Original subtitles

Previously, on "Midnight, Texas"...

What you got there? - Everything I need

to pledge my loyalty to the Children of Theophilus.

The writing carved into the skin,

it's definitely Syriac.

Can you translate? - I know Kai is stockpiling

supernatural powers. - It's me.

I missed you today, darlin'. - Thought you were

calling Manfred but you called me.

That's not me. - You weren't just

hunting together, were you?

Go find your husband. - How would you feel

if I reached into your life and snuffed out

everything you love?

Who did this to you?

Kai.

Get out here and face me, you son-of-a-bitch.

Kai. - Manfred?

Step back. - What's going on?

Get back. - You got something you want

to say to me? - You bastard.

You killed her.

The hell's wrong with you?

Are you crazy? - You threatened me

and now she's gone.

You have no idea who you're messing with.

I can take your powers right now.

No. No. No, Kai.

No.

Are you all right? - What the hell's going on?

He killed her. He killed Creek.

What? - Wait, wait.

What did you do? - I didn't kill anyone.

Yes, you did.

You're a dead man.

I'll kill you.

This isn't over.

Far from it.

I remember the day Creek and her family

moved to town.

There hadn't been a child in Midnight...

well, ever.

And then...

there she was.

A ray of sunlight and hope...

in this dead and dusty town.

Creek wasn't like many of us here,

but she accepted us.

To her...

We weren't outsiders.

We were family.

I think I speak for everyone here

when I say...

Creek was the best of us.

She had strength.

She loved without judgment.

And with Creek...

you were never alone.

I'm sorry.

I failed you.

But I'll make it right.

I'll always love you, Creek.

A toast to Creek.

Midnight won't be the same without you.

all: To Creek.

You okay? You haven't said much tonight.

No, I'm fine. Just sad.

That-that was a beautiful eulogy, Lem.

Joe will be devastated he missed it.

Any word on him? - He's still out looking

for Chuy, and it's been days.

Can't be good.

What is happening to us?

I searched 20 miles in every direction.

Still no sign of Creek's car. - And no body.

It's like she just disappeared.

Because he burned her body.

Right, Feej? - Manfred.

We still don't know that Kai did any of this.

Guys, I'm gonna go home.

Do you want me to go, too?

No, I'm fine.

Kai killed Creek

to get back at me for sleeping with his wife,

and then he doused her with goat's blood

and he torched her.

Just like he watched us do with Bruce and Carolyn's bones

in the hotel to make their spirits move on.

He made sure she couldn't talk to me.

Don't you need to be a witch to do something like that?

Well, I mean, any idiot can wield magic

if they're motivated enough.

I think my dad proved that.

Yeah, but Kai's not just any idiot.

He's got a- a head in a cage

that only he can move, an arsenal full of monster juju

at his disposal. - Okay.

How do we stop him? - By figuring out

what he's up to.

And the first step to doing that:

Translating the Syriac writing on the head.

What happened here?

It's okay, it's okay.

You don't have to talk.

It's okay.

I'm here.

It's okay.

Can we-can we talk?

My God, Manfred.

I am so sorry.

I-I still can't believe any of this is even happening.

I'm-I'm sick about it.

I wanted to come to Creek's memorial

but I-I thought me being there-

It's better you didn't.

Really.

You do know

that Kai killed her, right?

Just tell me you know that. - No, no, no, no.

My husband wouldn't kill a tick to stop it from biting him.

I cannot believe that he would hurt Creek.

But then again, I...

I never thought that he would forcibly try

and take away someone else's powers

or lie to me about his ability

to give those powers back.

God,

I believed him for years.

I had no reason not to until now.

I don't know who I'm married to anymore.

You must think I'm such a fool.

I'm just...

I'm worried about you.

Well, I'm worried about you, too,

and that's why I came here.

Um, I have something for you.

I got it from a Lakota Medicine Woman.

It's supposed to protect you

in case Kai tries to take your powers again.

I'm a gypsy.

Protective amulets don't actually work.

Well, still, it would make me feel better.

Manfred, I've never seen Kai like this before.

He's furious.

At you, at me for trying to help you.

I'm afraid of what he might do.

Please?

It would at least make me feel like

I'm helping you out a little.

I'm taking care of you.

Barely even looked at me the past few days.

The grief just...

hit me harder than I thought.

Honestly, it-it's been overwhelming.

I mean, I know that everybody

looks to me to be...

the positive one, but right now I just can't.

I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry.

Of course it's hard.

I was just worried it was...

something else.

Don't worry.

It's not.

I thought you were tired.

Didn't you say

you were so tired?

Yeah...

I'm sorry, babe.

Nothing? - Nothing.

Okay, this is the last

of Joe's stash.

What even is "Syriac"?

Joe said it was a dialect of Aramaic

that even he had a hard time translating.

No one's used it in a thousand years.

Ha.

Well, this is...

impossible without him.

Here.

Finally.

Okay.

This looks like an "E."

And another "E."

What is-is that an "H"?

Is that "D"?

No.

So an "E."

I saw you.

I-I saw you with Manfred.

I mean, what-what could you possibly have to say to him?

I went there to clean up the mess you made.

You went too far trying to take away his powers.

Now we're gonna have to play nice with the neighbors

if we ever want to get this place back up-

We're gonna play nice with the neighbors?

So-so we're gonna put everyone's needs over mine.

I'm sorry. You're always putting

everyone else's needs above mine.

It's my job to take care of people.

That's my job. - Right, other people.

But you, on the other hand, you-you hire this psychic

without consulting me, you-you give the vampire

his powers back, you- you run around with him

all hours of the night like some damn Scooby gang.

I'm done here. I'm tried. - And-and, yeah,

you're screwing Manfred.

I told you, that voice-

I know the voicemail was fake, but Lem says

that tricksters play off drama that already exists,

so there's gotta be some truth to it.

All these years...

Everything I've done, I've never asked

for anything in return.

I just hoped for your love and-and your loyalty.

I'm so sorry.

It meant nothing.

I was just so lonely.

You are my husband,

and I love you.

Please don't give up on me.

You need to pick a side.

Did you really think

I didn't know you were there?

What the hell are you doing here?

What do you think?

Heading the right direction.

Chuy's not far off.

A demon compass?

Pretty cool, right?

Go home, Walker.

It's between Chuy and me.

Well, I'm involved whether you like it or not.

No. No, you're not.

He's killed innocent people, Joe.

We need to put him down- - This is my husband

we're talking about.

The man I love.

Not some big game trophy for you to put on your wall.

So I'm not gonna tell you again.

Get the hell out of here.

Or what, angel?

You ain't gonna hurt a human.

You wanna bet?

All right, then.

Go on, do it.

That's the only way you're gonna stop me

from killing Chuy.

"N" and "A."

I think that's it. - Great.

What the hell does it mean? - Wait a minute.

Aramaic is written

right to left.

Syriac must be the same.

So...

That works.

"An army of seventy times seven beasts

to free thee..." - So the head

in the cage is cursed and Kai's trying

to jail-break it. - Seems like it.

And it would take an army of beasts to do it?

Wait a minute, maybe it's not meant to be literal.

Not-not a literal army, just the horsepower.

The vials of monster power.

Kai has hundreds of them. - Kai is harvesting

the monster power to free the head.

But why? To what end?

And how many more does he need?

It won't be long now.

I've literally Googled "head in cage with Syriac curse

tattooed on forehead."

Nada.

You? - Just a detailed description

of how to turn semen into hot sauce.

Okay, well, let's file that

in "things I never need to hear again."

Got it.

It belong to Kiva Goldwater.

She was a drabarni.

A gypsy shaman.

Okay.

And you have her...

eyeball because?

Xylda won it in a bet.

Thought it might come in handy one day and, well..

Here we are, I guess.

Look, Kiva was an expert in curses.

and if anyone knows anything

about an obscure cursed head in a cage, it's her.

Let's just hope she hasn't crossed over yet.

Xylda's a tramp. - Watch your mouth, Kiva.

That's my grandma you're smack-talking.

Well, she beat me to everything.

First to divorce.

First to curse the Kardashian clan.

And then first to cross over before I did?

My grandma was lucky.

You, not so much.

But if you can help me explain this curse,

maybe I can help you. - Well, who is that

tall drink?

Look at the size of his hands.

"An army of seventy times seven beasts

to free thee."

You've heard of it? - Every drabarni worth

her weight in gold has heard of it.

It's "The Curse of the Seventy Times Seven."

What can you tell us?

That I don't work for free.

I'll help you cross over.

Actually, I have

a better idea.

Whoo.

I said, ride around town with the top down.

Everything tonight is the best this place

has ever seen.

Damn.

Hello, gorgeous.

Hello, yourself.

Saw your post on Supernaturals Anonymous.

Says monsters drink free.

Is that true?

Well, that depends.

Are you a monster?

I could show you.

Really? - I could show you everything.

I want to see it all.

Thanks, but...

I got a better offer.

Yeah.

Yeah, right there.

My heel spurs are killing me.

You have no idea

what a grind Limbo is.

Get between the toes.

You know what?

You tell Manfred to spit you out

or he's gonna lose an eye.

So...

About the curse.

Well, it was used once, to my knowledge,

on a very powerful witch.

The founder of the Dark Magic.

Dark Magic had to come from somewhere.

Who do you think started the Dark Ages?

Was this him?

Where did you get that? - Someone's trying

to bring him back. - Manny, if that is him,

you should know- he has a twin.

They were the original witches.

The Dark Magic,

if came from their connection.

The curse separated the twins, neutering their strength.

Should the curse be broken, they will regain

their full power. - And then what?

Darkness falls.

What is it?

Is his twin named Kai?

I'm not sure.

The other twin, he was scrubbed out from history,

some people say by the twin himself

to protect his identity.

This name I know.

It's Theophilus.

The Father of Darkness.

Name, sweetheart? - Um...

I didn't catch your name. - No, you didn't.

What do you say we get out of here?

both: Yeah.

I wanna watch you walk away.

I'm the luckiest girl in here tonight.

Woke up to a noise complaint from the neighbors,

which was real confusing considering the bar

was supposed to be closed tonight.

What the hell? - I'm just blowing off

some steam, letting my freak flag fly,

and right about now my freak flag wants

to get nailed by a couple of vamps.

You wanna watch? Could be hot.

This blood bag bothering you, honey?

We're good.

Let's go.

This...

This isn't you, all right?

It's dark magic.

Good, 'cause it's everything I ever wanted to be

but was too afraid to admit before.

I'm free now.

When I took that butterfly out I took all my cares

and worries out with it, including you.

That's why the curse is broken, dumbass.

I don't love you anymore.

Did you think that I was gonna settle down

with some Nazi-born,

hick town barkeep?

Please.

I'm gonna go play

kitty-in-the-middle, and then I'm gonna go find me

a Michael B. Jordan, so back off.

You're not going anywhere with them.

Honey, I kept up the good-girl act

to keep your fragile, straight white male ego

in check but, honey, the last thing I need

is saving.

I've evolved, Bobo.

You should, too.

Shall we? - Yes.

Whoop.

Guys, Fiji's a dark witch.

No, Fiji is Glinda the Good Witch

through and through.

She was until she pulled

the butterfly out of her chest and swore herself

to the dark side to save my hide.

Come again? - I know it's crazy

but Fiji was researching how to break

her family curse, and she discovered

that when you're a witch you're either a child

of Delilah, a good witch,

or a child of Theophilus, a bad one.

Did you just say "Theophilus"?

Yeah, why?

This is Theophilus.

He's Kai's twin.

They're the original dark witches.

That's why Kai is harvesting monster powers.

To bring him back.

So you're telling me that Fiji's ancient

villainous ancestor been living across the street

this whole damn time? - I don't know

about anyone else but I am tired

of evil making its way into Midnight.

I say we go have a little chat with our neighbors.

Let's go. - Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hang on, cowboys.

Look, rule number one: You never go

into anything blind.

Yes, even though Patience gave you your powers back

we still don't know where they hid the other vials,

and we can't move the head, and we don't know

how powerful Kai is.

Or Fiji, for that matter.

Sorry, Bobo.

You guys, we need more information

before we just storm the castle.

We need Fiji.

This really necessary?

I let you go...

you find Chuy or Chuy finds you,

so now I have to look out for you both.

Look, I know it's hard,

but we both know it's gotta happen,

and I don't think you have the backbone when it counts.

Let me go.

I'll handle it for you. - You don't get it.

Chuy's in this position because of us.

We're not to blame, Joe.

I am.

Don't make me choose between you and Chuy,

because you will lose.

Let's go. - You will never know

what it's like to be human, and hunted, and hated by demons

for no reason at all.

And you'll never know what it's like to watch

your own mama get her heart torn out in front of you.

And you'll never know what it's like

to love somebody for 1,000 years...

and to be loved for 1,000 years.

I'm sorry about your family, Walker.

I am.

But Chuy is my family,

and I'll do whatever it takes to save him.

Let's go.

Fiji? - Feej.

Fiji? Get your ass out here.

She's not here.

What the...?

That's new.

My God.

Holy...

Yeah, this is bad.

What the hell are those? - It's our hair.

Lem's blood.

How did I miss this? - We all missed it.

Guys.

What is it?

Is that blood?

Those are Creek's.

My God.

Fiji did it.

Ooh.

Come here, baby.

How about we try something a little more interesting?

Sounds good.

Ooh.

You're bad.

I like that.

Where'd you go, baby?

I'm right here.

You witch.

You're damn right.

No.

You.

Where are you?

You.

What have you done?. - I'm burning

your dark magic.

I know what you did.

All of it.

You're wrong, Fiji.

You do need saving.

Ever the Boy Scout?

Maybe I was too subtle at the bar.

Black salt. - I hear it stops evil

in its tracks.

You're so cute

when you try things you don't understand.

Good old fashioned iron.

Witch Kryptonite.

This is for your own good.

You talk, we'll lift the nails.

Creek was your friend.

Why? - Creek just got in the way.

Yeah, answers like that?

They just don't work.

You're not a killer, Feej.

Evil or not, I still don't believe you did it.

Well, I didn't do it.

I didn't kill Creek.

But I did cover it up, though.

You were right.

But it was me that burned her bones.

Had to make sure she moved on quick

'cause we all know how much Creek liked to talk.

You whore.

What did Kai do to you?

He helped me see the light.

When I pledged myself to the darkness,

Theophilus spoke to me.

I followed his voice to this hotel.

I wanted to serve him.

You can't stop us.

You know that, right?

We have all seventy times seven beasts collected.

Theophilus will rise

by dawn.

Kai has everything he needs to lift the curse.

So now what?

Poor Manfred.

You're never meant to find love, are you?

The hell is that supposed to mean?

You know.

Dark magic always requires a sacrifice.

God.

Patience.

What does this mean? - It's a compass.

He's here.

Chuy, no.

Please, stop.

Remember our wedding?

it stormed for weeks.

We decided to get married anyway.

Rain or shine...

we promised we'd never give up on one another.

No matter how ugly things got.

Remember?

Walker.

I can't do it.

I can't kill the man you love...

because I love you.

No.

No, no, no, no.

No.

You didn't give me any choice.

I'm so sorry.

Don't...

touch me.

I might have been the one to kill Chuy...

But it's just as much your fault he's dead.

None of this would have happened

if I never met you.

Joe...

I never want to see you again.

You can't mean that.

Leave.

Never come back.

Go.

We don't have much time.

We'll have to split up. - Meet you back

at Home Cooking. - Lem.

I can't lose anyone else.

Be careful.

Patience?

Should I just give you your own key?

Where's Patience? - You know you're trespassing.

I could kill you just for being in here.

We know everything.

The vials, the head,

the Curse of Seventy Times Seven.

Creek.

I'm not gonna let you get away with it.

Yeah? - Yeah, I'm here for Patience

and I am not leaving without her.

Over my dead body.

Okay, then.

Lem? What are you doing here?

We've gotta get you out of here, you're in danger.

Wait a minute. I don't understand.

There's no time to explain.

I'm sorry.

It's over, Kai.

We have Fiji.

We know she's been doing your dirty work.

We know you had her get rid of Creek, you coward.

I had nothing to do with Creek's death.

You can blame me for what you want-

I didn't touch that girl. - Liar.

You took away what I loved most.

Now I'm gonna return the favor.

I'm gonna destroy that damn head,

and there's no way in hell you're bringing

your brother back. - It's not my brother.

But, then-then whose is he?

Theophilus, it's-

it's Patience's twin.

No.

No, no, but-

but Patience said the head was your ancestor.

That you draw your power from him.

I don't know why she'd tell you that.

What do you know about all this?

Why should I tell you?

'Cause I feel like you and I have been fed

very different information.

I-I knew she was a witch.

But a good one.

She had her brother, they were persecuted

more than 800 years ago.

They were cursed by a dark witch, Delilah.

She was jealous. She felt the twins, they-

they were too strong together, so she cut Theo's head off

to separate them, to take their powers away.

Okay, and where-where does Fiji fit in to all this?

No, she just- she wanted to help.

Patience said she was a good witch, too,

so we let her help. - What, so you just-

you collected the vials to break the curse?

I wanted to give Patience her brother back.

And it was slow at first.

It was maybe a dozen monsters a year.

And then we learned of- of Midnight, and the energy

that this place drew.

But there was no harm being done.

There was none. I was-I was healing monsters-

and, I thought, healing the woman that I love,

'cause a piece of her was missing

without her brother. - You don't get it.

Your wife lied to you.

The twins aren't the good guys.

Theophilus is the father of black magic.

Together they'll be the most powerful being

to ever walk this Earth, and it'll be your fault.

You helped her.

Why are you wearing this?

Patience gave it to me to protect me from you.

No, that-that belonged to Theophilus.

That was gonna be used to bring him back.

Bring him back how? - That necklace, it's like a-

a binder to fuse Theo's head to a host body.

Patience assured me no one was gonna get hurt.

We-we were gonna use the cadaver from the morgue.

She put that on you.
