All language subtitles for napoleon and samantha

Ouch !
Shh !

- I bumped my knee.
- Who cares about
your dumb old knee ?

Now, be quiet
and stay down.

Okay ?

[ Car horn honking ]

What are you
doing that for ?

'Cause that's what
they always do.
Who ?

The Indians.

Now you stay here,
and I'll tell you
when to come.

Okay ?

[ Dog barking ]

Oh, boots.
Stay down, okay ?

Shh.
Be quiet, boots.
[ Barking continues ]

Shh !

No, boots. Shh !
Down !

[ Man ]
Boots, hush up
out there !

[ Barking continues ]

Oh, boots.
Get away.
You hear me, boots ?

Hush up out there !

Here. This oughta
shut ya up.

Oh, for Pete's sake.

[ Whimpering ]

[ Growling ]

How did he do that ?

Sam.

Quick, take these.
Hurry.

[ Ringing ]

[ Car horn honking ]

Well, if it isn't
big chief red top
himself ?

I don't see
much of you, Samantha,

since your ma
took to bargain huntin'
at the supermarket.

Yes, sir.
I mean, no, sir.

Everybody's squeezin' out
the small-business man.

And those empties
don't help either.

It does seem to me...

I get more
of these things back
than I sell.

How's that grandpa
of yours doin' ?

I haven't been
to see him for a while.
Oh, he's okay.

Well, that's six bottles.
Be 12 cents.

You want the usual ?
Yes, sir.

Maybe you ought to ask
this young lady what she wants.

- She wants the same as me.
- Samantha ?

That's right.
I want the same as him.

Okay.

Two suckers on the house
and the bottles in jelly beans.

But you better watch out,
Napoleon.

When a woman starts agreeing
with everything you say,

she's really got
her eye out for you.

I don't think
it's right.

It's not stealing.
I mean, we gave him
his bottles back.

But they were
his bottles.

Well, anyway, I don't eat
the jelly beans myself.

They're for Charley.
Who's Charley ?

Who's Charley ?
You wanna meet him ?

Yeah !
Okay,
I'll take ya,

but you gotta promise to
help me on exams tomorrow.
I'm not supposed to.

Well, okay.
Good. Come on.

Here, Charley !
[ Neighing ]

Over here, Charley !
Come on !

Over here, Charley.
Come on.
Charley's a horse.

Yeah. Over here, Charley.
Come on.

He knows ya ?
Of course he does.
Here, Charley !

What are you
trying to do ?
I'm gonna get on him.

He's teachin' me how to ride,
so I can be a cowboy
like my grandpa was.

Your grandpa
was a cowboy ?

Yep. And he's
part Indian too.

I don't believe you.
He can't be an Indian
and a cowboy.

My grandpa can.
Here, Charley !
Come on !

[ Neighing ]
Yeah. Here's
your candy, Charley.

[ Whinnies ]

- Come on. He can carry
the two of us.
- I can't ride.

Just hold on, okay ?
Come on. Hurry up, before
he finishes the candy.

Hurry, he's almost
finished.

Hold on tight.
He's gonna go now.

Where to ?
Across the field
to the water.

The candies
make him thirsty.

Come on.
Giddyap. Come on.

Come on.
Giddyap, Charley.
Giddyap. Come on.

See, isn't it fun ?
Yeah.

Aren't you supposed
to have a saddle
and a bridle to hold ?

Nah, that's only for people
who don't know how to ride.
Giddyap. Yee-ha !

Come on, Charley !
Come on !
That's it.

He likes that.
Yeah.

Come on.

Thanks for
the ride, Charley.
Yeah, thanks a lot, Charley.

You're the best horse,
Charley. Good-bye.
Good-bye !

Can you see her ?
There's nobody there.

Good. She's
probably still out.

She ever hit you
for bein' late ?
No.

I don't think
housekeepers
are allowed to.

She just jabbers
at me a lot.

Well, I'd better make
a run for it, napol--

oh, hi, gertrude.

So you finally decided
to come home, hmm ?

Do you know
what time it is ?

No, ma'am.
It's 6:00.

Now I don't know
what you've been doing,
young lady,

but let's get one thing
straight around here.

While your mother
and father are away,
I'm responsible for you.

I expect to see you
home by 5:00. Now,
is that understood ?

Yeah.
Oh, go to your room
and get changed.

You look like something
the cat dragged in.

See ya, Napoleon.

What have you got
all over your dress ?

It's horse hair.
Horse hair !

Grandpa, I'm home !

I'm home, grandpa !

Hi, grandpa.
Ahoy there, mate.

Say, you're late.

You been behavin'
yourself ?

Well, I'm glad
to hear that.

Gotta keep things
shipshape around here.

Permission to speak, sir ?
Permission granted.

Grandpa, all the other kids
are goin' to the movies.
Can we go ?

Well, now, that depends.

Depends on what ?

On whether or not
you're gonna give...

Your grandpa's achin' back
a rub or not.

Sure.

Now, go on.
Go on, now.
Get the liniment.
Okay.

[ Grandpa laughing ]

Did captain Morgan really die
in a Spanish prison, grandpa ?

Not on your life, he didn't.
There wasn't a prison in the
world could hold old Morgan.

There's nothin' as tough
as an old sea dog.

[ Chuckling ]

Do you think I could
ever do all the things
you did, grandpa ?

Well, if you eat your vittles
and keep your curiosity up...

And your wits about you,
you will.

[ Chuckling ]

¶¶ [ Recorder ]

What is it, grandpa ?
Well, darned if I know.

¶¶ [ Continues ]

Step right up.
Join the celebration.

It's a real, live lion !

Golly !

[ Grandpa ]
Hey, uh, what are
you celebratin' ?

Oh, we are celebrating
an ending, my dear friends.

An ending ?
To what ?

To a... a lifelong partnership.

Yes, um, and
two glorious careers.

Oh, permit me.

Dimetri, the clown.

Brrrrrrrr.
¶ ba-da ¶

[ laughing ]
Uh, I'm, uh,
Seth Wilson.

And I'm Napoleon.

And major, eh ?
The king of beasts.

Won't you join us ?
Oh, please. I beg of you.

Are you sure
he won't object ?
Oh, no,
no, no, he won't object.

He's the most kind
and gentle king of beasts.

Would you do
the honors, please ?
The honors ?

Oh, yes, yes.
[ Chuckling ]

[ Chuckling continues ]

Have you seen
such a thing ?
[ Laughing ]

[ Seth chuckling ]

So you're retirin' ?

Dimetri is finally
going home... to Europe.

- Is the lion goin' with ya ?
- Well, uh, that is
the predicament.

That is the sadness.

Why ?
What's the matter ?

Old friends should
never be separated.

Oh, you mean you can't
take him with you.

What are you gonna do
with him ?

Well, I'm searching
for a happy place...

Where his majesty will be
treated like his majesty.

Have you tried a zoo ?

Oh, I have, I have.

And they have been
very kind and helpful, but...

They cannot find a place for
an old, milk-drinking lion,

an old veteran of joy.

Hey, my grandpa used to be
a lion trainer !

That was a long time ago,
Napoleon.

Did you work
in the circus ?
[ Napoleon ] no !

He trained lions
for the emperor of Ethiopia !

That was quite
a long time ago, Napoleon.

My dear friends,
my beloved friends,

the major is yours.

You mean that
you're givin' him to us ?

Not I, but fate.

Oh, no, no, no, no.
None of that. We can't
have a lion in our home.

- [ Napoleon ] Why not ?
- Well, because he's a wild
animal, that's why not.

- Oh, no.
- He doesn't look
very wild to me.

And besides, you said
you were a lion trainer.

We can't have him in our home.
He's too expensive.
We wouldn't be able to feed him.

Why he must eat like a--
like a-- like a--
oh, no, no, no.

Not major.
He just drinks milk.

He has bad teeth.

Oh.

- Please, grandpa.
- No, no. We-- we haven't got
any place to keep a lion.

Yeah, we have.
We have a cage.

Cage ?

Oh, it's gonna take
at least a dozen quarts
of milk...

To keep this boy goin'
for just one day.

Don't worry, grandpa.
I'm gonna save
all my pocket money...

Just to buy milk.

Hold on now. He isn't
too well acquainted
with us yet.

He might be
a little feisty
in the mornings.

Oh, grandpa.
Ah, ah, ah, now.

Ah-ah-ah.

He knows us. He's part
of our family now.

Here ya are.
Okay.

- Look at him, grandpa.
- I'm a lookin'.

Did I say a dozen quarts
of milk ?

What he's gonna need
is a whole cow.

- [ Clucking ]
- [ Seth ] Oh !

Well, one thing at least.

He started the hens
back to layin'.

Eh-eh, ah-ah-ah,
ah-ah-ah-ah.

Oh, grandpa. Gyah.

Here.
Have some more milk.

Well, I declare.

Bye, grandpa.
Oh, you off to school ?

Yeah.
Now don't dawdle
on the way.

I don't want that teacher
complainin' about you again.
Okay.

Bye, major.
Have a nice day.
See you when I come home.

You'll watch him for me,
won't you, grandpa ?
Of course I will.

And you remember
what I told you.

I will.
Don't gossip about him.

If the authorities hear
about him, they'd take him away.
Darn busybodies.

Yeah.

Bye, grandpa.
Oh, Napoleon.

Yeah ?
You drop this off at the post
on your way, will ya ?

Where's it goin' ?
New York.

Oh, yeah.
Good-bye.
Nyah.

[ Gasping ]

[ Grunting ]

Yeah. That's right.

Couple of old-timers,
you and me, hmm ?

[ Chattering ]

Let's go see Charley.
No, I gotta go home.

Well, why ?
I just gotta.
That's why.

You wanna come over
to my house and play ?
No.

Can I come to yours ?
No !

I'm sorry.

Now can you keep
a secret ?
You know I can.

Then come on.
Am I supposed to guess
or what ?

You're not supposed
to do anything.

You'll just see it
when you see it.

It's a real, live lion !

His name is major.

Think I could come in
and pet him ?

Come on in.

[ Chickens clucking ]

He won't hurt ya.
Pet him.

See ? He's nice.

Sure is a nice lion.

Sure is.
Couldn't be any nicer.
He drinks milk.

Must drink
an awful lot.

He does.

Ah, see ? See ?
Look, look, look.

See what he's doin' ?
See ?

He won't even--
ahh.

Twenty-six quarts
in three days ?
[ Chuckles ]

Sure gonna make a dent
in the pension check.
Oh, yeah, that's right.

Here ya are, Napoleon.
Thanks, Mr. gutteridge.

Thank you.

You know, Seth--
hmm ?

You're lookin'
a mite peaked lately.

You feelin' all right ?

Right as rain, amos.

Well, it stands to reason
with all that milk
you've been drinkin'.

I'm not drinkin' it.

What are you doin' ?
Bathin' in the stuff ?

Yeah.
How'd you guess ?
What ?

Any doctor'll tell ya.

Milk baths. When a man
gets to be my age,
milk supples the flesh.

You ought to try it on
that ornery hide of yours.

Gonna help me, Napoleon ?
So long, amos.

So long, Seth.

Good-bye, Mr. gutteridge.
Thanks again.

Bye, Napoleon.

You nappin',
grandpa ?
[ Snorting ]

Wh-wh-what ?
Me ? Nappin' ?

No. No. I was just
squinchin' my eyes,

lookin' for
smoke signals.

Smoke signals ?
Where ?

Mmm, over on
yonder hill there.

Wild Indians,
they send out their messages
along about this time of day.

Didn't I
ever tell you ?

No !
Golly !

Hold it.
I-I do believe
there is one now.

No. No,
it's just a cloud.

No, grandpa, I think
that is a smoke signal.

Yeah.

Come on, maj.
Giddyap.

Ah, you're
slow as molasses.

Gosh ! Now git.
Come on.

That's okay.
It was a good ride,

even if you can't gallop.

Okay.

Now, maj-- now, you...
Get... in there.

Now-- now go on !
[ Growling ]

Get in there.
Your milk's waitin'
and everything, maj.

Come-- maj !
Get in there.

There !
Finally.

Golly.

I'm gonna go see
grandpa, okay ?

Hi, grandpa.

Ah, mornin', officer.

Me and maj have had
our ride already.

You were sleepin' so sound,
I didn't wanna wake ya.
You gettin' up ?

I thought maybe I'd spend
a day in bed.

I'm not feelin'
so well this mornin'.

Is your tummy bad again ?

Somethin' like that.

Hey, want me to fix you
breakfast in bed, captain ?

Why, I'd like that.

Okay. I'll fix ya somethin'
real special, okay ?

[ Coughing ]

Why, thank you.

My, my,
this looks good.

- What's this ?
- Oh, that's an onion sandwich.

Oh.

What's this ?

Oh, that's chocolate,
strawberry and vanilla
ice cream, all melted up.

Oh, my, my.
That is tasty.

But I think I--
I'll just save that.

Set it over there, will ya ?
I'll just take my coffee.
Okay.

Oh, that's the instant kind,
since I don't know how to perk.

But I put in
two extra spoons.

It's good.
[ Chuckling ]
It's good.

But I think I'll
just save this too.

Okay.
Set it there.

I better go
clean up the kitchen.

- Napoleon ?
- Yeah, grandpa ?

Come here a minute, will ya ?
Sit down. I-- I want
to talk to you.

What are we gonna
talk about ?
Us, Napoleon.

We are going to talk
about us.

We've been a--
a good crew, haven't we ?

The two of us ? Shipmates ?
We've had some good times
together, haven't we ?

- We sure have, captain.
- The trouble is, your old
grandpa is gettin' older.

We both are.
I'm gonna be 11 in August.

Trouble is,
this old body of mine--

it just-- it's just
gettin' older.

Uh, wrinkled old hands...

And tired old muscles.

The ticker just keeps missin'
a tick now and then.

Then I take a deep breath,
I just keep coughin'
all the time.

- But everybody coughs, grandpa.
- Mm, yeah.

What are you gonna do...

With an old machine that
just keeps breakin' down ?

- Ya fix it.
- Mm-hmm.

What about when
you can't fix it no more ?

Well, you gotta trade it in
for a new one.

That's just what
I'm going to do.

I'm gonna trade
this old machine of mine
in for a new one.

Mm-hmm.

What do you mean,
grandpa ?

Oh, it's nothin' to be
concerned about.

Nothin' to be scared
or frightened about.

It's just that, uh,
my old body is... is dyin'.

I'm not surprised.

It's a wonder it didn't
do it years before,
the way I've treated it.

I never knew anyone
who died before.

Nobody ever really dies,
Napoleon.

The thing
that's real in you...

Just keeps goin'
on and on forever.

You know, in a way,

we're like the seasons--
life is.

You're born in the spring.

Then you grow up
during the hot, warm summer.

And autumn's the time
when you reach maturity.

You're at your peak.

And then--
then there's the winter.

It gives us all a chance
to go quickly back to spring...

And start all over again.

But you still have to
go away and leave me,
don't you, grandpa ?

No, no, that-- that
doesn't follow at all.

You see, I've always wanted
to take my rest...

Up-- up-- up there
on the hill...

Where we used to like to sit
and watch the sunset.

Of course, I've made my peace
with my almighty,

so I know he's not
gonna be too concerned...

About my not havin'
an expensive funeral
and all that.

And besides, your Uncle,

he'll see to
all those things.

You never said I had
an Uncle or anything
like that before.

Well, ya have. And he's
your last livin' relative.

He's the one I wrote
and told him all about you.

Is he gonna come
and stay with us ?

Well, I haven't heard
from him yet, but he'll be here.

When I go away,
he is the one that's goin'
to take care of you.

What's his name ?

Charley Hammond.

I know a horse
named Charley.

Do ya, now ?

Gee, I hope your grandpa's
feelin' better.

Yeah, I'm gonna go in
and see him right now.

We'll feed major
a little later.

Wait here, will ya ?
All right.

Grandpa, I'm home !

Oh, I'm sorry, grandpa.
I didn't know you were asleep.

Grandpa ?

Grandpa ?

[ Seth ]
Remember, son, it's nothin'
to be frightened about.

Just means that
old grandpa's set free...

To get around again.

What's the matter, Napoleon ?
Somethin' wrong ?

Did you ever know anyone
that died before ?
[ Sniffles ]

No. Did--

my grandpa just did.

Oh, Napoleon.

It's--

it's nothing to be
scared or worried about.

Just means that...

My grandpa's free to do
what he wants to now.

See, that's just
his old body in there.

You know, my grandpa
said that...

Nobody ever really dies
because...

The thing that's real
inside of you...

Goes on and on
forever and ever.

I think that's very beautiful,
Napoleon, but...

Who's gonna
look after you now ?

My Uncle.
Where's he ?

In New York.
When's he coming ?

I don't know just yet.

He's supposed to write.

What's it say ?

"Unclaimed mail."

Do you know
what that is ?

I think it means that...

Nobody was there
to get the letter.

Huh, Napoleon ?

Was that
your only Uncle ?

Well, haven't you got
any more relatives ?
No.

Well, then, you have to
live at the orphanage.

That's where they put
people that don't have
any relatives.

I won't go.
They'll make ya.

No, they won't, 'cause
I'm not gonna tell anybody
my grandpa's dead.

Well, you can't keep
that a secret.

Yes, I can,
and you better not
tell anybody.

But they'll see
the funeral.

There's not gonna be
any funeral.

I'm gonna bury my grandpa
up there on our hill,

where we used to sit
and watch the sunset.

That's what
he always wanted.
He told me that.

Well, who's
gonna do it ?

I'll have to do it
myself.

He's too big
for you to bury.

Then I'll have to
hire somebody.

Do you know anybody
I could use ?
No.

You'll have to go see
the employment office.

But you better hurry.
They probably close
at 5:00.

- How ya doin', general ?
- I'm a captain.

Well, if you're a captain,
where's your hat ?

I haven't got it yet.
I just became a captain.

- Oh.
- Next, please.

Hi.
Occupation ?

Well, I have a degree
in political science,
but what I really want--

we have this job
in a lumber camp,

but if you qualify,
it's steady employment.

Well, ma'am, I don't want it
to be too steady.

I'm still going to school.
Sorry.
That's all we have.

Well, don't you have just--
just a little odd job ?

I have to buy a book:

Thompson's theory
of modern organization.

We only deal with people
who are interested
in regular employment.

Closed for now.

Right, right.

Well, thank you
very much, ma'am.
Appreciate it.

Hello again.

I was wondering
if we could talk a minute.
Sure.

What do you want to talk about:
Ecology, the political scene,
stock market ?
No.

Hello, Napoleon.
Hi, gertrude.

Napoleon, huh ?

Yeah.
What's your name ?

Daniel Arlington
Williams III,

but you can just call me
Danny, all right ?
Okay.

What are we
gonna talk about ?
Well,

I wondered
if you wanted
to work for me.

Well, that all depends.
You think you can afford
my services ?

I don't know.
How much does that...

Thomas's organization--
whatever it is-- cost ?

[ Chuckles ]
It's a book.
Costs about, oh, $4.50.

I have that much.
Did you come by that
honestly ?

Yeah, it's mine.
Will you work for me ?

Okay. What do you
want me to do ?

It's a secret.
You gotta promise
not to tell anybody.

I promise.
I cross my heart.
I promise.

Well,

I want you to help me
bury my grandpa.

Now, I'd like you
to tell me again...

Exactly what
your grandfather said
about your Uncle and--

[ major roaring ]

What's that ?

Oh, that's major,
my lion.

It's time
for his milk.

Your lion.

[ Chickens clucking ]

Then my grandpa said
he didn't want anything
like a fancy funeral.

He just wanted
to be buried
up there on our hill,

where we used to go
and watch the sunset.

I guess a man can have
his own private burying grounds
if he wants to.

The thing is,
we can't keep it a secret.

Just until
my Uncle gets here.

Else they'll take major
away from me for sure.

Yeah, I guess they would.

Well, we'll need
some wood and tools.

Danny ?
Yeah ?

Be nice if we could be
ready by sunset.

Okay.

For everything
has a season...

And a time
for every purpose.

A time to be born
and a time to die.

And as the setting sun...

Comes to rest
on this beautiful day,

so rests our friend peacefully
in the arms of mother earth.

Now like the sun
that has set...

So it can rise again,

so rests our friend,
that he can rise
in a new life.

We shouldn't feel sorrow...

For the setting sun,

nor should we cry
for our lost friend.

I think that's all.

Napoleon, you have anything
you want to say ?

Thanks, Danny.

Grandpa,

I love you.

You know something ?
Hmm ?

I'm having second thoughts
this morning about
the whole thing.

What's the matter ?

I can't go.

I mean,
I can't just take off
and leave you here alone.

I told you I'll be
all right until
my Uncle gets here.

That's another thing.
This whole Uncle business
sounds pretty iffy.

Now, what happens
if he doesn't get here ?

You sure there's no place
you can reach him now ?

Uh-uh. He's--
he's on his way here.

[ Knocking ]
Must be Sam
for school.

Come on in, Sam.

Hi, Napoleon.
Hi, Danny.

Hiya, Sam. How ya
feelin' this morning ?

Fine, thanks.
Good. Why don't you
sit down and join us ?

Napoleon, according
to what you've told me,

your Uncle should be here
by the end of the week, right ?

Okay, I'll stay here
until then.

Oh, but I'll be all right
on my own.

- Why don't you come
and stay at my house ?
- Can he do that ?

Sure he could.
There's just me and gertrude.
My folks are away.

Well, that's the answer.

I mean, now I can go back
to the cabin without worrying.

I'll bet
it's neat up there
in the mountains.

Beautiful.

Hey, do you think
maj and me can come up
and stay with you someday ?

Of course you can.
You too, Sam. Come up.

We'll have a big picnic.
You can bring maj.
Got lots of milk for maj.

What's this for ?

Show us
where ya live.

Well, I live right--

right... there.

That's 14 Miles straight across
the mountains from here.

That's two valleys, three
ridges, some of the roughest
country you've ever seen.

- That's definitely not the way.
- Bet I could make it.

Forget it.
What you have to do is...

You take the highway right here
up to pinewood junction.

Now a guy named gypsy's
got a service station there.

He lends me his shack.
I take care of his sheep
and goats.

Anyway, you just ask gypsy, and
he'll take you up the back road
in his jeep, all right ?

- Okay.
- Let's not wait
for any social calls.

You know what I mean, Napoleon ?
If anything goes wrong--
anything--

you find gypsy,
and he'll get in touch with me.

Okay, but nothin's
gonna go wrong.

Will you be comin'
back here soon, Danny ?

Yeah, I should be back
in a couple of weeks.

When your Uncle arrives,
you'll tell him everything,
okay ?

All right.

Good-bye, Danny.
Good-bye, Danny.

See you soon.
Bye.

See ya !
Bye.

Will you, Napoleon ?
Will I what ?

Come and stay with us.

No, I gotta stay here
and take care of maj.
Like right now.

I swear,
that grandfather of yours.

He's comin' into
his second childhood.

First milk baths,

then stuffin' himself
with candy.

No wonder
he's feelin' poorly.

You tell him I'm comin' down
to see him tonight.

Oh, oh, you can't do that.

Why can't I do that ?

I been comin' to see
your grandpa regular
since before you were born.

Well, he--

- because he's gonna be out
tonight, that's why.
- Then I'll see him tomorrow.

Maybe Mr. gutteridge
won't come tomorrow.

Of course he will.

He and my grandpa
were best friends.

What if Danny won't let ya
stay with him ?

He will,
when I tell him that...

I don't have an Uncle
and all.

I still think you oughta
find gypsy like Danny said.

Oh, sure. And take maj
on the bus with me.

[ Sighs ]
No, sir.

I'm gonna hike
right over those mountains,
just like Danny does.

[ Sighs ]
Sure wish I could
go with ya.

[ Exasperated sigh ]

See if you can do it.
I can't. I'll be right back.

[ Chicken clucking ]

Well, if you're gonna take
doodle-doo with you,

you can't put him
in the knapsack.

Of course not, ya nut.

He's for you.

Oh, Napoleon,
you shouldn't have.

I love him.

Would you like me
to come and feed
your other chickens ?

No, I'm gonna
turn them loose.

Well,

I better get home.

Good-bye, Napoleon.

I really wouldn't mind
goin' with ya.

I mean, if you're
afraid or anything.

Afraid ?
Why would I be afraid ?

I mean, I've got maj
with me, haven't I ?

Afraid.

I'm sorry.

Good-bye, Napoleon.

[ Clucking ]

What are you
doin' here ?
I'm comin' with ya.

No, you're not.

What about gertrude ?
She'll be all right.

What do you mean,
she'll be all right ?

I left her a note. Said I was
gonna stay with you and your
grandpa for a couple of days.

Please, Napoleon.
I want to be with you.

You'll get scared.

No, I won't !
Not with you and maj
to protect me.

Well--

okay. But you gotta promise
never to cry.

I promise.

Okay. Come on.

[ Chuckling ]

[ Roaring ]

[ Growling ]

Napoleon !

Napoleon !

[ Ferocious growling ]
[ Clucking ]

- Napoleon, help !
- What ? What's wrong ?

Napoleon, look !

[ Napoleon ]
Oh, no. Go get him, maj !
Go get him !

[ Together ]
Go get him, maj !

[ Chicken clucking ]

[ Samantha ] Get him, maj !
[ Napoleon ]
Come on. Fly, doodle-doo.

Go on,
get out of here !
Get out of here ! Hey !

Go on, get !

[ Clucking ]

[ Growls ]

[ Ferocious growling ]

That a boy, maj.
You really showed him.

[ Clucking ]

Here, doodle-doo.
Here, boy. Come on.
Come on.

Come on, boy.
There.

Good boy.
He's okay.

Just a little scared.
There.

What are ya
shakin' for ?

I thought it was gonna
get me, Napoleon. I--

don't worry.
Nothin's gonna get ya
as long as maj is around.

[ Clucking ]
Here.

I'll give him
some of my sandwich.
He loves it.

[ Clucks ]

[ Clucking ]

Why won't he come ?

'Cause he's a cat.

Cats don't like water.

Oh !
That's a good boy,
major !

Oh, major.
Whoa.

[ Both yelling ]

Oh, major.

Golly.

If he doesn't like water,
what does he do when it rains ?

Gets wet.

Napoleon.

I don't like to complain,
but... my foot hurts.

I'm tired.
I know.

I was gonna stop for the night
as soon as I could find
a good place to build a lean-to.

[ Sighs ]

Hey, wait
just a second.

Hey !

Hey, you know somethin' ?
There's a barn
just over the hill.

We can spend
the night there.

We gotta be careful
nobody sees us. Come on.

Come on, major.
Come on.

There's nobody there.
Come on. Let's go.

[ Horse whinnying ]

[ Clucking ]

[ Cow mooing ]

It's nice.
I'm glad we found it.

Yeah, it's okay
for tonight.

[ Pig snorting ]

Here you go, doodle.

You'll love it here.

[ Mooing ]

[ Growls ]

[ Low growl ]

[ Crickets chirping ]

It's not here.
What's not there ?

Pinewood junction.

I'm looking for
the back road...

That leads from gypsy's...

Up to Danny's place.

It's just not here.

Well, sure you got
the right map ?

Of course I'm sure.

We can't see anything
at night.

I'll look for it
in the morning.

'Night.
'Night, maj.
'Night.

[ Owl hooting ]

[ Wings fluttering ]

Napoleon, are--
are you scared ?

No.

Don't you ever
get scared ?

What's there
to be scared about ?
Lots of things.

Like what ?
The dark.

Now, the dark
never hurt anybody.

Things in the dark.

Things like what ?

Things that jump out
and scare ya.

- That's all
in your imagination.
- Still scares me.

Now that's kinda dumb.

I mean,
my grandpa said that...

People just make things up in
their mind to be scared about.

Now go to sleep.

[ Clucking ]

How do you make it work ?
It's easy. All you have
to do is squeeze it.

Don't squeeze it too hard,
or she'll kick ya.

[ Milk squirting into pot ]

Hey, it works.

- [ Mooing ]
- [ Coughing ]

[ Chuckling ]

[ Rooster crowing ]

I'm glad we decided
to leave him there.
He seems a lot happier.

Yeah, doodle always liked
to be with hens. Come on.

[ Rooster crowing ]

[ Wind howling ]
[ Samantha ]
it's gettin' awful steep.

I told ya:
Just don't look down,
and hang on.

[ Growls ]

Napoleon,
look at him.

Aw, maj. Now that's
no place to lie down.
Now get up.

I feel like
I'm gonna slip.
What am I gonna do ?

Can't you kinda inch--
inch around him ?

I can't.

Well, climb right over
top of him and put
your foot right there.

[ Growls ]

He's just a little scary,
but don't worry.

Give me your hand.
Come on. Now, jump.

Got ya.

Okay, there's a--
there's a little spot.

Now stay there.
Stay there. Stay.

What are we gonna do
with him, Napoleon ?

[ Sighs ]
We gonna have to
get him goin' again.

[ Growls ]

Oh, major.

[ Growls ]
Major !
Go, major !

Go !

Major, go on !
Major !

Napoleon !

I'm okay.
[ Panting ]
I'm okay.

Napoleon.

- Oh.
- Napoleon !

Don't get scared.
Just-- just let me think.

I know.

Throw major's rope
down to me.
Maybe it'll reach.

[ Wind howling continues ]

[ Grunts ]

There. Okay.

Pull me up, maj !
Pull me up !

Here, major.
Here, major !

Come on, major. Good boy.
Come on, major. Pull.

That's it, maj.
That's it. Pull !

Pull !
Come on, major.

Pull !
Pull me up !

Okay.
Made it.

Thanks, major.
Thanks a lot.

I-I didn't think
anything was gonna
happen to her.

I thought she was spending
the night with a boy
and his grandfather.

That's what she wrote
in the note.

You read it yourself.
Yes, ma'am. Did she spend
most of her time here ?

With Napoleon, yeah.
Yeah. Now you say...

The last time you saw the boy,
he was walkin' down the street
with a strange man ?

Kind of a hippie type,
you say ?

That's right.

Now he's the one
you should be checking on
right now !

Excuse me, uh,
chief.

Oh.

It's too bad you
don't like water.

It makes your feet
feel real nice.

[ Growls ]

[ Roaring ]

Sam !

A bear !

Sam ! Sam !

Get out of here !

Sam ! Sam !

- It's a bear, maj !
- Come on, major, it's a bear !

Come on.
[ Grunting ]

- Napoleon, he won't budge !
- Sam !

- Get up ! Major !
- [ Growling ]

Come on.

Major, get up !
It's a bear !

Don't just stand there
drinkin' your milk !

Get up, major !
Move !

It's a bear !
[ Growling ]

Major !
[ Fierce growling ]

[ Growling ]

Go get him ! Good !
Good ! Go get him !
Good ! Go get him !

Come on.

Get him, major !
Go away, bear !

[ Growling ]

- Major, go get him !
- [ Growling ]

Sock it to him !
Come on !

Oh !

- [ Cheering ]
- [ Growling ]

Good boy.
Good boy, major.

Oh, major,
you saved us.

He sure beat up
that old bear.

Aw, he's so strong.

That's why they call him
king of beasts. Yeah !

[ Birds calling ]

Napoleon, wait.

[ Panting ]
Just try and imagine
somethin' nice in your mind.

It'll stop you thinkin'
about being tired.

All I can think about
is sittin' down.

I'll bet we'll be able
to see Danny's cabin
from the top of this hill.

Chocolate cake
with...

Strawberry ice cream...

And marshmallows
with whipped cream
and... cherries.

Cake, apple pie.

Chocolate syrup.

[ Bird cawing ]

[ Bird caws ]

[ Animal noises ]

There's nothing.

[ Crying, sniffling ]

Hey, now you promised
you wouldn't do that.

I know, but...

My feet hurt,

and I wish my mom and dad
were here, and--

Napoleon, do you think
we're gonna die ?

Die ?
Of course not.

[ Gasping ]

I know exactly
where we are... almost.

[ Sniffles ]

Okay.
See those mountains
over there ?

Well, those are
these here.

We oughta be
right about... here.

But...

They have a lake
right here.

I don't see a lake
around here ? Do you ?

Napoleon, we're lost.
Now what are we gonna do ?

Well, maybe we are
a little lost right now.

But you know,

we could just stay here
for weeks and weeks
and live off the land.

Just like the Indians.
Could we do that ?

Sure.

You're so good at everything.
I mean it.

I really admire you.

I'm sorry I was crying.
[ Sniffles ]

That's okay.
Girls can't help it
all the time.

Now you just stay here
and rest.

I'm gonna go
on a hunting trip.

Hey, you can't
leave me here alone.

Well, maj is with ya.

Well, you'll be right back,
won't ya ?
Sure.

I'll bring back
some food too.

[ Chattering ]

Got him !

Oh !
Got him. Ah.

Shoot.

Hmm ?
Just me.

Did you get anything ?

Yeah.
What'd you get ?

Eeew.
What is it ?

Snails.
I found them under a rock
next to the river.

You eat 'em ?
Sure.

People eat 'em all the time.
They're really special.

They look horrible.
Let me see you eat one.

No, I've already had mine.
I'm not hungry anymore.

I would have rather
have had fish.

Oh, well, I caught one,

but I decided
to let it go.

But these are better
for you anyway.

Well--
no, that's okay.

I-- I guess I'm not
very hungry anymore either.

Did you see anything ?
No.

I'm gonna go
on a scouting trip
right now.

I'm gonna find out
where we are.

Napoleon.
Don't worry.
Maj is here with ya.

I'm just gonna go over
to the next Ridge.

I'll bet that's where
Danny's place is, okay ?
Okay.

Good.

[ Bird cawing ]

[ Growling ]

Major !
Now you sit down !
Do you hear me ?

Major, where are
you going ?

Come back here.
Napoleon !

Major !

What's gotten into you anyway ?
You wanna get us more lost ?

[ Bells clanking ]

[ Bleating ]

Napoleon !

Napoleon !

Danny !

Danny !

[ Bleating ]

Danny !

It's me, Napoleon !

Hey !
Hey, Napoleon ! Hey !

We're coming
to visit you !
Danny !

Danny !
Danny, we found you !

Danny, I'm so glad
we found ya.

You crazy kids.
How'd you get here ?

- Over the mountains.
- Over the mount--

do you know how lucky you are ?
I could've been 100 Miles
from here.

Well, we were attacked
by a bear and a Mountain lion,
and we got lost.

Now wait a minute.
What happened ?

What about your Uncle
and your parents ?

Danny,

could we have
something to eat ?

And some milk
for maj ?
Sure. Okay.

But I wanna hear
the whole story,
all right ?

You should have told me
the truth about your Uncle.

You mean you have no idea
where he is now ?

Well, why can't I come up
and live with you, Danny ?

Because it's not that simple.
For one thing, Samantha's here.

Gertrude's probably got in touch
with your family by now.
Can you imagine how they feel ?

I only wanted to help
Napoleon get here. I was
gonna go home after that.

Right, right.
But in the meantime,
they're worried sick.

It's all right to do your own
thing, but when somebody gets
hurt, that's something else.

Well, I'm not gonna live
in town anymore.

And if you don't want me,

me and maj'll just go live
up with the Indians
like my grandpa did.

Napoleon,
it's not a game.

Now, I'd like ya here.
It's just not possible.

I really don't wanna go back
to any dumb old orphanage.

- Orphanage ?
- Yeah, he's scared
of orphanages.

[ Chuckles ]
Orphanage is like--

it's a dirty word
you read in storybooks.
They're not like that.

Look, there's a lot of kids
like you, all right ?
And that's too bad.

But there's also
good, kind people...

Who gather you together
and make a family
and a nice home.

A place where
everybody has friends,
and you play games.

And you get
an education.
School ?

Look, don't knock it.
Without education,
you're nothing.

You get an education,
you can do anything you want.

And the thing
you should want to do most
right now is be useful.

- You know what I mean
by being useful ?
- I think so.

Danny, are you useful ?

[ Chuckles ]

Well, um-- no, I wouldn't say
I'm useful, not right now, but--

well, I do other things
around here besides
tend goats, you know ?

I, uh, I think,

study and... I'll get
my master's degree soon.

What's that ?
Never mind.

The point is that
if I can still go to school,
so can Napoleon.

And then later on, you can be
with the Indians, a sea captain,
a cowboy, anything you want.

But what about maj ?

Major can stay here with me,
and you can come up
and visit him when you want.

All right ?

Well,
I don't know, Danny.

Napoleon.

Can I think about it ?

Yeah. Sure.
You think about it.

Danny, what about me ?

You.

[ Sighs ]
Right after supper,

I'll head into town,
and catch a nap
on the way.

In the morning
I'll talk to gertrude,

and we'll get the whole thing
straightened out, all right ?

- Are we going with ya ?
- [ Danny ]
No, sir. No way.

I think once across
the mountains is enough.

Besides, I got
a baby-sitter for ya.
[ Together ] a baby-sitter !

Yeah. His name's mark.

Came out of nowhere
a few days ago,
just like you.

[ Napoleon ]
Well, where is he ?
I don't know.

He's probably in the woods.
He spends a lot of time there.
I think you'll like him.

[ Roars ]
[ Gasping ]
He's kinda quiet.

[ Panting ]
There is--
[ Danny laughing ]

Mark, you look like
you just saw a lion.

[ Panting ]
Don't worry about it.

He's as tame as a pussycat.
Belongs to the two kids.
He's really tame.

His name's major.
Come here, major !

I'll introduce you to him.
[ Chuckles ]

[ Panting ]
Here, major !

- Hi, mark.
- [ Panting ]

[ Growling ]

Yes, what ?
Good morning.
My name is Danny--

hey !

Lady, if you're gertrude,
i have to talk to you.

J-just a minute.
I'm alone in the house.

I-I have to put on a robe.

Uh, you stay
right there.
Okay.

[ Whispers ]
Hello, police ?

Lady ?

It's important.
It's about Samantha.

Gertrude,
she's all right.

Can you hear me ? She's okay.
I came by to tell you that.

Hello ?

All right, mister,
take it easy.

What's goin' on ?
Come on.
Up against the door.

What ?
You're under arrest.

What'd I do ?

"You have the right
to remain silent.

"If you give up the right to
remain silent, anything
you say
can and will be used...

"Against you
in a court of law.
Fellas, you got the wrong guy.

You have the right to speak to
an attorney and to have attorney
present during all questioning."

Now wait a minute.
Okay.
Come on. Let's go.

That's him !
He's the one, all right !

What did you do with them ?
Where are those poor children ?

I've been trying to tell you,
they're okay.

They're up in my cabin.
If you let me explain
and listen to me.

The chief'll do all
the listening and the talking.

You just take it easy
and don't cause any trouble,
okay ?

Gertrude !
Is he the one ?

- He certainly is !
- [ Siren wailing ]

And if he's harmed
one hair on her head, I'll--

iva, will you drive me
to the police station ?

Indeed I will.
Let me get the car.

Okay,
give me five minutes.

That all you got ?
That's all.

The chief'll be here
in a few minutes. His wife
said he was on his way.

All right, Pete,
get him printed.

Come on, this way.

See if there's
a make on him.

Right hand first.

[ Chattering ]

[ Woman ]
Are the kids
all right ?

[ Man ]
Where'd they catch him ?

Come on, gertrude.
You step right up
and tell them !

Well, did you get it
out of him ?

Where are they ?

[ Desk sergeant ]
All right, quiet down,
everybody.

I wanna know
where Samantha is !

Lady. Gertrude.

Gertrude,
I keep telling everybody,
but nobody's listening.

The kids are up
at my cabin.
They're fine.

I don't know what all
this hassle's all about.

Look, fella,
two kids have disappeared.

An old man lies dead and buried
in his own backyard.

And you were there,
right ?
Right.

So you got a lot of questions
to answer, so take it easy.

All right.
Come on, Pete.
Stay out of it.

Let the chief handle it.
Come on, everybody.
Let's move it.

I'm not going anywhere until
I know Samantha's safe.
And neither am I !

[ Crowd chattering ]

All right, you.
Come on. Sit down
over here.

You know, you guys
are really beautiful.

All you have to do is send
somebody up to the cabin.
This whole mess'd be over.

Look, fella, if everything
is as cool as you say it is,
there's no hurry.

So let's just wait till
the chief gets here, okay ?

All right, all right.
We'll do everything
by the book.
That's right.

[ Officer dialing
rotary telephone ]

Hey, fella. Sit down.
Wait a minute.
Look at this.

This guy, this psycho,
he's up there with the kids.
Will you listen to me ?

He's dangerous.
It says it right here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

What are you trying to pull ?
I'm telling you the truth.
We gotta get up there !

- Will you let go of me
and listen ?
- Fella, take it easy !

Just wait till the chief
gets back, and we'll be
all right.

Hey !
[ Women screaming ]

[ Shouting, screaming ]

Stop him !
Don't let him get away !

Out of my way !
Hey, watch it !

There he goes.
I got him.

Get back inside.
Put out an a.P.B.

Take your car
and cover the other side.

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Tires screeching ]

[ Tires screeching ]

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Tires screeching ]

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Car horns honking ]

Hey, buddy !
[ Yells ]

[ Man ]
He's got my cycle.

[ Woman screaming ]
[ Man ]
hey, slow down, buddy !

- What are you doing ?
Get out of here !
- Whoa !

You harebrained punk !
Look out !

[ Woman ]
Oh, get out of here !

[ Woman screams ]

[ Truck horn honking ]

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Motorcycle horn beeping ]

Car two, repeat.
I don't read you.

He's on a cycle.
He's headed north
on number 27.

Should we, uh,
set a roadblock ?
Over.

Uh, check and advise.

All right, see what you can
find out about him.
Is that Pete ?
Yes, sir.

Car two, whatever you do,
don't take your eyes off him.

We'll set up a roadblock
at Dawson's Ridge.
Roger.

Put Adams and susskind
on it too.
Right.

This could turn out
to be a big deal.

If we lose sight of him now,
he could take off anywhere
up there in the brush.

Do you want me to call
the state patrol ?
Yeah.

And, uh, chief Thomas
at carsonville.

Let's get everybody on it.
Notify the airport.
Get a copter ready for me.

I'll be there
in ten minutes.
Okay.

H.C.G. 440, this is 22.
Request copter.
Stand by.

[ Siren wailing ]

Slow down !
Slow down !
Hey !

Hey, fella !

Hey, what do you think
this is, a racetrack ?

Nut !

Get that dozer
out of the way !
Hey, what's goin' on ?

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Siren continues ]

There he goes.

Look out !
[ Screams ]

[ Pete ]
Are you okay ?

[ Driver ]
I don't know. Why don't you
guys learn to drive that thing ?

[ Grunting ]

[ Pete ]
A jeep.
Let's take it.

[ Man ]
Hey, where you going
with my jeep ?

Don't worry about it.

Easy. Easy.
Take it away.

Oh !
Hey, you !
Hey, you !

Come back here !

[ Jeep horn honking ]

Go ahead. Go ahead.
Look out !

[ Truck horn honking ]

Go get him, boys.
Right through here.

Up there !

[ Helicopter whirring ]

[ Groans ]

[ Helicopter whirring ]

[ Panting ]

Okay, we've got you.
Go ahead.

Chief, Mike.
Yeah ?

About the escaped psycho,
he's a Lulu.

Just give it
to me straight !
Yes, sir.

He escaped ten days ago.

He used to live in carsonville,
so he could be in our area.
Over and out.

How do you like that ?
The guy was tellin'
the truth.

He sure was.
Hey, look !

He didn't want us to nail him
till he got us up here.

Take her down quick.
Close to the cabin.
Right.

[ Grunts ]

Take it easy.
Take it easy.
[ Mark shouting ]

[ Samantha ]
Hi, Danny.

Hi, Dan.
What's all the noise about ?

Sounds like a helicopter
or something.

Where did mark go ?

[ Panting ]
You kids all right ?
Sure.

Hey, it was a helicopter,
wasn't it ?

Yeah.
[ Panting ]

What's been going on here ?
Just a game.

Then all the noise
and mark ran out like
he was scared or something.

We were his prisoners,
and he was a wicked giant.

Wait a minute. Hold on.
Wait a minute. Hold on.

Nothing's wrong,
is it, Danny ?
Everything's gonna be all right.

Sam, look.
It's the police.

[ Samantha ]
What are they doing
with mark ?

Are they taking him
to jail ?

No, they're just taking him
to a hospital.

A hospital ?
Yes.

You see, mark's been sick.

The hospital thinks it's better
if he came back with them.

Gosh ! He sure
didn't look sick to me.

[ Engine starts ]

You know,
he was the best giant
I ever played with.

[ Napoleon ]
Good-bye, mark !

You mean, we get to ride
back in a helicopter ?
That's what I said.

But the lion'll have to
stay up here with you,
for this trip anyway.

No. No more.
Thank you.
You sure ?

We got through
to Samantha's parents.

They'll be
at the airport.
Good.

They're home !
Napoleon !

Next time you're in town,
stop by my office.

I'll serve the coffee.
Okay.

Danny ! Napoleon,
he's run away again !

What ?

See.
There he goes.

[ Danny ]
Let me see.
Maybe I can handle it.

Okay.

Napoleon !

Where ya goin' ?

I thought
we had a deal.

No. I just said
I'd think it over, Danny.

I decided...

I better go live
with the Indians...

On account of major
and all.

[ Grunts ]

There aren't
any Indians around here.

Not anymore.

Yes, there are.
I'll show ya.

Just over this Mountain.

[ Danny ]
Boy, it's a big world, huh ?

Nobody can
make it alone.

We all need people
to help us.

Mark needs people
to help him, and they will.

You'll need people
to help you.

Trust them, Napoleon.

Trust me.
