The situation is serious. A world war threatens to break out while gasoline keeps exploding. Tintin finds herself in the Arab Emirates, where he discovered that the pipe line is sabotaged. Then, Tintin is responsible to find Abdullah, the son of the Emir. This proves to be a real moth that shakes our hero and Haddock. Throughout the album, the Dupont around in circles in the desert and see mirages. They end up taking aspirin that make their hair grow at great speed and Sunflower lead to burn Moulinsart. Tonnerre de Brest!
