The Sisters Grimm (2025) s01e05 Episode Script

1
He lied to us.
Jack lied to us.
We snuck him out of jail,
brought him here, and then he did this?
[howls]
What happened, sweet boy?
What did Jack do?
Did Puck come back?
Puck's not coming back.
I told you we couldn't count on him.
You're probably not wrong.
Fairies are the worst.
So, now what? Where is Jack?
What is he planning? How do we stop him?
We're not going to find out
anything by standing around.
Mirror will have the answers. Let's go.
- [Elvis whimpers]
- Wait!
We can't just leave Elvis.
- He needs a vet, like, now.
- [Elvis whimpers]
[sighs] We may not
have time for this, but
- Mr. Seven, I need to-- What?
- [indistinct chattering]
Yes, of course,
put the uneaten desserts in the freezer.
No, canapés stay in the refrigerator.
[clears throat]
Seven, listen.
Send the Three Witches
to Relda's posthaste.
There's an injured mongrel-- Uh, I mean,
dog that needs tending
while we attend to other matters.
Don't worry,
the Three will rectify this in no time.
[chiming]
- [gasps]
- He'll be all right, little one.
Thank you, Mayor Charming.
It's Prince, actually, but right,
well, enough dallying.
We need to get to the Mirror.
Did Ms. Snow break up with you
'cause you were bad at hugs?
What? No, it was mutual.
We just grew apa-- [groans]
I'm not discussing romance with you.
Let's carry on.
Oh, no!
Looks like he put up a fight.
- Hmm.
- Here you go, Prince Charming.
Thank you.
[chuckling] Uh, yes.
Let's go.
Mirror? Are you in here?
[groans, winces]
Mirror. What's Jack done to you, old boy?
He took the beans.
I tried to stop him,
but he was very underhanded.
Is Jack the Scarlet Hand?
I don't know.
He didn't share his life story,
but I'm fine.
Thank you for your concern, Sabrina.
Are you really okay, Mr. Mirror?
Thank you for your actual concern, Daphne.
I think I'll be fine.
This is all connected
to my mom and dad somehow.
It has to be.
We'll worry about them later.
If he has the beans,
we need to find Jack--
Daphne and I need to hear
about the Scarlet Hand now.
[sighs] Hmm.
[sighs] Relda should be
the one to tell you,
but my best guess is that
the Hand is a shadow group
connected to many
unsolved crimes over the years.
They traffic in misinformation using
whisper campaigns and untraceable threats.
I'm afraid more people than just
your parents have gone missing.
Their power is invasive,
and no one knows their leader.
That's it? That's all you know?
That's, like, nothing.
A "thank you" would do.
But I'm not thankful.
My parents are missing,
and I don't know why I shouldn't just use
these slippers right now to find them.
But what about Granny Relda and Mr. Canis?
And the Giant!
Or giants.
There's only one giant.
I told you Jack took the magic beans.
The lad seems intent on sprouting them.
Can't imagine why.
He's such an outstanding tailor.
- [chef's kiss]
- I know, right? [chuckles]
Those stitchless seams.
And that hem work.
Ooh! Don't get me started.
Wait, wait, wait. Focus!
We've got to recover those beans.
Magic beans sprout magic beanstalks,
which means a portal to giants.
Yes, that's what we're saying.
The town would be flooded
with giants in no time.
Everything we've built, trampled to dust.
We won't let that happen.
The slippers can bring us right to him.
Right, Sabrina?
Daphne, you heard him.
There's more than one giant.
I don't know if I can protect you.
If we don't go with Charming right now,
and the whole town gets destroyed
with Granny and Canis,
I don't know how I'd feel about myself.
I want to go stop Jack.
And I think Mom and Dad would be
okay with me making that choice.
[Charming] Girls, we need to go.
[groans] I need a second.
[sighs] Mom, Dad, I know I promised
I would take care of Daphne,
but you should see how strong she is now.
I trust her.
You know that I'm coming to get you.
So please, hang on a little longer.
[sniffles, sighs]
Okay, Daphne. Let's go stop Jack.
Thank you.
Okay. How do we stop Jack?
- Mirror, where's the armory?
- [neck cracks]
Whoa.
There it is.
Excalibur.
Ah, a blade as magnificent as I.
Ah. Back in the day,
I chopped King Arthur's round table
into semicircles.
[chuckles] The sword responds
to the wielder's intent, you see.
At its full potential,
you can slice through solid rock.
Careful, child.
Even at its lowest strength,
one nick from the blade will end you.
Wait. Are we trying to end Jack?
We're trying to negotiate.
One look at this,
and Jack will know we're serious.
Well, I don't want to be ended,
so let's suit up.
- Hmm. This could work. [shrieks]
- [screams, laughs]
[indistinct whispering]
- [whispering stops]
- Absolutely not.
[groans]
[groans]
[strains, grunts]
[groans]
He's all better now,
and I took care of the fleas too.
Be sure to give him a big lunch.
He's earned it.
Goodbye, house.
[lock clinks]
[grunts]
You know, we're breaking Relda's rules
by bringing you along, Charming.
Should I trust you?
Probably not,
but questioning people's motives
seems to be a favorite hobby of yours.
It's a hobby of necessity.
We all have things to protect.
I want my town back
to the safe refuge for Everafters,
where we are free to be ourselves.
I want a replacement for my tailor
and a Himalayan cashmere robe.
I have no plan to double-cross you,
but make no mistake.
As soon as we handle this menace,
my disdain for your family will persist,
and we will be enemies once again.
[chuckles] I wouldn't
have it any other way.
Puck! Puck? Puckers!
Puck, Puck, Puck. Puck!
Save your breath, Daph. He's not coming.
I don't believe that. Puck!
[Sabrina] Okay, if we're going, let's go.
[sighs]
- Ready?
- Ready.
Ready.
There's no place like where Jack is.
There's no place like where Jack is.
- Whoa! [grunting] Whoa!
- Daphne!
[sighs]
[sighs] Okay. Uh, you have her.
Good.
Oh! Look at that, my hem is ripped.
I made a snow angel.
Wow, Daphne.
Yes, yes. Lovely.
[growls]
Right. I'll find Jack,
you two find a place to hide.
Hide? No way. That's not part of the plan.
What plan? Did we make a plan?
Yes. I use Excalibur to capture Jack,
you tie him up and get him out of here
with the slippers.
Then I negotiate peace with the giant.
Did I not say that out loud before?
- No.
- Do we even have rope?
You didn't bring rope?
[groans] Right.
I forgot you're new to this.
In that case,
we'll just have to-- Look out!
Whoa.
We didn't get smooshed!
Exactly. Not sm-smooshed.
[rumbling]
[roars]
[laughs] That's it, giant.
Get a nice, frothy rage going
before we hit the town.
[groans, roars]
Remind them why they need a hero.
I don't think that guy
knows what a hero is.
Oh, no. Maybe he doesn't.
We need to tell him.
Enough chatting, ladies.
We have business.
Jack, you know this sword, so stop, fiend!
Ah! Prince Charming.
Have you bean looking for these? [laughs]
Maybe don't call him names and just try
to figure out why he's doing this.
Also, don't hurt him.
I give the best advice.
You really do.
[panting]
[laughs]
[both panting, grunting]
[panting]
Wow, Charming's
actually really impressive.
He's so fast.
[grunting]
[groans, pants, grunts]
[groans]
Man, why didn't Dorothy
have silver sneakers instead?
[sighs, winces] Ooh!
Cold, cold, cold, cold, cold, cold, cold.
[growls]
[Charming] Jack!
Welcome to the party, Charming.
That hem is ripped, by the way,
but I'm afraid you'll have to find
someone else to sew it up.
I don't need a tailor or a giant slayer.
I need Jack to listen to reason.
Nah, I'm all set, mate.
[sighs]
- [grunting, groaning]
- [groans, grunts] Huh?
Didn't even dent it.
Oh, Charming,
you're not even trying. [shouts]
[grunts] I'm not here to hurt you.
It's easy for you to judge
when you're still a prince,
and I'm just mending inseams.
What's wrong with mending inseams?
You're the best at it.
I dare say you're an artist.
I am. But the sword, the fight.
I've realized how much I miss it.
It feels good, doesn't it?
[chuckles] I can see in your eyes
that you miss it too.
Maybe. There are many things I miss.
Ah. Like Snow White.
You'd probably still be with her [grunts]
if things were the way
they're supposed to be.
Instead, she's with the entitled Omelette.
[growls] Don't talk about her.
You wouldn't know love
if it marched across your estate
like the Napoleonic army. [grunts]
All you love is yourself.
It's healthy to love yourself,
but I love our people too.
That's why I called the giant
to give us our lives back.
We're built for excitement and adventure,
not markdown sales and local politics.
We're not mortals.
We're Everafters.
Wait a second.
I've heard this pitch before.
- [rumbling]
- [shrieks]
[growls]
[Jack grunts]
- Ha!
- [growls]
It wasn't me, you big oaf. Oh, drat.
This way, handsome.
[grunts, growls]
[pants] We made it.
We're here to help.
This isn't fair.
Our legs are shorter than yours.
You're supposed to stay hidden.
[sighs] Did you think
there would be this much running?
[sighs] No, actually.
I really didn't.
Everyone be quiet.
[sniffs, groans]
[roaring]
Where'd Jack go?
Do you think if I knew where he was,
I'd be crouching here like a buffoon?
Well, I don't know.
I've never crept around
a creepy forest before.
- We did that two days ago.
- Oh. Right.
- [crossbow clicks]
- Look out!
- [grunts]
- [gasps]
[groans] Now my whole tuxedo is ruined.
[shrieks]
There he is.
[grunts] Oi, big boy. This way.
[Charming] We need
to talk about this, Jack.
Communication is always
the right way forward.
Now, I mean it.
You two hide this time.
But we came to help.
[groans] It would be very helpful
if you take some cover.
Be careful!
Jack, stop this.
Why would I?
[yelps]
The giant and I will have so much fun
stirring up a frenzy in the town.
[grunting] Not my town.
[grunts]
[sniffing]
[groans] Well, you got me, mate.
That's what you were
expecting me to say, right?
[groans, roars]
[yelps, laughs]
[groans] Jack!
Over here. Let's go home already.
[groans, roars]
[pants] I thought we were away from him.
He's, like, everywhere.
[shrieks, groans]
[gasps] Sabrina!
[shrieking]
Daphne, no!
[panting]
I've got you, little one!
[grunting]
[sighs] Daphne, are you okay?
Yeah, but is he?
[groaning]
He's still breathing.
[Jack] All right, you big lummox.
The town is this way.
[roaring]
He's almost at the town!
I'll take care of Charming.
And I'll get Jack.
[grunts]
Whoa.
I think I've got a grip on-- Whoa!
[grunts] Geez.
Charming made this look so easy.
I'm coming for you, Jack.
Wake up.
Are you Prince Charming
or Sleeping Beauty?
[groans, exclaims, grunts]
- [grunts]
- You used us.
[grunting, shouting]
I know, I know.
But I didn't lie
when I promised to slay the giant.
You used us, and you lied.
We thought you were our friend,
and now you're putting
a whole town in danger
because you don't feel special?
[grunting]
But it's not about me.
I'll make this whole town
feel important again.
- Whoa!
- Don't you see?
We've become normal.
I'd give anything to be normal.
To be a regular kid with my mom and dad.
There are no heroes in normal
because there is no danger.
Heroes don't risk other people's lives
for their own good.
- [grunts]
- Please.
Don't tell me you're taking me on
out of the goodness of your heart.
You just want someone
to help you find your mum and dad.
[grunts]
[groans]
You and I are alike.
Always fighting for what we want,
willing to do anything to get it.
You're right.
My family is all I care about.
[grunts] But, Jack,
a lot of people are going to get hurt.
There are other ways to be a hero.
You can change.
You're the author of your own life.
Sabrina, m-my story has been written.
I can't change it.
[exclaims]
Of course, you can.
You can choose another way.
I used to think I was happy as a tailor,
but then they reminded me
of what I'd lost in that life.
It's embarrassing.
Says who?
Being good at your job
is not embarrassing.
Well, they needed my help.
It's for all the Everafters, really.
Plus, I-I agreed to their deal,
and I can't back out now.
They?
- You mean the Scarlet Hand, don't you?
- [gasps]
Jack, these people,
I don't know that much about them,
but I know you aren't like them.
You are not a villain.
Well, I did steal that money
from the tailor shop.
And now I've summoned the giant.
But that's not all you are.
You can make this right.
They're too powerful, Sabrina.
You don't understand.
I didn't have a choice.
The Scarlet Hand
upended both of our lives,
but we can fight them together.
With the slippers, we-- What?
No! Where's the other one?
[gasps]
[roars]
[exclaims, grunts]
Sabrina!
[grunts, pants, gasps]
[roars]
[shrieks]
[gasps]
[gasps]
- [groans]
- Sabrina!
Wha-- W-What did I do?
[groaning]
No, no, no.
[groaning]
He's coming down.
We've got to get out of here.
- [gasps] Wait.
- What is it?
Prince Charming's still unconscious.
I'll handle it, but you are leaving now.
No, I can help.
You go now!
[panting] Where's that slipper?
- [pants]
- [grunts, groans]
[panting]
There it is.
[groans]
[groans]
[panting]
[grunting]
[grunts, panting]
[sighing]
[gasps]
[breathing shakily]
[whimpering]
[coughing]
Sabrina. [gasps] Where's Daphne?
[gasps] You're alive.
[sighs] Good.
[groans]
[sobs] Daphne, I lost the slipper.
It's gone.
[sobs] We can't get to Mom and Dad.
[whimpers]
We'll find another way.
I had everything, and now it's gone.
No!
I had everything, and now it's gone.
You ruined everything, Sabrina.
Why did you do that?
I-- I didn't-- I don't know.
[laughs]
Well, no matter because now
I've got nothing to lose.
