Celeste:
lord and lady rataxes,

What a pleasure
to see you both. We-

Lady rataxes:
this is hardly a proper welcome
for a king!

No rhino national anthem!

No honour guard!
No snacks! Hmph!

Our meeting is about
a very simple matter,

It will only take
a minute.

Rataxes:
that's no excuse
for not giving us

The full royal treatment,
babar,

And that means snacks!

Why don't I make a quick trip
to the bazaar.

Lady rataxes:
oh! I'd better come with you
to make sure you get enough!

Celeste:
oh!

A royal visit?

I must find out
what they're meeting about!

Aggghhhh!

Ambassador crocodylus,
can we help you?

Rataxes:
banish him to the slogs,
babar!

Show this lowly
mud-skipper

What happens when he tries
to spy on kings!

I... Was...
Inspecting the pillar!

Uh, it's fine, by the way!
You're welcome!

Agghhhh!

If we were in rhinoland,

You'd be a pair of boots
by now,

You slithering slime tail!

Slime tail?

They think just
because they're kings

They're better than me?

Well, I'll show them.

One day,
I will have my revenge!

Oof!

Ungh!

Whoa!

Chiku and badou:
woo-hoo!

[Soft thud]

Badou:
oops! Sorry, chiku,
I'll get it!

Unnnghhh!

Hey! What's this?

It looks old!

Chiku:
it was probably put way up there
out of reach

For a reason, bu.

Maybe we shouldn't
touch it.

Badou:
okay, we'll just look at it.

Chiku: coooooool!
Badou: tusktastic!

Badou:
it says, "king dancer."

Chiku:
um... Bu,

I thought we were only gonna
look at it.

Badou:
don't you wonder
what it sounds like?

Chiku:
yes, but let's ask
your papi's permission before-

[Plays king dancer]

Wha? Whoa! Agh!

[Unsteady grunts]

Why... Am i...
Dancing?!

Someone is playing
king dancer!

[King dancer plays]

[Grunting]

[Loud metallic clang]

Badou:
was that an earthquake?

Chiku:
no! It was king babar
and lord rataxes dancing.

They were dancing!

"King dancer."
Dancing kings!

Nits and gnats!

Playing this thing
makes them dance?

They follow it too!

They were dancing
right towards us,

Like they were puppets
on a string!

We'd better tell king babar
what we've done, bu.

Let's go tell him.

But if we tell papi
we'll get in big trouble!

Let's just put it back
where we found it

And forget this ever happened,
okay, chiku?

Chiku:
okay.

[Sly chuckle]

Crocodylus:
like puppets on a string!

And I will be
their puppet master!

[Laughs gleefully]

Rataxes:
what's going on?!

Who's this "king dancer"
you were babbling about?

It's an ancient flute

That has some
very interesting powers.

[King dancer plays]

Whooooaah!
Noooooooo!

Rataxes:
make it stop, babar!

Babar:
I wish I could, rataxes!

Rataxes:
wha?!

Whoaaaaa!

Both: huh?
[Hear king dancer playing]

[King dancer plays]

[Chuckles slyly]

Chiku:
crocodylus?!

How did he know about
king dancer, bu?

How'd he know?

[Groans] he must have
seen me playing it!

Rataxes:
yooowwwww!

Whooooaaaaa!

Whooooaaaaa!

Agh!

Agh!

Urgh! Ungh!

[King dancer continues playing]

Whooooaaaaa!
Wha?!

[Playing king dancer]

Oof!

Badou:
we'll protect you, papi!

What about me?!

Badou,
someone has king dancer!

I know, papi.
It's crocodylus.

This is my fault.

I played it
without asking permission

And he must have
been watching.

[Music stops]
oh!

[Panting]

How do you like them coconuts?!

Call me "slime tail,"
will you?!

Babar:
king dancer doesn't [panting]
belong to you, ambassador.

Please return it.

So soon?

Oh, but my concert
has barely begun!

I'll distract him
so you can grab king dancer.

Ambassador,
if lord rataxes apologizes

For calling you names,

Will you give king dancer
to my papi?

Rataxes:
a rhino never says sorry!

Hand it over you,
slime-tailed mud skipper!

Agh!

[King dancers plays]
whoooooaaaaa!

Rataxes:
you'll pay for this!

Babar:
grab that flute, badou!

Badou:
don't worry, papi,
I'll get it!

[Ground rumbles,
birds caw]

[King dancer plays]

Babar and rataxes:
whooooaaaaa! Whooooaaaaa!

Whooooaaaaa!

[Music stops]

Agh!
Whoa!
[Splash]

Crocodylus:
[laughs]

Who's a mud skipper now?
[Laughs]

Chiku:
get him, bu!
Let's get him!

Ungh!
Whooooooaaa!

Crocodylus:
[starts playing king dancer]

[Sputtering and coughing]

Badou:
I have to fix this, chiku!

How can I make crocodylus
stop playing?

Chiku:
sniffle-thistle?

Tusktastic!

[King dancer plays]

Aggghhhhhh!

Rataxes and babar:
aggghhhh! Whooooaaaaa!

Babar:
sorry!

[Gasps]

Rataxes: whooooaaaaa!
Babar: excuse us!

[Playing king dancer]

[Blows sniffle-thistle]

[Gasps,
stifles a sneeze]

[Sneezes,
flute honks and squeals]

Babar and rataxes:
agh! Whoooooaaaaa!

Whooooaaaaa!

Nits and gnats!
That only made it worse!

He's leading them
towards the bazaar!

[King dancer plays]
whooooaaaaaa!

Whooooaaaaa!
Aggggghhhhh!

Crocodylus:
muck and mire!

[Pants]
revenge is exhausting!

Rataxes:
you're gonna... [Wheezes]
regret this... [Pants]

You... [Snores]

Babar:
[winded] you've had your fun,
ambassador.

Chiku and badou:
yeah!

Babar:
now... Give me king dancer.

[Winded] not so fast,
king twinkle-toes.

What do I get
in return?

You get to catch
your breath.

You really need
to catch your breath!

Chiku's right.

You can't keeping blowing
into that thing forever!

Maybe I can!
[Gleeful chortle]

[King dancer plays]

Whooooaaaaa!

Badou:
grab it, chiku!

[Struggling grunts]

Whooooaaaaa! Oof!

Whooooaaaaa!

Now what, bu?

He'll keep the kings
dancing forever!

He's gonna make them
dance forever!

Kings! That's it!

Chiku! You just gave me
a tusktastic idea!

[King dancer plays]

Babar:
excuse us.

Mmm. [Gasps]
oh my!

Babar: sorry!
Lady rataxes: aggghh!

My tarts!

Agggghhhhh!

Eeeeeeeek!

Great tusks!
Oh!

Babar:
I'll explain later, dear!

Ratty?! Why didn't he ask me
to dance? Hmph!

Babar:
[grunting]

Badou:
okay, ambassador!
You win!

The town can't take
any more shaking!

Papi, I think this would be
the perfect time

To make crocodylus
king of celesteville.

Babar:
yes! That is a tusktastic idea.

Cornelius:
crocodylus? King?

Surely you can't be serious,
great heart?

What a brilliant idea!

I demand that you make me
king of celesteville

Or very soon...

There won't be a celesteville!

[Cackles evilly]

Whooooaaaaaa!
[King dancer plays]

I hereby proclaim crocodylus
the new king of celesteville!

[Gleeful laughter]
just what I've always wanted!

Long live king crocodylus!

This calls for a celebration!

Would anyone care
to... Dance?

Huh? No! Wait!

Aaggghhhhh!

Rataxes:
aggghhh!

Where's your crown,
babar?

And why aren't you dancing?

Babar:
crocodylus is king now...

Unless he's having
second thoughts.

The crown is mine!

No take-backs!

Oh!

[Yelps in pain]

Lord rataxes, you should give
the ambassador your crown too!

Give away my crown?
Not a chance!

Lady rataxes:
do I have to do everything
around here?!

Yaaaggghhhhhh!

Whooooaaa!

Two crowns means you have
to dance twice as fast!

Twice as fast!

[Playing faster]

Crocodylus:
agghhhh! Aggghhhhhhh!

Aggghhhhhhhhh!

Owieeee!

I quit! I quit!
I quiiiit!

[Giggles] good plan, bu.
Good plan!

I have an even better plan.

From now on,

I'll never take something
that doesn't belong to me

Without asking permission.

You're not the only one
who learned that lesson today,

Badou.

[Woozy groan]

Aggghhhh! Ohh!

Oh my aching...
[Inhales deeply] everything.

Now lord rataxes,
about our meeting...

Lady rataxes:
not so fast, king babar.

First, ratty and I
are going dancing!

Hit it, chiku!

Rataxes:
whooooaaaaaaoooaaaaa...

[Both laugh]

Ms. Strich:
attention! Hang that higher!

Oh! No, no!
More icing!

You missed a spot!

[Gasps]

Everything must be parfait
for the party tonight!

Ah, just think...

Years ago, babar and celeste
were married on this very day!

To the royal gift tent!
Vite, vite!

Snaggle-eye jack:

monkey mate,

Ripe for the pickin'!

[Snickering]

Chiku:
king babar and queen celeste

Will love your hearts-are-wild
jungle orchid, bu.

They'll love it!

Badou:
I hope so.

I want to give them
the perfect present

For their anniversary.

Chiku: agh!
Badou: [gasps]

Someone else got them
the same thing...

Only bigger!

Okay. This is
the perfect present!

Royal toffee taffy treats!

Celeste:
no, no, no!

The anniversary gifts are
to be delivered to the beach.

[Grunting]

Not again!

Celeste:
[weary sigh]
this anniversary party

Has me completely frazzled,
babar!

Babar:
invitations, decorations,
dancing, fireworks...

A blimpliner fly-past,
cornelius?

[Celeste sighs]

Cornelius:
but your subjects expect
a royal celebration to be...

Well, royal!

Babar:
it will be very different
from our first anniversary.

Remember, dear?

Celeste:
our nice, quiet,
just-the-two-of-us picnic!

Babar and celeste:
wouldn't that be lovely?!

Chiku! I have a tusktastic idea
for the perfect present!

[Giggles]

Ms. Strich:
arretez! Who are you?

We be the present crew,
deliverin' booty-

Er, gifts.

Who be you?

Ms. Strich:
oh! Ms. Strich,
the royal party planner,

And you are not
in my plans!

Aggghhhhh! Whooooaaaaa!

Arrrr!

Badou:
excuse me,
but who are you?

And what are you doing
at the gift tent?

Uh... We be, uh...
Party planners!

Uh, ms. Strich hired us!

Chiku:
where is ms. Strich?

Er, she be busy...
P-p-p-plannin'.

[Doubtful]
party planners?

That's... Tusktastic!

Arrr!

Badou:
you can help us set up
our picnic!

Take these over
to lookie loo point.

[Groans]

There's something odd about
those party planners, chiku.

I wanna keep an eye on them
until ms. Strich gets back.

Ms. Strich:
let me out! Let me out!

Uh-oh! Whoa-oh!

Oh dear!

Babar:
how thoughtful, badou!

A nice, quiet picnic!

Celeste:
it's like a safari camp,

Far away from all the hustle
and bustle!

Badou:
hey!

Could you help us serve
the food and drinks

Before you go?

Snaggle-eye jack:
arr! I mean, our pleasure,
yer highness.

[Chuckles then mutters angrily]

Arrr!

I'm sure I've seen
those two before.

Celeste:
isn't this romantic?

[Hushed] arr!
We'll serve 'em fast

Then scoot fer the loot.

Arrrgh! Yo ho! Owww!

Agh!

Owww!

Celeste:
what a fun way
to serve coconut milk

And mango chips,
badou!

Babar:
mmm! Delicious!

Mmm!

[Struggling grunts]

Chiku:
they're awfully clumsy
for party planners.

Oh! Whoa!
Oof!

I know, chiku,
but we've got to watch them.

Something tells me
they're up to something!

Maybe we should
tell your papi, bu.

I can't bother papi
and nanna

During their nice
quiet picnic.

We'll be right back
with the sandwiches!

Babar:
no need to hurry, badou,

We're having a lovely time.

Badou: wait!
Both: huh?

We need you to help serve

The banana and jam
safari sandwiches.

We needs to abandon
this picnic

And get the loot
afore he raises the alarm.

Arrrr!

Badou and chiku:
agghhh! Hey! Whoa!

Badou:
we have to follow them,
chiku!

Right after
we serve the sandwiches!

Babar:
is everything all right,
badou?

Badou:
perfect! I hope you like
the safari sandwiches.

Celeste:
these safari sandwiches

Do look like they've been
on an adventure!

This be as clever a plan
as ever there was.

This switch-flipper
will set off the fireworks

And we'll run off
with the booty

While everybody's
watching the show!

Badou:
you two seem to be spending
an awful lot of time

Sneaking around
the gift tent.

Er, we're not sneakin'!

We just be...
Guardin' it!

Yeah!
Ms. Strich's orders!

Aye! She was fearin'
the loot-

Er, the gifts
might get plundered!

Badou:
[sighs] I was really hoping
ms. Strich would be back by now.

[Light tapping]
ms. Strich: oh! Hello?

Who's there?
[Light tapping]

Bonjooouur!

Badou:
guards?

Could you please stand watch
outside the tent?

We don't want "the loot-
er, gifts to be plundered."

There! Now you can keep
helping us with the picnic.

[Ticking]

Chiku:
hold these, please.

[Timer dings,
fireworks whistle]

[Fireworks burst and pop]

Both:
huh?

Badou: hey!
Chiku: aggghhhh!

Celeste:
strange...

The fireworks aren't supposed
to go off until midnight.

Worker:
ooh!

Snaggle eye and monkey mate:
[laughing]

Oof!

[Gasps]

Chiku:
they went that way, bu!
That way!

Badou:
triple chocolate
paradise pie!

[Panting]

Snaggle-eye jack:
prince badou!
Thanks for the loot!

[Laughing and snickering]

Badou:
pirates?!
I knew I'd seen them before!

[Laughing]

Chiku:
they're getting away
with all the presents!

Badou:
not if I can help it!

Prepare to launch
lookie loo!

[Grunts]

Babar:
what's going on, badou?

Badou:
the party planners
are really pirates

And they're stealing
all your loot-

Er, gifts!

Babar:
why didn't you tell us

You were having pirate problems
sooner?

Badou:
I didn't want to spoil
your picnic!

Babar, dear,
shall we lend a trunk?

After you,
my love.

Badou:
[struggling grunts]

Babar and celeste:
[inhale deeply]

[Water sputters]

Badou: thumpin'!
Chiku: woo-hoo! Yeah!

The pirates are still
way ahead of us!

Way ahead!

Badou:
this peanut dip
will slow them down!

Agh!

Whoa!

Arr! The motor be all gummed up
in peanut dip!

Man the oars!

[Panting]

Aghh!

Owww!

Arrr.

They're gainin' on us!
Paddle harder, snaggle eye!

[Panting]

Celeste:
ready, badou?

Badou:
ready, nanna!

Woo-hoo!

Pirates:
aaggghhhhhh! Yikes!

Aggghhhhhh!

Babar:
whoa!

Babar and celeste:
[grunting]

Oof!

We plundered that loot
fair and square!

Celeste:
oh, I think not.

En garde!

Monkey mate:
agghhhh!

[Fighting grunts]

Monkey mate:
whoa! [Giggles] stop!

No more!
[Laughing]

You show him, papi!

Tusktastic moves, nanna!

Chiku:
badou!

Woo-hoo!

Agghhhh!
[Splash]

[Spits]

Badou:
a-ha!

[Fighting grunts]

Snaggle eye jack:
huh?

Arrrr!
Oof!

Whoa! Whooooaaaaa!

[Gasps]

Whooooaaaaa!
Oof!

Snaggle-eye jack:
arr! You may have scuttled
snaggle-eye jack for now,

But I'll be back
to plunder another day!

Agghhhh!
[Splash]

[Gasp for air]

Ms. Strich:
ha-ha!

Never mess with
a royal party planner!

Chaarrrrgge!

Whooooaaaaa!

Arrr!

Babar:
well done, everyone!

Badou:
not everyone, papi.

My gift was a total disaster!

A disaster?
Not at all, badou!

What about the spilled
mango chips,

The squashed sandwiches,
and the messy paradise pie?

They were all wonderful...

Because you made them
for us.

Your gift came
from your heart, badou.

That's what
made it special.

I'd say it was
the most perfect gift ever!

Wouldn't you, dear?

I certainly would!

Thank you, badou.

Badou:
thumpin'! Thanks for helping me
with my present

And with the pirates!

Chiku:
you're perfectly welcome, bu!

Perfectly!

[Guests chatter,
music plays]

Woo-hoo!

Cornelius:
oh my!

[Laughing]

Woo-hoo!

[Laughing]

[Fireworks pop]
