Millennium (1996–1999): Season 2, Episode 8 - The Hand of Saint Sebastian - full transcript
Frank and Watts travel to Germany where they seek a legendary holy relic.
SHH!
IT HAS COME TO OUR ATTENTION...
THAT YOU HAVE BEEN ENGAGED
IN AN INDEPENDENT PROJECT.
IT BEGAN... AS CURIOSITY.
IT'S BECOME MUCH MORE.
NOW IT'S A DISTRACTION.
AND THAT WHICH DISTRACTS
SHOULD BE EXCISED.
MR. WATTS, THE
UNINITIATED PERCEIVE TIME...
WITH NO APPRECIATION
OF THE BEGINNING...
AND NO UNDERSTANDING OF THE END.
TO THEM, TIME IS AN
INFINITE COMMODITY.
WE KNOW BETTER.
AND WE WILL NOT
WASTE A SECOND OF IT.
THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
WELL, THAT'S WHAT I INTEND
TO FIND OUT, SIR... WHO WE ARE.
THAT QUESTION WAS ANSWERED
WHEN YOU WERE ACCEPTED.
THE ANSWER ONLY LEADS
TO MORE QUESTIONS.
WHAT YOU WANT TO
CONFIRM, THEY WILL DENY.
WHAT YOU WANT TO
FIND, THEY WILL HIDE.
YOU ARE ON A PATH
THAT HAS NO BEGINNING,
NO MIDDLE AND NO END.
BECAUSE IT IS A MATTER OF FAITH.
MAYBE THAT IS WHAT
YOU NEED TO FIND.
THIS IS ALL ABOUT THE SCIENCE.
THEN YOU'LL NEVER
FIND IT. I'M CLOSE.
I JUST NEED A LITTLE MORE TIME.
PETER, WE DON'T WANT
TO LOSE YOU OVER THIS.
IS THAT A THREAT, SIR?
A CAUTION.
BECAUSE IF WE FOUND
OUT, THEY ALREADY KNOW.
PETER. COME ON IN.
- I DIDN'T GET YOUR PAGE.
- I DIDN'T SEND ONE.
- ANYTHING WRONG?
- WHAT I'M ABOUT TO ASK YOU IS...
UNAUTHORIZED BY
THE MILLENNIUM GROUP.
IF YOU TELL ME TO TAKE A FLYING
LEAP, I'LL COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND.
IT WON'T AFFECT OUR PROFESSIONAL
RELATIONSHIP IN ANY WAY.
AND OUR PERSONAL?
I NEED YOUR HELP, YOUR GIFT.
AND I CAN'T TELL YOU WHY.
BUT I CAN TELL YOU IT
MIGHT BE DANGEROUS.
YOU'RE ASKING
FOR A LEAP OF FAITH.
MORE THAN YOU KNOW.
THIS IS OBVIOUSLY UNEXPECTED.
I SPOKE TO DR. SCHLOSSBURG ON
THE PHONE JUST THREE DAYS AGO.
FROM THE MASSIVE BLOOD LOSS,
I'D SAY THE ATTACK WAS
VIOLENT AND PROTRACTED.
LOOKING AROUND AT THIS
EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT...
THE ONLY MOTIVE THAT WE
CAN RULE OUT IS ROBBERY.
COME.
MY ADVICE, BEFORE
WE GO ANY FURTHER,
IS THAT WE TALK TO
THE GERMAN POLICE.
HELP ME. YOU ASK ME TO HELP YOU?
MAN IS EVIL, CAPABLE OF
NOTHING BUT DESTRUCTION.
YOU... BLOODY BASTARD.
ROEDECKER, THIS IS WATTS. I NEED YOU TO
CONNECT WITH THE NETWORKING SYSTEM...
AT HAMBURG UNIVERSITY
SCIENCE DEPARTMENT.
THE TERMINAL IN QUESTION IS
LOCATED IN BREMERHAVEN, GERMANY.
F.T.P. 204.48.18.31.
- I HAVE OFFICE HOURS.
- THE FILES ARE PROTECTED
BY A PASSWORD SYSTEM.
HOW QUICKLY CAN YOU BYPASS
SECURITY AND ACCESS THE FILES?
I BELIEVE THE WORK YOU'RE
REQUESTING IS ILLEGAL...
UNDER INTERNATIONAL,
FEDERAL AND STATE STATUTES.
ARE YOU SAYING
THAT YOU WON'T DO IT?
WHAT I'M SAYING IS "GOLDEN
TIME." WHAT FILES YOU LOOKING FOR?
JUST GET IN, THEN CONTACT ME. YOU
CAN REACH ME ANYTIME ON MY CELL.
OH, MY GOD. DON'T TELL ME WE HAD THIS
CONVERSATION ON AN UNSECURED LINE,
BECAUSE IN A COURT OF LAW,
THIS COULD BE CONSTRUED...
AS A DE FACTO ADMISSION OF
GUILT. WHAT CONVERSATION?
GOTCHA.
WINK, WINK. NUDGE,
NUDGE. SAY NO MORE.
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
YOU'RE ALSO POLICE?
LET ME SEE YOUR STINKIN' BADGES.
I'M GONNA REACH
FOR MY IDENTIFICATION.
I KNOW HOW THIS APPEARS, BUT
DR. SCHLOSSBURG WAS WORKING WITH OUR GROUP.
WE ARE CONSULTANTS TO LAW
ENFORCEMENT IN THE UNITED STATES.
WE ENTERED THIS CRIME
SCENE IN THAT CAPACITY.
UH-HUH. WHAT IS THIS?
I DON'T KNOW THIS GROUP.
THAT'S RIGHT... TAKE US IN.
THEN WE'LL BE ABLE
TO EXPLAIN EVERYTHING.
YOU SAID DR. SCHLOSSBURG WAS INVOLVED
WITH THE GROUP. WHAT WAS HE WORKING ON?
AN ANSWER.
TO WHAT?
WHO WE ARE.
MY APOLOGIES,
MR. WATTS, MR. BLACK.
THE DIREKTOR DER
BEREITSCHAFTSPOLIZEI INFORMS ME...
THAT THE MILLENNIUM GROUP SHALL
HAVE OUR FULLEST COOPERATION.
TO FULFILL HIS REQUEST, I
BRING TO YOU DETECTIVE HEIM.
WE STAKE OUT PERP WHEN
YOU TWO WERE BUSTED.
OKAY.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG WORKED AT HAMBURG
UNIVERSITY'S SCIENCE DEPARTMENT.
BUT YOU WOULD KNOW
BECAUSE YOU TAIL HIM, CORRECT?
- WE KNOW BECAUSE
WE WORKED WITH HIM.
- OH, YEAH.
AND THIS IS HIM AFTER THE
HEMORRHOID GOT THROUGH WITH HIM.
THE PERP CAPPED THE MARK AT AROUND
MAYBE MIDNIGHT, THREE DAYS AGO.
I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND ME SAYING SO, BUT
YOU HAVE A VERY COLORFUL VOCABULARY.
DANKE SCHÖN. THANK YOU.
I LEARN MUCH ABOUT GOOD DETECTIVE
WORK FROM AMERICAN TV POLICE SHOWS.
SIPOWICZ. KOJAK. HUNTER.
- TONY SCALI.
- WHO?
THE COMMISH.
- HAVE YOU ESTABLISHED
A MOTIVE FOR THE MURDER?
- ROBBERY.
THE DOCTOR SURPRISED
SOME FREAKIN' DIRTBAG.
THE ATTACKER
ESCAPED IN THIS WINDOW.
AND FROM THE BLOOD
TRAIL, WE DETECT AN INJURY.
THE DOCTOR MAYBE KICKED
HIM IN THE... IN THE LABONZA.
CAN WE EXAMINE THE BODY?
WHO LOVES YA, BABY?
COME ON.
JA.
JOSEF HEIM HERE.
UH-HUH.
OH, JA.
GUT. DANKE.
IT SEEMS A MONGOLIAN
CLUSTER FLOCK HAS APPEARED.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG'S BODY IS GONE.
IT'S BEEN RELEASED.
- IT'S BEEN...
- CREMATED.
SORRY ABOUT THAT.
WHEN YOU HAVE
QUESTION, TELEPHONE.
YEAH.
CATCH YOU LATER.
WHAT'S THIS?
IF WE FOUND OUT,
THEY ALREADY KNOW.
DO YOU HAVE IDEA WHO
EXPLODES THE AUTO?
NO. I ASSUME IT WAS SOMEONE
CONNECTED WITH DR. SCHLOSSBURG.
WHEN YOU FIND OUT WHAT KIND
OF DEVICE WAS USED ON THE CAR,
YOU MIGHT HAVE A
LITTLE MORE INFORMATION.
WHEN CAN I EXPECT
YOUR DEPARTURE?
WELL, THE VISA'S FOR SIX MONTHS.
PLEASE HURRY. I SNIFF AT
YOU TWO AND I SMELL TROUBLE.
DID YOU TELL THEM ANYTHING?
DON'T HAVE ANYTHING
TO TELL THEM.
I THINK THEY LIED TO US
ABOUT THE CIRCUMSTANCES...
SURROUNDING SCHLOSSBURG'S DEATH.
I DON'T THINK WE CAN TRUST
THEM. CAN I TRUST YOU?
I GOT ON A PLANE TO GERMANY
JUST BECAUSE YOU ASKED ME TO.
- I EXPECT THE SAME TRUST
FROM YOU.
- YEAH.
TELL ME WHAT'S GOING
ON BEFORE I WALK.
NOT HERE.
THERE ARE CERTAIN
THINGS I CAN'T TELL YOU.
THERE ARE SECRETS TO
MILLENNIUM THAT HAVE TO BE EARNED.
THERE ARE TRUTHS THAT YOU WOULDN'T
UNDERSTAND EVEN IF I ATTEMPTED TO EXPLAIN.
DON'T TELL ME. YOU
TOOK A BLOOD OATH.
NO LESS THAN HAVING
MY BREAST TORN OPEN...
AND MY HEART AND ORGANS
THROWN OVER MY LEFT SHOULDER...
AND CARRIED IN THE
VALLEY OF JEHOSHAPHAT.
THE DECAYING BODY IN THE LAB...
ISN'T THE ONLY
REASON WE'RE HERE.
THAT'S PART OF IT, BUT I'M HOPING THAT
THE BODY LEADS TO A GREATER DISCOVERY.
HOW LONG AGO DO YOU
THINK THAT BODY WAS BURIED?
IT'S VERY WELL-PRESERVED.
JUST AT A CURSORY GLANCE,
I'D SAY 50, 75 YEARS AT THE MOST.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG HAS PLACED
THAT BODY AT A THOUSAND YEARS OLD.
IT'S A BOG MUMMY. THE
BODY IS SO WELL-PRESERVED...
BECAUSE OF A POLYSACCHARIDE CALLED
SPHAGNUM THAT'S FOUND IN THE PEAT MOSS.
THEY'VE FOUND BODIES
AT 2,000 YEARS OLD.
BODIES THAT GO BACK TO THE
BEGINNING OF CHRISTIANITY.
BACK TO THE BEGINNING
OF THE MILLENNIUM GROUP.
THAT WOULD BE OF GREAT INTEREST
TO ARCHAEOLOGISTS, HISTORIANS.
WHAT'S THE INTEREST TO YOU?
WHY WOULD ANYBODY WANNA
KILL TO STOP THIS DISCOVERY?
THERE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THOSE WHO'VE
OPPOSED THE GROUP'S METHODS AND PHILOSOPHY.
BUT THOSE ARE THE
SNAKES IN THE OPEN.
IT'S THE SNAKE IN THE
GRASS THAT CAUSES CONCERN.
WE'RE BEING FOLLOWED.
I THINK TAYLOR WOULD LOVE THIS.
MM-HMM.
THEY'RE GOOD. THEY KNEW WE KNEW.
THOSE ARE JUST THE
ONES WE SPOTTED. DANKE.
POLICE SAID YOU LEFT THE
CRIME SCENE AN HOUR AGO.
MY GERMAN WASN'T GOOD
ENOUGH TO GET ANYTHING
MORE OUT OF THEM. WHERE
THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?
ANDREWS, WHAT
ARE YOU DOING HERE?
THE GROUP ASKED ME TO CONDUCT
A WORKSHOP ON KINESIC INTERVIEW...
AND INTERROGATION TECHNIQUES
AT THE POLICE ACADEMY IN BREMEN.
AS SOON AS I HEARD WHAT HAPPENED, I
CAME AS FAST AS I COULD. YOU GUYS OKAY?
WELL, IT'S BEEN A LONG
DAY, BUT WE'RE FINE.
WELL, I KNOW YOU'RE NOT ON
VACATION. YOU MUST BE ON A CASE.
WHY DON'T YOU GIVE ME THE
CASE FILES? I'LL DO SOME LEGWORK.
IT'S NOT NECESSARY,
REALLY. IT'S UNDER CONTROL.
IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'M BEAT.
I'M GONNA GO UP TO MY ROOM.
GOOD NIGHT. GOOD NIGHT.
- THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
- THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
YOU NEED ANYTHING, FRANK?
I'M JUST ALONG FOR THE RIDE.
SOMETIMES WHEN A CAR CRASHES,
IT'S THE DRIVER THAT'S KILLED.
SOMETIMES IT'S THE PASSENGER.
BE CAREFUL.
GOOD NIGHT.
YEAH. IT'S HACKER MAN.
UH, I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS
LITTLE PROBLEM OF YOURS, MR. W.
- GO AHEAD.
- DID A BACKGROUND CHECK
ON HERR DOCTOR.
GOT HIS IMPORTANT DATES, SIGNIFICANT
NUMBERS, NAMES OF HIS RELATIVES.
I'VE ALREADY TRIED A DOZEN
ALGORITHMIC COMBINATIONS.
- SO FAR, NOT EVEN A NIBBLE.
- THIS IS TIME-SENSITIVE
MATERIAL.
PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO SHUT US DOWN. I
NEED TO GET THROUGH AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
I'VE DONE A LITTLE
RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET.
OUR MAN HAS BEEN A
NAUGHTY LITTLE DOCTOR.
FROM HIS TERMINAL, HE HAS LOGGED
HUNDREDS OF HITS ON ADULT VIDEO WEB SITES,
ONLINE SEX CHAT, YOU NAME IT.
ALL AMERICAN-MADE.
HE PROBABLY PREFERS THE PRODUCTION
VALUE AND GALAXY OF STARS AVAILABLE...
TO SATIATE HIS, UH,
UNIQUE PERVERSITY.
- GET TO THE POINT, HACKER MAN.
- A GUY...
WHO USES HIS
WORKSTATION FOR PORN...
WOULD MOST LIKELY HAVE OTHER
SALACIOUS MATERIAL FOR USE...
ON HAND, IF YOU GET MY DRIFT.
IT'S A LONG SHOT, BUT MAYBE
THAT'S THE KEY TO HIS PASSWORD.
- SUICIDE HOTLINE.
- I FOUND HIS STASH.
MM. ANYTHING JUICY?
A COUPLE OF THE MAGAZINES
APPEAR TO BE OLDER,
WITH DOG-EARED PAGES.
PERSONAL FAVORITES, I PRESUME.
SOME OF THESE STARS HAVE
ATTAINED ONE-NAME STATUS.
KIND OF LIKE, UH, MADONNA
OR CHER IN THE MAINSTREAM.
TEN-TO-ONE, HE USED A
NAME FOR THE PASSWORD.
I'M TRYING GINGER.
MM, ENTHUSIASTIC.
TRACY.
JAILBAIT.
- SEKA.
- WHOA! BLAST FROM THE PAST.
HERE'S ONE.
HE'S A MEMBER OF HER FAN CLUB.
- CHRISTY.
- OH, YEAH, SHE'S HOT.
AN ULTRA BABE-A-LICIOUS.
OR SO I'VE BEEN TOLD.
I'M IN.
AH, THAT WAS GOOD FOR
ME. WAS IT GOOD FOR YOU?
DR. SCHLOSSBURG?
JA?
YOU WERE THIS CLOSE TO
HAVING AN ADDITIONAL RECTUM.
I HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE
WE'RE BEING MONITORED.
IS THAT WHY YOU HAD ME MEET YOU OUTSIDE
INSTEAD OF SOMEPLACE WARM AND LIGHT?
THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE SMELL
OF URINE? WATTS IS MISSING.
I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM ALL DAY. I
TRIED TO PAGE HIM. NO RESPONSE.
I HAVE NEVER KNOWN HIM
NOT TO ANSWER A PAGE.
HE'S BEEN BEHAVING IN
AN UNCHARACTERISTIC WAY.
I GOTTA BE HONEST
WITH YOU, FRANK.
THE GROUP BROUGHT ME
OVER HERE TO BRING HIM IN.
HE'S BEEN ACTING
TOTALLY ON HIS OWN,
UNDER THE AUSPICES OF MILLENNIUM WITHOUT
AUTHORIZATION, WITHOUT CONSULTATION.
AND HE'S BROUGHT YOU INTO THIS.
HE'S JEOPARDIZING YOUR
CANDIDACY. WE GOTTA HELP HIM.
WHAT DO YOU WANT
ME TO DO? FIND HIM.
HE OBVIOUSLY TRUSTS YOU.
DETERMINE HIS OBJECTIVES
AND CONTACT ME.
I'M AT THIS NUMBER HERE.
AT THAT POINT, WE CAN DECIDE TO
GET HIM THROUGH IT OR GET HIM OUT.
YOU'VE ALREADY HAD ONE
ATTEMPT ON YOUR LIVES.
WHATEVER HE'S DOING
PUTS US ALL IN DANGER.
THEY'RE MAINTAINING
SURVEILLANCE OUT FRONT.
YEAH, I NOTICED THAT. I
FOUND ANOTHER WAY IN.
YOU'VE BEEN HERE ALL THIS TIME?
YOU MADE IT INTO THE SYSTEM. DID
YOU FIND WHAT YOU WERE LOOKING FOR?
- NO.
- MAYBE IT DOESN'T EXIST.
A THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
WHEN THIS MAN WAS ALIVE,
OTTO III, EMPEROR OF
THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE,
DUG UP CHARLEMAGNE'S
BONES FOR INSPIRATION...
IN THE PLANNING OF A REFORMATION
OF RELIGIOUS FAITH ACROSS EUROPE.
WHAT HE SAW IN THOSE BONES
GAVE RISE TO THE PERSECUTION,
TORTURE, DEATH OF THOUSANDS.
AT THE SAME TIME, MEMBERS OF
THE ORDER OF KNIGHTS CHRONICLERS,
WHOSE WARNINGS ABOUT THE UPCOMING
MILLENNIUM CAME INTO CONFLICT...
WITH THE NEW ORDER OF
THE EMPIRE, BECAME HUNTED.
AND THEY WERE
FORCED UNDERGROUND.
THE KNIGHTS HAD IN THEIR
POSSESSION A HOLY RELIC.
THE HAND OF SAINT SEBASTIAN.
SEBASTIAN WAS ORDERED
SHOT TO DEATH WITH ARROWS,
BUT HE MIRACULOUSLY SURVIVED.
THE BOUNTY FOR THE RETURN
OF THE HAND WAS SO LUCRATIVE...
THAT MEMBER TURNED
AGAINST MEMBER.
THE GROUP WAS ALMOST DESTROYED.
SURVIVORS DISPERSED
ALL OVER THE WORLD.
AND THE HAND OF ST.
SEBASTIAN DISAPPEARED.
LEGEND HAS IT THAT WHOEVER
HAS POSSESSION OF THE HAND...
HAS THE KNOWLEDGE TO OVERCOME
THE EVILS OF THE MILLENNIUM.
THAT'S A GREAT STORY,
BUT YOU CAN'T BELIEVE...
THAT A MUMMIFIED HAND, EVEN IF IT'S
A HOLY RELIC, CAN TELL US ANYTHING.
THE DEAD CAN'T SPEAK.
THEY TALK TO YOU, FRANK.
IT'S YOUR GIFT. I'VE SEEN IT.
OTTO III SAW EVIL IN THE
BONES OF CHARLEMAGNE.
I WANNA FIND THE
GOOD, THE FAITH.
WHEN I FIRST BECAME AWARE OF THIS PROJECT,
I DIDN'T KNOW WHY I WAS INTERESTED.
- IT WAS SO...
- UNLIKE YOU?
BUT WHEN I LOOK AT HIM, THIS ANONYMOUS
MAN FROM A THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
THEN I KNOW WHY.
THERE IS NO FUTURE
WITHOUT A PAST.
JOHN SCHLOSSBURG
CALLED ME THREE DAYS AGO...
AND TOLD ME HE HAD FOUND
THE LOCATION OF "THE CIRCLE"...
A PRESERVED BURIAL SITE OF THE
ORDER OF KNIGHTS CHRONICLERS.
I HAVE SEARCHED EVERY
SCRAP OF INFORMATION HERE.
MAYBE IN A THOUSAND YEARS,
SOMEONE WILL FIND IT AGAIN.
COME PLAY WITH
ME. COME ON, LOVER.
ROEDECKER SAYS SCHLOSSBURG WAS
OBSESSED WITH THESE ONLINE SEX CHATS.
LAST NIGHT. LAST NIGHT?
THE POLICE SAID HE'S
BEEN DEAD FOR THREE DAYS.
YOU'RE ALWAYS JUST RIGHT, DOC.
LAST NIGHT AND EVERY NIGHT.
SCHLOSSBURG'S STILL ALIVE.
THEY'RE KEEPING HIM HERE
IN PROTECTIVE CUSTODY.
THERE'S A SHIFT CHANGE.
HI.
EXCUSE ME. DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?
I'M LOOKING FOR RADIOLOGY. I MUST
HAVE TAKEN A WRONG TURN OR SOMETHING.
SIGN. THE SIGN.
OH, IF I COULD READ THAT, I
WOULDN'T HAVE TO ASK, WOULD I?
COULD YOU HELP ME FIND IT,
PLEASE? COULD YOU SHOW ME?
PLEASE, IT'LL ONLY TAKE
A SECOND. JA, JA. OKAY.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG?
THERE WAS ANOTHER PERSON.
HE INTRODUCED HIMSELF
AS PETER WATTS...
BEFORE HE ATTACKED ME.
DID HE ASK YOU ANYTHING
BEFORE THE ATTACK?
NO. NOTHING.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG, DID YOU
FIND THE LOCATION OF THE CIRCLE?
NOTHING MAKES ANY SENSE.
UNTIL TODAY, I NEVER
MET DR. SCHLOSSBURG.
SOMEONE USING MY
NAME ATTACKED HIM.
WHY LET HIM LIVE?
THEN THEY MAKE AN ATTEMPT
ON OUR LIVES THAT FAILS.
MAYBE THE PLAN
WAS MEANT TO FAIL.
SO FAR EVERY MOVE WE'VE MADE HAS BEEN
IN REACTION TO EVENTS OUT OF OUR CONTROL.
UNTIL NOW, SOMEONE'S
BEEN SETTING US UP.
I BELIEVE WE'LL FIND
OUT WHO'S RESPONSIBLE
WHEN WE FIND THE
LOCATION OF THE BURIAL SITE.
SOMEHOW, EVERYTHING'S
TIED IN TO THIS BODY.
WHAT IF THE LEGEND'S TRUE?
THE KNOWLEDGE TO FIGHT THE EVILS
OF THE MILLENNIUM ARE OUT THERE.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
HERE TO FIND OUT.
WE'RE CLOSE.
PETER!
PETER!
WAIT! WAIT! NO, NO. GO SLOW.
GO SLOW. GIMME YOUR HAND.
COME ON.
LET'S GO.
WE NEED THE SHOVEL.
HERE. HOLD IT.
IT'S HOOKED ON SOMETHING. PULL!
WHAT THE HELL?
LET'S GO.
THE HAND OF ST. SEBASTIAN.
WOW.
THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
PETER WATTS,
YOU ARE UNDER ARREST FOR
THE MURDER OF DR. SCHLOSSBURG.
YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
CUFF HIM. THEY MUST HAVE
KILLED HIM AFTER I LEFT.
THEN THEY WANTED
YOU TO FIND HIM.
THE BODY. FRANK,
TAKE CARE OF THE BODY.
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!
PETER WATTS WAS AN ASSISTANT
DIRECTOR AT THE F.B.I. FOR 10 YEARS.
HE LED THE INTERNATIONAL TASK FORCE
ON CRIME FOR THREE OF THOSE YEARS.
HE'S A SENIOR MEMBER
OF THE MILLENNIUM GROUP.
AND I DON'T CARE WHAT EVIDENCE YOU
THINK YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE THE WRONG MAN!
MISS ANDREWS, DR. SCHLOSSBURG
IDENTIFIED MR. WATTS AS HIS ATTACKER...
PRIOR TO BEING MURDERED.
WE PLACE HIM AT THE HOSPITAL
VIA VIDEO SURVEILLANCE...
BEFORE THE CRIME.
TAKE CARE OF
THIS. I WANT HIM OUT.
YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO
APPRISE ME OF THE SITUATION.
WE WERE THEN TO
DECIDE A CAUSE OF ACTION.
NOW HE'S IN DEEP AND SO ARE YOU.
THEY SAY YOU'RE EXCAVATING
A BODY. WHERE IS IT?
WE'RE GETTING VERY CLOSE TO
FINDING OUT WHO'S BEHIND ALL THIS.
I WANT TO KNOW
EVERYTHING, FRANK.
THERE'S A PUBLIC STORAGE BUILDING
NEAR THE WATERFRONT ON RASTEDE.
MEET ME THERE TONIGHT,
IN A COUPLE HOURS.
NO MORE GAMES, FRANK.
NO MORE GAMES.
HELLO. ROEDECKER.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO FIND OUT WHO
ACCESSED SCHLOSSBURG'S ACCOUNT...
TO GO ONLINE TWO NIGHTS AGO?
I CAN MAYBE GET YOU THE
CHARGE ACCOUNT OF THE USER.
I CAN DEFINITELY GET THE PHONE
NUMBER WHERE THEY CONNECTED.
ESPECIALLY IF IT'S INTERNATIONAL.
IT'LL JUST TAKE SOME TIME.
I'LL TAKE ANYTHING YOU CAN GET.
WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME.
OVER HERE.
WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?
WATTS WAS SET UP. HE WAS
WORKING WITH SCHLOSSBURG.
THEY FOUND A BURIAL SITE
OF PAST MILLENNIUM MEMBERS.
THE LEGEND. WHERE'S
THE BODY NOW? IS IT SAFE?
I HID IT HERE. UNIT 998.
THIS WAY.
- YOU?
- UNIT 998.
LET'S CONFIRM BEFORE
WE TIDY THINGS UP.
WHO DO YOU WORK FOR?
HOW MUCH DO THEY PAY
YOU TO SELL YOUR SOUL?
NOT ENOUGH TO KILL US.
YOU SET UP WATTS TO DESTROY
THE CREDIBILITY OF THE GROUP.
I GOT IT. WHAT'S SO
IMPORTANT ABOUT THIS BODY?
WHAT DOES YOUR
GIFT TELL YOU, FRANK?
IT TELLS ME THAT THIS
WAS A TEST OF THE HEART.
AND YOU FAILED.
THE KEY.
DETECTIVE HEIM, A
BALLISTICS TEST WILL PROVE...
THAT THESE ARE THE WEAPONS USED
FOR THE MURDER AT THE HOSPITAL.
YOU MADE ONE MISTAKE.
YOU GAVE ME YOUR NUMBER.
IT WAS THE SAME PHONE LINE USED
TO CONTACT CHRISTY'S CHATTERBOX.
THAT'S HOW YOU SET THE TRAP TO LET
US KNOW SCHLOSSBURG WAS STILL ALIVE.
MAY I SAY IT NOW, MR. BLACK?
BOOK 'EM, DANO. MURDER ONE.
HIS BODY IS COVERED
WITH TATTOOS.
I LOOK AT THIS MAN AND I WONDER.
HE FOUGHT THE SAME
FIGHT WE WAGED TODAY.
DID HE HAVE THE
KNOWLEDGE THAT WE LACK?
THE KNOWLEDGE TO OVERCOME
THE EVILS OF THE MILLENNIUM?
AND DID HE HAVE THE FORESIGHT
TO PASS THAT INFORMATION ON TO US?
ARE THESE TATTOOS
MERELY DECORATIONS,
OR ARE THEY SECRETS
TO BE DECIPHERED?
WHAT DOES HE SAY TO YOU, FRANK?
HE HAD THE KNOWLEDGE,
PETE, BUT IT'S INSIDE HIM.
AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT
HE'S SAYING... IT'S INSIDE US.
WE JUST HAVE TO
FIND IT FOR OURSELVES.
I MADE THIS!
IT HAS COME TO OUR ATTENTION...
THAT YOU HAVE BEEN ENGAGED
IN AN INDEPENDENT PROJECT.
IT BEGAN... AS CURIOSITY.
IT'S BECOME MUCH MORE.
NOW IT'S A DISTRACTION.
AND THAT WHICH DISTRACTS
SHOULD BE EXCISED.
MR. WATTS, THE
UNINITIATED PERCEIVE TIME...
WITH NO APPRECIATION
OF THE BEGINNING...
AND NO UNDERSTANDING OF THE END.
TO THEM, TIME IS AN
INFINITE COMMODITY.
WE KNOW BETTER.
AND WE WILL NOT
WASTE A SECOND OF IT.
THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
WELL, THAT'S WHAT I INTEND
TO FIND OUT, SIR... WHO WE ARE.
THAT QUESTION WAS ANSWERED
WHEN YOU WERE ACCEPTED.
THE ANSWER ONLY LEADS
TO MORE QUESTIONS.
WHAT YOU WANT TO
CONFIRM, THEY WILL DENY.
WHAT YOU WANT TO
FIND, THEY WILL HIDE.
YOU ARE ON A PATH
THAT HAS NO BEGINNING,
NO MIDDLE AND NO END.
BECAUSE IT IS A MATTER OF FAITH.
MAYBE THAT IS WHAT
YOU NEED TO FIND.
THIS IS ALL ABOUT THE SCIENCE.
THEN YOU'LL NEVER
FIND IT. I'M CLOSE.
I JUST NEED A LITTLE MORE TIME.
PETER, WE DON'T WANT
TO LOSE YOU OVER THIS.
IS THAT A THREAT, SIR?
A CAUTION.
BECAUSE IF WE FOUND
OUT, THEY ALREADY KNOW.
PETER. COME ON IN.
- I DIDN'T GET YOUR PAGE.
- I DIDN'T SEND ONE.
- ANYTHING WRONG?
- WHAT I'M ABOUT TO ASK YOU IS...
UNAUTHORIZED BY
THE MILLENNIUM GROUP.
IF YOU TELL ME TO TAKE A FLYING
LEAP, I'LL COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND.
IT WON'T AFFECT OUR PROFESSIONAL
RELATIONSHIP IN ANY WAY.

I NEED YOUR HELP, YOUR GIFT.

MILLENNIUM THAT HAVE TO BE EARNED.
THERE ARE TRUTHS THAT YOU WOULDN'T
UNDERSTAND EVEN IF I ATTEMPTED TO EXPLAIN.
DON'T TELL ME. YOU
TOOK A BLOOD OATH.
NO LESS THAN HAVING
MY BREAST TORN OPEN...
AND MY HEART AND ORGANS
THROWN OVER MY LEFT SHOULDER...
AND CARRIED IN THE
VALLEY OF JEHOSHAPHAT.
THE DECAYING BODY IN THE LAB...
ISN'T THE ONLY
REASON WE'RE HERE.
THAT'S PART OF IT, BUT I'M HOPING THAT
THE BODY LEADS TO A GREATER DISCOVERY.
HOW LONG AGO DO YOU
THINK THAT BODY WAS BURIED?
IT'S VERY WELL-PRESERVED.
JUST AT A CURSORY GLANCE,
I'D SAY 50, 75 YEARS AT THE MOST.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG HAS PLACED
THAT BODY AT A THOUSAND YEARS OLD.
IT'S A BOG MUMMY. THE
BODY IS SO WELL-PRESERVED...
BECAUSE OF A POLYSACCHARIDE CALLED
SPHAGNUM THAT'S FOUND IN THE PEAT MOSS.
THEY'VE FOUND BODIES
AT 2,000 YEARS OLD.
BODIES THAT GO BACK TO THE
BEGINNING OF CHRISTIANITY.
BACK TO THE BEGINNING
OF THE MILLENNIUM GROUP.
THAT WOULD BE OF GREAT INTEREST
TO ARCHAEOLOGISTS, HISTORIANS.
WHAT'S THE INTEREST TO YOU?
WHY WOULD ANYBODY WANNA
KILL TO STOP THIS DISCOVERY?
THERE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THOSE WHO'VE
OPPOSED THE GROUP'S METHODS AND PHILOSOPHY.
BUT THOSE ARE THE
SNAKES IN THE OPEN.
IT'S THE SNAKE IN THE
GRASS THAT CAUSES CONCERN.
WE'RE BEING FOLLOWED.
I THINK TAYLOR WOULD LOVE THIS.
MM-HMM.
THEY'RE GOOD. THEY KNEW WE KNEW.
THOSE ARE JUST THE
ONES WE SPOTTED. DANKE.
POLICE SAID YOU LEFT THE
CRIME SCENE AN HOUR AGO.
MY GERMAN WASN'T GOOD
ENOUGH TO GET ANYTHING
MORE OUT OF THEM. WHERE
THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?
ANDREWS, WHAT
ARE YOU DOING HERE?
THE GROUP ASKED ME TO CONDUCT
A WORKSHOP ON KINESIC INTERVIEW...
AND INTERROGATION TECHNIQUES
AT THE POLICE ACADEMY IN BREMEN.
AS SOON AS I HEARD WHAT HAPPENED, I
CAME AS FAST AS I COULD. YOU GUYS OKAY?
WELL, IT'S BEEN A LONG
DAY, BUT WE'RE FINE.
WELL, I KNOW YOU'RE NOT ON
VACATION. YOU MUST BE ON A CASE.
WHY DON'T YOU GIVE ME THE
CASE FILES? I'LL DO SOME LEGWORK.
IT'S NOT NECESSARY,
REALLY. IT'S UNDER CONTROL.
IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'M BEAT.
I'M GONNA GO UP TO MY ROOM.
GOOD NIGHT. GOOD NIGHT.
- THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
- THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
YOU NEED ANYTHING, FRANK?
I'M JUST ALONG FOR THE RIDE.
SOMETIMES WHEN A CAR CRASHES,
IT'S THE DRIVER THAT'S KILLED.
SOMETIMES IT'S THE PASSENGER.
BE CAREFUL.
GOOD NIGHT.
YEAH. IT'S HACKER MAN.
UH, I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS
LITTLE PROBLEM OF YOURS, MR. W.
- GO AHEAD.
- DID A BACKGROUND CHECK
ON HERR DOCTOR.
GOT HIS IMPORTANT DATES, SIGNIFICANT
NUMBERS, NAMES OF HIS RELATIVES.
I'VE ALREADY TRIED A DOZEN
ALGORITHMIC COMBINATIONS.
- SO FAR, NOT EVEN A NIBBLE.
- THIS IS TIME-SENSITIVE
MATERIAL.
PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO SHUT US DOWN. I
NEED TO GET THROUGH AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
I'VE DONE A LITTLE
RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET.
OUR MAN HAS BEEN A
NAUGHTY LITTLE DOCTOR.
FROM HIS TERMINAL, HE HAS LOGGED
HUNDREDS OF HITS ON ADULT VIDEO WEB SITES,
ONLINE SEX CHAT, YOU NAME IT.
ALL AMERICAN-MADE.
HE PROBABLY PREFERS THE PRODUCTION
VALUE AND GALAXY OF STARS AVAILABLE...
TO SATIATE HIS, UH,
UNIQUE PERVERSITY.
- GET TO THE POINT, HACKER MAN.
- A GUY...
WHO USES HIS
WORKSTATION FOR PORN...
WOULD MOST LIKELY HAVE OTHER
SALACIOUS MATERIAL FOR USE...
ON HAND, IF YOU GET MY DRIFT.
IT'S A LONG SHOT, BUT MAYBE
THAT'S THE KEY TO HIS PASSWORD.
- SUICIDE HOTLINE.
- I FOUND HIS STASH.
MM. ANYTHING JUICY?
A COUPLE OF THE MAGAZINES
APPEAR TO BE OLDER,
WITH DOG-EARED PAGES.
PERSONAL FAVORITES, I PRESUME.
SOME OF THESE STARS HAVE
ATTAINED ONE-NAME STATUS.
KIND OF LIKE, UH, MADONNA
OR CHER IN THE MAINSTREAM.
TEN-TO-ONE, HE USED A
NAME FOR THE PASSWORD.
I'M TRYING GINGER.
MM, ENTHUSIASTIC.
TRACY.
JAILBAIT.
- SEKA.
- WHOA! BLAST FROM THE PAST.
HERE'S ONE.
HE'S A MEMBER OF HER FAN CLUB.
- CHRISTY.
- OH, YEAH, SHE'S HOT.
AN ULTRA BABE-A-LICIOUS.
OR SO I'VE BEEN TOLD.
I'M IN.
AH, THAT WAS GOOD FOR
ME. WAS IT GOOD FOR YOU?
DR. SCHLOSSBURG?
JA?
YOU WERE THIS CLOSE TO
HAVING AN ADDITIONAL RECTUM.
I HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE
WE'RE BEING MONITORED.
IS THAT WHY YOU HAD ME MEET YOU OUTSIDE
INSTEAD OF SOMEPLACE WARM AND LIGHT?
THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE SMELL
OF URINE? WATTS IS MISSING.
I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM ALL DAY. I
TRIED TO PAGE HIM. NO RESPONSE.
I HAVE NEVER KNOWN HIM
NOT TO ANSWER A PAGE.
HE'S BEEN BEHAVING IN
AN UNCHARACTERISTIC WAY.
I GOTTA BE HONEST
WITH YOU, FRANK.
THE GROUP BROUGHT ME
OVER HERE TO BRING HIM IN.
HE'S BEEN ACTING
TOTALLY ON HIS OWN,
UNDER THE AUSPICES OF MILLENNIUM WITHOUT
AUTHORIZATION, WITHOUT CONSULTATION.
AND HE'S BROUGHT YOU INTO THIS.
HE'S JEOPARDIZING YOUR
CANDIDACY. WE GOTTA HELP HIM.
WHAT DO YOU WANT
ME TO DO? FIND HIM.
HE OBVIOUSLY TRUSTS YOU.
DETERMINE HIS OBJECTIVES
AND CONTACT ME.
I'M AT THIS NUMBER HERE.
AT THAT POINT, WE CAN DECIDE TO
GET HIM THROUGH IT OR GET HIM OUT.
YOU'VE ALREADY HAD ONE
ATTEMPT ON YOUR LIVES.
WHATEVER HE'S DOING
PUTS US ALL IN DANGER.
THEY'RE MAINTAINING
SURVEILLANCE OUT FRONT.
YEAH, I NOTICED THAT. I
FOUND ANOTHER WAY IN.
YOU'VE BEEN HERE ALL THIS TIME?
YOU MADE IT INTO THE SYSTEM. DID
YOU FIND WHAT YOU WERE LOOKING FOR?
- NO.
- MAYBE IT DOESN'T EXIST.
A THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
WHEN THIS MAN WAS ALIVE,
OTTO III, EMPEROR OF
THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE,
DUG UP CHARLEMAGNE'S
BONES FOR INSPIRATION...
IN THE PLANNING OF A REFORMATION
OF RELIGIOUS FAITH ACROSS EUROPE.
WHAT HE SAW IN THOSE BONES
GAVE RISE TO THE PERSECUTION,
TORTURE, DEATH OF THOUSANDS.
AT THE SAME TIME, MEMBERS OF
THE ORDER OF KNIGHTS CHRONICLERS,
WHOSE WARNINGS ABOUT THE UPCOMING
MILLENNIUM CAME INTO CONFLICT...
WITH THE NEW ORDER OF
THE EMPIRE, BECAME HUNTED.
AND THEY WERE
FORCED UNDERGROUND.
THE KNIGHTS HAD IN THEIR
POSSESSION A HOLY RELIC.
THE HAND OF SAINT SEBASTIAN.
SEBASTIAN WAS ORDERED
SHOT TO DEATH WITH ARROWS,
BUT HE MIRACULOUSLY SURVIVED.
THE BOUNTY FOR THE RETURN
OF THE HAND WAS SO LUCRATIVE...
THAT MEMBER TURNED
AGAINST MEMBER.
THE GROUP WAS ALMOST DESTROYED.
SURVIVORS DISPERSED
ALL OVER THE WORLD.
AND THE HAND OF ST.
SEBASTIAN DISAPPEARED.
LEGEND HAS IT THAT WHOEVER
HAS POSSESSION OF THE HAND...
HAS THE KNOWLEDGE TO OVERCOME
THE EVILS OF THE MILLENNIUM.
THAT'S A GREAT STORY,
BUT YOU CAN'T BELIEVE...
THAT A MUMMIFIED HAND, EVEN IF IT'S
A HOLY RELIC, CAN TELL US ANYTHING.
THE DEAD CAN'T SPEAK.
THEY TALK TO YOU, FRANK.
IT'S YOUR GIFT. I'VE SEEN IT.
OTTO III SAW EVIL IN THE
BONES OF CHARLEMAGNE.
I WANNA FIND THE
GOOD, THE FAITH.
WHEN I FIRST BECAME AWARE OF THIS PROJECT,
I DIDN'T KNOW WHY I WAS INTERESTED.
- IT WAS SO...
- UNLIKE YOU?
BUT WHEN I LOOK AT HIM, THIS ANONYMOUS
MAN FROM A THOUSAND YEARS AGO,
THEN I KNOW WHY.
THERE IS NO FUTURE
WITHOUT A PAST.
JOHN SCHLOSSBURG
CALLED ME THREE DAYS AGO...
AND TOLD ME HE HAD FOUND
THE LOCATION OF "THE CIRCLE"...
A PRESERVED BURIAL SITE OF THE
ORDER OF KNIGHTS CHRONICLERS.
I HAVE SEARCHED EVERY
SCRAP OF INFORMATION HERE.
MAYBE IN A THOUSAND YEARS,
SOMEONE WILL FIND IT AGAIN.
COME PLAY WITH
ME. COME ON, LOVER.
ROEDECKER SAYS SCHLOSSBURG WAS
OBSESSED WITH THESE ONLINE SEX CHATS.
LAST NIGHT. LAST NIGHT?
THE POLICE SAID HE'S
BEEN DEAD FOR THREE DAYS.
YOU'RE ALWAYS JUST RIGHT, DOC.
LAST NIGHT AND EVERY NIGHT.
SCHLOSSBURG'S STILL ALIVE.
THEY'RE KEEPING HIM HERE
IN PROTECTIVE CUSTODY.
THERE'S A SHIFT CHANGE.
HI.
EXCUSE ME. DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?
I'M LOOKING FOR RADIOLOGY. I MUST
HAVE TAKEN A WRONG TURN OR SOMETHING.
SIGN. THE SIGN.
OH, IF I COULD READ THAT, I
WOULDN'T HAVE TO ASK, WOULD I?
COULD YOU HELP ME FIND IT,
PLEASE? COULD YOU SHOW ME?
PLEASE, IT'LL ONLY TAKE
A SECOND. JA, JA. OKAY.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG?
THERE WAS ANOTHER PERSON.
HE INTRODUCED HIMSELF
AS PETER WATTS...
BEFORE HE ATTACKED ME.
DID HE ASK YOU ANYTHING
BEFORE THE ATTACK?
NO. NOTHING.
DR. SCHLOSSBURG, DID YOU
FIND THE LOCATION OF THE CIRCLE?
NOTHING MAKES ANY SENSE.
UNTIL TODAY, I NEVER
MET DR. SCHLOSSBURG.
SOMEONE USING MY
NAME ATTACKED HIM.
WHY LET HIM LIVE?
THEN THEY MAKE AN ATTEMPT
ON OUR LIVES THAT FAILS.
MAYBE THE PLAN
WAS MEANT TO FAIL.
SO FAR EVERY MOVE WE'VE MADE HAS BEEN
IN REACTION TO EVENTS OUT OF OUR CONTROL.
UNTIL NOW, SOMEONE'S
BEEN SETTING US UP.
I BELIEVE WE'LL FIND
OUT WHO'S RESPONSIBLE
WHEN WE FIND THE
LOCATION OF THE BURIAL SITE.
SOMEHOW, EVERYTHING'S
TIED IN TO THIS BODY.
WHAT IF THE LEGEND'S TRUE?
THE KNOWLEDGE TO FIGHT THE EVILS
OF THE MILLENNIUM ARE OUT THERE.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
HERE TO FIND OUT.
WE'RE CLOSE.
PETER!
PETER!
WAIT! WAIT! NO, NO. GO SLOW.
GO SLOW. GIMME YOUR HAND.
COME ON.
LET'S GO.
WE NEED THE SHOVEL.
HERE. HOLD IT.
IT'S HOOKED ON SOMETHING. PULL!
WHAT THE HELL?
LET'S GO.
THE HAND OF ST. SEBASTIAN.
WOW.
THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
PETER WATTS,
YOU ARE UNDER ARREST FOR
THE MURDER OF DR. SCHLOSSBURG.
YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
CUFF HIM. THEY MUST HAVE
KILLED HIM AFTER I LEFT.
THEN THEY WANTED
YOU TO FIND HIM.
THE BODY. FRANK,
TAKE CARE OF THE BODY.
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!
PETER WATTS WAS AN ASSISTANT
DIRECTOR AT THE F.B.I. FOR 10 YEARS.
HE LED THE INTERNATIONAL TASK FORCE
ON CRIME FOR THREE OF THOSE YEARS.
HE'S A SENIOR MEMBER
OF THE MILLENNIUM GROUP.
AND I DON'T CARE WHAT EVIDENCE YOU
THINK YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE THE WRONG MAN!
MISS ANDREWS, DR. SCHLOSSBURG
IDENTIFIED MR. WATTS AS HIS ATTACKER...
PRIOR TO BEING MURDERED.
WE PLACE HIM AT THE HOSPITAL
VIA VIDEO SURVEILLANCE...
BEFORE THE CRIME.
TAKE CARE OF
THIS. I WANT HIM OUT.
YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO
APPRISE ME OF THE SITUATION.
WE WERE THEN TO
DECIDE A CAUSE OF ACTION.
NOW HE'S IN DEEP AND SO ARE YOU.
THEY SAY YOU'RE EXCAVATING
A BODY. WHERE IS IT?
WE'RE GETTING VERY CLOSE TO
FINDING OUT WHO'S BEHIND ALL THIS.
I WANT TO KNOW
EVERYTHING, FRANK.
THERE'S A PUBLIC STORAGE BUILDING
NEAR THE WATERFRONT ON RASTEDE.
MEET ME THERE TONIGHT,
IN A COUPLE HOURS.
NO MORE GAMES, FRANK.
NO MORE GAMES.
HELLO. ROEDECKER.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO FIND OUT WHO
ACCESSED SCHLOSSBURG'S ACCOUNT...
TO GO ONLINE TWO NIGHTS AGO?
I CAN MAYBE GET YOU THE
CHARGE ACCOUNT OF THE USER.
I CAN DEFINITELY GET THE PHONE
NUMBER WHERE THEY CONNECTED.
ESPECIALLY IF IT'S INTERNATIONAL.
IT'LL JUST TAKE SOME TIME.
I'LL TAKE ANYTHING YOU CAN GET.
WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME.
OVER HERE.
WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?
WATTS WAS SET UP. HE WAS
WORKING WITH SCHLOSSBURG.
THEY FOUND A BURIAL SITE
OF PAST MILLENNIUM MEMBERS.
THE LEGEND. WHERE'S
THE BODY NOW? IS IT SAFE?
I HID IT HERE. UNIT 998.
THIS WAY.
- YOU?
- UNIT 998.
LET'S CONFIRM BEFORE
WE TIDY THINGS UP.
WHO DO YOU WORK FOR?
HOW MUCH DO THEY PAY
YOU TO SELL YOUR SOUL?
NOT ENOUGH TO KILL US.
YOU SET UP WATTS TO DESTROY
THE CREDIBILITY OF THE GROUP.
I GOT IT. WHAT'S SO
IMPORTANT ABOUT THIS BODY?
WHAT DOES YOUR
GIFT TELL YOU, FRANK?
IT TELLS ME THAT THIS
WAS A TEST OF THE HEART.
AND YOU FAILED.
THE KEY.
DETECTIVE HEIM, A
BALLISTICS TEST WILL PROVE...
THAT THESE ARE THE WEAPONS USED
FOR THE MURDER AT THE HOSPITAL.
YOU MADE ONE MISTAKE.
YOU GAVE ME YOUR NUMBER.
IT WAS THE SAME PHONE LINE USED
TO CONTACT CHRISTY'S CHATTERBOX.
THAT'S HOW YOU SET THE TRAP TO LET
US KNOW SCHLOSSBURG WAS STILL ALIVE.
MAY I SAY IT NOW, MR. BLACK?
BOOK 'EM, DANO. MURDER ONE.
HIS BODY IS COVERED
WITH TATTOOS.
I LOOK AT THIS MAN AND I WONDER.
HE FOUGHT THE SAME
FIGHT WE WAGED TODAY.
DID HE HAVE THE
KNOWLEDGE THAT WE LACK?
THE KNOWLEDGE TO OVERCOME
THE EVILS OF THE MILLENNIUM?
AND DID HE HAVE THE FORESIGHT
TO PASS THAT INFORMATION ON TO US?
ARE THESE TATTOOS
MERELY DECORATIONS,
OR ARE THEY SECRETS
TO BE DECIPHERED?
WHAT DOES HE SAY TO YOU, FRANK?
HE HAD THE KNOWLEDGE,
PETE, BUT IT'S INSIDE HIM.
AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT
HE'S SAYING... IT'S INSIDE US.
WE JUST HAVE TO
FIND IT FOR OURSELVES.
I MADE THIS!
