[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
[ROARS]
NARRATOR: The Lion Guard.
KION: Swept Away.
Well, everyone, I'm afraid we have no other choice.
[DEEP BREATH] Panic and...
Stop! You can't run!
[ZEBRAS STRAINING AND GROANING]
We can still panic.
You don't need to panic.
We just have to figure out how to get you unstuck.
I simply don't understand.
There used to be a river here.
But now everything is so dry.
That's because it's the dry season.
Ah, the dry season. I see.
But where'd all the water go?
[SIGHS] Maybe it panicked and ran.
You know what we could really use? Some rain.
Oh, yes. Capital idea.
Well, obviously. [SIGHS]
Is no one listening to me?
We need to hurry, Kion.
This mud's getting drier by the second.
If it dries up completely, we'll never get all these zebras out!
Actually, all we need is one dark cloud.
You mean like that one?
What are you thinking, Kion?
I'm thinking Bunga's right.
We need it to rain.
Okay. So where are we gonna get rain from?
-The Roar. -[GASPS]
It's made it rain before.
What? This I gotta see!
Do it, Kion! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!
Do it! Do it! Do it!
Okay. Everyone, prepare to get wet.
[DEEP BREATH]
[ROARS]
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
The Roar can make it rain!
Un-Bunga-lievable!
Ugh. That's rain, all right.
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
Hapana!
[THURSTON GRUNTING]
Oh! Huzzah!
Nice job on the rain, Kion.
Thanks, Beshte.
[SHIVERING] Now if only there was a Roar to make it stop.
It'll stop any second.
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY] See?
Poa! This is great!
The ground is really thirsty.
The ground might be thirsty, Beshte,
but it's so dry, it can't absorb all this water.
And there's nowhere for it to go.
[IN A PANICKED VOICE] Oh, it's going somewhere, all right. Look!
[WATER RUSHING]
Hapana! [WHIMPERS]
Lion Guard! We gotta get these zebra to safety!
Fuli, round up the zebras!
Beshte, see if you can block the water!
You got it, Kion!
FULI: This way! Huwezi!
I don't understand.
You said it was the dry season.
Uh-oh.
[ZEBRAS STRAINING]
[PANTING]
[WHINNYING]
[GROANING]
Twende...
Ki...
Bo...
Ko! [SCREAMS]
[SCREAMING]
[GRUNTS]
[GASPS]
Whoa!
[GRUNTS]
Poa.
That was the craziest water slide ever!
Right, guys?
Guys?
Wait. I'm in the Outlands!
I better get back to the Pride Lands and make sure everyone else is okay.
Anybody hurt?
Nope. We're okay.
Yes.
See? You didn't have to panic and run.
Hmm. You're right.
Zebras, remember that for next time.
Panicking was enough.
[SIGHS]
That was un-Bunga-lievable, Kion!
The Roar made it rain!
Yeah, but it was a lot more rain than I was expecting.
Good job blocking that wave, Beshte.
Beshte?
Hey, Big B? Where you hiding?
Big B? Big B!
How'd we manage to lose a whole hippo?
All that water.
It must've swept him away!
-Beshte? -Washed away?
Nah. He's Big B!
You know? Big.
Then again, that was an awful lot of water.
And it was moving awfully fast.
Hevi kabisa.
I should have thought of that before I used the Roar.
But you saved the zebras.
Let's just hope Beshte's okay.
'Course he's okay.
He's Big B. He's gotta be okay!
Uh, he is gonna be okay, right?
Ono, take a look and see if you can spot him.
Affirmative!
Come on, Beshte. Where are you?
Phew.
It's really hot.
The sun's gonna burn me if I'm not careful.
I better find some shade.
The riverbed might be the fastest way home
but at least this way I'll be able to find some shade and see more of the Outlands!

Who knows how far the rushing water took him.
KION: At least we know what direction he went.
Yeah, that's good, I guess.
Unless that direction was the Outlands.
No sign of Beshte.
And the water's already drying up.
Hippos don't do so well in the sun
without any water or mud to cover their skin.
Then we've gotta find him fast. Come on!
Wait for me.
[SIGHS]
That's better.
SHUPAVU: What are you doing in the Outlands, hippo?
Huh? Oh. Hey there, little lizard.
I'm just looking for shade on my way back to the Pride Lands.
We could use you for shade!
[CHUCKLES] Yeah.
I bet you could!
We can help you find more shade if you like.
-You can? -Of course we can.
Poa! Like my dad says,
"You can make friends wherever you go."
[CHUCKLES] How sweet.
Now, follow me.
He's got to be around here somewhere.
[SIGHS] Better tell Kion.
I looked all over the Outlands, and there's no sign of him.
I feel terrible.
Don't beat yourself up, Ono.
This is my fault, not yours.
[SIGHS] He's out there all alone.
Wait. Beshte's probably the only hippo in the Outlands.
So even if we can't find him, we should find signs of him.
Ono, could you look for hippo prints?
If we find those, they should lead to Beshte.
I wasn't even looking for footprints.
You got it, Kion!
And maybe you and I can track him by scent.
[SNIFFING]
Good thinking, Fuli.
[BOTH SNIFFING]
You smell him? [SNIFFING]
I don't smell him.
[INHALES DEEPLY, BREEZE BLOWS]
Whoa! What is that smell?
[EXCLAIMS]
[SIGHS] That's you, Bunga.
[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY] Oh, yeah.
[SNIFFING DEEPLY]
Pure Bunga.
Bunga, why don't you stay downwind of us
so we can track Beshte without any...
Interference.
Hmm. Got it.
I know! I can shout for him so he knows we're looking for him!
[SHOUTS LOUDLY] Beshte!
[SHOUTING] Beshte!
Oh, yeah. That's much less annoying.
[SNIFFING]
[SHOUTING] Beshte!
It don't matter what he says.
You two always gotta listen to me.
[LAUGHING] You got it, boss.
Eh? What'd he say?
He said, listen to me.
Uh, Cheezi? I was listening to you.
-Not me-me. Him-me. -Who me?
So sad.
Psst. Ushari!
I'm right here.
Yeah, well, I got a secret you might wanna know.
Secret?
That hippo from the Lion Guard is stuck in the Outlands.
Alone.
Is he, now?
Shupavu's keeping an eye on him right now.
Well, who cares about a hippo?
[WHOOSH]
I care.
Oh, yeah! Yeah! I care tons!
Me, too!
Uh... why do we care?
Because if the Lion Guard's strongest is alone in the Outlands,
it's the perfect opportunity to eliminate him.
Yes.
It will weaken the Lion Guard.
Correct, Ushari.
And then you hyenas will get to eat whatever you like in the Pride Lands.
[LAUGHING]
-Whatever we want? -Yum!
First we gotta take out Beshte.
But he's the strongest.
How are we supposed to do that, boss?
[WHISPERING] Don't call me boss in front of the boss.
In case you fools haven't noticed,
it's the dry season.
Too much sun makes hippos weak.
Since Beshte already seems to trust you skinks,
we can use that to our advantage.
I have a plan.
Listen to him, boys, he has a plan.
Him you? Or Him-him?
Just listen.
Scar always has a plan! Big plans!
Correct. Big plans indeed.
Now, here's what I want you to do.
Thanks again for finding me shade.
The Pride Lands are all the way on the other side of Rocky Plateau.
But I don't think I can make it across without getting burned.
I got ya covered!
Literally. I know a shortcut.
-Through the caves under Rocky Plateau. -You do?
And you're sure that's the right way to go?
Sure I'm sure.
It'll keep Beshte outta the sun so he won't burn.
Trust me.
That'd be Poa. Let's go.
The cave's this way. Follow me.
Who knew folks were so helpful in the Outlands?
Lucky I found you guys. I mean, lucky you found me.
Whew! Let's go.
Yes. Totally lucky.
This way.
He's falling for it! [LAUGHS]
This plan's gonna work out great.
[LAUGHING] I don't know, Janja.
Your plans don't usually work out so good.
[GROWLING] This ain't my plan, fur-brain, remember? It's Scar's.
Oh, yeah, right.
Oh, then maybe it will work.
Exactly!
Hey!
[SIGHS] Never mind.
Come on, fur-brains. Let's get over to Rocky Plateau.
We got work to do.
[LAUGHING]
[SNIFFING]
[GROANS] I thought I had him, but...
[SNIFFING] Yeah, I'm not having much luck tracking him either.
[SIGHS] It's hard to smell somebody's scent
when it's been washed away by so much water.
[SIGHS] I hope Ono's having better luck.
Come on, Beshte...
Where did you go?
Those look like...
[GASPS] Hippo prints!
Of course. Beshte went into the cave to get out of the sun!
Kion, Kion! I know where Beshte went!
-You found him? -Not exactly. Just follow me.
His tracks lead in here.
Nice work, Ono.
Whoa! Look at that!
-What is it? -Big B. He has really big feet!
-Because he's a hippo, Bunga. -Oh, yeah.
Beshte must have gone in to get shelter from the sun.
Come on!
So are we getting close to the end of the caves?
Oh, we're getting close to the end, all right. [SNICKERS]
[WHISPERS] You got a plan, right?
Oh, yeah.
Hurry up.
[INHALES] Okay.
[GRUNTS]
Phew! That was a tight squeeze.
Uh-oh. Hey, little skinks?
I think we made a wrong turn somewhere.
This is a dead end.
JANJA: You got that right!
-Janja! -[HYENAS LAUGHING]
-[LAUGHING] And us! -Hello!
Skinks! You gotta get outta here! Back the way we came, before...
Now!
[CHUNGU AND CHEEZI GRUNTING]
Little skinks! Look out!
-Uh-oh. -That's right! You're trapped!
And we got lots more rocks up here!
[LAUGHING MANIACALLY]
But not for long! [GRUNTS]
At least those little skinks got away safe.
But I thought the skinks was with us?
The hippo don't know that!
Come on, we got more rocks to push!
[GRUNTING]
Oh, boy! I don't think I want to be around when that rock hits.
I just gotta unblock the entrance.
Twende Kiboko! [ECHOING]
[GASPING] ALL: Beshte!
[GRUNTING]
Ah!
[SCREAMING] Beshte!
Bunga! Not helping!
-Bunga? -It's not, huh?
Beshte, glad to hear you're okay.
Thanks, Kion. But, uh...
I've kind of got a hyenas and falling rock situation here.
They're pushing down rocks from an opening to Rocky Plateau.
And I'm pretty sure they're trying to hit me.
I know where that is!
I flew over it while I was looking for Beshte.
Hang in there, Beshte. We'll handle those hyenas!
Okay.
-Hurry. I'm running outta places to go! -[LOUD CRASH]
Let's go! Till the Pride Lands end...
ALL: Lion Guard defend!
This way!
[PANTING]
Ono, wait! We can't just fly up there.
You can't, but I can get pretty close to flying.
Huwezi!
Follow her.
[GRUNTING]
[LAUGHING] Heh-heh. That one hit real loud. This is fun!
Who cares how loud it is, fur-brain? Hit the hippo!
-We could if he'd stop moving. -Huh?
Hey, Beshte. Maybe you could hold still a second?
I don't think so.
Ha! He's running outta room!
Now for the big one.
[GRUNTING]
Uh-oh.
[LAUGHING]
One smooshed hippo, coming up!
Not so fast, Janja!
Ah! Whoa. Fuli, keep that rock from falling in!
On it, Kion!
Totally on it.
[SNARLS] Back away, Janja.
-[PECKING SHARPLY] -Hey! Stop with the pecking!
-[CHOMPS, BITE] -[GRUNTING]
-[SNARLING AND LAUGHING] -[GRUNTS]
-Hey! -[GROWLING, PECKING]
Beshte! Get out of there.
Twende Kiboko!
[GRUNTING]
Thought you could hurt one of the Lion Guard, did you?
Oh? Is the hippo down there one of the Lion Guard?
I had no idea.
[FORCED LAUGH] We were just having some fun.
[WHIMPERS]
Hmm? So I got nowhere to run, eh, cub?
Actually, you can have all the room you need.
[ROARS]
[WIND RUSHING, HYENAS SCREAMING]
[ROARING]
I never get tired of that.
No rain this time, though. Oh, well.
Least we got rid of the hyenas and saved Big B.
[GASPS]
-Bunga! -Beshte!
Big B?
BESHTE: Boy, that last rock sure was a doozy, huh?
[SIGHS]
I thought I was gonna have to be Big B from now on.
Nah. I'm still here.
[SCREAMING]
[SCOFFS] So much for that plan.
I guess Scar's plan worked out as good as one of yours.
[LAUGHING] Huh, Janja?
You think he's gonna be mad?
You know, maybe we don't gotta go right back to the volcano.
USHARI: Janja? Hyenas?
Scar wants to see you.
Now.
And he's not happy.
[VOLCANO ERUPTING]
-[GULPS] -[WHINES]
Oh, boy.
Beshte, I'm so sorry I got you swept into the Outlands.
That's okay, Kion. It's not like you did it on purpose.
You were helping the zebras.
Yeah, and it all worked out great.
Plus, we got to see all the hyenas go flying! [CHUCKLES]
Yeah, and that never would've happened if you guys hadn't come to look for me.
You can always count on us, Beshte.
You know it, Big B.
-[SLAPS] -Ow.
Ooh. You really did get burned out there.
Yeah. It's good to be home.
Where there's lots of shade.
And mud!
Oh, yeah! Gotta love it!
Ugh. Do we?
[LAUGHING]
