The Templar's have sent me a great distance...

Father Baleminus.

Don't say... such name.

They know me here as... Bartholomew.

I'm the custodian of the gospel...

of the grandmaster Jacques De Molay.

Dear God...

The Gospel contains his secrets...

of the Order of the Templar's.

No one except you, should know about it.

Before I die, I must give you the

responsibility, to take care of this gospel...

It is your ordained duty.

The Order of the Knights Templar's, was

completely destroyed by Guillaume de Nogaret...

Chancellor executioner and the right hand of the

King of France, however...

the immense treasure of the order was not destroyed...

it completely and utterly vanished.

Jacques De Molay, the grandmaster of the Order...

Was burned at the stake.

But before he died, he placed a curse, of sudden death and eternal damn nation...

of all those who were responsible for the destruction of the Order.

So Jacques De Molay's prophesy came true.

On April 20th, 1310, the Roman Pope...

Who was involved in the destruction,

of the Order... suddenly died.

A few days later Guillaume de Nogaret

himself... mysteriously died,

And on Nov. 29th... that very same year,

The king of France Philip IV...

also met his maker.

So was Jacques De Malay's prophesy...

responsible for demise of this men?

That is up to you to decide.

Excuse me, professor...

I was very interested... in your lecture,

I always been fascinated by the 13th

and 14th century...

- Well thank you!

- I am Pierre Seminal.

Michael Nazzaro... I've read all your books.

In fact...

you're the main reason,

I got interested in Russian history.

- It's an honor to meet you Sir.

- You're American?

- Yea.

So, what brings you... to this part of the world?

I... ah...

mystery I guess, what I'm hoping to resolve in Russia.

Russia has a 1000 years... of mysteries.

Oh believe me... I know.

Are you familiar with Bartholomew?

- 16th century I believe, the time of Ivan the Terrible,

- Yea...

- I found... an ancient book, written by him.

- Really?

It contains some symbols in there... and...

that resemble those of the Knights Templar.

- I think it could be some kind of a code.

- A code?... Of what?

Well...

I think it might help me, find the missing

treasure of the Knights Templar.

A historian and an adventurer...

you must believe what you teach.

That I do.

So...

what makes you think... that the

treasure is hidden here in... Russia?

Let's call it... instinct.

Well...

forgive me for asking but... how can

you afford this kind of research, on a...

professors salary?

I have a little hobby, that

makes a little extra cash.

- Watch where you're going!

- I'm so sorry.

- Sorry.

- Thank you.

I really am sorry.

- I told them to use their... imagination.

- Don't waste my time with your stupid ideas.

Now...

- what about transportation?

- I got something a little... special.

- Mike!

- Hey...

- I'm glad you could make it... ready to race?

- Yea man.

Come on.

That is a big man.

- Where is my money?

- Here

- That is my money.

Come on, I'll introduce you.

Wolf, I want to meet professor, from America.

- Welcome to Moscow professor.

- Thank you.

- I heard you're good.

- I try.

Do you know about the entry fee?

- 10,000.00 US... right?

- 10,000.00... but not to me, give it to him.

- That's a lot of money to lose.

- You sure you can afford it?

- I like you professor, nice to meet you, good luck.

- Thanks'...

- good to meet you too.

- Very good.

If he's as good as you say he is,

I have to take care of it...

because we don't wanna chance it...

especially tonight.

- There's a dead man inside.

- I know.

- Why would you steal a corpse?

- Mmm... that I do not know.

Come on...

They're coming, everybody gets ready!

Everyone wait's for my Order!

I've located them... remember stop there.

I'm on my way, get ready to switch cars.

We are ready to roll!

Sir! We have a third party entering

the zone, at a high rate of speed.

- Can I get a description?

- No Sir, he was going too fast.

Just stay put, this guy has no idea,

what he's driving in to.

- Bo!

- Yea?

Put your guns away.

Serge... put your guns away.

- You got the money?

- You want to count it?

Certainly I can't trust you.

- What is that?

- I have no idea.

- This is ridiculous.

- Let us make these transaction.

Just put it on the ground.

Any time now!

What the hell happened?

I said... wait for my Order!

Now...

Now... arrest them all.

Nobody move and nobody gets hurt.

- You're a death man.

- We'll see... have a nice evening, gentlemen.

Yea...

I don't wanna hear any more excuses...

Hi boss...

How'd you know, the special forces

weren't involved in this operation.

These weren't the Spetsnaz... I just got of the

phone with them, these where imposters...

Well, no Sir... I think somebody (?)

them of, right in front of our eyes.

- You think? Don't talk... get away from me.

- Whatever.

- That was sweet...

- A piece of cake...

Now I've got a race win... get my

double to disappear, and that's it.

Where's he going?

That's impossible.

Beekeeper and Bo's.

I haven't seen you two for ages, you just

can't keep your nose's clean, can you?

- That's just... your personnel opinion.

- Why don't you tell me what happened here?

Well... just a Saturday night get

together, you know... boys will be boys.

The money and the drugs are gone.

- What?

- Vanished.

Did you get a description of the

person in the car?

They all said the same thing,

the guy was big... I mean huge.

Hold them for twelve hours, that's all we can do,

and then don't let them out of your side.

- All right, take'm away.

- Move out.

Wow...

Yea...

Let's go to my club, all of you, we'll celebrate.

This is a tough way, to lose 10.000 dollars.

- Yea, tell me about it.

- I just wanna say... you did good.

Don't get upset, nobody beats Wolf.

- Yea, but I just hate a...

- Losing?

Yea.

- I'm ah...

- Michael Nazarro.

- I'm Masha.

- Well, it's nice to meet you.

I'm sorry, I... knocked you down,

are you a student?

Yea... post graduate, I have a

masters in economics.

You don't say,

You know, you're pretty famous at the university.

Really... I didn't know my teaching

was that well known.

Um um, it's not your teaching.

- Hey, congratulations man.

- Professor, you were good.

Oh yea... but just not good enough.

Like a lot of racers, talk to talk,

and you my friend walk to walk.

- Let's get a drink, come on.

- Let's go

- Elisa... how is the night so far, baby?

- I'm not complaining, what would you like?

Nothing for me, thanks'.

You sure you don't want Vodka?

The best Russia has to offer.

It will make your bad days good,

and your good days even better.

No, I'm okay.

Wolf... what about you? You're usual?

Absolutely... my milk.

- How do you do that?

- Have you ever served in the army?

Yea, but they didn't teach me how to do that.

Well... if you just can imagine, that the can

is your sergeant, you can do it.
