  Episode Summary  
When Tantor becomes ill from drinking poisoned water, the rest of the gang travel upstream to find the source. Almost near the top, they are mistaken by an African tribe to be the poisoners, because of their British accent, among other things. So they are held captive. A great, fast-paced episode which builds to a cliff-hanger which is continued in Part Two. This adventure includes an exciting river journey in Dumont's boat with Tarzan, Jane and Prof. Porter.

  Episode Notes  
"Tarzan" has been protested by many African-Americans who claim that the books are racist, since the Waziri tribe seem less adapted to the African jungles than Tarzan, even though they have been there for many centuries longer. In reality, the Waziri are depicted as noble warriors and fast friends of Tarzan's. As Edgar Rice Burroughs frequently points out, Tarzan's superior jungle craft comes from his feral upbringing, not from any racial differences. Disney has admirably preserved this relationship.
 
This episode marks the first appearance of the Waziri tribe, including the recurring characters, Basuli and his father, Keewazi.
 
This episode is the only two-part episode of the entire series, although numerous episodes do have sequels.

Chief Keewazi: I don't know if I can trust you, Tarzan. But fighting with you is no help.
