- Previously on Warehouse 13...
- I have cancer.
- Be good and quiet, and I will make you mortal again.
- You took everything from me.
Now I'll take something from you.
[gunshot] - No!
- Look after our son.
- This is the eldunari,
The Warehouse's central nervous system.
- Something is tearing apart
The Warehouse from within its heart.
- Two caretakers vying for the Warehouse.
- Paracelsus was caretaker.
- Of Warehouse 9.
And as he gained strength, I--
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.
And she's...
Fading.
- All right, so then what? Paracelsus just takes over?
Claude, 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.
Bitch put me in bronze. I have a score to settle.
- Well, thanks to Joshua's blood sample, you'll have that 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, I know, he was pretty queasy when...
Look, can we please focus on stopping Paracelsus,
Getting Mrs. Frederic better?
Steve, I want you to go prep the bronzer,
And Pete, you and Myka go dig through
Whatever we've got on Paracelsus.
- Copy that.
[beeps]
- I think I should see him. Could he--
Yes, yes, that would be-- that would be perfect, and--
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.
- Well, I-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.
- Well, I just want to 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 she and her secrets are secure.
I made you a promise, Leena, and I won't let you--
["Leena" echoing quietly]
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.
[sighs] How's she doing?
- She's fine and is also still in the room, more or less.
But I...
I don't know how much longer I have, arthur.
- I am gonna find a way 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, here, here, here, here, here, here, here.
- What? That's a lot of "here"s.
I like that. It 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 "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.
- All right, 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.
[door beeping]
- 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?
- [groans]
The first sign of trouble.
Oh, god.
- [sighs] nick.
Nicholas.
I know that your mother
Was the only real parent that you ever had.
I know that.
I wish-- - What?
You wish 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.
600 people died to make us immortal.
So, yes, it should've 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.
[trolley bell rings]
- The man carried a bowl with him, 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, what?
- Dr. Trachtenberg's examined
All the patients exposed to the light.
- Yeah, and? What, they're all getting worse?
- No, the two patients in this room
Were both in stage four lung cancer.
This is maggie, and this is lucy.
They're in complete remission.
- Oh, my god, mykes, he--
He cured 'em.
[mysterious music]
♪
- Okay, okay, so--so-- so what are we thinking?
Huh? I mean, is it-- 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 want to believe that--
- I do too. A lot.
But I'm afraid we just don't know his endgame yet.
- 'scuse me.
Maggie spoke with the man.
- Maggie, hi. Um, this is Agent Lattimer.
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.
[both sigh]
- Okay, so the stone. Right?
It's gotta be the philosopher's stone, right?
- Right, and then the air could represent breathing or life.
Like--like a metaphor.
- Oh, metaphors...
Worse than 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.
- [scoffs] I'm so tired of metaphors.
- Right? That's what I'm saying.
- All right, I'll find something, you find him.
- Steve's getting the bronzer ready for our returning guest,
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 gonna 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.
- [exhales] okay, good.
Proceed with the 'splainy, please.
- Do you mind?
Thank you. [clears throat]
There. Now I can tell you.
Mrs. Frederic's getting worse, so we've had to get inventive.
This ribbon-- it disconnects caretakers, so--
- 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--
Do 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, the other e.R.--
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.
- [laughing] whoa, no.
- But-- - No, no, no, no.
I am not worried, okay?
I am actually the opposite of worried, I am unworried,
Because you are going to see your doctor this week.
And who told me that? Oh, that's right. You did.
- 'scuse 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?
- Mm-hmm.
- We can't find any video of him leaving.
Our best guess is that the guy's still in the building.
We locked down all the exits.
- So I ask myself,
What could possibly make a creepy basement even creepier?
[bang]
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 am healing people.
Is that a crime in this century?
- No, but killing charlotte
And almost killing Claudia was.
Whatever it is that you're-- 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, no, we--
We love it when air yields to stone.
- [laughs] - Like an 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, hmm?
Progress always requires sacrifice.
- [grunts]
Sorry, lady.
- How many lives were lost in man's pursuit of flight?
It is 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.
- [sighs]
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--
Aah!
- 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 no, 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.
Jeez, 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.
It'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 have 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 to a lot of trouble
To put petrified wood in an underground lab.
- Okay, here is what the quotation means.
- Could I-- - No.
- Petrified wood is formed
When plant matter is buried and 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... - Those minerals de--[sighs]
- Deposit themselves in the plant cells,
Eventually forming a stone mold.
- So in cryptic speak,
Petrified wood is formed when... - Air yields to stone.
Ha ha.
See, I wish I could go back and retake
Some of those science tests I flunked.
Both: 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 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 the euphrates river.
- So it's region-specific.
The artifact needs that specific wood in order to work.
- Right.
Unfortch for parey, that area is now way overdeveloped.
But about 100 years ago, a bunch of it was sent somewhere else.
- A certain city by the bay.
- Meet...
Lillie hitchcock coit.
- [gasps] - Wait, wait, wait, wait.
My--my dad told me about her.
Uh, 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...
- All right, what most people do not know...
- Is that the tower was built with a hidden inner wall
Both: 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.
- All right, 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 the 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, and then--
- 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'll use the ribbon
To disconnect him from the Warehouse.
Don't worry, Artie. We got this.
[banging, concrete crumbling]
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!
[gunfire]
- Sutton, no!
- [grunts]
- What the hell is going on?
- Artie, Artie, shoot now! - Do it!
- [grunts] - Aah!
- Arthur, why have you allowed a civilian in the Warehouse?
- Mrs. Frederic.
- Mykes, hey, are you okay?
- [inhales]
- Mrs. F!
- [inhales]
- Pete, what's wrong? Are you getting a vibe?
[heart monitor beeping]
[flatlining] - Patient's flatlined.
[indistinct chatter]
[heart monitors beeping]
- No!
Stop!
- [grunts]
[laughs]
Too late, Agent Lattimer.
[laughs]
- So maggie
And all those patients who got well, they're--
They're all dead. Just like istanbul.
- Progress demands sacrifice.
I am Paracelsus, and I shall live forever.
- I got this, mykes! Claude, track me!
- Yeah, I'm tracking you.
- Sutton!
- He could've killed me! Actually killed me!
- Yes! - Mortality's awful!
- Look, what are you doing here?
- I had to prove to nick-- to myself, that I deserve him.
- Sutton, listen to me, okay, you have to be careful.
You're not indestructible anymore.
- Oh, it's not so bad--
Ow! My shoulder! - Oh, my god!
- It's not healing! And it really hurts!
I was right the first time. This is dreadful!
- Come on.
- Whoa.
- Look out, look out!
- Whoa, man.
- [grunting] - Hey, watch it.
- Shooting's not gonna stop him! Trust me!
- If he gets to the wharf, you'll lose him for sure.
- Claude, claude, 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.
- [grunting]
Yeah, you may be immortal,
But you can't fly, can you? Nope.
No superpowers. 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.
[machine whirs]
- And...
He's not bronzed.
- I developed the bronzing process.
Do 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 'bout beheading?
Or-- 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. - [sighs]
- You know what?
Till the regents get here,
Let's put him in the suspension chamber.
- [chuckling] oh.
- What is wrong with you, father?
- Ow! Oh, agh.
- That was a stupid risk. Stupid.
- But you told me it was my fault.
- No, I know, but, look, I only told you it was your fault
Because I was afraid you'd tell me it was mine.
I mean, I let Paracelsus out, and if it wasn't for me,
Then mother would still be alive.
- No, I'm resp--ow.
I'm responsible.
I should've stopped him a long time ago.
And I should've told you both the truth.
Nick, I know I can't take your mom's place.
But as long as I draw breath, you'll never be alone.
- Okay.
Let's give that 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.
[sighs] Not everyone would.
- Yeah. You have to be a little impressed.
- I am. A little impressed.
- Bye.
- Stay in touch!
Or not. - [laughs]
- 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 been having pain.
- He wants to do the surgery today.
- [scoffs] today.
- Yeah, just-- 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. Well, I'm gonna go with you.
- What?
No.
No. No. [chuckles] no.
I-I-I really--Pete, I don't want anyone there,
So I will j--I will just-- I will call you.
- Myka, I don't want you to leave me.
Okay? I just--I...
I got a thing about that, and I-I'm--
- 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, uh...
I have a thing to do.
- Yeah, you do your-- I'll be...
- Okay. 'kay.
Pete...
Everything is going to be fine.
- It's okay, I'm fine.
Okay.
- Everything's gonna be fine.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Hey, Artie.
How's mrs. F?
- Ah, well, her memory's almost gone.
The regents are working on a solution,
But so far nothing, and I've run out of ideas.
- Paracelsus is the only one that knows anything about this.
- Yeah, 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.
And 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.
If whatever you did has Claudia still in danger--
- Steve, don't worry about it. Claudia is fine.
- Yeah, but if he 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 caretaker,
She'll find out anyway.
It'll be best if you told her.
- [exhales]
No, no. What if she's not ready?
- I believe ms. Donovan
Would say
She was born ready.
- She was, wasn't she?
[sighs] Okay, all right. God.
All right, I'll tell her.
- It's okay, Artie.
- [sighs]
- 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.
- Oh, 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 helped-- - No, no, not her.
What is it, uh, the young one. Myka.
She's very, very ill.
You didn't know? Myka is dying.
- No.
No, you're--
You're wrong.
Myka...
Myka's gonna be fine, they're, uh--
She's having a surgery, they'll take out the cancer.
- No, it has spread far beyond whatever they can remove.
- 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.
- And 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.
Artie, I'm not ready to talk about being caretaker...
- Oh, no, no, it's not about being caretaker.
- I'm gonna to find a way to save Mrs. Frederic,
The regents are gonna get here-- - It's about something else--
Would you please listen to me?
The dna that slowed down
The decomposition of the bronze...
[sighs]
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.
- Wh--what? No. That doesn't--um...
Claire was killed-- claire was killed
In the car accident that killed my parents.
Joshua told me about it. I've been to their graves.
- Claudia...
Your sister is alive.
- The last time your artifact "cured" people,
You murdered! - This is 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. [laughs]
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--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 the person's consciousness from their body.
- It would be like killing. It's what you want.
Do this, and I will 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.
- God, that must've been so nice.
- Listen, it's not that simple, Claudia. Could you listen--
- Does Joshua know?
Does--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's compass, so I knew...
Before I met you.
[heart monitor beeping]
- No, sir, ms. Bering is still in surgery.
- What? No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
She--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 can--
- No, never mind. It's just I was gonna ask her if--
Just never mind. Thanks.
I know what to do.
Okay. I got 'em. All right?
Thing from hippocrates's 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.
- Wha--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, look, 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.
[artifacts clatter] - No.
I can't. I can't. I can't.
Okay? I--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 could 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. - It's a lie.
- No, no--
- 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.
[inhaling]
- Oh, god. That didn't happen when you used it on--
What the hell?
- No, it didn't.
- How did you get--
Ah!
- When the stone is used in proximity to the eldunari,
The caretaker's link to the Warehouse
Is increased exponentially.
- Oh, yeah, that eldunari in the Warehouse--
That's a pretty good trick.
But it's not gonna stop me
From kicking your-- aah!
[grunts]
Aah!
[grunts]
- I am now in complete control of the Warehouse.
Hey, thank you so much.
It will be very useful for my future endeavors.
This is my house now!
[rumbling]
- Artie?
Artie!
Artie! Something bad-- something really bad.
- Paracelsus.
His connection's even stronger now.
This is it. This is the end.
- Oh, what are you doing?
- Oh, my god.
- The ribbon...
Wasn't strong enough to disconnect Paracelsus.
- Otherwise you could still disconnect Mrs. Frederic.
- I'm so sorry.
- The choice was this or death. Thank you, Claudia.
- That means that-- that Mrs. Frederic is...
- No longer the caretaker.
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.
- [screams]
[crash]
- Oh, my god. - Pete, are you all right?
- No. Definitely not.
Mrs. F, are you all right?
- I've seen better days, Agent Lattimer.
- Ah!
- It's Paracelsus.
He's--he's literally trying to chase us out of the Warehouse.
Guys, we've got to get out of here.
- No, no, no, no, the umbilicus was cut off by the quake.
- We need another exit. Come on.
- There are other exits, right?
- Follow me!
- It's my house now!
- Up there. The way out.
- Let's go, let's go!
- I-I-I can't go.
- Claude?
- 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 have to stay and fight Paracelsus.
- No. No, it's too dangerous.
- Artie, you have made enough calls about my safety.
I am deciding this one.
I'm--I'm sorry. Listen to me.
- Claude!
- 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.
- [panting]
- I--you know I--
Very much--
- I know. Me too.
You have to go.
- Claude...
Claude, 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.
