I had the perfect life
until I was in a coma for six years,
and then I woke up and found my fiancee
married to another man...
and they're raising my son.
Everything has changed...
including me.
One touch, and I can see things,
things that happened, things that will happen.
You should see what I see.
No! Damn it.
It's mine. If you want it
- you're going to have to kill me. - Don't be crazy.
- This thing worth dying for ? - You're wrong.
This may be the only thing worth dying for.
Are you sure about that?
John...
you have 30 seconds to do the right thing.
If you don't, a good man is going to die.
Everything all right, Johnny?
- Yeah, everything's fine. - All right.
If we hurry, I can give you a quick tour before we open the doors for the public.
I saw the line out front. That's quite a turnout.
Yes, it should be.
This exhibition is one of the largest collections of religious artifacts ever to go on loan
and we've got it here at faith heritage.
Walk with me.
- So who put this collection together? - The Haliwell foundation.
One of the oldest names in europe.
Some of these objects have been in the family collection
since before the crusades.
- Welcome to "objects of faith. " - Very impressive.
Yes, it is.
Ticket sales have been phenomenal. Well,you saw the crowd.
This is going to be a huge source of spiritual rejuvenation
for the entire congregation.
These tapestries were kept safe by the early christians after the fall of rome.
One of the highlights- a gutenberg bible, printed in 1455,
one of only nine in the country.
Makes you wonder how much of today's culture will still be around in 500 years.
This buddha is over a thousand years old.
Gene
you haven't told me why you asked me to be here.
Because there's one object in particular
that I want you to see.
- How much longer? - Any time now.
- I'm going to miss swim practice. - You're not going to miss swim practice.
Besides, a little culture's good for us,
and you've got to get pictures for your school report, right?
A bone?
Not just any bone,
a bone fragment thought to belong to john the baptist.
John the baptist?
- Like in the bible? - The tip of his index finger.
We are talking about a piece of the hand that baptized jesus.
How can you be sure? It's not like they had dna to compare it to.
It's been authenticated as being from the days of early christianity,
although its actual origin is still a matter of faith.
Crusades have been launched over icons like this.
I bet.
Makes you wonder, though, doesn't it?
If this...
really is a piece of the hand that first pointed out christ as the messiah,
what you might see if you were to touch it.
Reverend, they're ready to open the doors now.
I'll be right there. Thank you.
- Gene, I was wondering if we could... - Hold that thought.
Pleasure to see you both.
Nice to see you again.
Check this out.
Oh, yeah, it's about the crusades and the search for the holy grail.
- Did they ever find the holy grail? - No.
I don't know if it actually even existed.
- Well, then, why is everybody looking for it? - That's an excellent question, J.J.
State-of-the-art security system.
Infrared beams, motion detectors, redundant alarms...
it's the only way we could afford the insurance premiums.
The display cases, Gene?
They're bulletproof glass and reinforced steel bolted directly into the floor.
Well, who would want to steal a religious object?
- Where would you sell it? - You'd be surprised.
There are wealthy, powerful men who,
when faced with the prospect of their own mortality,
begin to seek answers.
They need to repent, but they lack conviction.
These artifacts provide tangible evidence of faith in god.
Finger bone of a dead prophet... millions of dollars.
Restored faith in god... priceless.
Excuse me. Can you zoom in on one of these cameras?
Which one?
There.
It's walt and J.J.
He's working on a school project.
Thanks.
About time. I was supposed to go on break 10 minutes ago.
- Something wrong? - No, no.
What was that?
I don't know.
Bring up all the entrances.
You're late.
Your note said to make sure I wasn't followed.
Timing is everything with this job.
Here's your gear.
Why all the mystery?
We don't know you. You don't know us.
That protects everybody. Stick to the timetable.
If anything changes, a lot of people are going to get hurt,
starting with you.
I'm going to the head.
Hurry up. I'm supposed to be on a break.
Johnny, if you'll excuse me, I have some business to attend to.
Why don't you join the others and I'll catch up when I can.
I've got smoke alarms everywhere, and we're down to battery backup power.
Handle the radio calls. I'm going to call 911.
Great. Fire department's here.
That was quick-
We good here? Let's do it.
- What were you doing back there? - I was making my rounds.
- Why is the power going to fail? - What are you talking about?
You did something to sabotage the electrical system.
I don't have time for this.
What is this, some kind of robbery?
- Get out of my way. - Why the big hurry?
Let me out of here.
- Dad! - J.J.?
- Dad! - J.J.!
Dad!
Everybody, stay calm.
- Move to the exits, please. - Hang on.
J.J.!
Everybody, stay calm.
Move to the exits, please. Quietly, calmly. There's an exit up here.
Where the hell's magruder?
Great. Fire department's here.
Hello. 911?
Yeah, faith heritage security.
I got multiple fire alarms in the main auditorium.
Okay, I'm standing by.
- Magruder? - No.
Get me out of here!
Hold it right there! Freeze!
There we go.
They'll have the lights back on in a moment, folks.
Come back in when they do.
J.J.?
Dad! Dad!
Where are you?
Hey! Dad!
Listen, they sent me to tell you there are toxic fumes.
Everybody needs to evacuate the building.
Where's magruder?
He's in the main hall. They need you out front to help with crowd control.
- What about you? - I'm right behind you. Let's go. Come on.
This is great.
You see a little kid, blond, about this tall?
No?
You guys see a 10-year-old, blond, about this tall?
Excuse me. Have you seen my boy?
He's a little 10-year-old, about this tall, blond.
No.
There's another exit around the back.
All right, thanks.
- Is that everybody? - I think so.
Can't be sure till the fire department does a sweep of the building.
Magruder's still in there somewhere.
Good work. Get these people over with the others.
Okay. Thank you. Yes, sir.
Just a small electrical fire. Everybody, move back.
Keep back. Move it back. Stay back, sir.
Here they come.
Disarm.
Four, five, eight.
No. Four, five, nine.
Four, five, nine, seven, seven, seven. Enter.
10:07. You're right on time.
There he is.
We good here?
Yeah. What do you think?
Let's do it.
Where's the other guard?
I sent him to help evacuate the building, sir.
That wasn't the plan.
The plan changed.
We're online.
Let's go.
Hierbei waere die letzte moeglichkeit, wuerde ich sagen.
Wo ist es?
Erschiessen sie alle.
We're already two minutes behind.
The fittings are warped from the cold.
That's it. Go.
Watch for leaks when you connect it to the air vent.
We're all set.
What the hell is this?
We got company.
What's he doing?
- What do you want me to do? - Bring him to me.
I'll do it.
You go with him, and I don't want any more surprises.
Temperature's dropping. Good.
J.J.!
Stay back, sir.
Stay back.
Don't worry about anything. We've got control of this, all right?
Everything's fine.
Stay back, sir.
It's going to be okay. It's an electrical fire, all right?
It'll be all right. Don't worry about it.
I'm sorry. All circuits are busy. Please try again.
Don't worry about it.
Who's there?
Fire department.
Be right there.
Don't!
Don't shoot him. He said no more surprises.
- Who are you? - Why are you still in here?
I'm Gene Purdy. I'm the man responsible for this exhibit.
So you're the money-changer in the temple.
- The whoremaster. - I beg your pardon?
Instead of selling the flesh and blood of the innocent,
you sell the body and soul of the divine.
I am a man of god.
These articles belong to the faithful.
These articles have been stolen from the faithful by the greedy and unworthy!
They are covered in the blood of those who came before!
I just want to know why you brought him here now. Why didn't you just kill him?
He's worth more as a hostage, in case something goes wrong.
Nothing will go wrong.
- You'll never get away with this. - No, you're wrong, my brother.
It is god's will.
It's almost ready.
What's wrong?
Mask is too hot.
I'm sweating like a pig. I can't see.
- Hell with it. - What are you doing?
What's it look like?
You fool!
Now we all know who you are.
You seem to have me at a disadvantage, so everybody, take them off.
Look, we're wasting time.
Make up your minds.
Wait a minute.
Put a bag over his head first.
He's right. Do it.
Okay, now, everybody, take them off.
Now!
Now we're all in this together.
The glass is ready to go.
That's it. Everyone back!
Stand by.
Black or red?
Wake up. Black or red? Which is it?
Red.
It was black, you idiot!
I was wrong. Cut the black.
Don't be wrong again.
We're behind schedule.
Help! Help!
Okay, easy, baby.
Easy.
All right.
Can she get her arm back out?
- That's why she gets paid the big bucks. - Quiet.
I have it.
- What the hell is that? - No!
Do you know how to shut this off?
Not if I can't see!
He looks at me again, he's dead.
Eyes down.
Understood.
Where is the second alarm?
It's across the room.
Go. Eyes down. You help.
Stop!
Don't touch me again, you idiot.
Panel's on the left, under a camera.
I got it.
What is the password? Answer me!
What's the difference? You're going to kill me anyway.
- I want the password! - No!
I am going to give you five seconds to decide.
Five, four, three, two, one...
- Wait! He hasn't seen us, right? - Yeah. So?
I don't want a pointless murder on my back for the rest of my life.
I need the password!
- Just give me a minute. - Eyes forward.
"Faith. "
- What did you say? - The password is "faith. "
How did you know this?
I considered the source.
It's not too late to reconsider your actions. You know,
this isn't some diamond bracelet you can hawk at a corner pawnshop.
This is an object of intrinsic worth, and it belongs to those who believe.
Don't you speak to me about faith or about god.
You have no idea what it means to truly believe.
Who are you?
Who I am or what I am is of no concern.
Now, let's go.
How is she?
The relic is stuck at the bottom of the case,
and she's going to lose that arm if we don't get it out.
If anyone comes near me with a knife or a saw, I'm going to blow your head off.
Calm yourself.
I just want to look at the relic.
How long would it take to pry off the upper case?
20, 30 minutes.
We don't have that much time.
Someone must have heard the alarm.
Maybe we should just cut our losses and get the hell out.
- Put the gun down. - Screw you!
Put it down.
Whatever you say, chief.
I just can't believe all this bloodshed over a piece of bone.
I know.
Looks like they were using the jaws to tip that thing
so it would roll out the hole like a penny candy.
Funny thing is, a couple more minutes, they would have had the damn thing.
I don't know how the hell John got mixed up in all this.
All right, listen to me.
I know how we can get it.
What are you talking about?
We tip the case over and the relic rolls out,
but we cannot waste any more time.
I say yes.
It's better than killing each other.
We've got 10 minutes.
First, you're going to help me get her out of there.
What are you going to do?
This might hurt, okay?
Start at the base with the jaws.
Get him out of here.
Take him where they won't find him for a while. Tie him up.
Okay.
Let's go. Move. Move. Now.
Before you kill me, I think you should consider what that will do to your immortal soul.
It's a little late for that.
Here, I'll let you in on a little secret.
That was close.
Don't make me come back.
Let's go.
Right behind you.
Purdy, you okay?
Yeah. You?
Ah, I'm okay. Who are these guys?
I don't know, but they're trying to steal one of the relics.
Where's J.J.?
I don't know. I think he's lost somewhere inside.
Let's see if we can get these things off, huh?
Come on, baby.
It needs to go up a little more! Put your backs into it!
Two, three, push!
There it goes.
Looking for this?
Take it.
I hate to break up this happy reunion, but we'll take that.
You have no idea the terrible darkness
taking this object will bring you.
You didn't seem too worried when you put this little picnic together.
Now, you hand it to me, or I take it out of your cold, dead hand.
On second thought, I'd just as soon not spend the rest of my life
looking over my shoulder.
Hello?
Can anybody hear me?
It's an emergency.
Hello?
There are men with guns.
Forget about them! Let's get out of here!
Help me. Help me...
It doesn't matter if they get away.
It matters.
The relic is a fake.
It isn't real.
How can you know this?
Just stay back, sir.
What took you so long?
Never mind that. Let's go, let's go!
A psychic?
That's how I knew you were going to steal the relic.
That's how I figured out the password for the alarm.
Why?
I saw a vision.
I knew if you weren't successful, innocent people would die.
When your inside man, Magruder, got hurt, I took his place.
You expect me to believe this?
I saw it, just like I saw the nazis put that scar over your eye.
Now, the relic - the germans stole it from your monastery.
I saw you, as a little boy, hide it underneath the altar.
What kind of man am I in the presence of?
Just a man like you, no better, no worse.
When the war broke out, my mother left me in care of the monks.
When the nazis came, they took the relic.
Many brothers were killed that day.
There has been so much pain and suffering in my country.
The people need something to believe in again.
So you planned to steal the relic and bring it back to your church, right?
When we heard it was for sale, we raised money...
but we were outbid by a rich american.
I had no choice but to come. It was a matter of faith.
And now the relic is a fake.
Somebody must have switched it.
It's mine.
If you want it, you're going to have to kill me.
I know who it is.
Freeze! Hands in the air!
Look, there isn't much time.
You need to do exactly what I tell you to do.
Come with me.
- Get up! Now! - Leave him alone.
Take me if you want a hostage.
Hey, hey. Leave him alone.
Step... and again.
- What do you want? - Where is it?
I don't know what you're talking about.
The relic of John the Baptist.
It was stolen, by you!
Looking for this?
Johnny, what are you doing?
Same thing I've been trying to do all day, Gene, save your life.
I don't understand.
This is brother Gregarin, the last of his order, the sacred order of John the Baptist.
- You've heard of them? - Yes.
- Well, he wants the relic back. - But the robbery...
- We know about the fake. - The fake.
Where's the real one, Gene?
What did you do? Steal it from your own exhibit?
Come on, answer me.
All right, I have the relic, but I did not steal it.
I bought it from the Haliwell foundation.
The purchase was perfectly legal.
Why the fake?
Because I'd heard that there were original bidders who still wanted to possess it
and were willing to do anything to get it.
- Where is it? - The relic belongs to me now.
It is mine.
It never belonged to the people who sold it to you.
You don't understand. It wasn't just for me.
You got 30 seconds or this man is going to die.
It was in your briefcase the whole time?
It wasn't about money.
It was never about money.
I thought... if you touched this...
you could tell me what John the Baptist saw when he looked on the face of Christ,
and my faith might be restored, and when my faith was restored,
I might restore the faith of those I minister to.
Gene, faith is believing something is true in the absence of proof.
Touch this, Johnny.
Please.
Please tell me what you see.
I do not need anyone to tell me this is real.
I believe it.
Not with my head... but with my heart.
Consider this an anonymous donation to your holy order.
Okay, remember, stay on the north side of the building.
If you ever get to Ukraine...
You need to go.
J.J.!
Dad!
How you doing?
- You all right? - Yeah.
You sure?
Johnny.
Hey, where the hell have you been? Do you have any idea what's been going on?
Been looking all over for you guys. Did something happen?
You won't believe it.
Robbers with guns.
- I got pictures. - Did you?
Caught three of them in a stolen fire truck near the interstate.
- Some kid called it in. - That was me.
No kidding. Looks like I missed all the action, huh?
What happened to you?
Oh, nothing. I just, uh...
I ran into a door when the power went out.
Yeah, well, you're lucky that's all you ran into.
One of those guys really packed a punch.
Yeah. Lucky, huh?
Let's go home, guys.
Come on.
You sure you're okay?
