💬 National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007)

A British ship that got lost in the Arctic in the 1800s.

A cipher. See how the letters are coupled?

A city built from solid gold.

A few minutes? Really?

A guy came forward with a missing Booth diary page.

A huge piece of culture lost.

A letter from Queen Victoria to the Confederate General Albert Pike?

A man only has one lifetime, but history can remember you forever.

A meeting to plan the assassination of Lincoln.

A treasure map to Cíbola, the legendary City of Gold, sir.

A. Aardvark.

Abigail, would you like to come with me, please?

Abigail! Did you lose an earring?

Abigail! What a surprise! Hello, sweetheart.

Absurd. Eisenschiml's book is filled with

According to this map, it should be...

Ah, American, eh?

Ah!

All I need is a few minutes with him.

All of you, along with Emily and Patrick Gates

All right.

All right. What have we got here?

All right... You've had me do all the work so far, why stop now?

All this just to ask me about a treasure map?

All this water has to go out somewhere. Otherwise, it'd be filled up.

And a door closed accidentally, and this man saved my life.

And add my happy birthday to you, Mr. President.

And assured me that that's how rich people do it.

And because you're the president of the United States, sir.

And check it out?

And each one chooses his own hiding place.

And Ford, of course.

And give you passage to the sacred temple."

And he burned the diary page to cover that up.

And heads to the Library of Congress?

And I'll show you.

And I'm not comfortable either, but we need you to translate something.

And I'm not just talking about JFK here, guys.

And I'm sure they'll love to meet you.

And in a noble manner, pass over the bird.

And Laboulaye had it. We only got a partial on the next word.

And let me say what an honor it is to be here

And Lincoln paid for it with his life.

And Mitch Wilkinson, sir.

And no one will ever know?

And now, one of our presidents found a secret compartment in the desk.

And say what a wonderful addition Thomas Gates is to our civilian heroes exhibit.

And the coup de grâce... Area 51.

And the eagle is a symbol of the warrior.

And the Union may well have lost the Civil War.

And you happen to be right, you got lucky.

Any report regarding what's on page 47?

Anyone involved in the Lincoln assassination besides Booth.

Anything he said, something he did? Anything at all?

Are you aware I have the right to detain you for the next 48 hours without cause?

Are you aware that according to article one, section 25

Are you aware that you are in a restricted area?

Are you out of your mind?

As a reward, he was taken to their sacred city,

As I recall, we were exploring a hidden tunnel,

As Silas tells it,

At Little Bighorn, it became clear none would ever find it."

Augusta, dear, to your room.

Back up! Back up!

Bacon.

Because inside, I'm a federal agent.

Because it will probably lead us

Because President Lincoln was never accompanied by guards

Because you need that treasure. Believe me, I know.

Before the Civil War, the states were all separate.

Ben found the treasure. You did nothing.

Ben, can you imagine if the Confederates got their hands on the City of Gold...

Ben, I am curious about that favor I asked you.

Ben, I really don't think we're going to find anything on this page.

Ben, look at this.

Ben, no, we're not leaving without you.

Ben, no. Wait, wait! No.

Ben!

Besides, your son would have never found the treasure anyway.

Better.

Book it before someone else does.

Booth didn't seek out Thomas Gates regarding the treasure map that night.

Borglum commissioned to destroy landmarks

Borglum. Mount Rushmore?

Both of them?

Both rooms fill up, and we all drown!

Bubbles and squeak. Smoked eel pie.

But believe me... I don't need the guns.

But enough about me.

But he only referred to one as his "lady."

But I have no enemies down here.

But it's not something I could tell you.

But that means...

But the legend grew, and every explorer came to the New World in search of it.

But the only direct access is through security.

But your partners stay here, and all the guns.

But, then again, what is history but a marker for the deeds of great men?

By presidents, and for presidents' eyes only.

Call the police. I'm coming home.

Calm down. I sent a picture of the plank to your cell.

Can you help me?

Cíbola? This is a treasure map.

Cipher's impossible to decode without the key.

Close the barricade, lock it down!

Come on, Riley. That's... that's an urban legend.

Come on!

Come on.

Come on. One look under infrared.

Confederate General Albert Pike. He was a remarkable man.

Connor, these were given to me by my grandmother.

Connor!

Considering we're not supposed to be here.

Considering your discovered lineage.

Conspiracy theories, urban legends and other myths that are true.

Conspiracy theorists like to believe

Contains a vital piece of information. The final clue, as it were.

Dad, coming through, did you happen to see?

Dad! No, please!

Dad! We found it!

Daniel, hold it.

Did it ever occur to you that I made sacrifices for us that you never did?

Did none of you read my book?

Did the Apollo really land on the moon? Did it? Did it?

Did you learn that from my book?

Did you see where he went?

Do you like ducks?

Does the president have a secret book?

Doesn't make it wrong.

Doesn't matter. You still committed a federal crime.

Doesn't mean you don't have to ask me.

Don't feel bad. You did good.

Don't know. Why don't you ask your new best friend?

Don't understand why it's difficult for you to include others in your decisions.

Don't want to rain on your parade here, but I don't think this is gonna stop

Dr. Nichols from announcing the discovery of the page tomorrow.

Dr. Samuel Mudd was convicted of being a co conspirator

During the invasion, and in the Congo in the late '90s.

Eagle and the scroll.

Eight.

Em?

Em? Water?

Em. Em.

Even if something like that really did exist,

Even if you were married to the president,

Everybody OK?

Everybody, the water makes the rocks darker. Use the water.

Everything I am is because of my ancestors, sir.

Exactly how do you plan on doing this?

Exactly.

Except one of us had to grow up and stay home and look after Ben.

Except one, the one Booth needed to escape?

Excuse me, officer. May I help you?

Excuse me? Excuse me, sir? Are you cataloguing this?

Excuse me.

Explain why all the bridges out of Washington were closed

Explain why Lincoln's bodyguard left his post that night?

FBI, Secret Service all over the place.

Figure something out. Tell you what we're going to do.

Figure that one out.

Find out who she is.

Find the source terminal and check public areas four and eight.

Follow it! There's got to be a central drain!

Follow the stairs round, then turn first left.

For 140 years then just suddenly comes forward with it?

For ancient Native American? No one better.

For it to correspond with the ones on the map, it should form a perfect V.

For one brief moment, the Gates family could hold its head up.

For supplying Booth with a rifle and field glasses.

For the record, after centuries of exploration, on this day,

Forward.

From Queen Victoria to General Albert Pike.

Funny story. My accountant set up a corporation

Get out of there. I had to move the car.

Get your coat.

Give me that.

Give me what you got at Buckingham, it won't be necessary.

Go on. I'll take your diary. I'll meet up with you later.

Go, go.

Go! Go! Faster!

Go. Go, go, go, go!

Going to arrest a man for that?

Going to detain a blighter for enjoying his whiskey?

Gold.

Good evening, Your Excellency. Hello.

Got it from the granddaughter of a slave, Charlotte.

Got it.

Got to be a logical... Let's start from the beginning.

Graduated 1978. Ran a private security company which had contracts in Iraq

Grandpa heard his father say, "Treasure map."

Hack into the London Police database and get a picture from that traffic cam.

Had been here to see this wonderful day.

Hand it over, Ben.

Hang on. We're going to run a red light.

Has used that desk, except, uh, Johnson and Nixon.

Have a look at that.

He carved Mount Rushmore to erase the map's landmarks

He knows more about the book than I thought.

He looked him in the eye, and he said, with his dying breath,

He must have, uh, planned the assassination.

He say his mom could translate the plank?

He seems to believe so, yes.

He shouted, "Sic semper tyrannis" after he shot Lincoln.

He took his son's hand.

He used to tell a story about the night Lincoln was shot.

He was later pardoned, but it didn't matter.

He's a cop.

He's going to call you a cab.

He's the one that discovered it.

He's weird!

Hello, Mitch.

Help me turn this wheel!

Help! Somebody help, please!

Here they are, standing in a row!

Here we go. Malcolm Gilvary. He didn't make furniture.

Here we go. XA... XM...

Here.

Here's the final entry by President Coolidge.

Hey, look at this.

Hey, you're that guy... The treasure hunter guy, right?

Hey! What are you doing here? I mean, it's your house, but...

Hi.

Hidden inside was a plank with Native American writing on it.

Hm?

Hm.

Hm. 'Cause last time I checked, we pretty much make our living on crazy.

Hold this.

Hold your breath!

Hoo! So I'm wrong again.

How did you get in, Ben?

How do I get to, um, this...

How do you expect me to respond? I can't let you ruin your life.

How do you expect to get the president alone?

How fast can we get to Buckingham Palace?

How'd the president feel about being kidnapped?

I ain't going last, and if I'm not going last, I might as well go first.

I beg your pardon, sir, but I know what a huge admirer you are

I believe I can help with that, sir.

I believe it's time for you to make a date with your new boyfriend.

I believe the whereabouts of that plank is now hidden...

I believe what you need is right there.

I believe you to be an honorable man, sir.

I can also track the whereabouts of my toothbrush.

I can do the math too.

I can get up there just as easy as you.

I can identify one symbol.

I can only imagine how difficult this must be for you.

I can't get it.

I can't read the whole thing, but I can tell you that

I can't tell you what a thrill it is for me to be invited here tonight, sir.

I cannot believe you broke in.

I do apologize for the lateness of the hour.

I don't get you, Gates.

I don't know, but it's ours. Let's go.

I don't know. Can't find anything in this mess.

I don't know. I don't know. She started using the word "so" a lot.

I don't think so!

I don't think so.

I doubt it has anything to do with the plot to assassinate Lincoln.

I drop the door, we start this all over again!

I found the City of Gold! I found it!

I get lucky a lot.

I got you! I got you!

I hate her!

I have never seen any symbols like this.

I kidnapped the president. The FBI is on their way right now to arrest me,

I know for a fact that the plank is no longer in the Resolute desk.

I know I'm the last person you want to see,

I know you. You're the White House curator.

I know you. Your great great grandfather killed President Lincoln.

I mean, I know you're allowed to do that. You're the president.

I need you to take a look at this.

I need your help.

I open the door, you'll be washed down!

I saw the seal in the desk, sir. I know the map exists.

I sent you a copy of my book. Did you get a chance?

I stowed them both in the travel case, as instructed.

I suppose we should look for it. Wouldn't want anyone finding an earring

I think it's a pretty good picture.

I think you're right.

I thought that guy, Benjamin Gates, found the treasure.

I tried to find a way out. All those portals are blocked off!

I vote Mitch.

I want a sledgehammer, I want a crowbar, I want a jackhammer, now!

I was going to say you can keep them.

I was not the one that left the toothbrushes in Marrakech.

I wonder... I wonder if it's still there.

I... I actually already have plans for tomorrow.

I'd much appreciate it if you'd finish deciphering that code now.

I'll just wait here, then.

I'll see if this new page matches the Booth diary.

I'll tell everybody how this is going to go.

I'm a little bit allergic.

I'm afraid he's burned it.

I'm glad you're enjoying it.

I'm going to go talk to her.

I'm gonna kidnap him.

I'm gonna kidnap the president of the United States.

I'm just a man trying to make his mark on history.

I'm just kidding. Go.

I'm sorry for getting you roped into this, but you were excellent.

I'm sorry.

I'm telling you, all this water goes out somewhere. We'll find it.

I've never been to an Easter Egg Roll. It's kind of sweet.

If I'm right, after I assume I'm right, then I'm correct.

If I'm stuck in the door, it stays open,

If it was you trying to convince me...

If it's for Ben, of course. What is it?

In a greater conspiracy that involved men in Lincoln's Cabinet.

In a hundred years, no one's going to remember

In about most things as well as shootin'.

In disturbing everyone's pleasant morning

In order to protect the City of Gold.

In sacred Black Hills mountains."

In the cellar. In this tiny little room.

In the Library of Congress.

In the Lincoln assassination, as well as a previously unknown conspirator,

In the Lincoln assassination. The evidence was circumstantial.

Is it, Abigail? Is it?

Is there a way out?

Is there more than one?

Isn't that that guy? The White House guy?

It could have been erased or faded.

It fills with water when you open the door!

It happens to be a collection of documents for presidents

It is... Em.

It was salvaged by American whalers, and then Congress sent it back to England.

It was Thomas who called the meeting.

It would be a pity to come this far and not even try, now, wouldn't it?

It'll take some time.

It's a dead end! There's no way out!

It's a horrible trap.

It's a little golden man.

It's an incredible discovery.

It's gibberish.

It's going to be me.

It's gonna give us incredible insight into pre Columbian history.

It's in the cell phone. I'm not sure how to...

It's ironic, isn't it?

It's just totally...

It's Lab ool...

It's locked.

It's not forward, it's down!

It's not the presidential seal.

It's oil!

It's one... two. In here.

It's Patrick Gates' phone. He's calling Ben.

It's something that I have to show you... in my book.

It's sort of like a puzzle.

It's the wrong place. I'm wrong again!

It's under us. Right here!

Just because you may know what my answer is going to be

Just go! Go now! Go!

Just stop.

Just to clear your ancestor's name.

Keep walking until you're on the other side of the fountain.

Keys to locks that don't exist.

KGC? You're Knights of the Golden Circle. You're a traitor.

Lab ahl... La...

Laboulaye Lady. Do you know what Laboulaye was planning

Laboulaye was a Mason. They built clues into everything.

Laboulaye? As in Édouard Laboulaye?

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you...

Let's get that door open so we don't all drown!

Let's go, please! Patrick, Emily, he's trying to save our lives.

Let's go! Get in there!

Let's go! Let's go!

Let's go.

Let's hear the story again from Grandpa Charles.

Let's see. Resolute twins.

Lincoln is my favorite president, sir. No offense.

Look at that.

Look at the symbols. Never seen anything like this.

Look at this!

Look at this.

Look at this. Do you know what that is?

Look at this. Look.

Look out!

Look!

Look. Do you have a code?

Look. It's got a tiny little torso. Look at that. It looks like...

Looking for the curator's office. Which way was it again?

Looks like we're going to be moving some rocks.

Lousy tequila.

Lt, uh... feels like a latch.

Making me the only one...

Man who had the idea for the Statue of Liberty.

Maps to presidents' houses.

Mary Surratt was convicted and hanged

Maybe one day I'll wear this thing to a party I was actually invited to.

Mercedes SUV...

Might recognize it from the photo of young JFK Junior

Missing plank from the White House. Wow.

Mitch Wilkinson studied history at Virginia Military Institute.

Mitch, we got to be on the other side of that door!

Mitch! Come on!

Mm!

Mom, this is actually very important.

Mom!

Move back! Move back! All of you! Other side!

Mr. President, sometime between 1880,

Mr. President, that is exactly what it is.

Mr. President!

Mr. President?

Mudd's name still lives in infamy. And I will not let Thomas Gates' name be mud.

My God.

My name is Mitch Wilkinson.

Nearest highway is that direction. You'll understand if we part ways here.

Never seen so many relics.

New World treasure. The City of Gold."

Nice to see you two together again.

Nine.

No need to. The ink writing on the page is clearly visible.

No, actually, the guy you're thinking of is somewhere over there.

No, I'll tell you! There's that passageway.

No, if it's open, this tunnel will stay flooded.

No, it's a cipher leading to a map. Anyone spectral image the page?

No, it's all blocked. You can't even get back to the big, round stone door.

No, now, wait. Can't you ask him to wait until I prove Thomas is innocent?

No, of course not.

No, this glyph doesn't mean "Cíbola." It means "the center of the world."

No, you did it because you wanted to, and I would've done the same thing,

No!

No. Believe me, I understand.

No. No, Patrick, this is crazy.

No. That would be John Wilkes Booth.

None taken. He's my favorite too.

Not coming for you, they're for me. Go to the car.

Not if the answer's something we need to figure out as a couple.

Not quite. We found the City of Gold.

Not that I'm surprised.

Not up to me. It's not my department.

Not when he's surrounded by handlers. If I get him alone...

Now I've moved out, we're dividing furniture...

Now look what you've done. You've brought the little bobbies down on us!

Obviously you have a tendency to overreact!

Of course someone else is after the treasure.

Of course you see no problem

Of course. I was actually going to call you about the diary page.

Of George Washington. I thought you might want to take a look at this.

Of the Maryland constitution, I'm allowed to fish in public water?

Of treasure hunter Benjamin Franklin Gates."

Of what's OK for me to say or not write something...

Oh, Abigail.

Oh, I was hoping to get some of these boxes out of the house.

Oh, my gosh. Are you Ben Gates?

Oh, no.

Oh, that's beautiful!

Oh, that's, uh... The Resolute desk.

Oh, this doesn't involve another treasure hunt, does it?

Oh, wow. Is this a book about the Templar treasure?

Oh, you think this is a treasure map for Cíbola, don't you?

Oh! [Laughs]

Oh! I... I did, yes.

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! That's it. I found it. Over here! Found it! Over here!

Oh.

Oh. Sorry.

Oh. Uh...

OK, Ben, I've got to go.

OK, four drawers... Four digit combination?

OK, run along now, you impossible child. Run along.

OK, what else?

OK.

OK. It's teatime, chaps.

OK. Let me try this out.

OK. Mitch, the idol. OK, Ben. We found a gold idol here!

OK. We can do this.

OK. We're in London. We're going to Buckingham Palace.

OK...

On an island that didn't exist

One is in New York, one in the Luxembourg Garden.

One of us keeps the door open and stays behind.

One step at a time.

One step at a time. Good.

One was a slave named Estebán who saved a local tribe's dying chief.

One, two, three.

Only a handful of people study these languages.

Only way you'll ever see that book is if you get elected president.

Operating in the north to subvert Union forces.

Or maybe there was a treasure map like Thomas Gates said there was,

Or the weight of history that falls upon you.

Out here, I'm talking to you as a friend.

Page 47. Just have a look at that.

Patrick, Emily, go!

People don't believe that stuff anymore.

People used to say, "The United States are."

Perhaps not. But then again, I have this.

Plank photographed and then destroyed.

Playfair ciphers encode letters in pairs. This could prove his story.

Playing underneath while his father was working.

Please, come on.

Popped down to the pub for a pint! Bit of all right!

Prime Minister, it's a delight to have you back in the States.

Proof, proof, proof.

Put your light over there.

Queen Victoria had two desks made from its timbers.

Read my book, and you'd know you can't get to that book.

Released in '66 under the Freedom of Information Act.

Residual ink from the facing page. Flip it.

Resolute.

Resolute. And then twins.

Ridiculous. You're staying.

Right.

Riley, meet me at the Library of Congress in 20 minutes.

Riley, move forward! Move forward!

Riley! Come out here!

Riley! Hang on!

Riley. Move slowly to that corner. No! Wait. Just...

Sacred calendrical? I don't know.

Sadusky.

Same symbol.

See? I'm right here! I'm staying!

Seems the dear old queen was partial to the Confederate cause.

Seven.

She thinks that even when I'm right, I'm wrong! Isn't that right?

She was frantic. She was frantic.

Siamese twins? Siam? Trade routes between France and Thailand?

Sir, I know the book exists, and my question is,

Sir?

Sir? Looks like our old friend Ben Gates is in the news again.

Six million dollars.

Six.

Small door on the front of the desk.

Small ones, big ones, some as big as your head!

So beautifully preserved.

So Gates abducts the president, lets him go

So how am I gonna get him alone?

So I think it smells kind of pretty.

So is Gunston Hall and Tudor Place.

So just go away.

So recapping:

So the only question is, which Statue of Liberty?

So we come back when it's raining?

So where does that leave me, Ben?

So why does a black market antiquities dealer...

So you go one...

So you're saying that whatever was on that plank

So, um, the tea tables...

So, when you say "so," it means you're angry.

So?

So? Laboulaye was well known in France. It could be nothing.

So...

So... forward.

Some historian claims the Spencer Landmark Hotel

Someone else is after the treasure.

Someone or something is causing this.

Something he could sell to a private collector for a good deal of money?

Sometimes. And then sometimes it doesn't.

Sounds like he cracked the cipher. I couldn't help but overhear.

Spread the word, contribution limits not enforced on the president's birth...

Stands for special collections, which means very special books.

Stop it. Coming through, did you see any branches that could lead out?

Stop! Stop!

Stop. Stop it.

Strike that. The Denby was booked. Mount Vernon's all we got.

Suggesting contact with Laboulaye, who'll hide clues before his death."

Surrender your hand.

Sweetheart. Sweetheart. Have a look at this.

Take a look.

Tell him anything but the truth. Get rid of him. His life depends on it.

Tell that to my father.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much.

Thank you, Dr. Nichols. I only wish my grandfather

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Thanks for agreeing to meet with me.

Thanks for waiting for me. Can I see the thing?

Thanks, Riley.

That department reports to your department.

That did not turn out the way it was supposed to!

That doesn't belong to the first lady in the Oval Office.

That door is not gonna stay open by itself.

That is a good idea.

That is so cool, Connor. I have always wanted to see the Oval Office.

That it's the symbol for the President's Secret Book.

That long?

That may be, but I'm gonna need to have you move upriver.

That path doesn't lead to the City of Gold, does it?

That symbol is Cíbola.

That this desk has a twin that sits in Buckingham Palace.

That was brilliant.

That was not love. That was excitement, adrenaline and tequila.

That's all that matters. You heard the story from Grandpa.

That's Cíbola.

That's five letters.

That's it?

That's it.

That's not true. Do you know the expression, "His name is mud"?

That's OK. We need a five letter keyword.

That's probably a horrible trap. Tell him!

That's very nice, but it's a bad time right now.

That's what the Lakota used to call the Black Hills in South Dakota.

That's what we're going to prove.

That's where they slit the throat, cut the heart out.

That's why I tell people to get a dog.

The 18 and a half missing minutes of the Watergate tapes.

The arrowhead...

The book exists.

The book is passed from president to president,

The book known only to our presidents.

The cipher written into the Booth diary page that Thomas tried to burn.

The City of Gold.

The debt that all men p... [stammers]

The debt that all men pay is death.

The debt that Thomas paid.

The Denby Hotel is available, and so is Mount Vernon.

The eagle and the scroll,

The eagle clutching the scroll.

The eagle with the scroll?

The eagle's holding a scroll instead of olive branches.

The elevator shaft gets you close,

The fire alarm's gone off.

The first is received. Contains information regarding

The following conversation never happened.

The house was broken into last night. I was attacked.

The hummingbird was good. Let her go.

The Knights of the Golden Circle was a Southern extremist group,

The location is the combination.

The luggage. It was full with that stupid rug you bought.

The Oval Office... to be exact.

The pipe burst in the hotel that we previously booked.

The president. What president?

The president's been what?

The Resolute desk is near the south wall in the Oval Office.

The Resolute desk. The Resolute desk?

The rest of us, on my count of three, all move together.

The story? This guy's got evidence. He's got everything.

The war has only just begun!

The water's rising too fast!

The way out is just down those stairs.

The White House?

Then I got audited and slapped with a huge fine plus interest.

There are several others.

There are three, actually, Riley.

There is a book.

There were only four survivors.

There's a picture of me right there.

There's a reason why we haven't spoken in 32 years.

There's more to the map? How are we going to find that?

There's nothing there.

These are definitely pre colonial Native American markings.

These are trained mercenaries as well as being black market antiquities dealers.

These glyphs are only partials. So you only have half a treasure map.

These markings, like Incan or Aztec.

They want a quote on, "Is the president being insensitive to minority issues?"

They want to believe it.

They'll find us both and arrest us both.

Think there may be a clue on the Resolute desk in the queen's study.

This has been handed down by my family for 140 years.

This is a map of Mount Vernon drawn by George Washington himself.

This is an extinct, exceedingly rare language.

This is an outrage. You're calling my grandfather a liar.

This is gonna unlock the Olmec language.

This is like, impossible, what you're doing.

This is ridiculous. Are we going to water the whole thing?

This isn't a democracy.

This line is an underground tunnel, an escape route that was never found.

This man has information you need. He's got a letter.

This piece of information is worthless without your translation of the planks.

This way.

This will be good.

This... this glyph here, that means "bird." And that means...

Thomas Gates gave his last full measure of devotion

Thomas Gates. Thomas Gates is said to be the great great grandfather

Three seven nine four.

To find the City of Gold, to be remembered.

To his country to stop the KGC.

To keep Booth's men from finding the treasure.

To the discovery of the greatest Native American treasure of all time.

Tom, alert the vice president.

Tomorrow?

Travel case is not luggage. The case goes into the luggage.

Treasure hunting paid off, in case you haven't read the papers.

Try "Death."

Try any funny business, I guarantee you people are going to get hurt!

Twenty hundred time check. Station 11.

Two hundred people know you held me against my will. I can't tell them why.

Two three four seven eight six.

Two three four seven nine one.

Two three six seven...

Uh oh.

Uh oh. God save the queen.

Uh, "noble bird."

Uh, let me see. Queen Victoria, born 1819.

Uh!

Uh...

Um, maybe I should go.

Um... No, I don't know that language. I'm sorry. I can't help you.

Um..."Across the sea these twins stand determined..."

Under Lincoln... we became one nation.

Universities, I suppose. But you don't have the whole thing.

Unless you decode the cipher, this does not prove a theory.

Unless you find what you're looking for,

Voilà. Resolute twins.

Wait, so we have to...

Wait! Wait! That's my car!

Wait. The queen wanted to help the Confederacy?

Wanna know what taxes are on five million dollars?

Was a mastermind to one of the darkest hours in U.S. History.

Was used for Klan meetings in the late 1800s.

Wasn't until the war ended people started saying, "The United States is."

Watch out!

Way up in my family tree, name of Silas Wilkinson.

We actually found some latent letter fragments on it.

We can figure this out! We can all get out!

We can roll it over to offset your weight!

We cracked the cipher. It's "Laboulaye."

We don't want to miss that appointment.

We got something that we'd like you to take a look at.

We have 30 seconds after the alert starts to disable the alarm.

We have a story. We have nothing.

We have to balance our weight to even this thing out.

We have to turn back!

We know it leads to Mount Rushmore.

We think the map's divided between the two Resolute desks.

We were hoping that you could translate it.

We were just talking about you. Ready to turn yourself in?

We won't have to. Gates will get it somehow.

We'll do this your way.

We'll test this thoroughly, Patrick, to authenticate it.

We're all going to die, or it could just be me!

We're going to jail.

We're gonna have to leave one person behind.

We're in the right place.

We're the ones with the firepower, and you're giving me orders.

We've got to get to the other side and close the door.

Well done, Mr. Poole.

Well then, fine! If that's what you want, let's have it out now!

Well, my girlfriend kicked me out, I'm living with my dad,

Well, that is exactly what it is.

Well, that's it, I'm afraid.

Well, yes, Ben did, but I am the co finder.

Well, you never know.

Well... here we are.

Went to Buckingham Palace, all I got was this wood?

What about a year?

What are you doing?

What are you doing? Are those for the queen?

What clever repartee. She must like him.

What did he find now? Atlantis?

What did the letter say? What's the clue from Queen Victoria's letter?

What did the president say the number was?

What do you mean?

What do you think happened to that Booth diary page

What do you think it means?

What happened to you? Your father was worried sick about you.

What if he isn't innocent?

What is going on?

What is that?

What makes you think I'd agree?

What proof?

What?

What's on page 47? Are you talking about the Book?

What's the point? What am I looking for?

What's up there, Mitch?

When attending the theater. Listening? Especially on Good Friday.

When General Custer's search for gold ended with his last stand

When someone dies for their country, I believe they should be honored.

When the Resolute desk was placed in the Oval Office,

When the ship was finally retired,

When you get to a conclusion without asking,

Where "I assume I'm right." Get us out. Which I don't get.

Where are my sledgehammers?

Where are we to find them?

Where's the Ferrari?

Where's the phone?

Whether by innate character, or the oath you took to defend the Constitution,

Whoa, whoa!

Why are they standing in the middle of the street?

Why couldn't a girl see me do that?

Why do you think I would actually just give it to you?

Why don't you ask Abigail for her help?

Why would I overreact to that?

Wilkinson is saying that Thomas Gates

Will get credit for this discovery.

Will you give me the flowers back, please?

With his life.

With respect, now you're calling my great great granddaddy a liar.

With the burning of this, the final clue.

With the name Thomas Gates written on a list along with all the other killers.

Women. Can't live with them, especially if they change the alarm codes.

Wrong about us, wrong about Thomas Gates,

X Y two three four seven eight six.

X Y two three four seven eight six. X Y two three four seven eight six.

X Y two three three, two three seven eight... Here.

X, Y, two, three, four, seven, eight, six.

Yeah, but this is where the fish are, son.

Yeah, I love it.

Yeah, it's true. [Clears throat]

Yeah, like, "So, I guess my opinion doesn't matter."

Yeah, should be in here.

Yeah, you must have the Secret Service hopping about now.

Yeah.

Yes, and you also insisted on loading the luggage into the taxi.

Yes, it is about the Templar treasure, but it's also about other things.

Yes, of course you were.

Yes, of course. And I'm sure she's just as proud of you as I am.

Yes, sir, I am. This isn't some garbage from a history book.

Yes, sir.

Yes, yes, definitely proto Zoquean.

Yes.

Yes. "Islands... Islands of stone in a sea of grass."

Yes. Thank you.

You and I both know he burned the page

You and me are going to open that door. Anybody tries to leave before me,

You and your missis, take it outside.

You can have the Boston Tea Tables.

You can stand around guessing for a while, or I can give you the next clue.

You did that in 25 seconds.

You didn't happen to see a cute brunette wandering around?

You do all this, you're willing to go to prison,

You don't know Benjamin.

You don't negotiate very well, do you?

You go, pull those stones out, because that leads somewhere.

You guys are so great together.

You have brought honor to your country and your family.

You know how much our constitution was influenced by your man, Montesquieu?

You know where it is? Why didn't you tell me?

You know, Craig, I appreciate you doing your job,

You know, you used to like it. She fell in love with me on a treasure hunt.

You make my parents leave. You make my parents leave.

You need a sunny day... and rain.

You saw the page yourself. There is no treasure map on it.

You see that? Burned out right there.

You see, I have one of those great great granddaddies, like you,

You see?

You see? Everybody, listen to this. This is more interesting than that.

You see? One syllable, a knife in the heart.

You tell me what you know, I'll find the City of Gold,

You thought it had secret stitching.

You wouldn't be able to get a few minutes.

You'll also need to know three, seven, nine, four.

You'll be charged with kidnapping the president.

You're all traitors.

You're just the best. Mm.

You're not going to tell me how to get out of here

You're the director of document conservation. You know this.

You're the one making a scene.

You're wrong about that.

You're wrong to assume I'd like the chair.

You've been in my desk too?

You've got to find it. You're going to help me find it. So come on.

Your ex husband's on his way up. He wants the translation.

"Malcolm Gilvary, 1880." Hold on one second.

"Surratt, copiae"? Military supplies.

"The debt that all men pay." "The debt that all men pay"?

"The President's Secret Book"? "The President's Secret Book."

"Thomas Gates, artifex." "Designer"

"Thus always to..." "Thus always to tyrants." We know.

[Abigail] Ben. What?

[Alarm chirps] Have a good night.

[Audience laughs] [Screaming]

[beeping] [Riley] Oh.

[Ben] Empty. [Abigail] Someone must've taken it.

[Ben] Hi, Mom. [Woman] Benjamin!

[Ben] I'm not sure what this is. [Patrick] What do we do?

[Ben] Mom... I was trying to get course credit.

[Ben] That Connor in the bunny suit? Thank you.

[Clears throat] [Moaning]

[Gasping] Ah!

[Grunts] [Horse whinnies]

[Honking] [Screaming]

[Honking] Ah! Ah!

[Horse grunts] Whoa.

[Man] In here, please. Why don't you just make a list

[Man] Moron! [Honking]

[Man] President Lincoln's been shot! [Man 2] Everybody, out! All of you!

[Patrick] It indicates direction... [Riley] Somehow that bird...

[Phone rings] Oh, excuse me.

[Police siren blares] What is it?

[Speaks French] OK?

[Straining] Hang on!

[Straining] Mitch!

[Woman 2] Ah, that's my own girl. [Laughter]

[Woman] Thought my relatives were bad. What do we know about this Wilkinson?

[man] All clear. Perimeter secure. Hey.

[Riley] Door number one, opening. [Buzzing]

[Riley] She's really there? Ben...

Drop her. Lose her. I want to help.

I got it. [Ben] Look.

Remember the plan. You don't need it?

So subtle. Let me guess? It's the wrong time.

Son, just be careful. Goodbye. Bye.

Take it to Mom for translation. Why me?

A bad time, right now? It's a bad time.

A divided America'd have been weaker. Needed cotton from the South.

A symbol stamped into the wood. The presidential seal.

Abigail! Hey, Patrick.

Abigail... [clicking]

All right, ready? Now!

All right. Uh, can I get a printout of this?

And Latin? Booth was a student of Latin.

And where are those desks now? The closest one is in London.

And, Gates... Sir?

Any news? Well...

Anyone know if this is true? I've got the Washington Gazette.

Architectural history major, Yale. I did not know that.

Are you Thomas Gates? Yes.

Area 51! Shh!

arguing during the fake argument? The middle.

As I move to this corner. OK.

Ask me what? Nothing.

Awkward. Oh, great. [Laughs]

Been drinking, have we? Just a nip.

Ben sent me. He needs your help. Yes, of course.

Ben, they're getting closer. What is their problem?

Ben! Whee!

Ben! Look at this! Look! Oh, yeah.

Ben. Abigail.

But... Guys, take a look at this.

Check your primary stations. This doesn't make any sense.

Come on, come on. Danny, I want them stopped.

Connor, good to see you again. Gates.

Crazy? Yeah.

Dad! The war is over.

Dad. Ben.

Dead end. [Riley] I mean right. Go right.

Did I just run over a man's foot? [Abigail] Watch the people!

Didn't insist. I loaded the luggage. Not the travel case.

Do you know what it means? Yeah.

Do you think it fell down here? Yes.

Doesn't matter. Get a list of approved alternates.

Doesn't think I can what? She wants to see the Oval Office.

Don't leave me in here! That's great. Wow.

Door number two. Door two, coming up.

Dr. Appleton. This office is closed. I'm sorry.

Drive, drive, drive! OK.

Easily 500 years old. Easily.

Enough. Bangers and mash.

Gates, what are you doing? I'm sorry, Mr. President.

Gates. Sir?

Gates. Sir.

Get out of the way! [Honking]

Give it to me. ...bring it out.

Give my friend your flashlight. Thank you.

Go left! Go left! Hold on.

Go. [Beeping]

Good afternoon, sir. [English accent] Hello.

Good evening, sir. Good evening.

Good night. Good night.

Got it. All right, let's go.

Gunston Hall. Monticello is booked.

Guys! It's three against one here.

Happy birthday. Always a pleasure. Thank you so much.

Happy birthday. Thank you.

Have an interest in history? Fascinated by it.

Have his number in your speed dial? Oh, shu...

He's got a point. I guess so.

He's in! Go! Hang on!

He's right there! Go! Move!

He's the one after the treasure. I'll drive.

Hey! Hey! Connor!

Hey. Hey.

Hey. No one else can translate it. There are others.

Hi. Dr. Chase.

Hold it! Who are you? We work here.

How absurd. That's a lie!

How are we going to find Ben? I don't know.

How stupid was that? Did have stitching.

How? These axes, the angle's off.

How'd they find us so quick? I'll tell you how.

I can do that. Really?

I have my proof. Ben!

I hope you read French. May I?

I mean, what's left of a ladder. Toss me the light.

I need one minute. Please, take your time.

I see. Could mean mastermind of anything.

I want you to do something for me. It would be a privilege, sir.

I was thinking Mount Vernon. Oh.

I... I'm not making a scene right now. We want to make a scene.

I... There is water everywhere. A retirement party for 200 people.

I'm astonished. I got it, I got it.

I'm ready! It's all yours!

I'm Riley. We met, uh, back in... Right. You're, uh, Ben's assistant.

I'm so glad you decided to come... Hey.

I'm sorry. Not a problem.

I'm sorry. So am I.

Is that right? It's true, sir.

Isn't that something? Who knew?

it was a fake argument? When'd you figure out I was

It's a cipher. Yes. It is.

It's a clue. "These twins stand resolute."

It's been, what? Twenty five years. Thirty two.

It's the axiom of treasure hunting. We have to hurry and see that desk.

It's the flowers, Ben. No, it's not.

It's too dangerous. I am so coming.

Keep going. That's stupid.

Kennedy assassination. Shh! We don't have time.

L A D. Aladdin! Aladdin?

Laboulaye! Laboulaye!

Lady! Thank you, Abigail!

Look at that. It's an eagle. There it is.

Look. Course one of 'em found the map.

May I, Mr? Wilkinson.

May I? Absolutely.

Maybe. Gates seen this?

Mm. Wow.

Mr. President? Craig, give us a minute.

My car's parked... One second I'm reading...

my family killed President Lincoln. All right.

Nice helicopter. Is that yours? Yes, actually. It is.

Nice to meet you. Have a seat.

Nichols has bought into it. See? Would you stop watching that.

No stopping it now. Gates may have been the architect...

No, I haven't read it yet. Mm.

No, I'll tell you. No. I'll tell you!

No, ma'am. You haven't?

No, really. What? I really wouldn't want to impose.

No! [Gasping] No!

No! Go! I'll meet up with you.

No! Let's go!

No. Don't let her go.

No. No!

No. Yes.

No. No, it's broken. All right. Give me the plank.

No. That is way too much to ask. No, it's, uh...

No. You used the word "so." So?

Now we're a bunch of crazies. But we're not liars.

Now, see, there you are correct. Capital. Topper.

Oh, I've never heard of you. Oh!

Oh, no. She can do that.

Oh, wow. You are a lifesaver. The Denby is great.

Oh, yeah. Oh, that... Carry on.

Oh... What?

Oi! Sparkle. Come on. OK. Here we go.

Oi! Where are my detainees? OK, let's make some noise.

OK, so you get the ticket. [Laughs] Great.

OK. That's actually kind of...

Okey dokey. You can't do it?

One... two... three! Go!

Only one way to find out, sir. Maybe we should take a look.

Only one way to prove it. Find the treasure.

Open the door! I'll get you out! The current's too strong!

or "mastermind." I know what it means.

Our president? Unfortunately, yes.

Patrick, what have you done? Some kind of a bolt. I didn't do it.

Patrick. Patrick! [Abigail] Ben, what is that?

Perhaps not. [Crowd murmuring]

Playfair cipher? Can you decode it?

Resolute. "Resolute," yeah.

Right over there. I got them.

Riley. Thank you. OK.

See that? Oh.

See you later. Thank you. Bye bye. Sit! Sorry!

She hung up. She took your call. That was good.

Sir! Haggis!

Sir? Guy claims he had this page

Six phony green leather suitcases... Mom.

So it's good. Life altering, sir.

So the author's here signing copies? I'm the author.

Special section for... ...a book, then we're rushed out...

Tell them I found it! Don't quit!

Temporary till I find a new place. Find the old one. I like her.

Thank you. [Applause]

Thank you. Craig.

That makes you next. I'll go last.

That should be exciting. We got to get you in that room.

that was pulled out of the fire? We may never know.

That's it! Dismount the banister! I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts!

That's not funny. I'm your father.

That's quite something, isn't it? Yeah. It says "smudge."

That's very good. Thank you.

That's what couples do! Sir.

The flowers... petals... stamens. Good. Good.

The one we have. Exactly. "1880.

The president is a tattletale! Sadusky. He was there.

Then there was a commotion. Got all that. Anything after that?

There's a tunnel back in through here. Guys, look at this.

Thomas was right! No, you were right!

Two three four seven nine... Seventy six, 78...

Uh huh. Now what? We need to join hands,

Uh oh. What's the problem?

Uh, no. Uh, yes.

Uh... Laboulaye, 1876." Six.

Wait a minute. What?

Want to know why I'm here? Uh huh.

We have nothing in common. Me?

We just ran into each other. Oh.

we need to find an island of stone. Ben would have found it by now.

We think it might be Olmec. It is.

We won't keep you. Thanks so much. Always a pleasure.

We'll find 'em. What are we gonna do?

We're trapped! Hang on! Keep your heads down.

Well... [laughs]

What are you doing here? I just needed to get some things.

What are you doing? See the desk, without you.

What did you take? It's just my things.

What do you have? Yeah, I know it's short notice.

What do you mean by "a key"? A keyword or phrase.

What is that a picture of? It's interesting.

What is that? It's a six dial combination lock.

What is that? It's a who. Édouard Laboulaye.

What is that? Someone's phone. It's him.

What is this? [Running water]

What was that? Listen.

What you want me to do? Stop! Stop!

What? I'm going with you.

What? I'm in.

What? It's the keycode.

What? Wearing the perfume I bought you.

What? What good would that do?

What's right or wrong... You two, stay.

What's she doing here? What're you doing?

What's the keyword? I don't know yet.

What's this in my hand? Are you blind? Good, good, good.

Where are these people going? Why's everyone running?

Where are they? This way. We'll sneak in.

Where do we start? XY is the book classification code.

Where is it? Where else do you keep a book?

Where's the President's Book kept? Only the current president knows.

Which president? The president? I thought it best not to tell you.

Who was in charge of packing? I couldn't get the case into

Why send us here if there's no book? He probably wanted us to get caught.

Why? Maybe he wants to check out a book.

Why? We'll find out.

Wilkinson. Stop them. Go, go, go!

Will you relax? It's gonna be fine. Sure. Should look at the bright side.

Will you sign it? [Crashing]

with your buzzing there. Hey!

Wonderful. Yeah.

Yeah, I'm really... Dinner tomorrow night?

Yeah, well, we're not. Yeah.

Yeah. And we're standing right here, sir.

Yeah. Why don't we, um, go over here

Yes, I do. Well, it's being towed.

Yes. Excellent point,

Yes. Have you catalogued all of this?

Yes. Amazing, huh? Oh, could...

Yes. Yes, I am. Do you own a red Ferrari?

You are? Yeah. See, uh...

You can do that? Yes, I can do that.

You can? Yeah.

You did sit on the sofa. Oh, the bunnies.

You didn't even open it? I was moving.

You don't think we know about it? But is it true?

You found it. I did.

You happy? Oh, yeah.

You know Montesquieu? Got it.

You know what that means. Yes, sir. Very much so, sir.

You OK? No.

You ready? Go.

You're a treasure hunter. No, ma'am.

You're coming with me. No!

You're not coming. Call security.

You're saying that I'm never right? I did not say that.

"Find where the moon touches the earth and release the hummingbird."

"No, we'll figure something else out." "We need you there. Please, Riley."

"On the page are the names of the conspirators

"So, you seem to always know what's best." "So, I guess I'm invisible."

"So?"

"The entrance shall only be revealed under a cloudless rain."
