“Top men”
As we’ve seen throughout the movie, Indy has his heart in the right place. It’s just that, sometimes, he just doesn’t get what he wants. He’s human. And the audience also gets that defeated—but still OK with it—feeling when the U.S. government takes the Ark and puts it away never to be seen again, kind of (it comes back in Indy 4 briefly). It’s the perfect moment where we understand and love everything about Indiana Jones, the man, and the franchise.
