[suspenseful music]
[cicadas chirruping]
[roof tiles scrape underfoot]
I miss you.
I’m so glad that Manuel is back.
That he’s alive.
Me too.
We're such pieces of shit.
Do you regret it?
Yes.
Well, no.
[man] This is the correct list.
They’re the students for tomorrow.
That Darío's voice.
[Darío] We shouldn't go for a chemical reaction.
At this point, at this phase, the students are far too conscious.
[man 2] Very good.
Esteban Martín, OK, Cris Figueroa, Gabriel Cuenca, Raúl Corpas,
Elena Galdiz, Gonzalo Sanz...
Eric Guerrero.
Eric, yes.
Maybe we should leave out Eric, Darío.
He’s had an altered state of consciousness and amnesia.
[Darío] We’ll take the risk.
- [Fran] It's dangerous. - [Darío] I know that perfectly well.
[Fran] OK then.
Tomorrow we must make a list for Q27.
Q27.
That's the experiment my mother was sentenced for.
That son of a bitch.
Loads of people died.
That's why she's in prison.
[Amaia] Fuck.
[sniffs]
Fuck.
THE BOARDING SCHOOL: LAS CUMBRES
[girl whispers in Spanish] El Internado Las Cumbres.
[Mario shouts] Bow.
At ease.
One, two...
Turn.
Block!
- Ah! - [students] Ah!
At ease.
One... Two...
Turn.
[Eric] Let’s see, the windowsill, the medicated students,
now I'm on that list.
It’s always, always me. Why me?
Why me?
I was wondering that.
Why me?
Those bastards were keeping me like a guinea pig.
Tied to a bed with wires going everywhere.
[Eric] Did they hurt you?
The worst was when they took me to Room 3.
There was a gas that knocked me out.
I thought that if I stayed awake and looked them in the eyes,
maybe I could convince them to let me go.
[sighs]
I wish I'd met those fucking bastards.
I'd have ripped their heads off.
I tried to hold my breath so many times,
and finally, I managed it.
My lungs nearly exploded,
but I did it.
[guard calls] Let's go, Eric.
See you later.
[sad music]
[Elvira] León.
Where were you?
- I have to tell you something. - [door closes]
I've discovered the secret of the Crow's Nest.
What?
The dragonfly you found in the witch’s grave.
León, it's the key!
The fact that that insect is still alive, after centuries
is proof of a discovery that science today hasn’t yet found.
And that those people...
That they...
FIND ME. I KNOW EVERYTHING. INÉS ALICIA
...knew how to stop aging.
Don't you realise what this means?
[inhales deeply]
[breathes deeply]
I have something very important to tell you, Elvira.
[loudspeaker] All students should remember that punctuality is a mark of respect
for yourself and those around you.
[general classroom chatter]
STUDENTS ON DUTY TODAY
I’m going to take the milk to the dining room, OK?
[glass smashes]
Sorry.
- Sorry, sorry. Excuse me. - [cook] What's all this mess?
- It was me, I'm sorry. - Clean it up right now, OK?
- [whispers] Stay here. - [whispers] What are you doing?
- What is this? - Don't eat or drink anything.
Huh?
The names I heard Darío say last night,
they're the ones on duty today.
- But what-- - Be careful. It's going to be this shift.
- But... - Be careful. Sorry.
[Pelayo] What is it, Miss Uribe?
Are you not feeling inspired?
[snickers]
[school bell rings]
How good does Paul smell?
- And he's so good at kissing. - Yeah.
He's my brother, OK? So spare me the details.
[chuckles] You are jealous!
Jealous?
No way.
But Paul is into Amaia.
- He'll ditch you soon. - What does he see in that girl?
She’s rude and trashy and always angry.
And you?
As soon as Paul realises you’re off your trolley
and up to your eyeballs on pills, he'll drop you, I'm sure.
You're so bitter.
Your girlfriends keep dying
and that's why no one wants to touch you with a barge pole.
[throws down books]
[exhales]
HOW TO BECOME A WITCH OF THE CROW'S NEST
[closes locker]
[Amaia] Your mother was really cool when she was little.
And I thought it was better that you had it.
[nostalgic music]
PATRICIA AND CELIA BEST FRIENDS IN THE WHOLE WORLD
I don’t know if I want it.
I don't know, she escaped from prison and came all the way here.
All just for this?
Do you think they’ve caught her yet?
I don't know.
[footsteps approach]
[footsteps recede]
[ominous music]
[door opens]
Mama, I’m coming to help you now.
Don't get up, please.
I remember your mum, she was very strict.
She’s very old now.
And after what happened to my girl,
she hasn't been the same.
Well.
None of us are.
Celia, it’s awful what happened to you.
My Alba was brave like you.
She wasn't scared of anything.
[peels plaster]
Until one day she met... that monster.
[Celia sniffs]
[opens pill bottle]
What do the police say?
To have patience.
But then another girl died in the same way.
Celia.
Thanks so much for hiding me.
You have to rest now.
- You're very weak. - I don't have time.
I need you to help me.
[ominous music]
[distant rumbling of thunder]
[thunder continues to rumble]
I don't get it, I mean--
[Paz] What if they put something in your juice?
- Noticed anything strange? - [Eric] No, I'm getting paranoid.
So this is where you've been hiding? I've been looking for you all day.
Who's the blonde? Are they a thing or what?
No.
I thought it was weird. She's too pretty.
So when are we going to finish what we started?
With the bottle and all that?
Eva, uh... It was really fun, but it's never going to happen.
Why not?
I'm off.
- [Paz] Be careful, Eric. - Yeah.
Just no.
If I were Eric, I wouldn’t eat anything.
[rain pours]
[loud rumbling of thunder]
[distorted high-pitched scraping]
[distorted scraping fades out]
[wind, rain, thunder outside]
[ominous music]
[loud thunder]
[distorted scraping]
[gasps]
[distorted high-pitched scream]
Amaia! Amaia, what's wrong?
- [Amaia pants] - Did you see it again?
[whimpers] Don't leave me.
I won't leave you, my love. I won't leave you.
- [thunder and rain quieter] - [Amaia whimpers]
[cries] I'm scared.
Yeah.
[bells toll]
Elvira.
What is it?
Seriously.
Is it true?
[gentle piano music]
In the Civil War...
...I fought for the Government of the Republic.
My destiny was death.
Like so many others.
[distant gunfire]
And the Crow's Nest saved my life.
- And stopped time for me. - Like the dragonfly.
[gunfire stops]
I've been frozen in my 30s.
[distant bombing]
When the Nazis invaded Paris...
[distant shouting and bombing]
...I was in a café in Montmartre.
I survived that as well.
[bombing fades out]
I've seen walls built,
that were then torn down.
I've seen people born, then die of old age.
Was it worth it?
[sniffs] Yes.
Yes.
Because I had someone to share it with.
[Amaia] "War, wounded in war..."
No.
MAKESHIFT HOSPITALS
What are you doing?
Why are you always sticking your nose in?
[ominous music]
[Amaia] This one.
It's him! Fuck, it's him!
Are you sure?
[Amaia] "Anselmo Buendía.
Surgeon at the Peaks Sanatorium."
[Eva] Anselmo Buendía? I know him.
I'll introduce you if you want.
[ominous music]
Anselmo Buendía.
[Amaia] "Beatified by Pope John XXIII as a soldier and martyr to the faith."
So the girl-killer is a saint.
Ah, the girl-killer?
[Paz] That mummy has always given me such a fucking bad feeling.
Maybe you’re having nightmares because you’ve seen it before?
Oh, I see. You're having nightmares about the mummy.
[sighs] OK, why don’t you go sniff some glue?
Piss off, Goldilocks.
[door creaks open]
Hmm. I like it. Maybe I'll get a tattoo.
[Mara] Students in the choir may attend the ceremony,
but I’d prefer it if the rest of them stayed watching from the windows.
- Yes, they could easily get loose. - Yes, but it’s a shame.
The path to the shrine to lay down the virgin is very impressive.
See?
- These friars are off their faces. - [Amaia] Shh!
There's no more.
What? What are you doing?
- Over there. - Leave the wine, always with the wine.
I’m going to look. Maybe there’s some here the three of us can take.
[Amaia] Go, go, go.
Eva, quick, go!
[Amaia whispers] They're coming. Get in there.
I’m surprised you’ve convinced the headteacher
to bring back part of the school’s traditions.
- [Amaia] Come on! - [Eva] A secret cupboard, that’s so cool.
[Salvador] Tradition is always a comfort to hold on to.
[Pelayo] You're right, Salvador.
[ominous music]
No one's been here for centuries.
What is that?
[Amaia] Of course.
These must be things that the Inquisition seized
from the Satanists of the Crow’s Nest.
Paul and I read about it in one of those old archives.
Oh, wow.
I think he had a better time with me in the broom cupboard.
[gasps]
Amaia.
These are the lanterns they send up into the sky.
Then the girls turn up dead.
- We have to burn or destroy them! - [Paz] No!
You guys are in pretty deep, aren't you?
Eva, shut up.
Come on, go.
- [door opens] - [Paz] They've gone.
Let's go.
[gentle piano music]
[stops playing]
[distant corridor chatter]
[Inés] Where were you? What happened to you?
Have we really lived through everything you said, for all this time?
How is it possible?
Why don't we age?
[sad music]
[León inhales] You always used to say that it wasn't magic.
It was science.
[sad music continues]
And now you.
You're forgetting as well.
[music gets louder]
I'm sorry.
[sighs] León, if all of that is true,
then I don’t want to spend one more minute here.
What are we doing here?
Why am I wearing this uniform? Let's go right now.
- We can't. - Why not?
I made an agreement with him.
I don't want to keep faking that I'm the daughter of that psycho.
What's he doing in our house?
Because he managed to stop you from forgetting your yesterdays.
But he's lying.
He's gone mad.
I have a plan.
You just have to keep going a little longer.
[Inés sighs]
Please.
Trust me.
OK.
[purposeful music]
[Darío] Inés?
Hey.
How's my girl?
I'll see you later, Papa. I've got class.
[corridor chatter]
[piano playing]
[piano louder]
Sergeant Zamora,
I'd like to tell you something that I think may interest you.
[distant door open and closing]
[water dripping]
[door creaks open]
[ominous music]
[door creaks]
[door slams shut]
[bangs] Hey! Hey!
[shouts] The door!
Hey!
Fuck, hey!
Such shouting.
Can you open it?
Where were you, mate?
Luis sent me to clean the freezers.
- See anything strange? - No.
[pants] I'm really losing it, mate. We've got a break now.
OK, well make sure you lock the door properly so no one can get in.
Yeah.
[students chatter]
Look at this apple, I ain't eating. I'm going to chuck it.
No, no, I'll just eat it.
[suspenseful music]
[gentle hissing]
[hissing gets louder]
[hissing continues]
[music builds]
- You. - Yeah?
Is it true you're with Eva?
OK, brilliant.
It's cool. You go your way, I'll go mine.
It's better that way.
[opens locker]
[exhales]
[Manu] I’m drooling, mate.
But I don't know.
She's kind of weird, right?
Something's going on with her. Although who am I to talk?
I suppose I'm different now too.
Manu, it's just before you disappeared,
there was no fucking satanic lodge at the school.
- And so many other things. - [Manu] Yeah.
Hey.
When we get out of here, we’re going to ride in style.
Just imagine yourself on the beach, with that little freak of yours.
A beer and a book in your hand. Reading all night by moonlight.
While me and Amaia...
Mmm!
Mate, hey.
[Julio shouts] Oy, hey! Come here!
Paz! Paz!
OK, let me.
[banging door] Eric, are you in there?
I can't... I can't open it!
[breathes deeply]
- Fuck. - There's no one here.
What do we do now?
[Paz] Eric?
- Look at me. Have you seen Eric? - [student 1] No.
- Has nobody seen him? - [student 2] He isn't with us.
[student 3] What's up?
- Did you see Eric earlier, in there? - [student 4] No.
I don't understand.
[siren sounds]
[police radio chatter]
Cavila, what’s up?
- Has something happened? - We’re looking for a fugitive.
Can you please open your boot?
Seriously?
I don't understand why you're bothering residents
instead of looking for my daughter's killer.
It's a disgrace you're wasting time with me.
All right. All right, go ahead.
[engine starts]
[suspenseful music]
That was close.
[sad music]
[coughs]
[Eva] You're so bitter.
Your girlfriends keep dying
and that's why no one wants to touch you with a barge pole.
[coughs]
[engine off]
Is this Darío Mendoza's house?
When I used to run away from school,
I'd come here.
Are you sure you want to go in?
[cocks rifle]
[pops boot]
[pants]
[rifles]
[car approaching]
Shit, shit.
[Darío calls] Inés, are you still angry?
You know the best thing for you right now is to stay home and rest.
- Hey! Inés? - [pants]
[Inés] I'm not mad, Papa.
I have to go back.
[footsteps climb stairs and approach]
[Patricia exhales]
[whispers] Alicia.
[Darío] Inés? Darling?
I have to go back. Can I bring you something?
Do you need anything?
Nothing.
OK.
Bye.
Who are you, how do you know me?
[exhales]
You've lost your memory.
That man's not your father.
I'm sorry, Alicia. This is all my fault.
PARIS, 5 YEARS EARLIER
[in French] For my wife. Her name's Frédérique.
Thank you.
You achieved your dream in the end. You became a scientist.
I’ve followed your career very closely, Patricia.
[gasps]
[Alicia] I remember you used to think I was a witch.
Well at least someone who never grows old.
Unfortunately, I have to pay a very high price.
What is that price?
Forgetting.
Which is akin to dying.
[gentle piano music]
[Alicia] I have this present for you.
It's something I want you to have.
[gasps]
This book is...
One of the volumes of the Draco Musca.
Then it exists.
It's real.
The legend...
says that this level of knowledge has never been achieved again.
And the other two volumes?
Patricia, the Draco Musca is a treasure.
But it's also very dangerous. I've seen many misuse it.
It corrupted them. They went mad.
Why are you giving it to me?
Because I want to ask something very important of you.
I’ve been searching for a cure for amnesia.
I know that the book can give you a clue but I haven't been able to decipher it.
Can you help me?
I've just partnered up with a neuroscientist.
He's one of the best in the world.
If there's a cure for you,
we will find it.
You were right.
The book drives people mad.
My partner, Darío Mendoza,
stole the Draco Musca.
And found a way to get rid of me.
And now,
he has the book.
And he has you.
Have you come back for the book?
I just want my children back.
But to do that I have to prove that Darío is a criminal.
I know that he has a record of the Q27 project.
They're illegal medical tests that caused the death of several people.
[exhales]
He blamed me and I was sentenced for it.
I need to find that record.
But it's not here.
And I'm sure he won't have destroyed it.
He must always carry it on him.
Did you figure out how to cure me?
Current science... can't give you back your memories.
Listen to me, Alicia.
You have to find the Crow's Nest.
Only they can cure you.
[ominous music]
- [Paz] Eric! - He's not here.
Fuck.
Have they put him in the hole?
[shouts] Bastards!
What are you doing? Are you stupid or what? Shut up!
We have to help him! What's wrong with you?
- Don't mess with my head, Paz. - Are you stupid or what?
Manu, hey! Hey!
Enough.
Paz, calm down.
What is that?
The list of students in Q27.
Eric is here.
[Paul] Shit.
ROOM 3
They’ve taken Eric to Room 3.
Can we talk a moment?
What did you do before you came to this school?
I'm a music teacher. I already said.
How strange.
We haven't found any other schools where you gave classes.
You can keep looking.
[chuckles]
Actually, it seems like you're a ghost.
You leave no traces.
And is that a crime?
It depends.
Have you been to Lisbon?
Yes.
Is that you in this photograph?
A source has told us that it could well be you.
There is an order from Europol to arrest him.
What source?
Is it you, or not?
[León exhales]
[water running]
[water stops]
[someone hiccupping]
[hiccupping continues]
Are you getting drunk without me?
You weren't there.
Where were you?
Why does everyone leave me?
OK, come on, let's go.
You’ve been spared the freezers because the music teacher isn’t here, otherwise...
[sighs] Come on, we still have a little while, let’s have some fun, OK?
[Spanish rap]
[Eva chuckles] Adèle.
[wind blows]
[wind whistling]
[ominous music]
Now I understand why my father liked whiskey so much.
Did he drink a lot?
Mmm.
When my mother was in prison.
He took pills too.
[shouts] Adèle!
You know, it's all my mum's fault.
[both laugh]
[coughs]
Your brother just ditched me.
[giggles]
I told you so.
[León] That photo's blurry, it could be anyone.
You're wasting your time, Officer.
Understand my doubts.
Nothing ever happens in this place.
Until one day two girls are kidnapped and murdered in the forest.
And someone executes my sergeant at point-blank.
I don't know, I'm only a local police officer, but it's odd, no?
That this all happened just as you arrived.
What do you want? Should I call a lawyer?
Where exactly were you on the nights that Alba and Rita were murdered?
- You've got it wrong, Officer. - What was your relationship with Rita?
[León sighs]
I was her music and singing teacher.
Did you spend much time alone with her?
[snorts]
Or with Alba Gonzalez?
Have you had any relationships with girls or teenagers in the area?
How dare you?
Some teachers are saying you have a special relationship with Inés Mendoza.
Look, Officer.
If you had any evidence against me at all,
we'd be having this talk at the station.
So you can arrest me and take me with you,
or go away and leave me alone.
Thank you.
By the way...
what happened to your forehead?
An accident.
Hmm.
Be careful.
And don't go far.
[door closes]
Don't move, OK?
What are the police doing here?
It seems there's news about the murder of Alba.
What news?
I don't know, but Sergeant Zamora is in there questioning León.
[ominous music]
[exhales]
[spooky whistling]
[whispers] Celia, stay calm.
[whispers] You can't get out just now, OK, the police are here.
[gates close]
- [engine off] - Wait until they leave, OK?
[car door opens]
[loudspeaker] Lights will be turned out in five minutes.
Rest is essential for good academic performance.
[owl hoots]
[sighs]
[groans]
[gasps]
What are you doing?
[Eva] Bringing a bit of happiness to this school.
No, don't set off anymore! Get down!
- Where the hell did you get them from? - A room from the Inquisition.
You should have seen Amaia's face, she was shitting herself.
Do you know what you're doing?
Someone's going to die because of you, like Rita and Alba!
Adèle, they're candles.
Candles.
I just wanted to scare her!
Seriously?
[piano music]
[ominous music]
[loud scraping]
[footsteps]
[ominous music returns]
[door closes]
[ominous music]
I want to see all of you down at the station.
Now, yes!
Come on, man! Let's go.
[engine starts, siren]
[Manu] We have to find a room full of arches.
From there, I'll be able to get us to Room 3.
Even if the killer is a decomposed mummy, I saw him there.
I swear.
What? Who did you see?
[distorted buzzing]
[rattling]
[sounds fade]
They were there! The killer's clothes were hanging there and now they're not!
[Paul] Well, there's nothing here.
[Manu] This looks like an old operating theatre.
AIR, LIGHT AND REST CURES THE PEAKS SANITORIUM

- Shit, do you hear that? - [Paz] What the fuck is that?
[Amaia] It’s the killer, fucking hell!
[all shout] Paz, wait!
- [Julio] Paz, wait! - [Paz wails]
[Julio and Amaia] Paz!
- [Julio] Paz! - [Amaia] Don't go alone, Paz!

[door bangs shut]
Eric!
- [all pant] - [Julio] Hey, where were you?
[Amaia] We were looking for you for ages.
[Julio] Are you OK?
- [Julio] Are you OK or not? - [Eric] Yes, I'm fine. Why?
Hey, where's Paz?
Don't know. Haven't seen her, why?
Are you sure?
- I'm going to look for her. - Nothing happened.
Come on, let's mosey out.
Hey, have you seen Paz?
My best friend with the shaved head?
[student] Yeah, she was around here, they took her to the freezers.
Mara's just gone crazy. It kicked off and she's locked everyone up.
Shit.
[muffled weak groans]
[ominous music]
Ah.
[groans]
