01x03 - Sunday – The Ghost

[bunniefuu]

My son was m*rder*d near here.

There was this time after,
I'd suddenly be convinced

that everyone was lying.

Episodic psychosis they call it.

- That is just grief. - Is it?

Because I don't know.

What is it these people believe?

The ancient Celts believed
Osea was the soul of the world.

You wanna know more about it,
you should talk to Mimir.

Mimir? You said Mimir?

Wait, why? Do you know him?

Why do you have this?

Did you see my son?

What did we do to you?

He was looking
into my son's death,

and Epona's trying
to hang herself

in the exact spot where
Nathan was found.

They're connected.

Sam, you need to come with us.

He wants you dead
and he means it.

We need to get
you away from here.

Take these things in Your name.

Take this man in Your name.

- - Shh...

Baby, baby, baby,
no! No, no, no, no!

He is tripping hard.

Whoa!

- Oh... -

Oh Lord,
give Osea the Father it needs.

Bring us the true Father.
Give us the true Father...

Join me... with him.

And let this put the blood

of the land that has
redeemed him inside him.

And on this bread...

Oh!

Does anyone else
know you took him?

- - Of course
they f*cking don't.

That's why we need to end him, now.

No.

We're going a different way.

What'd
I bring him here for then?

What the f*ck are
you gonna do with him?

Save him!

We're going to save him.

Take him downstairs.

Keep him safe!

Safe, eh? We'll see.

Ah!

Mimir?

Can you help me?

- Where am I?
- In the Big House.

They f*cking did things to me.

Like...

Like a ceremony. They
put blood and wine on me.

You were baptized in Esus' name.

What are you talking about?

The Celts believed Osea
was the soul of the world.

It needed a father to
shepherd it through the dark.

Charrington was that father,

then his son was.

But his son decided
he didn't want this life

for his own boy, and they fled.

Why are you telling me all this?

His brother took over.

But as the brother
comes closer to death,

with no male heir,

the island declines,
and so does the world.

What the f*ck does all
this got to do with me?

Your grandfather

told you he was
stationed on Osea,

yes?

He was not.

He was born here.

He was the son of
the son of Charrington.

The father who fled.

He didn't want this for his son,

and they did not
want it for you.

You are the rightful father of Osea,
Sam.

Can you feel it coming?

The darkness.

...Who the
f*ck put you in here, eh?!

I... I was left here.

I said nothing to him!

- Shh... -

They may wanna save you,
but I f*cking don't.

sh*t.

Make a sound I don't like...

...f*cking
split this island in two, you have.

I don't give a
sh*t who your father was.

This ends now, boy.

Ah!

Ah!

Don't!

No...

Ah!

It's me! I got you!

I got you!

Larry... he's
trying to k*ll me...

He had weights to sink my body.

I need to get off this island.

What is that?

Where...

- Where did you find that?
- Where do you think I found it?

It was hidden under the sink in our room,
Sam.

It's 40,000 pounds.

This is the money
you said was stolen.

- I didn't know...
- It's the money

I watched you accuse
another man of taking!

Is this an episode?

Is that what you said?
Ep-ep-episodic psychosis?

- No, no, no. It's-I-I...
- Would you even know if it was?

I mean, people chasing you?

What, trying to k*ll you?

It-it... No, it...

It's not an episode.

- It's not an episode!
- How do you know it's not?!

Oh, Jesus Christ.

I need you...

to help me get off Osea.

- Did you find her?
- I found her. She's coming.

She wanted to tell
her husband first.

- Why?
- To warn him about Larry.

She seemed scared.

I'm sorry you got
mixed up in all this.

I just wanna get
home with my girls.

That's all I want.

What was he like? Your son.

He was a handful, actually.

He had a bit of a problem
with right and wrong.

I remember Cas was worried.

'Cause he got
into a cruel phase,

torturing insects and so on.

He was just being a kid.
He could be so loving.

Yeah.

Yeah, he was tricky.

I keep finding these
things all over the island.

- Real ones, too.
- In some cultures, crickets are a sign

of rains and flooding.

How can anybody
believe this stuff?

Doesn't matter
how. It's how much.

I grew up in a
religious community.

It was almost like a cult,

and believe me,
if our pastor said the end was nigh,

we started buying tin cans
and prepping our shelters.

For them, it's not belief.

It's immutable f*cking fact.

Oh, and...

death.

Crickets are also
a sign of death.

Oh, flip.

Flippin' hell. This is bad.

- This is really flippin' bad.
- Calm the f*ck down, f*ck.

- Can you get us out of here?
- Yeah, of course.

Of course we can. We can,
can't we, love?

That's what I was
trying to do last night.

- I was gonna lock him in the chapel...
- Lock him in?

Well,
it's being rewired. It's...

a death trap. No
one will go inside.

I was gonna hide him
in there until dawn...

What about a
boat? You said Tomo...

Why does Larry want me dead?

Sam,

you were saying
things of the girl's father.

- People don't take to that.
- No, no, it's not that.

And you had a
closeness with her.

- I'm not saying it was impropriety. Not for one...
- It's not that.

He wasn't angry. He
just wanted me gone.

That f*cking ceremony...

Preacher and the
wine and the meat.

Tell him. Tell him everything.

The man in the white suit,
the Father?

Well, he can't die,
God bless him.

Not till he's sure
he can pass it on.

Osea needs a true father, Sam.

Me. You're talking about me.

The day you
lost your boy on the mainland,

you come to meet someone, right?

How do you know that?

It was him, the Father.

Somehow, he found you. He
was gonna tell you everything.

We only found out that very
day. We didn't even know, did we?

- People were furious.
- He's a f*cking idiot.

- Now, love...
- He's a f*cking moron.

He was never supposed
to sit in that role.

Ever since he took over,
Osea's decayed.

See, we'd searched for years.

And there you suddenly
were that very day.

And we panicked.

But there you were,

with your son.

What about my son?

There were two ideas.

One was to come, talk to you,

ask you to take
your rightful place.

But how do you tell a grown
man something like that?

So, there was a second idea...

Which was to take your boy.

Take my son?

The wrong man was Father.

We were in decline.
The world was in decline.

Your son was a direct
descendant of Charrington himself!

...So, a person
was spoken to to see if, in theory,

he could or would take your boy.

He does it,

and he gets a place
here for his family.

Imagine what that is
for those that believe.

To live in the world's soul.

The man we spoke to...

well,
he was confused. He wasn't all there.

Who did you speak to?

Goltan.

We spoke to Goltan.

He was never meant
to hurt your boy.

- Whose idea...
- He was just confused.

He weren't supposed
to get violent.

Whose idea was
it to take my son?

- Mine. -

And I've regretted it with
every single breath since.

- Your idea. It was your f*cking idea?
- Is it now?

Is now the time that
you're gonna give in

to the rage inside you, Sam?

I want you to listen to me.

All of this,

everything you believe in,
is f*cking nonsense.

It's magic and pixies,

and fake gods.

- It's not fake. Don't say fake.
- It cost my son his life.

My son is dead because
of your f*cking garbage.

This sh*t that you believe in.

I wanna get off this island.

I would rather
slit my own throat

than come back here
for one more minute.

Okay.

You're right. I'm sorry.

Time to get you off the island.

Listen, love...

Don't you think
he's lost enough?

It's time we paid for our sin.

Mr. - Sam,

Osea is the world's
beating heart.

- It needs its father.
- Where's Epona?

We don't know. She's missin'.

You think I'm leaving that
child alone here with you?

We don't know
where she is. They're looking for her.

We're gonna head east,
that's where Tomo is,

- and we're gonna stay quiet.
- It's just that

you walked in on Epona
at exactly the right moment.

It means something,
Sam, it has to...

Shut your f*cking
f*ck and move your f*cking feet.

I was just speaking, that's all.

I hope you know
what you're doing.

Spread out!

What are they doing?

They're looking for him.

All Osea is getting
dragged into this now.

You two cross over,

and then we'll follow.

Alright.

- Come on then. - Where?

Well, that prick there,

trust him with my life,
but not with this.

What is it?

Those tunnels,
do you... Do you see anything?

No, nothing.

Maybe not then.

Maybe I'm just...

Well, what if you're not?

You stay here.

I'll head up,
see if it's clear, and...

if it is,
then I'll come back and we'll head on.

If there are people there,
what about you?

- I'll be fine. - Will you?

What, and you f*cking will?

Stay here. Don't go anywhere,
okay?

Hello?

Oh!

Move away from that child.

I said move, now.

It... I...

It wasn't me.

I didn't... I didn't do it.

Of course you didn't.

She did.

What?

She offered herself to
the gods in those woods.

To heal our sin.

Hanged herself to heal Osea.

And the gods saw it,

and they brought you to us.

You didn't wanna stay.

I always knew she was incredible,
but...

I never knew she
had this in her.

The blade, the position...

She must've lay
here alone all night,

bleeding out under that sheet.

It's ancient, this.

She did it because
I wouldn't stay?

She wanted you to be Father,
Sam.

Just like they all do.

- Like I did. - Ah...

But I know now,
after what you said back there,

it's not gonna be possible.

Larry was right.

You're not the answer.
You're the problem.

And there can
only be one Father.

So, what?

You're gonna k*ll me?

And your holy f*cking

succession is restored.

You get your oysters back,
and the world is healed,

and that old man
becomes some sort of god?

Him? f*ck no. He's useless.

Who then?!

Nathan.

Is my son alive?

You've seen him,
haven't you, Sam?

You knew. Come on, you knew.

No, no,
there was a body. I-I-I...

It was Epona's brother.

Same age as your lad.

Mimir saw to the paperwork.

You can die happy, Sam.

Your son's alive.

Can I see him?

No. It's too late for that.

I need you to move
away from her.

We mustn't sully what she did.

- - Move!

You didn't want
the others to know.

They still think
you can lead us.

Scared of what they'll do?

My problem, not yours.

Ah.

I wanna see him.

Keep moving, Sam.

I need to know more about him.

He's fine.

He's a good lad. He's happy.

When things get better,

the others will understand.

And they'll forgive.

If the soul of
the world is sick,

then so is the world.

I mean,

Christ, just look at it.

We on this island

bear such responsibility.

But we f*cked up.

What you and I do here today

will help billions.

I wanna see him.

Keep moving, Sam.

I wanna see him.

- I said keep moving.
- I need to see him!

f*ck, f*ck!

Aday? Aday!

Oh, my God!

Yeah, I know! I'm here!

Please help me!

I'm on an island. Osea Island...

Aday!

Hello?

- Aday? -

- - Ah!

Ah!

My phone!

Don't come
near me. I will k*ll you.

I will f*cking k*ll you!

He's in there, isn't he?

I'm taking the boy
with me. I'm not...

I'm not leaving without him.

Tomo's boat is out waitin'.

Take it to the mainland.

Call the police.

Can't leave him here on his own.

He won't be on his own.

He'll be with me.

Get the police. Now.

- Oh God!
- Sam, it's me!

Oh Jess...

Oh my God!

What happened?

I can't hear...

Mr. Martin, where is he?

He spoke to Tomo,
and then he heard a shot.

He told me to wait here.

Where's the boat?

We need to go.

Where are the Martins?

They had to go back!

There was a shot fired!

- They should be here!
- They...

They said you'd take us!

- They should be here.
- They're waiting!

Around the corner!
They said you'd know!

Around the... the rocks!

He means the headland!

I know what he means.

The tide's low.

Shortest way is west. If
it's too shallow for that,

we'll go north and circle round.

There's channels to the mainland there.

We have to be careful once
we get pushed back on the flats.

Jess, can you drive the boat?

- What are you doing, Sam?
- Can you drive this f*cking boat?!

I think so, yeah!

- You, off. - Sam, he's with us!

He's not! No! None of
them are with us! Get off.

- Get off the boat! - Hey...

You belong here, Sam...

Stay...

- Or the darkness inside you...
- Get off!

Go! Go!

Sam! -

Sam!

Not good at this.

There are mudflats everywhere.

I think we need to go by
the pier and then head out,

through the channels, he said.

You okay?

What?

He's alive and
he's on this island.

He's in that house,
that big house.

What do you
mean? Goltan didn't...?

They kept him,
Jess. They kept him here.

sh*t. The tide's pulling!

- What? - I think it's okay.

- It's just bringing us close.
- There's people over there.

What are they doing?

What's happening?

- - No...

We're getting
caught on the flats!

I'm pulling full throttle!

That's it!

Go! Go!

Jess...

The place I'm from...

it's like this.

My husband, he knows the people
here and they're watching me.

I need to leave.

Please.

My girls are...

all that matter to me,
and you know that.

I told you that, remember?

Jess, please...

Sit.

Sit now.

This island's been divided
about what to do ever since you came.

Ever since we knew of your existence,
in fact.

It's quite thrown us. But...

we're all in agreement now.

The dark is here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Are you ready, Sam?

Sam?

Are you ready for
what happens next?

The ancient Celts believed

that Osea was the
soul of the world.

If Osea's sick,

the whole planet's sick.

We are gonna have ourselves an adventure,
right?

Just us three.

This holiday's like a new start.

This place,

why's it so important to you?

My girls have
been through a lot.

I want them to feel good.

Then leave.

What's going on?

You're
in exactly the right place,

and at exactly the right time.

Everyone here's acting like
something bad's gonna happen.

Mom?

We've had our customs for years.

I'm not apologizing for 'em.

Things are out of balance.

I need your help, Ellie.

We need to leave this place.

Osea impacts the whole world.

Things are
going to be different now.

What have we done?
