Neil the wimpy lion is under pressure from his overbearing mother-in-law to man up and get buff like the previous alpha-male lion Maximus. To prove he too can be a powerful, dominant male, Neil seeks out ways to improve his physique. Impressed by Jurgen's muscles, he decides to copy the gorilla and go vegetarian. The new veggie diet, however, doesn't go down too well for carnivore Neil - he misses his meat with a side order of meat, and despite his best efforts to kill some carrots, his mother-in-law still isn't impressed. Poor Neil.
