In the Spider's Web (2007) - full transcript

THESE ARE GIANT
BUTTRESS TREES HERE.

GREAT SHELTER.

IT REMINDS ME OF KAKADU IN NORTHERN AUSTRALIA, RIGHT?

THE COVER'S SO THICK ABOVE

THAT THE LIGHT COMES IN IN LITTLE BEAMS LIKE THAT.

- LET ME SEE THAT.
- GINA!

WHOO!

GINA!

GINA, GIVE IT BACK.

COME ON.
I DON'T GET A CHANCE

TO RECORD
THE MEMORIES?



HEY, JOHN, YOU READY
FOR YOUR CLOSE-UP?

WATCH IT
WITH THE CAMERA!

WHAT THE HELL
WAS THAT?

WHOA!

LET ME GET THIS.

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.

AM I RIGHT?

YOU SEE BEAUTY.

I SEE SPIDERS.

- OH, WHERE?
- EXACTLY. WHERE?

THAT'S WHAT BOTHERS ME.

CAN YOU GUYS
EVEN IMAGINE

- WHAT MADE THIS?
- YEAH, LET'S NOT.

I'VE NEVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE THIS.



APPARENTLY, THIS WHOLE AREA'S LOADED WITH ARACHNIDS,

BUT WOW!

OKAY, YOU ARE
THE GUIDE, RIGHT?

I MEAN,

- AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO, LIKE, KNOW THIS STUFF?
- GINA.

HEY, IF IT WEREN'T
FOR A FEW SURPRISES,

AND IF I KNEW EVERYTHING,
THEN WHAT WOULD BE THE POINT, YEAH?

OKAY, WHAT DO YOU SAY WE GET BACK TO WALKING OUT

- FROM UNDERNEATH ALL OF THIS?
- OH, THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

YEAH, IT IS
A GOOD IDEA.

IT'S GETTING LATE.
WE'D BETTER MOVE

SO THERE'S STILL ENOUGH
LIGHT TO MAKE CAMP.

OKAY,
LET'S SHOOT THE CROW.

OH WOW, LOOK AT
THOSE BIG BUTTERFLIES.

LOOK.

OH, THAT'S AWFUL.

I DON'T WANNA SEE THAT.

CAN WE DO SOMETHING?

I THINK IT'S
A LITTLE PAST THAT.

- OKAY, GINA?
- NO.

LOOK AT THIS.

BRIAN, WHAT EXACTLY
IS THIS?

IT'S A KIND OF
OFFERING, GERALDINE--

A SIGNPOST.

VILLAGERS
FROM KARNI MATA

LEAVE THESE
SPIDER SKINS

- FOR GOOD LUCK.
- COOL.

CREEPY.

- ARE WE GOING THERE?
- TREKKERS DON'T GO THERE.

TOO FAR OUT
OF THE WAY.

OH, THAT'S GOOD.

- HAVE YOU EVER BEEN?
- NO.

BUT I HEARD ABOUT IT.
APPARENTLY THERE'S AN AMERICAN DOCTOR

WHO LIVES AMONG THE VILLAGERS.
BEEN THERE FOR YEARS.

OH, REALLY?
IT'S KIND OF LIKE THAT--

THAT WOMAN DOCTOR...

YOU KNOW, SHE LIVED
AMONGST THE APES.

YEAH, KIND OF.

SINCE THIS IS
OUR LAST NIGHT,

I JUST WANTED TO SAY
IT'S BEEN A REAL PLEASURE

SHARING THIS EXPERIENCE WITH YOU ALL-- APART FROM GINA.

OH, COME ON.

VERY FUNNY, PHIL.

- WELL, YOU DO TEND TO COMPLAIN A LOT.
- I WAS ONLY JOKING.

WHAT DID YOU SAY?

I MEAN, YOU COMPLAIN. THAT'S, LIKE,
YOUR THING. IT'S, LIKE, EXPECTED.

RIGHT? GUYS?

WHY WOULD
YOU SAY THAT?

I DIDN'T MEAN IT
TO BE SO SERIOUS.

MAYBE ONE OF US
SHOULD SAY SOMETHING.

NO, MAN.
WITH THESE TWO?

WITH THEM GOING WAY BACK,
IT'S PROBABLY BEST NOT TO GET INVOLVED.

OH, RIGHT, TYPES THAT TALK
ABOUT SUBTEXT

RATHER THAN WHAT'S
ACTUALLY BEING SAID, YEAH.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT MEANS,
BUT OKAY, BRIAN, YEAH.

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS
TALKING ABOUT?

- WE'RE TALKING ABOUT YOU TWO.
- OH, BRIAN.

WELL, WE WERE.

- NOTHING BAD, BUT YOU TWO WERE ARGUING.
- BRIAN, JUST STOP.

OKAY, IT'S TIME WE ALL WENT TO BED.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

WAIT A MINUTE.
WE'RE JUST GETTING TO THE GOOD STUFF HERE.

AS A WOMAN, I CAN TELL YOU,
NO GOOD WILL COME OF THAT.

YEAH, FOR THEM MAYBE.

YOU COMING?

NO, I THINK I'M GONNA HANG OUT
HERE FOR A WHILE LONGER.

WHY?

MAYBE I'M NOT TIRED YET.

OH, RIGHT.

OH, GOD, A SPIDER.
SPIDER!

OH MY GOD.

OH, GOD, IT BIT ME.
OH, MY GOD, THAT BURNS.

- WHERE'S IT HURT, GERALDINE?
- SHOULDER. IT BIT ME ON MY SHOULDER.

- IS IT BAD? IT FEELS REALLY BAD.
- NO NO.

NO NO,
IT'S NOT BAD.

OKAY, HOOK ME UP
WITH A COLD PACK.

SOME PAINKILLER NOW.

GERALDINE, HOW'D YOU
KNOW THIS WAS A SPIDER?

I SAW IT CRAWL AWAY.
IT WENT OVER THERE.

WHAT DID IT LOOK LIKE?

IT WAS A SPIDER--

OH MY GOD,
IT BURNS.

WAS IT BROWN?
WAS IT BLACK, WHAT?

OH, GOD.

OKAY.

IT'S IMPORTANT THAT YOU REMEMBER WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE.

I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S DARK.

I DON'T KNOW.
I COULDN'T SEE IT.

- HOLD THIS FOR ME, WILL YOU?
- HERE.

OH, GOD.

- WHAT DO WE DO?
- OH, IT LOOKS BAD, MAN.

I MEAN,
IT'S REAL BAD TO GET THAT STRONG A REACTION STRAIGHTAWAY.

- OKAY, SO WHAT DO WE DO?
- IF SHE DOESN'T GET HELP SOON--

IT'S A FULL DAY'S HIKE INTO TOWN. BY THAT TIME, SHE COULD BE--

WHAT ABOUT THE VILLAGE?

THE DOCTOR?

YEAH, RIGHT, THAT'S WHAT'S
GONNA HAVE TO HAPPEN.

YOU SAID THAT WAS WAY
OUT OF THE WAY.

- IT'S STILL NEARER THAN TOWN.
- YOU SURE THEY'RE GONNA HAVE SOMETHING FOR THIS?

WELL, IF WHAT I'VE HEARD
ABOUT THAT DOCTOR IS TRUE.

WHAT ARE WE
WAITING FOR?

WE SHOULD LEAVE
RIGHT NOW.

- YOU SURE THIS IS THE WAY?
- SO SAYS THE MAP.

BUT HAVING NEVER BEEN,
I CAN'T SAY I'M CERTAIN.

I COULD HAVE REALLY USED A "YES" THERE, MAN.
LIE TO ME!

- HOW'S GERALDINE?
- NOT GOOD.

DID YOU GIVE HER
MORE PAINKILLER?

YEAH, LIKE HALF
THE BOTTLE.

WE-- WE NEED HELP.

SICK.

SPIDER.

SHOULD WE FOLLOW HIM?

YEAH, I THINK
THAT'S THE PLAN.

COME ON.

WHAT DO WE DO NOW?

BRING HER IN.

QUICK, LIKE SILVER.

- IS SHE GONNA BE ALL RIGHT?
- PATIENCE, LIKE JOB.

PATIENCE, LIKE JOB.

THAT ONE.
THAT ONE, YES.

WHAT IS THAT?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

SHH, SHH, SHH.

NO, HONESTLY, I DON'T WANT IT.
I DON'T WANT IT.

NO NO NO,
I DON'T NEED ANYTHING.

I KNOW IT'S PROBABLY
REALLY NICE...

NO, THANK YOU.
NO, THANK YOU.

NO, THANK YOU.
NO, THANK YOU.

I DON'T...
I DON'T WANT IT.

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

WHY DON'T YOU GO
OUTSIDE AND WAIT...

AND LET ME DO THIS?

COME ON, BRIAN.

- ALL RIGHT.
- HE'S A DOCTOR.

YES, LET IT GO.

TAKE IT EASY.

LET IT GO.

YES YES YES.

HOW'S GERALDINE?

OKAY,

WHEN THE GUY WITH THE SACK
ON HIS HEAD COMES,

THAT'S KIND OF MY CUE
TO LEAVE.

YES, SIR, FOR ONCE
THE GIRL SPEAKS SOME SENSE.

ANYONE? ANYONE KNOW
WHAT SHE'S SAYING?

IT'S A SPELL
OF PROTECTION.

TO THEM,
SPIDERS ARE GODS.

SHE'S--
SHE'S MAKING

AN ATTEMPT
TO GET THE GODS

WHICH TAKE CARE
OF THEM,

AND NOW YOU.

YEAH, WELL,
YOU CAN TELL THEM

I'VE HAD ENOUGH
OF SPIDERS, THANKS.

YOU'RE ALL LOOKING A LITTLE WORSE FOR THE WEAR.

GERALDINE,
HOW IS SHE?

NOT GOOD. UNFORTUNATELY,
YOUR FRIEND WAS BITTEN

BY A BOLIVIAN
BAJA SPIDER.

ATRAX ROBUSTUS.

EVEN THE SMALLEST DROP
OF VENOM, A PINHEAD,

IS LETHAL
TO SMALL ANIMALS.

FORTUNATELY, THOUGH,
THE SAME SPIDER

PRODUCES HIS OWN
ANTI-VENOM.

HUMANS CAN'T EVEN HOLD

TWO OPPOSING THOUGHTS
TOGETHER

WITHOUT GOING OFF
THE DEEP END.

BUT SPIDERS--
- FORGET ABOUT THE SPIDERS.

WHAT ABOUT THE HUMANS?

HOW MUCH IS LETHAL?

ONLY LESS THAN A DROP,
A LITTLE LESS.

AND GERALDINE?

SHE'S BETWEEN THIS WORLD
AND THE NEXT.

I'VE DONE EVERYTHING I CAN
WITH WHAT I'VE GOT.

AND NOW...

WE'RE IN THE PROVERBIAL
WAITING GAME.

- WHAT?
- WHAT?

SO WHAT NOW?

SHE NEEDS REAL HELP.

THE REST OF YOU SHOULD
FOLLOW THE TRAIL BACK,

HEAD TO TOWN. I'LL STAY HERE WITH GERALDINE.

- YOU'RE NOT STAYING HERE BY YOURSELF.
- IT'LL BE FINE.

- IT'LL BE FINE.
- YOU'RE ALL WELCOME TO STAY.

I ASSURE YOU

THAT NO ONE OUT THERE COULD DO
ANY MORE THAN I'VE ALREADY DONE.

REST, EAT.

I'LL TAKE CARE
OF YOUR FRIEND.

OKAY, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY
NO WAY THAT I'M STAYING HERE.

IS EVERYONE JUST FORGETTING
ABOUT THE GUY

WITH THE SACK
ON HIS HEAD?

OKAY, I'LL LEAD
THE GROUP BACK

AND WE'LL TRY
TO FIND SOME HELP--

A MEDICAL AIRLIFT,
AMBULANCE,

WHATEVER
THEY USE OUT HERE.

BRIAN, ARE YOU SURE
YOU WANT TO STAY?

YEAH, I SHOULD.

I'LL STAY TOO.

SOMEONE SHOULD STAY.

OKAY, STACEY, THERE IS
ABSOLUTELY NO WAY

- THAT YOU CAN STAY HERE ON YOUR--
- WE CAN'T JUST RUN OFF.

- YOU CANNOT STAY HERE--
- I'M STAYING.

AND WHAT DO
YOU CARE ANYWAY?

IT'LL GIVE YOU MORE TIME
TO SPEND WITH HIM.

- STACEY, DON'T GET ALL--
- JUST GO.

- YOU SURE YOU WANNA STAY HERE?
- DEFINITELY.

IT'LL BE AN ADVENTURE.

ANYONE ELSE FEEL LIKE
WE'RE BEING WATCHED?

HOW CREEPY.

COME ON,
LET'S JUST KEEP GOING.

ARE YOU SURE YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT?

IT'S A MAP, PHIL.

I THINK I CAN
HANDLE IT.

YOU KNOW,
AS UNTHRILLED AS I AM

TO BE OUT HERE,
I AM STILL MUCH MORE RELIEVED

TO BE AWAY
FROM THAT PLACE.

THAT DOCTOR
GAVE ME THE CREEPS.

I THOUGHT HE WAS
KIND OF COOL.

HE WAS LIKE THE COLONEL
AT THE END OF THAT MOVIE.

PHIL...

"LIVING WITH THE NATIVES."
EXCEPT HE'S NOT CRAZY.

YEAH, WELL,

YOU'D HAVE TO BE CRAZY
TO WANT TO LIVE OUT HERE.

AHH, HERE WE ARE.
EAT.

EAT, MANGE.

YOU KNOW, I HAD
AN ENERGY BAR EARLIER.

- I'M STILL GOOD ON THAT.
- I'M NOT HUNGRY. I'LL JUST...

DOCTOR, YOU SAID THAT

GERALDINE, IT WAS
A BOLIVIAN SPIDER?

A BAJA SPIDER. VERY VENOMOUS,
BUT STUNNING.

ALL SPIDERS ARE VENOMOUS. IT'S ALL ABOUT NECROSIS.

BUT YOU SAY BOLIVIAN,

AND I THINK OF SOMETHING LIKE SOUTH AMERICA

- OR SOMETHING NOT...
- WELL, WAIT A MINUTE. WAIT A MINUTE.

YOU'RE SAYING NOT HERE, RIGHT?
- YEAH.

WELL, THAT'S
AN ASTUTE OBSERVATION.

AND I'LL TRY TO OVERLOOK
YOUR THINLY-VEILED ATTEMPT

- TO DOUBT MY EXPERTISE.
- I DON'T THINK THAT'S WHAT SHE'S SAYING.

- I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT.
- YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE.

THIS SPOT ON THE PLANET IS UNLIKE ANY OTHER SPOT ON EARTH.

YOUR ASSUMPTION IS RIGHT.

YES, ALL SPIDERS
ARE REGIONAL,

EVERY CLASS OF THEM.
WE HAVE BAJA SPIDERS

AND BLACK WIDOWS
SPINNING WEBS TOGETHER

ALONG WITH BROWN RECLUSE THAT'S
ONLY FOUND IN NORTH AMERICA.

AND THEN THERE'S THE BUTTON SPIDER

FROM AFRICA.

FASCINATING, ISN'T IT?
YEAH.

YEAH.

OH MY GOD!

THAT'S A MADAGASCAR.

- IT'S POISONOUS?
- DEADLY.

THAT'S MY BROTHER.

HIS COWL IS MADE OUT
OF SPIDER'S SILK.

HE'S HERE TO REMIND ME

THAT I NEED TO CHECK IN
ON YOUR FRIEND.

THE KARNI MATA TEMPLE,
IS THAT NEAR?

OH, IT'S JUST A RUMOR
IN THE GUIDEBOOK, YEAH?

NO, IT'S HERE.
IT'S AS OLD AS THE MOUNTAINS.

MAYBE WE SHOULD
STAY HERE, YEAH?

THEY'RE GONNA
BE GONE FOR HOURS.

- WE MIGHT AS WELL TAKE A LOOK.
- IT'S NOT FAR.

- I CAN SEND A MAN TO SHOW YOU THE WAY.
- GREAT.

I WAGER IT'LL BE AN EXPERIENCE
YOU'LL NEVER FORGET.

WOW, LOOK AT THAT.

THE ROCKS,
THEY'RE SHAPED LIKE A SPIDER.

- HEAD, LEGS, EVERYTHING.
- FANGS, YEAH?

CAN WE GO IN...

- HEY, WHERE YOU GOING?
- INSIDE.

LET'S GO INSIDE.

MAYBE WE SHOULD
HEAD BACK NOW.

OH!

OH!

WOW!

OH MY GOD.

HEY.

- BOMBAY MIX.
- EW!

STACEY.

STACEY.

STACEY!

- YEAH?
- DON'T DO THAT.

JUST STAY WHERE
I CAN SEE YOU.

OKAY, DAD.

STACEY?

OH, MAN.

DON'T MOVE.
DON'T MOVE.

WHAT?

GET IT OFF.

BRIAN, COME ON.
HURRY UP, BRIAN.

GET IT OFF. OH!

- ONE MORE.
- ONE MORE?

- WHERE?
- SHH SHH SHH.

WHERE DID IT GO?

- WE CAN GO NOW?
- YEAH, LET'S GO.

- ISN'T THAT...
- TRAFFIC, YES!

YES, LET'S GO!

- DON'T REMEMBER THIS.
- WE DIDN'T GO THIS FAR IN.

THIS ISN'T RIGHT.

OKAY, SO WE TURN
THE CORNER AND...

LET'S JUST GO BACK.

OKAY, SO THIS IS WHERE YOU GOT THE SPIDER OFF OF ME, YEAH?

I THINK SO.

YEAH, I'M SURE IT IS.

THEN WHERE IS IT?
IT HAS TO BE HERE SOMEWHERE.

THERE IT IS.
THERE IT IS.

BRIAN!

BRIAN?

BRI?

BRIAN?

OKAY, NOT FUNNY!

I'LL BE OUTSIDE,
OKAY?

OKAY, BRIAN?

OH, GOD.

OH!
OH GOD!

STILL, I GOTTA SAY,
MAN,

IT'S BETTER THAN THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT BACK IN PHILLY.

- SMELLS BETTER TOO.
- NO, THAT'S JUST ME.

- YOU?
- YEAH.

- OH MY GOD. THAT IS NOT YOU.
- YOU ARE SO CHEEKY.

I SMELL BETTER
THAN THAT.

THIS REMINDS ME OF THE BUS
SERVICE IN SWAZILAND.

YOU KNOW SWAZILAND?
AFRICA, AFRICA.

IT'S A SMALL ISLAND
OFF MADAGASCAR.

OH, SORRY.

IT'S OKAY.

SHOULD I BE OFFENDED THAT YOU DIDN'T
LINGER WHEN YOU SLAMMED INTO ME?

OH, I DID.

IT JUST WENT QUICKLY.

KAKADU,
NORTHERN AUSTRALIA--

ETHIOPIA?

OKAY, HELLO.

HELLO.

OH, GOD,
WHERE AM I?

I'M SURE IT WAS
THIS WAY. OKAY.

OH...

BRIAN?

BRIAN?

BRIAN.

OH MY GOD!

END. NO FURTHER.
I GO NOWHERE.

HEY!

- PHIL, WHY DON'T YOU GO FIND THE HOTEL?
- WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

GERALDINE--
I'M GONNA FIND SOME HELP.

- OKAY, I'M GOING WITH.
- PHIL, YOU COOL WITH THAT?

YEAH, SHOULDN'T BE
TOO HARD TO FIND.

I'LL JUST LOOK FOR A BUILDING WITH AN ACTUAL DOOR.

- WHOA. WHOLE NEW KIND OF TRAFFIC.
- OH MY GOD.

FOUND IT.
THIS WAY.

THERE'S PROBABLY MORE PEOPLE ON THIS WALL

THAN THERE ARE
IN THE ACTUAL TOWN.

I KNOW.
CAN YOU IMAGINE?

DO ME A FAVOR,
IF I EVER GO MISSING,

PLEASE USE A PHOTO WHERE AT LEAST I LOOK GOOD.

- WHAT?
- NOTHING.

OH, COME ON, I WAS JOKING.

WE NEED HELP.

HELLO?

WE NEED... YOU...

YOUR HELP.

DO YOU NOT
SPEAK ENGLISH?

OH, YEAH, BUT I...

OH, SO DO YOU.

PRETTY WELL I'M TOLD.

SORRY.

I'M SERGEANT
DURANJAYA CHADHRI.

OH, HI.

HI.

SORRY ABOUT THIS OFFICE.
IT IS A BIT OF MESS, HUH?

- MORE MISSING PHOTOS?
- GINA.

HARD NOT TO NOTICE,
ISN'T IT?

- YEAH, KIND OF.
- SEE HERE?

MY PREDECESSOR.
MISSING FOR TWO MONTHS.

- SO YOU'VE ONLY BEEN HERE FOR...
- TWO WEEKS.

TWO VERY LONG WEEKS.

BUT THEY KEEP PUTTING ME IN POSTINGS
WHERE NOBODY ELSE WANTS TO GO.

- AND AS FOR YOU TWO?
- OH, WE WERE ON A TREK,

A WHOLE BUNCH OF US,

AND ONE OF OUR GROUP
GOT BIT BY A SPIDER.

HUH, A SPIDER?

YEAH, REAL BAD.

AND WE HAD TO TAKE HER
TO THIS VILLAGE,

BUT SHE NEEDS SOME
SERIOUS MEDICAL ATTENTION.

YEAH, SO IS THERE
A HELICOPTER WE CAN TAKE?

- LOAD UP WITH SUPPLIES AND THEN WE CAN--
- A HELICOPTER?

SORRY.

I DO NOT MEAN
TO BE DISRESPECTFUL.

DO YOU REMEMBER THE NAME
OF THE VILLAGE?

UH... KAR...

- KAR...
- KORLI...

- KARNI MATA?
- YEAH.

YOU KNOW IT?
HE KNOWS IT.

IT'S A VILLAGE MUCH TALKED
ABOUT BY THE LOCALS,

SHROUDED IN LOCAL COLOR
AND LEGEND.

BUT I HAVE BEEN SO BUSY TRYING TO
GET ACQUAINTED WITH THIS TOWN,

I HAVE YET TO GO INTO THE JUNGLE AND LOOK AROUND.

SHE WAS TREATED
BY THE DOCTOR,

BUT HE SAID THEY WERE
GONNA NEED MORE SUPPLIES

IF SHE WAS,

YOU KNOW, GONNA LIVE.

- SO YOUR FRIENDS ARE THERE, TOO?
- YEAH.

OKAY, I'LL SEE
WHAT I CAN DO.

CIVILIZATION HAS BEATEN
A PATH TO MY DOOR.

I'M LECORPUS.

DR. LECORPUS.

YOU MUST BE THE ILLUSTRIOUS
NEW TOWN SERGEANT.

SERGEANT CHADHRI, YES.

WELL, I'M REALLY HAPPY
TO MEET YOU FACE TO FACE,

ALTHOUGH IT BROUGHT ME GREAT PAIN
TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR PREDECESSOR.

- I HOPE HE TURNS UP.
- SO DO I.

YEAH, I HEARD
THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE

THAT YOU ARE RUNNING
A TIGHT SHIP IN YOUR TOWN.

I DON'T RUN THE TOWN.
I JUST PROTECT IT.

REALLY?

THEY REALLY GET WHIPPED INTO A FRENZY WITH NEWCOMERS.

WHAT IS THAT?

IT'S MY BROTHER.

- BROTHER?
- YEAH.

HE SUFFERS FROM A SEVERE
BONE DEFORMITY

AND I'M TREATING HIM.

THE NATIVES HERE THINK OF HIM AS A GOD BECAUSE OF IT.

HE HATES CIVILIZATION.

IT'S WELL-FOUNDED.

YOU CAME BECAUSE
OF THE GIRL?

- THAT'S RIGHT. HOW IS SHE?
- GONE.

- DEAD?
- NO, SHE'S WELL ENOUGH.

THEY GOT AN EARLY START.
YOU KNOW HOW THE JUNGLE CAN BE AFTER DARK.

- I SEE.
- IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE?

WELL, YOU CAN GIVE ME
MY GUN BACK.

OH, OF COURSE.

OH, YEAH.

BY THE WAY,
WHAT'S THE WORD ON THE HELICOPTER?

- HELICOPTER?
- YES, DON'T YOU KNOW ABOUT THE HELICOPTER?

NO, I DON'T KNOW
ABOUT A HELICOPTER.

- DO YOU MIND IF I TAKE A LOOK AROUND?
- NO, I DON'T.

MAYBE VISIT THE TEMPLE.

HEARD SO MUCH ABOUT IT,
NEVER SEEN IT, BUT MOST CURIOUS.

IT IS SPECTACULAR.

IT WILL MAKE
YOUR TRIP WORTHWHILE.

IT'S GONNA BE
A WHILE YET, GINA.

YOU MIGHT AS WELL
SIT DOWN,

GO TO YOUR ROOM,
HANG OUT AND STUFF.

AND STUFF?

YEAH, NICE TRY.

YOU'RE MAKING ME TIRED
JUST WATCHING YOU.

I JUST FEEL GUILTY,
YOU KNOW?

I KNEW IT.

I SHOULD HAVE STAYED
WITH STACEY, OKAY?

THERE.

I MEAN, THAT WAS
THE WHOLE POINT

OF THIS STUPID VACATION.

I TAKE IT THIS WASN'T
YOUR FIRST CHOICE.

GEE, YOU THINK?

HELLO?

HELLO?

HEY.

IS STACEY BACK YET?

NOT YET.

PHIL'S HEADING TO
THE NEXT TOWN RIGHT NOW.

IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE
A LITTLE BIT MORE...

UPDATED
THAN THIS ONE.

YOU THINK MAYBE CHADHRI'S TAKEN
GERALDINE TO THE HOSPITAL?

- YEAH, MAYBE.
- HUH?

I'M GONNA HEAD
BACK TO THE VILLAGE,

SEE WHAT THERE IS TO SEE.

MAYBE THE DOCTOR
SAW OR HEARD SOMETHING.

YEAH, OR MAYBE THE DOCTOR
AND HIS SACK-HEAD BROTHER

- ARE IN ON IT.
- IN ON WHAT?

WHATEVER IT IS THAT STACEY
AND THE REST ARE CAUGHT UP IN.

THE DOCTOR
WASN'T A THREAT!

A LITTLE BIT
ECCENTRIC, YES.

YEAH, WELL,
I'M GOING BACK WITH YOU.

NO.

LOOK, YOU'RE STAYING HERE.

THERE NEEDS TO BE SOMEONE HERE WHEN THEY DO TURN UP.

YEAH, AND SOMEBODY ELSE
CAN DO THAT.

GINA, I'VE TOLD YOU ALREADY,
I'M GONNA HEAD TO THE VILLAGE,

- PHIL'S OUT LOOKING FOR THE NEXT TOWN--
- JOHN!

I CAN EITHER GO WITH YOU OR WITHOUT YOU.

EITHER WAY I'M GOING.

THAT'S IT OVER THERE.

YOU HEAR THAT?

YEAH, LOOK,
A HELICOPTER.

THAT'S PROBABLY THEM NOW!

SEE? THEY MUST HAVE WAITED
FOR THE HELICOPTER,

BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T RISK MOVING
GERALDINE THROUGH THE JUNGLE.

CASE CLOSED, NANCY DREW.

YEAH.
THAT MAKES SENSE.

EXCEPT WHEN WE ASKED THAT
CHADHRI GUY FOR A HELICOPTER,

WHAT DID HE DO?

- LAUGHED.
- IN OUR FACES.

YOU HEAR THAT?

- YEAH.
- COME ON.

OH GOD!

HELP ME!
HELP ME!

- STACEY!
- GINA.

GINA! NO, GINA.

DON'T SAY A WORD.

HELP ME!

HELP ME!

DON'T LOOK, DON'T LOOK.

FOR YOU, BROTHER!

FOR YOU!

MY GOD!

DON'T LOOK, GINA!
DON'T LOOK.

RUN!

NOT THAT WAY!

GINA!

STACEY!

STACEY, COME ON.
STACEY!

STACEY!
STACEY, COME ON.

COME ON! COME ON!

STACEY, COME ON.

SHE'S NOT DEAD.

SHE'S PARALYZED.

THE VENOM.

NO PAIN.

NO NOTHING.

OH GOD!

- STACEY!
- GINA!

YOU'LL HAVE TO WAIT
FOR ME, BROTHER.

OH, WHERE THE HELL
HAS SHE GONE NOW?!

GINA!

OKAY.
GET A GRIP.

IT'S OKAY.

OKAY, STACEY!

OKAY.
GINA, GET A GRIP.

IT'S OKAY.

GINA!

IT'S OKAY. IT'S OKAY.

IT'S OKAY.

IT'S OKAY.
IT'S OKAY.

IT'S OKAY.

IT'S OKAY.
IT'S OKAY.

GINA!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

LEAVE IT!

GINA!

GINA!

- YOU OKAY?
- YEAH.

YOU KNOW, IF I HAD MY WAY,

STACEY AND I WOULD BE ON AN ISLAND SOMEWHERE

DRINKING MARGARITAS.

- ARE YOU OKAY?
- YEAH.

YEAH, I TELL YOU WHAT,

WHEN WE GET
OUT OF HERE

I'LL BUY YOU
THAT MARGARITA.

TELL YOU WHAT,
WE GET OUT OF HERE

I'M GONNA HOLD YOU TO THAT.

I CANNOT HELP YOU, SIR.

THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE IN HERE.

OF COURSE YOU'LL
STAY HERE A LONG TIME.

- EXCUSE ME. EXCUSE ME.
- HEY! HEY!

EXCUSE ME--

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!

YOU SHOULD REALLY
PAY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION.

RONALD REAGAN'S STILL
AN ACTOR IN THIS ARTICLE.

HOLY...

I'VE GOT A REALLY
BIG PROBLEM.

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
SHH!

SEE THIS GUY?

OH...

WHAT IS IT?

IT WORKS.

LET ME SEE IT.

GINA, YOU--
YOU SHOULDN'T WATCH THIS.

JOHN, LET ME SEE IT.

JOHN, LET ME SEE IT!

Brian?

Brian?

Brian?

Oh my God!
Oh my God!

OH MY GOD.

OH MY GOD, STACEY.

BRIAN!

GINA, GET THIS
STUFF OFF HIM.

WE'RE GONNA
GET YOU OUT OF THIS.

HOLD ON, BRIAN. IT'S OKAY.

OKAY, BRIAN.

HOLD ON. HOLD ON.

YOU'RE GONNA BE
OKAY, BRIAN.

BRIAN?

SERGEANT CHADHRI.

YOUR FRIEND?

YEAH.
OUR GUIDE BRIAN.

HOW THE HELL DO WE
GET OUT OF HERE?

I AM STILL TRYING
TO WORK THAT ONE OUT.

WE FOLLOW THEM.

PERHAPS THEY LEAD US
TO A WAY OUT.

PERHAPS THEY LEAD US
TO YOUR FRIEND.

BUT WHAT ABOUT BRIAN?

WE CAN'T JUST LEAVE HIM HERE.

WE MUST GO.

COME.

HOLY COW.

THIS...

THIS IS...

THE SPIDER'S NEST.

HEY, WHAT'S THAT
STUFF UP THERE?

I DO NOT HAVE A CLUE.

- SO WHAT NOW?
- WE KEEP GOING?

WHERE?

- YEAH, RIGHT!
- CAN YOU DO IT?

I THINK SO.

YEAH. FINE. OKAY.

LET'S GO.

I THINK I JUST GOT
ALL THE EVIDENCE I NEED.

YOU THINK?

- A HARVESTING STATION.
- A WHAT?

FOR HUMAN ORGANS.

YES. YES, TO SELL
ON THE BLACK MARKET.

SEE THESE TUBES?

THEY ARE PROBABLY USED
TO EXTRACT THE VENOM.

VENOM?

QUITE SMART ACTUALLY.

USING THAT
TO INDUCE PARALYSIS

SLOWS DOWN THE ATROPHY
OF THE ORGANS.

I'M SORRY, WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

TO KEEP THEM FRESH
FOR THE TRANSPORT.

OH MY GOD!

MY PREDECESSOR.

INVINCIBLE YOUTH REALLY MAKES ME FEEL SICK, DIRTY,

ITCHY, ITCHY.

OH GOD!
OH NO! NO.

NO, PL--

GINA!

STACEY!

THE POLICE FORCE HAS ARRIVED.
THE POLICE FORCE--

THIS WOULD BE A GOOD POINT FOR YOU TO GIVE UP.

LET'S GO.
COME ON.

COME ON.

DID YOU THINK YOU'LL EVER
GET OUT OF THIS JUNGLE ALIVE?

THE TALWAR
WILL CUT YOU DOWN

AND I'LL BARTER
WITH YOUR ORGANS.

IT'S TIME
FOR A GOOD LAY DOWN.

PSYCHO!
MANIAC!

STACEY, NO!

COME ON!

LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

RUN! COME ON!

THEY'RE COMING!
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?

NO!

AH!

NO!

EXCUSE ME,
BUT I'VE GOT AN IDEA.

WE NEED TO HURRY.
LET ME GO FIRST.

IF EVERYTHING IS OKAY,
THEN YOU THREE FOLLOW, OKAY?

YEAH. OKAY.

IT SEEMS TO BE FINE.

LET'S GO. STACEY?

OKAY. I'LL BE OKAY.

- DON'T LOOK DOWN.
- OKAY.

ARE YOU SURE
THIS IS GONNA HOLD?

Y-YES, OF COURSE.

STEADY.

S-STEADY, STEADY.

- CHADHRI, WHAT IS IT?
- NOTHING.

J-JUST HURRY.

J-JOHN, YOU WAIT THERE, OKAY?
UNTIL WE'RE ALL ACROSS.

HUH?

OH, GOD.

HURRY!

IT'S ALL GOING TO BE FINE.
