How It All Goes Down
- Silas's pretending to pray while looking for the objects his victims told him would hide the location of the keystone.
- There's a brass strip running along the floor that delineates the Rose Line, a marker that shows the longitudinal axis that used to be considered the prime meridian (or zero longitude: now it resides in Greenwich, England).
- The line ends at the peak of an Egyptian obelisk.
- The Teacher told Silas that it laid beneath the Sign of the Rose, so he must be in the right place.
- Meanwhile, Aringarosa's plane lands in Rome, and he's psyched to finally be on the offensive side of the battle.
- It seems that Divine Intervention has given him the solution to the problem plaguing the Faith, and now everything's going to be a-okay.
