Zodiac: Signs of the Apocalypse Page #5

and now Kathryn...

- You weren't wrong.

- Colin, just...

- You weren't wrong.

- Colin...

Kathryn's dead because of a disaster,

not because...

You don't understand.

I can't protect you, Colin.

This is it. We're here.

S.C. Engineering?

You gotta be... you gotta be kidding me.

This is one of Harry Setag's companies.

Who's Harry Setag?

His hero.

- You okay?

- Yeah, thanks.

S.C. Engineering has

one of the most advanced

biometric security systems in the world.

Nice job, son.

Hello?

- Hello?

- What was that?

- Bye.

- I don't know. It's up there.

Come on.

Hello...

scotch.

Uh, hello...

people.

You're...

you're...

- you're Harry Setag.

- Am I?

That I am.

Uh...

drink?

- I...

- His name is Colin.

My name is Neil Ryan and this is Sophie.

I heard somewhere you didn't drink.

I don't?!

But this 70-year-old single malt...

best sex you'll ever have.

I'm told.

- Cigar?

- No.

No, we're... We're fine, but thank you.

Mr. Setag,

we're looking for some Sumerian tablets

that you bought from Polydynamics.

- Show yourself to the door!

- What?

And tell that bastard

Woodward he's not getting

- one damn thing from me. Ever!

- Wait, no.

- No, no, no, look.

- That's a fact.

We don't work for Woodward.

Really?

Please, Mr. Setag.

The tablets that you bought,

they may contain information

that could save the world.

Well...

knock yourself out.

As far as saving the world goes,

you're a little late.

- What is that?

- Wait a second.

I appreciate your enthusiasm.

You know?

When I came by my first billion,

I started to wonder.

If I could do anything I want...

what is it I wanna do?

I invested in promising

avenues of discovery,

but the richest opportunities

often lie where others

have given up looking!

To the creative mind...

There are no dead ends.

You read my book.

Why...

have a cigar.

I've read all your books.

I have, too.

This machine, the scale of it.

- We can't build it.

- But we have to at least try.

Even if we had the entire Army

Corps of Engineers, we wouldn't...

It would take years, Sophie.

Uh, 18 months.

- What?

- It took us a year and a half

to make that damn machine.

What? You... you built this?

Wait, wait, wait. Wait, what?

Gave my accountant a heart attack.

You funded Polydynamics.

Eh, it doesn't make any difference.

The machine is useless without the stone.

Mr. Setag.

You actually found it.

There are no dead ends.

Aah!

To the car! Come on, get out of here.

Colin, let's go! Come on!

Open the door!

Put it back in my backpack.

Here, here! Take this one.

- Put pressure on it.

- It's okay.

Get downstairs, cover the other exits!

- Open the door!

- Is there another way out of here?

By the staircase on your way to the lodge.

- Dad, you're shot!

- On three, come on.

- Help me!

- No, no, no, no. Absolutely not.

One thing I've learned

in my career is to know

who's an asset and who's a liability.

You need to get to the machine.

Go.

Drive it to Mt. Franklin. Go!

- Go!

- Let's go, let's go!

Colin, here!

Go. Save the world!

Thanks.

Damn it!

Hello, Harry.

Woodward.

- Okay.

- Hold still.

Eyes on the road, all right?

I'm sorry,

I've never seen my dad get shot before.

So how does this machine even work?

- It's a shield.

- A shield? A shield from what?

- Sagittarius?

- Yes.

According to Setag's tablet,

it's comin' from the sun.

It's a solar eruption.

I need that stone.

I would...

no, actually, I wouldn't.

Okay!

Aah!

Hand me... that bottle.

The Bordeaux.

See, I know you don't have it.

I know that Neil has it.

What I need from you...

- Where's Neil?

- I don't... I don't know.

He left.

Went for a stroll.

Okay!

Give me that.

What is this?

- Blueprints.

- I know it's a blueprint!

What...

is it a blueprint of?

A machine built by...

a primitive civilization

that shouldn't have even had

the knowledge to make it.

You built a 10,000-year-old weapon

powered by that stone,

and you just sent Neil out

to go turn it on?

No, what you should be asking

is how did they access the materials?

How did they even know

the power of that stone?

How did they know

that it had to be built

in a lead deposit?

- How did th...

- Lead...

Huh?

...deposit.

Harry, Harry.

What lead deposit?

Do you hear that?

It's Woodward! Go!

Nice and low. Get right on 'em.

Get right on 'em!

Keep up, keep up, keep up!

Stay with 'em. Stay with 'em!

Stay with 'em!

Colin!

Plea... oh, sh...

Get right down on 'em!

Get moving.

Come on, go!

- Be careful.

- He's closing in!

Stay with 'em. Stay with 'em.

Stay with 'em.

All right, down, down, down.

Go! Just go, Colin!

- Colin!

- Go!

Where the hell'd they go?

They got nowhere to go.

They got nowhere to go.

Look out!

Now I gotcha.

- Colin, it's a dead end!

- There are no dead ends.

What?!

Where'd they go? Where the hell'd they go?!

Where the hell did...

They just disappeared!

Circle around!

Great Scott!

It worked.

One of Harry Setag's first inventions.

Holograms.

I think I just crapped

my third grade homework.

They went right into that mountain.

Where the hell did they go?

Take us down.

Take us down now!

Come on.

He really built it.

Okay.

Unbelievable.

This is where the stone goes.

Okay, how do we get it open?

Okay, we gotta...

Put everything in sequence.

- Watch out!

- Go fast

All right, get the machine open.

I'll get the stone.

Uh... okay, uh...

No, wait, don't. It has to be in sequence.

Sagittarius is last.

Taurus. Taurus is first.

- Uh, okay.

- Um...

Wait a second.

- Okay.

- Taurus...

- Uh...

- Aquarius.

Yeah.

Ugh!

- Uh, Pi... Pisces!

- Pisces.

Uh... uh, Virgo!

- Virgo, uh...

- Um...

- Gemini!

- Yeah.

Aah!

Capricorn.

Uh, a little help here.

- Little help.

- Okay.

Okay.

Okay, okay, let me think. Um...

Uh, I can't remember what's next.

- Scorpio.

- Yes.

Aries.

Cancer.

Good. Good.

Okay.

Sagittarius.

We did it!

Now all we need is the stone.

Here!

Okay.

Go. Go! Get out of here! Go!

Go. Go! Run! Run!

We gotta get outta here. Run!

Go, go, go! Come on!

Dad, you drive!

Oh, my God.

Aah!

Go, go, go, go!

That's good, right?

You did it.
