Mrs. Nwokolo?
Eva Rojas, World Health Organization.
This is Dr. Hopper.
- Hello. Nice to meet you.
- Please come with me.
Sorry about the dark.
The light hurts his eyes.
- Thank you.
- What's his name?
Azikiwe. Most call him Kiwe.
Hi, Kiwe. My name is Eva.
We need to have a little look
at you, okay?

- For two days.
- Has he traveled anywhere recently?
- He was in Mali last week.
With his father.
- He's at the lighthouse.
That's where he works.
Blood pressure, 80/50.

- Easy, son. Easy. No, no.
- Kiwe!
- Sedative, Eva.
- What dose?
Two mils.
Easy, son. Easy. No. It's okay.
It's all right. You're gonna be all right.
Just trying to help.
It's okay. It's okay, Kiwe.
It's okay.
- Your mama... Your mama is here.
- It's okay, Kiwe. It's okay.
You all right?
- Mali, just like the others.
- Yeah, I know.
- This is an outbreak, Frank.
- We've got six cases.
- That's not enough.
- Oh, how many do we need?
Sixty?
Six thousand?
When does it start to matter?
We have to find the source, Frank.
You wanna go to Mali.
It's not gonna happen.
WHO isn't gonna lose
any more staff to a civil war.
- Here, finish your report.
- Good.
- Just in time for the autopsy.
- Eva.
I'll do what I can do.
I'll re-present to the board.
- And maybe they'll listen this time.
- Thank you.
from his father.
I'll find the father.
Hello?
Mr. Nwokolo?
Mr. Nwokolo?
Hey!
Help.
You have no business being here.
Quick, get her bag.
Are you okay?
Hey! Hey, pick that up!
What are you doing? Come on.
You're walking past...
All right, guys. Come on.
Guys, quit screwing around.
Come on. Come on, come on,
come on. All right, stop.
All right, hold it there.
Report any variances over two feet.
Here, hold on to these.
Come on, grab it.
All right. Come on, you piece of...
All right, give me a wrench.
I need the wrench.
Wrench! Anybody there?
All right, oil. I need the oil.
All right, the oil. Thank you.
That's it. All right, we're good!
We're good!
Sorry.
Here. Hi.
- Al Giordino.
- Eva.
- Eva Rojas.
- Nice work.
- Thanks.
- Welcome aboard.
Thank you.
All right, turn it on. Go down.
Go, go, go, go, go.
More. Keep going.
Hi.
- How are you? Feeling better?
- Yes, thank you.
- I'm Rudi.
- Sorry, where are we?
This is the Martha Ann,
It's a NUMA boat. Ship.
We didn't know who you were, so
we kind of patched you up ourselves.
You had an edema
of the upper tracheal track.
Rudi, I've been waiting
two months for this moment.
Don't mess it up for me
by letting him drown.
- Yes, admiral.
- Diver up!
In five, counting,
four, three, two, one.
Ladies and gentlemen,
may I introduce to you
after a 772-year engagement
on the bottom of the ocean:
King Bateen!
Nice job, everyone.
Except you, Al. What the hell?
It's a 10-ton-rated winch,
my friend, not a fly-fishing rod.
You know what? You're thinking
of the Thompson 12-91.
Whereas you're astride a 12-93.
- Not that you could operate either one.
- Boys!
- Sir?
- Sir?
The king meets the people
at the museum in five hours.
- Don't worry, sir. He'll be there.
- He'll be there.
He better be.
Secure those cables!
Hey, look who's on her feet.
Thanks to you, I guess.
You were lucky to just lose your bag.
Dangerous city.
Damn it, I did lose my bag.
- Nothing worth dying for, I hope.
- Well, that's a tough question.
Hey, Dirk, get your butt up here
so we can scrape
some of the crap off this thing.
- Excuse me. The wife.
- Come on, ladies,
get Mr. Bateen unhooked.
Clean him up.
We got a party to go to.
- Admiral?
- Retired.
- Jim Sandecker.
- Eva. Eva Rojas.
I'm with the WHO.
You look like you could use
a cup of coffee.
- Hey, Dirk. Hey, I need your help.
- What?
- Is it left over right, or right over left?
- This better not be like last time.
I can't remember.
It's driving me nuts.
Is there something about a rabbit
going around a tree or something?
I'll be there in an hour.
- What, Dirk?
- That was Oshodi.
He thinks he might
have found something.
Oh, that's great. That is fantastic.
- Thank you very much.
- No, no, no, no, fantastic for me.
I can't wait to tell Sandecker that you're
not gonna be at the museum tonight
because one of your contacts
from the Nigerian underworld
has found evidence of a Civil War
ironclad shipwrecked
- In a storm off Africa. Yeah, right.
- Storm off Africa.
That's what you're talking about, right?
Yeah. Sandecker's gonna freak.
- Look, Al...
- And I'll be there. He'll turn all red.
The fox chases the rabbit around
the tree and down the hole.
That's how the tie works.
Don't you worry, I'll be there.
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
First, I'd like to thank the Lagos
museum for this magnificent reception.
I would also like to thank
our primary benefactor on this project,
Yves Massarde.
Thank you.
We are NUMA,
the National Underwater
and Marine Agency.
And this, ladies and gentlemen,
is what we do.
King Bateen.
- Where is he?
- He's not at the buffet.
- Damn it.
- Do you want another kebab?
With the help of museums,
with the help of governments,
private organizations like ours
can work in partnership
to make sure that history,
history that has been lost
to the tides of time,
can be returned to its people.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Have a lovely evening.
Do you have a CD burner
on that ship of yours?
Yes, the same one I bought
from you last month.
I have a wonderful piece, straight
from the Iraqi National Museum.
Don't show me things like that,
Oshodi. We're not that friendly.
Okay, okay. Now, here it is.
A very special piece.
The one I spoke to you about.
It breaks my heart
just to show it to you.
Where did you get this?
Cash, please.
We are not that friendly.
This is a great party.
- Thank you for inviting us, admiral.
- The pleasure is mine.
Yves, this is the woman
I was telling you about,
- Dr. Eva Rojas.
- Hi.
I'm delighted to make your
acquaintance. I'm Yves Massarde.
Nice to meet you.
This is Dr. Frank Hopper.
- How do you do?
- How do you do?
Yves does a lot of business
in Africa.
Some even in Mali.
Will you excuse me?
I understand you believe there is some
