Synopsis
June and her friends are at the zoo, but when two camels speak to her, she suddenly learns from them that they are a group of magical beings trapped in the form of zoo animals because the zoo has a magical barrier. Now June must try to save them from a wicked zoo-keeper who is in reality a female demon named Gigi who drains magical energy from magical folk to stay young, and Gigi turns June into a Ring-tailed Lemur to drain her magical energy. Can Ray Ray and Monroe get there in the nick of time?

- Ray Ray: (to Monroe) You froze my mom!
- Monroe: Aye.
- Ray Ray: Dude, do you know how many times that would of saved my butt?!
- Monroe: As much as I love a conversation about your posterior, I'd got to get going, you stay here and make sure your mother doesn't defrost.
- Ray Ray: Hey, how'd you know I was trackin' you dude? 'Cuz I was makin' with the whole ninja-following thing....
- Monroe: Well, Your Stealthiness, it's hard to pin-point the exact security breach, it could have been when you ran into that trash can, stopped to order a chocolate shake at Mountain Burger Queen drive-thru or strted making that ridiculous noise you with your straw!
- Ray Ray: What this? (makes noise with the straw) I thought it sounded like a owl.
- June: I hear you need protection. What have you got?
- Captive: How about some Belgian Chocolate?
- (June slams a food tray into T-Bone's face, knocking him out)
- June: ANYONE ELSE WANT SOME OF THIS?!
- Micheal: (walks up to a frozen Barbara) Honey, which do you like better, the red tie, or the blue tie? (she is frozen pointing You're right, red is power.

- June: Helloo-oo, I'm a lemur, tree-dwelling prosimian from Madagascar! Big difference.
- Ray Ray: Woohoo, prison break! They'll never take us alive!
- Monroe: Why do you always say that? I prefer to be taken alive.
- Ray Ray: Now, everyone, proceed to the exit in an orderly fashion... AS FAST AS YOU CAN!

- June: Monroe!
- Monroe: He grabbed it from me.
- (Ray Ray chuckles)
Trivia
- Character Name: Wendell The monster turned into a camel has an attitude (always whining about his appearance) and voice similar to Wendell's from Mike, Lu & Og. That is probably because the voice actor for both is S. Scott Bullock, who voices them both in a squeaky falsetto similar to the style of Kenneth Williams.
- McBurger Queen is a spoof of Burger King, McDonald's, and Dairy Queen.
- First time June herself is magically transformed into something else.
- Ending Tagline: "Lemur! You're a lemur!" - Tibo
