The Lion King 1 1/22004

Pumbaa:
[reverently] Pride Rock!

Timon:
So majestic.

Pumbaa:
So powerful.

Timon:
So... bizarrely named. [pauses the movie; the silhouettes and the seatbacks appear again] Pumbaa, how can a rock be proud? It's a rock!

Pumbaa:
Well, I think it's because a "pride" is what they call a group of lions.

Timon:
Oh, sure, the *lions* get Pride Rock. And what about us meerkats? Where I come from we didn't have *nothin'* to be proud of. Why: [clears throat; singing] When I was a young meerkat...!

Pumbaa:
[singing] When he was a young meerkat...! [blows Timon off his seatback]

Timon:
[peevishly] Very nice.

Pumbaa:
Thanks!

Timon:
But maybe it'd be safer if I just show 'em where I came from.

Pumbaa:
Oh, boy! Do we get to see where you grew up?!

Timon:
Yeah, Pumbaa, but it ain't pretty. [clicks the remote; the view of Pride Rock switches to a full-screen shot] Please remain seated while the camera is in motion.

[The camera does a super-high-speed truck-out from Pride Rock, past zebras, grasslands, the Elephant Graveyard, the Gorge, marshlands, the desert, and finally stopping at a dry plain of low mounds of dirt, with a tumbleweed blowing across]

Timon:
Here we are: from Pride Rock to the pit of shame. We're so low on the food chain we're underground! But you don't have to take my word for it. I'll just let my fellow meerkats do the talking.
