All language subtitles for Relic Hunter S02e09 Cross Of Voodoo

Thank you for

watching.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You dumb men, Rocket.

You are human again.

Okay.

Yeah, she's just going to get some
steps.

Good timing.

There you go.

You're late today.

Just felt my, you know, beeper go off.

You sure it was your beeper?

I gotta go.

What?

Something wrong?

Yeah, I just got another call from the
dean.

Apparently Matt and Kelly's parents
still haven't heard from them. Kids

and go incommunicado all the time.

It's been two weeks, Claudia.

Must have been a hot party. They were
checking in twice a week.

Have you spoken to the New Orleans
Police Department?

Yeah, they didn't come up with anything.

You didn't force them to go to New
Orleans for their research.

But I encouraged them to.

They're my students, Nigel.

Can you try again, please?

The thing is, you see, voodoo takes the
basic tenets of Catholicism and

incorporates practices from a variety of
African traditions.

The fun, Nago, Igbos, the Dahomians, the
Congos. Oh, and the Senegalese.

Professor Richard, we really need to
talk about Matt and Kelly.

Oh, right, right. You sounded concerned
on the phone.

Well, we haven't heard from them for a
while. Well, they've been doing some

good work.

They're very sharp. They came up with
information on Haitian rituals that even

didn't know about.

When was the last time you saw them?

Oh, a couple of weeks ago, maybe.

Actually, I was quite surprised when you
called.

I assumed they'd left New Orleans by
now.

They ain't been here for a while.

Still on me for last month.

They checked them out before.

No degree greed that was hanging in
there.

Gris -gris? Don't get me wrong, I like
to pass the good time myself, but they

don't like the place Beaucoup crushed
here.

Do you have any idea what he's talking
about?

You English?

Mm -hmm.

I had a friend move over there about,
ooh, six years ago. Name is Beau.

Beau Lacroix, you know him?

No. No, I don't think so.

Huh? No.

Your friend was into some strange stuff.

What kind of strange stuff?

See for yourself.

Matt and Kelly were getting into their
research.

Some of their notes.

Have you any idea where they might have
gone?

If I did, I'd send the cops over to get
my money. You see them, you tell them

they want their camera back. They best
clean this mess up and get me the rest

the rent.

Camera?

Only thing worth a damn they left
behind.

But I'll be lucky if he and the security
depositor cover this mess.

Tape inside.

How much?

Five hundred.

Five hundred for tape?

I'm afraid it only comes as a set.

Take a check.

Oh, no. Cash.

Of course.

Did you see those mutton chops? The man
looked like Captain Queeg.

And then when he asked me if I knew Bo,
Bo, just because I've lived in England,

it's like asking me if I know the Queen.

Let's just hope there's something here
we can use.

Yeah, so do I for $500.

Why don't you check these notes while I
call Claudia?

Looks like someone broke in, Nigel.

That doesn't look like there's anything
missing.

You all right?

Did she see you take her brush?

This woman needs a taste of the power of
Voodoo.

Wait,

let me get the camera steady.

Okay, Matt.

All right. It's Tuesday, November the
12th. We're in the voodoo church of

Lakewood, Duval, Louisiana.

Oh, this is so awesome.

Right up here, it's the Cross of Utu.

No one has seen it for over a hundred
years.

And Kelly and I might be the first ones
to find it. So, man, we are so stoked.

Now, we've got to go back to New Orleans
tonight to meet up with Professor

Richard, and then we'll be back here
tomorrow morning.

The last time Professor Rashad met with
him.

We met this voodoo priest.

Matt, he told us not to say anything.

Put the camera on the tripod for a
second. Come out here.

Kelly's a little freaked out. I think
she's taking her job a little too

Yeah. Why don't you tell us your
theories, Agent Scully?

I'm not being paranoid.

Because a lot of strange things have
been happening lately.

Right.

like Satan and his voodoo posse might
carjack us on the way home.

It's not funny, Matt.

I'm serious.

Kay looked pretty scared.

Cross of Utu.

It's a voodoo icon, as I recall.

I thought it was supposed to be in
Haiti.

Yeah. I looked through Matt and Kelly's
notes. They say there's a voodoo sect

here that worships Utu.

Probably in that church that was on the
video. What else?

Well, there are two symbols that
represent the sect.

A spider and a serpent. The serpent
represents the second in command, a sort

lieutenant. Then the leader, the
effect's king, is represented by the

I think we should head down to Duval,
see what we can find out. Maybe we can

find the church.

Maybe we can find the priest they're
talking about. I think we should run

tape by Professor Richard first, see
what he has to say.

My shoulder!

I believe your professor's in some
discomfort.

Hey, wait. Where are you going?

Come back.

Don't I have to sign for this?

The cellular customer you are trying to
reach is unavailable or has traveled

beyond the service area.

Right up here, it's the cross of U2.

No one has seen it for over 100 years.

And Kelly and I might be the first ones
to find it. So, man, we are so stoked.

Now, we've got to go back to New Orleans
tonight to meet up with Professor

Richard, and then we'll be back here in
the morning. A cross of Utu.

Matt. Amazing.

It's been missing for over 100 years. I
had no idea they were on to its

location.

Your students really are very good.

We also found some notes of Matt and
Kelly's.

Have you heard anything about a sect
worshipping Utu here?

No, I didn't even know that the cross
was in the country.

The legend has it that it's still in
Haiti.

You all right?

Yeah, just a little sore.

What's the matter?

Someone broke into our room.

I must have sprained a muscle.

Someone broke into your room?

We should get going if we want an early
start to Duval tomorrow. Sidney, Duval

isn't New Orleans.

They're not very receptive to outsiders
there.

There can be some very unfriendly
elements in voodoo. We'll be careful.

Well, this is Deval.

Yeah.

I guess Professor Richard was right.
They're not exactly rolling out the red

carpet. I can't see anything that looks
like a church.

That's strange.

No church in a small town like this.

Let's see if there's someone in that
store we can talk to.

I'm getting a very strange feeling.

Like we're being watched?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Let's keep going. There's got to be
someone here that'll talk to us.

No!

You want to know about the cross and the
students.

How did you know? Look for a fire in the
woods tonight, an hour after sundown,

south of the motel.

Wait! Not yet.

Tonight.

In the woods.

Sun's going down.

It'll be getting dark pretty soon.

Our accommodations for the evening.

I don't suppose the building inspectors
get...

Out to the swamp very often.

Sidney, about meeting this man tonight,
with what the professor said and all,

don't you think it could be a little
bit... Dangerous? Mm. Mm -hmm.

Ah.

Thanks again.

All I wanted was a nice teaching job.

You've been avoiding me.

No, I, uh... Tell me something.

What's wrong?

I am a healthy, red -blooded woman.
Don't seem to have any problems getting

dates. So tell me, what is the problem
here?

Nothing. It's just... It's against my
religion.

Oh, please. I've seen you partying at
the pub.

I have a girlfriend?

You and Sharon broke up a month ago.

I don't even know you.

Nothing escapes me on this campus.

Did you hear that?

Fire drill. We really should, uh... Very
well.

You leave me no choice.

Ow!

My hair!

What are you, nut?

I will have that man.

Not taking a shower in this room.

Claudia.

Nigel, where are you? I've been trying
to get a hold of you for hours.

I'm sorry, Claudia. There doesn't seem
to be a lot of reception for cell phones

in Deliverance Land.

I thought you were on Bourbon Street.

Yeah, it's a long story. What's so
urgent?

I got a package from Matt and Kelly in
New Orleans.

What's in it?

I don't know.

I would never open one of Sidney's
personal packages without her. Claudia.

It's a bunch of paperwork.

What kind of paperwork?

I don't know. There's like 300 pages
here.

Looks like research or something.

Overnight it to the hotel in New Orleans
as soon as you can. Okay, I missed

today's pickup, but I'll send it out
first thing tomorrow.

Thank you.

You might want to put a jacket on before
we go out.

What do you mean?

I can't seem to find my hairbrush. Can I
borrow yours?

Sure.

Nice bird.

Thanks. Thank you.

Do you think there are snakes out here?

Yeah, but only a couple of the species
are poisonous.

Oh, that's very reassuring. Thank you.
Yes.

Well, don't worry. They scurry away when
they hear people coming.

Okay. Now, the alligators, they could be
a problem.

I think I see something.

What is it?

Not sure.

What do you think?

Does that look like a fire to you?

Maybe.

Something's not right.

It's very quiet.

Yeah, I think we're onto something.

Did you see that?

No. Exactly.

Fire.

Looks like a...

I guess that flash must have scared them
off.

I guess.

I just can't believe that those
creatures are the same Matt and Kelly I

your class a few weeks ago.

It was them, or some form of who they
were.

And now they've turned into some sort of
zombie?

No. Zombies are the living dead.

Your friends are still very much alive,
but Devereaux has them under a strong

spell. Who's Devereaux?

A powerful bokor.

A bokor is like a sorcerer?

This will help with the pain.

The cross of Utu gives Devereaux his
power.

What kind of power?

The cross can be used for evil by men
like Devereaux.

Gives them great strength and control of
others.

They are under his spell and will do
whatever he wishes.

Devereaux?

Must have known that Matt and Kelly were
close to finding it.

The cross can also be used to heal the
sick and break spells cast by a bokor.

And now it is the only thing that can
save your friend. Where can we find it?

Legend says the cross was stolen from
Haiti by Devereux's ancestors and

here.

They hid it with a spell that gives him
his dark power.

Supposedly somewhere in this very bayou.

To break the power, we must find the
cross.

Did I do something wrong?

Your hair.

It's brown.

Yes, it is.

You must change it before the next full
moon.

Change it to what?

Not brown.

Matt and Kelly mentioned they were
coming to see you.

The symbols look African.

Fulani. It has tribal roots in northern
Senegal.

The symbols on the carving show where
the cross might be.

Half, it seems, is broken off. It is
only half.

When complete, the carving shows the
location of four talismans placed near

cross.

They are part of the spell.

Only by locating the talismans can we
find the cross.

So who has the other half?

It was lost long ago in battle.

But your friends discovered it in their
research.

They were bringing it to me, but
Devereaux got to them first.

I'm not sure if he got the carving.

I was hoping that maybe you had it.

We searched their apartment. There was
no wood carving, nothing that looked

this.

Then it is hopeless.

Maybe not.

A package Matt and Kelly sent to the
office.

It's still at the office. Let's go back
to the motel and call Claudia.

It's two o 'clock in the morning. I am
not happy about this.

Yes, I'm sorry, Claudia, but it's very
important.

Now, are you sure there's not a wood
carving in the package?

I'm positive.

It's just paper.

But they must have made a copy. It's
standard research protocol.

Probably made a rubbing of it.

Claudia, look for a rubbing. It's like
an impression taken of an engraved

object.

Okay. And it should have African writing
on it.

Have you been a witch doctor long?

I mean, I'm sure you don't go to school
for it or anything like that. Not in the

university sense.

I mean, well, can you imagine? The
Bachelor of Science from Harvard in

doctoring.

Not brown.

No.

Wait a minute. I think I found
something.

Great. Scan it and email it to Nigel.

It's on its way.

It says the cross is buried in a chamber
under the ground. It must remain there

for Devereux to keep his power.

Well, we have to find the talismans
first. Yes, the first is located on an

tree at the mouth of Silver Creek.

Silver Creek is not far from here.

It's both talismans.

Pentagram. Let's mark it.

All we need to do is find the other
three.

Okay, we're more or less in the center
of the four talismans.

I don't see anything that would mark an
altar.

The carving says the talismans hold the
cross's power in place, while the

lodging place will be the center.

You don't believe that, do you?

Well, where else would it be?

Hold it.

Now, the talismans are supposed to show
us the location of the cross, right?

These are the four locations of the
talismans we've already found.

Each of those talismans has happened to
be a pentagram.

So if we connect these and finish it as
a pentagram, the fifth point is where

the cross should be.

The top of the pentagram is the point of
strongest magical energy. The other

four points... Supported. Now,
pentagrams point at equal distance from

center. If we measure the distance from
here to any one of these torches, the

fifth point must be the same distance in
that direction.

To save your friends, you must place the
cross to the front of their heads and

chant this prayer.

Bala nete utu.

Bala nete utu.

Where are you going?

Devereux will try to stop us.

I can perform a ceremony that may
counter his power, but I must go back to

hut.

Stop measuring.

That one?

45, 46, 47, 48, 49.

Well, this is the same distance.

It's probably somewhere around here.

Nigel. What if we align it with the
direction of the points we found?

Stay on my tail.

I'll go slow.

Pentagrams. The tablet says pentagrams
hold the cross's power in place.

Is that it?

Spider and... The leader and his
lieutenant, like in Matt and Kelly's

Strange. Feels like there's an
electrical current running through it.

Here. No, no, thanks.

Let's just take it upstairs and go find
Matt and Kelly.

What?

This is way too easy getting in here.

Where's the Devereaux gun?

What's that?

I know about the cross, but what about
the words?

I can't remember the words.

Mmm.

Now, you didn't think I was just going
to let you walk out of here with my

did you?

Deborah!

Like a snake to me.

Let me show you how it's done.

Don't be discouraged you did hurt me in
here

He'll be all right from now on.

Let's go.

Nigel, why don't you take them back to
the motel?

If Debra was a serpent, we have the
spider to worry about.

I'm gonna go visit our witch doctor.

Okay.

Come on.

Sidney, don't let go of me.

Mr. Rashad. Hello.

I was concerned about you and Sidney
and... You found them.

Matt.

Kelly, you're okay.

They're a little disoriented, but I
think they'll be all right.

Please come in. Thank you.

What on earth happened to you?

We're not really sure.

Our memories are really weak.

Well, I'm just glad that the two of you
are all right.

As I recall, once the cross is removed
from the chamber, the power it gives you

and Devereux is gone.

The spider.

Not anymore.

His power's gone.

I don't think we'll be able to use this
for our thesis.

Thesis which happens to be three weeks
late.

They convicted Richard of the assault
and kidnapping charges.

Well, that should put him out of
business for a long time.

Yes. So tell me about this voodoo
ceremony that the priest performed on

cross. It was amazing.

Yeah, they put the cross in the shrine
in the church. The sun just beamed off

and threw this awesome light show on the
wall.

And then they recited this protection
spell using animal bones and potions.

the priest said that any Bokors won't be
able to touch it after the blessing

ritual they did.

Well, it's good to know that it's in the
right hands. Yeah.

Oh, and there's one more thing that we
want to show you.

Oh, my goodness.

Congratulations.

Yes, well, we thought about living
together for a little while longer.

Right, but then we figured we pretty
much had seen each other at our worst.

Yeah.

Nigel, the gangster look is... So over.
And besides, you're supposed to wear it

like this.

Well, give me 12 hours till the full
moon.

the most beautiful woman in the world.

For me, you shouldn't have.

So I'll see you tonight, then.

Seven?

Seems like an eternity away from you.

I don't understand.

What did you do to that poor man?

What do you mean?

Well... A week ago, he didn't want to
come within three miles of you.

Now he's practically proposing marriage.

How did you do it?

I wore him down.
