Mate, look.

The Isle of Coruscant.

It's a sailor's secret.

It's the perfect place to pick up some food and water.

I don't know.

I've never been one for secrets.

Nor have I, dammit.

Careful, Rongar!

This is a one -of -a -kind instrument.

Why, this invention could change worldwide communications.

Oh, I didn't mean to make you nervous.

You're doing just fine.

Grongar, drop anchor.

Hard to find good help these days, huh?

Interesting doodad for him.

Oh, yes. Yes, quite.

You see, with this, I capture the power of the sun to send a beam of precisely

controlled light to a far land.

All the world will use this to send messages back and forth.

Encode.

Holy moly!

Apparently I haven't quite calibrated the direction ratio, but no harm done.

He turns me into a one -man barbecue. It's no harm done?

Darn it!

Darn it! Off my beamer! Immediately!

Oh, no!

Seems like Dermot's not too impressed with your invention, Peruse.

My.

Dirtily packed the powerful wall, doesn't it?

All right, let's see what damage we've done.

German senses someone coming.

Gene, I sense they're already here.

Come on.

Gene, I... Hold that thought, guys.

I am Admiral Azul, protector of Korusha.

Are you the captain of that vessel in our bay? I am.

And these are my shipmates.

My name is Thinbat.

Thinbat? Your reputation as a great sailor precedes you.

So then you'll believe me when I offer my sincere apologies for the damage we

inflicted upon your beautiful forest.

You mean our ancient and revered forest, where members of the royal family have

been buried for generations.

Accidents happen.

Actually, I'm very intrigued and fascinated by the power of your new

Weapon?

Well, I suppose it could be used that way, but I could never build weapons.

You are its creator.

This is for Ruth.

I am most impressed with your ingenuity.

So impressed that I would like to invite you all to an afternoon of festivities

honoring our late king.

You do realize we're being held captive, don't you?

Where's your sense of adventure?

You seem to be in charge here, Azul.

Are your king and queen unable to attend?

You are unaware of our tragedy.

The strife I spoke of earlier?

Both our leaders were killed by raiding Marzat.

Terrible, demonic, inhuman warriors of living metal.

The warlike Morzaks were sent upon us by our ancient enemies in the island of

Marzos.

And yet, although we lost our king and queen, the last shining gem of Corusar

still gives us strength.

Princess Lila.

Well, may I have the chance to look upon this living gem? She will join us

shortly.

What do you mean by dragging that great ugly metal and glass contraption into

the palace storeroom?

I banged my head on the thing twice trying to get out of its way.

Simbad, uh, Feroz, friends.

The Grand Vizier, Paz.

Simbad, come.

Hey, Feroz, what's he talking about?

Hello?

Admiral Azul, it sounded like your vizier was talking about my invention.

Yes.

I couldn't leave such an invaluable weapon aboard your ship where Marzo's

raiders might claim it.

I had it taken to the palace.

For its protection, of course.

We appreciate your concern for its safety, Admiral. As well as the help you

surely give us when it's time to return it to the ship.

My men are at your disposal.

You must have very big bones.

So, Firouz.

We'd be honored if you'd consider our palace your temporary headquarters.

It sounds ideal.

But my friends and I... All make obeisance.

Princess Lala, future queen of Corozar.

Welcome, travelers, to Corozar.

Your Majesty.

I am Captain Sinbad.

Your every wish is my command.

Some wine, Your Majesty?

Yes.

If it was served to me by Firuz.

Shall we sit?

I would love to take part in any experiments you wish to pursue here.

That would be... interesting.

And that wasn't it.

That's an idea.

Do these people have an invitation?

Stand back!

I'm warning you!

She's retreating.

They disappeared, as before.

They vanish?

How did you manage to drive them off, Eros?

Higher reasoning.

I reasoned that a dark cloud might blind them.

Blind, they might retreat.

If only countries were ruled by such genius.

Actually, I've always thought that a kingdom scientifically run...

It could change the world.

After the Marzaks killed our king and queen, they simply disappeared just like

today. Sorcery is at work. They didn't just disappear today.

They retreated somewhere.

My warrior, Sion, he drove the devils away.

These creatures are bold and bad. They must have spied upon us.

They watched us unload Veruz's invention and they came here to steal it. Our

only means of defense.

Defense?

Our wealthy enemies from Marzos are taunting us. This attack was merely a

forerunner of what's to come.

They'll send an entire army of these creatures next.

What a horrible thought.

Their science is too much for us.

My people, our people are doomed.

Unless we have help.

Veruz. Without your genius, my kingdom will fall.

Please, stay with us.

We need a Minister of Science to save us.

I... Well, point of fact... I... Minister of Science.

With all due respect, Your Majesty,

Farouk may not choose to stay.

Well... Perhaps just for a little while?

Well, you're all invited to remain.

I'm afraid that would be impossible.

Well, we really can't let you leave until our conflict with the island of

Marazos is settled. It would be far too dangerous for you and your crew to sail

into war -torn waters.

They could capture you and use you as hostages.

We can't leave Farooz like this.

Right.

Farooz, I want you to go with me back to the ship.

But these people need my help.

They need the help of my science.

Farooz, it's not your war.

They may act a little strange, but think of the heartache they've been through.

Poor princess.

Looking both her mother and her father, she didn't seem overly heartbroken to

me.

For Ruth, something is very wrong here.

For once, for Ruth, he's right.

The spirits tell me of danger.

Spirits are vindictive creatures.

They've always disliked me.

The science seeks to make magicians of us all.

No. No, that's not it. Not at all. In the future.

Magic will retreat to the shadows.

Science and reason will rule.

Reason. And for root.

I didn't say that.

Surely you can see that what I'm trying to do here is noble.

Kurosawa is the beginning of a benevolent empire.

An empire that will peacefully bring about the rule of science to the entire

world. Listen, old friend.

Look, please.

Don't spoil the ceremony.

I don't trust your Princess Delilah, Feroz.

Sinbad, she needs me.

The entire kingdom needs him.

Do you outlanders have some doubts about his genius?

Not at all, Your Majesty.

I just want to make sure he'll be happy here after we depart.

I believe with all my heart that this man will save Corithar from the threat

Marza.

Well? In that case, we look forward to the ceremony.

Take Dubai and set sail for Mars Earth tonight.

It lies but ten leagues to the north.

Make sure no one sees you.

Martha?

What's in Martha?

That's what I'd like you to find out.

Perhaps you'd allow me to offer you a good luck kiss before the swearing in.

To our future?

That reminds me.

If you have the time before the ceremony, would you look at these plans

drawn up of your Ruby Beamer?

I'm afraid our engineers are not in your league.

If there are any corrections... Indeed, they've made a hash of it.

It's all wrong. It's all wrong.

But my princess...

We already have a working model here in the palace.

We will need many more if we are to defend ourselves from Marzoc.

Of course.

It's just that... Beamer was never intended for war.

But you saw what happened with the Marzocs.

They will destroy us unless we have such weapons.

We are proud of you, Feroz.

We need you.

I need you.

I'll change the diagrams. I'll supervise the construction myself.

I really appreciate all this.

You know, when all this is over...

Tired of the ceremony?

A bit too rich for my blood. We've got a trip to take.

Well, not without Sinbad, we don't. Yeah, that's his idea. He wants us to go

Mars and do a little bit of finding. Oh, sounds risky.

What are we waiting for?

Not the greatest accommodation.

Dinner, Ragnar?

Let's hope it's better than the room.

They're using Farooz with some sort of pawn, Ragnar.

We have to make him see that.

You're not really going to eat that stuff, are you?

They serve us horse meat.

They throw us in this flea pit.

You get the feeling we're really not welcome here?

I'm going to skip my dinner tonight.

Go have a chat with Feroz instead.

Feel like a stroll?

Enjoy your meal, gentlemen.

Ruth?

Where is he?

In there.

I know about these things. Let me bandage him.

A little pen to him, my minister.

Hey, our comrade.

What is all this?

Sinbad. This man has news from the lands of the north.

I slipped into Marathon to scout.

They're planning to attack us like before.

The what? Ruby Beamer.

They're raising a great navy to attack Corithar. What exactly did you see? Are

you blind?

This man is badly injured. He nearly lost his life behind enemy lines.

Bruce, all Corithar turns to you now for strength.

Marthos people are barbarians.

I can't allow the good citizens of Khorasar to be exterminated.

We will protect Khorasar.

We will arm ourselves and all our able -bodied men. We will attack Marthos

before they can attack us. As you say, Minister Farouk.

I hereby declare a state of war.

It's a ruse.

Let it be warm.

Melvin.

Lord Minister.

These are the posts of Marzos.

Feroz, war is something not to be taken lightly.

Let me set sail and confirm Morab's report.

Are you calling our agent a liar?

Feroz, Sinbad is beginning to annoy me.

Remove yourself, sailor. You're distracting my lord minister.

Feroz, listen to me.

Sinbad, leave us.

But Feroz, these people have put their faith in me. I can't let them down.

I'll understand if you don't want to stay and fight.

Perhaps it would be a good idea if you and your crew left the island by

We will assure you safe passage.

I bet.

Let's leave quietly for Feruzzi.

Excellent performance, Morov.

Thank you.

Where were you hiding when you were supposed to be in Mars?

Spindle Street, Bravo.

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed yourself before the end.

The end of what?

As the sage said, dead men tell no tales.

Dispose of him.

He'll be declared a hero tomorrow.

Now I must give some thought about the Sinbad problem.

He makes me nervous.

I seem too fast to be looking over my shoulder at every time.

Seems more uptight of his wounds after all.

Too much for bravery.

We must tell Sinbad what we found before we tell Feruz.

May I ask where you have been and where you are going?

You may ask, but we don't have to answer.

Get out of our way.

Rumor has it you've been to Marzos.

You should never listen to rumors.

Or don't you know that?

You are under arrest for fraternizing with the enemy.

There's no enemy there, and you know it.

Sides appear to be balanced.

Drop your weapons or die.

March the fools to the dungeon.

Yes, no, maybe.

Perhaps a vapor that paralyzes the nerve.

So this is how you use your talents now, Feroze.

You're waiting for me to invent the door, Sinbad?

I know.

Somebody beat you to it.

What is all this?

Could you pass me that flask?

You could have just blown up this entire room.

Well, you may just blow up an entire kingdom.

I serve my princess, who at least appreciates me.

Your princess is using you, Feroze.

She's not interested in your mind.

Just your ability to create weapons.

I never thought I'd see the day when Sinbad would be jealous of a friend.

They killed Mara Peruth.

This whole spy mission was a lie.

I can understand your anger.

For the first time, people are looking at me to be the hero, not you.

They turn to me for protection, not you. Peruth?

Look at me.

Have I ever lied to you?

Stop it. You're confusing me.

We found the quiet man lurking outside.

Take them safely to their chambers.

Sinbad, you have no idea what's going on here.

The fate of these people is in my hands.

What kept you, little brother?

I was trying to skip breakfast.

Well, Sinbad, you were right about Marzoth.

They're wealthy indeed, but they have no interest in this little kingdom. We

checked the harbor.

No battleships, no preparations for war.

Their idea of mortal combat is arguing over who picks up a check.

When I talked to them, no one had ever heard of the Marzak. An old lie's tale

for sure.

Why doesn't that surprise me?

Nobody I talked to heard of Marzak's either. The whole story's a lie.

We've got to get to Peruz and stop this war.

Somehow I don't think the guards outside will play along.

We need a distraction.

Where's Dermot?

He's safe.

On the ship.

BOOKY TO DEATH!

It works, yes.

How much longer must we put up with this waffling fool?

Once Feroz has helped us capture Marzos, we'll have learned how to use his

weaponry. Then I'll be king of both lands, and you will be my queen.

What about Feroz?

He will join his friends in bed and die.

It gets worse and worse.

Feroze seems gripped by madness.

I've seen this madness before.

They'll squander the kingdom's treasure, all of its people's wealth, on weapons.

Well, I think it's time we borrowed Feroze for a little while. Get him away

Zuul and our poisonous princess.

I don't think you'll have that opportunity, Sinbad.

Take them!

More guards!

Go, Maeve! We'll hold them here as long as we can.

Don't get through!

Okay!

recruited by the leaders in Marzoth.

A traitor.

Made.

That doesn't make any sense.

My friend, war can turn anyone into an animal.

Not yet, Sinbad.

first dust of your grave, Simbad.

Belden, take this sailor and his cronies to the dungeon without a flaw.

My pleasure.

Dermot, get out before they catch you, too.

Well, look who decided to join us.

It's a nightmare this time of year, isn't it?

Did you

hear

that hit bottom?

No.

What is that?

Someplace I don't want to end up.

Can you do anything about these chains, Maeve?

Erasa, guardian of iron, reduce the power of these chains.

Well, I'm impressed.

It must be, you know, the sleep gas that they used on me.

My head aches. I can't concentrate, really.

You do that, Maeve? I don't think so.

I did.

Your feathered friend, Orpheus.

I pulled the release lever.

But I thought... I was crazy?

No.

That was an ax. Those old wouldn't kill me, too.

Come on, then. Come along, do.

Quickly.

Maeve?

Remind me to give Dermot a little snack before dinner.

Come on now.

I'm afraid that war is inevitable, my young friends.

You have to leave here or die with the rest of us.

I won't leave Firuz.

Even Firuz can't put out the Fusi, has he?

Where does this go?

Oh, you can't.

Those are collapsed tunnels that used to lead to the old palace.

The more that.

I thought so.

These passages.

They lead outside.

Yes, indeed.

Azul discovered these remnants from a time long gone in Corozar.

When our leaders practiced the sciences of the tragic Atlantis. He

couldn't reproduce more of them.

The art of this machinery is beyond us.

Machines?

Originally designed to defend.

Azul uses them to attack.

The first to die were our king and our queen.

The princess is only their niece.

She and Azul want to rule Karaza.

Your friend happening along with his invention just hastened Azul's plans a

Do you know how to activate these things?

They respond to rays emitted from a tiny machine.

Hidden. In an amulet.

A dual amulet.

I can't believe that Maeve and the others would betray me.

I won't believe it.

I want to see them.

Now. Immediately.

But, Farouk. I want to see my friend. But, of course, without delay.

You're probably right, Farouk.

This is probably all a misunderstanding.

My friends would never betray me.

Exactly.

We're all tense, Ruth.

Nervous over the prospect of war.

Time for the sailor to die. We'll have to find him first.

What? The sailors. All of them. They're gone.

Gone, but not forgotten, I hope.

You. Me!

Now out of our way.

We're going to get through.

You'll have to get through me first.

All right.

You and me.

Delighted!

Oh, Maroon.

I feel so all alone.

Only Finbad and my friends really care about me.

I care, Farouk.

My love.

pay for this show of insolence?

You're looking for this?

Us and I have programmed it all you day.

A man who believes he is so

wise that he does not need to know himself, he knows nothing at all.

No! Have you gone mad?

Here,

I think it's broke.

Well, I guess power isn't all it's cracked up to be. Stand still. We have

weapons. We don't need you anymore.

Ruth.

Did I neglect to tell you that Corazarian mothers teach their daughters

throwing? It keeps the men in line.

Actually, you neglected to tell me that point, but I, um... I do understand

women's rights.

Oh, you know, oh, great Farouk, a long sea voyage will cure all your ill.

Point of fact, you're absolutely right.

How are

you

feeling?

Troubled by what I almost created.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

If you'd have stayed, they would have made you king.

Fortunately, Puzz will make a better king than I would.

I'm not cut out to be a politician.

Cruz, there's nothing wrong with your politics.

Only the warmongers are misled you.

The sad fate of many leaders.

True.

Let's just say I'm glad to return to what I do best.

Being a simple man of science.

And an invaluable member of life.

Thank you.
