All language subtitles for The Life And Times Of Grizzly Adams S02E01

The story of Grizzly Adams is big and
powerful and beautiful.

They call me Mad Jack.

And me and my burro number seven have
been traipsing these slopes and valleys

for a long spell, so I know the story
from the beginning.

My friend Adams was accused of a crime
he didn't commit.

So he escaped into the mountains,
leaving behind the only life that he

knew.

Now, that wilderness out there ain't no
place for a greenhorn, and his chances

of surviving were mighty slim.

There was no time at all, for he was
beaten down, ragged, and nearly starved.

Long about then, he come upon a grizzly
bear cub, all alone and helpless.

Now, Adams knew that little critter
couldn't survive without his help, so he

started right down that cliff, risking
his own life.

To save it.

Now that cub took to Adams right off.

And that was when he discovered he had a
special kind of way with animals.

They just come right up to him like he
was a natural part of the wilderness.

But that bear cub, he was extra special.

As he growed, he became the best friend
Adams ever had. And together, they

became a legend.

Sometimes when something strange or new
happens, you don't know what to believe

or who to believe.

At times like these, I found out you
can't go wrong if you just believe in

yourself.

About the strangest experience I ever
had began the morning my greenhorn

James Adams was doing his spring
cleaning.

Well, are you going to sweep with that
broom or are you going to eat it?

Look at the mess you're making.

I'm going to have to make a brand new
broom.

Adams, Adams, you and Ben stop whatever
it is you're doing and get out of here

before it saves your lives. It's
happening. I tell you it's happening.

out before it's too late.

What's happening?

I've got to get a drink of water.

I'm telling you, my throat is that
parched from running up here to Warren.

Here you go, number seven.

Here you go, old partner.

If we go down, we're going to go down
together.

What in the world are you talking about?

There's people coming from the moon.

I saw this man from the moon riding
around in the sky.

Riding on a horse, probably.

No, he weren't riding no horse.

I tell you, it was a scout from the moon
riding a big round thing like it was

the moon itself.

With your own eyes, you seen it? With my
own eyes, and number seven seen it with

his eyes. Ain't that right, number
seven?

See there?

You know what it was?

It's a reflection from the sun off the
falls. That's all.

This weren't no reflection.

I tell you, what I seen were real.

Whatever it were, that's what it were.

Ben, you and I have been working pretty
hard this morning.

What say you and I take a little walk?

We were going to do that anyway.

You don't believe me, do you?

What makes you say that? Because if you
believe me, you'd be heading off in the

opposite direction, that's what.

Are you coming or not?

No, sir.

I'm not going out there with that thing
from the moon flying around in the sky.

Well, suit yourself.

Adams, if you see it, would you mind
warning the rest of the people? I tell

I'm just plumb tuckered out.

Oh, believe me, Jack, if I see any men
from the moon, I'll tell them.

You know, Number Seven, he's just a
plumb fool to go out there with that

No telling where it's going to land
next, why it could land... right

here at this cabin.

You know what?

Maybe we should let that greenhorn go
out there by itself. It ain't right for

to be here all safe and sound while he's
out there with that thing.

Now, I know how you feel, number seven.

No sense in feeling scared. We just got
to think of other folks instead of

ourselves.

Get out there and protect him.

I didn't rightly know whether Adams
believed me or not.

But since I was the one who seen it,
I...

figured it was my duty to protect Adams
and Ben from whatever that thing were.

When I seen Nekoma all excited like and
pointing up to the sky, I knew I wasn't

the only one who's seen what I seen.

Are you sure, Nekoma?

Yeah.

Now do you believe me?

I never said I didn't believe you, did
I?

But whatever was out there ain't out
there now, is it?

Well... We best be getting back to the
cabin.

Hey,

look. There he is.

I think that's the most beautiful sight
I've ever seen.

How can you stand there so calm when
that thing's a -floating around up there

maybe gonna destroy you?

Look at it up there, Jack. Just dancing
across the sky like a cloud. Ain't it

beautiful?

Just stand tight, Adams. I'll give it to
you.

No!

Now, what'd you do that for? I had it in
my sights.

What, are you crazy? You could have hurt
somebody.

Well, I'm sure somebody could have got
hurt. You. It was headed right... Eh?

I got it!

Beck. Beck. Wally.

Tacoma. Well, I know you got to tell
your people, but please tell them that

ain't nothing to be afraid of. It ain't
going to hurt them.

Where are we going?

I'm going to go see where I came down
at. Are you coming?

Well, sure I'm coming.

But I got a feeling we're both going to
be sorry we ever laid eyes on that

thing.

Hurry up, Jack. Over this way.

He's crazy.

There it is.

Look where it come to roost.

Whatever it is, it sure don't look well.

I'll get there.

Do not move.

Hello.

Which one of you savages shot at my
magnetic ballon?

Well, it couldn't have been us.

Because I'm the only one with a gun, and
I'm the only one that can't see

nothing. Isn't that right, Adams?

Adams? We're sorry for shooting your
balloon.

I'd like to apologize for it.

Apologies.

Apologies. Do not help my... my balloon.

Attention. Attention.

Monsieur. Monsieur.

No, no, no.

This is my friend. Don't shoot. This is
Ben.

Ben, we've been together a long time.

Look at him.

Your animal speaks.

I reckon in his own way.

But what chance have we against natives
who are befriended by the great beasts

of the wilderness?

Messieurs, we are at your mercy.

Permit me to introduce myself.

I am André Girard.

Ballon designer and master.

I am André Girard.

Ballon designer and master. You don't
seem too bad hurt, Jack.

He's looking kind of frail.

Everything's going to be all right,
little friend.

Oh, my dear.

I'm sorry, Mr. Trinard.

Jack and I and Ben only speak English.

American.

Everything's going to be just fine. It's
going to be all right.

Oh, no.

No, it is not fine.

It's not fine.

My beautiful balloon.

My queen de Paris.

She is...

Excuse me, Mr.

Girard. Girard. Girard. Andre, Andre.

Ain't you an awful long ways from home?

Monsieur, I am flying across your
country conducting an experiment for the

future. What kind of an experiment?

Monsieur, as you well know, people wait
months for their mail to come from one

point of this vast country to another.

Oh, but we fixed our land.

Well, we got the Pony Express now, and
it only takes weeks.

But suppose, suppose they can receive
the mail in

day. Ah, by my balloon, by air.

You mean mail by air?

You're going to fly this?

You wouldn't be able to do that in a
million years.

You may laugh, monsieur, but what may
seem insane in this century will seem

quite ordinary in the next.

Vraiment, hein?

That's a mighty nice rabbit you got
there, Mr. Andre.

Merci, monsieur, merci.

We and I have been, well, as you and Ben
have been, comrades.

We have been together since I have
become a balloonist.

Oh, mon cher, mon cher.

What have they done to you?

We were so beautiful together in our
triumph.

Until, until some savage, some barbarian
shut us down.

Mr. Andre, I apologize again.

What's done is done. Now we've got to
figure out how we can fix your balloon.

Fix it.

Fix it.

C 'est impossible, monsieur.

C 'est impossible.

C 'est fini, ce ballon.

Before we fix this balloon, we gotta
figure out some way to fix Mr. Andre.

Andre,

where do you get the hydrogen to fly
this balloon?

Oh, there are crews stationed all across
the country.

They have the hydrogen.

But the next station is very far away.

And if I do not arrive soon, they will
not wait.

And my journey... will be a failure.

Well, we may be here a long while.

There's just too many holes, Adams.

You know, it should be a shame to see
Andre fail, since it weren't his fault

landing here in the first place.

Well, it weren't my fault neither.

I mean, I would have missed him if he
hadn't hit the rifle.

Andre, is there anything besides
hydrogen that will get the Queen of

the air again?

No, absolutely not.

I would have to redesign the whole
balance.

Yes. Yes, it could be done.

It could be done.

Adams, Adams, there is another way.

A balloon will rise into the air when it
is filled with hot air.

Filled with what?

Air, air, hot.

We've got plenty of hot air here.

We've got the best hot air in this part
of the world, don't we, Jack? Yeah.

C 'est nécessaire que je pense.

I must think.

Ah, Louis. Viens ici. Viens ici, Louis.
Come.

Mr. Adams.

There is something wrong with Louis.

He's, uh... How do you say? Not himself
anymore.

What do you mean?

Je ne sais pas.

He's acting very mysterious.

He keeps disappearing.

He's moody.

His delightful little ears, they no
longer stand up.

I can understand that, Andre. It's all
new for Louis.

New people, new mountains, new scents.

Perhaps, messieurs.

Allons -y, Louis.

A promenade will do us both good.

You must think.

No.

He's never going to be able to fly that
contraption out of here.

You know how much that means to Andre.

He's got to fly it out of here.

And we're going to help him.

La ballon.

Andre must be in trouble. Come on, Jack,
let's go.

I'm with the Adams.

Where is he, Nekoma?

Where is he?

Come on down here, Andre.

This is a friend.

It's a friend of ours, Nekoma.

Oh, fishbush.

Friend.

American Indian. I have read it.

It's good to read, but it's a lot better
to know.

Now, come on down here right now.

Watch your step.

Watch the Indian.

Give me your leg.

Your leg, my leg.

Do not fret, monsieur.

Give me your hand. I'm afraid to let go.
How did you go? Up there anyway.

You got his hand?

Watch it, then.

Step on it.

Monsieur. Wait. Monsieur, I am going.

The other way.

Monsieur, Louis.

What is it?

Louis. Louis.

He was frightened.

He ran away.

We must find him.

Monsieur, we must find him.

Louis was just bewildered by this new
place he found himself in.

It was about as far from the sights and
sounds of Paris as a fellow could get.

And there were a few other things he
weren't likely to meet up with in France

either. Like a curious pair of mountain
lion cubs.

And of course, Lewis just had to learn a
lesson the hard way.

One was that every mother in the woods
protects her babies with a vengeance.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You're not alone, your future is bright.

Now I believe in experience and knowing
what you're doing.

But if you ain't got experience,

The next best thing is pure luck.

But luck has a way of running out.

Maybe it was just a question of time
before Lewis was to find that out.

For the time being, at least, Lewis's
luck seemed to be holding.

Andre. I know how much little Louie
means to you.

Nakoma here, he's been tracking rabbits
ever since he could walk.

I think between he and I and Ben, we can
find Louie before the day's over.

Merci. Merci, Nakoma.

Come on, Ben.

That's a nice balloon, Mr. Andre. But
where are you going to get all the hot

to fill there?

The fire pit.

But the problem is, how do we get the
hot air into the balloon?

Well,

we could use a bellows. A big bellows.
Just pump it in there. And we shall have

it. But we must have it soon.

the wrong rabbit.

Nicole and Adam found plenty of rabbits
that day, but Mary a hide in her hair of

Lewis.

Meanwhile, Andre and me was doing the
best we could do with what we had to

with. While Andre worked on the balloon
basket, I built us a fire pit.

Ah, ma chérie, soon you will be
beautiful again.

And you, and I, and Louis.

While Adams and the coma were still
searching, things was a -changing for

Louis.

Doing like rabbits do, he plucked out
tufts of his own hair to mark his new

home. The other animals had figured out
by now that he was a stranger.

And, well, they kind of adopted him and
helped him to set up housekeeping, so to

speak. And some just dropped by to sort
of check him out and say hello.

Don't be discouraged, Andre.

By not finding Louie, well, that means
maybe you just found a friend to help

out.

By the looks of things here, you and
Jack could use a couple friends to help

out.

Adams!

The queen is ready.

I think.

The fire pit ought to be hardened pretty
soon.

We'll fire up.

And away you'll go, Andre.

We have a great many problems, Adams.

I do not know.

Will the patches rot?

Will there be enough out there in the
balloon to keep me aloft?

Pish posh.

I simply do not think we can do it.

Andre.

Take a look off over there.

See those bees?

Well, they aren't supposed to fly.

Their wings are too small.

But look at them buzzing off up in the
air, just as pretty as you please.

You know why?

Nobody ever told them they couldn't fly.

They just believe they can.

You know what I mean?

And so shall I. And so shall I.

Buckle up here.

Let's stoke her up.

If you were only here to share this
moment of shall I share.

Whatever else Louie were, he sure
weren't lonely.

It seemed like every animal of the
forest had to stop by and visit a spell.

Each in his own way, of course.

Nicoma, Ben, Number 7, and me pitching
in to help Andre.

While some of our animal friends watched
the proceedings, we was able to pump

enough hot air into that there balloon
to fill it. And like Adam said, it was a

beautiful thing to see.

Teach him and you'll teach him. Isn't
that wonderful?

Oh, it's beautiful, Andre.

Your ear looks a lot bigger than she
does when she's laying around on the

ground.

Where'd you put my knife, man?

Here it is.

Jack, get away.

No, no. Stay away.

He's no safe zone.

Andre, do something.

I can't even see.

Adam!

Hey, let me out of here. Jack!

Andre!

Jump, Jack!

Jump!

Ah,

of course, it's to be.

Did you see that, Adams?

I did it. I was up there, way up there.
What you fellas look like, like little

dolls. And I felt like a, like a... Like
an eagle

soaring on the breezes up there. It was
wonderful.

Ah, welcome, Jack, welcome.

You have now joined the ranks of the
aeronauts.

Aeronauts? Wait, Adams, do you hear
that? I'm an aeronaut. That's just what

always wanted to...

B, what scenario are you in on?

Oh, sure.

Now those new neighbors of Louis's were
making sure he didn't go hungry out

there. Why, he was being took care of
better than if he was in one of them

hotels in Paris.

But as far as Adams, Nekoma, and Ben was
concerned, it was as if the earth had

swallowed up little Lewis.

Well, we finally hauled, dragged,
pushed, and pulled the Queen of Paris

the launching site.

We had to start all over again, and time
was a -running out if an Andre was

going to get to that crew with the
hydrogen gas.

That's why everyone was a -helping.

I mean everyone.

It's coming real good, Ben.

Just keep that bellows going.

Keep it going.

That's a good boy, Ben.

Keep pumping the bellows.

Good. Good, Ben.

Andre, the Queen of Paris looks like
she's ready to go.

Oui, Adams, oui.

But the big question is, am I ready to
go?

You're thinking about Louis, ain't you?

Oui, Jacques, oui. I cannot leave
without knowing he's all right.

Yeah, more than likely he's out there
somewhere, healthy as a horse and happy

a June bug on a summer's eve.

Yeah, you're probably right, Jack, but
there's just certain things you've got

know the truth about, especially when
it's a friend.

Does that mean what I think it means?

Yeah, it does.

We're going to give one last look for
Louie. Hmm.

I want you and Andre to take the flats,
and the Coleman and I are going to take

the woods.

Mr. Andre, if we don't find him... We're
going to keep looking for him until we

do, even after you're gone. Ain't that
right, Adams?

That's right. And when we find him,
we're going to keep him here until you

back in your return flight.

Oh, thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Come on, Ben.

We're going to give one last look for
Louie.

Come on, Seven.

You're right, Nekoma.

It is like Louie don't want to be found,
but we got to keep trying.

Nekoma, look.

You know what I think, Andre? We ought
to... Mr.

Andre?

Mr. Andre?

Mr. Andre?

Now, where in tarnation did he get to?

Well, we better go find him.

I don't know what scared Andre more,
seeing that mountain lion or hearing

mountain lion.

Now, Mr. Andre

didn't quite know what to do, but he
knew what he couldn't do.

He knew he couldn't crawl out of that
hole, not while that cougar was there.

This is where you saw him last, huh,
Jack? Well, it was long about in here

someplace.

The way he's moving, he could be most
anywhere by now.

Yeah, I saw Oak.

You're right, Nekoma.

All right, we'll all split up and take
an area.

Well,

we were searching for Andre.

Ben and that raccoon did a little animal
-to -animal communication.

That raccoon wanted Ben to follow him,
and, well, that's just what Ben did.

Wow!

Andre found himself in a bad fix.

But he had learned one thing out here in
the mountains, and that was how to make

do with what you had on hand.

Like the bellows in the fire pit for the
balloon, for instance.

So Andre went to work.

He knew it wouldn't do any good to
shout. For one thing, we was too far

hear. And for another, shouting might
excite that mountain lion. And, well,

was about the last thing in the world
Andre wanted to do.

Andre figured if we couldn't hear him,
maybe he could do something about us

seeing him.

Do you want to give him another blast,
number seven?

That's good.

Anybody that can't hear that has got to
be plumb out of the territory or in deep

trouble.

Andre figured it was the only chance he
had, and he made the best of it.

Hello, my little pasticheiro.

You must fly very safe and very high.

Go, Schultz!

That there's got to be Mr.

Andres doing.

Or that balloon has had herself a pup.

Andre!

Andre!

Andre! Andre!

No,

no, no. Mr. Adams!

Mr. Adams! Mr. Adams! That is not a
pussycat!

No, Andre?

That's a mountain lion that thinks he's
a pussycat.

Did you scare Andre? Huh?

Well, I guess he just didn't know you
were looking out for his best interest.

That's all right.

Well, now that we're here, we'll take
care of him. You can go on home.

That's a good boy.

That was sure a good idea you had,
Andre. Oh, about shooting that parachute

the air. Oh, my poor Louis.

If only he could send up a signal.

Ben, he also saw my parachute.

No, I don't think so, Andre.

I think he just wants us to follow him.

Can you bring us all the way over here
to look at some wild raspberry bushes

with no raspberries?

Louie!

Louie!

My handsome Louie!

You are alive and well!

Alone you have survived in this vast
wilderness.

Formidable.

Andre.

Oui, oui.

Louis, he ain't exactly alone.

And Louis, he ain't exactly Louis
either.

Je ne comprends pas.

So that is why he has been acting so
strange of late.

He, mademoiselle, madame, was in a
delicate condition.

Now we knew why we couldn't find Louis.

Because he was really Louise.

And the other animals knew that she was
going to have a passel of bunnies, and,

well, they didn't want any humans around
to spoil the proceedings.

Louise.

Louise.

I love you.

But I see I cannot take you away from
your family.

You belong here with them.

Louise and her family, they will be safe
here.

Andre, I give you my word that Nakoma
and Ben and myself and Uncle Jack, We'll

come in and check on him every now and
again, I promise.

You bet you we will.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

My friend, you have taught me much.

And you shall always be in my heart.

Well, learning works both ways, Andre.

And we're sure never going to forget
you.

He's right, Mr. Andre.

Friendship ain't got no borders.

Mon Dieu.

Jack, I cannot leave.

I must bestow upon you an honor in
behalf of the French government.

To Mad Jack, who ascended fearlessly
into the air in a ballon.

The medal of the Order of Ballonets.

Away all hopes!

Bon jury, Andre.

Bon jury.

You come back and see us, you hear?

Adieu!

Goodbye. Good luck. Adieu, Ben.

Adieu, Adam.

Bye, Andre.

Bonne chance, Louisa.

Goodbye, Andre.

Adieu, Jacques.

Just think, we're probably watching a
piece of history floating away.

That's right, Adams.

And if it weren't for me, you wouldn't
have been a part of it.

Well, that does it for spring house
cleaning, Ben.

I can see that really upsets you,
though.

Adam? Hi, Jack.

Where you been?

Number seven here wanted to check on
Louise before we moved on.

She's happier than a back -scratch town.

Yeah, it looked like that when we went
up this morning and looked in on her.

The Comas people said that they saw
Andre and the hydrogen crew in the

Valley. They were mighty proud to get
their mail up there.

Well, that's good.

You know what?

I never did think we was going to get
that thing to fly again.

Well, all you got to do is believe in
what you're doing.

Have a little faith, a little
imagination.

A fella can do almost anything he wants.

Yeah, I reckon so.

You know what bothers me?

Here I am, an aeronaut.

I flew in the balloon, and ain't a soul
in the world going to believe me when I

tell them.

Well, you got your metal to prove it,
don't you?

Yeah. Guess I have.

You know, it's a shame Andre didn't give
you a Nekoma medal, too, son.

But then again, you ain't area nuts.

Well, medals are nice, Jack.

I got something just as good.

Got good friends.

Got a nice home.

Got a feeling deep inside me I can do
whatever I gotta do every day of my life

and make it worthwhile and mean
something.

What do you think about that, Ben?

Deep inside the forest is a door into
another land.

Here is our life and home.

We are staying here forever in the
beauty of

this place all alone.

We keep on hoping.

Maybe there's a way.

There's a time
