In excavation, it's very important not to disturb anything.
It's a delicate dance of brushing and scraping.
Could you please get that out of his mouth?
He's fine. I'm sure he's just teething.
Plus, a little dirt's good for him. Dirt is our friend.
Yes, it makes the flowers grow, doesn't it?
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
No, it's okay. It's okay. Honey.
Okay, come on now.
You've got a gift.
Your cuddles have never failed.
Are these excavation videos or family memories?
Alex shot a lot of video, loved to capture everything.
He was good at that.
What he wasn't good at was keeping track of it all.
What about these?
"How to shave." "How to change a spare tire."
What are these?
Alex knew he might be forced to leave you early
and you would need some fatherly insight.
Is that crying?
Did you start another video?
No, it appears to be coming from somewhere out there.
This way, in the Mesoamerican chamber.
Whatever's crying is definitely in this room.
Hit the lights.
The lights in this area can be tricky sometimes.
Larry, can you check the cord connection in the next room?
Aye, aye, Captain.
Well, go on. I'm right here.
I am not good in tight spaces.
Hey, is that a long-count Mayan calendar?
Wow. I've always wanted to--
Stupid briar.
No way. I can't do this. I'm waiting for the lights.
The cords are fine.
The lights are old as dust. Keep jiggling it.
Don't worry, kid. I'll locate the culprit.
Found it.
Hey, yeah.
I'm still not used to this whole artifact-coming-to-life thing.
Yeah, but not all of them are this annoying.
How do we get it to stop?
Well, don't look at me. I have no experience dealing with babies.
Hey, there.
It's okay, little guy.
All right, yeah. This is beyond us.
You need help with what?
I'm really over this.
Agreed.
Don't worry, boys. I've had plenty of experience.
This is a perfect opportunity
for the tried-and-true Sky Vanderhouven DHC method.
First, D, diaper.
The main cause of tears is usually a dirty rump.
Okay, obviously, no diaper.
Onto H, hungry.
A hungry baby is a cranky baby.
Does anyone have any food?
You keep candy in there?
Do you guys even eat?
No. But a good sailor is prepared for anything.
Now that's just ungrateful.
That's fine. We've still got C, cuddling.
Sky's famous cuddles have never failed.
Okay. There, there.
It's not working. What's the next step?
There is no next step.
DHC has always worked.
Oh, no. It woke up another one.
It's okay.
You two get that third one.
-But we don't know what-- -Come on.
Anything to stop this awful racket.
Well, with all of them awake, at least it can't get any worse.
It's so loud.
What's going on down here?
A baby statue? That's so cute.
Baby, go to sleep.
Sleep, little baby.
You are stinking cute.
And you need to go to sleep.
What?
I guess I'm just a born nurturer.
Aren't I, sweetie? Yes, I am.
How do you parents do it?
All that crying.
I couldn't even see straight.
Honestly, when someone you love needs you, you just figure it out.
Good thing I'm so skilled at lullabies.
Worked like a charm.
Okay, so clearly these are the next artifacts we need to make right by.
And the quicker we return them, the better.
What do we know?
Well, we found them in the Mesoamerican room,
-so they're probably from Southern Mexico. -True.
And I believe the Olmec
were the only ones who carved baby figures like this.
Olmec? What's that?
An extremely old civilization that predates the Aztecs.
Frankly, a lot about their culture is a complete mystery.
Hey, I found them.
Boom! Mystery solved.
I've got some bad news. I don't think it's gonna be that easy.
Nothing ever is.
According to what it says in Cornelius's journals,
he bought them from an illegal black market dealer.
Great.
So we have no idea what temple they were taken from or even what region.
So does that mean we can't return them?
Not necessarily.
My old mentor at the museum might be able to help.
She's a whiz at tracking down an item's source of origin.
That would be super helpful.
Can you hold down the fort while I leave for a bit?
I guess. We'll have to just figure it out.
These baby monitors will help.
They served your father and me well.
Why do you insist on having that thing with you all the time lately?
Do not call her "that thing." Her name is Linda.
You know this is her molting week,
and she can't be left alone during this vulnerable time.
Whatever.
Here, I'll take first shift.
But if I need backup, I'll call out for you.
Be on the ready.
10-4, good buddy.
Welcome to the Paxton Museum.
Come see my friends in the Dino Wing.
I'm tickled pink you reached out, Sky.
Hey.
It's been too long.
Thank you so much for seeing me, Director Snitker.
Please.
I may be the director now, but I'm still just good old Georgia.
How's that husband of yours?
You know, Alex. Lively as ever.
That is a beautiful piece.
Macedonian, if I'm not mistaken.
Indeed it is.
I'm sure you have a few in that eccentric mansion.
Maybe. That house is full of surprises.
So, you mentioned on the phone
you had a question for me about an artifact.
Yes, that's right.
What do you know about tracking the provenance of Olmec figures
that were purchased rather than excavated by a legitimate archaeologist?
That's almost impossible.
As you know, that civilization collapsed nearly 2,500 years ago.
And then most of their temples were looted by tomb raiders after that.
Of course.
But don't you know of any purchase records or anything?
Sadly, no.
I assume you're asking because of the new exhibit.
New exhibit?
Yes, a traveling exhibition of Olmec artifacts.
We're very fortunate they chose us.
Many museums were vying for the honor.
So these pieces just arrived?
Yes, we open in three days.
I'll give you a behind-the-scenes tour.
We should have some extra batteries, just in case this batch runs out.
Very well. Go get some from Alex's study.
You should do it. You have hands.
You're fully capable.
You only bring up the hands scenario when you're too lazy to do something.
Could you please keep it down?
Fine!
I will do it.
I am so sorry.
Code red. Code red.
Code red.
Grandpa, is that you?
Oh, no.
Grandpa is a zombie!
Oh, no. I think I broke it.
This is not good.
Back to Zombie Grandpa after these messages.
Uh-oh. Russ needs my help.
Oops, my bad.
The collection concentrates upon transformation figures,
as the Olmec believed that such sacred objects
could transform into animals such as jaguars, bats or even reptiles.
So, this artifact just arrived?
Just two nights ago.
Get back!
Lost it.
What happened to the babies?
Pan, run!
Huh?
Pan, you didn't calm them down earlier.
It was Linda!
Because she's a lizard?
No, because she reminds them of their mother.
Let's give them a family reunion.
Okay, everybody act cool.
Just a simple reverse heist
to reunite a statue family after hundreds of years apart.
Totally normal.
After having to take care of these little guys for a short time now,
I want to fully apologize
for everything I must have put you through when I was little.
Yeah, this is more work and stress than I could've ever imagined.
It is a lot of work.
But it's worth every second.
Their lunch break should start any minute.
Okay, that should give us plenty of time
to slip in and return these babies to their mother.
What about the guard?
You just leave that to me.
Linda, keep the babies in line.
Please, sir, we need your help.
A child is causing trouble in the Egyptian exhibit.
He's trying to unwrap the mummy!
Don't worry, ma'am, this is what I trained for.
Come see the dinosaur exhibit!
It's a roaring good time!
Wait, Linda!
Oh, no!
It's okay, Linda will be right back.
Pan, help!
Oh, no! They're about to go full lizard!
Could you please get control of those children?
Some of us are trying to enjoy the museum.
We are so sorry. We're trying our--
Hey, don't you dare judge our babysitting skills!
You have no idea!
They're escaping!
Why are you still here? You should be inside by now.
Two of the babies crawled into the vent.
No time to talk! Mom, you watch this one.
Russ, you're with me.
Don't do that.
Air vents are not safe transportation corridors.
Oh, man. More tight spaces?
You can do this.
Heavens! A lizard!
Linda!
Which way?
Over there!
-There, too! -We're going to have to split up.
That's a horrible idea.
Splitting up never turns out okay. We should--
Why do I even bother talking?
Hey, lizard baby, get back here!
Please?
No, no, no.
You're a fast one, Linda.
But not as fast as me.
Uh-uh. Oh, no, you don't.
You can do this.
Phew.
I really hate this.
Where are you?
I can't believe I'm doing this.
I lost it.
Oh, no, I lost it!
You may be able to quiet your footsteps, but vibrations don't lie.
You're close.
Huh?
Sorry, but this is for your own good!
Russ, I'm coming!
Got you!
Stop squirming!
Hold on!
We're alive!
-Kids! Are you okay? -Yep.
All four of us.
Huh?
Now, that's a beautiful sight.
I guess making right by something
doesn't always mean bringing it back to the region where it came from.
Yeah, looks like every artifact is going to need something different from us.
Each one is its own puzzle.
Luckily, you kids are so good at putting the pieces together.
I took care of those babies. It wasn't easy, but they needed me.
So, I figured it out.
Yep, our kids were amazing, Alex.
You would have been proud.
Hold a sec.
That might work!
I found a way to reach Dad!
