:17:01
It's getting upset.
:17:02
Make no doubt about it, it'd whack
its fangs into me at any given moment.
:17:06
See how it keeps lining me up?
It's really grumpy.
:17:11
Beautiful snake!
:17:13
You're just a little grumpy now.
:17:15
They're just like people.
She just wants to move away from me.
:17:18
Many people think snakes are evil
monsters cruising around killing people.
:17:23
Those fangs are like hypodermic needles.
:17:27
Two hypodermic needles sitting
in the back of their head, ready to....
:17:33
Settle down, sweetheart.
:17:35
How was that for a swing? Straight at me!
:17:37
Look at these flies.
:17:39
Right in me eyes! It's so dry and hot out here...
:17:42
...the flies are coming into my eyes for a drink!
:17:45
Any form of moisture.
:17:47
She's starting to settle down now.
:17:49
Look at this. Nice and quiet.
:17:52
Look at her. What a beauty.
:17:54
I call it "her" because I'm in love with her.
:17:56
She knows I mean her no harm.
What a beautiful snake.
:18:01
You know, I'm a professional.
:18:03
If you see a snake like this, don't muck with it.
:18:06
And one thing's for sure, don't try this at home!
:18:10
Far too dangerous.
:18:12
This snake could have
enough venom to kill me...
:18:15
...and a hundred other blokes
out here in the West.
:18:17
What an honor to share territory...
:18:19
...to share space, with such a beautiful animal!
:18:23
Steamer.
:18:24
I've got to tell you...
:18:26
...I'd rather deal with this snake...
:18:28
...than a lot of people I know.
:18:31
I reckon that people are much more dangerous.
:18:37
No questions?
:18:39
Gentlemen, that concludes this briefing.
:18:43
Reynolds, do you have a second?
:18:45
Sure.
:18:49
I was surprised with the selection
of the Australian mission.
:18:52
Surprised or disappointed?
:18:53
Both. The second member
should have been from my department.
:18:57
Wheeler will do fine.
:18:58
Fine isn't what my division aims for.
