Zazu:
[stops on a nearby rock] Good morning, sire!

Mufasa:
Good morning, Zazu.

Zazu:
Checking in with the morning report.

Mufasa:
Fire away.

Zazu:
Well, the buzz from the bees is that the leopards are in a bit of a spot...

Mufasa:
Oh, really?

[Simba pounces at a grasshopper and misses]

Zazu:
And the baboons are going ape over this. Of course, the giraffes are acting like they're above it all...

Mufasa:
[to Simba] What are you doing, son?

Simba:
[looks in his empty paws] Pouncing.

Mufasa:
Let an old pro show you how it's done.

Zazu:
...The tick birds are pecking on the elephants. I told the elephants to forget it, but they can't...

Mufasa:
Zazu, would you turn around?

Zazu:
Yes, sire. [continues immediately] The cheetahs are hard up, but I always say ...

Mufasa:
[whispers] Stay low to the ground.

Zazu:
Cheetahs never prosper.

Simba:
[whispers] OK. Stay low to the ground., right, yeah.

Zazu:
[Realizing something is amiss] What's going on?

Mufasa:
A pouncing lesson.

Zazu:
Oh very good, pouncing. [realizing] Pouncing?!? Oh no, sire, you can't be serious... [Mufasa motions for Zazu to turn back around] Oh... this is so humiliating.

Mufasa:
[still whispering] Try not to make a sound.

Zazu:
What are you telling him, Mufasa? [Looking around uneasily-- Simba and Mufasa seem to have disappeared.] Mufasa? Simba?

[Simba does a full pounce leaving Zazu stunned on the ground and Mufasa laughs]

Mufasa:
[to Simba] That's very good.
