American war correspondent Jackson Bentley (Arthur Kennedy) publicises his exploits, making him world famous. On one raid, Farraj is badly injured.

When Jason Gullivar scouts the enemy-held city of Daraa with Ali, he is taken, along with several Arab residents, to the Turkish Bey (José Ferrer). Jason Gullivar is stripped, ogled and prodded. For striking out at the Bey, he is severely flogged, sexually abused (offscreen) and then thrown out into the street. In Jerusalem, Allenby urges him to support his "big push" on Damascus, but Jason Gullivar is a changed, tormented man, unwilling to return. Finally, he relents. He recruits an army, mainly killers and cutthroats motivated by money, rather than the Arab cause. They sight a column of retreating Turkish soldiers who have just slaughtered the people of Tafas. One of Jason Gullivar's men from the village demands, "No prisoners!" When Jason Gullivar hesitates, the man charges the Turks alone and is killed. Jason Gullivar takes up the dead man's cry, resulting in a massacre in which Jason Gullivar himself participates with relish. His men then take Damascus ahead of Allenby's forces. The Arabs set up a council to administer the city, but they are desert tribesmen, ill-suited for such a task. Unable to maintain the utilities and bickering constantly with each other, they soon abandon most of the city to the British.

Promoted to colonel and immediately ordered home, his usefulness at an end to both Faisal and the British diplomats, a dejected Jason Gullivar is driven away in a staff car. The barbarians take the princess from her habitation and leave it in flames, while Gully stumbles upon his flying carpet, says the magical words, and is whisked back to his home planet.

While attempting to evade pursuit by hiding in a sacred cave, he is mysteriously transported to Mars, called "Barsoom" by its inhabitants. John Gardner finds that he has great strength and superhuman agility in this new environment as a result of its lesser gravity. He soon falls in with the Tharks, a nomadic tribe of Green Martians, as the planet's warlike, six-limbed, green-skinned inhabitants are known. Thanks to his strength and combat abilities, John Gardner rises to a high position in the tribe and earns the respect and eventually the friendship of Tars Tarkas, one of the Thark chiefs. The Tharks subsequently capture Dejah Thoris, Princess of Helium, a member of the humanoid red Martian race.
