All language subtitles for Evil S02E13

Why did the apostles leave
bishops as their successors?

In order that the Gospel might
be preserved in the Church.

What does divine economy
refer to?

The common work of the Trinity.

Definite, certain, fixed?

Certus, certa, certum.

-To seek, to ask?
-Quaero,

quaerere, quaesivi, quaesitam.

What's the difference
between temptation and sin?

Temptation is
a strong suggestion to sin

coming from the Devil
or our fallen state.

Sin is knowingly breaking
the law of God.

Can temptation always
be resisted?

Yes. God will not allow us to be
tempted beyond our strength.

Let's discuss your sermon
on race.

On God's love.

My apologies.

Is there any place for
racial politics in the Church?

There is.
The Holy Father stated,

"We cannot tolerate
or turn a blind eye

"to racism
or exclusion in any form

yet claim to defend the
sacredness of every human life."

Just one more interrogator.

Hello, David.

Renee.

Sorry to do it this way, but I
just got this case last minute.

Understood.

As the Church's lawyer,
I've been asked to interview

prospective priests for
potential liability concerns,

so please answer
as honestly as you're able.

Certainly.

Do you know of any potential
past financial indiscretions

that might reflect poorly
on the Church?

No.

Do you know of any potential
past sexual indiscretions

that might reflect poorly
on the Church?

Before you answer,
let me clarify.

The Church is not asking

about all past financial
or sexual dealings,

merely those
that might place the Church

in a potential
litigious position.

Then the answer is... no.

Good.

Before you joined the seminary,

you were in a program
for sexual addiction?

I was.

Have you needed
to return to this program?

No.

How are you?

Good.

I wasn't expecting to see you.

Expecting... this.

I wasn't expecting it, either.

The monsignor called me in
last minute.

Can I ask you something, David?

Are you doing this for yourself
or for my sister?

Both.

Make sure you're doing it
for yourself, only for yourself.

The life is too hard.

They told me
I have to keep it brief.

You're due for an appointment?

I'll miss you.

And I'll miss you.

Ah, here is Father David now.

Hello, Father.

Hello, my children.

I'm still three days away,
but thank you.

Hi. I'm sorry I'm late.
David Acosta.

-Oh, uh, Mitch Otterbean.

Hell Week, primal scream.

Uh, do you want
to go inside, Mitch?

No, no, I'd r...
Um, out here is better.

The monsignor said
your parents think

you're under demonic attack?

My parents can be, um,
a bit melodramatic.

But something's--
I-I don't know-- haunting me?

I don't mean that literally.

Or maybe I do.
I don't... I don't know.

-Just tell us what's going on.
-Okay.

Um, I'm a vegetarian,
ever since I was 14,

but, um, a few weeks ago,

my parents were having
a barbecue for my Aunt Kimmi,

and I ate a whole steak,
downed it.

A raw one.

And then I-I immediately
grabbed another.

I-I couldn't stop myself,
and this feeling

hasn't stopped, and right now
my body is screaming out for it.

Raw meat?
-Yeah.

All right, so you're studying
day and night.

You know, you're probably eating
nothing or maybe junk food?

Your body needs enzymes, right?

That's why
you want the raw meat.

Your body is trying
to balance the enzyme intake.

But it's... it's not just that.

It's these urges.

Um...

Um, it's not just meat anymore.

It's...

I-I was dissecting a cadaver
in Clinical Practicum,

when I got this... reaction.

Which was?

I started to salivate.

For the body?

-But you didn't act on it?
-No.

And I won't.

But it's getting harder
and harder because...

I come back from class
with this formaldehyde

and rotting flesh smell,
and it's making me dream.

Dream? What are you dreaming?

That I'm running through
Old Keening.

What's that?

Um, an old psych ward
behind here-- this building.

They closed it down years ago.

Something's chasing me
through the halls.

Something dark.

And I can't turn around, 'cause
I know it'll catch me if I do.

I just run.

Each time I dream about it,
it's closer and closer.

Somehow I just know if it
catches me, I'll give in to it.

So, how long have you two
been roommates?

-The beginning of the year.

Uh, what's that thing?

Oh, this? Oh, it's a...
it's a particle counter.

It just, uh, looks
for sources of toxicity.

What's with these?

Oh. Zip ties.

Mitch got them
from an army surplus store.

-He started using them
at night.
-For?

Zip-tying himself to his bed?

Why?

So he doesn't try to bite me.

Okay, so this urge
of his-- this...

cannibalism--
is it worse at night?

No. I actually think it's worse

when he gets back
from practicum.

Where's that?

Anything?

No, not yet.

No asbestos, no CCA.

How about you?
Any demons yet, Father?

So you're gonna do this
all the time now?

-Call me "Father"?

Yeah, yeah.
Hey, this is too much fun.

Tell me, how do you plan

to handle
this whole celibacy thing?

Delicately.

Hey, look, you call me up
with a minute's notice,

and I will come over
and drive you down to Mexico

so you don't have
to become a priest.

Good to know.

You're coming tonight, right?

What's tonight?

: It is
your ordination bachelor party

with Kristen and me.

We are going to get you drunk.

Hey.

That's blood, right?

Yeah, maybe.

All right.

You know,
very few people know this,

but this was in the original
Wizard of Oz,

instead
of the yellow brick road.

What do you think?

I think if there's blood,
someone might be hurt.

Yeah, this is definitely
a good idea.

Probably just
Hell Week stuff, right?

"3:00 a.m. haunt."

After the party?

Is that you, Father Acosta?

Me and beer.

Here, drink up.

-I'm two ahead.
-I still have to drive.

Well...

Surprise!

Oh, oh, so this is the, uh,
party for just the three of us?

-Well, we thought
you secretly wanted everyone.
-Ah.

-Don't worry.
I will not make a speech.
-Thank you.

-Here's to Father Acosta!
-Thank you!

Have you seen the cake?

So...

...can I talk to you?

Who are you?

Oh, I'm a friend of the team.
Dr. Boggs?

-Okay.
-Um,

I saw something
at-at their last exorcism,

and I need to talk to someone
who won't laugh at me.

Why don't you think
I'll laugh at you?

Because you believe
in demons, right?

We want to go on the balcony.

No, no, no, no.
You will kill yourself.

-All right, what do I care?
Sure. Go.

-That would never happen...
-Ugh!

That's not very nice.
You shouldcare.

Well, I'm not very nice.
You haven't noticed that by now?

-No, not really.
-What's that?

Uh, that?

-Nothing. You don't...
you don't want to know.
-Yes, we do.

-You have to tell us...

That's the rule, Ben.
-It's nothing. It's nothing.

It's for ghosts when I sleep.

-What?
-Ben, do you have footage?

Do you have pictures?
Please, can we see, Ben?

-You won't sleep at night.
-Come on.

-All right, okay, I'll tell you.

I'll tell you if you stop
jumping on my bed.

Come on. Move over.

You really want to know?

-Yeah.
-Yes.

-Sometimes late at night...
-Yeah.

-...I get visited...
-Mm-hmm.

-...by ghosts!
-Okay. Okay.
-Ben!

-All right, my work here's done.
-Sorry.

We couldn't let
this moment pass.

Told you
you wouldn't sleep at night.

It's okay.
It's good to see everybody.

-Mm-hmm.
-Your kids seem happy.

Oh, yeah.
They don't get out much.

Are you okay, David?

Is it hard, the countdown?

No, I just... My mind runs
through its usual doubts.

Mm-hmm. Well, you always seem
to do the right thing, so...

-Do I?
-Oh, yeah.

Much more than I do.

I just, um...

Nothing.

-Oh, my God. My kids.

I examined every second
of that moment.

It-it was...
There was no hallucination,

no trick of the light.

There was something there.

Do you believe
in God the Father?

I believe in what I see.

So what you saw was a figure,
a scary thing,

but a part of your mind wanted

to say it was, what,
a trick of the light

or your overactive mind
creating fears?

-Yeah-huh.
-Because you've devoted
your life

to the empirical, and when
the empirical confuses you,

you have
to create psychologically

or scientifically-approved
explanations for it.

But what if there was
no psychological explanation?

That's why I'm asking you.

No, you're asking me
because you want me

to say what I'm about to say.

Stop creating fictions
to avoid God.

That's the bottom line.

So this demon walked up to you,
and your mind wants

to make it anything but a demon,

because if there were a demon,
life would be terrifying.

Everything you based your life
on would be wrong.

You ask me what to do.

If you're serious--
you see that man over there?

That's Monsignor Korecki.

You go up to him right now
and you say,

"I want to be baptized.
I want God to forgive me."

Because if you don't,

that demon that you saw

will drag you into hell
when you die.

Oh, yes.

Leland. How's he doing?

Oh, much better.

Now that your exorcist
cured him.

-Oh.

In fact, he was talking
about volunteering

in some kind of
overseer position at the Church.

Yes, that's right.

Though I know
your daughter Kristen

has mixed feelings about it.

Once they've worked together
for a while,

I'm sure everything will be
just fine between them.

Mitch said he had nightmares
about this place.

Being chased down the halls

by something dark
that he never sees.

Okay, so a dark thing.

Or any evidence
of demonic infestation.

Sure, but that doesn't
necessarily mean...

Guys?

Wine.

:
It's a prank.

Taste it. See if it's wine.

I don't want to taste it.
You taste it.

You're the one who said
it smells like wine, not me.

Hold on. You're the one
so sure it's a prank.

-Why don't you taste it?
-Well, you didn't
have any problems

dipping your finger in it,

should taste it,

Okay, let me just finish
the psychological evaluation,

and let's stop playing
this stupid ghost hunter game.

Okay, David?

All right?

-David?!
-Hello?!

David, are you okay?

-What's wrong?
-: I don't know.

I don't know what that was.

Hey, you want to go home?

Let's go.

You've had visions
of evil before?

But this was the first time

it didn't feel like a vision.

It was there.

It was real.

David, you have a gift.

Maybe one of a hundred million
have a similar gift.

God opens a door
for us to truly see.

And through that door flies
pain and beauty,

ugliness and evil.

Now comes the hard part.

What do you mean?

The closer I got
to receiving my orders,

the more real my visions became.

They were no longer dioramas.

They were things
that could hurt me.

And I think
the same things will come

with your ordination.

Are you saying
what I saw was real?

They were always real.

The closer you are to God,

the more good and evil
has corporeal presence.

It can hurt me?

Yes.

Has anything hurt you?

Yes.

What?

This is from last week.

What was that?

A tail.

Oh, my God.

Why am I doing this?

I wanted things to be normal.

This is crazy.

No. David, normal life is crazy.

This is how things really are.

David.

David!

-I'm not smelling anything.
-Yeah, so,

I didn't either,
but my daughter said

she smelled
rotting flesh on me.

-Wow.
-Yeah.

I was thinking
of Cotard's Delusion,

but it's just a smell,
not a visual.

It might have to do
with how much I deal with God

and hell and death
and everything else in my job,

but I think I smell it, too.

Uh-huh.

Is your back hurting?

Just a bit. Just...

Stupid thing!

You think with all the
computer chips we've invented,

we could create
a back-warmer that works.

I've got a good chiropractor
if you want.

Oh, no. My wife suggested
I take a break.

Write my book,

stop seeing patients
for a while.

Really?

Yeah. Just for two months.

Probably just a midlife crisis.
I don't know.

:
Maybe I should buy a sports car.

Oh, I look at 'em online
and just scroll.

Ho-Hold. Sorry.
Uh... you're leaving?

Oh, it's just for two months.

I'll be back, I promise.

I need to figure out
what I'm about.

I'll offer you a referral
in the meantime.

Um... some advice, Kristen.

-Yeah?
-I don't know if you realize

how much you're still suffering
from the trauma

of... your encounter.

-The killing.
-Oh, please, Kurt. I'm fine.

No, I don't think you are.

This trauma can come out
in various ways.

Even this-this smell
your daughter is smelling.

Things are not yet right
in your world, Kristen.

You need to deal with it.

I'll see you in two months.

You believe there is evidence
of diabolical infestation?

Definitely.
I think we should conduct

a location-based exorcism now.

-Tonight.
-With Gregory?

No.

He's an idiot.

You want to do it?

Yes. This can't wait, Monsignor.

Okay, this is what I ask first.

I need one last psychological
interview with a videotape

-of the subject
requesting an exorcism.

Sorry. This is Mitch's roommate.

Hey, Luke. What's up?

You told me to call
if anything happened.

Yeah. What happened?

Mitch chewed
through his zip ties.

He was heading
toward Keening Hall.

No! Stop!

No! Damn it, no!

:
No!

Mitch?

I don't...
I don't want to do this!

-I don't.
-Mitch, you don't have to.

Come on, just step away.

You don't understand!
It wants me to!

-He wants me to!
Who? Who wants you
to do this?

Him!

-Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

-Calm down.

It's okay.

David.

David is not yours.

He is protected by Jesus,
by the Holy Ghost.

Kanite gari menafisiti mayeti...

Most vile spirit,

in the name of Jesus,
get out and flee from David,

-a creature of God.

You will not hurt David!
You will not hurt David!

-You will not... hurt... David!

Why do you think
it happened, Mitch?

I don't... I don't know.

-Did you know the man,
the-the corpse?
-No.

What does this symbol
on his head mean to you?

Nothing.

Okay.
The Church needs you to say

you want an exorcism
in order to perform one.

Are you... are you willing
to do that?

-Yes, definitely. Hold on.

-That's probably Luke.
-Sure.

Hello, Mitch.

Leland Townsend.
The monsignor sent me.

You're kidding.

Kristen, hi. How's it going?

-Get out of here, Leland.
-No, Kristen. I'm sorry,

but the Church wants me
to observe your questioning.

-Like hell!
-Kind of an impolite way
to put it.

Sorry, Mitch. Church politics.

Would you excuse us
for just a second?

Get the fuck out of here!

Not happening, Kristen.

I know you want
to escape supervision,

but the three of you
have been working

without a net for a long time.

Oh, that's right.
Call your daddy.

-Yeah.
-Monsignor...

I agree. I have Leland Townsend
on the line.

He says your psychologist is
keeping him from an assessment?

No, no. He is keeping her
from doing

a psychological assessment, from
getting the permission we need.

Leland, I'm putting you
on speaker.

Kristen, I'm putting you
on speaker.

-Okay. What is the issue?
The issue is

that Mitch is in a very
vulnerable place right now...

I'm just trying
to ask a few questions

-at this new assessment...
-Wait, wait, wait.

Stop, stop! I need you all
to stop, stop.

I-I want you both
to work together.

No. Monsignor, that's not how
this works. She is...

I'm not working
with a psychopath.

Couldn't we just disagree

without calling
each other names?

We're all working
toward the same goal.

Oh, my God. This is a nightmare.

Hey, hey, stop that. Monsignor,

-Kristen just threw a shoe
at me.
-She what?

Ow! She threw her other shoe
at my side.

This is not
how colleagues work.

-Oh, my God. What a liar.
Okay, Ms. Bouchard,

I need you
to let Leland do his work.

-No, Monsignor!
-David, you should concentrate

on your ordination
and let me handle this.

Now, Ms. Bouchard,
please return to the parish.

Thank you, Monsignor.
I'll get back to work right now.

So this was your plan all along?

Fake the need for an exorcism

so you could win the confidence
of the Church?

I gave you an opportunity
to work with me, Kristen.

Now, can I get copies
of your notes?

What?

Are you all right, Kristen?

You seem a little bit uneven.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

All right. Throw it at me.

-I deserve...

Ow. You think
that's gonna stop me?

No. It's just gonna
make me feel good.

Go get yourself some help,
Kristen.

This is me with help, Leland.

Oh.

Oh, here it is.

This was on the cadaver
that someone tried

-to cannibalize last night.
-That's the word.

"Cannibalize." That's it.

What?
-Oh, God.

Sister?

This is a map
of 60 demonic houses,

all houses of Satan,
going back 60 decades.

-Okay.
-They're like family crests.

And each house needs to assure
its line of succession.

Before the master
of one house dies,

he must guarantee his successor.

How does he or she do that?

He needs to be consumed. Eaten.

Oh, but you're missing
the point, Mitch.

There's nothing forbidden
about cannibalism

as long as it's not cannibalism
of a living thing.

-Are-are you serious?
-Yes.

Look at the rites
of the Catholic Church.

:
Eating the body,
drinking the blood.

There's nothing wrong
with imitating

the holiest
of Catholic sacraments.

Lexis, answer me.

Promise you won't be mad?

I'm only gonna be mad

He told me not to tell you

because it would only

No, but I want

-No, I want to watch Scarface.
-Yes, we are!

Oh, my God.
Mom won't let us

It's just
as bad as tigers.

We're not watching Scarface,

and we're not watching tigers,

to get somebody else, Kristen?

-I can get one
of the other priests.
-No.

-I...
-It's okay.

What-Whatever it was,
God forgives.

I... I killed a man.
I-I-I did. I...

Orson LeRoux.
I-I killed him. I...

He was threatening
my-my-my children,

my girls, so-so I killed him.

And I got away with it.

I got away with it.

The cops-- they knew me,
and they just let me go.

-Kristen?

Is all this true?

Yes.

And are you sorry?
Are you truly sorry?

I am so sorry.
I don't want to...

I don't want to do it again.

Kristen, do you remember
the acts of contrition?

No.

Repeat after me.

O my God, I am heartily sorry

for having offended Thee.

O my God, I am heartily sorry
for having offended Thee.

I detest all my sins because
of thy just punishments.

I detest all my sins... my sins
because of thy just punishments.

I firmly resolve
with the help of Thy grace

to sin no more and to avoid
the near occasion of sin.

I firmly resolve to sin no more

and to avoid the near occasion
of sin.

-Amen.
-Amen.

Through the ministry
of the Church,

may God give you pardon
and peace.

I absolve you from your sins

in the name of the Father
and of the Son

and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Kristen.

I can't show my face.

Yes, you can.

No, I'm ashamed.

Not anymore.

It's okay. Shh...

It's over.

It's over.

Hmm?
