[ZEBRAS NEIGHING]
BUNGA: Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Hold it zebra-deebras!
It's the giraffes' turn to use the watering hole!
This is an outrage!
We just want a drink of water!
You'll get one. You just need to wait your turn.
Indeed. Sharing water is part of the Circle of Life.
But, giraffes are so slow!
With those long necks it takes them forever to swallow.
Everyone gets on edge when the water's running low.
It'll be okay.
As long as we can keep them from fighting over it.
Well, it's been pretty peaceful so far.
[GORILLA ROARING]
[ROARING]
What is that?
Me, Shujaa!
-Think he's trying to cut the line? -[SHUJAA ROARS]
[SCREAMS] Panic and run! Panic and run!
[ANIMALS CLAMORING]
Beshte! Ono! Get the herds somewhere safe!
You got it, Kion!
ONO: Affirmative!
We've gotta stop that gorilla.
You sure about that?
BUNGA: Thought you'd never ask.
Shujaa ponda!
No! Stop tearing up the Pride Lands!
Yeah! Or you'll have to deal with the Lion Guard!
Lion Guard? Okay.
You asked for it!
Zuka Zama!
[GRUNTING]
Mmm. [CHUCKLES]
Back rub good. Higher?
Yeah, okay!
-Take this! And this! And this! -Mmm.
Bunga, you can stop.
Shujaa seems...friendly.
He does?
Huh.
Then, my work here is done.
So you're not here to make trouble?
No! Shujaa help Lion Guard.
Shujaa save water from long-necks and stripes.
"Save?" [CHUCKLES]
Shujaa, I think you misunderstood.
ONO: Kion!
The zebras and giraffes are safe
and-- [GASPS] Hapana! Sorry! My mistake!
We haven't met, have we?
Shujaa new.
Sent by King Sokwe!
The gorilla king of the Theluji Mountains?
That King Sokwe?
He hear bad Outlanders hurt Pride Lands.
He say, "Shujaa, go help Lion Guard!
Do what Shujaa do best!"
And what does Shujaa do best?
Shujaa ponda!

That is pretty impressive.
Adult gorillas can pick up ten times their body weight.
Common knowledge, really.
Strongest in the mountains, meet the strongest in the Pride Lands!
You strong, too?
Show Shujaa!
Aw, I don't like to show off.
It's okay, Beshte. Show him.
Okay, I guess...
Twende Kiboko! [GRUNTS]
Oh, Beshte very strong!
Shujaa and Beshte play catch!
[ONO SQUAWKS]
I think I'll stay up here for a while.
King Sokwe was right. We can definitely use your help.
ONO: Maybe sooner than you think!
The hyenas, crocs, and jackals are attacking Big Springs!
They're facing off against Basi!
Dad? Oh, no!
No! [SNORTS] Dad in danger?
Not for long. Come on, Shujaa!
Until the Pride Lands end...
ALL: Lion Guard defend!
Shujaa defend, too!
Okay, here's the plan...
Shujaa have plan!
Shujaa ponda!
[SNARLING]
That's far enough!
This is our territory!
Not for long.
Get them!
[SHUJAA ROARS]
Me Shujaa!
What's a "Shujaa"?
I think it's the biggest baboon I've ever seen!
Who cares how big he is?
We got him outnumbered!
We sure do.
Numbers not matter! Shujaa can't count!
[GRUNTS]
[REIREI & GOIGOI YELP]
Think he needs our help?
[SHUJAA GROWLS]
Shujaa ponda!
[REIREI & GOIGOI YELPING]
Looks like he's got it under control.
Shujaa...[GRUNTS] ponda!
Takes more than a few flying rocks to scare a croc!
[BOULDERS RUMBLING]
[BOTH SCREAMING]
What do we do, Janja?
[GROWLS]
We run, fur brains! We run!
[HYENAS WHIMPERING]
Shujaa ponda!
[HYENAS SCREAMING]
[ANTELOPES SQUEALING]
Now we run!
That was un-Bunga-lievable!
Shujaa ponda.
Thanks, Shujaa.
That was poa!
It was pretty great.
It was, but look!
Hey! Who put these boulders on my den?
MASIKIO: Lion Guard?
A little help?
[ANTELOPES BRAYING]
Shujaa do bad?
No! Shujaa did great!
We just might have a little clean-up to do.
SCAR: The Lion Guard defeated you?
-Again? -No! Scar, it ain't what you think!
Yeah! It was a big gorilla that defeated us again.
I mean, for the first time.
That's right! The Lion Guard just stood there and watched.
One gorilla beat all of you?
Well, yeah. But, he was huge!
And strong!
You should've seen him!
Ripping up trees. Throwing boulders.
He even knocked down a whole hillside!
Hmm.
So a gorilla is tearing up the Pride Lands
while trying to help the Lion Guard?
[CHUCKLES] That's perfect!
-It is? -Of course!
It means all we have to do is keep attacking.
Then, he'll do more damage to the Pride Lands
than we ever could!
[CACKLING]
Sorry about your den, Muhangus.
Shujaa just try help hippos.
Help hippos? Hippos are huge! They don't need help.
Well, they kinda did.
ONO: Okay, Kion!
The oryxes are all untangled now
And the hares are out!
-Thank you. -See ya!
BESHTE: Twende Kiboko!
That's the last one, Muhangus.
All your den entrances are uncovered.
What about that one?
Ooh! Shujaa get.
Shujaa help aardvark!
Oops.
Maybe you should just let us handle the cleanup.
Are you kidding? Mashed termites are my favorite!
Thanks, Shujaa!
Uh, I don't think there's time to eat.
The hyenas, crocs and jackals are back in the Pride Lands!
-Where? -On the Savannah,
just beyond Nyani Grove!
Then, we'll go through the Grove and cut 'em off!
Until the Pride Lands end...
ALL: Lion Guard defend!
Shujaa defend!
How we doing, Ono?
ONO: They're still coming, Kion!
Looks like they're after some antelope!
You'll see them once we get through these trees!
Cut through Grove? Shujaa help!
Shujaa ponda!
KION: Shujaa, wait! Baboons...
[BABOONS GIBBERING]
...live in those trees.
Well, [SCOFFS] they used to.
ONO: [GASPS] Hapana! Look where they're going!
[BABOONS GIBBERING]
[ALL CLAMORING]
Fuli, Beshte! Stop those buffaloes!
-On it! -Got it!
Bunga, Ono, you're with me!
-Gotcha! -Affirmative!
Shujaa ponda!
Shujaa, stop!
SHUJAA: Shujaa clear path! [GRUNTS]
[SNARLING]
Anybody see that big gorilla?
[ROARS]
Path clear, Kion.
[SNICKERS]
Scar was right. That guy's a menace.
Come on!
[ANTELOPE GRUNTING]
We'll never catch them before they reach the antelopes.
Ono! Tell the antelopes to take cover in the Grove.
On it!
-Shujaa ponda? -You won't need to.
Just stay behind me.
Wait until you see this!
Antelopes! Hurry!
Follow me into Nyani Grove!
[ROARS]
[ALL SCREAMING]
That best thing ever!
Thanks, Shujaa.
Well, we stopped the stampede and no one got hurt.
So that was the good news.
And then, there's the bad news.
Nyani Grove is a mess.
Shujaa clean!
[GRUNTS]
[ALL SCREAM]
[BIRDS SQUAWKING]
KION: Shujaa! No!
Don't touch anything!
But, Shujaa want to help.
You do help, Shujaa. And we're really grateful.
It's just, sometimes...
Sometimes you don't know your own strength.
I know his own strength!
It's almost as un-Bunga-lievable as Beshte's!
Yes, but when Beshte uses his strength,
he doesn't cause all this damage.
I just know how to control my strength. That's all.
Hey! Maybe I can teach Shujaa
how to control his strength.
That's actually a great idea.
What do you think, Shujaa?
Want me to teach you how to control your strength?
Shujaa no understand.
But, if Shujaa with Beshte,
Shujaa say "okay".
Oh, great! Let's go!
Hmm. Let's see, what should I show you first?
LAINI: Beshte? Beshte! Is that you?
-Hey, Laini! -[SCREAMS] What is that?
What? Where?
[LAUGHS] It's okay, Laini.
This is Shujaa. He's my friend.
Uh, if you say so.
So, what's the kerbubble?
It's that serval! He jumped into our tree and won't leave!
We're sure he wants to eat us.
SERVAL: No, I don't!
I jumped up here to catch a bird, but it flew away.
And I'm not as good at jumping down as I am at jumping up.
Okay, Shujaa. First lesson:
What should we do about a stuck serval?
Shujaa tear down tree! Serval fall out!
ALL: No!
Shujaa, this tree is the galagos' home.
You can't just tear it down.
You gotta think first, then act.
Hmm. "Think." Okay. Shujaa try.
Oh! Idea!
Thanks! It feels great to be down from there.
So long, galagos.
Good thinking, Shujaa.
Aw, Shujaa thank Beshte.
[SCREAMING]
Oops.
Phew! Good thing Ndefu Grove's got a lotta trees!
Shujaa think he flip that tree now! Fly galagos back home!
That's okay! We're good! We'll get back on our own! Thanks, though!
It's okay, Shujaa.
You didn't know the tree would spring back.
Hey! Here's a chance to try again.
See? Even teeny tiny Pride Landers sometimes need help.
Oh!
Pretty bug stuck.
Yep. So you'll need to be extra gentle to help him.
Very gentle.
Right. Now, think about what you need to do.
Shujaa move little rocks first!
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
Beshte, look!
Pretty bug free! [LAUGHS]
You did it, Shujaa!
Shujaa did it!
[RUMBLING]
Oops.
BESHTE: It's okay, Shujaa.
The big rock didn't actually land on anybody.
And you did save the butterfly.
[GRUNTS] True.
[KIFARU MOANING]
Kifaru?
-Kifaru? -[GRUNTS]
Are you okay?
Is that you, Beshte?
Sure is. Where's your tickbird?
I gave Mwenzi the day off.
And now I can't find the watering hole.
Hear that? Kifaru needs our help.
Who's that with you...
a pangolin?
Pangolin?
Rhinos can't see too well.
That's why he needs us to help him out of this dead end.
Easy!
Shujaa ponda!
Watering hole...
[GRUNTS] That way!
KIFARU: Ooh!
I'll take your word for it.
Thank you!
It feel good to help.
It does, but...
[SQUEAKING]
Beshte? Why little fuzzies so sad?
They're rock hyraxes,
and you just kind of, uh, smashed their home.
No! No! No!
What Shujaa do? What Shujaa do?
Easy, Shujaa. We can still help.
Don't worry, little hyraxes. We can find you a new home!
[SQUEAKING]
Come on, Shujaa!
Let's get these hyraxes a new place to live!
It no use! Shujaa no think, bad!

Shujaa? Are you okay?
ONO: Beshte! Shujaa!
Kion needs you!
The Outlanders are attacking Big Springs again!
And this time there's a fire!
Oh, no! Shujaa, come on!
We have to help!
If Shujaa help, Shujaa make worse.
Shujaa stay.
But, Shujaa...
Beshte, the fire is spreading!
I won't give up on you, Shujaa. You're my friend.
I'll come back when the fire's out.
[GRUNTS]
[GRUNTING]
-BUNGA: Zuka Zama! -[GRUNTS]
[CROCODILES SNARLING]
Say goodbye, hippo!
BESHTE: Twende Kiboko!
[GRUNTS]
Beshte! Just in time!
BESHTE: Better get the pod into the water, it's the safest place!
This way, hippos! Everyone into the Springs!
[YELPS]
Kion! What can I do?
We need you on fire breaks!
I'm not gonna lose another part of the Pride Lands!
I got it!
How we doing?
[SNARLING]
Not great.
You gotta use the roar!
Can't! It'd spread the fire everywhere.
ONO: Hapana! Kion! Fuli! Bunga!
[GASPS]
[GRUNTS]
ALL: Beshte!
Hapana!
Beshte, are you okay?
[GROANS]
It's-- It's my leg.
I can't get up!
The fire's getting closer!
That's okay, we'll get you out of here, Big B!
[STRAINING]
It might take a while.
We're not strong enough to move him.
Ono, get Shujaa!
Tell him Beshte's hurt, and we need him now!
Affirmative!
Shujaa! Follow me to Big Springs!
Hmph! No! Shujaa no move!
If Shujaa stay, Shujaa no mess up.
But. it's Beshte! He hurt his leg.
He needs you, Shujaa!
Beshte need Shujaa?
Ono! Take Shujaa! Now!
[ALL GRUNTING]
[STRAINING]
SHUJAA: Shujaa ponda!
Shujaa! You came!
Shujaa help Beshte!
Hmm.
Beshte leg hurt, so...
[GRUNTS]
Shujaa, you did it!
You thought first and you controlled your strength!
Shujaa did?
Yes! You knew my leg was hurt,
so you were careful and strong!
Shujaa careful and strong.
Shujaa make no trouble no more!
[LAUGHS]
Now, Shujaa help Lion Guard!
Shujaa think, then Shujaa ponda!
Leave Lion Guard alone!
Hey! What do you think you're doing?
You not listen? Shujaa think,
Shujaa ponda!
Whoa! He sure ponda-ed them good!
Oh, I'm not waiting around for him to ponda me!
Me, neither.

[CROCODILES SCREAMING]
TAMKA: Gorilla!
[KIBURI & TAMKA GROAN]
Now, Shujaa help put out fire!

You did great, Shujaa.
We couldn't have saved Big Springs without you.

And a great ally.
We're lucky King Sokwe sent you here.
