Tintin in Tibet - Part 1

What a glorious holiday, eh, Snowy?

Snowy?

Come on... we'll head back to the hotel.

I'm hungry as a bear.

Hello Captain. Did you have a nice day?

Marvelous, thanks.

You need some fresh air.

How about going on a hike with me tomorrow?

No, thanks. That's not my idea of a vacation.

...and on the news today: A passenger flight en route to Katmandu

has crashed in the Himalayan mountains.

A search plane spotted the wreckage of the aircraft yesterday.

in a remote and dangerous area...

Nobody is going to survive that!

Poor souls!

I'm going up for a quick shower. Why don't you set up the chessboard?

Sure! If you're prepared to lose this time.

She's in danger. What should I do?

Protect her with my knight? No! That'd leave my bishop vulnerable.

I can barely keep my eyes open.

Check!

Check?

Now, how do I save my queen?

She's gonna have to fight a rearguard action.

I'll launch a flank attack with my bishop.

The enemy will cover his castle with a pawn,

and I'll have to sacrifice the bishop.

But he won't be sacrificed in vain.

An eye for an eye. I'll take his castle...

Tintin!

Chang!

Thundering typhoons, Tintin!

Sorry, sorry everybody!

Sorry, Captain. I just had the most awful dream

It was about my friend, Chang.

He'd been in a plane crash and was calling out to me for help.

You were dreaming about that crash on the news.

Maybe.

You're just overtired. Go to bed.

- You'll feel better in the morning. - OK.

'Night, Captain.

'Morning, landlubber.

What's wrong?

I didn't sleep very well.

More nightmares?

Yes.

Well, maybe this letter will cheer you up.

It came for you this morning.

I wonder who it's from.

- Chang! - Now what?

It's Chang! He's coming here to visit his uncle in Katmandu.

He said he'd phone us from there.

Katmandu?

Wasn't that the flight path of that plane?

"There were 6 crew members and a delegation of scientists.

Travelling with the scientist and also missing is...

A young Chinese boy.

Chang! My poor friend, Chang!

No! I don't believe it!

I know why I had those dreams.

Chang's alive! He's calling for help!

Tintin...

No! I know what you're gonna say,

but those dreams are no coincidence, Captain.

Wait! Where are you going?

Katmandu.

Tintin, this is crazy.

You can't go halfway around the world on a dream!

I'm going, Captain and that's that.

Fine. You go then. But don't bother

asking me, because the answer's no!

We hope you enjoy your stay in Katmandu.

Thank you.

OK, Chang's uncle has a shop around here somewhere.

You don't know where you're going?

I know it's around here somewhere. I'm just not sure where?

This is ridiculous!

You're walking around like a sleepwalker with his eyes shut.

Look out!

Watch where you're going, you bumbling blob!

Met your match, Captain?

Is good to eat? Like candy?

Thank you!

Hot! Hot!

My mouth on fire!

Mr Cheng Li-Kin?

Yes?

My name is Tintin, I'm a friend of Chang's.

Please come in. Chang will be here shortly.

Chang's here?

My son, Chang Lin-Yee.

I'm afraid there's been a mixup, sir.

I'm looking for Chang Chon-Chen.

My nephew...

died in plane crash 2 days ago.

Sir, I think he's still alive.

Impossible, young man.

I got a letter from police.

Well, I don't believe it, and that's why I'm here.

I need to find a Sherpa who will guide me to the crash side.

There is only one who can do it.

But I know what he will say.

No!

Is too dangerous, Sahib.

I take you both up there and 3 more lives will be lost.

Ours!

Listen to reason, Tintin.

You're right. I can't risk anyone else's life.

At last you're talking sense.

I'll go alone.

OK, Snowy, let's go.

Ahoy, landlubber!

Don't say anything. I'm going whether you like it or not.

He is good friend.

That he is.

Too hot...

Need a rest...

Calculus?

What are you doing here?

It seems I've lost my umbrella.

Why, I've got plenty.

Don't be silly. It's a hot pepper.

Checkmate!

Sahib, OK?

He want me to carry his pack?

I don't want you to carry my pack.

I'll carry my own pack, thanks!

I'll just have to get used to the altitude.

I don't need anybody else to carry my pack.

Shouldn't be too difficult.

Nothing to it.

Captain! Wrong bridge!

We're supposed to cross at the next one!

I knew that! Why... I could cross this bridge blind-folded.

Oops..! Well, maybe not!

Don't do it, Snowy.

Go ahead.

No, Snowy. It's bad.

Be quiet.

Try it!

Where's Snowy?

What's wrong?

No, Snowy! Look out!

Snowy!

Hang on! I'm coming!

Hang on!

Got ya!

C'mon, Snowy, let's go.

We must be careful, Sahib.

There are many dangers ahead.

I know there are, Tharkey, but we can't give up now.

What is this, Tharkey?

It is chorten. It holds the ashes of great llamas.

Pretty neat, huh, Captain?

Stop, Sahib.

- No pass chorten on right side! - What?

Do as they say

or the spirits will be angry.

Left, right...

What's the difference?

Left, Sahib!

Can't do that now!

I'm trying!

What's this?

It's tsampa: cooked barley meal

with tea and butter.

What was that?

It was Yeti.

The Abominable Snowman?

Nonsense! It was just the wind.

No, Sahib. That was no wind.

Yeti is very bad.

He eats the eyes and hands of men.

We go back now, yes?

No. Whatever it was, we're not going back.

I've got a friend up there who needs me.

Snowy? What is it, boy?

Now you believe?

We go back!

Yeti will eat us!

I'm tired of hearing about this Yeti.

I keep telling you there's no such thing!

Then how do you explain these prints?

Easy! It's a...

It's a bear walking on its hind legs.

No bear, Sahib. Yeti.

Balderdash!

And I'll prove it once and for all.

C'mon down, you flea-bitten Cro-Magnon!

Quiet, Sahib. You'll cause an avalanche!

I'm waiting, you overgrown baboon!

Poltroon!

Toady!

Run!

Filibuster! Megalomaniac!

Blistering barnacles!

Oh, no!

The porters have gone.

We must go back! It's too dangerous to go on alone.

No. We'll each take another pack.

I can't give up on Chang.

There!

I wonder if Chang bought this for his cousin.

Why did you have to say that?

The mountains are cruel, Sahib. They keep those they take.

We can set up camp in there.

Tomorrow we go back. Sahib?

Sahib!

Let him go. He needs some time alone.

If Chang survived, he would've looked for shelter.

A crack in the rocks? A cave?

Bingo!

It's OK, Snowy. It's just the wind.

What?!

Chang!

He's alive! I knew it!

Oh, no! It's snowing!

Any sign of them?

No, Sahib, and there's nothing we can do until the snow stops.

Except pray he found shelter.

Stay close, Snowy.

This is hopeless. We shouldn't have left the cave.

Let's go back.

Oh, no! Our tracks are covered up already!

What is it, Snowy?

Captain!

He can't hear us.

Tharkey?

Tintin will be OK, won't he?

It's hard to survive a storm in these mountains without shelter.

This storm has lasted for hours.

Listen!

That's Snowy!

We must be careful, Sahib.

Over there!

Good boy, Snowy. Where's Tintin?

Fallen in the crevice!

Tintin..!

Lower me in.

Ready?

Go!

Don't drop me, Sahib.

Get going!

- Captain! - Not now, I'm busy.

What are you doing?

The rope!

Sorry about that, Tharkey.

Poor Snowy. You're frozen.

How did you get out of there, Sahib?

Well, I thought I was a goner.

It was a sheer drop straight down.

The soft snow must have broken my fall. I don't remember landing.

When I came to, I thought I was trapped.

But the bottom of the crevice sloped up,

and I followed it along until I find a place to climb out.

- You were lucky. - It is not wise to wander in a storm.

But I was following you, Captain.

- And I thought. - You couldn't have been.

I never left the plane.

It wasn't me, Sahib.

The Yeti!

We must leave immediately. He knows where we are.

But what about Chang?

He is gone, Sahib.

No! I found a small cave back there.

Chang's name was carved on a rock.

I'm more convinced than ever.

Chang's alive!

Tomorrow we search for Chang.

But now we go back to the plane.

I don't know where you are, Chang, but I'll find you.

I promise.
