Raiders of the Lost Ark Scene 10 Summary

Let's Blow Up a Plane!

  • Indy and Marion emerge next to a small airfield, where a plane is waiting to whisk the Ark away.
  • They try to knock out the pilot, but Indy's interrupted by a burly mechanic (Pat Roach) who looks like he moonlights as a circus strongman.
  • Marion gets stuck in the cockpit, but still has the wherewithal to turn the plane's guns on arriving Nazis. She also creates an explosion.
  • Indy's fistfight with Baldo the Mechanic ends abruptly when the bad guy fails to notice an approaching propeller. Ugh—we can't look. Neither can the camera.
  • Indy frees Marion from the cockpit and they flee before the plane blows up.
