Come.

Let me show you

where we're headed next.

The Congo.

To look for forest elephants?

Yes, if we can find any.

You see

there's an old, old Bacha legend

that tells of a solar eclipse

when thousands of elephants

made their way to Tembo Valley.

Wow.

I wonder why.

Nobody knows

but there's an eclipse

in a few weeks

in this exact spot

and I intend to

witness it firsthand.

Oh, I wish I could

see it with you, Dad.

Eliza, I received this medal

when I was in boarding

school about your age.

Perhaps you would like

to take it for luck.

"Awarded for bravery."

Oh...

It was nothing, really.

A blazing building,

20 students trapped

a makeshift rope ladder...

Well, never mind.

The point is, you will have

your own challenges, poppet

and I predict you will

meet them splendidly.

I looked everywhere for Darwin.

I looked everywhere for Darwin.

I didn't get to say good-bye.

I'm sorry, honey.

You'll see him again soon.

I love you.

I'll miss you, Mom.

You won't leave without him,

will you, Dad?

Of course not, poppet.

Okay, here's what I need for you

to get me in London:

CD's, boots, T-shirts.

Basically anything cool.

Don't forget. Cool.

Elizabeth!

It's time for takeoff.

Kiss your natural wilderness

girlhood good-bye.

If you leap awake

in the mirror of a bad dream

And for a fraction of a second

You can't remember where you are

Just open your window...

Bye, Dad.

And follow

your memory upstream

To the meadow in the mountain

Where we counted

every falling star

I believe a light

that shines on you

Will shine on you forever

And though I can't guarantee

There's nothing scary

hiding under your bed

I'm gonna stand guard

Like a postcard

of a golden retriever

And never leave

till I leave you

With a sweet dream

in your head

I'm gonna watch you shine

Gonna watch you grow

Gonna paint a sign

So you'll always know

As long as one and one

is two, ooh-ooh

There could never be

a father

Who loved his daughter

more than I love you.

Would you look at that?

Is that a new girl?

Oh, my goodness!

Oh, Sarah, can I borrow your...?

Darwin!

Well, you didn't think

I'd let you get civilized

without me, did you?

You can't be here!

Yes, it's a miracle

I survived the baggage hold.

You should know, your bags

are not handled with care.

I told you.

They don't allow chimps

in school.

Oh, they'll change their mind

when they meet me.

Oh, now let's take a look

at my new home.

Small, yet charming.

Not much in the way

of natural light

but haven't we really

had enough

of nature?

Dibs on this bed!

Ooh! Feel those springs--

firm, yet flexible!

Would you lend me

your cashmere sweater

for the dance?
