[Rotor beats]

Chiku:
I'm slowing the engines!
Bringing us in low.

Badou:
roger, captain!
Movement ahead.

Badou and chiku:
whaaaaa!

Badou:
it's king crocozillo!
Turn about!

Crocodylus:
aagghh!

Ooohhh!

Ahhhh!

Chiku, your blimpliner
is tusk-tastic!

I've been working on it
for weeks and weeks.

Babar:
you've done
a marvellous job.

Chiku:
thanks, your majesty.

Watch this!

[Beeping]

[Chuckle]
thank you, dear!

Babar:
chiku, your dad is
looking for you.

Chiku:
he's taking me
to the bazaar

So I can get new engine
parts for my blimpliner.

I'm gonna make it five
times faster!

'Bu, will you put it back
in my invent tent?

Can I fly it there?

You're in command,
captain badou.

Just be careful!
Be careful, okay?

You can count on me!

Put the toy away now,
love,

And come say hello
to our guests,

Lady rataxes and rhudi.

Rhudi:
hey, bahhhhh-do!

Wanna play some kicker ball?

You're gonna lose

'Cuz I'm a way better
player but... Huh?

A remote control rhinoliner!
Rockin'!

Badou:
hey!

Rhudi! That's chiku's!
She wants it put away!

Lady rataxes:
oh...

[Eating sounds]

Is your grandson always
this noisy?

It's bad for my...
[Belch]

Digestion.

Badou:
stop!

Rhudi:
whoa!

Oops!

I mean...
Meant to do that!

Rhudi, give it back!
You're gonna wreck it!

[Whirrs]

Crocodylus:
muck and mire!

Come back here,
you bandit blimp!

[Effort grutns]

Whaaaaa!

Celeste:
my poor dear!
Are you all right?

[Gasps]

Agh!

Whoaaaaaa!

[Splash]

[Groans]

Oh no!

Babar:
rhudi, didn't you hear
badou say,

Chiku wanted
the toy put away?

[Nervous laugh]

[Air hisses out]

[Sighs]

Lady rataxes:
yoo hoo! Badou hoo!

Oh, it was so nice of you
to entertain rhudi.

Here's a gift to say
thanks.

Um... Thank you?

Lady rataxes:
I knew you'd like it!

Now, it's a rhino tradition
that when you get a gift...

You give one back.

I want the toy rhinoliner!

An excellent choice!
Done!

Huh? No!

Lady rataxes:
this toy will be a symbol

Of the lasting friendship
between rhinos and elephants.

Hand it over!

I can't. The blimpliner
doesn't belong to me!

Pah! You're a prince!

Your subjects will give
you whatever you ask for!

If you refuse, it will
be a terrible insult

To the rhino kingdom.

Uh...
Well, it's in bad shape.

A broken toy isn't much of a
symbol of friendship, is it?

Fix it! Have it ready
before we leave this evening.

Chiku:
hey, 'bu!
Hi, 'bu!

Look, I found the perfect
engine parts!

It's gonna make my blimpliner
ten times faster!

[Badou sighs]

What? What is it?
What's wrong?

What happened? A tornado?
A typhoon?

A rhino.

Rhudi showed up before
I put it away.

I'm sorry, chiku.

I'm sure it
wasn't your fault.

You can always count
on rhudi to make a mess.

That's not all.

Lady rataxes wants me to give
the blimpliner to him.

Huh? But it's not
yours to give.

I told them that!

But she says it's all part
of some

Friendship-tradition-thing

Between the elephants
and rhino kingdoms.

Oh. Sounds important.

It's not fair.
The blimpliner is yours.

We're not gonna
let rhudi take it!

Badou:
ambassador!

Crocodylus:
oooh! Whaaaaa!

Have you seen
my papi and nana?

I heard lady
battle-axe-us

Insist they take
her on a sky tour.

Badou:
lady rataxes could keep
them up there

Until it's time
for her to leave!

Then it'll be too late.

What are we gonna do,
'bu?

Rhudi:
[vroom, vroom]

C'mon!

So chiku can make you your own
blimpliner, right chiku?

Sure! And I can make it
any colour you want.

Rhudi:
uh-huh.
How long will it take?

Umm... It took me weeks
and weeks and weeks,

But I can try to do it
faster!

Forget it!
I'm not waiting weeks.

I'm leaving here with
a gift from you, badou!

[Vroom]

Leaving with a gift, huh?

That gives me an idea.

Rhudi:
this is the royal rhudi
rhinoliner coming in for-

Whoooa-ho-hooooo...

whooaah!!

Badou:
yeah! Awesome!

[Playful laughter]

Rockin'!

Uh... I mean, have you fixed
my blimpliner yet?

Badou:
we'll get to it.

We just thought we'd take
the stampeder here for a spin.

Pretty tusk-tastic, huh?

It's nothing special.

I have three just
like it at home.

Oh. I was gonna let
you drive it,

But if you already
have three-

Rhudi:
wait!

It might be fun
to try it.

I'm a way better
driver anyway.

Rhudi:
whoo-hooooo!

Badou:
rhudi, look out!

Whoa!

Chiku:
sorry! Sorry, about that!

Oof!

Badou:
whaaaaa!

Whooooa!

[Giggles]
ahhhh!

Ahhh!

Wow, this car is rockin'!

Y-y-yeah!

A lot cooler than
that silly old blimpliner.

So after we fix it,

Maybe you could take this
as your gift instead.

Rhudi:
I don't know.

It's all broken and
I don't like the colour and-

Okay, rhudi,

What'll it take to get you to
leave the blimpliner alone?

What do ya got?

What about these?

My wooden elephant
soldiers?

Got any wooden
rhino soldiers?

How about...
My monster chaser hat?

I already chased all the
monsters out of the rhinolands.

My heropotamus comic book
collection.

Badou, no!

Rhudi:
rockin'!
You've got all of them?

Even the one where heropotamus
battles blacktrunk the pirate?

Okay, the whole collection
plus the stampeder

Plus your dumb old hat.

[Gasp] but you only
gave me one gift!

I should only have
to give you one back!

Then I want the blimpliner.

[Sighs]

No deal!

No-way-no-how-no-deal!

Rhudi rataxes, you should
be ashamed of yourself!

You don't want to trade?

That's no skin off my horn.

Make sure the rhinoliner
is fixed and flyable

By the time my grammie
and I leave.

[Vroom, vroom]

Chiku, we can't let him
take your blimpliner.

You spent weeks and weeks
and weeks making it.

And you spent years
collecting those comics!

Nits and gnats.

The worst part is rhudi
will just end up

Crashing the blimpliner.

He plays too rough.

You can always count on
him to make a mess.

You can always count
on him to make a mess!

That's it!

Chiku, I've got a plan.

How fast can you get
your blimpliner fixed?

Why? What are
we gonna do, 'bu?

We're gonna give your toy to
rhudi to do what he wants.

I've made it much sturdier

And the engines make it
twenty times faster!

Maybe thirty!

Do you really think
this'll work, 'bu?

I don't know.

But if we don't try,

Rhudi'll go home with
the blimpliner anyway.

Now, one more thing
and the ship will be ready

For our plan.

Babar:
well, m'lady,
I hope you and rhudi

Had a very pleasant visit.

Lady rataxes:
pleasant?

We have never
been so insulted!

Prince badou promised
my rhudi a gift

Yet here we stand...
Gift-less!

Badou:
here it is!

All fixed and flyable
and with new engines.

Chiku, you're giving
away your blimpliner?

Rhudi:
let me fly it, grammie!

Lady rataxes:
when we get home.
Come along, now.

Badou:
umm... It's a lot more
powerful than before.

Just to be safe,
why don't you let chiku

Show rhudi how to fly it.

Show me? Hah!

I'm a way better pilot.

[Quick beeping]

Ahhh!

Whoa!

Chiku:
you're being too rough!

I know what I'm doing!

Ahhhhhhh!

Lady rataxes:
rhudi, stop!

I can't!
The buttons are stuck!

Whaaaaa!

Whhhaaa!

Ahhhhh!

Chiku! Monkey rocket!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Babar:
nice teamwork, you two.

There no way
I will ever allow

That mechanical menace
into rhinoland!

Well, I suppose we could
keep it here in celesteville.

Rhudi can play with it
henever he comes to visit!

Which we hope is very often.

But I didn't get my gift!

Babar:
how about a big basket of
hot buttered honey tarts

For the trip home?

Hot buttered honey tarts?

An excellent choice!
Done!

But... But...!

Rhudi, let's help your
grandmother out of the garden.

Something tells me
the blimpliner

Wasn't really
rhudi's "gift".

It's not a gift if you make
someone give it to you.

I just figured,
if we took the chance

And let him have
the blimpliner...

Well, you can always count
on rhudi to make a mess.

[Laughs]

Badou, you're going to make
a very clever king one day.

Badou:
get ready, munroe!

Here comes my badou blast!

Oof!

Whoo-hoo!

Nice sh*t, captain!

Guys, check this out!

I've got a new sh*t too!

I call it my zebra zing!

Agh! Ooooof!

[Giggling]

Don't worry, zawadi.

With chiku and munroe
backing me up,

We're gonna whomp
rhudi's rompers.

Well, I'm gonna keep
on practicing.

You never know when you'll
need a substitute player.

Babar:
wise words, zawadi!

Badou:
papi!

All ready for tomorrow's
championship game?

As long as badou's playing,

That trophy's
as good as ours!

Badou, it's time for
your portrait sitting.

Again?

Badou:
this is the last sitting.

My portrait hanging
is tomorrow morning.

You guys are all invited.

All princes and princesses

Hang their portrait
in monarch hall

On the same day king babar
first hung his.

What? So I like to learn
things!

Very good zawadi!

Important visitors
from all over the kingdom

Come to see the ceremony.

But don't worry.

It will be over long
before your game.

[Humming]

Agh!

Ms. Strich:
prince badou! Attenzione,
s'il vous plait!

Ms. Strich, I really should
be out there.

As team captain,
it's my duty-

Ah-ah! You have another
duty tomorrow.

That is to lead the royal
procession up the staircase

In the grand foyer -
like this!

[Giggles]

Then you will enter
the monarch hall

And bow to the ladies.

Then shake hands
with the lords.

Hm!

Next, you will take your crown
from the hands of king babar,

Before unveiling
your royal portrait!

Ta-da! And then do you
know what happens?

I thought "ta-da"
was the end.

Ohh, not this time.

This time the royal procession
will retire

To the kicker ball field

And watch the celesteville
grazers whomp rhudi's rompers!

Oops!

[Angry groans]

[Giggles]

Ms strich:
who's got the ball?
We've got the ball.

Go grazers!

Lady rataxes:
pah! How dare that
overgrown feather duster-

Lord rataxes:
now, now, my little bog
blossom,

Rhudi and his rompers won
the championship last year.

They'll do it again,
right boy?

I don't know.

Dilash and tersh tell me
badou's got a new sh*t.

The badou blast.

Well, we'll just have
to find a way

To take care of that,
won't we?

[Effort grunts]

Badou:
nice try, zawadi.

Munroe:
yeah, but don't hurt yourself.

Badou's got us covered,
right captain?

Right!

My blast is so fast rhudi
won't know what past!

My zebra zing is gonna be
just as good one day.

Lord rataxes:
oh alas! Where is the king?

Where is the queen?

Badou:
what is it, your lordship?

Lady rataxes is ill!
Ill!

My little tub of cactus
butter is ill!

Must be an att*ck
of nasty-itis.

[Giggles]

Lady rataxtes:
ohhhhh, my tummy!

It was those hot buttered
honey tarts I ate last night.

They tasted off.

All twelve trays
of them?

We've sent for doctor
capoulosse-

Lady rataxes:
I don't need a doctor!

I need a rest!

Half a day should do it!

Ooh, yeah.

We request the ceremony be
postponed until this afternoon!

[Gasps]

[Pained moans]

We're your guests, babar.

We came all this way.

My little nettle nest would
be crushed - crushed -

If she missed the portrait
ceremony.

I'll talk to our
other visitors.

She's faking, 'bu!
She's gotta be faking!

If she gets the ceremony
moved back,

You won't be able
to play kicker ball!

We'll talk to rhudi.

If both captains agree,
we can postpone the game.

I'm not agreeing to that.

But rhudi, it's your
grandmother who is sick.

I don't care.

If you don't show up,

You grazers lose and I keep
the trophy for another year.

That guy's thrillin'
for a quillin'!

What are we gonna do,
'bu?

I'll go see my papi.

High hippo:
postpone the ceremony?!

But I have three other
functions to attend today!

A lion luau,
an aardvark anniversary

And a baboon ballet!

Well, I suppose if we moved
the ceremony

To the hour after lunch,
I could still-

Badou:
papi, no!

That's the same time as the
kicker ball championship!

Couldn't we move the ceremony
to tomorrow?

Tomorrow! Tomorrow I have
a flamingo feather festival,

A condor coronation, a-

The ceremony will take place
today as tradition dictates.

What about the game?

The grazers can't win
without my badou blast.

It takes more than one player
to win a championship, badou.

But...

The other children
are free to play,

But you must attend
the ceremony.

Sometimes a prince has
to put duty over desire.

Of course there's nothing
in the tradition that says,

The ceremony can't
finish early...

As long as it runs
smoothly.

[Effort grunts]

Badou:
if I can get through
the ceremony fast enough,

I still might be able
to make part of the game!

Everybody in position!

Munroe:
ready, steady... Go!

Badou:
up the grand staircase!

Oof!

Into monarch hall...

Where I bow to the ladies...

[Giggles]

And shake hands
with the lords.

Then I take my crown
from my papi!

And head for the painting
of me...

Ahh!

Ooooof!

Hi.

I thought you were busy
practicing your zebra zing?

You need the whole team
to help you get ready for this.

C'mon, your turn
to practice.

Oof!

♪♪

♪♪

Well?

At that speed, you'll be able
to make the second half

Of the game!

[Cheering]

Badou:
remember, play defensive.

Keep rhudi and his team locked
down until I get there.

Lady rataxes:
run along, darling.

Mop the field
with those grazers.

Go and get 'im, g*ng!

Babar:
lady rataxes, I trust
you're feeling better.

Much better, thank you.

High hippo:
may we begin,
your majesty?

Time is ticking.
Tick-a-ticking!

[Royal trumpets sound]

[Trumpeting becomes faster]

This is...!
This is...!

Brilliant! Wonderful!

A marvellous time saver!
Marvellous!

That pipsqueak prince isn't
going to spoil my plan!

C'mon ratty.
Let's go!

[Effort grunts]

Zawadi, don't!

Agh!

Score!

[Groans]

♪♪

All this running...
Making me dizzy!

My petite peach pit!

Whaaaaa!

Oh!

The royal trunk
is sorely smudged!

I'll have to paint it
again!

I'm terribly sorry.

I suppose there's nothing
we can do,

But wait here until
the portrait is fixed.

Another delay!

But what about
the lion luau?

The aardvark anniversary?

The baboon ballet?!

I know something
we can do, papi.

Hmmm. That's a good idea,
badou.

Honored guests, please join us
at the kicker ball field.

Whaaaaat?

King babar, this is-

Badou:
as soon as the portrait
is fixed,

We'll come back and finish
the ceremony. I promise!

[Running footsteps]

Lady rataxes:
fix it! Fix it now!

Yay! Hooray!

Loser!
Booo!

[Humming]

Ahem.

Yeah! Ha ha!

Haza!

[Humming]

Hmph.

[Kicking grunt]

Ms. Strich:
yeah team!

Hooray!

Lady rataxes:
faster! Faster!

[Scared whimpering]

Agh!

Whoa!

Lady rataxes:
stoooooppp!

The portrait is finished!

Prince badou must
come back to the ceremony!

No! Let him finish
the game!

Yes! Yes!
Let him finish!

Ahem.

Well, badou?
What do you think?

Oh my!

Papi, I promised to go back
when the portrait was ready.

But 'bu, we can't
win without you!

We can't win without
you, 'bu!

Sure you can!
Zawadi!

Zawadi:
'bu, I need more practice.

Try keeping both feet
together next time.

You'll have more control.

Huh?

What? So I like to learn
my teammates moves.

[Giggles]

Badou:
ta-da!

[Applause]

Whoa! Agh!

Oof!

I'm very proud
of you, badou!

Congratulations,
prince badou!

Pity you couldn't make
the kicker ball game.

I understand you wanted
to use a new move.

I used a captain's best move,
lady rataxes.

I trusted my team.

[Laughs]

Chiku:
the grazers won!
We won, badou!

Munroe:
zawadi scored the victory
goal with her zebra zing!

Badou:
I knew you could do it!

Yay, zawadi!

[Giggles]

[Groans]

It was a rockin' sh*t.

I never saw it coming.

Now that is a tusk-tastic
portrait!

Yay! Hooray!
Whooo!

[Chuckling]
