That's funny.

That's funny.

I know I'm due back at the compound, Dr. Harry.

But Clarence and Judy have taken off.

As soon as I find them, I'll come home.

The mirror, the mirror.

The mirror.

Harassing?

Okay, okay, I get the message. You want to be friends, huh?

But don't wreck the car. It's a rental.

Hello there.

I heard your horn.

Are you all right?

I just had a little accident. I sure could use some help.

Give me a big, ferocious roar.

Come on, Clarence.

How often do I get a chance to rescue a beautiful woman from a ferocious lion?

Come on.

Clarence, come on. Don't you get the message?

Scram!

Miss Baker.

Thank you, Miss Tracy.

So, you're on your way to see my father when you had your accident.

Yes.

You see, I'm from the Afro -American Cultural Foundation.

I have a letter of introduction to your father from our executive director, Mr.

Cameron.

Well, hello.

If you're the little fellow from the jungle, you've shrunk.

No, that was Judy.

This is Toto.

Well, tell me, how are you feeling?

I'm more present than counted for, so I guess I'm all right.

Good, I'm glad to hear it.

Hey,

I've got to thank that fearless, handsome hunk of man who fought off that

vicious lion.

Well, that gallant gladiator happens to be Mike McCool, our dad's research

assistant. And that vicious lion is Clarence, our family pet.

Family pet?

Do you mean... this Makula was putting me on with that lion killer thing?

Well, you're so pretty you can hardly blame him for not trying to impress you.

Impress me?

He almost turned my head gray.

Hello, Miss Baker. How are you feeling?

Well, I'm still alive, no thanks to you.

I know all about that lion tamer act you pulled on me, Mr. Makula.

Very funny.

Miss Baker, I'm sorry.

Clarence and I were only...

Just having a little fun.

Do me a favor, will you?

Hmm?

Pretend you and I never met.

Oh, Miss Baker, please. I don't... Miss Tracy, now that I have survived my

jungle initiation, I'd like to talk business with your father and she'll

and run me. Fine.

Frank?

That's some woman.

for our sudden downpours.

But this is our dry season.

Your dry season? Mm -hmm.

Yeah, we get quick showers.

Well, what happens during your wet season?

Well, then we get beautiful clear days, but when it does rain, it rains and

rains and rains.

See, it's starting to stop already.

Oh! That's just plans.

Well, good boy.

Look up and give Miss Baker a big smile and tell her you're sorry for scaring

her.

Who could turn down an apology like that?

That's a good boy.

I see Bo has the coffee out. Would you like a nice cup of coffee?

You know,

it's amazing.

So many of your animals seem to be just roaming around free.

Well, we just keep them on leashes.

You mean like flowers?

Well, no, no. That's just sort of a different story.

We're so lazy and stubborn that it's about the only way we can get them to

Well, tell me, Miss Baker, just what can we do about it?

Well, our foundation wants to dramatize the link between Africa and America. And

I'm in charge of setting up an authentic African village back in the States.

See, arts and crafts, that sort of thing.

More than that.

An animal company, like yours.

I want to buy some of your animals.

Some lions, a hippo, a giraffe, maybe a chimpanzee.

Wait a minute.

You know, we're a research center, not a market place.

Doctor, surely you can catch some more wild animals and train them.

Yes, I suppose we could arrange to send you some animals, but if I did, who

would take care of them in the States?

Oh, I'd hire an animal keeper.

Oh, no, that's out of the question.

Now, you see, you're not planning a zoo for what you want and what I would agree

to.

You'd need a skilled trainer, someone highly experienced in infection

Jack needs you at the experimental arena.

Oh, thanks, Mike.

Say, Mike, Baker and I got caught in the rain. Would you take her on a tour of

the rest of the compound?

I do.

Baker, you'll be in very good hands with Mike.

Miss

Baker,

I'd like to...

Make it up to you. Well, that little axe Clarence and I put on.

Well, all right.

On one condition.

That you call me Lee, like all my friends do.

All right.

Lee.

She means feed our animals.

All sorts of pharmaceutical products.

Vitamins one day, something else the next day.

Fascinating. Just to see how they react nutritionally.

Yes.

Who's that?

Oh, that's Ethel.

Ethel?

She's, um, lovely.

Oh, you think so?

Well, wait until you meet Margie.

Miss Artari's been trying to teach the African elephant to do heavy work the

she does.

Any luck?

Not yet.

Our local elephants don't seem to be getting the message.

And there you have the trouble with the world today.

Poor communications between natives of different continents.

Just what my foundation is trying to correct by shortening the distance

Africa and America.

Well, I'm all for that. If there's anything I can do to be of help, Lee.

Do you really mean that?

Of course.

Mike?

How would you like to come to America with me?

Set up our animal compound.

Are you serious?

I've never been more serious in my life.

Mike!

Mike, those reports just came in.

Okay, be right there.

Excuse me a minute. Don't go away.

Oh, by the way, your station wagon is back in shape.

Who fixed it? I did.

Now I know how much I need you in America.

Do you have any idea how rare a good mechanic is?

Go play, kid.

So you're Judy.

I just bet you had a ball scaring me out of my wits back there in the bush,

didn't you?

Okay, go on, shoo, before you put the car on the fritz again.

Say, I know what species you are.

Grease monkey.

You're all like sourpuss, aren't you?

I don't blame you. It was pretty corny.

But you are awful cute.

You know, if we brought you back to America, wow, I bet everybody would just

love you.

Lee?

I was telling Dr. Ari about your offer.

Well, Dr. Tracy, you did say to go find an affectionate animal trainer.

What do you think of my plans to take him away from you?

Well, Miss Baker, I think it's wonderful you're offering Mike this opportunity.

If Mike were in charge of your compound, I'd be delighted to cooperate.

Well, then you would have no objections to his leaving?

No, of course not.

It's not my decision. It's strictly up to Mike.

Mike?

Isn't there more for me to see?

Oh, yes.

Marsh, Boulder, excuse us?

Certainly.

I sure hate to lose him.

You know, Africa needs skilled people like Mike.

Well, I guess it's all for the best.

I don't know, Dad.

Everything's happened so fast.

What do you think, Judy?

Judy, I think it's just that you don't want to see Mike leave.

That's how I learned to drive.

Oh, Mike, that's a wonderful story.

Lee, let me warn you of one thing. This character is only amusing after a good

meal. Oh, yes, Paula, that was a terrific meal. Oh, thanks, Sleep. I'm

I'm a lot better preparing alfalfa and molasses and bran mash for the animals.

Don't worry, honey. When Mike and I get to New York, we'll send you the latest

cookbook. All right.

Lee, after a big meal like this in the bush, nobody discusses business.

We relax and enjoy ourselves.

Right, as Officer Hadley would say.

Yeah, yeah.

Yes, Mike is absolutely right, Lee.

In this house position, I prescribe a little entertainment.

It's about ready, isn't it?

Yes, sir.

Yeah, we bring on the dancing girls.

Ladies and gentlemen, at this time for your entertainment at absolutely no

expense to the management, we present the fabulous Jolly Mister.

Ladies, you're on.

Say, there's a striptease that is with...

Well, ladies and gentlemen, we do thank you for your kind indulgence.

Guess we better send them back for more rehearsals.

Well, I'm afraid it's about time I made my rounds.

Want me to go with you?

No, Mike, why don't you stay here and entertain me?

Now, Jack, why don't you give Paula a hand in the dishes?

Oh, yeah, I have to test out a new detergent.

You're awfully fond of those people, aren't you?

Uh -huh.

I'd hate to leave them.

Yet you left your family and the friends in your village.

To go to the university.

Yes, to advance yourself.

Well, now you have a chance to advance yourself even further.

What more can you do here?

Mike, if you came to America with me, you could go to graduate school.

Get your doctor's degree. Like Marsh Tracy.

Judy, this is none of your business.

Mike, all I'm asking you to do is think it over.

Yes, I will think it over.

Take it easy, Tasha.

It's all right.

It's all right.

Hold him steady, Jack.

I'm trying to, Mike. He's got 600 pounds on me.

Good morning.

Hi, how are you?

You get up awfully early in the morning.

We don't, me. The animals do.

You make a very effective alarm clock.

Can you use a pair of highly unscaled hands?

I could use about two dozen.

Lee, would you please hand me those bandage scissors?

I mean... You mean the shears, right?

Well, yes. Thank you.

Or should I say elephant shears.

Hold still now, Tosh.

Almost finished.

Hey, you're pretty good at this.

I used to be a nurse's aide.

Girl of many talents.

I'm so glad you know.

I'll get the sharp ready, Jack.

Okay, I'll hold on here.

Lee.

Yes?

I've been thinking about your offer.

I've decided to go.

I know it wasn't an easy decision for you.

No, it was not an easy decision.

I'll go cable Mrs. Cameron right away.

Thank you, Mike.

Could you? That bleeds makeup. You know better than that.

You scoot. Go ahead.

Oh, no. Toto.

Oh.

Shame on you.

Oh, Toto, listen to this.

My dearest Bill.

I believe I can swing the deal with Dr.

Tracy, but only because of a native -born African, a Mike Okula.

He's just the man to run the compound for us.

I've had to use my feminine wilds to get him to leave Africa with me.

Once he gets to the state, he may be disappointed in love, but I'm sure he'll

recover.

We'll invite him to our wedding.

Oh, I've got to find Dad.

Now behave yourself to it.

Jack, Mike, where's Dad?

He's down with the rhinos. Why?

I wonder what she's so excited about.

You know, if we wanted to make a real contribution to science, as girls we

should be trying to understand, not animals.

Dad!

Dad! Dad, come quick!

What's the matter? Dad, I just found out Mike's being taken in.

What do you mean?

Dad, I have proof.

Please help me. It's terribly important to Mike.

Well, okay, honey. Sure thing.

Let's go.

What are you doing? Dad, read this. Paula Lee is our guest.

And Mike is our friend, and he's in terrible trouble.

Dad, if Mike was bleeding to death, you wouldn't hesitate to use any means to

save his life.

His future's in jeopardy.

Please.

Dear Mom, just met a really great guy, a native African named Mike McCooling.

Let me see this.

He's a trained scientist and a perfect gentleman.

He promised to help me with the foundation.

Paula, what sort of nonsense is this?

Why, you're as bad as Judy with your suspicions.

Dad. I don't want to hear another word about it.

Well, that about does it.

Mike, old buddy, don't forget what I told you about that New York traffic.

You said it was like a buffalo stampede. Maybe worse.

Jack, maybe someday you'll come and visit us at our compound.

I hope so. Will you have a chance to say goodbye to Hedley?

He's going to meet us at the airport. Good.

You know, it all seems so sudden somehow.

Mike, I told you Mrs. Cameron was a dynamo.

When she spoke to the foundation chairman, he said, get that Mike McCool

here right away so he can meet with our architects.

Well, goodbye, Jack.

Thanks for everything.

Good luck, Lee.

I hope my country's as good to you as yours has been to me.

Hey.

Take this with you, huh?

What for?

I won't be tranquilizing any animals at the Central Park Zoo.

As we animal lovers know, there may come a time when one of your charges is not

so lovable.

May need a little nap.

Thanks, Jack.

Mike.

Wherever you go, I want you to take a little bit of Africa with you here.

Well, thank you, Paula.

You sure the veranda won't look too empty without it?

Of course it will.

But when you get to America, I want you to hang it up in your rooms. Whenever

you're lonely, look at it and remember Homero.

Mike, look,

I'd like to have you take this.

I know you'll use it wisely.

But, Doctor, I can't.

That's your kit.

I want you to have it. My old man will do until I get new supplies.

I'll use it wisely.

Yeah, we're going to miss you, my friend.

Go ahead, Rafiki.

Go ahead.

Go ahead, Doctor.

Check the clinic, feed the animals.

Well, if you get a chance, go over those reports, will you? Oh, those reports.

I'm beginning to realize how much work Mike did around here. Well, he's gone.

And if you get lonely, there's always Clarence and Judy.

Come on, come on, scoot over, huh?

Notes, notes, notes, notes, notes.

Now, Judy, if there's one thing I don't need, it's more people.

Okay, let's see the message from Garcia.

Hey, this is that letter Paula told me about. The disappearing one from Lita,

her boyfriend.

The letter to her wedding.

I guess

it's none of my business.

Okay,

Judy, you're right.

We'll go to Nagoro. and show this to Mike before he gets on the plane. Come

Mike, you're not working for Romero anymore.

You don't have to keep checking up on the animals.

Force of habit, Lee.

Isn't it natural for a zoologist to think of animals?

I suppose so.

But I'm getting jealous of those beautiful creatures out there.

I can hardly wait till we get to America.

Then you can start thinking of people first.

Ah, but I do think of people, Lee.

Or rather, one special person.

Mike, you're going to love it in America.

And everybody there is going to love you.

What's the matter?

Me? Grab the medical kit. Follow me, but be careful.

This area is full of old poachers fans.

You must have the eyes of a hawk.

Did you hurt badly?

No. No, you'll be all right.

Easy. Lee, would you give me the wire cutters out of the kit, please?

That's it. Take it easy now.

Take it easy.

Easy.

Easy. You would never have gotten out of this by yourself, would you?

That's it. Easy now. Take it easy.

That's it, baby.

Now I want...

Don't panic.

She only wants a cup.

Move back slowly.

Very, very slowly. Slowly.

Mike, are you all right?

Oh, Mike.

Mike, please wake up. What do I do?

Mike. Mike, please, you've got to wake up and help me.

Mike, how do you shoot this thing?

Yeah, Judy, I see it.

Wonder why they stopped.

Yeah, they went this way, all right.

Mike in front, Lee behind.

They were in big hurry, too.

devil did you do a stupid thing like that for?

Oh, no, Jack. I didn't know it was you.

What can I do?

Crazy, hysterical female.

What happened to Mike?

Hey, you got to get that antidote.

Starting.

Gently, Jack. I may have killed him.

Jack, please wake up. I didn't know it was you.

Lee, don't worry.

I gave him an antidote. It'll bring him around in a few minutes.

Mike, I didn't know what I was doing. All I could think of was that lion

back.

Honest, Mike, I didn't mean to shoot him. I never shot a gun off before in my

life. It just went off, I swear, by accident.

Mike, is he going to live?

Lee, don't worry.

The dart only contained a tranquilizing solution. Jack will live.

Thanks. Goodness.

Oh, I'll be so glad to get out of here.

I hate this Africa.

Hurry, Mike.

That lion may come back.

Don't worry, Lee.

You'll make your plane.

Stay with Jack. I've got to help Judy.

All right, Judy.

It's all right. It's all right.

Face off while I'm lying.

You just relax. We'll have you free in no time at all.

Jack, are you all right?

Yeah. Oh, I'm so sorry. I guess I just went to pieces.

It wasn't your fault, Reed.

I never should have rushed in on you like that.

You came here to show this to Mike, didn't you?

Yeah?

I didn't want to see a good phone hurt.

You thought I was using you.

Weren't you?

At first, I suppose I was.

But things changed.

I could never hurt Mike now.

Honest.

Oh, Sleeping Beauty, you all right?

Sleeping Beauty's fine.

Hello, baby.

What were you doing out here anyway, crashing through the bush like some

buffalo? Mike, I think Jack has something to tell you.

Yeah,

Mike, I got something to tell you.

Never let this woman get her hands on a tranquilizer rifle again.

Other than that, the only reason we came out is...

Judy wanted to say goodbye again.

Lee.

I've got to tell you something.

Lee, what I wanted to tell you was I can't go to America with you.

But why?

Africa's my home.

I belong here.

But your ambition to go to America... That was your ambition, Lee, not mine.

Africa gave me my education.

Altari gave me an opportunity to use it.

I owe too much to my country and my colleagues to turn my back on them now.

I hope you understand.

I understand.

I'd better go. I don't want to miss my plane.

Quite a man, Mike.

Goodbye, Jack.

Again, thanks for everything.

Again, good luck.

And you, Judy, take good care of Micah.

Bye, Mike Bakula.

Sure hope I did the right thing.

Mike, I don't think you've ever done anything righter.

Besides which, you had left me with all the work to do.

Which means it would never get done.

Which means it would get done right.

You mean for once you'd realize who does the most work around here?

Oh, you mean for once you realize that I do the most work around here? I mean,

it's about time. I mean, it's about time that I drive you back to Romero. Yes.

Yes. Well, don't you stand there, lover boy. Help me load your bags.

Glad to.

they're gone less than two hours, you get mauled by a lion, Judy gets caught

a snare, and you get yourself sedated.

Hello there. I'm so glad to find you all in.

Oh, what's that for?

It's a tennis booster.

Oh, should I have one?

No. Go on.

Mike, I've just come from the airport of Magora.

Miss Baker explained that you wouldn't be coming.

And I've prepared a most moving speech and a farewell gift for you, which, of

course, I shan't deliver now.

However, I do have a note for you from Miss Baker.

Well, thank you.

Well, this is good news.

Is she coming back?

Maybe, someday.

But she wanted to express her affection for the people of Wameru.

So she cabled Mrs. Cameron and suggested that instead of building an African

project in America, they support an American project in Africa, namely the

Romero Study Center.

Well, did Mrs. Cameron approve?

Well, Lee won't know until she gets to New York. But if we send reports of our

work, she will try to swing annual contributions for our new projects.

Reports.

I'll flip you for them.

Thanks.

Well, I must say, I think that's a...

Splendid gesture on her part.

And speaking of gestures, the lovely Miss Baker sent this package along for

Judith.

You know, I think you three had better flip a coin to see who's going to give

Judy a bath.
