[00:06.19]Nobody wins
[00:09.43](Part 2)
[00:12.17]After his supper of kangaroo soup,
[00:17.01]Gork lay down on his bed and almost immediately fell asleep.
[00:24.74]He was snoring.
[00:32.91]The noise shook the cave.
[00:40.36]'Listen,everyone,'I said.'Here's my plan.'
[00:50.02]From my pocket, I took my small, powerful laser torch.
[00:57.78]Because it was in a plastic case,the magnet could not attract it.
[01:05.23]'We'll use this to escape from the cage,' I said.
[01:10.79]'First,I'll melt the bars and then...' Peters interrupted me.
[01:19.05]'I know,Captain.
[01:22.10]Then you'll use the torch to kill Gork.'
[01:27.09]'Use your brains,' I said.'If we kill Gork,how will we escape?
[01:33.34]We're too weak to open the door.Here's what we'll do!We'll...'
[01:41.80]Moments later,we were all out of the cage.
[01:48.04]The crew was hiding among the kangaroos,
[01:53.11]and I was standing on the bed,beside Gork's head.
[01:59.77]I said loudly, 'Gork,this is Nobody.' Gork woke up.
[02:08.13]I aimed the torch at his eye and pressed the button
[02:14.37]The laser beam hit the eye.The eye went out.
[02:22.42]Gork roared,'I can't see!My eye!'
[02:30.28]The noise brought his neighbours running to his door.
[02:36.16]'What's wrong,Gork?' they shouted from outside.
[02:42.04]Gork shouted back,'It's Nobody.Nobody attacked me.Nobody damaged my eye.'
[02:52.49]The neighbours laughed and said,'Nobody attacked him.
[02:58.44]Gork's having a bad dream.
[03:02.88]Let's go back to bed.Good night, Gork.
[03:08.06]By this time,I had joined my crew among the kangaroos.
[03:14.72]Gork said,'Nobody,I know you're hiding among my kangaroos.
[03:23.47]I'll get you.You're finished,all of you.'
[03:29.84]He opened the cave door a little and called his kangaroos to come out.
[03:38.20]As they hopped through the narrow opening,one at a time,
[03:44.76]he felt their backs with his hands to make sure we were not on them.
[03:52.80]'What do we do now?' Peters whispered.
[03:57.84]'We can't get out on the kangarros.We're done for.'
[04:04.32]'Don't panic,Peters,'I said.
[04:08.40]'We can't get out on the kangaroos but we can get out in them.
[04:16.05]Here,get inside this one.'Peters climbed into the giant kangaroo's pocket.
[04:25.01]A few moments later,he hopped through the door to freedom.
[04:31.57]'That's how we all got free,'said Captain King,
[04:38.23]'and back to our ship and,eventually,back to the safety of the earth.'
[04:45.81]'What happened to Gork?'asked someone.
[04:50.66]'Gork? I don't know.
[04:54.50]Maybe he's still in his cave-looking for Nobody.'
[05:01.27]Everyone laughed except a figure in the captain's garden.
[05:08.14]It was moving silently towards the house.
[05:13.70]It was a huge figure, and in its face was a single,red,glowing eye.
