0:01:10 > 0:01:14- Phew! Now we are all smelly! - THEY LAUGH
0:01:14 > 0:01:18But, you see, there was a time when Skunk didn't smell at all.
0:01:18 > 0:01:23Skunk was the sweetest-smelling animal in all of Tinga Tinga.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27- Phoo!- Let's go and see Skunk. Come on.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31And whenever any animal had a smelly problem
0:01:31 > 0:01:33they went to see Skunk.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Ooh, wait for me!
0:01:38 > 0:01:42ELEPHANT LAUGHS There you go.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45And the finishing touch.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00All right, all right, Elephant.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02I am very old, you know.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06- Jambo, Skunk.- Jambo, Tortoise.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Dear, oh, dear, dear, dear.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10I know, I know.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14And when exactly was the last time you...cleaned your shell?
0:02:14 > 0:02:18Oh, well, um...let me see, now... um...
0:02:18 > 0:02:20(27 years ago.)
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Oh, Tortoise, you need to take care of yourself.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26Neither of us are getting any younger.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29And one of us is certainly not smelling any sweeter.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Is there anything you can do?
0:02:32 > 0:02:36Hmmm. It's a big job. But as it's you...
0:02:36 > 0:02:41Hmm-hmm-hmm... Just get that... And...phew! That's a tricky bit.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06Thank you, old friend. Asante.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08My pleasure.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13- But remember, Tortoise, clean your shell twice a day.- Oh, I promise.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Ooh-hoo-hoo, you do smell good!
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- ELEPHANT SNIFFS - You really do!
0:03:19 > 0:03:22- Oh, Elephant, get that thing off me! - THEY ALL LAUGH
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Ohhh! All that cleaning's made me hungry.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29I must have a little break. Mmmm...
0:03:29 > 0:03:31- Skunk!- Hmm?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34I've been waiting in this queue for ages
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- and look at me, I'm all dirty. - SKUNK SIGHS
0:03:38 > 0:03:40What is it with you, Baboon?
0:03:40 > 0:03:44You're back here every day, smelling worse than ever!
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Why can't you be like the other monkeys?
0:03:46 > 0:03:50Because I am not a monkey. I'm a baboon.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52And a very smelly one.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55SKUNK SIGHS Come here.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59- Ooh...- Oh-hoo!
0:03:59 > 0:04:03Oh-ho-hoo-hoo!
0:04:03 > 0:04:05There you go.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07All cleaned up. Again.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Skunk, can you do the nice smelly thing?
0:04:10 > 0:04:13You don't deserve it, Baboon. BABOON LAUGHS
0:04:15 > 0:04:19- Tricked you!- You don't deserve it at all!
0:04:19 > 0:04:21LAUGHTER
0:04:21 > 0:04:23The baboon is really naughty.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Well, that does it.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30I'm never cleaning that badly behaved baboon ever again!
0:04:30 > 0:04:36Clean, clean, clean all day long and this is all the thanks I get.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38- We thank you.- Every day, Skunk.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41- Asante. Thank you. - Asante, Skunk.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45It's always a pleasure cleaning you monkeys.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48- Now, who's first?- Me!- Me!
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Poor Skunk. The cleaning never stopped.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54And the animals just kept on coming.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Ohh, Hippo...
0:04:57 > 0:04:59See what I mean?
0:04:59 > 0:05:01You know, this is exhausting, Hippo.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Every week I say, "Stay away from those muddy holes."
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Mud feels so good on the skin.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09But not so good on the nose!
0:05:09 > 0:05:12HIPPO LAUGHS
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Phew! Finished. Ohhh...
0:05:16 > 0:05:20Thank you, Skunk. Now I smell suh-weet!
0:05:20 > 0:05:23As sweet as sweet can be!
0:05:23 > 0:05:25WEARILY: Next!
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Jambo, Skunk!
0:05:27 > 0:05:31You've got a cheek, Baboon! Now, I'm not cleaning you ever again.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- But...but...but...- No buts, Baboon.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37- Now, go.- Ohh...
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Thank you, Your Majesty.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41You do sound tired, Skunk.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Oh, I'm too old for all this cleaning, Your Majesty.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Look at the white in my tail.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49I need to take things easy.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53But look! It's just not going to happen.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56- Skunk's taking a long time. - What's going on?
0:05:56 > 0:06:01The thing is, Skunk, you have been given the great gift of sweet smell
0:06:01 > 0:06:05to help Tinga Tinga. It's nature's way, I'm afraid.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I suppose you're right, Your Majesty.
0:06:07 > 0:06:13Now, let's make your mane smell sweet and fit for a king, shall we?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Asante, Skunk. Thank you.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21Oh! Hm.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24HYENA LAUGHS
0:06:24 > 0:06:26You don't look so good, Baboon.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Ha, ha, ha!
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Or smell that good, either.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33That's because Skunk won't make me smell nice.
0:06:33 > 0:06:39Ha, ha! Well, what do you expect? You did steal his fruit.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41But that was just a joke.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44It doesn't sound like Skunk found it very funny.
0:06:44 > 0:06:45Oh...!
0:06:45 > 0:06:49I know a way you win back Skunk's favour.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51You do?! Tell me!
0:06:51 > 0:06:54You say sorry to Skunk,
0:06:54 > 0:06:58and you take him the most delicious and sweet-smelling fruit
0:06:58 > 0:07:00in Tinga Tinga.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01What's it called?
0:07:01 > 0:07:06This fruit is big and juicy and...
0:07:06 > 0:07:07What's it called?
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Smell it.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Mmmmm!
0:07:11 > 0:07:14Taste it.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16It's the sweetest thing...
0:07:16 > 0:07:20I've ever tasted. What's it called?
0:07:29 > 0:07:32CUCKOO, CUCKOO!
0:07:32 > 0:07:36Whoa! What was that?! It smells terrible!
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- Ha, ha, ha!- What's it called?
0:07:39 > 0:07:43It's called smelly fruit. Ha, ha, ha!
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Smell it!
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Oh, smelly fruit!
0:07:48 > 0:07:52Do you think sweet Skunk will like smelly fruit?
0:07:53 > 0:07:56I think he will!
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Oh Hippo, what did I tell you?
0:08:03 > 0:08:08I tried to keep out of the mud, honest, but it was so squidgy...
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Jambo, Skunk!- Baboon?
0:08:10 > 0:08:14I told you I'm not cleaning you ever again.
0:08:14 > 0:08:19But, Skunk, I only want to say sorry for being so naughty.
0:08:19 > 0:08:26Look, I've brought you the sweetest smelling fruit in Tinga Tinga.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28- Arrgh!- Smell it.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- Ooh, it does smell lovely! - Taste it.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Hm, it's so delicious.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40How much longer?!
0:08:40 > 0:08:45Ooh, I could do with a little rest and I am quite hungry.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Have some...
0:08:49 > 0:08:54That is delicious and so sweet. What's it called?
0:08:54 > 0:08:58- Have some more. - Skunk's taking a long time.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Probably having a well deserved rest.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03And a sweet snack.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07Tasty, tasty, tasty. What's it called?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11CUCKOO! CUCKOO!
0:09:16 > 0:09:21WH-E-E-E-E! Oh, excuse me!
0:09:22 > 0:09:23COUGH, COUGH!
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Is that me?
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Goodness!
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- I'm so sorry. - That smells just awful.
0:09:30 > 0:09:36How embarrassing! I'll spray some sweet scent to cover it up.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38No, no, no!
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Argh! That's worse!
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Stop, dear, please. I can smell it up here!
0:09:46 > 0:09:49We'd better get out of here.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54- Uh-oh!- Baboon, it was that fruit, wasn't it?
0:09:54 > 0:09:57You gave Skunk that dreadful fruit, didn't you?
0:09:57 > 0:09:59What is it called?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Unfortunately, it's called smelly fruit.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02Oh...
0:10:02 > 0:10:05Ha, ha, ha! Hee, hee!
0:10:05 > 0:10:09Baboon, you are extremely naughty and this trick must be punished.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Wait, Your Majesty. I've never seen it before.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17- But look...- Yes? Everyone's gone and...?
0:10:17 > 0:10:19No queue of animals.
0:10:19 > 0:10:24- And?- Now I can sit back and enjoy
0:10:24 > 0:10:29a beautiful Tinga Tinga sunset in my old age.
0:10:30 > 0:10:31WH-E-E-E-E!
0:10:31 > 0:10:33I'm terribly sorry!
0:10:34 > 0:10:37And that is why Skunk smells.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41But, Skunk, that smell - it's terrible.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44But it may have its uses.
0:10:44 > 0:10:45WHE-E-E-E-E!
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Phoar, that's smelly!
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Ha, ha, ha!
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- And naughty Baboon... - Sorry, Skunk, sorry.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58..That's a whole other story.
