Mitsubishi!

Mimi Siku.

Hi, uh, Mimi Siku.

I'm Michael Cromwell.

Patricia- Paliku

tells me that, um,

that I'm your father.

That's a nice pot you have.

Do you understand

any English?

Well, Patricia- or Paliku- wanted me

to say something paternal to you.

I gotta admit, this isn't easy for me.

I don't have any regrets.

Well, I have regrets.

But then again-

# Too few to mention ## Ha!

Michael.

- You all right?

- Yes. Put air bags in these things.

What do you call this place again?

The Surface of the Sun?

Mimi said that you talked

to him last night.

I told him that I was his father,

and he said something in Indian,

and then he gave

a girl a pot.

Giving a pot here is like

giving flowers. It's a love gift.

He's very popular

with the girls.

- Maybe he is mine after all.

- He is yours.

Why don't you try again? He's going

out on the river. Go with him.

Maybe I can teach him

about commodities.

Based on what I learned

in the bachelor hut last night,

he could make a killing

in gas futures.

- Go.

- Is it the local fruit?

- Baboon! Baboon!

- Huh?

No, no, no, no.

Monkey.

Monkey.

Toona. Toona.

Oh.

Parasite.

No, uh, Mimi, um-

Water? Wa-

Piranha.

Cut, infection, death!

Oh.

Hoko. Hoko.

Hoko- bird.

Bird who can't sing:

Hoko Ono.

No, no, no.

Hoko is toucan.

Bird is pomoko.

- You speak English?

- Paliku taught me.

So, you understood

everything I said last night.

Is it much further?

These shoes

cost me $500. Whoa!

Hey, hey, hey!

Good shot!

Buradu.

Okay.

- Scared of snake?

- No, scared of snake bite.

Ugh.

Eww.

- This buradu is dead, right?

- Sleeping. We kill it before we eat it.

No, no, no, no.

I do not eat snake.

- Lizard guts.

- Actually, the snake filled me right up.

- No. I make it for you. Tastes good.

- Oh.

Now you here, you stay

with me all the time?

I'd like to, Mimi Siku,

but I can't.

Why?

I have a whole

'nother life where I live.

Another son?

No. You're

the only son I have.

- I'll teach you to hunt.

- Tomorrow I've got to go to my village.

I'm a trader.

That's what I do, okay?

This in your village,

yes?

Woman who hold fire

up sky's butt?

I've never had her described

quite like that.

Yes, she's

in my village.

We call her

the Statue of Liberty.

When I'm a man, will you take me

to Statue of Liberty?

Sure.

Why not? Yeah.

When you're a man, I'll take you

to the Statue of Liberty.

- Wakatepe?

- Wakatepe.

Sleep time.

Ugh.

Mimi, don't move!

Don't move! There's

a giant spider on you!

Don't move!

What's it doing?

Oh, great!

It's now comin' after me!

Damn, it's chasin' me.

Stop, stop, stop!

I don't want

to hurt you, but I will.

I will crush you
