Plot
At the start of the episode, Pumbaa watches a game show called "You Bet Your Tuhkus" with a lizard host named Mantis, who prefers to be called Sal. After two contestants are disqualified for cheating, Timon and Pumbaa are welcomed in the show and they're going to win the Tuhkus Trophy if they get the answers right.

Timon and Pumbaa are in "You Bet Your Tuhkus." Sal tells the two that he's going to give them easy questions and he gives the them a paper with the answers on them, which means that he's going to let them cheat. Pumbaa doesn't like that idea.

On the first round, Sal asks Timon and Pumbaa some questions, but the two get the answers wrong. Sal tells them that when one of them gets the answers wrong, bad things happen to their partner. Timon tries to talk Pumbaa into cheating in order to win the Tuhkus Trophy to make money, but the warthog refuses to do so.

On the second round, Sal announces a waterfall cliff that's going to take them to the trophy. Timon volunteers go on the cliff while Pumbaa answers the questions.

As soon as Timon is about to go to the trophy, he has to cross a bridge with pointy sticks under it. When it's time for a break, Sal tries to make Pumbaa cheat in order for Timon to survive the pointy sticks and Pumbaa agrees.

Timon sees what's going on with Sal and Pumbaa and the meerkat confronts the lizard about him forcing Pumbaa to cheat. Sal then makes the two try to cross the bridge.

Sal asks Timon and Pumbaa a question about the name of one of Beethoven's musics. Timon and Pumbaa get the answer right and they go to the Tuhkus Trophy. Pumbaa tells his friend that they should give the trophy to their fans and Timon gives it to Sal, who then falls and lands on the pointy sticks. Timon tells Pumbaa that friendship is more important than winning.
