Shenzi & Banzai.
No seriously. For reasons Kentucy Wildcat posted in another thread about Disney never pairing up their villians because it would make them too sympathetic it isn't in the movie, but without even reaching for anything esoteric, the two exchange this bicker over Zazu in both the junior novelization AND a source as official as the official comic to the movie put out by Marvel that proves "dysfunctional date" was officially entertained as a potential slant/source of their humor:
"I get the wings!" cried Shenzi.
"Oh sure," said Banzai, "And I get stuck with the bill."
"Okay, okay," said Shenzi, "We'll split the bill."
Unrelated, but there's also a great line in the comic "Don't you give me the bird!" that I sincerely wish they kept, because that would have been pretty funny.
