[NARRATOR READING]

[KION READING]

[BIRDS WARBLING]

[SNORTING]

C'mon, boys!

It's lunch time, and I'm starving!

I'm always starving!

[LAUGHING]

KION: Hyenas!
[SCARED YELPS]



I told you to stay out
of the Pride Lands!

Did ya now?
My stomach keeps forgettin'.

His stomach forgets.
[LAUGHS]

That's a good one!

- Go!
- Oh, no.

[LAUGHS] That cub's got
no sense of humor!

Lion Guard!
Calm the herd!

- I'll take care of these guys.
- You got it.

We're leaving?
What about lunch?

All of a sudden
I'm not so hungry.

But Janja!
You said you were starving!

JANJA: Just run, fur brain!

That's right!
Back to the Outlands!

Now!
[CREAKING]



[YELLS AND GRUNTS]

[COUGHING]

That's right.
Easy there.

You're all okay now.

Yeah! Kion's chased those
hyenas back into the Outlands!

And he should be back by now.

- Ono, check on Kion.
- Affirmative!

Hapana!

[GRUNTING]

ONO: Everyone, everyone!
Kion's in trouble!

Come on!

[GRUNTING]

[GASPS]
Kion!

- Hang on, Kion, we're coming!
- Little B, don't!

The current's too strong!

- Ono! Keep pace with Kion!
- Right!

[COUGHING]

Whoa!

[PANTING]
Thanks, Big B.

Hang in there, Kion.

Oh, no!
Kion, look out!

- Rocks! Straight ahead!
- Whoa!

[PANTING]

[COUGHING]

[PANTING]

[SIGHS]

Kion! Are you all right?

A little wet.
[COUGHS]

But I'm okay.

But Kion, look.
You're over here.

- In the Outlands.
- I can see that, Ono.

And it looks like I can
take that trail upriver.

Don't worry, Ono.
I'll be fine.

Besides, I don't have
much of a choice.

I definitely can't
cross the river here.

The water's way too rough.

Lion Guard! Meet me
at Flat Ridge Rock!

I can cross the river there!

- Huh?
- Flat Ridge Rock?

Yeah, yeah, yeah! I know
exactly where that is.

Follow me!

- Thanks, Bunga! Ono!
- Yes, Kion?

Better go with them.

Make sure Bunga really does
know where Flat Ridge Rock is.

Affirmative!
Guys, wait up!

C'mon! C'mon!

We don't want Kion waitin'
up at Flat Ridge Rock,

wondering where we are.

[EXCLAIMS]

- What's wrong, Little B?
- Uh, nothing.

Bunga? Are you sure you know
how to get to Flat Ridge Rock?

Pfft! Of course, I know.
It's this way!

- Huh? [GRUNTS]
- Ow.

Wait, no, no, no, no.
It's this way!

[HISSING]

Going somewhere, Bunga?

Nope! Gotta be this way.

Well, it's one of these ways.

Too bad Kion's
not here to lead us.

- Do you even know where we are?
- Sure! Uh...

We're lost!
[ALL SIGH]

Hmm.

[GRUNTS]

[SNIFFING]

JASIRI: Hello!

Surprise!
[GASPS]

[LAUGHS]

Didn't know I was up here.
Did ya?

No, I...

I knew you were
there the whole time.

- Hyena.
- Yep, I'm a hyena all right.

You lions are so clever!
[LAUGHS]

Especially you, Kion.

Leader of the Lion Guard.

- You know me?
- Just by reputation.

The mark on your shoulder's
a giveaway, though. [LAUGHS]

So, you're not in Janja's clan?

Janja?
Yeah, that's a good one.

What are you doing
in the Outlands?

Not exactly your territory.

I'm going to
Flat Ridge Rock,

so I can get back
to the Pride Lands.

If that's okay with you, hyena.

The name's Jasiri.
And if you are headed back

to the Pride Lands,
you're going the wrong way.

Uh-huh. And I should
trust a hyena because...

Because I want you
out of my territory.

Good. I want out of
your territory. [SCOFFS]

Then you're going
the wrong way!

Thanks for getting us
outta the woods, Ono.

No problem. But I don't know
which way to go from here.

I've never been
to Flat Ridge Rock.

- Neither have I.
- Me neither.

Well, it's probably
around here somewhere.

BESHTE: All I see are grass,
trees and zebras.

Ugh! I can't believe we
don't know where to go!

We're the Lion Guard!

[SIGHS] This never happens
when Kion's around!

Easy, Fuli. We just need to
ask somebody for directions.

Hello, Lion Guard.
I couldn't help but overhear.

- You need directions?
- Yeah, we do!

Do you know where
Flat Ridge Rock is?

Flat Ridge Rock?

Oh! Is that near Ukuni Woods?
Or Big Springs?

We don't know where it is.
That's why we're asking you!

I see. Well, that's too bad.

I'm not sure where it is.

- Now, where was I going?
- Uh, maybe back to your herd?

Oh yes, of course!
Thank you!

Zebras. [SIGHS]

They never know
where they're going.

Hey! We could ask
Mbeya the Rhino!

He knows the Pride Lands
like the back of his horn.

Great. Any idea where
we can find Mbeya?

This time of day, Mbeya usually
hangs out at the watering hole.

Yeah!
Watering hole, here we come.

[GRUNTS]
Ono, you lead this time.

Affirmative!
Follow me!

FULI: This way, Bunga.

I-I was taking a shortcut.

[GRUNTS]

Still following me?

You're still
ignoring my advice.

About going the wrong way?
[SCOFFS]

I'm pretty sure I'm heading
towards Flat Ridge Rock.

Maybe so, but you can't
get there on this trail.

Oh, yeah? Why's that?

- The trail ends. Here!
- What? Whoa...

[CACKLING]

Heyvi kabisa!

[GROWLS]

[SIGHS] How long
can it possibly take

to ask for directions
to Flat Ridge Rock?

- They've been talking forever!
- Beshte does like to talk.

Yes. But perhaps
I'd better go talk to him.

You get to be my age, you
never know what might happen!

[LAUGHS]

Sorry to interrupt.
But Beshte?

We have to meet Kion?
At Flat Ridge Rock?

Oh yeah!
Guess I better be going.

- See you later, Mbeya.
- Later, Beshte.

- So? What did he say?
- You won't believe it.

Remember that heatwave
we had yesterday?

Yeah, I remember.
It was hot.

- Now what did Mbeya say?
- He forgot to cover himself in mud!

[LAUGHS]

Why would Mbeya want to
cover himself in mud, Big B?

That's how rhinos avoid sunburn.
Common knowledge, really.

[SIGHS] I meant, what did
Mbeya say about the directions?

[CHUCKLES] Fuli, you don't need
directions to cover yourself in mud.

Just find a nice
mud puddle and roll in it.

Argh! Not directions
for mud bathing.

Directions for getting
to Flat Ridge Rock!

Oh, yeah!
The directions to Flat Ridge Rock!

I forgot to ask.
Be right back.

[ALL GRUNT]

Yeah. Kion would never
forget something like that.

[JASIRI LAUGHING]

Hold still, this won't hurt at all.

[GRUNTING]

Hey, what are you doing?

Getting you out
of this thorn bush.

If you'd just hold still!

What? Why would you help me?
You're a hyena.

You lions really do think
all hyenas are bad!

All the ones I've met are.

Like Janja, Cheezi,
and Chungu?

[CHUCKLES] Well, obviously,
I'm not like them.

For one thing, they're males.
Which means they're foolish.

- No offense.
- Not all males are foolish.

Says the male lion flat on
his back, stuck in a bush.

[LAUGHING]

Things would certainly go a lot
better if Kion were leading us.

Yeah. But you gotta
love all these flies!

Ugh. Yeah, gotta love 'em.
Beshte, are you positive

Mbeya said this is the
way to Flat Ridge Rock?

Yep! 'Course, he also said
he's never actually been there.

[GROANS]

Everyone! There's a ridge up ahead
with a flat rock on top of it!

It's gotta be Flat Ridge Rock!

Zuka Zama!
Kion, here we come!

This time, I'll lead the way.
Comin' through.

Fuli, slow down!

How can you lead us
when we can't keep up?

- Thanks... I guess.
- You guess?

Well, yeah! You could have told me

the trail ended before
I went over the hill!

Yeah. But then
I wouldn't have seen

the leader of the Lion Guard
rolling down a hill!

[LAUGHS]

Okay, you've had your laugh.
Now I'm lost.

Can you tell me how
to get to Flat Ridge Rock?

Follow that trail.
It'll take you to Flat Ridge Rock.

And back to
your beloved Pride Lands.

Thanks.
[GRUNTS]

- You're limping.
- I'm fine.

Just a little sore from the fall.
I can handle it.

Okay, tell ya what.
It's kinda my fault you're hurt.

So I'll stick with you until
you can see Flat Ridge Rock.

Okay. I mean, if you want to.

What I want?
[LAUGHS]

- I want you out of my territory!
- [GRUNTS] Yeah, well, me too.

[GRUNTING AND SIGHING]

- Huh?
- Fuli?

Hi, guys.
What kept you?

I even had time to clean up.

Uh, Fuli? Usually Kion
wouldn't get so far ahead

that the rest of us
would have trouble keeping up.

Oh. Sorry, guys.

Wait! This is Flat Ridge Rock?

- Well, this rock is pretty flat.
- And it's on a ridge.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah!

I know this place!
I've been here hundreds of times!

You know, there's a great
shortcut we could have used!

ALL: Bunga!

What?

[GULPS]

See that? That's
the Circle of Life for you.

Wait. You think I don't know
about the Circle of Life?

Well, you are a hyena.

Look. I know Janja's clan is greedy
and eats more than their share.

But most hyenas
respect the Circle of Life!

We're the clean-up crews.

Picking up after
all the sloppy eaters.

We hyenas eat what
you lions leave behind.

Oh. I guess I never really
thought about it like that.

[LAUGHS]

Of course not. You think hyenas
and lions are so different.

But we're not!

We're more similar
than you think, Kion.

Sisi ni sawa.

You're saying we're the same?
No, I don't think so.

[SNIFFING]

- What's wrong?
- We're in Janja's territory.

And, believe it or not, we
don't get along! [LAUGHS]

Don't worry. Flat Ridge
Rock is right over there.

- You're almost home.
- Asante, Jasiri.

- Thanks for your help.
- Sure. Bye, Kion!

Hey, Jasiri!
If you ever need my help...

Help? From a lion?
[LAUGHS]

That's a good one!

Okay.

[SNARLING]
Janja!

Well, well.
If it isn't Jasiri.

Thought I told you
to stay off our turf!

Just passing through.

So move. Or do I have
to move you myself?

[ALL LAUGHING]

Big talk, coming from
someone who's all alone!

Okay.
I'll take another path.

[HYENAS GROWLING]

So, you figured out
that only three of you

- didn't stand a chance against me.
- C'mon, boys.

Let's remind Jasiri
what happens to someone

who wanders into
our part of the Outlands!

JASIRI: These all the hyenas
you got, Janja?

Jasiri?

[SNARLING]

Me first!
[LAUGHS]

[GRUNTS]
[GROANING]

[LAUGHS]
Who's next?

[SNARLING]

[SCREAMS]

[GRUNTS]
Enough playing around.

[GROWLING]

[GRUNTS]

[GROANS]
Kion?

- What are you doing here?
- I'm here to help.

If you say so...

but I got 'em right
where I want 'em!

[BLOWS]
[YELPING]

[GRUNTING]

Yeah, I can tell.

[GROWLING]
[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

Kion! Behind you!

Nice move, Jasiri...
Oh!

Thanks. You're not
so bad yourself.

- For a lion. [SNARLING]
- Uh-oh.

Looks like we're cornered.

[LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY]

Got you now!

KION: Jasiri, get behind me!

- Now!
- What? Why?

Trust me.

Can't believe I'm trusting a lion.

Don't know why you're in the
Outlands helpin' a hyena, Kion.

But it's the last thing
you're gonna do. [LAUGHS]

Get 'em, boys!
Gotcha now!

Yeah!
[LAUGHS]

[WIND WHOOSHING]

[LOUD ROAR]

Zuka Zama!
Kion's in trouble!

[CONTINUES ROARING]

[YELPING AND GRUNTING]

Uh. I hate that roar.

[YELPS]

Come on, boys!

[YELPING]

[LAUGHS]
Look at 'em go!

That was the funniest
thing I've ever seen!

[LAUGHING]

Okay, that roar thing?

That is definitely something
we don't have in common.

I've seen you in action.
You don't need a roar.

You know, I never thought
a lion would help a hyena.

Well, not all lions are alike.

- ONO: He's over here!
- Kion! [GROWLING]

[GROWLING]

Back off, hyena!

[BOTH GROWLING]

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa!

Take it easy!
She's a friend!

- She is?
- I... I am?

- Definitely.
- [whispers] But she's a hyena.

I know. But not
all hyenas are like Janja.

Some of them are good.
She's one of them.

- Really?
- She got me through the Outlands.

And he saved me
from Janja and his clan.

Well, any friend of Kion
is a friend of ours.

You should have seen her
take on Cheezi and Chungu.

- She was fierce.
- Huh. I like her already.

Sure is nice having
Kion lead us again.

Even if he is walking behind us.

Well, I better get back
to my territory.

I'm sure your roar doesn't
scare off Janja forever.

[CHUCKLES] If only!

[LAUGHS]

- Bye, Kion. It's been fun.
- Bye, Jasiri.

Maybe I'll see you
again sometime?

Not if I see you first.
[LAUGHS]

Hey guys, wait for me!
