Thank you.

Okay, Charlie.

Supper time.

Hi, sorry I'm late.

No problem.

Where'd you leave Paula?

Oh, she decided to stay in Nagoro to do
a little more research, which means...

We do our own cooking, and I can set one
less plate.

That's right.

She sure has become attached to that
zebra.

A little too attached, I'm afraid.

Yes, that is a problem.

I, um... I spotted a herd of zebra on
the way in.

You really do have a problem.

Telling her she's going to lose him
won't be easy.

No, it won't.

And I want you to grow up big and
strong.

You've got to finish your supper.

Supper time.

Where? There.

I don't see anything.

Oh, it's gone now.

But I really saw it.

Saw what?

A tiger.

A tiger?

You mean Sarang?

Well, honey, that's nothing to get
excited about. Sarang's liable to wander

anyplace. But it wasn't Sarang.

Sarang and Prince are eating right over
there.

So they are.

Hey, small fry.

I'm afraid what you saw could not have
been a tiger.

Tigers live in Asia, not Africa.

You see, Sarang was brought here as a
cub all the way from India.

But it sure didn't look like a tiger.

Well, honey, sometimes late in the day,
the sunlight can play tricks on you.

It can?

Sure can.

Oh.

Why don't you go on in now and get
washed for dinner?

Okay.

Do you mind? My dinner's getting cold.

Want some coffee? There's plenty left.

No, thank you.

It feels like rain, doesn't it?

Barometer's been dropping all day.

We could sure use it.

Bushes like tinder.

Gosh.

Isn't it about time you took Jenny in?

Yes, about.

You haven't figured it out yet, have
you?

Figure what out?

How to tell Jenny about the zebra herd?

No, not exactly.

Far be it from a bachelor like me to
give advice, but the longer you wait,

more difficult it's going to be for both
of you.

Yes, I know, Mike.

How do you tell a seven -year -old who's
fallen in love with an animal that that

animal is now old enough and wants to
return to a herd?

Well, the rain's going to hit in a
minute.

I better check the windows in the
clinic.

Where do you think you're going, young
lady, huh?

I've got to cover Charlie so he won't
get wet.

Oh, you can't do that. Come on, I want
you to get back to bed.

What if Charlie's stripes wash off?

Now, Jennifer, you know better than
that. Please, Dr. Roy. Look, I promise

he's going to be perfectly all right.
Now, after all, animals belong outside.

Come on, let's get back into bed.

Come on.

Get in.

There you go.

There we are.

Doctor, would you kiss me goodnight?

Of course I'll kiss you goodnight,
honey.

Jenny.

Well, I'm glad you asked that, honey.

You see, animals belong outside because
Mother Nature has made allowances for

them.

What's allowances mean?

Allowances?

Well, allowances mean that animals can
get along in the bush because the bush

their home.

Wind, rain,

heat, the herds that they move with, the
free and open

country. All this is very, very
important to them.

It's part of their life.

That's why a little rain doesn't bother
them at all.

But Charlie's afraid of lightning and
thunder.

Oh.

He'll learn to adjust.

As long as he has friends, he'll be
perfectly happy.

Then he'll be happy here as I am.

Because Toto and Judy and me, we're his
friends.

Thanks for telling me.

Would you kiss me goodnight again?

Yeah, sure.

Good night.

Good night.

Now, just a minute, you two.

Please,

Doctor, let them stay just this once.

They're frightened.

Well, all right. But you two better
behave yourselves or out you go.

Good night. Good night.

just never learn to adjust.

I'll take Charlie to your house so he
won't get wet anymore.

Oh, I see.

Honey, did you ever think that maybe you
weren't being fair to Charlie?

Why?

Well, one of these days, Charlie won't
have a family of his own.

But I am Charlie's family, and he needs
us.

Well, he did when we found him, honey,
because he was sick. But now he's all

well, and he's old enough to join a
herd.

You mean leave us?

Yes, honey.

When animals grow up, they need to make
it on their own, just like people.

But I love Charlie, and I wouldn't want
him to leave me ever.

Well, honey, if we really love someone,
we want to do what's best for them,

don't we?

You wouldn't want me to leave, would
you?

Of course I wouldn't want you to leave,
honey.

One of these days, you know, you're
going to want to leave.

You'll want to get married and have a
family.

Oh, but honey, that's a happy time, not
a sad one.

Oh, having someone to love is just about
the greatest thing in the world.

You mean like you love me?

Exactly. Just like I love you.

George, you certainly did.

Uh, Jenny, go find Mike and tell him to
bring the dart rifle, and then go stay

in the clinic, right?

Okay.

Glad we didn't have to use this.

You know, it's amazing the way she just
followed you into that cage.

Well, we were pretty good friends at one
time.

I'm surprised she was able to survive
all those years in the bush and stay

unseen.

Well, Mike, as you know, I've been
worrying and wondering about her for

years.

Well, the only hope I had for her was
the fact that Tiger's a notorious loner.

The big question now is why did she come
back to a man?

Well,

it can't be for a handout. She hasn't
touched her food.

Could it be she has an affinity for this
area?

Yeah, it could be.

But why now, after all these years?

Got me.

Hey, uh, I understand you guys had a
surprise visitor.

Well, as a matter of fact, we do.

Meet Serena.

As a matter of fact, she is.

Yeah, she must have had a long walk all
the way from India.

Okay. Okay, I give up.

What's a Bengal tiger doing in the
middle of Africa?

A few years ago, a friend of mine from
Calcutta sent us two tiger cubs so that

we could observe their reactions and
adaptability to an alien environment.

And we made home movies.

How you doing? Fine. That's all set.

Yay.

Well, that's Serene, the male, the one
you know.

And then there's Serena.

Well fed, weren't they? Uh -huh.

They ate us out of house and home.

It sure didn't take long for their
personalities to develop.

Just like children, they were always
getting into trouble.

We took them on a surprise visit to
Chief Papuba's village. Unfortunately,

forgot about those chickens.

The feathers really flew that day.

As good as he never caught up with any.

Hey, watch this now, Bart. They decide
to go after Bigger Game.

Hey, it's a wonder one of the cubs
didn't get hurt.

Well, you know, it was rather
interesting. They instinctively avoided

lethal front kick by attacking from
behind.

Yeah, so I see.

And now look, this is their first
encounter with Judy.

All right, Mike, but which one's Judy?

The one on the left.

You see, she was as independent then as
she is now.

Keep your eye on that other chimp,
Doris.

Hey, she's deserting her pal, Judy.

Yeah, but that didn't bother Judy much.

I'll tell you, it looks like the Cubs
met their match.

It sure did.

Oh, Serena, by the way, became quite a
swimmer.

Sarang, however, just preferred to sit
on the sidelines and watch.

And you'd never catch a lion cub doing
that.

Oh, Serena loved to chase ducks.

And she certainly is more adventurous
than old Sarang.

Yes, and like all females, she matured
faster.

And became more independent.

Ah, just like all women, huh, boys?

Yes, all right.

As a matter of fact, she even developed
an interest in boys.

In this case, it was that lion cub there
named Jumbo.

All right, all right. How long did this
romance last?

Well, not too long, I'm afraid.

We'd been treating Jumbo's mother, and
when she recovered, we sent them both

back to their pride.

And Serena?

She was in this jungle for quite a
while.

And then she got sick about six months
later.

What's wrong with her?

She had a lung infection.

As a matter of fact, we almost lost her.

You know, I don't think Marsh left her
side once for over a week.

Well, I'll tell you, I was plenty
scared, that's for sure.

Oh, here's Serena about a year after the
operation.

She grew a lot in a year.

Hey, you two seem friendly enough.

Oh, yes, we became great pals.

Well, shortly after we shot that
particular piece of film, as a matter of

she disappeared.

We tracked her as far as Lake Tyva, but
unfortunately lost her score.

Yes, and the rain didn't help.

Watched the tracks off completely.

You mean that's the last you ever saw
her?

Mm -hmm. That's right. She appeared on
that note three years later.

You know, that explains the visitor, but
why the visit?

Bet? It's still a mystery.

And not a simple one.

Well, I've got to pick up some clients
in Nagoro.

Business seems to be booming for you
nowadays.

Well, you have to admit, it's not every
day you get a mystery guest

like Serena. No, Fred, it isn't.

How long are you going to be gone,
anyway?

A week, ten days. This group's only
interested in photographing elephants.

I didn't know there was a good -sized
herd that moved in near Mazima Falls.

Yeah, yeah, I heard about them. That
sounds good.

Well, good luck with Serena. I'll see
you guys in a couple of weeks.

Right.

Good luck on your safari.

Come on, Serena.

Be a good girl and eat. You must be
hungry.

And remember when you ate us out of
house and home and cried for more?

Well, come on. Do it again.

Seems to me as if she just wants out.

But then why would she come back and
follow you right into the cage?

Beats me.

Well, one thing we're certain, we can't
let her starve herself to death.

Marsh, do you think it's possible she
came back because of Sarang?

Let's bring them down here and see what
happens.

That's why they call them the friendly
giant.

Because they like all the animals. And
especially chimps.

So you see.

Come on. Come on, boy. Easy, easy.

Come on, Sarai. Come on.

Come on, Sarai. Come on.

Come on, boy.

Well, so much for that idea.

She sure wants no part of them, all
right.

It's funny. Sarang wants to be friendly.

That's not helping.

Better get Sarang out of here.

All right.

What's wrong with Serena, Dr. Arnie?

I don't know, Arnie.

came to say hello. Why is she so
unhappy?

She could have come back by accident.

But you don't think it was an accident,
do you?

No, honey, I don't think it was an
accident.

I think it was more than that.

Well,

Marsh, what do we do now?

She won't eat, she won't drink, and if
she doesn't soon, you know what that

means.

Yes.

Plus the fact she obviously wants out of
there.

Mike, the only thing I can think of to
do is to release her and track her.

What do you think?

I agree.

I'll get your equipment. Do you want
some company?

No, I think the less company, the
better.

Right.

Oh, Mike, grab my hat on the way, will
you?

Why aren't tigers in Africa?

Well, I suppose it's because Mother
Nature thought they would like Asia a

Well, if tigers like Asia, why don't
I... Look, honey, I'll explain later.

now, I want you to go into the house and
stay there until Mike comes and gets

you. But can I watch?

No, no, honey. I want you to go in the
house. Now, go on. Hurry up. Pacey,

Pacey.

Here you are, Marsh. Oh, thanks, little
buddy.

I'll get the door. All right.

Oh, uh, be careful. That little section
with Sarang may carry over to you.

Oh.

She was anxious enough to get away, all
right.

Yeah, at the rate she's going, you'll be
lucky if she pauses at Timbrook, too.

Marsh, look.

She came back.

Yes, but why?

Do you see her?

Yes, I see her.

Come here.

She's waiting for you.

She wants me to follow her.

Well, that answers a few questions.

Yes, a few.

Keep in touch, Marsh.

And I'll be in Scotland before you.

For me and my true love will never meet
again.

On the bonnie, bonnie banks of the

Manor.

That's Hedley!

You feed Charlie, okay, Judy?

Hi, Heather. Gee, I'm glad to see you.

Good morning, Jenny, love.

And I'm equally delighted to see you.

Well, don't I get my good morning kiss?

There we go.

One for you and one for me.

Your mustache always tickles.

Oh, Jenny.

But that's the secret of my charm.

I must say, I was quite a ladies' man in
my time, especially when I was with His

Majesty's forces in the RAF in India.

Yes, indeed, those were the days. I must
say, Jenny, although I shouldn't, I cut

quite a dashing figure then.

Were you dashing after tigers?

Tigers? Well, don't they have tigers in
India?

Oh, yes, yes, of course. Of course they
do.

Um, now tell me, Jenny, love, is Daktari
busy at the moment?

He's not here.

Oh. He's dashing after a tiger.

I see, yes, it's quite the proper thing
to do around here.

It's a pity, though, because I had a bit
of good news for him.

Mike's here?

Oh, is he good?

Well, then I can get a cup of tea.

Now, Jenny, when you see Daktari, remind
me to tell him that if he's still

looking for a herd of zebra, I saw just
the ticket the other day.

What's wrong with a herd of zebra?

Oh, girl, you're certainly making it
easy for me.

Don't worry, I'm coming.

I wouldn't hold you up for all the tea
in Adley's cupboard.

Molly doesn't want to join her herd.

How would you like it, Judy, if you were
taken away from Toto?

Won't be for the moon.

Is this the end of the trail?

Well,

this is where you've been hiding out.
You certainly picked a good secluded

I wonder if no one saw you.

Now all I have to do is figure out why
you brought me here.

Wait a moment, I have an idea. a clue.

Well, if this isn't one for the...

Well,

Serena.

It certainly clears up our little
mystery.

I wonder why you were so frantic to get
out of that cage.

Oh, easy.

So that's why Jenny was so upset.

Well, I certainly wish Marsh had
informed me.

This is Marsh Tracy calling Romero.
Marsh calling Romero. Do you read, over?

I say, old man, you're a bit... Mike
here, Marsh. Found anything?

Yes.

A cub?

That's right. A liger cub.

What on earth's a liger?

It's a cub whose father's a lion, the
mother's a tigress.

By Jove, that's a rare find.

Mike, is Hedley there with you?

Yes, he is.

Oh, good.

Now listen carefully.

The cub has a severe pulmonary
condition, possibly pneumonia. We're

have to get him to the clinic right away
and start him on sulfonamides.

So ask Hedley to stay with Jenny and get
out here as fast as you can.

Where are you? Well, you know that
fallen tree area about six miles west of

Tyva? Yes, I know the area.

Well, I'm about, oh, I'd say about 200
yards south of that.

Now, bring along about 200 milligrams.

Marsh, I don't read you. Could you
repeat the last part of your message?

Marsh, I don't read you.

Marsh,

do you read me?

I've got trouble.

The father just showed up.

Get here fast, will you?

Did he say the father turned up?

Look after Jenny.

You're Jamba.

I remember that lopsided ear.

Yes, but I don't imagine you remember
me, so just take it easy, Jamba.

Just take it easy.

No, nobody's going to hurt your cup.

So really, help me.

Just a little stiff and sore and hurts
all over.

Marsh,

you know, you really are very lucky.

Yes, yes, I know.

How's the cut?

Oh, I think he's going to come along
flying. He's responding well to the

Well, then, it would appear the crisis
is over. I'm going to go tell Charlie.

Oh.

It would appear the crisis is not over.

Yes, I'm afraid Charlie's our next
crisis, all right.

Marsh, why don't you wait for a bit? A
few days can't make any difference.

Here, let me give you a hand. No, I'm
all right.

meet again on the bonnie, bonnie banks
of Womero.

Morning, Adeline. Oh, Marsh.

I was just adjusting my mirror. Yes, I
know. Say, you're in a good voice this

morning. Yes, there's nothing like a
song for brightening up the day, isn't

there?

Marsh, you wouldn't say I was tone deaf,
would you?

Hey, by the way, Hadley, you know
something? You're just in time. We're

release that liger cub today.

Oh, the little fellow's better, is he?
I'm so glad.

By the way, Marsh, are there many of
these liger cubs born?

Oh, yes, there's, as a matter of fact,
quite a few.

Of course, not in the bush, only in
captivity or zoos.

I say, Marsh, about Jenny and her pet
zebra.

Is she ready to give him up?

No, it doesn't look that way, Hedley.

You know something? I was so sure that
Serena and her cub would convince her

that Charlie would be so much happier
out there in the bush without her.

Well, as the herd's likely to move on
any time, it doesn't look as if you've

any choice.

Yes, I do.

I'd rather keep Charlie than her, Jenny.

Well, he's ready and willing.

Okay, let's take him to the truck.

Here, I'll take him. All right.

Bosh, I don't think the truck will be
necessary. Look.

Isn't this a bit sticky? I mean, after
all, Marsh did tangle with... Only

because Jumbo sensed harm to the cub.
But now, look.

Charlie, so I have to make allowances.

Marsh. I say, you know, the most
interesting things do go on around here.

Huh?
