

(snarls)

- Nice mask. - (growls)

Argh!

Leave him alone.

Hm.

Are you a Viking?

These weapons. We must be battling sorcerers.

Even so, we will protect this castle. It's all we have left.

Catch!

Time to take the gloves off.

(commotion)

(cries of panic)

(coughing and choking)

(barks)

Uh!

(metallic scraping)

(Sigh of relief)

(yells and screams)

Get back! Or you'll wind up street pizza.

Claw marks?

(beeping)

- Gotcha. - Agh!

(snarls)

(coughing)

Got it!

(coughs and chokes)

Let's go. We got what we came for.

I don't think so.

(panting)

I've never seen weapons like those before.

And that flying creature that carried them off.

A dragon, without a doubt.

It wasn't a dragon. It was a machine of some sort.

Thank you.

Without you and your friends, who knows what those thugs might have done.

Someone I once trusted said the same thing to me.

And then destroyed my people.

Hm. I can see I'll have to work hard to earn your trust.

(low snarl)

Owen? We'll need a cleanup crew outside.

Why were you attacked?

The richer you are, the more enemies you have. And I'm very rich.

Goliath, this is your home as well as my headquarters.

I hope you'll consider working with me to keep it safe.

It's your decision, lad, but we've nowhere else to go.

(sighs) This castle is our home, no matter where it has been taken.

- We will stay here. - Excellent.

I know you've been used poorly by men in the past,

but all that is about to change. Trust me.

You broke the spell of sleep that imprisoned us, Xanatos,

and for that we are grateful.

But we will never trust humans again.

I can tell this relationship is something we'll all have to work at.

(low growl)

(commotion)

What do you figure that was all about, Detective?

I don't know, but I'm going to find out.

(man) Next time on "Gargoyles":

This investigation isn't over yet.

Wait!

(mar)

S-stay back.

Let me see ya. Nice and easy.

Whoa!

(mar)

(gasps)

Argh!
