Plot
"My Meteor, My Friend" begins by introducing Timon, a meerkat, and Pumbaa, a warthog. The episode starts with Pumbaa scratching Timon's back. Pumbaa now wants Timon to scratch his back, but the meerkat is too lazy to do so. Timon and Pumbaa climb to the top of a hill because Rafiki told them that there's going to be a meteor shower. While waiting for the meteors, Pumbaa complains to Timon about him doing everything for the meerkat, but Timon not doing anything for him.
Timon then makes Pumbaa go get bugs for him. As Pumbaa is about to do so, one of the meteors goes to the warthog. Pumbaa befriends the meteor and names it Rocky. After Pumbaa talks to Rocky about how better of a friend it is than Timon, Timon becomes jealous and decides to find a new bestest best friend.
First Timon tries to befriend a parrot, but it doesn't work out. The meerkat then tries to befriend a leopard, but it doesn't work out either. Meanwhile, Pumbaa hangs out with Rocky but then starts to miss Timon.
Later, after the leopard gives Timon a painful back scratch, the meerkat gets chased by the leopard. After Timon comes to a dead end, Pumbaa finds the two and throws Rocky at the leopard, allowing the meekat to escape. Timon apologizes to Pumbaa about him making the warthog do everything for him. The meerkat then gives Pumbaa a long-awaited back scratch. Meanwhile, the leopard befriends Rocky.
