Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa Page #6
I'm in charge now.
Thanks to Alakay, the dancing lion.
Please Makunga this is the only water on the reserve.
If you're thirsty you'll have to look for water off the reserve.
I left the reserve and survived.
I could do something about this.
Looks like a clogged pipe. But we get in New York all the time.
I'll just travel up river.
Up river?
Off the reserve?
You?
Yeah me. I'll unclog the pipe and bring back your water.
Great I'll help you pack but by the looks of that hat I see you're all set.
Yeah fine. Go ahead laugh. Laugh your mane off.
May be you should try a little rain dance.
Zuba would know what to do.
Where is Zuba? You don't care about us.
Zuba should be in charge, not you.
Alright, fine. As an added measure, I will consult with Zuba.
Marty?
Marty?
Is Marty here?
Marty, I apologize to you.
I did wrong.
I'm sorry. I overlooked your problems.
At that moment I realized that I was wrong, actually.
What kind of a friend does that make me?
Well I just want you to know that...
...you're one in a million.
Isn't this touching?
This is touching.
So could you please turn around so I can tell you that to your face?
That's right. Got you.
I see you in there. Yeah yeah you.
That's right you, right there.
Twelfth row, two hundred and third from the left.
I see you Marty.
I know it's you.
You know what makes you special?
These guys...
They're white with black stripes.
You're black with white stripes.
You're a dreamer Marty. Always have been.
You have a great taste in music and
horrible taste in friends.
Not Melman and Gloria, me.
OK. I'm in.
No Marty. You can't come with me.
I don't believe you have a choice.
Any water?
No, just more diamonds and gold.
OK. Don't give up hope.
Listen up. I'll help you.
There is only one way to get your precious water.
I, your beloved King Julien, must simply make a small sacrifice
to my good friends, water gods.
In the volcano.
What does that do?
What does that do?
Excellent question.
My sacrifice goes into volcano.
Then the friendly gods eat up my sacrifice.
Mmm.. Very nice. Thank you for the sacrifice.
Please have another sacrifice.
No, I've had enough for the day.
Listen, I'm gonna be very unsettled unless you will have another...
I don't want another sacrifice, OK?
Look at you, you look skinny.
No, I think I've had enough, is that clear?
The gods eat the sacrifice, they are grateful, they give me some of their water.
Then I give it to you.
What?
Does it work?
No. I mean yes.
Well, Maurice?
Yeah, it's fifty fifty.
Excellent.
Now, all I need is someone who'd like to go in the volcano
and get eaten by gods.
Any hands? Hands? Anybody?
OK. I need someone, perhaps who has never fall in love.
Who could look death, straight in the eye ball.
A real genuine hero.
I'll do it.
Melman?
Hurry up. Before you all come to your senses.
Melman, what is wrong with you?
I'm dying anyways.
If there is a chance, it'll get you water, it'll be worthy.
Are you nuts?
Gloria, I just want you to know, back at the zoo,
it was never the doctors or the prescriptions that kept me going...
...it was always you. Seeing you every day.
That's what kept me going.
Melman, wait.
You gonna mop around like this all day?
Don't hmph me. Listen Zuba. A miracle happened.
Our son has come back to us.
How come, that is not good enough for you?
What are you saying woman?
We've lost him once Zuba.
Let's not lose him again.
Zuba!
Zuba.
Get out of here.
What do you want Makunga?
It's awful. The watering hole is dried up.
Dried up?
That's impossible.
There is nothing left.
Well, you are the alpha lion Makunga.
What are you gonna do about it?
Your son, Alakay. He said he could fix it.
He has gone up river.
Off the reserve?
No!
I tried to stop him.
I told him it was suicide but he was determined to prove himself to you.
You stay here in case he comes back.
Hurry Zuba.
I'm so parched.
Is this place, aren't affright you out?
We'll slip in, find the problem.
Hunters'll never know we were here.
Why are "we" doing this?
Look, Marty maybe my dad'll think that I'm...
I just wanna show him, I'm a real lion.
As opposed to a chocolate lion.
I know this might sound hard to believe,
but apparently lions don't dance.
What?
As far as my dad's concerned.
As far as the people is concerned, you're a huge hit.
That was New York. This is Africa.
It's a much tougher crowd.
Marty, Marty.
This's it.
This is the clog.
Come on.
Here's the water.
Marty, stay down.
Look at that.
It's her.
Is this right?
Oh, very good.
We need dynamite, do you have any dynamite?
Oh, snap, I just used my last...
Alex!
Run Marty.
Come on, I can't leave you here.
Go, get help.
OK. OK. OK...
OK. Here we go. OK...
Here we go. Here we go.
What is all the hoop about?
Joe?
Joe, the witch doctor? We thought you were dead.
So did I. Then I realized, I'm covered in brown spots.
So, Melman's not dying.
Melman's not dying.
Excuse me, excuse me.
Melman!
Move out. Don't do this.
Julien, stop this. This's crazy!
Oh, certainly throwing a giraffe into a volcano to make water is crazy.
Yes!
Please, Melman stop.
Gloria?
You can't do this.
Why not?
Because I...
You can't do this Melman.
First of all, it hurts.
Second of all, I'll only have eighteen hours to live anyway.
Melman, I gotto know.
Did you really mean all those things you said about me?
Of course I did.
This is crazy.
It is?
It's crazy in the thing, I had to go half way around the world...
...to find out that the perfect guy for me...
...lived right next door.
Then I guess it's you and me neighbor...
...you and me for the next eighteen hours.
I'll take whatever you got.
Maurice, what just happened?
I believe the fat lady has sobbed.
Hey, what's going on here?
Marty.
Hey, listen up. Alex is in big trouble. We get to get up the river fast.
What about the plane?
Perfect. Come on.
The plane won't be fixed until the suits meet our demands.
Maternity leave?
You're males.
Look, we need a plane for rescue mission.
Well, there is nothing I can do until we bust up this union.
I'm gonna get the busty not bully you if you don't get this plane going.
Can't you see these commies have my hands tied here?
No maternity leave.
Maybe a certain someone wouldn't want these blowing around on the savannah.
Alright, you get your maternity leave.
Finally.
Where are you headed?
What's going on? Where are we going?
Oh no, please. You are not gonna burn me there.
