:05:01
- You think so?
- I know so.
:05:04
Well, when do you plan on leaving?
:05:06
In a week or 10 days. We'll work here
and then we'll get our shots and take off.
:05:10
- And who's gonna be in this picture?
- We have Phil Duncan and Kay Gibson.
:05:14
That's good. How long are you
planning on staying there?
:05:16
Oh, four or five months.
Long enough to make a picture.
:05:20
- And have ourselves a safari.
- Safari?
:05:22
Yeah, haven't you ever wanted
to shoot an elephant?
:05:25
- No, I don't think so, John.
- Well, a lion or a buffalo.
:05:28
This is a safari, kid. The real thing.
:05:30
- Who's gonna pay for all this?
- Don't worry.
:05:33
What's your financial situation?
:05:35
- It remains unchanged.
- So you're broke?
:05:38
Depends on what you call broke.
I owe a quarter million.
:05:41
- Quarter of a million?
- Closer to 300,000.
:05:43
- $300,000, John, and you're not worried?
- I think about it now and then.
:05:48
- Do you see a way out?
- This picture.
:05:51
Now do you see why
I want to go to Africa?
:05:53
I've got nothing else to lose.
Even if a lion or a buffalo gets me...
:05:56
...my last minute on earth
will be a happy one.
:05:59
I'll just think of my creditors when they
find out I've been eaten alive...
:06:03
...and it'll all seem worthwhile.
:06:06
Okay, okay, John. How about a script?
:06:10
There's one around here somewhere.
We don't have a title yet.
:06:13
It's called African Trader
or African something.
:06:16
Miss Wilding?
:06:22
Where's a copy of that goddamned script?
:06:24
I haven't seen it, John.
:06:26
Then find it. What kind of a secretary
are you? What do you do all day?
:06:30
I've been typing your letters
and answering the telephone.
:06:33
- Balls.
- I have.
:06:35
You were competent
when you first got here.
:06:37
Now you just hang around all day
spying for Paul Landers.
:06:41
It's not true. I don't spy for anybody.
Especially Mr. Landers.
:06:45
Find the script, then.
:06:46
We have a meeting with Landers
and his money men in an hour.
:06:49
Right.
:06:51
- Paul Landers is producing this?
- That's right.
:06:54
And you know why I agreed
to work with him again?
:06:57
No.
:06:58
Because it's the wrong thing to do.
