Heaven. A year in hell (2025) s01e04 Episode Script

1
Hey.
How many bodies are buried there?
Around 30.
Our old fears are buried there.
The same fear I see in your eyes.
We found bones alright.
Of adults. And children.
Stop being a smartass.
[contemplative music playing]
This is a skull of a five-year-old,
possibly a six-year-old child.
Why did you kill these people?
Why would you dissolve
their bodies into nothing.
Hold on. Before, you said
that we ate them right?
We don't murder. We follow His word.
I see.
Can you do me a favor
and speak in your own words?
I don't know, can you do me a favor
and speak in your own words?
Did someone tell you
not to be frank with me?
And did someone tell you not
to be frank with me?
[sighs]
Did someone tell you
how much time you'll do for this?
[music fades]
Maybe if you talked to him,
we'd get somewhere.
Where are you hoping to go?
If your son were to start cooperating
he might get less time in prison.
But I
But I don't want him
to spend less time in prison.
[Dabrowski] Do you realize
what prison is like?
Sebastian doesn't have to go there.
Yes, he does.
Let the boy go,
if that is the will of God.
Let him fall and find out
there's no one to come to his rescue.
No one but me, then he'll see.
Sinners return to the path
only by repenting for their sins.
He must learn someday
how much I've done
for him.

ILLUSTRATIVE MATERIAL
Why did you kill those children?
You don't know? Fine.
Did you kill Mirończuk for his land?
[laughing]
Krzysiek!
Uh, Monkey Wrench.
The name is Monkey Wrench.
Mirończuk's neighbor
reported seeing your car
outside his house.
I'm sorry, can you say that again?
[scoffs] You think it was a coincidence?
There aren't any coincidences.
And I think God wanted our paths to cross.
And I think you're attempting
to commandeer God's authority
by throwing around his name,
and I don't believe he'd like that at all.
Tell me then, why at this moment,
is He looking down with such joy?
Enlighten me.
Because he planned our encounter
from the beginning.
And here we are right now, so I can remind
you about something really important.
Yeah? Like what?
What happened?
You used to be a good man.
But what happened?
You're completely alone now.
- No one can stand you.
- [quiet dramatic music playing]
And why are you stuck here?
Why have you let this happen?
Now you're in deep and you need help
getting yourself out of it.
You've done wrong.
And you might die here.
No man can keep his secrets
from me. No one.
They seek the cure from me.
I see you.
[chuckles]
I see you.
You think that toothache is random?
Stop lying and it'll stop.
Keep lying, and you'll lose that tooth.
Followed by another one.
And when you spit out your third tooth,
then you'll understand.
- What?
- That it was a sign.
Then you'll come to us.
And you will ask
if you can live with us in Heaven.
And then I'll fucking help you
with everything I've got.
[music fades]
- All the bones are from the 1940s.
- [groaning]
They say the Germans
held executions there, so it makes sense.
Those have
to be Mirończuk's bones, got it?
[sighs] They fucking have to be.
- Are you fucking crazy?
- [gulps]
Have you got the electronics they stole?
Go fuck yourself, huh, Kiwior.
Just lock them up
for a few months, alright?
[panting]
[dramatic music playing]
[agonized groaning]
[moaning]
[gasping]
Zośka make a hat,
don't just knit for no reason.
I'm making a sixth scarf.
- [Zuza gasps]
- Czarek needs a hat.
Well then?
They're all getting six months.
[woman] My god. [sighs]
I'll check the fuse box.
So I'll give birth without Sebastian.
I'll take care of everything.
I bought you vitamins.
I should have that ultrasound.
Will you take me tomorrow?
Oww!
Don't ever hit her.
Zuza!
[Dorota] I bought these oranges for you.
You need to eat well now. For the child.
It's my child.
I can take care of it.
[woman] Oh, goddamn it.
[sighs] Everything's down.
They shut off our power.
- We've got a stove, we don't need power.
- Ahh.
Beautiful.
Yeah.
What's so beautiful about this?
No power.
- No money.
- [distant dog barking]
Nothing to eat, we're down
to our last chicken for broth now.
Those are temporary issues. How does it
My love
My love
Come on.
Let's just pack up, get in the car,
and go far away from here.
[barking continues]
We gave them our apartment.
- Forget about the apartment--
- No.
I'm not leaving here without it.
Then we'll get it back.
Go to Dorota.
Say we're going back to the notary,
and she will have to sign the deed
over to us again,
because this wasn't the deal we made.
You really think she'll just sign it over.
Maybe she will
if we give her the car in return.
- Mirek
- [gasps]
My name isn't Mirek.
It's Cock-a-doodle-doo.
[tense music playing]
[humming]
You're awake.
Loud Night will be staying with you now.
What do you mean, staying?
You need a guardian.
He'll be your Master now.
[tense dramatic music playing]
- [glass shatter]
- [grunts]
You want a corpse in Heaven?
You want to live on your own,
then so be it.
- [glass clatters]
- [shuddering]
[sobs quietly]
[music stops]
[guard] Stop, turn left.
Go in.
[dramatic music playing]
Mrs. Teresa Keller?
Yes?
You requested a mass intention
for the release of your son?
The parish priest told me about him.
[sighs]
[music fades]
[breathes deeply]
[liquid dripping]
[shudders]
Bring us towels.
Everything's going to be fine.
[ethereal music playing]
Uh, I'm having it here?
[priest] Sancte Michael Archangele
defende nos in praelio.
Contra nequitiam et insidias
diaboli esto praesidium.
[moody dramatic music playing]
In the name of the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
- The Lord be with you.
- And also with you.
Let us both confess our sins
and prepare ourselves
to worship the sacred
mysteries of our Lord God.
I hereby confess to the Almighty
[both] and to you, my brothers
and sisters, that I have greatly sinned,
in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done and failed to do.
Through my fault. Through my fault.
Through my most grievous fault.
[man] Did he answer you?
Who?
God.
Yeah.
Well, fuck. He stopped answering me.
There's meaning in everything.
There are no coincidences.
- [grunting]
- [man] Beat his ass! Get him! Come on!
- Push!
- [screaming]
[spirited dramatic music playing]
Oh, Almighty God,
we have been redeemed through you
and through your sacrifice on the cross,
and overpowered Satan.
- [grunting]
- [man] Get him! [chuckling]
[screaming]
We ask you to free Sebastian now
from the grasp of Satan's followers.
- [man] Keep going, man.
- [priest] We ask for this in your name.
- Yes!
- [screaming]
We ask for this through your wounds.
We ask for this through your cross.
- [grunting]
- [man] Yeah!
[sobbing]
[priest] We ask for this through
the intercession of Mary.
[both] Immaculate and sorrowful.
- [grunting]
- What the fuck is going on?
- Hey! Hey!
- Get down!
[screaming]
The blood and water
flowing from your wounds
shall flow onto Sebastian
liberating his soul,
washing away sin and healing his heart.
[screaming]
- [baby crying]
- [panting]
Amen.
[music continues quietly]
[baby cooing]
Mmm.
[gasps faintly] Give him to me.
It's okay. Shh shh.
He's mine.
- [music stops]
- Shh
Mm.
Sticking you in a cell
with Maradona was a dick move.
They transferred you now
so you'll be fine.
Is anyone else bothering you?
Maybe you were the one
who put that guy up to it.
Listen, kid.
- This Piotr of yours--
- King.
King.
King.
He prophesied something
and then it came true.
He prophesied a train crash once.
That happened too.
[chuckles] He also foretold that
a mountain would fall in South America.
Thousands of people died.
How does he do that?
[chuckles]
Did you
did you witness any of his
Miracles?
Yeah.
You happen to be looking at one.
I went from doctor to doctor,
from hospital to hospital.
I thought I'd die from the pain.
And then Piotr
[snaps fingers]
How?
[mysterious music playing]
He truly saw me.
[breathing deeply]
You're in pain, right?
I once went to this priest.
And he put his hands on my head.
And then?
Just pain.
"Watch out for those would-be scribes,
those who prefer their fine robes
and decorations and love seats of
[both] of honor at banquets."
Luke, 20:46.
I know it.
Very good.
[knocking]
Go to King.
He'll help you.
I'll come back next week.
I'll bring the cigarettes.
[mysterious music stops]
A son.
[Piotr] A son.
[laughing]
[men chattering]
What will his name be?
I named him Pesjach.
- Pesjach?
- Pesjach.
[Sebastian] Pesjach
[Piotr chuckles]
You need to bring us 40 eggs tonight.
How?
You can barter for them
or you can steal them
And should you manage that,
we can talk about a new wife for you.
- So what are they saying?
- I don't know.
If they're talking
then it's behind closed doors.
We'll get rid of all the doors.
[Mirek chuckles]
[Pesjach cooing]
[door opens and closes]
[cooing]
Shh. Sh sh
I'm sure it's tough for you,
all on your own.
[Pesjach fussing]
It is.
But the main thing
is that Pesjach is okay.
- [gasps]
- [Pesjach crying]
Kingdom says
there shall be no more doors in Heaven.
Why though?
Because the Holy Spirit
doesn't like doors.
- [Pesjach continues crying]
- [moody dramatic music playing]
Do you always have to do
what she tells you to?
I do what's necessary. If you don't
like it why are you still here?
Because someone has to be here
defending Aneta and Pesjach.
You really are a pathetic,
envious, barren bitch.
[shudders]
You've never talked to me
like that before.
But one day
I hope you'll remember that I love you.
- That's it, I've had it with you.
- Someday you'll realize Dorota is evil.
- [hard slap]
- [grunting]
[shuddering]
Mm.
gasping]
- [giggling]
- [music fades]
I felt such relief.
And peace.
That's how I know it really worked.
I haven't slept in six months.
Her damn son did this to me, Father.
He kidnapped Aneta,
he got her pregnant, he
Excuse me?
We're both, well
grandmothers.
Offering a mass for the liberation
of your daughter's soul
may help this household
and your baby grandson.
What about an exorcism?
Have you all gone insane over here?
Exorcisms are done when the devil
has taken possession of someone,
isn't that right?
[priest] That's right.
[man] Our daughter left our house
to live with junkies
because she's a complete imbecile.
Wouldn't you like to try to--
A complete imbecile. So please,
tell me why would the devil want her?
Maybe you'd like to try
an exorcism on yourself?
[scoffs] Why?
You'd like to
to tie me down, cop a feel?
No.
But I can see that an evil spirit
has entered your body and soul.
- Hm, how about we talk about God?
- Let's do that.
So, why does he let little kids die?
Why is there cancer in the world?
And why don't you get the fuck out, hm?
Don't you want to try, Joanna?
Shh shh Shh Shh shh.
[quiet dramatic music playing]
Shh shh.
- [whimpering]
- [latch clicking]
[shuddering]
I'm begging you.
Mirek, please, you have to let us out.
Please please.
Shh.
- Love, I told you I told you
- [door opens and closes]
everything is to stay
as it is until King returns.
- I beg you.
- Hey.
- Here.
- Go away.
Ohhh.
He's our first child born in Heaven.
I'll give him the best possible care.
Ohh shh shh shh shhhh.
Hush.
Shh Shhhhhh
Shhh.
Shh shh shh shh shh.
Yes, yes, yes, shh. Shhhhhh.
Shhh. Don't worry.
Don't worry, my darling.
- I'm here. I'm here.
- [Pesjach crying]
[whimpering]
[quiet dramatic music continues]
Shhh shh shh shh shh shh.
[Sebastian] And only in Heaven
did I finally find peace.
I could breathe.
And I felt better than I ever did.
For the first time in my life I wasn't
pretending to be someone else.
[breathing deeply]
It's living in honesty,
but on another level.
Sounds pretty good.
Our doors are always open.
No.
King doesn't want to talk to me.
Why would he?
All those charges
the skeletons and Mirończuk
It's nothing but lies and you know it.
Karolina couldn't have known anything.
And why is that?
A month ago I saw her
burning in the flames of hell.
I talked to her myself.
She sat across the table--
You couldn't have because one month ago
I saw that she burned
in the flames of hell.
What the fuck does that mean, kid? What
the fuck are you saying? Get a grip--
You didn't talk to her
because I saw her burning in hell!
All of her meat was charred into ash.
For fuck's sake.
[grunts]
Wake the fuck up! Wake up!
[groans faintly]
[groans]
[groans]
[panting]
[chuckles]
[jingling]
[guard] Alright, come on.
Let's go.
- [Sebastian sighs]
- [guard] Sign here.
Your friends are right behind you.
You're not gonna wait for 'em?
[mysterious music playing]
Do you have a phone book here?
- [birds chirping]
- [contemplative music playing]
[screaming and laughing]
- [woman] You're back!
- [woman and man chuckles]
Hey.
[woman chuckling]
[Piotr chuckling] Run to your wife.
[Czarek] Oh my sweetheart.
It's okay. We're back. Everything's fine.
[man chuckles]
He's so small.
Mm.
- Where's Seba?
- He's not here?
[Piotr] My kingdom.
[man] Ahh. Mmm.
Good to see you.
Oh, Jack.
Why didn't you go back with them?
Were you having doubts?
I needed to check.
Check?
If Dabrowski was right.
So
You really believe
that Karolina was burning in hell?
Sebastian.
My son, look at me.
I didn't know what to believe.
[mysterious music playing]
My Karolina, did you know her?
Were you a friend of hers?
Maybe then you know why she, um
Because my daughter,
she wouldn't talk to me.
What did she do?
She jumped. You know.
When?
- She hadn't talked to me in two years.
- When did she do it?
Uhhh.
When all that news
about the cult started coming out.
She spoke to the police
and then she jumped.
Impossible.
Don't go back there!
[heartfelt ethereal music playing]
No, they never had anything on us.
[Pesjach fussing]
[music continues]
Let's get the fuck out of here.
[both breathing deeply]
And go where?
The outside world is hell.
- [panting]
- [quiet dramatic music playing]
It's worse in here.
They wanted to give me
to Robert while you were gone.
I will take care of you.
You will take care of us.
Let's get Zośka and run away.
Where are you going?
You want to leave here?
Look me in the eyes!
You call yourself a man!
[scoffs] For fuck's sake!
Look at you now. "Always"?
You think you can leave with these two?
You're in a hurry to go to hell?
Fucking get outta here then!
Get the fuck out of here now!
- Go! Get off.
- Zośka. Zośka.
- Let them go.
- [Dorota] Piotr!
Zośka
- [Dorota] What are you doing?
- Uh-huh.
They've got our Pesjach! [gasps]
They'll return with their tails
between their legs, with Pesjach.
They'll be back, you hear me?
Do you hear what I say?
Trust in me.
[Aneta] Zośka it's just a line. Drive!
[Zośka shuddering]
I can't believe it.
We made it. Now we're free.
You guys, we made it, we got away.
- Now we're free. We'll be free.
- Yes, we're free.
[both chuckling]
[exhales deeply]
[footsteps]
[dramatic music fades]
Thought you could use a generator.
It's a gift for you all.
I I I
- I I
- I I
I
I There's no "I" here.
It's only "we."
[spitting and groans]
[groans]
You okay? Better?
[Aneta gasps faintly]
I'm better.
Good, I'll go get you something
from the car to wipe your face.
You're better?
[Aneta] Hm.
Ohhh.
[Piotr in voiceover] My son
[Aneta] Hmm.
[quiet dramatic music playing]
[Piotr] Son
Why have you forsaken me?
[panting]
Why have you forsaken me?
[tires screeching]
- [loud crash]
- [music stops]
[screaming]
[gasping]
[car hissing]
[moody music playing]
[panting]
- [gasping]
- [Aneta sobbing]
[man 1] Hey! Are you okay?
Lady! can you hear me? Hey!
Hey, man, help the driver!
- [man 2] Get him out.
- [man 1] I got him.
- [man 2] He hit his head, not answering.
- [man 1] What the hell happened?
- [man 2] Can you hear me?
- We're going back.
We're going back.
[man 1] Someone needs
to call an ambulance.
He'll forgive us. You hear me?
He'll forgive us. You hear me? Look at me!
The Lord will forgive us.
He forgives even
the very worst sinners. Let's go home.
- We're not going back.
- Go home.
[moody melodic music playing]
[whimpering]
- No.
- Wait.
Please.
I love you, please, Aneta.
This is your home. I am your home.
He is your home now.
We're not going back.
Yes. Oh, you
Shhh.
[shuddering breaths]
Do you want to die like Zośka?
Like Karolina?
And Maciek?
Give him to me.
Give him back!
[grunts]
Please, give him back!
No, you can't!
[grunts]
[sobbing] No! Please!
Give him back!
Please, Lord, have mercy on her.
- Please, Lord, have mercy on her.
- Help me!
- Please, Lord, have mercy on her.
- Somebody!
[sobbing]
Please!
