SIDE 1
TIMON, PUMBAA
(offstage, war-whooping)
Eeeee-yaaaaa!
(PUMBAA and TIMON enter and charge at the birds, which scatter.)
TIMON
Get out! Get out! Get out of here!
PUMBAA
I love this! Bowlin' for buzzards!
(sniffs YOUNG SIMBA)
Uh-oh. Hey, Timon, ya better come look. I think it's still alive.
TIMON
All righty... what have we got here?
(realizing)
Yikes, it's a lion! Run, Pumbaa! Move it!
PUMBAA
Aw, Timon - look at him. He's so cute and all alone. Can we keep him?
TIMON
Pumbaa, are you nuts? You're talking about a lion! Lions east guys like us!
PUMBAA
But he's so little.
TIMON
He's gonna get bigger!
PUMBAA
Maybe he'll be on our side!
TIMON
That's the stupidest thing I ever heard.
(light bulb)
Hey! I've got it! What if he's on our side? Ya know, havin' a lion around might not be such a bad idea!
