Back at the Pride Lands, Shenzi, Banzai and Ed watched as Donnie made funny faces at them from inside the ComVee.
"Man, I hate this kid." said Banzai.
"Yeah, no fooling'." agreed Shenzi.
Ed, on the other hand, laughed at what he saw coming from Donnie.
"It's not that funny, Ed." said Banzai.
But when Donnie put his shorts down, Ed laughed like crazy.
"Oh, that boy has sho' gone crazy!" exclaimed Shenzi, who covered her eyes.
"Hey, shut up!" Banzai said to Ed, who just kept laughing, which irritated him.
As Banzai tackled Ed outside, Debbie pulled Donnie's shorts back up, saying. "Way to amuse them, wild boy."
But when she heard Mom say...
"Jomo hasn't seen Eliza anywhere."
...she hurried to the table and flipped open one of her magazines when Dad ask, "Deborah, you wouldn't happen to know where Eliza is, do you?"
Debbie looked over her magazine, which she looked at again, saying. "Don't look at me. I'm not my sister's keeper."
Already getting impatient, Mom snatched away the magazine, demanding. "Debbie Thornberry, you better tell us what's going on right now, how Eliza knows about the drought, why most of the animals have gone away, everything."
As she looked at her and Dad, Debbie knew there was no other choice.
With a sigh, she said. "I know she's not gonna be happy about this, but...the truth is...Eliza can talk to..."
But before she could get to the point, my voice came out of the radio. "Hello? Hello? Is anybody there?"
"Whew. Saved by the radio." Debbie said with relief.
"Oh, Eliza. Thank goodness." Mom said through the microphone. "You really had us worried."
"I'm sorry, Mom." I said. "But the good news is I found the real Lion King."
"Smashing work, poppet." exclaimed Dad.
Outside the ComVee, the hyenas were shocked with what they heard.
"She actually did it!" exclaimed Banzai.
"Well, if that twerp wants to get to Scar," Shenzi said as she, Banzai and Ed left the ComVee. "She's gonna have to get through us."
