[baby babbling]

My beautiful, beautiful boy.
See how handsome you are.

Well, Hadji?

The VR memory probe
is working, Jonny.

I am finally
seeing...my mother..

My little Hadji.

Isn't your son
handsome, Haresh?

(Hadji)
'...and my real father.'

Yes, Neela,
handsome and strong.



[coughing]

[panting]

[gasping]

Hadji,
what's wrong?

I am older now, Jonny.
Running from someone.

(Hadji)
'I know not who.
Yet, I am afraid.'

Don't be scared,
little fella.

[sighing]

(Hadji)
'It's Pasha.
My adopted father.'

'No!'

crackle crackle

Pasha, No.

Easy, Hadji.
Are you--

What's going on?



We heard a scream.

Nothing to be alarmed about.

I-I-I was merely..

You're using Dr. Quest's
new VR memory probe.

He hasn't
even perfected it yet.

I know.

I was hoping
it would unlock memories

of my lost childhood,
Jessi.

Oh, it was wonderful.

I saw my mother
and father.

But then I saw Pasha
and he was trying to kill me.

Pasha the peddler? But he's
the man who raised you.

Yes, and that is what
makes this memory..

...if it is real,
so so disturbing.

Hadji, why don't you just call
Pasha and ask him about it?

Oh, you have read
my mind, Jessie.

(Hadji)
'Hello.'

'Hello, Pasha.
This is Hadji.'

'Are you there?'

You want Pasha?
Come and get him.

ha ha ha

crash

beep beep beep

The phone went dead.

Something is wrong.

I must go
to Calcutta at once.

And I thought with Dr. Quest
at the pentagon for a week..

...I was gonna be bored.

[instrumental music]

[car honking]

screech

Gee, Hadji, it's more
crowded than I remember it.

screech

Oh, now I'm sure
something is wrong.

Pasha would never close up
shop on a busy market day.

Let's take a look.

(Race)
'Think Pasha takes
credit cards?'

creak

[intense music]

slam

Wow! Looks like
a monsoon hit this place.

Pasha?

Pasha!

Wonder what they
were after?

Not money.

Plenty of rupees
still in the register.

Pasha's not here.

But who would do this?

And why?

cling

There!

He is the one.

Get him.

Sorry, I'm his
personal secretary

and you're gonna have
to make an appointment..

biff

...with a good dentist.

clink

Dad.

crash

Jess.

thud

You have a date
with destiny.

I guess, destiny's
been stood up.

thud

biff

thwack

[police whistling]

(male# 1)
'Yes, officer, in there.'

It's the police.

In there.

Arrest him.

Not so fast, Sahib.

You're making
a big mistake.

The one's who did this
are getting away.

There you see,
this is how he broke in.

I saw him.

Keep it. It's way over
the limit anyway.

Come on, let him go. This place
was thrashed before we got here.

- He speaks the truth officers.
- Is that so?

Your credentials seem
in order, Mr. Bannon

and you insist
you have no idea

why these thugs
attacked Mr. Hadji.

None, whatsoever.

But I'm sure if we find Pasha
or those goons who jumped us

we'll get some answers.

Rest assured the Calcutta
Police are on the case.

And so are we.

[intense music]

What?

I had a feeling you creeps
might wanna try again.

clink

thud

thud

- You were right, dad.
- Need any help, Race?

The situation's in hand, kids.
Now, start talking.

Race, these assasins
have a code of silence.

- He will never talk.
- Then I'm--

thud

crash

Race, he's getting away.

vroom

Relax, Jonny.
I let him get away..

...but not scot-free.

beep beep

Hey, it's one of my dad's
tracking scanners.

You planted a micro
homing pin on that creep?

Way to go, dad.

Just 'cause a thug
won't talk

doesn't mean he can't
tell us where he's going.

vroom

beep beep beep

Race, something's wrong.

According to this scanner
he's no longer on the road.

We're close to the airport.
He must have taken off.

(Race)
'But he won't
shake our tail'

'we'll follow him
in the Dragonfly.'

whoosh

[intense music]

beep

- Still got 'em, Jonny?
- Yup.

He appears to be headed
toward the mountain provinces.

[music continues]

That boy's bodyguard
broke my wrist.

Our employer will not
be pleased by our failure.

Huh? What is this?

It's some kind
of tracking device.

Hadji's friends
must be following us.

No matter.

I have our own
following...them.

crack

whoosh

- 'Race, he must have--'
- Found the bug.

That's alright.

I'm locked onto
his last co-ordinates

'and the Dragonfly
is fast enough to catch up.'

We'll tail 'em visually.

Sounds like we've
got an air leak.

hiss

[gasping]

What?

[grunting]

Can't see.

[screaming]

[intense music]

Jonny, take the controls.

Right, Race.
Got 'em.

crash

Race, makes this look easy.

- Hadji, where's that snake?
- I am looking, Jonny.

Just concentrate
on your flying.

Don't panic. This is just
like my PC flight simulator.

Except the mountains are real.

hiss

thud

Hadji.

I got him.

Come on, dad. We've gotta
rinse out your eyes.

Thanks, Jess.
The burning stopped.

'But I still can't see.'

I don't think Jonny's handling
his solo flight too smoothly.

Why don't you get up
there, and give him a hand?

- You're not going anywhere.
- Huh?

shash

clank

'Keep away from her.'

swish

- 'Hey, you forgot something.'
- What?

Catch!

No!

clank

click

No!

No!

[alarm blaring]

click

Hey, what was
goin' on back there?

Hadji, was just
getting rid of the snake.

Look a landing strip.

I'm not sure
I can land this.

But we can, together.

[tires screeching]

Nice landing, ace.

We even have
a welcoming commitee.

[intense music]

'From what you have
told me, Hadji'

you are all fortunate to have
reached my palace alive.

Yes, I have
had better days, Sultan.

Then, a good nights
rest is what you need.

- You'll all stay here tonight.
- Cool!

We do not get many strangers
to this part of India.

It is a privilege for Vikram,
Sultan of Bangalore to help.

Thank you, your highness.

But it is strange..

...I have the feeling
I have been here before.

Oh, but you have.

This was your birth place

and it will now be your
final resting place, cousin.

snap

Cousin?

[screaming]

So much for
the Bangalore welcome mat.

- Everyone okay?
- I guess so.

(Hadji)
'Pasha? Is that you?'

Yeah, it's me Hadji.

I was hoping
to escape to warn you

but these guards refused
to take my bribes.

Pasha, if you can't wheel
and deal your way out of here..

...then we must
be in big trouble.

- You got it, Race.
- But I-I do not get it, Pasha.

In my dream, I saw you
trying to kill me.

And now, this Sultan
calls me cousin..

...and wants to do
the same.

Yeah, well it's all true,
Hadji and I guess I need

to set you straight,
before we all die.

(Pasha)
'Years ago, Bangalore
was happy place.'

'Haresh was the Sultan and you
Hadji were his only son.'

creak

Oh!

[all clapping]

Bravo, Neela.

Little Hadji has inherited
his mystical skills from you.

ha ha ha

(Pasha)
'The Sultan was well loved,
but he'd never been a well guy.'

'And everybody knew
that you, Hadji'

'would soon be the next
Sultan of Bangalore.'

Me? Sultan?

It's your destiny, man.

The male line of sucession.

[all clapping]

(Pasha)
'Your father's evil brother,
your uncle Deepak'

'he'd always wanted
to rule Bangalore.'

'And his son Vikram
to rule after him.'

(Hadji)
'Vikram?
He's the Sultan now.'

(Pasha)
'Yeah, but then he
was only a 12 year old kid'

'and you were just four.'

'One night Deepak hired
a guy to kill you.'

'That guy was me, and I couldn't
go through with it.'

I stole you away
from the palace

'cause I knew it'd
be unhealthy for both of us'

'if Deepak ever found out.'

That's why I fled
from city to city, Hadji

raising you as my own,
and teaching you all my tricks.

I never told you
what I'd been. What I'd done.

Could you find it in
your heart to forgive me?

Oh, Pasha.

And what of my parents?
Are they still alive?

Your father Haresh died soon
after your disapperance

and your mother--

Is alive, Hadji.

Mother!

Oh, Hadji, I never stopped
believing you were alive.

I was you in my dreams.

[instrumental music]

(Neela)
'And even after your
treacherous uncle became Sultan'

'I kept using my mental powers
trying to find you.'

'Each time I got close,
Pasha had already moved on.'

[screaming]

'Then your Uncle Deepak,
died suddenly'

'and Vikram, the most
evil of all became Sultan.'

'He said, I was crazy to keep
searching for my missing son.'

'He wanted me to stop,
and yet he was fearful'

'the people of Bangalore
who dispise him, might revolt.'

'So, he humored me and allowed
me to keep looking for you.'

'The rightful heir
to the throne.'

'My search was in vain, until
a few days ago in Calcutta'

'my psychic power
led me to Pasha's shop.'

'I saw your picture,
and I knew you at once, my son.'

thump thump thump

(Vikram)
'Lucky for me, I had my thugs
following your every move.'

[gasping]

Now, what a joyous
family reunion this is.

So glad you could join us,
Cousin Hadji.

You saved me the expense

of having to track
you down to kill you.

I must say, these friends of
yours made it quite a challenge.

creak

(Jonny)
'Hadji.'

Do not feel neglected,
tomorrow you three will die.

Victims of a targic plane crash
in the nearby mountains.

You won't get away with this.

slam

Dad, we gotta
do something.

I'm working on it,
Jess.

There isn't a lock
I can't pick.

There.

Race, this door
has no keyhole.

Guess we'll just have
to make our own, Jonny.

If the people of Bangalore
knew what you were doing..

[chuckling]

Too true, aunty.

That is why I must keep my own
private army of assasins.

At great expense,
I might add.

After this is all over, I think
I'll raise taxes again.

Now, since the cobra
my thug put in your plane

didn't finish you
off, Hadji..

'...I thought I'd give
it's relatives a second chance.'

To think it has taken all
these years to finally meet.

Do not despair, Hadji. Remember
what I thought you as a baby.

Concentrate.

(Both)
Sim Sim

beep beep

It's show time.

- Come mother.
- No, Hadji, save yourself.

(Vikram)
'How touching.
That was a good trick cousin.'

Now, let us see
if you are arrow proof.

bang!

Get them.

Get down!

Aah!

Jessie, stop the cage.

Race!

[grunting]

No. You shall
not save them.

[grunting]

Hadji!

Salim!

bwok

hiss

No!
Let me go, you fool.

'I command you.'

Help me!

[screaming]

thud

thump thump

- Mother. Pasha. Are you--
- We're okay, kid.

It'll take more than a couple
of snakes to finish Pasha off.

You are Sultan now,
my son.

Yes, and I will do
what must be done.

[instrumental music]

(Hadji)
'Yes, It's true. There has been
sadness in the past.'

'But I want the future
of Bangalore to be a happy one.'

[all cheering]

Your father would be
so proud, Hadji.

(Hadji)
'My heart will always be here
in Bangalore with you.'

I have another family,
in another part of the world.

'I hope, I may
rejoin them soon'

'and when I do, I want my mother
to rule in my absence.'

Power in Bangalore, shall
no longer be a male prerogative.

[all cheering]

Right on, Sultan.

Well, Your Highness, guess
we better be getting back.

Listen Race, about your jet,
I can get it patched up for ya..

...wholesale.

Let me think about it.

Ah, okay.

No, thanks.

whoosh

Do you really think
Hadji's gonna come back to us?

He's got lots of
catching up to do, Jess

with a family
he never knew he had.

Hey, he said
he'd be back.

(Jonny)
'And a Sultans word
is good enough for me.'
