"A little dramatic meeting here, don't you think?" "I work with the smartest people in the world." "They cannot know we're talking." "So you've come to a decision then." "I have two conditions." "You are hardly in any position..." "One, we do this, we do this my way." "My design, my timetable." "I don't want anyone getting hurt." "I can live with that." "The second?" " You let the Librarians go." " Absolutely not." "You can have the Library and all the artifacts." "They are not part of the deal." "Eve, they are dangerous." "Their minds, their abilities... they and the artifacts are safer with us." "No, no." "They're my friends." "They're off the table." "Non-negotiable." "Or you can try and take the Library without my help." "Fine." "So do we have a deal, or did you drag me all the way out here for nothing?" "The Library is yours." "Cassandra, a watched pot never..." "I'm just antsy." "We haven't had a case in weeks." "Oh, relax." "Enjoy it." "A little downtime." "Catch up on some reading." "This complete history of pre-Babylonian pottery is riveting stuff." ""Methods For Tattoo Removal."" "Don't sneak up on me, man." "Touchy!" "Sheesh." "Ah, Eve Baird, ladies and gentlemen." "Where have you been?" " A little RR?" " Find us a new case?" "Actually, I've been meeting with DOSA." " Cassandra:" "What?" " I'm sorry." " Did you just say DOS..." " Yes." " DOSA?" "DOSA?" " Just the one DOSA, yes." "Eve, what's going on?" "Back in Tibet, in the train car," "I wasn't abducted by Lamb's associates." "It was DOSA." "They tried to recruit me, scare me into turning against the Library." "Naturally, I said no, but they keep trying." "Why didn't you tell us?" "Sneaking around, withholding, I mean," " that's something Flynn would do, but not you." " Hey!" " But he's right." " I'm sorry." "I was trying to wait for the right time." "I didn't want to alarm you guys." "But this could be good for us." "I'm sorry." "DOSA chasing you is good for us?" "Are you mental?" "We hate DOSA!" "Okay, let's let her finish." "Don't you see?" "They've taken me into their confidence." "They've lowered their guard." "While they were trying to play me..." "You were playing them." "That's my Baird." "I copied this from their files." "Somehow DOSA got the lead on a location of a lost artifact." "Let's see." "Hello, yes." "This is written in Lakota, the language of the Sioux." ""When Mercury shines under the wolf moon, the six grandfathers will reveal" " the great spider's web."" " Great spider's web?" "That's a map to the Iktomi dreamcatcher." "You mean those things they sell at shopping mall kiosks?" "Jenkins:" "No, no, no." "Not at all." "It's a very powerful Native American artifact." "According to Sioux legend, it has the power to control other people's dreams." "This location's been lost for over a century." "Well, apparently not anymore." ""Six grandfathers" is the Sioux word for a mountain in the Black Hills more commonly known as Mount Rushmore." "Jenkins, we need to get there before DOSA does." " Set a door." " I can't go with you." "You're not coming with us?" "I have to meet with DOSA and check in." "If I don't, they'll become suspicious." "She's right." "Don't want to lose our advantage." "Get the artifact, come right back." "If you get into any trouble, call." "On second thought, I'm gonna sit this one out." "I'm worried about Eve." "You think DOSA's got her rattled?" "I don't know." "Maybe." "I'm gonna talk to her." "You three go." "Jenkins:" "The door awaits." "May I remind you, the clock is ticking." "Go!" "Okay, so the map said something about Mercury shining under a wolf moon." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "We're just gonna jump right in?" "What about the big heads?" "Don't you guys want to check out the big heads?" "We're on the clock." "You heard Baird." "All right, in the Sioux calendar," ""wolf moons" are a name for January." "January." "All right, you guys are missing out." "According to this, George Washington's nose is a foot longer than the other three." "Don't tell me you guys aren't dying to see that." "Okay, so we need to start walking towards Mercury, which in January would be in retrograde, putting it at 27.62 degrees northeast... that-a way." "No!" "That's the wrong direction!" "Come on, I had so many puns ready!" "Why the long face?" "Keep your chin up!" "What exactly are we looking for again?" "You'll know it when you see it." "I just hope it's not a cave." "I mean, is it just me, or is anyone else sick of caves?" " Guys?" " Yeah?" "It's a Sioux wood carving." "The owl symbolizes death." " What's that in its eye?" " It's a garnet crystal." "Most commonly found on the coast." "What's it doing here?" "Garnet crystals have an extremely high level of light refraction." "The map said light would reveal something, right?" "Cassandra:" "Yeah." "Hey!" "Guys." " What's it say?" " More Lakota." ""Go to the sacred bear and kneel before the ancestral fire." "Only then will you find what you seek."" "Great." "A scavenger hunt." "Our whole job is a scavenger hunt." ""Sacred bear" is a Sioux reference to a rock formation in Bear View Park." "It's about an hour's hike from here." "I'll call Jenkins to fire up the door." "And no reception." "Figures." "Okay, well if we get a move on now, we should make it before sundown." "Come on, boys." "Stone, you coming?" "This hide, it's not right." "Come on, really?" "I'm from Oklahoma." "I know hides." "The Sioux tan their hides with oak and sumac." "It kept it rough around the edges." "This thing looks like it's store-bought." "And the ink is fresh." "What are you saying?" "The clue's a fake?" "I'm saying the whole damn mission is a fake." "DOSA sent us on a wild goose chase." "So DOSA fed Baird bad information." "But why?" "Eve?" "Jenkins, have you seen Eve?" "What?" "Sorry, sir." "Little situation here." "What's going on?" "The door... it's been dismantled." "It's the perimeter alarm." "Is that Colonel Baird leading DOSA into the library?" "Eve's working for DOSA?" "There must be two or three dozen, heavily armed." "How could she be working for DOSA?" "How could she do this to us?" "How could she do it to me?" "We cannot let them reach the artifacts, Mr. Car..." " She betrayed us!" " Yes, sir, it would seem so." "And as much as that might hurt, we have to protect the Library." "Yes, of course." "I will take the south passage, see if I can slip past them, start sealing doors and stashing artifacts." "You hold them off as long as you can." "I'll buy what time I can, sir." "I had no idea it was this big." "Bigger than you can imagine." "Pack everything up." "I want this place cleared out by 2300 hours." " Let's go." "Let's move." " Split up in teams." "I can't let you do that." "Step aside, Jenkins." "Colonel, I don't know what it is you think you're doing, but in the history of bad ideas... this?" "Right at the top." "You're the caretaker." "Jenkins." "I heard about you." ""Ornery" is the word they used." "That's just from my friends." "I mean, for you and your backups singers," "I'd be willing to get downright nasty." "Jenkins, please." "I don't want you to get hurt." "I wouldn't be worried too much about me, Colonel." " I'm immortal." " Oh, we know." "That's why Baird gave us this." "Are you sure you can reverse this?" "He's no good to me dead." "Yeah." " All right, people, let's move it." " Yes, General." "Grab the artifacts and get 'em out of here." "You take those." "I'll grab the spear." "Man:" "Take that way." "We'll go in here." "Move, move!" "Yeah, you know what?" "Check behind, as well." "Just reach on over, it's fine." "Man #2:" "Right, all the volumes, right?" "Reach up behind that shelf." "Nah, nothing here." "Just the books." " All right, you got it?" " Yeah, I got this end." " Let's go." " Come on through." "Let's close it back up." "Jake:" "Thanks for the ride, man." "Appreciate it." "Man:" "No problem." "Got it." "We're too late." " This is us." " Lift it up." "We gotta get closer." "Man:" "Strap it down." " Sign here." " Eve." "Thank you." "Ezekiel:" "I don't believe it." "She sold us out." "I'd like to have a word with him." "I know you don't want to hear this, Jenkins, but I had no choice." "DOSA was gonna take the Library with or without my help." "At least this way, I could make a deal... the artifacts for the Librarians." "Everyone's spared." "Apparently not everyone." "I tried for your release." "They wouldn't have it." "Of course not." "My immortality makes me a living artifact." "Jenkins, please." "I had to protect the Librarians." "It's my job." "I'm their guardian." "Your job?" "Your important job was protecting their souls!" "And by doing this, you have shattered them irrevocably." "In one single act, you have destroyed everything we have ever worked for." "So go right ahead, rationalize all you want." "But the hard truth, Colonel?" "No one was spared." "Please just get me out of here." "Let's go." " Hello?" " Flynn, where are you?" "Playing a little cat and mouse with DOSA in the Library." "How about you?" "Ezekiel:" "Inside the annex doing the exact same thing." "You're already back from Mount Rushmore?" "Jake:" "It was a trap." "DOSA sent us there to get rid of us." "Flynn, it's Eve." "She turned on us." "She's helping DOSA pillage the library." "I know." "But, listen, we can't think about that right now." "Protecting the Library has to come first." " Where's Jenkins?" " DOSA's got him." "They loaded him onto a truck to who knows where." "You have to follow him." "You have to bring him back here." "He'll know how to initiate the fail-safe." "Fail safe?" "You mean that thing when the Serpent Brotherhood broke in and the Library folded in on itself thing?" "Cutting the Library off from the outside world is the only chance we've got." "Thanks Judson and Charlene," "Jenkins is the only one who knows how to do it." "You have to bring him back here." "What about you?" "I'm gonna try and save as many artifacts as I can until you get here." "And, Flynn?" "We're so sorry." "Yeah, me, too." "It's never easy, is it?" "Doing the right thing?" "When the dust settles, I hope you realize how much you've helped your country today." " I'm proud of you, Eve." " Thank you, General, but my conscience is the least of my concerns." "There's a sarcophagus." "It's an Egyptian deity called Apep." "We've been looking everywhere for it." "We just can't find it." "That's because we have it." "We retrieved it from Egypt." "It's been in safe storage while we were setting up the operations." "Actually, it's being delivered as we speak." "You're telling me you have it, now?" "Yeah, it's completely secure." "And I wouldn't worry about Apep." "Took him into custody after that whole Boston Museum mess." "General, you don't understand." "You don't have Apep." "You have the person he possessed." "He's a dangerous spirit who could be coming back to his sarcophagus to rejuvenate his powers." "Well, with our security protocols, not a chance." "But we have to be sure." "Fine." "I'll prove it to you." "Come on." " Take us to the port." " Mm-hmm." "Keep rolling." "Roll through." " Keep it coming." " You're good." " All right, lock it up." " Copy that..." "Make sure I'm on the list for the no-admittance gate." " Right, got it." " Good." "A little more." "Keep coming." "More." "A little to my left." "Keep it coming." "Keep it coming." "All right, that's good!" "Drop it down." "All right, okay." "Looks like they're storing the artifacts underground." "Including Jenkins." "Come on." " That's it!" " Another annex room." "Hey." "Go." "Oh, my God." "They built their own library." "Look at this." "Polycarbonate bulletproof glass, titanium framing, magnetic fusion containment field." "It's exactly like the Library, only instead of using magic to contain the artifacts..." "They're using technology." "Wait, where are all the guards?" "With security like this, who needs 'em?" "Poor thing." "DOSA's found a way to trap 'em." "It's like they studied the artifacts beforehand." "Jenkins!" " Jones!" " Can you get us in?" "DOSA's good, but they're not that good." " Nice!" " Are you okay?" " Are you hurt?" " He can't hear you." "It's double-A polycarbonate." "This thing's locked down six ways from Sunday." "Ezekiel, get in there." "I would pick the lock, if there was a lock to pick." "I've never seen anything like this." "I wouldn't know where to start." "Maybe I can help." "See this?" "It's asking you to calculate the largest Mersenne prime, which is an extremely rare class of numbers." "Mersenne primes are so large that it takes a computer a month to calculate them." "But they don't have what I have." "So maybe the answer to the equation is the key to unlocking the door." "Got it." "Aah!" "What's happening?" "The air!" "It's compressing his lungs." " Well, make it stop." " I can't!" "What the heck just happened?" "It's booby-trapped." "I think it goes off if you put in the wrong answer." "I didn't put in the wrong answer." " Are you sure?" " Okay, she's sure." "Look, maybe math is not the key to the lock." "These are Sumerian pictographs." "This is the oldest writing known to man." ""If you feed me, I will live." "If you give me a drink, I will die." It's a riddle." "Sumerians are credited with creating the first riddle." "The answer is fire." "It's fire, right?" "You give it kindling, it lives." "You give it water, and it dies." "Stop it!" "You're hurting him!" "It's fire!" "The answer's fire!" "I swear!" "I don't understand." "Well, now you know how I feel." "You two do realize what's going on, right?" "A lock I can't pick, a math riddle you can't solve, and a pictograph you can't decipher?" "Looks like artifacts aren't the only thing DOSA's studied." "They studied us." "They took our skills into account to engineer this thing." "This box, it's Librarian-proof." "Man:" "Ceramic vessel?" "I got it." "It was just behind the other one." " That's why I didn't see it." " Serial numbers match up?" "Just check the inventory." "I think it is... 217... what?" " Get it!" "Grab it!" " I can't!" "Get it!" "Come on!" "It's too fast." "Jump up there!" "Come on!" "This doesn't make any sense." "Face it, DOSA's outsmarted us." "There has to be another way." "Come on, Cassandra." "Think, think." "Maybe I should try entering the numbers again." "Both:" "No!" "We don't know how much more the poor guy can take." "Bested by the Serpent Brotherhood?" "I could take that." "Prospero?" "At least he was magical." "But DOSA?" "The government?" "We're smarter than the freaking government." "Yes, we are, and they know that." " What are you getting at?" " Think about it." "We're all experts in our field." "That goes without saying." "You really think DOSA found someone smarter than us to build that thing?" "Well, obviously they did, because we can't get in." "No, we can't, but it's not because they're too smart." "It's because we are." "DOSA was counting on us being Librarians." "They knew there wasn't a puzzle that they could throw at us that we can't solve." "They knew we'd outsmart ourselves." "That's right." "They bet against us." "So, what?" "We have to be dumb?" "Exactly." "You see, if the right answer to the puzzle is wrong..." "Then the wrong answer has to be right." "And not just any wrong answer, okay?" "It has to be the exact opposite of the right answer." "So let's be dumb smartly." "Come on." "Okay, so the opposite of the highest Mersenne prime is the lowest." "Three." "It's working." "Opposite of fire..." "Okay, so the opposite of the most complicated password in the world is the dumbest password." "Oh, well, finally." "How many Librarians does it take to get Jenkins out of a box?" " We had some complications." " Yeah, we had to be dumb." "Oh, yes, well I'm sure that was very difficult." "Flynn sent us." "He's still at the library." "He said you could protect it by initiating the fail-safe." "What?" "I don't know the fail-safe code." "Only Charlene and Judson know the fail-safe code." "Why would Flynn say I knew that?" "Bring it down easy." "Watch the guidelines on it." "Keep 'em taut." "All right, good." "You're down." "It's been under our control since Egypt." "Nothing has gotten near it." " Open it." " Mm-hmm." "Argon shield with infrared sensors and decibel detection." "It can pick out even the slightest bit of disturbance." "Homeland Security doesn't even have this yet." "If only you had the Opal of Nefertiti." " What?" " Protection artifact." "Creates a magical force field that wards off Egyptian spirits." "It's what we..." "I mean, they would use at the Library." "Colonel Baird, I assure you there is nothing that can get past these sensors." "It's been tested against all known forms of..." "All known forms." "I'm sorry." "I'm sure I'm worrying for no reason." "Obviously, your team has done their homework." "Should we finish up back at the Library?" "I'll catch up with you." "It's certainly been a long journey for you and me, hasn't it?" "I guess it's time to say good-bye." "So, good-bye." "I knew it." "I knew it, I knew it." "I knew you would try to talk me out of it." "Well, you can't." "I'm doing it." "You're not gonna change my mind." "Charlene:" "We don't want to change your mind." "Charlene?" "Told you we'd see each other again soon." "So, you know what's gonna happen?" "Oh, please." "On this side of the mirror, we get the scoop on everything." "So what are you gonna do, Librarian?" "I'm gonna do what I'm supposed to do." "The life I take has to be my own." "You know that as well as I do." "Yes, but I just wanted to hear you say it." "They'll be here any minute now." "Man:" "Mark that aisle as clear!" " Easy." " Careful!" "One wrong note, you'll send us back to the Stone Age." "What are you..." "General, what are you doing?" "Where do you want this set up?" "At the building's fracture point, which I will find soon enough." "Detonating the Library was not part of the deal." "The deal has changed." "Apep." "You know how long I've been waiting for this moment?" "To unleash pure evil?" "And the sweet irony that I will do it in the place that was built to contain it." "The death of the Library will be the rebirth of pure evil and you gave it to me on a silver platter." "Uh..." " This way." " Let's move." "Apep:" "Bring me the bomb." "Oh, thank you, Mr. Jones." "I had no idea there was a back door to the Library." "Yeah, inside that air shaft." "Nothing's impenetrable." "Jake:" "Today's just full of surprises." " What?" "Baird!" " Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!" "I can explain!" " Jenkins, let her go!" " Give me one good reason" "I should not squeeze the life out of her right now." "Flynn and I... working together." "We're a whole part of a plan." " Talk." " I didn't betray you." "There's no time to get into details now, but Flynn and I planned all of this to get Apep here in the library." " You tricked us." " How can we trust you?" "Flynn sent you to get Jenkins, right?" "To initiate the fail-safe?" " Well, how'd you know that?" " It's part of the plan." "Guys, Apep is already here." "In the Library!" "We trapped him." "Flynn is gonna use the Eye of Ra to defeat Apep and lock up pure evil once and for all." "It worked." "Everything's gonna be fine." "No, Colonel, it's not." "Because Mr. Carsen failed to tell you how the Eye of Ra works." "It requires a human sacrifice." " Flynn?" " Oh, my God." "He's going to sacrifice himself." "Flynn's gonna kill himself?" "No, Jenkins." "We have to stop him!" " Where could he be?" " You mean you don't know?" "It wasn't part of the plan." "I was just supposed to bring Apep here." "'Cause he knew you'd try to stop him." "We all would've." " The catacombs!" " Is there a portal in here, too?" "No, the Library itself is the portal." "If the catacombs gets fractured, pure evil could be released." " Final check complete." " Ready to arm." "Arming now." "Voice:" "Detonate in 30 seconds." " Leave now." " Yes, General." " Ezekiel:" "Come on!" "Let's go!" " Jake:" "We got company." "Move, move, move, move, move!" "Where are they going?" "There's a bomb!" "14, 13, 12, 11, 10, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one." "Get down!" "Jenkins:" "Watch it!" " Everybody all right?" " Mm-hmm." "Help me move this stuff out." "We've gotta get to Flynn." "I can hear Apep." "Hurry, come on!" "Jenkins:" "All right, all right." "Cassandra:" "Go, go, go." " Cassandra:" "Baird!" " Jenkins:" "Colonel!" "Eve:" "Flynn!" "Flynn, don't do this!" " Eve." " I understand why you think you have to, but you don't." "There's no other way." "Then we'll find one together." "If there were another way, believe me, I would do it." "There isn't." "You have to let me go." "You promised you wouldn't leave." "Please, Flynn." "I'm on borrowed time already." "I've been a Librarian longer than anybody else." "Please, Flynn." "I should feel scared right now, but I don't." "I feel grateful... to you." "And to the Library... for bringing me so much joy." "Good-bye, Eve." "No!" "I won't let you!" "I love you... always and forever." "Please!" "Flynn!" " Whoa." "You see that?" " Yeah, what is it?" "So this is what you look like, huh?" "Pictured you taller." "More muscles." "Librarian." "Psycho look in the eyes is right, though." "You have come here to stop me." "It is too late." "You have failed." "I don't think so." "You humans amuse me, clinging to your pathetic notions of "good conquers evil"." "Look around you." "The world is rife with war and hate and destruction." "Good is an aberration." "I'm only restoring the world to its natural state." "You finished with your little soliloquy?" "Because I'm tired and I want to end this and send you back to whatever hole you crawled out of." "No!" "We're too late." "Where am I?" "What happened?" " What is that?" " I'm gonna get her to safety." "General!" "You're gonna help me after what we've done to you?" "It's what we do." "There's gotta be another way." "I don't think there is another way." "I don't accept that." "No!" "You're Librarians." "You're the smartest people in the world." "Prove it!" "Now!" "The gift of inner soul." "I think I might have an idea." "It involves magic." "Don't ask." "Baird, can you get us across that gap?" "Come on." "Is that the best you got?" "A little gust of hot air?" "Think you need some new moves." "Fool!" "You cannot stop me." "Stop you?" "Yes, I've heard that before." "That's your problem, Apep." "You've always underestimated me." "You remember what I told you when we first met?" "That I would do anything for the Librarians, even die for them?" "I wasn't bluffing." "The Eye of Ra." "No!" "No!" "Okay, put it down." " All right, get ready." " Go." "Apep:" "No!" "No!" "It's almost over." "It's almost over." "No, we've found another way." "There's no other way!" "There's always another way." "No!" "The Monkey King said I could bestow the gift of inner soul." "I'm giving it to you." "I have the ability to transport thought." "I give you the power of thought." "No one needs this love potion more than you." "Here, have a heart!" "Clever, Librarians." "What is happening to me?" "To work the Eye of Ra requires a human sacrifice, so my friends found another human to sacrifice." " Me." " Welcome to the human race." "No, no!" "No!" "The ley lines are receding." "Flynn:" "Pure evil was leeching off of them." "Now that the pure evil's going, so are they." "You know, you guys could've thought of that a lot sooner and saved me a lot of trouble." "Ezekiel:" "You have some serious explaining to do." "How could you lie to us?" "You should've told us the plan." "We could've helped." "Well, that's exactly what we didn't want you to do." "You were our fail-safe." "If we failed and pure evil was released, we'd need you guys as back up." "And you working for DOSA?" "We knew the only place to battle Apep and make sure pure evil was sealed up once and for all would be inside the Library." "But battling would mean that countless artifacts" " could've been destroyed..." " So you needed a safe place to protect the artifacts until it was all over." "A facility whose security features rivaled our own." "Like one that DOSA had been building all along." "Clever." "You intentionally set me up to be possessed by Apep." " He could've killed me." " Yeah, but he didn't." "I think you should focus on that part." "I'm sorry." "We had no choice." "Very well, then." "You forgot one important thing." "I now have possession of nearly all the Library's artifacts." "You don't expect me to just hand them over, do you?" "You really think after what you've seen today, they're safest with you?" "I'm sure you'll do a great job taking care of the Loch Ness Monster." "And no one will accidentally open up Pandora's Box." " Nor touch Midas' hand." " We are not fools." "We're trained to deal with anything that..." "Or open an Egyptian god's sarcophagus and end up becoming possessed." "It's your decision to make." "Whatever you decide, we'll respect." "And with that, the Library's collection is restored." "I noticed you moved a number of artifacts around from where they used to be." "Yes, yes." "I thought it would be helpful to have a few artifacts close at hand just in case." "Eve:" "In case what?" "In case any of our Librarians decide to use magic again." "I don't think that's gonna be happening anytime soon." "What do you mean?" "We've decided not to use magic or the artifacts." "Or any of our newfound abilities, like my enhanced gift." "Or what I've learned from the Monkey King." "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should." "And you're all in agreement with this?" "A wise guardian once reminded me that the Library didn't choose us for our ability to do magic, but for our ability to know when to use it and when not to." "So we will use magic, but only as a last resort." "It's way safer kept in here where magic belongs." "Flynn:" "Spoken like true Librarians." "I'm reminded of one of my early adventures." "It was on the Serengeti, tracking a particularly pesky artifact." "Oh!" "Ooh!" "Streaming service plagued by visions from the future." " It's gotta be a hack." " Or a tech-savvy spirit." " Or a virtual wormhole." " I'll check the dark web." "I'm on Einstein-Rosen bridges." " I've got Nostradamus." " I'll make tea." "So, I guess this is the part where I apologize for keeping you in the dark and promise to never do it again?" "Actually, no." "You're Flynn Carsen, who spent years working alone and will spend years adjusting to working with others." " It's just who you are." " You're okay with that?" "No, but you're trying, and that's all I can ask." "So you're suggesting that we just accept each other for who we are, faults and all." "Yes, but you're lucky, because I don't really have any faults." "Flynn:" "You know, that's true." "See?" "You're learning already." "Oh, it's nice to have everything back to normal." "It certainly is."
