I'm okay.

They're in my hair!

They're in my hair!

God in heaven! Help me!

There is nothing in your hair.

Exactly.

I was merely running a drill.

Just as I suspected.

Quinn.

What?

We met him at Cadby's soiree.

His bird is a raven, Tinky.

I found that inside the cave.

You don't understand.

Burton Quinn is a powerful man.

Worry not.

For I...

...am a master...

...of disguises.

Eat up, guys!

None of this animal goes to waste.

Mr. McCane.

How're you?

I'm doing well.

Don't mind me, Mr. Quinn.

I'm just a curious little rhino.

I appreciate your...

...agreeing to undertake this.

Meeting secretly

with sinister types much?

Ah, not too much. Ah, much too much.

Kind of hot in these rhinos.

Warm!

I had a dog and his name was...

...Bingo!

Time to get some oxygen.

Come on!

Mayday!

Must...

...have...

...air!

Come on!

Quiet, quiet, quiet. Look, look.

Oh, look!

The mother rhino is giving birth!

Oh, God.

Mommy!

Cool!

We have to get out of here!

Quick, get in the jeep.

Quick, girls, get in!

Welcome to Quinnland.

And you, too, my friend?

I know, you'll be happy here.

How did you get out, fella?

You're a cute little devil.

What you got?

Where's the bat?

What's this about?

Who are you?

Where...

...is...

...the bat?

I know who you are.

I met you at Cadby's!

You're that...

...Ventura fella!

Last chance!

Where is that darn bat?

What're you going to do?

What're you going to do?

Whatever I have to get some answers.

Stop!

Stop it!

You'd like me to stop it.

Getting to you?

I won't tell you anything.

A tough guy, huh?

I know what to do with tough guys.

My brother used to do that!

You sadistic bastard!

Stop it!

All right! I'll talk!

Spill it!

I paid Derrick McCane to find the bat.

I thought it could be an attraction.

Business has been a bit off lately.

So...

...you don't know who...

...took the bat?

Neither does McCane.

I'm going to untie you now.

Before I do, I want you

to know that I'm really...

...truly...

...very...

...sorry!

Appreciate the lift!

We'll walk from here.

Quinn is out of the picture.

We have no more suspects or clues.

But I have instincts.

And my instincts tell me

we're getting closer.

I can feel it.

I can feel it like it's right...

...in my neck!

Run!

Starting to get numb!

Three darts...

...is too much!

I think...

...I lost them!

Flowers...

...for me?

I do declare, Mr. Beauregard.

You are my hero.

Was I...

...talking in my sleep?

You've been suffering hysteria.

It's a natural reaction to the poison.

Water.

Guano bowls.

Collect the whole set.

Ace, did you see the shooter?

Only their feet.

Not enough for a positive ID.

It's the dart of a Wachootoo shaman.

The whaty whatan?

The Wachootoo shaman, or medicine man,

protests the intertribal wedding.

Does he?

You do not speak Wachootoo.

I go with you.

Ouda will be my interpreter.

Please, take care.

The Wachootoo are savages.

If they catch you, they'll be merciless.

Worry not.

I will be as a fly on the wall,

a grain of salt in the ocean.

I will slip amongst them

like a transparent...

...thing.

The sacred bat must be in a hut.

We'll never know until

I can walk freely among them.

Wunderbar!

He exclaimed with great relish.

Come on, girls, show them what you got.

I'm sure it's fine.

Ouda is probably going

for help right now.

Hello, Ace!

They found me!

No sweat!

Don't beat yourself up.

You know...

...gingivitis is the number one

cause of all tooth decay.

What does "equinsu ocha" mean?

White devil.

Tell him I'm not.

I only met you. How do I know?

- He said...

- Let me guess. "White devil"?

You speak Wachootoo?

Tell them what I'm saying:

I come in peace!

I couldn't help but notice

the "equinsu ocha" part.

Did you refer to me as "White Devil"?

That's how they know you.

Leave that part out from now on.

I represent the princess!

War...

...is hell.

The last thing we want...

...is a fight.

The chief said...

...if you pass all Wachootoo tests...

...you do not die.

Kookie.

My entrance to the winner's circle!

Your admiration is well-founded,

but I'm merely a servant.

Do not worship me!

Chief says you have passed

all tests but one.

Only left is Wachootoo Circle of Death.

Funny...

...that's my specialty.

This is it?

I have to beat him?

All righty, then!

I must tell you...

...I don't wish to fight.

Violence is no longer in my nature...

...but if you want it,

you got it, sister.

Biting, I see.

I was unaware that the Wachootoo...

...were biters!

Why don't you try this on

and see how it fits?

He much better fighter than you.

Doi!

All right!

This White Devil thing

has gone far enough.

Nobody...

...messes...

...with the "do"!

He said, "Sorry, White Devil..."

...but he must kill you.

I'll have you know

I have the reflexes of a cat.

And the speed of a mongoose.

Throw it!

I dare you!

Ouda, don't just stand there.

Throw me a spear!

It's in the bone! It's in the bone!

It's in the bone!

He says you make him laugh.

You are like sissy girl!

Wachootoo Chief say,

"You friend to Wachootoo."

But if the curse of Shikaka not lifted

by tomorrow's sun at top of sky...

...Wachootoo kill all Wachati

and smash your head on a rock.

Super.

Take care, now. Bye-bye, then.

Take care. Super. Bye-bye, then.

Are your legs sore?

Want me to carry you?

That won't be necessary.

I have a high pain threshold.

Holy monkey!

Ace, why you stopped?

The Wachootoo didn't take Shikaka.

Hi, welcome back.

What would you say this is?

Dart of Wachootoo shaman.

Precisely.

And when compared to one of the darts

that hit me before?

Same.

Only to the untrained eye.

The Wachootoo dart is made of

wood from a mimosa tree...

...while the other is carved from

a red fungus-bearing acalla.

And there's only one area

of the jungle with red...

...fungus-bearing acallas.

Go back to the village.

Tell them the Wachootoo's attack

is tomorrow at noon.

This little hound dog

just picked up a scent.

Won't be long now, Katie.

Big night tonight.

You're going to meet your new owner.

G'day.

Disgusting rat!

Gravy!

Did you hear that?

What is it?

Silverback.

Female.

Big.

About 200 meters...

...south.

We'd get $5,000 for one of those.

- What about the rat?

- Don't worry about it.

We'll be back in no time.

Stay downwind of it.

You're even uglier than I thought.

She's a big one, isn't she?

Oh, boy.

Deciduous trees on the bank.

Suman shrubs with extreme protococcus.

Steadily increasing water current.

Spike...

...I think we could assume

the stream gets pretty rough up ahead.

As soon as I get you loose,

you can chew through my ropes.

That's it!

That's it!

Yes. Your turn.

All right!

I'm alive!

I'm alive!

Say "uncle"! Say "uncle"!

Don't start what you can't finish!

Quit hitting yourself!

Quit hitting yourself!

Oh, water tastes good, yes!

This isn't over yet.

There's something I missed.

Some clue or motive I've overlooked.

And that motive is...
