05x25 - Now

[bunniefuu]

(Audrey): Previously on Haven...

- Hello, Dove.
- Croatoan.

- Not Dad?
Clearly we have a lot of catching up to do.

- What they did to you,
turning you into the Barn's controller...

Could you do it to me?

- Vince! What have you done?
- What I had to.

- It's a Holloway Trouble,
where a building merges with a person.

(phone rings)
Are you trying to talk to me?

It's Laverne.

- Who am I talking to right now? Duke?
- No.

This is what I am.

- Croatoan's inside your head.
You can force him out.

Don't let him control you.

- Daddy?

- I need to teach you a lesson.

(cr*ck)
(screams)

- You can control the Troubles
that you take from people?

- They're gifts, and in the right hands,
they can accomplish anything.

I created you.

- All the times
that you asked me to k*ll for you,

look what I have become,
what you turned me into.

- I got snacks from the vending machine.

- Please tell me you got the P3 unstuck
and that's a Baby Ruth in your hand.

(groans)

- Sorry.
- Ah.

- Granola.

Laverne controls the vending machine now.
She only dispenses the healthy stuff.

A little healthy wouldn't hurt.

How you holding up?

You must be exhausted.
- Croatoan locked me in a child's room

and said he was going to help
my friends, make them happy.

It was scarier than a flat-out thr*at.

- Sounds terrifying.

I'm sorry.
- He was different than I expected.

So much hurt.

He really thinks that he's
doing the right thing.

- By getting you to help him Trouble people.
- It's more than that.

He's a father that wants his daughter back.

- But you are not his daughter.

Mara was. She's dead.

- But when he looks at me, he sees her.

- Which is why we need
to get this thing fixed,

get that Barn built,
send that monster back to the Void.

- Has Vince come up with anything yet?

- No, not yet.

Dwight's working on it with him.
He's got him stashed away just in case...

- In case Duke comes after him.

Has anybody seen him
since he took the census?

- No.
- If Croatoan gets those Troubles,

he's gonna use them against us.
- He's not gonna get the chance.

We're gonna get Duke back.

(dramatic music)

(metallic clatter)

(breathing heavily)

- Victor Kirby.

I knew your aunt.

She could see the future too.

Anyone she touched...

Vanessa knew exactly
how they were going to die.

- What do you want?

- Your Trouble.

- But why?
It's horrible.

- Not for Croatoan.

He can turn it into a power,

use it to show his daughter

how amazing the future can be

if she joins him.

- Please don't.

- You look so worried, Kirby.

But don't you know what's going to happen?

Haven't you seen
how you're going to meet your end?

- I've tried, but I can only see
how other people die, not me.

- If you had seen it,

it would've looked a lot like this.

(groans)

- I know how it ends for you, Crocker.

I can see it.

Just like Vanessa did.

- I'm not that man anymore.

(theme music)

- Vince says there's nothing in his
new programming to fix the Aether core.

- I was afraid of that.
How's he doing otherwise?

- He says he feels mostly the same,
but it's gotta be weird.

- Being turned into an
otherworldly crystal, yeah.

I'd feel better if I at least knew
where you hid it.

- You can trust me, Nathan.

- Of course I can.

You keep working with Vince.

We'll try to figure out
a way to fix the core on our end.

- I'll call you if we manage
to come up with something.

- Why don't you want
to tell them about Lizzie?

Because you're afraid they'll take her?

- I need to know what she is.

- An Aether creature maybe,
like the ones William made?

Or a product of a Trouble?

A resurrection Trouble.

You don't think
she could actually be Lizzie?

- No. My daughter's dead.

It's Duke. He's out there.

- Daddy, what's wrong?
- Nothing, honey. Everything's fine.

- Why is he just standing there?
What's he waiting for?

- Okay, I want you to take
Lizzie to the back stairs.

If Duke comes in, I want you to both run.
- But what about you?

- I'll buy you some time.
Couple of minutes.

- You can't confront him.
- I can't let him get a hold of you.

He might be here for Lizzie.

Please.

Lizzie, I need you to go
with Uncle Vince, okay?

- No, I want to stay here with you.

- Honey, it's a game.

You and Vince go hide
and see how long it takes for me to find you.

- Oh, I love hide and seek.

Okay, you count down from 100,
and we'll hide.

- Come on. I know a good hiding spot.

- 100, 99...

98...

97...

- Oh, he was stabbed in the chest.
It looks like Duke's work, all right.

- Poor Victor. He didn't stand a chance.

- Anyway, I gotta go.
Intern's watching baby Aaron,

and she keeps giving him apple juice.

You think Croatoan's tough,
try an infant on a sugar high.

- Vickie.

Vickie still has her sketching Trouble.

So maybe if she can draw the Aether core,

she can put it back together.

She can make it whole again.
- It's worth a sh*t.

I'll have her meet us at the station.

- Croatoan.

(g*nf*re)

- You must be Nathan.

An "ask questions later" kind of guy.

I like you already.
- You bastard...

- Nathan, the Troubles he holds...
We can't hurt him.

- Smart, pragmatic.

That's my girl.

And right as usual.

Strike rne, and your
internal organs liquefy.

A Trouble I gathered from your census.

- Why did Duke k*ll Kirby?
To take his Trouble?

- Collecting Troubles
was what I designed him to do.

- So you could take them with you,
use them for your revenge?

- No, you're going to design those Troubles.

Oh, these are for my personal use.

- So what, you're just here
to make sure Duke stays on schedule?

- No, no, Duke's fine.

I'm here to talk to you, Nathan.

You're a lucky man.

From my conversations with my daughter,

I can tell she loves you very much.
She'll do anything to make you happy.

And that's very hard to find.

- Leave Nathan alone.

- As I promised you, I'm here to help him.

Nathan,

what if I could offer you
a new life far from here,

the life you've always wanted
with the woman you love?

Audrey.

There she is, Nathan.

Everything you've ever wanted.

And I'm giving her to you.

- You want to give me a copy of Audrey?

- One that loves you with all her heart.

I'll take you both outside the shroud,

set you up in a new life
far away from here.

Neither one of you will remember Haven.

Nathan, I'm offering you a fresh start.

- Why?
Why would you do this?

- Oh, Dove,

what is coming...

It'll be such a wonderful time for us.

You don't have to worry about Nathan.

This way you know he's taken care of,
that he's happy.

- You think that copy can make me happy?

- I assure you you will never know

or be able to tell the difference.

- If she's so perfect,
why don't you just keep her for yourself?

- I said you would never know the difference.
I'm her father. I would know.

- You think I would abandon Audrey
for some illusion?

I belong here in Haven,
with Audrey, fighting you.

- What do you want, Duke?

- Question is, what do you want, Dwight?

- Right now I want to k*ll you
for murdering my friends

and betraying us to Croatoan.

- I'm afraid that's not going to happen.

Do you have a second choice,

like, perhaps, raising your daughter?

- My daughter's dead.

- No. She's right in there.

- That's not Lizzie.
- Are you sure?

Croatoan used a very special Trouble
to bring her back.

He must really like you.

- Yeah. Why did he send you here, Duke?
What does Croatoan want'?

- The controller crystal.

- What makes him think I have it?
- He knows that you have it.

- The crystal isn't here.

- Then go and get it.

Deliver it to Croatoan,
and he will let you keep Lizzie.

- I think you know me better than that, Duke.
- Then he will come for her.

Or maybe he'll just send me.

- Where's Lizzie?

- Upstairs.
What did Duke want?

- He said Lizzie's some kind
of gift from Croatoan,

an example of his power.

- He's going to let you keep her?

(sighs)
I'm not even sure she is a her.

Come on, Vince,
she can't really be my daughter.

- I see the way you look at her, Dwight.

It's not just that child.

A part of you
has been brought back to life here.

- Losing Lizzie...

watching those b*ll*ts
tear into her, it was like dying.

For a long time, I wanted to die.

Thought about ending it, a lot.
- I know.

I was afraid for you.

(sighs)

- It took so long to crawl out of that hole.

I can't go through that again.

- I know.

And to this day, I feel responsible.

I led the Guard.

They were my men who sh*t Lizzie.

I couldn't make it right back then.

I can never make it right.

How terribly ironic if Croatoan can.

- I can't believe I let you involve
Intern in all of this.

What if Croatoan finds out
she's helping you and sends Duke after her?

- If my Trouble can fix it,
you know I have to try, Gloria.

- It doesn't mean I have to like it.

- It's really good, Vickie.

- When I'm done, if we fold it here,

the cr*ck in the core should close.

- And then we will give it to Vince,

and finally we can build a new Barn.

- Get rid of Croatoan.

(chuckles)
Rock, paper, scissors.

Stick with the paper, kid.
They never see it coming.

- Got a few more security cameras going.

Perimeter looks good.

- We... I think we might need
to talk about something.

- Ah.

I'm not leaving you.

- Croatoan's offer has to be a little...
tempting.

- You're asking me
if I want all this to be over,

live behind some white picket fence,

adopt a shelter dog?
(scoffs)

Of course I do.

But I want that
with the real Audrey Parker,

not some copy.

- You wouldn't even remember
that she wasn't real.

How can I claim to love you as much as I do
if I don't at least give you that chance?

- Your asking me to consider this is exactly

the reason why I never, never could.

Vickie's almost done with the core.

We are gonna b*at Croatoan, save Duke,

and get our lives back.

- Yeah.

(phone beeps)

Laverne, do you have something?

Duke.

- Come out, come out,

wherever you are.

Where did they run to, Laverne?

(chuckles)

You can play all the games you want.

I'm getting what I came for.

Vickie, you have been very, very busy.

Still warm, Nathan.

- Okay, what do we do now?

- Well, we can't stay here.

- Why? We're 3 feet above the lava.

- We need to rescue the princess
before the dragon gets her.

- I thought you were the princess.
- No, silly, I'm Lizzie the Lionhearted,

and you're Dwight the Dauntless.
It's how we always play.

- Right. Right. Okay.

Well, we need some stepping stones.

- Here goes nothing.
- Hang on.

(both laugh)
We made it. Did we rescue the princess?

- Yes, but you melted your feet.

- Oh.
(exhales)

Darn.

It's been a while. I'm a little rusty.
- Dad, we played last week.

- Lizzie...

That was a lot of fun.

There's some milk and cookies
in the kitchen.

I'd say we deserve them.
(laughs)

- She has no idea she d*ed?

- No, but she remembers everything else.

She even called herself
Lizzie the Lionhearted.

How could she know that?

- Have you noticed anything
different about her'?

- Not yet. But the cookies...
(tapping)

The cookies are a test.
- A test?

- It's been a thing for her
since her mother left.

I stocked that kitchen
with ten types of cookies.

If that's my daughter,
she'll bring out two types,

her favorite and her least favorite,
arranged on the plate like a flower.

- Oh.

- Milk and cookies, Mr. Teagues.

(laughs)
- What a polite young lady.

Thank you, Lizzie.

- How's it going, Vickie?

- Almost there.
- Hurry. Laverne may have been able

to move this wall to hide us,
but Duke won't be fooled for long.

- Or fooled at all.

Duke knows this place
like the back of his hand, poor kid.

- Finished.

- Good.
So if you fold it,

the core should be able
to fuse together, right?

Nathan.
- Duke.

Stop.
Don't make me sh**t.

Duke.

Go.

(grunts)

(Audrey): We have to get the core fixed.

Laverne, slow him down.

(gasps)

(Duke): I want that drawing, Vickie.
- Jesus.

Duke, please. This isn't you.

- Oh, this is me, just with improvements.

- The Duke I know stands up
to bullies like Croatoan.

You don't want to hurt Vickie.

- I should've k*lled you
when you were a statue.

(grunts)

(Nathan): Go.

The Aether core.
- Got it.

- No!

You don't.

Ah...

- No...

- I always liked your Trouble, Vickie.

I can't wait to try it out.

Oh, is it your turn now?

You're going to tell me
how much I mean to you?

How we're family?
- No.

- No?

Hundreds and hundreds
of your little speeches...

"Trouble whispering"
all of your little lambs.

You must have something special
in your bag of trick for me.

- I'm not going to tell you
what you already know,

that what you're doing is wrong.

I'm not going to beg for our lives, Duke.

- Don't be so melodramatic.

Croatoan wants you alive.

Nathan too, for now.

As long as the old lady
doesn't get in my way,

I will take the artiste and go.

(Sobs)

- I will not let you k*ll Vickie.
- Oh, I see.

You'll only let me k*ll
when it serves your purpose.

Well, I don't work for you anymore.

- You never worked for us.
- No, Duke's right.

We used you.

I... used you.

When we found out
about the Crocker family curse,

about what it could do,

I used that as a tool to stop the Troubles
because that's what I was sent here to do.

But I didn't think about how much
it was going to hurt you,

how k*lling all of those people, how...

how it would change you.

- It didn't change anything.

This was always meant to be.

- I don't think it was.

I think you were fighting your destiny.

And if left alone,
maybe you might have even won.

But I didn't know that.

And I came along,
and I sent you on that path.

And for that, I am truly sorry.

I know how it feels, Duke,
to be fighting to be the person

that you want to be when everyone
is telling you to be someone else.

Croatoan thinks that I'm his daughter.

L-I look like her.

I sound like her.

Do you know how easy it
would be to just say,

"Sure,

it's good to see you, Dad,"

and stop being scared?

I'm so tired.

I'm so tired of fighting my destiny.

But I can't give up.

Because when I look in the mirror,

I only see me.

I see the person that I truly am.

The only person I want to be.

So tell me, Duke,
when you look in the mirror,

when no one else is around,

who are you?

(clattering)

- I'm Duke Crocker.

And I just want to go back
to being a pirate.

(sobbing)

- Time to eat your peanut butter.
I already ate mine. Yuck.

- Maybe we shouldn't eat
the cookies we don't like.

- But we always do it that way.
You have to eat the yucky one.

- Why, Lizzie?

Why do we always eat
a cookie we don't like?

- 'Cause that's how life is.

Sometimes it hands you a bad cookie,
like when you got hurt in the Army,

or when Mom left us.

- But if you hang in there,
the good cookies will come, right?

- Right, like how we still have each other.

- Like how we still have each other.

(gentle music)

- Hey.

- Welcome back, kiddo.

- Glad to be back.

- I knew you could b*at him.

- Yeah, not soon enough.

- We have to make sure
that Croatoan doesn't find out about you.

Is there any way that you can use
your phasing Trouble to get out of town?

- I'm not going anywhere.

I'm going to k*ll Croatoan.

- No. No way.
You're not going anywhere near him.

- Nathan, the things that he made me do,

the people I k*lled, the friends I hurt,

what I did to the both of you...
He's trying to split you up.

He knows you are stronger together.

Please, you have to let me help.

I need to make things right.

- You will.

I promise.

But we have to be careful.

If Croatoan gets a hold of
one of your Troubles...

(eerie music)

(groaning)

What? What's wrong?

- He knows.

Croatoan knows.

He's taking them. I can't stop him.

- What can we do?

There's got to be something that we can do.

- There is.

You have to k*ll me.

You have to k*ll me. Now.

Before he takes any more!

- There has to be another way.
- There isn't!

- Duke...
- Whenever a Crocker has d*ed,

the Troubles stayed with him!

If I'm dead,

Croatoan has no way of collecting them.

- No, Duke.

I can't.

- Yes, you can, Nathan.

You can to save Haven, to save Audrey.

- No. No, not like this.

- I'd do it myself,
I'd go to the roof and jump.

But if I break open
and bleed out all my Troubles,

then I d*ed for nothing!

Croatoan took everything from me.

I have to take something back.

I have to choose my destiny.

I have to show Croatoan
that Duke Crocker's nobody's bitch.

So please.

Please.

Come on, please.

Please!

(sighs)

Gloria?

- No, I'm sorry, Duke.

- Do you see that?

Who knows which one that was!

You have no idea the horrible Troubles
that I've taken inside of rne!

And if I let Croatoan get them,
then he wins!

That's not my destiny.

That's not me.

- No.

- Nathan, please.

I can't do it myself.

There's no time.

- I know.

(sighs)

Everything's gonna be all right.

(gasps)

(Audrey): Nathan.

(grunts)

(crying)

Hey.

Duke, it's gonna be okay, all right?

We love you.

- You are the bravest man I ever met,
Duke Crocker, you always have been.

So much we've done together.

So much we never could've done without you.

I owe you so much.

I will spend the rest of my life
trying to repay that debt.

- Oh, God.

(somber music)

(exhales)

- I'm so sorry.
What Duke became wasn't who he was.

- No, and in the end, it's what saved us.

- Maybe all of Haven.

It stopped Croatoan
from getting his Troubles.

- The Aether core, it's destroyed.

There will be no way to build a new Barn,
no way to end the Troubles.

(somber music)

- Dwight, maybe you can just help me
get him to the truck.

We'll put him on ice until we can give him
a proper burial at sea with Jennifer.

He would like that.
(Nathan): Yeah.

At sea.

I'm gonna take a walk.
Be back in a minute.

(sighs)

(footsteps approaching)

- Oh, Dwight, glad you came.

- That makes one of us.
- Difficult decision, I'm sure.

You brought the crystal?

- Crystal's useless now.
Why do you even want it?

- Useless to you.

I can do wonders
with the technology behind it.

- What do you mean?

- This room is similar
to the one my daughter grew up in.

I intend to make an exact copy
of this entire house.

- You want to rebuild a house?

- Not a house, a home.

When Audrey joins me,

we'll live here together,
and we'll be a family once again.

Without Charlotte, of course.

- Because you m*rder*d her.

- Charlotte betrayed me.

She had me banished.

Then she tried to poison Mara with lies.
Then she k*lled her.

- Mara was evil.

Like father, like daughter.
But Charlotte...

- Charlotte was good in the sack.
Yeah, she had that going for her.

You know, Dwight,

you're lucky that I have
other concerns right now.

You've seen what I can do with people
who try to take what's mine.

So...

the crystal or Lizzie?

Which are you gonna bring me?

Are you really going to walk away?

I'm giving you a second chance
with your daughter, Dwight.

I, more than anyone,
know how remarkable that can be.

Are you really going to walk away from it?

- I'll be back in a few hours.

With the crystal.

- You made the right choice, Dwight.

You all have.

(soft music)

(chuckles)

- Thanks, Laverne.

I needed that.

(phone ringing)

Laverne, what is it?

Is some... is something wrong?

Good, Nathan's back.

Laverne, where is he going?

Try to follow him.

No.

Where are they going?

- Last time it was the carrot,
so I assume you're here with a stick.

(chuckles)

- There's that wry sense of humor
the girls love.

Mara thought William was hilarious.

I thought he was a moron.

What do you want?

- To offer my condolences.
Shame about Duke.

The Crockers grew so cowardly
over the years.

Duke d*ed so you wouldn't get
any of his Troubles.

He d*ed a hero.

- He walked away from greatness.

Have you thought any more about my offer?

- No.

My future's here.

- Not without Audrey, it isn't.

- What have you done with Audrey?

Where is she?

- Audrey is going to be exactly
where she belongs...

By her father's side.
Which means you...

need to leave Haven.

I knew you'd come here, someplace familiar.

If you need to talk...

- What have you done with Nathan?

If you've hurt him...

- Hurt him?

Nathan told me he had said his goodbyes.

- His goodbyes?

What does that mean?

- Before he left with your copy.

I thought you knew. I'm so sorry.

- No.

No, that's not true.

- I'm afraid it is.

Nathan is...

beyond the shroud.

(indistinct chatter)

- Parker.

- Nathan.

This is weird.

- Yeah.

- What can I get you two?

- Uh, actually maybe you could tell me,

did you see us come in?

- Oh, things get so busy
around here sometimes,

all I see are hash browns.

But...

now that I come to think of it,
I could've sworn this table was empty,

and then I turned around,
and there you were.

Ah, maybe we all need a cup of coffee?

- Sugar.
- Black.

- Thanks.

Don't worry.

At least we're together.
We'll figure it out.

- Yeah.
We always do.

- Nathan told me he changed his mind.

The tragedy of having to k*ll his friend...

He realized the futility of fighting me.

- No.

Nathan never would've left
of his own free will.

- I'm sorry, but it's true.

He begged me to take him away from Haven.

He said that... saving the world...

had become too exhausting.

I know you're upset.
But really, isn't this what you want?

Nathan far away

from the terrible dangers
he would've faced?

- Dangers?

- Well, once we begin our experiments,

there will be a lot of trial and error.

Things will become...

volatile.

- No. I'm not helping you.

- This is what you were meant to do.

Nathan abandoned you.

But not me.

I will never abandon you.

You don't have to be so morose.

Attitude is the paintbrush
that colors our world.

(thunder)

What we're about to do will be wonderful.

(shivers)

- What is that?

- Mm, the question is, what is behind that?

I'm using an abrasion Trouble

to create an opening to the Void.

Why is it...
- Turning black?

It's filling with Aether.

And soon it will rain,

and then you and I will begin our work.

And it won't seem like work
because we'll have casual Friday,

we'll have music, bring dogs.

Take a few hours
before there's enough Aether...

and we can get to work, so...

90 grieve,

make your peace,
do whatever you have to do to move on,

because Nathan

is gone.

Your life...

is with me, here,

now.
