[yawns]
Hey, Flaps. What we gonna do?
F Flaps
I dunno. Whatcha wanna do?
Z Ziggy
I've got it! Let's flap over to the east side of the jungle. They've always got a bit of action, a bit of a swingin' scene, all right!
Aw, come off it. Things are right dead all over.
Z Ziggy
You mean that you wish they were! [They all laugh, except for Dizzy]
OK. So, what we gonna do?
F Flaps
I dunno. What'cha wanna do?
Look, Flaps. First I say, "What we gonna do?" Then you say, "I don't know. What'cha wanna do?" Then I say, "What we gonna do?" Then you say, "Whatcha wanna do?" "What we gonna do? What you want..." Let's do something!
F Flaps
OK. Whatcha wanna do? [Buzzy sighs]
Oh, blimey. There you go again, the same notes again!
Z Ziggy
[snaps his fingers]
I've got it! This time, I've really got it!
So, you got it. So, what we gonna do?
[spots Mowgli approaching]
Hold it, lads. Look! Look what's coming our way.
F Flaps
Hey, what in the world is that?
Z Ziggy
What a crazy-looking bunch of bones.
Yeah, and they're all walking about by themselves! [They all laugh]
So, what are we gonna do?
F Flaps
I dunno--Hey, now, don't start that again!
Z Ziggy
[Pushing the others off the tree]
C'mon, lads. C'mon. Let's have some fun with this little fella. This little blokey!
Why should you run? Could it be possible that you don't know who I am?
I know you, all right. You're Shere Khan.
Precisely. And you should also know that everyone runs from Shere Khan. [pokes Mowgli's chin with his right pointy claw]
[angrily pushes Shere Khan's paw away]
You don't scare me! I won't run from anyone!
Ah, you have spirit for one so small. And such spirit is deserving of a sporting chance. Now, I'm going to close my eyes, and count to 10. It makes the chase more interesting...for me. 1... [Mowgli looks for something to defend himself with as Shere Khan continues counting]...2... [Mowgli spots something and goes over to retrieve it.] ...3... [As Mowgli picks up a stick, Shere Khan begins to suspect something.] ...4... [Mowgli prepares to defend himself] You're trying my patience. [counts faster just as Baloo arrives] 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
[Shere Khan leaps at Mowgli with a loud roar, Mowgli loses all of his nerve at the sight of this fearsome creature; Shere Khan almost catches Mowgli until Baloo grabs him by the tail]
Run, Mowgli, run!
He's got a tiger by the tail, he has!
And he'd better hang on, too!
[Baloo hides beside a tree, but Shere Khan bites him in the butt] [screams in serious pain]
YEOW!!!!
[hitting Shere Khan with a thick twig in serious anger]
Take that, you big bully!
F Flaps
Let 'im 'ave it again, kid! 'it 'im again, kid! Go on!
[Flaps and Buzzy got a hold of Mowgli]
Let go! Baloo needs help!
[suddenly, a thunderclap is heard and lightning strikes a tree, splitting it in half and catches fire]
Fire! That's the only thing that Ol' Stripes is afraid of.
F Flaps
You get the fire, we'll do the rest.
[Mowgli and Bagheera think Baloo is dead.]
Mowgli, try to understand.
Bagheera, what’s the matter with him?
You’ve got to be brave, like Baloo was.
Y-You don’t mean--? Oh, no. Baloo.
Now, now. I know how you feel. But you must remember, Mowgli: "Greater love hath no one than he who lays down his life for his friend." [As the panther speaks, Baloo opens his eyes, alive and well.] When great deeds are remembered in this jungle, one name will stand above all others; our friend Baloo the Bear.
[sniffling]
He’s cracking me up.
The memory of Baloo’s sacrifice and bravery will forever be engraved on our saddened hearts.
This spot where Baloo fell will always be a hallowed place in the jungle, for there lies one of nature’s noblest creatures.
[still sniffling]
I wish that my mother coulda heard this.
It’s best we leave now. Come along, Man-Cub.
Hey, don't stop now, Baghee, you're doin' great! There's more! Lots more!
[sees Baloo still alive and is furious]
WHY, YOU.... BIG.... FRAUD!!!! You.... You-You-You 4-flusher! I-I am fed up!
Baloo! You're all right! [hugs him]
Who, me? Sure, I am! Never felt.... better.
V Vultures
[laughing happily]
[laughs]
You sure had us worried.
Aw, I was just takin' 5. Y'know, like, playin' it cool. Heh! Yeah, but he was too easy.
It's going to be a bit dull without that little bloke, isn't it?
B Buzzie
Yeah. So, what are we gonna do?
F Flaps
I don't know-- Hey, now. Don't start that again!
