: [squawking]
: [gunshot]
: [squawking]
: Ah. I missed.
: Well, we haven't missed many, have we, Willy?
: [barks]
: Julio, hand me the binoculars.
: [dramatic music]
: [engine whirring]
: What is it, Race?
: I'm not sure, Dr. Quest.
: Looks like another leak in the oil line.
: I should've checked that relief valve back in San Martin.
: Hm. That's bad.
: There's no place to put down in these mountains.
: [engine whirring]
: We better find a place.
: The pressure's dropping.
: [whirring]
: [barking]
: [whimpers]
: Hey, Bandit sees something.
: Look, it's a landing strip.
Dr. Quest: You're right, Jonny, on top of that plateau.
: A landing strip in the heart of the Andes?
: It's like a miracle!
: It'll be a miracle if I can land this thing on that short runway.
: [engine whirring]
: [intense music]
: Looks like we are about to have company, Julio.
: Unexpected..
: ...and uninvited.
: [engine whirring]
: Landing at this altitude would be tough enough even with perfect engines.
: [music continues]
: [whimpers]
: [panting]
: Poor Bandit. I think he would like to be safe on the ground.
: And so would I.
: Me too.
: Hold on. We are coming in.
: If...I can just keep her nose up.
: [engine droning]
: [music continues]
: [tires screeching]
: Well done.
: Excellent flying. Excellent.
: You handled that beautifully, Race.
: Thanks, doctor.
: For a minute there I thought we weren't gonna make it.
: I was so scared, I forgot I was air sick.
: So did Bandit.
: [barking]
Dr. Quest: Say, that's quite a building for the middle of nowhere.
Race: Take a look at those old planes.
: One looks like a Fokker D-7
: and the other could be a SPAD.
: Or maybe an old Nieuport.
: Hey, that's right, Jonny.
: Hey, this place is gonna be fun.
: [engine sputtering]
: Let us go and greet our visitors, Willy.
: Keep the rifle handy, Julio.
: [engine revving]
: [whirring]
: I am Baron Heinrich Von Freulich.
: Welcome to Marienburg.
: [snarling]
: Marienburg, my humble castle in the Andes named after my family's castle on the Rhine.
: Thank you, sir.
: I am Dr. Quest. Benton Quest.
: I gather, you have motor trouble.
: Yes, an oil leak, I'm afraid.
: We've had trouble with the relief valve.
Freulich: My hangar workshop is fully equipped.
: You are welcome to use it and please accept the hospitality of Marienburg, such as it is we have few guests.
: [snarling]
: It takes Bandit a little while to get used to strangers.
: Bandit and I have something in common.
: [instrumental music]
: Hey, your a nice little fellow, what's your name?
: My dachshund, Willy.
: His father was the great German champion, Wilhelm of Hanover.
: [snarling]
: [whistling]
: I wouldn't expect to see two planes like that up here.
: Mementos of the past.
: I fly them very little any more.
Dr. Quest: You've kept them in fine shape, baron.
: How else would a man treat his memories, Dr. Quest?
: [music continues]
: [engine stalls]
: Very interesting, Dr. Quest.
: I heard the Chilean government was installing a new type air filter in the silver mines.
: But, I didn't think I would have the honor of a visit from the inventor himself.
: You know, uh, you were lucky to sight my landing strip.
: There isn't another between here and La Paz.
: Ah, we were lucky to get our ship down on that short run way considering the altitude and your cross winds.
: Oh, you are, you are far too modest, Mr. Bannon.
: I haven't seen flying like that since my old squadron was..
: ...disbanded.
: Your old squadron, you mean those planes.
: [barking]
: Bandit has discovered that big bird up there.
: I think he is afraid of it.
: He should be, the mountain ledges above this castle are one of the last few homes of the giant condor.
: Aren't they sort of a giant vulture?
: That's right, sometimes they drop in unexpectedly to pick up one of my sheep.
: Your sheep?
Freulich: Of course, they usually feed on carrion, dead bodies but, sometimes they will go for small live animals.
: I, uh, I never let Willy out of my sight.
: They are the kings of the Andean skies.
: Strong, fearless and free.
: I envy them.
: And now if you will excuse me, gentlemen I retire early.
: Julio will, uh, will show you your rooms.
: Poor Julio, a fine and faithful servant but unable to speak.
: Born mute.
: Come, Willy.
: Goodnight, gentlemen.
: [door clanks]
: [door closes]
: And bless dad..
: And Race..
: And that landing strip.
: [in unison]
: Amen!
Dr. Quest: Aren't you forgetting someone, boys?
: Baron Freulich.
: Oh, and that spooky old Baron Freulich...I guess.
: Amen again.
: [barks]
: [dramatic music]
: [intense music]
: [squawking]
: [condor squawks]
Hadji: I have a strange feeling about this place, Jonny.
: Scary, isn't it?
: [howling]
: [whimpering]
: What was that?
: [hooting]
: Maybe one of those hungry condors.
: It sounded more like Bubo, the owl.
: [squawking]
: [whimpering]
: Poor Bandit, he's really scared.
: He is scared. Look at me.
: And I thought this place was gonna be fun.
: Now let me see...the baron..
: Where have I heard of him before?
: What do you think, Race?
: About Freulich, I think he's a weirdo.
: Between his memories is condors and his old squadron he's got it bad.
: Of course. The condor squadron.
: I knew the name Baron Von Freulich sounded familiar.
: Back in 1918, he was his country's top ace with 84 kills to his credit.
: They say that when the war ended, he flew into a rage.
: He wanted to raise his score to an even hundred.
: Looks like he's never gotten over his disappointment.
: The sooner we get out of here tomorrow, the better.
: Think we can?
: I hope so.
: I probably should be down at the hangar right now working on that relief valve.
: [dramatic music]
: [clanking]
: [music continues]
Freulich: Now, that's that, Willy.
: No one will leave here until I have played my little game.

Jonny: Bandit!
: What' re you doing out here, Bandit?
: You could've been grabbed by one of those old condors.
: Like the baron said.
: [snarls]
: [gunshot]
: Hey! That sounded like a gun.
: [gunshot]
: Boy, even in the daytime this is a scary old place.
: [gunshots]
: An aim like that must be a little rough on your feathered friend.
: Only the cardboard ones, Dr. Quest.
: It is not this easy when the target is alive and moving.
: I am lucky to get an occasional tail feather.
Race: Now, that shouldn't be too hard to do.
: Ah, Mr. Bannon.
: Would you care to try your luck?
: Thanks, baron.
: How about that loose tail feather?
: [dramatic music]
: [gunshot]
Freulich: Good shot, Mr. Bannon.
: You would make a worthy opponent.
Race: Baron, I just came from the hangar.
: Someone seems to have tinkered with our plane during the night.
: Really? Tsk-tsk-tsk.
: Julio probably.
: Always trying to help.
: I will have a talk with him.
: Well, talk wont replace that relief valve.
: I'll have to get to La Paz for a new one.
: Would you care to borrow my SPAD, Mr. Bannon?
: Is there no other way off this plateau.
: None. The only trail has been wiped out by an landslide.
: Well, in that case, baron, I will accept your offer.
: Excellent.
: You will find the necessary equipment in my study.
: Thanks. I'll get my gear.
: [gunshots]
: In this old flying outfit I look like a late late movie.
: With all these relics, it looks like the baron came out of one.
: I wonder what's on his mind?
: He might've given us a hint when he said I'd make a worthy opponent.
: [knocking on window]
: Gentlemen, I must-must warn you.
: Julio.
: I thought..
: Oh, I can talk gentlemen.
: When there is something that has to be said.
Dr. Quest: What's wrong, Julio?
: Mr. Bannon is dealing with the devil himself.
: If he flies that plane take care.
: Well, what was that all about?
: I don't know. The old fellow's upset about something.
: Bandit, a little exercise will help you dry out.
: Here, boy, fetch this stick.
Jonny: Go on, fetch, boy!
: Fetch the stick.
: [Bandit barks]
: Speak to me, Julio.
: What did you tell them?
: What did you tell them?
: [snarling]
: I know you can talk, I heard you!
: And what have you done with Willy?
: What have you done with Willy?
: [smacking]
: Alright, so you won't answer me?
: As soon as my little game with Mr. Bannon is finished I will be back to take care of you, once and for all.
: [door closes]
: Come on.
: The old baron just left.
: [snarling]
: We'll untie you, Julio.
: Don't worry 'bout me.
: Open that cupboard.
: [Willy whimpering]
: Just open that cupboard.
: Willy is in it.
: [panting]
: [engine revving]
: There goes dad and Race with the baron.
: The baron intends to kill Mr. Bannon once he is in the air.
: Kill Race, how?
: In one last dogfight.
: Mr. Bannon will fly the SPAD.
: The baron, the D-7.
: [barks]
: But, he may not succeed without Willy his good luck charm.
: That is why I hid him in the cupboard.
: Come on, we better try to stop them.
: Ah, there you are, Mr. Bannon.
: The SPAD is warmed up and ready to go.
: My other plane too.
: Your other plane?
: It is a difficult flight out of here to La Paz.
: I thought I would lead the way.
: I know the mountain passes.
: Thanks, baron.
: But that isn't necessary.
Freulich: But, I insist, Mr. Bannon.
: I insist.
: Come on, Julio, step on it.
: [engine revving]
: [engine sputtering]
: So long, Race. And good luck.
: Thanks, Benton.
: Oh, Dr. Quest, if you watch from the edge of the plateau you may have an interesting view of our flight.
Dr. Quest: Thanks and good luck to you.
: Yes. I may need a little of that today without Willy.
: [engine sputtering]
: [engine revving]
: [dramatic music]
: [engine revving]
: Hurry, Julio, hurry!
: [engine revving]
Jonny: Dad! Dad!
: The baron is going to shoot Race down in an aerial dogfight.
: An aerial dogfight.
: So that's it.
: But with Race, the baron may have his hands full.
: Possibly, except the baron's guns are loaded.
: Mr. Bannon's are not.

: Sure you won't change your mind and come with us.
: Thank you. No, Dr. Quest.
: This is our home.
: Mine and Willy's. We wouldn't be happy anywhere else.
: Adios, Adios, clang
: [engine revving]
: whoosh
: [instrumental music]
: An amazing story, Race..
: You're being saved by a giant condor.
: Look! There's one now.
