All language subtitles for Evil S03E04

Sister Andrea.

I'm Father Rodrigo Katagas.

I'm from the Congregatio pro
Doctrina Fidei.

Although, if you recognize
the accent,

I'm actually from Brooklyn.

12 miles from here.

This is Father Bailey,
Jonathan Tooley from

the Apostolate for
Family Consecration,

and Father Stefano,
who will be taking notes.

Sister, we've received
several complaints

of your mental
and physical decline,

and we're here to request
that you retire.

Now, there is a silent retreat
in Upstate New York

that we feel would be
a perfect fit for you.

What we need from you is
to sign this document

acknowledging your retirement.

Do you have any questions?

No.

We just need your signature
right there.

No.

Sister, I want to make clear,

this is an administrative
decision to protect the Church.

Really? You said it was
a request, I said no.

Then I misspoke.
It is not a request.

Who has complained about
my mental and physical decline?

We've promised to keep
identities confidential.

But a guest of the parish
recently received

second-degree burns
from tea you spilled.

And you've recently
been observed talking

and arguing with persons unseen.

- Now I want you to know...
- Father,

it is my right as a member
of the National Coalition

of American Nuns to insist
on an investigation

before any forced retirement.

Do you see demons, Sister?

Yes.

Is there a demon
in this room now?

Yes.

Where?

You know where.

I ask to be judged by
a three-person priestly council.

Only then may I be forced
to retire.

Is that her right?

It is.

She's also allowed
a psychological

analysis of her condition.

- I can do that.
- No.

It has to be administered
by an outside psychiatrist.

In the name of the Father,
the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Forgive me, Father,
for I have sinned.

It's been one month
since my last confession.

These are my sins.

Actually, I just have one sin.

I'm here under false pretenses.

I knew you would be the priest
hearing confessions.

- Why does it matter?
- I have written

and called the parish ten times
in the last two weeks,

and they say the assessors
are too busy

to look into my case.

This isn't really
the appropriate...

Father.

Do you know the parable
of the persistent woman?

Even the corrupt judge
eventually gave her justice

because she kept coming
and coming

and made herself an irritant.

Well, I may not be holy
or good, Father,

but I am persistent.

I'm listening.

Okay, when? Sure.

Yeah, I just need a minute
to get my stuff together, yeah.

Okay, see you soon. Bye.

- More demon hunting, Mom?
- Yes.

I just need to sharpen a stake
and buy some garlic.

Mom, Mrs. Kandering thinks
that we're lying about your job.

Okay, who's Mrs. Kandering
and what are we telling her?

She's the health teacher.

Everybody had to share
what their parents did.

So I said that Dad was
a mountain climber

and you were a demon hunter.

Okay, maybe let's just say

that Dad's a business owner
and I'm a psychologist.

Why do you want to be
boring, Mom?

No, not boring.

Just normal.

- But normal is boring.
- You don't want us to be boring.

Coming!

Hello.

- Mom!
- Who is it?

It's the guy from YouTube.

Wait, he followed us home
from the grocery store. Come on.

She'll be here in a sec.

Upstairs right now.

- Hit him, Mom. Hit him.
- What do you want?

I want an apology.

You need to get off my porch
or I'm calling the police.

No.

- First an apology.
- Kick his ass!

Lila.

You caught me unaware last time,

so let's see how you do
when we're both ready.

Oh, my God, how old are you?

You know, you have
a punchable face.

- Yeah, you should kick his ass.
- You're such an asshole.

Okay, girls, let's go
upstairs right now.

Oh, my God!

- Are you kidding me?
- Should just slam the door.

You want me gone, apologize.

- Did she do it?
- Shh!

What? What happened?

Mom apologized.

Oh, babe, I can deal with this.

You go do your homework.

Why can boys do whatever
they want, but girls can't?

- I don't think that's true.
- It is.

That guy just said
whatever he wanted

and did whatever he wanted.

Well, I was kind of wrong
to hit him before.

I don't think you were.

What's the deal? No folder?

Doing it as a favor.

Oh. Is that what we do now?

- When needed.
- Father.

- Hi. Thanks for coming.
- Hi, Jacqueline.

This is, uh, the other
assessors, uh, Kristen and Ben.

Sorry, we're in the
JFK flight path.

Hi.

You said the issue was
with your husband?

Yes, just back here.

He came back from
a long haul on March 8th,

and he just wasn't the same.

In what way?

I woke up in the middle
of the night,

and he was facing a wall,
whispering,

"Go away. Stop following me."

Oh, sleepwalking.

No. He never has before.

Jason, the people
from the Church are here.

He's-he's in the truck?

- He sleeps there now.
- Why?

He's worried about hurting me.

Hurt you how?

When I tried to wake him,
he hit me.

Jason!

Hey, babe.
I was just getting up.

I'll get you something to eat.

Can you talk to these people
for a minute?

Want to come out, Jason?

I'd rather not.

Want us to come in, then?

Is there room?

Look, it's got nothing
to do with religion.

I just...

When you're a long-haul driver,
you have good nights

and you have bad nights.

So I'm taking a month off
to recuperate.

Recuperate from...

I was on I-95, it's a route
I'd never taken before.

Mm-hmm.

It was at night, and I saw
something following me,

trying to pass.

Something dark, flying low,

going about 50 miles an hour.

Like a drone?

Well, that's what I thought at
first, but it didn't make noise

like a drone and it didn't
move like a drone.

I pulled over, but it just
stayed behind me.

I couldn't see what it was,
but it wouldn't pass.

So I kept going, and that's when
I saw someone sitting there.

Who?

I don't know. A man.
A shadow, really.

Whenever I looked right at him,
he was gone.

- Were you tired? Sleepy?
- No.

I kept driving, but that's when
I must have blacked out,

because I don't remember
the next eight hours.

- What do you mean?
- I ended up at Victoriaville,

near Montreal, and I have
no idea how I got there.

I drove 500 miles, and I have
no memory of it.

- This was on March 8th?
- Yeah.

Did you stop for food?

No. Just drove straight through.

Hmm. Then what's the Double Q?

I don't know.

The receipt here says March 8th.

You don't remember this?

- No.
- Someone wrote on it.

"Be careful. Get home safe.
Traci."

You don't remember her?

No.

So, what do you guys think?

Hmm, it sounds
like it's a drone.

What?

Look.

Hmm.

I don't know, I think it's just
a circuitry diagram,

probably from the truck's
battery warmer.

Well, why is it on a sticker?

When they change out
the circuitry,

that's how they update it.

Look.

No, I think
it's a bit different.

- No, it's not.
- What does it mean?

Why is there a sigil
on the fender of a truck?

- Okay, you know what worries me?
- What?

Everywhere we look now
we see sigils, sigils, sigils,

because that's what we want
to see.

I think it's just
a circuitry diagram.

Well, let's find out.

♪ Like we're going
somewhere... ♪

So, are you reporters
or something?

No. Why?

Because you don't look
like truckers.

We had a reporter through here
about the accidents.

What accidents?

Oh, just drivers getting tired
and running off the road.

Traci, do you know, um,
a driver named Jason Moss?

No. Who's that?

Well, you wrote on his receipt,
"Be careful. Get home safe."

Oh, I write that to everyone.

We get a lot of truckers
through here,

dazed and a bit zombiesque.

All you do is shove coffee
down their throats and

warn them to take a nap

before they hit the road.

You can pay the cashier.

Thank you.

- You know what I think, guys?
- What?

I think it's
Third Man syndrome.

- What's that?
- Happens a lot with alpinists.

They push past the level
of exhaustion,

and then they start to feel
like there's a third person

walking beside them.
It's not possession. It's just

the mind creating
its own camaraderie.

No, it's real.

- What's real?
- This stretch of road.

The Ghost Highway,
between exits 13A and 33A.

- Truckers hate it.
- Why?

People see things, hear things.

Drivers go around it these days.

I get off at 12A,
drive the mountain road,

connect back up at 34.

I wouldn't go anywhere near
exit 13A if I were you.

Just sounds like
a legend for truckers,

like a Bermuda Triangle
for truckers.

Yeah. Superstition
leading to anxiety.

Magical thinking.

Well, we're still two exits away

from 13A, so we'll
find out soon enough.

Just choose a play list.

Wait. I'm looking.

For?

For my mom's favorite song.

Aw.

There.

♪ Imagine me and you... ♪

"Happy Together" is
your mom's favorite song?

So, we bought this used car,

and there was a CD stuck in it,

so no matter where we went,
this song played.

♪ So happy together... ♪

Here we go!

♪ I can't see me ♪

♪ Lovin' nobody but you ♪

♪ For all my life ♪

♪ When you're with me, baby ♪

♪ The skies'll be blue ♪

- ♪ For all my life... ♪
- One more exit.

You seem better, Ben. We were
worried about you last week.

Yeah, well, uh,

my sister, she...
took me to some

science club, and they
solved some things for me.

What things?

The angel from the video
last year.

You know, the-the girl
that was dead for 177 minutes.

- Yeah?
- So,

they showed me that it's an app.

You can break into somebody's
Bluetooth transmission

and give them a guardian angel

in their photos.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I can send a guardian angel
to your phone.

♪ For all my life... ♪

You wanted it to be real.

♪ You and me,
no matter how they toss... ♪

No. I just...

What was that?

Come out.

The demon will rise.

You don't need to take any...

- We should record it.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

They come
to our cities, they take

our jobs.

Turn it down.

Can't. It's just-just playing.

Look.

Defund that and
defund this and defund that.

Looking out.

I see it.

It's a short slide to hell, Ben,

and that's where
they all belong.

Ben?

It's just a drone.

It's the electrical system.

Okay,

you need to pull over right now.

It's right behind us.

- Steering wheel's frozen.
- What?

Fuck!

It's gone.

Someone's fucking with us.

Where are you going?

I'm gonna go check
the electrical system.

A car doesn't just
shut down like that.

No, no, no, no, no.
Ben, that's literally

the start
of a hundred horror movies.

I'll be right back.

What?

- Holy fuck!
- Pop the hood.

Pop the hood.

I think the battery cable
is loose.

Shine the light right here.

Can we make this fast, please?

Okay.

Yeah, sh-shine the,
shine the light closer.

Yeah.

What?

K-Keep the light on it.

Yeah, above the...
Yeah, yeah, right there.

When the cable is loose,
it makes the radio auto-tune

- and everything fritz.
- Ben, let's talk in the car.

So, the GPS depends
on radio waves,

and something out here
is disrupting them.

That's why the radio frequency
keeps going in and out.

Okay, great. Can we just go?

What was that?

I don't know.

Something's trying to scare us.

Good afternoon. I have

been asked by the archdiocese

to offer my professional opinion

on whether you are showing signs
of early onset dementia,

possibly as a result
of Lewy body.

Do you understand?
Do you know what that is?

A protein that builds
in the brain

that can result
in hallucinations.

Yes.

I understand you asked
for me to consult.

May I ask why?

You've seen a demon.

Mm.

Mm, no. You know,
I don't know what I saw.

You saw a demon.

Do you have problems
with short-term memory, Sister?

No.

Are these hallucinations visual,

auditory, or tactile?

They are not hallucinations.

Understood. Are your... visions

visual, auditory, or tactile?

- They are all three.
- Could they be misperceptions?

Could you be mis-seeing
things around you?

No.

How often
do you see these demons?

Once a week, once a month?

Once an hour.

Are you seeing demons now?

No.

When did you first see...

first have a vision?

When I was 15.

I was playing the piano,
the heavenly chords.

♪ E, C, D, G, B ♪

♪ With the right ♪

♪ A, F, G, C, E ♪

♪ With the left. ♪

And a presence materialized.

A demon?

No. St. Bernadette,

holding a vase with roses.

And every time I hit the chords,
she appeared,

and then she would fade
with the notes.

That's when I gave
myself to Christ.

That was the day.

Harder! Don't just stand there.

What are you doing?

Hey!

Where's my "Hello, Mom"?

Hello, Mom!

They found a new game online.
Bumblebee something.

- Thank you for picking them up.
- Yeah, no problem.

How's the, uh,
how's the new room coming?

Oh, it is slow. How's work?

It is, uh...
challenging.

I'm proud of you, Mom, for
starting a new career like that.

Aw, thank you.

Call me if you need anything.

- Yeah.
- Okay.

Thank you.

Uh, actually, Mom.

- Um...
- Mm-hmm?

How did you encourage me

to be independent?

- How did I encourage you?
- Yeah.

I don't know.
You said you wanted to climb,

so I took you to climb.

And you weren't worried
about safety or...?

W-Well, I had a feeling
that whatever I wanted,

you would do the opposite,

so I never told you
what I wanted.

And what about boys?

Oh, now, that's the thing
I'm the most proud of

because you broke
a lot of hearts

but never had your heart broken.

And how did you
make that happen?

Set an example.

A boy doesn't show up on time,
you break up with him.

A boy doesn't return a call
in a half an hour,

guess what happens, out of here.

Don't let a boy define you.
You define them.

Did the girls say anything about
this man coming to the house?

No. What happened?

Oh, nothing.

- Thank you.
- Sure.

- Say hi to Andy for me.
- I will.

That was on the radio?

Self-tuning, and I couldn't
turn it down.

Well, it is creepy.

Good. Well, thanks.
I'm glad I had you over.

Shortwave radio frequencies
use the atmosphere

like a bounce board to deflect
radio waves to the ground.

- Mm-hmm.
- It's a way of getting

over obstacles
like trees and mountains.

Okay, so you're saying
that it's a collision

of shortwave frequencies?

That's my guess.

Okay, what about this?

It's a short slide to hell,

Ben, and that's
where they all belong.

How would it know my name?

You're guessing
it knows your name.

We believe in empiricism, right?

Yeah. I mean, I do.

I don't know
what you believe in.

I believe in reality,
and reality

is sometimes coincidental.

Okay, so you're just saying
it's just a coincidence

- that this voice knew my name?
- Yes.

Or...?

Go ahead.

Are there shortwave radio freaks

who can turn a cell phone
into a broadcasting phone?

- Keep talking.
- They would have

heard my name
being spoken in the car.

You're saying someone hacked
the near-field communication

- feature on your phone?
- Yeah.

And listened in.

They would have to be
very close.

- How close?
- 30, 40 yards.

There's a way to reverse-hack.

I know. I'm gonna need to borrow
some equipment.

Hello?

Hello?

Father, it's Jacqueline Moss.

I'm so sorry to call late,
but Jason's gone.

Uh... Uh, what do you mean gone?

He took off in his truck.
He didn't say anything.

Then, about ten minutes ago,
he called me.

He was terrified.

He said he hit
something in the road,

but there was nothing there.

He thinks I'm right,
he's possessed.

Then the phone went dead, and I

can't get him back.

Did you call the police?

No. The police
will write him up,

and it'd get back to his boss.

Father, please help me.

This is Jason.

Leave a message after the beep.

Jason, uh, it's David,
Father David.

Your wife is worried. I'm...

driving down 95 looking...

Father, you okay?

I've never seen anything like...

I-It was a saint.

Or an angel.

Man or woman?

Woman.

In a blue robe.

Was she carrying anything?

A sword.

A long sword.

But you've seen visions
of angels before?

No.
Not like this.

Not so real.

Did she say anything?

No.

This is good, David.

It didn't feel good.

Felt terrifying.

I told you,
once you took your orders,

demons become more dangerous.

When they bite you,
they rip flesh.

The same is true of the holy.

Angels and saints
can protect you.

You think this was sent
to protect me?

You said the demon disappeared
when she arrived.

God has blessed you.

Sister,

this makes me...

I am not a holy person.

I fail all the time.

The past few weeks,

I've had temptations
of the flesh.

And you're resisting them.

That's why God is helping you.

But is He?

"Is He?"

What are you asking?

How do you know
it's God that's helping you

and not someone

or something else?

Or just your mind?

Aren't we all trapped
in our minds?

Who is it?

Sister?

Yes, one moment, please.

What was that about?

A psychiatric session.

Why?

It's complicated.

Andy?

Andy, are you there?

Hey, babe. How are you?

- Fine.
- Are you? ...Girls?

Oh, you keep breaking up.

Getting ready to head out
this morning.

In fact, I have to rush.

- Okay.
- How are the girls?

Um, yeah. Good, I guess.

That guy
from the-the grocery store?

You know, the one I hit?

He came to the house
wanting an apology,

and the girls were egging me on
to hit him again.

Okay. What did you do?

Well, I semi-apologized,

and then he left.

But I'm just not sure
what's right.

Andy, did you hear that?

I did. I don't know what to say.

Well, there's this theory

about puberty.

Um, girls start off
really strong and independent,

and then
right around 13, 14 years old,

they start deferring to boys,

and then they lose
their... spark.

And I just want to fight that.
But I also

don't want to lose control
like before.

So, what do you think?

Kristen, I'm sorry,
they're calling me.

Let's talk about this later.
On Thursday.

Look, it's over, bitch.

♪ Got a lot of friends,
and they all bad... ♪

Can you believe
I used to be shy?

I would never dance
in front of people.

But then I saw that interview.

You know the one
I'm talking about.

Oprah and Beyoncé.

Goddess times two.

And Beyoncé was saying

whenever she needed
to overcome her fear

and feel powerful,

she would become Sasha Fierce.

Sasha Fierce would take over,
and then she could do

all the things
she really wanted to do.

Now, that's
a bad ass goddess move.

♪ Since you at the bottom,
that's why you're mad. ♪

Mrs. Bouchard, can we talk?

Hello?

Yeah, I'll be right down!

What do you need, Mr. Pete?

Pete's fine, ma'am.

I was just talking
with my demolition team,

and we'll need your second check

before starting in
on the second phase.

Why?

Everything costs a bit more
than we expected,

so if you could get me
the second check...

No.

I'm afraid so, ma'am.

Is your husband here?

No.

Well, I talked to him
a few weeks ago,

and we agreed
the second check was necessary

before the plumbing work, so...

I'm sorry.

Well, I understand
why you're sorry.

But you're not getting
your second check.

And you did not talk
to my husband.

I did, ma'am.

And if I don't get my check,

I can't do the work.

Oh. Well, that's unfortunate.

Have a nice day.

Wait, ma'am.

I already poured the concrete,
and I've put in the work,

- and you need to pay me for it.
- No, all I need to do

- is look for a new contractor.
- Wait.

Then I'll tear down
the work I've done.

Could you repeat that
in about one minute?

- What?
- Girls, we're back here!

I didn't quite hear
what you said.

Could you repeat it?

I said if you're not paying me
my second check,

I'll rip down
the work I've done.

Good.

Then I'll help you.

Hey, don't do that.
Don't...

You're only hurting yourself.
Where is your husband?

My husband's in the Himalayas.

And I'm not hurting myself,
I'm hurting you,

'cause I haven't paid for this
and it's fun to destroy

something I haven't paid for.

Stop! Okay, wait.

We'll talk about delivery
of the second check.

After the plumbing,
like we agreed.

It wasn't after.

Okay, okay, after the plumbing.

Just put that down, okay?

Lynn, I need you to watch
your sisters tonight.

Mama's gonna hunt a demon
on the Ghost Highway.

- Hey.
- Hey.

So this has a range of about
a quarter of a mile,

so we'll have to get close
to the source

and then just keep it in range.

- Hey.
- Hey.

You're dressed tough.

I am tough.

Well, let's get this stuff
down to the car.

I'll drive.

Anything yet?

No, but we're not in the zone.

Coming up.

- Radio on or off?
- Uh, let's keep it off.

See if our hacker
turns it on.

If we don't stop them,

the America we know and love
will cease to exist.

They want to burn the flag.

They want to tear down
our monuments...

- Got it.
- What?

18.9 hertz.
The ghost frequency.

Is that really what it's called?

Yeah, 18.9 hertz is
the infrasound.

It's below human hearing,

but it can cause anxiety,
fear, paranoia,

in some cases delusions.

- Hallucinations?
- Sure, yeah.

18.9 causes the lens
in the eyeball to vibrate

in resonance with
the sound waves,

causing optical illusions.

Horror movies, they use it
all the time

just to freak audiences out.

Where is it coming from?

- Do you have a direction?
- Getting warmer.

Okay, it's behind us.

They want
to take away your freedoms.

Okay, slow down, but don't
hit your brake lights.

Go ahead and try to
take my firearm, I dare...

Slower.

I bind you with chains of iron.

Wakes us
from the demon of destruction!

There. 50 yards back.

Okay, slower, slower.

In your heart,
splitting your heart open.

I saw the beast
rise up out of the sea...

- It's turning.
- It's making a U-turn.

Okay, hold on.

Whoo!

You okay?

Are you kidding me?
I'm perfect.

Okay, I'm still getting
something.

It's still broadcasting.

There, straight ahead.

Scream for your mommy!

It's veering off.

Where to?

It's got to be around here
somewhere

'cause it's still broadcasting.

Skid marks.

Okay.

What do you guys think?

Well, it's got to be
around here somewhere

because I'm still
getting static.

He's laying low.

I can still hear
the transmission static.

He knows we're onto him.

There!

Holy fuck.

It's warm.

- So what do you want to do?
- Call the cops.

I don't think
that's a circuitry diagram.

Uh, Kristen, what are you doing?

Hey, what are you doing?! Hey!

Fuckers, that's my stuff. Stop!

Nope. Not until you stop
scaring truckers on I-95.

Then just tell me to stop
and I-I'll stop.

Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait!

People were talking online
about the Ghost Highway.

- That's all.
- Oh, my God.

It's fucking clout-chasing.

Really? Does nobody have
any real motives anymore?

No one does anything
for sex or money.

It's just clout-chasing?!

Assholes.

You know, I could just
buy new equipment

- and transmit again.
- Great.

Good. She'll be back.

Father, this is
a confidential matter.

If you don't mind
waiting outside...

I'd rather stay. Father.

We're discussing
very sensitive matters.

Yes, and I'd rather he stay,
too, Father.

Fine.

We received a report from
the psychiatrist Dr. Boggs,

- and he agrees...
- What is this?

Excuse me.

What is this meeting?

What is the designation
of this gathering?

The Council
of Heretical Practices.

I see.

Does the Church believe
that it's heretical

when a nun sees an angel
or a demon?

No.

Then why are we here?

- Dr. Kurt Boggs?
- Uh, yes, sir... Father.

You interviewed Sister Andrea
on two occasions?

Yes.

And she admitted to seeing
and talking to demons?

Yes.

And did she also admit
to seeing a demon

whispering to the cardinal?

Yes, uh,
at a recent midnight mass

she s-saw a demon
consulting with him.

Thank you, Doctor. You can go.

Yes, Sister?

Boop.

This council takes it
as axiomatic

that witnessing His Eminence

consorting with a demon
is heretical.

Then I ask
for an ecclesiastical tribunal

of the first instance
to defend her.

You'll need a priest
to defend her.

Good thing I am one.

David?

- Mr. LeConte.
- Good to see you.

I-I didn't ask you to go
through my drawers.

And the Vatican didn't ask you
to copy their documents.

Is that why you're here?

- To take them back?
- No.

You're a friend
of the Vatican now.

That comes with certain
privileges and responsibilities.

So, here.

You can have the honors.

What honors?

Eliminating a demonic family.

Go ahead.

What are you talking about?

The drone operator
of your Ghost Highway,

that was Russ Owlman,
successor to this sigil.

Principiculus
Demoniacarum Trans mission um.

The guy in the pickup truck?

Well, not one of the greater
demonic houses,

but still, a win is a win.

We didn't eliminate him.

We destroyed his equipment,
that's all.

No. He shot himself
in the head after you left.

How do you know?

We followed you.

Go ahead.

Now is the time
to get outraged.

We have been following you
ever since you let

that medical student
cannibalize his cadaver.

This house would have been
vanquished

if you had stopped him.

Instead, it continues on.

But here.

Cross off this sigil.

Your drone guy is gone.

He didn't shoot himself
in the head.

You killed him.

David, we're not killers.

- I don't believe you.
- That is your right.

But you saw that he had
a gun in his truck, right?

All we did was dispose
of the body

before a successor
could cannibalize him,

and now his house is gone.

Over the centuries,
we have eliminated

this house and this house.

All of these,

and one more.

There.

What happens when you stop
all the demonic houses?

Peace on earth.
