The Jungle Book 2 (2003) - Quotes

Baloo: Yeah, man!

Baloo: You! You stay away from me. Hey, I'm here because when a member of my den has a problem, then I have a problem.

Shanti: [overlapping Baloo] You! What are you doing here? Hey, I am really not in the mood, okay? I spent the night in the jungle! I was attacked by a snake! But I really don't care, because--

Baloo: And, that's why--

Both: [they hesitate] I'm here to help Mowgli! You are?

Baloo: I guess we're on the same side.

Shanti: [still coming to terms with the fact that Baloo is benevolent] I guess so.

Baloo: OK.

Shanti: OK.

Baloo: [Shanti hurries off; Baloo observes Shere Khan roaming around the temple from behind a gong, and sees Mowgli come out from his hiding place behind the gong a few yards away before hiding again. Baloo then sounds the gong with his fists, getting Shere Khan's attention. Mowgli peeks out and sees Shere Khan approaching Baloo's position. Shanti nervously bangs another gong, drawing Shere Khan towards her. Mowgli quietly observes Baloo and Shanti's actions and rings his gong with a couple branches, causing Shere Khan to hone in on his hiding place. Baloo sounds his gong again: Shere Khan immediately goes in his direction. The three then sound their gongs simultaneously, confusing Shere Khan. Unfortunately, the chain holding up Shanti's gong breaks off, getting Shere Khan's attention. Baloo and Mowgli gasp.] All right. You, uh... go that way. I'll cover you.

Shanti: Oh, no.

Shere Khan: [chuckles; chuckles; Shanti throws her sticks at Shere Khan] Well isn't this a delightful turn of events? So, what's it going to be, Man-Cub? You or your adorable little girlfriend? I'm waiting! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve--

Mowgli: [realizes that Shere Khan is going to kill Shanti and comes out from his hiding place and said] No! Don't!

Shere Khan: [turns to see Mowgli; he chuckles then scowls] Thirteen-- No more games, Man-Cub.

Shanti: Mowgli?!

Mowgli: Come on!

Baloo: Mowgli! Look out!

Shanti: [realizing there's a pit of lava at the bottom] Oh, no!

Mowgli: We can do it! Jump!

Mowgli: Come on!

Shere Khan: [Before his defeat; The statue tilts and falls. Shere Khan falls down towards the lava. Baloo barely catches Shanti and Mowgli. Shere Khan lands on a rocky outcrop in the lava pit. A second later, the statue seemingly crushes him. Baloo, Shanti, and Mowgli look down into the pit where Shere Khan fell. Shere Khan is now trapped in the statue's mouth; an injured but still alive Lucky appears.] Mowgli...

Lucky: [laughs crazily] Hello, stripes. You're looking a bit down in the mouth today.

Shere Khan: [Latest words] Oh, no...

Lucky: [laughing crazily] Hey, hey! What's the matter? Cat got your tongue? I always knew you had a head on your shoulders, eh, Khanny, my boy?

Ranjan's Father: [sighs] Mowgli! Perhaps I was too harsh on the boy.

Ranjan's Mother: [they both smile] Don't worry. We'll find them.

Ranjan's Father: Mowgli!

Ranjan's Mother: Ranjan!

Villager: Shanti!

Bagheera: [shock turns to anger] Baloo...!

Baloo: [singing; scatting as he bumps a coconut tree, causing a coconut to fall down, and he throws it onto a plant; continues scatting as he bumps a banana tree, causing a banana to fall; he shoots the banana, nearly hitting Bagheera who's sitting on a tree branch above him, before throwing the peel onto the coconut; laughs; scatting; Nothing happens, Bagheera sadly watches Baloo from his branch] Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities, forget about your worries and your strife. Yeah! I mean the... ...that bring the bare necessities of life. Now that's more like it! Look at ya! Oh, growing like a proverbial weed. Let's see if you've still got it. Take it away, little britches!

Bagheera: Poor fellow.

Baloo: [The coconut falls off the plant and rolls onto the ground. Baloo's smile turns into a frown as he sighs] I said, take it away!!! This ain't gonna work... You just ain't Mowgli. I guess I gotta get used to singing solo.

Bagheera: [gasps when he sees that Baloo is gone; he runs off after Baloo as the screen turns toward the coconut and banana peel. The music takes an ominous turn as the footsteps of another animal are heard; a shadow appears over the coconut before Shere Khan places his paw on top of it and crushes it] He's just not getting over that-- Oh, no. Not again! Baloo. Baloo!

Shere Khan: [growling] Mowgli...

Lucky: Ask me if I can whup that tiger! Go on!

Dizzy: Can you whup that tiger?

Lucky: [Shere Khan gets annoyed by Lucky's mockeries; the other vultures laugh] I Shere Khan!

Mowgli: [Shanti backs away in fear; Shanti nervously points at something behind Mowgli; he turns around and gasps when he sees Shere Khan lurking in the shadows, he approaches the children] There you are! I'm so sorry. Will you let me explain? Come on! At least talk to me.

Shere Khan: You seem surprised to see me, Man-Cub. I can't imagine why. I wasn't going to let you get away with what you did to me. You see, you humiliated me, Man-Cub. Surely you do realize I simply can't let you live.

Mowgli: [to Shanti and Ranjan] Run!

Shere Khan: Oh, you're going to try and outrun me. How droll!

Mowgli: [catches up with Shanti and Ranjan; Behind them, Shere Khan gives chase with a snarl; Mowgli, Shanti, and Ranjan climb over a log to some bushes] Come on! This way! All right. Stay here!

Shanti: [Shere Khan leaps over the log with a roar; Shanti and Ranjan hide in the bushes] Mowgli, no! Ranjan, wait here. I gotta go help Mowgli!

Ranjan: But I wanna help Mowgli too!

Shanti: [Shanti goes after Mowgli. Ranjan is still determined to help, and gets his loincloth caught by a branch revealing it to be his butt, he turns and panics because to him that looks like a horrifying paw to catches up behind him while tries to follows Shanti, and is thrown backwards and comes face-to-face with Baloo. He panics again and tries to run. Baloo picks him up by the loincloth.] No! No! I'll be right back. I promise. Don't move.

Baloo: Whoa, whoa. Hold still. Calm down, kid. Now, where's Mowgli?

Ranjan: Shere Khan!

Baloo: [shocked; puts Ranjan on his shoulders and hurries to the rescue. Meanwhile, Mowgli is still running as fast as he can, but stops when he comes to a lava lake surrounding an ancient temple.] Shere Khan? Hold on!

Mowgli: [Mowgli looks at the lava nervously and looks back when he hears Shere Khan roar behind him; he jumps across and barely grabs onto the other side. He looks back just in time to see Shere Khan appear and quickly climbs up and races up the stairs. Shere Khan gets across with an effortless running jump. Mowgli enters the temple looking for a place to hide.] Whoa!

Shere Khan: [laughing evilly; Shere Khan climbs up the stairs as Mowgli hides behind a gong, hyperventilating.; In the jungle, Bagheera climbs down from a tree branch and hears Ranjan's voice] No matter how fast you can run, no matter where you can hide, I will catch you. Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Ranjan: [Bagheera sees Ranjan] Hurry! Hurry! Faster, faster!

Bagheera: Oh, no! Not another Man-Cub!

Ranjan: [Bagheera then sees that Ranjan is riding on Baloo's shoulders] Can't you go any faster?

Bagheera: [gasps and races alongside him] Baloo! What is the meaning of this?!

Baloo: Mowgli's in trouble!

Ranjan: And Shanti, too!

Bagheera: [Meanwhile, Shanti has just reached the temple and leaps across the lava before hurrying inside. She reacts with horror upon seeing Shere Khan looking around for Mowgli. She desperately looks for a place to hide. Baloo, Ranjan, and Bagheera arrive at the temple mere seconds later.] Who's Shanti?

Baloo: Take the kid, Baggy! I'll help Mowgli!

Bagheera: Baloo, be careful.

Baloo: [wipes the mango off his nose, then gasps as he sees Bagheera appear; he glares at Baloo as he climbs down the rocks and approaches him] What are you laughing at? What are you doing out here, Baggy?

Bagheera: Haven't you heard? Man is in the jungle.

Baloo: Wha-wha-what do they want?

Bagheera: They're searching for Mowgli.

Baloo: Mowgli?

Bagheera: [smiles suspiciously] I thought that perhaps maybe you have seen the boy.

Baloo: Me? Uh, no. Well, you know his future is in that village.

Bagheera: Yes. I just wish I knew where he was.

Baloo: Yeah. Whew. Sorry. I wish I could help you out, Baggy.

Bagheera: [[Home Alone 3|Enough games,] D'oh! ] Baloo! Now give me the boy.

Baloo: Baggy, Baggy, Baggy, Baggy. I can explain. I can explain. I...can explain but I don't have to. Because you can plainly see, Mowgli is not here. I'm all alone.

Bagheera: [sighs] I know he's around here somewhere, and he can't hide forever.

Baloo: Well, he won't get past you, Baggy.

Bagheera: Hmm!

Baloo: [?; ?] Kid! Kid, where did you go?! ?

Mowgli: ?

Shere Khan: [arrives at the swamp, but doesn't see Mowgli, then realizes that Kaa has lied, as he looks at the water; Splashes the water with his paw] That snake lied to me!

Kaa: [a coconut lands on Kaa's face and bounces off; Kaa stares in shock to see Shere Khan; Shere Khan punches the rock in Kaa's coils] Oh, mercy. Shere Khan?

Shere Khan: Anyone I know?

Kaa: I wish. Stupid Man-Cub.

Shere Khan: Man-Cub?

Kaa: [laughs; his coils slither away] Ohh. Did I say Man-Cub? Well, well, I didn't know. I'd love to stay and shoot the breeze.

Shere Khan: What's your hurry?

Kaa: [gulps] Uh, no reason I...

Shere Khan: Where is he?

Kaa: Who he?

Shere Khan: [scratches Kaa's neck] The Man-Cub Mowgli. I know you know.

Kaa: Ohh... But, I don't.

Shere Khan: [grabs Kaa's throat] Oh, please don't insult my intelligence. It makes me irritable.

Kaa: Oh, he's not in the village.

Shere Khan: [squeezes Kaa's throat tightly] I know where he isn't. Now tell me, where...he...IS.

Kaa: Well, he's, he's... THE SWAMP! He's at the swamp, yes.

Shere Khan: Hmmm. The swamp, eh?

Kaa: [he uses his hypnosis technique with his eyes; Shere Khan lets go of Kaa's throat off in the ground] Yes. Trust in me.

Shere Khan: [steps on Kaa's neck with his front paw; steps on his face with his rear paw] Hmm. He's better be. For your sake.

Kaa: [wheezing; gasps] He is! He is! I'd take you there myself, but I'm afraid I'd slow you down. Indigestion and all.

Shanti: I'm OK. Mom, I'm so sorry. I was just trying to help Mowgli. And then, I got lost and....

Shanti's Mother: It's okay.

Mowgli: I'm sorry, sir. It's just...

Ranjan's Father: [Smiles at Mowgli, who promptly smiles back and hugs him] No, Mowgli. I'm sorry. I should have understood that the jungle is a part of who you are. I'm just glad you're safe.

Baloo: Hi, kid. Mind if I drop in?

Mowgli: Baloo? Oh, Baloo...

Baloo: Shhh.

Mowgli: Papa Bear. Am I glad to see you. What are you doing here?

Baloo: [Mowgli punches on his belly] What am I doing here? Feeling right for the first time in a while, that's what. Hey, kid. Show me you can still fight like a bear. Come on. Oh, Little Britches, you lost your touch.

Shanti: Mowgli, I've got something for you. Mowgli, it's me. Don't be mad. I get grounded all the time.

Shere Khan: Ah.

Shanti: Mowgli, I'm sorry you got in trouble.

Shere Khan: Come on, man cub. Show yourself.

Baloo: Come on!

Mowgli: Whoa!

Shanti: Mowgli?

Baloo: Come on. Stick and move.

Shanti: [sees Baloo catching Mowgli and playing with him, thinking he is threatening her man cub and not knowing they're friends, shocked and frightened] Aaahhh! Help! Wild animal! There's a wild animal in the village!

Baloo: What?! Wild animal? Where? Come on, let's get out of here.

Shanti: HELP!

Villager: What?! Where is it?!

Shere Khan: What's that bear doing here?

Shanti: There's a wild animal in the village!

Ranjan's Father: What is the matter?

Villager: There he is.

Villager: It's a tiger!

Shanti: Where are you going? No, come back! Come back! You're going the wrong way!

Ranjan: [roars] Whoa! A tiger!

Villager: Don't let him get away.

Shanti: No! Please...

Baloo: We gotta get out of here!

Villager: Shanti, get indoors.

Shanti: [groans in frustration, then quickly grabs a torch and bravely follows them] No, no, no. He's over... No!

Shanti: [regaining consciousness, realizing they're headed into the jungle and looking worried] Whoa, wait, wait. Stop! You're crossing the river. Mowgli, you can't go in the jungle. It's too dangerous. Mowgli! STOP!

Ranjan's Father: [To the children; The children start slowly walking back to the village, to Mowgli; Shanti feels ashamed of herself and worriedly turns from the Village Leader to Mowgli as he slowly walks to him; [The Lion King|''(You know what,)'' I'm very disappointed in you; [The Lion King|you deliberately disobeyed me!?] Shanti, what is it? Children-children, come inside this instant, all of you!!! Mowgli?! That includes you. ]. You put everyone in danger. You know that you're not even allowed to cross the river, and yet ]

Mowgli: But, but, I...

Ranjan's Father: [to Mowgli; ?; shows scratches on his arm from a tiger; [The Lego Movie|You are confined go to your room without dinner. That should give you plenty of time to think about what you've done.; As Mowgli heads towards the village he turns to Shanti, angrily looks at her and turns his back on her as she approaches him.] No, Mowgli. The jungle is a dangerous place. I should know. ]

Shanti: [Mowgli glares at her, and she sadly backs away and puts her hands down. As Mowgli angrily walks on into the village, Shanti looks on and holds her hands together.] Mowgli, I was only trying to...

Ranjan: [beats Kaa repeatedly with a stick for trying to eat Shanti] Bad snake! Bad snake! Bad, bad, bad snake!

Shanti: Ranjan? What are you doing here?

Ranjan: You leave Shanti alone!

Ranjan: Hey, Mowgli!

Shanti: Shh. Ranjan, hush. It's starting.

Ranjan's Father: [laughs; Ranjan chuckles; to Mowgli] Come, children. Come watch. Mowgli, tell us your story.

Mowgli: [Title card, The Jungle Book 2] I never knew where I came from, but I always knew where I belonged. This is me and Bagheera, the panther who found me in the jungle. He's a good friend of mine, but my best friend of all was good old Papa Bear.

Shanti: A bear?!

Mowgli: Man. We had some crazy times together. And when the monkeys grabbed me things got really crazy.

Ranjan: Monkey! Go, Papa Bear!

Mowgli: Then I came face to face with the meanest, scariest tiger in the whole jungle, Shere Khan.

Ranjan: [roaring; rips the blanket] You stay away from Mowgli, you mean old tiger or I'll tie some fire to your tail and burn your butt! Yaah!

Ranjan's Mother: Ranjan!

Ranjan: Whoa! Uhh!

Ranjan's Mother: Oh, Ranjan.

Ranjan: I got him, Mowgli. Did you see? I got him.

Mowgli: You sure did, Ranjan... but it's gonna be kind of hard to finish the story now.

Ranjan: But we all know how it ends. Shanti blinks her big beautiful brown eyes at you, and you follow her into our village.

Shanti: I did not.

Mowgli: Did so.

Shanti: Something was in my eye.

Mowgli: Both of them?

Shanti: Well, you were so ugly you made my eyes water.

Mowgli: Well, you...

Ranjan's Father: Ha, ha! Now, now. We give thanks for Shanti's beautiful brown eyes. Without them, Mowgli would never have found his way into our lives. Come to think of it, you used the same trick on me.

Ranjan's Mother: And you still fall for it.

Shanti's Mother: Thank you for a wonderful story, Mowgli.

Shanti: [she got beautiful blinking eyelashes at Mowgli] Goodnight, Mowgli.

Mowgli: Night, Shanti. Watch out for Shere Khan on your way home.

Shanti: You and your stories. Everyone know tigers don't come into the village.

Ranjan: [roars] Tigers go wherever they want!

Shanti: Aah!

Shanti's Mother: [chuckles] Ooh! Goodnight, boys.

Mowgli: Tomorrow's gonna be so great.

Ranjan's Mother: What happens tomorrow?

Ranjan: Um...

Mowgli and Ranjan: Nothing.

Ranjan's Mother: Aha. Well, then, you will need plenty of rest... For doing nothing tomorrow. Off to bed.

Ranjan: [yawns] Ah, we never get to stay up late.

Ranjan's Father: [picking Ranjan up; Ranjan roaring at his Father] Ha, ha! Even wild beasts need their sleep. Oh, help! Ferocious tiger!

Ranjan's Mother: [kisses Ranjan's head] Ah, goodnight, my little wild thing.

Ranjan's Father: [hugging Mowgli with his chest] Goodnight, Mowgli. Happy dreams.

Mowgli: Um, goodnight... sir.

Ranjan: Why do you always call him "Sir"? His name's "Pop".

Bagheera: This has to stop. You can't keep trying to take Mowgli from the man-village. The boy's future lies with his own kind.

Baloo: [?; sighs] Oh! His future can wait. I miss my bear cub.

Bagheera: [sighs] It's not safe for him in the jungle. You know Shere Khan is looking for Mowgli.

Baloo: [Bagheera walks in front of Baloo] Just let Shere Khan try something. We handled old stripes once, we'll do it again.

Bagheera: Baloo, don't push your luck.

Baloo: Outta the way, Baggy!

Bagheera: [Before he can finish his sentence, Bagheera falls through the log then into the river with a scream. Baloo looks down the hole in the log. Bagheera jumps out for air.] You're not going anywhere near the village!

Baloo: Later, Baggy!

Bagheera: That's it! Hathi, Plan B!
