Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for May 23, 2023

“Run on” plot & sentences.

What happened to Robert? Left behind?

Aroused them guards eh. That foolish Darnot. He had to get them girls along didn’t he.

There’s a vine behind Tarzan. And where there’s a vine…

This whole escape scenario is getting tense.

Escape from this story is immanent.

Well we still have to go through the subplot where Chiram tries to steal the disk from Tarzan.

“You hear anything? Other than the labored breathing of an OF who belongs here like a pork chop in the Knesset?”

Next Tarzan figures out that opening the disc summons the attack apes who are magically bound to the “Father of Diamonds” so he gives the head ape the disc to free them.

And there’s only one way to deal with aroused guards, Chiram.

Those senoot-guards are too busy picking each other’s noses to be aware of what’s about to happen. Tira’s frustrated “scent” must have aroused the rest of the guards. PHEW! that girl really knows how to lay down a stink!

“Otamu drew them off”? I think it’s more like “Edgar didn’t draw them in”… ☺
