>> lions are so-- lioney. >> socks: it is not! >> beaverton: socks, everybody knows that my tail is better than your tail. my tail is best. >> beaverton: when i take a bath, i can slap my flat tail on the water and it makes a great

sound like this. now, your tail is so thin and curly, there's no way you can go-- >> socks: but my curly tail can curl around branches to help me climb trees and get the bananas. my tail is much more useful than a tail that just goes--

>> both: what do you think, lionel? >> lionel: i think that arguing about which tail is best is silly. your tail is best for you and your tail is best for you. so why don't you shake hands, be friends, and get along with each

other? go on. (grumbling) great! now, go climb a tree. you have a swim. >> socks: climbing trees is much better than swimming. >> beaverton: no, it's not!

>> socks: yes, it is! >> i hope they don't argue all day. (humming) >> if i were a real moose, these would grow into big antlers one >> socks: you don't have to get wet to climb a tree. >> beaverton: getting wet is

fun. >> socks: climbing trees is fun. >> listening to friends arguing is not fun! it's not fun at all! i'm going into the playroom until you two stop all this silly arguing! >> there, you see?

now you've upset elliot! >> beaverton: me? you've upset him! >> socks: uh-uh, no, i didn't! >> beaverton: yes, you did! >> socks: no, i didn't! >> socks: didn't! >> beaverton: yes, you did, did, did, did, did, did!

>> elliot: oh, i hope they don't argue all day. hi, lionel. >> lionel: hello, elliot. is something wrong? >> elliot: i wish socks and beaverton would stop arguing! >> lionel: i think they enjoy arguing.

i guess they don't know it upsets everybody else. >> maybe we should show them! we could pretend to argue just like they do! >> yes. that might work, as long as it's only pretend, of course. >> beaverton: oh, yeah?

well, i can build a dam faster than you can climb a tree! >> socks: well, i can climb a tree faster than you can swim a lake! >> elliot: lionel, come on! a moose is best because it has antlers! >> lionel: not so!

lions are best because they have a beautiful mane! >> elliot: lions should go to the barber! >> socks: huh? >> lionel: deer have antlers, elk have antlers, but only a lion has a mane. >> it should be called a lion's

mop. >> beaverton: merciful maple chips! let's go outside for some peace and quiet. >> socks: good idea! i'm right behind you. >> elliot: yes! (laughing)

yes. >> lionel: i think our plan is working. >> elliot: good. let's go give them some more. after you. >> lionel: no, no, no. >> elliot: thank you. >> socks: no!

>> lionel: i can run faster. >> elliot: a moose has longer legs. >> oh, wallowing walnuts! there they go again! >> elliot: -- lion-- >> socks: elliot, lionel, please stop arguing all the time! >> beaverton: isn't there

anything we can do to help you shake hands, be friends, and get along with each other? >> lionel: well, we promise to stop arguing-- >> elliot: if you promise to stop arguing. us? we don't argue.

>> beaverton: no. do we? >> both: we do. we're sorry. >> socks: from now on, we'll get along without arguing. >> beaverton: if you get along without arguing. >> elliot: friends.

>> how about that, elliot? our plan worked. >> amazing! >> all: yay! hooray! >> i meant to do that. ♪ >> socks: what if he's asleep? >> elliot: then he'll wake up.

>> but he hates being disturbed. you jump out and i'll take the picture. >> you don't know how to use this camera yet. >> oh, yeah. okay. here i go. one, two, three.

yoo-hoo, king lionel! smile. >> elliot: surprise! >> socks: where is he? >> he never takes his crown off. strange. >> socks: very strange. >> unusual. >> socks: very unusual.

>> weird. >> socks: very weird. look! paw prints. >> let's follow them! he can't be far away. >> socks: there he is. what does that sign say? >> elliot: "do not disturb."

>> socks: oh, well. maybe we should visit another time. he hates being disturbed. >> elliot: socks. come on. i have to get that picture. uh, excuse me. king lionel?

>> huh? not "king lionel," just plain lionel. >> sorry to bother you, but i need to get a picture of you on your throne. would that be okay? i mean, you are king of the beasts.

>> not anymore. i've retired. someone else can be king of the jungle. >> but-- but-- >> sorry, like the sign says, do not disturb. >> elliot: i promised the magazine i'd get a picture of

king lionel on his throne. >> socks: what did his sign say again? >> do not disturb. >> well, i guess there's only one thing we can do. >> what? >> disturb him. (snoring)

(trumpeting) who dares disturb king--? uh-- uh-- just plain lionel. >> i do. announcing her royal majesty, new ruler of the jungle, and keeper of the royal banana bread, queen socks. >> thank you, thank you.

who is this? >> i'm-- >> elliot: he's just plain lionel, your queenness. >> socks: well, just plain lionel, i have made some new laws in the jungle. >> you have? like what?

>> new law number one, no retired lion may drink pineapple juice by the lake. >> from now on, all retired lions must eat bananas, like those ones. >> lionel: but i can't climb vines like you can. >> you'll think of something.

>> i'm going to sit down. >> new law number two. it is unhealthy for retired lions to sit in the sun by a lake. >> lionel: what? i can't sit? then i'm going for a swim. >> socks: new law number three.

retired lions cannot swim in the >> why not? >> because of the hippos. >> there aren't any hippos in this lake. >> you should have listened to queen socks. i'm going back to the royal throne.

>> queen socks is not very nice to retired lions. >> i know, but you can change that. >> i can? >> elliot: sure. (whispering) >> what is it? >> o queen of the jungle, i have

a teeny-tiny favour to ask of you. may i please have my crown and throne back? just for a minute? there's something i forgot to do when i was king. >> socks: well-- >> please?

>> socks: well... >> pretty please with-- uh-- bananas on top? >> oh, okay. i crown you king lionel, for a minute. >> i like being king. i declare that i will be king of the jungle again.

>> elliot: hooray! hold it. a picture will make it official. >> lionel: excellent picture, elliot. >> elliot: thank you, king >> lionel: socks, if it hadn't been for you, i never would have been king again.

>> socks: thank you, king lionel, but you should also thank elliot moose, jungle photographer. >> elliot: well, professor paisley, are we on the right island? >> if we want to be on pongolongo island, yes.

>> socks: that's a funny name for an island. why is it called that? >> because this is where the giant pongolongo is supposed to live. >> oh! the giant pongolongo lives here! what's a giant pongolongo?

>> paisley: according to my book of scary animals, the giant pongolongo is a huge animal that lives on this island. it always scares away anyone who comes here. they're so scared, they never come back! >> if it's so scary, then why

are we here? >> because i want to find out if there really is a giant pongolongo. >> and if there is, well, the first picture of the giant pongolongo will be taken by elliot moose, jungle >> all i can say is the giant

pongolongo better not try to scare me. i'll scare it instead. (thudding) (gasping) >> let's have some juice. >> good idea, professor. >> i'm going to climb up and see if i can see the giant

pongolongo from the trees. >> we're just making ourselves scared over nothing. >> i know. we're frightened of every sound we hear. there's probably no such thing as a giant pongolongo. >> socks: elliot!

professor paisley! >> what is it, socks? >> do you see something? >> socks: a giant footprint! >> paisley: you do? >> elliot: where? >> socks: you're standing in it! >> elliot: now i know why it's called the giant pongolongo.

it's huge! >> socks: really huge! >> elliot: what does it eat? >> that could be important. i'll look it up. it says the giant pongolongo likes to eat bananas. >> socks: bananas? >> that's right.

>> socks: oh, no! i left mine back at the boat. i'll be right back. >> be careful, socks. >> socks: don't worry. >> let's follow these footprints. >> i'll be right behind you. >> elliot, look!

>> elliot: the cave of the giant i'd better get a picture. (thumping) do you hear what i hear? >> what did it sound like to you? >> oh, maybe socks playing the drums or far-away thunder. >> or the footsteps of the giant

pongolongo? pongolongo! >> maybe i'll get this picture later. socks! >> paisley: socks, it's coming! the giant pongolongo's coming! socks, hurry! >> elliot: socks, where are you?

>> paisley: look at these footprints! they go off into the jungle! >> the giant pongolongo has captured socks. i have to get her back. >> paisley: b-- b-- but it's a m-- monster! >> i don't care.

she's my best friend! giant pongolongo, you come out here. where's my friend socks? >> socks: right here. (growling) what do you think of my monster? >> elliot: amazing! >> socks: whoa-oa-oa!

(crashing) i meant to do that. >> elliot: we thought you were the giant pongolongo. >> socks: no, i wanted to scare the giant pongolongo so it wouldn't scare you. then you could get your picture and professor paisley could

prove there really was a giant >> paisley: but you scared us instead. >> socks: i was trying to get close enough to tell you, but you kept running away. >> we thought you were chasing us. i guess we were wrong.

>> you weren't the giant you were the "giant wrongolongo." >> elliot: hey! who wants to play hide-and-seek? >> paisley: no way. we played that yesterday and it took us all afternoon just to find socks.

oh, where did she go? (giggling) >> socks: surprise! i guess i'm just a good hider. (lionel hemming) >> lionel: hear ye, hear ye! i, lionel lion, announce that today is playroom art gallery we will be turning the playroom

into an art gallery. all of those who wish to have a painting on display, please show them to me in one hour. >> all: hooray! >> elliot: i know! let's go into the yard and paint some pictures for the art gallery.

>> socks: and i know how we can look like real artists. >> elliot: you do? how can we do that, socks? >> socks: with berets. there's one for each of us. >> paisley: oh, that's nice. >> socks: aha! >> i'm ready to paint my

masterpiece. >> me, too. >> me, three. >> elliot: let's go! >> for my first painting, i'm going to paint a banana tree. what are you going to paint, paisley? >> i think i'm going to paint a

cow, and a house with a pig, and a chicken just like these ones how about you, elliot? >> i don't know yet. my masterpiece will be a surprise. ah. can i see your painting, socks? >> socks: sure.

i call it "my favourite tree in the world." do you think it's good enough for the playroom gallery? it looks just like a banana tree! you could be a famous artist for sure one day! >> i wish it was a real banana

tree. all this painting is making me hungry! >> elliot: can i see yours, >> paisley: here it is. it's called "old macdonald's farm." do you like it? >> elliot: i love it, paisley!

it looks just like a farm! >> socks: and that's a really good cow, paisley! >> thank you. >> socks: can we see yours, elliot? >> elliot: um-- well, not yet. you can't see it until it's finished.

>> paisley: come on. just one look? >> later. i haven't even really started yet. >> socks: okay. i can't wait to see it! >> paisley: me, too! >> elliot: oh.

my painting looks so different from their paintings. i just know lionel will never hang mine in the playroom >> lionel: all right, everyone. time to show your paintings. >> socks: here's mine, lionel. >> lionel: wonderful! this is excellent, socks!

i can't wait to put it up on the playroom wall. >> paisley: lionel, here's mine. "old macdonald's farm." >> lionel: marvellous, paisley! i can see a moo-moo here, an oink-oink there-- >> all: ♪ here an oink, there an oink, everywhere an oink-oink ♪

♪ old macdonald had a farm ♪ >> lionel: elliot? have you got a painting to show me for the playroom gallery? >> elliot: uh, not really. >> lionel: why not? >> elliot: my painting isn't very good. >> lionel: you're just giving

up? that doesn't sound like the moose i know. why don't you let me have a look? >> elliot: i don't paint the same way socks and paisley do. no one will like my painting. >> lionel: just let me have a

look. (socks oohing) i see what you mean. very different from socks and paisley. >> elliot: i told you. >> lionel: this painting is beautiful! wonderful!

amazing! it is totally original! you are a very talented artist. >> socks: a very, very talented artist. >> i wish i could paint like >> elliot: you think my painting is good? >> absolutely.

>> paisley: positively. >> socks: absoposolutely! >> but my painting doesn't look anything like socks's or paisley's. it doesn't look like anything at all! >> just because your painting is different, doesn't mean it isn't

just as beautiful as the others. >> really? >> sometimes the things that make something different are the same things that make it special. >> elliot: so my painting is good enough for the playroom gallery?

>> yes, in fact, i think these paintings are all masterpieces, and i'm going to hang them all up in the playroom for everyone to admire. yay! >> elliot: remember, friends like friends for who they are. see you next time.
