Ah, Pumbaa — look at that little guy. A chip off the old block! And you gotta know who's going to raise 'im.
Pumbaa His parents?
Okay, sure, get technical. But who's gonna teach him the really important stuff? Like how to belch... [belches] ...and dig for grubs? I'm telling ya, buddy, it's gonna be like old times. You, me, and the little guy!
It is a girl.
Girl?! [faint] Oy!
Tango-Charlie-Alpha. What's your position?
Pumbaa Uh... upright, head turned slightly to the left, tail erect.
Wow! [starts to bound down Pride Rock.]
Whoa! [catches Kiara by her scruff and lifts her back onto Pride Rock; she giggles mischievously, and tries to bound away, but Simba stops her with a paw.] Where do you think you're going in such a hurry? [lifts Kiara into the air.]
Well, I just want you to be careful. [Kiara growls and jumps at a butterfly, but fails to catch it when he steps on Kiara's tail; she tries to jump, only to get stopped] Kiara, are you listening? Accidents can happen. [Kiara sits up] You could easily get hurt or stepped--
Hurt or stepped on or even get lost.
And remember, [steps off Kiara's tail.] I want you to stay in sight of Pride Rock at all times.
At all times. I know. And if I see any strangers, don't talk to them. Come straight home. Okay, okay. Can I go now? [smiles pleadingly] Please?
Hmm. [Nala approaches and sits next to Simba.] Very funny.
And stay away from the Outlands.
Zazu's right. [looks over one shoulder.] You can't turn your back on them.
Really? How come?
Never mind. [gestures with his head.] Just run along now.
But, Dad, I--
You'll understand someday. Go on.
And stay on the path I've marked for you.
She's just like you were when you were young. [nuzzles Simba's chin]
Exactly. Do you realize the dangers we put ourselves in? [Nala pins Simba to the ground, and he grunts]
You mean the dangers you put us in. [nuzzles Simba and they both purr; chuckles] She'll be fine. [strides toward the interior of Pride Rock. She smiles at Simba over one shoulder.]
Hey, Timon. [gestures with his head] Pumbaa. Come here.
Good morning, Mon Capitán.
I want you to keep a close watch on Kiara. You know she's bound to run off.
No worries, Simba. We're on her like stink on a warthog.
Pumbaa Hey!
It's a hard truth, Pumbaa. Live with it.
Guys, I'm counting on you. [looks left and right] Danger could be lurking behind every rock.
Ah-ha. [looks left] Hmm! [looks right] Hmm! Hmm.
[Timon and Pumbaa depart to go after her]
Whoa! Cool. The Outlands. I wonder what's out there. [Timon and Pumbaa are in the grass sneaking up toward Kiara. Once she turns back, she, Timon, and Pumbaa accidentally scream at each other, which makes them continue to scream in terror and fear, that inadvertently make her frightened during the huge fright, move backward from her babysitters, and fall in a pond from the startle, much to her babysitters' shock, causing her to step off the ledge, then tumble helplessly into the lake, yelping, causing them to move forward for mistakenly startling her in the process and sending her plummeting into the pool below]
Pumbaa Oh, don't worry, Kiara! Uncle Pumbaa's coming! [jumps into the river after her]
Oh, no! Ohh! Alright, let's see. Uh, [rehearsing the confession to Simba] "Gee, Simba. The good news is, we found your daughter. The bad news is, we dropped the warthog on her. Is there a problem with that?"
Pumbaa Kiara? Kiara?
Pumbaa! Let me define...babysitting! [Pumbaa moves out of the way to show Kiara coughing until she stops and looks angrily at him]
Pumbaa Sorry.
Pumbaa Oh, Timon, [Many birds perch atop Pumbaa's back.] I'm gettin' tired. I gotta lose some pounds.
[Timon climbs onto Pumbaa's snout and shoos away the birds.] Timon: Shoo! Go on! Shoo! Shoo!
Pumbaa Hey, maybe [Pumbaa jerks his head at Kovu.] he could help! [Pumbaa looks expectantly at Timon, who is standing on his back.] D'ya think?
Shoo! [to Pumbaa] Oh, yeah, there's an idea. [Timon leans one elbow against Pumbaa's face.] Right. Let the vicious Outsider... [Timon straightens, grinning.] Hey, wait! [Timon points triumphantly at the sky.] I have an idea! [Timon hops to the ground and gestures to Kovu.] What if he helps?
Pumbaa What?
*laugh*
Whoa, whoa, whoa! [enthusiastically] Yeehaw!
*laugh* [Kovu, Kiara, Timon, and Pumbaa look up and notice a herd of rhinoceroses in their path. The birds have alighted on the rhinoceroses' backs. The friends screech and skid to a halt.] *screams*
Pumbaa Uh...
Uh-oh.
*blow raspberries*
*snort angrily*
*scream*
Whoa!
Whoa!
Hey, rhino!
*grunt*
Why, I oughta. Let me at him, let me at him! Here, hold me back.
Pumbaa Okay.
Let me at him, let me at him!
Pumbaa Okay! [he lets go of Timon's tail]
Pumbaa Oh.
I can't believe we lost her again. This is the 8,000th time!
Pumbaa Ooh!
Pumbaa "Me"?! You were going to watch her.
I thought you were going to watch her!
Pumbaa No, you were going to watch her!
YOU WERE GOING TO WATCH HER!
Pumbaa OH, WATCH THIS! [leaps onto Timon]
OW! [tackles at Pumbaa and starts pulling his skin] TAKE THAT, YOU CREEPY WARTHOG! SAY IT!
Pumbaa FAT!
SAY IT!
Pumbaa FAT! FATTY...FAT...FAT!
Pumbaa Hippo-thetically.
Very hypothetical. There's this guy.
Pumbaa But he's not a lion.
No, no. He's not a lion. Yes, he's definitely not a lion. And, uh, uh, his daughter, um, say, vanished.
Sire! The Outsiders are on the attack, heading this way! It's war!
Zazu, find Kiara! [to Timon and Pumbaa] We'll assemble the lionesses. Move, now!
Pumbaa What do we do? What do we do?!
There's only one thing we can do, Pumbaa. "When they going gets tough, they tough get going." That's our motto!
Pumbaa I thought our motto was "Hakuna Matata"?
Pumbaa, stop living in the past! We need the new motto. [Timon and Pumbaa run screaming into the battle, trying to appear as menacing as they can. They are stopped short by the snarling lioness; they turn while screaming again and run back the way they came] Like I said: LET'S GET GOIN'!!!!!!!!
*snarl*
*pant* [Timon and Pumbaa smack into a rock wall. They turn to face the Outsiders, cornered.] *shriek*
*growl*
*whimper*
Pumbaa *whimpers*
*chuckles deviously* [Timon jumps onto Pumbaa's butt and **** Pumbaa's tail like it's a gun. He levels it at the Outsiders.] Don't anybody move!
*growl*
This thing's loaded. [Pumbaa looks over one shoulder at Timon.] I'll let ya have it!
Yeah. Yeah! *cackles* Huh! [Timon spins Pumbaa's tail idly.] Talk about your winds of war.
Pumbaa I love moments like this.
Yeah.
Love! Not "like", "LOVE"! [they start crying, and Zazu covers himself]
[Simba and Nala stand and stride past the lionesses, who bow as they pass. Kovu and Kiara follow. Simba and Nala reach the edge of the promontory, followed by Kovu and Kiara. At first Simba roars, then Kovu roars as well, then Simba, Nala, Kiara and Kovu are roaring. A large crowd of Pride Landers are gathered below Pride Rock; the pride starts roaring.]
