Phil Collins
[First lines; Phil Collins music playing a song Two Worlds] [singing]

Put your faith in what you most believe in / Two worlds, one family / Trust your heart / Let fate decide / To guide these lives we see...| A paradise untouched by man / Within this world blessed with love / A simple life, they live in peace...| Softly tread the sand below your feet now / Two worlds, one family / Trust your heart / Let fate decide / To guide these lives we see...| Beneath the shelter of the trees / Only love can enter here / A simple life, they live in peace...| Raise your head up / Lift high the load / Take strength from those that need you / Build high the walls / Build strong the beams / A new life is waiting / But danger's no stranger here...| No words describe a mother's tears / No words can heal a broken heart / A dream is gone, but where there's hope...| Somewhere something is calling for you / Two worlds, one family / Trust your heart / Let fate decide / To guide these lives we see... [song fades]
[Kala arrives at the level where the house is at and goes inside. The house is a mess as if someone or something has torn the entire place apart. Suddenly, she spots something. Two bodies are near a table, as well as bloody paw-prints on the floor. She swiftly backs off] [Kala looks down and spots a picture frame. Taking a look, he sees it is of two adult couples and a baby. He presumes that the bodies belong to the couple. But where's the baby? Just then, she hears a baby noise from a crib nearby. She walks towards it and looks in. A blue blanket is inside, covering something. Curiously, Kala uncovers the blanket. Underneath is a baby boy who is crying. He stops as he sees the gorilla looking at him, and coos curiously]
[Kala takes a closer look at the baby. Suddenly, the boy sneezes on her, causing her to back off. Then she gets confused as the baby squeaks happily at her, obviously wanting to be held. She picks him up by the leg and sniffs the baby's diaper and backs off in disgust] [The baby now looks at Kala, making bubbles with his mouth. Deciding to be silly for a bit, Kala chuckles and bursts the bubbles, making the baby giggle. Then the baby puts his tiny hands on her face, making her grin. This is the first time something other than a baby gorilla has touched her face. She places a hand on his hand. She grins once more as the baby touches her hands, cooing. Kala holds the child warmly in her arm, as the baby yawns and cuddles to her]
[Just before she can leave, Kala sniffs something familiar and looks up. Sure enough, it's Sabor. She has returned to see if she has missed anything. And sure enough, she sees the baby and plans to murder him] [The mother gorilla gets out of the road, holding the baby as Sabor pounces down to attack. She does her best to keep the baby from being harmed by her. Sabor tackles her, which results in the roof breaking. The three fall right on the tent. Kala tries to escape while Sabor, willing the baby, keeps a hold on her. She tries to slash her, only to get the tent instead] [Soon Sabor pins Kala to the wood while she holds her enemy by her neck. With a smirk, Sabor slashes her face, forcing her to let the baby go, causing him to fall to the net below. Kala gasps as Sabor sees him and goes after him. She sees Sabor and sees the baby boy rolling down on the net playfully. The boy doesn't know of the danger she is in as Sabor jumps into the net going after him] [Kala gets up and looks for the baby while he keeps rolling with Sabor getting closer. She looks down and sees the baby as he chuckles at her. Kala looks terrified as she sees Sabor. Luckily, she is having problems due to the net. Kala reaches down for the baby while Sabor tries to get him before she does so. The gorilla can't reach him. She gasps as the leopard jumps towards the baby, but he only ends up missing, making the baby bounce on the net. Kala catches for the baby, but only grabs his diaper, yet she gets him how to speak. Frantically, she tries to get him through the hole. As Sabor gets up, the net is cut loose, almost making her fall to her doom]
[Kala now sees the diaper slipping between two boards going towards the edge. She runs and grabs the baby in the nick of time, making him relieved to see the baby alright. But then, she turns around and sees Sabor breaking through. It seems like the two are trapped] [That is, until Kala sees a boat. Once Sabor gets through, she growls as she runs after the gorilla, who runs to the boat. Kala jumps in, causing it to slide to the ground below. The frustrated Sabor looks down and plans to get them, only to get carried up by her leg past the rope to the boat. For a while, it seems that the gorilla and the child won't make it, but soon the boat stops closer to the ground. Kala grins as she gets out of it. She looks up to see Sabor roaring, as she is all tangled up by the ropes. She sees this as a chance to escape and return to the clan with a new visitor. The song begins briefly once more]

Phil Collins
[singing]

Every moment now, the bond grows stronger. Two worlds, one family. Trust your heart, let fate decide. To guide these lives we see!

Mama, look! Look over there!

Ape Voice
[Apes gather round Kala]

Kala! She's back!
Terk's Mother: Are you all right, dear?

I'm fine. No, really, honestly. It's just that I got a little bit... sidetracked.

Well, isn't that, uh-- Well, so-- Well, it's just so, so-- That's freaky-lookin', okay? That's what it is.
Terk's Mother: Terkina!

Well, it is! I mean, what the heck is it anyway?

He's a baby.

Whoa! Ow! I can't--So where's his mama?

Well, I'm going to be his mother now.

You know he's not so bad once you get used to him. Kala's gonna be it's mother now.

[Kala shows the baby to Kerchak]

Kerchak, I saved him from Sabor.

Kala, it won't replace the one we lost.

I know that. But... he needs me.

But, it-it-it-- Kala, look at it! It´s not our kind! [sighs] No. You have to take it back.

Take him back? But he'll die!

If the jungle wants him --

I want him!

Kala, I cannot let you put our family in danger.

Does he look dangerous to you?

[Kerchak roars; he and Kala glare at each other]

Hmm. Was it alone?

Yes. Sabor killed his family.

Are you sure?

Yes. There are no others.

[sighs]

Then you may keep him.

Kerchak, I know he'll be a good son.

I said he could stay. That doesn't make him my son.

[Kerchak leaves]

We will rest here for the night.

So, um, whatcha gonna call it?

I'm gonna call him... Tarzan.

Tarzan? Okay. He's your baby.
Terk's Mother: All right, little lady, come on. It's way past your nest time.

Oh, Mom, five more minutes?
Terk's Mother: No.

Two more minutes?
Terk's Mother: No.

One more "minutes"?

Oh, oh, no, shh, shh, don't cry, come on, come on, I'm here. [singing] Come stop your crying; it'll be all right. Come take my hand, hold it tight. I will protect you from all around you; I will be here; don't you cry.

Phil Collins
[Phil Collins music playing a song You'll Be in My Heart] [singing]

For one so small, you seem so strong / My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm / This bond between us can't be broken / I will be here, don't you cry...| 'Cause you'll be in my heart / Yes, you'll be in my heart / From this day on, now and forevermore...| You'll be in my heart / No matter what they say / You'll be here in my heart, always.

Always... [song fades]

[The young boy laughs as his adoptive mother tickles him. He grins. Perhaps someday, he can prove to Kerchak he does belong. Just perhaps]

[The next day, the gorilla clan is making its road through the jungle once more, with Tarzan following behind. Later, Tarzan is seen following Terk and another couple of gorillas up a tree. He slips and ends up under Kerchak, who makes his road over the young boy. Kerchak glances at Tarzan and frowns in annoyance before continuing his road up the tree. Tarzan looks frustrated and proceeds to climb once more, but slips and starts to fall. Luckily, he is saved by Terk, who grabs him by the arm. She throws him a reassuring smirk and he smirks back at her]

Phil Collins
[sings]

Oh, the power to be strong and the wisdom to be wise. All these facts will come to you in time.
[Then Tarzan is seen following a chameleon upside down on a branch before slipping and landing on a bed of bananas, squishing them and getting the gorillas covered with bananas. This amuses Kala, who receives a frown from the other gorillas. Later, Tarzan is swimming in a pool with hippopotamuses and imitating their movements. After that, a rhinoceros can be seen sharpening its horn against a tree. Tarzan does the same with his own spear]

Phil Collins
[singing]

On this journey that you're making, there'll be responses that you seek. And it's you who'll climb the mountain, it's you who'll reach the peak.

Phil Collins
[Later on, Tarzan and Terk growl at each other and then get into a fight, with Terk coming out on top. Nearby, Tantor loses a fight to Manu. Later, Tarzan is swinging through the vines with an immigrated family of colobus monkeys] [singing]

Son of man, look to the sky! Lift your spirit, set it free! Someday you'll walk tall with pride! Son of man, a man in time you'll be!

Phil Collins
[Tarzan keeps swinging through until he grabs onto a python, which turns out to be Kaa. Neither the boy nor the snake notice each other as Tarzan slips into a nearby swamp which is filled with alligators and crocodiles. Among the gators are Brutus and Nero and among the crocs is Tick-Tock. As the gators and crocs all snap at Tarzan, Tarzan manages to avoid their every attack] [Three years later, Tarzan, now 13 years old, makes a spear out of sharpened rock and stick and throws it forward. It catches an apple, pear, peach and a cluster of berries, making it sort of like a fruit kabob. It his another tree, right over Kerchak, who is visibly amused. Tarzan chuckles hesitantly and swiftly swings away on a vine] [singing]

Though there's no one there to guide you, no one to take your hand. But with faith and understanding, you will journey from boy to man!

Phil Collins
[Tarzan and Terk are now spying on a marabou stork. They smirk mischievously at each other and jump down on it, catching its bill in a vine. They start riding on it like a horse until it throws them away and leaves them hanging from a tree] [Two years later, Tarzan, now 15 years old, swings out over the lake and, yet a child at heart, plays around with the elephants, including Tantor, who has just started to grow tusks. Kala watches from a distance with a proud grin on her face] [singing]

Son of man, look to the sky! Lift your spirit, set it free! Someday you'll walk tall with pride! Son of man, a man in time you'll be!

Phil Collins
[A number of years later, Tarzan is now a grown man. He cannonballs into the water, followed by Tantor, who is now handsome grown elephant with complete grown tusks. Tarzan swiftly brings Tantor to the surface and Tantor starts swimming proudly like a waterfowl. He swishes his trunk around and jiggles his butt as he swims proudly] [singing]

In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn. You'll find your places behind the ones you love.

Phil Collins
[On a rainy night, Kala is trying to keep herself dry. Just then, she looks up to find that Tarzan has arranged a large bushel of leaves over them like an umbrella. He comes down to join her under, she grins gratefully at him] [The next day, Tarzan and Sir Hiss meet face-to-face for the first time. Sir Hiss lunges for Tarzan, who easily tricks him into tangling himself around a couple of trees] [singing]

Oh, and all the facts you've dreamed of, the visions that you saw. Well, the time is drawing near now, it's yours to claim it all!
[Then Tarzan is seen scaling a waterfall all on his own. After that, Terk and Flynt, who have also quite grown a bit themselves, are trying to get some termites from a mound, but with no luck due to the thousands of termites. Luckily, Tarzan comes riding in and Tantor and trumpets the mound into a tree, smashing it. After avoiding the swarm of termites, Tarzan, Terk, Flynt and even Tantor share some termites]

Phil Collins
[singing]

Son of man, look to the sky! Lift your spirit, set it free! Someday you'll walk tall with pride! Son of man, a man in time you'll be!

Phil Collins
[As the gorilla clan makes its road through the jungle once more, Kerchak notices Tarzan swinging through the vines. You can warn the grumpy gorilla yet has no doubts about our jungle friend. Eventually, the ape man starts surfing through the branches of the trees] [singing]

Son of man! Son of man's a man for all to see!
[As the song ends, Tarzan lands on a branch and steals a proud glance at the audience] [Later that day, the primates are busy resting, cleaning, napping, etc. including the children. Tarzan is up to his old tricks again. He hides in some bushes and smirks as he sees Kala eating. With a chuckle, he sneaks up behind her as where not to alert her to his presence. He gets ready to frighten her as he gets close and holds his breath]

Phil Collins
[Then with that, Professor Archimedes Q. Porter helps Jane teach Tarzan to be civilized] [sings]

Whatever you do, I'll do it as well. Show me everything and warn me how. It all means something and yet nothing to me. I can see there's so much to learn, it's all so close and yet so far. I see myself as people see me. Oh, I just know there's something bigger out there. I wanna know, can you show me? I wanna know about these strangers like me. Warn me more, please show me something's familiar about these strangers like me. Every gesture, every move that she makes. Makes me feel like never before. Why do I have? This growing need to be behind her. These emotions I never knew of some other world far beyond this place. Beyond the trees, above the clouds. I see before me a new horizon. I wanna know, can you show me? I wanna know about these strangers like me. Warn me more, please show me something's familiar about these strangers like me. Come with me now to see my world, where there's beauty beyond your dreams. Can you feel the facts I feel? Right now, with you. Take my hand, there's a world I need to knoooooOOOOW!!!!

[A few days later, Tarzan begins to understand human language and grows fond of Jane]

We've wasted all this time on what he wants. The boat could arrive any day. Now ask him straight out.

[Then, Jane walks up to Tarzan]

Tarzan, will you take us to the gorillas? Do you understand?

Tarzan

I understand.

Ooh! Nice work, Jane.

Tarzan

I can't.

Professor Porter and Cecil Clayton

What?

Why not, Tarzan?

Tarzan

Kerchak.

What? [sighs]

Phil Collins
[singing]

I wanna know, can you show me? I wanna know about these strangers like me. Warn me more, please show me something's familiar about these strangers like me. I wanna know!
[As Tarzan is using the slides later, he stops at the picture of a man offering flowers to a woman]

[Last lines]

London will seem so small compared to all this.

Tarzan

I will miss you, Jane.

Captain
[Off-screen]

Miss Porter!

I-I know, I'm coming. Well, I suppose we should say goodbye.

Tarzan
[Jane holds Tarzan his hands]

Goodbye.

[Jane sighs and walks away]

Goodbye, Tarzan, goodbye! Good Luck Oh, I'm going to miss that boy. Hmm? [holding his hand] Jane, dear, I can't help feeling that you should stay.

Daddy, please don't! We've been through all of this, I couldn't possibly--I--I belong in England and New York State with you, with people, and-- Ah!

[Chuckles]

But you love him. Go on!

[splashes his water and comes in; chuckles]

Um, thank you, I love you thanks for getting my glove, thank you... [kissing]

[The other animals confused and Jane chuckles]

What am I doing? Captain, tell them you never found us, eh? After all, people get lost in the jungle everyday! Toodle pip. [splashes his water]

Ooh-ooh-ee-eh-ooh.

Phil Collins
[Phil Collins music playing a song Two Worlds (Reprise)] [singing]

Put your faith in what you most believe in / Two worlds, one family / Trust your heart, let fate decide / To guide these lives we see / Put your faith in what you most believe in / Two worlds, one family... [song fades]
[Tarzan yells throughout the land, with the camera zooms out at the ends]

Phil Collins
[singing]

Come stop your crying / It will be all right / Just take my hand / Hold it tight...| I will protect you / From all around you / I will be here / Don't you cry...| For one so small, / You seem so strong / My arms will hold you, / Keep you safe and warm...| This bond between us / Can't be broken / I will be here / Don't you cry...| 'Cause you'll be in my heart / Yes, you'll be in my heart / From this day on / Now and forever more...| You'll be in my heart / No matter what they say / You'll be here in my heart always...| Why can't they understand the way we feel? / They just don't trust what they can't explain / I know we're different, but deep inside us / We're not that different at all...| And you'll be in my heart / Yes, you'll be in my heart / From this day on / Now and forever more...| Don't listen to them / 'Cause what do they know, what do they know? / We need each other / To have, to hold / They'll see in time / I know...| When destiny calls you / You must be strong, you gotta be strong / I may not be with you / But you got to hold on / They'll see in time / I know / We'll show them together...| 'Cause you'll be in my heart / Believe me, you'll be in my heart / I'll be there from this day on, / Now and forever more...| Oh, you'll be in my heart, you'll be here in my heart / No matter what they say, I'll be with you / You'll be here in my heart, I'll be there, always...| Always / I'll be with you / Well, I'll be there for you always / Always and always / Just look over your shoulder / Just look over your shoulder / Just look over your shoulder / I'll be there always...
