badou:
monkeyville dead ahead,
captain king papi, sir!

Babar:
good job, badou.

Listen! You can hear monkeys
practicing

For the sing-a-ling contest.

Monkeys:
♪ toe-tail-tree-flip-
swing-land-free-toe! ♪

♪ mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-monkey ♪

Thumpin'!

How are you and nana
going to pick a winner?

It'll be hard.

Most monkeys
have lovely voices.

[loud vicious roar]

Babar:
sleek may disagree
with you, love.

Celeste:
well, sleek is
a beautiful singer too.

Monkeys singing
day and night!

They're driving me crazy!

Three young monkeys:
♪ banana pop! ♪
[Pop, pop, pop]

♪ Makes me wanna hop! ♪
[Hop, hop, hop]

♪ Ooh, banana peel ♪
[peel, peel, peel]

♪ makes me wanna squeal! ♪

♪ Monkeys march left ♪

♪ Monkeys march right ♪

♪ Monkeys march
all the day and night ♪

♪ But our boots-boots-boots
boots fit too tight ♪

[Laughing]

General huc: [rap]
♪ buh-buh-buh-big king b ♪

♪ I'm a-welcomin' thee
and your pretty queenie ♪

♪ To sing-a-ling contest
in the land o' monkey! ♪

♪ Yeee-ah! ♪

Babar:
♪ thank you, h-u-c, ♪

♪ For coming down
from that tree ♪

♪ And a-welcoming
we happy elephants three ♪

Ha! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!

[Laughing]

Badou:
nana, I'm gonna find chiku.

See you later,
general huc.

Bye,
buh-buh-buh-big king b.

Ha! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ah!

[Singing off-key]
♪ might tweet and siiiiing ♪

♪ But there's nobody- ♪
[stops abruptly]

Hey, 'bu.
Hi, 'bu.

Did you hear me
singing?

Yeah.
You, um, sound...

Terrible!

Do your best
and try again.

[Off-key]
♪ birds on wing! ♪

chiku and quinzee:
♪ might tweet and sing! ♪

Quinzee:
♪ but there's no better thing
than a monkey swing! ♪

Great song, chiku.

I think I'll sing it
at the contest.

That melody medal
is gonna be mine. Yes!

I'm not gonna enter
the contest.

I've tried practicing.

I've tried singing scales.

I've tried everything, 'bu.

Everything?

Maybe you just need
a bit of coaching.

C'mon!
Let's go ask your dad.

My dad?

Zephyr:
♪ I dance the treetop tangooo ♪

♪ The leaf fandangooo ♪

♪ I eat papayas and mangoooes
with my toes! ♪

Chiku:
yeah... We don't want
to ask my dad.

Badou:
let's go ask
my papi and nana.

Celeste:
I'm sorry, dear,

But as judges we can't offer
any singing tips.

That would be unfair.

Babar:
why don't you try
ms. Strich?

Ms. Strich:
chiku, I would be muy delighted
to instruct you

In the art of song!

Et voila!

to understand the history
of song,

you must first go
far back in time

to the history of birds!

Three young monkeys:
♪ banana pop ♪
[pop, pop, pop]

♪ Makes me wanna hop! ♪
[Hop, hop, hop]

What are you doing,
papi?

I'm just enjoying the song,
badou.

Why the long trunk?

I couldn't find anyone
to help chiku with her singing.

She and I asked everyone
everywhere.

Everywhere is
a pretty big place.

Badou:
you're gonna drop out
of the contest?

I don't want to.

I want to learn how to sing -
I always have.

But I need help,

And we asked everybody
everywhere!

Badou:
my papi says
everywhere is a big place.

Hmm...

I just had a tusktastic idea!

I know somebody
with a beautiful voice

We haven't asked yet!
Come on!

Chiku:
you want sleek to teach me?

She hates it
when we go into her jungle!

Badou:
we're not really going
into her jungle;

We're staying over it.

And it doesn't hurt to ask,
does it?

Sleek:
♪ the face I see before me ♪

♪ So wise and calm
and bright ♪

♪ It chases off
the rain clouds ♪

♪ And makes a dawn of night ♪

♪ Its smile is more precious ♪

♪ Than jewels or golden stone ♪

Chiku:
[off-key]
♪ alooooone! ♪

[Snarling]

Badou and chiku:
whooaaa! Agghhh!

[Air hisses]

Whoaaa!

Badou:
we have to get back
in the air!

Keep and eye out
for sleek!

No sign, 'bu,
but she'es sneaky.

She could be-
[low growling nearby]

[Ferocious snarl]

Agghhhh!

Badou and chiku:
agghhh! Wahhhhh!

Aghhhh!

Whoa!

Badou:
chiku, sing!

[Off-key]
♪ birds on wiiiiing! ♪

Monkeys singing
day and night!

Night and day!

I haven't slept in days!

Badou:
that's it!

Sleek, what if I came up
with a way

That you wouldn't have to listen
to the monkeys?

Sleek:
what do you want,
tame towner?

Badou:
teach chiku how to sing.

What? Impossible!

Badou:
I guess she'll just have
to practice on her own then.

[Clears her throat]

[Off-key]
♪ but there's no better thing! ♪

Agh! All right!
All right! I'll do it!

Feet apart!
Shoulders back!

Straighten that tail!

[Deep inhale]
oof!

Don't suck in air
like a toad.

Breathe in and sing!

Chiku:
[slightly off-key]
♪ tweet and siing! ♪

♪ But there's no better thing
than a monkey swiiiiing ♪

She already sounds better.

Oof!

[Inhales deeply]

Oof!

♪ Might tweet and sing ♪

♪ But there's no better thing
than a monkey swing ♪

♪ The buzzing bees
and hopping fleas... ♪

Monkeys always sing
about trees

And swinging
and bananas.

You should pick
something fresh.

I like the song
you were singing.

Will you teach me?

My alone song?

♪♪

♪ The face I see before me ♪

♪ So wise and calm

Badou:
chiku, you sound good.

Sleek:
she's the best she can be
with so little time.

I'm a brilliant teacher.

Badou:
thanks, sleek.
Here.

These will keep you
from hearing the monkeys.

Come on, we need to get back
for the contest.

Three young monkeys:
♪ banana split ♪
[split, split, split]

♪ Makes me throw a fit! ♪
[Fit, fit, fit]

♪ Oooh, banana cream ♪
[cream, cream, cream]

♪ Is a craaaaazy dream! ♪

♪ Ooooh-wahhhhh! ♪

♪ Ooooooh! ♪

[Cheering and applause]

Celeste:
I wonder where badou
and chiku are.

Chiku's up soon.

[Sputtering]

Chiku:
the blimpaloon has lost
too much air, 'bu.

It can't carry us both.

You take it
and get to the contest.

I'm not leaving you alone
in the deep jungle.

Sleek:
all my brilliant teaching
will go to waste

If you don't sing!

Chiku:
whoa!

Zephyr:
♪ I dance the treetop tangooo ♪

♪ The leaf fandangooo ♪

♪ I eat papayas and mangoes
with my toes! ♪

[Cheering]

Quinzee:
♪ birds on wing ♪

♪ The buzzing bees

♪ Well they can't swing
like mee-ee ♪

♪ Through the monkey trees! ♪

[Applause]
bravo!

Quinzee:
nobody else?

I'll be taking my medal now.

[Sleek snarls]

Whaaaaa!

[Panicked screaming]

[trumpeting]

Babar:
everybody! Settle down.

Chiku has brought a guest.

Welcome.

Badou:
sleek is here to sing
a song with chiku.

[Roars]

Show them how brilliant
a teacher you are.

Go on, chiku.

You don't have to always
be the best

As long as you give it
your best try.

Chiku and sleek:

[Cheering and applause]

Babar:
the reaction of the crowd
makes it clear.

The winners of
the monkeyville sing-a-ling

Are chiku and sleek!

[Crowd cheers and applauds,
sleek growls]

I guess sleek isn't ready
to make friends

With everyone yet...

Though you children
may have started something.

Badou:
ready, chiku?
Medals away!

[Leafs rustle]

Ungh!

Banana peel peril!

Hi-yah!

Tusktastic move!
Thanks, munroe.

You're the future king,
bu,

And I'm your future
loyal bodyguard.

It's my job
to keep you safe! Ha!

Whoa!

[Gasps]

Grass att*ck!
Duck, bu!

Huh?
[Splat]

Dilash:
[laughs]
what a badoufus!

Some bodyguard you are,
dorkupine!

Sorry, bu.

I should've been there
for you!

You were.

You warned me,
but I was so surprised

I didn't duck
fast enough.

I can't let
that happen again!

You need to be ready
for when I'm not here.

Hi-yah! Hup! Ho!

Hi-yah!

badou:
nits and gnats!

Why'd you do that?

And why are you in
your quillinator suit?

Munroe:
I'm training you to be ready
for when danger strikes

And I'm not here!

Hi-yah! Hi-yah! Ho!

Badou:
okay, but how are you going
to do that?

Munroe?

Agggghhhhh!

Munroe:
by sneaking up on you.
Hi-yah!

Babar:
is everything all right?

You seem nervous.

I'm watching out
for munroe, papi.

He's training me
to be ready for danger,

Anytime, anywhere.

Well, it is a good idea
to expect the unexpected.

[Splat]

Zephyr:
I'll get you next time, babar!

Babar:
you can try, zephyr,

But I'll be ready for you,
old friend!

[Laughing]

Hiii-yaaaah!

You weren't ready,
bu!

Ungh... No,

But I will be next time,
munroe.

munroe?

zephyr:
[splat] gotcha!

Zephyr and babar:
[laugh]

It looks like our friends

Have some surprises
planned for us today.

We'd better keep our eyes
and ears open!

Monkey mate:
yo ho, snaggle-eye!

Babar's palace be dead ahead!

Snaggle-eye:
arrr, monkey mate.

It be full of treasure
for us to plunder!

We'd best stay low
and creep to the castle,

All sneaky-like!

[Monkey mate farts]

arrr! I said sneaky like,
not stinky like.

[Anticipating gasp]

Phew!

Hi-yah!

Oof!

Badou:
I'm sorry!

Munroe,
maybe you shouldn't...

Munroe?

Munroe: why-yah!
Ms. Strich: [screams]

Anytime,
anywhere.

Okay. No quill fu-ing
when other people are around.

Oh my.

Munroe!

Ungh!

Hiii-yaaaah!

Chiku:
aw! That was going in,
munroe!

It was going in!

[Groans]
time out, okay?

We're trying to play
kickerball!

There are no time-outs
in my quillin' plan, bu!

Ho! Ho! Ha! Hiya!

Badou:
but you're making
everybody jumpy.

Especially me!

Munroe?

I have to always be on my toes,
chiku.

Munroe could come at me
from anywhere, anytime.

[Cackles]

Whoa! Hi-yah!

You're getting fast,
bu!

That was really fast!

Munroe: hi-yah!
Chiku: agghhhh!

Mmm-mmm.

Whoa!

Hi-yah!

[Laughing]

Huh? Bu's pants?!

How'd that happen?

Badou:
I don't care
how it happened!

Just give them back,
quick!

[Laughing]

He went that way, bu!
That way!

Oooh! Ha!

[Panting]

Dilash:
oh! Hey, look, everybody!
It's the new town flag!

King babar's gonna change
celesteville's name

To pantsylvania!

[Snickering]

Hey, prince badou!
Lose something?

Badou:
[gasps]

Munroe:
don't worry, bu,
we've got you covered!

Badou:
ow! Ow! Ow!

Monkey mate:
there it be!

babar's palace!

Snaggle-eye:
arrr?! Ye scurvy monkey!

'Tis not the real palace!

Ohhh!

This be where they dress up
in costumes

And do play actin'
and pretendin' and such!

No worries,
snaggle-eye!

I'll spy out
the true palace,

and then we'll go steal
the king's treasures!

Bah! I be too tired
to plunder now!

First, we grab
some shut-eye,

Then we look
for some real loot!

arrrrr.

[Snoring]

That was the most
embarrassing thing

That's ever happened to me!

munroe:
don't worry, bu,

It won't happen again.

'Cuz now I'm gonna train you
even harder!

Hi-yah!

No! It won't happen again
because I quit!

You can't quit!

As your future loyal bodyguard -
hi-yah! -

I have to make sure
you're ready for danger

Anytime, anywhere!

Hi-yah!

[Quill-fu cries]

Badou:
oh yeah?

Well, as your future king,
I order you to leave me alone!

I'm tired of
your quill-fu phooey!

Phooey?

Take that back!
Quill-fu is-

badou:
phooey!

[Gasps]

Munroe:
oh yeah?

Well then maybe I won't even be
your bodyguard!

Badou:
good!

Munroe:
fine then!

badou:
yeah. Fine!

Chiku:
bu? Munroe?

Don't go away mad.

Guys?
[Sighs heavily]

Hey, munroe!

[Sighs sadly]

Here. You can give them
back to bu.

Why don't you give them
back to him?

Munroe:
you do it.

Badou doesn't want me
to be his bodyguard anymore.

[Sighs] maybe I should give up
quill-fu altogether!

Give up quill-fu?!

I guess he really doesn't wanna
be my future bodyguard anymore.

Chiku:
sure he does!

Just talk to him, bu!
Talk to him!

I can't, chiku!

After all the mean things
I said,

He probably doesn't even wanna
be my friend!

delivery hippo:
delivery for king babar!

What has you looking
so sad, bado

[Sighs] I got mad at munroe
and he got mad at me.

I don't think we're friends
anymore, papi.

Ah. Well, friends don't
get along all the time.

Believe me,
I know.

You do?

Did you and uncle zephyr ever
get mad at each other?

Once,
when we were young,

We didn't speak
for three whole days!

Hmm...
I can't remember why.

Oogh!

Zephyr:
got ya again!
[Laughs triumphantly]

Your grandpa wanted
to play kickerball,

But I wanted to play jumpball.

Ah, yes.
Neither of us would budge.

Zephyr:
but the joke was on us!

Neither of us
was having fun!

So we decided to play
both sports at the same time!

Babar:
that's how we invented
jump kicker ball.

And we've been having fun
together ever since.

So, even if you argue
about something,

You don't have to stop
being friends?

If you have the courage
to admit when you're wrong,

Your friendship
can last a lifetime!

Thumpin!

Whoa!

[Licks lips]
mmm...

Badou:
munroe! Munroe?

Nits and gnats!
Where did he go?

[Calling]
munroe?!

Munroe?

Snaggle-eye:
shiver me timbers!

We won't have to go
looking for loot;

The loot has come to us!

[chuckles]

what luck!

avast! It be that
tricky young prince!

We'd best set sail.

It be two against one!

I say we jump out,
scare him silly,

Then steal his crown.

A surprise att*ck
always works!

[Sneaky laugh]

Munroe?

Monkey mate:
yo-ho-ho!

Snaggle-eye:
[groans]

This lad be cool
as a sea cucumber!

Arrrrr!

Badou:
hi-yah! That's because
I'm quill-fu trained

To be ready for danger!

Snaggle-eye:
hand over yer crown,

Or we'll swab
the deck with 'ee!

[att*ck cry]

Whoa! Agh!

[Laughs]

Munroe:
battle rattle!

Munroe?

[att*ck cry]

Munroe:
I've been secretly guarding you
ever since you left the palace!

Monkey mate:
go fer the crown!

I'll take care o' the prince's
prickly pal!

[att*ck cry]

Arrrr!

Badou:
whoa-whoa-whoa!

[Loud clatter]

[Pained groans]

Snaggle-eye:
they've bested us!

Abandon ship!

Don't you want my crown?

Hi-yah!

Ooof!

[Pulling grunts]

Oof!

Quillin'!

Munroe:
and tusktastic!

Snaggle-eye and monkey mate:
[woozy] aaarrrrrrrr....

Badou:
I was wrong when I said
quill-fu was phooey.

Thanks to your quillin' plan,

Those sneaky pirates
didn't surprise me at all!

And I should've
said okay

When you wanted
a time-out.

Then I wouldn't have quilled
your pants off in the bazaar.

Babar:
well, badou,

You and munroe shared
quite an adventure!

Chiku:
are you friends again?
Are you?

We never stopped
being friends!

Right!

A little argument
will never end our friendship!

Babar:
I'm glad to hear that, lads!

Zephyr:
so am i!

[Laughing]

You sure got me back
for all my pranks!

Good one, babar!

Babar:
thank you, zephyr!

But look at all these
empty peels.

What happened
to the bananas?

Dilash:
[belches]

[Groans]
my tummy hurts!

I want my mommy!

[All laugh]
