Ranjan [beats Kaa repeatedly with a stick for trying to eat Shanti]
Bad snake! Bad snake! Bad snake! Bad snake! Bad snake!
Ranjan? What are you doing here?
Ranjan Bad snake, bad snake! You leave Shanti alone!

4 scenes Ranjan Ranjan 
[Mowgli finds Shanti and Ranjan, both of whom look scared by something]
There you are! I'm so sorry. Will you let me explain?
[Shanti nervously points at something behind Mowgli; he turns around and gasps when he sees Shere Khan lurking in the shadows, he approaches the children]
You seem surprised to see me, man-cub. I can't imagine why. I wasn't going to let you get away with what you did to me. You see, you humiliated me, man-cub. Surely you do realize I simply can't let you live.
[Shanti and Ranjan flee the area. Mowgli turns to face Shere Khan and throws dust in his face before running for it]
Oh, you're going to try and outrun me. How droll!
[catches up with Shanti and Ranjan]
Come on! This way! [Behind them, Shere Khan gives chase with a snarl; Mowgli, Shanti, and Ranjan climb over a log to some bushes] All right. Stay here!
Mowgli, no! [Shere Khan leaps over the log with a roar; Shanti and Ranjan hide in the bushes] Ranjan, wait here. I gotta go help Mowgli!
Ranjan But I wanna help Mowgli too!
No! I'll be right back. I promise. Don't move. [Shanti goes after Mowgli. Ranjan is still determined to help, and gets his loincloth caught on a branch; he is thrown backwards and comes face-to-face with Baloo. He panics and tries to run. Baloo picks him up by the loincloth.]
Whoa, whoa. Hold still. Calm down, kid. Now, where's Mowgli?
Ranjan Shere Khan!
[shocked]
Shere Khan? Hold on! [puts Ranjan on his shoulders and hurries to the rescue. Meanwhile, Mowgli is still running as fast as he can, but stops when he comes to a lava lake surrounding an ancient temple.]
Whoa! [Mowgli looks at the lava nervously and looks back when he hears Shere Khan roar behind him; he jumps across and barely grabs onto the other side. He looks back just in time to see Shere Khan appear and quickly climbs up and races up the stairs. Shere Khan gets across with an effortless running jump. Mowgli enters the temple looking for a place to hide.]
[laughing evilly]
No matter how fast you can run, no matter where you can hide, I will catch you. [Shere Khan climbs up the stairs as Mowgli hides behind a gong, hyperventilating.] Come out, come out, wherever you are. [In the jungle, Bagheera climbs down from a tree branch and hears Ranjan's voice]
Ranjan Hurry! Hurry! Faster, faster! [Bagheera sees Ranjan]
Oh, no! Not another Man-cub!
Ranjan Can't you go any faster? [Bagheera then sees that Ranjan is riding on Baloo's shoulders]
Mowgli's in trouble!
Ranjan And Shanti, too!
Who's Shanti? [Meanwhile, Shanti has just reached the temple and leaps across the lava before hurrying inside. She reacts with horror upon seeing Shere Khan looking around for Mowgli. She desperately looks for a place to hide. Baloo, Ranjan, and Bagheera arrive at the temple mere seconds later.]
Take the kid, Baggy! I'll help Mowgli!
Baloo, be careful!
Ranjan [first lines; Indian music playing]
Hey, Mowgli!
Shh. Ranjan, hush. It's starting.
Ranjan's Father: [laughs] Come, children. [Ranjan chuckles] Come watch. [to Mowgli] Mowgli, tell us your story.
[Fire goes on]
I never knew where I came from, but I always knew where I belonged. [Title card, The Jungle Book 2] This is me and Bagheera, the panther who found me in the jungle. He's a good friend of mine, but my best friend of all was good old Papa Bear.
A bear?!
Man. We had some crazy times together. And when the monkeys grabbed me things got really crazy.
Ranjan Monkey! Go, Papa Bear!
Then I came face to face with the meanest, scariest tiger in the whole jungle, Shere Khan.
Ranjan [roaring]
You stay away from Mowgli, you mean old tiger or I'll tie some fire to your tail and burn your butt! Yaah! [rips the blanket]
Ranjan's Mother: Ranjan!
Ranjan [Mowgli looked up with the puppet show was finished]
Whoa! Uhh!
Ranjan [muffled roaring]
[Shanti giggles, and Ranjan's Father laughing at Ranjan] Ranjan's Mother: Oh, Ranjan.
Ranjan I got him, Mowgli. Did you see? I got him.
You sure did, Ranjan... but it's gonna be kind of hard to finish the story now.
Ranjan But we all know how it ends. Shanti blinks her big beautiful brown eyes at you, and you follow her into our village.
I did not.
Did so.
Something was in my eye.
Both of them?
Well, you were so ugly you made my eyes water.
Well, you...
Ranjan's Father: Ha, ha! Now, now. We give thanks for Shanti's beautiful brown eyes. Without them, Mowgli would never have found his way into our lives. Come to think of it, you used the same trick on me.
Ranjan's Mother: And you still fall for it.
[They happily laughing] Shanti's Mother: Thank you for a wonderful story, Mowgli.
Goodnight, Mowgli. [she got beautiful blinking eyelashes at Mowgli]
Night, Shanti. Watch out for Shere Khan on your way home.
You and your stories. Everyone know tigers don't come into the village.
Ranjan [roars]
Tigers go wherever they want!
Aah!
Shanti's Mother: Ooh! [chuckles] Goodnight, boys.
Ranjan Um...
Mowgli and Ranjan
Nothing.
Ranjan's Mother: Aha. Well, then, you will need plenty of rest... For doing nothing tomorrow. Off to bed.
Ranjan [yawns]
Ah, we never get to stay up late.
Ranjan's Father: [picking Ranjan up] Ha, ha! Even wild beasts need their sleep. [Ranjan roaring at his Father] Oh, help! Ferocious tiger!
[Parents laughing] Ranjan's Mother: Ah, goodnight, my little wild thing. [kisses Ranjan's head]
Ranjan's Father: [hugging Mowgli with his chest] Goodnight, Mowgli. Happy dreams.
Um, goodnight... sir.
Ranjan Why do you always call him "Sir"? His name's "Pop".
[Ranjan's Father put his fire and fire pit on the lid and cover it, and fade to black.]
Hi, kid. Mind if I drop in?
Baloo? Oh, Baloo...
Shhh.
Papa Bear. Am I glad to see you. What are you doing here?
What am I doing here? Feeling right for the first time in a while, that's what. Hey, kid. Show me you can still fight like a bear. Come on. [Mowgli punches on his belly] Oh, Little Britches, you lost your touch.
Mowgli, I've got something for you. Mowgli, it's me. Don't be mad. I get grounded all the time.
Ah.
Mowgli, I'm sorry you got in trouble.
Come on, man cub. Show yourself.
Come on!
Whoa!
Mowgli?
Come on. Stick and move.
[sees Baloo catching Mowgli and playing with him, thinking he is threatening her man cub and not knowing they're friends, shocked and frightened]
Aaahhh! Help! Wild animal! There's a wild animal in the village!
What?! Wild animal? Where? Come on, let's get out of here.
HELP!
Villager
What?! Where is it?!
What's that bear doing here?
There's a wild animal in the village!
Ranjan's Father: What is the matter?
Villager
There he is.
Villager
It's a tiger!
Where are you going? No, come back! Come back! You're going the wrong way!
Ranjan Whoa! A tiger! [roars]
Villager
Don't let him get away.
No! Please...
We gotta get out of here!
Villager
Shanti, get indoors.
No, no, no. He's over... No! [groans in frustration, then quickly grabs a torch and bravely follows them]
