Original subtitles

"I want to live." That's God's honest truth.

I don't owe anything to a bunch of holier-than-thou nuns.

Life's unfair, ladies.

Take it from me.

I'm going back to my friends,

and I'm going to live the hell out of this life.

I'm going to swim and eat and kiss and dance

and maybe even make love to, well...

someone.

Eventually.

Speaking of which...

Temptation awaits.

Why am I cold all of a sudden?

Oh, no.

Don't stop. Don't look.

Just a girl walking home after a tough night.

Alone.

Nothing to see here... except...

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Ignore it. No one's asking for a hero.

That's not the life I chose.

Goddamn it!

Hey!

Wait! Stop!

See what you get for being a hero?

Mom?

Mom!

Mommy?

What's happening?

Why can't I move my body?

Hush, little lamb.

You've been in a car accident.

Your mother is gone.

But you're a very lucky little girl.

You're in my care now.

I'm not lost.

Just taking the scenic route.

I know it's around here somewhere.

Ava!

Ava, stop!

JC?

You're fast. What the hell?

What the hell, you? I was on my way to find you.

Yeah, the homeowners came back.

So, we had to bolt.

Holy shit! What happened?

- Oh... - Are you hurt?

No, no, no. I'm fine, really.

You should see the other girl.

She's essentially fine, by the way.

So, where is everybody?

Uh...

I'll take you.

Okay. Let's go.

- Oh, yeah. - It's...

So, Romeo finds his Rosaline.

You know, this sad dope's been going on and on about you since you disappea...

Good Lord, girl! What is that?

Uh... uh...

My time of the month?

Looks like your time of the year.

Hand her to me, Romeo. I'll find Carrie a prom dress.

- Oh... - It's all good.

Girl, the shit you get into.

This view is freakin' incredible.

And the wife has some expensive, eclectic tastes.

Let's see what we can find you that won't embarrass the rest of us.

Oh, what about this one?

Absolutely not.

Why not?

I'm sure it could work.

That's your problem, doll. You're too easily satisfied.

That is so not my problem.

My problem is that I've never had the chance to pick out my own clothes.

To find my own style, discover who I really am.

This probably makes no sense to you.

No.

Actually, it took me a while to figure out who I was, too.

So how do you do it?

How do you choose who you are?

The key is to remember that... your clothes don't define you.

They define your image for the world.

Fashion can be an illusion.

A book jacket, describing the fun story inside.

You see?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think I do.

All right, then, doll.

Let's find you.

Wow.

You look, uh...

perfect.

You're welcome.

Hey, we picked up some supplies.

The fuck is she doing here?

You didn't tell her?

Tell me what?

Yeah, um, we're moving out.

Bugging out's more like.

What's that mean?

We had a visitor.

A visitor.

We found Jillian Salvius right here in our fucking home.

It's technically not our home.

Jillian Salvius?

Yeah. She was looking for you.

What? Why?

She didn't mention.

Somehow, she figured out we were at the party together,

so she came here to threaten us.

Now, we've gotta fly.

Thanks.

Zori, back off.

Well, let's just go then.

- Disappear, hit the next town. - Are you deaf and fashion-crippled?

Hey, easy now.

I prefer fashion-disabled.

You brought the heat down on us, chica.

You're radioactive.

I'm sorry, I didn't...

Listen...

you're my only friends right now.

You're the only people I know.

We're leaving.

And you are going to disappear.

Zori, enough! Okay?

What did we say when we started all this, huh?

"We're in it together," remember?

I remember.

We said it right before Little Miss Spotlight showed up.

We also promised not to take stupid risks,

to never get caught.

We had a good thing going here, JC.

You fucked it up by bringing her in. Now you bring her back here?

How stupid are you?

Stop! Stop it!

Stay out of this, you weirdo bitch!

Do not talk to her like that!

I said stop!

I'm sorry.

Ava!

All right. One more time.

Any luck recreating the effect?

No.

Any sign of the girl?

Our people are searching the city.

But... we did find Blair Macready...

at the bottom of a quarry.

Jesus.

Don't worry. We do have the situation contained.

Contained?

You think Cardinal Duretti is going to stop at Macready?

The Church has been killing heretics for centuries.

You know that.

I also know Duretti.

He's desperately protective of his reputation.

And his religion.

He thinks I'm going to open a portal to Heaven

and steal their business.

My point is, if you oppose them openly,

you could find yourself at war.

Looks a lot like war already.

Father, the Vatican is watching.

Yes, we can limp on, but without the Halo, we are effectively neutralized.

Ava will come back.

- You can't know that. - But I can have faith.

Vincent.

Mother Superion.

May I have a word?

Cardinal Duretti, please join us.

I trust you're squared away for your return to Rome?

My orders have changed.

Please have a seat.

Given the difficulties we are facing,

I have decided to postpone my return.

For the time being, I will remain here in an oversight capacity.

May I ask why?

To determine what it might take to save this operation.

I wasn't aware we needed saving.

Sister Shannon is dead.

You have failed to bring the new Warrior Nun to heel.

You have lost the sacred Halo.

Father Vincent, how would you characterize our current status?

As a period of transition.

How euphemistic.

We've faced grave trials before.

We'll face them again.

Father Vincent,

need I remind you that the Cardinal retains ultimate oversight of our Order?

I merely wished to point out that oversight is not the same as management.

The fact is this operation has fallen to its lowest point in decades.

I'm afraid I must agree.

Mother Superion, we go back many years.

We have experienced many trials together.

Please attempt to convince your colleague

that I am fighting desperately

to keep this sacred mission alive.

And I am the only ally you've got.

You've lost your friends and betrayed the nuns

who brought you back from the dead.

Impressive stuff, kid.

I should just go.

Skip town. Find a job.

Make a new life.

New friends.

What's keeping me here, anyway?

You're a woman now.

So, could you at least try to be anything but a burden to everyone around you?

But I am trying, Sister Frances.

Look what I taught myself to do.

Sure, what's the use of that?

Well, you know your little joke on how I never lift a finger around here?

It's the little victories.

What do you want?

I wanted to know how you're doing.

I'm... getting by.

Well, you've managed to rattle Zori.

I've never seen that before.

It's the little victories.

Any idea why Salvius could be after you?

I have a vague suspicion.

Do you want to talk about it?

No.

Zori's right.

I have to go.

I'm sorry I fucked things up for you and your friends.

It was really nice knowing you.

Hey, can I go with you?

What about your gang?

I think we might have come to the end of our road.

Those aren't real friends.

They're... partners to back you in a scam.

People you boost a couple of beers with, have a few laughs.

Why is he doing this?

Just to be nice?

Is he rescuing me again?

You're probably just buying more trouble, you know.

When you say trouble, I hear adventure.

So what? We just hop on a ferry and go where?

Where we want.

I'd rather be rescued than alone.

Okay.

Let's go.

Amen.

Sisters, we are at war.

The Lord, in His wisdom, has widened the scope of our directive.

But I recently saw Dr. Salvius...

in possession of a Divinium-plated device.

I suspect that she's melting down pieces of the Holy Armor in her lab.

This is blasphemy.

The Church will not see the destruction of our sacred relics...

for the personal enrichment of a heretic.

Where's Father Vincent?

Why is the Cardinal taking over?

What difference does it make?

Quiet.

It is imperative that we bring these artifacts

into our possession immediately.

Your Eminence.

Sister Lilith.

Your family has served this order faithfully since the 1500s,

providing six Halo-Bearers.

An impressive lineage.

But it must have been hard on you, that legacy.

Those expectations.

And then to have your destiny so rudely snatched away.

I accept the path before me.

As do I.

But I would suggest there is a difference between... meekly accepting one's path

and correcting a grave mistake.

Perhaps even a dire sin may be forgiven in the pursuit of the greater good.

Wouldn't you agree?

I would.

Sister Lilith,

if I may trust you

to keep this conversation strictly between us.

The OCS is under intense scrutiny from the Vatican.

We must get our house in order.

How might I help?

Track down the girl.

Bring the Halo back into our possession.

I'll find her,

but she'll never come back with me.

Not willingly.

Then I would suggest that her lack of loyalty...

is a betrayal to the Halo itself.

Perhaps our Order can only be restored...

by a new Halo-Bearer.

The proper Halo-Bearer.

Father?

Mary.

I dropped my tea.

I saw.

What can I do for you?

I have a confession to make.

I'm all ears.

No, I mean...

Yes, of course.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

It has been...

Well, you know how long it's been.

May the Lord be in your heart

and help you to confess your sins with true sorrow.

I feel no sorrow.

I killed a man who was gonna kill me.

Then your conscience is clear.

My conscience was never the issue.

And here's what we know.

Someone targeted Shannon directly.

And that means whoever did it knew Divinium could kill her,

and they had enough of it to rig the explosion.

And now Cardinal Duretti tells us that Salvius has been collecting

and studying Divinium.

Exactly.

Mary...

I know you and Shannon were close,

but you mustn't let anger cloud your judgment.

I found this in her room.

Part of her habit.

Embedded in the wall.

How could there be a hidden room in her chambers?

It's possible.

This old place has endless secrets.

So, if Shannon had knowledge that endangered her life,

wouldn't it make sense that she would keep it somewhere only she could find it?

A room she'd have to phase into.

I'm knocking down that wall.

No.

If Shannon was murdered,

we can't risk drawing unwanted attention.

We need Ava to phase into the room.

Any idea where to find her?

I suggest we ask a friend of hers.

Ungrateful little pig!

Do you not know there's children starving all over the world?

They probably had nuns cooking their meals.

Your birthday is coming up.

Ooh, I want a motorcycle.

And skis!

Oh, yeah, Jet Skis! Oh, mental high five!

Soon, next month, you'll age out of here.

A poor, crippled girl out on the street.

No money, and no way to make it.

What will become of you without me?

Are you all right?

It's going to be strange, leaving.

I've been here so long.

How'd you end up here?

Spain?

That's a...

A long story?

Short and unpleasant.

How about you?

Well, after my mom died,

I was supposed to go to university,

but... I figured the college fund they'd scraped together

should go towards her medical bills.

I just didn't care anymore about anything.

So, I lifted a businessman's wallet

and a pack of gum in the shuttle to the airport.

I went inside,

and I whipped the gum at the big board of airline destinations.

It hit Geneva,

and I bought a first-class ticket with the guy's gold card.

Oh, my God.

What if it had hit, like, Florida or something?

I had more gum.

Anyway, so I landed in Geneva,

took the train into the Alps for the ski season,

and that's where I met Zori and Chanel.

Um, we picked up Randall in Amsterdam.

That was about 18 months ago.

Yeah.

So, come on. Your turn.

Tell me Ava's story.

Not yet.

I'm still figuring it out.

West door.

Looks optimal.

That's, what, two and a half meters?

We need to clear three meters, or we'll fry.

Not a problem. Let's go!

What are we waiting for, Bea?

Shift change.

Patience.

Fine.

I can have patience.

I can be calm.

Come on, you stupid shift change!

Don't be nervous.

You'll do well tonight.

It's not that.

It's more that...

I'm just surprised the Cardinal sent us to break into a private business.

I know it's for Divinium and all, but I'm...

just surp...

It's just not what I was expected to be doing.

Yes.

It seems like he's changing the agenda of the OCS.

It's his agenda to change.

And if Jillian Salvius is melting down the Armor of Adriel,

that is a blasphemy.

Still, we're taking a risk here.

We could expose our sect, and for what?

For the protection of our interests.

Which interests, Lilith?

I noticed you were speaking with the Cardinal alone...

before we left.

Careful around this one, Camila.

She'll pry into all your business.

Only when it affects our business.

Does it?

Guards will be moving.

Let's go.

In this life, or the next.

In this life, or the next.

Where do you want to go? Casablanca? Tangiers?

Wow. We can lay low in Marrakesh.

I actually know a French dude who can get you a passport.

Endless possibilities for the first time in my life,

and a blazing hot guy by my side.

So why can't I leave?

Because something's wrong.

Something's unfinished.

What?

Something you said about leaving your friends.

I thought you didn't have any friends here.

No, I have one.

He's...

He's getting worse. Poor little lamb.

A poor, crippled girl out on the street.

What will become of you without me?

I know you killed yourself.

Oh, my God.

Ava, what's wrong?

Hey. What's going on?

Aren't we leaving?

Yes. Grab some tickets. It doesn't matter where.

I trust you, okay?

Where are you going?

I have to check in on a friend. He may need my help.

I'll be back. I promise!

Taxi!

- Did you put it in the report? - Mm-hmm.

Nice.

The target has been spotted at St. Michael's Orphanage.

Dispatch Team Four-A to pick her up.

They're talking about Ava. Maybe we...

On it.

Lilith.

Camila, you're up.

All teams report in. All teams report in.

We have intruders at the north gate. Over.

Hello?

You can't be in here.

Look, I don't want to hurt you.

And we appreciate that.

Move.

The Cardinal said the artifacts would be in the labs.

Where'd they go?

Through there, maybe.

Key cards won't work here.

See what you can do.

Yes!

We're out of time.

Take the others and go.

What about you?

I'll meet you back at the Cat's Cradle.

Go!

"You make known to me the path of life."

Ha! Ha!

No! Wait!

Ha!

Ha!

Ha!

I'll shoot. Don't think I won't.

Why would I doubt?

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Faith is my business.

Holy Mother.

Frances.

Stop.

Who is that?

Who are you?

Get out!

Who do you think you are?

Just a poor, crippled girl...

back from the streets.

Ava.

But you died.

Yes, I did.

You killed me.

I cared for you.

I sacrificed my life for you.

Until the day I was aging out of the system.

So you put me out of my misery.

You're a devil, sent from Hell.

No, Frances.

You're the devil here.

How many?

How many have you killed?

I lost count over the years.

So many souls.

So much pain.

You're a murderer!

No!

I'm a savior.

I released them from their pain.

I released them into the arms of God.

I freed their souls.

Give me the syringe, Frances.

Fine.

Ah!

Diego.

I'm so sorry you had to see that.

Are you okay?

You're an angel.

No.

You'll be okay now. All right?

All right? Now let's take you to Sister Emilene,

and she'll take good care of you, come on.

No, just go.

Just go before you get in trouble.

I'll miss you, Diego.

I'll see you again, in Heaven.

How the hell did this happen?

It was a nun.

A very fast nun.

We've got the footage.

I tried to warn you.

Without the Shield, I can't finish the machine.

I'll send a team to search the city.

Oh, no.

Not our men.

I want you to buy out Macready's operation under an alias.

You're taking on a private security company?

Well, given the fact that our current team has been taken out by what appears to be

a petite member of the clergy,

it strikes me they may not be up to the task.

And like you said...

the Church and I are at war.

The Shield of Faith.

There must have been other artifacts.

She's melted the rest of them down.

Into what?

Some sort of device.

A circle, about two meters in diameter,

connected to power generators,

computer systems.

The first ring was just a prototype.

It was unfinished.

I believe Dr. Salvius needs the Divinium content of the Shield

to complete it.

She seems to be applying technology in an attempt to...

activate the Divinium somehow.

Activate it to do what?

To open the gates of Hell.

I killed Frances.

Killer. Murderer.

No! It was self-defense.

She poisoned me.

Tried to kill me again.

She was gonna kill Diego, and I saved him.

So maybe it all balances out.

Maybe.

Hey, Ava.

Hello, Lilith.

I've been looking for you.

I told you.

I'm not going back.

It's all right.

I only need a part of you.
