Male voice: COMING THROUGH! COME ON!

WHOO! HA-HA-HA!

HEY, FLOUNDER! I'M OPEN!

GO DEEP!

? DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO ?

? DUM-DUH-DOO ?

-? DOO-DOO-- ? -LOOK OUT!

-WHOA! -WATCH OUT!

CAREFUL, DUDLEY.

YOU HAVE TO MOVE PRETTY FAST TO PLAY SPONGEBALL.

OH, I'M IN TOO BIG A...

HURRY TO-- OH!

-GOOD MORNING. -DUDLEY, WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?

I...

DID YOU FINISH THE CALCULATIONS?

UH... YES... I...

OH! THEN IT'S TRUE. THE RED TIDE IS COMING!

-(shouting) -SWIM! SWIM!

-HELP! -(all shouting)

-Dudley: OH, IT'S, UH... -POISONOUS!

DEADLY TO ALL MARINE LIFE. WE'D BETTER INVESTIGATE.

-YES. -WE DON'T WANT TO START A PANIC IN ATLANTICA.

OH, NO, SIR.

FOR NOW, WE MUSTN'T TELL ANYONE.

Sebastian: ? EVERYTHING YOU KNOW I KNOW ?

? YOU KNOW I KNOW, YOU KNOW, MON ?

(groans) ESPECIALLY ANYONE WHO HAS A TENDENCY TO BLAB.

Sebastian: (laughs) ? EVERYTHING YOU KNOW I KNOW ?

? YOU KNOW I KNOW, YOU KNOW, MON ?

(laughs) THAT TICKLES.

? EVERYTHING YOU KNOW I KNOW ?

? YOU KNOW I KNOW, YOU KNOW, MON ?

(laughs) OH, MON!

OH, GOOD MORNING, YOUR MAJESTY.

I HEARD THE MOST INTERESTING GOSSIP TODAY.

OF COURSE, I PROMISED NOT TO TELL.

-BUT... -NOT NOW, SEBASTIAN.

I-- I HAVE TO GO SOMEWHERE.

I'LL, OF COURSE, GO WITH YOU.

WE CAN TAKE OUR WORK WITH US

AND I'LL BE THERE TO ADVISE YOUR MAJESTY

ON ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO COME UP.

THAT WON'T BE NECESSARY, SEBASTIAN.

OW! OOF!

WHY DON'T YOU, UH... TAKE SOME TIME OFF?

ME? OFF? (laughs) OH, NO, YOUR MAJESTY.

I DON'T HAVE ANY VACATION TIME COMING.

OH, THAT TRIP TO BARBADOS LAST SUMMER

ATE UP MY VACATION DAYS FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS.

? EVERYTHING YOU KNOW I KNOW ?

? YOU KNOW I KNOW, YOU KNOW, MON ?

? EVERYTHING YOU KNOW I KNOW ?

? YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, I KNOW, MON ?

-OH! -WELL, DON'T YOU HAVE, UM, APPOINTMENTS,

LIKE, UH, THE DOCTOR?

NO. I'M IN PERFECT HEALTH, SIRE.

WATCH THIS.

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE...

SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT... NINE.

-THE, UH, DENTIST? -JUST HAD THE CHECKUP.

NO CAVITIES, MON.

YES. I INTEND TO STAY BY YOUR SIDE, AS USUAL.

-NO MATTER WHAT. -(groans)

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, SEBASTIAN.

I DON'T NEED YOU TODAY.

OH, YOU'RE SO RIGHT.

(gulps)

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

THERE ARE CERTAIN MATTERS OF COURT THAT ARE, WELL, SECRET.

SECRET? FROM ME? YOUR MOST TRUSTED ADVISOR?

YES, WELL, EVEN A TRUSTED ADVISOR MUST TAKE ORDERS,

AND I AM ORDERING YOU TO STAY HERE!

BUT-- BUT-- BUT-- BUT YOUR MAJESTY!

OH... THE KING DON'T TRUST ME ANYMORE.

Sponge: WHEEE!

-(babbling) -OH, SEBASTIAN!

HAVE YOU SEEN OUR SPONGE BALL?

HUH! I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR SILLY GAMES, ARIEL.

I HAVE WORK TO DO.

WRITING UP SOME IMPORTANT PAPERS FOR THE KING, HUH?

NO, WRITING UP MY RESIGNATION!

(clears throat) OH...

"DEAR, YOUR MAJESTY.

I QUIT. THAT'S IT."

SEBASTIAN, YOU CAN'T LEAVE.

YEAH. IF YOU'RE NOT AROUND, WHO'LL THE KING YELL AT?

THE KING MADE IT QUITE CLEAR HE DON'T WANT OLD SEBASTIAN AROUND.

OH. DADDY LOVES YOU, SEBASTIAN.

HUH! THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK.

HE WENT OFF ON SOME MISSION, AND LOOK WHO HE DIDN'T TAKE WITH HIM!

MAYBE HE HAD TO MOVE FAST, TOO FAST FOR YOU TO KEEP UP.

HE TOOK A TURTLE WITH HIM!

-I'M GONNA TALK TO DADDY. -NO, NO, ARIEL!

YOU MUSTN'T DO THAT!

I AM A CRUSTACEAN.

I HAVE MY PRIDE.

PLEASE, PROMISE ME, ARIEL,

DON'T TALK TO YOUR FATHER ABOUT THIS.

ALL RIGHT, I PROMISE.

HM... GOOD.

NOW, I'M GOING TO FIND ANOTHER JOB,

ONE WHERE I WILL BE APPRECIATED.

YES, IT'S TIME,

TIME FOR ME TO FIND MY DESTINY.

(grunting)

HEY! WATCH IT!

-OH! -OH... (laughs)

DON'T WORRY, SEBASTIAN. WE'LL HELP YOU FIND YOUR DESTINY.

(upbeat music plays)

I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE IN BUSINESS FOR MYSELF,

AND THIS IS GONNA GET ME THE BUSINESS, MON.

COOL! WHAT IS IT?

A SEAWEED WEENIE IN A SEAWEED BUN.

I CALL IT... THE SEA DOG.

MM...

BONJOUR, MON AMIES,

YOU ARE MY FIRST CUSTOMERS. ENJOY, ENJOY!

I MUST GET BACK TO THE KITCHEN.

(sniffs) UGH!

-IT DOESN'T SMELL VERY GOOD. -WHOA!

OH... UH, THANKS, ARIEL.

I CAN'T WAIT TO TRY THIS.

(groaning)

SEBASTIAN'S SEA DOG IS TERRIBLE!

(swallows) UGH!

SHH! WE HAVE TO MAKE SEBASTIAN FEEL APPRECIATED.

OH, I APPRECIATE HIM,

BUT HIS SEA DOG OUGHT TO BE BURIED AT SEA.

COME ON, FLOUNDER.

PRETEND YOU LIKE SEBASTIAN'S SEA DOGS.

MM-MM! THESE SEA DOGS SURE ARE...

OH... SOMETHING. (chuckles)

-HM... -YEAH, SEAWEED NEVER TASTED BETTER.

OH! (laughs) THANK YOU!

-WHAT ARE THEY CALLED? -UH, SEA DOGS.

YOU SAY THEY'RE TASTY? LET ME HAVE ONE.

YES, ME, TOO.

-GIVE ME ONE, TOO! -I'LL TAKE EIGHT!

HERE YOU GO. ONE FOR YOU, YOU, YOU, YOU, YOU, YOU,

AND OF COURSE, YOU.

-OH, I WANT SOME OF THIS! -GIVE ME SOME OF THAT.

-(laughter) -Sebastian: OH, MON!

THIS IS GREAT, ARIEL, JUST GREAT!

AT LAST, I FEEL APPRECIATED.

-HEY, WHAT IS THIS? -THIS THING TASTES LIKE SEAWEED!

-YEAH! -LOUSY!

-WHAT A RIPTIDE! -BUT--BUT--BUT--

(groans) I SHOULD'VE KNOWN MY DESTINY WAS TO BE A BIG FLOP.

SORRY, SEBASTIAN.

IT'S OUR FAULT FOR PRETENDING WE LIKED YOUR SEA DOGS.

-YEAH, AND IT WASN'T EASY. -HERE, LET ME HELP YOU.

I GUESS I WAS A LITTLE HARD ON SEBASTIAN,

BUT I DID IT FOR THE GOOD OF ATLANTICA.

-OH, YEAH... -I'LL MAKE IT UP TO HIM WHEN WE GET HOME.

Fish: IT'S THE END OF THE SEA WORLD!

OH, THE RED TIDE!

WE'RE DOOMED!

(groans)

OH!

WHOA!

THE RED TIDE IS VERY BAD THIS YEAR, VERY DEADLY.

FORTUNATELY, THE CURRENT IS CARRYING IT AWAY FROM ATLANTICA.

OH, NO DANGER, AND NO NEED FOR ANYONE

IN ATLANTICA TO GET UPSET.

-OH! -I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!

-SEBASTIAN HAS RESIGNED! -WHY?

JUST BECAUSE I KEPT THE RED TIDE SECRET FROM HIM,

FOR HIS OWN GOOD, NO LESS!

-(groaning) -LET'S SEE, WHAT DOES IT--

-"I QUIT, THAT'S IT." -(groaning)

DOES LOYALTY MEAN NOTHING TO HIM?

-DO YOU-- -FEEL BAD ABOUT IT?

WELL, OF COURSE NOT. I'M A KING.

I CAN GET ALONG JUST FINE WITHOUT SEBASTIAN.

(sighs)

HM... UH...

DUDLEY, DO YOU KNOW HOW TO DO THE CALYPSO?

UH, SURE. UH...

(humming tunelessly)

? DOWN BY DE SEASHORE ?

UM, FORGET IT, DUDLEY.

(sighs)

I WONDER WHAT SEBASTIAN IS DOING.

AT LAST! I HAVE HEARD MY TRUE CALLING!

-I DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING. -SEBASTIAN MEANS HE'S FOUND THE PERFECT JOB.

AS A CAVE-TO-CAVE SALESCRAB, NOT ONLY AM I APPRECIATED,

I MEET NEW AND INTERESTING FOLKS ALL THE TIME.

-AH! -AH!

AND BEST OF ALL, I GET TO TRAVEL. AHH!

-(screaming) -(growling)

(both gasp)

-(screaming) -(growling)

HM... I GIVE UP.

THE JOB MARKET IS TOO DANGEROUS.

COME ON, SEBASTIAN, THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN'T DO.

? YOU'RE THE SPARK THAT SETS IN MOTION ?

? ALL THE MUSIC OF THE OCEAN ?

? YOU'RE THE FUEL THAT FEEDS THE FIRE ?

? INSPIRATION YOU INSPIRE ?

? IT'S YOUR STYLE TO WIN AFFECTION ?

? WHEN YOU SMILE, IT'S PURE PERFECTION ?

? IT SHINES THROUGH EVERYTHING YOU DO ?

? THAT'S SOMETHING SPECIAL ?

? SOMETHING YOU NEVER GIVE UP ?

? FACE THE MUSIC WITH A SMILE ?

I'M TRYING.

? NEVER GIVE UP AND IN A LITTLE WHILE ?

-HOW LONG IS THAT? -? WHEN THE WORLD'S KNOCK-KNOCKIN' ON YOUR SHELL ?

? WHEN OPPORTUNITY RINGS YOUR BELL ?

? GIVE UP THE THOUGHT OF EVER GIVING UP ?

? I'M NEVER GIVING UP ON YOU ?

-? YOU CAN DO IT ? -NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT!

-? NOTHING TO IT ? -THIS IS A TRUE FACT.

-? GIVE IT YOUR BEST ? -? THAT IS MY QUEST ?

? THIS CRAB IN HIS GLORY WILL WRITE HIS OWN STORY ?

? NEVER GIVE UP, FACE THE MUSIC WITH A SMILE ?

-YEAH, MON! -? NEVER GIVE UP ?

? AND IN A LITTLE WHILE ?

? WHEN THE WORLD STARTS KNOCKIN' ON MY SHELL ?

? WHEN OPPORTUNITY RINGS MY BELL ?

? I'M GIVING UP THE THOUGHT OF EVER GIVING UP ?

? I'M NEVER GIVING UP ON YOU ?

-WOW! I CAN DO IT! -? I KNEW IT ?

-THERE'S NOTHING TO IT! -? GO PURSUE IT ?

? I'M GIVING UP THE THOUGHT OF EVER GIVING UP ?

-? I'M NEVER GIVING UP ON YOU ? -ME, TOO!

? I'M NEVER, NEVER, EVER, EVER, NEVER, EVER GIVING UP ?

YOU ARE RIGHT, ARIEL.

THERE'S NOTHING I CAN'T DO.

(squeaking)

UM, DON'T YOU THINK CLEANING A WHALE'S TEETH IS A LITTLE DANGEROUS, SEBASTIAN?

AT LEAST HE APPRECIATES ME.

CLEANING THE TEETH OF THIS GREAT, GENTLE, AND APPRECIATIVE BEAST

IS WORTH ANY RISK.

Whale: AH... AH...

AH... AH...

AH... AH...

AH... AH... AH...

AH... AH... AH...

WAIT A SECOND! WAIT A MINUTE!

NO, DON'T DO THAT!

ARIEL! HELP!

AHHH...

(panting)

AH... AH...

(screaming)

AHH...

AHH...

AHHHHHHH...

(sneezes)

WHOA! HE SNEEZED US HALFWAY HOME!

(groans) I LIKE TO GET CAUGHT UP IN MY WORK,

BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

DON'T WORRY, SEBASTIAN.

REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAID-- "THERE'S NOTHING I CAN'T DO."

LET ME REPHRASE THAT, FLOUNDER.

I CAN'T DO NOTHING!

OH, SEBASTIAN, HOW CAN YOU TALK LIKE THAT?

OH, PARDON THE BAD GRAMMAR. I CAN'T DO ANYTHING!

NO, NO, NO! THERE'S A JOB YOU'RE PERFECT FOR.

OH, ARIEL, THE ONLY JOB I'M PERFECT FOR

IS ADVISOR TO THE KING.

ADVISOR TO THE KING. (gasps)

THAT'S IT! BUT... I QUIT.

REMEMBER, SEBASTIAN, THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN'T DO.

INCLUDING YOUR OLD JOB.

(gulps)

NOW, GO OUT THERE AND FIND YOUR DESTINY!

I'M GOING TO START A NEW LIFE BY GETTING BACK MY OLD LIFE!

(gasps) OH, YES. (chuckles)

AS YOUR KING, UH,

I PROCLAIM THIS CALYPSO WEEK.

-(chuckles weakly) -HM... THE KING IS GETTING ALONG JUST FINE

WITHOUT LITTLE, OLD, UNAPPRECIATED ME.

ARIEL, FLOUNDER! HAVE YOU SEEN, UH...

UH... HOW MUCH FUN WE'RE HAVING?

DADDY, WE'D LIKE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT SEBASTIAN.

I COULDN'T CARE LESS.

NOTHING'S HAPPENED TO HIM, HAS IT?

OH, NO, DADDY, HE'S FINE. IT'S JUST THAT--

THE RED TIDE IS COMING! THE RED TIDE IS COMING!

-(overlapping shouting) -THE RIDE TIDE IS COMING!

(both gasp)

Triton: THE CURRENT MUST HAVE SHIFTED.

EVACUATE IN ORDERLY FASHION!

-(shouting) -GET OUT!

DADDY! YOU CAN'T GO OUT THERE!

I MUST. SOME OF MY SUBJECTS MIGHT NEED HELP, LIKE DUDLEY.

HE'S TOO SLOW TO OUTSWIM THE RED TIDE.

SEE HE GETS TO SAFETY, ARIEL.

-BUT-- -QUICKLY!

UH, WHAT'S GOING-- WHOA!

(rumbling)

(gasps)

(screaming)

SEBASTIAN, SWIM AWAY!

NEVER, YOUR MAJESTY!

I... OOH! THAT HURTS!

(rumbling)

NO, THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO!

HEY!

(gasps, teeth chatter)

OH, PLEASE, DON'T HURT THE KING!

WE LOVE HIM!

PLEASE, HALT! THIS IS...

DON'T COME ANY FURTHER! STOP!

-(laughter, shouting) -HM. IT STOPPED.

-(high-pitched chattering) -WHY, THE RED TIDE

IS MADE UP OF LITTLE RED BUGS.

UH, MICROBES, ACTUALLY.

PLANT-LIKE FLAGELLATES, TO BE PRECISE.

DON'T YOU GUYS REALIZE YOU'RE POISONOUS TO FISH?

NO KIDDING? GEE, WE'RE SORRY.

NOBODY'S EVER STAYED AROUND LONG ENOUGH TO TELL US.

EXPLAINS A LOT, THOUGH, YOU KNOW, WHY EVERYBODY SWIMS AWAY.

WE THOUGHT WE SMELLED BAD OR SOMETHING.

NO, NO, NO. (sniffs) YOU SMELL FINE.

JUST STAY AWAY FROM US AND ALL OTHER LIVING THINGS.

HEY, NO PROBLEM. GLAD YOU TOLD US.

THIS WAY, GUYS! UH, HAVE A NICE DAY!

-A-HA! -YEAH!

(Ariel chuckles) OH, THAT SEBASTIAN.

HE CERTAINLY IS A... A GOOD TALKER.

-ISN'T HE, DADDY? -YES, HE DOES TALK A LOT.

I JUST HOPE YOU APPRECIATE HIM.

HM...

I WANT YOU TO COME BACK.

UM, WHAT DID YOU SAY, DADDY?

I THINK HE SAID HE HURT HIS BACK.

I SAID, I WANT YOU TO COME BACK, SEBASTIAN.

THE PALACE HASN'T BEEN AS MUCH FUN WITHOUT YOU.

OH! OF COURSE I WILL COME BACK!

BUT I MUST TELL YOU, YOUR MAJESTY,

I WAS WORKING AS A CHEF AND I TURNED A FEW HEADS.

AND A FEW STOMACHS.

ALSO, I WAS THE FIRST WHALE DENTIST TO MAKE MOUTH CALLS,

AND I WAS THIS CLOSE TO BEING CAVE-TO-CAVE SALESCRAB OF THE YEAR!

FIRST PRIZE WAS A CUDDLY LITTLE SET OF CLAW WARMERS.

(laughs) AH, YES, MON!

YOU ARE SO LUCKY TO HAVE ME BACK,

YOU LUCKY KING, YOU! (laughing)
