"I, who live
in the shelter
of the Most High,

"who abide
in the shadow
of the Almighty,

"will say to the Lord..."

Annie.

Are you in there?

Annie, honey,
can I come in?

Sweetie?

Annie, open the door,
please?

Annie, let me in.

Open the door, Annie.

Annie.

Let me in, Annie!

Annie!

Let me in! Let me in!

Annie,
let me in, Annie!

Let me in!

Your mother,
she was schizophrenic?

These sessions
are mandatory for
all staff, Sister Ann.

My mother struggled
with depression.

And, yes,

she was eventually
diagnosed with
schizophrenia.

But even as a child,
I knew it was...

more.

More?

I didn't have
a name for it.

Every night,
she would come
into my room...

Sometimes she was
my mother.

Beautiful.

Loving.

And sometimes
she wasn't.

She'd comb my hair.

She'd hum that song.

She'd hurt me.

And then she'd hold me
and cry and say

the voice inside her head
made her do it.

I'm so sorry, Ann.

Abuse at the hands of
someone you trust is...

My mother was incapable
of hurting me,

she loved me.

It was the thing
inside her.

She was possessed.

Ah, look who it is.

Morning, Steve.
Good morning.
Thanks.

You make a good point.

But no, we are not
more sinful today than
we were in the past.

The human heart
has never changed.

Sister Ann.

What has changed

is that there are
more possessions
reported today

than at any other time
in history.

We are losing a war
that has been raging
for centuries.

We must
hold the line,

fight for every soul.

During
the Spanish Inquisition,

the Catholic Church
was responsible for
the torture and death

of thousands
of so-called heretics.

Many were simply
those suffering from

psychotic, mood, neurotic
and personality disorders.

The very structure
you're sitting in

was built
in the late 18th century

in response
to a rise in the occult.

The clergy would drag
women suspected of
practicing dark arts

down to
the baptismal well to
free them of evil spirits.

Countless were drowned
in holy water

till eventually,
the practice was stopped.

Sorry, Doctor.

Are you denying that
there are legitimate
cases of possession?

I've been here
long enough
to have seen things

that I can't
account for.

But one thing I do know
is the mind is
incredibly powerful.

And it loves
to play tricks on us.

To distort
our reality.

Now, thankfully,
the Church's approach has
evolved over the centuries.

And that's where
psychiatrists like myself
come in.

The Vatican's new guidelines
require anyone
suspected of possession

to undergo in-depth physical
and psychological evaluations

before being approved
the Rite of Exorcism.

How are we doing
today, Clark?

Anything we can
get you to eat?

Let's give
this applesauce
a go, huh?

Hey.

There we go.

Oh, you like
the applesauce.

I'll have to
remember that.

I've ordered
a full blood panel

as I do with
all of our
new patients.

She was brought in
for assessment
after having seizures,

muscle spasms,
incontinence
and hypersalivation.

Natalie's mother
believes that

she is being possessed
by some sort of
evil entity.

And I believe
that the test results
will prove otherwise.

She's not
as scary as she looks.

She can hear you.

Gentlemen,
shall we?

- Thank you.
- Thanks, Sister.

You didn't
eat much.
Mmm.

I like your, uh...

dog?

It's a train.

That has a tail.

It's an abstract.

Well, then,

you're officially
a starving artist.

I don't know
why they don't
give you dessert.

Thanks.

What is it?

Oh, some sort of
nougaty goodness.

What's nougat?

I don't know.

It's really good.

You're my favorite
person here.

Well, uh...

Us girls,
we gotta stick together
in this place.

Yeah.

Annie.

Annie, let go.

Hey, Natalie.

Hi.

Are you feeling okay?

I don't like
that room.

How did you get out
of that room?

I wanted to find you.

Nougat is a family
of confections

made with sugar
and honey,

roasted nuts
and whipped egg whites.

I looked it up.

Did you know that
candies have families?

I do now.

Shall we head back
to your room?

Okay.

Annie.

I'm here with you.

Elena had entered
the terminal stage
of possession here.

She would tear
her own clothes,

lick her own urine,
eat coal.

In the terminal stage,

the possessed reaches
the extremity of physical
and spiritual corruption.

Deliverance
is still possible, but...

death is imminent.

Sadly for Elena,

death came first.

Demons
are Lucifer's
foot soldiers.

They know no fatigue,
no fear, no doubt.

When you enter the room
of the possessed,

you are walking
onto a battlefield.

The Devil will
try to distract you.

Sow doubt in God's word.

Always remember,

the word of God

is your most
powerful weapon.

But the Rite is not just
a series of prayers.

It's a dance.

We have to feel
the cadence of the battle.

Work with our partners.

Understand the correct
entry points for attack.

Regrettably, the priests
made fatal errors
in Elena's exorcism.

What would you
have done differently?

My mother
talked about hearing
that voice inside.

She said the voice
didn't really want her.

It wanted me.

Because I was one
of God's chosen soldiers.

Sister.

Hi.

I'm reviewing
some cases

and there seems
to be some gaps
in the directory.

The records
are entered directly
into the main archive.

There are
no gaps.

And what about
the terminal cases?

Those are classified.

You summoned me, Sister?

I understand that Sister Ann
has taken it upon herself

to attend
another one
of your classes.

I wouldn't
say "attend."

More like "infiltrate."

She's very light
on her feet.

The rules of the Church
are quite clear, Father.

Only male clergy
may be enrolled
in exorcism training.

For now.

You should be
grateful, child.

In years past,
even patient care
in exorcism school

was restricted
to priests.

Now here you stand.

But what does it matter
if I'll never be able
to perform an exorcism?

Is a nurse
of no benefit
to her patients

because she can't
perform surgery?

Female surgeons
were once unthinkable.

Somebody had to be
the first.

Yes. Well,

healing the flesh
is a very different
undertaking

than healing
the spirit.

As members
of the Catholic
community of women,

it is not our place
to free these souls
from their tormentors.

We are here
to comfort,

to pray,
and show mercy.

That is all.

You may return
to your duties now.

Yes, Sister.

Father.

She wants
to learn.

And I want to
protect her.

Clark, how do you
know that song?

We've been waiting
for you.

Your mother
has a pretty voice.

Hello, can anybody
hear me?

Let me in.

No!

No!

I've seen enough.

This demon appeared
to go after Sister Ann
without cause.

Provoked by her
mere presence.

For her own protection,

and that of
others here
at St. Michael's,

we should
send her back
to the convent.

Evil isn't confined
to the walls of
this institution.

I'd feel better
having her here.

I can work with her.

Keep an eye on her.

Work with her?
In what sense?

I'd like to teach her,
Your Eminence.

That's against
all precedent,

all doctrine.

Nothing formal.

Just enough to
protect herself

and others.

I'm not sure
of the exact nature
of it.

But this
relationship
she has...

it's personal.

But, Father,

we all have a personal
relationship with God.

Not with God, Sister.

With the Devil.

The citadel has fallen.

The walls
have crumbled.

Black smoke
blots out the sun.

Because, as some of you
may already know,

we have
a female student
in the class

as an observer.

Sister Ann will be
accompanying us

on our rounds
for the rest
of the term.

Now pay close attention.

The nuances of our craft
require active learning
to truly understand.

So, group one,

let's descend into
the mouth of hell,
shall we?

Clear your minds of
all thoughts but prayer.

You must remain resolute

despite the distractions.

It can be the difference
between life and death

for both you...

and the afflicted.

The subject
is a recent admission.

Dr. Peters'
preliminary diagnosis
was idiopathic epilepsy.

The subject
was moved here
to observation

when she began
to exhibit behavior

that Dr. Peters
couldn't explain.

Natalie is
10 years old.

We have to act quickly
to halt any further
escalation.

I need two volunteers.

I'll go, Father.

Very well.

You will take
the lead.

Who would like to
assist Father Dante?

I will.

Father Raymond.

The armor of God.

Each of you
have performed
a simple exorcism

every time
you baptized a child.

Cleansing them
of their original sin.

That was baptism
by holy water.

This is baptism
by fire.

Remember,
the name "Lucifer"

derives from
the Latin term
"lucem ferre."

"Bringer of light."

The Devil will
shine his light

into the darkest,
deepest recesses
of your mind,

exposing your
innermost secrets.

Your deepest pain.

He will use this pain
to break into your soul.

You must look past the girl.

She is as much demon
as victim.

In Nomine Patris,
et Filii,
et Spiritus Sancti.

Amen.
Amen.

Christ, have mercy.

Strike terror,

Lord, into the beast
now defiling this
innocent child.

Stretch out your
mighty hand, Lord.

And cast this demon
out of your servant,
Natalie Hope.

We cast you out.

♪ I can't hear you ♪

No!

Stay far from
this creature of God.

For it is He
who commands you.

He who flung
you headlong...

No.
Oh, shit.

Father...

Pray. Pray together.

For it is He
who commands you.

Oh, he who flung you headlong
from the heights of Heaven

into the depths
of Hell!

Una chica.

- Don't stop.
- Commit to the words.

For it is He
who commands you.

He who flung you
headlong from the
heights of Heaven

into the depths
of Hell.

Into the depths
of Hell.

It is He
who commands...

Let me in!

Lord, repel
this Devil's powers.

By the incarnation,
passion, resurrection,

and ascension of
our Lord Jesus Christ,

I command you
to depart
this child of God.

Father.

Say something.
Say something,
Father.

Natalie.

Natalie, can you hear me?

Sister Ann,
don't deviate
from the scripture.

Natalie.

Natalie, I'm here.

I'm here with you.

I'm scared.

Natalie, I'm here.

Go!

Father.

Give place,
abominable creature.

Give way to Christ.

You are a shield
about me,

my glory,

the lifter
of my head.

Sister, with me now.

I cast you forth
into outer darkness

where everlasting ruin
awaits you.

In the name of
our Lord Jesus Christ,
I cast you out.

Hey.

Hi, sweetie.
It's okay.

She's okay.

I have to start wearing
adult diapers to class.

You and me
both.

To you.

Hey, who knows what
would've happened if you
hadn't stepped in there.

It's not a sin to take
a little victory lap, right?

No, I thought
I got through to her.

For...

a moment.

- But...
- Hey, you did.

And it weakened
the demon

'cause Natalie was
still in there somewhere.

I don't know.

If Father Quinn
hadn't stepped in...

You okay?

Uh, yeah.

I think this was
meant for me.

Why?

My baby sister,
Emilia.

She, uh...

She was raped.

She got pregnant.

I'm so sorry.

She, uh...
She lost the baby.

She's been afflicted
ever since.

Hi.

How are you feeling?

Kinda sleepy.

This isn't my room.

No.

This is a special room.

I had a bad dream.

I'm sorry.

Can you tell me what
you remember about it?

I was in a room.

It was kinda
like this room.

And...

there were people.

They were all yelling.

Were they yelling at you?

Couldn't understand
most of them.

I think they were talking
to someone else.

Who?

The voice.

Whose voice?

He tells me things.

Promises me things.

Sometimes...

he shows me things.

They're bad.

It's all right.

You can tell me.

You were there.

But...

you weren't yelling.

Natalie?

Natalie wasn't
cleansed, was she?

We're not sure.

The demon may
have undertaken
temporary refuge.

Will the Rite be
administered again?

The girl
will remain in
observation.

If she escalates
further,

it may be beyond
our capacity
to deal with.

She'll be transferred
to the Vatican.

You mean
she might be
a terminal case?

I want to stay
with her, Father.

I've made
a connection.

That's exactly
the problem.

The exorcist
is a confessor
and an intercessor,

not a friend.

But what if
I can help her?

Terminal cases
are the most complex
and delicate we face.

They can only be
handled by the most
skilled exorcists.

If you want
to help her,

pray.

Your power
is in the spirit.
Not the flesh.

She may still make
a full recovery.

Sister, Cardinal Matthews
is requesting this urgently.

So, what happened
when the soldiers

came to your house
that day?

It was me
and my two
younger sisters.

They said
one of us could go.
I ran.

I didn't wait
for anything.
I just ran.

You ran away and...

and the soldiers
shot your sisters?

Yes.

Mila, tell me about
the voice that you heard.

I kept hearing
those shots.

The demon spoke to me
in the sound
of those gunshots.

He took control.

Okay.

But then you
were cleansed,
right?

You received
the Rite of Exorcism.

And you were healed.

"Healed"?

I kept cutting,

but the body
is still here.

You did that
to yourself?

I prayed for
God's forgiveness.

I prayed and I prayed,
but deep down I knew.

I didn't deserve
forgiveness.

My mother felt guilt
for what she had done.

I was alone with her.

Annie?

Where are you?

Annie?

Annie!

What you're describing
is terrifying.

It's traumatic.

Memories like these
are so hard to face.

Your mother,
she eventually...

She took her own life.

And you felt
responsible for her death.

That's a common
trauma response, Ann.

For the victim
to feel shame.

And the only way
to disarm these memories

is to drag them
into the light.

Confront the trauma.

What're you
doing down here?

What's going on
with Natalie?

They restricted
access.

Why?

No idea.

Maybe they're
transferring her.

Father Dante.

Hi.

Right.

Father.

You can't let Natalie
be transferred.

I've seen the records.

The mortality rate
for terminal cases
is over 90%.

Our faith
does not reside
in statistics, Sister.

No. No, it doesn't.

But I don't think
that it resides strictly

in the word
of the Rite either.

No?

The Rite has
stood for millennia

as the received
word of God.

And you have notes?

Where did you read
these records anyway?

I know,
I broke the rules.

But there is a lonely,
frightened little girl
at the center of this.

You tread on
precarious ground

when you make
this fight personal.

But it is
personal, Father.
That is the point.

You said yourself
that exorcism
is about nuance.

And yet,
we have never
even considered it

from the victim's
perspective.

So what does
the demon want?

It wants to dehumanize
the possessed

and make them feel
unworthy of God's love.

Our goal should be to
connect with the possessed

and help them fight
for their own humanity.

Let them know
we see them,
not just the demon.

Is it not possible
that there are cases,
unique cases,

that the Rite
cannot account for?

What makes
these cases unique?

Cases where the victim's
shame and guilt
are so profound

that they invite
the demon in.

And they want to suffer.

They surrender control.

So where does
Natalie's shame
come from? Hmm?

She is
an innocent child.

I don't know.

Lucifer was once
the most beautiful and
powerful angel in Heaven.

But he became prideful
and God cast him out.

That...
That's it, Sister.

I believe in you,
more than you can imagine.

But you
have to understand
the danger here.

If you shun the Church
to follow your own will,

you will find yourself
wandering in the darkness.

Alone.

Father.

I heard what you said.

They can't
let Natalie
be transferred.

She won't
come back.
I agree.

And we don't
have much time.

What do you mean?

So, what if there was a way
that you could prove to them
that you're right.

Your sister.

She's possessed, Ann.
I know she is.

And her episodes just
keep getting worse.

I tried to have her
admitted here, but...

it's complicated
for the Church.

Because of her baby.

She's devout.
Ann, you talk
about guilt.

She had to make
an impossible
decision.

And it's eating away
at her.

She let the demon in.

You want to attempt
an unauthorized exorcism?

Not alone.

Please, Ann.

My sister
doesn't have
much time left.

And I saw you
with Natalie.

You have a gift.

You connect
with the possessed.

You see past the demon
and into the person.

If you really believe
what you're saying...

Natalie is still possessed.

And she's still alive.

Hi, Mama.

Mi hijo.

My mother says she's been
asleep for three days.

Are you ready?

Are you?

Chiquita, this is...

This is Ann.
She's here
to help you. Okay?

Emilia.

Can you hear me?

It won't stop.

The voice?

It has no power over you
that you don't give it.

Okay.

"Blessed is the one
whose transgressions
are forgiven,

whose sins
are covered."

"Blessed is the one
whose sin the Lord
does not count against them,

"and in whose spirit
is no deceit."

You know what it feels like
to have something growing
inside you.

Don't you, Sister?

Yes.

At least
this bitch knew

who the baby's
father was.

Help me!

Please! Please!

Emilia, listen to me.

Focus on the sound
of my voice.

She can't hear you.

Emilia, the demon
preys on
the most devout

because our guilt,
it is the deepest.

Ann...

Open your eyes.

This flesh... This flesh
is yours. It is not his.

You don't
have to hide
from it anymore.

I know you wanted
the baby to be gone.

You wanted it
to be over.

Like you did?

Yes.

Ann...
I know despair.

How shame gets in
and rips you open.

It's always there
and it just grows.

Ann.

Psalm 86:5.

"For you, O Lord,
are good and forgiving,

"abounding
in steadfast love
to all who call..."

He can never shut out
God's love for you.

Don't hide from it.

All of the pain.

Follow me
into the pain.
We'll go there together.

"For you, O Lord,
are good and forgiving..."

Confess to yourself
and you will be forgiven.

How did you do...

It's over.

Emilia, you're free.

You freed yourself.

That tattoo
above your wrist...

is that a gang thing?

It was, yeah.

I got pregnant
when I was 15.

Was too wasted
to remember
who the father was.

They kicked me out
of my foster home.

And by God's grace,
I found my way
to the shelter

run by the
Sisters of St. Mary.

And they
took me in.

Cared for me.

What about the baby?

The sisters arranged
for her adoption.

I only held her
for a moment.

But I, uh...

I've carried her with me
ever since.

I abandoned her.

And I pray that...

that God can forgive me.

"For you, O Lord,
are good...

"and forgiving."

Hey.

He already has.

Cardinal Matthews
is calling for you.

Yes, Sister.

Your Eminence.

I'm afraid I have
some tragic news.

Father Dante's sister,
Emilia, took her own life
last night.

What?

Emilia's mother
reported to the parish

that you attempted
an exorcism on her.

Is this true?

I'm so sorry.

Then it is true.

Yes, I thought that I...

You thought
you knew better
than a church

that has stood
for thousands
of years?

Of course not.

You overestimated
your competence

and stepped right
into the Devil's snare.

Please. It wasn't
Sister Ann's fault.

I was desperate.

You weren't remotely
prepared to take on
an exorcism like this.

Demons retreat

to avoid
further assault.

It was a deception.

Not a defeat.

You've both
betrayed the trust
the Church put in you.

That I advocated for.

I think...

I think it's best
if I return to my place
with the Sisters of St. Mary.

Come in.

Thank you
for seeing me.

Well,

this is grim.

Although, apparently,
the abbess,
Benedetta Carlini,

spent the last 35 years
of her life in a 6-by-6 hole
in the ground.

On her dying day,
she said she never had
a moment's regret.

I didn't realize
you were so familiar

with the lexicon
of Catholic mystics.

I'm an academic.

I like to hear
both sides.

I heard about
what happened.

Father Dante's sister.

I really thought
I'd gotten through
to her.

I came...

to give you this.

"Brain, mind, and body
in the healing of...

"trauma."

I know you're
a one book kinda gal,

but I thought
you might enjoy some
light exile reading.

Ann.

I've had patients that...

no matter
how hard I tried,

I couldn't save them.

You might be
relieved to know that
Natalie was released.

What?

She was cleared
after observation,

and she went home
with her mother
this morning.

You're on a new path.

It's natural
to feel lost.

Keep going.

Father Dante.

Sister Ann.

What're you
doing here?

Something's happened
at the school.

Natalie.

Walk with me.

She suffered
a sudden relapse

and they
rushed her back.

A priest and two
orderlies were killed.

I will pray for their souls
and for Natalie's deliverance.

She's a terminal case.
She'll be transferred
back to Rome.

No, we don't have
time for that.

She has hours left,
not days.

They moved her to
the catacombs beneath
the main building.

They still have
holding cells there.

Holding cells?

Part of
the original structure.

They have her
totally sealed away from
the rest of the academy.

I don't think
they're willing
to risk more lives

to attempt
another exorcism.

Why?

Why come
and tell me this?

Because she gave me this.

I got this
when I first arrived here
at St. Mary's.

And I wrapped it
around the wrist
of my little girl

the day I gave her away.

Father.

Natalie is
my daughter.

The demon
is using her

to get to me.

I can't let her
suffer for me.

I won't.

Most glorious Prince
of the heavenly armies,
Michael the Archangel.

Defend us in battle

against
principalities
and powers.

Against the rulers

against the spirits

Amen.

Is that
holy water?

Yeah.

It's the baptismal well.

...spirits,
demonic forces,

satanic powers,
principalities,
along with...

...air, water, fire...

Turn around.

Right now.

Raymond, move.

Are you insane?

She killed
your sister.
She did not.

Move.

Don't act
like a stranger.

You've got my invitation.

Natalie.

Let them leave.

Natalie.

Ann.

Natalie.

Natalie.

♪ I can't hear you ♪

Raymond.

Raymond!

Raymond.

No.

Why did you
leave me, Mommy?

I was so scared
and alone
without you.

You're not Natalie.

I know who I'm talking to.

Then be honest
for once.

Why did you
give her away?

I was 15.
No.

That's not it.

What happened
to your mother?

She sacrificed herself
to save you.

That's why
you couldn't be
a mother.

You couldn't
be responsible
for another life.

But I can now.

Ann. Ann!

You win.

I love you
so much, Mommy.

Natalie.

Ann!

Run.

What's happening?

Natalie.
I'm Father Dante.

We're gonna play a game
of hide-and-seek. Okay?
I need you to go through here.

Come on.

Okay. Listen to me.

I need you to find
the very best hiding spot
that you can, okay? Go.

Go.

Come on.

Come on.

Ann.

Ann, I know
you're in there,
okay?

I need you
to listen to me,
okay?

Just let
Natalie go, please?

Let her go.

Don't be scared.

Annie.

Annie.

Let go, Annie.

Let go, Annie.

Annie, let go.

Annie, let go.

I'm here with you.

My mother
never stopped fighting
the demon from within.

Right until the end.

Let go.

I'm here with you.

down to hell.

Your power
is in the spirit.

Not the flesh.

You're on
a new path.

Keep going.

You don't have to
hide from it anymore.

All of the pain.

Let go, Annie.

Ann.

Ann.

Ann.

If you follow me,
we can finish up
the paperwork.

Of course.

Hi.

I know it doesn't
seem like it now,

but when
you are home

with your family
and your friends,

you'll forget
all about this place.

But I don't want
to forget about you.

Then don't.

Your train.

I will treasure this.

Thank you.

Without your intercession,
the enemy would've won
this battle.

You clearly have
an important role to play
in the Church, Sister Ann.

We've discussed where your
talents might be best placed.

So, we are rewarding you
an academic research fellowship
at the Vatican.

A fellowship
in exorcism.

Thank you.

It's an
unprecedented honor.

We think you could make
a difference there, Sister.

Thank you...
for everything.

Mmm.

You know,
technically speaking,

you're not the first
female exorcist.

St. Catherine
of Siena?

Indeed.

She died in 1380.

Right.

So the first
in seven centuries.

I'll take it.

If I may give you
one last
word of advice?

Of course, Father.

Be careful.

Now that
you know the Devil,

the Devil knows you.

The overnight low
near 47th.

Rain tapering off
tomorrow afternoon
followed by...

As for your weather today,

with the winds
out of the southeast
at 12 miles per hour,

it's currently
58 degrees.

Annie.

Annie.
