Salem - Season 3 Edit

A charade. An act of survival.

A girl made scapegoat

A great terror will soon fall upon Salem,

A little lost bird for my little nest?

A man of the people is only as big as the people.

A poor motherless girl.

A profession such as...

A promise easily made,

A servant in her own home.

A story about...

A story.

Aah!

Aah! Oh!

Abandon all hope.

Absolutely right.

Against all odds, still lives.

Ah.

Alden is my past. You...

Alice, I'm glad you came.

All good gardeners know

All is fair in love and war...

All my love...

All of Salem questions

All that matters is that we stop them.

Allow you to catch her in the act,

Already I've learned the attack

Among the refugee melee, and

An attack.

And all her promises lie, even now,

And all the hives that roamed this mossy orb.

And as such, he will be fed like a brother.

And baby makes three.

And barely escaped with her life.

And be ambushed by your allies?

And boys will protect you from the French and the Indians,

And bring me her blood.

And come Black Sunday,

And come by the end of the day. I promise.

And congratulations.

And Cotton would have had no choice but to turn his back,

And Deerfield.

And given ourselves over to his lust.

And handing this earth over to him.

And he intends to leave only ashes

And his ass licking servants.

And how did you come here, to Salem?

And how may I help?

And hunt those pheasants?

And I ain't afraid to tell it.

And I am generous enough to help you.

And I can take us there.

And I can?

And I say it to you now, brother, freely...

And I see no reason

And I will be the best mother this baby could have.

And I'll clear your name.

And I'm afraid.

And if we fail,

And it done no good.

And it's closer than you think.

And kill him with the dagger.

And left her no other course.

And mine is with child.

And my mother.

And neither do you.

And nobody was to be trusted.

And not come back before dawn.

And not now.

And now I must drag you from it.

And now there will always be a place

And now you would blame her?

And only one.

And our child safe.

And our worlds shall be his world.

And ourselves with it...

And out of the one...

And quite occupied.

And she harbors a great danger to you, Lord...

And stand beside me, not above me.

And stormed the very citadel of Heaven.

And strung up by your own innards

And that is precisely why I hate you.

And the day we finally respect ourselves

And the earth shall be scorched.

And the richest boy in Salem.

And there is not a soul alive

And there was no nest to hide me, so I built one.

And there's damn few of us that know the truth.

And there's only one way to change the future...

And there's still a price on your head.

And those who toiled to bake that bread

And to you.

And we all know that this...

And we are far from done.

And we both know what he does to those who disappoint him.

And we're gonna have our own law!

And what can the army do to me

And whatever I must do to make it so...

And with you?

And you believe those shriveled tree worshippers?

And you chose to send that boy,

And you know this?

And you must try and trust me, too.

And you never know what you raise.

And you stood by and saw her slaughtered.

And you stood by and saw her slaughtered.

And you'll feel her as I do.

And, in secret, I've conspired against you.

And, um, if you don't mind,

And... found men for me.

Anne Hale.

Anne Hale.

ANNE: We can find happiness, Cotton,

Anne?

Anne...

Another grows back even more hideous than the last?

Answer me this...

Any word yet on the Countess?

Appearances must be maintained.

Are attacking towns and forcing refugees our way.

Are coming down beneath a throng.

Are whores and widows.

Are you familiar with Cat's Cradle?

Are you...

Aren't you pretty?

Arrest him now.

As are we, Mary,

As did they.

As I try not to imagine the deadly danger

As long as you allow me my fair share.

As soon as you returned. So they had to keep you here

As the beloved child of Cotton Mather and his wife,

As the beloved child of Cotton Mather and his wife,

As war has heated up out of nowhere these past few weeks.

As we speak,

At present, this very house.

Awake, and now, finally...

Ba'al Zabub!

Ba'al Zabub! Come, brother! Now! Save me!

Baron Marburg... the very man I seek.

Be brave.

Beast!

Because surely as the sun is near rising,

Because you chose to leave Salem

Because you live like dogs!

Because your cowardly self

Been some time.

Before he draws his first breath of life on this Earth.

Behold the bride of Satan.

Bet she's halfway to London by now.

Better call it anguish. (CHUCKLES)

Beyond that door lies hell itself.

Black Sunday is coming.

Black Sunday still looms heavy.

Black Sunday will be a new beginning for us.

Blindness is the beginning.

Body and soul.

Boston... a family matter.

BOY: I give you back your freedom.

BOY: In grief begins wisdom.

Brother and sister...

Brother! Free me! You waste time!

Brown Jenkins feasts on your insides

Bullshit.

But a shifting tapestry of infinite threads.

But disposing of him permanently,

But do just this one thing for me.

But he will also work off his crime

But his brother is still here.

But I am deeply afraid of what he may do.

But I believe you may already know.

But I can change the way he feels about you.

But I can hardly confess

But I knew that's not what she wanted.

But I quite like this one...

But I think you may find

But I'm always aroused by delicate situations.

But if the smith should return with another story,

But if you must go, then go.

But in Mary's embrace I faltered

But in service of something greater.

But it gets you branded.

But it is hardly a week.

But it is impossible.

But let's talk about that later.

But Mary Sibley chose to become a witch.

But neither will hunger.

But no longer.

But not on my own account.

But not ours.

But not today.

But remember, she belongs to me.

But seeing John Alden alive and walking in our Salem

But serve the Devil,

But steps are being taken, I assure you.

But the father of lies betrayed us all.

But the primordial right of the Earth.

But we may compare our sufferings another time.

But what are you... doing here?

But you and I both know what kind of creature you truly are!

But you don't know the full truth, John.

But you killed her.

But you must not lose yourself in grief,

But you must tell me everything so I can help.

But you still have just enough left if you are careful.

But, my Lord,

But...

By bringing back the Devil himself

By cleaning our streets here for a period of one week.

Can you?

Can you?

CHILDREN: ♪ Married on Wednesday ♪

Choice is all any of us have,

Choose to start a plague?

Choosing you of all of them to help me.

Come back inside, and it will stop.

Come now, make her death a lie.

Come now, make her death a lie.

Come, my little bird.

Come.

Come.

Come.

Come.

Come.

Come. See.

Come... see him hanged.

Coming to bed?

Complicated witches.

Cotton Mather.

Cotton Mather.

Cotton Mather... a formidable soul.

Cotton, my son. Come closer.

Cotton?

Cotton?

Cotton?

Cotton?

Cotton.

Cotton.

Cotton's baby.

Could be any one of us.

Couldn't even rid Knockers Hole of him.

COUNTESS MARBURG: You made the wise decision,

Cut off one of his heads,

Dead I may be, yet I live on.

Dead?

Dearest daughter.

Deceived by Mary Sibley herself.

Deep inside us

Deliver this letter to John.

Deny his upstanding name to both of you.

Destroying those conniving Essex

Did I choose to slaughter innocents?

Did they ever mention a way to stop it?

Didn't even realize I was born a witch,

Didn't even realize I was born a witch,

Do no more of your foul magic here!

Do not abandon hope, you who enter here.

Do not give up on me.

Do not give up on me.

Do not give up, Cotton.

Do you hate me so?

Do you hate me so?

Do you hear me?

Do you know what this is?

Do you not recognize me, old friend?

Do you not see all I have done for you?

Do you see?

Do you think I want to do this?

Do you think your namesake asked to be chosen?

Does anybody know this man's name?

Does anybody know this man's name?!

Don't be a fool. You are but Thursday.

Don't bother.

Driven to fend for herself out in the dangerous woods,

Duty called.

Eight.

Employed in...

English.

Enjoy her.

Enough to stand up for ourselves,

Enough.

Even giving up the boy.

Even I know only a fraction,

Even in the great tomes of Greece

Even the ones who don't know it.

Even witch flesh.

Every flower, every blade of grass

Everything I've done, I've done for love...

Faithful to me and me alone.

Far from the roots of Salem.

Far kinder to him, far safer for us.

Far, far more trustworthy than you.

Father are you in there?

Father, I don't understand.

Finally, brother, you are here.

Five.

For a successful end.

For arranging this entertainment.

For even the corpse of Mary Sibley.

For her.

For lost doves like you in my house.

For now, we go on...

For once, old friend, rejoice.

For our wishes are his wishes,

For the crimes of others,

For the love of God, let us in.

For what you will do.

Forgive me if I hold my tongue, this time,

Forgive me, sister.

Freedom. The right to say no.

French and Indians burned all that we had.

From blood to bough,

From blood to bough, from skin to bone.

From cloud to sea,

From crown to throne.

From crown to throne.

From every dark place of the earth.

From skin to bone.

From the sack of blood you yourself drew from her.

Get behind me, child.

Get out before I change my mind.

Give it time.

Give me time. You will see.

Given up kingdoms for you.

Go away!

Go get some more wood.

God will see one of his kind creatures saving another!

God will strike you.

Good boy.

Good day.

Good day.

Good Sir Isaac the Idiot.

Got no place to make it in.

Has been decimated by the plague.

Hate you?

HATHORNE: Baron Marburg!

HATHORNE: I understand your fears.

HATHORNE: I understand your fears.

Have any hope of stopping him.

Have no fear.

Have no fear.

Haven't you guessed?

He can do nothing to thwart what is coming.

He can protect us!

He doesn't understand.

He doesn't understand... not yet.

He has fashioned himself into.

He hasn't spoken at Meeting.

He will destroy us.

He will not know.

He's here.

Heir to his throne

Hello?

Help me.

Help me.

Her flesh may be dead, but her spirit,

Here, amid all this turmoil...

Here, sir. Please.

Hers is the only will we carry forth.

His every breath is an intolerable risk to us...

His every breath is an intolerable risk to us...

Hold!

How can such things be?

How can you expect to stop Sebastian?

How dangerous it is to breech the wall of silence.

How dare you try to kill my bride.

How dare you.

How did he take it,

How does it serve you to destroy those you would rule?

How is hanging John Alden gonna protect us?

How was she?

How?

Hurry and we'll catch them!

I am forever bound to it.

I am here in my hut.

I am not your mother.

I am so proud of you.

I am Sunday. Black Sunday is my day!

I am the last of the Essex.

I am to be a father, John.

I am under no delusions.

I am your Anne, always!

I am your legal guardian,

I beg your mercy.

I believe in her past this girl was...

I believe...

I buried her...

I came across a wayward young lady

I can do so much.

I can hardly confess what I have had to do to learn this,

I can try.

I can't look at that man without thinking of Mary.

I can't say that I like it.

I cannot fight you, too.

I come only as a messenger.

I did it to save Cotton.

I don't even know who you are anymore.

I don't know if she'd rather we kept it safe

I don't want to harm you.

I don't... remember that either.

I don't... remember.

I draw a small cup nightly

I even stood by and watched you die

I fear this will bring about Black Sunday.

I gave you a simple test, and you failed.

I got your message and came at once.

I had no choice.

I had no idea.

I have a prison inside you.

I have a surprise for you.

I have already gained crucial information

I have already gained crucial information

I have ensured your child a healthy, happy life

I have ensured your child a healthy, happy life

I have loved and lost more than you shall ever know.

I have loved and lost more than you shall ever know.

I have no choice but to stay the course.

I have no choice. I am only doing what is best.

I have no intention of causing a scene here.

I have nursed her back to health, but I can do no more for her.

I have others to think of.

I have saved his child.

I have seen it.

I have...

I haven't heard the old tongue in eons.

I hope this is a new beginning for us.

I implore you to come to the Sibley house. Now.

I in here, you out there.

I insist that you tell me now.

I intend to teach you proper letters.

I just want to be safe (SNIFFLES) and fed and warm.

I know I am an unwelcome guest here.

I know what you are.

I know who you are, John Alden.

I know you don't care,

I know.

I leave you to your fate, Samael.

I left you free to move and speak.

I lived on nothing but grief for thousands of starless nights

I look forward to your love.

I love him. He is my husband.

I love you.

I may not be able to change in an instant

I may yet become a widow.

I must finish a few things.

I must first enjoy the feeling

I must have you and...

I must speak to you, my lord.

I nearly lay down in that grave beside her,

I need your blood more than you do.

I promise you, I will ask for nothing more.

I promise.

I really must thank you, Sebastian,

I refer to that shit sayer

I saved her from that ogress, Mercy Lewis.

I saw a chance to redeem my sins,

I see before me.

I see your long entombment has not improved your mood.

I sense a yawning emptiness in her womb.

I shall make many...

I should know.

I swear I haven't changed

I think we're being followed.

I think you hate what you've become.

I think you refer to the dreaded Hydra

I told you I can free us of him, and I will.

I understand completely.

I used to play Cat's Cradle when I was a girl.

I vouch for this man.

I was a lost bird, myself, once upon a time,

I was sent by Mary.

I was spelled.

I will be a loving father.

I will call the Magistrate and have you arrested.

I will come to you.

I will make you kill me.

I will not ask you to risk theirs or your own life.

I will not be used like this.

I will not leave you here.

I will not let my child be an orphan

I worship you. Ask of me anything.

I would...

I would...

I, as much as anyone,

I, too, am father to a witch's child.

I'd merely have words with you, Captain.

I'll tell you when it's over.

I'm better now.

I'm coming, Father. I'll help you!

I'm here, my love.

I've been expecting you.

I've got men all over the woods,

I've got work to do.

I've lived in those woods.

I've only become more capable.

I've seen quite a bit.

If any of us are.

If I cannot be a free man,

If I'm still around.

If it pleases you, Miss.

If not with a simple lie.

If only you would stop fighting and give me a chance.

If that is what your hatred tastes like,

If the boy finds out we killed his mother,

If the truth was easy to hear, everyone'd tell it.

If there's really any difference.

If this is your love, I hope never to see your hate.

If this is your love, I hope never to see your hate.

If we do, we shall have all the days and nights of our lives

If you have no magic, either,

If you know so much, why don't you tell everyone?

If you move or speak against me,

If you think this bunch of ill trained geezers

Imagine what she'd say if she saw us two...

In all those tomes,

In good time, all shall be revealed.

In hopes of seeing her again.

In just three days' time

In our thirst for revenge.

In the bowels of newly formed Hell,

In the darkness.

In the flesh.

In the meantime, you two must play your parts.

In the plain sight of children!

Indeed.

Indeed.

Indeed.

Indians, French devils... they murder us.

Into my cozy den of sin?

Is like a dagger.

Is not coming from outside of Salem, but from within.

Is she yours, Isaac?

Is what the craft of the witch is

Isaac has grown most popular,

Isaac is a truth teller!

ISAAC: Save John Alden!

ISAAC: What's become of Mary?

Isaac?

Isaac.

It has begun.

It is a delicate matter.

It is a grave hour I fear.

It is I who am grateful.

It is no use.

It is the way with so many of these girls

It is we Essex

It isn't your earnings I want a share of.

It was said to come from the bowels of the underworld.

It will all be over soon.

It will come from within.

It's a... family tradition.

It's around Salem's.

It's like I gave a puppy a bone.

It's my mother's blood.

It's no wine I sip.

It's time his body was found in the forest

It's time we talked about you...

John Alden will answer for it.

John Alden?

John Alden.

John, leave him be.

John, where is our son?

John. Jo...

Just know that the noose ain't around my neck.

Just like I'm going to kill you now.

Just worrying about your reputation, sir.

Kill him now, sister, or let me.

Kill me

Knockers Hole.

Lead the militia,

Leave me alone!

Leave the bottle.

Leave with me before Sunday's blood dawn.

Let me tell you

Let my truth be heard!

Let Salem burn.

Let the boy rant over his charred puppets.

Let them in.

Let us create a new life for you,

Let us not be modest.

Let... let... let go!

Let's play.

Lie for your own ears' sake,

Life is a force of nature

Listen to me.

Look after them, help them.

Look around you.

Look how that turned out.

Look. This is for you to take off

Love each other or die.

Made an example of.

Makes me feel closer to her.

MAN: (LAUGHS)

MAN: (SPEAKING FRENCH)

MAN: Give him his freedom!

MAN: Hold weapons!

MAN: Lord magistrate!

MAN: The enemy are at our borders, murdering.

MAN: Yeah, let us in!

Mary is gone, but John Alden still lives.

Mary Sibley chose to do those things.

Mary Sibley has already been cast out

Mary Sibley is finished.

Mary Sibley?

Mary Sibley.

Mary was able to draw it out of Sebastian.

MARY: I saw my son die.

Mary.

Me or the boy.

Me? I had no choice.

Mercy, a pleasure.

Mercy, Alice is here.

MERCY: Get your strength back.

Mercy?

Mother! Mother!!

Mother! Stop!

My baby...

My beat.

My boy hasn't had sustenance in two weeks' time

My boy...

My child...

My child...

My dear Anne...

My dear, this is Miss Mercy.

My dearest John,

My dearest John,

My dream comes true.

My every heartbeat is ignited by the thought of you.

My every heartbeat is ignited by the thought of you.

My eyes are inside you.

My family castle lies far across the ocean,

My father's nothing now.

My knife needs to be forged by my own two hands.

My Lord is the surviving nephew of the late George Sibley,

My lord, I have a grave indiscretion to confess.

My Lord, no!

My Lord, no!

My love for you rules all that I do.

My parents died of the plague.

My place is now your place.

My quarters are private, indeed...

My reputation?

My sins will burn along with the rest of us.

My sister seems uncertain as to her role here,

My sleep produced only a monster.

My true brothers will rise from hell

My Uncle took me to Knockers Hole

My very essence as a Seer.

My witch blood has quickened the speed of life itself.

Name it.

Need to make me a knife.

Neither backward nor forward.

Never had no wife, as you well know, John Alden.

Never wash yourselves.

No idea at all what is coming.

No one may sacrifice another.

No work for you tonight.

No, dear Cotton,

No, don't do this!

No, it cannot be.

No, no, no, no.

No, you can't!

No! No, no, no!

No! No!

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No. No, I swallowed the bitter taste of evil,

No. The attack will not come from the forests.

None of us have.

Nor are you.

Nor its power.

Nostoah nanaeel olani noasmi...

Not all of us together

Not anymore.

Not anymore.

Not I, but Brown Jenkins.

Not to me.

Not to mention smelling awfully of rat.

Nothing I don't intend to pay for.

Nothing.

Nothing.

Now bear the the responsibility I bore.

Now come to bed.

Now do you believe me?

Now I can't shake her.

Now mother will think it is done,

Now she's gone, and I have nothing.

Now t'will be our power coursing through our sister.

Now you and Mary Sibley have got to take it back.

Now you feel her, don't you?

Now,

Now, what brings this pale paragon of Puritan virtue

Now, what is it you wish to speak about?

Now, who do we have here?

Of ancient myth.

Of blessed memory.

Of course not.

Of free movement for a moment.

Of polite society...

Of so much dissent.

Of the line that betrayed us

Of which you are a proprietor.

Oh, brothers and sisters gathered here

Oh, do they make love in hell?

Oh, don't let that stop you, dear brother in law.

Oh, I remember.

Oh, mother,

Oh, sure. Hang me.

Oh, why...

Oh, yes.

Oh! I came to see the Madame of the house.

Oh! Ohh!

Oh.

Ohh!

Once and for all...

Once you were the source of Mary's power.

Once, we raised an army of brothers

One...

Only a woman.

Only because of the remarkable women

Only by stopping he who wields it.

Only he drinks all the money...

Only that you be true to your word.

Only themselves.

Only today, we have captured the notorious outlaw

Only you, child.

Only you, child.

Open it.

Open the way!

Open the way.

Open up for me.

Open up, dearest.

Open your mouth and your heart,

Or burned it to the ground.

Or could be.

Or not return at all,

Or the boy you would enter... to my mother,

Or their contempt!

Or washed up in the harbor.

Or washed up in the harbor.

Our brothers must be released.

Our chance.

Our father has come home.

Our god, their Devil, is alive,

Our homes are being burned.

Our militia...
