encounters an imprisoned Kuraki, which is not depicted in the book. Kuraki tells Tintin about Allan's plans; in the book, Tintin sees the drugs firsthand. Unlike in the book, Captain Haddock does not start a fire on the lifeboat that he, Tintin, and Snowy used to escape the Karaboudjan. The plane crash before the desert is also changed. In the book, Haddock is drunk and hits Tintin with a bottle before taking over rowing himself. In the adaption, the pilot attacks Tintin. The other pilot featured in the book does not appear. As in the 1950s adaptation, the ending is rewritten, replacing the fishing net with a rope. "Destination Moon" The episode starts with Tintin, Snowy and Haddock landing in Syldavia. Cuts are made solely for time, such as Tintin's misadventure with a pack of bears, Haddock's tantrums over the space trip, and a few other incidents like a false fire alarm. The episode's ending is taken from the beginning of the book's sequel, "Explorers on the Moon", where Tintin, Captain Haddock, Professor Calculus, and Wolff awaken after take-off. The book ends in a cliffhanger with the radio crew calling them and receiving no response. "Explorers on the Moon" Since the opening to this story served as the ending in "Destination Moon", the episode begins with the crew in the control cabin. Tintin's attempt to rescue Haddock from his impromptu spacewalk around the asteroid Adonis is made more dramatic and heightened than in the book, with both of them getting pulled into orbit and Tintin having to use a grappling iron to return them to the rocket. Snowy's rescue from the cave is omitted. The role of the spymaster behind Jorgen is reduced. Captain Haddock is seen drinking alcohol, setting up the scene in which he leaves the rocket drunk. He does not hide the bottle in an astronomy book, as he did in the book, but keeps the bottle in the refrigerator. "The Seven Crystal Balls" The episode begins with the Seven Explorers of the Sanders-Hardiman Expedition finding the Mummy of Rascar Capac. This is only referred to in the book. Following the chronology of the books, Jolyon Wagg does not appear until "The Calculus Affair". In the TV series, episodes of "The Calculus Affair" aired before "The Seven Crystal Balls". When the episodes are viewed in that order, Jolyon's appearance is credible. The character of Mrs. Clarkson is
