In this episode, Mafuta, the baby hippo, is in crisis. His pod has been taken over by a marauding male and his mother must take him far from the river. Kali, the lioness, tries to dig the warthogs out of the den, but the situation turns comical when the rest of the pride gets involved. Lions and warthogs run amok across the plains in a hunt with a surprising outcome. Will the warthogs come out on top, or is this a family Kali can finally be proud of? For everyone, the good times will soon be over as the dry season starts to take hold. The lake becomes a place of refuge not just for the thirsty herds, but also for Mafuta and his mother. Duma, the cheetah, takes the coalition to the lake to hunt. By finally working together they manage to catch a wildebeest but their efforts capture the attention of Zalika and the thieving hyenas. Things go from bad to worse, when the coalition discover a female cheetah and arguments break out on what they should do. They end up fighting among themselves as the female escapes. Duma decides he’s better off alone, but is it the right decision? As the herds move on and dust clouds fill the plains, Bakari leads his troop in search of better foraging. To reach it they must cross the shrinking river and risk a run-in with Magamba. But the far side is no safe haven, Bakari has taken them into the territory of another baboon troop, one the size of a small army. When all-out war threatens the survival of his troop, Bakari realises his last hope may lie with the elephants. On the plains Utani and his pup are foraging for delicacies when a hungry serval strikes – could he have taken Utani’s pup? Nalla is leading Kadogo and the herd on a live-saving mission; they are seeking water. She takes them to the lake, but when they arrive, she finds it is fast disappearing and the water unfit to drink. Nalla must call on all her wisdom to find a solution before it’s too late. As the warthogs wallow in the muddy pools that remain, Mafuta and his mother find sanctuary in the shrinking lake, but as more and more hippos join, their pool begins to turn into a quagmire. As the anxious hippos churn the slurry they find it harder and harder to move. They are fast becoming stuck in a trap of their own making. When it seems it can get no worse, the hippo bull that Mafuta had to flee from arrives. The hippos panic and Mafuta is caught in the muddy mayhem. Will he survive?
