All language subtitles for The Snoop Sisters S01E03 The Devil Made Me Do It

You are looking at one of the oldest symbols of one of the oldest arts in the world, witchcraft.

I need to see it.

My name is Dave.

This covenant ain't fooling around.

And whatever they want from you, they're willing to kill for.

Yes?

Miss Snoop?

Miss Ernesto Snoop?

You're a disciple?

No. I'm a witch.

Tonight, Helen Hayes and Mildred Knappwick star as the Snoop Sisters.

The new

ski special from Sun Valley now to some barking at gate 13.

Great.

And Estes Planes on time.

The whole week in Sun Valley.

The research on a skiing book writers really know how to live.

What? I get on skis. Now let's see. Gate 10, flight 8, gate 10, flight 8.

Wasn't the other way around.

Don't worry, I'll just ask some fun.

Never mind, we found it.

People pay for that?

Well, it seems like a very short trip.

Oh, David, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed the flight.

Oh, me too, but I'm afraid I really wore your ear off.

I got more information about skiing from you than in a whole week at the lodge.

Oh, there's my sister, G.

Oh, come on, I want you to meet her.

I love you.

And this stuff!

Oh, you look marvelous.

Is that on the mountain slope, huh?

No, Barney. Champagne at 30,000 feet.

I'm watching this.

Oh, that's awesome.

Oh, come on, you see, you look so rested.

Are you ready for it?

Yes!

My luggage.

This thing, you're only going to wait.

You can't hide this one too, no, well.

There's the red one, that's the first one.

And then you gotta get the glue one right after that.

Oh, good boy, are we luck at my lucky? Come on.

Hey, mister, I thought you were supposed to be getting my bags.

No!

He's dead!

The murder weapon was definitely a knife of some kind.

Horrible, simply awful.

Yeah, one minute you're sitting next to a guy in an airplane,

the next minute he's sliding down a bag, he'd shoot wrapped in a garment bag.

Weird.

Very good.

And there was no identification?

No wallet, nothing.

And the beard he was wearing, it was false, pasted on.

Oh!

Could you have had any facial disfigurements to hide, anything like that?

No, no, no.

Maybe the obvious thing.

Very obvious?

For whatever reason, he was a man who didn't want to be recognized.

Whoever he is.

You're saying that David do wears a false name?

Pretty good bet.

We're running a full check, of course, but so far we've heard from a couple of sources,

Social Security, DMV, and credit files.

All negative.

Enernested.

On the plane.

What did you two talk about?

Skiing mostly, he was very knowledgeable on the subject.

Oh, and did he seem, uh, worried about anything troubled?

There was a moment.

Uh, yes, oh, I've been so upset, I forgot about it until now.

Still don't know if it means anything.

Oh, well, try me, anything, I'll help.

An updraft caught our plane.

Oh, you know the airline should do something about that.

It spilled all our wine, made a terrible mess.

Uh, the stewardess was at the rear of the plane, and David went back to Fetchur.

And when he returned, he was very pale, looked quite disturbed.

I remember I asked him if he was all right.

What did he say?

Oh, he said it was fine, but...

You didn't believe him?

Well, it came awfully hard.

Well, I can think of one possible reason.

He'd seen someone, someone he feared.

Turned out he had a pretty good reason.

Well, try not to think about it.

Go home, get a good night's rest.

We should know a lot more about it tomorrow after we get the fingerprint check.

Steve, when you will phone us when you find out anything new, won't you?

Of course.

Oh, he was such a nice young man, so gentle.

You think he couldn't possibly have anatomy in the world.

Hmm.

Need some help?

Need some help?

No, no, no, no.

I'm setting day.

Yes, I thought a little tiddly might go well.

I do like your style.

Did I hear the phone ring?

Mm-hmm.

Well, Stephen, he asked me to tell you that more of his sources had reported in.

Afraid David DeWear is a false name.

I see.

What a perfectly marvelous piece.

You didn't mention buying jewelry, dear?

I didn't buy any.

I've never seen you wear this.

I never saw that before.

Never, really.

Most unusual locket I've ever seen.

Locket.

I've never seen you wear this.

I never saw that before.

Never.

Really?

Most unusual locket I've ever seen.

Locket.

I'm not quite correct, dear.

Amulet would be the word.

Look at those markings, odd.

What do they mean?

Gee, you are looking at one of the oldest symbols of one of the oldest arts in the world.

The black art.

Witchcraft.

Never mind, Barney Ollie.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

Never mind, Barney.

I'll answer it.

Thanks.

What are you baking?

I don't know.

This dough has a life of its own.

Yes?

Miss Snoop?

Miss Ernesto Snoop?

I'm Ernesto Snoop, yes.

My name is Robert.

I'm David's brother.

Oh.

Thank you, Aaron.

I'm sorry to be disturbing you.

Not at all.

Do come in.

Thank you.

I just didn't know where to go, who to talk to.

You see, I was supposed to meet David at the airport and I was delayed by the time I got there

and found out what had happened to me.

Oh, do sit down.

Thank you.

It must have been horrible for you.

They told me at the airline that you and my brothers seek companion.

Yes, I was.

Can I offer you anything, a drink?

No, no, thank you very much.

But if it isn't too painful for you to discuss, I'd like to ask you.

Oh.

Good evening.

Now, this is my sister Gwendolyn.

Gee, dear.

This is David's brother.

Robert D'Wear.

Man, how do you do?

Delighted, Mr. D'Wear.

And I'm so terribly sorry about what happened.

Thank you.

Sit down, Gee.

You were going to ask me a question.

Oh, yes.

Well, you see, I had spoken to David and I knew that he was worried about returning to New York.

Well, actually, afraid would be more accurate.

Afraid of what?

He didn't say.

I mean, he didn't express it in so many words, but he seemed terrified that something was

going to happen.

And he insisted that I meet him at the airport so that he could give me the locket.

The locket?

Yes.

There's no real monetary value attached to it.

It's really a family heirloom kind of old-fashioned ornate.

You see, our family is very close, very tightly knit.

And I live in Vermont, so naturally David and I saw very little of each other.

But it did seem important to him that I have the locket.

And in view of his fear and what finally happened, I thought that perhaps he might have given

it to you to hold for me.

I wish I could say yes to that, Mr. DeWear.

But he gave me nothing.

And I see.

Well, thank you very much.

I'm sorry if I disturbed you.

Good night.

Good night.

Good night, Mr. DeWear.

Oh, you're going back to Vermont now?

Yes, and in a few days.

But why do you ask?

David and I talked about so many things on the plane.

I thought if I could recall anything that would be of use to you.

Oh, I see. Well, thank you very much.

I'm staying at a little apartment on the east 63rd Street on 973.

Well, thank you very much.

Sorry to have disturbed you.

Good night.

973 East 63rd Street.

That puts him right in the middle of the East River.

Quite.

Very bright of you, dear, to dangle the name DeWear.

You certainly grabbed at it.

Who do you suppose he really is?

And why is the lock so important?

Hello. This is a recorded answering device.

Please leave your name, phone number, and any message after you hear the sound of the beep. Thank you.

I got nothing. Absolutely nothing at all.

Of course, I can't be positive that they have it, but they must because everything points to it.

There's no more that I can do because they know me.

It's up to you now. Just follow orders.

Use any means necessary.

I just thought I would get myself a munchy. Can I get you something?

Hot chocolate? Good.

All right.

I'm going to go.

Absolutely fascinating.

If you say so, dear, witchcraft isn't exactly my favorite subject.

I'm going to go.

Did you hear that noise, dear?

Oh, it's just that tree branch brushing against the house, that's all.

Oh!

Now that's a munchy.

Oh! Oh, no.

All right, I did.

This amulet is the symbol of authority of a particular covenant that existed in Made Europe in the 14th and 15th centuries, a particularly mysterious covenant.

That's serious. How?

It doesn't say that. Oh, it says.

I wish we had more on the subject.

Research is clearly indicated.

Who are you? What do you want?

What's going on? Oh, Barney!

What is it? No! Oh, Barney!

Barney!

Barney, you are all right.

Speak to us. Are you all right?

What? Oh, oh, thank goodness.

Oh, that's going to be a terrible bump, Barney. Who was he?

Oh.

But he was scary.

His eyes stared like he was seeing right through you.

Biggest blackest eyes ever saw is like, like...

Like agates? Onyx.

Oh, olives! Big, black, scary olives. I never saw anything like that.

Oh, Barney, you'd better get into bed.

Yes. We'll bring you a cold compress and some sleeping pills.

And munchies. Don't forget the munchies.

You go on downstairs. We'll be right on down.

Thank you. I'll be all right, ladies. Thank you.

Oh, that bump, real. We must tell Stephen about this first thing in the morning.

Yeah, I'm going to see that that door is properly locked.

We seem to have more and more to tell him.

That's a tarot card, isn't it?

Yes. Another symbol of witchcraft.

Stephen, you're all I want to know is that you'll wait there for us.

Of course, but you're being very mysterious.

Practical is the word. There's a lot to discuss, and I just as soon Barney didn't know the details just yet.

Details? What details?

Oh, uh, uh, see you, Stephen.

What details? What? Come on, are you holding out on me?

Oh, Barney, it's just that...

Well, I found that in my flight bag. Now, there's no use worrying about it

till we find out what it is and how it got there, is there?

Jewel, huh? A sword.

Weird, again. Sorry.

Miss G, got an envelope?

Yes.

What?

Thank you.

Imagine.

Using my ladies to smuggle dope.

Dope! What? Are you certain?

No, of course not. But I mean, what else could it be?

Barney, what are you doing?

I don't know what all the cops on TV do this.

Couldn't be dope, it tastes good.

Barney, don't eat up all the evidence.

Are we ready?

Huh?

Barney?

Barney?

Barney?

The, uh, fingerprint check makes it official. There is no David to wear.

Right name is David Anders, clean sheet. No criminal record.

Of course David Anders had no brother.

No family at all. Only a business partner, one, uh, Karen Kainsley.

They run a small magic shop in the village.

Well, now I would think the good doctor has finished checking Barney, so loves home you go.

Thank you, Steve.

Now, come on in, George, we'll get to the end, in this case.

Ladies.

Sometimes our nephews manners are, uh, weird.

Oh, we're his hands.

These are my aunts, Ernesta, and G. This is Lieutenant George Tate.

The lieutenant is the department expert on Satanism, the occult, devil worship, you name it.

Please demage you.

Oh, incidentally, our doctor tells me that Barney is doing fine, he's just resting.

Thank you, good.

Did the laboratory come up with anything new on the white powder, lieutenant?

You might as well tell him, George, it's the only way I'm gonna get my office back.

They're still working on it.

Yes, but we can make an educated guess. It's a drug called mesanthe.

Yes, it's one of the oldest known drugs, and it's always associated in some form or another with devil worship.

Associated in what way?

Well, you see, the drug has some peculiar powers. A small dose can induce a weakening of the will, a hypnotic state.

A larger dose brings death.

Then you've dealt with it before.

Well, tell me, how much do you know about covens?

Small groups of people devoted to some form of devil worship.

Good start. Add this.

There's no way of even estimating how many covens exist.

Some of them will tell you that they're religious for them, that they're non-violent.

And last year we had two homicides, definitely trace the covens.

Mm-hmm.

And two months ago, we had a killing. There was definitely devil worship oriented.

There was a man by the name of Delman Santel.

Now, there were traces of the drug, mesanthe, found in his bloodstream.

Here, and I drew a big fat zero in the case. Couldn't make a dent.

Clever people.

Well, now you ladies are as expert as we are.

Oh, well, may I have a look at the amulet?

Dear.

Oh, for heaven's sake, I thought you had it.

Oh, we were so excited, we must have left it on the table.

Well, I'll pick it up later.

And why don't you go buy the doctor's office and pick up Bernie?

Do you get the feeling that he's trying to get rid of us?

Right on the money, ladies.

And as I've said so many times before, and you have ignored so many times before,

please go home and stay out of the case.

Thank you, Lieutenant.

My pleasure.

Bye, Lieutenant.

Goodbye.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Those are too nice, ladies.

Do you know anything about Satanism?

A little?

Too bad, David.

Didn't keep it at a little.

But he was so into it.

Where were the rituals held?

I don't know.

He never said.

Do you know which covenant was?

No.

All I know is once he became involved with it,

he began to take him over completely.

Then, one night, he came to my apartment.

I have never seen a man so scared.

Finally, he confessed that he had seen a murder.

Had it something to do with the Calvin?

Yes, that's why he was so frightened.

He stayed only a little while, and then he left.

Did you ever see him again?

No.

But four nights ago, he called me from Sun Valley.

He said he'd had to run away from New York because he had a piece of evidence

that could tie the murderer to the murder.

He was going to break with the Calvin and give the evidence to the police.

Well, of course, I'm sure.

That's why they killed him.

Does this tarot card mean anything to you?

Well, we sell them, but only the novelty kind.

That one looks very real.

It would take an expert to read that one.

Do you know of such an expert?

David mentioned someone once.

A man by the name of Moorlach.

128.

Mainly.

You ladies actually going in there?

We have no choice, Barney. It's all we have.

You can stay in the car if you'd like.

Lieutenant would have my head.

Let me lead.

All right. Gladly.

Only fools ascend a stair when Moorlach isn't even there.

Down here. Quickly.

Do you want the fresh air to kill me?

Moorlach cannot wait all day.

Come inside and say your say.

Mr. Moorlach?

This way.

Mr. Moorlach?

Honorable. Honorable Moorlach.

Oh, I'm sorry. Our name is...

No time for amenities.

And names are just obscenities.

What do you want?

Tell me, while the cold runs steams,

and brews a batch of Satan's dreams.

Not bad, eh? I thought that up. I'm hungry to work here.

Very rhythmic.

You're not from the Better Business Bureau.

No.

Weep.

Sneaky lot. Always around here examining my price list.

I ask you.

Is that fair, or is it not?

Frogskin, $1.50.

Wolf's ears, $20. It seems very reasonable.

Wolf's ears seem a little high to me.

Sure.

And you think the wolves like it?

Mr. Moorlach, I mean Honorable Moorlach,

we want to ask you about that.

Stupid.

It's a shame.

Local stuff, built-in obsolescence.

I tell you, the whole witchcraft business is shocked, Evan.

I'm sorry about that, Lucifer.

Honorable?

Not like in the old days.

Real nice business then.

Simple.

A couple of skulls, a few crosses, a herb or two,

and you're doing fine.

Henry Ford had the right idea.

One color, one shape, the Model T, black period.

Different now, huh?

Different?

You ought to carry an inventory like Sears, Robuck.

One carbon, one screen skulls,

the 189th Street likes some red,

and twice the size.

And then there's the material shortages.

I tell you, the government is to blame everything I use.

Everything, mostly frog's bone.

And I'll tell you something, it's the government's fault.

They should have seen it coming.

You want to know the truth?

I think it's a plot.

The frog companies cornered the market.

They're holding back.

I want to get rich.

Honorable Moorlach, we were told

that you could interpret this tarot card.

Will you please?

It's most important.

Lapid's Fang and Eagle's Nook.

Satan, get me off the hook.

This is the real thing.

I have to research it.

Come back tomorrow.

But it'll cost you money, ladies.

I should say 50 would cover it.

And you two young men.

I'll whip up a little owl brain and toggle leaf.

It'll do wonders for your bad back.

A bad back?

How do you know I had a bad back?

Lucifer, give me strength.

Do you think you're playing with kids?

Because I'm a pro.

That's how I know.

Oh, ladies.

Good evening.

Oh, Luke.

Tate, how do you do?

Is Stephen about?

No, I'm sorry.

This is his night on.

Oh, dear.

We had hope to see him.

Well, maybe I can help.

We just wanted to find out if there'd been any progress

in the solving of David's murder.

No, nothing yet.

I guess these things take time.

Yes.

Well, we wish you every bit of luck with it.

And, you know, David was such a nice young man.

Oh, oh, look, I'm glad that you did.

And you've had a great night.

I would love to be here.

I'd love to be here.

Bye.

Good night.

Good night.

Father, wait while we're here.

We had the thought of paying you a visit.

Oh, really?

Why?

Ernesto is researching a new book,

and we had thought you might be able to help us.

Well, I'd be honored.

Another who'd done it?

the very first chapter.

Well, let me in on a ground floor.

Who done it?

The devil.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

I thought you ladies were off of this case.

This has nothing to do with the case, Lieutenant.

Oh, no.

We're just using it as a frame of reference.

Mm-mm.

Now I know why Steve has so much trouble with you two.

All right.

You sit here.

I'm going to use you sit here.

Now sit over.

Well, first off, if it's your theory

that David and Santel were murdered by a particular coven,

why is it so difficult to locate?

Well, they have a history of secrecy

dating back to the 15th century.

They're founder and high priest, the late infamous

Baron von Belikos, who?

von Belikos.

What an extraordinary name.

Yes, it is.

Anyway, von Belikos claimed to be the son of Satan.

And he maintained his power for the possession

of a very unusual amulet.

An amulet?

Our amulet?

That's right.

According to the Baron, it was a gift from Satan.

And hidden inside of the amulet was a poison, which

was used to kill all members of the coven that

were deemed to be traitors by the high priest.

But David was killed by a knife, not by poison.

And he was a member of the coven.

Yes, he was.

But he quit.

So that made him an outsider.

You see, any enemy of the coven on the outside

was always killed by a jeweled ornamental dagger,

which, like the amulet, was said to be a gift from Satan.

Then there is an identifiable weapon,

if it can be located.

If it can.

That's a big if, ladies.

You see, so far we haven't even been able to locate the coven.

Oh, dear.

Well, thank you for your time, Lieutenant.

Oh, yes, thank you.

My pleasure.

And give our love to Stephen.

I'll be glad.

And it might be just as well, not to mention the research.

I understand.

Good night.

Good night.

MUSIC PLAYING

That's it for tonight, isn't it, ladies?

Yes, Barge.

Which we have before we go to bed?

I don't want a hot milk, maybe.

Mm-hmm.

Oh.

My visitors.

Very impolite visitors.

Oh, dear.

What are you doing?

The amulet.

I can't seem to recall putting it down nowhere.

I can't remember which of us handled it last.

It doesn't matter, really.

The visitor probably has it by now.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

I remember when I was pouring the powder out of the amulet,

I reached into my pocket, and there it is now.

I remember.

Oh, my God.

You stay here.

Honorable Moloch here.

Oh, yes, of course, Miss Snoop.

Yes.

Yes, the tarot card.

I've been working on it.

Come over as soon as you like.

I'll have it ready by then.

Thank you, Miss Snoop.

Sir, don't be frightened.

LAUGHTER

Goat's blood and witch's hair.

Who's there?

Honorable Moloch is G and a Nestor Snoop.

No.

Good evening, ladies.

Come here.

You too, young man.

Oh, you have a very interesting place

and such an unusual door chime.

It sounds just like I don't quite know what.

A screaming raven.

Exactly.

That's it.

His name is Craven.

Ugly, isn't it?

Well, that's remarkable.

How did you ever teach him to scream when the jime is pulled?

It's quite simple.

You see the string here?

It's attached to the puller outside.

Goes right along the wall here.

To Craven's leg.

When you pull, he screams.

LAUGHTER

Oh, my.

Mr Moloch, you were going to tell us about the towel-o card

we brought this afternoon.

Oh, yes, of course, of course.

But after that, I must fly.

I'm rather late for an important gathering already.

A secret meeting of your cover, no doubt.

No, a poker game over on 49th Street.

They got me for 1380 last week.

Now, this tarot is from a very rare deck.

It dates back to a particularly nasty cover

of mid-European gypsies around the 16th century.

Or is it the 15th?

Do you know what this particular card stands for?

It is Leer meat.

The hermit.

Hidden knowledge.

I take it you.

Found this.

Came upon it idly.

Oh, no.

As a matter of fact, it was left in our home.

Your home?

Something wrong?

Oh, my poor dear ladies, you don't know what this means.

It means that you apparently have something

that this cover wants and wants very badly.

Still, it might have been worse.

You could have received a second card.

No.

I'm afraid so.

Don't tell me it was.

Lady Arpt, the devil.

The whole.

It wasn't put there by a...

a crossbow, was it?

Yes.

How did you know?

May the devil have mercy on you.

Blow out the candles before you leave.

Mr. Moreluck?

Mr. Moreluck?

Please wait.

Honorable Moreluck!

Stop!

Stop! Stop!

Whoo!

Witch's Bruin Tattleskill!

May the devil scare you!

Are you late for your poker game?

I'm always late.

They expect me to ride in on a broom,

but I've got to depend on taxes like anyone else.

We'd be delighted to drive you.

Oh, thank you.

Yeah, we would have been.

But look at that.

Your Honor, you suppose you could do me a small favor

and maybe you'll work a little your magic on the...

I don't fix flats.

Honorable Moreluck, what is the significance

of a tarot card being shot with a crossbow?

Well, the crossbow, don't you know,

symbolizes the messenger of death,

so you see this covenant is not fooling around.

Whatever they want from you,

they're willing to kill for.

But then don't you see that's why it's so important

that we find out how to contact you.

Contact, you must be mad.

Well, that's the only way we can give them what they want.

Have you got a pencil and paper?

Oh, yeah.

To locate it, I want the answers to two riddles

from two different witches, one trains mediums,

and Lucifer alone knows who and what the other one does.

But be careful.

If either of them suspect who you are

or why you want these answers,

we'll all be in deep trouble.

Taxi, taxi.

Oh, great horned master.

Protect me from disaster.

And upon my enemy's heads, let their fall plaster.

Upon my enemy's heads, let their fall plaster.

What do you expect for the spur of the moment?

Dylan?

Don't forget the riddle, you're to ask.

I won't do hope madamimi is a nice witch.

I'll be back in half an hour.

If you're not standing out here waiting,

I'll let it come in and get you.

Don't worry, I'll be here.

Good luck.

Madamimi?

Madamimi?

Who is it?

Madam Gwendlin.

Sit down, please.

Oh, thank you.

Not all on me.

Not all on me.

I just have got it on me.

Oh, uh, do you have to have change of $5?

No, I'm afraid I don't.

Herman, you're going to have to trust me till tomorrow.

Herman just sold this to me.

It's very reasonable and self-polishing.

There's only one problem.

It's made of plastic and you can't look very far into the future.

Oh, uh, excuse me, but who are you?

Madam Gwendlin.

How'd you get in touch with me?

I was referred by whom?

George Tyler.

George is dead.

Oh, of course.

You can't trust the living.

I contacted him.

You were his first choice.

If you know George, you're not a novice medium.

Oh, no, I used to be a medium.

Well, not a full medium, more of a semi-medium medium.

Medium medium, you might say.

Have you ever worked in New York?

No, no, Chicago.

Oh, I know.

All the mediums in Chicago.

No, Chicago.

Uh, not Chicago.

I would never work in Chicago.

Now, would you tell me?

Excuse me, Madam, maybe.

But I just remember the terribly important question I forgot to ask to smokey.

Well, come on in.

I was halfway across town and I suddenly realized it was a terribly important thing.

I wanted to ask to smokey.

Oh, well, Madam Gwendolyn here will give you the answers.

Oh, well, please sit down.

Oh, may I borrow your ball?

Oh, it's late.

One could easily make house calls.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Are you there, smokey?

Speak to me, smokey.

Speak to me.

Smokey is a dog.

Talk to me, smokey.

Talk to me.

Oh, now, here, in.

I'd make contact.

Oh, ask him if he got the pearl color and leashed that I gave him out of me,

to give him.

Smokey, did you get the pearl color and leashed from Madam me?

Smokey.

Good dog.

Yes, he got them.

Is he happy with them?

Smokey, are you happy with them?

Mmm.

Yes, he's very happy.

He's very happy.

Is that all?

Oh.

Well, uh...

Oh, for now.

Yes.

You see, he wanted to hurry back to show his pearl color to his happy little friends.

Oh, how beautiful.

Thank you, Madam Gwendolyn.

How lovely.

You're welcome, dear.

Oh, well, it's over five years since I've sat on this side of the ball.

Well, that's not bad, Gwendolyn.

Not good, but not bad.

A few dozen lessons, and you should be right on top again.

Really?

As you'll be able to hear actual voices as I do.

Voices.

Management.

Classes are Thursday night at ten.

Oh, marvelous.

Well, maybe then I could even speak to him.

Him.

Baron Von Belikos.

The Baron?

What do you want to talk to him for?

I must ask him a question for my poor Belikert aunt.

Belikert?

Yes, she's very low.

It's her last request.

Maybe you could ask him for me.

My poor aunt and I would be so eternally grateful.

Well, let's...

Heavy Gwendolyn very heavy, but...

Well, let's see what Madam Mimi can do.

I will concentrate.

We're going down.

Way down.

All the way down.

Do you hear me?

Baron Von Belikos, do you hear me?

Here's me.

Oh, speak Gwendolyn.

Oh, oh, Baron.

Oh, great.

Gwendolyn, that's my gig.

Oh, well, ask him if you please could he answer this.

If the longitude is west and the latitude is east,

where do the faithful go to celebrate the beast?

Oh, Baron, did you hear the riddle?

He heard it.

What does he say?

He says, to celebrate the beast, go neither west nor east.

Find the center south by five...

and you shall find the feast.

Thank you, Madam Mimi.

Daylight, you...

...bird spot...

...heaven...

...be types...

I...

...eated!

Mind things...

...what's...

...oh...

...he...

...he...

Come here, my things don't appear, my little things.

I love your things, I see as much as you.

You love me, you think so, hear the way when you go.

You think so, thrilled, you frightful, I am out.

Tonight you think so, dear, about you and my head.

Bad, tight, I need you.

My things, what love, it brings.

Come here, my things don't appear, my little things.

I love your things, I see as much as you.

You love me, you think so, hear the way when you go.

You think so, thrilled, you frightful, I am out.

Tonight you think so, dear, about you and my head.

Bad, tight, I need you.

I understand you seek an audience with me.

As you know, I am a witch, and witches don't answer questions

except to disciples and other witches, which you quite obviously aren't.

Oh, but I am.

You're a disciple?

No, I'm a witch.

Then you can cast spells, of course.

Well, no, that's my problem.

Actually, I'm an underpowered witch.

Underpowered?

I used to have all the power I could use.

Power to spare, you might say.

And then, for no reason at all, I just suddenly lost it.

For instance, if I tried to cast a spell, I could feel it, start out.

And then, it would just seem to lose power and drop.

I see that must be frustrating.

Oh, it's terrible. It's really miserable.

I've tried everything. Nothing works.

I began to feel that the good old days were gone forever.

Then last night, I had a visitation.

Interesting. Go on.

Lucifer's own voice told me that if I could find the answer to a riddle,

I would find my power again.

A riddle?

I've never been much on riddles myself.

No, they do seem rather dated, don't they?

But he did say that a powerful young witch would find the answer.

And also, he said that soon after that, the powerful young witch would become a powerful young warlock.

A warlock?

Hmm? What's the riddle?

If the longitude is south and the latitude is north,

where do disciples meet to send the faithful forth?

You're sure? He said warlock.

To send the faithful forth, go neither south nor north.

From the center set eleven, follow the road, six point seven.

Yes, that marvelous.

I know. I think all those riddles are crazy.

Yes, Barney. We know.

And that moorlock. I'm not so sure I trust him.

What's the matter? Are you all right, Peter?

It's Karen. Karen. From the magic shop.

They're from the same decor, right, Steve? And if I'm not mistaken,

this death card is identical to the one that was found on the forehead of Delman Santel.

What I want to know is why you didn't tell me about the two cards you received earlier.

We didn't want to worry you. And you had so much on your mind already?

We're all through the town. Anything so far?

Lots of prints. We'll make comparisons tomorrow before we know anything for sure.

Thanks, brother. Good night, ladies.

George, I think it might be a good idea to play some man here just in case.

Oh, I think the ladies are safe now, Steve. This is what they were after.

The amulet. I don't think you ladies will be bothered anymore. Good night.

Now, I want you to stop whatever it is you've been doing.

No more midnight research, no more self-styled investigations. Is that clear?

Yes, Steve.

I trust it's doubly clear to you.

Triton Clear, Lieutenant, honest. All right. Good night, ladies.

Good night, dear.

I shouldn't be driving you to Moorlach's. You know that.

But Barney, he's finally home.

Finally is the word. It's some poker game. Last night, all day today.

And now that he's home, let's hope he can locate the coven from the island.

From the answers we got to those riddles.

Yeah, I know, I know. I also know what the Lieutenant said. And so do you.

He said no more research, no more investigation, right?

Not quite, Barney. He said no more midnight research.

And no more self-styled investigation.

I shouldn't see Barney. This isn't self-styled investigation at all.

Ernest and I are styling it together.

And as for midnight research, what's only half past eight?

I got a hand at you, two ladies.

I've seen some good conmen in my day, but you're right and they're with the best of them.

If the longitude is west, and the latitude is east, where do the faithful go to celebrate the beast?

To celebrate the beast, go neither west nor east.

Find the center south by five and you will find the feast.

Center south by five. Yes, yes.

Now, if the longitude is south and the latitude is north, where do the disciples meet?

To send the faithful forth.

To send the faithful forth, go neither south nor north.

From the center, set 11, follow the road, 6.7.

To send the living. 6.7.

Aha!

Uh-huh. You've located it.

I think I've located it. There's only one way to know for sure.

Aha! Aha! Aha!

Oh, great vile master. Some answers come slow, and some come faster.

Oh, brother.

You, Kello, shallow youth. You crummy kid. You screwed the whole thing up.

Please, honorable.

Oh, surely this is... Silence! I'm not through yet. You fool. You knit, wit.

Don't you know that I could turn you into a rock, a frog, or anything I wanted for what you just did?

Look, Moorlach, I don't think...

Horrible Moorlach!

If you don't know and believe in Satan's powers, just look at old Craven here.

You know that he was once an up and coming young executive at Standard Oil New Jersey?

Oh, come honorable. You're not telling us that you changed a human being into that raven?

No. A friend of mine up in the Bronx did. You may not know it to look at him.

But old Craven here used to drive a sports car and earn more than 20,000 a year.

Oh, honorable.

That's it. That's it. We are leaving Pranta, which means right now as of this moment.

Come on, let's go.

Wait a minute. Barney, please, honorable. It's very important.

Just tell us where the carbon is located.

Aha! Aha!

Go north on old post road to Stuyvesant.

Turn left and proceed exactly 6.7 miles.

Thank you, honorable. Thank you.

Now, if we could only find out where the dagger is located, dear, we can't expect the honorable Moorlach to know everything.

Can we?

Ah, but I do know everything, more or less.

You see, like the amulet, the dagger is considered sacred and we're not used for satanic purposes.

It must be in its place of worship.

Where at the place of worship?

By the devil's decree in a golden box, tarnished, of course, and must be warm to the touch.

Warm? What on earth for?

Well, obviously, dear lady, Satan won't go along with anything chilly.

Mm-hmm. How is it kept warm?

Candles.

Find burning candles under golden box, and you find...

You find the dagger.

Most exhausting work, dear ladies.

I think perhaps another 50 in my tristorm, I strength beautifully, don't you?

Mm-hmm.

Lovely. Lovely.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Of course, dear.

The honorable Moorlach knew the location of the Coven all along.

And ran us a rock, the blocks, so to speak.

Undoubtedly, after making phone calls to the prince and madam Mimi.

Of course. Mm-hmm.

Real.

The splitting among the witches.

Quiet. But no choice.

We had to pretend to believe.

Yes.

We never would have learned the location of the Coven.

Mm-hmm.

You want to see me, Lieutenant?

Oh, yeah. Oh, too.

I want to have another look at the physical evidence on the amulet in Coven.

All of it? All of it.

Right, Lieutenant.

We are exactly 6.7 miles.

There it is. Look. Up there.

I'm going to see the

Captain.

I'm going to see the Captain.

Oh, it's a piece of lead.

Oh, it's a piece of lead.

What good's it going to do to find a dagger?

It's not like a gun we've got ballistics and everything.

Well, there's a process called the benzodine test that can isolate even the most minute trace of blood on a knife,

which would be sufficient to identify it as a murder weapon.

Okay.

There it is, Lieutenant. Thanks.

I'm going to see the

Captain.

You see, no one's home.

We're perfectly safe.

I don't like it. It's too quiet.

The honey, you've been staying up late watching old movies again, haven't you?

How'd you know that?

Because they always say it's too quiet. There's no such thing.

They always say that just before something terrible happens.

Nothing terrible is going to happen.

Yeah, they say that, too.

Six, fourteen standard.

Hold this, please. Just shine it right there.

What's that noise?

You've been carrying around something all night. What is it?

Well, if you've got to know why.

Went out and got a little protection.

What kind of protection?

Anybody that worships a devil.

Just show them one of these crosses.

They just can't take it. Everybody knows that.

Yes, Barney. Yes, Barney.

Wait a minute.

Okay.

I'll check back there. Stay here.

I'll check back there.

Stay here.

I'll check back there.

Stay here.

Nothing.

Let's look over there. Let's stay close together.

There's no here.

That the same sign is on the amulet.

Might be the signature of the cover.

Let's look in here.

That must be with a hybrid instance.

Look over there. Is that a goat's head?

You're right. No more lock was wrong. Let's go home.

Nonsense, Barney. It must be on the second floor.

Don't go up there. Do we have to go up there?

Well, you can wait here if you're not.

I'm not sure.

I'll leave the way I've got a flashlight.

It's a spooky house, isn't it?

Don't remind me.

What do you want to live here?

Here. Hey, check this closet.

Nothing here.

I can't understand that.

We checked every room, haven't we?

Maybe more lock was wrong.

I told you he was wrong. Now, ladies, you've got to listen to me.

I may not always be right. I may not always even be sane.

But right now, I am the voice of sanity. And the voice of sanity says...

What?

Barney, where are you?

Barney, say something.

Barney, say something, please.

Please. Get me out of here.

Barney, what happened? Barney, what's the last thing you remember before you disappeared?

I remember I was saying, I am the voice of sanity.

No, not what you said, what you did.

Oh, let me see. I was talking. I leaned up against a wall.

Suddenly something moved. Here I was. I mean, here I am.

Ladies, get me out of here.

Barney! Barney! You're a genius.

I was a genius. I'd be home in bed.

Look. Just like Wallach said.

We got to get out of here. I mean, this place could be possessed by, you know who.

Not that I got anything against you know who. Live and let live. That's my model.

Would you like to carry it, dear?

I thought you would.

Don't look at me.

Well, we'll trade off. Excellent idea.

Oh, my, it's heavy. And warm, good.

We better try to get out of here.

Maybe there's a secret button or a hidden panel or maybe even a...

Like I said, maybe even a...

Oh, go ahead.

Shh. What's wrong? They're here.

Maybe we could creep past them.

Good thinking. Let's see where they are.

I need you.

I have to go with you.

You're supposed to try and find such a dream to find.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Can you feel the difference?

Can you feel the difference?

No, didn't it?

I'll take it.

Ladies, I tell you our geese are cooked.

We can't go down there. We can't even hide in a closet up here because they may want to come up.

That's it. That's what, dear.

That closet down the hall has full of gowns. Just like the ones they're wearing.

Perfect. What do you mean perfect?

Perfect.

Ladies, you can't mean... or you couldn't mean that.

Barney G's right. Disguising ourselves as members of the coffin is the only hope we have of escape.

Well, too, it's me. Yeah, something's wrong. This ambulance is a phony. I'm positive it's a duplicate, a copy.

And you get hold of property, find out who else had access to that envelope. Right.

Me, you with this light?

No, I love it.

Terrific. Look just like a nistus snoop in a black gown.

Wait a minute.

Oh, dear.

I don't know.

Boy, do you think what will happen when they find that box empty?

Search this house from top to bottom.

We're stuck at the top and these lousy closets.

Barney?

What?

I think it's an elevator.

I think you're right there.

Stroski? Yeah, go ahead.

Lieutenant Tate, and who else?

Just Tate.

You sure?

All right. Thanks.

Come on, ladies. This way, come on.

Oh, you're on the wrong floor. This is the basement. The sacred rooms on the first.

Oh, come, wiggle back up.

Yes. We'll show you the way.

We'll take you up in the elevator again.

Yes. Close the door and press the button, please.

You must be new.

Yes, we are.

The High Priest didn't say anything about any new members tonight.

New to this covenant, I mean.

Another covenant?

Yes. We're part of the Covenant exchange program.

Oh, good night.

Ah, the ceremonies began. Come.

You picked a good night.

We did?

But, didn't you know? This is the ceremony of the Great Right.

Oh, evil spirit. Bless us.

This is one great right you'll never forget.

I'm sure we won't.

Oh, the special meeting in your honor.

To commemorate the return of the secret annulist.

Oh, High Priest.

The master of evil is present with us tonight.

Bring the sacred annulist as we may share once again

all our masters come.

The sacred.

Let go of our life.

Let go of our life.

Let go of our life.

Jack, get me the ID night report.

We'll be back.

Dark, some night and shining moon.

Earth, that water, air and fire.

On the pentacolan sword.

Work e unto my desire.

Work e unto my word.

Work e unto my word.

What is this great right?

It could be a human sacrifice.

Yeah, hello. This is Jim Rogers.

I'm a new member and I was supposed to come to the meeting tonight

with George Tate and I wondered if you could tell me where it was.

I missed him.

Oh, I see. Yeah.

Well, no, that's all right. Thank you very much.

Yes, hello. My name is Jim Rogers. I'm a new member.

I will be a new member and

make sure you don't go as many as I can.

They're my name.

They're my name.

They're my name.

Oh, hey!

Say hi!

They're the people of color.

I think you got this.

Broad!

A new posture.

A Christian. There's nothing sacred anymore.

Just what the devil ordered. A human sacrifice. Grab him. Get back!

Get back! It's a gun. A gun disguised as a cross. A gun.

You should be so lucky. This isn't a gun, it's a cross.

A cross. A cross?

It's crazy.

Barney, run!

Get up! Get in the way! Get up!

After them! Don't let them escape!

Stop them! Don't tell them who they are!

Don't let them get away!

Get up!

Please!

Your hands are up.

Yes, thanks to you.

Oh!

We've got just a minute to be. I don't know how to get it all.

Get your hands off me!

You're a little out of uniform, George.

I'm sorry.

Where's Barney?

This one's a hard hill, too, Ted.

Good work, Phillips.

Lieutenant, will you tell him who I am?

He's a troublemaker and an agitator.

Do you want me to book him, too?

No, it's all right. I'll take care of him.

Along with a couple of other ringleaders I know.

What's wrong with you, huh?

So Tate switched the fake amulet for their real one?

I suppose he thought no one but a member of the coven could tell the difference.

How did you know, Steven?

Well, I noticed a flaw on the base of the amulet.

But the fake had no flaw. No imperfections at all.

Oh, and you remember that Delman Santel, I told you about.

The fellow who died of the Missanthe poisoning.

It turns out he used to be a high priest until Tate decided he wanted the job.

Now, what do you had such trouble solving Santel's murder?

To say nothing of poor David's and Karen's.

I still can't figure out why he had to kill Karen.

Oh, Tate cleared that up.

You see, Karen tipped off the coven that David was on the plane.

So Tate didn't want her to be able to testify, huh?

You got it.

So why was she left here?

Oh, I was a warning.

The ladies were getting too close.

Well, I think I better run.

Wait a minute, Lieutenant.

I want to see if I've learned any of this witchcraft business.

Everybody put their hands on their table.

I've got to get back to the office, but...

No.

Go ahead.

You can put their hands on their table and close your eyes.

Please, come on.

I want to see if I have any of that psychic phenom.

Come on, everybody.

Close your eyes. Close your eyes. All right?

Okay, here we go.

Two, four, six, eight.

Come on, table, levitate.

Oh, my honey.

You're amazing.

I'm crazy.

It's a great wizard.

Oh, every good boy.

Oh, Kayleigh, tell me.

Oh, you can't leave us alone.

Oh, I better show Lieutenant to the door.

Well, listen, this is the only chance I've ever had to put your ladies on.

Look, knives.

Oh, oh.

Hey, like Derek's.

Little joke, little joke.

Guilty.

Guilty.

Oh, no.
