What's up with that guy?
Timon
Um, Simba... How can I say this? He's prey.
Pumbaa
Yeah.
Timon
And he is never gonna want to frolic with a carnivore.
Pumbaa
No. You two will never frolic.
Why not?
Timon
You see, in nature, there's a delicate balance.
Oh, yeah. The Circle of Life. I know that.
Pumbaa
Whoa!
Timon
No, no, no, no. I don't know where you're getting "circle" from.
Pumbaa
No, yeah. There's no Circle of Life.
Timon
No, it's no circle.
Pumbaa
No, not at all.
Timon
In fact, it's the opposite.
Pumbaa
Yeah.
Timon
It's a line.
Pumbaa
Yeah.
Timon
It's a meaningless life of indifference.
Pumbaa
And we are all just running towards the end of the line. And then, one day, we will reach the end, and that will be it.
Timon
That's it.
Pumbaa
Line over.
Timon
Nothing.
Pumbaa
Nada. And you can really just kinda do your own thing...
Woo-hoo!
Pumbaa
...and fend for yourself 'cause your line doesn't affect anyone else's lines.
Timon
You're alive, and then, you're not. Like this guy. [eats a termite] Mmm.
You sure it's not circle? That we're all connected?
Pumbaa
A circle would mean we're all this. That would mean what I do affects him, affects that thing...
Timon
Yeah. No.
Pumbaa
...affects that thing...
Timon
That's not how it goes.
Pumbaa
...which would make doing whatever we wanted not that cool.
Timon
Let me simplify this for you. Life is meaningless.
Pumbaa
Yes. That's why you just gotta look out for yourself. That's why you do you, Simba.
Timon
Yeah, Simba, for the first time, we're entrusting you to make a plan for us today.
Pumbaa
This is so important. Just think about all you have been taught.
Timon
What do you wanna do?
Absolutely... [brings his weight down on the termite mound] nothing. [the termite mound breaks in half, spilling termites everywhere]
Pumbaa
Exactly!
Timon
Woo-hoo!
Pumbaa
He gets it.
Jackpot!
Out of my way. Out of my way.
Crunchy!
All right. It’s time to eat.
