Warehouse 13 (2009–2014): Season 4, Episode 20 - The Truth Hurts - full transcript

The evil alchemist Paracelsus is on the run, and Pete and Myka must stop him before he achieves immortality - or something worse. Myka fights what appears to be a losing battle against cancer, while Steve learns Artie's been keeping life-altering information from Claudia.

Previously, on
Warehouse 13...

I have cancer.

Be good and quiet.
And I'll make you mortal again.

You took everything from me.

Now I'll take
something from you.

No!

Look after our son.

This is the Eldunari, the
Warehouse's central nervous system.

Something's tearing apart the
Warehouse from within its heart.

Two Caretakers vying
for the Warehouse.

Paracelsus was Caretaker.



Of Warehouse 9.

And as he gains strength,
I am...

I will...

I spoke to Mr. Kosan. Paracelsus
has to be taken alive.

- Alive?
- Yes,

in the state that
Mrs. Frederic is in,

if he dies suddenly, it could
cause a rupture in her psyche.

He has to be captured.
He has to be bronzed.

And that's how we can transfer
the Caretakership back to her.

Well how is she?

Worse and worse by the hour.

Dr. Abigail's with her,
but her memory's failing...

She's...

Fading.



So then what? Paracelsus
just takes over?

Claud, come on, you're the
future Caretaker, right?

Feel anything about him? I
don't know, like where he is?

Nada, no, I guess
I'm still in training,

but I will find this guy,
that bitch put me in bronze.

I have a score to settle.

Well, thanks to Joshua's blood
sample, you have the chance.

Yeah, how was Josh by the way?

Did he faint when you
took the blood,

because when it comes
to needles, he's so not butch.

Yeah, no,
he was pretty queasy...

Look, can we please focus

on stopping Paracelsus,
getting Mrs. Frederic better.

Steve, I want you
to go prep the bronzer.

Pete, you and Myka go and dig through
whatever we've got on Paracelsus.

Copy that.

I think I should
see him, could he...

Yes, yes.
That would be perfect.

I will call you back.

We should hang a bell
around your neck.

Yeah, but then I couldn't
sneak up on you,

and ask what's up
with all the hushy-hush.

I made an appointment
with my oncologist. Happy?

Yeah, as long as you keep it.

No ditching,
no "getting busy."

Yes, Dad.

Oh, my God, I liked you better as
your usual annoying 12-year-old self.

No, I just wanna make sure
you take care of this,

we don't need
any more surprises.

Respectfully, I decline.

Doctor, is there
something in my tone

indicating I was
offering a suggestion?

You're asking me to run,
that is not how I do things.

I want the Keeper to go somewhere
where she and her secrets are secure.

I made you a promise, Leena,
and I won't let you...

Leena, Leena, Leena...

I beg your pardon,
Doctor.

Irene.

Come with me to the B&B.

I belong with
my Warehouse.

But you... You carry
the most valuable information.

It must be protected.

She's right, Doctor.

You have to go
somewhere safe.

How's she doing?

She is fine and is
also still in the room.

More or less.

But I...

I don't know how
much longer I have, Arthur.

I'm gonna find away to sever
Paracelsus from the Warehouse.

The previous Caretaker
has precedence.

- Removing him is nearly impossible.
- I love a good challenge.

You! You have
to go right now.

Irene, be careful.

I've already lost enough
people I care about.

I'll see what I can do.

Was there something in my tone which may
have indicated I was offering a suggestion?

Here, here, here!

That's a lot of here's! I like that,
means there's something here.

I found us a ping, or more
accurately three pings.

- San Francisco City Hospital.
- That's one.

Patients and doctors
reported seeing a, quote,

"Strange and beautiful
golden light."

We love strange and beautiful.

Well then you'll want
to marry this.

That light was emanating from a
copper bowl being carried by a man,

a man fitting the description
of one Para-freaking-celsus.

Why San Francisco?

That's unclear, but we got the same
report from three San Fran hospitals.

What about the patients
exposed to light?

Are they all dead? I mean, is Paracelsus
racking up his death count like before?

No deaths reported, but a
lot of patients affected.

- Okay, so, I guess we should...
- I'll call you when I get there.

- Yeah, hi, what are you doing?
- You have a doctor's appointment.

Later this week, what am I supposed to
do till then, play fetch with Trailer?

Myka...

Pete, look, if anything happens
we'll be in a hospital, right?

The first sign of trouble...

Oh, God.

Nick.

Nicholas.

I know your mother was the only
real parent that you ever had.

I know that.

- I wish...
- What?

You wished what?

Paracelsus should have
killed me, not her.

Yes, he should have.

We had no idea
he was a mass murderer.

You never said anything.

Six hundred people died
to make us immortal.

- So, yes, it should have been you.
- We make choices in life...

Save your platitudes,
I'm not 15.

And I'm not your problem.

That's not true.
I'm still your father...

No, you're not.
I don't have a father.

Fathers think of something
besides their own interest.

You've never done
a thing for us,

but she was there.

She was the only person
in 500 years

who was always there,
and now I'm completely alone.

The man carried a bowl
with him, um, copper.

Had an Egyptian ankh on it.

He only came here,
to the terminal ward.

So he sought out
dying patients.

Yes, well, this
is the only wing he visited.

Pete!

Why didn't you do something?

Pete!

What?

What? What? What?

Dr. Trachtenberg's examined all the
patients exposed to the light.

- Yeah? And they're all getting worse?
- No.

The two patients in this room are
both in Stage IV lung cancer.

This is Maggie
and this is Lucy.

They're in complete remission.

Oh, my God, Mykes,
he cured them.

The Truth Hurts

Okay, okay,
so what are we thinking?

Huh? I mean, is it possible?

I mean, is Paracelsus...

I mean, is this part
of his plan? To cure people?

He killed Charlotte.

I know, I know.
Yes, yes, he did.

Also a bunch of villagers
500 years ago.

But, Mykes, they're cured.
I mean, what the hell?

I just...

So badly,
I just wanna believe...

I do too. A lot.

But I'm afraid we just
don't know his endgame yet.

Excuse me.

Maggie spoke with the man.

Maggie, hi. This is Agent
Lattimer and I'm Agent Bering.

- Hello.
- What did the man say?

Well, I asked him
what he was doing.

I was scared at first
but he told me not to be.

He said he could
see my cancer.

In my eyes.

And that I would be
a part of helping people.

He said it would
all be clear

once he got to the place where
the air had yielded to stone.

Before I could ask, he'd
already gone to another room.

Cryptic.

Great. We love cryptic.

Can you describe
the copper bowl?

Only that light
came out of it.

Golden light.

It was beautiful.

He took away all
that pain.

Maggie, thank you.

Okay, so the stone, right?

It's gotta be the
Philosopher's Stone right?

Right, and the air could represent
breathing or life, like a metaphor.

Oh, metaphors.

Worse than a cryptic.

Looks like he struck again, St.
Christopher's Medical Center.

Okay, we're on it.

Nothing yet on where the air has
yielded to stone, I'm still searching.

We think it might
be a metaphor.

I'm so
tired of metaphors.

Right? That's what I'm saying.

I'll find something.
You find him.

Steve's getting the bronzer ready for our
returning guests, but just in case...

What do you think... Oh, my
God, why do you have that?

- Don't panic.
- That's what Dr. Vanessa was going to use

to transfer the Caretaker connection
from Mrs. Frederic to me.

- Is she that sick?
- See, this resembles panicking.

- I won't put it on.
- It's not for you.

Whew! Okay, good, proceed
with the 'splaining please.

Do you mind?

Thank you.

Ah, now I can tell you.

Mrs. Frederic is getting worse,
so we've had to get inventive.

This ribbon,
it disconnects Caretakers...

So maybe use it to disconnect
Paracelsus, but he's not here.

That's the inventive part.

We are gonna send the power of this
ribbon through the Farnsworth.

You can do that?

The Farnsworth is more than just an
oversized iPhone, you know, yes.

I'm gonna send to...

Possibly.

- You have something to do besides look doubtful?
- You know, I...

Thank you.

So he did the same
thing here, why?

If Paracelsus needed sick people
why not get them in Istanbul?

Why come all the way
to California?

I don't know, nothing connects
the hospitals,

two county, two private.

One was elder care
and the other, ER,

only the most seriously
injured and then the...

- Cancer ward
- Huh?

- You can say the word "cancer."
- I know.

I can say it. You know,
cancer, cancer, cancer!

That was a little loud,
are you all right?

Okay, look, I know that
you're worried.

Whoa...
No, no, no.

I am not worried, okay?

I'm actually the opposite
of worried, I am un-worried

because you are going to see
your doctor this week.

And who told me that?
Oh, that's right, you did.

Excuse me, ma'am.
You need to...

- Hi.
- Hi.

Sorry, you asked me
to review the security video

and let you know which door
the gentleman left from?

- Mmm-hmm.
- We can't find any video of him leaving.

Our best guess is that the guy
is still in the building.

We locked down all the exits.

So I asked myself...

What could possibly make a
creepy basement even creepier?

I know.

It could also
be a morgue. Yippee!

This is the last place that
Paracelsus was spotted, so...

Leave me alone.

All right, all right, all right
you big ancient freak, give it up.

You're done here.

I'm healing. Is
that a crime in this century?

No, but killing Charlotte and
almost killing Claudia was.

Whatever it is that
you're planning...

I'm planning
scientific progress.

Okay, fine.

Fine, explain it to us then.

You really
wouldn't understand.

Oh! No, no, no.

We love it when air
yields to stone.

Myka, icebox.

Are you so afraid
of someone trying to do good?

You're not capable of good.

You killed 600
people, remember?

Come on. How many gave their
lives in search of the New World?

Progress always
requires sacrifice.

Sorry, lady.

How many lives were
lost in man's pursuit of flight?

In his exploration of space...

So you are gonna keep killing.

Pete!

Took out the camera.

Who knows, you
might find yourself surprised

at what I'm going
to do for mankind.

He's using an artifact
to throw his voice.

Oh, brava,
Agent Bering.

Now please let me
finish my work.

There's no need that your lives be
sacrificed for this great achievement.

You know what?
Let me tell you something.

I am tired of listening
to this pile of bull...

But make no mistake.

I will sacrifice
you if I must.

Where's your father? I need
to ask him some Paracelsus questions.

Don't know, don't care.

- Maybe this time he's gone for good.
- Oh.

So you're gonna
go with snotty.

Well, that's an
interesting choice.

Artie suggested the two
of you might be helpful,

but now I'm beginning
to think he oversold you.

Sutton was just trying
to protect you,

you can't be mad
at the guy forever.

Oh, can't I?
Just watch me.

Well, you don't have
forever anymore, do you, Nick?

You got what you wanted,
you're gonna grow up.

And part of growing up,
means you...

Oh, please stop.

I am 500 years old,

when are people gonna stop
talking to me like I'm a child?

When you stop acting like one.

Geez, you wanna complain to me about
your father not thinking things through?

You? The guy whose plan
involved turning me into

some kind of crumbly
bronze art?

I forgive you, by the way.

That's what adults do.

I know you didn't mean
for me to get hurt.

You were just doing the best you
could with the information you had.

So you're saying
I'm just like him?

I'm saying you have a pretty nice view
from your glass house over there.

Can we just...
I need help.

What can you tell me
about this phrase,

"The air has
yielded to stone."

I've no idea.

I know it's part of your
uncle's plan, I just can't...

Tell me what the immortalization
process was like.

I don't remember much.

It was awful.

It was a cold, wet dungeon.

The air was stale, even the
wood was twisted and strange.

Wood?

Wait, I thought it was underground,
rock and stone Why would there be wood?

I don't know.

But the room he had Mother and me
chained to was covered with it.

It was all shiny and polished.

It felt like stone,
cold and hard.

Petrified wood?

He'd have to go through a lot of trouble to
put petrified wood in an underground lab.

Okay, here's what
the quotation means.

- Could I?
- No.

Petrified wood is formed when plant matter
is buried, is cut off from oxygen...

- That would be the air.
- That would be the air.

When oxygen is cut off, what
that does is prevent decay.

So, when water
flows through it...

Water,
which contains minerals.

Those minerals deposit
themselves in the plant cells

eventually forming a stone mold.

So in cryptic speak, petrified
wood is formed when...

"Air yields to stone."

I wish I could go back and retake some
of those science tests I flunked.

- Paracelsus...
- Paracelsus needs petrified wood

for the immortalization
process.

And apparently a lot of it.

Because his lab was destroyed he needs
to go somewhere else to find it.

Yeah, but why stay
in San Francisco,

he can find petrified
wood anywhere.

No, no, no,
no, no, no.

- Only in one specific area in Western Turkey...
- Eastern.

Eastern Turkey right near
the mouth of Euphrates River.

So it's region-specific,

the artifact needs that
specific wood in order to work.

Right, unforts for Parry, that
area is now way overdeveloped.

But 100 years ago, a bunch of
it was sent somewhere else...

A certain city
by the bay.

Meet Lillie Hitchcock Coit.

Wait, wait, wait.
My dad told me about her.

She was a big supporter
of the firemen,

and the benefactor
of Coit Tower.

- I actually knew that, too.
- Maybe, but I said it first, so...

What most people
do not know...

Is that the tower was built with
a hidden inner wall made of...

Petrified wood.

From the Euphrates
River region.

Yeah, Coit liked
the symbolism

of wood that could
survive a battle with fire,

much like firefighters do.

So we gotta get there
before Paracelsus does.

Here's how you're
gonna get him.

This is a scanning disk.

It was first used by
John Logie Baird in 1926.

It was the world's first demonstration of
the live transmission of moving images.

So we're gonna
show him a movie?

No.

What we're gonna do is,
we're gonna use a Tesla

to blast the energy
of this ribbon

through our Farnsworth

and transmit it
to your Farnsworth,

directly at Paracelsus...

- Ooh, so we're gonna take him down by remote.
- Exactly.

And that should disconnect
him from our Warehouse.

Why don't we just capture Paracelsus,
bring him back to the Warehouse...

There's no time.
Mrs. Frederic is going fast,

and she may not last
till you get here.

Okay.

Okay, so we take him
down by Tesla.

We use the ribbon to disconnect
him from the Warehouse.

Don't worry, Artie,
we got this.

Okay, how far are
we gonna let him go?

Artie?
He's starting the process.

Pete, you get ready
to take him down.

This is for Charlotte!

Sutton, no!

What the hell is going on?

Artie, Artie,
shoot now!

Do it!

Aah!

Arthur.

Why have you allowed
a civilian in the Warehouse?

Mrs. Frederic?

Mykes, hey, are you okay?

Mrs. F!

Pete, what's wrong?
Are you getting a vibe?

Patient's flatlining.

Epinephrine, stat!
Bring the cart.

No!

Stop!

Too late,
Agent Lattimer.

So...

Maggie and all those
patients who got well,

they're all dead.

Just like Istanbul.

Progress demands
sacrifice.

I'm Paracelsus.

And I shall live forever.

I got this, Mykes.
Claud, track me!

Yeah, I'm tracking you.

Sutton!

He could have killed me,
actually killed me!

- Yes.
- Mortality is awful.

What are you doing here?

I had to prove to Nick, to
myself, that I deserved it.

Sutton, listen to me, okay?
You have to be careful,

- you're not indestructible anymore.
- Oh, it's not so bad...

- Ow! My shoulder, it's not healing.
- Oh, my God!

And it really hurts.

- I was right the first time,
this is dreadful! - Come on.

Look out! Look out!

Hey, watch it!

Shooting's not gonna
stop him, trust me.

If he gets to the wharf
you'll lose him for sure.

Claud, I think I got an idea.

Great idea, Pete,
I'm all over it.

Idea? What idea?
He's got an idea?

He's a smart boy when he's not
thinking about cookies or boobies.

Yeah, you may be immortal,
but you can't fly, can you?

Nope, no super powers.

And now you're finished.

- I'll be alive long after you've gone.
- Yeah.

As a statue. Maybe we'll
put you in a park.

Let's go.

The pharaoh's copper bowl

tethered him to those
sick people

and then, using the Stone, he
siphoned off their life force.

We can learn to do this with
fewer deaths. Possibly none at all.

But think of the
benefits to mankind.

Why sick people?

Weakened immune systems.

Easier to draw from.

Hundreds of
innocent people.

Look, we know that
you have a larger plan.

So what exactly
are you after?

I can see you.

You know,
actually, shut up.

- Let's bronze him already.
- Yeah.

My sentiments exactly.

He can be Warehouse 27's problem.

And...
He's not bronzed.

I developed
the bronzing process,

you think I don't know which
chemicals to ingest to prevent it?

Can't we just lock him up?

No, the Warehouse will still
see him as a Caretaker.

The Regents will know
what to do with him.

No, 500 years in one prison is
enough, I will not endure...

I think I said, "shut up."

So he's immortal, so what?
How about beheading?

Or burning alive.

Oh! Or we chop him into
tiny little bits, huh?

Let's experiment.

No, we have to transfer his
connection back to Mrs. Frederic,

- and we can't bronze him.
- What about the ribbon?

No, no it's too weak.

At least, it's not enough for someone
as strong as he is right now.

Have you considered that
I might be of more benefit

to the Warehouse as Caretaker
than this Mrs. Frederic?

Tiny little bits.

You know what?
Till the Regents get here...

Let's put him in
the Suspension Chamber.

Oh!

What is wrong with you,
Father?

It was a stupid risk, stupid.

But you told me
if was my fault.

I know, but...

I only told you it was
your fault because

I was afraid you'd
tell me it was mine.

I let Paracelsus out, and
if it wasn't for me then...

- Mother would still be alive...
- No, I'm respon... Ow!

I'm responsible.

I should have stopped
him a long time ago.

And I should have told
you both the truth.

Nick...

I know I can't take
your mum's place,

but as long as
I draw breath,

you'll never be alone.

Okay, let's give it a try.

Dad...

- Father?
- Yeah, "Father." Definitely "Father."

The sooner you leave, the sooner
that you can start your new lives.

Yes, could you speak
to the Regents?

They named me Ned.
Hating that.

That's karma for all
those back taxes.

You know,
I'm proud of you, Sutton.

All Charlotte wanted was
to keep her family together,

and you're making that happen.

It's what I would want.

You're not
so bad yourself.

Doing all this just
to keep the world safe.

Not everyone would.

Yeah, you have
to be a little impressed.

I am. A little impressed.

Bye.

Stay in touch.

Or not.

All right,
so you gonna tell me?

You know sometimes your
vibes are very annoying?

I know.

I talked to my doctor, and he's
concerned about some pain.

Okay, so...

You've been having pain?

He wants to do
the surgery today.

- Today?
- Yeah, just in case, you know.

In case of what?

They remove the mass
to biopsy it.

And they can see if
the cancer has, you know...

Spread.

It's a good thing.

You know, the surgery will
tell us how bad this is,

and then I can
start to fight it.

- Okay, I'm gonna go with you.
- What? No.

No.

No, I...

Pete, I don't want anyone there,
so I will just call you...

Myka, I don't want
you to leave me.

Okay? I just, I...

I got a thing about
that and I...

I know you do.

I know.

Look, I am not
going anywhere.

Hey!

I could use
a little help in here.

When you're...
When you're done.

We're almost done.
I just, I have a...

I have a thing
to do.

Yeah, you do your...
I'll be...

Okay, okay.

Pete...

Everything is going
to be fine.

It's okay. I'm fine.

Okay.

- Everything's going to be fine.
- Okay.

Hey, Artie.

How's Mrs. F?

Well, her
memory's almost gone.

Well, the Regents are
working on a solution,

but so far...

Nothing. And I have
run out of ideas.

Paracelsus is the only one that
knows anything about this.

Well,
he's not talking.

Yeah, well,
you know, Artie,

there's a lot of things
I can't do anything about.

- But I can do something about this.
- Wait, wait, wait...

- What are you gonna do?
- I'm gonna find out what he knows.

Trust me.

I'm feeling
very persuasive.

Artie, hey.

- We need to talk.
- No. No.

We don't need to talk.
You need to go.

You didn't see Joshua.

Yeah. No, I spoke
with his office at CERN,

he's been there
for weeks now.

If whatever you did has
Claudia still in danger..

Steve, don't worry about it.

Claudia is fine.

If you didn't use family
DNA, then what...

Stop.

You don't understand,

okay?

The DNA is fine.

I'm protecting her.

You can still protect her

if you tell her the truth.

It may be even safer.

If she knows,

she can be
prepared for it.

Prepared for what?
What truth?

I'll be gone soon.

If she becomes the Caretaker,

she'll find out anyway.

It'll be best
if you told her.

No, no.

What if she's not ready?

I believe Miss Donovan

would say
she was born ready.

She was, wasn't she?

Okay.
All right. My God.

I... I'll tell her.

It's okay, Artie.

You know, if it were up
to me, we wouldn't be talking.

But you tell me how
to save Mrs. Frederic,

and I'll make sure that you get handed
over to the Regents in one piece.

I have no idea
how to save her.

No, I think you do.

I know you're upset, it can't
be easy with your friend dying.

Mrs. Frederic is more
than a friend, pal.

- She...
- No, no, not her. What is it...

The young one... Myka.

She's very, very ill.

You didn't know?

Myka is dying.

No.

No. You...

You're wrong. Myka...

Myka's going to be fine...
Er... She's...

Having the surgery and
they'll take out the cancer.

No, it has spread.

Far beyond whatever
they can remove.

Oh, please, how could you
possibly know that?

Her eyes.

I saw it in
her eyes.

He said he could see my cancer.
In my eyes.

Spots on the iris.

They can reveal things
about someone's health.

But you know this.

You know she's been lying.
You felt it.

She's going to die.

Now I suppose you
can help her.

This is the Warehouse.

There are things here
that can help.

Sorry, pal, but we don't
use the artifacts.

So, if I was to tell you
which artifacts can help her,

you would seriously
do nothing?

You would let them
sit on the shelf,

rather than saving her life?

Hey.

You wanted to see me?

Hey, yeah. Um...

Listen, there's something
we should discuss.

Oh, boy.
I know that tone.

Uh, Artie, I'm not ready to
talk about being Caretaker...

- Oh, no, no...
- We're gonna find a way to save Mrs. Frederic...

Claudia, it's about
something else

- you may not want to hear...
- The Regents are gonna...

Would you please
listen to me!

The DNA...

That slowed down the
decomposition of the bronze...

I didn't get that
from Joshua.

- Oh?
- There was just no time.

Your life was in danger.
Your life, okay?

I had to have
a blood relative.

I got the sample...

From your sister.

What? No.

That doesn't, um...

Claire was killed.

Claire was killed in the car
accident that killed my parents.

Uh, Joshua told me about it
I've been to their graves...

Claudia...

Your sister's alive.

The last time your artifact
"cured" people, you murdered!

That's different. These are
two specific artifacts,

minimal downside. You can see
for yourself look at the tags.

And I'm not being
altruistic.

I want something in exchange.

Oh, there it is.

Yes, of course.
There's a catch.

No, no, no. Listen...

The Regents will
punish me severely.

Now I'm immortal,
it will be for forever.

You have no idea,
no idea, what it was like...

Conscious.

And yet inert,
in bronze.

I am a scientist.
My mind cannot stop.

I cannot endure.

No, I conceive,
I conceive...

That you want
me to beg them,

to show you mercy.

No, no, no. I want you to ask
them to erase my mind.

As if I didn't exist.

They must have
that power by now.

The Janus Coin.

The Janus Coin
will facilitate

the separation of a person's
consciousness from their body.

It would be like killing.

It's what you want.

Do this and I'll help you combine
the artifacts that can cure Myka.

- I don't understand.
- I know, it's a lot to take in.

Claire is alive.

My sister is alive.

And you knew...

And you didn't tell me.

None of this was easy, I really had
to make an informed decision...

- Oh, an informed decision?
- Yeah.

That must have been so nice.

Listen, it's not that simple, Claudia.
Could you listen...

Does Joshua know?

Does Claire know about me?
Does she know where I am?

How long have you known?

No, Claudia. You're focusing
on the wrong thing...

When...

Did you...

Know?

It was part of my intel when I was
tracking Rheticus' Compass, so I knew...

Before I met you.

No, sir. Miss Bering
is still in surgery.

What? No, no, no,
no, no, no.

She was supposed
to be out by now.

Look, what's going on?
Were there complications?

I'm sorry. I don't have you
listed as the next of kin.

You'll have to wait
till the doctor...

No, never mind. I was
gonna ask her, I just...

Never mind. Thanks.

I know what to do.

Okay.

I got 'em, right?

The thing from Hippocrates' robe
and the Chinese guy's scalpel.

Now tell me how to use these
things, so I can save Myka.

Bring the clasp to
1,940 degrees Fahrenheit.

You must use caution, as it will
begin to evaporate quickly.

What? How the hell
am I gonna do that?

Well, I'm sure there's something here
you can use, it's the Warehouse.

Okay, fine, fine. Let's just
say I can What do I do then?

I just...
I dip the scalpel in?

No, no, no. Artifacts are
extremely unstable.

You must introduce the scalpel
into the molten metal,

exactly half a centimeter
at a time.

You must be precise
or the result could kill her.

Great. No pressure.

I'll talk you through it. I've
devoted my life to this science...

Yeah, well,
this is Myka's life.

Agent Lattimer,
we're running out of time.

Once the Regents arrive,
I can't help you.

No.

No, I can't. I can't.
I can't, okay?

What if I mix
them wrong and I...

You.

You can do it.

So you can blame me,
if it goes wrong?

No, no.

You're her best shot.

You said it yourself, I mean, I'm not
gonna let something sit on the shelf

that can save Myka.
Not even you.

First I'll make you
mortal again.

No.

You have no idea
how the Stone works.

You can talk me
through it, right?

Then you save Myka. Of course, I'll
have a gun to your head the whole time,

but once you're mortal again, you don't need
to worry about eternal Regent punishment.

No, no.
I don't think...

No, it's this or forget it.

You have been
lying to me.

- It's complicated. No. No.
- It's a lie.

And you've been doing it
as long as I've known you.

Please, look, it was for
your own protection.

Protect me from what?

- From...
- From the truth?

Your sister, she's an
incredibly dangerous woman!

This will reverse everything
I've worked for my entire life.

Okay, so the temperature
doesn't matter?

No. Just do it quickly,
before I change my mind.

Oh, God.

That didn't happen
when you used it on...

What the hell?

No, it didn't.

How did you get...

When the Stone is used
in proximity to the Eldunari,

the Caretaker's link to the Warehouse
is increased exponentially.

Oh, yeah...

The Eldunari in the Warehouse
is a pretty good trick,

but it's not gonna
stop me from

kicking your ass!

I am now in complete
control of the Warehouse.

Thank you so much.

You will be very useful
for my future endeavors.

This is my house now!

Artie!

Artie!

Artie, something bad.
Something really bad.

Paracelsus...

His connection's
even stronger now.

This is it...

This is the end.

Whoa, what are
you doing?

Oh, my God.

The ribbon wasn't strong enough
to disconnect Paracelsus.

No, but you could still
disconnect Mrs. Frederic.

I'm so sorry.

The choice was this or death.

Thank you, Claudia.

That means that
Mrs. Frederic is...

No longer the Caretaker.

And she may never be again.

Paracelsus is more
than just the Caretaker now.

I felt him take complete
control of the Warehouse.

We must leave now.

You got what you want,

why don't you just kill me?

I have no need to kill you.

My first act as sole Caretaker
will be to expel all my enemies.

So, get out
of my Warehouse.

Oh, my God.
Pete, are you all right?

No, definitely not.

Mrs. F, are you all right?

I've seen better days,
Agent Lattimer.

It's Paracelsus.

He's literally trying to chase
us out of the Warehouse.

Guys, we've got
to get out here.

No, no, no. The umbilicus
was cut off by the quake.

We need another exit.
Come on.

There are other
exits, right?

Follow me.

My house now!

Up there.
The way out.

Let's go, let's go!

I can't go.

Claud?

I have to stay.

No, absolutely not.

You don't know
how you know it,

but you know it, don't you?

The Warehouse needs me. I...

I have to stay
and fight Paracelsus.

No, no.
It's too dangerous.

Artie, you have made enough
calls about my safety,

I'm deciding this one.

I'm sorry.
Listen to me...

The Warehouse will protect me.

Yes, I believe it might.

We have to stop this freak.
If you stay...

He might kill you all and
I can't stop him myself.

I can't just leave you here.

I'll fight him from the inside and
you'll fight him from the outside.

You're just gonna have to
trust me on this, Jinksy.

Yes.

You need us to live,
so we can fight another day.

Come. There's no time.

You know, I...

Very much...

I know. Me, too.

You have to go.

Claud.

Claud, I'm really sorry.

It's not your fault.

I'm counting on you to stop this
guy more than anybody, okay?

I will.

I swear it. I will,
whatever it takes.

Paracelsus has the Warehouse.

And he has Claudia.

How?
