Look at all my friends! | 0:00:54 | 0:00:55 | |
I'll tell you why. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
See, there was a time when Elephant had no nose. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
Oh, come on. Oh! | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
Phrr! Leave me alone. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
He was big. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
And he was clumsy. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
Whoa! | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
-Doh! -Elephant! | 0:01:21 | 0:01:22 | |
Sorry, Tortoise. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
And he was very, very smelly. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
# Good morning, good morning | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
# Up early, up early | 0:01:31 | 0:01:32 | |
# Up early! | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
# Another brand new day | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
# Another brand new day... # | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
Pooh! Jambo, Elephant. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
Jambo, Lion. Jambo, everyone! | 0:01:43 | 0:01:47 | |
ALL: Jambo, Elephant. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
Oh, that's Elephant, isn't it? | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
How did you guess? | 0:01:52 | 0:01:53 | |
Something in the air, maybe? | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
Jambo, Monkeys. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:57 | |
Do you know how to make flies go away? | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
Tell them to, "Buzz off!" | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
Buzz off. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:05 | |
Buzz off! | 0:02:05 | 0:02:06 | |
Doesn't work. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
It was a joke, Elephant! | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
Oh...sorry. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
Big head, see. Tiny brain. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
RATTLING | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
Why don't you try having a good, old w... | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
Walk in the bush. That should get rid of the flies. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
Thank you. Asante, Monkeys. I will. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
THEY GIGGLE | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
Oh, Monkey. You should have told Elephant. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
Have you seen the size of him?! | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
Elephant doesn't know how much he smells because he's got no nose. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:40 | |
So how does Elephant smell? | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
Terrible! | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:02:44 | 0:02:45 | |
Grumpy this morning, Crocodile? | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
-Grr! -No surprise, there, then. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
Not grumpy, Your Highness. Snappy. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
-All day long. Snap, snap, snap... -Ahem. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
Some beast really ought to tell Elephant that he smells. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:02 | |
Very pongy. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:03 | |
Tortoise? | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
Me?! It would take me ages to catch up with him. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
You are his oldest friend. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
Very well, then. I'll tell Elephant straightaway. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:16 | |
Straightaway now or straightaway next year? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
Monkeys! | 0:03:20 | 0:03:21 | |
THEY GIGGLE | 0:03:21 | 0:03:22 | |
Buzz off! Buzz off! | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
This one's called nectar. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
Whoa, rainbow, sweet! | 0:03:30 | 0:03:34 | |
Leaf! Flower! Ha-ha! Leaf, flower! | 0:03:34 | 0:03:39 | |
Whoa, mmm, fly food! | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
Yummy! | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
Jambo, Chameleon. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:45 | |
-How are you? -These flies are tasty! | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
Do you mind if I...? | 0:03:50 | 0:03:51 | |
Help yourself. Hey, you'd be doing me a favour. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
Phew. That's it. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
I've got flies up to here. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
Is that all you can eat? These flies are driving me crazy! | 0:04:03 | 0:04:08 | |
Flies like stinky things, my friend. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
I'm sorry? | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
Here's the thing. You, Elephant, have a slight problem, in the... | 0:04:12 | 0:04:17 | |
-The whiffy department. -I'm sorry? | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
-You know, whiffy! -Sorry, Chameleon, still don't get you! | 0:04:20 | 0:04:25 | |
Big head, see. Tiny brain. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
RATTLING | 0:04:27 | 0:04:28 | |
-Smelly! -Ooh, good or bad? | 0:04:28 | 0:04:33 | |
You're talking...pretty bad! | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
-Oh. -Now, now, don't get all upset. It's nothing a good scrub won't fix. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:41 | |
I can't scrub. I can't reach behind my ears. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
I can't reach my back. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
I can't even reach my belly. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
GROANS | 0:04:52 | 0:04:53 | |
OK, big fella, OK. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
Ah! Why don't you just change, like me. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:59 | |
And you, too, could be as fresh as a daisy. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
Come on, have a go. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
PAINFUL GROANING | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
-Excuse me. -Well, if you can't change, then I'm all out of ideas. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
-Thank you for being so honest, Chameleon. -Sorry, Elephant. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:19 | |
Nice flies, though. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:20 | |
SNIFFING | 0:05:23 | 0:05:24 | |
Pooh! | 0:05:24 | 0:05:25 | |
Oh! Phrr! | 0:05:27 | 0:05:29 | |
Whoa! | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
Not again! | 0:05:34 | 0:05:35 | |
Sorry, Tortoise. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:36 | |
-I thought you was... -I know, I know you thought I was a rock. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
-Big head, see. -Tiny brain. I know. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:44 | |
RATTLING AND LAUGHTER | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
We do go back a very, very long time, don't we, Tortoise? | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
So why didn't you ever tell me that I smell? | 0:05:49 | 0:05:54 | |
Have you ever thought of taking a bath? | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
Oh! No, that's brilliant! Why didn't I think of that? | 0:05:57 | 0:06:01 | |
Big head, see. Tiny brain! | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
Guess who's coming? | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
Jambo, everyone! | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
-Jambo, Elephant. -Pooh, Jambo, Elephant. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
Couldn't shake those flies off, then? | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
No. Chameleon says it's because I smell. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
And Tortoise suggested I should have a bath. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
So, could I wash in your waterhole, please? | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
Of course, Elephant. Come on in, the water's lovely! | 0:06:27 | 0:06:32 | |
Oh, thanks. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
-Oh! -Don't even think of coming in my waterhole! | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
I think you'll find, it's our... | 0:06:39 | 0:06:43 | |
Crocodile! All right, all right. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
SNAPS ANGRILY | 0:06:46 | 0:06:47 | |
ELEPHANT SIGHS | 0:06:50 | 0:06:51 | |
-Come, come. -But I don't want to smell. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
Crocodile will swim off down river. You can have a bath tomorrow. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:02 | |
-Try and get some sleep. -Hmm! | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
Watch out for Crocodile, though. He's so snappy-snappy. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:09 | |
OWL CALLS | 0:07:13 | 0:07:14 | |
ELEPHANT SNORTS | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
I can't even blow my nose! | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
Jambo, Elephant. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
-Owl, is that you? -Of course it's me. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
Who else would be up at this time of the night? | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
What's the matter? | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
The monkeys laugh at me all the time and Chameleon says I smell. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:40 | |
Tortoise thinks I should have a bath but Crocodile won't let me! | 0:07:40 | 0:07:44 | |
HE CRIES | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
No, no, no, no, no. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:47 | |
I know it seems bad, Elephant, but sometimes good things come from bad. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:53 | |
What do you mean, Owl? | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
Trust me. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
HE SNORES | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
Hmmm. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:10 | |
-Snap! -Huh! My nose! | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
ELEPHANT SHOUTS | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
Help, I've been snapped! | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
-That's Elephant. -We're coming. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:28 | |
It's Elephant! | 0:08:28 | 0:08:29 | |
Crocodile! Stop it! Stop it right now! | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
Stop talking, start pulling. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
Crocodile! | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
-Come on. -Ooh! | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
Heave! | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
Pull! | 0:08:54 | 0:08:55 | |
Heave! | 0:08:55 | 0:08:57 | |
Pull! | 0:08:58 | 0:08:59 | |
Don't worry, Elephant, I'm coming! | 0:09:06 | 0:09:09 | |
Hurry up, Tortoise! | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
I'm here, Elephant! | 0:09:11 | 0:09:12 | |
Heave! | 0:09:14 | 0:09:15 | |
CRASH! | 0:09:20 | 0:09:21 | |
Look at my nose! | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
It's all long and wiggly. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
THEY ALL LAUGH | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
Mmm! | 0:09:35 | 0:09:36 | |
A useful wiggly nose! | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
Gotcha! Ha ha! | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
A very useful wiggly nose, indeed. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:49 | |
Mmm, I wonder. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:52 | |
Look, I'm clean! | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
No more smell! | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
THEY ALL SNIFF | 0:10:04 | 0:10:05 | |
Aaah! | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
I'm clean! I'm clean! | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
And I bet you can blow your new nose, too! | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
TRUMPETS | 0:10:16 | 0:10:18 | |
I can, I can blow my nose! | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
TRUMPETS | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
Now, Elephant, what will you call your new nose? | 0:10:27 | 0:10:32 | |
Er, a trunk. I think I will call it a trunk. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:37 | |
THEY ALL LAUGH | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
And that's why Elephant has a trunk. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
You see, sometimes good things do come from bad. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:50 | |
And Owl was right. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:51 | |
But how did Owl become so wise? | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
Well, that's a whole other story. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:57 | |
