And I'm back.

 

Ok, I left off last time with all those pics I posted showing I think we could remove lines surrounding Indy saying of Spalko, "That's her ... who is she", which required some complicated edits. One might debate whether those particular edits were entirely necessary, but I didn't like the lines so I worked out a way to remove them.

Now ... onward and upward with the last bit of the scene:

From here we move on to Indy asking, "What exactly am I being accused of besides surviving a nuclear (said as nucular) blast?"

- As an academic, it's highly unlikely that Indy would mispronounce nuclear, so I think this should be removed ... unless someone can find an audio snippet of Ford saying nuclear properly ... preferably not in a Russian accent :) Maybe he says it in interviews on the special features, but I think we can just remove it. I propose we have him say, "What exactly am I being accused of?" and cut if off there.

- After Indy asks, "what exactly am I being accused of?", I propose we skip the next stupid comments by the FBI, saying all of his activities are suspicious including the war, Ross' response about how many medals Indy won, and the FBI asking if he deserves them, followed by Indy's wounded look. I think we should skip from Indy's asking what he's accused of to FBI 1 saying, "Dr. Jones, let's just say for now that you are of interest to the Bureau" but we should cut off the "Dr. Jones", which is said before the camera switches to FBI 1. Now the exchange goes...

INDY: "What exactly am I being accused of?"

FBI 1: "Let's just say for now that you are of interest to the Bureau."

FBI 2: "Of great interest."

And thus we have finally come to the end of the FBI interrogation scene.

PHEW!
