Previously on "Midnight, Texas."

Bad things keep happening to Bobo

because our family is cursed.

The kind of dark magic that I warned you about.

As long as Bobo loves me, he's gonna die.

It's over.

My dad, he wasn't there when I was a kid.

The last person I let myself rely on was my stepmother.

- You're not turning. - I went to see Kai.

He cured me. I have to go.

It's time for me to leave Midnight.

How you holding up?

Creek and I have been through worse.

I didn't know that you just had a break up.

It's more of a... a break than a break up.

Well, I just thought because she moved away...

I think you and I should get those drinks.

It's a date.

Everyone is intimidated by a shark. Become a Card Shark AMERICASCARDROOM.COM

"Rev, her name is Mary. Please help her."

Okay, Mary. Okay.

Wait, wait, wait. Hold on.

You were driving around the country in that old RV

with your dead grandma inside? Doesn't everyone?

No.

I'm glad we're finally having those drinks.

I can't thank you enough for cleansing the hotel.

You gotta lick it first. The salt.

You all right?

I was just thinking how much I needed this.

- The tequila? - A night out.

With someone who is actually interested

in what I had to say.

- Wanna talk about it? - Look, don't get me wrong.

Kai's a good man.

But he's just got a demanding career.

And he's away a lot.

With a bunch of young, impressionable women.

- Lyric and Sequoia. - Yeah, to name a few.

It just makes me wonder what they're doing

when they're away working. Yeah, that's gotta be hard.

Well, no relationship is perfect?

- I'll drink to that. - Yeah, me, too.

Whoo!

You wanna talk about Creek?

Um, there's nothing to talk about, really.

Midnight wasn't for her.

But is it for you?

When people like me find a place like this,

we tend to stay.

Well, we're lucky to have you.

Yeah, well...

Um, hey. What's going on?

You need to get to the church now.

- Where's Chuy? - Paris.

Texas. At "Nail-A-Palooza."

Hey, Fij, we need to talk.

Really, it's not a good time.

My God.

What happened?

Well, II'm sorry to crash.

I just thought maybe I could help.

Did something attack her?

I believe it happened in childbirth.

Well, maybe her ghost can tell us something.

Nothing.

There's ligature marks on her wrist.

- From what? - Looks like shackles.

What about that burn mark on her arm?

Scars. My guess is a stun gun.

So she was being held captive?

Why come here?

She was looking for the Rev.

Any idea how he knew her?

No, but I can tell you the child's name.

Mary.

Whatl'm confused.

What the hell is she?

Hey, sweetie. Can we have a little talk?

Yeah?

- She wants to feed. - On what?

Meat.

I think we know why that woman was looking for the Rev.

Violent child birth, carnivore...

Growling, accelerated growth...

She's a were-tiger.

You really think it's safe bringing a were-tiger

into our home? She's just a toddler.

She's harmless, at least until the next full moon.

And that's weeks away.

It doesn't freak you out that she grew three years

in three minutes? It stops at 18.

What is she doing here?

It takes a village.

Where's the rest of the villagers?

They are trying to track down where the mother came from.

Joe is trying to track down the Rev.

Manfred and Patience are searching the truck.

Least I could do was take the night shift.

Yeah, but that's another thing.

Why did Manfred bring Patience with him?

Why does that bother you?

For one, her name's Patience.

I don't trust her. Fiji did a spell.

Her intentions are good.

When did you become so paternal?

We never talked about it before because we never had to.

But in my previous life, I wanted kids.

You ever think about it? Lem, my dad abandoned me.

And my stepmom pimped me out to support her pill addiction.

So, no, I haven't really felt warm and fuzzy about family.

I understand, but having a child

has a way of healing the past.

Yeah.

That is a hard no.

So you dumped the big lug but you didn't tell him

the real reason.

If I told him that it was a family curse,

he wouldn't stop loving me, which means with or without me,

hehe'd be...

A dead man walking.

Exactly.

So this way he'll suffer some heartbreak now.

But he'll still be alive.

Eventually move on.

So much for moving on.

Go home, Bobo.

Not until I get some answers.

One minute we're moving in together,

next minute you're breaking up with me?

It doesn't make any sense.

I told you Aunt Mildred said we're not meant to be together.

Thatthat is ridiculous.

Hey, if this has something to do with my...

My string of bad luck...

we could figure it out together.

We're soul mates.

Please don't give up on me, Fij.

I'm sorry, Bobo. It's over.

Well, I'm never giving up on you.

Looks like you're gonna need a new plan.

Any chance you have a crowbar?

Yeah.

We've got one in the storage room.

There's nothing inside her glove box.

Because this isn't her truck.

The ignition's hotwired.

I think she stole it to escape.

Well, a trapped woman will do desperate things.

Think this is Mary's dad?

Well, if it is, maybe he's still out there.

What was this poor woman running from?

Let's go find the bitch.

Come on.

Here. Yeah?

Yeah. That's...

ReallyOkay. Whoo!

Look. Yeah.

Your new best friend. Okay.

Lem.

I'm trying to get some sleep.

Well, I'm trying to keep my sanity.

Just try and do your best until sundown.

I won't make it till sundown.

You don't understand.

This place is a pigsty and, I mean,

she's all over the place. And then there's the questions.

She treats me like I'm Siri.

Olivia, She barely knows how to talk.

Not so much.

See, she's been watching cartoons all day,

and apparently she absorbs language as fast as she grows.

Yeah.

Lem?

Lem?

- Lem! - We're out of meat.

Holy...

Can I change?

It's too small.

And I hate purple.

- Here. - I don't like that.

Well, you can put this on or you can stay in that shirt.

Your choice.

Good choice.

Why am I growing so fast?

It's complicated.

Why?

- Because. - Because isn't an answer.

My God.

Olivia, where's my real mom?

Look, kid, I'm not gonna sugar coat this for you.

Your mom's gone.

Which means that you have to grow up.

Fast. Did you have to grow up fast?

Yeah, but for different reasons.

- What reasons? - It doesn't matter.

I know what it's like to lose your mom.

Mine died when I was nine.

Where was your dad?

That's a good question.

Look, The point is,

the only person you can depend on is yourself.

Are you mad at me?

No.

It's not you I'm mad at.

- Hey. - Brought you a coffee.

Thank you. Um...

I know I've been cold.

I don't understand.

Yeah, I know, thatthat's why I'm here.

You know, I've been thinking about us a lot.

We share so much.

Midnight. Friends.

I just want this to work for both of us.

So do I.

That's why we need to figure out

a way to consciously uncouple.

Well, I have no idea what that means,

but like I said before, I'm not giving up on us.

Yeah, that coffee tastes funny.

It's artisanal.

Drink up.

All relationships face obstacles.

And if we want this badly enough,

then we can find a way to make it work.

That's what people who love each other...

That's what they do. They...

- They, um... - Bobo.

You need toto let me go.

You have to forget about me.

NNo, II couldl could never forget about you.

You have to.

And the tincture I put in your coffee is gonna make you do it.

WhatWait, what? WhWhat are you t...

Um...

I...

What was I saying? I'm sorry, Bobo.

It was the only way to save your life.

Um, no, I'm sorry.

I completely lost my train of thought.

Who are you, again?

I am Fiji Cavanaugh.

It's nice to meet you.

Well, it's good to meet you, Fiji Cavanaugh.

Looks like you've done this before.

Skills of a misspent youth.

What in the world are those?

Shock collars.

And I don't think they're for pets.

Not my kind of party.

Django, I thought that bitch'd be in there.

I don't care what you think.

Look what some asswipe did to your lock.

Damn.

I'll bet the bitch had the baby.

Then let's find the damn kid.

Yep.

We gotta warn Olivia.

Mary?

Mary?

Yeah?

We got trouble.

A couple of thugs looking for Mary.

Playtime's over.

Who'sNo!

Stop! No!

Get away from me!

Mary.

Mary!

Mary?

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's me.

Olivia.

I don't know what happened to me.

I'm so sorry.

Olivia, um...

Here.

Here you go.

All right, come with me, okay?

Any luck contacting the Rev?

No. I followed every lead I could find.

- Nada. - I don't understand.

- What happened? - Me, neither.

It doesn't make any sense.

Iflf Mary's a were-tiger, how can she turn when it's not

a full moon?

Blame it on puberty.

I did a little research.

Apparently when a were is in development,

their cycles are all out of whack.

Just like in humans. It's hormonal.

And I thought junior high was tough.

It must have been scary for her to turn like that.

Damn.

Looks like we've got some 'splaining to do.

Hotel guests heard screams. Called 911.

What happened to those two men is just awful.

Nobody saw anything?

Just looks like an animal attack to me, officer.

Always does.

Must be some real vicious animals here in Midnight.

Must be.

Load 'em up.

I wanna get outta here. Pronto.

What are you looking at, dinlo?

Romanichal?

Yeah, I'm a gypsy. What's it to you?

Manfred.

Were you talking to someone?

One of their ghosts.

But he just got away.

We gotta get to the morgue.

- What's wrong with me? - Nothing.

Am I some kind of freak or something?

No. You're special.

And you're smart.

And you're very strong.

But special means different.

And I don't wanna be different.

But being different is really cool.

Yeah. He should know.

Olivia's right.

You'll understand when you're older.

Then why did those men wanna hurt me?

I don't know.

Some people are just... They're just bad.

And what's important is to surround yourself

with people that are good.

- Like you guys? - Yeah.

Like us.

We're gonna take care of you.

We'll make sure that no one hurts you.

Again.

Thank you, Olivia.

Okay. Let's get some rest.

- That felt... - Good.

Hey, here you go.

When do you think I'll grow again?

Well, if you keep downing burgers like that,

you'll be as tall as me by dinner.

Hey.

Don't we know each other?

Nope.

I just have one of those faces.

One of those beautiful faces.

Look.

I live alone with my cat, and I like it that way.

Well, that's one lucky pet.

Come on.

Can't blame a guy for trying.

Are you two into some kind of weird role playing now?

Hardly.

I found out there's a curse on my family.

Anyone I find real love with dies.

Wait, what?

I had to make Bobo forget me.

I put a tincture in his coffee.

I figured if he doesn't know me,

he can't love me and then if he doesn't love me,

he won't die.

So you "Eternal Sunshined" him?

I didn't have a choice.

Let's just hope the spell's strong enough.

Wait, did he forget about us, too?

No. Just me.

But what if he falls in love with you again?

What if it's fate?

CanCan we talk about something else?

Like, how is Mary doing?

She's great.

I'm the one that's a mess.

I keep telling her I'll protect her.

I don't know what I'm protecting her from.

You think someone else is after her?

No.

I mean, II have that covered, but I am worried about why

someone would be after her.

I'm looking for my daughter, Sheila Barrone.

Have you seen my daughter?

No. WhWhat happened?

II'm so sorry.

Your daughter died.

- No. - In childbirth.

No, no, no, no.

- I'm sorry. - What about the baby?

Grandma?

How is this even possible?

I know it's hard to believe.

It's just...

It's a lot to take in.

Last week my Sheila was still pregnant.

And now my granddaughter's a teenager.

Because she's a werewolf? Actually, a weretiger.

And why is someone after her?

Who are these men?

We don't know. Yet.

But she's safe here till we figure it out.

This is all so crazy.

I just can't believe it.

And yet you look so much like my Sheila.

You must be my granddaughter.

Can you tell me more about my mom and dad?

Fiji and I will get refills and let you two catch up.

When was this taken?

When they first got married.

And they were on a road trip.

They went to Canada because your mother

had always wanted to go.

I want you to do one of those magical DNA tests.

Lipstick from Grace's mug and a hair from Mary's sweater.

I think you're letting your personal feelings

get in the way.

Mary's got a family. That's a good thing.

One photo and a sob story doesn't prove anything.

People are after her.

And you think that that little old lady's one of them?

Do the test.

All right.

Hello?

Can somebodyCan somebody help me?

Can you help me with my car?

I'm sorry, ma'am, but I can't leave my desk.

Well, somebody's gotta give me a jump.

My battery's deader than road kill.

As much as I'd love to jump you,

itit's against state regulation for me

to abandon my post.

If I'm late for court again, they're gonna take custody

of my twins.

And Jayden and Brayden, they need their mama.

- Where's your car? - Over here.

Thank you so much.

Damn, it's cold in there.

What are you doing here? Nice to see you, too.

Why were you after Sheila?

And what did you want with that little girl?

Why should I tell you?

Because...

I'm one of you.

Bernardo Clan?

You got it.

Play your cards right,

I can help you cross over.

Piss off, bengalo.

You know how long a John Doe can lie in that drawer?

You think you're cold now?

Wait till you've been on that slab for six months.

Okay!

I'll tell you.

My client runs a traveling fight ring.

Super underground. With supernaturals.

Is that why you wanted the girl?

She came from good stock.

Her old man's a prized fighter.

Big were-tiger.

And his owner wanted the girl back.

Who's the owner?

Baddest bitch around.

Hey. What'd you find out?

Grace is definitely Mary's grandmother.

You okay?

Just because someone's blood doesn't mean they have

your best interests in mind.

Trust me, I know.

- Yeah? - Gypsies are after Mary.

They run a supernatural fight ring.

Force them to fight to the death.

It's run by this evil old woman named...

- Grace? - Yeah.

How'd you know?

You get used to the smell.

Hideous, aren't they?

The only way to control them is their collars.

Silver for were, gold for banshees.

And iron for demons.

Why are you doing this?

'Cause you can turn a pretty penny when you get them

to battle to the death.

Is that what you're gonna do to me?

But I'm your granddaughter.

Your mother was a traitor.

She shacked up with one of these animals

and defiled our gypsy bloodline.

When I found out what she did, I locked her up.

Just like them.

But she escaped.

There will be no escape for you, Mary.

Mary.

Is that you?

I'm Mike. Your father.

Dad?

No!

I'm so sorry.

We're gonna need a distraction.

You feel like going in the ring?

Nothing I like better than a little rage in the cage.

That should give you and Joe cover to sneak in,

find Mary, and get out.

Not quite sure what I bring to the game.

Honey, there's nothing more distracting than a pretty girl.

All right.

You work here.

Well, it's myit's my shop.

I have a feeling you already knew that.

You got me.

Full disclosure, I was asking around town

about you.

Well, the shop's closed.

Well, the door was open.

I'm sorry, Bobo, but I don't have time.

I'm working on a protection potion for Mary.

- Well, I can help with that. - No.

You remember.

Fiji, we...

We wereWe arein love.

Hey, you gotta know somebody to get in.

Bernardo Clan.

Wanna see my tattoo?

Yeah? Right here.

Better yet, why don't I show you on the way out?

Trust me, it'll be worth the wait.

- I'll be right here. - All right, baby.

Hey.

I have a new fighter here.

Ready to take on anyone.

Okay. Once more with gusto.

Yeah, you might just wanna lean into it.

I've got a grand that says my vamp here

can take down any of you!

Hey, who wants a piece of this?

He's a vampire?

We never get vamps around here.

How'd you manage to capture a vampire with no shock collar

or silver chains?

Well, you don't need collars and chains when you know how

to break down their spirit.

You got that vamp on lock!

You're on.

All right, let's do this!

Yeah!

Yeah! Come on!

Whoo-hoo!

I think we need to up the stakes.

A vampire versus an unturned were,

that's not a fair fight!

Now that's more like it! The reigning champ returns.

I know where Mary is.

Mary!

Olivia.

We're getting you out of here.

Are you okay?

- I'm sorry I left with her. - It's not your fault.

We have got to go.

Wait. I can't leave without my dad.

Come on! I got real money on the line!

Lem!

Lem?

Lem! Hammer time.

Vamp, Vamp, Vamp, Vamp!

We don't have much time.

Let's get out of here.

Dude, we gotta let them out.

They're victims. We all are.

Please.

Get the hell out of here!

Or I'll push this button until they all fry!

Okay! Okay.

Get that bitch!

Get her!

Thank you so much.

You're safe now.

Dad, we have to go back to Midnight.

We'll be safe there.

Yeah, actually, sweetheart, I was kinda hoping

you'd come with me.

There's a were safe haven in Nevada.

They'll protect us.

Can you come with us?

Midnight's our home.

But, you and your dad are welcome there anytime.

Yeah.

But right now you need to be with your dad.

If I had a second chance with my father,

I wouldn't think twice.

Remember what I told you?

Girls like me and you...

We're strong.

And special.

Yeah.

That was amazing.

Another day in Midnight.

I've just never seen people support each other the way

you all do.

Yeah, we're kind of like family.

Kinda? No.

No, you are family.

You are amazing, Manfred Bernardo.

You're not so bad yourself.

I cal can't.

- Um... - Of course.

- Um... - It's been a long day.

I'ma get some sleep. I'll sl'll see you around.

Okay, goodnight.

Unacceptable.

It's only temporary.

I am so sorry, Bobo.

I really didn't have a choice.

It's the only way to protect you.

But I promise it's only until I figure out what to do

about this curse.

Please don't hate me.

Did you mean what you said?

About giving your dad a second chance?

No, not in a million years.

It's okay to cry.

I'm fine.

I miss her, too.

It's so stupid.

Forwhattwo days?

I don't know but it's like we had a family.

It's just been such a long time since I had that.
