Tarzan and His Mate Page #5

Synopsis: In the first sequel to Tarzan, the Ape Man, Harry Holt returns to Africa to head up a large ivory expedition. This time he brings his womanizing friend Marlin Arlington. Holt also harbors ideas about convincing Jane to return to London. When Holt and Arlington show Jane some of the modern clothes and perfumes they brought from civilization, she is impressed but not enough to return. Tarzan wrestles every wild animal imaginable to protect Jane but when he disallows the expedition from plundering ivory from the elephant burial grounds, it is he who takes a bullet from Arlington's gun. Jane eventually believes that Tarzan is dead but he is nursed back to health by the apes. As Jane and the returning expedition are attacked by violent natives, we wonder if Tarzan can rescue them yet again.

- Sorry.

But there must be some traces.

Even if he were...

He said, "Always. "

Wait.

Take me away.

- You're dead-tired, aren't you, Jane?

- I'm all right.

We could make a litter

and have some of the boys carry you.

The walking helps.

You're very brave.

No. If I were, I should be back there.

With Tarzan's memory.

Answer me honestly, Jane.

Would you feel better

if we didn't take the ivory?

If we carried it back?

Martin, that's sweet of you...

but nothing matters anymore.

Supposing she had said, "Take it back. "

Strange about that croc.

I never would have believed that Tarzan

could have been caught off guard...

if you hadn't told me.

I thought you'd gone.

Well, she didn't desert you after all.

- In the jungle, fidelity goes to the living.

- Everywhere.

There, there, Cheetah. That's all right.

You can go with me.

What is it?

Better tie a rope on her

so she won't run off again.

What is it, Cheetah?

She's trying to tell me something.

Perhaps you should leave her here

in freedom.

They die in captivity.

Tarzan's alive.

What?

He's alive.

Tarzan's alive.

- I wish he were, but...

- But he is.

- She wants to take me to him.

- It's impossible.

- Do you believe this, Jane?

- I know it.

- Harry, I've got to go to him.

- Then we'll go with you.

Saidi, halt them.

Jane, you're chasing a shadow.

- He's alive, somewhere.

- We'll follow Cheetah.

Juju drums.

Where?

Behind and over there.

- Juju, bwana.

- What tribe?

New country, bwana. No tell.

All right. Get them started.

Straight ahead.

But Harry, we've got to

get through to Tarzan. That way.

It's blocked. We'll save ourselves first.

Cheetah can show us the way after.

Come back here, you!

Pick up that ivory. Pick it up.

- Ivory doesn't count now.

- I'm holding on.

If we could get to those rocks,

we could hold them off.

We might rush them.

The moment we raise a gun,

they'll be on us.

They've never seen a gun.

We can get past.

All right, we'll try it.

Saidi, tell the boys

to bring the ammunition boxes up.

Saidi, pass the word that when we fire,

everyone runs for the rocks.

Ready, Martin?

Now!

Get the ammunition box.

I wish we had that box of ammunition.

- Cover me.

- Wait a minute.

- You're a better shot than I am.

- Yes, I know.

I'm a faster runner, too.

Don't waste your ammunition.

We can't kill them all.

Cheetah, come back!

Deserting us?

No, she isn't. She's going to get Tarzan.

Go on, Cheetah!

She'll make it.

Cheetah, go on!

I know who they are.

Tarzan calls them

"the men that eat lions. "

Eat lions?

They roar to call the lions,

then they spear them.

This time they're going to let

the lions do the hunting.

They're staking Saidi out.

- Come back, you can't save him.

- Harry, come back!

Stand guard on the ledge.

I've always thought when you were

faced with death, nothing would matter.

What does?

You.

Always gone.

No, dear. Always is just beginning

for you and me.
