Revelations, Part II/Transcript

Recap Sequence
MAGNUS: [voice over] Previously on Sanctuary...

SCENES FROM 

DRUITT: The war has begun.

CABAL DOCTOR: Abnormals are showing rapid onset of clinical paranoia and extreme aggression.

MAGNUS: Pitting humans against abnormals, deciding who lives or dies. The Cabal must be stopped. It's why I started this mission a century ago.

WILL: Dr. Watson? Not as in James Watson, who's a member of ?

WATSON: Why you here, Druitt?

DRUITT: To save the world; and time allowing, to reassert my superiority.

MAGNUS: Nigel Griffin is dead but his powers passed on to his granddaughter, Clara.

MAGNUS: We only have days to stop the destruction of every abnormal on Earth.

MAGNUS: It may well be the source blood could stop the disease in the form of a synthesized antitoxin.

WILL: Where did Gregory hide the vial?

WATSON: The lost city of Bhalasaam, in the Himalayas.

MAGNUS: And he made sure that only we five, acting in concert, can retrieve it.

DRUITT: Which is a bit of a problem if, in fact, I have killed Tesla.

SCENE FROM 

DRUITT: Ah Nikola.

SCENES FROM 

MAGNUS: It's all been destroyed.

WATSON: It’s over.

MAGNUS: There has to be a way into the labyrinth.

DANA: Your mother and her colleagues will try to stop us. I promise you they'll fail. They'll fail because you're going to help us complete our plan.

Teaser Sequence
'''INT. - CABAL BUILDING'''

[Ashley is seated on a high stool on a platform which has electricity running through it. Dana is standing across from Ashley.]

ASHLEY: Where's Henry?

DANA: Not far.

ASHLEY: If you hurt him, I swear I will...

DANA: Oh, we will hurt him. In fact, the quality and quantity of what remains of his life very much depends on you.

ASHLEY: I’ll tell you whatever you want just let Henry live.

DANA: You think we are, killers, murderers?

ASHLEY: That bioweapon you set off; not exactly charity work!

DANA: In fact that's exactly what it is. A helping hand to the humans, so that they can clearly see the threat to the survival of our species.

ASHLEY: You're starting a war.

DANA: We're controlling our destiny.

ASHLEY: Most of the abnormals are peaceful they aren’t a threat.

DANA: Every abnormal we don’t control is a threat, Ashley, despite your mother's propaganda. How many so-called peaceful abnormals have you destroyed? You know, I like your mother. There was a time I even admired her. But we're fighting for humanity's survival and she's chosen the wrong side. Are you ready to choose yours?

Act I
"REVELATIONS PART II"

'''EXT. - SITE OF CITY OF BHALASAAM - DAY'''

CLARA: Where's the amazing lost city; the temples, the archives, a decent rest room?

MAGNUS: It's gone, destroyed long ago.

WILL: By the age of this vegetation, I'd say, 50, 60 years?

WATSON: One hundred years, if the growth pattern of this Hedera is any indication.

DRUITT: Destroyed how?

WILL: It looks like some sort of massive bombing. It couldn't have been from the air though; there were no planes that could carry that ordnance 100 years ago.

WATSON: Four days of constant bombardment, hundreds of men, and heaviest weaponry. Cannon placements there and there, long and short range; likely a combined effort with Russian, French and Spanish forces.

WILL: I thought by that point in history all the vampires were wiped out.

MAGNUS: They were. They retreated here to preserve what was left of their culture. They’d been culled to within a hairs breath of extinction. They weren't a threat to anyone. This was a slaughter.

WILL: Gregory's instructions mentioned a hall of records as a starting point.

DRUITT: They also mentioned a city, fully intact. For all we know, the caverns below have been destroyed as well.

WATSON: So then John, are you suggesting we just give up?

DRUITT: Oh, don't bait me. I'm not in the mood.

WATSON: Perhaps if we were looking for some nubile lady of the night for you to slaughter, then you'd suddenly perk up and become incredibly helpful!

MAGNUS: Gentlemen, enough!

DRUITT: Good work ole boy, another test of my loyalty.

WATSON: Just checking.

'''INT. - CABAL BUILDING'''

[Henry is strapped to a chair and doctors are all around him. They are taking blood and monitoring varies equipment.]

HENRY: Ah!

(GRUNTS WITH PAIN)

HENRY: What do you want from me? Talk to me!

CABAL DOCTOR: How long have you known of your condition?

HENRY: It's not a condition.

CABAL DOCTOR: Do you know the exact geographical region where you were found? What kind of treatments has Dr. Magnus prescribed? Can you elaborate on their effectiveness, length of transformative episodes?

HENRY: What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing? Don't! Don’t! Aarrgh!

CABAL DOCTOR: Sh, sh. We simply want to help you get better.

HENRY: I'm not sick! This is not a condition!

CABAL DOCTOR: You are a Class Nine, Hyper-Accelerated Protean life form; fairly rare. As is the control you seem to possess over mutative stress triggers.

HENRY: Please, you do not want to make that happen.

CABAL DOCTOR: (CHUCKLES) On the contrary, we very much do, although I can understand why you would resist.

HENRY: (GROANS) I am not ashamed of who I am.

CABAL DOCTOR: I certainly hope not because we intend to bring out your alter ego permanently. The knowledge we gain will be invaluable. You kind have been hiding in the shadows for far too long, Mr. Foss. We're going to bring you out into the light.

'''EXT. - SITE OF CITY OF BHALASAAM - DAY'''

[Magnus, Clara, Will, and Watson are looking around. Druitt teleports in.]

MAGNUS: Anything?

DRUITT: Nothing for miles. No other entrances to the mountain.

MAGNUS: It'll be dark soon. We should head back and start fresh tomorrow.

WATSON: No, no, no, you go.

WILL: Yeah, I'm staying too.

WATSON: Something has to set a sense of...

WILL: ...Scale. Yeah, exactly.

[Will and Watson are studying the site. Will is comparing the drawing of the city with the area around him.]

WILL: There.

MAGNUS: What?

WILL: Well, I know it's from a distance but the location of this central ziggurat should be that area there.

[Will gets up form the rock he was seated on and shows it to Watson and points to the area he is referring to.]

WATSON: Assuming the city was built around it, absolutely.

WILL: So the hall of records is located...

WATSON: ...Twenty-seven meters southeast of our current position. This is the main thoroughfare, the central meeting hall, that's the wall defenses and the hall of records. Ach! It took me a while to locate the right markers.

WILL: Wow, you totally got that. You saw everything.

WATSON: Oh very clearly Will, very clearly.

DRUITT: Well, then. Let's have at it.

[They start to move off in the direct Will and Watson indicated.]

WILL: Time, you factored in time, shifting architectural patterns as the city grew.

WATSON: Time is a constant, Will. All visual clues have to be measured against multiple parameters, time often being the most telling.

WILL: Like another dimension.

WATSON: Yeah, it's just one of many and once you understand the way they interact, you will find very few mysteries will confound you.

WILL: Man that is killer stuff.

WATSON: Yes, I've always thought so.

'''EXT. - FORMER SITE OF HALL OF RECORDS'''

[Druitt and Will are removing a pile of rocks blocking the entrance.]

MAGNUS: Are you certain?

WILL: Yeah, should be the main foyer for the hall for records.

MAGNUS: My father's instructions mentioned a passageway leading to subterranean caverns below.

DRUITT: We have no idea what the original interior of this building looked like, let alone where an access point may be.

[Druitt pushes in on the rocks and they give way to create a small entrance. Magnus retrieves a flashlight from her pack and moves forward to look into the hole.]

MAGNUS: Well done.

WILL: I'm seriously geeking out right now.

WATSON: As am I.

'''INT. - HALL OF RECORDS '''

[The team has entered the hall of records and found the stairs leading down to the caverns.]

WILL: Why would the vampires build a cavern beneath a hidden city? Seems kind of redundant, don't you think?

MAGNUS: Well even though they were the rulers, the overlords? They advanced civilization by centuries. Their knowledge, their technology, was far more advanced than anyone could've imagined back then.

DRUITT: So they kept their secrets well hidden.

WATSON: Well, they knew the world would turn against them, John. (COUGHS) They would have calculated for the possibility that Bhalasaam might one day be found and pillaged.

TESLA: ...Lest their wealth of knowledge fall into the wrong hands.

[Tesla steps out from a doorway.]

TESLA: Miss me?

Act II
[Druitt starts to advance on Tesla.]

MAGNUS: John!

[Druitt stops as Watson restrains him by his shoulder. Druitt glares at Tesla.]

DRUITT: Oh, I know he's difficult to kill but I'm sure there are ways.

TESLA: Is that before or after you retrieve the blood? Because, frankly, good luck with that if I'm dead. You know, you can't do it without me. Nice move last time we met, Johnny.

[Tesla cracks his neck.]

TESLA: Mm...took me a while to get over it.

DRUITT: Not long enough, old boy. Care for another helping?

MAGNUS: What are you doing here, Nikola?

[Tesla sighs]

TESLA: Isn't it obvious? The Cabal want to turn the world into a war zone, only the ancient blood can stop it. Yes, I do keep abreast of current events thank you.

WATSON: Yet you didn't answer our communiqués.

TESLA: My dear James, you're looking older. Feeling your age?

WATSON: Ever the gentleman, I see.

TESLA: And what have we here?

[Tesla looks at Will and Clara.]

TESLA: I’m guessing that one of you must be a blood relative of Nigel Griffin otherwise why would you even be brought along. I hope you're up to the task.

CLARA: Damn straight I am, skinny.

TESLA: You, I like. You, I don't know.

WILL: I'm Dr. Zimmerman, I work with Dr. Magnus.

TESLA: Protégé, well the mission's necessary disposable item.

MAGNUS: Stop this, Nikola. You know what we're facing, why not make contact?

TESLA: Firstly, I prefer to work alone. Secondly, I don't trust any of you any more than you trust me. That’s why I skipped the orientation.

WATSON: How did you get down here?

TESLA: There's another entrance far side of the mountain; just have to know where to look for it, which I do. Now, follow me.

[Tesla leads them down the cavern.]

TESLA: Ah! Magnificent, isn't it? All that remains of my ancestors, their work. Ten thousand years of knowledge and power hidden from the world.

MAGNUS: You've been coming here for decades, haven't you? This is where you got the idea to revive vampires as a race.

[Tesla stops and turns to face them.]

TESLA: Your father, he did his job well. Despite my best efforts, we can only retrieve the blood as one. None of us can do it alone.

DRUITT: Tell me, Nikola, if we do succeed, will you allow us to take it away? We know you have wonderful designs for it, an army of newborn vampires being just the start.

TESLA: I may want to see my ancestors reborn but that can't happen if the abnormals become a global threat to humans. None of us could withstand the chaos that that would bring. OK? But tell me, John, are the rest of us to trust you once all is said and done? You, who once put your own daughter in harm's way for just a drop of Helen's blood. Oh, yes having that vial all to your self would solve your health problems for a long time, wouldn't it?

MAGNUS: Gentlemen, we are here for a reason. Nikola, lives are at stake.

TESLA: This way.

WATSON: John.

[Watson holds out his arm asking for assistance from Druitt. Druitt walks over to Watson and permits him to use his shoulder.]

WATSON: Thank you.

CLARA: What the hell was that all about?

WILL: Well, the guy who invented radio just dissed Jack the Ripper.

'''INT. - CABAL BUILDING'''

ASHLEY: What are you doing, Dana? You haven't asked me one real question yet.

[One of the cabal men has brought Dana an energy drink.]

DANA: We have a lot more to discuss, so, please.

[Dana throws the can to Ashley who eyes it suspiciously.]

DANA: Ashley if I wanted you dead there'd be more effective ways than a poisoned drink.

ASHLEY: I want to see Henry, now!

DANA: I assure you he's fine.

[Dana walks to a monitor and turns it on. The monitor is showing Henry strapped to the chair unconscious.]

DANA: Satisfied?

[Ashley opens the can and takes a drink.]

DANA: Thank you. I'd like to keep you alert and co-operative.

ASHLEY: Well, one out of two ain't bad. If you put a truth serum in this, trust me I will do a tap routine on this floor rather than tell you anything.

DANA: To tell you the truth, I'm a terrible poker player. I never bluff. As for what we want, information's not the only thing. Not when you have so much more to offer us.

'''INT. - CABAL BUILDING'''

[Henry is screaming in pain. He begins to transform into the werewolf but he doesn’t completely transform.]

HENRY: It won't work.

CABAL DOCTOR: You've been off your medication for almost a day. The safeguards have left your system. The pain will end when you stop resisting the change to your natural state.

HENRY: No. If I change you'll kill me.

CABAL DOCTOR: True. But we'll have learned so much in the process. Henry, this will be a noble end for you. Think of it as an organ donation after your death. What we learn from your alter ego may eventually save lives. Another 10cc.

HENRY: No, no, don't. No!

'''INT. - CAVERNS BENEATH THE CITY OF BHALASAAM '''

CLARA: This place goes on forever.

MAGNUS: It's a labyrinth. It's designed to keep valuable secrets from those who would steal them.

TESLA: Was that aimed at me?

MAGNUS: Yes.

[They have come to a room with a pedestal in the center of the room. There is a star pentagon and roman numerals on the pedestal.]

WILL: Some sort of a numeric code?

MAGNUS: My mother's birthday.

[Magnus enters the numbers.]

MAGNUS: My father's favorite password.

[The center of the pedestal rises up and a scroll is inside. Magnus takes the scroll and opens it.]

MAGNUS: It's his handwriting.

WILL: Latin?

MAGNUS: His favorite language.

WATSON: It’s a caveat addressed to all five of us. It’s a warning; the blood should only be sought by all of us or not at all.

MAGNUS: ...And only for altruistic reasons.

TESLA: Well, saving civilization from chaos and war seems worthy but he's your father.

MAGNUS: It's a map of the labyrinth.

WILL: Look, there's five notations here.

WATSON: Five tests, each has one of our names beside it.

CLARA: What kind of tests?

TESLA: They designed specifically for each of our gifts, impenetrable to anyone else.

MAGNUS: My father knew that in order to prevent anyone of us from trying to access the blood alone, he had to use the technology the vampires left behind to safeguard their secrets.

WILL: And even you couldn’t find a way around it.

TESLA: I know, nervous yet?

WATSON: At the end of each test there's a key. Once we have the five keys...

MAGNUS: We can access the vial. My father loved the metaphor of keys he saw them as symbols for the unlocking of secrets.

DRUITT: We can assume none of these tasks will be simple and easy.

MAGNUS: Knowing my father, absolutely. May I?

WATSON: Oh, yes.

MAGNUS: Will, take Clara to Griffin's test, that's here.

[Magnus points to a passageway.]

MAGNUS: Watson, yours and John's markers are close together. I know, work as a team. We'll meet back here with our keys.

DRUITT: That leaves you and Nikola; your tests are marked for the same area?

TESLA: I guess your father liked us best as a couple.

DRUITT: Helen, if you can wait I’ll...

MAGNUS: I'll be fine.

TESLA: Such chivalry.

DRUITT: If any harm comes to her, accidental or otherwise...

TESLA: I have no reason to do her any harm but you; I'm finding more reasons by the minute.

MAGNUS: Honestly! I'm surrounded by adolescents!

[Druitt and Tesla glare at each other but then Tesla moves off.]

WILL: Let's go.

[Each pair moves down their passageway.]

WATSON: It seems we go down this way.

[Will and Clara come to a room with sunlight streaming down to the floor.]

WILL: This room was marked Griffin.

CLARA: It doesn't seem so bad. Whoa!

[As Clara steps out into the sunlight, she casts a shadow onto the floor. The room shakes and part of the floor falls away. Will pulls Clara back. The shaking stops.]

CLARA: OK, this is bad.

Act III
'''INT. - CAVERNS - DRUITT AND WATSON’S PASSAGEWAY'''

DRUITT: Now, I believe this is our stop.

[They come to a junction with two doors with writing above them.]

WATSON: Two Latin inscriptions almost identical in meaning.

DRUITT: Almost.

WATSON: True lies, lies truth; a slightly different turn of phrase.

[Druitt tries to lift the heavy doors.]

DRUITT: Both doors have apparently no means of opening them and yet behind each of these doors lies our keys. Logically...

WATSON: Logically, both our names were set for these doors, which implies that Gregory intended for us to work together.

DRUITT: Mm. So we cannot retrieve one without the other.

WATSON: Hmm, putting the analytical genius and the cold-blooded killer in the same place; there must be a reason beyond cruel irony.

DRUITT: When he designed this he knew us as friends, James, not as enemies. It was before I...

WATSON: Indeed, yes, yes.

DRUITT: Doors that won't open yet their shape suggests something exists beyond; a chamber, perhaps.

DRUITT: Which I alone could access, but which door do we believe? Hmm...perhaps both, neither?

WATSON: I don't know but I'm convinced of one thing. If we choose wrongly and you teleport behind the wrong door, I'm sure you will find solid rock.

DRUITT: Well then, you'd best choose carefully...old friend.

'''INT. - PASSAGE - GRIFFIN’S ROOM'''

[Kneeling down, Will puts his hand out blocking the sun and casting a shadow on the floor. The room shakes so he pulls it back.]

CLARA: This is insane.

WILL: No, no, it makes sense. Whenever light reflects off anything visible we lose ground.

CLARA: Yeah, literally.

WILL: OK. So all you have to do is make it from here to there without casting a shadow and we’ll get the key. You can do this.

CLARA: No, I can't.

WILL: Clara, this is adrenaline triggering anxiety in your brain. You’ve got to take the focus off yourself; forget about everything else except for the goal.

CLARA: Yeah? How?

WILL: Well how did you focus when you used to steal?

CLARA: I'd, ah, picture the store clerk naked. It helped me not feel so...

WILL: ...Vulnerable. Perfect. So just picture me naked.

CLARA: It's not working.

WILL: Clara you've done this a thousand times.

CLARA: We're in a labyrinth, Will, in the Himalayas. I am going to die here.

WILL: OK, look at me. What can I do to help?

CLARA: Well, if I have to do it, so should you.

[Clara starts to undress.]

WILL: What? But people can see me. You can see me, that's not fair. I shouldn't have to...

[Will begins to undress.]

WILL: OK, fine. This is ridiculous.

[Will has stripped down to his boxers.]

WILL: Satisfied?

[He turns around and doesn’t see Clara.]

WILL: Clara?

CLARA: Don't drop my clothes.

[Clara hands Will a pile of clothes. Will drops her bra.]

WILL: Sorry.

'''INT. - CAVERNS - TESLA ROOM'''

[Tesla comes to a long corridor with a pedestal at the end of it.]

MAGNUS: Ah, your test.

TESLA: Yeah.

MAGNUS: You tried to steal the blood once before; that means you've done the test.

TESLA: No, I tried to steal it. I never succeeded in getting the key.

MAGNUS: You're afraid.

TESLA: Your father managed to rig this tunnel here with a massive geomagnetic current, voltage derived directly from the Earth. Do you have any idea who much electricity that is?

MAGNUS: He knew you were hard to kill.

TESLA: Well, this might just do it.

[Tesla takes a few steps back and then quickly walks forward into the tunnel. Tesla struggles to the end of the corridor against the electricity.]

'''INT. - CABAL BUILDING'''

[Henry is now in a cell with no windows except in a door. He starts to transform into the werewolf and lunges at the door forcing it open.]

HENRY: Awesome.

'''INT. - CAVERNS - TESLA ROOM'''

[Tesla collapses to his knees and removes the key from the pedestal. He starts to walk back and is met with the electricity again.]

TESLA: Your father really didn't like me, did he?

MAGNUS: You're an acquired taste.

TESLA: Uh-huh.

[Tesla walks into the corridor.]

'''INT. - CAVERNS - OUTSIDE DRUITT AND WATSON’S ROOM'''

WATSON: The seventh girl you murdered, April 1888. They found her body under a bridge near Wapping. Why move her from Whitechapel? It's tormented me. But why taint your calling card? Why change the rules? I remember, I asked your opinion at the time over brandies at the Reform Club and you said, "Perhaps the old boy's losing his taste for the sport." But were you?

DRUITT: My actions were not of my own; but thrust upon me...by an irresistible force. Oh, it must've been quite the blow to your ego when you finally learnt the truth.

WATSON: Just that I that I failed to see the clues laid out before me. It was that it was you, John. For God's sake; it was you!

[Watson turns suddenly and points one of the doors.]

WATSON: Veritas iacet. Truth lies.

[Watson turns to the other door.]

WATSON: Latet veritas. Lies truth. Now, the subtle but vital difference is that this epigram translates as "lies buried", as in dead, whereas this, this means "lies at rest", a much more benign expression and thus it follows that we must choose between life and death.

DRUITT: That's it? That's your unassailable logic?

WATSON: Gregory and I shared a passion for Latin. It follows that he would hide the clues in the subtleties of the language.

DRUITT: So...either a chamber lies beyond that or a perfect chance for you to exact your revenge for my past actions.

[Druitt grabs Watson by the front of his jacket.]

DRUITT: Care to reconsider your choice?

[Watson stares defiantly at Druitt. Druitt teleports into the room; and then releases Watson to retrieve a key from a pedestal.]

WATSON: The second key is undoubtedly within the second door or indeed this key may unlock it outright, in which case you might leave me here to die.

DRUITT: Yes, I might.

[Druitt walks behind Watson.]

WATSON: Well, why don't you?

DRUITT: As I once said, I have lost the taste for the sport.

[Druitt places his hand on Watson’s shoulder and teleports. Once back on the outside of the two doors, the other door opens to reveal a key.]

WATSON: Release the first key, the second is freed as well.

DRUITT: Elementary, my dear Watson.

WATSON: Oh, shut up!

'''INT. - CABAL BUILDING'''

DANA: There should be adequate cellular penetration by now.

ASHLEY: What the hell is that supposed to mean?

[Dana nods to a man in the room.]

DANA: You may begin. Cut the power.

[Ashley begins to feel dizzy.]

ASHLEY: I thought you didn't bluff, Dana.

DANA: It has been an absolute pleasure talking with you. I wish we had more time but it's time to say goodbye.

ASHLEY: What did you do to me?

DANA: What we had to. Turns out it actually was as simple as quenching your thirst. And I'm afraid I did lie to you. You're going to die today, Ashley.

Act IV
'''INT. - CAVERNS - TESLA ROOM'''

[Tesla struggles to where Magnus is waiting.]

TESLA: Mmmmm.

[Tesla sighs in relief as Magnus watches him.]

TESLA: You felt genuine concern for me. Admit it.

MAGNUS: Nonsense.

TESLA: Oh. You still like me, it's so obvious.

MAGNUS: You tried to kill me.

TESLA: Yeah, but, you know, we all hurt the ones we love. Your turn.

'''INT. - CAVERNS - GRIFFIN’S ROOM'''

WILL: Clara, don't stop.

CLARA: I can't do this, Will.

WILL: You're almost there.

CLARA: This is crazy. I can't do this.

WILL: Focus on the goal. Don't think about anything else. It's just a key. You're doing great.

'''INT. - CAVERNS - OUTSIDE MAGNUS’S ROOM'''

[Magnus walks up to a spyglass looking object and pushes some controls. The spyglass extends and Magnus looks into it. The door to the room opens.]

MAGNUS: Not much of a test.

[Magnus enters the room.]

TESLA: You're a total daddy's girl.

[The door closes in front of Tesla.]

TESLA: Helen!

MAGNUS: All right, Father.

[Magnus walks up to the pedestal and looks upon symbols around the outside and sand in the middle.]

MAGNUS: Two by two. All right.

[Magnus begins to write in the sand but the room shakes and rocks start to fall.]

'''INT. - CAVERNS - GRIFFIN’S ROOM'''

WILL: Keep going! You're doing fine.

CLARA: I've got it!

WILL: OK, come on. We don't have a lot of time. Bring it back.

'''INT. - CAVERNS - OUTSIDE MAGNUS’S ROOM'''

MAGNUS: Two times two, two plus two, two to the power of two and therefore four. That is too easy.

INT CAVERNS - GRIFFIN’S ROOM 

CLARA: Will! I can't make it across.

[A large section of the floor has fallen as Clara was unable to keep her whole body invisible. We see her crouched on the collapsing ground.]

WILL: You've gotta jump. Just don't think about it. Jump!

[Clara has stopped in fright.]

WILL: Clara! Come on! Come on! Where are you?

[Will gets yanked out of the room.]

CLARA: Will come on!

'''INT. - CAVERNS - OUTSIDE MAGNUS’S ROOM '''

MAGNUS: Two by two, two by two; it's not an equation, it's a reference. Noah's Ark right? Your favorite metaphor for your work.

MAGNUS: Right, so what’s the permutations of abnormal life? They're endless; therefore it's infinity, right.

MAGNUS: Infinity.

[Magnus draws the symbol for infinity into the sand. A key appears.]

MAGNUS: Thank you.

[The door opens.]

TESLA: Nice but I think somebody must've screwed up.

[Tesla and Magnus run back toward the main room. Rocks fall from the roof hitting Magnus.]

MAGNUS: Ah! Bloody hell.

'''INT. - CAVERNS - DRUITT AND WATSON’S PASSAGEWAY'''

[Watson is having trouble keeping up to Druitt. Rocks are falling all over the caverns.]

DRUITT: Move your legs, old man.

[Druitt grabs Watson and teleports to the main room just as Will enters in his boxers.]

WILL: Clara! Oh, no, she was right with me.

CLARA: Relax, Will, I'm right here. I asked you not to drop my clothes and look - they're filthy. Nice job, Will.

[Watson and Druitt look on amused.]

DRUITT: Interesting.

WATSON: Oh, well done, William.

WILL: Thanks.

DRUITT: Where's Helen?

[Magnus and Tesla enter the room. Magnus looks puzzled over at Will who raises his arms in a I-don’t-know-look. Magnus holds up her key and the other hold up theirs.]

MAGNUS: Well done. Shall we?

[They move to the pedestal and place their keys in the appropriate places.]

WATSON: Where is it?

[A section of the wall opens and a container is inside.]

DRUITT: Finally.

[Magnus retrieves the blood.]

MAGNUS: I haven't seen this in a while.

CLARA: Is that it? That's the blood?

TESLA: The power in that vial...it could change history and create any kind of future we choose.

DRUITT: We?

TESLA: Don't worry. I'll see this through; antivirus and all.

WATSON: Oh!

[Watson collapses to the floor. His machine has stop and he ages rapidly.]

WILL: Watson!

WATSON: Oh. Oh.

[Magnus rushes over to Watson with the others right behind her.]

MAGNUS: Oh, my God. What happened?

WATSON: Oh, the inevitable, I'm afraid.

MAGNUS: The suit, it's stopped working.

WATSON: It's been failing for some time. It hasn't really worked since we left the Sanctuary. I knew that this was a mission I would not return from. It was worth one last challenge, Helen. Oh!

[Watson grimaces in pain. He points at Magnus.]

WATSON: You, I shall miss.

[Magnus is crying and she tries to comfort Watson.]

WATSON: William, William...there... There is something that we are not seeing. This was too easy. There is something else happening, something going on that we're not seeing. You must find the missing piece.

WILL: What? What is it? What's the missing piece?

WATSON: Find it.

[As Watson passes away; the others are saddened.]

'''INT. - CABAL BUILDING'''

[Ashley awakes while she is being wheeled down a hallway on a gurney. She looks up to see a man with a surgical mask and hat on.]

ASHLEY: Ohhh.

[Ashley tries to sit up but the man pushes her down.]

HENRY: Stay down!

[Henry lowers the mask.]

HENRY: Hey hi, it's me. It's Henry. We're almost there. Listen, are you okay? You were out cold when I found you.

[They have reached the end of the hallway and Ashley sits up and stands up.]

ASHLEY: I need a gun.

HENRY: Here.

ASHLEY: Cell phone, awesome.

HENRY: Yeah.

[Henry has given Ashley a gun and her cell phone then he opens a door.]

HENRY: This way.

ASHLEY: What happened to you?

HENRY: I don't want to talk about it. You?

ASHLEY: Me neither. What about the codes for Lazarus?

HENRY: I'm on it. I found a network interface in this lab here.

ASHLEY: Rock star.

[Henry and Ashley enter the lab. Henry goes to a computer.]

ASHLEY: Anything?

HENRY: There's a whole encryption package. Looks like a lot of code. They must control the dispersal of units remotely. I'm gonna download the whole file to a jump drive.

ASHLEY: How long?

[Ashley dials her cell phone.]

HENRY: Just need a couple more seconds.

MAGNUS: [on phone]Ashley.

ASHLEY: Mom, we're ready for blast off. Trace the cell signal.

MAGNUS: [on phone] Good, stand by.

HENRY: Come on, come on, come on, okay, I got it.

ASHLEY: Easy peasy, let’s roll.

[Henry and Ashley start to run to the door when armed men come in.]

Act V
HENRY: This is so not good, Ash.

ASHLEY: Just give them a few more seconds.

[Druitt appears and teleports all of them back to the lab in the Sanctuary.]

'''INT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - LOWER LEVEL - LAB'''

MAGNUS: Ashley!

[Magnus rushes over to hug her daughter.]

ASHLEY: Hey.

DRUITT: That was good timing.

ASHLEY: Thank you.

[Ashley starts to stumble.]

ASHLEY: Crap.

MAGNUS: Ashley.

[Ashley passes out; Druitt catches her.]

MAGNUS: Get her to the infirmary.

[Druitt teleports out with Ashley.]

MAGNUS: What the hell happened to her?

HENRY: I don't know. We were separated a long time.

'''EXT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - ROOF - NIGHT'''

[Will is standing looking out at the view. Clara comes up to the roof.]

CLARA: So you're supposed to say, "Hey, Clara, you did great. Way to conquer your fears."

WILL: I'm sorry, I'm just...thinking about stuff. You did do great.

CLARA: Thanks for taking off your pants.

WILL: You never have to thank me for that.

CLARA: Wow. I can't believe this place. I...I thought I was a one-off, a freak.

WILL: Clara, why don't you stay here? Just for a while, just to see what it's like to be part of something?

CLARA: Yeah, I... I don't know. Being connected to places and people, it's not really my style.

WILL: Well, that's because neither was accepting of who you are. I think that's going to change.

[Clara steps up to Will and kisses him.]

CLARA: I had to do that. The view is just way too romantic.

WILL: Yeah, I know what you mean.

'''INT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - LOWER LEVEL - INFIRMARY'''

[Magnus is checking on Ashley when the door opens and Druitt steps in.]

DRUITT: How is she?

MAGNUS: She's unconscious. Something is wrong her blood pressure's elevated, I need to run more tests.

DRUITT: They've done something to her.

MAGNUS: She'll be all right, John. She's strong.

DRUITT: I'd like to stay close, if you don't mind.

MAGNUS: Of course.

[Druitt starts to leave.]

MAGNUS: John...thank you.

[Druitt leaves and Magnus closes the door as she leaves. Ashley awakens.]

'''EXT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - ROOF - NIGHT'''

CLARA: What is it, Will?'

WILL: Something Watson said before he died, about it all being too easy, that we'd missed something.

CLARA: We got the blood. Seems like a win to me.

WILL: Yeah but I can't just shake the feeling that he's right, that there's something else going on that we just can't see.

[Will realizes something.]

WILL: I have to talk to Magnus.

'''INT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - LOWER LEVEL - LAB'''

[Magnus and Tesla are working on the source blood. An orange flash draws Magnus’s attention. The source blood is gone.]

MAGNUS: Nikola!

'''INT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - HENRY'S ARRAY'''

[Henry is working on the computer. He opens the file from the Cabal.]

HENRY: What the...?

[Ghost like apparitions appears on the monitor.]

HENRY: Oh, no.

'''INT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - LOWER LEVEL - LAB'''

HENRY: [on monitor] Doc, the drive we brought back it's all ghost data. There's no codes, no input, nothing we can use. Doc?

[Magnus rushes out of room.]

'''INT. - OLD CITY SANCTUARY - UPPER LEVEL - MAGNUS'S STUDY'''

[She enters her study holding a gun on Druitt who is seated in a chair.]

MAGNUS: Isn't this just like you? Steal what we need the most then stick around to gloat.

DRUITT: I have been here the whole time.

[Druitt stands and stares at Magnus. Magnus lowers the gun as she has an awful thought.]

MAGNUS: Ashley.

[Magnus goes to the computer and calls up the security camera on the medical room. Ashley’s bed is empty.]

WILL: Magnus! Magnus!

[Will and Clara rush into the room.]

WILL: The whole thing was a set-up. Something else is going on.

MAGNUS: We're too late.

'''EXT. - EASTER ISLAND - NIGHT'''

[Dana walks out from behind a rock and joins Ashley. Ashley hands her the source blood.]

DANA: Thank you, Ashley. You've been everything we could've hoped for. Welcome to your rebirth.
