Man: International arrivals,

please proceed directly
to passport control.

All international
arrivals should

proceed directly
to passport control.

Attention, passengers,

please do not leave
your luggage unattended.

Unattended luggage is
subject to collection

and search by airport police.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Hand, please.

Gary Lester.

What's the nature of your visit?

Um... visiting a friend.

You traveling alone?

Uh, yes. Alone.

Nothing to declare?

No... sir.

Nothing.

Khartoum to Atlanta.

What's that... 19
hours, give or take?

You must be running on fumes.

What were you doing in Sudan?

Uh... just hanging out.

You know...

Tourist stuff.

Yeah, fascinating.

Tell me about the bottle.

Um, it's-it's an antique.

It's very precious.

Oh, please.

Don't touch it.

Yeah, the residue test
didn't turn up nothing.

But here's the
wrinkle, Mr. Lester.

This ain't my first rodeo.

Look, I'm warning you, man,

this is not a game.

Don't open the bottle.

Please... please.

The hell?

Zed:
You were right about the park.

This closeness to nature,

the energy, the people.

Yeah.

My senses, they feel heightened.

It's-it's like a...

A drug?

I wouldn't know.

Seriously?

You've never dabbled?

Seriously.

You try having
visions like mine,

and see if you're still
interested in dabbling.

I need more control, not less.

Huh.

Well, sometimes control
is about letting go.

Psychic energy is all around us.

It's like a network.

You have the ability
to travel that network.

But you have to lower
your walls first.

And then you'll be able to see

how far you can really go.

I see coins.

They're falling all around us.

It's so beautiful!

Constantine:
Pennies from heaven?

Subtle as a serpent.

People have their
own unique markers

for when celestial
beings are close by.

She's, uh, rather
traditional, it seems.

How's she doing?
You think she can help us?

Well, she's more than
handled herself this far.

Manny: You're putting a lot
of time and effort into her.

Let's hope it's not wasted.

Wouldn't want to go
down that road again.

Well, she's as tough as
they come, this one.

And it's just until
we can sort out

this, uh, rising
darkness nonsense.

Then she's free to go
on her own merry way.

Unless you scare her off before.

Not everybody's cut out
to do what you do.

And not everybody has
the stomach to watch you do it.

Well, then I'll have
to go it alone.

Like I always have.

Now, you gonna make me guess?

Or are you gonna tell me
what's going on?

I know something is.

Why else would you be here?

I'm not.

Zed: Where's chas?

Constantine: I told him
to fix that cab of his.

Figured we'd work
on your training today.

So, how am I doing?

You're showing flashes
of precognition,

retrocognition,

clairtangence.
You're a real bitsa.

Come again?

Uh, a bitsa, you know?

You've got bits of
everything in you.

Hold up.

A break-in.

Pretty clumsy one, too.

You might want to stay out here.

The intruder...
Whoever or whatever it is...

Will still be in there.

How do you know that?

Oi' Jasper went
to a lot of trouble

to safeguard everything
contained in these walls.

I almost feel sorry
for whatever's inside.

Seriously disgusting.

Khapra beetles.

One of the most destructive
pests in the world.

I'll assume that's
not a good sign?

It's a pretty safe bet.

Garw John?

John, is that you?

Well, bugger me.

Gary bloody Lester.

I... I knocked,
but nobody was home.

So...

You got yourself caught
in the zero gravity trap?

I don't know
what you call it, man. I...

Oh!

I just want it to stop!

It's been a long time, Gary.

I haven't seen you since, uh...

Newcastle.

Yeah.

I know.

You know, nobody knew
where you went, gaz.

You just vanished.

I had to get away.

Ineeded
to straighten myself out.

Oh, yeah.

Bang-up job you've
done of that, mate.

Gary: Well, with everything
that happened, you know,

with astra...

I just needed to escape, man.

Well, good for you, Gary.

Who's astra?

Well, go on then.

What daft mess have you
gotten yourself into now?

And why is this place

crawling with bugs?

It's bad, John.

It's really bad. But I di...

I didn't mean for it to happen
this way, I swear it.

It started out as a bender.

Uh, then one night turned
into two and then a week.

And then, well,
i-i-i just got lost in it all.

I don't even know how,
but next thing I know,

I'm in Sudan.

And, uh, I'm looking to get on.

But as soon as I saw him...
I knew.

He had these, these containment
markings all over his face.

You know, the power
patterns for binding.

Some bastard had trapped
a demon in him.

I knew what I had to do.

This was my chance
to make up for newcastle.

This was my chance

to atone.

It was like
an irresistible passion

just seized me.

It wasn't
that I wanted to do it.

I needed to.

You should've seen me, John.

You really should've seen me.

I did it, John.

I trapped a demon in a bottle.

Where's the bottle now?

Hey!

What's your problem, man?!

Hey!

Man: What's going on here?!

Hey! What do you think
you're doing...?

Hey!

Man: Someone get
security! This guy's crazy!

Hey! Hey! What are you doing?!

It looks like the star of David.

No, this is the seal of Solomon.

And this is the taba'at shlomo.

Also known as the
ring of Solomon.

It was passed down to Solomon

directly from heaven
to trap genies.

So, you're gonna put

Gary's genie back in the bottle?

The taba'at shlomo has
strong containment magic.

It's perfect for preparing

any demon binding vessel.

Should be sufficient

to clean up that tosser's mess.

You know, he's lucky
to have you as a friend.

He's all right.

He's just bloody hopeless.

Nobody's hopeless.

I wish that were true.

His old man used
to have a car dealership

and more money than
he could count.

So, Gary always had
everything he ever wanted.

Gary was good for cash and...

Well, that's about it.

We had a bit of a crew that used
to run together back then.

Gary was the only one
with a car.

So, you used him.

That depends on your
perspective, doesn't it?

Maybe he used us,

bought our friendship.

If there was one thing Gary knew
how to do, it was use.

Back in the day, he used
to love to get high.

Just the party stuff,
nothing hard.

But it seems that
after newcastle,

he's graduated
to full-blown junkie.

You want to tell me
about newcastle?

It's a town
in the north of england.

Horrible weather

and even worse football team.

You don't end up like Gary
over bad weather.

Well, that's just him, isn't it?

Gary's had more opportunities
handed to him in his life

than I've had hot dinners.

And he's pissed them all away.

Gary's is a life wasted.

B'hoah shlomoh,
kvosh et hahosheh.

All done.

Now all we got to do is
find the bastard demon.

J'j'

- How come she gets whatever she wants?
- Shh.

She's over there!

Ma'am, you cannot be doing that!

I'm hungry!

I need help!

Female news anchor: It is not
yet known whether the virus is

transmitted via these insects
or person to person.

There is, however, little doubt

that this outbreak could
mushroom, and rapidly...

The gift that keeps on
giving, eh, gaz?

Suggest that the victims
were gorging on food

just prior
to their sudden deaths.

Diagnostic tests are underway
on these Vic...

Sounds like a hunger demon.

Nasty mindless bastards
with no thought

other than to consume to excess.

Sound familiar?

I'm clean now, John,

and it's gonna stay
that way, I swear.

Oh, leave it out, gaz,
I don't have the time.

That thing's gonna eat its way
through the heart of the city,

one poor wretch at a time,
unless I stop it.

I'm coming with you.

Are you taking the piss?

It's my responsibility.

Forget it.

You're the last person I
want by my side on this.

On anything.

Do us a favor, will you?

Watch over him.

John.

John.

You know, I don't see
a lot of people

lining up to lend you a hand.

Maybe you should
accept his help.

People can change, you know?

Bollocks.

We are who we are.

Eventually.

There he goes again.

Charging head first
into the face of danger.

Is that what happened
at newcastle?

John doesn't seem to want
to talk about it.

Too much pain.

Same reason I got
into the junk...

Try to forget.

Thing like that...

You don't ever forget.

Back then, we all thought
John was the duck's nuts.

I mean, some of the crew were
interested in the occult,

but most of us just wanted
to be around him.

So when he started talking
about this trip to newcastle,

we all jumped at the chance.

Road trip, some black magic
with the John constantine.

Who could say no?

But then there was this girl.

She was a daughter
of one of John's friends.

She was possessed.

Nobody knew what to do,
how to save her.

John?

He had a plan.

Astra?

I heard you mention
that name before.

What happened to her?

Hey, man.

I'm sure you did what you could.

You cared enough to try,
and that's what counts.

Gary!

Excuse me.

You mind if I ask you
a few questions?

I already told everybody...
We didn't see anything.

Look, I know
what you're thinking.

If I tell this guy what I saw,

he's gonna think
I'm crazy, right?

Look, we just want to go home.

Please.

Two minutes, that's all I need.

There were bugs.

Lots of bugs.

Is that so?

When the woman died,

they just came up out of her,
like a swarm.

I mean, most people
had run off by then,

but we were still there.

What happened to them
after they left the woman?

Well, that's where
it gets real crazy

because they just
flew into a swarm

and then there was
this guy, this, uh...

A meat delivery guy,

and they all just flew
right into him.

You happen to catch
the name of the company

the delivery guy worked for?

There was a pig and a cow
dancing on his shirt.

Dancing, were they?

Wow, that's something
I'd like to see.

Thanks a lot.

You wouldn't be laughing if you
knew what was in store for you.

There anyone in here?

J'j'

Ah, this gets more fun
by the second.

Anyone in here still alive?

Preferably not possessed
and feeling peckish?

Hello.

Uh, Jo.

Well, we can chat later,

but right now I'm addressing
the entity inside you.

Melech eloheem...

Haboreh vehayotzer
pokehz ahleyhah.

Shmah nah yeshoot...

Bollocks.

How the bloody hell

did a scuzzy little toe rag
like you manage

to capture a thing like that?

What happened?

You okay?

Are you okay, more like?

I'm fine.

You find it, the demon?

You sure know how
to pick them, Gary.

May be the rising
darkness, but, uh,

it's stronger than any hunger
demon I've ever encountered.

I've trapped it for now,

but it'll be loose again
soon enough.

We need to identify it
with absolute certainty

to put it down for good.

You know, maybe...

Maybe this will help.

There's no "maybe"
about it, luv.

If they're authentic.

Well, earlier today,

Gary and I, we touched,

and I experienced a...

A psychic transference.

You, uh...

Touched?

No. No, no, not like that.

I mean, we only touched
for, like, a second.

But the connection...

It wasn't like
I was just in his head,

'cause it was deeper than that.

I felt his pain

and his guilt

and his addiction.

And after...

His withdrawal symptoms.

You got all the lows
and none of the highs.

Rough deal, I'd say.

It's probably best

if you two kids keep
your hands to yourself.

For now.

All right?

I'm off to see a man
about a dog.

Or, rather, a shaman
about a bloody demon.

J'j'

not hungry?

Not particularly, mate.

I expected you sooner.

The goat entrails
indicated yesterday

as your time of arrival.

Well, don't believe
everything you read, nommo.

Check out today's inquirer,
and they'll have you

believing a virus
is sweeping the city.

But you know better.

Mm.

Not about most
things, but, uh...

Afraid it's less a case of

runny nose,

more a case
of nasty hunger demon.

The problem's contained
for the moment,

but I need answers
to finish it off.

We've traced it back
as far as Sudan,

but we're not sure
if that's where it originated.

Sudan? Mmm.

Khartoum.

Used to call this poor sod home

before it flew the Coop.

Demon you seek
is called mnemoth.

How do we stop it?

I don't know.

There's a way for us
to discover it together,

but it requires some... travel.

So, by "travel,"
you mean "trip."

A shared vision.

I can guide you through it,

but you need to see it

the way I do, through my eyes.

It's been a while since
I've taken any psychedelics.

Most of them make me puke
these days.

This isn't most psychedelics.

The mist may well be

the most powerful
drug in the world.

Once taken, its effects
last forever.

Well, you know me...

I'm game for a laugh,

but forever seems
a bit excessive, no?

The nectar of nhialic.

A natural counteragent.

Oh... bloody hell.

That is heinous.

An acquired taste, certainly.

So...

If we're tripping balls,

how do we know
to take the nectar?

Call it a hunch, but, uh...

I think this might be working.

Nommo: Mnemoth
has always been with us.

Through all the famines,

the hunger of
the starving masses

gave the spirit strength.

Nothing could satisfy
the demon's appetite.

After consuming a body,

it moved on to the next,

leaving a growing
trail of death.

The shaman couldn't sit by

and watch his people starve.

He could see what
no one else could.

This was the evil work
of a dark spirit.

He faced

an impossible choice,

for they were all his children.

There was only one way
to stop it.

The demon was invited
to enter the boy

whom the shaman offered
as a sacrifice.

The sacred kusa knife.

Used for the scarification.

Passed down by
generations of shaman,

centuries of powerful magic
contained within.

The tongue had to be removed

so the shaman could not be
cursed for what he did.

The pattern...

Had to be precise.

Mnemoth could not resist
the offering.

Upon entering the boy,

it began consuming him,

but as the demon was now
trapped by the containment

markings, the shaman left,

knowing it would ultimately

consume the boy and itself.

Constantine: Decent plan.

Shame it didn't stick.

I mean...

What are the odds
the kid lands himself

in the one bloody alley

that Gary Lester stumbles into?

Take it slowly, my friend.

Ah, don't worry, mate.

It's not my first disco.

So, the headline here is, uh...

I'm gonna need one of
those fancy blades, right?

The sacred kusa.

Good luck finding one
in this town.

Well, we wouldn't want to make
things easy, now, would we?

I'm sorry, I just...

Feel... sort of trapped in here.

Useless.

Just concentrate
on feeling better.

John can handle the rest.

Come on, Gary.

There's nothing for you to do.

I beat that demon once.

I can do it again.

No.

No.

I didn't want to do this,

but you didn't give me a choice.

It's my fault that
thing's out there.

It's my responsibility
to stop it.

Sorry.

Zed? Gary?

What'd I tell you two

about keeping your hands
to yourselves?

You're not as funny
as you think.

Oh, no, no, no, no.
Take it easy.

Take it easy.

What happened?

Bastard!

He just...

He just wants to help.

He's so racked with guilt

that he's going after
the demon himself.

Told you that, did he?

Yes, he did.

And he meant it.
'Cause I felt it.

That's not what's happening,
trust me.

Why do you always want to see
the worst in people?

I see the truth.

Gary's hopelessly
addicted to heroin.

And let me give you
a little tip about addicts:

Between thought and action
comes temptation.

Always.

Ooh, nice one, lads.

Think I just heard a rib crack.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

Don't stop on my account.

In fact, maybe I can help.

I'm guessing that this
little misunderstanding

has something to do with the
purchase of narcotics, correct?

Best high you'll ever have.

On my life.

Must be getting soft.

Should've let those two
keep going on you.

Get you out of my hair

for good.

So why didn't you?

You are a massive pain
in the arse, Gary Lester.

But you're still my mate.

More's the pity.

Friends don't betray each other.

I betrayed you.

I betrayed her.

Oh, don't worry about zed.

She's a tough bird, that one.

I'm talking about astra.

There's something
I need to tell you, John.

About newcastle.

Gaz, you don't...

Please.

I need to say this.

I was high.

Been smoking all day.

By the time
the séance started...

I was well caned.

And then, when...

Everything started
going pear-shaped...

I hid.

Under a bed in a room upstairs.

Her screams...

I can still hear them, John.

She was being dragged to hell.

I just laid there in
me own stinkin' piss,

closed me eyes,
covered me ears...

And when it was all done...

I ran.

John?

Say something, please.

Wasn't your fault, mate.

Should've never gotten
you all involved.

You, especially.

Because I'm a coward.

Because it's not your world.

Never was and I knew it.

And I knew you were high.

We all did.

The thing is, gaz...

I don't blame you.

I never did.

You had every right
to be afraid.

And you know
what I always say, gaz?

Everyone has
the capacity to change.

I've never heard
you say that before.

Exactly.

Woman: We're
live outside the fox theater

in mid-town Atlanta,
which is now on lockdown,

following reports
of another virus outbreak.

Get it in you, mate.

We've got a demon to catch.

Together.

Nothing too elaborate.

Just a simple distraction.

Then what?

Then you break in
and steal the bloody kusa knife.

It's not rocket surgery.

Me?

Are you sure?

All the faith in
the world, old son.

Now, you might
want to stand back.

You sure you really want
to go through with this?

It's just a bit of glass.

It's easy to replace.

That's not
what I'm talking about.

And you know it.

I can do this.

Right.

I'm off then.

You there! Stop!

Stop where you are!

Very nice.

And now let's see a plié.

Oh, I think I saw that left heel

wobble a bit, otherwise perfect.

Now, uh... express yourself.

How long's he gonna
be under for?

Until the music stops.

The alarm.

How'd you fare?

Atta boy.

I knew I could count on you.

Come on.

Watch that left heel.

Oh, sorry.

Impressive.

Should be.

Learned from the best.

By the look on that bloke,
time's not on our side.

The demon will be out of him,

looking for his
next victim soon.

We need to get started.

So, what's the plan then?

This demon requires a sacrifice.

That's what I learned
from the shaman.

No cage, bottle
or vessel can hold it.

Only a body.

Alive, human...

Body.

Mine.

We could draw straws.

It was your plan all
along, wasn't it?

That's why it's
just you and me here.

You sneaky bastard.

My chance...

To finally make
my life mean something.

It won't be quick.

Could take days of sheer agony

before you die.

And there's no going back.

Do you understand?

There's no better way to go out.

A mage.

Like John constantine.

I'm proud of you, gaz.

Truly.

Let's do this.

Well done there, mate!

Not long now.

He's coming around.

We need to get him inside
and into a secure room.

You put the demon inside of him?

There was no other way.

You're sacrificing him, you're
sacrificing your friend's life.

It was his choice.
And it was a brave one.

You need to respect that.

You manipulated him.

You tricked him into it.

That demon was
one of the most powerful

and malevolent entities
I've ever come across.

What we did saved
countless lives!

I don't care!

Gary loved you,
and you betrayed him!

All he cared about
was to make you proud.

And for what, John, huh?

He wanted to be just like you.
Thank god he's not!

He came to me!

You think I wanted this?

Any of it?

I told you this would happen.

People around me die.

If you can't handle it, then go.

Which room
do you want to put him in?

Downstairs.

End of the hallway.
