00:00How long has this place been closed?
00:04Uh, the last inmates left about two years ago.
00:07Too weird.
00:08No such thing as too weird.
00:11So what is it we're supposed to do?
00:12Well, the exercise is called using light and shadow to create suspense.
00:17And you and Bess are going to wander around in there to create the suspense
00:20while I get some killer footage from my demo reel.
00:24Okay.
00:30Let's roll.
00:32The Ving Institute for the Criminally Insane.
00:36For over a hundred years, this asylum was home to some of the most seriously deranged
00:41and dangerous individuals in our society.
00:44Little Timmy Osgood, who carried his girlfriend's head around in a shopping bag.
00:49The Cotter twins who set fires that killed 90 people.
00:52You've got to be kidding.
00:54What?
00:55Just keep reading.
00:56If you were dangerously deranged, you ended up at the Ving
01:00and were left there to rot for the rest of your days.
01:06Excellent.
01:08And that last look was especially good.
01:10Okay.
01:12Let's go.
01:13Oh, boy.
01:17Just like Nance, always prepared.
01:19Okay.
01:19This is trespassing.
01:32I asked permission.
01:33They refuse.
01:34What am I supposed to do?
01:36Relax, Bess.
01:37The place is going to be torn down in a month.
01:40Just think of this as a day spent with the ghosts of the criminally insane.
01:44Wa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
01:46Oh, my God.
02:16Oh, my God.
02:46Man, I just about jumped into my skin.
02:51Scott Humphreys, investigative journalist.
02:53Really? What paper?
02:54Actually, I sell stuff to the tabloids.
02:58Oh, don't apologize.
03:00So did you do all the damage?
03:02Yeah. I'm trying to find a way into the catacombs.
03:06Catacombs?
03:06Yeah, there's a maze of tunnels and passageways under this building.
03:09They sealed it all up after the riot.
03:10Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
03:13Okay.
03:14Now tell me about the riots.
03:16Well, five years ago,
03:18two inmates barricaded themselves into the catacombs
03:21and were never seen again.
03:22The real reason they closed the asylum.
03:24So what happened to those two inmates?
03:26There was a big cover-up.
03:27Theory was they escaped,
03:29but I like to think that they died down there.
03:32Or better yet,
03:33they're still roaming around the tunnels.
03:35According to the legend,
03:48there were three entranceways somewhere along the north wall.
03:50I hear they broke them up.
03:52Where'd you hear all this?
03:54From former inmates.
03:56Most of them were transferred to a nearby institution.
03:58I've been working my way along the past couple of nights.
04:10But so far,
04:11no luck.
04:17What was that?
04:17What was that?
04:18Someone else is here.
04:38The stretcher,
04:39it was on the other side of the hall before.
04:41The chair was never on it.
04:43Why would someone do that?
04:44I don't know.
04:45It's almost as if someone's trying to hide this wall.
04:49I'll bet there's something behind this.
04:51Now that's crazy, Hans.
04:53It's new.
04:54I mean, relatively speaking,
04:55five or six years old.
04:56The texture of the plaster's different.
04:59Stand back.
05:15There's something behind it.
05:27There's something behind it.
05:37Time will never reveal my treasure.
06:01Whoever wrote this wrote the same thing over and over again.
06:05This is scary.
06:10You know, I think this used to be a janitorial room.
06:13Yeah, there was a large sink here.
06:15See the marks?
06:16Give me some light.
06:26You found it.
06:28Looks like some kind of ventilation shaft.
06:30And there's a ladder.
06:35Now we can get down?
06:46Oh, time out.
06:47We?
06:48I think you guys should stay up here.
06:49It could be dangerous.
06:50Oh, why?
06:51You think we're going to find some inmates still running around there after five years?
06:54I don't know what I'll find.
06:56Well, we'll find Scott.
06:57We're going with you.
07:01What do you need that for?
07:03I'm not wandering around down there without protection.
07:08I'm off to explore the secret catacombs, home of escaped inmates.
07:24Maybe never to be seen again.
07:39What now?
07:50I got a compass.
07:52These tunnels are supposed to go on for miles.
07:56Wait a minute.
07:57We're going to wander around down here?
08:01I don't believe this.
08:23We'll go west first.
08:31We'll go west.
09:01We'll go west.
09:03Who's that?
09:05We're in whom?
09:07I need to stop.
09:08You guys hang tight for a sec, Elsa.
09:10Check it out.
09:23Scott?
09:25Scott, what are you doing?
09:28Where'd he go?
09:31Scott?
09:32Come on.
09:33Why don't we just go back to the lab and wait for him?
09:38Did I mention I'm claustrophobic?
09:43Scott?
09:44Scott?
09:45Scott?
09:46Scott?
09:47Where are you?
09:49Scott?
09:50Scott?
09:51Where are you?
09:52Where are you?
09:53Perhaps the time bandits already found what he's looking for.
10:05No one's gonna steal my treasure.
10:06No one's gonna steal my treasure.
10:08wild burn.
10:09You know?
10:10No one's gonna steal my treasure.
10:11I'm gonna steal my treasure.
10:12A crazy treasure.
10:13Do you know you're gonna kill me?
10:14I'm gonna steal my treasure.
10:15Oh good, I'm gonna steal my treasure!
10:16Come back, come back, come back!
10:46Turn off your light.
11:04Come on, Nance!
11:14Okay, I think we lost him.
11:35Who do you think he was?
11:37Oh, he said something about time and a treasure, and then that writing on the wall upstairs, time will never reveal my treasure.
11:44If you ask me, I think he's our friend from the janitorial room.
11:48Do you think he was an inmate?
11:53Hey, what happened to you? How come you ditched us down here?
11:56Hey, relax. I've been looking all over for you.
11:58Was that before or after you were looking for the treasure?
12:01What treasure?
12:03Come on, Scott. We ran into the treasure's owner.
12:06Big guy, beard, very bad attitude.
12:09Walter's here?
12:11Walter?
12:12Look, Scott, we know he was an inmate on janitorial duty.
12:20He was probably transferred from this facility when it was shut down to another one, the same one where you were interviewing inmates.
12:25That's where you got wind of the treasure.
12:27What treasure? Walter is as crazy as a loon. Nancy, you're taking this far too seriously.
12:33Well, Walter must have something since Scott's taking it so seriously.
12:38The only thing I don't understand is why did he tell you about it?
12:41He's always talking about it, you know? Day in, day out. I thought I'd go crazy just listening to him.
12:46A journalist who visits a patient day in and day out? Oh my God, you're a patient too.
12:52I am nothing like them. I picked up after them. I cleaned their stinking cells.
13:01Unorderly.
13:02Right.
13:03Enough talk.
13:07You're gonna help me find whatever it is he hid down here.
13:10And what about Walter?
13:11Well, we'll just have to beat him to it. I've come this far. I'm not giving up now.
13:18Scott, is that you?
13:21Scott, if we tell you where the treasure is, will you let us go?
13:24What?
13:25We know where it is. We found it. We were on our way back, but we don't care about it anymore, right?
13:31No.
13:32All we want is to get out of here.
13:34You better not be lying to me.
13:35I'm not. Come on, it's not far from here.
13:39Go. Move.
13:42Go.
13:43It's right in here. Up the ladder.
13:47Go first.
13:49I'm caught on something.
14:03a little bit.
14:04Go first.
14:05Run. Run!
14:06Get out of here, guys!
14:08Run! Run!
14:10Get out of here, guys!
14:12Run! Run!
14:13Run!
14:15Get out of here, guys!
14:17Get out of here, Pat!
14:28Here's the way we came in.
14:36It's shut. I can't move it.
14:39What are we gonna do now?
14:41Find another way out.
14:47Are you hard, Scott? All of the entrances are sealed.
14:53Ah, Nance, remember that claustrophobia I mentioned?
14:57It's really starting to kick.
14:59Okay, uh, Bess, we gotta stay calm if we wanna find a way out of here, right?
15:03Right, okay. So follow me.
15:06Follow.
15:07Follow.
15:09Are you sure we haven't already been down here?
15:17This looks very familiar to me.
15:19Shh.
15:21What is it?
15:23I don't know, it's... insects?
15:27Teeth chattering?
15:29Clocks.
15:39All the time in the universe.
15:42We'll give you watches.
15:44Warts.
15:45Very bad for you.
15:58Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock.
16:05Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock.
16:12Now that's real time.
16:15Quartz is a part of the conspiracy.
16:18What conspiracy?
16:19To take our time away.
16:21Once the entire world is on Quartz, they can just speed up the frequency.
16:26We'll all live faster, die younger, make less fuss.
16:31That's what they want.
16:33Who's they?
16:34People like Scotty. He's one of them.
16:37I told him my secret, and one day he just left the hospital.
16:40Right after they told me that I could leave soon.
16:45Scotty!
16:47Scotty!
16:52I think it's safe now.
17:01Listen.
17:04I don't understand.
17:22I was on janitorial detail when I was inside.
17:25Got to move around a lot.
17:27Big move for visitors.
17:31Oh, pretty fair pickpocket.
17:34When I heard about the conspiracy, I just pitched right in, did my debt.
17:40Build up my own little lump of time down here, bit by bit over the years.
17:44And they closed the building.
17:47Moved us all away.
17:50A poor collection.
17:53No one's been tending them.
17:56A few more days, and this entire lump of time will melt away into nothing.
18:02Yikes.
18:03Help me.
18:04Help me.
18:05Some of these are very old, very expensive.
18:34It's just a shell.
18:35It's the time inside that matters.
18:41On the other hand, I'll take the ones that sparkle.
18:45See, there's nothing else down here worth keeping.
18:48Well, what did you expect?
18:50Shut up! Start separating them right now.
18:52The ones with the diamond, the little pile right here, solid gold right here.
18:55You get the idea.
18:56Yeah. Let's start with these.
19:00Nice going, Walter.
19:01Nice going, Walter.
19:06Nice going, Walter.
19:07Walter, you better get going before the police get here.
19:12What's the matter?
19:13My treasure.
19:14I know.
19:15The police will take it away when they come and get Scott.
19:20I'm sorry.
19:21It's too bad you couldn't take some of your favorites with you.

19:39The police will take it away when they come and get Scott.
