Male voice: AH! LOOK AT THEM PEARLS!

WOW, I'VE GOTTA HAVE THEM PEARLS.

BUT, BOSS, YOU NEVER GO ANYPLACE CLASSY ENOUGH TO WEAR PEARLS.

I DON'T WANNA WEAR 'EM, YOU BARNACLE BRAIN!

I JUST WANT 'EM, SEE?

Shrimp: OH, YEAH. (chuckles) SURE, BOSS, I KNOW THAT.

High-pitched voice: ANNOUNCING THE COUNT AND COUNTESS

OF CLAMBAKERSFIELD!

AH, MY GOOD FRIENDS.

HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?

THE LAST TIME WE SAW YOU, YOUR HAIR WAS STILL RED.

AND YOU WERE NOT YET A FATHER.

IS THIS ARIEL?

THE LAST TIME I SAW YOU, YOU WERE NO BIGGER THAN A MINNOW.

COME LOOK AT THE TWINS, ARIEL.

Ariel: MY, WHAT PERFECT LITTLE ANGEL FISH.

TONIGHT, I SHALL PERSONALLY CONDUCT

THE RITE OF PASSAGE CEREMONY FOR YOUR MERTWINS.

BUT FIRST, HOW ABOUT A TOUR OF ATLANTICA?

OH, MY! OH, SOUNDS LIKE AN OCEAN OF FUN.

-BUT WE HAVE NO BABYSITTER. -I'LL TAKE CARE OF THEM.

WHY, ARIEL, THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL.

ARIEL, BABYSITTING IS HARD WORK.

AND THAT'S JUST WITH ONE BABY.

OH, DADDY, I CAN DO IT.

THEY'LL BE NO TROUBLE AT ALL.

(crashing)

(crashing continues)

-(giggles) -(Sebastian gasps)

ARIEL, WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?

OH, JUST, UH, BABYSITTING, SEBASTIAN.

OH! THE CLAMBAKERSFIELD TWINS.

ARIEL, THIS IS NO WAY TO HANDLE BABIES.

YOU MUST USE THE CHILD "PSYCHOLOLIGY."

DO THE GENTLE VOICE,

-THE CARING CLAW. -Both: AH!

COOTCHIE-COOTCHIE-COO! COOTCHIE-COOTCHIE-COO!

(twins laughing)

COOTCHIE-COOTCHIE-COO! HA! SEE?

I KNOW HOW TO HANDLE BABIES. OH!

-(twins laughing) -STOP IT! (laughs)

BABIES! BABIES! NO! (laughing)

(both laugh)

KEEP AN EYE ON THEM, MR. EXPERT.

I'LL GET SOME OF MY OLD TOYS FOR THEM TO PLAY WITH.

SOME OLD UNBREAKABLE TOYS.

(all laughing)

(gasping) NO.

(laughs) OH, NO! (sighs)

NO!

FLOUNDER, LET ME TELL YOU THE PROPER WAY TO CARE FOR BABIES.

YOU SEE, I COME FROM A VERY LARGE FAMILY.

WHY, DURING THE BABY BOOM, MY FAMILY NEARLY EXPLODED.

YEAH, I'VE BEEN WATCHING BABIES SINCE... WHEN I WAS A BABY.

OH! WHAT A CUTE CRAB CHILD I WAS,

WITH MY LITTLE CLAWS AND BIG EYES.

HOW ARE THINGS GOING WITH THE CHILDREN?

JUST FINE. NOTICE HOW QUIET THEY ARE?

(gasps) THEY'RE GONE!

GONE?

(crowd chattering)

EXCUSE ME, I'M LOOKING FOR TWIN MERBABIES.

-HAVE YOU SEEN THEM? -YEAH, THEY LOOK LIKE THIS.

ONLY CUTER.

OH, IT'S ALL MY FAULT.

HMM... DON'T BLAME YOURSELF, ARIEL.

YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT, SEBASTIAN.

YOU WERE THE ONE WHO LOST THEM.

ME?

YOU WERE THE BABYSITTER.

YEAH, BUT YOU SAID YOU WERE A BABY EXPERT!

WELL, YOU WERE THE ONE WHO LISTENED TO ME!

HEY, BOSS, IF WE GET AHOLD OF THOSE TWINS,

WE CAN FORCE THEIR MOTHER TO GIVE US HER PEARLS.

HEY, I GOT AN IDEA. IF I GET AHOLD OF THOSE TWINS,

I CAN FORCE THEIR MOTHER TO GIVE ME HER PEARLS.

HOW DO I THINK OF THESE THINGS?

THAT'S WHAT MAKES YOU THE BOSS, BOSS.

THIS'LL GIVE ME THE CHANCE

TO USE THE NEW SECOND-HAND BUBBLE GUN

I JUST TOOK OVER IN THE MARKETPLACE.

DOES IT WORK?

IT WORKS.

AND HERE IS THE ATLANTICA MARKETPLACE.

OH, VERY IMPRESSIVE.

OH, THE CHILDREN WOULD LOVE THIS.

I HOPE THEY'RE GETTING ALONG ALL RIGHT WITH ARIEL.

UM, I'M SURE EVERYTHING'S GOING... SWIMMINGLY.

(chuckles)

-(rustling) -(twins cooing)

(cooing)

WHEE!

(cooing)

WHEE!

AH!

THERE THEY ARE.

(screams)

FLOUNDER, DECOY PLAN NUMBER ONE.

OH, I HATE PLAN NUMBER ONE.

Flounder: HEY, SQUIDLY.

BET YOU CAN'T CATCH ME.

NAA-NAA-NA-NA-NAAA. (blows raspberry)

-Flounder: ARIEL! -(Ariel gasps)

KEEP AN EYE ON THE TWINS.

WOE IS ME. WHAT ELSE COULD GO WRONG?

THIS HAS POSSIBILITIES.

I'M TAKING OVER THESE TWINS, SEE?

THEY'RE MINE. ALL MINE.

ALL RIGHT, SHRIMP. LET 'EM HAVE IT.

Both: OH!

(cooing, laughing)

(gasps) KIDS!

DON'T EVER TAKE CANDY FROM STRANGERS!

ARIEL! HELP!

(yelling)

(yelling)

YOO-HOO! HEY, YOU BIG BULLY.

WHY DON'T YOU PICK ON SOMEONE YOUR OWN SIZE?

OR EVEN ONE-FOURTH YOUR SIZE, LIKE ME?

(grunting)

(screams)

(panting)

FLOUNDER, LOOK!

(teeth snapping)

(roaring)

(screaming)

PHEW! THAT WAS A CLOSE ONE.

-(screams) -(teeth snapping)

THAT'LL TEACH YOU TO STICK YOUR NOSE WHERE IT DON'T BELONG!

(laughs, screams)

SEBASTIAN, WHERE ARE THE TWINS?

THIS TIME IT WAS NOT MY FAULT.

(babbling, cooing)

(panting)

AS SOON AS I CATCH MY BREATH,

I'M TAKING OVER THIS HILL, SEE?

FORGIVE ME FOR ASKING, BOSS, BUT WHAT DO WE NEED THIS HILL FOR?

SO'S I CAN THROW YOU DOWN IT.

OH...

(sighs) DADDY TRIED TO WARN ME.

AS A BABYSITTER, I'M A BIG FLOP.

DON'T FEEL BAD, ARIEL. WE'RE JUST AS BIG A FLOP AS YOU ARE.

FLOUNDER'S RIGHT, ARIEL. WE'RE ALL A BUNCH OF FLOPS.

THANKS. (sighs) I WONDER WHERE THEY COULD BE.

YOU KNOW, I HEARD THE LOBSTER MOBSTER TELL THE SHRIMP TO HEAD FOR THE HILLS.

(gasps) COME ON!

NOW LOOK, YOU TWO.

I TOOK OVER THIS SHACK FROM AN OLD HERMIT CRAB, SEE?

THAT WAS GREAT. HE DIDN'T WANT IT ANYMORE.

I CAN'T IMAGINE WHY.

PUT THOSE BRATS TO BED!

(yawns) HEADING FOR THE HILLS TIRED ME OUT.

YOU WATCH THE LITTLE TADPOLES WHILE I CATCH SOME Z'S.

OH, GREAT. CATCH SOME FOR ME, WILL YOU, BOSS?

UH, YEAH. RIGHT.

(cooing)

(cooing)

-KEEP THOSE KIDS QUIET! -OKAY, BOSS.

YOU CAN COUNT ON ME, BOSS.

I CAN BE AS QUIET AS A CLAM, BOSS.

YOU WANT QUIET, YOU GOT QUIET.

WHY, I WAS SO QUIET ONCE, NOBODY HEARD ABOUT IT.

-UH, SHRIMP... -YEAH?

SHUT UP!

(cooing)

Lobster Mobster: I'M TAKING OVER THIS.

(babbling)

(laughs) I DON'T KNOW WHAT WAS WORSE,

TAKING CARE OF THESE LITTLE MUD GUPPIES OR DEALING WITH THAT SHARK.

-THE SHARK! -I SAY THE TWINS WAS WORSE.

NO, NO, BOSS. THE SHARK. THE SHARK!

I DISAGREE. THE TWINS WAS MUCH WORSE THAN--

THE SHARK! AH! LOOK OUT!

(both shouting)

WELL, IT'S TIME TO DRESS THE CHILDREN FOR THE CEREMONY.

DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE 101 WAYS TO PREPARE PLANKTON?

YES! RECIPE NUMBER ONE: YOU TAKE SOME PLANKTON, YOU PUT A LITTLE--

SEBASTIAN.

-(lively music plays) -I LEARNED THIS STEP

FROM A CUTE LITTLE CRAYFISH WHO HAD A THING FOR ME.

SEBASTIAN, WHERE ARE THEY?

Ariel: HERE WE ARE, FATHER.

I GOT THEM ALL DRESSED FOR THEIR CEREMONY.

(sighs)

I OFFER THESE MERCHILDREN

AND SOON THEY WILL SPEAK THE WORDS OF THE MERPEOPLE.

WHEN THEY DO LEARN TO SPEAK, I HOPE THEY WON'T TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TODAY.

(cooing)

AH! OH, MY GOSH!

(twins cooing)

ARIEL, YOU'VE DONE SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB.
