Flipper's New Adventure Page #4

somewhere in an open skiff,

half dead.

Don't you understand?

I think I do,

Mr. Ricks.

I'm the father

of a boy myself.

If you'd like

to sit down,

relax,

and wait...

Wait? I'll hire

my own search plane.

No. I'm sorry.

We can't let you

do that either.

We have our reasons.

We also have reason

to believe

that the situation may

improve very quickly.

Let's both hope so.

Sir.

Excuse me.

Hey, Gil.

Want some more food

on board?

There's a bunch of cans

drifting in there.

It looks like

they popped up

from that

cabin cruiser we sunk.

Well, we got a few more

mouths to feed...

don't know for how long.

Better go and get them.

It was a shark.

I saw it.

It was this long.

Gone.

Just like that.

All right, all right.

Get back there.

I'm tired of

looking at them.

Get 'em

in that cockpit,

tie them up

and keep them tied.

Hey, Gil.

Look at that.

How about a little

target practice?

Save your ammo.

You never know when

you may need it.

Only take one bullet.

Save it,

I told you.

What do you suppose would

make a fish act that way?

Got some kind of loco weed

in the water or something?

Sandy.

Turn around.

I'll cut you

loose.

I got one.

The other 2

are forward.

Thanks, son.

Mummy!

Halt!

Darling, I want you

to handle the boat.

Look out!

Flipper.

Quick.

Flipper. Stop them.

Twist it.

Sandy, you were

wonderful.

Thank you.

Mum, dad, Gwen,

this is Sandy.

He's been helping us

all along.

Only you

didn't know it.

Sandy, I don't know

how you did it.

I don't know how

to thank you either.

Don't thank me.

Thank Flipper.

Wasn't for Flipper,

I wouldn't have been

able to do anything.

But who's Flipper?

Flipper.

Flipper?

He's been hurt.

Coast guard radio,

San Juan,

this is WG9026.

Sir Halsey Hopewell

on the Penn Julia.

Over.

WG9026, this is coast guard

radio, San Juan. Over.

Need urgent assistance.

We have found

your three convicts.

We also need someone

who can help

with an injured dolphin.

Over.

Did you say

an injured dolphin?

That is correct,

an injured dolphin.

Stand by one.

I'll give you

our exact position.

We'll help you, Flipper.

We'll help you somehow.

Flipper,

it'll be all right.

Flipper, please

stop moving.

Pa, if Flipper

lives,

he won't have to

stay here, will he?

No, son. My Park Ranger

commission's come through.

The Coral Key

Marine Preserve...

that's where we're gonna be

living from now on.

And there'll be plenty

of room for Flipper.

He's got

to save Flipper.

He's just got to.

Well, if anybody can,

it's Dr. Burton.

That's it.

Let's see

what happens.

If Flipper swims now,

he's going

to be all right.

He's swimming.

He's going

to be all right.

He's going

to be great.

Flipper,

you're wonderful.
