Down
on the ground, the thug that's got hold of Asha is making his way... somewhere.
Chander sees them and does some little rolling ducking move that allows him to
get right up on the guy for a few hits of very obvious fight choreography (I
think the stuntman mostly beats himself up). Chander repeats the process
with another nameless goon (including a finale of slamming the man down onto the
point of a pick-axe) before Ninja orders his men to do something. The blacksuits
take aim with their bows, and start shooting arrows at Chander.
Chander takes all of this in stride, and swats the arrows out of the air with
a shovel. Yes, that's right. He also stops the last arrow with the handle of the
shovel, dramatically lowering it and tugging the arrow free of the wood. With a
determined gaze, he snaps the arrow in half before leading Asha away from the
scene with four additional blacksuits giving chase.
Ninja
sends his two archers to the ground where they hold Mirza and Edward hostage.
Ninja flips and leaps around to the ground before asking who was the guy with
all the hot moves. Mirza confesses that he isn't sure, and that the man in
question is on his first mission.
Back to the chase past the Cartoon Mountains, we see that another two
blacksuits have joined the party and everyone runs through the brush with the
sound of tap shoes on a basketball court. We do this for a while, cutting back
and forth between the escapees and the blacksuits, tap-tap-tapping away in the
woods.
Finally
Asha starts to get the stumbles and complains to Chander that she can't run
anymore. Chander forces her to sit on the ground for a moment, and flicks out
his switchblade knife. He stabs her skirt above her knees, and cuts a slit down
the front. Asha is confused by this (as seen in that fantastic subtitle) but
it's clear as crystal to the rest of us just why he might do such a thing. She
tells Chander that she's going to kill him, and he implies that she's going to
have to wait in line.
They take off again, with Asha able to move much more freely now (not that
she ever says thanks or anything!). The two of them stumble upon someone's
little garden fountain, oops, I mean, a very tall and dangerous waterfall! They
rear back and take stock of their options. Face the ninja hordes that are
rapidly approaching, or leap to an uncertain fate over the cliff.
Chander
decides to take the lesser of two evils, and tells Asha to jump. She says that
it's probably cold, and she doesn't know how to swim. Chander hears this as
"sure thing," and throws her over the edge. With one last look behind him, he
follows quickly behind her.
I have to say, the "effect" here is simply pathetic. No one, and I mean
no one is going to buy this gag.
After the two dolls hit the water in the bathtub, the blacksuits look after
them and see nothing. Downstream, Chander and Asha begin their long trek back
home, and have already started the kind of squabbling that lets us all know
they'll be madly in love with each other in no time.
