Ep 4. The Seven Crystal Balls (2)

Tintin and his team continue their investigation into the mysterious illness that has struck seven members of a South American expedition. Meanwhile, an ancient curse seems to be coming true as one by one, the explorers fall into a deep coma. Tintin and his friends discover that there may be a connection between the curse and the theft of an Incan mummy from a museum in Europe.

The episode opens with Tintin and Captain Haddock visiting the museum where the mummy was stolen from. They meet with the curator, who reveals that the mummy was known for bringing bad luck to whoever possessed it. The duo is then approached by a man claiming to have information about the curse and the missing mummy. He tells them that the curse can only be lifted if all seven members of the expedition are reunited with the mummy.

Meanwhile, Professor Calculus is quarantined in a hospital after showing symptoms of the illness. Tintin and Captain Haddock visit him and are shocked to find that he too has fallen into a coma. With no explanation for why the curse seems to be affecting those outside of the expedition, Tintin and his friends continue to piece together the clues.

They discover a connection between the expedition members and a mysterious figure known only as Rascar Capac. Through their investigations, they learn that the curse originated in an Incan temple where a group of explorers had stolen a precious artifact. The artifact was believed to have belonged to Rascar Capac, a figure known for his wrath and vengeance.

As Tintin and his team delve deeper, they uncover a plot to steal the mummy and sell it to the highest bidder. They also discover that the illness is not a curse, but a poison that was administered to the expedition members. With this new information, Tintin and his friends race against time to find the missing mummy and the antidote to the poison.

The action-packed episode takes Tintin and his team from the museums of Europe to the jungles of South America. They face danger and obstacles at every turn as they navigate through the complex web of clues and red herrings.
