[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

HE'S COMING HOME!

WHO, DADDY?

APOLLO, HERO OF THE SARGASSO WARS.

SEBASTIAN, WE MUST DO SOMETHING SPECIAL

FOR THE GREAT APOLLO.

WELL, WE MOST CERTAINLY WILL, YOUR MAJESTY.

I WILL PREPARE...

A WELCOME HOME APOLLO SPEECH!

I WAS THINKING OF SOMETHING MORE LIKE, EH...

A PARADE.

WE LEARNED ABOUT APOLLO IN HISTORY CLASS.

APOLLO IS OUR GREATEST HERO.

HE WAS MY MOST TRUSTED SEA WARRIOR

BACK BEFORE YOU OR ANY OF YOUR SISTERS WERE BORN.

THE OCTOPINS WHO LIVED BEYOND THE SARGASSO SEA

WANTED TO DRIVE THE MER-PEOPLE FROM ATLANTICA.

YOU'RE NOT FROM THE SEA!

THE OCTOPINS WANTED OUR SPACE,

OUR CROPS, OUR CULTURE.

WATCH OUT!

SWIM FOR YOUR LIVES!

THEY HAD SOMEHOW ACQUIRED A TRIDENT

AS POWERFUL AS MINE.

APOLLO WAS WISE.

HE HID AMONG THE SARGASSO WEEDS OVERHEAD,

AWAITING HIS CHANCE.

THE BATTLE WAS WON,

AND APOLLO BECAME A HERO.

I CAN'T WAIT TO HAIL HIM!

HAIL APOLLO! HAIL APOLLO!

WHY DID APOLLO GO AWAY, DADDY?

TO EXPLORE THE SEVEN SEAS.

AN EXPLORER!

AH. AND I THOUGHT HE WAS ONLY A HERO.

[CHEERING]

HAIL APOLLO! HAIL APOLLO!

HAIL APOLLO! HAIL APOLLO!

HAIL APOLLO! HAIL APOLLO!

HAIL APOLLO, HAIL APOLLO!

HAIL APOLLO! HAIL APOLLO!

WELL, WELL, WELL.

APOLLO'S BACK.

BOY, DO I EVER OWE HIM ONE!

HEY... WHERE DID EVERYBODY GO?

WHAT ABOUT MY WELCOME HOME APOLLO SPEECH?

THEN, AFTER I EXPLORED THE SEVENTH SEA,

I BEGAN TO MISS ATLANTICA.

WELL, WELCOME HOME, APOLLO.

YOU'RE THE BRAVEST OF THE BRAVE.

YES, YOUR MAJESTY.

HARDLY A TIDE GOES BY THAT I'M NOT REMINDED OF IT.

AND SO YOU SHOULD BE.

TOMORROW THERE WILL BE A BANQUET,

AND THEN WE'RE DEDICATING A STATUE OF YOU IN THE COURTYARD,

AND THEN--

THANK YOU, YOUR MAJESTY,

BUT I REALLY MUST BE GOING.

GOING?

MY, UM, NEXT ADVENTURE.

ADVENTURE!

I HOPE TO FIND VALHALLA,

THE LEGENDARY WORLD WHERE THE MER-VIKINGS DWELL.

VALHALLA! THE LAND OF HEROES.

COOL!

CAN WE GO TOO, DADDY?

OH, I DON'T... WELL, UM...

YOU KNOW I DON'T LIKE YOUR ADVENTURING, ARIEL.

BUT WE COULDN'T BE SAFER.

I MEAN WE'D BE TRAVELING WITH THE GREAT APOLLO!

YEAH! SAFE AS WE COULD BE.

THAT'S TRUE.

AND YOU MIGHT LEARN A FEW THINGS

ABOUT TRAVELING IN THE WILDS.

OH, WELL, I--

THEY WOULDN'T BE ANY TROUBLE, WOULD THEY, APOLLO?

UHHH... NO, BUT--

THEN I WOULD CONSIDER IT A PERSONAL FAVOR

IF YOU WOULD TAKE THEM WITH YOU.

I-- I-- WOULD... BE

HONORED, SIRE.

OH, THANK YOU, DADDY!

YEAH, THANK YOU, DADDY-- ER, YOUR DADDYNESS, SIR.

[SIGHS]

FAREWELL, MY KING.

FAREWELL, DADDY.

FAREWELL, MY HIGHNESS.

YOUR HIGHNESS.

UH, BYE.

FAREWELL, MY BOLD ADVENTURERS.

"IT IS WITH GLORIOUS AND MOST ELOQUENT REGARD

"THAT I WELCOME HOME THE GREAT APOLLO,

HERO OF THE--" HMM.

YOU MISSED HIM AGAIN, SEBASTIAN.

YI.

OH, MON.

I LIKE APOLLO,

BUT... HE SURE DOESN'T SAY VERY MUCH.

YOU KNOW BRAVE GUYS, ALWAYS THE STRONG, SILENT TYPE.

AAH! AAH!

GIANT OCTOPUS!

APOLLO, LOOK OUT!

ARIEL, IT'S AFTER YOU!

IT'S NOT A GIANT OCTOPUS!

IT'S A GIANT PLANT.

YEAH. HA HA.

THERE WAS NO REASON TO BE SCARED.

SLOW SAND!

HUH? SLOW SAND?

IT'S... LIKE QUICKSAND,

ONLY, WELL... SLOWER.

WHAT DO WE DO?

FLOUNDER, TRY TO PULL US OUT.

[GRUNTING]

IT'S NO USE!

I'M NOT STRONG ENOUGH.

THIS SLOW SAND...

ISN'T THAT SLOW.

FLOUNDER, BEHIND YOU!

WHAT?

AAH!

ARIEL, IT'S JUST A PLANT, REMEMBER?

TRY TO PUSH THE VINES CLOSER TO US. HURRY!

OKAY.

GOT IT.

IT'S... IT'S WORKING!

I'M... I'M TOO HEAVY.

HANG ON, APOLLO. WE'LL HELP YOU.

THANK YOU, MY FRIENDS.

I-- I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH BRAVERY.

AW, COME ON, APOLLO.

THINGS LIKE THAT MUST HAPPEN ALL THE TIME

TO A HERO LIKE YOU.

NOT REALLY.

WELL, THEY WILL IF YOU KEEP HANGING AROUND WITH US.

THEN PERHAPS THE TWO OF YOU

SHOULD, UH, RETURN TO ATLANTICA.

OH, WE AREN'T AFRAID, APOLLO.

EVERYBODY KNOWS THE LEGEND.

ONE MUST BE BRAVE TO FIND VALHALLA.

ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS CROSS THE PLAINS OF DREAD,

THEN GET PAST THE FUNNELS OF FURY.

I CAN'T WAIT.

HE'S SO BRAVE!

YEAH. BUT HE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE HAVING MUCH FUN.

SO, APOLLO'S SEARCHING FOR THE LAND OF HEROES, HUH?

NO ONE EVER COMES BACK FROM VALHALLA!

HAH HAH HAH HAH!

OH, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THIS.

[APOLLO] WE CAN'T POSSIBLY

GET PAST THE FUNNELS OF FURY.

WE'D BETTER TURN BACK.

OH, YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO PROTECT US, APOLLO.

WE CAN GET BY WHEN IT PULSES.

COME ON!

OHH.

HMM.

NOW IF I CAN JUST CONVINCE MY FRIENDS THE OCTOPINS

THAT APOLLO IS OUT OF THE WAY...

HAH HAH HAH.

[ARIEL] VALHALLA!

OH, IT'S BEAUTIFUL!

AND WE FOUND IT TOGETHER.

HEY!

I--I CAN'T MOVE!

EHH! OH!

HA HA HA. HA HA.

DON'T WORRY, FLOUNDER.

APOLLO WILL GET US OUT OF THIS.

YEAH.

OKAY, WHAT DO WE DO FIRST?

ARIEL, FLOUNDER, I CAN'T LIE TO YOU ANYMORE.

I'M NOT THE HERO EVERYONE THINKS I AM.

WHEN THE OCTOPINS ATTACKED,

I WAS TERRIFIED.

I HID LIKE A COWARD IN THE WEEDS BENEATH THE SARGASSO SEA.

I GOT HOPELESSLY TANGLED...

AND FELL LIKE A STONE.

THE BATTLE WAS WON.

ALL HAIL APOLLO!

I BECAME A HERO.

I WANTED TO TELL THEM I DIDN'T DESERVE THE FAME,

THE TRIBUTE, BUT I DIDN'T HAVE THE COURAGE.

I BECAME A WANDERER JUST TO HIDE FROM EVERYONE.

I'M NOT REALLY AN EXPLORER OR A HERO.

DON'T COUNT ON ME TO SAVE US.

DO WE HAVE A PLAN "B"?

PREPARE, OCTOPINS. PREPARE TO BATTLE THE ATLANTICANS

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 4,000 TIDES.

BUT THIS TIME WE WILL WIN

BECAUSE THIS TIME WE'LL HAVE EIGHT MAGIC TRIDENTS,

THOUGH YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO MENTALLY CALL YOUR TRIDENTS

OR FLY AROUND WITH THEM THE WAY TRITON CAN WITH HIS.

WE WILL WIN THIS TIME...

BY SHEER FORCE OF NUMBERS.

WAIT! WHAT ABOUT THE GREAT APOLLO?

REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME.

GLAD YOU BROUGHT THAT UP.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT MR. HERO.

I SAW HIM ENTER THE CAVE TO VALHALLA.

[GASPS]

INSTANT REPLAY.

AS YOU ALL KNOW,

VALHALLA HAS MY FAVORITE KIND OF CAVE ENTRANCE--

THE KIND NO ONE EVER COMES OUT OF ALIVE.

[LAUGHING SINISTERLY]

YOU MUST BE SO DISAPPOINTED IN ME.

THAT'S NOT TRUE, APOLLO.

EVERYBODY GETS SCARED.

YEAH.

IT'S NOTHIN' TO BE ASHAMED OF.

THAT DOESN'T MAKE YOU A COWARD.

I WANTED TO FIND VALHALLA TO LOSE MYSELF IN THE LAND OF HEROES.

I'M SO SORRY I BROUGHT YOU TWO INTO IT.

AW, WE'RE YOUR FRIENDS, APOLLO, NO MATTER WHAT.

[DOOR SLAMS]

UH-OH. HERE COMES THE "WHAT".

WHERE ARE THESE OUTSIDERS?

IN THE DUNGEON, SIRE.

CAN WE TOSS THEM TO THE SHARKS?

TOSS THEM TO THE SHARKS.

DON'T BE RIDICULOUS, NAGNAR.

WHEW!

WE WILL TOSS THEM TO THE BARRACUDAS.

THAT'S GOOD.

THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

SILENCE!

WE ARE NOT BARBARIANS.

WHEW!

WE'LL HANG THEM BY THEIR TAILS OVER A VOLCANIC LAVA PIT

AND MELT THEIR FACES OFF.

THEY'LL BE SORRY THEY EVER CAME TO VALHALLA.

[GASP]

APOLLO, IS THAT YOU?

YOU KNOW ME?

EVERYONE KNOWS OF THE GREAT APOLLO.

DOES THIS MEAN WE WON'T GET TO MELT OFF THE FACES?

I'VE SEEN STATUES OF YOU, APOLLO,

AND HEARD THE LEGEND OF YOUR BRAVERY.

YOU ARE A HERO, EVEN HERE IN VALHALLA,

THE LAND OF OF HEROES.

THEN YOU'LL LET US GO?

YES.

WHEW!

AS SOON AS YOU SLAY THE TERRIBLE SEA DRAGON.

AAH! AAH! AAH!

[GROWLING]

OOH, THE DRAGON SOUNDS LIKE HE'S IN A GOOD MOOD.

THAT-THAT'S GOOD.

NO, THAT'S BAD. WHEN HE'S IN A GOOD MOOD, HE LIKES TO EAT.

THAT'S BAD.

NO, THAT'S GOOD. IT'S MORE FUN FOR HIM, MORE FUN FOR US.

[LAUGHING SINISTERLY]

I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE LAND OF HEROES.

HEROES ARE ALWAYS LESS THAN THEY APPEAR TO BE.

YEEEAH!

[GROWLING]

SWIM, MY OCTOPINS, SWIM!

LET'S CARAVAN.

BY SUNSET, ATLANTICA WILL BE OURS...

BUT MOSTLY MINE.

OH, I CAN'T WAIT TO...

SETTLE MY ROYAL SELF

INTO TRITON'S NICE, COZY THRONE.

FIRST THING I'LL DO-- IS GET RID OF THAT LOUDMOUTH CRAB

THAT'S ALWAYS HANGING AROUND THE PALACE.

HOW ABOUT THIS, YOUR MAJESTY?

AHEM. [PEEP]

"IT IS WITH GREAT HUMBLENESS

"THAT I TELL YOU ALL

I AM THE GREATEST CRAB IN THE WORLD."

IT'S A "WELCOME HOME, APOLLO" SPEECH. REMEMBER?

OH! EEE-OOH! THAT'S RIGHT.

YOUR MAJESTY, THE OCTOPINS ARE ON THE MOVE AGAIN.

THERE GOES MY SPEECH.

WE WILL FACE THEM AS WE DID 20 YEARS AGO...

AT THE SARGASSO SEA.

OOH, THAT WAS GOOD ONE.

[LAUGHING] I THINK HE WAS GETTIN' A LITTLE MAD.

ME, TOO.

[GROWL]

[GROWL]

SHH!

DID YOU SLAY THE DRAGON ALREADY?

[GROWLING]

GUESS NOT.

[GROWLING]

LET ME OUT!

HE IS TRULY A HERO.

WHAT MAKES HIM SO BRAVE?

MAYBE IT'S THAT HEROIC MUSIC.

[HEROIC MUSIC PLAYS]

I THINK WE CAN MAKE IT.

I HOPE APOLLO IS ALL RIGHT.

I WAS EXPECTING MORE EXCITEMENT.

HURRY UP!

[CHEERING AND WHISTLING]

? ALL HAIL APOLLO ?

? DEFENDER OF THE SEA ?

? HAIL APOLLO ?

? A FEARLESS FRIEND IS HE ?

? HIS MIGHT WILL MAKE YOU SWALLOW ?

? HIS FOES WILL FALL OR FLEE ?

? HAIL APOLLO ?

? DEFENDER OF THE SEA ?

THEY HAVE TOO MANY TRIDENTS.

RETREAT!

HOW I HATE THAT TRITON!

HE HASN'T SEEN THE LAST OF ME.

NO! SOMEDAY I'M GOING TO RULE TRITON'S KINGDOM,

OR MY NAME ISN'T URSULA...

QUEEN OF ATLANTICA.

HMM...

HAS A NICE STING TO IT.

[EVIL LAUGHTER]

HAIL TRITON!

HAIL APOLLO!

HAIL ARIEL!

HAIL FLOUNDER!

YES!

ARIEL, YOU HAVE RESCUED ME.

AW... WE KINDA RESCUED EACH OTHER ON THIS ADVENTURE.

YES, BUT I MEANT YOU HELPED ME.

CARING ABOUT YOU AND FLOUNDER HELPED ME FIND MY COURAGE.

WELL... I'M OFF ON MY NEXT ADVENTURE!

AND THIS TIME, I'M GOING TO ENJOY IT.

WAIT, MON! MY SPEECH!

MY SPEECH!

WAIT!

MISSED HIM AGAIN.
