"Downloaded from G2G.fm" "(Motor engine whirring)" "(Rattling)" "(Chickens clucking)" "I've just crossed the iranian border en route to the habala region where they've ordered the destruction of a network of caves by sundown tonight." "I believe that these caves might contain a critical missing piece of our history." "If I'm found dead, please know that I entered this country of my own free will, fully knowing that the punishment for trespassing here is burial up to your neck in sand and having a rock wall pushed on top of you." "But they would have to catch me first." "(Indistinct chattering)" "(Knocking on door)" "Hurry." "Come." "Scarlett." "Scarlett:" "Reza." "Thank you." "If they catch you, it would be very bad for you." "Yes, I know, Reza." "We will be quick." "Okay." "Here it is." "Reza:" "Here, use the ladder." "Okay." "Okay." "(Alarm blaring)" "We haven't got much time." "Scarlett:" "I know, I know." "They have already cleared the area." "I know, Reza." "Hurry." "Just follow me." "Follow." "Come on." "Watch your step here." "It's fine." "Go, just go." "Yes." "Come on." "(Whispering) Turn off the light." "Turn off the light!" "Come on." "Right this way." "(Man ordering indistinctly over loudspeaker)" "(Man ordering continues)" "(Siren blaring)" "We need to leave." "We are too late." "No, they are not blowing the caves up until sundown." "We still have a few minutes." "We're not leaving." "Hurry, hurry!" "Yes." "(Siren continues)" "Come on." "Shit." "Reza:" "There!" "Oh, my God!" "Oh, my God!" "It's even more beautiful than in the picture." "Okay." "We must hurry, please." "Okay." "There's more." "What are you doing?" "They're going to blow it up anyway." "I can't think straight with this thing on my head." "They will hear you." "Stop!" "I just need one minute." "Oh, my God." "(Scarlett exhales)" "Scarlett:" "Oh, my God." "Yeah?" "Reza?" "Do you know what this is?" "I don't know." "Oh, my God." "It's the rose key." "Oh, Reza." "Careful." "Please hurry." "I'll be quick." "Scarlett, stop it." "Come on." "I have to scan these markings." "I'm not leaving." "We must leave." "Now!" "I can hear them." "My father searched his entire life for this." "I can't leave now." "I have to get this." "I'm sorry, Scarlett." "I have a family!" "I know." "It's okay." "Be careful." "I won't be long." "Be careful!" "Scarlett:" "Come on." "Come on, Scarlett." "(Siren continues)" "Shit." "Okay." "Okay." "Man:" "Scarlett." "Hello?" "(Siren tempo speeding up)" "(Gagging)" "Scarlett." "(Explosion)" "(Screaming)" "(Cave rumbling)" "Shit!" "Oh, God!" "Reza!" "Reza!" "Reza!" "Reza!" "Scarlett!" "Over here!" "Scarlett!" "(Scarlett coughing)" "Come over!" "Come on." "Are you okay, dear?" "Are you okay?" "Come on." "Give me your hand." "(Scarlett coughing)" "I got it!" "I got it!" "You remind me so much of your father." "But, Scarlett, you must be more careful." "(Dogs barking)" "His quest was a path to madness." "My father wasn't crazy." "Everyone who hunts for flamel's stone is crazy." "They all wind up dead." "Scarlett:" "Do I look inthecamera?" "Benji:" "Yeah." "Thank you." "That'sweird." "(Benji chuckling)" "Benji:" "Um, so, you can start byintroducingyourself." "Right." "(Clears throat)" "My name is Scarlett marlowe and I'm a Professor at university college, London." "I have a ph.D. In urban archeology, a master's in chemistry and another ph.D. In symbology." "I'm also fluent in four spoken languages and two dead ones." "And I am a black belt in krav maga, so watch out." "Benji:" "That's a lot of degrees for someone your age." "Yeah." "My father insisted." "We had a very studious household." "Excuse me." "One second." "(Stammering)" "Pardon." "Pardon." "(Speaking French)" "Merci." "Mercibeaucoup." "Thank you." "You really need to learn French." "Yeah, I do need to learn French." "(Chuckles)" "Your father." "Yeah." "What did he teach you about the philosopher's stone?" "Everything." "That it's an elusive substance that could turn base metals into gold and can provide the key to eternal life." "Sort of crude representation, but basically the creation of the stone was the goal of alchemy which was an early form of science which studied transformation in all its forms." "And my father was actually the world's preeminent historian in alchemy." "So, your father, there was a lot of speculation that he was mentally unstable." "Is there any truth to that?" "Why?" "Because he killed himself?" "Six hundred years ago the greatest of the alchemists, Nicolas flamel lived here, in this house in Paris." "He was widely believed to have succeeded in developing the philosopher's stone which would have given him all the wealth he could dream of as well as eternal life." "When grave robbers, hoping to get their hands on the philosopher's stone tried to dig his body up out of the cemetery that used to surround this area here they found his casket empty, as well as his wife's." "Okay." "So this is Nicolas flamel's tombstone which he designed and carved himself." "And my father believed that the clues to the location of the philosopher's stone were encoded somehow in these arcane symbols." "But their meaning has remained a mystery until" "I discovered the fabled rose key." "It's a kind of rosetta stone used for translating alchemical symbols into aramaic" "which, unfortunately, I don't speak." "But luckily, I know a guy who does." "What are you doing?" "I just have to open this door quietly." "Benji:" "Please don't." "Scarlett!" "(Door slamming shut)" "I can't believe you just did that." "We just broke into a church!" "What does this guy do all the way up here?" "Uh." "He likes to, um break into places, like this and fix things." "Impressive." "That's a hell of a hobby." "Yeah." "Scarlett:" "George?" "Hello?" "I saw your bag, George." "I know you're here." "Hi." "How are you?" "Whatever it is, I want nothing to do with it." "I didn't even say anything." "I'll save you the time." "No." "Who's this guy?" "Who are you?" "I'm Benji." "He's making a documentary about my search for the stone." "Ah." "Of course." "Do yourself a favor." "Stay far away from this one." "I just need to ask you one favor." "George:" "Yeah." "Just one favor." "Benji, did she mention to you, the last time we were together" "I literally wound up in a turkish prison?" "(Chuckling) George, it was not a prison." "It was more of a jail." "Jail, in Turkey." "George, I'm sorry." "I couldn't let the lead go dead." "God forbid." "Well, chase your lead." "See how far that gets you." "I got a clock to fix." "I found the rose key, George." "(Chuckling)" "You did?" "Mmm-hmm." "It was in Iran, wasn't it?" "Yes." "I knew it." "And I need your help translating the aramaic." "Wait a minute." "Did you go to Iran?" "It doesn't matter who went there, George." "You did, didn't you?" "By yourself?" "Doesn't matter who went." "(Chuckles)" "You're a lunatic." "She... you're..." "(Laughing)" "You're a crazy lunatic." "(Gears creaking)" "So, you fixed it." "Yeah." "Yeah, yeah!" "Go, go, go." "Come on." "Scarlett:" "Are you okay, Benji?" "Yeah, I'm good." "Okay." "It's about to get really loud." "Coming?" "You coming?" "Benji:" "Yeah, yeah." "I'm good." "(Church bells dinging)" "Shit." "(Bell tolling)" "(Chuckling)" "Look at them." "George:" "Hearing their church bells ring for the first time in 284 years." "I'll help you translate." "But that's it." "(Indistinct chattering)" "She's pretty." "Benji:" "Yeah, she's really pretty." "She's got great legs, too." "She said we can have 10 minutes." "That's it." "Okay." "How do you know her?" "Professional circles." "Star is ammonia." "Okay, great." "Star is ammonia." "Is this making any sense?" "Just keep going." "Just keep them going." "Lime." "Sword is lime?" "Sword is lime." "Okay." "And what about the key?" "Uh..." "No key." "There's no key?" "No." "Why is there no key?" "He's carrying the key on his back." "Look." "So, if he's carrying the key on his back, does that mean that the key is on his back?" "It's on the back of the tombstone." "Scarlett." "No." "I need to have a look behind here." "Scarlett, no!" "Come on!" "I need you to help me." "Okay!" "Shit!" "Be careful." "Let me..." "I need to see the back." "Okay." "I can't..." "Watch your foot." "We're gonna have to put it down because I can't see." "Shit." "There's nothing there." "I can see that." "Ammonia sulfonate, distilled, with lime." "It's the mix of a couple of basic cleaning products." "Help me out here, man." "Benji:" "What are you doing?" "Okay." "You don't want to breathe this in." "Benji:" "This is not gonna end well." "It's on the back." "They will never see it." "George:" "Oh, my God." "And I need some matches." "Matches?" "No." "No." "Benji:" "We're not burning that." "Benji, give me your matches." "Scarlett, this is a museum!" "Are you out of your..." "Shut up!" "Shit!" "George:" "Oh, my God!" "This is not okay!" "Benji:" "Wow!" "George:" "Okay, that's pretty cool." "That's not "go to jail" cool." "But that's really cool." "Wow." "Get your camera." ""Winged vulture leads the way" ""with brightest light in darkest day." ""Underneath the heaven's reign" ""what is lost shall be regained." ""Halfway twixt the darkest gate" ""and this tablet laid atop a pairèd fate."" "So, "underneath the heaven's reign," ""what is lost shall be regained."" ""What is lost shall be regained."" "So that is, underneath the night sky or in the open?" "Or on the tablet." "There's a night sky right on the tablet." "Yes, good." "Okay." "So, darkest gate." "Hell." "Hell." "Darkest gate, the gates of hell." "The gates of hell." "Right?" "Yeah." "The gates of hell." "Okay, but that doesn't give us anything." "I mean, that's halfway between this grave and the gates of hell." "No, wait." "I have my dad's notebook." "Oh, my God." "Okay." "So this marks what they believe to be the distance between heaven and earth and hell." "If alchemists believed that the number of the devil was 741 then it makes sense that they would think that hell was 741 feet beneath the surface of the earth, right?" "So halfway twixt..." "So, 370.5 feet beneath flamel's tombstone is where we'll find the stone!" "Benji:" "Wait." "Hold on, guys." "How are we supposed to get 370 feet into the earth?" "The catacombs." "Right?" "Benji:" "The what?" "Okay, we're in Paris, so there are over 200 Miles of tunnels right underneath our feet." "That are holding the remains of six million corpses." "Benji:" "Whoa, whoa." "Six million corpses?" "Yeah." "That's where I would put it!" "Right." "Of course you would." "Flamel's grave was here." "With the catacomb map, would make it roughly..." "There." "Shit." "Wait." "Are you sure?" "Benji:" "What is it?" "What happened?" "Shit!" "Catacombs don't go under flamel's grave." "But if we burrowed through this wall here..." "No, you can't." "In this tunnel..." "The walls are solid limestone." "There's no way you can burrow in." "Plus, they've all been reinforced since pieces of the city fell into the..." "Well then..." "Wait a minute, wait a minute." "In 1774, about a hundred feet of Avenue denfert-rochereau was literally swallowed up into the ground by the city." "A couple of years later, the same thing happened..." "Barrière d'enfer, right there." "Followed by a third collapse." "Rue des innocents." "Benji:" "Why would the street collapse if there's nothing but solid ground underneath it?" "That's a good question, Benji." "So there's a hidden chamber?" "It would appear so." "We have to get down there." "You have to get down there." "I don't go underground." "Remember?" "Yes." "Sorry." "By the end of the 1700s, residents from all over Paris began to complain about the horrible smell of the bodies in the overcrowded cemetery." "Something had to be done." "Benji, get this." "(Scarlett reading)" ""Stop." "This is the empire of the dead."" "Wait, check out the patterns and crosses that they made." "It's beautiful." "Tour guide:" "Six million bodies, almost three times the population of Paris are housed in these quarries." "Making it, by far, the largest crypt in the world." "Benji:" "Seriously, Scarlett, this is creeping me out." "(Scarlett giggles)" "Get this." "(Scarlett reading)" ""At the sound of the trumpet, the dead will rise."" "Benji, here." "Cimetière des innocents." "These remains are from the same cemetery as the flamel graves." "Which means that..." "Yeah, we basically need to go about half a mile through this wall." "We need to find a way into the off-limits area of the catacombs." "Man:" "Go to the club called le showcase." "Sorry?" "Ask for papillon." "He'll bring you." "Benji:" "Papillon?" "Tour guide:" "Please!" "Thanks." "Come back into the group." "Please." "Come on." "Sorry." "Are you sure this is where we're supposed to go?" "Yeah, I think it's..." "I think it's just down here." "What's his name again?" "Papillon." "Papillon?" "Yeah." "Okay." "(Electronic music playing)" "Papillon?" "(Scarlett speaking French)" "(Speaking French)" "(Speaking French)" "(Speaking French)" "Yes, what do you want?" "I need to get into the catacombs and someone told me that you could take me." "(Laughing)" "No, sorry." "Do I look like a tour guide to you?" "Do I look like a tourist?" "Okay, why would I want to bring you down there?" "Because we have found a secret tunnel in the catacombs that no one else knows about." "Look." "No." "I know that place." "We would have found it if it was there." "No, you wouldn't have." "Yes, we would." "No, you wouldn't have, because it was designed, years and years ago, to be invisible." "Unless you knew it was there, you would never find it." "Why would that be?" "Because I believe it's filled with treasure." "You know what I mean?" "Treasure, yeah, I know what you mean." "(Laughing)" "It's a joke." "I mean, is she serious?" "I'm 100% serious." "If it's true, me and my friends, can we take half of the treasure?" "You can have all of the treasure." "It's not what I'm looking for." "Half is fine." "Okay." "So you'll take us?" "Yes, I said okay." "Try this." "No, I'm sorry, I'm not going." "No, he's coming." "He's coming." "I'm not coming." "George, come on, please." "I need your help." "You can text me whatever you find down there." "I'm gonna be around..." "No." "You can't." "No cell phones down there." "The ground is too dense." "(Man cheering) We are so close." "I know." "You know there's something there." "Guys, meet my team." "This is zed, our climber." "And this is souxie, the banshee." "Hi." "Ça va?" "Souxie, the banshee." "(Papillon arguing in French)" "Okay." "Okay." "Then we go near LAplage." "Okay." "And then it's a bit tricky." "Papillon:" "There's water to here." "And we're prepared for that?" "We have enough equipment?" "Yeah, we got everything." "Benji:" "Zed, right?" "How do you know papillon?" "Oh, I grew up with him." "He's my friend, you know." "Do you know how he got the scar on his hand?" "Don't talk about that to him." "Souxie, what are the dangers that we're facing when we go down there?" "If you run out of batteries, with no flashlight, you will die." "If you run out of water, if you get hurt." "Zed:" "And there are also dangers like police and bats, rats, claustrophobia, drowning, bugs." "Yeah." "De niro?" "You want to see de niro?" "Yes, yes." "Papillon:" "Don't do it." "Souxie:" "No." "He's bad." "Let me do de niro." "Fuck, man." "Fuck." "Just like that!" "(Laughing)" "(Beat playing)" "(Imitating beat)" "You're up." "Zed: (Singing) Hey,yo,hey,yo..." "Listen to that." "No." "And it's over." "Do it like that." "Three seconds." "You suck." "(All laughing)" "Guys, when we leave the van, we need to be quick, okay?" "Because if the police catch us with all that stuff, we're fucked." "Okay?" "Benji:" "Okay." "George:" "I'll walk you guys down there but then I'm out." "Papillon:" "Quick, quick." "Souxie:" "Go, go, go." "Papillon:" "Okay, souxie." "Okay, make it quick, make it quick." "Okay?" "Papillon:" "Okay, wait." "Papillon:" "Zed?" "Yeah." "(Souxie speaking French) Benji:" "Can we keep going?" "Zed:" "Congratulations." "Okay." "Okay." "Now, we should put our headlamps on." "Let's go." "Okay?" "Can you check if mine is on?" "Where's yours?" "George:" "I'm not coming with you guys." "I told you a bunch of times." "Papillon:" "Okay." "I'm leaving you guys in a second." "Scarlett:" "Just give it a minute." "Papillon:" "Here we are." "This is it." "Where?" "There?" "There." "George:" "That's the hole that you're going into?" "Papillon:" "Yeah." "That's it?" "Souxie:" "It's not a joke." "Okay." "George:" "Wow." "Let's do it." "Benji:" "All right." "Look, before we go down there," "I have installed pin-cams on some of your headlamps." "Hold on." "Camera b, good, check." "All right." "All right, camera c, check." "Let's go." "What's this?" "Good luck." "Scarlett, I'm not..." "I shouldn't have even come this far." "Please, I need you with me." "I'm not." "I'm sorry." "Souxie:" "Okay?" "Are you sure you're not gonna regret this?" "Good luck." "Okay." "Listen, I don't know what you do but you make up your mind now." "Okay?" "He's coming, he's coming." "I'm not going." "(Policeman ordering in French)" "Scarlett:" "George!" "Come on!" "George!" "Zed:" "Watch your head, watch your head!" "Scarlett:" "Quickly!" "Fucking Christ!" "Are you out of your mind?" "(Frantic chattering)" "Papillon:" "Smoke bomb, look out!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Watch out!" "Go back!" "Go, go, go!" "(Smoke bomb detonating) Quiet!" "Papillon:" "You okay?" "(All coughing)" "Let us make sure it's clear, okay?" "Zed, souxie." "George." "You stay!" "You stay!" "Benji:" "George." "What?" "I have a headlamp for you." "Come here." "Okay." "Scarlett:" "Let me just..." "Scarlett, I got it!" "I got it!" "I gotta turn it on." "Hold on." "All right." "Camera d, good, check." "Thank you." "You really don't like caves, do you?" "Is this working?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Thank you, Benji." "What did I say?" "His little brother drowned in a cave when they were young." "Shit." "You didn't know." "It's fine." "All right." "Scarlett:" "George, are you all right?" "(Breathes heavily) I will be." "Yeah." "You never returned my calls after Turkey." "I know." "I just wanted to say that I'm really sorry for leaving you there." "I know." "Hey." "What?" "I'm really glad that you're here." "I don't care." "I'm not here for you, Scarlett." "I agreed to be your translator, that's it." "I know." "I didn't wanna come down here." "But here I am." "I'm sorry." "George!" "Papillon:" "The police will never catch papillon." "Okay, let's go." "George." "I'm coming." "I'm coming." "That's me, the classic "pap."" "Nice." "We go through here." "Follow me, Benji." "Benji:" "Right." "Benji:" "Okay?" "I probably should have worn boots." "Papillon:" "I offered you some." "Fuck." "It gets higher up here." "You'll be fine." "Okay." "How deep do you think we are?" "Souxie:" "It's okay?" "Scarlett:" "Right." "So where are we?" "There." "I make us there." "George?" "You good?" "(Clears throat)" "You got something for your camera to go in water?" "Benji:" "Yeah." "I'm all set." "Yeah, he's got a splash bag." "Okay." "It's going to get deeper." "Rue bezout." "And there's a really cool room in the other side, but..." "Scarlett:" "But you have to swim through it." "We're not going to go." "Not this time." "Maybe another time." "Okay." "This is the end." "Benji:" "You good?" "This place is crazy." "That's hot candles." "There's people in here." "Come on." "(Chanting)" "There is always some weird peoples down here." "Benji:" "You're not kidding." "Shit!" "Papillon:" "Okay." "We go through here." "Really?" "And I suggest you pull your hands up like this so these bones don't cut." "Benji:" "No, no." "We're not going through there." "Yes, it's the only way." "Fuck that, man." "I'm not climbing over bones." "George:" "That's a great tour guide you got." "What did you say?" "If you need a tour guide, you get a tour guide who say," ""look over here, look over there"" "and everything." "But that's not me." "If you want to find your hidden treasure, that's the way." "Wait." "Papillon, look." "That isn't actually the right way." "This one here." "This is a much more direct route." "Sometimes the wrong direction is better." "No." "Nobody uses this corridor." "Why not?" "It's a bad place." "What do you mean, it's a bad place?" "Is it dangerous or..." "Bad like, people who go in this tunnel don't come out." "We're talking about some kind of urban legend or something." "This could save us hours upon hours." "You think because you see something in a book, you know it?" "Just look at the map, here." "Okay, this?" "This is not the catacombs." "This will not tell you anything." "Tell me, which ones are filled with water?" "Which ones have collapsed?" "Which ones are evil?" "You don't need to be yelling." "You don't know!" "We had a friend named LA taupe." "In English,  "LA taupe" c'est" themole."" "He lived down here for years." "He knew every corridor of every system, except this one." "He knew there was something horrible down there." "But eventually, he had to see what it was." "He went inside and nobody has seen him since." "So if you want to take this way, go ahead." "Not with me." "Or me." "It's the best way." "These people have been here before." "We haven't." "If that rock is down here, then it's been down here for 600 years." "I think it can wait a couple more hours." "Benji:" "These are human bones!" "I know." "Benji, nobody wants to do this." "And you're cool with this?" "I'm sorry, Benji, I really am." "Let's go." "Let's just go." "Okay, look at zed." "And use, like him, all your legs and arms because there is rats under..." "Benji:" "Are you fucking serious, man?" "No, no, no..." "First bones, now rats?" "(Zed shouting)" "What the fuck is wrong with you, man?" "(Laughing) I'm just fucking kidding!" "Benji:" "That's fucked up, man!" "Asshole." "Benji:" "I'm right behind you." "Scarlett:" "It's actually not too bad." "Benji:" "Let's do this." "Scarlett:" "Give me that." "Mind your feet." "Scarlett:" "Just keep it slow and steady, yeah?" "Watch your head." "Fuck!" "(Panting)" "Scarlett:" "Are you all right?" "No, no." "I think I'm stuck." "I can't see you." "George:" "Benji!" "Piece of shit bag." "You okay, buddy?" "Okay." "Fuck." "Just move your shoulder down." "No, no, no." "I'm stuck." "Just move back, Benji." "I'm stuck." "Fuck!" "Just calm down." "It's okay." "No, no." "I can't breathe." "No, it's okay." "Benji, you can." "Look, you should go." "Just keep going, please!" "Fuck." "Fuck!" "You have to move back!" "No, just go, God damn it!" "Move back a bit, please." "God!" "Why are they singing?" "Why are they singing this fucking song?" "Just tell them to shut the fuck up!" "You're gonna have to calm down, okay, Benji?" "Fuck!" "Fuck!" "Benji, just calm down, okay?" "Just breathe with me, please." "It's okay." "Scarlett, you gotta get out of the way." "Just get out of the way." "Just get out of the fucking way!" "You are gonna have to move back a tiny bit, please." "I can't move back." "Just go forward!" "Just a tiny bit." "Go forward!" "You have to flatten out the bones." "Benji, calm down." "Fuck!" "Shit!" "I think something bit me." "Something bit me!" "Fuck!" "Benji, just breathe!" "Benji, just listen to my voice." "Okay." "Okay." "Okay." "Just breathe, please." "You need to calm down." "You are hyperventilating, okay?" "You will be all right." "We just need to take it slowly." "(Distant chanting)" "Now, breathe with me." "Just breathe with me, okay?" "Fuck!" "Fuck!" "(Groans)" "Just line up the bones." "You will be all right." "Just keep coming." "Just move them out of the way." "Good, good, good." "Well done." "Keep coming." "And now move forward." "Just inch yourself forward." "Well done." "There we go, keep coming." "Shit!" "Keep going." "Shit!" "George:" "What was that?" "Fuck." "I think it's gonna collapse!" "Go!" "(Tunnel rumbling)" "Grab the fucking camera!" "Grab it!" "Just grab the fucking camera!" "Hurry!" "Keep coming!" "Quickly!" "Fuck!" "(Frantic chattering)" "Scarlett:" "Benji!" "Souxie:" "Is he okay?" "Benji:" "Fuck!" "(Scarlett coughing)" "Fuck." "It's collapsed." "That was so fucking close." "Oh, my God." "Wait." "Fuck." "Scarlett:" "Wait." "Tell me we didn't just go in a circle." "This isn't here." "This is the same tunnel, no?" "Papillon:" "This isn't here." "Believe me." "No, no, no." "Look, I thought you said you knew where we were going!" "Wait." "Listen to me." "Hey, hey, hey, Benji!" "Stop it!" "Listen, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry!" "Benji, I'm sorry!" "Calm down!" "But listen to me." "This doesn't go here." "Okay, calm down." "This is the tunnel." "There is no turns." "There is no turns." "This is straight." "I don't understand." "Benji:" "What the hell do we do now, huh?" "This is all right." "Okay." "Papillon:" "We shouldn't go this way." "Zed:" "Let's go, grab your shit." "Papillon:" "We shouldn't go in there!" "George:" "There's no other option." "Are you all right, Benji?" "Let me help." "Let me help." "Benji:" "Okay." "Souxie:" "Okay." "What the hell is this?" "Great." "Very funny." "So you have never been here before." "No." "(Souxie speaking French)" "I've never been here, okay?" "What the hell is this, then?" "People just tag your name on the wall?" "I swear I've never been here." "I didn't do this, okay?" "Who did it, then?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "For goodness' sake." "You better not be fucking with us." "(Phone ringing)" "George:" "Did you hear that?" "Is that a phone?" "Are there phones down here?" "The phone company used to run lines through here, but they..." "Run lines through here?" "Yeah." "They must have left some." "No." "Fifty years ago, they took everything." "(Phone ringing)" "Go." "This is wrong." "Scarlett!" "Scarlett!" "Barrière d'enfer." "This is the spot I was talking about." "This is where the buildings collapsed into the ground." "Hundreds of people fell to their death right here." "Yes." "And when they sent people to fix it, 50 more disappeared." "How the hell did they get a piano down here?" "Benji:" "Maybe it fell when one of the houses collapsed." "You gotta be kidding." "When I was a kid, we had a piano that looked exactly like this." "Really?" "Danny and I used to play it all the time." "We only knew one song." "MyBonnielies overtheocean." "You remember that song?" "We could never finish it because the a4 key was fucked up." "George..." "This is a trip." "(Notes playing)" "(No sound)" "(Continues to make no sound)" "What's going on?" "I told you." "We shouldn't be here." "We should keep going." "Guys, no."

"Scarlett, how are these torches still lit?" "The philosopher's stone can fuel a lamp for eternity." "Where is it?" "Where's the stone?" ""Brightest light in darkest day." Think about it." "Brightest light." "Yeah." "The sun." "In ancient Egypt, they said that the earth God and the sky goddess were madly in love." "But when they had their first child, the sun, he became so jealous of their affections that he pushed them apart so that they were only able to touch by the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet." "Every morning, the sky goddess gave birth to the sun, and every evening" "she would swallow him back up." "That's it!" "Oh, my God." "It looks so ordinary."

"George:" "No use, papillon?" "No!" "I need the first-aid kit." "I have to clean it." "No, don't touch it!" "Papillon:" "The packs are buried." "Benji:" "What do you mean they're buried?" "They're buried!" "Benji:" "Do we have anything?" "Sorry, I'm sorry." "George:" "Where's our water?" "Our food?" "Do we have any batteries?" "For the lights?" "Yeah, we should start conserving the lights." "Shit!" "What do I do?" "Just keep it up, so that it stops bleeding." "Okay." "Okay." "It's all right." "It's okay." "This might sting." "Just a sting."

"As I am, so are my cells, so are my atoms, so is God." "Basically, as I believe the world to be, so it is." "Benji:" "I'm not following." "As above, so below." "So if they carved a door on the ceiling..." "There has got to be a door on the floor, too." "Yeah." "Someone hand me a rock." "All right." "Wait." "We are in the bottom of the catacombs." "There's nothing below us, Scarlett." "Shit." "If this is the floor then where is all that water going?" "There's a way out." "Souxie:" "Are you okay?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Guys, there's a passage down here." "Come down." "It's okay." "Souxie." "Watch out, Benji." "Can you read that?" "What does it say?" ""Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."" "Papillon:" "What?"
