: First, in the "Last Crusade", when Marcus is knocked over the head by the religious fenatics and the drag him away, how does Indy later find him, or if he even looked for Indy himself, how does he find Indy.
: Second, the religious fanatic tells Indy his father is locked in the castle. Now if the Nazi's looked him in there, how does the fanatic know where he is. They definatly are not working with the Nazi's, becouse they do not want them to find grail either.
: Third, in the interview at the end of ToD, they big three say that the mine car chase was origionaly ment for Raiders. Now where exactly was this going to go.
: Ja Le Ka Ce

First, I'd say that Indy's whole catacomb adventure occured under the library, and after it was over, he emerged from the sewer just outside it. As far as Indy knew at that point, Marcus was still inside the church (which is correct). I'm guessing they most likely went back in to get him anyway and were quite surprised to find him unconscious. From Indy's POV, all he knew was that there were running rats and then a big wall of fire in the catacombs.

Secondly, all I can say is know thy enemy. Unlike Dr. Jones, who is a single individual and can be dealt with "easily" (i.e. death ), the Nazi's are a large organization. They can't hope to stop them simply by killing them. Hitler would just send more and more guys down there until he finally overran them with a whole Panzer division :) I'm sure the fanatic's organization has been monitoring the Nazi progress for a long time, and as such has gathered info on other areas of their grail operation ( Henry Sr.'s kidnapping ).

Third...didn't Belloq have rome kind of rail tracks going around part of his encampment w/ the Nazis? It's been a while since I watched Raiders so I'm not sure but I think he did...could be wrong though.
