03x11 - The Tree of Life

[bunniefuu]

The Lion Guard.

"Friends to the end."

Come on, everybody, keep going.

Kion sure is in a
hurry this morning.

Well, we are getting pretty
close to the tree of life.

Yep, and I don't mind
moving fast for a change.

You said it, Fuli. Zuka zama!

Are we gonna run the whole way?

Yeah. Great idea.

Whoo!

Kion, race you
to the tree of life.

Sure. Just don't get in my way.

Me? Never.

Oops.

Ah. Bunga.

Oh, this is pretty.

Poa.

Perfect place for a break.

Yep.

Oh, yeah.

Guys, who said
anything about a break?

Kion, they could
probably use a rest.

We can rest when we get to the
tree of life. We're so close now.

Makini.

Shwari, Kion. How
about some tuliza?

Fine.

Feel better?

I'm fine. I'll be better when
we get to the tree of life.

Come on, everybody, let's go.

Oh, looks like the break's over.

Yep, before it even got started.

Huh, the tuliza didn't
do him much good.

I know. It's not
working like it used to.

Maybe Kion's right.

Maybe we really do need to
get him to the tree of life soon.

Yeah, before the venom
in his scar totally takes over

and turns him
evil, just like scar.

Oh, Bunga, don't
even think that!

You said it, makini.

Rafiki said Kion could change.

Stop knowing right from wrong.

Maybe it started.

Bunga, Kion's
not gonna turn evil.

Now, come on.

I hope you're right!

So, makini, are there friendly
animals at the tree of life?

Oh, yes. All the animals I
remember were super friendly.

Oh, I can't wait to meet them.

Nothing I like more
than making new friends.

Everyone, look.

On the cliff, baby goose.

Oh, no, it... it
fell from its nest.

- We gotta save it.
- Beshte.

Right. Zuka zama!

Guys? Hey.

I got you. I got you.

Got you.

Nice catch, Beshte.

Oh, it's so cute!

You okay, little guy?

Okay, he's safe
now. So, let's...

Shouldn't we put
him back in his nest?

His mom might be worried.

Fine.

- Anga.
- Yep.

Come on, little guy.

We've really got to get...

Heads up. We got another one.

Oh, no!

I got you.

I missed. Beshte.

I got her. I got her.

Oh.

Zuka zama!

Ta-da.

What are you doing?

Unhand my child.

Okay, okay.

Here, she's fine.

Mama, I did it.

Good job, sweetheart.
I knew you could.

Where's your brother?

We put him back up in your
nest. Glad we could help.

Help?

Are we missing something here?

Maybe that's how a
goose says thank you.

I don't think so.

Oh, no.

Your babies weren't
falling, were they?

They were just leaving
the nest for the first time.

How else are they
gonna get to the water?

I finally got him to jump and
now he's got to do it all over again.

Oh, I'm really sorry. We
were just trying to help.

Help? Help.

False alarm, I guess.

No kidding. From now
on, let's not waste our time

helping animals
who don't need help.

It's okay, Beshte.

I know you were trying
to do the right thing.

Since when does Kion call
helping someone a waste of time?

That was weird,

but he's not himself today.

Or maybe he's not his old self.

What do you mean, little b?

His scar. Remember
what Rafiki said,

about how Kion could change?

I think Kion just wants
to get to the tree of life.

We better make it there in time!

What is that?

Peacocks.

Huh?

Here we go. Five,
six, seven, eight.

Never seen anything like this.

Sounds like the peacocks are
doing their traditional display dance.

What are they displaying?

Ados.

Hey, watch it.

Ah, I see now.

Peacocks, we're trying
to get through here.

Sorry, can't stop now.
All part of the tradition.

Poa.

We don't have time for this.

Coming through.
Lion Guard, follow me.

Seriously?

Excuse me.

Sorry.

Hey.

Watch where you're going.

You watch where you're going!

What? He didn't watch
where he was going?

Peacocks think
they own the place.

Hey, you guys.

You think Kion pushed
that peacock on purpose?

Looked like it.

No, Kion wouldn't do that.

The old Kion wouldn't,
but the new Kion might.

The new Kion? What do you mean?

His scar.

- It's turning him evil.
- Evil?

Kion is not turning
evil. Now, come on.

I'm telling you.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Kion.

If we keep getting slowed down, we're
never gonna get to the tree of life.

- Poa.
- What? What's poa?

That guy. Look up.

Hey there. I'm
Beshte. Who are you?

My name is yun mibu.

Where did you learn
to hang like that?

Like this?

This is nothing.

Wow!

Oh, now I see you.

You must be a clouded leopard.

That's right. I am.

Big deal. I can hang
from my hind feet, too.

Check this out.

Yeah.

Okay, I was wrong.

Not again.

Hey, Kion, meet our new friend.

Yun mibu.

We don't have
time for new friends.

Um, they were just saying hello.

I wasn't taking to you.

Kion, why did you
scare him like that?

Beshte, we can't stop every
time you see a new animal.

I was just being nice.

That's the problem.
You're slowing us down.

Stop being nice.

"Stop being nice"? I...

I don't know how to do that?

Kion, have some tuliza.

It'll help you feel better.

Forget it, makini.

The tuliza's not
working anymore.

Evil!

Kion, you're out of control.

Am I? All I want to do
is get to the tree of life

so I can get better,

but everyone keeps
slowing me down.

We're not trying
to slow you down.

We're trying to
help you get there.

Feels like I'm
dragging you along.

Kion, your scar hurts, so
you're not thinking straight.

That's why you
were mean to Beshte.

I'm not being mean.

You kinda are.

Kion.

Maybe this is one of those
times when I should take over.

- Take over?
- Until you feel better.

I'm the leader
of the guard, Fuli,

and I don't think so.

Don't do this, Kion.

Are... Are they going to fight?

Looks like it.

I'm glad I can't watch.

But Kion wouldn't
fight Fuli. Would he?

Of course, he would.

This is what I've
been talking about.

It's all happening right
now just like Rafiki said.

What's "just like Rafiki said"?

He said if the venom
stays inside you too long,

you won't know the difference
between right and wrong.

- Yeah, but...
- And it's happened.

You've been acting mean all day.

I... I have?

You did tell us not
to stop and help.

You knocked over that peacock.

And scared that clouded leopard.

And worst of all,
you yelled at Beshte.

Sorry, buddy,
you're turning evil.

You really think I'm evil?

Totally! But don't feel bad.

You can't help
it. It's your scar.

Guys, you all think
I'm turning evil?

Well...

I... I don't know if
I'd say evil... No.

Uh, yeah.

Don't listen to Bunga.
Nobody thinks you're evil.

And once we get
to the tree of life...

Unless it's too late.

Good Kion might be gone forever.

I'm not evil!

Or... maybe I am.

Kion, come back.

Don't worry,
Beshte, he'll be back.

He just needs time to himself.

But which Kion will he
be when he comes back?

Good Kion?

Or evil Kion?

- Bunga.
- What? We all saw it happening.

Somebody had to say it.

No. Nobody had to say it.

Kion's not evil.

You sure?

I am. Kion will never turn evil.

Beshte's right.

Oh, come on, little b.

You know in your heart
that Kion will never turn evil.

I hope you're right.

Uh, Fuli, we are still going
to the tree of life, right?

Not to make this about
me, but what about me?

Of course, we're
still going, Ono.

As soon as Kion comes back.

What if I really
am turning evil?

Just like scar did.

I should talk to
grandfather Mufasa.

Oh, my scar.

I can't let grandfather
see me like this.

I look just like scar.

You have the Mark of
evil just like me, Kion.

Accept your destiny.

There is no other choice.

No, you're wrong, scar.

Sisi ni sawa, Kion.

We're not the same.

I may look like you,
but I'll never act like you.

Except, I guess, I kinda
have been acting mean today.

I gotta go apologize.

Whoa!

Great.

I'm getting worried about Kion.

Me, too. I hope he
didn't get lost or hurt.

Maybe we should look for him.

Not that I would be much help.

He has been gone for a while.

Anga, see if you can spot him.

Yep. Anga lin...

Hey, hey, hey, look
for signs of evil roars.

Trees knocked
down, terrified animals,

exploding volcanoes,
that kind of thing.

Bunga, if Kion roared, I
think we would have heard it.

- Good point.
- Yep.

Anga linga.

Nothing. Nothing.

What?

Kion.

Kion.

Anga.

Am I glad to see you.

- Like some help?
- Yeah, that'd be great.

Okay.

Can't get close enough.

Maybe I can reach you.

No use. Hang on. I'll be back.

Thanks, Anga.

Just, uh, don't be too long.

- Found him.
- Great.

Not really. Come on.

Let's go.

Kion's down there,
hanging from a branch.

Anga, is that you? Yep.

We're all here. Hi, Kion.

Don't worry. We'll help you.

Just hang in there.

But, Fuli, what if
this is an evil trap?

Ah, Bunga.

- Just sayin'.
- Thanks, guys.

Listen, about what happened
back there, I really didn't mean to...

Kion, don't think
about that now.

Let's just get you
off that branch.

Sounds good. Thanks.

He's too close to the
overhang. I can't reach him.

I could get close enough,
but I couldn't carry him.

Ooh, maybe I can reach him.

Just out of reach.

Sorry, Kion.

Hey, Bunga, it's okay.

And you know what I said before
about you turning evil and stuff?

Yeah.

Are you?

I don't think so.

Even if I was
kinda acting like it.

Just checking.

And just so you know,
even if you do turn evil,

I'll still be your best friend.

Thanks, Bunga.

Okay, Fuli, what's the plan?

Someone's gotta climb down
and help pull him back up.

Oh, maybe I can.

You're definitely strong enough, Beshte,
but you're not much of a climber.

I wasn't thinking me, Fuli. I
had someone else in mind.

Uh, I can climb down there.

But you didn't tell me
it was the scary guy

who needed to be rescued.

Don't worry, yun mibu,
Kion's really a nice guy.

He was just feeling
kinda evil today,

but he's over that now.

Please help him. Please.

Mmm, Kion, is it?

Yeah, that's me,

and I think I owe
you an apology.

Uh, how about a
promise, instead?

A promise? Yes.

No more growling.

No more growling. I promise.

Then let's get
you up from there.

- Are you sure you can do this?
- Oh, yeah.

Clouded leopards are about
the best climbers there are, Kion.

Common knowledge, really.

Wow, I see what you mean, Ono.

Reach out. I've got you.

Okay. Here goes.

Heyvi kabisa.

- Uh-oh.
- "Uh-oh" what? "Uh-oh" what?

Jump!

Got you.

I think...

Anga linga!

Phew. Thank you.

Nice save, Anga.

Way to go, yun mibu.
I knew you could do it.

You gotta teach me how
to use my tail like that.

Ah, you're gonna
need a bigger tail.

Thanks again.

Is there anything I can
do for you in return?

Just remember to never
growl at a clouded leopard.

We don't like it.

I'll remember.

Bye, everybody. See you, Beshte.

Bye, yun mibu.

Everyone, I don't
know what to say

other than I'm really sorry
about the way I was acting.

Especially you, Beshte.

I was really mean to you.

It's all right, Kion.

It wasn't you talking.
It was your scar.

Which reminds me...

Maybe the tuliza's not
working like it used to,

but it can't hurt.

You're right.

Thanks, makini.

I know we lost a
lot of time today

and it was totally my fault,

but if we leave now,
we can make up for...

Hold it, Kion. I'm still
in charge, remember?

And you need to rest.

You've been through a lot today.

Better listen to the
cheetah in charge.

Tree of life's not
going anywhere, Kion.

Soon, Kion. We'll move on soon.

But we're so close.

Shwari, Kion.

With a little rest, you'll
feel like yourself again.

Shwari.

Shwari.
