Hey. I got somethin' to tell
ya about that other night there.

I said some really beautiful things,

like I really opened up to
you, and you weren't there.

Yeah. 'Cause you were drunk.

Yeah, drunk, but that was my heart.

That was... When you're drunk,
that's your heart talking.

I was like... [SOBS] Oh, is she dead?

Oh, we family. [SOBS]

Which is when you would've said,

"Nah, you're not a
sh*t dad. I love you."

Big rain, snot, tears, heart.

Another beautiful moment

[LUCAS] The risk is too great.

If he knew I was here...

Well, then, why areyou here?

Because you're sick of being
under his control, like me.

And we have to tolerate his treatment.

Why?

Because he came on the first ship?

[LUCAS] Where's Alma? She should
be here with the girl by now.

[GASPS]

Alma.

Mmm. Mmm. Mmm! Mmm.

[CAR DOORS SHUT]

Mmm!

[DOOR OPENS]

Hey! Vampire!

- I know about the bleeder.
- Don't listen to her!

She's alive and I can help you get her.

[TYSON] Neeks, rip the sucker!

- What is this?
- [ELEONA] It's an offer.

I'll help you bring back the bleeder

if you help me k*ll the King.

You have no idea the

I got something for you here.

There we go.

Go.

Just had the worst of it.

You're almost there.

And I'm gonna take care of you now.

Ahhh. The little vampire
who wanted to be human.

I'm here to see the King.

Hope you're ready to get on
your hands and knees and beg.

Everyone hates you, Matthew.

I'll take her.

What are you doing?

I'm here to see the King, like I said.

I thought you and Alma were gonna wait.

Yeah, well, Alma's
dead, so I can't wait.

I want it to stop.

I know you've been following me.

I know you've been watchin' me.

I know you k*lled everyone around me.

[LAUGHS MIRTHLESSLY]

And I get the message, right?

You are angry that I left.

Maybe we could come
to some sort of truce.

Are you afraid of me?

No, I'm scared of the situation...

... of being near you again.

Josiah.

Nothin'. Why?

I'm old, I'm black, but I'm not stupid.

We went down and found her mum.

Found her mum?

She's a bleeder.

But we couldn't get her out.

That's why there's been att*cks
above ground. King is pissed.

- You stirred the nest.
- Hey, don't blame me.

Jalingbirri went down first.
I just pissed them off again.

You seem to do a lot, don't you?

Oh, here we go!

You're goin' down
there again, aren't you?

I'm still decidin' if there's
a way we can trust Eleona.

I think you should hold off
until we get the community safe.

- Here, then.
- [KEYS JANGLE]

You should hang onto
those until we get back.
