All language subtitles for The Librarians S01E01 And the Crown of King Arthur-eng

( police radio chatter )

This is team leader.
We have confirmation

On a weapon of
mass destruction
inside the building.

Let's go.

( shouting in foreign language )

Priority one is
retrieval of that package.

Do not damage it or...

Or i will be
very angry.

Prepare to breach.

We can't breach
without backup.

You're telling me
i need permission, hawkins?

Is that what
you're telling me?

Preparing to breach.

Breach in 3, 2--

Freeze!
Hands in the air!

( gunfire )

( yelling )

( shouting in foreign language )

- Freeze!
- ( beeps )

Drop your weapons!

We surrender.
Lower your gun, please.

- Put your weapon down.
- ( beeping )

Hawkins, i need backup.

Hawkins!

( beeping )

Why is that beeping?

( knocking )

No, that's not it.

Where's the steam vents?

Nazis are always mad
about steam vents.

( grunts )

Guten morgen?

( speaks german )

Don't mind me.
You're obviously busy.

I'm just here for
the opal of samarra.

The opal of--

Samarra.

Teutonic knights recovered
it from jerusalem

During the third crusade.

It was stolen by
the nazi occult division
and stored here...

Forgotten after the war.

It is still, ha!

Locked in the original
magical safe.

Which makes sense as it
is dangerous and valuable.

- Uh, dangerous?
- And valuable.

It summons demons,
but it doesn't control them

And that is demonologists
for you.

Careless, homicidal.

Another common pair.

- Pair of...
- Adjectives.

They travel in pairs.
Dangerous, valuable.

Careless, homicidal.
Do try to keep up.

- Ah!
- ( whooshing )

I apparently set off a trap.

Which i have about...

Three minutes to disarm

Before the opal transforms
every corpse

In a 100 mile radius
into flesh eating zombies,

Which seems
unnecessarily dramatic.

Make it stop.

Well, i'm trying,

But this is a very complex
alphanumerical code

Based on latin bible verses
and it would be a lot easier

To concentrate if someone
were to turn off that
beeping nuclear bomb!

( beeping )

( grunts )

( sneezes )

How do i defuse this thing?

Of course,
stations of the cross!

For the bomb?

No, no, no.
For the deathtrap.

The bomb is actually
much easier.

Is it a black cylinder
or round like a soccer ball?

- Cylinder.
- ( gunfire )

Pop open the side casing.

- See that blue wire?
- Yes!

Don't touch the blue wire.

( screams )
start with "don't"!
Start with "don't"!

So, there are eight
stations of the cross--

Fourteen!

Only eight in the bible.

Oh, pull out that
silver cube, by the way.

John is the fourth gospel,
condemned to execution.

Book 19 verse 17,
latin numerals four, one,

Nine, one, six,
one, seven.

Hey!

We're 50% less
likely to die.

( shouting )

We are, anyway.

Simon and the women
of jerusalem.

Which gospel is that?

Ooh, luke.
Gospel of luke.

Very clever.

Ah!

Final disarm, two,
two, five, six, six--

Yours or mine?

Improbably, both.

- Two, two, five, six, six.
- Two, two, five, six, six.

( hissing )

Give me the bomb.

- Three-one.
- Three-one?

There are 30 rounds
in an ak-47 magazine
and one in the chamber.

I heard him fire 31 shots.
I did not hear him reload.

- ( gun clicks )
- ( grunts )

( ticking )

( whooshing )

( children's voices )

( sighs )

That was--

How did you
know all that?

I'm the librarian.

Oh, my shoulder!

Colonel baird!
Colonel baird!

You good?

( dialing )

Hello, i must speak
to flynn carsen.

I must speak with
the librarian.

Uh, mr. Carsen is actually
in minneapolis at

A library sciences seminar.

But we have many other
very qualified librarians.

Flynn carsen was not
in minneapolis,

He was in berlin recovering
the opal of samarra.

It's you, isn't it?

This is flynn carsen,
the librarian.

How do you know who i am?

You won't remember me.
I'm outside. I'm coming in!

What do you mean,
you're right outside?

How do you know
about the library?

I'll explain everything in
greater detail when we meet.

Just tell me where
to meet you.

( grunts )

The crown is mine.

( gasps )

( crowd chatters )

Okay, okay.
Back it up. Back it up.

All right. Stand back.
Stand back.

No, no, sir.
I do not need any time off.

My report?

No, i'm not saying
he was a librarian.

He claimed--

A month on leave?

What am i gonna do
for a month?

Yes, sir.
Thank you, sir.

( sighs )

You have been selected
to interview for

A prestigious position

With the metropolitan
public library.

Library?

Librarian.

Excuse me.

I was told
to find charlene.

Oh, for the--

Flynn knows he's not supposed
to be ordering delivery.

This organization is on
a very tight budget,

But now, i am the only one
that cares about the budget.

Take it.

I'm colonel eve baird.

I received this,
slipped under my door.

You got the white envelope.

I'm charlene.

And you are,
what, colonel, what?

Colonel, military?
Colonel, police?
Air force? What?

Nato counter-terrorism unit.
Please stop touching me.

Oh,
you're the new guardian.

Oh, flynn's gonna
make a fuss.

He hasn't had
a guardian in 10 years.

But even he can't argue
with a white envelope.

Oh, i have so many
forms for you to sign.

- What's a guardian?
- What's a guardian.

Adorable.

All right, eve baird,
got that.

We're going down.

Very far down.

Oh, those, it's really
a metaphor, not real numbers.

Okay, sign here,
here, and here.

Each librarian has a guardian,

Someone who is trained
in combat, tactics,

Survival, sort of the brawn
to the librarian's brain.

No, no, much
more than that.

Sort of the, uh, common sense
to their head in the clouds.

Didn't see a lot of
threatening situations

In the bookshelves
upstairs.

The metropolitan library
upstairs?

That's just the entrance to
the real library downstairs

Where we keep all
the artifacts and magic

Too dangerous to be left
out in the world.

There's no such
thing as--

As--

As magic.

The library collects
ancient knowledge and
ensures that magic,

Real magic, doesn't fall
into the wrong hands.

This is--
th-- this is real?

You got the white envelope,
an invitation to join

The library, which means the
library needs your expertise.

Welcome to the secret world,
colonel baird.

Welcome to the library.

( laughing, clanking )

Oh, you're getting
sloppy, cal. Really.

A desvio technique against
the molinello defense?

-I don't think so.
- And meet the librarian.

- ( gasps )
- excalibur! No!
She's here to help.

Don't!

Wounds caused by
excalibur never heal.

Magic.

( excalibur pants )

Cal, go on patrol.
I'll meet you.

What are you doing here?

What is she doing here?

Colonel eve baird,
meet flynn carsen,
the librarian.

We've... We've met.
T-t-that's excalibur.

You call
excalibur "cal"?

We're friends.
Best friends.

Besties, really.

Why would
you send her that?

I don't send
the invitations.

The library does.

The library sends
the invitations.

I believe colonel baird
has been chosen

To be your guardian.

( laughs )

I don't need a guardian.

You hear that?

I don't need her!
I'm fine.

( clears throat )

I think there's been some
sort of misunderstanding.

I'm sorry. Goodbye.
Don't come back.

Don't come back.

And don't tell me
what to do.

Oh, you are perfect.

Say hello to judson
for me!

Sayonara, arrivederci,
and goodbye.

- I need an answer.
- This is my answer.

Walking away quickly
is not an answer.

How about this?

Well, if you won't tell me
what a guardian is,

Point me to one of
the other librarians.

Charlene!

There are no
other librarians.

There's only ever
one librarian.

And when he dies,
another takes his place.

Good day.

Was he the librarian
before you?

Judson? No.

He was more than that.

He was, um...

Well, he found me,
he trained me,

He was there for me
when my-- my mother--

He died five years ago.

Sorry?

He's with us in spirit.

That's nice.

No, literally in spirit.

Nice reflexes.

She, uh, she will make
a good guardian.

Hey,
buy a guy a drink first.

You're dead.

It's easier
than it looks.

A guardian, for
your information,

Is the librarian's
partner and bodyguard.

You see, a life of fighting evil
cults and monsters, well...

Librarians tend to die.

Often.

Sometimes even
more than once.

Flynn's survived ten years.

Longer, eh, longer than
anyone and most of it
without a guardian.

Alone.

It's-- it's changed him.

Ha!

Um, this is,
this is too much.

Magic is real and a building
sent me an envelope?

I have a job.

I-- i hunt terrorists.

I took an oath to protect
innocent people, to--

To be a guardian.

Now, you do the same job
but in a world

With evils
only you can face.

There's only one ever guardian
in the whole world, eve baird.

And the library thinks
that it should be you.

Do you mind?

I'm trying to solve
a murder here.

Well, you're doing
a pretty poor job of it.

- Is that the
foyer upstairs?
- It's foyer.

So you're saying this
dr. Jonas sheer--

Shay-ear.

Professor of archeology,
five phds, was killed

On your doorstep and you
don't have a single lead?

Oh,
i've got lots of leads.

I've got a plethora
of possibilities.

A cornucopia of clues.

I just don't see how
they all connect!

He was trying to show me
this when he was killed.

It has something to
do with this crown.

What painting is that?

I don't know and that is
what is vexing me.

Ooh.
( laughs )

I like that.

I haven't used
that word in a while.

Vex. Vex.

Vexatious.
Vex, vex, vex--

He was here.

How did he know about
your secret library?

Also vexing.

It's one of the best
kept secrets in the world.

He was smart.
Very, very smart, but--

Is it possible you dropped
one of your special glowing
envelopes by mistake?

( laughs )

No, yes, no!

Not dropped. Sent.

He was smart.
He was very, very smart.

Was he so smart that
you sent him an envelope?

What are you looking for?

The ledger, the ledger,
the ledger.

When the librarian dies,
the library doesn't

Just send out one letter.
It sends out hundreds.

Hundreds to qualified
replacements all over
the world.

And it invites them
in for an interview.

- Many are called,
one is chosen.
- Precisely.

And professor jonas sheir,

With his five phds would
certainly have been qualified.

We have to sign in.

He said i wouldn't
remember him.

He was here.

He was here and he signed in
on the day that i was chosen

To be librarian
instead of him.

And now he's dead.

I know this name.

Dr. Abraham thomas.

Mm. Professor of physics.
Doctor of medicine.

Speaks four languages.

I met dr. Thomas at a nato
conference on bio-weapons.

He died in
a car accident last month.

Far shariad,
tehran university?

Plane crash.

Someone's killing
librarians.

Not all of them, just these,
top ranked, top dozen or so.

Dead... Dead...

Disappeared...

These three top-ranked
candidates

Don't pop death notices.

They didn't come
in for interviews.

Ezekiel jones?
Oh, you got to be kidding me.

You sent an envelope
to ezekiel jones?

Well, at least he never
came in for an interview.

Maybe they got dropped
to the bottom of the kill list.

They could still be alive.

First contact's address
is in new york.

That's where i'm going.
Thank you for your help.

I was invited.

Not by me.

I don't need
your permission.

( sirens )

See, i really, really
work better alone.

What judson described?
A partner?

- It's a sound
operating structure.
- I've had partners before

And they've left
or they've gone.

They're gone
and they're dead.

Or they're dead
and they're gone.

But,
if you'll excuse me,

Right now i need to find
cassandra cillian.

Female, early twenties,
collapsed at school.

High fever,
bp 1 over 90,

Pulse 100, temp 102.5.

Sudden high fever,
sore joints, nausea
and vomiting.

Sensitivity to light
and stiff neck. Meningitis?

Push a wide spectrum
antibiotic, let's
get a lumbar tap--

Pardon me but it's not,
it's not meningitis.
It's psittacosis.

The symptoms of psittacosis
and meningococcus are similar,

For example, the sensitivity
to light, but you're ignoring
the other factors.

The other factors--
she's wearing a necklace

That has parrot feathers
that she picked up
off the ground--

She could have bought that.
Let's go, we're wasting time.

No, it's homemade.
The feathers fading.

Commercial feathers are
preserved against sunlight

And ultraviolet light,
ultraviolet--

Ultraviolet,
400 nanometers.

She's right.
914 different species
of bird in north america

And this doesn't match--
that--

Ooh, that's an
african parrot feather.

You heard the janitor.
Psittacosis, parrot fever.

- Let's go!
- Radiation,
ultraviolet radiation.

Radiation.

Radiation from
the collision of matter
and anti-matter--

Paul dirac mathematically
predicted the existence

Of positrons with a mass
of 9.1 10 negative
31 kilograms protons

With mass of 1.67262178

Times negative 27 kilograms-

Neutrons with a mass of--

( panting )

Cassandra cillian?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
It'll stop in a second.

Oh. I smell peanuts
this time.

That's not bad.

Wow. Auditory and sensory
hallucinations linked
to memory retrieval.

You're a synesthete.

Wow. Yes.

- Hi.
- Hi.

She has a photographic
memory like mine.

Only her brain
is cross-wired.

All five senses
are linked to her memory.

Unbelievable.

I was about to be
super-pissed at you

For assuming i don't know
what a synesthete is,

But i actually don't know
what a synesthete is.

Numbers are colors,
science is musical notes,

When i do math,
i smell things.

Mostly breakfast.

You're in a lot of danger.
You need to come with us.

Are you the police?

No, i'm the librarian.

Go get your coat.

Okay. Two left.

But on the opposite sides
of the world.

If somebody's
hunting these people,

You're risking their lives
by not accepting my help.

You need me.

Okay, if i can't
get rid of you,

I will make use of you,
so why don't we both take one.

Here, no actually,
i will take mr. Jones.

Good luck to you out there.
Get ready for anything.

Define anything.

Oh, ninjas, possibly.

Ninjas?
In oklahoma?

( beeping )

( beeping )

( beeping )

- ( screams )
- ( zaps )

- Why is that guard
holding a dagger?
- He's not a guard.

He's here to kill you,
ezekiel jones.

And i'm assuming you're
not here to kill me.

So, tell you what,
watch my back for ten minutes

And i'll cut you in on 10%.

( chuckles )

You. Don't i know you?
Yeah, cairo museum.

You were that crazy professor
who said the crown jewels
of amenhotep were cursed.

Librarian, not professor.
But, yeah.

I stole those jewels
right out of the main exhibit.

Oh, i know. I'm the one
who had to smite
the evil mummy.

And now you're going
to steal this jeweled dagger.

Oh, no, no, no.
It's mine.

I just left it locked
in this display case
on my way to work this morning.

You know how that happens.

Looped the video to avoid
the motion detectors, clever.

You're smart
enough to be my sidekick.
We'll call you "kid crime".

You can wear
little green shorts.

Burning through the glass in a
room full of infrared sensors.

- Less clever.
- ( alarms blaring )

( men shouting )

My escape route's cut off.

Mine's not.

- What do you want, mate?
- Come to new york,

Find out why people are
trying to kill you.

Sidekick.

I'm not your sidekick,
you might be my sidekick.

Let's go, let's go!

Yee-ha!

Ride 'em, cowgirl!

( country music playing )

( cheering )

Good ride.

Okay.

- You working
the pipeline sunday?
- Yes sir, i am.

I got about an hour after
church so i'm gonna run down

To that junkyard, see if
they got that '68 gearbox.

She ain't from around here.

No, she's not.

She's from somewhere
interesting.

Gentlemen.

Time for the master
to go to work.

Idiot.

How's your daddy?

Too drunk to work,
he's too stubborn to die.

- That was quick.
- She's crazy.

She's crazy?

Why, 'cause she wouldn't
leave with you.

Hell, half our high school
must be insane.

She won't even
talk to you

Unless you an explain
that weird tattoo.

Excuse me.

Hey.

That's a nice tattoo
you got there.

Tell you what, cowboy.

Tell me what it means

And i'll let you
buy me a drink.

It looks like you got
some foreign words there,

Is that "i-talian?"

( sighs )

Aestus cruentus adventus est,

Et ubique carmen
pudicitiae submerse est.

"and the blood-dimmed
tide is loosed,

And everywhere
the ceremony of innocence
is drowned."

That's yeats,
"the second coming",

It's his poem about
the apocalypse.

So tell me, what's a pretty
little thing like you

Doin' running around with
the end of the world
on her arm?

Hmm.

I'm lamia.

Hi.

And you must be
jacob stone.

I'm not--

- Whoa! Whoa!
- Sorry. No.

Hey, ho, whoa, no!

Who are these guys?

Ninjas? Possibly?

- In oklahoma?
- That's what i said.

( grunting )

( shouting )

Not bad for an amateur.

There ain't nothing amateur
about my bar-fighting,
sweetheart.

( shouting )

Oh, wait, forgot my hat.

This way, this way.

( tires screech )

Ah, man, i'm gonna
miss that hat.

You mind telling me what
that was all about?

You were targeted because
of your expertise.

My expertise?

Y'all think they're out
there killing oil riggers

With ninjas, you all
got another--

Jacob stone,
i.Q. 190,

Accepted to the sorbonne
and cambridge for

An arts degree,
turned 'em both down.

But for the past 20 years
under a pseudonym

You've secretly been
writing literature

On european and native american
art history

All while working
on an oil rig five miles

From the town where
you grew up.

Y'all.

I don't get why
i'm stuck here with

A cowboy and a maid.

You might want to apologize
to the little lady.

Little lady actually
not an improvement
over maid.

Is it just me or
is this elevator--

This thing's going
really fast.

Improbably,
terrifyingly fast.

( elevator dings )

( giggles )

You got to be
kiddin' me.

Not kidding. But we don't have
a lot of time, so questions?

Ask them.

Is that
the spear of destiny?

Yes.

- Ark of the covenant?
- Yes.

What about bigfoot
and dracula?

Yes and no.
Yes on bigfoot.

So vampires aren't real?

Vampires are real, but dracula
is not because i killed him.

Is this helping?
I don't know that it is.

What?

Ten years ago each of you
received an envelope

Inviting you to apply for a
position here in this library,

But you never showed.

Ten years ago i was
in a hospital.

Right,
with your tumor.

Um, synesthetes rarely have
all five senses involved.

You've got full on
hallucinations and seizures,

Indicative of
a frontal lobe anomaly.

Oligodendroglioma.

How big is it?

It's about the size
of a grape.

Which i really wish
they hadn't told me because
i used to really like grapes.

- Are you--
- not yet.

Someday, sooner than
i'd like, but not yet.

But i lived long enough
to learn magic exists,

- So that's pretty cool.
- Very cool.

Stone, why didn't
you show up?

'cause i already had a job.
Family business.

I threw mine out.

It was obviously
a mistake.

I steal stuff.
I've been stealing stuff
since i was a kid.

I'm not going to get invited
to work at a library.

- It's a magic library.
- Yeah, great, it doesn't
fill my pocket.

I came here to find out
who's trying to kill me.

If magic's real, how come
we don't see it all the time?

Once upon a time,

The world was filled
with magic.

Traveled among a power
network called ley lines.

See the ley lines?
See the magic.

Over the centuries,
the magic was drained off

And stored into artifacts.

- Like excalibur?
- Exactly.

He was one of
the most powerful.

He?

Magic continued to fade
as cities were constructed

Over the ley lines
and technology

Began to advance
and as you can see now

There's very
little magic left.

My job is to make sure
that what remains

Doesn't fall
into the wrong hands.

Like the people who tried
to kill the three of you.

The woman who tried to kill
stone had a snake tattoo.

The serpent brotherhood.

An ancient cult bent on bringing
magic back into the world.

I've fought them before.

So these serpent ninja
brotherhood fellas

Are the ones that
are trying to kill us?

The serpent brotherhood
use assassins.

Ha! Ninjas?

Who said ninjas? In oklahoma?
That would be ridiculous.

But what did
professor sheir find

That pushed
the brotherhood to kill him,

Then murder their
way down the list?

Still vexing.

Does it have anything to do
with this painting,

"the crown of king arthur"?

What?

The crown of king arthur.
You sure?

Yeah.

The crown of king arthur
was forged by merlin

To give arthur control
over the magic

That he needed
to build camelot.

So the brotherhood wants
to bring magic back,

But they need
the crown to control it.

Cannot believe i just said
that with a straight face.

Um, why is bringing
magic back bad?

'cause magic seems
pretty cool.

Magic is cool, until warring
nations drown each other

In tidal waves of blood

Or use dragons to burn
cities to the ground.

Magic, used well,
can be good.

But a world of wild magic?

It's full of chaos.
Suffering.

I will begin by exam--

I will begin by examining
the original painting.

Well, i just said that
i remember it was called

"the crown of king arthur".
It's a minor piece.

Unknown artist.
I don't know where
that thing's at.

Munich museum of
history and art.

I cased it last month
for a heist,

Memorized the inventory.

There's a flight
to munich,

Three flights to munich
out of jfk,

One at 6:00,
one at 7:15,

And 10:45.

That's why
they were targeted.

You were busy doing
whatever librarians do--

Saving the world.
A lot.

And they,
the other librarians--

Not librarians,
i'm the only librarian.

--Were the people most
likely to find the crown.

The brotherhood was just trying
to wipe out the competition.

- I say we beat 'em to it.
- Fair enough.

Nobody tries to stab
ezekiel jones in the back.

- I've never been
to europe, so--
- uh, first of all, no.

Second of all, let's not
refer to our self in
the third person.

Europe is over-rated
and i work alone.

So, if you'll
excuse me, goodbye.

Uh-uh.
I got an envelope.

The library invited me
to this party

And i'm taking them
to munich.

Maybe we'll see you there.
Do try to keep up.

Sorry.

Y-- you don't have
to do this alone.

You-- you can't.

I'm not alone.

You're here.
Charlene's here.

Excalibur's here.

I-- i can't stay
forever.

Well, then, go.

Wherever, whenever.

If you're ready
to go, go.

It's-- it's not
about when i'm ready.

You were supposed
to live forever.

( bell tolling )

So, why are we looking
for a brit's crown

In a german museum?

Well, historically camelot
fell to the goth invaders,

So they could have
taken the crown back
to ancient germania

Hidden it,

And they left clues
in the cultural artifacts

I think i heard one
night on the radio.

You are one strange cowboy.

Hello.

What can you tell us?

Step this way.

Step this way, please,
ladies and gentlemen.

Proceed to right.

Flynn.

Flynn!

Split up.
Find the painting.

Yes, ma'am.

"crown of king arthur",
artist unknown, painted 1146,

Installed as one of
the original pieces

In this museum in 1546.

Look at the
swords of the knights.
Roman short swords.

Arthur's wearing the equipment
of a roman legionnaire.

It's the roman hypothesis.

The theory is that when
the roman empire fell,

The roman legions stationed
in britain stayed behind.

Camelot as a city.

Armored warriors.
Legionnaires.

It all fits.

- Arthur was a roman.
- Arthur was a roman.

There's only one problem.
The painting's a fake.

Hey, wendt,
go over there.

( grunting )

This color red,
it's a dye.

It's called carmine;
it was discovered in,
like, the 1500s.

Painting can't be
as early as 1100s.

Also, odd,
it can't be moved.

This frame's anchored
into the beam.

You'd have to smash
down this wall to move it.

One zero, one,
one, zero, one zero.

There's a binary code
engraved into the frame
that you can't move.

Who cares?
That's not the--

The point is that
this is a--

This type of security
is not used in europe.

( overlapping dialogue )

All right, enough,
enough, enough!

It's like listening to
the inside of my own head.

Except louder.

We have a fake painting.
Why is it a fake?

Because it's meant
as a message, not art.

And it's in a frame
that can't be moved,

Which means that
the frame's location in
this museum is important.

And it has a code in it.

A coordinate code,
leading you...

Somewhere.
But it requires a key.

Some sort of
reference point.

Like a fixed point
in space.

Like a painting
that can't be moved.

The entire museum
is the key.

The dimensions, the floors,
the rooms in the museum

As they relate to where
the painting is.

That's the key to the code.

Leading where?

Let's find out.

( grunting )

( shouts )

There!

Latin.

The "crown of the celts

Lies seventy leagues
to the great woods"

And then there are
some coordinates.

This means, the crown
of king arthur is real

And it's buried in
the black forest.

Well,
where have you been?

Some very exciting
stuff's going on here.

( sighs )

Whoa!

We're close.

We can walk from here.

Okay, i think first
we should probably just stop

And snack and hydrate.

I packed some sandwiches,
some cucumbers,

Some crackers and some
delicious prosciutto.

People are trying to kill us
and you brought a picnic.

Hey. We're on
an adventure.

Driving down bad roads
in a crappy truck.

This sure beats my day job

Which is driving down bad roads
in a crappy truck.

( helicopter blades whirring )

The serpent brotherhood.

- They have a helicopter.
- Yeah.

Why don't we
have a helicopter?

Because we have a charlene,

Who approved a budget
for one rental car.

Doesn't matter,
doesn't matter.

We still have the advantage,
because all the clues

For the crown's location will
be down here on ground level.

They have a helicopter
and are trained killers.

You and i have very different
definitions of "advantage".

- ( helicopter
blades whirring )
- ( phone rings )

- Sir?
- Lamia,

Centuries of planning
depend on you outrunning

One half-mad librarian,
his part-time bodyguard

And their amateur sidekicks.

You can understand
my frustration.

We had some issues
at the museum.

Get the crown.
Kill whom you must.

But understand without
the crown,

It will take us 100 years
to remake the world.

With the crown, we can do
it in a single night.

Good job, by the way.
The museum.

You think about it.

We kind of have
the same job.

Running around the world,
finding dangerous objects.

Yes, it's important work

Which is why
i need to stay focused.

I get that.

The whole time i'm home,
i'm just thinking
about my next job.

Exactly.

I don't need friends and
family cluttering up my life.

I get so sick of
my friends and family.

That's funny.

Um,
for what it's worth,

You're not nearly as weird

As i thought you were
in berlin.

Well, i think you are--

Henge.

Henge.

I'm henge. Cool.

( laughing )

A henge!

This is unheard of
in this part of the world.

This is the second clue
to the burial place
of the crown.

( helicopter blades whirring )

You solve this,
i'll go stall them.

I'm your guardian,
for now.

You're not my guardian.

Take ezekiel with you.

Wait, wait, what?
Because i'm expendable?

Well, for ancient astronomical
puzzles, i need

A historian,
i need a scientist.

- But...
- And you're a
little expendable.

They'll be spread out
in pairs,

So we have some
room to move.

Yeah, i've slipped past
police in 20 different
countries.

I think i know
what i'm doing.

Yeah, i know.
I've read your
fbi file.

Yeah, criminals do
tend to get those.

No, your other one.

Bloody hell.

Astrological symbology
in latin.

"when the sun passes
through upon the fourth day
after solstice."

It's like stonehenge,
the light only comes

Through certain openings,
certain hours on certain days.

In fact there's only one day
a year where you can read it.

And that day is not today.

Maybe we could recreate
the sun's path.

Well, over several days,
months apart,

I could triangulate
each position.

I can do that math.

( sighs )

It's gonna take me awhile.

It won't take me awhile.

Where are we?

We're in the black forest.

No, she means 84.3
degrees north,

18.5 degrees east.

At solstice, the height
is 52.5 degrees.

The sun's on the ecliptic,

23.5 degrees off
the celestial equator,

Equator, equator.

Solstice degrees add latitude
then subtract one degree a day--

Cassandra?

Find it...

Yes.

48.5 degrees over that rock.
How high is that rock?

About nine feet.

Nine feet,
three meters.

Cosine 48.5 degrees times
48.5 degrees,

The shadow ends there.

It's venus beneath
the harvest moon.

Venus's transgression
across the sky

At this latitude,
it's on a 15 degree arc.

This part of the world,
the harvest would be
a late october festival.

October, the stars,
stars.

The orionid meteor shower
from halley's comet--

Cassandra.

No, don't, i can't stop.

Venus is over this rock
in late october.

Let's line it up.

"but the two months march
past the rise of spring
as the rise of kings."

Vernal equinox,
sun crosses the equator,

90 degrees...

Latitude plus...
60 degrees, rising,

Rising, rising,
rising into aphelion,

Farthest from the sun
in summer.

That's funny.

What's going on?

Summer smells,
it's oranges.

Listen, listen,
listen to me. All right?

Now i may have a trick.
Listen, listen.
All right?

Now your sensations
need a context,

One place where you
remember smelling the oranges.

A strong memory,
something stronger
than the smell.

- Breakfast.
- Okay.

- Breakfast--
- there you go.

- I'm twelve.
- All right.

That's a girl, right there.
Lock in on that.

My dad's doing the bills
and i balance the checkbook
in my head.

He's so proud of me.

They're both
so proud of me.

How'd you do that?

It was bachiani.

Italian artist in the 1800s.

He was a synesthete,

And he might have mentioned
that little trick
in his memoirs.

I think that was the last
time they were proud of me.

Well, parents ain't
ever easy, cassie.

Got it.

That's old iron.

I could cut through
it with a weldin' torch.

Don't suppose you packed
one of those, did you?

Actually,
cassandra did.

In the truck there's an oxygen
tank in the first aid kit.

Would you mind?

Oh.

They've already moved off.
We need to draw them
back here.

Hey, thief, can you
hotwire a helicopter?

Well, as a matter
of fact...

I think i heard something.

This way!

( helicopter engine starts )

The helicopter!

To sustain a flame,
to create the thermic lance,

You need a
high-energy medium.

Most people would use metal
like magnesium,

But a high protein meat
like prosciutto

Stuffed into a cucumber
works just as well.

Bacon would be
better but--

Ready?

Cutting tool.

Both effective and delicious.
I'll be back.

He just made a cutting
torch out of a picnic lunch.

This is exactly like
my day job.

( grunting )

Talented.

You should work for us.

I like the librarian.

He's weird,
but he's interesting.

( grunts )

I'll tell him that
when i kill him.

Do you mind if i cut in?

( grunting )

You brought a crowbar
to a sword fight.

I was trained by excalibur.
I think i'm gonna be okay.

We do not want to be here.

Time to go!

( shouts )

Stone, how we doing?

I'm done.

Congratulations.

You just did something
that no librarian

Has been able to do
in 1,000 years.

You found the crown
of king arthur.

As this is where we run.

Go, go, go, go, go!

- Shotgun!
- This job seems to involve
an awful lot of running!

Oh,
you get used to it.

Okay, let's go.

And go.

Not bad for their first...

- Only.
- ...Time out.

What did you do on
your first time out?

I recovered
the spear of destiny

And stopped extra
dimensional pyramid power
from taking over the world.

Now you're just showing off.

It is a very nice crown.

Well, done and done.

Now, it's time to see about
sending you good people home.

If that's what's
appropriate.

I think col. Baird is
going to be sticking around.

But if she thinks she's getting
the same benefit package

- She got in the army--
- charlene.

Judson said that
he was ready to move on.

Oh, well...

I'll just have
a talk with him.

After all, who's in charge?
I am. Not him.

Just because he's dead...

Well, this has
been great.

But i gotta get
back to my job.

Your job?

Digging? Like, actually
digging holes?

I have responsibilities.

A man has to have dreams.

But a man's reach
should exceed his grasp,

Or what's a heaven for?

That's why i always
reach for the impossible.

You mean that's why you
always reach for other
people's stuff.

Hey, it's great
you love digging holes.

I've one talent in
this world, that's stealing.

Not proud it's the only
thing i'm good at,

But i'm damn proud
i'm good at it.

Very noble profession,

Which i am excited to
see you employ elsewhere.

Flynn? How did you
become the librarian?

Uh, the previous
librarian died.

So, if we're the last
candidates,

Does one of us become
the librarian if you die?

( laughs )

Well, if it's ezekiel,
i'm gonna shoot him

And hope someone
better pops up.

( alarm blaring )

It's the perimeter alarm.

We installed a new security
system after the last break-in.

How long till they
get past the elevators?

Well, it's not just
a secret door.

It's an actual
magical portal.

There's no way they can
breech it

Unless you disable it
from the inside.

Somebody let them in?

Find the crown.

The crown.
Okay, everybody split up.

Find charlene,
i'm going after the crown.

- I'm with you.
- I got my own backup.

Cal, come!

Is that a flying sword?

- Excalibur.
- Of course it is.

- Come on, old friend.
- Can't argue with that.

- Let's go.
- He's got a flying sword.

Miss charlene?

Hello?

What are you doing,
you following me?

Well, this place isn't
exactly well mapped out,

And i heard your voice--

Whoa.

Who disabled
the library security?

Hmm? 'cause we've
got one guy

That's good at
opening locks

And, like you said, well,
you're pretty damn good at it.

What about you, mate?

Stuck in a dead end job,
making little money.

( shouting )

Don't worry, cassandra.

I was hoping for a rematch.

Well, i brought
a sword this time.

- For what it's worth,
i believe you now.
- Why's that?

- 'cause they're trying
to kill you, too.
- That's a comfort.

Let her go, lamia,
she's no threat to you.

She's not even
a librarian.

Let her go and i'll give
you back...

The crown.

Cassandra.

They said they can save me.

That only magic
can save me.

They're
the serpent brotherhood.

Serpents lie.

( shouts )

The library's
been breached.

The serpent brotherhood
is everywhere.

No one comes into
my library without
my permission.

Do it.

The library's gotten very big.

It's, uh, it's going
to take both of us.

I know.

Oh, he'll never
save his receipts.

Merlin forged this crown

So that arthur could control
his weapons of power.

And the greatest
of all weapons?

- The magic sword excalibur.
- ( zapping )

Cal, no!

- Cal, come!
- ( cal whimpering )

You're powerful.

More than you know.

But not that powerful.

( grunts )

Flynn!

Tell dulaque
we have the key.

We will open the lock and
magic will return to the world.

First,
kill the librarian.

Yes, ma'am.

( music playing )
