Original subtitles

Carter: Previously on Eureka.

Sarah: There's an unexpected visitor at the door.

It's auntie Lex!

Shall I let her in?

No! Yes!

Nathan: Wedding gift for Allie.

None of us may make it through the next time wave.

I'll see you around, Jack.

He's gone?

Zoe? Are you strangling something?

Oh, sorry. Is the music too loud?

That's music?

Yes, I composed it in India. It's supposed to relieve stress.

Really? Yeah, not working.

Give it a chance. Sometimes, you have to let art flow over you

before you can appreciate it. I'll make you a copy for your car.

Take your time.

You sure you should be doing that in your condition?

Yoga's good for the pregnancy, and since I don't have a lamaze partner...

You might, if you told the father.

He's halfway across the world

curing cholera. Curing cholera.

Where he belongs. This baby is my choice.

All right. Well, you want some coffee?

Dad, you okay? Yeah.

Sorry. I rearranged a few things.

For a smart house, the feng shui was really dumb, no offense, Sarah.

Sarah: None taken. It's really opened up my flow.

What's in my coffee?

Soy milk. Aunt Lexi says that lactose gives you gas.

Oh, well, Lex also says that her cat is grandma lil. No thanks.

Same old Jack, you always hated change.

Yeah, and you're always trying to fix things that aren't broken.

So you're telling me that everything in your life is perfect.

Nothing could be improved just a tiny bit?

Oh, no.

When are you leaving?

God, I wish I had a sibling.

Oh, problem at g.D., so no more feng or shui.

I don't think the lettering's big enough.

Fargo, if it was any bigger, it'd cover the whole building.

Your point is?

Hey, guys. You seen Thorne?

Section three, at the big tomb opening. There's a protestor in the preservation lab.

What if we changed the font?

What's the plan in here?

We're turning this into the Nathan stark memorial hallway.

I was hoping for it to be done before Dr. Blake returned, but, well, we're close.

Allison's back already?

She said she was feeling better.

Henry, I'm gonna go grab the other color swatches.

Here, come on. I can show you where Thorne is.

Don't do anything until I get back.

Wouldn't think of it.

Okay.

Fargo: Here, we go.

Sheriff, finally.

Nice to see you too. What's the problem?

These people have no respect for the past, that's the problem.

You know that isn't true.

We're only attempting this project because of our fascination with history,

and Dr. Wilding is standing in the way of progress, literally.

I want him arrested.

And you are?

Dr. Sebastian Marx, archeologist.

I'm sure you've seen some of my documentaries.

You're a disgrace to the discipline.

Dr. Wilding is our resident egyptologist.

Sheriff, they can't be allowed to open this tomb.

That's a tomb?

Thorne: For queen nyota.

Eureka had a queen?

No, sheriff Carter, we brought the whole tomb from Egypt.

Had to use a superconductor to generate a massive anti—gravitational field.

It's protected by a thermoplastic multifilament polymer.

Air bags.

Thank you. Couldn't you just open it when you were in Egypt?

Not under perfectly controlled environmental conditions.

Here, we can use a metasomatic ray to protect the rock composition

so the tomb won't crumble when we expose it.

I mean, this is gonna be an unprecedented achievement.

Then we'll send it out on an interactive 3D world tour

that will make king tut look tame.

Dr. Wilding... if you won't listen to me, listen to them.

The message on that door is a warning.

Those are the symbols for danger and death.

You mean, like a curse?

Curse, legend, lore. I mean, this tomb has it all.

Inside, the doomed queen lies shrouded in a cloud of darkness.

A queen who vows to one day rise again.

I think I just gave myself the chills.

I am really, really sorry,

but these people have a job to do, and I don't want to have to take you in.

Fine. I've conveyed their warning.

I strongly suggest that you listen.

I warned you.

Thank you, sheriff. I knew I could count on you.

Well, just be careful. It's all fun and games until someone gets cursed.

Hey.

Hey.

Heard you were back.

Yeah, just trying to catch up on everything.

Yeah.

You sure you're ready?

I mean, it's only been a couple weeks.

Yeah, I'm fine,

and keeping busy, you know, it helps.

But I appreciate you checking in on me.

Listen, um...

I have something for you, but I'm not sure if now is the right time.

What is it?

It's a wedding present from stark. Nathan.

He asked me to give it to you.

I could've waited.

No, it's...

Thanks.

Okay.

Electronic voice: Power sequence initiated.

Metasomatic ray activated.

Tomb pressure equalized.

Now, the tomb has been untouched for 3,000 years.

Now, we must take great care

to protect this holy site from being contaminated by our presence,

to ensure that queen nyota's body and spirit are preserved forever.

Come along.

Marx: Yes, yes, look at that.

It's wondrous.

This is wondrous! Eileen, are you getting this?

Eileen: You stepped out of your light.

What?

What? Why didn't you say anything?

Well, okay. Look, we got to start from the top.

Is this guy for real?

Well, you have to admire anyone who can bring

the wonder of scientific discovery to the masses.

Especially if the masses will pay top dollar to see it?

It doesn't hurt.

We've just removed the cover and there she is,

queen nyota, entirely intact.

Marx: Now, the linen that once enshrouded her has completely dissolved,

but the queen herself lives on in all her splendid glory.

Will the legend come true?

Will the queen rise again to walk the night?

Only time will tell.

Fargo, I swear, if this is a joke...

It was the mummy queen, and she tried to strangle me.

You've seen too many horror movies.

Carter: Hello?

Any mummy home?

We desecrated her tomb and woke her up, and now she's out for revenge.

Go find Zane! He's the one you want!

Relax, Fargo.

You can't wake the dead, unless you're playing my sister's music.

Oh, god! Queen nyota got him.

Oh, it's Dr. Marx. Dr. Marx? Dr. Marx?

He's alive.

He's not the only one.

Fargo: The sarcophagus... The mummy's gone.

Allie...

Nathan?

Is that you?

I will always love you.

Eva...

What happened?

You passed out, Sebastian,

probably dehydration.

After two weeks in the desert and all day in the tomb, it's no surprise.

Could I have some water, please?

Was it the mummy? Did you see her?

Fargo.

Oh, no, the mummy.

My queen is gone.

Yeah.

So, you don't know where she is?

No. I went to dinner.

When I came back to get more footage, the sarcophagus was empty.

It must have been your egyptologist, wilding. We have to get her back.

I'm telling you, it's the curse.

Fargo says that he saw the mummy in stark's memorial hallway.

It has nothing to do with that. I know what I saw.

The queen is alive and I'm gonna prove it.

Marx accused me?

You should arrest him for slander.

Well, you did make quite a scene.

Disturbing queen nyota's remains goes against everything I stand for.

Yeah, and yet Marx did it anyway.

Doesn't mean I'd resort to desecration to make my point.

I respect the ancient Egyptians far too much for that.

You know they're dead, right?

They were the first scientists.

They should be honored for their achievements, not turned into a circus sideshow.

Okay. Well, what can you tell me about Sebastian Marx?

That's not even his real name.

It's paco Lopez,

and he's been involved in more than one scandal.

I'll say. Bribing customs officials,

transporting sacred relics without proper permits, tomb raiding.

Marx sold out long ago. He cares about the spectacle,

not science.

A resurrected mummy would build a lot of hype for his little movie.

I wouldn't put it past him.

Yeah, but a mummy hoax?

Still, though, Fargo said that he saw something.

Fargo is afraid of his own shadow.

Given his state of mind, I...

It's, yeah, but still, we should talk to Marx again.

Well, he's doing a book signing at cafe diem.

It's part of Vincent's pharaohpalooza event. I don't know.

All right.

Pharaohpalooza?

Is nothing sacred?

Greetings, fellow Egyptians. Enjoy this nectar of the nile.

Thank you, pharaoh.

Nice costume. So, where's Marx?

That is a good question. He's an hour late for his own book signing.

Oh, celebrities can be such prima Donnas.

Mmm.

Is this coffee? With pomegranate creamer in it.

It's pharaohlicious.

It's disgusting. Could I get some real milk, like from a cow?

Absolutely. I shall resurrect some from the tomb.

That would be the freezer.

I love theme day.

Sheriff, prepare to be proven wrong.

Are you drinking this?

No, enjoy.

Is that blood?

Fish blood. Herring, to be exact.

Fargo, people are trying to eat.

The cells were found in a fossil pocket in the paleontology lab.

They are thousands of years old.

So, it's dead fish blood.

Not dead. Regenerated.

A geology experiment brought the cells back to life. Oh, but how, you ask?

Metasomatic rays, just like they used to open the tomb.

And you think a few fish cells proves that the mummy was resurrected?

You can't ignore the evidence, sheriff. I mean, here, take a closer look. They're alive.

And they smell. Yeah. I'm gonna be sick.

Oh, scratch that.

Now, I'm gonna be sick.

Hi, guys. Do you like it? I have free copies.

Did you compose this? Mmm-hmm.

It soothes the soul on a wide range of frequencies,

and there's a whole lot of tension in this room, especially from that area.

I'll say.

Tell you what, sis. You want to release some stress?

Talk to Fargo. He's got some serious mummy issues.

Come on. Let's go see Marx at the b & b.

Wait, no. Take this, for a peaceful drive.

You need it.

All right.

So, tell me about your mother.

You do nice work, Dr. Deacon.

Eva! Hey. Oh, how's it going with that missing mummy?

Oh, the sheriff's on the case. I'm sure she'll be home soon.

All right, anything I can do to help, just let me know.

Actually, there is one thing.

Do you have any idea what this is?

A cryptex?

Wow, it's like a type of combination lock,

although I don't recognize the symbols.

Do you think you could open it?

Where did you find this?

Oh, in an alternate location for the hotel I want to build.

First, it's baryogenic radiation, and now, it's this.

What are you looking for?

Unfortunately, the details are classified.

That is unfortunate.

So, I guess I'm gonna have to find another way?

Hmm.

Jo: Marx has been staying here since he got to town.

Dr. Marx, it's sheriff Carter!

You sure he's in there? Well, no one's seen him leave

since he came in last night.

He say anything?

No, just asked for some water.

How much water?

Dr. Marx?

This place is a sauna.

More like a tomb.

Think we found our mummy.

It's not a mummy.

That's Marx.

Sheriff, Allison, is Sebastian really dead?

Really dead. I'm afraid he makes queen Toyota look good.

Nyota. What happened?

We don't know yet. Henry's quarantined the body while he does an autopsy.

Quarantined? Does he think this is an infection?

The rapid deterioration of the body is similar to flesh—eating bacteria.

Sebastian just got back from Egypt. Maybe he picked something up there.

Or from the tomb with the fancy danger signs on the door.

Maybe we should've listened to wilding.

Anything?

The body is severely drained of all its fluids.

Well, how do you die of dehydration in a tub full of water?

Uh, aggressive bacterial infection, fungal spores, poison.

Poison? So this could have been deliberate?

Because Dr. Wilding was very upset yesterday.

No, it wasn't him. I spoke to him, and it's not in his nature.

And, more than likely, it spread through contact.

If it had been airborne, we'd have seen more victims.

Was anyone else in the tomb with him?

Just his camerawoman, and I haven't heard from her since yesterday.

Carter. Jo and I are on it.

What about the missing mummy?

Shouldn't we be more concerned about who killed your friend?

That's my only concern, sheriff.

If the mummy's infectious, more lives are at risk.

We've already lost one great scientist today. I don't want to lose another.

Excuse me.

Oh, dear.

I will never leave you again.

Oh, my god.

Allison, are you all right?

Yeah, I'm... I just thought I...

Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry.

Listen,

I know what you're going through. I lost my husband too.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh, it was a long time ago, but still, I know how difficult it is.

And there will always be reminders.

And the hard truth is, you can get past it,

but you'll never get over it, even if you have all the time in the world.

I just want you to know you're not alone.

Thanks.

Zane: Marx's camerawoman, Eileen Michaels, professional documentarian.

She's been with Marx for the entire excavation.

Okay, and you haven't seen her since yesterday?

No, she left early. Said she wasn't feeling well.

Apparently, she never made it back to the hotel.

Can you see when she logged out of the building?

Huh. She didn't. According to security, she's still here.

Let's hope she hasn't ended up like Marx.

About that, I've been doing some research.

These are hieroglyphics from inside the tomb. They're an obscure dialect,

but I think they're describing a plague.

You mean, like a disease?

Maybe Marx got infected inside the tomb. All right, we'll call wilding.

We need to know exactly what those symbols mean. I'll keep looking for Eileen.

Oh, not to be all doom and gloom,

but if she's still alive, wouldn't someone have seen her by now?

Maybe someone already has.

Okay, show me where she was.

Right over there. I really don't think we should be in here.

What if the mummy comes back?

I don't think that's what you saw.

But you said you believed me!

No, I believe you saw someone last night,

but just not the walking dead out for revenge.

Uh, tell that to Dr. Marx.

Henry hasn't finished the autopsy,

but it seems that Dr. Marx was killed by an infection,

some kind of dehydration sickness,

so it makes...

Water. Hey, what are you...

Don't, don't go in there! It's not done yet.

This looks bad.

Well, come on, you're not getting the full effect.

You got to imagine colored lights, and pink water lilies, some koi...

All right, Fargo, I don't think you want to see this.

What?

What?

It's the mummy queen!

It's Eileen Michaels.

Carter: Well, the camerawoman was here all along.

She was in the fountain?

She must have gotten in there after Fargo ran, like Marx in the bathtub.

The curse got her. We're all doomed.

For the last time, there is no curse.

Then where's the mummy queen?

I'm working on it.

I'm ordering tests on all g.D. Employees, make sure no one else is infected.

Well, she and Marx are the only ones

who actually had physical contact with the mummy.

That we know of. Someone took her.

Who knows how many more people are at risk, how many more people are gonna die?

Okay.

Okay, well, we'll do the tests. We'll keep our eyes open for the signs.

And what are the signs, exactly?

I don't...

Being really, really thirsty?

So, that's what we're depending on? People are dying, Carter.

Are you okay?

I'm fine. It's...

Come on. Talk to me.

Okay, look, I know this is gonna sound crazy, but I swear, I keep hear...

Fargo?

What?

Oh, no. Oh, no.

I knew that stupid curse would get me too.

Don't worry, Fargo. We're gonna take care of you.

Oh, sure, like you took care of Dr. Marx and Eileen Michaels?

Carter: You're not gonna end up like that.

How did he get infected?

Uh, apparently, Eileen touched him on the neck before he ran off.

We're checking everyone that Fargo came in contact with first,

make sure no one else has any symptoms.

Yeah, and wilding and Zane are trying to learn all they can

from the symbols inside the tomb. That's gonna take time.

Where's Henry? He's doing an autopsy of Eileen Michaels,

but if that doesn't provide some answers, we're in trouble.

Let's hope it does.

Henry: She just disintegrated before I could even get started.

Without water to keep her hydrated, her body just turned to dust.

Well, that didn't happen to Marx. No.

He was different. I found hundreds of small masses inside his stomach.

Growths of some kind.

That's pleasant. Tumors?

Not that I'd ever seen before. I'm gonna keep testing.

All right, well, check Fargo's blood against Marx.

We only have a couple of hours if we're going to save him.

We need to find out what kind of infection we're dealing with.

All right, and I'll work on finding out what the symbols to the tomb mean.

Maybe there's a cure for the plague, whatever it is.

Right.

Any progress?

Some. See, every language has its pattern. It's just a matter of cracking the code.

Zane's been helping me by filling in the blanks

where the symbols have faded over time.

I've always been a puzzle guy. Well done.

So, did queen what's—her—name die from this?

The high priests apparently killed her themselves

to save her from the plague.

Not exactly a cure we can use on Fargo.

There's still pieces that we don't understand, like this symbol.

It keeps popping up over and over again.

It looks like a few clouds.

I still don't understand who could have taken the queen out of here

without anybody noticing.

Zane: There's nothing on the video, no security breach.

It's like she vanished into thin air.

Maybe because she did.

I think the reason why we can't figure out where the queen went

is because she's been right here all along.

Well, this is different.

Potassium, 35%, carbon, 18%,

phosphorous, 1.0,

calcium, 1.5.

Sheriff, you're right.

It's all organic matter. It's human remains.

How did you know?

Henry said that Eileen had turned to dust.

I figured maybe the queen had as well.

If you'd only heeded the warning.

Well, at least nobody else had contact with her, so this should be contained.

Yeah.

To Fargo.

How do I look?

Is that supposed to cheer me up?

Just hang in there, Fargo.

I mean, Henry's still working on it, and we haven't given up.

Neither should you.

You said rehydrating him would help. It should.

But the more fluids we give him, the weaker he gets.

And if you stop?

He dies of dehydration. Here, look at his blood.

These are microbes. They're replicating at an incredible rate.

Those look like little bugs.

It's not like any bacteria I've ever encountered.

What if we're thinking of the wrong kind of plague?

What do you mean?

I mean, so far, we've been thinking about the disease kind.

What if it's an insect kind?

You think Fargo's been invaded by microscopic insects?

Well, he showed me this fish blood that had been regenerated by a...

A meta, whatever, ray. Could the same thing happen to some ancient kind of bug?

Well, under certain conditions, insects can enter cryptobiosis.

It's a natural state of suspended animation.

They can survive indefinitely until rehydrated.

Like sea monkeys?

Same principle, but...

Which explains why rehydrating Fargo is making him worse.

The insects are multiplying.

And what if they're exposed to a large amount of water,

hke, say, an overflowing bathtub?

It could speed metamorphosis, like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly.

Okay, take care of Fargo. Okay.

I got to warn Henry.

Carter: Henry? I need to talk to you for a second.

Hey. We need to lock down that tent, make sure nothing can get out.

Well, nothing can. It's designed to contain the tiniest of microbes.

What about something bigger?

How much bigger?

Quite a bit.

Why couldn't it have been butterflies?

Jo, keep everyone inside. They're heading your way.

There's nothing left of Marx. Yeah, except what's flying all over town.

We got to keep them contained. Then, let's get back to g.D. We can't do this alone.

It's a swarm. That's what the cloud stands for.

Yeah, what kind of threat is it?

The bugs lay eggs, hatch larvae, and then seek out new hosts.

Well, how did the ancient Egyptians deal with the problem?

They killed the infected and burned their city to the ground.

Let's call that plan b.

According to our guys in entomology, these bugs are going to grow exponentially

now that they've emerged.

Hold on. How could the bugs grow in Marx but not Eileen?

Probably incubation. To fully develop, the larvae need water.

Yeah, but they were both in water.

I mean, Eileen was in the fountain. Marx was in the tub.

So maybe there was something in the fountain

that killed the larvae before they could undergo metamorphosis.

I'll go test the water.

Sorry.

Hey, Zoe, just stay indoors. We got a little bit of a bug problem.

A little bug problem?

Stay away from the windows, people!

Looks pretty big from where I am.

What happened to the lights?

They must've gotten to the circuit breaker.

I can't hear you. Can you turn that down?

Aunt Lex, kill the boom box.

Everyone's a critic.

The bug swarm is huge, and...

It's leaving.

Turn it back on. Tel! Lex to turn the music back on.

Dad wants the music back on.

I knew he'd come around.

It's weird. They're coming back.

Okay. Keep the doors closed. Keep the music on. Hang tight.

Carter: It's Lexi's music. The bugs actually like it.

It could be the harmonic frequencies.

Yeah, or they have no taste.

The point is that we can attract them. How do we kill them before they lay any eggs?

Well, without gassing the town. I have no idea.

Well, even then, they could be resistant to traditional pesticides.

All right. Well, what killed the bugs in Eileen Michaels? Did you test the fountain?

Yeah, purified water, not even chlorine.

Well, what about the ph levels, oxygenation, alkalinity?

All completely normal, just regular h20.

I mean, no different than the water that Marx was found in.

No, Marx was found in hot water.

The bathroom was filled with steam.

Yeah, but the fountain water comes from the underground spring. It's ice cold.

So maybe the bugs can't take the cold?

That's a reasonable hypothesis and we have the perfect way to test it.

Save Fargo, save the town.

Wait.

It's okay, Fargo.

Maybe for you.

Just let us take care of you.

The anesthesia is taking effect.

And...

He's out.

We're ready.

Okay, his vitals are really weak, so let's take it slow.

Starting cryofreeze now.

How long until we know?

Until I can confirm all the larvae inside of him have been frozen to death.

Well, then,

will he be all right?

If he doesn't freeze to death first.

Internal sensors are still detecting movement.

Allison: Okay, almost there.

No more movement.

So, they're dead? What if they're just hibernating?

That's what we're gonna find out. Bring Fargo out.

Defrost sequence undennay.

Henry: Pulse rate not responding.

Fargo, don't you die on me.

Henry: Still no change.

Wait. Wait a minute.

Pulse rate, 45.

Normal rate and rhythm, he's coming back to us.

Still no movement.

That's it! They're dead!

So, he's okay?

I swear, I almost lost it there for a moment. Yeah.

Allie.

And, now, I have.

I will always love you.

I see him too.

So do I. When you moved your hand from your necklace.

Is that a logic diamond?

Uh. Yeah, yeah it is. Stark had it made for her.

Of course. I should have known.

Allie,

I will always love you.

Then it's a holographic projection activated by certain spectra of light.

Nathan must have programmed it in the diamond.

I didn't know.

It's okay.

I'm in heaven.

Fargo's temperature is normal. It worked!

All right! Let's get this working on the swarm.

Oh, freezing the bugs in Fargo was one thing, but we can't freeze the whole town.

Oh, we don't need the whole town,

just one really cold tomb.

Okay, Zane. Plugging it in... Now.

Copy that. Everything in a five mile radius should hear it.

You don't have much time.

If the bugs start to reproduce, we'll never get them under control.

Way ahead of you. Thorne: Good luck, sheriff.

Here they come.

They're coming!

Door! Door!

Boom box!

That's part of the plan? Are you crazy?

Never mind!

Vince! Freezer!

I'm on it!

That's all of them.

Freeze them.

Zero degrees Kelvin, baby. Bless you, fusion reactor,

Everyone okay? A little creeped out, but fine.

Yeah, but my food isn't. I'm gonna need some gnefcounsehng.

Well, better that than being the food.

That's true.

Not too shabby, bro.

Yeah, not too shabby yourself.

Does this mean that you like my music?

I appreciate it on some level, yeah.

Well, I'm glad you guys made up,

because if you think I'm cleaning that freezer all on my own,

you are sadly mistaken.

Welcome back.

How you feeling?

Like I just came back from the dead.

It was close.

Saw a bright light, and Dr. Stark.

He's okay, Dr. Blake. You don't have to worry.

He's okay.

I'm sure he is.

They just finished sterilizing the sarcophagus.

Good.

Outbreak on tour would create terrible buzz,

so to speak.

I have a new puzzle for you to solve.

A cryptex. Yeah, I read about these, but I've never actually seen one.

You think you can crack it?

You kidding?

I broke into my dad's safe when I was five.

Well, I've picked the right man for the job, huh?

Carter: You sure you want to do this?

Well, Nathan left me a message.

I need to hear it.

You want me to stay?

I think I need to do this by myself.

Okay.

Surprise.

I know what you're thinking,

"I can barely handle one Nathan. What am I gonna do with two?"

Well, don't worry.

All I've done is imprint a small part of myself onto this diamond,

the way that you have imprinted yourself

onto me.

If marriage is about joining two people for eternity,

I wanted to be sure

that no matter where you are,

or where I am,

I will always be with you.

I made mistakes the first time, Allie.

I know that.

But I promise you, this time,

this time is forever.

Allie,

I will always love you.

And I will never,

ever,

leave you again.

Goodbye, Nathan.
