PREVIOUSLY ON "CLUE"...

Whitney: GUYS! CALL 911.

AS FAR AS WE CAN TELL, IT NEVER HAPPENED.

NO ONE BELIEVES WE SAW WHAT WE SAW.

Dmitri: SO WE FIND OUT WHO MR. NO-BODY IS.

Lucas: "FROM ADAM ELLIS TO SARAH J. ELLIS."

[ TIRES SCREECH ]

MY NAME IS SARAH ELLIS. MR. NO-BODY IS YOUR DAD?

I WANT HER BROUGHT TO ME IMMEDIATELY.

Agnes: O.M.G.!

THE KILLERS DIDN�T BRING IT TO THE HOTEL.

ADAM ELLIS DID.

GUYS, YOU HAVE GOT TO SEE THIS.

Agnes: THAT�S THE MURDER WEAPON.

WHO�S THE GUY WITH THE MUSTACHE?

SOMEONE ELLIS KNEW A LOT ABOUT.

"LOST TREASURES OF NIKOLA TESLA."

THE FRONT-DESK CLERK SAID TESLA LIVED IN ROOM 33

IN THE OLD WING OF THE HOTEL.

SO, WHO WAS HE?

AN INVENTOR IN THE EARLY 1900s.

WHOA, COOL STORY, BRO. TELL IT AGAIN.

Shh!

WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?

UNDERGROUND LAIRS, FREAKY CANDLESTICKS.

I WAS JUST LOOKING TO GET MY WEEKEND GIG BACK.

FOR ONCE, I AGREE WITH SEAMUS.

I�M CALLING THOSE COPS LAST NIGHT FROM THE HOTEL.

WHOA. WAIT. IS THAT A GOOD IDEA?

THE JOURNAL SAID ELLIS

WAS SUPPOSED TO GUARD THIS PLACE WITH HIS LIFE.

THE PROOF WE SAW WHAT WE SAW HAS TO BE IN HERE SOMEWHERE.

LET�S LET THE COPS SORT IT OUT.

BUT WE�LL PROBABLY MAKE THE NEWS.

AND LOOK WHAT I�M WEARING. I MEAN, COME - COME ON.

HELLO?

WE SHOULD PUT IT TO A VOTE.

WE�RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER, AREN�T WE?

NO. MAN, THE ONLY THING WE HAVE IN COMMON

IS THE UNFORTUNATE BAD LUCK

TO BE AT THE SAME PLACE AT THE SAME TIME.

WHAT IS IT WITH YOUR ATTITUDE?

[ SCOFFS ]

I NEVER THOUGHT MY DAD WOULD BE RIGHT ABOUT YOU PEOPLE.

BUT I GUESS I SHOULDN�T EXPECT MUCH FROM A JOCK, A GOSSIP,

A FLIRT, A LOSER, AND A BLEEDING HEART.

OH, YEAH? SO, WHAT ARE YOU?

OUR RESIDENT CONDESCENDING JERK?

Dmitri: IT�S DONE.

I TOLD THEM TO MEET US AT THE CORNER,

SO WE SHOULD GET TOPSIDE.

Lucas: LISTEN, WHITNEY, ABOUT WHAT I SAID BEFORE...

YOU WERE JUST TRYING TO STAND UP

FOR WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS RIGHT.

ANYWAYS, YOUR DAD SAID ALL THAT STUFF, NOT YOU.

MY FOLKS ARE JUST WAY OVERPROTECTIVE.

THEY�RE GONNA FREAK OUT ON ME WHEN I GET HOME.

[ CHUCKLES ]

YOU GUYS, LOOK!

WHAT ARE THEY DOING HERE?

[ TIRES SCREECH ]

RUN!

WHAT�S GOING ON, MR. WHITTAKER?

WHAT�S HAPPENED TO MY DAD?

HE HASN�T BEEN IN THE OFFICE IN WEEKS.

HE DOESN�T ANSWER HIS PHONE.

IT�S LIKE HE�S VANISHED INTO THIN AIR.

I�VE HAD MY BEST MEN OUT LOOKING FOR HIM FOR DAYS.

WHY NOT THE POLICE?

POLICE MEANS PRESS,

AND PRESS MEANS SHAREHOLDER ATTENTION.

IT�S MY JOB TO PROTECT THE COMPANY�S INTEREST.

WHEN DID YOU LAST HEAR FROM YOUR FATHER?

HE WAS SUPPOSED TO COME TO MY SCHOOL YESTERDAY FOR A MEETING

AND NEVER SHOWED.

WHY LOOK FOR HIM AT THE CRESCENT ARMS?

HE CALLED ME FROM THERE YESTERDAY.

WHY WERE YOUR MEN OUTSIDE?

WELL, OH, WE WERE TRACING HIS CREDIT-CARD RECORDS

AND FOUND A RESERVATION.

BELIEVE ME, SARAH, WE ARE LEAVING NO STONE UNTURNED.

I SHOULD BE OUT LOOKING FOR HIM.

I REALLY THINK YOU SHOULD STAY...

UNTIL WE HAVE SOME ANSWERS.

I MEAN, FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, OF COURSE.

Lucas: STOP. STOP, STOP, STOP.

[ PANTING ] I GOT A "C" IN GYM.

OKAY, THAT�S NOT TRUE. I FAILED GYM.

COME ON, BUDDY. YOU CAN DO THIS.

MAN, WE HAVE TO SPLIT UP.

NO. WE STICK TOGETHER.

UM...

I KNOW A PLACE! I KNOW A PLACE! COME ON!

[ TIRES SCREECH ]

GO, GO, GO!

OH, MY GOD. GO!

Dmitri: THIS IS YOUR PLAN?!

A DEAD END?!

JUST LET ME THINK.

[ SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE ]

GIVE ME A HAND.

COME ON!

COME ON, WE JUST PUT THE BOARD ACROSS,

CROSS IT, PULL THE PLANK AWAY,

AND THERE�S NO WAY THEY CAN MAKE THIS JUMP.

THERE�S NO WAY I�M GETTING ON THAT.

I HAVE VERTIGO ISSUES. JUST DON�T LOOK DOWN.

THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER WAY.

Liz: THEY�RE RIGHT BEHIND US! WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!

[ PANTING ]

WHERE THE HECK ARE THEY?

THEY CROSSED OVER.

OH, COME ON!

BY THE TIME WE�RE BACK ON THE STREET, THEY�LL BE LONG GONE.

ARE YOU SURE THEY�RE THE SAME KIDS FROM THE HOTEL?

OF COURSE IT�S THE SAME KIDS FROM THE HOTEL.

I ASKED THE COPS TO KEEP US IN THE LOOP

AND LET US KNOW IF THOSE TROUBLEMAKERS CAME AROUND AGAIN.

I SAID WE�D SAVE THEM THE PAPERWORK.

SMART MOVE TELLING THEM WE WERE HOTEL SECURITY,

BUT WHAT DO WE TELL THE BOSS?

WE GOT SMOKED BY A BUNCH OF TEENAGERS

WHO MIGHT HAVE SEEN WHAT WENT DOWN AT THE HOTEL LAST NIGHT.

WOW. TOTAL HONESTY. THAT�S A BOLD MOVE.

IT�S CALLED SARCASM.

HE�S BUSY WITH THE ELLIS GIRL,

SO WE DON�T SAY A WORD TO MR. WHITTAKER.

DOES HE STILL WANT HER BROUGHT OUT TO EAST BAY TERMINAL?

NOT UNTIL MORNING.

THAT WAS FREAKING BRILLIANT, SEAMUS.

HOW DO YOU EVEN KNOW ABOUT THIS PLACE?

UH...

I GOT SOME FRIENDS WHO HANG HERE.

YOU�RE IN WITH THE GREEN SCENE?

WHAT�S THE GREEN SCENE?

Agnes: [ SCOFFS ] NOT WHAT, WHO.

THEY DO THESE POP-UP ART SHOWS AND PARTIES ALL OVER THE CITY.

I THINK WE HAVE MORE TO WORRY ABOUT THAN SPRAY PAINT.

THEY SAID SARAH WAS WITH SOMEONE NAMED WHITTAKER.

HE�S THE C.E.O. OF CHARLES ELLIS INDUSTRIES.

THE GUYS WHO ATTACKED ELLIS WORK FOR HIM.

TALK ABOUT A HOSTILE TAKEOVER.

THE POINT IS THAT THEY HAVE SARAH.

WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO ABOUT IT?

MAYBE WE SHOULD TELL OUR PARENTS.

TELL THEM WHAT, EXACTLY?

NO ONE BELIEVES US AS IT IS.

THEY MIGHT IF SARAH BACKED US UP.

WHITNEY�S RIGHT. SARAH COULD BE OUR ONLY WAY OFF THE HOOK.

THEY�RE NOT MOVING HER UNTIL MORNING,

SO RIGHT NOW WE GO HOME.

[ RUMBLING ]

[ CREAKING ]

[ MUSIC BOX PLAYING ]

THERE DOESN�T SEEM TO BE ANYONE HERE.

YEAH, IT LOOKS PRETTY DEAD.

LOOK, I NEED YOU ALL TO JUST HANG OUT HERE

WHILE I CHECK IT OUT, OKAY?

WHAT - WHAT IF THOSE GUYS SHOW UP?

JUST KEEP LOOKOUT FROM HERE -

A GOOD SIGHT LINE SO YOU WON�T GET BOXED IN.

JUST STAY FROSTY SO I CAN DO A QUICK STEALTH OPS RECON, OKAY?

STEALTH OPS RECON?

THAT�S FROM "M.U.S.T.A.R.D. MISSIONS," ISN�T IT?

EAGLE SCOUT�S A GAMER. WHO KNEW?

IT�S NOT A VIDEO GAME.

IT�S A MULTI-PLAYER STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENT.

I�M THE ONLY ONE ON MY SERVER AT THE COLONEL LEVEL.

I�VE GOT THIS.

DON�T WORRY, COLONEL MUSTARD. I CAN KEEP UP.

[ CELLPHONE BUZZES ]

THEY�RE HERE.

FIND SOMEPLACE TO HIDE, QUICK.

MR. ELLIS?

YOU�RE ALIVE?

GO!

Man: CARRY THE CASE.

STOP COMPLAINING!

I�M CARRYING IT, TOO.

YOU READY TO TELL US WHERE YOU HID YOUR FATHER�S JOURNAL?

HELLO?

[ Laughing ] OH, YEAH. THE GAG.

RIGHT.

[ SIGHS ] HELLO.

LET ME GET THAT FOR YOU.

WHAT ABOUT THIS?

HUH? HOW�S IT WORK?

TRY A MATCH.

A MATCH?

OH, THAT�S REALLY PRETTY.

WHERE�D YOU GET IT?

UM...SORT OF A FAMILY HEIRLOOM, I GUESS.

DID THEY TEXT YOU YET?

UM...

NO. NOTHING.

I�M GOING IN.

MR. WHITTAKER, WE�RE WITH ELLIS.

He�s still not ready to cooperate, sir.

We can try a dose of truth serum or something more physical.

DOSE HIM WITH SODIUM PENTOTHAL.

I DON�T WANT HIM HURT - NOT YET, ANYWAY.

DOSE HIM. And make sure that building�s secure.

ALL RIGHT. WHAT ABOUT THE GIRL?

She�s here with me.

NO NEED TO DRAW HER INTO THIS.

DRAW ME INTO WHAT?

WHATEVER�S GOING ON HERE, MR. WHITTAKER,

I WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH.

YES, OF COURSE.

FOLLOW ME.

[ BEEPING ]

THIS IS MY SAFE ROOM.

I HAD IT INSTALLED SOME YEARS AGO.

IT�S COMPLETELY SOUNDPROOF, REINFORCED STEEL DOORS.

THERE�S FOOD, DRINK.

EVEN HAS CABLE TELEVISION.

AND NO ONE KNOWS IT�S HERE...

EXCEPT THE MEN WHO INSTALLED IT.

[ BEEPING ]

NO, WAIT!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

LET ME OUT OF HERE! ARE YOU CRAZY?!

COME ON!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

CHECKING ON YOU.

WHERE�S DMITRI?

HE WENT UPSTAIRS.

HE SAID TO SECURE THE PLACE.

HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO SECURE THE PLACE?

IF THE BOSS SAYS SECURE IT, WE�LL SECURE IT AGAIN.

WHOA. NO WAY. IS THAT WHO I THINK IT IS?

MR. ELLIS.

WHAT�S WRONG WITH HIM?

Shh! THEY�RE DOWNSTAIRS.

THEY GAVE HIM SOME KIND OF SERUM,

SAID THAT THEY�D BE BACK ONCE IT TOOK EFFECT.

WELL, THEN WE HAVE TO GET HIM OUT OF HERE.

YOU GOT A HACKSAW HANDY?

WHO...

WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?

WE�RE HERE TO HELP.

NO.

NO, YOU HAVE TO LEAVE.

THEY WON�T HURT ME. THEY JUST -

THEY WANT WHAT I KNOW.

WHY WERE YOU IN ROOM 33 AT THE CRESCENT ARMS HOTEL?

AND WHAT�S SO IMPORTANT ABOUT THAT CANDLESTICK?

IT DOESN�T MATTER. JUST GO.

WE�RE FRIENDS OF YOUR DAUGHTER, SARAH, MR. ELLIS.

SARAH.

IT�S A KEY.

THEY TOOK IT BEFORE I COULD USE IT,

BUT THEY DON�T KNOW HOW IT WORKS.

WHATEVER THEY GAVE HIM, IT�S OBVIOUSLY MESSING WITH HIS HEAD.

NO! NO, THE KEY LIGHTS THE WAY.

THEY�RE ALL KEYS. MY FATHER TOLD ME.

HE...

ALL KEYS TO THE SECRETS.

I WAS SUPPOSED TO BRING IT FOR SARAH.

SHE�S IN TROUBLE.

YOU CAN�T STAY. PLEASE.

WE�LL FIND A WAY TO HELP YOU.

I PROMISE. WE�LL GET THE KEY BACK.

ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE CANDLESTICK?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

WHITTAKER�S MEN THINK IT�S JUST AS IMPORTANT AS HE DOES.

WE ARE NOT LEAVING WITHOUT IT.

[ CLANK ]

THERE IT IS IN THAT CASE.

DOES COLONEL MUSTARD HERE GOT A PLAN?

WATCH ME CALL IN AN AIR STRIKE.

[ CELLPHONE BUZZES ]

THEY NEED US TO MAKE SOME NOISE.

[ THUD, GLASS SHATTERS, ALARM BLARING, HORN HONKING ]

GO! CHECK THE BACK! ALL RIGHT.

[ CAR ALARM CHIRPS ]

GUYS, WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE NOW.

THEY DIDN�T BRING SARAH.

NO, BUT THEY HAVE ELLIS TIED UP IN THERE.

HE�S ALIVE? NO WAY. SERIOUSLY?

AND YOU LEFT HIM THERE?

WE COULDN�T GET HIM OUT OF THERE,

SO WE TOOK SOMETHING WHITTAKER WANTS INSTEAD -

THE CANDLESTICK. HE SAID IT WAS SOME KIND OF KEY.

WHAT DOES IT UNLOCK?

LET�S FIND OUT. LET�S GO.

ELLIS TOOK THAT CANDLESTICK TO TESLA�S HOTEL ROOM FOR A REASON.

HEY, GUYS.

PROFESSOR PLUM�S ONTO SOMETHING.

COME ON.

Lucas: HE HAD THIS PAGE MARKED.

"PARTICLE BEAM WEAPONS,

"AIRCRAFT POWERED BY MAGNETIC FORCE,

"WIRELESS ENERGY TRANSMISSION.

"MANY BELIEVE TESLA�S GREATEST INNOVATIONS

"WERE HIDDEN BY THE INVENTOR,

AS HE BELIEVED MANKIND MIGHT NOT USE THEM WISELY."

YOU THINK TESLA HID SOMETHING IN ROOM 33?

WELL, LIKE WHAT?

WELL, WHAT IT IS DOESN�T REALLY MATTER, DOES IT?

I MEAN, WHAT�S REALLY IMPORTANT IS HOW BADLY WHITTAKER WANTS IT.

BADLY ENOUGH TO ATTACK HIS BOSS AND HOLD HIM PRISONER.

AND GRAB HIS DAUGHTER.

OR TO MAKE A DEAL WITH US.

ONE HE WON�T BE ABLE TO REFUSE.

[ DOORBELL RINGS ]

[ CELLPHONE BUZZING ]

[ CELLPHONE BEEPS ]

WHO IS THIS?

SOMEONE WHO TOOK SOMETHING FROM YOU AND WANTS TO RETURN IT.

I�M LISTENING.

WE KNOW ABOUT THE TREASURE IN THE HOTEL ROOM.

IF YOU WANT THE KEY BACK,

then give us Adam Ellis and his daughter, Sarah.

NO, I THINK NOT.

rules.

You have the key, you know how to retrieve the treasure.

HOW DO I KNOW YOU HAVEN�T ALREADY?

I WANT THEM BOTH - THE KEY AND THE TREASURE - OR NO DEAL.

I ASSUME YOU�RE FAMILIAR WITH THE EAST BAY TERMINAL.

WE MAKE THE EXCHANGE THERE TOMORROW AT 7:00 A.M.

Don�t be late.

[ SIGHS ]

WE�RE ON.

THESE ARE NUMBERED.

DOES THAT MEAN SOMETHING?

SIGN LANGUAGE? LIKE SEMAPHORE?

YOU�D THINK TESLA WOULD HAVE LEFT AN INSTRUCTION MANUAL.

MAYBE HE DID LEAVE INSTRUCTIONS.

CAREFUL, LIZ. DON�T BREAK IT.

[ CLICK, ELECTRICITY CRACKLES ]

[ GASPS ]

DID YOU GUYS SEE THAT? KEEP DOING IT.

[ CLICK, ELECTRICITY CRACKLES ]

ARE YOU OKAY?

KIND OF TICKLES. [ CHUCKLES ]

MUST BE A STATIC CHARGE.

ELLIS SAID THE KEY WOULD LIGHT THE WAY.

TESLA WORKED WITH ELECTRIC POWER.

[ CLICK, ELECTRICITY CRACKLES ]

MAYBE HE MEANT LIGHT THE WAY LITERALLY.

UH-OH. ALBERT PLUM-STEIN IS HAVING ONE OF HIS MOMENTS AGAIN.

I AM. I AM HAVING A MOMENT.

IT�S NOT JUST A CANDLESTICK.

IT�S TESLA�S VERSION OF A KEY - SOME KIND

OF STATIC-CHARGE-GENERATING ELECTROMAGNETIC AWESOMENESS.

SO, UM, HOW DO WE USE IT?

I�M NOT 100% SURE.

WHERE WE�RE SUPPOSED TO USE IT.

Liz: SOMETHING�S HAPPENING.

IT�S GETTING HARDER TO MOVE.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]

LOOK!

WHAT?

Lucas: WOW! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

THE CANDLESTICK MUST BE AN ELECTROMAGNET.

THE SERIES OF POSITIONS ON THE DIAGRAM

BUILD THE CHARGE THAT POWERS IT.

IT�S A MAGNETIC KEY TO A MAGNETIC LOCK.

I THINK I NEED A HAND HERE.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]

GUYS... NO WAY.

LAST THREE.

WHAT�S HAPPENING?

CAN WE GET SOME HELP HERE?

YEAH. GOT IT.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]

[ GRUNTS ]

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]

GUYS, WHAT IS THAT?

HERE YOU GO, MAN.

Lucas: GOT IT!

YEAH.

WE GOT A WHOLE LOT OF NOTHING.

GREAT.

WATERMELON JELLY BEANS, SPOTTED SNOW LEOPARDS,

CARNIVAL BARKERS, OPPOSABLE THUMBS.

DUDE, QUIT IT, MAN. I�M TRYING TO THINK.

THAT�S THE POINT. DON�T THINK.

STOP THINKING.

THE DISTRACTED MIND IS MORE PRONE TO PUZZLE-SOLVING

THAN THE CONCENTRATED ONE.

WAIT, THAT�S TOTALLY BACKWARDS.

IT�S SCIENTIFIC FACT - THE "AHA" MOMENT.

THEY HAD A FEATURE ABOUT IT IN THE PLUM INSTITUTE NEWSLETTER.

SOMEONE TELL ME A JOKE, ASK ME 20 QUESTIONS,

TICKLE ME.

I�M GONNA TRY AND PRETEND YOU DIDN�T JUST SAY THAT.

COME ON. THE ANSWER�S PROBABLY RIGHT IN FRONT OF US.

NO.

NO, THE ANSWER IS ALL AROUND US.

THAT�S WHAT I�M SAYING.

NO, THAT�S SAYING.

A-FREAKING-HA. I�VE GOT IT.

UH, OKAY, SO, ALL THIS STUFF, EVERYTHING IN HERE,

IS TAGGED WITH A NINE-DIGIT NUMBER.

SO THE NUMBERS ON THE CARDS WE FOUND IN ROOM 33

MUST MATCH UP TO THREE OBJECTS IN THIS ROOM.

Dmitri: GOT IT. I FOUND THE LAST ONE.

MAYBE THE TAGS ARE MIXED UP OR SOMETHING.

THE CANDLESTICK WAS A KEY.

THIS STUFF HAS TO BE MORE THAN IT SEEMS AT FIRST GLANCE.

WELL, I�M AT GLANCE SIX,

AND I�M STILL COMING UP BLANK.

GUYS, IF WE�RE GONNA MAKE THIS TRADE WITH WHITTAKER,

WE GOT TO FIGURE THIS OUT.

AGNES IS RIGHT. WE DON�T HAVE A CHOICE.

IT�S NOT JUST ABOUT US.

MR. ELLIS AND HIS DAUGHTER�S LIVES ARE ON THE LINE.

WELL, HOW CAN A BRASS 3, AN 80-YEAR-OLD MAGAZINE,

AND AN X-RAY OF A HAND POSSIBLY LEAD TO A TREASURE?

GUYS, THESE CLUES - THEY MUST HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH EACH OTHER.

Whitney: WE TOLD WHITTAKER WE�D BE READY TO MAKE THE EXCHANGE

FOR ELLIS AND SARAH IN THE MORNING.

Dmitri: WE�LL SPLIT UP INTO GROUPS OF TWO, AND THEN WE�LL COVER MORE GROUND.

Lucas: IT�S NOT THE PUZZLE, REALLY. IT�S THE MOMENT YOU SOLVE IT.

NOBODY STEALS FROM RANDOLPH WHITTAKER

AND GETS AWAY WITH IT.

WE CAN FIGURE THIS OUT.

WHITTAKER SAID WE HAD A DEAL.
