EXT. ALTERTEN, CAREN - DAY
There is a group of ten to fifteen men with shovels standing on a hill top where a statue persides. The statue is of a woman with delicate features wearing
a long robe that wraps around her body and covers all but her toes. She seems to be looking down over something. MALTON walks up to INDY when they arrive
in the car.
INDY: That rented car is surprisingly nice.
INDY smiles and MALTON puts his hand on his shoulder, gesturing with the other.
MALTON: Heres the group I was talking about. It's a little bigger than I imagined, I wanted to remain inconspicuous but it'll have to do.
INDY: It's great thanks. You've been a great help, I appreciate it.
MALTON: Think nothing of it. It's not every day I get to enjoy something like this. Well sir, these gentlemen await your instructions.
They walk up the hill, the rest of the group behind them. Then the hill is shown at different times of the day as the sun sets and the hole is dug deeper
and deeper. Finally it is dusk. The girls are seated drinking water. ROB, HENRY, INDY, MALTON and BROWAN are all digging. One of the hired diggers walks up
to them.
DIGGER: Excuse me sir, but we've been digging for hours. Might I ask what we're looking for?
INDY(hesitant): A room.
DIGGER: A room? Is that all?
INDY: No, we want what's in the room. It holds something important.
DIGGER (slightly amused): Uh sir, I hate to tell you this but the only rooms under here are abandoned mine shafts that were dug years ago. People believed
there was gold down there but they never found anything valuable or even remotely important.
INDY pauses in a sort of shock.
INDY: Are you sure?
DIGGER: Positive. Sir.
INDY(to self): I don't believe this. He sent us to the wrong place.
DIGGER: I'm sorry?
INDY: Nothing. Excuse me.
INDY walks over to his father and taps him.
INDY: Dad...dad, stop digging.
HENRY: What's the matter?
ROB, nearby, hears INDY.
ROB: What's wrong?
INDY: We were sent to the wrong place.
HENRY: What-
INDY: MALTON!
INT. HOTEL IN ALTERTEN - NIGHT
MALTON: I don't understand it. Why would he do this?
INDY, ROB, BROWAN and MALTON are in MALTON'S hotel room. MALTON is seated in a desk chair. INDY is pacing around him, ROB is leaning against the wall, and
BROWAN is standing with arms crossed near the door.
INDY: I'm guessing he was part of that group you talked about.
MALTON: I just don't believe it. My friend...
ROB: I knew there was something wrong with him! (to MALTON) Uh, no offense.
MALTON: Well I know one thing for sure. Tomorrow we start at the right place. And when I get my hands on Darren...(grits teeth) oh boy.
INDY: Slow down. He sent us to the wrong place for a reason. We'll have to scout out the area, make sure they aren't waiting for us again.
ROB: Right, they must of figured we'd find out eventually. I mean it's common sense.
INDY(to ROB): Tomorrow morning you and I will go check it out. And I think we better ditch the hired help, we can't trust anyone. We've got more than
enough people anyways.
MALTON(to BROWAN): I'm so sorry. I really had no idea. I didn't mean to get you into this trouble.
BROWAN: It wasn't your fault. It's an honest mistake. Besides you've more than made up for it with your help.
MALTON: It's just...I should have known!
INDY: Look, don't beat yourself up over it. Things like this happen. You couldn't have known. Right now we have to worry about getting that orb.
ROB: We can't tell the girls we're going. They'll turn it into an issue again.
INDY: Then we'd better hit the hay so we can get up early. We'll see you tomorrow, wait for us in the lobby.
ROB and INDY leave the room. BROWAN turns to MALTON who still looks depressed.
BROWAN: Don't stay up all night worrying about this. Like Dr. Jones said, you couldn't have known.
BROWAN shakes his head and leaves the room.
INT. HOTEL LOBBY - MORNING
MALTON, HENRY, BROWAN, TREFLER, and LOCKHEART are standing together. INDY and ROB come in.
BROWAN: There they are.
As they come up to the group
LOCKHEART: I see you took charge for everyone again.
INDY: Let's not start down that road again.
MALTON: So, what happened?
ROB: Nothing.
BROWAN: Nothing? They didn't put up a fight?
INDY: That's just it, there was no "they". There was no one there.
HENRY: No one?
EXT. CAPPLENT, CAREN - DAY
INDY: No one. See?
They all survey the area. It is much the same as in Alterten, except the statue is slightly different.
ROB: All around there were different traps and things, even animal traps, but they'd been set off with nothing in them.
TREFLER: It looks like this area has already been dug. As if someone put the soil back into the hole.
MALTON: What in the hell is going on here?
ROB: Good question.
INDY takes up his shovel.
INDY: Only one way to find out.
He lifts a shovel and then brings it down into the already soft soil. Again the digging goes on for some time. It becomes evening when finally they hit
something hard.
LOCKHEART: Eureka!
ROB: This better be it.
INDY: Wipe the dirt off there.(points)
They clear off the soil to reveal a wooden door beneath.
BROWAN: Finally we did it!
INDY: Hey, this is only the door. Inside is where the real fun starts. Here help me open it.
The door has two handles on top and ROB and INDY each grab one. They strain against its weight until finally it comes free and they lift it open.
There is a group of ten to fifteen men with shovels standing on a hill top where a statue persides. The statue is of a woman with delicate features wearing
