And beast of prey are still harder

to keep in hand.

Still I prefer animals

to human beings.

Well, I hope you'll be happy here.

Don't give him too much, Krishna.

This is where we crate the animals.

You work here to start with.

Brownie?

- Yes, Mr Sutton?

This is your new assistant, Leslie.

Good morning. Hello.

You're now on your own. I hope you show

Mrs Mulford is right to trust you.

Yes, I hope so, too.

Miss Trent?

Miss Trent?

Hello? Yes, I found the safe.

Excelsior 10/62.

I have taken a pattern of the lock.

Yes. As soon as the key is ready, you'll

have to get me shifted the night-duty.

All right, shock him harder, Kid.

Right in the guts.

Take him harder.

Go on, keep going.

Another one.

Right, left, right, left, right.

Come on there, Kid.

Hello, Inspector,

do you want a sparring with me?

Are you ok?

- I wasn't ready for that one.

Right, left, right, left.

- Hello, Champ.

Shut up.

- Hey, hello.

A little mistake. What do you want,

Inspector. Do you want to train with us?

No, I don't need it. I think,

I'm in rather good form today.

Champ, I want to ask you a question.

I don't like the sound of that at all.

Enough for the day, Kid.

Come in my office, will you?

What is Scotland Yard doing here?

Get out!

Whisky?

- No, thank you, I had breakfast.

Up to you.

- Larry Graeme is dead.

What about it?

Graeme used to be a boxer.

- Really? He never boxed here.

It's a shame.

What's a shame?

- Oh, he was a good man. As a boxer.

Otherwise not?

- That's just a matter of opinion.

Well, I suppose, that's all.

Thanks for the help.

Oh, by the way...

that's really an awful photo of him.

Next time you're down in my neighbourhood,

I'll show you a better one.

The first round really went to me, what?

Just a second.

The Champ wants you.

- What's up?

Listen. Elford of Scotland Yard

has just been here.

That's bad. What did he want?

All right. In that case it jumps on

for tomorrow morning. At 10:30.

Dad? What is it, Dad?

What's wrong with you? Dad?

Help! Help!

What's going on?

- My father had a heart attack.

He'll have to get to a hospital.

Please call an ambulance.

Please, can I make a phone call?

I have to get an ambulance.

A man has...

- Yes, there's a telephone back there.

Thank you.

I hope he's all right.

Yes, he seems to be coming around.

The ambulance is on the way?

Here it comes now.

An excellent organisation.

Has your father had this many times?

- Yes, especially in the last year.

All right.

Lend a hand here, son, will you?

Move on there, please. Move on,

keep moving, there. Be careful with him!

Wait! Wait!

Here you are! Your father's hat.

Thank you, Sir.
