Grimm s03e16 Episode Script

Previously on Grimm - Have I done something wrong? - Actually, yes, but it's not too late to make it right.
Have you heard from Sebastian? I've been trying to contact him for two days.
- No! - Does he know where you are? Not exactly, but he can point them in the right direction.
I suggest you move, and the sooner, the better.
Well, that's not gonna be easy.
There's three of us now.
The only thing you have to worry about now is that we find them.
Still warm.
They can't have got far.
Will you marry me? Will you marry me? Yes.
__ Now, every so often, something appears that is so horrible, so vicious, it cannot be tamed, for this beast is the demented turmoil of man himself Hidden from view until it is too late.
Do not be fooled by the way he looks now.
Show us, beast.
Show us who you really are.
Show us! Stay back.
Stay back! He's dead.
Ladies and gentlemen, let this be a warning to you all.
There are monsters living amongst us.
Beware.
Beware.
- That was so amazing! - How do they do it? Max? You okay? Yeah, yeah, soon enough.
We promised each other we'd know when it was time to walk away.
- We need the money, don't we? - Not if it means this.
Max.
Leave me alone.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! That's him.
That's the guy.
- Should we? - Yes! You're that guy we saw! You were awesome! - I gotta go.
- No.
Please let us buy you a drink.
I don't think so.
Oh, come on! One drink.
I'm Dolores, this is Monica.
We don't bite.
Unless, of course, you want us to.
Come on.
Ooh, tripped.
We want to find someplace quiet and secluded.
Where, in the woods? It's sort of a tradition.
On both sides.
My parents were married in the cascades.
In the mountains? Yeah, from what I hear, it wasn't too bad of a hike.
My parents got married next to a waterfall.
My dad likes to joke he couldn't hear the vows.
Anyway, we're thinking somewhere up on mount hood.
Don't worry, somewhere we can drive.
That sounds better and so romantic.
And by the way, if you need any help at all, please don't hesitate to ask us.
Well, that actually kind of brings us to the ulterior motive for tonight.
I want to thank you for changing my life, because if it hadn't been for you, I never would have met Rosalee, and for that, I am truly grateful.
Me too.
So Will you pay for the wedding? Monroe.
Monroe.
Sorry, just I was kidding.
Um, but seriously, I want you to be my best man.
No pressure, you don't have to answer right away.
Really, for sure? Well, dude, you brought us together.
I mean, you are kind of the responsible party here.
Then I'd be honored.
Hold on, we're not done.
I have to have my sister as the matron of honor, but you can be the maid of honor since you've never been married.
Of course.
That means so much to me.
That's so special, thank you.
I love a good wedding.
To the bride and groom.
Ooh, werewolves of London - Come on, you guys.
- You'll get your turn.
I want him to show us how he does it.
Just wait till the song's over.
Ah, ooh It's over.
Come on, Max, show us how you do it.
You don't want to know.
Yeah, we do.
It's all just fake.
He can't do it.
He doesn't have his mask.
He doesn't use a mask.
He somehow does it with his face.
Don't you, Max? Come on, baby, show us your magic.
No, I'm Is it a mask? Where do you hide it? Oh, maybe down here.
Stop.
Come on, scare us.
Come on, make us scream.
He's doing it.
He's doing it! Wake up.
Nick, wake up.
You're having a nightmare.
Yeah, no kidding.
You want to tell me about it? Oh! It was Monroe and Rosalee's wedding.
It was that bad? Well, no, not at first.
It was a beautiful ceremony, until one of the little kids woged and saw me and started screaming, and then the parents woged, and they saw me and attacked, and I had to kill them.
Yeah, and it was pretty much downhill from there.
Last thing I remember, I beheaded Monroe's grandma - Oh.
- Before you woke me up.
Well, thank God it was just a dream.
But what if it's not? What if this is a premonition? I mean, all of this could really happen.
If I'm Monroe's best man, I'm gonna be standing right up there.
People are gonna be looking right at me.
I don't think I can do it.
Somebody could die.
Well, that would definitely put a damper on the wedding.
What should I do? I think you just have to be honest with him and tell him that you would love to be his best man, but it's obviously just not worth the risk.
- The man in back is Viktor.
- The prince? He wants in on the kill.
Didn't expect him to get his hands dirty.
Oh, she's hungry.
You can feed her later.
Let's get moving.
Ha ha! Good to have you back, Wu.
Good to be back.
I think.
We missed you.
Homicide just ain't the same without you.
Then I guess I'm in the right place.
We got two to start your day.
Their neighbor Bob Gumer found them about an hour ago as he walked past with his dog.
Noticed their door was wide open, didn't really pay attention until his dog ran in.
Upon seeing the victims, Mr.
Gumer lost his lunch over in that corner, then called 911.
Any forced entry? Not that we could find.
Rest of the house is intact.
That's Dolores Kulikowsky.
That's Monica Duncan.
Roommates for about two years, according to Mr.
Gumer.
What about the car in the driveway? Registered owner is Dolores.
It's locked, so we haven't opened it up yet.
- Open it up.
- Yeah.
I got some photos.
Pretty brutal.
I got a ticket stub here, dated yesterday.
From where? Carnival Metamorphosia.
Never heard of it.
Says it's in Sellwood river park.
- Just one ticket? - I'm checking the other jacket.
Nick.
At least we know where they were yesterday.
Tickets, tickets, let me see those tickets.
No tickets, no fun.
Tickets, tickets, let me see those tickets.
No tickets, no fun.
No show like it, it's the only one.
Tickets, tickets, let me see your tickets.
No tickets, no fun.
Let me see your tickets.
No tickets hey, let me see those tickets, boys.
That'll work.
Go right on in.
Do you remember seeing them yesterday? Got any idea how many people come through here every day? - Who's in charge here? - That'd be Mr.
Hedig.
He's in the last tent at the end of the midway.
Can't miss him the guy with the whip and the gun.
But the show's about to start.
He won't be able to talk.
A warning, my friends.
What you're about to see will live in your fear for years, for this is no nightmare, and truth truly is stranger than fiction.
Behold Damien, the last of the dragons on God's green earth.
His ferocious nature proves that we are lucky that they did not devour us all.
Witness Ivan, vile Ivan, who crushes skulls and breaks bones with his bare hands.
- Are you seeing this? - Oh, yeah.
The beautiful Genvieve, who proves that beauty is but skin deep and that a beast resides within us all.
Is this some kind of wesen carnival? Looks like.
Oh! Can they do this? Like, in front of people? I don't think they're supposed to.
No one's taking this as real.
They all think it's a trick.
Now, every so often, something appears that is so horrible, so vicious, it cannot be tamed.
For this beast is the demented turmoil of man himself, hidden from view until it is too late.
Do not be fooled by the way he looks now.
Show us.
Show us what you are.
Show us.
I command you to show us! Back.
Stay back.
Back.
- He's dead.
- Oh! Let this be a warning to you, ladies and gentlemen, that there are monsters amongst us in the world.
Beware.
Beware.
Isn't this where Sebastian left us? Yes.
I was hoping it's the last place they look.
Wait, what are you gonna do? We need a car.
Stay here.
I will get you to a doctor.
No, no, you must go.
Nein.
Nein.
Nein! Viktor did this to you? Yes.
For helping me? - What are you doing? - Making up for what I've done.
Stay in the car.
We're leaving.
I'm not.
They will have heard the shots.
Give me his gun.
Go.
We're just gonna leave him? He's doing what he has to do.
Listen.
Hey, this is a great idea.
You just should have let me go with it, you should have let me go into the crowd.
- I could've just - Max, please.
- Get right in their face - Enough! This is my show.
No one tells me what to do.
Does anyone have a problem with that? You? You? We have company.
I'm sorry, no one's allowed back here.
I'm Detective Griffin.
This is Detective Burkhardt.
You Hedig? The one and only.
Is there a problem? We're investigating the death of two women who were here last night.
You recognize 'em? Mm, don't remember them, no.
Sorry.
Look, we'd love to help, but we perform in front of a lot of people every evening.
You can't expect us to remember two faces out of a crowd.
That's a nice trick you guys do onstage.
Want to tell me how you do it? Magic.
- Really? - Gentlemen, it's how we earn a living.
Illusion's important.
Without it, we'd be left with what? Reality.
And as you know, reality can often be not very pretty.
And I assure you, whatever magic we do in the show did not kill those women.
We're gonna need a list of all your employees.
Of course, yes, yes.
My records are in my trailer.
Would you like to follow me? Max, did - How long you been doing this? - Ever since I was a kid.
I ran away from home when I was 13, even though it wasn't much of a home to run away from.
I worked for the man who started this, Major William John Beeman.
He was a real performer.
I bought it from him ten years ago.
Ever have problems with your employees? Of course, it's the nature of our business.
Here's the list of all the people that work here.
Now, just because some of my people have been in trouble in the past, it doesn't mean to say they're in trouble now.
You know, those masks you use, they seem so real.
Mm.
It's all part of the illusion.
- You make them? - No, they're made in China.
It's a tradition that goes back These people are real craftsmen.
Uh, thank you for your time.
If we need anything else? Please.
We are here through Sunday.
Please tell me you don't know what happened to those girls.
I don't remember.
- It's just - Answer me.
All I remember is drinking with them, that's all.
That's not all.
They're dead.
I don't remember.
I don't remember.
Hedig is working you too hard.
He does not care about any of us.
Oh, Genny.
What did I do? I'm so sorry.
Max, I love you.
We can't do this anymore.
- You are already - Already what? What am I, Genny? What? Let me help you.
You're not going on that stage again.
We're leaving.
Where would we go? I'm I'm not going anywhere.
No! No more! Max.
No, it's me.
It's me! Max! Oh, God.
Max.
What the hell is going on in here? No, no! Max, you will control yourself! Don't hurt him! Oh, God.
- Hedig, she's hurt.
- Easy.
He didn't mean it! He didn't know what he was doing.
You idiot, you'll be the ruin of us all.
Well, what do we do now? She can't go onstage like this.
Then get me someone who can! They took the other car.
They've got Sebastian.
- No, sir, he's here.
- Here? Where did they go? I don't know.
This time, I believe you.
A wesen carnival? Wow.
In Sellwood park.
- Ever been to one? - No.
It's not something the community is particularly proud of, but they still exist.
They aren't as common as they used to be, but it goes all the way back to Rome, from Circus Maximus to P.
T.
Barnum.
Long history of wesen exploitation.
Forcing wesen from all over the world to woge for the cheap thrill of a paying audience.
Which is offensive on so many levels.
Well, the council doesn't have a problem with that? The performers present it as one big magic trick, so it technically doesn't go against the code of Swabia, but in situations like this, it's recommended that local wesen perform a sort of intervention.
Why? The real danger isn't the exploitation of wesen.
It's the Umkippen.
- Oom-what? - Umkippen.
Essentially If we force ourselves to woge over and over again, the wesen side can, like, take over.
Leaving us at the mercy of our primal urges, which is a little problematic for civilized society.
If someone in this show is suffering from the Umkippen, they are a ticking time bomb.
And they could've killed the two victims.
Absolutely.
Why do you think it was one of these performers? They got pretty tight-lipped when we started asking.
The Blutbad seemed a little more worked up than the others.
Now, if someone did have this Umkippen, would you be able tell? Eventually, yeah.
Look, when there's not a shred of humanity left, it's pretty obvious.
And in the meantime, it's a pretty intense struggle.
Could there be a pattern of violent behavior? Yes.
We gotta get to the precinct and do some background checks.
Thank you.
You got it.
We should check that place out.
What? No, I why? I hate carnivals, they give me the creeps.
But we would be able to tell if someone is suffering from the Umkippen.
If they are, they need our help.
Even if they've killed somebody? - Then we tell Nick.
- Well, okay, why don't we just bring Nick with us, at least? Uh, because he's a Grimm.
It would only make things worse.
Fine.
- How many? - Four murders, three years, all small towns, all unsolved.
Checked the carnival's show dates.
Each murder took place when the carnival was in the area.
Hmm.
How far back did you track it? We're working on it.
We're gonna get a subpoena to get the earlier records.
- If they even keep them.
- The problem is, the employees don't last very long.
Some of them, couple years, others, a few weeks.
And they've all been arrested, everything from disorderly conduct to assault.
Except this guy, he's been there for all four murders, and he's Blutbaden.
Max Robbins.
A couple of DUIs doesn't make him a murderer.
Where was he before he joined the carnival? Don't know yet, still waiting for the irs to give up his tax returns.
The carnival packs it up in two days.
If we don't charge somebody, they're gone.
If we charge someone without sufficient evidence to hold them, they may disappear for good, so you've got two days to make sure you find something solid.
Where do you want to start? We need to talk with one of the performers.
If one of them has a problem, the others will know.
Assuming they'll talk to us.
We just need to show them that we're on their side.
Okay.
Excuse me.
I hope I'm not disturbing you.
You are not supposed to be back here.
We're here to help.
Why? Because we're simpatico.
Are they treating you okay? Do you feel, you know, exploited or hey! No simpatico.
What do you think you're doing back here? - Uh - Auditions are in the tent.
Hurry up, let's go.
We don't have a lot of time.
- Whoa, wait a minute.
- Look, I don't have a minute, okay? You wait out front.
She gets the part, you get a free pass.
Turn around.
Let's go, come on.
Let's go.
Hello? Show us what you got, bright eyes.
I'm sorry, I I don't know what you want.
Woge for me, or get out.
Do we have all day? No, we don't.
There's a show to do, so let's see it.
Great.
Turn around.
Go ahead.
Keep going.
Keep going.
Keep going.
Keep going.
Brilliant.
You are hired, and you're working tonight.
- What am I supposed to do? - What you just did.
Don't sweat it, Genvieve will fill you in on the rest.
Sid, take her to the tent.
Welcome to show business.
I'm gonna make you a star.
Come on, sweetheart.
Come on.
You made the Verrat turn the gun on himself.
I was trying to make him drop it.
I'm still a little rusty.
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
- Yes? - How close are you to Zurich? About half an hour.
Tavitian found someone to transport Adalind and the baby.
- Do we know who? - No.
But if Tavitian set it up, they can handle it.
- Where are they taking them? - I don't know.
I'm gonna send you coordinates to an airstrip north of Zurich.
Get there as soon as you can.
The plane won't wait.
And Tell her to be careful.
Sean found somebody to take you and the baby out.
You aren't coming with us? No.
My fight is here.
- Here's your new bunkmate.
- What? Hedig wants you to get her ready for the show.
Make it quick.
Hi.
I'm Rosalee.
Good for you.
Costume's hanging right there.
Get ready.
What am I supposed to do? You're a Fuchsbau, right? - Yeah.
- Ever been onstage? Not since I was eight.
What were you doing? - Sound of music.
- Huh.
That'll help.
What happened to your leg? Um, I fell on some broken glass, which is why you're here.
Get ready.
This is it? Look, you seem like a nice girl, and I'm sure joining a carnival looks like a lot of fun, but let me just tell you right now, you do not want to be here.
Is that because of the Umkippen? What do you know about that? I know that it can be dangerous.
Then walk away while you still can.
This is no life for a wesen.
- Has it affected you? - You ask a lot of questions.
I don't mean to pry, it's just that if we don't look out for each other, then it's affected all of us.
- Why don't you quit? - I can't.
- Maybe I can help you.
- It's not me.
Then who? - My boyfriend, Max.
- He's in the show? He's the star of the show, Hedig's biggest attraction.
You must love him a lot.
Hedig pushes him too hard.
I'm scared for him.
I'm scared for me.
Okay, where's Max now? Quit asking questions.
Get dressed.
If sid comes back here and you're not ready, he's going to tear into me.
Go.
What the hell are you doing? Get outta here! No, I can't leave, Monroe, it is so much worse than we thought.
- What? - It's Max.
- Who's Max? - From the show.
He's the one suffering from the Umkippen.
Oh, my God, why is it always the Blutbad? That is not cool.
That is even more reason to get out of here.
You are not safe.
Where is she? Is she dressed? It's showtime.
Go, go, go, go.
No time to be shy, honey.
Get in that costume.
You're on in ten.
- Something doesn't make sense.
- What do you got? Three more unsolved homicides, going back ten years, all towns the carnival has gone through, only Max hasn't been with the carnival for ten years.
- Well, none of them have.
- Except Hedig.
Where is Genvieve? Because I'm not gonna do this.
I'm not going on without where's where's Genvieve? She's hurt, remember? So you think that you can take her Don't push me! You don't go anywhere near the new girl.
You hear me? Get in the cage.
Get in the cage! And take a good look at these bars, 'cause that's where you'd be if it wasn't for me cleaning up your messes.
You can't treat me this way.
I own you.
I can treat you any way I want.
If I hadn't stopped those girls or any of the others from calling the cops, what do you think would've happened? You killed those girls.
Well, that doesn't matter.
What matters is who the cops think killed them, and right now, all fingers point at you.
It's all a show, and it's been going on a lot longer than you, so shut up and do your job! Places, everyone.
He can't go on.
He's sick.
We all are, sweetie.
Come on.
Everyone, have a great show.
Come on, pick up.
- Monroe.
- Hey, Nick.
Remember that carnival we talked about? Yeah, well, Rosalee and I thought we'd, you know, check it out for ourselves, and I think we might have gotten in a little over our heads here.
- You're at the carnival? - Yes, and the Umkippen issue is worse than we thought.
You need to get the hell out of there.
I know, but see, that's where the "in over our heads" part comes in, 'cause, uh Rosalee kind of got herself put into the show.
- What? - But we found out who's got the Umkippen, and you were right, it's the Blutbad, Max.
- We're almost there.
- Good, 'cause I gotta go.
A warning, my friends.
What you're about to see will live in your fear for years, for this is no nightmare, and truth truly is stranger than fiction.
Oh, my God.
Behold Damien, the last dragon of God's green earth, whose ferocious nature proves that we are lucky they did not devour us all.
Witness the vile Ivan.
The beautiful Rosalee, who proves that beauty is but skin deep and that a beast resides within us all.
Rosalee Show us.
Rosalee.
Max, this is not your cue.
But every so often, something appears that is so vicious, so terrible, it cannot be tamed.
For this beast this beast Back! Get back! Get out! I don't think that's part of the show.
- Max, stop! - Max! Oh, my God, no! Max, stop! Monroe! Move! Grimm! Monroe, stop! Now, stop! Stop, he's sick.
We have to help him.
Oh, my God.
What happened? What did I do? It's okay.
You're gonna be okay.
You're gonna be okay.
Hedig.
Hedig.
Hedig.
The cop, he's a Grimm.
He'll kill us all.
You need to get me out.
You pushed Max too hard.
And you were going to let him take the fall for something you did.
And we can't let you get away with that.
I did it for you.
I did it for all of you.
You'd be gutter trash without me.
I gave you I gave you a life.
I gave you purpose.
I gave you a family.
It may not be justice in the eyes of the law.
I don't think that would matter to the people he killed.
Close it.
Nothing we can prove here.
I called the place you recommended.
They've got a bed waiting for Max.
How's he doing? We're gonna make sure he gets the help he needs.
It's gonna take some time.
If we don't take care of each other, who will? Thank you.
Rosalee? In the bathroom.
I'm getting dressed.
Getting dressed for what? I thought we were going to bed.
Not yet.
