the company will have to

pay us whatever we demand.

He insists his information cannot wait.

There are two Americans in town

looking for your cousin Abdullah.

What do they want with my cousin?

I-I don't know, Your Excellency.

They may be spies

for the railroad company.

Sheik Hamud, I suggest that you

leave Algiers immediately.

As soon as I finish my business

at the slave auction.

These Americans... can spoil everything.

They will be taken care of,

Excellency, by Ibrim.

He never fails.

I don't want anything to

happen to them in the streets.

Ibrim is wise.

He will drag them

into an alley, and, uh...

Point out the Americans to Ibrim. Yes, sir.

There's one of them.

Go with these

and find the other.

Wait a minute, fellows.

I don't know what this is all about.

Is it because I kissed that girl?

Huh? I hope not. I've never been

in such trouble before in my life.

And... Excuse me, please.

I'll pick it up. I'll pick

it up. What a nightmare!

Whew!

Oooh!

What are you doing in here? Ohhh!

There are some men

outside chasing me.

But if you are found in here with

the girls, you will be killed.

If I'm found outside with the

men, they'll kill me too. Men?

Yeah.

Oh.

There are no men out there.

Are you sure?

See. Go look for yourself. I think I will.

No, here.

That way.

Hey, maybe they're gone.

Ohhh! Hey!

They're out there.

They're out there.

Those are the men from the

Al-Minya tribe. Is that bad?

If they find you, they

will kill you. That's bad.

You cannot go in there!

If the guards find you with the

slave girls, they will kill you.

At least in there

I'll die happy.

Open the door.! Open the door

or we'll break it down.!

Hey, fellows, stand back and take

a run and break the door down.!

Thank you.

Uh-uh, no, you don't.

Get up on your feet.

"Get up. "

Get up on your feet!

That's all you want to do is rest. Ohhh!

Oh, I said get up.

What's the matter?

I told you to watch out for

Abdullah, didn't I? I did.

As soon as my back

is turned you go to sleep.

I found three members

of the Al-Minya tribe.

Where? I opened my eyes and here they were.

Here? Did they tell you where Abdullah is?

They were busy chasing me. They chased

me right into a room full of girls.

Never mind the girls. Tell me about

the men. The girls were beautiful.

Especially the one girl. She was

exotic. She... Never mind. Listen.

Forget about the girls. Tell me about

the men. What did they look like?

They didn't appeal to me. But the

girls, the girls... Never mind the girls!

Will you please tell me about

the men? Yes. Oh, the men?

They were vicious. They were

big. They looked like that. Yes?
