Quote #10
[Faces melt]
What makes this a terrifying but wildly satisfying scene is that the bad guys get what's coming to them big time while the good guys survive. Not only that, but they get it from God Almighty himself. How validating is that for Indy?
Quote #11
"We have top men working on it right now. Top. Men."
We're not entirely sure that the two U.S. Army Intelligence offers are on team Good Guy here. What are they doing to the Ark? Why won't they tell Indy what's happening to it? Like the others, they eventually choose a side. Keeping the Ark locked up is probably the right call, but there's more ambiguity with them than perhaps any other figures in the film.
