It's common in ritual sacrifice

to take the heart of the victim.

That's nice.

But that's not where your heart is.

Besides, it looks like the bones

were bent straight out.

Something broke out of this body.

- What have you found, Max?

- It's a shaft to another level.

Looks like there's another room down there.

- Let's move to that lower room.

- We're moving on, everyone.

Ms. Woods.

You, stay here. Rousseau, you stay with him.

Keep a team with you.

Catalogue everything.

Professor.

This should be directly below

the sacrificial chamber.

Sebastian.

It's a sarcophagus.

This is the Long Count.

This is the Aztec calendar.

And this, it's some kind of combination lock.

"Days."

"Months."

"Years."

The dials are set for...

Someone opened this 100 years ago?

- What's today's date?

- October 10.

- Are you sure this is gonna work?

- I don't know.

Back up!

Oh, my God. Take a look at this.

- Any idea what these are?

- No.

- You?

- No.

- It's a good thing we brought the experts.

- Well, yeah. It is a good thing.

'Cause this is like finding

Moses' DVD collection.

Weyland?

A little too much excitement.

We've been out long enough for today.

We'll set up base camp at the whaling station

and get back at it tomorrow morning.

Well, you can go back to the base camp,

Ms. Woods, but we're staying here.

No. You wanted to leave

without proper prep. We did.

You wanted to be the first here. We are.

You've claimed the find. It's yours.

Now, we move as a team,

and we're done for the day.

You heard her.

- What do you wanna do with these?

- Take them.

We'll run further tests on the surface.

No. No! Don't touch them.

- Watch out!

- The doors!

The door!

- You OK?

- Yeah.

Slab's gotta weigh two tons.

We'll never move it.

What did you say this room was called?

Sacrificial chamber.

- Rousseau.

- Tommy, come in.

- Come in, Rousseau.

- Come in.

- Is there anything you didn't tell me?

- Nothing. Your guess is as good as mine.

Whatever it is, we're not prepared.

We're gonna round up the rest of the team

and get to the surface. Let's move!

- What are you doing?

- My job. Yours is over.

My job is over when everyone

is back on the boat safely.

And that gun doesn't change anything.

This bearing should take us back to the

entrance. We'll regroup at the whaling station.

What about Thomas? Rousseau?

- We'll find them on the way up.

- Max?

Stone, Verheiden. Cover our backs.

The heat bloom your satellite detected

makes more sense now.

What do you mean?

A building this sophisticated

requires an energy source.

I think that's what your satellite detected.

A power plant for this pyramid firing up.
