Speaker 1 (00:00):
Mordeo is a production of I Heart Radio, Blumhouse Television,
and Crypto TV in association with Wolf at the Door.
My father used to tell me most people live their
lives following the long, unremarkable road to the middle. To
(00:25):
be something more, to be remarkable, you have to be
willing to make hard choices. This is a steak, Quiet, Ashley,
(01:05):
don't look. God, damn myself. They hear us. We die
and I understand. Get now what are those things? Just
stay long? Oh, don't breathe. They're gonna kill us. We
(01:34):
have to get out of here. We stay in cover
until it's clear. I Sam. His boats were coming out
of his skin. There are horns, no aislers coming out
of his school. His blood was everywhere, and he was screaming,
(01:58):
Oh good, screaming what is he? They're called the Mordeo,
Immortal creatures of death, predators damned for eternity to an
insatiable hunger for flesh. What you saw on that footage,
(02:21):
Michel Reid, was nothing short of a monster. Where did
they come from? They've been living in the shadows of
the Monongahela for centuries, luring the unsuspected and praying on
the weak of spirit. I don't understand, Missus Marshall, how
is Isaiah Williams. The Mordeo were borne from a curse,
(02:43):
an eternal punishment for humans who spill blood on their
land and consume the flesh of those they kill. Consume
you're talking cannibalism. Yes, so this whole time I was
right about Gabe. Isaiah murdered him in those woods. In
(03:05):
my experience, the path to the Mordo is never as
simple as murder. But it is that simple. He killed
his own brother. He, Oh Jesus, he ate him. Whomever
he killed, whomever's flesh he took, is no longer our concern.
He is what he is now. He must be stopped.
(03:30):
Calm what's down there publicly the basement of the historical
society Wing, But for the chosen this leads to the
sanctuary of the Ward the Lord. Yes, the Ward is
(03:52):
a collective that has pledged to protect the living against
the Mordo. Wait, is that the skull of the us
more day oh ever, killed by our first Warden. It's unbelievable,
those teeth. I've never seen anything like it. This skull
(04:12):
not only symbolizes our cause, it's one of our greatest tools.
We've discovered they have a certain interconnectivity. The skull called
to Isaiah, causing him to transform into his more day,
in form and confirming our suspicions. Paul Douglas, he was
(04:33):
one of you, the journals, the coordinates he was hunting Isaiah. Yes,
you knew when you took me to his home. You
knew i'd find them. Each time we lose one of
our own, it is my duty as mother to choose
a replacement. These things are dangerous. People should know they're
out there, and what if they did. Knowledge is a
(04:57):
double edged sword. However, many may take up the fight
against the Mordeo, there would be as many sacrifice in
others to join them. For immortality, for limitless strength, for
almost unchallengeable power. Our fight to preserve life would only
grow if they're immortal. How can you possibly stop them?
(05:22):
You'll learn all that once you're inducted. The question is
are you willing to make that kind of sacrifice? Yes,
I took a vow to serve and protect. Isn't that
why you chose me. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Your offer to join us is conditional, conditional on what
(05:46):
there's another we are interested in along with you, like
a partner from our intel. This recruit has seen Isaiah's
true self by now and has a personal reason to
fight alongside us. Who Ashley Williams Ashley, she'll never agree
(06:06):
for your sake. I pray she does. Those who know
of the ward must become members of our family. A
refusal would render you both defectors, for which the penalty
is death. Ashley, are you the witney? Yeah? How long
(06:35):
have you known? How long has he been whatever he is?
Since he came back, since he lost game and the gape?
I don't know. I'm sorry as I think it's Isaiah.
(06:58):
He's turning back. This is what chance? There's still another
one him? There's always been another. Who knows how many
really are out there? Why you're not coming with me?
I you have to go after him. I can't just
leave you out here. Go home to your daughter, but go.
(07:22):
I'll be right behind you. Thank you for coming after me.
You saved my life. If you're the person isaias as
you are, you'd have done the same. I'm coming. Is this?
(07:46):
I call this Poppies Frozen Pizza Special. The secret is
add one more layer cheese. You need to eat, Jocelyn,
I'm not hungry. Your mom must just run a little late.
I'm sure she's fine. That's what my mom said about
my dad too. Someone's in the driveway. See I told
(08:08):
you she'd be back. It's a cop car. Wait at Jocelyn.
Detective read did you find my mom? Is she okay?
She heard bow? Slow down? What are you talking about,
Joscelyn whold on a minute. She hasn't been home all night.
Her phone s did go on to voicemail. Okay. I
(08:31):
was actually talking about to have a word with Ashley.
She's not home. Wow, you listening to me? Something is wrong.
She's just running late from She's over and Randa at
a family constant group that's not going there for a
few weeks. And where's Isaiah. This doesn't concern you, Michelle.
You're not welcome here. Just have her call me. It's important.
(08:57):
But let's go on back inside. M Hm, you're a lie, John.
Something happened to her. I won't forgive you. I'll hate
you like all the rest of them. Do I sah Jesus, Yeah,
(09:34):
I say, hey, you're awake, you're with me. Good. It'll
be easier this way. I'm sorry, but I have to
you tell me to do it. You said, good soldier
knows when he's down. I can't. I can't kill you.
(10:02):
I can't see you being my dad. Idea this time, Mom, Mom,
(10:25):
Hi baby, where you sleeping? Where were you? Okay, listen
to me, Jocelyn. I need you to go upstairs and
pack up some things. Okay, but why tell me what's
going on? Just do this okay for me? Okay, Ashley,
Michelle came by looking for you. Good. I have to
(10:48):
talk to her. Keep your eyes on, Jocelyn. Got it.
New poon UK translate death death man. I tush the
(11:16):
devil and all those meant for death failed to the
mercy of the devil. Ashley. I tried to call you
stop by your house. You don't look good. You were
right about Isaiah, about everything. Maybe you should sit down.
You're shaken too. Let me get you a blanket. I
(11:38):
don't need a fucking blanket, all right? Maybe this will help.
Whiskey always calms my nerves. Thanks. Yeah, what I'm about
to tell you. I wish there was anyone else who
might listen. But you have always hated him, and that's
(12:01):
why I know you'll believe me. I'm listening Isaiah, he's
he's Jesus. How do I I know he killed Gabe?
I saw what he's become. I don't mean that metaphorically.
I saw it. I saw him. I Oh. I don't
(12:22):
even know how to explain it. I must be fucking crazy, right.
I finally lost it. They're called the Mordo and Isaiah.
It's just the tip of the asperg Hey, it's Cat.
(12:46):
Not answering because I don't want to talk. Text Cat,
answer the phone. I need to know you're okay. I
have the truck. You wan't at the hotel. I'm I'm
back at the house now. Please be his life. You
have to be alive, Ashley, Jocelyn you? Oh, Cat? Are
(13:10):
you here? Cat? Ashley, Josh Ashley, Jesus, they're not here.
What happened here? Is someone break in? No looks like
the place being ran. They packed in a hurry. I'm
(13:31):
here for the last of their thing. They're staying with you.
I can't say. What do you mean? You can't say?
Ashley was insistent, said they weren't safe here anymore, that
we needed to get Jocelyn out as soon as possible.
She said that what about me. I know I have
no place to lecture you. I was never much of
a father after your mother died. But no matter what
kind of choices you made, I always thought it was
(13:52):
for the good of your family, even if misguided. I
never thought you'd do anything to put anyone in danger.
Your mother raised you better than that. Now, whatever trouble
you've gotten yourself into, you can make it right. No
I can't. That's just right, and it isn't safe, not
with me around. I say, I can help you. You're
(14:13):
not alone. Yes I am, and I have to be.
Where are you going? I can't stay here, I say,
don't run, trust me. Your demons only follow you. Yeah,
that's exactly what I'm making on. This can't be right.
(14:37):
You saw the proof with your own eyes, Ashley. But
why what would drive I say here to do something
like that? To kill Gabe eat He would be surprised
what people are capable of here and this Ward group,
(15:08):
they go after the creatures, the Moredo. Yes, they kill them.
From what I understand, they try. From what you understand,
something of a new recruit that's just perfect. Look the Ward,
it's not something you just joined. They hand picked their members.
(15:31):
I was chosen with one stipulation. To prove my commitment
to the cause, I have to recruit someone else, you me,
Why me? What would I have to offer? Ashley? You
lost so much, you know what the Mordo can do.
(15:52):
Fuck that. No, I didn't ask to be a part
of any of this. I just want to keep my
daughter safe. What about just just for Gabe, for yourself.
Isaiah took something from you, and in return he was
rewarded for it. Think about it, Isaiah kills your husband
and becomes a predator unrivaled by anything in nature. It's
(16:15):
not right or fair, and you deserve justice. No, I
can't risk putting Jocelyn in that kind of danger. She's
already in danger. Isaiah would never hurt her, just like
you would never have heard Gabe. We'll move, We'll We'll
just get in the car and drive south. Maybe Georgia, Florida.
I can get a job. Listen to me. You can't
(16:35):
run all right. You're in their world now. The more
dao and the wards, whether you like it or not,
no one gets to walk away after they've crossed that threshold.
Once you know their secret, you either live by it
or you die. By It is that a threat? No,
it's just reality. If you try to leave, if you
(16:57):
try to resist, they will kill you to protect their secret.
They'll kill both of us. Damn it because Swan. That
(17:21):
was a station off one of these exits. Hello, okay,
cat on closet, Jocelyn, my mom took my phone. I'm
calling from the pay phone down the block from Poppies.
What's up my mom? She's acting weird. She's not letting
(17:42):
me go home. She's keeping me locked away at Poppies.
I say, I'm scared. Where are you, Canny? Come give
me unclast? Are you there? Sorry, Jocelyn? Sorry for there.
It is exit four y evening. What can I do
(18:09):
for you? You got a gas can? We're all out?
Sorry shit, yeah, manager has been slacking. We've been out
for weeks. Give me one of these all right, thirty
two episode? Did that would be three forty nine, and
you fill it up yourself over there, give me three
dollars on pump two, three bucks on two. You got it?
(18:32):
That's sixty nine, all right, I'm twenty. I got some matches. No,
I'm sorry, I can't give away matches no more? All right? Thanks? Hey,
(18:55):
excuse me. Can I borrow you a ladder? Sure thing
you know smoking will kill you? Ah? I bring it
right back and just keep it. I got a spear. Thanks.
(19:16):
You have been chosen for something beyond yourself, beyond the
lives you came from, beyond even the ones you hold
most year. You have been chosen to take up arms
in the fight between life and death. We as one
and as many act as guardians, protecting and preserving life
(19:40):
at all costs, seeking to destroy the unnatural forces of
this world by whatever means necessary. Sister Read, Sister Williams,
do you hear, under the watchful eye of God and
nature accept the duty you have been called upon to serve?
(20:03):
A Sister Read promised to serve and uppop I Sister Williams,
do you accept our great honor? A Sister Williams, promise
to serve and uphold? Bring forth the ions what on
(20:27):
the souls of our feet. We wear the symbol of
the Ward's skull to signify each step we take under
our sacred white No, we must all understand pain in
order to rise above it, in order to do what
is asked of us. Please no doubt. Welcome to the Ward.
(20:59):
H H You can do this. You need to do this. Okay,
here we go, one two, serving the gasoline coming up. Okay,
this is it, This is it. I wouldn't like that
if I were you you. I saw you filling up
(21:23):
that cup of gasoline, and since you borrowed my lighter,
I decided I wanted to see what you're up to.
This is way more intense than I expected. You don't understand,
probably don't, but I gotta say, of all the ways
to off yourself, lighting yourself on fire is kind of melodramatic,
not to mention painful. I deserve the painful what I've done.
(21:44):
Oh yeah, self loathing? Yeah, I feel you on that.
Please let me do this in peace. You won't get
what you want. You'll feel every second, and you'll wake
up wishing you hadn't. Who are you. I'm a friend
trying to save you from yourself. You don't know me,
(22:05):
and I'm not worth saving. H They never listen here, ash,
(22:31):
This will keep it cool. I'm sorry. I had no
idea getting branded would be a part of it. Are
you all right? All right? Uh? I thought I understood
the world, but it was luck. I was living a lie.
I know what you mean. But looking back, I always
(22:55):
felt like something was missing, this tangible thing that was
somehow being kept from me. Now I know what it was.
I wish I didn't. I have to go careful without
foot for what it's worth. I'm glad to be in
(23:17):
this with someone, and who knows, Maybe this is our
chance to leave the past and the past. Good night, Michelle,
right gone. No one is born exceptional. Everything comes with
(23:42):
the price. Wealth, strength, immortal and unchallengeable power all require
a sacrifice, And minds already headed to the slaughter. Next
(24:16):
time on more dal if that's the only window they
can be killed. We need to make those seconds count.
So what's next? I must admit. And all the time
we've been watching you, I never suspected you'd be of
use to us. So you're saying I shouldn't trust see you. No,
you shouldn't. It's up wrong, flush I Heart Radio. Loomhouse

(16:57):
try to resist, they will kill you to protect their secret.
They'll kill both of us. Damn it because Swan. That
(17:21):
was a station off one of these exits. Hello, okay,
cat on closet, Jocelyn, my mom took my phone. I'm
calling from the pay phone down the block from Poppies.
What's up my mom? She's acting weird. She's not letting
(17:42):
me go home. She's keeping me locked away at Poppies.
I say, I'm scared. Where are you, Canny? Come give
me unclast? Are you there? Sorry, Jocelyn? Sorry for there.
It is exit four y evening. What can I do
(18:09):
for you? You got a gas can? We're all out?
Sorry shit, yeah, manager has been slacking. We've been out
for weeks. Give me one of these all right, thirty
two episode? Did that would be three forty nine, and
you fill it up yourself over there, give me three
dollars on pump two, three bucks on two. You got it?
(18:32):
That's sixty nine, all right, I'm twenty. I got some matches. No,
I'm sorry, I can't give away matches no more? All right? Thanks? Hey,
(18:55):
excuse me. Can I borrow you a ladder? Sure thing
you know smoking will kill you? Ah? I bring it
right back and just keep it. I got a spear. Thanks.
(19:16):
You have been chosen for something beyond yourself, beyond the
lives you came from, beyond even the ones you hold
most year. You have been chosen to take up arms
in the fight between life and death. We as one
and as many act as guardians, protecting and preserving life
(19:40):
at all costs, seeking to destroy the unnatural forces of
this world by whatever means necessary. Sister Read, Sister Williams,
do you hear, under the watchful eye of God and
nature accept the duty you have been called upon to serve?
(20:03):
A Sister Read promised to serve and uppop I Sister Williams,
do you accept our great honor? A Sister Williams, promise
to serve and uphold? Bring forth the ions what on
(20:27):
the souls of our feet. We wear the symbol of
the Ward's skull to signify each step we take under
our sacred white No, we must all understand pain in
order to rise above it, in order to do what
is asked of us. Please no doubt. Welcome to the Ward.
(20:59):
H H You can do this. You need to do this. Okay,
here we go, one two, serving the gasoline coming up. Okay,
this is it, This is it. I wouldn't like that
if I were you you. I saw you filling up
(21:23):
that cup of gasoline, and since you borrowed my lighter,
I decided I wanted to see what you're up to.
This is way more intense than I expected. You don't understand,
probably don't, but I gotta say, of all the ways
to off yourself, lighting yourself on fire is kind of melodramatic,
not to mention painful. I deserve the painful what I've done.
(21:44):
Oh yeah, self loathing? Yeah, I feel you on that.
Please let me do this in peace. You won't get
what you want. You'll feel every second, and you'll wake
up wishing you hadn't. Who are you. I'm a friend
trying to save you from yourself. You don't know me,
(22:05):
and I'm not worth saving. H They never listen here, ash,
(22:31):
This will keep it cool. I'm sorry. I had no
idea getting branded would be a part of it. Are
you all right? All right? Uh? I thought I understood
the world, but it was luck. I was living a lie.
I know what you mean. But looking back, I always
(22:55):
felt like something was missing, this tangible thing that was
somehow being kept from me. Now I know what it was.
I wish I didn't. I have to go careful without
foot for what it's worth. I'm glad to be in
(23:17):
this with someone, and who knows, Maybe this is our
chance to leave the past and the past. Good night, Michelle,
right gone. No one is born exceptional. Everything comes with
(23:42):
the price. Wealth, strength, immortal and unchallengeable power all require
a sacrifice, And minds already headed to the slaughter. Next
(24:16):
time on more dal if that's the only window they
can be killed. We need to make those seconds count.
So what's next? I must admit. And all the time
we've been watching you, I never suspected you'd be of
use to us. So you're saying I shouldn't trust see you. No,
you shouldn't. It's up wrong, flush I Heart Radio. Loomhouse
