In Madagascar: A Little Wild season 2 episode 6, titled "Pest Side Story," the gang is dealing with a pest problem. The lemurs have been invaded by cockroaches, and they recruit the help of the other animals to get rid of them.
The episode begins with the lemurs excitedly showing off their new treehouse to their friends. But as they enter, they are horrified to find it infested with cockroaches. The bugs have eaten all their food and taken over their home, leaving the lemurs feeling helpless and frustrated.
Fortunately, with the help of Melman the giraffe, Alex the lion, and Gloria the hippo, the gang comes up with a plan to get rid of the pests. They set up traps, use insect repellent, and even try to lure them out with food. But no matter what they do, the cockroaches seem to keep multiplying.
Just when it seems like all hope is lost, King Julien comes up with a genius idea. He suggests they bring in a natural predator to take care of the cockroaches: a pangolin. The pangolin, a scaly, ant-eating creature, is the perfect solution to their problem.
However, there's just one problem: the pangolin is terrified of the lemurs. They have to figure out a way to make him feel comfortable in their presence so he can do his job. Julien, being the charismatic leader that he is, decides to put on a musical production to win the pangolin over.
The rest of the episode follows the group as they put on a musical number inspired by West Side Story, with the lemurs playing the role of the Jets and the pangolin playing the role of the Sharks. They sing and dance their hearts out, and in the end, the pangolin agrees to help them out.
With the help of the pangolin, the gang is finally able to get rid of the cockroaches and reclaim their treehouse. The episode ends on a high note, with the gang celebrating their victory and enjoying the peace and quiet of their bug-free home.
Overall, "Pest Side Story" is a fun and entertaining episode that teaches kids about problem-solving, teamwork, and creativity in the face of adversity. It's a great addition to the already excellent Madagascar: A Little Wild series and is sure to delight kids and adults alike.
