Inside the pyramid and under the capstone, there is a column of light. Edward tosses the spear pieces into it and talks about power and stuff. The spear floats around in mid-air and then assembles itself. Kyle MacLachlan hams it up.
Outside, Bob and Noah have made their way to the front of the pyramid. Noah sighs that he can't fight the Brotherhood alone. Bob reminds Noah that Bob's there, too. "Well, no offense," Noah starts, but is quickly cut off by the sound of a body hitting the stone wall as Bob grabs a guard and tosses him into it. Noah pronounces Bob a "bad mother." "I was a Librarian too, you know," Bob says.
Edward grabs the spear from the shaft of light, and my, that sure is an ornate spear considering that it was held by some peon Roman guard two thousand years ago. I mean, it's got gold leaf overlays and stuff. Worth six payments of $59.95 from the Franklin Mint, minimum. And it's held up so well over the years, too, even though the shaft is made of wood that really should have disintegrated by now. "I feel the power!" Kyle overacts. Then he demonstrates the awesome power of the spear by killing Vin with it. No, he does not kill Nicole, although I don't see any reason for him to keep her alive. And no, he does not kill Vin with his new mind powers, which would be special, but by stabbing him with the spear, which anyone can do with any spear, really. Anyway, we see Vin's soul or whatever go flying out of his body and into Edward's, and then Edward shoves Vin into the shaft of lift and he disintegrates. Kelly watches, all like "Awesome!" when, if I was employed by Edward, I'd probably be thinking something along the lines of "my résumé will need updating" right about now. Edward turns toward Nicole and points his spear at her. By her facial expression, she seems okay with this. "We can be one!" Edward says. Great, he'll have the power to roll his eyes. That's worth it.
Suddenly, Noah tackles him. Nicole uses the diversion to knee Kelly in the chest, and Noah and Nicole take off. Of course, they run right into the armed guards in front of the pyramid. Edward and Kelly follow, and Edward orders his guards to kill Noah and Nicole. Then he and Kelly go back in the pyramid. Noah runs behind Nicole and releases her handcuffs using his knowledge of Houdini. They prepare to fight, and then Bob Newhart just runs right in the middle of them and says, "We have to get the spear back to The Library," like, no shit, Bob. That's what this entire movie has been about. While Noah and Nicole look on, Bob kicks his first attacker in the crotch, then ducks as two more people jump at him so that they hit each other, and then Bob strangles them both at the same time and earns this movie an A+ from me. Bob turns back and tells Noah to get the spear away from Edward before he becomes too powerful, while Bob and Nicole take down these Brotherhood people. Noah runs off while Bob puts various attackers in strangleholds and then elbows them. Wow, that was glorious.
