Previously on Let the Right One In...

Hey. I made a more special cake for Isaiah.

I hope that's okay.

You and Eleanor made this night

just... perfect.

How does this guy know about Peter?

It's got something to do

- with that cop. - The woman?

I thought you were taking care of that.

It'll happen. First this guy, then her.

I think he's protecting another vampire.

Eerie music

Dramatic music

Stay where you are. Now, turn around.

Do it, or I kill your father.

Matthew's dead.

He gave his life for us.

And he did it so you could have a chance to get better.

So I want you to pay attention to me

and do exactly as I say.

What about Claire Logan?

We just killed three of her men.

We're gonna have to let that go for now.

Ellie and I have to leave

right away.

But not forever.

Yeah.

Forever.

Dramatic music

I think you've been looking for me.

I'm Claire.

Mark.

And you are?

Eleanor.

You're very special, aren't you Eleanor?

What do you want?

- I want you to come with me. - Where?

My house.

I don't trust you, either,

but I suspect we're after the same thing.

And what is that?

A cure.

"God's Gonna Cut You Down" by Johnny Cash

You can run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Sooner or later, God'll

Cut you down

Go tell that long-tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambler, the gambler

The backbiter, tell 'em that God's gonna

Cut 'em down, tell 'em that God's

Gonna cut 'em down

Well, my goodness gracious, let me tell you the news

My head's been wet with the midnight dew

I've been down on bended knee

Talking to the man from Galilee...

You're welcome here.

Voice so sweet, I thought I heard the shuffle

Of angel's feet, he called my name

And my heart stood still

When he said, "John, go do my will"

Go tell that long-tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Tell 'em that God's gonna

Cut 'em down

You can run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Sooner or later

God'll cut you down

Well, you may throw your rock

Hide your hand

Working in the dark against your fellow man

But as sure as God made black and white

What's done in the dark

Will be brought to the light

You can run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Sooner or later

God'll cut you down

Go tell that long-tongue liar...

Peter, this is Eleanor.

Eleanor, this is my brother, Peter.

The gambler, the backbiter

Tell them that God's gonna

Cut you down

Tell them that God's gonna

Cut you down

Tell them that God's gonna

Cut you down

Have we met?

I was wondering the same thing.

I know I've seen your...

Ellie?

Honey, what is it?

- It's me. - What?

We were partners.

Honey... what are you talking about?

You remember when you and Mom took me

to that stargazers club?

He and I met that night.

When was this?

Ten years ago.

Ellie was attacked just a few days later.

So was I.

Peter, do you remember anyone else being there that night?

Maybe someone, I don't know, acting strange?

Yeah, there was a man.

- What? - You remember?

He came up to us, said he was, like, a volunteer.

He asked where we live.

- He what? - Yeah, he said

he was collecting addresses for a newsletter.

Ellie was bitten

outside our home.

If that was really the...

if...

If Eleanor and Peter were infected by the same host,

that means they carry the same strain,

which means I finally might be able to treat it.

But I'll...

I'll have to confirm they're a match.

How?

I'll need a sample of your virus.

Oh, no, no, no. You're not touching my daughter.

Well, then, it's...

gonna be very difficult to help her.

Dad, this is what we came here for.

If you need her blood,

I'll take it.

I wish it were as simple as a blood draw,

but the virus is housed inside the brain.

I'm assuming you don't want me drilling into her skull.

You are assuming right.

So, there's only one other place that it lives.

My bite.

Technically, your salivary glands...

but impressive.

This way, please.

Slow, somber music

Isaiah?

- Isaiah. - What?

I, uh...

I spoke to Mr. Mark.

I know they're gone.

He said that Eleanor was gonna say goodbye to you.

Did that happen?

Did it not go well?

It's okay to be upset.

I'm not upset.

I am.

What you and Eleanor have is very special.

It doesn't have to end just because she moved away.

The two of you can-can

- text and Face Time every day... - No, we can't.

Of course you can.

No, I never get to talk to her again!

- What? That doesn't even make... - No.

Oh.

Okay. Okay.

Be very, very still.

That's it?

That's it.

I barely even felt it.

My sister knows what she's doing.

What happens now?

Now, I sequence her virus.

How long will it take?

Uh, it's a pretty simple analysis.

Should be just a few hours.

A few hours.

Yeah.

What?

I've been looking for answers for ten years.

I've been coming at this all wrong.

What do you mean?

All this time I've been searching

for the monster who bit Ellie.

Thinking that will lead me to a cure.

I just had no idea what I was doing.

Well, finding the host

would be immensely valuable.

And searching for it

led you to me.

What?

You and I met once, too.

What?

After Ellie was bitten, I knocked on your door.

You don't remember?

You told me your brother was dead.

I thought he was.

My father waited until his deathbed to tell me the truth.

Oh, maybe he did it

to protect you.

What?

I've just been...

taking care of Peter for just a few months and it's...

it's nearly broken me.

You've been doing it for ten years.

Can I ask you something?

How have you two not gotten caught?

I've seen firsthand the mess she leaves.

Oh...

That's not...

That-that... She-she-she-she's never

done that before.

Well, how does she...

You kill for her.

Do you have help?

No.

Do you?

I used to.

What happened to them?

You put a bullet in his head.

Your house is ginormous.

Is it?

I grew up here, so it doesn't really feel that big to me.

For two people?

Used to be three.

There was my dad, but he died.

I'm sorry.

I'm not.

I've just always been closer with Claire, you know?

She seems super smart.

Yeah, she's a genius. I mean, like, literally.

She won a grant called a Genius Award.

- She won a MacArthur? - Yeah.

I was "Most Improved" on my JV soccer team,

so I think we're basically even.

I played soccer once.

Not for you?

I was too slow.

I doubt that's a problem now.

Uh, this is what I wanted to show you.

You like it?

It's nice.

And there's an elevator at the end of the hallway

that goes straight to the basement,

so you never have to worry about the sun.

I don't get it. Is this where you sleep

when you get bored of your room?

No.

This would be yours.

Slow, tense music

I'm proposing that you and Eleanor live with me and Peter

until they're both cured.

I'll need her close by as I conduct my research,

and I need you to...

To... what?

The man you killed...

Matthew was his name.

Peter and I depended on him,

so I need you to take over his responsibilities.

Um... what might those be?

Feeding my brother, for starters,

which, given your track record, shouldn't be a problem.

How long?

- How long what? - Till they're cured.

You want a date?

I have no idea,

but if they really are a match, we're talking months, not years.

It might not be safe

for me and Ellie to stay in one place for that long.

Oh, no, I can promise you it's not.

Just yesterday, a detective showed up at my door.

And based on your reaction, you know who I'm talking about.

Matthew suspected there was a connection between

you and this woman.

Is she your friend?

I'm sorry.

For what?

She's already starting to connect the dots.

It's not gonna take her months

- to figure it all out. - You're not...

I can't help Eleanor if I'm in prison.

- No. - You've just told me you've

- killed over a hundred... - I don't care. Not her.

Either we're in this together, or we're not.

The answer is no.

Is this woman's life worth

more than your daughter's?

Either you kill her tonight,

or you can say goodbye to any hope of a cure.

Listen, I don't know

what Eleanor said to Isaiah,

but he's under the impression

that he's not allowed to talk to her ever again.

And I-I don't think I need to tell you that,

after what happened with his dad, the last thing he needs

is for another someone he loves

to fall off the face of the earth.

So, I need you to call me back as soon as you get this message.

Hello?

Want to take a field trip?

Excuse me?

I've been looking through some of these files,

and, no disrespect to the fine work

of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police,

but there are a few witnesses

I'd like to interview personally.

I'm headed to the airstrip now, want to come?

I can't tonight.

You sure? Montreal in March is like Paris in June.

- It's just not a good time. - Oh.

Troubles with the boyfriend? Or the, uh, not-boyfriend?

Listen,

feel free to tell me to mind my own business,

but I have this friend, and whenever some asshole

ghosts her, she sends a couple of U.S. Marshals to his house.

Yeah, well, to do that, I'd have to know where the hell he went.

Oh, should be easy enough to find him.

He's got a phone, doesn't he?

I'm not sending marshals to his house.

But I bet you'd still like to know where he is.

In our line of work, we got to look out for each other.

If I run it through my channels,

there is zero chance that it blows back on you.

You got a pen?

Slow, tense music

Honey?

In here.

- Hey. - Hey.

You brought that with you?

You said we were leaving for good,

and I always have it with me when we leave.

Hmm.

I don't know, I wanted to see if this place

could feel like home.

Which one is your favorite?

Slow, somber music

Probably that one.

She'd be proud of you, Dad.

You never lost faith that we'd find a cure.

Even when I did.

- Honey... - Thank you.

- Ellie... - And I know

it's not for sure gonna happen, but...

it might.

Dad, I might actually...

You okay?

- You sure? - Mm-hmm.

Dad, what's wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

If we're staying,

I'm gonna get our stuff, okay?

Want me to come with?

No, no, no.

I'll be quick.

But, while I'm gone,

do not let

that woman get anywhere near you.

Dad...

No, no, no, no. Promise me that.

I promise.

Okay.

- Is Eleanor... - Upstairs with her dad.

What'd he say?

He's thinking about it, but he'll say yes.

Why?

Because he loves her.

Tense, dramatic music

You're having second thoughts.

No.

It's okay.

I just...

Does it have to be like it was with Chris?

No, of course not.

- 'Cause that was just... - Peter.

If she was really infected at the same time as you,

by the same host as you,

she's a thousand times more valuable than Chris.

Any treatment I want to give you, I can test first on her.

Any procedure, any biopsy that's too risky.

So you're saying she's a lab rat.

I'm saying she's you.

We will never get a chance like this again.

Do you understand?

Will she suffer?

I don't know.

But I will...

I will do everything I can to minimize that, and...

once he takes care of our police problem,

we'll have time to do this right,

to be precise.

Well, eventually, he's gonna figure out

that we're not really trying to help her.

Don't ever forget what they did to Matthew.

The people who love you have sacrificed all.

Soon, it'll be your turn to step up.

Yeah?

I was gonna order some pizza.

Got a hankering for Hawaiian.

Thanks, I'm not hungry.

I'd really like to know what Eleanor said to you.

Why you think you'll never hear from her again.

There's something you're not telling me, isn't there?

She said I'd be safer if we didn't talk.

Did she say why?

No.

Isaiah.

I told her I didn't care if I was safe,

but she decided it wasn't up to me.

Can I tell you something

that I'm embarrassed to admit?

Sometimes,

I wish your heart wasn't quite so big.

'Cause I knew,

when it got broken, it would hurt like this.

But you need to know

that, no matter what happens,

there is one person

who will never disappear on you.

I'll be in your business in ways you don't even want.

I'll let you know when the pizza's here.

Hey, what'd you find out?

You sure know how to pick 'em, honey.

Excuse me?

Didn't you say your ex was a dealer?

I'm not so sure this not-boyfriend of yours

- is much better. - Why?

Well, for starters,

that number you gave me was for a burner.

- It was what? - Which, in itself,

could be innocuous, but the fact

that he'd turned off location services

is, uh, not a good sign.

Of course, you got to get a little stealthier than that

to evade the likes of me.

His phone last pinged 20 minutes ago

off the cell tower in Long Island.

He's on Long Island?

At a residence titled to Claire Logan.

Isn't that the woman you got in trouble for harassing?

At some point, you're gonna tell me

how this is all connected, right?

As soon as I know, you'll know.

I'm gonna hold you to that.

Okay, I'm off to Canada.

Call you if I find anything good?

Please.

You be careful.

Slow, tense music

Hey.

I got a favor to ask.

I know that God will never forgive me

for what I'm about to do,

but I'm not asking God for help,

I'm asking you.

Please, Liz,

give me the strength

to see this through.

You mind telling me why the hell we're meeting here?

Just, I wanted you both to hear it from me.

Hear what?

That you didn't throw away your lives in vain.

I found her, Zeke.

- Found who? - The woman in charge.

She's real.

It's all real.

And Ellie might finally get cured.

Yeah?

Uh, why don't you look happy?

I am happy.

You look like you're about to be sick.

Once Ellie

gets her life back,

she's gonna need someone to look after her.

She's got someone.

After she's cured,

I'm turning myself in.

My crimes don't go away just because she's better,

and...

I should pay for what I've done.

There is a line that...

once you cross...

There's no coming back.

Slow, gentle music

I was in the middle of a game.

Just kidding. I hate chess.

Why?

The whole point is to protect your king, but...

it's the queens doing all the work.

This your room?

No.

It was my dad's.

Your dad had a lot of books.

I think he even read a couple of them.

You like reading?

I could tell you're curious.

It's the best quality a scientist can have.

Peter said you won a MacArthur.

I'm impressed you know what that is.

Don't ask him what I won it for, though.

I tried to explain it to him one time,

and he was bored out of his mind.

I'm not.

Do you want to come downstairs and help me with my work?

Quiet, tense music

I should wait for my dad

to get back.

Well, when he does,

remind me to show you my favorite part of the lab.

There's a part of the lab I haven't seen?

Damn.

When I said I'd do you a favor, I didn't know I'd get tipped.

- Thought you were the pizza. - The what?

I ordered Hawaiian

if you want to stick around.

Don't even joke about that.

Here's the item.

You gonna tell me why I'm dusting it for prints?

I'm not entirely sure myself,

but I need you to check it against any outstanding cases

related to our drug.

Why?

Hunch.

I'm sorry, I know I said

I wouldn't drag you back into this...

Well, there's an argument I owe you one,

seeing as you saved my life.

Thanks.

Enjoy your pizza.

Fuck off.

Tense, ominous music

I know, I was taken aback the first time I saw them, too.

Why is this room your favorite?

Because of her.

All of these chimpanzees carry the same virus as you and Peter,

but...

Daisy's different.

She's a miracle.

Why?

I injected her with a viral protease inhibitor.

Now she can age.

Of course, Peter mocked me for curing

the only good thing about this virus...

I don't think it's good at all.

My best friend just had a birthday,

and it was, like, the best day ever.

And at the end of it, I was so sad.

That makes sense.

It does?

Of course.

What makes life special is that it doesn't last forever.

The injection you gave to Daisy...

is it safe for people, too?

Slow, tense music

What the h...

Tense, somber music

Hello?

Hey.

Sorry. I know it's unfair of me to call

when I said we couldn't talk.

That's okay.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Um...

It looks like I might actually get cured.

What?

It's not gonna happen right away, but...

If I do...

I was wondering if you

still want to be my friend.

- Are you there? - Yeah.

Oh.

Sorry, was that a "yeah, you're there," or "yeah, you still..."

It was a yeah for both.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Because it seriously might take a while before...

I don't care.

I know you're worried that I'm gonna be, like,

20, and you'll still be 12,

- but... - Actually,

I'm not so worried about that anymore.

- What? - Eleanor,

we're ready.

I got to go.

Oh.

Eleanor?

Yeah?

Um...

I miss you, too.

I know it looks a little medieval,

but the treatment can only be administered

by a spinal injection, so...

it's extremely important you don't move.

And if you get freaked out, just let me know,

and I'll press this button, and everything unlocks.

See?

Slow, tense music

You ready?

Pizza's here.

Hi.

I-I thought you'd left.

Uh, I just came back to...

get our stuff.

And I'm sorry I...

haven't called you back.

But I wanted to do this in person.

Do what?

Say goodbye.

And...

I can explain why we have to leave,

and why Ellie told Isaiah

she can never talk to him again.

Go ahead.

Do you mind if we talk next door?

At my place.

Don't you think it's strange,

after all this time our kids have spent together,

that I have never

seen where you live?

I-I-I can explain that, too.

Please.

I'm gonna go grab my keys.

Let's go.

Mom?

Uh, go back to your room, baby.

But I thought I heard... Mr. Mark.

What are you doing here?

I-I-I just... um...

Mr. Mark is just here to pack up their belongings,

and he and I need to speak in private.

Well, at least let me say goodbye.

Isaiah.

I got to say goodbye to Eleanor.

I didn't get to say goodbye to him.

Goodbye, Mr. Mark.

Tell Eleanor it's okay if she never gets cured.

I like her the way she is.

Be back in a little bit.

Okay.

You ready?

I'm sorry.

I can't.

Hey.

- You okay? - Yeah. You?

Yeah. Yeah. Listen, uh, something came up at work.

I was gonna leave it until tomorrow,

but I really should go in, but only if you are okay.

I'm good.

Okay, so pizza money's on the counter,

- lock the door behind me. - Mom?

Yeah?

Thanks for being so cool tonight.

- See you later. - See you later.

Intense music

Lean all the way forward, please.

Dramatic music

Eleanor.

I know I said before to be very, very still,

but seriously, do not move.

It's over, it's over.

It's okay. Breathe. Come on, Eleanor. Look at me, look at me.

Breathe.

There you go.

You feel any older?

I know it's a lot to take in.

I have to tell my Dad I did this.

- Could you let me out, please? - Uh, just... in a little bit.

I just have to observe you a little bit longer.

But you said you gave this to Daisy.

I did.

And you took it, too, right?

Of course he did.

Is it done? Did you do it?

Why are you wearing scrubs? Where's my daughter?

Yeah?

I ran the prints.

The results just came back.

That was fast.

That's 'cause you were right.

They're a match.

- To what? - The prints on Frank's coin.

Hello?

You okay?

Yeah, I-I was just, um...

I-Isaiah's father?

Mm-hmm.

You sure you're okay?

Naomi, what the fuck is going on?

Naomi?

Eleanor?

In here.

You didn't do it, did you?

Hey, hey, hey.

What the hell did you do to her?

Just relax.

Honey, you okay? Let her go right now.

Your daughter's not going anywhere.

Claire, what are you...

You had one fucking job.

Claire, what is going on?

He didn't do it. Don't you get it?

We have no time now. We have to move fast.

You promised it wouldn't be like this.

Grab the remote control off the table.

- Peter... - Dad!

Get your fucking hands off me.

Peter, you know what to do.

You want him to watch his daughter suffer?

Peter, please, don't.

I'm sorry.

Hands in the air right fucking now!

Naomi, is that you?

Eleanor?

Don't come any closer.

Shut your fucking mouth. I know what you did.

That was my son's father, you piece of shit.

Dad, what is she talking about?

- Peter, now. - No!

Peter!

Intense music

Ellie.

Dad.

It's okay. You're gonna be okay.

Come on.

It's all right.

It's okay.

Go get the door, okay?

Plaintive music

Dad, what are you doing? Come on,

we have to get her to a hospital right now.

Honey, sh...

she's not gonna make it to a hospital.

Ellie.

- No, no, no, no... - Ellie.

You don't have to watch this.

Eleanor...

- Isaiah... - It's okay.

It's okay.

Tell him...

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Tell him yourself.

Isaiah's not losing his mom, too.

No.

No. Eleanor!
