Fet was surprisingly losing hope on tonight’s episode of “The Strain”. Fet was usually the one that always had a fight in him yet the Central Park Massacre changed everything for him. He had thought that the human was finally going to win only to have the rug pulled from underneath him. So Fet was beginning to believe that maybe the human race wasn’t going to make it after all. However, the professor still had a plan and he believed that it would be enough to stop the Master from masterminding anything ever again.
The professor had recently found out, thanks in large part to the Lumen, that they could trap the Master and keep him imprisoned for centuries. The book had stated that there had been another incident where one of the ancient ones strived to control the earth. But the early Egyptians had been able to stop him. They had lured him into a trap and he had buried deep into the earth in a silver and lead lined coffin. So the professor realized that plan could work again with the Master. All they had to do was find the right sort of coffin.
Yet, Fet was highly skeptical of the plan by this point. They had tried to kill the Master before however that plan didn’t work and they had also failed at killing the Master’s creatures that went on to butcher over two hundred people in Central Park. So Fet was admittedly hesitate when it came to trusting another plan that might just end up as all the others. A huge failure that unfortunately raised far too many hopes. The professor on the other hand didn’t want to lose faith and counsel Fet not to lose either.
The professor didn’t want them to give up the fight because he knew that one day they would win out against the Master. However, the professor also knew that he and Fet weren’t alone in fighting the strigoi. There was also Eph, Dutch, and even Quinlan. Quilan had gone to see what Eph and Dutch had been working on so he saw that they had been able to pick up the frequency that the Master transmits to his followers. He said that the Occido Lumen had called that the Master’s voice. So Quinlan had been eager to test out Eph and Dutch’s theory about the voice.
They had said that they could probably trace the voice to the Master’s location so Quinlan of course had to see if that was true. But the voice that Eph and Dutch believed was the Master’s because it was so such a strong signal was apparently outside of the safety zone. So it was a great risk to all of them to drive that far away from reinforcements because of a theory yet Quinlan had to see it for himself and he didn’t care about what was no man’s land. Which was the area that was now frequently known for crime and overall danger to everyone outside of the safety perimeter.
Yet, Quinlan still wanted to go and he actually hadn’t been surprised when he drove with Eph and Dutch into no man’s land. Quinlan appeared to see savagery as instinctual and civility as veneer so it didn’t bother him in the least that everyone outside of the perimeter were basically showing their true colors. So the only ones with the problems were Eph and Dutch. Dutch had seen a group of thugs attempting to kidnap a family right there on the street and she felt compelled to help though no one else besides her or her friends had even cared about what was happening.
It seems they had all seen it before. However, Dutch had been a little optimistic. She thought that if she helped people that everyone would be able to see that she and her friends were good, but they just saw them as another group with guns. So Dutch had been disappointed by that and it had genuinely surprised her when the family drove away at the first opportunity because they were afraid that Dutch would then target them. And so there weren’t really heroes and villains outside of the perimeter. Everyone was just trying to survive as best they could.
So Dutch had gotten hurt when she saw how the rest of the world was living and it’s just sad that she wasn’t the only one affected by their mission against the strigoi. Fet had also gotten hurt yet again on tonight’s epsiode. Fet and the professor had driven by their old place when Fet decided to check on his family and found out that his parents had killed themselves. They had apparently gotten infected and suicide had been the only way they could they could hold off the infection. But Fet had later told the professor that suicide ran in the family.
Fet admitted that his grandfather had been a Ukrainian soldier when he had been conscripted by the Russians to fight in the Second World War. Yet, Fet also mentioned that his grandfather had been taken as a prisoner of war by the Germans and that he either was forced or voluntarily acted as a Nazi Collaborator. Either way, though, his grandfather worked at the camps and what he did there had been so horrible that he would kill himself in order to escape what he did. So Fet had told the professor his family’s greatest shame.
However, with that finally off his chest, nothing changed between Fet and the professor. The professor knew what the Nazis had did to all of them during the war and he didn’t want to hold Fet accountable to what may have happened. So the professor still trusted Fet despite what Fet had feared and together they had later met up with Palmer. Plamer had told them that the Master had brought in a shipment that he hadn’t been told about that and that it must have been of great importance seeing as the Master had ordered everyone involved with the shipment to be killed, but Palmer wanted something in exchange for finding out more about this shipment.
Palmer said that he was deadly ill and that he didn’t have the strength to look into anything because he was practically at death’s door. So the professor had ultimately decided to give Palmer a sample of the white. Though he did warn Palmer about using it. He said that Palmer should be in a place where he could rest afterwards and that the affects might be feel strange. And so Palmer had taken the sample and he later woke up with blood red eyes however felt much better physically.
The End!
