- Overview
- Background
- Role in the series
Mr. Pig is a character from the Timon & Pumbaa TV series who appeared in the episode "Animal Barn". He is voiced by Keith David.
Personality
High and mighty, Mr. Pig is rather selfish, rude, and self-absorbed. As he has won the Mr. Pig contest for 25 years, he claims himself to be the only "Mr. Pig" in the world and that Pumbaa (and possibly some other types of pigs) is a nobody. He is also often shown to have a serious look on his face, which may show how seriously he takes himself as the champion of the farm.
Physical Description
Mr. Pig appears to be an obese pig with pink skin and warts all over his body.
When Timon and Pumbaa are entering a Captain Oinker's Pig Farm and view a sign, a procession parades past in honor of a Mr. Pig sitting astride a wagon at the caboose of the group. Mr. Pig introduces himself, and Pumbaa politely echoes the introduction, calling himself Mr. Pig as well. In answer to Pumbaa's greeting, the pig sniffs rudely and proclaims that Pumbaa is not a Mr. Pig but a nobody.
Enraged, Timon hops onto the wagon and asks Mr. Pig how he earned himself the right to be called Mr. Pig. Equally angered, the pig uses his staff to smack Timon into the Mr. Pig sign, which explains that the pig has been the reigning champion of the Mr. Pig contest for 25 years. No sooner has Timon absorbed this information when Rooster lands on a nearby fence and announces that the contest is about to begin.
For the first task, the contestants are asked to perform a high dive into a low mud pool, where it is to be determined who can make the bigger splash. After Pumbaa's performance, he is given an extremely low score, while the reigning champion gets a perfect score. For the second task, the contestants are pitted against one another in a competition of oinks. Although Pumbaa does reasonably well in this round, Mr. Pig manages to break the measuring tool itself, ensuring himself another victory. For the third task, the contestants are asked to make the smelliest gas possible, and even among his specialty talent, Pumbaa loses once more to the reigning champion.
Come nightfall, Pumbaa is disheartened by his constant losing to Mr. Pig. Though Timon tries to cheer him up, Pumbaa only stays on the farm because he feels honor-bound to the competition, even though he knows that he is going to lose the final round.
The next morning, Rooster announces to the gathering that the final round has commenced. He shows the contestants a foot with numbers on its toes, naming the round "This Little Piggy", where the contestants must do what the rooster says; otherwise, they lose. At the start of the first task, Timon tries to convince Pumbaa to cheat, but the warthog promptly refuses. Unwilling to give up, Timon decides to secretly cheat himself.
Toe #1: This little piggy went to market. The contestants race down a footpath, where a sign directs one path to market and the other to China. As Mr. Pig reaches the two paths, Timon turns the sign so that Mr. Pig goes to China. When Pumbaa reaches the paths, Timon switches the sign back so that the warthog goes to market.
