Like the lions, I have no clue what the turtle(s) is/are thinking.

All I could think was that the turtle was like, “hey, buddy, me and my family need this water. It’s our home. Could you reign it in a bit? No need to go on a drinking binge.”

Also, it looked like the lion and lioness had recently fed, so maybe the turtle was trying to nibble at some “beard scraps.” No judgement here. It’s a jungle out there.

the turtle probably thought the lapping tongues were edible.

Slurpy: I don’t want the luzz! I only want the slurps! (Walks off.)

Gamera: You’ll be back.

That was my thought. I kept waiting for a turtle to get a bit bite o’ lion tongue, but it never really happened. Although it kind of looked like it tried at 2:13.

Listen you little squirt, I’m going to bite your head off.

Oh, yes, bite my head off. Do it dirty, you filthy animal! Lick me and bite my head off!

Jesus Christ, this pervy turtle is too much for me at this time of the morning…

I know that the lion is the king of the jungle, so he can reign it in or out as much as he likes, but the turtle needs him to rein it in (even though he is not a horse, either).

No big deal. The lions were just humoring poor ol’ Mitch McConnell.

Hmmm, for the not-faint-of-heart, there’s a banned word at 2:38. And it ain’t “Bint”.
