1
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,120
NARRATOR: Exiled queens fight
for their family's survival.

2
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,960
Dikeledi readies
her cubs for battle.

3
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,520
As one princess
begins her training,

4
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,800
another has the throne
firmly in her sights.

5
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,560
The young hold
the key to power.

6
00:00:46,480 --> 00:00:50,040
The Savage Kingdom is
yours for the taking.

7
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,600
Trapped by the flood.

8
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:29,120
Dikeledi is forced to raise
her three cubs in a war zone.

9
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,280
The water's retreat means
escape might soon be possible.

10
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,400
But this harrowing journey

11
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,560
will demand the cubs
pull their weight.

12
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,240
Time for a test.

13
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,920
Remember all
you've been taught.

14
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,160
Tsepo is a natural leader.

15
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,680
But this is one tough piglet.

16
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,560
Dikeledi is not impressed.

17
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,040
This is not a game.

18
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,840
Don't let him get away.

19
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,760
That's enough.

20
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,080
Stand aside.

21
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,080
It won't even feed four.

22
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,680
It's a waste of time.

23
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:53,160
Dikeledi's cubs
are far from ready.

24
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:06,720
In a kingdom ruled by tyrants,
there are no second chances.

25
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:21,960
Commander Mmamotse rules the
heartlands with an iron grip.

26
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,680
With numbers on her side,

27
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,560
she and her rotten
army run rampant.

28
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:43,160
Now Mmamotse's only
concern is her own legacy.

29
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,440
Her son will never be
more than a foot soldier.

30
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,560
Her clan's future
rests with her daughter.

31
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,080
One day Lasedi
will be commander.

32
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,000
But the entitled
princess better step up,

33
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:18,080
or all of Mmamotse's
efforts will be in vain.

34
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,640
Sega also has her
eye on the kingdom.

35
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:41,040
She's determined
to rise to power.

36
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,320
She and the Matahta pride
are growing their own army,

37
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,960
but sons outnumber daughters.

38
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,360
All males eventually leave.

39
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,080
Only daughters stay and fight.

40
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,960
They are the
warriors she needs.

41
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:27,040
Sega is playing the long game.

42
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,280
Her chance to take
the throne will come.

43
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,840
Across the kingdom,
new lives flourish.

44
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,040
But even they are
shown no mercy.

45
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,760
Pula maintains her high
standing in the forest.

46
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,840
To keep it, she
seizes every opportunity.

47
00:09:16,680 --> 00:09:23,160
For some life is
brutally short.

48
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,200
Pula has no time
for sentiment.

49
00:09:55,680 --> 00:10:00,000
One life feeds another.

50
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:09,080
Motshidi could one day
inherit this bountiful forest.

51
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,200
But Pula is growing old,

52
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:18,200
and it takes time to
raise a perfect assassin.

53
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,000
News of death travels fast.

54
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,040
The Matahta pride
is in for the feast.

55
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,080
Why pass up an easy meal?

56
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,840
Pula must protect Motshidi.

57
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,040
Right, into the trees now.

58
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,160
A leopard killed
one of Sega's cubs.

59
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:58,120
She will seize any
chance to take revenge.

60
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,200
NARRATOR: Pula knows
the Matahta pride could

61
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,080
end her legacy.

62
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,040
Don't move a muscle.

63
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,000
Don't even breathe.

64
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,120
She evades the lions.

65
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,160
For now.

66
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,120
But it's a terrifying
reminder just how

67
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,680
vulnerable Motshidi is.

68
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:19,400
Enjoy these moments of
peace my little one.

69
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,000
Your real training
will soon begin.

70
00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:46,560
Mmamotse's heirs join
the marauding horde.

71
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,720
This is Lasedi's
first time at the front.

72
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,040
Everyone in this army
is out for themselves.

73
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,000
The princess is nervous.

74
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,120
And she's not big
enough to fight yet.

75
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:37,640
Mmamotse is not known for
patience or compassion.

76
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,000
Her daughter
will one day rule.

77
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:51,040
Lasedi must stand up and
take what's rightfully hers.

78
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,360
Exiled to the
edge of the flood,

79
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:14,080
Ramogata and the
Western pride are desperate.

80
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:23,440
They haven't killed in days.

81
00:15:55,240 --> 00:16:01,280
Their cubs are
impatient, hungry.

82
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,840
It will be a while before
they catch their own dinner.

83
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:27,400
Until then their
providers must provide.

84
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:43,280
One lioness
boldly does her duty.

85
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,400
But she finds herself in
a dangerous neighborhood.

86
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,480
This is Matahta
pride territory.

87
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,800
A Western pride
female will never

88
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,720
be welcome at their table.

89
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:58,400
But desperation
drives her forward.

90
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,600
She's come too far,
and is spotted.

91
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:20,360
Sega does not
tolerate uninvited guests.

92
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,080
The penalty will be blood.

93
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,800
NARRATOR:
Territory is everything,

94
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:48,440
and Sega will defend what
she has left to the death.

95
00:19:34,120 --> 00:19:38,800
Sega is protecting
more than just a meal.

96
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:05,720
Hidden away even
from her own sisters,

97
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,400
two newborns.

98
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:28,000
Two future soldiers
to add to her army.

99
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,560
She will dutifully
feed and nurture them.

100
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,440
But they are both just sons.

101
00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:53,120
Useless for her
long term plans.

102
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:07,680
Sega's dreams of power
are on hold, for now.

103
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:29,280
An assassin's blood runs deep.

104
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,760
Motshidi just
needs to harness it.

105
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:59,480
Pula is a wise and experienced
teacher but has to work hard.

106
00:22:18,120 --> 00:22:22,120
Months of play will
hone Motshidi's skills.

107
00:22:48,360 --> 00:22:52,240
Their every move
is being watched.

108
00:23:03,120 --> 00:23:07,080
Motshidi's father,
Blue Eyes, is back.

109
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:23,120
With her legacy at stake, Pula
knows he cannot be trusted.

110
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,000
He has a taste for young blood

111
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,120
and a leopard never
changes its spots.

112
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,560
NARRATOR: Blue Eyes
won't think twice about

113
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,200
killing his own daughter.

114
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:59,120
But right now, he
lusts for Pula.

115
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,040
She must keep Blue Eyes
away from her daughter.

116
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,040
Motshidi is
oblivious to the danger.

117
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:28,840
Pula's young assassin is not
yet ready for the real world.

118
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,960
The shifting seasons drive
a fortune right towards

119
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,920
the Western pride.

120
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,920
The flood brings with
it unexpected gifts.

121
00:25:08,120 --> 00:25:12,360
But these beasts are
far from easy pickings.

122
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,400
Water makes hunting difficult.

123
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:30,160
But one brave queen won't
let this opportunity pass.

124
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,680
Beaten to the punch.

125
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,360
She's out of her depth.

126
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,360
No grip on power is forever.

127
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,120
But the others will
not take the risk.

128
00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:12,880
The queen is still
determined to make a kill.

129
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:26,040
One of these could
keep us going for days.

130
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,160
A reward will be worth it.

131
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:22,000
Without back up she
never stood a chance.

132
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,120
Dikeledi is used to
fending for herself.

133
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,800
But with three cubs,
life's relentless.

134
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:18,000
Let's do this together.

135
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,760
Dikeledi will lead.

136
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,000
No mistakes.

137
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,680
Tsepo targets a young victim.

138
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,800
His instincts are flawless.

139
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,840
But he needs help
to bring it down.

140
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,080
Help your brother.

141
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,320
Their own kill.

142
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,000
At last.

143
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,840
Finally the cubs
prove their worth.

144
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,320
But are they ready for the
challenges that lie ahead?

145
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,880
NARRATOR: Pula is
an elite hunter.

146
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:55,080
But Motshidi's
hunger is insatiable.

147
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:01,320
Her constant demands
are taking their toll.

148
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,080
With thieves everywhere,

149
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,040
a prize like this must
be kept out of reach.

150
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,680
But each step is
getting harder.

151
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:42,240
Motshidi isn't used
to waiting her turn.

152
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:52,600
But she must be taught.

153
00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:01,160
Her first taste of tough love.

154
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,880
Pula doesn't have the
resolve to see it through.

155
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,400
After all
Motshidi is the future.

156
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,840
She is all that matters now.

157
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,000
Weak and exhausted,

158
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,200
Pula's time is running out.

159
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:51,120
Her cub must
become independent,

160
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:57,280
and fast, or
she'll never survive.

161
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:12,000
Motshidi is still so naiïve,

162
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,320
she'd be lost
without her mother.

163
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:22,120
She needs more time to
learn the dangers of the run,

164
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:27,080
before she can face the
Savage Kingdom alone.

165
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:47,560
The Western pride is
struggling to make ends meet.

166
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:56,360
The marsh is drying out,
and the buffalo are gone.

167
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:05,160
Always hungry, tempers flare.

168
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:25,760
The last thing they
need is competition.

169
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,400
The cheetahs are
in the wrong place,

170
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:41,760
at the wrong time.

171
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,840
If they're caught in
Western Pride territory,

172
00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:00,200
they will be killed.

173
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:31,160
Tsepo takes a wrong
turn and is singled out.

174
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,640
His mother can't help him now.

175
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:11,000
You can run but
you can't hide.

176
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,400
I'll be waiting.

177
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:31,480
Dikeledi and two
cubs make it to safety.

178
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,120
But without Tsepo.

179
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,240
Her calls go unanswered.

180
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,360
Staying is a risk
to all their lives.

181
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:57,040
But Dikeledi won't
leave without her son.

182
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,200
Tsepo is all alone

183
00:38:02,240 --> 00:38:05,760
on the other side of
the Western pride.

184
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,520
The night is dark
and full of terrors.

185
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,920
NARRATOR: Stranded
in the darkness,

186
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,000
surrounded by lions,

187
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:41,080
Tsepo hears his mother's calls.

188
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,520
But if he blows his
cover, the pride will attack.

189
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,160
Dawn brings death.

190
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,040
And a gift for
Princess Lasedi.

191
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:35,160
She will stake her
claim to this kill.

192
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:51,400
Flexing her royal muscles,

193
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,560
even if they are
just dirty birds.

194
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,840
This feels good.

195
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,840
Everyone will fear me
when I'm in charge.

196
00:40:30,720 --> 00:40:34,120
Tsepo survives the night.

197
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,720
But a wall of lions
still stands between

198
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:50,040
him and his family.

199
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,960
Now he must run the gauntlet.

200
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:25,000
Any mistakes this time
will mean certain death.

201
00:41:48,720 --> 00:41:53,000
His speed is all he has.

202
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,960
But speed is all he needs.

203
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,800
Tsepo escapes with his life.

204
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:18,120
But his mother is
nowhere to be seen.

205
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:40,320
Dikeledi was right not
to leave without him.

206
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,920
On the edge of this
terrible kingdom,

207
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:12,880
the family is reunited.

208
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:28,600
Dikeledi has looked death
in the face too many times.

209
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,080
But finally her
cubs have come of age.

210
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:54,120
Now her young family
can make their escape,

211
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,320
victorious,

212
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,720
survivors of the
Savage Kingdom.

213
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,000
