All language subtitles for Vampire High s01e20 The Awakening

You are gathered to witness the
expulsion of one of your own.

It is the wish of the elders that I
pronounce sentence on Drew for violating

cardinal rule of the Mansbridge
experiment.

Shouldn't he have a trial or something?

Isn't that the way things are usually
done?

Drew, stand and face your kin.

What will happen to him?

Doesn't he get any last words at least?
Silence.

It is the command of the elders that you
will leave Mansbridge after the stroke

of midnight to wander the earth in exile
for the rest of your days.

Don't you think that's a little harsh
for having the hots for some mortal?

The sentence has been delivered.

So it is willed.

And so it must be.

This can't be.

This is not his destiny, nor mine.

Drew, do you wish to say anything?

Yes.

But not to any of you.

When the great eclipse plunged the world
into darkness, the vampire race erupted

in a civil war.

The bloodthirsty fury battled with the
enlightened elders for domination of the

undead. In desperation, the elders
gathered up those young vampires that

be saved and entrusted them to me.

To humanize them, to tame their
instincts, and teach them how to live

mortals.

The power of choice can be a dangerous
thing.

For humans, it can mean the difference
between success and failure.

I'm telling you, it's not right.

Leave it, Cole. For a vampire, it can
mean the difference between life or a

much worse than death.

Even vampires are entitled to a defense.

I pleaded guilty.

End of story.

Oh, so you're giving up, just like that?

Just like that.

Hey, no more pencils?

No more books?

Flip it, Marty.

Think about it.

Out of this black hole, into the open
road.

What is wrong with this picture?

I don't get you, man.

I thought you were the strong one around
here, but this is... Cowardice? Is that

what you're thinking?

Hey, I believed in something and I went
for it, okay?

Great, so now you're a martyr.

Look, all I'm saying is it doesn't have
to end this way, that's all.

All I'm saying is it does.

If you won't fight for you, then I will.

Oh, you guys are giving me goosebumps.

One of these days, Marty.

Anytime, Carl.

I know it's hard.

Do you?

How can you know what you've never felt?

Look, you're not the first one to ever
be in love, Meryl.

Did you ever find the one in all your
years as a vampire? Did you?

Well, I've had my share of... Answer me.

Did you ever find someone and know in
your deepest soul that he was it?

No.

Drew is my one, and there's nothing that
can change that.

How can you be so sure?

If Drew's been given the old heave -ho
by the elders, then maybe he isn't the

one. What are you saying?

His fate is sealed.

And you're not part of it.

I guess that Drew phony out of your life
will leave you plenty of time for

homework.

So you called it right and scored two
points for your side.

If the streets taught me one thing, it's
that if something seems too good to be

true, it is.

Can't believe I fell for all his
romantic crap.

That's his game.

He lied to me.

At least he's out of my life for good.

Amen to that.

I'm starved.

Want anything from the kitchen?

No, we're not allowed after hours.

Says who?

It's the rule.

Yeah, well, the rule says everyone's
supposed to die, but nobody wants to.

Ain't life a bitch?

Yeah.

Sherry, I need to... No, just go, or I'm
going to call security. You don't

understand.

You're right, I don't understand.

And I never would the way things were
going. You've got to listen to me. You

come and go as you please, even now.

You're sneaking around the school
without permission.

You're a really creepy guy, you know
that? I can explain everything.

Well, it's too late.

You're going to listen.

I'm not who you think I am. That's not
right. I'm not like you or any of your

friends.

The truth is I'm not like any human you
know. You're really creeping me out.

Sherry, please.

If you love me even for a second, you're
giving me a chance here.

You've got ten seconds.

I was trying to protect you.

That's why all the lies, all the
secrets, so I wouldn't hurt you. Hurt

what? You're not making any sense.

Yeah, and I bet your Uncle Carl's a
vampire, too, and you all work at

Vampire Grill, but only at night because
you'd fry during the daytime, and you

don't have a cell phone because a
vampire wouldn't be caught dead with

am I doing?

Mostly right.

Yeah, and I bet you just couldn't wait
to suck me dry.

Well, I've got news for you.

You already have, and there's nothing
left in me to give. Now get out.

Sure, you've got to believe me, I'm...
Out.

How did you... Like I said,

I'm a vampire.

And you'll never have to see me again.

Carl reading?

And I thought I'd seen everything.

It's all here, Essendon.

The complete book of vampire
jurisprudence.

Jurisprudence? Why, Carl, that's four
syllables.

So... All that law for a brutal
subspecies like us, huh?

Well, the long -term survival of any
society, even ours, is based on justice.

Take that away and it collapses.

Since when did you get so smart?

Since Joe got busted?

Look, I don't mean to pour salt on your
legal wounds, Carl, but the Elder's word

is final.

No, no, no, no.

Look here.

It clearly states that a vampire,
regardless of his crime, is entitled to

and proper defense.

Why can't you just let fate take its
course?

Because he did what we all think about.
It could have been any of us, Essie. But

it wasn't.

Don't interfere if that's what you're
thinking.

What are you talking about?

I can't mind Reed, but I've got great
instincts and they tell me you're up to

something. I'm just helping Carl.

Then leave her out of this.

Who?

Drew's dearly beloved.

The one responsible for all of it.

Meryl, Drew crossed the line, not
Sherry.

She changed everything.

Don't do anything foolish, Meryl, or
you'll end up like Drew.

Maybe worse.

I was about to write my final entry on
you.

So I get immortalized after all. Let's
cut the sarcasm.

This is not a happy occasion for me,
Drew. And I can't imagine it is for you

either. Let's just say that it's my
destiny.

No.

It didn't have to be.

You chose this path. You brought this on
yourself.

And those are your final words.

Who do you think you are?

You had the chance for something better
and you threw it away.

For what?

For love?

Maybe. Or lust.

It doesn't even matter. The point is,
you let go of who you really are.

So it was a lecture after all.

I write this with a heavy heart.

One of our own is leaving Mansbridge.

Dr. Murdoch.

Drew?

What is it, Dylan?

Sherry's not well.

All right.

We'll resume this later.

You still can't get over her, huh?

Even now.

I don't want to talk about it.

That's okay.

There's going to be a lot of time for
that later.

What do you mean?

I've been chosen to be your guide.

For what?

Well, the elders want me to take you to
the coast.

After that, you're on your own.

Frankly, it'll be nice to get a couple
of days out of this joint.

I can take care of myself.

The way they figure it, the fury gets a
hold of you.

It's all over for this cozy little
experiment.

And you're supposed to protect me from
the bad guys, right?

Something like that, yeah.

You tell them that when I walk out of
here, I walk out alone, okay?

I'll be back at midnight.

She's having a fever.

I'm going to call a doctor.

Stay with her.

Like I have other plans.

Joe.

It's going to be okay.

I don't think I can take any more
sympathy.

That's not what I'm offering.

Then what?

This is not how I saw it.

You leaving like this.

It's the way it is.

You'll live with it.

Carl doesn't want to.

And I don't want to. And I won't.

What are you saying?

It can't end like this.

Why not?

Meryl, what is it?

If you could only read my mind, and I
wouldn't have to say it.

Say what?

Your destiny and my destiny.

Look at me.

Look at me.

Say it.

I can't be anyone else.

Only the one.

Don't you understand?

What have you done?

True.

But I... I don't understand. How could
it escalate so quickly?

I'm at a loss. But my best guess is a
burst appendix.

But she'll be all right.

I've called an ambulance, but with the
poison already spread through her body,

we could lose her.

Yes.

I think I've found a way to defend him.

Will Murdoch buy it?

It's all in the presentation, my dear.
That's what passes for justice in the

real world.

I can't lose her, Carl.

Hey, we won't.

She's dying.

I'm sorry.

She needs me.

I know how you feel.

Life's dealt you a bad hand, right?

But that's the way it is.

So let's go.

Then she's coming with me.

Am I hearing what I think I'm hearing?

Marty.

Please.

For your own good.

Stay out of this.

You screwed up once, Drew.

Don't screw it up again.

Touch me again, and I swear I'll give
you no choice.

Paramedics are here.

Let's get them right up. There's no
time.

to take you away.

There's a way that we can be together
forever.

But you have to make a choice.

I can give you eternal life.

So, um, I guess you'll be closing down
the school?

For a few days, give everyone a chance
to grieve.

I don't know.

Life sucks sometimes, doesn't it?

Yes.

It does.

Um, is it alright if I sleep on the
couch out there?

I don't think I can handle sleeping in
her room just now.

Why don't you use mine?

Really?

Yes.

I'm sorry, Drew. I truly am. But it's
time.

Hasn't he suffered enough?

The death of a mortal is outside our
providence.

Hardly. Can't you see the man's still
hurting?

We're all hurting.

Believe me, I understand you all have
strong feelings about this. It's more

feelings.

It's our rights as vampires.

Girl, this isn't the right time for
this.

Oh, yes it is, Dr. Murdoch.

I've done some homework here, and I must
declare these proceedings out of order.

You what?

The elders have decreed that we must
live by the rules.

Those rules include the rights of each
of us to a fair trial by a jury of our

peers.

He admitted his guilt.

It does not waive his right to a proper
defense.

Go, Carl.

What was Drew's crime, really?

He loved a woman.

A mortal woman.

And he was prepared to risk it.
Everything for that.

Was that the result of a baser instinct?

A predatory nature?

Dark, savage impulses?

No.

It was the result of that most common of
all afflictions.

Human frailty.

I submit that Drew French's crime is
none other than human weakness.

You and the elders have condemned drew
for his newfound humanity

The very thing this experiment hoped to

achieve I

rest my case

Thanks to Carl's impassioned plea, the
Mansbridge experiment has been spared

first casualty.

I'm glad to have you back.

This sudden turn of events, the welcome,
has convinced me all the more of the

fickleness of fate, if such a thing
exists at all.
