"Boy, that worked like a charm, huh?" "It sure did." "Let's go take a count on those, huh?" "Yeah." "Did you read the number on that plane?" "No, I couldn't see one." "Well, there goes our game count for the day." "Look at them." "Yeah, what a waste." "Crazy fool." "Scattering the herd like that." "He should be grounded." "Well, let's get back to the Rover." "Yeah." "No shooting." "Dr. Akubar's orders." "Look. it's just a nosy little chimp." "There are game rangers on this reserve." "They have ears." "Secrecy is the name of the game." "Come on." "It'll take a week to get that herd back together again." "Yeah, well, at least you proved your point before they scattered." "Apparently, we had no scent at all." "Yeah." "No man smell, no fear." "What gets me is, where did you get the idea to mix these all together?" "Well, after we succeeded nicely to each of these animal scents I just had a hunch that if we kind of mixed them all up together that one scent would cancel out another scent." "Kind of like a painter with colours, huh?" "Mix them all together, no colour at all." "Black." "Right. instead of black, we just become..." "...de-scented, uh, to coin a word." "To coin a word." "You know, what amazes me is lion stinks." "The antelope, it doesn't smell at all." "Yeah, well, maybe not to you, but take a look over there." "A lot of lions around here, huh?" "Better put the stopper on that antelope before they mistake us for dinner." "Oh." "JACK:" "Oh." "Yes, Judy old girl. I know." "You saw an airplane." "We did too." "Good girl." "Get in." "Thank you." ""Night in Rome"?" "Well, don't look at me." "Well, this is your vehicle, doctor." "Well, Paula sometimes likes to smell like a girl." "JACK:" "Phew." "I like the lion scent better." "Jambo, Chief Ali." "Hi, chief." "Jambo, my good friend." "And you, Judy." "Allah be with you, too." "As it is written, an animal who can laugh is no longer an animal." "Daktari, my people send you greetings too." "Well, thank you. I've invited the chief to spend a few days with us." "Great." "We have a project I'd like the chief's advice on." "Heh, heh." "Daktari is a man of silver words." "It is I who come to seek the advice." "I'll throw your bike in the back." "We'll give you a lift." "No, no." "All my wives say I need the exercise." "But perhaps Judy can keep me company." "It'd be Judy's honour." "We'll see you in a few minutes." "MARSH:" "Looks like we have company." "JACK:" "So I see." "How's your Arabic?" "MARSH:" ""Royal Library Expedition."" "JACK:" "I didn't know you could read Arabic." "No, just English." "Oh, it is in English." "Yeah, it's in English, too." "[SPEAKS in arabic]" "What's wrong with Clarence?" "What do you mean?" "You know, we come back from a trip, he's usually all over us." "You forget." "A lion relies on his nose, not his eyes." "We're de-scented." "That's right. I forgot I don't smell today." "Well, I wouldn't say that." "Come on." "Let's shake him up a bit, huh?" "Clarence, come here to me." "Oh, that's only Clarence." "He's a pet of ours." "MARSH:" "Took you a moment, didn't it, Clarence?" "Heh, heh." "Do you recognize me now, even if you don't smell me?" "Good boy, Clarence." "We'll see you later." "PAULA:" "Hi, Dad." "MARSH:" "Hi, honey." "Dr. Akubar, this is my father, Dr. Tracy, and Jack Dane." "Hi." "How do you do?" "I have heard of the famous Daktari." "Dr. Akubar is an archeologist and-- Oh, what is that word?" "Archivist." "Yes." "Royal Library." "The government of this country was kind enough to give me this introduction to you." "Excuse me." "Oh, look who's there." "How good to see you." "How are your four wives?" "Fine, thank you." "The grandchildren are numerous, Paula." "They're growing so fast." "You would never recognize them." "If you ever need a babysitter, please call me." "Thank you." "Dr. Akubar, I want you to meet Chief Ali Ngong." "[BOTH speaking in arabic]" "Well, how about some pink gin?" "Thank you." "Yes." "Thank you, no." "Just ginger ale for me." "Right." "Well, this is very interesting, and most impressive." "AKUBAR:" "Thank you." "May the fortune of your house endure." "Thank you." "Please, please, sit down." "And now, if I may, to business." "I will be candid." "I have a project in mind on your reserve which requires the shield of your goodwill." "In what way, doctor?" "You have heard, I presume, of Teepu Teep." "Oh, yes." "Dad, who's Teepu Teep?" "He was a slaver who often operated in this area about a hundred years ago." "Yes. I have here copies of a map." "The original is in the royal library in my country." "MARSH:" "Ah." "AKUBAR:" "I believe that map holds the secret of the vast, lost treasure of Teepu Teep." "A vast, lost treasure?" "Here on Wameru Reserve, Dad?" "Many years ago, when I was a small boy, I remember my grandfather telling me he had actually seen the iron gates where Teepu held our people until they were ransomed." "My grandfather and the neighbouring chiefs would bring silver and gold even uncut diamonds to Teepu to buy their release." "According to this map, this supposed treasure would be in a cave in the northeast corner of our reserve." "I know the caves very well." "Nothing in them but bats." "Well, this inscription here, if I remember my Latin well enough says something to the effect that:" "This chart or map set down by me in secret, "ex adverso," from adversity "anno domini" 1851." "My signature, Omar Hassad." "Well, doctor old Omar Hassad was either a faker or a very poor mapmaker." "No, I've heard of this map." "Several people have tried to work from it." "But if there is a treasure to be found around here it's not where this map says it is." "You won't mind if I look for myself?" "No, by all means." "Jack, you know the area around here." "Why don't you go with him and give him a hand." "Sure." "Oh, I wouldn't impose." "It's no imposition." "As a matter of fact, we like to keep in touch with the people on the reserve." "Jack can radio in your progress." "We'll be very curious." "Yes." "Go right, driver." "[speaking in foreign LANGUAGE]" "What does he speak?" "English?" "Swahili?" "What?" "In as much as his vocal cords have been removed, he doesn't speak at all." "Which I find most satisfactory." "Avoids arguments and testimony." "What's that supposed to mean?" "Go left." "Whoa." "Wait a minute." "The left fork goes to the west side of the reserve." "Exactly." "But the caves are up on the east side." "Here. I'll show you on the map." "Ha, ha, ha." "You really didn't believe that fantastic story of hidden treasure." "Rubbish." "Hey, look, I don't get this." "You will." "In as much as Dr. Tracy was kind enough to inject you into my affairs, you will consider yourself my prisoner." "Hm?" "You will do as I say, or die." "Go left." "She's coming along just fine." "Heh, heh, heh." "I have heard of no man who has ever before shown kindness to the elephants of Africa." "After a million years of living together, I think it's about time we showed kindness to animals, Chief Ali." "To all animals." "Not just for their sake, but for our sake as well." "I believe the entire future of Africa rests on animals like those." "Say those eland, for example." "We can make poaching unprofitable and therefore unnecessary." "I love your plans, Marsh. I love your enthusiasm too." "But it is written:" ""Love does much, but money does everything."" "And it would take much money to start a herd." "To fence them alone would cost a fortune, and my people are poor." "Maybe we wouldn't have to fence them in." "But what of their enemies?" "The lions would scatter our herd overnight." "But supposing we could de-scent our antelope herd." "Could you do such a thing?" "Well, I'm experimenting on that." "Hi, Dad." "Hi." "Has Jack called in yet?" "No, not yet." "PAULA:" "Oh." "It's a hot one today." "All right, Judy." "Just a little." "No!" "You don't drink it." "You smell it." "Come on." "Smell." "See?" "Now, here." "Give me your finger." "Put a little on there, and then you put it on." "Put it on." "Come on." "No, Judy." "There you go." "That's it." "Yeah." "Good girl." "I can't figure out what's happened to Jack. lt's after 6." "Oh, I wouldn't worry, honey." "If you want, why not run to the house, try him again on the two-way radio." "All right." "Say, Mike, can I see you a minute?" "Say, Mike, if Jack hasn't called in by sundown why don't you run out there in the morning, look around." "He's probably got a weak battery." "Didn't like the way that truck started." "Yeah." "AKUBAR:" "How many guns?" "GARTH:" "Eighty, so far." "AKUBAR:" "Excellent." "Hey, who's that bloke?" "He's an interloper, unfortunately for him." "What are we going to do with the gentleman?" "Well, for the moment, lock him up." "The rifles." "Look, as long as I'm your guest here why don't you let me know what's going on." "Well, maybe you'll live to find out, huh?" "Why should he live to find out?" "Why don't you let me take care of him?" "There's no need to." "Daktari Tracy believed my story about looking for hidden treasure." "Now he thinks I'm 25 miles away on the other side of the reserve." "Come on, Rodney." "Break out the brandy." "We'll drink to our success." "Righto." "Hey, Dr. Akubar." "Look." "Lions, again." "They come around every night." "They make me uneasy-like." "Lions?" "Nonsense." "Wait till they get our scent." "They'll disappear fast enough." "Yeah, but who says they won't come back?" "I do." "Lions shun the scent of man." "Nothing to fear from them." "Two more parachute drops, then we load the crates onto the truck." "Tomorrow, by sundown, we deliver 200 guns across the border." "And get paid for them before we turn them over." "Oh, you are mercenary." "Thank you, Judy." "But today I'll do the dishes, all right?" "Dad, Mike's here." "Yeah, Mike?" "l left at dawn like you said." "Went to the caves on the border." "And?" "Nothing." "No truck, no Jack, no Dr. Akubar, nothing." "is it possible they could have become lost?" "Not Jack, not in the reserve." "Dad, you are worried, aren't you?" "I'm more puzzled, honey, than anything." "I know, Judy." "I know you saw an airplane, but...." "Judy, look out!" "is she predicting rain?" "No, I think she's trying to tell me something that she saw that I didn't." "Judy, I think I'm getting the message." "Judy, you and I are going for a fast ride." "l'll keep in touch." "Okay." "Move over, Judy." "Bye." "RODNEY:" "Dr. Akubar!" "Dr. Akubar!" "Dr. Akubar!" "Dr. Akubar!" "There's a truck coming." "A man and a chimp." "That same nosy chimp again?" "l guess so." "That would be Daktari Tracy." "I wonder how he found us." "Oh, never mind." "One man warned is worth two." "I'll take care of Daktari." "You two disappear." "But be wary, and watchful." "It is always a pleasure when friends meet again." "[SPEAKS in arabic]" "Where's Jack?" "He didn't return?" "Well, how could he?" "There's the truck." "I am confused, Dr. Tracy." "He guided my servant and me here, and then he said he wanted to walk." "Oh?" "Yeah." "I'm alarmed." "Hadn't you better leave here immediately and try to find him?" "I think you'd better tell me the truth." "It's far less painful than a broken jaw." "Rodney." "Garth." "You're running guns, huh?" "Yes." "Just like the one my servant has on you now." "Afternoon." "Dr. Tracy, I want you to meet my associates." "Gentlemen, this is Dr. Tracy, your host." "Unfortunately, Dr. Tracy is a seeker of the truth." "It is written, "The truth breeds hatred."" "Let's lock him up." "JACK:" "Oh, well." "Hi, Judy." "You two know each other, I believe." "Dr." "Livingstone, Mr. Stanley." "l presume." "Sorry I couldn't warn you, Marsh." "Forget it." "Now get to the back of the cave." "MARSH:" "Looks like we got gunrunners on our hands." "Yeah, look at all this." "Enough hardware around here to start a war." "Or a revolution." "Oh, boy." "All over the place." "There wouldn't happen to be any spare ammunition around, or nothing?" "Naturally not. I checked." "Yeah, I didn't think so." "They got it all out in the tent." "Yeah, figures." "Hey, Akubar!" "Hey!" "Mind if I ask just what your plans are for us?" "Well, as Lenin once said, "You can't make revolutions with rose water."" "Oh, you quote Lenin too, huh?" "AKUBAR:" "Mm-hm." "Well, just how does that affect us?" "Only that you will remain where you are until some far-off day when somebody finds your skeletons." "Oh, I just thought I'd ask." "AKUBAR:" "We'll be finished here in a few minutes, gentlemen." "I want to thank you for your patience and ask you to, once again, step back in the cave." "RODNEY:" "Move back over there." "AKUBAR:" "My deepest regrets, gentlemen." "Oh, Akubar, just a moment." "If this revolution of yours succeeds, what happens next?" "We'll move into the Wameru Reserve as basis for our operations." "What about the animals?" "Oh, the animals in your compound will be most valuable, doctor as food for our soldiers." "And since I shall never see you gentlemen again" "Ooh, what a terrible word. "Never."" "Judy." "Judy, what's the matter?" "Come here, come here, come here." "Oh, look at this." "Oh, for crying out loud, look at that necklace." "Judy." "Judy, where did you get this necklace, huh?" "Judy, can you show us?" "Hey, it's a flue." "Must lead into another cave, huh?" "Yeah." "Boy, it's a big one." "It looks endless from here." "Judy." "Judy, come here." "Something in there really scared you, didn't it?" "Sure did." "Judy look, why don't you go back in there and see what else you can find, huh?" "She is scared." "What--?" "What, are you afraid of the dark?" "Now, look, Judy, we'll be right here." "We won't leave you, honest." "Now, will you try and go back in?" "Hm?" "Go on, go on." "Attagirl." "Go on." "MARSH:" "Come on." "We'll help you." "That's a good girl." "Go on." "JACK:" "Come on." "Here she is." "Come on, Judy." "Come on, Judy." "Come on, girl." "Come on, Judy." "Attagirl." "Come on." "There we go." "Come over here." "Good girl." "Good girl, Judy." "Here." "Give it to me." "Give it." "Wow." "Take a look at that." "Hoo." "It's an uncut diamond." "The iron gates outside, could they be the ones Chief Ali's grandfather saw?" "Could be." "Yeah, this could be the slave-holding pens and back in there could've been Teepu Teep's treasure room." "is that an airplane?" "Yeah." "Another parachute drop." "Yeah, probably. it might be the last one." "They'll be out of here soon." "If we could just delay them for a little while." "Sooner or later, Paula will call the police." "Jack if that was Teepu Teep's treasure room no human being ever got through here." "Well, there has to be another door." "Right." "But where?" "Judy." "Judy, listen to me." "Listen." "There's another entrance." "You know, with sunshine pouring through." "Lots of sunshine." "Not here, but back in there somewhere." "Can you show us, Judy?" "Can you show it to us?" "Go on, Judy." "Come on." "Go on." "Find the other entrance." "Come on, Judy." "Try." "Just one more time." "Attagirl." "That's it, girl." "Go on." "Judy." "Judy, good girl." "You were right." "There is another exit." "Yeah." "Hey, listen." "Judy." "Judy, listen." "Listen to me." "I got an idea." "Go over and let the air out of their tyres on the truck." "Got that, Judy?" "The air out of their tyres." "Hsss." "You know." "Hsss." "That's it." "That's it, that's it." "Go." "Go on, Judy." "Go." "Go now." "Come on." "That's it." "That's it, Judy." "That's right." "Uns" " Unscrew it." "Good girl." "Good girl." "Judy." "Pick up" " Yeah." "Push." "Push." "Good girl." "That's a good girl." "Judy, get the other one." "The other tire." "Go around." "Go on." "By George, she's got it." "All right, hurry up." "Let us depart." "Dr. Akubar." "The revolution is going to have to wait a while." "Look." "It's the valve. it's loose." "Hey, this one's flat too." "Kismet." "That filthy, filthy kismet." "l don't know about kismet but we'll have to tighten up the valves, pump up the tyres." "How long will that take?" "About a half hour." "At least, for each tire." "Say an hour." "Start pumping." "Hey, listen to them lions." "They sure make me uneasy-like." "Now, don't you pay any attention to the lions." "Start pumping." "I'll start on that one." "Paula, I've been thinking painful thoughts." "I should've warned Marsh yesterday that Dr. Akubar is not what he seems." "He's not a Muslim as he pretends." "How do you know this?" "He accepted cocktail." "We Muslims are forbidden to touch alcohol." "Why would he pretend?" "That is the question I'm turning in my mind." "PAULA:" "Hm." ""Carta." "Ex adverso."" "Omar Hassad." "That's it, chief!" "Oh, Dad said if he remembered his Latin." "Well, he'd better take a brush-up course." ""Ex adverso" doesn't mean "from adversity."" "It means "from opposite."" "Ooh." "Turn the map on the opposite side." "Look." "Even the directions are reversed." "East becomes west and west becomes east." "Ex adverso." "Maybe that's Teepu Teep's secret." "Listen, Judy." "Listen very carefully now." "I want you to go get the bottles in the Rover." "The bottles, Judy." "Listen to me." "The bottles in the Rover." "She doesn't understand." "Judy, the bottles." "You know, the" " Judy." "Judy." "The bottles." "The bottles." "Bottles." "Bottles." "You know, the" "Bottles." "Judy. ln the Rover." "The" "She's confused now." "I'll tell you what. I'll dab, you smell." "What do you mean "l smell"?" "Well, smell a little, will ya?" "l'll dab, you smell." "All right. I'll smell, you dab." "The bottles." "The bottles, Judy." "Bottles." "Bottles." "Bottles." "Judy." "Judy." "Yeah, that's it, that's it." "Go, go, go." "Hey, Rodney." "Come and give us a spell." "Boy, it's hot out here." "What's she got?" "l don't know." "Here, Judy." "Oh, no. lt's that garbage of Paula's." "Judy, Judy." "We don't want Paula's perfume." "No, no, no." "We want the bottles." "The bottles with the animals' scents." "How do you say "antelope" in chimpanzee?" "How would I know?" "Judy, go get all the bottles." "All the bottles." "All the bottles." "Go on." "Go." "Come on, Judy." "Come on, come on, hurry." "Come on." "That's a girl, Judy." "Good girl." "Yeah, give" " You got it?" "Yeah." "Okay, now." "What do we do with them?" "We de-scent Judy." "Come on." "Now we de-scent ourselves." "All right, but why us?" "I'll tell you later." "Just in case." "ln case what?" "Just in case." "All right." "Judy." "Judy, listen to me now." "Listen care" " Judy, come here." "Come over here." "Take this and go over and pour some on each of those men over there." "Got that?" "Good girl." "On each of those men." "Okay." "Go on." "Go." "[whispering] Attagirl, Judy." "Up in the truck." "Up in the truck." "Good girl." "Go on over." "Go on over." "Attagirl." "Just pour, pour, pour." "Go over to the people in the tent." "Get up on the tent." "On top of the-- On top of the tent." "Man without his boots." "Two down." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Pesky little ape is back." "What are you talking about?" "She was there a second ago." "Where?" "On the tent." "How could she have gotten out?" "l don't know." "Squeezed through the bars, I expect." "I'd like to get him in sight for one minute." "Now, you get back to work on that truck." "Both of you." "Judy, go over." "Get the man with the crazy robes." "MAN:" "Hey!" "Judy, get out of there." "AKUBAR:" "What's the matter?" "Yes, I know." "That chimp is around." "So are the lions." "Those beasts are up to something." "No danger, eh?" "Look at that lion!" "Don't shoot." "You'll only stir them up." "They're all over the place." "The cave." "We can lock ourselves in." "It's our only chance." "Come on." "RODNEY:" "Hey!" "There are lions out there!" "Are you blokes mad?" "They're coming this way." "l think they prefer us." "RODNEY:" "What's so special about us?" "Go on." "Lock the door." "Well, we're de-scented." "They should leave us alone." "Yeah." "Hope they know the rules." "Hm." "Let's hope we don't stink." "Hey, where's Akubar?" "I don't know." "Let's not wait to find out." "He's armed and we're not." "Good point." "MARSH:" "Can't smell us but look at them get interested in those real gazelle out there." "Well, it worked." "Oh, great." "Where's the key?" "Do you see it?" "MARSH:" "It must've fallen down." "I have the key, gentlemen." "It is written that men should face their deaths standing." "So would you get out of the car, please?" "Drop that gun." "Drop it, I say." "Marsh, I have a message for you from Paula." "Oh?" "She says you must brush up on your Latin." "Does that make any sense to you?" "No." "Well, Dr. Akubar." "What do you think Lenin would say to this?" "Kismet." "Filthy kismet." "MARSH:" "Easy." "What do you know?" "Well, the old legend was true after all, huh?" "Well, if only Akubar and his friends had only known." "Hm?" "Instead of running guns, they could've stolen all this." "All right, that's enough." "Come on." "Put it back." "Put it back." "Put it back." "The treasure of Teepu Teep?" "That's right, Chief Ali, and it's all yours." "It was extorted from the ancestors of your people." "Allah be praised." "There is now no doubt of where the money is coming from for our game fund and experiment." "Thank you, Daktari." "Well, don't thank me." "Thank Judy." "Hey." "Come here, princess." "Well, well." "Here, Judy." "MARSH:" "Ha, ha, ha." "[English" " US" " SDH] Re-edit by Daktari Man Jr."
