Crocodile Dundee In Los Angeles Page #5

Synopsis: From the opening shot of a Jurassic Park-esque reptilian eye, you know you are in for a wild ride. As Mick "Crocodile" Dundee sits in a canoe sharpening his famous knife, a monstrous croc hides somewhere in the deep. The croc suddenly attacks, tearing Mick's boat to pieces and leaving him and mate Jacko up a tree. Life for Mick can only get easier, right? When Mick arrives at home, he discovers longtime companion Sue's newspaper-mogul father has called, and needs her help on an article at the paper's Los Angeles branch. Mick, who recognizes his importance in the modernizing bush is now no more than as a tourist attraction, agrees to join her, and together Mick, Sue and son Mikey head for Los Angeles. Here the adventure truly begins, as Mick and Jacko brave a cowboy bar where the horsemen are of a different color, and a Hollywood film party where everyone seems interested in Mick's mate Malcolm "Mal" Gibson's colorful exploits. Sue's article soon leads to a sleazy film producer, so Mick

Take off!

We have a very tricky situation|for the police here.

The suspect appears to be|holding a young boy hostage.

Stay where you are!

Put the bomb down!

What?

That's not a bomb.|That's a cat.

Ah, see, just like at home.|The policeman is your friend.

They're here to help us.

That's not a cat.|That's a skunk.

- You can take it from here, guys.|- Uh-uh.

Uh, Mike, I wouldn't|mention this to your mum.

She probably wouldn't understand.|It's man stuff.

Of course, at that stage,|early this afternoon,

we had no idea that the bomb|was, in fact, a skunk.

Officers reluctantly placed|the skunk in a squad car...

to await the arrival|of animal control.

In the meantime, it backed up|traffic on the 101...

[ Volume Increases ] from Calabasas|to Pasadena, the worst traffic jam--

- What are you doing, Mikey?|- Uh, it's okay, love, it's me.

Oh. Mick, are you sure|you want to come tonight?

I mean, it's a social thing,|but it'll be work for me.

I'm lookin' forward to it.

You know, to see if the local people|are as friendly as New Yorkers.

I hope your son feels the same way.|He starts school on Wednesday.

Oh, no worries.|He's, uh, he's just like me, really.

From what I hear, he has enough charm|to stop a skunk from spraying him.

Yeah, well, you know, we were|roarin' down the freeway--

It's okay.

- You looked really cute on TV.|- Bloody television.

## [Rap ]

Not this time, pal.

- [ Gasps ] Mick!|- Call the cops!

Let him go. He's the valet.|He's supposed to park the car.

Yeah, yeah,|take it easy, dude.

- Tip him.|- Sorry.

- Honest mistake.|- Sorry.

Valet?

## [Rap Continues]

- Picture, please.|- Sure.

Mind if we get a shot?

Don't worry. I'll just get|a drink, blend right in.

Okay. I'll come and get you|after I've done the formalities.

[Man ]|Big smile for the camera, please.

All right, that's your Evian,|and this here's...

your sparkling mineral water|with a twist.

Oh, and a straight club soda.

So, you havin' a drink|or doin' your laundry?

G'day. Mick Dundee.|And you're--

Tony. What can I get|for you, Mr. Dundee?

Just a cold beer'll do, mate.|Thanks.

That's typical of L. A. today.|Health nuts.

Worried about what they drink,|worried about what they eat.

I used to be like that|till I found the answer.

Oh? And, um,|what's the answer?

Coffee. Eat and drink whatever you|please, then flush it out with coffee.

So you just drink|lots of coffee.

No. You don't drink it.|I'm talking colonics.

A good coffee enema|leaves you clean as a whistle.

[ Chuckles ]|Bottoms up.

Hey, Tony.|An enema--

Isn't that where they shove|a hose up the old--

- Yep. Lots of people swear by 'em.|- With coffee?

- Cream and sugar?|- It's L. A.
