00:27It has many names.
00:31Avernus, Tartarus, Hades, the Infernal Region you call Hell.
00:39So Hell does exist?
00:42It does, for some.
00:45Does that mean it doesn't exist if you don't believe in it?
00:50Did you believe in it?
00:53When you were a man?
00:55Yeah, I just didn't expect Hell to be cold.
01:03So, which way do we go?
01:06I suggest we follow the damned.
01:14They make you bring your own fire to Hell?
01:16No, no, no, no.
01:52Hello.
01:55Are you all right?
01:56I think so.
01:58Here, let me help you.
02:03I'm so sorry.
02:04It's my fault entirely.
02:07I've lost my slippers somewhere.
02:10Oh, here you go.
02:11Oh, you're very kind.
02:14I suppose I'm rather underdressed.
02:17Listen, if it were up to me, I'd never get out of my pajamas.
02:22You live nearby, or...?
02:25No, I, uh...
02:29I have no idea where I am, actually.
02:34Can I...?
02:35Do you need a ride somewhere?
02:37I'd be happy to take you.
02:39I'd hate to impose.
02:40Oh, you're not imposing at all, honestly.
02:42Where are we headed?
02:44Do you know where Mayhew is?
02:46It's on my way.
02:47I live in Cumberland.
02:49I'm Rosemary.
02:52Hello, Rosemary.
02:52I'm John.
02:53Good to meet you, John.
02:56Come on, I'll introduce you to Susie.
02:58Who's Susie?
02:59My Rottweiler.
03:14We're not sneaking in with them?
03:17A king may not enter another monarch's realm uninvited.
03:21There are rules.
03:24Protocols which must be followed.
03:34Follow up.
03:34Let's go.
04:04Let's go.
04:43Let's go.
05:05The ruler of hell will not be kind to one who insults an honored guest.
05:09And I am a guest in this realm, as I am monarch of my own.
05:16So where's your ruby?
05:19Shall I use it to haunt your dreams?
05:23And your waking hours, too?
05:26Or will you open the gates of hell and let us through?
05:43Now, take us to the palace.
05:47This one at the door.
05:49This one at the door.
05:53So, you live in Mayhew.
05:56Not anymore.
05:58My, uh, things are there.
06:00So you used to live in Mayhew.
06:02Uh, yes.
06:05A few years ago.
06:08My mother's work forces to move around quite a bit.
06:12What did she do?
06:16Actually, she passed away quite recently.
06:19Oh, John.
06:20It's only just happened, so I'm still a little bit...
06:23Of course.
06:26I'm so sorry, John.
06:28She wasn't a very good person, I'm afraid.
06:31That's an awful thing to say, isn't it?
06:33Even if it's true.
06:36No.
06:38I have a mother like that, too.
06:41Really?
06:43What does she do?
06:44She watches cable news.
06:46All day.
06:48That's what she does.
06:50What about yours?
06:52When she was alive?
06:56When she was alive,
06:59my mother was a very successful thief.
07:04Really?
07:04Yes, I'm afraid so.
07:06What did she steal?
07:08Is that rude to ask?
07:10I'm sorry.
07:10No, not at all.
07:11Uh, she stole anything and everything.
07:14She stole art, she stole jewelry,
07:17other people's identities.
07:19It's why we have to keep moving all the time.
07:21It's why she lied about everything.
07:23Even to me.
07:27Well, maybe she was trying to protect you.
07:33Spoken like a woman with children of her own.
07:37Two girls.
07:39Samantha, Sarah.
07:47Rosemary, may I ask you something?
07:49Of course.
07:51Do you lie
07:53to Samantha and Sarah?
07:59Their dad was a liar in the family.
08:03We were married ten years
08:05before I found out he had another wife
08:07and another kid
08:09in another town.
08:10Oh, my goodness.
08:11Yeah.
08:14I think lying is maybe the worst thing
08:17you can do to another person.
08:21I'm living proof of that.
08:26I'm sure your mom loved you
08:27and was proud of you.
08:30She did forgive me in the end.
08:32For what?
08:33Stealing from her.
08:34What did you steal?
08:36A ruby.
08:37But like no other,
08:39like nothing you've ever seen,
08:40she had me arrested, of course,
08:41and thrown in prison.
08:42For stealing the ruby?
08:43And arson.
08:46And murder.
08:49General mayhem,
08:50among other things.
08:51You see, the problem
08:52with having this ruby
08:53was that everyone was always
08:54trying to take it from me
08:55and so I just did what I had to do.
09:00You murdered people?
09:02They weren't good people.
09:06Not like you
09:08and Susie.
09:10Isn't that right, Susie?
09:13Isn't that right, my sweet God?
09:17Hmm.
09:30Any idea where we are?
09:33The landscape is subject
09:35to the whims of the Morning Star.
09:37The Morning Star?
09:38We have to spend the night
09:40in this literally godforsaken...
09:41Lucifer, Morning Star.
09:44As in the devil?
09:46The ruler of hell
09:47is no mere devil.
09:49So you two know each other?
09:51We've known each other
09:51for a very long time.
09:53When we first met Lucifer
09:55was the angel Samael.
09:56I forgot the devil
09:58used to be an angel.
09:59Not just any angel.
10:01The most beautiful,
10:03wisest,
10:04and most powerful
10:05of all angels.
10:08Saving only the creator,
10:10Lucifer is perhaps
10:11the most powerful being
10:12there is.
10:13More powerful than you?
10:16By far.
10:19Especially now.
10:20Why now?
10:21Last time I was here,
10:22I was an honored guest.
10:24An envoy from my own kingdom.
10:25This time I've invited myself.
10:29And I lack my symbols of office.
10:32But you're still
10:32dreaming of the endless,
10:34right?
10:34You got your sand.
10:39What's wrong?
10:41Squatterbroke
10:42has gone.
10:43All right,
10:44don't panic.
10:44I'm just gonna fly up
10:46and see where we are.
10:49No,
10:50no,
10:51not doing that.
11:06This way.
11:16Does this seem
11:17like the way
11:18to the palace to you?
11:20A demon has
11:21a hundred motives
11:22for anything he does.
11:24All of them malevolent.
11:26Demon.
11:29This is not the way.
11:40Kaiko.
12:05How I have prayed for this day.
12:09I knew you would come.
12:13It pains me
12:14to see you like this.
12:17Then free me,
12:19Lord.
12:20Only your forgiveness
12:22can free me.
12:28Do you not still love me?
12:31It has been
12:32ten thousand years,
12:35Marduk.
12:40Yes.
12:43I still love you.
12:47But I have not yet
12:48forgiven you.
12:59Come, Matthew.
13:02I will not give up hope.
13:06I will never give up.
13:26Yes, I admit that in the past
13:29I may have done some things
13:30that are morally
13:35ambiguous.
13:37But it taught me
13:38about human nature
13:39and the secret
13:40of real understanding
13:41and compassion.
13:45Do you want to know
13:46what it is?
13:48Do.
13:49Well, this is going to sound
13:51rather odd,
13:52but the secret
13:53to having compassion
13:54for people
13:55is knowing
13:57that they are
13:57fundamentally selfish.
14:00I say this
14:01without judgment.
14:02It's how human beings
14:03are built.
14:03It's how they're made.
14:05But if you know
14:06that going in,
14:07if you understand
14:08that we are operating
14:09out of a biological,
14:11congenital selfishness,
14:13then life begins
14:14to make a lot more sense.
14:19Are you all right?
14:22Sorry.
14:24Phone slipped.
14:28You were saying?
14:32I...
14:32I was saying
14:34knowing people
14:36are selfish
14:37sets you free
14:38from having to take
14:39their actions,
14:39their lies,
14:41personally.
14:43People lie
14:44because they are selfish.
14:46They lie
14:47because they are
14:48human.
14:51They lie
14:52because they're scared.
14:54People will say anything,
14:56do anything
14:57to keep from being hurt.
15:03That's what I think anyway.
15:09You're very good, Rosemary.
15:12I don't know
15:13what you mean.
15:14I mean,
15:14I experience people
15:17as basically selfish
15:19and you experience them
15:21as afraid,
15:22which they are.
15:23We all are.
15:24You're absolutely right.
15:26And good.
15:37Do you mind
15:37if we stop for gas?
15:41No, not at all.
16:01So,
16:02that woman back there,
16:04anything you want to share
16:05with your friend,
16:05Matthew?
16:11Her name is Narda.
16:15She was the ruler
16:16of a tribe
16:17that called themselves
16:18the First People.
16:22We were in love.
16:24So,
16:25what did she do?
16:27How'd she end up here?
16:29She defied me.
16:30Wait,
16:32you put her here?
16:34The Morningstar
16:35is letting me know
16:36that Hell
16:36has prepared
16:37for my visit.
16:45Why are we stopping?
16:55We're here.
17:03We'll be there.
17:07We're here.
17:08And We are here.
17:13And We are here.
17:14So,
17:23we're here.
17:28Let's go.
17:53Let's go.
18:36Let's go.
18:38Let's go.
19:09I presume the ruler of hell knows this is no social core.
19:12Have you come to join forces then?
19:14To ally your realm to ours?
19:17To acknowledge the sovereignty of hell?
19:20You know my feelings on that Lightbringer.
19:23Feelings change.
19:26Especially when one has been caught and imprisoned by mortals.
19:31We expected better of you, sweet Morpheus.
19:34I have come because my helm of state was stolen from me.
19:39I believe one of your demons has it.
19:41I should like it back.
19:45Now.
19:46Dream.
19:48If only it were that easy.
19:51But there are rules, you see.
19:54Protocols which must be followed.
20:00Which demon has your helm?
20:02Name it.
20:03And we will bring it here.
20:05I confess I do not know the name.
20:11Then we will have to summon all of them.
20:27There now, Dream.
20:28You may inquire.
20:29Which demon has your helmet?
20:34Shall we interview them one at a time?
20:37No more.
20:39That won't be necessary.
20:54It surprises us how easily you would give up, Dream.
20:58We know how you relied upon your tools.
21:03But tools are the subtlest of traps.
21:07We become reliant upon them.
21:10And in their absence,
21:12we are vulnerable.
21:15Weak.
21:17Defenseless.
21:19Not entirely.
21:24I have recovered my sand.
21:28It brought me to hell.
21:30And now it brings that which is my inhale to me.
21:53And now it wants to, you?
21:54Weak.
22:09Tell me your name, demon.
22:11Do I have to tell him?
22:12That is Coranzon.
22:14A Duke of Hell.
22:16Coranzon.
22:19The helm is mine.
22:22You must return it to me.
22:24No.
22:26It's mine now.
22:27I traded it from a mortal for a poultry thing.
22:30It was a fair trade.
22:32I've broken her laws.
22:34And if the Dream King wants his helm back,
22:38he will have to fight me for it.
22:42Very well.
22:44I challenge you, Coranzon.
22:48You know the rules, Dreamlord.
22:49If I win, you will return my helmet.
22:53And if you lose, you'll serve as my slave in Hell for eternity.
23:05I accept the terms.
23:08And whom will you choose to represent you in the battle?
23:13I shall represent myself.
23:16Coranzon.
23:18Whom will you choose to represent you?
23:25I choose you, sire.
23:30I choose you, sire.
23:47But the laws of Hell demand that I become his champion.
23:53But if you would not fight me...
23:58I have accepted the terms.
24:03Let the challenge begin.
24:20I will be five minutes.
24:21Oh, we'll be fine.
24:22You take your time.
24:23I will be fine.
24:27You take your time.
24:41Looks like I have the prepay inside.
24:43Want anything?
24:44Are you thirsty?
24:46No, thank you.
24:47I'm fine.
24:49It won't be a minute.
24:55Actually, uh, Rosemary, uh, I could use a drink if you don't mind.
25:04Sure.
25:05What would you like?
25:07I don't know.
25:08I haven't been out in the world for 30 years.
25:13You've been in prison for 30 years?
25:15No, uh, psychiatric hospital, where the beverage options were extremely limited, to say the least.
25:21After you.
25:43Whatever you want, my treat.
25:46Are you sure?
25:47Absolutely.
25:49I'll just give the guy my credit card.
26:05I need you to call 9-1-1-3.
26:09Oh, I'm sorry.
26:10What?
26:10I need you to call 9-1-1-3.
26:13The man I'm with is an escape order.
26:19Are you fucking with me?
26:20Please, just call 9-1-1.
26:23All right.
26:25I'm calling him right now.
26:28Yeah, all right.
26:29Call him.
26:30Hey, this is the filling station out on about 7.
26:44Yeah.
26:45That's right.
26:48You want to send somebody down, there's...
26:49There's me.
26:50We need to go.
27:02Let go of her.
27:04And we're going to wait here, the three of us, for the police.
27:08Oh, man, I assure you, you don't want to point that gun at me.
27:15Sir, you don't stay where you are.
27:17I will shoot you.
27:19Please don't.
27:22You'll only be hurting yourself.
27:50You shouldn't have done that.
27:53It's my fault for trusting you.
27:57Are you going to hurt me?
28:02Are you taking me to my Ruby?
28:09Then I have no reason to hurt you.
28:16Until you give me one.
28:23Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
28:27Today, for your entertainment and delectation,
28:31a formal challenge.
28:34Challenger, this dream.
28:38Once the master of the realm of sleep.
28:43As a challenge, I've selected my champion.
28:47Ruler of hell.
28:49Lucifer of Gordis.
28:54To represent me in a contest of skill,
28:59confidence, and transformation.
29:02The old is good.
29:07Matthew, I need you to return to the dreaming.
29:10What? No.
29:11It's the only reason I allowed you to come here.
29:13So I could leave you?
29:14If I should not be able to leave this place,
29:16I would not have Lucienne left alone with no word of my fate.
29:20Not again.
29:21The sand will take you back.
29:22I'm not going back.
29:24Morpheus.
29:25Am I interrupting a preliminary bout of some kind?
29:29Just, uh, ringside pep talk, your majesty.
29:32We came here for the helm,
29:34and we're not leaving here without it.
29:37We shall see.
