or burned.

Right above the water line.

- What are Zeds?

- Tortured souls of the human dead.

What the hell.

Lead the way.

Don't be scared, Mia. An

animal probably found the body

and damaged it

before it was even buried.

It's not an animal...

and they don't get scared.

Attention, please!

We're gonna be moving

the dig over this way.

Mia just found something

that appears to be

Neanderthal remains.

What are you sensing?

The god of this planet,

the same as ours.

But he takes a more active role

in affairs here.

[India]

I'll be gone about an hour

depending on how many questions

our financing source asks.

Thanks to you,

we have the skulls to show

that we're making progress.

You're welcome.

But I wouldn't call it progress.

More of a warning

you should heed.

Are you always this ominous?

Only before

a planet's destruction.

I'll give them a tour.

Okay. Good.

Well, have fun.

Or be ominous.

Whatever turns you on.

[boys speaking Hebrew]

No, no, no, no, no!

Pay! Pay! No, no!

Don't you guys have money

where you come from?

[man] Give it up, old lady!

Give it up!

- My parcel... Ohhh!

- Hey!

[woman shouting]

Sleep.

Th-There is a God.

[laughs]

Thank you, human.

You can call me Magnum.

[music, no audible dialogue]

[no audible dialogue]

[Mia] Within this wall

is the force of a god's power.

An energy stronger

than I've ever felt,

and festering like a cosmic

storm ready to escape its cage.

It is the source of all that is

good and evil in this world.

And if my visions are true,

then this force is about

to be harnessed by evil

for evil's sake.

Unless we can stop it.

[distant shouting]

[crowd whistling, cheering]

- Aunt India, it's creepy as hell.

- I know.

Any thoughts?

You wouldn't believe us.

Try me. I always keep

an open mind.

[Magnum]

should we tell her?

We found the same type of

skeleton where we came from...

as part of our pre-history,

as well.

- They were dead.

- Yes. They're dead.

They were already dead

when they were killed.

Well, yes, there have

been instances of warring tribes

who dug up and mutilated

dead bodies of other tribes,

purely for disrespect

and humiliation.

They didn't mutilate dead bodies...

they killed the dead.

Do you understand

the difference?

Not in the slightest.

Dead people rose from the dead

and had to be killed again.

You're good. I actually thought

you might know something.

In fifth grade,

kids would make fun of me

because of my interest

in archeology and paleontology.

I mean,

who could blame them?

My parents did name me

India Jones.

One time,

even a teacher joined in.

In the site where he knew

I was digging,

he buried some KFC chicken
