[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
SIMBA: Everything the light touches is part of our kingdom.
The Pride Lands.
Ruling it is a big responsibility, Kiara.
And someday, when you're Queen...
KION: Heads up! Incoming!
-[GRUNTS] -Kion!
Oh! [CHUCKLES]
Sorry, Dad. Me and Bunga were playing Baobab Ball...
And Kion couldn't handle the pass!
What? A giraffe couldn't handle it.
-You kicked it over my head! -Kion!
And you couldn't handle it!
-Bunga... -Yeah? Try to handle this!
[BOTH GRUNTING]
[SIGHS]
Boys!
Whoa!
Kion, I need to talk to your sister.
She'll be tracking gazelles with her friends today.
[CHUCKLES] Because I'm training to be...
Queen of the Pride Lands. Yeah, yeah. I know all about it, Kiara.
[SCOFFS] Least I have my life figured out.
What are you gonna grow up to be, little brother?
Happy?
All right, you two, that's enough.
Kion, why don't you and Bunga go play somewhere else?
Yeah! I know the perfect place!
Hey, Kion!
[IN SINGSONG VOICE] You'll never get the baobab fruit, no.
-You'll never get the baobab fruit, no! -Ha! You got nowhere to go, Bunga!
Says you! Zuka Zama!
[LAUGHS]
Catch me if you can, Kion!
Game on, Bunga!
Later, Dad! Have fun tracking those gazelle, Kiara.
I got to get Bunga!
[SIGHS] I can't believe we're related.
Kion will grow up someday. I hope.

BUNGA: Got it!
Whoa!
Aww. It rolled into the Outlands.
Game over.
Says who? I'm not afraid of the Outlands.
Neither am I! It's just... My dad!
He says we shouldn't...
Oh! Puh-leeze!
Simba's a big ol' scaredy cat when it comes to the Outlands.
You know what my uncles always say!
Hakuna matata.
Whoa!
Huh, Bunga? [SCOFFS] You look a little stuck.
You kidding? It's just a tree branch.
Uh, Zuka Zama!
[GRUNTS]
Now where did that baobab fruit go?
[GROWLING]
Oh! Afraid there's no meat left for you, boys.
[WHINING]
Janja, Janja! A baobab fruit!
Let's eat it! I'm starvelated!
What do you take me for, a vegetarian?
I want something nice and meaty for lunch! Something...
Huh? Where'd it go...
[LAUGHING]
Oh, what, what? What's so funny?
[LAUGHING]
What are you laughing at? Tell me!
Stuff it, fur brains!
Look...
A honey badger.
[SLURPS]
Now that's my idea of a delightful lunch!
[GROWLING]
Chungu! Cheezi! Bring him to me!
[HYENAS LAUGHING]
Here we go!
Hevi kabisa.
Bunga! Heads up!
Relax, Kion. Remember? Hakuna...
-[SNARLING] -Matata.
Get out of there, Bunga!
Okay, hyena. You wanna see what this honey badger's made of?
I'll show you what I'm made of!
[ALL LAUGHING]
Hey! Let me go so I can show that other guy what I'm made of!
Hyenas, put Bunga down! Pick on somebody your own size!
Kion! You want the honey badger?
Come and get him!
Let him go!
You hyenas don't want any trouble with my dad.
Oh, like how you'd get into trouble if you came into the Outlands?
[LAUGHS]
Uh, Kion?
He's too afraid to come down here.
Yeah! 'Fraidy cat!
-'Fraidy cat! 'Fraidy cat! 'Fraidy cat! -'Fraidy cat! 'Fraidy cat! 'Fraidy cat!
All right, yeah. Fun is over. Janja needs his lunch.
Lunch? No!
Let him go!
[ROARS]
See you, hyena! Wouldn't wanna be you!
Hevi kabisa!
What was that?
Zuka Zama!
Kion, how'd you roar like that?
I don't know, Bunga.
Wish I did, though.
Well however you did it, it was un-bunga-lievable!
That was Kion's roar?
[LAUGHS] Yes, Nala, yes!
He is ready! It is time!
Eh, no, Rafiki.
He can't possibly be ready. He's still a cub.
Simba, Simba. You heard the Roar!
I heard it. It's just...
It's a big responsibility.
I need more time to prepare him.
I think you've just run out of time, Simba.
You need to tell him.
But, Nala...
Listen to Rafiki, Simba.
Kion is ready. It is time.
Time for what?
Dad? Rafiki? What's going on?
Son, we need to talk.
Oh, no. Dad, we already had that talk.
♪ Can you feel the love tonight... ♪
I know all about that mushy stuff!
[LAUGHS] Well... Ahem... It's not that, Kion.
No, no. Most definitely not that.
We have heard your roar! Yes, yes!
Yeah. It was, uh, kind of different today.
Different? Different you say?
[CHUCKLES]
It is more than different.
It is the Roar of the Elders!
When you use it, the great lions of the Pride Lands' past roar with you.
What? You mean that's what happened to my roar?
Yeah, lions in the sky! I saw that!
The Roar of the Elders is a great gift, Kion.
It will make you the fiercest animal in the Pride Lands.
-But... -But what?
No, no, Simba.
It is you who must tell Kion about the Lion Guard.
The Lion Guard? What's that?
This way, Kion.
Uh, okay.
Oh, come on, Rafiki. You already know what it is, don't you?
Come on, tell me.
Huh?
It's a bunch of vines?
Rafiki?
Whoa!
Look at that!
How did I not know this was here?
Dad, what is this place?
This is the Lion Guard Lair.
It's the secret meeting place for the members of the Lion Guard.
Ugh! Maybe they should think about fixing the place up.
[COUGHS]
Or at least do some dusting.
Hmmm, yes.
[CHUCKLES]
Ah, that's more like it.
Can you show that trick to my Uncle Timon and Uncle Pumbaa?
[CHUCKLES]
Dad, enough with all the secrecy stuff!
You gotta tell me. What is the Lion Guard?
The Lion Guard is the team that protects the Pride Lands
and defends the Circle of Life.
According to tradition, the Lion Guard is made of the Pride Lands'
fiercest, bravest, fastest, strongest, and keenest of sight.
So, what happened to them?
It looks like they haven't been in here since... Forever!
I'm afraid it's a story without a happy ending.
-Whoa! -Whoa!
SIMBA: When your grandfather, Mufasa, was about your age,
his younger brother, Scar, was the leader of the Lion Guard.
Scar also had the gift of the Roar.
The Roar made Scar feel powerful.
But that power went to Scar's head.
He began to think that he should be king, instead of his older brother, Mufasa.
So Scar ordered the Lion Guard to help him take down Mufasa.
When the Guard refused, Scar was furious.
And then, Scar used the Roar to destroy the Lion Guard.
What Scar didn't realize was that by using the Roar for evil,
he would lose the power of the Roar, completely.
-Hevi kabisa... -Yeah.
The Roar is a very powerful gift.
It can be used for great good.
But it can also lead to terrible evil.
Well, I'd never be like Scar. Ever!
I'm glad to hear that, son.
Because starting today, you are the leader of the new Lion Guard.
I'm the what?
You heard Simba. Ha-ha!
The leader of the new Lion Guard! It is you!
Yes! It is you!
[CHUCKLES]
-Dad? -It's true, Kion.
Wow, amazing!
It is.
And now, as leader of the Guard,
I need you to assemble the Pride Lands' bravest,
fastest, strongest, and keenest of sight.
Okay, Dad. Got it!
Don't worry, I'm gonna make you proud!
Yes, Bunga?
This is un-bunga-lievable!
You see, Simba?
And now Kion will choose the best lions in the Pride for the Guard.
I hope so, Rafiki.
I'm still not sure he's ready...
[BIRDS CAWING]
Wow! Me! Leader of the Lion Guard. Protectors of the Pride Lands!
It's kind of scary...
-Hey, Kion. Kion! -Huh?
-Bunga! -Ready to start assembling the Lion Guard?
Huh? Now? Yeah? Huh?
Yes! Augh! Just stop splashing me!
Splashing?
Oh. [CHUCKLES] Sorry, Kion.
Hakuna matata, Bunga. Now, come on!
Time to assemble the Lion Guard!
Lion Guard? Hmm...
Dad said the Lion Guard needs the Pride Lands' bravest,
strongest, fastest, and keenest of sight.
So I think I'll ask the bravest animal in the Pride Lands first.
Kion, wait!
Before you go asking whoever you think is the bravest,
think about this,
I might not be the biggest honey badger. But I know what's in my heart.
And I'm not afraid of anything, or anyone!
I know, Bunga. That's why...
I will help the Lion Guard fight hyenas, or jackals, or crocodiles, or vultures!
-Vultures? -Or rock slides. Or wild fires or floods!
I will stand with the Lion Guard! I'll never give up!
I'll-- I'll...
Why don't you stop talking so I can ask you to join the Lion Guard?
Say what...
Come on, Bunga! You're the bravest animal I know!
I want you to be the first to join the new Lion Guard.
Zuka Zama!
Zuka Zama, indeed.
I wonder if Janja knows about the Lion Guard.
You couldn't have made a better choice. We are gonna make a great team!
I can't wait to tell Uncle Timon and Uncle Pumbaa.
[PANICKED SCREAM IN DISTANCE]
Kion, do you hear that?
ZURI: [STRAINING] Little help?
Sounds like Kiara's friend, Zuri...
And she needs help.
Our help!
It's our first adventure!
Lion Guard to the rescue!
Lion Guard to the rescue?
Hey, Bunga, wait up!
Hold still, Zuri.
Timon and Pumbaa said they know how to help.
Where am I gonna go, Tiifu? I'm stuck...
[SIGHS] You wouldn't be stuck
if you didn't keep stopping to sharpen your claws on every other tree.
But, Kiara, if I don't keep them sharp, they don't stay shiny!
Don't worry, ladies.
Me and Pumbaa have everything under control.
Timon is right. We used to help Simba get his claws out of logs all the time.
And you're sure about this?
Sure, I'm sure.
If it weren't for us, your dad would still be stuck to a tree somewhere.
Ready, Pumbaa?
Ready!
Okay, on three.
One, two...
Stand back, Pride Landers!
Bunga of the Lion Guard is here!
-What? -Bunga!
[GASPS] Ow, my claw! Whoa...
[CRASH AND ZURI SCREAMING]
Creepy crawly bugs!
-[BUZZING] -Ew!
-Zuri, you hit the jackpot! -It's smorgasbord!
[MUFFLES MOANS]
Hang on, Zuri! I'll save you!
Okay, Bunga. You've done enough saving for one day.
Bunga, I... Whoa!
What's going on?
I broke a claw! It hurts!
There, there, Zuri. You're gonna be just fine.
Oh, hey, Kiara. How did the gazelle tracking go?
[SIGHS] We never got to the gazelles.
Zuri got her claws stuck in a tree.
[LAUGHS] And then she fell face first into a log full of bugs!
BOTH: Mmm, mmm, mmm!
Bugs are so gross!
Mmm...
And so delicious! Ooh, look.
-Another one. -[SCREAMS]
Get it, get it away!
[CONTINUES SCREAMING]
Ow, my paw!
[ZURI SOBBING]
Hey, everyone. Everyone, listen to this!
Simba just put Kion in charge of the new Lion Guard!
Lion Guard?
What's a Lion Guard?
Dad just told me about it.
The Lion Guard is the team that protects the Pride Lands
and defends the Circle of Life!
And I'm it's new leader!
I'm gonna be on the Lion Guard too! It's un-Bunga-lievable!
[CHUCKLES] You and Bunga? Protecting the Pride Lands?
Does Dad know about this?
Dad told me to assemble the Pride Lands' best.
And I'm the best. Just ask me!
Well, if you ask me, it sounds like it might be dangerous.
It's worse than that, Pumbaa. It sounds like work.
Yeah, it's both!
Eek, work!
Gee, Bunga. I don't know.
Uncle Pumbaa, Uncle Timon, please?
Work? Danger? Definitely not.
Have you forgotten our problem-free philosophy?
It means no worries--
I know it's not Hakuna matata, Uncle Timon.
It's-- It's Zuka Zama!
Zuka Zama?
Don't ask!
What's Zuka Zama?
I'll tell you all about Zuka Zama!
You had to ask!

Oh, Zuka palooka.
I still don't think Bunga should be signing up for some jungle patrol.
-Lion Guard! -Whatever you call it.
Timon, Pumbaa, please.
I really do need Bunga on the Lion Guard. He's the bravest animal I know.
Bravest animal you know?
He's brave, all right.
Brave bordering on stupid.
Thanks, Kiara!
Well, when you put it that way...
Congratulations, Bunga! We always knew you had it in you!
Oh, brother!
Kion's gonna wreck the Pride Lands before I even get to be Queen.
Oh, Bunga. I'm so proud, I could...
[BREAKS WIND]
Oops, sorry.
Zuri, let's get you back to Pride Rock.
We're out of here!
I better go assemble the rest of my team.
Wait, Kion! The Lion Guard needs to stick together!
Was it something I said?
