Quick recap

1969. Indy is about to retire from a New York college, separated from Marion since their son's death. His goddaughter Helena Shaw turns up chasing Archimedes' Dial, which her father, Basil, never let go of. The Nazi-turned-NASA scientist Jürgen Voller wants the Dial too. The hunt takes Indy from New York to Tangier, Greece and Sicily, with young Teddy in tow. The Dial reveals fissures in time, and Voller plans to go back to 1939. The trip goes wrong, and Indy has to decide where he wants to spend the rest of his life.
