"[GRUNTING]" "JACK:" "Well, time to face the big, wide world." "Oh, they look so scared." "Well, I guess that's one of the drawbacks of being born in captivity." "Okay, let's go." "Wait a minute." "I have some sugar." "Sort of a farewell gift." " Okay." " Come on, baby." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on, baby." "Come on." "JACK:" "Ha, ha." " Judy, that's not for you." "Come on, baby." "Come on, now." "Well, looks like you can't buy love, huh?" "Back off and we'll open it up." "PAULA:" "Okay, Judy." "Well, go ahead now." "Oh, they look lost already." "I don't think I'd worry about them too much." "They need shelter, they can just crawl under a bush." "They need food, they just lower their noses and chew." "They're gonna do just fine." "Come on." "[ENGINE REVVING]" "JACK:" "Oh, boy." "Need I tell you we don't have a shovel?" "Try and rock her out." "Okay, Judy, come on." "I don't think that's gonna work." "No." "[SIGHS]" "Well, I'll get something to shove under the wheel." "[JUDY CHATTERING]" "Any of those reserve animals start nibbling in our fields they'll find the price of a meal very high, huh, Prince?" "[GROWLS]" "What do you say, boy?" "[PRINCE BARKS]" "All right, Prince, looks like we've set another snare right over" "Wait a minute, boy." "[GROWLING]" "Looks like we've got a couple of customers already." "Only we're not gonna wait for them to step into a snare." "Go get them, boy." "[BARKING]" "Thattaboy, Prince." "Thattaboy." "Thattaboy." "You've learned your lesson." "Well, shall we try again?" "[JUDY SCREECHING]" " Come on, Judy." " Hop in." "Jack, look." "They look frightened." "Yeah, they do." "Let's go see what scared them." "Jack." "Over there." "[BARKING]" "[PRINCE WHIMPERING]" "All right." "Stay back." "Easy, boy." "We'll have you out of there in a minute." "Jack, be careful." "[GROWLING]" "Jack!" "JACK:" "No, he won't let me get close to him." "I better tranquilize him." "How much are you gonna give him?" "Just enough to knock him out." "Okay." "Give me a hand." " Help me pull it down." " Right." "Is he all right?" "He seems to be." "We better take him back to the center and let Dad take a look at him." "Well, I don't know where he comes from." "If he has any owner." "I guess that's the best thing to do." "Oh, Prince?" "Hey, Prince." "All right, boy." "[MONKEY CHATTERING]" "Hey, Prince." "Okay." "I'll stay back here with him." "Hey." "Hey, wait." "No use, Marsh." "Just not hungry." "She's gotta have nourishment." "I thought by taking her out, it would help, but" "You wanted to see if an Indian tiger could adapt to African environment." "Now you know they can't." "If she doesn't come around soon, she's gonna die and take her unborn cubs with her." "[VEHICLE APPROACHING]" "Dad, come here." "JACK:" "Watch it, Judy." "MARSH:" "What happened?" " Where did you get the Shepherd?" " Found him hanging in a net in the bush." "MARSH:" "Here." "JACK:" "There we are." "See if you can get him up there on the porch." "We think he was chasing those fawns we let go and just got himself caught." "We brought him back here so you could check him over." "MARSH:" "Good." "Why don't we have a look?" "Okay, put him right down here." "Yep." "There we go." "Dad, we had to tranquilize him." "He wouldn't let Jack get near him." "Good thing he didn't get near the fawns." "Even tranquilized, he looks mean." "He seems to be all right." "Any idea where he came from or who he belongs to?" "Beats me." "[OSCAR GROWLING]" "Hey, look who's here." "Come here, Oscar." "MARSH:" "Oh, boy." "Mike, would you take Oscar and put him in his cage?" "Here we go." "Thank you." "Dad, it's him." "Him who?" " It's Prince, Dad." "MARSH:" "What are you talking about?" "Oh, don't you remember the two Frenchmen?" "The diamond smugglers?" "When Hedley arrested them, he said he'd try and find a home for their dog." "Maybe some farmers in the area." "Oh, this can't be Prince." "Prince was a gentle dog." "It's the same one." "It's Prince." "Well, it's possible." "Uh...." "They're both about the same size." "If this is Prince, I'd like to know what happened to him." "Look at that." "MARSH:" "Yeah, somebody's put the whip to him." "No wonder he's different." "Well, who could treat an animal that way?" "I don't know." "Easy, boy." "Oh, Prince." "Prince, we're only trying to help you." "[WHINING]" "I don't know why Dad put Prince in a cage." "Well, because he's still wild." "But the tiger he doesn't put in a cage." "She's not wild enough." "It's odd, but we've got a tiger who acts like a dog and a dog who acts like a tiger." "Judy, come back here." "You're supposed to be a vegetarian." "[MIKE SIGHS]" "Scalpel." "Sure?" "Don't think you'll cut too deep, do you?" "I don't think so, Marsh." "Ah." "There." "She should be fine now." "Well, good work, Mike." "These things baffle me." "As far as I'm concerned..." " ...you're an electronic genius." " Oh, thank you, Marsh." "I wish I could make a scientific breakthrough with her." "[PRINCE BARKING]" "[GRUNTING]" "Jack, really, isn't that carrying things a little too far?" "JACK:" "Yeah, I suppose so." "I'll have to ask your dad how far this affection training really goes, huh?" "Jack, look." "Dad, the tiger." "[PRINCE BARKING AND TIGER GROWLING]" "Why doesn't he do something?" "Shall I get the net?" "Yeah, you'd better, just in case." "I'll try to get between them." "I don't think we're gonna need it." "Look." "I can't believe it." "Those two have made friends." "Well, lots of cats and dogs play together." "I guess Judy knew that." "Make one friend, second comes easy." "Hail our social director." "[CLARENCE GROWLS]" "Oh, quiet, Clarence." "You'll get yours later." "Let's see if our two friends will break bread together." " Dad." " It's worth a try." "Judy, come here." "Yeah." "With Prince around, she just might come out of it." "Okay, Judy." "[VEHICLE APPROACHING]" "Hello, Diertle." "What are you doing with my dog?" "What have you got him so close..." " ...to that tiger for?" " They're friends." "Friends?" "Is Prince your dog?" "Has been ever since Hedley gave him to me." "Well, I didn't know that, Diertle, otherwise, I would've contacted you." "I wanna know why you brought him here." "He was caught in a net." "We didn't know who he belonged to, so we brought him to check him." "He looks all right to me." "Yes, he's all right." "Physically." "Good." "Then I'll take him home." "Come on, Prince." "[GROWLING]" "[GIBBERING]" "[PRINCE BARKING AND GROWLING]" "What's the matter with him?" "What have you done to him?" "What have you done to him?" "Paula." "What are you talking about?" "The whip marks on his back, for one thing." "Looks as if you're trying to turn him into a killer." "I've turned him into a good watchdog." "By beating him?" "I don't have to lay the whip to him anymore." "He does his job well." "And if your precious reserve animals start tearing up my farm Prince is right there to drive them off." "Come on, boy." "It doesn't look as if he's too anxious to go home with you, Mr. Diertle." "Come on, boy." "Go." "Prince." "Move." "Straighten up, boy." "Come on, boy, move." " Prince!" "Why--?" " Hold it." "I don't like to see animals abused, Diertle." "If you hadn't deliberately softened him up, that wouldn't be necessary." "You and your barnyard full of brotherly love." "Now, this is my dog and I'll treat him as I see fit." "Dad, do we have to let him take Prince?" "Well, as the man says, it's his dog." "But there's a limit." "Yes, there is." "And as soon as he crosses it I'll ask Hedley to take the dog away from him." "Well, I had a feeling an owner might show up." "We not only lost a dog we may have lost our tiger again." "[GROWLING]" "[TIRES SCREECH]" "[GROANING]" "[PRINCE BARKING]" "[SCREECHES]" "Judy, you've been gone for a long time." "What have you been up to?" "I don't think she'll eat without Prince, Marsh." "Well, all we can do is try." "[CHUCKLES]" "Just goes to show you how little I know about the nature of the beast." "Well, we better get on over to the clinic." "Thattaboy." "Alrighty." "There." "Okay." "There." " Hello, Hedley." " Marsh." "How are you?" "You know Mr. Diertle, of course." " We renewed acquaintances yesterday." " Yes." " Uh, that's what I've come to you about." " What's wrong?" "My dog is gone again and I think he's here." " That's what's wrong, doctor." " You're talking nonsense." " Do you think I'm lying?" " All right, gentlemen." " Let's keep this civilized." " Yes, by all means." "Have a cup of coffee and talk this over." " Fine." "I haven't had" " I'm not interested in a cup of coffee." "I wanna get my dog and go home." "What makes you think your dog is here?" "Well, as a matter of fact, Marsh, when Mr. Diertle left here yesterday he suffered a slight mishap on the road." "His jeep ran into a pile of debris." "He was pitched forward onto the steering wheel and when he came round, the dog was gone." "I'm sorry about your accident, Diertle but, uh, your dog didn't come here." "Then you won't mind if the inspector looks around a bit." "I mind my word being doubted." "Ha, ha, I, for one, am not doubting your word for a moment, Marsh but, uh, just to please Mr. Diertle." "Well, of course." "Look all you want." "Well, will you join me in this, uh, inquisition, Mr. Diertle?" "The sooner the better." "Judy." "Bring Oscar back." "PAULA:" "Hey, here's Hedley." "MIKE:" "Hi." "What are you doing here?" "Mr. Diertle is looking for his dog." "Seen him?" "No." "Well, not since he dragged him away yesterday." "PAULA:" "Hedley, it's the way he treats that dog." "Excuse me, Paula, but I must stay with him." "[GROWLING]" "Have you found him yet, Mr. Diertle?" "[GROWLING]" "He doesn't seem to be here either." "[OSCAR GROWLING]" "Did you have a nice tour, Mr. Diertle?" "Well, Mr. Diertle, there doesn't seem to be any sign of your dog." "He's in there." "HEDLEY:" "I beg your pardon?" " That box behind the tiger." "Mr. Diertle, I seriously doubt that any dog would come within shouting distance of that tiger." "Then you're wrong." "He was sitting right next to that tiger when I came here before." "Get him out." "What do you mean?" "Pretty clever, doctor." "But you don't fool me." "Mr. Diertle seems to think that his dog is in the tiger box." "Diertle, you're seeing things." "Come on, Prince." "Prince, come on." "Are you satisfied?" " I wanna see inside that box." " Well, go and look in the box." "You call him." "He's not there." "Oh, call him." "Just to satisfy the man and end this silly business." "Prince?" "Prince, if you're in there, come on out." "Prince?" "[PRINCE BARKS]" "Well, inspector?" "Hedley, uh, I'm amazed." "I had no idea that" "Inspector, your jolly little group are probably responsible for nearly wrecking my Jeep and giving me this." "Hedley, I" "I don't know how to explain this." "Wait a minute." "Wait a minute." "Judy." "Judy?" "Do you think she could have been responsible for this?" "She looks guilty enough." "Oh, inspector." "Are you gonna let him carry on with this?" "Blaming a monkey for stealing a man's dog and nearly cracking his skull?" "At this point, I don't know what to think." "I want them all arrested." "If you want to file a formal charge, you'll have to have proof." "What more proof do you need?" "Far more than you've got." "It's reasonable to assume the dog came back on his own without help." "DIERTLE:" "Prince would never disobey me." "Mr. Diertle, you have your dog again why don't you just take him and go home?" " I demand" " You're not in a position to demand anything." "Marsh." "Hedley, so help me, we didn't do it." "I certainly know you well enough to believe what you tell me." "If you say Judy could've stolen the dog and hidden him in the tiger's box" "And what the devil is a German Shepherd doing palling up with an Indian tiger anyway?" "Well, so far, Prince is the only one who's been able to" "Well, uh, communicate with her ever since she arrived." "HEDLEY:" "She does look pretty melancholy at that." "Yes, frankly, I'm worried." "Without Prince she may not live." "Well, be that as it may if I find that dog here again I may seriously have to consider putting you all behind bars." "He mistreats that dog, Hedley." "He's training him to be a killer." "You saw the way he wouldn't come out when he called him." "I don't know what's happened to Diertle." "He used to be such a nice, likable fellow." "Well, he's been getting more bitter and colder every year since his wife died." "Well, if he really is mistreating that dog sooner or later I'll catch him at it and I'll take the animal away." "Hedley, I thank you for your confidence." "Appreciate it." "Keep Judy out of my sight or I might have to arrest her." "Maybe you let yourself soften up a little too much while you were away." "But we'll soon fix that." "Now." "Attack, Prince." "[WHINING]" "Attack." "What's the matter with you, Prince?" "Attack." "[WHIMPERING]" "Attack, boy." "I'll fix you." "Here." "Here's some food." "Come and get it." "All right, boy." "Here." "Here." "Now, maybe if you get hungry enough you'll remember what you were taught." "Come on, stretch for it." "Make it hard." "Stretch." "Stretch." "Get mad." "Hey, what are you doing with that dog?" "[CLARENCE GROWLS]" "[PRINCE BARKING]" "Prince?" "Prince!" "Come back here!" "All right, dog you've had your chance." "Now you'll have to learn the hard way." "[PRINCE BARKS]" "MIKE:" "Not again." "MARSH:" "Again." "It's Prince." "It's trouble." "MARSH:" "Judy." "Why, Judy?" "How did you do it this time, huh?" "Dad, what's happened?" " How did Prince get back here?" " Our social director again." "Someone is glad to see Prince." "So, what do we do now?" "I think what we have to do is take Prince back to Diertle and turn Judy over to Hedley as incorrigible." "Don't you realize you could get us all arrested for kidnapping or--?" "Or dognapping or something?" "Well, we won't have to worry about taking Prince back." "Yeah." "[GROWLING]" "You people just couldn't leave well enough alone." "We didn't plan this." "I was gonna bring the dog back." "I'll bring him back myself." "I guess it's gonna take longer than I figured to straighten you out." "You're hurting him." "He'll be hurt a lot worse before I get through with him." "Diertle, look, the dog is upset." "Let him settle down?" "Then take him." "I don't want him to settle down, I want him upset." "Then he'll know that I mean what I say." "Can't you see all that dog needs is a little affection?" "Get out of my way, doctor." "Diertle, that dog is not a killer." "Not anymore." "That's why he keeps coming back here." "Your no-good chimp brought him back here." " Because he wanted to come back." " He's my dog." "I'm not saying he isn't." "But you can't own a dog with a whip." "You can't beat loyalty out of him." "Look, Diertle, just take a look at him." "He's afraid of you." "He doesn't even like you." "I don't want him to like me, I want him to obey me." "All you animal lovers." "This whole place, nothing but a foolish dream." "Animals are animals and men are men." "They're not brothers." "Diertle." "It's been four years since your wife died." "You've been alone too long." "You've forgotten what is worthwhile knowing about people and animals." "I know this." "I took him in, I fed him, I gave him shelter, and he turned on me." "You turned on yourself, and you've no one to blame but yourself." "Get in the car, Prince." "It's too late." "You're right, doctor." "It is too late." "What are you doing?" "The dog is ruined and I'm gonna dispose of it." " Ruined for what?" " Take your hands off that gun." "How blind can you be?" "Don't you see that dog just needs affection?" "He's tasted it and he likes it." "Are you so blind and bitter and empty inside that you can't see that for yourself?" "Step back, doctor." " Dad!" " Kill that dog, Diertle it will be like killing yourself." "Step aside, doctor." "I'm warning you." "You kill that dog and it's admitting that you're dead inside." "[WHINING]" "Maybe I am." "You don't have to be, Diertle." "We could be friends." "All of us." "We humans, and...." "And the rest around here." "Diertle?" "The dog is yours, doctor." "Do what you want with him." "Well, the dog can be yours again too." "The way it was meant to be." "Maybe I have been alone too long." "Maybe you're right about that." "Well, think on it a while, and-- Well, then, come on over and visit us." "You know, I fix a pretty mean cup of coffee." "Maybe I will." "[PRINCE BARKING]" "I almost feel sorry for him." "Oh, I don't think you have to." "In a little while, he's gonna be all right." "So is that misplaced tiger of yours." "[PRINCE BARKING]" " Marsh." " What brings you out so early in the morning?" "Matter of fact, I was on my way to Diertle's farm to check on how he was treating the dog." "Of course, you have an explanation as to why the animal is here." "Well, as a matter of fact, Diertle left him here." " Left him?" " Mm-hm." "Believe it or not there's still a little heart left in that sour old Dutchman after all." "You mean he actually gave up the dog to help the tiger?" "MARSH:" "Well, not exactly." " What's that?" "Oh, he'll probably be back for him." "When he gets lonely enough." "But at least it won't be with a whip in his hand." "Sort of trial separation, that is?" "Um, something like that." "Well, I suppose you've saved me a drive." "In that case, you'll have time for refreshment." "Fine." "Hmm." "If we humans could only get along half as well." "[English]"
