Before we do all that.

Sir, do you understand the gravity of what's happening?

Bet there were no kitchen duties.

What is your name?

I understand that the schedule has moved.

We can not slow it down anymore than we can speed it up.

She's not a machine.

They suspect to see nothing.

Do they think nothing?

I've done all I can.

Give me the phone.

We need reinforcements.

What?

Damn it.

Soldier!

Where am I?

And who are you?

We are in a tunnel and my name is Frances.

Now, would you please lower your voice?

Young lady, I can see we are in a tunnel.

I'm sorry, could you just try to be a bit...

Where is the tunnel we are in?

Shh.

Can't you hear that?

What?

I was sure I heard something moving.

What?

Nothing.

I was attacked by another one of these things

further along the tunnel.

It was taking me somewhere just like this one with you.

I see.

Can you remember anything about how you got here?

What your name is?

What you do?

Or.

Richard Bowman,

division of scientists from Project Insecretus.

Good.

Hello, Professor Richard Bowman.

I'm Frances Day and I'm a cook.

Now, I have no idea how I got here or where these things...

Men.

Men smoke, things do not.

Where these men were taking us.

Do you remember anything?

I can't remember a damn thing before this.

Wait, running.

Yes.

And a corridor, flashing lights, and...

Yes.

People running along a corridor and a door.

A large steel door.

No large door.

What about a song?

A song?

No, I don't remember a song just a set of great big doors.

It was very faint.

There was something.

Blood, there was blood all over the floor

and a man sitting against the bottom of the door.

He's a friend, a good man.

I need to help him.

He can't move.

No.

He won't move.

He just keeps.

Well?

What is it?

What does it say?

I can't read it.

It's mostly sketches and symbols.

I mean, I recognize some of the equations.

Glad you can make something of that.

It's all Greek to me.

Latin, actually.

What happened to the man by the door?

We said the words.

We fed it.

You can't close it now.

I don't exactly recall.

What do you think you're doing there?

I want to know what this man looks like.

I want to see who we're fighting.

Hmm, a secreted resin.

I wonder how it, he, sees at all?

I'm not sure they can see.

Easy does it.

I wasn't disapproving of your enthusiasm.

Could you help?

Oh, my goodness.

Dear Lord.

It may have been a man.

What do you think it could be?

Absolutely no idea.

And what about his teeth?

Yes, there certainly are too many teeth.

What?

What happened?

It breathed.

Well, it can be very normal for a body to expel gases

up to around 36 hours after death.

Very normal?

Oh, most certainly.

Frances, you're not going to pump it again, are you?

The path to getting out is very confusing.

Mostly gibberish.

Put the book away, Professor.

Come on.

Wait.

What if there's something, one of those things, up ahead?

We should have a plan of some kind.

Have you brought a rock?

Yes.

Good.

That's your plan.

Not very scientific.

But, it's all we have, so make the best of it.

If you have to hit anything, open your blasted eyes.

And try not to hit me.

Understood.

Must be a problem with the connection to this section.

Would make sense for the power to be isolated in each.

There's something past the dark.

Do you see that?

Not really.

What is it?

Shh.

Quiet.

You don't see that?

See what?

Who is this?

She was listening to me as I talked.

We should move.

Yes, of course.

New markings.

I wonder what these were carrying.

Frances, what happened back there?

I saw a door.

A cell door.

Incredible.

But, I couldn't move.

Come, Frances.

Smashing.

Frances, do you hear that?

Careful, Professor.

See seems familiar.

Um, hello?

If you wait here we can find a way around to help you.

Yes, that's right.

We shall split up that way we...

No.

We stay together.

Rises, rises, rises, rises, rises, rises.

Hello?

They changed you.

Frances, we need that pencil.

That crowbar is mine.

What's it worth?

You can have this rock.

Where did you get that?

Do you know where I got this?

What it means?

Yes, and I'll tell you for the crowbar.

Nice try.

No, I'm sorry.

I don't know what these mean or where we got them,

but we should both work our way around

and then we can find a way out of these tunnels.

I can't save you.

I know.

Have you run into anything, anyone else?

Not a soul.

Why?

Well, that's good.

Listen to me.

I can't take you with me.

It's more important than I've...

I'll send help, but you need to stay here.

Do you understand?

On this spot.

Oh, yes.

And make noise, so that when I send people to help

they can find you.

We should make noise?

Yeah, yeah.

Talking won't do, though.

You'll need to make a great deal of noise.

I see.

So that when the help comes, they can find you.

You'll both be safe.

Stop it.

This is ridiculous.

Together we will be...

Killed.

I cannot help you.

It's safer alone.

Separate.

Trust me.

Stay here and make noise.

Wait.

A song.

Do you remember a song?

A song?

Yes.

I remember.

Damn.

Professor.

Professor, this is not the time for a rest.

This.

This is starting to make sense.

At least, a great part of the mathematics are.

Very good.

Could we walk and do maths?

I just completed an equation

which seems to be for predicting planetary alignments.

Where a planet's going to be

and when it's going to be there.

You were present a moment ago

for that terrifying screech, yes?

This set of equations, the maths in here,

are about predicting where a small point of a planet

will be and when.

That small point in place and time

is where we are right now.

Roughly.

So, the maths tells you where we are?

Yes, relatively speaking.

Where?

Here's longitude.

Latitude here.

This is depth.

Well, hopefully feet.

Time is on the next page.

And you know all this from the equations here?

Yes, of course.

There's a drawing of it all over here.

See?

Oh, it's really very good.

Here's the planet and this, clearly, is the trajectory.

Professor.

No, it's really very good considering the lack of space.

Professor, how does this help us?

Yes, well.

I believe the reason this tunnel system is so unsystematic

rests with it being built to find this very specific point

underground at this very specific time.

Very good.

So, the maths tells us we're underground?

Yes, and they were digging for something.

What were they digging for?

I don't know yet.

I'm sorry.

I don't suppose this maths could draw us a map, could it?

No, but there's no reason why we shouldn't

construct our own.

Handy, if we don't die before you finish it.

What's that?

Nothing, professor.

Could we move whist you construct the map?

One moment.

I feel most fortunate to have met you down here, Frances.

Heaven knows what would've happened to me.

Frances?

Frances?

Don't you remember?

You must fall.

Remember.

There will be only one chance.

You must fall.

I beg your pardon?

Frances, are you quite all right?

You look as if you might fall.

No, I will not fall.

Very good.

As I was saying, some of the translations in here

are about uncovering a thinning wall.

Does that mean anything to you?

No, sorry.

Professor, could we move?

I don't want to stay here any longer.

Of course.

Yes, of course.

It's most disconcerting.

I understand how you feel, professor.

Right now that book is our best intelligence,

present company not withstanding, of course.

Shouldn't the maths hint at a way out of these tunnels?

Please, do explain it to me.

Agreed.

You pummel things, I will handle navigation.

It's just an exercise.

I think they've run out of kitchen duties.

No rules out here, princess.

Frances!

Study on, Tallulah.

A finally just needs 40 winks.

What?

He called me Tallulah.

At least he's not dead.

Hit the wall.

Banging noise.

They're blind.

Hey, hey.

Hey.

Ha.

Oh.

Help.

You must give everything.

You cannot fail.

It means everything.

Ha.

No.

The professor is with me.

Thank you.

How are you doing, Professor?

A little bruised around the shoulders,

but my head is still hurting which is a blessing, I suppose.

That's good then.

I'm starting to feel good.

Strange, really.

I would've thought my appetite would of...

Briggs?

Private Briggs?

Not if you don't buy me a drink first.

I was trying to find the key

to your cuffs.

Take it easy, love.

I was only joking.

How do you feel?

Do you have any cigarettes?

Sorry, no.

You did that?

Yes.

You don't have any cigarettes, do ya?

Sorry, no.

Right.

Have you got anything apart from that crowbar?

We've a rock.

Yeah, we might need something

a little bit bigger than that.

No offense, pal.

None taken.

And we've a lighter.

Just no cigarettes.

Why would we need something bigger?

What have you seen?

Stranger things than that.

Private Briggs, you will commence firing, Private!

Sir, I will not shoot women, sir!

You will follow orders and fire or face the consequences!

Sir, no, sir!

You will fire your weapon, Private,

and contain this tunnel!

It will take more than a court-martial

to make me shoot unarmed civilians, sir!

You will fire your weapon, soldier,

or I will shoot you myself.

So, it was some kind of containment procedure.

Can you remember how many levels?

Would there have been...

Was there a quarantine zone?

I'm sorry, they told us nothing.

Maybe one group ahead of us and one behind.

We just got back off a 12 hour patrol.

And where were you patrolling?

Kent.

We're in Kent.

I remember that.

Yes, right.

So, you two don't remember anything about this facility?

We're having real trouble recalling anything about this.

Take my word, they've been extremely compartmentalized.

I seem to remember Kent being very pleasant.

Yes, green, pretty.

Can you tell me why you're here?

No.

I'm sorry, I can't remember.

That's perfectly normal.

For all of this it's very normal.

Just a few more questions, all right?

Do you remember anything about this place?

Oh, I would've thought the professor here would know.

We were just supposed to be keeping people out

'cause there's no sense in keeping people in.

The usual agreements, I suppose.

A chemical experiment, new weapons.

That sort of thing.

From what I can tell, it's more likely the research is,

was, an alternative power source.

I told Stevenson.

Gentlemen.

I don't think we should rule it out completely.

Just from what I could tell.

Shh.

Can either of you hear that?

I'm sorry, no.

I don't think so.

No, sorry.

Was it the music again?

No, it's something else.

We could try and find our way around.

There is no other way around.

So, what should we do?

Now, get that lighter out, Professor.

Why don't we have any cigarettes?

That's what you most want to find

is your cigarettes?

I'm gasping.

Best place to look for any weapons

is going to be on any bodies.

At least that is practical.

Do you know how bad cigarettes are for you?

You all right, love?

Her name is Frances.

All right.

Can't you hear that?

We need to get her into the light.

It must be closed.

It must be closed.

Remember.

♪ Tell me why ♪

♪ Tell me why ♪

♪ Why I think of you yet ♪

You have to understand that the schedule has moved.

We cannot slow it down any more than we can speed it up.

She's not a machine and neither am I.

This is not some switch you can simply...

There's no off switch for what is about to come.

They are fully aware.

Yes, I realize that.

She'll either be ready or not.

There is no other path to take.

I know what's at stake here.

Do you?

Do you?

Up her dosages in her sessions.

Whatever is needed to be prepared.

She could die.

And if we need her and she is not ready,

she will not be the only one.

You know what's at stake.

She knew what was at stake.

No, she didn't.

Maybe not completely, but who amongst us fully did?

That's true enough.

And she volunteered just like the rest of us.

And if she could tell you now why,

she would probably thank you.

Perhaps.

No, certainly.

Up her dosages in her sessions.

I know you can.

You see it?

What?

How did it get in there?

They suspect.

Do nothing.

Think nothing.

Ah, we were expecting you.

Your schedule has moved as has mine.

Who is this?

Ah, I see you've found one of Julius' patients.

May I introduce to you Dr. Julius Hicks.

Number 36 here is part of an ongoing experiment

that primarily focuses on behavioral modification.

She was listening to you both

as you talked outside this room.

As she does now.

Well, I don't want to sound rude, but with this drip,

I doubt that she understands a word that we're saying.

I'm glad you're here, sir.

We'd like to discuss the change in schedule

and the dangers involved.

The wheels turn, gentlemen.

And so, we must all adhere to the schedule

no matter what the dangers.

We waste time here.

We are scientists, not mechanics.

And no amount of inspections, or strong-arm tactics,

can make us speed up this delicate, and important, work.

As men of science, you're folly is to always place

your own work in such high regard.

Giddy with self importance, you scuttle out of the shadows

of your ancestors wondering how did they

ever survive this long without me.

And yet, when faced with the real world needs

of your scientific work, you quibble and forget.

Yes, Doctor.

The real world races towards us

and the changing schedule is not an idle threat.

You see, it hungers for results

that only we can provide.

And do not mistake the presence of this fine officer.

You see, Julius,

they're here to protect you

from me.

Ah, the inspection of it.

I think you'll be very pleased to report, sir,

how far we've come on such a tight deadline.

36, we have work to do.

You must remember.

It can only happen if you fall.

You will be the only one to remember.

Remember, it must be closed.

You must fall.

Remember, it must be closed.

Frances.

Frances?

What are we gonna do?

She came around in the light last time.

This happened before?

Yes.

Should I give her a?

What?

Oh, no.

I think that would be a bad idea.

All right, so we're just gonna wait here then?

Frances?

Boo, Frances.

Frances?

Not a hard one.

Just a.

I'm glad you've got the crowbar, Professor.

Are you all right?

You must not stop.

You will not be stopped.

Stop there.

Stand down.

Can you hear me?

Bloody hell, she can throw a punch.

Frances, are you all right?

Can you stand...

Stand down.

Do you hear me?

I said stand down.

You stand down.

Are you mad, woman?

These are live rounds.

Now, stand down!

Shoot me!

It must be closed.

You must give everything.

You cannot fail in this.

It means everything.

You are the only one.

You must fall.

I said!

I said shoot me!

You'll have to kill me to stop me!

And there aren't enough of you to do that.

I don't think I'm a cook.

As long as you are all right.

You don't hit like a cook.

Been hit by many cooks?

I have, actually.

Thank you.

Have you found anything useful?

Any bodies?

We haven't started looking yet.

We were more worried about.

Professor, what do you make of this?

Well, I'd have preferred a pack of cigarettes.

Or a gun.

Is that blood?

Let's hope it's just blood.

Has a certain second coming charm about it.

I can't say why, but I really don't like the look of this.

I know it's only a drawing.

Oh, I can say why.

It's horrible, that's why.

Do not do that.

I knew I recognized it.

Achtung means.

Yeah, I understand that, Professor.

Sorry, I meant thank you, Professor.

Why is it in German?

Perhaps, the original notes were taken in German.

There are lots of different languages in here.

I agree.

We shouldn't touch it.

I second it.

I've seen some things, but not this.

We should move on.

Correct?

Briggs, check that jacket.

It might have a key.

What is that smell?

Well, don't look at me, pal.

It's the bowels from this half.

You're certainly not like any cook I've ever met.

Oh, here you are.

I think I found some of those bowels over here.

And I found a knife

and army biscuits.

They're still sealed.

Unlike this poor bugger's bowels.

I think it might have been two people.

There's nothing here, but guts and shit.

Excuse my French.

Cheers.

Shall we save you one, Professor?

Is this far enough?

Yes, thank you.

This will be fine.

Let's stay quiet here a minute

and then we'll get moving again.

I'm gonna buy a pack of cigarettes, pal.

Kill that keen sense of smell of yours stone dead.

Thank you.

I don't fancy our chances here.

I'm watching out, love.

Don't worry about things like that.

I'll keep you safe.

I won't let anything happen to you.

I meant picking the handcuffs.

Yeah, I knew that.

And I meant I won't let anything happen to you

whilst you're picking these handcuffs.

Oh.

Yep.

So, you can't remember any?

Nothing.

Well, you're gonna be all right.

You do know that, don't you?

They did something to me, Briggs.

They've changed me.

Who did?

What did they do?

Now I can't seem to turn it off.

I've got this feeling, this ticking,

that I've forgotten to do something so important.

Look, so you've forgotten who you are.

So, you're not a cook.

It's not permanent.

It's not forever.

It's not that.

We have to go.

Did you hear that?

What, the bang?

Yeah.

Yeah, I heard the bang.

I don't know what that is.

Listen.

Running.

Lots of them running.

So, you didn't see anything.

God, no.

They're still a ways away.

How many of them?

I'm not sure.

Too many.

No doubt.

We need an equalizer.

An equalizer?

Gun.

Right now I'd settle for anything bigger

than this crowbar.

That's the lieutenant who handcuffed me.

What are they doing to him?

Making another one of those rune-type markings

we saw at the last barricade.

At least we know what they draw them with.

Right.

There's only two of them.

And three of us.

You liking them odds, Professor?

For a change, yes.

He's probably still got a key on him.

I can get the key.

No, no, Professor.

I'm gonna get the key.

What I need you to do.

What we need is less running and more planning.

I've got it.

Get his arms.

I've been on top of it.

I've got his arms.

Get the arms.

He won't open his arms, man.

At the elbows.

Pull them down at the elbows.

Aha!

Lift his head up.

You lift his head up.

You wanted it.

No, no.

Go help Briggs.

Oh, of course.

Sorry.

Gentlemen.

I think you've got that one beat.

Should we?

Yeah.

No!

Five rounds left.

If it was fully loaded.

What is that thing?

Something new.

This is incredible.

There's a real hierarchy here.

It's such a structure.

Intelligence.

It's eating his face.

Not anymore.

It's turning people into more of them.

I want that gun, Private.

Could be done.

You should see this.

It's a kind of ritual.

We have to do something now.

Agreed.

We don't want to face two of those things.

Wait.

What?

We go on three.

I want you two on either side of the tunnel

to distract these blind bastards.

But, clear the line of fire once I have that gun.

Understood?

Understood.

At least there's a plan this time.

Me and the professor are ready.

One.

Two.

Three.

Do him.

Shoot his leg.

Do it!

Shoot it.

Back, back.

Keep moving.

You'll be up and about doing all sorts of maths

on that in no time.

You mark my words.

Oh, dear.

I have the strangest feeling.

I can remember.

Madeline.

Adam.

I think we need to move him now.

It makes you do things, makes you forget.

Scrambles how you think.

As if what's...

Easy, pal.

Come on, now.

Come on.

Yes, yes.

The further away we are,

that's if they don't find us, for now,

the more we will remember.

But, that's just the start.

If it comes all the way through there'll be no stopping it.

So, time to move.

We have done...

I have done terrible things, Briggs.

Terrible things.

Yep.

You and me both, pal.

We're very near the way out now.

I remember.

Oh, god.

Promise me.

If I don't make it out, you'll find them and tell them.

I'll promise if you don't shut up

and get a bloody move on, I'll bite the other leg.

How does that sound?

It's the next right, then straight on,

then the first left.

Second, the second left.

♪ Tell me why ♪

♪ I keep fooling my heart ♪

Where were you born?

England.

Where exactly in England?

In England.

No time to rest, love.

Thank you, Briggs.

Here, take this, please.

Why do I want that?

Because I can't make it to the top in time.

So, I'll stay here and slow down what chases us.

You need to make sure these notes are seen.

Professor.

No.

No, Frances, please.

This information, the proof of what they,

what we did here, must be seen.

To the top of these fucking, pardon my French, stairs

whether you want to go or not.

Is that clear, Professor?

You couldn't carry me up those in time.

I will slow us all down.

This is the only thing to do.

It doesn't have to happen like this.

Between us, we could both take your weight.

Can you?

Can we make all those flights in time?

Okay.

Yeah, all right.

You want to talk sense with your son?

Frances, you leave that revolver with me and you get going.

And you, too.

Right now.

Don't be ridiculous.

You two are the only ones who can make sense

of all of this to anyone outside of here.

It's nice if anyone ever listened to me anyway.

You think they'll pay much more attention

to someone like me?

Think about your child and your wife.

You got Browning read.

You'll be useful after all this is over.

Those are better odds than mine, pal.

This is...

Professor, get a move on, eh?

So she doesn't have to carry you the whole sodden way.

Two.

Yeah, ran that out, didn't they?

Briggs, there's still a chance we...

Wrong.

We get halfway up and then get dragged back down again.

No, thank you.

They all died.

All died.

If I kiss you now, you know I will never let you go,

but you have to go.

Bloody murder a cigarette right now.

Oh.

I've got you.

Thank you.

I need just a second.

Professor?

It wasn't our fault.

It wasn't our fault.

We were given classified material

collected from all over the world.

Some of it thousands of years old.

And as men and women of science,

the discoveries you make here shall write you into history.

Saviors.

Masterminds.

Your genius will change the world forever.

So, now it is the time to focus.

Now it is the time to do great work.

At first we were just collecting information

and relaying our findings.

Much of it appeared to be rubbish.

Magic, the occult, demons, fire and brimstone nonsense.

Then, we started to see patterns in the material

that couldn't be possible.

Equations, experiments, questions.

They were thousands of years ahead of their time.

Some even now.

And hidden amongst it all we uncovered instructions.

If any of them start looking in the wrong place,

kill them.

Of course.

And the families?

Many have offspring.

Eliminate the bloodlines.

Everyone.

We were arrogant, entitled.

And following those instructions

we ripped a hole in thin air.

We discovered a source of power impossible, infinite.

It wasn't just a source of power.

We couldn't tell,

but something was making us do these things and forget.

What did they forget?

Forget what, professor?

We ripped a hole open to God knows where

with science,

but we kept it open with blood.

We're being steered, be made to do things.

I think the man whose notebook this is, was,

Professor Browning.

Somehow he used the note taking to distance himself.

To observe.

Kept himself separate to try to stop what was happening.

We need to get moving.

Wait, listen to me.

Remember, I said there were instructions?

Yes, let's go.

There were also instructions to stop what we have done.

Frances, there is a fail safe.

He's got two rounds.

That was only one.

He only fired once, correct?

Not far now.

Frances, this is it.

That's the way out.

And there is no way out.

No way of stopping it.

Frances?

Unless you fall.

Only willing blood can close it.

You must remember what you are trained for.

You must bleed for your country, for us.

Only you can close what unwilling blood has opened.

You must fall.

Wait.

No, no.

It's still open.

Wait.

We're not finished.

She's not ready.

Can you tell me why you're here?

Test?

I'm not exactly sure what for though, sir.

We've run out of time.

You must remember your training.

This is the test?

Yes.

I would very much like to pass.

You're doing very well.

We're almost finished.

Shall we?

Yes.

What is your name?

Only you can stop this now.

It must be closed.

You must fall.

It's the only way.

I've done all I can.

What is my name?

Frances.

Frances.

Frances.

My name isn't Frances.

No.

I can't come with you, Professor.

We can just go straight through that door.

Do you know why Briggs only fired the once?

He's saving the last bullet

and he's not saving it for himself.

How can you know this?

I just know.

I hope you fucking choke on me.

I can't take you any further.

I have something I'm meant to do.

You mean programmed to do.

Let go of me!

No, no.

I need your help.

Why didn't you get the hell out of here.

No, love.

It's okay.

I can stop the music.

What?

Never mind the music.

We have to leave.

You have to leave.

I'm supposed to be here.

It's all right.

There's a door just around that corner.

I need you to guard it.

I just hear the music.

Just the music, love.

Alone I must fall.

I need your help, Private.

I need you to stand guard at that door.

We both have jobs to do.

Don't look back.

Right now, just go.

Now.

At ease, Captain.

Sir.

I'd like to congratulate you.

This program has a very strict criteria.

And your scores across every preliminary test

have been outstanding.

Thank you, sir.

We just have a few more pieces of paperwork

to push through that require your signature.

But, before we do all that,

I want to make certain you understand the gravity

of what's happening here.

The importance of the program you've been selected for.

Remember, number 36.

The instructions, your instructions, are very specific.

The fail safe must be willing.

The fail safe must bleed.

The fail safe must fall.

Only this can close what

unwilling blood has opened.

Captain Wheeler,

are you willing to sacrifice everything for your country?

I must.

No, no, no, no.

You're all right, love.

It's not closed.

Leave me.

Sorry, love.

It's not my style.

Sacrifice.

Must fall.

I need help!

At the top of there.

Cuff him.

Sir!

Yes, sir!

No.

No, wait.

It's coming.
