[CUB GROWLS]

[GIBBERING]

[GROWLS]

We should never have told Clarence
that Lady Penbrook is coming.

He's getting nervous.

You know what they say.

Absence makes
the lion's heart grow fonder.

Or something like that.

I'll get Judy.

[PENBROOK GROWLS]

Easy there. Easy, girl.
Nothing to worry about.

Easy, girl. Easy.

We'll be there in no time.

Murphy, what the devil's the idea?

No more driving that beast
through my property.

Turn your lorry around
and get out.

I'm in no mood
for your bad humor, Murphy.

I'm going to Wameru Center,
and I'm in a hurry.

Then take the game road.

The game road's 12 miles longer.

Penbrook's not going to do you
any harm...

...riding through in a truck.

Look, Ealing.
Every year, you get more animals...

...on your darn game reserve.

Pretty soon they'll be overriding
the entire country.

A cat pulled down two cows
last week...

...and I'm gonna put a stop to it
right here and right now.

Lady Penbrook's been a harmless pet
for 12 years and you know it.

Turn around
and take your harmless pet out of here...

...before I put
a bullet through her head.

Don't you wave that rifle at her.

You get in your truck and move it...

...and stop being
a pigheaded Irishman.

Move your lorry
back the way you came.

[GROWLING]

EALING: Penbrook! Let go of him!
- Aah! Get off!

Penbrook! Penbrook!

MURPHY:
Ealing! Get her off!

Ealing! Get her off!

[MURPHY GROANING]

A harmless pet, heh.

[MURPHY GROANING]

Oh, that beast will pay for this, Ealing.

Mark my words, she'll pay.

[GIBBERING]

[JUDY GIBBERING]

I feel like a Judas.

Well, a little sting from the needle now
is far less pain from the tetanus later on.

Well, how do I explain that to Judy?

Judy, it's really for your own good.

- Marsh.
- Yeah.

- There's trouble.
- What's wrong?

Roger Ealing called.

He's over by Sean Murphy's farm.

It seems that Lady Penbrook
just mauled Murphy, then ran off.

- Penbrook?
- That's what he said.

That's impossible.
She's as tame as a kitten.

Roger says Murphy's leg
is torn up pretty badly.

He wants you to get over
there straightaway.

All right.
Luke, will you finish up here?

Paula, Jack.

[ENGINE STARTS]

[ELEPHANT TRUMPETING]

[CAR APPROACHING]

[ENGINE STOPS]

It's good of you to come so quickly.

Well, let's see here.

[MARSH GRUNTS]

Roger, I don't understand this.
What happened to Penbrook?

I don't know. She ran off.

- What provoked her?
MURPHY: She didn't need to be provoked.

She's a wild animal.
Comes natural to her.

You can hardly
call Penbrook wild, Murphy.

She's been like a lapdog
to Roger ever since I've known him.

Murphy and I got into an argument.

We had a bit of trouble about his rifle.

It must have frightened Penbrook.

Now, don't try to put the blame
on me, Ealing.

You and him,
you're the same brand of fool.

You don't want to face the facts that
a beast is a beast and a man is a man...

...and they're not meant to be pals.

[YELPS]

MARSH:
I think your leg's gonna be all right.

Doesn't seem to be any serious damage
to muscles or tendons...

...but you'll have to watch out
for infection.

- I'll have Jack drive you to the hospital.
- That's almost half a day away.

You're an MD, you can do it.

I could.
But the hospital is better equipped...

...to take care of you
in case of emergency.

- Come on. Jack, give us a hand.
- Right.

[MURPHY GRUNTING]

Easy on the leg.

Just as I said...

...the same brand of fool.

[GROWLING]

When I'm through at the hospital...

...I'm going directly
to the district office...

...and I'm going to tell Hedley
exactly what happened here today.

And then I'm going to get a permit...

...and I'm gonna kill your...

...Madam Penbrook
or whatever you call her.

And that's a promise.

And I always keep a promise.

[ENGINE STARTS]

Dad, could he really do that?

I mean, get a permit to kill Penbrook?

Perhaps. If he shows Hedley that leg...

...he'll give him a permit.

Roger, I still don't understand it.

Oh, I guess it had been coming on
for some time...

...but I didn't realize
how serious it was.

- What do you mean?
- Penbrook had been restless lately.

Just plain mean.

That's why I was on my way
to your place when this happened.

I thought perhaps
if you examined her, you'd....

Now I guess there's no point.

Well, I wouldn't say that, Roger.

If we could find her
and I could examine her...

...there just might be an explanation.

There's no point in fooling ourselves,
Marsh.

Penbrook's just not been her old self.
She's gone wild.

Now she'll have to be....

And to complicate matters,
an old aunt of mine died the other day.

I have to leave for London tonight
to settle the estate.

Marsh, I know
it's a bit of an imposition...

...but if you could find Penbrook...

...before Murphy gets at her....

If you could put her away...

...without pain.

That's, uh....
That's not an imposition, Roger.

She's a friend of mine too.

I couldn't do it myself, Marsh.
I just couldn't.

[ENGINE STARTS]

MARSH:
So long, Roger.

I'll take care of it.

You'll put her to rest
in a nice quiet place?

I'll come and visit her when I get back.

We'd better get back to Wameru...

...pick up a couple of days' supplies before
we start looking for Lady Penbrook.

You're worried, aren't you?

Penbrook could kill someone,
couldn't she?

She could turn into a man-eater.

We'd better get moving.

[GROWLING]

[MEN SINGING IN SWAHILI
IN DISTANCE]

[GROWLING]

[ROARS]

[WOMAN SCREAMING]

[GIBBERING]

Daktari, Daktari?

[BOTH SPEAKING IN SWAHILI]

[HORN HONKING]

[HORN CONTINUES HONKING]

PAULA:
Dad, what is it?

[LUKE SPEAKS IN SWAHILI]

He's from the village
three miles from here.

While they were having a celebration,
a lioness hit the place.

PAULA: Penbrook?
- I think so.

- Was anyone--?
- No, no.

Scared a woman half out of her wits...

...killed a calf,
and then headed for the river.

- I think we'd better get over there.
- Yeah, hop in.

[ENGINE STOPS]

LUKE:
This is her favorite watering spot.

She may be around here somewhere.

I don't see any tracks.

Now, if she's taking after livestock,
it means she's tired and weak.

My hunch is she's holed up
somewhere by herself...

...to protect her food.

- Maybe we should look upriver.
MARSH: It's worth a try. Come on.

[ENGINE STARTS]

[GIBBERING]

[CONTINUES GIBBERING]

That's her, all right.

- Morphine?
LUKE: A lethal dose, but painless.

Yeah.

[GROWLS]

[GIBBERING]

[GROWLS]

Luke, give me a tranquilizer.

- A what?
- A tranquilizer? Hurry.

Dad, be careful.

[GROWLS]

[ROARING]

Dad.

I couldn't kill her.

We'll take her home and examine her.

I want to know why she turned killer.

Here.

Yep, here. Feel right there.

- It's a growth of some sort.
- Maybe a cyst or a tumor.

If it is, could that be what's causing
the change in her disposition?

Could be.

I don't know. She's old.

One may have absolutely nothing
to do with the other.

True, but it's worth a try.

Let's get her ready for surgery.

Go on.

Easy up.

Just flip her over.

Thattagirl. Come on, Lady Penbrook.

Nice and quiet.

Good.

Watch it.

All right. Paula, get a hypo.

You watch the anesthesia.
Let's get scrubbed up.

[PENBROOK GRUNTS]

- Sedation's beginning to wear off.
- Give her another hypo.

I hope you've got a strong heart,
old girl.

- Dad?
- No.

Marsh, breathing is beginning to fade.

Give her another 3 cc's of epinephrine.

She's been under a long time.
Maybe too long.

Come on, Penbrook.
You can't give up now.

It's fibrous, deeper than I thought.

It won't be long now.

Don't worry, Judy. She'll be all right.

Dad knows what he's doing.

Well, let's get her into the recovery cage
while she's still sedated.

She's gonna be a pretty sore lioness
when she wakes up.

If she ever wakes up.

Yes, very good. I understand.

Righto.

Yeah, I'll talk to you about it
next time I'm around.

Signing off.

What on earth...?

Murphy, what is this?

This is a sore leg, is what it is.

What happened?
You fall off a tractor or something?

No.

Sixty-five stitches to pull the teeth
and claw marks together.

Teeth and claw?

Are you telling me
you were mauled by a cat?

Yes, that's exactly
what I'm telling you.

- And one of your men is responsible.
- My men?

What on earth are you talking about?

I'm talking about Roger Ealing
and that harmless pet of his.

- Penbrook?
- Aye, that's the one.

Now, let me get this straight.

Are you telling me that weary old cat...

...Roger's been leading around
since who knows when...

...actually attacked you?

There's the evidence. There it is.

This is incredible.

What were you doing to the animal?
Where was Roger?

He was standing there watching. He tried
to drive that cat through my property.

I told him he couldn't.

And while we were there arguing
the point, the cat jumped me.

Well, this is certainly....

I'm gonna call Roger, look in to this.

No, there's no need calling him.

Cat ran off into the bush.

All I need from you is a permit
to hunt her down.

Kill her? Kill old Lady Penbrook?

Yes.

Before she kills somebody else.

This just doesn't make sense.

Well, if it was your leg,
it would make sense in a big hurry.

Now, that cat headed
onto game-reserve property...

...and I want a permit
to track her down.

Murphy, I can understand
your feelings...

...but there must be an explanation.

That cat's been
Roger's companion for years.

Well, she's gone sour now.
She's a man-eater.

You've got no choice, Hedley.

You've got to give me that permit,
because if you don't...

...and that cat hurts someone,
it'll be your neck.

[SIGHS]

Well, I still don't understand it...

...but under the circumstances,
there's nothing else I can do.

Now, Murphy...

...you realize this permit
doesn't allow you to use it...

...on Wameru Study Center property.

I didn't intend to.

Well, just in case the cat
should head in that direction...

...remember, Dr. Tracy won't stand
for the use of firearms on his land.

And neither will I, for that matter.

If you did as much worrying
about people under your jurisdiction...

...as you do about animals...

...this might be a better place to live.

MARSH:
Come on, girl.

Try to get up, huh?

Well, let's hope this works.

Come on, girl. You've gotta eat.

We've gotta make her eat.
It's been two days.

Maybe the tumor had
nothing to do with it.

Maybe she was just dying
because she was tired.

If we could just get her on her feet.

Just make her want to live.

[MARSH SIGHS]

- Marsh?
- Yeah.

Hedley just called. He's pretty upset.

He had to give Murphy that permit
after what happened.

Should we get a guard?

No, no, that won't be necessary.

Murphy wouldn't dare
come around here.

[ENGINE STOPS]

[LION GROWLING]

[GIBBERING]

[CONTINUES GIBBERING]

[GROWLS]

[GROWLING]

[JUDY SHRIEKS]

[GUNSHOT]

[GROWLS]

[CLARENCE GROWLING]

[ENGINE STARTS]

Jack, Luke. Let's have a look around.

- Forget it, forget it.
- Ten dollars says it's Murphy.

It probably is, but it gives us
no reason to kill him.

I wanted to scare him.

From the way he's moving,
he's already been scared.

Clarence, come over here.
Come over here.

Did you have anything to do with that,
by any chance? Huh?

Penbrook.

Dad! Jack!

- Penbrook. Look.
JACK: She's up.

And moving.

PAULA:
The shot must have frightened her.

The important thing
is she's on her feet.

And maybe she's just mad enough
to wanna keep on living.

Just the same...

...I'd study her a while
before I walk in the cage with her.

PAULA: Come on, Penbrook, honey.
Come on. Come on, Penbrook.

Penbrook, come on.

MARSH: How's she coming?
PAULA: I've been trying to cheer her up.

Doesn't look like
you've had very much success.

All right, easy, girl. Easy.

Easy. Easy.

[GROWLS]

MARSH:
Easy. Nobody's going to hurt you.

Easy, girl. Easy.

[GROWLING]

LUKE:
We'd better wait a while, Daktari.

JACK: Somebody taking a shot at her
certainly didn't help her disposition.

Uh-uh, I don't think
you're getting through to her.

It's been a week.
She should be settling down.

Well, she's probably just suffering
from postoperative shock.

We'll have to give her more time.

[PAULA SIGHS]

[TALKS]

[GROWLING]

[GROWLING]

[CLARENCE GRUNTING]

PAULA:
Clarence, what's the matter?

Clarence, do you wanna
tell me anything?

What's wrong, Clarence? What is it?

What are you trying to show me?

Okay, Clarence, okay. I'll go.

Yes, you're coming along just fine,
just fine.

Heh. Okay.

All right, Jack.
Let's check the lion cub, huh?

Dad! Dad!

Yes, what is it, Paula?

Come quickly. Someone's opened
Penbrook's cage. She's gone!

LUKE:
Where is she?

Someone obviously
has let Penbrook out.

Who?

There was a native
that passed by here.

Oh, and I'll bet I know
who put him up to it.

PAULA:
Murphy.

Come on, we've gotta find her.

Come on, Clarence.
Pick it up. Find her.

[SNARLING]

Stay here.

That's close enough, Tracy.

Now, stand back.

[CLARENCE GROWLS]

Murphy, wait. Listen to me.

I've listened to you long enough.

I got the permit from Hedley,
you know that.

And that cat's
on game-reserve property.

That cat's been treated.
She's all right now.

- Get out of my way!
- Just a minute. I'll prove it to you.

I'll walk right over to her.

Dad, be careful.

Marsh, she hasn't let you near her yet.
You can't be sure.

MARSH: All right, Penbrook.
Let's go home now, huh?

Come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

Hey, Lady Penbrook, old girl.

There's a good girl.

Well, Murphy,
does she look like a wild beast now?

She tore off half my leg.

Murphy, when she mauled you,
she was in pain.

A tumor on her side.

But it's been removed.

Step aside.

Fine, Murphy. I'll step aside.

But remember one thing.

Ask yourself...

...are you willing to be branded
more of a wild beast than she is?

Your leg is mending, Murphy,
and so is her side.

She has no reason to strike out.

And neither have you.

Yes, he's gone, old girl. He's gone.

[ENGINE STOPS]

PAULA:
Here's Roger.

MARSH: Roger.
EALING: Hello, Marsh.

- Good to see you.
EALING: Oh, Paula.

I brought you a bit of nonsense
from London.

- Oh, thank you.
- Ha, ha. Jack.

- Welcome back.
EALING: Hello, Luke.

- It's good to have you back, Roger.
- Thank you.

Would you like to have a drink?

Uh, no, thanks, not just now.

I wondered if you'd show me
where you put the old lady.

Come on, I'll show you.

Over this way.

Penbrook.

- She's alive.
- And well.

But how? When I left--

Roger, she had a tumor
on her left shoulder.

We removed it and....
Well, as you can see, she's just fine.

Oh, Penbrook.

I can't believe it.

Come here. Come here.

Penbrook. Ha, ha. Good old girl.

Oh, you like that, do you? Ha, ha.

Good old girl.

Penbrook, my darling.

Come on, old girl. Come on. Ha, ha.

Good old girl.
