[THUNDER CLAPS]
[YETI ROARING]
It is the cry of the yeti!
The yeti, they've come
back to the old palace!
[HOWLS]
You summoned me, Raj Guru?
Yes, Mingro.
I hear the villagers
are uneasy tonight.
Yes, they are frightened.
The storm has driven the
yeti out of the high mountains
into the old palace.
That is not good.
If the yeti cut our contact
with the outside world,
it could mean a slow death
to the village and to us.
The Raj Guru will be
surprised to see us.
The who, Dad?
The high priest of Khumjung.
DR. QUEST: Hadji's right, Jonny.
Raj Guru is an
old friend of mine.
That's why I thought
we'd drop in on him
while we're in Nepal.
Oh.
Hey, Hadji, how come you
know so much all of a sudden?
In my school in India,
we learn everything.
DR. QUEST: There's the
old palace of Kali Yuga.
No one's lived there
for over a hundred years.
Fasten your seatbelts.
We're landing.
RACE: Horizontal power off.
Vertical power on.
This is a pleasant
surprise, Dr. Quest,
RAJ GURU: but you have
come at a difficult time.
The yeti have
invaded the old palace
on the mountain.
The yeti, Raj Guru?
Yes, the terrible snow creatures
have come out of the high snows.
RAJ GURU: The natives
are afraid to use the ropeway,
and it is our only
access to civilization.
[GROWLING]
[SCREAMS]
That scream was
no snow creature.
That was a man.
[SCREAMING]
Only a yeti could bring
on such terror, Dr. Quest.
[ROARING]
There must be
something we can do
about those monsters.
You know, I'm for
going on a yeti hunt.
No, Mr. Bannon, it would
only further arouse the yeti.
Kind of scary, huh, Hadji?
Who's scared?
I am.
Me too.
[BOTH LAUGH]
The festival of Mani Rimou
begins tonight.
We will offer up
prayers and sacrifice
to rid ourselves
of the evil beasts.
Mingro, show our visitors
to the cottage of the bells.
Yes, Raj Guru.
[YETI ROARING]
RACE: Doctor, I thought
Sir Edmund Hillary proved
that yeti, or the
abominable snowmen,
don't exist.
Well, that's true, Race,
but sometimes,
native superstitions
are just as powerful
as scientific proof.
I have an uneasy feeling myself.
The gloom of night makes
things seem so unreal.
[YETI ROARING]
[BANG]
Wow! That was close.
DR. QUEST: There's another one.
Under the eave, Race, quick!
[CRASH]
What was that, Dad?
Just a loose rock, Jonny.
It sounded like a
bomb from in here!
[CRASHING]
[BANGING]
It's raining rocks!
They're probably rolling down
from the mountainside.
The yeti might be throwing them.
They are supposed
to be very strong.
This is avalanche country.
You'll get used
to a few little ones.
Let's take a look
around the monastery.
Well, wait, Dad,
we're in our pajamas!
When you're dressed,
you can catch up with us.
[GRUMBLES]
[BARKS]
DR. QUEST: Ordinarily,
this is a very restful place.
RACE: Yes, but not tonight.
Almost ready, Jonny?
Seeing as how you
know everything, Hadj,
what's the scoop
on this yeti stuff?
They're also called
abominable snowmen.
They have feet
that point backward,
scream like a banshee,
and are invisible.
JONNY: Well, if
they're invisible,
how can anybody see a yeti?
HADJI: No one has, yet-i.
Aw, come on!
[BARKS]
Hey, what do you
suppose he's after?
Something he saw
through the window.
Maybe a rabbit.
Bandit! Here, Bandit!
Jonny, look. Tracks!
JONNY: Wow, look
at the size of them.
I bet it's a yeti!
You'd better go tell your dad.
I'd better go find my dog!
[BARKING]
There he goes across
the ropeway, Jonny!
[BARKING]
[YELPS]
[GROWLS]
[BANGING]
[RUMBLING]
[WHIMPERS]
Well, that was close.
Let's go.
[BARKING]
[FESTIVE DRUMMING]
I am sorry we could not wait
for Mr. Bannon and the boys,
but the great god, Buddha,
directs we start our
festivals before dawn.
I'm sure it's wise to
follow Buddha's orders,
especially with so much
terror abroad in your mountains.
HADJI: This palace
must have 900 rooms!
917. I counted them,
and you had to be in
the last room, Bandit.
[WHIMPERS]
[GROWLS]
What is it, boy?
He must have heard something.
I don't see anything.
Jonny, look!
It's a yeti!
Carrying a lamp.
[BANDIT SNARLS]
JONNY: Quiet, boy!
HADJI: Hey, what's he doing?
He's a fake!
He's better looking
with the head on.
Look, there's more of them.
Gosh, and there's some coming in
over on the other side too!
Looks like a yeti convention.
Do you have our orders?
Yes, we are to
continue our terror
until the Raj Guru is destroyed!
YETI BOSS: Tonight,
shoot flaming projectiles.
No wonder the Raj Guru
has been having trouble.
Ah ah ah-ah-ah!
Jonny, don't tell me
you're going to sneeze?
I guess I'm allergic to yetis,
even phony ones.
Do you plan to set
fire to the village?
Yes, and with their
leader destroyed,
our forces can
take over this area,
but you may need your guns.
Check them, then
take your positions.
I'm glad you didn't sneeze!
Me too.
It would've meant curtains!
[SNEEZES]
There's someone up
there on the balcony.
Get them!
[GUNSHOTS]
Oh, boy! That did it!
Let's get out of here!
[FIREWORKS EXPLODING]
The boys aren't in the
monastery compound, doctor.
I've looked every place.
Maybe they've gone
down to the village.
Raj Guru, will you excuse us?
We'd better try to find them.
But of course.
HADJI: This way, Jonny!
JONNY: Right behind you!
[BARKING]
Come on, Bandit!
Where to now, Hadj?
No place to go but down.
[GUNSHOTS]
YETI BOSS: There they are!
Okay, let's go, then!
[BARKING]
Come on, boy!
All set?
Fire one!
[BARKING AND WHIMPERING]
Fire two!
Fire three!
[GUNSHOTS]
We can't stay here for long.
Let's go!
[THUDDING]
[SHOUTING]
Hey, Hadji, look! By the wall!
Hop in, Hadj!
[SHOUTING]
[MUTTERING]
YETI BOSS: You four,
carry out the orders.
Start firing the
flaming projectiles.
[STARTING TO SNEEZE]
You other three, follow me.
We will take care
of those intruders.
Did you find the
boys, Dr. Quest?
No, they're not in the village.
Nobody's seen them.
This isn't like Jonny or Hadji.
Fire!
[EXPLODING]
What's that?
RAJ GURU: I believe
the lamas are starting
the fireworks display.
[CRASH]
This is not the
work of the lamas!
Those fire balls are
coming from the old palace!
Continue firing!
The yeti must be behind this.
No, another enemy, Dr. Quest,
intent on destroying me.
You don't seem too worried.
RAJ GURU: I do
not destroy easily.
That is the least of my worries.
We had best move out of here.
RACE: Yeah, and we'd
better stop this attack too.
They could not have gone far.
Search every corner!
[CLANGING]
[YELPING]
I will shoot the animal!
[CLANG]
Excuse me!
I have one of them!
So sorry.
YETI BOSS: Shoot!
Kill them, kill them!
They must not escape!
[GUNSHOTS]
JONNY: Strike one!
Strike two!
Strike three!
[CLANG]
You're out!
Uh-oh!
Ah! I have trapped one of them.
Maybe this oil will
slow him up a little.
[POPS]
[POPS]
I have you now!
[SCREAMING AND SHOUTING]
[SCREAMS]
Gosh!
Now to find Hadji and Bandit.
I hope Hadji and Bandit made it.
[WHIMPERS]
[WHIMPERING]
[JAR SMASHES]
[YELPS]
[WHIMPERING]
Bombs away!
[BARKING]
I think Dr. Quest would
be interested in this mask.
Exhibit A.
Come on, Bandit,
let's go find Jonny.
[BARKING]
I hope this bridge will hold us!
RAJ GURU: It has been here
for many years, Mr. Bannon,
and will be for many more.
Headlights on the ropeway!
It's the Raj Guru's jeep!
Fire at the ropeway
in front of it!
[EXPLOSION]
RACE: Man, those
guys play rough!
DR. QUEST: The ropes
won't last long in this fire.
Right. We can't stay here.
We made it!
Uh-oh, more trouble up ahead.
RACE: Hang on!
[BANG]
[SCREAMS]
[THUD]
Now let's find the boys.
[SCREAMS]
[GUNSHOTS]
[GONG CLANGS]
Boy, what a spot
we picked to hide!
Whoo-wee!
After this, even a dinner
bell won't sound good.
I wish this thing would
turn into a flying saucer,
and we could fly away.
A flying saucer!
Hey, great idea, Hadj.
Now, if we could
just cut that rope
[SCREAMS]
[CLANG]
Yippee! Ride 'em cowboy!
Stop them. They are escaping!
[SCREAMING]
JONNY: Hang on!
HADJI: Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Hang on, he says!
Hey, this is fun!
Oh, sure.
It helps get the
kinks out of a guy!
RACE: Dr. Quest,
look what's coming.
Thank goodness! The boys.
Greetings from space
ship number three.
I hope you boys
have a good excuse.
Well, I'll try to
think of one, Dad.
HADJI: Those abominable snowmen
are just plain
abominable men, sir.
I took this off of one of them.
Dried antelope hide.
A do-it-yourself yeti scalp.
How many do you
think are up there?
Well, there were
about 12 of them.
You can scratch at
least three off that list.
Say, nine.
That makes the
odds about right, sir.
Let's take a look.
It seems pretty quiet.
Let's go.
It looks like they
left in great haste.
There are enough yeti
outfits and supplies here
to equip a small army.
RACE: Dr.Quest
Would you and Raj Guru
step out here on the balcony?
DOCTOR: Trouble, Race?
RACE: No, sir, not now,
but someone's been
playing pretty rough.
Looks like they've
all been wiped out
by some tremendous force.
A terrible justice
has been done here.
I wonder by whom?
Dad! Hey, Dad!
Look, tracks!
And they lead up the hill.
There's something
up on that ridge!
What is it, Jonny?
JONNY: I don't know.
[ROARING]
What would you
call that, Dr. Quest?
I see it,
but I hardly dare believe it.
You can believe it, Dr. Quest.
The yeti have taken
vengeance into their own hands.
[ROARING]
