TARZAN-S3-E03-Tarzan and the Witness for Prosecution

Duration 23m

Dan, Roger and Cheetah are flying back after gathering some artifacts of the long-lost U'Longa tribe. Dan is very agitated over the up-coming murder trial and Cheetah is in the back of the plane rummaging through the artifacts. He picks up a small blow gun, puts it to his mouth and blows. A dart, left in the pipe many years ago shoots out and hits Dan in the neck. Very quickly Dan begins to feel ill and radios Jane that he will land the plane in a nearby clearing and for her to bring some serum. Jane rushes over to Dan's living quarters and finds a stranger sorting through Dan's belongings. He turns around startled and pulls a gun on Jane. Jane freezes and then notices Tarzan climbing silently through the window. Getting up, the man shows an official looking I.D. and introduces himself as Ron Marley, a policeman from Bandali, here to escort Dan to the trial. Jane then finds the serum and the three of them take off to find Dan and Roger. Tarzan, Jane and Marley reach the clearing and Jane injects the serum into the unconscious Dan's arm. As Tarzan and Roger try to turn the plane around for take-off, Dan regains consciousness and sees the blurred image of Marley's face in front of him. As he begins to focus, he recognizes the man, not as Ron Marley but as Fred Clark, the murderer's partner. As he is beginning to smother Dan, the others return and are held at gun point while Cheetah runs into the jungle and watches from the he underbrush. Roger runs back to the plane and retrieve the artifacts just as the plane explodes. Back in the jeep, Clark hears the explosion and thinks he is home scot free. Tarzan, high in the trees, spots the jeep and gives his jungle cry. Tantor, hearing the yell lumbers into the trail and blocks the jeep's path. Clark jumps from the jeep running and Tarzan swings down after him. After firing all his bullets at Tarzan, Clark is finally subdued. Jack testifies at the trail and both Clark and his partner are put away for a long time.
