The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles: Young Indiana Jones and the Curse of the Jackal

SYNOPSIS

Professor Indiana Jones teaches two young boys to appreciate the history of art while visiting a museum and recalling his youth. He tells them how his father, Henry Jones Sr, was invited to give lectures all over the world in 1908, and, taking his wife and son along, invites his former tutor, Helen Seymour, to teach young Henry Jr. during the trip. On their first stop in Cairo, Egypt, Junior, who prefers to be called 'Indy,' and Miss Seymour, were invited to join an archaeological dig by another former student of hers, T.E. Lawrence (who prefers to be called 'Ned'). While there, a man is killed and a priceless headpiece is stolen. Indiana finally caught up again with this jackal shaped artifact in 1916, after getting himself involved in the Mexican revolution while crossing the border with his cousin, Frank. Having joined up with Pancho Villa, Indy became fast friends with Remy Baudouin, another revolutionary who originally hails from Belgium.
