You see, there was a time when Leopard didn't have spots. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
Shh, Monkey. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
(No spots at all. And she was very, very shy.) | 0:01:10 | 0:01:14 | |
-There she is, there she is. -Where is she? | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
-She's hidden again. -Ohh! | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
Come on, let's find her. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:22 | |
You see, Leopard didn't feel as special as all the other animals. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
Her coat was as plain as plain can be. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
So Leopard hid herself away. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:01:33 | 0:01:34 | |
-How many spots have you got? -I've got lots. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
Not as many as me. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
When you grow up, you're going to be beautiful cats. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
Oh! | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
Huh! | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
Leopard, is that you? | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
Jambo, Your Majesty. | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
Come out and say hello. It's been a while since I saw you. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
I like it that way, sir. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
But I do wish you a very good day. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
And to you too, Leopard. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
-Ooh, guess who we just saw? -We've just spotted Leopard. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
But Leopard doesn't have any spots. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
Yes, we know, but they just spotted her. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
But Leopard doesn't have any spots, Monkey. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
Oh, Elephant, the monkeys just saw Leopard. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
-You saw Leopard? How exciting. -Where was she? | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
-Near Mama Cheetah. -Come on, come on. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
Let's find her. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
Another beautiful day in Tinga Tinga. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
ANIMALS CHATTER | 0:02:40 | 0:02:41 | |
-Was she over here? -Leopard was over there. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
Oh, no, animals! | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
Ah! Hiss... | 0:02:48 | 0:02:49 | |
-Oh, no, I've just squished Puff Adder. -Oh! | 0:02:49 | 0:02:53 | |
-What do I do now? -Stay calm, everyone. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:58 | |
Now, Elephant, lift up your foot... Slowly now. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
That's it, gently does it. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
Now what do I do? | 0:03:04 | 0:03:05 | |
-RUN! -Run! -Run! -Run, everyone! | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
ALL: Run! Run! | 0:03:09 | 0:03:10 | |
Wait for me! | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
Oh, dear! | 0:03:13 | 0:03:14 | |
I'm squashed and completely out of puff. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:19 | |
-Somebody help me? -Oh, my. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
You're lucky, Elephant. Puff Adder could have bitten you! | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
That was close! Close! | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
I hope he's OK. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:31 | |
PUFF ADDER STRUGGLES | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
Oh, dear. I can't wriggle. Or squiggle! | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
Can some animal help me? | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
Not me. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:40 | |
Mm. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:41 | |
I'll help you, Puff Adder. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
-Leopard?! -Shh! | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
I'll help you if you promise not to bite me. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:50 | |
I promise. I only bite if you frighten me or make me jump. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:56 | |
-Then let's see if we can... lift you up... -Ooh! | 0:03:56 | 0:04:01 | |
-..and just get you back home, OK? -Most kind. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:06 | |
What?! The others will never believe it. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
-I don't believe it. -I don't believe it. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
-I knew you wouldn't! -Puff Adder didn't bite her? -No! | 0:04:12 | 0:04:16 | |
But Puff Adder always bites! | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
Not this time, he didn't. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:19 | |
When Puff Adder feels better, he'll want to bite. I must warn Leopard. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:25 | |
-Can I come? -No. It's dangerous. -But I've never seen Leopard! -No buts. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:32 | |
Oh! | 0:04:32 | 0:04:33 | |
-I'm going to follow Lion. -You can't! -No, Monkey! Don't do it! -I can! | 0:04:33 | 0:04:39 | |
Oh, thank you, Leopard. Very, very kind. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
-Even I'm a little out of puff. -I'm not sure I'll ever puff again. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:51 | |
Course you will. A little food - that's what you need. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
Fill you out a bit. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:56 | |
You would go and find food for me? | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
Of course. Every animal must eat. You'll get your strength back. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:05 | |
-I won't be long. -Remarkable. Such kindness! | 0:05:05 | 0:05:10 | |
RUSTLING | 0:05:12 | 0:05:14 | |
Huh? | 0:05:14 | 0:05:15 | |
-RUSTLING -Monkey? | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
Jambo, Lion. I... I thought you might need some help. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:24 | |
Or get lonely. Or... | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
-Shall I go back to the water hole? -No, it's too far. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:31 | |
-Come on. You better stay with me. -Hee-hee! Good! | 0:05:31 | 0:05:35 | |
Because I can help you find Puff Adder. I'm good at finding things. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:40 | |
How do you feel? | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
I do feel a lot better now. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
I can wriggle. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
HE CHUCKLES | 0:05:55 | 0:05:57 | |
Puffed up again and all rounded! | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:06:00 | 0:06:01 | |
Back to your old self. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
Not quite. There's one more thing. Watch this. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:09 | |
Well, I've never seen that before! | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
Shedding my skin. Mm. It's a special trick of mine. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:24 | |
Now I'm back to my NEW self! | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
Oh, I wish I could have pretty colours and beautiful new skin. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:32 | |
-Is that what you really want? -Mm. My coat is as plain as plain can be! | 0:06:32 | 0:06:38 | |
Maybe this time I can help you. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:42 | |
But you must trust me one more time. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
-would you do that, my friend? -Of course. But how? | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
I need to make a tiny nip on the end of your tail. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:53 | |
Bite me?! But you promised! | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
Ah-ah! It's not a BITE, Leopard. It's a tiny nip. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:01 | |
And it won't hurt. Trust me. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Mm...OK. Sawa. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Did that hurt? | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
Not a bit. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:11 | |
Soon you will have a coat more beautiful than any animal ever seen. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:18 | |
# It's time to sleep | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
# Sleep true, sleep deep | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
# Dream nice, dream long | 0:07:24 | 0:07:30 | |
# I'll sing my song | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
# And watch you while you dream along | 0:07:35 | 0:07:40 | |
# Dream of Tinga | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |
# Dream of spots. # | 0:07:46 | 0:07:50 | |
Well, look at you! | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
SHE GASPS | 0:08:00 | 0:08:01 | |
Oh! My coat! | 0:08:01 | 0:08:05 | |
It's beautiful! It's really, truly beautiful! | 0:08:05 | 0:08:10 | |
I... I don't know what to say! | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
Asante Rafiki. Thank you, dear friend. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
It was my pleasure. One kindness deserves another. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:21 | |
I really must go. I feel the need to wriggle all over Tinga Tinga. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
-Come and see me again, very soon. -I will! | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
Leopard! > | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
Where are you? Leopard? | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
Better wriggle out of their way. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:40 | |
-Leopard? -Where are you? | 0:08:40 | 0:08:42 | |
-Leopard! -Look what I found! Snake slithers! | 0:08:42 | 0:08:47 | |
I told you I'd find Puff Adder! | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
Puff Adder must be better. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
Quickly! We must see if Leopard is all right. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
-Oh! -Leopard! | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
-Leopard! -Leopard? | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
Leopard! | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
Leopard! Are you all right? | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
Jambo, Lion. Jambo, Monkey. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:07 | |
How nice to see you. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
Why are you staring? | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
What's the matter? | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
Leopard, you have changed completely! | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
Your coat! It's beautiful! | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
Does it suit me? | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
-You're even more beautiful than you were before! -Hee-hee! | 0:09:22 | 0:09:26 | |
Oh, thank you, Lion. It's all down to my friend, Puff Adder. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:31 | |
-Puff Adder? -Huh? | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
Yes, I helped him and he repaid me with this beautiful new coat | 0:09:33 | 0:09:38 | |
in his colours. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:39 | |
Leopard! Come and show everyone at the water hole! Please! | 0:09:39 | 0:09:44 | |
No, no, no, Monkey. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:45 | |
You know I like to keep myself to myself. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
But they're the best spots I've ever seen! | 0:09:48 | 0:09:51 | |
The others can see them when they see them. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:55 | |
But you have to come to the water hole! | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
-You have to tell everybody what's happened! -You tell them. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:02 | |
They'll never believe me. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
There. They will now. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
THEY CHUCKLE | 0:10:07 | 0:10:08 | |
Look, Lion! Look! | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
And then I wrestled Puff Adder to the ground. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:15 | |
"Stand back!" I said to Leopard. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
"Stand back!" | 0:10:19 | 0:10:20 | |
-THEY GASP -Really? -Wow! | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
But I wasn't scared! Oh, no, not me! | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
-I wrestled Puff Adder to the ground and then... -Ah-ah! Monkey! | 0:10:25 | 0:10:30 | |
OK, so it wasn't me. Hee-hee. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
It was Puff Adder! | 0:10:33 | 0:10:34 | |
-ALL: Puff Adder?! -No! | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
Puff Adder bit Leopard on the end of her tail | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
and that's why Leopard has spots! | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
-Never! -No! | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
It's true! Look! | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
That's Puff Adder's skin! | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
And what happened to Puff Adder? | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
And Puff Adder shedding his skin? | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
Well, that's a whole other story! | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
Ahh! Ahh! | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
Hee-hee! | 0:10:58 | 0:11:00 | |
