Dig (2015): Season 1, Episode 10 - Armageddon Protocol - full transcript

Peter races to stop the Order of Moriah's plans of destroying the Temple Mount.

Previously on Dig...

For this prophecy to come true,

- they'd need...
- A red heifer, a high priest.

_

It's undetectable.

_

_

_

Something terrible
is about to happen.



Meet me at the dig site
right now.

Peter, Liat is dirty.

I never told her
the package was a kid.

God damn it, Peter.
Where are you?

You're not gonna believe this.

Over here.

What was so important you
couldn't tell me on the phone?

You should probably
see for yourself.

We're right below
the foundation stone.

So the Dome of the Rock
is up there.

For now, until the Order
of Moriah destroys it all.

Destroys it how?

I wasn't paid
to ask them questions.

They funded my dig.
I took their money.



They hired me to get them
to the Well of Souls,

but I was interested in what lay
2 feet behind that wall.

A passageway
called Warren's shaft.

Sir Charles Warren came
the closest to finding

the treasures 150 years ago.

I was going to pick up
where he left off.

A couple of whacks
with that pick,

I'd be through the wall.

Just waiting for my time.

Much good it would do now.

I led them here,
and now they're going to use it

to destroy it all.

The foundation stone,
the Al Aqsa,

the Dome of the Rock.

Look, I may be
an opportunist...

And an asshole.

Granted.
But I'm not crazy.

If that mosque comes down,

it'll be World War III
up there.

Armageddon,
the end of everything.

_

God damn it, Peter.
Where are you?

I know everything.
He talked.

If what he told me is right,
I think you're in great danger.

Ah, shit.

- Ah, shit. No.
- Hey, hey, hey!

- Hey, hey, hey, whoa.
- No. It's all right. It's okay.

Oh, shit.

No, no, no.

He's my friend, okay?
He's my friend.

Hey, hey, just wait, wait.
One second.

One second.
Just...

Hey.

Hey.

Hey. Hey!

Hey.
What did you tell him?

Gregory, wake up.
What did you tell him?

Gregory! Gre...

Who's Rebecca?

Who is Rebecca?

Who is Rebecca?

He's been identified
by the boyfriend,

so we can do
the autopsy now.

I'm gonna find out
who did this.

Does it matter?

Did Golan know anybody
called Rebecca?

No.

Not that I know.

Rabbi.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

Me too.

There are prophecies that say
beware the blood moon.

A harbinger of the End of Days.
I know.

Tomorrow night
it will be full.

_

_

- Liat?
- _

Liat, I know you can see me.
Look at me, please.

Lynn, I did not want it
to end this way.

Just take off the blindfold.

Please.

Please.

Ah!

Ah!

Ow.

I saw it on the news.

I couldn't believe
it was him.

It's so awful.

He was onto something,

so they killed him.

I thought you were
with him.

No, I was with Margrove.

Margrove, why?

He called.

He found the Well of Souls.

What?

Yeah.

Turns out he was working
for the Order of Moriah

like we thought,
but now he wants out.

He's found out they're gonna
destroy the whole temple mount.

From the Well of Souls?

But that doesn't make
any sense.

I mean, if this whole thing
is about rebuilding the temple,

they can't do that
without the foundation stone.

None of it makes any sense
to me.

Maybe it should
just all end.

All the pain and suffering
in the world just...

let everybody
wipe each other out.

In the name of God.

No.

No, I can't let you
do this, Peter.

We have to figure a way
out of this.

I can't stop it.

I can't stop anything.

How did you get sandstone
on your shirt?

What?

There's sandstone
on your shirt.

Where'd it come from?

I don't know.
The tunnels?

There's no sandstone
in the tunnels.

The whole idea of tunnels
is to bring water to the city.

Sandstone and water
don't work.

"Follow the water."

Both Margrove and Donaldson
said that.

"Follow the water."

Stay here.

Wait, where are you going?

To get a geology lesson.

_

_

_

_

I must have rubbed up
against a wall

somewhere about there.

That's impossible.
That's the...

Right under
the foundation stone.

They broke through
to the Well of Souls.

That's incredible,
but sandstone? No.

The entire temple mount
will collapse.

There's a source
of water there.

There's a pond there,
off tunnel seven.

What's the source
of that water?

Here.
The dam at Beit Zait,

above the city here,

releases water that feeds
these aquifers here.

So if the dam was destroyed,

where would the water go?

Through these same tunnels,
flooding them all.

Half the city would be
under water, thousands of homes.

It would be chaos.

- Jesus.
- Unless...

There are escape routes
beneath the city.

They're connected
to the tunnels.

Yes.
They connect here and here.

A set of large automated
steel doors seal them off.

And if those doors were open,
then the water would...

Would do what?

The protocol has never
been enacted, thank God.

Especially given its name.

"Armageddon Protocol."

Did he buy it?

He should be finding out
about the Armageddon Protocol

right about now.

Let's go get our treasure.

We need to talk.

Okay, let's talk.

Alone.

Josh, I'm sure
you must be nervous,

but I want to assure you
there is nothing to worry about.

Both Faye and I
will be right by your side.

No, you won't.

What are you
talking about?

Your help in getting me
to this point

is very much appreciated,

but just like Moses,
you will not arrive

at the promised land.

What the hell are you
talking about, Josh?

I raised you for 13 years.

I'm the closest thing
you have to a father.

My father is God.

You're no longer needed, Tad.

What?

You served your purpose,

and you'll get your reward
in the kingdom to come.

Now be gone.

I literally made you,
you little shit.

You want to know the real story?
Trust me, you...

I said go.

Go.

And send the tailor
back in.

_

_

_

Hey! Hey!

Stop!

I have put my life on the line
for his little spoiled ass.

And now I am no longer needed?

How dare he?

Maybe it's the jetlag.

It's a test.

A test?

Yes.

God is putting us
through a final test.

What are you talking about?

Something has happened
to the boy.

Mm.
Just like the first Josh.

No matter what we did,
how we followed protocol,

it never took because God
never intended it to take.

Pastor...

Perhaps Satan himself
has entered the boy.

We need to continue on our path
but without him.

Without him?

I raised those boys.
I carried them to term myself.

Don't you see, Faye?

There is no Josh anymore.

But I have devoted
13 years for this.

I am the one
who should sacrifice the cow,

not the boy.

I know what needs
to be done.

You're thinking of your ego,
not of God.

We must get rid
of the demon.

God speaks clearly,
and what God wants now...

Pastor?

I cannot allow you
to stop the prophecy.

Oh, well.

Hey.

Hey!

Hey, stop!

Hey, stop!

How'd you know?

"It's all about the water."

That's what you said when
you were passed out in the cave.

Shit.

Can you defuse it?

I don't know.

I owe you.

- Lynn Monahan.
- Are you okay?

Do you need
medical assistance?

- No, I'm fine.
- Yes, ma'am.

- Ambassador.
- Minister.

What a great day it is.

Just a few last-minute details.
I need a secure line.

Of course. You can use
the phone in my office.

Shit.

It's fail safe.

I could never get them
all done anyway.

What are you doing?
Seriously?

- Liat?
- No, it's me.

- Where are you?
- I'm outside the Consulate.

Listen, I have a gun
under my desk.

You have no idea
what I've just been through.

I can get in there.
If I can sneak in,

- I can get up to Ridell.
- Forget the gun.

You need to get to a member
of the Israeli government

who can enact something called
the Armageddon Protocol.

The what?

They're going to blow up
the dam at Beit Zait,

flood the city
through the tunnels.

Uh, Moshe Krugman,
the Defense Minister,

just walked in with Ridell.

I don't know
whose side he's on though.

Well, get to him
and find out.

Is she gonna do it?

Even if she does, it's not going
to save the Dome of the Rock.

Why?

Because they dug through the
tunnels to the Well of Souls.

It's sandstone.

The water would go
straight in there.

Everything would crumble.

Warren's shaft.

There's a shaft.

Uh, Margrove showed me
this morning.

It's 2 feet behind stone.

If we open it up,

maybe the water
goes down the shaft.

So what are we
waiting for?

The treasures.

It's even more beautiful
than I dreamed of.

Thank you.

I'll be out in a few moments.

Wait for me outside.

Amen.

Amen.

Put the phone down.

Seriously.

What?

I've seen something
on the security camera feed

I think
you should know about.

Hold on.

Grab it.

Come on.

It's right through here.

We have six minutes.

Mr. Krugman,
my name is Lynn Monahan.

You know me.

I'm the legal attach?.
You've met me.

You know I'm not crazy.

There is a bomb about to explode
the dam at Beit Zait.

Either you know
that information,

or I can trust that you
will help save half this city

from being washed away.

I know nothing
about a bomb.

Ambassador Ridell
is in on it.

I need you to pick up
that phone

and engage
Armageddon Protocol.

Get up.
Put down the guns!

- Look, look.
- Put down the guns.

Do as she says.
Do as she says.

No, don't.

Agent Monahan has been suffering
from delusions lately.

She needs medical attention.

Get the sledgehammer.

- Is that the bottom?
- I don't know.

Maybe the shaft
continues below.

I'm going down.

Ah!

It's a false floor.

It goes down deeper.

Throw me down
the sledgehammer.

You can save thousands
of people's lives

if you just make
that one call.

Trust me.

_

_

Don't touch the phone,
Mr. Krugman.

If I'm right and you don't
pick up that phone,

the whole of Temple Mount
will be destroyed.

I will hold you
accountable.

I will make sure
that everyone knows

that you could have
prevented it.

It's your call.

Don't do it.

Why?
If she's right...

She's wrong.

She's delusional.

This is the U.S. Embassy.

This is American soil.

Step away from that phone!

Escort Ambassador Ridell out.

This is ridiculous.

_

_

_

_

Thank you.

The Armageddon Protocol:

the end of their world,

the beginning of ours.

Thank you,
Peter Connelly.

Come on!

Come on!

Hurry!

Come on!

Come on!

Any second now.

Turns out my father
was right all along.

It's all about the water.

Your father?

Did I leave that part out?

Come on.

Jump and take my hand.
Come on.

Ah!

Why isn't it happening?

Something is wrong.

Let's continue
with the cow.

No.

No!

Nothing's happening.

Then I guess it worked.

How many others
do you think are involved?

I don't know.

None.

All of them.

That's the scary part.

You got a lot of work
ahead of you.

Yeah.

Unless you want to beg me
to take my job back.

That's all right.

I'm as done with me here
as you are.

I'm gonna grab some things
from the office.

Yeah.

Don't bother.

He's been dead for hours.

I've been waiting
for you.

Rebecca Donaldson.

I haven't heard my real name
in a very long time.

Right there.

That's what this
was all about?

Punishing the man
who betrayed your father?

Revenge?

Justice.

He took everything from me.

My father, my mother.

You saw what he did
to my brother.

Hating Margrove was the only
thing that kept me alive.

Jesus.

What the hell
happened to you?

When I was 15,
I learned the whole story

about what happened
to my family.

And that day,
Rebecca Donaldson died,

and Emma Wilson was born.

I enrolled in
the University of Pennsylvania,

took all
of Margrove's classes.

It wasn't hard to get
his attention.

Every man has a type.

Can you imagine
what it feels like

to be in the arms
of a man you've hated

your entire life?

Once I got him to trust me,

he told me about the people
that were paying him

to dig where no one
should be digging.

And?

I had to pretend
that I didn't know

about the Order of Moriah

even though I wake up
every night

hearing my father's
crazy rantings about them.

That's it?

'Cause of your nightmares, you'd
allow half the world to die?

No.

The Armageddon Protocol.

That's why me, right?

That's why you chose me.

You needed someone to stop
the Order of Moriah.

Everything went according
to plan,

except for one small thing.

I never counted on
falling in love with you, Peter.

This is our way out.

You and me.

Come with me, Peter.

You think
that's how this ends?

We waltz out of here
into the sunset?

You killed people.

Golan?

He was going to ruin
everything.

I couldn't let him
do that.

And you think I'm going
to let you get away with that?

I'm not going to jail,
Peter.

If you're going to stop me,
there's only one way.

You have a gun.

Here.

I'll do it for you.

Just like your daughter.

You're nothing like
my daughter.

She was honest
and pure.

Don't pretend you don't have
feelings for me, Peter.

That's why
you came here alone.

I know you.

You love me.

Yeah.

If you really knew me,

then you would know

that I came here
to say good-bye.

In two minutes, this place
will be swarming with police.

Don't lie to me,
Peter.

What did you do?

What did you do, Peter?

My job.

Don't walk away
from me.

I waited for you!

Coward!

Fine.
I'll see you in hell, Peter.

Not if I see you first.

It's open.

She didn't go down easy,
but we've got her in custody,

along with Rabbi Lev,
the boy, and his guardian.

Sorry I didn't tell you
she was alive.

- We have a lot to talk about.
- Not tonight.

Please not tonight.

What are you going to do?
You going to go home?

Back to my wife?

Not yet.

You going to stay here?

No.

I was thinking of asking
my boss for a transfer.

Oh.
Anywhere in particular?

Just anywhere far, far away.

Hmm.

Lynn?

Yes?

Thank you.

For what?

For being my friend.

The only one you've got.
