Relic Hunter 317 Authur's Cross

(man:)hic iacet sepultus inclitus

Rex arturious in insula avalonia.

[♪]

Don't tell me that you're not

The least bit curious

Why inspector doyle called us.

I am not the least bit curious

In why inspector doyle called us.

Some place you'd rather be?

Preparing the transparencies for tomorrow...

For one.

Come on, you got karen to do that.

She's perfectly capable.

Yes, she is, isn't she?

Oh, you mean she's come a long way

For someone who first showed up at our offices

In an outfit last seen in a disco.

So far, I barely have anything

To do around the office anymore.

I could take the rest of the week off.

Actually, there's a rather nice exhibition down...

(hubbard:)don't waste my time, doyle!

I came in here voluntarily.

I came in here because

You requested me to come in here.

Don't expect to get this kind of

Cooperation from me in the future.

I can promise you.

Hubbard...

Did you see that?

Professor fox.

Inspector doyle.

Sorry to keep you.

Nigel bailey.

Thank you both for coming in.

You said you needed our help?

Well, I'm sure you spend plenty

Of time examining mummies,

That sort of thing.

So what I have to show you shouldn't

Prove to be too gruesome.

Gruesome?

Interested now?

Oh, vaguely.

(inspector:)mr. Antony glover,

Killed by a blow to the head

From a very heavy, blunt instrument.

I'm hoping you can help me identify

What it might have been.

The weapon left traces

Of a lead oxide residue.

The reason for my call is that our

Spectrometer dated the lead

Between 400 and 500 ad.

You think he was killed with a relic?

As I said when I called,

We were rather hoping you could tell us.

{ Advertisement }

(nigel:)the marks, they...

They have a sort of pattern, don't they?

{pos(192,200)}And there on...

{pos(192,200)}All around the outside of them...

{pos(192,200)}Is that the end section of a cross?

(syd:)inspector, have you got a mirror?

Thank you.

{pos(192,180)}Ltus... In... Inclitus...

Rex... Arturious...

{pos(192,200)}Hic iacet sepultus inclitus...?

{pos(192,200)}Rex arturious in insula avalonia.

How could you possibly know the whole inscription?

You know what this means if we're right?

{pos(192,200)}That the murder weapon is the

Legendary cross of king arthur.

You really think it's possible?

{pos(192,200)}The cross disappeared from glastonbury abbey

Sometime during the reformation.

This is incredible.

A twenty-first century man

Killed by a fifth century burial marker

For England's most famous king.

Surprised, inspector?

{pos(192,200)}On the contrary.

{pos(192,200)}From what you've just told me,

Several details in this case

Are starting to line up.

(inspector:)the man who barged out of

{pos(192,200)}My office is winston hubbard.

{pos(192,200)}The earl of triliger?

He and glover were both obsessed

With finding the cross of king arthur.

Recently, before witnesses,

Hubbard threatened to kill glover.

(syd:)why didn't you have him arrested?

(inspector:)I tried... Lack of evidence.

(nigel:) and now?

(inspector:)I'll need more than your word to a

Judge that the cross killed glover.

What if we did a little relic hunting?

Sydney, we have a seminar to prepare.

Well, my superiors

Want me to steer clear

Of hubbard for the time being.

However, a couple of relic hunters

Nosing around on their own...

We'd need you to make the introduction.

Anything else?

All your files, naturally.

And full access to the

Location of glover's murder.

Tintern abbey.

We're probably going to want to see

Glover's research as well.

I'll ring mrs. Glover.

When should I say you'll be dropping by?

How long will you be?

Not long.

Okay, well I rescheduled your seminars,

But don't forget you have that meeting

With lord atherton tomorrow.

Who?

The lord atherton,

Who offered to endow a chair

In the ancient studies department.

Oh, that lord atherton.

And if we didn't go,

We'd be sure to be here.

And if we found king arthur's cross?

(karen:)I guess I'll reschedule lord atherton.

Got everything?

Yup.

(syd:)obvious question:

What was glover doing

Here at tintern abbey?

According to legend,

Arthur was buried at glastonbury abbey.

Or reburied, as the case may be,

Since no one knew when he lived.

There isn't an arthur legend

I've ever come across that mentions

Tintern or links the two.

Which, as we both know,

Doesn't mean diddly.

There are a thousand ways that

The cross could wind up here.

Glover obviously found one out.

Both abbeys were run by monastic orders.

The cistericians here...

The benedictines at glastonbury.

Competing orders. No links.

However, there's speculation that during

The dissolution of the monasteries,

That the monks of glastonbury tried

To hide their most valuable relics.

Which certainly would include king arthur's cross.

Might possibly have hid them here?

In a protected valley where

It's unlikely anyone would look.

(syd:)this is where glover's body was found:

The monks' day room.

No sign of the cross.

Now what do murderers do

With their murder weapons?

Get rid of it, destroy it.

Okay. But what if it's arthur's cross?

Worth a fortune.

Hide it.

Right, but where?

The same place the monks hid it during

The dissolution of the monasteries.

So, find the original hiding place,

Find the cross?

Obvious question.

Did glover find it here?

I feel like I'm in an episode of csi.

He was certainly killed by the cross,

So it must have been here in some capacity.

I don't know.

It looks like there's been

A lot of restoration.

We won't be finding it in

Any of the usual hiding places.

No, it's not very promising.

What's this?

What?

Looks like the sod's been pulled away.

(nigel:)is that an inscription?

Sure looks like it.

It's in olde english.

"behold the..."

(syd:)hang on.

"behold the rood..."

Ancient word for "cross"...

"...Whence heavenly light casts

Its glow upon the shield of...

...Arthur."

[♪]

Mrs. Glover.

You must be the relic hunters

Inspector doyle mentioned.

Sydney fox. Nigel bailey.

If this is a bad time for you,

We could always come back.

I want my husband's killer found

As much as inspector doyle.

(syd:)did he have a workshop or

A studio that we should be looking at?

(mrs. Glover:) no.

That's funny.

I don't seem to be able

To get past the door,

It's so empty in there.

Don't worry, you...

You'll find everything just as he left it.

I understand that this must be difficult for you,

But I have to ask:

Were you familiar with your husband's work, mrs glover?

Sarah, please.

Generalities, really, not much more.

We uncovered an inscription at tintern abbey.

Did he ever mention it?

[car stopping]

Bastard.

(nigel:)that's hubbard.

What's he doing here?

Probably coming with an eviction notice.

He's your landlord?

He owns the land this cottage lies on

And hundreds more like it.

(syd:)oh, please, put the knife down.

He killed my husband.

An eye for an eye.

We've come a bit further than that, haven't we?

That could have hurt.

So they let you out, have they?

Pulled rank, did you?

(hubbard:)sarah, listen...

The nobility can get away with

Anything nowadays, can't they?

Even murder.

Now, mrs. Glover...

I didn't kill antony.

You did, just as you threatened to

In front of dozens of witnesses.

I just want... What?

Throw me out of my house?

No.

I want you to stay as long as you want.

Well, what then?

I want to take a look at his research.

He was looking for arthur's cross.

I was looking.

Well now he's dead, I...

How dare you.

Good thing she didn't have the knife.

(hubbard:)mrs. Glover, I...

Sarah.

Come on.

We'll be seen.

You're mad.

I need you back.

Tell me you'll stay

With me no matter what.

[car horn]

(syd:)digital photos of tintern abbey on here.

There's nothing obvious to indicate

Why he was interested in tintern,

Or if he expected to find the cross there.

There are also a number of photos of

This ruined castle here.

Do you recognize it?

(nigel:)that looks like chepstow castle in wales.

Hm. No dates on these?

Bring up the display on the laptop,

It will tell you what date the...

Photographs were taken.

The day he was killed.

I'll copy the photos onto my laptop,

See if I can't find anymore clues.

Ow!

What?

Something sharp.

Geez.

A piece of stained glass.

Looks old- fashioned.

Old-fashioned, but newly made.

What was glover doing with this?

Have you hurt yourself?

Um, just a small cut.

It's not deep.

Can I bother you for a plaster?

(syd:)is this your husband's digital camera?

Yes, he took it everywhere.

I'd like to take these photos with us,

If we could.

Of course.

Where to?

Chepstow castle.

Then onto tintern,

Just like the photos.

[♪]

There are several pictures of this tower,

From a number of different angles.

Ah, nice of the workmen

To leave it open for us.

[♪]

Going over there, are we?

Well, glover did.

Are you sure we have to do this?

You saw the photos.

The last glover took are from below.

Did I mention those pants look great on you?

You what?

Argh.

Right.

Where do the photos say to go next?

And it better not involve a dungeon.

This is where the photos end.

They don't show a door,

A secret panel,

A crypt or anything.

Did you hear that?

You know, I was just about

To say the same thing.

Listen.

Move!

{ Advertisement }

Nigel!

That was hubbard's bentley.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

That the pictures were planted?

To change the internal clocks,

And change the datestamps on

Those cameras is dead easy.

That's a poor choice of words.

Whoever did this wanted to make it

Easy for us to find the place.

Which puts a certain driver of

A black bentley at the top of the list.

[♪]

Is lord hubbard expecting you?

Yes, tell him sydney fox is here.

And nigel bailey.

Emma, who is it?

My name's sydney fox,

I'm a professor of ancient studies,

This is nigel bailey.

You were at doyle's office the other day.

What do you want?

(syd:)is that your bentley parked out front?

Yes.

Were you driving it about an hour ago?

This is beginning to sound as if

I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

We were almost killed looking for

King arthur's cross earlier.

And since I'm accused of killing

Another person doing the same,

You thought you'd pop around

And see if I did it.

(hubbard:)let's say I am the

Criminal mastermind you say.

Would I leave the bentley in front or hide it?

I've been here all day.

However...

If you do find the cross,

You'd do me a great service.

You'll clear me of a murder charge.

(hubbard:)I can't believe it.

The cross was used to kill glover?

We thought you knew.

Doyle held that little detail back.

That explains why he

Called in two relic hunters.

Actually, our interest is purely academic.

The cross has a tremendous historical value.

[door opens]

So, glover had found the cross.

We were in a heated competition and, yes,

I did hope to beat him to it.

But no, I didn't kill him.

Then help us,

And we'll help you prove that.

Well, all my research is here.

I don't know what you

May find in it that I didn't.

But you're welcome to try.

Hello?

Hello?

Sarah?

Sarah?

You've kept me waiting.

You know what that does

When I have something that needs attending to.

Slow down.

We haven't even started.

It's not smart for us to risk

Being seen like this.

Not now.

People won't understand.

About us?

Those two relic hunters are nosing around,

And the police...

How would it look to them?

Do you think I want this?

I don't.

I just don't want anything to go wrong.

It's too good.

Well, what could happen?

For starters, they might think

We killed your husband.

You don't really believe that.

Someone did.

I don't know who...

Although I have my suspicions.

We just have to be more careful,

Or they'll pin it on us.

Think about what you're doing here, mick.

You're breaking up with me.

What? No.

I know when I'm being put aside, mick,

I've got a sixth sense for an unfaithful man.

Sarah, no.

I'm trying to protect you.

You promised.

Emma.

You think she's to do with this.

I am totally done with her.

Totally, sarah.

I told you.

It's been over for months.

Alright.

I think we should split up

For a little while.

At least until all this blows over.

[♪]

Thank you.

You know, this is

The most fabulous collection of

Illuminated manuscripts and folios

I've seen outside a museum.

I was thinking the same thing myself.

(hubbard:)thank you, emma.

You have a magnificent collection

Of illuminated manuscripts.

Not to mention a rather large one.

Thank you.

The collection grew accidentally,

Out of my search for

One illumination in particular.

It took me years and

A small fortune to find it.

(syd:)medieval book of psalms.

It's stunning.

Illuminated by the monks of tintern abbey.

The only one in existence.

Forgive me, but what does the book of psalms

Have to do with king arthur?

What's more to the point,

What does one illumination of king arthur

Have to do with the book of psalms?

There.

That's incredible detail.

You say this is the only

One that refers to arthur?

Somehow, in my heart, I know that this

Is connected to the mystery of the lost cross.

(nigel:)I know that look.

I know that look too.

You don't think hubbard did it, do you?

Granted, hubbard's no boy scout.

But every instinct is telling me

To look for the killer under another rock.

He had motive.

Do you look at him and see cold blooded?

I don't think he's stupid or

Callous enough to follow glover,

Kill him and then leave the body

Where it can be found.

He had motive and he was alone

The night of the killing.

No witnesses, that's opportunity.

Motive and opportunity

Don't always add up to murder.

Okay, what's your first rule of relic hunting?

History lies?

Okay, another one.

Something about trusting the evidence.

Look, let's just say I agree with you...

I don't, but let's just say I do...

Who else is there?

No one right now.

Because only hubbard had the motive

To follow glover to tintern abbey.

And when he saw the cross,

He killed his competition in a fit of jealous rage.

Hid the cross,

Never expecting that the weapon could be traced.

There's another thing.

When he was showing us his manuscripts,

I had karen do some checking.

He's paid millions for those manuscripts,

Millions that he doesn't have.

He's broke.

He could always sell those back.

He wouldn't get the same price

He paid for them in auction.

Karen found out something else:

He's approached major museums

And galleries for a finder's fee.

That's the third rule

Of relic hunting you wanted.

What?

Follow the money.

I know your famous gut

Is telling you otherwise, but...

All I need is the proof to back it up.

(syd:)we believe someone tampered with

Your husband's digital camera.

You mean deliberately?

It appears the datestamp was altered.

Well, why would anyone do that?

To lead us into a trap.

There is only one person who

Would gain by killing you...

Hubbard.

It's possible.

(nigel:)mrs. Glover...

Sarah, um,

Last time I was here I cut my

Finger on a piece of glass.

Do you have any idea where that piece is?

I thought it was junk,

I threw it away.

Well, if you could remember...

{ Advertisement }

And you saw no one?

No.

No.

(sarah:)who else has to die before

I can convince you of it, inspector?

It was hubbard.

You saw him?

Well, who else?

First antony and then me.

I'm not sure that the target was her.

Someone tried to kill nigel and me earlier.

Gonna keep that to yourself?

It was at chepstow castle.

I was going to call you.

Any idea who?

No, but those gunshots

Could have been meant for us.

It would suit lord hubbard

To have you both out of the way.

I'll have a chat with him.

It's hubbard, you know it is.

I'm not sure.

[dialing]

[phone ringing]

Sydney fox's office.

(syd:) karen.

Sydney, you must have esp.

Listen, I've waited all day

To hear back from him but lord atherton

Can't reschedule your meeting

We're close to finding the relic,

I can't leave.

As in leave now or leave never?

Probably never.

You're going to have to handle

Atherton on your own.

Okay.

Listen, I need you to send me

Anything you can dig up on tintern abbey.

Tintern abbey, got it.

Alright.

Of course I didn't shoot at anyone, doyle.

Am I now to be blamed for every

Act of violence in the county?

I'm only concerned with this one

Act at the moment, lord hubbard.

Help yourself.

You won't find the smoking gun in there.

Aah...

This one's been used recently.

What?

Can you explain that?

No.

Where's all your bluster

Gone now, eh, lord hubbard?

Get changed.

And tell your solicitor he can

Meet us at scotland yard.

I'm going out now.

Judging from what's happened, I think

It's better if you didn't stay.

We'll just be here a few more minutes.

Don't be here when I get back.

Sydney, look at this image.

Karen was able to find

An amazing amount of information.

Including this virtual reality model

Of tintern abbey in its heyday.

Now, look at the stained glass

Windows in the day room.

Where the monk's illuminated their manuscripts.

Including the one we just saw

At hubbard's of king arthur.

(nigel:)each window has a cross on it.

The rood of the inscription.

"heavenly light through stained glass."

You know that piece of glass

I cut my finger on?

Do you think that could be a fragment?

Might.

Hang on, hang on.

Here we are.

What, invoices?

From a local glazier.

Glover ordered various samples of stained glass.

Made to the ancient formula.

Glover must have seen the inscription

"heavenly light casts its glow

Upon the shield of arthur."

And was trying to recreate the

Stained glass windows at tintern abbey.

He knew that heavenly light revealed something...

Hidden.

In a manuscript?

(together:)hubbard's manuscript.

(emma:)lord hubbard isn't here.

Thanks to you, he's been arrested.

We may be able to do something about that.

You can't just...

(mick:)I want to talk to you.

Not now.

If you don't, you'll be sorry.

Not here, the stables.

(syd:)let's hope that the glazier's

Formulations were duplicated exactly.

Too much metal in the flux and

We may never see the

Hidden messages that glover left.

The blue glass he ordered was created

By adding cobalt to the flux.

The green was created by adding arsenic and silver.

Deadly.

Cranberry red was created by adding gold.

(nigel:)gold, it sounds arthurian.

(syd:)nothing.

(nigel:)last one.

And crimson was created by adding copper.

Relight cancels out the red ink.

Revealing a very familiar floor plan.

That's tintern abbey.

Yeah, you see that mark

Just outside the monk's day room?

Looks like the drainage system to me.

Right. Let's see.

(emma:)mick?

Mick?

Well?

I saw you the other night.

In your dreams?

In this dream you were backstabbing your boss.

What are you on about?

You have keys to his gun cabinet.

So?

Doing a little shooting

The other night, were you?

I don't have to listen to this.

I saw you put the gun back.

You think inspector doyle might be interested?

Mick...

Why are you doing this to me?

I want in on whatever

Scam you've got going on.

You tried to kill the relic hunters,

At the castle.

You took the bentley...

I know you have keys.

Because they're getting close to the cross

And close to the truth.

And what's the truth?

Stop it, emma.

It's obvious.

You killed glover to get the cross.

(women:)no, she didn't.

I did.

You try to take everyone who loves me.

First my husband, now mick.

Just as well for you that I need you.

{ Advertisement }

What are you thinking?

Glover only had one key to the map:

The red glass.

Quite sharp, the glass.

And hubbard had the other:

The manuscript.

Yes?

You couldn't find the cross without both.

True.

So how did glover ever see

The map on king arthur's shield.

I see your point.

They hated each other,

They would never co-operate.

He must have had help.

But who?

The murderer.

Is that it?

Looks like a drainage ditch to me.

(nigel:)drainage, right.

Yup.

I'm just thinking...

Drainage: Draining what?

You know, rainwater, so on.

(nigel:)sewage?

Probably.

Um... Mud?

I don't think I want to know.

Aah... Ahhh....

I must go.

Lord atherton, please...

I'm sorry, I'm a busy man.

I know that. So does sydney.

If professor fox can't keep an appointment

It must mean that neither she nor

The university want the money.

But that's not true.

Look, I'm sorry,

I can't waste any more time.

Lord atherton, please, you can't go.

Professor fox will lose it.

She'll blame me.

But, why?

It's not your fault.

She blames me for everything.

I'll lose my job.

I know I will.

I don't mean to get you into any sort of...

Um... Into...

Look, I really can't waste anymore time.

What's the matter?

This looks like the place marked on the map.

Huh.

See where the water goes under the wall

And stops right here?

What's this?

Stone, it seems to be worn in the middle.

As if by repeated touch.

There's another one exactly the same over here.

Too far apart for one person

To press at the same time.

Basic medieval double-key system.

Alright, we press them

Simultaneously on my count.

One... Two...

(nigel:) three.

Arthur's cross.

Direct evidence to the real arthur.

And a murder weapon.

(emma:)someone can see us.

Listen...

That's what I thought when

Antony first brought me here.

If he hadn't needed me to move the stone,

I'd have never known about the cross.

Where are we going?

This is the way to where it's hidden.

Right, line yourself up and

Press on that stone the same time

As I press on this one.

Ready?

One, two, three.

You said you put it back after you killed him.

I know I did.

Looking for this?

You planted the photos, didn't you?

Look, this has nothing to do with me.

She's nuts.

Shut up!

You got me into this.

I got you into nothing.

It's your own fault,

You should have stayed away from my husband.

I didn't kill antony, you did.

And mick.

Mick the groundsman?

Why, mrs. Glover?

Because my dear husband was

Having an affair with this.

And I found out later that

He was going to leave me too

After he found the cross.

Run off with you?

He just used me to get hubbard's illumination.

He was going to dump me too.

I confronted him.

He just stood there,

Laughing at me,

Smiling.

Hey!

Put the knife down,

I don't want to kill you.

I don't mind dying.

[♪]

{ Advertisement }

(hubbard:)king arthur's cross.

I don't know how to thank you for finding it.

Thank antony glover.

Perhaps someone can use it

To take up glover's quest,

And prove once and for all

That king arthur really existed.

Someone?

Not you?

I fear my relic hunting days are over for a while.

Call us if you change your mind.

I can't think of anyone I'd rather

Take up the hunt than you both.

Thank you. That's quite an honour.

We've booked sarah glover on

Two counts of murder:

Antony glover and michael bambridge.

What about emma?

Emma johnson is an accessory after the fact,

And of course for the murder of bambridge.

You two may be called upon to testify.

Have your secretary call me,

We'll fix times and dates.

Times and dates...

Karen.

I'm sorry, we'll have to excuse ourselves.

We'll talk soon.

Your professor fox is certainly no timekeeper.

Lord atherton, I am so sorry

For keeping you waiting.

And waiting and waiting and waiting.

Yes, I know.

We can't apologize enough.

You certainly can't.

Professor fox, I'm going to be perfectly blunt.

I'm not at all impressed with you.

Not only because you can't keep an appointment,

But with the way you treat your staff.

What?

Terrifying the poor girl like that.

Karen?

There is no way you could

Possibly convince me of donating

Anything to your department of ancient studies.

Not even if I told you that we've

Discovered the legendary cross of king arthur.

What?

Recovered this very day from tintern abbey.

Actually we were planning a monograph,

Outlining this stupendous find,

The first worthy accomplishment

Of your funding of ancient studies.

Lord atherton,

I have to apologize and

Ask you to forgive me.

Hm?

For my little ploy the other day.

Ploy?

You know...

Oh, I see...

I couldn't reveal what sydney

And nigel were hunting for.

Security reasons.

But I just had to keep you here.

I see.

Well, all is forgiven.

And professor fox,

I shall donate something

To your department of ancient studies after all.
