Original subtitles

CLAIRE: Previously on Dominion...

MICHAEL: It's the Morning Star.

My older brother, Lucifer.

MICHAEL: It's the Amphora of Darkness.

It brings out the darkness inside you. It drives you mad with visions

to make you hurt yourself or someone else.

Your humanity is hanging by a thread.

Cut it.

Horrible things I've done.

(GRUNTING)

My baby-

I thought I lost you.

(WILLOW CRYING)

Alex?

(C RYING) Where's Willow?

Goodbye, David.

You mean nothing.

(METAL CLAN KING)

I Will kill them all.

The Amphora of Darkness.

We need to find out who survived.

God's wrath has never been unleashed on an Archangel.

(GABRIEL PANTING)

(SCREAMING)

(STRAINED) Michael, he'll come back for me.

No, he's forgotten you.

ALEX: Julian's army. They're already here.

You're the master of all angels in New Delphi now.

It's your army. Good.

GABRIEL: They will be another weapon to use.

But my brother's death will be by this hand,

when I plunge my sword into his traitorous heart.

(GABRIEL GRUNTS)

(CLATTERING)

MICHAEL: Gabriel?

The Darkness. It was you?

GABRIEL: Father may have gone,

but at least he left his toys behind.

What have you done?

(SIGHS)

MICHAEL: Gabriel, your eyes.

The Darkness is inside you.

Julian did this to you somehow.

You're not yourself. GABRIEL: Nonsense.

Julian merely lifted the veil.

For so long, I've blamed Alex for everything that's happened.

But now I know who's truly responsible.

MICHAEL: You. No.

We stood together in New Delphi. (SVVORD CLAN KING)

I haven't forgotten yoursacflfice.

(GRUNTING) (GASPS)

What are you doing?

I'm going to kill you, Michael,

and everything you love.

I won't fight you.

Good.

Then die quickly.

(GRUNTING)

(GRUNTING)

(GRUNTING AND THUDDING)

(PANTS)

(SWORD CLANKING)

(GRUNTING) (SWORDS CLANKING)

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(PANTING)

It's gonna get worse before it gets better, right?

(PANTING)

I don't know, Alex.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

Look at me.

What you lost, there are no words.

Butlneed you with me.

Okay?

We need to get to Claire,

and make sure she's okay.

Then stop talking,

and start moving.

We'll check the suite first.

(GRUNTING)

(GASPS) Alex!

(CLAIRE PANTING)

ARIKA: Claire, are you okay? (CLAIRE GASPS)

No. Claire, don't, don't shoot.

(GASPING)

(GASPING)

CLAIRE: You killed my guard.

He was dead. But I don't know if I shot him, Claire.

I don't know.

How did you get out of your cell?

I don't know. I woke up in House Whele

holding a gun to my head.

It happened to you, didn't it?

What did you see?

My worst nightmare.

You're dead. (METAL CLANKING)

(GRUNTING) (ARIKA THUDDING AND GASPING)

ARIKA: (CRYING) I am so sorry.

Please forgive me.

Forgive me.

You...

You and Rose, you...

You treated me like an eight-ball.

You trained me to seduce David Whele

like we did to her.

I tried... I tried to resist,

but I lost myself. It was...

It was so... CLAIRE: Real...

More than real.

(CLAIRE WHIMPERS)

What I saw was...

More like a dream.

Everything I ever wanted.

She has my eyes.

Your chin. Don't you think?

Yeah.

(SIGHS)

I gotta find Alex.

Claire,

will you trust me?

(VEGA CITIZENS SCREAMING IN THE DISTANCE)

(SIGHS)

Doesn't look like I have a choice, does it?

(DOOR OPENING)

(WOMAN SOBBING)

VVILLIAM: No, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no.

(SHUSHING)

Don't despair.

Yeah, we all saw the worst things possible.

What did you see?

The truth.

(GUN CLICKS)

Vega must die.

WOMAN: I can't go on.

Then you won't have to.

(GUNSHOT)

(DOOR SLIDING OPEN)

JERRY: Get away from me. (GRUNTING)

(THUDDING) Stay back!

DAVID: Rough night, huh?

Are you real?

(CHUCKLES)

Flesh and blood.

Whatever happened,

it's over.

DAVID: For now, at least.

I saw things.

You and me both.

What matters is that we survived.

(COMPUTER BEEPS) (PANTING)

You're David Whele.

(SCOFFS)

That's impossible.

Yeah, yeah.

Apparently... (GRUNTS)

I managed to survive my own hanging,

unless this is still a figment of my imagination.

God, I hope not.

What brought you here to the war room? (SIGHS)

I, I was at my post. (COMPUTER WHIRRING)

I'm a Comm Officer.

Ah!

A useful man.

(BEEPS)

Well, son...

If my eyes aren't lying,

it appears our time together is limited.

Noma.

Claire?

Alex? You're alive.

(SIGHS) You're hurt.

No, I'm fine.

(EIGHT-BALLS GROWLING IN THE DISTANCE)

You hear that?

Julian's army.

(EIGHT-BALLS GROWLING)

(EIGHT-BALLS GROWLING CONTINUES)

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

They'll hit the East Wall first.

Sounds like they're a couple of miles from the wall.

On foot, they'll be here in less than an hour.

We don't have a lot of time. (GASPS)

Tell me you have a plan.

Nomes and I will cover the East Wall.

Look for survivors,

arm them and fight.

Alex, it won't be enough.

You two get to the war room.

We need the wall cannons online.

ALEX: It's our only chance.

Okay. Great. I know the codes.

CLAIRE: Arika and I'll take care of it.

The sooner the better.

Once the eight-balls get here

the walls won't stop them.

Alex...

I don't want this to be the end.

We survived the Darkness.

ALEX: I'm not dying today.

And neither are you.

I saw...

I saw our daughter.

Her name was Willow.

Willow?

She was beautiful.

A daughter?

I saw our future.

Or what it might've been.

Alex, we gotta move.

ALEX: See you soon.

Okay?

Be careful.

(SWORDS CLANKING)

(GRUNTING)

Gabriel, stop!

You betrayed me.

Time and time again.

(PANTING)

(GABRIEL GRUNTING)

You were the one Julian wanted to kill,

and yet I was the one he tortured.

After you left.

(G RU NTS) I left to protect the Chosen One and Father's markings.

I did it all for us. For the family!

Ha! (GRUNTS)

What has family ever meant to you, hmm?

You betrayed our family.

You gave your gift away.

(MICHAEL GRUNTS)

(PANTING)

Claire, I'm not coming with you. I'm going home.

Arika, I can't do this alone.

You can.

You're stronger than you think, maybe stronger than me.

And this isn't my city, I...

I need to go back to Helena.

This is not about Helena or Vega.

If we don't kill these monsters

that's it for all of us.

Arika?

Please don't leave.

Are you going to stop me?

No.

Too many people have died already.

CLAIRE: You wanna go? Go.

I'm sorry. CLAIRE: Yeah.

(SIGHS)

SPORTS ANNOUNCER: That's gonna be short by about a yard and a half.

CHRISTMAS DAY 2016

CHRISTMAS DAY 2016 JASPER, TX

They will go for it.

GABRIEL: Father's gone.

I had hoped I was wrong, but he really is gone.

I wonder...

If your most prized creation

becomes your greatest failure,

what are you to do?

What are you talking about?

Humans.

They drove Him away.

No. That's not the reason. That's your interpretation.

Funny,

coming from a man gifted with what one can only assume

are very important markings that none of us can read...

Another gift from Father.

GABRIEL: Uriel and her beloved Apocrypha,

the Prophecies he gave Raphael, the scribblings on your body...

Tokens for one and all.

That's what this is about? You feeling left out?

Uh, not at all.

Father gave me a gift, too.

A seal.

No. Not just any seal.

GABRIEL: Lucky number seven.

The Apocalypse.

Well, I don't believe it. Why would Father entrust you

with such... Power?

Isn't it obvious?

Gabriel, what are you doing?

All we have to do is crack this Seventh Seal.

The skies will open, our kind will descend

to cure this world of a dreadful disease...

Humanity.

MICHAEL: You'll start a war pitting humans against angels.

You wouldn't.

But it's what Father must've wanted!

When the last human is dead,

he'll return.

He has to.

No.

Raphael's prophecy foretells a Chosen One.

No. We must find him together.

You'll forgive me if I...

Don't put much stock in Raphael's prophecies.

She has a rather spotty record

when it comes to predicting the future.

GABRIEL: No.

There is only one way to bring Father back,

and it's in my hands.

Gabriel, please. Don't do this.

If you break that seal... No!

(CLATTERING)

There.

It's done.

(EIGHT-BALLS GROWLING)

(GASPING)

(SCREAMING)

What have you done?

(SCREAMING)

(GROWLING)

(ALL SCREAMING)

(BRAKES SCREECHING) (GLASS SHATTERING)

(SCREAMING)

(GRUNTING)

(GRUNTS)

You broke the Seventh Seal.

You started the Extermination War.

The seal was made to be broken.

No. You were never meant to open the heavens.

It was a test. A test you failed!

No. (LAUGHS) You are wrong.

(SWORDS CLANKING)

Eradicating the scourge of humanity

is the only way to bring our Father home.

That's why he gave us the power to destroy them.

No, you're wrong. Father wanted us to save humanity,

all of them. That's why he gave us the Chosen One.

Agree to disagree.

(GRUNTING)

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(SWORD CLANKING)

(PANTING)

(PANTING)

(EIGHT-BALLS GROWLING)

JACK: It's okay. We're human.

We're human.

Okay-

Still no sign of Michael.

He'd be here if he could. We're on our own.

The city is under attack by an army of eight-balls.

So if you can use a weapon, consider yourself a soldier of Vega.

You making yourself our leader?

ALEX: No.

I'm not asking you to fight for me.

I'm asking you to fight with me.

We fight or we die.

If you're killing angels, we're with you.

Good.

Take everyone with a gun and get to the walls.

Everyone. (GUN CLICKING)

Here you go, sister.

I've never shot a gun before.

NOMA: You'll learn. I'll show you. Mmm-hmm.

You practice that talk in the shower?

I haven't showered in two weeks.

JACK: Let's go. Let's go.

If we're gonna die...

(GUN CLICKING)

I'm glad I'm gonna go down fighting next to the man I love.

Claire?

(SIGHS)

"May we be in heaven a half hour before the devil knows we're dead."

You sure you won'tjoin me? The bottle's almost empty.

DAVID: Suit yourself.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Why am I not surprised,

the cockroach survived in the dark? DAVID: Huh.

Well, a year ago I wouldn't have expected you to...

Survive a bad cold. So...

I'm older and wiser.

Older, anyway.

David, I need to get in there.

Yes. To kill me.

Believe me there is nothing I would like more.

CLAIRE: Look at the monitors, David.

(CLAN KING)

CLAIRE: I need to get the cannons online.

There are eight-balls advancing...

Eight-balls racing at our glorious walls.

It's the end of humanity as we know it, Claire.

I'd offer you a drink, but it's...

It's a terrible vintage.

CLAIRE: Open this door. Otherwise...

I die.

You die.

And our city dies with us.

(SOFTLY) Please.

(BEEPS)

AUTOMATED VOICE: System rebooting.

(WHIRRING)

DAVID: I'm glad we've finally come to some...

Kind of understanding.

(SCOFFS)

The only thing

that I understand

is that you're a murderer.

(EIGHT-BALLS GROWLING)

My baby is dead. You killed her.

(GRUNTS)

Do you know what it's like to lose a piece of yourself?

Your reason to fight? Your reason to live?

Two of my children were

murdered on the first day of the war.

They were torn from my wife's arms.

But I found solace in, in...

Building this city.

I poured my love,

and energy into it and this city became my child.

I gave far more to this city,

to Vega, than I ever did to my surviving son.

You remember him? William.

The son you ordered me to put to death.

But the day I left William out in the desert

was the day that I destroyed the last

piece of hope in myself.

I just wasn't honest enough to lie down and stop breathing.

(PANTS)

DAVID: I am sorry,

for everything I have done.

I hate you.

You're not worth it.

(SNIFFS)

Oh, shit!

(GROWLING)

They're over by the Luxor. It's outside the walls.

They can stay there as long as they like.

Who cares? We do.

There is a tunnel right underneath that bus that leads straight into Vega.

Uh-oh.

(GROWLING)

(GRUNTING)

(PANTING)

All I did, I did for you.

To keep our family whole.

To keep you by my side.

(THUDDING)

(EXCLAIMING) GABRIEL: Please.

Wait. Stay with me. Where are you going?

To find the Chosen One.

There is no Chosen One. Damn the prophecy.

He's destined to be a savior.

Or a destroyer. Don't forget that.

And that's why we must guide him.

Noma, go! Find him.

Michael, please. What are you doing?

It's too late. The Lower Angels are here.

Their work will soon be done.

And you have to stop them.

No. Never!

Then IWill.

We were meant to work together.

Why don't you believe me?

What you've done cannot be undone.

The child's our only hope now.

I cannot do this alone! I need you.

Don't leave me.

You brought this on yourself.

Michael?

Mike?

(LAUGHING AND PANTING)

(GROWLING)

(WHIRRING)

What's taking so long to get the wall guns working?

CLAIRE: Shit. The system froze.

Lucky for us we have a Comms Officer on deck.

Can you help us?

You're the Lady of the City.

This is no time to stand on ceremony, soldier.

Get your butt over there. Look, I don't know iflhaveu.

CLAIRE: I'm serious. Sit down. But this...

Go. This is way above my pay grade.

Well, consider yourself promoted.

Can you do it?

I'll try. (WHIRRING)

Come on. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Calm down.

We'll do this together.

Where are you going?

Communications are down. I need to tell Alex.

And we can stop them from breaking through the tunnel.

And, David, I need those cannons up and working.

CLAIRE: Can I trust you? Yes. You can.

Okay, what's your name, son?

Uh, it's Jerry.

Well, Jerry, you heard her.

We need to get these cannons online.

It's our only hope.

(SIGHS)

(GROWLING)

ARIKA: Daria?

Are you...

Doctor Ely? Are you okay?

Where's Daria?

Gone. She ran out of here screaming.

What happened?

What are we gonna do?

We're going home.

Claire? What is it?

New problem.

There's a tunnel that runs underneath the Luxor directly into Vega.

Let me guess, the eight-balls found it?

Yeah. And there's a gate in the middle but it's not gonna last long.

Let's go.

Yeah. I'm gonna need a bigger gun.

Hold on. Hold on what?

I'm not staying here.

Claire, you're wounded.

There are eight-balls at our walls,

in the tunnels.

You're gonna need me.

Let's move.

Listen, Claire.

I swore an oath to protect Alex,

but it's more than just an oath.

Yeah, I get that. NOMA: Look, if something happens...

If I fail him. You won't.

Yeah, but if I do.

I need to know that you'll do anything

to make sure Alex is safe.

I will. Anything.

Let's go. Let's go.

DAVID: How's it going? JERRY: Uh.

It's complicated.

Uh. (BEEPING)

AUTOMATED VOICE: Wall cannons activated.

(WHIRRING)

We're online?

JERRY: Yes, we are. DAVID: Now what?

Now we bitch-slap some eight-balls.

(LAUGHS) I can do that. Can I do that?

This one's yours.

It's easy.

Just, you move the target with your finger and hit the red fire button.

All the cannons are fully loaded.

That's your side.

Uh. Okay.

Okay. JERRY: Turn the console on.

Um... Oh.

JERRY: Line up the target with your finger,

and hit the red fire button. (BEEPING)

JERRY: Ah!

You're a natural, Consul.

Well, thank you, Jerry.

JERRY: Keep shooting.

(BEEPING)

(GRUNTING)

(GRUNTING)

I begged you to stay.

(MICHAEL GRUNTING)

When you left the bar that day, everything changed.

My angels had come to wipe out the planet.

It was meant to be an extinction event,

but, oh, no, you crossed sides and made it a war.

And I get the blame.

GABRIEL: All my angels came to my side but you...

My own brother.

You left me when I needed you most.

You broke our family apart.

MICHAEL: No.

(PANTING)

It was already broken...

By another...

The archangel who chose humanity first.

Long before I did.

Our brother is alive.

No.

(LAUGHING)

The universe is rather vast.

I've searched, but never found its end.

It's a magnificent thing,

but daunting in its breadth.

And yet,

never once, have I felt alone.

(BRAKES SCREECHING) (CRASHING)

Until now.

That was fast.

The trail led to a house.

And Michael?

I sent him in the wrong direction.

(GABRIEL CHUCKLING)

That serves him right for trusting you.

GABRIEL: But we know better, don't we?

This is the only way to bring our Father back.

(SIGHING) Take me to the child.

What are we gonna do with him?

Why, kill him of course.

(SIGHS) And when the boy is gone,

Michael will come back to me.

(GLASS SHATTERING)

JERRY: Check this out.

Down they go!

(LAUGHING)

There is a perverse kind of joy in seeing them blown apart, isn't there?

(BEEPING)

(EIGHT-BALLS GRUNTING)

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Oh, I think I might've missed my calling.

Me, too. (GUN SHOT)

Hello, Daddy.

ALEX: Claire's at my back. NOMA: Got it.

Be careful, these halls aren't safe.

(CRYING)

My Queen.

We don't have time for this. Please.

Don't leave.

Please.

DR. ELY: She's Vega's problem. Not ours.

Collateral damage.

Helena is the only thing that matters.

We must fly.

You sound like someone I used to know.

Who?

Me.

Come.

Take her with you to the helicopter.

DR. ELY: But... ARIKA: Now.

(PANTING)

Gabriel,

please listen to me.

Our brother is alive.

(CLATTERING) (MICHAEL PANTING)

What did you say?

MICHAEL: The Son of Morning.

He lives.

Lucifer?

(GROWLING)

ALEX: Fan out.

Stay close.

They're gonna break through.

ALEX: The gate's not gonna hold much longer.

(GROWLING)

(BOTH PANTING)

There's a town

called Mallory. (PANTING)

Untouched by the war.

MICHAEL: There are people there. They hear a voice

and they think it's God.

But it's not Father.

I think Lucifer is the one responsible.

But I don't know how.

GABRIEL: No.

Gabriel, I met a man who claims to work for him.

And Alex has a new marking.

(CHUCKLES) A marking of what?

Tell me.

(GRUNTING)

DAVID: What did you do?

I thought I was the Chosen One,

but turns out I'm not.

WILLIAM: Alex Lannon is the Chosen One.

He stole everything from me.

My wife.

My destiny.

DAVID: This man who you just killed

was helping to defend our city.

We were stopping eight-balls at the wall.

Gabriel, Claire,

and Alex all came to me.

Stripped me of my illusions.

I wasn't saved by God.

I wasn't special.

(SOBBING) I'm not worthy.

It was just a story I made up.

William, what you saw, that, that was...

That was the illusion.

It was like a nightmare.

WILLIAM: That's okay. It was necessary.

I realized it doesn't matter that I'm...

Just a man.

I can still fight evil.

(PANTING)

Tell me you got a plan.

My Plan?

Is to make it out of this city one last time.

(LAUGHING)

Outside these walls? Are you crazy?

Desert dandelions in full bloom.

You wanna see them, right? Yeah.

So we jump in the truck,

hit the open road, and never look back, eh?

ALEX: Like we always planned. (CLAIRE CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS) Seems like a lifetime ago.

Doesn't have to be.

All we need's the truck.

(SIGHS)

William, you need help.

I returned to this city

to cleanse troubled hearts.

Look at me, please.

WILLIAM: But there's just

so much sin.

You don't know what you're saying, son.

It's in all of them...

Too much for me to cleanse.

DAVID: Give me the gun,

please. The only cure

is to kill them all.

What do you mean?

What do you think you're doing?

Well, don't you see?

Everyone in Vega must die.

That's the only way we can save them.

William, I know this is hard to believe, but I wanna help.

Like you helped me by leaving me to die in the desert?

And I have regretted it every single moment.

(BANGING) Why do I doubt that?

Because of every lie I told you,

and every mistake I made.

But now I'm telling the truth.

DAVID: I never should've left you in that desert.

I appreciate your effort, I do.

But it's too late.

I'm opening the gates.

DAVID: No, it's never too late never too...

No, you can't. You can't do this...

Please. Step away from the console.

DAVID: Please, step away. (METAL CLAN KING)

Do you forgive me, Father?

Step away. Now!

I forgive you. (SOBBING)

William! No!

(WHIRRING)

(WILLIAM GRUNTING)

(GROWLING)

(SCREAMING)

Let's g0!

(EIGHT-BALLS GROWLING)

Tell me about your Chosen One.

Gabriel, please listen.

Alex's marking, I've seen it.

It's the Morning Star.

GABRIEL: Impossible.

We annihilated him.

You, me, Raphael, and Uriel.

We did as Father commanded.

MICHAEL: But I think he survived.

And now I fear he wants Alex.

Alex? Why?

MICHAEL: I don't know.

But if I'm right,

and this is Lucifer,

he's gonna remember what you and I did to him.

He was our first,

the most powerful of us.

If he lives

there's no telling what shape his vengeance will take.

Hmm.

(MICHAEL GRUNTING)

(SCREAMING)

(WILLIAM GRUNTING) (BEEPING)

DAVID: I won't let you kill everyone in this city!

(WILLIAM GRUNTING)

(GUN FIRING)

DAVID: No. WILLIAM: Get Off!

(SCREAMING)

(GRUNTING)

(CRASHING) (GRUNTING)

DAVID: No, William!

(BANGING) (LAUGHING)

(LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY)

Oh, forgive me. (SOBBING)

DAVID: Please.

WILLIAM: Everyone in Vega must die.

I love you.

(GUN SHOTS) (WILLIAM GASPING)

I always loved you.

No.

You didn't.

(SOBBING)

You can't defeat Lucifer alone, Gabriel.

We must face him together.

GABRIEL: I don't believe you, Michael.

I dare not.

But if there is even a chance

that Lucifer is alive,

best I go to this town you speak of and find out for myself.

But I won't be going alone.

(GRUNTS)

(GUNS FIRING) (SCREAMING)

ALEX: We're running out of ammo.

NOMA: Alex, there's too many of them.

NOMA: I'm out.

JACK: Lannon! What are you doing?
