AMY CONCIERGE DAD DARIUS KAMARA MEGAN MOM MRS_FOSTER MR_FOSTER NOZIZWE RANGER SERVER TIM VENDOR KAMARA Megan, return to base. Incoming greet in one hour. MEGAN Copy, traveling. TIM Can you believe this? That�s a giraffe! That�s a real giraffe right there! Wow. TIM This one here. DARIUS Yeah. TIM You good with everything? DARIUS Yeah. TIM Yeah? NOZIZWE Hello, Tim? Yes. TIM Yes. NOZIZWE Welcome, to Ukubuyela Endle. And yes, we do offer traditional handshaking classes. TIM I�ll have to work on that. Nozizwe! It�s great to finally meet you in person. NOZIZWE Everybody calls me Mom Nozi. TIM Okay, Mom Nozi. Well, this is Darius Pacheco, the videographer and my right hand man. DARIUS Hi. NOZIZWE Ah, now that�s how you do it. Where are you from? DARIUS Cape Town, but I�ve been in the US the past few years working with Tim. NOZIZWE Welcome home. DARIUS Thank you. NOZIZWE Now, let�s get you inside out of this heat. TIM Thank you. DARIUS I�m gonna finish up here. TIM All right, cool. NOZIZWE I�ll take you to reception. TIM Yeah. MR FOSTER Oh... huh? MRS FOSTER Oh... huh? MEGAN Hi. MR FOSTER Hi. MRS FOSTER Hi. MEGAN Mr. And mrs foster, I�m Megan Henry. I�ll be your ranger tomorrow. MRS FOSTER Oh! MEGAN Why don�t we meet back here tomorrow morning, is 6:30 too early? MRS FOSTER No, that�ll be great. MEGAN Okay great. Have a good rest. Nice to meet you. TIM Oh wow. This is beautiful. NOZIZWE Thank you. We are very proud of it. Ukubuyela Endle means �a return to the wild.� TIM Well, I can�t thank you enough for letting us use your reserve for our little project. NOZIZWE Little? I�ve seen the presentation on your theme park ride. It will be like people are on an actual safari. TIM And then find out that it was sponsored by Ukubuyela Endle and want to come and experience the real thing. NOZIZWE I believe they call that synergy. TIM Yes, they do! NOZIZWE I�ve organized a ranger for tomorrow so you can get started straight away. TIM You know what, I think I�m just gonna stick around here, just get the lay of the land, relax a little bit, take some photos. NOZIZWE I�ll see if your room is ready. TIM All right, thank you! TIM Oh, can I help you with something? MEGAN I�m good, thank you. TIM Hi. MEGAN Hey. TIM I�m just checking out these photos, they�re incredible. How do lions stay so relaxed up in a tree like this? MEGAN Well, that�s a good place for a nap and a great place for a lookout. TIM How about this one too? This cheetah is beautiful. MEGAN Yeah, that�s one of my favourites. I took it last week. TIM You took this? MEGAN Yeah. TIM You�re a talented photographer. MEGAN Thank you. TIM Is there any way that I can buy these? MEGAN They�re not really for sale, but I could leave a few copies of them at the front desk for you if you want? TIM That would be great. Thank you. MEGAN Who should I say they�re for? TIM Uh, yeah. Tim Erickson. MEGAN Megan Henry. TIM Nice to meet you, Megan. MEGAN Yeah, you too. TIM And you�re sure I can�t help you with anything? MEGAN I got it, thanks. TIM Okay. MEGAN Hey, Kamara. KAMARA Hi. Wait, did you take that apart and then fix it again? MEGAN Yeah, just needed a little tweak. KAMARA Wow, I have to give it to you. You are pretty resourceful. MEGAN Yeah, if I could just figure out how to turn three weeks into six months, I would be golden. KAMARA I don�t know how you do it, working part time and finishing your Phd. It must all be so hard. MEGAN Yeah, sometimes, but I�m in South Africa living my dream, so. KAMARA Oh, and when is your thesis defence due again? MEGAN It�s due too soon. KAMARA Okay, and then what happens if you don�t finish it on time? MEGAN I�m going to feed myself to the lions. KAMARA Wow. MEGAN Hey, do you want to get dressed up and go over to the Boma for dinner? KAMARA What�s the occasion? MEGAN I don�t feel like doing my thesis? KAMARA Nice, nice. NOZIZWE Ah, good evening, ladies. KAMARA Ah, good evening, ladies. MEGAN Hi! Hi. KAMARA Hi! Hi. NOZIZWE Perfect timing for an introduction. Tim, this is Dr. Henry. TIM It�s nice to see you again. MEGAN You too. TIM Doctor? KAMARA She�s working on it. MEGAN This is my friend, Kamara. She�s one of the rangers here. KAMARA Not yet, I�m working on it. I�m a trainee. DARIUS And I�m Darius, I work with Tim. KAMARA Oh, hi. DARIUS Hi. MEGAN So how long will you be staying? TIM We�ll be here for three weeks so we�ll definitely be seeing each other again. MEGAN Absolutely. Well, we will let you enjoy your dinner. Have a good night. TIM You as well. NOZIZWE I�ll leave you to it, enjoy. TIM Thank you. KAMARA Wow, two very handsome guys and here we are, completely available. MEGAN Oh, speak for yourself. I�m available for one thing and that is work. KAMARA After knowing you for three years, I think I have that figured out. MEGAN Are you calling me boring? KAMARA No! Never. MEGAN I will have you know I think about things other than work all the time. Sometimes. Okay fine, every once in a while. Maybe I do spend a little too much time studying dung beetles. KAMARA Yeah. MEGAN Oh, morning Shandor. TIM Morning! MEGAN Oh, hey. Wow, that�s, um-- that�s a lot of great equipment for a safari. TIM Yeah, you can never have too much. MEGAN I agree. Besides, if you�re going out in the wild, you want to get as many good photos as you can. TIM Well, as long as we get some great video, we�re good. MEGAN Oh, are you filmmakers? TIM No, theme park designers. We�re here getting some ideas for our new attraction. MEGAN Cool, like a roller coaster? Or-- TIM No, but I�ve done those. This is a little more impressive. It�s an immersive attraction, virtual reality, special effects, robotic animals. MEGAN So all of this equipment just to make a fake savanna and fake lions that jump out and go �raah!� TIM Do lions go �raah?� So how long have you been a photographer? MEGAN Well, my grandpa got me my first camera when I was about four. I fancied myself pretty good at taking pictures of people�s noses. And then, you know, every once in a while I�d catch an ear. TIM Well, by the looks of it from those pictures inside, you�ve improved just a little bit. MEGAN Mmm, thank you. It�s just a hobby. TIM Oh? So you�re a ranger now? MEGAN Yeah, but in real life, I�m actually a research scientist. TIM Really? So I guess you�d know if a lion goes �raah.� MEGAN Mmm, I would. Oh, morning! Get on in. I should get back to work, but be careful out there. TIM I mean, it looks pretty safe to me. MEGAN Oh yeah, I mean, it looks innocent enough, but you see that field over there? Yesterday I was driving by and I spotted a pride of eighteen lions sleeping, completely hidden in the grass. TIM Eighteen lions? MEGAN Yeah. TIM Are they here at the lodge too? MEGAN Oh yeah, they�re free to roam wherever they want. TIM No fences. MEGAN No fences, no nothing. Have fun. TIM There�s eighteen lions over there. Well, there was-- DARIUS But there�s fences, right? TIM No, there�s no fences. MEGAN The babies are trying to cool themselves off with mud. MRS FOSTER Get some pictures. MEGAN Beautiful, aren�t they? MRS FOSTER Absolutely beautiful. MRS FOSTER What�s that noise? MEGAN What is... MEGAN Kamara. Come in, Kamara. Over. KAMARA What�s up? MEGAN Hey, so I just spotted a drone flying low over the park. Can you check it out? KAMARA Ten Four. I�m on it. MEGAN Thank you. MEGAN I think we�re pretty good here for now. MRS FOSTER Oh, it�s absolutely fabulous. MEGAN It never gets old. MRS FOSTER What�s that? DARIUS See, this is what I�m getting. TIM Oh yeah, check out that. What�s that? MEGAN Hey, what are you doing? TIM Oh, hey. We�re just checking to see what�s lurking in the bushes before we venture out. This drone is fantastic. DARIUS Yeah. MEGAN I�m sure it is, but you can�t use it here. TIM Really? MEGAN Really. TIM What�s the problem? MEGAN Uh, well, for starters, it�s illegal to use a drone in a legislated protected area, so if the authorities catch you, they�ll take your drone and you�ll be banned from using the reserve. TIM You�re kidding, right? MEGAN Nope. TIM Well, how am I supposed to get my job done? I need to use a drone. MEGAN The old fashioned way? Like everybody else. You get a ranger, you drive around, see if you can you spot something. TIM That doesn�t sound terribly efficient. MEGAN Well, neither is your drone seeing as you�re going to have to stop using it. TIM You just-- you have something against technology, right? MEGAN No, but I do have something against disturbing the animals in the natural world. TIM Personally, I don�t think a little drone is disturbing anything. It�s a flying camera. Think of it as a bird. MEGAN You can think of it however you want, but you�re going to have to stop using it. TIM I don�t think you�re right about that. MEGAN Would you prefer I write a ticket and give you a fine right now? TIM You don�t have the authority to do that. MEGAN As a park ranger, I do have the authority and I�m afraid you�re going to have to deal with me. TIM You? MEGAN Yeah. Me. Darius, can you please bring the drone in? Now. DARIUS Tim? TIM You can bring the drone in. Yeah. MEGAN Thank you. TIM You�re welcome. MEGAN Okay, I�ll see you later. NOZIZWE Morning, Megan. I was looking for you. I need a little favour. MEGAN Anything for you. NOZIZWE I was hoping you�d say that. I�ve changed your guests for today. I put the Fosters with Bandile. MEGAN Okay, no problem. NOZIZWE Thank you. MEGAN Yeah, I�ll see you later. NOZIZWE Okay. TIM Let�s go see some wildlife! DARIUS Oh yeah. MEGAN Tim? TIM Megan? MEGAN You know what? I think there might have been a mistake. I�m just gonna go check with Mom Nozi really quick. TIM Uh, no, I spoke to Nozizwe and she told us to take the vehicle that�s in the driveway at 7:00 a.m. It�s 7:00 a.m. and I don�t see any other vehicles. MEGAN You don�t have your drone with you, do you? TIM No, but I can go get it if you want me to. MEGAN If you�re all ready, we can head out. TIM Yeah. Oh, and today, we need to see some giraffes. MEGAN Oh, okay. Yeah, giraffes, I�ll just give them a call. TIM How difficult can it be to spot a giraffe? MEGAN All ready to go? TIM Yeah. DARIUS Yeah. MEGAN To the giraffes. They�re expecting us. DARIUS Yeah, good luck with that, man. There�s like zero signal out here. TIM Well, this is great. I guess my safari attraction is going to be a bunch of people looking out over an empty savanna, listening to weird sounds. MEGAN Shhh. TIM Darius, Darius! Look at that, look at this. Wow! How did you know it was there? MEGAN I know what to listen and look for. You know, the crazy thing is, you can be right beside them and not even realize it. TIM How? They�re so big, and beautiful. MEGAN Do you want to follow her? TIM Yeah, let�s do it. DARIUS Can we? TIM Please? Yeah, let�s do that. MEGAN Okay. TIM Hey, Darius. Just give me a minute, I�ll catch up with you. DARIUS Okay, cool. TIM Umm.. MEGAN Yeah? TIM I owe you a huge apology. I shouldn�t have had my drone out yesterday and I did not take being set straight very well. MEGAN It�s okay, I�m sorry too. I get a little passionate when it comes to the wildlife. TIM Well, I appreciate passion. You don�t have to be sorry, it was all on me. Can we just put this behind us and start fresh? MEGAN Sure. I would like that. TIM Do you want to grab a cold drink or something? MEGAN Uh, I have a ton of work I�ve got to get done. TIM Everybody needs a break. MEGAN Okay, yeah. Sure. I just need to go get changed, I can meet you on the veranda in twenty minutes? TIM Okay. TIM Hey. MEGAN Hey. TIM Look at this. MEGAN I know, they come almost every day. Here you go. TIM Thank you. MEGAN You�re welcome. TIM I got you an iced tea. MEGAN Thank you. TIM Oh man. You could be a professional. MEGAN Well, it�s just part of his job. TIM Which one? Research scientist? Ranger? Photographer? MEGAN Research. I�m working on my thesis so I need a ton of photos to do my defence. TIM Masters? phd? MEGAN phd in ethology. TIM Ethology? MEGAN Yeah, it�s the study of animal behaviour. TIM Like Jane Goodall? MEGAN Yeah, exactly. Yeah, she�s one of the greatest in our field. TIM So where did you study? MEGAN Braxton University in Pennsylvania. TIM What made you come out here? MEGAN The dream was always to come here to do research for my Phd. TIM So you�re an underachiever... It�s an expensive dream. MEGAN Yeah, and it was one I couldn�t really afford to be honest, but then I heard about this rangers program and it would allow me to work part time to pay for my expenses. So four years ago, I packed my bags, came out here, got my rangers license and here I am. TIM So you�ve been here for four years? MEGAN No, not all together. The first few years I was here I was here working as a ranger to get the money together that I needed to do my Phd. And then, I went back to Braxton to do all my courses. TIM So when did you come back here? MEGAN Five months ago to do my research and then now I�ve just been working on my thesis defence, which needs to be accepted before I get my Phd. TIM When do you have to have it completed by? MEGAN Now-ish. Yeah, I�m going back in a month to get the presentation ready. TIM Well, it seems like you got it all figured out. MEGAN Yeah, we�ll see. I still have a lot of research to do and then I have to come up with a creative way to present my thesis defence. That-- that is the scary part. TIM Wow, that�s a lot of pressure. MEGAN Yeah. Speaking of which, I really should get back to work. TIM Is it okay if I walked with you? MEGAN Yeah. Sure. TIM Okay. TIM So what exactly is the research you�re doing here? MEGAN The big cats, I study their population, their behaviour, their response to habitat loss. TIM For what purposes? MEGAN Conservation. A lot of the big cats are on a fast track to extinction. So. TIM That�s unthinkable. MEGAN Yeah. TIM You know, I admire you sacrificing so much to come out here and stick with it. MEGAN Thanks. I do it because I love it. Well, this is me. It�s been really nice talking with you. TIM Yeah. Yeah, you too. MEGAN And literally, I did all the talking. I don�t quite know how that happened. TIM I guess I�m an inquisitive human. MEGAN Yeah, well, you�d make a good scientist. TIM Oh, I don�t know about that, I don�t have the patience. The good thing about theme park design is that I get to travel a lot. I finish one project, then I move on to the next challenge. MEGAN Hmm. Do you like being on the go all the time? TIM Yeah. Yeah, I love it. I�m here. MEGAN If inspiration is what you�re looking for, you definitely came to the right place. I�ll see you tomorrow. TIM See you tomorrow. TIM Oh, look at that! So beautiful. Whoa, look at them go! Wow. TIM The wildebeests came in? DARIUS Tim, I want to see if I can get a few shots of the warthogs and impala. Yeah? TIM Yeah. DARIUS So I�ll catch up with you guys later. MEGAN Sounds good, see you in a bit. TIM All right, cool. TIM Oh, everyone�s meeting here now. MEGAN Mm-hmm. Hi! NOZIZWE How was lunch? MEGAN Oh, perfect as always. Thank you. NOZIZWE Excellent. I hope you�re both coming to the Boma for a braai tonight. MEGAN Wouldn�t miss it. NOZIZWE I�ll see you at six. TIM Okay. MEGAN Sounds good. TIM What�s a braai? MEGAN It�s kind of like a barbecue. TIM Well count me in. MEGAN Hey, would you be interested in doing a short walking safari? TIM Now? Here? MEGAN Yeah. TIM What about the eighteen lions? MEGAN Well, we have areas that are cleared by our trackers and we take the ranger trainees out there all the time. TIM Yet another job to add to your resume? MEGAN Yeah, well, we all participate in training here. Mostly I just hang out with Kamara. Come on. TIM Okay. TIM This is what I envisioned for the theme park. Imagine bringing this experience to kids and families. I just gotta figure out how to make it happen. Wow, look at that! MEGAN Oh yeah, they�re so cute aren�t they? TIM So cute. MEGAN Well, I think it all sounds very exciting. TIM It�s not as exciting as what you do. MEGAN What? You create. Not everyone can do that. How did you get into it? TIM For my tenth birthday, my parents took us all to Disney and it blew my mind. I came home that day and I said, �I want to design something like that so I can go whenever I want.� MEGAN So you went to Penn State, did you grow up in Pennsylvania? TIM No. No, I grew up in upstate New York. MEGAN Oh, where do you live? TIM New York City. MEGAN New York City... TIM Yeah, a long way from home, huh? MEGAN Must be exciting. TIM It is, it is. I love it. I work for this great boutique agency called Colvin Designs. It�s the best job ever, and I recently-- I�m working on this proposal for Chipperfield Theme Parks. They�re one of the biggest players in their industry. MEGAN Wow, that�s amazing. TIM Yeah. If we get this contract, it would be a huge step up in my career. Now I�m the one that�s been talking the entire time. I�m sorry about that. MEGAN It�s okay, I don�t mind. I�ve liked hearing more about you. NOZIZWE All right, are you ready for tonight�s entertainment? TIM Oh yeah. NOZIZWE Of course you are. TIM Oh yeah. NOZIZWE Drums, please. KAMARA Oh, that was fun last night! MEGAN It really was, Mom Nozi knows how to throw a party. KAMARA And you were actually having a good time. I�ve never seen you laugh so much. MEGAN Okay, me? What about you and Darius, huh? What�s going on there? KAMARA He�s cute, isn�t he? And Tim? What a handsome guy. He�d be perfect for you. MEGAN Yeah, I�ve had the �perfect for you guy�, it hasn�t worked out so well for me, so I�m going to stick with my very faithful companion, work. KAMARA Ah. Work isn�t the only thing in life, you know. MEGAN No, but right now, getting my Phd kinda is. KAMARA Okay, too bad because Tim is so handsome. MEGAN Hmm, I hadn�t noticed. KAMARA Oh, you coming with me to the school tomorrow? MEGAN Oh, yeah. Of course, I wouldn�t miss it. KAMARA Um, why don�t we invite Tim and Darius? MEGAN I don�t know. I mean, Tim is here to work on his presentation and... KAMARA It�s just that, I�d like to spend some time with Darius and it would be awkward if I invited him on his own. MEGAN Okay, fine. We will invite them. TIM Thank you for inviting us. MEGAN Yeah, of course. You know, Kamara actually went to school here. Her and Mom Nozi come and visit the students every month. TIM Really? KAMARA So, what do you think? TIM It�s amazing! Yeah, Megan said that you went to school here. KAMARA Yeah, well, except when I started, there was one small building. Mom Nozi made all of this possible. MEGAN Yeah, she raised all the money using profits from the reserve. TIM It�s so great that she�s done well and is paying it forward. KAMARA Did you want to meet some of the students? DARIUS Yes, please! TIM Yeah! Please, yes. KAMARA This way. TIM Okay. TIM All right. MEGAN Get in there! MEGAN I�m losing my beat! Okay, okay. TIM Shoulders, right? Okay, all right. NOZIZWE Welcome to Ukubuyela Endle. AMY Thank you, I�m Amy Bradshaw. NOZIZWE Miss Bradshaw, of course. We have one of the best suites ready for you in the upper lodge. AMY Oh, fantastic. TIM That was incredible. MEGAN Yeah, I�m so glad you enjoyed it. TIM Yeah. MEGAN I think they�re so sweet. AMY Okay, Daddy. I�ll let you know how it goes. Yeah, sure. Talk soon. Love you, bye! MEGAN I�m not even kidding. AMY Tim! TIM Amy? AMY Hi! It�s so good to see you. TIM Wow, yeah, it�s-- wow! I�m so sorry, this is Megan Henry, she�s our ranger here. AMY Oh, ranger! Oh, hi. Amy. MEGAN Nice to meet you. AMY Nice to meet you too. TIM Amy and I went to school together, we went to the same design college. MEGAN Oh, very cool. Well, I hope you enjoy your stay. AMY I�m sure I will, thanks. TIM What are you doing here? AMY Oh, it�s a long story. We have so much to catch up on, but I am just about to order lunch. Do you want to join me? TIM Yeah, sure. Do we have enough time before our next drive? MEGAN Oh, yeah, yeah. There�s time, for sure. Why don�t you go ahead, I�ll catch up with you later. TIM No, no. You should join us. MEGAN Oh, no. I have so much I have to do. I should get back to work anyway. TIM Are you sure? MEGAN Yeah, absolutely. It was really nice to meet you, Amy. AMY You too! MEGAN Bye. TIM Okay, see you in a bit. MEGAN Yeah. AMY Looking good! TIM Thank you, so are you. AMY Thanks. Wow, it�s absolutely gorgeous here. TIM Yeah! AMY I cannot believe it has been ten years since we saw each other. TIM Ten years. AMY Since we graduated. AMY I mean, it�s so great to see you again. TIM You too. So are you here on vacation? AMY No. I am here for work. We�re actually going to be working together. At least, I hope. TIM You�re working for my company now? AMY The thing is, Tim, my dad just bought your company, Colvin Designs. So, um... TIM Wow... Oh. AMY And I am now running the theme park division. TIM So does that mean you�re my-- AMY Boss... TIM Boss... AMY Yes. TIM You�re my boss... AMY I am. So I�m guessing you�re wondering why I am here. TIM That�s the burning question. AMY I knew you�d be shocked when you found out, so I thought it would be best to come here and tell you in person, especially since we�ve known each other for so long, you know. TIM Yeah, yeah. Did you know that I was with working for Colvin Designs before the sale? AMY No, not at all. Imagine my surprise. TIM Well, I appreciate you coming all the way out here to let me know. AMY Yes, of course. We have a lot of things to look at with the new company and I guess I just wanted to check in with you to see if we could work together. You know? TIM Well, I�m sure we can. AMY Yes? TIM Yeah... AMY All right. TIM You know, why don�t we go on a drive so I can show you the world I�m planning to bring into my new concept. AMY I would love that. TIM Great. AMY Hi! SERVER Can I take your order? AMY Oh wow! TIM Look at that! It�s a baby! AMY They�re so cute! Hey, Tim, why don�t we get a few shots of you out there. I mean, it�ll be great for publicity. Can you imagine the headline, �Theme park designer walking with the elephants.� MEGAN I�m really sorry, Amy, but we�re just a little too close to do that. AMY But why? They�re so calm, everything looks so serene. MEGAN I know it looks serene, it�s just really not safe. AMY Oh come on, it would just be for a minute. MEGAN It doesn�t really matter. See, the thing is, we have to remember that this is their world. We�re simply visitors in it. As long as we respect their space, they�ll let us be here. TIM And besides, we don�t know what�s lurking out there? AMY Elephants? TIM And lions, hyenas, leopards. AMY All right, let�s move on then. Can we find a safer place? MEGAN Yeah! DARIUS Sure. AMY All right. TIM Yeah. MEGAN Sure. TIM How�s this? DARIUS All right, that�s lovely. Could you scooch over to the left a little? TIM Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. DARIUS Cool. AMY Couldn�t you find anything better for a backdrop, Darius? DARIUS I mean, this is gorgeous, Amy, and you wanted safe. This is the best I could do at a minutes notice. AMY Yeah, but we should be standing out in a field with zebras running and lions roaring. I could have stayed home and photoshopped these. TIM Okay, well, why don�t I talk to Nozizwe and see if she can suggest some place better... AMY I really need wildlife in the background, Tim. I would even settle for a cow at this point. They have cows here, right? TIM Yeah, I think they have cows here. AMY Hey, uh-- you have a drone, right? DARIUS Yes, I do. AMY Yeah, let�s put it to work. TIM You can�t fly a drone here. AMY Says who? TIM Megan. AMY What a surprise. All right, I�ll have a chat with her. I�m sure we can sort something out. TIM Well, look, why don�t I talk to her and see if she can take us out on another safari and find some place safe I can get out of the vehicle. AMY Sounds good. TIM Okay. MEGAN Okay, you can get out, but I need you to stay close to the vehicle. TIM Are you sure? They don�t sound too happy. MEGAN Well, it�s daytime so they�ll stay in or close to the river and I�ll keep an eye on them and the clearing. Come on. AMY Yeah. So Tim, why don�t you run down a little closer to the bank so Darius can get a few good shots of you. MEGAN Oh, no. No, I�m sorry, we can�t do that. AMY Well, why not? You just said that they stay in the river, and if something happens, then Tim can just run back to the car. TIM Well, how fast can they run? MEGAN Well, they�ll outrun you. I mean, they don�t call them a river horse for nothing. TIM Yeah, I�d say it�s probably a pretty bad idea to go down there. MEGAN Yeah. TIM Yeah. AMY Did you bring your drone with you? DARIUS Um, yeah, but you know we can�t use them, right? AMY Yeah, I know they�re not permitted, but I mean, we�re in the middle of nowhere. Who�s gonna notice? MEGAN Um, I�ll notice. AMY But we�re all friends here, right. MEGAN Sure, yeah, it�s just as a Park Ranger it�s my job to ensure that all of the protocols are followed. AMY Everyone breaks the rules, Megan. Let�s loosen up, let�s have a bit of fun here. MEGAN Amy, if you�re going to be out here, I need you to understand one thing very clearly. Poachers use drones to find our rhinos and elephants, so they will not be tolerated under any circumstances. AMY Okay. MEGAN Thanks. TIM I knew I�d find you here. MEGAN Oh, hey. TIM Um, I just-- I wanted to say I�m sorry about yesterday. I appreciate you taking us out and I know how busy you are. MEGAN It�s no problem. I just don�t know how helpful it was. TIM It was great. MEGAN Is Amy settling in okay? TIM Yeah. Yeah, she�s fine. MEGAN Good. You know, you�re a lucky guy. Not many people have a friend who would travel halfway around just to visit them. TIM I guess so. MEGAN So you guys have been friends for a long time? TIM Well, outside of going to college together, we dated for a few months, that was like ten years ago. I haven�t seen her since or even really kept in touch. MEGAN So... Sorry, I don�t mean to sound intrusive, but why is she here? TIM Her dad just bought Colvin�s. MEGAN Oh. Wow. TIM Yeah... MEGAN Okay, what does that mean for you? TIM Amy is now running the theme park design division, so she�s effectively my new boss. MEGAN Wow. TIM So. What�s more stressful, being a ranger or doing research? MEGAN Oh, research. Hands down. TIM Really? MEGAN Yeah, I mean, it�s nothing I can control. I�m-- I still want to do some more research on the leopards and then there�s this pride of white lions that I was following, but they�ve been so elusive lately. TIM I�ve never seen a leopard. And white lions? MEGAN They�re really rare. There�s only about a dozen of them left in the wild. TIM What I wouldn�t give to see a white lion. And a leopard. MEGAN Well, one of our trackers just spotted a leopard and her cubs down by the river and Kamara and I were planning on going to see if we could spot her. If you and Amy wanted to come, you�re welcome. TIM Amy�s got video calls this morning, but I�d love to come. MEGAN Okay. TIM Meet you in the front in ten? MEGAN Yeah, I just have to put my stuff in my room. TIM Yeah, okay. MEGAN Do you hear those alarm calls? TIM Yeah, what is it? MEGAN It�s guinea fowl and baboons. They know that she�s here. TIM Where do you think she is? MEGAN I would say she�s about a hundred yards away in that brush up there. It�s where the trackers last spotted her. TIM Wait a second. I see her! MEGAN Really? TIM Yeah, yeah! Just to the right. To the right of the bush. MEGAN Okay. TIM Darius, you getting this? DARIUS Yes, man! I�m getting it. MEGAN Nice work. That�s her. You know what, there�s actually-- there�s a road up ahead, if we head over there we might be able to get a better view. DARIUS Yes! MEGAN Oh! TIM What was that? MEGAN A flat tire. TIM What do we do now? MEGAN Well, we�ll just have to call road service and if they can�t come, then we�ll grab a cab. TIM You don�t have those out here, do you? MEGAN No. No, we don�t even have service. All right, everybody out, let�s go. DARIUS Whoa, whoa, wait, hold on. You�re kidding, right? I mean, there�s a leopard out there. TIM Yeah! MEGAN Yeah, and your job is to make sure she doesn�t come over here. TIM How-- how do we-- MEGAN Here. TIM What am I supposed to do with this, defend myself? MEGAN If she does come over this way, just, whatever you do, don�t run. DARIUS Megan, you�re kidding, right? MEGAN Uh-uh, out. DARIUS She�s kidding, right? TIM No, she�s not kidding. Let�s go. Let�s do this. DARIUS We should not be out here. DARIUS Just-- just-- it�s a leopard-- TIM Stop holding onto me, man. KAMARA Okay, looks like we�re done. MEGAN Yeah. DARIUS Okay, go, go. MEGAN You okay? You look a little pale. TIM I�m good, I�m cool. Let�s go. MEGAN All right, you know, we�re just not completely out of the woods yet. TIM That�s a bad joke. MEGAN Thank you very much, yeah. KAMARA Uh, we�re going to head back to the lodge. MEGAN Okay. DARIUS Yeah. TIM Wow! MEGAN Doesn�t get much better than this. DAD Hey, Ames. It�s good to hear from you. Have you settled in? AMY I�m doing okay, daddy. Just a few little issues. DAD Oh, what�s up? AMY I�m not getting to spend as much time with Tim as I�d hoped. DAD Why? What�s the problem? AMY He seems more interested in spending time with a certain ranger over here. DAD Well, don�t let that get in your way. I mean, you�ve been friends for years. That should count for something. AMY Yeah, I�m working on it. DAD He�s your best asset going forward, so you better lock him down before one of our competitors comes in and snaps him up. AMY Yeah, I know. Working on it. DAD And getting that Chipperfield contract right now is a priority. You know it�s not going to happen without Tim. AMY Yeah, I know. All right, we�ll talk again soon. I�ll check in. All right. MEGAN Do you want to get out? TIM There�s no leopards, is there? MEGAN I mean, there might be, but it�s one of our walking safari locations. Don�t worry, you�re safe with me. Come on. TIM Okay. Wow. MEGAN Pretty cool, huh? TIM You know, I admire what you do. You give your all for this. Where do you find any time for personal life? MEGAN This is my personal life. TIM But do you miss going out with friends? Hanging out, having fun? Being spontaneous? MEGAN I�m sorry, is changing a tire beside a leopard not spontaneous enough for you? TIM That�s a good point. MEGAN Thank you. TIM Look at them, wow. They�re beautiful. MEGAN Yeah, they are. TIM I haven�t seen many two-legged eligible bachelors around here. MEGAN You never know. I might find one hiding up a tree. TIM Seriously, though. MEGAN I dated someone for three years in college. We got engaged and when we graduated, we planned on travelling the world, doing our research, starting a family. TIM And then? MEGAN Uh. Then he changed his mind. Yeah, we spend some time apart to figure some things out. I came out here, and while I was gone he met someone else, so it ended. I spent a little too much over it and then decided I should just get on with my life. TIM That was it for love? MEGAN Pretty much. I mean, I�ve dated a bit. I just-- I don�t know, I don�t see the point in pursuing something if it�s going to go anywhere. TIM Well, what if you unexpectedly met someone and fell in love? MEGAN The timing would have to be right. What about you? TIM I haven�t-- no, I�m-- I have nobody special in my life either. I dated someone on and off for a couple years, but work got in the way and we drifted apart. We split up about a year ago. MEGAN So not a relationship guy? TIM No, actually quite the opposite. I�d like to find love, it�s just work seems to always get in the way. MEGAN Yeah, I get that. Sometimes work just has to come first. TIM Yeah, or maybe we just work so much because we haven�t found the right person yet. MEGAN Yeah, maybe. AMY Look at all these magnificent animals. DARIUS Yeah. AMY Such a missed opportunity to use that drone, don�t you think? DARIUS I guess so. AMY You know, I don�t understand why Megan is being such a stickler for rules. I�m sure lots of people send their drones up and no one really cares. You just have to be careful. DARIUS Look, Amy, I�m just here to do my job. AMY Oh yes, of course. Of course, yeah. Can I? DARIUS Oh, look. AMY Oh, these are amazing, Darius. DARIUS Yeah? AMY Hey, can you send them to me? DARIUS Of course. AMY Yeah, I�ll make sure they get into the hands of the Ceo. As a matter of fact, I can just introduce you when we get back. DARIUS No way! AMY Yeah, of course. DARIUS That would be great, Amy. Thank you! AMY I mean, you�re part of the family-- well, company. You know what I mean. DARIUS I get you. AMY Yeah. DARIUS Honestly, I must say, that�s really good to hear. I wasn�t sure what was going to happen after the sale. AMY Don�t worry. I got your back. DARIUS Thank you. AMY Mm-hmm. Ugh, such a shame we can�t use the drone. Can you imagine how impressed head office would be if we did? Just picture elephants, giraffe, lions, cheetahs, leopards all roaming across the savannah. But I guess it is what it is. All right, see you later. MEGAN Oh great, not working again. TIM What happened? Is that your only camera? MEGAN I know it�s a dinosaur, but it�s served me well. TIM Well, you can use my camera. It�s brand new, the latest in technology. I know how much you love that. MEGAN Here, let me get a picture of you with the cheetah. Okay. TIM Okay. MEGAN What do you think? TIM It�s great. MEGAN We should probably get back before it gets dark. TIM I�m sure it gets pretty scary out here at night. MEGAN Yeah, but it�s really beautiful with the stars. TIM Why didn�t you get scared? MEGAN Part of the job. We should head back for dinner. TIM Yeah. Wow. That was amazing. MEGAN I would like to make a toast to Mom Nozi for being the reason that we are all here, and to the beautiful friendships we�ve made this week. But most importantly, to my friend, Kamara, because tonight, Mom Nozi has officially certified you as a Park Ranger. Congratulations. TIM Congrats! Cheers. KAMARA Oh! Oh, wow. MEGAN You deserve it, Kamara. KAMARA Thank you! TIM I would also like to make a toast. I came here to get inspiration for my work. I got so much more than that. Thanks, Megan. Thanks for giving us a safari experience that we will never forget. DARIUS indeed! TIM Cheers, Megan. KAMARA To Megan! MEGAN Cheers. TIM Cheers. MEGAN No, it was crazy. AMY Well, it sounds like you guy had a pretty awesome day. MEGAN We did. Maybe next time you can come with us. AMY Yeah, maybe I will. TIM Who wants a night cap? AMY Uh, not for me. MEGAN You know what, I�ll have one. Whatever you�re having. TIM Okay. AMY He sure is a charmer, isn�t he? MEGAN Sorry? AMY Oh, look at that smile. Come on, don�t tell me you haven�t noticed. He�s having fun here, Megan. And with you. MEGAN It�s part of the job to make sure everyone has the best safari experience. AMY Yeah. You know we dated, right? MEGAN Yeah. Yeah, he mentioned. AMY Sometimes still wonder what would have happened if we�d stuck it out. TIM All right, here we are. AMY All right, well I am heading out. We have a big day tomorrow. All work, no distractions. Because you�re all mine for the next few days. MEGAN No cheetahs, I promise. We�re just going to a hyena den full of hyena pups. TIM Hyena pups? AMY Yeah. See you at 7 for breakfast? TIM I�ll be there, it doesn�t sound as fun as hyena pups though. AMY Goodnight, Megan. MEGAN Goodnight, Amy. Good luck with your work. AMY Yeah, thank you. TIM Yeah, I can�t believe that day that we had. MEGAN I know. TIM Honestly. MEGAN Cheers to that. TIM Cheers. Hyena pups... MEGAN So cute. AMY I looked at your design yesterday and I thought it would be helpful if you could maybe lay out a small prototype or something? TIM You know what, I had one but I pressed pause on it. I think I�m going to be changing it up quite a bit. AMY How come? TIM It�s just I have to find a creative way to incorporate all the things I�ve seen and experienced here. AMY All right, sure. Can I ask you a personal question? TIM Yeah, sure. AMY I�ve been thinking a lot about our college days. Remember when we broke up, we agreed to remain friends, and we were for a while. Do you think we�ll ever get that back? TIM Well, it was ten years ago. I think we�ve changed a lot since then. AMY We�re still the same people, aren�t we? TIM I think most people change over time. We have new experiences, we mature, we meet different people. AMY We make new friends that replace the old ones? TIM I don�t think meeting new friends means you need to replace the old ones. AMY I see the way you are with Megan. And I used to be that friend that you laughed with and had fun with and I guess I�m just a little envious of that. TIM Envious? AMY I guess I just feel a little slighted. TIM I�m sorry, that wasn�t my intention. AMY I mean, I guess when we bought Colvin Designs, I assumed that we could just rekindle our old friendship and work together to build my new division. TIM You�re now my new boss. It�s impossible for things to stay the same. AMY Yeah, all right. KAMARA How�s everything going with Tim? MEGAN Good. KAMARA Good? That�s it? MEGAN Yeah, I�m having fun. KAMARA Wow, Megan Henry finally admitting to having fun. Now, that�s progress. Wait, is that a spark of love that I sense in the air? MEGAN Okay, don�t take it too far. In two weeks, he�s gonna be home and I�m going to be back to my statistics, chasing lions and finishing my defence. KAMARA Yup, okay. And then Tim will be back in New York with Amy. Don�t you just find it strange that she�s here in the first place? MEGAN Yeah, I do, but she�s his new boss. KAMARA Where did that came from? MEGAN Looks like the lodge. NOZIZWE Hey. MEGAN Hey, Kamara and I just spotted a drone flying near the hyena den. It looked like it was launched from here. NOZIZWE Yes, several other rangers saw it too and called it in. MEGAN Well, any idea who was flying it? NOZIZWE No, but one of the reports said it was a guest of yours. Looked like the same one they saw last week. It had a yellow stripe. MEGAN No, that�s impossible. I mean, the only person I know of that has a drone is Tim, and there�s no way he would be flying it. Is it possible that it was another guest? NOZIZWE Tim�s drone is the only one I have registered here. MEGAN It doesn�t make any sense. NOZIZWE No, it doesn�t, but you know how unbending the anti-poaching team is about the use of drones. They may ask for a temporary suspension of your license. MEGAN Is there anything I can do to resolve this? I only have two more weeks. NOZIZWE You�ll have to ask Tim to turn in his drone immediately. MEGAN Okay. Do you know where he is? NOZIZWE I saw him outside a little while ago in the giraffe garden with Amy. MEGAN Okay, thank you. MEGAN Hey, can I talk to you for a minute? TIM Yeah, sure. MEGAN Privately, if that�s okay? TIM No problem. MEGAN Do you know anything about a drone flying over the park about a mile or so from here? TIM No. No, I�ve been working with Amy all day. Why, what�s up? Is something wrong? MEGAN Yeah, some complaints were registered. My name was mentioned. Look, Tim, I�m going to have to take your drone. TIM What? MEGAN I need to confiscate it. TIM You�re not suggesting I was the one that was flying it? MEGAN No, I�m not accusing you of anything. TIM Well, it sounds like you are. MEGAN Tim, I need you to understand I have a lot on the line here. This is the second drone incident in two weeks. If this is linked to me in any way, I could lose my ranger�s license. Do you know what that would mean? TIM Well, I can-- MEGAN It would mean that I would have to shut down all of my research. TIM Well, I can tell you that your name won�t be linked to it because it wasn�t my drone. MEGAN Well, is there any way that somebody else could have gotten their hands on it? TIM No, Darius is the one that has it and there�s no way he would have flown it. MEGAN Well, I�m gonna need you to check because you�re the only guests that we know of that have one. TIM I don�t know what to say, I�ll make sure we hand the drone in later today. MEGAN Thank you. She�ll give it back to you when you�re leaving. TIM Okay. TIM Hey, man. DARIUS Hi. TIM I just spoke to Megan. DARIUS Oh, yeah. She came to see me, she seemed pretty upset. TIM Yeah, where�s the drone? DARIUS It�s in my room. TIM You didn�t lend it to anyone, did you? DARIUS No, I wouldn�t do that. TIM We need to hand it in to Mom Nozi right away. DARIUS Okay. I�ll do that now. TIM Okay, thanks. Catch you in a bit. CONCIERGE Yes NOZIZWE Thanks. MEGAN Hey. RANGER Hello, how are you? NOZIZWE Hey. MEGAN Hey, any news on the drone yet? NOZIZWE Nothing yet, but I�m working on it. MEGAN Mom Nozi, I hope you know I would never allow one of my guests to fly a drone here. NOZIZWE Oh, Megan, I know that. You�d be the first person to shut them down. MEGAN Is this going to reflect poorly on you? Or the reserve? NOZIZWE Don�t worry about us. It will all get sorted out. MEGAN Thank you for everything you�ve done to help me. NOZIZWE I�m shutting down for the night. Can I offer you a nice cold glass of white wine? MEGAN I would love one. Yeah. NOZIZWE Thank you. MEGAN You�re the best, thank you (indistinct). RANGER Thank you so much MEGAN Cheers. Have a good sleep. NOZIZWE I will. TIM Megan, hey. Hi. MEGAN Hey. TIM Do you have a second? MEGAN Sure. TIM Today was a strange day. MEGAN Yes, it was. TIM I hope that you know I had nothing to do with the drone. I would never do anything to ruin your reputation or jeopardize what you�ve worked so hard to accomplish here. MEGAN I know, I just panicked when I thought there was a chance that I could lose my rangers license and not be able to complete my research. TIM Well, that�s understandable. MEGAN You know, when I first came here. I was so proud of myself. I would just hate to leave feeling ashamed. TIM Why would you feel shamed? You�re smart, strong. Hands down, you�re the bravest person I�ve ever known. MEGAN I�m not that brave, believe me. TIM No, I�m serious. There�s not one thing that you�ve been afraid of out there. MEGAN Mmm. Lots of things scare me, believe me. TIM Okay, like what? MEGAN Like failure. Not finishing what I came here to do. TIM Haven�t you achieved everything you came here for? MEGAN No, I still want to do more research on the white lions. That was my biggest goal. TIM And if for some reason you can�t find them, then what? MEGAN Hmm, then I will still submit my thesis, and hopefully get my Phd. TIM Of course you�re gonna get your Phd. MEGAN You know what? TIM What? MEGAN I can�t drink wine without a snack. TIM I can�t drink beer without a snack. MEGAN Do you think we should order in? TIM Yes! MEGAN Maybe pizza? TIM Yeah, I�d love pizza. Wait a second, is this one of those cab jokes again? MEGAN Maybe. TIM Oh, ha-ha. Got me again. Well, now I�m hungry. MEGAN Follow me. I have an idea. MEGAN Okay, yeah. I think we have everything we need. TIM For what? MEGAN For malva pudding. Kamara made it yesterday and there�s tons of leftover ingredients. TIM Never had it. MEGAN You�ve never had malva pudding? Well, young man, it was apparently Nelson Mandela�s favourite desert. TIM Hmm. So let me get this straight, park ranger, research scientist, photographer, and chef? What�s next? MEGAN For the record, I�m not a chef. I don�t remember the last time I cooked. TIM I don�t know about that, malva pudding sounds pretty fancy. What�s the recipe? MEGAN I don�t have one of those, but I have watched Kamara make it a couple of times. And I�m a decent student, so. May I? TIM Yes, well it looks good. MEGAN Okay. So, our moment of truth. TIM I like this. TIM Okay, don�t mind if I do. MEGAN What do you think? TIM Malva pudding is officially my new favourite desert. MEGAN Yes! TIM Wow. MEGAN Maybe I should add chef to my resume. I don�t know if it�s actually going to help me with my defence. TIM Don�t underestimate yourself. I�ve seen people be swayed by a delicious desert. MEGAN Speak for yourself. Hey, I�m going to head into the village tomorrow with Kamara. Do you want to come? TIM Yeah, I�d love to take a break. MEGAN Uh, Darius is coming too. If you wanted, you can invite Amy. TIM I think she has a day at the spa tomorrow. MEGAN Okay. KAMARA Hi! MEGAN Hi! KAMARA And this is my Mum and my sister, Annika. MOM Hi! TIM Nice to meet you. KAMARA So my mum has a store in Johannesburg. She comes here once a week. All the profits from here go back to the village to supply clean water. TIM Oh. that�s great. I love that, that�s so nice. MOM Yes, thanks. TIM These are beautiful. What do you think? You like this? This my colour? MEGAN You know what, I think you�re more of an �autumn.� TIM Let me see. MEGAN Oh, yes. TIM Yeah? MEGAN It�s definitely your colour. It�s so you. TIM Thank you very much. VENDOR Thanks. TIM Goodbye. MEGAN These are nice. TIM Yeah, my mom�s gonna love them. She, uh-- MOM Goodbye! TIM She makes clothes for all her grandchildren. MEGAN Oh. TIM Do you have a big family? MEGAN No actually, It�s just me and my mom. My parents spilt up when I was two. So she raised me on her own. TIM Really? MEGAN Yeah. TIM Was that difficult? MEGAN I mean, we didn�t have a ton financially but she made up for it with more love than any kid could ever ask for, even though she was working two jobs to make ends meet. TIM You sound a lot like your mom. MEGAN She was really young when she had me, so she had to give up a lot to raise me, but she always made sure that I had the best, went to the best schools. TIM Is that why you�re so determined? MEGAN Yeah, I want her to be proud of who I�ve become. TIM I�m sure she is. How could she not be. Where is she now? MEGAN She actually has an apartment by mine at the university. After I got my undergrad, she went to college and got a degree in nursing. TIM That�s incredible. MEGAN Yeah. Yeah, she even found new love. It�s about time she had some real happiness in her life. It�s why I would never want to do anything to disappoint her. TIM Hold on, do I hear a tiny bit of you being a perfectionist creep back in? Is that what I hear here? MEGAN No! Me? That is so yesterday. TIM I, uh-- I got you a little something. MEGAN Really? TIM Yeah. MEGAN I got you something. TIM Really? All right., um-- MEGAN On three? TIM On three. MEGAN One, two, three! No! TIM What! MEGAN The same one? Which hand would you like yours on? TIM Put it on this one here. MEGAN Okay. TIM Thank you. There you go. MEGAN Thank you. I love it. TIM I love mine. DARIUS Oh man, I got some really awesome footage today. I�m going to ahead and start download this, yeah? KAMARA Do you want some company? DARIUS I�d love some company. Come on. MEGAN Well, looks like we�ve been ditched. AMY Hey. MEGAN Hey. AMY Hope you guys had a good day. TIM Yeah, it was great. MEGAN Yeah. AMY Oh, I love your bracelet. MEGAN Oh, thank you. Yeah, um, Tim actually got it for me today. TIM And Megan actually got me the same one. MEGAN Yeah. AMY What are the chances? MEGAN You know what, I should get this stuff back to my room, but we�re still on for the drive tomorrow? TIM Yes we are. MEGAN Okay, bye. AMY Bye. I�m glad you�re back. It can get kinda boring around here. TIM Yeah, I guess so. AMY Yeah. Hey, so I would love to talk with you about something important. TIM Okay. AMY Yeah, so why don�t we grab dinner, maybe a glass of champagne. We might have something big to celebrate. TIM Yeah, I�m a little tired, could we just grab a coffee? AMY Yeah, coffee, good. Coffee it is. TIM Right now? AMY Yeah. Yeah, sure. TIM Okay. MEGAN Did you get everything downloaded? What�s wrong? KAMARA Darius needs to tell you something. MEGAN Okay. DARIUS Megan, I feel really ashamed of myself and I�m so sorry. MEGAN Sorry about what? DARIUS I�m the one who flew the drone. MEGAN What? I don�t understand. DARIUS I made a really stupid mistake. The thing is, I was chatting with Amy and she said she�d really like some aerial shots and seeing that she�s now my new boss, I figured I�d at least try to get her a few. Look, I really hope I didn�t harm your reputation. I�ll tell Mom Nozi right away. MEGAN No, Darius, it�s okay. I appreciate your honesty more than anything. I just don�t really understand why Amy would have asked you to do that. DARIUS She didn�t exactly ask me. She just said she�d like some shots. And so I took it upon myself to get them. In retrospect, it was a really stupid idea. MEGAN Have you told Tim? DARIUS No. Please don�t say anything to Tim or Amy. MEGAN I won�t, but I do think you should tell him yourself. I really think he�ll understand. AMY How would you feel about taking on more responsibility with the company? TIM What do you mean? AMY I need a business partner and you�re the best in the industry. And Daddy and I would just love to have you on the team. TIM Well, thank you. But what would that entail? AMY Um, overseeing all the new projects. A step up the ladder. A big raise. TIM Does that mean I�ll be on the road more or stationed at head office? AMY Oh no, you�d be working more directly with me. And of course, a vice president position down the road if it all works out. TIM What about my team at Colvin Designs? AMY Oh no, I already have my own people. MEGAN I�m so sorry, I got a call saying they were here. TIM Well, I could think of worse places to be. MEGAN I think I might come out again tomorrow afternoon to see if I can spot them, If you want to come? TIM Count me in. I forgot to tell you, I have to do a quick trip to Johannesburg tomorrow to pick up some equipment. MEGAN Oh, okay. Oh, do you think you could pick up a thumb drive for me? TIM Yeah, of course, but why don�t you come with me? We could leave early, get back just after lunch. MEGAN Yeah. Okay, yeah. Yeah, that would be fun. Oh my gosh... Finally. Aren�t they beautiful. TIM Yeah, they�re just right here. How did we miss them? MEGAN I think this might be the best day of my life. TIM Hi, Tim Erickson. There was a delivery that was made for me? CONCIERGE Yes, Mr. Erickson. Would you like us to bring the packages to your vehicle right now? TIM Yeah, that�d be great, please. CONCIERGE No problem. TIM Thank you. You hungry? I made a reservation at Aduna here. MEGAN I�m hungry. MEGAN Thank you so much. TIM Thank you. MEGAN Oh, I keep forgetting to ask you about your design. Have you done more work on it? TIM I�m getting a lot of great ideas, which is why I came here. MEGAN Good, guess you must be getting down to the wire. TIM One week left. It�s going to be kind of a jolt to leave here and not see you every day. MEGAN Mmm, you never know. It might be a refreshing change of pace. TIM No. No, I�m going miss this place. And I�m going to miss you. MEGAN I�m gonna miss you too. It�s been really nice having you here. TIM What if when we leave here I come visit you? And we can go out on a real date. MEGAN Tim. I don�t want to get my heart broken again. And once you leave, I just don�t see how we could make something work. TIM How will we know if we don�t try? MEGAN Long distance relationships are hard. Trust me. Can we just try to enjoy the time we have left? TIM We got a flight to catch. Why don�t we go back and try to find those white lions? MEGAN Yeah. Okay. MEGAN I cannot tell you how happy I am you�re getting to see them again. TIM This is so special. MEGAN Yeah. TIM I can�t believe I get to experience this with you. MEGAN Me too. TIM Oh no, don�t go, don�t go. MEGAN Okay, I think it�s about that time. TIM What time? MEGAN Time for a sundowner. TIM A sundowner? MEGAN Have you never had one? TIM No... MEGAN Okay, well it�s tradition her and you have to have at least one to have a true South African safari. TIM Okay. Let�s go. TIM This is unbelievable. I don�t want it to end. MEGAN Yeah, it�s pretty magical, isn�t it? Do you think you�re going to be spending a lot of time in New York when you get back? TIM More than I planned. Amy offered me partnership. MEGAN Wow. That�s a generous offer. TIM It�s a great opportunity, but I�ll be doing a lot less design work and more administration to help build out the company. MEGAN Do you think that�ll make you happy? TIM I don�t know. MEGAN So where does that leave you and Amy? TIM Well, I guess we�ll be working out of head office a lot more. MEGAN Do you think that�s gonna be easy to do? With your history. TIM Yeah, I think so. The boundaries are clear. The past is the past. MEGAN Do you think it�ll be easy for her? TIM I don�t see why not. Why would you ask? MEGAN Just a feeling. TIM Yeah, that sundowner last night was really incredible. DARIUS Um, hey, Tim? TIM Yeah? DARIUS Look, man, I�m just gonna cut to the chase. There�s something I need to tell you. TIM Okay. DARIUS It�s about the drone. I�m the one who flew it. TIM What? DARIUS I�m really sorry, man. TIM Uh, why didn�t you admit it? DARIUS Well, I didn�t want to lose my job. TIM Why would you ever worry about that? Wait a second, did Amy put you up to this? DARIUS No, I�m not blaming Amy for anything. She didn�t ask me. She just said she�d like some footage and so I foolishly went ahead and did it... on my own. MEGAN Tim, Darius has taken full responsibility for this. He told us the truth and he�s told Mom Nozi the truth. KAMARA No, no, wait. But what about Amy? She�s responsible for all of this. DARIUS No, Kamara, I one hundred percent take responsibility for this, okay? TIM I�m gonna straighten this out with Amy. If that�s okay. DARIUS What if she fires me? TIM You�ll always have a job with me, no matter where I am. DARIUS Thanks. TIM Thanks for telling me. TIM Hey. AMY Oh, best view I ever had. Hey, maybe we can do a-- like, a satellite office over here. What do you think? We could work here during the winter. TIM We need to talk. I just spoke to Darius and he told me what happened. AMY Oh my gosh, did something happen? TIM Come on, Amy, don�t play this game. You know what�s going on. AMY I�m sorry, I honestly don�t. TIM The drone? AMY Yeah? TIM Yeah? AMY Oh, I�m sorry, you don�t think I had something to do with that, do you? TIM You didn�t tell Darius you needed some aerial shots? AMY I told everybody. I told you, Megan, Darius, everyone. Guess he misinterpreted what I said. TIM Did you ever consider what this could have done to Megan? She could have lost her license and missed out on the opportunity to finish her research. AMY I wouldn�t worry about her too much. She can take care of herself. TIM Oh, come on, Amy. You know what? I�m done with this. I�m done with the way you treat people and pretend like you�re innocent when you know full well you�ve done something wrong. AMY The only reason I came here was because of our friendship. Because I wanted to offer you an opportunity to build your career. TIM I don�t need you to bolster my career. And honestly, I don�t know if I could ever work with you again. Not after this. TIM Good morning. MEGAN Hey. TIM Hey. Well, I talked with Amy last night. MEGAN Yeah? TIM And it didn�t go too well. I quit my job. MEGAN Tim, are you sure that�s what you want to do? TIM Yeah, it�s the right move. MEGAN I mean, what about your design? You�ve worked so hard on it. TIM I know. MEGAN So what are you going to do? TIM I have to go back tomorrow. Amy left this morning, but I need to get back and talk to my old boss, Jim, at Colvin Designs and see if we can figure something out. MEGAN I�m really sorry this happened. I know how important this job was to you. TIM It was, but you know, I�m glad it happened. It made me remember the type of person Amy was before I started to work with her. MEGAN Well, I�m sure something good will come from this. I mean, you�re smart, you�re talented, you�re creative. TIM Thank you for believing in me. MEGAN Of course I believe in you. You�re an amazing, person. And you even taught me that I don�t need to take everything so seriously all the time. That�s not an easy task. TIM Can I see you again before I go? Maybe do dinner tonight. MEGAN Yeah. I would like that. TIM These past two weeks, they�ve gone by so fast. MEGAN Yeah, they have. TIM This has been one of the most phenomenal experiences of my life. MEGAN For me too. TIM We don�t have to say good-bye. This doesn�t have to be the end. MEGAN Tim, I just don�t see how a future for us could work. TIM I know all the odds are against us. I don�t want this to be over. MEGAN Me neither, but you have a life to get back to and you have to figure out what you�re going to do and I don�t want to be the person that stands in the way of that. TIM I don�t want to be the person that gets in the way of you either. You�ve worked your entire life for what you have. MEGAN Exactly. Our lives, they�re just too different. TIM But they�re not. MEGAN We can�t both live our dreams if we�re together. TIM What if we can? MEGAN If there was a way to make this work, I would want to. But I just don�t see how it�s possible. TIM Will I see you tomorrow before I leave? MEGAN I don�t know if I can say good-bye to you. TIM Then don�t. MEGAN I�m sorry. NOZIZWE Let�s see if we can get this right now. Oh, it�s been so great having you here. TIM Thank you for everything. NOZIZWE Travel safe. TIM Yes. NOZIZWE Darius, (indistinct) TIM Bye. MEGAN Hey. KAMARA I was surprised you didn�t come to say good-bye to Tim this morning. MEGAN I couldn�t do it. Whatever we had, it�s over. I just need to focus on getting back to work. KAMARA Is it really over though? MEGAN It has to be. KAMARA No, it doesn�t, Megan. You can always make a different choice. I mean, Darius and I did. MEGAN And I�m really happy for you. What�s your plan? KAMARA Well, Darius is thinking of moving back to South Africa. There�s still a lot to figure out, but we�re gonna work on it together. You and Tim can do that too. MEGAN No, we�re just on really different paths. And I have to accept that. KAMARA Do you love him? MEGAN I don�t know. I don�t know, but he�s the first person I�ve ever considered changing my life for. And that scares me. NOZIZWE Hey, Megan. MEGAN Hey. NOZIZWE Tim left this here for you this morning. He didn�t want to leave you behind, you know. MEGAN I didn�t want to see him go. NOZIZWE I hope you can find a way back to each other. Love doesn�t come along very often. MEGAN I know. NOZIZWE Follow your heart. It will take you where you need to be. And this is confirmation that the complaint against you has been withdrawn. Your ranger�s license is still in good standing. MEGAN That�s a relief. NOZIZWE I�m so sorry, this shouldn�t have happened in the first place. MEGAN No, it�s okay. I mean, there�s a lesson to be learned in everything, right? This taught me not to jump to conclusions, and to trust people like you who have my back. NOZIZWE Always. TIM Thanks for all the memories. I left the footage from the leopard and the white lion sightings. I hope it�ll help you dazzle your thesis defence. And if you see the white lions again, I�d love to see the pictures. MEGAN Okay. MEGAN I love you so much. KAMARA I love you. MEGAN I love you too. NOZIZWE Okay, my turn. We�re all going to miss you. MEGAN Thank you both so much for everything. I�ll be back, I promise. NOZIZWE You better. MEGAN Okay. Thanks, Josh. MEGAN Yeah. MEGAN I�ll be right there. MEGAN Kamara! Oh my gosh! What are you doing here? KAMARA Oh, I�m visiting Darius for a couple of weeks and I wanted to come and surprise you. MEGAN Well, this is an amazing surprise. KAMARA Oh, do you have a couple of hours to spare? MEGAN Yeah, why? KAMARA Well, Darius is working on a short film project and he asked me to come and see it. Do you wanna tag along? MEGAN Yes, I would love to. I just have to grab my purse. Come on. KAMARA Okay. MEGAN I�ll show you my office. KAMARA Yeah. MEGAN I can�t believe you�re here! MEGAN Uh, Kamara, are you sure we�re in the right place? KAMARA Positive. Let me grab Darius. MEGAN Okay. TIM I�m happy you made it. MEGAN Tim? TIM I missed you, Megan. MEGAN Yeah, I�ve missed you too. TIM You know there hasn�t been a second in the day that you�re weren�t on my mind. Can I show you something? MEGAN Okay... TIM Remember how you said you wanted something spectacular to impress the committee for your thesis presentation? MEGAN Yeah... TIM Well... MEGAN Um, yeah, I mean, it�s a little low key, but-- TIM Wait, one minute. MEGAN Wow. It�s beautiful. It�s like we�re back there. TIM The more I thought about what I wanted the attraction to be, the more I realized it needed to feel real. MEGAN It does. TIM Thanks to you. You�re the one that inspired all of this. MEGAN It�s perfect. I love it. Oh, what happened with your job? TIM I talked to my old boss, Jim. This project had been in development long before Amy came around. I was the one that originally thought of this, so Jim and I, we ran with it. And we started our own company and hired all the employees that were let go of by Amy. MEGAN That�s incredible. I�m really happy for you. TIM And the best part is that Chipperfield, the company that I originally pitched my concept to, they bought it. And they gave us a contract to create more. MEGAN All your hard work paid off. TIM I want this company to become our dream. MEGAN What do you mean? TIM They want more immersive experiences from exotic locations in the wilderness. I can work anywhere. I can travel with you and while you�re doing your research, I can do my designs from wherever we are in the world. MEGAN Are you sure that�s something you would want? TIM I have never been more sure about anything. The time I spent with you in South Africa was the happiest time of my life. MEGAN Mine too. I was maybe just a little miserable after you left. TIM I�ll go anywhere and do anything for you, Megan. I love you with all of my heart. Please say you�ll take this chance with me and make this dream our reality. MEGAN You know, no one�s ever been willing to make their dreams fit with mine. I�ll do whatever it takes to make this work. I love you too. TIM I told Darius I didn�t want fireworks. MEGAN Hey, you can never go wrong with fireworks. MEGAN And this is why we must make every effort to save these incredible creatures. I�d like to dedicate my thesis defence. today to my mom. MEGAN Hey. TIM Hey. MEGAN Hey. TIM Congratulations, Dr. Henry. I�m proud of you. MEGAN Thank you.
