Quotes15

  • Banzai: [In the hyenas' lair, Banzai slouches with claw marks on his rear] Man, that lousy Mufasa... I won't be able to sit for a *week!*
  • Ed the Hyena: [laughs, but also tries his best to conceal it from time to time] Eh-hee-hee-hee. Heh-heheheheheheheheheh...
  • Banzai: [Glares at Ed and bares his teeth with impatience] It's not funny, Ed.
  • Ed the Hyena: [Cups his paws over his mouth then bursts into hysterical laughter, spitting as his tongue lofts out of his mouth] BA-HA-HA-HAAAA! HA-AH-AH-AH-AH!
  • [Inhales deeply]
  • Banzai: Hey, shut up!
  • Ed the Hyena: AH-HA-HO! HO-HO-HO-HO!
  • Banzai: [Bares his teeth] Grrrrrr...
  • [as Ed continues to laugh, Banzai barks and pounces on Ed, abruptly ending his laughing. The two commence a brief fight]
  • Shenzi: [Rolls her eyes and turns to the two yelping and rolling atop each other aggressively] Will you knock it off?
  • Banzai: [ed appears to be chewing on Banzai's leg; Banzai sits up] Well, he started it!
  • [It is now obvious that Ed is chewing his own leg repeatedly]
  • Shenzi: Look at you guys! No wonder we're dangling at the bottom of the food chain!
  • Banzai: [a string of drool dangles from his chin] Man, I hate dangling...
  • Shenzi: [Scoffs] Yeah? You know, if it weren't for those lions, we'd be *runnin'* the joint.
  • [Ed nods idiotically]
  • Banzai: Man, I *hate* lions!
  • Shenzi: [Grumbles] So pushy...
  • Banzai: And hairy...
  • Shenzi: [Smiles] Stinky...
  • Banzai: [Grins] And man are they...
  • Banzai, Shenzi: [Elongated use of the 'u'] U-GLY!
  • [both laugh hysterically]
  • [Timon and Zazu are cornered by hyenas]
  • Timon: Please don't eat me.
  • Pumbaa: Drop 'em!
  • Banzai: Hey, who's the pig?
  • Pumbaa: Are you talkin' to me?
  • Timon: Uh-oh. He called him a pig.
  • Pumbaa: Are you talkin' to me?
  • Timon: Shouldn't have done that.
  • Pumbaa: Are you talkin' to me?
  • Timon: Now they're in for it.
  • Pumbaa: They call me Mr. Pig!
  • [screams as he charges towards the hyenas]
  • Shenzi: Well, well, well, Banzai, what have we got here?
  • Banzai: Hmm, I don't know Shenzi uh, what do you think Ed?
  • Ed the Hyena: Oo ehehe, oh hahahaha
  • Banzai: Yeah, just what I was thinking, a trio of trespassers.
  • Zazu: And quite by accident let me assure you...
  • Shenzi: Whoa, whoa, wait wait. I know you, you're Mufasa's little stooge.
  • Zazu: I madame, am the king's majordomo.
  • Banzai: And that would make you...?
  • Young Simba: The future King!
  • Shenzi: Do you know what we do to kings who step out of their kingdom?
  • Young Simba: Puh, you can't do anything to me.
  • Zazu: Uh-uh, technically they can, we are on their land.
  • Young Simba: But Zazu, you told me they are nothing but slobbery, mangy stupid poachers.
  • Zazu: Ix-nay on the upid-stay...
  • Banzai: Who you callin' upid-stay?
  • Banzai: I thought things were bad under Mufasa.
  • Scar: What did you say?
  • Banzai: I said Muf...
  • [Shenzi elbows him]
  • Banzai: I said ¿que pasa?
  • Scar: Good. Now get out.
  • Banzai: Yeah, but we're still hungry.
  • Scar: Out!
  • Scar: Ah, my friends!
  • Shenzi: Friends? I thought he said we were the enemy.
  • Banzai: That's what I heard.
  • Shenzi, Banzai: Ed?
  • [Ed laughs menacingly]
  • Scar: No. Let me explain. No, you don't understand! No, I didn't mean... No! No!
  • Banzai: But we got to finish the job.
  • Shenzi: Well, he's as good as dead out there anyway. And if he comes back, we'll kill him.
  • Banzai: [calling out to Simba] Yeah! You hear that? If you ever come back, we'll kill you!
  • Scar: Surely we lions are not all that bad.
  • Shenzi: Oh, Scar. It's just you.
  • Shenzi: We were afraid it was somebody important.
  • Banzai: Yeah, you know, like Mufasa.
  • Shenzi: Yeah.
  • Scar: I see.
  • Banzai: Now that's power!
  • Shenzi: Tell me about it. I just hear that name and I shudder.
  • Banzai: Mufasa!
  • Shenzi: Ooooh! Do it again!
  • Banzai: Mufasa!
  • Shenzi: Ooooh!
  • Banzai: Mufasa! Mufasa! Mufasa!
  • Shenzi: Ooooh!
  • [breaks into laughter]
  • Shenzi: It tingles me!
  • Scar: I'm surrounded by idiots.
  • Banzai: Yeah, be prepared. We'll be prepared. For what?
  • Scar: For the death of the king.
  • Banzai: Why, is he sick?
  • Scar: No, fool, we're going to kill him. And Simba, too.
  • Shenzi: Great idea. Who needs a king?
  • Banzai, Shenzi: [singing and dancing around Ed] No king, no king, la la la la la la...
  • Scar: Idiots! There will be a king!
  • Banzai: Hey, but you said...
  • Scar: I will be king! Stick with me, and you'll never go hungry again.
  • Banzai, Shenzi: Yeah! All right! Long live the king!
  • [other hyenas join in]
  • Banzai, Shenzi: Long live the king! Long live the king!
  • Banzai: The little majordomo bird, hippity-hop, all the way to the birdie boiler.
  • Zazu: Oh no, not the birdie boiler!
  • [Zazu rockets away, with his tail feathers on fire while the hyenas laugh in triumph]
  • Banzai: Hey, Boss.
  • Scar: Oh, what is it this time?
  • Banzai: We got a bone to pick with you.
  • Shenzi: I'll handle this. Scar, there's no food, no water.
  • Banzai: Yeah. It's dinner time and we ain't got no stinking entrées.
  • Scar: It's the lionesses' job to do the hunting.
  • Banzai: Yeah, but they won't go hunt.
  • Scar: Oh... Eat Zazu.
  • Zazu: Oh, you wouldn't want me. I'd be so tough and gamey and...
  • Scar: Oh, Zazu, don't be ridiculous. All you need is a little garlic.
  • Shenzi: What's the hurry? We'd love you to stick around for dinner.
  • Banzai: Yeah. We could have whatever's "lion" around.
  • Shenzi: Oh wait, wait, wait. I got one, I got one. Make mine a "cub" sandwich. Whatcha think?
  • [all laugh]
  • Shenzi: [Ed points]
  • Shenzi: What, Ed?
  • Banzai: Hey, did we order this dinner to go?
  • Shenzi: No, why?
  • Banzai: 'Cause THERE IT GOES!
  • Shenzi: Do you know what we do to kings who step out of their kingdom?
  • Young Simba: Puh. You can't do anything to me.
  • Zazu: Technically, they can. We are on their land.
  • Young Simba: But Zazu, you told me they're nothing but slobbering, mangy, stupid poachers.
  • Zazu: Ix-nay on the upid-stay.
  • Banzai: Who are you callin' upid-stay?
  • Zazu: My, my, my. Look at the sun. It's time to go!
  • Shenzi: Hey. There he goes. There he goes.
  • Banzai: So go get him.
  • Shenzi: There ain't no way I'm going in there. What, you want me to come out there looking like you? Cactus-Butt?
  • Shenzi: What's the hurry? We'd love you to stick around for dinner.
  • Banzai: Yeah, we could have whatever's lion around!
  • Shenzi: Wait, wait, wait, I got one, I got one! Make mine a cub sandwich. Whaddya think?
  • Shenzi: [Banzai's stomach growls] Shut up.
  • Banzai: I can't help it. I'm so hungry... I gotta have a wildebeest.
  • Shenzi: Stay *put*.
  • Banzai: Well... can't I just pick off one of the little sick ones?
  • Shenzi: NO! Wait for the signal from Scar.
  • [Scar appears on the horizon]
  • Shenzi: There he is. Let's go.
