Timon indulges in the jungle's luxuries by himself, but loneliness starts to overwhelm him. Upset that Simba left them, Timon unsuccessfully tries to persuade Pumbaa to stay, but Pumbaa, annoyed that Timon would callously abandon Simba when he needs him, follows Simba and Nala. Nala explains that he had run off to challenge Scar and reclaim Pride Rock, so that they need their help. After they witness Simba and Nala's argument, Simba disappears. Believing Hakuna Matata to be in jeopardy, Timon and Pumbaa attempt to sabotage their dates, but fail every time. Years later, Nala appears and reunites with Simba after chasing and mistaking Pumbaa for food. They rescue him and decide to raise him under their philosophy. They finally settle there with the philosophy of Hakuna Matata.Įventually, Timon and Pumbaa encounter Simba in a nearby desert, nearly dead. Exhausted, Timon decides to give up, until Pumbaa discovers a luxurious green jungle he tried to tell Timon about earlier. Eventually, the pair are caught in the wildebeest stampede that killed Mufasa, and are thrown off a waterfall in their attempt to escape. Following this, Timon and Pumbaa make multiple attempts to set up homes throughout the Pride Lands, but wind up being forced away every time after witnessing several events from the original film, such as Simba singing " I Just Can't Wait to Be King", Mufasa's fight with the hyenas, and Scar's conspiring with the hyenas. As they make their way through the crowd of onlookers, Pumbaa explosively passes gas due to his fear of crowds, causing an elephant to trumpet in fear and nearby animals to faint, but prompting animals further away to bow to Simba. The pair arrive at Pride Rock during the presentation of Simba to the Pride Lands' animals. The two quickly form a bond and Pumbaa accompanies Timon.
Believing Pride Rock to be his paradise home, Timon ventures there and encounters Pumbaa on his way. Timon takes the advice literally and observes Pride Rock in the distance. He meets the mandrill Rafiki, who teaches him about " Hakuna Matata" and advises him to "look beyond what you see". Now completely shunned and convinced that he will never fit in with the other meerkats, Timon decides to leave to find a better life. One day, he is assigned as a sentry in an attempt by his mother to get him accepted, but his daydreaming leads to the near death of his Uncle Max by the hyenas Shenzi, Banzai and Ed. Though he is unconditionally supported by his mother, Timon dreams of a better life than his colony's bleak existence continuously hiding from predators. Timon is a social outcast in his meerkat colony on the outskirts of the Pride Lands due to frequently messing things up by accident. Pumbaa's protest over this eventually prompts Timon to share his backstory, going back to before the beginning of the movie.
