Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol

Da Vinci experimented with vibrations.

A dagger touched by the heavens.

Previously on The Lost Symbol...

We got to figure out what Blake's been up to.

He's been on the phone with Istanbul.

A long-range antipersonnel technology.

He could wipe out our accounts.

All those in favor

of turning the device over?

I'm his mother.

-You're my mother, too. -Then you need to leave.

He's hidden something in the barn.

My boy.

-Hey. -Hey, are you there yet?

I still got a half hour left.

Some bridge closed, and I got rerouted.

She's still not answering.

You said she never answers.

Yeah, uh, I did. I did say that.

Call me when you get there, and be careful.

-Will do. -Okay. Bye.

This muffle furnace tops out at 1,400 degrees Celsius.

Hot enough to turn anything to dust.

Including the pyramid, whatever it's made of.

What? W-Wait a minute. That would destroy it.

-Exactly. -I thought we were here to do X-rays on it

or run it through the mass spectrometer.

No. I'm done.

He's done.

We are going to stop him by obliterating the path

to the only thing he seems to care about.

What about what you care about?

Since this started, you've been talking

about the wisdom as if it was real.

I mean, God, l-look around. Everything you've built.

If this could, on some level, validate your theories,

then wouldn't you want to know?

You need to get your own material.

What?

I used that line on Warren to get him to help us.

Okay. Regardless, uh, the point is...

The point is, this isn't about me.

Admit it, it's you.

You've changed.

Now you're the one who needs to know.

I-I study history, I don't destroy it.

S-Sure, if there's something buried out there,

a-an ancient instruction manual, a psychic lesson plan,

h-however is it that this wisdom actually, tangibly presents,

then, yeah, I-I would like to see it.

So this is purely an academic pursuit for you.

Basically, yeah.

Then you'll get over it.

Your dad's gonna be here soon.

He's got ten minutes.

What?

Oh, no, it was nothing.

What?

I was just thinking this isn't the type

of "morning after" ritual couples usually engage in.

"Couples"?

Oh, you know what I mean.

We could not talk about it, if...

I mean, maybe not, like, right now.

Yeah, exactly. With-- Yeah.

Whenever. Or not, even.

Uh...

Dad...

I don't understand. It was at your mother's?

-He hid it there. -What?

Dad.

Mom knew he was alive.

She's the one who's been giving him money.

She's... she's known all along.

That can't be. She would never...

He's been manipulating her,

and she doesn't understand what he's become.

So now, we are going to destroy that pyramid,

and end this once and for all.

No.

I fear his plan is far more complex than we knew.

He has something.

So you handed over this device to him.

-I was outvoted. -Outvoted.

From what you've told us, this thing

could cause serious damage.

And if that comes to pass, I will be forced to live with it.

I think there may be another reason he wants it.

A device that creates vibrations,

I have to believe it's about resonance.

Exactly. He was writing about it in his journals.

Yes. -Vibrational phenomena,

cymatics, how sound can create patterns and...

And symbols.

The Leviathan Cross, the circumpunct.

Symbols have been opening doors all along.

It makes sense that the final door would be the same.

It's Nuñez.

Hey, you there yet?

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

What's going on? Did he talk to your mom?

No, he never made it.

He saw...

Zach testing the device, I think.

And it did something to him, to Nuñez.

He was bleeding from his ears and he blacked out.

-Is he all right? -He says he is. I don't know.

We can't destroy the pyramid now,

it gives him nothing to lose.

So what do we do next?

We get there first.

We find the ancient wisdom.

That is the way we stop him.

He's right.

Langdon, you have been trying to find it.

Over and over again.

Never with the three of us together.

Okay.

What was the last clue you guys figured out?

It was a pseudonym.

Uh, Isaacus Neutonuus.

-Newton. He was a Freemason? A Rosicrucian.

An alchemist.

Alchemy.

You said there was a clue about the 33rd degree?

"All will be revealed at the 33rd degree."

We used my 33rd degree ring to open the box

that revealed the Rose cross.

What if there's another meaning?

Temperature, on an older scale.

Not Fahrenheit or Celsius.

-The Newton scale. -And on the Newtonian scale,

the boiling point of water, which is the quintessential

alchemical process, occurs at...

33 degrees. Brilliant.

It's telling us to boil it.

Look, the capstone. Something's happening.

"Eight Franklin Square."

The pyramid has its alchemy, and we three, it appears,

have our own.

Let's look up the address.

I think I know how to end this.

So, your son's gone from kidnapper

to murderer to domestic terrorist.

And now, thanks to this Leviathan group,

he has classified government technology.

So you understand, Mr. Solomon,

every one of your members will be held accountable for this.

-Even you. So be it.

But right now, I am just here to help you apprehend

-the real threat. Don't take this the wrong way,

but you don't look like you're in a position to help anyone.

I assume you know why he's doing this.

The portal. It's been a topic of curiosity here for years.

Never put any stock in it, personally.

Others have developed a bit of a fetish.

It doesn't matter if you think it's real.

-Mal'akh does. -And how is it

you're going to help us catch him?

They figured out where it is.

We'll give you the location.

You'll use it to lure him and, uh, take him out.

Okay. Where is it?

We have a condition. -Hmm?

If we unearth this wisdom, whatever form it takes,

-we share it. -With whom?

-Everyone. We go public.

Demystify it.

You'd be acting against your sacred oath.

If we make it public, then no one will ever again

mount such a destructive mission to find it.

If you truly believe there's a power in this wisdom,

what's to prevent others using it for evil?

I have to believe that, in the end,

the good in us will triumph.

You're being naïve.

-Deal. -Charlene.

Oh, let's face it, Ellison,

you've become obsessed with this.

In some ways you're no better than this Mal'akh.

I need to focus on what's real here,

and in this case, it's eliminating the threat.

So how do we tip him off about the location?

Don't suppose you have his number?

No.

But he has ours.

Sounds nice.

Kind of like a cosmic cowbell.

This is the vibration written of

in the Vedic Brahmanas.

The frequency of creation.

That'll work, too.

Okay. The frequency is locked and loaded.

Chatter on the network.

The Almas Temple.

8 Franklin Square.

Where are you going?

To end it.

Hero 1 to Sandman, what is your status?
