WEBVTT

00:00:13.643 --> 00:00:17.313
- In a faith built
on the cycling of Elements,

00:00:17.355 --> 00:00:19.441
there is no greater sin

00:00:19.482 --> 00:00:22.736
than bringing life back
to the dead.

00:00:22.777 --> 00:00:24.654
- Where's Sasha?
- I told her to run.

00:00:24.696 --> 00:00:26.197
- Do you have any idea
what they'll do to you

00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:27.407
if they find out
that you helped?

00:00:27.449 --> 00:00:28.366
- I'm not sorry.

00:00:28.408 --> 00:00:29.617
- Where's Guardian Tanner?

00:00:29.659 --> 00:00:32.370
- Guardian Tanner died
in a Strigoi attack.

00:00:32.412 --> 00:00:34.247
- Rose and I
remembered everything.

00:00:34.289 --> 00:00:35.665
Their parents were there.

00:00:35.707 --> 00:00:37.167
They murdered my family.

00:00:37.208 --> 00:00:38.835
- Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:00:38.877 --> 00:00:40.128
- Someone
inside the Royal Court

00:00:40.170 --> 00:00:43.006
is conspiring with Strigoi
to take Lissa out.

00:00:43.048 --> 00:00:44.591
- When your family died,

00:00:44.632 --> 00:00:46.760
I kept thinking
we could preserve

00:00:46.801 --> 00:00:50.638
some little part of that life
before the crash, but we can't.

00:00:50.680 --> 00:00:53.349
We both need to find our way
without each other.

00:00:53.391 --> 00:00:55.435
- Rose, what does that mean?

00:00:55.477 --> 00:00:56.686
- I have to get out of here.

00:00:56.728 --> 00:00:58.480
Remember when you offered
to go with me?

00:00:58.521 --> 00:01:00.482
I was just wondering
if the offer still stands.

00:01:00.565 --> 00:01:02.776
- I only wish Sonya was here
to celebrate with us.

00:01:02.817 --> 00:01:03.860
- We spoke.

00:01:03.902 --> 00:01:05.195
She said this was all worth it.

00:01:05.236 --> 00:01:06.863
- We have shamed the Elements

00:01:06.905 --> 00:01:08.406
with the choice
of Victor Dashkov

00:01:08.448 --> 00:01:10.200
during these Trials.

00:01:17.248 --> 00:01:21.669
- Victor lied about his health.

00:01:21.711 --> 00:01:23.671
And what
of his Strigoi daughter?

00:01:23.713 --> 00:01:25.924
How can we trust him
to rule the Dominion

00:01:25.965 --> 00:01:28.676
when he can't even
rule his household?

00:01:28.718 --> 00:01:31.638
Will he even be around to rule?

00:01:37.227 --> 00:01:38.812
People are worried

00:01:38.853 --> 00:01:41.397
their province will be
the next St. Jude,

00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:43.650
that their brother,
wife, or child

00:01:43.691 --> 00:01:46.027
will become
the next Strigoi victim,

00:01:46.069 --> 00:01:47.112
or worse,

00:01:47.153 --> 00:01:49.072
become a monster
to defend against,

00:01:49.114 --> 00:01:50.990
like Sonya Karp.

00:01:53.284 --> 00:01:53.326
- If anyone knew about Sonya,

00:01:53.326 --> 00:01:54.994
- Of course people are scared.

00:01:55.036 --> 00:01:56.371
Who can blame them?

00:01:56.412 --> 00:01:59.249
Our very future is on the line.

00:01:59.290 --> 00:02:01.960
We need to fix this
before we cannot.

00:02:05.463 --> 00:02:08.466
We must act
when it matters most.

00:02:08.508 --> 00:02:11.052
And that time is now.

00:02:12.595 --> 00:02:15.390
Call upon me,

00:02:15.431 --> 00:02:16.766
and I shall serve.

00:02:30.363 --> 00:02:31.990
all:
Our queen! Our queen!

00:02:39.289 --> 00:02:41.749
- We're *ed.
Aren't we, Herald?

00:02:41.791 --> 00:02:44.627
- Indeed we are,
Your Majesty.

00:03:32.508 --> 00:03:33.801
- Lissa.

00:03:35.303 --> 00:03:36.721
- Mia, I'm so sorry.

00:03:36.763 --> 00:03:38.598
- You have to stop.

00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:40.016
The healing,
all of it.

00:03:40.058 --> 00:03:41.476
I saw you with Dean.

00:03:41.517 --> 00:03:43.311
- I don't know
what you think you saw,

00:03:43.353 --> 00:03:44.520
but that's crazy.

00:03:44.562 --> 00:03:46.064
No one can do that.
- You can.

00:03:47.482 --> 00:03:48.691
And so could Sonya.

00:03:48.733 --> 00:03:50.485
My family thought
that she was the only one,

00:03:50.526 --> 00:03:51.778
and then I saw you.

00:03:51.819 --> 00:03:54.489
- Okay, Mia,
if anyone found out--

00:03:54.530 --> 00:03:56.866
- I haven't told anyone.

00:03:56.908 --> 00:03:58.201
But, Lissa,
the more Sonya healed,

00:03:58.243 --> 00:03:59.869
the worse she got.

00:03:59.911 --> 00:04:03.164
She hated
seeing anyone in pain.

00:04:03.206 --> 00:04:04.582
Even me.

00:04:04.624 --> 00:04:06.751
Even though
I wasn't always nice.

00:04:08.336 --> 00:04:10.129
She deserved better.

00:04:12.173 --> 00:04:13.216
And so do you.

00:04:13.258 --> 00:04:16.928
- But I'm not like
you and Christian.

00:04:16.970 --> 00:04:19.305
What if this power
is my only way to fight?

00:04:19.347 --> 00:04:20.556
- It's not worth it.

00:04:20.598 --> 00:04:21.975
- Mia, look,
I know you're upset,

00:04:22.016 --> 00:04:24.143
but you don't--
- Of course I'm upset!

00:04:24.185 --> 00:04:25.186
Papa is livid.

00:04:25.228 --> 00:04:28.147
Dad lied about
Sonya being missing.

00:04:28.189 --> 00:04:30.650
I know that my dad
did a terrible thing.

00:04:30.692 --> 00:04:34.112
And even though I am furious,

00:04:34.153 --> 00:04:37.991
I can't stand
to see him this way.

00:04:38.032 --> 00:04:40.535
I can't.

00:04:40.576 --> 00:04:42.453
I * can't.

00:05:04.976 --> 00:05:07.395
- Guardian Belikov.

00:05:08.855 --> 00:05:10.273
- Commander Croft.

00:05:10.315 --> 00:05:12.859
It's an honor.

00:05:12.900 --> 00:05:16.154
- You are under arrest
for treason.

00:05:28.708 --> 00:05:30.835
- Your
Majesty, it's madness.

00:05:30.877 --> 00:05:32.962
- Open brawling in the streets.
- And it's getting worse.

00:05:33.004 --> 00:05:34.422
- If Your Majesty desires

00:05:34.464 --> 00:05:36.174
a Dominion tomorrow
to wake up to,

00:05:36.215 --> 00:05:38.051
you must take action.

00:05:39.260 --> 00:05:41.095
Take action?

00:05:41.137 --> 00:05:43.973
To quell the madness
you wrought yourselves?

00:05:44.015 --> 00:05:46.184
Everyone knows
my days are numbered.

00:05:46.225 --> 00:05:48.186
Just what would you have me do?

00:05:48.227 --> 00:05:49.771
- Officially disavow Victor.

00:05:49.812 --> 00:05:51.189
Your support still matters

00:05:51.230 --> 00:05:54.567
and can unite the Dominion
behind a worthy successor.

00:05:54.609 --> 00:05:56.652
- The Council
can release a statement

00:05:56.694 --> 00:05:58.279
contesting the Trials

00:05:58.321 --> 00:06:00.573
and confirming me as queen,

00:06:00.615 --> 00:06:04.243
which means,
Your Majesty,

00:06:04.285 --> 00:06:07.705
you are free to step down.

00:06:07.747 --> 00:06:11.876
You may rest easy
with your legacy in my hands.

00:06:11.918 --> 00:06:13.086
- No.

00:06:15.880 --> 00:06:20.093
The Elements did not
choose you, Tatiana.

00:06:20.134 --> 00:06:23.388
I may not like it,
but they chose Victor.

00:06:23.429 --> 00:06:25.014
He won the Trials.

00:06:25.056 --> 00:06:26.599
Per the church,
he is king.

00:06:29.685 --> 00:06:31.229
- Guardian Belikov.

00:06:31.270 --> 00:06:34.399
Now in the matter of the
Caroni Village resettlement,

00:06:34.440 --> 00:06:36.150
aside from the Strigoi attack,

00:06:36.192 --> 00:06:40.988
you claim that the mission
was completed without fault.

00:06:41.030 --> 00:06:42.615
Is that true?

00:06:46.244 --> 00:06:50.665
You also state
that Guardian Sasha Tanner,

00:06:50.706 --> 00:06:52.417
with whom you were charged
with remanding,

00:06:52.458 --> 00:06:54.502
died in battle.

00:06:54.544 --> 00:06:56.462
Is that true?

00:07:02.427 --> 00:07:03.761
Guardian Belikov,

00:07:03.803 --> 00:07:06.973
the punishment for treason
is very serious.

00:07:12.645 --> 00:07:15.815
- I stand by my statement.

00:07:18.109 --> 00:07:20.736
- Very well.

00:07:20.778 --> 00:07:22.822
I hope you know
what you're doing.

00:07:24.490 --> 00:07:25.575
Take him away.

00:07:32.248 --> 00:07:35.126
And bring Guardian Tanner in.

00:07:36.919 --> 00:07:40.798
It'll be very interesting
to hear what she has to say

00:07:40.840 --> 00:07:42.800
now that we've heard
your side of the story.

00:07:42.842 --> 00:07:44.635
Put him under house arrest.

00:07:59.442 --> 00:08:01.277
Sit.

00:08:04.739 --> 00:08:06.824
- Hey, kiddo.

00:08:06.866 --> 00:08:08.075
Come and have a seat.

00:08:10.161 --> 00:08:11.120
I've been thinking.

00:08:11.162 --> 00:08:12.538
I know you're blue
about Lissa--

00:08:12.580 --> 00:08:14.957
- I know you've been working
with my parents.

00:08:14.999 --> 00:08:17.668
Is that why you've been so nice
to me this whole time?

00:08:17.710 --> 00:08:19.128
- Honey,
you're not making any sense.

00:08:19.170 --> 00:08:22.048
- Please don't add another lie
to the pile.

00:08:22.089 --> 00:08:24.842
Just tell me.

00:08:24.884 --> 00:08:29.639
Have you just been using me
to get to Lissa?

00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:31.766
- You got it all wrong.

00:08:36.395 --> 00:08:39.190
Your parents love you.

00:08:39.232 --> 00:08:42.026
Why they wanted
the Dragomirs off the throne,

00:08:42.068 --> 00:08:43.402
I can't tell you.

00:08:43.444 --> 00:08:47.073
But one thing I do know...

00:08:47.114 --> 00:08:49.158
they miss you

00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:52.328
and just wanna
be together again.

00:08:55.373 --> 00:08:57.166
You know,
the Moroi say

00:08:57.208 --> 00:09:01.712
becoming Strigoi is
a fate worse than death.

00:09:01.754 --> 00:09:05.007
But if you ask the Strigoi,

00:09:05.049 --> 00:09:07.760
they call it the Awakening.

00:09:10.429 --> 00:09:12.515
- What do you mean?

00:09:12.557 --> 00:09:16.018
- It's like you've been
sleepwalking your whole life.

00:09:16.060 --> 00:09:18.563
Everything's more intense--

00:09:18.604 --> 00:09:21.983
colors, sounds, touch.

00:09:24.318 --> 00:09:26.320
And you never get old.

00:09:29.031 --> 00:09:32.326
- You want them to turn you.

00:09:35.496 --> 00:09:40.042
All I'm saying is
you have options.

00:09:40.084 --> 00:09:43.838
You don't have
to be alone ever again

00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:45.339
if you don't want to be.

00:09:48.843 --> 00:09:51.178
I've seen how everyone's
treated you here.

00:09:54.807 --> 00:09:57.727
You deserve better.

00:10:05.693 --> 00:10:08.779
- I want you
to give them a message.

00:10:08.821 --> 00:10:10.823
Tell them...

00:10:14.285 --> 00:10:16.287
I'm ready to talk.

00:10:50.112 --> 00:10:52.281
- I'm the one
that helped Sasha escape.

00:10:52.323 --> 00:10:55.159
- Sasha chose this.
It's not on you.

00:10:55.201 --> 00:10:56.410
What did you tell them?

00:10:56.452 --> 00:10:57.870
- What do you think?

00:10:57.912 --> 00:10:59.664
Nothing.

00:10:59.705 --> 00:11:00.956
- Keep it that way.

00:11:14.804 --> 00:11:17.556
What's going to happen to her?

00:11:17.598 --> 00:11:19.558
- It's in the hands of HQ now.

00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:21.727
Nothing either of us can do.

00:11:21.769 --> 00:11:23.521
- And that?
- The tracker?

00:11:23.562 --> 00:11:24.939
It's nothing.

00:11:24.980 --> 00:11:27.817
Just due process
and proper safeguards.

00:11:27.858 --> 00:11:30.027
I'll be fine
once all this blows over.

00:11:30.069 --> 00:11:32.405
- HQ doesn't let things
"blow over."

00:11:32.446 --> 00:11:35.866
- The Dominion needs all
the Guardians it has right now.

00:11:35.908 --> 00:11:38.452
I'm not entirely without value.

00:11:40.579 --> 00:11:44.750
- If that was a brag, you need
to step up your game, comrade.

00:11:44.792 --> 00:11:47.211
- Hard to brag to the woman
who gave me a black eye.

00:11:48.713 --> 00:11:50.423
- Sorry about that.

00:11:50.464 --> 00:11:53.259
- Forget it, Roza.

00:12:05.813 --> 00:12:07.273
- Are all of these about--

00:12:07.314 --> 00:12:08.899
- Humans.

00:12:08.941 --> 00:12:09.900
Biographies.

00:12:09.942 --> 00:12:12.027
My way of seeing the world.

00:12:21.662 --> 00:12:24.540
Having a staring contest
with the air, are we?

00:13:00.534 --> 00:13:03.120
- I guess
I'll see you around then.

00:13:05.122 --> 00:13:07.750
- Yeah.

00:13:07.792 --> 00:13:10.711
See you around.

00:13:39.824 --> 00:13:44.703
- Victor lied
about his health.

00:13:44.745 --> 00:13:47.081
And what
of his Strigoi daughter?

00:13:47.122 --> 00:13:49.291
How can we trust him
to rule the Dominion

00:13:49.333 --> 00:13:52.086
when he can't even
rule his household?

00:14:10.771 --> 00:14:14.191
- So the rumors are true.

00:14:14.233 --> 00:14:15.860
You're not well.

00:14:18.070 --> 00:14:20.906
- Don't look too kingly now,
do I?

00:14:20.948 --> 00:14:24.159
I survived campaign season,

00:14:24.201 --> 00:14:26.245
won the Trials.

00:14:26.287 --> 00:14:27.329
Even the church--

00:14:27.371 --> 00:14:29.540
is on my side now apparently.

00:14:29.582 --> 00:14:32.126
But the irony is,

00:14:32.167 --> 00:14:36.547
I can't claim victory
because my body is failing me.

00:14:36.589 --> 00:14:40.259
I could have
united the Dominion.

00:14:40.301 --> 00:14:43.470
But it's over.

00:14:43.512 --> 00:14:44.763
Tatiana will be queen.

00:14:44.805 --> 00:14:47.892
And I'd hoped
to find peace for us all,

00:14:47.933 --> 00:14:52.521
but now
I can't even find my own

00:14:52.563 --> 00:14:54.106
after Sonya.

00:14:56.275 --> 00:14:57.860
- But you have to know
that what happened

00:14:57.902 --> 00:14:59.403
wasn't your fault.

00:14:59.445 --> 00:15:00.654
You can't beat yourself up

00:15:00.696 --> 00:15:02.615
for something
you couldn't possibly control.

00:15:02.656 --> 00:15:04.158
- How would you know?

00:15:06.827 --> 00:15:09.288
- I know it may sound crazy,

00:15:09.330 --> 00:15:12.333
but there is a reason
Sonya was the way she was.

00:15:15.502 --> 00:15:19.673
I think she have had
a special magic called Spirit.

00:15:20.925 --> 00:15:24.053
The Fifth Element.

00:15:25.679 --> 00:15:27.389
- What did you say?

00:15:29.808 --> 00:15:32.978
- That's why
she never specialized.

00:15:33.020 --> 00:15:35.773
But she could do things
like heal,

00:15:35.814 --> 00:15:39.902
maybe even dream walk
or see auras.

00:15:39.944 --> 00:15:42.237
But with the good comes...

00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:44.531
- The Darkness.

00:15:44.573 --> 00:15:46.951
That's what she called it.

00:15:46.992 --> 00:15:49.161
Those times
when she was troubled

00:15:49.203 --> 00:15:51.205
and there was nothing
we could do to stop it.

00:15:51.246 --> 00:15:53.707
- That's what happens
when you use Spirit.

00:15:53.749 --> 00:15:55.668
It must have just gotten
to be too much,

00:15:55.709 --> 00:15:57.378
and that's why she...

00:15:58.837 --> 00:16:02.174
It may not have even
been a conscious choice.

00:16:02.216 --> 00:16:05.219
She may have just wanted
to make the pain stop.

00:16:10.516 --> 00:16:12.893
- How could you know this?

00:16:16.772 --> 00:16:19.400
- Because I'm like Sonya.

00:16:21.735 --> 00:16:24.530
I have Spirit too.

00:16:28.659 --> 00:16:30.786
- Does that mean
you can also heal?

00:16:33.580 --> 00:16:35.958
- Sonya was healing you?

00:16:44.883 --> 00:16:46.260
- Mia.

00:16:55.019 --> 00:16:57.896
- I bought her a bracelet.

00:16:57.938 --> 00:17:00.649
I was gonna give it to her
for her birthday,

00:17:00.691 --> 00:17:03.068
but they only told me
that it was ready yesterday.

00:17:03.110 --> 00:17:05.487
I just had--
- I'm so sorry.

00:17:08.032 --> 00:17:10.576
Is there anything I can--
- No, there's nothing.

00:17:13.662 --> 00:17:15.956
We've lost her.

00:17:17.374 --> 00:17:18.250
And I know I've probably
just made it worse

00:17:18.292 --> 00:17:20.377
by saying something today
of all days.

00:17:20.419 --> 00:17:23.881
I'm so sorry, Mia.

00:17:23.922 --> 00:17:27.176
- Don't be.

00:17:27.217 --> 00:17:28.260
I just--

00:17:28.302 --> 00:17:31.180
my papa is heading out of town

00:17:31.221 --> 00:17:33.557
for the treaty re-signing.

00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:35.851
As a diplomat,
he has to go, even--

00:17:37.644 --> 00:17:40.439
Even with all this, so...

00:17:40.481 --> 00:17:41.982
- Right, right.

00:17:44.777 --> 00:17:48.947
But if you need to talk...

00:17:48.989 --> 00:17:51.075
I'll be in the Cistern later.

00:18:18.227 --> 00:18:21.605
- And you knew
about the Darkness.

00:18:21.647 --> 00:18:24.066
You knew using her magic
would hurt her,

00:18:24.108 --> 00:18:26.610
but you just kept on
letting her heal you.

00:18:26.652 --> 00:18:28.362
- I asked her to stop,
but she wouldn't.

00:18:28.403 --> 00:18:30.489
- Because she couldn't heal
a dying man,

00:18:30.531 --> 00:18:32.199
no matter how much
of herself she gave.

00:18:32.241 --> 00:18:33.909
You should have refused.

00:18:33.951 --> 00:18:35.828
- She insisted.

00:18:35.869 --> 00:18:38.455
After Mikhail, she was afraid
to lose anyone else.

00:18:40.207 --> 00:18:43.127
Sonya never had it easy,
but her real trouble started

00:18:43.168 --> 00:18:45.045
after those damn treatments
and therapies

00:18:45.087 --> 00:18:47.005
when she didn't specialize.

00:18:47.047 --> 00:18:49.383
She was never the same after.

00:18:49.424 --> 00:18:52.344
As king, I can make sure
people like Sonya and you

00:18:52.386 --> 00:18:54.555
don't have to hide anymore.

00:18:54.596 --> 00:18:56.306
Imagine
what would happen to you

00:18:56.348 --> 00:19:00.144
if you were exposed as a Spirit
User under Tatiana's reign.

00:19:00.185 --> 00:19:03.063
There'd be nowhere to hide
if anyone ever found out.

00:19:11.989 --> 00:19:14.116
It's okay.

00:19:14.158 --> 00:19:16.243
Listen, I just--

00:19:16.285 --> 00:19:18.537
I just need to get
through the coronation.

00:19:18.579 --> 00:19:20.164
After that,
the stress will abate,

00:19:20.205 --> 00:19:22.791
and I'll be better,
if you help me.

00:19:22.833 --> 00:19:25.085
- And what happens next time
when you start to fail again?

00:19:25.127 --> 00:19:27.462
How can you ask me after Sonya?

00:19:27.504 --> 00:19:30.132
- If there were
any other way...

00:19:30.174 --> 00:19:33.719
But it's that or Tatiana wins.

00:19:35.846 --> 00:19:37.014
- Even if I wanted to,

00:19:37.055 --> 00:19:40.100
I'm on meds
to suppress my magic.

00:19:40.142 --> 00:19:42.811
So it'd take hours
to clear my system.

00:19:56.200 --> 00:19:57.618
- Then I'll see you
in a few hours.

00:20:00.704 --> 00:20:02.206
- Victor, wha--

00:20:02.247 --> 00:20:03.957
Victor, wait!

00:20:16.261 --> 00:20:17.346
- You better get changed.

00:20:17.387 --> 00:20:20.057
We've got fight training in...

00:20:20.098 --> 00:20:22.809
If you're doing what I think
you're doing, you're insane.

00:20:22.851 --> 00:20:24.061
- I know
I should have told you--

00:20:24.102 --> 00:20:26.855
- I don't care
that you didn't tell me.

00:20:26.897 --> 00:20:29.775
I care about my best friend
getting thrown in the dungeons

00:20:29.816 --> 00:20:32.152
for going AWOL.

00:20:32.194 --> 00:20:33.820
Or worse, getting killed
by some rando Strigoi

00:20:33.862 --> 00:20:35.405
in the human world.

00:20:35.447 --> 00:20:37.699
- We'll be okay.
- "We"?

00:20:37.741 --> 00:20:40.285
Anyone with eyes can see
how she feels about Dimitri.

00:20:40.327 --> 00:20:41.870
- She asked me to go with her.

00:20:41.912 --> 00:20:43.705
Rose is with me now.

00:20:43.747 --> 00:20:46.541
- Then why did I just see her
coming out of his apartment?

00:20:46.583 --> 00:20:47.751
- Sweet.

00:20:49.586 --> 00:20:53.465
- You deserve someone
who loves you.

00:20:53.507 --> 00:20:54.800
The way you feel about Rose,

00:20:54.841 --> 00:20:56.718
that is
how she feels about Dimitri.

00:20:56.760 --> 00:20:59.930
She can't help that
any more than you can.

00:20:59.972 --> 00:21:02.766
I'm sorry, but you're gonna
have to face the truth.

00:21:04.017 --> 00:21:05.769
- Like you're so truthful.

00:21:07.604 --> 00:21:10.148
If you think that I'm buying
all this family leave time,

00:21:10.190 --> 00:21:12.401
I'm not.

00:21:12.442 --> 00:21:14.611
I don't know what you do
when you go

00:21:14.653 --> 00:21:17.531
or where you go,

00:21:17.572 --> 00:21:20.200
but I know it's not hanging out
with your mom at a commune.

00:21:23.662 --> 00:21:27.124
Oh, you think you're the
only one who notices things?

00:21:28.709 --> 00:21:33.046
- I'm not saying
you're not being truthful.

00:21:33.088 --> 00:21:37.384
Just that you can't see what's
right in front of your eyes.

00:21:37.426 --> 00:21:39.928
Rose doesn't love you.

00:21:50.605 --> 00:21:51.857
*.

00:21:59.698 --> 00:22:03.118
- Guardian Belikov,
it appears you either lied

00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:05.871
in your mission report
that Guardian Tanner was dead

00:22:05.912 --> 00:22:08.457
or someone else led you
to believe she was.

00:22:08.498 --> 00:22:10.459
And with your spotless record

00:22:10.500 --> 00:22:12.586
and insistence
that you stand by your story,

00:22:12.627 --> 00:22:15.714
I have to ask...

00:22:15.756 --> 00:22:17.257
are you lying?

00:22:20.302 --> 00:22:23.680
Or are you covering
for another Guardian?

00:22:23.722 --> 00:22:24.973
Or both?

00:22:31.021 --> 00:22:33.565
- I was the commanding officer.

00:22:33.607 --> 00:22:35.984
I was responsible
for the veracity

00:22:36.026 --> 00:22:38.862
of the information I relayed.

00:22:38.904 --> 00:22:42.824
Any gap between my report
and the truth

00:22:42.866 --> 00:22:45.369
rests solely on me,

00:22:45.410 --> 00:22:48.455
as should the punishment
for giving false information.

00:22:50.374 --> 00:22:53.460
- You haven't
answered my question.

00:22:53.502 --> 00:22:55.379
- I have nothing further
to say.

00:22:59.341 --> 00:23:00.967
Though I wonder

00:23:01.009 --> 00:23:03.678
at your prioritizing
punishing a Guardian

00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:05.430
during a time of civil unrest.

00:23:05.472 --> 00:23:07.265
- How can we expect
any kind of order

00:23:07.307 --> 00:23:09.684
if we allow a Guardian
to disobey?

00:23:09.726 --> 00:23:12.270
Guardian Belikov,
you have me no choice.

00:23:12.312 --> 00:23:15.190
I declare you guilty
of treason.

00:23:15.232 --> 00:23:16.691
You'll be taken to the dungeons

00:23:16.733 --> 00:23:18.568
until you are sentenced
by the Queen.

00:23:21.363 --> 00:23:23.407
May the Saints
have mercy on you.

00:24:13.915 --> 00:24:15.459
"Plans changed"?

00:24:24.384 --> 00:24:25.886
- Ma'am,
we're in the weeds out there.

00:24:25.927 --> 00:24:27.929
Five more altercations
in the past hour.

00:24:29.473 --> 00:24:32.517
Reassign ward units three,
five, and six to town square.

00:24:32.559 --> 00:24:34.561
Tell wards to move
to rotating patrols.

00:24:34.603 --> 00:24:35.812
- Yes, ma'am.
- Nobody gets in right now.

00:24:35.854 --> 00:24:38.857
- Please,
just let me talk to her.

00:24:38.899 --> 00:24:40.859
- Let him through.

00:24:40.901 --> 00:24:42.527
- I got another one.
- We're slammed.

00:24:42.569 --> 00:24:44.446
It'll have to wait.
- But it can't.

00:24:44.488 --> 00:24:46.406
They wanted Sonya Karp.

00:24:46.448 --> 00:24:47.699
- Well,
that isn't going to happen.

00:24:47.741 --> 00:24:49.284
- Yeah, but they have something
that we want!

00:24:49.326 --> 00:24:50.702
- What?

00:24:52.245 --> 00:24:54.289
Mia?

00:24:57.834 --> 00:25:00.962
We knew they were starting
to coordinate their attacks,

00:25:01.004 --> 00:25:03.715
but this must be
some kind of a prank.

00:25:03.757 --> 00:25:07.802
Strigoi don't write notes
and bargain.

00:25:07.844 --> 00:25:09.638
They aren't this sophisticated.

00:25:09.679 --> 00:25:13.934
- Well, maybe we've
had them all wrong.

00:25:13.975 --> 00:25:16.561
I mean, yes, of course
they're violent and even feral,

00:25:16.603 --> 00:25:18.855
but they're more than that.

00:25:18.897 --> 00:25:21.149
- Well, we've just missed
that for centuries, huh?

00:25:21.191 --> 00:25:22.442
- I don't know.

00:25:22.484 --> 00:25:23.818
Maybe they've evolved.

00:25:23.860 --> 00:25:26.613
Maybe they've always been more
than what we knew.

00:25:26.655 --> 00:25:29.282
The only ones we meet, we kill.
- Before they kill us.

00:25:29.324 --> 00:25:32.035
Look,
even if they could bargain,

00:25:32.077 --> 00:25:33.078
I wouldn't trust 'em.

00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:34.579
This is not happening.

00:25:37.666 --> 00:25:39.334
- When I met my mother,

00:25:39.376 --> 00:25:43.922
she spoke
and sounded like herself.

00:25:43.964 --> 00:25:45.674
Her old self.

00:25:45.715 --> 00:25:47.842
Alberta, I think this is real.

00:25:47.884 --> 00:25:50.845
I think they don't want Sonya
to be killed.

00:25:50.887 --> 00:25:53.223
- Then that's too bad for them.

00:25:53.265 --> 00:25:55.767
I'm not walking into an ambush.

00:25:58.478 --> 00:26:00.689
- With Mia out there?

00:26:00.730 --> 00:26:03.191
What happened
to "they come first"?

00:26:26.006 --> 00:26:27.465
- Hello?

00:26:27.507 --> 00:26:30.218
James, if you're
still out there, please!

00:26:56.328 --> 00:26:59.873
- You know what that means.

00:26:59.914 --> 00:27:01.333
- I thought
you got what you wanted

00:27:01.374 --> 00:27:03.043
when I remembered the accident.

00:27:03.084 --> 00:27:04.169
- Oh, come on.

00:27:04.210 --> 00:27:05.879
You're a little happy
to see me.

00:27:08.506 --> 00:27:11.926
- Except it means
the drugs are out of my system.

00:27:11.968 --> 00:27:14.679
- Is that so bad?

00:27:14.721 --> 00:27:16.806
- If Sonya's any indicator.

00:27:16.848 --> 00:27:18.391
Apparently, my magic
makes people want

00:27:18.433 --> 00:27:21.269
to burn me at the stake
and me want to turn Strigoi.

00:27:21.311 --> 00:27:24.522
- And makes you able
to sway people and heal them.

00:27:24.564 --> 00:27:25.774
It's not all bad.

00:27:25.815 --> 00:27:28.693
- Except when I do
those things, I hurt Rose.

00:27:28.735 --> 00:27:30.070
And I'm trapped in here

00:27:30.111 --> 00:27:31.321
with a figment
of my imagination

00:27:31.363 --> 00:27:32.781
while I wait for Victor
to come back

00:27:32.822 --> 00:27:34.491
and do who knows what--
- Wah.

00:27:37.744 --> 00:27:39.079
- Excuse me?

00:27:43.249 --> 00:27:46.336
- You know
what the secret to power is?

00:27:46.378 --> 00:27:48.129
It's making
your biggest liability

00:27:48.171 --> 00:27:49.422
your greatest strength.

00:27:52.175 --> 00:27:54.636
You have a special magic.

00:27:54.678 --> 00:27:57.389
You're gonna allow that
to make you weak?

00:27:57.430 --> 00:27:58.431
Or strong?

00:28:02.018 --> 00:28:05.146
- Sorry
to have kept you waiting.

00:28:05.188 --> 00:28:07.107
I trust
you've thought things over.

00:28:34.634 --> 00:28:36.302
Oh, Lissa.

00:28:36.344 --> 00:28:38.638
- There's nothing to discuss.

00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:40.765
You can't keep me here.

00:28:40.807 --> 00:28:44.436
And if there is anything left
of the man I knew,

00:28:44.477 --> 00:28:46.354
you'll get out of my way
and let me leave.

00:28:46.396 --> 00:28:48.732
- I'm sorry.
I can't do that.

00:28:48.773 --> 00:28:51.818
- I said let me go.

00:28:51.860 --> 00:28:54.362
- Vasilissa, please.
Think of the greater good.

00:28:54.404 --> 00:28:55.405
- You can't be serious.

00:28:55.447 --> 00:28:58.032
- Just this once.
- No.

00:29:03.747 --> 00:29:06.207
James, if you don't get out
of my way, I'm gonna--

00:29:06.249 --> 00:29:07.500
- You're gonna what?

00:29:07.542 --> 00:29:08.668
- This!

00:29:08.710 --> 00:29:09.794
- Rose!

00:29:09.836 --> 00:29:11.296
- Dang it, Rose!

00:29:11.337 --> 00:29:13.423
- You could stop this.

00:29:13.465 --> 00:29:15.133
You could stop this
right now, Lissa.

00:29:15.175 --> 00:29:16.217
- Fine, fine.

00:29:16.259 --> 00:29:17.761
You want my power?

00:29:17.802 --> 00:29:18.970
Take it!

00:29:19.012 --> 00:29:21.139
Take it all!

00:29:21.181 --> 00:29:22.724
- No, Lissa!

00:29:44.329 --> 00:29:47.123
- Wait, Dimitri.
I heard about the verdict.

00:29:47.165 --> 00:29:49.375
Give me five minutes with him,
and I'll wipe out your debt.

00:29:54.923 --> 00:29:57.675
I didn't think it was true,
and I'm sorry.

00:29:57.717 --> 00:29:59.677
- Don't be.

00:29:59.719 --> 00:30:01.971
You didn't need to be alone
to say that.

00:30:03.431 --> 00:30:05.058
- I wanted to tell you...

00:30:07.769 --> 00:30:09.813
Rose and I are leaving.

00:30:13.733 --> 00:30:15.235
- That explains it.

00:30:15.276 --> 00:30:17.278
- Look, where you're going,
it's not gonna be easy.

00:30:17.320 --> 00:30:19.572
I know that.

00:30:19.614 --> 00:30:23.952
But I thought maybe it'd help
to know that she'll be okay.

00:30:25.411 --> 00:30:26.830
- It does.

00:30:28.414 --> 00:30:30.708
And I wish you the best.

00:30:30.750 --> 00:30:32.669
Rose is meant
for greater things,

00:30:32.710 --> 00:30:35.505
and she deserves to be safe.

00:30:35.547 --> 00:30:38.174
And happy.

00:30:38.216 --> 00:30:39.425
- She does.

00:30:42.846 --> 00:30:46.182
- Never tell her
what's about to happen to me.

00:30:46.224 --> 00:30:49.435
If she knows,
she won't leave.

00:30:52.355 --> 00:30:53.815
Let's go.

00:30:59.529 --> 00:31:02.657
- * you, Dimitri.

00:31:02.699 --> 00:31:04.492
* you.

00:31:22.385 --> 00:31:23.761
There she is.

00:31:31.686 --> 00:31:33.146
You look pretty *y

00:31:33.187 --> 00:31:36.357
for someone who just gave him
exactly what he wanted.

00:31:36.399 --> 00:31:38.484
- No.

00:31:38.526 --> 00:31:41.321
All I gave him was time.

00:31:41.362 --> 00:31:45.450
Once his guilt kicks in--
and it will eventually--

00:31:45.491 --> 00:31:47.160
that's no favor.

00:31:48.620 --> 00:31:50.538
- But are you gonna be--

00:31:50.580 --> 00:31:52.957
- Wait, Rose.

00:31:59.464 --> 00:32:02.425
The Darkness,

00:32:02.467 --> 00:32:04.010
I can see it.

00:32:12.310 --> 00:32:15.521
All this time,

00:32:15.563 --> 00:32:17.357
I wasn't passing it to you.

00:32:17.398 --> 00:32:21.402
I was taking your light
through our bond.

00:32:21.444 --> 00:32:23.780
- I don't know
which version sounds worse,

00:32:23.821 --> 00:32:26.449
but how?

00:32:28.117 --> 00:32:31.120
- Magic doesn't fill me
with Darkness.

00:32:31.162 --> 00:32:32.747
It depletes my light.

00:32:32.789 --> 00:32:35.208
Spirit needs light.

00:32:38.586 --> 00:32:40.338
Hey, Rose,
maybe if I

00:32:40.380 --> 00:32:43.925
could give myself some time
to fully recover,

00:32:43.967 --> 00:32:46.427
you know,
to build back my own light,

00:32:46.469 --> 00:32:50.264
because
I won't take yours anymore.

00:32:50.306 --> 00:32:53.726
- Well, actually,

00:32:53.768 --> 00:32:56.145
you won't have
to worry about that now.

00:32:57.939 --> 00:33:00.525
I'm leaving.

00:33:00.566 --> 00:33:02.902
- Leaving? Where?

00:33:02.944 --> 00:33:04.654
- Out into the world.

00:33:04.696 --> 00:33:06.322
Like you and I always planned.

00:33:06.364 --> 00:33:08.157
- But if I can learn
to control this,

00:33:08.199 --> 00:33:09.492
then you don't have to go.

00:33:09.534 --> 00:33:11.077
- That's not why I'm going.

00:33:12.662 --> 00:33:17.792
For so long, all I thought of
was being your Guardian,

00:33:17.834 --> 00:33:19.293
and that was enough.

00:33:19.335 --> 00:33:20.670
But now,

00:33:20.712 --> 00:33:23.589
after everything,

00:33:23.631 --> 00:33:28.344
I need to figure out who I am
outside of all of that...

00:33:30.805 --> 00:33:32.890
And outside of you.

00:33:36.561 --> 00:33:41.065
And given you just came riding
to my rescue,

00:33:41.107 --> 00:33:45.153
it looks like you can
take care of yourself now.

00:33:45.194 --> 00:33:47.405
- We can't have you corner
the whole hero market.

00:33:54.787 --> 00:33:56.039
Rose.

00:33:58.541 --> 00:34:00.084
- I know.

00:34:06.507 --> 00:34:10.136
- So, um, just you?

00:34:10.178 --> 00:34:12.847
Or...

00:34:12.889 --> 00:34:15.391
I'm going with Mason.

00:34:18.311 --> 00:34:20.730
Stop it.

00:34:20.772 --> 00:34:22.023
He's a good guy.

00:34:23.900 --> 00:34:26.652
- He is.

00:34:26.694 --> 00:34:29.614
And it's your life, Rose.

00:34:29.655 --> 00:34:32.075
Whatever makes you happy.

00:34:32.116 --> 00:34:34.035
But don't get too comfortable,
okay?

00:34:34.077 --> 00:34:36.704
I have big plans
for this Dominion.

00:34:36.746 --> 00:34:39.707
When I'm done with this place,
you're gonna wanna come back.

00:34:39.749 --> 00:34:41.793
Just wait.

00:34:50.635 --> 00:34:53.221
This isn't goodbye.

00:34:55.473 --> 00:34:57.683
- No.

00:34:57.725 --> 00:34:59.602
It's just see you later.

00:35:20.790 --> 00:35:23.668
- Woodland secure.
They won't get through.

00:35:23.709 --> 00:35:26.003
- No one's been able
to reach either of her fathers?

00:35:26.045 --> 00:35:27.547
- Nothing.

00:35:40.351 --> 00:35:42.353
Weapons up.

00:35:55.283 --> 00:35:56.909
Where is Mia Karp?

00:36:02.415 --> 00:36:04.542
- Mia.

00:36:04.584 --> 00:36:06.502
What did you do?

00:36:06.544 --> 00:36:09.422
- She's fine.
For now.

00:36:14.594 --> 00:36:16.512
You look so shocked.

00:36:19.432 --> 00:36:21.726
- We have what you asked for.

00:36:21.767 --> 00:36:23.519
Let Mia go,
and we'll give you Sonya.

00:36:23.561 --> 00:36:25.938
- Sonya first.

00:36:25.980 --> 00:36:28.733
Or she dies.
- Absolutely not.

00:36:28.774 --> 00:36:31.736
We have you outnumbered
and outgunned.

00:36:31.777 --> 00:36:34.572
Mia first,
then Sonya.

00:36:34.614 --> 00:36:36.407
Or we walk.

00:36:55.343 --> 00:36:57.470
She's next.

00:36:57.511 --> 00:37:00.389
- All right.
Everybody, stand down!

00:37:00.431 --> 00:37:02.642
Down!

00:37:11.317 --> 00:37:13.194
If you kill Mia,

00:37:13.236 --> 00:37:15.571
there is nothing stopping us
from torching you all.

00:37:17.907 --> 00:37:20.451
We exchange simultaneously.

00:37:20.493 --> 00:37:24.413
When we drop the wards.

00:37:24.455 --> 00:37:27.792
- After Andre
and my parents died,

00:37:27.833 --> 00:37:30.962
you believed in me,
before even I did.

00:37:31.003 --> 00:37:32.380
Since then,

00:37:32.421 --> 00:37:37.593
this Dominion has been
on a wild ride, Your Majesty,

00:37:37.635 --> 00:37:39.637
leaving no candidate
untarnished

00:37:39.679 --> 00:37:42.974
and our people
as divided as ever.

00:37:43.015 --> 00:37:44.934
I know I need
to get my quorum back,

00:37:44.976 --> 00:37:46.978
to marry,
and to learn,

00:37:47.019 --> 00:37:49.730
and all of that will take time.

00:37:49.772 --> 00:37:53.651
But I have a proposal for you

00:37:53.693 --> 00:37:56.237
if you're willing to hear it.

00:38:17.758 --> 00:38:19.176
- Once again,

00:38:19.218 --> 00:38:23.264
I hereby declare
Princess Vasilissa Dragomir

00:38:23.306 --> 00:38:25.683
heir to the throne.

00:38:25.725 --> 00:38:27.518
But not for today.

00:38:27.560 --> 00:38:30.813
For today,
I'm not going anywhere.

00:38:30.855 --> 00:38:34.025
I declare the Trials moot.

00:38:34.066 --> 00:38:37.695
It is time we put
this whole ugly business,

00:38:37.737 --> 00:38:41.866
this whole ugly era,
behind us.

00:38:41.907 --> 00:38:44.744
As such,
I shall be keeping the crown

00:38:44.785 --> 00:38:47.872
until Vasilissa is ready
to rule.

00:38:47.913 --> 00:38:51.417
Such is my decree.

00:39:02.678 --> 00:39:04.388
- You're late.

00:39:04.430 --> 00:39:06.098
Where have you been?

00:39:06.140 --> 00:39:09.685
- Sorry, I just had
some last-minute stuff.

00:39:09.727 --> 00:39:13.272
- For a second, I thought you
might have changed your mind.

00:39:15.691 --> 00:39:17.735
- Never.

00:39:19.403 --> 00:39:21.447
- What?

00:39:21.489 --> 00:39:24.408
You're being weird.

00:39:24.450 --> 00:39:26.243
- I'm just excited.

00:39:27.745 --> 00:39:30.373
You ready for the adventure?

00:39:30.414 --> 00:39:33.042
- I was born ready.

00:39:34.627 --> 00:39:35.878
- Lower the wards.

00:40:05.282 --> 00:40:07.284
- Sonya, I'm sorry
I wasn't there for you.

00:40:07.326 --> 00:40:08.869
I won't forget you, Sonya!
I promise.

00:40:08.911 --> 00:40:10.913
I love you, Sonya.

00:40:20.673 --> 00:40:22.425
- Wards, back up!

00:40:26.345 --> 00:40:28.264
- I'm taking this back
to the vault.

00:40:28.305 --> 00:40:30.641
One wrong move,
and you kill them.

00:40:44.155 --> 00:40:47.658
- After all that,
you're just gonna leave?

00:40:53.080 --> 00:40:55.374
- We've done
what we came to do.

00:40:57.168 --> 00:40:59.545
- Everyone told me
you guys were monsters.

00:40:59.587 --> 00:41:02.089
There wasn't a day that went by
that I didn't defend you.

00:41:02.131 --> 00:41:04.341
I even wanted to join you
because I thought...

00:41:07.178 --> 00:41:10.806
I thought somewhere inside,
you--

00:41:10.848 --> 00:41:12.850
you must still love me.

00:41:12.892 --> 00:41:15.603
- You always were a good boy.

00:41:15.644 --> 00:41:18.814
- So if you don't care
about me,

00:41:18.856 --> 00:41:22.151
why do you care about Sonya?

00:41:22.193 --> 00:41:25.905
Is it 'cause she's like you?

00:41:25.946 --> 00:41:28.199
Is she your family now?

00:41:28.240 --> 00:41:31.368
- We didn't come here
for Sonya.

00:41:32.953 --> 00:41:34.705
We came here to feed.

00:42:28.551 --> 00:42:31.053
- Breach the far wards!
- What?

00:42:31.095 --> 00:42:33.931
- You were the perfect decoy.

00:42:33.973 --> 00:42:36.559
It's sad how stupid Moroi are.

00:42:36.600 --> 00:42:38.727
Though it makes them easy prey.

00:42:51.907 --> 00:42:56.620
- I'm never gonna let you
hurt anybody ever again!

00:43:01.166 --> 00:43:03.085
- No!

00:43:04.795 --> 00:43:09.091
You haven't begun
to know the meaning of hurt!

00:43:09.133 --> 00:43:10.843
Lissa is mine!

00:43:23.439 --> 00:43:25.482
- Come on, Marie.
This way.

00:43:25.524 --> 00:43:27.735
How could they possibly
breach the wards?

00:43:27.776 --> 00:43:30.112
- It's St. Jude's
all over again!

00:44:40.891 --> 00:44:42.476
- I tried diplomacy.

00:44:42.518 --> 00:44:45.062
I tried preaching
your ridiculous Saints.

00:44:45.104 --> 00:44:46.689
I'm done playing nice.

00:44:46.730 --> 00:44:49.316
So * the Queen
and * your sister.

00:44:49.358 --> 00:44:50.859
* it all.

00:44:52.486 --> 00:44:55.823
Now we're doing things my way,
Andre.
