-Look at all my friends!

0:00:510:00:55

-# Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh. #

-I'll tell you why...

0:00:550:01:00

Skunk! Pee-yew!

0:01:040:01:07

-Phew! Now we are all smelly!

-THEY LAUGH

0:01:100:01:14

But, you see, there was a time when Skunk didn't smell at all.

0:01:140:01:18

Skunk was the sweetest-smelling animal in all of Tinga Tinga.

0:01:180:01:23

-Phoo!

-Let's go and see Skunk. Come on.

0:01:230:01:27

And whenever any animal had a smelly problem

0:01:270:01:31

they went to see Skunk.

0:01:310:01:33

Ooh, wait for me!

0:01:330:01:35

ELEPHANT LAUGHS There you go.

0:01:380:01:42

And the finishing touch.

0:01:420:01:45

THEY LAUGH

0:01:450:01:48

Everything smells sweet.

0:01:480:01:50

-Thank you, Skunk. Asante.

-You're welcome.

0:01:500:01:53

ELEPHANT SNIFFS

0:01:530:01:54

Ooh, Tortoise, you're a bit pongy.

0:01:540:01:57

All right, all right, Elephant.

0:01:570:02:00

I am very old, you know.

0:02:000:02:02

-Jambo, Skunk.

-Jambo, Tortoise.

0:02:020:02:06

Dear, oh, dear, dear, dear.

0:02:060:02:08

I know, I know.

0:02:080:02:10

And when exactly was the last time you...cleaned your shell?

0:02:100:02:14

Oh, well, um...let me see, now... um...

0:02:140:02:18

(27 years ago.)

0:02:180:02:20

Oh, Tortoise, you need to take care of yourself.

0:02:200:02:23

Neither of us are getting any younger.

0:02:230:02:26

And one of us is certainly not smelling any sweeter.

0:02:260:02:29

Is there anything you can do?

0:02:290:02:32

Hmmm. It's a big job. But as it's you...

0:02:320:02:36

Hmm-hmm-hmm... Just get that... And...phew! That's a tricky bit.

0:02:360:02:41

SKUNK WHISTLES TUNE

0:02:410:02:43

TORTOISE LAUGHS

0:02:430:02:45

Yes.

0:02:470:02:48

SKUNK LAUGHS HELPLESSLY

0:02:480:02:51

SKUNK HUMS TUNE

0:02:510:02:53

And the finishing touch.

0:02:550:02:58

There. You smell...

0:02:580:03:00

As sweet as sweet can be.

0:03:000:03:03

Thank you, old friend. Asante.

0:03:030:03:06

My pleasure.

0:03:060:03:08

-But remember, Tortoise, clean your shell twice a day.

-Oh, I promise.

0:03:080:03:13

Ooh-hoo-hoo, you do smell good!

0:03:130:03:16

-ELEPHANT SNIFFS

-You really do!

0:03:160:03:19

-Oh, Elephant, get that thing off me!

-THEY ALL LAUGH

0:03:190:03:22

Ohhh! All that cleaning's made me hungry.

0:03:220:03:26

I must have a little break. Mmmm...

0:03:260:03:29

-Skunk!

-Hmm?

0:03:290:03:31

I've been waiting in this queue for ages

0:03:310:03:34

-and look at me, I'm all dirty.

-SKUNK SIGHS

0:03:340:03:38

What is it with you, Baboon?

0:03:380:03:40

You're back here every day, smelling worse than ever!

0:03:400:03:44

Why can't you be like the other monkeys?

0:03:440:03:46

Because I am not a monkey. I'm a baboon.

0:03:460:03:50

And a very smelly one.

0:03:500:03:52

SKUNK SIGHS Come here.

0:03:520:03:55

-Ooh...

-Oh-hoo!

0:03:550:03:59

Oh-ho-hoo-hoo!

0:03:590:04:03

There you go.

0:04:030:04:05

All cleaned up. Again.

0:04:050:04:07

Skunk, can you do the nice smelly thing?

0:04:070:04:10

You don't deserve it, Baboon. BABOON LAUGHS

0:04:100:04:13

-Tricked you!

-You don't deserve it at all!

0:04:150:04:19

LAUGHTER

0:04:190:04:21

The baboon is really naughty.

0:04:210:04:23

Well, that does it.

0:04:230:04:25

I'm never cleaning that badly behaved baboon ever again!

0:04:250:04:30

Clean, clean, clean all day long and this is all the thanks I get.

0:04:300:04:36

-We thank you.

-Every day, Skunk.

0:04:360:04:38

-Asante. Thank you.

-Asante, Skunk.

0:04:380:04:41

It's always a pleasure cleaning you monkeys.

0:04:410:04:45

-Now, who's first?

-Me!

-Me!

0:04:450:04:48

Poor Skunk. The cleaning never stopped.

0:04:480:04:51

And the animals just kept on coming.

0:04:510:04:54

Ohh, Hippo...

0:04:560:04:57

See what I mean?

0:04:570:04:59

You know, this is exhausting, Hippo.

0:04:590:05:01

Every week I say, "Stay away from those muddy holes."

0:05:010:05:05

Mud feels so good on the skin.

0:05:050:05:07

But not so good on the nose!

0:05:070:05:09

HIPPO LAUGHS

0:05:090:05:12

Phew! Finished. Ohhh...

0:05:130:05:16

Thank you, Skunk. Now I smell suh-weet!

0:05:160:05:20

As sweet as sweet can be!

0:05:200:05:23

WEARILY: Next!

0:05:230:05:25

Jambo, Skunk!

0:05:250:05:27

You've got a cheek, Baboon! Now, I'm not cleaning you ever again.

0:05:270:05:31

-But...but...but...

-No buts, Baboon.

0:05:310:05:34

-Now, go.

-Ohh...

0:05:340:05:37

Thank you, Your Majesty.

0:05:370:05:39

You do sound tired, Skunk.

0:05:390:05:41

Oh, I'm too old for all this cleaning, Your Majesty.

0:05:410:05:44

Look at the white in my tail.

0:05:440:05:46

I need to take things easy.

0:05:460:05:49

But look! It's just not going to happen.

0:05:490:05:53

-Skunk's taking a long time.

-What's going on?

0:05:530:05:56

The thing is, Skunk, you have been given the great gift of sweet smell

0:05:560:06:01

to help Tinga Tinga. It's nature's way, I'm afraid.

0:06:010:06:05

I suppose you're right, Your Majesty.

0:06:050:06:07

Now, let's make your mane smell sweet and fit for a king, shall we?

0:06:070:06:13

Asante, Skunk. Thank you.

0:06:130:06:15

Oh! Hm.

0:06:170:06:21

HYENA LAUGHS

0:06:210:06:24

You don't look so good, Baboon.

0:06:240:06:26

Ha, ha, ha!

0:06:260:06:28

Or smell that good, either.

0:06:280:06:30

That's because Skunk won't make me smell nice.

0:06:300:06:33

Ha, ha! Well, what do you expect? You did steal his fruit.

0:06:330:06:39

But that was just a joke.

0:06:390:06:41

It doesn't sound like Skunk found it very funny.

0:06:410:06:44

Oh...!

0:06:440:06:45

I know a way you win back Skunk's favour.

0:06:450:06:49

You do?! Tell me!

0:06:490:06:51

You say sorry to Skunk,

0:06:510:06:54

and you take him the most delicious and sweet-smelling fruit

0:06:540:06:58

in Tinga Tinga.

0:06:580:07:00

What's it called?

0:07:000:07:01

This fruit is big and juicy and...

0:07:010:07:06

What's it called?

0:07:060:07:07

Smell it.

0:07:070:07:09

Mmmmm!

0:07:090:07:11

Taste it.

0:07:110:07:14

It's the sweetest thing...

0:07:140:07:16

I've ever tasted. What's it called?

0:07:160:07:20

CUCKOO, CUCKOO!

0:07:290:07:32

Whoa! What was that?! It smells terrible!

0:07:320:07:36

-Ha, ha, ha!

-What's it called?

0:07:360:07:39

It's called smelly fruit. Ha, ha, ha!

0:07:390:07:43

Smell it!

0:07:430:07:45

Oh, smelly fruit!

0:07:460:07:48

Do you think sweet Skunk will like smelly fruit?

0:07:480:07:52

I think he will!

0:07:530:07:56

Oh Hippo, what did I tell you?

0:08:010:08:03

I tried to keep out of the mud, honest, but it was so squidgy...

0:08:030:08:08

-Jambo, Skunk!

-Baboon?

0:08:080:08:10

I told you I'm not cleaning you ever again.

0:08:100:08:14

But, Skunk, I only want to say sorry for being so naughty.

0:08:140:08:19

Look, I've brought you the sweetest smelling fruit in Tinga Tinga.

0:08:190:08:26

-Arrgh!

-Smell it.

0:08:260:08:28

-Ooh, it does smell lovely!

-Taste it.

0:08:300:08:34

Hm, it's so delicious.

0:08:340:08:36

How much longer?!

0:08:370:08:40

Ooh, I could do with a little rest and I am quite hungry.

0:08:400:08:45

Have some...

0:08:450:08:47

That is delicious and so sweet. What's it called?

0:08:490:08:54

-Have some more.

-Skunk's taking a long time.

0:08:540:08:58

Probably having a well deserved rest.

0:08:580:09:00

And a sweet snack.

0:09:000:09:03

Tasty, tasty, tasty. What's it called?

0:09:030:09:07

CUCKOO! CUCKOO!

0:09:090:09:11

WH-E-E-E-E! Oh, excuse me!

0:09:160:09:21

COUGH, COUGH!

0:09:220:09:23

Is that me?

0:09:230:09:25

Goodness!

0:09:250:09:27

-I'm so sorry.

-That smells just awful.

0:09:270:09:30

How embarrassing! I'll spray some sweet scent to cover it up.

0:09:300:09:36

No, no, no!

0:09:360:09:38

Argh! That's worse!

0:09:380:09:40

Stop, dear, please. I can smell it up here!

0:09:400:09:44

We'd better get out of here.

0:09:460:09:49

-Uh-oh!

-Baboon, it was that fruit, wasn't it?

0:09:500:09:54

You gave Skunk that dreadful fruit, didn't you?

0:09:540:09:57

What is it called?

0:09:570:09:59

Unfortunately, it's called smelly fruit.

0:09:590:10:01

Oh...

0:10:010:10:02

Ha, ha, ha! Hee, hee!

0:10:020:10:05

Baboon, you are extremely naughty and this trick must be punished.

0:10:050:10:09

Wait, Your Majesty. I've never seen it before.

0:10:090:10:12

-But look...

-Yes? Everyone's gone and...?

0:10:120:10:17

No queue of animals.

0:10:170:10:19

-And?

-Now I can sit back and enjoy

0:10:190:10:24

a beautiful Tinga Tinga sunset in my old age.

0:10:240:10:29

WH-E-E-E-E!

0:10:300:10:31

I'm terribly sorry!

0:10:310:10:33

And that is why Skunk smells.

0:10:340:10:37

But, Skunk, that smell - it's terrible.

0:10:370:10:41

But it may have its uses.

0:10:410:10:44

WHE-E-E-E-E!

0:10:440:10:45

Phoar, that's smelly!

0:10:450:10:48

Ha, ha, ha!

0:10:480:10:51

-And naughty Baboon...

-Sorry, Skunk, sorry.

0:10:510:10:55

..That's a whole other story.

0:10:550:10:58

Beneath the Tinga sky. Tinga, Tinga!
