Ah!
(male #1)
'There she is.'
[panting]
[intense music]
Aaah!
Quicksand.
Help!
Need our assistance, senorita?
[sinister laughing]
Help me.
Unh! Thank you.
No, thank you.
[sinister laughing]
[gasps]
[gasps]
- 'Jonny.'
- Hang on, Jessie.
Yaah!
Unh!
Yenh!
Unh!
Up to your neck
in trouble, I see.
Good to see you too.
Now, how about getting me
out of here.
[gunshot]
[gasps]
Huh?
Ha ha ha.
Heads up.
(Jonny)
'Race, look out.!'
[intense music]
Ya-a-ahh!
Dad.
- You two, okay?
- Mm-hmm.
(Race)
'Now, what's going on, Jess?'
We fly to Malenque to pick you
up, your mother can't find you--
They're after
this medallion, dad.
[gunshot]
[machine gun firing]
(Race)
Watch out!
[intense music]
[panting]
- Aah!
- Aah!
[music continues]
Just hold on.
[laughing]
Argh!
Dad.
Race!
No.
snap
[music continues]
Hang on, Jess.
[helicopter whirring]
The natives do not look
friendly, Dr. Quest.
Better hit
the sonic blaster, Hadji.
[zapping]
[all screaming]
[glass shatters]
[indistinct chatter]
[music continues]
Come on, Jonny, reach.
[grunting]
Aaah!
Hey, nice catch, Jessie,
I owe you one.
Let's just call it even.
[barking and whimpering]
[laughing]
Hey, who's dog are you anyway?
It is only natural, Jonny.
After all Bandit hasn't seen
Jessie for two weeks.
[instrumental music]
[birds chirping]
Ah, come on, Estella. Couldn't
you find a less dangerous place
for a mother-daughter vacation?
Dad.
I come to pick up my daughter,
my ex-wife has lost her
and I find her chin deep
in quicksand.
[sighs]
I just love it when you play
the over protective papa, Race.
I suppose, you've never taken
her anywhere dangerous?
Mom.
Besides, the ruins of Malenque
happen to be one of
'the pre-Columbian
architectural wonders'
'of my country.'
- Isn't that true, Dr. Quest?
- I agree, Estella.
At least you can appreciate
how important it is
to stimulate a young person's
intellectual curiosity.
And the Malenque were
not only skilled builders
as these impressive ruins show,
but also years advanced
in their scientific
and medical skills.
Fascinating people.
Okay, I surrender.
I know when I'm outnumbered.
Whatever happened
to the Malenque anyway?
I am only a policeman,
not a scientist.
But as far as I know
they just died out suddenly.
Colonel Salazar,
is correct, Jonny.
No one knows
why the Malenque disappeared.
A plague, perhaps.
I just wish I could've examined
the medallion Jessie found.
Well, I've got
the next best thing.
- A rubbing?
- Right.
You taught me
to always make one
whenever dealing with dealing
with rare artifacts.
I'd just finished it when those
creeps started chasing me.
How's your grasp
of ancient Malenque, Estella?
(Estella)
'"The mummies have their home
beneath the weeping stone.'
'"Their tears have
come too late'
to avoid their wicked fate."
I have been patrolling
this area for years.
No mummies have
ever been discovered.
Can you show me where
you found it, Senorita Bannon?
Sure.
'It was behind
this crumbled wall.'
This frieze depicts the ancient
Malenque medicine man.
(Dr. Quest)
'They appear
to be making elixirs'
'to defeat their enemies.'
Unfortunately their enemies
still exist.
Like the thieves who are
constantly trying to steal
our ancient artifacts.
Dad, I wanna go to the river
and wash off.
Think you can stay out of
trouble for 10 minutes?
Hmph.
Don't worry, Race,
we'll protect her.
woof
[barking]
Wow! No wonder your mom took you
here for vacation, Jess.
This place is cool.
(Hadji)
'Yes, it appears
Bandit thinks so too.'
woof
There you see,
those colored boulders indicate
their high copper content.
Hmm. Mom says there used to be
copper mines around here.
[Bandit whimpering]
Bandit. What is it, boy?
[growling]
Run!
[intense music]
[growling]
Quick, in here.
Whew, he's too big.
(Jessie)
'Now what?
This is a dead end cave.'
Perhaps I can calm
his raging spirit.
[dramatic music]
[growling]
I see it,
but I don't believe it.
You gotta teach me
that trick, Hadji.
[grunting]
- Jess, what're you doing?
- Help me.
The medallion inscription
beneath the weeping stone.
[growling]
Aaah! So much for cat hypnosis.
[growling]
Jump!
[intense music]
- Aaah!
- Oh, no!
Whoa!
[all screaming]
Hang on.
thud
Go, Bandit.
Give me your hand.
Guess I better see
where we are.
That was some ride.
[rats squeaking]
[gasps]
Mummies?
(Jessie)
'They're mummies of Malenque.'
[gasps]
[footsteps approaching]
Something's alive down here.
woof
[intense music]
How many more of these before
that doctor gets what he needs?
Who cares! The doctor maybe
loco but his money is good.
Heh, this is a regular mummy
mercoda, eh, Miguel?
[laughter]
[grunts]
Hey, Louis,
grab another one.
[grunts]
(Jessie)
We're in one of the
old mining tunnels.
They must have a way out.
Now, if we could just
avoid those thugs
and their mummy snatching
employer, perhaps we can--
Avoid them?
I wanna find out exactly
what this doctor is up to.
I'm right behind you, Jonny.
Coming, Hadji?
[sighs]
Why am I always out voted?
Jessie, Jonny, Hadji!
Sometimes I wish I had an
electronic collar on those kids.
Jessie?
I tracked them to this cave,
but they're not here.
Unless.
What're we waiting for, dear?
I wonder how normal families
spend their vacations?
[intense music]
[indistinct chatter]
(male #2)
'Hand me that. Careful!'
Aah!
Careful, you fool,
you could kill us all.
Isn't it ironic?
Centuries ago my ancestors
developed a plague
'to wipe out their enemies.'
'But instead
were wiped out themselves.'
'The antidote came too late.'
But now, I, one of the last
descendants of the Malenque
will fulfill the destiny
to rule the world.
Rule the world?
With this?
This is fate, my friend.
The fate that drove me
to become a biochemist.
The same fate that led my
brother to find the mummies.
So I could use their
preserved intact tissue
to resurrect the plague.
No!
[coughing]
[groaning]
(male #2)
'Within one hour
he will be dead.'
Just a small sacrifice
for the good of my people.
And now the rest
of the world will learn
that not only do the Malenque
live but live to conquer!
Jonny, it is imperative
we sneak out of here.
- You've got my vote, Hadj.
- It's unanimous.
clang
It's those kids.
(Jessie)
The cart.
[Bandit barking]
[grunts]
Don't breathe.
You fool, the sound
might cause a cave in.
[intense music]
[barking]
Bandit, get help.
Jonny, I think
it's the end of the line.
We've gotta jump.
Come on!
[coughing]
Oh, no, Jess.
Quick, Hadji, grab an arm!
crash
It's gonna be okay, Jess.
[laughing]
[intense music]
Aah!
Unh!
[barking]
Thanks for finding us, Bandit.
If you're gonna keep saving me,
maybe we should get remarr--
Jessie!
[Bandit whimpering]
Jessie, what has happened
to you?
Race, do something.
Jonny, what's wrong with her?
Some crazy doctor cooked up
an ancient plague
from the Malenque mummies.
And she will die within one hour
without the antidote.
It is in the medallion
that Jessie found.
- Race, we have to--
- Don't worry, Estella.
I'll get it.
Race¦! Wait for me.
[barking]
[gun cocking]
Don't even think about it.
He's gone, Race,
and he's got the medallion
along with a whole box
full of plague globules.
Aah!
Went to steal a helicopter.
Stop him.
Dad's chopper.
Colonel Salazar! Boy,
are we glad to see you.
[panting]
We need your help.
A mad man has poisoned my
daughter and he's on his way--
I'm afraid I cannot help you,
Mr. Bannon.
You see, that mad man is my
brother Dr. Rabel Salazar.
We are the last of the Malenque.
Aah!
Unh!
Thanks, Bandit.
You'll probably need
a rabies shot.
[dramatic music]
Ow.
Dad!
I'm alright, Jonny.
Just stop them.
- Jonny, take the wheel.
- Got it!
[music continues]
Ha ha ha.
(Race)
'Not this time, goldy.'
Aa-a-ah!
Yaaah!
[intense music]
Argh.
[intense music]
Unh!
[music continues]
[grunting]
Aah!
Nothing will stop me.
Do you hear?
Nothing.
No.
Keep your hands off me.
Did you think
you could stop me?
The Malenque will rise again.
[growling]
Race.
'The mummies are alive.'
No, it can't be.
It was our own evil
that wiped us out centuries ago.
We will not let you do it again.
Race.
(Race)
'Unbelievable.'
This place is gonna blow.
No. I've got to get
the medallion.
It's Jessie's only hope.
No.
[doctor coughing]
[laughing]
You can't stop me.
I have the antidote.
What?
No.
Argh!
[intense music]
No!
[explosion]
Come on, Jessie.
You can make it.
[groaning]
Oh, Jessie.
(both)
Yes.
[whimpering]
Bandit.
No, go ahead, Bandit,
I'm not jealous.
We're on the same team here.
I'm just glad
we all made it.
[rumbling]
(Iris the computer)
'Welcome to Quest World.'
'Please specify desired data.'
'Acknowledged
detailing Quest World Pets.'
'Quest World parameters
allow for pets'
'of all shapes and sizes.'
'Ranging from swimming
instructors to fire protectors.'
'Quest World Pets
are completely vectorized'
'and come fully trained.'
'Exercise caution with pets.'
'They tend to slither away.'
'Thank you

Good to see you too.
Now, how about getting me
