Sam!
Quick, take these. Hurry.

Big Chief Red Top himself.
Don't see you since your ma's
bargain hunting at the supermarket.
Yes, sir.
I mean, no, sir.
Everybody's squeezing out
the small businessman,
and those empties don't help.
It does seem to me I get more
of these things back than I sell.
How's that grandpa of yours doing?
I haven't been to see him for awhile.
He's OK.
Well, thas six bottles. Be 12 cents.
- You want the usual?
- Yes, sir.
You should ask the lady
what she wants.
She wants the same as me.
Samantha?
Thas right.
I want the same as him.
OK. Two suckers on the house,
and the bottles and jelly beans.
But you better watch out, Napoleon.
When a woman agrees
with everything you say,
she's really got her eye out for you.
I don't think is right.
Is not stealing.
We gave him his bottles back.
But they were his bottles.
I don't eat the jelly beans myself.
They're for Charley.
Who's Charley?
Who's Charley?
Want to meet him?
Yeah.
OK. I'll take you.
But you gotta promise to help me
on exams tomorrow.
I'm not supposed to.
Well, OK.
Good. Come on.
Here, Charley!
Over here, Charley.
Come on.

Of course he does.
Here, Charley.
- What are you trying to do?
- I'm gonna get on him.
He's teaching me to ride so I can be
Your grandpa was a cowboy?
Yep, and he's part Indian too.
I don't believe you.
You can't be an Indian and a cowboy.
My grandpa can.
Here, Charley. Come on.
[Napoleon] Here's your candy, Charley.
Come on.
He can carry the two of us.
- I can't ride.
- Just hold on, OK?
Come on.
Quick, before he finishes the candy.
Hurry. He's almost finished.
- Hold on tight. He's gonna go now.
- Where to?
Across the field to the water.
The candies make him thirsty.
Come on.
[Napoleon] Giddyup. Come on.
Giddyup, Charley.
Giddyup. Come on.
- [Napoleon] See, isn't it fun?
- [Sam] Yeah.
Aren't you supposed to have
a saddle and a bridle?
No. Thas only for people
who don't know how to ride.
- Giddyup.
- Come on, Charley!
[Napoleon] Thas it!
- He likes it.
- Yeah.
Come on.
- Thanks for the ride.
- Thanks a lot, Charley.
- You're the best horse.
- Goodbye.
- [Sam] Can you see her?
- There's nobody there.
- Good. She's probably still out.
- She ever hit you for being late?
No. I don't think
housekeepers are allowed to.
She justjabbers at me a lot.
I better make a run for it, Napo...
Oh, hi, Gertrude.
So, you finally decided to come home.
Do you know what time it is?
- No, ma'am.
- [Gertrude] Is six o'clock.
I don't know what you've been
doing, but les get one thing straight.
While your mother and father are away,
and I'm responsible for you,
I expect to see you home by five.
Now, is that understood?
Yeah.
Go to your room and get changed.
You look like something
the cat dragged in.
See you, Napoleon.
[Gertrude] What have you got
all over your dress?
- [Sam] Is horse hair.
- [Gertrude] Horse hair!
Grandpa, I'm home!
I'm home, Grandpa!
- Hi, Grandpa.
- Ahoy, there, mate.
Hey, you're late.
You been behaving yourself?
I'm glad to hear that.
We've got to keep things
ship-shape around here.
- Permission to speak, sir.
- [Seth] Permission granted.
All the other kids are going
to the movies. Can we go?
Well, now, that depends.
Depends on what?
On whether or not you're going to give
your grandpa's aching back a rub.
Sure.
- Go on now, get the liniment.
- OK.
[Seth chuckles]
in a Spanish prison?
Not on your life. There wasn't
a prison in the world could hold him.
There's nothing as tough
as an old sea dog.
all the things you did, Grandpa?
Well, if you eat your vittles,
keep your curiosity up
and your wits about you, you will.
[Flute music]
- What is it, Grandpa?
- Well, darned if I know.
[Music continues]
Step right up.
Join the celebration.
Is a real live lion!
Golly!
What are you celebrating?
We are celebrating an ending,
my dear friends.
An ending? To what?
To a lifelong partnership.
Yes, and two glorious careers.
Oh, permit me.
Dimetri. The clown.
- [Drum roll]
- Da dah!
- I'm Seth Wilson.
- And I'm Napoleon.
And Major, the king of beasts.
[Dimetri] Won't you join us?
Please, I beg of you.
- Are you sure he won't object?
- Oh, no. He won't object.
He's the most kind and gentle
king of beasts.
- Would you do the honors, please?
- The honors? Oh, yes.
[Dimetri] Have you seen such a thing?
[Dimetri laughs loudly]
So, you're retiring?
Dimetri is finally going home.
To Europe.
Is the lion going with you?
Well, that is the predicament.
- That is the sadness.
- [Seth] Why?
[Napoleon] Whas the matter?
Old friends should never be separated.
You can't take him with you?
No.
[Napoleon] What are you
gonna do with him?
I am searching for a happy place.
Where his majesty will be
treated like his majesty.
You tried a zoo?
I have, I have.
They have been very kind
and helpful, but...
an old milk-drinking lion.
An old veteran ofjoy.
Hey, my grandpa used to be
a lion trainer.
That was a long time ago.
Did you work in the circus?
the Emperor of Ethiopia.
That was quite a long time ago,
Napoleon.
My dear friends...
My beloved friends.
The Major is yours.
You mean that...
you're giving him to us?
Not I, but fate.
Oh, no. None of that.
We can't have a lion in our home.
[Napoleon] Why not?
Because he's a wild animal.
Thas why not.
He doesn't look very wild to me.
Besides, you said
you were a lion trainer.
We can't have him.
He's too expensive.
We wouldn't be able to feed him.
He must eat like a...
No, no. Not Major.
He just drinks milk.
He has bad teeth.
Please!
No. We haven't got any place
to keep a lion.
Yeah, we have. We have a cage.
Cage?
Gonna take at least
to keep this boy going
forjust one day.
Don't worry, Grandpa.
I'm going to save all my pocket money.
Just to buy milk.
Hold on, now. He isn't too
well-acquainted with us yet.
in the mornings.
Oh, Grandpa.
He knows us.
He's part of our family now.
Here you are.
Look at him, Grandpa.
I am looking.
And I see a dozen quarts of milk.
What he's going to need
