Look at that. There's writing.
"Seek the treacherous doge of Venice...
who severed the heads from horses."
Where Dante was infected
with the disease that killed him.
"Kneel within the gilded museum
of holy wisdom...
...and listen for the sounds...
...of trickling water.
Deep into the sunken palace where the
chthonic monster waits."
The plague itself. Underwater.
"Submerged in the blood-red waters...
...of the lagoon that reflects no stars."
Could you please tell me
what the hell you're doing?
- Why haven't you called in?
- Who are you?
Christoph Bouchard.
From the World Health Organization.
- We've met.
- We've met?
You really don't remember?
It was just two days ago.
He's suffering the effects
of a head wound.
He can't remember the events
of the last 48 hours.
I'm the one who flew to Cambridge
and asked for your help.
I gave you the pointer to decode.
- Professor Langdon?
- Yes?
Okay, yeah. Yeah. I... I remember.
Who are you?
I was the ER doctor at the hospital
when the professor came in.
What is the last thing you remember?
I was on the street. I think it was here.
I was with a woman.
- And I was given an injection.
- Elizabeth Sinskey.
From the World
Health Organization.
Do you know her?
I do. But I haven't seen Elizabeth
in years.
- She's the reason I followed you alone.
- What do you mean?
I believe Dr. Sinskey's working
with a foreign government...
...to find and sell the virus.
No, no, no. That's, that's not possible.
People change, professor.
I've been chasing Bertrand Zobrist
for two years...
...and someone has been working
against me.
Let's get to the point.
Do you know where the virus is?
I assume you have
some sort of credentials.
Call the W.H.O. if you like.
Check me out. But do it quickly.
- Venice. We think it's Venice.
- Good.
