(At the Pride Lands, three hyenas are on the hunt, preying and spying on Simba and Nala on the rock while the leader set up a plan to hunt them down)
*Shenzi: There it is boys. The Lion King is sleeping with his mate on the lazy rocks.
*Banzai: The offspring of Mufasa. We got a hunting favor for you.
*Ed: *laugh*
*Shenzi: *hit Ed* Oh for crying out loud, we're gonna take a mane off of your chest.
*Banzai: Let's see what the lion is made out of.
*Ed: *giggle*
*Simba: *with Nala on the rocks* Does it feel great to relax on those rocks Nala?
*Nala: Sure is Simba. Living out on a happy life in the savanna.
*Simba: Can you feel the love tonight? *see the hyenas on the grass* Huh?
*Nala: Look out!
(The hyenas pop out of the grass with Simba charging at the hyenas with Nala joining in to fight the hyenas as a encounter strike occur between the groups)
*Simba: Shenzi...
*Shenzi: Hello Simba. It is great to see you again since the Battle of Pride Rock.
*Nala: You were suppose to be dead.
*Banzai: Eh. The fire isn't strong enough to roast us all like chicken wings.
*Ed: *laugh*
*Shenzi: *hit Ed* Shut, up! He's making fun of us.
*Simba: I'm asking you to get out of the Pride Lands. Aren't you suppose to be at the Outlands?
*Shenzi: No. But we're here to prey on you.
*Simba: Back off, predator.
*Banzai: Don't even say a word to our leader of the pack.
*Nala: You heard him.
*Ed: Uh?
*Simba: *get up with Nala* Let's do something new other than fighting.
*Nala: Hit it Simba.
*Simba: *play the radio's music and dance with Nala* Oh yeah!
*Shenzi: *she and the hyenas annoyed* Huh?
*Banzai: What the what?
*Ed: *laugh*
*Nala: *dance with Simba* I'm feeling the lines.
*Simba: *spin and dance by side with Nala* Oh yeah. Dancing for the Pride Lands.
*Timon: *show up with Pumbaa* Oh! What a surprise! It's Simba and Nala dancing in front of the hyenas.
*Pumbaa: Who could do a dance-off like that?
*Timon: Couldn't have said it myself.
*Pumbaa: I wonder how the hyenas got to say about this dancing moment.
*Banzai: Man. I'm feeling so dizzy.
*Shenzi: No more running around and let's get that head off the lion!
*Simba: *press knuckles and walk up to the hyenas* Get out of here and go to the Outlands where you belong!
*Shenzi: *she and her trio run off* Run away!
*Banzai: We'll be back!
*Ed: *laugh maniacally*
*Nala: What a show-off.
*Simba: What a way to scare off the hyenas.
*Nala: High five! *high five on Simba*
*Simba: *stand down with Nala* For the Pride Lands.
*Timon: Wow! How amazing you are, Simba.
*Simba: Timon and Pumbaa. I didn't see you there.
*Pumbaa: We just wanted to check on you.
*Simba: Hey, weren't you sneaking on us while facing the hyenas?
*Timon: We were about to see you until we were distracted by the hyenas.
*Pumbaa: They aren't letting go of themselves if it weren't for a zebra sandwich.
*Simba: No more hyenas to deal with and let's go home and have some lunch.
*Nala: I'm feeling a bit of Hakuna Matata around here.
*Timon: What a relief. We will be eating grubs, doing a snail-slurping contest and digga tunnah.
*Pumbaa: Oh, what a surprise!
*Simba: Never more the hyenas come.
(Simba, Nala, Timon and Pumbaa head home to Pride Rock after dancing in front of the hyenas at the end of the day)
THE END
==Trivia==
*The short is a pun of the movie The Lion King.
*The short is based on the Alpenliebe Creamfills Lion commercial where it shows a hunter on the savanna, encountering lions as the lions play the radio's music to dance before scaring off the hunter.
*Despite Shenzi, Banzai and Ed being shown alive while Simba is the king of the Pride Lands in his reign, the short is only a parody and is not canon within the Lion King mainline continuity.
