First let me say, the cat anology... omg.. funny.

I wonder how much of this plot line is on the cutting room floor.
Since we knew why she wanted the crystal skull, yet much of the WHY we had to glean ourselves.
It wasnt laid out. Now, what I would think is that even had they TOLD us straight out, it wouldnt have moved the story along. hence, cut it out, and let us see the Tarzan scene.

What I want to know, was there a REASON we saw the ark?
