However, Scar has manipulated the situation to make Simba believe he took his own father's life, and that Scar is totally innocent.

  When Simba works up the courage to intervene with the messy, food-barren situation that Scar has created at home, Scar guilt-trips him about Mufasa, pushing Simba back into a corner and sending him stumbling off the edge of a cliff.

Tracking Esmeralda across the towers of the Notre Dame, he bellows these words, cursing the person he was about to burn for his own sins. Shortly thereafter, he plummets to his fiery doom.
