History
Raiders of the Lost Ark
In 1936, Satipo and Indiana Jones entered the Temple of the Chachapoyan Warriors, in Peru. The aim of the expedition was to look for a golden idol. After a fearful encounter with tarantulas, Satipo followed Jones in swinging across a pit on Indy's bullwhip.
After Jones acquired the Chachapoyan Fertility Idol, he accidentaly triggered the temple's booby traps, and ran out of the room with Satipo following him. The greedy Satipo betrayed him, stole the idol and left Jones to die.
The time when Indy threw the idol to him, he started to betray him but gets killed by a spike trap anyways.

Trivia
- The Nostalgia Critic says "What crazy f*cked-up a**hole invented these things?" in reference to Molina playing Satipo and Octavius, and then he says "Oh yes, the crazy f*cked-up a**hole was the raider who stole the idol in Raiders of the Lost Ark but I guess he had it coming."
