01x06 - The Worm

[bunniefuu]

LEAVE

LILA (off screen): I found out what is
ANGRY CROWD: (clapping and chanting)

LILA (off screen): happening and I wanted
to tell you that you can count on me.

PREVIOUSLY

Don't make that face, she's just a friend.

I want us to break up.

-All right. Do what you have to do.
-I'll handle this.

(suspenseful theme music plays)

-ERIC: It was you!
-PABLO: Forgive me.

You're so bad!
What do you have in your head?

I'm sick of you mixing my family up
with all your crap!

I want you to pack up all your crap
and get out of Tierra Incognita for good.

Do you hear me?

Alfajores.

-(creature growling)
-(screaming)

-ANDRÉS: (blood curdling scream)
-It's over!

ERIC: The code to decipher the log is
on the sheet I found at my aunt's house.

There are 26 symbols.
It is the alphabet.

HI ERIC - HI UMA

(ambulance sirens)

(spooky owl hoots)

There's no way out!

Close the park, Cristian.
See you later at the police station.

We can't get out! There's no way out!
No, no, no, no!

(panting while running)

(fast tempo nature music)

MANSION

Julia? Roberto?
Are you there?

(ethereal music)

(panting) Julia.

Julia.

-(mysterious ghostly whispers)
-Julia.

-(ghostly child giggling)
-(whispers continue)

(wood creaking)

Julia.

Don't worry.
Everything's going to be okay.

-What happened?
-JULIA: We have to leave.

What about Roberto?

Roberto doesn't matter anymore.
We have to go now, Daniel.

I knew one day I was going
to get you back.

Let's go.

Daniel.

(ethereal music)

(music turns dramatic and dark)

(music intensifies)

(groans from pain)

GHOST BRIDE JULIA:
(raspy breathing)

(groaning and panting)

(tearing flesh and breaking sounds)

(raspy gasping)

(music crescendos)

(low bellowing music)

Don't worry.
This isn't going to end like this.

-(music box winds and plays chimes)
-(spooky theme music plays)

-(music crescendos)
-(thunderstorm roars)

(up-tempo piano music)

ROBERTO: (voice over)
"Hi, Eric. Hi, Uma.

If you're reading this,
it means something bad happened to me.

Even though I can't be with you
at this time, I'll always be there.

After you and your mom,

these pages
are the most important thing I have."

"I've compiled years of notes
in this notebook.

I'm leaving them behind because
I still don't quite understand the nature

of the forces
that I'm experimenting with.

And maybe things won't work out."

Eric, call me.

(storm continues)

(cell phone vibrates)

NEW VOICE MESSAGE FROM PABLO

ERIC (off screen): "That's why...

I hid all the information here.

There are four parts to this logbook
hidden within Tierra Incógnita.

Each part will lead you to the next."

ROBERTO (voice over):
"The first part is concealed in the one

who loves both apples and corpses."

-"The key is within its sight..."
-(knocking on door) Can I come in?

-(thunder rumbles)
-ERIC: I'll be right down.

We already finished dinner.
I brought you this.

ERIC: Shhh.

Well, if she wakes up,
get her to eat something.

-Thanks.
-SANTIAGO: Hey. Tell me something...

How do you think Uma's doing?

Fine. She's getting better. Why?

You answer me like your grandmother.
Problems need to be confronted, Eric.

I thought you were going to tell me
that the best way to deal with problems

is to lock them up with seven keys.

Look, Grandpa. Uma's better. Really.

Cape Qwert is good for her.
She spoke again after eight years.

I don't know what happened to her
in the caves, but I'm going to find out.

This town hates us.

Those people protesting outside
is just the beginning, Eric.

-I promise you if we go home...
-This is my home.

I'm not leaving.
I'm going to show the people of this town

that my dad
isn't the monster everyone says he is.

He didn't do anything to mom. I'm sure.

Look, Eric... your dad...
They didn't know him like I did.

-I have to go out.
-Where to?

There's nothing more beautiful
than sleeping on rainy days.

Take advantage of it.

ROBERTO (voice over):
"After several failed attempts,

I was able to design a stable lamp.

Capable of generating light
from a controlled thermal pulse.

The thermal pulse was limited to fall
between 42 and 47.8 degrees Celsius.

The game I chose
for the first test was the maze."

JULIA: (muffled gasping and panting)

ROBERTO (voice over):
"I was able to adjust the

attraction-goers level
of exposure to light

in relation to the intensity
of their fear."

(muffled laughing)

ROBERTO (voice over):
"The only attraction-goer who

didn't respond like the others
was a woman named Julia Lumens.

She not only laughed,
but she wanted to repeat the experience."

(heavy rain and thunder)

He's just a boy. He has to listen to you.
Take him and leave.

It's not that easy. There's no way to
stop him. He's as stubborn as his mother.

Julia was naive and allowed herself
to be contaminated by Roberto.

Don't talk about my daughter
like that again.

I just took one of my officers
to the hospital.

Your son-in-law's park drove him crazy.

You know what? I'll make it easy for you.

I'll make sure your grandchildren
have no more reason to stay here.

But after that, you have to do your part.

(music bellows drastically)

PABLO: Eric, listen to me.

NEW VOICE MESSAGE FROM PABLO

"The experiments
yielded a compelling result.

The lamp generated uniquely vivid

and disturbing images
in the attraction-goers...

that were linked to each of the
subject's psychology and personal fears."

-(thunder roars)
-CAPE QWERT CEMETERY

-(heavy rain continues)
-(slow ominous music plays)

(suspenseful music plays)

(2-way radio chirps) (into radio):
Can't we wait for this rain to stop?

What's wrong?
Are you afraid of cemeteries?

(radio chirps) No, I still don't
understand why we're doing this.

(radio chirps) I'm the only one who needs
to understand why.

(radio chirps)
Do we bring it to the mansion afterwards?

(radio chirps) Affirmative.

(grunting while pushing)

-(loud thunder roar)
-(heavy panting)

ERIC: Uma!

ERIC:
You scared me. Are you okay?

Nightmares?

It's over. You're with me now.

If you want,
tomorrow we can go over it together.

And... I want to give this back to you.

(gentle theme music plays)

When you lie down,
try to sleep on your other side.

If you change your position,
you won't have nightmares.

It's a mystery of science, but it works.
(soft chuckle)

THERE ARE FOUR PARTS TO THIS LOGBOOK
HIDDEN WITHIN TIERRA INCOGNITA

"The first part is hidden in the one
who loves both apples and corpses."

We'll meet again today
in front of the Dalaras' house

to keep fighting for justice
for the missing boys.

-We're going.
-No, I don't want to see Axel.

And besides,
I still feel the same as I did yesterday.

I get why you don't want to see Axel,

but don't you want Agus
and Guille to be found?

Of course. But this doesn't
seem like the right way to me.

So, what's your plan? Do nothing?

We could join the search team
that Guillermo's parents are organizing.

Is it possible that what really bothers
you is that they're treating Eric?

They're blaming that family with no proof.

But they disappeared in their park, Lila.

A park that's been closed for years.
Eric just got here.

We were there too.

-But his parents...
-He isn't his parents.

And besides, we don't
even know what happened to them.

Fine, whatever.

Have you spoken to him after yesterday?

Don't you think you should
give him a call?

(muffled rock music playing in headphones)

(music stops)

(cell phone rings)

-Hi, Lila
-Hi, Eric, how are you?

Hey! Better.
I'm on my way to the park. You?

To the park? Are you sure?

Yeah. I need
to continue my research there.

Sure. Well, be careful.

I wanted to apologize
for not meeting up with you yesterday.

Don't worry, we can meet up later.

-Yeah, let me know when.
-Talk to you later.

What's up?
Are you going to see each other?

Yeah, later.

I want to tell him that not all
of us in town are against him.

Some of us feel that what he and his
family are going through is unfair.

(birds chirping)

(low hum of fluorescent lights)

Charlie?

Charlie.

Charlie, I'm at the morgue.
Let me know if I should wait for you or...

-(yell)
-(laughing from under sheet)

You're an idiot, Charlie.

It's your fault
for coming in when I'm napping.

(unique chuckle)

Too bad I was covered by the sheet
and missed the look on your face.

It must have been priceless. (deep sigh)
(continues to laugh)

How rude of me. Would you like some?
It's with mortadella.

-DANIEL: Sign this for me.
-No envelope, no signature.

(dramatic music plays)

A pleasure as always.

-(music intensifies)
-CHARLIE: (muffled chuckle)

CLOSED

-Hi, Federico.
-Hi.

Horrifying morning to both of you.

Did it ever occur to you
that the two of them went somewhere?

Without saying anything?

Maybe Guillermo returned to Terlamit
because of something urgent.

But Guillermo's parents
came looking for him.

(low muffled pop music
plays in background)

Hi, how are you?

-Hi.
-AXEL: What's up?

-Let's go to the beach.
-Lila...

We have mutual friends so we're going
to keep bumping into each other.

-I think he's right.
-He's right.

Especially now.
We need to be closer than ever.

What do you say?

-Fine.
-AXEL: Great.

Should we all go together to the Dalaras'?

Lila doesn't want to go.

Fine, everyone is free
to do what they want.

Why don't you want to go?

She says she doesn't think
it's the right way to go about this.

Besides, we won't be bothering Eric
because he'll be in the park.

I can speak for myself.

Then let's go to the park.
I'd like to talk to him.

No! Don't even think about it.

Lila, Don't worry.
I'm not going to do anything to him.

-Really?
-SABRINA: (soft chuckle)

I just want to apologize.

-What did you do with my friend Axel?
-It's me. I acted like a jerk with him.

I was wrong being so aggressive.

Besides, I think he may know something
about the boys,

even if he isn't responsible.
Lila...

If I go by myself and try to talk to him,
he won't listen.

But it you ask him for help,
he won't refuse.

He won't reject you.

We have to stick together
if we're going to find our friends.

-(dramatic shift in music)
-What do you say?

NO TRESPASSING

(low ominous music plays)

CAPE QWERT POLICE STATION

Hello.

(camera shutters)

Hello.

ANGRY CROWD (chants):
Get out of town! Get out of town!

(chanting continues muffled through walls)

Good morning, neighbors of Qwert Cape.
You all know how much I love this town...

BREAKING NEWS

Santiago. Come here, look.

And that's why I proudly shoulder
the responsibility of protecting it.

(through radio) I'm also sorry to be the
one to deliver this difficult news.

(clicks radio off)

Our town has learned to live with pain,
with unsolved mysteries.

But we never gave up or sat idle.

WORM OF DEATH

DANIEL (voice over):
As part of the exhaustive search

for Agustín Schmidt and Guillermo La Rosa,

we carried out a risky search
in Tierra Incógnita park.

ENTER

More precisely,
in the Dalaras’ family mansion.

The mansion was inspected eight years ago,

but because of the incompetence
of the commissioner at that time,

one area of the house
had not been searched.

That's where we found two bodies.

The expert opinions will be explained
by Dr. Salvatierra.

Given (clears throat)
Given the characteristics...

of the deceased
and the place where they were found,

everything points
to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Although the circumstances
remain to be determined.

The bodies correspond
to a male and a female.

The first comparisons
with respect to the genetic material

seem to indicate that the bodies belong

to Roberto Dalaras and Julia Lumens.

(weeping)

-(ominous music continues)
-(squeaking and grinding gears)

"The key is within its sight."

(soft grunting) (heavy sigh)

I want to express my condolences
to the family,

and request a moment of silence.

-Uma!
-Leave her alone.

She'll be fine.
You know she prefers to be alone.

QWERT FRIDGE

I give you my word.

We will continue investigating
until all the unknowns are resolved.

We won't rest until we find the boys.

Nothing is more painful
than unsolved cases.

But sooner or later,
everything comes to light.

-SANTIAGO: Can't you leave us alone!
-Hi, Mr. Lumens.

-Where are all the protesters?
-They left to hear the news.

I passed a few of them on my way here.
Is Eric home?

No, he's not here.
But if you see him, tell him...

Thanks!

And... here we are. Thank you very much.
I hope you enjoyed the tour.

Any last questions? Nothing?

-Excuse me, what are you watching?
-The news.

What news?

They just found the owners
of Tierra Incógnita.

AXEL: Dalaras! What a surprise.

-LILA: Axel...
-AXEL: (whispers): I already told you.

I'm not going to touch him.

You and I got off to a bad start.
Can you tell us what's going on?

-I don't understand.
-AXEL: We want to know

where our friends are.
Don't worry.

I promise to find the best way
to tell the town, so they'll forgive you.

-What are you saying? I have no idea.
-Then what are you doing here?

It's none of your business.

-Really? What's this?
-ERIC: Give it to me!

-AXEL: Hey!
-JAVIER: Hey, hey, hey.

-What is this? Witchcraft? (laughing)
-LILA: Leave him alone.

We came to look for the boys.
Stop recording.

AXEL: Eric! Think hard. Are you going
to tell us what you know, Dalaras?

I told you. I didn't
know the boys who disappeared,

and I don't know what happened.
Give those back.

SABRINA: Guys, look at this.

-AXEL (gasping): No! (chuckles)
-JAVIER: No!

-ERIC: What are you doing here?
-You arrived just in time to comfort him.

You should see this, Dalaras.

(music intensifies)

BODIES OF THE OWNERS
OF TIERRA INCOGNITA FOUND

-That's not funny. Knock it off.
-Are you really on his side?

What side?
There are no sides to this!

-PABLO (whispers): Eric, listen to me.
-ERIC: Leave me alone. Stay out of this.

It's all a lie! Daniel's lying!

-What did you say about my dad?
-Stop it, Axel!

AXEL: Don't worry. Javier.

-LILA: Javier, what are you doing?
-AXEL: Lila, stay out of it! (laughs)

LILA: (continues to yell)
Javier! Javier! No!

You're such a jerk!
Pablo, go home.

Actually, you're not the stupid one. I am.

SABRINA: Stop, Lila! Wait!

-Leave her. Let's go.
-SABRINA: Lila!

SANTIAGO:
Eric. Eric. Eric, please...

-Leave me alone. Go with your friends.
-They're your friends too!

I don't understand why you shove us aside
for people you don't even know.

I've known Eric Dalaras
since I was seven.

If you were real friends, you wouldn't
force me to think like you.

Your problem is you don't want
to look bad to anyone.

Lila the perfect one doesn't get involved.

You're afraid to call things out
as they are.

Why did you say that about Eric
in front of Axel?

Look at the problems you've caused.

What did you want me to do?
Lie for you?

We're not your parents.
You can't lie to us.

I'm honest, not like you,
insincere with everyone.

(chuckles) Go ahead, run away. Perfect.
Keep solving problems that way.

At some point,
you're going to have to face them!

(loud growling)

(music bellows)

Is there anything we can do for you?

(heavy rock music plays in headphones)

(music muffles)

-Did you say something?
-It's a lie.

-What's a lie?
-Everything.

(ominous music plays)

Sabrina!

-(gurgling, screeching)
-(music bellows loudly)

SABRINA: (screaming and panting)

(loud growling)

(screaming continues)

(panting and whimpering)

TEMPLE OF MONSTERS
