[Bagheera and Mowgli settle down for the night on a branch of a tree.]

Mowgli:
I'm not afraid, I can----I can look after myself.

[Kaa then appears from the leaves, he smacks his lips when noticing Mowgli, looks towards Bagheera to see him sleeping. He then approaches Mowgli.]

Kaa:
S-ss-say now! [Mowgli looks up unimpressed, scowls at Kaa, and then sticks his tongue out at him.] What have we here? [chuckles] It's a Man-cub, a deeliss-ss-see-aws-ss-s Man-cub.

Mowgli:
[angrily Pushing Kaa away.] Oh, go away and leave me alone.

Bagheera:
[sleeping] That's what I should do, but I'm not. Now, now, now please go to sleep, Man-cub!

[Kaa nods his head in agreement and begins to hypnotize Mowgli.]

Kaa:
Yes-ss-s, Man-cub. [singing] Please go to sleep. Please go to sleep. [sings this as tuned from "Rock-a-Bye Baby"] Sleep little Man-cub, res-ss-st in peas-ss-se.

[Kaa begins to wrap his coils around a hypnotized Mowgli.]

Kaa:
S-SS-Sleep. S-SS-Sleep.

Mowgli:
[moaning] Ba-Ba-Ba-Bagheer--?

[Kaa wraps his tail tightly around Mowgli's throat, choking Mowgli. Bagheera still unaware at what's happening.]

Bagheera:
[sleeping] Oh, now, look, there's no use arguing anymore. Now, no more talk till morning.

[Kaa now completely has a fully hypnotized (and smiling) Mowgli wrapped around his coils.]

Kaa:
[chuckles] He won't be here in the morning.

Bagheera:
[glances at Mowgli and Kaa] Huh? Oh, yes, he will-- [suddenly realizes what is happening and fully wakes up] Kaa?! KAA!!!! HOLD IT, KAA!!!!

[just before Kaa is about to eat Mowgli, Bagheera angrily slaps Kaa's head onto another tree branch, and Kaa bangs his head on it. This makes Mowgli fully conscious and released from Kaa's coils.]

Kaa:
Ooooh, my s-ss-sinus-ss-s! [frowns at Bagheera and moves forward to him] You have just made a s-ss-serious-ss-s mis-ss-stake, my friend. A very, stupid--

Bagheera:
[laughs nervously] Now, look, Kaa, I was--

Kaa:
--mis-ss-stake! Look me in the eye when I'm s-ss-speaking to you! [begins to hypnotize Bagheera]

Bagheera:
Please, Kaa.... [looks Kaa in his left eye]

Kaa:
BOTH eyes, if you pleas-ss-se! [hypnotizes the panther, and now Baggie is fully hypnotized and smiling] You have jus-ss-st s-ss-sealed your doom. [Mowgli, awaken from Kaa's evil spell, pushes the dastardly snake's coils with his feet that causes him to comically fall from the tree] Ooooh.

Mowgli:
Look, Bagheera! [points at Kaa] Look. Bagheera! Wake up, Bagheera! [wakes Baggie up by smacking his both cheeks with his bare hands from Kaa's evil spell]

Bagheera:
[wakes up] Uh, duh, wha--?

Kaa:
[crawling away, angrily] Jus-ss-st you wait till I get you in my coils! [suddenly stops because a knot on his tail gets stuck between a couple bamboo stems]

Mowgli:
[playfully] Look, Bagheera! He's got a knot on his tail.

Kaa:
[mimics Mowgli, sarcastically] Hee-hee-hee-he's got a knot on his tail. [frees his tail, but that causes his whole coils to look like an accordion, then Kaa slithers away now with his bent coils] Ooooh, this-ss-s will s-ss-slow down my s-ss-slithering. [Mowgli laughs playfully]

Bagheera:
[smirks] So, you could look out for yourself, can you? [then smiles] So, you wanna stay in the jungle, do ya?

Mowgli:
Yes. [frowns] I wanna stay in the jungle!

Bagheera:
[annoyed] D'oh! Now, for the last time.... [snaps and both half-smirks (on the right) and half-smiles (on the left)] ....GO TO SLEEP!!!! [Mowgli pouts as he tries to get some sleep] Man-cub, heh! Man-cub. [They finally go to sleep and settle down for the night]
