I've got the vibes.

This thing is evil,

Man.

I got a bad feeling.

Shut up and keep moving.

Is big mistake.

Let it go, Man.

We set it down,

And we let it go.

It's only a bloody monkey,

For christ's sake.

Now pick it up.

Listen,

You no pick up the cage,

You no get

The big dollars.

Ooh!

Grr!

Holy sh*t!

Don't move!

What are these buggers

Playing at?

He says that that monkey

Must be set free.

He says we must leave

This valley

And never return,

Or the evil spirits

Will exact their revenge.

Permit.

Look and see. Permit.

Permit!

I'm a new zealand

Zoo official,

And this monkey is going

To new town.

Oh! Aah! Aah!

No.

No!

Move it!

Start her up! Quick!

Hey!

Wait!

Drive, You buggers!

Ow!

Man, Wait.

Step on it!

The little bugger bit me.

Zingaya.

Zingaya!

You've got the bite.

There's... There's some

Dettol in the jeep.

Aw, Jeez! No!

No! What are you doing?!

Zingaya.

Oh, Jee... Oh!

Zingaya!

Thank you.

HI, Paquita.

Good morning, Roger.

That's the lot.

Tell your dad I'll be

Round on thursday

With the saveloys.

That's a pretty dress,

Paquita.

See you later,

Alligator.

You like that boy,

Paquita?

Shuffle the cards.

We will see

If you and roger

Are destined

To be together.

Create his image

In your mind

And cut the cards.

Paquita,

I thought we'd seen

The last of this.

Whenever he come,

You start over again.

This...

Is you.

And this...

Is the man

Of your future.

But he doesn't look

Like roger.

It is not roger.

There will be

One romance,

And it shall last

Forever.

Romance. Puh.

What about money?

This man will enter

Your life...

In the near future.

And you will become...

Romantically entangled

With him

Almost immediately.

But who is it?

You will recognize

This man...

By the symbol...

Of the star...

And of the moon.

What is this?

Oh! No, Not that one.

Paquita,

We have a customer.

It is bad, Yes?

Oh, Nothing.

Paquita!

Uh, Just dropping off

Our order.

Mum says to pack

The biscuits on top,

Because she doesn't

Want any broken.

Uh, Actually...

I'll take

One of these now.

Sorry.

Santa maria.

I better be off,

Then.

Woman:
Lionel!

Lionel!

Woman on radio:

Good morning, Everybody.

Morning, Everybody.

Well, Now I'd like...

There's a beetle.

Eh?

There. Under the fridge.

Horrid little creature

Scuttled right in front of me.

I thought I told you

To spray this house!

The place is infested

With vermin.

I'll get on it

Straight away, Mum.

Lionel!

You'll be pleased

To know

That your mother has been

Voted treasurer elect

Of the w.L.W. L...

The wellington ladies

Welfare league.

Ah, That's great, Mum.

And on friday,

The president

Nora matheson

Is dropping by to offer

Her congratulations.

Wow. The president.

Oh, God!

Look at the state

Of this place!

All the windows

Will have to be polished.

Woman on radio:
Whiter,

Brighter, Cleaner wash.

Look at this dust!

It's an inch thick!

You'll have to do

The silver.

I polished it

Last week.

And the drapes

Need cleaning.

Woman on radio:

Once a week, Once a month...

I just mowed

The lawn.

Does this look like

A well-Maintained frontage?

Woman on radio:
Very often

After drying the dishes...

Get up,

You stupid dog.

Here,

I'll help you.

No. I manage.

Your brother usually does

The deliveries.

Not today.

Ohh. Is big house.

You live here always?

Yeah.

You like my dog?

Is very big, Yes?

Any bigger,

And he'd belong in a zoo.

Zoo? Pardon?

Zoo. You know.

Uh... Animals.

Cages.

Claro.

I like to go with zoo.

I go with the zoo?

Oh, No. No, No.

You want to go

To the zoo.

Yes, Please.

Oh, Ok.

Tomorrow?

I'll meet you outside

The shop.

Ok.

I have to go.

My jardiniere.

It's shattered.

Ah, Mum,

That was your favorite.

It wouldn't have happened

If you'd dusted carefully.

I can get you another one.

It's irreplaceable.

A present

From your father.

Our last

Wedding anniversary.

Before...

He was taken from us.

I miss him, Too.

Look.

Cary grant.

He is such a dream.

I wish I could be

Grace kelly.

She is so pretty.

Such beautiful

Blond hair.

Lionel?

What is wrong?

Uh, Sorry.

When I was young,

I was at the beach,

And I...

I nearly drowned

When I fell off

This pier.

Uh, My dad dived in

To save me, But...

As he was climbing out,

This...

Freak wave just...

Washed him out to sea,

And...

He drowned.

Oh, The little monkeys!

Look, Lionel.

There! For you!

Poor little bugger.

You get out of there,

You vicious little sh*t!

Reckon they're only found

On one island, You know?

Story goes,

These great big rats...

Come scuttling off

The slave ships...

And raped all

The little tree monkeys.

You know,

The natives use them

In black magic rituals.

Really?

Yeah.

Don't ask me how.

Probably suck the blood

Of virgins, Eh? Eh?

I want to sit down.

Holy sh*t!

Look at this.

It bit me.

I've been savaged.

And my dress.

Here. I help you.

Lionel...

Take me home.

There you are, Vera.

Now you just rest up.

I'll be back

In a couple of days

To change

That dressing.

Thanks,

Nurse mctavish.

It's all right,

Lionel.

I'll see myself out.

Why have you

Deliberately

Gone out of your way

To upset me?

I'm sorry.

It won't happen again.

I don't deserve

All this attention, Darling.

If you need anything

During the night,

You just call.

You're so good to me.

Good night, Mum.

Lionel!

Hello!

Keep your voice down.

Look.

I have your jacket.

Yeah.

I'll get it tomorrow.

What?

Look.

It could've waited

Till the morning.

Is that all

You have to say?

Look, I'm really sorry

About the zoo, Paquita.

It's just mum.

She's...

You know.

I'd like to...

We go out again?

To a movie?

But it's not...

It's just not possible.

Look...

Not possible?

But we are romantically

Entangled.

Entangled?

Oh, Look...

Look, I don't know

What you're thinking,

But, Um...

I just can't see you

Anymore.

Oh, Paquita.

There will be

One romance...

And it shall last

Forever.

Mum, What a beautiful day.

I'm gonna call

Nurse mctavish.

No. You'll do

No such thing.

I'm perfectly

All right.

But...

You look after me,

Lionel.

Nora matheson.

Expecting us.

The mathesons are here.

No, Mum.

You're not well!

Get my dress!

Jeez.

Please go back to bed,

Mum.

I'll put them off.

It's only the mathesons.

It's the w.L.W.L.

Sorry.

Careful.

It'll stick on crooked.

Ok.

Our...

Main objective

Next year,

Is to...

Get the younger

Generation

Involved

In the league.

Any thoughts

On the agenda for

The annual meeting?

Annual meeting.

Annual meeting.

Another war!

Yes, Dear.

Planning an attempt

On the south pole.

A few of those, Lad.
