Marsupilami - Season 2

Blou Print is supposed to install Felicia's own telephone network and sets up an antenna mast that generates ultrasonic waves with which a new generation of mobile phones works. It turns out that all the animals are hypnotized by the ultrasonic waves and lured to the antenna mast. This gives Felicia the idea of making the animals disappear so that Palombia loses its status as a wildlife and nature reserve and she can do whatever she wants there.

Blou Print and Ollie use an analyzer to obtain the DNA of every animal and plant in the Palombian jungle and patent it to Felicia's Absahn Trading Company. On Felicia's orders, everything is stamped with the Absahn logo and whoever eats, uses or even looks at anything want, have to pay. Anyone who doesn't do this will be thrown in jail. So Hector, Aunt Diana, Topangadakota, Toofurkey and a bunch of animals end up behind bars. The only one who can help now is Marsu, who of course couldn't put a stamp on the construction mania and Ollie.

Hector flies a kite. Marsu in his high spirits tears off the string and the kite sails away. In search of the dragon, Marsu punches a hole in the spiny shell of a giant tree. Inside the tree, which is totally hollow, is a mini-jungle that was previously completely isolated from the outside world. In this mini jungle there are the same animals as outside, just much smaller. Hector and Marsu take three little monkeys home with them, but they are also followed by a parrot, two jaguars and a tapir. At the camp, little Marsus have a lot of fun with the mini animals and Hector builds them a cage so they can spend the night in a safe place. But in the morning, Hector and Marsu find out that the monkeys have dismantled the cage and the animals have disappeared.

Hector meets Toofurkey in the jungle, who tells him that he has to undergo a manhood ritual. If he fails the test, he may never return to his tribe. Hector decides to help Toofurkey, and despite Aunt Diana's ban, Hector, Marsu, and Toofurkey go off to pass the exam. The "Powerful Spirit" who is of course Topangadakota, sets the tasks, which they master with a lot of effort in teamwork. In the end, Topangadakota gave Hector the tribal name "Little Rooster" and each of the three received a flower called the Ray of the Night. Hector gives his flower to Aunt Diana, who is overjoyed to have him back safely.

Hector and the Marsus are on the hunt for frogs for Hector's terrarium. A meteorite falls from the sky. When they arrive at the point of impact, Hector realizes that it is some kind of satellite. He hits it with a stick, the satellite opens and orange foam oozes out. He takes a sample of it to show Aunt Diana because he thinks it's something from far away. Of course, Diana doesn't believe his science fiction story, but she promises to take a close look at the foam the next morning. In the morning the foam has already grown over half the camp. Diana examines it and finds that the components of the foam are all from Earth.

Hector, Marsu, and Toofurkey walk into the Vin San Gogo ghost's forbidden territory while playing, despite Toofurkey's warning beforehand. In their high spirits, Marsu and Hector knock over the totem of the spirit. The three put it back up, but now the totem is missing an ear. Shortly thereafter, one realizes that all the birds have become mute. Topangadakota says that Vin San Gogo in his anger silenced the birds, and if the ear is not found and the spirit is appeased with a musical ceremony, then the other animals follow, and then the humans, and it all eventually leads to the end of the world.

Felicia engages the magician Ziegenfeld, who thinks he is unique, as an attraction for her planned hotel. During a rehearsal, he ends up in the jungle and walks around aimlessly. Eventually he comes across an anaconda who hypnotizes him. He is saved at the last second by Marsu and Hector. Ziegenfeld is fascinated by Marsu and immediately thinks of him to take to Las Vegas as an attraction. He is quite friendly and Hector, who would like to learn a few magic tricks from him, falls for him. Aunt Diana is also initially impressed by her charming guest. Then Ziegenfeld sees Marsu female, who seems even better suited to his project, and hypnotizes and kidnaps her.

Hector and Aunt Diana are expecting a visit from Hector's cousin Julian, but Diana's grandmother Anna, known to everyone in the family as Disaster Anna, appears instead. Short-sighted and almost deaf, she has the demeanor of an old sergeant, which naturally creates tension. She's up to some nonsense. Among other things, she gives Marsu her famous "energy drink" to drink, which causes Marsu to rage through the jungle like a wisp. Hector and Diana believe that Marsu must be captured before anything worse happens, but capturing a Marsu is nearly impossible.

Hector is desperately looking for a birthday present for Aunt Diana, but he just can't think of anything sensible. After several unsuccessful attempts to set something up, he goes to Topangadakota, who advises him to just be there. Hector understands what he means and decides being there for Diana throughout her birthday and helping her with everything. He starts the day by making her breakfast, but she doesn't even notice because she is in a hurry to watch a tree that blooms once a year, on that very day.

Toofurkey's little sister Torukazima has a stuffed animal that looks like a marsupilami that she loves more than anything. She constantly hops around with her Marsupilou. On one of their outings, the Marsupilou hops off and does some damage everywhere it goes, including Aunt Diana's garden. But the little Marsus take him to their hearts and have a lot of fun with him. Eventually they get so attached to the stuffed animal that they decide to make it disappear into the jungle.

Hector lures insects into transparent containers to draw them and then release them again. But the undertaking is difficult because Marsu constantly eats the insects and the little Marsus misuse his drawing utensils. When Hector and Marsu are catching insects again, a huge cloud of insects comes flying by that are on the run from a poison that Felicia has released through Ollie and building mania. Due to a mistake by the two, Felicia receives a concentrated dose of the poison and falls into delirium. That's when Nick shows up, pretending to be her brother and heir, and takes charge of her empire.

Hector borrows Aunt Diana's old tape recorder to record birdsong. But the birds always fall silent when he hits the record button. Aunt Diana runs Beethoven's Fifth on her layout in the garden to get the plants to grow. The opening theme is happily sung by the birds. Also Marsu female sings it and Hector takes a recording of it. When Marsu hears them, he thinks his wife is in the device. He takes the device to his nest and lets it run. Then his wife comes and thinks he has another wife. Full of anger, she throws it out of the nest and the device lands somewhere in the jungle.

The three little Marsus find a seed pod in the jungle and bring it back to the camp. There she falls into a planting hole prepared by Aunt Diana for a tree. The plant develops amazingly fast. By the next morning, its root suckers have spread all over the camp. Aunt Diana puts one of the flowers in her hair and then becomes very peculiar. She does everything to make the plant grow and thrive and gradually behaves as if it were a flower. Ms. Marsu and the little ones also get flowers on their heads and become just as strange. Hector and Marsu decide to do something about the plant becoming more and more dominant.

Brenham Backalive observes Marsu building a jaguar trap and of course uses his new knowledge to catch jaguars and earn a lot of money. He catches the mother of a little jaguar, who then lies alone and sad in the jungle. The little Marsus find him and drift all sorts of practical jokes with him, which Mama Marsu finally stops. They take the foundling home and after some friction, the four little ones become good friends. At night, the little jaguar hears his mother and makes his way to her.

Felicia drives into the jungle to watch construction mania and Ollie at work. She goes off the road, falls down a cliff and lands in a jungle pear tree, the fruit of which turns her skin green. Marsu and Hector find her but do not recognize her and take her to the camp. When she wakes up, she doesn't know who she is and spends a wonderful time with Hector, Aunt Diana and Marsus. On one of their trips they come across a sewage polluted area that looks absolutely ugly and Felicia decides to form a gang with Hector and Marsu, the jungle rescue gang.

Felicia leaves Palombia for a few days and hands over the command to Blou Print. Of course, he immediately has an idea: for a fee, he lets everyone deliver their garbage to Palombia and Ollie then shoots the garbage into the jungle with a special cannon. The whole jungle, including the camp, has been badly affected by the garbage rain. Hector and Marsu decide to do something about it.

There are almost no more piranhas in Palombia, which of course is a disaster for the Marsu family. Hector and Marsu find out that the piranhas were fished out by Felicia's people after she declared the fish very rare and therefore extremely valuable. Aunt Diana tells Hector a story that happened centuries ago in Holland, where with tulips big business was done. Everyone was dying to have tulips, so these flowers became invaluable. But after a while the tulip mania was over. Based on Aunt Diana's story of the tulip, Hector, as Felicia, announces over the radio that piranhas are worth nothing and that the new hit is Italian shoes.

Hector is reading his new Krozam comic book, but Marsu prefers action. He takes the hilt from Hector and climbs a tree with it. Hector climbs after him and falls down. His fall is slowed just before he hits the ground. Hector begins to think that Marsu has saved him once again, but realizes that it is Krozam who is holding him. Hector is thrilled to be with his comic book hero, but with everything Krozam does, he comes up with something that Marsu does much better.

Aunt Diana is stressed because Hector no longer likes her kitchen. She tries her hand at dishes from Ursula Leckerkoch's cookbook, but without much success. Ursula, who is Felicia's mother, is visiting her and wants to search the jungle for unusual plants for the recipes in her new cookbook. Construction madness hears Felicia, who has a somewhat strained relationship with her mother, saying she wishes Ursula would get lost in the jungle. Construction mania and Ollie, who accompany Ursula into the jungle, hope for plus points with their boss and leave the old lady alone somewhere in the jungle so that she cannot find her way back.

One fine evening at Topangadakota, a giant piranha attacks Ms. Marsu, and Marsu naturally wants revenge on him. Hector immediately sends a radio message to send an environmental expert to them. Benno rickshaw is quickly on the spot and Johnny G. Winner also comes, but unfortunately also prey. Prudently, they all form a team to go in search of the fish. After some trouble, they find the piranha, but they are gradually swallowed up by it. Aunt Diana, who doesn't really understand what's happening, sits down by the river with a ukulele and plays. To their great delight, the big fish appears and starts dancing in the water. In its interior, the swallowed are whirled around quite a bit.

Our heroes prepare to celebrate Christmas in Palombia. So that they can decorate the camp in peace, the baby marsus are sent to play in the jungle.

On a trip, Marsu eats a lot of round fruits in a clearing. When he gets home, he reacts with panicky horror to everything that is round. It takes a while for Hector and Aunt Diana to figure out what triggers his seizures. When they realize he has a "rundophobia," they clear away anything that's round, but also there are enough things in nature that are round and Marsu lives in fear and terror all the time. His family is not at all happy about him because he is no longer able to provide for them. Hector tries in vain to help him. Then at some point he comes up with the idea of going there with Marsu where it all started.

Marsu is helping a couple of birds that are really stressed out to feed the little birds that are always crying out for food. When the little Marsus find out, they imitate the birds and keep crying for food. Eventually, Marsu gets too stupid to serve them and he decides to teach them how to take care of themselves. He puts them in a canyon up in a tree and disappear. Hector, who is making a film about life in Palombia and is filming everything, thinks Marsu has left his children, but then he sees him in a hiding place, watching the children. Suddenly a jaguar appears and Hector drops his camcorder in shock.

Topangadakota asks Aunt Diana to take care of his garden while he is away for a secret ritual. A plant is covered with a basket. Topanga forbids her to reveal it because only shamans are allowed to do so. Diana, of course, cannot resist. As soon as Topanga is gone, she has to look at the plant. She takes it to the camp to study her, but there she is stung by the plant and falls into a deep sleep. Hector and Marsu try everything to wake her up, but nothing works. In desperation, Hector tells Toofurkey the whole story and they go in search of Topanga, who is the only one who can help.

Felicia hosts a quiz with Ollie and Blou Print to find out why Absahn City still can't be built and why they keep failing when it comes to demolishing the jungle. Lots of old stories are brought up, including those with prey, and finally it turns out that it is Hector, Aunt Diana and above all Marsu who are preventing the success of the Absahn company in Palombia.

Hector receives a letter that he has been accepted at the astrophysicist school. In order to visit her, however, he has to go to Europe, which somewhat dampens the initial euphoria. With a heavy heart he says goodbye and Aunt Diana wants to take him to the bus stop. They go first by boat and then by jeep, but eventually in the mud get stuck. Marsu, who has been chasing after them, pulls the jeep out of the mud, but then realizes that Hector wants to leave and he smashes the jeep. Hector and Aunt Diana continue on foot, and during this trek through the beautiful countryside, Hector finds it increasingly difficult to leave Palombia.
