S01E08: Resurrection
The elders check some of the words in the wall that speak about ""The Boy of the Promise"". Cole thinks that Will may be that boy and that they should claim him. Balaam and Malakai do not think so, but they agree to send John to find out if Will is fine. When Cole calls Andrew to tell him about this, Andrew starts to feel sick and soon later he passes out. The village doctor wants to help, but Karen and Pia do not trust him and they send him away. The doctor, however, comes back with more people and they take Andrew out of the village, fearing that he may have some contagious disease. Karen brings Prudence, who gives Andrew some medicine and then asks Karen to leave them alone. Korakal tells Will that Jakuki and him must perform a ritual in order to die as children and become men. He send them out with the Shaman. Later, John is captured by the Shaman and others. Cole and the doctor come back for Andrew, who seems to die in front of them.
Overview
Amazon was a syndicated television show created by Peter Benchley. It was developed by Canadian production companies Alliance Atlantis Communications & WIC Entertainment and German company Beta Film GmbH. The 22 episodes of the series were in first-run syndication between 1999 and 2000.
The drama series focused on the six survivors of a crashed airline flight in the Brazilian Amazon jungle. The group soon comes into contact with a Native American tribe, and relations are anything but friendly. The group is taken in by a mysterious tribe, who descended from 16th century British colonists who were lost in Amazon. Relations with the Chosen are tenuous at best. Most of the group escapes the Chosen only to stir up a hornets nest with a tribe of cannibals, led by an insane American woman bent on domination of all the local tribes. The first season ended in a cliff-hanger, and a second season was never produced. The series retained sufficient interest that it was released on DVD in 2011.
A novelization of the 2-hour pilot was written by Rob MacGregor, and a mass-market paperback was released by Harper on 8 Aug 2000.
The German title was Amazonas - Gefangene des Dschungels.
