Sinbad Ep 2

We pick off exactly where we left. Our merry band of sailors are trying to learn how to sail. Cook is yelling and giving them lessons. At one point both Nala and Rina are getting nowhere hoisting a sail. Actually it was quite amusing. Rina was practically hanging in mid air, way to light to pull the rope.

They hit land and before going over during the night some creepy kids in heavy make up invade and take them prisoner. Dragging them onshore we are introduced to this weeks:

Big bad - Razia queen of the water thieves. It turns out the tribe are slightly cannibalistic. Razia however has some carnal desires and decides she wants a little bump and grind with Gunnar. Sinbad naturally can't have that. He's the hero after all so in an utterly charming speech - "Im Sinbad, you will never forget me" Elliot Knight - Nailed it!!!!! She chooses him instead and orders that the rest will fight each other later on.

Romantic Action - Sinbad gets it in with Razia and discovers she has a magical bird chained up in her den.

Meanwhile - Anwar, Nala and Rina are caged in one cell and Gunnar in a seperate one. Why who knows. One of the tribe comes and torments them saying Anwar and Gunnar will fight each other. The norse man refuses. Anwar also isn't warm on that idea. Neither would I if they wanted me to go up against Gunnar. Anyhoo Rina then offers to fight Anwar - que more hilariousness.

Razia leaves Sinbad locked up and returns to the Tribe for "dinner and entertainment." To punish Gunnar for not fighting they seemed to have dressed him up as a mermaid and were making him pour out drinks.

Rina and Anwar - fast becoming my fav characters. They bounce off each other brilliantly and are polar opposites. The fight starts and Anwar just stands there refusing to hit her on grounds that shes a woman so Rina beats the crap out of him

Sinbad meanwhile has a chilling conversation with Razia's son, where he discovers what happens to Razia's men after she's finished with them. Pretty much spit out to dry and made into trophies around her bed. He then manages to make an escape. Good thing too as the sun will be coming up and his curse kick in.

But being our lovely hero he goes back to rescue everyone regardless of the curse, just in the nick of time as Rina has Anwar under her in a choke hold hahaha.

Gunnar is epic - Gunnar snaps out of  his waitress duties, Shows off some of his warrior moves and they all get into a fight with the Tribe working together this time and end up taking Razia's son hostage. This leads to an exchange that shows the tribe Razia has a weakness and our hero's escape back to the boat except Sinbad who goes back to free the bird. Interesting as the creature didn't seem that impressed with him earlier.

This works to his advantage though when Razia catches him up intend on ending him for wrecking her reign. He jumps of a cliff and the bird no longer hostile and happy with his freedom catches him, drops him back at the ship and provides some much needed wind to get the boat sailing in escape.
