Curious George Page #2

You've stepped into the right place.

Isn't that right, Nigel?

I'll say it is, Steve-O.

Finally, a real adventurer to suit up.

- So do you like the colour yellow?

- Yellow?

Yeah, what, are you goofy?

Yellow's the new khaki.

- Mate.

- Really? Well, okay.

- You've got to be kidding.

- Look at that get-up.

Hello, who are you, the six-foot banana?

"The new khaki. "

Thank you! Thank you very much!

I look like an idiot.

- Edu.

- Yes, sir?

Don't worry the other men,

but we're hopelessly lost.

Sir, your book is upside down.

- Oh. Oh, good catch. Carry on.

- Thank you, sir.

- Wow. What is it?

- That's interesting.

- Look at this.

- Beautiful.

Look at the colour.

Edu, do you see this?

- Yes, it's...

- Exciting! We are so close.

- Edu.

- Mr Ted.

It says here "Zagawa" means enlightenment.

- I know, sir. I live here.

- Oh, right.

Did you know the statue we're looking for

is a giant monkey?

- Yes, sir. I live here.

- Right again.

- Oh, a rhino.

- Sir?

- Stand aside, men.

- Mr Ted.

This is a tranquilizer gun.

I'm just going to put him to sleep.

That's not a rhino. That's a...

Nice shot, Mr Ted.

Oops! Okay, let's break for lunch...

for the next four to six hours...

or longer,

depending on how much he weighs.

I should probably make a sandwich for Edu.

He'll have quite an appetite

and a headache when he wakes up.

This is really good.

Hey!

Oh, a monkey. Hey, there, little guy.

Can I have my hat, please?

I kind of need my hat.

Sun's hot, and I freckle.

Not the good kind either. I blotch.

So please, my hat.

That's the one, all right.

Hello. Anybody in there?

Peekaboo.

Peekaboo.

Peekaboo.

Aboo. Aboo.

Well, look at that.

A monkey who likes to play peek-a-boo.

Hey, this was fun, my little friend,

but, sorry, I've got to go.

I wonder if Edu's up yet.

Hey! Come back here.

You can run, but you can't hide.

I'll catch up. I am unstoppable.

That's right. I can run all night.

All day and all night.

There's nothing that can stop...

Cramp! Cramp. Cramp can stop me.

Why the cramp? Extra-bad cramp, too.

What? What...

Okay, I have an idea.

We'll trade. Sandwich for the hat.

On three.

One, two, three!

Okay.

We're not really making any progress here.

Okay. Oh, yeah.

191, 192, 193, 194.

Not now, monkey.

196, 197, one-ninety-monkey.

199, 200.

Okay, "Look for two mufuti bushes,

and you will find X."

- There, sir. Mufutis.

- Good eye, Edu.

Here, hold this.

There it is. It's awesome. It's spectacular.

It's... Gone?

What? This can't be it.

Did you find it, sir?

It's supposed to be huge.

But that isn't huge, okay?

That's the opposite of huge.

I need the giant monkey.

Who knew it was actual size?

Wait. This looks like ancient Swatabi.

"Turn your eye to the light.

"Go from blindness to sight. "

That's a clue.

"Turn your eye to the light. "

All right, I'm looking directly into the sun.

It's very bright. It's starting to sting.

Not going to lie to you.

Okay, now...

Now, it's burning, and it's continuing...

Oh, I singed my cornea. Oh, I'm blind.

Okay, water, H20,

just a little liquid refreshment, please.

Oh, there it is. Oh, sweet relief.

Thank you, Edu.

Edu, Edu, Edu.

All right, men, let's pick it up.

I'll be over here until my vision returns.

I travelled 10,000 miles for a paper weight?

What am I going to tell Mr Bloomsberry?

Bloomsberry? Wow. Strong signal.

- Hello?

- Ted, it's me. Have you found it yet?

Yeah, I'm looking at it right now.

Oh, that's great. Is it gigantic?

Well, there is a size issue, sir.

I'll send you a photo

so you can see for yourself.

I can't wait.

Do you see it, sir?

I do.

Oh, sir. Are you crying?

It's supposed to be 40 feet tall.

I'll explain it all when I get back.

No need to. I can see it right here.

I can't believe it.

Do you see that, Junior?

It's even bigger than I ever imagined!

Well, that's impossible. I...

I can't believe he...

Hurray. We're saved.

Mr Ted, time to go.

You know what? Keep the hat.

Hey, don't look so sad.

It's the new khaki. It's true. Bye.

Edu, I can't find the seat belt.

Will that be a problem?

Not for me.

- Edu, it's okay to use the break.

- Oh, relax.

I want to be

where the talk of the town

Is about last night when the sun went down

Yeah, and the trees all dance

And the warm wind blows

in the same old sound

And the trouble I find

is that the trouble finds me

I'm beginning to find

it begins with a dream

And a feeling I get when I look and I see

That this world is a puzzle

Find all of the pieces

And put it all together

Then I'll rearrange it

I'll follow it forever

And maybe

Maybe now the water below

gives a gift to the sky

And the clouds give back

every time they cry

Make the grass grow green beneath my toes

And if the sun comes out

Gonna paint a picture all about

The colours I've been dreaming of

Mr Bloomsberry...

I would just like to say in my defence that...

Sir, when we set out...

on certain adventures in life...

sometimes...

Sometimes, they don't quite go as planned.

I'm extra sorry.

Oh, boy.

Maybe I could just work on this ship...

be a deckhand or a chef.

I'm so glad I upgraded.

Oh, the knee! There's the forehead!

Knee-forehead combo.

No, no, no,

not the honey-roasted goodness.

And there's the head again.

Hey, it's a monkey with a hat!

I'll just go ahead

and put that under "Miscellaneous. "

Well, I'm just people watching

The other people watching me

- Where you going, Yellow?

- Bloomsberry Museum, please.

You know, I'll give you $10 extra

if you'll stop calling me Yellow.

You got it, Sunshine.

There really ain't no use in stopping

What nobody never told me not to do

So I'll keep people watching

Watching me now

Finding my way back to you

For crying out loud, lady,

there's no screaming in cabs.

We're all as lonely as we wanted to be

Hey, yo, over here.

Just as lonely as we wanted to be

Wait! What does that say?

"The Lost Shrine of Zagawa"? "Gigantic"?

Oh, that's not right at all.

"The shrine is 40 feet tall"?

I know. That bad boy's a monster.

I can't wait to see it.

I'm taking the whole family.

Yeah, well, I hope you get seats up front.

Yo! Over here!

Puppies!

No, watch the claws. Watch the claws.

Yeah, sure,

I've seen everything in this town.

Oh, yeah, monkey? Seen it.

I'm as lonely as I wanted to be

We're as lonely as we wanted to be

We're as lonely as we wanted to be

Construction. Of all the luck...

You know what? Sir, I'll just get out

right here. Right, this will work.

I'm just going to go home,

call Mr Bloomsberry...

- and explain everything, right?

- Sure. Whatever. $12.50, pal.

Sorry.

Okay, I'm moving.

- Watch out!

- Hey, what, you couldn't see me? Right.

Hey, there, Ivan.

Good talk. Take care.

Home.

Okay, I just need two seconds of quiet.

All right, I didn't mean literally.

- Hello?

- Ted!

Hi, Mr Bloomsberry.

I just walked in the door.

Well, get down here.

All the news reporters are here.

I've arranged a press conference
