[Mufasa and Simba ascend Pride Rock]
Mufasa: Look, Simba. Everything the light touches is our kingdom.
Simba: Wow!
Mufasa: A King's time as ruler, rises and falls like the sun. One day Simba, the sun will set on my time here, and will rise with you as the new King.
Simba: And this'll all be mine?
Mufasa: Everything.
Simba: Everything the light touches... but what about that shadowy place?
MUFASA: That's beyond our borders. You must never go there, Simba.
Simba: But I thought a King can do whatever he wants.
MUFASA: Oh, there's a lot more to being King than getting your way all the time!
Simba: There's more?!
Mufasa: [chuckles] Simba... everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance, and respect all creatures--from the crawling ant, to the leaping antelope.
SIMBA: But, dad, don't we eat the antelope?
Mufasa: Yes son, but let me explain. When we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass. And so, we are all connected, in the great circle of life.
Zazu: Good morning, sire!
(Are we gonna do The Morning Report? :p)
MUFASA: Good morning, Zazu!
(No! :p)
Zazu: Checking in with morning report.
MUFASA: Fire away!
Zazu: Well! The buzz from the bees is that the leopards are in a bit of a spot...
(I admit I had to look at the script for that. :hehe:)
Mufasa: Oh really?
Zazu: ...and the baboons are going ape over this. Of course, the giraffes are acting like they're above it all...
