Well, that’s a good start.”Ø Pablo to Dr Hafez, Leila, Amalia and Ramon.* “ This is what Leila brought from Cairo.”Ø Dr Hafez to Pablo.* “ Do you think it might not be a royal tomb?”Ø Leila to Amalia.* “ We’ve only got a short time before the inspection.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ I think I have found something.”Ø Leila to Dr Hafez.* “ We need to find a gold mask to be absolutely sure.”Ø Amalia to Dr Hafez and Leila.* “ What a coincidence. The world is a small place.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ You were having a drink in a café in the main square. I thought I recognize the man you were talking to.”Ø Leila to Amalia.* “ I wonder if I should call him on my mobile phone and tell him I would come after all.”Ø Leila to herself.* “ I crept up to the entrance and opened it a bit further. I looked down into the cave.”Ø Leila to herself.* “ Why had I come into the cave instead of calling for help.”Ø Leila to herself.* “ What are you doing here?”Ø Martin Lander to Leila.* “ I saw a light. I thought there was someone in the cave. I came to see what was happening.”Ø Leila to Martin Lander.* “ So we met again Miss El-Assaby.”Ø Martin Lander to Leila.* “ So you’re not a mining engineer. You are just here to steal things that other people have found.”Ø Leila to Martin Lander.* “ But I’m more of a collector. I appreciate fine things.”Ø Martin Lander to Leila.* “ You have disturbed my work, but no matter. I must go now.”Ø Martin Lander to Leila.* “ Don’t try to follow me. I hope you will spend a pleasant night in the company of a great king. And now, goodbye.”Ø Martin Lander to Leila.* “ I’m so glad you are here.”Ø Leila to Dr Hafez.* “ So it was Lander, was it? But how did he find this place so easily.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ We must find the truth and we must find Lander and the artifacts he took from the cave.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ It couldn’t be Amalia. She wouldn’t do something like that?Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ I think I’ve found something interesting.”Ø Leila to Ramon.* “ It’s a king’s mask. It’s like the face of the sun.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila. * “ I soon found out. The gold mask was no longer in the safe.”Ø Leila to herself.* “ Someone opened the door of the safe with a key.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ But how anyone get the key? Have you spoken to Pablo?”Ø Leila to Dr Hafez.* “ I’m afraid that the police wish to take everyone’s fingerprints.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ The police haven’t found the gold mask, but they found this among your work clothes.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ I didn’t steal it. I didn’t steal it. How could this possibly be happening to me?”Ø Leila to Dr Hafez and the policeman.* “ The UNESCO people will not be happy when they hear about this.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ I couldn’t stand it any more.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ Forgive me because it’s my fault you are here.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ By chance, after you found the gold mask, I found the little gold rabbit.”Ø Amalia to Leila. * “ You’re free to go. I’ve got a car outside.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ There is another excavation taking place there. You probably didn’t know that.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “I’m with Leila… .Yes….. they’ve let her go.”Ø Amalia to Dr Hafez.* “ I can’t move. I must have broken something. My leg. It really hurts.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ You must save yourself. Leave me here.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ When you saw me in Quenco talking to him, you probably thought I was working with him.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ I must tell you about Martin in case you get back too late to help me.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ When I learned that the police had arrested you, I realized I had done wrong. I realized what my duty was.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ There was no mine. My father lost all his money.”Ø Amalia to Leila.* “ I understand. I’m so sorry I thought badly of you. I promise I’ll do everything I con to catch that man. And I’ll go to get help now.”Ø Leila to Amalia.* “ I’ve found some help. Those people will help us.”Ø Leila to Amalia.* “ It’s a matter of life or death.”Ø The doctor to Leila.* “ I was suspicious of Pablo.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila, Amalia and Ramon.* “ Let’s set a trap.”Ø Leila to Dr Hafez, Ramon and Amalia.* “ That sounds too dangerous. Let’s call the police.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ I think he is going to the airport. But not to the main entrance.”Ø Ramon to Dr Hafez and Leila.* “ We have to stop him now before he gets back into his truck and shut the gates again.”Ø Ramon to Dr Hafez and Leila.* “ Thank goodness! Now the project can continue.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ You’re not going to show me two strangers sitting at a café, are you?”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ Goodness me. It looks like the pattern of stone Blocks at the Chimu King’s tomb.”Ø Dr Hafez to Leila.* “ I’d like to go back to the village on the road to Acomayo.”Ø Leila to Dr Hafez. * “ That’s great news! She will be pleased.”Ø Leila to Dr Hafez.
