Original subtitles

Here do I bring light and air in at the east.

Illuminate our temple.

Bring it the breath of life.

Here do I bring light and earth in at the north.

Illuminate our temple.

Build it in strength.

Hear me, almighty one.

Red lords of the watchtowers of the east.

I do command your presence at this our meeting.

That our circle be guarded.

Our rights be witnessed.

Come.

Be with us as one.

Yes, come join with me.

No! Your face is on the screen!

I don't think you're dressed for the beach.

What do you know about witchcraft?

Incantations. Things that go bump in the night.

I met Linda Blair once.

So, what does Teague expect us to find here, anyway?

I'm not sure.

He said the woman was the latest in a series of serial killings.

Just to look around.

Okay. I don't know if we're going to find anything, though.

What's that?

Uh, I don't know. It's some kind of book.

All that seems to be left is the cover.

Hey, but you know what's weird? Look at this.

The inside is burned more than the outside.

Like the fire started in it.

Any idea what it's all about?

No, I can't make anything out from what's left.

I'll check it out.

All right.

Let's get out of here, huh?

Yeah. This gives me the creeps.

will never be the same.

Bye.

Can I help you?

Um, yes.

I am looking for this book.

You found a rare one.

You know what it is?

Yes, this is the cover to a grimoire.

A magician's book of rituals.

I thought it was witchcraft.

Oh, no, this is much more than that.

This is Serenio.

Second only to the devil himself.

Really?

Do you have a copy of it?

Sure.

Any of these over here will tell you all you need to know.

Um... These are all new.

You claim ritual.

Oh, no, no. I need an exact copy of this.

If I have it, it'll be down here.

If you'll excuse me.

Oh, hi.

Keeping you down here in the basement, are they?

Understandably so.

Look, I found it.

Somehow I thought you might.

I think it reads like a cookbook recipe.

Erecting the temple.

Clearing the temple.

Full moon right.

Dark moon right.

Opening the circle.

Okay, let's start here.

Johnny, what's up? Hey, Mitch.

Listen, what can you tell me about this guy who hired you on the serial murder

case?

Well, I can tell you that's confidential.

All right, let me put it to you another way.

In the Atlanta serial murders, it turns out that the reporter covering the case

was a guy who did it.

Up in L .A., they had a guy who was always hanging around the station house.

You see where I'm going with this?

So you're saying this guy may have hired me so he could stay close to the

investigation.

It's a thought.

Hey, look, if this guy of yours is stand -up and straight, great.

But if he ain't, bring me in.

I can do that.

All right.

Take care. Be good.

Salt, wine, water, oil, and a knife for

my asame.

Right.

Establish the alignment of the room, north, south, east, west, making sure

face east.

Where's east?

Where's north?

North, south, east, west. Okay.

Facing east, cast the circle around the altar with the asame. How

do I do that?

Holding the asame stiff -armed in front of you.

Both hands.

Point down.

Here we go.

We're so good.

Non -productive, but also non -violent.

Okay, now for the colors.

Yellow is the east, red is the south, blue is the west, green to the north.

Okay, now to the good stuff.

Elo, Elo, Alephak.

What is this?

Elo, Elo, Kozarek. Wait, it's like a poem.

Okay, it has a rhythm.

Elo, Elo, Raleema.

Elo, Elo, Sirenius. Wait, Sirenius?

Sirenius?

I scared myself to death in here.

Hear me, oh mighty one, dread lords of the watchtowers of the east.

I do summon your presence to my circle.

Let my rights be witnessed.

Okay, Ryan, you really do need some help.

I didn't know anybody was here.

Okay, well, I've got an idea. Why don't you wait out in the hall?

The landlord sent me.

Gave me a key.

I knocked.

Really, I did.

Look, I didn't mean anything.

I'm a bummer.

You're a big sleep.

How about if you don't wait out in the hall, I call the police?

No problem.

Jerks like that should die.

Pig?

I had a little visit from Detective Buddy last night.

You thought that... That I might be involved with the murders?

You think I'm the killer, Mitch?

Convince me you're not.

There's more evidence of evil in the world today than there ever has been.

Don't you feel it?

It's the time of the demons, Mitch.

If you think I'm a bad guy, jump me.

Trust your instincts.

So what have you found?

Uh, nothing much. Ryan found some old book. She's running a check on it.

What kind of book?

Bookseller said it's called Grimoire.

Is it full of ghosts and goblins?

Yeah.

Hey, Ryan. Hey, Kitty.

Great day outside.

Waited to see you. Did you have a good night? Yeah, it was wonderful.

Have a great day.

All right. See you later.

I ate a cup of coffee cooking.

Are you kidding? After the night I've had, I've killed for one.

So, what's it gonna be?

Besides me, that is.

A long weekend, tiptoeing through the tulips?

Smelling the rosebuds?

I love rosebuds.

Jed.

Get fried, Jed.

Missing the best weekend of your life.

You know, in the past four months since I've been here, he hits on me every

single time I come in.

Easy. 1 -1 -1, huh?

Take it easy, huh?

Don't worry. It's not going to be that bad. It won't even scar up that much.

Thanks for your fast action with that ice.

Can't waste all that expensive training.

Hey, Abe.

What are you doing here?

I heard it on the scanner. Listen.

What does your friend have to do with this accident here?

Nothing. The guy tripped.

Hey, Mitch.

I've been a cop far too long, and I know when somebody grew up being guilty,

please. Excuse me. Hey, hey.

What's wrong?

I caused it.

That's crazy. The guy tripped.

No, no, no.

You've got to believe me.

I don't know how, but I caused that.

It was like I was feeling it.

It was like I was making him do it.

But no, not because I wanted to.

Because I said, I said the words, go fry yourself.

And he did.

All right, look.

We're back to the office. We'll go over everything, huh? Step by step, beat by

beat.

It's just, um, I want to go to church, but that's okay. I'll meet you there.

Mr. Bride?

Anybody here?

Anybody home?

Hey, hey.

I don't want to wait till we get back to the office. I'm worried about you.

Where's all this guilt coming from?

Okay.

Last night, when I opened the book, I felt something.

I don't know what, um, but it was just like... No, no, no, no,

no. Go ahead. What? Say it, say it.

I felt this...

Power. It was like absolute massive power.

In the ritual?

Yeah. But it was also a feeling in me.

Like it was how I was supposed to feel. Like I was supposed to be doing that.

What do you mean how you're supposed to feel?

Okay.

Like when I went to pick out the knife out of the drawer.

I knew it was the right knife. It practically jumped right into my hands.

And then when I was lighting the candles, all of that felt right. And

reading the book.

At first, it was all this mumbo -jumbo, and I didn't understand any of it.

But then the more I read, the more I could understand it, and it began to

and it was this... It was so natural. It was so real, like I was supposed to be

doing it.

Like I'd read it before.

I know, okay, I know. It sounds crazy. It sounds stupid.

No, no.

Mitch, those feelings were there.

I felt them. They were real. Okay, okay.

So what do you want to do now?

Right now...

I want to go home and take that book and everything that has to do with that

book and throw it in the trash.

And then I'm going to spring clean the entire apartment, wash the walls,

everything. Want some help?

Yeah, you and a mop and a bucket.

Sure. Hey, you know, I was thinking back there that next Halloween, maybe we

could rent you out.

You know what?

That's the problem with you.

Because I try and tell you all these things that are serious, and you make it

all a joke.

Everything's always just this big joke.

You feel better?

Yeah.

Thanks.

I'll see you.

Oh, great. I'm glad I caught you, Ryan. Katie, I'm really in a hurry. Just one

question. Is your place as cold as mine?

Cold? Uh, no more than usual.

And the walls?

What about the walls?

Come in and see for yourself.

It just started today.

And the landlord?

When you get him on the phone, English is not his first language.

Uh, I don't know.

Missy, you think you can shove Starkey out of here?

Well, we're going to see for ourselves, both of us, who gets to shove who to

where. That's what we're going to see.

Um, okay, well, I'll check it out and let you know.

Okay.

Hey, Ryan?

Yeah? Please don't forget.

Okay, I won't.

And we're going to have this one dandy time doing it too.

Yes, sir. One way or the other.

Mitch!

Hey, I gotta tell you.

I just get back to the station house. There's a second call for me.

I get this girl involved again.

There's this guy all sliced and diced in there.

What's going on here, Mitch?

I don't think she did this, but two in one day.

Give me a little time. I want to talk to her. A little time. I can give you.

That's all.

I did this.

I killed that man.

Ryan, stop this. Now listen to me. No, you listen to me, please.

I don't know how, but I'm causing all of this. Ryan, that's crazy.

Earlier today, I told Jed to go fry himself, remember?

And that plumber, he was here this morning, and he scared me, so I said the

word. I said, jerks like that should die.

It's not me. It's that book, Mitch.

That's the cause of all of this. That's why all of this is happening. It is that

book.

So then, what did you do?

It was the only thing I could think of. I knocked everything off the table and

drove away whatever it was.

I wish I'd known you'd like to dabble this much.

Dabble? I'm curious. It's my nature.

This curious?

I guess.

Nothing was driven away. Everything was invited in with you.

You opened the circle.

What circle?

The portal.

The passage through which all entities must travel to enter our world.

But how can I do that? I'm not a witch.

I'm not anything like a witch. You have the potential. I sensed it when you

first came in. That's why I was so worried.

To do what you've done, you must have some affinity, some... what in the

world is called sensitivity.

But the woman who opened the circle before was killed.

Now, why haven't they killed me?

Because contrary to what you believe, your circle is your entire apartment.

was intact.

When she was found, her circle was broken.

Who did you call?

Call? A name.

While you were chanting, did you mention a name?

Uh, Sirenius.

Who's that?

The horned one.

Right hand of the devil.

Perfect.

But he wasn't the only one who came.

But if that's the only name that I mentioned... The circle isn't closed.

Now, any entity can pass through the portal.

And you are the conduit.

As long as they have access, they will continue to protect you.

You know what?

This is just too bizarre. What are we supposed to do now? You have to close

circle.

That's it. I mean, just close the circle.

Let's do it. You cannot be part of this.

I think I'm going to let her face this alone. You got the wrong guy.

Ryan has the contact.

Ryan has been accepted.

Only Ryan can help Ryan.

Unless you have another answer to all this.

Mitch. All right, all right. I'll wait outside.

And only until the circle's closed.

Remember,

you are the one who commanded them.

You are the one who controls them. Only you can complete the ritual. Close the

circle.

They will try to scare you. And they will, Ryan.

But they will not harm you, not directly.

Remember, you must stay in control.

And Ryan... Yes?

They lie.

I have... I have a sense of fear.

Something I've never felt before. It's right in the pit of my stomach.

They're here already to distract you.

Wait, where's the yellow candle? I'm supposed to light the yellow candle now.

It's there.

You'll find it.

Everything must be exactly as it was.

Now, mark the circle.

Not the bell.

Now, concentrate.

Let nothing distract you, real or aloof, nothing.

Elo. Elo.

Elo. Elo.

Elo. Elo. Elo.

Elo. Elo.

Elo.

Elo.

Elo.

Right.

Lazari, Maka, Naro, Kachi, Lamaka, Asami, Lamaka.

Malcolm.

Malcolm, my insides are falling apart. All I feel is fear.

Consent your fear.

I can't. I can't do this.

You must. Go on. Read the verses you did not do before.

Mother?

What's happened to her?

Ryan?

Ryan, concentrate!

Ryan?

Don't do this to us, Ryan.

Don't do this to us.

Mother, I... I'm not

doing this!

You must concentrate.

I'm not doing this!

Ryan.

Come back to the book, Ryan.

Daddy?

Ryan.

But they're dead. Ryan, it's an illusion.

It's all an illusion.

Concentrate.

Um... Um... Lamarca...

Bofara... Et...

Ramios.

Asame. Please.

Don't send me away.

I'll be your friend.

I can help you.

Please.

I promise.

I promise.

I'll give you all you ever wanted.

Sandriaco.

Ramacanjo. Et Romulos.

Finish, complete the burst!

are here.

And now she is ours.

She will join us and lead us.

Now,

Gabi will go.

Good job, Cole.

Hear my words and heed their meaning.

Preserve the abyss from which you rose.

Okay, yeah.

Okay.

Oh,

I got an idea.

Each time you close a circle...

I drove him back into the world where he's dwelling for all eternity.

It's the most we can hope for.

You don't get it, do you, Teague?

Look, Malcolm left me no choice. He was a part of this from the very beginning.

And Serenios?

I kicked his butt today.

He comes back tomorrow.

I'll kick it all over again.

There's no winning.

The best we can hope for is a tie.

Teague, I don't play for ties.
