Original subtitles

TARZAN: The jungle.

Here I was born.

And here my parents died when I was but an infant.

I would have soon perished, too, had I not been found

by a kindly she-ape named Kala,

who adopted me as her own

and taught me the ways of the wild.

I learned quickly and grew stronger each day.

And now, I share the friendship and trust

-of all jungle animals. -(ROARS)

The jungle is filled with beauty

and danger.

And lost cities filled with good and evil.

(HISSES)

This is my domain and I protect those who come here.

For I am Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle!

(YELLS JUNGLE CRY)

(SNIFFS)

The Bolgani approach.

And they bring with them a scent I do not understand.

Come, Nkima.

(NKIMA GIBBERING)

TARZAN: There, Nkima. A perfumed young woman.

-Yo, Bolgani. -Yo, Tarzan.

Release the female.

(SPEAKING ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

Free the girl and you may pass.

(ROARS)

I have no quarrel with you, if you free the girl.

(SPEAKS ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

(GROWLING)

(ROARS)

Who... Who are you?

Tarzan of the apes.

Sorry, Bolgani, but your brothers will soon free you.

(GIBBERING)

(ROARS)

Oh, I'm very grateful to you, Tarzan,

for rescuing me and for this delicious meal.

Nkima shares your appetite but not your good manners.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Well, now that you know us, who are you?

My name is Thea.

{ come from Athne, the city of ivory.

I have never heard of Athne, and I have never seen such clothing.

It must be far away.

It's several days from here, beyond the mountains.

Then how do you happen to be here?

Earlier this week,

{if was riding in the countryside near my home,

when a patrol of enemy soldiers surprised me.

Halt!

On, Juno, on!

(ELEPHANT TRUMPETS)

(ROARS)

The soldiers gave chase but I escaped into the mountains

finally leaving my mount behind and running on foot.

I soon became lost and was captured by a band of gorillas.

And now I am anxious to return home.

I will escort you, Thea. It would be safer for you

and an opportunity for me to see this new land.

Oh, your company would be a great comfort.

Nkima, are you sure you want to go?

It will be a very long hike.

THEA: A very long hike.

And we're sure to encounter wild animals.

Like lions, rhinos, and even giant snakes.

-(NKIMA GIBBERING) -(TARZAN LAUGHS)

Tarzan, what is he telling us?

"Goodbye."

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Oh, Tarzan, there it is, the valley in which I live!

My home, Athne, is beyond, on the far side of the forest.

Thea, what is the city that shines so brightly?

THEA: That is Zandor, the City of Gold.

TARZAN: It is magnificent.

THEA: it is evil.

The Zandorians are bitter enemies of Athne

and it was their soldiers who chased me into the mountains.

Thea, I've traveled many places

and I've learned that there is good and bad everywhere.

But to find the good, you must sometimes be willing to look for it.

THEA: Look for it near Zandor and you'll be taken prisoner.

We must wait until dark to cross the valley.

TARZAN: The longer we wait, the wetter we will get.

TARZAN: I have not seen such a storm in many seasons!

At least it helps hide us from the eyes of the Zandorians.

THEA: This is the river we must cross.

The rain has angered it, but if we hurry, 1 think we may still pass.

Thea, take my hand.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

Hold your breath!

(COUGHING)

-Come on! Just a little farther, Thea. -Uh...

-Up you go. -(COUGHS) Oh.

I have something in my eyes.

(THUNDER CONTINUES RUMBLING)

(CREAKING)

Tarzan, what...

Tarzan! Where are you?

(JUNGLE CRY)

(SPEAKING ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

(GRUNTS)

(SPEAKING ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

You are strong and brave friends.

You are under arrest in the name of Queen Nemone of Zandor.

Sit down, foreign spy, and do not disturb me.

I am Tarzan of the apes, and I am no spy.

Save your breath. You outsiders are all liars.

Who are you?

I am Phobeg.

(GRUNTS)

Strongest warrior in all of Zandor!

I do not understand why a warrior of your great strength

does not escape from here.

Escape to where?

That evil city of Athne, where 1 would only be imprisoned again?

I'd rather take my chances with my own queen.

That would be Queen Nemone of whom the guards spoke.

What is she like?

I leave that for you to find out tomorrow.

Let me rest.

What earthly reason could you have for sneaking into Zandor

in the middle of a rainy night, except to spy on us?

Well? What have you to say for yourself, spy?

I am not a spy.

I was swept downstream in the storm

and happened upon your city purely by chance.

You are a spy and you will suffer the consequences.

MAN: The Queen.

(ROARS)

Down, jackal.

(ROARS)

Quiet, Belthar.

Why does this prisoner not kneel before me?

Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle, kneels to no one.

(ROARS)

Why have you come to Zandor?

That I have already explained to this old man with the red face.

Why, ...

So, ask him.

I am tired of explaining to people who have already decided my guilt.

Nobody speaks to my queen like that.

Tomos, it seems to me

if he has insulted anyone, it has been you.

Nevertheless, your rudeness cannot go unpunished.

The two of you will meet in the arena

and only one shall emerge victorious.

Take them away.

(LION ROARS)

Phobeg will soon have that insolent Tarzan on his knees

begging for mercy.

(TOMOS CHUCKLES)

Don't be too sure, Tomos.

(FANFARE PLAYS)

To gain my freedom, I must conquer you.

And I will do it gladly because you are a fool,

as are all outsiders.

You forget one thing, Phobeg.

-What? -There is a chance I may conquer you.

You conquer me?

(PHOBEG LAUGHING)

That is a good one!

(FANFARE PLAYS)

Let the contest begin.

Farewell, Tarzan of the apes.

Now, my queen, we shall see Tarzan get what he deserves.

Well, ape-man, it looks like this is goodbye.

(GRUNTING)

Sorry, Phobeg, but I hate goodbyes.

Well, this Tarzan seems to be as clever with gladiators as he is with noblemen.

A lucky accident, nothing more.

(GRUNTING)

(PHOBEG SPUTTERING)

-You clumsy ox! -(CROWD LAUGHING)

The foreigner is making a fool of you.

A-ha!

Tarzan is finished.

PHOBEG: Hey!

What are you...

(YELLS JUNGLE CRY)

Do what you must do, Tarzan.

There is nothing more to do!

I am the victor and I have won my freedom!

You fool. Do you not understand the Queen's command?

Finish him!

She is your queen, not mine.

If she wants anything further done to this man,

why don't you do it?

Guards, take him. He attacked me!

Set Phobeg free and bring Tarzan to me in the palace.

I would not have spared you. Why did you spare me?

Your life is your own and not for me or anyone else to take.

QUEEN NEMONE: Coming, Tomos?

(CHUCKLING) Or do you wish to challenge the winner?

Kneel, you fool.

Silence. It is I who gives the commands, Tomos.

-You may go now. -Yes, my queen.

(LION ROARS)

Belthar does not like you.

He is no different from anyone else in Zandor.

That is not true.

No? - Ilike you.

No one in the world has ever refused to kneel before me and lived

except you.

I have decided to give you your freedom

but on one condition.

And what is that?

That you do not try to leave Zandor.

You shall be the richest, most powerful noble of my court.

I do not want such things.

You will. You will.

Why has the Queen summoned me so early today?

It seems an Athnean has been caught traveling through the woods south of here.

And the Queen wishes to have some sport with him.

What kind of sport?

That is for the Queen to decide.

Hi-ya!

Well, I'm glad you could join us, Tarzan.

What better way to start the day than with a little sport?

TOMOS: A-ha!

The Athnean.

(SNARLING)

This is not sport. The Athnean has no chance!

How noble you are.

Perhaps you would like to battle the panther instead?

If you are successful, the Athnean will be set free.

It is the law.

A useless law.

I have never seen anyone foolish enough to take the risk.

(GROWLS)

QUEEN NEMONE: Tarzan, wait!

Help him. He mustn't be hurt.

I'm afraid, my queen, that he is beyond help now.

No!

Sheeta, I respect your strength and I acknowledge your nature as a hunter.

But I cannot allow you to harm the Athnean.

Go in peace, Sheefa.

(SPEAKING ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

Never have I seen such a thing.

Nor me.

He is the most fascinating man I have ever known.

-Thea. -Tarzan.

Oh, Tarzan, I thought you were dead.

I told you he was a spy.

He knows the Athnean and obviously knows her well.

I have defeated the panther.

By your own law, the Athnean here is free.

Oh, no, my handsome spy.

You have betrayed me for another and that I can never forgive.

Take them to the dungeon while I decide their punishment!

Oh, Tarzan, you know we will never leave here, don't you?

There isn't one person in all Zandor kind enough to help us.

There is always a way to escape, Thea. We just have to wait for the right moment.

That moment is now, my friend.

Phobeg!

At your service.

No Zandorian has ever helped an Athnean before.

Why should this one be any different?

Young lady, I used to think like you.

Anyone not from my city was the enemy.

But when Tarzan spared my life,

he showed me there can be kind, brave people

outside of Zandor as well as within.

And for that, and my life, I am forever grateful.

And now, we shall switch to a speedier form of transport.

THEA: Oh, Phobeg, you have thought of everything.

I truly hope so.

-Here, you must wear my uniform. -What about you?

I am not going.

But if it is discovered you helped us, you know what your fate will be.

I know only that Tarzan saved my life

and now it is my turn to save his.

-Farewell, friend. -Farewell,

friends.

-(BLOWING TRUMPET) -Hang on, Thea!

Go, go!

Run, Numas!

Tarzan must not escape! A promotion to the man who stops them!

Oh, Tarzan, they're catching up!

Then we must lighten the load. ll don't need this.

(THUDS)

(SPEAKING ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

Faster!

TARZAN: Hang on!

(ROARING)

Numas, Odin, to the forest.

You have earned a rest, my proud friend.

We need your help no longer.

You have carried us to freedom and now we shall grant you your freedom.

(SPEAKING ANIMAL LANGUAGE)

I must admit, Tarzan, what you said was true.

You can find friends everywhere, if you just look hard enough.

Even in Zandor.

I think our newest friends are saying goodbye.

(ROARING)

THEA: Goodbye, friends.

Come, Thea. We had better get started toward Athne.

Oh, yes. Home sweet home.
