The Ring of the Fisherman,
which bears the official papal seal

must be destroyed immediately
following the pope's death

The papal apartment is then sealed
for 9 days of mourning

a period known as sede vacante

The time of the empty throne

Over the last several days

Catholic leaders from every corner
of the world.

have flocked to Rome,
shocked by the sudden death

of this progressive
and beloved pope .

Today in St. Peter's Square,

the faithful pray
that there is among them

another leader
who can unite their Church,

which has been so riven by change
and dissent in recent years.

As the body of the pontiff
passee by,

we see prayers are being offered
by the preferiti,

favorites among those
being considered

to succeed him
as the Vicar of Christ

At the end of the mourning period
the College of Cardinals

will lock itself behind the doors
of the Sistine Chapel for conclave,

the process by which they
will choose a new leader

for the world's
1 billion Catholics

who now find their Church
at a crossroads,

its ancient traditions threatened
by a modern world.

Attention, control

We are powering up.

Attention, Category One personnel:

Interlock areas are now restricted.

You pulled us
off the power grid, Philippe.

Because you're
scaring the he'll out of everyone.

The colder was never intended
to generate antimatter.

All 3 canisters are
stored under every possible safeguard.

I'm only asking you to wait.

We can't wait. The bull of the
anti-matter is generated at start-up.

Put us back online.

Do you want to call the
director, or shall I?

ATLAS underground
is now in restricted mode.

Vittoria, Vittoria.

Protons are being loaded.

Don't blow us all to heaven.

Please.

Powering on LHC magnets.

Ion source stage

We are powering up. Here we go.

Start the collision sequence.

Vittoria, what did Philippe want?

They're terrified. He
wants us to wait. What do you think?

I think if we don't
harvest now, we never will.

Beam-on-beam stability is good.
Take your places, people.

ATLAS at CMS, check.

Sending timing trigger now.
Collisions imminent.

We have got 10 to the
13th protons per bunch.

Let's hope the heavy ion guys
didn't mess up.

We have a signal on
the luminosity monitors.

We have events.

Protons are moving.

We have anti-matter.

It's on a scale never seen before.

That's a crate of beer on the way.

Silvano, we've done it.

We're in God's hands now, Vittoria.

I'll be right down.

Silvano.

Silvano.

Oh, God.

Help!

A swim might help your jet lag.

I beg your pardon?

You got bags under your eyes.
It's 5 in the morning.

And you're from the Vatican.

Crossed keys
under the triregnum.

It's a papal symbol.

Claudio Vincenzi, Corpo
della Gendarmeria Vaticano.

Vatican police?

I was expecting another letter.

My request for access
to your archives.

Shouldn't you be in Rome?

A kind of busy time for you guys,
isn't it?

In fact, I was in New York,
detailed to the U.N.

I receive a phone call
in the middle of the night:

"Find Professor Robert Langdon.

A matter of great urgency."

They said to show you this.

The Illuminati? They
disappeared hundreds of years ago.

Did they? Look at that again.

It's an ambigram.

It's the same image
forward and backward.

Now, that's common for a symbol,
like a yin and yang or a swastika,

but that's a word.

That Illuminati
ambigramatic symbol

has been considered
a myth for 400 years.

Supposedly,
in the 16th century

some artist created it as a tribute
to Galileo's love of symmetry.

It was only gonna
be revealed

when the Illuminati
had amassed enough power

to resurface and carry out
their final goal.

I wrote a book about it.

Which is why you're here.

The Art of the Illuminati
by Robert Langdon.

Part One.

Haven't been able to finish Part 2
because I'm not allowed access

to your archives.

It's remarkable. Singular.

Someone is trying
to make you believe

the Illuminati themselves
have returned to Rome.

Right after the death of a pope.

4 cardinals were kidnapped from
their quarters inside the Vatican

sometime between
3 and 5 a.m. this morning.

Shortly afterward,

that document was sent to the
Office of the Swiss Guard

along with the threat the cardinals
will be publicly executed

one per hour, beginning at 8 p.m.
tonight in Rome.

Conclave.
Was to begin today.

We've postponed its start for a
few hours, a story of illness.

There are no suspicions yet.

What do you want from me?

These criminals
who sent this ambigram

meant it as a taunt,
a provocation.

But Captain Olivetti think if you
can use it to learn their identity,

perhaps we can stop
this abomination.

Why me?

Your expertise. Your erudition.

Your recent involvement with
certain Church, shall we say,

mysteries.

I wasn't under the impression
that episode

had endeared me
to the Vatican.

Oh, it didn't.

But it did make you--
What's the word?

formidabile.

Formidable.

A Vatican jet is standing by
20 minutes from here.

Will you come with me?

Professore Langdon,
you've spent your life

searching for symbols like the
one you now hold in your hand.

How much longer are we
going to pretend

you have not already
decided to come?

if the Illuminati
have returned and are in Rome,

we will hunt them down
and kill them.

The Illuminati
did not become violent

until the 17th century. Their name
means "the enlightened ones."

They were physicists and
mathematicians, astronomers.

They were concerned with
the Church's inaccurate teaching

and they were dedicated
to scientific truth.

But the Vatican
didn't like that.

So the Church began to--
How did you say it?

Oh, "hunt them down
and kill them."

Drove them underground.

Into a secret society.

Professor Langdon.
Yes.

Welcome to
Vatican City.

Ernesto Olivetti, inspector general
of the Vatican police force.

My pleasure.
This way, please.

We'll meet in the headquarters
of the Swiss Guard.

I thought you were
Swiss Guard.

No, la Gendarmeria.

We are responsible for everything
inside the Vatican walls

with the exception
of the security of His Holiness

Yeah.
and the Apostolic Palace.

That is Swiss Guard.

The Roman carabinieri are here
as well in an advisory capacity.

So jurisdictionally,
this is...

A goddamn nightmare.

Oh, yes, Pope Pius
IX's great castration.

I beg your pardon?
1857, Pope Pius IX

felt the male form
would inspire lust.

So he took
a hammer and chisel

and unmanned hundreds
of these statues.

The plaster fig leaves
were added later.

Are you anti-Catholic,
Professor Langdon?

No. I'm anti-vandalism.

I urge you to
guard your tone here.

The Swiss Guard is a calling,
not a profession,

and it encourages
a certain zealotry.

Commander Richter,
the head of the Guard,

is a deeply spiritual man,

and he was close to the late pope.
Understood?

Look, I don't study symbols because
I consider them unimportant.

Ceremony, traditions,
it's how we mark our lives.

I just-- I just hope I can help.

So do I.

You were my idea.

Wait here. Please.

Commander?

Commander Richter?

Professor Langdon is here.

Well, we have bigger
problems than that now.

Dr. Vetra?

I'm Commander Richter, comandante
principale of the Swiss Guard.

Thank you for coming.

Hello.

Professor Langdon.
Yes.

What a relief,
the symbologist is here.

This way,
please, Miss Vetra.

The situation
has changed.

We received another threat
from the kidnapper.

The canister was stolen
from our lab around noon yesterday.

The intruder killed my research
partner, Silvano Bentivoglio,

and mutilated him
in order to bypass security.

We use
retinal scanners.

They cut out his eye.

Is that your stolen
canister, Miss Vetra?

Where is that camera,
Number 86?

It's wireless.
It, too, was stolen.

It could be anywhere
inside the Vatican walls.

That canister contains an
extremely combustible substance

called anti-matter.

We need to locate it immediately
or evacuate Vatican City.

I'm quite familiar
with incendiaries, Miss Vetra.

I've never heard of anti-matter
being used as such.

Well, it's never been generated
in significant quantities before.

It's a way of studying the
origins of the universe,

to try to isolate what some
people call "the God particle."

But there are implications
for energy research--

"The God particle"?

What we call it isn't important.

It's what gives
all matter mass.

The thing without which
we could not exist.

You're talking about
the moment of creation.

Yes. In a way, I am.

The anti-matter is suspended there

in an airtight nanocomposite shell
with electromagnets in each end.

But if it were to fall out of suspension
and come in contact with matter,

say, the bottom of the canister,
the two opposing forces

would annihilate one another
violently.

And what might cause it
to fall out of suspension?

The battery going dead.

Which it will, just before midnight.
What kind of annihilation?

How violent?
A cataclysmic event.

A blinding explosion equivalent
to about 5 kilotons.

Vatican City
will be consumed by light.

Those are the exact words
the kidnapper used.

We will destroy your 4 pillars.

We will brand your preferiti

and sacrifice them
on the altars of science,

then bring your church down
upon you.

Vatican City
will be consumed by light.

A shining star at the end
of the Path of illumination.

It's the ancient
illuminati threat.

Destruction of Vatican City
through light.

4 pillars,
there's your kidnapped cardinals.

You didn't tell me they
were the preferiti, the favorites,

to be named the next pope.

Play it again.

We will destroy your 4 pillars.

We will brand your preferential

Wait, stop it. Stop it.

"Brand" them.

That's another Illuminati legend.

This one says that
there are a set of 5 brands,

each one an ambigram.

The first four are the fundamental
elements of science:

Earth, air, fire and water.

The fifth, it's a mystery.

Maybe it's this.

He said they'd be killed publicly.

Yes.

Revenge for la purga.

"La purga"?

Oh, jeez, you guys don't even
read your own history, do you?

1668, the Church kidnapped
4 Illuminati scientists

and branded each one
of them on the chest

with the symbol
of the cross

to purge them of their sins,
and they executed them.

Threw their bodies out into
the street as a warning

to others to stop questioning
Church rulings on scientific matters.

They radicalized them.

The purga created a darker,
more violent Illuminati,

one bent on retribution.

Look how they intend
to finally get it:

Using anti-matter, technology,
to destroy the Church.

Science obliterates religion.

Is there any more?

..and sacrifice them
on the altars of science,

then bring your church down
upon you.

Vatican City will be consumed
by light.

A shining star at the end
of the Path of illumination.

"Path of Illumination."

I need access
to the Vatican archives.

Professor, I don't think
this is the appropriate moment--

Your petition has been denied
seven times.

No, no. This has nothing to do with
my work. The Path of Illumination

is a hidden trail through Rome itself that
leads to the Church of the Illumination,

the place where the Illuminati
would meet in secret.

If I can find the segno, the sign,

that marks the beginning of that
path, the 4 churches along it

may be where he intends
to murder your cardinals.

One every hour at 8, 9, 10 and 11.

Then the device
explodes at midnight.

If we can figure out the first church
and get there before he does,

maybe we can stop it.
But I can't find the start of the path

until I get into the archives.

Even if I wanted to help you,

access to the archives
is only by written decree

by the curator
and the Board of Vatican Librarians.

Or by papal mandate.

Yes, but as you no doubt have heard,
the Holy Father is dead.

What about il camerlengo?

The camerlengo is just a priest here,
the former pope's chamberlain.

Doesn't the power of the Holy See rest
in him during tempe sede vacante?

Fellas, you called me.

His Holiness once told me a pope

was a man torn between
the real world and the divine.

It seems the real world
is upon us tonight.

I'm familiar with Illuminati lore
and the legend of the brandings.

La purga is a dark stain
on this Church's history.

I'm not surprised this ghost
has returned to haunt us.

Comandante, have you begun
the search for this explosive device?

Of course, but it could
be anywhere.

My primary concern at the moment
is the safety of the cardinals.

The Sistine Chapel
is a fortress.

As long as the cardinals are in
conclave, your security concerns

are at a minimum. Devote as
many of your resources--

If you're about to suggest
a naked-eye search

of the entire Vatican City, I will
tell you we do not have the people.

Commander, though I am not His
Holiness, when you are addressing me,

you are addressing this office.
Do you understand?

Yes, Father.

Good.

You said the image on the screen was
illuminated by artificial light.

Might I suggest
methodically cutting power

to various sections of the city.

When the image on the screen goes dark,
you'll have a more specific idea

of the camera's location.

Dr. Vetra, besides yourself
and your research partner,

who else knew
about this anti-matter project?

No one but the research team.
This project was strictly confidential.

But Silvano kept detailed journals.

If he told anyone else

about what we were doing, he
would have made a note of it.

Do you have these journals?

I can have them flown here
from Geneva in an hour.

Please.

Professor Langdon.

Mr. Langdon, you are correct that I
may grant you access to the archives.

Thank you, Padre.

I said that you were correct
that I may, not that I will.

Christianity's most sacred codices
are in that archive.

Given your recent
entanglement with the Church,

there is a question I'd like
to ask you first here,

in the office of His Holiness.

Do you believe in God, sir?

Father, I simply believe
that religion--

I did not ask if you believe
what man says about God.

I asked if you believe in God.

I'm an academic.

My mind tells me I will never

understand God.

And your heart?

Tells me I'm not meant to.

Faith is a gift

that I have yet to receive.

Be delicate with our treasures.

The archives are this way.

Professor Langdon.

If this path really leads
to the Church of Illumination,

that may be where they've
hidden the anti-matter.

"A shining star at the end of
the path." I thought so too.

Follow the path

and we may find the canister
at the end of it.

Can you deactivate the device?
I can change the canister's batteries

as long as we have more
than 5 minutes of life.

That would give us another 24 hours
to get it safely back to CERN.

Robert Langdon.

Vittoria Vetra.

Are you really a symbologist,
or was he mocking you?

Well, both. You're a physicist?

Bio-entanglement physics.
Interconnectivity of life systems.

Okay.

Your project, it was geared
towards energy research?

Eventually, yes.

One speck of anti-matter could
power an entire city for a month.

Or tonight, I guess,
destroy one.

What are we looking for
in the archives?

A bound volume written by Galileo.

Galileo was Illuminati?

Yeah. And an obedient
Catholic who didn't think

the Church and science
were enemies,

but just a different language
telling the same story.

And he wanted like minds
to find the Church of Illumination,

but he couldn't exactly advertise its
location so he created a coded path.

Richter has started to turn off
the power of various grids.

It'll be back on in a minute.

Then some unknown Illuminati
master sculpted four statues.

Each one a tribute to one
of the fundamental elements,

earth, air, fire, water,

and placed the statues out in
public in churches throughout Rome.

Each statue held a clue
pointing to the next.

At the end of the path
was the Church of Illumination.

If you could find that,
you were one of them.

What makes you think he's going
to murder the cardinals in the churches?

The Illuminati
called those four churches

by the special name
L'Altare della scienza.

"Sacrifice them on the altars
of science," he said.

Exactly.

Oh, wow. Look at this.

Excuse me, signore.

Cardinal Strauss, you've been
informed of the situation?

Yeah.

My belief is we should proceed
with the sealing of conclave.

At this late hour? That
would be highly unorthodox.

And yet within Church law. It's in my power.
I am Great Elector.

The cruelest honor
in Christendom.

I have no personal
ambitions, Patrick.

Only those I hold for my Church,
St. Peter's Church,

which is under attack
at its most vulnerable moment.

And this is not a coincidence.

The Church will not fall in a day.
We must evacuate Vatican City.

Oh, that is exactly
what they want.

Publicity and panic.

No, we must not give them
oxygen for the media fire.

But the people
in St. Peter's Square--

Care deeply about their Church,
as we do.

Their faith will sustain them.

Their faith will not protect them
from an explosion.

Well...

We are all bound for heaven
eventually, are we not?

Spoken like one who has enjoyed
the blessings of a long and full life.

Patrick,

do not confuse the power
of the office you temporarily hold

with your true place
here in the Vatican.

You were a favorite
of His Holiness,

but His Holiness
is with his father now.

Mea culpa.

Seal the doors.

Extra Omnes.

Hello. This way, please.

Oh, beautiful.

The chambers are hermetic vaults.

Oxygen is kept
at lowest possible levels.

It's a partial vacuum inside.

So extended stays
are not recommended.

So don't panic if you
feel lightheaded at first.

I'll be just
outside the door.

Watching you, Mr. Langdon.

Conclave will go on without us.

It must, now of all times.

May God forgive you
for what you've done.

Father, if God has issues,

they won't be
with what I've done.

They will be
with what I'm about to do.

it was confiscated
from the Netherlands

by the Vatican
just after Galileo died.

I've been petitioning to see it
for about 10 years

ever since I realized
what was in it.

What makes you so sure
the segno's there?

The number 503.

I kept seeing it over and over again
in Illuminati letters,

scribbled in the margins,
sometimes just signed "503."

It's a numeric clue. But to what?

5? Well, that's a meaningful
number to the Illuminati.

There's the pentagram, Pythagoras,
dozens of other examples in science.

But what about 3?

Didn't make sense until I thought,
"What if it's Roman numerals?"

DIII.
D-three. Galileo's third text.

"Dialogo. Discorso. Diagramma. "

Oh.

Yeah.

Just a few days with this

and I could have
actually finished my book

and sold dozens of copies
at the Harvard bookstore.

"Il Diagramma Veritatis. "

Diagram of Truth.

I know about
Dialogo and Discorsi.

Galileo laid out his theories about
the Earth revolving around the sun.

Yeah, and said the Earth was not
the center of some universe

with heaven above, hell below,
as the Church had said it was.

So they forced him to recant in the second book.
But what was this one?

This is how he got the word out.

This is the truth, not what the
Vatican forced him to write.

Smuggled out of Rome, printed in
Holland on sedge papyrus, see?

That way any scientist that was caught
with a copy could just throw it in water

and Galileo's heresy
would dissolve, disappear.

And between that
and Vatican burnings,

it's possible that
this is the only copy that remains.

And if I'm correct,

the segno is hidden
on page number--

5.

Yeah.

Do you need help
with the Latin?

Sure.

Movement of the planets,
elliptical orbits, heliocentricity.

Sorry, I don't think there's anything
that could be interpreted as a--

Wait, wait, wait.

Do that again.

What is that?

Wait a minute, it's a watermark.
And there's a line of text.

Go back.

It's in English.

English? Why English?

English wasn't used in the Vatican.
It was too polluted.

It was free-thinking.
It was a language of radicals

like Shakespeare and Chaucer.

Here's another one. "The path of
light is laid, the sacred test--"

Will you write this down as I dictate?
Sorry, professor, no time.

Yeah, yeah, what the hell. Yeah.

20 minutes till 8.

Where are we headed?
Hold on, hold on.

I'll tell you in a minute.
Let me see that page again.

Where did you get that paper?

We borrowed it.

"From Santi's earthly tomb
with demon's hole."

Are you insane?

"'Cross Rome the mystic elements
unfold.

The path of light is laid,
the sacred test.

Let angels guide thee
on thy lofty quest."

You removed a document
from the Vatican Archives?

She did.

"From Santi's earthly tomb."

The first marker is at Santi's tomb.
Yeah.

But who's Santi?
Raphael.

Il Raffaello, the sculptor?
Yeah, Santi was his last name.

So the path starts
at Raphael's tomb.

Raphael's buried at the Pantheon.

Isn't the Pantheon a church?
Oldest Catholic church in Rome.

I just pulled a dozen of our best men for this.
You better be right.

This is one of the busiest
spots in all of Rome.

He'd never get away
with it. It's impossible.

The poem implies--
"The poem"? Unbelievable.

I'm basing this operation

on an American's interpretation
of a 400-year-old poem.

The information we have
clearly refers to Raphael's tomb.

And Raphael's tomb
is inside that building.

And because the Vatican destroyed all
of the pagan statues in the late-1800s,

if this is the first marker, whatever clues were
here to lead us to the next church are gone now.

The path is dead. So this is it,
your only chance.

Separate approaches.

No closer than two blocks
and no uniforms. 3 minutes.

And I need a set of eyes inside.

Excuse me?

Two weightlifters in matching black suits and earpieces?
They're hardly disguised.

Well, it's what I have.
Fine, I'll go in.

You don't have communication. You can't carry
a walkie-talkie. It's too conspicuous.

Tourists have cell phones, don't they?
No, no.

You can't send her
in there alone.

All right, I won't.

Don't look so anxious.
We're supposed to be married.

Well, maybe we're not
getting along today, hm?

Hold my hand.

But don't crush it.
Sorry. A nervous newlywed.

Oh, look. Look, honey, the oculus.

That could be
the "demon's hole" in the poem.

Why are the tombs at an angle?

They're facing east
to worship the rising sun.

But this is a Christian church.

New religions often adopt
the existing customs and holidays

to make conversion
less of a shock.

Like the 25th of December?

It's the pagan celebration
of the Unconquered Sun

and also makes a handy date
for the birth of Christ.

Let's check the recesses.
Okay.

I'll go to the right.
I'll meet you at 180 degrees.

Follow me, please.

Now, the Pantheon, which means
"Temple of All Gods,"

was originally built as a temple
to all the gods of ancient Rome

in 27 B.C.

Although the design of the building
is usually credited

to Apollodorus of Damascus...

Robert!

Robert.

It's Raphael's tomb.

But it's the wrong one.
What are you talking about?

He was moved here in 1759, a century
after Diagramma was published.

Where was he
originally buried?

Uh... Urbino, I think.
"Santi's earthly tomb."

What could it possibly be?
"Santi's earthly tomb."

Damn it. Santi's tomb.

It must mean a chapel
that he built.

He's not buried in it,
he designed it.

The "demon's hole,"
it's not that oculus.

It's an undercroft. It's a crypt.

Are there any questions?
Yes.

Yes.

Did Raphael Santi ever design
a chapel with an ossuary annex

and an angel figure commissioned
by the Catholic Church?

I'm sorry, I can only think of one.

One is good.

Wrong? What do you mean, wrong?

It's the Chigi Chapel in the church
of the Santa Maria del Popolo.

It was once called the Capella della
Terra, the Chapel of the Earth.

Earth, the first element. That's it.

You were certain about the Pantheon.
We have 4 minutes.

Back to the Vatican? You can't.

Comandante, if you care at all about
your church, you'll listen to me.

My church?

My church comforts
the sick and dying.

My church feeds
the hungry.

What does your church
do, Mr. Langdon?

That's right,
you don't have one.

Take him if you want.
I'm done with him.

All right, this makes sense. Look, look,
look, right in front of the church.

An obelisk, a lofty pyramid.

Egyptian symbol
adopted by the Illuminati.

If he's going to kill him,
he'll do it here.

8 o'clock.

Robert.

No, no, here. It's an annulus.

Which one is the Chigi Chapel?

It's in one of these apses.

Pyramids in
a Catholic church.

This is it.
This is the Chigi Chapel.

The demon's hole.

But it's askew.

Come here.

Hand me your flashlight.

What's that?

I call as my witness Christ the Lord

who will be my judge,
that my vote is given

to the one before God
I think should be elected.

I elect as the most
high pontiff, Dominic Scolamiero.

Edoardo Rossi.

They are voting for
themselves to prevent a majority.

They are waiting for the preferiti
to be rescued.

Perhaps we should as well, yes?

Not until the smoke is white

will the College of Cardinals
have chosen a new Holy Father.

For now, the Vatican seat
of ultimate power remains vacant.

Get the body out of there, and
search the rest of the building.

Chartrand!
Sir?

Outside, a perimeter.
Secure but invisible.

No lights, no guns,
nobody knows.

Understand?
Yes, sir.

I'm calling all off-duty.

No information.

Is it Raphael?

The chapel is Raphael.

But the sculptures
are Bernini.

The unknown Illuminati master

Bernini?

He worked
for the Church.

Almost exclusively.

But the Illuminati
were infiltrators.

There wasn't a powerful organization
on earth they didn't penetrate

including the Vatican
by hiding in plain sight.

Habakkuk and the Angel.

He's the prophet that predicted
the annihilation of the Earth.

"Let angels guide
thee on thy lofty quest."

This is the first marker.

The path is alive.

Southwest.

It was pointing southwest.

Earth, air, fire, water.
We're looking for a Bernini sculpture

having something
to do with air.

The second church is
somewhere southwest of here.

You're sure this time?

I need a map showing
all the churches of Rome.

I could use it now.

All right, the purple areas with
these black crosses represent the churches.

But nothing intersects the line
until it hits--

Until it hits St. Peter's.
Michelangelo designed St. Peter's,

not Bernini.
Michelangelo designed the Basilica.

Bernini designed
St. Peter's Square.

The second marker must be
a statue in St. Peter's Square.

It's 10 minutes till 9.
Can you go any faster?

Not unless you want the full
attention of the world press.

There was no
consensus after the first ballot,

but Cardinal Baggia, the Italian,
is the odds-on favorite...

There is no new
Pope, but it is possible

that Cardinal Guidera, the
Spaniard, is the most probable...

it is possible that Cardinal
Ebner, from Germany, is the favorite...

Stem cell research is murder!

You're condemning
sick people to die.

Man is not God.

There, another obelisk.

Check the crowd. It's almost 9.
He's gotta be here already.

There must be 100 statues
up there.

None of them are angels.
Those are all saints.

How in God's name would anyone
create a sculpture about air?

Bas-relief. Of course.
It's still a sculpture.

Check the ground.
Look at the carvings.

Look for another having something
to do with air.

"West Ponente." West wind.

Vittoria!

Here it is.

West wind. An angel
blowing out 5 streaks of air.

This is it.

Get the police!

Call an ambulance!

He's still alive.

His chest.
They punctured his lungs.

Clear the square.

"--from within your walls to
squeeze life from the Bishop of Rome."

He's actually claiming responsibility
for the death of His Holiness.

That's ridiculous.
He died of a stroke.

It implies the Illuminati murdered
him with his own medication.

What?

Down here.

"With man's solution
we stilled his heart.

With his own needle
did we pierce his unholy veil."

Did the Holy Father take any kind
of medication by injection?

Tinzaparin.

He had thrombophlebitis.

He took an injection every day.
But no one knew that.

Someone knew.

Well, he had health concerns
and seizures as well.

But he took steps to make sure
he was watched, for safety.

He didn't want it made public, so
we have no reason to discuss it.

Tinzaparin is lethal
in the wrong dosage.

An overdose could cause
massive internal bleeding

and brain hemorrhages.

It might look like a stroke at first, but
in a few days his body would show signs.

This could easily be examined.

Ms. Vetra, in case
you're not aware of it,

papal autopsy is prohibited
by Vatican law.

We're not going to defile
His Holiness's body

just because
his enemies claim--

Why would they send this letter now?
Well, to cause panic.

"The sun will blind at midnight

and neither police nor professors
can stop it."

He knows I'm here.

Obviously they were hoping
this letter would become public.

We might be wise to preempt
their next attempt

by making an announcement of our
own to refute this absurd claim.

That's out of the question.

Cardinal Strauss has insisted this
entire matter be kept internal.

He shouldn't even be aware of it.
He's locked in conclave.

His final instructions before sealing
the doors were very clear.

Cardinal Strauss does not dictate
Vatican protocols.

As you say,
yet, technically,

now that conclave
has begun,

it's his privilege and duty
to control public announcements.

I've drafted a press release about
the incident in the piazza,

but any other statements
are specifically prohibited.

For that, Cardinal has asked me
to remind you we have a chimney.

Commander Richter,
the search for the device?

Well, we've turned the power on and off
to about 20 percent of Vatican City.

Nothing on the video yet.
We're running out of options.

How long would you need
to evacuate everyone?

If I pull all my men from the search
for the bomb, 30 minutes.

Mr. Langdon. You have been right
so far about the path. It's now 9:15.

How quickly can you find
the next church?

The lines of breath on the carving pointed
due east, directly away from Vatican City.

But there were 5 of them,
so there's room for error.

About 20 churches
intersect those lines.

None of them have names
that invoke fire.

So a Bernini sculpture must be
inside one of them that does.

We'll need to get back
into the archives to find it.

Would you escort Mr. Langdon?
Yes, Father.

Silvano's journals.

The killer's name could be
in here. May I stay?

Please.
Fine, of course.

Professor.

Would it surprise you to find
those clothes suit you?

It would surprise
the hell out of me.

The Vatican is expressing
sympathy for the mugging victim,

a Dusseldorf tourist,
now confirmed dead...

The Vatican police
have a suspect in custody...

The Vatican will allow the
crowd back into St. Peter's Square

where security will be doubled...

The Vatican did admit that where there
are crowds, so often follows crime.

We're trying now to get the name
of the tourist who was--

Oh, wait.
Pan to the right. Keep panning.

We're getting word now of smoke.

Smoke from
the Sistine Chapel chimney.

Apparently there's been
another vote.

The smoke is black.

Once again, the cardinals have
failed to reach consensus

and the Catholic Church
remains without a leader.

What are you looking for now?

Church assets.

I beg your pardon?

Artwork. It's valuable.

Corporations tend to keep track
of their holdings.

The Catholic Church is not a
corporation, it's a beacon.

A source of inspiration for one
billion lost and frightened souls.

Sure, I get that. It's also a bank.

Commander Olivetti said I was not
to leave your side this time.

It wasn't me, it was her.

Power is now cut to Zone 73.

No light reaction on the monitor.

Restore power and move on to 74.

What sort of signs?

I'm sorry?

If the Holy Father was given
an overdose of Tinzaparin,

what signs
would his body bear?

Bleeding of
the oral mucosa.

His tongue.

Postmortem, the blood congeals and
turns the inside of the mouth black.

Even after 14 days?

It wouldn't show up until at
least a week after his death.

He was very important to me.

Yeah, I understand.

Will you come with me, please?

Signore, would you organize
a security team

to escort Miss Vetra and myself
down to the crypt?

Yes, sir.

We'll be leaving straightaway.

Do you smoke?

A little bit.

Then you better sit down
before you keel over.

And what's all that right there?

What does this say
in Italian right here,

next to the Ecstasy of Saint Teresa?
Right there.

"Moved at suggestion
of the artist."

"Moved"? To another church.
At the suggestion of Bernini?

I don't know.

Here. Translate all of this for me

and I'll buy you
a pack of smokes.

I'm looking for
a reference to fire.

Fires.

"Seraphim," meaning "the fiery one."
Right.

"His great, golden
spear, a point of fire."

Then "woman left completely afire."

Ecstasy of Saint Teresa.
Saint Teresa on fire.

So this sculpture
was moved to this church?

Why did they shut down the system?
They know we're down here.

if there's no
power, there's no oxygen.

Can we get out?
The door is electronic.

Oh, God.

Well, that's disappointing.

Where are we going?

To see my father.

I don't understand.

I was orphaned when I was
9 years of age. A bombing in Ulster.

The UVF protesting the visit
of a Catholic archbishop.

The archbishop felt responsible,
and he adopted me the following day.

I was raised by him
and by the Church.

He was the wisest man I ever met.

Even when I was young and stubborn,
I wanted to be ordained.

But I was brought up in Italy, so I
also wanted to do my military service.

I wanted to fight.

He told me, "Learn to fly."

So I joined
the Aeronautica Militare,

flew helicopters, bringing
the wounded back to hospital.

He was a great man.

Your father died?

14 days ago.

Command, do you read me?

Power is off. Oxygen is very low.

Come in. Can you read me?

Can you get anything?

No. The walls are lead-lined.
There's no signal.

This way.

If the Holy Father was murdered,
the implications are profound.

Vatican security is impenetrable.

No one from the outside
could have got anywhere near him.

It was someone on the inside.

And we can trust no one.

No light reaction on Zone 97.

Based on the rate the battery
is using power,

the device will detonate
just before midnight.

Holy Father,

when I was young, you told me the
voice in my heart was God's voice.

You said I should follow it,
no matter how painful.

Forgive me.

Please.

Give me strength.

What I do, I do in the name
of everything you believe.

God help us.

Santa Maria della Vittoria.
Do you know it?

Yes, I do.
It's the next church.

I think someone
just tried to kill me.

Professor, I promise you
we had no idea--

He knows I'm here.
Yes.

You heard me
ask permission.

You gave me an escort.
Yes. But we had no idea

that portions of our white zones
were cross-wired with that building.

Commander Richter
was extending the search.

If he had known the archives were on that
grid, he never would have killed the power.

Or there is the other possibility.

Is it conceivable the Illuminati

have infiltrated the Swiss Guard?

Perhaps.

The journals. Where are they?

Who took the journals
from this desk?

Someone is here? What is this?

Signore, this is unacceptable.

For a camerlengo to enter the chapel
once conclave has begun...

Forgive me.
There's been a development.

His Holiness
Celestine V was murdered.

Is it so hard to believe
it could happen again?

Signori, please a moment.

Please, signori.

Our Church is at war.

We are under attack
from an old enemy.

The Illuminati.

They have struck us
from within.

Murdering our Holy Father.

And threatening us all with destruction
at the hands of their new god, science.

They call it retribution.
They think it justified.

Because of the Church's attacks
on men of science in the distant past.

And it's true.

Since the days of Galileo,

this Church has tried to slow
the relentless march of progress,

sometimes with misguided means.

But science and religion
are not enemies.

There are simply some things

that science is just too young
to understand.

So the Church pleads,
"Stop. Slow down. Think. Wait."

And for this
they call us backward.

But who is more ignorant,

the man
who cannot define lightning

or the man who does not respect
its natural awesome power?

The battle is well underway, signori.

We must defend ourselves.

But what if this time we fight
their stealth with openness?

Combat their wicked scheme
with simple truth

and end this brutish battle
once and for all.

If the outside world could see
this Church as I do,

looking beyond the ritual
of these walls,

they would see a modern miracle.

A brotherhood of imperfect,
simple souls,

who want nothing more
than to be voices of compassion

in a world spinning out of control.

Signori, I ask,

I pray

that you break this conclave.

Open the doors,

evacuate St. Peter's Square,

and tell the world
the truth.

Oh, my God.

Get him down!

No!

There, there, that chain.
On that pulley.

This bench. Get this pew up here.
Make a ladder.

Gendarmeria Vaticana.

My son,

God answers all prayers,

but sometimes his answer is no.

The College will not
break conclave.

May I suggest

you direct your energies

to helping the Swiss Guard find
this explosive device,

if it exists.

And leave
Church leadership

to its leaders.

Eminence.

There is a growing fear
that without the four preferiti,

a two-thirds majority for any
candidate will not be possible.

Unless--
Speak plainly.

It is the recommendation
of many

that you ask to be removed
from your post as Great Elector,

thereby making
yourself eligible

to wear the Ring
of the Fisherman.

Well, if it is God's will,

may his will be done.

Signore, are you okay?

Those journals are private property.
I demand that you return them to me.

They're material evidence
in a Vatican investigation.

I am an Italian citizen.
My rights do not end

just because I crossed to the other--
This is not Italy.

It's not even Rome,
it's the Vatican.

A country of its own
with its own laws.

And when those journals passed the
border, they became my property.

And I will give them
back to you

when I've decided they contain
nothing of value to the investigation.

Do you have something to hide,
Comandante Richter?

Do you, Dr. Vetra?

Were it up to me,
it would not be this way.

It's a sin to kill with pain.

It's a sin to kill without reason.

Father,

they make me a sinner.

Saint Teresa on fire.

Professor Langdon?

What direction is that?
West, I think.

"'Cross Rome
the mystic elements unfold."

Piazza Barberini is here.

Saint Teresa is here.

Where is the Santa Maria del Popolo,
the first alter of science?

Santa Maria del Popolo?
Yes.

Thank you.

St. Peter's is here.

We are here.

A church with water...

Wait, wait, wait.

"'Cross Rome."

The poem must mean it literally,
cross Rome.

Professor, Commander Richter
has ordered me

to escort you to the Vatican
immediately.

Piazza Navona.

Earth. Air. Fire. Water.

Cross Rome.

Bernini's Four Rivers.

Professor Langdon, the Vatican insists
that I have to take you back immediately.

The Vatican is about to see
its fourth cardinal murdered tonight.

Now, look. You can do as they say
and force me back to the Vatican,

where we can all mourn
his death together.

Or you can show how real cops act,
and take me to the Piazza Navona,

where we still might be able
to stop it.

Oh, by all means,
let's talk it over.

In 14 minutes,
he's gonna be dead.

This way, professor.

Yes, Padre?

At 11:15,
if the Church is still in peril,

give the order
to evacuate the cardinals.

But with dignity.

Let them walk out into St. Peter's
Square with their heads held high.

I don't want the last image of this
Church to be of frightened old men

sneaking out
the back door.

"Let angels guide thee..."

There it is.

There it is.
Professor, I know this fountain.

There is no angel on it.
The dove. The Angel of Peace.

And it's looking in what direction?

East, I think.

Professor, just wait here.

Stay put.

Good evening. Can you help me?

I'm waiting for a doctor.

Come here.

Stay calm. Don't shoot.

Hey!

Help!

Somebody help!

Help, somebody!

Cardinal Baggia?

Cardinal Baggia.

Where was he hiding you?

The Church of Illumination,
where is it?

Castel-- Castel Sant'Angelo.

Castle of the Angel.

Sir, there's
news about Cardinal Baggia.

The cardinal told Langdon he was
being held in Castel Sant'Angelo.

If Langdon's right,
that's where the bomb is.

Send everyone
we can spare.

And you?

I'm staying here.

Vittoria.

You're all right.
I'm all right.

What about you? I just heard
about Olivetti on the radio.

I'm all right, I'm okay.

Robert, we can't trust Richter.
He took Silvano's journals.

There must be something in there
he doesn't want us to see.

The head of the Swiss Guard.

Castel Sant'Angelo, it's close enough
so the wireless signal from that camera

could still reach the Vatican.

The Church of Illumination
is somewhere here.

Your canister is inside it.

Come with me.

For 400 years, the Illuminati
met right under the Church's nose.

The Vatican used this as a hideout
and as a prison for their enemies.

If the explosion happens here, would
the blast radius take out the Vatican?

And part of Rome along with it.

Go on.

They're pointing to it. The angels.

The canister must be down there.
Come on.

Where are they going?
Back. To search the outer castle.

No, no. It has to be here!

Robert, it's a dead end.

No, it's not.

See if you can find a flashlight.

All of these stones
are rectangular granite.

Except right here. What is this?

It's a pentagram.

An eye

that leads to...

Nowhere.

Robert?

These walls overlap and there's
a passageway back here.

Here, let me have
the flashlight.

It's a passageway
that leads to the Vatican.

An ancient escape route.

My God.

Here.

Look.

This would be the perfect
place for the Illuminati to blow

the whole building up.

Here. Here.

Get on the radio. Get the word out.
Conclave remains sealed.

But the camerlengo gave the order
for evacuation at--

I'm countermanding it.

This is it. This is their church.

The canister should
be lit by artificial light.

It's not here, Robert.

"A shining star at the end
of the path." it has to be.

it's not here.

What did the poem say?
Nothing.

Nothing, it's all over. It was just the
four lines, each one describing the...

There's a fifth brand.

It's not an ambigram,
it's just two crossed keys.

The symbol for the Vatican.

No.

No, the papacy.

They intend to kill him.

Before they destroy the
Vatican, they're gonna kill

and brand the pope himself.
There is no pope.

Tempe sede vacante.

ll camerlengo.

We have to warn him.
Take a step back, please.

Take your cell phone
from your pocket.

Throw it in the fire.

Murderer.

You know, when they call me,

and they all call me,

it is so important to them
that I know

that what they ask
is the Lord's will.

Or Allah's, or Yahweh's.

And I suppose they're right.

Because if he was not vengeful,
I would not exist, now, would I?

I've had several chances
to eliminate you tonight.

You're still alive
because you have no weapon

and they didn't ask me to kill you,
but if you pursue me,

it is another matter.

Be careful.

These are men of God.

The camerlengo.

Have you come
to make me a martyr?

Here. Here. Here.

I need to see the camerlengo.
He is not available.

I demand to see the camerlengo!
He is not available.

We'll see about that.

All locked up. Senza
chiave, it's a one-way portal.

The only entrance
is on the other side.

No! Hey!

I don't care who he talks to.
He doesn't go into that room.

This is Robert Langdon
and Dr. Vetra! Open the door!

Open up!

Open the door!

Hey!

The camerlengo
is in danger.

He's the one! He's got a gun!

Illuminatus!
You bastard.

Illuminatus!
Sanctimonious bastard!

Order the evacuation.

We only have 19 minutes.

Here, he's--

Get the helicopter
for the older cardinals.

Yes, sir.

Robert?

The brand, the symbol,
could it have another meaning?

Crossed keys.
But those are upside down.

St. Peter.

The first pope

was crucified upside down.

On Vatican Hill.
A few hundred feet below us.

Necropolis, city of the dead.

"Upon this rock
I will build my church."

Or bring it down upon itself.

The bomb is in St. Peter's tomb.

The grid is still cycling.

The power to this section
must be down.

It must be here. It must be.

Don't touch it.

We have 7 minutes.

Robert, hold this.

It's cold down here, isn't it?

What's wrong?

Cold decreases battery life.

We may have
less than 5 minutes.

So?

If I pull the power
with less than 5 minutes,

the residual charge
won't hold suspension.

We should leave it here
and get clear if we can.

At least down here, the damage--
No!

No, wait!
Father!

We are live here at St.
Peter's Square,

where despite a bomb threat
and an order of evacuation,

the crowd is actually growing
in size as we await an official

announcement
from the Vatican spokesman

as to the exact nature
of the threat

and whether or not they
are treating it as a credible danger.

This way.

A bomb?

Roberto, there's an emergency.
I'll take her up alone.

He's got clearance.

Oh, my God.

Get down!

Cardinal Strauss?

it was the camerlengo.
He saved us all!

He saved the church
and he is alive.

Praise God. Praise God.

He is alive.

He sacrificed himself for all of us.

It's so incredible. He survived.

You know, the worst thing
we thought would happen

was that our work would fall into
the hands of the energy companies.

We thought
we could change the world.

So naive.

No, no. Not naive.

Innocent, maybe.

But that's not a crime.

I'm not so sure.

Go back to work.

Change the world.

A gift. Do you
understand what I'm saying?

For Catholics, for everyone.

Camerlengo's age
shouldn't be an obstacle.

Signori, you are no doubt aware

that by holy law the man is ineligible
for election to the papacy.

He is not a cardinal, he is a priest.

He is of insufficient age.

Well, maybe there's a way
we could consider the possibilities.

I am sorry. The protocols of conclave
are not subject to modification.

I will not call a ballot on this matter.

But, signore,
you would not call the ballot.

Surely you remember

you gave up your post
as Great Elector.

They are singing in St.
Peter's Square.

And what happened here tonight
transcends our laws.

Does it?

Is it God's will that
we give ourselves over to frenzy?

Discard the rules of the Church?

Perhaps we need not
discard them.

Signore, I am thinking now of Romano
Pontifici Eligendo, Numero Sessanta--

Acclamation by Adoration.

if the Holy Spirit
speaks through us

and we call a man's name
out loud--

That is election by adoration.

He's God's choice.
Yes.

And the candidate need only be
an ordained member of the clergy,

present in the Sistine Chapel
at the moment of his election.

I think we have it settled.

Signore Camerlengo.

Yes?

The cardinals ask you to join
them in conclave as soon as possible.

Me?

Yes, Padre.

What are you doing?

Silvano's journals.
I want them back.

Richter said

His Holiness suffered
from seizures,

but steps were taken

for safety.

"Made sure he was watched,"
he said.

What if he was trying
to give me this key?

That's the papal office.

If the pope was worried
about seizures,

he must have had Richter install
cameras without telling anyone.

To keep an eye on him. For safety.

Maybe it records.

I read thejournals, Patrick.

The scientist keptjournals. So?

Well, you figure
prominently in them.

Really?

Bentivoglio wasn't just a
physicist he was also a Catholic priest.

And as such, he was deeply conflicted
about the implications of his work

and in need of
spiritual guidance.

Like Galileo.

About a month ago, he requested
an audience with the pope,

but you know that.

Because you granted the audience, and
you were also present during it.

The God particle. To actually
claim an act of creation.

The blasphemy. The arrogance.

The Holy Father didn't see it
like that.

He urged him to go public.

His Holiness
thought that the discovery

could actually scientifically prove
the existence of a divine power

and begin to bridge the gap
between science and religion.

His work was not religious,
it was sacrilegious.

But you... You saw the pope's position
as a softening of Church law.

As an old man's weakness.
Your father's weakness.

You murdered the Vicar of Christ.

He raised me to protect this
Church, even from within.

And then you conjured up
an old enemy from the past.

The Illuminati.

You found the ancient brands in the
papal vaults, and put them to use.

To spread fear.

The cardinals
are men of belief.

Right now, their belief in evil
is uniting them.

The entire Catholic world
will be united by this attack.

There is no attack.

You're trying to convince the
cardinals they're in a war

so they will choose a warrior
to lead them.

We are at war.

We're weak
when we should be strong.

If science is allowed
to claim the power of creation,

what is left for God?

It didn't work, Patrick.

It isn't finished.
Oh, yes, it's finished.

It's finished.

I've shown the journals
to Father Simeon.

The moment the doors
to the conclave open,

he will tell the cardinals
what you've done.

I was planning
on doing this alone.

Put it down.

But perhaps it's better
that you're here.

Put it down.

Put it away.

Help! He's the one! He's got a gun!

Illuminatus!
You bastard.

Illuminatus!
Sanctimonious bastard!

And get the
helicopter for the older cardinals, right?

Robert?

The brand, the symbol
could it have another meaning?

I've been summoned by
the College of Cardinals.

Gently,

but within our walls.

Father, into thy hands
I commend my spirit.

Church sources now confirm

that Camerlengo
Father Patrick McKenna

has died of internal injuries
sustained in his heroic fall.

Crowds of the faithful are calling for

the camerlengo's immediate
canonization and sainthood.

The Vatican also announced
the death of three of its cardinals

in the fire
at Santa Maria della Vittoria.

--as we await the appearance
of the new Holy Father,

Cardinal Baggia of Italy,

one of the four original preferiti,
who, despite terrorist attempts,

at disruption,
seems to have been selected

in one of the swiftest
and smoothest conclaves

in modern Church history.

Professor Langdon? Please.

A token of thanks
from His Holiness

and from
his new camerlengo.

We are grateful
you saved his life.

And it's our understanding
that you require this text

to complete your scholarly work.

We ask only that
in your last will and testament

you ensure

it finds its way home.

Of course.

And when you write of us,

and you will write of us,

may I ask one thing?

Do so gently.

I'll try.

Religion is flawed

but only
because man is flawed.

All men,
including this one.

He chose the name Luke.

There's been many
Marks and Johns,

never a Luke.

it's said he was a doctor.

It's quite a message,
science and faith all in one.

The world is
in need of both.

You will
counsel him wisely.

I am an old man.
I will counsel him briefly.

Mr. Langdon,

thanks be to God for sending
someone to protect his Church.

I don't believe he sent me, Father.

Oh, my son,

of course he did.
