"(CHITTERING)" "Now, what's the matter, Judy?" "I don't see anything." "(GROWLING)" "Oh." "The lion scare you, did it?" "Go get Toto and come back here where I can watch you." "(CHITTERING)" "(GROWLING)" "(CHITTERING)" "All right now, Clarence." "Open your big, brown eyes." "That's a good boy." "Come on, Cyrano, drink your milk." "How you gonna grow up big and strong if you don't eat?" "(VEHICLE APPROACHING)" "DAKTARI:" "Well, look who's here." "Hello, Alf." " Anne, nice to see you." " We've got company." "I'll be back." "Now, unless you're sick, you'd better eat." "(GROWLING)" "Hello, Clarence." "Remember me?" "I just gave him an eye wash." "Things look a little better to you now, Clarence?" "(GROWLING)" "Jenny, I'd like to have you meet Mr. and Mrs. Benton." " Very pleased to meet you, Jenny." " Hello." " Hi." "I've seen you before." " ANNE:" "You have?" "You live on the cotton farm, down the road." "That's right." "Well, we're old friends." "How about going up on the porch, and having something cool to drink?" "I can't, I gotta feed Cyrano." "He won't drink his milk." "You think he's sick?" "Well, that's hard to say." "Does he have any other symptoms?" "No, I don't think so." "May I see if I can help?" "Certainly, if you'd like to." " Jenny?" " Okay." "Come on, Alf, let's look into that cold drink." "(HOOTING)" "He always drinks a whole bottle." " Do you always drink all your milk?" " No." "Oh. (LAUGHS) Could be he's had enough." "On the other hand, did you check the nipple?" " Sometimes it gets stopped up." " I didn't think about that." "Here." "Hold him." " Let's see...." " It is stopped up!" "Mm-hm." "Oh." "Oh!" "See how easy it is?" " I should have thought of that." " Next time you will." " You wanna feed him?" " May I?" "I've never had the pleasure of feeding a baby skunk who drinks milk." "Come on." "(LAUGHS)" "(LAUGHS)" "(SNORTING)" "(CHITTERING)" "Hey, Alf." " Good to see you." " How's Anne, huh?" "She's having the time of her life." "Looks as if Jenny's made a conquest." "I think Jenny's gonna be good medicine for Anne." "She's been a little upset lately." "Really?" "Any idea what's wrong?" "Mainly because our cheetah Kimba ran away." "I searched the bush around the farm, but the only hope I have now is that she's on your reserve." "Um, was she still wearing her collar?" " Yes." " Listen now, don't worry." "We'll keep a lookout for her, okay?" "(CHITTERING)" "DAKTARI:" "Judy, there's nothing under there." "Judy, what's the matter with you?" "How long's Kimba been gone?" "Nearly a week." "I'm afraid she's dead." "She was too domesticated to survive in the bush." "Well, of course, you can't be sure." "You happen to have one you want to sell?" "Now, come on." "Kimba was a trained hunter." " Are you capable of training one?" " I could try." "(LAUGHS) It's not easy." "Alf, you know I don't approve of your kind of hunting." "Perfectly honest with you, I'd do about anything I could" " to discourage it." " In other words, no cheetah." "Not for me." "You know where I could buy one?" "Well, I'm gonna tell you, Alf." "If I joined forces with a no-kill group, you're on your own." "(CHITTERING)" "Hi, Judy." "(LAUGHS) Hello, Judy." "Oh, that's quite a welcome." "I haven't seen you in months, and you still remember me." "(HOOTING)" "JENNY:" "Mrs. Benton!" " Would you like to meet Bobo?" " Hello, Bobo." "You're a lucky girl, Jenny, to have all these wonderful animals as friends." "Don't you have any?" "We had a cheetah, but she ran away." "You know, you're living the kind of life" "I used to tell my children stories about." " How many children do you have?" " They were my school children." "I used to teach second and third grade when I lived in America." " How long have you been here?" " About six months." "I married Mr. Benton when he came to America to visit his family." "Why'd you move?" "There's no school here to teach." "I know." "But I've always wanted to come here." "I used to read all those fascinating things about Africa." "You know, that you find in books, about animals like Cyrano and Bobo?" "(SCREECHING)" "(CHITTERING)" "(GROWLING)" "(SNARLING)" "(ROARING)" "When I grow up, I'm gonna be an animal doctor like Daktari." "Well, you'll have to go to school and study very hard." "I do." "Daktari and Paul teach me." "The inspector from Ngoro comes once a month to see how I'm doing." "Good." "If you ever need any more help, just let me know." " You mean it?" " Of course." "I love to teach." "Especially children who care for animals." "They need all the friends they can get." "Too many people like to hunt and kill them." "Not around here, they can't." "Well, that's the way it should be everywhere." "Not just at Wameru." "May I help?" "Sure." "Come on." "Here." "Come on." "Come on. (KISSING)" "(SCREECHING)" "(HOOTING)" "And if it's all right with you, Jenny and I have made a pact." "Jenny's going to teach me about animals, and I'm gonna teach her the three "arrs."" "(LAUGHS) Well, that sounds like a fair exchange." "When I go hunting weekends, maybe Jenny can come over" " and keep Anne company." " How about it, Jenny?" "(CHITTERING)" "That's Judy." "(GROWLING)" "(LAUGHS)" "Judy, wait a minute." "What do we got?" " (LAUGHS)" " It's a collar." "That's Kimba's." " Isn't it, darling?" " I...." "I think so." "She must be on the reserve somewhere." "Hey, Alf." "Let me see that." "Hey, Judy." "Hey." "Where did you get this?" "(CHITTERING)" "Toto?" "Judy, do you know where Toto got that collar?" "(CHITTERING)" "Well, we can go look for her, but without a collar," " I'm afraid it's" " We'd still like to know." "I'll stay with Jenny." "We'll be back as soon as we can." "Hey, Judy." "Come on, let's go." "I hope they find your cheetah alive, Mrs. Benton." "I hope so too, Jenny." "(ROARING)" "(SNARLING)" "So this is the spot where Toto found the collar, huh, Judy?" " (HOOTING)" " BART:" "She tried to show me something in this area a few days ago." "I thought it was the lion." "(HOOTING)" "Tire tracks." "Judy must have seen the car." "When I got here, it was gone." "What if someone didn't try to steal Kimba, decided better of it, put her out here." "That could explain the collar being off." "Alf, has Kimba ever hunted alone?" "No." "DAKTARI:" "Well, then if she's alive, she must be pretty hungry by now." "She's only been taught how to drive an animal toward you so you could shoot it." "So, until she develops her own instincts, she's going to have problems." "But she's lean and fast, so if she survives long enough to learn a few tricks, she should be all right." "Marsh, I'm not leaving without looking for her." "I didn't think you would." "If we had Anne, we could cover twice the ground." "Kimba answers her call or mine if she can hear it." "Look, I'll radio for her to join us." "Thanks." "Come on, Judy." "Marsh, has Judy ever seen Kimba before?" "I don't know." "Why?" "I'm trying to figure out how" "Judy knew that collar belonged to Alf and Anne." "Unless she saw somebody take it off Kimba." "Well, who knows?" "Anne had a funny look." "Don't jump to conclusions." " You already have." " Bart." "If Anne did let Kimba go, it's up to her to tell Alf, not you." "Okay, Marsh." "This is Bart calling Wameru." " Finished." " Oh, that was fast." " I'm good at arithmetic." " Oh, I think you can" " do meter work, don't you?" " I guess so." "Are they right?" " How much is six and seven?" " Thirteen." "You have 11 down here." "That's what happens when you're in a hurry." "I sometimes had to remind my children, haste makes waste." " Yes, ma'am." " Anne, Bart just radioed in." "He and dad have narrowed down the area where Kimba might be." "They think that you can be of some help to them," " so I'll drive you out there." " Of course." "Jenny, we'll have to continue this later." " Right now, Kimba needs me." " I see." "Anne, what will happen if a boy cheetah meets Kimba?" "Well, Jenny, I don't think it'd be very good for Kimba." "You see, Jenny, out in the bush, sometimes the male animal fights with the female." "It could be dangerous." "But let's hope it doesn't happen." "(ROARING)" "That's the way it looks, darling." "With any luck, we'll find her before day's over." "Well, at least you know whoever it was brought Kimba here" " didn't mean to harm her." " No." "But if I ever get my hands on him...." "Come on." "Well, my hunch is she'll probably look for water, and stay close to it." "Bart, why don't you take Anne down and cover the lower end of the lake and Alf and I will cover the upper end." "Okay, Anne, let's go." "I'm sorry we're putting you to so much trouble." "Now what are friends for?" "Oh, Alf, I'm carrying a dart rifle, so if there's any trouble, let me shoot first." "All right?" "Marsh, I wouldn't kill anything on your reserve." "Unless I had to." "(GROWLING)" "(VEHICLE APPROACHING)" "(GROWLING)" "You're using live ammunition." "When I take people on camera safaris, it's my job to protect them." " Oh." " Let's go." "ANNE:" "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "(SQUAWKING)" "Would she have had any trouble adapting to the bush?" "Sure." "When you first moved here, you had to learn a few things too." "Didn't you?" "You know, Anne, outsiders, whether in the human world or animal world, have gotta learn how to live with their new environment." "Because the environment won't change to suit them." "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "(GROWLING)" "ANNE:" "Kimba!" "(GROWLING)" "Kimba." "Kimba." "I can't." "I can't take you back home." "No." "Soon you'll learn how to live in the bush." "Be a good girl now." " Anne?" " Coming!" "Be a good girl now, Kimba." "Stay." "Stay, Kimba." "No!" "Stay!" "Stay!" "Anne!" "(SCREAMS)" " (BULLET RICOCHETS) - (GROWLING)" " Was that Kimba?" " Yes." "Why the scream?" "I thought you were in trouble." " No!" " Anne." " You wanted me to kill her." " How can you think that?" " Why not?" "You left her." " Not to die." "I shouted at her to stay." "I didn't know you were going to shoot." "I just gave her a good scare." "She probably isn't very far away." " If I leave, she'll come back to you." " I can't." "I won't have her in my house." "Bart, the day I let her go, she killed a fawn that got into our yard." "That's not the first time, either." "I can't even have a pet cat or dog with her around." "Ironic, isn't it?" "In the bush where it's natural for her to kill, she probably can't." "And in a fenced-in area like our yard, where she should be friendly, she kills." "Anne, she hasn't learned where or who yet." "Alf should keep her chained." "It's her nature to kill." "It also seems to be Alf's nature." "I thought I married a gentle person, who was bringing me to a place of beauty and peace." "I'm afraid your idea of life in Africa wasn't very realistic." "I'm not naive, Bart. I know what goes on." "It's just that I don't choose to live with it." "Then tell Alf and stop tearing yourself apart." "I don't know how." "Getting rid of Kimba was the first step." "I wouldn't wait much longer." "(ANIMAL GROWLING)" "(TRUMPETING)" "(SNORTING)" "Bart and Anne didn't have any better luck." "You mind if I come out and try it again tomorrow?" "No, not at all." "As a matter of fact, uh, why don't you bring Anne along?" "I was thinking it might not be a bad idea to teach Anne how to hunt so she wouldn't be left alone so much." "No chance." "She's strictly your kind of animal lover." "Oh." "Ever think of giving it up for her sake?" "She's not that sensitive." "I'd rather hunt than eat." "You know that." "I just thought you might consider her feelings." "Why don't you talk to her about it anyway?" "Marsh, that's the only thing we don't see eye-to-eye on." "Six months, maybe a year." "She'll learn to live with it." "(PURRING)" "No, Toto." "You were supposed to give the ball to Judy." "Now that's the third time." "(CHITTERING)" "I can't figure out what's going on between those two." "Toto acts as if Judy doesn't even exist." "It might be because Judy took the car away from Toto." "Toto, are you mad at Judy?" "(SCREECHING)" "PAULA:" "She was only trying to help." "(HOOTING)" "Judy, stop that!" "What you don't understand is you did do the right thing." "But Toto is too young to understand that." "(VEHICLE APPROACHING)" "No luck." " Oh, I'm sorry." " So am I, Mrs. Benton." "Thank you, Jenny." "(JUDY SCREECHING)" "Judy!" "She seems to be angry with you." "(CHITTERING)" "(VEHICLE APPROACHING)" "(CHITTERING)" "Goodbye, Mrs. Benton!" "See you tomorrow!" " She's nice." " Yes, she is." "But right now, Jenny, we're gonna have to punish Judy for her bad manners." "Would you get her for me?" " Okay." " Thank you." "What are you punishing Judy for?" "You didn't see her, but a few minutes ago, she was screaming at Anne something fierce." "Not without a reason." "You see, Paula...." " (HOOTING)" " Judy!" "Judy, come down here." "Paula wants you." "(CHITTERING)" "You just wait." "You're gonna get it." "(HOOTING)" "BART:" "It's a fact, Paula." "Anne admitted she let Kimba loose." "DAKTARI:" "Well, Paula, if you knew the circumstances" "But Dad, that's not important right now." "That cheetah's gonna die out there." "She looked all right this afternoon." "Yes, but nevertheless, Paula does have a point." "Why didn't you bring her in?" "BART:" "Because Anne wants her to stay lost." "(CHITTERING)" "We may be gone most of the day, darling." "If you get tired, take the Jeep." "Bart will bring me home." " Why don't you sit down, Anne?" " Oh, no, thank you." " Where's Jenny?" " She slept a little late." "So she's still having breakfast." "Uh, Anne Bart won't take Alf back to where you found Kimba yesterday." "I didn't mean to involve all of you." "Why not?" "We're fighting the same battle." "When I examined Kimba before Alf bought her, you asked me to talk him out of it." "Remember?" "Well, I tried." "But...." "So I guess I feel a little responsible." "Well, I shouldn't be so sensitive, but Kimba would come to me with blood on her coat from kills she made in the yard." "She trapped those poor little creatures." "I don't belong here, Marsh." "Oh, Anne...." "Now that Kimba's gone, maybe things will be a lot different" " and better for you." " Alf's thinking about getting another one." "I should have brought Kimba back yesterday and told him the truth." "Well...." "I sure wish there was something I could do, Anne." "I...." "Good morning, Jenny." "Finish those pages of arithmetic?" "No, and I'm not going to." " Jenny!" " She hates animals." "She tried to kill Kimba." "I don't want her to teach me anymore." "Oh, I'm sorry, Anne." "She must have overheard." "That's still no excuse for rudeness." "Will you excuse me a minute?" "Jennifer?" "I shouldn't have said that." "No, you shouldn't have." "I don't like her anymore." "What if Kimba dies like Paula said?" "Never mind what Paula said." "Kimba has a very good chance of staying alive on the reserve." "That's why Mrs. Benton put her there." "It's the safest place she could find." "Why'd she do it in the first place?" "I thought she liked animals." "Well, she does like animals." "And she likes little children too." "Very much." "Jenny." "Jenny, come here." "Come over here." "Come here." "Let's put Cyrano over there." "I'll tell you what." "Let's pretend something for a minute, okay?" "Let's pretend that you are in the farmyard of the Bentons." "And suddenly, a rogue lion jumps over the fence and starts after you." " What would you do?" " Run away." "Oh, yes, but suppose you couldn't run fast enough?" "And suppose Mrs. Benton was in the farmyard with you." "What do you think she would do?" " I guess she'd shoot the lion." " Why?" " To save me." " Alrighty." "Well, then let's pretend that instead of a rogue lion, a hunting cheetah jumps the fence." "And instead of you being in the farmyard, there are lots of little small animals like yours over here." "Do you think Mrs. Benton would shoot the cheetah?" "I guess so." "Well, honey, don't you think it would be better if she put the cheetah out in the bush so she wouldn't have to shoot it?" " Is Kimba a hunting cheetah?" " Yes, she is." "I didn't know." "Anne!" "You stay here with Cyrano." "Dad, I tried to stop her, but she insisted on looking for Kimba alone." "Get me the walkie-talkie." "No luck in there." "How many of these blinds have you built?" " About a dozen of them." " Pretty unexciting way to hunt." " With a camera." " (LAUGHS) Some people like it." "Bart, this is Marsh." "Do you read?" "Over." "Bart?" "This is Marsh." "Do you read?" "Over." "Go ahead, Marsh." "Listen, Bart. Anne's gone to find Kimba." "Pick me up at the crossroads." "Leaving right away, Marsh." "Out." "That's not like Anne." "How we gonna find her?" "Eh, come on." "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "(BLEATING)" "How'd you know she'd be here?" "Because we found Kimba in this area yesterday." "She wouldn't come to Anne?" "Anne wouldn't have her." "Alf, when you married Anne, you forgot to tell her that you like animals at the end of a rifle." "Are you saying Anne put Kimba in the bush?" "That's right." "BART:" "Come on, Alf, let's go." "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "Kimba!" "Kimba!" " Kimba!" " (PURRING)" "Come on, girl." "Nobody's gonna shoot at you now." "Come on, Kimba." "(PURRING)" "(GROWLING)" "(GROWLING)" "ANNE:" "Kimba!" "Don't let him attack me!" "(SNARLING)" "(SCREAMING)" "(ANNE SCREAMING)" "(GROWLING)" "(SCREAMING)" "(PANTING)" "(PURRING)" " How long's that stuff last?" " It's a light dose." "He'll be on his feet in a few minutes." "Here, Kimba." "Yeah." "Well, aside from a few scratches, she's in pretty good shape." "(GRUNTING)" " Call her, she'll get away." " That's what she wants." "That's what you want." "I'm sorry." "I've been very" "Well, how's it going, huh?" "I thought Mrs. Benton was coming to teach me." " Well, maybe she was detained." " She doesn't like me" " because I was mean." " (LAUGHS) Oh, no, no." "Not at all, honey." "No, she accepted your apology and she told me she'd be here." "She just didn't know exactly what time." " I want her to feel happy." " I'll bet she'll be a lot happier" " if you do your homework." " (HORN HONKS)" " Mrs. Benton!" "Mrs. Benton!" " Jenny!" "Oh!" "Hello, Anne." " Alf." " Marsh." " I need some help." " A dart rifle?" "You didn't expect him to quit hunting altogether, did you?" " Well, no, but I" " Anne and I have made a compromise." "I see sick animals hurt from one thing or another all the time." "You teach me how to use those tranquilizer darts, and maybe I can bring you some business." "(CHUCKLES) Alf, you got yourself a deal." "Well, Jenny, looks like I've joined the no-kill group." "All right?" " Gosh, Mr. Benton, I'll say." " And I can keep track of Kimba with this." "In fact, Alf's gonna help me shoot an animal photo album." "(JUDY HOOTING)" "(LAUGHING)" "You know something, Anne?" "I'd say you might have your first shot right over there." "(CHITTERING)" "(GIGGLING)" "♪ (THEME MUSIC PLAYS) ♪" "(English US" " SDH)"
