lt is the cry of the yeti.
The yeti, they've come back to the old palace.
-You summoned me, Raj Guru? -Yes, Mingro.
-l hear the villagers are uneasy tonight. -Yes, they are frightened.
The storm has driven the yeti out of the high mountains into the old palace.
That is not good.
lf the yeti cut our contact with the outside world...
...it could mean a slow death to the village and to us.
-The Raj Guru will be surprised to see us. -The who, Dad?
-The high priest of Khumjung. -Hadji's right, Jonny.
Raj Guru is an old friend of mine.
That's why l thought we'd drop in on him while we're in Nepal.
Hadji, how come you know so much all of a sudden?
ln my school in lndia, we learn everything.
There's the old palace of Kali Yuga.
No one's lived there for over 1 00 years.
-Fasten your seat belts. We're landing. -Horizontal power, off. Vertical power, on.
This is a pleasant surprise, Dr. Quest, but you have come at a difficult time.
The yeti have invaded the old palace on the mountain.
-The yeti, Raj Guru? -Yes.
The terrible snow creatures have come out of the high snows.
The natives are afraid to use the ropeway, and it is our only access to civilization.
That scream was no creature. That was a man!
Only a yeti could bring on such terror, Dr. Quest.
Must be something we can do about those monsters.
-l'm for going on a yeti hunt. -No, Mr. Bannon.
lt would only further arouse the yeti.
-Kind of scary, huh, Hadji? -Who's scared?
-l am. -Me too.
The festival of Mani Rimdu begins tonight.
We will offer up prayers and sacrifice to rid ourselves of the evil beasts.
Mingro, show our visitors to the cottage of the bells.
Yes, Raj Guru.
Doctor, l thought Sir Edmund Hillary proved that yeti...
...or the abominable snowmen, don't exist.
That's true, Race, but sometimes native superstitions...
...are just as powerful as scientific proof.
l have an uneasy feeling myself.
The gloom of night makes things seem so unreal.
Wow! That was close.
There's another one. Under the eave, Race, quick!
-What was that, Dad? -Just a loose rock, Jonny.
lt sounded like a bomb from in here.
lt's raining rocks!
They're probably rolling down the mountainside.
The yeti might be throwing them. They are very strong.
This is avalanche country. You'll get used to a few little ones.
-Let's take a look around the monastery. -We're in our pajamas.
When you're dressed, you can catch up with us.
-Ordinarily, this is a very restful place. -Yes, but not tonight.
-Almost ready, Jonny? -Seeing as how you know everything...
-...what's the scoop on this yeti stuff? -They're also called abominable snowmen.
They have feet that point backward, scream like a banshee and are invisible.
lf they're invisible, how can anybody see a yeti?
-No one has ''yet-i.'' -Oh, come on.
-What do you suppose he's after? -Something he saw through the window.
Maybe a rabbit. Bandit! Here, Bandit!
-Jonny! Look, tracks. -Wow, look at the size of them.
-l bet it's a yeti. -You better go tell your dad.
l better go find my dog.
There he goes, across the ropeway.
-That was close. -Let's go.
l am sorry we could not wait for Mr. Bannon and the boys.
But the great god, Buddha, directs we start our festivals before dawn.
l'm sure it's wise to follow Buddha's orders...
...especially with so much terror abroad in your mountains.
This palace must have 900 rooms.
91 7. l counted them.
And you had to be in the last room, Bandit.
-What is it, boy? -He must have heard something.
l don't see anything.
-Jonny, look. -lt's a yeti.
Carrying a lamp?
Quiet, boy.
Hey, what's he doing?
-He's a fake. -He's better-looking with the head on.
Look, there's more of them.
Gosh. And there's some coming in over on the other side too.
Looks like a yeti convention.
-Do you have our orders? -Yes.
We are to continue our terror until the Raj Guru is destroyed.
Tonight, shoot flaming projectiles.
No wonder the Raj Guru has been having trouble.
Don't tell me you're going to sneeze.
l guess l'm allergic to yetis, even phony ones.
-You plan to set fire to the village? -Yes, and with their leader destroyed...
...our forces can take over this area, but you may need your guns.
Check them, then take your positions.
-l'm glad you didn't sneeze. -Me too. lt would have meant curtains.
There's someone on the balcony!
Get them!
-Oh, boy. That did it. -Let's get out of here.
The boys aren't in the monastery. l've looked everyplace.
Maybe they've gone to the village.
Raj Guru, will you excuse us? We'd better try to find them.
But of course.
-This way, Jonny! -Right behind you!
Come on, Bandit!
-Where to now, Haj? -No place to go but down.
There they are!
Okay, let's go, then.
Come on, boy. All set. Fire one.
-Fire two. -Fire three.
We can't stay here for long.
Let's go!
Hey, Hadji, look. By the wall. Hop in, Haj.
You four, carry out the orders. Start firing the flaming projectiles.
You other three, follow me. We will take care of those intruders.
-Did you find the boys, Dr. Quest? -No. They're not in the village.
-Nobody's seen them. -This isn't like Jonny or Hadji.
Fire!
What's that?
l believe the lamas are starting the fireworks display.
This is not the work of the lamas.
Those are coming from the old palace.
Continue firing!
-The yeti must be behind this. -No, another enemy, Dr. Quest...
-...intent on destroying me. -You don't seem too worried.
l do not destroy easily. That is the least of my worries.
-We had best move out of here. -Yeah, and we'd better stop this attack too.
They could not have gone far. Search every corner.
l will shoot the animal!
Excuse me.
l have one of them!
So sorry.
Shoot! Kill them! Kill them! They must not escape!
Strike one.
Strike two.
Strike three.
You're out.
l have trapped one of them.
Maybe this oil will slow him up a little.
l have you now.
Gosh.
Now to find Hadji and Bandit.
l hope Hadji and Bandit made it.
Bombs away.
l think Dr. Quest would be interested in this mask.
Exhibit A. Come on, Bandit. Let's go find Jonny.
l hope this bridge will hold us.
lt has been here for many years, Mr. Bannon, and will be for many more.
Headlights on the ropeway. lt's the Raj Guru's jeep.
Fire at the ropeway, in front of it.
Man, those guys play rough.
-The ropes won't last long in this fire. -Right. We can't stay here.
We made it.
More trouble up ahead.
Hang on.
Now let's find the boys.
Boy, what a spot we picked to hide.
After this, even a dinner bell won't sound good.
l wish this thing would turn into a flying saucer, and we could fly away.
A flying saucer! Hey, great idea, Haj.
Now, if we could just cut that rope....
Yippee! Ride them, cowboy!
Stop them! They are escaping!
Hang on!
''Hang on,'' he says.
Hey, this is fun!
Oh, sure. lt helps get the kinks out of a guy.
Dr. Quest, look what's coming.
Thank goodness, the boys.
Greetings from spaceship number three.
-l hope you boys have a good excuse. -Well, l'll try to think of one, Dad.
Those abominable snowmen are just plain abominable men, sir.
l took this off one of them.
Dried antelope hide. A do-it-yourself yeti scalp.
-How many do you think are up there? -There were about 1 2 of them.
You can scratch at least three off that list. Say, nine.
That makes the odds about right, sir. Let's take a look.
lt seems pretty quiet. Let's go.
lt looks like they left in great haste.
There are enough yeti outfits and supplies here to equip a small army.
Dr. Quest, would you and Raj Guru step out here on the balcony?
-Trouble, Race? -No, sir, not now.
But someone's been playing pretty rough.
Looks like they've all been wiped out by some tremendous force.
-A terrible justice has been done here. -l wonder by whom.
-Dad. Hey, Dad. Look, tracks. -And they lead up the hill.
There's something on the ridge.
-What is it, Jonny? -l don't know.
What would you call that, Dr. Quest?
-l see it, but l hardly dare believe it. -You can believe it, Dr. Quest.
The yeti have taken vengeance into their own hands.
