She tries to bomb the field to get rid of Sargon, but he returns one and destroys the dirigible. Suddenly Sargon awakes and realizes the whole strange encounter was only a dream. He reasons the Blue Lama's appearing in his dreams because tomorrow he's going to testify against her gang at trial. Suddenly he finds himself in an ancient Aztec city, about to be offered as a human sacrifice to the sorceress.
Sargon wakes up again and goes for a walk, finding himself face-to-face with the Blue Lama again. She entangles him in a magic cape. He thinks nothing of this, deciding it's just another dream, only for Blue Lama to tell him she sent those other dreams to lull him into a false sense of security as part of this elaborate trap. She transports them to a fantastic temple like the one from his dream, but Sargon creates an army of trees to attack Blue Lama. She suddenly disappears, and confused that what he thought was real was only a dream, and what seemed like a dream turned out to be real, Sargon can only let her go and be ready for their next encounter. | Appearing3 = **Featured Characters:** *Sargon) **Supporting Characters:** * Maximillian O'Leary) **Antagonists:** * Blue Lama) **Other Characters:** * **Locations:** * **Items:** * **Vehicles:** * -->
