Quote #7

SCAR: You know the law: never, ever mention THAT name in my presence. I … am … the KING!

Scar is actually so insecure about his kinghood—probably because it was ill-gotten—that he's made a law that forbids anyone from mentioning Mufasa's name. That's some intense manipulation.

Quote #8

SCAR: It's the lionesses' job to do the hunting.

Scar has passed the buck to the lionesses, blaming them for the food shortage when really, he's the one to blame.

Quote #9

SCAR: I'm 10 times the king Mufasa was.

Nice try, Scar. There aren't many who would believe this lie.
