02
The sun rises full and brilliant over the African plain. A new day has dawned. Animals across the pride lands migrate through the majestic landscape, past cascading waterfalls and rose-tinted mountains. They gather below Pride Rock and wait. A great silence falls, Zazu, a fussbudget hornbill, and the king's advisor, lands on a plateau where Mufasa, the regal lion king, waits. Gesturing with his wing that all is ready, Zazu bows to the great king.

03
High atop the plateau, Mufasa looks at the animals in his kingdom gathered below. Suddenly, a figure hobbles from the crowd and scales the cliff. It is Rafiki, a wise old baboon. Slowly and solemnly, Rafiki makes his way to his old friend, Mufasa. They embrace. Mufasa leads Rafiki to a cozy den where Sarabi, his wife, nestles their newborn cub.

04
The age-old anointing ceremony begins. Like an ancient Shaman, Rafiki shakes a gourd over Simba. He cracks the gourd open and smears its juice on the tiny cub's forehead. Rafiki picks up a handful of dirt and sprinkles it delicately over Simba. The little infant sneezes. Gently, Rafiki stands on the promontory and lifts Simba for all to see. With cries of joy, the animals honor the new king.

05
After Simba's presentation, Mufasa and Zazu pay Scar, Mufasa's vindictive, evil brother, a visit. Professing concern, Mufasa asks his brother why he missed the ceremony. Scar insinuates that the ceremony wasn't important enough for him to acknowledge. His answer barely masks his jealousy. If it weren't for Simba, Scar would be next in line for king. The age-old battle for power has begun.

Time Passes...the little infant Simba grows into a feisty, independent lion cub. Mufasa realizes that Simba's training for eventual leadership must begin.

11
Upon reaching the elephant graveyard, Simba and Nala are taken aback by its eerie atmosphere. Steam hisses from the ground, mists swell, and old, fermenting elephant bones lie in bubbling, sulphurous pools. Dominating it all is a huge elephant skull. Simba and Nala take a deep breath, summon all their courage, and cautiously enter.

12
Walking toward a gaping eye socket, Simba is about to enter the vacuous hole when Zazu suddenly swoops in to scold him. Simba is beyond the boundary of the Pride Lands, and on dangerous ground. Ignoring the worried Zazu, Simba continues on. Then dark, insidious laughter echoes menacingly across the graveyard slowly. A trio of vicious hyenas named Shenzi, Banzai and Ed slink from the darkness of the graveyard and surround Simba, Nala and Zazu.

The nasty trio corner Simba and Nala, arguing nastily about who will eat what for dinner. In an unguarded moment, Simba and Nala attempt to getaway, but the hyenas close in fast. Trying their best to climb a skull, Simba and Nala can't gain enough traction, so they slide down a long elephant spine and land in a pile of bones. The hyenas catch up with them and force Simba and Nala into a dead end. Their only option is to climb an elephant carcass. As they do, the dry bones give way and snap down on Simba and Nala, imprisoning them in a cage of elephant rib bones!

14
Circling the cage of bones, the hyenas terrorize the young cubs, Simba musters up all the courage he can to roar, but all that comes out is a pathetic squeak. The hyenas laugh hystericallly. Then, a huge roar interrupts their laughter. Simba's father, Mufasa, has arrived. Frightened by the powerful Lion King, the cowardly hyenas take off.

17
Scar visits the hyena's lair, and it's obvious that something's on his mind. Impatient that his plan to become king has been delayed, Scar tells the hyenas that they bungled an easy job. He offered them the cubs on a silver platter. Scar then makes an agreement with the vicious trio. He'll make sure that they'll never go hungry again, if they agree to help him kill Mufasa and Simba. As Scar sings of his plan, darkness permeates the land - rock pillars thrust from the ground and steam vents erupt!

19
As he works on developing a deeper roar, Simba is unaware of any impending danger. Then in the distance, a huge, thundering sound reverberates through the gorge. Through the clouds of blinding dust, Simba notices a stampede of wildebeest pounding toward him. Terrified, Simba runs.

20
Racing behind the wildebeest, the evil trio of hyenas nip at their hooves, driving the panic-stricken herd after Simba, who seems to have little hope of escape. From a plateau above the gorge, Mufasa and Zazu notice the dust cloud. Suddenly, Scar conveniently appears, with nothing but sheer malice in mind. He feigns panic and directs Mufasa into the gorge to rescue Simba. Mufasa descends into the gorge and fights his way upstream through the thunderous herd of wildebeest.
