Rogue

Hot as hell out there, huh?

Well, well, well, well.

How are we today, young man?

What can I do you for?

Jeez, it must be cosy in that suit. Hey?

Oh. Yeah.

No, the airport lost all my bags.

Well, it's gonna be

a real scorcher today.

Yeah. No kidding.

I'm supposed to catch

a boat cruise from here...?

A few years back you'd be lucky

to see any tourists up here at all.

- Yeah.

- Too remote for most people.

It's changing pretty quickly,

I can tell you.

Right. Uh, can I get a coffee, please?

Real strong.

- Two sugars.

- How about a 'cup-a-cino'?

Give the new machine a work-out.

Phil. Hey.

What's going on, man?

How's Chicago?

Everything's fine,

except for the fact that

they lost my bags at the airport

and my computer was in my bag

and I need it to finish the article,

so could you call Greg at the office

and tell him what happened

'cause I really need someone

to track down those bags for me.

Hello? Hello?

Hello? Can you hear me?

Can you hear me now? Phil?

- Get outta there.

- Can you hear me now?

Hey, can you hear me?

Hey. There you are.

No, no, the service here sucks.

Oh, no. Oh, no, it's over.

Yeah, she went back last week.

Whatever.

Why do you think I took this shitty job?

Hello?

Sh*t.

Jesus Christ.

There you go. Real strong.

It's on the house.

Oh, thanks. Thanks a lot.

Hey, nice picture.

That silly bugger will think twice

about going swimming at night, hey?

- Tickets.

- Dad, have you got the tickets?

Tickets.

That's two. Two adults, one child.

Cheers. Just in the middle there.

Wow. It's so low.

Yeah. Big one looks safer.

- Better you than me.

- OK.

So one of the rules of my tour

is that you only have one chance

to complain about the heat and the flies.

Nice to meet ya.

They're a fact of life up here

and whingeing about 'em all day

isn't gonna make 'em disappear.

Simon. Get a hold of those flies.

Might have to kick you off the boat, mate.

Ticket?

Oh, I got one. Trust me.

Come on, mate.

You got two tickets there, sir.

- Oh, no, no, no. Just me.

- No worries.

Sit anywhere you like.

Jesus!

We're on bush time now, so should

have youse back around 5:00. Or 6:00.

She's your kid,

and you kind of promised her crocodiles.

Honey, it's a two-hour tape.

I'll get footage, OK?

Oh! Here we go.

Maybe we'll see those crocodiles.

Welcome to Ryan's Wildlife Cruises.

My name's Kate Ryan

and I'm gonna be your tour guide today,

in case you hadn't figured that out.

This is my business partner, Kevin.

Say g'day, Kev.

Yes, you are.

Oh, my God, you're so cute.

Honey, we should get a dog.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

Thought you were a cat person.

Anyone have any questions?

Alright, let's go check out some crocs.

The Northern Territory

is home to the biggest population

of saltwater crocodiles in the world,

spread throughout

several large tidal river systems.

The State covers a landmass

double the size of Texas

but we have a population

of only 200,000 people.

As you can imagine,

we all have pretty big backyards.

Excuse me. Excuse me?

- Hi there.

- Hi. I'm Gwen.

Hi. Hi, Gwen. Would you mind...?

- Oh, no. Sure, help yourself.

- No, no.

Sorry, it's, um...

It's the smoke. It's... it's kind of wafting.

Right. Shite. OK. Story of my life!

I'll, um, go down the back.

- Oh, thank you so much. Thank you.

- That's OK.

- Really appreciate that.

- Thanks a lot.

Right.

- Come here.

- Where's the zoom on this?

- You don't need the zoom.

- There it is, there.

Come on, darling.

OK. Smile.

- Hmm.

- Oh, Sher.

- What are you doing? Look at that.

- Oh, darling. Don't pull a face.

- Why do you always pull a face?

- Excuse me?

Do you want me to take

a photo of the family?

- Yeah, that...that'd be super.

- Yeah?

- That would be good. Thank you.

- Thanks very much.

- The big button?

- Yeah, just that one there.

OK. Here we go.

Oh, that's beaut.

- That is a beautiful camera.

- Thank you.

- Yeah, is that new?

- Oh, yes.

- I got it for Christmas.

- Yeah, nice. Cute little snapper.

I mean, she's no, um...digital SLR,

which is single lens reflex.

I got a 25mm lens. I got a 35mm,

right through to a 1 55mm.

Doubler pushes it out to 300mm,

but who's counting?

- I know I'm not.

- Well, that's very impressive.

It is indeed. Guess how much.

Man, it's like,

you know, the 'African Queen'.

It's hot and horny

and I just wanna get naked.

I could come into the room.

- You know, we could do that.

- Do you want to sit somewhere else?

- I like sitting next to you.

- No. Do you want to sit there?

- No.

- There's a spare seat. Sit there.

- I paid for this seat.

- You're bugging me. Sit there.

- What, with the lrish girl?

- Really, no, it's sexual harassment.

- With the lrish girl?

- No, just sit here.

You can't make everybody

move to the back of the boat.

- No.

- Enough already with the sex talk.

- OK? OK? OK?

- It's not your boat.

Shite! It's hot, isn't it?

Hey, what are they waiting for?

Keep watching.

- Oh, my God.

- Oh, my gosh!

- What was that?

- You right there, love?

Look at the size of the bastard.

Don't you worry.

He's already got his lunch.

God, that's amazing.

- Are you right?

- How often does it do that?

Every day at 2:
00.

- Wow. Every day at 2:00?

- Yep.

And how high do they jump?

Oh, they can jump right out.

They use their tails to propel 'em.

I mean, sometimes

they come right up to you.
