1200 BC.

An advanced civilization in

conflict from the Pleiades

landed on our planet pursued

by nine evil ambassadors

and their demonic armies.

A great war between

good and evil

took place in the

skies and the earth.

The Mayans fought side by

side with their great masters,

as described in their

sacred writings.

Together, they vanquished

evil and goodness prevailed.

The nine evil ambassadors

and their army

were defeated and condemned

to an eternity as prisoners

in a secret, underwater

labyrinth, hidden

in total darkness and far

from the sight of any living

creature in the universe.

The labyrinth was

sealed forever.

On December 21, 2012,

the chamber was opened.

This is our story.

Let me congratulate you.

It was a fantastic conference.

All the information you

have disclosed at this time,

I'm sure is going to change

180 degrees of the way

we see the Mayan cosmogony.

Thank you.

We really hope to soon

have you in our facilities

again in the near future.

Absolutely.

I would love to be back here.

Thank you for everything.

Thank you.

Doctor, I have

a copy of the codex here.

Father Grosjean told me

that he sent you a copy too.

You have Danielle's

cell contact information

in your mailbox as well.

Contact Miller and

get him back here.

Mr. Miller just left Afghanistan, sir.

He's on a private contract.

OK, I need him back

here, two days max.

Make it happen.

Use the emergency

funds if you have to.

But his contract has begun, sir.

I don't care.

Make it happen.

I need him here.

Dr. Green, we are

almost out of money.

Don't worry about the money.

I'm going to talk to Stanford.

Arrange me a trip to Valladolid,

and make sure you don't

talk to anybody about this.

Very well, sir.

OK.

Hello?

Dr. Green, how are you?

Excellent.

Just one second.

Hello my old friend.

How are you?

Give me some good news.

Did we find the holy grail?

I think we found it.

But I'm going to need

some more funding.

You will have your money

by the end of the day,

but I want the original codex

for my private collection.

That's my condition.

OK?

Yes sir.

Hi.

I'm looking for a

Mr. Daniel Noble.

Sure.

One second.

Thanks.

Yes?

I'm looking for

a Mr. Daniel Noble.

I am Danielle Noble.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Do you know Father Grosjean?

Yes.

Well, he referred me to you.

I'm Dr. Allan Green.

Oh, that's right.

He emailed me about you.

Can we talk?

I'm working right now.

Can you meet me in an

hour at the amphitheater?

Absolutely.

OK, I'll see you there.

OK.

So what can

I do for you, Dr.--

Green, Allan Green.

OK.

I'm going to cut to the chase.

I need an expert team to explore

a remote site in the jungle.

What type of a site?

Well, I'm not

sure yet, but it's

going to involve

underwater caves

and that's why I need you.

I don't dive caves anymore.

I know that.

That's why I'm

prepared to pay you

top dollar for your services.

I do all right here.

I'm sure you do, Miss Noble.

I'm talking about

life-changing money.

I wish money could

change my life.

I'm going to have

to pass, Dr. Green.

I am not your girl.

I'm sorry you had

to make the trip.

Please.

Father Grosjean

told me that you're

a true explorer and the best

bibliologist in this region.

What I'm offering you is a

unique opportunity to make

history in the diving world.

Father Grosjean told

me about the work

you've done in the cenotes.

You did all that amazing

work around the haciendas

and monasteries.

What exactly do you need?

I need a compact

but professional team

to join me in an expedition

to the jungles south

of the Yucatan.

I understand that you

know that area very well,

and I'm prepared to pay $100,000

to each member of your team

and double to you.

That is a lot of money.

What are you trying

to find there?

I'm afraid that information

I can't disclose just yet.

Well, I'm going to need more

information to talk to my guys.

Listen, Miss Noble, this

is a yes or no situation.

I need to assemble

my team ASAP and I

can't waste any more time.

How do you expect me to make

a decision based on nothing?

Secrecy is paramount

in this venture.

No one can know

where we're going

or what we're looking for.

I want a low-profile expedition.

If I'm right about this,

this will be the biggest

Mayan discovery of all time.

Good morning, baby.

What's wrong?

Tell me, what's the matter?

Where have you

been last night?

Do you remember leaving the bar?

Well, yes, but

that was Danielle.

Come on, give me a break.

She wanted to talk to

me about her business.

I was going to tell you

all about it right now.

It's freaking awesome!

You're amazing.

Look, babe, you

have to hear this.

A business with your ex-wife.

I can't wait to hear about it.

It's an exploration job.

A very well-paid

exploration job.

We don't need money.

Well, I know, but she

offered me 50 G's for five

days of work.

Come on.

We can get married with

that kind of money.

We can have a

marvelous honeymoon.

Come on.

OK, but I'm coming.

Perfect.

Adrina!

Just let me

explain to you what--

what the business is all about.

- Adrina.

Adrina.

This exploration job--

OK.

Baby, come on.

It's a great exploration job.

We have to go 150

kilometers way east.

Hey, Mark.

Hey, Dany.

What's up?

Check this out.

Oh, wow.

That's amazing.

Yeah, right?

I got it this morning.

I went out for a solo dive.

Is everybody sleeping?

Hey, what happened with Manny?

Oh, good.

He's in.

- Sweet.

Yeah, but I'll tell you later.

I'm going to wake up Raul.

Oh, no.

Hey, Dany, you probably

don't want to do that.

He's probably not

decent, you know?

Give him a chance to get ready.

Really?

Yeah.

Come on.

Hey, Raul, wake up.

Oh, sh*t.

I tried to warn you.

You know, she's nothing.

I think it's his cousin anyway.

I wouldn't worry about it.

Do we really need this guy?

Yes, we really need this guy.

Check that one out.

Ooh, that's great.

Hmm?

That's good.

Very cool.

He thinks we're overpaid.

Oh, really.

Do you?

I didn't say that.

Yeah you did.

I didn't say that.

I like Manny.

He's cool.

He's an a**hole.

He's a total a**hole, man.

See?

Hi!

And you are?

This is Dr. Green,

your boss from now on.

Get in the pickup.

Let's get the hell out of here.

- Give me a sec.

Eli's coming.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,

who the hell is Eli?

She's my girl, and

wherever I go, she goes too.

But don't worry, she's

an excellent diver.

I trained her myself.

Take it as a--

an extra free diver, my treat.

Listen, whatever your name

is, this is-- we're not here

to have fun, this is serious.

What is exactly his

position in the team.

Let's just say he's an

expensive insurance policy that

you hope you never get to use.

Seat belt.

Why do you got

to steal my thunder?

Why do you got to

steal my thunder, man?

No, go on.

Go on.

Yeah, right.

I wanted to be funny.

Well, I don't know funny.

Why don't you do

like Chris Walken?

I don't--

Like Christopher Walken.
