Los ilusionautas Page #5

---

The only way for you to heIp ProfiteroIe

is to hit Restart on this story,

and then go on to the next one.

Well, it looks like we are on the right route.

There's the River of Lizards...

...and the Tree of Serpents.

What shaII we do about the cannibaIs?

The same thing they do in the original story.

In a little while, the moon

is going to be hidden,

and then what we'll do is

make them believe we are Iunar gods...

...and that we must enter the Temple of Onoffon

for the moon to reappear.

You think that wiII work?

As Iong as the moon stays

behind the clouds, it'll work.

Jevre tishmeu, anajnu anshei ha yareaj

she koI eIef shanim yoredim laharetz.

Ajshaf tnu lanu leikanes le Onoffon.

Mister Clinton, you and Jose stay in the balloon.

Once we enterthe tempIe, that's

hopefully when Dr. Ferrero will return.

So wait here.

But, if the moon reappears,

you'd better hurry and go!

- What about you?

- Don't worry about us. We'll be fine.

It's important that you be in the balloon

when Dr. Ferrero appears.

Those kids are mighty brave.

lf you ask me, l'd say they're nuts.

Torpedo, they're entering the tempIe.

Go finish them off!

Who is that crazy intruder?

And who invited him to the party?

How did he enter The IlIusionarium?

I don't understand.

I got you!

What have you done?

Don't yell at me,

you are making me nervous!

I asked forthe intruder, not an octopus!

Oh, no! We have to get out of here now!

Hurry! Quick!

Pascal, everything is destroyed.

This is a disaster.

Okay, Monsieur Boss, the most important

thing we can do right now...

...is to look at the positive side of all of this!

Here are the facts, PascaI.

We have Iost the chiIdren,

and without The lllusionarium,

they can never return!

And, tomorrow the President's wife

is re-launching Visogneaux,

but thanks to us,

his stories are crazierthan before,

and now there's a giant octopus on the loose!

Tell me, Pascal! Please tell me

what is the positive side?

Calm down , Iet me see...

Missing children, furious first Iady,

crazy stories, octopus...

Of course! That's it!

I know the positive side!

Do you realize that the price

forfresh sushi-grade octopus...

...is over 12 Euros per pound?

And, our octopus has got to

be at Ieast 35000 pounds!

That's over400000 Euros!

Assuming the Euro doesn't coIlapse

before we seIl the entire carcass,

but just in case, maybe

we seIl it to the Japanese...

...and insist on getting paid in Yen!

If the moon appears,

you realize we are done for.

There's the Restart button.

Onoffon. On, off, on.

It's so obvious now.

l guess I didn't expect

these cannibaIs to be so literate.

What?

Go, NicoIe!

Nothing's happening!

On, off, on...

PuII the Iever down one more time!

It's the moon!

Look! Look!

Haz hem lo hayareaj!

Nobody messes with the friends

of the great Profiter...

lt's the portal! We're saved!

Get ready you guys!

- It's time!

- Come on, Houston!

NicoIe.

Where do you think you're going,

come back here.

Come back! l'll get you!

Why, why?

Pourquoi? Pourquoi! (Why? Why!)

No, not again, Boss.

S'il vous plait! (Please.)

Please, not up the mountain

again to the professor, no!

I don't want to!

I don't want to go!

You only have yourself to blame.

Moi? (Me?)

That is just not the truth at all!

You distracted me with

your big panicking attack,

and so I got confused and

you made me push the wrong button.

Do you think that l wanted to

bring a giant octopus into ourfaces?

Non! (No!)

If there is a soIution to this catastrophe,

the Professor wilI know it.

You're just in time!

I was just working on a solution,

to a complex problem,

what came first, the cork orthe corkscrew?

- Cork, of course.

- Corkscrew, of course.

lt was the cork! Obviously!

I disagree, it was the corkscrew!

Minister Chateau! PIease, why would

someone need to invent a corkscrew...

...if there were no corks that

needed to be pulIed from the bottle?

And, why would someone

pIug up a bottIe with a cork...

...if there was no corkscrew to open it up with!

The cork!

The corkscrew!

The cork!

The corkscrew!

And now you can see.

This is a big diIemma.

Even more important than

the-chicken-and-the-egg conundrum,

because there are many more wine drinkers

than chicken eaters.

Have you seen Profiterole or Petit Pan?

l can't find them anywhere.

I guess they Ianded on

a different side of the boat.

I wonder which book we're in now?

Don't know, it's obviousIy some kind of voyage,

but l really can't identify the story.

I'm sorta worried about Petit Pan.

Nicole, are you and he...

No, no, no, Petit Pan and I...

No, nothing!

I just meant he'd be heIpfuI

since he knows all the stories by heart.

My valet, Normalverbraucher, left suddenly.

Reliable help is difficult to find.

I had the obligation to catch the Flying Train...

...and l couldn't keep searching

for him, so I got on board.

I could not be late.

So, we must be in the story,

''The Adventures on the Flying Train.''

What are we doing on a ship

when we shouId be on a train?

Who knows, remember Visogneaux

was a terribIe writer.

- You thought you couId escape from me?

- Run!

Very interesting.

Yes, very interesting.

So what do you think, Professor?.

- Here is what I think, very interesting!

- Yes, we get that!

So, do you have a soIution to

our very interesting problem, or no?

To which problem?

The kids! We have to find a way

to get the kids back, Professor!

So, why didn't you say so!

That diIemma is biggerthan

the chicken, orthe egg!

The kids, Professor!

Oh, yes, yes, yes...

l just might have a solution for you!

There was a period in which I was

working on something and abandoned it.

l got distracted by a formula.

I don't remember at what stage

I left that experiment.

Let me think...

lt's dangerous though, it was

still in the experimentation phase.

I don't know if it'II even work,

we never tried to use it.

FoIlow me!

This is awesome! I've never

seen anything so cooI!

Now we're underwater.

I read this book.

I know where we are.

Oh, oh, no, no, don't tell me.

lt's the underwater city of Pandora.

Why do l have a bad feeling about this?

I need to borrow your brain.

lt's the closest thing that l have

to a twelve-year-old child, no offense.

Nicole! You've gotta try and wake up!

Why are you doing this, you ugIy Neanderthal,

if you throw us over board,

with this weight on, we'll die.

I need to know which one of Jean Visogneaux's

stories you want to go into!

Je ne sais pas! (l don't know.)

How am l supposed to know

where those kids have gone?

And how am l supposed to know

which way to direct the machine...

...if you don't tell me?

We don't know where they are,

we lost them before the last reset!

That was a close one.

No, please, you have to let us go!

Help us, somebody help us! No!

So to which of the stories

do you want to go?

Okay! How about starting

with ''The Fantastic Tunnel.''

I can do that!

ls this going to hurt?
