Castlegard.

DOCTOR: Clear.

Two hundred and fifty.

- NURSE: Two hundred and fifty ready.
- Clear.

Come on. Three hundred.

- NURSE: Three-hundred ready.
- Clear.

DOCTOR: He's gone.

I don't know what to tell you.

It's over 100 degrees out there.

This guy grabs me with his hands,
and he's ice-cold.

DOCTOR: Apart from his
obvious external wounds,

everything is out of alignment.

Even his veins are out of alignment.

Now, wait, look at the heart.

The aorta doesn't line up.

Now the spine...

Same thing, same shift,

right across the third vertebrae.

This guy looks like a paper doll

got cut up and pasted back together.

No wallet, no ID.

Just... Just this thing around his neck.

Geez.

It says ITC on it, so we gave them a call.

That's the big outfit out in the desert.

Yeah, sure, they're our
biggest contributors.

Excuse me, Gentlemen.

Frank Gordon, ITC.

I'm here to pick up Vince Taub's body.

Oh, uh, Mr. Gordon, I'm Dr. Cova.

I'll take care
of that paperwork right away.

Thank you.

Vincent Taub, huh?

Ah.

That's Vinnie's good luck charm.

Thank you so much, Sheriff.

Pretty sad when your time comes

and there's no one out there to claim you

but your employer.

- Excuse me, Sheriff.
- Certainly.

Gordon.

No, no, no, I'm picking up the body
right now, Robert.

DONIGER: Was he alone,
or was he with Decker?

GORDON: Taub's the only one here.

Get the body out of there.

And whatever X-rays
and records they have.

Get everything, okay?
Will it be a problem?

No, there's no problem.

They've been very accommodating.

If this gets out, ITC is ruined.

Any idea how
the hell he ended up in the desert?

I don't know. Maybe...

Maybe he used his marker
without enough clearance.

It could be one of a million things.

Not too bright.

He's dead, Robert.

Taub is dead.

SHERIFF: Oh, Mr. Gordon, by the way,

what's Castlegard?

I heard that's the only word the guy said.

Castlegard.

Huh.

Sounds like an amusement park.

PROFESSOR: Listen up, class.

April 4, 1357, Castlegard, France.

The English army
in the nice red uniforms

occupied the village of Castlegard.

The French, meanwhile, were advancing,

trying to drive them out
of there in this direction,

over the river, past the monastery,

and up and over to the heights here.

Just leave it, Chris, that's fine,
before you wreck the place.

The English army, meanwhile,

had retreated to Castle La Roque.

Well-fortified, very strong,
very well-supplied,

and both sides had settled in
for a long siege.

MAREK: The French were
trying to push the English

out of France for 100 years.

Lord Oliver, he tries
to take the fight out of the French.

Now, he has a prisoner, a woman.

A woman of class
and a woman of nobility.

Commander Arnaut's sister, Lady Claire.

Now, during the battle,

he hangs her from the battlements,

for all of the French forces to see.

Now, instead of
demoralizing the French...

No, no, no. It whips them into a frenzy,

and they attack the castle like madmen,

and they overpower
the English with sheer passion.

So, the fortress of La Roque
fell in one night

because of the death of one woman.

Lady Claire.

All right, folks,

that's enough of the academics for today.

Time to go and get your hands dirty.

- Hi, Chris.
- Hello, Chris.

Hey, Dad. I got Marek's clippers for you.

Ah, Chris, great, thanks.

Here hold that, will ya?

- Yeah.
- Thanks.

You can move it around if you like.

Hey, I thought
this was going to be a routine trip.

It is.

Come on, last time
you cut off your beard,

I think you sold the house

and we moved to Kentucky for a year.

Aye, your mother wanted
a change of scenery.

How does this
always end up happening to me?

Because I am older
and very much wiser than you.

- Have a beer.
- All right.

- You are a very hard worker.
- Thank you.

No, come on,
I know something is going on, though.

I mean, the beard's coming off,

so what's really happening?

Mmm...

It's these amazing finds
we've been making.

Doniger's been giving us
too many tips, you know.

He's a lucky zillionaire, Pops.

Nobody's that lucky, not even me.

He knows something he's not saying.

Something isn't right about this.

And he's been ducking me.

I'm going to get down there,
get a few answers.

Maybe even scrounge
a couple of bucks from him.

There, put that in my bag, would you?

- Yeah.
- And don't wrinkle it.

And listen, I would appreciate it
if you don't tell anybody about this,

especially Kate.

Why would I tell Kate?

Here.

Have a wee run around that, would you?

""Why wouldn't I tell Kate?"

You come to see me twice a year.

You stay until you're bored to distraction.

I think the record is three weeks.

Well, maybe I'm just
really beginning to enjoy archeology.

Ha! This from a boy

who hated Easter
because he had to find the eggs!

Yeah, because you buried the eggs.

That's beside the point.

You're still here because of Kate.

Chris.

Look, son,

I love you.

But you're scorching my shirt.

Oh, sorry.

You and Kate are from different worlds,

and you saw how that turned out
between your mother and me.

Yeah, but... Dad, no offense,

I'm not like you.

But Kate is.

Trust me.

If it's between archeology and you,

you'll lose.

Oh, shit!

- Sorry. Oh...
- I'm sorry.

I brought you a beer.

- That's so sweet...
- Half a beer, anyways.

Half a beer.

What do you got going on here?

Oh. These are the stairs.

- The ones you were talking about?
- Yeah.

Where do you figure they go?

Well, you know, right now,
they don't go anywhere

but, uh, one day, they're going to
lead me to my tunnel

which is going
to go all the way to La Roque.

Oh. What do you say I help you out?

Just show me what to do.

You, no...

I thought you hated this stuff.

No, I don't hate it.

Let's have a beer. I need a break.

- Oh...
- Oh! There you go.

- You got a full one.
- Oh, sweet of you.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

So, uh, do you think you're going to
follow in your father's footsteps?

No.

No.

No way.

Actually, I'm not
really all that interested in the past.

No?

What are you interested in, then?

Yeah, I think I already know

the answer to that question.

I've been hoping that you'd notice.

I've been hoping
you'd quit hoping I'd notice.

So there's nothing there?

Chris, you're the boss' son.

So there is something there?

It's late.
I think I'll call it a night.

I'll just start on this tomorrow,
but thanks for the beer.

Haven't been practicing, have you?

Oh, well, you know,
I'm not getting any younger.

But man, do you love this stuff!

It's a habit I can't quite kick.

Here, let me take that thing from you

before you cut something off
you'll need later on.

So, um, talking about love,

how did it go last night?

Uh... It didn't.

So how does it feel being passed over

- for 600-year-old ruins?
- It sucks.

It sucks big time.

I don't understand you guys.
You all live in the past.

What?

You know what the past is to me?

What? What's the past to you?

The past is why my parents split up.

The past is basically
what I've been force-fed

ever since I was a little kid.

I mean, none of you
archeologists looks to the future.

What are you talking about? I mean,
what is the... What is the future,

but just more of the same, you know?

More bloody gadgets,

more machines
like that thing you rode up on?

It's... The past
is where it's at. You know, I mean...

The people then,
they cared about each other, they...

Men had honor, you know?

No, no, you see,
you know what that is to me?

What?

Just more of that romantic warrior crap.

Romantic?

You want to see romantic, follow me.

Come on. Come on.

Well, what do you got?

Oh, wow, another stone
sticking out of the ground.

Talk about stone sticking out
of the ground...

No, it's a 600-year-old
sarcophagus, right?

With a French knight and his lady.

Look, isn't she beautiful?

Oh, yeah, she's a real knockout.

MAREK: Funny.

Now, look, another thing,
down here, they're holding hands.

Now, that's incredibly unusual
for that period.

That is kind of unusual, huh?

Yeah.

Oh God, here, over here.

Now, this knight, he's only got one ear.

I mean, what happened there?

What are you talking about one ear?

He's probably just...
That piece is missing.

It's probably somewhere here in the dirt.

Don't talk about a piece is missing.

I'm the archeologist here, okay?

- It was carved that way.
- All right, fair enough.

- Trust me, all right?
- Fair enough.

So who do you think they were, anyways?

So, why would somebody that doesn't
give a shit be concerned with that?

Because I'm intrigued, all right?

- See!
- That's what you wanted to hear, huh??

Yeah, absolutely. And it's true.

I mean, we're all intrigued by this.

That's why we're all here.
I mean, it's not just about...

It's not just about the rocks
and the rubble.

You know, it's about these people.

I mean, who were they?

- And what were their stories?
- Right.

It helps us to understand
where we came from.

Or where we're going.

You know what I like to say, don't you?

No, I know, I know.
You make your own history.

- Do I say it that often?
- Yeah, all the time.

Well, whoever they were,

they made theirs...

Together.

Best just to go really, really slow,

because it's better to be cautious.

- Mmm-hmm.
- Uh...

Hurry up!

Cave-in at the monastery!

Cave-in at the monastery!

MAN 1: They were standing there

and the floor, it gave way
right underneath my feet.

How long has it been open to the air?

It's been 15 minutes.

MAN 2: We've got five minutes
before oxygen contamination.

KATE: Okay, we got to go. Let's move it.

Whoa, Marek, it's right under
where I was working.

CHRIS: Kate, I don't know about this.

MAREK: Can everybody listen up?

Let's be careful. We got that?

MAREK: I've got your back. Be safe.

- Whoo!
- Who's going in first?

- Who's going down first?
- I'm going down first.

On belay on Kate!

You guys got me?
Okay, take me down nice and slow.

- Hey, slowly.
- Marek, give me a radio check.

KATE: Okay, one, two. One, two.

- Do you read me?
- Yeah, we're good.

CHRIS: All right, that's good.
Just keep it steady.

KATE: Okay. STERN: Lower Kate down!

- Lower me down.
- KATE: Easy, guys!

Nice and slow. Nice and slow.

I'm getting close to the first level.

- Easy.
- MAREK: Let me down, guys.

CHRIS: Let's get a little more on Marek!

KATE: Smell this damp air.

Kate, be careful down there.

KATE: I'm down.

Oh, my God, this is right below
where I was working.

CHRIS: Hey, Kate, you all right?
What's going on down there?

KATE: All right? All right is not the word.

MAREK: Two, one...

KATE: Just give me some slack
on the rope.

CHRIS: More slack.

Come on, come on, guys.

- Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
- MAREK: This is unbelievable.

We are the first people in this room
for 600 years.

These...

These...

Are beautiful.

KATE: Chris, you won't
believe the condition of these...

MAREK: Kate, Kate.

What do you got?

Come here. No way.

This is too much.

- Oh, my God.
- What? What is it?

- Oh, my God.
- What is it? What have you got?

Kate, we've got an old document box.

We've got an oilskin with, uh,
documents inside.

Look at the condition of this thing.

Okay, just...
Let's just be really... Really careful.

Quick, quick. Get the bag.

I can't believe this.

That is going to be

- such a find.
- Careful, careful, careful, careful.

Let's get this back up.

Kate, hit the light for a minute.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Wow.

- Oh, man.
- Give me the light. Give me the light.

What kind of...

- Oh, it's amazing.
- Son of a bitch

would deliberately
damage something so...

So beautiful.

Obviously not an archeologist.

Let's get out of here... Let's go, let's go.

Okay, let's go.

Guys, we're coming up!

Pull up, come on!

Okay, we want to go up quick, okay?

MAREK: Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Here, hold this.

What are you doing, Marek? Marek?

MAREK: It's okay.
KATE: What are you doing?

It's definitely a modern-day bifocal lens.

STERN: I know.

And bifocals weren't invented
until the mid-1700s.

KATE: What are you talking about?

- The hole only opened up today, Stern.
- Yeah.

There's definitely been nobody

down in that chamber before Kate and I.

And if you think that's weird,
you're going to love this.

What is this?

It's one of the documents
you found in the hole today.

- Oh, really?
- It's basically just a simple list

of the things that were stored in there.
Nothing special.

And then I found this. Look.

MAREK: The professor?

"Help me"?

"E.A. Johnston."

"4/2/1357."

- 1357...
- E.A. Johnston.

I cross-matched the signatures.

It's definitely his handwriting.

But he's only been gone for two days.

I mean, your father wrote that,

- but he wrote it 600 years ago.
- What's going on here?

STERN: Francois is looking
for his spare pair right now.

I'm going to see if the prescriptions
match up as well.

Okay, so you're telling me
this is the professor's

- and it's 600 years old.
- No, no, no, that's not...

- Wait a minute!
- Wait a minute! Stern, Stern...

- Stern, what have you been smoking?
- Maybe you can explain

- something to me.
- STERN: If I knew, I could explain it.

All I know is, is that the ink
is 600 years old.

You know what? I know, I know.

- KATE: Okay, what?
- This is my father.

This is him. He's just playing a prank,
that's all this is.

- No. No.
- No, no! No, no, no!

- Chris, he would never do that!
- There's no way your father would risk

contaminating this site as a joke.

- He just wouldn't do that.
- Stern, did you carbon date the ink?

Of course I carbon-dated the ink.

There's got to be another reason for this.

I did it three times. Look.

STERN: Like I just said,

your father wrote that note,

but he wrote it 600 years ago.

CHRIS: I don't care about ITC's policies.

I'm his son and I want to talk to him now.

Stern! Stern!

I found the professor's
glasses on his desk.

- It's a perfect match. Look.
- Let's see.

Whoa. Okay, I think we should

do an optical test, though, right?
Just to make sure.

- Oh, that is impossible.
- No, hey, you know what?

I'm sick of this runaround.

Now, either somebody tell me
where Professor Johnston is,

or I'm going to have to report
a kidnapping to the authorities.

Have I made myself clear?

All right, just tell us when and where.

What is it?

Doniger is sending a plane for us.

Are we going to New Mexico?

- Let's, uh... Let's pack up, guys.
- Let's go.

Good morning! I'm Steven Kramer, ITC.

Welcome to ITC. This is Frank Gordon,

- head of security.
- GORDON: Hi, how are you?

- CHRIS: Where's my dad?
- Steven Kramer.

This way. You'll see
your dad quite shortly.

Kate Ericson.

- Where's Doniger at?
- How was your flight?

Doniger's waiting inside.

Mr. Kramer will explain everything
as we walk in.

Mr. Kramer, tell me this.

How come we have
a 600-year-old document

with the professor's handwriting on it?

Pleading for help.

KRAMER: I'll explain everything

as soon as we get through security.

KRAMER: ITC is constantly
advancing itself in science.

- Marek?
- Thank you. Thirty years ago,

the business world was revolutionized

with the advent of a machine

that could instantly send documents
anywhere in the world

- at the push of a button.
- Johnston and Ericson.

Mr. Doniger's vision was to do the same
with three-dimensional objects.

What do you mean,
like a fax or something?

- Exactly.
- Wait, wait, wait, wait.

He's trying to send actual objects
from one place to another.

That's correct. Follow me, please.

Yeah, but that's also impossible.

He would need a quantum computer,
millions of processors...

KRAMER: You're right,
and we used them to build a machine

that could actually fax
three-dimensional objects.

I'll explain these mirrors later.

I know it sounds crazy,

but it would put
FedEx and UPS out of business.

But you actually made it work?

- Yes.
- KATE: That's got to be a joke.

Across the room.

But we wanted
to send things across continents,

not just across a room,
so we built a bigger machine.

This is the prototype.

The prototype, sir?

You mean that thing
that we just passed...

- Exactly. Yes.
- Is the real thing.

And we gave it 1,000 times more power.

Then we tried to send something
from our lab

here in New Mexico

to a twin machine
at a lab in New York City.

Now here's the interesting part.

The package
never arrived at its destination.

A few hours later,
it just suddenly showed up back here.

- What?
- What? Wait a minute.

So, if it went missing between
New Mexico and New York, where...

Where did it go in the meantime?

We asked the same question.
We didn't know.

So we sent out a camera,
over and over again.

And we got back photos
of the same location.

A hillside with trees.

And that's when Mr. Doniger

made the brilliant decision

to point the camera straight up.

So, once we cross-referenced
star charts to the horizon,

we realized that the camera was not
only in the wrong place,

but it was in the wrong time.

So what does that mean?

It means the camera
was taking photographs

of a wilderness near Castlegard, France,
in the year 1357.

So, wait, what you're saying is,

is that you accidentally
discovered time travel.

No, Mr. Stern,
we accidentally discovered a wormhole.

A wormhole that seems to be locked

to a single time and place in the past.

1357, Castlegard.

So, what does that mean?
You faxed my father's glasses

and documents back
to the 14th century?

DONIGER: No, Chris.

Your father, is in the 14th century.

What?

DONIGER: We need you all
to help get him back.

KRAMER: Mr. Robert Doniger.
STERN: This doesn't make any sense.

A wormhole's one of the most
volatile forces in the universe.

You can't possibly
send a person through one.

Yeah, and you can't fit a piece of paper
through a telephone wire.

But you can send a fax.

Yeah, sure, once you've
broken the message

into a stream of electrons, but...

Oh, shit.

Now, look,
I...

Personally, I don't care
about the hows or the whys.

What I do care about is my father.

Now, did he know about all this or...

I thought we could help each other.

We give him hints
about the best excavation areas,

and he could, uh, hopefully discover

why we're locked
into this particular place in time.

So, this is why you've
been funding our dig.

DONIGER: He was more astute
than I thought.

We gave him one too many clues
and he became suspicious.

Very, very suspicious.

How could you send him back there?

God knows where he is,
whether he's all right, or...

Oh, he's a very persuasive man.

He insisted on going.

Yeah. Now he's stuck back there.

Well, that's where you all come in.

Do we look like quantum
wormhole specialists?

- No.
- FRANCOIS: Mr. Doniger,

you sent the professor
to the Hundred Year War.

KATE: That's right.

Those are turbulent times
you sent him to.

Look, we need cultural experts,
not scientists.

My people simply
don't know about the medieval world

or how to mingle with the locals,

which is what we're going to have to do,

if we're going to find the professor
and bring him back.

So, we're going to bring him back.

It's that simple. We just, um,

step on that machine out there

and just whiz back to 1357
to get the professor?

Only once he's broken us
into a stream of electrons.

Why should we just do what you ask us?

Yeah, I think we need to know
a little more...

Look, I know you have a lot of questions.

- I know, I know, I know.
- Yeah, a lot of questions.

But the professor's
already been gone for 72 hours,

and every minute
we leave him back there,

it's gonna be more difficult to find him.

That's true.

Bob? Excuse me, folks.

I need to get them to the prep room
and change if they're going to go.

DONIGER: Frank... GORDON: Yes?

- DONIGER: Could you change with them?
- Oh, I'm not going.

- I've got Gomez and Baretto...
- We really need to think about this...

Oh. Good. But I'd
really like you along with this group.

KATE: We didn't say we were going.

GORDON: Steve, can you bring them
to prep, please?

STEVE: Oh, yeah, sure. Folks, this way.

GORDON: Thank you.
Please, this way. Thank you.

Just follow Steve, he'll take you to
the prep room. Thank you so much.

Bob, look, Gomez and Baretto
are my two best men.

They can handle any situation.
I would prefer not going.

I really want you to go.

And if you see Decker,
you know what to do.

- KRAMER: Robert...
- Shh.

You know, that was a really
great speech you made.

I almost believed it myself.
But didn't you forget something?

What?

Oh, come on, Robert.
Look at Taub's MRI's.

Look at his arteries.

Come on, this was his tenth trip.
This is their first trip.

Their only trip.

So you don't think that
they deserve to know

that we don't even know
how he ended up in the desert?

You don't think they
deserve to know that?

I've told them enough.

How did my father get
stuck back there, anyway?

Doniger gave him an hour.

Things got hairy, I lost him in the woods.

- So you left him there.
- Look, dude, we have a limited time.

I had to come back
or we'd both be stuck.

Well, and I guess
it's better him than you, right?

All right, everybody, listen up.

There's a few things
we have to go over before we leave.

First of all, these people
need your vital data.

It's for your return process.

Secondly, I need you
to change from your clothes

into those clothes over there.

- MAREK: Just take anything?
- Anything you want.

Put your personals
in the lockers over there.

And lastly, I want to introduce you
to two friends of mine.

- Marek, Bill Baretto, Jimmy Gomez.
- Hi.

They're coming with us.
Couple buddies of mine from the marines.

- Served under my command.
- Why do we need marines?

Boys, I'll see you back downstairs.

Uh, just in case something goes wrong,

I like to have all my bases covered.

All right, everybody, let's change up.
Let's get moving.

STERN: I can't believe that you're even

- considering doing this!
- Hey, I'm going.

STERN: Do you understand
what this machine does?

It takes you and strips you down
to a molecular level.

Which means, for a moment,
you actually cease to exist.

Listen to him, okay? He's got a point.

Hold on, hold on! Wait a second!

He's right. I don't need you, Ms. Ericson.

I don't need you, Chris.

I need you, Mr. Marek,
because you know the layout.

Hey, Gordon, nobody knows the layout
like I do. I'm going.

Yeah, and there's no way
I'm not going, pal.

I just said I'm not going,
so don't touch me!

Whoa, whoa!

Thanks.

Stern, we don't need you back there.

You're a physicist.
Your knowledge won't help us.

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- That's cool.

But we are going to need you, Francois.

Wait a minute. Now, wait a minute.
Why do we need him?

Because he speaks French fluently.

He's right.

And her high-school French
pretty much sucks.

- You're right. It does.
- STERN: Don't pressure him into this.

- I'll cover your back, okay?
- Marek, don't pressure him.

Francois, you have to make
your own decision on this.

Your father would've done it for me.

So, yes, I'll come.

- Okay?
- Yes.

- I'll come.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

MAN 1:
Magnetic coils ready.

WOMAN:
Verifying now.

MAN 1: Platform up.

MAN 2: The mirrors are up, Mr. Doniger.

Tell Gordon we got to get going.

MAN 1: Just a few minutes.

GORDON: Keep a couple of beers
cold for me, all right?

Oh, Mr. Stern.

Watch our backs, okay?

It's going to be all right, Josh.

We'll be back before you know it.

Take it easy, bro.

Here's the 50 bucks I owe you.

GORDON: All right people, let's move it.

Frank, six hours,
and the clock is running.

Thanks, Steven.

These are your personal markers.

You wear them around your neck.

You can use any one of them
to call for your return

at any time.

Frank will explain the intricacies

of how they work once you arrive.

Most importantly,
one marker will bring all of you back.

Do not lose them.

What about protection? Weapons?

Nothing modern goes back,
especially weapons.

The markers are set
for a six-hour countdown.

What do you mean "countdown"?

In other words,
they burn out after six hours.

And then...

Don't worry, Francois,
I'll get you back before you know it.

Oh.

Sorry, Francois,
they don't have these back then.

Oh, no, no, you know,
I don't see without my...

You'll be fine, that's where we
goofed up with the professor.

I feel, uh, morally
compelled to inform you

that there is apparently a degree of pain.

I'm told it's rather intense,
but extremely fleeting.

A couple of seconds,
no residual discomfort.

So, uh, forgive me.

I didn't want that
to influence your decision.

Okay. Good luck.

Let's do it.

You all look great, by the way.

Ms. Ericson, you look divine.

- Thanks.
- Good luck.

KRAMER: Don't worry about it.
Chris, you're going to find him.

You guys'll be home for lunch.

- GORDON: All right, here we go.
- Watch your step, sir.

GORDON: Everybody be careful.

KRAMER: This is a fantastic
thing for an archeologist.

CHRIS: I can't believe we're doing this.

GORDON: Everybody, slowly,
there are no railings.

Josh, come on down and watch.

KATE: Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

GORDON: Take your place
around the perimeter.

Everybody spread out.
How are we doing?

Take a deep breath.

Relax into this, we'll be back before
you know it. All right?

Okay, how are we set?

Come in, come in, Josh, close the door.

- Good luck.
- MAN: Six hours and counting.

GORDON: Mr. Marek? Mr. Marek?

I need you to take your position, all right?

How's everybody doing?

What the hell are we doing?

We're getting the chance of a lifetime.

GOMEZ: Listen,
there's nothing to worry about.

We're here to take care of you, all right?

BARETTO: Just relax.
Everything will be fine.

DNA streams, locked in.

Thank you. Okay, lock them in, Bruce.

Locking in.

STERN: How long does it take?
DONIGER: A couple of seconds.

Watch it here.

Mirrors locked.

Son of a...

Where is he? Francois?

- KATE: You all right?
- Where's Francois!

- Where's Francois!
- Francois!

- Francois!
- There he is!

Now we wait.

Francois!

KATE: Try to hold on! Hold on!

Hold on! Hold on!

- KATE: Here, take my hand.
- You all right?

Yeah. Yeah.

- You all right?
- You all right?

- Everybody all right?
- KATE: You okay?

That was a close one.

All right, let's head up this hill.

Come on, everybody follow me up.

MAREK: Hell of a stop.

GORDON: We've always
arrived on land.

Gordon, is this it?

- Yeah, I think so.
- Is it?

CHRIS: You think so?
Are we in 1357 France or...

I mean, this could be my grandparents'
house in Oregon.

- Gordon, where are we?
- Shut up.

Trust me, we're in 1357 France.

Well, if this is France, I'm home. Huh?

Come on, let's go.

Oh, let me explain the markers to you.

Press your thumbnail
in here, it shows the remaining time.

Squeeze, and it takes you home.

- But don't squeeze it.
- Why?

"Cause we haven't found his dad yet.
One last thing...

He said, "hide."

Everyone, hide.

All right, everybody, take cover.
Let's go, move, now.

MAREK: Let's hide.

Francois, come on.

KNIGHT 1: Well done, Sir De Kere.

- After him.
- KNIGHT 2: Yes, my lord.

- Get the others, find out who they are.
- KNIGHT 3: Yes, Sir De Kere.

KATE: Come on, quick.

KATE: Oh, God, Baretto.

Robert, we've got a field buck.

- What?
- They're coming back.

- STERN: Oh, my God.
- Get a medic up here.

Get a medic up here!

- What was that? What was that?
- What?

KRAMER: What is that?

- A grenade! That's a grenade!
- Get down!

Oh, my God, he's left.

Get down, he'll see you.
Get down, get down.

Yo! Over here!

Let's go. Come on, come on.

All right, let's go.

Come on. Chris?

Kate.

Marek. Hey.

Where's my boys? Where's Marek?

The guard came... After Baretto take...

Arrows and... He pressed his marker...

- His marker, he's gone.
- Wait, wait, wait...

Baretto took two arrows.

And he must've hit his marker
'cause he disappeared.

Where's Gomez?

- I don't know.
- I didn't see him.

What?

Oh, my God.

Don't look.

What are you doing?

Oh, shit. I can't find his marker.

You're looking for his marker? He's dead.

Francois, what are you doing?

I'm getting us the hell out of here.

No, no, no, no.
We're not going anywhere.

No, please, we can't save anyone
if we're dead.

Keep it quiet, keep it quiet.

- Look, Francois, you can't do that.
- Why not?

Because you need
40 feet of clearance around all sides

to make that work. All right?

What do you mean?

Look, I was trying to tell you. Now, look,

don't lose these markers,
they're very precious now.

And if you follow my lead,
I will get your dad

and I'll get you home. I promise, okay?

- Okay?
- Francois, it's going to be okay, okay?

- Now let's find Marek. Let's go.
- What about Gomez?

We can't do anything about him now.

- Come on.
- Come on, let's go.

We got to go. Look at me.

GORDON: Francois, come on.

Shh!

- Quiet. The soldiers.
- Allez.

You passed us in the woods.

It's okay. It's okay.

We've lost the trail.

DE KERE: Damn it!

- Try to pick it up again.
- KNIGHT: Yes, Sir De Kere.

DE KERE: Search down by the river.

Jesus, you're a girl.

Shh, it's okay.

DE KERE: After the French bastards!

After them! Leave none living!

Careful.

- Ah, there you are.
- No!

Come here!

Help! Help!

_Allez.

Allez. Vite.

KRAMER: Shut it off!

He knew not to take
anything modern back.

DONIGER: That son of a bitch brought
a grenade back with him.

I can't believe it.

Coils, the coils.

Damn it, he knew the regulations,
no modern weapons!

Well?

His marker.

What happened to the rest of them?

MAN: Get a medic over here!

- Don't know.
- KRAMER: Give me your gloves.

Well, did anyone try
to come back with him?

I don't know. I know as much
as you, okay? Hang on.

Well, what if they're trying to
come back right now?

It's obviously not going to happen.

Let's not jump to conclusions. Kramer!

But you can't leave
seven people stuck back there!

- Just tell me you have a backup plan.
- Shut up!

I don't know. I don't know.

Please tell me you have a backup plan.

Yes, we have a backup plan.

GORDON: Go!

MAREK: Gordon, Gordon!

Marek! Chris.

Gordon, this French woman
will lead us to Castlegard.

Great, that's great. Let's go. Come on.

MAREK: Wow.

The village of Castlegard.

We're here.

FRANCOIS: Where is everyone going?

Hold on a second. What day is this?

FRANCOIS: Merde. Marek...

It's the 4th of April.

- Of course it is, it's April 4...
- 1357.

The day La Roque falls?

Wait, wait, wait.
What are you talking about?

- You son of a bitch, Gordon.
- Excuse me?

You brought us back
on the day the French attack.

By tonight, this whole place
is going to be burned to the ground.

Well, pal, then I suggest you stop
with the history lessons

and start looking for the professor.
Now follow me.

Let's go.

STERN: I'm a physicist.

Give me something to do. I can help.

You might as well be a pharmacist for
all the use you are.

Good one, Robert.

MAN: Replacement panels
are on the way down.

- Great!
- How long is this going to take?

Five hours and 27 minutes.

Five hours...
How the... How the hell do you know

it's only going to take
five hours and 27 minutes?

'Cause that's all the time we have.

Once this platform is fixed,

even if the markers have run out,

we can still send someone else back
to get them, right?

Josh, the only thing holding
the wormhole open is their markers.

Yeah, but you've opened and closed this
wormhole dozens of times before.

- Once the platform is...
- Look, look, we...

We don't even know what we did

to link us to this particular wormhole.
Okay?

It could have been a lucky calibration,
a chance impurity in the coils.

The point is, the grenade
probably destroyed

any possibility we have of recreating it.

So, are you saying that
once their markers expire,

they could be stuck there forever?

- Is that what you're saying?
- They could be.

Guys, come on.

Come on, come on, come on.
Come on, this way.

MAN 1: Castle La Roque
awaits its soldiers.

MAN 2: Hold the horse, will you?

- The manor house. Ah.
- KATE: Look at that.

- I can't believe it. We were just...
- That's outrageous.

That's Castlegard all right.

It's different. It's totally different.

I mean, that right section,
I had totally wrong.

Where did that tower come from?

What if my dad's in there?

Yeah, you're right.

How are we going to get in?

Guys, soldiers coming.

- SOLDIER 1: You there!
- Come on, let's go.

Why aren't you packing up?

GORDON: Come on. Run!

Halt! Stop!

GORDON: Go, go, go, go.

SOLDIER 2: Don't let them get away.

No, no, no.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

SOLDIER 3: Get that horse
out of the way.

MAN: My lord!

Pick him up!

Come on, my friend.

Who are they?

We captured them in the village, my lord.

I'm Lord Oliver.

Who speaks for you?

I do, my lord.

You speak strangely.

Yes, we are, uh, Scottish, my lord.

Scottish?

You've come to kill us all in our beds?

Hey!

MAN: Whoa, whoa, whoal!

First the old man, and now this group?

Why do the Scottish
suddenly find this village so pleasing?

It must be your lord's
kind manners, my lord.

Indeed it must. My lady.

I beg your pardon, my lord.

Let him speak.

My lord, the old man you spoke of...

Edward De Johns.

He claims he's a magister.

Do you know of him?

He's our master, sir.

All is well with him?

He said he was alone.

We were several days behind him.

He does not know we are here.

Who are you?

Yes, you. The one whose head
is touching the ceiling.

Francois, my lord.

A Frenchman.

Oh, please, please.

We're all gentlemen here.

He's our interpreter, sir.

Forgive them.
I am at war with the French

as well as the Scottish.

Have I forgotten anyone?

The Spaniards... Am I at war with them?

Arnaut has sent
many spies into my midst.

Your honor, he's not a spy.

No?

- He's our friend.
- I am sure he is.

He's too tall to be a spy, anyway.

Ah.

Interpret.

Be quiet.

Interpret.

Illlm a Spy_"

I'm sorry, I... I didn't quite catch that.

- It means...
- Be quiet, Francois.

"I am a spy."

OLIVER: My God, it's a miracle.
A quiet Frenchman.

- Did you hear that?
- MEN: No.

Louder, boy! Come on!

I am a spy.

Ah.

I thought so.

Oh, my God.

OLIVER: Get rid of the Frenchman.

Put the others with the old man.
We may need them later.

Who's next?

No, Chris!

Don't do it.

Oh, Francois. Francois.

MAN: Inside!

- Move it! Move it!
- Hey, don't push me!

CHRIS: Hey, leave her alone!

MAREK: All right! Hold on.

CHRIS: Over here. Andre. This way.
MAREK: Go ahead, go ahead.

Come on.

CHRIS: My marker.
Guys, I lost my marker.

MAREK: Don't worry.
We only need one marker to get home.

CHRIS: This can't be happening.

MAREK: Careful with
the rest of them, okay?

MAREK: Those bastards killed Francois.

Professor.

Professor.

- Kate?
- Yeah.

Kate?

- Oh, my God, Kate.
- Are you all right?

Oh, my God, you got my message.

Chris, your dad.

Chris is here, and Marek's here.

CHRIS: Dad.

Oh, son.

- Dad!
- Chris. My son.

- I'm glad you're still alive.
- Oh, God.

What happened?

You've lost such blood.

It's not my blood.

It's Francois'.

He's dead.

GORDON: Oliver had him killed
because he's French.

KATE: This guy had a sword
and he just... He put it...

Professor, what happened?

I was trying to avoid the English,

but they found me in the monastery.

I managed to convince Oliver
I was a magister on my way to Dublin.

All right, I skipped Shakespeare.
What the hell's a magister?

It's a scientist.

He accused me of being a spy.

How did you survive, then?

I promised Oliver a new weapon.

A weapon? What kind of weapon?

A liquid fire so intense
that even water couldn't harm it.

Greek fire? You...

You promised him Greek fire?

I'm sorry, have you considered
what you might have done here?

You've just given the English a serious
advantage in this battle

and they're supposed to lose the war.

- I was alonel!
- Shh!

- KATE: Everybody shut up!
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

You're right.

The point is, when these guys come here

and take us up to La Roque,

when they seal that place off for battle,

there's no escape.
We're as good as dead.

No. No, we gotta get out of here now.

Wait, wait, wait. Remember that field

- where the peasant huts were? Right?
- MAREK: Yeah.

Okay, that's the closest place
with enough room

to use the marker. Right?

Now the problem is,
how the hell do we get there?

Well, if we do,
we're going to have to do it fast.

We've got four hours.

Well, four hours is plenty.

The way I see it, we got what?

We got 650 years
of knowledge on these guys?

If we put our heads together,
there's no reason

why we shouldn't be able to
get out of here and home in 20 minutes.

Okay, let's go.

Let's find a way out. Let's look around.

Hey, guys, there's a hole here
big enough to climb through.

MAN: Quiet!

- Shh...
- Okay, all right?

MAN: She was with the group
we fought earlier, my lord.

OLIVER: May I ask why
you're trespassing on my land?

- Cochon. Dirty pig!
- Come, come.

- What do you think you're doing?
- Okay, here's what

I'm going to do.
I'm going to scale down the wall.

Then, when it's clear,
I'm going to let you guys out.

KATE: All right? CHRIS: No, you're not.

You're not going anywhere.

Why? 'Cause I'm...

Marek, Marek, I am...

I am the best climber.
I am the best climber.

Shh-shh. She's right.

If anybody should be going,
it should be me,

but those roof slats won't hold me,
or you, or you, Chris.

- No, no... Wait, wait.
- That is right.

But they might hold you, Kate.

Now, look, Kate, this isn't a game.

Are you prepared to take a life?

I'll do what I have to do.

No, there's no way.

You're not going anywhere.

It's going to be all right, okay?

There's one thing worse than dying here.

And that's living here.

I refuse to do either.

- I'm going. It's okay.
- She's right.

Okay.

Kate...

Please, please take care.

Hey, it's easy.
It's going to be easy. All right.

Hey, Chris.

Chris, I need your help. Come on.

Come on. Now, you just hold that back.

Keep it open.

All right?

CHRIS: Kate, be careful.

- Okay, here I go.
- What do you see?

There's guards down there.
I'm going to go up and over, okay?

There's a window on the other side.

CHRIS: Okay, watch yourself.

GUARD 1: East quarter is clear!

GUARD 2: North quarter is clear!

CHRIS: I got you. I got you. Hold on.

Hold on. I got you. Don't let go.

Are you okay?

I got a foothold.

We're going to
pull you back in through the roof.

No. I'm good.

CHRIS: Okay. Please, be careful.

I got to keep going.

KNIGHT: You, man, gather those children!

GUARD 3: All clear on the outside.

GUARD 4: Stables are clear!

GUARD 5: Manor house is clear!

SOLDIER: We need a horse over here!

KNIGHT: Hold your line, men!
In position!

MAN: We'll try again when I get back.

- Keep them quiet.
- Mmm-hmm.

What the...

Now! Go now!

Grab a weapon!

Let's go. Chris.

Guys, hurry.

We're heading out the way we came in,
all right? Marek?

- Marek!
- Yeah, yeah.

You go ahead. I'll take the rear.

GORDON: All right, let's go!

Kate, we got to go.

Let's go, come on. Let's go!

Quiet!

You guys go ahead, okay?
I'll catch up with you.

What are you doing?

- Listen to me, Chris.
- Don't be crazy.

Come on, let's go.

I've got my marker, I'll catch up with you.

Come on.

- Where is he?
- He's going to catch up with us.

- What? No!
- He's got his marker.

Shh!

- Robert?
- Yeah.

DNA streaming should be online.

Now!

Got it!

- KRAMER: Fully functioning?
- Yep.

That's a start.

Psst! Don't move. Don't say a word.

Traitor!

Jesus.

Why didn't you listen to me?

Shit!

Ow!

For God's... Jesus!

Stop it. Stop, it's me. Stop.

What? What are you saying?

WOMAN: Ax, give me the ax and help me
get through the wall!

MAREK: What?
He's coming through the door!

Okay. Forget it. Wait, wait.

Quick, please.

Come on. There we go.

MAREK: Go!

Guards!

DE KERE: Guards!

Who is that guy?

His name is De Kere.

Come on, come on,
let's head back to the river.

DE KERE: Get more guards.

Gordon, we're not going without Marek.

I don't give a shit about Marek.

My job was to get the professor.
I got the professor.

I can't keep taking care of these people.

I lost Gomez, Baretto.
You guys are on your own, all right?

Or you follow me. Let's go!

WOMAN: To the river, vite!

Robert, we have a field buck.
Somebody's trying to come back.

DONIGER: How strong?

- It's minimal.
- What does that mean?

It means they're still alive.

Halt!

Come on.

Where is he? Where's Gordon?

Where's...

CHRIS: There he is. There he is.

Come on.

- Wait, watch it, watch it.
- Chris, drop your weapon.

CHRIS: Okay, go.

Oh, shit.

Come on, please. Come on!

Are you leaving us like you did my dad?

- What?
- You son of a...

There is no time. There is no time.

- Listen, listen. Shh!
- KATE: Shh!

They are looking. Shh! Quiet!

Kate, hit your marker.

No, you press yours.
I'm not going without Marek.

Mine's not working.
Please hit your marker.

We're not going anywhere without him.

Marek's got his own marker. Look!

CHRIS: Oh, shit.

Kate, press it. We can
come back for Marek.

- We've been here too long.
- Should I press it?

It's not working.

- PROFESSOR: Press your marker.
- It's not working.

Let me do it. I know how to do this.

- Why isn't it working, Gordon?
- I don't know,

because if it were working,
we'd be fucking home right now!

We have to get out of here. Everybody...

PROFESSOR: Let's find a place to hide.

DE KERE: Infantry, spread out!
Search the huts!

GUARD:
Search everywhere...

Oh, by the way, my name is Andre Marek.

Castlegard was your village, wasn't it?

Don't worry. You'll return there soon.

No. The English will burn it to the ground

before they move 10 La Rogue.

No, no. No, La Roque will fall, too.

Yes, but it will take many more lives

and many months of fighting
before it happens.

The French built that fortress.
We know how strong it is.

La Rogue will fall tonight.

Only a prophet

or a fool could make such a claim.

In your case, it's probably the fool.

Whichever makes you smile like that.

Are you, uh, married?

No.

We've been fighting
the English since before I was born.

There's no time for marriage.

Of course.

Are you, uh, with anyone?

- Am
with anyone?
- Yeah.

I am with you.

I know. No. What I mean is, is there...

Is there someone...

Is there someone that you see?

- Do I see?
- Yeah.

Um, nobody.

It is possible they are
hiding on the shore or in the woods.

- They could be anywhere.
- Oh, God.

You know, it's funny, but...

We're speaking the same language, but...

You don't understand
anything I'm saying, do you?

No, no, no.

WOMAN: It is good, they are French.
They can help us.

You're Lady Claire.

"Lady." I like that.

It's charming.

Madame Claire.

Fire!

Fire!

DE KERE: Find them!

I killed that man.

I got to live with that.

SOLDIER: We found them, my lord!

Kate, come on!

Come on!

Here, go inside!

Burn it.

No! No!

You can't do that!

Chris, please get out of there!

Chris! Chris! My son's in there!

Chris, get out of there!

Hold your man.

No! No!

Okay, come on.

- Come on.
- Chris, wait up.

- Come on.
- Wait up!

Claire!

Arnaut!

He says he is
very grateful to you to return his...

- You're English!
- No. I'm not English. I'm Scottish.

Arnaut, he saved the life
of one of your men.

- You're Scottish, eh?
- Yes.

In that case,

I do not know
how to express my gratitude.

Well, you can.

Just keep her close and keep her safe.

I can take care of myself.

Yes, that's obvious.

Please, do not let her
out of your sight, especially tonight.

Do not worry, she will be well-protected.

I must leave. I must return
to Castlegard to search for my friends.

I need to ask you
perhaps for a horse and a weapon.

You will not make it
back alive through the English lines.

They are moving
from the village to Castle La Roque.

We attack tonight.

No, Marek, you must not go back there.

I must at least try and find my friends.

I'm sorry.

ARNAUT: Very well.
I will give you what you ask for.

Thank you again.

Thank you.

Lady Claire.

Claire.

I wish we'd met at another time.

Andre Marek...

Are you married?

No.

Arnaut.

Arnaut's dismounted...

And he's with his sister.

Well done.

In fast, kill Arnaut and out.

And may God be with you.

All right.

I have to get inside La Roque
and find my dad.

You'll never make it
through their defenses.

Yeah, I will, I'll find a way.

There is no way. You'll get killed.

Go, go.

I don't have a choice.

Yes, you do.

There's another way.

- What? The tunnel?
- Yeah.

Kate, you never found it.
You don't even know if it exists.

There's always been a rumor.

Yeah. But that's a rumor...

And my dad's life's on the line.

All of our lives are on the line.

Look, if that tunnel ever existed,

it's going to exist now. 1357.

I know it's in that monastery, I kKnow it.

I want to save your father
as much as you do.

You'll have to trust me. I know it's there.

I know it.

You've got to trust me.

SOLDIER: Get in line!

SOLDIER: Come on! Keep the pace!

Allez!

Allez! Allez!

Claire!

Claire! Claire!

SOLDIER: Come on,
get in file. Get in file.

It's Marek!

Marek!

- Marek!
- I'm okay.

It's Chris and Kate, Marek.

What about Chris and Kate?

They didn't make it.

- They've killed them.
- What?

DECKER: It's been a while,
hasn't it, Frank?

Oh, my God.

I thought you were dead.

Right, that's why
you sent Taub to assassinate me.

No, no, not to assassinate you,
to bring you home.

To bring you back.

Right. Just like you are.

No. No. Look. Listen.

Listen to me, Bill. I need your help.

What's this?

Look...
Look, it's not working, anyway.

Says here you got
less than one-and-a-half hours left.

- It doesn't work.
- Bullshit.

Look. Look. Look. Look.

You gotta believe me, it wasn't my fault.

Okay?

I've got a family.

- Yeah?
- You've met my family.

- You got a family?
- You've been to my house.

You have a family.

I've got a family.

So did I!

- No!
- No!

No! No! No!

Oh, shit!

Oh, my God!

Last time I saw him,
he was running like hell

with his marker for an open space.

I was on the ground...
Three arrows in me.

I used to be William Decker.

ITC employee number 273. Now...

I'm Sir William De Kere,
Lord Oliver's aide-de-camp.

You looked pretty
impressive today, Marek...

For an academic.

How do you know my name?

I know all of your names.

We read every report
that came out of your dig

before we made the first trip back.

How many times have you been here?

Enough to know
transcription errors, intimately.

Transcription errors?

Doniger, that son of a bitch.

He hasn't told you a thing, has he?

What the hell are transcription errors?

Mistakes in the
DNA reconstruction process.

It's like faxing a fax.

PROFESSOR: Distortions? Mistakes?

Only, the distortions aren't in the letters.

It's body parts.

The organs.

I've gone in too many times.

I'll never survive another trip.

PROFESSOR: Oh, that... That damage?

It can be repaired. But not here,

and not in this time.

You'd have to go back.

Why don't you press the marker,
and we can all go home, Decker, huh?

My name is De Kere.

This is my home.

Lord Oliver awaits his Greek fire.

After that, your survival depends
on your knowledge of history...

How good you make me look.
I rise in favor,

so do you, I fall...

You fall.

Marek.

- Where's your marker?
- De Kere, Decker, whatever his name is,

- he took it off me.
- Oh, God.

We're friends of Edward de Johns.

Edward de Johns.

The magister?

He is my father.

The English, they have harmed him?

We don't know.
We were going to ask for your help.

KATE: Yeah, we need your help.

Oui. Here, here. Come.

KATE: We need to hurry.
We don't have much time.

Lord Oliver demands
a demonstration before nightfall.

It would be best not to miss the deadline.

Oh. They've done it.

The stuff is all there.
The stuff's a bit coarse, but it's good.

What am I talking about? I can't do this.

I can't give these people Greek fire

and influence the course of history.

I may already have done that, Prof.

What do you mean?

When we first arrived back here,

we were helped by this girl who, um,

took us up to Castlegard.

In fact, that's who I went back
to get when... When we escaped.

Well, that girl turned out
to be Lady Claire.

Arnaut's sister.

- Are you serious?
- Yeah.

And I've now delivered
her to the French for safekeeping.

She's incredibly important.

Her death rallies the French
to win the battle.

- Shh. Keep it down, okay?
- Don't you understand?

Now, we have to be
on Oliver's side just to stay alive.

Shh.

KATE: This is exactly
where I was digging.

Oh. This is it. This is the place.

- We're... We're here.
- What do you mean?

This is the chamber where...

I'm sorry, what did you say? What...

He said, "The army
of Arnaut is ready for the attack."

Then we're runnin' out of time.
We got to get out of here.

Those are the stairs. It's under here.

MAN: Hold them up here.
Closer to the wall.

There's a goodly number
of trebuchets, my lord.

OLIVER: What's a little fire
to these stone walls?

CHRIS: There's nothing down there.
KATE: This is it.

This is the chamber.
This is, uh... This, uh...

- Where the hole was. We came down here.
- There's nothing down here.

Marek would have been working there.
That means that

the box would have been...

Oh, my God, that's the...

That is the box.

It's the parchment he wrote on.

My father's glasses.

Yeah, we got to go.

No, no, no. Put it back. Put it back.
If we don't find this...

In the future, we're never going
to find your father.

Put it back.

All right, but we still got to go.

- What?
- We've got to get up to the...

No, no, another stone was damaged,
somebody had damaged it.

What kind of son of a bitch would
damage something so...

It was me.

Oh. It was me, I...

Was the son of a...

Wait! Wait! Stay back, stay back.

Watch out. Watch out.

Oh, wow.

It's the tunnel.

It's the tunnel!

Give me a torch.

Hey, give me that one.

Kate, watch out. Let me go in.

- Get Arnaut?
- Yes, get Arnaut.

Go. Please hurry, hurry.

CHRIS: Kate, get in here.

- Oh, whoa.
- You got it?

Yeah, I do.

PROFESSOR: Careful boys,
this is Greek fire.

You can blow us all to Hell here.

Smooth and easy now, no spills.

That's good.

Trebuchet!

_CHRIS: Shit!

- You okay?
- Yeah. Hurry, there's no time.

SOLDIER: Trebuchet!
OLIVER: Trebuchet! Trebuchet!

Lord Oliver, the magister
with your demonstration.

Ah, yes, yes. I'll see it now.

Don't you understand, my lord,
I've never...

Show me! Now.

Show him!

Your fire, of the Greeks.

Marek! Fire it!

MAREK: Okay, come on, let's move it.

MEN: Trebuchet!

Just fire the damn thing!

MAREK: I cannot fire it.

Fire it.

Stop, stop!

- Fire!
- Ready, fire!

Wait, wait, let me pass.

That's it?

So, you betrayed me.

You promised me Greek fire,
and this is all I get?

- Lord Oliver?
- I should have had you hung, drawn...

- Lord Oliver?
- What?

With your permission, my lord.

The more water, the more fire.

Good.

OLIVER: Better.

My God.

You are a magician, not a magister.

I want this for every cannon.

How many men will you need?

- Twenty?
- Twenty?

Give this man 20 men immediately.

As you wish, my lord.

This way. Magician.

Archers to the battlements!

SOLDIER 1: Archers to the battlements!

SOLDIER 2: Archers to the battlements!

81%. We have 81%.

No, no, no, it's over.

I'm not going to play around
with their lives like this.

We can't get 100% efficiency
from patched-together coils.

Well, what's the safest
minimum percent?

We've done successful tests at 80%.

You just said we have 81%.

They were inanimate objects, Kramer.

Reflectors... How much
time do we have?

- 28 minutes.
- 81% leaves no room for error.

- 28 minutes... Can we do it?
- They could come back deformed.

Yes, we can.

- It's too risky.
- What?

You think I'm going to
let you leave them there?

- Do you think I want to?
- I don't think you care.

At least back there, they have a chance.
They have some kind of life.

No. You lost the chance
for that decision a long time ago.

This is no longer your decision to make.

You know what? It is, and I have.

I'm sorry.

- Fire the moat.
- CAPTAIN: Yes, my lord.

Fire the moat!

Light your arrows!

CAPTAIN: Light your arrows!

Archers, prepare!

CAPTAIN: Archers, prepare!

Stretch!

CAPTAIN: Stretch!

Away!

- Night arrows.
- CAPTAIN: Night arrows!

A little surprise for the French.

CAPTAIN: Ready! OLIVER: Stretch!

CAPTAIN: Stretch! OLIVER: Away!

CAPTAIN: Fire!

KATE: We're close now.
We're close, I know it.

CHRIS: Right.

Well done, my lord.

MAN: Trebuchet!

One more of them, we become history.

Oh, no.

No.

We're going forward...

Maybe it's just...

Or we could go up.
Right? We can go up.

- Kate. Kate.
- No! Don't! No!

- No!
- Kate.

No.

Kate.

Maybe... Maybe we missed something.

Maybe we made a wrong turn.
We could have...

It's too late. It's just too late.

I said trust me

and I've let you down.

And I've let your father down, and...

I've let everybody down.

No.

Oh, God, I'm so sorry.

No, you didn't.

Kate, come here.

Kate, come here.

Come here. Come here.

Trebuchet!

CAPTAIN: Trebuchet!

Close the inner gates!

Close the inner gates!

I'm beginning to find this rather tiresome.

The courtyard is secure, my lord.

Good, but this Frenchman needs to be
put in his place. It's time.

Captain!

It is time!

KRAMER: Robert?

13 minutes left.
Let's try and get them back.

Are we going to go over all this again?

What are you doing?

What the hell do you think I'm doing?

I'm protecting our interests.

What's happened to you?

How many lives have been
lost on the cutting edge of discovery?

- It's the price we pay for greater...
- These were not astronauts!

I know!

They had no idea of the dangers.

All that work, and they
come back deformed.

You know how the media is.

They're going to twist it around
and label this a death machine!

- It has a serious flaw, Robert!
- Yeah, I know, and you'll fix it.

No, I won't.

You'll fix it like you've fixed
everything else!

- No.
- What?

- No.
- You won't?

No, I won't.

I can't believe you'd just throw away
your place in history.

I already have. We're cycling up.

You think you can just go
behind my back!

Huh?

Kramer!

Kramer?

CAPTAIN: Make the prisoner ready!

SOLDIER: What is your will, my lord?
MAREK: Back to work.

OLIVER: Secure her to the battlement!

I want to be sure
the French can see her.

SOLDIER: At once, my lord!

OLIVER: I'm going to give
your brother a choice.

Oh, shit.

OLIVER: You are to be
tied to the battlements.

What is it?

OLIVER: Either he lays down his arms,

or he kills you with his own weapons.

Let us hope a man who stoops to using
his own sister as a spy

still has some sense of decency left.

God be with you, lady.

It's her.

It's Lady Claire.

But I... I just delivered her to Arnaut
for safekeeping.

How did the English get her?

It's history.

Then history will change.

Oliver!

Release Lady Claire
and bring her down to me now,

or by God, I will destroy your arsenal!

Marek! No!

Get the hell out of here. Go on, now!

Halt!

For God's sake,

if that thing blows, it'll kill us all.

Bring her down!

No! Do not touch her!

My lord,

if he drops the torch,
he then kills her, too.

He will not do it.

Back off, De Kere, or Decker,
or whatever your name is.

I will blow your arsenal to Hell!

- There's no way out.
- You're English.

- No. No, no, we're not!
- You're English! This is a trap!

- Run, my lord!
- Marek!

- You are working for Oliver!
- No, we're not!

I will kill both of you!

Merci, mes amis.

SOLDIER: Be careful, my lord!

Archers to the battlements!

CAPTAIN: Hold the line
on the east tower!

Oliver!

Kill her! Now!

- Arnaut!
- Claire!

- Kate, come on!
- We've got to find the others.

Don't!

OLIVER: Hold your line!

Oh, Chris. You're alive!

Kate! Thank God.

KATE: Where's Marek?
We got to find Marek.

PROFESSOR: I don't know!

Wait, there's Marek. There's Marek!

It's okay, it's okay, Claire, Claire!

It's me. It's me. It's okay, it's okay.

- What are you doing?
- Open the gate, open the gate!

PROFESSOR: Chris, no!

Let me get up, I can get up.

- Can you...
- Yeah!

This is for France.

Merci. Merci.

We've got to go,
we've got to get out of here.

- Where's Marek?
- I don't know.

He went after Lady Claire.

There!

No!

My ear! My ear!

It's me!

It's me!

It's not working, it's not working.

- It's not working.
- It's broken?

- Okay.
- I've got to go get Marek.

- I've got to get Marek.
- De Kere took his.

All right, you guys go out,
run out to the field right now.

- No, not without you.
- No. Kate,

you run out to the center of the field
and you wait for us there.

I'm going to run over there
and get the other marker.

Dad, go with her. Go now.

- Listen to me. Be careful.
- I will, go!

Over here!

CHRIS: Marek! Marek!

Marek! Marek!

Chris! I thought you were dead.

Your marker, let's go.

De Kere!

De Kere has yours.

Stern!

Open this door.

Where's Kramer?

Where's Kramer?

Shit!

Take me home.

Please.

Go!

MAREK: It's working. Be careful!

Come on, let's go!

Marek! Come on! Let's go.
We've got to get the hell out of here!

We got less than a minute,
let's go home!

Marek!

CHRIS: Come on, let's go!

Let's go, Marek!
Come on, they're waiting!

Go, get the hell out of here!

No, let's go home, come on!

I am home, Chris.

Chris...

Just go.

Say goodbye for me.

I'll miss you, Marek.

Well, if you can do it, then do it.
Just one more minute.

81%, okay?

- What's he doing?
- He's heading for the coils.

- Come on!
- This is good here.

Wait!

- There he is!
- Wait!

- Where's Marek?
- He's staying!

- He's staying!
- Let's go!

Push the marker!

- Push the damn thing!
- I am.

- No!
- MAN: We're getting a field buck.

Someone's coming back right now!

No!

No.

I don't have a marker.

I'll never get home.

Yeah!

Where's Marek?

Francois?

Hey, Dad?

Yeah?

Hey.

Kate just called from the monastery dig.

She finished the excavation
on the sarcophagus,

and she wants us there right away.

- You want to drive?
- Yeah. I'll drive.

Look what I uncovered.

If Marek had come home with us,
what would be written here?

Oh, my God.

"Andre Marek..."

"With his beloved wife Claire."

Oh, my God!

"Loving parents of Catherine,

"Christophe...

"And Francois. Dear Francois."

“To my friends

"who survive me,

"I have chosen a wonderful life."

Died 1382.

Born 1971.

They made their own history.

Together.
