[Kwame and his comrades laugh]

[Ursula laughs]

[reaching the end of a long trail]
Thor: Max, look! We're back at the tree house!
Ape: Well, I tried, but you fellas are just too smart for me.
Max: Oh, no!
Narrator: "Oh, no" was right! Because even at that moment...
Thor: [looking up] Hey! Why don't you say something constructive for a change, like what we should do now?

[to Max his sidekick]

Ursula Stanhope: [semi-conscious] Mommy, make that monkey stop talking...

[first lines]
Narrator: Deep in the heart of Africa is a place no man has ever entered. The place that belongs to the lion, the elephant and the ape. A place known as the Bukuvu. Travellers flying overhead can only glimpse at its many marvels, its sparkling rivers, its lush veldts, its billowy cloud formations and its hidden mountains. Never fear, my friends. All was not lost. Scraped and boo-booed, they searched high and low, but they never recovered their most precious cargo.

Narrator: But his rapturous rendezvous with the urban heiress was to be short-lived, Kwame and his men were drawing dangerously close! That is, dangerously close to shoving a coconut up Lyle's... sleeping bag.

Lyle: No hard feelings, Stonebelly. The best man won, that's all. Or, I should say, the guy who brought mercenaries won; *that's* all.

[while seeing a footprint, the Swahili guides are speaking to Mr. Kwame in Swahili]
Lyle: [pushes one of the Swahili guides] Let me through.
Lyle: [then approaches Mr. Kwame] What's happening?
Kwame: This footprint does not belong to any of my men.
Max: [to Thor] See? There's your proof, the white ape does exist. Now all we have to do is track down the girl and the ape's in the bag.

Narrator: And so, jazzed on java, George of the Jungle made his way into the city by the way.

George: It dancin' time. Ursula wanna dance?

[last lines]
Ape: [sings] I aced it all and I stood tall, and did it my way.

Narrator: Meanwhile, at a very expensive waterfall set...

Narrator: Meanwhile, back in the jungle...

Mercenary: [several mercenaries grab George] At ease, jungle boy!

Narrator: When they approached it, they gazed in awe.
Group: Aaawwwwww
Narrator: I said *Awe* - A... W... E!
Group: Oooooohhhh
Narrator: That's better!

Thor: George of the Jungle must be halfway to 'Frisco by now.
Narrator: But our plotting poachers were only half correct for at that very moment, our handsome hero was all the way to San Francisco.

Max: 50 zamoles a man, what do you say?
Kwame: They only speak Swahili.
Swahili Guide: [in English] 100 zamoles a man and you've got a deal.
Lyle: Wait a second...
Max: Done.
[guides laugh]

[Max and Thor arrive at the tree house to capture a talking ape]
Thor: There's five stinking apes out there. Which one are we taking to Vegas?
Max: The one who's playing chess!

Narrator: [on seeing Shep's trunk wrapped around a giant "Milkbone."] Wait a second. The dog bone is too much. Lose it. That's better.

People of San Francisco: Watch out for that...!
[George swings and bangs into the boat]

[Lyle, Max, Thor, Kwame and his comrades are taking a walk on a trail]
Lyle: Gosh, this trail is really rough.

[Lyle gets off one of Kwame's comrades' back]
N'Dugo: [in Swahili, subtitled]
[mocking Lyle]
N'Dugo: "Ursula! Ursula!" Next cliff we pass, he's history.
[Kwame's comrades have a conversation in Swahili and start walking without Lyle]
Lyle: Hey, come back here.
Max: They're not abandoning us, are they?
Kwame: They are threatening.

[after returning from Africa, Ursula phones her mother from a limousine]
Ursula's mother: You're sure you did not catch dengue fever?
Ursula Stanhope: No mother, I did not catch dengue fever.
Ursula's mother: Well, how's your temperature?
Ursula Stanhope: [puts a hand to her forehead] Normal.
Ursula's mother: Color of your tongue?
Ursula Stanhope: [checks it in the mirror] Pink.
Ursula's mother: What about your, uh, mmm-mmm?
Ursula Stanhope: [annoyed] Regular!

Narrator: Every story gets to have a really big coincidence, and here's ours:

[Monkey sees George being taken away]
Monkey: Ooh ooh eee eee aah aah!
Mercenary: Oh, see the monkey.

George: So you no want Ursula to love George?
Ursula's mother: I'd rather have my tongue nailed to this table every morning at breakfast.
George: That hurt.
Ursula's mother: Not as much as you will if you do anything to screw up my daughter's marriage to Lyle van de Groot.

Narrator: After a night of feverish fantasies, the perfectly permed heiress, Ursula Stanhope, awoke to the melodious music of the Bukuvu bird life, and found herself venturing forth in search of that defender of the innocent, protector of the weak and all-around good guy, George of the Jungle. But that's not who she saw first.

George: Sleep sweet, Ursula.
Ursula Stanhope: Sleep sweet, George.

Ape: I'm hungry!
Thor: Oh, shut up. You've been yakkin' for two days straight, and I'm gettin' mad enough to...
Ape: You know, you really should work on your anger. Have you tried Brankowski's "Cage the Rage" technique?
Max: Don't let him get to you, Thor. He's just an ape.
Ape: That's a fine way to talk to your meal ticket. You keep that up, it's liable to affect my stage performance.
Max: Give him a banana, Thor. It won't be long now.
Thor: That's what you said yesterday! This trail is taking us to the middle of nowhere!
Max: The sign at the trail head said "Short cut to Ape River." Now, why would it say "short cut" if it wasn't a...
Max: [pause] Wait a minute. Maybe it's a fake, a decoy trail.
Ape: Very good, Max. Actually, the trail is a fake. It circles Ape Mountain six times before heading right back to the tree house.
Thor: [groaning in frustration] Ohh! Oh, I knew we was lost.
Max: Don't listen to him, Thor. He's just tryin' to trick us, lead us off the short cut so we take twice as long on the regular trail.
Thor: We're already taking twice as long!
Max: Are you gonna let a monkey make a monkey out of ya?
Thor: What?
Ape: Duh!
Max: Let's go. If he tells us the short cut leads to the tree house, then that's exactly where it doesn't lead.

George: Here comes shep.

Lyle: Ursula, I found your scrunchie.

George: George not feel so good.
