According to ancient

mythology, in every

Generation, there are 36

individuals who carry the

Suffering of the world, and

assist those in dire need.

The 36 are amongst us all.

Anyone you meet

could be one of them.

The world exists in the merit

of these 36 righteous people.

Without them, the world we

know would fall into chaos.

Corruption.

And eventually darkness.

To achieve this darkness,

there are those too who have

Chosen evil over good.

They are united by their

leader, Lilith, and are all

Marked by the

symbol of darkness.

Once their mission on this

earth is completed, they are

Destroyed, either by

self-infliction, or by another

Dark one.

Damnation falls on the ones

who do not choose to be evil

And want to escape

the wrath of Lilith.

Lilith's ultimate revenge is

to destroy the 36 by choosing

The same fate that their

namesakes have been

Immortalized.

The final nine have

been discovered.

By abolishing them, darkness

will reign over light.

Hey father, can

you save me?

Hey father!

Agh!

28, Stephen.

Thank you.

Oh, damn it!

Oh my God!

Somebody help me!

No, no!

And cut!

Great job.

Great job.

Great job, Gabriel.

Great job, are you okay?

Yeah.

Good.

Um, Cain, do you really think

that these stiletto pumps work?

I mean, they just,

they feel so fake.

Eve, no more stiletto pumps.

You can throw 'em away!

Okay.

Alright.

Alright that's a

wrap everybody!

Um, Gabriel, why don't you

take Eve back down to holding,

Alright?

And listen, you two rest

up, see you tomorrow.

Okay.

Great job.

Um, I can walk myself down.

You sure?

Yeah, no, it's fine.

Alright, I'll

see you tomorrow?

See you, yeah.

Don't get killed!

Alright you two.

We've got a dead priest in

the subway tunnel on 189th and

Broadway.

Woah.

A father Esteban Lopez from

St. Lazarus in the heights.

Father Esteban?

Ain't that your

family's parish?

Yeah.

Surprised your mother

ain't called you.

Yeah, well, a lot of

other people have.

Somebody apparently broke

into the church, destroyed the

Virgin Mary and cut

off baby Jesus' head.

They also stole some

books from the library.

Listen.

Captain wants you two over

there as soon as possible,

Alright?

'Cause he wants to make sure

that there's no connection

Between the death of the

priest and the destruction

Over at the church.

Detectives Byrnes and Rosen

are covering the murder scene.

How'd he die?

A rock to the head.

Damn.

Yeah.

Man...

It's Halloween.

Yeah, hi mom.

Yeah.

I just heard.

Yes, mother.

It's a shame.

Yeah, me an Michael are going

to investigate right now.

Hello?

Hello?

Heh.

Hello?

Dominic!

Eve, please

let me suck the blood!

Joan, I know that's you.

Happy Halloween!

I swear babe, I had

nothing to do with this.

I know, I know, baby.

You would never do

anything this scary.

Oh, girl, they let you

keep all these shoes?

Yep.

Ooh, you know we

wear the same size.

Then you can keep them

because they've been killing.

I thought we'd all go dancing

for a little bit tonight.

You know, thought it'd be fun.

I thought we were going

to plan for the memorial.

We'll do it, Eve.

But it's Halloween.

And we keep putting it off,

which keeps making it worse.

It's our responsibility

to carry on their names.

Eve, I know, but...

Life had other plans for them.

Aw, leave him alone.

He's too busy being a club

promoter to be thinking about

Others.

Okay, okay.

Enough with the

guilt trip already.

I'm just saying we're

alive and they're not.

That's, that's all.

It's Halloween.

I know you understand

what she was saying, Dom.

But okay, just give me

a minute to get dressed.

It is Halloween.

But tomorrow we'll start

working on the memorial

Planning, okay?

Deal.

Deal.

Alright.

Perfect.

Feel that?

It's freezing in here.

Brings back memories, huh?

Yeah.

Hey Joe.

It may be Halloween, but this

don't feel like kids to me.

It's obviously someone

who has issues with God.

Yeah.

Doesn't everybody?

Oh, father.

Hard to believe you were once

an altar boy at this church.

Do you know what the beheading

of the baby Jesus and the

Desecration of the

virgin Mary means?

The Bible says that when the

desecration of idols starts...

The righteous shall be killed.

And that the end of

our days are near.

Jesus Christ.

I'm sorry father.

But the things you're saying

are making me nervous.

My partner Michael.

We've met.

The neighborhood.

Excuse me.

Montoya.

Yeah.

Yeah, we're here.

Right.

So how you been, father?

Not bad, for an old fool.

I'm sorry about

father Esteban.

He was a good man.

Like you.

Special.

Como esta Tu mama?

She's fine, thank you.

Give her my best.

I will, father.

Joe.

Yeah?

We gotta go.

Forensics is on

the way, father.

Right.

Father.

Once we find out who did this

or get any information on

Father Esteban, we'll be back.

I know you will.

Ladies and gentlemen,

one straight line please!

What's up man.

Come on in, girl.

Thanks Dominic.

Happy Halloween, baby.

Happy Halloween.

And you!

Mm.

It's a delight.

Hey hey!

You look so delicious.

Oh thank you.

I just might change

your diaper, honey.

Enjoy, chosen ones.

This boy is excellent.

Get some drinks.

Thanks Genesius.

Your horns are showing.

Want to trade

costumes with me?

Not really.

Hey!

Maria, hey!

Hey! How are you?

Happy Halloween.

You too.

This is Alessandro.

He works at the hotel.

What'd you say?

Let's go.

Hey Tarzan.

Why are you so sexy?

'Cause me Tarzan!

And me Joan!

His girlfriend.

His boo.

Bye, b*tch.

Killing it, Valentine.

Killing, think so, think so?

Killing it.

Thanks man.

Yeah.

Happy Halloween, guys.

Happy Halloween!

Woo!

You're sweet.

Hey, how's about that sh*t?

Hey, hi.

Hey fellas.

How's it going?

It ain't pretty.

We're working on the lights,

so you're going to need these.

Okay.

Alright, thanks Davis.

My God.

29, Jesus.

He's just a kid.

What the hell are we dealing

with here?

Jesus Ochoa.

He's from the neighborhood.

He's a freshman over

in Washington heights.

Did you get an address

to the family yet?

No, we're working on it.

I'll be outside.

Yes, can I help you?

Are you senora Ochoa?

Yes, I'm Tilda Ochoa.

Oh my God.

My Jesus is not home yet.

Did something happen to him?

I'm sorry senora.

No!

Jesus!

Jesus!

No, God!

Hijo mio...

Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai.

Here you go.

That was my Jesus.

The group honored him as one

of the righteous of tomorrow.

He was such as special boy.

Senora, do you mind?

And these other kids?

Yeah, they're a wonderful

group of kids from the academy

Of royals.

They're the six that escaped

that horrible plane crash

Last year.

In Montreal?

Yes.

God bless them.

You know father Judas is the

only survivor from that

Plane crash.

He was the one who introduced

my Jesus to the group.

Senora, do you mind if

I take this picture?

I'll make sure they return

it to you once we're done.

They're a wonderful

group of kids.

Just like my Jesus.
