joining forces with us
and accompany our expedition?
You ask me
to join forces with you?
But you forget
I have no standing
with your scientific congress.
I believe I have even been
called unorthodox.
Oh, nonsense.
Our expedition
isn't under the auspices
of any association.
You will be
doing us an honor.
Yes, I'll go with you.
Why not?
No, Janos.
But why?
It will not be wise
for you to go.
I'm listening, Mother.
Even though you may make
a great discovery,
you'll not be happy.
You are not
used to people, Janos.
You never will be.
Your experiments
are your friends.
Leave people alone.
[Birds twittering]
Where do you suppose
that madman Rukh is, anyway?
After all,
it is his own business
if he wishes to go off on
an exploration of his own.
See, Stevens,
the little creature
is going to live.
See his flesh glow.
He moves his arm
with much more strength.
Very interesting.
This proves, I think
only part of astro-chemistry,
controlled by radial forces
from the sun.
Oh, I never doubted
your theory.
Uh, what have you
been using?
Zithilium.
One milligram,
drawn directly
from the spectrum
of the sun.
Turn it off.
[Birds cawing]
Interesting.
But I must admit
I'm quite ready
to leave Africa
the moment
that your experiments
are completed.
I admit that I'm fed up.
[Speaking native language]
[Speaking native language]
I know every wheeze
and every crack
of every record.
[Sighing]
Glad to see
signs of rhino about.
We'll go out
after them tomorrow.
Yes. You've only got
six to your credit.
Oh, well, they're such
nasty-tempered beasts,
it is a pleasure
to dispose of them.
[Birds chirping]
[Sighs]
This must be lonely
for Diana.
Of course.
It's your fault.
Why do you say that?
Oh, Ronnie, the way you two
avoid each other
is most pointed.
Why can't you be
pleasantly friendly with her
as you were at first?
Well, if you must know,
I don't dare to be.
Becoming interested?
Yes.
I thought so.
You're in love.
Well,
what could be more natural?
An African moon,
Oh, stop it.
We're not animals.
And that's just it.
And it isn't too easy,
so please don't make us
into fiction for your book.
Well, you are interested.
[Birds chirping]
Oh, so you're back, Arabella.
Yes. We got an antelope
and a fine leopard.
My ankles are worse.
I tell you, I'm getting
heartily sick of Africa.
And I don't see any use
in waiting for Rukh
any longer.
It's evident he has
elected to desert us.
Well, we can't go
and leave his wife
here alone,
even though he's forgotten
she came along.
After all,
she is Rukh's affair,
not ours.
She is my affair.
I'm fond of her.
Well, I'm not fond enough
of anyone
to make this
my permanent abode.
Temba, more water, please.
[Exclaims]
[Electronic signal buzzing]
[Screaming]
[Man shouting]
[Buzzing]
[Electric signal
beeping rapidly]
[Volcano rumbling]
[Men chattering
in native language]
Choco. The small package.
[Speaking native language]
Boss, put on hat.
Very hot here.
many days now, maybe?
There's no doubt of it.
No doubt of it.
Safari boys
no like this place, boss.
Why not?
Look in pit,
fall in, many devil.
Pick me out a runner.
I want to send a letter
to the main camp immediately.
Me do.
[Speaking native language]
This boy go.
He very fast.
Hold box.
How long will he take
to reach the main camp?
This time tomorrow night,
he get there.
All downhill.
Good.
Boss, wants him to wait,
bring back answer paper?
Yes.
Now, give this
to the young mistress.
Don't say a word
about where we are.
And make sure
he understands.
[Speaking native language]
[Speaking native language]
[Drums beating]
(Arabella)
Francis, are you asleep?
No, my dear,
I was merely trying
I'd give 10 for...
[sniffs]
Antelope stew again.
Take it away.
I'm not up to coping with it.
(Arabella)
Oh, stop feeling so sorry
for yourself.
[Tribals chanting]
What new secrets did you draw
from the sun today,
Dr. Benet?
Proof that the sun
is the mother of us all.
Is she? I wonder
What are we
all about anyway?
Astro-chemistry,
my friend.
Astro-chemistry.
[Speaking native language]
[Speaking native language]
[Panting]
It's from Janos.
Excuse me.
[Chanting continues]
He says very little.
We're not to expect him back
for some time.
Where is he?
He doesn't say.
He hopes
he is on the trail
of an interesting
new discovery.
Runner boy
want take paper back.
Yes, tell him to wait.
Will you all
excuse me, please?
But your dinner, dear?
I'm not really hungry.
I want to see
the runner boy in my tent.
You come, too,
and talk for me.
I'll be ready in an hour.
I want three boys
for safari.
[Speaking native language]
(Ronald)
Diana?
What are you going to do?
There's only one thing to do.
I'm going to him tonight.
Tonight?
[Insects chirping]
It's cooler.
Besides, there's a moon.
You're going alone?
I can't stay here now.
Why?
He's a great man, Ronald.
I'm his wife.
He needs me.
And I can't let him down.
No.
You wouldn't.
You're not the sort
to let any man down.
Ever.
Goodbye.
Goodbye, Diana.
[Volcano rumbling]
[Speaking native language]
[Grunting in native language]
[Whizzing]
[Men chattering
in native language]
Power.
More power
than man has ever known.
Well, what do you want?
Safari boys want go away
this place.
No like him.
So, they want to leave me,
do they?
Me wanna go, too.
Indeed.
Do you see that rock?
Yes, boss.
I want you to keep
your eyes on that rock.
Tell the boys to do so, too.
[Speaking native language]
Watch.
[All exclaiming]
[Men chattering]
[Speaking native language]
You can all go
if you want to,
but you won't go far.
All that will be left of you
will be like that.
Me stay, boss.
[All pleading]
We'll all stay.
All right.
Then get back to work.
[Speaking native language]
Take the lamp inside.
Draws the pests.
[Screaming]
It's poisoned me.
Dead.
[Tribals murmuring]
Boss house there.
Me take you.
No, I'll go alone.
Janos?
What are you doing here?
You must go away at once.
At once. Do you hear?
But it's Diana.
You shouldn't have come.
I wrote you
I had important work to do.
I don't want to be bothered
with anyone.
Oh, you must be ill.
What's happened to you?
Nothing has happened to me.
What makes you think
anything has happened to me?
It's been weeks
since you left.
Don't you want to see me?
I don't want to
see you here.
This is no place for you.
You must leave here
at once.
I won't be a bother.
I suppose
you'll have to stay the night.
My headman
will find shelter for you.
But I want you out of here
the very first thing
in the morning.
Do you understand?
Yes.
I understand.
I'm leaving
as soon as it's daybreak.
