Quotes 

  • Adult Simba : Listen, you think you can just show up and tell me how to live my life? You don't even know what I've been through!

    Nala : I would if you just tell me!

    Adult Simba : Forget it!

    Nala : Fine!

  • Timon : Let me get this straight. You're the king? And you never told us?

    Adult Simba : Look, I'm still the same guy.

    Timon : But with power!

    Nala : Could you guys excuse us for a few minutes?

    Timon : Hey, whatever she has to say, she can say in front of us. Right, Simba?

    Adult Simba : Mm... Maybe you'd better go.

    Timon : It starts. You think you know a guy...

    [Timon and Pumbaa leave] 

    Adult Simba : Timon and Pumbaa. You learn to love 'em.

  • Nala : What made you come back?

    Adult Simba : I finally got some sense knocked into me. And I've got the bump to prove it.

  • Nala : What's happened to you? You're not the Simba I remember.

    Adult Simba : You're right. I'm not. Now are you satisfied?

    Nala : No. Just disappointed.

    Adult Simba : You know, you're starting to sound like my father.

    Nala : Good. At least one of us does.

  • Scar : [Scar and the Hyenas approach him, leading him to the edge of a cliff]  Oh, Simba, you're in trouble again, but this time, Daddy isn't here to save you, and now everyone knows why!

    [Simba falls back, but hangs desperately onto the edge] 

    Nala : Simba!

    [Lightning strikes the ground below, causing a fire to start up] 

  • Nala : Have you guys seen Simba?

    Timon : I thought he was with you.

    Nala : He was, but now I can't find him. Where is he?

    [Rafiki laughs. He's sitting in a tree above them] 

    Rafiki : [Chuckles]  You won't find him here! The king has returned.

    Nala : I can't believe it. He's gone back!

    Timon : Gone back? What do you mean?

    [He looks to the tree. Rafiki has disappeared] 

    Timon : Hey, what's goin' on here? Who's the monkey?

    Nala : Simba's gone back to challenge Scar.

    Timon : Who?

    Nala : Scar.

    Pumbaa : Who's got a scar?

    Nala : No, no, no, it's his uncle.

    Timon : The monkey's his uncle?

    Nala : No! Simba's gone back to challenge his uncle to take his place as king.

    Timon , Pumbaa : Oh.

  • Adult Simba : Look, Sometimes bad things happen...

    Nala : Simba.

    Adult Simba : And there's nothing you can do about it. So why worry?

    Nala : Because it's your responsibility.

    Adult Simba : Well, what about you? You left.

    Nala : I left to find help, and I found you. Don't you understand? You're our only hope.

    Adult Simba : Sorry.

  • Nala : [about Scar]  Simba, he let the hyenas take over the Pride Lands.

    Adult Simba : What?

    Nala : Everything's destroyed. There's no food, no water. Simba, if you don't do something soon, everyone will starve.

    Adult Simba : I can't go back.

    Nala : Why?

    Adult Simba : You wouldn't understand.

    Nala : What wouldn't I understand?

    Adult Simba : No, no, no. It doesn't matter. Hakuna Matata.

    Nala : What?

    Adult Simba : Hakuna Matata. It's something I learned out here.

  • Adult Simba : Nala? Is it really you?

    Nala : Who are you?

    Adult Simba : It's me, Simba.

    Nala : Simba?

    [he nods. Nala was elated to see him] 

    Nala : Whoa!

    [they bud their heads] 

    Nala : How did you...

    Adult Simba : How did you...

    [Timon stood there surprised and speechless] 

    Adult Simba : Wow!

    Nala : Where did you come from?

    Adult Simba : This is gr... It's great to see you!

    Timon : Hey, what's goin' on here?

    Adult Simba : What are you doing here?

    Nala : What do you mean what am I doing here? What are you doing here?

    Timon : Hey! What's goin' on here?

  • Adult Simba : Isn't this a great place?

    Nala : It is beautiful. But I don't understand something. You've been alive all this time. Why didn't you come back to Pride Rock.

    Adult Simba : Well, I just needed to get out on my own, live my own life. And I did, and it's great.

  • Nala : Wait till everyone finds out you've been here all this time. And your mother, what will she think?

    Adult Simba : She doesn't have to know. Nobody has to know.

    Nala : Of course they do. Everyone thinks you're dead.

    Adult Simba : They do.

    Nala : Yeah. Scar told us about the stampede.

    Adult Simba : He did? What else did he tell you?

    Nala : What else matters? You're alive. And that means, you're the king.

    Timon : King? Lady, have you got your lions crossed!

  • Adult Simba : Timon, this is Nala. She's my best friend.

    Timon : Friend?

    Adult Simba : Yeah. Hey, Pumbaa, come over here.

    Pumbaa : Huh?

    Adult Simba : Nala, this is Pumbaa. Pumbaa, Nala.

    Pumbaa : Please to make your acquaintance.

    Nala : The pleasure is all mine.

    Timon : How do you do?

  • Timon : [to Pumbaa]  It's not gravel, it's grovel. And don't! He's not the king.

    [to Simba] 

    Timon : Are you?

    Adult Simba : No.

    Nala : Simba!

    Adult Simba : No, I'm not the king. Maybe I was gonna be, but that was a long time ago.

  • Nala : We really needed you at home.

    Adult Simba : No one needs me.

    Nala : Yes, we do. You're the king.

    Adult Simba : Nala, we've been through this. I'm not the king. Scar is.

  • Scar : [about the hyenas]  They think I'm the King.

    Nala : Well, we don't. Simba's the rightful king.

    Adult Simba : The choice is yours, Scar. Either step down or a fight.

  • Adult Simba : [sternly]  Give me one good reason why I shouldn't rip apart.

    Scar : [nervously]  Oh, Simba. You must understand. The pressures of ruling a kingdom...

    Adult Simba : [interrupts]  Are no longer yours. Step down, Scar.

    Scar : Well, I would, naturally. However, there is one little problem. You see them?

    [points up to the hyenas as they have their scary faces] 

    Scar : They think I'm king.

    Nala : [enters the scene]  Well, we don't. Simba's the rightful king.

    Adult Simba : The choice is yours, Scar. Either step down or fight.

    Scar : Oh, must it all end in violence? I'd hate to be responsible for the death of a family member. Wouldn't you agree, Simba?

    Adult Simba : That's not gonna work, Scar. I've put it behind me.

    Scar : But what about your faithful subjects? Have they put it behind them?

    Nala : Simba, what is he talking about?

    Scar : Ah, so you haven't told them your little secret. Well, Simba, now's your chance to tell them. Tell them who is responsible for Mufasa's death.

    Adult Simba : I am.

    Sarabi : [walks to Simba]  It's not true. Tell me it's not true.

    Adult Simba : It's true.

    Scar : You see? He admits it! Murderer!

    Adult Simba : No! it was an accident.

    Scar : If it weren't for you, Mufasa would still be alive. It's your fault he's dead! Do you deny it?

    Adult Simba : No.

    Scar : Then you're guilty.

    Adult Simba : No, I'm not a murderer!

    Scar : [starts backing Simba]  Oh, Simba, you're in trouble again, but this time, daddy isn't here to save you, and now, everyone knows why!

    [Simba slips over the edge and is clinging to the ledge by his forepaws] 

    Nala : [shocked]  Simba!

    [lightning strikes below, igniting a fire] 

    Scar : [starts thinking]  Now, this looks familiar. Hmm, where have I seen this before? Let me think. Oh, yes, I remember. This is just the way your father looked before he died.

    [grabs Simba with his claws] 

    Scar : And here's my little secret.

    [whispers in his ear] 

    Scar : I killed Mufasa.

    Adult Simba : [flashes back of Mufasa falling in a stampede]  No!

    [lunges up and pins Scar on his back] 

    Adult Simba : Murderer!

    Scar : No, Simba, please.

    Adult Simba : Tell them the truth.

    Scar : Truth? But truth is in the eye of the behold...

    [Simba starts choking him] 

    Scar : All right. All right.

    [quietly] 

    Scar : I did it.

    Adult Simba : So, they can hear you.

    Scar : I killed Mufasa!
