Plot: "African Time" is a phrase used to describe the relaxed attitude that many Africans exhibit towards time. It seems to have become a part of African culture in that most African events tend begin a few hours after the specified start time. This becomes frustrating to those Africans that like to be punctual. Ironically, many Africans that are late to various social events are seldom late to work and other self-benefiting engagements. This story humorously uses different events to explore the habit of late coming among Africans. While addressing some of the challenges that several Africans face with being on time, the story also unveils how to combat the infamous African Time.

Through this, we meet Timon's mother and Uncle Max, discover why he left his meerkat colony, where he learned Hakuna Matata, how he meets Pumbaa, and the perils they encountered while searching for their dream home.

Rafiki: Look beyond what you see.

[Rafiki appears before Timon from a tree]::Timon: You! No, no, don't say a word. I know what you're going to say. [Imitates Rafiki] Did you find Hakuna Matata? [Normal] Well, yes, I did! Thank you very much. [Laughs] And I am happy. Happy, happy, deliriously happy. [Imitates] Ho ha ha! I see. Happy, is it? So, if you're so happy, why do you look so miserable? [Normal] Miserable, you say? Why should I be miserable? Oh, I don't know. Maybe my two best pals in the world deserted me. Heh. They - they've headed off on some heroic mission... .

Plot: Simba and Nala have a daughter, Kiara. Timon and Pumbaa are assigned to be her babysitters, but she easily escapes their care and ventures into the forbidden lands. There she meets a lion cub named Kovu and they become friends. What she and her parents do not know is that Kovu is the son of Zira - a banished follower of the now-dead Scar. She plans to raise Kovu to overthrow Simba and become the king of the Pride Lands. This tests not only Kiara and Kovu's relationship as they mature, but Simba's relationship with his daughter.

Quotes:

[Kiara and Kovu are stargazing]::Kovu: I've never done this before.::Kiara: Really? My father and I used to do this all the time. He says all the great kings of the past are up there.::Kovu: You think Scar's up there?::[Shocked, Kiara doesn't answer]::Kovu: He wasn't my father, but he was still part of me.::Kiara: My father said there was a darkness in Scar that he couldn't escape.::Kovu: Maybe there's a darkness in me too.

Timon: That's not a king. That's a fuzzy maraca!

[Rehearsing speaking to Simba]::Timon: The good news is, we found your daughter. The bad news is, we dropped a warthog on her.

Kiara: Them? Us? Look at them... they *are* us! What differences do you see?

Simba: Stay out of this!::Kiara: A wise king once told me, we are one. I didn't understand him then. Now I do.::Simba: But they...::Kiara: Them? Us. Look at them, they are us. What differences do you see?

Kovu: I humbly ask to join your pride.::Simba: No! You were banished, along with the outsiders.::Kovu: I have left the outsiders. I'm a rogue, judge me now, for who I am. Or am I to be blamed for a crime I didn't commit?

Timon: Pumbaa, let me define BABY-SITTING!

Zira: What is your destiny?::Kovu: I will avenge Scar. Take his place in the Pride Lands.::Zira: Yes! What have I taught you?::Kovu: Simba is the enemy.::Zira: And What... must... do?::Kovu: I must *kill* him!
