A
different course of action — Leon is pissed
and passed out, so Malachi decides they might as well
do away with him. Mephistopheles does not agree, but he's
not the one with the power now.
A
nephelim makes its way to Leon's face, but Leon breaks
the St. Jon's Wort-laced bottle at it, which gets him
an escape route. He runs away from the slo-mo low-budget
Nepehelim and Thelma hears him crying out.
Ella's
room — Mephistopheles finds Thelma, who's
pacing. Mephistopheles goes on about dreams and fears
and tells Thelma to find a way to speak to sleeping Ella.
So
Thelma goes back into Ella's dream, and wakes her with
fire. That's enough to make Ella remember that long-ago
life in which she was nearly burned as a witch. And it's
enough to make Ella wake up in the real world, and see
Thelma, and recognise that Leon needs her. Well. That
wasn't so difficult.
Think
I better run, run, run — Leon runs from
the nepehlim, smashing through paper walls and falling
against a slightly more sturdy wall as the nepehlim continues
its slo-mo orchestrated pursuit.
In
the nick of time (of course) Ella the anointed one slays
the nepehilm, with a little help from the knife Leon stole.
Medenham
— Mephistopheles scowls and watches. And
pouts a little.
The
shower — Raphael waits for Ella, to congratulate
her. And to seduce her, apparently, which is disgusting.
Ella clutches his crotch and sets things straight.
Raphael:
"God has decreed that you will serve me!"
Ella: "I don't serve anyone.
Creep back to your master, Raphael, and tell him I work
on my own."
Nice.
Maybe I like you again, Ella.
Yes,
maybe I definitely do — Ella takes Malachi
by the throat and slams him against the lockers.
Ella:
"So. Let's get this clear once and for all.
Any feelings I had for you, they've gone. Any doubts
about the job I had to do, gone. So put your armour
on, Malachi: it's time to go to war.
Ella's
room — Ella takes care of Leon, who's sporting
a bad set of scratches, courtesy of nephelim claws. She
apologises to him and declares they're a good team.
Ella
wonders how Malachi worked out that Leon was going to
do him in. Leon knows there's only one logical conclusion.
Cut to Thelma, on a sofa in the cellar, sobbing. You should
be with Maya, pretending nothing's happened! But then
I wouldn't like you as much.
NEXT WEEK ON HEX: Ella confronts
Thelma; Malachi almost gets knifed in the gut; Maya loses
everything.
