00:06The following program is rated 14-plus and may contain coarse language, violence, nudity,
00:11mature subject matter, or scenes which may not be suitable for all viewers.
00:14Viewer discretion is advised.
00:18These do not appear to be serious scholars.
00:21Smart people don't have to wear robes anymore.
00:23Some of the sharpest kids in the city come here to study.
00:25I was only 15 when I took my first course at Oxford.
00:28I knew we'd get to you somehow.
00:30I just think your campaign to bring me up to date in modern science is a little bit silly.
00:34I was considered quite the dimba-damber in astronomy circles.
00:37As Galileo said, I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
00:42Yeah, well, we've learned a lot since your time.
00:44You may have shiny new facts at your disposal, but you will never know the thrill of living in an
00:48era of pure scientific inquiry,
00:51the days of Morrie and Dalton, when gifted amateurs lit the way.
00:54But science isn't about nostalgia. It's about looking forward.
00:57There have been huge discoveries in the last 170 years.
01:01This is why this is a good opportunity for you.
01:04Rosalind Kirch is a genius.
01:06Look over there.
01:08That is where she developed her hypothesis on interstellar dust and active galactic nuclei.
01:13Just sitting under a tree, watching the oil droplets in her tea.
01:17And?
01:17And then boom!
01:20Scientific inspiration.
01:21It's a famous story.
01:24And riveting, I'm sure.
01:31She was at Stanford when I was doing my first master's.
01:34Her work on quasars was a real inspiration to me.
01:37Quasars?
01:38Yeah, a supercluster of stars discovered in the 1950s.
01:41Dr. Kirch found a way to use them to predict celestial events, like black holes.
01:45It's all about predicting with you, isn't it?
01:56These are your seats, seven and eight, row three.
02:03You're welcome.
02:04You did that, um, charmingly.
02:08All I did was show you your seats.
02:17You're welcome.
02:17You did that, um, charmingly.
02:17I think she fancies me.
02:19Do you want to know another discovery in the last 170 years?
02:22Hmm.
02:23Creepy staring, not sexy.
02:27This must be recent.
02:31Thank you all for being here to celebrate the restoration of the Kutuzov Telescope.
02:36Now, the committee that raised the funds for all of this was led by today's speaker.
02:40So, please welcome back to our campus one of the world's preeminent astrophysicists, Dr. Rosalind Kirch.
02:51Thank you, Dr. Stenaris.
02:53And thank you for the tour of the new observatory.
02:56What a privilege to be back on campus as a visiting professor.
02:59This is where I first developed my hypothesis on X-ray omission as a predictor of an accreting black hole
03:04system.
03:05I remember it like it was yesterday.
03:07I was sitting out on Observatory Hill, and I...
03:13Oh.
03:26Am I still...
03:28Where was I?
03:30You were talking about the day that you formed your galactic nuclear hypothesis.
03:34Oh.
03:37You'll have to forgive me.
03:38I don't think I'll be able to.
03:42Dr. Kirch is extremely jet-lagged.
03:45Oh.
03:45Give us a moment, please.
03:48That's fine.
04:04She has one of the sharpest minds I've ever known.
04:06To see her have a neurocognitive episode is just upsetting.
04:09Yeah. We went through the same thing when my grandfather started off with him forgetting to shut the refrigerator. Before
04:14you knew it, he didn't even recognize us.
04:16You've got to appreciate being young. Aging is no picnic.
04:19This was not a product of age. I believe that she was under a spell.
04:24He's the librarian, therefore he thinks everything must be magic. You know the saying, when all you have is a
04:29hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
04:30She froze, then shuddered. A tale-tale sign of memory theft. There are powerful artifacts that could cause this.
04:38Talon of Hydrolath.
04:39That is one, but that is already in the library. I recovered that one myself.
04:45Ooh. Perhaps a tally-stick.
04:49We don't have to ascribe everything to the supernatural or being possessed by demons. Dementia is a normal and sad
04:56part of aging.
04:58Hmm.
04:59Or a santage could have pronounced an incantation over that poor woman.
05:03Is anyone going to help me out here?
05:08It's been so sluggish lately.
05:10So, according to Elaine's instructions, I gave it a tarnished bath and realigned its mercury cup and ball weight.
05:17Now, why is it doing that?
05:29The College of Science Observatory.
05:32As I suspected.
05:34Thanks a lot.
05:35So, magic in the neighborhood, huh?
05:38Let's not jump to conclusions.
05:39This could be something else unrelated to Dr. Kirch.
05:41Kind of a coincidence, though, don't you think?
05:43What I saw wasn't supernatural.
05:45It was human.
05:46And sad.
05:47Some aberration has occurred to this woman.
05:49Now, I've trained myself to be observant.
05:51To remember details.
05:52Well, I don't need to remember.
05:54I got it right here.
06:02I remember it like it was yesterday.
06:05I was sitting on Observatory Hill, and I was...
06:12Wait a minute.
06:13Did you see that?
06:15Use my AI Enhanced 3D program.
06:20Very cool.
06:31Don't.
06:36Well, we need to talk to the victim and investigate what is happening at the Observatory.
06:52That's it.
06:58The solution to the Bolkansky Millennial Prize problem.
07:01I believe it is.
07:02You came to me in a flash last night.
07:06Uh...
07:07Lysa Pascal.
07:08I was in your graduate seminar at Stanford.
07:10Ah, yes, of course.
07:12You did a thesis on applied predictive models based on galactic motion.
07:16Yeah.
07:16That was me.
07:18We came to see your lecture yesterday, but we were just a bit concerned when you had...
07:23Had my little brain cram.
07:24Yeah.
07:25Dr. Cenari said I was trying to tell a story of how I developed my quasar hypothesis while drinking tea.
07:30Apparently everybody knows that anecdote but me.
07:32I can't remember a thing about it.
07:34But now this.
07:35The solution to a problem proposed 25 years ago.
07:39A solution that we all believed would still be decades in the future.
07:43And yet.
07:47That poor woman.
07:48Some sort of infernal malediction has robbed her of that important memory from her past.
07:53She can't be that badly affected.
07:54She was able to solve the Bolkansky problem.
07:56Not badly affected.
07:58One of her most cherished memories, gone.
08:01Not to be rude or anything, but maybe you're overvaluing memory a little.
08:04I mean, imagine all that brain space could be used for, I don't know, achieving something.
08:07Do you know what your problem is?
08:09The problem with this whole modern world is you don't give a tinker's damn what's going on in here.
08:15Or in here.
08:16No, you've given it away to your little machines.
08:19No need to think.
08:21To know.
08:21To remember.
08:22Anything.
08:23No, you're hollowed out.
08:25A list of achievements, and even that's in here.
08:27And soon, very soon, these little contraptions will be feeling for you.
08:32No, I for one would not trade a single memory of mine for gold nor glory.
08:36I sat down and I couldn't remember anything.
08:40I couldn't even remember going to class.
08:42Yes.
08:43What's your name again?
08:52My lady.
08:55We met.
08:56Last night.
08:58Did we?
08:59Yes.
08:59Yes.
09:00You showed me to my seat.
09:01We had a moment.
09:04I'm sorry, but I honestly don't remember you.
09:12Forget me.
09:14Impossible!
09:15This can only be some sort of foul necromancy.
09:18This spell, this curse is spreading.
09:22We have no time to lose.
09:27We tracked down the students we saw in guy's statements.
09:29Hmm.
09:30A few more confusion cases popped up in the campus health clinic.
09:33We also spoke to the usher.
09:34The ones who can remember have one thing in common with Dr. Courage.
09:38Y'all been to the observatory lately?
09:39Bullseye.
09:40We've identified the locus of this vile, pestilential phenomenon.
09:43Now, we must root out the noisome, feculent, fetid, vile...
09:46You already said vile.
09:49Yucky perpetrators.
09:52Ow!
09:54He is on one.
09:58Some bounder is obviously abusing magic.
10:00And just remember, our purpose is the identification and retrieval of any potential artifacts.
10:04Not beating up bad guys.
10:06It may not be our purpose, but it's the figgy pudding of it.
10:08And my job is to keep you out of that concept.
10:10I'm with Charlie.
10:11Let's get the lay of the land before we get confrontational.
10:14And by confrontational, you mean...
10:15Violent.
10:16I was not made for these times.
10:19Hey, Vic.
10:20Yes, Zach.
10:22Um...
10:23I just wanted to apologize for earlier if I upset you.
10:27I was not upset.
10:28I was insensitive.
10:30Look, I can't imagine what it must be like to be in your shoes.
10:33I mean, you're here and memories are all that's left of your world, so...
10:37I really am sorry.
10:38My world still exists.
10:41In here.
10:43So, there's no need to apologize, Anya.
10:46Lysa.
10:48That's what I said.
10:49Um, the astronomy department office is chock-a-block with rare curios.
10:52Any one could be our artifact.
10:54You and Connor reconnoiter what's in there.
10:56See if any of the magical artifacts we're looking for are there.
10:59And Charlie and I will try to root out the potential abusers.
11:04Non-confrontationally.
11:05Of course.
11:24May I help you?
11:26Uh, we're just admiring the collection.
11:28Do you work here?
11:28I'm Dr. Stanaris' teaching assistant.
11:31As well as the astronomy department archivist.
11:34Archivist?
11:35Yeah.
11:36So, you're responsible for finding and bringing in these pieces?
11:42Who did you say you were again?
11:47Dr. Stanaris!
11:49Yes?
11:51It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
11:53I was at the presentation last evening.
11:55Ah.
11:56You're an astronomy buff.
11:57Or professional in the field.
11:59Well, let's just say I'm an accomplished amateur.
12:02Have you heard of the Imperial Astronomical Society?
12:04Yeah, from the early 19th century.
12:06Didn't they disband back in the early Victorian era?
12:10Yes.
12:11Well, we've relaunched it.
12:13Oh.
12:13Well, so you're a gentleman stargazer of the old school.
12:16Well, you appear to be of the old school yourself.
12:19This star cartography is from the 1500s.
12:22You have a fine eye.
12:26It's for my pet project about Shakespeare's understanding of the cosmos.
12:29Ah.
12:29It is not in the stars to hold our destiny.
12:32Not in ourselves?
12:34Hmm.
12:35But also a poet.
12:36Well, poets and astronomers, we seek the same thing.
12:39A larger view of the universe.
12:40Well said.
12:41I must say, I find your Shakespeare project fascinating.
12:45Well, it grew out of my belief that the Big Bang not only created matter and antimatter, but is also
12:50the source behind great heart.
12:51Hmm.
12:52Big Bang.
12:54You have a way with a phrase, Professor.
12:56Please, tell me more.
12:58Oh.
12:59Well.
13:00It's really amazing, don't you think?
13:01In my astrolabe and the Adelaide online community, we call them the smartphones of antiquity.
13:10Looking after all of these important objects must be a real responsibility.
13:19Is this where you, uh, keep the paperwork?
13:26Well, yeah.
14:00Oh, I already told you, I'm a friend of Dr. Kerch's. I'm just interested in the collection.
14:05Well, it just seems like you were looking for something.
14:07No?
14:08I am wondering why you're sweating so much.
14:11Sweating? Me? No.
14:12Hey.
14:13Um, I just remembered.
14:15We have to go meet Uncle Vic.
14:17What?
14:18Now.
14:19Oh!
14:20Yeah, sorry.
14:21We gotta go.
14:22Bye.
14:22See you soon, Navy.
14:24Yo, you run, run.
14:28These are the Culpepper papers.
14:30The originals.
14:31The Culpepper papers?
14:32Nicholas Culpepper was a 17th century artifact collector.
14:34As soon as I saw what they were, I thought they might tell us something.
14:36Of course!
14:37The crystal of Dr. John Dee.
14:39Culpepper was once its owner.
14:41Well, slow down.
14:41Yeah.
14:42Who is Dr. John Dee?
14:43He was the court magician to Queen Elizabeth I.
14:46A genius.
14:47A true renaissance man.
14:48During the actual renaissance.
14:49And Dee used the crystal to communicate to the angels and divine the future.
14:52A major magical artifact.
14:54I think it's in a London museum.
14:55So wait, what does this have to do with our case?
14:57Ah, the legend is that Dee saw something that made him lose his mind.
15:00He no longer knew who he was, didn't recognize his family, couldn't function.
15:04He lost his memory.
15:09Whoa.
15:11What?
15:13It's not just the Culpepper papers.
15:15These are the writings of John Dee himself dated 1588.
15:18Culpepper says that they are always to accompany the crystal.
15:20It's basically an instruction manual.
15:22Right, so they're fragile.
15:24We need to go and take them somewhere and read them carefully.
15:26There's just one problem.
15:28It's written in Enochian.
15:30You're losing me again.
15:32It's a language Dee invented.
15:33He got it from the angels.
15:34Yeah, and it's not just basic Enochian.
15:36It's high Enochian.
15:36There are maybe three people on earth who know how to translate it.
15:39No.
15:42There are four.
15:46The crystal is rendered harmless at which hour to contain in the necklace.
15:50But once loose, it hath the power to grant a single willed glimpse here.
15:55Cost behests a single moment of the past.
15:5721st century version, please.
15:59The crystal is rendered harmless when it is contained in its necklace setting.
16:03But once it is taken out, it hath the power to grant a single desired glimpse into the future.
16:10The cost being a single memory.
16:12And then it refers to amplifying or expanding the power of the crystal.
16:16The crystal is behest amplified to the pointeth where the past is cleared.
16:20Hence, the knowledge of the future is limitless.
16:24The past is cleared.
16:25Does it say how the crystal can be amplified?
16:29Hmm.
16:29It can emit spectral particulates.
16:32The rest of the instructions appear to be missing.
16:36I just checked with my old contacts in the illegal procurement world, and the word is that the de-crystal
16:41was stolen, along with those papers from the London Science Museum a few weeks back.
16:44They've been keeping it under wraps because of all the superstition.
16:47Hmm.
16:50Let us roll.
16:54Right, no more namby-pamby.
16:56The papers are here.
16:57The crystal has got to be here.
16:58I'm gonna confront these gentlemen and force them to acknowledge the call.
17:01Whoa, whoa, whoa.
17:02We don't know that they're both in on it.
17:03You said your man was acting suspicious.
17:05Oh, yeah.
17:05He was sweating.
17:06The daughter Daenerys was as odd as a duck mole.
17:08At the very least, they know something, and we are gonna wring it out of them.
17:11We can't force them to do anything.
17:13All right?
17:13We're not the police.
17:14But I'm the librarian, and they are abusing a very powerful magical artifact.
17:18Now, we have tried your ever-so-fashionable non-confrontation belly wash, but now we'll do things my way.
17:27Once I put the screws to them, these fellows will be discouraged from any further traffic of magical artifacts, not
17:32to mention robbery.
17:34When you say put the screws to them, you don't really need screws, do you?
17:37I want information.
17:38Their violence is the last resort.
17:39Oh, we have tried the first resort.
17:41What? First resort? Last resort? Second resort?
17:43We know it's them. We know they have the crystal somewhere.
17:45We still don't know what they're getting at of this.
17:53That is a nice car for a teaching assistant.
17:56This vehicle. Expensive?
17:57Very.
17:59You two, find Daenerys and bring him to the office.
18:02These gentlemen are about to receive a proper buffeting.
18:10Yeah, yeah. It's my new car.
18:13Nice car. It's really nice.
18:17Have we been peering into the future?
18:19Maybe wagering a whist or a hazard deck.
18:21Perhaps the trotters.
18:25Are you with the police?
18:26No, but you do have something that we're going to need back.
18:51We are going to recover that crystal.
18:54What crystal? I don't know anything about any crystal.
18:57But if we don't have the crystal, then why are you running away?
18:59I don't know.
19:03The light of barn, you make this stop.
19:05I can't remember how to drive.
19:12Tell me how to make it stop.
19:14Oh, okay.
19:16Well, pull back with your hands and push down with your feet like a horse.
19:28It's not in here either.
19:35You must have gone home for the day.
19:37You must have gone home for the day.
19:43Call Connor.
19:51So it's the man who hates cell phones.
19:53Hello, Connor. Yes.
19:54It's Vikram.
19:55Yes, I need advice.
19:57How do you stop a motorized carriage?
20:00We have an issue.
20:09No, nothing that moves like a key.
20:12Do something!
20:35What is going on?
20:53Oh, God.
20:58God.
21:01Brilliant work, Charlie.
21:06What were you thinking?
21:08Do something stupid like that.
21:09I don't know.
21:11He seemed to forget how to pilot the carriage.
21:13He must be under the spell.
21:14The spell.
21:18What about you?
21:21Are you okay?
21:22Charlie?
21:29Who are you people?
21:35You are my guardian.
21:36Sent by the library.
21:38How do you know about the library?
21:40Because I'm the librarian.
21:41Well, hey, librarian.
21:43Do you remember how you got the money?
21:45I've just had a clairvoyant moment.
21:48I saw a roulette wheel with two numbers.
21:52So I went to the casino and put all my money on those numbers.
21:57I'm not a guardian.
21:59I didn't make the cut.
22:00Initially, but then Jacob Stone contacted you.
22:06It was like I could see the future.
22:09It felt like cheating.
22:10I was afraid someone was going to come after me.
22:12So that is why you were acting so suspiciously.
22:15It seemed like you knew my secret.
22:24How's it going?
22:27She has a complete blank from right before Stone called up until about an hour ago.
22:31Hasn't met us.
22:32Isn't sure how she got here.
22:33That's two months.
22:34He only forgot how to drive.
22:36Well, she was obviously exposed after him.
22:37So it's getting stronger.
22:39What else did we learn?
22:40Philip says that Stenaris traveled to London on the weekend of the 18th.
22:43That's the weekend the crystal was stolen.
22:45Can't be a coincidence.
22:46So, Stenaris is the malefactor.
22:48Where is the crystal?
22:50He thinks he knows where it might be.
22:52The vault is in the building.
22:54Downstairs.
22:55Let's go.
22:57We're going to need you.
22:59So you know about the library.
23:03You could be an enemy.
23:05You could be using magic to try and co-opt me.
23:08You know, Eve Baird may have thought that I wasn't ready.
23:10And maybe I'm not.
23:12But I am still loyal to the library.
23:15Take him inside.
23:17See about this vault.
23:22The fact that the library even considered you as a possible guardian means you must have better instincts than that.
23:26I am not an enemy of the library.
23:29A powerful spell has taken a portion of your memory, and that portion includes us.
23:33I cannot give you back your actual memories, but what I can do...
23:37I can tell you what you need to know.
23:39So you can be part of our team again.
23:43Uh, I'm not allowed in here without Dr. Stenaris.
23:46It can only be opened with his retinal scan.
23:50This is one I've never cracked before.
23:52How do you know so much about breaking an enemy?
23:54Well, there isn't an app on the internet for discovering magical secrets.
24:04Hmm.
24:07Move.
24:12which brings me up to the moment that you saved me from a runaway vehicle that all happened to me
24:19you don't think that you are guardian material because you do not remember what you've done
24:24over the past five weeks but i do i'm the librarian and you are my guardian even if on a
24:33trial basis
24:37got it sir hey guys come on
25:15here's another one from london
25:23seems to be from the court of elizabeth do you think you held the necklace and crystal
25:30the picture is changing to someone else
25:36does this mean what i think it means what do the translation say again about the crystal being
25:40amplified ah um the crystal is behest amplified to the point of where the past is cleared hence
25:47and the knowledge of the future is limitless the past is cleared hence not memories the actual past
25:53so dr kirsch didn't just lose the memory of coming up with her hypothesis it never happened
25:57someone else did it are you saying actual events have been wiped out history's been changed
26:02why would he want to do this oh he doesn't he wants the other part the limitless knowledge of the
26:08future
26:09oh he doesn't care about consequences he is what we call a remorseless monomaniac sociopath
26:14how is he amplifying the crystal the question is if his goal is to selfishly gain knowledge
26:19then why would he involve other people
26:23because he needs something from them in order to achieve his goal
26:26and memories
26:28magical causality
26:29it must get his power to look into the future by consuming people's memories
26:32correction by consuming the past
26:34and the more people that look through it the more powerful it becomes
26:36when did charlie look through the glass
26:38ah when stenerys and i were verbally jousting
26:40she looked through the telescope
26:42i also looked through the telescope
26:43so did dr kirch
26:45of course
26:46where else would you put a piece of glass people will look through
26:48it's just another lens
26:50thank you for saving me the trouble of explaining all that
26:55no
26:56you let us out of here
26:57you bounder
26:58sorry to keep you here like this
27:00but i have 20 undergraduates arriving for a stargazing session
27:04and once they've all looked at the andromeda galaxy
27:07the crystals should be fully amplified
27:09stenerys you have unleashed forces beyond your control
27:12you know what it's like for a man of my intellect to cast my pearls
27:16before swiney undergraduates
27:18while people like wosling kirsch get famous
27:20on stories of cups of tea and picnics
27:23now this is the story
27:25the greatest discovery of the history of science
27:28and my name will go down with copernicus
27:31galileo and sagan
27:32sagan
27:34think about the consequences of erasing history
27:37as a remorseless
27:38monomaniac
27:40let me just tell you
27:42i
27:43don't
27:44care
27:56it's not gonna work
27:57the door and frames case hardened steel
28:00but if the crystal is already overcharged
28:03then imagine what would happen once he sucked the memory of 20 more people
28:07zombie apocalypse
28:08it's actually worse than that
28:10when you change the past it takes time for those changes to catch up with you
28:13the past changed when dr kirch lost her memories
28:16but it took time for the causality changes to catch up with our timeline
28:19which is why the book and the painting are only changing now
28:22exactly
28:22i don't understand
28:24imagine time like a lake
28:26and we exist on its shore
28:27and the erased memory is like a pebble
28:30dropped in the center
28:31it takes time for the ripples to reach us
28:33so when charlie's timeline catches up with us she doesn't just forget
28:37but she never actually met us
28:39and if we never met her
28:41and no one saved you from the dracovac
28:42which would mean
28:44that on our current timeline we would all be
28:48dead
28:50thank you for coming
28:52next week we get to view the triffid nebula
28:55thank you dr stanaris
28:57that was incredible
28:59yes well it can be overwhelming
29:00so my advice is to go straight home
29:02but it's not possible
29:29and i think I can't speak through
29:30so my head HOPE
29:32thank you for describing
29:32No!
29:36No!
29:39No!
29:39Right!
29:40Panic is the enemy, hmm?
29:42Toujours équilibre!
29:44Toujours équilibre!
29:45Toujours équilibre!
29:45French isn't helping!
29:47Pardon.
29:48Who installed this vault?
29:50A security company.
29:51What kind of company?
29:52They specialize in banks, museums?
29:53Um, museums.
29:54I think.
29:55Yeah.
29:55Museum and art gallery systems usually have a fire override sensor to allow firefighters
30:00to enter a burning vault without having the passcode.
30:02I don't know anything about that, sorry.
30:04It wouldn't be out in plain sight like a smoke alarm.
30:10Over here.
30:13Ah!
30:14We could use this lens and find a strong enough light source,
30:18then perhaps the focus beam could generate enough heat and then...
30:28Nice.
30:31You're not coming.
30:32We could just use my lighter.
30:34Oh.
30:35Here.
30:38Tiny portable tinder box.
30:42Au revoir.
31:02There it is.
31:03There it is.
31:16Can I help you?
31:18Why, why are we here?
31:19You seem confused.
31:27What just happened?
31:30The D papers mentioned the crystal emitting spectral particulates.
31:33It must be overflowing with them.
31:35I remember running up the stairs and that's it.
31:37But you know who I am.
31:38Yeah.
31:39Then he pulled you out just in time.
31:40But when you were in it, you were rendered completely impotent.
31:42But why doesn't it affect Stonaris?
31:44I do not know.
31:45But we have to get that crystal away from him.
31:47There is only one choice.
31:50I must go in there and get it.
31:52What?
31:52Just like that?
31:53What makes you think you won't be rendered completely impotent?
31:56Me?
31:56I don't think you know what it's like, Vikram.
31:58I feel like I have a ten second hole in my brain.
32:00And who knows what it'll be like if you stay in there?
32:02Are you of all people willing to risk your memories?
32:05My mental discipline is unlike any other.
32:07Not that you're ordinary and not to gloat or bluster.
32:10But I believe I am our best chance.
32:12I don't like it.
32:13And I'm responsible for you.
32:15No.
32:17I am responsible.
32:19I'm the librarian.
32:21And my memories mean no more than any of yours.
32:24You three, go under the platform.
32:25See if you can lower the floor.
32:26Anything to get him away from that telescope.
32:28Okay.
32:41Stonaris!
32:56Well, how are you able to?
33:01I have trained my brain to silo thought away from my active mind.
33:06I can lock away what I need.
33:08And only give away useless memories to this pestiferous hex.
33:14Oh!
33:30Get the crystal.
33:44What's the most important thing in the world to you?
33:55And you...
33:58Stay...
34:00Stay with me...
34:07Did you forget something?
34:12The main controls are up there.
34:14Okay, well, this looks like a pretty standard servo motor.
34:16Yeah, it shouldn't be too hard to hard work.
34:18We should lower the floor to averse Daenerys from looking through the telescope.
34:21Guys?
34:28What's happening to me?
34:33She's disintegrating out of her timeline.
34:39You've got no time for this now.
34:54I could tell that you're different.
34:56You seem to have an esoteric knowledge almost for another time.
34:59I heard you talking in the vault about translating High Enokin.
35:03Well, only a handful of people know High Enokin.
35:05Unfortunately, I'm one of them.
35:07So I didn't leave any of the important papers lying around in the office for you to read.
35:13They explain how to amplify the crystal
35:16and how the necklace could give its wearer immunity from the unfortunate side effects.
35:24You just got to stay here, okay?
35:27Oh, my God.
35:28Okay, just stay present.
35:29Okay, Charlie, stay present, okay?
35:30You've got to fight this.
35:32Fight!
35:47What am I doing up here?
35:49What am I...
35:55You've got to stay, okay?
35:57You've got to stay.
35:58You've got to promise me, okay?
35:59Just stay here.
36:00We need you.
36:01We need you here, please.
36:02Please.
36:10So what was it?
36:12A woman.
36:17It's very interesting.
36:19You're in tremendous pain, but you can't seem to remember why.
36:23That is nothing compared to what I'm about to experience.
36:26For millennia, man has looked to the heavens to see the distant past.
36:30And I will be the first man to peer into the heavens and to see the future.
36:35I will know how the story of the universe ends.
36:38And I will publish.
36:53And the colors are even more beautiful than I think.
36:59Help!
37:01What are you doing?
37:03I don't know.
37:05I can't remember.
37:08Get away from there, you maniac.
37:10You're ruining everything.
37:11Somebody help me!
37:29Now I remember.
37:36What have you done?
37:38I'm not sure.
37:43Where am I?
38:01What is this?
38:03What is this?
38:34I know it sounds crazy.
38:36I don't think I was asleep, but I must have been dreaming because all of a sudden it seemed
38:40as if I were disappearing.
38:43And then it all came back to me.
38:45The moment on Observatory Hill when I developed my hypothesis.
38:50It's hard to explain.
38:52And I feel as if you and your friends had something to do with it.
38:55I'm so grateful.
38:57That was one of my most important memories.
39:00I never knew how much I valued my past until it was gone.
39:05I see that you erased the equation.
39:09You didn't think I'd write it down somewhere?
39:14I had to get rid of it.
39:16I don't know where it came from.
39:17And there was something about it I just didn't trust.
39:21Probably for the best.
39:23Some mysteries need to be revealed in time.
39:25And we can appreciate the implications.
39:28And scientific advancement should come through application of scientific method.
39:33And this answer came to me like magic.
39:36Well, I'm glad to hear that she's all right.
39:38Oh, we were able to check up on the students who'd been affected.
39:41It was mind-blowing, but they're no worse for wear.
39:43Most of them have forgotten their future visions.
39:45Though four of them have formed a jam band.
39:49Charlie, how are you feeling?
39:51Uh, all squared away, sir.
39:53You never told us your vision of the future.
39:56Or was that also forgotten when the effects were reversed?
40:00Uh, yes.
40:01Wiped out.
40:03Completely.
40:07Still impressed with how you were able to stave off the effects from the memory bubble.
40:11I couldn't have done it.
40:12My mental discipline is highly attuned and perfectly calibrated.
40:16That, and I had no memories to lose for 178 years, save a few weeks.
40:21I thought that might give me some advantage.
40:23And you saw Khan struggling and you needed to help him?
40:27Perhaps.
40:29Well, whatever it was, you were willing to risk what matters most to save us, so...
40:34As Descartes said,
40:36I think, therefore I am.
40:40But maybe...
40:42I remember.
40:45Therefore I am.
40:47Maybe that's the truth of it.
40:51Anyway!
40:53I feel safer knowing that this is all locked away and out of the hands of a pseudo-academic polymathic
40:58megalomaniac.
41:03Speaking of which, what do you think will happen to Dr. Stenaris?
41:08The reverse-amplified view of the universe provides us with a final answer.
41:14Copernicus and Galileo, they tell us nothing.
41:17Stephen Hawking?
41:19Hmm.
41:20Only I, Frederick Stenaris.
41:21I've viewed the future.
41:23And I'd still be viewing it now, if it wasn't for the interference of a crypto-cult organisation
41:29called The Library.
41:31And its fanatical, destructive operative, who calls himself The Librarian!
41:37No!
41:37And now, come over!
41:41Even I came to the zoo!
41:55Come over!
42:10We'll see you next time.
