Short filmTranscript
00:00Hello Chicago! In the latest news, Joe's sloppy house was closed due to suspected cannibalism and rodent molestation!
00:07Yikes! Not again!
00:09The midnight news never fails to put me to sleep.
00:11Breaking news! I mean Richard Frost and teen heartthrob Ethan Frost were spotted this afternoon.
00:18I see one more article about those slime balls.
00:42That's not a raccoon.
00:45Hello Ivy.
00:55No!
01:00No!
01:05Okay. Rational explanations.
01:08Cosplayer.
01:09A lost Halloween enthusiast.
01:11A very committed Rappoon in a costume.
01:14Or a murderer. That works too.
01:20Let me in Ivy.
01:22I won't bite.
01:25I'm gentle as can be.
01:33Good girl.
01:34Be afraid of the weapon.
01:37A scythe.
01:38Now let me in.
01:39Or I'll cut you into ribbons and wear you as a tie.
01:42Not from here you won't.
01:43Then I'll find another way in.
01:45Where? All the doors are locked. My parents make sure every night-
01:48You forgot your window.
01:50I'll walk slowly.
01:51I'll walk slowly.
01:52So you actually have a chance.
02:04Either I'm losing my mind or something very, very wrong just found me.
02:10This is so much fun!
02:12Fun is nice.
02:13Not where I do I choose.
02:18Mama! It's here! The monster!
02:20What do you want from me Susie?
02:21This is the fifth night!
02:35Why?
02:36Why do I do this to myself?
02:48Oh look that costume is amazing!
02:50So realistic!
02:54We need to get off this ride.
02:56Now.
02:57Honey, it's just actors.
03:09Can we leave?
03:10I think I touched hay.
03:13I'm going to be an angel!
03:14You.
03:15An angel.
03:16And you should be the devil.
03:18Since your name is Ivy.
03:20Like, Ivy is poison.
03:21That's ironic, right?
03:23That's not how irony works, but sure.
03:27Try it on. I'll find my wings.
03:39Are you okay? You look pale as a ghost.
03:43Technical difficulties with the costume.
03:48Hey, where's that Grim Reaper display?
03:51Had to take it down.
03:52He tends to scare the customers.
03:54On the house.
03:56Cupcake.
04:08Leela, what time is it?
04:10Uh...
04:117.45, I think.
04:13Leela, time is it!
04:15Ah!
04:18Oh my god!
04:20I killed him!
04:23Don't go out there!
04:25What if he's a zombie?!
04:29Sir, are you okay?
04:31Oh, the egg Johnny!
04:32My chest!
04:33It feels like it's on fire!
04:34Do you want me to call an ambulance?
04:37At least you didn't hit me at 70 miles with a pointy car.
04:39Oh, wait.
04:40You did.
04:46I'll give you 20 seconds.
04:49Since your shirt is seen through.
04:52One.
04:53Two.
04:55Three.
04:56Four.
04:58Five.
04:59Six.
05:00Seven.
05:00Seven.
05:03Eight.
05:06Seven.
05:06Glober IT!
05:12Calm down. It's not the same guy.
05:22Oh my god! Thank you so much for helping her!
05:25No problem. Always here to help.
05:29Don't bother. You won't see my face.
05:31Why are you following me?
05:36Holy crap. Is there a black hole under there?
05:39I'm hungry.
05:41Why are you following me?
05:43You're number one on my priority list. Don't tell anyone about me.
05:47Your friend is lucky she's clueless or I'd kill her.
05:49See you at the party tonight, 8 o'clock. I know where you live.
05:52Your mother is very nice, by the way.
05:53Oh my god! Go!
05:54Wrong.
06:03That guy who saved you was gorgeous.
06:06Wait, you saw his face?
06:08He was two inches from you. How did you not?
06:12His... his hood was up. His face was covered.
06:16He had no hood on, Ivy.
06:20Mom? Dad?
06:22Mom?
06:22I'm Mr. Buttons and I love to sing a song.
06:27I'm Mr. Buttons and I love to sing a song.
06:31I'm Mr. Buttons and I love to sing a song.
06:34What the fuck?
06:37Stop it!
06:40Greg...
06:41Grab my hand and we can sing along.
06:45I'm Mr. Buttons and I love to sing a song.
06:50Dear Ivy, I suggest killing yourself with this knife before I kill you and have tons of fun with it.
06:55Do you like swimming? I heard you're an excellent swimmer.
06:57I also heard you like spiders, gory horror movies, dark places, and heights.
07:04I could do something with those.
07:06See you later, Cupcake. Your worst nightmare.
07:09P.S. Don't tell anyone about me unless you want them dead.
07:15Fine. You want to play games? I'm going to that party.
07:23You want to play games? I'm going to that party.
07:28Yo, is that you, Ivy? You look smokin'. Must be an alternate universe.
07:35Don't touch me, the Y.
07:38Oh, she just owned you, bro.
07:41Have you seen Lila?
07:42The kitchen or the pool, I'm not sure. Everything's blurry.
07:49Ivy, you look so cute. Do you want to swim? I have extra bikinis.
07:54Sure. Sounds great.
08:00Ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a dry little lady. You know what that means?
08:05Dunker! Dunker!
08:07Come on, just dip your toes in.
08:09Jake, stop!
08:11I can't swim! Please!
08:14When I was little, I fell off my dad's boat. I almost drowned.
08:17I've been afraid of water ever since.
08:42Don't fight me.
08:44It'll make this harder for you.
08:58You're okay. Nobody's going to hurt you.
09:05Who are you?
09:08A friend.
09:13Remember that.
09:18I made out with George.
09:21You guys broke up.
09:23He cheated on you.
09:25You're just jealous because I have all the guys and you have nothing.
09:30At least I don't.
09:31He's coming.
09:32What?
09:33Ivy, Ivy, Ivy!
09:38Come with me and you'll be safe.
09:46Get off my property, Arden.
09:48And put a shirt on, you tool!
09:50Demonstrate your power.
10:10Pepper, how did I get here?
10:31You were dead asleep when we got home.
10:33How was the party?
10:35Fine.
10:36Mom, did anyone come to the house yesterday while you were gone?
10:40No, why?
10:42No reason, Mom.
11:03A rational person would go to the police.
11:05A sane person would delete these texts and move on.
11:07But there's something about him, about the way he appears and disappears, the way everyone sees him differently than I
11:12do, and that makes me feel like the police can't help me, like this is something else entirely.
11:17Hey, wasn't that party amazing?
11:20You don't remember anything weird happening?
11:23I remember dancing.
11:25In the pool.
11:27Enjoy the jiltsets.
11:28I mean the guy.
11:30The one who grabbed me.
11:32What guy?
11:33Never mind.
11:53Teen heartthrob Ethan Frost is missing.
11:56Teen heartthrob Ethan Frost is reportedly transferring to a Chicago public school for a grounding experience, according to his father,
12:02billionaire Richard Frost.
12:03In can F-R-O-S-D ice calming air?
12:06Great.
12:07Because my life isn't chaotic enough.
12:10Oh, Ivy.
12:16Ivy?
12:18Ivy!
12:23I'm fine.
12:25Just a stomach thing.
12:38You'd think a celebrity walked in.
12:40A celebrity did walk in.
12:42Oh my god, his jaw.
12:48He looked at you.
12:49He looked at everyone.
12:55You're the only person not staring at me.
12:58Congratulations.
12:59Won a trophy?
13:01I'm Ethan.
13:05I know who you are.
13:06You were on Vogue.
13:07Naked.
13:10I had my hands strategically.
13:12I don't need the detail.
13:16I don't need the detail.
13:17I don't need the detail now.
13:34I don't need the detail.
13:35I don't need the detail.
13:36I don't need the detail.
13:37Ahihihi Oh my gosh.
13:45You can't be here.
13:47Wait.
13:47This is a school.
13:48I can be wherever I want.
13:50Take the hood off.
13:51No.
13:51Why?
13:52Because the last girl who saw my face couldn't stop screaming.
13:56Because you're ugly.
13:58The opposite, actually.
13:59That's not why she screamed.
14:01Are you going to kill me?
14:02That set the plan.
14:04Then why haven't you?
14:07You're complicated.
14:08That's not an answer.
14:09It's the only one you're getting.
14:17I'm supposed to reap your soul, Ivy Morgan.
14:19That's what I do.
14:21I'm death.
14:22Death.
14:23The one running.
14:24And the sight that.
14:25The threats.
14:26The creepy notes.
14:27Occupation.
14:28Then why warn me?
14:30Why give me 20 seconds to run?
14:32I saved me from choking on a taco.
14:34Like I said, complicated.
14:38Stay away from Arden.
14:40And Frost.
14:41Neither of them want what's best for you.
14:43And you do?
14:44I want you dead.
14:46But apparently I'm having trouble following through.
14:54He's death.
14:55Actual death.
14:56And somehow that's not even the scariest part.
14:59The scariest part is that I believe him.
15:09Balance was created by the others.
15:12The original angels to monitor good and evil in the world.
15:18Doing homework on me?
15:19I'm flattered.
15:20Stop watching me.
15:22The book is mostly wrong.
15:23But the part about the world ending?
15:25That's accurate.
15:29How long have you been there?
15:32You snore, by the way.
15:34I do not.
15:36Why are you in my room?
15:38The balance is shifting.
15:40Faster than it should be.
15:42Something is accelerating it.
15:43And whatever it is, it's connected to you.
15:45Me?
15:46I'm a 17-year-old, a cat, and a stomach problem.
15:49I'm not connected to anything.
15:51Your stomach problem is the connection.
15:53Those opinions you keep getting, that's the balance reacting to you.
15:56You're different.
15:57I was sent to kill you because certain forces believe your existence was disrupting everything.
16:01And do you believe that?
16:03I don't know what I believe anymore.
16:05Which is a problem.
16:06Because I've been doing this for centuries and I've not known.
16:10Centuries?
16:11I'm a mold, Ken.
16:13Very old.
16:15Arden is an angel.
16:16He wants to use you.
16:18Ethan Frost's family isn't what they seem.
16:20And I'm supposed to be one who ends you, so trust no one.
16:24Including you?
16:25Especially me.
16:37You'd explain everything.
16:39I said I'd show you everything.
16:42Warning.
16:43What you see might change things.
16:45Just take it off.
16:51Hideous?
16:52Terrifying?
16:53Both?
16:54You're beautiful.
16:56And that makes you more terrifying.
16:58Most people see what they want to see.
17:01What is this?
17:03The real me.
17:05Whatever that means at this point, boy.
17:08So now what?
17:10Now you know what death looks like.
17:13You're still standing here.
17:15Which means, EZ, either you're incredibly brave, Freddy.
17:18Or incredibly stupid.
17:19I was gonna say stubborn.
17:21I have questions.
17:23Lots of them.
17:24I know.
17:25That's the problem with you.
17:26You never stop.
17:34Tomorrow your rooftop.
17:36Don't bring anyone.
17:49So, your death.
17:51Like, the death.
17:52One of them.
17:53There's a hierarchy.
17:54I handle high-priority cases.
17:56And I'm high-priority because?
17:58Because you shouldn't exist.
17:59The balance flagged you 17 years ago.
18:02A soul that doesn't fit.
18:03Not fully human.
18:04Not fully anything else.
18:05My orders were to eliminate you before you disrupted the system.
18:08But you didn't.
18:09I was the one who pulled you out of the water when you fell off your dad's boat.
18:13You were six.
18:15You looked up at me with those stupid big eyes and I hesitated.
18:18I never hesitate.
18:19That was you?
18:21My dad said it was one of his friends.
18:24I made him think that.
18:26So you've been watching me for 11 years.
18:29A sign to you.
18:30There's a difference.
18:32Is there?
18:33Look, the elders want you dead.
18:35Arden was sent to recruit you for Heavenside before I could finish the job.
18:38And the Frost family.
18:39Richard Frost isn't human.
18:41Neither is Ethan.
18:42They're playing a game you can't see yet.
18:44What game?
18:45Control of the balance.
18:47Whoever controls you controls it.
18:50I'm not a weapon.
18:52To them, you are.
18:54So what are my options?
18:56I die, get recruited, get used?
18:58Or I make a deal with you.
19:00I keep you alive.
19:01Buy us time to figure out what you actually are.
19:03In exchange?
19:04In exchange?
19:06You stay close.
19:07You do what I say.
19:08And you don't trust anyone else.
19:09You literally told me not to trust you.
19:12I told you I was supposed to kill you.
19:15The fact that you're still breathing should tell you something.
19:17Deal.
19:24We need to talk about your new friend.
19:27I don't have any new...
19:30Don't insult my intelligence, Ivy.
19:32I can smell death on you.
19:34He's manipulating you.
19:36That's what he does.
19:37He collects souls.
19:38He doesn't save them.
19:39He saved mine.
19:41When I was six.
19:42Because he needs you.
19:44Elders who believe your soul is the key to stabilizing the balance.
19:48If it's reaped properly by a degree of anything,
19:51end that shift toward vol.
19:52Reaped properly?
19:53You mean killed?
19:55Sacrifice.
19:55There's a difference.
19:56Funny.
19:58Everyone keeps telling me the difference between things that sound exactly the same.
20:02I'm trying to protect you.
20:04By killing me nicely?
20:06Death will turn on you.
20:07It's in his nature.
20:08When the time comes and his masters demand your soul, he'll deliver it.
20:11He always does.
20:12I'm offering you a choice.
20:14Come with me and I can at least make sure it means something.
20:20Here's my choice.
20:21No.
20:22I'm not dying for anyone's cause.
20:24Not his.
20:25Not yours.
20:31He's already breaking rules for you, Ivy.
20:34And when heaven notices, and they will, they won't punish him.
20:37They'll punish you.
20:41Will you?
20:44I haven't decided yet.
20:46That's not reassuring.
20:59You've been avoiding me.
21:00I've been busy.
21:02Busy with the guy on the motorcycle?
21:04How do you know about him?
21:06I notice things.
21:08My father notices things.
21:10Your father doesn't know I exist.
21:12He wanted me to invite you to dinner.
21:14Oh, he knows exactly who you are, Ivy.
21:18Look.
21:20I'm not the enemy.
21:22Come to dinner.
21:24Saturday.
21:33Were you listening?
21:35I'm always listening.
21:44Do you sleep?
21:46No.
21:47I eat?
21:48Don't need to.
21:49But I like tacos.
21:52Do you feel things?
21:54I'm not supposed to.
21:55That's not what I asked.
21:57I felt nothing for centuries.
21:59I reaped souls, followed orders, existed in the spaces between life and death.
22:04Then I pulled a six-year-old girl out of the ocean.
22:06And she looked at me like I was a person instead of a nightmare.
22:11Damien.
22:12Don't.
22:14Don't say my name like that.
22:16Like what?
22:17Like it matters.
22:21Why like cupcake?
22:23What?
22:24You keep calling me cupcake.
22:26Why?
22:27When I first found you when you were six on the boat, you were holding a cupcake.
22:31Pink frosting.
22:31You offered it to me after I pulled you out.
22:34You said, here's scary, man.
22:35You look hungry.
22:36I don't remember that.
22:38I never forgot it.
22:44Don't go to the frosts.
22:45I mean it.
22:46Give me a reason.
22:47Because if something happens to you in that house, I will burn it to the ground with everyone
22:50inside.
22:51And that would be very bad for the balance.
22:56Ivy Morgan.
22:57I've been looking forward to meeting you for quite some time.
22:59You know my name.
23:00I know much more than your name.
23:02I know what you are.
23:04And what's that?
23:05An anomaly.
23:06A soul the balance can't categorize.
23:08Neither fully light nor fully dark.
23:10Do you know how rare that is?
23:12I'm starting to get the picture.
23:14The elders want you destroyed.
23:16Death was dispatched to do it.
23:17And yet, here you sit.
23:19Alive.
23:20Which means our mutual friend has gone rogue.
23:23I'm offering you protection, Ivy.
23:25Real protection.
23:26Not whatever sentimental arrangement death has cooked up.
23:28In exchange for what?
23:30Your cooperation.
23:31Your soul has the power to tip the balance permanently.
23:34I intend to use that power to reshape the world.
23:36With you willingly at my side, the transition would be smooth.
23:39And without me?
23:41Considerably less smooth.
23:43For everyone you love.
23:44Dad.
23:45Quiet, Ethan.
23:47Thank you for dinner.
23:48I'm leaving.
23:53The door is locked, dear.
23:56Sit down.
23:57We have so much to discuss.
24:03I told you not to come.
24:06Death himself crashing through my window for a human girl.
24:09How romantic.
24:10How pathetic.
24:11She's not yours, Frost.
24:13She's not yours, either.
24:14That's the delicious part.
24:21When I say run, run.
24:25She can't run from destiny.
24:28Run!
24:31This way.
24:31Why are you helping me?
24:35Because my father is insane.
24:37And I should have warned you sooner.
24:44Father isn't human.
24:45He hasn't been for a long time.
24:48He made deals.
24:49Dark ones.
24:50For power.
24:52He wants the balance broken, not balanced.
24:54What about you?
24:58I'm his son.
25:00I didn't get a choice in what I am.
25:03But I'm choosing now.
25:11Get your hands!
25:13Tsar!
25:14Frost!
25:15Incan.
25:16I just saved her life.
25:18I said, let go!
25:23We're leaving now.
25:32You're bleeding.
25:34I don't bleed.
25:35There's literally blood on your face.
25:40It'll heal.
25:42What is Richard Frost?
25:44He was human once.
25:46He sold his humanity for power.
25:50Strong enough to hurt me.
25:52Which means strong enough to destroy you.
25:55And Ethan?
25:56Born half-corrupted.
25:57He helped me escape.
25:58I noticed.
26:00You came home for me.
26:02I told you I would.
26:03You said you'd burn the house down.
26:06I considered it.
26:07This can't happen.
26:09What can't?
26:10This.
26:12Whatever you're feeling right now, it's a bad idea.
26:17I'm feeling grateful.
26:18You're feeling more than that.
26:20I'm taking you home.
26:21Your parents will be worried.
26:23Damien?
26:23Don't.
26:29Heaven has made its decision.
26:31About you?
26:32You.
26:33They've issued an order.
26:34Your soul is to be collected by me before Richard Frost or Death can use it.
26:37I tried to give you time, Ivy.
26:39Time's up.
26:40I thought you said you'd protect me.
26:43This is protection.
26:44If Frost gets your soul, the world ends.
26:45If Death keeps defying orders, they'll destroy him and take you anyway.
26:48At least with us.
26:49Your sacrifice means something.
26:51There's that word again.
26:53It won't hurt.
26:55I promise.
26:59Touch her again and I will end you.
27:02Angel or not.
27:07You condemn her!
27:08You can't protect her from heaven and hell!
27:12Watch me.
27:19Stop!
27:20Both of you!
27:26I'm not a weapon.
27:27And I'm not doubting for anyone's plan.
27:29Do you hear me?
27:31You lied to me.
27:33And you...
27:34You should have told me they were coming.
27:42I know you're awake.
27:43Your light is on.
27:44Go away.
27:45I can't.
27:46Can't or won't?
27:47Both.
27:51You have 60 seconds.
27:53I should have told you about Heaven's Order.
27:55I found out three days ago.
27:56I thought I could handle it before it reached you.
27:58You thought you could handle it.
28:00Like I'm a problem to be managed.
28:02That's not...
28:03That's exactly what it is!
28:05You, Ardenfrost, everyone's managing me.
28:07Planning around me.
28:08Nobody talks to me!
28:12You're right.
28:13What?
28:14You're right.
28:15I've spent 11 years watching over you
28:16and I still treat you like a mission
28:17instead of a person.
28:19Old habit.
28:19Tell me everything.
28:21Right now.
28:22No more it's complicated.
28:24No more you're not ready.
28:25Everything.
28:26When you were born, the balance fractured.
28:28Not because you're evil.
28:28Because your soul is neutral.
28:29Perfectly, impossibly neutral.
28:31You contain equal parts light and dark.
28:33That's never happened before.
28:35You're the living embodiment
28:37of what the balance is supposed to be.
28:39So I am the balance?
28:41I'm a living anchor for it.
28:42If your soul is reaped and given to Heaven,
28:43the balance tips permanently toward good.
28:45Sounds nice.
28:46But it would destroy free will.
28:47If Frost gets it,
28:48the balance collapses into chaos.
28:50The balance holds!
28:52As long as you breathe,
28:53the world stays in equal rhythm.
28:54That's why you're a weapon.
28:55Alive, you're a lock on Pandora's box.
28:57So the only way to save the world
28:59is for me to survive.
29:01And the only one assigned to kill you is me.
29:03What happens to you
29:04if you define your orders?
29:06Obliteration.
29:07Not death.
29:08Death can't die.
29:09Erasure.
29:10Like I never existed.
29:11Every soul I ever reaped.
29:12Every moment.
29:13Every memory gone.
29:13Even the memory of me.
29:16Then why are you still here?
29:18Because for the first time in centuries,
29:22there's something I'm more afraid of losing than myself.
29:24Your 60 seconds are up.
29:26I know.
29:30Thank you all for coming.
29:32This is a terrible idea.
29:33For once, we agree.
29:35Richard Frost is coming for me.
29:37Heaven is coming for me.
29:39The only way I survive
29:40is if the three of you
29:41stop trying to kill each other
29:43and start working together.
29:44My father has allies.
29:45Dark ones.
29:46Demons.
29:47Corrupted spirits.
29:48People in power
29:49who sold their souls to him.
29:50He's been building an army for years,
29:52waiting for this moment.
29:53And heaven won't wait much longer.
29:55If I don't deliver your soul,
29:57they'll send someone who will.
29:58Someone less.
30:00Merciful.
30:01Define merciful.
30:03You try to rip her soul out
30:04in the school hallway.
30:05I was trying to spare her
30:07a worse fate.
30:09Enough.
30:11Here's the plan.
30:13Arden, you buy us time with heaven.
30:15Tell them you're still working on me.
30:17Lie if you have to.
30:19Angels don't.
30:20Learn.
30:21Arden's jaw tightens,
30:22but he nods.
30:23Ethan,
30:24you know your father's operation
30:26from the inside.
30:27His weaknesses,
30:28his schedule,
30:29his allies.
30:30I need everything.
30:31If he finds out I betrayed him,
30:34he'll...
30:34I know.
30:36That's why it has to be careful.
30:38Ethan swallows hard.
30:40Nods.
30:41And Damien.
30:43Let me guess.
30:44Stay close.
30:45Protect you.
30:46Don't kill anyone.
30:48Can you handle that?
30:50The don't kill anyone part
30:53is going to be challenging.
30:54I can feel you
30:56imagining my death right now.
30:58It's the only thing
30:59getting me through this meeting.
31:01Boys, focus.
31:02Richard Frost wants the balance broken.
31:04We're the only thing standing in his way.
31:06So either we work together
31:08or the world ends.
31:10Pick one.
31:11Truce.
31:11Truce.
31:12Am I part of the truce too, or...
31:14Don't push it, Frost.
31:17So then he says...
31:21You've been so quiet lately, honey.
31:23Everything okay at school?
31:25Just stressed midterms.
31:28That's my girl.
31:30Always worrying.
31:31You know what I say.
31:32Take it one fish at a time.
31:35That's not a saying, Dad.
31:38It is now.
31:39I invented it on the boat.
31:54Do you ever wonder
31:55what it would be like
31:57to be normal?
31:59I was never normal.
32:03Humor me.
32:04If I were normal,
32:06I'd probably have
32:07terrible taste in music,
32:09work some dead-end job,
32:10ate too many tacos.
32:12You already eat too many tacos.
32:15See?
32:16I'm halfway there.
32:18After tomorrow,
32:19if everything goes wrong...
32:20It won't.
32:21But if it does,
32:22I need you to know...
32:24Don't...
32:24Don't say it like a goodbye.
32:26I'm not saying goodbye.
32:28I'm saying thank you.
32:30For the boat.
32:31For the tacos.
32:33For every time you were there.
32:35Even when I didn't know it.
32:37You offered me a cupcake
32:38when you were six.
32:40No one had ever given me
32:41anything before.
32:42Damien?
32:44Yeah?
32:45If we survive this,
32:46I'm buying you
32:46a whole box of cupcakes.
32:48I'll hold you to that cupcake.
32:52My father is on the plunge,
32:54the ritual chamber.
32:55Am I he exiting a break
32:56to grab that door?
32:57I replied,
32:58I can walk without
32:58without the real anchor present.
33:00That wise it holds
33:00original to reach your ritual.
33:02If she's close enough,
33:02he can siphon it
33:03without her consent.
33:04Then why are we
33:05walking toward him?
33:06Because if we don't
33:07stop him tonight,
33:08he'll come to you.
33:09At your house
33:10with your parents inside.
33:11Let's go.
33:17I'll clear the path.
33:18Move fast.
33:23Stay behind me.
33:29Top floor.
33:30Two more flights.
33:33What was that?
33:35He started the ritual.
33:38Right on time, Ivy.
33:40Knew you'd come.
33:41Your soul recognizes
33:42the balance's pain.
33:44You can end it.
33:45All you have to do
33:46is let go.
33:48No.
33:49Dad, stop this.
33:50Quiet, son.
33:52Or join the offering.
33:56You want her soul?
33:58Come through me.
33:59With pleasure.
34:06Come through me.
34:31The balance is breaking.
34:32If that signal completes,
34:34it's over.
34:37It's over.
34:47Ethan.
34:48Ethan, wake up.
34:51The signal.
34:53It needs a soul
34:54to activate.
34:55Any soul.
34:57He designed it
34:58to work with yours.
34:59But what?
35:00If someone else
35:00steps into the center
35:01willingly,
35:02someone with enough
35:03supernatural energy
35:04could overload.
35:05Short circuit the whole thing.
35:27You chose a human
35:30for eternity.
35:31and how poetic.
35:33How poetic.
35:34How stupid.
35:37Run.
35:38No.
35:40Ivy, no!
35:42If you step in,
35:43he'll take your soul!
35:45I'm not giving him
35:46my soul.
35:47I'm using it.
35:52What are you doing?
35:54You'll destroy the channel!
35:58That's the point.
36:04No!
36:06I spent decades!
36:14Son.
36:15Son.
36:22Ivy!
36:23Ivy!
36:24Her soul is intact,
36:25but it overextended.
36:26She poured everything
36:27into breaking the signal.
36:28She's...
36:29She's what?
36:30Fading.
36:31Don't you do this to me!
36:33Don't you dare!
36:34You owe me cupcakes!
36:35Remember?
36:39Yeah, cupcake.
36:40We won.
36:46You're crying.
36:47I don't cry.
36:49There's literally tears
36:50on your face.
36:51Shut up.
36:57The doctors say
36:58you passed out
36:59from exhaustion
37:00and some kind of
37:00electrical event.
37:02They're baffled.
37:03Sounds about right.
37:04Ivy,
37:04I know something happened.
37:06Something bigger
37:06than what you're telling me.
37:07I'm not as clueless
37:08as everyone thinks.
37:09I know you're not.
37:10Will you tell me?
37:12Someday?
37:13Someday.
37:14I promise.
37:19Heaven has recalled the order.
37:20Your survival proved
37:21something they didn't expect.
37:22That the balance
37:23doesn't need a sacrifice.
37:25It needs a guardian.
37:26A living one.
37:26So they're leaving me alone?
37:28For now.
37:29Possibly forever.
37:30You've changed the equation, Ivy.
37:31They're recalculating.
37:32Angels recalculate?
37:34We're learning.
37:35What about you?
37:37I've been reassigned.
37:38Observation duty.
37:39Apparently watching over Earth
37:40is my penance for going rogue.
37:42Take care of yourself, Ivy Morgan.
37:44The world needs you breathing.
37:47Hey.
37:48Hey.
37:49My father's gone.
37:50The company,
37:50the mansion,
37:51the empire,
37:51all of it's being dismantled.
37:52I'm 18 with nothing.
37:53You have yourself.
37:55That counts.
37:56You sound like a motivational poster.
37:58You're welcome.
37:59I'm leaving Chicago.
38:00Starting over somewhere
38:01nobody knows the Frost name.
38:02I just wanted to say thank you
38:03for seeing me as something
38:04other than his son.
38:05You were always something
38:06other than his son, Ethan.
38:08You just didn't know it yet.
38:11Goodbye, Ivy.
38:12Goodbye, Ethan.
38:22You came.
38:23I always come.
38:25The elders,
38:25your superiors,
38:26what are they going to do to you?
38:28They offered me a choice.
38:29Continue as a reaper,
38:31new assignment,
38:31new soul,
38:32forget everything.
38:33Or.
38:33Or?
38:34Become mortal.
38:35Lose my power,
38:36my immortality,
38:36my position.
38:37Start from zero.
38:38Live and eventually die.
38:39Which did you choose?
38:43I figured I owed you one.
38:4411 years late.
38:45You chose mortal.
38:47I chose you.
38:49You're going to be terrible
38:50at being human.
38:52Probably.
38:52I don't know how to do taxes.
38:54Or cook.
38:54Or sleep.
38:55You'll learn to sleep.
38:57I eat too many tacos.
39:00We'll work on that.
39:01No more scythe?
39:02No more scythe.
39:04No more death threats?
39:05I might keep the nickname.
39:07Cupcake.
39:10So,
39:11that's what that feels like.
39:13Welcome
39:13to being human.
39:19Here's what they don't tell you
39:20in bedtime stories.
39:21Good doesn't always conquer evil.
39:23And evil doesn't always win.
39:24Sometimes,
39:25against every odd,
39:26they find balance.
39:27Thanks.
39:27Everybody does.
