Following a heated argument regarding Tony's cowardice, he and Coco sever their friendship and part ways. Tony subsequently decides to adopt a mandrill who was raised by humans, as the rest of the troop rejects him. A new dispute arises concerning whether animals raised by humans belong in the jungle. To address the negative associations other animals hold toward humans, Coco attempts to convince the mandrills that not all humans intend to harm wildlife. He shares personal anecdotes about his past life with humans before meeting Tony and explains the origin of Tony's signature hat.
