Pumbaa Quotes

	Season 1 / Episode 8: - Tanzania Zany / Guatemala Malarkey Timon: [as Pumbaa gets angry at Timon for not finding gold] Pumbaa, there's just one thing that frightens me more than mummy beetles and curses. Pumbaa: [angry] And what is that? Timon: [loses it] An angry warthog!
	Season 1 / Episode 7: - The Pain in Spain / Frantic Atlantic Timon: [confused at two Pumbaas] Pumbaa, if you're Pumbaa, then what Pumbaa is that Pumbaa? Pumbaa: El Toro!
	Season 1 / Episode 4: - How to Beat the High Costa Rica / Swiss Missed Pumbaa: He's gonna hurt us! Timon, ou gotta do something! Timon: [sarcastically] What do you want me to do, dress in drag and do the hula? Pumbaa: [lowly] I don't think that would work on this kind of situation.
	Season 1 / Episode 4: - How to Beat the High Costa Rica / Swiss Missed Pumbaa: [suspiciously, about Timon paying for the stuff on the beach] Are you sure you did the right thing and returned the money, Timon? Timon: Of course I did, Pumbaa. That's why they gave me such a big reward. Pumbaa: [worried] But this looks like exactly $1,290,000 worth of stuff. Timon: Isn't it ironic? That was the exact amount of the reward! Timon: Uh-oh!
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Are you sure you did the right thing and returned the money, Timon? Timon: Of course I did, Pumbaa. That's why they gave me such a big reward. Pumbaa: But this looks like exactly $1,290,000 worth of stuff. Timon: Isn't that ironic? That was the exact amount of the reward!
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Wait a minute! Timon: Which is probably the amount of time we have left to live.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: He's gonna hurt us, Timon! You've got to do something! Timon: What do you want me to do? Dress in drag and do the hula? Pumbaa: I don't think that would work in this kind of situation, Timon.
	Unknown Episode: Timon: [in an overlong trench coat] Good afternoon, sir! We would like to make you an offer... uh, er, I mean... I, a singular type human person... would like to make you an offer you can't refuse... Quint: Criminal Quint is busy. Timon: Wait! Don't shut us out! I mean, don't shut me, a singular type human person out... until you've seen... this! [displays a plunger] Quint: What is it? Timon: It is a toilet plunger. You know, to steal all that money people throw down the drain. And it can be yours for the low low introductory this-week-only price of uh... $1,290,000. Pumbaa: [from inside coat]... in unmarked bills. Pumbaa: I mean, not in unmarked bills! Pumbaa: Oww! I mean, I didn't say anything! Timon: Uh... my stomach can talk?
	Unknown Episode: Timon: [reading a newspaper article] "Criminal Quint, the most wanted criminal east of Alcatraz, has stolen a suitcase full of money?" Pumbaa: We'd better go right to the police, tell them what happened, and say to them everything we know! That would be the right thing to do. Timon: What gives you that idea? Pumbaa: Didn't you read the rest of the article? Timon: [reading] "If you know anything about this, please go right to the police and tell them what happened and say to them everything you know. That would be the right thing to do." [to Pumbaa] Pumbaa, we can't go to the police. Pumbaa: Why not? Timon: We found the money, right? Then we gave it back to Criminal Quint, correct? That makes us accomplices! Pumbaa: It does? Timon: Yes, it does! And that means we'll have to go to jail and call each other Butch and wear those stripy jail clothes! Pumbaa: Stripes make me look pudgy! And don't call me Butch.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Timon, aren't you glad we got $1? Timon: Well, of course I am, Pumbaa. See my big glad smile? Eeeee!
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Hey, look, Timon! You're Timonalisa! Timon: Now's not the time for comedy, Pumbaa.
	Unknown Episode: Timon: Of course! Why didn't I think of this before? Pumbaa: Did you just think, Timon, that you would use that red towel as a cape and go out and act as a matador, then I would come out and act as a bull, and after we've performed a couple of harmless charges and everyone is cheering, we make our escape? Timon: No, Pumbaa. I was thinking we'd capture a magic fairy and sprinkle his enchanted flying fairy dust into this towel. That way, we could soar into the heavens. Pumbaa: Gee, Timon, that sounds a little far-fetched. I think my idea of what you were thinking of is better.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: There's no escape, Timon! Timon: What are we going to do? Pumbaa: Well, you're the brave one. Maybe you should fight him. Timon: Me? Fight him? Have you flipped? Pumbaa: But earlier today, you said you were three times as brave as El Toro. Timon: Well, I thought we were talking about a different El Toro. Pumbaa: And then after that, you said you weren't afraid of nobody or nothing. Remember? Timon: Did I say that? Pumbaa: And then later, after that, you said that you were born brave, and I was just born. And then... Timon: All right! I'll save us!
	Unknown Episode: Timon: Pumbaa, there's just one thing that frightens me more than mummy beetles or curses! Pumbaa: And what might that be? Timon: An angry warthog!
	Unknown Episode: Timon: Only one person can help take care of you due to your sickness, Pumbaa. Pumbaa: My mommy? Timon: No, Pumbaa. Me.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: I feel kinda bad. Maybe we should have left him a note. Timon: Oh yeah, something like: "Dear annoying bunny. Ya nearly drove me bonkers. Love and kisses, Timon."
	Unknown Episode: Timon: Let's see, there's gotta be some way of getting out there. Pumbaa: Why don't you use a small open vessel that moves across bodies of water my means of oars, sails or engine? Timon: Why mess with all that when I can use a boat instead?
	Unknown Episode: Timon: It's no use we're gonna drown! We're gonna drown! Pumbaa: Maybe you should drill a hole and let the water out. Timon: [pause] Hey, I know, I'll drill a hole and let the water out. [Timon drills a hole and more water comes into the boat] Pumbaa: I don't think that was a very good idea of yours, Timon.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Gee, Timon, all this water out here is shallow. Timon: I can see that, Pumbaa. Pumbaa: And you were going through all that trouble to get across the water. Timon: Yes, I know. Pumbaa: When you could have walked across all this water easy as pie? Timon: Yes, I know. Pumbaa: Easy as falling off a log? Easy as spitting? Easy as saying "Jack Robinson"? Easy as 1, 2, 3? Easy as... Timon: [shouts] Yes, I know, Pumbaa!
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Uh... Timon, why didn't we bring any tools? You know, uh, shovels and picks and other things for digging up the gold that we're out here looking for. Timon: Pumbaa, let me explain Gold Mining. You simply pick up the gold and say, "This is mine"! Hence the term "Gold Mining".
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Wow! Wasn't that great how the nice man helped save your life, Timon? Wasn't it? Wasn't it? Wasn't it? Timon: Yeah, Pumbaa. Ya know that's just the sorta thing that makes you want to trust a guy. Pumbaa: So do you trust him now? Do ya? Timon: No.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Wow! The nice man saved your life again, Timon. No do you trust him? Timon: No.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Wow! The nice man saved your life, again, again, Timon! Now do you trust him? Timon: No. And the next two words out of your mouth had better not be "But, Timon". Pumbaa: Buh... Rrr... Tmph... Wigt... Blurr... Pff... Burlp... But, Timon!
	Unknown Episode: Timon: Huh, what that? I don't like the looks of the owl. Did you hear that, what was it? Pumbaa: The wind. Timon: I don't trust it. And I don't trust that tree or that shrub or the ground we're walkin' on.
	Unknown Episode: Timon: Clearly there must be an easier way of getting out there rather than straping ducks to my feet. Pumbaa: Like, say... A boat? Timon: Don't interupt, Pumbaa, I'm making a piont. Now, our little duck friends gave me an idea and I'll give you a hint as to what it is. Ahem. What do birds have that you and I do not have? Pumbaa: Feathers? Timon: Guess again. Pumbaa: Beaks? Timon: Guess again. Pumbaa: Claws? Timon: No, Pumbaa, guess once more. Pumbaa: Nests? Timon: One more guess. Pumbaa: Eggs? Timon: No. Pumbaa: Intelligence? Timon: No! Pumbaa: Girlfriends? Timon: No! Wings!
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: What are we going to do to get in here? Speedy: Sing?
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Yay, I love a happy ending. Timon: [sees that he and Pumbaa are mutated together] Ahh! Pumbaa: Boo. Timon: Crud.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: I don't wanna to pressure you, Timon, but that darts our last dart and there's no more darts after that dart. Timon: Shut up! I know what I'm doing.
	Unknown Episode: Pumbaa: Timon, does this make me look fat? Timon: Yes! Pumbaa: You didn't even look!
	Unknown Episode: Timon: What are you doing? Pumbaa: Lunch. Dignitaries do lunch, see.
