The Black Glove of Melchizedek (1x11)

Date de diffusion: Sept 02, 2000

Phileas Fogg comes into possession of a single black glove covered with Cabalistic symbols. The glove, it turns out, is being hunted by two men: a mysterious Cabalistic sorcerer named Vargas, and a Chinese mystic, Zai Chao. Vargas confronts Fogg, threatening Passepartout's life for the glove. Fogg, though, manages to defeat Vargas despite his mystical abilities. Meanwhile, Rebecca has been kidnapped by Zai Chao, and is being used as a hostage to force Fogg to give him the glove. In the final confrontation, Fogg and the others square off against Zai Chao's martial arts fighters. Zai Chao manages to get the glove, but Rebecca shoots him, causing the glove's energy to run wild and reduce Zai Chao's body to a pile of dust and his spirit to a shadow.
