(NARRATOR READING)

(KION READING)

Poa! Nothing better than
the feel of squishy mud
under your feet.

Except maybe the feel
of no mud under your feet.

After last night's
big storm,

I'm glad the mud
is our only problem.

That's what he thinks!

Everything's going
exactly as planned.



You mean you planned
for the Lion Guard
to be here?

No! I planned to go after
those wildebeests.

With all this mud,
they'll never outrun us.

Wait. You planned
on the mud?

(GASPS) Did you
make it rain?

No, fur-brain! Look.

We just gotta wait
for the Lion Guard
to clear out...

And now it's lunchtime.
C'mon, fellas!

(CACKLES)

Uh-oh. (YELPS)

(SCREAMING)

(GRUNTS)

Well, look who it is.
The Lion Guard!

What are you guys doin'
in the Outlands?



Nice try, Janja.

We both know this is
the Pride Lands.

And you don't belong here.

Yeah, yeah...

(LAUGHING)

That was fun!

C'mon, fellas, let's go.

It's too muddy
around here, anyway.

But, Janja, I thought
you liked the mud!

Yeah! 'Cause it slows down
the wilde... The wilde...

Wildebeests?

Yeah! Them!

We was gonna have 'em
for lunch!

Fur-brains! Shh!

The mud might slow down
the wildebeests.

But I don't think
it's gonna slow you down.

(ROARING)

(GRUNTS)

(HYENAS YELLING)

Get off of me, fur-brains!

Another plan ruined!
And do you know why?

'Cause you
slipped on the mud?

And slided into
the Lion Guard?

No! It's because of you two!

BOTH: Us?

That's right!
Every time I come up
with a brilliant plan,

you two mess it up!

We do?

Uh... I thought we
messed it up together.

(LAUGHS) Yeah!
We're great at that!

(GROANS) You know what?
I can't take it anymore.

You're both fired!

Weren't you two
fur-brains listening?
I said you're fired!

We're on fire?

(SNIFFS)
Ahhh!

I don't even smell smoke!

You're not "on fire."
You are fired!

It means you're finished.
You're done. You're through.

I don't need ya!

(CHUCKLING) Of course,
you don't need us!

(LAUGHING) Yeah! Yo,
what's the new plan?

There ain't no new plan!
You're not in
the crew anymore!

Get out of the Outlands!

You two, I'm giving you
a promotion.

Okay.
Thanks.

And here's your first job...

Get rid of those two
fur-brains!

You got it, boss!

You heard Janja.

(BOTH GROWLING)

Get lost!

Uh, sure! No problem!

Yeah. We're lost most
of the time already!

(SNARLING)

Remind me again,
why are we slogging
through all this mud?

We gotta make sure
all the trails

in the Pride Lands are safe
after the big rainstorm.

(RUMBLING)
Uh-oh.

And that
includes this one!

Mudslide!

Everybody! Run!

Hapana!
Hyah!

Okay. So this trail
isn't safe.

But this is the main path
from Big Springs
to Mekundu Cliffs.

Everyone uses it!

So we'll need to clear it
and make it safe again.

Ono, Bunga.
Keep everyone off this
trail till we're done.

Affirmative!

You got it, Kion!

Fuli, Beshte.
You're with me.

We have to get all these
trees and boulders
off this trail.

Sure thing!

Well, if I have
to get muddy,

might as well do it
for a good cause!

That's the spirit, Fuli!

JANJA: All right,
you twos, listen up.

Now that you're my
seconds-in-command,

you gotta learn the rules.

Rule number one,
I am the smartest
hyena around!

Rule number three...

What about
rule number two?

What about it?
What is it?

(MUMBLING)

Forget the rules!

The main thing is,
I come up with the plans,
and you guys...

Actually, Janja,
we already have a plan.

What? Didn't I just tell you
I'm the one who...

It's an awesome plan!

How awesome?

Okay, this is a herd
of antelopes.

(LAUGHS) No, it's not!
It's a bone!

Shh!

First, we stampede them
in this direction.
Right.

And then the Lion Guard
comes in and runs off
after the antelopes.

Oh, I get it! And then
we come home hungry!

That sounds like
one of my plans!

No, see?

After they run off,
we find a herd of oryxes.

Wait, those are oryxes?

And we chase them
in a different direction!

Then we catch
the oryxes over here,

while the Lion Guard's
still busy with the
antelopes over there!

Uh-huh.

Uh, well, good plan.

Yeah! Finally.

Hyenas who got
smarts like me.

Those other fur-brains
never knew what
they were doing.

Just like some other
hyenas we know.

Right.
(LAUGHING)

Still not sure why
we're givin' up a nice,
juicy bone for a rock.

ONO: Excuse me!

Oh, goodness!

Sorry, didn't mean
to startle you.

You might not
want to go this way.

But I have to
get to Big Springs.

Oh, gotta go around!

Big mudslide up ahead.

It's a mess!

Oh, I see what you mean.

Thanks for the heads-up.

(LAUGHING)

"Heads-up." Good one.

You're a giraffe.

Your head couldn't
get more up!

(LAUGHING)

Um...
Don't mind him.

Ooh!

Wait till Beshte
hears that one.

(CANTERING)

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Slow down there.

Hello? I'm trying
to get through.

Step aside.

You don't understand.
There's a mudslide
up ahead and...

You don't understand.
You're in my way!

Well, we tried.

Maybe he'll get
through okay.

(SPLATS)
ZEBRA: Excuse me!

Or maybe not.

A little help here?

(BOTH PANTING)

Hey, are those two guys
still chasing us?

Nuh-uh.
(SIGHS)

Hey! I don't think we're
in the Outlands anymore.

Oh, yeah!

Ooh. We're in
the Pride Lands!

(GASPS)

That means we did what
Janja told us to do!

You think we should
go back and tell him?

(LAUGHING) Yeah, yeah!

(GASPS) No, wait.

He said we ain't
in his crew no more.

But he's still
our boss, right?

Uh, I don't think so.

Oh, who's gonna
tell us what to do?

Who's gonna
call us fur-brains?

Maybe we could do it!

I'm hungry, fur-brains!

Oh, yeah.

Me, too, fur-brain!

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(BOTH SIGH)

It just ain't the same.

¶ Why

¶ Why did he
tell us to go?

¶ The only family
we know

¶ And why send
both of us here?

(SOBBING)
Cheezi, why, why?

¶ Now what?
What do we do?

¶ And who... ¶

Oh, look, antelope!

(LAUGHS) That's what
Janja would have us do.

Hunt antelope!

(LAUGHS)

And you know
what he'd say?

Uh, "Get those
antelopes, fur-brain."

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Okay, I'll go this way.

Yeah, and you'll go that way.

(BOTH GROAN)

(GRUNTING)

I thought you was
goin' that way!

And I thought you was
goin' this way!

And which way
did they go?

I don't think
I like the Pride Lands.

Me neither.

Nothin' stands still
and lets you eat it.

It's not fair!

Well...

We could eat leftovers!

Oh, yeah!

They don't move.

(MUNCHING)

You know what?

I think I like the
Pride Lands after all!

(LAUGHS)

Yeah! Me, too!

(CONTINUE MUNCHING)

(RUMBLING)

(BOTH SCREAMING)

Twende Kiboko!

Phew! There we go.

Last one.

Great job, Beshte.

Looks like the trail's
safe to use again.

At least till
the next big rain.

Does that mean
we can take a break?

Little B?
What happened to you?

Would you believe a zebra?

I'd believe it.

Hey, Big B!
Wait till you hear
what the giraffe said

when we told her
about the mudslide!

What's that, Little B?

She said, "Thanks for
sticking your neck out!"

(LAUGHS)

No, wait. That's not right.

She said...
ONO: Heads up!

Was that it?

No, I mean, heads up!

I just spotted something!

What'd you see, Ono?

Two animals in trouble.

Let's go!

Till the Pride Lands end...

ALL: Lion Guard defend!

Hurry! They're headed
for the canyon's edge!

Beshte, block their path.

You got it, Kion!

Twende Kiboko!

Hold steady, Beshte!

Here they come!

(GRUNTING)

Bunga, you help
the smaller one.

Fuli, we'll grab
the big one.

(SLOSHING)

I gotcha.

(GRUNTING)

Whoa! You're
pretty heavy for a...

Whatever you are.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(BOTH SPITTING)

That was close.
Are you two all right?

What? You two?

Is it?
I... Guess so.

If you're here,
then Janja's here, too. Ono?

On it.

Janja's here?
(GASPS) Do you see him?

Ooh, ooh!
Maybe he's come back.

(LAUGHS) Yeah!
Maybe he's gonna let us
back into the Outlands!

Wait, what?

Janja kicked us
outta the Outlands.

We ain't on
his crew no more.

You really expect us
to believe that?

He said we always
messed things up!

Okay, that I believe.

Now he's got
two new guys.

Yeah. Nne and Tano.

And they're mean
and ugly!

No sign of Janja.

(BOTH GROAN)

So what are we gonna do
with these two?

Well, they can't stay here.

You two have to go back
to the Outlands.

But we can't go back!

If we do,
Janja's new crew
will just kick us out...

BOTH: Again.

You know, Kion.
I don't see these two guys
causing much trouble.

Yeah. They're not
smart enough.

(LAUGHS) Hey, thanks!

(LAUGHS) Yeah,
you got that right!

See what I mean?

But what if they chase
after the herds
like Janja always does?

Why would we do that?

When there's leftovers
lying all over the place?

(BOTH MUNCHING)

Maybe we should
let them stay.

After all,
hyenas are scavengers.

By cleaning up
after everyone,

they'd actually
be helping

the Circle of Life
in the Pride Lands.

Hmm. Maybe you're right, Ono.

And I guess letting them stay
would be the nice thing to do.

Feels weird, though.

Okay. As long as you two
don't cause any trouble,

you can stay
in the Pride Lands.

Gee, thanks!

Don't make us regret it.

Let's get back
to our patrol.

Ono, check in on them
every once in a while.

I still think this might be
one of Janja's plans.

Affirmative.

You hear what they
said about us?

(LAUGHS) Yeah.
We're helping with
the Circle of Life.

Feels kinda good,
don't it?

Uh, what's
the Circle of Life again?

I do not know.

But if it means
lots of leftovers,
I like it!

What's that?

(GASPS) Hapana!

Problem, Ono?
Is it those two hyenas?

No, a herd of antelope
is stampeding
in the rocky plains!

Lead the way, Ono!

Till the Pride Lands end...

ALL: Lion Guard defend!

(ANTELOPES GRUNTING)

(LAUGHS) That's it, boys.

We've almost got 'em.

(PANTING)

And I can almost
taste them.

(GRUNTS)

Hey! You're letting
them get away!

Don't you remember
the plan?

We do. Do you?

'Course I do!
Uh... I think.

(SIGHS)

Okay, listen.

The plan is to... Uh-oh!

Guys! What are you...
(YELPS)

Ono, did you see
what made them run?

I didn't.

(SNIFFING) Doesn't matter.
I think I know.

Come on! We gotta
catch that herd
and calm 'em down!

Oh, great! The Lion Guard
spoiled the plan. Again!

No. The plan's
working perfectly.

It is? What kinda plan
lets the Lion Guard win?

Janja, they're not winning.

They're doing exactly
what we want them to do.

Did you even listen
when we explained
the plan?

Sure I did.
It's all about rocks
and leaves and... Stuff.

We scared off
the antelopes

so the Lion Guard
will chase after them.

While they're busy,

we're gonna go after
something else.

In the opposite direction.

So... The antelopes
aren't dinner?

No!

Oh, but I like antelope.

That's dinner.

Ooh! Oryxes!
They're good, too!

Come on, fur-brain!

What'd you call me?

Oh, sorry... Boss.

That's better. I...
(BOTH LAUGHING)

Hey! Wait for me!
I'm your leader,
remember?

Slow it down.
No need to run.

The Lion Guard's here to help.

Yeah, but help them
with what?

Good question, Little B.

I never did see
anyone chasing them.

Me neither.

You said earlier
you've got an idea
what started the stampede.

Yeah. It's all our fault.

What?
How could it be our fault?

I'd never start
a stampede.

We didn't start
the stampede.

But we let Cheezi and Chungu
stay in the Pride Lands.

You think
they had something
to do with it?

Either them or Janja.

I caught the scent
of hyenas earlier.

Ono, find Cheezi and Chungu
and lead us to 'em.

On it!

(BOTH SNORING)

(RUMBLING)

You two fur-brains!

Janja!
Is it really you?

Did you come
looking for us?

Do you want us back?

You kidding?
I got two new hyenas
that do everything I say.

They really respect me.

TANO: Janja!

You coming?
Just let him stay behind.

(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

See what I mean?

Fellas! Wait up!

Did... Did that
really just happen?

Maybe it was
just a dream.

Yeah, yeah.

I'm gonna dream
about Janja some more.

Me, too.

There's a dead-end
canyon up ahead!

We can trap them there

before the Lion Guard
gets back

from their wild goose chase.

JANJA: Wild goose?

I thought they were
chasing antelopes.

I thought
we dumped you.

You can't dump me.
I'm the boss.

Oh, yeah?
Watch us.

(GROANS)

NNE: So long...

Fur-brain!

(LAUGHING)

(BOTH CONTINUE SNORING)

You still think they started
the antelope stampede?

Let's ask 'em.

Hey!
(BOTH GASP)

Okay, you two.

Why'd you start
that stampede?

Stampede?

It wasn't us!

We was busy
dreamin' about Janja!

Yeah, yeah!

Maybe it was
Dream Janja
that did it!

"Dream Janja"?

JANJA: Nne! Tano!
Come back here!

That sounds like
the real Janja to me.

I knew it!
Come on!

Janja's really here?

It's a dream come true!

Those double-crossing
no-goods!

Oh, great.

Just when I thought
it couldn't get any worse.

Why'd you scare off
the antelopes, Janja?

What's your plan?

Bad enough I get
pushed off a cliff.

I ain't gonna take
the blame, too.

It was their idea!
The new guys!

Something about getting
you to chase the antelopes
while we chase the oryxes!

Sounds like a
pretty good plan.

Ono!

ONO: (GASPS) Hapana!
I see them!

They're chasing the oryxes
into a dead-end canyon!

Lion Guard!

Let's go!

JANJA: Hey, hey, wait,
where are you going?

You're just gonna
leave me here?

Don't worry, Janja!

We won't leave you.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(GRUNTING)

(SIGHS) How is this
supposed to save me?

Save you? (LAUGHS)

We weren't trying
to save you.

Yeah!

We just wanna
keep you company.

(BOTH SIGH)

Oh! (GRUMBLES)

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Oh, whatcha
staring at, oryxes?

NNE: Never seen
smart hyenas before?

They still haven't!

(GRUNTING)

(SCREAMING)

Don't tell me.

The Lion Guard.

And you must be
Janja's new crew.

We're our own crew.

So now what?

You gonna
scare us off
with the Roar?

You are pretty smart.

(ROARING)

That's the first time
I was ever happy
to hear that sound.

(ALL SCREAMING)

(THUDS)

So, what about Janja?

Can't we just leave
him on the ledge?

I wish.

But we gotta get him
off the ledge

and out of the Pride Lands.

BESHTE: Hmm.

Might not be easy.

Uh, are we sure
this is the right cliff?

Janja? Cheezi? Chungu?

You okay?

Uh, yeah!
I think so.

KION: Okay, then.

It's time for you
to go home.

Fine with me.

I've had enough of
this place for one day.

Hey, you coming?

Sure, Janja!

We thought
you'd never ask!

Oh! (SNARLS)

Fur-brains.

(LAUGHS)

That's right, Janja.

That's what we are.

(CHUCKLES)
Yeah. Thanks.

It means a lot
coming from you.

(GROWLING)

I love a happy ending.
