Yeah, yeah, yeah!
It's got to be 15 years since I really looked at that statue.
Yes. Uh-huh. 11:00.
We'll be there. Okay.
What? Oh. Hung up.
I found us a buyer.
Honey, go get help!
I should take some pictures of Mimi.
You can never have enough pictures of your kids.
We have, like, 400 albums.
I've never looked at them, but they exist. It's good.
Come on. Let's go.
Michael, you have a call.
- I told you to hold all calls. - Richard, it's the police.
What?
On top of everything else, didn't I tell you to wait in the apartment-
I want to see Statue of Liberty.
- I said we'd do that tomorrow. - You too busy for Mimi Siku!
I want to see Statue to Liberty, I go.
I've got a life here. I can't change everything just because you showed up.
- Then why you bring me here? - I was obligated.
You obligated be with me?
Mimi. Mimi? Mimi!
Mimi, come here! Stop!
Come back here! Whoop! Mimi, I didn't mean that!
You said "obligated"!
I didn't mean that. Now, stop! Look out!
Mimi, come on!
Get out of the street! Come on! Get out of the street!
I want to go home. You not want Mimi Siku here!
I want you here. I'm sorry.
Look, stop, stop. Look.
Sorry I said that stuff. I was just angry.
You always angry at me. "Don't do this! Don't do that!"
This is New York. This is a dangerous jungle.
- Mimi Siku not scared. Mimi Siku a man. - No, you're not a man.
You are an adolescent.
- Adolescent? - Yes. An adolescent.
You don't have a wife. You don't have a family to support.
You are free to do whatever you want.
You're an adolescent.
What? No, no, no, no!
I am not an adolescent. I'm a man.
- I'm a man too. - Not here you're not a man.
You're a 13-year-old boy running around in a loincloth.
I'm a man too!
Okay, okay. You're right. You are a man.
But you're gonna have to learn what men do in my jungle.
And you have to learn how to breathe when you run.
Okay, first lesson. Ooh!
You wanna go some place in my village,
all you gotta do is wave your arm.
Wave your arm.
- Magic. - Magic if he understands English.
- Fulton Fish Market on "ze" double. - Okay.
W- Where is he?
Richard, this guy gets very upset when you're late.
Yes, well, he's gonna be here. He's obviously delayed-
Here he is! Okay.
- Get your stuff. Get out the other side. - Thank you very much.
- You call this a tip? - Mimi, watch traffic when you're comin' around.
- What took you- - We're meeting this guy at a fish stall?
No, he is above a fish stall.
Much better.
- Ooh! - I love what they've done with the place.
Let me tell you something. This guy has a lot of money.
He's the king of caviar, and he's gonna save our asses.
So you just play your hunches and let me play mine.
Okay, okay. Now, listen up.
When you get to the top of the stairs, ring the bell once,
knock twice, then ring three times.
Okay.
Don't forget.
What happened to his fingers?
He rang four times. Good luck.
Ring twice, knock once, ring three times, okay.
- Oh, boy. - Okay, um, okay.
- So it is- - What? What?
- Ring twice. - Ring twice.
- Knock once and then ring three times. - You sure it's three?
Yes, it's definitely three times.
Okay.
Okay, that's wrong.
- So what we do- Ring three times. - I'm not sure-
- Knock once and ring twice. - No, it-
- Yeah, yeah. - We're gonna get shot.
Uh-uh. It's gonna be fine. It's gonna be good.
That really worked great. I remember differently now. I got what it is.
- All right, Mr. Wizard. Take over. - Ring twice.
- Take over. - You knock once.
- And ring- - No! You do not ring 4 times.
Open damn door!
Chort vozmi!
- Hi there. I am, uh- - Hi.
Don't say a word. I know, I know.
Let me introduce my comrades to you.
Stand up. Thank you. Sit down.
Come! We talk beans.
Sit, sit.
Coffee on market now 83 cents one pound.
I pay you 85 cents one pound.
- Why you take trade? - Shh! - Uh, Michael.
- 85 cents more than 83 cents? - Yes, it is.
- Tell wild child to shut up! - Hey!
He's just a kid. Listen, he's an unusual kid.
- Not now, Mama. - So we have a deal then?
I want guarantee the price not drop below 75.
- You got it. - Wait a minute!
There are no guarantees. This is speculation.
I know speculation.
He knows speculation, for heaven's sake. When can we expect payment?
This is lovely.
Look, Richard, it's cash.
Oh, my.
Take!
Look, um, would it be possible to talk to my partner in private?
Of course.
- Richard, let's go. - Ooh!
It'll just take a moment.
Richard, are you out of your mind?
Now we're laundering money for the Russian Mafia?
Yes, we are. And we'll iron it for them too.
- Him big buradu. - Yes, he is.
Come on, Mimi. Let's go.
- You cannot walk away on this, please. - No deal.
- Think about this for one second! - Just get us out of this.
- All right. Oh! - Problem?
Oh, no. No, no. Not at all. Uh-
Mr. Cromwell had to take his son home.
But he thinks you're a stand-up guy, Mr. J.
- He feels that- - My name is...
Alex Vasili Sergei Fyodor Jovanovic.
Not Mr. J.
It's a good name.
We have deal?
Mmm.
- Here you go. - Thanks, buddy.
Now this is America, huh?
- Mmm! - Tastes like lizard guts.
Oh, lizard guts.
Many tribes in your village, Baboon.
Yeah, I guess there are.
- Music. - What? What?
Come on, Baboon! We dance!
I don't dance in public.
Come. I'll show you.
Pretty cool. I haven't danced like that since I was a little kid.
Oh. You'll get used to those shoes.
Huh? Here. Why don't you give her the flowers?
Charlie, how'd that interview go?
- You home, Charlie? - Michael, I'm in here!
- Charlie? - I've been in this bathroom for hours!
- Make sure you open a window. - Michael!
Michael, I'm being attacked by a giant spider!
Oh! I can see it! Move away from the door!
- Grab this thing. Come on. Come on. - Do something!
I'm doing something. I'm gonna fight it. Stay away from the door!
Look at that. Oh, it's a big one! It's a big one!
- Be careful! - I'm gonna put it in the wastebasket.
Don't come out here yet. It's still moving.
- Put the thing back in its box. - What?
It's as big as an ox!
You bad girl, Myteka. Stay here.
To him it's like a pet.
No, no, no. A dog is a pet, Michael. A cat is a pet!
Although for your son, a cat is a dietary supplement as well.
We'll just keep him out on the balcony.
How do you know it hasn't already laid eggs in the apartment?
I'll have the place fumigated.
What if they miss one and it crawls into my ear...
while I'm sleeping and lays its eggs in my brain?
We'll have to have them come back and spray again.
This is serious! We have to move!
- You're blowing this out of proportion. - Oh!
Ian. Great. I've really missed you.
Is Charlotte all right?
Look, if something dramatic has happened, it should be on film.
I have a shoot tomorrow which I was unable to prepare for...
because I was trapped in the bathroom all day by his son's pet spider.
So I'll be spending the night at the loft to make up for lost time.
So the appearance of little Mowgli is straining the relationship?
Ian, you're furniture, and furniture doesn't talk.
Furniture may not talk, Michael, but it listens,
better than you do.
I'm an artist, Michael. You look at something and see what it is.
- I look at something and see what it can be...
and who can wear it.
Charlotte.
You all right?
Charlotte's mad.
- She doesn't like me. - No, no, no, no.
Come on. It's not you at all. It's me.
She's afraid of change.
Why did Paliku leave you, Baboon?
Boy, um-
I probably took her for granted.
So now you're with Charlotte?
Yes, I am.
Many females in your village, Baboon.
Mm-hmm.
Why you pick only one?
Well, when you pick one to love, it's very different.
It's like there's a big picture of her in front of your face at all times.
And the picture's so big you can't see any other females.
Well, I try harder to make Charlotte like me.
- Hi! - Hello, Jan. You look nice today.
Thank you.
This... is Mimi Siku.
Mimi, this is Mrs. Kempster. I think you know Karen.
- Isn't he adorable? - Mom!
- Hello, Mimi Siku! - Jan.
I am so happy that you've come to our house...
- Jan. - in the country to spend the night!
- He's not deaf. - Although he might be now.
I can't thank you enough for letting him spend the night.
I've really got to spend some time with Charlotte.
It's our pleasure.
Everything he needs is in the knapsack here. He sleeps in a hammock.
It's in there. He'll set it up somewhere around the yard.
Okay!
- Is Richard home? - He left early for the office.
Over in the Comex, coffee continues to plunge...
from its high of 971I2 less than a week ago.
- In trading today, the price of futures was at 68.95.
The blue chip indicator rose slightly-
In other news-
What kind of a dumb name is Mimi Siku?
Don't be rude. He probably thinks Andrew is a dumb name.
So do I.
- I think Mimi Siku is a nice name. - You would.
These are my father's fish.
That's a poe-
Poe- Uh-
It's a poecilia latipinna. They're from the Amazon.
We call it rishi.
- Rishi? - Yeah.
Oh. I like that name better.
At least I can pronounce it.
Oh! Hi. Do you like fish, Mimi?
I'm cooking fish for lunch.
- "We call it rishi. " - Fish.
- Oh! - This not fish.
- Not taste good. - It's frozen, Mimi.
You have to cook it first. Oh! Poor thing.
Be honest. Which do you like best for the flower girl's dress?
Yeah?
- Michael, it's me! - Richard, not now.
- Charlotte and I are just about to- - Look toward the kitchen.
Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here.
Great. Okay. All right, Richard. Thanks.
Bye.
Excuse me just for a second, please.
What? What? What?
- I made the deal. - What deal?
Uh, with Jovanovic. After you left, I made the deal.
- Are you outta your mind? - Yes, yes.
- I am. I am outta my mind. Squid? - No, no, no.
How did you get the certificates out of the vault without my signature?
- Well- - You forged my signature?
I'm sorry. I was afraid we would lose everything.
- What did you do with the money? - It's here. Here!
You're walking around New York City...
with a million dollars in a suitcase?
Not so loud. Would you- It's good.
Hi. The worst part-
- There's a worst part? - Oh, yes, there is.
Coffee fell below 75 this morning.
- Let me think. Let me think. - Yes.
Come on.
We will go to Jovanovic. Tell him we made a mistake. Give him the money back.
- Charlotte, hi. - Richard, what you are doing here?
There's a very big problem...
- with the coffee trade. - Don't tell me. You're leaving.
- This is very important to me. - And I'm not?
Of course, you're important.
You are the most important thing in the world to me,
except for this other thing I gotta do now.
This better be an emergency.
It is. We're gonna die.
Does anyone know where Mimi is?
Mom, Mimi's doin' something bad.
Oh!
Well, um, isn't that interesting?
Me cook real fish. You taste?
Try everything once, I always say.
Oh. Hot. Okay.
That is very tasty. Where'd you get the fish?
Mom, Tarzan's eating Daddy's fish.
House pond.
House pond?
We'll manage to survive this, okay?
- Easy for you to say. I got kids to feed. - So do I.
But mine want Nike and Nintendo.
Yours wants blowguns and Meow Mix.
Beluga. Best caviar in whole world.
- Oh, yes, yes. Bar none. - Delicious.
- The best. - Very good.
Taste.
- No, not without toast points. - Tempting, tempting.
- Taste! - Yeah, all right.
- Right out of the fish. - Mmm!
- It's so fishy. - Very fishy. Eggy.
Morrison tell me coffee now below 70, no?
We were as shocked as you are.
- Ow. - Much lower than 75.
It was wrong to sell you the coffee futures. We want to buy them back.
- How much? - The same.
A million dollars.
You lose money?
Oh! Don't worry about that.
We value your friendship is what it is.
- And our fingers. - Very good.
I do not know.
What's not to know? You're cleaning up here.
- You are shrewd men. - No, no, no, no.
Believe me, shrewdness is not in the picture.
I told you. Time heals everything.
It just- Oh, the door's locked.
Well, that's a statement, I guess. Okay, so-
I'll keep these certificates at my house and-
Don't worry about me.
I'm sure there's a train I can take.
It's not like it's a dangerous neighborhood or anything.
Hi. How ya doin'?
And this is supposed to be a bribe?
- Is it working? - It's pretty effective.
I'll get some champagne.
And I'll change into something more comfortable.
Huh?
Oh, no!
Oh, girl. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that.
That was an accident. Come on.
Oh. Oh. Ah.
Coco, Coco. Come on. Coco? Coco?
Michael, I was thinking about taking tomorrow morning off.
Yes, that's a great idea. Whatever you'd like to do.
'Cause then it would be just you and me, wouldn't it?
Coco?
Coco, Coco.
Here. Snap out of it. Come on.
Come on, Coco. You're killin' me. Wake up!
Coco, it's a mouse! Go get it!
Oh.
Coco, Coco, Coco. Coco? Coco?
Mmm.
Jan!
Now where is this champagne?
Let's go in the kitchen.
You're so feisty today.
It's nice to see you and Coco getting along so well.
She's fast.
What do you say we take the champagne and drink it in the bedroom?
So, uh, let me just get this clear in my head.
You thought that I wouldn't notice? Those fish cost thousands of dollars.
I think what we have here is an intercultural misunderstanding.
Why don't you tell that to my yellow dwarf cichlids?
Because they can't hear any more!
- Fish taste good. - Well, let's hope so, Mimi.
You just downed $10,000 worth of sushi.
There's still one left.
Winky.
My most loyal fish.
Remember how he used to always follow my finger across the glass?
Now I'm gonna have to go like this.
Everybody, go to bed. It's late. Give me this.
- No. - Come on. All right, keep it.
- Mimi, you go to bed too. - You know, I mean-
- Come on. Come on. - It's one thing to-
- You have no idea what this kind of- - Yes, I know-
Wait.
Wait. Now.
Ah!
You Pinare now.
Choose a name.
Choose for me.
Ukume.
What?
- Ukume. - What does it mean?
It means...
sound of rain on river water.
Ukume. It's pretty.
Jan! Jan!
You're goin' to camp. End of discussion.
- Dad? But Mom, we didn't do anything. - Not understand problem.
Look, I'll tell you the problem, Mimi.
You started a wildfire in my yard. Ya ate my yellow dwarf cichlid...
- and now you're putting the moves on my 12-year-old daughter.
- That's just not true. - Oh, well, there. See?
- Maybe you're overreacting? - I was putting the moves on him.
Tell me I didn't hear that!
Honey, maybe we should be grateful...
that this happened at home.
- Mom- - Hold on!
Nothing happened!
You know what, Karen? You're still goin' to camp!
An all-girls camp!
- Yes! - My name's not Karen any more.
- It's Ukume. - First dibs on Ukume's room.
Oh, now, this makes me feel a whole lot better!
Karen? Karen, honey?
- I still don't understand the problem. - Not now. He might bite you.
- Hello? - Richard, it's Morrison.
- Yeah? - Let's just go away.
- I had another visit from Jovanovic. - Yeah?
- Then you haven't seen what's happening? - Seen what?
Price of coffee is soaring. Jovanovic thinks you screwed him.
- He may be coming for the certificates. - You mean he's angry?
- You slept like a log last night.
- Charlie? - Hmm?
- How would you feel about Mimi being in the wedding?
I thought he was gonna be gone by then.
- Remember, it's just you and me. - I remember.
No business, no Mimi. What is it, Richard? I can't-
Stop, stop, stop. What?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Don't panic, please.
Should we go out for breakfast or stay in?
Michael?
Okay, everybody! Change of plans!
Jan, you take everyone out for a big breakfast! Bring a change of clothes!
- I told you. - Karen, we don't have time for this.
I'm not goin' to an all-girls camp.
Karen, open this door right now!
Calm down. What is goin' on?
...with a big knife!
Karen, open the door right this minute!
You get the car ready. I'll take care of her, okay?
Go, go! Please, please! Go! Go.
Andrew, clear the door.
Cool.
Karen! Open this door.
Karen, open this door right now. Do you hear me?
- Your father's very mad. - I'm not coming out!
I'll get matches. We'll smoke her out.
Andrew, get back here. I can handle this.
Karen, this is getting really, really boring!
- Open it! Come on! - Any word from the Russians?
Not yet. No, no. Karen! Open up!
- What's goin' on? - Karen locked herself in the bedroom.
Come on, honey. Open this door, or you know what's gonna happen?
- Andrew is gonna smoke you out! - Cool!
- I am kidding. Get back here. - Calm down.
Please, calm down. Where's Mimi?
I don't know. He's probably in a bar hitting on a cocktail waitress.
- What? - Karen. Your son spent the night in his hammock with my daughter.
Okay?
- Was there a pot involved? - No, there was no pot involved.
You have nothing to be upset about.
- There is nothing to be upset about? - No!
Come here.
There's no reason to be upset, huh?
How about the fact that your son ate my prizewinning fish, including Winky.
And the fact that the Russian Mafia is due here any moment.
I guess you're right.
That's a pain that's here to stay.
Screaming's no way to deal with a child.
You've been a father for 3 days, you're giving me lessons?
You sound like an idiot.
I'm a parent, therefore, I'm an idiot.
I have spent every day for the last 12 years worrying about my kids.
About their safety, about their happiness, their crooked teeth.
- No offense. - None taken.
None of this means anything, because in the next few days your son will be gone.
Open this door! Karen! Open up!
I've gotta get her out of here.
Look, two shoulders are better than one, right? Come on.
Baboon is here. He made peace.
All right!
- Oh. - Awesome fall, Dad.
Thank you, Andrew.
Okay, we gotta get Jan and the kids in the car before Jovanovic gets here.
Andrew, meet me downstairs.
- Are you okay, Daddy? - I'm fine. Let me lean on ya, honey.
- Mimi, come on downstairs. - Coming.
Anybody can land on their feet.
- Okay, Andrew, let's go! - Where are we going?
French toast sale going on. Oh!
Good morning.
Sorry.
Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.
Give me coffee certificates.
You don't think I would keep certificates around my house?
Don't make me lose temper.
Ow. Ow. Ow.
Dad keeps everything in the bookcase.
Andrew! Ow!
Behind the Bible and Judith Krantz.
Thank you, Andrew.
Oh. Scruples.
Could not put it down.
Oh!
All right, so, uh, you have your certificates.
And I would appreciate it if you would just take them and leave my house.
- Sit. - Sure.
First, I teach never to make fool of Jovanovic again.
Rope him down.
"Rope him down"?
I have an idea.
- You'll need these. - What? What?
Ow!
Couldn't we discuss this over a lovely cup of coffee?
- Quiet! - Or Jan could whip up some borscht.
- You make a fool of Jovanovic... - No.
in front of my comrades and my community.
You waste my time. You try to cheat me.
- Oh! - Now... you must pay.
Ooh!
Sit still, coward.
Now, I teach you...
never... never to make a fool of Jovanovic again.
Eeny?
- Meeny? - Uh-uh.
Miney? No, need that one for traffic.
Mo?
Huh?
What?
Eee! Spider!
I hate spiders!
Kill spider! Kill spider quickly!
Not me! Spider!
Don't move! The spider could kill you.
Kill spider. Shoot, boy. Go ahead.
Don't worry about mess!
- Get him, Mimi! - I'm coming, Daddy!
Aah!
Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!
- Aah! - Get away!
Don't you do that to my son!
Show 'em what the Kempsters are made of!
Bite 'im, Andrew! Use those crooked teeth!
Crap!
Shoot again, Baboon! Shoot again!
Ah!
- Aah! - Good boy, Andrew!
Daddy?
Don't shoot.
Oh.
Baboon, when thumb doesn't work, Pinare do this.
Oh, that's gotta hurt. Ooh!
I'm startin' to really like that spider.
Please, don't punch spider at me any longer!
I'm going. I'm going.
I have many enemies but none like that spider.
Drive!
# Hey #
Karen, time to come inside, baby!
I want you to have this.
Well, Mimi, here's all your stuff.
Better get goin', huh? Your dad's waiting.
Bye, Michael. Bye, Mimi.
Come on. I'm gonna take you someplace.
Come on. Come on. Come on. Excuse me. Excuse me.
Come on.
Last time I was here...
I bought that for your mom.
I want to go back home.
- You sick? - No.
You sure?
All right, um, but we got to come back here in a couple of days. Tell you why.
Fourth of July. It's like that Fanenteyou celebration of yours.
But here it's big. There's boats everywhere and thousands of people.
And at night, they shoot off fire in the sky like you've never seen.
I fail the chief, Baboon.
How did you fail the chief?
Didn't get the fire from the Statue of Liberty.
The fire isn't real.
The fire's in here.
Chief knows that.
I miss Paliku.
I want to go back home.
Home.
All right.
Ouch. Oh. Almost forgot.
You'll be needin' this.
- You keep it. - No, Mimi.
- No, no, no. - Here.
If you kill a fly, you will be a real Pinare.
Yeah, like that's gonna happen.
You know, I will practice.
That way I can come down and hunt with you.
You'll never come to Lipo Lipo.
American Airlines announces the final boarding call...
for Flight 935 to Caracas, Venezuela.
- Time to go. - Gate 48.
- All passengers- - Thanks for the blowgun.
Mimi, got you somethin'.
It's for you, but I want you to open it in the plane.
Don't open it now. I also got ya...
this.
Fire from Statue.
Pretty cool, huh?
Be careful with it though.
Wakatepe.
Charlie, I got a great idea.
What do you say you and I get the hell outta here?
Tomorrow. Just the two of us.
Head out to our favorite spa, that big suite. Get to know each other again.
- That's not good for me, darling. - Me neither.
I really want to film all that,
but I've got an appointment with my chiropractor this weekend.
- You know my back affects my work. - Oh, I know.
- We could do it a week Friday. - That's not good for me.
It's good for Ian.
- Whatever's good for Ian. - I suggest a following Wednesday.
Wednesdays are good.
Cromwell! Coffee's up another two points.
My boys, I never doubted you for a minute.
We go to the trading floor with those certificates and make money.
Money is honey.
Oh, look at those prices!
Boys, we're gonna clean up.
- I ever tell you about cocoa in '73? - Many times.
There I was with 800 lots of cocoa,
back in the days before greed became a dirty word.
Now, I don't have to explain that to you, my boy.
You're a professional.
But that Cromwell, he's a disaster waiting to happen.
I don't know what's going on with him.
Between me and you, Cromwell has become a colossal pain in the-
Ooh!
Yes!
Uh, George? Uh, get him something-
Michael! Where you goin'?
- "Not only did he learn by-" - "Experience. "
"Experience, but...
- "instincts... - Good.
long dead, became alive again. "
- Baboon? - I nailed a fly.
- No! - You don't believe me?
- I'll show you. - When?
Right now.
Baboon!
Oh!
Look at you.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Now you're a Pinare, Baboon.
Will you stay with me in Lipo Lipo?
For a while. If you teach me how to hunt.
Oh. Got you something.
- Maybe you can use this. - Oh!
The real deal.
How's Karen?
I don't know. Why don't you ask her yourself?
Now that's a very big bug.
Honey, this isn't one of those topless tribes, is it?
Don't even think about that, Andrew.
I can't, Dad. I'm too nauseous from the boat ride.
Ukume! Ukume!
Mimi! Mimi!
- Karen! - Ah!
Looks too hot.
Too hot.
Aaah! Look at my hand!
