as you know there's a drought on.

How in the devil is this dry spell going to end?

Oh, as soon as it either rains or snows.

Now, Julie, you heard Dad. Now until the drought ends, all the water's on half

rations, and that includes animals as well as people.

What?

This is about all we can spare for Chief and Ghana's village.

And the purification tablets are in.

Oh, well, fine.

Yes, honey, I promised the chief that you'd bring along these tablets.

When you've brought the water out, it should help him.

Okay. But I guess we'd better get started. I understand every well in this

village has gone dry.

Isn't that one of our lions?

No, that's a wild one out in the bush somewhere. I saw tracks yesterday.

Well, then do you think he's after one of our animals?

More likely, he's after our water.

He's probably hungry as well as thirsty.

But with this drought and cold spell, all the game animals have moved off.

Wouldn't the lionfights follow the herds? Well, yes, except those that are

weak and too old to follow. So they go looking for easy prey, like the one

that's been raiding in Ghana's cattle. He's lost two cows already.

You know, this could be the same one.

Well, Dad, shouldn't we go out there and find him? If the water hole's dry,

he'll probably die.

Now, Paula, we can't go after every stray animal.

Remember, our compound animals come first.

Uh, Marsh, maybe we ought to stick around just in case, huh? No.

It's all right.

We got it. People need that water. Okay, we'll make it as fast as we can.

Want to grab that, Mike?

Mm -hmm.

I'll give my best to Chief Nagano.

Say hello for me, too.

Hey, where's Judy?

Oh, she probably went with the boys.

I hope so.

I don't want her wandering around with a hungry lion on the prowl.

Oh, and by the way, young lady, don't you get any bright ideas about helping

that lion?

He's half crazed with thirst and hunger, and he'll attack the first living thing

he sees.

of that congestion.

It's cold out there. Yeah.

It's cold.

Be a good boy.

How's he doing, Dad?

Well, he's just about over that congestion, but I want to play it safe.

Okay. Still no Judy, huh? Well, I haven't seen her anyplace.

I wonder where that little rascal could have gone to.

Well, you better keep calling her.

Okay.

Rascal, where have you been hiding?

What's the matter?

You know, I think she wants us to come along with her. No, she's just trying to

change us up because she knows I'm going to scold her.

No, I think she really does want us to come along.

Come on, a walk won't do us any harm anyway.

All right.

Judy, don't be so impatient.

What are those pills for, honey?

Oh, vitamins mostly.

The chief's getting old.

You know, between the drought problem and a marauding lion.

Well, with this content spreading in the village, he's liable to wind up an ex

-chief. Yeah.

Well, if that lion we heard was the marauder, I... Sure hope Judy or Paul

convinced Marsh that he needs help, too.

Judy, a walk's a walk, but this is a wild goose chase.

Yeah, it's beginning to look that way.

Oh, come on now, Judy, we've had it.

Head back to the house. No, I'll stay with you. You've got the gun.

Okay, well, stay close.

Okay.

He might have been dangerous.

Dad, do you think he's the cattle killer?

No, I don't think so.

Well, with his bad leg, he couldn't kill much of anything.

Besides, it looks like Judy's been ringing in water.

So that's what you've been up to.

Poor thing, he looks half -starved.

Yeah, we'd better take him back to the clinic. We'll need the truck.

Think you can make it back there alone, all right?

Well, sure, Dad.

Judy, you got us here. Now you've got to get me back to the compound and hurry.

Go on.

Jumbo, Chief. Jumbo.

Jumbo. We brought you some water. Oh, thank you, my friend. We need it

desperately.

Jumbo, Chief. Jumbo. Good to see you.

Andomaji Mataka.

Wenda. Wenda.

Doctor, I sent you this medicine along. It should help you feel strong again.

Thank you. Thank you. I shall need my strength to save this village from the

drought and the lions.

Well, things should be better after the rains, Chief.

Well, excuse us. We've got to get going.

You cannot stay?

But not today, I'm afraid. We've got to get right back to Romero. Good seeing

you.

From what Dr. Hardy said on the radio, it seems we have a lion problem, too.

Oh, yeah, he's still well under.

Let's have a little listen.

Yeah.

Yeah, he's coming along fine.

We don't know anything about this lion, and when he wakes up, he's likely to be

very unhappy.

So listen, young lady, I want you to keep a far, far distance away.

You understand, huh?

Dad, she just wants to help.

No, she can help by being quiet.

You understand quiet?

Yeah, that's right.

I want you to stay away from him.

Now, I'm serious. I'll wake up before we get back. You come and get us.

Okay?

There you go, old boy.

What the doctor ordered.

I like that.

Go on, eat up. It'll make you feel well and strong.

Come on, eat something.

Now, Judy, it was very thoughtful of you to give him this blanket.

Now, I want you to keep a good eye on him, and if anything happens, holler out

good and loud, all right?

Remember one thing. Keep your distance.

He's not asleep this time.

Oh, Judy covered up her lion friend with this. Well, how's he doing?

Well, he's definitely off his feet. I left him some meat, but he hasn't even

sniffed at it.

Oh, where's Mike?

He's out checking the dry water holes.

Maybe some vitamins might give our little lion some pep.

Something just pepped him up.

Judy!

Judy's magic touch.

You think maybe Judy could be part witch doctor?

Well, however she did it, that's the best medicine that old cat ever had.

But how did she do it? She never saw that lion before until she came across

in the bush.

Well, maybe he remembers that she helped him.

It looks like Daniel in the lion's den.

Figure I'm keeping him here.

Oh, at least until the rains come and there's plenty of game again.

He'd have pretty lean hunting right now.

Yeah, unless he went after and got his cattle.

Then we'd have to turn him in, wouldn't we? Jack, you've got no proof that he's

the Marauder Lion.

I'm sure the real cattle killer's out there somewhere in the bush.

Well, if there is another cattle killer out in the bush, you can be sure that he

or she is starving and headed right after those cows.

Okay, Judy, that's enough playing. Come on.

Well, he's really coming along, isn't he? I guess we can let him go soon.

Yes, I just hope he can make it on his own.

Well, when the game comes back, why not?

Because he's obviously been rejected by his pride.

Unless he finds a mate, that poor old boy is a real loner.

Dad, do you think his pride will try and kill him? Well, it looks as if they

already tried.

Of course, he's in better shape now.

Dad, you can't... Oh, now, honey, listen. Remember, we're not running a

here. We're going to have to let him go sooner or later, no matter what.

Well, we'll be getting some rain tonight anyhow, according to Mike.

Dad, if it does rain tonight, I suppose that means you're going to have to

release him tomorrow.

What's the matter with Judy?

She's upset. It's her pal. She doesn't want to see him go.

Now, Judy, don't be so sad.

But Dad's taking your lion pal back out in the bush.

Look it, right here, Judy.

Practically where you found him.

And now that the rains have come, there'll be plenty of game out there. No

lions ever claim that territory, so he'll have it all to himself.

Even if he is the Marauder Lion, he won't be pulling down any more cattle.

I just know he's not Nagaya's cattle killer.

Izzy, Judy.

Oh, no.

Come on, cheer up.

You know, this is quite a country.

Thunderstorm one night, the next day everything looks dry again.

So it seems.

At least there's water where it counts, Marsh, in the water holes.

That's right.

Well, let's get this cat out, shall we?

Okay,

fellas, this is the end of the line.

All set?

I sure hope you make it.

wrong, Judy? Do you miss your pal?

By now, Dad and the boys have set him free in the bush.

He's not going to go hungry, if that's what you mean.

Soon there'll be plenty for him to eat and drink.

I tell you what, why don't you have some lunch with Clarence, okay?

Listen to me. You've been ignoring Clarence. You haven't been playing with

either. So you two have a good lunch together, all right?

I'll feed the other animals.

Go on.

Well, here you go, little fella.

I'll get you up some orange and some bananas and all sorts of goodies.

How are you guys feeling, huh?

Let's see. For you, Ralphie, I'll get you some grapes.

How about that?

Like that?

How are you feeling, by the way?

Well, eat up and you'll feel real good in a day or two.

Here you go.

Right.

Here's another one.

another one.

Judy,

did Clarence eat his meat already?

Would you look at that?

Now you see, you restored his appetite.

Give him some more, okay?

Thank you, Judy.

Here's another bowl of meat, Clarence.

Judy!

Judy!

Judy!

I just want to thank you for taking such good care of Clarence.

Well, what's your fancy, Jeff?

How about an orange?

Would you like an orange?

Hold it down, Joe. I'll feed you in a minute.

Let's see. Oh, and how about some corn?

Oh, that's what you really want, isn't it? Oh, well, let me see.

Just a second. Just a second.

Oh, what a greedy fellow you are.

And you, your little character, how are you feeling today, hmm?

Oh, let's see what we got here for you.

How about some of Doc Tracy's special formula?

Would you like that?

Now, Judy, don't be so sad.

But Dad's taking your lion pal back out in the bush.

Look it, right here, Judy.

Practically where you found him.

I think he is a friend.

Look, I'll show you.

Be careful. That's all right.

Clarence.

Clarence.

Hello,

Ed Lee.

I thought that was you hollering around the place. Oh, Marsh, we thought you

might be here. We looked for you first in the house. No, I was just making my

rounds. Why, what's up?

Thank you, John. I'm Simba Panabaya, Simba Missouri.

Missouri? Yes, Missouri. Good. This is Kibu.

Oh, John, we're Kibu.

Shumble, Doctor.

Oh, Nagana sent him to me. He lost another cow to a lion.

Any description?

Now, the herdsman was too rattled to get a good description of him. But they

know you picked up a stray the other day. Yes, as a matter of fact, we just

him loose yesterday.

Well, Daddy, you don't think it's Judy's friend, do you? Oh, I certainly would

doubt it.

But you did take him back to a new territory, miles from Nagana's village,

didn't you? Yes, yes, yes, of course.

Well, then it couldn't be.

I don't know.

We'd have to travel quite a distance, but...

Habits, instincts, they're kind of hard to break. We've got to find him.

Mind if I come along?

Very well. But you do realize this business has got to be settled to

satisfaction. Yes, yes.

I realize that. Oh, would you hang on a minute? I want to pick up a tape

recorder. Tape recorder?

For what for?

Well, I thought I might use some tape lion calls to attract Nagana's lion. You

know, it might save a lot of tracking time.

Dad, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but the boys have the tape recorder in the

back of the truck.

Oh, great.

Where are they?

Oh, they're out in the bush checking water holes. They won't be back for some

time. Marsh, you don't have to come traipsing along with me. Now, if I were

I'd just stay here and relax.

Oh, no, you don't.

You're not going to get rid of me that easily.

I'm not trying to get rid of you, Marsh. Oh, yes, you are trying to get rid of

me, Hadley.

Well, it's only that I don't think you'll be needing this dart rifle.

Nagana wants that killer found and destroyed. Dad, you can't let him do

Don't worry. Eddie and I will do all we can.

Marsh, now let's get this straight.

This is one time when you're not talking me out of a kill.

Come on, Keeble.

Do you see anything?

No, unfortunately.

We're hoping to see a lioness.

I'm sorry, Marsh, but I can't buy your theory about some other lion or lioness

being the culprit.

Oh, I know, Adley.

But it's not a theory. It's just a law of averages.

Well, keep your eyes peeled anyway, will you? Right?

Don't tell me you're hungry again.

Now, Clara, I fed you less than an hour ago. What's the matter with you?

Don't you know you're going to get sick by eating too much?

I don't want to hear any complaints about the service in this hotel either.

If you were like Judy's friend out on his own, it would be a different story

altogether.

By the way, where is Judy?

Did she go out looking for a friend to play with?

If he's not the marauder lion, he could run into that real cattle killer.

Come on, Clarence, we better go find her.

The tracks aren't clear, but this is where the lion made his kill. And he

it that way.

Well, we'll soon find out if it's your lion.

Yes, it's my lion.

Everything's all right. Don't have to be scared.

Did you go chasing after that lion friend of yours?

Judy, did he try to attack you?

He didn't.

Was there another lion?

Did that lion try to attack you, Judy?

Oh, I knew there was another lion.

Better call Jack and Mike.

You hang on to this.

Jack, Mike, this is Paula. Do you read me?

Hey, Jack, can you get that?

Yeah, I got it. I left it on record.

Hi, Paula, Jack.

We're freezing to death trying to record some gazelles down here by the

waterhole. What's your problem?

Problems, plural.

Judy, she was just attacked by a lion.

You mean by her friend, the one we released?

No, another one.

If you're near the gazelle area, you might look around because he's probably

looking for a prey.

No, I doubt it, Paula.

If there were a lion within sniffing distance, those gazelles wouldn't be

messing with the waterhole. They'd be running for the hills.

Well, I'm just alerting you.

Alert received, ma 'am.

What's your second problem?

It's Clarence. Did you hear him?

Yeah, I heard him. As a matter of fact, we just recorded him. What's his

complaint? Well, he's hungry. The more I feed him, the more he eats.

Well, just keep on feeding him. He's a growing boy.

But it's not normal.

He's begging for food.

I wouldn't worry, Paula.

If he asks for it, he needs it, so just dish up another ration.

If he gets indigestion, you're just going to have to sit up with him.

The cat moved out.

Hours ago, looking for another kill.

Follow the tracks, Keevo.

Sir, you'll be moving in on Nagano's cattle again.

No, he seems to be headed back towards Romero.

Oh, it looks like you're lying after all.

you chow hound. My gosh.

Eat hearty.

Clarence, have you seen Judy anywhere?

I guess I'll see her when she gets good and hungry then.

See you later.

Judy. Judy, what's the big idea?

You've been stealing food from Clarence right along, haven't you?

But why?

Were you taking it to your lion pal?

Judy, is he sick?

Then you better take me to him.

Wait a minute. We could run into that other lion you told me about.

I'll get the rifle. Come along, Judy.

There.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, Keeble.

We don't know for certain that he's a killer.

Do you have any evidence to the contrary? No, but I still say if it has

done, it should be done painlessly. Marsh, it's a tribal custom. You know

They have to do it themselves.

He's got a job to do. Now let him get on with it.

Thanks, Dr. Ty.

I did not see your chump.

No, Paula, either.

Dad!

Paula? Paula, what are you doing here? Are you all right? Dad, I had no idea

were hunting this close to the compound.

Well, the kind of trackers let us this far.

Dad, you weren't hunting him, were you?

I'm sorry, Paula. I know he's Judy's chump, but... But that's just it. Look!

They're such great chums that Judy's been stealing Clarence's food and

it out here for him.

Bringing him food?

Yes. Well, how long has that been going on? Well, I don't know, Dad, but

Clarence is always hungry.

I bet Judy's been playing nursemaid to him ever since we released him.

Well, if that's the case, he has no reason to kill cattle.

That's quite true. If he wouldn't attack a small chimp, he certainly wouldn't

attack your cattle.

That is true, Doctor.

He will.

He will, couldn't he?

Keeble, would you go around the lion over there and see if you can find

set of tracks different from his?

Go, Keeble.

Wanda! Wanda!

I know he's your friend, and I know he's not the cattle killer, but just don't

push your luck, huh?

She is not far now.

She?

Yes, heavy old boy.

Those are the tracks of our clients.

Yes, no doubt about it.

Those tracks make it clear enough now. I wish we'd seen them before.

Well, we all made the same mistake.

I was so convinced it was a male that we picked up his tracks instead of hers.

Well, men, let's get on with it.

Dad, if they find her, will they kill her?

I don't know if I can help it.

Hey, are the fellas back yet? They weren't when I left.

Let me have your walkie -talkie. Sure, here.

Jack, Mike, do you read, over?

Yes, Marsh.

Where are you?

Heading back to Amero.

Well, okay, make it as fast as you can. Paula will meet you there and tell you

what to do, all right?

Okay, Marsh.

Now look, Paula.

Get back to the house and bring me those lion tapes and the recorder. I'll need

them. Sure, but why? I'll explain later. Just hurry. Okay.

Listen, Judy, old girl.

If you want to do your pal a real favor, you just make him stay right where he

is until I get in the gunner. You understand?

Fresh tracks.

We are gaining on her. Good work.

Nagata, wait!

I want you to come with me.

How can I, Doctor? We must catch the lioness. I'll catch her, I promise you

that. How?

Well, I've got an idea.

Nagata, please.

What's going on? I've got to get these tapes to Dad. I'll show you the way.

Good girl, Judy. You're doing just fine.

The only lion I see is that one. I know.

But not so long ago, Nagana, that lion was as weak as you were.

Your medicine made me strong, Dr. Tauri, but if what you told me about Judy

feeding him is true, then he still cannot hunt for himself.

True?

But what if he had a mate to hunt for him?

The lioness? Yes, the lioness.

No, she would have to provide for him.

And if we move them to a new territory far away from your village, you'd have

start hunting wild game and leave your cattle alone.

It is too late, Dr. Harry.

I've already given Keevy orders to kill her.

Well, he and Hedley will have to catch her first.

and ready to go. Good. Thanks, Paula.

What do you want with the male lion mating call?

Yeah, I've got your scheme. You can try to lure him back with this.

That's the idea. I just hope it works.

Let's see. I better get it closer to the lion.

Jack, cover me.

Yeah.

Doctor, I do not think that is very loud. If the lioness is too far away,

cannot hear it. Dad, can't you raise the volume some?

It's at full volume now.

Jack, you better get the amplifier.

The amplifier is broken.

There wasn't time to fix it.

Look, maybe we could go in after her and take the thing. No, no, it's too risky.

She's on the run. She'll come with the first thing she sees.

Let go!

Dad, it's too dangerous.

Maybe for us, but... You know, somehow or another, Judy's been doing awfully

well by herself.

I think we just ought to leave it to her.

Mars, that lion's getting very restless.

How are we going to keep him quiet with Judy gone?

Well, with this. It'll ruin everything if we have to use it.

Well, I doubt that in a tranquilized state he'd be very appealing to any

Yeah.

She's headed for the clearance.

Judy knew what she was doing.

Judy, you did just fine. Now you've got to get him to show some interest.

Judy, you'd better make it fast. We've just run out of time.

Hold

it,

Keevil. Boss, you promised not to interfere.

Now, listen, Hadley.

This hunt is Nagata's idea.

And as you said, it's a tribal problem, and it's up to him.

Exactly. He ordered Keebo to kill a lion. He may not have to.

What on earth is Judy doing?

She's trying to play Cupid.

You see, Headley, old boy, we have two misfits on our hands.

Judy's old lion and that lady maverick. Lady cattle killer, you mean?

No, no, not anymore.

She starts hunting with him and for him.

They'll make it together, I'm sure of it.

Probably so, if they got together.

But by what I can see, they...

By Joke, will you look at that?

Well,

Henley, what do you say now?

I say...

Judy was quite a matchmaker.
