...and the next thing you know, this
Harding is gonna want to turn one of

:07:05
the Terracotta Warriors themselves
into a souvenir vending machine!

:07:08
And the sad part is
:07:09
I'm supposed to negotiate his contract
with the authorities.

:07:12
Believe it or not
:07:13
I used to love Chinese art and literature.
:07:17
But that was a long time ago.
:07:19
And yet...a love which is true can
never really be lost

:07:25
Mr. Orton.
:07:27
No, no. You've had enough.
:07:30
I had...two.
:07:34
-Three... -Three.
:07:39
Listen, you never really told me
:07:42
why you wanted to meet me
in the first place.

:07:50
Right.
:07:59
Your world is in terrible danger.
:08:02
And you are the only person
who can save it.

:08:08
I'm the only...what?
:08:14
We better take a little walk.
:08:19
Life in your world is so wonderful!
:08:23
My world? Isn't this it your country?
:08:25
Yes, but it is your world.
:08:30
Look, they're performing
"Journey to the West".

:08:32
Do you know this story?
:08:33
I just can't seem to get away from
that story today.

:08:35
You know, the original manuscript
has been lost for centuries.

:08:40
I'm actually pretty familiar with that...
:08:43
In college, I had this theory that
"Journey to the West" is hidden...

:08:46
in one of the unopened tombs
around here.

:08:48
I even thought that I'd figured out a way
:08:49
to get past the booby traps.
:08:51
Really. You were a China scholar.
:08:55
Yeah, well, until one day I woke up
and realized that

:08:58
teaching was going to earn me
a total of $25,000 a year...
