used to be really uptight.

What happened?

She found a wonderful shrink.

Psychiatrist.

I shouldn't have made that crack

about the lunatic asylum.

Didn't know she was nuts.

Of course, she's not nuts.

People go to a psychiatrist

to talk about their problems.

She just needed to unload them.

You know, bring them

out in the open.

Hasn't she got any mates?

You're right. Guess we

could all use more mates.

I suppose you don't have any

shrinks at Walkabout Creek?

No. Back there, if you got

a problem, you tell Wally.

And he tells everyone in town,

brings it out in the

open, no more problem.

Richard! You could

make it this evening.

Wendell, good to see you.

And I don't believe I

know your daughter.

- Oh, stop it!

- Oh, Richard!

Ladies and gentlemen.

Friends. Welcome home, Sue.

As... As you can see, we're

all glad to have you back.

Of course, no one more than I.

I guess everyone in this room

knows how this beautiful lady

and I I feel about each other.

Sue's come back to us,

delivered, literally, out

of the jaws of death

by our new-found friend,

Mr. Michael J. Dundee.

A man... A man to whom

I am doubly indebted.

Of course, not only did he bring

back to me the woman that I love,

but he managed to

increase the circulation

of the newspaper in the process.

You know, uh...

Sam said to me earlier,

"You're her editor."

"Can't you stop her from taking

all these dangerous assignments?"

Well, quite obviously, I have

not had a great deal of success

influencing her as her editor.

Perhaps I'll have more

success as her husband.

- If she'll have me.

- Oh, Richard.

Congratulations.

It's a pleasure having

you here to share this.

Well done. Well done.

Thank you very much. I couldn't

have done it without your help.

Sweetheart?

I'll get in the back, Gus.

To the hotel, Mick?

Yeah, Gus, by way

of a liquor store.

For medicinal purposes.

Thanks, mate.

Hey, you take care, now.

Hey, buddy.

Get it into you, pop.

God bless you. You

saved my life, really.

Hey, Simone.

You want some action?

Uh, I thought you

were somebody else.

Well, if it ain't the

man who don't like

bad f***ing language

in front of ladies.

What's the matter, Aussie boy?

You going to make like a

kangaroo and hop away?

Time for a little tap dance.

You okay, Mick?

Oh, yeah, Gus. No worries.

I was just getting on top of them.

You sure you're not

Pintinjarra tribe?

No, man. Harlem Warlords.

I knew you were tribal.

Mick Dundee's room, please.

I'm sorry. He's still

not answering.

Uh, he called down this morning

to say he was checking out today.

We're going to miss

him around here.

Thanks.

Thank you, sir.

G'day, Irving. How are you, mate?

Oh, yeah. I wouldn't

be dead for dollars.

Close.

Are you leaving us, Mick?

You going back home?

Ah, no. I thought I'd go Walkabout.

Huh?

Wander around,

take a look at America.

For how long?

Long as it takes.

What's the quickest

way out of town?

Well, if you're looking

for adventure,

there's a subway two

blocks that way.

It'll take you to Grand

Central Station.

That'll do. Uh...

Have a nice day, Oiving.

Uh, no worries, mate.

- Morning, Miss.

- Morning.

Are you sure you know

what you're doing?

No, but it will come to me.

Incidentally, Miss, if you're

looking for Crocodile Mick,

he's gone walkabout.

I don't suppose you know where?

Yeah. He's headed for the

subway two blocks down.

You'd better hurry.

Mind this for me.

Oh, Christ.

Hey, lady, where you going?

If you want to play, why

don't you play with me?

Mick!

Mick Dundee!

- Ooowweee!

- What's up, lady?

I got to talk to that

man down the end.

The one in the black hat.

Hey!

Lady here wants to talk to

the guy in the black hat!

Hey, fella!

You in the hat!

The lady down the end

wants to see you!

What does she want?

What does she want?

What do you want?

Tell him not to leave.

I'm not going to marry Richard.

Tell him don't leave. She's

not going to marry Richard.

Don't leave. I'm not

going to marry Richard.

Why not?

I don't know.

Why not?

Why not?

Tell him I love him.

I love you!

I love ya!

I love ya! I love ya!

She loves me.

Well?

Um, tell her I...

I'll tell her meself.

I'm coming through.

He's coming through!

He's coming through!

It's too crowded. We're

jammed in like sheep.

Up, up, up.

Coming through!
