Previously on Blade:

You mother needs you.

She's fine.

She's not fine, Krista.

She's sick.

What's wrong with her?

( screaming )

Blade...

Blade-- yes, I know.

I want you in Berlin tonight.

What's in Berlin?

My property was stolen.

I want you to find her and bring her.

Silver has no effect on Blade.

I know.

I'm in a war... with you.

I better look like it.

What happened?

Blade happened.

I salvaged what I could.

Blade got nothing.

We reached out to help you.

You bit us for it.

You were killers way before I ever met you.

( screaming )

Another time, little man.

( gunshots )

( grunting )

Hello, Donny.

Looks like your past

is finally coming back to haunt you.

What do you want from me?

This.

Did you call your friend at the CDC?

When did I become your secretary?

You want to dial her up?

Just hit that key right there.

I've got garlic shells to fill.

I don't do this.

That's 'cause I do everything.

Didn't fix the AC in the car yet.

Maybe you should look into getting a badass, summer-weight coat.

You gotta stop bugging. I'm going as fast...

Do you know what it is?

Like I said before, not completely.

You got the sample three days ago.

Yeah, and I got access to CDC computers

nine hours ago.

You're stressing everybody, dude.

What have you learned in nine hours?

Okay. I think it's a keyhole virus.

A keyhole virus?

Yeah, a virus

targeted at a specific DNA sequence.

So it's targeted at one person?

People, I think.

A race. Maybe even a species.

Human or vampire?

Working on that now.

When will you know?

I'll call you when I have something.

Later.

First, Marcus is trying

to make vampires immune to their weaknesses.

And now he's trying to make a virus that wipes out... what?

If your girlfriend worked faster, we'd know.

Can I make a suggestion? Take a walk.

I hear housewares on the fifth floor is wide open.

There's nothing but dark,

empty space. Go chill.

( high-pitched alarm blaring )

What's that?

A name just tripped the system.

"Donny Flanigan."

What happened to him?

He died.

Badly.

Went down a few minutes ago.

He's an ex-cop.

Blade...

...who is he?

Mom, hold on. They're here.

She has leukemia, stage four. It's chronic lymphocytic.

She's on Cladribine, Dolasetron and Prednisone.

Mom, the ambulance is here, okay?

No hospital.

She's been coughing up blood for the past 15 minutes.

Let's go! Let's go!

Krista, I'm not going to the hospital.

I want to stay here.

No, Mom, you're not staying here.

Krista, I'm not dying in a hospital.

( coughing weakly )

They can do what they need to here.

I'm not leaving my home.

( coughing )

MAN: Krista. Krista.

( coughing )

Right now, the best thing for her

is to do what she wants.

Right now, the best thing for her is to stay alive.

That's not going to happen, Krista.

We got to let her go.

No. We don't.

Radio made it sound like crime scene techs would be here in 15.

We don't have much time.

When I clear the room, you be there, okay?

Yeah?

Yeah.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to clear this room.

If I could just have a minute alone to process this?

Okay.

This is going to come up a suicide.

We'll see. I'm sorry. Did you know him?

Yeah.

Okay, guys, let's go.

This wasn't a suicide.

Gun hand's broken.

SHEN: He was a cop.

Maybe he had enemies.

You knew him?

Yeah.

MAN: Eric Brooks. How you doing, kid?

Hey, Flanigan.

You feeling better?

Sleepy.

That's what you get for gallivanting

around the countryside, huh?

VIOLA: Viola's going to get you all fixed up.

Make a fist, honey.

Hey, I brought you some... some comic books.

"Earth's Mightiest Heroes."

"The Avengers."

Yeah. You bet.

You're going to have a lot of holes in you, that's for sure.

Nope.

Viola says that I'm a healer.

That's right. Hole today, gone tomorrow.

VIOLA: Now, you just lay back and get some rest,

and I'll check on that in a couple of hours.

Okay.

You stay cool. Okay, buddy?

Okay.

No more funny stuff now, you hear?

You rest.

Yes, Daddy.

( multiple locks clicking )

Thanks, Donny, Viola.

I don't know how he's doing it.

He's a kid.

Sneaking out is what kids do.

It's like he's like a ghost.

Yeah. Well, at least we know he's not a ghost.

Robert, I'm having a problem at work.

They're getting suspicious about the blood.

I don't think I can keep up these deliveries.

You can start tapping me again.

We can't do that forever.

What about the guy at the slaughterhouse?

The cow blood was...

No. That stuff just made him sick.

FLANIGAN: Can we talk about this Professor Caylo guy?

I mean, he knows people.

People who might be able to...

Come on. He's just some crazy-ass horror movie freak.

Just going to tell me

my son's some kind of monster.

Robert, he's not going to be a boy forever.

You cannot keep him locked up,

out of school, away from the world.

He's going to find out what he is soon enough.

And how are you going to handle that?

I'm his father.

I'll handle it.

SHEN: Blade.

There's something in his mouth.

What's that about?

It's about me.

DOCTOR: Does that hurt?

No.

Cover the other eye, please.

Good.

( sighs )

Can you read that?

There's nothing on it.

Ultraviolent spectrum?

It's a glyph from one of the houses.

Mm-hmm. Armaya.

You should know that.

I do.

Look, I'm fine. Can I go?

Your arm isn't fine. But it is healing.

Wear these until you don't need them anymore.

I heal from everything.

Except a silver stake through the head,

too much exposure to the sun,

garlic-- but I guess you know all those rules by now.

Yeah.

Hey, what if I was sick before I was turned?

I've seen cases of MS cured overnight.

Cripples walk again.

Immortality and immunity.

That's why some of the familiars

are so desperate to be turned.

I gotta go.

Where to?

Chase.

I haven't seen you in a while.

The butterfly isn't ready to emerge yet.

How you feeling, Krista?

I'm thirsty.

You haven't been drinking enough.

You'd be healing a lot faster if you had.

Let's go to the feeing room?

No.

I need to get out.

I want a fresh kill.

Maybe I'll come with you.

We had fun, didn't we, last time?

MARCUS: Actually, Chase, I need you for something else.

Happy hunting.

What do you have in store for me?

The details are there,

but in general terms, per our agreement,

the money we fronted Marcus

to produce the Aurora vaccine--

it's been laundered through his legitimate businesses,

dispersed through the global network of harversters.

The money went nowhere else?

Not that I can see.

He's either a very good boy

or he's very good at covering his tracks.

No evidence of a side project?

Something we didn't contract for?

Not so far.

I still have two investigators in the field.

How soon before we get Aurora?

Ma'am, I'm not sure Aurora will ever be delivered.

Or, if it is, it will make us immune to our weaknesses.

And why is that?

Marcus has shut down all the facilities

except one outside Reno, Nevada.

Per our arrangement

with Damek, Armayans are being delivered,

but soon after their arrival, they're being destroyed.

Prior to testing.

It seems so.

So Marcus is making theater.

Trying to delay us?

Or distract us.

From what?

From whatever Berlin was, perhaps.

I would like more time to investigate Marcus's woman.

Chase? She's been with him for years.

No, the new girl, Krista.

Marcus killed her brother

a few days before she fell into Chthon.

Killing a sibling is a common lure.

I've used it myself.

Still, there's something off.

Something of influence that I can't quite see.

Alright. Investigate.

Now, did you bring me what I asked for?

Lovely.

Glynis, you never disappoint.

Oh, look at you.

I could just eat you up.

Yes, I could.

Yes, I could.

I smell blood.

SHEN: Who was he?

A friend.

Check.

Take a moment now.

I've been taking a lot of moments.

In this moment, you'll see the trap I laid for you.

I saw it.

You don't see my way out.

I got you beat.

Mm-mm.

What?

Do you see it?

You knew where I was going.

Because I was thinking like you.

What were you thinking like?

A shining knight on a powerful horse,

riding to the rescue?

Learn to think like your opponent

or lose every time.

Checkmate.

I have to say, you had me worried there.

Yeah, you bet I did.

( chuckles )

MAN: Eric.

Mr. Brooks.

Mr. Taka, please.

You stay out of this.

Eric, get up.

Get over here.

Eric?

Eric.

Dad?

I don't feel so good.

I saw.

It's gonna be okay. Just, uh...

We gotta go home. Come on.

I was playing the game.

There'll be other games, Eric.

Let's go.

Shen.

I'm awake.

Find Viola.

I'm working on it.

Any guesses as to who's doing this?

A few.

You want to share?

Not yet.

Now focus.

I am focused.

I'm as focused as I've ever been.

I've got something.

What?

Viola Watkins changed her name in 1981.

To what?

I don't know yet.

Why do you think she changed her name?

I'm sure she had her reasons.

Dad?

Yeah, son.

Is something happening to me?

Yeah.

There is.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna help you.

I am.

We're gonna fix this together.

You and me.

Why?

Am I broken?

No.

You're special.

We're just gonna be extra careful.

( chains rattling )

You said there was somebody.

Somebody who could help.

Yeah, I got a name.

It's a guy who's had experience

with this sort of thing, but... Robert,

you gotta know something.

What?

If you do this...

everything's gonna be different.

I mean, forever.

Alright.

What's his name?

Mr. Brooks?

Yeah.

I'm here about the boy.

I'm Abraham Whistler.

These would be the only things that could stop him

if he was a true vampire,

but he ain't.

So what is he?

He's a daywalker.

Born of a woman who was bitten, but not yet turned.

In time, he will come to possess all their strengths

but none of their weaknesses.

When will that happen?

As soon as he starts feeling the thirst.

Something neither he nor you will be able to control.

What he's trying to tell you, Robert...

Your boy is unstoppable,

but he's not like the others.

He's not even a pureblood.

What the hell's a pureblood?

Born vampires.

They're the elite, rulers of the Houses, everything--

power, influence, evil.

It flows from them down to the drones,

to the rank and file.

But your son is different.

He will be a force to be reckoned with.

What do you wanna do?

Enlist him in the fight.

They've given us a weapon.

We can either use it or kill it.

So you want my son to help you start some kind of war?

You listen to me.

The war is already raging.

Your boy's at a crossroads.

Now he's tasted blood.

He's got the killer's instinct now.

But at this moment,

we can decide who he's going to destroy.

Innocent people... or those responsible for his pain...

and yours.

Eric!

Eric!

( echoing ): Eric!

Mrs. Taka?

Mr. Taka?

Mr. Taka?

MAN: Quit making so much noise, man!

Just open up the safe, alright?

Come on, come on! Hurry up, old man!

I ain't gonna say it again.

Look listen to me.

This thing ain't opened in three seconds,

my boy here's going to cut your heart out?

Leave him alone!

Eric. No!

Son of a bitch, he's gonna run! Kill him!

No!

( screaming )

Get off him!

( gasps, groans )

What have you done?

Dad...

Oh, my God.

Step aside, Mr. Brooks.

( groans )

I'm okay. I'm okay.

You said me and you would get through this.

You lied.

You don't want me anymore.

Eric...

( gunshot )

No, Eric, stop!

( gunshot )

Robert!

Oh, Eric.

Hey!

I'm gonna find her.

Can I ask you a question?

What?

Since your mom passed away, was your dad

and Viola...?

Yes.

Maybe he's the target of all this.

He's not.

Are you sure?

He's dead. I'm sure.

Got it.

Names and addresses.

Place of employment.

Set the alarms.

Let's go.

What's her name?

RAZOR: Shelly Porter.

Oh, yes, sir. Do you have an appointment?

Yes. She was going to give me a tour

of the facilities... for my mother.

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

You know, give me one second

and I'll just track her down for you.

I'm Sally Porter. How can I help you?

Hi. How's she doing now?

She's doing okay.

She's been talking about you.

You have a birthday coming up.

No, I don't.

It's the morphine.

She thinks you're gonna be six.

She's been shopping.

For a music box.

Yeah.

I still have it.

Look, if you want to go,

I can stay until, uh, just before dawn.

You can get another nurse.

Yeah, the day shift nurse.

I can get her here by 5:00.

Thanks.

Alright, have a good night.

Can I...

can I ask you how long?

Well, it's difficult to say.

It might be two days,

but I wouldn't say more than a week.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Thanks for everything.

Hey.

You're gonna be late.

You can't afford to be late.

Late for what?

For school.

You better go or you're gonna miss the bus.

It's not a school day.

It isn't?

Mm-mm.

Well, then, why don't you sit here with me

and we can stay together for a while?

We can stay together forever, if you want.

Would you like that?

Honey, that would be wonderful.

Sally Porter, where is she?

She's giving a tour.

Boy, that is some serious bling you got going on there.

Where is she?

Down in rehab.

This isn't good.

( panting )

Come on, Viola. Come on back.

( gasping )

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Are you alright?

No, he's killing everyone!

Do you know who it is?

He had these.

Steppin' Razor.

Do you know where he's going?

Home. Your home.

He's going to kill your father.

Viola, my father's dead.

No, honey, he's not.

He came back to town two months ago.

He's here because of you.

Stay with her.

I was wondering when you'd turn up.

Oh, you can stop wondering.

Did you kill him, too?

I wouldn't have had to if you'd gotten the story straight--

said your daddy had been shot, you saw him die.

That's what I saw.

I think that's what you hoped.

Good thing his girlfriend

was a nurse.

Where is he?

Where is he?

Out to lunch. Gone fishing.

Doesn't matter now, does it?

It's just you and me now.

Another second, it'll just be me.

Sure.

You know, you ask me...

he's been keeping an eye on you.

You hit Detroit,

and guess what, he shows up. It...

it kind of gets me.

Right here.

( yells )

( yelling )

( yells )

( chuckles )

Just like old times, huh?

( grunting )

( yells )

( yelling )

Hello, son.

( panting )

They're dead.

Flanigan. Taka.

He did that?

Viola?

( panting )

She's alive.

You saved her?

Son...

there's some things we need to talk about.

I'm not interested.

Eric, you got to know I was never ever gonna let you go.

You're not a monster, you're...

you're my son.

Not anymore.

You couldn't accept me.

What could I do? Right now, tell me.

What the hell can I do?

Go to hell.

Eric...

That's not my name.

And you're not my father.

He was a vampire who attacked my mother.

You're just a guy who was stuck holding the bag.

Please. Please.

If you want to live,

get as far away from me as possible.

( knocking on glass )

Mr. Gerrard? I'd like to talk to you.

GERRARD: So when did my nephew's murder

become a federal case?

It hasn't.

I'm looking for your niece, Krista.

Why, what's she done?

Nothing that I know of.

Know where I can find her?

No, I don't.

I mean, she's here in Detroit,

but, I don't know where she's staying.

I called her mother's house, I spoke to the nurse.

You did what?

I understand the situation.

Yeah, well, maybe you don't.

Krista's pretty much checked out of this family.

After her brother Zack was killed,

she kind of went off the rails.

She's hanging out with a different crowd now.

What kind of crowd?

Ever heard of Marcus Van Sciver?

No, who's he?

This town's answer to Donald Trump.

So what's Krista doing with him?

God only knows.

Oh, there's my sweetheart.

Hi, Mom.

Do you know how much I love you?

I think so.

Mom, I don't want you to go.

I have to.

There's nothing more we can do.

Yes, there is.

What is that?

It's medicine.

But I can't give it to you yet.

We have to do something first.

What do we have to do?

It's gonna hurt.

But only for a minute.

And then what?

Then you won't feel anything.

And when you wake up, I can give you this.

And we can be together forever.

That's nice.

Honey...

Honey, what are you doing?

( sobbing )

( crying )

( crying ): I love you.

GLYNIS: Wasn't that touching?

Give it back.

Don't waste your breath.

I've been following you all night.

Won't Mr. Van Sciver be interested

to know that you have somehow acquired a large stash of...

what is this exactly?

FBI! Hold it!

Oh, ...

Next time, on Blade...

( yells )

I saw you in the club and you looked...

lonely.

And you want to what?

Keep me company?

She turned her mother.

That's what it looks like.

( groans )

( pants )

I can't find her.

Help me.
