Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a tale that starts in Indy’s early days during World War II. That’s when he first crosses paths with Archimedes’s Dial and Jürgen Voller, a Nazi who also wants to get his hands on that Dial. Indy and his colleague Basil Shaw are able to acquire half of the Dial and escape the Nazis, but the story isn’t over. Flash forward 25 years later, and the hunt for the Dial is just beginning.

A lot goes down in those 25 years. Indy is now a retiring professor at Hunter College and separated from Marion after their son, Mutt, died in the Vietnam War. Helena, Basil’s daughter and Indy’s goddaughter, shows up unexpectedly and steals the Dial so she can sell it. This sparks an epic and far-reaching journey for Indy and Helena, including fighting Nazis and traveling back in time — literally.
How Did Indiana Jones 5 End?
Voller is on a quest to get the Dial as well and follows Indy and Helena on their journey. It’s a cat-and-mouse game between Voller, Indy, and Helena. Indy and Helena manage to find the other half of the Dial in Archimedes’ tomb. Unfortunately, Voller and his goons have followed them. The second half of the Dial ends up in Voller’s hands after Indy is shot.
Voller wants to use the whole Dial to travel back in time and win World War II. He wants to fix where Hitler went wrong. An injured Indy is taken on the plane with Voller and his men, and Helena follows them. She finds her way onto the plane secretly.

Voller doesn’t think about continental drift when it comes to his time-traveling. The plane doesn’t travel back to 1939. They end up in 214 B.C. when the Romans are invading Sicily in the Siege of Syracuse. Voller and his right-hand man, Klaber, die in a plane crash. Archimedes stumbles upon Voller and Klaber. He takes Voller’s watch and the Dial.
