Ven aqui!

Encontré algo importante?

- Deberiamos dejarlo en paz.
- Vayamos al anciano, él sabré qué hacer.

Esto es malo, muy malo. Nos va a traer
problemas para todos nosotros.

Tenemos que decirselo al Dr Roosevelt.
Inmediatamente.

- Dr Roosevelt?
- What is it?

We found something
I think you should see.

- It's an Amaru.
- I know.

It's fantastic. It's nearly intact.

- We can't take it.
- What do you mean?

They say the body of a female shaman
is sacred to the tribe.

They won't allow us to disturb her.

We are not disturbing her. We're saving her.

You know the situation here.
I thought you could handle these people.

Dr Roosevelt, I think this is dangerous.
I don't think this is right.

Have the piece cleared and packed.
It's going with us.

Mr Horning, are you still here?

Mr Horning?

What the hell...?

How did you learn about
what happened last night?

Tim Decker, a security guard, called me
when he first discovered the blood.

The police say you feel the murder
may be an act of political terrorism.

I think Horning was killed
because of what he was working on.

Is that the... "survey and excavation of
the burial grounds of the Secona Indians"?

This is a letter sent to the State Department
on behalf of the Secona,...

- ..demanding the return of an artifact.
- The Amaru urn.

- It was among the antiquities we rescued.
- Rescued?

When Petroecuador announced plans
to build a pipeline

through the burial grounds,...

..Carl Roosevelt and I organised the dig.

As I understand it, Roosevelt disappeared...

..under circumstances
not unlike the ones here.

The Ecuadorian government claimed
he was carried off in a wild animal attack.

- But that's not what you believe?
- Not after last night.

- Have there ever been any death threats?
- No.

Well, what about the curse? The Secona
believe that great evil would befall...

..anyone moving the remains of an Amaru -
a woman shaman.

That they would be devoured
by the jaguar spirit.

A myth that gained currency among them...

- ..when Dr Roosevelt disappeared.
- I'm sure.

The unfortunate thing is
somebody exploiting it to promote fear,...

..to pressure us into returning the bones -
which I have no intention of doing.

- Can we see it?
- Yes, of course.

Mona!

If someone digs me up in a thousand years,
I hope there's a curse on them too.

They should have left it.
None of this would have happened.

- Do you believe the bones are cursed?
- Might as well be.

Did you know Craig Horning?

Yeah. I've been helping Craig
catalogue the Ecuadorian artifacts.

I'm a PhD candidate at BU.

Did he have any warning this could happen?

Craig? No.

He was so dedicated. He was just doing
the work that Dr Lewton asked him to.

He had no political feelings
about it being here?

- No, not Craig.
- Are you aware that a letter of protest...

..was sent to the State Department
concerning this urn?

I'm aware of several letters of protest.

This one was written by
a man named Alonso Bilac.

Dr Bilac. He was the liaison
with the Secona Indians.

- Is he still with the project?
- No.

He either resigned or was forced out by
Dr Lewton, depending on who you talk to.

Why's that?

Dr Bilac feels the Secona have the right
to determine the fate of their ancestors.

Do you know where we might find him?

- Dr Bilac?
- Yes.

We're with the FBI.

We're investigating the disappearance
of an associate of yours,...

..Craig Horning.

Yes.

May we ask you some questions?

Come in, then.

You were part of the expedition
that brought back the Amaru urn.

- Who told you that?
- Mona Wustner.

I objected from the beginning.

But you were
Dr Roosevelt's liaison in Ecuador.

At what point did you part company
with him on the taking of artifacts?

When I felt like he had gone too far.
Against the wishes of the Secona.

Did you express that to him?

Yes. He wouldn't listen.

Were you speaking for yourself
or for the Indians?

I spent the last six months
living with the Secona,...

..learning from them,...

..coming to understand the nature and...
the depth of their culture.

Well, apparently they've
learned something from you too.

Yes. I've been teaching them
the joys of American bureaucracy.

Dr Lewton believes that
the protest over the Amaru urn...

..has something to do with
Craig Horning's disappearance.

You say "disappearance"
as if you expect to see him alive again.

- What do you think happened to him?
- You don't want to know what I think.

Yes. We would like to know.

We'd be very interested in what you think.

I think whatever happened to Craig Horning
will continue to happen.

Until the bones are returned
to their rightful place.

Let me ask you, Dr Bilac:

How far would you go
to defend the rights of the Seconas?

Farther than writing a letter
to the State Department?

If you think I did this, then you're a fool.

- Where were you last night?
- I was here.

- Alone?
- Yes.

Your investigation is a waste of time.

That's something I can assure you of.

It's nice to meet people
who really believe in something.

You mean the kind
who would kill for their cause?

- Do you think Bilac's a suspect?
- No, I think he's the suspect.

- Based on what?
- Based on the arrogance of his politics,...

..his rift with Dr Lewton,

his sympathy for the Indians
and the lack of any other suspects.

- He did look a little squirrelly back there.
- Maybe he was up late, murdering Horning.

Remember, we don't have a body

and not much more forensic detail
than a lot of blood.

Craig Horning's blood.
What do you think he did with him?

- I'm not sure he did anything.
- You think Bilac's innocent?

That the victim wasn't murdered, but
devoured by a mythological jaguar spirit?

Go with it, Scully.

Why did you lie to them?

You're drawing suspicion
to yourself, Lonnie.

You should have told them the truth.

I'm worried about you.

Let me come over.

Why? Why not?

Dr Lewton's here. I gotta go.
I'll call you later.

- I thought you'd already left.
- I... really need to keep working right now.

- I'd feel better if you weren't alone here.
- The guard knows I'm here.

Was that Dr Bilac on the phone?

Yes.

We have a responsibility, Mona.
To history and posterity.

Dr Roosevelt did as any good
conservationist would have done

in bringing the urn back.

Otherwise it would certainly
have been destroyed.

I know.

Before you get caught up in the politics...
We lose sight of that.

Mona, let me give you a little free advice.

You have a bright future here.

Be careful where you plant your flag.

Oh, Sugar!

- Label that.
- As what?

"Partial rat body part."

Excuse me. Can I have a word with you?

We're done here.

You were working here
when Dr Lewton was killed.

He stopped by my office on his way out.

Did you notice anything out of the ordinary?
Was he behaving strange?

- Did he seem nervous about anything?
- No, not at all.

Did he say anything to you about Dr Bilac?

No, he didn't.

Do you have any idea when the two of them
last spoke to each other?

I really don't know.

I'm gonna give you my card.

Call me if anything comes to mind.

Mulder!

- They turn up a body?
- No.

They've been over the entire museum
grounds. Have you found anything out here?

If Dr Lewton was brought through here,
it'll be hard to determine.

It rained hard last night.

They determined the hood release
had been pulled,

and they found a flashlight by the car.

I'd say he was checking the engine
when he was attacked.

Maybe someone didn't want the car started.

I don't think so, Mulder.

We found two mutilated rat bodies
down in the engine compartment.

Rats?

The museum has always had a rat problem.

They must have crawled
into the engine to keep warm.

You know, Mulder, there's hardly a thing
about these deaths that adds up.

What's the estimate on the time of death?

Between 9.30 and midnight,
when the guard discovered the blood.

It's about the same time as Craig Horning.

- What's the connection?
- I don't know.

- I think Mona Wustner knows something.
- Why?

She seemed to get nervous
when I asked her about Bilac.

Maybe she's protecting him.

I think it's startin' to rain again.

I don't think so, Mulder.

What the hell is that?

Lonnie?

Lonnie?

Don't!

Lonnie?

I came to tell you...

Dr Lewton is dead.

Did you hear what I said?

- Say something, please. You're scaring me.
- I told you not to come here!

Why not?

What's happened to you?

Ever since you came back,
you're acting like some stranger.

- Like someone else.
- The blood has to stop.

You know something, don't you?

You wouldn't understand.

Then help me to understand!

You... You can tell me.
You know that, don't you?

What is that?

Vine of the soul.

Yaje? You're drinking yaje?!

You're sick, Lonnie. You need help.

Don't you see what's happening here?

Can't you see what you're doing to yourself?

Go.

- Let me help you.
- I said get out!

Well, it's human. Small intestine.

There's four feet of jejunum
and another foot of ileum.

- Do we know it's Lewton?
- Yeah. By what he had for lunch.

Corn chowder. And it looks like he'd been
snacking on sunflower seeds all afternoon.

- A man of taste.
- I can't tell how the body was eviscerated.

There are no knife marks on the epithelium.

I imagine that they were torn
or pulled from the body cavity.

- "Torn or pulled"?
- But I can't tell that either.

There was considerable
postmortem predation.

- By what?
- Well, by the size of the bite marks...

A small animal. Most probably a rat.

- More rats.
- Yep.

Scully.

Slow down, Mona.

I was with Dr Bilac.

He frightened me.
I... thought he was gonna hurt me.

What happened, Mona?

He's sick. He doesn't know what he's doing.

- Where is he now?
- At his house. I...

I left him there and
I came back to the museum, but...

..I feel like someone's here.
Like someone's watching me.

I want you to stay where you are.

I'll send Agent Mulder over to get you
right away, OK?

OK.

What is it, Sugar?

Dr Bilac?

- What are you doing here?
- Looking for Mona.

- I got a panic call from her. Where is she?
- I'll show you.

- Mulder.
- Mulder, it's me. Did you find Mona?

No, but her car is parked outside.
She's not here. Did you find Bilac?

No. He's not here either.
But I found some journals.

Listen to this. "I've seen the Amaru."

"Coming out of the jungle with the eyes
of a scorpion, the claws of a jaguar."

"She leaps down from the trees."

"She tears at my flesh, then holds my head
in her hands and eats out my eyes."

- Is there a date of entry on that?
- These are all recent.

Read me the part about
the jaguar in the trees again.

Why?

That may be how the intestines
got up there.

Mulder, I think Bilac's been tripping. I found
something strange in a ceremonial bowl.

And from his writings,
it says that it's a hallucinogen called yaje.

"The vine of the soul."

What the hell's that mean?

He's been praying to the Amaru
through some kind of a ceremony.

What does he want from her?

It looks like he's invoking the curse, Mulder.

Scully, I'm gonna have to call you back.

- Did you find Mona?
- I hope not.

What are you doing here?

I said, what are you doing here?

She's dead.

Where is she?

I don't know.

You told Agent Mulder that she was dead.

You must know where she is.

I didn't kill her.

Then why do you have
blood on your clothes?

I told you. I came here because
the Amaru would not be appeased.

I was afraid for Mona.

I tried to keep her away from all this.

She was an innocent.

She said she was scared.

She said that you became violent.

She wouldn't listen.

Maybe you were too high
to know the difference.

There is no curse, is there, Dr Bilac?

- You are the curse.
- No.

This is more powerful than any man.

This is a spirit you're dealing with,
the spirit of the Amaru.

This is not something
you can put in handcuffs.

I'm gonna ask you one more time, Dr Bilac.

Where is Mona's body?

I don't know.

That man stays in that room until
there's a full search of the museum.

Yes, ma'am.

Hey, Scully! Come here for a second.

It just dawned on me. Why do you think
there's so much water in here?

Well, I just assumed that
one of the toilets had overflowed.

There's water on every seat.

It's more like every toilet overflowed.
Now, why would that happen?

I guess there's only one way to find out.

I hate this.

Rats.

In every toilet.

- How did they get in?
- Agent Mulder.

The police found something outside.

- Mona Wustner?
- No. Sugar, her dog.

He's dead.

Finally, a body.

What did you find?

I have to run a full toxicological to be sure,
but it looks like warfarin poisoning.

- Warfarin?
- Rat poison.

- Someone fed this dog rat poison?
- No.

When I dissected the dog's stomach, I found
an undigested fragment of feline intestine.

The dog ate a cat.

I also found what appears to be
bits of rat fur.

I think the rat ate the poison.

- The cat ate a rat.
- The dog ate the cat.

- More rats, Scully.
- Yeah?

- Don't you think that's significant?
- Significant of what?

There were rats in the car engine,...

..in the bathroom where it looks like
Mona was killed, and now here.

It's an old building. They have a rat problem.
A lot of old buildings do.

It's more than that.
What do the Secona believe?

The jaguar will devour anybody
that desecrates

the burial place of a holy woman.

It's transmigration of the soul
into animal form,

through a ceremony where they drink...

- Yaje.
- Yeah. To summon the spirits.

So what are we talking?
A possessed rat? The return of Ben?

No, I think those rats were trying
to escape from something.

That sent them diving into the toilet?

No, the lids were down.
They were trying to get out.

They were in the sewers,
trying to get away from something.

- Have you been drinking yaje, Mulder?
- Go with it, Scully.

Agent Scully? Bilac's gone.

- How is that possible?
- I don't know.

I went to check on him and he just...
wasn't there.

- Did you leave this door at any time?
- No.

- No one entered?
- Absolutely not.

- What about a rat?
- Sir?

- You ever see any rats in this room?
- All the time. Why?

- How do they get in?
- Through the heating system.

There are vents all over the place.

- Are there any other exits?
- There's only one way out.

- You didn't hear anything?
- Nothing.

I want you to search the entire building,
beginning with every room on this floor.

Hey, Scully, take a look at this.

- Where does that lead?
- The old steam tunnels.

- How do you get down?
- They're sealed up.

Haven't been used for 50 years.

You think Bilac crawled down there?

Unless he was dragged.

The system looks like
it branches off into three directions.

- There must be miles of tunneling.
- And only one way in.

And one way out.

Ladies first?

Which way?

To the left, it looks like.

Follow that rat.

We should be directly
under the museum here.

Scully.

- Scully!
- What is it?

Oh, my God.

It's Dr Lewton. Looks like his eyes
were eaten right out of his sockets.

We still don't know by what.

- What is it?
- I think it's a cat.

Do you think that cat killed these people?

No, these cats.

Do you know which way is out?

Come on, Scully.

No, no. This way.

There's a room here with a vent. Here.

It's Bilac.

- Can you reach up in there?
- Yeah.

Let's move him down here.

OK, I will call you back later.

The search team's on their way up.

They have all the bodies,
including Mona's and Bilac's.

- What about the cats?
- Animal Control is still looking.

- So far they haven't found any sign of them.
- We both saw them. We know they're there.

No one's denying that.
It's just that there are miles of tunnels.

It's gonna take weeks to search them all.

- By then it won't matter.
- What are you talking about?

The assistant secretary of state's office
has called in the Ecuadorian ambassador.

- What for?
- Five people had to die,...

..but they're finally taking it seriously.

- The curse?
- No. Bilac's letter of protest.

The State Department wants the museum
to stay closed until they can act officially.

Are they gonna send back the bones?

The urn will be back by the end of the week.

The Suffolk County coroner ruled
the museum deaths were animal attacks.

What motivated these attacks and why no
more have occurred has not been explained.

To the museum, the Amaru urn was
an artifact from a dying culture,...

..its curse merely a primitive superstition.

Dr Bilac learned there is a world
beyond our own: unseen but powerful...

..and as real as the urn itself

The icons from that world
represent forces that cannot be tamed...

..or collected in a museum.

The curse that struck the museum
was the failure to understand...

..that there are powers
that should not be disturbed.

That some things are better left buried.

I made this!
