Marsh of Mystery/Transcript

(The Lion Guard and Makini are walking in marsh) 
Kion: 
Come on. I wanna get outta here before nightfall.
Fuli: 
(Sighs) Kion, did we have to through the marsh?
Kion: 
Don't worry Fuli, we'll be on the other side soon. Right Anga? 
Anga: 
Yep. (Anga uses her vision and sees the end of the marsh) I can see the edge of the marsh. The next moja kwa moja stone is just beyond that.
Bunga:
(Bunga is seen on Beshte's back) Ah, c'mon Fuli. This place isn't so bad. And the snails are great.  (Bunga eats a grub) (Crunching)
Ono: 
(Sighs)
Bunga: 
Mmm, extra crunchy.
Fuli: 
It's nice enough for you. You're not in the mud.
Bunga: 
I love mud! "Zuka Zama!" (Bunga jumps into the mud and the mud splashes onto Fuli)
Fuli: 
Ugh! 
Bunga: 
(Laughs) See? It's not so bad.
Fuli: 
Ugh. Could it get any worse?
Creature: 
(Off screen) Get 'em!
Fuli: 
Of course, it can.
(Creatures yelling)
(More mongoose scream)
Beshte:
Ono, any idea what that is?
Ono: 
I'm not sure. I won't know until I see it. Or until someone sees it.
Makini: 
I don't wanna see it. (Makini jumps onto Beshte's back) It sounds mean. 
Kion: 
Anga?
Anga: 
I can't tell. The grass is too thick. 
(Yelling)
Makini: 
C'mon, Ono! I'll get you somewhere save before it attacks!
Beshte: 
Good idea, Makini.
Ono: 
But we don't know what it is yet.
Makini: 
All the more reason to go! (Makini takes Ono away from the Lion Guard)
Ono: 
Wait! Makini!
Kion: 
Get ready, everyone. Here it comes.
(All yelling)
(Mongooses comes out and tries to attack the Lion Guard)
Mongoose: 
(Grunts)
Beshte: 
Aw, it's cute!
Bunga: 
Uh, which it? There's a bunch of them.
Mongoose: 
(Growls)
Kion: 
Hey! Stop! Let's talk for a second.
Krud'dha: 
(Krud'dha is hitting Kion) No time for talkin! Only time for fightin'. (Grunts)
(Fuli tries to stop a mongoose with her paw)
Anga: 
Need some help?
Fuli: 
I got this one, thanks. But here comes one for you.
Anga: 
Not gonna happen (Anga hits the mongoose with her wing)
Mongoose: 
(Screams)
(Another mongoose is hitting Behste)
Beshte: 
Hey, little guy. What's your name? Okay. Well, I'm Beshte!
Mongoose: 
(Groans)
Bunga: 
(Bunga picks up a mongoose) Hey! Pick on someone your own size! Gotta admit, these guys got spirit! Ooh! Maybe too much!
(The scene transitions and Makini is seen carrying Ono)
Makini: 
Don't worry, Ono! I'll keep you safe.
Ono: 
Um, Makini. Makini?
Makini: 
What?
Ono: 
I don't hear the Guard anymore. Can you see them?
Makini: 
Oh. Oh, no!  I... I can't. I just wanted to make sure we were safe from whatever scary creature was attacking!
Ono: 
Makini, we don't even know if was a scary creature.
Makini:
It sure sounded scary! But don't worry! I'll take us back!
Ono: 
No! Wait! You don't have to carry me!
Makini: 
(Nakini sees a blue light) Ooh!(Makini drops Ono)
Ono: 
(Grunts) That's not what I meant!
Makini: 
What is that?
Ono: 
What's what? Why'd we stop?
Makini: 
There'a a blue light! It's floating! Out over the Marsh! And it's beautiful.
Ono: 
A floating blue light? Huh, That sounds like a marsh light.
Makini: 
Just wait till you see it, Ono! It's amazing! I'll get you closer! (Makini picks up Ono again)
Ono: 
Woah! No! Stop! 
Makini: 
Huh?
(The blue light disappears) 
Ono: 
(Grunts) 
Makini: 
Huh. That's weird.
Ono: 
(Groans)  What's weird? 
Makini: 
The light. It's moving away from us.
Ono: 
Huh. It's definitely a marsh light. And we definitely shouldn't follow it!
Makini: 
But we're so close! Let me... (Gasps) Oh, no! Where did it go?
Ono: 
Makini, listen to me. Those lights can be dangerous. 
Makini: 
Oh, I see some more over there. I'll catch one and show you. (Makini follows the blue light while carrying Ono)
Ono: 
No, wait. You can't catch them. No one can! (Cries)
(The blue lights disappears) 
Makini: 
No, no, no.
Ono: 
Makini, you have to stop. If you keep following the lights, we're going to get lost. Ugh. And I am going to get sick.
Makini: 
Don't worry, Ono. There! I think that's where the first one was. That'll lead us back to the Guard, come on. Oh, not again! 
(More lights disappear) 
Ono: 
Let me guess. Those lights disappeared, too? 
Makini: 
(Sighs) Yeah.  I don't understand. The lights were right there. Then they vanished. 
Ono: 
I tried to tell you, Makini. 
Makini: 
Sorry, Ono. I should've listened.  They were just so pretty.
Ono: 
I know, but we can't stay here. We need to find our way back to the Guard.
Makini: 
Right. I can do that.  Um, which way? Ono?
Ono: 
You have to be eyes for both of us, Makini. My vision's even worse in the dark marsh. 
Makini: 
Okay. Um... How about this way? 
Makini: and Ono:
(Makini and Ono fall down a hole) (Screaming) 
(The scene transitions back to the mongooses and they throw mud at the Lion Guard)
Fuli: 
Ugh, Great! Now, they're throwing mud at us!
Kion: 
Fuli! Look out! 
(Kion ducks but Fuli gets hit by mud)
Fuli: 
Argh...
Kion: 
(Laughs) 
Fuli: 
Ugh!
(Another mongoose throws mud at Kion)
Kion: 
Hey! (Growls)
Fuli: 
Easy, Kion, we can't hurt them. We need to find out why they're mad.
Kion: 
Right. Thanks, Fuli.
Bunga: 
(Bunga fights a mongoose) (Grunting) Whew! Trying not to fight is even more work than fighting! 
Mongoose: 
(Growling)
(A mongoose is hitting Beshte)
Beshte: 
Hey, lil' guy. Why are you so mad? 
Mongoose: (Grunting) 
(A mongoose hits Beshte's noise)
Beshte: 
(Laughs) Hey, stop! It tickles! (Sneezes) (Beshte's sneeze blows the mongoose away)
Mongoose: 
(Screams)
Bunga:
Ha- ha! Nice one, Big B.
Beshte:
Thanks, Lil' B. I just hope I didn't hurt him.
Mongoose:
(Yelling)
Bunga:
 Nah! He's fine! They're unstoppable! 
Anga: 
This is ridiculous. "Anga lenga!"
Fuli: 
(Grunts)
(Anga takes all the mongooses and moves them away from the Guard)
Krud'dha: 
Ahhh!
Fuli: 
Thanks.
Bunga: 
Un-Bunga-lievable.
Mongooses: 
(All screaming)
Beshte: 
I hope they're okay.
Anga: 
They're fine.
Fuli: 
I'm sure they'll recover and be back for more soon.
Kion: 
But why were they so mad? 
Bunga: 
(Bunga eats a snail) (Crunching) Beats me. 
Kion: 
Ono, What do you think?  (Kion notices Ono is gone) Ono? 
Fuli: 
(Fuli sees Makini missing) Makini's gone, too.
Beshte: 
Oh, yeah! Makini said she was gonna keep Ono safe. 
Anga: 
Well, it's safe now. 
Bunga: 
Ono! Makini!
Kion: 
Where are they?
(The scene transitions back to Makini and Ono who are seen in a cavern)
Makini:
Where are we?
Ono: 
This must be a cavern below the marsh. Now, we're really lost.
Makini:
 Oh, Ono, I am so, so sorry. I was supposed to be eyes for both of us. And now we're stuck in a hole. But don't worry. I'll get us out of here and find the Guard. And everything will be okay. Hmm.  (Makini tries to climb out) (Strains) Woah! Okay. If I can't climb out... I know! Ono, you can fly out and go get help.
Ono: 
No, I can't. 
Makini:
Why not? Are you hurt?
Ono: 
No! I can't see. Remember? So even if  I flew out of here, I wouldn't know where to go next.
Makini: 
Right, of course. Don't worry. I'll think of something else. I'll get us out of here, Ono. 
Ono: 
Yeah. Maybe we can both think of something.
(The scene transitions back to the rest of the Lion Guard, Anga is seen looking for Makini and Ono)
Anga: 
(Sighs) It's no use. I can't see through the trees. 
Kion: 
Okay. Then we'll have to track them another way. Fuli?
Fuli:
Already on it. (Sniffs) Got it! This way!
(Fuli and Kion sniff out for Makini and Ono)
(Anga stares are Bunga as he's on Beshte's back eating a snail)
Bunga: 
(Crunching) MMM! What? Food helps me think! And I have a great veiw from up here. I might even spot Makini and Ono before you do!
Anga: 
You think so?
Bunga: 
I know so! First one to spot 'em gets a snail! 
Anga: 
Okay. But remember I am the keenest of sight. 
Bunga: 
Oh, yeah? Well, I'm the... keenest of snails!
Fuli: 
(Sniffs)
Mongoose: 
(Off-screen) (Yelling)
Fuli:
Ugh! Not again.
(All yelling)
(The mongooses come back and attack the Lion Guard again)
Bunga: 
Lemme at 'em!
Mongoose: 
(Growls)
Beshte: 
Remember, don't hurt em' Lil' B.
Bunga:
So what am I suppose to do with 'em? Tag. You're it! (Bunga runs)
Pagala: 
Yah! (Pagala runs afterBunga)
Kion: 
Hmm. We don't have time for this. 
Krud'dha: 
(Grunts) I've got you now! (Krud'dha grabs on to Kion's tail)
Kion: 
We need to find Makini and Ono, so we can get out of this marsh and find the next moja kwa moja stone! Let's make a break for it.
Fuli: 
Finally. (Fuli moves the mongoose away from her)
Mongoose: 
(Yelps)
Fuli: 
(Sniffs) This way! "Huwezi!"
Kion: 
Everyone, follow Fuli!
Krud'dha: 
(Krud'dha hangs onto to Kion's tail but let go) (Yelps) We'll get you yet! This isn't over!
(The scene transitions back to Makini and Ono and Ono is seen thinking of an idea)
Ono: 
(Inhales) "Nawaza, nawaza, nawa... Za."
Makini: 
(Makini is seen reaching for a vine) (Grunting)
Ono: 
Makini! I can't think with all of that noise!
Makini: 
(Grunts) (Makini jumps onto the vine) Got it! Now I can just use this root to climb out of here, and...  Ahhh! Oops. (Makini falls and breaks some rocks, then water falls down)
(Rumpling)
Makini: 
Oh, no!
Ono: 
Hurry! (Groans) Now, we really need to find a way out of here.
Makini: 
Sorry, Ono. 
Ono: 
Makini, listen. I need you to sit here and don't touch anything. 
Makini: 
Okay. Sitting and listening. Not touching. (Makini leans on some rocks and they fall)
Makini: 
Oh!
Ono: 
What did you do now?
Makini: 
Nothing! Really! I was just sitting here, like you said, and then... (Gasps) There's a tunnel!
Ono: 
Um... That's our way out!
Makini:
Are you sure? It's awfully dark and creepy down there.
Ono: 
Well it's about to be really wet in here. So, unless you have another plan? 
Makini: 
(Gulps) On a second thought, that tunnel does look nice and dry.
Ono: 
Exactly. 
Makini: 
Sharwi. Okay. Here we go.
(Squeaking)
Ono: 
Did you hear that?
Makini: 
Hear what? I don't hear anything. What did it sound like?
Ono: 
Shh. Listen. I definitely hear something.
(Squeaking continues)
Makini: 
Ooh! I... I hear it, too!  What do you think it is?
Ono: 
I don't know, but it sounds familiar. Hmm. Oh, no! 
(Squeaking)
(Bats come out of the cave and scares Ono)
Ono: 
Look out, MakinI! (Screams)  "Hapana!" 
Makini: 
Sharwi, Ono! They're just bats!
Ono: 
(Shudders) Bats. Why did it have to be bats?
Makini: 
(Laughs) I think that they were kind of cute!
Ono: 
They are not cute! Sorry. I really don't like bats!
Makini: 
It's okay, Ono. They're gone now.
Ono: 
Wait a tick. They could be our way out. We can follow the bats. We just need to keep following this tunnel. 
Makini: 
Which tunnel, Ono? There's two of them.
Ono: 
Oh. I didn't see that. Of course. 
Makini: 
I didn't see which tunnel the bats took either. It's really hard to see down here. It's so dark. I wonder how the bats do it.
Ono: 
That's it! We can try it the same way as the bats. 
Makini: 
Bats can see in the dark?
Ono: 
It isn't exactlly seeing.  It's called echolocation.  
Makini: 
Echo- lo... what again?
Ono: 
Echolocation. The bats make a sound, then listen for the echo. Depending on how loud it is, the bats know which tunnel to take. If it's a loud echo, it's a dead end. But if the echo fades away, then there's an opening and that's the right tunnel. Got it?
Makini: 
Got it! We should do it! How do we do it?
Ono: 
I will do it.  And I'll need complete silence. 
Makini: 
No problem! I'm the best at being quiet. You'll see. You'll be so glad you're stuck down here with me and not anyone else. You'll be able to hear everything! And you'll be able to decide which way to go and we'll be out of here in no time!
Ono: 
(Sighs) This is going to be tougher than I thought.
(The scene transitions back to the rest of the Lion Guard and is still seen looking for Makini and Ono)
Bunga: 
Makini? (Crunching) Ono! Makini! 
Fuli: 
(Sighs) It's really hard to focus with Bunga's yelling. But, I think we're getting close. (Sniffs) Their scent is really storng here.
Kion: 
Good work, Fuli. Anga, can you get a better view here?
(Anga and Bunga both spot Makini's tracks)
Anga: 
There!  I see... 
Bunga: 
Makini's tracks!
(Anga looks at Bunga)
Bunga: 
(Laughs) That's right! I win! Told ya I could see great up here! Where's my prize?
Anga: 
Right down there. (Anga puts Bunga in the mud)
Bunga: 
(Grunts) (Splashing) (Bunga eats more snails) Oh, yeah! Victory tastes so good.
Kion: 
These tracks only lead to more tracks. 
Beshte: 
It looks like Makini was running in circles. 
Fuli: 
(Sniffs) They're scent goes in circles, too. (Sniffs) They were definitely here. And over here.  (SNIFFS) And over here. They were all over this clearing.
Kion: 
That doesn't make any sense.  Why would Makini run in circles?
Fuli: 
Have you met Makini?
(The scene transitions back to Makini and Ono who are still stuck in cavern)
Ono: 
(Snaps) 
Makini: 
Did you do it yet? Was that echolocation?  Which tunnel leads us out? 
Ono: 
Inhales deeply) I need you to be completely silent and listen. Remember?
Makini: 
Oh, right! Yes! I remember! I'll be quiet this time. Listening, not talking. Starting... Now!
Ono: 
(Snaps) 
Makini: 
(Makini puts her hand to ear) I don't hear anything.
Ono:
(Groans) It's no use. It's not working.
Makini:
What? It's not? Why? Let's try again.
Ono: 
The bats make clicking noises like I was doing, but they're louder and higher-pitched, so they create clear echoes. Or maybe they can just hear better than I can.
Makini:
Maybe you just need to make a louder, higher-pitched noise. Let's think. Loud and high-pitched. Loud and high-pitched. Whar sort of noise should it be?
Ono: 
(Gasps) I know the perfect loud and high-pitched noise!
Makini: 
You do? What is it?
Ono: 
Your voice!
Makini: 
Really? You think I'm  high-pitched? 
Ono: 
You sure are!
Makini: 
And loud enough to echo?
Ono: 
Oh, yes! I need you to shout. Then we'll both listen back for the echo!
Makini: 
Oh, yes. That sounds amazing. What should I shout?
Ono: 
Anything.
Makini: 
(Screams) Anything! Anything (Echoes loudly)
Ono: 
Hmm. That echo was pretty loud. That means the tunnel ends not very far from here. Try this one.
Makini: 
(Screams) Anything! (Echo continues) 
(Echo fades)
Makini: 
Oh, that one sounds different. It seems further away each time it echoed. 
Ono: 
Exactly, which means there's an opening at the end. And that means it's our way out. Come on.
(Makini and Ono are seen walking in the caverns)
(Music starts)
Makini:
¶ Just cause we're stuck
¶ Don't mean we're out of luck
¶ Between you and me
¶ We got brains and eyes to see
Ono:
¶ We'll be okay
¶ Cause we're on our way
(Makini puts Ono on her shoulder)
¶ We just got to shout 
¶ To help us find a way out
Makini:
¶ Anything
Ono: 
¶ That's what we can do
Makini:
¶ Anything
¶ Now we know it's true
¶ Anything
Ono:
¶ I know that we'll pull through
Both:
¶ Anything
¶ Together, me and you
(Makini picks up Ono and swings on a vine)
Makini:
¶ We're on the move
¶ Now I think we found our groove
Ono:
¶ Working as a team
¶ Not as hard it might seem
Makini:
¶ We'll be okay
¶ Cause we're on our way
Ono:
¶ You just got to shout
¶ To help us find a way out
Makini:
¶ Anything
Ono:
¶ That's what we can do
Makini:
¶ Anything
¶ Now we know it's true
¶ Anything
Ono:
¶ I know that we'll pull through
Both:
¶ Anything
(Makini and Ono point to each other)
¶ Together, me and you
Ono:
¶ No need to argue
¶ 'Cause now we're in sync
Makini:
¶ As long we slow down
¶ Listen and think
(Makini and Ono climb a vine)
¶ Listen and think
¶ Anything
Ono:
¶ That's what we can do
Makini:
¶ Anything
(Makini and Ono swing on another vine)
¶ Now we know it's true
¶ Anything
Ono:
¶ I know that we'll pull through
Both:
¶ Anything
¶ Together, me and you
¶ Anything
(Ono flys into Makini's hand)
¶ Together, me and you
(Music stops)
Makini: 
(Giggles) Hey! We make a pretty good team. 
Ono: 
Yeah, I guess we do. Hey, the tunnel is sloping up. We must be getting close to the surface.
Makini: 
(Makini sees daylight) (Squeals) Look, I see light.
Ono: 
Not another marsh light.
Makini: 
Nope. Regular old light from the sky.
Ono: 
Good. Lead the way.
(The scene transitions back to the rest of the Lion Guard who continues looking for Makini and Ono)
Kion: 
Look out for clues. Makini and Ono have to be close. 
Bunga: 
(Bunga almost falls into a hole) Woah! Phew! Close one. Hmm. I wonder if... Nah, there probably aren't any snails down there. But I bet there are some under there. (Bunga picks up a log) Yes! (Laughs)  Mmm. (Bunga eats a snail) (Crunching) Mmm.
Krud'dha: 
Get 'em! (Yelling)
(The mongooses attack the Lion Guard again but Kion stops them)
Kion: 
That's enough. Why do you keep attacking us? 
Krud'dha: 
Isn't it obvious? You're eating our snails! 
Kion: 
Snails?
Bunga: 
(Crunching) (Muffled) You mean these snails?
Krud'dha: 
Attack!
Kion: 
(Kion stops the mongoose) Listen, I am really sorry. We had no idea the snails belonged to you. 
Krud'dha: 
We don't want a apology. We want our snails back! And we want you out of our marsh.
Kion: 
We're not leaving until we find our friends. 
Krud'dha: 
(Yelps)
(Makini comes up from the cavern and is covered in mud)
(All Screaming)
Kion: 
Makini?
Makini: 
Hey, Kion. (Makini notices the mongoose) Oh, hello. Who are you? (Grunts) 
(All screaming)
Kion: 
Makini, where's Ono?
Ono:
I'm here. 
Makini: 
I got you, Ono. (Grunts) Come on! (Makini pulls Ono out of the mud and they both bump into a log with snails)
Krud'dha: 
(Gasps) Snails!
(All whooping)
(The mongooses eat the snails)
Bunga: 
Mmm... 
Fuli: 
Don't even think about it.
Ono: 
(Exhales) Hi, everyone. Oh! Mongooses! They sure love snails. Common knowledge, really. 
Fuli: 
Wish you were here earlier, Ono. 
Kion: 
Yeah. What happened to you, guys?
Ono: 
It's a long story.
Makini: 
It sure is. First I followed some lights, then we fell in a hole...
Bungaa: 
I almost fell in a hole, too.
Ono: 
What's important is that Makini kept me safe. And we worked together to find all of you.
Makini: 
Yeah. Turns out, we make a great team. (Makini puts her arm around Ono) 
Anga: 
This way. The next Moja Kwa Moja stone's straight ahead. 
(The scene transitions to sunset and the Lion Guard and Makini continue walking)
Bunga: 
(Bunga sees a marsh light) Hey! What's that? Look at that light. Let's check it out.
Makini:
No, no, no. Wait. That's how we got lost.
(Anga picks up Bunga)
Bunga: 
Hey! (Grunting) Woah! You really can see better from up here. (Gasps) Are those snails? (Grunts) Hey, come on, let me go.
Anga: 
Nope.
(All laughing)
Bunga: 
Please, I'll share them.
