The first 200 lines.
Previously, on "Shadowhunters"...
I need the family ring.
I'm gonna ask Magnus to marry me.
-Have you been drinking? -I lost my magic. Twice!
I'm just a has-been warlock who isn't good for anything.
What I'm feeling now, it may never pass.
- Listen to me... - You can't!
Just let me be here with you.
Watching Alec fall apart over Magnus,
I'm not sure I want love in my life.
I don't know if this whole love thing is really for me.
Let's make a pact. Single for life.
- I love you, Jordan Kyle. - I love you, too.
I never meant to scratch you, Maia. I swear to God.
You just left me there and never came back.
I was stabbed with silver.
The Praetor is the only place that can treat silver poisoning.
Jonathan.
- Where are we? - Siberia.
- The apartment can move? - Cool, huh?
The demonic tether that binds me to Jonathan...
I can feel it. It's this darkness. It's growing...
- What were you thinking? - The rune...
Every time I get close to the edge, you pull me back.
We found a way to destroy the Twinning rune.
I'm sorry. This is the way it has to be.
Clary! Clary!
- Becky? - Surprise.
What are you doing here?
Visiting my little brother.
What are you wearing?
Do you not know what day it is?
Wednesday.
It's Halloween.
I'm a vampire.
Okay. All right, that's pretty cute,
but you know that we don't all actually wear capes.
Yeah, apparently you wear sweatpants and T-shirts.
I think I'll stick with the cape.
- So, where's your coffin? - My coffin?
- Yeah, don't all vampires sleep in one? - No, I sleep in a bed.
Huh. Okay, let's get going.
You're never too old to trick or treat.
I've had a really long week. I don't really wanna go out tonight.
Simon, it's tradition.
When have you, me and Fray ever missed a Halloween together?
Clary can't tonight. She's on duty at the Institute.
Right. With the Shadow-slayers.
Shadowhunters.
I still can't believe that Clary has half-angel blood
and tattoos that give her powers.
- And those tattoos are called runes. - Whatever.
The Shadow World is a very dangerous place, okay?
I've seen people get hurt just for knowing about it.
Well, it's too late for that.
Simon, I didn't fly all the way up from Florida
to sit on your couch and play Xbox.
I came here to hang out with you on Halloween,
because that's what we do.
Fine. Just give me a couple of minutes to throw together a costume, okay?
What? There's no need.
You've got a built-in costume for life.
Come on. Don't be shy.
Oh, my God.
It's getting dark. Maybe we should head home soon.
- No way. We just started. - Three hours ago.
How about one more block?
- What'd you get from the last lady? - Two Ring Pops.
What the hell? All I got was Tootsie Rolls.
- Maybe 'cause your costume's lame. - At least my mom didn't make mine.
Guys, look.
Cool costume.
All right. Okay, you're scary.
Let us by, please?
Where do you think you're going?
Jace, hold him up!
I hate Halloween.
*SHADOWHUNTERS: The Mortal Instruments* Season 03 Episode 18 Episode Title: "The Beast Within"
Good morning.
Or good evening, I should say.
A good 15 hours of sleep was exactly what I needed
after last night's little hiccup.
It was more than a little hiccup.
You said some things.
That was the bourbon talking.
I'm fine, Alexander.
I'm just sorry I ruined the fabulous dinner you had planned.
It's not the dinner I'm worried about.
Hey.
Is now a bad time?
Actually...
Not at all.
What is it?
On the hunt, we came across a Drevak demon.
Yeah, which is weird, right? They usually keep to the sewers.
Maybe the holiday noise is drawing them out.
Yeah, it could be.
The streets are packed with idiots in costumes.
Hey, I used to be one of those idiots.
Shocker.
- What... I love Halloween. - So do I.
Every year, I would use my magic to decorate an entire city block in Brooklyn.
Fond memories.
Brief ops on the demon.
My mother has been dying for somebody
to help her decorate her new shop.
Now, I know it's not a Halloween block party,
but what do you think?
I suppose I do have an eye for design.
Will you be joining us?
Maybe later.
Yeah, I have this meeting I can't miss.
With who?
Clave business.
Hmm.
That drive took forever.
You're the one that wanted to stop for coffee twice.
Did you want me to fall asleep at the wheel?
Now back to harsh reality.
Bartending and rebuilding the pack.
I'm so not ready for this.
Yes, you are. You are gonna make an amazing alpha.
What makes you so sure?
You're the kind of person that would drop everything for a friend
and stay by his bedside till he recovers.
Well, you did take a silver dagger in the gut for me,
so it was the least I could do.
Besides, I'm just glad the Praetor Lupus cured you of your silver poisoning.
Yeah. Me, too.
I am sorry they let you go.
It was for the best.
The Praetor's mission is to help Downworlders in need, and I failed.
So, what are you gonna do now?
I don't know. Maybe I could cross a few things off my bucket list,
and go to Fiji and finally surf the breaks off Namotu Island.
Well, don't make any major life decisions on an empty stomach.
You haven't had anything since breakfast.
Take a seat. I'll order you something.
Who would you like to commune with, my dear?
A long-lost relative? A fallen friend...
Asmodeus.
Prince of Edom.
I'm sorry. I don't understand.
Don't you think the whole blind fortune-teller thing
is a little bit tired?
Look, I know you're a warlock, and your power to channel spirits is real.
Are you gonna help me or not?
Channeling demon royalty, that's quite a request.
It'll cost extra.
Very well.
I will try to channel Asmodeus.
But he will only come if he desires it.
Alexander Gideon Lightwood.
- You know who I am? - Of course.
Clever idea, calling on me this way.
I wasn't gonna risk summoning a Greater Demon into New York again.
But I had to speak with you.
And how is my son?
Miserable. He told me that he'll never be happy again without his magic.
So, please, if you ever cared about Magnus, return what you stole.
What I stole?
My son gave me his powers willingly...
to save his lover's parabatai.
Pathetic.
It's not pathetic. It was a selfless act.
And one he already regrets.
Immortals aren't meant to grow wrinkled and grey.
In time, Magnus will come to resent you, until the bitter end.
I'm here to prevent that future.
To get him his magic and his immortality back.
Fine.
I'll restore both.
Under one condition.
End your relationship.
What?
You are the source of all his suffering.
You make him vulnerable, weak.
With you, he'll never reach his full potential.
You're wrong. We love each other.
I wouldn't just abandon him.
Then I'm afraid you will be the death of him.
Magnus would never agree to it.
Don't give him the choice.
In fact, Magnus can never know about our little arrangement,
or else the deal is off.
Break his heart to save his life.
- You should really lose the costume. - Why?
No one else is wearing one.
What are you talking about? Look, that guy's dressed as a devil.
Okay, he is a warlock. And those horns are real.
Really?
All warlocks have an animal feature, a mark.
Oh.
So, how do they hide these marks every other day of the year?
A glamour. It's the magic we all use
to hide our supernatural traits from mundanes, such as yourself.
But tonight, all glamours are down.
Halloween's the one night we get to just be ourselves.
Wait, did you just say "we"?
Maia's a werewolf. I forgot to mention that.
