I know what's going on.

Good, I'm glad to hear that.

You just drive.

If I was you, I'd drive to Quincy.

Pick roads where I could go pretty
fast without making anyone look suspicious.

Jesus!

- Seth, wake up!
- What.

Come on, get up!

- What's that smell?
- Come on, we got to get out of here...

Come on!
Come here... here.

Dad!
No, we gotta help Dad!



- Come on!
- No!

Dad!

No, we have to help him!

Dad, Dad!

No... No!

The Gecko brothers are back.

That's howl like it...
Set me free...

What is wrong with you?

This is not who you are.

You know, my entire life,
I have felt like I've owed you something

because you pulled me out
of that fire.

You and me... we're done.

It hurts, I know.

I know.



It's all just part
of your awakening.

I need those.

Part of you must die, Richard.

Let it go.

What is it, baby?

Don't you want me to set
you free?

I didn't want to hurt you.

Oh, please...
you so wanted this.

You wanted it bad.

How about
a little role playing, huh?

Would you like that?

It'll be fun.

I'll be you...

and you... be...

me.

Yummers.

Now you're
getting the hang of it.

The worst is over.

Holy shit.

I'm 20/20.

And it's only the beginning.

It's another dead end!

- What?
- Or the beginning.

- We went in a big circle?
- No, no, no, no, no... the inscription.

It's the beginning of the ancient words.

It's a reference.

To the creation myth in
the Popol Vuh.

Rebirth.

Renewal.

Rebirth.

Renewal, rebirth.

What are you doing...
Don't touch things, in here... Please.

What did you do?

Oh, my...

What the hell did you do?

Okay.

Hey...

Do you see this?

There's stairs-They go up.

Up is good, right?

Better than down.

Yeah, fucking A.

Oh, finally.

Wait... Richie?

He's still alive.

He looks pretty good for
a guy that just got shot.

Oh, son of a bitch.

What are you waiting for, huh?

We're free...
Let's get out of here.

We can't leave without Scott.

I can stay back.

I'll help out.

Get your hands off me, padre.

I'm going to get my brother.

You sure he's still
your brother?

Good luck.

Where is she?

Okay, Richie, look...
I know it's not your fault.

She played you, okay?

Just tell me where she is.

Uh...

Sorry, brother.

Things are
about to get a little weird.

You never told me.

- What's that?
- About mom.

Well, maybe when we find Scott
and we get out of here...

I know what she did.

The night of the accident.

I know about the pills.

How?

This place.

It showed me.

That's why
you were driving so fast.

You were trying to get her
to the hospital.

So they could pump her stomach.

I didn't want you and Scott to know...
I didn't want you to ever know.

No, of course you didn't.

God, you carried this all on
your own.

You don't have to anymore.

We're gonna go find Scott and then we're
gonna make it out of here a family.

Shh, shh, shh, shh.

I heard something.

Oh, Ranger Gonzalez.

I'm glad
to see you're still alive.

Where's Seth?

He found a way out.

He went through a door with
his brother.

- Richie's alive?
- Yes, sir.

Come on...
Let's get out of here.

What are you all still doing
here, anyway?

Your son.

Have you seen him?

Ranger Gonzalez.

- They got him.
- You saw it happen-You saw him bitten?

He tried to bite me.

I'm gonna see for myself.

You stay down here,
you'll get lost forever or worse.

I'm telling you what I saw...
He's gone.

Thank you
for your concern, Ranger Gonzalez.

But we're gonna go find
my brother.

You do what you need to do.

Ah, damn it.

What the hell is going on?

I'm trying to get us to El Rey.

Richard, you just
bashed yourself in your own head.

That other me is kind of
a dick, okay?

And he's not exactly real.

No?

Then how the hell do I know
you are, huh?

Maybe in death, I can finally give you the
peace that I can't seem to give you in life.

Seth, just let me explain.

Please... Just please
listen to me and let me explain.

This is a trick.

No, this whole thing is a trick.

You can say goodbye to the money,
Richard, because I am out.

You got to be kidding me.

No more tricks, Seth Gecko.

But there will be games.

Put that down, Seth,
unless you never want to leave this temple.

Temple?

I stepped out the door and I was in
the parking lot.

You stepped through a door, yes.

But you entered the ahk'abbih.

- The who?
- It's a labyrinth... It's like a maze.

It's just
a little different, although...

Yes, I know what a labyrinth is,
Richard, thank you.

It's like
the hedges in "The Shining."

Except I don't see any goddamn
shrubbery around here.

'Cause it's
a labyrinth of the mind.

It was placed here
by the lords of the night.

And there's only one path,
but it's blocked...

by rompecabezas - puzzles, games.

And the only
way to reach the center is to win.

What's the prize?

Me.

No, thanks.

Look, it's not just a temple,
Seth, it's...

- it's a prison.
- No, no, no, no.

No, this isn't a prison.

This is an asylum.

What was your sentence, huh?

Five years?

Hmm?

Try 500.

Well, what if I say no?

You can't say no.

When you walked through that door,
it closed behind you.

Hey, hey.

If you want to make it out of here,
it has to be through the labyrinth.

Move.

Seth left
before the show started.

Maybe he moved it.

Right.

Awesome... Maybe.

That's it.

That's the bag.

What exactly did she say
to Richie?

Look, I told you.

She said you're greedy.

And that's why she's picking him
instead of you.

Look, I did my part.

You promised
you'd help me find my family.

They are sewing their purpose
in the temple, Scott,

as you're
sewing yours here with me.

- No, no, but you said that you...
- But nothing.

Considering what I've done for you,
I'd say a little gratitude is in order.

You cannot go back to them.

Just accept
that you're different, Scott.

Hey...

Scott.

You're better.

Okay, so,
let me get this straight.

I get through this labyrinth
and then I get to you?

No, not to me.

- To my blood.
- What?

It's inside something
you would understand to be a vault.

A sarcophagus.

When we get it,
she'll be replenished.

And then what...
You're cured?

The hunger cannot be cured.

But I will be free.

Oh, really... To do what?

Take your
little show on the road?

Murder and mayhem from
coast to coast?

That's... that's her big plan?

Seth, we boost the blood, we deliver
the goods and the job is done.

- What job?
- Soon you'll know.

In the labyrinth, the trials are constructed
from the memories of everyone in it.

I don't know... Labyrinth, trials.

This whole thing seems like a long way
to go to keep a showgirl in a cage.

It's a test,
put here by the lords of the night.

Whoever has the purity of mind to withstand
the trials will be deemed worthy.

- Of what?
- No one knows.

In five centuries, it's never
been done.

All right... When do we start?

As soon as I leave.

I can't go with you... The lords
would know that I was there and...

they don't like cheating.

No self-respecting god does.

Perfect.

Well, good news is,
you know the job.

The bad news is,
you got yourself busted doing it.

- Oh, yeah, I wonder why.
- We both know why.

Just run it for me.

The Parker Hotel.

All the fabricated comforts of home
for the well-traveled business executive,

except this one happens
to be a front

for the Houston syndicate's
money laundering operation.

Run by none
other than Big Jim Thompson.

There's a rib joint in
the lobby.

That and the hotel
are how he hides significant cash flow

from illegal enterprises all
over Houston.

Every night, 7:00 sharp,
Big Jim here likes to have a cold one

and stuff his gullet full of
Houston's finest slow-roasted pork.

During that 30-minute window, the first man
makes a delivery up to the counting room

on the third floor.

He sets off a diversion
while the other man disables the security.

As soon as that's finished, the two
men converge onto the penthouse

and start cracking the safe.

That's where the real score is.

$10 million in uncut diamonds.

Good bet that's where the labyrinth
is keeping the blood.

Shouldn't be too much
of a problem with all our new swag.

No, no, no... No dice.

We can't lug that thing
all the way up there, okay?

You got to go native...
Touch and feel.

Hey, same goes for
the arsenal, all right... Keep it simple.

We are at a severe disadvantage
if we don't take these.

Oh, that's right,
it's a house of horrors.

And one of my worst memories,
thanks to you.

I told you not to
take that job in the first place.

- Well, that was a good score.
- With a bad mark.

You only went after that guy 'cause
Big Jim kicked Dad out of Houston.

You made it personal,
and that's why you blew it.

No, I blew it because I didn't have
the right boxman with me.

Well, now you do.

This place can throw whatever it wants
at us and it doesn't matter.

You know why?

'Cause the Gecko brothers
ride again.

You kept them on you?

The safest place I could
think of.

I had to let her do it, Seth.

I was a dead man.

- Is being her slave any better?
- I'm not her slave.

No, then what are you exactly?

I'm your brother.

Okay, this is the drop spot.

My guy's always on time.

There we go.

So that's how it is.

What?

The bodyguard...
He wasn't on the original job.

I did time with that guy.

Son of a bitch kicked
the shit out of me in the yard.

Labyrinth of the mind.

Is that Pritchard?

He wasn't there, either.

Yeah, well, he's here now.

Probably because the labyrinth
knows that I hate him.

All right.

Hold on a second.

This isn't a video game.

There's no reset.

You die and you're dead.

Ah, you clean up nice.

- Eat me.
- Seth Gecko?

Nice night for a walk, Warren.

I'm gonna need that cash.

- Not so fast, Bluto.
- Are you sure you want to do this?

Why don't you go ahead and toss him
the bag while he thinks about it?

You heard him... Toss it.

Chop, chop.

What?

No... No!

No, no, no...

Richie, just get the money.

Just get the money.

Hey...
I just wanted to say thank you.

- For what?
- Helping us find my brother.

Yeah.

You don't believe
he can be saved, do you?

I know what I saw.

But I've been wrong about a lot of
things I saw today.

What do you mean?

I've been tracking a serial killer
who I thought was Richard Gecko.

Richie?

What did he do?

He killed a woman in that motel.

But I think someone
made him do it.

I believe that.

Richie's a tortured soul.

And after all I've seen today, who knows
what kind of torture he's been through.

What?

You see the good in people.

Oh!

It's so bad.

What is that smell?

It smells awful.

What was that?

We're not alone in here, guys.

Oh, God.

Stay close.

Dad.

- Just go...
- Shh, shh, shh, shh.

We got to get out of here...
Go, let's go, let's go.

Wait a minute... - Sex
There's something back there.

- We were just over there.
- Come on, come on.

Come on, get out...

Good God!

Get off me... Get off, get off!

Kate!

No!

Hey... Hey, over here!

Get away from my daughter!

Come on!

Come on...
Run, Kate!

- I'll get her... You get Jacob, okay?
- Got you.

Run, Kate!

Where the hell should we go?

Dad?

Oh, God.

Hello?

Hello?

Dad?

I got you... You're okay.

- Where's my dad?
- We'll find him.

We got to get out of here, okay?

- Okay.
- Come on.

Guy nearly broke
my neck with his bare hands.

I don't know what the hell this is, man...
This...

He was not
that strong in prison... Not at all.

He wasn't a culebra, right?

No... No, he definitely
was not.

- You missed a spot.
- Hey, I couldn't help it.

- Yeah?
- Something came over me... I had to.

- You had to what... Had to, what, feed?
- Yeah.

- You couldn't control yourself, huh?
- No, I couldn't!

What?

Jesus Christ!

- What the hell?
- What?

Your f...

Woah...

I'm Pritchard?

- Shit.
- Yeah, all right, all right!

How the hell did you do that?

I don't know...

but I could feel it in my body.

It's like it was tearing
me apart.

You saving me for dessert?

We were gonna keep
you around for inside information,

but there's been a change
in plans.

You're going to
serve a higher purpose.

You've got two choices.

One...

you stay here and watch that designer suit
rot off your bones or...

you can
help me stop what's coming.

J "J"

Okay... 30 minutes on the clocks.

By the time you disable security and
make your way to the penthouse,

I'll go make the drop
in the counting room.

- Except for one problem.
- What?

Do I look like
the goddamn Chamber of Commerce?

Oh, great, another blast
from the past.

Worse...
The security room is right behind him.

J "J"

What do we do now?

Got a better idea.

What are you doing?

Whoa, hey...
What the hell do you think you're doing?

Tactics, brother, tactics.

What?

I hope you know
what you're doing, brother.

I'd like a word with Big Jim.

Yeah.

Most people wait to sit
until I tell them to.

Well, I'm not most people.

I'm a boxman.

Best one since Ray Gecko.

Now, there's a name that
I haven't thought about in a long time.

That's probably because in my business,
I make it a point to forget the losers.

Ah, well,
you're gonna remember me.

I've got your next big score.

You ever been to Brazil?

Excellent food...
Even better women.

The fact is, they've got some of the
most beautiful, beautiful women

on the planet down there.

But did you know...

that some of those
women aren't really women at all?

The fact is...

Brazil is home to one of the largest
populations of transsexuals in the world.

They got... they got so
many, they even got a tour bus,

a special tour bus in Rio and it stops at
this one particular street corner

and there's women all over
the place and everybody in the tour bus

looks out at them and then places bets on
which ones are actually women,

which ones are actually men.

And then when all the bets are placed,
these women lift their skirts

and they show us their business.

I hear they got nice beaches, too.

I have never lost a single bet.

You know why?

Come here.

That is because I know that just because
you might see two big jugs up here...

that don't mean that
there ain't a pork sword down below

just waiting to take you
for a ride.

Now, you tell me, young man,

why exactly should I gamble
on what you got under your suit?

Because if I was working for you
tonight, I would have been smart enough

to check a thiefs bag for a hidden
compartment.

And if Lord Humongous
had done his job correctly,

you wouldn't be in danger of
a sex change yourself.

Boy, you got
some cajones, don't you?

I like that.

- Boss.
- What?

No, don't worry about it...
it's Pritchard.

He'll make his delivery.

I got some
business to attend to.

Meet me upstairs in the penthouse
in five minutes.

We'll talk it out.

So, Vance,
you have anything else on me?

Just get the hell out of Dale, I don't care
what the hell you do.

- Sir.
- You're being robbed.

- You're kidding me.
- No.

Move your ass...
Time's running out.

I forgot to tell you,
I got some girls.

Damn it.

How do I get out of here?

You want your supper?

Then sit down
and do what you're told.

You know the drill.

It ain't gonna
put itself together.

- Oh, so that's
the game we're playing, huh?

Shit!

Shit... come on.

There...

Your colt 1911 pistol
fully assembled.

- Now open the door.
- Too slow... Do it again.

Big Jim is asking for you.

You have no idea
what I live with day in, day out.

The things I got to do for you
and your brother.

- The least you can do is clean my guns.
- Clean my guns, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I heard it before.

Not fast enough.

Can you do it faster?

I can't hear you.

- I can do it faster.
- Good.

'Cause if you don't,
I'm gonna take this bottle

and I'm gonna bust it over
your melon head.

You think
you're such a king shit.

You're nothing but a wise-ass
little prick.

You're a bitch.

You and that retard brother of yours
aren't gonna amount to squat.

Irish twins.

Born a year apart because your miserable mick
mother wasn't allowed to use birth control.

But, damn, he couldn't wait

to get you out of her belly.

Yeah, couldn't wait to get away
from you, either.

What did you say to me?

I said...

she couldn't wait to get away from her
drunk, pathetic excuse for a husband.

You got a mouth on you.

You know whose mouth it is?

Your mother's.

Oh...

the things she
could do with that mouth.

Well, guess what.

She couldn't stand
the sight of you.

She got one
look at you boys and she ran.

Now do it again.

That's got to be faster.

You really think
you can save Richard?

Well, you can't.

Your mother knew what he was
just like I know.

He was a bad seed.

What's that smell?

Lighter fluid.

Same thing you smelled
on your brother that night.

No... Richie
saved me from that fire.

Seth, wake up!

Right after he set it.

No!

You're a liar.

I was a lot of things, Seth...

but liar...

wasn't one of 'em.

Richie betrayed his own blood.

Seth, wake up!

Come on,
we got to get out of here!

What's that smell?

You really gonna
let him get away with that?

Yeah?

It's for you.

A for effort, boxman.

But I know
a Gecko when I see one.

And sooner or later, we all dance
with the reaper.

Tactics.

All right, come on, come on.

All right.

What are we doing in here?

We need to go back.

No, no... Hey, don't worry,
don't worry, don't worry.

This is the most
sacred room in the temple.

Chances are if we wait here long enough,
they'll come to us.

Okay?

- We'll be safe here.
- Okay.

Wow.

It really is incredible to have lectured
about a place for so many years

and finally be
standing in the middle of it.

Well, I'm glad it's been such
a thrill for you.

This place really freaks me out.

Oh, well, it shouldn't.

Human sacrifice has really
gotten a bad rap.

It's not all about the blood.

It's a simple exchange, really.

A pact with the gods.

What are you talking about?

Where's your sword?

They knocked it out of my hand.

How the hell are we gonna get out
of here... You don't have a weapon.

- Apparently, I can take a bite.
- Assuming that's all they want to do is bite.

I got a knife.

Where the hell's my knife?

- Tanner took it.
- Why the hell would he take your knife?

These people believe that with
enough sacrifice...

the vision serpent would
grant them ascension to the next realm.

And it all happens right here.

He's obsessed.

Where's the knife...
Did you take it?

It belongs
to the lords of the night.

He has been the entire time,
since the beginning.

You know,
when we were in that room?

It was-it was like he was getting his kicks
out of seeing my Katey up on that altar.

He took her.

He wanted to separate us.

Why?

I'd all but given up on
finding this place.

But then Ranger Gonzalez
called me and he sent me on my path.

And along the way I met
a new friend...

and he told me what I should do.

Buenos dias, professor.

We got to get the hell
out of here.

I've already lost one kid...
I'm not gonna lose another,

especially to that psychopath.

What the hell was that?

Scott?

No!

We've all
got our part to play.

Are you ready
to fulfill your destiny, Kate?

Fuck you!

Give it time...

you'll come around.

No-don't!

Seth Gecko.

Fancy seeing you here.

Go on and git...
I'll deal with this one.

What, are you gonna do
something bad, Seth?

Oh, go on and
drop the money on the table.

Pete, I think we got off on the
wrong foot... What do you say?

Damn right.

- Now take a step back.
- Okay.

How's it feel
to be on this end of the muzzle?

Well, it isn't the first time,
probably won't be the last.

It's a shame I got to blow that confidence
away on that pretty suit of yours.

End of the road for los hermanos Gecko.

Be cool, Seth...
You be cool.

- We've got a problem.
- What?

- Give me the code.
- Only Pete knows it.

Okay, okay, okay.

What's the price
of a nice bottle of hooch?

What's the price of a nice
bottle of hooch?

Fourty-si... four...

What the hell was that?

Get downstairs...
I'll cover Big Jim.

Move!

The hell happened?

Not bad for a Gecko.

Where have you been?

Here.

Waiting...
Just like you.

You think they'll succeed?

Richard's soul is pure.

I'm sure of it.

Richard.

He's quite a find.

Do you trust him?

Richard thinks I'm
in love with him.

He would go to
the end of the world for me.

Who wouldn't?

I did.

I've had a little trouble
securing the money.

What?

That's unacceptable.

I completely agree.

So you don't know where it is?

Why would I?

My job was to
take care of Richard.

And you were supposed to take
care of the money.

Well, I cannot find it.

I think our trickster brothers are
trying to pull a fast one.

Don't worry, mi diosa.

When the Geckos emerge from
the labyrinth,

we'll find out
exactly where everyone stands.
