-I'll tell you why...

0:00:550:01:00

No! No! They're not short!

0:01:030:01:05

HE LAUGHS Come here, Monkey!

0:01:050:01:09

THEY LAUGH

0:01:090:01:10

As you can see...

0:01:100:01:13

there was a time when Hyena didn't have short legs

0:01:130:01:17

and he didn't walk all funny.

0:01:170:01:19

Funny, eh?

0:01:190:01:21

Hee hee hee! Oh!

0:01:210:01:24

Hyena, it's not funny to nip animals bottoms!

0:01:240:01:27

Ho ho ho! Yes it is!

0:01:270:01:30

-Come here, I'm going to get you!

-Hyena! What's wrong with you?

0:01:300:01:34

Run, Monkey, run! He's behind you!

0:01:340:01:36

I know he's behind me!

0:01:360:01:39

THEY ALL GIGGLE

0:01:390:01:40

-He'll never get me!

-Careful, Monkey, don't tease Hyena too much.

0:01:400:01:45

Why would any animal want to bite another animal's bottom? Yuk!

0:01:450:01:50

-Heh heh heh!

-Ha ha!

0:01:500:01:51

While Hyena is busy chasing Monkey, let's get a drink. I'm thirsty.

0:01:510:01:56

Mm-hmm. Me too.

0:01:560:01:57

-Ha ha ha ha!

-You'll never catch me!

0:01:590:02:02

Next time I will! Ha ha ha!

0:02:040:02:06

Oh, no, you won't!

0:02:060:02:08

CLONK! Ow!

0:02:080:02:09

Oh!

0:02:090:02:11

Ha ha ha ha ha!

0:02:110:02:12

THEY ALL GIGGLE

0:02:120:02:14

Oh!

0:02:140:02:15

This is too good to be true!

0:02:150:02:18

So many bottoms,

0:02:180:02:21

but which one shall I choose?

0:02:210:02:25

Oh, oh, Elephant?

0:02:250:02:28

No, no, too chewy.

0:02:280:02:31

Tortoise? No, too crunchy.

0:02:310:02:35

Oh, Flamingo! Ugh, no, too pink.

0:02:350:02:39

Ah! Porcupine!

0:02:390:02:41

No, too spiky.

0:02:410:02:43

Now that IS a bottom!

0:02:450:02:48

-Hippo, be careful! Hyena's about to bite your...

-Ow!

0:02:480:02:53

Ha ha ha!

0:02:530:02:54

Hyena, get back here right now!

0:02:540:02:57

That was the biggest and the best bottom ever! Ha ha!

0:02:570:03:02

So now, who is next?

0:03:020:03:06

What is that I see?

0:03:060:03:08

It's the ugliest and the grumpiest bottom in all of Tinga Tinga.

0:03:080:03:14

It's Warthog's bottom.

0:03:140:03:16

Ow!

0:03:160:03:18

Enough is enough.

0:03:180:03:21

-THEY ALL TALK

-OK, calm down. All right, all right.

0:03:210:03:24

You are all right. Hyena cannot go on like this.

0:03:240:03:29

Somebody should put their foot down.

0:03:290:03:31

Preferably Elephant -

0:03:310:03:33

on top of Hyena!

0:03:330:03:34

If only Hyena would fall down a large hole

0:03:340:03:38

-and not get out.

-Oh, now that IS a good idea, Warthog.

0:03:380:03:43

Your majesty, if Warthog here dug a big hole for Hyena to fall into,

0:03:430:03:49

we could leave him there until he promised

0:03:490:03:52

never to bite anyone's bottom ever again.

0:03:520:03:55

Ha! That's brilliant.

0:03:550:03:57

And how do we get Hyena to fall into the hole?

0:03:570:04:00

We need a bottom.

0:04:000:04:02

-Uh-uh!

-Uh-uh!

0:04:020:04:04

-Not me!

-I'll do it. I'll do it!

0:04:050:04:08

Hyena will never catch me.

0:04:080:04:09

OK, brave little monkey, this is what we are going to do.

0:04:090:04:13

THEY WHISPER

0:04:130:04:15

-Hyena's coming!

-Sh, sh.

0:04:190:04:22

Ha ha! So now, who's next?

0:04:220:04:26

Coo-ee! Hyena!

0:04:260:04:28

You'll never get me!

0:04:280:04:29

Oh, yes I will!

0:04:290:04:32

Oh, no you won't. Hee hee.

0:04:320:04:34

Oh, yes I will. Ha ha!

0:04:340:04:36

Oh!

0:04:380:04:40

Na na na-na na!

0:04:400:04:41

UNK!

0:04:410:04:42

-Oh!

-Do do do-do do! Ha ha ha!

0:04:420:04:45

We're going to need a bigger hole.

0:04:450:04:48

-And a much, much bigger bottom.

-Hippo.

0:04:480:04:51

But he's already bitten my bottom!

0:04:510:04:54

But if we all dig an even bigger hole,

0:04:540:04:56

Hyena will never get near your bottom again.

0:04:560:05:00

And it is a very fine bottom, Hippo.

0:05:000:05:02

Oh, all right.

0:05:020:05:05

-Mm-hmm.

-Wow!

-Excellent work, everyone.

0:05:050:05:08

Thank you, your majesty.

0:05:080:05:10

Ready and waiting, your majesty.

0:05:100:05:13

Quick, hide, Hyena's coming!

0:05:130:05:17

Ho ho! I'm so clever.

0:05:170:05:19

-Hyena!

-Oh!

0:05:190:05:21

Come and get it.

0:05:210:05:23

Hmm, oh!

0:05:230:05:25

The biggest bottom in Tinga Tinga.

0:05:250:05:29

-Ha ha!

-Oh!

0:05:310:05:32

THUD!

0:05:320:05:33

-Mm-hmm, now we've got you.

-THEY CHUCKLE

0:05:330:05:39

Hyena, nobody is going to help you out of that hole

0:05:390:05:43

-until you promise to stop biting.

-I... I...

0:05:430:05:48

No! No, it's no good. Ha! It's such fun, I cannot promise that.

0:05:480:05:53

Well, you can just stay down there then.

0:05:530:05:58

Yeah, Hyena, chew on that for a change.

0:05:590:06:03

Hello! Jambo!

0:06:060:06:11

-Can somebody help me out of this hole, please?

-Hyena?

0:06:110:06:15

What are you doing down there?

0:06:150:06:17

I just bit a few bottoms, that's all.

0:06:170:06:20

Ah. I'll help you out of that hole

0:06:200:06:24

if you promise me one thing.

0:06:240:06:26

Oh, not you too.

0:06:260:06:29

You must promise to bite Lion's bottom.

0:06:290:06:33

I would be delighted! Ha ha ha!

0:06:330:06:36

Ha ha ha!

0:06:390:06:40

Asante, Jackal. Thank you.

0:06:400:06:43

Hyena, remember your promise.

0:06:430:06:46

Oh yes, I will. Ha ha ha!

0:06:460:06:50

SNORING

0:06:510:06:56

A royal bottom.

0:06:580:07:00

Ha ha ha! Oh dear, oh dear.

0:07:000:07:03

A sleeping bottom of a king?

0:07:030:07:06

Oh no, you wouldn't dare, Hyena, would you?

0:07:060:07:09

Do you know? I think I would!

0:07:090:07:11

Oh, you wouldn't! I would, you know. I might just take a tiny little bite

0:07:110:07:15

-out of there!

-Ow!

-Ha ha ha ha!

0:07:150:07:18

-Hyena!

-I did it!

0:07:180:07:20

That will be your very last bite. Wanyama! Animals!

0:07:200:07:24

We need a bigger hole.

0:07:240:07:27

So, how's this for a big hole?

0:07:290:07:31

It's a very long way to the bottom.

0:07:310:07:36

We don't want Hyena to hurt himself.

0:07:360:07:38

-Yes, we do!

-No, we don't!

0:07:380:07:41

Oh! Must be my lucky day.

0:07:410:07:45

-Ha ha ha!

-It's too deep, let's find another hole.

0:07:450:07:48

-Come on, let's find somewhere else.

-Ha ha ha!

0:07:480:07:52

-Ha ha ha ha!

-Whoa!

0:07:520:07:56

Ow!

0:07:580:08:00

Oh! SQUELCH!

0:08:030:08:04

-Oh!

-Oi! Get me out of here!

0:08:040:08:08

I suppose we have to help him.

0:08:080:08:10

Ah, Hippo, a moment please.

0:08:100:08:14

Hyena, we will help you, but only if you promise

0:08:140:08:19

never to bite anyone's bottom ever again? You promise?

0:08:190:08:23

Oh. Oh...

0:08:230:08:26

All right, then. I promise.

0:08:260:08:28

Good. Now we are going to make

0:08:280:08:31

an animal chain and together we will pull you out.

0:08:310:08:34

Let's start with Elephant at the back there.

0:08:340:08:38

-Tortoise.

-I'm all right!

0:08:380:08:41

Now Hippo, then Flamingo. Yes, your majesty. Porcupine

0:08:410:08:45

and Warthog. That's it, well done. That's it, that's it.

0:08:450:08:49

-Ha ha ha!

-Here, Hyena.

-Oh!

0:08:500:08:53

-One, two, three...pull.

-Oh, not again!

0:08:530:08:56

Pull!

0:08:580:08:59

ALL: Pull!

0:08:590:09:02

-Pull!

-Pull!

0:09:020:09:04

Pull!

0:09:040:09:05

Come on, Monkeys, you can do it. That's it.

0:09:080:09:11

Pull!

0:09:110:09:12

Ha ha ha!

0:09:120:09:15

Is it just me or are my front legs getting longer and longer?

0:09:150:09:21

Don't be silly, Hyena! Pull!

0:09:210:09:25

Pull!

0:09:250:09:26

One very big last pull!

0:09:260:09:31

ALL: Pull!

0:09:310:09:33

Pull!

0:09:330:09:35

Um, are you all right, Hyena?

0:09:400:09:43

Oh, oh.

0:09:430:09:46

Oh, Hyena, you've got long legs in the front,

0:09:460:09:51

-and short legs at the back.

-Ha ha! So I have!

0:09:510:09:56

-They look funny.

-So they do!

0:09:560:09:58

THEY GIGGLE

0:09:580:09:59

Just try walking, Hyena.

0:09:590:10:01

Oh.

0:10:010:10:02

THEY GIGGLE

0:10:040:10:05

Ha ha ha! Look at my funny walk!

0:10:090:10:12

THEY ALL LAUGH

0:10:120:10:14

That is so funny. Ha ha ha!

0:10:140:10:18

That's because you've got long legs at the front from when we pulled.

0:10:180:10:23

And short legs at the back from when you fell!

0:10:230:10:26

And that's why Hyena has short back legs.

0:10:260:10:29

-Ho ho ha!

-But it didn't stop him laughing!

0:10:290:10:32

THEY ALL LAUGH

0:10:320:10:35

Serves you right, Hyena, biting everyone's bottom like that.

0:10:350:10:39

I don't know what you're laughing at with that ugly face of yours!

0:10:390:10:44

Ugly?! What do you mean ugly? Me?

0:10:440:10:48

Come on! Hey, would you call this face ugly?

0:10:480:10:51

Um...well...

0:10:510:10:53

And Warthog and his ugly face? Well, that's a whole other story.
