What happens
Tarzan and Jane Porter are captured by a cannibal tribe after Jane persuades Tarzan to take her to the cannibals' crawl, where they find signs that her father's party has been there. Meanwhile, Professor Porter, Darno, Clayton and Philander, disguised as medicine men, are trapped inside the sacred temple cave and search for a way out. Jane is seized in a hut and Tarzan is overpowered by the warriors, who bind him with his own grass rope and throw him in a hut. Tarzan, with Jane's help, works loose from the ropes and fights his way out, but the tribe sets a hut ablaze with a fire arrow. Tarzan and Jane are in the hut, and the tribe is gathering to recapture them. The series is Tarzan, from the novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs, with James H. Pierce as Tarzan and Joanne Burroughs as Jane. The episode first aired on November 9, 1932.
A jungle village of cannibals, its sacred temple cave, and the huts and clearing around a sacrificial fire.

Listen for: Tarzan using his teeth to loosen the grass rope binding James, and the arrow that sets the hut on fire.
Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
