Professor Langdon. If this path really leads to the Church of Illumination that way may be where they've hidden the antimatter. "A shining star at the end of the path." Follow the path. We may find the canister. Can you deactivate the device? I can change the batteries as long as we have more than five minutes. That wo...
Each one a tribute to one of the fundamental elements earth, air, fire, water and placed the statues out in public in churches throughout Rome. Each statue held a clue pointing to the next. At the end of the path was the Church of Illumination. If you could find that, you were one of them. What makes you thinking he's ...
Their faith will sustain them. Their faith will not protect them from an explosion. Well... We are all bound for heaven eventually, are we not? Spoken like one who has enjoyed the blessings of a long and full life. Patrick do not confuse the power of the office you temporarily hold with your true place here in the Vati...
It must, now of all times. May God forgive you for what you've done. Father, if God has issues they won't be with what I've done. They will be with what I'm about to do. It was confiscated from the Netherlands by the Vatican just after Galileo died. I've been petitioning to see it for about 10 years ever since I realiz...
Yeah, and said the Earth was not the center of some universe with heaven above, hell below, as the Church had said. So they forced him to recant in the second book. But what was this one? This is how he got the word out. This is the truth, not what the Vatican forced him to write. Smuggled out of Rome, printed in Holla...
Here's another one. "The path of light is laid a sacred test." - Will you write this down as I dictate? - Sorry, Professor. No time. Yeah, yeah. What the hell? Yeah. Twenty minutes till eight. - Where are we headed? - Hold on. Hold on. I'll tell you in a minute. Let me see that page again. Where did you get that pa...
- Yeah. Santi was his last name. So, the path starts at Raphael's tomb? Raphael's buried at the Pantheon. - Isn't the Pantheon a church? - The oldest Catholic church in Rome. I just pulled a dozen of my best men for this. - You better be right. - This is one of the busiest spot in all of Rome. - He'd never get away wi...
- Fine. I'll go in. You don't have communication. You can't carry a walkie talkie. - Tourists have cell phones. - No, no. You can't send her in there alone. All right. I won't. Don't look so anxious. We're supposed to be married. Well, maybe we're not getting along today. Hold my hand. - But don't crush it. - Sorry. ...
I'll meet you in 180 degrees. Follow me, please. Now, the Pantheon, which means 'Temple of all Gods', ...was originally built as a temple to all the gods of ancient Rome in 27 BC. Although the building is usually credited to Apollodorus of Damascus... Robert! Robert! It's Raphael's tomb. - But it's the wrong one. - Wha...
What do you mean? - It's the Chigi chapel in the Church of Santa Maria del Popolo. It was once called Capella della Terra, The Chapel of the Earth. Earth. The first element. That's it. - You're certain about the Pantheon? - We have four minutes. Back to the Vatican. You can't. if you care at all about your church, y...
Here. It's an Annulus. Which one is the Chigi Chapel? It's in one of these apses. Pyramids in a Catholic church. This is it. This is the Chigi Chapel. The Demon's Hole. But it's askew. Come here. Hand me your flashlight. What's that? I call as my witness Christ the Lord who will be my judge, that my vote is given to ...
- Yes, sir. I'm calling all off-duty. No information. Is it Raphael? The chapel is Raphael. But the sculptures are Bernini. The unknown Illuminati master Bernini? He worked for the church. Almost exclusively. But the Illuminati were infiltrators. There wasn't a powerful organization they didn't penetrate, ...including ...
Bernini designed St. Peter's Square. The second marker must be a statue in St. Peter's Square It's 10 minutes till 9. Can you go any faster? Not unless you want the full attention of the world press. There was no consensus after the first ballot but Cardinal Baggia, the Italian, is the odds-on favorite... There is no n...
This is it. Get the police! Call an ambulance! He's still alive. His chest. They punctured his lungs. Clear the square. "From within your walls to squeeze life from the Bishop." He's actually claiming responsibility for the death of His Holiness. That's ridiculous. He died of a stroke. It implies the Illuminati murder...
We're not going to defile His Holiness's body just because his enemies claims- Why would they send this letter now? Well, to cause panic. "The sun will blind at midnight and neither police nor professors can stop it. " He knows I'm here. Obviously they were hoping this letter would become public. We might be wise to pr...
We'll need to get into the archives to find it. - Would you escort Mr. Langdon? - Yes, Father. Silcano's journals. The killer's name could be in here. May I stay? Please. Fine, of course. Professor. Would it surprise you to find those clothes suit you? It would surprise the hell out of me. The Vatican is expressing sy...
A source of inspiration for one billion lost and frightened souls. Sure, I get that. It's also a bank. Commander Olivetti said I was not to leave your side this time. It wasn't me, it was her. Power is now cut to Zone 73. No light reaction on the monitor. Restore power and move on to 74. What sort of signs? I'm sorry?...
"Moved"? To another church. At the suggestion of Bernini? I don't know. Here, Translate all of this for me and I'll buy you a pack of smokes. I'm looking for a reference to fire. Fires. - "Seraphim," meaning "the firey one." - Right. "His great, golden spear, a point of fire." Then "woman left completely afire." Ecst...
Even when I was young and stubborn, I wanted to be ordained. But I was brought up in Italy, so I also wanted to do my military service. I wanted to fight. He told me, "Learn to fly." So I joined the Aeronautica Militare flew helicopters, bringing the wounded back to hospital. He was a great man. Your father died? Fourt...
Give me strength. What I do, I do in the name of everything you believe. Remove the cover. Did you not hear me? Signore, by law, we are at your command, but... One day I will ask your forgiveness For putting you in this position. But today I ask your obedience. Vatican laws are there to protect this church. And it's in...
I wanna speak to the camerlengo. The camerlengo is unavailable. He's found evidence that the Holy Father was indeed murdered. - He is seeking guidance. - From whom? From God. - Make an effort, please. - Yeah, yeah. The journals. Where are they? Who took the journals from this desk? Someone is here? What is this? Sign...
They think it justified. Because of Church's attacks on men of science in the past. And it's true. Since the days of Galileo this Church has tried to slow the relentless march of progress sometimes with misguided means. But science and religion are not enemies. There are simply some things that science is just too youn...
I'm a cop. My son God answers all prayers but sometimes his answer is no. The college will not break conclave. May I suggest you direct your energies to helping the Swiss Guard find this explosive device if it exists. And leave Church leadership to its leaders. Eminence. There is a growing fear That without four prefer...
It's a sin to kill without reason. Father, they make me a sinner. Saint Teresa on fire. Professor Langdon? - What direction is that? - West, I think. "Cross Rome the mystic element unfold." Piazza Barberini is here. Saint Teresa is here. Where is the Santa Maria del Popolo? - Santa Maria del Popolo? - Yes. Thank you. S...
Now, look. You can do as they say And force me back to the Vatican Where we can all mourn his death together. Or you can show real cops act, And take me to the Piazza Navona. Where we still might be able to stop it. Oh, by all means, let's talk it over. In 14 minutes, he's gonna be dead. This way, professor. Yes, Padr...
Help! Somebody help! Help! Somebody Cardinal Baggia? Cardinal Baggia. Where was he hiding you? The Church of Illumination. Where is it? Castel-Castel Sant'Angelo. Castle of the Angel. Sir, there's news about Cardinal Baggia. The cardinal told Langdon he was being held in Castel Sant'Angelo If Langdon's right, that's ...
The Church of Illumination is somewhere here and your canister is inside it Come with me. For 400 years, the Illuminati met right under the Church's nose. The Vatican used this as a hideout and as a prison for their enemies. If the explosion happens here, would the blast radius take out the Vatican? And part of Rome al...
My God. Here. Look. Get on the radio. Get the word out. Conclave remains sealed. But the Camerlengo gave the order for evacuation at- I'm countermanding it. This is it. This is their church. The canister should be lit by artificial light. It's not here, Robert. "A shining star at the end of the path. "It has to be. I...
The Camerlengo. - We have to warn him. - Take a step back, please. Take your cell phone from your pocket. Throw it in the fire. Murderer. You know, when they call me and they all call me... it is so important to them that I know that I know that what they ask is the Lord's will. Or Allah's, Or Yahweh's. And I suppose t...
- I need to see the Camerlengo. - He is not available. - I demand to see the Camerlengo. - He is not available. We'll see about that. All locked up. Senza chiave. It's a one way portal. The only entrance is on the other side. No. Hey! I don't care who he talks to. He doesn't go into that room. This is Robert Langdon ...
Robert? The brand, the symbol, could it have another meaning? Crossed keys, but those were upside down. St. Peter. The first pope was crucified upside down. - On Vatican Hill. - A few hundred feet below us. Necropolis. City of the dead. "Upon this rock, I will build my church." "Or bring it down upon itself." The bomb...
Wait! - Father! We are live here at St. Peter's Square... where, despite a bomb threat, and an order of evacuation the crowd is actually growing in size As we await an official announcement from the Vatican spokesman as to the exact nature of the threat and whether or not they are treating it as a credible danger. This...
The Carmerlengo's age shouldn't reach the decision. Signori you are no doubt aware that the Holy Law of that man is ineligible for election to the papacy. He's not a cardinal. He's a priest. He's of insufficient age. Or maybe there's a way we could consider the possibility. I am sorry. The protocols of conclave are n...
Yes? The cardinals ask you to join them in conclave as soon as possible. Me? Yes, Padre. What are you doing? Silvano's journals. I want them back. Richter said... His Holiness suffered from seizures... and steps were taken... for safety. He made sure he was watched he said. What if he were trying to give me this key? ...
The blasphemy. The arrogance. The Holy Father didn't see it like that. He urged him to go public. His Holiness thought that the discovery could actually scientifically prove the existence of a divine power. And begin to bridge the gap between science and religion. His work was not religious. It was sacrilegious. But y...
I've shown the journals to Father Simeon. The moment the doors to the Conclave open... he will tell the Cardinals what you've done. I was planning on doing this alone. Put it down. But, perhaps, it's better that you're here. Put it down. Put it away. Help. He's the one. He's got a gun. - Illuminatus. - You bastard. -...
We are grateful you saved his life. And it's our understanding that you require this text... to complete your scholary work. We ask only that in your last grand testament... you ensure it finds its way home. Of course. And when you write of us... and you will write of us... may I ask one thing? Do so gently. I'll try. ...
As the body of the pontiff passes by we see prayers are being offered by the preferiti favourites among those being considered to succeed him as the Vicar of Christ. At the end of the mourning period, the College of Cardinals will lock itself behind the doors of the Sistine Chapel for conclave the process by which...

In fact, I was in New York, detailed to the U.N. I receive a phone call in the middle of the night: "Find Professor Robert Langdon. A matter of great urgency." They said to show you this. The Illuminati? They disappeared hundreds of years ago. Did they? Look at that again. It's an ambigram. It's the same image forwar...
There are no suspicions...yet. What do you want from me? These criminals who sent this ambigram meant it as a taunt, a provocation. But Captain Olivetti think if you can use it to learn their identity perhaps we can stop this abomination. Why me? Your expertise. Your erudition. Your recent involvement with certain Chu...
- Yes. Welcome to Vatican City. Ernesto Olivetti, inspector general of the Vatican police force. - My pleasure. - This way, please. We'll meet in the headquarters of the Swiss Guard. I thought you were Swiss Guard. No, la Gendarmeria. We are responsible for everything inside the Vatican walls with the exception of the ...
I just hope I can help. So do I. You were my idea. Wait here. Please. Commander? Commander Richter? Professor Langdon is here. Well, we have bigger problems than that now. Dr. Vetra? I'm Commander Richter, comandante principale of the Swiss Guard. Thank you for coming. Hello. - Professor Langdon. - Yes. What a relief,...
I'm quite familiar with incendiaries, Miss Vetra. I've never heard of antimatter being used as such. Well, it's never been generated in significant quantities before. It's a way of studying the origins of the universe to try to isolate what some people call "the God particle." But there are implications for energy rese...
You didn't tell me they were the preferiti, the favorites to be named the next pope. Play it again. We will destroy your four pillars. We will brand your preferiti... Wait, stop it. Stop it. "Brand" them. That's another Illuminati legend. This one says that there are a set of five brands each one an ambigram. The firs...
I need access to the Vatican archives. Professor, I don't think this is the appropriate... Your petition has been denied seven times. No, no. This has nothing to do with my work. The Path of Illumination is a trail that leads to the Church of the Illumination the place where the Illuminati would meet in secret. If I ...
Though I am not His Holiness, when you are addressing me you are addressing this office. Do you understand? Yes, Father. Good. You said the image on the screen was illuminated by artificial light. Might I suggest methodically cutting power to various sections of the city. When the image goes dark, you'll have a specifi...
Be delicate with our treasures. The archives are this way. Professor Langdon. If this path really leads to the Church of Illumination that may be where they've hidden the antimatter. "A shining star at the end of the path." Follow the path. - We may find the canister. - Can you deactivate the device? I can change the b...
Then some unknown Illuminati master sculpted four statues. Each one a tribute to one of the fundamental elements earth, air, fire, water and placed the statues out in public in churches throughout Rome. Each statue held a clue pointing to the next. At the end of the path was the Church of Illumination. If you could fin...
Care deeply about their Church, as we do. Their faith will sustain them. Their faith will not protect them from an explosion. Well... We are all bound for heaven eventually, are we not? Spoken like one who has enjoyed the blessings of a long and full life. Patrick do not confuse the power of the office you temporarily ...
I kept seeing it over and over again in Illuminati letters scribbled in the margins, sometimes just signed "503." It's a numeric clue. But to what? Five? Well, that's a meaningful number to the Illuminati. There's the pentagram, Pythagoras, dozens of other examples in science. But what about three? Didn't make sense ...
Yeah. Do you need help with the Latin? Sure. Movement of the planets, elliptical orbits, heliocentricity. Sorry, I don't think there's anything that could be interpreted as a... Wait, wait, wait. Do that again. What is that? Wait a minute, it's a watermark. And there's a line of text. Go back. It's in English. English?...
"From Santi's earthly tomb with demon's hole." Are you insane? "'Cross Rome the mystic elements unfold. The path of light is laid, the sacred test. Let angels guide thee on thy lofty quest." You removed a document from the Vatican Archives? She did. "From Santi's earthly tomb." - The first marker is at Santi's tomb. - ...
So this is it, your only chance. Separate approaches. No closer than two blocks and no uniforms. Three minutes. And I need a set of eyes inside. Excuse me? Weightlifters in matching suits and earpieces? They're hardly disguised. - Well, it's what I have. - Fine, I'll go in. You don't have communication. You can't car...
Like the 25th of December? It's the pagan celebration of the Unconquered Sun and also makes a handy date for the birth of Christ. - Let's check the recesses. - Okay. I'll go to the right. I'll meet you at 180 degrees. Follow me, please. Now, the Pantheon, which means "Temple of All Gods" was originally built as a templ...
Did Raphael Santi ever design a chapel with an ossuary annex and an angel figure commissioned by the Catholic Church? I'm sorry, I can only think of one. One is good. - Wrong? What do you mean? - It's the Chigi Chapel in the church of the Santa Maria del Popolo. It was once called the Capella della Terra, the Chapel o...
Which one is the Chigi Chapel? It's in one of these apses. Pyramids in a Catholic church. This is it. This is the Chigi Chapel. The demon's hole. But it's askew. Come here. Hand me your flashlight. What's that? Edoardo Rossi. They are voting for themselves to prevent a majority. They are waiting for the preferiti to b...
He worked for the Church. Almost exclusively. But the Illuminati were infiltrators. There wasn't a powerful organization on Earth they didn't penetrate including the Vatican by hiding in plain sight.

He's gotta be here already. There must be 100 statues up there. None of them are angels. Those are all saints. How in God's name would anyone create a sculpture about air? Bas-relief. Of course.

Well, we've turned the power on and off to about 20 percent of Vatican City. - Nothing on the video yet. - We're running out of options. How long would you need to evacuate? If I pull all my men from the search for the bomb, 30 minutes. Mr. Langdon. You have been right so far about the path. It's now 9: 15. How quick...
We're getting word now of smoke. Smoke from the Sistine Chapel chimney. Apparently there's been another vote. The smoke is black. Once again, the cardinals have failed to reach consensus and the Catholic Church remains without a leader. What are you looking for now? Church assets. I beg your pardon? Artwork. It's val...
- We'll be leaving straightaway. Do you smoke? A little bit. Then you better sit down before you keel over. And what's all that right there? What does this say in Italian right here next to the Ecstasy of Saint Teresa? Right there. "Moved at suggestion of the artist." "Moved"? To another church. At the suggestion of B...
Where are we going? To see my father. I don't understand. I was orphaned when I was 9 years of age. A bombing in Ulster. The UVF protesting the visit of a Catholic archbishop. The archbishop felt responsible, and he adopted me the following day. I was raised by him and by the Church. He was the wisest man I ever met. ...
Please. Give me strength. What I do, I do in the name of everything you believe. God help us. Santa Maria della Vittoria. Do you know it? - Yes, I do. - It's the next church. I think someone just tried to kill me. - I promise you we had no idea... - He knows I'm here. - Yes. - You heard me ask permission. - You gave me...
Please, signori. Our Church is at war. We are under attack from an old enemy. The Illuminati. They have struck us from within. Murdering our Holy Father. And threatening us all with destruction at the hands of their new god, science. They call it retribution. They think it justified. Because of the Church's attacks on ...
On that pulley. This bench. Get this pew up here. Make a ladder. Gendarmeria Vaticana. My son God answers all prayers but sometimes his answer is no. The College will not break conclave.

It's a sin to kill without reason. Father they make me a sinner. Saint Teresa on fire. Professor Langdon? - What direction is that? - West, I think. "'Cross Rome the mystic elements unfold."

Castel Sant'Angelo. Castle of the Angel. Sir, there's news about Cardinal Baggia. The cardinal told Langdon he was being held in Castel Sant'Angelo. If Langdon's right, that's where the bomb is.

Come on. - Where are they going? - To search the outer castle. No, no. It has to be here! Robert, it's a dead end. No, it's not. See if you can find a flashlight. All of these stones are rectangular granite. Except right here. What is this? It's a pentagram. An eye that leads to... Nowhere. Robert? These walls overla...
This is it. This is their church. The canister should be lit by artificial light. It's not here, Robert. "A shining star at the end of the path." It has to be.

You're still alive because you have no weapon and they didn't ask me to kill you, but if you pursue me it is another matter. Be careful. These are men of God. The camerlengo.

Order the evacuation. We only have 19 minutes. Here, he's... Get the helicopter for the older cardinals. Yes, sir. Robert? The brand, the symbol, could it have another meaning? Crossed keys. But those are upside down. St. Peter. The first pope was crucified upside down. - On Vatican Hill. - A few hundred feet below us....
We should leave it here and get clear if we can. - At least down here, the damage... - No! - No, wait! - Father! We are live here at St. Peter's Square where despite a bomb threat and an order of evacuation the crowd is actually growing in size as we await an official announcement from the Vatican spokesman as to the e...
A gift. Do you understand what I'm saying? For Catholics, for everyone. Camerlengo's age shouldn't be an obstacle. Signori, you are no doubt aware that by holy law the man is ineligible for election to the papacy. He is not a cardinal, he is a priest. He is of insufficient age. Well, maybe there's a way we could consi...
Me? Yes, Padre. What are you doing? Silvano's journals. I want them back. Richter said His Holiness suffered from seizures but steps were taken for safety. "Made sure he was watched," he said. What if he was trying to give me this key? That's the papal office. If the pope was worried about seizures he must have had Ri...
His work was not religious, it was sacrilegious. But you saw the pope's position as a softening of Church law. As an old man's weakness. Your father's weakness. You murdered the Vicar of Christ. He raised me to protect this Church, even from within. And then you conjured up an old enemy from the past. The Illuminati. Y...
He's the one! He's got a gun! - Illuminatus! - You bastard. - Illuminatus! - Sanctimonious bastard! And get the helicopter for the older cardinals, right? Robert?

The world is in need of both. You will counsel him wisely. I am an old man. I will counsel him briefly. Mr. Langdon thanks be to God for sending someone to protect his Church.

Did they? Look at that again. It's an ambigram. It's the same image forward and backward. Now, that's common for a symbol, like a yin and yang or a swastika, but that's a word.

Your recent involvement with certain Church, shall we say, mysteries. I wasn't under the impression that episode had endeared me to the Vatican. Oh, it didn't.

A bound volume written by Galileo. Galileo was Illuminati? Yeah. And an obedient Catholic who didn't think the Church and science were enemies, but just a different language telling the same story.
