The Librarians (US) - Second Season

I have to get out of here!

Aah!

- Oh, come on. -

Answer!

Answer!

What do you mean she's not here?

As in, she's somewhere else.

You mean, she just up and left to go visit a friend?

Yes, something you should all take advantage of more often.

Jenkins, it's working. It's happenin'!

- What's working? What's happening? - Chupacabra.

You mean that thing we brought back from Elk Grove Village?

Yeah, Jenkins was kind enough to run a pipe

from the room of perpetual fire... He begged me to do it.

...straight into a smoker behind his lab.

Get ready for chupacabra jerky.

Ew, you're cooking it?

No, he's making it! The chupacabra! He's awesome!

Is that safe?

As long as we keep it away from the goats on level four.

- We have goats? - We have got goats?

- - Ah.

Hawthorne, New Hampshire.

A young campaign staffer goes missing.

Who wants to go fetch Colonel Baird back

from her "friend"?

I remember you took a jaunt to Oklahoma without her.

Certainly you can handle a small New England town.

I'm sorry for interrupting my opponent's press conference,

but we need to talk about the issues,

like finishing up this nasty gas line construction

and getting our city's parking situation back to normal.

Of course, but we have to ask, Mr. Denning,

about the disappearance

of your very young campaign staffer Brandy Vargas.

Well, as I said to the other reporters before, um,

it's an unfortunate situation.

And until we have more information

and real answers, I really can't comment.

I agree with my opponent.

The disappearance of a young woman

who worked directly with Mr. Denning,

in no way impacts this campaign, nor should the voters

consider anything heinous in regards to my opponent,

despite the police investigation.

It's a cheap shot, Keating.

I'm sorry an innocuous statement of support

affects you emotionally.

Voters should remember,

Mr. Denning is under a tremendous amount of stress

at this moment.

Don't think this is a reflection of how he handles pressure.

Okay. Sorry, I'm out of here. No more questions. Thank you very much.

Mr. Keating, could you elaborate on your plan...

Ha ha.

Impressive debate technique.

- Yeah. I showed him. - Yep, showed him.

He reminds me of that idiot captain in Ashgabat.

No, no, you're thinking about the one in Jalalabad.

Oh, that guy. He was a tool.

Yes, he was.

Thanks for coming.

You call, I come. What's going on?

We need to find this Brandy Vargas girl.

'Cause if you can't,

my political career is over before it even starts.

- Tell me how you met this Brandy. -

She volunteered like the others.

She's a poli-sci major, wanted to learn the ropes.

You know, it's the oldest story in the book.

Actually, the oldest story includes...

Oh, come on, Eve, she's just a kid.

Besides, she's not my type.

You know my type.

Yeah, that ended for a real good reason.

Yeah, why was that?

- It'll come to me. - Uh-huh.

Come on. You did the same job as me.

Better than you, actually.

That's adorable.

You know I have to ask.

Look, I barely spoke to her.

I have no connection to her or her family.

I left this town right after we won State in basketball.

Then I came back six months ago after my last tour of duty.

Local boy, high school jock, war hero.

Elections have been won on a lot less.

Please. Keating's a fourth-generation politician.

He's killing me.

Hawthorne's a good town, you know, it's got good people.

It's just been corrupt for years.

I know I can make a difference.

Help me.

I'm a soft touch for you,

but I need anything you can give me on Brandy,

on what might've happened.

I don't know what happened.

But I had nothing to do with this,

despite what the press and the police think...

- What is it? - Nothing, I just...

Okay. I'm sorry. I gotta take this. Excuse me.

This is Sam, yeah?

You gotta be kidding me.

- Hey. What's... what... - Hi.

- What are you doing here? - What are you doing here?

The Clipping Book called us. There was...

- we're here about a girl that's... - Missing. Brandy Vargas.

That's why I'm here.

Wait, the Clipping Book sent you?

Thought you were here visiting a "friend."

Yeah, friend or a... friend friend?

Sam Denning. We served together. He's...

The bloke that everyone thought killed the girl.

He did not kill the girl.

First, she's missing, not dead.

Second, I know Sam a lot better than you do.

- What? - Well, Jones found...

I hacked into your "friend's" phone.

Brandy Vargas texted him the day she disappeared.

Hey, those folks looking for buttons or posters?

- We need to talk. - Okay.

What's our rule? The one rule all this time?

- No lies. - And you just lied to me.

Not in the way you think.

Oh, now you can tell lies that aren't lies?

Wow, you really are a politician.

Okay, look, I knew her more than casually, yes,

but not in that way.

She was working for me on Keating.

She was digging stuff up.

Using an intern for your scut work?

I couldn't do that. You know that.

But she wanted to do it. She believed in the cause.

She was trying to impress you.

- Probably. - What else did you lie about?

Nothing.

Did she try and contact you the day she disappeared?

Oh, Sam.

Take me to the "usual place."

- -

- You sure this is it? -

Report said the road worker saw her run in here.

Well, Denning definitely had Brandy's GPS on his phone.

Her last text message came from here, guaranteed.

What is that?

Was something roasting marshmallows?

It's definitely a burn mark.

It's more than a burn.

It's a glyph.

- Sorry, what? - 17th century.

It's a Puritan symbol.

- What does it mean? - Devil.

Whoa!

Whoa, ah. So glad you're not the devil.

Sorry, who are you?

These are my... co-workers

with the... private security firm

I...run.

"Run."

Uh, we're here looking for Brandy Vargas.

Well, I can tell you, she sure as hell isn't here.

- Whoa! - Aah!

Figured you're still a double shot cap.

I'll bet you're still a non-fat triple shot latte, right?

So this is nice, huh?

After all these years,

we can still talk over coffee...

Okay, I'm sorry, seriously?

Were you gonna just blow by this thing?

Why did Brandy's body just suddenly appear

and fall through the ceiling?

Who's lying now, Eve?

- I'm not lying. - Oh, come on!

A-a private security firm, really?

You got a kid, some cute chick,

and a guy who looks like he's a bar fighter.

And a scorched body just falls out of thin air?

You know, you got all high and mighty with me before,

but you are lying through your teeth right now.

You think Cassandra's cute?

Magic... is... real.

Wow.

Wow.

You know what? You don't wanna tell me?

- That's fine. I don't care. - Magic is real.

- Yeah? - And we're... my team...

our... our job is to keep it in check,

to keep it out of the hands of those who would use it...

For evil instead of good?

You sound like a freaking theme park ride.

You saw it, Sam!

My team shows up wherever magic is happening. You saw it.

Oh, come on. If that were true, people would know.

People do know. We know.

It's like when we used to hunt WMDs, Sam.
