"Previously on Warehouse 13..." "Using the astrolabe unleashes a formidable evil that has to be eradicated." "Now will you help me, Arthur?" "Of course." "The metronome is for Steve." "I'm bringing him back." "[Gasps]" "Agent Jinks is linked to the metronome." "We do not yet know the downside of this artifact." "Oh, ow!" "Oh, they got me." " I don't see anything." " God, I can feel it." "[Indistinct chatter]" "Where's Artemis?" "No, no, you just..." "Finally." "You told us to meet you here 30 minutes ago." "You're never late." "Are you okay?" "I told them you probably got hung up yelling at kids to get off your lawn." "Yeah, or maybe you were busy inventing fire." "You know, from caveman times." "I'm not allowed to do those, am I?" "No." "I got a message from Hugo Miller." " Oh, huey!" " Oh, how is he?" "Oh, he's... he's still irritating." "And he's scattered." "But I managed to piece together that he's found an artifact." "We're gonna have to go retrieve it." "So, Pete, I'm gonna be sending you and Claudia." "What?" "But I partner with Steve." "I mean, I did just bring him back from the dead, so I kinda own him now." "No offense, Pete." " Nah." " No offense, Pete?" "You are going with Pete." "This is a job." "This is not a choose your own adventure book." "Ooh, why don't you come here, you..." "All right, Steve, you and Myka, you're gonna go to new Orleans." "You're gonna talk to a Dr. Nina Golden." "She's a therapist." "Apparently, a bunch of her patients have been cured overnight." "Well, maybe she's just a good therapist." "No, no, these people have severe issues..." "P.T.S.D., grief, paralyzing phobias." "And literally overnight, these issues have disappeared." "It's been going on for three months." "So we are gonna stop an artifact that helps troubled people become well?" "Yes, you are." "What do we know about artifacts?" "Any artifact, even the ones that apparently are just doing good?" "Yes, we've got it." "We're on it." " Good." " Great." "Everybody go away." "[Whispering] Pete, Pete." "Aah-aah, manhandling, Artie, manhandling." "I want you to keep an eye on Claudia." "What... why, what's wrong?" "Is she okay?" "No, no, she's fine." "She's just been through a lot." "And I just wanna make sure that she's not under too much stress." "Oh, all right, okay." "Sure, of course." "Good." "Bye." "Okay." "[Door closes]" "[Exclamations]" "It is such a treat to have visitors." "[Laughs]" "You know, I-I've been a nomad for the last couple of years, and I finally decided to quit fighting it and come back to my old pad, my home sweet home." "Yeah, I love what you've done with all the... the beige." " [Laughing]" " Yeah." "Sit." "Sit." "So, Hugo, do you, uh..." "Do you have something for us?" "I thought you'd never ask." "[Laughs]" "Take a look at these little beauties." "This, my friend, is a bag or marbles once owned by a young Bobby Fischer." "Huh?" "[Chuckles]" "Just one of these little cuties gives the holder intense focus and a powerful drive to achieve any goal he sets." " Cool." " [Chuckles]" "However, prolonged exposure can lead to violence..." "Uh, less cool." "And ultimately insanity and/or stroke." "I searched for them back in the '70s, but I was never able to find 'em." "And then I was, uh, waylaid by the warehouse computer system." " So how'd you get 'em?" " Fedex." "Well, that's weird." "Whoever sent these must have known these little beauties were way up on my most wanted list." "Uncle huey." "Hey!" "Here he is." " Agents Donovan and Lattimer..." " Hey." "This is my one and only nephew Brady." "Very nice to meet you both." "Brady's staying with me while he attends the Tilson academy, my alma mater." "Brady here got hold of the bag of marbles, which I left on my desk, and, uh, research papers, and he took them with him to school, the little devil." "I just got curious." "[Chuckles] Curious." "Did you hear that?" "I mean, bad, Brady, bad." "Tilson's competitive." "Especially this week, there's even more pressure 'cause of the I.M.T." "Oh, right." "The I.M.T., the international monkey... interschool multidiscipline tournament." " Like Hogwarts." " Oh, cool." "Less cool." "See, unfortunately, it's all tied up with alumni support." "So the parents and the faculty tend to push the kids a bit hard." "It's down to us and north lake prep, our crosstown rivals." "Both:" "We hate them." "So, Brady, you wanted the marble to focus you, to give you an extra boost?" "Yeah, yeah." "I mean, I used one to write my paper for the I.M.T. computer engineering event." "Wrote it in, like, 20 minutes." "It was awesome." "But he... he brought them right back before anything bad happened." "Well, actually, uncle Hugo, there is kind of a problem." "I mean, uh, well, I thought it would..." "I thought it would go away, but it's just getting worse." "[Mysterious music]" "♪ ♪ finished my latest tour in Afghanistan six weeks ago." "I'm a helicopter pilot." "And you started seeing Dr. Golden as soon as you got back?" "Alex suffered from P.T.S.D." "He was shell-shocked and withdrawn, and we hadn't even gotten to the core issues." "And then yesterday, his symptoms were simply gone." "Is it possible that you..." "Well, you're just having a good day?" "Except I don't even remember being P.T.S.D." "No, I've seen similar responses in several patients over the last three months." "And I'm worried." "Proper healing takes time." "Is there any connection between the patients?" "Any of them related, live in the same neighborhood?" "No, they're not even suffering from the same traumas." "A young Katrina widow, a child recovering from an accident, and Alex's war experience." "They're all completely over it." "Well, it's a good thing we're here to stop that from happening." "Steve." "And you're from the government?" "I mean, it's fine." "It just seems odd that the federal government..." "Uh, health and human services." "We're here collecting data." "We... we love numbers." "Uh, have you gotten any unusual objects in the office recently?" "Hm, objects?" "No, I-I don't think so." "Why?" "We'll need to see your files and your patient reports." "You can black out the names for confidentiality." "But we're here to help you find a link." "Of course." "[Thunder booming]" "Arthur." " Hello." " Brother Adrian." "I..." "look, this isn't a good time." "And I have not found anything yet to help you locate the astrolabe." "But I promise you..." "Exactly why I'm here." "I believe I found something to help us discover just who stole it." "[Thunder booming]" "Great." "Brady, you shoulda told me about this." "Well, it just started happening." "All right, well, we're gonna fix this right now." "Just stand back." "Prepare to be wowed." "Wow." "It's usually much "wowier" than that." "No reaction." " Kid, let me see your arm." " Yeah." "No change." "What have we missed?" "Well, I mean, I might have..." "Loaned a marble to a kid named Tommy?" "Bunch of cell phone videos in your friend feed." "A rather scrawny Tommy is currently in the process of beating the crap out of a much larger Slytherin." "Brady, you loaned out one of the marbles?" "Actually, I might have loaned out four of them." "[Bell rings]" "I know that boy." "He's a good kid." "It's only fair to lend out the marbles." "I didn't wanna be selfish." "Which would be admirable if you were sharing a bag of chips, or passing around a joint at a concert." "[Chuckles]" "Which would be really bad." "That would be terrible." "What uncle huey means is that artifacts are always dangerous." "Why don't you wait in there while I do my work out here?" "Good idea." "Hey." "All right, Tommy, show 'em." "Go ahead, show 'em what you showed me." "Brady said the marble would just help me focus on my goals." "You're not gonna call my parents, are you?" "No, just next time try a red bull." "Well, I don't get it." "Was beating up that kid one of your goals?" "No, but I had to get onto the I.M.T. calculus team, and there was only one spot left." "So that gigantor is a calculus expert?" "All right." "Look, we, uh... we're gonna need that marble back now." "Fine." "Agent Lattimer, thank you for waiting." "I'm still not sure why the secret service cares about..." "Uh, school violence." "Yeah, the president's made it one of his top priorities this year." "I'm in trouble, aren't I?" "Tommy, pulling this during I.M.T. week?" "Thanks to the absurd budget cuts our esteemed school board is making, we're all under pressure to generate more alumni support." "The atmosphere's already fraught with tension." "The board must see I.M.T. as a success." "I have to enforce a zero tolerance policy." "I'm sorry." "Great." "Hear that?" "The atmosphere's fraught with tension." "Yeah, throw in some violent, deadly marbles and Harry Potter becomes full metal jacket." "There's nothing here except a lot of seriously depressing stories." "Hey, uh, Steve." "You know, I know what it's like coming back after being away." "So if you ever wanna talk..." "Kinda different circumstances though, wouldn't you say?" "Yes, it is." "But still, talking's talking." "I'm good." "Really, I am fine." "Really?" "It's ironic, you know?" "The guy who can see lies is actually a terrible liar." "You know, Pete warned me about this." "He said if you started talking about feelings that I should just change the subject." "Really?" "Like Pete has feelings." "You don't wanna talk about it." "That's... that's fine." "You're right." "There is nothing in here." "Steve." "Steve, come look at this." "It's a jazz club right down the street." ""The altered scale."" "Does the logo look familiar?" "Alex had it on his t-shirt, so we know that he's been there." "Well, given how close the bar is, and how any patient who's been here would've seen it..." "Well, maybe we should talk to them and find out if any other patients like jazz and free drinks." "Both:" "I know I do." "Here's a list of the other three guys." "What if they turn violent like Tommy did?" "Hey, don't worry about it." "You're gonna be celebrating in no time." "Hey, brade-ster, you probably know their schedules, right?" "So let's figure out what classes" " your pals are in right now." " You okay?" "Yeah, yeah." "I just..." "I'm..." "I was careless with an artifact again." "And now my nephew is in trouble." "Hey, it's all right, accidents happens." "Don't beat yourself up about it." "You can just get Tommy to do that." "[Chuckles] Yeah." "Okay, guys, let's split up, and get us some marbles." " Come on, we'll fix this." " Right." "So what do you think, home in time for dinner?" "It used to belong to some old sheriff I think." "Jack Duncan, the most successful bounty hunter in new Mexico, not some old sheriff." "Details, specifics, they matter." "That's how we understand what these artifacts actually do." "Of course, of course." "It's fascinating." "Well, from what I've learned, this spur can help us track the movement of the missing astrolabe..." "[Laughs]" "The way a... the way a bounty hunter tracks a person." "That's... that's quite good." "Yes, isn't it?" "Unfortunately, the regents, they..." "They're our board of directors and they're rather strict." "And warehouse agents aren't allowed to actually use these artifacts." "Understandable." "However, given the danger of the astrolabe, isn't it in all of our interests, your organization and mine, to retrieve it by any means necessary?" "It would take a tremendous amount of digging into how this spur actually works to know what the potential downsides are." "See, we don't just rush into these things without a huge amount of..." "Research." "Mm-hmm." "These are my findings." " You have findings." " Yes, I do." "Histories of the spur's use, plus anecdotal evidence showing minimal downside." "Horses will be afraid of you for a couple of days." "Do you ride horses?" "What a relief." "So now you're free to show me how all of this works." "Ahh, this is exciting, isn't it?" "Yes, let's use that word." "Oh, my God." "Will you look at this place?" " Can you goo a whole building?" " [Chuckles]" "It could be any of these things." "Well, whatever it is, we need to be careful." "None of the patients can remember exactly what happened to them when they were here, which means that there's a memory thing attached to whatever it is that we're looking for." "I'm still trying to understand how losing horrible memories is a bad thing." "Because when an artifact makes it happen," "I mean, who knows what the price will be?" "Help you guys?" "Yes." "Hi." "Uh, we were just wondering if any new objects have shown up here recently." "New objects?" "[Laughs]" "There's half an inch of dust on every piece of crap in here." "Sorry, "valuable n'awlins memorabilia."" "What's this about?" "You guys cops?" "You look like cops." "I'm special agent Bering." "Special agent Jinks." "Dina Smith, special bartender." "Is this about smugglin' or something?" "No, it's more of a data gathering thing." "So are people pretty happy around here?" "It's the quarter." "If drunk is happy, then they're pretty happy." "Ups and downs, you know?" "How about these, uh..." "These musicians?" "They play here pretty regularly?" "Some of 'em." "I mean, musicians usually sign up for the nights they want, so..." "Uh, this one musician..." "Ethan?" "Looks like he plays here every night." "He's the only one." "Ethan Ellis, yeah." "[Playing trumpet]" "♪ ♪ wow." "♪ ♪ he's really good." "He's our prodigy." "Is he okay?" "He looks weak." "Yeah, it's some kind of nasty bug." "It just won't let go of him, poor kid." "How long's he had it?" "Now that you mention it..." "Must be almost three months." "He's been to a bunch of doctors, but they can't find anything." "[Phone ringing] Excuse me." "That is not a bug." "I was in less pain when I was dead." "So several people who've been here have recently lost their pain." "And one guy also here is walking around with a mess of pain that nobody can figure out for the last..." "Both:" "Three months." "Somebody has been giving Ethan Ellis other people's pain." "Declan, no!" "Put that down!" "I can't get a "B"!" "[Grunting]" "He wants me to change his grade." ""A" students in biology participate on the I.M.T. bio team." "And what, making your teacher's brain go splat makes you team Captain?" " Aah!" " Fine." "Don't change it." "I'll get on the bio team some other way." "They always run." "Why do they always run?" "[Grunts]" "And in one of the stranger things I've said on this job:" "Declan, give me your marble." " [Farnsworth buzzes]" " Hey." "You got it?" "Yeah." "Two down, two to go." "Not so hard really." "Very piece of cake-ish." "Aah." "[Grunts]" "How you guys doing?" "Uh, my guy's here somewhere." "I just gotta find him and reel him in like a fish." "A angry, overly focused, possibly violent fish, Claud." "I'm talking, like Piranha 3-D, so be careful, okay?" "[Farnsworth buzzes] Oh, there's..." "There's Hugo calling, gotta go." " [Grunts]" " Got it." "So we're thinking that Pierce, the boy with the third marble, might be in this seminar." " [Grunts]" " Whoa, whoa, whoa, grab him!" "Update, it's Pierce." "We have to stop him, uncle..." "No, no, no." "Brady, Brady," " as soon as Pete..." " No, no, no." "There's no time." "We have to get that marble now." "It seems that, uh, Brady has made the retrieval of that third marble his main goal." "He's very focused." "I can't..." "I can't let this happen anymore." "Brady." "Brady?" "Brady?" "How's Brady doing?" "It's getting worse, I'm afraid." "I'm trying to keep a lid on it." "That school nurse is alarmingly gullible." "I convinced her I'm a doctor." "I sent her to find an antibiotic that doesn't exist." "So, yay on that." "All right, well, once Pete gets Pierce's marble and I get this one, we're done." "Good, 'cause the downside is starting to kick in..." "Erratic heartbeat, high blood pressure." "I'm afraid these boys are headed for cardiac arrest or stroke." "Fret not." "I've got my marble in sight." "Okay, well, you need to win this one." "Gotta crush these north lake prep guys." "I know." "Hey, hey, look at me." "You have one goal." "Be the last one standing." "I will." "Okay." "I will." "Hi, do you have a marble?" "I'm gonna need you to close your eyes." "Picture the astrolabe." "Concentrate very hard." "I want you to concentrate." "Keep concentrating on the astrolabe, and keep that picture in your mind." "Now that you've got a very vivid picture, you can open your eyes." "All right, now all we have to do is..." "Oh, no." "I should've known." "When you use one artifact to try to find another artifact, especially one as powerful as the astrolabe, it gets very complicated." "I see." "Well, it's a good thing this wasn't actually Jack Duncan's spur." "Yeah..." "It wasn't?" "No." "I bought it at a thrift shop in Univille." "I wasn't sure of your intentions." "Now I am." "When did you start to suspect?" "The first time I was here." "You used the astrolabe." "You foolish, selfish..." "You've released an evil..." "I did what I had to do." "[Thunder booming]" "We're done here." "No more games." "Someone who's trying to hurt me?" " Come on, I..." " We heard you play." "You're really good." "Do you think anyone might be jealous?" "Jealous of me?" "No, everybody here is good." "Truth is, I'm jealous of them." "Well, has anyone given you any gifts lately?" "Anything, um, unusual?" "Or your trumpet, how long have you had it?" "No, nobody's given me anything." "And I've had my horn for years." "We're just trying to explain your illness." "Good luck." "In three months, the only thing the doctors think is that I'm dying'." "No idea why." "You know Billy Colfax?" "Was a wicked good sax player." "He had M.S." "He said you just gotta play through the pain." "It made him stronger." "So that's what I'm gonna do." "I'm gonna play through the pain..." "While I can." "Excuse me." "[Sighs]" "We got a good news, bad news thing." "Good news:" "Marble." "Bad news:" "This one was a little too volatile to leave behind." "Oh, great." "We're starting a collection." "I have to win the debate." "You ruined everything." "His dad thinks he's in the boys' room dry heaving." "We gotta hurry." "Where is Pete with the last marble?" "We have to goo this bag now." "Couldn't agree more." "Brade, you okay?" "It feels like my chest is about to explode." "We've got a wrinkle." "Well, tell 'em." "I don't have the marble." "It got confiscated." "Confiscated?" "By whom?" "Marshall, the headmaster." "I had a little anger thing in class." "A little anger..." "The master of understatement." "And with this whole zero tolerance thing this week, he took all my stuff." "He said I could get it back after class." "So the headmaster has the last marble." "Okay." "And his big goals are what?" "Probably kids getting a good education, right?" "Or making more money at the bake sale." "Car wash." "I'll bet he's putting together a varsity car wash." "So what's our next move?" "We need to find the headmaster and get that last marble." "Okay, Hugo, you stay with the guys." "Let's get the school to shut down this I.M.T. thing before it gets ugly." "Thanks for letting me look at this." "Yeah, I can't help but notice that..." "Well, Ethan plays here every night." "But three months ago, not... not at all." "Oh, God, he didn't wanna get up in front of a crowd till he got good." "I mean, he hung out here all the time, but just watching." "And he started getting good..." "Oh, gosh, about two, three months ago." "Right about the same time that he started getting sick." "Well, did anything change?" "Did he get a new teacher, or..." "Not that I know of." "[Sighs]" "But, you know, one night, this old jazz man came in." "And I remember because of the look on Ethan's face as he listened to him." "He was so enthralled." "What was he saying?" "He was saying that to really play, to play from your soul, you have to let your life's pain out through your music." "And to be a great jazz player, Ethan needed to experience more life." "More... more pain." "Ethan's music is the most important thing to him, isn't it?" "It's the only thing he thinks about." "Wow." "Thanks." "Okay, so if musicians..." "Really good musicians..." "Draw on life experience, pain, sorrow, fear..." "Yeah." "And all Ethan's ever wanted to do is be a great musician..." "[Coughing]" "Well, you think that he's doing this to himself?" "[Coughing]" "[Playing trumpet]" "Maybe he has an artifact that allows him to play through the pain, to become a real jazz player." "[Coughing]" "Even if it kills him." "Well, Mr. Marshall went to the gym, of course." "The last event of the I.M.T. is always basketball." "The whole school turns out." "Okay, thanks." "But I wouldn't bother him." "He was loaded for bear." "The school board's going to be there, and he kept talking about how they were going to get theirs." "I don't think I've ever heard him swear like that." "Angry headmaster has it in for the school board?" " I didn't say that." " Budget cuts." "He mentioned something about the school board, uh, doing some budget cutting." "More like budget killing." "Mr. Marshall knows this board would take down the whole school just to save a buck." "But I didn't say that either." "He's going for the school board." "And in a gym full of kids." "All right, I'll make my way to the gym." "You go grab Hugo and meet me there." "He knows his way around." "He can help." "Okay." "[Cheering]" "I-I don't see him." "I don't see Marshall anywhere." "All right, well, I got Hugo." "We're on our way." "Now, if the headmaster's not in the gym..." "No, no, don't worry about that." "I know every nook and cranny of this school." "And I remember one time when I was 14 years old..." "Uh, yeah." "More on that later." "[Cheers and applause]" "[Defibrillator powers on]" "We won't let you shut down the I.M.T." "Brady, what are you doing?" "We heard agent Lattimer say that he's gonna shut down the I.M.T. and he can't." "Tilson has to win!" "You can't just walk away from this." "Maybe not." "But I will not give you back the astrolabe." "I don't want it back." "I want you to use it again." "Undo everything I've done?" "No." "Do you seriously believe you have a choice in any of this?" "It should be your choice too." "There is a great deal more at stake than you know." "[Playing trumpet]" "♪ ♪ [coughing]" "Ethan, you need to stop." "Everybody's a critic." "We know what you've been doing." "You've been stealing other people's pain for yourself." "That sounds like science fiction." "Yeah." "[Panting]" "But you know it's not." "I also know I'm not giving it up." "No." "Don't worry about the I.M.T." "Go make sure agent Lattimer isn't shutting it down and I won't worry." "You know I can't do that." "I'm sorry, uncle huey." "Tommy, go!" "[Electricity crackles]" "There." "That ought to hold 'em." "Wha... wait." "Why did you do that?" "What?" "The world had lost hope." "The astrolabe was our only solution." "You... you have to believe me." "I tried to tell you." "I was there?" "Oh, yes." "Well, surely I..." "I told you you'd..." "You'd be creating an evil..." "An evil that I'd have to live with the rest of my days." "Yes, you did." "But I can handle it." "What about the rest of us?" "Will you condemn the rest of the world to live with your evil?" "[Panting] It's okay." "This is what I want." "[Coughing]" "Steve!" "Hey, come on." "[Coughing]" "[Sighs]" "But it's killing you." "It's worth it." "I can help you too." "No!" "I can take away your pain." "No, you can't." "[Grunts]" "Oh, my God." "What happened to you?" "This is all my fault." " This isn't your fault." " Yes, it is my fault." "Brady knew about the marbles because I showed them to him." " I told him how they worked." " What?" "Why... why would you do something like that?" "I didn't mean for him to use them." "But... he's smart." "He's special." "Oh." "Oh, my God." "You... you wanted him to become a warehouse agent like you." "That's... that's why you showed them to him?" "Uh..." "What is this?" "This is my pain." "Please stop." " Are you all right?" " Uh-huh, yeah." "I'm just having a little trouble breathing." "This is another downside." "What is wrong with me?" "Why are you taking this out on yourself?" "For 30 years, I didn't exist." "Then I got a second chance." "But was that enough for me?" "No." "I had to leave a legacy..." "Brady." " I was greedy." " No, reckless, maybe..." "But not greedy." "And I'm..." "I'm gonna be fine, I think." "What if I've run out of second chances?" "What if the universe is making you and Brady pay for my mistakes?" " Aah!" " Stop, stop." "You're choking, Claudia." "You could kill her." "What?" "Aah, no!" "[Panting]" "Aah!" "[Gasps]" "There." "See?" "It was probably just a little bit of stress." "I'm fine." "Brady's gonna be fine in a minute." "And by the way, I don't think the universe hurts teenage boys to punish their wacky uncles." "I did this to him." "Hugo..." "If Brady is going to become the warehouse agent" " you hope he will be..." " Yeah." "Then save him." "The only way we're gonna help him is if we find the headmaster and that last marble." "So we need you, Hugo." "We're running out of time." "I will not undo what I have done." "The brotherhood is more powerful than you think." "I work for some pretty powerful people myself." "You came into my house and stole from me, dismantled my life's work, and I will respond in kind." "Things have already been set in motion." "And unlike your regents, we follow no rules." "We do whatever has to be done." "[Farnsworth buzzes]" "Yeah?" "Guys, we got a code red." "The entire school's here." "No one can find the headmaster." "Okay, and my... my vibes are off the charts and..." "Oh, crap." "It's the school board." "The headmaster's targets." "If this guy's planning on getting revenge in here, there's gonna be a whole lot of kids caught in the crossfire." "[Cheers and applause]" "This is a lot of kids." "Yeah, and I don't need vibes to know this is gonna get bad." "Look, Hugo, if the headmaster had a weapon like a..." "I don't know, a rifle or something, is there any place he could hide to get a clean shot?" "Everything's exposed." "Well, he's here somewhere." "No, there was only one place we could..." " Pete." " Yeah?" "That door." "Where does it lead?" " The furnace room." " Which is where?" "Underneath the gym." "All right, look, you guys stay here and keep looking for him in case he shows up." "[Distant cheers and applause]" "[Grunts]" "You're in my way." "Stay right there." "Someone has to stop the board from tearing this school apart, program by program." "What is that stuff?" "Before I was an administrator," "I was a chemistry teacher..." "Another program they wanna cut." "Furnace will turn this compound into a gas in 60 seconds." "School board is sitting right under the vents in the gym." "That will be that." "They're not the only ones in there." "You're gonna poison the whole damn student body." "Collateral damage." "Stop the board, that's the goal." "It's good to have goals." " Yaah!" " [Grunts]" "Now that's how you knock somebody out." "Yeah, so if this stuff turns into gas..." "No, Pete, you've got to shut down the furnace before that happens." "Okay." "Um..." "I got it." "Eww." "It's all wires and circuits and stuff." "Oh, hang tight." "I'll be right down." "No, Claud, no." "You won't make it in time." "Just get everybody out of there..." "In case I can't pull this off." "Okay, Pete, come on." "Come on, Pete." "Think, think." "Just focus, focus." "What do I need to focus?" "A marble." "Come on." "[Chuckles]" "Hey there, little buddy." "I'm gonna need your help." "So please work and don't kill me." "All right, heathers, very nice." "Heather, Heather, Heather," "Heather, and Heather, let's not have a brain tumor for breakfast." "Everybody out this way, please." "Now whatever you do, don't panic." "Trampling each other will only make it worse if the poison gas gets out." "Did you just say poison gas?" "Yeah, it's kind of a chemical reaction, you know?" "Oh, my gosh, come on." "Hugo, probably best not to use words like "poison" or "trampling."" "Right." "Okay, boys, carry on." "All right, Mr. Davis, eighth grade shop class, you told me to start with the ground, so..." "Whoa." "[Laughs]" "Wow, that is so not uncool." "We're never gonna get all these kids out of here in time." "Well, just... just..." "Just a sec, Claud." "Pete, it's kind of a now-or-never situation." "Okay." "Here we go." "Up we go." "Okay." "[Powers down]" "[Laughs]" "Oh, Mr. Davis, Mr. Davis." "Oh, thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Hey." "You got it, right?" "Pete, your arm." "Pete?" " Pete!" " Hi." " Yeah." " Yep, let's do this." "What the hell was that?" "Did I just..." "Did I try to kill the..." "No." "Kill?" "No." "No, no, no." "What did..." "Well, maybe..." "What did you have for lunch?" "Nothing, just, uh, salad." "Salad." " Yeah, it's the mushrooms." " Yep, mushrooms." "It's all taken care of." "It's all... the government's taking care of that, so..." " Bad batch." " Mushrooms." "Whoa, good." "Thanks." "All right, let's go get that head taken care of, huh?" "Claudia, thank you." "No way, you were the one who figured out he was in the furnace room, so..." "Not about that." "Before, Brady." "Oh." "Yeah, sure." "Hugo, when I was really young, my brother was reckless and I lost him for a long time." "You just got Brady into your life." "Why would you wanna be reckless with that?" "Oh." "Right." "Hey." "My great-great grandfather worked with Scott Joplin." "Joplin left him this cigarette case, said it made him feel life more fully." "That's what he put in his music." "So you thought the case was a shortcut to inspired music?" "I was helping myself." "But those people, I-I helped them too." "People have the right to work through their pain on their own terms, heal themselves." "You have to learn how to live your own life, Ethan." "I'm 27." "It's a good time to go, you know?" "My... my music would live on." "Morrison, Hendrix, Janis Joplin," "Cobain, Winehouse, it's..." "It's good company." "It's selfish." "How dare you just decide to leave without thinking about the people in your life?" "The people who..." "Who love you." "Like who?" "Okay, you're not just selfish." "You're also blind." "You like... you like me?" "I mean, I like..." "I like you." "I just didn't think..." "Ugh." "Musicians." "Okay, there's some life experience waiting' for you right there." "I figured it out last week." "Whenever I get hurt, Claudia feels the pain." "The metronome might keep my alive, but..." "But if something terrible happens to you, it happens to Claudia too?" "And there had to be a price for Claudia bringing me back, but I won't let Claudia pay with her own life." "Well, what does she think about all this?" "You haven't talked to her yet." "If I tell her, she'll just stop me from doing what I have to do." "And you and I both know that taking myself off the metronome might be the only way to keep Claudia safe." "What I know is that I've lost too many people that I care about." "Sam died." "Dickenson died." "H.G. is God knows where." "I know." "I know." "I found your body in that hangar." "I won't go through that again." "There's another solution." "There... there has to be." "I don't see what." "Well, you haven't really looked yet." "Maybe it's time to start." "Ethan started getting better once we neutralized the case." "Though the sorrow and pain returned to everyone that he'd affected." "Well, now they can start to heal." "Uh, speaking of that, Artie," "I need to spend some time close to home." "Skip a few missions and just focus on processing, learn more about the metronome, how it works." "Take all the time you need." "Thanks." "[Imitating horn]" "Success, artifact retrieved, crisis averted, day saved." "Good job." "Bragging is unbecoming." "Since when?" "'Sup, Jinksy?" "Why are you wearing a serious face?" "I keep telling you guys, this is just my face." " I'm contemplative." " I don't know." "I'd say it's more "constipatetive."" "That's not a word." "I have something to make you contemplate a smile," "Revenge on TiVo." "Why does everyone keep trying to get me to watch that show?" "Hello, Artemis." "One artifacts." " Pete?" " Yeah?" "How... how did Claudia do?" "Oh. [Exhales] Scary, actually." "Scary?" "What do you mean?" "How scary, evil?" "No, Artie, scary what a strong, powerful woman she's grown into." "I mean, uh, Hugo said it himself," ""she's a force to be reckoned with."" "No, you'd be..." "You'd be proud." "That's good." "It's all good." "And wh... any trouble?" "Oh, yeah, pfft, nothing we couldn't handle." "I mean, sure, it took us some time, but we retrieved all the marbles, gooed the bag." "Kids are all right, yada, yada, yada." "Wait, wait, wait, wait." "Marbles?" "Yeah." "Bobby Fischer's marbles." "Yeah, yeah they showed up on Hugo's doorstep." "Good thing too, because that is one bad sack of..." "Artie?" "Dismantled my life's work." "What?" "Uh, nothing." "Nothing, but good job." "You go get some rest." "I'll catch you later." "Okay." "[Door closes]" "No, please, no." "[Beeping]" "No." "Adrian:" "Things have already been set in motion." "No!"
