Tarzan Page #4

Where, Jane, where ?

He left with them.

Who, dear, who ?

Tarzan.

- Tarzan ?

- The ape man.

Hmm.

Everyone, we will avoid

the strangers.

- Do not let them see you,

and do not seek them out.

- They mean us no harm, Kerchak.

- Tarzan, I don't know that.

- But I do. I've spent time with them.

You may be willing to risk

our safety, but I'm not.

Why are you threatened

by anyone different from you ?

[ Snarls ]

Protect this family,

and stay away from them.

[ Grunts ]

Tarzan, for once

listen to Kerchak.

Why didn't you tell me there were

creatures that looked like me ?

[Jane ] Well, he didn't stand upright,

he sort of crouched, like that.

- Really ?

- Supported his weight on his knuckles.

- On the knuckles !

- See ?

- Exactly like a gorilla !

- Extraordinary !

Ah, it was amazing !

And he bends his elbows out like this,

and then he walks like this.

Oh, I see !

Like Aunt Isabel !

- [ Porter ] Bup-bup-bup, oh-oh

This is capital !

- Mmm.

Oh, Janey, Jane !

What a discovery !

A man with no language,

no human behaviour.

And no respect

for personal boundaries.

- How do you mean ?

- He was this close, Daddy !

Staring at me.

He seemed confused

at first,

as if he's never seen

another human before.

His eyes were intense,

and focused and--

I've never seen such eyes.

Oh, shall I,

ahem,

Leave you and the blackboard

alone for a moment ?

Daddy, stop it. The point is,

think of what we could learn from him.

- We must find him.

- Ooh !

Professor, you are here

to find gorillas,

not indulge

some girlish fantasy.

Fantasy ? I didn't imagine him !

Tarzan is...

- [ Gasps ]

- real.

Ah ! It's him !

It's, it's, it's him. Tarzan !

- Professor ! Jane ! Stand back !

- Wait !

- No !

- [ Rifle Shot ]

[Tarzan]

Clayton.

Huh ?

- Clayton.

- Ahh ! [ Chuckles ]

Have we... met ?

How does he

know my name ?

He thinks it means

the sound of a gunshot.

-Jane.

- Yes, hello, mmm, Tarzan.

I see what you mean

about those personal boundaries.

- What's he doing ?

- [ Grunting ]

- [Porter]Look at him, Jane.

- [ Laughing ]

Moves like an ape

but looks like a man.

He could be

the missing link !

Or our link

to the gorillas.

Ahh, yes, yes.

[ Clears Throat ]

Where are the gorillas ?

Go-ril-las !

Go-ril-las !

Shouting won't help, Mr Clayton.

He doesn't understand English.

Then I'll make him

understand.

If I can teach a parrot

to sing "God Save the Queen,"

I can certainly teach this savage

a thing or two.

Go-rilla.

- Go-rilla.

- Oh-ho ! He's got it !

Gorilla.

Gorilla !

- Perhaps not.

- No, no, no, no !

- No, no, no, no, no !

- No, no, no. Gimme that.

No, no.

Leave that. No.

Mr Clayton,

I think I'll take it from here.

What ever you do

I'll do it too

Show me everything

Tell me how

It all means something

And yet nothing to me

I can see

there's so much to learn

It's all so close

and yet so far

I see my self

as people see me

Oh, I just know there's

something bigger out there

I wanna know

Can you show me

I wanna know about

these strangers like me

Tell me more

Please show me

Something's familiar about

these strangers like me

Every gesture

Every move that she makes

makes me feel like never before

Why do I have

This growing need

to be beside her

Ooo, these emotions

I never knew

Of some other world

far beyond this place

Beyond the trees

above the clouds

I see before me

a new horizon

I wanna know

Can you show me

I wanna know about

these strangers like me

Tell me more

Please show me

Something's familiar about

these strangers like me

Come with me now

to see my world

Where there's beauty

beyond your dreams

Can you feel the things

I feel

Right now with you

Take my hand

There's a world

I need to know

[Clayton] We've wasted

all this time on what he wants.

The boat could arrive any day.

Now ask him straight out.

Tarzan ?

Will you take us

to the gorillas ?

Do you understand?

I understand.

- Ooh ! Good work, Jane.

- Well ?

I can't.

- What ?

- What ?

- Why not, Tarzan ?

Kerchak.

Wh-wh--

[ Sighs ]

I wanna know

Can you show me

I wanna know about

these strangers like me

Tell me more

Please show me

Something's familiar about

these strangers like me

I wanna know

Oh, Terk, I've never

seen him so happy.

Eh, I give it a week.

[Thug#1]

Aye, cut her loose!

- [Thug #2] Arg, c'mon.

- All right, move it, you field rats.

[ Horn Blows ]

Put your back into it.

Wait, please. Don't--

I've waited 30 years for this,

and I won't leave

until I see a gorilla.

Oh, isn't this dreadful,

Tarzan ?

Whoa !

No, no. Wait.

[Clayton]

You're the captain.

Just tell them you've had engine

trouble, and give us two more days.

And be late at every port

from here to London ?

We'll have come all this way

for nothing.

I'm sorry, Miss Porter,

but I simply can't do it.

Agh !

This is your fault.

I should've followed my instincts,

and set traps for the beasts.

Don't you think I'm disappointed

about the gorillas ?

- You are absolutely impos-- [ Gasps ]

- Oh !

Tarzan ! I was so afraid

you wouldn't come in time.

The boat's arrived.

The boat that's come...

to take us home

to England.

And Daddy and I were wond--

Well, I was wondering--

Well, we really hope that you'll

come with us. Won't you ?

Go see England today,

come home tomorrow.

Oh, no.

Well, you see, it would be

very difficult to come back... ever.

Not come back ?

Oh, no, no. I know it sounds awful,

but you belong with us.

- With people.

-Jane must stay with Tarzan.

Wh-- Stay here ?

Oh, no, no. My laundry.

No, I can't stay.

Look, I've got--

I've got my father

and--

Jane, stay.

- But--

- Please.

[ Sighs ]

But... I can't.

[ Crying ]

[Clayton Chuckles]

Women !

How typical !

Thank you, Jones.

Even if you hadn't grown up a savage,

you'd be lost.

There are no trails

through a woman's heart.

Jane is going.

Yes. If only she could've spent

more time with the gorillas.

She's so disappointed.

Crushed, really.

Sorry, old boy.

Oh, well. I'd best

get Jane's things to the ship.

Clayton !

If Jane sees gorillas,

she stays ?

Say, that's why she came,

isn't it ?

I'll do it.

- Good man ! Snipes ?

- Sir ?

Get the boys together.

There's gonna be a change in plans.

Terk, all you have to do

is get Kerchak out of the way.

- What ?

- I'd be happy to get Kerchak--

Shut your trunk

and get me outta here.

Can you believe that guy ?

Drops us like a newborn giraffe--

kerplop !

Now waltzes in here

and expects us to just--

Terk, I'm asking you

as a friend.

Aah ! Aah !

With the face

and the eyes, and the--

Aah ! All right !

But don't make me do

anything embarrassing.

I'm gonna kill him !

A-Actually, I thought that dress

was rather slimming on you.

Oh, really ? I thought it was

a little revealing and kind of--

- [ Roaring ]

- Aah !

- How does she move in this thing ?

- [ Yells ]

[Kerchak Roaring]

[ Terk ]

Look out !

- Oh, look, Daddy.

- Where ? Wh-- Wh--
