Buster Crabbe: Barton
Quotes
-
Chief Mahala : And, from what I've heard, the witch doctors each year selected a maiden for the sacrifice. They were brought out here on this sacrificial platform and were hurled into the lagoon to drown.
Barton : Drown? Why? Couldn't they swim?
Chief Mahala : Well, Not very well. You see, they were bound in gold chains and laden down with jewels.
Barton : Well, then all I have to do is bring that treasure up.
Jungle Jim : And what then?
Barton : Well, I'll split with you and Mahala, of course.
Jungle Jim : I'm not interested.
Chief Mahala : I'll have no claim to this evil place.
Barton : I guess it's all mine, then.
Jungle Jim : What about the girl?
Barton : What about her?
Jungle Jim : Her parents died to find this place.
Barton : Look, I'll bring the treasure up while you and Mahala search for the girl. If you find her, I'll let her decide whether she wants to cut me in. How's that?

Barton : From the note the Martindale's left, the lagoon can't be far from this cave.
Jungle Jim : Mahala, this is Barton. He's searching for the treasure in the lagoon.
Chief Mahala : Others have searched - and died.
Barton : Perhaps they weren't as well-prepared as I am.

Barton : So you're Joan Martindale. I'm kinda sorry that Hakim found you.
Hakim : Girl must die; Mahala must die. Hakim will be chief.
Chief Mahala : Hakim will never be chief.
Hakim : [grabbing several gold chains] Hakim make sacrifice - you and She-Devil to Great Power.
Chief Mahala : Why not sacrifice white man that steals treasure?
Barton : [brandishing his pistol] This is why. This is the real power of the jungle.
