You obligated be with me?

Mimi. Mimi? Mimi!

Mimi, come here! Stop!

Come back here! Whoop!

Mimi, I didn't mean that!

You said "obligated"!

I didn't mean that.

Now, stop! Look out!

Mimi, come on!

Get out of the street! Come on!

Get out of the street!

I want to go home.

You not want Mimi Siku here!

I want you here.

I'm sorry.

Look, stop, stop.

Look.

Sorry I said that stuff.

I was just angry.

You always angry at me.

"Don't do this! Don't do that!"

This is New York.

This is a dangerous jungle.

- Mimi Siku not scared. Mimi Siku a man.

- No, you're not a man.

You are an adolescent.

- Adolescent?

- Yes. An adolescent.

You don't have a wife.

You don't have a family to support.

You are free to do

whatever you want.

You're an adolescent.

What? No, no, no, no!

I am not an adolescent.

I'm a man.

- I'm a man too.

- Not here you're not a man.

You're a 13-year-old boy

running around in a loincloth.

I'm a man too!

Okay, okay. You're right.

You are a man.

But you're gonna have

to learn what men do in my jungle.

And you have to learn

how to breathe when you run.

Okay, first lesson.

Ooh!

You wanna go some place

in my village,

all you gotta do

is wave your arm.

Wave your arm.

- Magic.

- Magic if he understands English.

- Fulton Fish Market on "ze" double.

- Okay.

W- Where is he?

Richard, this guy gets

very upset when you're late.

Yes, well, he's gonna be here.

He's obviously delayed-

Here he is! Okay.

- Get your stuff. Get out the other side.

- Thank you very much.

- You call this a tip?

- Mimi, watch traffic when you're comin' around.

- What took you-

- We're meeting this guy at a fish stall?

No, he is above

a fish stall.

Much better.

- Ooh!

- I love what they've done with the place.

Let me tell you something.

This guy has a lot of money.

He's the king of caviar,

and he's gonna save our asses.

So you just play your hunches

and let me play mine.

Okay, okay. Now, listen up.

When you get to the top of the stairs,

ring the bell once,

knock twice,

then ring three times.

Okay.

Don't forget.

What happened

to his fingers?

He rang four times.

Good luck.

Ring twice, knock once,

ring three times, okay.

- Oh, boy.

- Okay, um, okay.

- So it is-

- What? What?

- Ring twice.

- Ring twice.

- Knock once and then ring three times.

- You sure it's three?

Yes, it's definitely three times.

Okay.

Okay, that's wrong.

- So what we do- Ring three times.

- I'm not sure-

- Knock once and ring twice.

- No, it-

- Yeah, yeah.

- We're gonna get shot.

Uh-uh. It's gonna be fine.

It's gonna be good.

That really worked great. I remember

differently now. I got what it is.

- All right, Mr. Wizard. Take over.

- Ring twice.

- Take over.

- You knock once.

- And ring-

- No! You do not ring 4 times.

Open damn door!

Chort vozmi!

- Hi there. I am, uh-

- Hi.

Don't say a word.

I know, I know.

Let me introduce

my comrades to you.

Stand up.

Thank you. Sit down.

Come! We talk beans.

Sit, sit.

Coffee on market

now 83 cents one pound.

I pay you 85 cents one pound.

- Why you take trade?

- Shh! - Uh, Michael.

- 85 cents more than 83 cents?

- Yes, it is.

- Tell wild child to shut up!

- Hey!

He's just a kid.

Listen, he's an unusual kid.

- Not now, Mama.

- So we have a deal then?

I want guarantee

the price not drop below 75.

- You got it.

- Wait a minute!

There are no guarantees.

This is speculation.

I know speculation.

He knows speculation, for heaven's sake.

When can we expect payment?

This is lovely.

Look, Richard, it's cash.

Oh, my.

Take!

Look, um, would it be possible

to talk to my partner in private?

Of course.

- Richard, let's go.

- Ooh!

It'll just take a moment.

Richard, are you

out of your mind?

Now we're laundering money

for the Russian Mafia?

Yes, we are.

And we'll iron it for them too.

- Him big buradu.

- Yes, he is.

Come on, Mimi.

Let's go.

- You cannot walk away on this, please.

- No deal.

- Think about this for one second!

- Just get us out of this.

- All right. Oh!

- Problem?

Oh, no. No, no.

Not at all. Uh-

Mr. Cromwell had

to take his son home.

But he thinks you're

a stand-up guy, Mr. J.

- He feels that-

- My name is...

Alex Vasili Sergei

Fyodor Jovanovic.

Not Mr. J.

It's a good name.

We have deal?

We have deal?

We have deal?

Mmm.

- Here you go.

- Thanks, buddy.

Now this is America, huh?

- Mmm!

- Tastes like lizard guts.

Oh, lizard guts.

# Tell them goodbye #

Many tribes in your village,

Baboon.

Yeah, I guess there are.

- Music.

- What? What?

# And turn it around #

# Now, baby #

# It's my life #

- # Do what I want #

- # Oh, yeah #

# I take what I want #

# Show me some time #

Come on, Baboon!

We dance!

I don't dance in public.

Come. I'll show you.

# It's my life

I do what I want #

# It's my life

I'll give what I want #

# It's my life, oh, yeah

I'll do what I want #

# It's my life #

# I'll do what I want, baby

It's my life #

# Give me what I want now

It's my life #

# Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah #

# It's my life #

# It's my life

I can do what I want #

# It's my life

It's only my life #

# Na, na, na, na #

# Na-na, na, na, na-na #

# It's my life

I can do what I want, yeah ##

Pretty cool. I haven't danced like that

since I was a little kid.

Oh. You'll get used

to those shoes.

Huh? Here. Why don't you

give her the flowers?

Charlie, how'd

that interview go?

- You home, Charlie?

- Michael, I'm in here!

- Charlie?

- I've been in this bathroom for hours!

- Make sure you open a window.

- Michael!

Michael, I'm being attacked

by a giant spider!

Oh! I can see it!

Move away from the door!

Move away from the door!

- Grab this thing. Come on. Come on.

- Do something!

I'm doing something. I'm gonna fight it.

Stay away from the door!

Look at that.

Oh, it's a big one! It's a big one!

- Be careful!

- I'm gonna put it in the wastebasket.

Don't come out here yet.

It's still moving.

- Put the thing back in its box.

- What?

It's as big as an ox!

You bad girl, Myteka.

Stay here.

To him it's like a pet.

No, no, no. A dog is a pet, Michael.

A cat is a pet!

Although for your son, a cat

is a dietary supplement as well.

We'll just keep him

out on the balcony.

How do you know it hasn't already

laid eggs in the apartment?

I'll have the place

fumigated.

What if they miss one

and it crawls into my ear...

while I'm sleeping

and lays its eggs in my brain?

We'll have to have them

come back and spray again.

This is serious! We have to move!

- You're blowing this out of proportion.

- Oh!

Ian. Great.

I've really missed you.

Is Charlotte all right?

Look, if something dramatic

has happened, it should be on film.

I have a shoot tomorrow which

I was unable to prepare for...

because I was trapped in the bathroom

all day by his son's pet spider.

So I'll be spending the night

at the loft to make up for lost time.

So the appearance of little Mowgli

is straining the relationship?
