EXT. THE SMALL BAZAAR - DAY

Indy ducks under the swinging blade of a huge Arabian sword and kicks the Bad Arab Swordsman in the groin.

EXT. SIDE STREET - DAY

The German Agent leads the way as the two Bad Arabs carry the huge basket above their heads. The basket top has been fastened closed, but Marion is making a fuss inside. As the place where the street cuts across the far side of the bazaar, Marion is able to wedge the top open one inch and screams-

MARION

Indy-y-y-y!

EXT. THE SMALL BAZAAR - DAY

Indy has heard her. He looks across the square as the basket and its escorts disappear beyond a building. One last Bad Arab rises before him. Indy’s whip flashes and the Bad Arab’s robe falls down to his ankles. Indy frantically pushes his way through the panicked mass of humanity in the direction the basket has gone. 72 EXT. THE FOOT CHASE - INTERCUTTING INDY AND THE MOVING BASKET - DAY The Bad Guys move the basket as fast as they can through streets, alleys and passageways thick with people. Indy always seems to round a corner just in time to catch a glimpse of the basket before it disappears around a new corner. Indy must fight a flow of humanity as powerful as an ocean riptide. Finally, at the head of one particularly crowded alley, Indy leaps up onto a wall for a clearer view. Whatever he sees gives him an idea and he cuts between two buildings rather than following the basket.

EXT. DESERTED ALLEY - DAY

Two Bad Arabs come running down the alley with the basket between them. Suddenly, Indy’s whip flashes out sending both Arabs and the basket tumbling. Indy steps into view, his .45 trained on the sprawled Arabs, and looks at the basket. The top has come flying off and the contents have clattered onto the cobblestone: inside is not Marion, but a load of contraband pistols, rifles and ammo.
