Yeah, it's great. Here,

try some of those yams.

Try the grubs and the sugar ants.

Just bite the end off.

They're really sweet.

Black fellas love them.

What about you?

Aren't you having any?

Me?

Ah, Well...

You can live on it...

But it tastes like sh*t.

Mick.

When I go back, why

don't you come with me?

What for?

Well, it would make a great

wrap to the story...

You in New York City.

Oh.

For a minute there I thought

you were making a pass at me.

Well, I might have been.

Would you mind?

Bloody Wally.

He's only been here a dozen times.

He's probably lost.

Did you, uh...

You got wind or something, Wal?

I want Mick to come back

to New York with me.

Mick? In a big city?

No chance.

Paper would pay.

Well, a man should

broaden his horizons.

Everything Okay?

Oh, yeah. No worries.

Jesus Christ!

Sue!

Sue!

Sue.

G'day, mate!

You look absolutely stunning.

- Welcome home.

- Thanks.

Here, let me get this.

Oh...

Where's the man from the backwoods?

Oh, God. We got

separated in customs.

He almost started a riot

when they wanted to look

through his suitcase.

Ah, there he is.

So, that's Jungle Jim.

New York City, Mr. Dundee.

Home to seven million people.

That's incredible.

Imagine seven million people

all wanting to live together.

Yep. New York must be the

friendliest place on earth.

G'day!

Mick Dundee from

Australia. How are you?

I'm fine. How are you? I think...

Good. Just came down

for a couple of days.

Probably see you around.

Fine. We went from there...

I don't know, I think...

Thank you, Gus.

- You'll take care of the luggage?

- Yes, sir.

That's it.

Hey. Thanks for the lift, mate.

No problem.

What tribe are you, Gus?

Tribe?

Man, I ain't from no tribe.

You're a black feller, aren't you?

Last time I looked.

No one in our tribe's got

a flash car like this.

You must be doing all right, eh?

I'll get a cab back to the office.

Do you want to eat

somewhere special tonight?

Well, I thought

Tucano's would be nice.

Tucano's. 7:
30?

Mmm. Great.

- Bye.

- Okay.

Table for three.

Sir?

No worries.

Well, what do you think?

Oh, it's a bit rough,

but I'll manage.

Hey, how many of us

are staying here?

Just you.

I've got my own apartment downtown.

Oh, sorry, Mick Dundee.

I didn't catch the name.

- Angelo.

- Pleased to meet you, Angelo.

I got it. Here you go.

Got to pay for the room

in advance, have we?

You're in m town now, trust me.

Yeah. Can I get the direct

dialing code for Australia?

You should be comfortable.

Everything's here.

There's a TV if you get bored.

Ah, television.

Yeah, I saw that at Darkie

Johnson's place years ago.

Yep, that's what I saw.

Right. Okay, thanks.
