Wolfblood (2012) s01e11 Episode Script

Eolas

Someone's there! Someone's spying on us! The same scent.
Wild Wolfblood.
Ah, you've seen her too, have you? The homeless woman who's sleeping rough.
I am not a cub any more, I'm a wolf! - Now do what your mother says! - No! - Get to your room! - Maddy! Always the same, loners.
Afraid of failure.
Rhydian! Leave him alone! I can't.
Who are you? What d'you want? - I'm your mother.
- I don't have a - I am.
I am your mother.
- No! - You can't just run away.
- It won't be the first time.
There are senses you've never even used, things you can do that you've never even imagined.
We call it Eolas.
It's not too late to change your mind.
Rhydian! We're going to Bernie's, you coming? I don't know about this, Rhydian.
Trust me, OK? I know exactly what I'm doing.
Just don't move! There's no way you can do this.
I don't know - We'll see.
- OK, let's see.
Come on.
It's like watching one of those nature films.
But not as educational.
Go for it.
No way! Whoa.
How is that even possible? Oi Oi, you! - Hey, Mads.
- Don't "Hey, Mads" me.
What just happened? I've been putting in a lot of practice.
This is me.
I know what we can and can't do and what you just pulled off, it's not on the list.
- You're a real pain, you know that? - Uh-huh.
- Do you really want to know? - Spill.
Not here.
Meet me in the woods after school.
Focus on my eyes OK.
OK, don't get all creepy on me.
Just relax.
Breathe.
Mum told me the Wildbloods call it Eolas.
She said you can't just look, you have to feel.
Feel what's under you.
Feel what's around you.
If you can you'll connect to your oldest instincts, your primal nature, and then you'll know what Eolas is.
I'm trying to focus here.
Are you OK? I can see everything.
Hear everything.
This is amazing.
Maddy! Maddy, not that way! Maddy, wait! - Maddy! - Whoo! Maddy! - Snap out of it! - I can't! You're too near the pylon.
Maddy? Maddy? Wake up! - What just happened? - Seriously, Maddy, you've got to be careful with this stuff.
You did what? Em, go easy I don't see the problem, Mum.
It's amazing! It's not amazing, it's dangerous! How would you know, if you've never tried it? That's not the point! I'm the one who should be upset, I'm the one who had to find out from someone else's mam! Ceri taught you how to do this? No, she taught me then I taught Maddy.
It just went a bit wrong.
A bit wrong? She passed out! That's exactly why we didn't want you finding out about this nonsense.
I think Maddy's right, I think it was our job to tell her.
My job.
I've been there, I've done that.
You've used Eolas? I dabbled a bit when I was younger.
Dan! What? It was fun.
As long as you keep it in the wild.
She only came a cropper because of the electricity, it's no-one's fault.
I think you better go home, Rhydian.
See you tomorrow, Mads.
Well, that was rude.
I don't want you messing with it again.
Do you understand? Eolas wrecks families, lives! The only person wrecking things, is you! Nice job.
Very supportive.
- We're supposed to be a team! - Yeah, my thoughts, exactly.
Don't you care about your daughter? Of course I care! I'm talking about you, treating my opinions like they're worthless! Yeah, come on You know, Jeffries will confiscate those.
I'm terrified.
First she has a go at me and then Dad.
She's driving me nuts, like I'm still some cub.
Some what? Nothing.
What are you doing? You're using Eolas! In here? Wow.
Glad you're putting your primal nature to such good use.
Well this is a pleasant surprise.
- Dad, are you OK? - Ah! Oh, Maddy! Don't creep up on a person.
What are you doing? Erm, yoga.
I'm doing a bit of yoga.
It's very good, you know.
It's tough.
Ooh, but it's good.
Oh, really? You're a terrible liar, Dad.
I'll take that as a compliment.
Dad? How old were you when you first learned about Eolas? Why did you stop? I met your mum.
She's always one for emphasising the human, you know what she's like.
She's right, mostly.
It's up to us to fit in, not the other way around.
I don't see why we can't fit in and be special.
Why can't you do it any more? Don't know.
Maybe if you don't use it you lose it.
Maybe it's just beyond me now.
It has been decades.
That's awful.
Well, it's not like I need it or anything.
Dad? Madeleine.
Are you and Mum OK? Of course we are.
Well, I heard you fighting last night.
And how often does that happen? Never! That's my point! Sweetheart, we're fine.
Your mum's just worried about you, that's all.
It wasn't all about me.
Maddy, as you grow older, you'll realise that relationships aren't easy.
These things happen.
Where is Mum, anyway? Are you looking for me, Mrs Smith? How can I help you? You can help by promising not to use Eolas around Maddy.
Or encourage her in any way.
I don't even want you talking about it, do you understand? You can't tell us what we're allowed to talk about.
That's exactly what I'm doing.
Don't you think you're being unreasonable? If you thought about someone besides yourself, for once you'd realise it's for her own good! Do we have an agreement? - Has Maddy agreed to this? - I'm telling you, not Maddy.
All right, I'll do it.
- If Maddy agrees.
- Right.
That's it.
You're not seeing her again.
- Excuse me? - You're not seeing her again.
We're in the same class.
Then I forbid you to see her out of class.
Before electricity, most Wolfbloods lived in towns.
Well, on the outskirts anyway.
Eolas was just taken for granted.
A way to stay connected to their pack.
So, why's Mum so dead set against it? Because it's supposed to be addictive and it doesn't seem to work in the modern world.
Some people say it drives Wolfbloods mad, drives them back to the wild.
Do you agree? To tell the truth, I don't know.
Maybe it affects some more than others.
Like some humans can control their emotions and appetites more than others.
Oh, hello.
Where did you get to? - I went to see Rhydian.
- Rhydian? You're not to hang out with him any more.
Excuse me? Outside of school, he's persona non grata.
- Do I make myself clear? - No! No, you do not make yourself clear! - You can't tell me what to do! - Yes, I can, young lady.
You're not seeing him again until both of you promise me to my face that you'll never use Eolas ever again.
How dare you just come in here and talk to me like that! I'm a Wolfblood now! Not some little cub you can just boss round! In my house, under my rules, you are a cub, our cub, and you'll do as you're told! Dad doesn't agree! Tell her! Oh, great.
You're scared of her.
- No, no, I'm not.
- Yeah! You are! You're both scared! We're Wolfbloods, Mam! Not humans! And Eolas is mine to do what I want with it! Madeleine! Get back here! I am talking to you!! You handled that well.
Yeah, well somebody had to! You know, mostly speaking, living with two alpha females is a total joyride, but this has to stop.
Yeah, well do more to control your daughter and it will! - What's happened? - My mother.
- Can you put us up for a few days? - Can I what? Rhydian! Please, she's driving us mad.
I can't live with her any more.
Maddy! Do you have any idea what your mum would do to me? She doesn't have to know.
Cos she'd never be able to track you back to my house, what was I thinking? - She told you what she said to me? - Yeah! that I'm not allowed to see you outside of school, it's ridiculous! Well, maybe you should just take it on the chin, knuckle under, and wait for her to calm down.
No way.
What's wrong with everyone? All I want to do is live my life as a Wolfblood, which I am.
I'm sick of being lied to and manipulated.
You know your parents care about you, even if they have got a weird way of showing it.
They don't care about us, they're just scared of being Wolfbloods.
Hang on, I'd give my canines to have what you have.
Stop being such a brat and go home.
Right.
Well, thanks for all the support.
Oh, come on.
Look, it'll work out, you know it will.
- Where are you going? - What do you care? - Her uniform's gone.
- Maybe she just didn't feel like having breakfast with us.
And some of her clothes and her rucksack.
- Do you think she? - What? Run away? Can't say I'd be surprised.
Oh, right, OK.
Well, sorry to trouble you and thanks anyway.
Take care, bye.
Rhydian's gone to school as normal, she said.
Where is she? I haven't seen her since late last night.
You saw her last night? She came to mine, but I told her to go home.
And she left.
She's not been into school today then? - No - Where's Tom and Shannon? They're in class.
, but they haven't seen her either.
- How do you know? - Trust me, I'd know.
Don't worry, she's making a point.
We'll find her in the woods somewhere, cooling off.
I'll come with you.
No! You can't miss school.
We'll find her.
But I can see her.
We don't need you seeing anything! You think Wolfbloods can't track their own cubs? Thanks, anyway.
Mr and Mrs Smith.
To what do we owe the pleasure? - Maddy's not well.
- I'm sorry to hear that.
Yes, so we came to ask Rhydian to bring us any homework she might get.
Thanks, Rhydian.
And bye, Mr Jeffries.
Em, can you smell that? Do you still mad at me? What do you think? You pushed her to this.
Yeah, I know.
Well, why? You haven't given us a decent reason why.
Do you remember me telling you about Louise? Your cousin who moved away when you were at school.
She didn't move away.
She ran away.
Why? Because she discovered Eolas.
It was all she talked about, all she cared about.
She didn't have any time for me any more, or her family.
She was playing truant every day and then she just vanished.
My family had no choice but to call the police.
As far as they were concerned, she was just another missing young girl.
She still is.
- But we knew better.
- She went wild.
Why did you never tell us this? Because I keep thinking that she's going to come back.
Oh, Em.
We're going to find Maddy.
I promise.
Ow! Maddy! Madeleine! Maddy! I've got her scent! No, it's this way! Where'd she go? I can find her.
Stop! Traitor.
You're supposed to be on my side! Our side! Maddy! You don't know what you're doing! No! You don't know what you're doing, helping them! This is who we are.
This is what we're meant to be! Maddy, listen to me! No, you listen! You lied to us! You knew about Eolas.
And withheld it from us! You withheld my birthright.
I'm sorry! It's my fault! Come out and we'll talk about it.
That's all you ever do! Talk.
To control and manipulate us.
Maddy! That's not true.
How would you know? She's got you under the thumb as well! Don't you talk to your father like that! Everything this man does he does for you! Man!? He's not supposed to be a man! He's supposed to be a Wolfblood! You don't understand, Maddy! Eolas is dangerous, it's addictive.
More lies! Eolas is our birthright.
And I'll use it how I please.
Well, that's just it.
You're not using it, Maddy, it's using you.
- Come and get us then.
- Maddy! Wait! We've lost her.
Sorry, Mrs S.
If I'd known this would happen I wouldn't have let Maddy near Eolas.
What I don't understand is why you're not crazy with it.
Don't know.
Maybe it's in my genes, my mum being wild and all.
Well, I appreciate you helping us.
Any trouble you get into, missing school, we'll come up with something to explain it.
- Thanks.
- It's OK.
Where exactly are we going? She could be anywhere.
Just keep going.
- Can you see her? - No, it's just a feeling.
Get us away from those pylons! Stop the car! That's it! That's the truck! Where's Maddy? Can you see her? Rhydian? Rhydian! Let's get him to a park, closer to nature.
Come on, we've got you.
Come on, that's it, you'll be OK.
Wait here.
Please, Rhydian try if you're in this state imagine how she feels.
- I can't do it here.
I'm sorry.
- Try again.
Em, enough.
You're torturing the boy.
Our daughter's out there in pain! Yeah, I know that! Let me try.
You don't look happy.
You look a right state.
Been homeless long? I'm Jude.
Maddy.
What you running away from, Maddy? I don't know any more.
Don't cry.
It'll be all right.
I don't even know why I'm here.
I hate the city.
My head hurts.
Maybe you need some food.
I'd get you a burger or something butI'm skint.
I've got money.
Yeah? Where? In your rucksack, is it? Just relax, Dan, you're tense.
- I'm trying.
- You're not supposed to try.
Where are you going? To find our daughter.
Stay there with Rhydian.
Where you going? There's no way out down there.
Just give me the rucksack and you won't get hurt.
Are you growling at me? She's growling at me.
Give it me.
Get away from my daughter! Like werewolves, do you? Well, they don't like you! Mam.
I'm sorry.
I am so sorry.
It's OK, pet.
You're safe now, you're safe.
I am never using Eolas again.
I'm sorry about the mean things I said.
What mean things? Mum said I've got you to thank, you're the one that tracked us down.
I lost you once you jumped into the back of that truck.
So how exactly did you find us? Good old-fashioned scent.
Like I told Rhydian.
A Wolfblood can always track her cub.
Mam! How many times, I am not a cub! Don't you flash your eyes at me.
Stop calling us a cub.
Stop behaving like one and I will.
Stop treating us like one and I'll stop behaving like one.
You don't set the rules, Maddy.
What's it got to do with rules? It's got everything to do with rules.
- Why are you changing the subject? - I'm not changing the subject.
- You obviously are - Mostly speaking, living with two alpha females is a total joyride.
All doors and windows locked.
No-one's getting in or out tonight.
Is Shannon Kelly here? Kyle Weathers.
I've come a long way to find you.
- Are they? - This is bait.
A scent engineered at cellular level to attract the predatory olfactory system.
- Maddy? - I'm sorry.
Maddy! Open this door!
