Badou:
papi, coming to the bazaar
with you and nana

Is like going on
a treasure hunt!

That's true, badou.

You never know
what you'll find

If you keep
your eyes open!

lady rataxes:
that's mine!

I saw it first!

My dear lady,

I need it for
the royal crocodile band!

Papi, how come you put up
with cranky crocs

And rude rhinos?

Learning to get along
with your neighbours

Can have its own rewards,
badou.

[Struggling grunts]

Whaaaa!

[Gasps]

[Music box plays a song]

Celeste:
babar, do you remember
that tune?

It's the elephlamenco!

Ah!
How could I forget?

We danced it
at our wedding!

That song isn't the ele...
Elo... Whatever!

That song is
the rhino rumba!

Crocodylus:
you're all wrong.

The song is
the crocodile clog!

Whoa!

Papi! Nana!

Isn't this queen cleo?

That proves the song
is the elephlamenco!

[Annoyed groans]

Will you trade
two moon pearls

For the music box?

the past should be treasured

As I treasure you,
my dear.

Aw...
[Giggles]

[Gasps] treasure!
Now, I remember!

There are words
to the song!

♪ Treasured neighbours,
gather all, ♪

♪ To hear the song
of friendship hall ♪

Friendship hall?
Thumpin'!

I bet that's
where queen cleo

Hid another one of her
lost treasures!

Maybe the song is a clue
to how to find it!

Isn't there an old music book
in your study, papi?

We could look up
the rest of the words!

Capital idea, badou.

Would you care
to join us?

Crocodylus:
er...

I have a birdie bonk
match

With the high hippo
of honey harbor.

Must run!

And um...

We're late for
our his-and-hers mud bath

At the big lake spa.
[Giggles]

Well, it seems like
we have a treasure to find!

Here is the song!

Ya-da, ya-da, ya-da...

Friendship hall...

"From red reed,
let the gold path slide."

[Chuckles]

"From red reed,
let the gold path slide."

Red reed!
I know where that is!

badou:
hurry, papi! Nana!

Urghhh!

Babar:
I must remember to have
those door hinges oiled.

Badou:
[gasps]

Someone tore a page
out of this music book!

Celeste:
only the first verse is left.

♪ From red reed,
let the gold path slide ♪

♪ Gather neighbours
from far and wide ♪

badou:
that must be
the red reed swamp

where a gold path
will lead us

right to queen cleo's treasure.

I want that treasure,
ratty!

Whatever it is,
I want it!

Of course,
my delicate rhubarb leaf.

The elephants will lead us
right to it!

Crocodylus:
any crocodile
worth the scales of his tail

Knows about red reed swamp!

[Chuckles]

Now, what did
the first part say?

Something about a path.

babar:
mind your step, my dear.

Agh!
Irritating elephants!

Muck and mire!

I'm mired in the muck!

heeeeelp!

Celeste:
looks like the ambassador
took a wrong turn!

Heeeelp!

Ambassador,
isn't that the page

From my music book?

Uh...
Only half the page!

Then maybe we should
only pull you

Halfway out of the swamp!

[Chuckles]

Shhh!

Badou:
nits and gnats!

I don't see
how we can reach him.

The song mentioned
a path.

♪ From red reed,
let the gold path slide ♪

But there is no path!

Just some red reeds
and yellow rocks.

Hang on!
Yellow rocks.

"Let the gold path slide."

Rock slide!

Aghhhh!

[Grunts]

Whoa!

Aaagghhhhh!

Badou:
a golden path across
the safe part of the swamp!

Crocodylus:
huh?

[Grunts of effort]

Whoa!

Oof!

[Groans]

Hey!

Badou: come on!
Crocodylus: [groans]

What is the next verse
of the song, badou?

♪ Climb the lazy lion's back ♪

♪ The slowest road
is the fastest track ♪

Where can we find a lazy...
Oh!

Babar:
well, badou, do we take
the stairs or the slide?

The stairs will be
too slow!

'Bu, the song said,

"The slowest road
is the faster track."

Now's our chance,
ratty!

Oh!

Hey!

Whaaaaa! Oof!

lady rataxes:
help! Help us!

help! Help us!

[Groans]

I demand you get us
out of here!

Uh, we should leave
them here!

Babar:
we didn't leave you
in that swamp.

Lady rataxes:
ungh! Hey!

Babar:
since we're all here,

Why don't we act like
good neighbours

and work together
to find the treasure.

Fine!

What does the next part
of the song say?

Badou:
♪ from the tallest tree
beneath the sun ♪

♪ Take the path at its base
and your journey is done! ♪

There's a big old tree
just past the thorn thicket!

Come on!

Crocodylus:
[laughs]

Badou:
see? They're not
good neighbours!

We have to b*at them
to that tree!

Babar:
think for a moment, badou.

Queen cleo wrote that clue
a long time ago.

New trees grow.

Old trees fall.

Ha! So they're probably going
the wrong way.

[Gasps]
right into the thorn thicket.

Babar:
that's right.

I suppose we should get
a jump on them.

Yes! No.

Nits and gnats!

If they get lost
in the thicket,

They might never find
their way out.

[Sighs]
we should go help.

Crocodylus:
that looks like
a way through!

[Giggling]

[Giggling]

Lady rataxes:
it's a dead end.

Which way did we come in?

I'm all turned around!

[Grunts]

Oh!

[Slithering sound]

[Loud hiss]
all: whaaaaa!

Badou:
[gasps]

Nana, can you stay here
and lead us back out

With the sound
of your trumpet?

Of course, dear.
Be careful!

Careful, badou.

Squeeze:
who wants a hug?

Rhinos and crocodylus:
aaaggghhhhh!

That squeeze is
a slippery customer.

Maybe he likes music.

[Music box plays]

Oooooh!

I remember my mother
hiss-singing that song

When I was just
a little slider.

The sss-snake sss-samba!

[squeeze hums to himself]

Whoa!

[Music stops playing]

Huh? [Hisses]

Papi!

Babar:
whoa!

[Fierce hiss]

Badou, run!

Babar: unnggghhhh!
Squeeze: [hissing]

Badou:
papi! This way!

[Grunts]

Let's get out of here!

[Babar trumpets,
celeste trumpets back]

This way!
[Trumpets]

Good job, badou!

Badou:
now, let's go find queen cleo's
tall tree.

Look, you can still see
a faint old trail here.

Lady rataxes:
all that running around
and we end up here,

Just a coconut's throw
from the palace?

Outrageous!

What? Huh? Visitors?

Babar:
sorry, old friend.

We're on a treasure hunt

And it seems to be leading us
in circles.

What's the next clue
in that silly song?

♪ The truest treasure
can be found ♪

♪ In friendship hall
beneath the ground ♪

The rest of the words
are covered in mud.

[Groans]

Gallop:
♪ to find the place
where all may meet ♪

♪ Use your trunk,
horn, claws, and... ♪

♪ Your claws and feet ♪

Badou:
gallop! You know the song?

Well, of course,
little hatchling!

It's called
the two-tortoise tango.

But the only place 'round here
that is beneath the ground

Is my home.

Rhinos and crocodylus:
ahhhhh! [Laughing]

I suppose they'll
all be wanting

A cup of
honeybrush tea.

Hmph!

[objects clatter]

I don't see any treasure!

This isn't the right place!

Badou:
gallop, what are
these marks here?

Sharp eyes,
little hatchling.

You know, I've often
wondered about them.

This one looks
like a trunk!

here's a horn,
and a claw!

Celeste:
♪ just use your trunk,
horns, claws and feet ♪

Maybe if we push
on them...

Lord rataxes:
nothing's happening!

Badou:
of course not!

Because to enter
friendship hall,

You need the help
of friends!

[Everyone gasps,
door rumbles]

Lady rataxes:
mine! The treasure is mine!

Ooh!
I-i'm caught!

Ungh!

[Gasps] help me!

Crocodylus:
ah!

Thank you, dear.

[Sighs with relief]
thank you all.

Badou:
whew! You were right, papi.

Getting along
with your neighbours

Does have its rewards.

Babar:
[chuckles]

Lady rataxes:
where's the treasure?

Babar:
it's all around us!

We're in queen cleo's hall

Where she welcomed
her jungle neighbours

With the truest treasure...

Friendship!

[Music box plays song]

Badou:
lady rataxes,
may I have this rumba?

♪♪

[Bird chirps]

[Bird twitters]

[Blows]

Zephir:
aw, you kids shouldn't bother
with that.

It'll just get dirty again!

Chiku:
are you kidding, dad?

You are kidding, right?
It's coooool!

Badou:
yeah! I wish I could do
something to be a hero.

Something like rescuing
the general's daughter -

[Giggles]
I mean, mom -

From the monster
polomoche!

Rawwwwwr!

That was a long time ago,
chikadee.

How did you get her
back safe?

Polomoche can turn things
to stone!

Did you lead
the monkey army?

That's what I'd do!

Charge!

What I did was try
to sneak up

Without polomoche
seeing me...

Only I tripped over
my own feet!

[Giggles]

But that got
the old monster laughing...

So I kept him laughing.

Then I got him dancing.

He laughed and danced
so hard,

I tired him out!
[Laughing]

And then you called in
the monkey army?

Charge! Right?

Nope-dokey!

As soon as polomoche
fell asleep,

I grabbed
the general's daughter

And tippy-toed away!

And that's how I defeated-

general huc:
polomoche!

chiku:
grandpopper!

He's back, zephir!

In the grove!

the monster has returned!

[Everyone gasps]

Thumpin'!
Let's go chase him away.

We can all be heroes!

General huc:
some monkeys took a ziptram
out to peeler's grove

To get bananas for
tonight's banana jamboree.

Chiku:
best chocolate and banana soup
you'll ever taste, 'bu!

General huc:
except the grove was empty!

Not a picker nor the plucker
to be found.

Show zephir
what you discovered instead.

[Hollow knock]

[Gasps]
stone bananas!

The banana's turned
to stone!

it must be polomoche!

Why would polomoche take over
a banana grove?

chiku:
these aren't just any bananas,
'bu!

These are peelers
grove bananas,

The sweetest,
yummiest bananas

This side of
the thorn thicket!

There are always
two pickers

And a plucker
at the grove.

We need to find
those lads!

Prince badou volunteering
for the mission, general!

Charge!

general huc:
at ease, little trooper.

No one is going back
out there.

But someone has to -

At least,
to take a look around.

Badou's right.

We're just guessing
that polomoche has come back.

I'll tippy-toe
out to the grove,

Have a peek,
and tippy-toe back...

[Thump]
alone.

That way no one else
is in danger.

Aw, nits and gnats.

Chiku:
be careful, dad!

You be careful,
okay?

I will, chickadee.

I'll be back before sunset
for the banana jamboree.

[Tram squeaks]

He said he'd be back
before dark.

General huc:
all right, lads,
spread the word.

The banana jamboree
is cancelled.

I want everyone
on watch tonight.

Don't worry, chiku.

i'll get a message
to king babar

about sending some
of his royal guards

To help with a rescue mission.

Chiku...
It's my fault.

Huh?
Whaddya mean, 'bu?

The general wasn't going
to let anyone

Go back to the grove

Until I said someone
should look around.

It's my fault
your dad is out there.

Don't be silly, 'bu.

He'll come back.

He has to come back.

[Loud thunk,
tram squeaks]

Badou?

Badou:
I'll get your dad back,
chiku!

Chiku:
'buuuuu!

Chiku: 'bu!
Badou: whoa!

'Bu, come... Back?

Whaaaa!

Agghhh! 'Bu!

Not that fast!

Aaagggghhhh! Ow!

Phew!

Don't be a swing-a-ling,
'bu!

You can't go after my dad!
You can't!

Not without me!

Chiku, i-

Nu-uh, badou.

What you told my grandpopper
was right.

Somebody had to go look.

It's not your fault.

Yeah, but chiku...
What if it is?

'Bu, look!

those baskets are always
stuffed full of bananas

To take back
to monkeyville.

[Whispering]
let's go find your dad.

Chiku, you said
the bananas

Were delivered
to monkeyville

In baskets, right?

I showed them to you, 'bu.
You saw them.

Then where did all these crates
come from?

Maybe they belong
to polomoche.

A monster would just
gobble the bananas up,

He wouldn't load them
into crates.

Look at these.

Why would there be
stone carving tools

In the middle
of a banana grove?

I don't think polomoche
is doing any of this!

But he must be, 'bu!
Look!

more bananas turned
to stone.

Hmm...

Aghhh!

Chiku!

'Bu!
It's my dad's hat!

He was in this cage!

[twig snaps nearby]

[Gasps]

Chiku:
run, 'bu!
It's polomoche!

Unnngghh!

[Cage rattles,
door squeaks open]

Grab hold, 'bu!

Badou:
prospero!

Prospero:
agh! What have we here, sly?

More visitors?

Hmm...

Grrrrr...

What's that nasty old
bush pirate doing here?

Where's polomoche?

Polomoche was never here.

A monster who can
turn you to stone

Doesn't need
to set traps.

Prospero has been
using the story

To scare everybody away

While he steals
the bananas!

See the tools?

I bet prospero
carved those bananas

So it looked like the monster
turned them to stone.

Sneaky!

He could sell the bananas
easy, 'bu.

Everybody loves bananas
from peelers grove.

But where's my dad

And the plucker
and pickers?

[Gasps]

Nobody here, sly.

We better check on
our guests

And make sure none escaped.

If we follow prospero,

I bet he leads us
right to them.

C'mon!

Prospero:
[laughs]

Zephir:
you won't get away with this,
prospero!

Prospero:
oh, but I already have!

By morning, I'll have all
the bananas crated up

And ready to fly
out of here.

Then we'll sell the bunch
for a merry mess of money!

[Laughs]

That's dad.

How are we gonna
get him free?

I have a tusktastic
idea.

[leaves rustle]

[Trumpets loudly]

Whoa!

[Cane and lamp clatter]

[Gasps]

Aren't you
the brave little boyo!

Prospero: [growls]
badou: agghhhhh!

Badou:
chiku... Now!

Prospero:
whaaaaaa!

Agh!

Grrrrr...

Whoa! Ooh!

Urrrgghhhhh!
[Key clunks]

Chiku: unngh!
Prospero: ungh!

Ahem!

Urrrgghhh!

Whoa!

Let me out of here!

Badou:
let's go free your dad!

Prospero:
grrr...

[Snorts angrily]

[Captured monkeys gibber]

Zephir:
chickadee!

You shouldn't be here!

Where's prospero?

Oh, he's hanging around...
In his own tree trap!

[Giggles]

Is it polomoche?

Badou:
no! It's a blimpliner!

[laughs]
it must be papi!

All:
yay! Yahoooo!

Babar:
[chuckles]

Well, general,

It looks like
we're a little late

For this rescue.

Badou:
papi, we caught prospero!

Oh no!

But we had him trapped
in there!

We did!

General,
I'll have my rescue team

Search the area
for this would-be monster.

My monkeys will help.

Keep an eye out
for more traps, lads!

This bush pirate
is a tricky customer.

But now, perhaps you two
can tell us

What you're doing out here
chasing monsters?

Badou:
it was my idea that somebody
come here to look around.

That's why zephir
got caught.

But it was a good idea,
badou.

You didn't do
anything wrong saying it.

But I said it because
I thought I'd get the chance

To chase polomoche
and be a hero.

You know... Charge.

Being a hero isn't about
charging in, badou.

It's something that happens

When you put the needs
of others first.

Like you and chiku saving me
and the other monkeys.

And you getting me
out of that trap, 'bu.

Sounds like you
became a hero

Without even trying,
lad.

Babar:
general, did I hear some mention
of a banana jamboree?

General huc:
no reason to cancel it now.

Babar:
I think I know
the perfect reward

For our young monster chasers.

Charge!

General huc:
chocolate and banana soup!

the best
in all of monkeyville!

and for this
special occasion...

Banana statues!

Coooool!

For the heroes
of peelers grove!

[Laughing]

Badou and chiku:
mmm...

[Chiku giggles]

All:
[laugh]
