1. Well, just great!
Copy !req
2. No, not the presentation.
That's terrible. Some idiot just hit me.
Copy !req
3. Do you realize how much
this is going to cost?
Copy !req
4. Not in money,
which I have plenty of, but in...
Copy !req
5. What the...
Copy !req
6. Get away from me! Get away!
Copy !req
7. Help me. Someone help!
Copy !req
8. Stay away!
Copy !req
9. What are you doing?
Copy !req
10. Look out!
Copy !req
11. Wonder Woman! Save me! Save me from them!
Copy !req
12. - From whom?
- Demons.
Copy !req
13. They're everywhere. Don't you see them?
Copy !req
14. I see only one.
Copy !req
15. I'll ask you one last time.
Copy !req
16. What did you do with my family?
Copy !req
17. Steven, it's me, Gloria!
Copy !req
18. I'm your wife.
Copy !req
19. These are our children.
Copy !req
20. You're not my family!
You killed them, just like the others.
Copy !req
21. Now it's your turn.
Copy !req
22. - No one's dying here tonight.
- It's not me you should be stopping.
Copy !req
23. It's them. Look at them!
Copy !req
24. Look at them!
Copy !req
25. It's just like the neighbors.
Go to my shed. You'll see I'm right!
Copy !req
26. What have you done?
Copy !req
27. Let me help you.
Copy !req
28. It's not my fault.
Copy !req
29. I've given birth to the devil.
It's the devil!
Copy !req
30. You're tired. Give me the baby.
Copy !req
31. You don't want to hurt her.
Copy !req
32. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
33. These crimes were committed
by law-abiding citizens.
Copy !req
34. They all claim to have seen
nightmare visions beforehand.
Copy !req
35. - Any clue what's causing it?
- No idea.
Copy !req
36. The one week I fill in for Jordan,
and it couldn't be some hairy-ass monster?
Copy !req
37. The same pattern is repeating
around the world,
Copy !req
38. so there could be an overriding factor.
Copy !req
39. Perhaps a paranormal element.
Copy !req
40. Are you talking about magic?
Copy !req
41. We've come up against
magic before, Batman.
Copy !req
42. - Xerxes, Trigon, Felix Faust.
- Even Shazam's powers are based in magic.
Copy !req
43. With as much as you've seen,
can you rule it out?
Copy !req
44. The criminally insane
don't need magic as an excuse.
Copy !req
45. I recommend spending more time
on the streets instead of flying over them.
Copy !req
46. He's even friendlier than they say.
Copy !req
47. Bollocks! In what bloody plane of
existence does four of a kind lose?
Copy !req
48. Too, too bad, Constantine.
Copy !req
49. Have you gained weight?
It looks good on you.
Copy !req
50. What say you let your soul mate
play a few hands, Jason?
Copy !req
51. Maybe he'd change my luck.
He'd definitely be less mopey than you.
Copy !req
52. John Constantine, the man
who perfected the bad idea.
Copy !req
53. The only reason I came
to this dung heap of a casino
Copy !req
54. is to find a relic to keep
that monster locked away forever.
Copy !req
55. Boys, boys! You're boring me.
Let's play, shall we?
Copy !req
56. My luck's running
as hot as me naughty bits.
Copy !req
57. But our next group of friends is due
to arrive, so it's time to bust you out.
Copy !req
58. Copperfield's coming. Presto changeo!
Copy !req
59. Woman in a box. In a box.
Copy !req
60. Yeah, he's classy, unlike you.
Copy !req
61. Are they implying David Copperfield,
television magician, has true power?
Copy !req
62. Owns a chain of islands and dated
Claudia Schiffer. What do you think?
Copy !req
63. No cards for me, and...
Copy !req
64. Looks like you can't call
my bet, Constantine.
Copy !req
65. By my rules, you lose.
Copy !req
66. - I raise.
- With what?
Copy !req
67. - Your ratty soul ain't worth two bits.
- Not two bits.
Copy !req
68. I'm betting the House,
the House of Mystery.
Copy !req
69. And since I'm including everything inside,
it looks like you're the one
Copy !req
70. that can't call, Abnegazar.
Copy !req
71. Well, what do you say, boys?
Copy !req
72. I like the action.
Copy !req
73. I call.
Copy !req
74. Really? A chipped Dreamstone?
Copy !req
75. I'm out.
Copy !req
76. Broken knick-knacks for the House of
Mystery and its contents? Are you mad?
Copy !req
77. I've got a working soul catcher.
Copy !req
78. That's Ogid's Eye Spiker?
Copy !req
79. And the Garazi.
Copy !req
80. So even if that very magical Dreamstone
doesn't work, it's still a big-ass ruby.
Copy !req
81. I'd be a poor sport indeed
if I didn't accept your fair wager.
Copy !req
82. Hell. Now, that's
a losing hand for the ages.
Copy !req
83. Now, read them and...
Copy !req
84. - What?
- Do they have an eye doctor in hell?
Copy !req
85. - I'd make an appointment if I was you.
- You cheated!
Copy !req
86. Technically, we both cheated.
I just did it better.
Copy !req
87. - I'll rip your bloody heart out!
- Sorry, mate, I'm using that.
Copy !req
88. Situation here, Jason.
It's time to call your better half.
Copy !req
89. Sorry, John, you're on your own.
Copy !req
90. Oi, I'm gonna roast your nuts
and feed them to you, Constantine.
Copy !req
91. Gone, gone, the form of man.
Copy !req
92. Arise the demon, Etrigan!
Copy !req
93. Once more with words of metered rhyme
Copy !req
94. comes Etrigan the Slayer just in time.
Copy !req
95. Easy now, brother.
We're on the same side, right?
Copy !req
96. Let's use our words.
Copy !req
97. Are you having a laugh?
We're the Demons Three.
Copy !req
98. Kill everyone!
Copy !req
99. You will pay, Constantine.
Copy !req
100. Your soul will be ours.
Copy !req
101. Get in line, you prats.
Copy !req
102. Your ass is grass, Constantine.
Copy !req
103. And we're the lawnmower.
Copy !req
104. Since the battle's fought and won,
Copy !req
105. Jason Blood with me is done.
Copy !req
106. For 500 years, I've been bound to Etrigan,
Copy !req
107. fighting to keep him from coming forth,
and you forced me to summon him.
Copy !req
108. Everything got sorted.
Copy !req
109. He could have gone on a killing spree.
You don't think.
Copy !req
110. - You don't consider the cost.
- Yeah, I did.
Copy !req
111. Weighed it against my being eaten alive
and thought, "Yeah, totally worth it."
Copy !req
112. You're a world class bastard, John.
Copy !req
113. And for my finale, I will make this
terrible trio of terrifying Tantors
Copy !req
114. vanish before your eyes.
Copy !req
115. I hope those elephants survived.
Copy !req
116. You don't want PETA on your back.
Copy !req
117. You're assuming they were real
in the first place.
Copy !req
118. - How are you, Bruce?
- I'm fine, Zatanna. Busy.
Copy !req
119. You know where I can find
John Constantine?
Copy !req
120. - No.
- You must have some idea.
Copy !req
121. We don't keep in touch.
Copy !req
122. I know you two have history, so I...
Copy !req
123. Z, Batman needs to talk with John.
Copy !req
124. You've got to come along, too.
It's important.
Copy !req
125. - Is that you, Boston?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
126. Everything is...
Boy, this guy's mind is tough.
Copy !req
127. Can't hold...
Copy !req
128. What is going on?
Copy !req
129. I'll tell you on the way to John's.
Copy !req
130. Okay, but I call shotgun.
Copy !req
131. I don't even think
his kid could fit back here.
Copy !req
132. Sorry, Boston, but life is for the living.
Copy !req
133. Boston Brand. He was a circus performer.
Copy !req
134. Batman's heard of me. Sweet.
Tell him I'm a fan of his, too,
Copy !req
135. but, you know, be cool about it.
Copy !req
136. - Yeah, that's him.
- Ask him if he caught one of my shows.
Copy !req
137. He was a trapeze artist who loved being
famous, especially with the ladies.
Copy !req
138. - Husbands, not so much.
- You're killing me.
Copy !req
139. He had a knack for irritating
the wrong people.
Copy !req
140. Then, about five years ago,
karma caught up with him.
Copy !req
141. It was a weekend show, full house.
Copy !req
142. Boston was in the middle
of his death-defying act when...
Copy !req
143. he died, and that should have been that,
Copy !req
144. but with Boston,
things tend to get complicated.
Copy !req
145. His spirit was called
by the goddess Rama Kushna.
Copy !req
146. She took pity on him and gave him
the power to possess the living,
Copy !req
147. so he could bring his killer
and others to justice.
Copy !req
148. Hey, I don't wanna brag, but I'm good.
Copy !req
149. Why did he feel the need
to write on my walls like a child?
Copy !req
150. Yeah, he's sorry about that.
Copy !req
151. Where is this address? GPS doesn't
seem especially useful tonight.
Copy !req
152. It's not an address. The House
of Mystery tends to move around.
Copy !req
153. I didn't put the symbols in there
for the GPS to find it.
Copy !req
154. I wanted the House to come to us.
Copy !req
155. She can't hold it. Do something.
Copy !req
156. There.
Copy !req
157. Into the House!
Copy !req
158. - Z, you all right?
- Yeah, as soon as you get off me.
Copy !req
159. I should have known you were the reason
I'm not back in London enjoying a pint.
Copy !req
160. The House always did like you better.
Copy !req
161. Odd trio for a road trip.
To what do I owe the visit?
Copy !req
162. The League thinks that a recent spike
in homicides may have a magical cause.
Copy !req
163. Told you something stinks. Now we know
someone doesn't want us asking questions.
Copy !req
164. Looks like you've cracked it
wide open, mate.
Copy !req
165. What did he say?
Copy !req
166. I'm not playing telephone between you two.
Copy !req
167. We online?
Copy !req
168. Great. Sorry about the Batmobile.
I hope your insurance was paid up.
Copy !req
169. What, is there even a policy
for something like that?
Copy !req
170. Hey, I told you not to do that, Orchid.
Use a bloody door.
Copy !req
171. I am glad to see you are well.
Copy !req
172. - How new is this one?
- Not what you think.
Copy !req
173. It's the magic of the House.
Copy !req
174. Decided it wanted to experience
humanity and gave itself a body.
Copy !req
175. It sure did.
Copy !req
176. A spirit whose existence
is not its own, like myself.
Copy !req
177. Interesting.
Copy !req
178. Yeah, we are that.
Copy !req
179. Dead smooth you are, mate.
Copy !req
180. Hey, it's been a while, you know?
Copy !req
181. Powerful in true magic. Angry at John.
Copy !req
182. This, I understand.
Copy !req
183. Yet you still have feelings for him.
Copy !req
184. I could kill him.
Copy !req
185. You exude pain.
Copy !req
186. Your life is a patchwork of blackness
with no time for joy.
Copy !req
187. How do you cope with it?
Copy !req
188. I have a butler.
Copy !req
189. That was enlightening.
Copy !req
190. Well, I guess we should have
that chinwag about now.
Copy !req
191. - Demons!
- It's not me!
Copy !req
192. I've given birth to the devil. It's the...
Copy !req
193. Rama Kushna says this will break down
the walls between the planes.
Copy !req
194. Even the afterlife will be affected.
Copy !req
195. Yeah, it's dodgy, all right.
I'll look into it.
Copy !req
196. Meanwhile, the House
will drop you wherever you'd like.
Copy !req
197. Rama says we have to work together.
Come on! It's a dream team.
Copy !req
198. You, me, Zatanna, Batman,
maybe even the Justice League.
Copy !req
199. The capes and tights crew,
useless against dark magic.
Copy !req
200. That's why we need you. You can lead us.
Copy !req
201. Boston, do I strike you as a team player?
Much less a team leader.
Copy !req
202. Point is, even deities can get it wrong.
Copy !req
203. It's how we got the appendix,
Neanderthals and reality TV.
Copy !req
204. Z, your help I could use.
Copy !req
205. Okay, if we do it as a group.
Copy !req
206. This is the monkey cage
in Sumatra all over again.
Copy !req
207. "We need to save the monkeys," she said.
Copy !req
208. - You're such an ass.
- Not the monkeys.
Copy !req
209. Says the man who has Newcastle
and 100 other screw-ups on his resume,
Copy !req
210. - costing lives and souls.
- But not monkeys.
Copy !req
211. - You're still way ahead on dead monkeys.
- They used to be a thing.
Copy !req
212. - You just have to make things...
- We're wasting time.
Copy !req
213. He's dead, and I accept the risks,
so can we get to it,
Copy !req
214. or do you two need a timeout?
Copy !req
215. Fine and dandy. Let's take a walk
on the dark side then.
Copy !req
216. Coming, team?
Copy !req
217. Stop being a child and slow down.
Where are we going?
Copy !req
218. - Ritchie's.
- Have you talked to him lately?
Copy !req
219. I know he's pissed.
You don't have to remind me, love.
Copy !req
220. - It's on my CV, remember?
- No, really, has he told you...
Copy !req
221. No. He's dying.
Copy !req
222. John Constantine,
Copy !req
223. purveyor of the dark arts
and lifeline of last resort.
Copy !req
224. No matter. Your friend's soul
will be collected,
Copy !req
225. and there's nothing
you can do to alter that.
Copy !req
226. Why don't you go do something
useful, like haunt a house?
Copy !req
227. - Who's he talking to now?
- Shrouds. They deliver souls to hell.
Copy !req
228. They're drawn to you.
Copy !req
229. Maybe it's your cologne, Batsy.
Copy !req
230. This one has cheated us many times.
Copy !req
231. It is vexing.
Copy !req
232. This has been lovely,
but it's time for you lot to bugger off.
Copy !req
233. When the time comes, I'll be the one
to collect your soul, Constantine.
Copy !req
234. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
235. I thought I felt
a disturbance in the force.
Copy !req
236. How you doing, Johnny boy?
Copy !req
237. Zatanna and Batman?
Copy !req
238. What the hell?
Copy !req
239. Tell you everything inside, mate.
Copy !req
240. You poor thing.
Copy !req
241. Yeah, I may have lied
the last time we talked,
Copy !req
242. about exactly how fast
I'm sledding downhill.
Copy !req
243. I'm sorry about that.
Copy !req
244. But it means a lot you're here, John.
Copy !req
245. And, hey, you don't have
to say it. You're forgiven.
Copy !req
246. Still wondering what Batman's
doing in my living room.
Copy !req
247. And when is he gonna shut up, right?
Copy !req
248. What? What's with the face?
Copy !req
249. You're not here to say
you're sorry, are you?
Copy !req
250. Of course I am, but I was looking
to borrow the Keshanti Key as well.
Copy !req
251. Unbelievable.
Copy !req
252. - I tried to tell him on the way.
- Yeah, it's not your fault, Z.
Copy !req
253. Just like everything,
this is rock star Johnny's fault.
Copy !req
254. I was with you when it happened,
Ritchie. We were side by side.
Copy !req
255. Yeah, yeah, yeah, side by side.
Copy !req
256. But I got the weird
magical cancer while you,
Copy !req
257. you added to your rep. Isn't that right?
Copy !req
258. Look, me not making proper amends
isn't related to the Key,
Copy !req
259. which, truth be told,
you're not gonna need, mate.
Copy !req
260. John!
Copy !req
261. Getting that a lot lately.
Copy !req
262. You can go screw yourself.
I am not giving you crap.
Copy !req
263. Your anger is understandable,
but you need to reconsider.
Copy !req
264. Innocent lives are at stake.
Copy !req
265. Well, doctors say
an upbeat attitude can help,
Copy !req
266. so what I'll focus on today
is that I met Batman.
Copy !req
267. Force of good.
It was also nice seeing you, Zatanna.
Copy !req
268. Now, if you'll excuse me...
Copy !req
269. You can show yourselves out.
Copy !req
270. This him?
Copy !req
271. Father of the year.
I'll need the gear now.
Copy !req
272. - How does this work?
- It's basically a magical shortcut.
Copy !req
273. It lets me access
different planes of existence
Copy !req
274. without doing 20-odd hours
of incantations.
Copy !req
275. In this case,
Copy !req
276. I'll poke around this poor sod's memories
to see how his madness began.
Copy !req
277. And, more importantly, what caused it.
Copy !req
278. What are you doing here?
I'm calling security.
Copy !req
279. I'll make sure the looky-loos
stay out of our hair.
Copy !req
280. Z, give me a psychic shout
if this body comes under attack.
Copy !req
281. Wouldn't do to be trapped inside, now.
Copy !req
282. Wouldn't do to go in alone,
and since I'm right here...
Copy !req
283. Too dangerous.
You're out of practice, love.
Copy !req
284. Look, you wanted me along. I'm here.
Copy !req
285. I'm not waiting in the wings.
Let's do this.
Copy !req
286. Z? You okay?
Copy !req
287. I'm fine.
Copy !req
288. I've never liked this sort of magic.
Copy !req
289. I can feel darkness seeping inside me.
Copy !req
290. How you stand it is beyond me.
Copy !req
291. It's all about control.
If you ever need a refresher...
Copy !req
292. We've had this conversation.
I haven't changed my mind.
Copy !req
293. Sure, sit out the war
between good and evil.
Copy !req
294. After all, you've got a good thing going
being applauded by mindless twits.
Copy !req
295. Really? Now?
Copy !req
296. Good a time as ever, I reckon.
Copy !req
297. - I'll teach you to talk back.
- No!
Copy !req
298. The magic I perform
brings people happiness.
Copy !req
299. You sure it's not
the two drink minimum, love?
Copy !req
300. You're such a pessimist.
Copy !req
301. Wrong. I expect the worst,
Copy !req
302. so I prepare for the worst,
and when the worst happens, I'm ready.
Copy !req
303. But my outlook doesn't alter
the reality of the world.
Copy !req
304. - Steven, stop!
- Leave me alone!
Copy !req
305. Another precious moment.
Copy !req
306. There was joy, too.
Copy !req
307. His madness swept it away.
Copy !req
308. Who dropped the bed pan?
Copy !req
309. This is it.
This was the morning of his madness.
Copy !req
310. - What do you think will set him off?
- My guess is the Sudoku.
Copy !req
311. He's got two 9s in the same row.
Copy !req
312. John.
Copy !req
313. Run! Run! Run!
Copy !req
314. Run! Let's get out of here!
Copy !req
315. Come on, fellow. Eat a piece of fruit?
Copy !req
316. Here it is.
Copy !req
317. We've got to get out of here.
Copy !req
318. One more second.
Copy !req
319. Now, John. There's no time.
Copy !req
320. Got it.
Copy !req
321. - Shit's really hit the fan.
- You had to go there, Boston.
Copy !req
322. Let's get the hell out of here.
Copy !req
323. - I don't recognize it.
- Me, neither.
Copy !req
324. But if there's a person alive
who can, it's Ritchie.
Copy !req
325. Are you forgetting when you made
your friend despise you?
Copy !req
326. This is too bloody important
for hurt feelings.
Copy !req
327. - Constantine.
- Bollocks.
Copy !req
328. You've arrived in time to witness my...
Copy !req
329. Ritchie!
Copy !req
330. Get back, you bastards!
Copy !req
331. John, help Ritchie.
Copy !req
332. Take that! Boom!
Copy !req
333. - No pulse.
- We know! We know! Come on!
Copy !req
334. Why?
Copy !req
335. I see you have a few tricks of your own?
Copy !req
336. Not everything requires magic.
Copy !req
337. Make sure he sees that
right when he wakes up.
Copy !req
338. If he wakes.
Copy !req
339. We need to talk, you and I,
but if you try and summon Etrigan,
Copy !req
340. I'll fill your lungs with bile
before the first verse is done.
Copy !req
341. Savvy?
Copy !req
342. The situation was not how it seemed.
Copy !req
343. The apartment was like that
when I arrived. Richard as well.
Copy !req
344. - Come on! You were all over him.
- I was attempting to help.
Copy !req
345. When you burst in,
I knew I'd get blamed, so I ran.
Copy !req
346. - Do you believe him?
- Jason's not the murdery type.
Copy !req
347. He's chock full of honor, loyalty,
and rubbish of that sort.
Copy !req
348. Then tell us why you were there.
Copy !req
349. Richard is known as a collector
of the arcane and supernatural.
Copy !req
350. I wanted to see if he had something
that could gain me access to this place.
Copy !req
351. Why would you wanna break in here?
Copy !req
352. For this.
Copy !req
353. The single most powerful conduit
of evil in the history of the world.
Copy !req
354. He named it the Dreamstone.
Copy !req
355. But it's really the stuff of nightmares.
Copy !req
356. I was a young knight, green as grass.
Copy !req
357. With visions of battle-won glory
dancing in my head.
Copy !req
358. Needless to say,
these were dispelled thoroughly.
Copy !req
359. He called himself Destiny,
Copy !req
360. but Merlin told us he
was a man of science one time,
Copy !req
361. before he went insane.
Copy !req
362. Destiny forged the Dreamstone
with black magic and his soul.
Copy !req
363. He used it to subject people
to their most terrifying nightmares
Copy !req
364. and then feed off their torment.
Copy !req
365. It was actually the demon Etrigan
who won the day.
Copy !req
366. To battle, Etrigan. Should you succeed,
I will release you of your bond to me.
Copy !req
367. If freedom is what's up for trade,
Copy !req
368. then Destiny's as good as slayed.
Copy !req
369. You haven't won, Merlin. This isn't over.
Copy !req
370. I swear it.
Copy !req
371. Release me, Merlin, from your care.
Copy !req
372. My duty's done. 'Tis only fair.
Copy !req
373. I'm afraid that's not possible,
friend Demon.
Copy !req
374. I apologize to both you and Jason Blood,
Copy !req
375. but your future portends a shared destiny.
Copy !req
376. Caught now, imprisoned in the form of man.
Copy !req
377. I fix the demon, Etrigan.
Copy !req
378. It was also the beginning
of my eternal life sentence with Etrigan.
Copy !req
379. I didn't think you'd give it up willingly,
Copy !req
380. and though this piece is useless without
the other half, it's far from powerless.
Copy !req
381. Safe enough where it is.
Copy !req
382. Displayed like a tourist trinket
in a Karachi bazaar?
Copy !req
383. Neat, isn't it?
Copy !req
384. The House keeps my valuables out of phase,
so they don't go wondering off.
Copy !req
385. But, still, the timing
of the Stone's appearance and its power
Copy !req
386. indicates that it's somehow
involved with these crimes.
Copy !req
387. Which is why it stays here,
where only I can get to it.
Copy !req
388. I think me, them,
and everyone else who knows you
Copy !req
389. might want it to be somewhere else.
Copy !req
390. Your friend is awake.
Copy !req
391. Ritchie, who was it? Who did this to you?
Copy !req
392. Faust.
Copy !req
393. Felix Faust. You sure?
Copy !req
394. There you are, you old bastard.
Copy !req
395. I give you wizard and asshole
extraordinaire, Felix Faust.
Copy !req
396. Hell, I should have put it together.
Conjuring a whirlwind is just his style.
Copy !req
397. The League had a run-in with Faust,
but his location isn't in our database.
Copy !req
398. Yeah, wizards don't make a habit of
signing up for credit cards or social media.
Copy !req
399. His grandly named Observatory
of the Cosmos
Copy !req
400. is hidden from the likes of you
and Superman, but not from me.
Copy !req
401. Felix Faust.
Copy !req
402. - What's happening?
- If this were a computer,
Copy !req
403. I'd say it's frozen.
Copy !req
404. Cheers.
Copy !req
405. Felix Faust would take precautions
against locator spells.
Copy !req
406. There's another way,
Copy !req
407. but it involves asking a favor of someone
that I don't have the best relationship with.
Copy !req
408. Someone else dislikes you? Shocking.
Copy !req
409. Your friend slips from the mortal plane.
Copy !req
410. - John...
- Keep him alive and safe. Understand?
Copy !req
411. That is not my purpose.
Copy !req
412. I don't give a flying shag
what you think your bloody purpose is.
Copy !req
413. I order you to help him
any and every way you're able.
Copy !req
414. Let's go.
Copy !req
415. All right, I'll ask.
Copy !req
416. Why are we in the middle
of a godforsaken swamp?
Copy !req
417. It's a favorite hidey hole
of one Alec Holland,
Copy !req
418. whose corpse was taken to be
the most recent Avatar of the Green.
Copy !req
419. Bet you won't find that
on your bloody cell phone.
Copy !req
420. Our data's more factual.
Alec Holland was murdered by terrorists.
Copy !req
421. His body was never recovered.
End of story.
Copy !req
422. Not quite.
Copy !req
423. Go away!
Copy !req
424. Swamp Thing!
Copy !req
425. I know you're seeing this.
Get out here, or the posies get it!
Copy !req
426. John Constantine.
Copy !req
427. You dare threaten the green.
Copy !req
428. Dude, your social skills are horrendous.
Copy !req
429. Please, we aren't here to harm
any plants, but our need is urgent.
Copy !req
430. Don't let your feelings for John
stop you from doing what's right.
Copy !req
431. You have a garden.
Copy !req
432. Yes, I find it relaxing,
Copy !req
433. and I water it every week.
Copy !req
434. We need to find a man,
a wizard named Felix Faust.
Copy !req
435. A single human among your teeming masses.
Copy !req
436. I only know John Constantine
because he enrages me.
Copy !req
437. Faust lives in an observatory
which is invisible.
Copy !req
438. It's a place where dark magic
would infect the earth below it.
Copy !req
439. I will take you there
so you are no longer here.
Copy !req
440. The place you seek is there.
Copy !req
441. That place is heavily warded.
Copy !req
442. I know we've had our differences,
but we could really use your help.
Copy !req
443. If we don't get a handle on this rotter,
he'll threaten all of humanity.
Copy !req
444. What of it?
Copy !req
445. You were once human, just like me.
Copy !req
446. No longer.
Copy !req
447. Perhaps his actions are a kind of justice,
Copy !req
448. for who destroys more
of the green than your kind?
Copy !req
449. And Swamp Thing has left the building.
Copy !req
450. - Guess we do it the hard way.
- Or not.
Copy !req
451. Gone, gone, the form of man.
Copy !req
452. Arise the demon Etrigan!
Copy !req
453. What...
Copy !req
454. - Who dares?
- I, Etrigan, bring down this house
Copy !req
455. and build a tomb for Felix Faust!
Copy !req
456. As if I would stoop
to brawling with a demon.
Copy !req
457. Fight others of your filthy kind.
Copy !req
458. From hell though we may be,
it does not make us family!
Copy !req
459. Do you like what I've done with the place?
Copy !req
460. No woman can speak
in my sanctum sanctorum.
Copy !req
461. I conjured it just for you
and, of course, men everywhere.
Copy !req
462. As a fellow showman, this is no way
to treat your guests. Now, settle down!
Copy !req
463. Stop hitting yourself. Stop hitting
yourself. Stop hitting yourself.
Copy !req
464. Not everything can be solved
with your peashooter.
Copy !req
465. Just because you're dead doesn't
mean you're beyond my retribution.
Copy !req
466. Is that it?
Copy !req
467. Well, it's off to the old magicians home
for you, mate. Pudding night is Thursday.
Copy !req
468. Try that fireball once more, Constantine.
I'd love to see you cook your own goose.
Copy !req
469. Let me...
Copy !req
470. I take it back. That thing is useful.
Copy !req
471. Zatanna, where are you, darling?
Copy !req
472. I know you can't speak,
but give me a wave.
Copy !req
473. You're the only one here
that's really a threat.
Copy !req
474. There you are. This will sting a bit.
Copy !req
475. Stored magic? Really?
It's the TV dinner of spell casting, dear.
Copy !req
476. Here's what real magic looks like.
Copy !req
477. Z!
Copy !req
478. Z, are you daft? Stop!
Copy !req
479. I will kill you, woman!
Copy !req
480. Z, don't!
Copy !req
481. Don't kill him. You can't.
Copy !req
482. Out of my way, John.
Copy !req
483. If no blood is spilled,
your soul is in the clear.
Copy !req
484. Get control, Z, just like I taught you.
Copy !req
485. Easy-peasy, lemon squeezy. Deep breaths.
Copy !req
486. Let it go, love.
Copy !req
487. Do you see why I can't do what you do?
Copy !req
488. You lost control is all.
Happens to the best of us.
Copy !req
489. You've seen me in action, right?
Copy !req
490. Yeah, once or twice.
Copy !req
491. Why are you here? I haven't done anything
to warrant this kind of response.
Copy !req
492. This yours?
Copy !req
493. I don't know. Maybe.
Copy !req
494. I have several hundred rings
of varying design and properties.
Copy !req
495. It isn't him.
Copy !req
496. Felix Faust isn't the one
behind the nightmare crimes.
Copy !req
497. He summoned our old poker buddies
in their more massive forms.
Copy !req
498. The hell does it all mean?
Copy !req
499. It means Felix Faust had access
to the artifact whenever he wanted.
Copy !req
500. What artifact?
Copy !req
501. Well, we're back to square one, then.
Copy !req
502. Unfortunately, no. We were sent here
by your friend, remember?
Copy !req
503. - But Ritchie's dying.
- Is he?
Copy !req
504. Boy, boy. I think I got closer
to death than I planned.
Copy !req
505. Bad girl.
Copy !req
506. See, now, you were told to do everything
to help me by the master of the House,
Copy !req
507. and that does not include punching.
Copy !req
508. Bring me to the main room.
Copy !req
509. I'll take it from here, beautiful.
Copy !req
510. But I need you out of my hair for now,
Copy !req
511. so why don't you just go
for a little walk?
Copy !req
512. Yeah! That's the stuff.
Copy !req
513. Why aren't we inside?
Copy !req
514. Because Ritchie's bloody well
taken control of the House.
Copy !req
515. This is what you get for having mates.
Boston, can you get inside?
Copy !req
516. That would be a no.
Copy !req
517. Ritchie, you're gonna listen to me
whether you like it or not.
Copy !req
518. Open the door.
Copy !req
519. Do you hear? Open it!
Copy !req
520. Too late, Johnny Boy.
Copy !req
521. Ritchie, please!
Copy !req
522. Stop while there's still time
to save your soul.
Copy !req
523. Says the man who skates
away from everything.
Copy !req
524. Since you got me infected,
Copy !req
525. I've looked all around the world
for a cure and I've finally found it.
Copy !req
526. A small piece of the Dreamstone.
It's sentient.
Copy !req
527. It told me how to get the Demons Three
to bring the rest of it to Earth.
Copy !req
528. It would've been so easy
to take it from them.
Copy !req
529. Of course, rock star Johnny
screwed everything sideways.
Copy !req
530. So we had to frame Faust
and get you to bring me here.
Copy !req
531. Now I'm immortal and supercharged!
Copy !req
532. You've been played for a sap.
The Stone isn't sentient.
Copy !req
533. What's left of Destiny's soul was
whispering sweet nothings in your ear,
Copy !req
534. getting you to commit atrocities
to gain power and make his move.
Copy !req
535. You're just pissed 'cause I won.
Copy !req
536. I wish that were the case.
Copy !req
537. This can't be right.
Copy !req
538. No!
Copy !req
539. Wait! Wait! We... we had a deal!
Copy !req
540. We had a deal!
Copy !req
541. Five hundred years, I've waited.
Copy !req
542. Five hundred years, I've planned.
Copy !req
543. Really? I guess 500 must be the new 300.
Copy !req
544. What say we share
your beauty secrets over a pint?
Copy !req
545. A god does not prattle with mortals.
Copy !req
546. - She gonna be okay?
- I... I don't know.
Copy !req
547. The amount of magic she's used,
Copy !req
548. sometimes you don't recover.
Copy !req
549. I should have never led her back.
Copy !req
550. Selfish bastard, I am.
Copy !req
551. You've done what you can for now,
but we have to stop Destiny,
Copy !req
552. or everyone's at risk.
Copy !req
553. He's right. He'll have this city by midnight,
the Eastern Seaboard by dawn.
Copy !req
554. Then, what's to stop him? He'll be a god.
Copy !req
555. We don't need another one
of those mucking about.
Copy !req
556. All right.
Copy !req
557. Get 'em!
Copy !req
558. They're everywhere! Everywhere!
Copy !req
559. Yes.
Copy !req
560. Yes.
Copy !req
561. My will be done.
Copy !req
562. Fool! How can you hope to defeat a god?
Copy !req
563. Not only can I sense you,
you cannot defeat my shield.
Copy !req
564. Since when does God need a force shield?
Copy !req
565. The Justice League are on their way.
Copy !req
566. Suppose that couldn't be helped,
Copy !req
567. but make sure they stay well away
from Destiny, to not be struck mad,
Copy !req
568. unless you want a bunch of crazed
super blokes ripping apart the city.
Copy !req
569. A little late for that, my friend.
Copy !req
570. John, listen to me.
You've been affected by magic.
Copy !req
571. Get away to space now.
Copy !req
572. Sorry to have to ask this, Jason.
Copy !req
573. At least you're asking.
Copy !req
574. Gone, gone, the form of man.
Copy !req
575. Rise the demon Etrigan!
Copy !req
576. So Constantine calls once more.
Copy !req
577. Just like a greedy, wanton...
Copy !req
578. Save the bloody rhymes, and top that git!
Copy !req
579. Killjoy.
Copy !req
580. I've had many years
to think about you, Etrigan.
Copy !req
581. Call this poetic justice.
Copy !req
582. Holy crap.
Copy !req
583. Looks like you've finally
beat the curse, my boy.
Copy !req
584. Wish it were under happier circumstances.
Copy !req
585. - What are you doing?
- Calling for help.
Copy !req
586. I just hope he doesn't realize
it's me doing the calling.
Copy !req
587. Who dares strike at me?
Copy !req
588. The Defender of the Green...
Copy !req
589. Swamp Thing.
Copy !req
590. Perfect.
Copy !req
591. Glad to see you
back on your feet, Zatanna.
Copy !req
592. Whatever you're gonna do, do it fast.
Copy !req
593. The so-called Guardian of the Green
who secretly hopes to be human again.
Copy !req
594. Let me dispel you of that notion.
Copy !req
595. Back to the dirt...
Copy !req
596. where you belong.
Copy !req
597. He's getting more powerful by the second.
What the hell are we gonna do?
Copy !req
598. I say we go and talk
to a man about a horse.
Copy !req
599. Did you hit your head or something?
You're babbling.
Copy !req
600. A Trojan horse, Boston. Come on!
Copy !req
601. Over here, you wanker!
Copy !req
602. You are puny and disrespectful.
Copy !req
603. Let me see your madness.
Copy !req
604. Well, that's the trouble with someone
like me. Been there, done that.
Copy !req
605. I shall make you beg for death.
Copy !req
606. Can I beg you to stop talking?
Copy !req
607. I mean, all wizards are touched,
but you, you're a full-blown nutter.
Copy !req
608. I will tear your soul apart.
Copy !req
609. And what happened
to not prattling with mortals?
Copy !req
610. You chatter like my grandma
at a book club.
Copy !req
611. Now, Boston!
Copy !req
612. Trick or treat, freak!
Copy !req
613. Is that a sword in your chest,
or are you just glad to see me?
Copy !req
614. Merlin sends his regards.
Copy !req
615. And by the way, you lose.
Copy !req
616. I don't think so.
Copy !req
617. Johnny, I was... I was under a compulsion.
Copy !req
618. You've got to save me.
You owe me. You owe me!
Copy !req
619. Sorry, mate. Can't take the chance
that Destiny is still pulling your strings.
Copy !req
620. John, please! Help me!
Copy !req
621. Help me, you bastard!
Copy !req
622. Help me!
Copy !req
623. That was unpleasant.
Copy !req
624. What the hell did I miss?
Copy !req
625. Z, you're okay. I thought...
Copy !req
626. My head feels like
the morning after Brixton.
Copy !req
627. Surely not that bad.
Copy !req
628. So Merlin's spell hath ended.
Copy !req
629. It would seem so.
Copy !req
630. Though it's a "good news,
bad news" sort of thing.
Copy !req
631. - What's going on?
- Yeah. He wasn't wounded.
Copy !req
632. Unless I miss my guess, that happened
on the day he was bound to Etrigan.
Copy !req
633. And now that I'm not...
Copy !req
634. I'm truly sorry, Jason.
Copy !req
635. Don't be. It's a welcome end.
Copy !req
636. For 500 years, he and I have been bound.
Copy !req
637. A demon from hell, a knight of renown.
Copy !req
638. Though we were cursed
to be slaves to each other,
Copy !req
639. I know of no man
I'd want more for a brother.
Copy !req
640. Farewell, mortal.
Copy !req
641. You couldn't have picked a better place.
Copy !req
642. The village where he was born
was over there.
Copy !req
643. Too bad it took this to get him home.
Copy !req
644. Batman asked me to be
in the Justice League.
Copy !req
645. And you're considering it?
Copy !req
646. I visited their headquarters
a few days ago.
Copy !req
647. It's interesting, and like you said,
Copy !req
648. maybe it's time to make a difference.
Copy !req
649. Listening to me now?
Copy !req
650. They want you, too.
Copy !req
651. Good one, Z. Too right, they do.
Copy !req
652. You have got to be bloody kidding.
Copy !req
653. No way. Batty would go mental.
Copy !req
654. He was the one who asked,
Copy !req
655. and I told him that's what you'd say.
Copy !req
656. Be safe, John.
Copy !req
657. Now, hold on. Hold on.
Copy !req
658. Maybe I've been a bit rash.
Copy !req
659. Could you tell me more over a drink?
Copy !req
660. We could rechristen the House, as it were.
Copy !req
661. - A drink?
- Yeah, a drink.
Copy !req
662. Don't think this is gonna turn into
some sort of Manchester weekend.
Copy !req
663. Get that out of your head.
Copy !req
664. We could have a Trewhiddle Tuesday.
Copy !req
665. - No, definitely not.
- Well, let's mark that as a maybe.
Copy !req
666. Now, that's what I call
making yourself useful, love.
Copy !req
