No.
Oh, oh.
Who are you?
I am a fierce dragon, the most powerful creature on Earth.
I can turn you into ice with a single breath.
Well, I am a panda bear.
I am black and white and fluffy.
But I will defend myself with my mighty claw.
Oh, you are no match for me.
Run, Panda Bear, as fast as your legs will carry you.
Good idea.
Freeze!
My tums gone numb.
You nearly breathed ice long.
That was really scary.
Honestly?
You're growing up so fast, you'll soon be able to make rain and snow.
And fly, just like your dad.
Then you'll be able to travel the world.
And you could come with me, Pang.
I don't think so.
Pandas aren't meant to go anywhere.
We're meant to sit on our bottoms all day, eating bamboo.
You don't have to do what you're meant to do.
You can go wherever you want to go.
How about to my parents for lunch?
I've got something else on the menu.
Come on!
Get your bamboo!
However you want it!
For Christmas!
Wow, he's amazing, isn't he?
Showing off a bit, if you ask me.
The other dragons, they knock off a rain cloud, a bit of snow, maybe some sleet.
Why all the hoopla?
Tough day.
Tell me about it.
I had to chop some bamboo earlier, all on my own.
Sorry.
No problem.
We'll just have to redecorate the living room, that's all.
Thanks for watering our bamboo, Mr.
Kang.
Always happy to help.
Soon I must fly east to take rain to the plains and paddy fields.
Perhaps Geelong could stay with you while I'm away.
It would be our privilege, sir.
Wouldn't it, dear?
Would it?
Absolutely!
Bang will be delighted.
Where are they, by the way?
Run this idea past me again.
We are going to catapult into the air and fly off around the world.
One small problem?
You can't fly.
There's nothing to it.
My dad told me it's just a state of mind.
Easy for him to say.
He's not sitting on your back.
They're flying.
They're flailing.
They're falling.
That's too long.
How's your state of mind?
I think I'm losing it.
That was really scary.
It totally was.
Can we do it again?
What happened this time?
Impromptu flying lessons while she can't fly.
Pang, how could she let this happen?
All hail the prince!
Stop it!
You're tickling!
Put me down!
Sorry, I wasn't laughing at you.
He was just right under my armpits.
Getting a bit big for the old lifting thing, hey, uncle.
Maybe next time, just a polite round of applause.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for coming over for my birthday.
Wow, 13, the big one.
If you've got any presents, just leave them on the rock.
Giraffes, thanks for the necktie.
I'm sure I'll grow into it.
Dung beetles, don't feel like you've got to get me anything this year.
I've been rolling this poo for miles.
And that's it.
Oh, antelopes, see you at the feast.
Don't worry, ears all vegan.
Ciao!
That went well, didn't it?
Right, back to the palace, everyone.
They're turning slowly.
I'm worried too.
You're planning a surprise party for me, aren't you, Uncle?
No, there is no surprise party, Your Majesty.
Only someone who's planning a surprise party would say there is no surprise party.
The pride is concerned that the Hychenas are returning to the forest.
So what?
It's not like we're struggling for space.
The Hychenas are our sworn enemy, Your Highness.
They are?
Right up.
Yes, of course they are!
Naughty hyenas, ugh!
Hate them, funny squashed up faces, too many teeth.
I suggest we drive them out before it's too late.
Why?
Because they might gatecrash my surprise party?
There is no surprise party!
Got it!
Won't mention it.
Again.
But you will be getting a very special present, Your Majesty.
Really, Uncle?
We just need to secure it first.
Hmm.
How far are we from the coast?
We are hours away.
You've got the binoculars the wrong way around.
We're there.
Get the bag.
We've got a dragon to catch.
A dragon?
I had amazing creatures that can carry six times their body weight.
Tiny little fellas about that big.
That's an ant.
Dragons are huge, majestic beasts that can fly.
So can some ants.
They can freeze you with their breath.
I know an ant that can do that.
Just shut up and get the bag.
It's time for me to go.
I'm sorry, Geelong.
Since when were you sorry about dumping me?
Just go and do your thing.
Maybe next year you can come with me.
But for now, stay with your friend, Pang.
And be safe.
Never mind, Elon.
He'll be back soon.
I just wish he'd stop treating me like a child.
Then I can make you smile.
Race you to the forest!
What's keeping you?
Be back in time for tea, you two.
And no flying.
This way to the cave.
I'm taking a shortcut.
Sorry.
Whoa!
Watch it, tiny claw.
Hey!
Don't call me that.
What are you gonna do about it without your big dragon friend?
Um, I hadn't thought that far ahead.
Why do you hang around with a dragon anyway?
Pandas are meant to stick to their own.
Because she's my best friend.
And we're going to fly around the world someday.
Ha!
You're going nowhere.
Geelong will fly away soon, and you'll be left all on your...
Any problem here, Vong?
No problem.
just chilling with my bro.
Give my regards to your dad.
Let's play hide and seek.
Hide and seek is for little kids.
Oh, blind man's buff?
All right, I'll blindfold you.
There you go.
Come and get me.
I can see the dragon.
That's not a dragon.
That's a dragon.
Oh!
Mm-hmm.
I have a feeling you're just-- ow!
Aha!
I can hear you.
I can even smell you.
And now I can feel your tiny ears.
Your hairy back?
Your lumpy ****?
Hang on a minute.
Huh?
Hang, run for it!
Let's hide from them in the cave.
Too late for that.
Ooh, that was close.
Who are you?
I am a fearsome crocodile.
She is a massive baboon.
Baboon.
What she said.
What do you want with us?
We don't want you.
We want your friend.
What are you going to do with you?
We're not telling you.
We're taking her to Lion Rock.
But you'll never know why.
As a gift for the lion prince.
You know too much.
Gina!
Mom!
Dad!
Help!
Seventeen cross to be in need of assistance.
Help!
Very good.
What to do?
Get mom and dad.
Get Jilo.
Get back in the cave.
No, that's a stupid idea.
Quick, make a decision.
Wrong decision.
Stop breaking link.
I can't help it.
It's how I run.
oh phew that was lucky
I'll take it from here!
You, untie the boat!
Don't worry!
I'll save you, Jilong!
No, you won't!
Stop!
I'm warning you!
Gotcha!
Help!
Help me!
Peg!
She's missing you already!
Huh?
Africa?
Hello?
Can you help?
It's Geelong.
You're playing by the caves.
This crocodile is some kind of monkey.
Put her in the sack.
I fall off the cliff, wrestled by the doggie.
She's been kidnapped.
I didn't understand a word of that.
They're taking my best friend to Africa.
We've got to rescue her.
Sorry, kid.
I don't do passengers.
Now get off my boot.
Please.
Who said I was going to Africa anyway?
Huh?
Bang!
Yilong!
You definitely saw them heading towards the cave.
Yeah, we had a joke together, the three of us, old mates.
They could be anywhere.
What are you doing on my boat?
Going to Africa?
I said I don't do passengers.
But if you want to stay, you'll have to sue the cells, build the bilge, stop the
deck, break up the barnacles, reel in the ropes.
Boil my path, tighten up my tennis head.
And call me Captain.
Aye, Captain.
That should keep you busy for the next hour.
There you go.
Safe and sound.
Take me home, you big ape.
What do you think?
Shall we take her back?
Yeah, all right.
She makes a convincing case.
No chance.
You'll never see your family or your friends or your home again.
I did it!
What happened?
She froze my backside.
Feel that.
Do I have to?
If she can freeze things with her breath, you know what this means?
Ice cream!
No, you do not!
From now on, she'll keep her mouth shut.
And from now on, you'll have her bright breath, but I hope you'll-- You're
welcome to the scene, Captain!
Hop in!
wet I'll make another there's a storm brewing big one we need to lower the
main sail when I say we I mean you aye aye captain the alien what
Now get down as quick as you can!
Strap yourself in, boy!
oh where are you it's no use kid now get yourself in the life mode
What are you doing?
You got me this far, Captain, and I am not leaving you behind.
To the lifeboat.
Look out.
I'm coming for you.
Gotcha.
Oh, he's gone again.
There you are, sneaking up on me.
Oh, there's a huge one behind you.
Just playing with my bestie, Mr.
Shadow.
We're inseparable.
Oh, and I've been working on my new role.
Stand up.
You're going to like this, uncle.
Getting dead, don't you think?
Maybe a bit more in the back of the throat.
Like that.
Yep, that's the kind of thing...
A little bit of phlegm in my eye, but, you know...
Anyway, why did you want to see me?
We have word your birthday present is soon to arrive, Your Majesty.
No way!
What is it?
Did you get me a pet, Uncle?
I did, Your Majesty.
My very own little friend!
Is it a hamster?
No, Your Majesty, it's not a hamster.
Oh, it's just that's what I had on the list.
A fluffy tummy and puffy cheeks and pointy little teeth.
The pets we have got for you will protect us all from the hygienas.
Is it a guinea pig?
It's the rarest creature on Earth, all the way from the other side of the world.
No, don't tell me.
Don't want to spoil the surprise.
Land ahoy!
We'll be docking soon.
Make sure our guest is ready to disembark.
We don't have a cast, just a kidnapped dragon.
Just look after the rope and leave the rest to me.
Whoa, I get to hold the rope.
Welcome to Africa.
You can't escape, so you might as well enjoy the rest of the journey.
All going to plan, boss?
Help me, you idiot!
What about the road?
Have a drink, son.
You deserve it.
We survived.
All thanks to you.
You're not such a bad kid, you know.
You work hard, you're braver than you look, but the world's a dangerous place.
Sorry, Captain.
You sure you're ready for this journey?
All I know is I've got to do it.
For Geelong.
She's lucky to have a pal like you.
This place is strange.
The fish fly and the tortoise swim.
Welcome to the other side of the world, kid.
It's beautiful.
How much further have we got to go?
Oh, I'd say at least 100, maybe 200.
meters.
Is that Africa?
It is.
Now grab an oar and let's get you there.
You'll save my life, kid.
I'll always be in your debt.
You got me to Africa, sir.
You owe me nothing.
Good luck finding your friend.
This might help.
My lucky charm, pure gold, might get you out of a tricky spot.
Wow.
Thank you, Captain.
And remember the old saying, the journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.
Farewell, kid.
Wow, Africa is wonderful.
That's one weird-looking animal.
You looked in the mirror lately?
He is definitely not from around here.
Nope, and he won't be for much longer.
Look, jackals!
Oh, they've laid out a welcoming committee.
They're going to eat you, you dummy.
Really?
Run!
Right.
All sick.
Guess what I got, fellas?
A stick!
That's an actual stick!
That's 100% organic!
Now, *****!
That's it!
It will be over there, yeah, with all the other sticks.
Boy, are they stupid.
Now, if you want to live, follow me.
Huh?
Hang on, we've been conned!
Why do we always do that?
What's so exciting about the stick anyway?
Personally, I'm not that interested in sticks.
They're not even sticky.
And for the record, what was that animal we just suggested?
I don't know.
Lucky we didn't catch it.
Might have been poisonous.
My mother used to say, You should always know what you're putting in your mouth.
What?
Not a stick?
What stick?
That stick!
She found a stick!
You saved my life.
Thank you.
No problem.
Africa is a wonderful place, but we've got a lot of guys who like eating other guys.
I'll bear that in mind.
So what's with the black eyes?
Got in a fight with a water buffalo?
I'm a panda bear.
The name's Peng.
Is that why they hit you?
No one hit me.
I've come from Asia to find my best friend.
Look no further.
You just found him.
Jojo, at your service.
How much for the medallion?
It was a gift.
It's not for sale.
Everything's for sale.
What's this?
That's where they took my friend.
That ain't easy.
Need someone to show you the way?
Do you know anyone?
Are all pandas this slow?
You can take me?
Of course I can.
But how do I know I can trust you?
Everyone knows you can trust Jojo.
I'm one of the most trustworthy small monkeys in this spot.
Mind you, that's not saying much.
So what will it cost to get me to Lion Rock?
Exactly one...
gold medallion.
What were the chances?
You sure this is the right way?
Trust your old friend Jojo.
We only just met.
Exactly, and it already feels like a lifetime.
True this law...
Over the wall...
Oops.
Knock on the door.
Voila!
This doesn't look like the lion rock on the map.
Eh, we had to downsize.
I can't see a single lion.
He's lying.
Whoa!
Meet Abu, a kudu with an attitude problem.
Huh?
And our boss, Darius.
Excuse me, sir.
I've been brought here under false pretenses, and I need you to--
He doesn't appear to have a head.
He has.
Wake up, boss.
What do we got here, Jojo?
It's a panda bear, all the way from Asia.
Ooh, I like this.
I like this a lot.
Thanks.
Anyway, as I was explaining, I'm on my way south to locate my-- You ain't going nowhere.
From now on, you work for me, a dancing panda bear.
I will make a fortune.
Oh, I think you overestimate my dancing skills.
Look, if I can teach a monkey to strum and a quarrel to sing, then I can teach
a panda bear to dance.
Just watch.
Samba.
Disco!
TikTok Washer!
Don't be shy!
Join in!
Hey, let's go!
Maybe I'll get the hang of it.
Eventually.
Don't even think about escaping.
Unless it is into the music.
Well, there you go.
You got your own corner of the room.
Lucky guy.
I trusted you, Jojo.
I'm sorry, my friend, but everybody's got to make a living.
There's an old Chinese saying.
A friend doesn't steal your medallion, kidnap you, make you dance, they'll lock
you up in the corner of a room.
Wow, that gut's deep.
But don't worry, we only wear this at night.
During the day, we can go wherever we want, as long as we're followed by that guy.
Look, I was trapped here myself years ago, but I got used to it.
Why?
'Cause I had nowhere else to go.
Well, I have.
I'm getting out of here to save my friend.
Good luck with that.
See you in the morning, buddy.
Hey, psst, take me with you.
I'm sorry I got you into this, but I had no choice.
I trusted you.
Why should I trust you again?
'Cause I'm a nice guy, and I'm fun to have around.
And I have your map.
Set me free, and I'll take you to the south.
I promise.
All right, but no monkey business.
Oh, thank you for this.
is great.
I mean it.
Shut up, or you're staying here.
Yes, we'll do mount zip.
Shh.
Free at last.
No.
Huh?
Wait, my life savings.
It ain't much, but it's all I got.
Let's get out of here.
According to this map, we need to cross the desert, which will be nice for you
and that thick fur goat.
Which way is it?
Well, it's either that way, that way, or that way.
But I'm pretty sure it's not that way.
You don't have any idea where we're going, do you?
Let's ask a cabby.
Hey, my friend, can you get us across the desert?
I don't normally go south.
And what if I gave you three shillings?
Make it six.
Four.
Seven.
Five.
It's six.
Done.
You drive a hard bargain.
May I recommend an upgrade to our deluxe package?
Only two shillings.
Then what's the deluxe package?
Travel cushion.
We'll stick with economy.
Okay, climb aboard, my friend.
Is this right?
Style it out.
Let's go!
You want water for the journey?
It's free.
Put us down for six bottles.
Water's free.
Bottles are one shilling each.
You surprise me.
Good news, Saya.
Huh?
Your birthday present has finally arrived.
Really?
This is so exciting.
Cancel the rest of the day's royal stuff.
I'm getting a pet.
Your Highness.
Here it is, all the way from Asia.
It's a Christmas and birthday rounded to one.
That's it?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Not very fluffy, is it?
What happened to the hamster?
This is a dragon, Your Majesty.
One of the rarest creatures on Earth.
I'm not saying you didn't go to a lot of effort, but what does it do?
It can breathe ice, Your Majesty.
I can testify to that.
Does it go round and round in a wheel?
Let the hamster thing go, your highness.
This creature will bring you great power.
All right, uncle, if you say so.
Can we keep it outside for now?
I thought the desert was meant to be hot.
Lucky I've got that thick fur goat.
For one more in there?
If you promise not to snore.
I promise.
Bang, I've never met anyone like you before.
You've made me reevaluate life.
'Cause up to now, I've been a monkey on the make.
But it feels good.
Caring, sharing.
I'm going to be different from now on.
I'm going to be nicer, kinder.
You're great.
I finally open up without my feelings, and nobody's awake to hear them.
I am, unfortunately.
Hmm?
Don't be alarmed, but I think we're being watched by a meerkat.
Hello there.
You all alone?
Ah, nice, you've got a friend with you.
A family.
Some neighbors.
The whole community.
Uh, driver, can you pick up the pace a little?
Slow it!
See you suckers!
Watch out!
I'm just a gabi.
I didn't sign up for this.
Keep the tip.
Thanks, you weren't getting one anyway.
Do you mind if I just...
Do I win a prize at the end of this?
Huh?
Ah!
That is...
Uh-oh, that does not look good.
Good afternoon, unknown travelers.
What do you want?
Got any water?
We're patched.
Are you kidding?
We're down to our last six bottles.
They really need our help.
Oh, go on, now.
All right, guys, form a line.
One at a time, and one sip each.
Here you go.
Thanks, gents.
Next, please.
Slowly.
And the last one.
You again?
Please?
Forget it.
You guys almost cleaned us out.
All right.
Back in your positions, team.
We're moving on.
Hey.
Who knew the meerkats and the rhinos had a thing going?
Well, guess we're walking from now on.
As the old saying goes, the journey of 1,000 miles begins with a single step.
I prefer a journey across the desert always begins with a load of water.
Your Majesty, this will be a chance to observe the power of your new prize pet.
Oh, goody.
Bring out the chicken.
The dragon will now freeze the chicken.
Why would you freeze a chicken?
Unless you wanted to eat it later at a more convenient time.
It's just a trial, understand?
Dragon, do as I command.
Uh, uncle?
If the dragon's not working properly, can we just send her back under warranty?
Prove your worth, or you will face a worse fate than the chicken.
See, I knew she can freeze things.
And if she can freeze this tree, she can also freeze a whole forest.
I can't carry on much longer.
Don't give up, Jojo.
You gotta believe in yourself.
But I don't believe in myself, and giving up is my thing.
It's all I've ever been any good at.
Go ahead, Pang.
You'll be better off without me.
I'm not leaving you.
There's always hope just over the hill.
Come on.
Can I give up now?
Peng, where are you?
Coco.
Help me, my friend.
Please.
You'll never make it, tiny claw.
It's all right if I give up, but it's not all right if you give up.
Peng, are you done with this?
No, I am not done with this.
Now get out of here.
All right, Pang.
Now shift your big round furry ****.
There's always hope just over the hill.
I hope.
Huh?
He was right.
We made it!
Is this heaven?
No, but it sure does feel like it.
We've got everything we need.
Pineapple, banana, guava, mango, passion fruit, and even...
Bamboo?
Whoa!
You just crushed the bamboo.
Oops.
Last one in the lake is a warthog!
No offense, come on!
I wasn't planning on going to the lake anyway.
Wow.
I could get used to this.
It's beautiful.
Welcome to Africa, my friend.
Oh, great.
You just had to ruin the moment.
Well, that wasn't me.
Well, it definitely wasn't me.
Run for your life!
Wow, and I thought Jojo had a big mouth.
Get out of there, Peng!
This could turn into one of those panda eaten by hippo memes!
You've got a problem?
Let me take a look.
Whoa!
You've got lots of space in here!
Please!
I was just getting the light kill!
Whoops!
I went a bit far!
The good news is, your colon is fine.
Seriously?
You tried to reason with someone.
Sorry, Val, you're on your own.
There you go.
You had a frog in your throat.
Watch yourself next time, little fella.
That's much better.
Thank you so much.
No problem, madam.
Swill and spit.
She was a pleasant lady, wasn't she, Jojo?
Hmm?
Jojo?
You went that way.
Jojo?
Where are you?
Jojo?
Sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you could help me.
So I'm looking for a small, talkative, slightly annoying monkey.
You mean this small, talkative, slightly annoying monkey?
Remember us?
Run for it, Bang!
And I resent being calm, annoying!
Did you know ostriches are the fastest animals on two legs?
You do now!
Hi, mind if I join you?
Must get a bit lonely in there.
No friends or close family.
I know how that feels.
That's why I wanted a pet, a small furry one, but you can't have everything.
I know, I could teach you some tricks, like, paw, paw?
How about, roll over?
Play dead?
My goldfish was great at that!
After a couple of months, it turned out he was actually...
I've got it!
Beg!
Go on, beg!
Please?
I'm begging you!
You want me to undo the rope?
Promise you won't turn me into ice?
Ah, thank you.
You can talk?
Of course I can talk.
Whoa!
Now that's pretty cool.
A talking pet.
I've been called worse.
Can you play fetch?
Well, let me out of this cage and I'll show you.
Really?
This is great!
Don't tell Uncle I did this.
He'll go ballistic.
Now, when I count to three, you taste the rock.
One...
Whoa, fast!
I haven't actually thrown the rock yet.
Oh, come back!
Oh, please come back!
Are you sure the prince really wants the spoil of time for his next birthday?
Well, I'm definitely not getting him a bike.
Oops!
I just make another ball of dung.
The hyenas are in the forest.
We approach from this direction, along with the dragon.
We don't need to worry about the dragon, boss.
Why not?
'Cause she's already gone.
Ah!
Catch her, you fools!
You have to fly, Jilong.
You can do this.
Flying is just a state of mind.
Just dig deep and believe in yourself.
But don't be smug.
Nobody likes smug.
Be open.
And when the time is right, which may or may not be now, because let's face it,
that thing's pretty steep.
And if you mess up, it's curtains like a big mess.
So realistically, your chances are 150-50, I miss.
I can't do it.
You're going back to your hamster cage.
Who let her out?
Where are you taking us?
Home.
Do you think I'll let a prize asset like you escaped, do you?
We already have the posters printed.
I'm not classically trained.
As for you, Jojo, you betrayed us.
I was trying to slow him down for you, boss.
Think I believe that, traitor?
Hope you like hard work, 'cause you both got plenty coming.
I'm sorry, Peng, I messed up as usual.
It's all right, Jojo, you did your best, my friend.
A bird.
Looks like a hyena.
Don't worry, boss.
It's only one.
It's never only one.
They come in packs, sometimes as many as 52.
Oh, is that playing cards?
Either way, they are dangerous.
What are we going to do?
I know what I am going to do.
Run!
Fill!
Think you can outrun a hyena?
I don't have to.
I just have to outrun you.
And from the looks of it, you won't be setting any steeplechase records any
time soon.
See you.
Wait for me, boss.
Greetings, strangers.
This one's stranger still.
Hi.
Nice to meet you.
Yeah.
real treat.
Mmm, you're nice and chunky.
He's 90% fur, 10% polyester.
Ooh, what's in the bag?
Hey, hey, hey, they're mine.
But you can take it.
Consider it a gift for you and your many angry, bloodthirsty pals.
You talk a lot.
One other thing.
What's this?
A map?
Where are you going?
To save my friend at Lion Rock.
Lion Rock?
That area used to be my home.
Haven't been back for years.
Pang, this might be a good time to...
be for the other hyenas.
What happened to you?
The lions chased us away.
It was my fault.
Ever since, I've walked the plains, alone.
You mean we're not surrounded by a horde of hungry hyenas?
Sorry for your loss.
Why don't you come with us?
We could take you back home.
Huh?
I doubt if my family is still there, or if they'll want me back.
There's only one way to find out.
Bang, do you want to take an angry, violent, misunderstood young lady on
this journey with us?
Thanks.
I'd like that.
We all deserve a second chance, don't we, Jojo?
You got me on that one.
So, welcome to the gang.
Please don't eat us.
We'll touch ever again.
This is gonna be fun.
So, I'm Nyala, right?
That's my name.
What would you say my chances of surviving this relationship are out of ten?
If ten would be a long, happy life, placed by the sea with a comprehensive
health care plan.
And one, that guy over there.
Two.
That's what I figured.
You see, I'm a carnival.
I'll eat pretty much anything on legs.
I think you'll find small monkeys are very bony.
Oh, I like crunchy.
You see, texture can be as important as flavor when it comes to fine dining.
She's definitely gonna eat us.
She's teasing you, Jojo.
At least I think she is.
Hey, I'm a hyena.
We like to have a laugh.
Great.
She's got a psychotic sense of humor.
This is gonna end well.
It's late.
We need to rest up.
About time.
I only got little legs.
At home, Ji Long and I would often sleep under the trees.
That's sweet.
Except those on trees.
That's a giraffe.
At least you don't have to wash before bed.
See you in the morning.
Let's move, just in case she fancies some midnight snack.
Now this is my kind of party.
An all-you-can-eat buffet.
I'm guessing that's the main course.
And this is the finger food.
Let's circulate.
Pack it in pain.
You're tickling.
Hello there.
I don't think we've been introduced.
Pleasure to make your acquaintance, though I fear it may be...
fleeting.
Back off, fella!
You're invading my personal space!
I can't help it.
I've got to crush on you.
I don't know what's worse, the pythons or the puns.
Jojo!
I can't breathe!
Where's the hyena?
I'm right here.
Off we go.
Who likes balloon modeling?
There you go.
A puppy dog.
Huh?
Hoo-hoo!
Forget what I said!
She's my hero!
Am I dreaming, or is this real?
Perhaps we should all stay close from now on.
Got there ahead of you, buddy.
It's only me.
I don't blame you for trying to escape.
I would have done the same.
You must miss your family and friends.
Who is that?
Is it a snowman?
Oh, it's your best friend?
I had a best friend too once.
I've never told anyone, but she was a hyena.
But lions and hyenas have always been enemies.
So we played together in secret.
Then one day, we were seen going to a hyena forest, and my parents came
looking for me.
Ade, you shouldn't be here.
It isn't safe.
My mom and dad, hide!
The next morning, they were found at the bottom of the waterfall.
My uncle said the hyenas did it, so the pride drove them away.
I lost everything that mattered to me that day, my parents and my best friend.
I felt alone ever since.
You want to speak?
I trust you.
I know how it feels to grow up with big expectations.
I tried to live up to my father, but sooner or later, you've got to forget
what others want you to be and become what you want to be.
It's time to stand up for yourself.
Thank you, friend.
Guys?
I just realized we're going in the totally wrong direction.
Seriously, we need to turn around and head back into the jungle.
Guys, you're wasting time.
Trust me, we should have turned left back at the...
Found it!
Is this...
Lion Rock?
Keep an eye on the hyenas.
The last thing we need now is a surprise attack.
Hi, Uncle.
What do you want, Ade?
Can I have a quick word?
Sure, take a seat.
So, I just wanted to talk to you about one or two things.
For example, we could get rid of the zebra skins in the palace.
They're just a bit culturally insensitive.
move some of those rocks around, make a nice little rockery, and finally free
the dragon so she can go home to her friends and family.
The dragon is here to freeze every last hyena in the forest.
Yep, It's just that, is that really fair?
I mean, sure, there's one or two hyenas you wouldn't want to go on a picnic
with, but otherwise...
She would protect the hyenas after what they did to your parents.
We don't know what happened to my parents.
And isn't it better to see the good end folks rather than dabbing them?
Oh, I can't breathe right now, so I'm going to pass out.
So let's just put a pin in that idea and go with the rockery.
Remember, I am the real power here, and you will do things my way.
Anything else, Your Majesty?
No, that pretty much covers it.
We're not far now.
We live on the other side.
Hmm, you could swim across that, as long as I don't have to dive in after and
rescue you.
No one can swim that.
We need to find the fallen tree.
The fallen tree?
Of course, the fallen tree.
How could this ever work without the fallen tree?
Like, what fallen tree?
How about that fallen tree?
Follow me.
We used to do this all the time.
Come on, Jojo.
It'll be an adventure.
Why don't you just go on?
Go ahead.
I'll meet up with you all later.
It's all right.
I'll take you on my shoulders, Jojo.
This is terrifying!
I can't bear watch!
Jojo, I can't see either.
Tuff, you wanted an adventure.
Hey.
Here it is.
Our forest.
It's an amazing place.
Pretty standard, if you ask me.
Is anyone home?
Mom, Dad?
It's me, Nyala.
Maybe they never came back.
Sis, is that you?
Lazy?
We've been searching for you for years.
Meet your nephew and niece.
So cute.
What about mom and dad?
Liala, you came home.
Mom, Dad, I've missed you so much.
We feared we'd never see you again.
You crying, Jojo?
Hayfever.
It flares up now and again, like whenever there's an emotional family
reunion type thing.
Be nice.
These are my friends, Pang and Jojo.
Ya-ya-ya-ya Sepia-ya Ya-ya-ya
Ay, ay, ay Almost makes you miss home You maybe, I never had a home I'll surf
at an antelope for a while, but that didn't pan out
You'll find your place one day Jojo.
I promise You're both welcome to stay here as our guests.
Thanks, but we must keep going Pang's friend was taken to Lion Rock.
We need to help her mother We can't There's already too much bad blood
between us and the Lions, but why you know why?
Lions and hyenas have always been enemies
When you were young, you made friends with the lion prince.
Come on, Ade, this way.
Isn't it dangerous?
Chicken.
Who are you calling a chicken?
One day, his parents came looking for him.
Ade, where are you?
This place is dangerous.
Come home at once.
It's my mom and dad.
If they see me here, they'll go crazy.
Ade?
Ade!
Hide.
Ade, is that you?
Come back.
I was there to see the lion parents being helped this way.
stepped down by the current.
And the lion prince's uncle saw it too.
It was an accident, but the lions blamed us and chased us from our home.
We cannot risk angering them again.
But, Mom!
Nyala, you must stay with your family.
Jojo and I will free Geelong from the lions.
Actually, I'm not that keen on lions.
Can I stay with her family?
We can sing more happy songs.
On second thoughts, let's go find your friend.
Do you know why we're here?
Good question.
What's the meaning of life?
A tree falls in a forest, lands on a crocodile, tends into a pair of shoes in
a handbag.
I meant, do you know what we are doing at the hyena forest?
Oh, no idea.
Oh, we have to make sure they don't try a sneak attack.
So stay focused, attentive and alert or you end up as a one.
This is lion country.
We need to be super quiet.
Like a ninja tiptoeing to a field of cushions in his slippers.
Exactly.
I'll be as quiet as a mouse, not a squeak.
Though, let's face it, mice do squeak.
I'll be as quiet as a dead mouse.
As of now.
Not a dying mouse.
They can make a lot of noise, like, No, JoJo, please don't kill me.
I'm only a mouse.
Too late, my friend.
You've been stealing from my cupboard.
I won't do it again.
I promise.
That's me being the mouse.
Well, on this occasion, I might let it slide-- Jojo, will you be quiet?
All right.
Just keep your voice down.
Look who it is.
Our old friend.
Bang, I have something to confess.
I'm not that trustworthy.
You're on your own.
Jojo?
And now?
Get him.
Hmm.
Today marks a turning point.
You will witness how we, with the help of a dragon-- Oh, look what we found, boss.
What is this?
Don't know, but it followed us all the way from Asia.
My name is Fang, and I've come to take my friend home.
Sorry, we've become quite attached.
And so has she.
Jilong!
I promised I would find you.
Best friends stick together, whatever.
Not for long.
We're taking her to the big show.
The big show.
No!
Sorry.
Your dragon friend is going to freeze a forest.
You can't do that now?
and all the hyenas in it.
Jielong, you can't hurt the hyenas.
They're my friends.
Jielong, no!
You will do as we say, or you will never see your little friend again.
Train him up.
Watch the bear.
If he causes any trouble, you know what to do.
Shave him?
Oh, I get ya.
That one, right.
My friends, with this magnificent beast,
We shall rid ourselves of the scourge of the hyenas forever.
Today, we will avenge my family.
Follow me.
Wait!
As your prince, I refuse to allow this.
I command you to stop.
With respect, you couldn't command a chicken, your majesty.
Well, chickens are actually very difficult to command.
They've got a will of their own.
Forward!
To the forest!
Come back here!
I warn you!
Do as I say, or...
Anyone?
No?
Look at you.
Bet you feel pretty dumb right now.
You'd know all about that.
Right.
That's it.
God, out here now.
Your boss wants you.
I'll be back.
No, you won't.
God, out here now.
He was even dumber than he looked.
Jojo, you came back.
I tried to leave, then I realized I had nowhere else to go.
You did this for me once, remember?
You always wanted this medallion, Jojo.
Well, now you've earned it.
What?
No way!
Oh, wow!
Ben!
I hope it brings you as much luck as it brought me.
It didn't bring you that much luck, to be honest.
It brought me you, Jojo.
He's waking up!
Come on, Jojo!
We need to stop them before it's too late!
Hyenas, leave this forest, or stay forever, frozen in time.
We're going nowhere.
Nyala?
Ade?
The hyenas didn't push your parents into the waterfall.
It was just an accident.
And he knows that.
Would you take the word of a hyena over your own kind?
I would.
If you want to destroy them, you have to destroy me too.
We are sworn enemies of the hyenas.
The prince is a traitor.
Take him away.
You have made your choice, nephew.
Live with it or die with it.
Bring forward the dragon.
Freeze them, or you will never see your panda friend again.
No.
We're too late.
No thunderstorm.
I want ice.
No!
Not me!
Them!
You need to cool down.
Best pets ever!
Who else needs a cooling?
I was only obeying orders.
Please!
No, no, no, no, no!
Oh, not again!
Oh, no!
We need to get to the cave to rescue Peng.
You can count on us.
Come on!
I missed you, old friend.
Not as much as I missed you.
Wow!
The forest has been saved!
And we haven't been eaten yet.
Now, that's pretty cool.
What are you gonna do now, big guy?
Melt all over us?
You will pay for interfering in my world.
Stranger from another land.
That's a lame trend.
He's still frozen.
Aha!
Missed.
Run!
Nice forward.
Tasty footwork.
Great defeating actions.
Got any other moves, big boy?
Oops.
You should have stayed in China, Little Bear.
Sayonara!
Sayonara is Japanese!
Jojo!
Jojo.
My dear, brave friend.
Leave him alone!
Get back!
If you value your friend's life, you're coming with me.
Hold on, Pang!
We will save you!
Jojo, say something.
Now you want me to talk.
He's alive.
Yes.
Thanks to Pang's lucky charm.
Cross the river.
Where are we going?
I'll worry about that.
Now move.
Keep going.
No, this has gone too far.
I am a mighty lion, the king of the jungle.
You cannot defeat me.
Well, I am a panda bear.
I am black and white and fluffy, and I'm not running away anymore.
What are you going to do with that?
Dying.
Take my hand.
It's never too late to change.
Oh, it is for me.
Mom?
Elon?
I'm sorry.
I let you down.
Hey!
Jojo, you're alive!
And you do!
And someone can fly!
Just a bit.
Guys, from now on, a few things are going to change.
Lions and hyenas will live together in peace.
Might be a few awkward moments, but I'm sure we'll get there.
We will share our land as friends.
Jilong, you've been a breath of fresh air.
Literally.
And thanks for coming all the way here.
Well, not entirely by choice.
Safe travels, my friends.
And if any of you come to Asia, don't forget to look us up.
I'm going to miss you, Pang.
Well, I'm not going to miss you, Jojo.
Because you're coming with us.
You mean?
For once in his life, he's speechless.
Kang!
You did it!
Oh, he's back!
Now comes a terrible moment for us.
And him.
I hope he can forgive us.
I am back, my friends.
Where is my Jilong?
You trusted us with her, and we failed you, sir.
She's gone.
What do you mean, she's gone?
Together with our son, after you left.
We've searched everywhere.
It is my fault.
I should have been here to protect her.
Who is making snow here?
Hang on!
Ji Long!
That's your new home.
I love it.
You better, because I'm not taking you back.
Geelong, you can fly and make snow.
I guess I'm pretty grown up now, Dad.
Peng, we've missed you so much.
Where have you been?
It's a long story.
They should make it into a movie.
A telepoint monkey in Asia.
He has a nice ring to it, all about a wise and brave monkey.
Not that brave.
A wise and slightly brave monk.
Still overstating it.
Okay, a wise and very occasionally brave, but not that brave monk.
How about Jilong, the Mighty Dragon?
Or Pang, the Fearless Adventurer?
Come on now, guys!
A movie can only have one hero!
