Okay, boys.
Move back with those
hoses. Clear the area!
All set, Dr. Quest?
We're ready. Are
you all set, Race?
All set to go, doctor.
What is your father
going to do, Jonny?
Going to put that
fire out, if he can.
How's he going to do that?
With some new kind
of fire bomb, Hadji.
It works by remote control.
Remote control?
I hope it works, Jonny.
Well, me too.
And that makes it
unanimous, eh, Bandit?
If this particular fire
bomb is successful, Race,
it could be the answer
to these destructive
flash oil-well fires.
How does it work, doctor?
Actually, quite simply.
The bomb operates
on the same principle
as blowing out a match.
That's a pretty big
match to blow out.
Yes, I know, but here goes.
Let's hope she
doesn't jump the track.
So far, so good.
I hope the heat from that fire
doesn't buckle the tracks.
About 30 feet to go, doctor.
All right.
Easy now easy.
RACE: It's in position.
DOCTOR: This is it.
RACE: I'm keeping
my fingers crossed.
BOTH: Yay, it worked.
Yippee! Hey! Yay!
Well, score another bull's-eye
for science, doctor.
Yes, it's gratifying
when we can come up
with the right answers.
Nice work, doctor.
Glad I could help.
Now you'd better cool off
your well with that water.
Right, sir.
Juice that well down, boys!
Boy, that worked great, Dad.
Thanks, son.
Now you know bombs
can be useful too.
Oh, Dr. Quest.
Yes?
Phone call for you.
I'll be right there.
Yes, governor.
Yes? It sounds serious.
Oh, you can rely on me.
We'll leave immediately.
Thank you, Dr. Quest.
It is most urgent.
We shall be waiting.
Yes. Goodbye, doctor.
How innocent and
harmless you look, Tahawa.
What's that down there?
RACE: The island
of Bahiti, Jonny.
There's the problem,
Mount Tahawa.
It doesn't look very dangerous.
It looks peaceful.
Let's go down for
a closer look, Dad.
Not now. It's too risky, boys.
If that volcano is alive, it
could go again any time.
Go right on in, Race.
The governor is waiting for us.
I've never thought
of trying the bomb
on a volcano, governor.
Is there any chance
that it might work?
Well, perhaps a larger
charge might seal it off.
Will you try it?
DOCTOR: I'd like to take
a look at Mount Tahawa
first from the air.
GOVERNOR: There
is a plane in the hangar,
next to your quarters,
at your disposal, doctor.
Fine. We'll take off
directly after
breakfast tomorrow.
We are grateful,
Dr. Quest, that you
[DEEP RUMBLING]
Hey, what's happening?
It's Mount Tahawa. Look!
That is the seventh time
this month, Dr. Quest.
Strange, isn't it, Race?
Yes, very strange.
It doesn't act like a volcano.
No, it doesn't.
All right, governor.
We'll have a closer
look at it tomorrow.
Thank you, doctor.
It is terrifying, no?
DOCTOR: More interesting
than terrifying, governor.
Simon 11 calling headquarters.
MAN: This is Headquarters.
Put me through to Simon
One. This is important!
Is that all, 11?
No, there is more.
The name is Dr. Quest,
and the one with him
is named Race Bannon.
Very good, Simon 11.
Now get back to your station.
Simon One calling Dr. Zin.
Simon One calling Dr. Zin.
Simon One calling Dr. Zin.
Simon One calling Dr. Zin.
What is it, One?
We have completed series
two of our volcano explosion.
And the results?
100. Perfect shots.
Good.
Very good.
[LAUGHS] After our final tests,
this new destructive force
will be available to
those who can pay,
and they will.
There is just
one thing, Dr. Zin.
A Dr. Quest has
arrived on the island.
Dr. Quest. Are you sure?
Yes, Dr. Zin.
They plan to fly over
the crater tomorrow.
Well, stop them! Stop
them! Do you hear?
Yes, Dr. Zin.
You have ways. Use them.
Yes, Dr. Zin.
That is all.
You know where Dr. Quest sleeps,
and you know what to do.
Yes, One. We know what to do.
[ALARM RINGING]
[GROWLS]
What's up, Bandit? Huh?
Oh, no!
What's wrong, Jonny?
Look! On my dad!
Holy smoke! A tarantula!
Dad! Dad! Don't move.
Don't move. Keep very still.
Hey, Race
I have an idea
I think will work.
I think I follow you. Go ahead.
Here goes
I got him!
And I got him.
[PITCHER SMASHES]
You got him, all right.
Yuck. What a mess.
Hey
[SNIFFS]
Does anyone here smell smoke?
Yes, I do, Race.
I do too.
Hey, look!
The hangar's on fire!
Let's go. We've got
to save the plane.
Keep those hoses going, fellas.
Better hurry, Race.
Those gas tanks
are liable to go.
I'm beginning to
think someone's trying
to keep us away
from Mount Tahawa.
Yeah. I'm getting
the same message.
We'll leave in the
morning, regardless.
Kind of figured you'd say that.
There they go, Jonny.
Yeah, and I sure wish
we were going along.
Looks pretty quiet.
Yes, we'll see.
When you get closer, Race,
circle the crater a few times.
Right, doctor.
I just hope that volcano
doesn't start acting up again.
Me too.
Simon Three calling Simon One.
Go ahead, Three.
Have them clear at five miles.
Altitude, 3500 feet.
Very good.
Maintain position until
within initia-ray range.
Will maintain.
Three miles and closing.
I am turning the
circuit over to you.
Give me the scope.
Take the circuit.
Raise initia-ray
platform to firing position.
Open crater firing ports.
Open the crater floor.
What do you make of that?
I can't quite figure it out.
Let's proceed with caution.
Stand by to fire.
Hold it. Hold it.
Steady now Fire!
What was that?
An invisible ray.
Obviously some kind
of electronic beam.
Take evasive action.
Uh-oh, they've got us zeroed in.
Increase power to 1-0-3.
Power increased to 1-0-3.
Hold. Hold on target.
Fire!
I'm afraid that
one did it, doctor.
Fasten your seat belt.
They're on fire, Hadji!
It's no use, doctor.
My controls are frozen.
We'll have to bail out.
Look! Parachutes!
Wow! They jumped. Yippee!
We've got to help them.
Sergeant, isn't there any way
we can get out there?
Yes, we have a car.
Well, come on,
then. Let's get going.
Alert the patrols.
Get them and bring
them to the control room.
Gee, I hope they're
all right, Hadji.
Me too. Can't we
drive any faster?
I'll try,
but these roads are dangerous.
When will you realize
I do not care for
your interference?
If I was fortunate
enough to interfere
with any of your
diabolical schemes,
it was a pleasure.
What I have in mind for
you and Race Bannon
will not be a pleasure.
Please, don't go to any trouble.
Have you wondered
what we do here?
DOCTOR: Naturally.
We are in the final stages
of perfecting the
greatest destructive force
known to man.
It will be made available
to any country or individual
that can pay.
That's madness.
And I have planned
an exquisite end for you.
Calling Simon One.
Calling Simon One.
Simon One here.
Side scanners report car
approaching at high speed.
Send a patrol, and no slip-up.
Yes, sir.
The parachute should have landed
just around the bend.
Keep down in the car.
I'll have a look around.
There's something
spooky about this place.
I agree.
I have a suspicion
we're being watched.
[GRUNTS]
[WHISTLING]
Hey, look. A flying platform.
We've got to follow them.
You're right.
They will lead us to
your dad and Race.
There they go.
Hey. They're
going into that cave.
This is it.
Look down there, Jonny. A door.
I wonder how we can get in.
I guess you just have to say,
"open sesame."
[ALARM RINGS]
Hey, what did I say?
We'd better hide. It's opening.
Hey, here's our chance!
Before it closes!
HADJI: Hurry.
Hey, where are we?
Looks like some
kind of a storeroom.
I wonder what's in those boxes.
Wait a minute. I've got a match.
It says "E-X-P-L-O"
Explosives!
Forget I asked you.
Let's get out of here.
We have to get past that guard.
I've got an idea.
Right on target, Hadji.
Quick, let's get
him into the cart.
Come on, pull!
I'm pulling.
JONNY: Uh He weighs a ton!
HADJI: Uh, is that all?
Hold him up.
I've got him. Let's go.
[MOTOR STARTS]
Uh-oh. We've got company.
At least they're considerate.
It's a nice ride.
Yeah.
Only I'd prefer a
ride around the park.
Hadji, look!
It's Race and your
father. We found them.
Hang on.
I'm gonna try some bad driving.
[MOTOR ACCELERATES]
Look what's coming, doctor.
We have a
hot-rodder in our midst.
RACE: Whoever he is,
he ought to get a ticket.
[BRAKES SCREECH]
Race, look out.
[GRUNTS]
RACE: Nice work, Jonny!
Three with one blow.
I don't know how
you boys got in here,
but let's get out of here fast.
RACE: Right, doctor.
Do you think these outfits
will see us through, Race?
Well, we stand a
better chance, doctor.
You boys okay?
Okay, Dad.
Wait here.
I've got a little
house-wrecking to do.
[MACHINE BEGINS TO WHIR]
Hey, what are you doing there?
Who, me?
Yeah, you.
Oh, me, huh?
What happened
to the lights, Dad?
Race took care of
the generators, Jonny.
Let's hope that slows
them down for a while!
[ALARM RINGING]
Sounds like they're after us.
We've got a break,
doctor. The door's up.
[DOOR ALARM RINGING]
[CAR ENGINE STARTS]
RACE: Hold on to
your hats. Here we go.
Better step on it, Race.
What's up, Jonny?
They're after us.
HADJI: With flying platforms.
Flying platforms?
I'll be He's right.
Doctor, how fast
can those things go?
Too fast for this
car, I'm afraid.
And with far greater
maneuverability.
JONNY: They're
gaining fast, Race.
They're shooting at us.
RACE: Keep your
head down, fellas.
Pretty good shooting.
Hey, Race, they're slowing down.
They're turning off.
RACE: They're
trying to cut us off.
What do we do now, Race?
Try to outfly 'em, Jonny.
They did cut us off.
DOCTOR: Here they come, Race.
[TIRES SQUEAL]
Brace yourselves We're
doing a quick reverse.
[BRAKES SCREECH]
We've got company again, Race.
I know it. Hang on.
[TIRES SQUEAL]
Our island owes you
a great debt, Dr. Quest.
Not at all, Your Excellency.
It will please you to know that
all the criminals
have been captured
and imprisoned.
Too bad Dr. Zin
wasn't with them.
And what about
the installations?
I have ordered the
installations to be destroyed.
RACE: Well, that's
the end of the volcano.
DOCTOR: But you
can bet it's not the end
of Dr. Zin.
And if I know Zin, we'll
be meeting him again.
And if we do,
let's hope we can
spoil his game again.
We're with you, Dad.
Right.
[BARKS]
DOCTOR: That makes it unanimous!
