The Shazam Isis Hour, Part 2, Shazam!

Chosen from among all others by the immortal elders Solomon, Hercules,

Atlas, Zeus, Achilles, Mercury, Billy Batson and his mentor travel the

highways and byways of the land on a never-ending mission.

to right wrongs, to develop understanding, and to seek justice for

all. In time of dire need, young Billy has been granted the power by the

immortals to summon awesome forces at the utterance of a single word.

A

word

which transforms him in a flash into the mightiest of mortal beings.

Captain Marvel!

You know, we're late and we're lost. I know.

You're some navigator, Billy.

I think you put us over the border into Mexico.

Mentor, you've got the map upside down.

He's blown a tire!

I'm really glad you came along.

I'm sure this truck was going over.

I'm glad to be of help, but I'd drive a little slower on those curves. Yeah, I

guess you're right about that.

You need any help with those? No, no, I'm fine now. Appreciate your help.

Thanks.

Can I give you a hand?

No, I can take care of it, thanks.

Uh, maybe you could help me then.

I'm looking for Desert City.

Sure. It's, uh, two roads up and you make a left turn. Who are you looking

for? Jack Michaels, an old friend.

You know him?

Michaels.

That Jewish family that just moved in here.

Yeah, I know him.

When I mention Jack Michael's name, he certainly throws up.

Well, maybe he doesn't like the border patrol.

No, no, no. I pray there's more than that. He doesn't like.

This is his succotide, and it's a symbol of the holiday that we're celebrating.

Tell me, why were you transferred out here?

Well, you must have heard about these big art robberies across the border.

Yeah, a little.

Well, there's been thousands of dollars' worth of artifacts stolen out of...

museums and churches.

And we have an idea they're being smuggled through here. So I'm here to

work with the Mexican authorities.

You haven't had any luck yet, hmm? No, nothing.

Yale is certainly a fine young man.

He certainly looks as if he's thriving out here in Desert City.

Well, he adjusted perfectly.

Until now.

Why? What's the matter?

He seems upset about this club he wants to join. I've never really seen him so

worried before.

Yale got the message yet? Look, Mr. Clyde, I've been thinking.

He's not so bad. Why can't he... We don't want any Jewish people like Yale

and the Overlanders. They're just... They're different from us. You know what

I mean?

Well, if you say so.

Keep up the pressure.

A little hint now and then should take care of it. Listen, Harry, be very

careful. I don't want you to hurt him or anything. I don't want any bad

publicity. You understand?

Just remember what I said, all right?

Okay.

Michael, sure are nice people.

That dinner.

What's the name of that holiday again?

It's called Sukkoth.

A kind of happy celebration, but... Uh-oh, sounds like the Elder.

Oh, Elder's fleet and strong and wise appear before my seeking eyes.

People must learn to understand, Billy.

Not to judge someone because he is different from you or worships

differently. Soon you will find someone who hasn't learned that lesson and who

must be stopped before it is too late.

I thought I told you to keep an eye peeled for Yale.

What are you doing anyway?

I'm just playing a little trick on him, that's all.

Taking a chain off.

You know, we've been riding him pretty hard. Yeah, I know, but Mr. Clyde

says... Well, this will just give him a long walk home.

Hey, here he comes now.

Darn, I'm only half finished.

Hi.

Harry, I've got to talk to you about something.

Yeah? Well, you seem to be all hot and bothered because I'm Jewish.

Is that going to get in the way of my joining the club?

Well, now that you mention it, maybe you ought to give it some more thought.

Why?

Because, you know, you'd be the only one of your people in the club.

Maybe it wouldn't work out so good.

Harry, you gotta at least give me a chance.

Well, the test is all set.

But think it over, kid.

I hate to see you make a mistake.

Nice country.

Yeah, sure is rugged. I need to get lost there.

Well, let's face it, Billy.

That's not an impossibility for the way I read maps.

What did that last sign say? Five miles to Mesa Junction?

Yeah. That's right.

Can you see that?

Stop the motor home, mister.

Captain Marvel.

Gosh.

How can I thank you enough?

I'm glad to help. You okay?

I'm fine.

Here's Mentor.

He'll take you home.

You're in good hands now.

I can't understand what happened.

I just had my bike fixed at Mr. Oliver's. And he said it was in perfect

condition.

What are you thinking, Yale?

Well... Tomorrow's my initiation test in the Overlanders.

Just got a bad feeling about him, mentor.

Very bad.

Okay.

All right, now. You know what you gotta do?

You gotta cross the desert, climb Snake Mountain.

Get back to club headquarters before the time runs out.

You all set?

Well, I'll do my best.

Hey, good luck, Yale. Take it easy.

Never mind.

Mr. Olvera said that the chain wouldn't break so clean and straight.

More like it was deliberately cut.

Well, what should we do?

Well, we've got to tell Jack Michaels.

But right now, I want to get out to that test site. I'm worried about Yale.

He just found out I put salt water in his canteen. That'll help.

Hey, who are they?

President Michael. I think I'd better leave.

You better get out there and make sure he doesn't pass that test.

You thirsty, Yale?

Why don't you just give up and look for some nice cold water?

You might as well.

You'll never make it. You are way off the track.

Don't try to stand on me.

Here, this will help.

I can't put any weight on it.

And I left my buggy way down at the bottom of the mountain.

You know you won't finish the test on time.

Well, you're more important right now.

You can say that after all I've done to you.

Like pouring salt water in your canteen.

I guess you know I cut your bike chain.

I wondered if you did that.

And you still want to help me?

You are really something, Al.

Sure. But we've got to get going.

Look, there's a house over there.

Maybe they've got a phone.

No, I don't want to go there. Why not?

That's Mr. Clyde's place.

Well, he's your friend, isn't he?

Come on, let's go.

He sprained his ankle, Mr. Clyde.

Pretty badly.

I can't help that.

I told you a hundred times not to be on my property except when we finish a

trip. Yeah, I know. It's swelling already.

Harry's got to see a doctor right away.

Please, Mr. Clyde.

Can't you drive us into town?

Yeah, maybe I can.

You just wait here. I'll get the truck.

Yale should have been back by now.

Well, maybe we better go find him.

You know, Harry, we didn't have to bring Yale along.

I got a good mind to dump him.

You can dump me, too.

Got yourself a new buddy, huh, kid?

Yeah, I think you just lost something off the back.

Give me that. These are the art treasures from Mexico.

Dad suspected that they've been smuggled across the border near here.

You used the club as a cover-up, right?

You're a pretty smart kid, aren't you? And you smuggled the stuff into town

under the club's camping gear.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

Mr. Clyde, we're not headed back toward town.

Where are you taking us?

Looks like you just have to wait and see, Harry.

Gail and Clyde's pickup, and they're headed away from town.

I can't climb any further.

I'm not gonna leave you

on in any direction people must learn

to understand billy soon you will find someone who hasn't learned that lesson

and who must be stopped before it is too late mentor i have a feeling i better go

on ahead be my dad

On your way now.

Thank you, Captain Marvel.

You seem to be around when I need you. Well, I'm glad I got here in time.

Yal saved me too, you know. He wouldn't leave me.

His ankle's pretty bad.

We've got to get him to a doctor.

Well, Mentor will be here in a moment. He'll take you back to town.

No, no, you don't.

He must have been using his place as a smuggling drop for planes across the

border. He brings the art treasures into town on trips with the overlanders.

I'll see that he's turned over to the authorities.

Well, it's certainly wonderful to have all of Yale's friends with us.

Mr. Michaels, it's nice to be here with you on this last day of... What's the

name of this holiday again?

Sukkot.

Sukkot. It's nice to be here, Mr. Michaels.

But what's this Sukkot all about, anyway?

Well, thankfulness for the harvest and all of God's blessings.

You see, the Jews wandered in the desert for 40 years.

So we build these huts to remember their hardships.

Yes, and there were overlanders in those days, too, Harry.

Just as there were bigots.

Yeah, well, we're going to start a new club now that Clyde's been arrested.

Yeah, sure will be a nice one without him, too.

Oh, much better.

Yeah, I think we're ready.

So what's that mean?

It's a kind of prayer before eating.

Oh.

Then it's the same as grace.

That's right, Harry.

It's exactly the same.
