==Plot==
 
"Why No Rhino" begins by introducing Timon, a [[meerkat]], and Pumbaa, a [[warthog]]. At the start of the episode, Pumbaa writes a letter to some people who would like to go on a safari. A rich couple, Eleanor and Julian Dewberry, arrive to the jungle. The couple want to see a Blue Rhino.
 
   
Timon and Pumbaa see that there are no Blue Rhinos in the jungle and Timon suggests that if the couple find another animal that they would like to see, they will give them money. Timon and Pumbaa guide the couple to see a Blue Rhino. The couple see that there is no Blue Rhino and they want Timon to give them their money back.
+
While the Duberrys are relaxing, Timon and Pumbaa have a hard time finding a blue rhino as it is proven to be very rare. Timon tells Pumbaa that they don’t have to give people what they want, they should show them what they have and convince them they want it.
   
  +
[[File:WNR Timon & Pumbaa18.png|thumb|left|250px|Timon decides to dress up as different animals for the Duberrys.]]
Eleanor tells Timon that if they don't find the Blue Rhino later on, the meerkat must return the money to them. In order to keep the money, Timon decides for him and Pumbaa to disguise themselves as other animals, but Pumbaa refuses to do so. So only Timon will dress up.
 
   
  +
The next morning, Timon and Pumbaa attempt to show the Duberrys the glory of the Serengeti. However, the couple is not satisfied and force the duo to give them their money back. But Timon tells them that giving money back is not their policy. The [[meerkat]] then realizes that Pumbaa did not remove the “giving back money” part in their ad when he told him to do so. The reason Pumbaa did not do so is that he realizes that it would be unfair to the customers and not giving back their money would not make them happy. Eleanor tells Timon that if they don’t show them anything productive the next day, he will be forced to give them back their blank check.
Timon brings the couple over and pretends to be a bird, a crocodile, and a giraffe. But the couple just want to see a Blue Rhino.
 
   
  +
[[File:WNR Timon & Pumbaa25.png|thumb|250px|Timon explains to Pumbaa why being rich is so important to him.]]
Timon makes Pumbaa pretend to be the Blue Rhino and he brings the couple over to take pictures. Things are going well until a real Blue Rhino shows up and is about to attack Timon and Pumbaa. The couple takes a picture of that.
 
   
  +
The next day, Timon decides to disguise as different animals, but Pumbaa refuses to do so, saying that he will not try to fool the Duberrys just to keep their blank check and that the money will be tainted. Therefore, Timon decides to do his scheme on his own.
The couple shows some other people a slideshow of Timon, Pumbaa, and the Blue Rhino.

When Timon brings the Duberrys to them, he tells them that Pumbaa is standing guard in case something bad happens. The meerkat dresses up as a cockatoo, a [[crocodile]], and a [[giraffe]]. The Duberrys are not impressed and state that they are only on the safari for the big blue rhino. Eleanor tells Pumbaa that if Timon does not show them the rhino, they are leaving with their check.

Hearing what Eleanor just said, Timon talks to Pumbaa about how important it is for him to become rich, telling his friend what he can do with all the money and that he needs his help with the blue rhino. He then tells Pumbaa that the plan is not just for himself, it is also to keep Eleanor happy as she would see the blue rhino she and her husband have drove all the way to the Serengeti for. Timon then removes Pumbaa’s tusks to make them look like horns and tells his friend to think like a blue rhino while he gets the Duberrys.

When Timon brings in the couple, Pumbaa has disguised himself as a blue rhino. Although, while the couple takes a picture, a real blue rhino shows up behind Pumbaa and Timon tries to warn his friend. When Pumbaa sees the rhino and freaks out, Eleanor takes a screenshot of it.

The scene then cuts to the Duberrys talking about their safari experience to the people in their home. They then show them three of the pictures they took of Timon, Pumbaa, and the blue rhino, with everyone applauding at the end.
