"Yes, they're gonna make a new documentary film on African bird life." "Matter of fact, uh, should be along any time now." "(SIGHS) Well, you've done it again."

" I'm Jon Brocki." "How are you?" " How are you, Mr. Brocki?" " Mr. Brocki." " That lion you saw is undoubtedly Clarence." "He's practically a member of the family." " He is cross-eyed?" " That's Clarence." "(CHUCKLES) I thought for a while I was seeing things." "No, Mrs. Brocki." "Clarence normally doesn't welcome visitors to Wameru, but believe me, you both are very, very welcome." "Thank you." "I'll never forget that film you did with Dr. Marlov." " In Uganda." "You saw that?" " Oh, yes, both Paula and I did." "We saw the showing in Joburg." "It was excellent." "Thank you very much." "Professor Marlov is a remarkable man." "A great anthropologist." "Well, that's very true, but, um, frankly, I was referring to your photography, Mrs. Brocki." " First rate." " Thank you." "Who did the narration on the lecture?" " I did." " Oh, you did an excellent job." "(LAUGHS) We both thank you." "I only wish we had more appreciative audiences like you." "Surely, it must have been a great success." "Well, most of our films are, uh, labors of love." "We only lost a few thousand on the Marlov project."

"So can we come along, please?" " Well, I'm not sure, I...." " I don't know why not." "If Daktari has no objection?" "Well, no, um...." "Well, Baratu is a long way from the larger animals." "You're going along, aren't you, Paula?" "Oh, well, I'd like to." "DAKTARI:" "Well, I'm sure Jenny would enjoy it." "PAULA:" "Then I could take care of her." "JON:" "Then it's all settled." " Oh, thank you, Mr. Brocki!" " Oh, you're welcome." "And thank you, Mrs. Brocki." "I'll see you in the morning." "See you in the morning." "That's certainly very nice of you." "I hope she won't be any problem." "Oh, no problem at all." "In fact, we'd be delighted." ""No problem at all." "In fact, we'd be delighted."" "Nadja, it was important to her." "Remember you told me when you were a little girl how your father used to take you along on his camera trips?" "Jon, why can't you forget about the past and think of today?" "You know how tight we are on time and film." "We have neither to waste on a seven-year-old child." "And what about a little affection?" "We can't afford to waste that either?" "What did you mean by that?" "Nadja I know how hard it's been." "Just because I object to you being impractical and impulsive." "Well, maybe if if we had a child...." "A child?" "To drag halfway around the world, making that film that is gonna make screen history?" "Jon, it won't work." "You know it won't." "It was your decision too, you know." "I know, I know." "Well, maybe both of us were wrong." "No, the time will come, that film will be made." "I will not settle for you being second rate, unrecognized for the talent that you have." "Huh."

"Here, Jenny." "Use this." "Oh, thank you." " May I use it, Mrs. Brocki?" " Yes, of course you may." "You'll get better pictures with that anyway." "Well, everyone all set?" "Yes, we're ready." " Oh, Mike." " Mm-hm?" "Uh, keep in touch, will you?" "Hedley's called again about that trouble up at Manobi Village." " MIKE:" "Leopard still on the loose?" " DAKTARI:" "Apparently." "He has half a dozen trackers out on the trail, but he may need some help." "Oh, it's nothing for you folks to worry about." "Manobi's miles to the north of here and Baratu's miles to the south."

"They look almost like the Amazon parrot." "I promised Dr. Carnos at Ngoro I'd try to bring him one back." "Oh, here it is here." "Right." "Take a good look, Jenny." " I bet I'll see it first." " I bet you do." "We'll be watching too." " Don't go too far, Jenny." " I won't." "(BIRD SQUAWKING)" "(HOOTING)" "No, Judy!" "That isn't a bird yet!" "And it won't be, unless you put it back."

"Paula better come and take care of things at the compound." "We're leaving right now." "Come on, Jenny." "Uh, can you make it back all right?" "Oh, no problem." "You need me too?" "Probably not, but if so, we'll call." "Oh, Paula, can't I stay here?" "Please?" "Well, I'm not sure, honey." "Oh, she'll be all right." "We'll keep an eye on her." "You promise to stay next to the truck?" "Well, all right." "You can stay then." "Don't worry, little one." "The leopard is way up north." " Across the river." " Phew!" " Where's Jenny?" " I left her with the Brockis." " They said they'd take care of her." " Oh." "Well, all right." "Mike, how's the gas?" "MIKE:" "Plenty, and the reserve tank is full?" "Okay, well, we should be back before nightfall." "(CHITTERING)" "No, Judy, we're supposed to take a nap." "You heard what Mrs. Brocki said." "(SCREECHING)" "An ostrich!" "Stand still, Mr. Ostrich!" " (SCREECHING)" " Stand still!" "This isn't a movie camera!" "Stop running, you!" "(HOOTING)" "(CHIRPING)" "Oh, we should call Jenny to see this." "She's resting and out of our hands."

"Don't go too far!" "Judy, where are you?" "Judy, come back!" "Judy, please come back!" "Judy!" " What did you find?" " (HOOTING)" "Let's go tell Mr. Brocki." "Wait!" "We'll leave a trail to find our way back." "(HOOTING)" "Judy, I know!" "Remember Hansel and Gretel?" "They did it with breadcrumbs." "Come on, Judy!" "Come on, Judy!" "Jenny?" "Jenny!" " Jon, the child's gone." " JON:" "Nadja." "Here we are, Mrs. Brocki." "We found a cave, and Judy found this inside." "And we marked the way back with threads." "Jenny, you promised not to wander off." "Jenny, you go back to the truck and you stay there." " First she's got to understand" " Now!" " Jenny...." " But we just wanted to show you!" "(WHISPERS) It'll be all right." "Go on, go on." "(HOOTING)" "Jon..." "look at this." "It can't be." "It's a hand ax, the first crude tool of prehistoric man." "Perhaps of an even earlier age than those from... from the caves at Uganda." "You know Dr. Marlov always felt that a very important discovery might be made in this area." "And he was right!" "It's here and we found it!" "Jenny knows where the cave is." "We'll photograph her going in." "No, darling." "Darling, can't you imagine what the newspaper headlines would be?" ""Seven-year-old child makes archaeological history."" "Jon, I have a much better way." "We'll go back to Wameru, and we'll say nothing." "Then tomorrow, we'll come here alone." "And we'll locate the cave." "Then a few months later we'll come back with a, with a complete expedition." "Correctly, correctly financed, correctly equipped, and by mistake, you'll find the cave." "You'll discover it." "Oh, Jon, it'll be the Brocki Cave." "That's what they'll call it." "Darling, this is what we've always waited for!" "It'll mean, it'll mean publicity and, and all kinds of funds, museums, and, and recognition." "Recognition that both of us deserve, darling." "This is the way it should be, Jon." "This is the way it must be!" "But Jenny, she knows." "I'll handle Jenny." "Oh, Jon, please play it my way." "Please?" "It's been so many years." "Oh, please!" "All right." " Jenny?" " I'm really sorry, Mrs. Brocki." "We just forgot." "NADJA:" "Of course you did." "But you know if Daktari found out about that, that silly old cave he'd know that you broke your promise to us and and he'd be very disappointed, wouldn't he?" "I guess so." "And he'd be very angry with us because we weren't watching you and... you wouldn't like that, now would you?" "Gosh, no!" "So let's promise each other not to tell Daktari anything." "No matter what." "Okay?" "And about that old rock that you found, well, I'll trade you for it." "Dr. Carnos doesn't really need that bird that we have in the cage." "That, uh, Jardine's parrot." "So I'll give it to you." "A bird for a rock." " Now, that's fair, isn't it?" " Gosh, it sure is!" "(HOOTING)" "And, um, we have our secret, promise?" "Cross your heart." "Okay." "Well, let's start back." "Judy!" " Judy?" " (HOOTING)" "Come on, Judy." "You're still a movie star today." "That's right, Judy." "We can't finish without you." "(HOOTING)" "Uh, Dad and Mike won't be back for another hour." " Sure you can find the way?" " There's no need for you to worry." " We can manage, thank you." " We just have a few shots left." " We won't be long." " I know someone who's rather unhappy that you only need Judy and not her." "Well, I'm sorry we can't take Jenny." "But we're on a terribly tight schedule." "Yes, truly we are sorry." "Especially since Jenny is such a good girl." "Good morning, Jenny." "She loves that bird you gave her." "It was very kind of you." "Oh, that's all right." "Um, come on, Judy." "(HOOTING)" "(ENGINE STARTS)" "Jenny, honey, are you unhappy because they didn't take you too?" "That's not why." "They came out of the bush over there." "And of course we have Jenny's obliging trail." "Come on, Judy." " I'm sure it was this direction." " Well, there's no sign of it." "(HOOTING)" "Follow it." "(HOOTING)" "There, there." "There's another one." "So much for Jenny's trail." "(HOOTING)" " We'll have to search the whole area." " Oh!" "It's impossible." "And maybe not necessary." "Judy." "Judy." "Judy, that rock you found yesterday, the one Jenny liked, remember?" "It had a very strange shape...." "Oh, if only you hadn't lost it, I could show it to her." "I didn't lose it, I put it under the seat." "Then where is it?" "Judy, listen." "Yesterday you found something." "A rock." "Jenny liked it." "Now, you'd like to take her another one." " Wouldn't you?" " (HOOTING)" "Good." "Then show us where you found it." "The cave." "Take us to the cave, Judy." "Come on." "Take us to the cave." "(HOOTING)" "Yes, it would be an area like this." "Where, Judy?" "Keep going." "Where's the cave, Judy, with the rocks for Jenny?" "(HOOTING)" "Hold on." "Look out." " Okay, I've got you." "Don't worry." " Okay." " I've got you." " All right." " You all right?" " Yeah, I'm fine." "Okay." "It must be." "In here, Judy?" "(HOOTING)" "Jon, be careful!" "The earth, it slides!" "I'll be careful." "We were right." "Nadja, we were right!" "Hand axes!" "Dozens of them!" "And bone relics!" " How ancient?" " Older than Marlov's discovery." "I don't think another human being has been in here in over a million years." "All right, bring a few bone relics out so we can check further, or hand axes." "Nothing else." "Leave everything else exactly as it is!" "All right." "(HOOTING)" "No, Judy!" "No, no." "Put that down." "Jenny won't want that." "Take that." "Right there." "Here, and take this." "Come on, Judy." "Come on." "Jon!" "Come see this out here at the entrance to the cave!" "Nadja, look!" "Look at this beautiful specimen." " Oh!" " Don't pull it out." "I'll take your picture and that'll be proof." "(HOOTING)" "All right, now pull it." " (RUMBLING)" " Jon, watch out!" " Watch out!" " Nadja!" "Get out of the way!" "Nadja." " Give me your hand." " Jon, hold on." "Hold on." "Wait a minute." "Wait, Jon." " Give me both hands." "Jon!" " Watch out!" " (GRUNTING) I can't do it!" " Nadja!" "It won't work!" "Jon!" " Get me out!" " Let me" "Get me a long stick of some kind." "Get me something" " that I can pull myself up." " Jon." "(HOOTING)" " Hi." " Hi." "Well, tell me, Jenny, Jenny, bright as a penny." "How does your garden grow today?" "That's, um, a very pretty bird you have there." "Do you like it?" "Yeah, I love him." "Did you have fun yesterday?" "It was okay." "I know somebody that's pretty unhappy." "What's wrong, honey?" "Nothing." "Why is Mrs. Brocki so mean?" " Has she been mean to you?" " Well, not actually to me." "It's the way she treats Mr. Brocki." " I like him." " Mm-hm." "Well, honey, sometimes things don't work out for people like they they'd hoped it would." "And when that happens, well, they they become unhappy with themselves, and without really realizing it, they take it out on other people." " It's what we call frustration." " Oh." "Jenny, where did you get this rock?" "I can't tell you." "You can't tell me?" "Why not?" "Well, I made a promise." "Jenny This rock was shaped and used by a human being thousands of years ago." "Could be very, very important to the whole world." "And if you know where it came from...." "Do you know?" "Jenny, when people love each other, they must trust each other." " You know you can trust me." " I made a promise." "A cross-your-heart promise." "Well, promises are all right to keep, honey, if if they're not bad promises." "Do you think this was a bad promise?" "Jenny?" "Oh, Daktari, I wanna tell!" "But I just can't!" "I really wanna tell!" " This is all I could find." " Fine, put it across that rock." "Across the rock." "Now, sit on it!" "Put your weight on it!" " I can't." " Put your weight on it." " All right." " Pull!" " Stay on it!" " I am!" "I am!" " Are you out?" " All right!" " Oh, Jon!" " All right." "Judy." "We've got to get her out." "Nadja, in the car, there's a small spade." "Go get it." "In the car, a small spade." "Get it, Nadja." "No!" " You might get caught again." " I'll have to take that risk." "Now go get it." "Jon, if we do get her out, she'll lead the others to the cave and we'll lose credit for the discovery." "She'll suffocate in there." "Do you think I want it to happen?" "Judy is a chimp!" "She's not a human being." "She's a, she's a chimp!" "One of thousands in Africa." "And they die every single day." "From animals or predators or what-have-you." "I don't like this decision any more than you do, but but it can mean everything to us." "Everything we've worked for all these years." "This is the way it's got to be!" "Oh, Jon, please." "This is our last chance to make it." "Please, Jon, please!" "(SOBBING)" "(WHIMPERING)" " (HORN HONKING) - (TRUMPETING)" " Which way was it, honey?" " Gosh, I'm not sure." "So they came here to shoot scenes of Judy, huh?" "Jenny, can you find that trail of yours?" "I think it was this way." "Judy!" "Judy!" "Where are you?" "Now, remember, Jon, we say nothing." "All right." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello, you still having trouble with the leopard, huh?" " I gather you've already found her." " We were working." "With your movie equipment still in the truck?" "We don't know what you're talking about." "Frightening a seven-year-old into silence isn't very worthy of you, Mrs. Brocki." " Where's the cave?" " And where's Judy?" "We don't have to stand here and listen to this." "Come on, Jon." "Mr. Brocki, you didn't answer Marsh's question." "And Judy apparently led you there." "All right, where is she?" "I'm asking you, where is she?" "Please make them tell, Daktari." "Please make them tell." "You have no authority to question us or detain us." "Now, come on, Jon." "Marsh, suppose Mr. Brocki and I settle this alone." "No, Mike, let him go." "Please, Mr. Brocki." "Please tell us where Judy is." "Look, Mr. Brocki, Judy happens to mean a great deal to us." "And from the looks of you, I have the feeling that she's trapped inside that cave." "Oh, no!" "Then Judy will die!" "Mrs. Brocki!" "Please, please, Mrs. Brocki." "I can't find that cave again!" "And if Judy's in there, and we don't find her, she'll die." " I'll make them tell us." " Wait a minute." "You can have the bird." "And my doll." "And the beads Paula gave me." "That's all I've got." "You can have them." "If you won't let her die!" "Please, Mrs. Brocki!" "Can I give her Judy, Daktari?" "I'll even give you Judy herself, if you just won't let her die." "Please, Mrs. Brocki." "(SOBS)" "It's all right." "Jon, no." "Careful, this stuff's still coming down." "You could cave the whole thing in on her." "JON:" "Wait, wait!" "I should have thought." "Remember, Nadja, when we worked with Professor Marlov." "He said, often there were two entrances to these ancient caves." "That's right!" "Jenny and I will go look for it!" " Probably in that area." " All right!" "Mike, keep digging here." "I'll help them look around." " Right." " Oh, and Mike." "Work as fast as you can." "I...." "(WHIMPERING)" "(BIRDS SCREECHING)" "Go away!" "You won't get any business here today!" "Judy!" "Judy!" "Judy!" "(HOOTING)" "JENNY:" "Judy!" "Judy!" "Please help us find her in time." "Please." "Amen." "Mrs. Brocki, you hurt your hands." "They'll be all right, honey." "Look, let's keep on looking." "You look over that way, and I'll go over there, huh?" "(SCREECHING)" "NADJA:" "Daktari!" "Jenny!" "All of you, here!" "Jenny, it looks as if it might be here." "Judy!" " Judy, where are you?" " (HOOTING)" "Daktari!" "Jon!" "We're over here!" "This could be it." " Did you find it?" " This looks as if it might be it." "It could be." "She's right, if we can move this rock." " Yell again, Jenny." " Judy!" "Answer me!" " Judy, answer me!" " (WHIMPERING)" "Come on, let's see if we can get this open." "(GRUNTING)" "It's the second entrance, all right." "Judy!" " (WHIMPERING)" " Judy!" "She's all right." "(HOOTING)" "She's there!" "And she's alive!" "(HOOTING)" "Judy!" "Judy!" "And I persuaded Officer Hedley to drop any formal charges against you." "That's very forgiving of you, Daktari." "Well, it is true that you two almost made us lose Judy." "But by the same token, you also saved her." "And for that, we're grateful." "Thank you." "Mr. Brocki, I, um, I'm gonna try to use a little persuasion on the museum director at Ngoro." "After all, I think it's only logical that you two should be the one to make a film record of the excavation of the cave." "Oh... thank you." "We appreciate that." "You will say goodbye to Jenny for us, won't you?" " Certainly." " MIKE:" "I don't think that'll be necessary." "Don't forget this, Mrs. Brocki." "He's really yours." "Oh, and here's your camera." "No, Jenny, you keep that." "From us." "JENNY:" "Oh, thank you." " Goodbye, Jenny." " Bye, Mrs. Brocki." " Bye, Mr. Brocki." " Goodbye, Jennifer." "Golly, no one ever kissed my hand before." "Or called me Jennifer before." "(HOOTING)" "Oh, I almost forgot." "I promised you Judy." "You don't really want her, do you?" " (HOOTING)" " I'll tell you a secret, Jenny." "Last night, Mr. Brocki and I decided that, we'd like to have a child of our own." "And if you don't think that Judy would be offended we were kind of hoping that it might be a blonde."
