Safari! Safari!

Hey, nobody told you to knock off. Come on, back to work.

What do you mean, no?

That's mutiny.

Or something.

All right, take five.

Boy, the kind of help you get for nothing these days.

Come on, beautiful, don't hog all the water, huh?

Hey, come on out of there.

Too hot to work, you're too hot to play.

Now just take a rest. We gotta get this job done.

Field mouse to dragon lady. Field mouse to dragon lady.

Come in, dragon. How you doing?

Dragon lady to field rat.

I'm doing just fine.

How are the three of you and your pickin' shovel brigade doing?

What do you mean, three?

It's just me and Judy.

Judy won't work.

Well, why don't you pay her off in bananas? She might give a little.

Where's Dad?

He's out in the bush trying to keep a herd of wildebeest from coming over here

and breaking their necks.

Area's full of old poacher's pits.

You just better stay on high ground, huh?

Out.

Come in, Mike. Come in.

Go ahead, Paula.

Dad's somewhere out in the bush. You want me to get a message to him?

On the double.

Officer Hedley's here pressing the panic button with both hands and feet.

What's the emergency?

He won't say.

He's playing it very cloak and daggerish. But he wants you back the

Well, tell that worried jungle James Bond not to lose his cool.

Dad'll be back as soon as the supersonic jet truck can get him there.

Oh, Paula.

Hedley brought a package for you. It looks important.

Oh, great. I've been waiting for that.

See you there.

Well, you heard. He'll be back as soon as possible.

The sooner, the better.

Now, Mike, I know Daktar is highly skilled with all kinds of animals, but

between ourselves, how is he with cheetahs?

Well, he's very good with them.

Are you speaking in generalities or specifics?

This is Tom's secret, Mike, the most confidential.

The future of this compound, the lives of countless animals, could be in

jeopardy.

And it all depends on one animal.

Yes, I have a special cheetah in mind.

Good day, Officer Hadley. What kept you so long?

Where's Daktari? Did he dally on the way to chat with some of his animal

friends? I wouldn't say he dallied. He did stop off with Paula to check on one

of them.

He'll be back in a minute. You look like you're going to have kittens.

Hey, we're ready for you.

Mike, get some boiling water. Clean towel.

Daktari will be in hot water if he doesn't show up soon.

The emir of Assambana, the great friend of the governor's on his way here with

his prize racing cheetah, Kimbeer.

You know Mike?

The one that won the grand prize at the hunt meet last year.

Oh, yes. A handsome animal. What's wrong with him? He doesn't know.

But he expects Marsh to work his usual instant miracle and cure the beast.

Hedley, this time it could be something that Dr. Harry cannot cure. You should

know that. I do.

But there's more at stake than you realize.

Kimbia's principal rival is the cheetah owned by the chief of the Nabulu tribe,

the emir's bitterest political enemy.

So you can expect the emir to hold his sword of Damocles over Marsh's head.

The mission for our animals to seek water on his land?

Oh, no, not that again.

What's that all about?

Jack, the emir's grazing land abuts the northwest corners of the Wamaru Game

Reserve. Yeah, I know.

Now, the emir permits your wildlife to enter his territory for water during the

dry season.

Oh, yeah, that's now.

But that's kind of automatic, isn't it?

Oh, Jack, don't ever take anything for granted with the emir. He is as

unpredictable as a summer storm and often behaves like one.

He's given strict instruction to his people not to harm your animals.

But he could change his mind.

But he wouldn't rescind his permission to use the water, would he?

Well, I hope not.

I know the emir can be ruthless with his enemies, but I don't think he will let

his tribesmen kill our animals.

Perhaps not, but as a close friend of the governor of Nagoro, he could make

very sticky for you people here.

Headley.

You know, it might be a good idea if you stuck around to be on the reception

committee. Oh, that could take hours.

The chief of the Nabula tribe's determined to win this year, and I've

rumors of his Nabula warriors lurking in the bush, so I want to intercept them

before we have a jolly little jungle war on our hands.

Ah, that sounds like the Amias caravan now.

I'll say hello down the road and then push on.

Meanwhile, clear the decks for your new star patient. Oh, and tell Marsh I'm

keeping my fingers crossed.

Will do.

Why is Cheetah blindfolded?

Because he's trained to run when it's taken off.

Welcome to Romero, Your Excellency.

May your sons have many sons, and may they have the strength of elephants, the

hearts of lion, and the eyes of eagle.

Thank You dr. Lee and may I add to the wish that they be fleet of foot as the

cheetah But my prize Kim be I was before he was stricken with his evil sickness.

Oh No, he can hardly move at all.

But in a few days he must race like an arrow

It seems to be an abnormal

growth here on the left foreleg First I can't examine it properly until we go to

the dispensary

So you like my cumbia, huh?

Judy has always loved cheetahs, Your Excellency.

Ever since I found a newborn one in the bush and brought it back, Judy fussed

over that cheetah as if it were her own.

Finally, when he was full grown, I had to take him back into the bush.

Well, you know, I don't think Judy's ever forgiven me.

And now she thinks that every cheetah is her lost baby, huh?

Well, you might say that she shares your affection for cheetahs.

Say, while we're examining your cumbia, perhaps my daughter and Judy could show

you around the compound.

Oh, thank you, Dr. Talley.

I would be delighted.

Hello, Judy.

Hey, Wayne.

Hey, Judy. Dr. Talley. Okay.

Karen Lee, why do you keep the animals caged together?

Well, we're teaching them to get along.

No, Judy, that belongs to His Excellency.

That's all right.

Let her have it.

She interests me.

Well, you'll have to forgive her, Your Excellency. At times she can be very

selfish. Human beings are selfish.

Why should an alibi be less?

There's no doubt about it. I'll have to operate.

But a complete recovery is going to depend on whether or not we have to

that bone.

Yeah. If there's any kind of surgery, it can be he's not going to make it to the

starting line for that track meet.

If there's any bone infection, it can be he may well end up permanently lame.

Well, let's go break the news through his expletive.

So, we will have to remove what appears to be a small absence.

Then he will win the race, yes?

Your Excellency, in any surgery, it is difficult to know what we may run into.

Doctor, I've seen you perform wonders with these animals, and I am truly

impressed. I will go visit my friend, the governor of Nagoda, for a few days,

then return and take my cheetah to the race.

Yes, Your Excellency, but you must realize that in any operation, there are

problems.

Problems? You will crush them as an elephant crushes an ant hill.

But, Your Excellency, no doctor can predict what will happen.

Then I will tell you what will happen.

If my cheetah does not have a full recovery, hundreds of your animals now

land will die.

There will be a slaughter such as you could never envision. And you will

their executioner.

Thank you.

There goes your troublesome abscess.

And you didn't have to touch the bone.

No, thank goodness.

You ever want to buy up some of that, though, just to make sure?

What's wrong here?

How's the heartbeat?

Strong and steady.

Oh, Judy, this house is good as new again.

Well, it needs a little time and lots of work.

Maybe you'd better forget about it. You are not a doctor yet.

Come on, doc.

Doctor, it's okay.

All right, good.

Well, they'll be coming around soon. Let's move on.

Paula, will you keep your eye on Kabir?

Jack and I have to make our rounds now.

I will look in on our expected hyena.

Judy, how thoughtful of you. A comedian doesn't eat fruit like you do. You give

us some nice milk.

You'll like that a lot better.

All right, Judy, you can feed him.

Oh, Judy, how could you?

You don't help things at all.

Now you stay here and watch Camille while I go and change.

And clean up this floor while you're at it.

Well, so that's the mystery of the package from Nagoro, huh? You look very

Thank you.

I'll second that, but if you keep it up, we're going to have to start wearing

dinner jackets.

How's our prize patient coming along?

Purring like a kitten.

Come and see.

I thought I should have waited to try on this dress from the girl.

Maybe Judy took him outside Mike

Mike

have you seen Judy? Oh, there can be I know They both disappeared. You know how

fond Judy is of a Cambia. Well, don't be so quick to accuse Judy. Remember what

Hedley said about Nabulu warriors being in the area.

We haven't seen any around here.

You have to have sharp eyes to spot them. They're like chameleons, shadows

the bush.

And their chief wants to win the race as much as the emir.

But would he murder Cambia just to win a sporting event?

Indeed he would.

But why?

You get into bush country politics, Paula, you find it's more than a sport.

Both the emir and the Nibulu chief want to be head man, paramount chief of this

whole territory.

So they each have to be the best in everything.

Thanks.

Do you really think the emir would carry out his threat to kill all our animals

if anything happened to Kumbhia?

Daktari, for 30 years he has been supreme ruler of Asambana.

Not once has he failed to execute a promise or a threat.

Judy, have you seen your buddy, Kimbia?

Judy, Kimbia's missing. Have you seen him?

Now, Judy, do you understand?

Kimbia is missing.

Jack!

Mike!

Did you ask her?

Nothing.

Judy, where is Kimbia?

Ray sent me on the two -way. Asked him and his men to be on the lookout for can

be about teeth required.

Think we should start our search now?

No, it's too late. It'll be dark in an hour. Yeah.

What do you say we feed the animals and work out a schedule with Marsh for an

early morning stop?

All righty. Good.

Yes, Clarence. I know it's your chow time, too.

Clarence, eat your food slowly.

It's bad enough you've got crossed eyes. We don't want you to be the first lion

in the jungle with a stomach ulcer.

Clarence, don't gobble your food down like a pig.

All right, don't complain to me if you have a giant bellyache.

comes the aim here.

I thought he was going to stay with the governor for a while.

You know, I'll bet he spent every minute worrying about his cheetah.

You can't tell him the cheetah's missing. He'll explode like a volcano.

Yeah, well, um, good thing it's cost.

Welcome once again, Your Excellency.

I hope you had a pleasant trip to Nagorno.

Splendid, Doctor. I met the chief of the Nibulu tribe, and he challenged me to a

wager. One hundred goats, two hundred cattle are the outcome of the race.

He had heard a rumor that Macambio was late, but of course I assured him that

was in the good hands of the Doctor Tracy.

Of course, I accepted the wager.

Tell me, how was the operation?

Oh, it was a great success.

He will run again.

Like the winds of an angry storm.

Excellent. He's still in the hospital, yes?

Oh, yes, yes. I may go see him. Well, I was going to say, Your Excellency, you

must be very tired after your long journey. Wouldn't a little refreshment

order? Oh, thank you, but after I see my cambia.

Your Excellency, I think I should explain.

Explain the relationship between the doctor and his patient.

You see, here at the Wameru compound, I am king.

I am absolute ruler of all that you see, as you are in your province.

Should that be otherwise?

The point is well taken.

But I only want to see my Kimbia and perhaps pet him.

No.

No, I have worked very hard to save his life.

You want to pet him and disturb him?

Well, that might destroy our entire recovery program.

Tell me, Doctor, eh?

When may I have my cheetah back?

The moment I say he's ready and not before.

He is my cheetah, and I demand to see him at once.

He is my patient, and I forbid it.

I suggest that you return to Nagoro, and I personally will bring Cambia to you

as soon as he's ready.

I shall not leave this area.

I will set my tents up outside on the hill, and I will wait.

Well, then, I think a little rest is in order. Perhaps relieve your mind over

convenience. Well, thank you, Doctor. You are very wise and compassionate.

But I will not wait for long.

You're just in time to have missed the aim here. Well, that was a bit of luck.

Say, what have you got here?

Two Nibula warriors I found lurking in the bush.

Well,

any sign of our cheetah? Sorry, old man, not even a glimmer. I did interrogate

these two.

They weren't talking. They're pretty stalwart fellows, picked, I suspect, for

that reason.

All I can do is to take them into the gordo and hold them until I get some

evidence on them. Well, by the looks of them, I'll bet they know something.

Look, my men are threatened, pleaded, cajoled, promised, but they simply deny

any knowledge of the cheetah.

Just the same, I'd like to have Mike take a try at them. Mike, do you mind?

Very well.

Clarence, I know you didn't get much to eat last night, but those warriors are

definitely not on your diet.

Dad, they've got to be the ones that took him via.

I've never seen Clarence so furious.

He's acting like a lion.

If they did take Cambia, where is he?

I hope they didn't kill him.

Clarence, you're more effective than truth serum.

One look at those ferocious teeth and those Nabulus talked.

Their chief ordered them to steal Cambia.

But they swear they did not carry out their crime. I believe them.

Well, then Kabir still must be alive.

Do they know where he is?

No, they did not.

They were about to steal the cheetah when Clarence chased them into the bush.

Well, then Kabir must be out there somewhere.

Brother, I sure hope he didn't re -injure his leg.

Or fallen prey to some other animal.

See, Cambia, don't try to take him alone.

Contact Paula on the two -way radio and she'll relay it on to me.

Have you got that straight, dear? Yes, I promise I won't goof.

All righty.

Look, don't forget, we'll call in on the hour, every hour.

Come on, let's get going.

Judy, that's my new dress.

We don't have time to play around. We have to find Convea. So leave my dress

alone.

Boy Scout to Romero, Boy Scout to Romero.

Go ahead.

Yeah, it's me. I'm at coordinates L for Lion,

3 -5.

All right, I'm logging you at L -3 -5 at 0800 hours.

Eagle to Romero Princess.

This is Mike, Paula.

What do you hear from Jack and Marsh?

Jack has scored a zero so far. I haven't heard a thing from Dad.

How about you?

I just spoke to a convention of zebra, but not a cheetah among them.

I'm at four for ostrich, seven, two.

Heading northeast.

And we'll check with you within the hour.

Over and out.

Yes, Dad, I read you. Where are you?

At coordinate H for hippopotamus, 4 -7.

Plenty of animals, but no cambia.

Have Jack and Mike checked in?

Yes, on time, but results negative.

Well, I'm heading due north to the Mahali Waterhole. Out.

Clarence, are you hungry again?

It's not even lunchtime.

Hey, uh, Clarence, I have to go to the dispensary for a minute.

I want you to be my radio answering service.

Well, what if I gave you a bone?

Good.

Okay, Clarence, now listen to me carefully.

You see that radio up there on the desk?

Now, if you hear a sound out of that radio, I want you to give me a nice big

growl into this radio.

That's right, Clarence. Great.

Now, it's on you.

Wonderful. And you see, with my radio, I'll be able to hear you. Now, you

understand?

Good. Okay, I'll get you your bone.

Here's your bone.

Now, if you hear anything, don't forget to growl.

All right?

Well, Nanny, how do you feel today?

Well, Mary to Dr. Tracy. Dad, this is Paula. Do you hear me?

Yes, Paula. What is it?

Dad, the emir is returning.

And even from here, I can tell he's breathing fire.

Try protocol. Ask him about his wives and children. That'll keep him busy for

about an hour or so.

What if he's not interested in family gossip?

Or have Judy and Clarence entertain him with card tricks or something.

Well, Judy and Clarence have already pulled a banishing act, and Clarence has

already walked off with one of our walkie -talkies.

In his mouth?

No, strapped around his neck.

Well, then call him and tell him to come back.

Dad, that won't work. I haven't pushed the transmit button.

He can't hear me, but I can hear him.

Well, okay, Paula.

Just try to think of something until I get back, huh?

Judy, is that you?

Cambia?

Jack, do you read me?

Yeah, Marsh. I just heard Clarence broadcasting over his walkie -talkie.

Marsh, Judy's there with him.

And so is Cambia.

Now look, all we have to do is rotate our antennas according to the direction

the volume.

Then we'll mark it on our maps, compare notes, triangulate, and we can zero in

on our troublesome trio.

Would you like another glass of tea, Your Excellency?

My dear young lady, there is a limit to tea and to patience.

Now, where is your father? And when may I see my cheetah?

Well, you see, he and Mike and Jack, they left early this morning on an

emergency. I insist upon seeing my cheetah.

But, Your Excellency, I am in charge here and I cannot allow you to enter the

dispensary. You are not the doctor. You are only his female child.

Now, please stand aside.

Your Excellency!

Boy,

am I glad to see you.

Oh, you see, Your Excellency, I told you there was nothing to worry about.

My dear, you are well again.

Now you shall race and win for me.

Thank you, Doctor. My many thanks.

You are most welcome, Your Excellency.

You know, like us filling in your little underground hideout, do you, cheetah

-napper? Oh, when I think of the trouble you caused, young lady, I'm tempted to

restrict you to a cage for a week.

Mike! Judy hadn't hidden Kumbia. Those new bully warriors might have killed

Now, she deserves a reward.

Hello there.

I say, where's Daktari?

He's out in the bush looking for poacher's pits.

Yeah, for us to fill in.

You know, Hedley, I think it ought to be your job to take care of those things

so that no more animals get trapped.

Or held captive in.

Hedley, don't you start picking on poor Judy.

She wasn't kidnapping. It was protective custody.

Well, anyway, it was the right medicine for Kimbeer.

I just got the news from the Emir.

Kimbeer won the race of the hunt beat.

How about that, huh?

Now he's got all those cattle and goats, and he's saved his face.

And you want something, too, Jack.

All of you.

Watershed rights in perpetuity to all the emirs' land abutting the reserve.

Which means that next dry season, all your animals can safely seek out new

waterholes without getting shot.

Well, Judy, I guess all the animals owe you a debt.

You did a job for me, too. Judy, front and center. Copy that.

That's the way.

Smart thing now. Stand up, Judy.

All right.

Now, chin up. Chin up, Judy.

Tummy in.

Chest out.

That's the way. Face the front.

Attention.

Halt.

Now, Judy.

As service is rendered, I hereby appoint you Deputy Volunteer Ascari.

Salute!

That's the way, Judy.

Nice.
