The screams were mostly from young women. • Phileas knew what that meant. This is the time for the sacrifice. • Phileas, Passepartout and Francis go near the rear of the temple to not surprise the Hindu or make the situation worse. • Then, Passepartout had a brilliant idea, and he went to go jump near the lowest branches of a tree. • The party was now over and the people came out very intoxicated.
