Relic Hunter (PAL)
220 The Royal Ring

Take this ring
and remember.

[to himself]
as my heir to the throne,

I demanded a son.

(king henry:)
she defied me...

Deprived me.

My will was not done.

Well,

What do you have
there?

Your mother's ring.

Elizabeth, I have a
little game for you.

We'll put it
somewhere safe

Until you're old enough
to play the game.

Ugh, I can't find a
thing in here.

I wish we could move
back to our old office.

Have you ever heard
the phrase

"a disorganized desk is a
sign of a disorganized mind"?

No. Did you ever
hear the saying,

"nigel's a pain
in the butt"?

Very droll.

[phone ringing]

Ancient studies.

Yes. May I say who's
calling?

Preston bailey, uh huh,
of the british museum.

Just a minute.

My brother.

Tell him...

I'm in the himalayas

And you don't expect me
back for a year or two.

It's not for you.

What?

Sydney, preston bailey
for you.

I never knew you had
a brother.

Well, I'm trying to
forget it myself.

What's he like?

Arrogant, vain,

Inflexible, impossible.

[sarcastically] gee, how could
two brothers be so different?

Exactly. That's why I
haven't seen him for years.

But brothers are supposed
to be close,

Share things, do things
for each other.

You obviously don't
know my brother.

Come on, he can't
be that bad.

You don't understand.

My brother is...

Brilliant, if what
he says is true.

What?

He's uncovered a 16th
century parchment

That could lead to the
royal ring of anne boleyn.

Wasn't she married to that
henry guy with all the wives?

Henry viii, queen
elizabeth's father.

Elizabeth was obsessed
with her mother's ring

But never found it.

I'll bet we can.

You don't understand.

All our lives,

He's tried to be
better then me.

He got the job I was to
get at the british museum.

(claudia:)well, just look
at it this way.

If you'd gotten that job,

You never would've met me.

Don't rub it in.

(sydney:)nigel, you think you
could put your differences aside?

We have a relic
to find.

I'm really not looking
forward to this.

(preston:)ah...

Hi, sydney fox.

Preston bailey.

It's a great pleasure
to meet you.

You're a bit of a
legend here, you know.

Well, thank you.

You two of you
have met.

Yes, we're brothers...

Ah, I see.

Well, thanks for
coming, nigel.

I know we've had our
differences, podge,

But I hope this will be a chance
for me to make it up to you.

Podge?

(preston:)yes, he was a bit of
a butterball when he was younger.

Another of his
nicknames was...

Look, are we here to discuss
my totally unjustified nicknames

Or to find the royal
ring of anne boleyn, eh?

Yes, I think we should
focus on the mission at hand.

You mentioned finding
a document?

A 16 century poem

I recently discovered

In one of henry viii's
hunting lodges in maidstone.

Unfortunately, the
bottom line,

Where the signature
should've been, is damaged.

But if you'll note the
sweep of the descenders,

They're precisely characteristic
of henry's handwriting.

Handwriting analysis
can be tricky.

That's very astute of
you to recognize.

They're meeting with
preston.

It's a poem addressed
to "eve"

Which I think is his
daughter, elizabeth.

I believe it's also a
riddle that could lead

To uncovering the royal ring
of her mother, anne boleyn.

Are you saying that
henry hid the ring

And then taunted the
future queen?

Absolutely.

We all know the man
was a butcher,

Having his wife's head chopped off just
because she couldn't bear him a son.

Wait a minute,

I can't believe that elizabeth
never figured out the poem.

We're talking about one of the
most brilliant women in history.

Well, fortunately, I
now have one of the most

Brilliant women of our
time to help me find it.

Bailey!

What are you doing
showing that to anyone,

Especially an american
relic hunter?

(preston:)doctor, if
you know professor fox,

You'll know that she's a scholar
as well as a relic hunter.

This is anthony curaton,
our senior curator.

Yes, yes, I'm quite aware
of professor fox's reputation

And I can assure you
that this museum

Has been successfully
collecting artifacts

For over a century with
our own capable resources.

(syd:)just trying to
help, dr curatin.

We have all the help we need
to pursue the matter ourselves.

Thank you very much,
professor fox. And bailey...

[together]yes?

If you value your
position here,

Do not in future breach
the museum security.

Might be time to brush
up the old resume.

His bark is worse
than his bite.

Well, never mind,
preston.

It's not your fault

We came to london

On a wild goose chase,

Not entirely your fault.

I never intended to
give you the original.

Why don't you
take this copy?

Have a look at it

And we can discuss
it tonight

At my house over
dinner.

You can see where nigel and I grew up.

That would be very
interesting.

We'll have roast beef
and yorkshire pudding

And a special surprise
for you, podge.

That fool bailey

Has invited sydney fox
here to help find the ring.

Sydney fox?

She's coming to
london?

She's here already.

I left her in
bailey's office.

Why would he bring her
all the way over here?

Apparently, he
doesn't feel

We have the
resources

To find the ring
on our own.

I am confident you'll
prove him wrong, mr palmer.

I can assure
you I will.

But this does make the chase
that much more interesting.

I suggested that she return to
the united states immediately.

I doubt she'll
take your advice.

Sydney fox is a very
headstrong young woman.

You have a rather high
opinion of her abilities.

She's a worthy
opponent

And a delectable
one at that.

I'm going to enjoy this little
adventure more than I thought.

Make sure you don't
enjoy yourself too much.

The acquisition of that ring
could be the apogee of my career.

Don't worry, doctor.

You've provided a more than
generous arrangement for my services.

I don't intend to
disappoint.

(syd:)"as a jester
toys with danger,

Springing insults
with a grin,

Vile falsehood boxed
inside leeds

To god's mortal
sin.

And the sign of my love
that you wore with such glee,

You must find by
my likeness

But first you must
see

That the ring is the key
to the ring left to thee."

What do you think?

Well, he wasn't much
of a poet, was he?

Well, this seems
pretty clear.

"the sign of my love that
she wore with such glee,"

That's got to be
the ring.

"the ring is the key to
the ring left to thee."

Now, what, there
are two rings?

Well, he had a lot
of rings.

He had a lot of
jewellery.

Maybe it's in the
crown jewels.

Maybe. Or maybe he's referring
to another type of ring,

A... A circus ring,

A riding ring,

A ring of people.

Well, then it could be
a million other things.

Maybe preston's got
a few ideas.

Hmm?

Let me see that.

Wow, so this is where
nigel grew up.

It's lovely.

You haven't
changed much.

(preston:)I kept most
of mom and dad's things

Out of respect.

Have you made any headway with the poem?

Not a lot yet.

We could do an analysis of each
line from the standpoint of...

[nigel playing the piano]
(
)

Nigel, you didn't
tell me you played.

Product of three lessons
a week from mrs latrice,

A woman with a remarkable
love of music.

And an incredible
moustache.

This was our mother's
favourite piece.

Nigel won third
prize

In the prestigious
porter-highland piano competition.

Preston won first
prize.

Two talented
brothers.

Preston, do you
still play?

Oh, a bit now
and then.

With the london
symphony orchestra.

On and off.

[knocking]

Why don't you see
who that is, podge?

All right.

Amanda?

Preston said
you'd be here,

But I could hardly
believe it.

It's lovely to
see you, nigel.

Sydney, I'd like you
to meet amanda reardon.

Amanda, this is
sydney fox.

Hi. Nice to
meet you.

Amanda and
I were...

I haven't seen amanda
since I left for the states.

Preston, how thoughtful
of you to invite her.

Well, we've been spending a
lot of time together anyway,

Haven't we, pigeon?

You know what?
I... I...

I think it's probably
best

If I don't take part in
this particular session.

Why not?

I... I...

Oh... Oh, no,

One of your migraines
again?

Yeah, yeah,
exactly.

You stay, I'll
go.

Sorry.

Never mind, it'll be
the 3 of us.

Amanda's very good at
riddles, aren't you?

(amanda:)I always
win at charades.

Brains and beauty.

I'm thinking I should
see nigel to the hotel,

Make sure he's
okay.

Maybe we should just continue
this tomorrow morning.

All right.

I'll just see
myself out.

Strange.

Nigel never used
to get migraines.

You know what
really gets me?

He's lured me back
here

Just to flaunt his
relationship with amanda.

Well, preston's immaturity
is his problem, not yours.

You know what
they say,

It's not what happens
to you that's important,

It's how you react
to what happens.

Pigeon?

Pigeon was my pet
name for amanda.

You don't steal another man's
pet name for his ex-girlfriend.

That should be punishable
by law.

This visit's brought up a lot of
old history for you, hasn't it?

I'll be okay.

If you want to go home,

I can handle this myself.

No, I'm not going to
give him the satisfaction.

You and me, syd,

We're a team and I'm not
letting him split this up.

Don't you think you should save
some brain cells for the poem?

I assure you, I'm
perfectly fine.

Come on, I think some cool, fresh air

Will do us both
some good.

I was hoping to keep
working on the poem.

You up for it?

Absolutely fine.

Yes, all right, I've
had a few beers,

But it's excellent
for lateral thinking.

Good for lateral
walking, too.

Now, what we have to do is think
exactly like king henry viii.

Exactly.

Now, we know that henry
was into jokes and riddles

And puns and word
play of all kinds.

Which is why we need to look
at each of the words in the poem

For all of its
meanings.

(bad guy:)
excuse me.

Can you show me where
to find rivington mews?

(nigel:)hey! Come on,
syd, all you've got.

Watch it, syd.

Come on.

(nigel:)I liked
that one.

Come on!

It's a knockout.

Stand back, syd.

Nigel!

Lowlife.

When I said "lowlife" I
was referring to myself.

Back off.

Back off.

Back off, syd.

Nigel.

Sorry, syd.

(police:)you were
.Very lucky.

We don't find many
bags with credit cards

And cash still
in them.

Thank you.

Not that lucky.

The poem's missing.

That robbery was
no coincidence.

An old rival
relic hunter.

Most likely.

I should've made more
copies of the poem.

I would have.

Well, never
mind that.

Let's just see if we
can remember the poem.

We have to come up
with the exact

Words if we want any
chance of deciphering it.

"as heir to my throne,
I demanded a son."

"she defied me"

Or something like
defied.

Deprived.

"my will was not done
so as god demanded..."

Commanded.

That's what I
meant.

"...She did pay
with her life."

Great. That's
great.

Keep going.

"as a jester toys
with danger..."

What's the next
line?

Oh... I can't
remember.

Wait, I have it:

"springing insults
with a grin."

Oh, I'm not surprised
you remembered that one.

What do you mean?

Nothing. Nothing.

The next line will come
easily to you as well.

"vile falsehood,"
wasn't it?

Yes, as a matter
of fact it was.

What are you
trying to say?

Guys...

Nothing. Nothing.

I'm sure it's a coincidence
you're involved with

The love of my
life.

It is. Amanda just
happened to show up

At the museum a
few days ago,

We went for a
coffee,

One thing led to
another...

Very rapidly.

"leeds" was spelled
this way, right?

(together:)yeah.

Was that the 16 century
spelling of leads, l-e-a-d-s?

(together:)no.

Well, then maybe he was
referring to the city of leeds?

Leeds castle in kent?

Leeds castle.

Leeds castle

Was one of henry viii's
favourite places.

He used to hunt there as
a child with his father.

Maybe this is the break
that we've been looking for.

Where is it?

How far is it?

Can we drive there?

Oh, I can't believe
I slept so long.

You should have woken
me, pooh bear.

I didn't even know
you were in there.

She means me.

We really should
get going.

Right.

We have to drive
to leeds castle.

(amanda:)oh, I've
never been.

I'll be ready in
two minutes.

This is actually a
professional visit.

Well, I'll be quiet
as a mouse.

You won't even notice
me.

(amanda:)this
castle's amazing.

There's been a royal palace
here since the 13th century.

1278 to be
precise.

Tour's just about
to begin.

Why don't the three
of you join in,

See what kind of information
you can pick up on henry viii.

Tour?

Sydney, I wrote three papers
on henry viii at oxford.

I teach classes
on his reign.

All of which is useless right
now for what we're after.

I want you to
join in.

Try and keep a
low profile

While I check out the
more private areas.

(tour guide:)so if you have any
questions at any point along the way,

Please don't hesitate
to ask.

All right, these stone
busts represent men

Who figured prominently in
the history of the castle.

Now, this one in particular
depicts one of the more

Colourful characters who
lived here

In the latter part of the
18th century.

I'm sure some of you are familiar
with the reign of george iii.

While he was having difficulties
with the colonies in america,

His majesty suffered from an incurable
illness now known to be poltheria,

Which causes all sorts of...

History is so
fascinating.

A lot of history
in this place.

Some of it's not
so ancient.

Nigel, I know this
must be awkward

And I'm sorry.

Do you really care
for my brother?

It was an immediate
chemistry.

Maybe it's because he
reminded me so much of you.

That doesn't actually
make me feel any better.

You weren't the only
one who was hurt.

I made a mistake.

By the time I'd realized
it, you had already gone

To america.

If I'd known, I never
would have gone.

No, you...

You did the right
thing.

You've become an
adventurer,

A man of the world.

I have?

Well, I suppose
I have, actually.

Nigel,

I didn't come on this tour
just to see the castle.

But... Preston.

I know and I do care
for him but...

I don't know.

It's confusing.

Is everything
all right?

(together:)fine.

(tour guide:)these arches are of a style
out of period from the original castle.

These are part of the many
improvements made by henry viii.

Is it true henry was
a talented poet?

He dabbled in all
the arts.

Are there any personal artifacts
of henry viii in the castle?

There are many
valuable items

But unfortunately, no, nothing
personal of henry viii's.

Henry viii was rumoured to have enjoyed
playing this organ for hours on end.

So there is an
artifact here.

Well, an organ is
not an artifact.

It could be an
artifact.

No, an artifact
normally is...

Look, you stay
out of this.

When you've quite
finished...

Go ahead.

I was going to say
that in fact henry wrote

The tune which tolls
every hour

To this day on the bells
of the local church.

I suppose we could say that the chimes
are henry's legacy to leeds castle.

This way.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Sir, please do not
step over the ropes.

Oh, sorry.

There's...

There's a plaque there
with a name on it.

Cornelius major, a famed
organ maker of the period.

Did he know
henry viii?

I don't know.

Remember at the beginning when
I said if you had any questions,

You should just
ask?

Yes.

I've changed my
mind.

Palmer?

What are you
doing here?

Well, I'm here on
official business

Sanctioned by the
british museum.

That's a laugh.

You can laugh all
you like

When the guards throw
you out for trespassing.

(syd:)that's the
original.

So you've got curatin
along for the ride.

What's this, the same
deal as cairo?

Use a museum's influence and
connections to find the relic,

Then tell them that
you couldn't

And fatten up your
offshore account?

No, I thought I'd
go your route,

Turn it over to
the museum

So that hordes of
chubby tourists

In shorts, black socks,
and cowboy hats

Can gawk at it with their
beady, uncomprehending eyes.

I wonder what curatin
would say

If he heard about your
little adventure in cairo.

You're not going to
get it this time.

Oh, I think I am.

Stooping a bit low
these days, are you?

Meaning what?

Hiring purse snatchers
to do your dirty work.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Yeah, right.

The room we've
just been in

Was also used for
celebrations.

This is outrageous.

Security! Security!

Good, isn't she?

Can you do that?

Yeah.

(tour guide:)security!

She just attacked
me.

Take her away. She's
a mad woman.

(security:)miss, we'll
have no more of that.

I've never been thrown
out of a castle before.

Actually, it was
quite exciting.

Ah... I do hope you
enjoyed the tour.

Look at him gloat.

I'm checking into another
hotel after dinner.

Everything else
is booked.

If curatin only knew
about that guy.

(preston:)you saw how
curatin reacted to you.

He'd never believe anything
you tell him about palmer.

Yeah, you're right.

Now we have two
sources of competition.

Which is why we to keep
working on the poem.

I wonder what's
keeping amanda.

(nigel:)that still leaves
us with the two rings.

Any luck with the poem?

(preston:)we think
there are 4 key words:

"jester", "boxed",
"likeness" and "ring".

2 references
to a ring,...

[chimes]

Preston, shut up.

Really, nigel, no need
to be rude.

Listen.

[chimes]

That's it, of course.

Henry loved puns and
wordplay.

What?

The line, "the ring is the
key to the ring left to thee".

The church bell is
ringing.

Ah, that sort of ring.
Excellent.

What does that tell
us exactly?

It's ringing in
what key?

C-major.

I still don't understand.

(nigel:)the organ had a plaque
with the maker's name on it,

Cornelius major.

(sydney:)c-major.

There's a link between
the ring and the organ.

Nigel, you are brilliant.

Nigel, how's that steak?

Delicious.

Can I have a piece?

Sure.

Sometimes, it's better
not to ask.

We have to get a closer
look at that organ.

They wont be letting you back
inside the castle, sydney.

A lack of invitation has
never stopped us before.

You're going to break in?

(sydney:)I prefer to think of
it as making an informal visit.

Can I help?

[together]
no, it's too...

It's too dangerous.

(sydney:)they're right,

It's safer here,
amanda.

Nigel...

Be careful.

I examined the castle's
historical records.

There are several references to
henry's visits there with elizabeth

That I think might be connected.

[knocking]

Someone's at the door.

I'll call you later.

I need to check out
the shower, sir.

There doesn't seem
to be a problem.

Not yet. I need to make
sure it stays that way.

Yes, well, let's make
it quick, eh?

I'm busy.

Who are you?

The original.

Interesting.

Where'd you get this?

Who is your buyer?

I don't have a buyer.

I was officially hired
by the british museum.

Curatin?

Aren't you
worried

About the fact we're
breaking the law?

No risk, no ring.

Now preston, the
worst case...

We would be forced
to leave,

You'd lose your
job and reputation,

And maybe a short
prison sentence.

[dogs barking]

Oh no!

[barking getting louder]

A harmless diversionary
tactic.

Sorry. Thank you.

You're welcome.

(sydney:)which way?

That way.

Over here.

What are we looking
for?

A key, a lever, a secret
compartment, anything.

I don't know.

There's one more
possibility.

[cracking]

[squeaking]

What are you doing?

[
]

Henry's composition that played
on the church bells.

Not so loud.

Pianissimo, pianissimo.

[
]

(guard:)the organ.

This way.

They're coming.

Nothing's happening.

It's a stupid idea.

[
]

[rumbling]

You were saying?

It's a boy and a
jack-in-the-box.

(preston:)I know that
jack- in-the-box.

It's at the museum.

It used to belong
to henry viii.

(nigel:)then that must
be young henry.

Remember the line, "you
must find by my likeness"?

This is his likeness.

The poem said
"boxed in".

Wait a minute.

"as a jester toys with
danger," so on and so on,

"boxed inside".

(preston:)the ring's inside
the jack-in-the-box.

We must get back
to london at once.

We did it.

You have the ring?

No, but we know
where it is.

Oh, this is so exciting.
Where is it?

(nigel:)it's in a jack-in-the-box
in the british museum.

Under preston's
nose all the time.

You saying I should
have known?

No, you needed me
to solve the poem.

I found the poem...

It was my ability
to interpret...

(nigel:)rubbish. It
was my breakthrough...

Okay, guys, be ready
to go in 10 minutes.

(amanda:)I'll get
our bills prepared.

Well done, nigel.

Palmer.

I never thought this could
lead to anyone's death.

Strangely, I kind of
liked the guy.

This is out
of control.

What have we done?

Nothing.

No, but someone wants
to set us up...

Set me up.

What do you mean?

I was thrown out
of the castle

For fighting with
palmer.

Now he's dead on
my hotel room floor.

You've been set up.

Who could've done
this?

Maybe the guy that
grabbed my bag in the park.

(preston:)right. Let's
call the police and explain.

If we phone them,

It'll show we've
nothing to hide.

[sirens]

Guess someone already
made that call.

We'd better get
out of here.

We just have to tell
them the truth, right?

Yes, eventually, but
that'll take hours.

We don't have time.

My guess is whoever
killed palmer

Is one step ahead
of us. Come on.

But we'd be leaving
the scene of a crime.

You can leave with us or stay
here and explain yourself.

Wait for me.

Hello?

Hello?

Who are you?

The new owner of
anne boleyn's ring,

At least until I
find a buyer for it.

How did you...
Where is palmer?

You don't have to
harm me.

But I don't know where
the ring is.

That's all right. I do.

Come with me,
please.

Could you deactivate the
alarm and open it, please?

Sir, are you sure?

I'm showing something to
our visitor, professor...

Professor peter smith.

Yes, I understand but
your own procedures...

Shut your mouth and
do what the man says

Or I'll kick your ass
through the skylight.

The professor is
american.

That'll be all,
thank you.

You can resume
your rounds.

Sir, are you cer...?

Get it. Come on.

This is fragile.

It has to be handled
with the greatest care.

[footsteps]

(preston:)down here.

That way. Move
or die.

It's gone. I can't
believe it. It must be...

Sh.

[door closing]

That way.

But that leads down
to the basement.

Okay, you two take
care of the guard.

Nigel, come with me.

Whoever it is,
distract them.

Huh?

Get them talking.

Oh, I'm so glad
you're here.

I've solved the poem.

The ring must be
in the box.

I found the clue, you see,
and I was checking to see...

Where is he?

Who?

(nigel:)you stay right
here, doc.

(amanda:)we have to go and
see if they're all right.

But sydney did say
we should stay here.

And what about
him?

Well done, as usual.

(amanda:)yes, most
impressive.

Amanda?

Do you have
the ring?

It's still in
the box.

I don't believe this.

I always did love that
naive quality of yours.

What about my
naive quality?

(nigel:)obviously,
she liked you

After you knew about
the poem and the ring.

Why kill palmer?

He was competition, he and
his partner, the old doc.

Doctor curatin.

So what now? Kill
all of us?

Only if necessary.
Open the box.

I'm going to call
the police now.

Take one more step
and I shoot preston.

Promise?

Nigel, I know we've
had our differences but...

And while you're
about it,

I suggest r
partner, too.

You think he's going
to split the money?

Want to, sweetie?

Sweetie?

I got a better
idea.

Shoot the blabbermouth.

Well done, nigel.

Sorry about that,
preston.

I had to do that to
get the gun back.

That's all right, you
did save my life, after all.

Back together again.

(policeman:)...Confirming
suspects in custody

And en route to
headquarters.

Come along now,
miss.

She won't be calling anyone
pooh bear for a while, will she?

(sydney:)well, let's see if we
were right about old henry.

Seems that doctor curatin

Has a slightly higher opinion
of american relic hunters now.

I must say, it was enjoyable
watching his expression

As he apologized
to you.

Thank you, professor fox.

This has been a very
special adventure for me.

It has for me,
too, preston.

Why don't I go on ahead
so you two can say goodbye.

Look, podge... Nigel,

I know I didn't make life easy
for you when we were younger.

Maybe that's okay.

You know, they say what doesn't
kill you makes you stronger so...

Ah, yes, but I do
owe you an apology.

I'll never try to
overshadow you again.

You have your life,
I have mine

And we can both
respect that.

It's a deal.

How's the stomach?

Fine. So tell me
about sydney.

Is she dating anybody?
