(LUGER READlNG)

(THUNDER RUMBLlNG)

(RAlN FALLlNG)

l think l'm being followed.

BLACK: Then we have little time.

He has discovered the map.

How?

lf he has the map, it's only a matter of time
before he discovers the location of the box.

What of the four bodies
left behind in the caves?

(BREATHlNG HEAVlLY)

He killed his own men.

(HlSSlNG)

BLACK: Luger plays the game
at an altogether different level,

one almost admires him.

There is one more thing.

Charity.

So where's the amulet now?

(PANTlNG)

CHARLES: There are those
who would describe the removal

of the Roman marbles
as vandalism and looting.

l perhaps would agree with them.

But in these times of greed and avarice,

the removal of the marbles by Lord Bevan

may actually have saved them
from an even worse fate.

Even during the Greek war of independence,

the besieged Ottoman forces

were attempting to melt
the lead in the columns of the Parthenon...

(WHlSPERS) This is so boring.

...to cast bullets.

But at the London Museum,

we cannot dismiss the importance of these
treasures to the Greeks.

Who, even during this time of war,

actually gave the enemy bullets
to save their great temple.

A sacrifice that put the stones of history

above the lives of their own men.

(DOOR SLAMS)

MARlAH: Felix!

Come on, Felix. Father will be annoyed.

lmpressive, isn't it?

-MARlAH: Looks just like a stone to me.
-(SlGHS)

(CHUCKLlNG) Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No, this is a key

to unlocking an entire civilisation, Mariah.

You know me, sir?

Call me Will.

You see, because the text was written in
both Greek and Egyptian hieroglyphics,

we were able to translate things
we never could before.

Never underestimate
the power of buried treasure, my friend.

-You're bleeding, sir.
-Hmm?

Oh...

Looks that way, doesn't it?

Be a good man.

Get your parents for me.

l have something

rather important to tell them.

FELlX: Spectacular!

Oh, you're in so much trouble.

Mama, Mariah killed someone.

-On here.
-Steady there, man!

Will, Will?

Will. Will, what happened?

He's found it. He's found the map.

lt's only a matter of time
before he finds the box.

Are you sure it's the box?

You think l got this from playing checkers?

(CHARlTY GROANS)

l see you've been up to
your usual antics, Charity.

Will, this is far too dangerous and reckless.

CHARlTY: l'm sorry,
l like to catch the bad guys instead of

sitting around a museum, gathering dust.

Do you ever think you should
have married me instead, Catherine?

Catherine, you've let the boys in.

Mariah, Felix, let's get you back to the hotel.

(SlGHS)

(WHlSPERlNG)
There's something else, Catherine.

(BREATHlNG HEAVlLY) You're not safe.

l've been followed here.

These are two halves
that together make a whole.

Guard them with your life.

Do not let them get into the wrong hands.

Hmm?

FELlX: Who was that man?

Just an old friend who needs our help.

Does he work for you?

ln a way, we work together.

Mariah, there's a waiting carriage outside.
Take your brother straight to the hotel.

-But, sir...
-Not now!

You're in charge.
Take care of Felix. Understood?

Always remember.

Faithfulness will be your shield
as a thousand may fall and hide.

But no evil may ever come near you
with gold at your side.

Trust no one. Except each other.

l love you.

CHARLES: Where's Will?

Oh, he just got up and left.

Sir, thank you so much.

Ah! My pleasure.

Hello, Mr and Mrs Mundi.

What's the meaning of this?

(GROANS)

Felix?

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

(GRUNTS)

Put this on. lt's chilly.

(SlGHS)

What's wrong?

l've been thinking.

About the man at the museum?

Yes. And our parents.

What of them?

Well...

What do they do?

They're professors at Oxford. You know that.

Yes, but...

Are they though?

(FELlX GASPS)

Shh...

Follow me.

Who are they?

l don't know. Just climb down.

FELlX: What's happening?

MARlAH: Hold on tight. We have to go.

(CLATTERlNG)

That's it, Felix. Keep going.

(CLANKlNG)

-(RATTLlNG)
-BOTH: Ahhh!

(MARlAH PANTlNG)

-Felix? Felix!
-(PANTlNG)

-Just hold on.
-(GROANlNG)

Look at me.

-lt'll be fine.
-(CLANKlNG)

FELlX: No!

(MARlAH SCREAMlNG)

(GASPS)

(WHlSTLES)

-Did we really just do that?
-(EXHALES)

Let's go.

How about we get you cleaned up, shall we?

Give me your handkerchief.

Mariah, look.

Where did you get that?

l don't know. lt wasn't in my coat before...

Before the museum?

CATHERlNE: Always remember.

Faithfulness will be your shield
as a thousand may fall and hide.

But no evil may ever come near you
with gold at your side.

Mother.

But what does it mean?

l don't know.

What about Mother and Father?

Do you think she knew
something was gonna happen?

l'm sure they're fine.

l'm scared.

l'm not going to leave you.

Try and get some sleep.

(TRAlN WHlSTLE BLOWlNG)

This steak is quite delicious.

lt's a little rare, but then
a bit of blood does liven up the palate.

Don't you think?

l'm so glad
we could have this little chat alone.

Your husband's been quite unhelpful,
l must say.

Further to the point.

Where is the amulet?

l'm going to ask you one last time.

(SPlTS)

Oh...

Charming.

l never really wanted children.
l couldn't quite see the appeal.

Still, l'm sure they mean a lot to you.

What parent doesn't cherish their children?

Mr Grimm, Mr Grendel!

We really must find her boys.
We're all just worried sick.

lt's just a little hard when you don't know
exactly what they look like, sir.

(DlSH CLATTERS)

Get off at the next stop.
Search every boarding house,

work house, reformatory, everywhere.
Just find them.

Please, sir. We need help.

Try the work house down the road.

-But...
-Keep moving.

-But, sir...
-l said, keep moving!

Mariah, l'm starving.

Wait here.

Here we go, chicken and sprouts.
Uh, we've got pork pies.

Please, sir. Could you spare a copper?
A penny or two?

Anything would do. Much obliged.

Here.

Thief!

What did you do?

PlE MAKER: Officer!

Where do you think you're going then, eh?

Well, look what we have here, now.

Some dirty new guests.

GUARD 1 : Welcome to Gateshead Manor.
Come on!

GUARD 2: Line up!

Get up! Get a move on!

GUARD 1 : Stand up straight!

For your crimes, you will serve the time.

But, first,

we have some visitors
that would like to make your acquaintance.

Mariah, they found us.

l can see that, Felix.

Oi, oi.

Sounds like a couple of toffs
took a wrong turn.

Do l know you?
What have you been up to, eh?

What are you going to do?

(MlMlCKlNG) What are we going to do?

We're not even supposed to be here.

Oh, is that right?

(MAN TALKS lNDlSTlNCTLY)

Look, everybody.

Lord Muck and his little brother
have come to tea.

One lump or two, Your Lordship?

Get off him.

You're pulling my leg, aren't you?

Let's see what you're made of, shall we?

(GROANS)

You glocky sod!

(ALL SHOUTlNG)

-(ALARM BELL RlNGlNG lN DlSTANCE)
-MARlAH: Felix, come on!

Shut the gate!

Found ya!

-(HORSES NElGHlNG)
-(PEOPLE SHOUTlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY)

We've been looking everywhere for you.

That's funny.

So have l.

(GROANlNG)

You've knocked my bleeding tooth out.

Looks like you're in a spot of trouble.
l feel it only fair to warn you.

l have studied
over five separate forms of martial art.

Well, study this.

Now that's not very gentlemanly of you.

-Doesn't l look like a gentleman?
-(CHUCKLES)

-(GROANlNG)
-(GRUNTlNG)

-To the scaffold.
-(GROANS)

FELlX: Mariah!

Get off me! Let me go.

-(GUNSHOT)
-(HORSE NElGHlNG lN THE DlSTANCE)

(GROANS)

-Mariah!
-Felix!

-Come on, boy.
-Felix!

Toodle-oo, old chap.

(SCREAMlNG)

(GROANS)

(GUNSHOTS)

-We really have to leave.
-MARlAH: Felix!

(SHOUTlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY)

Mariah!

Mariah! Mariah! Mariah!

Jump!

(HORSES NElGHlNG)

-Mariah!
-Felix!

-No!
-No, Mariah!

-Mariah!
-No, Mariah! No!

-Mariah!
-Get off me! Felix!

No! No, Felix!

-No, Mariah, no!
-Get off me!

(CRYlNG) Please!

Mariah! Mariah!

(BOTH PANTlNG)

(GROANS)

Who are you?

Captain Will Charity.

l fought with your father
in the Abyssinian War.

You can trust me, Mariah.

Last call! All aboard!

(BLOWlNG WHlSTLE)

CHARlTY: The man behind
the disappearance of your parents and Felix

is someone called Otto Luger.

Luger has made it his life's mission

to acquire some of the most powerful
and dangerous artefacts in the world.

-What are you? Spies?
-ln a way.

Your parents and l work for
a secret department of the government

called the Bureau ofAntiquities.

We stop the plundering and theft

of powerful historic relics
from around the world.

lf we are to find your brother, Mariah,
you must trust me.

My father says that trust is earned, sir.

Consider what l am about to tell you
a down payment.

We believe that Luger has discovered
the hiding place of the Midas Box.

The Midas Box?

Records dating back nearly 3,000 years ago

describe a box that can turn
whatever you place inside to gold.

For one man to have such power
would be an incredibly dangerous thing.

He could virtually print money.

Gold, the very foundation of our banks,
would become worthless

and the world would collapse into chaos.

l believe there is a traitor inside the bureau
who has been feeding Luger information.

For this reason, we have to work in secret.

(TRAlN WHlSTLE BLOWlNG)

l've arranged for you to work as a
porter at the Prince Regent Hotel.

Luger bought himself the hotel.

You see, he would never
make himself so vulnerable

unless the box was in or around that hotel.

You're going to spy for me.

Spy?

-My priority, sir, is finding my family.
-And find them, you will.

Leave your parents to me.
l'll track them down.

You, my friend,
must focus on finding your brother.

Now, here's your ticket
and letters of introduction.

l'll meet you once l find your parents.

MAN: Excuse me.

(PEOPLE SHOUTlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY)

-Hey! Who are you?
-l ain't causing no trouble.

Hey! What?

MAN: Shall we, dear?

CHARITY: You must remember, Mariah,
Luger is a dangerous man.

Not everything will be as it seems.

The box has been hidden away for centuries,
lost in time, never meant to be discovered.

lf he thinks he has found its location,

then you are heading towards
truly treacherous waters, my friend.

(PEOPLE CHATTlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY)

MAN: lt's a boy.
WOMAN 1 : No.

WOMAN 2: lt's a boy.

MAN: Ladies and gentlemen,
the Prince Regent Hotel...

Excuse me, sir. l'll be working at the hotel.

lsn't everyone?

-Over there, sir.
-Thank you.

Very good morning.

(BELL DlNGlNG)

(MECHANlCAL WHlRRlNG)

Did you lose your parents, lad?

l have my letters of introduction.

-l'm here to work as a porter.
-Porter?

Servants' entrance is in the back.

(KEYS JANGLlNG)

Who is this?

l apologise, madame. New porter.

Snuck his way into the lobby.

Too bad.

Come with me.

As manager of this hotel,
l run a tight and efficient machine.

Number one rule,
staff should be invisible and silent.

And this is what we're famous for.
Our therapeutic baths.

Many of our guests travel from far and wide
to bathe in our healing waters.

People arrive in wheelchairs
and leave riding bicycles.

And they pay handsomely for it.

Kitchens.

Keep up.

Your quarters are up these stairs,
top of the building.

And this is where l leave you.

Uniform for the new porter.

Stand over there, please.

May l ask you, have you seen a boy?

-A boy?
-Yes.

-He's 1 0, goes by the name of Felix.
-Shh. Quiet.

l don't want no trouble.

Then you've seen him?

There aren't any boys
younger than you in this hotel.

Or this town.

-l'm not a boy.
-(SCOFFS)

Well, you're not a man, either.

All l can say is, do not walk
the grounds of this hotel at night.

Unless you want to be snatched.

Sacha.

Name's Sacha.

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

How are we doing?

The hotel's almost at capacity.

Good. The more money you make me,
the quicker l can find what l'm looking for.

You're late for inspection.

Hmm.

(GRUNTS QUlETLY)

Hmm...

New boy. Too big.

Oh, shame.

All right.

Get back to work.

BELLHOP: Good morning, ma'am.

Sorry, we're all full.

Best use the stairs.

(DOG WHlMPERS)

WOMAN: Oh! What have you done, puppy?

Oh...

There, there.

SACHA: l really... l didn't mean to.

MAN: Where have you been, girl? You're late!

l told ya l wanted you home before nightfall.

-l'm sorry, Father.
-Come on!

You want to be snatched by the beast
like all the other children, do ya?

Hurry up!

(BELL TOLLlNG lN THE DlSTANCE)

(WlND WHlSTLlNG)

SACHA'S FATHER: You do as you're told!
Get me that bottle!

(SACHA'S FATHER CONTlNUES
TALKlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY)

What's this rubbish, girl?

l told you, Father.
l don't feel comfortable stealing for you.

You prefer to serve me this tripe?

No, Father.

After all l've done for you, girl.

l'm sorry, Father.

Sorry, are you?
lf you're so sorry, then you can eat it!

Clean up that mess.

Who's out there?

What the hell's going on here?

Whose bike is this?

Father, come inside. You'll catch a chill.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(DOOR OPENS)

(WHlSPERlNG) What are you doing here, boy?

l'm sorry. Are you all right?

Why did you follow me here?

l need your help.

Why my help?

You know what goes on up there.

You must know about Otto Luger.

What quarrel would you have
with the likes of Mr Luger?

Two men work for him.

One short with a scar on his cheek,
and the other tall and thin.

Have you seen them?

They took my parents and my brother.

Look, l can't lose my job, see.

lt's all we have.

l don't think you understand.

The reason why Luger bought the hotel

is because of something called
the Midas Box.

lt's somewhere in or around
the Prince Regent Hotel.

l don't know what
it's got to do with my family,

but there must be a connection.

Some fanciful stories
you've been telling yourself.

Sounds like a lot of nonsense.

What if it's not?

A creation so powerful
that it can turn any object to gold.

SACHA'S FATHER: Where are you, girl?

lt's time you left. l'm sorry,
l can't help with whatever row you have.

Just...

Don't stray from the path.

(THUDDlNG lN DlSTANCE)

(METAL CLANKlNG)

(BREATHlNG HEAVlLY)

Faithfulness will be your shield
as a thousand may fall and hide.

But no evil may ever come near you
with gold at your side.

(TREES CRACKlNG)

(GROWLlNG)

Stop bringing that up, would ya?

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Take care!

Coming, start now. Let my friend here...

Finally, something we can work with.

The very best.

Brought in special from Switzerland.

We need to double the excavation efforts
and get that box

so we can get off this godforsaken island.

Excuse me, sir. l'm very sorry.

(lN RUSSlAN ACCENT)
Never be sorry, my boy.

lt will only force you into debt.

Well, we've arranged the best room for you.

On a clear day,
you can see the windmills of Holland.

Holland.

The land of tulips, clogs and cheese.

All things that terrify me.

Especially cheese.

The Great Bizmillah.

So glad you finally decided to show up.

We were expecting you, um...
Oh! (LAUGHlNG) A week ago.

l was delayed by the Emperor of China.

Well, your reputation certainly precedes you,

let us hope that
you're as good as they say you are.

And what do they say?

That few magicians are your better.

(CHUCKLES) As magicians go.

That depends on how well you pay, sir.

lf you give me a show l won't ever forget,
you will be amply rewarded.

That l can do.

l can't express what a challenge
it will be for you to amaze me.

l'm addicted to the magical arts.
lt's my religion.

Well, then, let us pray together.

Addictions can be a very corruptive path.

A man can lose his soul.

Or gain it. Depends on your point of view.

Hmm.

Mariah.

Where have you been, boy?
Bags! Bags! Bags!

l'll take that. Thank you.

Has anyone seen the new porter boy?

Mariah. Quickly, this way.

Sacha, are you all right?

Shh!

l knew if they saw you you'd be in great peril.

Then you believe me?

l believe that ever since
Mr Luger bought this hotel

there's been horrible
and strange happenings.

Does this mean you're going to help me?

SACHA: You see how the water
comes up from underground.

The stream had run dry many years ago,

until Mr Luger bought the hotel
and reopened the baths.

(MAN COUGHlNG)

WOMAN: Are you all right, sir?

He's been making a mint.
Charging folks a small fortune for the favour.

What's this?

Your Midas Box.

Where does the water come from?

(WHlRRlNG)

Mr Luger put this in
when he bought the hotel.

Top of the line. Very expensive.

lt runs the water and powers the elevator.

Pretty large engine.

What else does it power?
ls there a way down?

Through there. That's strictly forbidden.

Are you coming?

SACHA: What is this?

MARlAH: l think it's an old Roman bath.

SACHA: Look here.

lt's some kind of an inscription.

This says auri.

lt's Latin for gold.

So you can read Latin, Mariah Mundi?

l can do a lot more than just carry bags.

What else does it say?

"This is the place of the water of the Gods.

"Sacred spring of healing gold."

Alchemists through time believed that
gold could heal all kinds of ailments.

What if the underground stream
was running over the box somewhere?

-You said that the box turns...
-To gold. l know.

What if they're wrong
and the box doesn't turn things to gold?

lt does something far more powerful.

BOTH: lt heals people.

(DOOR OPENS)

(WHlSPERlNG) Quickly.

(KEYS JANGLlNG)

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHlNG)

(WOMAN SlGHS)

(FOOTSTEPS RECEDlNG)

SACHA: She's locked us in.

-How are we gonna get out of here?
-Shh!

Can you hear that?

(WAVES CRASHlNG)

SACHA: lt's the sea.

(BOTH SCREAMS)

Do you recognise him?

Recognise? What's left to recognise?

Looks like he was stabbed.

-(SCREAMS)
-(GASPS)

(CHUCKLES)

You fool!
Don't you think we've had enough scares?

"Charles Pinworth, Owner and Manager
of the Prince Regent Hotel."

l knew it.

When Luger bought the hotel

we were told that Mr Pinworth
went to Africa to retire.

But he left
without saying goodbye to anyone.

Some thought it was because he was too sad,

-but this means that he was...
-Murdered.

(SACHA GASPlNG)

This is horrible.

l can't breathe. l have to get out of here.

-Sacha, no!
-(BOTH SCREAMlNG)

(BOTH COUGHlNG)

SACHA: That's just great.
MARlAH: So, it's my fault, is it?

SACHA: l knew l shouldn't
have come with you.

MARlAH: You're the one who panicked!

SACHA: You're the one
digging into things you shouldn't be.

Bringing all kinds of pandemonium our way.

This is murder we're talking about, Sacha!

l know that.

And l want nothing to do with it.
Nothing at all!

(BREATHlNG HEAVlLY)

What is the meaning of this, boy?

l, uh... l think...

BlZMlLLAH: l think the tank is holding, boy!

Oh!

(CHUCKLES SUGGESTlVELY)

Excuse me.

You must be the mistress of this domicile.

l am the Great Bizmillah.

l know who you are.

Why a man such as Luger
would waste time on such infantile trickery

is beside me.

You don't believe in magic, hmm?

l make my own magic.

Mr Luger is simply a man obsessed.

(SUGGESTlVELY) Who knows the dark secrets
of a man's cravings, hmm?

(WHlSPERlNG) Who cares?

Huh...

Apologies for the mess.

The lad and l were practising
my escape from the water chamber of death.

Well, then, back to the thaumaturgy
and ensorcellment.

Let the show begin!

Salt.

Ladies and gentlemen,

it is with great pleasure
the Prince Regent presents

the Great Bizmillah!

Welcome, to this night of magic
and prestidigitation.

Some of you will be horrified,

some mesmerised,

and some simply astounded!

Now, as you see,

chains are hard enough to escape

and water (GASPS) suffocates the breath.

And from this chamber there is no escape.

Now, l need an able volunteer

to count my time in this chamber.

You, sir, please.

Take hold of this pocket watch.

l am unable to hold my breath
for longer than two minutes.

ls that understood, sir?

Very well.

(BREATHlNG DEEPLY)

(WATER SPLASHlNG)

Thirty seconds.

Sixty.

Ninety.

Good God, man,
let him out or he'll surely drown!

Don't just stand there, boy. Let him out!

(ALL GASPlNG)

MAN lN AUDlENCE: That was a close call.

(lN RUSSlAN ACCENT) Close indeed!

(AUDlENCE MURMURlNG AND APPLAUDlNG)

LUGER: lmpressive show you give, sir.

The pleasure is yours.

What intriguing puzzles you've created.

My mind simply cannot figure out

how you endured the swords of destiny

and l'm a very smart man.

(CHUCKLES)

Something wrong, boy?

BlZMlLLAH: Sir, have some respect.

You know very well a magician
is sworn to secrecy.

l will get it out of you somehow.

A drink perhaps.

Oh, l'm quite exhausted.

Good night, gentlemen.

Good night, sir.

l would greatly appreciate if you could return
tomorrow to set up before the show.

-Of course.
-What is it, Mariah?

l see a search in those eyes.
Did you lose something?

Someone dear to you?

You could say that.

Then l suggest you stop at nothing
until you find him.

-Can l talk to you?
-l have work to do.

Please. l have no one else.

My mother gave me this
before my parents went missing.

My brother was wearing its twin.

Yesterday l saw Luger
wearing it around his neck.

Felix is here. l know it.

Please.

You have to help me.

How?

SACHA: The lift was installed
at the same time as the steam engine.

Luger gets in and he never gets out.

He simply just disappears.

-Stay here.
-Where are you going?

l have a theory.

(ELEVATOR DlNGS)

Hmm.

(GRUNTlNG)

(CHUCKLlNG)

(KNOCKlNG ON DOOR)

Hello, girlie.

Come to admire me flex my muscles?

Not exactly.

Um, l was wanting to borrow your uniform.

My uniform?

(GRUNTS)

(SlGHS)

-Don't look so shocked. He's a pig.
-(LAUGHS) lt's not that.

lt's just l've never
knocked anyone unconscious before.

(ELEVATOR DlNGS)

Any idea what you're doing?

No. Only what l've seen.

There's no secret floor.

(SlGHS) There has to be.

Look for some kind of trigger.

l can't see anything.

(GEARS TURNlNG)

SACHA: l'd say we found Mr Luger's office.

MARlAH: This is Egyptian.

l've seen this before.

Looks like solid gold.

Charlemagne's armour.

Look at this.

(LAUGHS) l can see your footprints.

l think l found what killed Charles Pinworth.

Kills the body, mind and soul.

You might want to see this.

MARlAH: Wherever the healing stream flows
is the box

and Luger is digging for it around the hotel.

Listen to this.

"Faithfulness will be your shield
as a thousand may fall and hide,

"but no evil shall ever come near you
with gold at your side."

That's the last thing
my mother said to Felix and l.

"l now realise as l dig deeper
into the secrets of the box

"her purpose has been mistaken."

LUGER: This is the true tale of King Midas.

From the time of the Sumerians

legend tells of a man that walked with
the power of the Gods at his side.

For he could heal the sick and dying.

When some tried to steal his power
he turned it against them.

Discovering the power made so strong

that no one would dare challenge him.

And so his gift became a curse.

(PEOPLE SCREAMlNG)

So drunk did he become with his own power

that he destroyed all who stood in his path,
making himself king.

His name was Midas.

It is my belief that this box
does not only heal

but does something far more powerful.

It extinguishes life.

No wonder everyone's looking for the box.

The box is a weapon.

-(DOOR OPENS)
-(GASPS)

Someone's coming. What do we do?

We hide.

Over there.

A coffin?

Dead outside the coffin, alive inside.
You choose.

lt's a passage.

What are you waiting for?

Play your future.

(PANTlNG)

You are to use this bill of exchange

for the purchase of the new equipment.

Someone has been in here.

Find them quickly.

(ALL CONVERSlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY)

(ALL CONVERSlNG STOPS)

Coming through.

(MEN SPEAKlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY

-Argh!
-(ALL GASPlNG)

You blooming imbecile!

-l'm so sorry, sir.
-Get off.

(CHUCKLlNG QUlETLY)

CHEF: Any sign of Gormenberg?

Oh, he's here.
He'll show himself when Luger finds the box.

And then we steal it back. For all of us.

From what l know Gormenberg believes
he's close to securing it.

And the Mundis?

The Mundis are dead.

CHEF: Then we must hurry.

Position our men.
Tell them to be ready at my call.

What are you doing skulking about?

There have been complaints

that you take too long
to take the guests' bags up to their rooms

and that you disappear
for long stretches of time.

Really, miss?

Don't, "Really, miss" me.
Empty your pockets.

-But l don't...
-Empty them.

l knew it.

You will suffer greatly for this.

-You don't scare me.
-Well, l should.

Where is my brother Felix?

(GASPS)

You're Mariah Mundi.

All the time we've been looking for you

and you simply came to us.

Bringing us what we need.

The boss will be very delighted,

and perhaps you can finally join
your dearly departed parents.

Shame, they were such lovely people.

(CLANGlNG)

Mariah, where have you been?

Did we not have an appointment?

What do you want from me?
Who are you, really?

(lN BRlTlSH ACCENT)
Have you forgotten your partner?

(GRUNTlNG)

-Will.
-Sorry l was late.

The real Bizmillah was a little difficult to...

...detain. Quite a disguise, eh?

-Why didn't you tell me?
-Sorry, old boy.

Had to stay incognito,
couldn't jeopardise the mission here.

Help me. We'll hide her in the closet.

-But you've been here...
-l've been watching out for you all along.

What happened to my parents?

We suspect...

Your father's engraved wallet
was found on the banks of the Thames

with your mother's handbag.

Their bodies were never found.

No.

l don't care what you say, it's not true.

You have to stay focused, Mariah.
You have to be brave.

Luger is close to finding the box.

And what about my brother?

You find the box, you find your brother.

l know what it is. lt's a weapon.

l see you've been doing your homework.
A very powerful and very lethal weapon.

-You knew this all along?
-Suspected.

And why didn't you tell me?

lf you would've known
it could have jeopardised...

The mission. Yes, l heard you the first time.
l thought we were supposed to be partners.

Then why didn't you show me this?

l gave this to your mother.

-Where's the other half?
-On Felix.

Not any more. lt's around Luger's neck.

-(SCOFFS)
-What is it?

lt's a key. A switch that turns on the weapon.

lf he finds the box,
the key is all that stands in his way.

l'll steal back the other half
tonight at my show.

For safety, it's best
we always keep the amulet divided.

l'll make sure Luger's busy
while you find your brother.

But l've been searching everywhere for Felix,
and this hotel is a maze.

Then you're going to have to use these.

MARlAH: These aren't just ordinary cards.

They hold the soul of a fortune teller.

A gypsy woman before she died
took all the power she could muster

and transferred her essence into the cards.

We can ask them only one question.

Once we do this, there's no going back.

l think we crossed that bridge
a long time ago.

Show me, Panjandrum.

Where's my brother?

(lN RUSSlAN ACCENT) ln 1 789,

Dr Joseph Guillotin, hired Tobias Schmidt

to create the first prototype of a machine

to swiftly cleave the treacherous heads

from the forsaken
flesh and bones of criminals.

lt remains to find a volunteer

brave enough to aid me in my next,
and l might add,

potentially lethal demonstration.

Mr Luger, perhaps.

Would you do me the honour?

l'm not the performer, sir.
lt's what l pay you for.

(AUDlENCE LAUGHlNG)

People might say you are afraid
of la guillotine française.

l'm afraid of nothing, sir.

SACHA: Nothing's happening.

This is stupid.

Maybe you have to show them that
your question really matters.

l think the cards feed off emotion.
They have to feel it.

Know that your question really
means something to you.

Why is your brother missing?

l left him.

l was supposed to protect him.

(SNlFFLlNG) lt's all my fault.

l promised my parents
that l would look after him.

(WlND GUSTS)

lt's amazing.

Moving pictures.

Look. The beast.

lt's Felix.

Mariah!

Where is he?

(OVERLAPPlNG VOlCES)

Tell me where my brother is.

(VOlCE CACKLlNG)

No. No, come back.

Please, come back.

Tell me, Panjandrum, where is my brother?

(CACKLlNG)

Tell me, where is he?

No, Mariah!

lmpostor!

(AUDlENCE GASPS)

Don't! No, please,
you're suffocating him, stop!

Hello, Otto.

Look who it is. Will Charity.

(AUDlENCE MURMURlNG)

WOMAN: Good heavens!

Leave him alone, stop. Let him breathe!

No!

What did you do?

The cards needed an emotional response.

Oh.

l never said thank you
for helping me find my brother.

Make sure he's dead.

Sir.

Wait.

-Have l said something wrong?
-No.

Sacha.

l'm sorry.

lt's not that l...

l know l've burdened you with my problems.

l know you have your own concerns.

l don't need your pity
if that's what you're trying to say.

Sacha, please.

Let me help you with your father.

You think you know everything,
Mariah Mundi. Well, you don't!

He drinks to numb
the pain of my mother's death.

And looking at me
just reminds him of his loss.

l'm sorry.

(SNlFFLES)

We must find your brother.

(BELL TOLLlNG)

(CHAlNS RATTLlNG)

(CHlLD WEEPlNG)

SACHA: This place scares me, Mariah.

(THUDDlNG lN DlSTANCE)

Hello? Anybody there?

SACHA: There's no one here.
Let's just go back.

Felix?

-Felix!
-Shh!

They'll hear us.

lt's you.

Oh, it's really you.

lt's you, it's really you.

You came.

What happened, Felix?

We're slaves. They're digging for something.

They drill these holes
and have us crawl inside looking for a box.

Don't worry. We're going to free you.
All of you.

(GRUNTlNG)

l knew you'd find me.

l've been looking for you everywhere.

SACHA: Come on. Come on!

They're too strong.

MARlAH: Oh, come on.

SACHA: lt won't break.
MARlAH: Break!

And Ma and Papa?

Oh, no. lt's too late.

(CHlLDREN SCREAMlNG)

No, help me.

Help me! No!

l'm sorry.

Please, Mariah!

l promise you that l'll find you. You hear me?

(STRAlNlNG)

Help me, please! No!

(CHAlNS RATTLlNG)

(MARlAH GRUNTlNG)

(FELlX SCREAMlNG)

MARlAH: No!

FELlX: Mariah!

Mariah!

(MARlAH PANTlNG)

(RUMBLlNG)

Hide!

SACHA: lt's not a beast.
lt's some kind of drilling machine.

l'm not leaving Felix alone.

He's somewhere underground.
And the entrance is in the hotel.

Go to the village,
get the police and whomever you can find.

-Good luck.
-You, too.

Father, it's the Prince Regent.

We've found a...

-What have you done, girl?
-She's a thief.

Aren't you, girlie?

Come on, girl! You're in a lot of trouble now!

(GRUNTlNG)

Water of the Gods.

That's the symbol for water.

(GRUNTlNG)

(RUMBLlNG)

LUGER: Now, all of you, get back to digging!

(CHlLD CRYlNG)

Find me that box,
maybe you'll find your freedom.

(GRUNTlNG)

GUARD: Keep digging, you little worm.

lf you'd just stop struggling,
you'd make everything so much easier.

(LUGER LAUGHlNG)

Well, finally.

Their shoes match those who
ransacked your office, sir.

And the girlie was carrying these.

CHlLD: Stop it.

Where is Mariah Mundi?

l don't know what you're talking about.

So much for loyalty, you little char.

(GROANlNG)

(GASPS)

-No!
-Shh!

Come on.

Mariah, your amulet.

Come on.

lt's getting brighter.

What does that mean?

lt means that l've been
digging in the wrong place.

lt appears that
when both halves of the amulet

are close to the location of
the box at the same time,

they glow.

Hence this impromptu reunion.

Or should l say formal introduction?

l finally know the identity of the intrepid,
but extremely irritating

Mariah Mundi.

l applaud you,
being under my nose all the time.

(AMULET HUMMlNG)

So,

let's find the box.

(HUMMlNG lNTENSlFlES)

Gentlemen, we have work to do.

Ah!

At last.

All these years, l've been waiting.

Go and get the box, both of you.

Don't worry, we'll take excellent care
of your little girlfriend.

(DOOR CREAKS)

lt's so small.

We can't give it to him.

What else can we do?

They have Sacha.

LUGER: Hurry up, l haven't got all day.

(WATER RUSHlNG)

MARlAH: Let's get out of here, quickly!

(FELlX GRUNTS)

Now, Mr Cleavy, if you would, the amulet.

Felix!

Mariah!

Felix!

Mariah, hand me the box and l will help you.

FELlX: Mariah!

Mariah!

Come out quickly, man, there isn't much time.

FELlX: Mariah!

Now give me the amulet to open the door.

Thanks, old boy, much appreciated.

No hard feelings.

No, wait!

Mariah!

Sacha, the amulet! l need the amulet!

Kill them. Kill them all.

FELlX: Help me, get me, help me!
MARlAH: Felix!

Help me, Mariah!

Felix, hang on!

FELlX: Help me!

(MARlAH GRUNTlNG)

Come back! Come back!

CHARlTY: Hello, Otto!

Oh, you again.

Back by popular demand.

Why don't you just die?

BLACK: Stop, nobody move!
Put your guns down.

Under the authority of
the Bureau ofAntiquities,

we're here to secure the box.

Oh, you brought some friends, how nice.

Black.

Charity.

Hand it over, Luger.

lt'd be very poor form to shoot a little girl.

Almost as bad as hiding behind her, hmm?

To be frank, Mr Charity,
l'm a little tired of all of this.

(GRUNTS)

(BULLETS RlCOCHET)

(GUNFlRE CONTlNUES)

BLACK: Give up, Luger!

You're surrounded.

lt's filling up with water. Get me out.

l'll come back.

No, what? Don't leave me!

Mariah!

-l need those amulets.
-He'll kill you.

No evil shall ever come near you
with gold at your side.

l think l know how to stop him.
How to stop the weapon.

Gold is not what the box creates.

Gold is the only shield
against the power of the box.

Help the children.

(GUNFlRE CONTlNUES)

(HAMMER CLlCKlNG)

There's no place for you to go, Luger.

Oh, really?

BLACK: lt's over.

(AMULET HUMMlNG)

(WHlRRlNG)

BLACK: Last chance, Otto!

(COCKS GUN)

(PANTlNG)

Sir, sir!

l have to find Sacha.

(GRUNTS)

Come on.

Where do you think you're going?

Out of the way, miss.

Hush, child, no need to get excited.

MAN: Let her go.

-Let her go.
-Father?

l'm sorry, Sacha.

l'm so sorry.

-lt's time to sleep.
-(HlSSlNG)

-(GRUNTlNG)
-No!

(SNlFFLES)

(GRUNTlNG)

Come on, please!

(RUMBLlNG)

No harm shall come with gold on my side.

(SCREAMlNG)

(MlDAS BOX POWERS DOWN)

(PEOPLE SCREAMlNG)

How are you doing, boy?

(GRUNTS)

(CHOKlNG)

lt's been fun,

but the fun's got to end.

Shame you won't see your parents again.

They're alive?

-Of course they are.
-CHARlTY: Let him go.

(CHOKlNG)

(GRUNTlNG)

Will!

Didn't l kill you once already?

You're blessed with excellent aim, Otto!

Will!

(GRUNTlNG)

(PANTlNG)

(LUGER CHUCKLES)

l really am sorry it has to end this way,
old chum.

ln another life, we could have been friends.

(SCREAMlNG)

You all right, old chap?

Splendid, sir! And don't wait for me, go!

Felix!

Felix! Felix! Felix!

Felix! Felix!

Felix, come on, Felix, breathe.

Come on, Felix, come on, Felix.

Felix, come on, breathe.

Felix, come on, Felix, breathe!

Felix! Felix!

Felix, come on, Felix, breathe,
you're all l have!

(SPUTTERS)

Oh, you're alive!

What took you so long?

Where should l start?

l knew you'd come.

That's what big brothers are for, right?

AGENT: You're going to spend
the rest of your life behind bars, Mr Grimm.

(GRUNTS)

There is nothing more valuable
than human life.

And your actions have protected that
in more ways than you can know.

You've made your parents very proud.

For this, and for your services to Her Majesty,

the Bureau ofAntiquities is very grateful.

Does this make us secret agents?

(CHUCKLES)

Well, if you keep up with your studies and...

The Bureau may call on your services again.

Thank you, sir.

l'm sorry for getting you
involved in all of this.

l'm sorry for your father.

All scars heal with time.

Where will you go? Back to the island?

l suppose. Where else?

Do you think, maybe,

you would like to come and stay with us?

With you?

Just a minute.

(CLEARS THROAT)
l came to say goodbye.

Where are you going?

lt was Gormenberg behind all this, you know.

l suspect he knows where your parents are.

Can l come?

Not today.

But l'll be back.

Captain.

Thank you.

You did well, Mariah!

Quite well.

(KNOCKlNG ON DOOR)

-Delivery, sir.
-Ah!

Please sign.

Thank you, Mr Gormenberg.

(WHlMPERlNG)

GORMENBERG: Hush now, my darling.
There's nothing to worry about.

lf you hadn't given the boys the amulets,
none of this would've happened.

l know what you're like.

You'll get yourself all excited,
so l think it's best if you just stay put.

Stop looking at me like that.

So, l'm a bad man.

But l have so many plans.

So many things to do.
