WITCH: Come, children,
and listen,
2
00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:36,581
for the story I tell
holds a lesson.
3
00:00:36,605 --> 00:00:40,152
A lesson that might one day
keep you safe.
4
00:00:40,176 --> 00:00:44,589
So, gather in close
and hear me well.
5
00:00:44,613 --> 00:00:48,126
It's the story
of the Beautiful Child
6
00:00:48,150 --> 00:00:49,296
with the little pink cap.
7
00:00:52,086 --> 00:00:55,500
Her birth was a gift
to her mother and father
8
00:00:55,524 --> 00:00:58,070
in a time of great suffering
and famine.
9
00:00:59,228 --> 00:01:00,838
All in the village agreed
10
00:01:00,862 --> 00:01:03,243
she was
the most beautiful child.
11
00:01:06,202 --> 00:01:08,648
But an illness fell upon her,
12
00:01:09,371 --> 00:01:10,615
and it was predicted
13
00:01:10,639 --> 00:01:13,186
that her first winter
would be her last.
14
00:01:15,244 --> 00:01:18,857
Her father was not one to take
such tidings passively,
15
00:01:20,081 --> 00:01:23,761
and whispers
told of an enchantress
16
00:01:23,785 --> 00:01:27,831
with the power
to cure any ailment.
17
00:01:27,855 --> 00:01:32,270
All that was required
was for her father to be brave
18
00:01:32,294 --> 00:01:34,708
and to trust the darkness.
19
00:01:40,369 --> 00:01:41,681
And he was,
20
00:01:42,438 --> 00:01:43,782
and he did.
21
00:01:46,275 --> 00:01:49,853
But when that enchantress
took away the illness,
22
00:01:49,877 --> 00:01:52,758
she left in its place a gift.
23
00:01:54,583 --> 00:01:59,698
It came to be that the child
had been granted Second Sight.
24
00:01:59,722 --> 00:02:02,801
Everyone thought they wanted
her to read their futures,
25
00:02:04,159 --> 00:02:08,174
but then no one wanted to hear
what she saw.
26
00:02:08,930 --> 00:02:10,709
For it is only the bitter end
27
00:02:10,733 --> 00:02:13,545
that comes for everyone,
anyway.
28
00:02:13,569 --> 00:02:17,047
And she herself
made sure of that.
29
00:02:17,071 --> 00:02:18,782
For it was soon clear...

33
00:02:30,653 --> 00:02:32,666
It seemed
she would spare no one.
34
00:02:34,757 --> 00:02:36,603
Not even her own father,
35
00:02:38,826 --> 00:02:41,274
who, for her,
had sacrificed so much.

(HORSE WHINNIES)
37
00:02:47,001 --> 00:02:49,947
And so, it was ordered
38
00:02:49,971 --> 00:02:54,119
that the child be returned
to the darkness that made her.
39
00:02:55,444 --> 00:02:59,124
She was hidden away,
deep in the woods,
40
00:02:59,148 --> 00:03:00,794
all alone,
41
00:03:01,483 --> 00:03:03,630
with no one to play with.
42
00:03:04,687 --> 00:03:08,802
But still, she had her own way
43
00:03:09,692 --> 00:03:12,071
of making friends.
44
00:03:17,666 --> 00:03:21,815
So, children, please,
beware of gifts.
45
00:03:23,138 --> 00:03:26,484
Beware of those that offer them.
46
00:03:26,508 --> 00:03:30,824
And beware of those who are
only too happy to take them.
47

GRETEL:
Fairy tales have a funny way
48
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,092
of getting into your head.
49
00:04:08,684 --> 00:04:11,929
I don't remember where I was,
or when,
50
00:04:11,953 --> 00:04:13,231
that I first heard the story
51
00:04:13,255 --> 00:04:15,235
of the Beautiful Child
in her little pink cap.
52
00:04:16,592 --> 00:04:18,405
Just feels like
I've always known it.
53
00:04:19,595 --> 00:04:20,904
I wonder how someone gets
54
00:04:20,928 --> 00:04:22,776
their own fairy tale
told about them.
55
00:04:23,998 --> 00:04:25,578
And if I'd even want that.
56
00:04:26,901 --> 00:04:29,347
You have to go through
a lot of terrible trouble.
57
00:04:29,371 --> 00:04:31,014
Then most the time,
some prince appears
58
00:04:31,038 --> 00:04:32,419
and wakes you up anyway.
59
00:04:34,041 --> 00:04:36,821
But I don't see
any princes around here.
60
00:04:36,845 --> 00:04:38,391
There's only my little brother.
61
00:04:39,448 --> 00:04:41,626
He follows me wherever I go,
62
00:04:41,650 --> 00:04:43,463
and I have to share
everything with him.
63
00:04:45,587 --> 00:04:47,064
But at least he's mine.
64
00:04:47,088 --> 00:04:48,668
Why are you wearing that?
65
00:04:51,025 --> 00:04:53,070
I'm going to meet
with John Stripp.
66
00:04:53,094 --> 00:04:55,707
And his wife, if he has one.
67
00:04:55,731 --> 00:04:57,410
Mother imagines
he needs a housekeeper.
68
00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:01,915
But why are your lips
so strangely colored?

so much as a crumb of cake,

Uh, Mother's alone now,
and does what she can.

And really, it's the whole
system that's so absurd.
88
00:06:10,339 --> 00:06:12,450
I mean, senselessly,
we owe crop to some bishop,
89
00:06:12,474 --> 00:06:15,053

WITCH: I've been thinking,
721
01:05:21,956 --> 01:05:25,037
maybe it's for the best
that Hansel isn't with us.
722
01:05:26,495 --> 01:05:27,538
Isn't?
723
01:05:27,562 --> 01:05:30,342
He'll soon come to fear you,
724
01:05:30,366 --> 01:05:31,977
as all men should
if they're smart.
725
01:05:32,767 --> 01:05:37,615
And fear so easily
turns to hatred.
726
01:05:37,639 --> 01:05:40,951
Better that he remember you
as you were,
727
01:05:40,975 --> 01:05:43,290
rather than
as you're meant to be.
728
01:05:54,989 --> 01:05:56,901
With all that you're showing me,
729
01:05:56,925 --> 01:05:59,138
will I one day be very powerful?
730
01:06:01,062 --> 01:06:02,940
You will be.
731
01:06:02,964 --> 01:06:06,511
Will I have mastery
and dominion over everything?
732
01:06:06,535 --> 01:06:08,380
WITCH: Nearly everything.
733
01:06:08,404 --> 01:06:12,486
We must accept our weaknesses.
734
01:06:13,741 --> 01:06:17,255
Have you one? A vulnerability?
735
01:06:17,279 --> 01:06:20,494
Only that which has taken
a part of me.
736
01:06:22,917 --> 01:06:26,098
Only that which has taken
a part of you.
737
01:06:28,022 --> 01:06:31,269
And to you it will be a poison.
738
01:06:31,293 --> 01:06:33,737
And so you must consume it,
739
01:06:33,761 --> 01:06:37,442
lest it consume you first.
740
01:06:37,466 --> 01:06:39,478
Consume poison?
741
01:06:39,502 --> 01:06:44,014
How else will one
develop an immunity?
742
01:06:44,038 --> 01:06:46,951
But the thing about poison
743
01:06:46,975 --> 01:06:49,787
is that out of everything
in the big, bad world,
744
01:06:49,811 --> 01:06:52,259
nothing tastes as sweet.
745
01:07:49,938 --> 01:07:52,082
What did you do with my brother?
746
01:07:52,106 --> 01:07:55,554
I am only moving him
out of your way.
747
01:07:55,578 --> 01:07:57,556
He's all I have in this world.
748
01:07:57,580 --> 01:08:01,228
Say that again and I will turn
your tongue into a flower,
749
01:08:02,218 --> 01:08:06,897
to remind you
of how pretty and dumb,
750
01:08:06,921 --> 01:08:10,736
temporary,
you've chosen to be.
751
01:08:12,428 --> 01:08:15,874
Or you may follow the path
that I've lit for you.
752
01:08:17,433 --> 01:08:19,212
Do whatever you want with me,
753
01:08:19,767 --> 01:08:21,581
but only if you free him.
754
01:08:23,372 --> 01:08:24,883
I could never do that.

GRETEL: But why not?
756
01:08:28,510 --> 01:08:31,757
Because that little boy
is your poison.

All that is left
is to make him delicious.

when there was anything else
I cared to do.

I envy you,

of your own experience,

(INHALES DEEPLY)

A nice balance.
768
01:09:42,050 --> 01:09:44,329
I admire the application.
769
01:09:44,353 --> 01:09:45,896
But more than anything
770
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:48,199
it leaves me curious as to why,
771
01:09:48,223 --> 01:09:49,768
why you would try
to put me to sleep
772
01:09:49,792 --> 01:09:51,835
when there is so much
to be done.
773
01:09:51,859 --> 01:09:54,006
I won't do
what you want me to do.
774
01:09:55,297 --> 01:09:56,807

how would you know my story

having to tell it to you?

01:10:15,384 --> 01:10:17,195
We were given the same gift,

that's your favorite story,

but you have been
telling it wrong.
788
01:10:49,884 --> 01:10:51,061
It's true,
789
01:10:51,085 --> 01:10:54,432
she was a most beautiful child,
790
01:10:54,456 --> 01:10:56,101
and everyone could see that.
791
01:10:56,625 --> 01:10:58,471
But on the inside,
792
01:10:59,261 --> 01:11:02,240
she was rotten to her core
793
01:11:02,264 --> 01:11:04,910
and as sweet as vinegar.
794
01:11:05,868 --> 01:11:08,380
Even I hated her,
795
01:11:08,404 --> 01:11:10,216
and I was her mother.
796

(METAL CLANGING)
797
01:11:16,612 --> 01:11:19,192
Because from me,
she took everything.
798
01:11:23,585 --> 01:11:27,030
And would have destroyed me too,
799
01:11:27,054 --> 01:11:29,669
if I didn't
get rid of her first.
800
01:11:30,793 --> 01:11:33,271
So I gave her back
to the darkness
801
01:11:33,295 --> 01:11:34,439
that had made her,
802
01:11:34,463 --> 01:11:37,243
and thought that would be
the end of it.
803
01:11:37,866 --> 01:11:39,910
But I was wrong.
804
01:11:39,934 --> 01:11:42,447
She stayed with me.
805
01:11:42,471 --> 01:11:48,720
In my thoughts, in my dreams,
attached to me like my shadow,
806
01:11:48,744 --> 01:11:54,659
promising me a taste
of the powers that she had.
807
01:11:54,683 --> 01:11:58,663
All that was required
was for me to be brave
808
01:11:58,687 --> 01:12:01,733
and to trust the darkness.
809
01:12:01,757 --> 01:12:03,301
And I was,
810
01:12:03,325 --> 01:12:05,136
and I did.
811
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:06,937
And like she had done,

I rid myself
of all other attachments.

01:20:29,664 --> 01:20:31,108
I'll help it to grow,
897
01:20:31,132 --> 01:20:33,611
and trust that I'll know
what to do with it.
898
01:20:33,635 --> 01:20:35,913
I know that the choice is mine.
899
01:20:35,937 --> 01:20:39,286
I could feed it darkness,
or give it plenty of light.
900
01:21:07,203 --> 01:21:09,015
I looked, and I saw,
901
01:21:09,571 --> 01:21:11,184
and I understood.
902
01:21:14,176 --> 01:21:17,056
The captor now gone
and her fires all put out,
903
01:21:19,315 --> 01:21:20,726
they were free to go...
904
01:21:24,652 --> 01:21:26,132
and be at peace.
905
01:21:32,228 --> 01:21:33,839
And I was free.
906
01:21:35,730 --> 01:21:37,875
To go and never look back,
907
01:21:37,899 --> 01:21:39,643
or stay to build something new
908
01:21:39,667 --> 01:21:42,481
on top of everything
that had been destroyed.
909
01:21:42,505 --> 01:21:45,016
I knew my path
would reveal itself,
910
01:21:45,040 --> 01:21:48,153
and that all was required
for me was to be brave
911
01:21:48,177 --> 01:21:49,922
and to trust myself.
912
01:22:04,592 --> 01:22:06,038
And I am brave.
913
01:22:07,329 --> 01:22:09,176
And I will trust myself.
