The Gods Must Be Crazy II Page #3

Right now, pull back.

- You said pull back.

- Not way back.

- Pull it, pull it, pull it.

- Will you make up your mind?

- Bring her down, bring her down.

- What?

- We go that way.

- You said you were gonna take over.

- You should have gone that way. Sh*t.

- Sh*t.

Trust a woman to do anything,

and she buggers it up.

So she buggered it up.

Look down and read. It says, ''on|off.''

Switch it off, then glide.

I told you I can't fly.

It says, '' Ballistic parachute.'' Clearly.

Read it. Press the button.

You'll be okay.

I told you I can't even drive a manual.

It's easy. Bring it over, centre it up,

pull back. Get it right!

I showed you so nicely. I said,

'' Bring it over.'' Not, '' Bring it over!''

You'll break your neck.

You don't explain properly.

I could have broken my neck.

How am I going to find you

with only one boot?

Better find my boot.

Shoo. Go away.

Sh*t.

Wait!

Hi. Do you want to sell me your bike?

Look. I'll give you money.

I give you money,

you give me the bike.

I have to go that way. There's a man.

I'll pay you, you take me that way.

Here.

Please, I insist. Okay.

Pay you when we get there. There?

Well, why don't we try

something else?

Yeah, sure.

All right.

Good thinking.

Are you gonna hang in there forever?

There. Lunch. Go on, try it.

Okay, try that.

Look, I'm really sorry.

Please, take this.

No, come on.

Bye.

Well, thanks. Bye.

Gotta find somebody.

You said you were tired.

Hey, go home.

Go back to your family.

Go on, get.

Get. Shoo. Go.

English?

Okay.

Get up.

- Move.

- Which way?

To my jeep.

Stop. Where are you going?

Where is your jeep?

We go to your jeep.

Stop.

- March.

- Which way?

Know why a compass

is a mirror on back?

- Why?

- So you can see who's lost.

Okay. We go northwest.

That way. March.

How far did you fly, for Pete's sake?

How am I going to find you?

Damn.

Hey.

Hey, you, get away. Leave it alone.

Get out of here.

Give me back my can. Scumbag.

You mugger.

Thank you.

You keep away.

Stay there.

See these? You dare...

Don't even think about it.

You'll be sorry.

Go away.

Okay. You can have this one

and no more.

Leave the can. Do you hear me?

Leave my can alone and go away.

No, don't bring a friend.

I'm not gonna water you, your friends

and your relatives, and I'm not--

- Excerpts from the Geneva Convention.

- Forget it.

How a prisoner of war

ought to be treated.

'' No prisoner shall be subjected

to inhumane treatment.

- No outrage shall be committed.''

- Stop.

- You can rest for three minutes.

- What's your hurry?

None of your business.

Three minutes.

I'm pooped, man.

Don't do that. Come back. I'm going to

report you to the Geneva Convention!

Come back. You're my prisoner.

Come back!

Come out of there

and be my prisoner!

- You mustn't do that!

- March.

If you're so smart, how come you

don't even know what country you're in?

So which way did they go?

I'll just have to wait till

they come back.

Xixo saw a heavy person

dressed in funny clothes...

... talking to herself. She looked

like a woman, but had a man's voice.

Hey.

It's your way of greeting.

We do it this way.

Sorry.

Okay. I'll do it your way.

Hello. I'm very glad to meet you.

He said, ''Where is your family?''

He looked at her tracks and said,

''How did you get here?

I have to find my children, but

two people are playing some game.

They went that way. I hear them.

- Perhaps they'll let you play. ''

- You want me to go?

He showed her the tracks where he met

the two heavy men.

He said,

''This is where they turned back.

This one was angry because

the tired one grabbed the stick.

And then he had to run.

It was very funny. ''

She couldn't understand.

She was also quite illiterate.

She couldn't read the signs

and tracks at all.

We're waiting for a bus?

Well, what do you know.

Go away. Bugger off.

I don't want to see you. Stop!

Who are you?

Xixo couldn't understand what

they were playing.

This thing penetrates.

You wouldn't shoot a lady.

He said, ''I have to find my children. ''

The men had bad manners,

so he didn't say goodbye.

I don't want to be involved.

I'm American.

Okay.

Hey, you can't leave me here.

You want me to die?

Get away from me.

Get away.

Try again, huh?

It's not fair. You can't both use me.

Let me go! Let me go. Let me go!

Okay, drop it.

- Drop it.

- Yes, drop it.

- Now, drop it.

- Yes, drop it, drop it, drop it!

Can't we negotiate?

I wanna go home. If I don't get back

to Biera, I'll miss my plane to Cuba.

- I'll spend another six months here.

- I've got to take you to my base!

- I have to be in New York on Wednesday.

- Sit down. And stay clear of the Cuban.

I'll stay clear of goddamn both of you.

I resent being used as a hostage object.

Gotta be in New York on Wednesday.

You should have stayed there.

I didn't ask you to come out here.

I have to walk my arse off to find you.

Well, good.

What's so funny?

Switch it on.

Big Ben calling Ramjee.

Big Ben calling Ramjee.

- What are you doing?

- What am I doing?

Look at the sun.

You're going the wrong way.

Boss, I'm driving on the compass.

This thing is made of steel.

You left it there.

Look at the needle.

You buggered the compass,

you stupid bastard.

- Jeez, boss, I wasn't thinking. I'm real--

- Stop the bloody truck.

So when did you put it there?

Well, I drank some coffee

just at sunrise, boss.

Five hours. Forty degrees off.

Stupid bastard.

Big Ben calling Ramjee.

Do you read me, for chrissakes?

- Ramjee, come in.

- Big Ben, where the hell are you?

Look, I'm sorry.

This idiot bugged the compass.

I've been waiting three bloody days!

Where the bloody hell are you?

We could have been there,

but we're way off course.

Now we have to backtrack for

at least five hours to find our bearings.

We're going back in our tracks,

so we'll be out of range again.

I'll contact you

when we come back into range.

Little Xiri saw hyena tracks.

The spoor was very fresh

so he knew the hyena must be close.

And it was downwind,

so it was sure to smell him.

He remembered

his father had said:

''If you're taller than the hyena,

it will keep its distance. ''

It couldn't understand how this small

creature had grown tall so suddenly.

Perhaps the hyena hoped that Xiri

would get small again, so it followed...

...at a respectful distance.

Well, we got flown here

in a kind of a plane...

...and then I kind of lost Dr. Marshall.

Get in the jeep. Move.

Wait there.

- Okay, but leave your bag.

- Why?

- You swat people.

- No, I won't. I promise.

- Look, I'll take out the rocks.

- You got rocks in there?

You drive.

In there.

Start her up.

That way.

Xixo saw another track made

by a heavy person...

...and the footprints told of a man

who was in a bad way.

He spoke to the track:

''I can see you need help

but I must find my children. ''

Turn right.

Stop.

Hey, that's my jeep.

I know, I knew it.

- Go siphon.

- Gas?
