All language subtitles for The Librarians The Next Chapter S01E05[ 6981]

(Transcrito por TurboScribe.ai. Atualize para Ilimitado para remover esta mensagem.) These do not appear to be serious scholars.

Smart people don't have to wear robes anymore.

Some of the sharpest kids in the city

come here to study.

I was only 15 when I took my

first course at Oxford.

I knew we'd get to you somehow.

I just think your campaign to bring me

up to date in modern science is a

little bit silly.

I was considered quite the dimba-damba in

astronomy circles.

As Galileo said, I have loved the stars

too fondly to be fearful of the night.

Yeah, well, we've learned a lot since your

time.

You may have shiny new facts at your

disposal, but you will never know the thrill

of living in an era of pure scientific

enquiry, the days of Maury and Dalton when

gifted amateurs lit the way.

But science isn't about nostalgia.

It's about looking forward.

There have been huge discoveries in the last

170 years.

This is why this is a good opportunity

for you.

Roslyn Kirch is a genius.

Look over there.

That is where she developed her hypothesis on

interstellar dust and active galactic nuclei.

Just sitting under a tree, watching the oil

droplets in her tea.

And?

And then, boom!

Scientific inspiration.

It's a famous story.

And riveting, I'm sure.

She was at Stanford when I was doing

my first master's.

Her work on quasars was a real inspiration

to me.

Quasars?

Yeah, a supercluster of stars discovered in the

1950s.

Dr. Kirch found a way to use them

to predict celestial events, like black holes.

It's all about predicting with you, isn't it?

These are your seats, seven and eight, room

three.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

You did that charmingly.

All I did was show you your seats.

I think she fancies me.

Do you want to know another discovery in

the last 170 years?

Creepy staring, not sexy.

This must be recent.

Thank you all for being here to celebrate

the restoration of the Kutuzov telescope.

Now, the committee that raised the funds for

all of this was led by today's speaker.

So, please welcome back to our campus one

of the world's preeminent astrophysicists, Dr. Rosalind Kirch.

Thank you, Dr. Stenhouse.

And thank you for the tour of the

new observatory.

What a privilege to be back on campus

as a visiting professor.

This is where I first developed my hypothesis

on X-ray emission as a predictor of

an accreting black hole system.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

I was sitting out on Observatory Hill and

I...

Oh.

Am I still...

Where was I?

You were talking about the day that you

formed your galactic nuclear hypothesis.

Oh.

You'll have to forgive me.

I don't think I'll be able to.

Dr. Kirch is extremely jet-lagged.

Give us a moment, please.

She has one of the sharpest minds I've

ever known.

To see her have a neurocognitive episode is

just upsetting.

Yeah.

We went through the same thing when my

grandfather started off with him forgetting to shut

the refrigerator.

Before you knew it, he didn't even recognise

us.

You've got to appreciate being young.

Ageing is no picnic.

This was not a product of age.

I believe that she was under a spell.

He's the librarian, therefore he thinks everything must

be magic.

You know the saying, when all you have

is a hammer, every problem looks like a

nail.

She froze, then shuddered.

A telltale sign of memory theft.

There are powerful artefacts that could cause this.

The talon of Hydroloth.

That is one, but that is already in

the library.

I recovered that one myself.

Oh.

Perhaps a tally stick.

We don't have to ascribe everything to the

supernatural or being possessed by demons.

Dementia is a normal and sad part of

ageing.

Or, a Santaj could have pronounced an incantation

over that talon.

Is anyone going to help me out here?

It's been so sluggish lately.

So according to Elaine's instructions, I gave it

a tarnished bath and realigned its mercury cup

and ball weight.

Now why is it doing that?

The College of Science Observatory.

As I suspected.

That's a lot.

So, magic in the neighbourhood, huh?

Let's not jump to conclusions.

This could be something else unrelated to Dr.

Kirch.

Kind of a coincidence though, don't you think?

What I saw wasn't supernatural.

It was human and sad.

Some apparition has occurred to this boy.

Now I've trained myself to be observant.

To remember details.

Well, I don't need to remember.

I got it right here.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

I was sitting on Observatory Hill and I

was...

Wait a minute.

Did you see that?

Use my AI enhanced 3D programme.

Pretty cool.

Oooh.

Don't.

Oooh.

Well, we need to talk to the victim

and investigate what is happening at this observatory.

That's it.

A solution to the Borkansky Millennial Prize Problem.

I believe it is.

He came to me in a flash last

night.

Uh, Isa Pascal.

I was in your graduate seminar at Stanford.

Ah, yes, of course.

You did a thesis on applying predictive models

based on galactic motion.

Yeah, that was me.

We came to see your lecture yesterday, but

we were just a bit concerned when you

had...

Had my little brain cramp.

Yeah.

Dr. Sinari said I was trying to tell

a story of how I developed my quasar

hypothesis while drinking tea.

Apparently everybody knows that anecdote but me.

I can't remember a thing about it.

But now this.

The solution to a problem proposed 25 years

ago.

A solution that we all believed would still

be decades in the future.

And yet...

That poor woman.

Some sort of infernal malediction has robbed her

of that important memory from her past.

She can't be that badly affected.

She was able to solve the Borkansky Problem.

Not badly affected.

One of her most cherished memories is gone.

Now don't be rude or anything, but maybe

you're overvaluing memory a little.

I mean, imagine all that brain space could

be used for, I don't know, achieving something.

Do you know what your problem is?

The problem with this whole modern world is

you don't give a tinker's damn what's going

on in here.

Or in here.

No, you've given it away to your little

machines.

No need to think, to know, to remember

anything.

No, you're hollowed out.

A list of achievements, and even that's in

here.

And soon, very soon, these little contraptions will

be feeling for you.

And I for one will not trade a

single memory of mine for gold nor glory.

I sat down and I couldn't remember anything.

I couldn't even remember going to class.

What's your name again?

My lady.

We met last night.

Did we?

Yes, yes.

You showed me to my seat.

We had a moment.

I'm sorry, but I honestly don't remember you.

Forget me?

Impossible!

This can only be some sort of foul

necromancy.

This spell, this curse is spreading.

And we have no time to lose.

We tracked down the students we saw and

got statements.

A few more confusion cases popped up in

the campus health clinic.

We also spoke to the usher.

The ones who can remember have one thing

in common with Dr. Kirch.

We all been to the observatory lately?

Bullseye.

We've identified the locus of this vile, pestilential

phenomenon.

Now we must root out the noisy, infectious,

foetid, vile...

You already said vile.

Yucky perpetrators.

We've done one.

Some founder is obviously abusing magic.

And just remember, our purpose is the identification

and retrieval of any potential artefacts.

We're not feeding up bad guys.

It may not be our purpose, but it's

the figgy pudding of it.

And my job is to keep you out

of that kind of thing.

I'm with Charlie.

Let's get the lay of the land before

we get confrontational.

And by confrontational you mean...

Violence.

I was not made for these times.

Hey Vic, this is Beck.

Um, I just wanted to apologise for earlier

if I upset you.

I was not upset.

I was insensitive.

Look, I can't imagine what it must be

like to be in your shoes.

I mean, you're here and memories are all

that's left of your world, so...

I really am sorry.

My world still exists.

In here.

So, there's no need to apologise, Anya.

Lysa.

That's what I said.

Um, the astronomy department office is chock-a

-block with rare curios.

Any one could be our artefact.

You and Connor, reconnoitre what's in there.

See if any of the magical artefacts we're

looking for are there.

And Charlie and I will try to root

out the potential abusers.

Non-confrontationally.

Of course.

May I help you?

Uh, we're just admiring the collection.

Do you work here?

I'm Dr. Stonari's teaching assistant.

As well as the astronomy department archivist.

Archivist?

Yeah.

So, you're responsible for finding and bringing in

these pieces?

Who did you say you were again?

Dr. Stonaris.

Yes?

It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

I was at the presentation last evening.

Ah, you're an astronomy buff.

Or professional in the field.

Well, let's just say I'm an accomplished amateur.

Have you heard of the Imperial Astronomical Society?

Yeah, from the early 19th century.

Didn't they disband back in the early Victorian

era?

Yes.

Well, we've relaunched it.

Oh.

Well, so you're a gentleman stargazer of the

old school.

Well, you appear to be of the old

school yourself.

This star cartography is from the 1500s.

You have a fine eye.

It's for my pet project about Shakespeare's understanding

of the cosmos.

Ah, it is not in the stars to

hold our destiny.

But in ourselves.

But also a poet.

Well, poets and astronomers, we seek the same

thing.

A larger view of the universe.

Well said.

I must say, I find your Shakespeare project

fascinating.

Well, it grew out of my belief that

the Big Bang not only created matter and

antimatter, but is also the source behind great

art.

Big Bang?

You have a way with a phrase, Professor.

Please, tell me more.

Well, it's really amazing, don't you think?

In my astrolabe and theodolite online community, we

call them the smartphones of antiquity.

Looking after all of these important objects must

be a real responsibility.

Is this where you keep the paperwork?

Well, yeah.

No, I already told you, I'm a friend

of Dr. Kirch's.

I'm just interested in the collection.

Well, it just seems like you were looking

for something.

Oh?

I am wondering why you're sweating so much.

Sweating?

Me?

No.

Hey, I just remembered.

We have to go meet Uncle Vic.

What?

Now.

Oh, yeah.

Sorry.

We gotta go.

Bye.

See you soon, maybe.

Yeah, you run.

Run.

These are the Culpepper Papers.

The originals?

The Culpepper Papers?

Nicholas Culpepper was a 17th century artefact collector.

As soon as I saw what they were,

I thought they might tell us something.

Of course.

The crystal of Dr. John Dee.

Culpepper was once its owner.

Slow down.

Who is Dr. John Dee?

He was the court magician to Queen Elizabeth

I.

A genius.

A true renaissance man.

During the actual renaissance.

And Dee used the crystal to communicate to

the angels and divine the future.

A major magical artefact.

I think it's in a London museum.

So wait, what does this have to do

with our case?

Ah, the legend is that Dee saw something

that made him lose his mind.

He no longer knew who he was.

Didn't recognise his family.

Couldn't function.

He lost his memory.

Whoa.

Why?

It's not just the Culpepper Papers.

These are the writings of John Dee himself,

dated 1588.

Culpepper says that they are always to accompany

the crystal.

It's basically an instruction manual.

Right, so they're fragile.

We need to go and take them somewhere

and read them carefully.

There's just one problem.

It's written in Enochian.

You're losing me again.

It's a language Dee invented.

Got it from the angels.

Yeah, and it's not just basic Enochian, it's

high Enochian.

There are maybe three people on earth who

know how to translate it.

No.

There are four.

The crystal is rendered harmless at which hour

it is contained in the necklace.

But once loose, it hath the power to

grant a single willed glimpse here.

The cost behest a single moment of the

past.

21st century version, please.

The crystal is rendered harmless when it is

contained in its necklace setting.

But once it is taken out, it hath...

Has the power to grant a single desired

glimpse into the future.

The cost being a single memory.

And then it refers to amplifying or expanding

the power of the crystal.

Crystal is behest amplified to the pointeth where

the past is cleared.

Hence, the knowledge of the future is limitless.

The past is cleared.

Does it say how the crystal can be

amplified?

It can emit spectral particulates.

But the rest of the instructions appear to

be missing.

I just checked with my old contacts in

the illegal procurement world.

And the word is that the D crystal

was stolen.

Along with those papers from the London Science

Museum a few weeks back.

They've been keeping it under wraps because of

all the superstition.

Right.

Let us roll.

Right, no more namby-pamby.

The papers are here, the crystal has got

to be here.

I'm going to confront these gentlemen and force

them to acknowledge the call.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, we don't know that they're

both in on it.

You said your man was acting suspicious.

Oh yeah, he was sweating.

Noticineris was as odd as a duck mole.

At the very least they know something and

we are going to wring it out of

them.

We can't force them to do anything.

Right, we're not the police.

But I'm the librarian.

And they are abusing a very powerful magical

artefact.

Now we have tried your ever so fashionable

non-confrontation belly wash.

But now we'll do things my way.

Once I put the screws to them, these

fellows will be discouraged from any further traffic

of magical artefacts.

Not to mention robbery.

When you say put the screws to them,

you don't really mean screws, do you?

I want information.

But violence is the last resort.

Oh, we have tried the first resort.

What, first resort, last resort, second resort?

We know it's them.

We know they have the crystal somewhere.

We still don't know where they're getting at

this.

That is a nice car for a teaching

assistant.

This vehicle, expensive?

Very.

You two, find Noticineris and bring him to

the office.

Yes.

These gentlemen are about to receive a proper

buffeting.

Have we been peering into the future?

Maybe wagering a wist or a hazard deck?

Perhaps the trotters?

Are you with the police?

No.

But you do have something that we're going

to need back.

We are going to recover that crystal.

What crystal?

I don't know anything about any crystal.

Well, if you don't have a crystal, then

why are you running away?

And I demand you make this scar.

I can't remember how to drive.

No, no, no, no, no.

No, I don't know how to make it

stop.

Um, okay.

Now pull back with your hands and push

down with your feet like a horse.

No!

It's not in here either.

Must have gone home for the day.

Call Connor.

So it's the man who hates cell phones.

Hello, Connor, yes.

It's Vikram.

Yes.

I need advice.

How do you stop a motorised carriage?

Tell me.

No, nothing that looks like a key.

Do something!

Brilliant work, Charlie.

What were you thinking?

Doing something stupid like that.

I don't know.

He seemed to forget how to pilot the

carriage.

He must be under the spell.

Spell?

What about you?

Are you okay?

Charlie?

Who are you people?

You are my guardian, sent by the library.

How do you know about the library?

Because I'm the librarian.

Well, a librarian.

Do you remember how you got the money?

I've just had a clairvoyant moment.

I saw a roulette wheel with two numbers.

So I went to the casino and put

all my money on those numbers.

I'm not a guardian.

I didn't make the cut.

Initially, but then Jacob Stone contacted you.

It was like I could see the future.

It felt like cheating.

I was afraid someone was going to come

after me.

So that is why you're acting so suspiciously.

It seemed like you knew my secret.

How's it going?

She has a complete blank from right before

Stone called up until about an hour ago.

Hasn't met us.

Isn't sure how she got here.

That's two months.

He only forgot how to drive.

She was obviously exposed after him, so it's

getting stronger.

What else did we learn?

Philip says that Stenaris travelled to London on

the weekend of the 18th.

That's the weekend the crystal was stolen.

Can't be a coincidence.

So, Stenaris is the malefactor.

But where is the crystal?

He thinks he knows where it might be.

The vault is in the building.

Downstairs.

Let's go.

We're going to need you.

So you know about the library.

You could be an enemy.

You could be using magic to try and

co-opt me.

You know, Yves Baird may have thought that

I wasn't ready.

And maybe I'm not.

But I am still loyal to the library.

Take him inside.

See about this vault.

Come on.

The fact that the library even considered you

as a possible guardian means you must have

better instincts than that.

I am not an enemy of the library.

A powerful spell has taken a portion of

your memory, and that portion includes us.

I cannot give you back your actual memories,

but what I can do, I can tell

you what you need to know, so you

can be part of our team again.

I'm not allowed in here without Dr. Stenaris.

It can only be opened with his retinal

scan.

This is one I've never cracked before.

How do you know so much about breaking

and entering?

Well, there isn't an app on the internet

for discovering magical secrets.

Move.

Which brings me up to the moment that

you saved me from a runaway vehicle.

That all happened?

To me?

You don't think that you are guardian material

because you do not remember what you have

done over the past five weeks.

But I do.

I'm the librarian.

And you are my guardian.

Even if on a trial basis.

Got it, sir.

Hey, guys.

Come on.

Come on.

Here's another one.

From London.

Seems to be from the court of Elizabeth.

Do you think he held the necklace in

Christian Hall?

Guys, look at this.

The picture is changing to someone else.

Does this mean what I think it means?

What do the translations say again about the

crystal being amplified?

Ah, um, the crystal is behest amplified to

the point of where the past is cleared

hence.

And the knowledge of the future is limitless.

The past is cleared hence.

Not memories.

The actual past.

So Dr. Kirsch didn't just lose the memory

of coming up with her hypothesis.

It never happened.

Someone else did it.

Are you saying actual events have been wiped

out?

History's been changed?

Why would he want to do this?

Oh, he doesn't.

He wants the other part.

The limitless knowledge of the future.

Oh, he doesn't care about consequences.

He is what we call a remorseless monomaniac.

Sociopath.

But how is he amplifying the crystal?

The question is, if his goal is to

selfishly gain knowledge, then why would he involve

other people?

Because he needs something from them in order

to achieve his goal.

And memories.

Magical causality.

He must get his power to look into

the future by consuming people's memories.

Correction by consuming the past.

And the more people that look through it,

the more powerful it becomes.

When did Charlie look through the glass?

Ah, when me and Seneros were verbally jousting,

she looked through the telescope.

Of course.

Where else would you put a piece of

glass people look through?

It's just another lens.

Thank you for saving me the trouble of

explaining all that.

God damn it!

Get your ass out of here, you bounder!

Sorry to keep you here like this, but

I have twenty undergraduates arriving for a stargazing

session.

And once they've all looked at the Andromeda

Galaxy, the crystals should be fully amplified.

Stenaris, you have unleashed forces beyond your control!

Do you know what it's like for a

man of my intellect to cast my pearls

before swiney undergraduates, while people like Rosalind Kersh

get famous on stories of cups of tea

and picnics?

Now this is the story.

The greatest discovery of the history of science.

And my name will go down with Copernicus,

Galileo, and Sagan.

Sagan.

Think about the consequences of erasing history.

As a remorseless monomaniac, let me just tell

you, I don't care.

It's not going to work.

The Doran frame's case hardened steel.

But if the crystal is already overcharged, then

imagine what would happen once he sucked the

memory of twenty more people.

Zombie apocalypse?

It's actually worse than that.

When you change the past, it takes time

for those changes to catch up with you.

The past changed when Dr. Kersh lost her

memories, but it took time for the causality

changes to catch up with our timeline.

Which is why the book and the painting

are only changing now.

Exactly.

I don't understand.

Imagine time like a lake, and we exist

on its shore.

And the erased memory is like a pebble,

dropped in the centre.

It takes time for the ripples to reach

us.

So when Charlie's timeline catches up with us,

she doesn't just forget.

But she never actually met us.

And if we never met her...

Then no one saved you from the Dracovac.

Which would mean that on our current timeline,

we would all be...

Dead.

Thank you for coming.

Next week we get to view the Triffid

Nebula.

Thank you, Dr. Stenaris.

That was incredible.

Yes, but it can be overwhelming.

So my advice is to go straight home.

Wait.

Panic is the enemy.

Always balance.

Always balance.

French isn't helping.

Sorry.

Who installed this vault?

A security company.

What kind of company?

They specialise in banks, museums?

Museums, I think.

Museum and art gallery systems usually have a

fire override sensor to allow firefighters to enter

a burning vault without having their passports.

I don't know anything about that, sorry.

It wouldn't be out in plain sight like

a smoke alarm.
