[Squeaking sound]

Prince badou!
Prince badou!

There he is!

Wah-hoo!

Never fear,
badou is here!

Yeah!

Woo-hoo!

rhudi:
don't you worry,
here comes rhudi!

Aaggghhhh!

Rudi:
a-haaaaaaa!

Tersh:
hey! Whoa!

Munroe:
watch it, rhudi!

Quit hornin' in,
rhudi!

I can handle this solo!

Solo?

Aren't you guys supposed
to be teaching us

To be better pilots?

Whoa!

Rhudi and munroe:
oof!

Badou and tersh:
whaaa!

Chiku:
don't dismay,
chiku's on the way!

Woo-hoo!
[Laughs]

Rhudi:
hey! [Laughs]

Zawadi:
chiku, the junior pilot's
handbook says:

"During a rescue mission

All pilots must help
one another."

Yep. Ungh!

Chiku:
[giggles]

[Giggling]

All:
whaaaaa!

Tersh:
ohhhhhh!

[Thump]

[Heavy thump]

tersh:
uh-oh!

babar:
junior pilots!

Return to base camp
at once!

pilots,
there's no question

Your flying skills
are top-notch.

Kids:
[excited]
yes! Yeah!

But there is more
to being a junior pilot

Than pedal power
and fast reflexes.

You were supposed
to train your students

On how to perform
a proper rescue.

I'm giving you
a new assignment.

[Everyone gasps]

Solo flying?

Private pilot practice?

Rhino rocket time?

You'll teach your students

How to fly
in arrow formation

Past observation rock.

Hmm?

Ugh.

Formation flying?
That's boring!

babar:
pilots and students,
to your zoomerblimps!

zawadi: propeller? Check.
chiku: huh?

Struts? Check!

Blimpaloon inflated?

[Sighs] zawadi,
I already checked that stuff!

Check!

The junior pilot's
handbook says:

"All junior pilots shall inspect
their zoomerblimps

Before flying."

Now I just have to check
wind speed

And air temperature...

Oh, and the bird traffic.

Rhudi and munroe:
woo-hoo! Yeah!

And that's how we fly
rhino-style.

Rhudi, I've flown before,
you know.

I even have
my own zoomerblimp!

Just keep
your lips zipped

And don't touch
my controls!

Munroe:
hmph! Aaggghhhhhhh!

Badou and tersh:
hey! Waaaaa!

Oh my!

Rhudi:
woo hoo! Yeah!

Do you think
I'll ever learn

Tricky flying moves
like that?

How about we start with
the most important move.

A mid-air
reverse-pedal stop?!

Nope.

Flying in
a straight line!

Chiku:
[yawns]

Okay,
I'm ready to fly!

We're less than
a monkey's tail

Off the ground,
zawadi!

Higher! Go higher!

The junior pilot's
handbook says:

"First-time pilots must
keep low to the-"

Whaaaaa!

Munroe:
whaaaa!

Rhudi:
[laughs]

Badou:
okay, tersh, as a pilot,
you gotta be "air aware"

So you can handle a zoomerblimp
in all conditions.

Headwinds, tailwinds,
crosswinds,

Updrafts, downdrafts.
Got it?

Good.

Now pick the place
you want to go -

Say, that tree -

And fly towards it.

Rhudi: woo-hoo! Yeah!
Tersh: whaaaaa!

Easy turns,
not hard ones!

Sudden moves can make
a zoomerblimp spin!

And pedal -
don't forget to pedal!

Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah!

Pilots and students,
move into arrow formation!

Woo-hoo! Let's go!

Munroe:
agghhh!

[Air hisses]

Don't let go
of the controls!

Paws off!

We can't get in formation
if you're flying in circles!

Zawadi, you're too low
and too slow!

Both:
whaaaaaaa!

All:
aaagggghhhh! Oof!

Badou:
tersh, I told you to fly
in a straight line!

Chiku:
zawadi, you should've
flown higher!

Rhudi:
I'm grounding you
for balloon busting, munroe!

Babar:
pilots, you've had enough
training for one day...

And so have i.

Pilots, the goal
of your assignment

Was to teach your students
to fly in arrow formation.

Did any of you achieve
that goal?

I didn't think so.

Well, you'll have
another chance tomorrow.

All solo flying
is cancelled.

Hmm?

[Gasps]

Pilots, dismissed!

Rhudi:
it's not fair
that I have to fly

With a pin cushion
for a copilot.

At least munroe
knows how to fly,

And zawadi's learned
the basics.

From reading a book.

[Laughing]

Tersh is never going
to make a good pilot.

[snoring]

I can so be a good pilot!

Easy right, easy left!

I'm sky croc tersh!

Gotta be air aware.

Easy right, easy left!

Easy right, easy left!

[Babar trumpets loudly]

It's a great day
for flying!

But where's tersh?

[Gasps]
your zoomerblimp's gone,
'bu!

Hah! Maybe he heard

What badou said about him
last night

And flew home.

I said he'd never
make a good pilot.

Badou, that is not
the junior pilot way.

I'd better start
a search for him.

zawadi:
your majesty,

According to the junior
pilot's handbook,

"A blimpliner covers
more ground in a search."

Right you are,
zawadi.

Run ahead to the blimpfield

and have them prepare
a ship for me.

Huh?

Nits and gnats!

The pedals and the drive train
from my zoomerblimp!

That's bad, 'bu.

Tersh can steer

But he won't be able
to power the ship.

Chiku:
the wind could blow him
right off the map.

Badou:
we gotta find him!
C'mon!

Rhudi:
huh?

[Laughs]

[Squawks]

'Bu, the wind is changing;

That marabou is gliding
on air currents

Going thataway!

[Marabou squawks]

Then that's the way
the wind is blowing tersh!

Chiku, where did you learn
how to read bird traffic?

From zawadi!
[Chuckles]

It was in
the junior pilot handbook!

[Gasps]
there he is!

Chiku:
he's drifting
into windsong canyon!

Badou:
rhudi, chiku and I have flown
the canyon before.

We'll go after him!
You guys wait here.

Rhudi:
anywhere he can fly,
I can fly!

Ahem...

Okay, fine.
We can fly.

[Pedals squeak,
zoomerblimp hums quietly]

Tersh:
gotta be air aware,
gotta be air aware,

[Wind gusts strongly]
gotta be air- whaaaaaaaaaa!

[Wind gusts strongly]
whooooooaaaaa!

Whaaaaa!

[Gasps]
oh no, no, no!

Look ahead.
No sudden moves.

Fly in a straight line.

Now an easy right...

Easy left...
An easy right...

[Gasps]

Hmm? Oh...
Aaaaaggghhhhh!

Hard right!
Hard right!

[Chuckles] looks like tersh
learned something from you

After all, bu!

Woo-hoo!

Thumpin',
you did it!

Cooool!

Prince badou, I'm sorry
I let your zoomerblimp

Get blown away!

Tersh, that was
tusk-tastic flying!

[Wind gusts]
whaaaaa!

[Gasps]

Chiku:
'bu! He's heading straight
for blowy bluffs!

Badou:
we'll catch him!

Get ready to throw
the life ring!

We're not gonna make it,
'bu!

Aaaaggggghhhhhhh!

Rhudi:
woo-hoo!

Whaaaaa!

We're getting too close
to those bluffs!

full power to those pedals!

Chiku:
tersh, catch the ring!

I can't let go!

I have to keep steering!

[Light thump,
tersh screams]

[Giggles]
c'mon, tersh!

Let's get outta here!

I can't leave badou's
zoomerblimp!

It'll smash
into the cliff!

We can always build
another zoomerblimp, tersh,

But there's only one you!

Rhudi:
woo-hoo! Yeah!

Unnnggghhh!

Yes!

Great throw!

No way we could let a piece
of sweet machinery like that

Get smashed!

That's one thing
we can agree on!

[Gasps]

[Chuckles]

Good job, pilots!

now follow me back to camp,

arrow formation!

Badou:
tersh, I'm sorry about
what I said.

You're gonna be a great pilot
one day.

Tersh:
gee, thanks, badou.

Maybe I will be...
If I have the right teacher.

Well said, tersh.

It shouldn't take
an emergency

To bring out the best
in all of you.

Remember the code
of the skies.

Kids:
help others every day!

Treat all with respect
in every way!

Chiku:
let's get you and tersh
back in the air, 'bu!

Munroe:
I'll get a wrench
and some bolts

For your drive train.

Rhudi:
and I'll show ya
how to tighten 'em rhino-style.

Zawadi:
the junior pilot handbook
says,

"a drive chain
must be well-oiled."

Now that is
the junior pilot way!

[Chuckles]

Dilash:
[humming]

[Slurps]

Badou: woo-hoo!
Munroe: yee-haw!

Aaggghhhh!

Hey! Watch it,
you silly babies!

Badou:
woo-hoo!

Tersh:
huh?

Munroe and badou:
[gasp] whooaaaaa!

[Growled grunt]

Badou: agh!
Munroe: oof!

Mr. Handyhippo:
whoa!

oof!

Oops!
Sorry, mr. Handyhippo!

Agh!

[Hard plunk]

Badou:
[gasps]

Munroe!
Needle nab time!

Woo-hoo!

[Gasps]

Munroe:
got it! Oof!

Whoa-oa-oof!

Whoa! Whoa!
[Coconuts clatter]

[Thunk]
oof!

Ungh! Ooh! Agh! Ungh!
Oof! Agh!

[Laughing]

Sorry,
mr. Handyhippo!

Crocodylus:
sorry?!

You've done something
quite marvellous,

Young prince!

Surely the royal chef
can use these

To make his scrumptious
candied coconut cream cake.

Mr. Handyhippo:
why, that's a fine idea,
ambassador.

Thank you!

Whoa! Whoa! Whaaaaa!

Crocodylus:
I've got you!

Wow!

Ooh...

Tersh!

Are you okay,
mr. Handyhippo?

Let us see,
shall we?

Nothing sprained?
Nothing broken?

Dilash,
you croco-catastrophe,

i've warned you about
your bad banana manners.

Sorry, uncle.
Sorry, mr. Handyhippo.

Nephewcompoops!

Let us help you,
sir.

Tersh:
oh! Eeee!

[Humming]

Tersh:
[strained grunts]

Maybe I'm still dizzy
from that needle nab spin,

But was the ambassador
just being nice?

He's never nice.

Unless he wants something.

My gut is telling me
we should keep an eye on him.

[Soldering hiss]

Badou:
mom! Look out!

[Gasps] oh my!
Is everyone all right?

What happened?

Badou:
it was the crocs, mom!

I? My! Why?

I mean...
It had to be!

Badou, what you're saying
is very serious.

Did you see how the statue
was knocked over?

Crocodylus:
lady periwinkle,

If I or my nephews

Were accidentally the cause
of this... Er, accident,

You have my sincerest apologies.

[Tail snaps like a whip,
tersh and dilash grunt]

No, ambassador,
thank you for saving me.

[Satisfied grunt]

[Whistling]

Badou:
why are the crocs hanging around
the royal kitchen?

I dunno.
[Sniffs]

Maybe 'cuz they smell
candied coconut cream cake.

Royal chef:
whoa!

[Gasps]

Crocodylus:
one, two, three...
Four, five, six...

And seven scrumptious layers!

Royal chef:
but it is stacked
ze wrong way.

Seven, six, five, four, three,
two and... One!

Your cake,
your culinary greatness!

Merci!

I gotta admit it, 'bu.

Crocodylus has some
serious moves.

Yes, he does.

Badou:
finally!

Now we'll see what the crocs
are really up to!

Munroe:
they're heading for
the king's study.

What do we do, 'bu?

Full-scale croc att*ck?

[Quill-fu grunts]

No. I want to catch them
in the act of, well...

Um, whatever it is
they're up to.

[Door squeaks]

A-ha! We've got you now!

Ah, king babar.

Well, this is a surprise.

Papi!
We just caught crocodylus

In the act of...
Of...

Of inviting you,
oh marvelous majesty,

To a special event.

I had planned to leave this
on your desk,

But now that you're here,

I can invite you
in person.

But, but...

Thank you.

A most thoughtful
invitation.

I accept.

There's been some chatter

Around the palace,
ambassador.

I hear you
and your nephews,

Have been most
helpful lately.

[Sly chuckle]

[Tail snaps,
tersh and dilash grunt]

Is this when we give the king
his surprise, uncle?

Shhhh!
It wouldn't be a surprise

If you tell him about it,
tersh.

[Giggles]

A surprise?
From crocodylus?

He must be up
to something.

babar:
you know, ambassador,

I was just thinking

How nice it would be
to play a game of croquet.

Would you care
to join me?

Crocodylus:
I would be honored,
your imperial elephantiness.

Croquet...
With the crocs?

There's no way my papi
is falling

For crocodylus' nice act...
Is there?

I don't know, bu'.

Maybe he isn't acting.

badou:
where are dilash and tersh?

tersh was looking forward
to giving my papi his surprise.

Munroe:
first, you're suspicious
when they are around.

Now you're suspicious
when they're not around?

crocodylus:
[clears throat]

Your exalted excellency,
king babar,

Please accept this small gift

As a sign of
the everlasting friendship

Between celesteville
and the crocodile slogs!

[Applause]

Babar:
it's a very good likeness.

thank you, ambassador.

i will be sure to give it
a place of honour

In the art gallery.

Er, surely such a valuable gift
should be placed

In a more, uh, secure location.

Is the statue not meant
to be looked at, ambassador?

Of course,
your royal regality,

But, um...
A statue this beautiful

Will only draw attention away
from the other statues

In your gallery.

Perhaps it would be better off
somewhere else.

Say...
The royal treasure chamber?

The treasure chamber?

There's no way my papi
is gonna go for that!

babar:
the royal treasure chamber.

that's a capital idea,
ambassador.

badou:
i don't get it.

Maybe my gut was wrong,
munroe.

What do you mean?

My papi seems
to trust crocodylus,

And the ambassador did
give him a...

Well, a big gift.

[loud clunk]

Tersh and dilash:
oof! Ouch! Get off!

Tersh and dilash!

They're inside the statue!

That's why crocodylus
wanted the statue

Moved to the treasure chamber!

Ol' crocodylus could empty
the place!

Come on!
We have to tell my papi!

Can I help you,
prince badou?

Guard,
where is the king?

Hmm... He's off on
very important business.

He left orders that
he was not to be disturbed.

Nits and gnats!

The crocs are hiding
inside the statue!

I heard them!

Guard:
I think you must be mistaken,
prince.

Your gut was right
about crocodylus, 'bu.

What's it telling you
to do now?

It's telling me
to move that statue

As far away
from the treasure chamber

As we can.

Like to the guard house.

I am at your command,
captain-prince-pal, sir.

[Giggles]
when do we jump out

And yell "surprise"
to the king?

Badou:
it's just us -

Sam and bernard,
the royal movers.

Crocodylus:
thieves! Bandits!

[smack] ooh!

Stop!

Badou and munroe:
whoa! Oops!

Aagggghhhhhh!

Oof!

Badou:
quick, that way!

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

Oof!

Babou:
hey, let go!

Crocodylus:
that's mine!

Aghhh! Oof!

Arrr!

Whaaaaa!

Dilash: aaaggghhhhhhh!
Tersh: weeeee-hee-hee!

Badou and crocodylus:
whoa!

Badou:
sorry, moo-oo-oo-om!

Crocodylus:
out of the way,
you silly speed bump!

[Loud clunk]
oof!

Badou: whaaaaa!
Crocodylus: aaagghhhhhhhh!

Badou: aaggghhhh!
Crocodylus: aggghhhh!

Aggghhhhhh!

[Crash]

[Groans]

Weeeeee!

Was that part
of the king's surprise?

babar:
i'd say the surprise
is on your uncle.

badou:
papi?

You knew the crocs
were inside the statue?

I had a hunch, badou.

The ambassador was
a little too determined

To have the statue
put into the treasure chamber.

Crocodylus:
w-w-whatever do you mean,
your majesty?

My nephews were supposed
to jump out and surprise you...

As part of the gift,
of course.

Babar:
guards, escort the ambassador
to his quarters.

Crocodylus: oof!
Tersh: yay!

Can we ride in the statue again,
uncle?

That was fun!

Dilash:
[groans in pain]

I'm sorry about
the mess, papi.

I just had a feeling
about the crocs.

I should've known
you wouldn't be fooled.

Well, don't apologize,
badou.

You helped save
the royal treasury

By listening to your gut.

Sometimes your gut
is all you have to go on.

Now, what say
we collect munroe

And go have a nice game
of croquet?

Papi, my gut tells me

That that would be
a tusk-tastic idea!
