Pumbaa : But everyone's gonna get confused.
[picks up his own remote and rewinds film]
Pumbaa : We gotta go back to the beginning of the story.

Shenzi : I don't think so!
Timon : Shenzi Marie, please. I know what you're thinking: "We're too different." "It'll never work." "What will the children look like?"
Shenzi : Ooh, that violates so many laws of nature.
Timon : Listen to me! The problems of a couple of wacky kids like us don't amount to hill of termites in this nutty circle-of-life thing. And so I ask you: If not now, when? If not me, who? I'm lonely.
Pumbaa : Can I be your best man?
Banzai : I say we skip the wedding, and go straight to the buffet!

Nala : [sighs] You guys want me to go over it again?
Timon : Yes please, but be a dear and skip to the part about Simba. Not that your childhood wasn't fascinating!
Nala : OK. Look, Simba's the rightful king, but after he disappeared, Scar proclaimed himself the king and formed an alliance with the hyenas...
Pumbaa : [Thinks] Poor Simba. The treachery, the villainy, the SURE INDESCRIBABLE HORROR!
Timon : [Thinks] Blah blah blah! WHY IS SHE TOYING WITH US? AAH! THIS CRAZY CHICK IS GONNA EAT US!
Nala : [continues to explain] ... So Simba has to go back to challenge his uncle and reclaim his place as king!
