0:00:510:00:54

Look at all my friends.

0:00:540:00:55

I'll tell you why.

0:00:570:01:00

-Jambo, Lion.

-Jambo, Monkey.

0:01:040:01:07

DISTANT ARGUING

0:01:070:01:08

What's all the noise at the waterhole?

0:01:080:01:11

SPLASHING AND BICKERING

0:01:110:01:13

Stop it, Crocodile.

0:01:130:01:15

Oh, Crocodile's snapping at everyone again.

0:01:150:01:18

I don't know what to do.

0:01:180:01:20

Snap right back at him. You are the king.

0:01:200:01:23

LION SIGHS

0:01:230:01:26

Well, if you won't snap at him, I will. Hmm!

0:01:260:01:30

LION SIGHS

0:01:300:01:32

Crocodile won't listen to me.

0:01:320:01:34

No-one ever listens to me.

0:01:340:01:37

That's because you're so tiny, Flea.

0:01:370:01:39

And I listen to you. That's all that matters.

0:01:390:01:43

SPLASHING AND ARGUING

0:01:430:01:46

You see, there was a time when Lion wasn't like a king.

0:01:460:01:50

You could say Lion had no roar.

0:01:500:01:53

Leave us alone, Crocodile. You big bully.

0:01:540:01:57

Go on, Croc. Do it again, do it again. He-he-he-he!

0:01:570:02:01

SNAPPING

0:02:010:02:03

Pick on someone your own size!

0:02:030:02:05

CROCODILE LAUGHS

0:02:050:02:06

-Elephant.

-Not me. Don't pick on me.

0:02:060:02:09

SNAPPING AND LAUGHING

0:02:090:02:12

Crocodile, the water belongs to everybody.

0:02:120:02:15

Not any more, it doesn't. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

0:02:150:02:18

Right!

0:02:180:02:20

Oh. Monkey.

0:02:200:02:21

Mmm-hmm.

0:02:210:02:23

Hmm, yes?

0:02:230:02:26

Nothing.

0:02:270:02:28

Lion, do something.

0:02:280:02:30

Crocodile will learn the error of his ways, Hippo. No need to worry.

0:02:300:02:35

THEY GASP

0:02:350:02:36

You see? Lion had no roar, at all.

0:02:360:02:39

LION SIGHS

0:02:390:02:41

Lion, you really should do something.

0:02:410:02:44

You are the King of Ting Tinga.

0:02:440:02:47

Crocodile won't listen to me. Best just to lay low and wait.

0:02:470:02:53

Watch out, Flamingo!

0:02:530:02:57

Yes, watch out, pinkie.

0:02:570:02:59

SNAPPING AND LAUGHING

0:02:590:03:01

Oh, how rude. Lion, are you just going to sit there and do nothing?

0:03:010:03:06

Lion, now's your chance. Go on.

0:03:060:03:09

No, Flea, I can't.

0:03:090:03:12

This is not nature's way.

0:03:120:03:15

(Go on, Tortoise, say something.)

0:03:160:03:21

Ah-hmm. Err, Your Majesty, jambo.

0:03:210:03:25

We are gathered here to discuss what is to be done about Crocodile.

0:03:250:03:30

Say something, Lion. Say something.

0:03:300:03:34

Er, that is not good.

0:03:340:03:37

Not good? Not good? Am I hearing correctly?

0:03:370:03:40

You're telling me, it's not good.

0:03:400:03:42

Your Majesty, the animals need their waterhole back

0:03:420:03:47

and as you are our king,

0:03:470:03:49

I believe it's time for you to stand up to Crocodile.

0:03:490:03:54

LION SIGHS

0:03:540:03:55

Say you will, say you will.

0:03:550:03:59

I will.

0:03:590:04:00

CHEERING

0:04:000:04:02

That is the Lion I know.

0:04:020:04:03

A good roar will show Crocodile who's the boss.

0:04:050:04:08

-Take away his snap!

-Show Crocodile who's the king.

0:04:080:04:12

The water's fine when it's mine, all mine.

0:04:130:04:17

Nothing better than a really big bath to swim around in.

0:04:170:04:21

Crocodile.

0:04:210:04:22

Lion! Oh, ah!

0:04:220:04:24

CROCODILE SNARLS

0:04:240:04:26

Er, the animals would like their waterhole...back.

0:04:260:04:30

Heh-heh. Oh, really?

0:04:300:04:32

I think it's time you played fair, don't you?

0:04:320:04:35

And how are you going to make me do that?

0:04:350:04:38

-Hmmm...

-You have to roar, Lion.

0:04:380:04:43

Now is the time to roar!

0:04:430:04:45

Come on, Lion.

0:04:450:04:47

LION STRUGGLES TO ROAR

0:04:500:04:54

THEY GASP

0:04:560:04:58

Lion?

0:04:580:04:59

Lost for words, are we, Lion? Ha-ha-ha!

0:04:590:05:03

I've got a bigger roar than that!

0:05:030:05:08

Looks like I'm here to stay then, doesn't it?

0:05:080:05:11

CROCODILE SNAPS

0:05:110:05:12

Um, oh, oh, no.

0:05:120:05:15

Poor Lion.

0:05:150:05:17

Well, that didn't go according to plan, did it?

0:05:170:05:21

Let's face it, Flea. I'm just not a born king.

0:05:260:05:31

I don't roar like a king and I don't sound like a king.

0:05:310:05:35

That's because you have to feel like a king

0:05:350:05:38

-before you can sound like one.

-Oh.

0:05:380:05:41

Look at me, I'm tiny on the outside, but I feel really big on the inside.

0:05:410:05:46

And I can do really big things like somersaults.

0:05:460:05:50

And hop. Hop, hop, hop, hop.

0:05:520:05:55

And I can even roar!

0:05:550:05:58

FLEA TAKES A DEEP BREATH

0:05:580:06:00

Roar.

0:06:000:06:01

But I don't have a roar.

0:06:010:06:05

I know how you can find it.

0:06:050:06:07

-How?

-In the great cave of Ting Tinga.

0:06:070:06:11

Come on.

0:06:110:06:12

FLEA GIGGLES

0:06:120:06:15

I haven't had a bath for weeks.

0:06:170:06:19

We all haven't, Elephant.

0:06:190:06:21

It's outrageous. Who does Crocodile think he is?

0:06:210:06:25

I'm afraid, animals, Crocodile thinks he's the King of Tinga Tinga.

0:06:250:06:30

Maybe it is time for a new king.

0:06:300:06:33

Elephant is the strongest.

0:06:330:06:34

But remember, big head, see - tiny brain.

0:06:340:06:40

THEY ALL LAUGH

0:06:400:06:42

What about three monkey kings?

0:06:420:06:44

-Monkey one.

-Monkey two.

-Don't forget monkey three.

0:06:440:06:47

THEY GIGGLE

0:06:470:06:49

Animals, please, this is important. Without a king who can protect us,

0:06:490:06:55

Tinga Tinga will become a very dangerous place.

0:06:550:06:59

Oh, where's Lion when you need him?

0:06:590:07:02

Lion, you are the only animal fit to be king of Tinga Tinga.

0:07:070:07:12

It's time to find your roar.

0:07:120:07:15

Um, is this the only way?

0:07:150:07:18

You must conquer all your fears and enter the great cave.

0:07:180:07:23

But no beast has ever dared set foot there.

0:07:230:07:26

That is why you, Lion, must be the first.

0:07:260:07:30

You were born King of Tinga Tinga

0:07:300:07:32

and you must stay King of Tinga Tinga.

0:07:320:07:35

-Who are you?

-I'm King of Tinga Tinga.

0:07:350:07:38

Then tell that to the great cave and find your roar!

0:07:380:07:44

CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:07:440:07:46

I am King of Tinga Tinga. Who are you?

0:07:460:07:50

I am King of Tinga Tinga. Who are you?

0:07:500:07:54

Oh.

0:07:540:07:55

Go on, Lion. Find your roar.

0:07:550:07:59

I am King of Tinga Tinga. Who are you?

0:08:000:08:04

I am King of Tinga Tinga. Who are you?

0:08:040:08:08

LION HUFFS AND PUFFS

0:08:080:08:10

I am King of Tinga Tinga.

0:08:120:08:14

I am King of Tinga Tinga.

0:08:140:08:17

Oh.

0:08:180:08:21

Huh?

0:08:210:08:22

I am King of Tinga Tinga.

0:08:230:08:26

I am King of Tinga Tinga.

0:08:260:08:29

Stop that. Stop that. Stop it.

0:08:290:08:32

Huh? Bat?

0:08:320:08:34

Please stop roaring. You're scaring me.

0:08:340:08:36

-I am?

-Yes. Your roar is very, very loud.

0:08:360:08:41

It is?

0:08:410:08:42

And your echo.

0:08:420:08:44

My echo?

0:08:440:08:45

They're both you. You roar and your echo roars back.

0:08:450:08:49

I have found my roar!

0:08:490:08:52

I have found my roar!

0:08:520:08:54

RO-O-OAR!

0:08:540:08:56

LION LAUGHS

0:08:560:08:58

I have found my roar!

0:08:580:09:03

I have found my ro-o-o-o-o-oar!

0:09:030:09:06

LION LAUGHS

0:09:060:09:09

Teeth all cleany, fit for a meany.

0:09:100:09:14

CROCODILE SNAPS

0:09:180:09:20

Uh, uh, uh, Hippo. Naughty, naughty.

0:09:200:09:23

But I'm thirsty. All the animals are thirsty.

0:09:230:09:27

It's MY waterhole.

0:09:270:09:30

O-o-o-oh.

0:09:300:09:31

Mamba.

0:09:310:09:32

-HIPPO GASPS

-Lion!

0:09:320:09:33

Crocodile...

0:09:330:09:35

..I command you to share the waterhole with all the animals.

0:09:360:09:39

Heh-heh-heh. And how are you going to make me do that?

0:09:390:09:43

LION TAKES A DEEP BREATH

0:09:430:09:47

I am King of Tinga Tinga. Who are you?

0:09:470:09:51

RO-O-O-OAR!

0:09:510:09:53

ROAR!

0:09:530:09:54

Argh! Help!

0:09:540:09:55

Look at Croc run. Look at him go.

0:09:550:09:57

Help, help, help!

0:09:570:09:59

CROCODILE WHIMPERS

0:09:590:10:00

The King of Tinga Tinga is back! He-he-he.

0:10:000:10:03

THEY LAUGH

0:10:030:10:05

Roar.

0:10:050:10:06

Lion is the King. Lion is the King.

0:10:060:10:09

Karibu. Your waterhole.

0:10:090:10:11

THEY ALL CHEER AND LAUGH

0:10:110:10:14

Roar.

0:10:150:10:16

So that is why Lion roars.

0:10:160:10:18

Ha-ha, Monkey. Roar. Ha-ha.

0:10:180:10:21

He found his roar in the great cave and from that day on,

0:10:210:10:25

Lion ruled over Tinga Tinga.

0:10:250:10:27

RO-O-O-OAR!

0:10:270:10:30

Only using his big, scary roar when he absolutely had to.

0:10:300:10:35

-Ro-o-o-oar.

-Help! Help!

0:10:370:10:40

LION LAUGHS

0:10:400:10:42

Roar.

0:10:420:10:44

Well done, mighty Lion.

0:10:440:10:46

Thank you, tiny Flea.

0:10:460:10:49

FLEA SIGHS AND GIGGLES

0:10:490:10:51

And why Flea jumps...

0:10:530:10:55

..Well, that's a whole other story! He-he-he.
