Jumba I suppose we owe you an explanation, Jackie. You've heard of the Sutras of Raktajiba, yes?
Only at your museum. You said they were just a legend.
I lied. You see, the Sutras do very much exist. [Holds Jackie's filling up under a magnifying glass, revealing inscriptions]
In my filling!
Magnificent, are they not? A 3000 word incantation, painstakingly inscribed by skilled sorcerers onto a piece of silver no larger than a grain of basmati rice.
Legend foretells that when the Sutras are returned to the Ganges, the river will dry up.
That would be- So, those thieves who have been after me, you've been trying to stop them!
Well, no. Actually, they've been trying to stop us. They are not truly thieves, you see. They are Disciples of Mohajah.
Who?
Oh, a do-gooder-mystic. A psychic. Claims his mission is to protect India from evil magic.
Mohajah suspected I was in possession of the Sutras, and planning to transport them here to India.
But none of us could carry the Sutras without the Mohajah knowing it; that mind reading power of his... real nuisance.
So you had to find a courier who did not know he was carrying the Sutras. Me.
We so appreciate your help, Jackie.
But that means you want to dry up the Ganges River! Why?
Have you no sense of vision man? Do you not realize what treasures lie on the riverbed? Centuries worth of artifacts; silver, gold, riches beyond measure, there for the taking!
Millions of people depend upon the river for farming, and travel, and- Lives will be destroyed!
Our Jackie's a bit of a sentimentalist. So sweet! But really, one must have priorities. We're talking about the archaeological event of the millennium. If a few people must be inconvenienced... [shrug]
You are bad people! All of you!
Yes, soon to be very rich people!
