All language subtitles for QL S01E07

Dr. Ben Song
risked everything

when he used
the Quantum Leap Accelerator

to travel back in time.

Now our team's working
to find out why.

As he leaps between bodies
with no memory of who he is,

he still has one hope--

that his next leap...

takes him back...

to the place
and people he calls home.

Trick or treat.

Father Davenport, thank God.

I'm afraid it's gotten worse.

Please, come in.

Thank you for traveling
all the way from Baltimore.

We tried a local priest, but...

he didn't have your reputation.

I'm Lola, Daisy's mother.

Our maid, Magda.

Everyone else is in the parlor.

Boo.

Mm.

Happy Halloween.

Nice costume.

This way, please, Father.

OK.

Not a costume.

Welcome.

Charles, Daisy's father.

And this is my brother, Percival.

Percy's fine.

Only Aunt Tessa
calls me Percival.

Put that drink down, Percival.

For goodness' sake.

You are in the presence
of a man of faith.

Contessa Gray.

Welcome to my home.

I'm sorry you have
to visit it under such

unfavorable circumstances.
- Mm.

Ziggy says that there
is an 89% chance that

you are here to perform
an exorcism.

What?

That cannot be right.

Sorry?

What is the condition
of the afflicted?

Probably best you see
for yourself.

Before I begin,
it's been a long journey.

Do you have a restroom--

- Water closet.
- Water closet I can use?

Exorcism?

Yes. Hey,
keep your voice down.

All right,
in the original history,

Father James Davenport attempted

an exorcism on Daisy Gray.

After what
"The Covington Gazette"

described as a "holy battle,"
the priest failed.

Daisy died six minutes
after midnight.

That's what you're
here to change.

But exorcisms aren't real.

And even if they were,
I'm not religious.

I don't believe in possession.

Ben, you are
literally possessing

that guy's body right now.

OK.

Fair point.

Look, I don't know if
the demon is real or not.

But what I do know
is that the machine

sent you here for a reason.

So let's just go
through the motions

until we figure out why.

- Fine.
- Thank you.

But spoiler alert,
the demon's not real.

Mm-mm-mm.

It started three weeks ago.

She began to speak in riddles.

Her strength has doubled, unnaturally.

She can't remember things
she's said or done.

What's that smell?

It's the rotting stench
of the demon.

Ready?

She won't let Magda
clean that off.

We tried restraining
her with rope,

but she chewed
right through it.

Daisy did this?

No.

It was the demon.

Mother?

It's all right, honey.

Father Davenport is here now.

It's an angel sent here
to save me.

How is this gonna go?

Is--

is a question
you may have.

Three steps.

Step one--

You command the demon
to reveal itself.

I command the demon
to reveal itself.

The exorcist
and the demon fight

for the soul of the possessed.

The exorcist, that's me,
and the demon, she,

fight for the soul
of the possessed.

And three--

The demon leaves,
if the exorcist wins.

The last priest didn't make
it past the first step.

I'll wait downstairs.

Now what?

Step one.

Try the book.

Hey, at least you get to
use your high school Latin.

It's bookmarked. How kind.

- Uh...
- What just happened?

Not sure.

Some sort of glitch.

Just keep going.

You're doing great.

Wait. No. Um--

What the--

Oh, hell no.

Hey, there is
some sort of glitch.

The system just kicked me out.

Uh, Ian?

Over here.

Hey, I--

are you wearing cat ears?

What? I--I keep them
in my desk,

in case of e-meow-gencies.

OK.

Well, speaking of emergencies,

Ben is stuck in 1934,
mid-exorcism, alone.

Yeah.
Something is interfering

with the signal
in the imaging chamber.

I mean, we can still track
his location and his vitals.

I just can't hear or see him
for some reason.

- Why?
- I can only speculate,

but maybe it was the demon.

- Ian.
- What? What?

Something supernatural
is not entirely impossible.

Sam Beckett believed
that God was guiding

the Quantum Accelerator.

So maybe a demon really
is trying to interfere.

OK. Well, Ben has six hours

until Daisy dies.

How long until we get
this thing back online?

I mean, I don't even
understand what's happening.

So just let me run
some diagnostics

and then we'll go from there.

Addison?

Father, the doctor's here.

It's a great time
for the doctor to come in.

You can--he may enter.

Dr. Felix Watts.

I'd like to administer
a sedative.

Yes, please.

What have you got for me?

Oh, for her.

Yes. Absolutely.

Good call.

So I take it you're
not a believer?

The patient is suffering,
and the family's

denying her medical treatment

because of their
religious misgivings.

- Yeah.
- You're a part of the problem.

No offense.

None taken.

I would love to find
a rational explanation

for what's happening here.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Well, the rational
explanation is that this

is an illness of the mind.

She needs cutting-edge
medical intervention,

electroshock therapy,
for instance,

or perhaps a lobotomy.

Will you let me
undo her bindings,

let her sleep in comfort?

Is that safe?

There's no demon here,
father, only a girl of 18.

She couldn't do much
even if she wanted to.

Joan of Arc was
only 17 when she led

the French army to victory.

There's a Cathedral in France,
in Orleans,

where Joan of Arc went
to pray before battle.

Auntie Tessa took me there
when I was little.

Daisy, Dr. Watts believes
there's a logical explanation

to what's happening here.

Don't worry, father.

I know the demon is real.

This is a battle of faith.

When my father lost his job
at the motorcar company

on account of the Depression,
he stopped going to church.

Then my mother stopped,
because we lost our house

and had to move in
with Auntie Tessa.

Mother says this house
gives her the creeps.

I can't disagree
with her there.

Hmm.

That's how it started,
about three weeks ago,

just after my 18th birthday.

The wallpaper moved.

I began to see terrible things.

My father said God turned
his back on us.

He was wrong.

God sent an angel
to help Joan win her battle.

And God sent you to help me.

The Book of Revelation says,

"Fear none of those things
which thou shalt suffer.

Be thou faithful unto death."

And Father, I intend
to be faithful unto death.

How is she?

Sleeping.

She's a young woman
of remarkable faith.

She's a fighter.

Reminds me of someone
I used to know.

She looks just like you.

Inherited my sense
of conviction too.

Thank you, Father.
- For what? I--

For coming here.

You are the answer
to our prayers.

Something to
lighten the mood?

Can I tempt you?

I better not.
Long night ahead.

You know what that
does to your liver?

I'm more concerned
for my soul than my liver.

I'll leave this here just
in case you change your mind.

Just something I used
to sing to Daisy

when she cried as a baby.

It's lovely.

You have a nice voice.

Oh, I trained a little
when I was Daisy's age.

Wanted to go to Hollywood,
be the next Gloria Swanson.

But then, I got pregnant
with Daisy.

Do you think it's my fault?

- What?
- The demon.

We were young
when I got pregnant.

Charles and I
weren't married yet.

Is it--

is it punishment?

18 years and 9 months
seems a little long

for God to wait before
doling out punishment.

It's locked.

Open this door!

Mother?

Are you hurt?

Who took off her restraints?

What's all the commotion?

Where's Aunt Tessa?

Dear God.

There must be a rational explanation.

I'm struggling
to conjure one.

Come on.

You're supposed to be
the man of science.

What do you think
happened three weeks ago?

What?

Daisy's symptoms
began three weeks ago,

right after her birthday?

I'm not sure.

It could explain
her symptoms.

If it's an illness
of the mind--

No illness of the mind
could've doubled her strength.

There is no manner in which
Daisy could've lifted

Contessa Gray's body
onto that armoire.

Doctor, are you starting
to believe?

In medical school, we studied
the words of Hippocrates.

"To know is science.

To believe one knows
is ignorance."

I'm afraid this has gone beyond
the realm of what I know.

When I was in school,
I was taught

to examine all the variables
before drawing conclusions.

The Vatican teaches that?

Yes.

I have to consider every
possible explanation.

This family is counting
on me to help them.

Daisy's counting on me.

Let's go, folks.

Move along.

Nothing to see here.

Ah.

Jen says no other departments
are having issues,

that the interference isolated
to the imaging chamber,

which makes no sense.

What was that?

Nothing. I'm just-- I'm--

I'm monitoring Ben's vitals.

He's fine.
Every--everyone's fine.

We're all fine.
- Ian?

OK. So he's freaking out
a little bit.

God.
I feel so useless.

Is there anything else
that we could be doing?

I'm running every single
diagnostic that I can.

I literally have two separate
teams trying to mount

two different workarounds.
- But?

But you might wanna
start preparing yourself

for the possibility
that you won't get

back in there Before 12:06.

Now, in--in the meantime,
I figured that Reddit might

be able to offer us some
insight in what's going on

in Ben's current timeline.

Oh, my God.

Daisy killed Great Aunt Tessa?
- Yeah.

WebCrawlers19 said
that according

to the constable's report,
Contessa Gray was found

dead on top of an armoire.

Now, Daisy was
the only one alone

with her at the time of death.

There is no way that she
could lift up that body.

I gotta get back in there.

You have to figure
this out, Ian.

I'll figure it out.

OK.

I knew you'd come around.

Never been a gin guy.
- Hmm.

Still not.

Hey, what's with all
the encyclopedias?

I sell them, door-to-door.

Charles says it's an
excuse to screw around

with lonely housewives all day,
to which I say,

I'm a salesman
and a public servant.

Hey, what happened
three weeks ago?

I notice Charles didn't
wanna talk about it.

Are you a priest
or a constable?

I need any information
that can help Daisy.

Don't know how it could
help with the exorcism,

but the night
of Daisy's birthday,

Charles and Aunt Tessa got
into an argument about money.

And I won't have you relying
on my inheritance either.

I said I don't
want her money!

See, I'm used to screwing up.

Charles isn't.

He married the pretty girl,
got the good job.

Then, he lost that job.

And let's just say,

lately, he's been wrathful.

So the demon is my fault?

And whose fault is it we
lost our life savings?

Hey.

It was an investment, OK?

Who knew the market
would crash?

You told me it was foolproof.

You lied to get to my money.

And greed is a sin
as much as wrath.

So now the demon
is my fault too?

OK.
All right.

Why don't we just both
take a beat, you know,

say a few Hail Marys?

I beg your pardon.

Daisy is unwell again.

- I'll see to her.
- No.

Mrs. Gray is
requesting you, Father.

She was starting to calm
down after the... incident.

So I gave her dinner,
some soup.

That's all she can stomach.

Then--

Maybe it's best if--

I stood upon
the sand of the sea

and saw a beast rise up,

and upon his head the name
of "blasphemy."

- What?
- And there appeared an angel

unto him from heaven,
strengthening him.

And immediately
there fell from his eyes

as it had been scales.

For we walk by
faith and not by sight.

Daisy, I don't
know what's going on,

but the demon isn't real.

The end
is nigh for you, traveler.

Are you all right, Father?

I heard you cry out.

Get the doctor!

What's happening?

Daisy?

Daisy, are you OK?

Of course you're not.

Are you feeling
all right, Father?

Much better, now that I
found the source of the smell.

Look, demon stench.

Someone's lying.

I just need to figure out
who put this there.

That would be me.

Yes, I put the fish
under Daisy's bed.

To fool us into thinking
the demon is real?

Fool you?

The demon is real.

We call it dybbuk
in my culture.

It's a part
of Jewish tradition.

The fish protects
from the dybbuk.

Daisy's father
would never allow me

to hang that in her room.

So I snuck one in.

Real fish is more potent.

Oh, it's potent all right.

Gives new meaning
to the term "red herring."

So you had nothing to do
with Aunt Tessa's death?

I liked Ms. Contessa.

After the market crash,
she let me keep my job.

She doesn't spend a penny
on herself anymore,

saves her money for charity.

Would anyone else have
any reason to harm her?

No.

She had money.

But she made it very clear
in her new will

that Daisy would
inherit everything

after her 18th birthday.

So Daisy now stands
to inherit

a great deal of wealth.

Daisy would never hurt
her auntie on purpose.

It was the dybbuk, the demon.

I didn't wanna do it.

I never wanted to get married.

- Really?
- Mm.

I mean, I'm sure my parents
loved each other once.

But by the time
they got divorced,

they couldn't even be in
the same room together.

So I made a choice.

That was never
gonna be my life.

And then I met Ben.

Yeah.

Well, what are you gonna do?

He's very lovable.

What if he never
makes it back?

Those leaps are getting
harder and harder.

And he might get stuck in time,

and I'll never see him again.

You know, in quantum physics,

there's this concept that
if you believe in something,

it helps make it true.

At least that's
what Ian told me

when they tried to get me to
make a vision board with them.

Oh, yeah.
I passed on that too.

But I think maybe
they were right.

It's OK to be worried.

It's OK to be confused,

angry sometimes.

But we are gonna
bring Ben back.

I know it.

I see it.

I won't settle
for anything less.

So your advice is
to make a Ben vision board?

My advice is
to not lose hope.

I believe in you.

I believe in us.

We're gonna solve this thing.

Just gotta have a little faith.

Addison.

You there?

It was worth a shot.

I could really use someone
to talk to right now.

I guess you'll have to do.

So...

uh...

I've tried to find
a scientific explanation.

And I can't.

I know it seems crazy,
but I think I might have

to actually try and perform
an exorcism?

But I don't believe in--

I mean, I can read Latin, but...

I'm not a man of faith.

I'm--I'm not.

But you are.

So maybe, just this once,
I put my need

to rationally and logically
explain everything away

and I try and be open
to something

I don't truly understand.

Here we go.

Step one, I command
the demon to reveal itself.

Okay.

Hey, you.

# Somewhere beyond the sea

Addison?

# Somewhere waiting for me

Come here.

# My lover stands
on golden sands #

Where am I?

You're right here.

How is this possible?

# Somewhere beyond the sea

I love you.

Mm-mm.

This isn't real. No.

My Addison's a hologram.

And I know I haven't left home.

So--oh, no.

Am I dead?

You don't feel dead.

I'm hallucinating.

How?

Why?

The gin.

They drugged me.

And Daisy too.

That is not great.

It--it is.

It is great.

It means there's finally
a scientific explanation

for what's been happening,

which means someone
in the family

is a psychopathic murderer.

The five variables
I didn't consider.

Someone killed Aunt Tessa
and framed the demon.

And At 12:06,
they're gonna kill Daisy too.

But who?

Huh.

The devoted maid is suspicious.

She tried to save Daisy
with that gross dead fish.

That's right.

The grieving mother?

She couldn't have killed her.

She was by the piano, with you.

Hmm. The skeptical doctor.

It was his idea to take
off the restraints.

Come on, Ben. No motive.

That just leaves
the angry father

and his jealous brother.

Magda did say something
about a new will.

One of the brothers gets
the money if Daisy dies.

Yeah. But how did they kill
Aunt Tessa?

No one was in the room
with Daisy,

and the door was locked.

Well, it is one of
those creepy old mansions.

Those usually have--

Secret passageways.

There's a hidden door
in the bedroom.

There must be.

Yeah.

It's almost midnight.

You have to go.

Mm-mm.

I wanna stay here with you.

I know.

But this isn't real.

Hang on, Daisy.

I knew it.

Father, how did it go?

There's been some progress.

Oh, wonderful.

I asked Magda to bring up
some soup for Daisy.

Is this good timing?

Sure is.

I'm just gonna make
a quick call.

Excuse me.

911 hasn't been invented yet.

It's dead.

The line's been dead
since you arrived.

It was the demon.
- Forget the demon.

I need you to tell me
about the new will.

What happened the night
of Daisy's birthday?

Well, there was an argument.

I don't understand
why you can't

become a salesman
like Percival.

Can't keep living in the past,
sitting around all day

feeling sorry for yourself.

And I won't have you relying
on my inheritance either.

I am not one
of your charity cases.

Charles, please.

I said I don't
want her money!

Well, then, I'll make sure
you don't get a penny.

She cut Charles out?

Are you saying Mr. Charles
is the killer?

He has been so angry.

No, the killer is the one
who is going to get

the money if Daisy dies.

The next in line,
now that Charles is out,

the one whose bedroom,
I assume,

is next to Daisy's.

That would be Mr. Percy.

There's your demon.

He dosed me with something.

This would be so much easier
if we had the internet.

The what?

Encyclopedias,
the original internet.

Magda, has Mr. Percy
requested you pick anything

strange up for him recently,
some odd,

out of the ordinary purchase?
- Yes.

He had me drive an hour
out of town

to visit a horticulturist
friend of his,

said he wanted some new plants
for the garden.

What were they?

I--I don't remember.

They were white.

It started with a J?

Jim Something.

Jim. Jim. Jim.

Jim something.

Jim, Jim, Jim.

Jimsonweed.

"Plant, also known
as devil's snare.

"Can cause fever, amnesia,
and vivid hallucinations.

Over time, it can be--"
- Fatal.

Uncle Percy did his homework.

He's been dosing Daisy's soup
since her birthday,

and he's going to deliver
the final dose in six minutes.

If you're right, I'm the one
who's been poisoning her.

If I'm right, you'll be
the one who helps me save her.

Uncle Percy didn't
kill Auntie Tessa.

I can't believe that.

The Great Depression was--

is a scary time for people.

And fear makes us
do crazy things.

No.

The demon did it.

You taught me
something today.

Sometimes we need to step
outside what we believe

to see things
for what they are.

But if the demon isn't real, then...

my uncle is a murderer.

I think I prefer the demon.

We still need ironclad proof.

But I have an idea.

We'll need the doctor's help.

Are you game?

Yeah.

May the love and the grace
of the Holy Spirit

be with you now and move you
on to the everlasting life

of the love
of the Father of God,

and the everlasting
Holy Spirit.

No!

Time Of Death, 12:06.

They'll be here soon
to take the body.

Will you join us in a prayer
for the departed, Constable?

Let us pray.

In the name of the Father
and of the Son

and of the Holy Spirit--

Do you hear that?

- What?
- The Holy Spirit.

Where?

It brings us a message.

Well? What's it say?

Shh. It says the demon
is still here.

Do you remember the three steps
of an exorcism?

Step one, I command
the demon to reveal itself!

Impossible.

I felt no pulse.

Step two, we fight for
the soul of the possessed.

What do you want, demon?

Someone here killed Daisy.

Oh, God.

No!

Please, don't hurt me!

Don't possess me!

You killed Aunt Tessa!
Confess.

I confess.

You poisoned Daisy
with jimsonweed.

I confess.

And you did it
for the inheritance.

No.

I did it for Lola.

Ye--wait. What?

- Percy?
- The demon is real, Lola.

What the hell
is going on here?

Percival, you idiot.

We were gonna run away
together, Lola and me,

when I got the inheritance money.

I'm in love with her.

She said she wanted
to go to Hollywood.

You're a hell of an actress,
I'll give you that.

Oh, shut up, Charles.

I've never had anything
on my terms.

The child I had to have,
the man I had to marry.

Getting the chance
at my dream again,

that was something
worth believing in!

Forgive us, Father.

I'm sorry, but I do
not have that authority.

I forgive you.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

Daisy?

Is-- is that you?

You... forgive me?

After everything I-- I did?

How?

It's just what I believe in.

Yeah, well,
she can forgive you

all she wants,
but you're still going to jail.

Step three, the demon leaves.

The exorcist wins.

Oh, my God.

Look.

What? I don't see anything.

Exactly, the posts
about Daisy's possession

disappeared, which means--

Ben did it?

Ben did it.

Whoo!

One step closer
to making it home.

Oh, that is the power
of believing, baby.

I'm starting a new vision
board tonight, first thing.

Oh, no.

What is it?

Wait. No, no, no.

That-- no, that can't--

how?

Ian, you're scaring me.

I just figured out where
the interference

in the imaging chamber
is coming from.

I wanted to thank you
for helping me see things

from a different perspective.

You too, Joan of Arc.

I decided I'm gonna donate
the inheritance money.

There's a small charity nearby.

They give people jobs.

I'd like to help them grow.

Auntie Tessa
would've liked that.

What's the charity called?

It's called Goodwill.

Yeah.

I have a feeling
it'll really take off.

You know, I still
believe God sent you here.

I may have had
devil's snare in my system,

but when I first looked
at you, Father,

I saw an angel looking back.

He looked younger than you
with black hair and dark eyes.

Wait.

You're leaving now,
aren't you?

To Baltimore?

Oh.

Yeah.

Right.

Have a safe trip.

Ben, can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

I have been trying
to reach you all day.

I had to cut off the signal
to Quantum Leap Headquarters

so they wouldn't interfere.

My name is Janis Calavicci.

You don't remember me.

But I'm here to warn you
that--

No. No.

Ben! Ben!

No! No!

Ben, come on.

Ben?

You know me?

It's now or never, new guy.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.

# Whoo-hoo

# Whoo-hoo

# Whoo-hoo

# I got my head checked

# By a jumbo jet

Here we go.

# Whoo-hoo

# And I'm pins
and I'm needles #

# Whoo-hoo
- Whoo!

Freedom, baby!

# All of the time
but I'm never sure #

Leah, you slash their
tires like I showed you?

Are you sure?
- Yeah, Stacey.

I'm sure.

We did it.

We escaped.

So we just escaped school?

# Yeah, yeah
