CIGARS OF THE PHARAOH - Part 1

Some vacation, huh Snowy?

A stopover in Egypt tomorrow,

then next stop, Bombay, then on to Hong Kong.

Aah... This is great.

I say! Save that paper!

Help somebody!

Save that paper!

I'll get it!

That's it...

Excuse me! Comin' through...

Snowy!

Good try, my boy!

Sorry, we couldn't save your paper, sir.

Oh, that's alright.

It was just a travel brochure.

What!

Now if it had been my priceless papyrus,

that would be another matter.

Allow me to introduce myself:

I am Doctor Sarcophagus.

Hi, I'm Tintin, reporter.

Well, Tintin the reporter,

the winds of fate have just blown

the story of a lifetime your way.

- Oh...? - I, Sophocles Sarcophagus,

the greatest archaeologist of all time,

am about to unearth the lost tomb

of Pharaoh Kih-Oskh.

No kidding.

No kidding!

My dear boy, I never "kid".

Especially when discussing

the lost tomb

of the Pharaoh.

Lesser archaeologists have dared its curse

but none have returned.

None?

It could make quite a story for you.

Okay! Count me in!

Bravo!

We'll meet in Cairo at ten tomorrow.

Then on to the tomb...

Is this the symbol for the Pharaoh's tomb?

We'll find out tomorrow.

And until then,

good day!

You near-sighted klutz! Watch where you're going!

It was just an accident, Sir.

Why, you nosey little punk! This is a day you'll regret.

Nobody talks to R.J. Rastapopoulos that way!

Nobody!

Now where have I seen him before?

Ah yes!

R.J. Rastapopoulos,

The famous movie producer!

Beware! Doctor Sarcophagus met

a young troublemaker.

Dispose of him before we reach Cairo!

Just think, Thompson! We've flown all this way

to arrest our friend.

There are no friends in our line of work, Thomson.

So true, Thomson, so true!

Come in.

Don't make a move!

Thompson and Thomson! What are you guys doing here?

Don't play innocent with us!

What is this? A joke?

Does this look like a joke to you?

Opium?

He admits it!

I don't admit anything!

Exercising your right

to remain silent, are you?

Very well, we're detaining you

until the ship docks at port.

Come along!

But what about my plans?

This is supposed to be my vacation.

Some vacation!

The story of a lifetime comes along

and here I am framed as a drug smuggler.

I wonder...

Heading ashore by any chance?

Tintin gave the slip to the police

and will probably meet

Sarcophagus in Cairo.

You have your orders. Don't fail me!

Aren't you worried about the Pharaoh's curse, Doctor?

My dear boy! I am not one of those

amateur archaeologists stumbling about in the desert...

Doctor! Look!

I've found it!

Fame at last!

From this day forward, the name

Sophocles Sarcophagus

will live in the archives of archaeology forever!

What is it, Snowy?

A cigar?

Isn't that the Pharaoh's emblem?

Doctor! Look at this!

Doctor?

Doctor?

The Pharaoh's emblem!

Doctor?

Doctor...!

Aha! A secret entrance! He must have gone inside...

Doctor Sarcophagus...!

Doctor!

Sealed!

Believe in curses, Snowy?

Me neither! Let's go!

That's his umbrella...

and his coat.

Doctor!

More cigars!

The Pharaoh's curse!

These must be the missing archaeologists!

Doctor Sarcophagus!

Oh no! No way!

Let's get out of here, Snowy!

No!

What's that?

Gas!

Snowy!

Leave me alone!

Move it! Move it!

Coast guard!

Prepare for boarding!

A raid!

Dump the coffins! Fast!

All hands on deck!

Snowy,

you're safe!

Doctor Sarcophagus!

It's a fine morning!

What? Shout louder!

I can't hear you over the wind.

What's that? I can't hear a word. It's the wind.

It's hopeless.

He's getting further and further away.

Good thing we dumped the evidence or they would have nabbed us.

Now if we can only find it again!

Message from the boss.

Came while the coast guard was aboard.

"Shipment contains prisoners to be taken to rendez-vous 3.

Guard strictly, pending further orders. "

What?

Captain! Look!

Get him aboard!

It's getting really rough, Snowy...

No...!

Oh, my head!

Ah! There you are, my dear sir!

Huh?

Can I interest you in some of the finest merchandise

you've ever laid eyes on?

But... but I... I don't...

Fear not, sir.

I'm sure my prices will astonish you.

Prices?

Just let me show you, sir...

Absolutely no obligation.

Beautiful! Beautiful!

Look how it matches your eyes, sir!

Quite,

quite perfect!

What about the sword?

Real Toledo steel! An alarm clock.

Toothbrush.

Everything a bargain!

What's going on, Snowy?

Right, lads!

Break it up! Back to work!

Perhaps some other time, dear sir.

My passenger, Mr. Pigaro from Lisbon.

Oh so... how are you feeling today, young Sinbad?

I've felt better, Captain.

You're lucky to be alive.

If my men hadn't spotted you...

Doctor Sarcophagus!

Who?

Did you pick up anyone else last night, Captain?

Just you and the dog.

I must get ashore, fast! My friend is in serious danger.

Goodbye! Good luck!

Goodbye, Captain,

and thank you!

You sure I couldn't interest you in something else, young man?

Another canteen perhaps?

No thanks. I'm sure I'll be fine.

Goodbye!

Goodbye...!

We must find a town, Snowy.

Wow...! I didn't expect one so soon.

The place is deserted.

O- oh...! there's somebody here and they're in trouble.

It's okay, miss,

you're safe now.

Cut!

Cut! Cut! Idiot! Imbecile!

O- oh...! You wrecked the whole scene!

Nitwit!

I'm sorry. I didn't know.

What is this? A coffee break?

Why aren't you shooting?

It's all his fault, sir.

Mr. Rastapopoulos!

You!

I'm really very sorry.

That's alright.

No harm done.

So... what are you doing in the middle of the desert?

It's a long story, sir.

Good! My favorite kind.

Well, what are you waiting for?

Get back to work!

Now you'll have to tell me all about it.

I'd be careful if I were you.

It sounds like there might be something to this curse.

Perhaps.

Well, good luck, young man!

And take care in the desert.

Thanks, sir. Goodbye!

Tintin is heading towards Cairo.

See that he doesn't make it.

You're sure that anonymous tip said

Tintin was disguised as an Arab?

Positive.

That's him alright!

Come peacefully!

Or we'll resort to violence.

Run, Thomson, run!

To be precise,

I'm running!

Feels like we've been walking forever, Snowy

Want some, Snowy?

We have to go easy on it.

Get down!

Someone still wants us out of the way, Snowy.

And I don't really want to find out who.

Let's go!

Oh no!

Our water!

Gotta... keep... moving.

Water!

You!

Why are you not in uniform?

The raiders are set to attack.

Attack?

Have you not heard?

War has been declared! Consider yourself drafted.

Move it!

Another fine mess I've gotten myself into.

Huh?

The cigars!

Where there's smoke, there's...

Bingo!

Hollow?

"Send two hundred cases of cigars to Gaipajama, India,

"in view of next

opium harvest!"

Guards!

Seize this spy!

Some vacation!

I know I wanted to get away

from it all

but a firing squad at dawn!

Ouch!

Psst... psst... Over here!

A file!

Wait!

Who are you?

Ssst... Hurry!

Come on, Snowy!

It's safe to talk now.

I want to thank you...

Thought you'd given us the slip, did you?

Shameless drug smuggler!

Thompson and Thomson!

Look! I'm not the smuggler.

The Colonel is. At least, he's involved.

I was framed, detectives.

They kidnapped me and Doctor Sarcophagus.

Kidnapped? Why?

We found a shipment of hollow cigars

that they use to smuggle drugs.

There's a shipment on its way to India right now!

Oh, that's not good.

To be precise, that's...

There he goes!

Get him!

He's on the roof!

Quickly!

Now is our chance, Snowy.

You again?

Where is your uniform?

Sorry, sir, but...

I quit.

Now... Let's get out of here!

There he is!

Ready!

Aim!

Fire!

A plane!

But how do I get past the guard?

Help! Help!

Mad dog! Mad dog!

Help!

Stop the plane!

I hope Thomson and Thomson made it.

We'll need all the help we can get if we're going

to save Dr. Sarcophagus from those smugglers.

Are you ready for it, Snowy?

Look out, India!

Here we come!

Fast Forward to Part 2 for the conclusion...

Cigars of the Pharaoh - Part 2

There it is, Snowy. The coast of India.

Oh no... it's broken!

We're out of gas!

Okay... okay

I'm coming.

Let's find the road to Gaipajama, Snowy.

The Pharaoh's emblem!

It's wet.

Whoever did this is still around.

Doctor Sarcophagus?

I'm afraid you've made a mistake, young man.

My name isn't Sarcophagus.

I'm Pharaoh Rameses the second!

Ruler of all the Nile!

He's completely mad!

Now... what have you done with your pants?

Eeouwuhh...! That hurt.

Poison!

Oh! That's pretty!

Here...! kitty, kitty, kitty!

We'd better get him to a doctor, before he hurts himself...

All around the horrible woods,

the Pharaoh chased the reporter,

The reporter thought there was a li'l fun and asked for a glass of water...

Why, hello there!

- Sorry to bother you... - Tutankhamen!

Ooh...! Oh no!

Sorry to bother you, sir,

but my friend has been hit with a poison dart.

I need to get him to a hospital.

Ah, yes, I see.

Well actually, you're in luck.

One of my guests is a man of medicine. Oh... Doctor Finney!

Yes?

Ra! Ra! Ra!

It seems we've got a spot of bother, Doctor.

I think he's been poisoned, sir.

Bring him upstairs. I'll examine him there.

Ah... Rameses the second?

Ra would like a word with you.

Oh goody!

Mr. And Mrs. Snowball?

Allow me to introduce...

Tintin. Pleased to meet you.

Charmed.

Make yourself comfortable, Tintin.

The doctor will be down shortly.

So tell us, Major, what's the story behind this dagger?

Aah... my Hindu kukri.

It was a present from a local fakir.

He says it has magical properties.

How fascinating!

Yes, quite.

The fakir claims it will point

to anyone whose life is in danger.

Dr. Finney, is my friend going to be alright, what did you find?

The dart was tipped with Rajaijah juice,

the poison of madness.

There's an asylum a few miles up the road.

You must take him there immediately.

I have written a letter

to the Director with all the details...

Thank you, sir.

Doctor Sarcophagus is gone!

Aaaa!

My wife!

Darling! Speak to me!

Someone came in through the window.

That lunatic threatened me with a knife.

My kukri dagger! It'is gone!

I'm very sorry about this everyone.

Come on, Snowy, let's go!

Can you follow his trail

in the rain, Snowy?

Must kill reporter!

The professor's hat! He's around here somewhere.

Oh! Phooey!

Huh...!

Must kill reporter!

Must kill reporter...

Uuh... my dagger!

I want my dagger!

Sorry, Rameses, but Pharaohs shouldn't try to kill their friends.

The eyes made me do it!

What eyes?

Th.. those eyes!

Fear not, young man.

Who are you?

I am the power-rrrr.

What...

do... you...

Just watch my eyes...

My eyes!

My eyes!

Thanks, Snowy.

He's gone!

So...

Doctor Finney wanted you to hand this letter to me?

He told me you'd take care of everything.

I see.

Let me show you where we'll be keeping your friend.

Do you think you'll be able to cure him?

Anything is possible.

A padded cell?

- Is he really that bad? - Not him...

You!

"You should commit the one who hands over this letter.

"He will claim

it is his friend who is insane.

Don't believe him. "

You're making a mistake!

Don't worry,

your friend will be looked after.

We thank you.

Goodbye! Happy birthday!

No...!

Breakfast.

Eat your cereal and your cup cakes for lunch.

I don't like cup cakes!

Come back here!

Inmate escaping!

Stop him!

Stop him!

Stop him!

Look out! There's an inmate escaping!

Stop him!

Not me, you fool!

Jump, Snowy! I'll catch you.

Wow...!

Well, well! We meet again.

Thought you'd given us the slip, did you!

- I got him! - Me too!

- Goodness... ... gracious!

Who... who are you?

You tell of a complicated route to Gaipajama, my friend.

But now you are here, what next?

Snowy!

Ah, yes... I've instructed my guards to make inquiries.

We should hear something soon.

- I hope so. - Don't worry.

They'll find him.

It's time for your afternoon studies, my son.

What is it?

That music! Last time I heard it

my father went mad.

Before that, it was my brother.

Hmm... Does your family fight the opium trade, Maharajah?

Yes... how did you know? Smugglers took over my people's poppy farms.

My family tried to force them out.

But then, they went mad.

Don't make a move!

You're under arrest!

In the name of the law, to be precise.

Careful...

Huh?

He's gone!

Aha! A secret doorway!

You're late.

Take your seat, brother.

Our meeting is now in session.

First, I extend greetings from the boss.

Next, I'm happy to inform you

that the Maharajah

is no longer a concern.

Headquarters!

What!

Our hideout in Cairo has been raided.

Only our boss escaped.

Yes.

I see.

Brothers, we have a spy in our midst.

Since the rules prevent us from revealing our identities,

you will come to me one by one into the next room,

and tell me the password from last week's meeting.

First one!

Last one!

Finished!

Good thing I was called first.

Well this is quite the party!

The fakir, Colonel Faud,

Mr. And Mrs. Snowball,

Dr. Finney.

Well, that certainly explains the letter.

The Maharajah's secretary.

And last,

but I'll bet not least...

Allan!

The fakir!

Freeze!

Right! Nobody move!

My friend, I must thank you. If not for that dummy

you placed in my bed, I would be completely mad by now.

Glad to be of service.

Your Highness!

Your son has been kidnapped.

Two men... they made off with him

in an automobile.

Come on, Snowy!

There they are!

Master, we're being followed.

No! They crashed!

Or did they?

Look out!

Missed! Get rid of him!

I'll make a break with the kid!

You!

No!

No, Snowy! Don't look at him!

I surrender.

What?

I surrender...

Well,

fine.

Surrender...

Surrender...

No...

No...

You are in my

power...

He's got the Maharajah's son.

Stop! Diablo!

Can I ever be rid of

that nosy reporter!

Yes...

just a little closer...

This time I can't miss!

No...!

There you are! Don't worry!

I'll have you back to your father in no time.

Another shipment of opium was found.

The drug ring is indeed smashed.

Great! Everything's back to normal then.

Behold!

Behold your pharaoh

Rameses the second! Behold!

Well, almost everything.

The End.
