I like parties, but I hate planning them! Thinking up games, collecting things... I don't know why Nala is so excited! How can she like all those chores?
Simba[src]

Whoever Lies Three Times... is a German comic inspired by The Lion King. It was published by Ehapa Verlag on July 25, 2000.

Synopsis[]

Mufasa wants Simba to help prepare a party for the cubs at Pride Rock. Simba is very hesitant, as he like parties but hates planning them. However, Nala is very excited and claims her mother says she's a great organizer. The cubs leave. Nala wants to get started right away the following morning, and Simba questions Nala's love for chores. Despite this, Simba agrees to help Nala prepare for the party.

However, the next day, Simba is relaxing on a hill and forgets to help Nala. Simba makes up an excuse, stating that while Nala was sleeping, he left to get some work done and was asking some animals about their knowledge of any games he could use for the party. Nala believes Simba's excuse and states she made up some games, such as having a racing contest, bobbing for fruit in a small pool, and a tug-of-war with a tree root. Simba likes Nala's ideas and wants to start arranging the party the next day.

The next day, Nala tries to wake Simba up, but Simba replies he'll sleep for five more minutes. However, Simba sleeps in until it is afternoon and tries to come up with an elaborate story as an excuse. Nala returns to Pride Rock, asking Simba where he has been. Simba explains he came out to help, but some hyenas found him and chased him for two hours. He returned back to Pride Rock to catch his breath. Nala, again, believes his tall tale.

A few hours later, Zazu questions Nala about Simba's involvement in preparing the party. The next day, Zazu sees Simba chasing a mosquito while the party preparations aren't finished. The hornbill reports this to Nala and leaves to go tell Mufasa about Simba not pulling his own weight. However, Nala stops him, stating they should teach Simba a lesson. Simba returns to Pride Rock to make up another excuse involving him rescuing a monkey from a crocodile.

On the day of the party, Simba is showered with compliments from Mufasa and Nala about his preparation of the party. Nala even talks about his excuses and wants the young cubs to cheer for Simba's hard work. Finally, Simba feels guilty and cleans up after the entire party is over, while Nala rests and cheers that her plan succeeded.
