Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol

Previously on "The Lost Symbol..."

Cascade is a long-range acoustic antipersonnel technology.

He was writing about it in his journals.

-Sound can create patterns and... -And symbols.

This is the frequency of creation.

Where is it? This portal that I've heard about.

It's not here. They played you.

This tells us the final location.

The Washington Monument.

I'm going to have to detain you, sir.

Hey, sis.

Oh, God.

Help! Help!

-God. Keep going.

Hello?

Keep going.

I can't see.

Open your eyes.

Oh, God.

Katherine!

So, thanks to a very helpful security guard,

we're together again.

You know, you really should have honored our agreement.

And you really should have honored ours.

Got to hand it to you.

You guys are smart.

You, your daughter, Langdon.

The three of you working together

to find the portal.

Impressive team.

So, did you figure it out?

Ask your questions.

You'll get nothing from me.

I know.

So why don't we let him take a run at you?

I'm not going in there. Keep moving.

No.

It's me, Zach.

It's Katherine.

Special K.

Zach, it's me.

You won't do it.

You tell that to your father.

And your mother.

What does that mean?

What did you do?

I took her last breath.

Then I laid her in the fire.

You will go into the tunnel...

...or you'll join her.

Do you know who I am?

No.

I know you.

Your story was told to me in the dark of Ag Gecidi.

You were the one in the prison.

You and I have much in common.

We're both teachers and fathers.

You were Zachary's.

I was Mal'akh's.

You did this to him.

I played my role, you played yours.

And what role do you play now?

CIA lackey?

I'm helping them to find the ancient wisdom.

And you are going to help, as well.

I withstood the torture of your student.

I'll withstand you.

Mm.

There are things I never showed Zachary.

But today I will show you.

He'll kill Katherine

if I don't bring Peter to the Monument,

but bringing Peter has its own risks.

He's the final instrument.

Might be moot anyway. He disappeared from the temple.

I have... I have no idea where he is.

I do.

Blake has him.

Blake?

Where?

Not far from here.

I'm not even supposed to know.

Adamu told me.

Thank you.

Well, can you get him out?

If he wants Peter as some kind of sacrifice...

I'll figure it out.

I just want to be clear about what you're suggesting.

I'm not suggesting anything. I...

I'm not gonna let that happen. I-I just need to get Peter

to the Monument to buy Katherine time.

The director has started sweeping up Leviathan members.

Wants to hang the Cascade thing around their neck.

-Good. -I'm pretty sure

they got the one that went after you

and Katherine at the cemetery. Name's Knopp.

Lobbyist.

Apparently, they found a stockpile

of gas grenades at his place.

I don't really care about any of this.

You should.

Might be exactly what we need.

Zachary shared things with me.

His anger.

His memories.

His life in your shadow.

His first instruction in death.

You'd taken him to a lake.

There was a bucket to catch minnows.

A pail, a tin pail. It was his sister's.

Do you remember what was in the bucket, Peter?

No.

You do.

You remember then as if it was now.

Because then...

...is now.

See it, Peter.

See me, Father.

-I just... -...found him like this.

I didn't do it.

It's not moving.

It's an owl.

It's a barn owlet.

It must have fallen from its nest.

-Is it dead? -Dead?

It is, yes.

I don't want it to be.

Bring it back.

Please, bring it back.

Zachary, I can't do that.

Yes, you can.

You die, and you come back.

You told me that.

We can take him to the portal.

Tell me where it is.

Tell me where the portal is.

Going on a trip, Dr. Osterman?

Your timing is a bit conspicuous.

Look, please,

I wanted no part of it.

-This is not what I stand for. -Relax.

I don't care.

I'm not CIA, but I need your help.

How'd you find me?

I read your puff piece in that tech magazine,

connected a few dots.

I've seen what that Cascade device can do.

I felt it.

He used it?

At a lake. Killed a bunch of fish,

made me bleed from my ears.

He'll do worse

if we don't figure a way to shut him down

or shut your weapon down.

Mr. York, let's take five.

Where'd he go?

I don't know.

What did you tell him?

I'm not sure.

Open the door!

Breathe.

You have come far, haven't you?

Why are you here?

You and I together,

seeking the stolen wisdom.

This was the plan.

Your plan was with Zachary,

whom you left in a cell to die.

Hmm.

Birth. Death.

Rebirth.

Do you not understand?

That was your final lesson.

And look at you now.

The angel. The messenger.

Mal'akh.

This tunnel will lead us to the Monument,

but this device.

What are you planning with it?

It will play the frequency of creation,

reveal the Lost Symbol upon the portal,

and the wisdom will come into me.

I did not teach you this.

I am not you!

Join with me.

I don't need you.

Then pass me.

Hang on.

Peter.

Where's Katherine?

We need to go.

-Good luck. -You, too.

Did you find Osterman?

Yeah. And get this.

I found out Mal'akh's got three of these things.

If they're all triangulated towards one spot,

it creates a safe zone

in the middle where they overlap,

but for everything outside that zone,

it creates what he called a resonance catastrophe.
