Edward The Head said:Odd that they didn't read each others books. I've just finished reading Secret of the Sphinx and Indy outright said that he hadn't been married before.
Junior Jones said:That's a contradiction that's easy to explain: Indy lied. Maybe he didn't want to have to explain, or maybe he didn't want to dig up old feelings again.
Shipwreck said:Readers of my Indy tales might be interested in my upcoming novel, Romancing the Raven. It's a time travel story takiing place in present day New York City and New York of the 1830s. There's no Indiana Jones in the tale, but there is another well known, mysterious character named Edgar Allan Poe. The novel will be out in December and can be ordered early on Amazon.com.

Raiders was 1936 not 1926Feanor said:That's easy.
Raiders, which played 1926, came out 1981 and was written by Lucas.
Dance of the Giants played 1925 but came out 10 years later. Also it was written by McGregor.
So Lucas couldn't consider Indys loss in his book.
But not taking that into account, I guess you could be right.
We never know his motives.
Maybe he just wanted to distract himself. Or he really cared about her. That can happen 20 years ot twenty days after your first true love died.
Ot that's just how Indy is portrayed in the books/film.
Kinda like the James Bond of archaeology. A new girl in almost every new book.
Violet Indy said:But, here's the thing I don't get... In Raiders, it has been 10 years since Marion last saw Indy... That makes it 1926. He married Deirdre in 1925 if memory serves. After what happened with Deirdre, how could Indy have had a fling if he was sooooo upset about Deirdre's death? Did Marion remind him of Deirdre, because she was young and an archaeologist's daughter?
