Madame, please take Isabelle home. There must be something I can do to help.

[Pom, Flora and Alexander screaming] YAAAHHHH! OOF! OOF! WHOA!
AAAAAAH!!!
AAAGH! NOOOO!!!! AAAHHHHH!!!!
Babar: No!
[Pom, Flora and Alexander screaming] AAAGH! AAAHHHHH!!!
Babar: We've got to save them!
Cornelius: The fire, the ambulance, the police!
Balloon Ride Operator: Wait! We can't do anything until the storm dies down.
Celeste: Cornelius.
Cornelius: Madame, please try to stay calm.
Celeste: Stay calm?!
Babar: Celeste.
Cornelius: Come on, Pompadour, Troubadour.
Celeste: Oh, Babar. They must be terrified.
They're only babies. We've got to do something.
Babar: We've going after them!
Balloon Ride Operator: No, your majesties, please! You don't understand.
Handyman: Hey, you, get away from there!
Cornelius: Up you go, Pompadour!
Pompadour: Are you sure you know what you're doing?
Handyman: You can't go up in this storm.
Cornelius: Stand aside, man!
This is a rescue mission.
Handyman: All right, All right. But you're crazy.
Pompadour: Cornelius, he says we've crazy!
There is an unknown place the birds speak of, deep in the jungle, a place far away where even the hunter would never find us. I suggest we leave for it immediately.
No! This is our home. We have to stay here.
EKElephant King
We all feel just as you do, Babar, but I'm afraid it's a question of survival.
You have a lot to learn, Babar. We're just no match for the hunter or any like him who come from the other side.
We all have much to learn. Perhaps in time, we may get to know the nature of our enemy and then be able to stand against him, but for now, Babar.
For now our only hope is to leave before it's too late, if he finds us now, he'll hunt us down to the last! [The gunshot is heard and the elephants panic. The hunter shots an elephant, Babar gasps and the elephants run in panic. Babar backs to the tree]
YCYoung Celeste
[as two elephants carry Celeste and Arthur] Run, Babar! Run!
He'll follow us! Hunt us down! All of us!
Babar! Babar! [Babar hears a gun click, gasps and sees a hunter come out through the bush. Babar screams and remembers his memories of his mother's final day]
Babar, my boy, I knew you'd come back! I kept telling everyone "That Babar's just too clever for the hunter!"
Only about two thousand times… but even so, I must say it’s a relief and a pleasure to see you again, Babar.
Well, taking everything that's happened into consideration, lucky to be alive. I dare say better than you. What happened? You're all green.
Oh, this? It's a suit. [takes off his jacket and holds it] See? It comes off.
[gasps] My tusks! You can shed your skin, like a snake!
Yeah, clothes are like skins you can change, and some of them itch like the Dickens.
Hmmm, they are rather attractive.
YCYoung Celeste
And we brought back all sorts of gifts, Mother, powder and perfume.
And creampuffs. [Pompadour comes to Babar's car, sniffs a tire and holds a gramophone's horn. As he does so, it plays music, causing him and the other elephants to scream and trumpet]
[laughs] That's a gramophone. Oh, I have so much to tell you and I'm so happy to have found you all safe and sound.
That's a matter of opinion.
We kept moving, at thinking we would find sanctuary, but now we’ve realized that no where was safe from the relentless hunter.
OKOld King
Not even this miserable place.
OKOld King
You left when this trouble all started, Babar. It is good that you have returned, as we are about to put an end to it. Tomorrow we’ll stand and fight just as elephants should.
How were things going, Babar?
Rome wasn't built in a day, you know.
Yeah, but they didn't have the monsoons to worry about.
All I'm asking is that you slow down, take a break and play with your friends. [After Celeste and Arthur come along] It will do you a world of good.
I'm sorry, Madame, but I've got no time to play. It's going to rain.
Well, I'll play around of Monkey in the Middle with you. I'm afraid Babar is much too busy with his city.
And I'm afraid, at this pace, it's not going to be much of a city after all. Not what it could have been, anyway.
[The scene fades to Madame, Celeste and Arthur playing Monkey in the Middle with the ball. Celeste and Arthur laugh, giggle and catch the ball which Celeste throws high]
I'll get it! [he runs and looks for a ball and finds it behind the bush, but gasps when he hears a snake]
Arthur, look out! [the snake bites her arm off screen] Ah! Oh!
Celeste! Celeste! [Celeste runs] Is she right, Celeste?
YCYoung Celeste
That was a poisonous snake, Arthur. Run and get help right away.
[Arthur runs and Celeste tearfully pants and pats her trunk on Madame before the screen fades into black]
[Celeste and Arthur found Babar]
YCYoung Celeste
Babar, you're safe!
[looks worried] Babar, I'm scared.
[to Arthur] Cheer up. We'll beat this thing.
[A tree (which is on fire) falls toward Babar, Celeste and Arthur. Cornelius pushes the children out of the way before the tree crashes into them]
Believe it or not, Babar. We're holding it back. Keeping it at bay.
How long can we keep out?
For a while if the winds don't shift. [scratches his head] Everyone's tiring.
KMKing Marabou
Somebody... [coughs] ...do something!
KCKing Crocodile
[running through the jungle fire] Help us! Save our water ways!
Why don't you help us save our homes?
Oh, no. Here come the others.
[The other animals runs toward Babar and Cornelius and ask them to save their homes]
EVERYBODY, JUST HOLD IT!!
[off-screen] Sire, sire! [on-screen when his clothes got ruined and burned] It's no use! The wind is shifting! The fire's out of control!
Now we can't even help ourselves.
[off-screen] Is that so? [on-screen when he and his rhino army arrived] Well, what happened to your idea of "Working together for a better jungle"? [Everyone looked at Rataxes] What about it?
Okay, All we all in this together?
Are we all gonna save this jungle?
AAnimals
Yeah! All right!
[Babar, Cornelius, Pompadour and the animals went to stop a jungle fire. Rataxes and the rhino army followed them as they all hold shovels]
I think I'm hungry. Let's get something to eat. My Treat. [Scene Transitions to the Pizza Parlor] Hello. Can we have some service, please?
Nothing [Walks towards Celeste] Come on Celeste.
YCYoung Celeste
Babar! I thought you were hungry.
YCYoung Celeste
Yes, he is cute. Hello there baby.
[Baby turns around, only to be revealed as Troubadour in disguise, he then closes the crib]
YCYoung Celeste
Wait a minute. I think I know that woman. [They trip over a bowl of fruit]
My Tusks, this is unfortunate.
YCYoung Celeste
Ah-ha! I thought so. All right, What's going on?
We aren't at liberty to explain!
We have strict orders from King Babar to remain out of sight.
YCYoung Celeste
Babar, I thought you told them to leave us alone
I did... at first, then they kinda insisted on coming along. You see, there was this poster of me with the...
YCYoung Celeste
I don't care! Obviously you don't think we can have fun without them tagging along! I'm going home.
No, Celeste, wait! Wait, let me apologize!
[Cornelius, Pompadour and Troubadour follow]
[turns to Cornelius, Pompadour and Troubadour] Where do you think you're going?
Oh, no you're not. Celeste is mad enough already! I've gotta straighten this out with her. Alone.
But, sire! Your life is in danger.
CPCornelius and Pompadour
Somebody is out to get you!
[sighs] Oh look! A flock of turtles!
CPCornelius and Pompadour
Where?
[Young Babar zips out]

[Door slams]
Young Babar: Why are you guys doing this to me? If i don't patch things up with Celeste soon, she'll never forgive me.
Cornelius: We have to keep an eye on you or this king-napper fellow might--
Young Babar: What King-Napper Fellow?
Has anyone actually seen this guy?
Cornelius: Not as yet.
Pompadour: In any case, we've set numerous traps around the palace.
Cornelius: Nothing can get in nor out of the palace without our knowing it.
[Young Babar sighs]
[Alarm rings]
[Young Babar screams] Ahh!
Pompadour: The alarm! We've caught the King-Napper!
Zephir: I give, i give!
Young Arthur: Gee, Babar, if this is the way you greet your friends, i'd hate to be your enemy.
Young Babar: This is all their fault.
Let me cut you down and i'll explain.
So you can see my problem.
If i don't get away from here soon, Celeste will never speak to me again.
Young Arthur: Don't give up, Babar.
Zephir: Let's see if we have all the facts.
Babar has to smooth things over with Celeste or they'll be kaput, right?
[Young Babar and Arthur] Right.
Zephir: Babar can't un-glue himself from Cornelius and Pompadour because they think someone is out to King-Nap him, right?
[Young Babar and Arthur] Right.
Zephir: Then the answer is simple.
We'll King-Nap Babar ourselves.
[Young Babar and Arthur] Right.
Young Babar: What?!
Zephir: It will be easy. Here's the plan.
