Anyway...

I was at nyu conducting A slide presentation

Of my recent dig In the catskills

When I was informed that a Young man vandalized my office

And made off with some Very valuable specimens.

That was me.

Desecrator, violator Of sacred soil.

You people got no Respect for nothing!

Have we met?

I'm james long, the Son of edgar long,

A brother to the Wolf and the eagle,

Grandson of totadaho,

Great-great-grandson of Adriocton and odisarundi,

All of whom cry Out to me in anguish

From their despoiled graves.

You're very upset.

Come on.

Uh, doc, do you want to Step over here with me?

I need some information.

Certainly, certainly.

We'll continue this.

I've just been glancing Through the pages

Of these juvenile offenders.

You sign the complaint yet?

Breaks your heart, doesn't it,

To see all these bright,

Shiny faces turn sour?

So are those the Bones over there?

Yeah.

I certainly hope that He hasn't damaged them.

They're worth an arm and a leg.

That's funny.

Look, if you want to go over

And check them for Fractures, go ahead.

Fractures?

Uh, yeah, yeah. Thank you.

Hey, now what are you doing?

Just looking.

Leave them alone, will You? Show some respect.

Dietrich: you want To lighten up?

What's going on here?

Not a hell of a lot.

Captain miller, this is Dr. Traven from the museum.

Ah. Doctor.

Hey, you got no Right digging that...

Just take it easy, mr. Long.

It's all right, captain.

I genuinely appreciate Mr. Long's feelings.

I wish he understood how Important our work can be.

Yeah, well, if It's so important,

Why don't you dig Up your own family?

Somebody undoubtedly Will someday.

Mr. Long... We in archeology

Don't go around digging Into sacred burial mounds

Out of a rude curiosity.

We're seeking keys to Understanding lost societies,

Lost civilizations.

Well, if you're so Interested in indians,

Why don't you try talking To a couple live ones?

I'm not an anthropologist.

Uh, doc, you want to Have a seat over here

And finish reading Your complaint?

Oh, thank you, thank you.

Right here.

You guys might be surprised If you dug in our brains

Instead of our bones.

All right, mr. Long.

And the law, for example.

Who do you think inspired The articles of confederation

And the constitution... Washington?

Jefferson? Forget it.

It was the iroquois, man.

Really?

Yeah, it's true.

A self-government by Chosen representatives

Functioning in an Effective common forum

Is from an indian concept.

Yeah?

That's fascinating.

Of course, things Don't always work out.

And how about food?

No, thank you.

I would appreciate a cup of tea.

Uh, I'm afraid we Don't have any water.

Where do you think You got tomatoes,

Potatoes, and Squash... And popcorn?

Okay, mr. Long!

If it wasn't for us, you Wouldn't be smoking.

Thank you, mr. Long.

Now, dr. Traven, About this complaint.

Yes.

I mean, obviously You have the power

To put mr. Long in jail.

Jails... That was Your contribution.

Okay, you made your point!

But, I mean, considering The circumstances...

I mean, you got your Bones back, you know?

Captain, I, uh...

I want to do the right thing.

Mr. Long?

Doctor...

Water in liquid form Exists only on this planet.

And man is 60% water.

Without water, there's no life.

Don't you understand?

We're destroying Our water supply.

You want to go to jail?

Of course. People Have to be reminded.

I understand.

I will press Charges against you.

Thank you.

You're very welcome.

Put him away, captain.

Hey, barney, look what I found.

What is this?

It's a rifle. I found It behind the wall.

This thing must be 50 years old.

I'd say about 100.

It looks like a Springfield breechloader,

Circa 1882 or so.

Really?

Can I have it?

Uh... Well, it's up to Sergeant wojciehowicz.

I'd like to do a Little research on it.

Who are you?

I'm with the museum. I Promise I'll bring it back.

Oh. Yeah, I guess so.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Easy, easy.

All work and no play.

Goodbye, captain.

Dr. Traven.

Uh, mr. Long,

I look forward to Seeing you at the trial.

Right. Take care of yourself.

I'll do my best.

For you, doc.

Thank you.

What a nice guy.

Gilbert?

What do you want?

They want me to Sign a complaint.

So?

I just think you need to Redirect your energies

To something more Constructive, more positive...

Even fun.

Like what?

You ever been to The woods, gilbert?

Maybe.

Taking a dive in a cold stream,

Drying ourselves around The morning campfire

While the bacon and Eggs are crackling

In an old iron skillet.

And traumatic childhood...
