Who was I trying to kid? We can't carry on.
What was her name?
Lucy.
I'll show you retaliation.
You stay away from Lucy Jaggat!

ALARM CLOCK RINGS
It's coming.
THE GIRL GIGGLES
We look around us, and we think,
"But surely the war with evil is over.
"Look at our good and bounteous world.
"Surely God has triumphed."
But no, the agents of darkness are among us, friend,
and they are as real as you,
or you, or you, or I.
D'you know what the weird thing is?
Annie says, "Do you know what the weird thing is?" For the eighteenth time,
I can hear her. All right.
So none of this is the weird thing?
THEY can't see me.
The weird Bible guys.
Only you two, Nina and Mr Kemp even know I'm here.
I need a tinkle.
OK. Well, I'll see you back in our room.
So, looks like we found Mitchell's girlfriend. Yeah.
Small world.
Why d'you think she didn't tell him that she had all this going on?
Doesn't exactly fill you with confidence, does it?
No.
THEY GROAN This place is doing my head in.
All the medical tests, religious talks.
Do you know I'm not even allowed protein?
You're kidding? No. No dairy or meat.
They're worried it will strengthen the demon.
SHE CHUCKLES The demon!
It's not funny.
So then, why are you here?
Since I gave Nina... Since...
HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
Since Nina got the curse,
she's asked me for nothing, except this.
So it doesn't really matter what I believe.
You going to see it through?
I will see you later.
George.
I'm worried about Mitchell.
When we left him, he was... He was drunk. That's all.
He wasn't drunk. You know he wasn't drunk. What the hell had happened?
What's he done?
Where's my Garfield mug?
I-I don't know.
Ma'am, are you all right?
Yes, yes. I'm fine.
The facade of friendship is impressively consistent.
To all extents,
an innocent ear hearing their conversation
would assume their...
relationship to be entirely authentic.
Entirely human.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Have you got a minute?
I saw Amy McBride this morning.
Amy McBride is dead.
She spoke to me.
She said...
"It's coming."
What is?
Retribution, my stuff from Amazon...
She didn't go into detail.
Why retribution?
Amy McBride came to us willingly.
She knew what we were trying to achieve here.
And she knew her lover had died in the chamber before her, but she walked in there nonetheless.
As they all did. She didn't, though, did she?
She changed her mind as we closed the door. Do you remember?
But we were so convinced...
What's the alternative?
We simply allow the possession to spread?
Are you saying it's win-win?
I'm saying we're doing good work.
Er...
I'm really glad that you're here.
George has Nina, and...
Well, if you weren't here, I think I'd just feel...
Yeah, us freaks should stick together.
Yeah.
Does George know why you're really here?
He thinks I'm here to keep an eye on him.
Don't tell him, will you?
No, no.
I just...wish they'd hurry up.
I'm sick of all this waiting.
All right?
Thank you.
There's no milk.
Oh, er, we ran out. Sorry, brother.
Look, listen.
I'm not your brother, all right?
I'm a scientist.
What are these?
Er, body bags for the Type Threes.
But we're curing them.
In a manner of speaking.
Yeah. Look, listen.
Why don't you, er,
pop down the Londis and get a pint of milk?
We don't carry money. Yeah, whatever, Reverend.
Go down to Thomas by the main entrance.
He'll give you some out of petty cash.
OK?
Er... He's not here.
(Yes. Oh, hello, you naughty Type Three.)
(Oh, you naughty Type Three.)
(Oh, yes, yes, yes.)
HE BREATHES HEAVILY
You can't hear me, can you?
< Hello?
FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
The one downside to using this building.
Archaic wiring.
It's an old bank, isn't it?
I like the symbolism.
Commerce was a religion of the 20th Century.
Banks were the churches.
Now we're reclaiming the land.
I thought you were the scientist.
Faith was my guilty secret.
I then outed myself by writing a book on intelligent design.
Intelligent design? Hmm.
How did that go down with the other scientists?
They hid all my stuff,
and drew a cock on the back of my lab coat.
I know about you and Mitchell.
The intention...
..was to reach out to you.
Now, given the exclusivity of your friendship,
I thought the best way to do that was through Mitchell.
I fucked up.
I lost sight of why I was there.
It was unprofessional...
..and adolescent.
Did you love him?
Mitchell's gone now.
You make me nervous.
It's like all my senses are telling me you're dangerous.
I am.
Excuse me? But not to you. They're not your senses. There's a...
A creature inside of you.
Now, Kemp calls it a demon.
But it looks at me through your eyes and it knows what I am going to do.
It's funny.
Because it feels like it's me.
I want to help you.
I want to do good work.
It's not me, it's Annie. I've just been with her.
She's crying cos she's so worried. He's a 116-year-old mass murderer, not a fucking gerbil.
What can YOU do?
Oh, lovely.
Look, as soon as I find him, I will come straight back, I promise.
You made a choice.
First thing you said when you arrived - "I have a responsibility to try this."
And I will! No, then it'll be something else.
You have to commit to this. That's how it works. I'll be gone a day.
Like...two days.
Why did you even come here?
Was it guilt?
Obligation? You know why.
I thought maybe they had a cure.
Exactly.
A cure for this...hell we're in.
And three days later you want to leave? I don't understand. I'm frightened! It...
The risks are minimal. They've told you that. I am frightened...
it will work.
Two years ago,
I was given the world's best excuse not to get involved.
You said as much yourself when you rang me - do you remember?
I said you should stop using the curse as an excuse not to live.
All that time, I have been dreaming of a life without this.
And that it might happen...
The thought of it, it's so...
..exquisite.
It's so terrifying.
When I...found out what you were...
..suddenly it all...
It all made sense, you know.
I've never exactly been, er...
..lucky in love, but...
If this works...
..we'll have nothing left to hide behind.
It would just be you and me, and we've never known that before.
My God. George, you think YOU'RE scared...?
You really thought that?
Nina...
You are worth a thousand of me.
Just the one'll do.
So what happens now?
I stay.
Hi. My phone's out of juice and I need to make a phone call.
I CAN make a phone call, can't I? Nina made a phone call.
Right. Er...
Yeah, yeah. I-I-I guess.
Line's free.
Oh, great.
Er...
Father Kemp would rather...
To someone on the outside, what we do...
No, don't worry. I'm not telling anyone. OK.
None of us emerge from this exactly covered in glory.

WAILING AND GURGLING
'Hi, this is Mitchell. Leave a message.'
Where are you?
What's happened to you, Mitchell?
I keep dragging you from that world but you keep sliding back, and I...
I-I can't rescue you any more. There's Nina to think of, and Annie.
And I think you should leave us alone now.
Not in? Hmm?
Er, no. No.
I'm just going to see if he's left any messages at home.
What's the outside line, please?
'Hello. No-one's here to take your message. Please leave...'
KEYS BLEEP
ANSWERPHONE: 'Play back new messages. You have new messages.'
ANNIE: 'It's me.
'If you're listening to this...
'it means I've gone.
'The man that came to the house to talk to George, he's...
'He's helped me complete my journey.
'For so long now, I've, er...
'I've been tired.
'And frightened.
'The prospect of this...
'scream of time in front of me...
'is terrifying.
'Do you remember, George? I was going to pass over
'and you couldn't understand why, if I didn't know what lay beyond.
'It's because...
'This endless life - never aging,
'never kissing, never having a family -
'all the things that make you human...
'Not having them is a worse hell than anything they've got over there.
'But you boys...
'I love you boys.
'Because it was through you two that I've...
'I've really, truly lived.
'SHE SIGHS
'Bye.'
HE YELLS
TECHNICIAN: There. The door. KEMP: Where?
DANIEL: There.
It's Mitchell.
Mitchell was destroyed in the fire,
along with all the other vampires.
Amy McBride died in a chamber four months ago.
That didn't stop her dropping by my office this morning.
Oh, Amy McBride came to your office?
Amy McBride who exploded?
She said, "It's coming".
It's here.
Thomas must have let him in the main entrance. Call him now.
He went there, through there, along there, through there,
through here and here. And where then?
No answer.
Fucking hell.
Here. Where? NO, HERE.
Look, he took the body bags. He was in this room.
I don't understand.
I-Is he looking for them? is he looking for us?
Both.
Primarily, I suspect he's looking for you.
He mustn't contact the Type Threes. Get down there.
Tell them we need to run tests, move them somewhere he's already been.
And close that main entrance. Put them in the holding room, next to the main bay.
When Amy McBride was in the chamber, where we... What happens if we run into...him?
You have your Bible with you?
Go to the observation room. Lock the door and wait for me. No.
I want to stay here. Lucy.
Please.
Daniel.
Our work here is over.
But we cannot release George and Nina back into society
and allow their demon to steal more innocent souls.
They are a threat to humanity.
And once we've dealt with this intruder, it's our duty to neutralise it.
That is God's will,
and when the time comes to carry it out,
I shall need your help.
So what the hell do WE do?
We wait.
Oh, hang on. I need to speak to Annie. Right. It's just... Two minutes.
Just two.
Come in.
What the hell are you doing?
I just rang home to see if there was a message from Mitchell
and I got your suicide note.
Ah. Is that why you're here?
Is it? You want Father Lurch to exorcise you?
No. I wanted to keep an eye on you as well.
Did you know about this? Er, yeah.
Ye...? Oh, right, so you tell him and not us?
You would have tried to stop me.
Er, yeah. Too bloody right!
No, sorry. I've already lost one best friend this week. I won't lose another.
You want to get cured. Why can't I? Completely different - my cure won't kill me!
It'll kill me. What?
That doesn't even make sense.
You'll be human, George.
You won't be able to see me.
Then NOBODY will be able to see me.
SHE SIGHS
What if I stayed?
I mean...
the way I am. No!
You've got Nina now...
I'm just saying -
what if?
You OK?
Just one more day. One more - that's all I ask.
I understand what you're saying. I really do understand, but please,
please don't do anything until we've spoken.
I love you, you know?
Yeah.
I love you too.
Oh, shut up. You shut up!
Shut up!
What is it?
I don't know. It's weird.
But I feel very frightened.
I'm really sorry... Yes!
It's fine.
Everything will be fine.
Yes!
MECHANICAL WHIRRING
That's the lift.
Come on.
Be ye of good heart.
This is madness. Madness.
Look, it's three floors up.
Stand firm.
It's coming. Jesus Christ. This is insane.
SCREAMING
What hell was in that house?
What hell have we invited here?
TAPPING
TAPPING INTENSIFIES
This is it.
TECHNICIAN YELLS
It's not him.
TECHNICIAN MUTTERS
Will you SHUT UP?!
Something's going on. You're imagining it. I'm not!
That little Bible guy who brought us here was pumped full of adrenaline.
Couldn't you smell it? Can't tell one smell from another yet.
I think everyone stinks now.
Come on.
Oh! We could play I Spy.
Oh, no.
I spy, with my little eye... Please. Please don't do this.
Live with it. It's happening. I spy, with my little eye,
something beginning with...
God, you are beautiful.
..W. You can't say "walls".
D'you know, we'd never have met if it weren't for this.
W.
And you can't say "walls".
Oh, I don't know. Er...
Weird Christians. I give up.
Writing.
Writing?
Look, over there.
I can't read it from here.
HE CLEARS THROAT, SHE CHUCKLES
Ooh! Nice arse.
Yeah. I'm aware of that, thank you.
So? What's it say?
George?
Get up.
MITCHELL: 'Where are George and Annie?'
'They're here, they're safe.'
'Cut the bullshit, Lucy. Tell me where George and Annie are, now.'
'It's fine.'
They're still alive.
Why did you say "still alive"?
Was there anything you said to me -
anything you did - that wasn't a lie?
I had to win your confidence. We had sex.
I had to win your confidence. Why?
The three of you -
'you erase everything.
'Science, faith.
'We go back to the year dot with you.
'My God.
'To study that.
'To understand...'
a fraction of what you mean to the world.
How does blowing up a building full of vampires fit in with that?
We got sidetracked.
"Sidetracked"?
There was a parade of bodies coming into the hospital.
Were we supposed to just sit there and watch? It was under control.
Yeah, clearly(!) So you took it upon yourselves to do a bit of ethnic cleansing. Don't you dare!
Don't you fucking dare try to legitimise...
You betrayed me.
Please don't tell me that's what this is about.
You have just killed how many of my people?
And all because I hurt your feelings?
How many people have you killed?
The werewolves are sick.
There is evil in them.
Everything we have done has been to try and help them.
That's very noble, but...
..did it ever occur to you that if you started pre-ordering body bags,
then maybe it was time to stop?
KNOCKING GEORGE: Help! Help, please!
Please help! Something's wrong. Something's wrong with Nina!
Please! Please! Please!
Something's terribly wrong! Please!
Something's wrong! Help!
DANIEL SCREAMS Please don't hurt me!
If this was just a science project, then why focus on us?
The three of you, living together like that.
It frightened us. We didn't know what you were planning.
We weren't planning anything. We just wanted to be left alone.
You don't get to be left alone!
You don't get a life and lovers and hope.
You are poisonous. You are wearing other people's clothes.
You are not human.
You have such a reductive view of the world.
God made man in His own image.
What if that included His rage?
And His spite,
and His indifference...
..and His cruelty?
'What if God made us, too?
'We're all...
'..His children, you see.'
But God's a bit of a bastard.
'Look at us both.
'Covered in other people's blood and talking about morality.
But there's one difference between me and you.
You had a choice.
What's going on? It's time we helped Annie finish her journey.
Actually, er, I've... I've decided that I'm going to stay for a bit.
Look, she's decided to stay, just for the time being.
We've discussed this, Annie.
I know. I was ready, but... It's a huge step. We can't go ahead until she's ready.
Sometimes you have to make a leap of faith. She won't go anywhere till she's said goodbye to her friends.
Friends?!
Did she actually use that actual word?
George, we should find Annie and go.
Something's going on.
What's he...?
Oh, shit - there's a body in the bathroom.
What's she up to?
There's Annie.
We've been over this.
Annie's different - she won't budge.
Anyway, there needs to be a death to make a door for her to pass through.
How are you going to do that?
Like this.
Annie?
And when He called unto Him His twelve disciples,
He gave them power over unclean spirits to cast them out.
Oh, no. Oh, he killed me.
He gave them power over unclean spirits to cast them out.
These 12, Jesus sent forth and commanded them... Oh, my God!
"As ye go, preach, saying, 'The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand'."
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers... Annie!
Raise the dead... HENNESSEY SCREAMS
Cast out devils!
Spirit...
I command you leave here.
Annie! No, no, no...
The power of Christ compels you.
Close your eyes.
SHE SCREAMS
No, no, no. NO!
NO! The power of Christ compels you.
No! George!
The power of Christ compels you.
SCREAMING: No, please! No, I'm not ready!
George! GEORGE!
No, no! Annie, Annie!
NO!
SHE SCREAMS
George, we need to go.
We need to go. Please. George!
Come on.
George!
MUSIC: "No Man's Land" by David Holmes
What is it? What's happening?
What is it?
HE GROANS
They took her, Nina. They took her.
I know, baby, I know.
Come on! There's nothing you can do for her.
He's here! What? Who?!
Mitchell! He's here somewhere.
I need to find him.
Where are you going? It's not safe. We don't know how many of them are still in there. George!
George!
Shit, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. Shit, fuck, fuck, fuck.
Fuck. Oh, fuck, fuck. Fuck.
HE YELLS
KEMP: Mitchell.
I killed her.
Your "friend".
I threw her over to the other side.
HE GRUNTS
Did you feel her go?
Mmm? Did you?
Did you hear her scream as she was ripped from the world?
I want you to know pain.
Like the families of your victims.
I want you to know grief and rage,
as I did.
I'm going to kill you.
I'm going to rip your head off.
I'm ready to meet my maker.
Are you ready to meet yours?
MITCHELL! Mitchell, stop!
He killed her, George.
He took her away from us.
She wouldn't want this. You know she wouldn't.
Leave. Now. Or I swear to God, you'll be next.
No.
I have lost too much today.
Get out of here, George. I am not going to lose you.
I'll kill him and I'll kill you. No, you won't. You don't know what I've done.
You're still in there somewhere. THEY KILLED HER. And this is how you're going to honour her?
If you want to kill,
if you want to rip away every last shred of humanity, then fine.
But don't you DARE do it in Annie's name.
MITCHELL SOBS
THEY'RE monsters.
Not us.
Oh, fuck.
FUCK!
Mitchell, give me your hand.
Mitchell.
Come on.
Take my hand.
That's it. Come on, come on.
She's gone. We've lost her.
I know. But I got you back.
POSTMAN WHISTLES
Huh.
RADIO: '..in Bristol Cathedral to remember the Box Tunnel 20.
'On the 27th of last month,
'the 18:46 South Western Express from Bristol Temple Meads...'
Sorry, are you listening to this?
'..to Paddington stopped in Box Tunnel, after the driver reported an obstruction on the track.'
'Contact with the driver was lost...' I'll...
'The entire line had to be closed. When rescue crews finally reached the train,
'they found all 20 passengers had been killed.'
There's no hot water. Again.
What's this?
God's Blueprint by Professor Lucy Jaggat.
I mean, how fucking pretentious.
Are you hoping she'd included an address and telephone number?
Just trying to get inside her head, George.
You don't have to do this.
Can you drive me to town? I want to go to the library again.
I think I've the name of the beardy guy who pushed the buttons. It's Lloyd Pinky - can you believe it?
It wasn't your fault, Nina.
I brought Kemp to the house and he met Annie.
I convinced you to go to the facility. We watched her get...
So, yes.
I have to do this.
My shift starts at two at the cafe.
So I'll drop you off.
RADIO: 'The cause of the attack is still unknown.
'But Alistair Lynch, Chief Constable for Avon and Somerset,
'insists the police have many encouraging lines of enquiry.
'Theories circulating the press and Internet,
'linking the killings to everything from a gangland turf war to ritualistic sacrifices.
'Chief Constable Lynch has...'
Haven't you heard enough of listening to this?
(It's interesting.)
'..while they investigate the deaths of the Box Tunnel 20.'
It's other people's grief.
It's pornographic.
For the rest of my life,
bad plumbing will make me think of her.
Why haven't you asked me?
Asked you what?
About what happened before you left the house.
About what I did in the facility.
I don't want to know.
Er...
I don't want to look at you and think...
I can't be your confessor, Mitchell.
I can't. Not now.
I need you too much.
Are you here on your own?
What happened to Kemp?
I don't know.
That day, after you left, it was insane. All the alarms...
How did you find us?
Nina's been looking for me.
She's left a bit of a paper trail.
I'd already been to your old house. It was all locked up.
We can't go back there. But we're not in a position to hurt you any more.
It's over. There isn't even a "we" now, anyway.
We can't go back there because it was Annie's house and we lost her.
Now, what do you want, Lucy?
The chamber was my idea.
Four people died in there.
Craig Ford.
Amy McBride.
Lee Tully.
Richard Galvin.
Their faces are the first thing I see when I wake up,
and the last thing I see before I sleep.
So it's death or forgiveness you're after, is it?
Do you have any idea what you've done to me?
What you've started?
I should rip you apart with my hands.
I have to live with what I've done.
I think you should, too.
Mitchell, I need to see Nina and George.
In terms of good ideas, that's up there with the chamber.
Mitchell, please! I don't have anywhere else to go.
You've got some fucking nerve. N-Nina, please.
Got your friend with you? She's on her own, Nina.
Nina. Nina, let her go.
Why are you here?
I find that an odd question, given you've gone to such lengths to find me.
Tell me about it. I've got one of your books.
600 pages of utter bullshit.
Did you keep the receipt? I can get your money back.
Is that sarcasm? Is she giving us sarcasm now?
Christ, Mitchell, why haven't you just...
What?
Killed her? Yeah.
Where's Kemp? I've asked her. She doesn't know.
Right, so what does she want, then?
To say sorry. "Sorry"?
What, like you pranged the car?
Well, to...
To explain, then.
But before I can make any kind of reparation I have... I don't want reparation.
What DO you want, Nina?
I don't know.
Maybe I just want to give you a little nip.
OK, this is... This is getting nowhere, Nina.
Nina.
Do you trust her?
I believe she wants to make amends.
She must have been some lay. You think that's what this is about?
What are we supposed to think? Lucy's dangerous. Why are you inviting her back into our lives?
Hold on a second - it was Inch-High Private Eye that led her here.
I wanted to protect our friend.
You think I don't?
Well...
She didn't kill Annie.
It's not just about Annie.
I was in there for two months.
One time, they put me in that chamber.
They persuaded me to bring the man I love in there, to die,
like Tully died, like the others died.
You're better than this. They started it.
They set the agenda. Why is it always down to the victims to do the right thing?
Cos there has to be a difference between us and them.
There is.
We're weaker.
Thanks.
I haven't forgiven Lucy.
I'm just saying I don't think we should kill her.
Don't go thinking I'm your ally in this, Mitchell.
Here.
There's milk and bread and stuff in the fridge.
There's still blood on it.
Oh, now you're getting squeamish(?)
Why are you doing this?
The others want me dead.
Nina, certainly.
And you're the one...
Why ARE you doing this?
If you want forgiveness, you have to offer it first.
I still get the lumpy sofa.
Yeah, don't push it.
Why did you come here?
I betrayed my lover...
I betrayed my faith.
I don't know what I am any more.
I guess you're a monster now.
Just like us.
BANGING
What are you up to?
OK.
God knows what you've done to Mitchell, and George is, you know, too nice.
So it looks like I'll have to be the grown-up. I want you gone by morning.
Nina. Run.
What? Get out, Nina!
GET OUT!
Hello, Nina.
NINA SCREAMS
Mitchell?
Lucy. LUCY!
NO!
Please.
Please, don't hurt her.
The dog.
It begs.
OK, listen to me. We're going to get you to a hospital.
Mitchell, let me go. No. No we have to...
I'm a coward.
I want this.
Mitchell.
If you want to kill someone...
..then you...
..kill me.
Oh, be assured - tonight, I will spill every drop of your black blood.
And I'll start...
..with her.
Oh, my God. That was Annie.
CLUNKING
What's that?
DISTORTION ON TV
Nina, I thought that didn't work.
No it doesn't. Mitchell.
Mitchell! Mitchell!
MITCHELL!
What?
Annie!
'Can you hear me?'
Yeah! We can hear you and see you.
'Are you guys safe now?' Yeah. You saved us.
Annie...
are you OK?
'Yeah. Yeah.
'It's a bit complicated.
'Er...
'I miss you.' Oh, we miss you too, Annie.
What's it like there?
'We wait.
We each have a number and...
