I SEE YOU�VE RESERVED ROOM NUMBER 33.

THERE�S AN EVENT IN THE LOUNGE TONIGHT

IF YOU�D LIKE TO MOVE TO A HIGHER FLOOR IN THE NEW WING.

I�M FINE WHERE I AM. THANK YOU.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

SORRY.

[ UP-TEMPO DANCE MUSIC PLAYS ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

THERE IS SO MUCH DIRT GOING ON RIGHT NOW.

MAYBE A THINK TANK OF SOME SORT.

LUCAS, RIGHT? SIGN MY PETITION.

UNLESS YOU WANT TO SPEND ALL YOUR TIME AT A CHARITY EVENT

JOCKEYING FOR A SUMMER INTERNSHIP.

? I CAN FEEL IT ?

? I CAN FEEL IT ?

? I CAN FEEL IT... ?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

WE�RE HERE... TO BRING YOU HOME.

WHOA. WHOA.

WHAT�S WITH THE LURKING?

I�M ON MY BREAK.

WELL, MY FIRST REAL BREAK TONIGHT

WAS YOU WALKING OUT THAT DOOR.

SEAMUS.

LIZ.

THE WHOLE POINT OF THESE genON EVENTS

IS TO HOOK KIDS UP WITH CHARITABLE CAUSES THAT THEY CARE ABOUT.

THAT�S HOW I FOUND OUT ABOUT WHITE LIGHTS FOR A BETTER FUTURE.

I VOLUNTEER THERE THREE DAYS A WEEK.

EXCUSE ME. I CAN�T FIND A SIGNAL.

YO, WHAT�S YOUR DEAL?

I�M NOT A "YO." I�M AN AGNES.

DJ JAZZY JACK�S SPINNING A SURPRISE SET.

GOT TO GET THE WORD OUT.

YO, WHY DON�T YOU GET THE WORD TO MY BOSS

YOU JUST DUSTED A FULL TRAY OF GLASSES?

HEY. HEY. WHAT�S GOING ON?

PATIO�S OFF LIMITS TONIGHT.

HEY, I, UH, SAW YOU COME OUT HERE BEFORE.

WHY DON�T YOU CHILL?

SHOULDN�T YOU BE INSIDE CLEARING TABLES OR SOMETHING?

Whitney: GUYS! GUYS!

NO WORRIES.

JUST YOUR TYPICAL ALPHA-MALE POSTURING.

SHE MEANS UP THERE!

[ GASPS ]

WHAT IS THAT? Lucas: DO SOMETHING!

STOP THEM!

[ SCREAMS ]

CALL 911, QUICK.

DID I JUST SEE WHAT I THINK I SAW?

THE ROOM�S EMPTY.

NO BODY.

NO SIGN OF A STRUGGLE. NO OTHER COMPLAINTS.

AS FAR AS WE CAN TELL, IT NEVER HAPPENED.

IT DID, PRINCIPAL MORGANSTERN.

A MAN WAS ATTACKED. WE ALL SAW IT.

SO YOU SAY.

WHY ELSE WOULD WE CALL 911?

IN MY MIND, THERE COULD ONLY BE ONE EXPLANATION.

MASS HALLUCINATION? SWAMP GAS?

I�M SORRY. WHO ARE YOU EXACTLY?

MY NAME IS SEAMUS, AND I WORK FOR THE HOTEL.

CAN I GO NOW?

"LAME POLICE CHASES" IS ON,

AND I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO SET MY DVR.

THAT�S ENOUGH!

TAKING POLICE OFFICERS OFF THE STREET,

RUINING A CHARITY EVENT - IT�S A TRAVESTY.

HOW COULD YOU ALL POSSIBLY IMAGINE

THAT THERE WOULD BE NO REPERCUSSIONS

FROM A HOAX OF THIS MAGNITUDE?

HOLD ON. YOU THINK WE�RE LYING?

WE�VE SEEN THIS BEFORE.

JUST SOME TWISTED IDEA OF A PRANK.

AS OF RIGHT NOW, YOU ARE ALL SUSPENDED.

WHEN YOU APPEAR BEFORE THE REVIEW BOARD,

EXPULSION WILL BE ON THE TABLE.

AND THAT GOES FOR YOU, TOO, LUCAS.

DON�T EXPECT ANY SPECIAL TREATMENT.

COME ON, DAD. WHY WOULD WE MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS UP?

THE PRINCIPAL�S YOUR DAD?

WAIT. WHAT ABOUT THE MAN WHO WAS ATTACKED?

DOESN�T ANYBODY CARE WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?

COME ON, LUCAS. LET�S GO.

THESE ARE THE KIND OF YOUNG PEOPLE

YOU CAN FIT IN A BOX, LUCAS.

THE JOCK AND THE FLIRT AND THE GOSSIP

AND THE BLEEDING HEART AND THE LOSER.

[ SIGHS ]

NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

SOME KIDS SAW US, BUT NOBODY BELIEVES THEM.

YOU SURE?

YEAH. JUST BRING THE CAR AROUND.

I�LL TALK TO THE COPS AND MAKE SURE WE�RE COVERED.

[ KEYBOARD CLACKING ]

[ CELLPHONE RINGS, BUZZES ]

HELLO?

[ SCOFFS ]

OF COURSE I KNOW WHO YOU ARE, LUCAS MORGANSTERN.

IS THERE ANYONE I DON�T KNOW?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, EXACTLY?

[ CELLPHONE RINGS, BUZZES ]

WHITNEY HERE. HOW CAN I HELP YOU?

[ CELLPHONE RINGS, BUZZES ]

Yes!

[ CELLPHONE RINGS, BUZZES ]

HELLO?

YEAH, OKAY. WHERE DO YOU WANT TO MEET?

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

THIS BETTER BE GOOD.

Dmitri: SEAMUS, RIGHT?

YOU GOT A MINUTE?

THANKS TO YOU, I GOT ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD.

I GOT FIRED LAST NIGHT.

NO ONE�S HAPPY WITH HOW THINGS WENT DOWN.

THAT�S WHY WE�RE HERE.

WE�RE ALL IN THE SAME HOT WATER.

THEY FOUND NO BODY AT THE HOTEL LAST NIGHT,

SO NO ONE BELIEVES WE SAW WHAT WE SAW.

SO WE FIND PROOF -

FIND OUT WHO MR. NO-BODY IS AND WHAT HE WAS UP TO.

AND WHY WOULD I WANT TO DO THAT?

MAYBE YOU LIKE BEING UNEMPLOYED,

BUT I CAN�T AFFORD TO HAVE MY TRANSCRIPT GO UP IN SMOKE.

AND SOMEONE HAS TO DO SOMETHING.

WHAT, DO I LOOK LIKE BONO AND OPRAH�S LOVE CHILD TO YOU?

YOU GOT SOMETHING BETTER TO DO ON A SATURDAY THAN HANG WITH ME?

IT�LL BE FUN. PROMISE.

ALL RIGHT.

WHERE DO WE START?

SCENE OF THE CRIME, OF COURSE.

LUCAS, I WANT YOU TO CHECK ROOM 33.

TAKE WHITNEY AND MR. PERSONALITY HERE WITH YOU.

WE�LL CHECK THE OTHER ROOMS

TO MAKE SURE NO ONE ELSE SAW ANYTHING.

WHO PUT YOU IN CHARGE?

SEE, MY FATHER OWNS THE PLACE,

AND MY BROTHER�S THE GENERAL MANAGER,

SO I HAVE THE MASTER KEY.

ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS?

YOU HAD ME AT "OWNS THE PLACE."

Dmitri: WE JUST WANT TO KNOW

WHO WAS STAYING IN ROOM 33 LAST NIGHT.

SORRY, DMITRI, BUT YOU KNOW

I CAN�T LET YOU INTO THE RESERVATION SYSTEM.

MAYBE YOU REMEMBER HIM.

HE WAS AROUND 6�, REDDISH HAIR, DARK SUIT.

IT WAS A REAL ZOO HERE LAST NIGHT, WITH THE PARTY AND ALL.

I SAW HIM.

ON MY WAY INTO THE PARTY.

YOU ASKED IF HE WANTED TO MOVE FROM ROOM 33

TO THE NEW WING, AND HE SAID NO.

HOW ABOUT GETTING OFF YOUR BUTT AND LOOKING AROUND?

YEAH. THE WHOLE GEN-X SLACKER ACT IS SO 1991.

GUYS, COME ON, LIKE WE�RE REALLY GONNA FIND A CLUE

WHERE THE COPS ALREADY DIDN�T.

YOU HEARD WHAT THEY SAID.

NO SIGN OF STRUGGLE, NO MURDER WEAPON.

HEY. HOLD ON. THAT�S IT.

THE MURDER WEAPON WAS A CANDLESTICK.

THEY COME IN SETS OF TWO, FOUR, OR SIX, RIGHT?

YOU SEE ANY CANDLESTICKS IN HERE?

ERGO, THE KILLERS BROUGHT IT WITH THEM.

DID YOU REALLY JUST SAY "ERGO" WITHOUT A TRACE OF SARCASM?

QUIET. HE�S ONTO SOMETHING.

OH, YEAH?

DOES IT BEAT THIS?

[ CHUCKLES ]

NUMBER 33 IS ONE OF OUR MOST REQUESTED ROOMS.

WHY? IT ISN�T A SUITE OR ANYTHING.

IT HAS HISTORY. TESLA LIVED THERE.

THE METAL BAND?

NIKOLA TESLA.

HE WAS A TURN-OF-THE-CENTURY SCIENTIST.

PEOPLE COME FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD -

TEACHERS, HISTORIANS,

EVEN MEDIUMS TRYING TO CONTACT HIS GHOST.

SUPER INTERESTING. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP.

WE HAVE TO GO NOW.

HOW CAN I HELP YOU, GENTLEMEN?

CHECKING IN. ROOM 33.

Seamus: "FROM CHARLES ELLIS TO ADAM ELLIS.

"FROM ADAM ELLIS TO SARAH J. ELLIS.

GUARD THIS SECRET WITH YOUR LIFE."

AND THE REST IS JUST A BUNCH OF NUMBERS.

LET ME SEE. I�M PRETTY GOOD WITH THAT KIND OF THING.

I HAD A BRAINTEASER PUBLISHED

IN THE PLUM INSTITUTE NEWSLETTER.

NO WAY. WAS THAT BEFORE OR AFTER THE BOY SCOUT JAMBOREE?

DON�T LET HIM GET TO YOU, LUCAS.

CAN YOU SOLVE THE CODE?

IT�S A CIPHER.

A CODE DEALS WITH PHRASES, SENTENCES, OR WHOLE WORDS.

OH, SO, LIKE, LUCAS MORGANSTERN COULD BE CODE FOR WHAT?

UM, TOTAL SCIENCE NERD.

YES. [ SIGHS ]

BUT IN CIPHERTEXT, EACH NUMBER REPRESENTS A LETTER.

"SEAMUS" STARTS AND ENDS WITH THE SAME LETTER,

SO IT COULD BE A CIPHER FOR, SAY, "TEAPOT," "TOILET,

OR, UM, "TYRANT."

[ CHUCKLES ]

WELL PLAYED, PROFESSOR PLUM.

[ ALARM BLARING ]

[ CELLPHONES RINGING, DINGING ]

WHAT ARE THEY DOING UP THERE?

COULD BE THEY�RE LOOKING FOR THIS.

WHAT DOES IT SAY, ANYWAY?

NO IDEA. IT�S WRITTEN IN CIPHERTEXT.

I MIGHT BE ABLE TO BREAK IT.

Agnes: GUYS.

GAME ON.

Lucas: WE�RE ABOUT TO LOSE THEM.

SEAMUS!

HIS TEXT SAID THIS WAS THE BLOCK.

HEY, SEAMUS.

YOU SHOULDN�T HAVE TAKEN OFF LIKE THAT.

IF I WOULD HAVE STOPPED TO OBEY THE CHAIN OF COMMAND,

I WOULD HAVE LOST THEM.

THAT�S THEIR CAR THERE.

THEY�VE BEEN INSIDE THAT HOUSE FOR A WHILE.

HOW DO WE FIND OUT WHO LIVES THERE?

WE COULD RING THE DOORBELL.

[ DOORBELL RINGS ]

[ DOORBELL RINGS ]

GOT A MINUTE TO HEAR ABOUT WHITE LIGHTS FOR A BETTER FUTURE?

NO, THANKS.

UH, YOU�RE NOT A MURDERER, ARE YOU, SIR?

WHAT DID YOU SAY?

THE DEATH OF ENDANGERED SPECIES IS NO JOKE.

WE�RE NOT ASKING FOR MONEY. JUST A MINUTE OF YOUR TIME.

IS THIS YOUR PRIMARY RESIDENCE, MR...ELLIS?

ELLIS? I�M NOT ELLIS.

SO, THAT�S NOT YOU?

NO, LOOK, I DON�T HAVE TIME. WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO SIGN A PETITION

OR SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER?

EITHER THEY WERE SEARCHING THE PLACE

OR MR. ELLIS IS A MAJOR SLOB.

WHO�S ELLIS?

THE INSCRIPTION IN THE JOURNAL -

"FROM CHARLES ELLIS TO ADAM ELLIS."

WHOA. CHECK THIS.

THAT - THAT�S THE GUY FROM THE HOTEL.

WAIT, SO, THEN, WHO WERE THE GUYS WHO ATTACKED HIM?

I DON�T KNOW, BUT IF THEY WENT BACK TO THE HOTEL TODAY

LOOKING FOR THAT JOURNAL AND THEY COULDN�T FIND IT -

THEY MIGHT BE SEARCHING HIS HOUSE IN CASE HE LEFT IT THERE.

WHATEVER IT IS MUST BE IMPORTANT.

GUYS, WE GOT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO READ THIS.

I MIGHT BE ABLE TO BREAK THE CIPHERTEXT,

BUT I NEED A COMPUTER TO RUN SOME NUMBERS.

I�VE GOT THREE LAPTOPS AND A TABLET AT MY PLACE.

WE CAN ALL GO HANG WHILE YOU FIGURE IT OUT.

COME ON. YEAH. LET�S GO.

OKAY. LET�S GO.

IF WE GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS,

WE�RE GONNA BE THE TALK OF THE TOWN.

WE MIGHT EVEN GET A NOD ON THE "EYES OF THE PEACOCK" BLOG.

I NEVER READ THOSE GOSSIP SITES.

BUT IT ISN�T ONE.

IT�S MORE LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN A BLOG, A TUMBLOG,

A VIDBLOG, AND A LINKBLOG.

SOUNDS COOL, RIGHT?

I REALLY LIKE LIKE IT.

HEY, SLOW UP. WE HAVE TO TALK. NO, WE DON�T.

LET�S JUST GET THROUGH THIS AND GET BACK TO OUR LIVES.

JUST LISTEN TO ME, OKAY?

I DON�T WANT TO FREAK EVERYONE OUT.

NOW, DON�T LOOK BACK, BUT SINCE WE LEFT ELLIS� PLACE,

I�VE SEEN THE SAME BLACK MOTORCYCLE

ALWAYS ABOUT A BLOCK BEHIND US.

I THINK SOMEONE�S FOLLOWING US.

[ ENGINE REVVING ]

THAT BIKE IS STILL ON OUR TAIL.

JUST SAY THE WORD.

I�M READY WHEN YOU ARE.

HEY.

I WAS THINKING WE COULD STOP FOR PICKUP.

SURE. OR WE COULD JUST ORDER IN.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS, BUZZES ]

WHOA!

YOU WANT THAI, INDIAN, CHINESE?

YEAH, LET�S JUST DO PIZZA.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS, BUZZES ]

I KNOW AN AWESOME SLICE DOWN THE BLOCK.

THIS WAY, GUYS.

READY?

NOW!

WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU GUYS DOING?!

[ TIRES SCREECH ]

WHY WERE YOU FOLLOWING US?

WHO ARE YOU?

MY NAME IS SARAH ELLIS.

WHOA.

MR. NO-BODY IS YOUR DAD?

I WAS WAITING FOR THOSE MEN TO LEAVE MY FATHER�S HOUSE,

AND I SAW YOU GO UP TO THE DOOR.

WE THINK THEY WERE LOOKING FOR THIS.

WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?

[ SIGHS ] YOU GUYS, THIS IS SO NOT COOL.

WE HAVE TO TELL HER.

TELL ME WHAT?

WE SAW YOUR FATHER LAST NIGHT

AT THE CRESCENT ARMS HOTEL.

HE WAS...

HE WAS...

WE SAW THOSE MEN ATTACK HIM.

WHAT?!

NO! WHY?! WHY?! WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?!

WE DON�T KNOW.

WE CALLED THE POLICE,

BUT NOBODY WAS FOUND, AND NO ONE BELIEVES US.

I NEED YOU TO TAKE ME THERE. I NEED YOU TO SHOW ME.

WE HAVEN�T SPOKEN IN WEEKS.

I CAME DOWN TO THE CITY BECAUSE I WAS SO WORRIED.

HE�S BEEN ACTING...STRANGE EVER SINCE GRANDDAD DIED,

AND WITH MOM OUT OF THE PICTURE...

WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO HURT MY DAD?

THE ANSWER MIGHT BE IN THE JOURNAL.

IF WE COULD JUST FIGURE OUT THE SUBSTITUTION KEY.

IT REFERS TO SOME SORT OF SECRET.

I NEED A MINUTE.

IS THAT SARAH ELLIS?

IS IT?

JACOB: We just spotted Sarah Ellis, sir.

SARAH. WHAT�S SHE DOING THERE?

I don�t know, sir.

We�re about to check room 33 again.

WELL, WE DON�T WANT ANY LOOSE ENDS, JACOB.

I WANT HER BROUGHT TO ME IMMEDIATELY.

On it, sir.

MISS ELLIS, WE WORK FOR YOUR FATHER.

I�LL NEED YOU TO COME WITH US.

Lucas: IT COULD BE A TELEPHONE-KEYPAD CIPHER,

A NUMBER-SUBSTITUTION CIPHER.

NO WORRIES, EVERYBODY.

PROFESSOR PLUM HERE�S ON THE CASE.

HEY. WOULD YOU CUT HIM SOME SLACK?

WHO?

PLUM-LOCK HOLMES?

SERIOUSLY, SEAMUS. QUIT IT.

AH, COME ON. HE LIKES THE ATTENTION.

RIGHT, COUNT PLUM-ULA?

STOP...WITH...THE...NAMES!

WHO KNEW HE HAD IT IN HIM?

I�M AN IDIOT.

I DIDN�T SAY IT.

NAMES.

HE CALLS SO MUCH ATTENTION TO THEM.

IT�S ALL ABOUT THE NAMES.

THE NAMES IN THE INSCRIPTION.

"FROM CHARLES ELLIS TO ADAM ELLIS,

FROM ADAM ELLIS TO SARAH J. ELLIS."

NINE NAMES, NINE CAPITAL LETTERS.

SO NINE REPRESENTS THE LETTER "A"

IN THE CIPHERTEXT ALPHABET.

THEN 10 IS "B," 11 "C," 12 "D," AND SO ON.

UH, SARAH HAS TO SEE THIS.

WHERE IS SHE, ANYWAY?

NOT IN THE LOBBY OR ON THE STREET.

Liz: I CHECKED THE BATHROOMS AND THE LOUNGE.

UNBELIEVABLE!

WE�VE LOST TWO ELLISES IN TWO DAYS.

WHO KNOWS? MAYBE SHE GOT A LINE ON HER DAD

AND SHE HAD TO SPLIT OR SOMETHING.

SHE WOULDN�T HAVE LEFT WITHOUT THE JOURNAL.

DID YOU FIGURE OUT WHAT IT SAYS?

IT�S AN ADDRESS HERE IN THE CITY.

AND THE NEXT PART, "MY INHERITANCE IS KEPT SAFE.

"HERE ARE HIDDEN SECRETS SO GREAT,

THEY COULD EITHER SAVE THE WORLD OR DESTROY IT."

WE GONNA GONNA CHECK OUT THIS INHERITANCE OR WHAT?

Agnes: ARE YOU SURE THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE?

Lucas: ACCORDING TO ELLIS� JOURNAL,

WE ARE STANDING ON THE THRESHOLD OF AWESOME RESPONSIBILITY.

LET�S CHECK IT OUT.

I�M SO NOT WEARING THE RIGHT SHOES FOR THIS.

YOU GUYS COMING OR WHAT?

[ CREAKING ]

[ CLANG ]

Dmitri: GUYS, LOOK.

Whitney: WHAT IS THAT?

LUCAS.

THERE�S AN ENTRANCE COMBO.

I DECIPHERED IT FROM THE JOURNAL.

27...

0...

9...

3, 3.

Seamus: MAN, AS FAR AS INHERITANCE GOES,

I GIVE ADAM ELLIS A 3.5.

SOMETHING JUST RAN OVER MY FOOT.

Agnes: OKAY. I�M OFFICIALLY PAST MY COMFORT LEVEL.

LET�S GO BACK NOW.

[ RUMBLING ] [ GASPS ]

HOLD ON. LET ME TRY SOMETHING.

O.M.G.!

Lucas: WHOA! LOOK AT THIS!

THIS PLACE IS COMPLETELY AWESOME.

[ RUMBLING ]

EVERYONE BE CAREFUL, OKAY?

COOL!

I WANT ONE OF THESE!

[ CHUCKLES ]

DO YOU THINK ELLIS BROUGHT ALL THIS STUFF DOWN HERE?

WHAT�S IT ALL FOR?

WHO KNOWS?

MAYBE IT�S THE FABLED LONG-LOST UNDERGROUND FLEA MARKET.

[ SCOFFS ]

HEY, LIZ, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

OF COURSE. YEAH. TOTALLY.

HEY, GUYS. OVER HERE.

QUICK. LOOK AT THESE DIAGRAMS.

Whitney: WAIT.

IS-ISN�T THAT...?

Lucas: IT�S THE MURDER WEAPON.

THE KILLERS DIDN�T BRING IT TO THE HOTEL.

ADAM ELLIS DID.

WHAT WAS ADAM ELLIS DOING IN THE HOTEL ROOM

WITH A CANDLESTICK?

Agnes: THAT�S THE MURDER WEAPON.

WHO�S THE GUY WITH THE MUSTACHE?

Whitney: SOMEONE ELLIS KNEW A LOT ABOUT.

Seamus: UNDERGROUND LAIRS, FREAKY CANDLESTICKS.

[ GRUNTS ]

WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?

Lucas: ELLIS TOOK THAT CANDLESTICK

TO TESLA�S HOTEL ROOM FOR A REASON.

Sarah: WHATEVER�S GOING ON HERE, MR. WHITTAKER...

WHO IS THIS? ...I WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH.
