00:01:59Gene, I don't think we should stay here. There's trouble brewing.
00:02:02Oh, don't worry. Whenever the natives are nervous, they always hold a parade to take their minds off their troubles.
00:02:07I told you we shouldn't come here in the first place.
00:02:09No matter what happens, I will not leave till I find out what happened to Greg.
00:02:12I know how you feel, Gene. But the English and Americans are not very popular here just now.
00:02:16Oh, look, there's a hotel with Greg Stade.
00:02:29Good afternoon.
00:02:30Good afternoon.
00:02:30I don't know how long we're going to stay here. Colonel Jones and I are looking for someone.
00:02:38Um, perhaps, uh, you can help us.
00:02:42Yes, Miss Preston.
00:02:44A young man, an American about 25 years of age. Greg Jones, Colonel Jones' son.
00:02:50We know we left here on a safari about a month ago and didn't return.
00:02:55Madam, I wish I could be of some help. There are many safaris leave from here.
00:02:59Searching for a man in a country of this size, why, like looking for a needle in a haystack.
00:03:04Wayne, we've discussed this before, and we'll keep on searching until we find that needle.
00:03:10Notice that a two-native girl?
00:03:12Uh, yes. I thought she seemed particularly interested.
00:03:14Well, that's just what I was thinking.
00:03:23Room 207, 211, 214. On your left. Thank you.
00:03:35226.
00:03:40Yes?
00:03:41Sahib.
00:03:41There's a young lady at a party here, seeking Greg Jones.
00:03:47Detain the party.
00:03:57Come in.
00:04:02Well?
00:04:04I am Tondra.
00:04:06You are looking for a white man with lost safari?
00:04:09Why, yes, Tondra, I am.
00:04:11I'm looking for the man I'm engaged to marry, Greg Jones.
00:04:15Moyo told me of lost safari and lone white man.
00:04:19What?
00:04:20My husband was many safaris.
00:04:22Last time...
00:04:23I...
00:04:24I...

00:05:03I...
00:05:04I...
00:05:05It may not have been Greg's safari.
00:05:07Would you bring your husband here so I could question him?
00:05:09No, ma'am.
00:05:11Too much danger.
00:05:21Here.
00:05:23I think I can make it worth your while.
00:05:35The government is encouraging these sporting events because the people take such a keen interest in them.
00:05:59It's like baseball or football in our country.
00:06:02The tug of war is arranged between two full elephants and the natives bet high on the outcome.
00:06:07Friends like this are designed to keep their minds off of more troublesome hours.
00:06:15I can't understand why that young fool Wayne insists on going to the marketplace at a time like this with all this unrest.
00:06:21Why did Wayne have to go to the marketplace to rest?
00:06:25I didn't say rest. I said unrest.
00:06:28We'll keep messing around until he gets us all into trouble.
00:06:39Oh, come in.
00:06:45This is Moya.
00:06:46How do you do?
00:06:47He will be glad to tell you what he can.
00:06:49Perhaps you have a picture of the young man you are looking for.
00:06:52Why, yes, I have.
00:07:03He not in last safari.
00:07:05One before.
00:07:07They hunt elephant ivory.
00:07:09Big tusks.
00:07:10You know, so high.
00:07:11They first go to sea town, then go to Kaibo in Africa.
00:07:17Listen.
00:07:18I tell you.
00:07:24A native has just been killed in room 207.
00:07:28You will notify the police at once.
00:07:30Once, Shahid.
00:07:32Is Preston in a room?
00:07:33Yes, Shahid.
00:07:34Thanks.
00:07:38Well, it's a lucky thing.
00:07:39No one heard that shot.
00:07:42What happened here?
00:07:43I don't know.
00:07:44But with all this native unrest,
00:07:45if the police ever get wind of this,
00:07:46there's going to be trouble.
00:07:47Their investigation may detain us here for a month.
00:07:51Oh, it's too late.
00:07:52The natives are rioting already.
00:07:57Now we're in for it.
00:07:58Come on, let's get out of here.
00:07:59That's just what I was thinking.
00:08:01There's a clipper lying in a bay.
00:08:02If we hurry, we can make it.
00:08:03Oh, but if we run away now,
00:08:04it'll only make matters worse.
00:08:05They'll follow us.
00:08:06Let's risk that.
00:08:07Well, the man just said that Greg's safari
00:08:09went on to Africa,
00:08:10and we can't afford to waste any more time here.
00:08:12Are you packed?
00:08:13Oh, yes, yes.
00:08:14Well, then hurry.
00:08:15We'll meet you down in the lobby.
00:08:16Yes, hurry.
00:08:17Let's go.
00:08:19We were lucky to get out of the country
00:08:21without further trouble
00:08:22and to catch the clipper for Africa.
00:08:24We all felt encouraged as it seemed at last
00:08:27that we had picked up Greg's trail.
00:08:29After an uneventful flight,
00:08:32we landed in Africa
00:08:33and caught the riverboat
00:08:34and headed for Kaibo.
00:08:35Checkmate, Professor.
00:08:36Checkmate.
00:08:37Checkmate.
00:08:38Checkmate.
00:08:39Checkmate.
00:08:40Checkmate.

00:08:59Checkmate.
00:09:00Checkmate.
00:09:01Checkmate.
00:09:02Checkmate.
00:09:03Checkmate.
00:09:04Checkmate.
00:09:05Checkmate.
00:09:06Jane, when will you realize you're wasting your time in this search and buoying yourself
00:09:30up with false hopes?
00:09:31Wayne, please.
00:09:33If Greg were alive, he'd have communicated with you by now.
00:09:35That is, if he wanted to.
00:09:38And if he's dead, he's buried long ago.
00:09:40He'll never find any traces.
00:09:41Wayne, it was your idea to come with us.
00:09:43Now, if you want to go back, go back.
00:09:45Find time to tell me that in the middle of nowhere with alligators and lions and savages all around me.
00:09:51What's so funny, Colonel?
00:09:53I think it was Horace Greeley who said there are times when it's more dangerous to go back than to go ahead.
00:09:59Well, I'm not Horace Greeley.
00:10:00I think we all shoot back.
00:10:05Oh, well, now you know what that means, even on a trolley car.
00:10:09It means go ahead.
00:10:10I just came from the commissioner's office, and he's going to help us all he can.
00:10:23But he won't allow us to go into the backcountry without a guide.
00:10:27And unfortunately, the only man available is Gary Lambert.
00:10:31And he hates women.
00:10:34He hates women, huh?
00:10:35He thinks they're nuisance.
00:10:36Well, he does, does he?
00:10:38Don't you worry.
00:10:39I'll take care of that.
00:10:48Good shooting, huh, Jimmy?
00:10:49Nine out of ten.
00:10:51Here, put up this new target.
00:10:54Go on, Jim.
00:10:54Oh, hello, Commissioner.
00:11:02Oh, hello, Gary.
00:11:04Still at your target, eh?
00:11:06Well, I'm going to send you somewhere where you'll need that good marksmanship.
00:11:10There's another confounded party arriving, and you've got to help me with them.
00:11:14Well, I knew there was a catch to your visit, but I didn't think you were allowing any more expeditions to start out while the natives were so upset.
00:11:19Well, it's, it's, uh, orders from the home office.
00:11:23Besides, there's, uh, there's a girl with him.
00:11:25A girl, huh?
00:11:26Well, you can count me out.
00:11:28You mean to say you'd let another safari start out after what happened to the last one?
00:11:31Now, just the point, Gary.
00:11:33The man she's going to marry was with that last one, and she wants to find him.
00:11:38Now, look, Commissioner.
00:11:39You know I'd do anything I could for you.
00:11:41But you ought to know by now how I feel about women on safaris.
00:11:44They always want things impossible to get in the jungle.
00:11:47They're useless in emergencies.
00:11:48They're just added responsibility.
00:11:49I know all that.
00:11:50Maybe if you just met this girl and talked to her, you might persuade her to give up the idea.
00:11:55I don't want to meet her.
00:11:57I've never met one yet that wasn't a blasted nuisance.
00:12:14Miss Jean Preston, the young lady I was telling you about, Mr. Gary Lambert.
00:12:22Well, Annie Oakley, when do we start?
00:12:37That must be the village band come out to welcome us.
00:12:40Did they know we were coming?
00:12:42Oh, no, Professor.
00:12:48Hello, Mr. Lambert.
00:12:49Oh, hello.
00:12:50I've been looking for you.
00:12:52Is our safari ready?
00:12:53Yes, I've got the boys and the supplies all lined up.
00:12:56I certainly appreciate you going with us, even though you were against the whole idea.
00:13:02I understand you're having trouble getting a cook.
00:13:05Yes, I've been trying to get Gabby to go along with us.
00:13:07He's about the best cook in these parts, but I haven't been able to get a word in edgewise.
00:13:11Why don't you come over to the general store with me?
00:13:13We'll talk to him together.
00:13:14I'd love to.
00:13:15The fishers went sailing out into the west, out into the west as the sun goes down.
00:13:22We each thought on the woman who loved him best, and the children stood watching them out of the town.
00:13:28For men must work, and women must weep.
00:13:32And there's little to earn and many to keep, though the harbor bar be moaning.
00:13:36Three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower, and they trimmed the lamp as the sun went down.
00:13:43They looked at the squall, and they looked at the shower, and the nitrack came rolling up ragged and brown.
00:13:49Three corpses lay out on the shining sand in the morning gleam as the town went down.
00:13:53And the women are weeping and wringing their hands for those who will never come back to the town.
00:14:01For men must work, and women must weep.
00:14:05And the sooner it's over, the sooner to sleep.
00:14:08And goodbye to the bar, and it's moaning.
00:14:10Well, how about it, Gabby? You coming along as a cook?
00:14:20Well, I don't know.
00:14:23But to take up my story from where I left off, now let me see.
00:14:27Oh, yeah.
00:14:29After she throws the fifth rolling pin at me, I figure she don't like me.
00:14:33If that's the way she wants it, that's okay by me.
00:14:36The very next day, I ship out on the Pearl of Cape Town.
00:14:39For five years, then, I'm the best doggone sea cook on the whole Cape Coast.
00:14:43But everybody knows that, Gabby. That's why you're here.
00:14:46I never go ashore, though, never.
00:14:48So my wife don't catch me.
00:14:50By and by, I hear she's run away with some no-account from the inland country.
00:14:55Far, far away.
00:14:56So I'm a free man.
00:14:58But I don't get married no more. Oh, no.
00:15:00Now I got a cook. A cook's cook.
00:15:03So now you don't have any trouble.
00:15:05But I do. I do. That's just it.
00:15:07Well, but, Gabby, I don't see how that concerns you're going with us.
00:15:10My cook.
00:15:11She don't like me to go away.
00:15:12She thinks I'm such a good boss.
00:15:15Why don't you tell her to get a girlfriend to stay with her until you get back?
00:15:18Tell her you'll bring her messages and gifts from her people.
00:15:20Well, that's a good idea.
00:15:22To tell the truth, I wouldn't mind a little trip myself.
00:15:24After all, if a cook is a cook, he's got to keep a-cookin'.
00:15:27Supposing I talk to her, huh?
00:15:29That's a good idea.
00:15:30You go right ahead and talk to her.
00:15:31You'll find her in back.
00:15:32Okay.
00:15:35What's the matter with you, Gabby?
00:15:36You know Matty can't speak English.
00:15:38Oh, there's just a little joke on the lady.
00:15:45Commissioner, I've been waiting for you.
00:15:46Good, good.
00:15:47I was looking for you, too, Gary.
00:15:49To tell you the truth, Gary, I had two reasons told you to go on this trip.
00:15:54It wasn't only that the home office ordered me to look after this party.
00:15:57What else?
00:15:58This fellow Greg Jones that Miss Preston is looking for was sent out here on a mission.
00:16:03There's a contraband ring working somewhere in the back contraband shipping out ivory.
00:16:08And it was his job to find and stop them.
00:16:10I see.
00:16:11We're just as anxious about this situation as the people who hold the concession.
00:16:15So you'll be doing me a great favor if you get on the track of Greg Jones.
00:16:20Or find out what happened to him.
00:16:22I'll see what I can do.
00:16:22Yes, sir.
00:16:27Jimmy, go get the commissioner a match.
00:16:39Here you are, commissioner.
00:16:40That's a smart word you got, Gary.
00:16:49Now, you boys be careful of that stuff.
00:16:51I don't want it lost.
00:16:52I've had it a long time and I need it.
00:16:54Polo, you be a good boy.
00:16:55Don't make a monkey out of yourself.
00:16:57Don't you fight with Jimmy.
00:16:59Hmm?
00:17:02Well, Gabby's got his equipment ready.
00:17:04How about you, Colonel?
00:17:05All ready.
00:17:06Commissioner, are you sure these maps will get us where we're going?
00:17:08Here, sir.
00:17:09I suppose he's got to go along.
00:17:11The commissioner said quite definitely we can't go without him.
00:17:14Now, if he bothers you, you don't have to go.
00:17:17There's no reason for you to make this long, dangerous trek.
00:17:20If you go, I'm going to look after you.
00:17:22As you like.
00:17:24Goodbye, commissioner.
00:17:25Goodbye, Gary, and have a nice trip.
00:17:28Goodbye.
00:17:29Goodbye.
00:17:29Goodbye, professor.
00:17:31Goodbye, commissioner.
00:17:32Goodbye.
00:17:32Goodbye.
00:17:32Goodbye.
00:17:47The rate of pay isn't very high here.
00:17:50It'll take them two days to load our boats and get us ready for the safari.
00:17:54That, my dear, is the origin of all modern dancing.
00:18:16Looks like fun.
00:18:17You should try it sometime, Colonel.
00:18:19When they're small children, long bamboo shoots are forced into their flesh.
00:18:25The more pain they can bear, the more they are respected and admired.
00:18:44Oh, what a beautiful sight.
00:18:45This is the end of the river.
00:18:47There are the great falls of Africa.
00:18:49Yes, but like many other beautiful things, it has its drawbacks.
00:18:53This is as far as we can go by boat.
00:18:55Well, you mean this is the end of the line?
00:18:57You want a jungle?
00:18:58From here on, you've got it.
00:19:00Yeah.
00:19:01Under you and around you.
00:19:03Civilization was now far behind us.
00:19:17Nothing serious had happened since Moyo was killed.
00:19:20But we sensed that we were coming closer and closer to danger.
00:19:34Cimbala.
00:19:35Cimbala.
00:19:36Cimbala.
00:19:37We're going deep into the jungle.
00:19:38We need forty good boys and one good head man.
00:19:41Always I give you what you want.
00:19:43I send Tonga, my best head man.
00:19:46But first we have welcome dancers for you.
00:19:49Come now.
00:19:50You see.
00:19:51Cimbala.
00:19:52The Chief is very proud of his tribesmen and likes to show them off.
00:19:54It wouldn't be good policy to offend him.
00:19:56Cimbala.
00:19:57We're go.
00:20:02Cimbala.
00:20:04Cimbala.
00:20:05Cimbala.
00:20:08Cimbala.
00:20:09Cimbala.
00:20:13THE END
00:20:43That you find them in the strangest places
00:20:46After the ceremony, the natives gathered in the marketplace
00:20:58Where we bought the rest of our supplies
00:21:00As we wouldn't reach another village until we'd arrived at our destination
00:21:13They want the busy! They want the busy!
00:21:21Many big jobs to get 40 boy for you
00:21:29They scared of voodoo
00:21:31Voodoo? I thought you were all over that business, Tonga
00:21:34Tonga no afraid for voodoo, but boy plenty afraid
00:21:37What's the voodoo this time? Just what are they afraid of?
00:21:40White woman
00:21:42Well, I can't say as I blame them
00:21:44Pretty white woman, but bad
00:21:46She's queen of the she-devils
00:21:48Very pretty
00:21:50But good native is afraid from her
00:21:52White goddess
00:21:54Well, bless my soul, a white goddess in the jungle
00:21:57A white goddess, huh?
00:21:59She-devils
00:22:01Hmph
00:22:03And many
00:22:04Oh no, you varmint
00:22:08You varmint knocking down all my pots there
00:22:10Now who's going to pick them up, huh?
00:22:12Stay in there, you!
00:22:14That night the natives danced the sacred fire dance to bring us good luck on our journey
00:22:38Gary
00:22:39Gary
00:22:41Yes?
00:22:43Well, Miss Preston
00:22:52There's something I wanted to talk to you about
00:22:54The-these white women, Amazons, whatever you call them
00:22:58Amazons?
00:22:59Uh huh
00:23:00You don't really believe there are such creatures out here in the jungle, do you?
00:23:03Well, I-I don't know
00:23:04Well, if it'll make you feel any better
00:23:06We'll go see what Tonga has to say about it
00:23:08Come on
00:23:12Tonga
00:23:13I want you to tell us all you know about the white she-devils in the jungle
00:23:16Bad to talk
00:23:18They know everything
00:23:20They voodoo
00:23:30Tonga
00:23:31Tell us what you know of the white she-devils
00:23:33Speak
00:23:34Long time
00:23:35Long time
00:23:36Long, long time
00:23:39Big boat on the ocean
00:23:41Near mouth of river
00:23:42Big water
00:23:43High water
00:23:44In big stone
00:23:45In big stone
00:23:54Men try to get in boats
00:23:55Captain no legend
00:23:56Only women save
00:23:58Women make camp in jungle
00:24:01There she-devils you find now
00:24:05She-devils
00:24:06She-devils?
00:24:07Amazon?
00:24:08Why read that in Greek mythology
00:24:09It sounds like a fairy tale
00:24:11No, there's plenty of fact in what Tonga says
00:24:13That part of the jungle holds plenty of terror for those boys
00:24:16Or they wouldn't act up as they do
00:24:21Despite the warnings of Tonga about the white goddess
00:24:24We started on our long trek
00:24:26Determined at all costs
00:24:27To bring our search to a successful conclusion
00:24:30Innumerable obstacles seem to bar our progress
00:24:55And there was danger all around us
00:24:58Even the monkeys jabbered as if to warn us
00:25:16He'll come back
00:25:17He always does
00:25:28What do you see in your magic lantern?
00:25:39They certainly seem to be in a hurry
00:25:48They don't seem like company, do they?
00:25:50They don't seem to be in a hurry
00:25:56Buala
00:25:57This good boy Bambo
00:25:58He give me this
00:25:59You look, you look
00:26:00This is an American gold coin
00:26:02Why, that's Gregg's
00:26:03I gave it to him
00:26:04Are you sure?
00:26:05Of course
00:26:06He's worn it ever since I found it
00:26:07See the date?
00:26:081921, his birthday
00:26:10Yes, that's right
00:26:11And there's a square he cut in it so we could wear it in his key chain.
00:26:15Bambo, are you afraid of me?
00:26:18Ask him where he found us.
00:26:19He said, why did a man give it to him to bring to Commissioner?
00:26:22Oh, I'm sure we're on the right trail now. I'm sure of it.
00:26:25Don't build your hopes too high, Jane.
00:26:27Tonga, we may camp here tonight.
00:26:29See why...
00:26:29Night after night.
00:26:41As we made camp, our nerves were set on edge by a series of minor mishaps.
00:26:47It seemed as if an evil force were trying to impede our progress.
00:26:56You seem troubled about something.
00:26:59I didn't want to tell the others until I'd investigated further.
00:27:03Yes?
00:27:04This native boy confirms the voodoo that has our native carrier so badly frightened.
00:27:09I'm beginning to believe it.
00:27:09When there is a white woman, a she-devil.
00:27:13Bambo says she's holding Greg prisoner.
00:27:15Gary, Gary!
00:27:37Gary!
00:27:40Gary!
00:27:41Gary!
00:27:41Gary!
00:27:42Colonel, wait! Somebody come! Quick!
00:27:46What is it here?
00:27:48Gene, what is it?
00:27:50Wait! That line's going to kill him!
00:27:52Colonel, get back on, quickly!
00:27:54Furrytaga!
00:27:58What are they doing?
00:28:00Gary's fighting alive!
00:28:02And I...
00:28:04Furrytaga!
00:28:06Furrytaga!
00:28:20Good work, Wayne!
00:28:22That firebrand did the trick!
00:28:24Gary!
00:28:28That's one I owe you, mister.
00:28:30I guess that puts me ledger now.
00:28:32But I'd rather it would have been anyone else but you.
00:28:34I didn't do it because I liked it.
00:28:38Thanks, anyway.
00:28:42Colonel, if my suspicions prove correct,
00:28:44I'll be able to tell you in the morning.
00:28:46He's responsible for all our troubles.
00:28:48What do you mean, Wayne?
00:28:49Well, I'm convinced that someone in the outfit is making every effort possible to keep us from reaching Greg.
00:28:53Oh, that's nonsense. What could they have to gain?
00:28:55That's just it. I don't know.
00:28:57Well, who could it be, anyway?
00:28:59Not you or me, and certainly not Gene.
00:29:01Could be the professor here.
00:29:03Or Gary.
00:29:04I don't know, but I'm gonna find out.
00:29:07I know you'll think I'm running a fever when I tell you this.
00:29:10That animal is wearing a collar around its neck.
00:29:13Oh, excuse me. I'm sorry I did that.
00:29:23I'm sorry, you're sorry.
00:29:28After what you've just been through, I can't help feeling jittery.
00:29:31Well, that's all right, Gene. Don't let it upset you.
00:29:34I'm sorry I got you into this really a hand.
00:29:37Don't blame yourself.
00:29:38I had other reasons for coming along other than seeing you through.
00:29:41You had?
00:29:42Mm-hmm.
00:29:43A little matter of a million dollars a year that the government is losing on revenue.
00:29:47On the exportation of ivory out of this district.
00:29:49You mean ivory runners?
00:29:51Well, we call it contraband.
00:29:53I knew Greg was here on some secret mission.
00:29:56Maybe it had something to do with this.
00:29:58It had.
00:29:59Someone has been taking ivory out of here for years.
00:30:02The commissioner and I thought that by using this safari as a cover-up,
00:30:05we might be able to put our finger on the guilty ones.
00:30:08I haven't been able to tell you so far because, well, I didn't know how far I could trust you.
00:30:13All the time I thought, well, I sort of...
00:30:17You sort of what?
00:30:19Thought you came on my account.
00:30:21When we left, you told me you were engaged to Greg.
00:30:24I am?
00:30:25So I naturally concluded that you were in love with him.
00:30:28You certainly wouldn't have started on this long search if you hadn't been.
00:30:31We grew up together.
00:30:32I've known him all my life.
00:30:33I've never even thought of marrying anyone else but Greg.
00:30:37Oh, I see.
00:30:40That doesn't mean I can't have friends.
00:30:42Good friends.
00:30:43Like Wayne, for instance?
00:30:45Why, yes.
00:30:46Wayne's a friend.
00:30:48Is that the way he wants it?
00:30:49No.
00:30:50But I can't help that.
00:30:52I've made it quite clear to him many times that we could never be anything more.
00:30:56Why, even if I didn't love Greg, I couldn't care for Wayne.
00:31:01How about me if you didn't love Greg?
00:31:04What a strange question.
00:31:06I do love Greg.
00:31:09What if you didn't?
00:31:10How can I tell?
00:31:12Things would be different.
00:31:13I...
00:31:14But you can't be sure about me.
00:31:16Why, I don't know.
00:31:18I've always thought Greg was the only one I could ever love that way.
00:31:22Or...
00:31:23Or marry.
00:31:24I guess I had it fixed in my mind.
00:31:26Oh, you've got me so mixed up.
00:31:28Have I?
00:31:30Yes.
00:31:31That's what I'm trying to do.
00:31:34Good night, Gary.
00:31:36Good night, Jean.
00:31:37Good night, Jean.
00:31:56Have you seen Wayne this morning?
00:31:58Come to think of it, I haven't.
00:32:00Gary.
00:32:01Last night, Wayne told me he'd won the confidence of Bombo.
00:32:03We told him he knows exactly where to find the White Woman's encampment.
00:32:07He promised to tell me the location this morning.
00:32:10What a time off to draw a map.
00:32:12That's very strange, Jean.
00:32:14Bombo refused to confide even in Tonga.
00:32:16Yet he agreed to guide us there.
00:32:18We'll be.
00:32:19We'll be.
00:32:20We'll be.
00:32:21We'll be.
00:32:22We'll be.
00:32:23Turn it.
00:32:24Yes, Wayne.
00:32:25There's been a white man injured.
00:32:26Come on.
00:32:31Man is there.
00:32:33Wayne.
00:32:48That footprint was meant to look like a native's, but it was made by white men.
00:32:58But surely that's impossible.
00:32:59How can you tell?
00:33:01Whoever made that print was accustomed to wearing shoes.
00:33:04What bothers me, as far as we know, the only white men within miles of here are in this camp.
00:33:11And one of them's a murderer.
00:33:18With heavy hearts, we continued our journey, missing Wayne a hundred times a day.
00:33:48Uh-oh.
00:33:55Locusts.
00:34:08Hunger.
00:34:09We'd better camp there tonight until the locusts have passed.
00:34:11This is a bad place for Camp Juana.
00:34:13This lion country.
00:34:16Anyhow, I think this is our best bet.
00:34:17Light fires tonight and keep a sharp lookout.
00:34:19Azudi.
00:34:20Azudi.
00:34:21Azudi.
00:34:22Simba.
00:34:23Simba.
00:34:24Simba.
00:34:25Simba.
00:34:26It did seem we were having more than our share of bad luck.
00:34:28We ran into swarms of locusts, were attacked by animals.
00:34:32And now we were in the lion country, the land of Simba.
00:34:37Some foreboarding of disaster had taken hold of Bambo.
00:34:45He still strode at the head of the safari.
00:34:48But his courage and confidence were fast disappearing.

00:35:37Sambo was leading us to this white woman he spoke of.
00:35:40was leading us to this white woman he spoke of he alone had the directions the
00:35:47day he confided those directions to Wayne Wayne was killed evidently by a
00:35:52white man now Bombo is gone and they have those footprints again Gary it
00:35:58can't be much further I don't know that but if you were pretty close to what
00:36:03we're looking for please let's go on huh all right with you gentlemen yeah well
00:36:10if we're all agreed we'll go on although I admit it appears useless without Bombo
00:36:20before we go my men get lion they think lion kill Bombo it's a fine idea Tonga
00:36:29good luck to you and your men
00:36:35these superstitious natives could not be pacified after Bombo's death until we
00:36:40allowed them to organize a lion hunt to avenge their lost leader they donned
00:36:44their helmets made of lion's maids their spears and shields and after dancing
00:36:49tribute to their gods scattered to round up the beasts of prey

00:38:21Simba Hapa! Simba Hapa!
00:38:51Success crowned their efforts.
00:39:06Five man-eaters fell, pierced with avenging spears.
00:39:09Finally, we reached the elephant country, and we're nearing our goal.
00:39:34Somewhere close ahead of us was the Forbidden Territory,
00:39:38presided over by the dreaded white goddess and the savage tribes under her domination.
00:39:43If I'd turn my profile, heaven help my nose.
00:39:55Fix the gorilla's nose, Greg.
00:39:57All right.
00:39:59All right.
00:39:59I'm afraid you're getting tired of me, Greg, are you?
00:40:21That's right, dear.
00:40:24Are you making joke with me, Greg?
00:40:26Well, why do you ask?
00:40:28You seem restless, uneasy.
00:40:31Are you unhappy?
00:40:33Of course not, Zita.
00:40:34I've never been happier than my life.
00:40:42What's going on here?
00:40:52Zita, my dear, you're quite a queen.
00:40:54Someone has to be bossed, dear.
00:41:01Greg, Tony's been hurt.
00:41:07It's a bullet wound.
00:41:10And bullet means stranger.
00:41:15Greg, you're angry with me because I've sent for information on that safari.
00:41:19That's it, isn't it?
00:41:23No, of course that isn't it.
00:41:24I just want to stay here and meet these people.
00:41:27You know, Zita, it's been a long time since I've seen anybody from the outside.
00:41:30But, Greg, we must be represented at the council meeting.
00:41:34That's more important.
00:41:36It's the only way we can keep the natives in line.
00:41:39And we just can't take any chances on being absent.
00:41:43If that's what will make you happy, I'll go.
00:41:46Oh, I knew you would, darling.
00:41:58Tony, when that safari arrives, we'll handle our own way.
00:42:04Without interference from anybody.
00:42:06And the natives reluctant to move on.
00:42:12Suddenly, out of the underbrush appeared three strangely painted warriors.
00:42:18Looks like we have guests.
00:42:20Colonel, tell Tonga to stand by.
00:42:25What do you want?
00:42:31This is strange.
00:42:33Those natives brought us a message.
00:42:34Three of your party may proceed to my camp.
00:42:38But only three.
00:42:41You'll be guided by the bearer of this note.
00:42:43I promise you safe return.
00:42:45Zita.
00:42:46Well, I, for one, am going.
00:42:47Who are the other two?
00:42:48I feel it's my duty to go.
00:42:50Thank you, Colonel.
00:42:52I'm going too, of course.
00:42:53Well, that's impossible, Gene.
00:42:54This may be an ambush.
00:42:55We don't know what we're getting into.
00:42:56Yes, remember, my dear.
00:42:57It was here the last party was attacked and destroyed.
00:42:59It may be a trap.
00:43:00You remain here with Tonga, the natives.
00:43:02They'll guard you until we return.
00:43:04And if we don't come back, they'll get you out safely.
00:43:07I'm quite sure the professor won't mind staying behind with Tonga to take back news in case something happens to us.
00:43:13No use.
00:43:14I've made up my mind.
00:43:15I'm going with you.
00:43:16This is no place for monkeys, Polo.
00:43:21Let's get out of here.
00:43:24Oh, you are beautiful, Zita.
00:43:26Just too beautiful.
00:43:27Shuggy, a woman can never be too beautiful.
00:43:31You know, I really think some of the girls are jealous of you.
00:43:34They are?
00:43:35Oh, but they all worship you, of course.
00:43:38They aren't the only ones that worship you.
00:43:39Zita, I'm leaving for a meeting of the council, as you want me to.
00:43:50But before I go, I want you to promise me something.
00:43:54Yes, Greg.
00:43:55But you'll hold that safari here until I get back.
00:43:58Of course, darling, if you want me to.
00:44:00I do.
00:44:01I do.
00:44:01I do.
00:44:01I do.
00:44:09I do.
00:44:40Everyone in the jungle knows that strangers are not welcome here.
00:44:43We've come to investigate a rumor that a certain safari was attacked near here,
00:44:48and all the members of its party were killed except one,
00:44:51whom you're holding prisoner.
00:44:53My warriors resent strangers.
00:44:55They are determined to kill all who attempt to invade this country.
00:44:59If I had been informed in time,
00:45:01I might have been able to save the other members of the party you speak of.
00:45:05As for the one member I was able to save,
00:45:08he is no prisoner.
00:45:09But it remains here of his own will.
00:45:11In that case, we should be able to see him,
00:45:14and hear this from his own lips.
00:45:15Certainly.
00:45:16Come with me.
00:45:17make yourself comfortable.
00:45:30You must be tired after this long journey.
00:45:38Wouldn't you like to have some refreshments?
00:45:39Oh, thank you, that'll be fine.
00:45:41Shuggy!
00:45:43We have guests.
00:45:44Prepare food and refreshments.
00:45:46Yes, Zeta.
00:45:47I was explaining to Miss Preston that it was almost impossible to find Greg Jones in this jungle.
00:45:54But Miss Preston wouldn't be convinced.
00:45:56Without first making every effort to find out if it's here.
00:45:59So the sole reason for this safari was to find Greg Jones?
00:46:03What other reason could there be?
00:46:04To hunt wild beasts.
00:46:06To explore strange territories.
00:46:09Perhaps in search of ivory.
00:46:11Men coming to the jungle for all sorts of reasons.
00:46:15That is why, if we wish to remain in peace,
00:46:18we must set up barriers against them.
00:46:21I see.
00:46:22Well, I'm afraid we are imposing on you,
00:46:25forcing ourselves in here this way,
00:46:27but you can understand we were concerned about Greg.
00:46:29Of course, Colonel, I understand.
00:46:32I tried to persuade Greg to return or send a message out,
00:46:35but he is very stubborn.
00:46:37I know that.
00:46:38And your visit, far from being an intrusion,
00:46:41I expected you and anticipated meeting you,
00:46:43both you and Miss Preston.
00:46:47Really?
00:46:47Oh, I assure you, Greg told me all about you.
00:46:51Really?
00:46:52Really.
00:46:54Well, this is very enjoyable,
00:46:57but after all, my dear,
00:46:59we came here on a definite mission.
00:47:01Yes.
00:47:02When do we see Greg?
00:47:03He's representing me now at the Council of the Chiefs.
00:47:06It's extraordinary how he has managed to impress them
00:47:09in his short stay here.
00:47:11Already they acknowledge his authority
00:47:13and accept his domination.
00:47:16Yes, he's a remarkable boy.
00:47:18And so are you, my dear.
00:47:19Tell me, how did you have managed to acquire
00:47:22such a marvelous education here in the jungle?
00:47:25I landed here as a child
00:47:26when the ship on which we were traveling
00:47:28foundered on the coast.
00:47:30My mother taught us children.
00:47:32She was a natural leader,
00:47:33so the others followed her.
00:47:35Now, they follow me.
00:47:37And there are no white men here at all?
00:47:39No white man has ever come into our territory
00:47:42until Greg came.
00:47:43We have often considered to invite
00:47:45desirable white settlers to come here
00:47:47because many of our girls
00:47:49have reached a suitable age to marry.
00:47:52Yes, so I see.
00:47:53Do you mind, my dear?
00:47:54I've been saving for just such an event.
00:47:56Not at all.
00:47:57May I have a few words with you?
00:48:00Alone.
00:48:05You don't think Gene is in any danger?
00:48:08What else can we do?
00:48:09I sent Greg on an important mission.
00:48:14But he'll be back before you leave.
00:48:16Yes, I know.
00:48:17I have no intention of leaving
00:48:18until he does get back.
00:48:20You still think I'm holding him here
00:48:22against his will?
00:48:23Well, it does seem likely, doesn't it?
00:48:26It's what you prefer to believe, naturally.
00:48:28But it isn't true.
00:48:30The fact is that Greg has fallen in love with me
00:48:33and I'm in love with him.
00:48:35I'll believe that when I hear him tell it.
00:48:37You don't suppose I'd be foolish enough
00:48:40to tell it if it weren't so,
00:48:41knowing that you're going to see him presently.
00:48:45I could have waited to let him tell you
00:48:47because I know he will.
00:48:49But I thought it better to settle it,
00:48:52frankly, between ourselves.
00:48:53I don't see that there's anything to settle.
00:48:56But Greg has promised to marry you.
00:48:58And men are stupid when bound by such promises.
00:49:02All I know is that he loves me.
00:49:04And if he were free, he'd marry me.
00:49:07As far as his promise goes,
00:49:10don't think that I'd hold him for one instant
00:49:12if he really wanted to be free.
00:49:14Do you really mean that?
00:49:16Honestly?
00:49:17Of course I mean it.
00:49:17I'm glad you're inclined to feel so sensible about it.
00:49:23Because I would have had you killed
00:49:25rather than give him up.
00:49:28You see, here in the jungle,
00:49:30such things are very easily managed.
00:49:33And I'm not bound by the conventional laws of society
00:49:36that hamper you.
00:49:39Greg says,
00:49:40I'm more than half savage.
00:49:43And maybe I am.
00:49:46All I know is that I'm willing to fight for what I want
00:49:49and won't stop short of anything to get it.
00:49:53And Greg really means that much to you.
00:49:57He really means that much.
00:49:59Don't make any mistake about it.
00:50:01Now that we understand each other,
00:50:06I don't see why we shouldn't be friends.
00:50:09Why not?
00:50:11This is an outrage.
00:50:13Put me down.
00:50:14I was minding my own business and this bug
00:50:17when I was picked up by these two women.
00:50:19I thought there was going to be trouble,
00:50:21so I got Tonga to leave me here.
00:50:23We avoided the natives, all right.
00:50:26But then I found my precious Sozodora Telameda.
00:50:30And then these creatures overpowered me.
00:50:36Take it easy, Pupin.
00:50:38Come on, get up.
00:50:39Oh, shit.
00:50:41There you are.
00:50:42Now, what's this all about?
00:50:45I see you worried about Miss Preston.
00:50:47I assure you she's quite safe.
00:50:49That's why we're here, to make sure.
00:50:51Miss Preston is in my charge.
00:50:53Of course, you became friends, too,
00:50:55during this long trek.
00:50:57You spend hours together.
00:50:59And the lonely nights in the jungle
00:51:01are somehow different
00:51:02than the nights you spend anywhere else.
00:51:05Conventional barriers used to exist.
00:51:09You come close to one another.
00:51:12Well, you seem to know an awful lot about this.
00:51:16I lived here all my life.
00:51:18I know all about it.
00:51:20I think you know all about a lot of things.
00:51:22I wish I knew some of them.
00:51:23I'm sure you would.
00:51:25In fact, I don't think there's very much
00:51:26happens in this jungle that you don't know about.
00:51:28Not much.
00:51:30Your safari wasn't out two days
00:51:32when the jungle underground told me you were coming.
00:51:34You know, you seem very friendly.
00:51:36I wonder just how friendly you are.
00:51:39Why not put me to the test?
00:51:41I will.
00:51:42I didn't come out here just to guide Miss Preston.
00:51:45I had an added reason.
00:51:47Concerning the ivory.
00:51:48That's right.
00:51:49And I want you to tell me the name of the leader of your organization.
00:51:53Organization?
00:51:54What do you mean?
00:51:55I think we understand each other.
00:51:57Contraband ivory.
00:51:59You're asking for trouble, Mr. Lambert.
00:52:01The man is a killer and a thief,
00:52:03and I came out here to get him.
00:52:04Will you agree to get me out of it?
00:52:10Not even to mention where you got the information?
00:52:13If I tell you this killer's name?
00:52:16Why not let me tell him?
00:52:18Need I go on, Mr. Lambert?
00:52:19This doesn't make sense to me.
00:52:21It didn't very clear to me either.
00:52:24Gabby!
00:52:24Down, Polo.
00:52:25Down.
00:52:27I'm a little surprised, Zita,
00:52:28that you would dissolve our partnership so abruptly.
00:52:31Oh, yes.
00:52:32I've known about this Greg for some time,
00:52:35but I didn't think you'd sell me out for him.
00:52:41Lambert,
00:52:41I tried to stop you from coming here,
00:52:44not once, but several times.
00:52:46I tried to lose you in the jungle.
00:52:48And when little Bamba was about to guide you here,
00:52:50I...
00:52:51I took care of him.
00:52:54Unfortunately for Wayne Monroe,
00:52:55he learned too much for his own good,
00:52:56and now you've all learned too much.
00:52:59It's too late for anyone to leave.
00:53:02My warriors will take care of you and your friends,
00:53:09Mr. Lambert.
00:53:11But the ladies remain.
00:53:13Gary!
00:53:13Pacey, Pacey.
00:53:14You are the first lady.
00:53:24I know you're the best.
00:53:27She's your best.
00:53:27She is your best.
00:53:28She is a lover.
00:53:29We've come here.
00:53:29It's all for you.
00:53:30Gary!
00:53:30I know you're the best.
00:53:31My brother.
00:53:31I know you're not.
00:53:32He's the best.
00:53:32I know you're a good.
00:53:33He's a bad guy.
00:53:33I know you're a good guy.
00:53:34He's the best.
00:53:35I know you're a bad guy.
00:53:37He's the best.
00:53:38I know you're a good guy.
00:53:38If I nudge, you'll fall down.
00:53:46Fall down?
00:53:47Why?
00:53:47Don't ask questions.
00:53:53Get some water, quick.
00:54:08Get some water, quick.
00:54:38Get some water, quick.
00:55:08I haven't seen one of these in 30 years.
00:55:11So are you and your bug-ology.
00:55:13My gun is jammed.
00:55:27Looks like we've got help.
00:55:36I'm going in the house after Gene.
00:55:37Cover me.
00:55:38All right.
00:55:38It's good to see you, Dad.
00:55:49Sorry, I can't say the same for you, you young fool.
00:55:52You could have at least written us a letter to let us know you were alive.
00:55:58How did I give a hang?
00:55:59I did send word out several times.
00:56:01Somebody must have stopped my messengers.
00:56:05Obviously, it was our good friend Gabby the Cook.
00:56:07For men must work and women must weep.
00:56:11And the sooner it's over, the sooner to sleep.
00:56:14My dear, since you've lived by the ways of the jungle, I think it's only befitting that you should, shall we say, depart in the same manner?
00:56:32Time and tide wait for no man, my dear.
00:56:55I don't have a destiny for any woman.
00:57:10Josh!
00:57:25I don't have a destiny for you, I don't have a destiny for you.
00:57:55I don't have a destiny for you.
00:58:25You're hurt.
00:58:37It's nothing.
00:58:38You saved my life.
00:58:39And delivered me not only from despair, but from something much more dreadful.
00:58:44I'm grateful.
00:58:45I don't know how to thank you.
00:58:47Looks like we got him on the run, Dad.
00:58:57For men must work.
00:59:00And women must...
00:59:03Weak.
00:59:17Professor, this is probably one of the first double wedding ceremonies that has ever taken place in the jungle.
00:59:31Oh, that's why the commissioner came last night.
00:59:35Isn't it wonderful?
00:59:37Wonderful. It is. It is an idiosondra providora.
00:59:42Looks like a spider to me.
00:59:48That ivory's going in the right direction at last.
00:59:50That completes my mission here.
00:59:52I'm leaving my wild jungle up behind me.
00:59:54Wild life!
00:59:56You should see one of our light clouds.
