We should talk.

Whoa!

Stop it! No means no!

Or in your language...

Not everything

is solved that way, you know.

Sonya? Are you listening to me?

Now l'm getting

the silent treatment, am l?

Come over here, right now!

Don't shut me out, baby!

What is wrong with you? Speak!

OK... if these are your feelings,

l understand now.

And l'm going!

lt's obvious l'm just an emotional

whoopee cushion for you to sit on!

When you look for where l am,

l won't be there!

Come, everybody.

We have show to do.

But how do l go on without Marty?

- Stefano.

- l don't know what to do.

You can still do cannon solo.

But... l want to do solo act with Marty!

And what do l do?

Go back to sitting

and standing and rolling over?

No.

We can do impossible!

And we never go back

to way we used to be.

The way it used to be

isn't the way it was.

And it won't be the same without them,

whatever way it is.

Well... we're here.

Home.

My rock looks smaller

than l remember it.

Look at the mural.

Doesn't actually capture

the real thing, does it?

Wow.

l forgot about that wall

in between us, Melman.

Was that always there?

Guys, l'm sorry

l ever left the zoo in the first place.

What do you mean?

l mean, if l had just stayed put,

we wouldn't have

anything to be sad about right now.

Leaving the zoo was the best thing

that ever happened to us.

Really?

Yeah. Out there, in the world,

we were really living.

- Yeah!

- lt was exciting!

- lt was romantic.

- lt was dangerous.

l never felt so alive!

When we were with the circus,

we were already home.

l only wish we'd realized that sooner.

l'm really going to miss those guys.

What do you say we go back?

Really?

- l'm with you!

- l'm in!

But what do we tell them?

We make it right by telling them

how wrong we were.

lt's worth a shot.

And if we go down in flames, so be it!

- Yes, let's do this!

- l like it!

Yeah, yeah!

ls my neck getting longer?

Feel my fur. lt's so soft.

lt is soft.

l'm like a candy cane

in a black and white movie.

Oh, no.

Dubois.

Sonya, l miss you, baby!

l miss my stinky bear!

Babe... your fishy kisses!

Surprise!

He will never fit in the carry-on.

But his head will!

- Hey!

- Qu'est-ce que c'est?

Look! Look what she's done!

You brought back Alex the lion!

- lt's a miracle!

- Thank you! Thank you!

Sonya, where are you?

Sonya!

Excuse me.

Sonya, baby!

l don't want to be king anymore!

l was so hung up on who l was...

...who you was...

what you smelled like...

...when all that really matters

is what we smell like together.

l know!

Baby, forgive me.

Oh, hello?

Gasp! lt's Dubois!

Baba booey!

Where did you get this?

l got it from the zoo.

The hippies got ambushed!

What? We have to help them!

But they lied to us!

Yeah. Why should we lift a paw?

They are our friends!

They're not even circus!

That's Bolshevik!

l never thought l'd say this

on American soil, but the Russki's right!

Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex!

Oh, no.

Alex?

Where are you?

Gloria! Are you OK?

- What is happening?

- Alex!

- No, no! No, no!

- Alex the lion!

No!

Thank you. Thank you all for coming

to this special celebration.

And now, the woman

who made this all possible,

who brought Alex the lion

and a couple of...

...three?

Three other animals back to New York.

And she's French.

Please welcome Chantal Dubois!

Alex?

lt was never about the money.

lt was about...

...the lion.

- Gia?

- Circus stick together.

Da-da da-da-da-da-da-da, circus

Da-da da-da-da-da-da-da, Afro

Circus Afro, Circus Afro

Polka dot, polka dot!

Look! A flying circus!

No!

Operation Afro-Circus Rescue... engage!

Aye, aye, Skipper!

Unleash the seal.

- l am a sea lion!

- Whatever.

Two tons of fun. Dive, dive, dive!

Let's rock.

You and me, baby!

Wow!

Suck in that gut!

l am impressed!

Mission accomplished.

Now let's get out of here!

- Wait! Wait for me!

- Stefano!

Don't leave without me!

Oh, no!

Go, Stefano!

Climb!

Come on, my friend!

Stefano!

Help me!

l will have your head!

Oh, no! Help me!

Alex!

Marty! Shoot me a line.

You got it. Afro, don't fail me now!

What are you doing?

We are doing trapeze americano.

Let's do it!

- Frankie, Jonesy! Be ready!

- You got it, boss!

Go, go, go!

Gia! Take Stefano!

Alex!

Aquatic cobras!

lf l am going down,

your head is coming with me!

l don't think so!

Oi, let's go!

You're going down,

but not with my head.

Jet pack! He pull up!

Your days of chasing animals

are over, Dubois!

Because you've just messed

with the king!

This is where animals like you belong!

Now sit!

Lie down.

Naughty me.

Roll over.

Good, Dubois.

Now stay!

We did it!

Balloons to the children of the world!

Trapeze americano!

- lt is real.

- lt's real!

That's how you do it!

So you want to run away with the circus?

- Live a life of adventure?

- Full of romance?

- And danger!

- Really living!

What do you say?

Ra-da-da da-da-da-da-da-da, circus!

Da-da da-da-da-da-da-da, Afro!

Circus Afro, Circus Afro!

Polka dot, polka dot, polka dot, Afro!

l like to move it, move it

l like to move it, move it

l like to move it, move it

You like to...

Move it!

Skipper, what did you end up doing

with the crazy lady, anyway?
