Mysterious Cities of Gold: Season 4 episode 1 - Lalibela

 

The whole of Gaul?

Finally, season 4 have been shown on French TV and the story can finally continue. Of course it's in French, but someone have uploaded the first episode with english subtitles so I can at least follow along. A bit better than the auto-generated subtitles from Youtube themselves, although the white colour of the text blends in a bit with the africans white robes and such. And where is the third season blu ray so I can get them physically? It doesn't even stream so how am I to get my hands on it?

Story meanwhile continues directly after the end of the third season. An African village in Ethiopia wakes up as Ambrosius launches sleeping gas bombs on the people and then puts down some machine. The next day when our heroes arrives they awake the villagers and start exploring. Tao and Estaban finds a church in the rock where the machine have been placed, but it turns out to be a trap since it's a machine that creates an earthquake in order to bury the whole church since it apparently contains wall paintings relating to Mu and the 5th city of gold. Apparently Ambrosius have been here before and found some clues and wanted to destroy the clues so that they couldn't follow and maybe even get rid of our heroes. The villagers escape their crumbling village and Estaban and Tao follows a group of rats toward an airduct to the top of the church and then disappears as the building crumbles to the ground., ending the episode.

The documentary is about the inspiration of the church that exists in Ethiopia. Then it was a short bit about some game with stones that you drop into holes in order to get the most stones. Somehow I feel we had a version of that game, but with marbles instead of stones. Don't recall what it was called though.

Not much else to say about this episode. Bit miffed that the kids fell into the trap since it was rather obvious, but what are gonna do to push the plot forward?
