"♪ (THEME MUSIC PLAYS) ♪" "(HEDLEY):" "And it's awfully decent of you to take care of the governor's pet dog while he's away." " Dawn's the apple of his eye." " (VEHICLE APPROACHES)" "Oh, excuse me, Marsh, it's the, uh, prisoners from the Nagoro jail." " Hi, Daktari." " Hello, Duke, Chip." "All right, men, out." "Officer Hedley, here are the prisoners, Roberts and Jones, duly released by the Nagoro jail." " (HOOTING)" " Well, there's my old pal, Judy." "How you doing, Judy, baby?" "(HOOTING)" "Sergeant, the envelope." "Key to the handcuffs." "They're gone, sir." "(HEDLEY):" "Well, have you any idea where they are?" "(MAKUMBA):" "No, sir." "Well, this is a fine kettle of fish, I must say." "Do you realize the duplicate keys are back in Nagoro jail?" "We shall have to return the prisoners there." " (HOOTING) - (MAKUMBA):" "Yes, sir." " Judy, can you please--?" " What is it, Judy?" "(TEETH CLICKING)" "Uh, Hedley, old man, I think that Judy suspects that her old friends Chip and Duke have the key to the handcuffs." " Impossible." " (MUMBLING):" "Oh, I don't know..." "Well, maybe you're right." "Sergeant, search them." "No, no, no." "Hedley, it won't be necessary." "Judy, you little rat-fink, you." "You turn out to be a stool pigeon." "Is that what they teach you at Wameru?" "(HOOTS)" "Duke, you know what Judy hates most?" "She hates to be locked in a cage." "Nah, she just wants you to be free, like she is." "But, Daktari, we don't want to be free." "We like it in that jail." "I was head chef there." "You should have seen the beautiful casseroles I whipped up." "And, Daktari, Daktari-- Excuse me, Mr. Hedley" "Daktari, listen." "His pies..." "His pies were out of this world." "Listen, Doc, I was the manager of the mess hall, you know, and believe me, never, but never have I had a customer walk out on me." "No." "Please, Hedley, please, couldn't we go back?" "Those were the happiest years of my life." "I'm sorry, chaps, but the state can no longer support you." "You're on your own." "But what am I gonna do for a living?" "Find some honest employment." "You know, Chip, I should arrest you for stealing those keys." "But I believe in tempering mercy with justice." "(HOOTING)" "Now, I've had my men fix up your old truck for you." "Now, there's enough petrol in it to get you across the border." "I suggest you get cracking and be out of the country by nightfall." "Good luck, chaps, and do stay out of jail." "Bye, bye, Daktari." "Goodbye, Chip." "Good luck, Duke." "Oh, Marsh, I would like to say goodbye to old Clarence." "Well, certainly, come on over." "Good old Clarence, you old boy." "Dukey." "Dukey, listen to me." "They can't do that to us." "It's a crime, wanting us to go straight." "Yeah, we've got to get back into that jail." "Listen, Duke, this is our only solution for our old age." "Maybe we could break in, like we did before." "No, no, no." "No, we've got to commit a serious crime, something that'll give us life or something like that." "No, no, no." "I wouldn't want to hurt anybody." "No." "Who's talking about murder or grand larceny?" " Listen." " (GROWLING HAPPILY)" "There." "There, I have something in mind." "We steal Clarence." "You know how rough they are on animal poachers." "Sure." "And the way everybody loves that old Clarence," " we'll probably get life." " Shh!" "Come on, we've got things to do." "(HOOTS)" "Well, I hope that's the last we see of those two old duffers." "Aw, they're well-meaning fellows, Hedley." "I imagine they've learned how by now to stay out of trouble." "Say, incidentally, what crime did they commit in the first place?" "None, really." "They more or less broke into the jail and found a soft berth there, but last week, a new warden came in, found out the truth and evicted them." "Unfortunately, if they get arrested again, they get very stiff sentences, because technically, they'll be second offenders." "(HOOTS)" "Well, they sure seem to love that old jail in Nagoro." "Marsh, that old jail is being pulled down." "From now on, all criminals are gonna be sent to the new prison in the northern territories:" "A maximum security penitentiary." "A sort of African Alcatraz." " Hmm." " They wouldn't like it there a bit." "No, I don't imagine they would." "Well, let's just hope they have a guardian angel that'll spend her time looking after them." "(JUDY HOOTING)" "Well, how goes the night?" "Hmm." "Everybody's at peace with the world, except those two." " (DAWN GROWLING) - (JACK):" "Hey, Judy." "I know that's Clarence's bone you're trying to protect, but as long as Dawn is here, she's the most important animal in the compound." "You understand?" "See the kind of respect I get?" "Now, come on, Judy." "You're getting to be a pest." "Ok, Dawn, that big, juicy bone is all yours now, so how about cutting out the yapping so we can all get some sleep, huh?" "Jack, let's put her in the cage where she'll be safe from Judy." "Good idea." "Come on." " (JUDY HOOTS) - (CLARENCE GROWLS)" "Judy, Clarence, now settle down." "Dawn gets the bone." "I don't wanna hear any backtalk from either of you." "If either of you wakes up Marsh and Paula, you'll hear a little roaring from me." "(BLOWS RASPBERRY)" "(JACK):" "As long as Dawn is here, she's the most important animal in the compound." "(CHITTERING)" "(HOOTING)" "(CHITTERING)" "(HOOTS)" "(HOOTING)" "(DUKE):" "Clarence, come on." "Taste it, it's delicious." "Oh, Clarence, please, please, Clarence." "Come on." "Come on, taste it." "It's delicious." "It's delicious." "He's got a very poor appetite." "Hmm." "Clarence, Clarence, old friend, now, look, we're here to steal you." " Now, come along like a nice li" " Shh!" "Clarence, baby, listen." "It's only for a short while." "Look, look, Clarence, look." "I fixed it especially for you." "It..." "Wait a minute, Clarence." "Wait a minute." "Look, Clarence, look." "Lots of salt." "Listen, uh, Dukey." "What are you doing?" "It will make him growl." "It will wake up the whole house." "Good." "Then we'll be caught red-handed." "Clarence, growl." "No, no, no, no." "Dukey boy, that will only be an attempted robbery." "You know what the magistrate is liable to give us for that?" "A suspended sentence, and a stiff lecture." "No, we've got to remove this cat from the premises and then get caught with him in our possession." "That's the law!" "Oh." "All right." "Clarence..." "Come along with us, Clarence, please?" "Pretty please?" "Look, Clarence, back at our camp," "I've got a fricassee, Clarence, that'll make you drool." " It'll make your mouth water." " (GROWLS)" "It's delicious." "It's wonderful." "It's not gonna work." "Well." "Well, then, we'll have to use tranquilizer." "Oh, if I couldn't get him to take this, you don't think I'm gonna make him swallow one of those great big knock-out pills, do you?" "Knock-out pills." "Dukey, what's the matter with you?" "We are gonna use one of those dart rifles like Daktari." "Pfft!" "And the lion goes... (SNORES)" " Oh." " That's what it is, you know." "He's got one of those rifles in his truck." "Come on." "Come on." "Let's get to work." "Oh." "Oh, Clary baby, Clary baby." "You stay here and we'll be right back." "Now, here is your..." "Here is your bone." "Now, come on." "Now, you look in the back of the truck." "Yes." "There's nothing back here!" "Did you find anything?" "Yeah, a walkie-talkie." " Oh, what good is that?" " Well, listen." "This is a personal property." "It will add another year to our sentences." "Oh, for heaven's..." " Clarence is gone!" " Clarence is gone?" "Listen, don't tell me some kook went behind our back and stole our Clarence." "Come on." "Oh." "Some cat burglar took our cat." "(GROWLS)" "(GASPS) Come on!" " Clary, baby." " Oh, Clary." "Beautiful!" " I'll be right back." " Where are you going?" "I forgot Clarence's lunch." " Come on." "Come on." " There you go, baby." "(TRUMPETING)" " (ROARING) - (GROWLING)" "Judy's up to her shenanigans again." " Where's Clarence?" " He's gone." "I can tell you why." "Oh, great." "The dog's gone too." "Well, maybe she went for a run." "And Clarence probably followed to protect her." "How'd she get out of her cage in the first place?" "We'll worry about that later, Jack." "You'd better get Hedley on the walkie-talkie and alert him." " All right." " (SIGHS) Oh, brother." "If this doesn't curl his moustache, I don't know what will." "(CHITTERS)" "(HOOTS)" "(HOOTING) Judy, have you seen Dawn?" "I know." "I guess we all slept through it." "Wameru calling District Office." "Wameru calling District Office." "Come in, Hedley." "Wameru, District Office." "Sergeant Makumba speaking." "This is Jack Dane at Wameru." "I wanna talk to Officer Hedley." " But he's asleep." " Wake him up." "It's urgent." "Yes, sir." " Officer Hedley." " (HEDLEY YAWNING):" "What is it?" "You're wanted on the radio." "They say it's urgent." "All right, Sergeant." "I'll be right along." "(YAWNS)" "Officer Hedley here." "Over." "Uh, it's Jack, Hedley." "Uh, the governor's dog is gone." "It must have happened a couple of minutes ago." "Jack, will you all start tracking at once?" "That dog must be found alive and returned to the governor no matter what the cost." "Well, sure, Hedley." "Look, could you send a couple of your men to help us?" "Yes, and I'll have them alert the chiefs of all the villages." "Village chiefs?" "You think they're gonna go after a dog?" "They will, when they know I'm gonna post a reward of 100 pounds." "That ought to do the trick." "I'm sure the governor will be prepared to pay that amount." "A hundred pounds is a lot of money, Hedley." "I know, but it's worth it to the governor to get that dog back alive and safe." "Well, what are you staring at, Sergeant?" "Haven't you ever seen a moustache cap before?" "Keeps the curl in it, you know." " Here you are, Chip." " Oh, thanks." "Clarence, old boy, we found you a nice place to sleep for tonight." " Yeah." " Ok, chum?" "You'll get plenty of shuteye, and you'll be back with your folks in the morning." "Hmm?" "Sleep tight." "Sleep tight." "And listen, there is nothing out there to harm you." "Clarence, we'll protect you." " (GROWLS)" " Don't worry." "We are here." "Mm-hm." "Come on, chummy." "Come on." "You know, Duke, we're all set." "All we have to do is tip off Hedley, and we're back in jail." "Jail." "Oh, beautiful jail." "I can see it all now." "Those prison walls slowly closing in." "Guards, security, iron bars." "And that wonderful jail kitchen." "(LAUGHS)" "Home sweet home." "Here, Dawn!" "Here, Dawn!" "Dawn!" "Here, Dawn!" "Listen, I think maybe we better split up." "Why don't you two head along the river, and Paula and I will go up towards Lake Tanu, and I'll meet you back here in about, uh, half an hour." " All right?" " Right." "Judy, you have to come with Dad and me." " No, Judy." " Oh, let her go." "Now, look, Judy, now if you find Dawn, just attach this to her collar, all right?" "And you won't get lost now, will ya?" "(CHATTERS)" "And if you find Clarence, tell him to come home." "(CHATTERING)" "Come on." "Sergeant." " Any news?" " None whatsoever, sir." " Has the governor called yet?" " No, sir." "Thank goodness for that." "There'll be the devil to pay if he finds out we still haven't recovered the most valuable animal in the territory." "There is a possibility he just didn't wander away from Wameru." "If that's the case, whoever stole that animal is gonna pay the maximum penalty." "The governor will show no mercy." "See?" "I told you." "Everybody loves Clarence." "Yeah, even the governor." "Let's take a look at the map, Sergeant." "Should we go in now and confess?" "No, no, Dukey, that'll be too easy." "He's got to think he's up against a couple of desperate characters, and he's got to believe that he's the one who solved the crime by himself." "You see?" "Now, give me the spear." "Thank you." "Dukey, please give me elbow room." "Now, this area here" "Stay here, Sergeant." "They got away, the blighters." " Sergeant, what do you make of this?" " Wamambi tribal war spear." "But this piece of tree bark on the shaft, thorn tree, right?" "Yes, it's a young one." "Now, note the charred condition of the wood." "Singed by a fire not too long ago." "Now, where is a group of young thorn trees recently exposed to fire?" " Lake Tanu!" " Correct!" "I suggest we head for the lake at once." "Yes, sir." "Oh, shall we contact Daktari?" "Sergeant, if there is danger, it's we men in uniform who must face it." "Head on." " Yes, sir." " Good man." "Good." "And bring the necessary equipment for the corporal." "Yes, sir." "Now, let's see." "Mm-hm." " Dukey?" " Yeah?" "Our merchandise is still on the shelf." "Yeah, that's where I like it." "Oh, pretty soon we'll be back in that beautiful jail, with that wonderful kitchen." "(CHIP):" "I can't wait to see Hedley's face when he will learn that we are Clarence's kidnappers." "Listen, he'll really blow his top." "Yeah, sure, life." "Do you think we'll really get life?" "(CHIP):" "Well, you heard him." "The governor will be burnt up." " Yeah." " Hey, listen." "A car." "Ooh, that didn't take him very long, did it?" "Come on." "We're sleeping." "We're sleeping." "On your feet!" "Duke." "Chip." "Officer Hedley, what are you doing here?" "On your feet, men." "You're in deadly peril." "Where are they?" "They?" "There is only one." "By that tree, on the other end of the rope." "Come with me, Sergeant." "Come out, you blighter, with your hands up." " (BARKING)" " Dawn!" "Oh, Dawn, I'm so happy to see you." "How did she get there?" " Shh!" " But, I mean, she" "Put your guns down, men." "Gentlemen, please report to my office tomorrow morning." " Officer Hedley." " Yes?" "Aren't you gonna thank them for finding the governor's dog?" "In the morning, in my office, when I give them their reward money." "I couldn't congratulate them in your presence." "They're too modest." "It would only embarrass them." "But I will call Daktari and tell him to call off the search." "Hedley calling Wameru." "Hedley calling Wameru." "Come in, Daktari." "Come in, Daktari." "We made it, we made it." "Dukey, we made it." "You know, I don't know where that dog came from, but he certainly is our good luck mascot." "Yeah." "He's gonna open wide those jail doors for us." "Why didn't he arrest us?" "I don't know." "Maybe he want to give us the last taste of freedom." "Oh." "Yeah." "But tomorrow morning when we'll report to him, we'll get life!" "(HOOTING)" "Duke, Duke." "Try not to look too happy." "Ok." "Good morning, chaps." "Uh, good morning, Officer Hedley." "Here we are, Officer, reporting as ordered." "Awfully decent of you to drop by." "You had your breakfast yet?" " Well, as a matter of fact" " Hey, Duke." "Officer Hedley, do your duty." "Arrest us." "Oh, do put your hands down, chaps." "But we're just common thieves." "Aren't you gonna arrest us?" "Arrest you for finding the governor's pet dog?" "Of course not." "Ay, ay, ay, ay!" "You... put handcuffs on us!" "But there's no evidence against you, old chap." "No ransom note." "You stayed in this area instead of fleeing across the border as you could have." "No, chaps, you did a noble deed in protecting that precious animal from the predators of the bush." "Not to mention the Wamambi tribe." "We couldn't find their trail." "Did you see where they went?" "There weren't any." "There weren't any." "There weren't any." "Oh, just like you scallywags." "Always protecting the underdogs." " No, no, no, no, no!" " But never fear, we'll find them." "Now, wait a minute." "Wait a minute, Officer Hedley." "Didn't you bring us here to arrest us?" "Of course not." "I'm gonna reward you." "One hundred pounds." "What?" "What?" "One..." "One hundred pounds?" "Officer Hedley, wait a moment." "We got a sporting proposition, Duke and I." "Yeah." "We do?" "You know what?" "Tell him." "Yeah, yeah, I'll tell him." "Listen, you come here." "Officer Hedley, we'll make a proposition to you like this." "You keep the money, and we will go back to jail." " Hmm?" " Hmm?" "Chaps, this is quite impossible." "Now, I'm gonna give you your money, and I want no more nonsense about it." "Officer Hedley, Officer..." "Are you having trouble?" "Do you need any help?" "(HEDLEY):" "No, no, no, thanks." "I'll get it." "Um, 18 to the right, 24 to the left, 5 to the right." "Well, blast it." "Why won't it open?" "Well, maybe you have a wrong combination." "Why don't you look in the file?" "Yes, a good idea." "Sergeant, have you got the card with the combination on it?" "You have it, sir." "Really?" "Well, what did I do with it?" " You locked it in the safe." " (CHUCKLES)" "Oh." "Yes." "Well, that does pose a problem." "Not really, sir." "I have a duplicate of it in my desk." "Would you like it, sir?" "No, no, just read it out." "8 to the right, 4 to the left," "5 to the right." "Sorry for the delay, chaps." "I'll have the money for you in no time." "Aha." "Oh." "Uh, Sergeant, this, uh, tax collection box is still here." "I thought the armored truck was gonna pick it up yesterday afternoon." "It was delayed, sir." " It'll be here tomorrow." " Very well." "I shan't be a moment now, chaps." " Here we go." " (PAPER RUSTLING)" "There we are." "There you are, chaps." "And thank you again for finding the governor's dog." "Officer Hedley, isn't there a chance of reconsidering?" "Not a hope." "And now that you have a goodly sum," "I suggest you look around for some business, some place where you can make an honest living." "Honest living?" "Officer Hedley, you don't know what you're saying." "Away you go, chaps." "Of all the rough luck." "It's almost like being insulted." " (HOOTING)" " Hi, Judy." "Oh, hi, champion." "Judy, did you ever try doing business with that Hedley in there?" "(HOOTS)" "Very uncooperative." "A real square." "Look, Chip, we gotta figure a way to get ourselves arrested." "Yeah." "We got to think of something." " I got it." "I got it." "I got it." " Yeah?" "You know what will make Hedley really blow his top?" " No." " Listen." "We'll return here after dark, knock over the cracker box of a safe inside, and make off with the tax money." " (DUKE):" "Yeah." " (HOOTING)" "Oh, but, Judy, it's the only way." "See, we'll tip off Hedley's men, and then they'll come and capture us." "Judy, they'll throw the book at us." " Yeah." " (HOOTING)" "Oh, yes, yes, yes, Judy." "And then we'll get 30 years to life, in that wonderful, beautiful country club of a jail." "(HOOTING)" "Judy, kid, you don't understand." "Now, look, Duke, we've got things to do." "First of all, we've got to find ourselves a new campsite." "Then go to town, pick up some tools, and then return here after dark." "There's only one thing you have to figure out." "How to get rid of Hedley's sergeant so the coast will be clear." "Oh..." "I got it." "I got it." "I got." "(CHITTERING)" "(DUKE IMITATING HEDLEY):" "Hedley calling Sergeant Makumba." "Hedley calling sergeant Makumba." "Wameru District Office." "Sergeant Makumba here." "(DUKE):" "Hedley calling, Sergeant Makumba." "Do you read me?" "Oh, perfectly, sir." "It's like being next door." " Yes, jolly good reception, eh?" " Yes, sir." "Sergeant, I'm afraid I'm in a bit of a pickle, and you simply must help me out." " Yes, sir." " I'm at the Katanga village, and I can't get my car started." "I seem to be out of petrol." "Would you be a good fellow, and run me down a tin or so?" " But leave at once." " Yes, sir." "No, no, wait, Dukey." " Give him a chance to leave." " Oh, yeah." "Thanks." "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10." "Now?" "Now." "Come on." "(ENGINE STARTS)" "Come on." "Watch it." "Watch it." " Ok?" " Yes." "Come on." "That's my boy." "That's my boy." "Come on." "Aah." "Ooh." "1 second." "Oh, no." "It's all right." "Don't... turn on the light!" "Well, don't you remember?" "We want to be caught." "Oh." "I keep forgetting." "There's our baby." "There is our baby." "Eh, come on, Dukey." " (HUMMING)" " Here you are, Chip." "Thank you." "(HUMMING)" "Watch it." "My little baby." "A 38 to the right." "Click." "42 to the left." "Click." "And 15 to the right." "Click." "(HUMMING)" " Chip..." " Hmm?" "You sure you got the right numbers?" "No." "No." "Didn't you write 'em down?" "No, Chip." "Well, then, we'll have to work over her with tools." " Tools." " Come on." "Let's get 'em out of the truck." "(MAKUMBA): 8 to the right, 4 to the left," "5 to the right." "All right, you stupid safe." "I'll open you if I have to break you to pieces." "Here." "(GROANING)" "Hey, what do you know?" "One kick!" "Yeah." "You sure do get a boot out of your work." "(CHIP HUMMING)" "Hey, no, no..." "No, no." "Dukey, no, no." "Leave those tools alone, because they got our fingerprints on them." "Oh." "That means they'll help to convict us, then, huh?" " Ok, now, ink your fingers." " What for?" "What for?" "This is what for." " And this is what for." " This is what for." "And this is what for." "And this is what for." "And this is what for." "That's right." "So you know what this is?" " No." " This is a special file." "A hot file of all the recently released convicts." "Our fingerprints are right in there." "That means that Hedley can match our fingerprints from all over here against those in the file, and we are convicted." "Dukey, you're right." "Listen, with all the evidence against us, Hedley's got to arrest us." "And the public prosecutor's got an open and shut case against us." "And the magistrate will have to throw the book at us." "Ah, Chip, you've done it again." "Our future is secure." "(CHIP LAUGHING)" "Come on, Dukey." "Come on." "(CHITTERING)" "(CAR DRIVING OFF)" "(CHIP):" "Our fingerprints are right in there." " (MARSH):" "Hello, Hedley." " Hello, Marsh, Paula." " I see you brought Dawn along." " Yeah, she's feeling fine." "By the way, where's Judy?" "She's, uh, usually around when it comes to a ride." "Uh, she's sleeping in the back of the truck." "You know, uh, frankly, I'm a little worried about Judy." "She's been awfully tired lately." "Well, maybe she could do with a little nourishment." "Judy." "Judy!" "Wake up and come inside." "Why don't you all come in and have a spot of tea and biscuits?" "And as for you, Dawn, maybe we can dig up a dog biscuit." "Meanwhile, you stay out here and enjoy the fresh air." "Here, want to give her to me?" "I'll tie him up." "(PAULA):" "Come on, Judy." "My word, appalling!" "Of all the cheek." "Sergeant Makumba!" "Sergeant, where are you?" "What's the matter, Hedley?" "Well, the tax collection box has gone, and so has my sergeant." "Come on now, Hedley." "Surely you don't think that your sergeant would have" "Well, what am I to think?" "Well, anyway, he didn't get away with it all." "He left this roll of bills." "Hmm." "Hey, Hedley." "Your sergeant checked out on his duty board last night." "Says he went to Katanga village to take officer Hedley some petrol." "10:35 p.m." "But I was nowhere near Katanga village last night." "Well, then, obviously someone sent your sergeant a false message to lure him away from the office while they looted the safe." "Mm-hm." "Well, anyway, they may have got away with the collection box, but they won't get away with the crime." "They botched this job properly." "Fingerprints all over the place." "Well, this case is as good as solved." "Well, how can you be sure you can locate the person who left these fingerprints?" "Because only a professional criminal would undertake a daring robbery like this." "And it so happens that I've kept a file of all convicts released during the last five years who are still at large." "Oh, well, then all you have to do is match these fingerprints against those you have on file, and you've got your criminal, eh?" "Yes." "It's as simple as that." "And it's all in this magic box." "Good heavens, it's gone too." " The box?" " This is terrible." "Years of detective work gone down the drain." "Well, Hedley, what if you offered a reward like you did for the governor's dog?" "That's a splendid idea." "I'll offer another 100 pounds, no questions asked." "That should bring results again." "Look, Hedley, may I suggest that we kind of look around the area?" "Maybe the criminal dropped the box or something." "Yes, that's a good idea, but I doubt we'll find it." "Whoever undertook this crime must be a very clever master criminal." "Come on." "Let's get cracking." "Mmm." "Dukey..." "Dukey, you haven't lost your touch." "Yeah." "You know, you're still the best chef in the territory." "Thank you." "But eating on the outside with all these flies is absolutely awful." "Oh." "Oh, how I wish we were back in our mess hall." "Yeah, but, how are you gonna get us back in jail?" "How?" "It's a cinch." "I'll tell you the routine." "We'll take this hot dough..." "And into the cold storage." "The hole we dug out." "By now, Officer Hedley must have found the safe open, and the money gone." "So, it's time to get him roaring over here with his handcuffs." "Dukey, Dukey, listen." "You know the chief of the N'Goga tribe?" " Yeah." " He owes you a favor, doesn't he?" "Yes." "I let him have my secret recipe for barbecued goat." "Oh, he flipped." "They're using it at the next drum festival, you know." "Ok, then he can have his drummers send a little jungle telegram for us, the one Hedley will have to hear." "Right?" "Yeah." "Come on." "Let's go." "(HOOTING)" "And I'm sorry I couldn't get here sooner, sir." "From your explanation, Sergeant, we're obviously dealing with a diabolically clever gang." " Oh, yes." " Well, Marsh, did you find anything?" "No, not a thing." "Uh, Paula?" " Paula, did you see anything?" " Nothing." " (DISTANT DRUMMING)" " Sergeant, listen." "Those drums." "Can you read them?" "Well, Sergeant, can you make anything of them?" "They talk about a magic box that a man of the law seeks." "That's probably you, sir." "Wait." "But it is in possession of thieves." "Magic box, the fingerprint file, of course." " That's it." " Any mention of the location?" "Kalee waterhole 200 steps toward the sunset." "That's 200 yards to the west." "Sergeant, get the equipment." "Thank goodness we know where it is." "I'm gonna raid the thieves' camp straight away." "Hedley, do you need an extra man?" "You want me to come along?" "Thank you, Marsh, but this is a police job." "You and Paula stay and take good care of Dawn." "To the Kalee waterhole, and quickly." "Dukey, this marmalade is the greatest." " Yeah." " Now, tell me, how did you do it?" "It's a secret." "It's got wild pineapple in it." " (GASPS)" " What's the matter?" "My biscuits?" " No, it's a car." " A car." "Thank goodness." "I thought it was my biscuits." "(DRUMS CONTINUING)" " Put your bandolier on, Sergeant." " Yes, sir." "Now, the culprits will be straight ahead." "Move cautiously, Sergeant." "We don't want any casualties." "Here they come." "Uh, Dukey, will you pass me some more marmalade?" "Certainly." "Thank you." " You hear, Sergeant?" " Yeah." "Criminal overconfidence:" "it's our greatest ally." " Ready, Sergeant?" "Attack!" " Yeah." "Don't move!" "Duke, Chip, what on earth are you doing here?" "The bush over there." "Cover them, Sergeant, while I investigate." "Oh!" "The missing fingerprint file!" " It cannot be!" " The money's supposed to be there." "Chip, Duke, you chaps are true marvels." "By Jove, you have such a natural flair for detective work that I ought to deputize you." "I don't wanna be a deputy." "I just wanna be a cook." "Here, have one of my biscuits." " Oh." " Try some of my marmalade." "Ah." "Thank you." " (HEDLEY):" "Mmm." " I made it myself." "It's marvelous, absolutely marvelous." "You couldn't get better at the Savoy." "Now, listen, Hedley, you can't do this to us." "We are guilty." "We stole the tax money box." "I do not know how the fingerprint file got in that hole, do I?" "No, no, no, no." "Of course not, you clever rascals, but if you stole the tax collection box, where is it?" "I don't know." "You sure fixed us up good." "What I know is that you're entitled to another 100 pounds reward." "So come along, like good chaps, and collect it." "Officer Hedley." "Officer Hedley, now please believe me." "We're a couple of no-good crooks." "We stole the money, but some double-crossing rat-fink pig stole it from us." "(HEDLEY CHUCKLING) Yes, yes." "Yes, yes!" "You!" "You!" "(CAR APPROACHES)" "But, look, Officer Hedley, look." "We stole the money." "Believe us." "If you would just check our fingerprints against the file, and you'll find we're guilty." "Yes, yes, dear boys, but first, the reward money." "Officer Hedley, you're making a terrible mistake." "Terrible." "I don't want any more of that nonsense." "Oh!" "The tax collection box." "It was in the back of the file all the time, and I didn't see it." "There you are, you see?" "You are innocent." "Just as I always maintained." "Aren't you going to check our fingerprints?" "(HEDLEY):" "Of course not." "Looking back on it, all those mysterious radio calls, the stealing of the dog, the lifting of the fingerprint file, could all be the work of a practical joker." "Do you have any idea who that joker might be?" "A joker?" "Yeah." "I have a pretty good idea." "You want to know who that joker was?" " Yes." " I'll tell you." "Some monkey called Mr. X. The unknown suspect." "(HEDLEY):" "Yes, I suppose you're right." "I imagine this wild episode will go down as one of the great unsolved mysteries of the African bush." "Well, well, well." "Hello, Duke, Chip." "Hedley was just telling us that you've opened a restaurant in Nagoro." " Is that right?" " Yes, yes." "We're called the Jailbird Inn." "Yeah." "Thanks to Hedley's reward money, we were able to buy the old jail building and open for business." "What a beautiful car." "Oh, yes, my." "It looks as if you're doing rather well." "Yes, yes, uh, it is a in joint, a sort of a class joint for the tourists." "Yeah, everybody likes to eat behind bars." "(CHITTERING)" "Oh, excuse me just one minute, please." "I have a surprise." "For my friend, Judy." "Chip, would you hold that?" " Oh, ho." " Oh." "As a token of our friendship." "Hey, now, Judy, don't be so selfish." "Let Toto have some." "Oh, Miss Tracy, please." "Don't chew out our pal Judy." "Yeah, believe me, without Judy, none of this would have been possible." "All right, you just wait one minute." "I've got something for you too." "And that..." "And this is for being a good little girl." "There you go." "Yes, for you!" " For you, yes." " (GROWLS)" " For you." "Yes." " (LAUGHTER)" "♪ (THEME MUSIC PLAYS) ♪" "(English US" " SDH)"
