Ndiyo, bwana.
He's a nice fellow...
Wilson.
Yes, he is.
I wonder
what he said to kongoni.
It must have been
something like "shut up."
Everything's quite now.
Kongoni said,
"ndiyo, bwana."
That means "yes, sir."
You speak Swahili
very well.
Ndiyo, memsahib.
You see, there's a lot
There is.
You know,
Wilson was right today.
About what, darling?
About your looking
so beautiful.
Did he say that?
He did.
"The memsahib
was a sensation today.
A beautiful sensation."
You heard him,
didn't you?
I did.
But you'd like
to hear it again?
Does it matter?
No.
That doesn't matter.
What does matter
is us.
Yes.
Everything's
working out well.
Do you remember what the papers
said about us in New York?
How's that?
"The romantic Macombers
are going adventuring
Into darkest Africa."
I liked that.
You did?
When that gossiping old monkey
had us on the verge...
that was different.
But that's all past.
Margaret.
I don't know how to tell you
what a different man I am...
What a different man
I'll be.
You know, Margo...
it's almost as though
we two just met.
Almost.
This may be silly, but...
I believe I'm...
I'm in love with you
again.
You're so lovely.
Somehow I can never
quite reach you.
Margaret.
Margo?
Margo.
Margo.
Sounds like
an old-Timer.
Listen to him cough.
Is he very close?
A mile or so upstream.
Does roaring
carry that far?
Sounds as though
he were right in camp.
Oh, it carries
a devil of a ways.
Hope he's
a shootable cat.
If I get a shot,
Where should I hit him
to stop him?
In the shoulders,
neck if you can...
Shoot for bone.
Break him down.
I hope I can place it
properly.
You shoot very well.
Take your time,
make sure.
It's the first one in
that counts.
What range will it be?
Um, can't tell...
The lion has something
to say about that.
enough so you can make sure.
At under 100 yards?
Hundred's about right...
Might have to take him
a bit under.
Shouldn't chance the shot
at much more than that.
Hundred's
a decent range.
You'll hit him
wherever you like at that.
Well, here comes
the memsahib.
Good morning.
Just as soon as you deal
with your breakfast.
Ndiyo, bwana.
How are you feeling?
Marvelous.
I'm very excited.
Well...
I'll just go out and see
that everything's ready.
He's a noisy beggar.
We'll have to put
a stop to that.
What's the matter,
Francis?
Nothing.
Tell me.
Don't you feel well?
It's that darn roaring.
It's been going on
all night, you know?
Well, why didn't you
wake me?
You slept very soundly.
Oh, I'd love
to have heard it.
