You should stay that way

as long as you can.

Is it good?

I have a gift.

I've never been on a plane.

Most people haven't.

What's your job like?

I make sure everyone has

their seatbelts on.

I serve them drinks...

I try not to spill their drinks

on them.

Do you make a lot of money?

You ask a lot of questions.

That's what Mr. Hai says.

Who's Mr. Hai?

He works at the zoo.

Do you like animals?

Of course.

What's your favorite?

I like...giraffes.

No, wait. Sparrows...

Mr. Hai is like an owl.

He's very wise.

How do you know he's wise?

He can talk to the animals.

An owl and a sparrow.

Good afternoon.

Can I help you?

Please...

My niece is lost in the city somewhere.

I thought she might end up here.

Here she is.

No. Not this girl.

Are you sure?

Can you take a good look?

I'm sure.

But you must know...

...there are five other

orphanages in the city.

If she shows up here...

Please call this number.

Bamboo blinds?

That's right. The finest quality.

Thank you, ma'am.

I was wondering if I'd see

you around.

I've beem worling.

I've been working.

How's the flower business.

Better tham postcards.

He'd have more space

to play in the jungle.

I've raised this elephant

since he has a baby.

I know everything he does.

This is his home.

But now the city wants to

sell him to a zoo in ndia.

They can do that to.

They can do that to him?

They can do whatever they want.

The city owns the zoo.

They could sell all the

animals here.

They could build a golf course.

We're just little people,

you and me.

What if you paid them?

Could you keep the elephant.

Do you know how much

an elephant costs?

You have a Iot of spirit.

Do you like tigers?

Sure, I like tigers.

See? Tigers are my friends.

But what I really want

is a girlfriend.

I'm so lonely inside.

Wait! You're moving too fast

You dom't have to be

afraid of mme.

- What are you doing in there?

- Nothing.

I have to buy food

for the elephants.

I could use your help.

I can pay you a Little.

Hop on.

Put this on.

Air pollution kills more

than 20,000 people a year.

- Here we are.

- Hello there.

Only little bananas for the elephants.

Do they have to be ripe?

Not too ripe, so they

don't go bad.

Why are we stopping here?

I'm sure she has a new boyfriend.

I can feel it.

Who are you talking about?

Hold on a second.

Let me buy your roses.

I need you to give her

these roses for me.

No! I won't do it!

Help me out here.

I can't do that.

Why won't help me?

She's no good.

She broke your heart once.

She'll do it again.

I know how women are.

Just help me this once.

- Find out if she has a new boyfriend.

- How do I do that?

See how she looks when
