These are stories about people

with impossible problems.

_________________________________
Samson loved Delilah.
_________________________________

Aw, that was really impossible.
_________________________________

Romeo et Juliet, oh, impossible.
_________________________________

(CHUCKLES) But the most impossible
of all the stories...
_________________________________
is impossibly small.

_________________________________
The story of Thumbelina.
_________________________________

Once upon a time,

there was a lonely woman...

_________________________________
who longed to have a child

to call her own.

_________________________________
One day she paid a visit
to a good witch,

_________________________________
who gave her a tiny barleycorn.

_________________________________
Ah. "Plant it in a flowerpot," she says,
_________________________________

"and see what happens."
_________________________________

The woman did as she was told,

_________________________________
and by and by, it began growing,

_________________________________
until at last...

_________________________________
Oh, what a pretty flower!

_________________________________
(YAWNS)
_________________________________

Hello, Mother.
_________________________________

-(GIGGLES)
-I will call you "Thumbelina."
_________________________________

JACQUIMO: Thumbelina.

But can you imagine the troubles...
_________________________________

for a little girl no bigger
than your thumb, hmm?

_________________________________
(ROOSTER CROWS)
_________________________________
(SINGING) Who is the girl no bigger

than a bumblebee?

_________________________________
(QUACKS)
_________________________________
Who is the angel with a funny name?

_________________________________

We don't know where she's from
_________________________________

Or how she came to be

_________________________________
But happy was the day she came

_________________________________
-(QUACKS)
-(BLEATS)
_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
She's a funny little squirt

_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
Tiny angel in a skirt

_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
First she's mending, then baking

_________________________________
Pretending she's making things up

_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
(CLUCKING)
_________________________________

Who would believe the wonder

of the world I see?

_________________________________
Each little minute brings a new surprise

_________________________________
There's only one peculiar thing

that bothers me

_________________________________
Seems I'm the only one my size

_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
Think of all you'll save on meals

_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
Maybe if you had high heels

_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
If you stay here forever

_________________________________
We know that we'll never be glum

But I get out in the nick

_________________________________
Thumbelina

_________________________________
Fortune sometimes has tricked us

_________________________________
But this time it's picked us

_________________________________
Oh, a plum's so big and a fig's so big

_________________________________
And they call it a twig
_________________________________
But a twig's so big

_________________________________
It's a great big world

Now, here's a story about the noble dog,

_________________________________
who saved the king
from the wicked wizard.
_________________________________
(PANTING, GROWLS)
_________________________________

Once upon a time...
_________________________________

THUMBELINA: Oh, Mother, please.
_________________________________

Are there any stories about...
_________________________________
about little people?
_________________________________

Well, as a matter of fact,

there are, Thumbelina. Look.

_________________________________
THUMBELINA: Oh!
_________________________________

(GASPS) They are little!
_________________________________
Just like me!

_________________________________

But... But what are those?
_________________________________

They're wings, Thumbelina.
_________________________________

These are fairies, and fairies
have wings so they can fly.
_________________________________
(THUMBELINA GASPS)
_________________________________
Mother, have you ever seen a fairy?

_________________________________
-Well, I thought I did once.

-Really?
_________________________________

MOTHER: (CHUCKLES)

Yes. And here,

_________________________________
the fairy prince and princess
are having a wedding.

_________________________________
And they live happily ever after.

_________________________________
(CHUCKLES) Oh. Usually, dear.
_________________________________

Hmm. I suppose it works best...
_________________________________

if, uh... If... If two people
are about the same size.
_________________________________

Yes. Of course.
_________________________________

Yes. (GROANS)
_________________________________

Well, that's not fair. I... I must be...

_________________________________
the only little person
in the whole world.
_________________________________

I wish I were big.
_________________________________
Oh, no, Thumbelina.
_________________________________
No. Don't ever wish to be anything

but what you are.
_________________________________

(BARKING, PANTING)
_________________________________

MOTHER: Bedtime, my dear.
_________________________________

It's been a long day.
_________________________________

You must go to sleep now.
_________________________________

Sleep tight.
_________________________________

-Mother?

-Mmm-hmm?
_________________________________

Would you please leave the book open?
_________________________________

Of course, dear.
_________________________________

I want to look at the pictures
while I go to sleep.

_________________________________

-There.

-Good night, Mother.
_________________________________

Good night, Thumbelina.
_________________________________

You take good care of her, Hero.

(MURMURING)

-(MOTHER CHUCKLES)
-(PANTING)
_________________________________

Hmm.
_________________________________

(SINGING) I know there's someone
_________________________________

Somewhere

_________________________________
Someone

_________________________________
Who's sure to find me

_________________________________
Soon

_________________________________
After the rain goes

_________________________________
There are rainbows

_________________________________
I'll find my rainbow

_________________________________
Soon

_________________________________
Soon it won't be just pretend

_________________________________
Soon, a happy ending

_________________________________
Love, can you hear me?

_________________________________
If you're near me

_________________________________
Sing your song

_________________________________
Sure and strong

_________________________________
And
_________________________________
Soon

_________________________________
I wonder if there really are
such things as fairies.

_________________________________
Hmm.
_________________________________
(TWITTERING)
_________________________________
(WHOOSHING)
_________________________________

Oh, my dear.

Don't look now, dear husband,

_________________________________
but our son is missing again.
_________________________________
So he is. (SIGHS)
_________________________________

I think he feels a bit silly riding

that white butterfly we gave him.
_________________________________

Well, why should he feel silly?
_________________________________

It doesn't quite makes the wrong
impression on the young ladies.

_________________________________

Well, what about the
impression on the court?
_________________________________

Colbert, my love, it is the autumn today,
_________________________________
and we've begun
the golding of the leaves.

_________________________________

-He should be here.

-Tabitha.
_________________________________

He'll hurt himself.
_________________________________

I hope he's not out buzzing

the vales on that wretched bumblebee.
_________________________________

He is the crown prince,

for heaven's sake.
_________________________________

COLBERT: (CHUCKLES)

Tabitha, dear,
_________________________________
have you forgotten
what it's like to be 16?

_________________________________

_________________________________

(THUMBELINA VOCALIZING)
_________________________________

(CHUCKLES) May I cut in?

_________________________________

-(GASPS)

-No, no. Wait. Wait.
_________________________________
Come back. Oh, I... I apologize.

_________________________________

I didn't mean to frighten you. (SIGHS)
_________________________________

Now will you come out?

Well, say something, will ya?

Oh, it's a lovely name.
_________________________________
Thank you.
_________________________________

I'm Cornelius.
_________________________________

Cornelius? (GIGGLES)

_________________________________

Well, that's a funny name.

Oh. I... I mean, it's perfect.
_________________________________

Uh....
_________________________________

Uh, tell me about the fairy court.
_________________________________

Is there a... A prince?

_________________________________

Yes.
_________________________________

That's Buzzby, my bumble.
_________________________________

See, I left him on the sill.
_________________________________

He doesn't like staying
in one place too long.

say something? Come on.

That is a very bad day, Mademoiselle.

Oh, you are all very brave. Thank you,

Oh, do you love the prince?

Well, from the treetops
I could see my house.

Then I'd know if I'm traveling

in the right direction to get home.

Ah, gee. I don't know.

That would be

Somewhere

_________________________________
Someone

_________________________________
Who's sure to find her

_________________________________
Soon

_________________________________
After the rain goes

_________________________________
-There are rainbows

-(WHINES, SNIFFLES)
_________________________________
She'll find the rainbow

_________________________________
Soon

_________________________________
Soon my breaking heart will mend

_________________________________
Soon a happy ending

_________________________________
Troubles behind her
_________________________________

I will find her

_________________________________
Homeward bound

_________________________________
Safe and sound

And soon

MS. FIELDMOUSE:
Feeling better, my dear?
_________________________________
(SNIFFING)
_________________________________
Ohh!

_________________________________

-Where... Where am I?

-In my kitchen.
_________________________________

I'm Ms. Fieldmouse,

and we are snug and safe underground.
_________________________________

I'm... I'm underground?
_________________________________

Yes, dearie. Three feet under.
_________________________________

I dug it myself with my own two hands.

_________________________________

Here. Drink this.
_________________________________

At least that toad
won't find me down here.
_________________________________

(LAUGHS) You know,
there's something I don't understand.
_________________________________

Did you really think you could

survive the winter in that old shoe?
_________________________________

(LAUGHS) Honestly!
_________________________________

-I wanna go home.

-Well,
_________________________________
I'm afraid you'll just have to wait here
till spring, Thumbelina.

_________________________________

You know my name.
_________________________________
Oh, that was easy. I know much more,

_________________________________
like you were engaged
to the fairy prince.

_________________________________
Um, Cornelius, I believe?
_________________________________

Well, almost.
_________________________________

-Oh, that is so sad.

-What?
_________________________________

That he was found stone-cold-frozen
dead in the snow.

_________________________________

-THUMBELINA: (GASPS) No.
-But, of course, you knew that?
_________________________________

No. No.
_________________________________
Cornelius. No!
_________________________________

MS. FIELDMOUSE: That is so sad.

THUMBELINA: No, it's not true.
_________________________________
No!
_________________________________

(THUMBELINA
CONTINUES SOBBING)
_________________________________
Hmm.
_________________________________

MS. FIELDMOUSE:
Oh, Thumbelina, forgive me.

_________________________________
Sometimes I just blurt things out
without thinking.

_________________________________

You're still young though.

There'll be another.
_________________________________

He was perfect.
_________________________________

Nobody's perfect.
_________________________________

-Cornelius was the only one...

-Now, put this on.
_________________________________
We'll take these corn cakes to Mr. Mole.

_________________________________

-He lives just down the tunnel.

-I'd rather not.
_________________________________

Oh. I saved your life this very day,

and you'd rather not?
_________________________________

(SIGHS) Very well.
_________________________________

Oh, one more thing.
_________________________________

Is it true that you have
a beautiful voice?
_________________________________
Hmm?
_________________________________

I don't feel much like singing.
_________________________________

Oh, you must sing for Mr. Mole.
_________________________________

He loves sweet things.
_________________________________
Come on.
_________________________________

Mr. Mole loves his corn cakes.
_________________________________

Cornelius was looking for me.
_________________________________
(SNIFFLES)
_________________________________

That's what must have happened.

-Good afternoon, Mr. Mole.

-Oh, yes.
_________________________________

(SNIFFING)
_________________________________

Ms. Fieldmouse.
_________________________________

Oh, good afternoon. Lovely day.
_________________________________

I want you to meet
a new friend of mine, Thumbelina.

_________________________________

She just came down from... Up there.
_________________________________

Up there? Up there.
_________________________________

Terrible place. (SNIFFING)

_________________________________

Mmm.
_________________________________

How do you do, Miss Thumbelina?

Pleased to make your acquaintance.
_________________________________

Uh, how do you do, Mr. Mole?
_________________________________

Come in, come in.
_________________________________
Don't touch anything.
These are my things.

_________________________________

We brought some corn cakes for you.
_________________________________

Just you try one, Mr. Mole.
_________________________________

Ooh. Mmm. (SLURPING)
_________________________________
Mmm. (LIPS SMACK)
_________________________________

Very nice.
_________________________________
Well, tell us about... Up there.
_________________________________

I went up once. Nearly blinded me.
_________________________________

Hurried as fast as I could back down
where it's dark and decent.

_________________________________

Oh, but... Well....
-Hmm?
_________________________________

I love the light.
_________________________________
I hate it. End of story.
_________________________________

Story? Thumbelina,
tell Mr. Mole a story...
_________________________________

a lovely, sad story.
_________________________________

Well, uh...
_________________________________

MR. MOLE: Stand right there
where I can see you.
_________________________________

Okay, um...
_________________________________

Oh, I love love stories, don't you?
_________________________________

Once upon a time,
there was, um, the sun.
_________________________________

Sing it, Thumbelina. Sing.
_________________________________

-She sings?

-Shh!
_________________________________

Oh. Um...
_________________________________

(SINGING) Once there was the sun
_________________________________
-Bright and warm and wonderful

-Ah!
_________________________________

Shining like the love within my heart
_________________________________

Now there's no more sun
_________________________________

Winter has killed everything
_________________________________

And although it's dark December
_________________________________

Forever
_________________________________

I'll remember sun

_________________________________
Winter has killed everything,
_________________________________
even the sun.
_________________________________

MS. FIELDMOUSE: Wonderful story.
_________________________________
Dreadful thing, the sun.

_________________________________

And now I have a story to tell you.
_________________________________

Just this morning, as I was out
for my early morning stroll,

_________________________________
I stumbled across the most
extraordinary thing in my tunnel...

_________________________________

a dead bird.
_________________________________

-MS. FIELDMOUSE: No!

-Yes.
_________________________________
How do you suppose

a dead bird got into my tunnel?
_________________________________

Oh, well, I'm certainly glad
I'm not a bird,

_________________________________
bothering the world with endless

twittering, twittering, twittering.
_________________________________

My, yes.
_________________________________
Oh. There it is.
_________________________________

(GASPS) Oh!
_________________________________

Whatever do you suppose
happened to him?
_________________________________

Well, there's one less bird

to twitter, twitter, twitter up there.
_________________________________

Oh, Jacquimo.
_________________________________
Jacquimo, my dear, dear friend.

_________________________________

-MS. FIELDMOUSE: Tender little thing.

-Yes.
_________________________________
Quite lovely. (CLEARS THROAT)

_________________________________

Ms. Fieldmouse,
could I have a word with you?
_________________________________

I wish you would.
_________________________________
Ms. Fieldmouse,
_________________________________

you know I have been meaning

to take a wife for some time now.
_________________________________

What a lovely idea.
_________________________________

I find myself sometimes,
_________________________________
um, you know, uh,

lonely for companionship.
_________________________________

What could be more natural?
_________________________________

-And I wonder if...

-Yes?
_________________________________

If I could ask you to help me

persuade Miss Thumbelina...
_________________________________

(STUTTERS) to be my wife?
_________________________________

Thumbelina?
_________________________________

(CHUCKLES)
She could keep me company...
_________________________________

and tell me stories, don't you think?
_________________________________

Yes.
_________________________________

And for your service in helping

to arrange this match,
_________________________________

I will reward you handsomely.
(BLOWS)
_________________________________

Oh, I will. I will.
_________________________________

Dear Ms. Fieldmouse.
_________________________________

Leave the arrangements to me.
_________________________________

Thumbelina.
_________________________________

I... I hear your heart.
_________________________________
You're not dead, no.
_________________________________

Jacquimo.
_________________________________
Jacquimo.
_________________________________

I'll come back... Tonight.
_________________________________

MS. FIELDMOUSE: Thumbelina?
_________________________________

-(CHATTERING)
-One ice-cold prince coming up.
_________________________________
-Where do you want him?

-There.
_________________________________
He looks dead.
_________________________________

Dead? Dead, schmead!

What difference does it make?
_________________________________

-You killed him.

-Okay, okay, okay. Have it your way.
_________________________________

I killed him. There. You satisfied? Huh?
_________________________________

Huh? Forget the prince, all right?
_________________________________

Now, uh, what if I were to tell you...
_________________________________

I know where Thumbelina is
right now, huh?
_________________________________

What if I was to tell you that?

Would you give me my wings?
_________________________________

I'm glad you kill prince. It's a deal.
_________________________________

Good.
_________________________________
My sources tell me...
_________________________________

she's buried alive with the mole.
_________________________________

Mole?
_________________________________
What mole?
_________________________________

If I were you, I'd get my tail

over there and save her.
_________________________________

Go. Get hopping. Oh, and give me my
wings, would you, please? My wings.

_________________________________
Aah! Where does mole live?
_________________________________

I go kick down his door.
_________________________________

Oh! Ooh, ooh! Stop! Stop! Stop!
Let go of my arm!
_________________________________

What's going on? Where are we going?
_________________________________

We go rescue Thumbelina
from the mole.
_________________________________

Mole? Are you out of your mind?

I'm not going down there.

_________________________________
You know what that guy
does to beetles?
_________________________________

Do you have any idea what he does?

He stuffs 'em.
_________________________________
He stuffs 'em and he pins
'em on his walls.

_________________________________

Quiet!
_________________________________

Look, why don't you just go home and
marry a toad? You ever think about that?

_________________________________

You find yourself a pretty toad
with warts and you marry her.

_________________________________

Quiet!
_________________________________

Toads, toads.
I gotta be stuck with toads.

_________________________________
They've got the fairy prince.
We've got to help him.
_________________________________

Come on, guys. Let's build a fire.
_________________________________

MS. FIELDMOUSE: All the same,

we'll make it a thrilling wedding.
_________________________________

Why, it's a wonderful match.
_________________________________
Mr. Mole is the richest rodent
for miles around.

_________________________________

Educated, well-dressed,
_________________________________
highly thought of.
_________________________________

Never mind that he can't see.
_________________________________

(LAUGHS) That's all the better.
_________________________________

How can I possibly marry Mr. Mole?

I don't love him.
_________________________________

Love?
_________________________________
Love is what we read about

in books, my dear.
_________________________________
(CHUCKLES)
_________________________________

(SINGING) "Here Comes the Bride"
_________________________________

Is a lovely little ditty
_________________________________

But marrying for love

is a foolish thing to do
_________________________________

'Cause love won't pay the mortgage
_________________________________

Or put porridge in your bowl
_________________________________

Dearie
_________________________________
Marry the mole
_________________________________

True, it's a fact that he's not exactly witty
_________________________________

He's blinder than a bat
_________________________________

But at least his eyes are blue
_________________________________

His breath may be alarming
_________________________________

But he's charming for a troll
_________________________________

Dearie
_________________________________
Marry the mole
_________________________________

Romeo and Juliet
_________________________________

Were very much in love

when they were wed
_________________________________

They honored every vow
_________________________________

So where are they now?
_________________________________

They're dead, dead
_________________________________

Very, very dead
_________________________________

Poor Thumbelina,

your brain's so itty-bitty
_________________________________

I hate to seem a pest,

but I know what's best for you
_________________________________

Just think of all the ways

that you can decorate a hole
_________________________________

Take my advice
_________________________________

I'll bring the rice
_________________________________

Dearie
_________________________________
Marry the mole
_________________________________

Marry the mole
_________________________________

Marry that mole
_________________________________

"M" is for money

_________________________________

-Oh!

-L-E
_________________________________
(WIND HOWLING)
_________________________________

Please be warm, dear friend.
_________________________________
Please live.
_________________________________

Poor little swallow.
_________________________________
I'm sorry for all
the trouble I've caused you.

_________________________________

I know now...
_________________________________

there's no place in this big world

for little people.
_________________________________

We...

_________________________________
We cannot do impossible things.
_________________________________

Perhaps I should marry the mole.
_________________________________

He could take care of me. He could.
_________________________________
Hmm.
_________________________________
Hmm.
_________________________________

I will.
_________________________________

(SIGHS) I will marry the mole.
_________________________________
(GROANING)
_________________________________

You are joking.
_________________________________

Jacquimo?
_________________________________

Marry the prince.
_________________________________

Jacquimo, you're awake.
_________________________________

Oh! Oh, Jacquimo.
_________________________________
(GRUNTING)

_________________________________

Oh! Oh, I'm sorry.
_________________________________

I have a thorn in my wing.
_________________________________

A thorn?
_________________________________
Well, let me see.
_________________________________

-Oh, my goodness.
-(GRUNTING)
_________________________________
Well, hold still.
_________________________________

(GRUNTS) Ah!
_________________________________
There. (KISSES)

_________________________________

Oh, now it will get better.
_________________________________

-Don't get up.

-No, no.
_________________________________
I go to find the Vale of the Fairies
and the prince.

_________________________________

(LAUGHS) You silly bird.
_________________________________
Don't you understand?
_________________________________

Get on my back. Get on my back.
_________________________________

I will take you to the Green Forest.
_________________________________

Be realistic.
_________________________________
Cornelius is gone. I...
_________________________________

-I will find him.

-Jacquimo, don't.
_________________________________
-Remember...
-Jacquimo...
_________________________________

(SINGING) You're sure to do
impossible things

_________________________________

-Stop! Stop it, Jacquimo!
-If you follow your heart

_________________________________

No.

Oh, Jacquimo,
_________________________________
stop torturing me.
_________________________________

Cornelius is dead.
_________________________________

(GRUNTING)

_________________________________

There. Does he know Mr. Mole's
gonna marry Thumbelina?

_________________________________

We'll find out when the ice melts.

Then we'll tell him.
