01:07How does it feel to be the guest of honor at such a splendid event, Your Highness?
01:12It is marvelous, Mandrake!
01:14We are so pleased the size and position is taking place here, on earth this year!
01:18Especially that it's in beautiful Monte Carlo!
01:22The royal family has offered me and my staff accommodations at the palace.
01:27Is the palace like a castle?
01:29Yes, Kichit, but much less draftee.
01:32This exhibition is remarkable.
01:35Brilliant minds from all over the universe creating great scientific achievements.
01:40Oui, it is a momentous occasion.
01:43Of course, even Laura's troublesome planets like Brutalia have sent representatives.
01:49What is this? An empty exhibit?
01:54Unfortunately, not all our exhibitors have shown up as yet.
01:58Bandrake!
02:00For the Duke of Montaigne, Flash Gordon and his son Rick.
02:04A pleasure to meet you, Your Highness.
02:07How do you do? Have you seen our exhibit, Your Highness?
02:11It's the Gripjob, a vehicle designed to burrow under the core of the earth.
02:16Most impressive, Rick.
02:18Kishin, Zuffy and I are here for the International Magicians Convention down the street.
02:23I'm entering the Junior Magicians Competition. I want to win first prize.
02:35Well, if there is any way I can be of assistance during your stay in Monaco, please let me know.
02:41Thank you, Your Highness.
02:43You bet we will.
02:52And now, without ever touching any of the balls, I will demonstrate the newest technique in juggling.
02:58And for my exciting conclusion, a bouncing ball routine with no hands.
03:08Well, what do you think, Mandrake? Do you think I can win?
03:23To win the competition, you might need a little something extra. More unusual.
03:34Will you excuse me, Zuffy? The secret I'm going to share with Kishin is for his eyes only.
03:42You wait there, Zuffy.
03:43Kishin, I think you're mature enough to learn a great secret.
03:48A secret that has been guarded by Master Magicians for many, many years.
03:52You must swear on your honor that you never breathe a word about how this trick is done.
03:57Do I have your word?
03:58I give you my word.
03:59Watch carefully, Kishin.
04:00How did you do that?
04:15It's an ancient Egyptian secret from the days of the Pharaohs that enables the mind to influence physical objects.
04:21Kishin, this bit of magic will be a sacred gift to you.
04:26But never forget your oath of secrecy.
04:44Help! Someone help!
04:46We're safe now.
04:47Jedha, help him into the boat.
04:51Thank you all very much.
04:54My name is Akimbo.
04:56I came from the planet Dahar to attend the Intergalactic Science Exposition.
05:03Nice to meet you, Akimbo.
05:05My name's Rick.
05:06Are you a scientist?
05:08Yes.
05:09I am grateful for your help.
05:35I am grateful for your help.
05:40Strange guy.
05:50You lose again, brutan.
05:52If I find out that machine is rigged, I'll destroy you and everybody else here.
06:02Excuse me.
06:03Is this where the Intergalactic Science Exposition is being held?
06:06Heavens no.
06:08This is a casino.
06:09The Science Expo is in the convention hall next door.
06:17Put it all on the same number again.
06:22You lose again.
06:24A fool and his money are soon parted.
06:26You call me a fool?
06:27I say you are a thief.
06:28Please, stop your fighting.
06:29It isn't worth it.
06:30What's it to you?
06:31I just thought I'd point out that money isn't all that important.
06:32Are you nuts?
06:33You're messing up my machine.
06:34Move it.
06:35Says who, you overgrown circus regent?
06:36Stop.
06:37Please, no violence in the casino.
06:38Stop.
06:39You're messing up my machine.
06:40Move it.
06:41Says who, you overgrown circus regent?
06:43Stop.
06:44Please, no violence in the casino.
06:45Stop it.
06:46Oh, yeah?
06:47Maybe you'd like a free trip to Mars.
06:48Stop.
06:49Everybody stop.
06:50Stay out of this, you...
06:51You...
06:52Oh, yeah?
06:53Maybe you'd like a free trip to Mars.
06:54Stop.
06:55Everybody stop.
06:56Stay out of this, you...
06:57How...
07:25How...
07:26How did you do that?
07:28Do not let go of me, unless you want to end up like everyone else.
07:31Do not be afraid. They are fine.
07:34And they will not be aware of what is happening.
07:36I used my latest invention, the time freezer.
07:40To stop time.
07:42Time freezer? You stop time?
07:45Yes.
07:56That's quite a gadget you've got there.
07:59What did you say your name was?
08:01Akimbo. Akimbo of the heart.
08:04You can call me Brutan.
08:07We're gonna be good friends.
08:11Mind if I take a look at that gizmo of yours?
08:16I must take it to the science exposition for display.
08:20Of course. Let me escort you there.
08:24I can show you my exhibit as well.
08:28We scientists on Brutalia have developed
08:31a highly technical form of super space travel.
08:35Extremely advantageous in wartime.
08:38Wartime?
08:40As well as for more peaceful uses.
08:43Come inside and I'll show you how it works.
08:47Here. Let me hold that for you.
08:51Only for a second, Brutan.
08:53I must not lose the time freezer.
08:56If it were to fall into the wrong hands.
08:59I understand completely, my friend.
09:07Brutan, let me out of here.
09:09Of course, my friend.
09:12I'm having a small problem with the hatch.
09:15Let me out of here.
09:16I'll have you out of there in no time at all.
09:27Come on. We don't want to miss Gashin.
09:29All right. I want to see him too.
09:31Every youngster accepted to compete here has gone through arduous training with a magical master.
09:41The moment we've been waiting for has arrived.
09:45Let the contest begin.
10:04Not very original.
10:05I agree.
10:06But the lad is quite proficient all the same.
10:08I agree.
10:09But the lad is quite proficient all the same.
10:12I agree.
10:13I agree.
10:14I agree.
10:15I agree.
10:16Really?
10:17I agree.
10:18I agree.
10:19I agree.
10:24All for the taking.
10:33All for me alone.
10:36Ha, ha, ha, ha! All for the taking. All for me alone.
10:42But you won't miss this, will you?
11:00This is more like it. I will have it all.
11:04Oh!
11:06Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
11:28When does Kashin go on? Precisely now.
11:32Ladies and gentlemen, please direct your attention to the collection of locked items on the stage. Watch carefully, for you will not believe your eyes.
11:41Wow! That's fantastic! Kashin is great! Incredible! How the heck did Kashin do that, Mandrake?
11:51Pure, unadulterated magic.
11:56Mandrake, the casino has been robbed.
11:58What?
11:59You must see what this crook has pulled off. We need your help, Mandrake, to figure out how it was done.
12:07At once.
12:10Mandrake! Thank heavens! I have never seen anything like this before!
12:14Safety deposit boxes, the vault, the cashier drawers. They were all unlocked instantly, in a split second.
12:23Was the video scan's security camera on?
12:26Oui, look!
12:29One second it was locked. The next second, it was wide open. It was as if it all happened by... magic.
12:37There's only one possible explanation.
12:41But why would he disobey me?
12:46Bruton! Bruton!
12:49You were the one who robbed the casino, and you used my time freezer, didn't you?
12:56You're not as dumb as you look, and I'm not finished yet either.
13:00I'm going to borrow the crown jewels of Monaco, and then for an encore, I think I'll empty all the gold out of Fort Knox!
13:19Stop that thing! He has the gems! Stop him!
13:30Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
13:51I've got to find out who is responsible for opening all those vaults locked up.
13:56Everyone knows about the trick I did to win the magic contest.
13:59If I don't find out who's doing this, people will think that Mandrake or I did it.
14:06And I'm talking him!
14:08I know, I know. I should have told Mandrake where we were going.
14:12But he might have stopped us, Zuff.
14:14Besides, Mandrake's out helping the police.
14:17Come on!
14:23Hello. We'd like to see the Duke of Montaigne. It's very important.
14:27He said if we ever needed anything, we could come to him.
14:30Hello. I mean, good evening, Duke, Your Highness, sir.
14:34Aren't you Kishin, Mandrake the Magician's Boy?
14:37Yes, sir.
14:38Well, what are you doing out here so late? Are you by yourself?
14:42I've got Zuff here. We're a crime-fighting team.
14:45We're looking for the crook who held up the Monte Carlo Casino.
14:48Come in, come in. You can tell me about your crime-fighting adventure.
14:54You see, Mandrake and I are the only two people in the world who know how to open balsam locks instantly.
15:01So the question is, did somebody else find out our secret? Mandrake even wondered if I told someone.
15:06Tell me, how did Mandrake learn the secret?
15:10It was a secret only known to the pharaohs of ancient Egypt.
15:14They're all mummies now, and mummies don't talk.
15:17What a clever boy you are, Kishin.
15:23Too bad you'll never find the answer to your mystery.
15:34The crown jewels!
15:36They're gone!
15:37That's impossible. They were here two seconds ago, and this door was locked.
15:42Guard! Come quickly! There's been a library!
15:48Let go! Let go of me! I must see the Duke at once!
15:53What is this? A trespasser?
15:55Not a trespasser, but a friend. I've come to warn you about the theft of the crown jewels.
16:01I heard they were kept here.
16:03What do you know of the missing jewels?
16:05They were stolen by a rogue named Bruton.
16:08How could this Bruton steal the jewels while we were in the room?
16:12He used my time freezer.
16:14Time freezer?
16:16My invention.
16:17It makes time stand still for everyone but the person who holds the device.
16:22A time freezer? Wow!
16:25We must capture Bruton before he robs again,
16:27because his next theft will be the crime of the century.
16:31Soon I shall have all the gold I can carry, and no one can stop me.
16:43Next stop, Fort Knox.
16:50We must find a way to get to this Fort Knox place.
16:53It's the only chance to stop his next crime.
16:56Zuff and I are coming too, Akimbo.
16:59Kashin, you had me worried. What's going on?
17:03Mandrake, we're on the trail of the jewel thief. He's got the crown jewels.
17:07We've got to hurry. Bruton's on his way to Fort Knox.
17:11How can you be sure that's where he's going?
17:13Bruton told me that himself.
17:15Mandrake, this thief must be caught.
17:18Come on.
17:26This time freezer you speak about sounds very interesting.
17:30If Bruton has it, how can we stop him?
17:33I'm not sure we can, Mandrake.
17:35My only hope is this.
17:38What's that?
17:40This is an earlier model of the time freezer.
17:43If I am able to synchronize it with Bruton's device,
17:46Bruton could be in for a surprise when he tries to freeze time.
17:51Hold it. This area is restricted to authorized personnel only.
18:07Whatever you got there, buddy, drop it right now. You're under arrest.
18:11I don't have the time for your petty games, human.
18:16Thank you, sir. Very kind of you.
18:34Nice. Very nice indeed.
18:38Drop it, Bruton.
18:42The game is up. You've run out of time.
18:46That's what you think.
18:54Why don't you freeze?
19:04There's no need to hurry now.
19:06We have his time freezer.
19:08Keep your lousy invention.
19:10I can buy anything I want with the crown jewels.
19:15It's all yours, Kashin.
19:22Defenders!
19:23Wait.
19:24Don't go out there.
19:25Why not?
19:26Bruton's getting away.
19:28On the contrary, Bruton is not going anywhere for the moment.
19:31Look. Without the time freezer, he cannot move in a frozen area.
19:35Defenders of the Earth.
19:36Let's go out there.
19:45Defenders of the Earth!
19:46Where?
19:47Where?
19:48Where? Where? Where? Where? Where?
19:49Where's the defenders of the Earth?
19:50outside for the crown jewels of Monaco.
19:57Akimbo, you were a great help in capturing Brutan.
20:00I am only happy my invention could help solve the problems it caused.
20:05Brutan could have stolen time forever.
20:07Now he'll be doing time in the intergalactic prison.
