"Magic has limits." "Science has limits." "Magic can't kill cancer or take us farther into space than the Moon, so we've stopped trying." "But in the pragmatic world, the world of science they never stop trying." "I wanted the best of both worlds, but no one would listen." "Owner name is Armand Beaufort, high-end antiques dealer." "This is creeping me out." "Yeah, this doesn't feel right." "Stay alert." "He gotta be back." "Behind you!" "No!" "Hey!" "Thanks." "Right, where the hell is the coroner?" "Right here." " Sorry, Helen." " It's okay." " Any word on Poole?" " No, noting yet." "... while he is in a hospital." "The stiff's over here." "Clear the space, ...will you, boys?" "Another strange one." "The victim was killed the same way as a drug dealer, we found yesterday." "Is there any connection between them?" "I would say "yes"." "We've got nothing on a dealer, he'd been in river too long." "This guy's like fresher." "Think he can um... tell us anything?" "Well... let's ask him." "Okay" "Here we go." "Quiet, please." "Okay" "Mr. Beaufort?" "Mr. Beaufort?" "Mr. Beaufort ?" "Can you hear me?" "I... hear you." "You better talk fast, he is almost on the other side." "Did you see who killed you ?" "No." "I was working there was someone behind me weird loud noise." "Can you think of anyone who might want to harm you?" "That light." "It's so bright..." "Mr. Beaufort?" "Mr. Beaufort!" "That's it?" "What, 20 seconds?" "Half his head's gone." "You're lucky I've got him back at all." "I saw a coroner in Chicago bring back a guy been thrown from a ten-story building." "Well, you're stuck with me." "All I've got is a master's degree from Harvard in necromancy." "But if you think it so easy, you try it." "Wait, Helen, don't..." "Helen?" "Helen, come on." "Helen!" "Wait" "Look..." "I'm sorry." "My partner is in the hospital fighting for his life his wife is nine months pregnant..." "I know, I'm sorry." "I have overreacted." "Some people still say that women aren't as effective in necromancy as men." "And .." "They're crazy." "You're the best I've ever worked with" "Here is..." "Something I wanted to show you." "Have you seen anything like it ?" "No in ten years on the job." "The world gets stranger every day." "You can say that again ?" "The world gets stranger every day." "Yeah ?" "Yeah, what's up ?" "No, I still here, thanks." " No!" " Come on!" " No!" " Come on!" " Get these goddamn cuffs off me!" " Shut up!" "Do you need help?" " Come on!" " No, I want a lawyer!" " Come on!" " No!" "This lady locked up for possession of a controlled substance !" " Come on." " Tannis root?" " When was her last dose?" " Let go of me!" " I do not know, she said yesterday." " I want a lawyer!" "Oh, SHE - said yesterday?" "What, and you believed her?" "Did you check her eyes ?" " No." " Well, check her eyes." "Come here!" "..., get down!" "Get..." "Hey, beautiful." "Never, EVER, take the word of a criminal!" "You got eyes and a brain, use it!" " I was..." " Where's the wolfman spray?" "What?" " WHERE's the wolfman spray?" " It's in the car." " Come on." " You could have died yourself!" "So think next time!" " Sean!" "You could have killed everybody in here!" " Sean!" "SEAN!" "Let's go to my office." "Come on." "Sean, you wanna keep that door?" "These glasses are FILTHY..." "But pretty sure this boozoo killed down there anything." "Let's just hope, not us." "So what the hell happened, Sean?" "It was a bullshit call." "A burglary." "Nothing unusual." "We walk in the room, the room exploded, I mean..." "Never seen anything like it." "Poole takes from the back of the head." "Things just messed up." "I got hit, too." "One of my bad habits saved my ass." "Look at that." "That thing's stuck in my cigarette case." "I've never seen anything like it." "What is it?" "Give a sound ... forensics." "You're a one lucky son of a b..." "Excuse me." "Nothing." " No trace of magic at all." " What?" "How can you drive a piece of metal through the guy's head hard enough to kill him, without using magic?" "It's a hell out of me." "You see, the perp was carried off by a gargoyle." "Yeah-yeah, but that's a dead end." "Gargoyles are cheap and easy to get on the black market." "Does Beaufort have a record?" "A couple complaints about trying to sell forgeries." "No arrests." "Screw it." "I'll go back and scoop it out myself." "Forensics has been all over it." "probably cast every spell in a book." "Maybe I'll find something he missed." "Sean..." "Look, I have no complaints about your work." "Methods may be... unorthodox, but you get results." "Justdon'tshowtopeoples'faces" "I'm not the one who makes a big deal out of it." "I know you, Sean." "Damn, we were partners for a long time, man." "And I owe you." "Just don't do anything stupid, right?" "Like what?" "Don't rub it in their noses, Sean." "Most cops believe that this... 'science' does not have any business with police work at all." "Okay" "Whatever you say." "You too, huh?" "Easy." "Find anything?" "Yeah, this." "If that's a narcotic that could be a connection to our dead drug dealer." "It is obviously not magic, in nature ... would have found it." " I'll analyze it." " Ah, ah, ah, no-no-no." "It's a..." "I gonna try something first." "Dusting every fingerprint?" "There's nothing to be ashamed of, a lot of labs just starting deal with the process." "It's not admissible in court, but... it can help when standard magic techniques don't work." "Yes, but don't advertise it, I apparently, I have a reputation." "I know you don't use magic in your interrogations." "I don't trust Truth spells." "They alter the perp's consciousness, that's like he's drunk." "They won't lie to you, but they might forget useful information." "Or just... pass out altogether." "You know what I trust?" "Looking a man in the eye." "I don't understand how my car works or how you can raise a guy from the dead." "but I know" " I know, if someone's lying to me." "I see it when they blink, sweat breathe... they know I'm not using the magic." "But I still know they are lying." "That's when they crack up." "Every time." "Come down to the morgue with me." "I want to show you something." "Zombies, really?" "Come on, how can you work with zombies?" "God." "The only difference between them and Mr. Beaufort here is that they making themselves useful." "See these burns around the wound?" "Killer's weapon emitted small..." "burst of flame, ...some type of fire-based... magic." "My colleagues and I cast every diagnostic spell there is, and we couldn't identify any magic." "The killer must have cloaked it." "This means he's a wizard." "I've never seen anything like it." "This is powerful magic." "We have strange jobs, Helen." "Yeah." "Saturday night and we are in the morgue." "I wish my second husband was a cop, he would have understood." "Is that what cost you your marriage?" "Huh!" "That's one of many things." "The divorce is final next week." "Advice from someone who's been there?" "You're still wearing the ring." "You're not divorced enough." "Yeah." "Call me if you find out anything." "I hate zombies." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Can I help you?" "Yes, ah... you're a scientist, right?" "Well, I... prefer the term 'pragmatist'." "'Scientist' has connotations." "But you are... you know about science?" "Well, why do you ask?" "I was hoping you could help to identify this." "It could be narcotic..." " could be a..." " I'm not interested." "You guys have a lot of nerve." "What you do not understand here, excuse is..." "I understand that, from the day I opened... the police have been harassing me." "Trying to shut me down for any violations." "trying to RUIN my reputation and run me out of business." "This is my livelihood." "This is also what I believe." " And now you want my help?" "I do not think so!" " If you stop freakin' out for 2 seconds, lady, just listen to what I ha..." "What?" " What?" " Sean?" "Did you tell the senator, that he is a murder suspect?" "Yeah, I took a little dramatic license." "I needed the wizard's help with investigation, like..." "I didn't think that it worked." "Well, it worked." "He's here." "Now get your ass down here." "I'll be right down." "You have a great place here." "I love the ambiance." "I concur with the lab." "No magical residue whatsoever." "Unless it was cloaked by someone more powerful than you." "Narrow down to less than 100 people nationwide." "Very important people." "Some friendly advice." "If you disturb them the way you did me..." "You'd be lucky if you just lose your job." "So exhaust all other possibilities first." "Okay." "Where were you Friday night?" "Really?" "I was at a fundraiser attended by 200 of our most prominent citizens." " ... me to contact them?" " That won't be necessary, Senator." "Thank you for your time." "I will escort you out." "I need the names of all wizards in the L.A. area." "whose power level exceed that of Senator Booth." "Two names found." "Annan, Kofi." "Arrived this morning for a speech at the Museum of Tolerance." " One." " Churchill, Winston." "Access available information." "It seemed the power Adolf Hitler drew from his occult artifacts, would be impossible to overcome." "But England was saved when Churchill located the fabled sword Excalibur." "It's power enabled London to withstand the Blitz until America entered the war." "After the war England's most powerful wizard since Merlin shocked Parliament by arguing that science should be explored as a legitimate field of study." "Many primitive cultures use science in their daily lives." "Rather than ridicule science, we should explore it, as a potential weapon against the occult power the Nazis used to kill millions." "Like many wizards, Churchill's life-span has been prolongued, by the magical energy in his body." "Today, at the age of 130, he is retired and lives quietly in California." "Time for a little visit." "Probably want some tea." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Anybody here?" "I don't take them seriously, you know." "Only read them for fun." "The stories are quite imaginative, but the science is a tragist," "No matter what planet they travel to, it's always inhabited by women that look like Sophia Loren." "You do know a lot about science." "Digs up bad memories, Detective." "The only reason I agreed to analyse your murder weapon is because it's been so long, since anyone's taken me seriously." "Let's see then." "Where did you get this?" "Home of a murdered antique dealer." "I can see that you recognize it, so might as well admit it." "Science is a powerful force." "A force that can kill." "Yes, some killing someone with science, would get you taken seriously again." "Right?" "You coming down to the Station." "Please, Detective." "If I wanted to kill a man, not only would there be no body, but his own mother wouldn't remember that he was ever... born." "I'm afraid I'm going to have to  wipe your memory wall is I just have to see how much you remember." "Interesting." "Interestingly, now I've learned you are a trustworthy man." "So I instead of erasing your memory I will enlighten you." "Come with me." "Don't do that again." "Look." " That's not our city, is it?" " Yes, it is." "A parallel Earth that has embraced the principles of science." "Come on, this is..." "it's an illusion." "Oh, it's quite real, my boy." "This world is where the weapon that killed your victim came from." "It's called a 'gun'." "The bullet you have, is from a .44" "Magnum." "It's a very powerful handgun." "It fires metal projectiles or 'bullets' at incredible speed, impelled by an explosive powder." "The reason you didn't find any magic is because they didn't use any." "But..." "That's not possible." "I worked into your mind, Detective." "Pride yourself from trusting your instincts." "What did they tell you?" "Tell me..." "I gonna need a pretty stiff drink right now." "Capital idea!" "..." "In most ways, our Earths rely on the same  basic culture." "History and institutions with one important exception." "Their technology is based on science ours is based on magic." "Our workers learn magic spells, theirs learn trade." "Their machinery is powered by ordinary electricity." "We use Ore Crystals that store mystical energy." "And on our world science is considered nothing more than a myth, sir the stuff of legends and childrens' stories." "Looks like the fairy tales would come to life." "That's right, dear boy." "With one major caveat." "I'm sure you know that iron is resistant to magic." "Of course." "Every Cop is issued a magic proof vest made with an iron mesh weave." "Yes, well..." "Their world has a much higher natural concentration of iron than ours." "Perhaps that's what inhibits the magic." "Or perhaps things just evolved differently there." "Indeed." "Science has limits, magic has limits." "Magic can't cure cancer or take us further into space than the Moon." "So we've stopped trying." "But in the pragmatic world, the world of science, they never stop trying." "I want the best of, um..." "best of both worlds, but..." "No one would listen." "Where did you get this mirror?" "Oh!" "I made it." "It took me 20 years... and an enormous amount of mystical energy." "Or maybe someone in that world also made a mirror." "Yes, my boy..." "I am afraid that is a certainty." "I have to show this to my Captain." "Oh, please, good God, no." "If the existence of this world had to become public, the people would want to trade with it and-and explore it." "Someone from there has come here." "Has killed three people, one of them was my partner." "Son, I'm sorry about that." "But the barrier between the dimensions is unstable." "Large gateways could cause the barrier between two dimensions to collapse." "And that would be disastrous." "The killer is already tampering with the barrier." "We have to stop him, before it's too late." "Haven't you ever wondered why are you so different?" "Funny, my soon-to-be ex-wife, asked this question all the time." "I believe you are uniquely qualified to solve this case." "Me ?" "Why me, you're the wizard here." "Most people on our world have a counterpart on the other." "If they do not, they are known as 'the paradox', as much a part of that world as this one." "And what has that got to do with me?" "Steady, old man" "Steadyintheranks" "What?" "Waitforit" "Filthy bastard!" "Ah!" "Die!" "Fool." "Bloody hell!" "Churchill?" "Are you okay?" "I've run in a bad way, Sean." "I am afraid, my magic is failing." "How in the world did you manage to get struck by a piece of lead ?" "An experiment went awry." "One of your science experiments, I bet." "One that blew that hole in the side of your house." "Indeed." "I'd guess the fragment is lodged in your gut." "I say 'guess' because my spells won't tell me." "For the same reasons yours won't work." "The metal in your body inhibits magic." "Yes." "Is it serious?" "The wound itself, no." "But the magical energy inside your body is what's been keeping you alive, Winston" "And now..." "It's... it's gone!" " You gotta get it out." " But how?" "No spell will do it." "I've heard Myths about cutting into the body, but it is a primitive procedure and would probably kill him allright." "Well... thank you, Gwenda." "I trust I can count on your discretion." "Of course." "Stay in bed." "Don't exert yourself." "I'll ask around." "Maybe I can figure something out." "Winston?" " No." " Absolutely not." " Thank you, Doctor." " Rest." "Please squash me in." "Other world..." "Their science could help you." "Can we go there without hurting the dimension barrier?" "Now, uh..." "A small scale occasional travel wouldn't damage the barrier." "We could go, if I still had my magic." "But in my age and my condition..." "It would kill me." "We've got to do something!" "Sean, I've lived two men's lifetimes." "I don't fear death." "But before I pass I would like to know that our is world safe." "You can't help me but you can save our world." "This is the scumbag who killed Poole." "I need it set out nationwide." "Pull over, Sean." "Playing with fire, my friend." "That was some crap you pull on the Senator." "I mean, why didn't just ask me?" "My magic's very powerful, I can analyze it." "I needed a wizard." "Please, Sean." "I've always had you back." "Then you go around me to do this, why?" " You would have said "no"." " Yes." "Well, at least I would have been prepared, when you did it anyway." "So, got any other leads?" "Yes, just one I was saving for when I really got desperate." " We're closed." " Hell, I have a few questions." "Oh, and you figured you were so charming last time," "I couldn't possibly refuse." "I want you to take a look at this." " I'll pay for that." " What is that?" "Science." "Someone used this weapon, to murder three men." "I'm trying to stop him and I need your help." "I didn't get your name?" "Um.." "Sean Nault." "Well, Sean, you certainly know how to get the lady's attention." "Yeah, well, still trying to get..." "used to using this thing." "Are you sure that's a safe place?" "Maybe not ." "Blasting powder." "The Chinese invented it centuries ago for fireworks, before magic made it obsolete." "What kind of weapon is that?" "It's a .44" "Magnum." "The most powerful handgun in their world." "To blow a man's head clean off." "About that powder I gave you," "Well," "Here... is a plant in South America called 'The Coca'." "It's used by indigenous people for medicinal purposes." "And this is... highly concentrated powdered form, definitely a narcotic." "So, all signs point to the scientist?" "Yeah, but if your suspect rode a winged horse, then he is not a scientist." "Horses aren't born that way there're altered by magic, like three-headed dogs." "For some of us that's unnatural and cruel." "You need a permit to own one." "I've been chasing the gun, when I should've been chasing the horse." "Thank you." "Um..." "Lenore..." "I could use your help." "I know you have a store to run here, but  but the Department would compensate you for your time." "if you're willing..." "After what you've shown me just try to keep me away, Detective." "Let's go." "You okay?" "Zombies." "I hate zombies." "Exotics Inc. is the exclusive supplier of exotics for the West Coast." "Law enforcement is their main client." "Okay 20 million dollar beast, people!" "Keep him down!" "Grab the rope." "Don't just stand there!" "Grab the rope!" "Careful!" "Easy!" "Easy." "Grab!" "Grab the rope!" "The animal has an obvious distress." "Easy." "This is side of magic that I hate." "If people only knew what it took for..." "Down, down, will ya?" "Easy." "Easy." "Stop, stop, stop." "It's okay." "It's okay." "It's, okay, calm down." "Calm down." "Don't be scared, calm down." "Good." "Good." "Here we go." "Beautiful boy." "You have a lovely set of wings." "No one's gonna hurt you." "It's okay." "How'd you ... to do that?" "It's called 'behavior science'." "Do you want a job?" "Mr. Ebett, Detective Nault." "I called you earlier." "You have a moment to talk about your license?" "We did nothing illegal." "My company is the only one on the West Coast licensed to create magical creatures." "Every sales document ... a master list." "Oh, I've checked the Agency list before I came down here." "None were reported missing." "Then someone else created the horse you're looking for." " Illegally." " Who?" "I mean  a magic like that takes years to learn." "And it's pays well." "Someone's could do it, wouldn't be flipping burgers, maybe working for you." "Detective, you can go through my files." "But only because I know my employees are above reproach." "There is a thriving black market for exotics." "Hundreds are smuggled into this country every year." "So, you do what's necessary to clear my stuff." "And then kindly start harassing people who are actually breaking the law." "Well, that was interesting." "Yeah, between the two of us, I managed to piss off everyone in the building." "Yes." "You know, I ran a file check on every employee." "They are all clean." "Did you find anything?" "There is a black market for exotics." "But the demand for horses is slim." "You just can't ride, not without getting busted." " What about the gun?" " No one's ever heard of anything like it." "And nobody recognized the gun's sketch, either." " I will catch a break." " Hmm." "What got you in the science?" "Well..." "It just makes sense, you know?" "I mean, magic obviously works, but I can't explain it, so  I don't trust her." "Well, there's explanations for magic." "Yes, I went to school." "I heard all about it." "The world' s full of this mystical energy that we tap into." "I even know a few spells." "But... why does it work?" " Do you know what I'm saying?" " Yes." "It doesn't bother most people, it works is all that matters, but that's just not enough for me." "I know what you mean." "In the words of science, there is a 'logic' to it." "You're a scientist." "Oh, I know a spell." "Just... can't keep the damn thing that work, but I..." "Fine, I'm a scientist." "If people like us just came out of the class, the world would be full of scientists." "To share that." "What's up, Helen?" "I got your sketches set out to abo..." "In the hospital?" "In the morgue." "I'm on my way down." "What did this to him?" "Well, shards of stone in the wounds." "Slight magical residue, associated with exotics." "A golem or gargoyle." "Have you I.D. 'd him?" "No, not yet." "But we've got the word out." "Criminal records, missing persons." "We'll turn up something." "Then hold your breath." "It's something you should see." "A world." "A whole world based on science." "Ah, so our John Doe came from there?" "Or was brought over." "He used restricted items." "Winged horse, Gargoyles." "Didn't get them in his world." "He had a ... partner here." "Who?" "That's the question." "I would search his place for clues." "And his place... is over there." "Oh, you have to take me with you." "Planned on it." "By the way, we are going now." "But how do we get from here to there?" "With my help." "Ladies, let me introduce Sir Winston Churchill." "Oh, call me Winston, please, for God's sake." "Come here." "Come towards me." "I will place my hand on you." "They have strong powers." "Stronger, they are stronger than most necromancers." "My power is almost gone." "But I know this peril and I can guide you." "There is no danger to you but for those who make the journey." "If I make a mistake they could die." "The dimensional barrier has been manipulated by someone powerful enough to shatter it." "If we do nothing, the future of both worlds is in jeopardy." "Indeed." "I hope you know what you are doing." "That's funny." "The last person who asked me that was Neville Chamberlain." "We bring you back after 24 hours." "The trip will be quite a strain on your system, so find a place to rest." "Light sleep is the best way so that your body readjust." "Place the runes in accordance with the vision you see in your mind's eye." "Well, do it." "Inwoke you!" "Godspeed!" "Now!" "We made it." "Are you okay?" "Yeah, just a little dizzy." "Oh!" "Okay." "So what do we do first?" "Well... we need to get the money." "Theirs are slightly different from ours." "Fortunately, gold has value here like it is in our world." "Churchill gave me some, let's go." "Can see you've got about five grand of the gold here." "Yes, I'll give you 300" "But you-you have said it is worth 5 grand." "No, not to me.To me it's worth about 300." "Take it or leave it." "These guys are the same, no matter what planet you are on." "Alright, uh... what about the ring?" "Whoa, a wedding ring." "So ?" "Got to make me retired." "310" "Ten bucks for the ring?" "I can live with that." "How much for that?" " Oh, it's not for sale." " Oh, no, no." "I was talking about you, sugar." " How much for a fat lip?" " Whoa, man!" "Relax, slick!" "I was just playing." "Seek some therapy or something." " What did I say... 210?" " 310!" "Right. 310th" "I need bullets for this." "Um..." "You know what?" "It's on the house." "Thank you." " What now?" " Get some rest." "Rest is our weapon." "Oh, ssshhit." "I..." "I thought he was gonna give us two rooms." "He must have assumed that you and I, we..." "It's fine." "I..." "Yes, sergeant, not much left here..." "It's all about science in this crime scene investigators, etc." "It's all about science in this crime scene investigators, etc." "You might use dental records to indentify the body." "You know, if they can't identify a corpse here?" "They use dental records." "Dental records!" "I mean... who would have thought?" "Another thing" "You know that peoples' bodies change when they're luying?" "Like sweat, heartbeat, eye contact." "I mean I-I-I can always tell." "I can." "Always.Tell." "But now I finally understand why." "I know." "Everything so real here." "It makes so much sense." "Almost had a hell of a time figuring this thing out." "You know, there is such a sense of freedom in this world." "People can go as far as their abilities and their intelligence will take them." "Supposed to be that way back in our world, but that's just a big old lie." "In our world, if you don't have a talent for magic, you just never meant anything." "Never accept that." "That's because you are different than most people." "So they keep telling me." "Thank you for bringing me." "You're welcome." "Good night." "Excuse me, Detective Sharpe?" "Thank you." "Detective?" "Yes, Chris Sharpe, can I help you?" "Nault, Hollywood Station." "trying to  I.D. this guy." "A witness places him at a crime scene." "Wait a minute" "Yeah." "Clyde Hillman, missing person." " Is he a victim or perp?" " Perpetrator." "Wouldn't think." "Big shot scientist like him." " Scientist?" " Yes, Professor of Physics." "I figured suicide, my partner thought that he was hooked up with terrorists." "He have may been involved against his will." "Can you copy the file?" "Sure, it is a copy, you keep this one." "Thank you." " Give me your cell number, I'll give you a call for anything else." "You know, it-it's not working." "You know what, I'll call you at the Hollywood Station." "I'm undercover." "Give me a call there." "I am in room eight." " Good luck." " Thanks for this." "Well, we're after a good start." "I called myself." "The line was busy." "Where did you get that?" "An ad  on the back of a comic book." "After you." "Thank you." "Look at this." "The police report says that Hillmann's colleagues from the University have been over this." "Couldn't make sense of it." " They thought he was going insane." " Well, they were wrong." "They are called runes." "This is how he moved back and forth." "If we can use this with our mirror..." "We could bring over equipment, machinery, maybe save Churchill." "Why didn't the police figure this out?" "The police didn't know what they were looking for." "We do." "It's a big place, let's split up." "Call me if you see anything." "Okay" "A Minotaur in a science world." "Hillman, what are you hiding?" "Let's see here." "Well only one way to get you up, big boy." "Sean!" "SEAN!" "Did your mother ever tell you not to play with Minotaurs?" "What we got here?" "Okay, now what?" "This morning, when you were talking to that cop..." "I ran into this guy that I knew, and he didn't recognize me." "I called my parents, and my Mom said they didn't have any children." "Churchill told me that some people don't have counterparts on this world." "Maybe that explains why you have such a gift for science." "I don't exist here." "Don't feel weird about it." "I could live here..." "Belong here." "Who is it?" "Detective Sharpe, remember?" "I, um... found out something interesting about the case." "Hey, we have to be somewhere in a few minutes." "That only will take a sec." "Mind if I come in?" "No, no-no." "Come in.." "What'd you find out?" "There is no Sean Nault on the force in the state of California." "In fact, there is no record of you anywhere." "Who the hell are you?" "How could that possibly FIGURE!" " Okay, let's go." " Did you hear that?" "I do not exist either! Oh, no!" "Don't shoot!" "Don't shoot!" "Let go now." "Put the gun down." " You okay?" " Yeah." "Ah-Ah!" " It's okay." "Just a watch." "Whadda you know, 4'20." "You know what that means?" "Oh my, would you look at the time." "Time to go." "Ciao." "Oh, the mirror, Sean." "Oh, no." "Oh, no, it's broken!" "Does that mean we can't get back?" "Not that way." "No, why?" "Did you find out anything?" "We found out who is behind all this." "Then the mission was a success." "Yes, it... was a success." "I also found out that I am a 'paradox'." "I knew that, old boy." "I've read your mind, remember?" "You must have another mirror." " We'll find him." " First, we gonna take these guys down." "This is all old school." " Where did you get these?" " From an informant." "Can't say who, but I know it's enough to get us a search warrant." "Gotta go, little pal." " Just to good times." " Good time." "Well there is all of them just important figures from our world caught in VERY compromising positions." "You use the machines, to get dirt on these people, ...to get a protection against magic." "Yes, but who is they?" "Hillmann and who else?" " Almost finished." " Hurry." "Richardson won't leave us alone here for long." "Patience." "There, it's running." "Senator Booth, sorry to keep you waiting." "No apologies necessary, Bill." "My assistant Ernest and I would just go over our itinerary." "Please, come this way." "Son of a bitch." "That senator." "This is why he tried to intimidate me, to drag on the case." "Yes, not the typical drug dealers." "Churchill was the only local wizard, powerful enough to expose the senator." "That's why the Senator tried to kill him." "All right, let's me get that warrant." "This man is a Senator and we'll show him courtesy, as long as he cooperates." "He is an elite-level wizard, so stay on your toes." "What is this?" "Good morning, Senator." "We have a warrant to search your home." " For what?" " Evidence of blackmail." " You're kidding?" "Let me see that." "Well... it seems to be in order." "Come in." "Thank you." "Okay." "Let's go." "The senator is not living too bad." "Smith, Johnson, checked out the kitchen." "You two, stay here, suss this place out." "Sean, you with me upstairs." "The guy is a wizard, Captain." "Do you really think that will work here?" "Good point." "Sean, got something." "Doesn't prove anything illegal, only means we're on the right track." "Beaufort antiques." "Bingo." "Let's well give it a try." "Gentlemen..." "Those iron mesh outfits give you quite a false sense of security, don't they?" "Just too bad they do not cover everything." "You found nothing." "You remember none of this." "Captain, I've found something." "What did you got?" "Look at that." "So, you've found it." "It's never easy." "Hold it!" "I could cast a spell, evidence would vanish." "But it is important to me." "So your memories will have to vanish instead." "Now here's what's gonna happen." "Nothing was found." "You will clear me of any charges." "I may not be able to hurt you, but I can set fire on everything around you!" "I got this covered, Sean." "I got it." "Senator!" "Hillman and the Senator were partners." "The drugs, the blackmail, all of it was to increase the Senator's power." "He had his eye in the Presidency." "Figure that got out of hand when their distributors," "Beaufort and that drug dealer demanded a bigger cut." "Hillman killed them, that draw heat." "So the Senator killed Hillman." "Of course, the version we told the autorities left out any mention of the other world." "Well..." "Blackmail, political power..." "It's all so prosaic." "To be able to travel between worlds... and use it for such petty ends I wonder if there was more to it." "Well, that could be." "But all of them dead, we'll never know." "Winston, if you could just hold out," "I am looking for that mirror." "Oh, it's too late for that." "I know you think that if you had not come to see me" "I would have lived longer." "Perhars, but what years I had left would have been few and also would have been empty." "As I've said..." "Most people on this world have a counterpart on the other." "Few do not." "You are a Paradox." "As much the part of the other world as this one." "I'm finished here." "I want you to have this." "It was passed on to me, and now it rightfully yours." "After time you too will find someone who it... rightfully belongs to." "Fare thee well..." "My friend." "Fare thee well, my friend." "I'm going to the Senator's house to find that mirror." "I know you badly want to go back." "That other world was such an amazing place." "Now we could thrive there, Sean." "I'm sure Churchill wanted to go there, too." "I know you haven't known each other for very long, but he did really care for you." "You think?" "I think he was just happy to meet another kindred spirit." "Al I know I'm happy I've met mine." "No mirror." "I would bet my life..." "Hey." " Hey." " Any luck?" " No, no mirror." "Well..." "I've been thinking." "Maybe it isn't a mirror." "Maybe they travelled some other way." "Or maybe we could just be happy staying here." "Knowing what else is out there?" "You're not happy here." "I could be, if you weren't constantly reminding me." "Don't put this on me, Sean." "Look at you, trying to distract yourself with a file of the guy who's dead for the case that's closed." "This isn't a distraction." "Something's missing inside." "Churchill said, there is more to it." "You're the one who wants to find that..." "stupid mirror, to get out of here." "You only want to go to the other world, that's all you seem to care about." "Oh, that's just fine." "What?" "Are you just gonna walk out?" "Why did you lock up?" "Dental records." "son of a bitch!" "He's still here." "Sure, there is nothing unusual about his teeth?" "Nothing that I saw." "Take a look." "Not a damn thing." "First time I see the cop get excited about not finding something." "On his world, dentists don't use magic to heal cavities." "They fill them." "According to his dental records, Hillmann had three gold fillings." "This guy's got none." "This isn't the Hillmann from that world." "This is the Hillmann from our world." "Are you sure?" "They Department tried to I.D. this guy for a week." "There is no missing persons reports, no criminal record." "Nothing." "I've got information they don't have." "His name, his whole life is from that world." "Thanks." "Hi, you've reached Leonora." "If you called during business hours, I can not come to the phone." "Leave a detailed message..." " Can I help you?" " Yes." "What?" " Who the hell are you?" " I'm Glenn Hillman, I-I'm...!" " Who the hell are YOU?" "!" " Glenn Hillman!" "I'm Glenn Hillman!" "I am not my brother!" "I'm not Clyde my twin brother!" " I'm Glenn." " Twin?" "Twin brother?" "Your brother's dead" "He was living on the streets, the last I heard of him." "He was smart, you know." "He ​​was great in English and History..." "Just never had a knack for magic." "But he was always trouble from the time we were kids." "And he started drinking." "It was like he had this-this... hole inside him, which he kept trying to fill." "I thought I had a drinking problem." "Booze finally cost him his teaching job." "I gave him money, he spend it on liquor." "I-I finally had to tell him he was on his own." "I have a family." "Well... sorry for your loss." "I saw that coming for a while." "... the drinking got really bad." "Another officer tried, but I guess my brother was too far gone." "Another officer?" "Yes, that captain." "What was his name, couple o'weeks ago..." "Pappas?" " Pappile?" " Yeah." "He said that, um Clyde's been his high school teacher, and he wanted to get him into some kind of a program." "D-Did, um..." "Did you tell him, where to find your brother?" "All I told him about this shelter, where he sometimes slept on cold nights, but..." "I mean, you can't help somebody who does not want to be helped , right?" "No,no." "You can't." "I gotta go." "Thank you for your time." "Yes, w-w-well thank that Captain for me, will you for trying?" "Yes." "Hi, you've reached Leonora." "If you calling during business hours, I can not come to the phone." "Leave a detailed message and I will call you back." "It's, um..." "It's me." "Give me a call when you can, allright?" "I'm sorry... for..." "Just call me." "As a government official, the senator was entitled to own exotic animals." "I'm not saying that anything illegal happened." "You've got all the proper paperwork, your company is in the clear." "Well, I said you can look at my files, and that still the case." "Thank you." "Excuse me, Detective." "Damn it, Captain." "Hello." " It's me" " Where are you?" " At the store." " I'll be right over." "No, Sean, wait." "I..." "I'm sorry, I..." "Yes, me too." " I'll be right there." " No, Sean, wait." "Leonore?" " Sean?" " Hey." " I'm so sorry." " No." " I'm the one to sorry it." " No, you do not understand." "Hello, Sean." "Hello, Captain." " What next, you kill us?" " Kill you?" "Sean, you did me a huge favor." "Ah." "Yes, of course, I took care of the Senator." "Did he even know that you and Hillmann were partners?" "No.." "See, the good Senator thought he was using Hillmann." "But the whole time we were using him." "With all that power and influence boy, was he useful." "Once you were done with him, you've planted the evidence and..." "I did the rest." "That's a..." " ...brilliant." " Thank you, Sean." "He's not gonna kill us." "He just wants to send us back to the other world." "It's true." "But first..." "I really need to know, who did tell about me." " Nobody." " Nobody?" "You'll pardon me if I don't just take your word for it, right, Sean?" "For the once we get where we're going now I'll know it for myself." " It's freezing in here." " It gotta get a lot warmer." "Ah, so nice to see you again, Detective." "That's enough." "I owe you worse for that." "Count yourself lucky we are on a schedule." "Yes, I wouldn't want you to be late for your own funeral." "Sean, I'm... a little surprised that you no more appreciate that what we doing." "We live in a world that supposed to be based on equality." "But we know what you get is based on your talent in magic." "In the other world they have discovered D.N.A., robotics, space travel!" "We lean on magic like a crutch." "and our society has stagnated." "Each world is missing something." "Professor Hillman and I are gonna bring them together in a one." "It's insane." "Churchill said, merging the worlds could kill billions." "Kill is such an ugly word." "Some survivors will know magic others will know science." "We'll teach each other, create a better society." "A perfect society, with perfect people." "I think I've heard that somewhere before." "It failed then." "The world you want, would be built on a mass grave." "Of course you two, both to ... yourselves, Hillman killed his counterpart here." "And you, Captain, I bet your twin from the other world is dead as well." "Damn, Sean, you'd be right." "There is no guarantee this will work." "You have no idea what magic and science can do when they join together." " Magic?" "You know a couple of spells, you're not a wizard." "That's right." "You think this is what I look like." "We are operate behind the scene, Sean" "I have accomplished more than our greatest wizards could have ever dreamed of." "And now I'm close to achieving my ultimate goal." "Well, let's move." "Easy!" "I've been trying for years to breach the dimensional barrier." "Captain and I made contact." "Together we finally succeeded." "And we found we had very similar points of view." "Working for the greater good, it always requires... making difficult decisions." "With this the world will be a better place." "My finest creation." "This will open a gate way large enough to shatter the dimensional barrier." "and create a new Earth!" "Since you earned enough drug money to build this, your other partners became liabilities." "I've always said you're a good detective, Sean." "This way." "Sean, there it is." "That's right." "Beautiful, isn't it?" "Once we begin the final stage, we can't be interrupted." "So we need to know, Sean, who else knows about us?" "You're so predictable." " Is that a lie detector?" " I need it just for you." "Take it, Sean." "Answer my questions and this all will be relatively painless." "Is your name Sean Nault?" "Yes." "Now answer the next question with a lie." "Are you 100 years old?" "Yes." "Good." "Now, who else out of this room, knows about us?" "No one." "Looks like we gonna have to try that one again." "Do you expect me to talk, if you kill her?" "No, Sean." "I expect you to die." "I could shoot her in so many places, without killing her." " But what a waste." " Captain." "Allright then." "Helen!" "Helen, of the coroner's office." "She would interfere." "She's right." "Pick them up." "Pick them up!" " Is she right?" " She's right." "He's telling the truth." "Anyone else, Sean?" "No." "Good, good." "Well, all that's left for me to do is rewrite both your minds." "so that you can be happy, productive citizens of our new world." "That's it!" "You die!" "Drop it!" "You don't know how to use that thing." "Don't underestimate me again!" "Leonore!" "If I shatter that mirror, you will NEVER get back to the other world." "And I know how badly you want that." "What I have achieved here is the chance to get YOU what you've always wanted." "A place where you're accepted and understood." "You thought that was out of your reach, but it is not, Leonore." "You not..." "listening to him, are you?" "He's right." "He's right, Sean." "What?" "I'm sorry, Sean." "I'd be so much happier over there." "Take it." "Don't shoot the mirror!" "Get the machine ready!" "Get to the control room!" "All right, go to the other world." "You'll be safe there." " No, I'm coming with you." " It is not safe, I have to stop them." "I'm not leaving you." "Stubborn" "Get the machine-gun!" "Give up, Hillmann!" "You've lost your gun, I've still got mine." "You think you know what a gun is?" "Say "Hello" to my little friend!" "You can run, but you can't hide!" "You've seen our winged horse." "Amazing what police credentials can get you." "And with the Senator's, well..." "you can do even better." "So, meet Exotics Incorporated newest staffmen." "What does it mean, Sean?" "What... what is that?" "Move, move, move!" "Go!" " Get back!" " Hurry up!" "Go, go!" "Open it!" "Okay, it does not work." "Okay, here." "You have to go." "I'll make him follow me." "No, you can't possibly..." "It's that or we die." "Now get back through the mirror and go through the gate room." " No, we go together!" " No!" "Just go through." "I'll be right behind you." "It's ready." "You hear something?" "Get rid of him." "Oh, no." "God!" "No!" "Noo!" "You got to be kidding me!" "I can't." "It's BEGUUUN!" "It's over, Captain." "Why, Sean?" "In a few moments a new era is about to begin." "We got unfinished business in the old one." "I'm sorry it has to end like this." "You can't dodge forever!" "Kill him, you idiot!" "You could be part of the master plan!" "False plan!" "Sean!" "Sean!" "Sean, I'm here!" "Nooo!" "Sean!" "Nooo!" "Sean!" "Where are you?" "Leonore!" "It's okay." "I got you." "For once you know, I'll never stop looking for our way back to the other world." "Wherever you are..." "It's where I belong." "In most ways, our Earths are alike." "The same basic history, culture and institutions." "On our world, science was always considered a myth." "The stuff of legends and kid's stories..." "Until now."
