01x13 - The Quest of the Red Skull

Post by bunniefuu »

Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends!

Iceman and Firestar.

Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends!

Heil Hitler.

Nefn, Dummkopfi

American Indian design. Fool.

There he is.

This is the music

my generation grew up with.

The music of the w*r years.

Yeah, the Revolutionary w*r.

You're not funny, Flash.

Professor Welles means World w*r ll,

in the 1940s.

- It was in all the papers.

- I must have missed it.

I think I'll try my hand at dancing

to these weird tunes with your date.

Come on, Mona.

You're wrong about Mr Thompson

not being funny, Peter.

You should have seen

his last test paper.

I read it and laughed

and laughed and laughed.

Now.

- Pillows.

- But that means

Correct. I was expecting you.

Gas!

The back yard.

The Red Skull!

Alex, Hilly,

stay here and search until you find it.

I will take Professor Hiawatha Smith

to headquarters for questioning.

Thanks, Professor Welles.

It was a great class party.

If you don't pass your finals,

you'll get to enjoy it again next year,

Parker.

You're a wonderful host. Good night.

Which is more than I can say for you,

Peter.

Letting Flash Thompson

yank me away like that.

I wasn't about to have a fight

in a professor's house.

Besides, most girls like him.

In case you haven't noticed,

I'm not like most girls.

My spider sense. Something's wrong

in Professor Smith's house.

How you doing, Mona?

Good night, Parker.

Mona, I know

you'll never forgive me for this.

Flash, big fella, I'd like you

to take Mona home for me.

Safely.

Why, sure, Parker.

Come on, Mona.

Sometimes being a superhero

is really the pits.

This had better be

top-priority important.

We've looked everywhere.

The Scorpio Engraving is not here.

Do you want to go back

and tell that to the Red Skull?

The Red Skull.

That's top priority alright.

That's it. The Scorpio Engraving.

The Scorpio Engrav

The Scorpio Engraving.

The key

to the greatest treasure on earth.

When World w*r II ended,

all the gold, jewels, money and

art treasures captured by the n*zi army

were hidden in a secret tomb,

along with incredible new experimental

super-weapons for warfare.

g*ns. Gases. Rockets.

With this unbelievable fortune

and the weapons,

I, the Red Skull,

will be the next Hitler.

I will lead an army against all mankind.

I will start World w*r III.

And this time we will win.

Heil Skull.

The Scorpio Engraving

will lead me to the treasures.

Thank you, Hiawatha Smith,

and farewell.

Great python, hear the Indian gods

who respect all life.

Crush the metal bar which holds me.

Crush it. Great python, crush it.

Glad we speak the same language.

Peter should have been back

from the party long ago.

It's nothing to worry about.

He's with Mona.

- Mona Osborn?

- The one I date.

Let's take Ms Lion for a walk.

Yeah. Near Professor Welles' house.

Gotta get some air and clear my head.

- Look.

- It's Spidey.

I'm glad to see you.

But what brought you out here?

My special Iceman sense

told me there was trouble.

Your what? You don't have any special

Iceman sense that warns you of danger.

It was worth a try. There's something

strange going on back there right now.

- You're Hiawatha Smith.

- And you're from the Red Skull.

No, Professor.

It was his creeps who gassed me.

We're friends, Professor Smith.

I'm Iceman. She's Firestar. And he's

I'm the Spider-Man

who's stuck in his own web.

Come on inside. I can use you.

The whole world can use you.

Adolf Hitler.

The most evil man who ever lived.

The man who started World w*r II.

The man the Red Skull wants to be.

World w*r ll began in 1939

and ended in 1945.

Almost every nation fought

on land, on the sea and in the air

because Hitler wanted to force

his so-called master race on the world.

His people would dominate and destroy

everyone who opposed him.

He'd tell you what books you could read,

what movies you could see,

even what thoughts you could think.

We've fought every super-villain

you can name,

but this one

has to be the most evil of all.

My father was a hero of World w*r II

and the great chief

of the Indian nations.

He bestowed on me the mystical

knowledge of all Indian lore

since the beginning of time.

I am to use that force to fight evil.

During the w*r my father

discovered the Scorpio Engraving

and entrusted it to me. Here it is.

But I thought the Skull

had it now because of me.

He has the copy. This is the original.

Tonight, for the first time,

I know what it means.

It is a map to the hidden n*zi treasure.

And all the lines intersect

in the middle

of the unexplored Marabunta jungle.

But won't Smith figure that out too now?

Of course. But we have a head start.

And I'll make sure we won't lose.

All the lines intersect here,

at the Marabunta jungle.

The four of us can stop the Red Skull.

We can prevent World w*r Ill.

- Can't see anything but trees.

- Me neither.

There he goes again. Spidey of the Apes.

If he says, "Me Spider-Man,

you Hot Stuff" one more time,

I'm gonna melt his web.

Me Spidey, You - --

You boring.

Any luck?

No, not a thing. Just that vulture.

It keeps on circling.

My robot TV bird keeps them in sight

every minute.

- What is our progress?

- Excellent, Herr Skull.

We should be at the intersection

in several hours.

They will never even know we are here.

Who but I would dream

of tunnelling under the jungle?

We will reach the hidden treasure

and be away with it

before anyone knows we were here.

Always room for one more, I guess.

Something's wrong with you, bird.

ATV robot.

The Skull's watching everything we do.

But where is he? We haven't seen

Oh, no. Vampire bats!

No. Get away. No!

Make a cave. They'll head right for it.

Herd them in here.

Those vampire bats

live in underground caves.

Something had to drive them out.

The Skull. He's tunnelling underground.

At precisely 4:37 the sun will indicate

the hidden location of the tomb.

The small outcropping of rock

casts the shadow of the swastika.

There. At the very centre. There.

The entrance to the secret tomb.

There the treasure awaits.

We have won.

But first you two must lay a trap

for Smith and the others.

They have been here.

The earthworms are restless.

- He can hear the worms'?

- Don't look at me.

I'm the guy who gave my date away

to Flash Thompson. What do I know?

- True.

- This way. Hurry.

They are almost there.

When one of them trips the wire,

the red light goes on.

- Wait.

- Now.

We cancelled each other out.

Did I find the right switch?

The Skull's tunnel must lead directly

to the giant swastika you told us about.

So says the Scorpio Engraving.

The entrance to the treasure tomb

is here, at the intersection.

I'll go ahead and see what I can find.

Nothing in the tunnel.

Nothing out here.

That's the swastika, alright,

but it sure isn't big.

I'll bet with the sun behind it

like that it would cast a huge shadow,

right over there.

We can't wait till tomorrow to find out,

so

One bright sun coming up.

There it is.

Got to mark it before I lose it.

There. The guys

ought to be able to find it now.

But I'm going in first.

Totally incredible!

What the? Freezing gas.

I told you never to underestimate

your opponent.

If she survived the trap,

the others have.

Put her in the freezing support capsule

and then we open the tomb and

begin to change the face of the world.

There is it.

I want you to see it, Firestar.

I want my enemies to despair

in the moment of my triumph.

I'll open the door for you, Herr Skull.

Imbecile.

Look. The legacy of Adolf Hitler.

Mine.

I rechecked the tunnel.

She's not in there.

She continued on

to try to find the swastika.

- Hope she left a trail we can follow.

- You think that's easy enough?

That's our Firestar.

- No sign of her. Or anyone.

- I hope we're not too late.

That door up ahead has got to be it.

Well, what are we waiting for?

Look out.

- Did you say something?

- Yeah. I said let's move it.

"The world and Firestar are mine."

He's got her.

Quick. Here. Help me move this.

Look.

- Come on.

- I guess it's the only way.

Jettison truck shell

and stand by to dive.

- Oh, no.

- A Spidey tracer.

I hooked a Spidey tracer on the sub,

Professor Smith.

- We'll be able to follow it anywhere.

- Good.

But I'll bet we all know

exactly where it's headed.

Skull Island.

Fire!

Not again.

Two down, one to go.

Cold enough for you?

Wouldn't want you warming up

and spoiling my party.

The other guests are arriving.

No matter what happens to us,

the world will stop you.

You think so? In a few hours

the world will welcome me.

- Welcome you?

- Yes.

These rockets you're strapped to

will start World w*r Ill.

The US will assume

another country bombed them,

and they in turn

will b*mb that other country.

And in a matter of hours the

superpowers will destroy one another

and the only leader powerful enough

and rich enough to take over the world

will be me.

And don't think Professor Hiawatha Smith

can save you.

He'd have to swim the moat

and the moat is stocked

with the most deadly fish known to man.

Piranha.

- Piranha.

- I'm coming after you, Skull.

You'll never get away

with your crazy plans.

He dived in.

Now listen to the end of Hiawatha Smith.

I call on this ancient Indian potion

from the gods of all the waters

to help me defeat this enemy.

Now we launch the rockets.

- Where am I?

- You don't want to know.

I'm strapped in with heat.

I can't move a muscle.

Me neither. He's got me cold.

Well, why don't I warm you up a little?

That did it.

That won't save the others.

You've got a new target, guys.

Skull Island.

I feel like a rat

deserting a sinking ship.

So? At least we'll be live rats.

You are going to pick up passengers,

aren't you?

Sure.

Stay right here.

I'll be back in a minute.

I ought to leave you here, but

The treasure! The treasure!

He had his chance.

The government reported

no trace of the Skull,

but somehow he always comes back.

If he does, you can count on us

to help you any time.

- Any place.

- Anywhere.

The same for me. I'd better hurry.

I have a class in a few minutes.

So do

See you, Professor.

That was close, Frosty.

Petey, babe. Look who's coming.

- Oh, no. It's Mona.

- And Flash Thompson.

Hi, Mona. Flash.

That Parker's a creep.

Yes, darling,

but he brought us together,

so that makes him a wonderful creep.
