(00:30):
Zakhov managed to enter the palace. Then Zakhov made his
way to where General Tall was putting Khan the Hawkman
into a cell. From Khan, the scientists learned what had
happened to Flash and the Zura.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Although Khan had only.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
A theory about Flashes being still alive and was unable
to tell Khn exactly where the Iron Door was located,
the great Scientist decided to search for it before his
invisibility wore off. At that moment, Flash and Queen Azura
reached the Iron Door in their mad dash for freedom.
They found it barred from the outside and heard the cries.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Of the Death Dwarf as they start to.

Dead Dwarf King Flash Gordon places himself between Queen as
Or and the howling mob of half sized men closing
in on them. As they stand at the barred iron door.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
They come with warves. Desorda stand behind me. I hold
them off as long as I can.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
You're a brave man, Flash, but I'm afraid there are
too many toilers.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
We've quite a few less pigments walking around by the
time they get me a z Orda Flash.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
They seemed to be in a conference.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Why don't say a test?
Speaker 3 (01:50):
I don't know. I would said, hurry up and come
out of the huddle. The suspense is worse than the
actual fighting.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I'm going to pound on the door again.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Somebody must be out there, help, he said, Surah, you're queen.
Your voice is all right, know you.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
I guess you are right. I know I'm right this time.
But I was a fool not to listen to you
Orda in the first place. It's all my fault. That
we're in this tough spot. I know apologizing won't save
our lives, but I want you to know I'm sorry.
I've listened to your life. I only wanted to capture
you as a hostage in order to conquer Tall and
your army.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
I believe you cash. While apologies are in order, I'd
like to ask your forgiveness. But the way I've seated you,
it was only because I loved you. I remind you
of the saying old.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
Pair in love and war.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
It's only fair to remind you of Orda that I
love dale Arden and I always will.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
I know that, but for once and for all I
beat her out. What do you mean, come the dwarf
to attack it. You may love dale Arden, but I.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Shall be the one who dies.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
In the Meanwhile, back at the palace, General Tall brings
a squad of guards to the cell of Khan hawkman.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Ah Um.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Well, prisoner Khan, But I need to say for yourself.
Speaker 6 (03:15):
Just as the cell isn't as comfortable as it might be, Tall,
you are.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Pleased to guess one would think you were a guest
of honor instead of a prisoners.
Speaker 6 (03:22):
Not from these quarters, they wouldn't.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Perhaps you can leave that cell, never to return to it.
By what means you still believe plast Gordon and Azura
are alive?
Speaker 6 (03:30):
I told you I shall never believe west Gordon deare
until I see his body.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
M yes, well, it may not be long before we
shall have that pleasure.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Is that so? Yes?
Speaker 5 (03:39):
That is so? Prisoner Khan, you forget that I am
now king of the Blue magic land?
Speaker 6 (03:44):
Are you saying you are doesn't make you a king?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
No?
Speaker 5 (03:47):
And listen, God, am I or am.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I not King? Paul?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
King? Call king?
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Call the person.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
You hear, Prisoner Khan. The guards acknowledge me to be
that king.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
They may say so to your faith, but I'll wait
because they don't behind your back. But what does this
handful of God do call you King? Taul? They are
the whole army. They aren't the whole kingdom.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
The whole army. I'll show you, prisoner, I'll show you
who acknowledges me to be king. Here, God down the
call for a view, and you open up the cell.
We'll bring that prison now with us. And now, prisoner,
I'm out of that cell, never to return. General from
(04:29):
that depends, and don't call me general. God bring the
prison of this way all that I'm mad?
Speaker 6 (04:38):
May I ask where you are taking me?
Speaker 5 (04:40):
You see, you soon find out wherever.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
We're going, it will be better than that cell back there. Honestly, Tall,
if you're going to run this country, you might begin
by improving your cell blocks. Well, what's the matter? Can't
you hold a polite conversation?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Ah?
Speaker 6 (04:56):
Why we're on the parade ground?
Speaker 5 (04:58):
God give this signal to not the review?
Speaker 6 (05:01):
What's all with porthole? Do you want the army to
get a good look at me so they'll recognize me
in case I fighter escape?
Speaker 5 (05:06):
And you are a brave soldier.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Praise from General Tall is praise.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Indeed, even though you are a prisoner and face death
at any moment, you are no coward on this review
for you, for me Yet, I'm having the entire army
passed before us for two reasons. One is to show
you that the troops will salute me as him.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
I see that sow you are getting the royal salute.
What is the other reason?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And you guess?
Speaker 6 (05:33):
I never guess, Well, Tall, what is the other reason
for this review?
Speaker 5 (05:41):
To give you an opportunity to become acquainted with your troup?
Speaker 6 (05:45):
With my troop? I don't understand you.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
I am offering you the post of commander in chief
of my army if I will do what If you
will square allegiance to me as King Paul.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Lat first you can call out your review tal You.
Speaker 5 (05:59):
Will not square a legion to me most emphatically, no,
very well, God stop the review. Take the prisoner back
to me, tell and keep him there for the rest
of his life.

returns to Dale Arden, who has been awaiting him.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Well, I am back jail for doctor Zarkoff.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
I was beginning to see if they'd captured you.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
How could they? They cannot see me.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
That's true, But I was afraid that you started to
become visible right now? What did you find out? How
it splashed?
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Did you see him? I did not see him, Dale.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
Oh, then we must search for him, doctor Arthurs. Let's hurry.
He won't be invisible forever.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
I have been searching for Flashdale. That is why I
have been so long in returning.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Two persons are better than one when it comes to searching.
Perhaps you find him with me helping.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I hope.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
So, Dale, where did you look for flesh in a
Zora's quartet.

not know until we find Flesh.
Speaker 4 (07:17):

Speaker 2 (07:19):
It seems that after Flesh captured the Witch Queen, he
carried her off through an iron door somewhere in the hills.
Kharan was only able to give the a general direction
to follow in my search. But it has been of
no use.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I have an idea, Doctor Zarco, Yes, why you're still invisible?
