CARING FOR YOUR TREASURE IS MY PLEASURE, YOUR MAJESTY.

[PLAYS MUSIC]

ARIEL!

UH, OH. YOUR MAJESTY.

OH, HI, DADDY. I, UH-- I DIDN'T HEAR YOU ARRIVE.

HOW COULD YOU?

OH, SORRY, DADDY. WE'LL KEEP IT DOWN.

[PLAYS SLOW MUSIC]

WOULD YOU LIKE TO-- TO DANCE, DADDY?

ME?

WELL, I DID WIN FIRST PRIZE

AT THE NEPTUNE BALL LAST YEAR.

YOUR MAJESTY, YOU DANCE VERY WELL FOR YOUR AGE.

OOPS.

[CRACK]

OOH! MY BACK!

YOUR MAJESTY!

[MUSIC STOPS]

DADDY?

I THINK I'D BETTER GET BACK TO MY ROYAL...THRONE.

OH, I'LL HELP YOU.

WE HAVE ANOTHER PARTY TO SWIM TO, ARIEL. SEE YA.

OH. OH, O.K. UH, BYE, PEARL.

O.K., BYE. SEE YA LATER.

-I HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER, YOUR MAJESTY. -THANK YOU, URCHIN.

BETTER NOT DO SOMERSAULTS.

YOU CAN DEPEND ON IT, FLOUNDER.

OH, NOW I'VE RUINED YOUR PARTY.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, DADDY.

OH, I'M JUST AN OLD FUDDY-DUDDY.

OH, YOU AREN'T A FUDDY-DUDDY, DADDY.

YES, I AM.

SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY YOU WERE SWIMMING AROUND

GETTING INTO MISCHIEF.

THAT WAS YESTERDAY.

WELL, IT SEEMS LONG, LONG AGO.

POOR DADDY.

WISH THERE WAS SOME WAY TO MAKE HIM FEEL BETTER.

I COULDN'T HELP OVERHEARING, PRINCESS ARIEL,

BUT I KNOW SOMEONE WHO HAS ALL SORTS OF CURES AND POTIONS.

SHE'S SURE TO HAVE SOMETHING TO HELP THE KING.

WHY, GLOWFISH, THAT'S VERY SWEET OF YOU.

AND I THOUGHT YOU COULD HELP. HELP ME, THAT IS.

SO, GLOWFISH, THE KING IS FEELING HIS AGE, IS HE?

HE OUGHT TO TRY LIVING IN A CAVE FOR A FEW CENTURIES!

GIVE ME THE YOUTH STONE, AND WE'LL GET WHAT WE WANT.

YES. YES!

ONCE IT IS IN THE KING'S HANDS, BLOW THIS MAGIC FLUTE.

ITS SOUND WILL START THE SPELL

THAT WILL MAKE THE ROYAL JEWELS YOURS AND FREEDOM MINE.

BUT YOU MUST BRING ME TRITON'S TRIDENT.

ITS POWER CAN BREAK THE CURSE

THAT KEEPS MY POWER TRAPPED IN HERE.

I'LL BE FREE-- FREE TO PUT ON A HAPPY FACE!

HA HA HA HA HA!

JUST HOLDING IT MAKES YOU FEEL YOUNGER.

I DON'T FEEL ANYTHING.

OH, THAT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO YOUNG.

THEN LET THIS OLD CRAB GET HIS CLAWBONES ON IT.

IT ONLY WORKS FOR FISH--

FISH AND MERPEOPLE. FISH AND MERPEOPLE.

WELL, I HOPE IT WORKS FOR DADDY.

HERE, DADDY, THIS'LL MAKE YOUR OLD FISH BONES FEEL LIKE NEW.

ARIEL, I APPRECIATE YOUR CONCERN,

BUT IT'S REALLY NOT NECESSARY.

[PLAYS MUSIC]

WHO'S PLAYING THAT FLUTE? HMM?

[COUGHS]

DADDY?

DADDY? THE NAME'S RED.

DO I KNOW YOU TWO?

OH, YOU-- YOU'RE A LITTLE MERBOY.

YEAH. HEY, DO YOU WANT TO PLAY OR SOMETHING?

YOU CAN'T PLAY. YOU'RE KING TRITON, RULER OF ATLANTICA.

REALLY? THEN I CAN PLAY ANYTHING I WANT.

HEY, HOW ABOUT SEA HORSEY?

YEAH! WHOO!

YIPPEE!

WHOO!

OH, NO. SOMETHING WENT WRONG.

THIS IS A DISASTER!

YOU COULD SAY THAT.

DADDY, STOP!

YOU'LL HURT YOURSELF.

CAN'T CATCH ME! HEH HEH HEH!

DADDY! DADDY, WAIT!

SLOW DOWN, MY MISCHIEVOUS LITTLE MAJESTY!

AND DON'T WORRY. I'LL TAKE CHARGE OF THINGS.

ESPECIALLY THINGS THAT GLIMMER AND GLOW.

HA HA HA HA!

WELL, THE SORCERESS CAN WAIT FOR THE TRIDENT.

I HAVE SHINY THINGS TO COUNT.

HA HA HA HA!

[ARIEL] WAIT!

DADDY!

GOTCHA. COULD I PLEASE HAVE THE TRIDENT?

IT'S MINE. I'M THE KING.

BUT IT'S DANGEROUS.

WONDER WHAT'S UP THERE?

HEY, STAY HERE. I'LL CHECK IT OUT.

DADDY, NO! HUMANS ARE DANGEROUS, TOO!

NOW, WHERE HAVE I HEARD THAT BEFORE?

DADDY, STOP!

I JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN.

DON'T BE SUCH A FUDDY-DUDDY.

HEY!

HELP!

-DADDY! -HELP!

ARIEL! SEBASTIAN!

HELP!

OH, MAN! THE KING NEVER SHOULD HAVE DISOBEYED HIMSELF.

DADDY DOESN'T KNOW ANY BETTER.

HE'S JUST A CHILD.

OOH!

PLEASE! GET ME OUTTA HERE.

ARIEL! SEBASTIAN!

I'M SCARED!

USE YOUR TRIDENT TO CUT IT.

HEY, THAT WAS FUN.

WHAT DO WE DO NEXT?

FUN? FUN?

DADDY--

I TOLD YOU, MY NAME IS RED.

RED, YOU WERE ALMOST CAUGHT BY HUMANS.

BETTER GIVE ME THE TRIDENT.

WHY? I'M THE KING.

WELL, IT'S DANGEROUS,

AND YOU DON'T--

I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING. WATCH.

[ARIEL] BE CAREFUL.

OW!

WATCH THAT THING, YOU LITTLE...

UH, KING YOU.

OOPS! SORRY, SEBASTIAN.

OH, THINK NOTHING OF IT,

YOUR LITTLE MAJESTY.

I JUST WON'T RIDE SEA HORSES FOR A WHILE.

SEE? YOU'RE GOING TO HURT SOMEBODY.

AW, DON'T BE SUCH A WORRY-WHALE.

LET'S GO HAVE SOME FUN.

RED, NO!

OH...

HE CERTAINLY IS A ROYAL BUNDLE OF ENERGY.

YEAH, AND I WISH HE'D RUN OUT OF IT.

WHOA!

OH, YEAH!

[ARIEL] OH, THERE HE IS.

NOW, DADDY, YOU ALWAYS TOLD ME

RIDING CLAMS WAS A FOOLISH WASTE OF TIME.

WHY WOULD I SAY THAT?

THIS PLACE IS TOTALLY WAVY, MAN.

RED, HOW MANY TIMES MUST I TELL YOU--

OH, NO. OH, NO! I'M STARTING TO SOUND JUST LIKE MY FATHER.

OH! HA HA HA!

I'M KIND OF TIRED, ARIEL.

GOOD. LET'S GO HOME.

O.K.

-OHH... -OHH...

LOOK!

ONE OF MY SUBJECTS NEEDS MY HELP!

DADDY, NO!

YOUR MAJESTY!

AAH!

[RED] HA HA HA HA!

HA HA HA! OOH!

OHH!

AAH!

WATCH THIS!

[GASPS]

[CRASH]

[GRRR]

THAT'S WHY HE'S THE KING.

YOU MUST BE TIRED, DADDY-- I MEAN, RED.

WHY DON'T YOU LET ME

CARRY THE TRIDENT FOR YOU?

YEAH, RIGHT. THINK I WAS BORN YESTERDAY?

NOW, THERE'S AN INTERESTING QUESTION.

CAREFUL! THOSE ARE STINGING SEA NETTLES.

YOU KNOW, YOU'RE NICE, BUT YOU'RE ABOUT AS MUCH FUN

AS AN OLD SEA SLUG.

YOU'RE RIGHT, BUT I'M WORRIED ABOUT YOU, RED.

D-DON'T TOUCH THAT!

OW! OW!

OH, DID HIS MAJESTY GET A BOO-BOO?

OW! [SNIFFLING]

WHY DON'T YOU LISTEN? YOU'RE TOO YOUNG TO--

UH-OH, I DID IT AGAIN.

IF YOU HAD A BEARD,

I'D THINK YOU WAS YOUR FATHER

INSTEAD OF HIM. [LAUGHS]

JUST TRY TO BE CAREFUL, OKAY?

WHY DO YOU KEEP SAYING THAT?

'CAUSE IF ANYTHING HAPPENED TO YOU,

I'D NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF.

YOU MEAN YOU SPOIL MY FUN BECAUSE YOU LIKE ME?

YEAH. KIND OF STRANGE, ISN'T IT?

BUT FOR THE GOOD OF THE KINGDOM AND MY SANITY,

WELL, YOU'LL HAVE TO GROW UP, DADDY.

BEING KING IS EASIER THAN I THOUGHT.

HA HA HA HA!

ALL RIGHT, GLOWFISH,

YOU'VE GOT SOME EXPLAINING TO DO.

ARIEL! WELL, OF COURSE.

YOU KNOW ME. ANYTHING TO... HELP.

AND SO, AFTER I FOUND HER,

THE LADY IN THE CAVE AND I BECAME FRIENDS, YOU SEE.

I HAD NO IDEA

THE GEM WOULD DO THIS TO YOU, YOUR MAJESTY.

I ONLY WANTED YOU TO FEEL BETTER.

JUST KEEP SWIMMIN', GLOWFISH.

[GLOWFISH] THERE IT IS.

MAY I GO NOW?

YES, YOU CAN GO.

YOU CAN GO INTO THAT CAVE AND GET YOUR FRIEND.

ARIEL, I DON'T THINK THAT WILL BE NECESSARY.

WE'RE GONNA MEET HER...

FACE-TO-REALLY-BIG-FACE.

OH, HAVE YOU ALL COME TO RESCUE ME?

RESCUE YOU? FROM WHAT?

THE TERRIBLE SPELL

THAT KEEPS ME TRAPPED IN THIS CAVE.

PLEASE HELP ME.

THERE'S SOMETHING FAMILIAR ABOUT ALL THIS.

I COULD BREAK THE SPELL

IF YOU'LL JUST GIVE ME THE TRIDENT.

WHY SHOULD I?

I'VE BEEN TRAPPED HERE FOR CENTURIES.

PLEASE HURRY.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, ARIEL?

HURRY. HURRY!

IF SHE'S BEEN IN THERE FOR CENTURIES,

WHAT'S THE BIG HURRY?

GIVE ME THE TRIDENT!

SHE'S PLANNED THIS WHOLE THING.

SHE'S IN A HURRY

BECAUSE THE SPELL THAT MADE YOU YOUNG IS GOING TO WEAR OFF!

YOU'RE TOO SMART FOR YOUR OWN GOOD, MERMAID.

[ALL GASP]

COME BACK HERE, GLOWFISH!

WE HAD A DEAL.

NO MATTER.

I'LL JUST TAKE WHAT I WANT.

AAH!

[LAUGHS EVILLY]

AAH!

SHE'S CREATED AN UNDERTOW.

NOW I REMEMBER.

AS A CHILD,

OF COURSE I WOULDN'T KNOW WHO SHE WAS--

A WICKED SORCERESS I, MYSELF, CONDEMNED TO THIS CAVE

LONG AFTER MY CHILDHOOD.

BUT NOW I'M THE ONE WITH THE TRIDENT.

ARE YOU, SORCERESS?

OH, HOW DO YOU WORK THIS THING?

YEOW!

BETTER LUCK NEXT CENTURY, SORCERESS.

TRITON!

COME BACK! COME BACK!

SOME DAY I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS, TRITON!

[RUMBLING]

I'LL GET YOU,

AND THAT LITTLE MERMAID, TOO.

OHH...

AND I MUST SAY, YOUR HIGHNESS,

IT IS SO GOOD TO HAVE YOU BACK.

GLAD I COULD HELP.

WELL, GUESS I'LL BE ON MY WAY.

UH, AREN'T YOU FORGETTING SOMETHING, GLOWFISH?

OH, MY, YES.

I-- I AM HAPPY TO REPORT

I HAVE RECOVERED THE, UH, MISSING JEWELS. TA-TA.

UH, GLOWFISH...

ONE MORE THING.

AAH!

THAT GLOWFISH BE GLOWIN' NOW.

I DON'T REMEMBER EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED TODAY,

BUT I'M SURE I WAS A REAL FINFUL.

IT'S NOT EASY BEING A PARENT,

IS IT, DADDY?

THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF THAT'S MORE DIFFICULT

IS BEING A KID.
