 car, the evil brother of King Mufasa and
second in line to the throne, wants to be king. He is an
out-and-out villain: witty, slimy, seductive, and willing to do
anything to gain power -- even if it means siding with the evil
hyenas and killing his brother and his nephew, Simba. Having no
sense of shame, he dares Simba to visit the forbidden Elephant
Graveyard. There, three hungry hyenas -- Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed --
await Simba and his friend, Nala. Fortunately, just as the hyenas
are about to attack, Mufasa and his sidekick, Zazu, roar to the
rescue and save Simba.

The evil Scar doesn't give up. He initiates a wildebeest stampede
that kills Mufasa. Then he blames Simba for his father's death.
"Run far away, Simba, and never come back!" he warns the frightened
cub. Chased by the hyenas, Simba disappears into the endless
savannah, leaving Scar as king of the Pride Lands! As bad guys will
do, Scar lets the Pride Lands slip into desperate trouble. As king,
Scar lets the goose-stepping hyenas run wild. Food supplies are
soon depleted and starvation and ruin spread across the land.

Years later, Simba returns to challenge the cowardly Scar. The two
lions battle fiercely. Defeated, Scar begs Simba for mercy. Simba
releases Scar, echoing the evil lion's words to him in the canyon
long ago -- "Run far away, Scar, and never come back!"
