[seeing Kroenen descend the stairs into his library]

I see the puppet... but where is the puppeteer?

Grigori Rasputin

Very good, Professor Broom. [Broom turns to see him sitting nearby]

It was you. The scraps of paper. Liz's sudden relapse and return.

Grigori Rasputin

Breadcrumbs on the trail, like in a fable. They both distract him, and guide him exactly where I need him.

Moscow?

Grigori Rasputin

His destiny. [rises] And the last clue will be left by the late Professor Broom. You raised the child, nurtured him... so in return, I will permit you a brief, brief glimpse of the future.

Grigori Rasputin
[Rasputin puts a hand on Broom's forehead, showing him a vision of a destroyed New York City, the Ogdru Jahad free, and Hellboy with a crown of flame amidst the ruins.]

He will open the portal and bring about the end of the world. If only you had had him destroyed sixty years ago, none of this would have come to pass... but then, how could you have known? Your God chooses to remain silent. Mine lives within me. Every time I died and crossed over, a little more... [tentacles writhe in his hand] of the master came back with me. He disclosed to me the child's true name. Would you like to know it?

I know what to call him. I call him... son.

[Broom turns back to the open book and sets down his rosary.]

I'm ready.

Grigori Rasputin
[puts a hand over Broom's]

It'll be quick.
[As Vera Lynn's "We'll Meet Again" plays on the record player, Kroenen stabs the professor through the throat with one of his blades, killing him.]

Hellboy [Being hit on the head with a fire extinguisher]: Hey! I'm on your side!

Train conductor

Sure! [Hits him on the head again]

[Carrying the torso of the re-animated corpse over his shoulder]

How you doing back there, Ivan?

[In Russian]

If I still had legs, I'd kick your ass!

[To fellow agent]

Could you hold this guy for a while? He is so negative.

Miss Sherman? Can I call you Liz? It's a beautiful name.

60 percent of the women in the world are named Liz.

Well, it's impressive by my standards. My name's John. John T. Myers. Dr. Broom asked me to invite you back to the Bureau.

In the dark I heard your voice, what did you say?

I said, "Hey, you on the other side – let her go. Because for her I will cross over, and then you'll be sorry."

Nazi General

Five years of construction and research, Grigori. Five years! The Führer doesn't look kindly on failure!

Grigori Rasputin

There will be no failure, General. I promised Herr Hitler a miracle. I'll deliver one! What I do tonight, can never be undone! I will open a portal, and awaken the Ogdru Jahad – the Seven Gods of Chaos! Our enemies shall be destroyed, and from the ashes– a new Eden will arise.

[Opening Narration]

What is it that makes a man a man? Is it his origins, the way things start. Or is it something else, something harder to describe? For me it all began in 1944, classified mission off the coast of Scotland. The Nazis were desperate. Combining science and black magic they intended to upset the balance of the war. I was 28, already a paranormal advisor to President Roosevelt. I could never have suspected that what would transpire that night would not only effect the course of history but change my life forever.

[Talking to John Myers about the history of Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense]

1937: Hitler joins the Thule Society, a group of German aristocrats obsessed with the occult. In 1938, he acquired the spear of Longinus, which pierced the side of Christ. He who holds it becomes invincible. Hitler's power increases tenfold. 1943: President Roosevelt decides to fight back. The Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense is born. 1958: the Occult Wars finally come to an end with the death of Adolf Hitler.

[Stops walking for a moment, pausing in thought]

1945, you mean. Hitler died in '45.

[Amused]

Did he now?

In medieval stories, there is often a young knight who is inexperienced, but pure of heart.

Oh, come on. I am not pure of heart.

[Who is psychic]

Yes, you are.

Rasputin is back for him. What I'm asking of you is to have the courage to stand by him when I am gone. He was born a demon; we can't change that. But you will help him, in essence, to become a man.

Tom Manning

Every time the media gets a look at him, they come running to me. I'm running out of lies, Trevor.

I thought you liked being on television.

Tom Manning

I do. [lights a cigar] So, how many escapes, this year alone? Five?

Tom, he's our guest, not a prisoner.

Tom Manning

Yeah, well, your "guest" happens to be six-foot-five, bright red, has a tail, and is government funded.

[Grigori Rasputin: What have you done?] [Stabs Rasputin in the stomach with one of his horns]

I chose.

[Liz Sherman: In the dark, I heard your voice, what did you say?]

I said, "Hey, you on the other side – let her go. Because for her, I will cross over, and then you'll be sorry."
