The camera pans forward to the branch and carves into the title "Tarzan." Thunder crashes as the scene flashes into a baby boy and his mother Alice Clayton on the lifeboat. The camera pans down to a father John Clayton II who pulls the lifeboat down. The wood cracks and falls on John. A lifeboat lands on water then Alice gasps. John dives into the water, surfaces and swims to the lifeboat. Alice grabs John onboard as he pants. Alice and John hug after they grin. They look at their son as he chuckles. Thunder rumbles and they see the jungle. John rows to the shore as the ship sinks. The lightning crashes to a jungle where the gorillas live in their nests and the scene fades up to Kerchak, Kala and their newborn son Akut as he tries to grab a chameleion and falls off then Kerchak rescues him. The scene fades up to the shore in the morning with footsteps and the camera pans up to John and Alice who walk to find the perfect place then the baby points to the tree as his parents see it. The scene cuts to a tree then cuts back to John who pets his son and smiles. The scene fades to Kerchak who grins as Akut pounds his chest and plays with him. He runs to Kala as she pets him and throws him in the air. The baby falls and Alice hugs him. A montage of Alice and John who build a tree house then fades to a finished treehouse. The scene fades to the sun and the moon and an animal named Sabor who makes a low growl sound. The scene fades to the gorillas who sleep in their nests at night. The camera cuts to Kala and Kerchak who fall asleep as a red-eyed tree frog lands on their nest and croaks.

The scene cuts to Kala who runs to the tree house while she hears the cries of a baby then she arrives at the treehouse. The song ends and the scene fades up to the treehouse as Kala opens the door and looks around the treehouse then she sniffs. She enters the treehouse and looks at the broken window as the wind blows and the gun as a faint gunshot is heard. She sees John and Alice who are killed by Sabor. Kala gibbers frightenedly and sees a picture of John and Alice who carry a baby. A baby cries and Kala gasps. Kala walks to the baby's bed then she sees a baby in the blanket while it fusses. Kala takes the blanket then the baby stops to fuss. Kala and the baby look at each other. She sniffs and the baby sneezes and coughs. The baby babbles and squeals. Kala grabs the baby by the leg and looks at it. The baby coos and Kala smells the bottom and grunts. A baby makes a bubble then Kala pops it. The baby shoves his hands in Kala's nose then she grunts. The baby puts his hand on Kala's hand. Kala grins and carries him. The baby yawns and holds Kala. Kala closes her eyes. The tail wiggles then Kala sniffs. The scene cuts to Sabor who growls then Kala gasps. Sabor chases Kala. The scene cuts to the treehouse as the wall busts a hole then Kala and Sabor fall on the tent. Sabor tries to kill Kala as she holds its neck. Sabor punches Kala's face as the baby falls on the net. Kala gasps and Sabor growls then lands on the net. She sees the baby who rolls all the way next to the pole. The baby chuckles and Kala gasps. Sabor growls as he is about to kill the baby. Kala reaches for it and gasps. Sabor jumps and makes the baby throw in the air then Kala puts her finger on the baby's diaper. Kala sighs and realizes it is stuck then figures out and slides then she carries him. Sabor growls and breaks the floor. Kala sees the lifeboat. Sabor jumps out and Kala jumps on the lifeboat while she carries the baby. The lifeboat goes down and the rope captures Sabor by the leg and the lifeboat stops. Sabor growls while he's captured. Kala hops off the lifeboat, looks at Sabor, growls and returns to the apes while she carries the baby while the song plays "Two Worlds Reprise" by Phil Collins then the song ends. The scene fades to the gorillas in the jungle.)''

Baby Akut: Papa, look! Look over there!

Gorilla 1: Kala.

Gorilla 2: She's back.

(Gorillas walk to Kala then Kerchak sighs.)

Gorilla 3: Are you all right, Kala?

Kala: I'm fine. No, really, honestly, it's just that I got a little bit... sidetracked.

(Gorillas gasp and see the baby.)

Gorilla 4: Well, isn't that, uh... Well, so...

Gorilla 5: Why, it's just so... So...

Baby Terk: That's freaky-looking, okay? That's what it is.

Terk's Mother: Terkina!

Baby Terk: Well, it is! I mean, what the hell is it, anyway?

Kala: (Chuckles) He's a baby.

Baby Terk: (While he holds the baby) Well, ah! I can't... (The baby touches her hair) So, uh... So, where's his mama?

Kala: Well, I'm going to be his mother now.

(The baby babbles as Kerchak walks to it while Akut rides on his shoulder.)

Baby Terk: You know, he's not that bad once you get used to him. (Sees Kerchak and chuckles) Kala's gonna be his mama now. (Runs to his mother)

(Kerchak grunts, smells the baby and sneezes then the baby giggles.)

Kala: Kerchak, I saved him from Sabor.

Kerchak: Kala, you know we won't just have to adopt humans.

Kala: I know that, but he's a baby.

Kerchak: (Grunts, stammers) But... Kala, look at it. It smells different. (Sighs) No, you have to take it back.

Kala: Take him back? But he'll die.

Kerchak: If the jungle wants him...

Kala: I want him.

Kerchak: Kala, I cannot let you put our family in danger.

Kala: Does he look dangerous to you?

(Kerchak roars and pounds his chest. A gorilla mother gasps and hides the baby. The baby cries a bit and fusses then stops. Kerchak grunts softly.)

Kerchak: Was it alone?

Kala: Yes. Sabor killed his family.

Kerchak: Are you sure?

Kala: Yes, there are no others.

Kerchak: (Sighs) Then you may keep him.

Kala: Kerchak, I know he'll be a good son.

Kerchak: I said he could stay. That would make Akut his brother. (The baby fusses) We will nest here for the night.

Baby Terk: So, uh, whatcha gonna call it?

Kala: I'm gonna call him Tarzan.

Baby Terk: Tarzan? Okay, he's your baby.

Terk's Mother: All right, little lady. Come on. (Lifts baby Terk up and takes her to the nest) It's way past your nest time.

Baby Terk: Oh, Mom.

Terk's Mother: No.

Baby Terk: Five more minutes?

Terk's Mother: No.

Baby Terk: Two more minutes?

Terk's Mother: No.

Baby Terk: One more minute?

(Kala puts baby Tarzan on the shoulder and walks. Baby Tarzan falls and lands on Kala's hand as she gasps. Baby Tarzan starts to cry.)

Kala: Oh. Oh, no. (Shushing) Don't cry. I'm here. Come on, come on. (Singing) Come stop your crying, it'll be all right

Just take my hand, hold it tight

I will protect you from all around you.

I will be here don't you cry

(The song plays "You'll Be in My Heart" by Phil Collins as the scene fades to night as Kala walks to the tree and takes the leaves off the vines. Baby Tarzan laughs and a butterfly lands on his face and babbles. The scene cuts to Kerchak who secures the gorillas where they sleep in their nests then fades to Kala who sleeps with baby Tarzan and the song ends.)

Kala: (Spoken, whispers) Always.

(The scene fades to the flowers as the sun beams awaken the flowers then fades to Kala who wakes up and yawns as she finds Tarzan.)

Kala: (Gasps) Tarzan. Tarzan?

(Tarzan makes an elephant sound and Kala yelps then she sees him who is now young.)

Young Tarzan: I sure scared you, mom.

Kala: Well, you sure did. Can't you just mimic any quieter animals?

Young Tarzan: Oh, mom, they're no fun. Wanna see me be a leopard? (Growls)

Kala: (Scoffs) Why don't you just come up with your own sound?

(Young Tarzan gibbers and makes silly noises while he plays then the three young gorillas make silly noises.)

Gorilla Mothers: Kala!

(The scene cuts to young Tarzan who continues to make silly noises then he bumps into Akut who is now young.)

Young Tarzan: Oh. Hi, Akut. Have we met before?

Young Akut: Actually, no.

Young Tarzan: Oh. (Chuckles awkwardly)

Young Terk: Tarzan! Thank God you're all right. Kala and I have been so worried! (Cries) Thank you. Thank you so much for finding him, Kerchak. You are such a wise and carrying leader. (Whispers to Tarzan) Run.

(Young Terk scurries as young Tarzan falls and grunts. Young Tarzan rises and scurries then young Terk grabs him.)

Young Terk: Hello. Are you out of your mind?

Young Tarzan: What?

Young Terk: How many times do I have to tell you? If you want Kerchak to like you, stay away from him.

Young Flint: (Laughing) Come on, Terk! Step on it!

Young Mongo: Last one there is a dung beetle!

Young Terk: Yeah, well, someone's first gonna eat it! (Laughing)

Young Tarzan​​​​​​​: Terk, can I come?

Young Terk: Well, yeah, you could if you could keep up, but... you can't really keep up. (Runs to Flint and Mongo) Wait up, boys! Wait up! Right behind ya!
