Gorilla and the other little animals are going to bring us a fortune.

Wait a minute. There they are.

Get them.

You can't go. You've got to stay here with Clarence.

All right, you all set?

All set.

It's in an awful hurry.

Yeah, I wonder what's up.

Thank goodness I caught you in time. Where are you off to?

Well, Mike and I were just on our way over to the Watauga village.

Seemed to surprise cows about to give birth.

Well, I'm afraid Mike will have to do the midwife on us.

I want you to help me investigate a death.

A death? Yes, two gorillas.

Adult, male and female.

Now, the natives spotted their bodies in a gorge in the Ogoro area, but they

wouldn't go near them.

Oh, I don't blame them. They'd just be courting trouble with the rest of the

gorilla family.

Well, if there's disease, there's always a possibility of contagion.

I'm all provisioned for a two -day trip. I know it's an imposition. No, not at

all. Gorillas are rapidly becoming a disappearing breed.

That's splendid. Well, shall we get cracking, then? Yeah.

Oh, well, Mike, could you leave that note for Paul and Jack? Oh, take it

careful. Okay.

Judy, Judy, Judy, listen.

I know you're from the same family as the gorillas, but they're far too big

dangerous for you.

No, you stay here with players and guard the compound.

Oh, and Judy, listen.

When Paul and Jack get back, I want you to have them read that note, okay?

This map shows there's an old road around here.

I hope nobody spots us.

Oh, he's gone.

Oh, fine.

Why were you driving so fast? Look, Vera, any time a rhino charges me, I'm

driving fast. Besides, I wanted to make the border before somebody stopped us.

Well, you stopped us, but good.

That little gorilla was worth $6 ,000.

Maybe more.

All right, all right. But with a rhino roaming around loose out there, I ain't

about to go out looking for any gorilla.

Now, the map shows that the Wamiru compound is just up the road.

They'll help us find the little gorilla.

Why should they help us?

Well, according to their reputation, any friend of an animal is the friend of

theirs. Yeah, well, I think we ought to stay away from any place like that. No,

Albie. If that little gorilla is still alive, the people at Wamaru will find it

for us.

You see, my husband and I are on an animal purchasing expedition for the Mid

-Continent Wildlife Federation.

Mid -Continent Wildlife?

I've never heard Dad talk about it. He knows everyone in the field.

Yeah, well, that's probably because it's new and privately endowed.

We're pretty much like your compound was when it first started.

We bought the cutest little two -year -old gorilla from a native up in the

hills.

Here's the receipt, such as it is.

You want some more?

Give me a kiss.

That's it.

There you go.

Unfortunately, the little gorilla got away from us over here in the Itobie

District. Since that's practically your backyard, we thought, well, perhaps you

could help us find him. I think the best bet would be to break up into two

parties. One of us can take this Lake Nyungo area.

The other one leads you to the foothills.

If that doesn't work out, we'll try this conduit area on foot later.

Fine. Well, now that makes sense, Mr. Dane.

But suppose that I ride with you and Albie can drive Miss Tracy.

That way, no one gets lost.

Good idea. I'll go get the equipment.

All right.

Judy, did Dad leave a message for me?

This is Walmero Compound calling Officer Headley. Come in, please.

This is Paula Tracy at Walmero. Is Officer Headley there?

I'm sorry, Miss Tracy. Officer Headley is left on a trip.

Well, how long will he be gone?

Two days.

Well, if you're ready to use him, please have him contact me. It's very urgent.

Over and out.

And, Jess, who were you calling?

I was trying to reach Officer Headley. I thought he might know something about

Dad and Mike. Oh, here, let me help you with that.

Greatest of pleasure.

No, no, Judy. Today, you stay home.

Why can't she go with us?

Well, you see, I have a little experiment in mind.

When we find that young gorilla, wild, straight out of the jungle, the first

thing I'm going to do is put him into a controlled environment.

Then we'll introduce a trained animal like Judy, and we'll be able to record

photograph that first meeting.

The whole thing is going to be done just as Marsh would like it, under

laboratory conditions.

Well, I guess you're right, Dr. Freud. Of course.

But do you think the potters will go along with your experiment?

Yeah, I think so.

They're animal -oriented people.

Well, sorry, Judy. You heard the professor.

See you later.

All set, folks.

Here's a canteen and a pair of binoculars. Oh, thank you.

Well, ready to go, Jack?

Miss Potter?

Here are your papers, Miss Potter.

Anything? No, I don't see him.

Me neither.

Well, let's go find your husband and see what he dug up.

Sorry, Mr. Potter. Oh, look, we searched the whole lake area.

Well, suppose we go back to the compound for some dinner and then discuss your

plans. It'll be dark in a couple of hours anyway.

Thanks, dear. I could use some food.

I hope that gorilla finds a safe place to sleep tonight.

He'll be okay.

Hey, Mr. Potter, give me a hand flipping them over, huh? One, two, three, flip.

Whoa, thank you.

I've got to check this bandage. He's not exactly cooperative, as you can see.

Usually Dr.

Tracy and his assistant, Mike McCooler, do this circle flipping bit.

But the strange thing is they both went off and didn't leave any message.

Don't get the idea that Dr. Tracy is the absent -minded professor type. He's

really not.

The native chief told us that your doctor has a special interest in

Oh, yeah. He's a bear on gorillas.

You seem to know quite a bit about them yourself.

Well, not really.

Which is why I'd kind of like to find that baby gorilla of yours and give him

few tests before Marsh gets back. Or before you two take him away.

I was kind of wondering if... The answer is yes.

That's the least we can do to repay you.

Great. Both Dad and Jack like to compete to see who can train animals in new

skills.

Well, when you find that little gorilla, you can teach him to stay in his cage.

Well, that might be a matter of taming him first and training him later.

I thought we had the little rascal under control, but I guess we didn't.

Judy, you're not supposed to ride him that way. Get off.

Hey, where were you when he had to be flipped?

Don't you think you people have overdone the affection training bit with that

little chimp?

Well, I admit she is spoiled, but she is the smartest animal in the compound.

That she is.

Which is why I hope you find that baby gorilla tomorrow.

I can't wait to see him meet Judy face to face.

Ready to reflip? Ready.

One, two, three, throw!

Well,

a success.

don't want to stay overnight.

No, thanks, Jack.

I don't want to wear out our welcome.

You couldn't do that, I promise.

Besides, sitting folks like us, like, sleeping in the bushes is a real thrill.

Uh, we'll pitch a tent down the road at the Wamuru Crossing and get an early

start in the morning.

Say, Jack, do you suppose you could help us with a search in the morning?

Oh, well, I'd love to, but now with Marsh and Mike gone, I've got all these

animals to check, and Paula has her vegetable garden.

Yeah, I'm raising special vegetables for the animals in the nursery. And a cheap

cook and bottle washer.

Tell you what, though.

We should be through by noon. If you haven't found them, we'll join you then.

Oh, fine.

Oh, Mr. Tracy and Jack, you've been extremely kind and we appreciate it.

Vera and I will continue the search on our own and we'll check in with you

later. Great.

Hey, wait a second.

Take this with you. If you find any trace of the gorilla, give us a call.

All right, I'll do that.

Well, I hope that little gorilla doesn't have too tough a time out there in the

bush.

Hey, would you believe Judy ate up every last piece of fruit?

What an appetite.

There was enough fruit in there to feed two people.

Oh, brother.

I wonder who did it. I bet Judy did. She's probably trying to get back at us

not taking her yesterday.

No, not vegetables.

She's on a fruit and nuts kick this week.

What about Clarence?

Scratch Clarence. He's meat and potatoes.

Well, then, M .O .D .O .K.

M .O .D .O .K.? You see elephant footprints?

Hey, look here.

Our vegetable vulture is a pretty sloppy thief.

He left a trail behind him.

Sure looks like amateur night.

Hey, look here.

Tooth marks.

Could be a dog.

Jack,

do you walk in your sleep at night?

Yeah, I might be, but I don't chew carrots at the same time. Come on.

What has Judy got in there?

I'll be.

It's Potter's gorilla.

Well, Judy, why didn't you tell us you had a house guest?

Shh.

Yeah.

Okay, we won't disturb your guests.

Oh, I love you. I don't know how you did it, but boy, did you do us a favor.

What a find.

Poor helpless little fella.

Helpless? Did you see those muscles? He's probably stronger than Samson.

That's not a bad name for him.

Samson. Call him Sam for short.

All right, call him anything you want, but lock him up in a cage.

He might wreck this compound.

Oh, Judy.

You can't let him run free. He doesn't know his own strength.

Hey, Judy.

Well, Judy, what are you going to do with a stubborn zookeeper, huh?

I'm not stubborn, and I'm not a zookeeper.

Judy, you warned him.

Well, very good. There is item one for my report.

She just proved my theory on animal -to -animal communication by being able to

reach him.

I just hope she sent him back to his family and not the Potters. Well, why

He's their property.

I'll let Hiddly answer that one.

Well, one way or the other, we've got to find Sam.

Boy, easy.

Nobody's going to hurt you.

There you go.

We're giving you the royal suite.

Ah, well, my golly, there he is.

Sam, old buddy, we're going to make scientific history.

You know, that little fellow's going to give me enough material to write the

definitive paper on gorilla behavior.

Boy, have you gone ape over that silly -looking gorilla.

Well, you'd think it was King Kong where you're making such a fuss over him.

Well, what do you expect me to do, hand them over to the potters?

Well, of course not. I don't think he even belongs to them.

Hey, do me a favor. Stand next to him. Go ahead.

Go on.

Kitty, do you see it? A strong family resemblance.

You know, you two could be brothers.

Of course.

Darwin said it a long time ago.

Ellie? Huh?

Here they are.

Marsh, look.

Well, the natives were right.

Two dead gorillas.

But what they didn't know was that somebody shot them.

But why?

It's obvious they weren't after the meat.

But gorillas don't attack unless they're provoked.

I wonder what could have provoked them.

That mystery, my dear Daktari, is what I hope you can help me solve.

Of course I left a note.

I stuck it right up... Here.

I'll bet Judy threw it away.

Where is she?

At the moment, she's over there, working out with the most important animal

subject ever to hit this compound.

Where did you get him?

Well, he belongs to a couple named the Potters.

They lost him.

Judy found him.

How did they get him?

They said from a native. At least they had a receipt for whatever it was worth.

Why something wrong the reason doctor is not here is that Hedley took him to the

Agoura mountains to investigate the death of two adult gorillas Michael

hundreds of gorillas roaming the hills. How can you be sure there's a

connection? I can't but there's no harm in trying to find out Well Merrill

calling officer Hedley well Merrill calling officer Hedley Hedley. Do you

me?

They're probably out of range Mike, I was suspicious too, so I tried

Hedley and they hadn't heard from him either.

You two are a bunch of worry warts anyhow.

I'm more concerned with starting Sam on his tests.

Believe me, when Marsh gets back, I'll show him a thing or two about gorillas.

Well, the porters had better show Hedley something too.

What's that?

An authentic government permit to capture that baby gorilla.

What should we do?

Well, let's see. Keep him in protective custody and out of the porter's hands

until Dr. Henry and Hedley return.

But protective custody does not prohibit a little experimentation.

Shall we? Uh -huh.

It's no use, Albie.

Let's go back to Romero and get Jack to help us.

Now, Sam, we want to find out how much you know.

So just sit right here and stay put, understand?

Stay there.

Now, young fella, we're going to test your sense of rhythm.

Okay, Sam.

Now. Hit the drum.

Just like this.

Go on.

Hit it.

That's it. Hit it.

Hit it.

The drum.

Judy,

no. Jack's testing Sam's reaction to sound, not yours. Now you just sit there

and be quiet.

Oh, Clarence, you can't go any closer.

If that gorilla gets your scent, he'll become terrified. That would spoil

test. We'll watch from here.

Hey, Sam, get back up here.

We're testing your drumming, not your cat dancing.

Hey, how about that, Clarence?

That Sam's a real swinger.

Hey, Paula, he's got a great way out beat.

Sure, give him dark glasses, a guitar, he can start his own group, the one

they're obese.

Look, if the two of you will save your corny comedy routine for a later date,

we'll continue what is supposed to be a scientific experiment.

Yes, sir, professor, sir.

Subject struck percussion instrument.

Rude rhythmic cadence revealing primitive musical potential.

Usable talent lies in another area.

Jack, since Sam is so recently out of the bush, he may not be tuned in on you

yet. Why not try to reach him through Judy?

What's the problem?

Okay, Judy, now show Sam how to use this.

That's good.

Now, Sam, just like Judy showed you.

There you go.

No, don't eat it.

Give it here.

Subject scored a scientific first.

Devoured test materials.

Jack, maybe Sam's trying to tell you something. Like, how about chow now?

All righty. Next test, feeding habits of gorilla in captivity.

And to show you how quickly we adapt...

Try and hold it yourself.

That's a boy. Both hands.

Good boy.

Come on, Sam, not the straw. Here, give it to me.

Tracy,

make a note.

Subject drank milk through a straw, just like a child.

In the gorilla world, he's more of a juvenile.

Oh, so that explains his wrecking my garden. He's a juvenile delinquent.

So, they found the baby gorilla after all.

Let's go in and get him.

Not so fast, Albie.

I have a sneaky feeling that Paul is on to us.

If we go down there now, we might walk into a trap.

What are we going to do?

Wait. Take our own time.

Then we go after the jackpot.

We take the gorilla, plus the chimp, and some of the baby animals.

Well, it isn't going to be easy here.

Albie, it wasn't easy to take the gorilla away from his parents, but we

Same method might work here, too, if necessary.

Those are the footprints of a young gorilla.

Are you sure?

Yep.

And look.

Tire tracks.

Moving away.

Yeah, made by a heavy vehicle.

Probably a truck.

Well, old chap, what do you make out of all this?

Well, all I can suggest is that some hunters were attacked by the adult

gorillas, killed them, discovered the baby, and took it with them.

Or the reverse.

What do you mean?

Some poachers were after a live baby gorilla, were surprised by the parents,

killed him.

I think we'd better make inquiries at all the villages and see if they've

spotted anyone in a truck with a baby gorilla.

I think you've got an idea.

Okay,

Sammy.

Let's see how colors appear.

This next experiment is very colorful.

Jack is trying to discover how Sam feels deep down inside.

That is, whether his emotions are hostile or passive.

Oh, no, Sam, don't eat that, too.

enjoyed all colors.

I think he's beginning to get the idea.

His middle name should have been Rembrandt.

Sampson?

Rembrandt? Gorilla? Hey, that's not bad.

Hey, look, an inspiration.

Hmm.

Um, hey, let's try it this way.

Yeah.

Now you're a critic.

Oh, what kind of an artist is Sam?

Well, he's original.

He's primitive.

He's no Van Gogh.

I don't think his middle name is Rembrandt either.

Well, maybe all his testing's confused him. He probably doesn't even know where

he is.

How may be?

Okay, let's take him back to the animal world and see how he does.

prove something, don't you? Mm -hmm. That Prince is a very tolerant dog.

Okay, wise guy.

We'll try something bigger.

I'd say poor Sam's had it for the day.

You better let him get a good night's rest or you're going to wind up with an

erotic gorilla on your hands.

Oh, that's the worst kind to have around the house, huh, Judy?

That's funny we haven't heard from the Potters all day.

My sentiments exactly. You know, I think we ought to post a guard.

Who's going to stand the first watch?

Well, Clarence, of course. And the second and third watchers, too.

We can't go in there tonight. They got a lion guarding that gorilla cage.

One lion?

You can take that moth -eaten rug with one shot.

At night?

If I missed, you'd be all over me before I could get off a second shot. Besides

the noise, it'd wake up the whole household.

The household is very much awake right now.

Mike is on the walkie -talkie.

Go get ours.

Yes, Doctor, we read you, but very faintly. Where are you? We're a camp

Milwaukee Village.

Mike, we found those two gorillas that we went out to investigate.

They've been murdered.

Shot by two hunters.

Murdered? Does Headley have any clues as to the identity of the hunters?

Yes, he has reason to believe that it was done by a man and a woman, not

strangers. The natives saw a baby gorilla in a cage in the back of a truck

driven by this man and woman.

Doctor, we have that baby gorilla here at the compound.

And Jack and Paula have seen that man and woman.

And Mr. and Mrs. Albert Potter, we know where they are.

Tomorrow morning at sunrise, we'll surprise them at their campsite.

Tell them not to take any chances.

Now, Mike, don't take any chances.

Don't worry, Doctor. We'll have Clarence with us. Besides, they don't suspect

anything.

Okay, Roger. I understand.

I'll check back with you later.

They'll surprise us.

Those jokers will have a surprise of their own come tomorrow morning.

You stay here with Sam. We don't want him to be lonely.

Judy, do you hear me? I want you to go over to Sam's cage and be a good friend.

Hey, well, isn't that just great?

They vacated the premises and took that watchdog lion with them.

Hey, Vera, did they take that stupid chimp, too?

Well, I didn't see her in the truck. They must have left her behind.

And she's not stupid, Albie. She's very clever.

She and the gorilla and the other little animals are going to bring us a

fortune. Well, a small one, maybe.

Albie, we're going in there and make a real killing.

There's the baby gorilla.

Come on, get him.

That's not the gorilla.

That's the chimp.

Well, get her anyhow.

Looks like they had breakfast and took off. Are they headed for the compound?

No.

The tire tracks lead in the opposite direction.

Would they leave without Sam?

They would if they were in danger of being arrested.

Well, they're gone.

Let's get back.

No, Vera.

This trip's going to be a lot less trouble than I thought it would be.

How's that?

Well, with something as rare as a baby gorilla, the authorities would have

questioned us. But who's going to care about an ordinary -looking chimp and an

assortment of baby animals?

What's wrong?

The lion, cubs, and bears are gone.

Uh -oh.

Oh, look.

Sam's cage is empty, too.

Where's Judy? She's gone.

Oh, that little minx.

Not only did she stage a cage rape, but she takes her only lions and cubs with

her. She really must have been sore at us. I didn't think she'd go this far,

though.

Wait till I get my hands on her.

Well, you're really going to be surprised when you see her, Dick.

Because not only did she kidnap the baby animals, along with Sam, she drove off

in a truck.

Whoever stole the animals drove right up to the cage in a truck. And the

footprints show it was a man and a woman. The Potters.

How'd they know we were suspicious?

Uh -oh.

I did it.

Generous Jack gave them the walkie -talkie.

Ah, they probably overheard my conversation with Doc Talley. That's why

campsite was deserted.

They drove out in the wrong direction and then doubled back.

Well, we better call Marsha and Henry.

Well, then, Jack, you think they're headed towards the Cuyunga River

Yeah. If they're headed for the border, that's the fastest way.

Okay, well, we'll do our best to intercept them.

Hey, Marsh, one thing.

Be careful, huh?

They've got the little gorilla and Judy with them.

Well, Jack, if I know Judy, right now she's up to some nifty of wherever she

I hope.

Why did you get off the main road?

Who'd be looking for us on a trail like this?

Look out!

My husband, he's hurt. Help him, Marsh.

All right, friend.

Back up nice and easy.

Hold it.

One move out of you and I'll put a bullet through your friend's head.

Like those two gorillas.

Yeah, like those two gorillas.

Drop that gun down in front of you.

Get it, Vera.

Over there.

I assume you have handcuffs?

Good. I want you to handcuff you and your friend to that tree over there.

And my wife and I will be on our way.

You know you'll be caught.

That's what all you policemen say.

You better do as he says.

Hmm?

He'd better do as he says.

Now, Judy, now.

Oh, come on. That gag is older than the hills.

Yeah, I guess you're right, but I don't blame you for trying.

Judy, come here. Come here.

Well, I'm glad to see you too, Judy.

Why, you two practically cleaned out my entire nursery.

I must say they were very clever.

And extremely efficient.

Wait a minute. They're not so efficient and clever.

That baby gorilla is missing.

That's odd.

Jack's every radio is to pick up their tracks, but the young gorilla was with

them. Well, Eddie, we've got to find that gorilla.

But, Marsh, finding a small animal in the bush without any clues, it's

practically impossible.

You know, Hedley, old chap, I have a distinct feeling that Judy heartily

disagrees with you.

Yes, honey.

Since Judy released the girl, we'll use her to track down Sam.

That baby girl is out there somewhere, and Judy will lead us to him.

Well, as near as I can figure, Judy saw the potters coming, so she let Sam out

of his cage so the potters wouldn't capture him. And she got captured

Those are Sam's tracks, all right.

What brought him here? This isn't gorilla country.

It is now.

Dad, I thought gorillas lived in the hills.

They do.

You think they're from the same band as Sam and his family?

Uh -huh.

They must have come down looking for them.

Dad, shouldn't we go after Sam? He might get hurt.

He'll be all right, Paula.

Let's just wait and see.

I guess old Sam's passed the test harder than any I could give him.

What's that?

Found his family.

Judy, Judy, wait.

You can't go with him.

No.

Listen, you've got your own family. Yes, you've got Paula, you've got Jack,

you've got Mike, you've got me.

And you've got Clem.

Well, don't look so dejected. We're not going to forget you.

No, we're not going to forget you. No.
