0:00:15 > 0:00:18THEY CHANT IN LATIN

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Maculcurum.

0:00:32 > 0:00:36HE CHANTS

0:00:37 > 0:00:40THEY CHANT

0:00:46 > 0:00:47What are they doing?

0:00:47 > 0:00:49It's a mourning ceremony.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03Thank you.

0:01:03 > 0:01:07- It means a lot that you're remembering Ryan.- Who?

0:01:08 > 0:01:11Ryan? Oh, him.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14This wasn't for your inconsequential brother.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Move.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21Thomas Owen, elder of the Vampire High Council has passed.

0:01:23 > 0:01:262,000 years old and blind as a bat.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29Senile old fool woke up in the middle of the day

0:01:29 > 0:01:30and opened the curtains.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Still a bit upset, is she?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40We need to find out who killed Ryan.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Haven't you got enough on your plate?

0:01:42 > 0:01:44That is why I'm putting you in charge of the investigation.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49I take it you'll be putting me forward

0:01:49 > 0:01:52for Thomas Owen's place on the High Council.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56It was agreed you would first prove yourself by carrying out three tasks.

0:01:56 > 0:02:01And I passed the first. I foiled Vlad's plan to kidnap Adze.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05As long as Erin is around, there will still be plotting.

0:02:05 > 0:02:11Your second task is to get her out of the way, by any means necessary.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16You actually want me to organise your stag weekend?

0:02:16 > 0:02:17We have to keep up the pretence

0:02:17 > 0:02:20until I can find a way out of this bloodbinding.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22You can put me down.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24It's a stag weekend. No girls.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27I'm not staying here on my own. Ryan's killer's still on the loose.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30You won't be on your own, I'll look after you.

0:02:30 > 0:02:34I feel terrible about Ryan. I made him.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Looking after his little sister is the least I could do.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Thanks, but I'll be fine.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43You will be safe with me.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Let's do lunch.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47My treat.

0:03:03 > 0:03:08Murder requires both motive and opportunity.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21You had the motive.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24Did I?

0:03:24 > 0:03:27He ridiculed you.

0:03:30 > 0:03:31Everybody ridiculed me.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35But you also had the opportunity,

0:03:35 > 0:03:37being in possession of the murder weapon.

0:03:43 > 0:03:44Ah.

0:03:44 > 0:03:50It's Professor Renfield at your service.

0:03:52 > 0:03:53I wouldn't hurt a fly.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58Oh, is that right?

0:04:21 > 0:04:24FLY BUZZES

0:04:41 > 0:04:42Aha!

0:04:46 > 0:04:49I know my rights.

0:04:49 > 0:04:50I demand...

0:04:50 > 0:04:51HE BELCHES

0:04:51 > 0:04:53..a lawyer.

0:04:55 > 0:04:59THEY WHISPER

0:05:03 > 0:05:08My lawyer

0:05:08 > 0:05:12has advised me to plead guilty,

0:05:12 > 0:05:14with mitigation.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17Oh, so you're admitting you killed Ryan.

0:05:17 > 0:05:23Never liked him, and as you said, I had both motive and opportunity.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26Right, now that's settled, can we go?

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Vlad ordered me to bring the murderer to justice.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40This murder was a classic.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43It would have needed a brilliant mind and a dark soul,

0:05:43 > 0:05:45it was a work of art.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48Meticulously planned, ambitious, imaginative.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Way beyond the limited capabilities of Redfield.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52My point pre...

0:05:53 > 0:05:55..cisely.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58Having one of the Scrap kids on the School Senate was your idea,

0:05:58 > 0:06:00wasn't it?

0:06:00 > 0:06:03What are you insinuating?

0:06:03 > 0:06:07You don't share Vlad's vision of coexistence.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10What better way to derail the peace process

0:06:10 > 0:06:15than bump off one of the Scrappers and put the bat among the pigeons.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17I'd advise you to plead the fifth.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21All right, all right.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25The Senate idea wasn't mine, it was Miss McCauley's.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27- Oh, so you had an accomplice?- No.

0:06:27 > 0:06:28BELL RINGS

0:06:28 > 0:06:30I've got a confession to make.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34I missed the Senate quiz because I fell asleep.

0:06:34 > 0:06:35Well, you've been working hard.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38I'll make amends by writing it up for the school newsletter.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40Starting with, who won?

0:06:40 > 0:06:44Erm, Malik, on a technicality.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46Perhaps I could interview both the candidates.

0:06:46 > 0:06:47Not too sure Ryan's up to it.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Was he very disappointed?

0:06:49 > 0:06:54Didn't take it too well. Donating the mortarboard was an inspired idea.

0:06:54 > 0:06:55Mortarboard?

0:06:55 > 0:06:59This is for the winner of the Senate quiz.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01It will need a clean before we present it.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Straight away, Miss.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07I didn't donate a mortarboard.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Renfield was under the impression you did.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11He must have got confused, it wasn't me.

0:07:11 > 0:07:15I don't believe in such archaic symbols of authority.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26The tickets, they've arrived. Is there one in there for me?

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Not another Skull Club reunion.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35Au contraire, a stag weekend in Riga,

0:07:35 > 0:07:38and a final chance to let your fangs down

0:07:38 > 0:07:42before tying the eternal marital knot to Adze.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Jonno will be my best man.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46We're not going to Riga.

0:07:46 > 0:07:52Besides, you are way too old for Club 18-320.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Don't listen to him, don't look a day over 300.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00Vlad!

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Your dad's given me all these demands for the stag weekend.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06I've already made legal plans.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Stick to them, it's my stag, not his.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17And it's going to be your wedding in less than a week.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19If we're going to stop it we need to act soon.

0:08:19 > 0:08:20Don't you think I know that?

0:08:23 > 0:08:26You're doing good, just play along with the stag thing,

0:08:26 > 0:08:28don't arouse suspicions.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Why would I want to kill Ryan?

0:08:37 > 0:08:40He was nothing to me, an underling, irrelevant.

0:08:40 > 0:08:46On the contrary, the fact he was Erin's brother is very relevant.

0:08:46 > 0:08:47How did you work that out?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Erin is your rival in love.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51You were warning her off.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59I'm a straight for the jugular kind of girl.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03If I wanted Erin out of the way, I'd have done it myself.

0:09:07 > 0:09:08You're pretty rubbish at this.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Don't underestimate me.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14You haven't even asked yourself the most obvious question.

0:09:14 > 0:09:15Which is?

0:09:15 > 0:09:18Ryan was hardly the sharpest fang in the cave,

0:09:18 > 0:09:20and he'd been a biter, for what?

0:09:20 > 0:09:22A few months.

0:09:22 > 0:09:23So?

0:09:23 > 0:09:26So, how does someone like that suddenly have,

0:09:26 > 0:09:30like, 2,000 years of knowledge?

0:09:30 > 0:09:32What are you getting at?

0:09:32 > 0:09:36If Ryan hadn't have known all the answers to the Senate quiz,

0:09:36 > 0:09:38he wouldn't have died.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Nobody saw the Senate quiz questions except me.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49I had them under lock and key.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12But you could have given him the answers.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15- To what end?- You tell me.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21You tried to frame him before.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24If you've something to say, say it.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28If not I suggest you look for a suspect amongst our real enemies,

0:10:28 > 0:10:31slayers and breathers.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42I'm thinking a dark weave of Oltenian lamb's wool.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44I know a shepherd who grazes a pedigree flock

0:10:44 > 0:10:46on the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Does it matter?

0:10:48 > 0:10:50For the bloodbinding of the chosen one, of course it matters.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54And buttonholes. Deadly nightshade is so last millennium.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Perhaps Monkshood? Just as toxic.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Fine choice. The blue would set your eyes off a treat.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06- All done.- Right. Now for the tasting menu.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Suit measured, date set, flowers chosen.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15I won't let this happen.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18If it comes to it, we'll just have to leave here.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Are you serious?

0:11:21 > 0:11:25Scrap is working, look at what you've achieved with the ferals.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27You'd give that all up for me?

0:11:27 > 0:11:29If that's what it takes.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Erin said I could borrow her nail varnish.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51It's in there.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Bertrand's looking for you.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Then he'll have to wait.

0:12:08 > 0:12:13Stasis spray. It is what Erin uses to disguise what she really is.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16A breather. I'm going to replace it with water.

0:12:16 > 0:12:21The chosen one, and a breather? Is this some sort of sick joke?

0:12:21 > 0:12:23If you'd let me finish.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25It's her that needs to be finished.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27How long have you known about this?

0:12:27 > 0:12:30Who else is privy to this information?

0:12:30 > 0:12:35Vlad, obviously, Bertrand, Jonno,

0:12:35 > 0:12:38Renfield, Dad, Mina knows, I think.

0:12:38 > 0:12:42Count Dracula is harbouring a breather?

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Well, to be fair, he has tried to kill her in the past.

0:12:45 > 0:12:46And failed.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Don't make the same mistake.

0:13:00 > 0:13:04Wait up. Heard you were having a bit of a stag do.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Let me guess, you want an invite.

0:13:06 > 0:13:07Well, if that's all right with you.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09I love a party, me.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11OK, I don't see why not.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Because then you'd have to invite all the other Scrappers.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16That's all right, I wouldn't tell anyone. It'll be our secret.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18What happens on the stag, stays on the stag.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21They're bound to find out. You could have a mutiny on your hands.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24She's right, I can't be seen to give preferential treatment, sorry.

0:13:31 > 0:13:32Did you see that?

0:13:32 > 0:13:35I keep trying to get close to him, Erin keeps getting in the way.

0:13:35 > 0:13:36Dusting Ryan's made things worse.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39Then we'll take her out of the equation.

0:13:39 > 0:13:45- How?- By sending her into a battle she will never win.- Battle with who?

0:13:48 > 0:13:50Who are you talking to?

0:13:50 > 0:13:54I was conjugating Transylvanian verbs.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59Someone looks pleased with themselves.

0:13:59 > 0:14:00Between you and me,

0:14:00 > 0:14:04we may be looking at the newest member of the High Council.

0:14:09 > 0:14:13May I show you to a table. A table.

0:14:13 > 0:14:17- There is of course the small matter of the dowry.- Dowry?

0:14:17 > 0:14:21Well it is traditional for the family of the bride

0:14:21 > 0:14:23to offer a financial incentive.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25That tradition stopped 500 years ago.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27It was worth a shot.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Blood diamonds.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35The father of the groom should look sharp for a bloodbinding.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40Do you know how many bats die in the mining of these?

0:14:42 > 0:14:43Where did you get it from?

0:14:43 > 0:14:45I can't reveal my sources.

0:15:04 > 0:15:08Well Baron De Votslot has been caught getting his fangs enlarged.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11I'm not really interested in celebrity vampire gossip.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15Vlad said they were your favourite.

0:15:26 > 0:15:27Get away from her.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30She's not for biting.

0:15:34 > 0:15:35Anybody else?

0:15:37 > 0:15:38Spoilsport.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Did you put them up to this?

0:15:40 > 0:15:43- As much as I would love to take the credit...- Was it you?

0:15:43 > 0:15:45I was trying to protect her.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48I will find out who is responsible for this.

0:15:48 > 0:15:53What do you expect, trying to pass off a breather as a half fang?

0:15:55 > 0:15:58You only have yourself to blame.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Oops.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03Looks like your secret's out.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09You can't seriously fancy a breather.

0:16:11 > 0:16:12It's so wrong.

0:16:12 > 0:16:17Peaceful coexistence, remember. We're the future.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19Really?

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Salou.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34I don't understand, I used the spray.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37Whatever you use wasn't stasis. Those vampires could smell you.

0:16:37 > 0:16:41- Somebody must have swapped it. - The same someone who killed Ryan.

0:16:41 > 0:16:42We'll protect you.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Why?

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Because I'm your poster babe for harmonious living?

0:16:46 > 0:16:49Great PR having a breather girlfriend.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51- I thought I was more than a symbol. - Of course you are.

0:16:51 > 0:16:55I love you for who you are, not what you are.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02We have to check in on Bertrand.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07We'll find out whoever is doing this.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Well that was a spectacular failure.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42You can forget about the High Council.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44I don't think so.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47There are only two sets of fingerprints on this bottle.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50Erin's and yours.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Now what would happen if I was to show this to Bertrand?

0:17:59 > 0:18:03Oh, and I'm ready for my final task. Whenever you are.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Whoever murdered Ryan has just tried killing Erin.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18Please tell me you found out who it is.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Bertrand.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25Everybody had motive, everybody had opportunity,

0:18:25 > 0:18:27whoever did this played on that.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30They've covered their tracks by implicating everybody else.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Someone is pulling the strings.

0:18:52 > 0:18:53Hi.

0:18:55 > 0:18:56Ssh.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02Still dead.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05We're still trying to find out who did this to you.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08Exposing the murder is not enough.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10Your life's in danger.

0:19:10 > 0:19:11You have to stop him.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14Him? You know who it was?

0:19:16 > 0:19:17Someone who wanted to get you through me.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20Someone who never wanted you here.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21That hardly narrows it down.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24Who stands to lose the most if Vlad doesn't marry Adze?

0:19:27 > 0:19:30Who's tried to kill you before?

0:19:30 > 0:19:31The Count.

0:19:33 > 0:19:34I thought being a vampire was bad enough,

0:19:34 > 0:19:36but caught in this limbo is torture.

0:19:36 > 0:19:40The vampire soul can't rest until it's had its revenge.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46Do this and I'll be at peace,

0:19:46 > 0:19:48knowing you are safe.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54You know what needs to be done.

0:20:06 > 0:20:08I'm missing something.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Everyone was there when Ryan died,

0:20:10 > 0:20:12so who had access to the murder weapon before that?

0:20:12 > 0:20:15Why didn't you tell me he was doing this?

0:20:15 > 0:20:17I've got the code for the heat sensor.

0:20:17 > 0:20:18What heat sensor?

0:20:20 > 0:20:23The one the Slayers Guild installed to keep tabs on the school.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26It's a need-to-know basis.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39Vlad?

0:20:44 > 0:20:45You killed my brother.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48Would you care to retract your allegation?

0:20:48 > 0:20:52Absolve yourself before you die?

0:20:52 > 0:20:54Argh! It was self defence.

0:20:54 > 0:20:58- He killed Ryan.- She's lying, there's no blood on these fangs yet.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01He's just making sure that nothing gets in the way of the wedding.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03- She's a liability, get rid. - You're not helping, Dad.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05Ryan's ghost came to me.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06Delusional to boot.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10There's no such thing as a vampire ghost.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Touch her again and I'll...

0:21:12 > 0:21:14What's funny?

0:21:14 > 0:21:18I told you, she's a liability and you just proved it.

0:21:18 > 0:21:21She's clouded your judgement.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24You're putting your own happiness above that of your people.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27What hope do you have of uniting vampires in peace

0:21:27 > 0:21:31when you're so preoccupied with a breather?

0:21:48 > 0:21:52The red dots are breathers, the blue ones are vampires.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59Everything is recorded, we've got the discs for the last few months,

0:21:59 > 0:22:02they're all in date order, so it shouldn't be hard to find.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11Right, that's earlier on tonight.

0:22:13 > 0:22:14And the night of Ryan's murder.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33BEEPING

0:22:38 > 0:22:40New bit of kit? What is it?

0:22:40 > 0:22:43The school's heat sensor recorder.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46That's got to be against our civil liberty.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48Not when it shows us who the killer is.

0:22:49 > 0:22:50What?

0:22:52 > 0:22:53Look.

0:22:56 > 0:23:00Here's Renfield in the kitchen on the night of the murder.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03He claims McCauley gave him the mortarboard,

0:23:03 > 0:23:04but...

0:23:06 > 0:23:07..that's not McCauley.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10It's blue, it's a vampire.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Now, at that time, Ingrid was in her room with Ryan,

0:23:15 > 0:23:18the Ramangas were in the training room, you were with me,

0:23:18 > 0:23:20and all the Scrap kids...

0:23:23 > 0:23:25..were all in class.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Maybe it's a glitch in the software.

0:23:27 > 0:23:28No, it's not.

0:23:33 > 0:23:34Look at this.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44An hour ago Erin claimed that Ryan's ghost came to her.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46There is no such thing as ghosts.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48She wasn't imagining it.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50What she saw was something that looked like Ryan,

0:23:50 > 0:23:52but it wasn't a ghost.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56It was a vampire. A shape shifter.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00You've cracked, mate.

0:24:00 > 0:24:03It's the only explanation.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23Going somewhere?

0:24:23 > 0:24:27I'm leaving. Your dad was right, I'm a liability.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30You can't listen to him.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33I have to go. The peace is more important than us.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35Then stay and see it through.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37I can't do this without you.

0:24:37 > 0:24:42I need your help, your strength, I need you.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44You need Adze.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49She is your only hope for peace.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51Marry her and you unite the vampires.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55You have one shot at this.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58Screw it up and Ryan's death will have been in vain.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00I can't live without you.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Peace isn't about us,

0:25:02 > 0:25:04and it's definitely not about who I get married to.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06- But it is.- But it shouldn't be.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08If the vampires want to survive

0:25:08 > 0:25:11then they could figure it out by themselves.

0:25:11 > 0:25:12Vlad, they won't.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15We leave tonight.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18You've got to see this.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21It's important.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23Go, you're needed.

0:25:27 > 0:25:28I won't be long.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41It's going to sound a bit out there, but look.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48I don't believe it.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52They've destroyed my evidence.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54Just tell me who it is.

0:25:54 > 0:25:59It's not one of us. It's a shape shifter. It's on these discs.

0:26:00 > 0:26:04They've been passing themselves off as McCauley, Ryan's ghost, even me.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08I swear I didn't nominate Malik for the Senate,

0:26:08 > 0:26:11that was the shape shifter you spoke to, think about it, it makes sense.

0:26:11 > 0:26:12But you don't have the proof.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15I know I'm right.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20I'll get the proof.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22When you have, catch them before they cause any more harm.

0:26:28 > 0:26:29My stuff.

0:26:38 > 0:26:43'You have one shot at this, peace is more important than us.'
