Into the Badlands

Previously on AMC's "Into the Badlands"...

Master is a liar.

Sometimes, a novice's gift has to be cleansed.

I'm getting the hell out of here. They'll catch you.

- You're outnumbered and unarmed. - We gotta go.

- Let's go! - (ENGINE REVS)

You're the only reason that I'm still alive.

Align or die.

I am making an alliance with Quinn.

Veil!

My son is dead. I get to kill Quinn.

Hello, Lydia.

_

We need a healer!

What's wrong with them?

Gaspers.

No? You don't get out much, do you?

It's poor man's opium.

Not too poor, I hope.

Are you the healer?

Depends what ails you,

and what you have to trade.

She told us to come here. Said you were a friend.

Bring her inside. Right away.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, look.

Didn't I tell you?

- Hmm? - (HENRY MOANS)

Didn't I tell you?

Look how big and bright...

- (EXHALES) - (HENRY CRIES)

Shh, shh. Hey.

She's close.

- Right here on the other side. - (GASPS)

She's close.

- (HENRY CRYING) - (WHISPERS) Hey.

Shh.

Ah.

You came to kill me.

No, I came to avenge my son.

Our son.

His death hurt me more than anyone.

Well, then at least some good came from it.

Did you find Veil?

We're still looking.

Then don't return without them.

It's treacherous for a woman and child

to be all alone in the woods.

Another pretty young thing has abandoned you?

Oh, when are you gonna learn, old man?

They'll never love you

no matter how hard you try to make them.

You were never one for honeyed words.

You always spoke your truth, no matter how foul.

Maybe that's why you were Baron of two territories

before you cast me aside.

- Hmm. - Now look at you.

Lord of nothing.

And yet you came back to me. Hmm?

Only to put a dagger through your heart.

Do it.

Ryder hesitated when I gave him the chance.

- (GROANS) - (BREATH TREMBLING)

Oh.

Yeah, this is why I loved you first. Hmm?

You were never afraid to take what you want.

Yeah.

- (EXHALING HEAVILY) - (LYDIA'S BREATH TREMBLING)

She's gonna live.

Amelia tells me I got you to thank.

Anything you need, it's yours.

We need fuel.

And the fastest route to the Wall's checkpoint.

The Wall? (SCOFFS)

No one goes through the checkpoint unless they're in chains.

But you're welcome to any gas I got left.

With night coming on,

it'll be pitch black out there.

And you ain't going anywhere till morning.

I'm the reason why she got cut.

Why'd you tell me something like that?

You want to get me all riled up?

Smack you in the face?

Tell you what a bad man you really are?

Well, maybe you're not a good man.

Maybe there are no good men.

But I've seen a lot of bad ones.

And trust me, son...

You ain't that bad.

Odessa! Why aren't you training with the others?

And why did you want me to meet you?

I'm not staying here.

I heard the rumors.

Your Baron's making an alliance with Quinn.

Who told you that?

I belonged to that man for seven years.

My father died in his poppy fields.

If The Widow's with him,

then she's no different than all the rest.

- Oh, yes, she is. - Why?

Because she lets you call her "Mother"

instead of "Master"?

I've been traded from one Baron to another

since I was old enough to walk.

And trust me, they're all the same.

So you can call your Baron whatever you like.

She still makes girls like us go out and die for her,

doesn't she?

You're wrong.

I call The Widow "Mother" because she gave me life.

I was property too once.

A house cog for The Widow's husband.

And every night

after she went to sleep,

he would knock on my door.

He could have had any Doll on Wall Street,

but he didn't want them.

"You can't pay a Doll to love you," he said.

Not like his little Tilda.

That was the worst part.

Having to say those words, while he panted like a dog

on top of me. "I love you, Baron."

One time, I forgot to say it.

He made sure I never forgot

ever, ever again.

So, I stole a bread knife from the kitchen.

I sat on my bed that night

with the knife, waiting to plunge it

into my heart the moment I heard him knock.

I waited.

And I waited...

But the knock never came.

The next morning,

The Widow asked me to forgive her for not killing him sooner.

That was the kindest thing that anyone had ever done for me.

That was the first time I said "I love you" to anyone and meant it.

Okay.

I'll stay.

But not for The Widow.

Tilda.

Widow's looking for you.

Waldo, wait up.

- Back there with Odessa, it's... - Cut the shit.

Look, I don't care who you wick.

But don't you forget what I told you about Sunny.

Don't you let some crush cloud your good judgment,

because that kind of thing can get you killed.

And I was just starting to like you.

Almost.

Look. More runaways.

I don't know where we're gonna put them.

We're running out of space.

Veil?

Is that...

Is Sunny with you? Is M.K.?

I need to see The Widow.

You thieving little shit.

No one steals from me.

You're afraid of a little blood?

Please. Please, I'm sorry.

You will be.

M.K.

Ava.

The Abbots are gonna come after us.

We need to move.

I can't imagine what Quinn has put you through.

But you'll be safe here with us now.

Both you and Sunny's boy.

I promise.

Thank you.

Heard you were the one who was gonna help us

get out of the Badlands.
