Luke needs us.

- Where're we headed?

- The Institute.

We'd be breaking the accords.

Not if we stay human.

- Let's go, guys!

- Go, go!

Come on, move it!

Move it!

Ready to go.

They've all been briefed.

This is Alaric.

He's one of us.

Go ahead. You can hang your head out

the window if you need to.

I'm a Werewolf,

not a Golden Retriever.

Simon!

- Just wait here, I'll be back.

- What? No.

Isabelle, I can't just...

No. Isabelle.

Come on, Isabelle, where are you?

Alright, move it!

Come on, move it!

Alright.

The werewolves are here to save us.

Never thought I'd say that.

Finally! Isabelle.

Open up the door.

It looks like he's responding.

He'll survive.

And be careful.

You're being invaded.

Summoning all these bloody demons...

Run!

Run!

- Where are we going?

- There's another exit!

Wait.

Isabelle!

- I almost killed you.

- Yeah.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

This place is full of demons.

That's impossible.

The Institute is hallowed ground.

No one seems to have told them that.

Someone on the inside

must have let them in.

This is a rescue mission.

We are not equipped to fight demons.

Spread out! That way.

Move back! Come on!

We could use some help, Alaric!

Alaric!

Come on. There must be some

other way out of here, right?

No, there isn't, Simon!

We can't hold them much longer.

Step away.

Step away!

Clary, which rune is that?

- I don't know, it's just...

- I've never seen it before.

- Really?

- It's not in the book.

It's fading.

They're coming in through somewhere.

I'm going to stop them.

Come on.

You guys go.

We'll catch up.

No!

They're coming from the Dome.

Come on.

Jocelyn, you never left my heart.

I've come to take you home.

She's not going anywhere.

How did you get up here?

You're even more powerful

than I anticipated.

Get away from her.

What the hell?

Just listen to what he has to say.

It's not what you think.

Finally...

both my children together.

My daughter and my son.

I'm so sorry, Clary.

I didn't know.

Valentine's lying.

You're Michael Wayland's son.

Luke said my brother is dead.

He died in a fire and they found

his remains in the ashes.

I took Jonathan with me when I ran.

The bones were

of a child killed by wolves.

I wish it wasn't true.

She doesn't want to believe you...

because she is in love

with you, Jonathan.

I thought your name was Jace.

Jace is a nickname.

Jonathan Christopher...

J.C.

Jace.

There's the lever.

You go close the dome

and I'll hold them off.

Take out the Cup, Clary.

Take out my Cup!

I want that Cup!

You said you wouldn't hurt her!

That's enough.

Now!

- It's stuck!

- Close it!

I can't!

I think there's a piece missing!

Clary!

I really need this!

Mom?

- Find the others.

- Alright.

Alright. You want to take

the upstairs or the downstairs?

I'm not too crazy about the basement.

I can't hold them back any longer.

Simon, hurry!

Clary.

Hello, Mr. Garroway.

Looks like you're having a "ruff" day.

I guess the humane thing to do

in this situation...

would be to put you down.

But you wanted to see me change?

I do.

Get up!

So, boy, how far

do you want to take this?

To the end.

Simon!

Isabelle!

Lean on me!

- Get out! Go on!

- Okay.

Get out of here!

Come on.

Go!

Somebody told me that

you like to play music.

Johann would be very proud.

Now you shall die by Raziel's sword.

Stop!

Or I'll drop it!

You don't want to do that.

Don't give it to him, Clary.

I need you to listen to me.

As your father, I'm begging you.

If you'd been a real dad,

you'd know me well enough...

to imagine where the Cup is.

Where my deepest

thoughts are taking it.

You don't know

the first thing about me.

You're not my dad.

And you never will be.

I promise you'll never

have to see me again.

Thank you, Clary.

Without this Cup, we are lost.

Not we...

You.

Clary, no!

- Don't let me go!

- Never!

Here!

Are you okay?

I don't know.

I understand why you did what you did.

And I forgive you.

I want you to know that...

your secret's safe with me.

Hey.

So, how's she doing?

Stable.

The doctors don't know what she took,

so we just have to wait.

I'm sorry.

I guess I'm an old romantic.

I always hoped that when I finally

said "I love you" to someone...

she'd say the same thing back.

- And that someone will.

- Yeah. I know.

You're tired, go sleep.

We'll take care of her.

- Okay.

- Yeah? Come on.

Underneath the echoes

Buried in the shadows

To see your ghost

But you must know

I'll be here waiting

Hoping, praying that

This light will guide you home

When you're feeling lost

I'll leave my love

I like what you've done with the place.

I've got a few tricks up my sleeve.

Clary, we're afraid

you're not coming back.

It's just really hard

to be around you right now.

It's hard for me, as well.

But this is about more than us.

You have an incredible gift

and we need you.

I need you.

I just don't know.

Remember when I said

I'd never seen an angel?

Well, I lied.

You're still the bravest mundane

I've ever met.

I'm not a mundane.

Wait, Jace!

Be here waiting

You took your time.

You said you needed me.

When you're feeling

- You should keep that safe.

- Yeah.

Is it okay if I...?

- Do I...? Is it okay if I...?

- Yeah.

Look, Clary, I don't believe it.

It doesn't feel like the truth.

Not in my heart.

I just don't know how to look

at the world anymore.

I don't see streets and traffic lights

and cars. I see demons and angels.

- Everything's different.

- The world's the same.

You're the one who's different.

- Don't you remember what Hodge said?

- What?

All the stories are true.

When the darkness comes
