[Engine hums]

[Lands with a thud]

This is gonna be
tusktastic!

This isn't all fun
and frivolity, your majesty.

Whooaaa!

Oh! Your princeling
prep classes

Include a test
on wild life skills.

I've got it covered,
ms. Strich.

I've read all the wild
life textbooks.

It'll be a breeze!

Well, [chuckles]
we shall see.

Now, where is
your wild life tutor?

[Loud roar]

All:
aaahhhhhhhhhh!

Whazzup,
little tame towners?

Oh! And, of course,
the lovely leggy lady.

[Flattered giggle]
oh... Thank you.

Andi, where did you
come from?

I was here the whole time.

I used the tall grass
to move around undetected-like.

Badou:
that's lesson one,
isn't it?

Use what the savanna
gives you!

Somebody's been doing
his homework.

And lesson two?

On the savanna,
you travel fast and light.

Exactamundo!

And that means
no tame towner gadgets

Or gizmos or grub.

Drop the packs.
Leave 'em by that rock.

But what about my vacuum-packed
mango burgers?

My clean water canteen?

My ropes
and lantern lights?

You heard dandy...
[Giggles]

I mean andi!

Packs down,
immediatement!

Bu, when I said
I'd help you practice

For your wild life test,

I didn't mean this!

Relax, chiku!

If you get into trouble,

I'll be here
to bail you out!

Okay, it's time
to get wild!

Bonne chance, children.

I'll be here
to pick you up tomorrow.

But that doesn't mean
I won't be keeping an eye on you

In the meantime.

[Engine hums]

Ahhh! Ohhh!

[Embarassed chuckle]

All right.
Anybody hungry?

Starving!

Grubs?
Now wait a monkey minute!

Chiku! In the wild,

You can't just go
to the kitchen

For a snack.

Lesson three.
Right, andi?

Ha-ha! Bang on, ba-dude!

You eat what nature gives you.

Mmm!

agh!

I've only read about this
in books,

I've never actually
eaten one before.

[Gulps]

[Chuckles]

Andi:
your turn.

Wunderbarste!

Insects are a rich source
of protein.

Ack! [Chokes]

I swallowed a bug!
I swallowed a bug!

[Gagging]

Huh. Sounds like a hyena
with a head cold.

[Laughs]

Okay. On to lesson four:
finding water.

I know where there's
lots of water!

Back in our canteens!

The textbook says we should
listen for mosquitos

Because they like
to hang around water.

[Chuckles]

This way!

Awwwright, ba-dude!

Not all bodies of water
are safe to drink from,

But I can vouch for this one.

[Slurping]

Both:
ewww!

Are you sure
this is safe?

Yeah, this water has
a funny taste.

[Water bubbles]

Oh! Can't a hippo get
a little privacy?

Ugh! We were drinking
bathwater?!

Ms. Strich:
finding water in the wild!

Oh! Tres bon, badou!

[Fire crackles]

[Sniffs]

Hmm.

Ahhhhh! Ahh! Ahh!

That doesn't sound
like a hyena.

Yeah. Nah, that's the uh...
Screaming savanna stork.

[Coughs to cover a chuckle]
very rare.

Now, lesson five:
shelter!

[Screaming]

[Relaxed sigh]

Welcome to badou's palace!

I built it to withstand

Anything nature can
throw at it.

Wha!

Chiku:
[giggles] there's plenty of room
over here,

If you want to hang out.

Hey! You didn't build
your shelter,

You found it!

I'm just following
lesson one

And using what the savanna
gave me.

Hey! Can't argue with that.
Great job, dudette.

Ms. Strich:
ahh... Taking advantage
of the natural landscape

To build a shelter.

Bravo!

Woo-hoo-hooooooo!

Chiku:
that was no savanna stork.

Yeah, probably...

An aardvark who sucked up
a wasp... Or something.

Okay! C'mon!
Next lesson.

Next lesson?

But it's late

And we just finished
our shelter.

Yeah. Isn't it time
to start a campfire

And roast some berries
on a stick.

Those are for tame towners,
dude.

Wild lifers don't use 'em.

Fires attract bugs
and other animals,

And they can get outta
control too.

Badou:
but what do you do
when it gets dark and...

You know, scary?

Use your smarts.

You can't always trust your eyes
or your ears.

What sounds big could be small

And what sounds small

Could... Be...
Sneaking up to...

[Growls loudly]

Pounce on you!

[Laughs]

Gotcha!

The best way to not be scared
of the dark

Is to know what's in it.

Lesson six:
know your territory.

You know,
this savanna skills stuff

Is a lot harder
than I thought.

You're doing okay, 'bu.
Really, you are.

Look! Andi,
there are tracks here.

Yep. Fresh ones, too.

Better follow them
and see who our neighbour is.

Couldn't you just tell us?

Well, yeah,

But then you wouldn't
learn anything.

[Metallic clink]
whoooooooaaaaaa!

Badu:
[gasps] andi!

Whoooooaaaaa!

Andi, are you okay?

Can you climb out?

Negatory, little buddy.

This pit is way deep
and way steep.

[Struggling]
unnnggghhhh!

There's nothing here
we can lower to you.

If we had the rope
from our packs...

Andi, do you think
we should go back

And get our packs?

There's some rope there.

But that means finding
the landing site in the dark!

In the dark, 'bu!

Andi,
what should we do?

Trust your training,
ba-dude.

We're going to get
the ropes.

We'll be back
as quick as we can.

Bu, what if we get lost?

I know where we're going...
I think.

Racing off in the dark?
Very unwise.

[Tsk, tsk, tsk]

[Braying in the distance]

Whatever that is,

I hope it's not
coming for us!

[Loud squawk]
whoa!

Ahhh! It got 'bu!

No, I'm here.
I just tripped.

Check it out -

This was part of the shelter
I was building.

Look!

It means we are going
the right way!

The watering hole
should be...

Over there! C'mon!

Yep.
Tastes like hippo.

You're tracking our trail
backward!

And we're on
the right path!

This is where
we found the grubs!

Chiku:
you did it. 'Bu!

You tracked us right back
to where we started from.

Now we just have to...

Hey, where's our gear?

Oh no!

Chiku:
who would take our packs?

And how are we going
to get andi out of that pit?

We gotta get him out,
'bu.

Whoa!

Use what the savanna
gives you.

Huh?

Badou:
I know how to rescue andi!

Come on!

Don't worry, andi.

One savanna rescue mission
coming up!

Awwwright!

Chiku:
you tried that already.
It's stuck tight.

But remember how andi lifted up
the rock for the grubs?

[Struggling]
unnnnggh! Unnnggghhh!

Tusk-tastic!

[Hears rustling]
hold up!

Andi, sshhhh!

[Rustling nearby]

There's something
in the grass.

Maybe something hungry.

Here's what we do.

When I give the signal,
you push the log down to andi.

I'll handle our guest.

Chiku! Now!

[Loud trumpeting]

Ms. Strich:
ahhhhh!

[Groans]

Badou:
ms. Strich?

[Gasps]
prince badou?

Andi:
hopefully you didn't ruffle
those beautiful feathers,

Little birdie.

[Giggles]

Chiku:
ms. Strich, what are you doing
out here?

You took our gear?
Why?

Dudes, ms. Strich and I have
been working together

The whole time!

You weren't just getting
training,

You were being graded too!

Then the pit trap?

Acting! I fell into it
on purpose.

It was the final test

To see if you could use
your new skills.

With chiku's help,

You passed
with flying feathers.

[Giggles]

Chiku:
now this is the life.

Badou:
yeah. The wild life.

Don't you just love it,
ms. Strich?

Ahh, there is nothing quite
like roughing it... Ack.

I swallowed a bug!

[Choking and gagging]

All:
[laugh]

Badou:
jaaaaaaake!

Jake:
baaaaadddooouuu!

Wanna play some
kicker ball?

You betcha, 'bu!
Be right down!

Bye, cornelius!

Gonna-play-kicker-ball
with-badou-see-ya!

Cornelius:
jake? Please be back
by three o'clock.

Three o'clock!
Gotcha!

[Chuckles]

Why?
What's at three o'clock?

Hey!

Badou:
jaaaaaaaaaake!

I got it!

Oof!

Badou:
nice one, jake!

Thanks, 'bu.

Hey, do you know where
cornelius is going?

He was carrying suitcases.

Munroe:
suitcases?

Maybe you're going
on vacation!

A vacation!
Wow! Really?

I don't know, jake.

Cornelius never goes
on vacation.

Chiku:
well, if it's not a vacation,

Why would cornelius
have suitcases?

How come, 'bu?

Unless he was, you know,
moving away or something.

Oof!

[Pained groans]

[Gasps]
moving away?!

Y-you think we're
moving away?

No! Of course not!

Maybe?

You're not moving away.

I mean, I'm pretty sure
you're not.

King babar would know.

Can you ask him,
'bu?

I would,
but he and nana flew

To lady rataxes's
pool party charity thing.

"Save the swamps."

But I've got a better idea.

Let's ask cornelius!

He's the one
with the secret suitcases!

[Startled]
ahh!

Oh hello, children.

Hi, cornelius.
What's the luggage for?

Chiku:
yeah, where are you going?

It looks like
you're going somewhere.

[Rambling nervously]
well... Of course
one sees luggage

And assumes that one
is going away.

Hey, is this mine?

Oh, this bag belongs to uh...
Lady rataxes!

Badou:
lady rataxes is coming
to the palace?

[Clears throat]
oh, well, yes.
It's a surprise.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I have to deliver these
to the...

Uh, guest room!
That's it.

Busted!

Yeah! Lady rataxes
isn't coming.

Cornelius was definitely
hiding something.

Why would he hide something?

It must be bad.

I am moving.

Bummersville, jake.

But you can always visit
and we'll write.

I wonder
when you hit the road?

Three o'clock.

That's when cornelius told me
to be home.

Badou:
jake isn't going anywhere
until I talk to my papi.

I mean... How can cornelius
even think about leaving

With such an important
guest coming?

Chiku: [speaking loudly]
so how long is lady rataxes
going to be here, bu?

Badou:
I don't know.

Cornelius said it was
a surprise visit.

[Gasps]

Lady rataxes?
Coming here?!

[Clears throat]

Oh prince badoooooou!

Badou:
yes, ms. Strich?

Did i, by chance,

Overhear you mention
in passing, I'm sure,

[Chuckles]

That lady rataxes
is coming?!

Cornelius is taking her luggage
to a guest room right now.

Oh! Oh my fevered feathers!

I have to alert the staff!

I have to warn the kitchen!

I have to find cornelius!

Lady rataxes is coming!

She's coming!

Lady rataxes is coming!
Andale! Andale!

Oof!

Lady rataxes is coming!

With all this
nutso-ness,

There's no way cornelius
can leave!

Aahhhhh!

Children,
why are you standing around?!

The entire palace must do
everything possible

To give lady rataxes
a warm rhino welcome!

Corneeeeeliuuuus!

And we need to keep cornelius

"Operation secret suitcase"
has begun!

Are you sure,
master badou?

Well, you said you needed
to prepare in half the time.

This will definitely
speed things up.

Both:
[unsteady] whoa!

Let me see,
I have our blimpliner tickets...

And jake's favourite toys
are all packed.

Time to get
to the blimpfield...

[Gasps]
tooting tusks!

I'll have to hurry
if I'm to get these-

Jake:
hello!

Ahhh! Jake!

To the guest room, right?
Let me take 'em!

Oh, that's not necessary, jake.
Jake, no!

Jake:
weeeeee!

Chef:
looooooook out!

Cornelius: oof!
Chef: oh!

Howling hyenas!
What are you doing?

Sorry, sir.

But with so little time
to prepare for lady rataxes,

I needed to speed things up.

Lady rataxes isn't coming here!

Badou:
she isn't?

Er... I meant...
She isn't coming here...

Until later... Much later!

Tusk-tastic!

Then there's plenty of time

To make more
hot-buttered honey tarts.

Yes, um, butter away!
I need to find...

Jake:
weeeee!

Jake! Come back!
I need those!

[Loud electric guitar playing]

Oh my tusks!
What now?

♪♪

Cornelius:
babbling baboons!
What is going on?

We're trying out
some new riffs

For when lady rataxes arrives!

But lady rataxes isn't...
Uh...

Lady rataxes isn't...
What?

[Stammering]
er... Uh, isn't fond of riffs.

Jake:
weeeeeeeee!

But it sounds splendid!
Carry on!

Jake! I beg of you to-

[Distant splattering sound]

Tumbling tigers!
What is that?

[Guard practices
electric guitar riff]

What monkey madness
is this?!

Ms. Strich:
oh cornelius!
There you are!

I was looking...
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

Why is there mud
in the fountain?

I don't know!

Ms. Strich told us to make
lady rataxes feel welcome

And everyone knows

How much rhinos love
a mud bath!

But lady rataxes isn't...

I wish there was time...
Time!

We have to leave!

No!
You can't leave!

Ow!

Corneluis:
oh my!

Whoooaaa!

Jake:
did it work?
Did it? Huh? Huh?

Munroe:
did it ever!

Cornelius is way too busy
to leave now!

Oh no!

Coming through!

Ahhhhhhhh!

"Operation secret suitcase"
is a big success!

Whoa!

Oof!

[Gasps]

If it's a big success,

How come I don't feel
so good?

[Guards stop playing,
clock chimes]

Three o'clock!
Ahh!

We'll never make it!
My plans are ruined!

No they're not, cornelius!
I'm right here!

Jake? You wanna move?

No! But what would you do
if it was your mom and dad?

Or your nana and papi?

If cornelius is going...
Then I am too.

We'll miss you, jake.

I'll miss you guys,
too.

Me too!

I'm coming,
cornelius!

Whoooaaa!

Ooof!

[Gasps]

Ahhhh!

[Splat]

Ohhh! Aahhh!

Our luggage!

I mean... Er,
lady rataxes' lug-

It's okay.

I know lady rataxes
isn't coming.

She's not?!

Will someone tell me
what's going on?!

Babar:
yes. Celeste and I would love
to know as well.

Cornelius:
your royal highness!

I, i... You're home early,
how grand.

Yes, we wanted to give you
and jake a bon voyage gift.

It's a camera
for your vacation.

All:
vacation?!

You mean cornelius and jake
aren't moving?

Moving?

I would never leave
celesteville!

I just wanted to surprise jake
with a vacation

To the mooncastle mountains.

There's a new amusement park
there and-

[Laughs]
an amusement park! Wow!

Badou:
jake and cornelius
aren't moving!

All right!

That's so great!
Isn't it great?!

Now perhaps someone
will tell us

What's been going on
here?

Cornelius:
oh, it's my fault,
great heart.

In my effort to keep the trip
a surprise,

I'm afraid I told a few fibs.

I, uh, led them to believe
lady rataxes was coming.

Lady rataxes:
what was that?

Did I hear someone
talking about me?

Ahhh!
Lady rataxes is here!

[Fainting moan]

Celeste:
the "save the swamps" pool party
was a huge success.

Unfortunately,
the belly flop competition

Flooded the rhino castle,

So I invited the lady here
to be our guest.

Hmph! Like any elephant would
know how to treat a rhino!

[Playing electric guitars]

Oh! Hmm!
[Eating noisily]

Well, anyone can whip up
some tarts, but...

Wait!
Is that a mud bath?!

[Splash!]

Ahhh, wonderful mud.

Could be warmer though.

Ah, just who I was looking for.

Badou:
wow! It's a postcard
from jake.

Cooool! Read it, bu.
Read it!

"Hi, guys.
Having a blast!

Wish you were here.

Smell ya soon.
Love, jake."

I can't wait until
he and cornelius are home.

Babar:
where they belong.

[Badou giggles]
