Kowalski: That's not what you're going for, is it? Private has a Mort foam finger on his flipper. Private: Maurice says he's got a very important announcement. Maurice: All right. Might I have everyone's attention? Anyone? Eyes and ears? Skipper, Kowalski, and Marlene are talking. Mason is watching Phil playing a Chinese Trap. Private and Rico are sword-fighting with Mort foam fingers. Maurice: Hello? Is anyone listening? Mort gets on Maurice's head. Mort: (yells) QUIET! Everyone stops and then Mort gets down. Mort: (quietly) Thank you. Mort jumps off of Maurice's head and pulls a boom box. Maurice: It is my honor to introduce King Julien, leader of lemurs, lord of the ring-tails, et cetera, et cetera, et cet-er-a! Mort pushes the play button on the boom box and King Julien enters dramatically, dancing and cheering for himself. Cheering is also heard from the boom box. The animals exchange glances and then Mort pushes the stop button. Julien: Ha-ha-ha. Thank you, Maurice, for your hearty "et ceteras" I will cut to the chases. In a few hours, we celebrate the biggest holiday of the year! Marlene: (excited) Christmas in July (deflates) Except, it's not Christmas and it's not July. Julien: (aside) Look how playfully they teased me, Maurice. (laughs) You know I am speaking of King Julien Day! How could you not? It's on every calender. Maurice pulls out their Lemur calender with a drawing of Julien's face on the number 15. Private: What about this one? He pulls out the penguins' calender. Julien snaps his fingers. Julien: Maurice. Maurice uses a pencil and draws Julien's face on the page. Julien: Ah-ha! There it is. See? So shut up and start shopping! Mort laughs and plays the boom box. Julien exits the shop and the music stops. Marlene: So, what is King Julien Day? Maurice: On King Julien Day, everybody loads up the gifts on the king and pretty much does whatever he says! (weakly) It's eight kinds of fun. No lie. Maurice gives a weak thumb-up. Skipper: (mock cheerfulness) I see. Well in that case, (serious) PASS! The animals attempt to leave, but Maurice stops them. Maurice: Listen to me. You don't understand this here situation. You want King Julien to be happy on his holiday. Huh. One time everyone forgot about King Julien Day, I tell you... Fade out and into a flashback.
