1
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:03,600
um

2
00:01:00,490 --> 00:01:01,490
Thank you.

3
00:01:58,960 --> 00:01:59,960
Thank you.

4
00:03:23,820 --> 00:03:27,380
I was always interested in geophysics,
but mainly as a hobby.

5
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,160
Boring lab stuff.

6
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,700
But I think there is a sort of romance
to what you do.

7
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,860
No, come on. I mean, you're in the
field.

8
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,300
A geological engineer is like an Indiana
Jones, but with rocks.

9
00:03:42,060 --> 00:03:43,400
That's really not that romantic.

10
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,100
I'm just studying the effect of climate
change on geological structures.

11
00:03:47,900 --> 00:03:50,440
I know it sounds pompous, but I just
have this real...

12
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,080
need to make a difference while I'm
still on the planet.

13
00:03:55,100 --> 00:03:56,100
No.

14
00:03:57,660 --> 00:03:59,040
That's not pompous at all.

15
00:03:59,260 --> 00:04:01,700
I'm trying to do the same thing.

16
00:04:02,020 --> 00:04:04,040
Yet with predictive algorithms.

17
00:04:04,980 --> 00:04:09,600
Yeah. Well, I was doing that, but I'm
working on a different project now.

18
00:04:10,140 --> 00:04:13,200
Yeah. You said that you had joined
another company, but you never told me

19
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,200
what it was.

20
00:04:15,180 --> 00:04:19,100
We study alternate power sources.

21
00:04:20,329 --> 00:04:21,329
It's so vague.

22
00:04:26,330 --> 00:04:32,970
How is it that someone like you isn't
already involved with someone?

23
00:04:36,790 --> 00:04:38,870
Oh, it's his job.

24
00:04:39,670 --> 00:04:42,010
It's kind of all-consuming.

25
00:04:42,970 --> 00:04:44,630
Always on call, lots of travel.

26
00:04:45,450 --> 00:04:49,350
I'm really glad you're not involved with
someone, I mean.

27
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,380
I'm glad I sat next to you at the
lecture at the Geophysics Institute.

28
00:04:55,180 --> 00:04:56,500
You know, timing is everything.

29
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:58,900
Well, here's the timing.

30
00:05:00,740 --> 00:05:02,500
It's the best month I've had in a long
time.

31
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:09,000
Is

32
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:17,440
everything

33
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,500
okay? Yeah, I'm just going to go to the
bathroom, if that's all right.

34
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,080
There it is.

35
00:05:29,100 --> 00:05:32,300
Why would the pendulum send us to an
ordinary jewelry store? If the pendulum

36
00:05:32,300 --> 00:05:35,920
sends us, we can assume that something
distinctly out of the ordinary is afoot.

37
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,000
Do you think there's some sort of
artifact in that store?

38
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:41,240
A magical gem? A King Colin's onyx? Or a
multigammer?

39
00:05:41,820 --> 00:05:42,820
Or a robbery?

40
00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:46,280
Oh, you footpads. Out of our way, fool.

41
00:05:46,620 --> 00:05:48,980
I demand to know what diabolical
articles you have in your possession.

42
00:05:50,580 --> 00:05:53,540
Put it down.

43
00:05:54,220 --> 00:05:56,040
What are you, his guardian angel?

44
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,460
As a matter of fact, I am.

45
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,120
Well, you made a big mistake.

46
00:05:59,660 --> 00:06:00,900
This is none of your business.

47
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,200
It's my business.

48
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:06,840
Who the hell are you?

49
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:08,280
I'm Red Rock.

50
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,460
And you're the one that made someone
break.

51
00:06:48,850 --> 00:06:49,850
Shall we?

52
00:07:16,590 --> 00:07:18,350
What is going on in here?

53
00:07:18,650 --> 00:07:19,650
Sorry.

54
00:07:19,970 --> 00:07:21,350
Excuse me. Thank you.

55
00:07:22,190 --> 00:07:24,010
Sorry. Had to take a call.

56
00:07:24,310 --> 00:07:25,310
No worries.

57
00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:33,310
Is this some sort of... a submission?

58
00:07:34,410 --> 00:07:35,410
Hmm?

59
00:07:38,910 --> 00:07:40,990
I am not angry. I am disappointed.

60
00:07:41,730 --> 00:07:44,390
No chaperone, no discussion with the
family of his intentions.

61
00:07:44,630 --> 00:07:47,970
I mean, how well do you know this bloke?
You are being ridiculous. Oh, it is

62
00:07:47,970 --> 00:07:51,130
ridiculous to be concerned for your
safety, for your honor.

63
00:07:51,350 --> 00:07:52,350
Will you listen to yourself?

64
00:07:52,510 --> 00:07:56,350
You sound like some kind of uptight
Victorian tyrant. We're in the 21st

65
00:07:56,350 --> 00:07:58,470
century. Chastity belts are no longer in
style.

66
00:07:59,110 --> 00:08:00,230
Has it gone that far?

67
00:08:01,230 --> 00:08:02,230
Oh, my God!

68
00:08:03,130 --> 00:08:06,630
As the closest thing you have to a
parent and as someone with more

69
00:08:06,630 --> 00:08:10,050
experience in the world, it is my
responsibility to protect you.

70
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,700
There are so many things wrong with that
statement, we're going to need to number

71
00:08:12,700 --> 00:08:16,440
them. One, you are not my parent. You're
my great, great, great, great

72
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,760
grandparent. And two, I have greater
experience in this world than you do.

73
00:08:20,820 --> 00:08:23,420
And three, it is Charlie's
responsibility to protect me, not yours.

74
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,340
It is not just my personal and familial
feelings towards you, but my experience

75
00:08:27,340 --> 00:08:29,680
as a librarian, which is greater than
yours.

76
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,559
Along with all the excitement and
satisfaction of this job is the fact we

77
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,240
are not granted a personal life.

78
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,039
Outside romances are forbidden.

79
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:38,380
What about you and Anya?

80
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,020
Well, if not strictly forbidden, then
highly discouraged.

81
00:08:45,100 --> 00:08:46,560
You realize what you're saying?

82
00:08:48,660 --> 00:08:50,560
Of course.

83
00:08:51,620 --> 00:08:54,280
I do not regret all the consequences of
my actions.

84
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,220
But I would be lying to you if I told
you they had not caused me some very

85
00:08:58,220 --> 00:08:59,220
deep pain.

86
00:09:03,500 --> 00:09:07,140
Look, we all have to make our own
choices, don't we?

87
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,040
You chose to be a librarian, Lysa.

88
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,700
And all choices have consequences.

89
00:09:14,740 --> 00:09:16,380
Uh, hey, guys?

90
00:09:17,340 --> 00:09:23,100
What? Hate to interrupt, but, um... I
think you two better see something.

91
00:09:24,380 --> 00:09:27,300
Right, so I was able to hack into the
Belgrade CCTV system.

92
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,460
Looks like Belgrade has its very own
Batman.

93
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,140
Correction, its own Superman.

94
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:36,520
You guys weren't kidding.

95
00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:37,560
This guy's amazing.

96
00:09:37,820 --> 00:09:40,100
Guess the pendulum knew what it was
doing when it sent us there.

97
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,200
Oh, it's a shame he didn't reveal
himself.

98
00:09:43,620 --> 00:09:47,400
Uh, yeah, that's what I thought as well,
but then, uh, I used your high

99
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,200
-definition enhancement program, and...
You did?

100
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:51,800
Mm-hmm.

101
00:09:55,620 --> 00:09:56,620
Wait for it.

102
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:03,360
Congratulations.

103
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,340
You're dating a superhero.

104
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,240
Are you okay?

105
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,820
I don't get it. You're involved with a
guy who's faster than a speeding bullet,

106
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,020
can leap over tall buildings in a single
bound, and you're bummed about it?

107
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,300
It's not all bad. I mean, all
superheroes have secret identities.

108
00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:25,700
Okay, but since there are no actual
superheroes, he must be using magic.

109
00:10:26,260 --> 00:10:28,080
Which is why the pendulum sent you
there.

110
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:34,520
So, this superhero notion, is it a, um,
modern invention?

111
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,120
Not really. It's been a thing for almost
a century now. It started out in comic

112
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,240
books for kids, and now it's taken over
the culture.

113
00:10:40,949 --> 00:10:44,030
Superheroes fill the public's need to
believe in someone with extraordinary

114
00:10:44,030 --> 00:10:46,790
powers protecting them from evildoers.

115
00:10:47,190 --> 00:10:49,250
Well, someone like me.

116
00:10:50,010 --> 00:10:52,730
Except you don't actually have
superpowers.

117
00:10:52,990 --> 00:10:54,050
You've got the costume, though.

118
00:10:54,250 --> 00:10:56,710
And I kind of think if anyone fits the
bill, it's probably me.

119
00:10:57,230 --> 00:11:01,030
In any event, if Lysa is correct and
this fellow is in possession of a

120
00:11:01,030 --> 00:11:03,490
magical artifact, then we must retrieve
it.

121
00:11:04,850 --> 00:11:05,850
Do we, though?

122
00:11:06,230 --> 00:11:09,710
If he's just, you know, fighting crime
and protecting the city?

123
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:16,280
He may seem like a perfectly admirable
chap when trying to impress a young

124
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:17,280
lady.

125
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:18,840
But we know how this goes.

126
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,460
Magic corrupts all those who employ it.

127
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,700
So we must find this artifact if we are
to save this young man.

128
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,360
So, what's our plan?

129
00:11:27,580 --> 00:11:30,300
You and Charlie find out what you can
about the thieves.

130
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:34,960
After all, the Pendulum did send us to
the jewelry store before our superhero

131
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,620
arrived. Nice.

132
00:11:37,130 --> 00:11:41,450
You must reconnect with your young man
and draw him out. Of what?

133
00:11:41,990 --> 00:11:45,210
Now you're okay with me seeing him? On a
strictly professional basis.

134
00:11:46,090 --> 00:11:47,090
No.

135
00:11:47,950 --> 00:11:52,710
No, I don't feel comfortable contacting
him under false pretenses.

136
00:11:53,050 --> 00:11:57,150
Oh, I saw the way he was looking at you.
I'm pretty sure you won't have to do the

137
00:11:57,150 --> 00:11:59,450
contacting. I think you're
overestimating my...

138
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,620
The truth is, my life's kind of boring.

139
00:12:17,140 --> 00:12:19,940
I think a woman like you is used to a
more exciting type.

140
00:12:20,220 --> 00:12:21,920
Again, I think you're being too modest.

141
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:27,020
To do what you do, explore caves, climb
mountains, all in the name of saving the

142
00:12:27,020 --> 00:12:28,020
planet.

143
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:29,580
I think it's really heroic.

144
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,480
Heroic? Me?

145
00:12:32,460 --> 00:12:34,960
No, that's not me. I think I'm just
obsessed with rocks.

146
00:12:35,340 --> 00:12:37,340
Yeah, well, I think there's more to you
than you're willing to admit.

147
00:12:49,470 --> 00:12:51,570
This area is for the right personnel
only.

148
00:12:51,810 --> 00:12:52,890
What are you two doing here?

149
00:12:54,410 --> 00:12:56,570
I'm the librarian.

150
00:12:59,650 --> 00:13:00,650
Of course you are.

151
00:13:00,750 --> 00:13:04,070
We're looking for the suspects arrested
in the jewelry store robbery last night.

152
00:13:04,270 --> 00:13:06,370
They're in holding cell D, down the hall
and to the left.

153
00:13:09,770 --> 00:13:11,070
Oh, right.

154
00:13:17,819 --> 00:13:19,400
Really getting the hang of that one.

155
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:20,640
Right?

156
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:25,060
So maybe we used to shoplift now and
then.

157
00:13:25,380 --> 00:13:28,900
But we've never done anything like that
in our life.

158
00:13:29,180 --> 00:13:30,180
Where'd you get the shotgun?

159
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,360
Boki's mother is a duck hunter.

160
00:13:33,740 --> 00:13:35,200
That gun was her favorite.

161
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,400
She's going to kill me if I don't get it
back to her straightened out.

162
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,740
How did that guy do that?

163
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,880
You said you were hanging around on the
street corner trying to figure out how

164
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:45,880
to get free beer.

165
00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:47,610
Yeah. Then what happened?

166
00:13:47,850 --> 00:13:54,350
I just heard a voice in my head saying,
think bigger, go for a big score.

167
00:13:54,510 --> 00:13:58,190
Before I could even tell the other guys,
they seemed to get the same idea.

168
00:13:58,650 --> 00:14:01,030
Didn't that seem strange to you?

169
00:14:02,650 --> 00:14:03,690
It does now.

170
00:14:04,290 --> 00:14:09,770
But at the time, it was like something
possessed us.

171
00:14:11,370 --> 00:14:12,750
Yeah. Yeah?

172
00:14:16,940 --> 00:14:20,480
Darwin called it the imperfection of the
geologic record because there's a

173
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,100
disproportionate amount of younger rocks
available for study.

174
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,860
Due to the erosion of rocks from the
Precambrian period?

175
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,120
That's exactly it. That's exactly right.

176
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,040
You have a beautiful mind.

177
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,980
You know, I think I would be more
interesting if I didn't spend all of my

178
00:14:36,980 --> 00:14:40,280
time measuring neutrino flux and ice
albedo feedback.

179
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:41,720
All of your science?

180
00:14:42,180 --> 00:14:43,180
Really?

181
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:44,960
All right. Well, what about you?

182
00:14:45,770 --> 00:14:49,590
You told me that you'd abandoned your
work in predictive modelling for a new

183
00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:51,130
project and then you avoided the
subject.

184
00:14:51,330 --> 00:14:53,570
I want to know what your secret is. It's
difficult and it's right.

185
00:14:57,310 --> 00:14:58,830
We'll take your advice on your phone.

186
00:15:21,410 --> 00:15:23,630
No, leave me alone or I'll stick her.

187
00:15:24,110 --> 00:15:25,990
Why? What do you have to gain from this?

188
00:15:27,030 --> 00:15:28,030
I don't know.

189
00:15:29,930 --> 00:15:30,930
Hello.

190
00:15:33,670 --> 00:15:36,170
Were you following me?

191
00:15:36,410 --> 00:15:37,410
Good thing I was.

192
00:15:37,870 --> 00:15:43,450
Ah, it's high time we met. I am Vikram
Chamberlain, fellow superhero and

193
00:15:43,450 --> 00:15:45,130
guardian to this young woman's honor.

194
00:15:51,150 --> 00:15:52,650
Robert, I can explain.

195
00:15:57,310 --> 00:15:58,310
Was that something I said?

196
00:16:03,090 --> 00:16:04,830
I don't understand. Why are you so
upset?

197
00:16:05,150 --> 00:16:08,370
Let's try sexism, anachronistic,
Victoria Murray, toxic masculinity.

198
00:16:08,770 --> 00:16:12,030
Masculinity? Toxic? How on earth can
masculinity be toxic, you silly girl?

199
00:16:14,990 --> 00:16:18,430
How did it go?

200
00:16:20,270 --> 00:16:21,570
We gained valuable information.

201
00:16:21,810 --> 00:16:24,370
We? No, I gained information.

202
00:16:24,790 --> 00:16:28,010
Vikram scared him off just as I was
earning his trust, which, by the way, is

203
00:16:28,010 --> 00:16:29,890
something we have nothing of,
apparently.

204
00:16:30,330 --> 00:16:31,510
Guardian of my honor?

205
00:16:31,710 --> 00:16:35,470
Really? What about you? What did you
learn?

206
00:16:35,830 --> 00:16:40,830
Oh, I found some of Robert's articles
and research papers. His early work is

207
00:16:40,830 --> 00:16:43,910
mostly about using the geological record
to find patterns related to climate

208
00:16:43,910 --> 00:16:45,330
change. Pretty straightforward stuff.

209
00:16:45,950 --> 00:16:51,020
Then... About a year ago, he became
interested in folklore about geodes and

210
00:16:51,020 --> 00:16:52,980
covalent crystals.

211
00:16:53,620 --> 00:16:57,640
According to Slavic mythology, there are
stones called alatirs, believed to be

212
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,620
the mother of all stones and nestled in
the navel of the earth.

213
00:17:00,940 --> 00:17:03,300
Slavic mythology. That would explain
what brought him to Belgrade.

214
00:17:03,740 --> 00:17:09,079
The alatir are referred to in both
ancient Russian and Balkan poetry as a

215
00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:11,240
mighty force that has no end.

216
00:17:11,780 --> 00:17:14,400
He made a sketch of it.

217
00:17:15,270 --> 00:17:18,230
It's not too large. He could be carrying
that on his purse.

218
00:17:18,790 --> 00:17:23,310
When he sensed danger, I saw something
on his arm. It was under the skin. It

219
00:17:23,310 --> 00:17:24,990
glowed, but it was smaller than this.

220
00:17:26,050 --> 00:17:28,710
What did you glean at the police
station?

221
00:17:29,030 --> 00:17:30,830
There was something odd about our jewel
thieves.

222
00:17:31,510 --> 00:17:32,790
They weren't hardened criminals.

223
00:17:33,130 --> 00:17:35,410
They said something just came over them.

224
00:17:35,710 --> 00:17:36,850
Couldn't explain their behavior.

225
00:17:37,050 --> 00:17:38,330
They said they felt possessed.

226
00:17:38,930 --> 00:17:43,310
It sounds like our case with the cut
purses at the park, but what is the

227
00:17:43,310 --> 00:17:44,310
connection?

228
00:17:44,830 --> 00:17:46,110
There's only one way to find out.

229
00:17:47,190 --> 00:17:49,570
You must lure him into another liaison.

230
00:17:49,990 --> 00:17:50,990
Lure him?

231
00:17:51,050 --> 00:17:52,470
Like I'm some kind of femme fatale?

232
00:17:53,010 --> 00:17:55,730
Exactly. But you'll be operating
strictly in your capacity as a

233
00:17:55,730 --> 00:17:58,950
librarian. Why would he even want to see
me again after what happened?

234
00:17:59,330 --> 00:18:03,370
Well, what happened? It was revealed you
have a protective relative, whereas you

235
00:18:03,370 --> 00:18:06,350
found out he has superpowers. Who has
more explaining to do, hmm?

236
00:18:08,010 --> 00:18:09,090
It is our best shot.

237
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:12,090
Okay.

238
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,220
Connor, you continue the research on
Robert and the Altair.

239
00:18:15,980 --> 00:18:18,300
Myself and Charlie shall accompany Miss
Patel. No.

240
00:18:19,020 --> 00:18:20,020
No.

241
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,560
If I do this, I'm doing it on my own.

242
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,540
I didn't know if you'd come.

243
00:18:39,100 --> 00:18:40,140
No, I didn't either.

244
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:42,400
Don't worry.

245
00:18:42,460 --> 00:18:43,560
I'm alone, I promise.

246
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:44,940
You sure about that?

247
00:18:45,460 --> 00:18:49,300
I'm so sorry about what happened. The
Vikram can be all over protective.

248
00:18:49,700 --> 00:18:52,280
I felt terrible when you ran off like
that.

249
00:18:52,620 --> 00:18:56,280
I ran off because you couldn't possibly
understand what's happening with me.

250
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:57,559
Try me.

251
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,480
You might be surprised at what I can
understand.

252
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,840
What do you do when you spend your
entire life studying science and then

253
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,420
you find out there are more powerful
forces at play in the universe?

254
00:19:09,180 --> 00:19:10,500
Like what?

255
00:19:13,379 --> 00:19:14,379
Magic.

256
00:19:16,660 --> 00:19:17,660
Okay, come on.

257
00:19:22,780 --> 00:19:27,180
This stone in your arm, is it what glows
when you become Red Rock?

258
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,200
It's a part of it. It's a shard.

259
00:19:30,700 --> 00:19:34,200
It embedded itself in my arm when I
accidentally activated the main stone.

260
00:19:34,900 --> 00:19:35,900
And where is that?

261
00:19:36,100 --> 00:19:37,880
It's still where I found it. I'm
studying it.

262
00:19:39,580 --> 00:19:41,920
I think you're messing with things
beyond your control.

263
00:19:42,910 --> 00:19:46,090
Why don't you let me try and take out
the shard? Take out the shard?

264
00:19:46,670 --> 00:19:50,650
Have you seen the strength it gives me?
Can you imagine the power if I could

265
00:19:50,650 --> 00:19:51,650
harness the main stone?

266
00:19:51,810 --> 00:19:53,930
But there's always a price to pay for
using magic.

267
00:19:54,190 --> 00:19:56,450
The difference I could make in the
world. You are making a difference.

268
00:19:56,650 --> 00:19:57,650
As scientist.

269
00:19:57,930 --> 00:20:02,030
If science is the be-all and end-all,
then why did you give up on your work?

270
00:20:02,470 --> 00:20:05,750
What's the mystery project? And who is
this guy, Chamberlain?

271
00:20:06,210 --> 00:20:09,410
He's a relative. A distant relative.
There is nothing for you to be jealous

272
00:20:09,410 --> 00:20:12,220
about. Liza, this isn't about being
jealous.

273
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,620
This is about me telling you my deepest
secrets, and you're still hiding

274
00:20:18,620 --> 00:20:19,620
something from me.

275
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,600
Look, in case you hadn't realized, I
care about you deeply.

276
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,140
We can be honest with each other.

277
00:20:32,360 --> 00:20:33,360
I'm sorry.

278
00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:37,700
You're right. I am keeping things from
you. It's this project.

279
00:20:45,220 --> 00:20:46,460
No, you don't.

280
00:20:46,820 --> 00:20:47,820
Robert, Robert!

281
00:20:55,340 --> 00:20:57,720
We now know two very important things.

282
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,060
Red Rock is deriving his power from a
larger Alatea stone and not just from

283
00:21:02,060 --> 00:21:05,520
the shard in his arm. Great work, Lysa.
I'm glad you think it's great. I feel a

284
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:06,520
bit shady.

285
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:11,020
But didn't he also say that he was still
studying it where he found it? Yeah.

286
00:21:11,550 --> 00:21:15,090
And Connor said that the stones were
nestled in the navel of the earth.

287
00:21:15,350 --> 00:21:19,050
Well, we also know that Belgrade has an
extensive network of underground

288
00:21:19,050 --> 00:21:22,330
caverns, so we can assume this is where
the Alatea can be found.

289
00:21:22,730 --> 00:21:23,629
Which cavern?

290
00:21:23,630 --> 00:21:25,150
I mean, they go on for miles.

291
00:21:25,670 --> 00:21:28,590
Ah, Robert had white clay on his shoes.

292
00:21:28,890 --> 00:21:31,930
This would indicate an area by the Sava
River.

293
00:21:32,830 --> 00:21:35,790
Ah, I think I have an idea where it
might be.

294
00:21:39,670 --> 00:21:41,360
Excellent. We go tonight.

295
00:21:52,260 --> 00:21:53,260
Hmm.

296
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:54,800
Almost ready.

297
00:21:57,100 --> 00:21:58,100
Lysa, you all right?

298
00:21:59,420 --> 00:22:02,340
How can you tell when the corruptive
effects of magic have taken hold over a

299
00:22:02,340 --> 00:22:03,340
person?

300
00:22:04,580 --> 00:22:06,900
Well, it usually begins innocently
enough.

301
00:22:07,790 --> 00:22:11,190
A fascination with some previously
unimaginable phenomenon.

302
00:22:13,470 --> 00:22:14,970
Then the magic is used.

303
00:22:15,610 --> 00:22:20,830
A feeling of exceptionalism sets in,
followed by a sense of omnipotence.

304
00:22:23,190 --> 00:22:24,250
Then presto.

305
00:22:25,790 --> 00:22:27,610
You have a monster on your hands.

306
00:22:28,230 --> 00:22:29,230
Okay.

307
00:22:33,610 --> 00:22:36,930
You really care for this fellow, don't
you? I didn't think I had it in me to

308
00:22:36,930 --> 00:22:37,930
feel this way.

309
00:22:38,970 --> 00:22:40,230
It just happened.

310
00:22:42,030 --> 00:22:43,770
I thought we were just going to be
friends.

311
00:22:44,250 --> 00:22:49,290
But he was so smart and so... So...

312
00:22:49,290 --> 00:22:51,430
handsome.

313
00:22:54,050 --> 00:22:55,390
We met at a lecture.

314
00:22:55,650 --> 00:22:57,650
We had coffee. We exchanged books.

315
00:22:57,990 --> 00:23:01,190
These things have a way of taking on a
life of their own. Nobody realized how

316
00:23:01,190 --> 00:23:02,230
good of a person he was.

317
00:23:03,519 --> 00:23:04,519
So decent.

318
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,940
You know, before he was going to be a
geologist, he was a divinity student.

319
00:23:09,420 --> 00:23:11,300
He thought about becoming a priest.

320
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,760
Sounds almost too good to be true. Well,
yeah, then he found magic and power

321
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,660
and... I think he's becoming obsessed
with both of them.

322
00:23:20,140 --> 00:23:22,080
It's only a matter of time, Liza.

323
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,880
Magic, power, corruption.

324
00:23:27,300 --> 00:23:28,360
It's the devil's equation.

325
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,440
Bikram, I'm worried about what's going
to happen to him.

326
00:23:46,830 --> 00:23:48,450
What makes you so sure this is the way?

327
00:23:48,990 --> 00:23:50,230
I'm following odds.

328
00:24:24,620 --> 00:24:26,080
I had a feeling that he was looking for
this place.

329
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,720
In a cult history circle, this is
something people whisper about.

330
00:24:46,020 --> 00:24:47,020
Hang on.

331
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:05,840
What is this place?

332
00:25:07,380 --> 00:25:10,760
Remember everything I told you about
Germany under Hitler?

333
00:25:11,100 --> 00:25:12,120
Of course I did.

334
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,060
A much terrific and dark period of
history.

335
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,340
When this area was occupied during the
Second World War, the Germans maintained

336
00:25:19,340 --> 00:25:21,380
bunkers underground to avoid Allied
bombers.

337
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,400
This doesn't look like a bomb shelter.

338
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,120
Robert discovered that some of these
places weren't just for hiding. There

339
00:25:28,120 --> 00:25:29,120
was something else entirely.

340
00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:30,360
Like what?

341
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,300
Like hidden laboratories.

342
00:25:34,120 --> 00:25:35,800
for unleashing the power of the magical
artifacts.

343
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,220
So where is this stone?

344
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,580
What is it?

345
00:25:54,780 --> 00:25:57,980
It looks like a primitive magnetic
susceptibility detector.

346
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,840
It's used in geology to measure the
electromagnetic field intensity in

347
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:02,840
rocks.

348
00:26:05,900 --> 00:26:07,600
These screws have fresh scratches on
them.

349
00:26:14,620 --> 00:26:15,100
Nothing

350
00:26:15,100 --> 00:26:24,620
here.

351
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:25,840
No, wait.

352
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:28,540
Ah, see that?

353
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:30,520
Tiny crystallite fragments.

354
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,280
Yeah. Stone was here.

355
00:26:33,100 --> 00:26:34,460
He must have moved it.

356
00:26:35,690 --> 00:26:40,230
Then we must find it before he's
completely corrupted by its power.

357
00:27:02,110 --> 00:27:03,590
You sure he said he was down here?

358
00:27:03,980 --> 00:27:05,520
He said it was still where he found it.

359
00:27:06,140 --> 00:27:07,140
We've looked everywhere.

360
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:09,340
We must decamp before Red Road returns.

361
00:27:09,820 --> 00:27:11,380
We need to understand what we're dealing
with.

362
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,280
Okay, here's what we know.

363
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,380
I had to dig in some dark corners of the
library's collection, but I found the

364
00:27:21,380 --> 00:27:22,800
archive of the Ahnenerbe.

365
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:24,459
The what?

366
00:27:24,460 --> 00:27:28,680
The Annenerbe were a pseudoscientific
organization within the German army.

367
00:27:28,820 --> 00:27:31,940
They were tasked with creating false
historical narratives to support

368
00:27:31,940 --> 00:27:36,260
Hitler's racist theories, heavy on a
cult belief. Apparently, when they tried

369
00:27:36,260 --> 00:27:41,020
to tap into the power of the Elektir,
they unleashed unwanted contrary forces.

370
00:27:41,879 --> 00:27:42,879
Contrary forces.

371
00:27:42,940 --> 00:27:46,820
Yeah, for every power that it granted
them, the stone created more antagonists

372
00:27:46,820 --> 00:27:47,820
who rose up against them.

373
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,220
Partisans, guerrilla fighters.

374
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,220
Oh, so they can't sell each other out.
Created so many problems for them that

375
00:27:52,220 --> 00:27:53,220
they just got out of the program.

376
00:27:54,180 --> 00:27:55,180
It's Newton's law.

377
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,880
Every action has an equal and opposite
reaction.

378
00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,720
But this is magic.

379
00:27:59,960 --> 00:28:03,040
Yeah, but even magic has to be subject
to the laws of physics.

380
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,360
So Newton believed that forces come in
action-reaction force pairs.

381
00:28:06,580 --> 00:28:10,360
So in this instance, the force pair is
the superhero and... And the super

382
00:28:10,360 --> 00:28:13,580
criminal. Or super crime, in the form of
the current crime wave.

383
00:28:13,780 --> 00:28:19,040
It's a feedback loop. So this rock, this
aletheer, is giving Robert his powers

384
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,940
and turning ordinary people into felons.

385
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,460
When I tapped into the local crime
database, it showed that 90% of recent

386
00:28:25,460 --> 00:28:27,500
incidences are committed by first-time
offenders.

387
00:28:28,060 --> 00:28:29,280
And the numbers are increasing rapidly.

388
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:33,380
So, the Red Rock continues using the
power of the stone. The entire city will

389
00:28:33,380 --> 00:28:35,600
descend into knavery and chaos.

390
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,240
And Robert will become more and more
corrupted by magic.

391
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:39,920
We need to find that Alatea.

392
00:28:40,460 --> 00:28:42,080
A-P-S-A.

393
00:28:44,300 --> 00:28:45,300
P-S-A-P.

394
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,260
Right. And at the very least, we need to
remove that shard from his arm.

395
00:28:49,620 --> 00:28:51,720
Voluntarily or involuntarily, hmm?

396
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,840
Charlie. I have some training removing
bullets in the field.

397
00:28:55,540 --> 00:28:56,820
I can get that shard out.

398
00:28:58,430 --> 00:28:59,430
One way or another.

399
00:29:06,790 --> 00:29:09,510
If they want to get involved, you can
figure this one out.

400
00:29:10,090 --> 00:29:11,090
No.

401
00:29:11,770 --> 00:29:12,770
No, I'm a librarian.

402
00:29:14,990 --> 00:29:16,090
I'll find him and deliver him.

403
00:29:20,350 --> 00:29:21,350
Robert.

404
00:29:22,030 --> 00:29:23,150
How do you know where I was staying?

405
00:29:23,970 --> 00:29:26,670
I've had my ways. I know that sounds
dockerish, but I needed to find you.

406
00:29:26,730 --> 00:29:28,450
This is not something you can control.

407
00:29:28,750 --> 00:29:32,270
I can control it. You think you can, but
you're dealing with forces greater than

408
00:29:32,270 --> 00:29:33,270
you are. How do you know?

409
00:29:33,490 --> 00:29:35,730
This project I'm working on, it has to
do with thaumaturgy.

410
00:29:36,250 --> 00:29:37,250
You mean magic?

411
00:29:37,430 --> 00:29:39,250
Yes, and the artifacts that possess it.

412
00:29:39,550 --> 00:29:40,770
And these friends of yours?

413
00:29:41,110 --> 00:29:42,170
Part of the same organization.

414
00:29:42,610 --> 00:29:45,630
But they don't know that I'm here. They
wouldn't like it if they did.

415
00:29:47,310 --> 00:29:49,610
So what's been happening between us is a
part of your job?

416
00:29:49,870 --> 00:29:53,640
No. No, I only realized what was
happening after we became involved.

417
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:55,960
Robert. Why are you here?

418
00:29:56,300 --> 00:29:59,820
Because I care about you, and I know
what happens when people abuse magic.

419
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,000
I'm not abusing anything. I was chosen
for this. Visit yourself. It's already

420
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,740
happening. Oh, you're not the same guy
that I first met. You used to talk about

421
00:30:07,740 --> 00:30:08,740
doing good for society.

422
00:30:09,260 --> 00:30:12,180
I'm Red Rock. Without me, society would
fall apart.

423
00:30:12,460 --> 00:30:15,120
What you're doing is causing society to
fall apart.

424
00:30:15,540 --> 00:30:16,760
There's a feedback loop.

425
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,300
The stone doesn't just give you your
power, it...

426
00:30:19,790 --> 00:30:22,810
creates a purpose for your power by
turning other people to crime.

427
00:30:23,110 --> 00:30:24,450
You're wrong. I'm not.

428
00:30:25,050 --> 00:30:26,050
Listen to me.

429
00:30:26,950 --> 00:30:31,350
I am part of an ancient and secret
institution, and they have access to

430
00:30:31,350 --> 00:30:35,010
tools more powerful than your ality. And
one way or another, my colleagues will

431
00:30:35,010 --> 00:30:36,010
get it from you.

432
00:30:36,350 --> 00:30:37,870
Don't walk away from me again.

433
00:30:39,290 --> 00:30:41,510
I care about you. I am on your side.

434
00:31:46,030 --> 00:31:50,410
So sorry, but I must demand that you
hand that sacred stone over to us.

435
00:31:51,870 --> 00:31:52,870
Demand?

436
00:31:53,350 --> 00:31:54,350
All right.

437
00:31:54,690 --> 00:31:57,070
Request. A refusal is not an option.

438
00:32:02,070 --> 00:32:05,730
Well, I'll give you this. You certainly
have a massive pair of friends.

439
00:32:09,050 --> 00:32:10,050
Give that back.

440
00:32:10,390 --> 00:32:12,470
We need to put this where it can do no
harm.

441
00:32:21,399 --> 00:32:22,399
Yeah I do.

442
00:32:22,980 --> 00:32:24,060
Now she's got the power.

443
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,540
It appears that we have the advantage.

444
00:33:17,020 --> 00:33:18,780
We are taking the Alatea with us.

445
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,160
But before we do, we have to remove that
fragment from your arm.

446
00:33:23,620 --> 00:33:26,180
Never. She knows what she's doing. It
won't hurt.

447
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:27,800
Much.

448
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:29,920
Stop.

449
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:31,860
There's got to be another way.

450
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,600
Sunpuck will snap her neck.

451
00:33:37,900 --> 00:33:39,120
Now give me that stone.

452
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:41,840
What are you doing? You don't want to do
this.

453
00:33:42,060 --> 00:33:45,000
You read some hair so we could find the
stone. You betrayed me.

454
00:33:45,740 --> 00:33:48,500
Don't come any closer. I demand you
unhand her.

455
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:49,840
Get back!

456
00:33:54,860 --> 00:33:57,760
Give me the stone, or I will crush her.

457
00:34:03,580 --> 00:34:06,300
Give me the stone, and I'll let her go.

458
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,960
Do not harm her, Charlie.

459
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:11,739
Give it to him. No.

460
00:34:12,060 --> 00:34:13,719
We're librarians. We don't give up
artifacts.

461
00:34:14,020 --> 00:34:18,860
It's mine. I found it. Give me the stone
and I will leave this city and you can

462
00:34:18,860 --> 00:34:22,159
go about your business. Don't listen to
him. It's just the stone talking. He

463
00:34:22,159 --> 00:34:23,159
won't hurt me.

464
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:25,198
Yes, I will.

465
00:34:25,199 --> 00:34:26,199
Give it to him.

466
00:34:27,060 --> 00:34:28,560
No. Charlie, no.

467
00:34:30,260 --> 00:34:31,620
No. No.

468
00:34:32,420 --> 00:34:33,420
Robert, stop.

469
00:34:34,300 --> 00:34:35,300
This isn't you.

470
00:34:35,639 --> 00:34:37,320
What happened to the man I first met?

471
00:34:38,620 --> 00:34:39,620
There was no one.

472
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:44,900
I was an anonymous scientist working on
a problem that will never be solved in

473
00:34:44,900 --> 00:34:45,738
my lifetime.

474
00:34:45,739 --> 00:34:46,638
Maybe not.

475
00:34:46,639 --> 00:34:50,380
But another scientist will stand on your
shoulders and it will be solved.

476
00:34:50,659 --> 00:34:55,100
It may not be as glamorous as being Red
Rock, but it is real. It matters.

477
00:34:55,460 --> 00:35:01,000
What matters is this. The power that I
get from this. With this, I can fight

478
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,220
injustice every day.

479
00:35:02,460 --> 00:35:04,440
What you're doing is creating injustice.

480
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,960
You are turning innocent people into
criminals every time you use the stone.

481
00:35:09,630 --> 00:35:11,410
I'm telling you, it is Newton's third
law.

482
00:35:11,630 --> 00:35:15,530
You and I both know this is outside the
realm of science. This is about spirit.

483
00:35:15,890 --> 00:35:17,250
Okay, fine, then. Forget science.

484
00:35:17,650 --> 00:35:19,050
What about the Gospel of Matthew?

485
00:35:23,570 --> 00:35:25,250
Violence begets violence.

486
00:35:27,510 --> 00:35:29,450
You just threatened to kill me.

487
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,040
Peace.

488
00:36:33,220 --> 00:36:34,920
Write to me when you get to California.

489
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,520
You should come and visit.

490
00:36:36,940 --> 00:36:39,240
Faculty housing at Caltech is like a
five-star hotel.

491
00:36:39,740 --> 00:36:40,860
You mean bunk together?

492
00:36:41,180 --> 00:36:42,540
That is mighty presumptuous.

493
00:36:43,700 --> 00:36:44,820
Thought it was worth a try.

494
00:36:46,260 --> 00:36:48,280
Maybe our paths will cross again one
day.

495
00:36:48,700 --> 00:36:49,700
But not now.

496
00:36:51,240 --> 00:36:53,520
A lot has happened in the last couple of
weeks.

497
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:58,600
I've had a chance to think about things,
about my life and about all the

498
00:36:58,600 --> 00:36:59,600
commitments I've made.

499
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:00,900
And I'm not one of them.

500
00:37:02,540 --> 00:37:05,560
Hey, you need to do your work and I need
to do mine.

501
00:37:06,860 --> 00:37:11,000
Yeah, your work, the organization that
you work for, you never really told me

502
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,000
what it was.

503
00:37:12,460 --> 00:37:14,980
Believe it or not, I'm just a librarian.

504
00:37:23,799 --> 00:37:26,600
Goodbye. Goodbye,

505
00:37:27,860 --> 00:37:28,860
Robert.

506
00:37:58,220 --> 00:38:01,720
Man, they feel pretty awesome to have
this sort of power, even for a moment.

507
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,640
You don't think this debris has any more
juice left in it, do you?

508
00:38:05,180 --> 00:38:06,900
Don't even think about it.

509
00:38:07,300 --> 00:38:10,160
This is going into storage in the
library.

510
00:38:10,660 --> 00:38:12,160
I'll just stop wondering.

511
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:17,420
Now, Connor, it isn't necessary to
employ supernatural hoodwinking to

512
00:38:17,420 --> 00:38:18,420
become a superhero.

513
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:23,200
It merely requires that one have an
extraordinary intelligence and a

514
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,020
superior physical stamina.

515
00:38:26,240 --> 00:38:27,240
True.

516
00:38:27,900 --> 00:38:29,080
Batman doesn't have any superpowers.

517
00:38:29,340 --> 00:38:33,580
In my day, a Batman was a personal
servant to a military officer.

518
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,760
Oh, well, now he's a billion-dollar
franchise.

519
00:38:56,430 --> 00:38:58,610
Did the departure proceed without
incident?

520
00:39:02,050 --> 00:39:07,330
This idea that a librarian can't have a
personal life...

521
00:39:07,330 --> 00:39:11,810
I don't think I really understood what I
was getting into.

522
00:39:12,510 --> 00:39:14,770
We all face that realization at some
point.

523
00:39:15,710 --> 00:39:18,310
But you are a remarkably wise person.

524
00:39:18,750 --> 00:39:20,290
You will find the proper balance.

525
00:39:20,750 --> 00:39:22,090
That is a change of tune.

526
00:39:22,710 --> 00:39:25,670
No more, I am the guardian of this young
woman's honor.

527
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:32,580
Yes, I may possess a finely honed
intellect and encyclopedic knowledge.

528
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,020
But I can still learn a few things.

529
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,020
The library tells us to avoid romantic
entanglements.

530
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:42,200
But we are human.

531
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:44,860
We have human emotions.

532
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,280
It is up to each of us to sort that out
for ourselves.

533
00:39:50,140 --> 00:39:54,720
Did you know that when you were with
Anya? Or did you only realize that now?

534
00:39:56,330 --> 00:40:00,290
I only know that the heart wants what
the heart wants.

535
00:40:04,870 --> 00:40:06,970
Does the heart ever want to be alone?

536
00:40:10,070 --> 00:40:16,070
For oft when on my couch I lie, in
vacant or in pensive mood,

537
00:40:16,470 --> 00:40:23,090
I flash upon that inward eye, which is
the bliss of solitude, and then my

538
00:40:23,090 --> 00:40:24,570
heart with pleasure fills.

539
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,000
And dances with the daffodils.

540
00:40:29,460 --> 00:40:30,460
William Wordsworth.

541
00:40:37,240 --> 00:40:39,460
We were pals, Wordsworth and I.

542
00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:42,100
We used to lark about the Lake District
together.

543
00:40:44,700 --> 00:40:45,700
Larking about.

544
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,000
Sounds good.

545
00:40:47,380 --> 00:40:48,380
Anyone up for a walk?

546
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:50,160
Count me in.

547
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:51,840
Me too.

548
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:53,220
Always up for a good lark.
