Chapter 179: Madagascar Jr. begins
Oscar appears onstage as he welcomes everyone to the production of Madagascar Jr., he then explains the rules for audiences before thanking everyone and told them to enjoy the show, which caused everyone to cheers as the play begins. Lincoln as Alex the lion, Peter as Marty the zebra, Tessie as Gloria the hippo, and Greg as Melman the Giraffe then sang "Showtime" until it ends with Marty's birthday party, where Marty himself wished that he could go to the wild. Soon after talking to Alex, Marty starts to think for a moment before deciding to the wild himself, which caused his friends to go after him until they reached Grand Central Station. After singing "Grand Central", the quartet got taken to a ship, which the Penguins (four of Cadet 1a's peers as Skipper, Kowalski, Rico, and Private respectively) took over so they can go back to Antarctica. The quartet then fell overboard and floated away until they reunite on an island, causing Alex to blame Marty for getting them stranded. Suddenly, the quartet heard noises and follow it until they meet the lemurs (with Oscar, Ralph, and Adelaide as King Julien, Maurice, and Mort respectively) before joining their dance party as they sang "I like to move it move it" which ends Act 1.
After a cadet told everyone that there will be a five-minute intermission, Kouna and her mom then makes excited noises and began rocking as everyone begins to talk among themselves until Cleo look around and asks her comrades if they see Class A115, causing them to get worried and told the twins that Class A115 are nowhere to be seen, which also caused a montage to begin as the Peanut Gallery look around for Class A115 until the intermission is over. Hisashi then think for a second before speculating that Class A115 might be working backstage.
Act 2 then begins with Alex, Marty, Gloria, and Melman outside as they prepare to go to sleep, which caused Alex to start singing "Steak" before the scene changes to the penguins singing a reprise of "Sea Shanty". The next day, the lemurs threw the quartet a feast to make them feel like they are in heaven. However, Alex's instinct kicks in and caused him to bite Marty on the butt. He then tries to explain until Maurice told everyone that Alex cannot stay with him because he's a hunting and eating machine that eats steak, causing everyone to react in disbelief until Alex frightened everyone by going savage. After Alex went to the fossa side of the island to isolate himself, Marty went off to go find him, while Gloria and Melman was greeted by the penguins, which caused the Fossas to find him edible. Soon, Marty reunites with Alex and try to get him to snap out of his depression until the fossas arrives, causing Gloria, Melman, and the penguins to come to his rescue until Alex came. He then has his friends help him put on a show that scared the fossas before calling himself the king of Madagascar, causing the lemurs to cheer as everyone decided to celebrate with a feast for the quartet's bravery before singing the finale, which is called "Together Forever". The play then ends afterwards.
