Back at the watering hole, Gloria was looking in an underground hole that Moto Moto went in to find the water. Katie and Brandon were there for Gloria to help.
"Any water?" Gloria asked the hole.
Moto Moto comes out of the hole by the ladder.
"No, just more diamonds and gold." Moto Moto said while giving Gloria the plate that has diamonds and gold.
Gloria throws it with the pile of diamonds and gold that it was there before. The animals said 'aww' in a sad mood like they still need water.
"Don't give up hope." Gloria said to the animals.
"There got to be any other way." Katie said.
"But where should we find the water in somehow?" Brandon asked.
"Listen up! I will help you! There's only one way to get your precious water. I, your beloved King Julien, must simply make a small sacrifice to my good friends, the water gods, in the volcano!" King Julien explained and threw his staff to the view of the volcano.
"What does that do?" Stephen asked.
"What does that do? Excellent question. My sacrifice goes into the volcano. The friendly gods eat up my sacrifice. "Thank you for the sacrifice. "Here, have another." "No, I've had enough." "I'll be insulted unless you have another." "I don't want another sacrifice, okay?!" "Look at you! You look skinny!" "No! I've had enough, ya clear!" King Julien said angrily as he shows off his sacrifice story.
The animals were silent for a moment before King Julien could finish explaining his story.
"The gods eat the sacrifice. They are grateful. They give me some water, and then I give it to you." King Julien said to finish his story.
"What?" Gloria asked.
"You can't be serious." Brandon said.
"Does it work?" A dik-dik asked.
"Is that true?" Katie asked.
"No! I mean, yes. Well, Maurice?" King Julien asked Maurice.
"Ah, it's fifty-fifty." Maurice answered.
The animals looked to each other and cheered.
"We'll do it!" A high voice shouted.
"Excellent!" King Julien shouted.
King Julien gets to the trunk of the elephant to use it as a microphone.
"Now all I need is someone who would like to go into the volcano and get eaten by gods. Any hands! Hands, anybody! I need someone, perhaps who has never found love, who could look death straight in the eyeball. A real, genuine hero." King Julien said as Melman thinks, and Moto Moto gets behind of Gloria.
"I'll do it." Melman said.
The animals looked at animals, including Gloria.
"Melman?" Gloria asked.
The animals cheered and carried Melman to the volcano.
"Hurry up! Before we all come to our senses!" King Julien shouted.
Gloria runs to Melman while the other animals follow along, too.
"Melman, what is wrong with you?" Gloria asked.
"I'm dying anyway. If there's a chance it'll get you water, it's worth it." Melman said.
"Are you nuts?" Gloria asked.
"I want you to know, back at the zoo, it was never the doctors or prescriptions that kept me going. It was always you. Seeing you every day. That's what kept me going." Melman explained, and Gloria stopped running.
The animals keep in running while carried Melman away.
"Melman! Wait!" Gloria shouted.
"Gloria, we are coming with you!" Brandon shouted.
Gloria turned around to see Katie and Brandon come to help Melman with Gloria.
"Melman! Melman! Melman!" The animal chanted while running to their way to the volcano.
