Original subtitles

[Narrator] Previously on "Evil Touch."

Well, why don't we start from the beginning?

[Dr. Miller] All right, kids,

welcome to the Republic of Armenia.

(suspenseful music)

(man screams)

(combatant grunts)

(bus tires squealing) (passengers screaming)

[Dr. Miller] Whoa, whoa, easy, easy.

My name is Sanasar.

She's Demir.

[Vicki] Hey, did you burn yourself?

Oh, no, I

It's this mark I've had since, since I was a kid.

(fire crackling) Whoa!

So we hear this moaning in this plating.

Rick.

Stop, Rick.

They got really interested in Rick's passport.

(suspenseful music)

Rick?

It was Rick.

We have to get out of here, now.

Karen, are you ready?

Okay.

(suspenseful music) So we're supposed to just

tunnel our way under the wall, Rick?

I found a way to get us out by going over the wall

instead of through the gates.

There are guards everywhere, we can't use the streets.

No, no!

This village is unique.

We make a notable sacrifice.

Bye Sarah. No!

(Sarah screaming)

(Houston screaming)

(adventurous music)

(adventurous music continues)

(victim screaming)

I could hear Houston screaming.

(Houston screaming)

Sarah!

Sarah, God no!

Sarah, why?

(suspenseful music)

God no, why?

So I ran along the wall and Rick was following me.

I was so terrified.

(cultist grunting)

(suspenseful music)

And then it got crazy.

Then it got crazy?

Rick's eyes turned white and he collapsed.

And the guards stood up

and ran away like they were coming after him.

And then this guy jumps off the wall and lands on his back.

I mean, he should have been dead or paralyzed,

but he just ran off like nothing happened.

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Demir and Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

No!

(guard speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

You son of a bitch!

(fire crackling)

I saw they were taking Rick away, so I followed.

They took him to this old building, like their headquarters.

(mysterious music)

And Rick looked really messed up.

In what way?

I don't know, like, like drunk or stoned,

just really messed up.

(mysterious music continues)

And then they took us all out of the stable.

What, what's going on?

Where are you taking us?

Hey!

(guard speaking in foreign language)

Don't touch her with that.

Seriously, do not touch her with that.

(mysterious music)

I swear to God, by any means necessary

I will find a way to have you prosecuted for killing Sarah.

Your students were trying to escape.

That's why you killed her?

[Sanasar] This one who killed girl.

What are you crazy?

Rick would never kill anybody.

That's because it wasn't him.

What are you talking about?

You're saying he did it, you're saying he didn't.

Get off me, get off me.

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

Rick, what happened?

It's not as it seems. Jesus.

What did you do to him?

Professor Miller, whatever you think happened,

it's not as it appears.

[Dr. Miller] Not as it appears?

This is ridiculous.

I'm gonna have my friends at the embassy come here

Listen to me, stop talking!

Listen.

Nobody's happy for this.

If you'll stop talking and listen,

I'll tell you something, but you need to know.

Why don't you go ahead and tell me then?

(suspenseful music)

(Melek speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Melek speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Melek speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(suspenseful music)

You, go.

You, go out.

[Melek] Come.

Finally, Melek comes back

and I guess she convinced them to let me out.

How?

I don't know.

They weren't speaking English,

but she had my inhaler with her

so I could finally breath again.

And you need to eat.

I'll take you to your friends.

Okay? Come.

(suspenseful music) (Cameron panting)

[Dr. Miller] Go ahead, I'm listening.

Ever in your studies,

ever come across something called Char Voki?

No, what's that, what's

How about Pazuzu or Shedim or Gallu?

Oh, okay, I get it.

You're talking about

some benevolent supernatural entity, right?

That's from the ancient cultures?

Is that what you're talking about?

Yes. What does that have to do

with what's going on today?

Char Voki is an ancient demon.

It's an evil spirit.

It has existed since men first walked the Earth.

It's one of the most destructive forces ever.

It resides here in Tanrim.

It's our sacred duty

to keep this evil spirit from escaping.

What about this evil spirit?

What does that have to do with anything?

Char Voki can posses anyone.

It passes from person to person through touch, skin to skin.

And when people possessed it's impossible to know

because they act normal.

Normal?

There's nothing normal about any of this.

You know what? Both of you are out of your freaking minds.

Look professor, the only way to tell

is the mark left on the skin when the demon leaves the host

and moves to the next body.

This looks like a burn.

This looks like you've been branded

(suspenseful music)

Or maybe, maybe it's an allergic reaction.

I think you know it is not.

(suspenseful music)

(moves into mysterious music)

(mysterious haunted music)

So now I'm just trying to keep from getting caught

and guards are everywhere and I'm scared.

(suspenseful music)

(guards speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Gevork speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Gevork speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Gevork speaking in foreign language)

(suspenseful music)

Karen? Karen?

Oh, my God, what happened? Where the hell have you been?

Rick said you were

Rick said you were dead

and then Melek came to get your inhaler

and said you were okay but had a virus or something?

Wait, hold on, hold on.

You saw Rick? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He was really messed up.

What?

Sarah, she's

Oh my God.

Oh, my God. No, stop.

She didn't make it.

Why, why is this happening?

Like, what happened? Calm down.

Everyone was out looking for you all night long

and then Rick came and said you were dead,

and he wanted us to go with him.

It was just such a mess.

Where even where you, like, where have you been?

I, I, I don't even know where to begin.

Well, start somewhere.

We, like, ran into this dungeon place

and there was this old man.

And then I, I don't know.

I must've got knocked out because I woke up in this pit

and Rick wasn't in there,

but the old man was, but he was dead.

And then, and then this guard,

he was in there with me and he got speared to death

and I thought I was going to get speared to death,

but then the whistle blew.

What?

(Cameron panting)

I know

I don't want this.

Oh, Houston, oh, buddy.

Yeah, poor Houston.

He was completely shattered.

Why did they have you all in the canteen?

I mean, I, I guess they realized

that Rick could discover

the secret passage out of the stable

and thought that was the safest place to keep us.

(suspenseful music)

(creature growling)

(suspenseful music)

(cat meowing)

(moves into upbeat music)

You guys really believe this stuff you're telling me?

Seriously?

It's not belief.

It is fact.

I saw what it can do with my own eyes.

It was inside of my grandfather nearly fifty years,

(Rick coughing)

til last night.

It escaped, and it's not only us that are in danger.

It's the entire human race.

We need to find it and lock it up

before it gets out of Tanrim.

Assuming what you're saying is true,

which I don't know, I don't know.

What's gonna happen to this boy?

Is he gonna be all right?

It's hard to say, professor.

Possession affects different people differently.

Your student is one of the few to survive,

he needs time to recover.

(Dr. Miller sighs)

[Dr. Miller] He needs to see someone,

he needs to see a doctor.

There is something very different this time.

In the past, the demon becomes wild

and killed half the village.

He's right, there is something different this time.

You've seen this thing get out before?

No, but it's all been recorded by my predecessors.

And if this boy is the only one to survive,

maybe he can tell us something, something new.

She's right.

She's right.

Maybe he knows something

which can help us find the demon or fight it.

(tense music)

(moves into suspenseful music)

Rick, can you talk to us?

(Rick gasping)

Easy.

Can you tell me, young man, what you remember?

I remember.

I remember.

(Rick sobbing)

Yes. I remember.

[Sanasar] What?

What? Everything.

About the Char Voki?

The demon.

What it wants.

(Rick sobbing)

It wants...

(Rick sobbing)

What?

It wants her.

(suspenseful music)

(mysterious music)

(moves into tense music)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Gevork speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Gevork speaking in foreign language)

(guard speaking in foreign language)

(tense music continues)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Gevork speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Gevork speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

This is crazy.

I mean, what are we gonna do?

Rick.

Oh, my God.

What, what happened to him?

You okay?

And then all of a sudden professor Miller shows up

and there he is.

And Houston went crazy.

[Vicki] What the hell happened to him?

You okay?

You bastard.

Listen, no, no, no. You killed Sarah!

It wasn't him. What is wrong with you?

What are you talking about? I watched him do it.

[Dr. Miller] It wasn't him.

He wasn't himself, man.

What do you mean?

What the hell happened, professor?

I don't know.

I don't know what's going on right now.

There's some kind of virus or an energy field.

And then they told me that a demon took over Rick

and that's what it was controlling him.

Now they're saying it left him and it's in somebody else.

Wait, seriously, are you insane?

I know it sounds crazy,

but Rick just experienced something terrible.

You know what?

Rick has been a pig this entire trip

and now he finally lived up to be

the murdering son of a bitch everyone knew he would be.

And you what?

You, you expect us to believe he's possessed by some demon?

That's stupid.

It's true.

What?

This is all true.

We here in Tanrim know it to be.

Perfect, she's in on it too.

Well, if it's true

then how do we know that he's not still possessed?

It's okay.

I'm not going to hurt you.

(suspenseful music)

This mark.

This is what's behind

after the spirit leaves the body

and possesses someone else.

So, this thing that's possessing Rick

it's just in somebody else now?

Hold on a second.

Possession?

Really?

I mean, who do you think we are?

I know it sounds crazy, we all thought the same thing.

But But what?

But I'm not making this stuff up.

Wait, hold on, hold on, hold on.

The old man that was in that pit, he was possessed,

and when he grabbed Rick's arm that possessed him?

Rick.

Is any of this crap true?

Oh, my God.

I wanna go home.

So now like, like, where is this thing now?

Like, what are they going to do about it?

He can be anywhere.

In any person.

Professor, what are we gonna do?

How are we gonna get home?

Vicki, I don't know.

I'm sorry.

Look, I've only read about stuff like this in books.

I know we gotta get outta here.

We gotta get him some medical attention.

Guys, where's Karen? Last time I seen her,

she was on the wall with demon boy.

(Dr. Miller grunting and clapping)

All right, listen, we're gonna get through this

and we're gonna get through this together, okay?

First you guys have to eat, especially Cameron and Rick,

you guys look terrible, all right?

We need to get you some food.

Miss? Melek.

Melek, could you? Yes, of course, I get food.

Thank you.

Listen, we are all leaving together, okay?

I'm gonna go look for Karen, stay here.

[Vicki] Well, do we have a choice?

I mean, we're held like prisoners in here.

Which is for your protection.

Guys, this is probably the safest place to be right now.

You shouldn't go out, too dangerous.

(suspenseful music)

I guess you're right.

(mysterious creepy music)

(mysterious haunted music)

(moves into suspenseful music)

(blows thudding)

So I'm making my way through the village

and I see these two guards fighting.

(guards grunting)

And one of them was the guy that Rick grabbed

and jumped off the wall.

And the other one, I didn't know.

And it looked like they were trying to kill each other.

(tense music)

(blows thudding) (guards grunting)

I thought one of them saw me, so I ran.

(guards shouting)

(tense music)

(guard shouts)

And I kept running until I found a place to hide.

(tense music)

And then I had sort of like a vision.

(suspenseful music)

It was like, I could see where this guard was going

and he was coming for me.

(suspenseful music continues)

And then he was there.

Well, what happened?

I held my breath and I hid, and eventually he went away.

(suspenseful music)

Melek, we have to find Karen,

please help me get out of here.

There is only one other way out.

What is it?

It is backdoor.

To the canteen that is usually locked

and they would not have a guard.

I will check, follow me. Okay.

I can't lose another one of my students.

I could be making a big mistake letting you out there.

Thank you. I gotta find this girl.

Professor, please be careful.

I don't know what'd happen if something happens to you.

I'll be careful.

Guys, once we're all together, we're getting outta here.

(suspenseful music)

Uh, so the professor, he leaves out this back door

to go find Karen somehow,

leaving us all alone in this canteen.

And then Melek comes back in and locks the back door.

What we didn't realize at that point

was that there was this internal power struggle going on

between the leaders of the village,

between Sanasar and his people on one side

and Zhozef and his men on the other.

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Demir speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Demir speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(tense music)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Demir speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Zhozef speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(suspenseful music)

(Demir speaking in foreign language)

(Sanasar speaking in foreign language)

(Demir speaking in foreign language)

(mysterious creepy music)

(mysterious haunted music)

I was lost in this maze of a village,

but somehow knew where I was supposed to go.

How was that?

I don't know, like instinct.

Instinct?

And where did this instinct take you?

I went down an alleyway and I saw this door

that looks like it was unhooked

and I thought it might lead me somewhere.

So I tried to open it, but it wouldn't budge.

(tense music)

So I tried to figure out what to do next.

And then the door just opened.

By itself?

And?

So I went in,

and I found myself in this dark hallway

and I just had to see where it led.

I came upon some stairs so I went down the stairs.

Something was drawing me down there.

(mysterious music)

Are you sure you're not hungry?

I really think you should eat something.

I'm not in the mood.

[Vicki] I can't imagine what that was like.

Hell.

It was like being alive

and being in hell at the same time.

I killed Sarah.

No, no, no, it wasn't you, Rick.

It was me.

[Vicki] It was

I remember everything.

It was like I saw the whole thing through a mask.

I felt evil.

It felt good and I liked it,

even though I hated it.

I wanted it to stop, I just couldn't.

I couldn't.

I just keep seeing me throwing her over the edge,

over and over.

And I just can't get it out of my head.

Rick looked awful.

He looked like hell, and that's exactly how he described

what happened to him.

At this point, I actually started to feel sorry for him.

For Rick.

Oh, Rick.

It must've been awful.

I could use one of those vodka drinks.

Are you sure that's a good idea?

I mean, honestly, I don't, I don't think it's a bad idea.

It might take the edge off.

Does anybody else want a drink?

Yeah, I'll take one.

(soft music)

I don't know what I'm gonna do.

What to tell her parents.

And what are we going to do about him?

Get him arrested?

Or do I have to kill him myself?

I mean, this is just horrible, but, I mean,

I know you're kidding about killing Rick, right?

Right?

Are you actually buying into this possession crap?

(tense music)

(mysterious haunted music)

(guards speaking in foreign language)

Professor Miller, what are you doing out here?

Are you trying to get yourself killed?

I told you I have to find my students.

I have to make sure my kids are safe.

Your own safety is at risk.

Come on. Come, come come.

Sanasar told professor Miller

the story about the guy who ran in front of the bus

and what made him run,

and it turns out it was the old man who grabbed Rick.

(guard screaming) (suspenseful music)

There are a lot of people looking for around the village,

the possessed guard.

It's not safe for you to be roaming the streets.

Listen, I have one missing student,

I have one with serious health issues

that I need to get to the hospital.

You need

You know that is not possible at this time.

Why is that not possible?

We're not a threat to you, we're not a threat to your men.

Listen to me.

We don't know what is the greater purpose

of the Char Voki is.

Just that it wants to get out.

Until he's locked up, no one,

no one can leave or enter the village.

Well, what are, what are we supposed to do?

Do you even have a plan?

You are an educated man.

And I know from your work, you don't believe in fate.

I don't believe in fate

and I definitely don't believe in the supernatural.

And yet here you are.

What do you think, that's by luck?

You are here a day when the Char Voki has escaped?

What are you trying to say?

You're saying I had something to do with this?

Not you personally. My students then?

I don't know.

Listen, we were on the road

when your man stepped in front of our bus.

That was Zonavor.

Yesterday, something woke the demon.

And I believe that Zonavor saw that and that's why he ran.

I don't know about your story, okay?

But the one thing that I do know

is the most dangerous and violent people

always say they're on a mission from God.

Professor Miller, what the people of Tanrim do

is selfless and noble, keeping the world safe from evil.

All right, all right, all right.

I think you've got enough of that stuff, dude.

He's had enough?

I think I've had enough, of him.

Houston! What, he's a piece of trash.

And to tell you the truth I'm sick of the sight of him.

Whoa, dude, you need to relax.

How much of that stuff have you had?

Well, they both had too much to drink

and then it got ugly.

No dude, don't you see what this loser's doing?

Acting like he's been possessed by some demon

so he can literally get away with murder?

Houston! Seriously?

Are you really gonna go there to there?

[Laney] Why would Rick do that?

You don't think I know

you messed around with Sarah in Istanbul?

(suspenseful music)

(Vicki screams)

(hammer thuds)

There is no fighting in here!

You selfless nobs, I'll knock your heads in myself.

There's no more to talk about.

You're acting like idiots.

(Rick laughing)

Sit down.

Sit down.

No.

All right, Sanasar, can this, can this thing be killed?

Can it be destroyed?

No, we don't think so.

So then why, why do your men carry spears?

What's the purpose?

Spears use against the demon.

Against the people possessed by it.

You may see the steel types.

It's made, steel with Vahalium.

Vahalium? Yes.

I don't know what that is.

It's a rare and unique metal

that was discovered centuries ago.

Vahalium cannot kill the Char Voki,

but it can hurt it and slow it down.

Otherwise, people possessed can be shot,

stabbed, and burned and nothing happens.

With Vahalium steel we can slow it down

until lock it up in the keep.

The bars are made with the same metal.

Okay, so then why do you burn the bodies of the dead?

Just to make sure.

(suspenseful music)

(mysterious haunted music)

(moves into tense music)

Are you okay?

Houston. Houston.

Houston, where are you going?

Houston! Houston!

(students screaming)

(Melek speaking foreign language)

[Vicki] Houston, stop!

(Sargis speaking foreign language)

Come on, man, let's just go back inside.

It's not worth it. Houston, please.

It was such a mess.

I, I really don't know what Houston was trying to do.

He just kind of lost it.

and we were all outside,

except for Kevin and Laney and Rick.

But then Laney came outside.

(suspenseful music)

I went down further and had no idea where I was going.

(suspenseful music)

And then I had this really bad feeling.

And then, then I had another one of those visions

where I could see the guard who was chasing me.

(suspenseful music)

This time he was headed to the canteen.

And something really bad was about to happen there.

I had to get there.

(suspenseful music)

(Sargis speaking in foreign language)

Come back, inside is not worth it.

No, everything is just so screwed up, I just, I can'to

Houston, please. Yeah, come on, dude.

[Melek] Houston, noo

(Sargis speaking in foreign language)

[Vicki] Houston, stop!

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music continues)

[Narrator] Next time on "Evil Touch."

Professor, what are we gonna do?

We need to get out of here.

Well, how?

Stop it!

What are you doing, man?

Are you trying to get yourself killed?

Houston, this is crazy.

This is crazy?

This whole place is crazy.

I like to think that science can explain this phenomenon.

What do you think?

The world is only that you can see, touch, or measure?

Believe me, there's more.

And some of it is very, very bad.

(Zhozef screaming) (guard grunting)

Oh, my God.

(eerie music)

(eerie music continues)

(victim screaming)
