"[JUDY GIBBERING]" "[GROWLING]" "[ROARS]" "[SQUAWKING]" "[GRUNTING]" "Oh, look at them." "Aren't they cute?" "MARSH:" "Yes, indeed." "A very nice, happy, healthy bunch of specimens." "I'd call them a typical lion pride." "Hmm, very typical." "Yeah." "Normal mother love, she makes the kill, father eats then she feeds the children." "Yes, sir, very typical." "Aren't men something, Judy?" "Typical mother, typical behavior." "You two make it sound so ordinary." "Paula, when you learn a little more about lions you'll find that a pride is a very close-knit family group." "Well, I think she deserves a lot more credit than that." " I think we just struck a nerve." " Women." "Men." "Well, all seems secure here." "Let's take a look at that area you were talking about earlier." " Okay." "PAULA:" "Come on, Judy, get in the back." "Yes, this is it." "From what you said, Mike, this may tie in very well with Jack's new motherhood experiments." "Now, see there?" "There's more of that masculine scientific method, Judy." "Wameru conducts an experiment in motherhood, who they put in charge?" "Jack, a male." "Sometimes I don't think I even wanna be a scientist." "Now, what chance does a woman have in a field dominated by men?" "Daktari, look." "There they are now." "Near the meat I left for them this morning." "Yes." " She's going after the meat, all right." " Watch closely." "[PURRING]" "You see?" "She's taken all the meat for herself." "Isn't she gonna feed her cub?" "[WHIMPERS]" "I've been watching this for several weeks." "She never feeds him." "Hmm." "He eats only what she leaves or what he can steal from her." "You ever see a male lion around?" "No, this pride seems to consist only of the mother lioness and her one cub." " Mike, you said she never feeds him." " That's right." "[PURRING]" "[LIONESS ROARS]" "Yeah, you're right, Mike." "This is most unusual for a lioness." "What do you suppose happened to the male of this pride?" "More than likely he was killed by a poacher." "The only thing I can think of is that sometimes a mother will desert the cub if he's the runt of her litter, deformed." "Especially if there's no male around." "Sad." "Well, I'll get some shots of this for Jack." "Dad, are you gonna do anything for the cub?" "No, for the moment, we are not going to do a thing." "You're not gonna do a thing?" "No, I wanna wait and see if Mother Nature won't take care of this by herself." "[LIONESS ROARING]" " You think the little fella has a chance?" " Oh, yeah, he has a chance." "But if we interfere, he certainly won't." "But, Dad, if he goes on this way, he'll starve." "Well, he hasn't starved yet." "Nope, I think we should wait a week or so see if there's change for the worse." "If there is, maybe we can do something." "If we wait, he will starve." "If he doesn't, a leopard or a predator might get to him." "I'm sure she has enough mother instincts to protect him." "Yeah, but can you guarantee it?" "Paula, I can guarantee one thing and that is if we interfere mother will desert him, and that'll be the end of him." "I agree with Marsh, Paula." "No matter what we think, his only chance is with her." "You men and your theories." "That poor cub's out there searching for crumbs." "[PURRING AND WHIMPERING]" "Oh, Judy, what's gonna happen to him?" "Poor thing is just helpless." "Mike, once in a while, doesn't wise old Mother Nature make a goof?" "Daktari doesn't think so." "You're supposed to be at the dispensary." "Today is your vitamin day." "Come on, sport, let's go." " Let's go." " Come on, go." "Come on." " Go on." "MIKE:" "Come on." "Mike, aren't there times that Mother Nature can use an assist?" "Have you seen Jack's newest motherhood experiment?" "You men and your experiments." "You're like two boys playing games." "Heh, maybe so." "Why don't you take a look at what Jack is doing?" "Now, those are what you would probably call nature's rejects, Paula." "JACK:" "Hi, guys." "What do you think of my new family over there?" "I hear you're the world's greatest mother." "Not me." "I think maybe Mabel deserves that title." "Hi, Judy." "You see, Paula." ""Jack's Orphanage, all strays accepted."" "Come on, Clarence." "Quite a sight, isn't it?" "All of them are orphans." " And Mabel adopted them all?" " Yeah, that she did." "Well, how did you do that?" "I just conditioned the babies to find their food and protection by following Mabel." "This little setup is just a small part of my experiment on the social integration of alien species." "Got about five or six separate" " Hey, are you listening to me?" " Oh, of course I am." "I think it's marvelous what you're doing giving those poor, starving orphans a good home." "Thank you." "Got room for more?" "Well, yeah, I guess so." "Why?" "I'm just curious." "Come on, Judy, we've got work to do." "Women's work." "Come on, Judy." "Okay, Judy, hold the bag open." "Come on." "There we go." "Come on, Judy." "Judy, get in the front seat." "Judy, we're not making a mistake, are we?" "[GIBBERING]" "If that lioness won't feed its cub it certainly couldn't mind if we gave it a good home." "[GIBBERING]" "Judy, you don't think Dad's right, do you?" "[GIBBERING]" "Well, Jack, how's it going?" "Well, not half bad." "Take a look." "Well, like Paula says, he's the mother of the world." "That reminds me." "I wonder if Paula's checking on that water buffalo?" "I don't know." "She took off here not too long ago, though." "Well, I'll saunter over and see how she's doing." " I'll see you all later." " Right." "How about this, huh?" "Quite a family." "[CUB CATERWAULING THEN LIONESS ROARS]" "Look at her." "She's some mother." "I don't think she even cares, do you, Judy?" "[GIBBERING]" "We're gonna do something about this." "We're gonna rescue that cub." "Mabel did that." "She taught those goats how to eat fish." "Fantastic." "How's Paula doing with the buffalo?" "Well, I don't know, she wasn't there." "Didn't look like she ever was there, as a matter of fact." "Come to think of it, I wonder where on earth she could be?" "Hey, any of you fellas move that jeep?" "No." "Maybe she took it." "She left with Judy after making some crack about the boarders of my orphanage." "What sort of crack?" "Something about, did I have room for another orphan?" "Uh-oh." "That lion cub, the one we saw this morning?" " One more thing, Marsh." "The dart rifles?" " Yeah?" "I took them out of that jeep to clean them." "Okay, Judy, when I stop, I want you to drop this meat." "We'll circle around, when the lioness goes for the meat we'll grab the cub." "Do you understand?" "Okay." "Now, hang on tight." "Okay, Judy, drop the meat off." "[ROARING]" "Oh, good, she's eating the meat." "Where's the little cub?" "Judy, do you see the cub?" "[GIBBERS]" "Where?" "Oh, good." "Okay, let's go get him." "Hey, stand still, you little devil." "We're your friends." "I think he thinks we're playing games." "Hi." "I'm not gonna hurt you." "[GROWLING]" "Not gonna hurt you." "PAULA:" "Ooh!" "[CUB CATERWAULING]" "Oh, I got you." "Back to the orphanage, yes." "Come on." "[GROWLS]" "Judy, listen to me." "It's me she's after." "I want you to go over to that tree and slowly, carefully climb up there and stay there." "Now, go on, Judy." "Go on." "[ROARING]" "[GROWLING]" "Well, I think you better go back to your mother." "She thinks I wanna hurt you." "Go on." "Go." "Now, just be calm, mother." "I don't wanna hurt your son." "Take it easy." "Take it easy." "[LIONESS GROWLING]" "[ROARING]" "PAULA:" "Oh, Dad, I'm so frightened." "It's so" "MARSH:" "It's all right." "It's all right." " Everything's all right now." " Look, Judy's scared too." "[SCREAMING]" "MARSH:" "You feeling better, huh?" "Any damage done?" "Oh, am I scared." "Boy, am I glad you happened along." " Young lady, I didn't just happen along." " You didn't?" "No, and I think there's something we'd better discuss." "Oh, Dad, couldn't we postpone this consultation until later?" " It isn't that important." " Important?" "You bet your sweet life it's important." "And that's exactly what you did." "You bet your life, yours and Judy, on a foolish childish, school-girl stunt." "Didn't check if there were any dart rifles." "PAULA:" "But, Dad" "MARSH:" "Don't "But, Dad" me." "You just listen." "And another thing." "I hope you realize, young lady, that you were behaving emotionally not at all like the scientist that you claim you wanna be." "But, Dad, maybe I feel things a lot more deeply than you, Jack or Mike do." "I can't help the way I feel." "Paula, there's no room in the world of wild animals for the sort of sentimentality that endangers lives." "Now, I hope I've made myself clear." "Yes, you have." "MARSH:" "Okay." "Oh, boy." "He's really giving Paula the business, isn't he?" "He sure is." "But you know, Jack, she really has it coming." "Yeah, I suppose so." "Well, there you are, old girl." "You'll be your old self in just a couple of minutes." "And another thing." "Didn't I tell you not to interfere?" " Yes, you did." " Well?" "I mean, you were right." "I want you to promise me that you will not interfere with this lioness and her cub again." "I promise." "Have you seen the cub?" "No, he's probably hiding back there in the bush someplace." "See if we can find him." "I'd like to examine him." "Don't you think we ought to get out of here?" "She's about to come to." "You go ahead, I'll drive Paula back." " All right." " Mm-hm." "She'll be as good as ever in a few minutes." "Or as bad as ever." "Dad, I still don't understand it." "If that lioness were dead, you would have taken the cub." "Paula, that lioness is not dead and you can't go adopting every unhappy lion cub in Africa." "Now, be realistic." "Let nature work it out, hmm?" "What a cruel way to run a family." "[CUB PURRING]" "You two are supposed to be my friends." "You know I have a problem." "Yeah, well, our little friend here has a problem too." "He can't get along with animals." "Only people." "You know, he's an orphan but he won't even join Mabel's happy family." "JACK:" "There you go." "Come on, you know it's that little cub that needs help and our help." "Jack, you saw the films that Mike took on that lion cub and that mother." "Yeah, I know." "Paula, your father told you not to interfere with them." " Where is Dad?" " He's over at the Katanga village." "Marsh was right, Paula." "He's just worried about your safety." "I ask for help and you give me nothing but a lecture on safety." "Okay, we'll give you a little help." "I think what your little lion family needs is a man around the house." "Hmm?" "That's it." "A romantic interest for the sour lioness." "It could sweeten her up." "JACK:" "Kind of a boy-meets-girl-type thing." "Oh, you two have got to be kidding." "JACK:" "No, we're not kidding." "All we have to do is to find an eligible, presentable, bachelor-type lion." "[GIBBERS]" "Nature will take care of the rest." "We just merely go out and find a handsome, virile, unattached boy lion?" "That's about it." "[JUDY GIBBERING]" "[CLARENCE GROWLING]" "[JUDY GIBBERS]" "Oh, Judy, you've gotta be kidding." "MIKE:" "We love Clarence too, Judy, but, uh, Clarence is not really a lion." "He's just, ha, ha...." "Just good old Clarence." "Clarence may be our friend, Judy, but let's face it, romantic he is not." "[GIBBERING]" "[JACK LAUGHING]" "Jack, what about my cub?" "Oh, boy." "What about your cub?" "Okay, I'll make you a deal." "We will discuss your cub on condition that we do it over some hot coffee." " That's a deal." " That's a deal." "MIKE:" "He's just good old Clarence." "JACK:" "Romantic he is not." "[JACK LAUGHING]" "[ROARING]" "[JUDY SCREAMING]" "[BARKING]" "[GROWLING]" "Mike, there's not a single comprehensive study on animal social integration." "Nobody has taken the time to do it." "It has to be done on a large scale." "Of course, but that takes a very large staff and a lot of money." "Neither of which we have." "Start someplace at the beginning" "Hey, where's Judy and Clarence?" " Gee, I don't know." " Well, if you two didn't talk so much." " Paula, what is it with you?" " Those two, Judy and Clarence." "Dad made it clear, he didn't want them to get into mischief." " Don't worry about it." "They couldn't" " Oh, my gosh." "Look." "My purse has been vandalized." "Anything missing?" "My mirror and brush and perfume." "Hey, look here." "Well, what's going on around here?" "This look familiar, Paula?" "That's my missing cologne." "It was your cologne." "It's all gone now." "I wonder who took my things." "I wonder who's been using them." "This is lion hair." "Somebody was trying to make Clarence neat and presentable." "And someone was also making Clarence smell sweet and irresistible." "We have a brand new Clarence." "Handsome, attractive, confident romantic?" " Boy meets girl." " With a little help." "From Judy the matchmaker." "Don't like to be the wet blanket, but, um...." "What do you mean?" "We should be there when Judy introduces Clarence to our unfriendly mother lioness." "You're right." "That lioness could be a little anti-social." " She wouldn't do anything, would she?" " She could." "If she thought they were enemies, they could have quite a problem." " But Clarence is a male." "She wouldn't." " She would." "And Clarence is so friendly he would not fight back." "Right." "Come on." "[CLARENCE ROARING]" "[GROWLING]" "[GROWLING]" "[SCREAMING]" "[GROWLS]" "[GIBBERING]" "[ROARS]" "[SCREAMING]" "We forgot the dart rifle." " We'll have to try and scare her away." "MIKE:" "Stay here." "[MIKE  JACK YELLING]" "[ROARING]" "MIKE:" "Come here, Judy." "Come here." "JACK:" "Come on, Clarence." "MIKE:" "Come on, come on." "There, Judy, everything's fine." "Now, go ahead and tremble, I know exactly how you feel." "Come on, easy, girl." "Everything's all right." "I didn't know being a bachelor was that dangerous." "Yes, siree, boy." "Who was it that said "Romance could be fun"?" "How's Judy?" "Oh, she's all right." "Just a little frightened." "Say, fellas, we don't really need to mention this episode to Dad, do we?" "[GIBBERING]" "Okay, I'll buy it." "What do you say, Mike?" "Okay." "Oh, wait a second." "Let's see what she's gonna do now." "[CUB PURRING]" "Oh, why is she so mean?" "Mother Nature strikes out." "Afraid so, Paula." "But at least Jack's batting a thousand." "Well, not a thousand, Mike, but it's encouraging." "Cheer up." "When we get back to the compound I'm gonna show you something that'll make you forget about Junior." "[GIBBERING]" "[LIONESS ROARING]" "[CUB PURRING]" "I'll believe it when I see it." " Oh, you'll see it." "Come on." " Come on, Judy." "[CUB PURRING]" "[LIONESS ROARS AND CUB PURRS]" "[CUB PURRING]" "Yup." "That's what I call a successful experiment." "She's what I call a real mother." "PAULA:" "Real mother?" "JACK:" "Yeah, I think so." "She's adopted those two wolves as her own." "Matter of fact, I think she thinks they're lions." " But, Jack, those are natural enemies." " Shh." "Now, we know it, but they don't." "So keep your lips sealed." "PAULA:" "You know, they're as content as that lion pride we saw the other day." "A family." "Yup, that they are." "They've accepted her completely as their mother." "Vice versa too." "It's amazing." "They were orphans once and now they're so happy." "Hi, Judy." "Jack, it just doesn't seem fair." "Hey, Jack." " Give me a hand, will you?" " Marsh is back." "Yeah, I'll be right there, Marsh." "Stick around, I want you to see the rest of this experiment." "You know, every time I look at a well-fed animal I can't think of that little cub and its horrid mother." "Dad and the others, they can turn off their feelings like faucets but we can't do that, can we, Judy?" "[JUDY GIBBERING]" "We just have to do something to save that cub." "You know, Jack said that that lioness adopted these wolves." "I wonder if we got that little cub and put it in with Jack's orphans?" "[GIBBERING]" "Oh, no, we can't do that." "Dad made that quite clear." "What about that first pride of lions we saw the other day?" "The happy ones." "I bet they would adopt the cub." "Now, all we have to do is get that cub and put it in with the pride." "[CONTINUES GIBBERING]" "No, Dad wouldn't go for that either." "If we don't do something, he'll starve." "We can't let that happen, can we, Judy?" "Judy, we're gonna need some meat and tranquilizers." "Go to the meat house and get two big pieces of meat." "I'll get the tranquilizers." "And I'll meet you back at the jeep, okay?" "Let's go." " Well, how's Paula doing?" "JACK:" "Oh, she's settling down." " Well, I hope my lecture did some good." "JACK:" "Yup." "Hey, where did you get this feller?" "MARSH:" "Oh, they gave him to me at the village." "His name is Leonard." "Hi, Lennie." "He weighs a ton." "Take it easy." "Oh, good, Judy." "Did anyone see you?" "[GIBBERING]" "No one saw me either." "We're gonna fix that little cub's so-called mother." "Got enough tranquilizer solution here to put an elephant to sleep." "This time we won't take any chances." "[GIBBERING]" "We'll drop off the meat and after she has a few bites, well she'll go sound asleep." "[CHUCKLES]" "Judy, be careful." "We gotta make sure she's out." "Oh, she's out cold." "That tranquilizing solution really worked." "That ought to keep her out for a while." "Okay, here, Judy, you take this." "Easy, baby." "Easy." "[CUB CATERWAULING]" "Come on." "Come on." "PAULA:" "Come on, Judy." "Yes, sir." "I'd say that's quite a family." "Well, so far." "We'll see what happens with the final stage of the experiment." "Wait, wait, let's get this all straight." "This is the pup that was raised by his own parents, right?" "Right." "He's never been with anything but wolves." "He's never met those two." " Those have never been with wolves." " Right." "So the only mother they have ever known..." " ...is that lioness over there." " Uh-huh." "Okay." "Well, we'll throw him to the wolves." " Got him?" "JACK:" "Yup." "MARSH:" "Okay." "[ALL SNARLING]" " Well, what do you think?" " I don't know." "[ALL CONTINUE SNARLING]" "[ROARING]" "Judy, there's his new family." "I don't think they like each other one little bit." "Nature seldom allows an outsider to be accepted by another family." "Little fella, that's your new family out there." "And you know something, I think they're gonna love you." "PAULA:" "Okay, Judy." "We'll distract the mother and father with the meat and let our orphan make friends with the cubs." "[GIBBERING]" "From what I know about lions the female should follow the male to the meat if they're hungry." "It's working." "Our little friend won't be with us much longer." "There you go." "Don't be afraid, Junior." "Your new mother and father will put them in their place." "Now, go on, scoot." "Well, there's one thing you haven't tried, Jack." "What's that?" "The mother's reaction to him." "[ROARS]" "Oh, yeah." "Maybe that'll go a little bit better, fella." "After all, she raised two exactly like you." "I wish Paula were here for this part of the experiment." "It might make her understand things a little bit better." "Yeah, she sure can get herself involved." "Yup." "Here we go." "[ROARING]" "Whoa." "Instant hatred." "Never be sure a mother will accept a stranger." "More likely they'll kill him." "Well, they haven't made friends yet, but they will." "New mother and father will take care of those roughneck brothers." "[ROARING]" "Judy, I think we fixed up that little lion cub with a nice family." "[LIONS ROARING]" "We'd better go." "Let the new family get to know one another." "Come on, Judy." "Let's go." "[CUB CATERWAULING]" "There you go, feller." "Well, that's that." " Good work, Jack." " Thank you, sir." " You're welcome." " You looking for something?" "No." "JACK:" "Somebody." "Well, yes, actually." "Paula." "I haven't seen her around for some time." "Well, I haven't seen her since you called me." "That was, oh, an hour and a half ago." "It was an hour and 28 minutes." "You're worried, aren't you?" "Oh, well, it's just that lately...." "Did she say where she might be going?" "No, I left her right here with Judy." "I'll bet it's that lion cub." "Jack, would you do me a favor?" "Look around, see if you can find her." "And if you do, radio me." "I'm gonna run out and have a look." "JACK:" "All right." "[BELLOWING]" "Well, Judy, let's go and see how they're getting on, all right?" "Here comes Dad." "Wait until we tell him the news." " Where's that lion cub?" " With his new family." " New family?" " Well, yes." "Judy and I took it away and gave it to another family about 20 minutes ago." "Well, then, he's probably been dead for 15." "Now, get in and show me where you left him." "Come on, Judy." "You should have stayed when Jack asked you to." "You should have seen the end of that experiment." "Well, I know I should have, but I wanted to give him a good home." "All right, Dad, when does the lecture begin?" "When you see that dead cub I don't think any lecture will be necessary." "[GIBBERING]" "Over here." "She should be around here someplace." "Well, there's the mother." "And there's the male." "Where are the cubs?" "Now, there they are." "Right over there." "[CUB CATERWAULING]" "JACK:" "Uh-oh." "Oh, Dad, they've killed him." "PAULA:" "My fault, I shouldn't have done it!" "Wait a minute, no, no, no." "No, he's all right." "Well, they're playing." "Hey, Dad, they are playing." " Does that mean--?" " Yes, yes, it does, honey." "It means they've accepted him." "Boy, I hope you realize how lucky you were." "How very, very lucky." "Yes, Dad, I know that." "You know, by all rights that cub should be dead by now." "The exception to the rule." "But isn't it wonderful?" "He's got a new home now." "Yes, honey, he's found a new home." "But in finding him that home you risked your life and the cub's life." "But, Dad, he would have died if I hadn't have helped." "Paula you really will never now that for sure, now, will you?" "No, I won't." "But I just couldn't trust Mother Nature." "Honey I think you'll find that Mother Nature is a lot kinder than you give her credit for." "[CUB CATERWAULING AND LION ROARING]" "How do you like that?" "Now, that's a real happy family." " Yeah, looks like the little fella made it." " A lot better than what he had before." " Well, that proves one thing." " Oh, what's that?" "That Mother Nature's a lot kinder than we give her credit for." "[GIBBERING]" "[CUB CATERWAULING AND LION ROARING]" "Judy, Judy." "Stay right here." "Now, listen to me." "What have you got in there, huh?" "I'll be." "It's our little anti-social ocelot." "You know, I bet Judy was gonna give it to the family." "Judy." "Now, listen." "You are not to interfere with that lion pride again, do you understand?" "Dad, look." "All right, young lady." "Crossed fingers don't count, and you know that." "Now, do you promise?" "Now, look, I'm not kidding, I want you to truly promise." "[GIBBERING]" "[English" " US" " SDH]"
