[Eshu gasps and sniffles]
[laughter]
[music subsides]
[poignant music playing]
[in Yoruba] It's showtime, baby.
[joyful music swells]
[music fades]
[cheering]
[in English] You were right, ma'am.
He is Eshu.
They just used his mask to teleport to the old city.
Yes, ma'am. On my way.
[insects chirping]
[screeching]
[both gasp]
-[both groan] -[Eshu laughs]
-Ugh! -[Eshu giggling]
Was that nice for you?
[retches]
[vomits]
The son of a bastard did it!
Teleportation in your pocket?
I'm sorry. My brain just exploded.
Excuse me.
Is that why Mila wants your power?
Because she could go anywhere in seconds?
He can do much more than that.
-Can't you? -[chuckles]
♪ Who can do anything Anything, anything? ♪
-[both gasp] -Me.
Ow!
[laughs happily]
They call you the god of evil
and the bringer of death.
That's more than an Orisha of crossroads who watches over travelers.
Who are you really, Eshu?
[somber music playing]
[wind gusting]
They tried to kill my father once.
The other Orisha.
My lovely aunts and uncles.
You should meet them sometime. They're terrible. You'd hate them.
Pettiness.
Destruction.
He didn't create us for that.
[gasps] You saved him, didn't you?
And he gifted you what in return?
A few tricks.
I'm the only one who can steal the powers of other Orisha.
You know, without the murder part.
So if any got too strong, you could stop them.
Or if they were needed, spread them.
Spread them?
The messenger for humanity.
Exactamundo, Crofty.
Yemi's thing is water, right? She can bend the local river like a pro.
But if my father wanted to flood the whole world,
he wouldn't ask her.
He would send for me.
You can spread other Orisha's powers.
That's why Mila wants your mask.
Disease is lovely, but limited to the space you're in.
Yes, sir.
If she takes Old Red here,
she could spread disease to every human on the planet in seconds.
The bringer of death.
You still glad you know me?
[Lara] Yes.
-I am. -[Sam] Mmm.
Huh? [chuckles]
You think she'll take the bait?
I'm sorry. She? Who? Bait? What now?
[Lara] Fig has been following our lead since Bahia.
She was bound to follow us to Morocco.
[Sam] And she did.
[Lara] Which means we have half a day at most.
[Eshu laughs]
I'm sorry. I'm… I'm confused.
You are leading the crazy lady who can kill Orishas right to us?
See? Not confused at all.
[Sam chuckles]
[inspiring music playing]
[Lara] This is perfect.
We'll take our stand here.
But we'll have to ask for help.
Hmm.
Follow me. I know just the place.
-[wind gusts heavily] -Huh?
-[gasping] -[rumbling]
[gasps]
[triumphant music playing]
[in Yoruba] We need your help.
[inaudible]
[music subsides]
[in English] You okay?
Lara. Is it enough?
[Lara] It'll have to be.
[Zip] Lara, you read me?
We're here.
Satellite shows Mila's plane heading your way, and she's got friends.
[Lara] ETA?
Better move your butts.
So, close, then.
Good luck, Lara.
[dramatic music playing]
[whirring]
-[mysterious music playing] -Ah.
Ogun told me about this place.
A once great civilization that rivaled Rome.
And because of you,
look at what it is now.
Well, they say history repeats itself.
The coward who abandoned his people.
I can end it for you, Eshu.
Your pain.
It's what you want, isn't it?
You don't really want all this responsibility.
It's tiring, and you deserve a rest.
I can end it for you,
and I can do it
from behind a familiar face.
You're sick.
Keep to the plan.
[sighs]
-[whooshing] -[both gasp]
Eshu, hold! We can do this.
Together.
I'm sorry.
She is right.
I am a coward.
Eshu, no!
[Mila chuckles]
[Lara] Hey, don't walk away from me.
You're a brilliant woman, Mila.
Do you really think that you're the savior here?
You're a conqueror.
Just like all the ones who came and destroyed life well before you.
You're an everyday villain.
[music ends]
[laughs]
A hero speech.
How original.
-[wind gusting] -[Lara yelps]
[cries out]
-[screams] -[Sam] Lara!
[wheezing] Stay… back!
-[tense music playing] -[Mila] I thought of sparing you.
The new world will require great leaders.
But then I saw you for what you are,
that night at the masquerade.
You put on a good show for your little friends.
[moans]
[Mila] But the truth is,
you think you can do it all without them.
-[creaking] -[Lara grunts]
-[whooshing] -[screams]
[Mila] You will never be the hero you think you are.
You put faith in no one but yourself, Lara Croft.
[power surging]
[Yaya laughs]
Find what you were looking for, turistas?
I put a little faith in others.
[leopards growling]
[Mila] Ugh!
[roars]
Find them!
[gasping]
[groans]
Uh, was the plan to stall her with your slow, painful death?
I did my best.
Hmm. We can do better.
You did great, sassenach.
[sighs]
[poignant music playing]
Gah! That was too close.
My babies!
-[both groan] -[Yaya] Back together again.
[Eshu] Ugh!
-[grunts] -Gross, Iya.
So what's phase two?
Don't look at me. He's the one wearing a meteor.
[people murmuring]
[sobs]
Why do you keep trusting me?
Because I believe we are more than our pain.
And you
are so much more.
Ugh. Damn it.
That's working.
All right, huddle up. I've got half an idea.
We do what humans do when they don't know what to do.
We are not running, brother.
No, no, no, not…
They ask for help.
They work together.
[in Yoruba] Yes, they do, baby.
[in English] I can steal our masks back,
but we need to draw her powers in one direction.
Create an opening.
[wind whistling]
[suspenseful music playing]
[helicopter blades whirring]
[grunts]
Huh?
[thrilling music playing]
[chuckling]
[yells]
[people yelping]
Kill her!
[grunts]
[straining]
[man wails]
[yells]
You really don't ever give up, do you?
My friends think it's charming.
[groans]
[gasps]
[Eshu chuckling]
Huh? [yelps]
[all yelling]
[Sam yells]
[dramatic music playing]
-[gasping] -[man] You again!
You're a little cockroach, aren't you?
Nighty night, little cockroach.
[Sam] Huh?
[groans]
[Yaya laughs]
[man yelps]
[Yaya yells]
[grunts]
[yells]
[roars]
[yelping]

[Taiwo yells]
[groans]
-[crunching] -[screams]
[shrieks]
[leopards growling]
[roaring]
[moans]
[screams]
That belongs to my sister.
[yelps]
[gasps]
No, please!
Maybe next time, take care who you put your faith in.
[groans]
[dramatic music continues]
[Sam] We can't get to her behind the shield.
[Lara] We have to keep trying.
[Mila] You think your tricks will work on me, coward?
Huh?
[Mila] I am more powerful than you'll ever be.
Who are you to challenge me?
I am the messenger for humanity.
I am the trickster extraordinaire.
[clucking]
[Taiwo] We got you, brother.
[Eshu] I am the warrior spirit,
Papa Legba.
I am Eshu, the bringer of death!
-[Mila roars] -[Eshu laughs]
Yah!
I'm over here!
-You missed me! -[grunts]
-[gasps] -[Eshu] Hey! Ha!
-[Mila screams] -[Eshu] Ciao, ciao!
[Mila screeching]
[Eshu] Yah!
You cannot have what is ours!
[screams]
[scream echoing]
[Eshu yelps]
Whoa!
[yelps]
[sighs]
[Mila screeches]
That belongs to me!
[shrieks]
[Taiwo strains]
[Eshu] Actually, it doesn't belong to you.
[dramatic music continues]
[gasps]
[Taiwo grunts]
[people cheering and laughing]
[in Yoruba] Now!
[gasps] Ugh!
[shrieks]
[gasps]
[roars]
[screams]
[music fades]
[crash echoing]
[Mila groans]
[in English] You think you can just kill my children and walk away?
[moans]
[coughs]
[strains]
[energy surging]
No! [shrieks]
No!
[screams]
[groans]
[wheezing]
-[power hums] -[Mila screeches]
It's not… possible.
[gasping in pain]
[shrieking]
[roaring]
You are in my land!
Anything is possible!
[uplifting music playing]
[birds sing]
[people cheering and whooping]
[Eshu] Whoa!
Eshu, Orisha of Thieves.
Not bad, little brother.
[cheering continues]
[lively drumming]
[people cheering happily]
[Eshu laughing]
Whoo!
[growls softly]
[snarls]
[rustling]
[squawking]
-[Sam sighs] -[laughs]
I got you!
No.
[chuckles]
[grunts]
I wanted to thank you guys.
You're the one who did it.
True, yes. I did. I mean, you almost died. Useless.
She didn't!
The point is,
while I did everything today…
[chuckles]
…I wouldn't have made it this far without you both.
I wouldn't have made it anywhere near here.
-[poignant music playing] -You are a special breed.
And for that, I will owe you one.
My special little human ladies.
-[Sam sighs] -[Lara chuckles]
[uplifting music playing]
-[energy surging] -[yelps]
[phone ringing]
Hello?
[Jonah] Um, Lara?
I think you're being robbed.
[phone ringing]
[Lara chuckles]
Detective Croft.
Thanks for the tip.
Any more catastrophic events in your diary I should know about?
None planned.
I'm thinking I'd like to stay in for a while.
Finally take up yoga.
Don't forget the dance lesson.
[chuckles]
Good. You could use a little less excitement.
Ah.
Someone wants to speak with you.
Thank you, Lady Croft.
It seems the apple can, in fact,
fall far from the tree.
These items will all be returned, as discussed.
Thank you.
And you, for your generous, uh, donation,
I'm sure we'll be in touch.
[hangs up]
This feels sad.
[Lara] I suppose that's how all ends of an era feel,
but it's still the right thing to do.
My father loved these relics,
but they don't all belong to him.
[laughs]
Oh. You going on an adventure?
Eshu gave me a list of places in Africa that are must-sees.
It's the size of a novel.
[sighs] And I feel ready.
[Abby] Mmm!
For the road.
I'll keep watch while you're gone.
Oh, I could get used to staying in while someone else goes out.
Ooh, are those pork buns?
[poignant music continues]
[wind howling]
[solemn music playing]
[in Yoruba] Father.
I'm sorry I couldn't save them.
[sobs]
[energy humming]
[dramatic music playing]
The time has come to rebuild.
[sniffles]
[wind howling]
[woman grunts]
[shuddering]
[suspenseful music playing]
[sighs]
[yells]
-[bleeping] -[sighs]
Hmm.
[scoffs]
[in English] Told you your boss couldn't pull it off.
[Fig] Huh.
You ready to listen to someone who actually knows
how to handle Lara Croft?
[chuckles]
