...plah!

Think!

Someone wants the tribes

to destroy each other.

There must be something

valuable in this equation.

Perhaps we should meditate, Spike.

For it is said that

when seeking answers, one must...

...quiet the soul in order

to hear them.

What is it the Wachati possess...

...that is of great value

to other men...

...besides the princess

with the amazing rack?

All righty, then.

You're back?!

You can dispense with the smallpox,

all-knowing one.

I'm here on business,

and time is of the essence.

Very well.

What answer do you seek?

What do the Wachatis possess...

...that is of great

value to civilized man?

The medallion will lead you

to the answer.

You do still have

the medallion, don't you?

Medallion?

Why, surely.

I left it back...

...with my body.

Your aura...

...is weakening.

Okay! I threw it in a cave!

What do you want from me?

What are you? Mr. Perfect?!

Where is it?

It's probably lying...

...in a big pile of...

Guano!

They have guano!

Like...

...a glove.

Hi, Chief!

Appreciate your meeting me here.

Let's go kick some...

...consulate butt.

Hello, Ace.

You want your money?

Wrong again, Sweeney Toad.

I've come for the sacred bat.

Where is it?

Why...

...whatever can you mean?

Guano!

Hello!

Does poop ring a bell?

"Guano mines as a source of nitrate...

"...producing 84% of

the world's fertilizer...

"...a $1.4 billion industry."

That's what this war is about.

You can't take possession of the caves

while the Wachati inhabit the area.

And you want that dookie so bad...

...you can taste it.

I thought that...

Yes, thank you, Fulton.

That's a fine theory, Mr. Ventura.

What's it got to do with me?

I thought you'd...

...never ask.

When I met you, there was

a white substance on your shoe.

Yesterday, I saw the same

substance outside the hut...

...and it hit me that

the Great White Bat has white guano.

That's what you slipped in!

That's what was on your shoe!

And that explains the abrasion

on your palm!

Let me run that back for you.

That's what you slipped in!

That's what was on your shoe!

And that explains the abrasion

on your palm!

Damn, I'm good!

Can you feel that?

Can you feel it...

...Captain Compost?

The day of redemption is at hand!

Repent!

And thou shall be saved.

Very good.

Very good.

I believe you've solved the case.

One thing I still don't understand,

Mr. Belvedere.

If you are the slime behind

this little flim-flam...

...why, oh, why...

...did you hire me?

I'm afraid there'll be

an investigation after the war.

You were my alibi...

...to prove I'd done

everything I could to stop it.

Arrest him.

Arrest him!

Please arrest him.

Simon says, "Arrest him."

I thought you loved all animals,

Mr. Ventura.

I thought you loved all animals,

Mr. Ventura.

Shall I stick him on the wall?

No, I don't think it'll be

necessary, Gahjii.

Mr. Ventura has very cleverly stolen

the sacred bat of the Wachati.

Unfortunately, we were unable

to recover it in time to stop the war.

Hit the lights!

The switch is on the wall

beside you! Go for it!

Flick it!

All righty, then.

Shall we go to jail?

What are you? H.R. Shove-n-Stuff?

Get in!

Just one more thing.

What are you doing?

Stop it!

I said, stop it!

To the jungle, Boba!

Friends...

...rodents...

...quadrupeds!

Lend me your ears!

Imbecile! You let him get away!

You don't seem to understand.

The tribe will be killed.

Remind me to send a sympathy card.

We're going to get the bastard.

There's nothing he can do now.

We've got the bat, and it's nearly noon.

What the hell's going on?!

You see...

...humans and animals

can live in harmony!

Sorry for the delay, Ace.

Hey, poachers!

Say hello...

...to my stinky little friend!

Get out! Get out!

Not so fast, Sally!

Get it away!

He wants to go off-road.

Nobody wants to play with me.

Loser!

From the consulate, right?

This is weird.

Noon.

The Wachati.

The spirit will overcome.

The spirit will overcome.

Headhunters!

Shikaka!

Coming through. Clear a path, people!

They will now consummate

the marriage as the tribe watches.

Well done, Ace.

You must be extremely proud.

Pride is an abomination.

One must forego the self...

...to attain spiritual creaminess...

...and avoid the chewy chunks...

...of degradation.

What's that he's he saying?

I think he's saying,

"She's not a virgin."

They can tell that?
