Swiss Missed

"Swiss Missed" is an episode from The Lion King's Timon & Pumbaa. It is also one of the episodes in Dining Out with Timon & Pumbaa.

Synopsis
When a much-loved clock breaks down whilst the respected timekeeper is away, thanks to Timon's "Hakuna Matata" lectures, Timon and Pumbaa resolve to track him down to fix it before rival timekeeper Clockwork Quint has him fired and ruined.

Plot
"Swiss Missed" begins by introducing Timon, a meerkat, and Pumbaa, a warthog. The episode starts with Timon and Pumbaa eating "chocolate covered grubs" at a Swiss village. After Timon tells Pumbaa what he's going to do with his favorite chocolate, the truffle, the clock rings and a lot of people are passing by Timon and Pumbaa. Timon wonders why everyone is in such a hurry and Pumbaa tells him that they probably have important jobs to carrying responsibility. Timon tells him that the people need to have a Hakuna Matata life. Then a timekeeper named Fronk opens the window and sees that it's time to check the clock. Pumbaa tells Timon that Fronk "directly affected Timon by making his special favorite truffle." Timon agrees with Pumbaa and goes up the ladder to persuade Fronk into taking a break from his job.

Fronk tells Timon and Pumbaa that he needs to keep working to carry responsibility, but Timon tells him that he needs to live a Hakuna Matata lifestyle. The meerkat changes the timekeeper's clothes, messes up his hair, puts sunglasses on him, and tells him that he can kiss a girl. Fronk then agrees that he needs to relax and he goes skiing. When Fronk leaves, the clock breaks and a clock inspector, Clockwork Quint, shows up and tells Timon and Pumbaa that Fronk needs to fix the clock by noon or he's fired.

Later, Timon and Pumbaa go skiing to find Fronk. When the two run into Fronk, the timekeeper tells the two that he thanks them for making him take a break from his work, and he introduces them to his girlfriend, which makes it hard for Timon and Pumbaa to tell him about the clock. But then, Pumbaa tells Timon, in front of Fronk, that the meerkat wanted to tell the timekeeper that the clock broke. Fronk gets shocked at what he heard and the four ski back to the village. When they get to the clock, it seems that there is too much to fix and Fronk says that there is no way he can fix the clock by noon and he blames Timon for that. Pumbaa, however, gets an idea. It's now noon and Clockwork Quint shows up hoping that the clock is not fixed so that he can be the timekeeper instead of Fronk. Timon and Pumbaa trick Quint into thinking the clock is fixed and Quint gets mad and walks away.

Quotes
Fronk: My clock. Oh, there's no way I could fix it by noon. (to Timon) It's all you and your Hakuna Matata's fault.

Timon: Hey Fronk, blue eyes, don't look at us, you only got yourself to blame. What mook would leave a tempo-machinery like this to pick up on ski bunnies? This clock has a history. Doesn't that mean anything to you?

(Fronk gets angry and grabs Timon)

Pumbaa: Wait one minute!

Timon: Which is about how long we have left to live.

Pumbaa: I got an idea.
