The Mussel Shell Armor of Apanuugpak is the 108th episode of Legends of the Hidden Temple. It was the 119th episode to be aired. Moat CrossingWhen Kirk gave the signal, the contestants had to hop across three icebergs, starting over if they fell or their knees touched the iceberg.
Steps of KnowledgeThe most famous warrior of all the Eskimo tribes was Apanuugpak, who lived in Alaska in the late 1700's. As a hunter, he could stand still for hours so that he could stalk the polar bear and the seal. And as a warrior, he was fearless. One day, he and his wife were approached by a band of neighboring warriors. "You have been fishing on our hunting grounds." "No, I haven't!" "Yes, you have, and we are here to put an end to that right now!" The circle of enemy warriors tightened around Apanuugpak, but he was unafraid. "Ah, your mother wears sealskin boots! Go back over the mountain where you belong, you tundra turkeys!" Without warning, two warriors attacked. But Apanuugpak dodged their knives easily and tossed each warrior aside. A volley of arrows struck his fur parka. But Apanuugpak just laughed. "Try again, seal whelps!" Astonished, the men turned and ran. "Are you hurt, my little snowball?" He opened his parka and showed his wife the mussel shell armor he'd invented. Years later, the armor made its way to the Temple.
Temple GamesThe Red Jaguars are Nikolette, who enjoys gymnastics and science, and Jarrod, who enjoys baseball and studying history. The Green Monkeys are Amanda, who also enjoys science and wants to be a pediatrician, and Gator, who plays football and wants to be a Navy SEAL. Ice Fishing (Oversized Table)[]One of the most important sources of food for Eskimos was ice fishing, wherein they would cut a hole in the ice and fish below; Amanda and Nikolette were under an ice slab. When Kirk gave the signal, both girls would slide under it to sneak up on some fish. After they catch the fish, they must place in their ice bucket; whoever collected the most fish within 60 seconds would win. Although both girls were even, Nikolette missed a fish— this allowed Amanda to edge her out for the win, 4-3. Seal Haven (Trampolines and Nets)[] Some Eskimos believed that all seals should be protected at all costs; Gator and Jarrod were inside a fortress serving as a seal haven, with a safe area at the top for them. When Kirk gave the signal, both boys would toss the plush seals upward until they reached the top, and whoever brought the seals to the save haven within 60 seconds would win. Gator had gotten the lead early on and won with 34 seconds remaining, awarding the Green Monkeys their second half pendant (Jarrod tried in vain to catch up). Enemy Tribe (Bowling Slingshot)[]Apanuugpak defeated the enemy tribe, despite their complaints of him fishing in their territory; when Kirk gave the signal, each team would load their slingshots and launch balls to knock down four rogue Eskimos. The first team to knock down all of their warriors or whoever has the most knocked down within 60 seconds would win; the Green Monkeys scored early while the Red Jaguars stuggled at the end. Eventually, the latter team was able to knock one down to tie the game. Both teams received a full pendant— however, The Green Monkeys went to the temple because of having two Pendants compared to the Red Jaguars' one pendant.
Temple RunWith an artifact residing in the middle of the central shaft, it is pretty clear that Gator and Amanda will need all the luck they can get. And while it is a daunting and time-consuming task, these Green Monkeys will definitely make this temple run worthwhile. Amanda decided to go into the temple first. Moving at a moderate pace, she started by running to The Crypt, where she got lucky as the first book, she pulled allowed her to advance into The Pit of the Pendulum. Quickly grabbing onto the rope swing, Amanda swung down to knock down the column, but she didn't have enough momentum to kick it down. Because of this, Amanda had to climb off the rope swing and instead push down the column with her hands in order to continue.
