and still you avoid me.

You seem to take a sadistic pleasure

out of making me miserable.

Don't leave me

like a wounded animal to suffer.

You're gonna tell me

why you've been acting like this.

Look, I didn't ask to come along here

with you. This was your idea.

Now, you tell me

why you're torturing me.

I wasn't aware that I was

torturing you. I'm sorry.

Sorry's not enough.

I'm leaving tomorrow with the carriers,

Paul. I mean it.

June, June.

You can't do that.

You don't know how important

you are to me.

Why, you... Your leaving

would spoil everything.

Why can't you always

be like this?

I love you so much, Paul.

There's nothing in the worid

I wouldn't do for you.

Paul, I'd even die for you.

What good would that do?

I want you to live for me.

We'll work together

and when we discover the Nandos' secret

of rejuvenation,

I'll make you young again.

You'll be

beautiful.

Just as beautiful as you were

when we first met.

How stupid I've been.

Of course

I'm important to you.

And you really do

need me, don't you?

Where else would you get

a guinea pig who can talk?

Who can tell you

how she feels?

How desperate I must have been

to listen to your lies.

And believe them!

June, June...

You keep your hands

off of me!

I'll see you dead

before I let you touch me again.

Ladu. Where'd she go?

Go get her.

Bring her back.

What's the matter?

It's June. She's run off.

Now, now, now, now, it's all right.

Now, try and get hold of yourself.

Look, the leopard's killed

and you are safe.

Come. Come.

There's only one trouble

with running away.

You always meet yourself

when you get there.

Now, come on.

Let's get back to camp. Come.

I think we'd better take a look.

Get your gun.

Ladu.

Hey, what's that?

It's Malla's.

She had this cane in my office.

Ladu.

Nandos.

Looks as though your friend Malla

met a welcoming committee.

Yes, but her body isn't here.

What worries me is why

these bodies are still here.

There are plenty of hyenas

and vultures around.

What do you mean?

Something's been frightening

the scavengers away.

Ladu?

Ladu.

Ladu.

Ladu.

Ladu!

I think we'd better

get back to camp.

Ladu.

Ladu.

What do we do now?

I don't think we're

going to have much choice.

That man isn't alone.

We'd be dead already if he wanted to kill us.

Give me your gun.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm all right.

They're working themselves up

for something.

Maybe we're the "something."

You don't know

how right you are.

I think we're about

to have company.

It's Malla.

She'll help us. You'll see.

I hope you're right.

We'll need it.

Dr. Talbot, we meet again.

I've been expecting you.

Then tell your people
