1The Jungle Book1989-10-0925 minMowgli is the infant son of a scientist who embarks upon a research mission in the jungle. While his parents are busy, Mowgli, so young he can barely walk, wanders off into the jungle where he is stalked by a hungry tiger, Shere Khan. Fortunately, Baloo the bear, Bagheera the panther, and Kaa the python defend the infant boy. In the end, Mowgli is taken in by two wolves, Luri, and Alexander, who wish to adopt him. The rest of the pack opposes the idea, however Bagheera, who has witnessed the death of Mowgli’s parents in the meantime, feels responsible, and so offers a freshly killed buffalo…2The Birth Of The Wolf-Boy Mowgli1989-10-0925 minMowgli has a serious problem: he cannot run as fast as his brother wolves, and has no claws or fangs with which to hunt. Teased continuously by Lala, a young she-wolf in his pack, he challenges her to a test of skill. During the contest, Mowgli discovers an effective way to catch his prey, and then saves Lala from Shere Khan, finally earning himself the pack's respect.3Alexander’s Son1989-10-1625 minMowgli is desperate because Lala has hidden his new weapon, a boomerang he refers to as his "Fang". Demoralized by the difficulties he encounters while trying to find a replacement, the boy returns to his memories of the good old days when his father had taught him some basic hunting skills. Mowgli is determined to fulfill his father’s wishes: he will become such a proficient hunter that he will be able to kill Shere Khan who has been responsible for Alexander’s death.4The Jungle Law1989-10-2325 minSome aspects of the jungle life are incomprehensible to Mowgli. Akru and Sura are inexplicably thrown out of their home by their mother; during the hunt, Akela insists on choosing the most difficult prey, and when Mowgli is injured, Tabaqui, the hyena, tries to kill him. However, things become easier for Mowgli to accept after Baloo and Bagheera explain the reasoning behind the tough law of the jungle.5The New Friends1989-10-3025 minLife in the jungle is easier for those who have good friends. Encouraged by Baloo and Baghera’s lessons, our young hero then makes friends with Kichi, a young panda, after rescuing him from Shere Khan’s clutches.6Solitary Kichi1989-11-0625 minKichi wants to spend all his time with Mowgli and his friends, but unfortunately, this desire often gets him into trouble. The panda becomes easy prey for the monkeys who use him as a bait to snare Mowgli. After a tumultuous turn of events, the boy and the young panda renew their friendship and, together, manage to get the better of the terrible Shere Khan. Shere Khan climbs out of the water and angrily vows revenge.7The Cold Fang1989-11-1325 minSometimes Mowgli does not heed Baloo’s teachings concerning the law of the jungle. When Mowgli refuses to learn his lesson, the bear loses his patience and slaps the boy with his paw. Mowgli gets angry and runs away. Deeply resentful, Mowgli then does exactly the opposite of what he has been taught, and, as Baloo has feared, falls into the terrible trap of the iron teeth.8Sorry Baloo1989-11-2025 minMowgli has been trapped by the iron teeth. While he struggles to free himself, a giant crocodile lumbers out of the river and heads in his direction. Luckily, Baloo shows up in time and engages the fearsome reptile in a fight to the death. Mowgli is carried to safety by Baghera, but the boy is distraught because he realizes that a friend has died in order to rescue him. But, as it happens, a happy ending is destined when Kaa discovers Baloo hiding down by the river and tells Mowgli, affording him the opportunity to make up with the bear.9More Precious Than The Law1989-11-2725 minAkru breaks the law of the pack, places Mowgli in great danger, and is then severely injured while trying to save him. Because the young wolf has committed a serious crime, his companions are not allowed to help him, and he is banished from the pack. However, Mowgli refuses to accept this harsh law, and thus sets out to find the enchanted flower that is the only remedy for the wolf’s injuries.10The Lone Wolf Visitor1989-12-0425 minTimes are hard for our jungle friends; the lack of prey grows greater every day, and the threat of starvation becomes more and more real. In the meantime, an old, solitary wolf named Fargas appears and claims to have been a good friend of Alexander’s. He proceeds to save Mowgli from an oncoming buffalo such that Mowgli accepts the newcomer unconditionally, but Bagheera is suspicious of him. One night while the pack is out hunting, its precious reserves of food are looted. Akela is quick to blame Bacchus, and gives him a stiff punishment, however Mowgli is determined to prove the wolf’s…11The Devil In The Mind1989-12-1125 minMowgli and Bacchus are accused of stealing the reserves of food. However, they are then defended by Bagheera who blames the thievery on an evil spirit that appears during times of famine. Soon afterward, Fargas is caught stealing red-handed, but manages to get the pack to pardon him by claiming that he acted under the influence of the evil spirit.12Adventurous Journey1989-12-1825 minMowgli is preoccupied by the presumption that he cannot compete with the wolves of the pack, so when Akela asks for a volunteer to carry out a dangerous scouting mission, he does everything possible to be chosen. The boy carries out the mission successfully, even if he might have been less fortunate without the help of Bagheera. Mowgli realizes that he still has much to learn, and so returns to Luri’s den with his mind at peace.13The Hero’s Return1989-12-2525 minOur friends offer refuge to several wolves who are being pursued by hunters. After a long absence, Lala’s father Vermillion, and Sandah, Akela’s son, return home. When he learns of Alexander’s death, Vermillion offers to take leadership of the pack. However, Sandah does not like the idea because he resents the presence of Mowgli, a perceived member of the cruel human race that kills for the pleasure of killing. Mowgli’s curiosity then gets the better of him; he resolves to leave in order to meet other human beings, but, once again, he is caught by the monkeys acting on behalf of Shere Khan.14The Cold Bed1990-01-0825 minThe monkeys take Mowgli to the place known as "The Cold Lair", the ruins of a once magnificent city. The boy is brought face to face with Shere Khan, and is about to meet the end of his life when Bagheera and Baloo come to the rescue. Fortunately for both the rescuers and the rescued, Vermillion and Sandah show up as well, determined to defy the curse of the ruined city. The battle then ends as some men invade "The Cold Lair".15Human Being1990-01-1525 minThe duel between Shere Khan and Vermillion is interrupted by the arrival of three men who have come to search for buried treasure among the ruins of the cursed city. Hampered by the presence of the monkeys, the men kill several of them before Sandah comes to their rescue and is badly injured. Mowgli and Bagheera then risk their lives to save Sandah, and end up swooned, though the other animals take them for dead. Meanwhile, after finding the treasure, the three men kill each other, leaving the way clear for Mowgli and the panther to join their friends. Vermillion then sets out with Sandah’s…16The Damaged Heart1990-01-2225 minThe situation within the wolf pack becomes unexpectedly tense.... The younger wolves blame Mowgli for the departure of their potential new leader, Vermillion, and they treat the boy badly. Then, Sura is badly injured in a fight that breaks out during an argument over Mowgli. Mowgli is so unhappy that he decides to leave the pack.17Goodbye Mother1990-01-2925 minConvinced that his presence in the pack is causing nothing but problems, Mowgli decides to leave. Bagheera and Luri try to talk him out of it, but nothing they can convince him to stay. At this point Baloo and Bagheera compare notes and go to Chil for help. The eagle agrees to watch over Mowgli and immediately sets out to locate and meet him.18The Other Jungle1990-02-0525 minMowgli walks for a long time and ends up in an area that is completely unfamiliar to him. He begins to feel homesick for the den, but his determination to continue his journey is omnipresent. The nights are very scary, but during the day he has the opportunity to exchange a few words with new friends he meets along the way. Mowgli then falls into a trap dug in the ground, but is saved by a man named Rahhar who takes him to his hut and treats his injured ankle. Chil loses all trace of the boy while he is in the hut, and becomes seriously concerned for his safety.19Going Back To My Own Jungle1990-02-1225 minThanks to Rahhar’s care and attention, Mowgli quickly recovers his strength. The two establish a rapport based on mutual respect and affection; this friendship has a lasting effect on the boy child’s psyche. Worried by Mowgli’s disappearance, the wolf pack, Bagheera, and Baloo decide to set out on a search. They then arrive on the scene just in time to save the boy and his newfound friend from the red dogs.20Mowgli’s Lair1990-02-1925 minBack home with his friends, Mowgli finds it hard to accept life in the jungle. His new experiences have made him grow up so much that his mother decides that the time has arrived for him to leave the den. Reassured by the affection of his closest friends, Mowgli faces a new stage in his life by becoming a person in his own right.21The Waterfront Truce1990-02-2625 minDrought has hit the jungle, and the animals are dying of thirst. Hathi the elephant invokes the "water truce" which had always been in place around the river in order to allow the animals to slake their thirst. Only Shere Khan refuses to recognize the truce, prompting Mowgli to challenge him to a duel.22The `Dreaded` Came1990-03-0525 minHathi the elephant tells Mowgli and his friends how terror was felt for the first time in the jungle when, a long time ago, his ancestor, Tha, was king of the jungle and an ancestor of Shere Khan was the first animal to kill first one of his fellow animals, and then the first to kill a man. He explains how, in so doing, Tha condemned all the inhabitants of the jungle to be hunted by humans. Thus men and tigers were together greatly responsible for the end of peace in the jungle.23The Pride Of A Hero1990-03-1225 minWhile out hunting, Mowgli helps a stag to free itself from a snare, rather than taking advantage of its situation by killing it. This gesture earns the boy the scorn of his companions, who accuse him of breaking the law of the jungle. A few days later, the stag forces Mowgli into a fight and the boy kills it. Although Mowgli has been forced to respect the ruthless “law of the strongest”, he does not feel proud of himself.24Mowgli Has A Sweet Heart1990-03-1925 minSomething has changed between Lala and Mowgli. To the boy’s great surprise, the young she-wolf, who was usually nasty and derisive, suddenly becomes docile. Bagheera does not approve of Lala’s new feelings for Mowgli. However, after Sura, who has courted Lala in vain, saves her life, she sees him in a new light. Meanwhile, Chil sounds the alarm: a serious danger is approaching in the guise of Grizzle and his gang.25Bunto The Stray Wolf1990-03-2625 minGrizzle has been banished from the pack, but returns to the jungle and forces Akela to accept his presence, while Bagheera then discovers that the rogue wolf is involved in one of Shere Khan’s ploys.26Peace In Seeonee Forest1990-04-0225 minMowgli and the others find out that Grizzle is in cahoots with Shere Khan, but decide refrain from speaking so as not to spread panic throughout the pack. Meanwhile, Grizzle continues his evil ways, and the wolves decide to resort to force. Luri then tells Akela about the rogue wolf’s pact with Shere Khan, and offers to seek Hathi’s intervention. Hathi comes to the rescue and Grizzle and “his gang” are driven out of the jungle.27No Leader1990-04-0225 min28Mother’s Determination1990-04-1625 min29Look For The Bad Guys1990-04-2325 min30The Victory Song By All1990-04-3025 min31Birth Of A New Boss1990-05-0725 min32Mowgli’s Red Flower1990-05-1425 min33Human Speech Is Beautiful1990-05-2125 min34Mowgli Goes To The Village1990-05-2825 min35Want To Know Human Being1990-06-0425 min36The Lying Human Being1990-06-1125 min37Tears Before The Battle1990-06-1825 min38The Decisive Battle1990-06-2525 min39Good Bye Meshua1990-07-0225 min40The Dhole Invasion1990-07-0925 min41Run Through The Valley Of Death1990-07-3025 min42Longing To Meet Meshua1990-08-1325 min43Help Mowgli1990-08-2025 min44The Sound Of The Trumpet-Shell And The Bells In The Moonless Night1990-08-2725 min45The Great Counterattack From The Forest!
