==History==
===The Lion Guard===
===="The Search for Utamu"====
Ono spots three galagos about to fall off a tree branch. Fuli speeds to the tree and manages to catch the falling galagos on her back. Thankful for their rescue, the galagos then hug Fuli.
===="The Call of the Drongo"====
Galagos appear in the musical sequence "Bird of a Thousand Voices".
===="The Trouble With Galagos"====
A galago named Laini along with her group are scared away from their tree by Badili the leopard. They consult the Lion Guard and seek shelter at Hakuna Matata Falls, until being frightened by Pumbaa's flatulence. The galagos decide to stay with the Guard, still being terrified by Badili despite his friendly nature. Once the Guard helps Badili fight off a rival leopard Mapigano from his territory, the galagos are returned to their home.
===="The Little Guy"====
The Lion Guard rescues Laini and her fellow galagos from a fallen tree.
===="The Kilio Valley Fire"====
After Ma Tembo's herd is ousted from Kilio Valley from a fire, Kion requests that the herd temporarily stay with Laini and her galagos. At first, Laini is receptive to the elephants staying in her home, but once their heavy plods start making the ground shake and causing galagos to fall out of trees, she appeals to Kion to take them elsewhere.
Later, a new fire breaks out at Ndefu Grove. The Lion Guard rushes to the grove, where Laini begs them to save her galagos. Bunga, Fuli, and Kion quickly pinpoint the galagos, who are trapped in a tree, and save them from the flames. However, as they are delivering them safely back to Laini, Beshte informs them that the fire is not being put out fast enough. Kion resolves to find help, while the rest of the Lion Guard stays behind to combat the fire.
Kion races across the Pride Lands to where Ma Tembo and her herd are still en route to another kingdom. He explains the situation to her, and she agrees to help the galagos, as she considers the other Pride Landers her family. The elephants arrive in Ndefu Grove, where they promptly put out the fire.
After the fire is put out, Laini thanks the elephants for their help and offers them a place in Ndefu Grove.
===="Beshte and the Beast"====
Beshte and Shujaa encounter Laini and her fellow galagos in a tree, where they are suspicious of a serval on the opposite branch. The serval admits to being stuck, and Beshte questions Shujaa as to what they should do. Shujaa suggests uprooting the tree, but Beshte urges him to think more closely about the problem.
This leads Shujaa to bend the branch of the tree down to the ground so the serval can clamber to safety. The plan works, until Shujaa lets go of the branch, catapulting Laini and the galagos into another tree.
===="Pride Landers Unite!"====
The Lion Guard concludes that the Pride Landers must unite against the threat of the Outlanders. They gather together Bupu's herd, Laini's group, Ma Tembo's herd, and Mbeya's crash ("Pride Landers Unite!").
At first, the Pride Landers are tense, but Kion works to defuse the tension. He instructs the animals to race toward Bunga. However, the event soon gets out of hand, for the animals trip over the galagos and end up in a heap. Kion then gets the idea to call Makuu the crocodile for help. Makuu begrudgingly agrees to help, but his training is too rigorous and ruthless for the other Pride Landers to master.
The Army of Scar besieges Makuu's float, with Kiburi targeting Makuu. Ono witnesses the battle and reports his findings to Kion. Together, the Lion Guard and their Pride Lander allies storm the watering hole and fight off the Army of Scar.
After the fight, Makuu thanks Laini and her group for help and vows to do the same for them should the need ever arise.
===="The Fall of Mizimu Grove"====
At Mizimu Grove, Rafiki and Simba announce Makini's mpando mpaya, and Timon and Pumbaa perform their song ("Tujiinue"). In the midst of the celebration, the Army of Scar attacks, and the Pride Landers rise up to defend themselves. The battle pauses when Scar appears in the flames and threatens to overtake the entirety of the Pride Lands. Frightened by Scar's unexpected appearance, the remaining Pride Landers, including Laini and her group, flee Mizimu Grove.
Simba approaches the Pride Landers once the Lion Guard has calmed them and admits that he has had knowledge of Scar's return for some time. The herds deliberate whether they should leave the Pride Lands, and Simba tells them to inform him of their decision the following morning at Pride Rock.
At Pride Rock, Kion implores Laini and her group to follow him to Mizimu Grove before they decide to leave the kingdom. The herds follow Kion to Pride Rock, where Makini's baobab tree seed has survived the fire. This inspires the Pride Landers to remain in the kingdom and work together to defeat Scar.
===="Battle for the Pride Lands"====
The galagos participate in the battle against Scar and his army.
===="Return to the Pride Lands"====
Laini rushes into the Lair of the Lion Guard, crying for help. However, she pauses when she realizes that both Kion's and Vitani's Lion Guards are present. She bids them to follow her to Mbali Fields, and both groups agree to the task.
Once at Mbali Fields, the Lion Guards find Thurston trapped in a hole. The two groups bicker over who should save him, but in the meantime, Azaad guides Thurston out of the hole himself. Laini looks on.
Later, during the Battle of the Lion Guards, Laini hides in a dark cave to test the Keenest of Sight. Both Anga and Tazama try to find her, with Tazama eventually locating her and bearing her out of the cave, thus winning the competition. Laini witnesses another competition between Bunga and Shabaha for the Bravest. Finally, Laini watches the final mashindano between Kion and Vitani, and marvels at the power of the Roar of the Elders, which Kion demonstrates by lifting Pride Rock.
