Secret of the Sphinx
Danger alert alert! Unidentified luminous object directly in our flightpath.
Well reverse thrust immediately.
Controls not operating: command circuits interrupted.
Sherka go to manual control - fast.
By the countless constellations!
Pyramids!
Pyramids?
Yes they are tombs of the old Egyptian Kings. They go back to ancient times on Earth.
A Sphinx!
The ship the Odyssey is captured. Captured by a giant Sphinx.
Look my daughter here he is this Ulysses.
Here he is at last. At last how long I have waited for this moment. Father I must have him: give him to me I want him.
He will be yours my Hirmaini after he has lost the contest which we have chosen for him.
What if he wins father?
In that case he will be freed and allowed to leave.
No never! You wouldn't do that - I want this man!
My daughter I have no intention of infringing upon the laws of this planet.
But I absolutely must have this man. I want him you understand.
No need to be selfish. To break the law is to destroy our Kingdom.
I would have no pity even for my own daughter if she did that.
Do you really want to have this man?
I want him.
Unlike your father you are ambitious.
My father never does anything for me. I am denied everything.
He even refuses to let me see the mirror that always speaks the truth. He forbids me!
You know very well that the mirror is the secret treasure of your Kingdom.
My father is only a weak old man. He clings to ridiculous ancient principles to conceal his weakness.
But you you are strong ambitious. You represent youth the future.
You are much more worthy to govern the Kingdom than the Sphinx. Set a trap for Ulysses the gods will help you.
Mmm set a trap for him.
Ulysses do you recognise me now do you know how wise I am Ulysses?
He knows your name he called you Ulysses.
They're old friends.
I know who you are you are the Sphinx.
I have been waiting for you a long time.
Traveller you must now submit to a challenge that will determine your fate.
What are these bars?
Telemachus!
You know the law of the Sphinx Ulysses. It is my law and you must obey it.
There's no question of your escaping. Be resigned to it.
I am in the dark what law Ulysses?
Ulysses has disappeared.
Where am I? Why have you taken my children from me man of Egypt?
Have no fear no harm will come to them.
I am ready Sphinx.
Don't let me frighten you I am your friend. I shall see that no harm comes to you trust me.
Who are you what do you want?
Hirmaini daughter of the Sphinx.
Careful Telemachus don't trust her.
I have come to liberate you. Follow me my friends.
The time has come Ulysses.
I am ready.
Ulysses... Ulysses... Ulysses... Ulysses...
Do you know the animal that speaks with one voice that walks on four feet in the morning two at noon and three in the evening?
Tell us Ulysses tell us the name of this animal Ulysses. If your answer is correct you shall go free if not... hahahaha!
Look it is the door that will take you to freedom. Outside you will find a spaceship in which you can escape.
My father! We just can't leave him here like this!
He is waiting aboard the ship. Now hurry before it's too late. If my father catches you you're lost.
All right we'll go.
Give your answer Ulysses. Have you found one?
The animal that walks on four feet in the morning two at noon and three in the evening. I warn you there is only one answer.
Well I have found the answer Sphinx. The animal is man.
Yes: in the morning of life he is a baby and walks on all fours. As a mature man he walks on two legs.
And in the evening of his life with the help of a cane walks on three legs.
Yes you have found it you have solved the riddle of the Sphinx. You are free to go traveller in space.
The Sphinx can do only one thing.
Go Ulysses pursue your quest into the deepest realms of space.
What is all this?
Father you must not set this man free.
Why not?
Because this man's children have gone into the forbidden domain.
What's that? What are you saying?
On our planet there is a door that opens into a forbidden world which no-one may enter
because behind that door stands the Mirror of Truth. That is the true heart of our planet. Your children have gone through that door.
If that is so you will all be punished for I and I alone according to the law have the right to look into the mirror of truth.
You will not keep your promise?
Hahahaha. The situation has changed.
Your children are to be turned into statues of stone the fate of the other travellers who could not solve my riddle.
But you you will remain alive and you will be my slave.
Sphinx I solved your riddle.
Give me one last chance I implore you.
Very will I shall give you one last chance but it is your last.
Father you must not.
However this time I shall allow my daughter to choose your challenge. I believe that will please you Hirmaini.
I am grateful Sphinx.
If you lose you will be my slave for as long as you live Ulysses.
And you will lose!
Now this is what you must do.
Here we are here's the entrance.
Oh Yumi!
You must let them go and right now!
Only one of us is the real Hirmaini. Which? Catch me if you can.
Catch me and you'll be free. Hahaha.
We all have the same powers.
Even I'm not strong enough I guess. Hey I've got an idea.
Kind of complicated. I'll have to break it up.
Thanks No-No.
Me No-No don't forget me come on.
I'm coming coming.
Lets see... which one was it?
Now what are you up to No-No?
Sorry excuse me.
I was suffocating. Let's get out of here.
A mirror!
You are marvellous you move like lightning.
But that's... it's me.
I am the mirror that reflects the truth that lies deep down in every heart. I see your courage your honesty.
The mirror. It's the Mirror of Truth.
The truth? I want to see it too.
Do not fear your reflection. It reflects the true beauty of your heart.
Oh you're so pretty.
Your turn No-No. Come on.
Why you're all glitter and sparkle.
Oh you're just saying that.
Tell me can this mirror help us find out where my father is?
It's that way.
That is not the one.
Telemachus it is this one. It's the...
Now what?
There you see father? I have almost won. A few minutes more and Ulysses will be my slave just as I wanted.
Father!
The mirror Telemachus. Capture her reflection in the mirror.
Yes I will.
She has no reflection!
Look at your true face daughter of the Sphinx.
Oh my child you must not do that!
Do not look at yourself in the mirror!
I am horrible! Is that me? Is it really me?
I reveal your true face. It is the ugliness of your own heart that you see.
Will you ever forgive us Ulysses? I never wanted my daughter to look into that mirror never.
I knew what she would see alas. I knew the harm that it would do.
Telemachus why did you open the door of no return? It is forbidden.
Father she was the one who told us to do it. She said that you were waiting for us on the other side.
Forgive me my children. I will keep my word Ulysses for my law is my law.
You solved my riddle and you met Hirmaini's challenge. Therefore you are free.
Master Sphinx you've made a superb decision.
Say would you like to have a small nail to chew?
Father it was terrible.
Ah you are awake at last my daughter.
Oh oh oh I'm frightened I'm frightened.
Do not be frightened daughter.
I had no idea that my heart was so ugly.
It's the fault of the gods you can be a good child.
Father help me. Help me to have a kind heart. Help me please.
I will help you my daughter my little girl.
So long Sphinx.
See that? Our Ulysses guessed your little riddle anyway it was easy.
No-No you don't know what you are talking about you arrogant robot.
All right now I have a riddle. Listen carefully and try to solve it:
five every morning ten every noon and fifteen every evening; what is it?
Um... oh well it's... another um...
If you can't answer it you'll be turned into a stone statue you know.
Um... well... oh...
I will answer your riddle. It's the number of nails No-No eats in his three meals every day.
Oh Sherka it's the right answer!
Oh go ahead make fun of me!
