00:00The year is 50 BC. Gaul is entirely occupied by the Romans. Well, no, one small village of
00:11indomitable Gauls still holds out against the invaders, but I'm sure you already knew that.
00:17That's nothing new. Then again, did you know that on this fine day of war hunting, the village's
00:23two most famous Gauls are about to have an unlikely encounter that will take them to the
00:28furthest reaches of the east? You didn't know? Well, hang on to your helmets. Let the journey begin.
00:58I beg you. Help me, please. The Romans are chasing me.
01:11Thank you so much for helping me escape those Romans, Gauls.
01:14Our pleasure, alumni. Is that right? So you came here from Babylon, and your knowledge of
01:20potions got you into this mess.
01:22Yes, that's the reason I was exiled.
01:25Our druid, Getafex, knows all about potions, but he won't even talk about it with people
01:30who fell into his cauldron as children.
01:32You're boring our friend with your stories, Obelix. We're at the village, alumni.
01:38My fish is fresh. It sure knows it's rotten.
01:41Your fish fresh? I'll believe it when I see it.
01:45I've told you a thousand times. Here, take a look for yourself.
01:51Why, Tukatous? You'll pay for that.
01:54Now you've tried it, you can pay for it. That's three sester seeds.
01:57Why would you care? Money doesn't smell.
02:00You're gonna smell my fist on your nose.
02:07Ow, shoot.
02:10Why, Tukatous? What was that?
02:12Not to worry, alumni. Everything's fine.
02:17The conversations that our fishmongers are always very likely.
02:20See you later, Asterix. I want some of the action.
02:23No, Obelix. We need to take our friend to Getafex.
02:26We can talk fish some other time.
02:28Hey, Asterix. Looks like cheap vital statistics is going to see Getafex, too.
02:33Let's go, alumni. You can tell them your tale.
02:42By Tukatous. The Romans have invaded Parthia?
02:47Indeed, attacking Parthia, that's a surprise.
02:50Not really, Asterix. Caesar lost the Battle of Car against the Parthians.
02:54They've become the Romans' sworn enemies.
02:57But the Romans' sworn enemies are bound to be our new friends.
03:00Your bravery is commendable.
03:03When we have time, we should go and tell the Belgians that the Parthians are even braver than they are.
03:08Gauls, there's more to it than that.
03:11As I told you, King Moneypenny is revered and adored by the people of Babylon.
03:16And since the Roman invasion, we've needed him more than ever.
03:21Unfortunately, our king cannot help his people.
03:24He has come down with an unknown ailment.
03:26I'm certain it was Babuzele, the palace scholar, who poisoned him.
03:31I couldn't just twiddle my thumbs, so I did some research.
03:35And found the formula for the poison's antidote.
03:38There are just a few ingredients missing.
03:41However, there's not much time.
03:43The celebrations of Nauru's are approaching.
03:46And if the king doesn't attend, the people will think it's a sign from the gods.
03:50He'll have to submit to the Roman invasion.
03:59There's not a moment to lose.
04:01Asterix, Abelix, go with Arumni.
04:04Take him to Parthia to save his king and his people.
04:07We're going to a party, eh, Asterix?
04:09It's a long journey, Gaulish friends.
04:11And the ingredients for the antidote are rare.
04:14They will be very hard to find.
04:15We're accustomed to it, alumni.
04:17Aren't we, friends?
04:18Here, Asterix.
04:19You'll need this.
04:20Thank you, Ogettafix, our druid.
04:23What about me?
04:24Oh, no.
04:25Sorry, Abelix.
04:27Come on.
04:27There's no time to lose, Dogmatics.
04:30We're off to Babylon.
04:32Time to visit Parthia.
04:33This long crossing's making me hungry.
04:40Here we are, finally back on dry land.
04:43Have you seen that fleet, Asterix?
04:45There must be loads of brand new Romans inside.
04:49Yes, but we have to be discreet for now.
04:51Oh, sir spoilsport.
04:54For now, I said.
04:56Oh.
04:57It's too quiet.
04:59I've got a bad feeling.
05:01Stop right there.
05:03Bow before me, King of the Pirates.
05:06My goodness, the pirates.
05:09Yoo-hoo.
05:10It's us.
05:12You're definitely following our tracks.
05:15King of the Pirates?
05:17Do you hear that, Abelix?
05:18Sounds like someone's been promoted.
05:20That means he earns more slaps, right?
05:24I do, Tartus.
05:25What a fall.
05:26Are you all right, Abelix?
05:28Oh, I'm all right, Asterix.
05:31Are you all right, Dogmatics?
05:35Right.
05:35As long as everyone's all right, we now need to find a way out.
05:39Come on, Dogmatics.
05:41A nice park will do us good.
05:43Ah, animals are not permitted in the baths.
05:52That's the rule.
05:54Dads, show this little dog and its master the exit.
05:59There goes Centurion Oblivious.
06:02For what?
06:02Are you going to ask them for their boar recipes?
06:05What are you waiting for?
06:06Attack!
06:07Did you leave a robot for me, Dogmatics?
06:29That's so sweet of you.
06:32Look, sorry, but animals are not allowed in the baths, you see.
06:36Yeah, that, that, uh, that's the rule.
06:40Well, your rules don't wash with us, Robin.
06:45Ouch!
06:48Look, Dogmatics has found the red cardamom.
06:52Bravo, Dogmatics.
06:54Who's the cleverest doggy then, hey?
06:57Luck is on our side.
06:59This ingredient is extremely rare in this region.
07:02Let's go.
07:03The king doesn't have much time.
07:04Look, Asterix.
07:08There's a big pile of Romans over there.
07:11They really are everywhere.
07:13It looks like they're coming out of that big tomb.
07:16I've got a hunch they're trying to pillage that ziggurat.
07:19Hey, you two.
07:21What are you looking at?
07:22Jealous of my chariot?
07:24Jealous of that two-wheeler?
07:25Shut your trap, Roman.
07:27Anyway, this country's too small for any other drivers with me.
07:32Does he think Parthia's too small or I'm too fat?
07:36Shall we take care of him, Asterix?
07:38You make me laugh with your ridiculous clothes.
07:44Come on, take that chariot and we'll have a race.
07:46I could do with the distraction.
07:49Asterix, tell me we're finally going to be able to eat properly in this town.
07:55Absolutely, Omelix.
07:57We deserve a little lunch break.
07:59You hear that, Dogmatics?
08:01We're finally going to eat.
08:06Oh no, look who's here.
08:09More Romans.
08:11Oh, well, you know what, Asterix?
08:13Before a hearty thing, Romans really helped not wet the appetite.
08:19Look, the gardens of Babylon.
08:23Babylon.
08:25When you say it like that, it has a nice ring to it.
08:28Whoops.
08:29Oh, I think I was gripping something.
08:33Who dares trample my Isfahan Rose?
08:37You will pay for this offense.
08:39Calm down, my friend.
08:40We're not here to start a turf war.
08:43You have soiled the sacred flower.
08:45You will know my wrath.
08:50I feel we're on for another round of slacks.
08:54No, Omelix, we need to find another way to calm this gardener down.
08:58Hang on.
09:06Have you been watering my flower beds this entire time?
09:10You finally realize, gardener.
09:12We never meant to destroy your gardens.
09:16You have great fingers and a generous heart, Goll.
09:19I owe you an apology.
09:21Apology accepted, gardener.
09:23But time is short.
09:25And we are here because we seek a very rare flower, an orchid, to save King Moneypenny.
09:30The king is in danger.
09:32Here you go.
09:33The orchid is yours.
09:35I beg you, do whatever it takes to heal our good king Moneypenny.
09:39Look, the festivities are already in full swing.
09:46Looks like Dogmatics has found something.
09:48Oops.
09:50Look, Obelix.
09:51The merchant.
09:53What?
09:54Is he selling boar or...
09:56Oh, blue salt.
09:58Is it salt you're looking for, foreigners?
10:00I tell you now, I only accept hard cash.
10:04Hard cash?
10:05Sorry, merchant.
10:07We only have salt.
10:12Embedus, help!
10:14The goals!
10:15I'm here, Sudokus.
10:21Calm down.
10:22You can go back to your crosswords and leave this to a true warrior.
10:26Yes, right.
10:27If you need me, I'll be down there at the back, working on a strategy.
10:32Stop there, Golls.
10:33Not another step.
10:38Ah!
10:42Ah!
10:45Limbitus, our finest warrior.
10:49Was that really your finest warrior?
10:53B-b-b-b-but how did you beat her?
10:56Well, like this.
10:58Ouch!
11:00No!
11:06The storm is raging, Obelix.
11:08Let's take shelter.
11:09Well, it's a bit late now.
11:11We're already covered in sand.
11:13It's so hot.
11:15Where are we?
11:17Asterix, I'm hard.
11:19I'm not sure where we are, Obelix.
11:21But I think we'll be arriving at the Earth's core soon.
11:24I feel like I've fallen into a cauldron again.
11:28Except this time, I'm the potion.
11:30What is it, Dogmatics?
11:33Did you find something?
11:35The oil.
11:36He's found the rock oil.
11:39Wonderful.
11:40Well done, Dogmatics.
11:41Oh, what a good doggy finding the oil.
11:44Yes, you are.
11:45You know what, Asterix?
11:49I could really eat a boar.
11:52Or maybe more like ten.
11:54There's nothing but snakes and scorpions in this desert, Obelix.
11:58Oh, I've got nothing against local produce.
12:01As long as you can eat it.
12:03Ha!
12:03Ha!
12:04Look behind you, Obelix.
12:06What?
12:07Oh, who?
12:09No, it's a Roman chariot heading straight for us.
12:12Faster!
12:13Ha ha ha ha!
12:14You won't get away from me, Dogmatics!
12:17Quick, Obelix.
12:18We can't afford to waste time on this Roman.
12:20Slow down, I tell you.
12:22Come back!
12:23Don't act like you can't hear me.
12:25That's how it's done.
12:28Ah!
12:28You won't hit me so easily, Dogmatics.
12:33Ha ha!
12:33My armor dazzles you, Seven Ghasts!
12:37You'll never hit me!
12:39Obelix, do you want to try and hit him?
12:41Just to see?
12:43I'll try, Asterix.
12:44Just to see.
12:46Promise.
12:47Ah!
12:53And so, that's when you lost sight of them, Oblivious.
12:58Yes!
12:59Oh, Caesar.
13:00But don't worry.
13:02We are...
13:02We are...
13:03Enough!
13:03You're a bunch of idiots.
13:05So, it's true.
13:07We thought the Gauls wouldn't dare attack us.
13:09And then, well, they came and attacked us.
13:13But I must say, they did make it clear that they had it in them.
13:16That's enough.
13:18Send the rest of my legions to Parthia.
13:20Those cursed Gauls who won't have the last word.
13:23I'll take care of it, oh Caesar.
13:25Just you wait and see.
13:27I won't let you down.
13:29Stay here, Oblivious.
13:30I want to keep you in sight.
13:31Huh?
13:33What?
13:33Oh...
13:34Fine.
13:35It's up to you.
13:36Where's the Parthian scholar?
13:42Bamboozele.
13:43I'm depending on you.
13:45Make sure you do not fail.
13:47Your wish is my command, oh great Caesar.
13:51Count on me to put an end to Parthia.
13:55You seem a little tense, alumni.
13:57Are you alright?
13:58Hmm, I understand.
14:01I don't like people watching me, either.
14:04Anyway, I was wondering,
14:06is it dangerous if you spill a drop of that?
14:10Obelix, be quiet.
14:19There.
14:20It's perfect.
14:22My friends, we're finally ready to be done with all of this business.
14:26Onwards, for the king and for Parthia!
14:28One thing's for sure.
14:31We're not going to let the Romans win Parthia.
14:37Here's the king.
14:38Quick, we have to give him the antidote.
14:41Wait, stop everything.
14:43You've forgotten the most important ingredient.
14:45These hemlock flowers.
14:47Without them, your antidote would never work.
14:51Don't listen.
14:52It's Bamboozele.
14:54I recognize him.
14:55He's trying to...
14:56Bamboozele us.
14:58He's the traitor who poisoned our kingdom.
15:03Perceptive scholar.
15:04Yes, it's me.
15:05Bamboozele.
15:07Hehehe.
15:08Baraka-da-braa.
15:09He must be stopped.
15:14We'll take care of it, alumni.
15:16Stay safe.
15:17With Caesar on my side, the Parthian Empire will be mine.
15:22Hehehehehe.
15:23Ahep.
15:23Hehehehehehehe.
15:29Oh.
15:31Oh.
15:32Oh.
15:32Oh.
15:33Oh.
15:34Oh.
15:34Oh.
15:35Oh.
15:35Oh.
15:36Oh.
15:36Right.
15:36That's done.
15:37You may think you've won, Gulls, but wait until you see my secret weapon.
15:44The course is clear, alumni. Hurry up and give the king his potion.
15:48What? What's this? Oh no, this isn't the right potion.
16:07Whew. Rest assured, Gulls. There's no reason it won't work.
16:15No, of course.
16:30Try some, Obelix. This is a Babylon boar.
16:33Boar? This is boar? Oh, I just love discovering local fishes.
16:38Ah, bravo, Gulls. Curiosity is a virtue.
16:42So, alumni, what will you do now?
16:44I shall continue to serve my king. I want to study new potions, heal, help, be useful.
16:51I'm sure you'll do that very well.
16:55Welcome, people of Parthia. What a joy to be with you tonight.
17:00And it's all thanks to my faithful alumni and his Gaulish friends,
17:06who on top of waking me from my stupor,
17:09repelled those Roman invaders beyond our borders.
17:13May they be warmly thanked on behalf of all the Parthian people.
17:17Hey!
17:18Our two famous Gauls are finally home in Amorica,
17:30safe and sound.
17:32And, as always, it's going to be a long night full of laughter
17:36and regaling stories around the traditional banquet.
17:41Always keen to learn, the druid Getovix asks Asterix to tell him all about Parthia.
17:47Between boars, Obelix tries to describe eastern cooking.
17:52Vital Statistics wants to know if the Babylonian sheeps have porters like in Gull.
17:57The atmosphere is friendly, as always.
18:01And, as for Cacophonix, the Barb.
18:04He has been politely gagged and tied to a trick to the benefit of all.
18:10And, as always He is truly seeing you, he's coming out with luid Getovix answers,
18:18wasnames.com
18:18Taste of 2005
18:19Love,cenier.com
18:21Love,senial.com
18:24And, as always, we are all with the two computers toах of Christmas to어�ask Perthia.
18:28Forbdotus, dadrotti, how many of us start with the abolition of Bhatia?
18:29And, as always, we are away with the油 of theluk of Natalie.
18:32Not the same way as the audio-like lymphators.
