Blood Ties (2006) s02e10 Episode Script

That's a pretty safe bet.
We do have a weekly appointment.
Yes, but my feeling was that you'd return with a problem.
A very specific problem.
That is so true.
Only it's not my problem.
It's a friend of mine's.
She's got one too many men to chose from and some serious commitment issues.
Well, my spirit guides are always willing to help.
But asking questions for someone else is complicated.
Can we try? Of course.
Yeah, mom, I know.
I know I haven't called you in ages.
It's just I've been really busy at work.
Oh, yeah, I'm trying to run my own business, for one.
Well, that would be if my assistant would show up and typed this reports that I asked her to.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know, mom.
Men like women with skills.
I've never seen you do that before.
Things have changed.
Coreen I understand why you've come.
You do? You want to know how to help your friend.
That's right.
That's what I want too, but she's a hard woman to help.
She keeps her protection too strong.
Tell me about it.
Sometimes, to help someone, you have to sneak in the back door.
Give me your hands.
Will that help? Just what the doctor ordered.
Yeah, Coreen, it's me again.
Look, I'm getting really worried.
I've been trying to get hold of you for hours and you're not calling back.
Something's happened, and I need you to give me a call back as soon as you can.
Thanks.
Bye.
Madame Andrea? Madame Andrea? Hi, I'm Vicky Nelson.
A spirit told me you were coming.
Yeah, of course it did.
I'm not here for a reading.
Listen, a friend of mine was in here earlier for an appointment.
Coreen Fennel.
Yes, she was here.
He told me she would come, too.
Listen, she should have been back at the office about five hours ago, and it's not like her to not check in with me.
Did she say anything about where she was heading? She said people would be hearing about it soon enough.
Why is it that I get the feeling there's a joke I'm not in on? You should've been smarter.
You should've come to him on your own.
Come to who? - You felt when he came through.
- Where did he take her? They got in a cab - and they were gone.
- Where? You think he tells me? I've done my part and now I'm awaiting my reward.
Consider that your first installment.
Hey.
We don't usually see many pretty girls in here unescorted.
What makes you think I'm alone in here? Don't go away, big boy.
I'll be back.
We both know it's Astaroth, Henry.
- Are you saying Coreen's possessed? - I don't know what I'm saying.
All I know is he's been in her body running around the city for the last four hours! This is a big city.
How do you propose we find her? The psychic said that people would be hearing about it soon.
Best people to hear it from are the ones who get the calls.
And you think detective Celluci is going to willingly put the all emergency task force on this? Yes, dispatch.
This is detective Kate Lam, badge number 3425.
Calling to see if there've been any disturbances reporting a young Goth female, involved in any kind of altercation, anything violent, strange Sure, I'll hold.
Does detective Lam know you're using her badge number? Please, she's too busy parading and primping herself around for Mike.
What goes through your head? Says the man who got his blood like diet cola! Yes! Where? How long ago? Thank you.
Club Veniel.
- Gentleman's club.
- Healer bar! Someone matching Coreen description is a the center of a disturbance that was just called in.
He's here for four hours and the first thing he does is go and look at naked women.
If you'd been in hell for the last two thousand years, what would you do? Good point.
Okay, people.
Here's what we know.
Her name is Hannah Tang.
Her father, Oliver Tang is CEO of Jay Telecom out of Hong Kong.
She was abducted yesterday morning, from her home, around 9:30.
Her driver was shot at the scene.
We have any communications from the kidnappers? One call to let her father know she is still alive and to stay by the phone.
They will deliver their demands and the method of payment.
Are we assuming it's Asian gang related? Few people outside of the community would have had any idea of the extent of the Tang's family's wealth.
Now, we have set up a manned listening station at the house.
Do we have any potential suspects? The Asian crime squad has provided a list.
The problem is we can't be seen running it too aggressively.
If they feel we're getting too close, the child would be killed.
I don't care how wide a net we have to cast, nobody clocks out until we found her.
Celluci, are we keeping you from something? Why don't you answer that? No! You haven't even heard what I was going to say yet.
- I don't have to.
- Mike, I need your help.
Coreen's in trouble.
Okay, I'll buy it.
What is it? Hair style malfunction, eye liner trouble? What? No.
She's possessed.
With Coreen, how can you tell? Listen to me.
Astaroth is in her body, okay? She's said she's at Club Veniel.
It's a strip joint downtown.
Yeah, I know what it is.
How do you know it's her? The dispatcher said there was a tiny Goth girl in the center of a free-for-all.
Wait a second.
Since when does the dispatcher call you to report in? I He might have mistakenly thought I was Kate.
Listen.
The cops are already on their way.
I need you to help me keep her out of jail.
Okay? Can you meet me? No.
I can't Vick.
Okay, I'm in the middle of a task force meeting.
We got a homicide and a high profile kidnapping on our hands here.
Mike, if the police get there before we do, someone is going to die.
All right.
I'll meet you there in five minutes.
Miss Miss Step down from the stage.
Please, I won't ask you again.
I'd appreciate that.
My friends are here.
- What took you so long? - Get our of her! No, I just got here.
Vicky, don't! Come on, it's me you want! Come on! Come on! hey! Playing by his terms - Right.
Then what do we do, Henry? I mean, there's going to be some way we can get this thing out of her.
Excuse me! I'm still in the room.
What the hell do you want? There you people go again making rush assumptions.
It's not about what I want, it's about what Vicky wants what she needs There's nothing to gain from this.
I'll just wait here then, shall I? Hey, hold it.
Where do you think you're going? Find some help.
A priest who's had experience with demonic interventions.
Oh, and he's just going to, what, hocus pocus this thing our of Coreen? It's a little more complicated than hocus pocus, but essentially that's the plan.
Mike, we will be back in a few minutes, okay? No! Wait! Wait! Vicky! I'm in the middle of an investigation back at the station, okay? I probably have already been fired for coming here! Please.
It's for Coreen, okay? We'll be back in a few minutes, I promise.
Vicky! Oh, sure, just let me babysit the demon, that's a great idea! Thank you again for helping me with this.
Hopefully, once Astaroth is back in hell we can both put this behind us.
Are you still thinking about moving? I've had some interesting offers.
The city is quite hot right now.
Well, you know what they say about real state.
Location, location, location.
Well, is more about culture and night life.
The ability to feed your mind and your body.
Will you miss it? Sometimes.
No matter how much you want something when you realize is not good for you.
There will be other cities.
Henry.
Father.
- It's been a long time.
- Since last Christmas.
Initiate more midnight messes and you'll see more of me.
Raymond, this is Vicky Nelson.
Vicky Nelson, father Cascioli.
Hi.
I always assumed the Henry had a beautiful lady friend.
Raymond we came in need of your help.
A friend of ours has been possessed by a demon.
You shouldn't have come.
I'm afraid you're wasting your time.
We has nobody else to turn to.
Neither do they.
They need me.
I'm sorry.
Please, one second.
Henry I've to finish with dinner.
I have to hear confession.
I have to coach the boys basketball team.
And I'd hate to diminish a good game of hopes but a demon is trying to enter this realm and it's trying to do it through a good friend of mine.
The last time I performed an exorcism something happened.
No offense, father, but whatever happened you're here and the demon's not.
We've been trying to fight this thing for the last year.
But it's not enough.
We need to banish it forever.
You never struck me as someone who'd run away from a fight.
I'm being held against my will, officer.
You're choking me up.
You can't keep me locked up for ever.
We won't have to.
Oh, the vampire is gone for the cavalry, has he? Or he and Vicky just offered a romantic interlude while you babysit.
Hurt, eh? imagine, sitting around for a year waiting for her.
Having to watch her get freaky with the bloodsucker.
I'm not going to play heart to heart with you.
Yes.
I mean, it's no surprise.
Fitzroy is rich he looks younger he's stronger.
You really don't have much to compete with, do you? I take a better sun tan.
All the women want Henry.
Specially Coreen.
The things that girl would like to do with him in the middle of the night.
It almost makes me blush! Get used to it.
Vicky's getting rid of you.
Mike don't listen to him.
She cares about you.
Vicky wants you, not Henry.
Shut up! I guess it is hard to tell where Coreen stops and I start these days, uh? Come on, Mike! I'm not such a bad guy.
Back home I hang up with all sort of people, you know.
You want a message from your old man? He said enough when he was alive.
Hell of a right hook, uh? Still, we could be friends.
I could help you, you know? Show you crimes being committed.
Where and when.
Let you stop murders before they happen.
But right now I can see a purse being snatched, a drug deal going bad, an old woman signing over her deeds to a scam artist.
I can even see your kidnapped victim.
You would love to know where she is, wouldn't you? What do you know about that? See for yourself.
- Where was that? - Oh, fine.
Now you want to be friends.
Tell me where she is! You have to do something for me first.
One small favor.
Prop my head up on these pillows so I'd be more comfortable.
Come on, sailor.
One small favor.
Don't! Give the demon no comfort.
Well, there you have it.
The gang's all here! In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
Do they know they got the wrong man for the job, Ray? In the name of Our Lord, we consciously undertake to repulse the attacks and the seeds of this devil.
Do they know what you did to that poor woman, Raymond? The demon tries to distract us.
We drive you from us.
All satanic power, all infernal invaders You've got a surprise coming.
- Vicky! - Wait! Coreen, you're okay? No.
He does something to me.
- What is it, father.
What did he do? - Don't listen.
It's just a trick.
Use your ears, vampire.
Tell them! What? Her heart.
It's not beating.
It's because is gone! using your hope.
Vicky, wait, you can't just take off No, I'm going to find Coreen's heart.
Vicky, he's not to be trusted.
Listen, no one is dying on my watch! Okay, if there's a chance I can save her, I'm going to take it.
Look, the psychic said she got picked up in a cab.
I called a couple of cab companies I mean if the same guy pick her up and drove her of That's a five hour affair! Someone had to have noticed something.
And what if we can't find the driver? No, no, no.
There's no can't right now.
What do you think, Ray? Feeling pretty good? Better than last time? In the end the result will be the same for you.
I hope not.
Neither of us wants that, now, do we? What is it? When? If you would just helped me that night a hundred years ago, we could have saved everyone so much trouble.
And what would the world look like now? They don't need me to bring hell to Earth.
Look up out there! I'll not listen.
What about you, Henry? What would you do to fulfill the secret desire you would never tell anyone? - I have all I need.
- Really? How would you like all of that and to be able to walk in the day? Feel the heat on your skin, to really live.
How would you like to be able to father children? If she had to choose between the two of you, she's choose you if only you were human.
Would you make a deal to leave her alone? You're a good dealer, vampire.
But you just picked the one bargain I can't agree to.
Where the hell you have been? We got a call from the kidnappers.
- I've been following a lead.
- With her? Yeah.
What the kidnappers say? Three million in buried bills or they start sending the kid back in bite side pieces.
Their description, not mine.
They're going to run the father around town to make sure he's not followed when he does the drop.
Are we on it? Helicopters, unmarked tag team follow cars and GPS in the bag.
Father is putting the money together now.
Crowley's already noticed you were gone.
Bringing Vicky back here is not a good idea.
Kate, I think I found something out about the kidnapping.
They're keeping her in a cell.
Okay? It could be some kind of old psychiatric institution, maybe, maybe a rundown jail Could you track it down for me? Why me? What would you be doing? I've got to go, okay? Maybe you could tell me what's going on, and that isn't an idle request.
A lot is running on your answer.
Trust me on that.
We're following a lead on Tang case, okay? Where? Who gave it to you? He gave me a potential location to run down.
You have a whole team of women fighting your battles for you, don't you Celluci? I'm a popular guy.
What can I say? What do you want from me? Right now? Your badge and your gun.
You walked out on an ongoing investigation, with no excuse and no permission, you refuse to disclose the nature of your activities while you're gone.
You can consider yourself on suspension pending formal dismissal.
You're through, Celluci.
I'm sorry, Mike.
Yeah Thanks.
Mike, I'm so sorry I thought it could be like it used to.
I wanted it to be.
Mike, then this happened.
And now I never know if this thing or something connected to it is going to kill me or kill someone close to me.
You can't use this as an excuse for ever.
How do you make plans with something like this hanging over your head? People do, Vick.
They fall in love during floods, during air raids They don't make plans, they just they connect.
They love each other.
The first person you have to be honest with, though, is yourself.
You have to decide what it is what you want.
And just know he won't wait for you forever.
Well? We found the cabby that took Coreen to the strip joint.
So maybe you could use your powers of persuasion on him? See if he knows anything else? Yeah.
How is she? Even the demon's powers can't keep her alive for ever.
We have to find the heart.
Vicky! I'm scared.
I'm going to be right back, okay? Don't leave me.
You stay with her, I'll go with Henry.
Let's go.
Be careful.
Coreen, I'm so sorry.
I should never have let you get involved with all of this.
It's not your fault.
I was the one who came into your office in the first place, who got you involved.
It's going to be okay.
We're going to make this right.
You know, I know I never told you if it weren't for you in the last few months I mean, you have stuck by me through everything.
And I I'm not going to let this pig take you! She's an infuriating woman.
Definitely not relationship material.
Not at all.
But try to imaging no wanting her, uh? Impossible.
Bingo.
You're Ali Acab? Might be.
Get sure.
Come on, dog, it's been a long night! I'm off the clock! Yeah, you're still in my clock.
I want to know about a young woman that was in your cab earlier today.
Lots of fairs man, they all fade together.
You remember her! Goth pretty, a little twisted red eyes.
And why didn't you say so? Now, that girl know how to freak flight fly.
Talking crap about vampires, heaven and hell, Tandoori chicken - What? - She wanted to stop at an Indian.
Where else did you stop? Ten minutes at the Bombay Garden then once more at the bus station.
What did she do there? I don't know.
She was in there for a while.
What's a while? An hour or so I was going to take off but she told me that if I left, that she would eat my soul.
Now, I don't know if she would do that, but I kind of didn't want to take that chance.
When she came out she was looking kind of strange.
So I asked her, what's wrong? She said something about men troubles.
Men troubles? Yes! And she lost her heart! What do you want? Why am I son important to you? At first you were just a sacrifice in a ritual.
And when that was frustrated, you were still the doorway.
And then Then I came to understand your strength.
I understood that I wanted you with me.
I bet you say that to all the girls.
I was only able to bring part of myself through into this girl.
I need to fully be here.
I need to bring my others.
Great! So, how many people would I be responsible for killing? It's not about killing not just I started off as an angel.
We all did.
It wasn't us who cursed the entire human race for eating an apple.
When me and mine arrive, he'll see how quickly all he created could be turned against him.
You know what? You really should save this for someone who would buy it.
You haven't even heard my offer.
Feed the hungry, cure the sick, free world of peace whatever.
And all for the low low price of my soul! Help me and I would let you transform the world.
Here's a free taste of the power I offer you.
Use your blood and your will to bring me through.
You'll have everything you desire.
- You know that I'm telling you - Enough! You have nothing to offer but damnation.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
You think he told us everything? I can be fairly certain.
My suggestions are hard to resist.
Yeah, so I noticed, first hand.
We're not going to get into that again, are we? I vamped you for a reason.
No, it's okay.
It was life or death.
No, it's okay, Henry.
In fact, I want you to do it again.
What is this, backward stare, or am I missing something? No, no, the The demon, he let me see something.
Only I don't know what it was that I saw.
I need you to pull that vision out of me again.
Anything the demon showed you was a lie.
He's not to be trusted.
Henry, look, I've got I've got a feeling about this, okay? A kidnapped victim's life is at stake.
I've got to follow up any lead that I can, no matter how twisted it is.
Please, Henry, just do it! Remember.
It's not a cell it's a crypt! They're keeping it in a crypt! - Kate Lam.
- Kate, it's me.
Don't hang up.
Mike I'm busy.
What do you want? I have more information on the lead that I gave you earlier.
I've been through every institution and closed prison in the province.
There's nothing.
No, Kate, it's not a cell, it's a crypt! All right, I need you to look up a name.
Garth Malagrine.
It's I.
N.
E.
Born 1890, died 1965.
Find out where he was buried, that's where they're keeping her.
We already have leads.
I can't just drop what I'm doing.
Kate, if you have ever believed anything I ever told you, please, just believe me on this.
- Just do it! - I got to go.
Well I did what I could.
Good.
Let's find ourselves a heart, then, shall we? You're sure you're doing the right thing here, Ray? Doubts, score.
Let's work with that.
Paola Silvano invited a presence into her life.
You know that, don't you? It was an invader.
And it was killing her.
Her husband was killing her.
Poor Paola inviting something in to keep her company, to protect her! What good is it to stay alive if you lose your soul? We both know it's not that easy.
We both know what her husband did to her after your exorcism! I did what I had to do.
That's not my fault! Come on, Ray.
You know the first step is confession.
Even you might score some redemption later on.
There's going to be no later, because you're going to hell! We'll see about that, Ray! You're going to be all right to finish this, father? Don't doubt my resolve, Miss Nelson.
Not even for an instant.
I've been through the bathrooms, the baggage check Maybe he sent it somewhere.
No.
Astaroth would want to keep it close by.
All right, would you tell me then.
- A little obvious, don't you think? - The devil's in the detail, detective.
So what, that's it? That's it.
But Vicky and I still have some issues to settle.
I made you an offer.
One way or another we'll be together, Vicky.
Let's do this, father.
What's wrong with her, Henry? Her heart's not beating.
He lied to us! Surprise, surprise.
I said I'd let you put the heart back in the girl's chest.
I didn't say I'd make it work.
No! Mike! Okay you wanted me alone.
Let's do it! Not all I said was a lie, Vicky.
You do what I say.
You know I'm right.
Never! Yes, you will.
One touch you can use it to send me back to hell or you can use it to save the girl.
Vicky no! What are you going to do, Vicky? Follow what the world tells you or save your friend? Come on! Come on, Coreen! You made a good choice, Vicky.
I see you're starting to understand.
See you soon, Vicky.
You're going to be okay.
I guess both of us have scars, now, uh? I guess so.
Cool.
She's back.
I've got it.
You're okay? I'll survive.
I always survive.
You made a big mistake tonight, Vicky.
I told you before, Henry, I'm not going to the dark side.
He let you taste the power of life and death.
That's not something one forgets.
I can't live in this place.
It's too dangerous for me and no less for you.
Come with me.
- I can't.
- You can.
You just have to say yes.
I have the money and the resources to keep us far out of the reach of the demon.
God, you make it hard, don't you? Don't you understand that since I met you, all I wanted to do was say yes? But I can't run away.
It's not that easy.
I, uh I just spoke with Kate.
They found the hostage right where the demon showed me.
Don't be too quick to throw praise.
How about you hold off on your sage advice? Mike.
Look, I don't know where this guy is going or what he's going to do, but it's your problem, now.
Oh, the hell with it! Good bye.
Mike! Vicky, let him go.
You have forty lifetimes ahead of you.
He's got one.
And I have screw it all up.
I have to try and make it right.
So, be it.
