Sanctuary · Season 3, Episode 4
“Trail of Blood” · Season 3, Episode 4
In this episode: Nikola Tesla (10), Doctor Will Zimmerman (5), Doctor Helen Magnus (4), Henry Foss (3)
It's a set-up, Magnus, a trap. That's what he does, how he rolls, his modus operandi.
Yes. What if he's posing as the king of a lost mountain tribe and he wants me for his queen! Or what if he actually needs our help?
Fine. I'll get my stuff together. The man comes with a hidden agenda, every time. Every time!
[softly, after Will leaves] That's what makes him so interesting.
Look away. I'm hideous.
How long you been down here?
Well, let's see now, nine days, seven hours. You know, I wish I'd stopped counting, but it's just not in my nature.
[Henry begins to cut Nikola's bonds.]
[to Helen] Ah, you look fabulous!
[Helen gives him a demeaning look. Nikola laughs.]
A whole lot of nothing. None of these connecting tunnels lead upward.
Yeah, none of this stuff works down here.
Yay team.
You're aware of the iron deposits in these caves?
Yeah, what about it?
Highest concentration of natural lodestone in the western hemisphere. To you, it means nothing. To me: manna from heaven.
Your magnetic powers.
Here it comes.
Oh come on, I'm just looking for a way back on top. I mean, being a living magnet is not exactly on par with being heir to the greatest race in all of history. It even has a few drawbacks, like if you're not careful, your razor gets stuck on your face. So...what? I'm just looking for a way to turn this pointless ability into something extraordinary.
So you went after the most powerful natural magnetic substance in the world.
You're damn right I did.
It makes sense, in an evil way.
Oh, please. Can we stop with the value judgments? [to Henry] Hey, man, live and let live, I say.
You know what I say? I say you got yourself into a little bit of trouble, and you dragged us into the mess too.
So stop whining about it. I thought helping people was part of your job description.
Yeah, people. You, Professor Hidden-Agenda, not so much.
We need a way out of here, and we need to keep moving. How's your strength?
Carry me?
I love our little field trips.
I want my life back. Look at me Helen. [Points to Henry, whose back is turned] I'm reduced to parlour tricks, morse code. I can't even get out of a cobweb without help from these chumps. [Indicates Henry and Will] What am I now? Human with-with benefits? It's pathetic!
Care to assist?
Hell, yeah! I-I mean, you know, whatever.
Henry Foss: We're under the kids' bunk beds. No wonder the grownups want to eat us.
We open that door, we get an angry PTA meeting swarming in here.
Never bore your audience.
[after an explosion] Fortunately, I can't hear what any of you are saying. It's very nice.
He kept one of the larvae, didn't he?
Oh, definitely.
You going to let him get away with it?
No. But let him enjoy his moment.
Every time!
