Dad! I wobbled it and it came loose. I touched it with my tongue,
and then it started bleeding, and then Mom put it in some tissue.
-Translation? -[chuckling] One of his teeth fell out.
[both chuckling]
Such a brave soldier, this boy.
You know what the best thing about losing a tooth is, don't you?
You hide this under your pillow tonight,
the Tooth Fairy will come, take the tooth away,
but leave some money for you to keep.
[squealing]
[woman breathing heavily]
[woman growling]
Mommy?
[screaming]
[opening theme music playing]
[horse whinnies]
[indistinct chatter]
[upbeat music playing]
[customer] I say, that young lady took something. Did you see?
[shopkeeper] Hey, you! Stop!
[man] Officer!
[Dr. Watson] You've been avoiding me, girl.
I have another case for you to look into.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but your predicament indicates
you've struggled to find other means of employment.
I believed you and your friends would willingly aid in our investigation
because I saw morality in you.
Well? How's this for morality?
If I steal, I do it because my friends and my family need me to.
Take a trip to the gallows.
You'll have all number of murderers
telling you they did it in the name of necessity.
I don't wanna work for you. None of us do.
If I leave this cell without us coming to an accord,
you will be brought before a judge and sent to the workhouse.
You can't make me go back there.
-I won't go. -At least in the workhouse you'll be fed.
Unlike your sister.
[Daimler] Going somewhere, Your Highness?
Louise is at the palace. I've decided to spend the next few days with her.
I'm afraid I can't allow any change in your usual routine
unless I'm informed otherwise, sir.
Oh, really, Daimler, you are such a stick in the mud.
I think I'm quite capable of making sure he's all right.
Come now, brother.
I don't know what it is you're planning, but my involvement ends here.
-I'm not sneaking you off the grounds. -You don't need to.
Thank you.
It's a girl, isn't it?
[Louise] Just be careful.
[Dr. Watson] Children's teeth are being stolen.
As always, the press are approaching the matter
with their usual lightness of touch.
Addresses of the two victims.
They've agreed to be interviewed.
I also took the liberty of checking the police logs.
There were sightings of a ghost lady on the night in question.
These locations are all in the Balham area.
My sister says she thinks people are getting strange powers from somewhere.
Is that what's going on?
Just focus on the case in question.
There are things at play here far beyond your comprehension.
You said you knew my sister had powers because you'd seen them before.
How did you know that?
Do you not remember?
When I came into your house…
and you were on the floor.
-You were hurt-- -You listen to me.
What I know or do not know is none of your business.
You are at liberty today at my behest and you remain so upon my goodwill.
Step foot in my house again,
you will be dragged back to a cell,
and this time, no savior will come calling.
Do I make myself clear?
[shouting] I am not breaking into 221B.
If he's gonna force us to work for him,
I'm gonna find out everything I can about him and his business partner.
I'm not doing it. The guy's a psycho. Imagine if he caught me.
He probably has a torture chamber, probably one with…
sex equipment in it and stuff.
-[scoffs] Man. -[Bea] Look…
either you break into 221B or you help us with the job.
I'll go to Balham with you to look into these sightings.
-[hesitating] Um, I don't know, Jess-- -None of you can do what I do.
It's why the doctor asked us for help in the first place.
Because of my abilities.
You need me, Bea. I'm coming with you.
Billy, you go and interview the victims.
We said we weren't gonna work for him again. We all agreed.
I wouldn't let him put you back in the workhouse.
He's not some guy you can beat up, Billy.
He's connected to the police somehow and God knows who else.
-How do you think he got into my cell? -I don't care. I wouldn't let it happen.
-You'd beat up the whole police force? -Not all of them.
A quarter of them, then the rest of them would shit themselves and back off.
Listen, uh…
Bumble…
[sighs nervously]
Good afternoon.
Hello, Beatrice.
What are you all doing?
[Spike scoffs]
[Jessie] We're working on a new job.
Well, I'd like to help if I could.
Depends on whether you think you can spare us the time, I guess.
If you really wanna help, you can go with Billy on the interviews.
-Wait, what? -Actually, Beatrice, I thought I might--
Well, you thought wrong.
Either help with the interviews or piss off.
[girl] Did you hear about the Tooth Fairy?
When one of your teeth falls out, it can smell it.
It comes and takes the rest of them out of your mouth when you're asleep.
Dear God, please don't let my tooth fall out.
Please.
I'll be good.
And I'll always do my best.
Amen.
[shudders]
[whispering] Please…
Mother!
I think there's something outside.
[screaming]
Okay, so, two of the sightings were around this estate.
All right, well… how about I go this way, you go that way.
We'll meet back here in half an hour?
Jess.
I don't need you holding my hand anymore, Bea.
[eerie music playing]
Hi.
Do you live around here?
Are people angry at me for some reason, Billy?
-[indistinct conversation] -[scoffs]
[lively piano music playing]
-[man] Enjoy the show. Thank you. -Thank you.
If people are ticked off with me, I have the right to know why.
Do yourself a massive favor, Leo, and shut up for a minute, yeah?
Sorry, I'm looking for a couple of your employees,
Laura Machin and Carla Machin.
Keep your voice down.
No one here at the Hippodrome knows.
What would they think if they found out her teeth had been stolen? By some demon?
No one wants some toothless girl selling ice cream.
It's not exactly a good image.
Look, we have to go.
Just one question, Mrs. Machin, please.
The night that this thing took Carla's teeth,
she left a tooth under her pillow?
No.
She lost her last baby teeth a couple of years ago.
Wait, so it just came and took her teeth at random?
It took all her adult set.
Now she's gonna have to wear dentures for the rest of her life.
Dentures at nine years old.
All the kids on the street won't even play with her anymore.
Show 'em, love.
Ah, there you are.
-Hi, sorry to bother you. -Is everything all right?
Yeah. It's a bit of a weird one.
Strange things have been happening in this part of town--
Are you talking about the ghost lady?
You'd better come inside.
I like your ball.
Shall I put the kettle on?
Is that your son outside?
[screeching]
Come on.
[Spike] "John Watson."
[reading] "Dear John, it has come to my attention
that the members of the Golden Dawn…"
What the hell is a Golden Dawn?
[door opens]
[door closes]
-[man breathing] -[bed creaking]
[man playing violin]
[playing off tune]
Oh, shit.
[man vomiting]
[mouthing] What the fuck?
Jess?
Jessie?
God damn it, Jess.
[gasps]
Back.
Back away from her.
[Billy] Mr. John Cooper?
Hi. Sorry to disturb you.
Is that your son?
-Hi there. -Don't speak to him.
Don't even look at him.
-Go and beg somewhere else. -I'm not a beggar.
-I'm helping investigate-- -I don't care who you are.
And what on Earth is that supposed to mean?
Do I know you?
No.
What's a lad like you doing hanging around with a rat like this?
-I really feel like there's been some-- -Go on, boy. Try it.
I dare you.
I'm a retired captain of the British Army and a professional bodyguard.
I'd absolutely destroy you.
Just so you know…
I'm only on the streets 'cause my dad was in the army, too.
Only…
he wasn't lucky enough to come home.
You have a nice day.
She breathed on me.
It was like anesthetic gas or something.
The powers must, like, warp who you are.
Warp your soul or something.
Jess.
[man snoring]
[chiming]
Ah!
Sex dungeon.
Jesus Christ.
Oh, my God.
What happened when you used the board? Where are your powers coming from?
Tell us.
She doesn't have to.
I can go into her mind like I did the Bird Master.
Let me guess. You don't want me to.
Jessie, I get the message.
But can I just remind you that I literally just saved you
from getting your teeth pulled out.
This is… You don't even know how it works.
Yes, I do.
Get out of my head.
I'm not in here to hurt you.
I just need to know where your powers came from. Once I've seen, then I'll go.
Daddy. If you're there…
please let me know.
Please help me.
Help me.
What is it that you wanted? Why are you stealing people's teeth?
Get out of my head.
Who was it?
Your father?
[woman] Oh, my God. Call the police!
[Jess] Did he kill himself?
Why are you stealing teeth?
Leave here.
No!
[screaming]
[Jessie] You think I'm losing it, don't you?
[Bea] You're a mess, Jessie.
You've not been sleeping, have you?
-[screaming] -[young Bea] Get away from her! No!
[screaming]
What did I say to you? What did I say to you about getting in the way?
-[young Jessie] Bea! -[older Jessie] Bea!
[Tooth Fairy] This is your memory.
Don't play a game of remembrance if there's things you've tried to forget.
[Bea] Christ, you all right, Jess? What happened?
I think she's trying to get revenge on someone.
Someone she blames for her father's suicide.
[Leopold] Billy.
Billy, stop.
-[Leopold] Billy! -Wanna know why I don't like you, Leo?
Why people are annoyed at you?
Everywhere we go, people like him, people like you, treat us like that.
Like shit.
I'm not like him.
I've met lads like you hundreds of times, Leo.
You're a dabbler.
You're so posh and so rich that life's become boring.
You thought it might be fun to hang with poor people.
-Just come and go as you please. -No, you're wrong.
Maybe even sleep with a poor girl.
Poor girls don't matter.
You can just use them, then dump them back in the gutter.
You don't know anything about--
-[cracks] -[gasps]
What's wrong with you?
Show me.
Jesus Christ.
Why didn't you say something?
-I didn't wanna slow the investigation. -Is it your joints or what?
Please don't tell anyone I slowed us down. And please don't tell anyone--
-What? Why would I tell anyone? -Please, Billy!
I just said I wouldn't, didn't I?
I don't even know what you're talking about.
[sobbing]
It's not just my leg. I…
I seem to collect ailments.
When I was born,
the doctor told my mother he'd never seen a human being so unsuited to life.
-He'd never seen one as broken as I. -Jesus.
That's where you're going wrong, son.
Can't go around telling people you're broken.
You're here, aren't ya?
Thanks, Billy.
I'll go get the boys. You interrogate her, get her to talk.
Interrogate her how?
I don't know. If we don't find out what she's up to, someone's gonna die.
Whatever you do, don't let her get into your head.
She's dangerous.
She's powerful.
[sighs]
I see you.
-What? -I see you.
Because you and I are the same.
You and your sister were in the workhouse.
Which means you lost your parents, too.
Well, imagine you found out that your mom was murdered.
And imagine you had an opportunity to hurt the person who did it.
You'd kill them.
No.
I'd want to, for sure.
-But I wouldn't. -[scoffs]
You're lying to yourself.
I've seen how you were treated.
If you suffer at the hands of monsters like we did,
it's just a matter of time before you become one yourself.
Monsters make monsters.
My father worked his whole life to build this business,
to put food on the table, for it to be taken away
because of the dirt it was built on.
Well, tonight, that dirt, this precious land,
will be used to destroy him.
-[breathing shakily] -Jess, what're you doing?
Where is she?
What the actual fuck?
[Jessie] Bea!
Look.
What is that?
It looks like it's alive. Like the skull is growing from the teeth.
When I first arrived at the house, she was burying something here.
-I didn't see what. -Guys.
Was that William Cooper and Carla Machin?
What in the name of Christ is going on?
She's growing clones of people. Using the teeth.
Who is it? Who are you trying to kill?
"This precious land will be used to destroy him." That's what she said.
She was talking about the clones.
Who owns the land in Balham?
Well, the Duke of Winchester.
He owns all the land south of the Thames from Wimbledon to Greenwich, but…
Oh, God.
What, Leo?
The Duke of Winchester.
He's one of the richest men in England, incredibly well-protected at all times.
If she was going to kill him, she'd need to get past his bodyguards.
I'm a retired captain of the British Army and a professional bodyguard.
I'd absolutely destroy you.
That's John Cooper.
What's the connection to the girl, Carla Machin?
The duke sponsors a show every year. There were posters in the Hippodrome.
-That's where it's gonna go down. -You're too late.
They do my bidding.
He will be killed in front of hundreds of people.
How fast can you get to that theater?
About five minutes to the Hippodrome, Your Grace.
I suppose it's too late to just go for a pint instead? [chuckles]
[indistinct chatter and laughter]
Don't forget to restock the spoons. There's gonna be a full house.
[breathing heavily]
[muffled screaming]
-[audience applauding] -Thank you, thank you.
Babies and gentlehens, boils and gerbils,
welcome to the Duke's Variety Extravaganza!
-[audience cheering] -Oh, you are kind. Simmer down.
What a show we've got for you tonight, ladies and gentlemen.
Did you see the fire breathers on the way in?
Reminded me of…
-[inaudible conversation] -[giggling]
Yeah.
William!
[crowd gasping]
What happened to you?
Good God. Is that your son, John?
Whatever you think he did, this is not the way to fix it.
I know how awful it is to lose someone.
I never knew my dad. My mother died when I was little.
How did your mother die?
She… went crazy
and used to wander off at night.
And then one night she wandered off and she went into the river.
She fell,
and I can't put it into words, the pain of it.
And I don't have to, because you know it.
But my friend here says the duke has a young daughter.
Remember what you said?
"Monsters make monsters."
If you do this, then imagine what she would become.
There's only one way this can be stopped.
But you think yourself too moral for it.
[breathing shakily]
What is she doing?
And there he is. Ladies and gentlemen, please give a big hand for His Grace.
[Duke] I would like to say a few words to say thank you for your patronage.
As you know, the theaters and music halls are the beating heart of society.
-I'd like to make… -…a speech.
Young lady, I don't think this--
-Shut your mouth! -[audience gasps]
It's begun.
I would like to say a few words about His…
…Grace.
Ten years ago, His Grace decided he would raise the rent
on hundreds of properties on his land.
Many people, hard-working people…
…including a man called David Gates, my…
…dad, could not afford to pay that fee.
-What are you doing here? -Where's the duke?
-I haven't got time for this! -That is not your son, John.
It's a dummy, a copy of him. I don't know how to explain it.
Check his teeth, Mr. Cooper. Check his teeth.
-Bea, what are you doing? -She said there's a way to stop it.
But she doesn't think I'll do it. We can stop it if we kill her.
The duke's estate…
…told him that if he went to prison then I would have to pay his bill.
I was 16 years old.
You took my parent from me…
my dad.
He was the only person in this world who loved me.
He left me a note which said…
"It is better for you if I go."
No, I can't.
I can't do it.
Well, I say this…
It is better for us all if you go!
-[gunshot] -[audience screaming]
-Jesus! You all right? -I'm wearing a soldier's vest.
Get Lucy and the duchess. Meet us in the green room.
You, come with me.
-You… -…bastard!
It didn't work.
They stopped it.
We did it. It's over.
Proud of yourselves, are you?
Saving the life of a man who deserved to die?
No one deserves to die. Not even you.
You still think you got out of that workhouse with your soul intact.
It's pathetic.
I'll go and find the doctor.
I can't be here anymore.
[Leopold] Bea!
-I'm not a dabbler. -What?
The other day.
I shouldn't have left like that after all we'd been through.
It was rude of me and I apologize.
I don't know you, Leo.
It's not any of my business where you go.
I'm not here out of some perverse desire to take advantage of people.
I'm here because I like you.
All of you.
And I know I may seem different, but we're actually the same.
I don't think you're a dabbler, Leo, but we're not the same.
That's not your fault. You are who you are.
Put it this way.
I'll be sleeping in a damp, shitty cellar tonight.
Where will you be sleeping?
Guys! I looked out the window and…
the teeth, the skull that was growing, it's not in the ground anymore. It's gone.
It's not over.
I'm gonna go see where their carriage is.
Stay in here with the duke and his family. I'm gonna lock you in.
Anyone comes through this door who isn't me, you hurt them. All right?
[Bea] Who was it?
Who did you grow?
[breathing heavily]
What's happening, Papa?
Nothing to worry about, dear.
Who are you?
I'm Billy. I'm working with your husband's security detail.
-Nice to meet you… -…Billy.
Did they tell you what's going on, darling?
Yes.
Someone is trying to kill you.
And perhaps that's because you are such a loathsome human being.
-[grunting] -[girl] No! Mother, stop!
You're a fool to try and save him, boy!
Anyone who tries to stop me will meet the same…
…fate!
[both grunting]
Get off him!
Kill her!
[gasping]
-I can't. I can't do it. -She's gonna kill him.
I can't!
Bea, it's Billy!
I'm sorry, boy. Let me make it quick…
…for you.
[struggling]
Bea, if you don't kill her right now, he's gone.
[breath trembling] I… killed her.
[breath trembling]
You didn't have a choice, Bea.
I didn't have a choice.
You guys saw. You guys know.
Okay?
Hey.
Hey, look at me.
Look at me.
That's not your mom.
Your real mom's okay. We'll find her.
She deserves better than this.
You don't know her, Leo.
-Don't pretend you know what's best. -I know it isn't this.
Well, what is it then?
You?
How do you know so much about the duke, Leo?
-Everyone knows about the duke. -Do they?
I don't and I'm pretty sure no one else does.
[bells tolling]
What? Past your bedtime, is it?
You'd better be off.
No, actually.
I'm not going.
I'm not going anywhere.
[mumbling]
[breathing heavily]
[voices whispering]
-[footsteps approaching] -[gasps]
[screaming]
No! No. No, no.
[growling softly]
[gasping]
Oh, God, you look awful.
Thanks a lot.
Was it another nightmare?
I can't keep having them.
It's okay.
I get it.
I used to have them, too.
I can't stop them,
but I might be able to do something to help you, if you let me.
May I?
Next time you're in a nightmare…
hold your wrist here…
and you'll leave it.
[laughs softly] Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Oh, I wish I didn't live so far away.
I wish I was in London to help you.
I did what you asked.
I dived into their minds.
With the Tooth Fairy,
it felt like the door to the other side was left open,
and the power there was available to anyone.
Someone has found a way.
There's a barrier between this world and the spirit world.
Usually, it's only crossed at birth or the point of death,
but someone has ripped open the gateway.
And the longer people reach over to the other side for power,
the more that rip will widen…
until eventually…
the barrier between this world and the next will collapse.
Our world will cease to exist.
[chuckles softly]
When I sensed you awakening,
I knew something had caused it.
The nightmares,
the terrors,
are manifestations of deep disturbances caused by the opening.
How do I stop them? How do I go back to normal?
You need to find…
…the Rip.
If we find it, then we might be able to close it.
Then all this stuff will stop happening. All the things I see, they'll disappear.
And you were right, Bea.
When the Rip gives its powers, it takes the negative,
most darkest side of a person and warps it.
It makes a monster out of who you are.
Did he have any idea where this Rip might be, Jessica?
It's here in London.
He's sure of it.
There was a map of London in 221B.
It had all these weird markings on it and it was in this weird room, it was…
like a temple or something.
It had a spirit board in there, and I found this letter.
"John."
John Watson.
That's the doctor's name.
He knows more than what he's telling us, much more.
If we wanna find this Rip…
I say we start there.
[Bea] "The Golden Dawn."
Beatrice.
It's you.
How… How do you know my name?
Who are you?
My name is Holmes.
Mycroft Holmes.
