00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 5: What did you say?

17
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 6: We're listening to a tape from granddad's expedition in the Himalayas.

18
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 5: Okay, you found more Yetti tapes.

19
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 7: I knew it.

20
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 5: I knew it.

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 8: I'll see you in two hours.

22
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,559
Speaker 5: Don't forget to shower. All eyes are on you tonight

23
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 5: for that opening speech, which you've written.

24
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 3: Almost I'm off finally I'm hitting play.

25
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 4: Tom Slick February fourth, nineteen fifty eight. I'm here sharing

26
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 4: a whiskey with my assailant and devoted partner.

27
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 7: But I wasn't really gonna kill it.

28
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 4: Oh, I know, and I wasn't really going to kill you.

29
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 3: He's ayes, mom, shush, I lived with suspense.

30
00:01:48,000 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: Turn it up, mister Tom, I set according. It's mister Dulles, ask.

31
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 4: For you're a good man, Dawa. What's our lead time?

32
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: We have a week and a half to lay the

33
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: groundwork for the Tibet Task Force.

34
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 4: So this Dulles really expects us to run a full

35
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 4: on hunt while trying to save the ducks us not.

36
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 9: Why the trees listening? Hey, we refer to him Islama X. Okay,

37
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 9: he's a national treasure for the Tibetan people and he's

38
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 9: been a target for China since they invaded the country

39
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 9: eight years ago.

40
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 4: Oh why is this Islama such a big deal?

41
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 9: Because the Chinese have heard only one name, puncture the

42
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 9: final breath of their victims.

43
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 10: What was that?

44
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 4: The battle cry of resurrection?

45
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 9: Lama X is an emblem of hope to his people.

46
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 9: I mean, he personifies the promise of life after death.

47
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 10: You Americans are selfish busts.

48
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: Why don't you care.

49
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 4: Like I said, Lama x is a national treasure.

50
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 9: We're greedy bastards too.

51
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 4: But we don't do the saving right.

52
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 9: Nope, Dolls has a task force going after the Lama.

53
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 9: We're just laying the groundwork for the route through the Himalayas.

54
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 7: So even if we don't find Agetti, still making history

55
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 7: Unwritten history.

56
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 10: Chapter five.

57
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 11: This is the mostly true tale of Tom Slick, mystery hunter.

58
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 4: Tom Slick February nineteenth, nineteen fifty eight. Ten days until

59
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 4: we hit Tibet. We've met up with one of the

60
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 4: other two teams. They're turning back with the dogs. One

61
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 4: is injured, the other i'llnourished.

62
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 1: Tell that to my empty gut.

63
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 4: Still no sign of our Yetti, but we got the

64
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,679
Speaker 4: tranquilizer gun now and we are at the ready.

65
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 9: Can you smell that?

66
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: That's stench that's used Slick.

67
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 9: We're getting close.

68
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 4: Tom Slick February twenty first, nineteen fifty eight. Eight days

69
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 4: till Tibet, A bear eight three fourths of our food rations,

70
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 4: so we'll have to stock up in Tibet before we

71
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 4: head back out. Nothing to report on the YETI front.

72
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 4: I'm disappointed, but I hold on to hope. Tom Slick

73
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 4: February twenty second, nineteen fifty eight. Seven days till t Bet.

74
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 4: Our only other team in the field has gone dark.

75
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 4: It's been two days since our last correspondence. Maybe they

76
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 4: ran into our yetdie. We certainly haven't, and I'm starting

77
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 4: to think Bud's right. I stink. Tom Slick, February twenty third,

78
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 4: nineteen fifty eight. Six days till.

79
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 12: Damn it Slick.

80
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 4: We've just intercepted with the other team. They lost two

81
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 4: men and as you can hear, you know.

82
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: But it's scientific investigation.

83
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 9: The mountain has broken the others.

84
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: You're a mad mad chize it into five tired.

85
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 4: Tom Slick, February twenty fourth, nineteen fifty eight. Five days

86
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 4: till Tibet. We have nothing to eat. Bud is out

87
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 4: scrounging up game. Well, sit and starve. This morning we

88
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 4: trekt a grueling rounde through an unexpected mass of trees.

89
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 4: I thought I saw.

90
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 9: It the YETI, but when I shouted, it vanished a

91
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 9: figment of some way I believed was real. Tom Slick

92
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 9: February twenty fifth, nineteen fifty eight. Four days until Tibet.

93
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 9: Still O YETI.

94
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 10: Ain't on no hope.

95
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 9: February twenty seventh, nineteen fifty eight.

96
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 10: There's nothing to report.

97
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 9: I'm recording this to remind myself I'm still here, because

98
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 9: well I've lost everything, men, money, my mind. These Himalayas

99
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 9: were my Oklahoma oil field, and the YETI was my gusher.

100
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 9: But unlike my father, I gambled with.

101
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 8: Luck and lost.

102
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 9: Good God, did you hear that slick?

103
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 13: Was that?

104
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 4: Yes? The sound is sweet, sweet pctory.

105
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 10: Let's go, come on, let's get her.

106
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: Yetti always shuts off the good parts.

107
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 13: Wait.

108
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 6: Blair found one of these expedition tapes at the institute.

109
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 9: I dambled with uck and lost. So what happens?

110
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 6: They're running after what Grandad thinks is the yetti and

111
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 6: it's chaos and everyone starts screaming.

112
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 8: It sounded like they were running.

113
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 9: Away from something.

114
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 4: Well that's boring.

115
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: Come on, let's just see if one of these last

116
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: tapes can tell us what happened.

117
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 4: I have twenty minutes before the pest control guy comes

118
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 4: at the back.

119
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: He's holding my addic hostage, and they're more boxes up

120
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: there I need to go through.

121
00:07:50,400 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 8: Let's just get through this one first, Okay.

122
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 4: Bud, you alive?

123
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 9: Oh relly mister tom your leg or through it or

124
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 9: the other men.

125
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: Tashi and Doma were consumed by the avalanche.

126
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 4: Damn it is there any way save them.

127
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: There is no chance they survived, good man.

128
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 10: But you, me and mister.

129
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: Budd ran toward the how which took us away from

130
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: the avalanche's path. You say, are you saying the Yetty

131
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 1: guided us? No, mister tom the Yetti saved us. Are

132
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 1: you kidding me? We lose good men? Dogs bood.

133
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 7: Tommy, we've had a change of plans.

134
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 4: So have we two days away from Tibet. Now, I'm

135
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 4: telling you we need an additional forty eight hours here

136
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 4: in the Arun Valley. We're close, dolls, and the Yetti

137
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 4: knows it.

138
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 7: I don't give a shit. I have forty eight hours

139
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 7: for you to get your ass Tibet, locate Lama X

140
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 7: and get him.

141
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 8: Out of there.

142
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 4: What about your task force?

143
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 7: Whatever avalanche came through there the past few hours, it

144
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 7: knocked out their route through Baton. They have no clear

145
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 7: path forward, but you do.

146
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 4: Oh, so we're in George of Lama X's escape.

147
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 7: Now, yeah, lucky.

148
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 9: Tommy, You remember at the beginning of all of this,

149
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 9: when you told me Lama X could help me find

150
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 9: my yetti.

151
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 7: Vaguely, What did you mean? Do you believe in the magic?

152
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 10: Now? What am I saying?

153
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 11: You believe anything?

154
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 7: I don't see magic is a flight of hand, which

155
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 7: is what I plan. But there have been things I've

156
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 7: witnessed that make me question everything. And Lama X, he's wonderful.

157
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 1: He bost it, mister budd, I think you broke it good.

158
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 10: I hate that guy.

159
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 7: Go here over, Oh he had a forty eight hours.

160
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 8: Over it's Batman.

161
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:21,960

194
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,240

Speaker 5: read anything?

229
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 6: Well, technically it's not written. It's just a voice memo

230
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 6: right now and.

231
00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 5: My hives are back.

00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,920

Speaker 6: See you in an hour.

238

Speaker 3: Or maybeen an hour and a half.

239
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 4: That's gonna leave a bump.

240
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: Did we kill him, mister Tom?

241
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 4: No, No, he's knocked out. It's a sedative Dawa, but

242
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 4: it was made for a YETI, So I think we

243
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 4: have time, Tom Slick March third, continue Dawa and I

244
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 4: just took out three Tibetan rebels there to protect Lama x.

245
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 4: I guess they didn't get the memo that we're here

246
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 4: to do the same thing, because one of them nearly

247
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 4: took my ear off with a serrated knife.

248
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 9: But I've siphoned our monster tranquilizer gun into MINISERI, and

249
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 9: that Quory became Damas dark Board.

250
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 8: We'll Chinese just showed up.

251
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 14: They're armed with rifles.

252
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 4: It's our front. They won't use them.

253
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 3: I hope.

254
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 4: Is the mob still holding them off?

255
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 7: They're part of the problem.

256
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 4: If the Chinese, I will take the palace. If mob

257
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 4: will be right behind them, it'll be mass chaos.

258
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 14: There's no way we'll get our hands.

259
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 4: On lama As.

260
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:30,200

Speaker 14: The Chinese just threw canisters of tear as into the mob,

276
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 14: and I was.
