All language subtitles for Daktari - S04E08 - The Runaways

Abner, you're a
colossal disappointment.

Why are you mad at Abner?

Oh, I'm not mad at him.

Oh, you guys.

It's just, I've been working
on an experiment with him

for the last two weeks and
it reads negative.

Have to do it all over again.

What does "reads negative" mean?

Well, it means that it didn't work
out, that something went wrong.

If something went wrong,
why are you doing it again?

Well, we usually
learn something valuable

when an experiment goes wrong.
It's all in the name of science.

Daktari never told me
experiments go wrong.

Well, sometimes grown-ups
don't tell children enough,

and sometimes
they can tell them too much.

So you're just
gonna have to trust us.

Now why don't you run along?
I'm very busy.

But I wanna stay here.

Go on, play. Scoot!

Looks like that tranquilizing
solution you put in her food

is taking effect.

Your last check still showed
the same results, huh?

Oh, yes. The milk is infected.
Little Herman has to be moved.

Okay.

Well, at least we can use the data
on the psychological effects

of early weaning.

You think we can get little Herman
to feed alone?

I think so. It might be
to get him a foster mother.

I think we're all right now.

- Good morning, Daktari.
- Oh, hi, honey.

I thought you were gonna have
a poetry lesson with Hedley.

- He didn't come yet. Hi, Mike.
- Hello, sweetheart.

What have you been up to today?

Oh, nothing, just watching Paula make
speriment go wrong.

Oh-ho. Well, let's hope we have
more luck with this... speriment.

Why is she sleeping?
What are you gonna do?

Oh, she's just taking a nap, honey.

We're gonna put Herman
in another cage.

Won't she be lonesome?

Hm-mm. I don't think so, sweetheart.

But you see, he can't have
his mother's milk anymore.

Then can I take him to my nursery
with the other baby animals?

No, Jenny. He hasn't been weaned yet.

Weaned? What does wean mean?

Marsh, she'll be coming too soon.

But what does wean mean?

I'll explain later.
Now, honey, run along.

Here's Hedley now.

Can I come back and see Herman?

Later, Jenny. Later. Now, scoot,
come on, scoot, scoot.

Now, Judy, this is
an out-and-out bribe.

I give you this, and you promise to
stay out of Jenny's lesson for that.

Officer Hedley.

Jenny, Jenny,
bright as a penny.

Well, what do you say,
Jenny, baby?

Shall we have a bash
at the old poetry?

Oh, Hedley, you talk so funny.

What do you mean, funny?

I can explain anything.
You try me.

Well, explain to me
what will happen to a cub

if it's taken from its mother
and it's not weaned yet.

Ah...

Well, you know, animal husbandry's
more in Daktari's line, but...

I can assure you:

Without his mother's milk
he'd probably die.

But let's forget animals
for the time being, shall we,

and get on with the poetry?

Oh, bother, I left my poetry book
in the car.

I'll be back in a minute, Jenny.

Judy, Daktari is taking Herman
away from its mother

and Hedley said
he'll probably die.

Well, after our lesson today,

I'm gonna see Herman,
and see if he's all right.

Marsh, maybe you'd better wait.

Oh, I think it's all right now.

Soon as I get him,
I'll hand him out to you.

Easy, girl,
I'm not gonna hurt your cub.

Easy. Easy, easy....

Yeah, that's it.

All right.

Look out, Marsh.

That was close.
You all right?

Oh yeah, I'm fine.

Dad, what's all that roaring about?

Oh, nothing much. Mama just didn't
appreciate our efforts on her behalf.

She has a low-grade infection.
We had to take her cub away.

- Is it serious?
- No, no, no.

I just started her already
on medication.

She should be all right in no time

but in the mean time
she shouldn't nurse.

Oh, Paula, would you
get Herman for me?

- I'll put him in his cage.
- Sure. What's that for?

Well, as long as she can smell
her cub, why, she should be quiet.

And then Herman won't be distracted
by the sight of her,

- so he can start feeding on his own.
- But won't Herman smell her?

No, he's too young.

You know, Mike, we...

we should get a long rope and tie her
to that log just in case.

All right,
I'll get Herman's milk first.

Okay.

Hey, Paula? Where's Toto?

Miss Pearce should be along
pretty soon.

Take her to Ngoro.

Oh, I haven't forgotten.

When Toto found out she was gonna be
the star of the fundraising party

at the orphanage, she became
the world's worst prima donna.

Will she be able to do the routine
that you taught her all right?

Oh, of course.
She likes to get dressed up.

She just can't resist lording it
over Judy,

so I had to separate the two of them
with a few harsh words.

Well, you better get Toto
and her costume ready.

Miss Pearce should be here
any minute.

Okay.

Ah, here we are.

Now, Judy, you have your bribe.

Take your fruit away somewhere
and don't bother us.

That's the way, Judy!

Away you go.
That's a good girl.

That's right, Clarence.
You get on with your snooze.

You don't bother us,
and we won't bother you.

Now here it is. Now, this is one
of my favorite nursery rhymes.

How far is it to Babylon?

Three score and ten.

Can I get there by candlelight?

Yes, and back again!

What is three score?

Well, a score's twenty, so

three score and ten
is seventy miles.

Oh.
What is Babylon?

Well...

Now look here, you know.

What suited my nursery days are
no good at all now.

I'll tell you what we'll do.

We'll change the poetry course to...

creative rhyming.

Yes. That means that we make up
our own poems

about things we love.

That'll be fun.
You go first.

All right.

Now, the lion
is the king of the beasts.

Because he enjoys
the largest feast.

Because he has
the kind of cunning

that sets the animal kingdom running.

That's wonderful, Hedley.
Do another one. About Judy.

About Judy? Ooh, that's
very difficult. Let me see...

Oh, yes. I know.

The chimpanzee is thought to be

the smartest of the jungle breed.

But actually, and, uh, factually,

such is not its creed.

For though it looks intelligent,
its brain is oft irrelevant.

A chimp's not capable of thought,

and can only do
what a chimp is taught.

Oh!

Gee, Hedley.
When did you teach Judy that?

Hehe, yes. It's all very well
for you to laugh.

Now, go on. You make up
a poem now.

Hmm.

When Hedley fell

he didn't feel so well.

Well done!

You are an extraordinary child.

"You are an extraordinary child."

Well, I think this calls for
a spot of tea. You coming?

I don't drink tea. Besides,
I have to do something now.

Are you coming, Judy?

I didn't mean to be rude,
I got a bit carried away.

All righty. That ought to give you
enough room to move around in.

Okay, young fellow. Your lunch
will be along in a minute.

Well, hello there.

You know something?

I think your face could use
a little soap and water.

You said Herman wouldn't be lonesome.
But he's crying.

Now can I take him to the nursery
with the other baby animals?

No, not yet, Jenny.
He has to be weaned first.

But Daktari, babies belong
with their mother.

Honey, I've already told you,
he cannot take his mother's milk.

Then your speriment's wrong.

I want Herman,
I'll take care of him.

Now just a minute, young lady.

All I want you to do right now
is to go up and wash

and have Paula make you a sandwich.
You just leave Herman to me.

If I leave him to you,
he'll die.

Jenny...

Jenny, I don't know
what's upset you...

but you're just going to have to
trust me right now.

Now run along,
and we'll settle this later.

You're doing a bad thing.
I don't like you.

All right, that's enough.
Now do as I say.

What was that all about?

I don't know.

Well, if this is gonna fail
then I have a more pressing problem

I'd sure find out.
Come on, let's try him on the milk.

All right. Here we go.

Here we go.
That's it.

Yeah. Hey, here now.

Good.

No foster mother for him.

Yeah, looks that way.

Uh, Mike?

Would you mind waiting here
until he finishes?

I want to see what's eating Jenny.

All right.

Thank you, Sergeant. Out.

Ah.

Dad, how's Herman?

Oh, Herman? He's fine.
He's feeding on his own now.

Um, Paula,
have you seen Jenny?

She's resting.

I took a tray in to her.

I guess Hedley must've exhausted her
with his poetry in motion.

Well, it's pretty heady stuff,
creative poetry.

But I must say, Marsh,

I've decided that as a poet,
I'm an awfully good district officer.

Well, I'm inclined to agree with you.

Hedley, would you do me a favor?

From now on, will you tone down
the creative poetry?

One prima donna
around here is enough.

Well, I guess I'd better wash up.

Oh, Miss Pearce won't be here
for hours yet.

Toto, why don't you help me
clean up the dishes?

But... er... Miss Pearce?
How do you know that?

Sergeant Kuwanga called

and said that she'd been delayed,

but she'd make it by dinner time.

Well, I must be off.

Oh, I'll walk down with you.

If Miss Pearce comes,
call me, will you, Paula?

Men...

Well, Señorita Contessa,

as Hedley would say:
There is work afoot.

Come on, help me with the dishes.

Then I called Daktari a bad man.

But he is gonna hurt Herman.

You heard what Hedley said.

Whose friend are you, anyways?

Well, Daktari doesn't know
everything.

Like how a baby feels
without its mother.

You know, it's not like Jenny
to sleep this late.

Maybe I'd better wake her up.

Ah!

Well, hello there.

Ooh, hello.

- Here, let me get that.
- Thank you. I'm sorry I'm late.

I had a flat tire.
I'm a mess.

Well, frankly, on you it looks good.

Thank you.
I'd still like to clean up.

Oh, sure, there's plenty of time.
At least be an hour before dinner.

Good, I'm starved.

Do you think I was bad, Judy?

I guess Daktari
never hurt anyone.

I should apologize.

I bet I get punished bad
for what I said.

All right, if you say so.

You wanna come?

All right, I'll tell him myself.
Then we'll be friends again.

I better comb my hair, 'cause Daktari
always wants me to look pretty.

Thank you.

And if Hedley's sergeant hadn't
come along, I'd still be there.

You'll stay over, of course.

The bazaar isn't
till tomorrow afternoon.

Why, thank you, Paula.
I'd like to.

It'll give me a chance to visit
with Jenny and with all of you.

By the way, how is she?

Hmm, she's marvelous.

And happy, too.

Of course she mixes it
with a little...

touch of occasional
independent temperament.

I might add
she's still asleep.

Maybe after what happened
this morning,

a few extra hours sleep
is just what she needs.

Oh, sure.

And after dinner tonight, Toto is
gonna do her act for us.

Aren't you, Toto?

Am I gonna have trouble with her?

You know it's a long drive
to the orphanage.

Well, she's been acting up
like that lately.

I'll have a little talk with her
after dinner.

What she needs
is a little discipline.

I personally guarantee you,
when you take her to the orphanage,

she'll cause you no trouble.

Everyone seems to
turn in early around here.

I mean, almost everyone.

Yeah, I see what you mean.

You know, one could get
the impression that...

our company is not appreciated.

Yes, one could.

I certainly appreciate the company.

Well, I'm glad to hear that.

Do you suppose that Jenny
is still asleep?

Uh... well...

Why don't we take a look
and see, hm?

Oh, please,
don't wake her up.

Oh, I know she'd like to see you.

Besides, you know...

you might be able to help me
straighten out a certain situation

before it becomes a problem.
Come on.

Listen, young lady.
I want you to stay right here.

Oh please,
Marsh, let her come.

She probably wants to see Jenny too.

Right then. Beautiful night,
beautiful lady, what do we have?

A chimpanzee for a chaperone.
Come on.

Jenny?

Jenny?

Jenny...

Please don't wake her, Marsh.

We'll have a lot of time together
in the morning.

Okay.

Hey, Judy,
you bring that back!

Bring it back, Judy.

Come on.

Now you go off and play.

Toto, it's long past your bedtime.
Now, scoot.

- Would you care for some more coffee?
- Please.

You know, this is a treat.

It really gives a city gal
something to think about.

Well, it gives a country boy
a few thoughts, too.

Thank you.

Do you have a feeling that
there's a conspiracy against us?

Well, I really have to
get an early start.

Thank you, Marsh.

For what?

A cup of cold coffee and
a noticeable lack of privacy?

No, for a lot of things.

But mostly for what you're doing
for Jenny.

Goodnight.

And goodnight to you too, Judy.

Judy...

one of these days you and I are
gonna have to have a long talk.

Goodnight.

Am I gonna have trouble with her?

It's a long drive
to the orphanage.

Well, she's been
acting up that way lately,

but I'll have a talk with her
after dinner.

What she needs is
a little discipline.

I can assure you that
she will give you no trouble

on the way to the orphanage.

Marsh, please don't wake her.

We'll have a lot of time together
in the morning.

Judy, you've gotta help me.

Daktari's gonna send me
back to the orphanage.

Tomorrow.

But it's true.

I heard him talk to Miss Pearce
about taking me back.

Because I made trouble.

So I'm gonna run away.
You wanna come?

Well, all right.

If you went to a chimp orphanage,
I would help you.

I'm going now.

They're all mean around here.

You'll... you'll go?

Good.

But... where will we go?

You got a place?

Oh, good. Show me.

Wait a minute, Judy.

I'll miss you, Clarence.

You're my best friend,
next to Judy.

But you'll understand
when you grow up.

Hey, I almost forgot Herman.

We gotta take him with us, too.

But they're meaner to him
than to us.

If we leave him here, he'll die.

Come on, Judy.

Let's not wake up its mother.

She won't understand.

You're just a baby.
You gotta keep warm.

Show me, Judy.

We gotta rest, Judy.

Herman, I guess you're not
cold after all.

Judy, how much farther
do we have to go?

But it's a tree house!

Oh, Judy, how smart you are.

♪

Oh, Herman. Go to sleep.

What was that?

Don't worry, Judy.
I'll protect you.

I need a pillow, too.

Don't worry, Judy.
I'll protect you.

- Morning, Mike.
- Good morning.

Mike, have you seen Jenny?

No. Isn't she in her room?

No.

No, she must be out
playing with Judy.

That's funny.

She's been looking forward to going
to the village with me for days.

Oh, you know how kids are.

She probably forgot all about it.

Maybe.

Well, I've got to check the vaccine
before I leave.

If she shows up, I'll be in the lab.

Okay.

- Morning.
- Good morning.

Ah... would you, uh,
care for some coffee?

I can guarantee at least it's hot.

Oh no, thank you. Paula brought me
some coffee in my room.

And Toto and I have to leave.

Just one for the road, Toto.

I was looking for Jenny. I did
want to see her before I left.

So have I.

She went to sleep so early,

I guess she must've gotten up
before anyone else.

Probably playing with Judy.
I'll have a look.

Thanks, Marsh.

But we can have a nice long visit
when I bring Toto back.

That fundraising party is
this afternoon

and we do have to leave right now.

Toto, come on.

Here we go.

You sure you have
everything now?

Yes, we're all set.

Well... you got Toto's outfit?

Packed in with mine.

- Be sure you don't get them mixed up.
- Oh, Marsh...

Thank you.

Wish us luck with the show.

I sure do. And if Toto gives
any trouble, just let me know.

I certainly will.

She is the star, you know.

- Bye bye.
- Bye.

Oh, Paula, have you...
Have you seen Jenny this morning?

No, why?

Oh, it's just that Miss Pearce wanted
to see her before she left.

I guess she must be
with Judy somewhere.

Wherever that is. I was
gonna start a new project today.

Can't find Judy.

Well, that's strange,
both of them disappearing.

Look, I don't like this idea one bit.

Paula, check the house. I'll get Mike
and check the compound.

Okay.

I know, Herman.
I'm hungry, too.

Judy will be back any minute.

Oh, I love berries!

Here, Herman.

Judy, we'd better tidy up.

Look.

This used to be Paula's book.

It has her name.

Daktari must've been mean to her
when she was little.

She probably hided here too.

Oh, well.

Herman, you've gotta eat.

Herman needs milk.

Judy, you're gonna have to go
back home and get things.

Be sure, milk.

Cookies would be nice, too.

Be sure no one sees you.

I'll read you a story
until Judy gets back.

It's not very fun here,
but we'll have to stay.

Jenny! Judy!

Jenny! Judy!

Judy!

Judy!

Clarence, have you seen
Jenny or Judy?

They're not in or around the house.

- Any luck?
- Yeah, bad. Herman's missing too.

Uh-oh.

What's the connection?

It's my fault, I'm afraid.

Jenny was worried about Herman
yesterday and I brushed her off.

My guess is she took Herman with her.

Hm. Aided and abetted
by Judy, I'm sure.

That's some trio to be
wandering about the bush.

Yeah, Mike, better get
the blue zebra.

- I'll come with you.
- No, Paula. I want you to stay here

and alert Hedley and his men
to be on the lookout

and see if you can get Bart on
safari. I'll keep in touch by radio.

Okay.

- Roger, Paula. Out.
- It certainly is delicious.

Tell me Mr. Jason. What
are we going after this afternoon?

At your rate, I don't wanna
waste a minute.

Mr. Bixbee, I wonder if you'd mind
canceling your camera safari

for a while. You see,
our little Jenny...

Daktari's daughter?

Yeah, well, it seems like she's out
in the bush, lost and in big trouble.

I'm sorry, I won't agree
to any postponement.

Now look, I don't care if you agree
or not. We're going back.

Unless... unless you let me
come along and help.

Thanks. Let's pack it up.

Well, Judy skipped
her favorite swimming pool.

Yeah. We'd better find them
before they need water.

Oh, Clarence, I bet you're lonesome
without your two pals, huh?

Well, I wouldn't worry about Judy.
She can manage.

Anyway, she's been
out in the bush before.

And dad'll probably find them.

I just hope she can cope with
a seven-year-old and

a baby lion cub to boot.

Well, I guess I'd better go and feed
Herman's mother.

You stay here, okay?
Don't add any insult to injury.

Oh, no.

Could they have come this far?

I don't see how.

Come on, let's get back to Wameru.

Wameru calling Marsh Tracy.
Dad, do you hear me?

Yes, Paula. I read you.
We're just coming in.

Any luck?

No, I'm afraid not.
Anything new there?

Well, Herman's mother is
missing from her cage.

What?

Yeah, and the gate to the cage
is still closed.

I can't figure out how she
could have gotten out.

A nursing lioness,
missing her cub?

Obviously she was able to jump
higher than we thought.

What is she goes looking for her cub?

Do you think she'd hurt
Jenny and Judy?

I mean, if they still have
Herman with them.

Don't worry, Paula.
We'll find them first.

See you soon. Out.

Mama must really be frantic
to have jumped that fence.

Yes. She'll kill anything or anyone
with her cub set on it.

Oh, you sure did find
a good place, Judy.

But if we're gonna live here forever,
we'd better clean up.

Here, Judy. Now clean up.

He's too young. But when he grows up,
he'll do chores too.

Now come on, clean up.

Bet I won't get scared tonight.

As long as Herman
doesn't cry anymore.

Mike, you better take this jeep,
it'll be faster.

All right. I should reach the village
in about an hour.

I'll have the chief send out word
over the drums and come back

- along the river.
- No, Hedley's gonna cover that area.

Listen, why don't you cover the area
between quarters D and G?

All right.

Dad. I was over at the supply shack

to get you this extra canteen
but I found this.

What on earth is that?

Well, it's an old play-hat. I can't
imagine how it could've gotten there.

I haven't seen it since... Well,
since I was Jenny's age.

Well, you used to dress up
when you were a kid, but...

Paula, where did you keep
those clothes?

At the tree house. I was always
afraid you'd laugh at me, so...

I'd go up to the tree house and
play dress up by the hour.

Was that all that you noticed
in the supply shack?

Oh, it was all messed up.

It's not like Bart t--

- Hey dad, you don't think...
- Yes, I do.

- Judy.
- But what about the lioness?

That's what I'm worried about.

You're gonna have to go
back home again.

But Herman needs more milk!

Judy, you're gonna have to trust me.

Judy will be back soon.
Now, you take a nap.

We gotta take care
of ourselves

because grownups get busy and
don't need us anymore.

Daktari asked the orphanage
to take me back.

I don't have a mother
like you, Herman.

But I want one just as much.

Oh, Jenny...

Now I have to be your mother,
so you won't die.

That's why we're staying here.

Don't worry, Herman.
I'll take care of you.

Jenny. Jenny?

Jenny?

Jenny.

Daktari!

Hiya, hun.
Come on. I've come to take you home.

No, you don't want me.

No, Jenny. You don't understand.

Miss Pearce came for Toto, not you.

Uh-oh.

Jenny, quick, hand me down Herman
so I can give him to his mother.

Jenny, do as I say.

Jenny, do as I say.

She won't attack
if she gets her cub.

No, you said, if the cub went
with his mother, he'd die.

Now, Jenny...
You're going to have to trust me.

That lioness is going to attack
any minute.

And my only chance is Herman.

You've got the gun.

Jenny, give me Herman.

I promise you he won't get hurt.

Now you must trust me.

Here. Here's your cub.

Jenny!

Oh, Daktari.

Listen here, young lady. Do you
realize that by taking Herman and--

I did a bad thing, didn't I, Daktari?

That lioness could have killed you.

Yes, you did.

But I'm afraid I did a bad thing too.

I should have explained to you
right away about Herman and

if I'd just had
a little more patience

none of this would've happened.

I didn't understand.

Well, honey, I guess
that's the whole point.

When you love someone,
that means you trust them,

even if you don't und--
I mean,

I get busy sometimes,
I just can't explain right away, but

that doesn't mean you run off
and do something foolish!

I'm so little, and there's
so much to learn.

Oh, even when you're big,
there's still a lot to learn.

Hey, where're you going?

Well, if I did a bad thing
and you did a bad thing,

then Judy must've did a bad thing.

I've gotta go tell her.

You know something?

I don't think it's
gonna be necessary.

How about it.
Shall we go home?

Okay.

Yeah.
