_________________________________
Who are we talking about?
_________________________________
BOTH: Oh!
_________________________________
Yeah, that little fish who
crossed the ocean to find her parents.
_________________________________
-(LAUGHING) Her parents!
-(LAUGHS)
_________________________________
Oh, yeah. No, no, I've known her
since she was a cute little guppy.
_________________________________
When I met her, I don't know, I find of
got a strange first impression.
_________________________________
I'll be honest, the second impression
wasn't much better.
_________________________________
Well, I don't...
_________________________________
Look, I don't want to brag,
but I could sense her before I saw her.
_________________________________
No, I'm not kidding.
_________________________________
Yeah, I have this thing
called echolocation.
_________________________________
Well, it's...
_________________________________
You know what, rather than explain it,
I can give you a little.
_________________________________
Sure. Uh, if you could just give me
a little bit of room.
_________________________________
Thank you so much.
_________________________________
(CLEARS THROAT)
_________________________________
Okay.
(CONTINUES CLEARING THROAT)
_________________________________
She never said a mean word to anyone.
_________________________________
-Always kind.
-Always kind.
_________________________________
-Always forgiving.
-Always forgiving.
_________________________________
-Yeah, a giant heart.
-Giant heart.
_________________________________
Yeah.
_________________________________
(CLEARING THROAT)
Okay, here we go.
_________________________________
(VOCALIZING)
_________________________________
Just a sec.
_________________________________
(CONTINUES VOCALIZING)
_________________________________
Just a sec.
_________________________________
This never happens.
_________________________________
Somebody wearing metal?
_________________________________
You know, it's funny,
I thought she didn't like me at first
_________________________________
'cause she could never
remember my name.
_________________________________
But then I realized
she never remembered anyone's name.
_________________________________
(CONTINUES VOCALIZING)
You have got to want it.
_________________________________
You got to want it. Get in there!
_________________________________
(HIGH-PITCHED VOCALIZING)
_________________________________
Here we go.
_________________________________
Now, I'm feeling it. And there it goes.
_________________________________
I don't know what's happening,
and I apologize.
_________________________________
Here's the thing though.
I don't usually care for upbeat so much.
_________________________________
but she grew on me, okay?
_________________________________
She tends to grow on you,
whether you like it or not.
_________________________________
I am quite large.
_________________________________
She used to play
Hide and Go Seek in my mouth.
_________________________________
Olly, olly, oxen free.
_________________________________
Mmm, I don't remember any of that.

_________________________________

How do you do?
_________________________________

My name is Deems Taylor,
_________________________________

and it's my very pleasant duty

to welcome you here
_________________________________

on behalf of Walt Disney,

Leopold Stokowski
_________________________________

and all the other artists and musicians

whose combined talents
_________________________________

went into the creation of this
new form of entertainment, Fantasia.
_________________________________

What you are going to see
_________________________________

are the designs

and pictures and stories
_________________________________

that music inspired
in the minds and imaginations
_________________________________

of a group of artists.
_________________________________

In other words,

these are not going to be
_________________________________

the interpretations of trained musicians.
_________________________________

Which I think is all to the good.
_________________________________

Now, there are three kinds of music

on this Fantasia programme.
_________________________________

First is the kind that tells
a definite story.
_________________________________

Then there's the kind that,

while it has no specific plot,
_________________________________

does paint a series of, more or less,
definite pictures.
_________________________________

Then there's a third kind,
_________________________________

music that exists simply
for its own sake.

_________________________________

I know you

_________________________________

I walked with you once upon a dream

_________________________________

I know you

_________________________________

The gleam in your eyes

_________________________________

Is so familiar a gleam

_________________________________

Yet I know it's true

_________________________________

That visions are seldom all they seem

_________________________________

But if I know you

_________________________________

I know what you'll do

_________________________________

You'll love me at once

_________________________________

The way you did

_________________________________

Once upon a dream

_________________________________

_________________________________
Alice in Wonderland
_________________________________
How do you get to Wonderland?
_________________________________
Over the hill or underland
_________________________________
Or just behind the tree?
_________________________________
When clouds go rolling by
_________________________________
They roll away and leave the sky
_________________________________
Where is the land beyond the eye
_________________________________
That people cannot see?
_________________________________
Where can it be?
_________________________________
Where do stars go?
_________________________________
Where is the crescent moon?
_________________________________
They must be somewhere
_________________________________
In the sunny afternoon
_________________________________
Alice in Wonderland
_________________________________
Where is the path to Wonderland?
_________________________________
Over the hill or here or there
_________________________________
I wonder where
_________________________________
_________________________________

The second star to the right

_________________________________

Shines in the night for you

_________________________________

To tell you that the dreams you plan

_________________________________

Really can come true

_________________________________

The second star to the right

_________________________________

Shines with a light so rare

_________________________________

And if it's Never Land you need

_________________________________

Its light will lead you there

_________________________________

Twinkle, twinkle little star

_________________________________

So we'll know where you are

_________________________________

Gleaming in the skies above

_________________________________

Lead us to the land

_________________________________

We dream of

_________________________________

And when our journey is through

_________________________________

Each time we say

_________________________________

Good night

_________________________________

We'll thank the little star that shines

_________________________________

The second from

_________________________________

The right

_________________________________

_________________________________

Love is a song that never ends

_________________________________

Life may be swift and fleeting

_________________________________

Hope may die

Yet love's beautifuI music

_________________________________

Comes each day like the dawn

_________________________________

Love is a song that never ends

_________________________________

One simple theme repeating

_________________________________

Like the voice of a heavenly choir

_________________________________

Love's sweet music flows on

_________________________________

Like the voice of a heavenly choir

_________________________________

Love's sweet music flows on

With snappy serapes

We're brave and we'll stay so

We're bright as a peso
_________________________________

Who says so? We say so

We're three caballeros

Oh, through fair and stormy weather
_________________________________

We're always together

Like brother to brother

We're all for each other

The three caballeros

Forever we'll stay!

JIMINY: (SINGING)
When you wish upon a star
_________________________________
Makes no difference who you are
_________________________________
Anything your heart desires
_________________________________
Will come to you
_________________________________
If your heart is in your dream
_________________________________
No request is too extreme
_________________________________
When you wish upon a star
_________________________________
As dreamers do
_________________________________
CHORUS: (SINGING) Fate is kind
_________________________________
She brings to those who love
_________________________________
The sweet fulfillment of
_________________________________
Their secret longing
_________________________________
(SINGING) Like a bolt out of the blue
_________________________________
Fate steps in and sees you through
_________________________________
When you wish upon a star
_________________________________
Your dreams
_________________________________
Come true

_________________________________

Pretty, huh?
_________________________________

I'll bet a lot of you folks

don't believe that,
_________________________________

about a wish coming true, do you?
_________________________________

Well, I didn't either.
_________________________________

Of course, I'm just a cricket singing
my way from hearth to hearth,
_________________________________

but let me tell you

what made me change my mind.

_________________________________

_________________________________

NARRATOR: This could be

the room of any small boy,

_________________________________
but it just happens to belong

to a boy named Christopher Robin.
_________________________________

Like most small boys,
_________________________________
Christopher Robin

has toy animals to play with.
_________________________________

They all live together

in a wonderful world of make-believe.
_________________________________

His best friend is a bear

called Winnie the Pooh,
_________________________________

or "Pooh" for short.
_________________________________

Pooh had some unusual adventures,

right here in the Hundred Acre Wood.

_________________________________
CHORUS:
Deep in the Hundred Acre Wood
_________________________________

Where Christopher Robin plays
_________________________________

You'll find the enchanted neighborhood
_________________________________

Of Christopher's childhood days
_________________________________

A donkey named Eeyore is his friend
_________________________________

And Kanga and little Roo
_________________________________

There's Rabbit and Piglet
_________________________________

And there's Owl
_________________________________

But most of all Winnie the Pooh
_________________________________

NARRATOR: Once upon a time,
in a faraway land,
_________________________________
there was a tiny kingdom,
_________________________________
peaceful, prosperous,
and rich in romance and tradition.
_________________________________
Here, in a stately chateau,
_________________________________
there lived a widowed gentleman
_________________________________
and his little daughter, Cinderella.
_________________________________
Although he was
a kind and devoted father,
_________________________________
and gave his beloved child
every luxury and comfort,
_________________________________
still, he felt she needed
a mother's care.
_________________________________
And so, he married again,
_________________________________
choosing for his second wife
a woman of good family,
_________________________________
with two daughters
just Cinderella's age,
_________________________________
by name, Anastasia and Drizella.
_________________________________
It was upon the untimely death
of this good man, however,
_________________________________
that the stepmother's
true nature was revealed.
_________________________________
Cold, cruel, and bitterly jealous
_________________________________
of Cinderella's charm and beauty,
_________________________________
she was grimly determined
to forward the interests
_________________________________
of her own two awkward daughters.
_________________________________
Thus, as time went by,
_________________________________
the chateau fell into disrepair.
_________________________________
For the family fortunes
were squandered
_________________________________
upon the vain and selfish stepsisters,
_________________________________
while Cinderella was abused,
humiliated,
_________________________________
and finally forced
to become a servant in her own house.
_________________________________
And yet, through it all,
_________________________________
Cinderella remained
ever gentle and kind.
_________________________________
For with each dawn,
she found new hope that someday
_________________________________
her dreams of happiness
would come true.

NARRATOR: Once upon a time,

in a faraway land,

_________________________________

a young prince lived

in a shining castle.

_________________________________

Although he had everything

his heart desired,

_________________________________

the prince was spoiled,

selfish and unkind.

_________________________________

But then, one winter's night,

_________________________________

an old beggar woman came

to the castle

_________________________________

and offered him a single rose

_________________________________

in return for shelter from the bitter cold.

_________________________________

Repulsed by her haggard appearance,

_________________________________

the prince sneered at the gift

and turned the old woman away.

_________________________________

But she warned him

not to be deceived by appearances,

_________________________________

for beauty is found within.

_________________________________

And when he dismissed her again,

the old woman's ugliness melted away

_________________________________

to reveal a beautiful enchantress.

_________________________________

The prince tried to apologize,

but it was too late,

_________________________________

for she had seen

that there was no love in his heart.

_________________________________

And as punishment,

_________________________________

she transformed him

into a hideous beast

_________________________________

and placed a powerful spell

on the castle and all who lived there.

_________________________________

Ashamed of his monstrous form,

_________________________________

the Beast concealed himself

inside his castle

_________________________________

with a magic mirror as his only window

to the outside world.

_________________________________

The rose she had offered

_________________________________

was truly an enchanted rose,

_________________________________

which would bloom until his 21st year.

_________________________________

If he could learn to love another

_________________________________

and earn her love in return

by the time the last petal fell,

_________________________________

then the spell would be broken.

_________________________________

If not, he would be doomed

_________________________________

to remain a beast for all time.

_________________________________

(THUNDER)

_________________________________

As the years passed,

_________________________________

he fell into despair and lost all hope,

_________________________________

for who could ever learn

to love a beast?

_________________________________

_________________________________
NARRATOR: If you were asked
choose the most fabulous character
_________________________________
in English literature, who would it be?

_________________________________
Robin Hood?
_________________________________
King Arthur?

_________________________________
Becky Sharp? Sherlock Holmes?

_________________________________
Oliver Twist, perhaps?

_________________________________
Any one of them
would be an excellent choice.

_________________________________
Still, for the most fabulous character
of all, I would nominate a toad.
_________________________________

J. Thaddeus Toad, Esquire.

Have you never met him?

_________________________________
You'll find his story in this delightful
book, The Wind In The Willows.
_________________________________

Toad, you might say,
was the one disturbing element.

_________________________________
Incurable adventurer.
Mad, reckless, tried everything.

_________________________________
Positive mania for fads,
and he never counted the cost.

_________________________________
Had a host of fair-weather friends,
of course,
_________________________________

but there were only three
who had his best interests at heart.

_________________________________
One was a badger.
_________________________________
MacBadger.

_________________________________
Then there was a water rat. Bit stuffy,
perhaps, but really a fine fellow.
_________________________________
And a mole.

Gentle creature, kind and sympathetic.

_________________________________

_________________________________

NARRATOR: Have you ever wondered

how nature gets its glow?
_________________________________

Who gives it light and color

as the seasons come and go?
_________________________________

Who helps all creatures,

great and small,
_________________________________

to walk, to swim, to fly?
_________________________________

Who crafts such tiny details?
_________________________________

You might see them if you try.
_________________________________

For it's all the work of fairies,

but they stay well out of sight.
_________________________________

(COOING)
_________________________________

(LAUGHING)
_________________________________

And the first time that a baby laughs,

a fairy's life takes flight.
_________________________________

(SINGING)
When the moon comes out
_________________________________

To shine her face
_________________________________

The birds are fast asleep
_________________________________

And the lanterns hang from every post

The fairies leave their keep
_________________________________

They join their hands

and sing their songs
_________________________________

That nary a soul can hear
_________________________________

In the springtime

when the earth is new
_________________________________

So make a wish and hold on tight

There's magic in the air tonight

And anything can happen

NARRATOR: Long ago,

in the faraway land of ancient Greece,

_________________________________
there was a golden age of powerful

gods and extraordinary heroes.

_________________________________

And the greatest and strongest of all

these heroes was the mighty Hercules.

_________________________________

But what is the measure of a true hero?

_________________________________

-That is what our story is...

-Will you listen to him?

_________________________________

He's makin' the story sound like

some Greek tragedy.

_________________________________

-Lighten up, dude.

-We'll take it from here, darling.

_________________________________

NARRATOR: You go, girl.

_________________________________

We are the Muses, goddesses of

the arts and proclaimers of heroes.

_________________________________

Heroes like Hercules.

_________________________________

Honey, you mean "Hunk-ules."

_________________________________

Ooh, I'd like to make

some sweet music with him...

_________________________________

Our story actually begins long before

Hercules, many aeons ago.

_________________________________

Ah

_________________________________
(SINGING)
Back when the world was new

_________________________________

The planet Earth was down on its luck

_________________________________

And everywhere gigantic brutes

called Titans ran amok

_________________________________

It was a nasty place

_________________________________

There was a mess

wherever you stepped

_________________________________

Where chaos reigned and the

earthquakes and volcanoes never slept

_________________________________

Say it, girlfriend!

_________________________________

And then along came Zeus

_________________________________

-He hurled his thunderbolt

-CHORUS: He zapped

_________________________________

-Locked those suckers in a vault

-They're trapped

_________________________________

And on his own

stopped chaos in its tracks

_________________________________

And that's the gospel truth

_________________________________

The guy was too "Type A" to just relax

_________________________________

And that's the world's first dish

_________________________________

Yeah, baby.

_________________________________
Zeus tamed the globe

while still in his youth

_________________________________

Though, honey it may seem impossible

_________________________________

That's the gospel truth

_________________________________

On Mount Olympus life was neat

And smooth as sweet vermouth

_________________________________

Although, honey

it may seem impossible

_________________________________

That's the gospel truth

_________________________________

CHORUS: Ah, ah

_________________________________

-Yeah, yeah

-Ah, ah

_________________________________

Hey, hey, hey

_________________________________

Ah, ah

_________________________________

Hey, yeah

_________________________________

(CHORUS HARMONISING)

_________________________________

EUDORA: "Just at that moment,

_________________________________

"the ugly little frog looked up with

his sad, round eyes and pleaded,
_________________________________

"'Oh, please, dear princess,
_________________________________

"'only a kiss from you

can break this terrible spell
_________________________________

"'that was inflicted on me

by a wicked witch!'"
_________________________________

(MEWING)

so moved by his desperate plea
_________________________________

"that she stooped down,

picked up the slippery creature,
_________________________________

"leaned forward, raised him to her lips,
_________________________________

"and kissed that little frog!
_________________________________

(EXCLAIMS ADORINGLY)

"Then, the frog was transformed

into a handsome prince.

"They were married and lived

happily ever after. The end."

_________________________________

Say "good night," Tiana.
_________________________________

There is no way

in this whole wide world
_________________________________

I would ever, ever, ever...
_________________________________

I mean, never kiss a frog. Yuck!
_________________________________

Is that so?
_________________________________

Well, here's your

Prince Charming, Tia.
_________________________________

-Come on. Kiss him.

-No.
_________________________________

-Kiss him!

-Stop it!
_________________________________

-Kiss him, kiss him, kiss him!

-I won't, I won't, I won't!
_________________________________

I would do it. I would kiss a frog.
_________________________________

I would kiss a hundred frogs

if I could marry a prince

and be a princess.

Evening, Eudora.
_________________________________

Daddy! Daddy!

Look at my new dress. Isn't it pretty?
_________________________________

Look at you.
_________________________________

Why, I'd expect nothing less
_________________________________

from the finest seamstress

in New Orleans.
_________________________________

Ooh! I want that dress!
_________________________________

-Now, sugarplum...

-I want that one!
_________________________________

Please, please, please, please!
_________________________________

Eudora, you suppose you could whip

something up like that?
_________________________________

Anything for my best customer.

(CHARLOTTE CHEERS)
_________________________________

Come along, Tiana. Your daddy

should be home from work by now.
_________________________________

All right now, princess,

you're getting that dress, but that's it.

_________________________________

-What?

-Well, sweetheart,
_________________________________

this is the best gumbo I've ever tasted!
_________________________________

Come here.

Eudora, our little girl's got a gift.
_________________________________

Mmm-hmm. I could've told you that.
_________________________________

A gift this special just got to be shared.
_________________________________

Hey, everybody, I made gumbo!

WOMAN: Ooh, that smells good!

MAN: I got some hush puppies, Tiana.

Here I come!

JAMES: You know the thing

about good food?
_________________________________

It brings folks together

from all walks of life.
_________________________________

It warms them right up

and it puts little smiles on their faces.

And when I open up

my own restaurant,
_________________________________

I tell you, people are going

to line up for miles around

-Daddy! Look!

-Where are you going?
_________________________________

Charlotte's fairy tale book said
_________________________________

if you make a wish on the Evening Star,

it's sure to come true.
_________________________________

Well, you wish on that star, sweetheart.
_________________________________

Yes. You wish and you dream

with all your little heart.
_________________________________

But you remember, Tiana, that
_________________________________

that old star can only take you

part of the way.
_________________________________

You got to help it along with

some hard work of your own,
_________________________________

and then, yeah, you can do anything

you set your mind to.
_________________________________

Just promise your daddy one thing.
_________________________________

That you'll never, ever lose sight

of what's really important.
_________________________________

Okay?
_________________________________

See you in the morning, babycakes.
_________________________________

Get some sleep.
_________________________________

Please, please, please!

FLYNN: This is the story of how I died.

_________________________________

But don't worry, this is a fun story,

and the truth is, it isn't even mine.
_________________________________

This is the story of a girl

named Rapunzel.
_________________________________

And it starts with the sun.
_________________________________

Once upon a time, a single drop

of sunlight fell from the heavens.
_________________________________

And from this small drop of sun

grew a magic golden flower.
_________________________________

It had the ability to heal

the sick and injured.
_________________________________

Oh, you see that old woman over there?

You might want to remember her.
_________________________________

She's kind of important.
_________________________________

Centuries passed
_________________________________

and a hop, skip and a boat ride away

there grew a kingdom.
_________________________________

The kingdom was ruled

by a beloved king and queen.
_________________________________

And the queen

was about to have a baby.
_________________________________

But she got sick.
_________________________________

Really sick.
_________________________________

She was running out of time,
_________________________________

and that's when people

start to look for a miracle.
_________________________________

Or in this case, a magic golden flower.
_________________________________

Ah! I told you she'd be important.
_________________________________

Instead of sharing the sun's gift,
_________________________________

this woman, Mother Gothel,

hoarded its healing power
_________________________________

and used it to keep herself young

for hundreds of years.
_________________________________

And all she had to do

was sing a special song.
_________________________________

(SINGING) Flower, gleam and glow
_________________________________

Let your power shine

_________________________________
Make the clock reverse

_________________________________
Bring back what once was mine

_________________________________
What once was mine

_________________________________
FLYNN: You get the gist. She sings to it,

she turns young. Creepy, right?
_________________________________

(VOICES APPROACHING)
_________________________________

We found it!
_________________________________
FLYNN: The magic of the golden flower

healed the queen.
_________________________________

A healthy baby girl, a princess

was born, with beautiful golden hair.

FLYNN: I'll give you a hint,

that's Rapunzel.
_________________________________

(GIGGLES)
_________________________________

To celebrate her birth,
_________________________________

the king and queen

launched a flying lantern into the sky.
_________________________________

(PEOPLE CHEERING)
_________________________________

And for that one moment,

everything was perfect.
_________________________________

And then that moment ended.

(RAPUNZEL CRYING)
_________________________________
FLYNN: Gothel broke into the castle,

stole the child,
_________________________________

and just like that, gone!
_________________________________

The kingdom searched and searched,

but they could not find the princess.
_________________________________

For deep within the forest,

in a hidden tower,
_________________________________

Gothel raised the child as her own.
_________________________________
RAPUNZEL: (SINGING)

Save what has been lost
_________________________________

Bring back what once was mine
_________________________________

What once was mine

_________________________________
FLYNN: Gothel had found

her new magic flower,

_________________________________
but this time,

she was determined to keep it hidden.

_________________________________
Why can't I go outside?
_________________________________

The outside world is a dangerous place,
_________________________________

filled with horrible, selfish people.
_________________________________

You must stay here, where you're safe.
_________________________________

Do you understand, flower?
_________________________________

Yes, Mommy.
_________________________________
FLYNN: But the walls of that tower

could not hide everything.
_________________________________

Each year, on her birthday,
_________________________________

the king and queen released

thousands of lanterns into the sky
_________________________________

in hope that one day

their lost princess would return.

_________________________________

_________________________________

Oh, I come from a land

From a faraway place

_________________________________

Where the caravan camels roam

_________________________________

Where it's flat and immense

And the heat is intense

_________________________________

It's barbaric, but hey, it's home

_________________________________

When the wind's from the east

And the sun's from the west

_________________________________

And the sand in the glass is right

_________________________________

Come on down, stop on by

Hop a carpet and fly

_________________________________

To another Arabian night

_________________________________

Arabian nights

_________________________________

Like Arabian days

_________________________________

More often than not

Are hotter than hot

_________________________________

In a lot of good ways

_________________________________

Arabian nights

_________________________________

'Neath Arabian moons

_________________________________

A fool off his guard

Could fall and fall hard

_________________________________

Out there on the dunes

_________________________________

Ah, salaam and good evening

to you, worthy friend.

_________________________________

Please, please, come closer.

_________________________________

Too close. A little too close.

_________________________________

There.

_________________________________

Welcome to Agrabah,

_________________________________

city of mystery, of enchantment,

_________________________________

and the finest merchandise

this side of the River Jordan,

_________________________________

on sale today. Come on down.

_________________________________

Look at this. Yes.

_________________________________

Combination hookah and coffeemaker.

Also makes julienne fries.

_________________________________

Will not break. Will not...

_________________________________

It broke.

_________________________________

Ohh! Look at this.

_________________________________

I have never seen

one of these intact before.

_________________________________

This is the famous

Dead Sea Tupperware.

_________________________________

Listen. Ah, still good.

_________________________________

Wait. Don't go.

_________________________________

I can see that you're only interested

in the exceptionally rare.

_________________________________

I think, then, you would be

most rewarded to consider this.

_________________________________

Do not be fooled

by its commonplace appearance.

_________________________________

Like so many things,

it is not what is outside,

_________________________________

but what is inside that counts.

_________________________________

This is no ordinary lamp.

_________________________________

It once changed the course

of a young man's life.

_________________________________

A young man who, like this lamp,

was more than what he seemed.

_________________________________

A diamond in the rough.

_________________________________

Perhaps you would like to hear the tale?

_________________________________

It begins on a dark night,

_________________________________

where a dark man waits

_________________________________

with a dark purpose.

_________________________________

(HORSE NICKERS)

_________________________________

You are late.

_________________________________

A thousand apologies, O patient one.

_________________________________

You have it, then?

_________________________________

I had to slit a few throats, but I got it.

_________________________________

Ah-ah-ahhh.

_________________________________

The treasure.

_________________________________

Ow!

_________________________________

Trust me, my pungent friend.

_________________________________

-You'll get what's coming to you.

-What's coming to you. Awk!

_________________________________

Quickly! Follow the trail.

_________________________________

Faster.

JAFAR: At last,

after all my years of searching,

_________________________________

the Cave of Wonders.

_________________________________

Awk. Cave of Wonders.

_________________________________

By Allah.

_________________________________

Now, remember. Bring me the lamp.

_________________________________

The rest of the treasure is yours,

but the lamp is mine.

_________________________________

(CHUCKLES)

_________________________________

Awk, the lamp. Awk, the lamp.

_________________________________

Jeez, where'd you dig this bozo up?

_________________________________

Shh.

(ECHOING RUMBLE)

_________________________________

-Who disturbs my slumber?

-(THIEF GASPS)

_________________________________

It is I, Gazeem, a humble thief.

_________________________________

Know this.

_________________________________

Only one may enter here,

_________________________________

one whose worth lies far within.

_________________________________

A diamond in the rough.

_________________________________

What are you waiting for? Go on.

_________________________________

(BEAST SIGHING)

_________________________________

-(ROARING)

-(SCREAMING)

_________________________________

No!

_________________________________

Seek thee out the diamond in the rough.

_________________________________

(COUGHING)

_________________________________

I can't believe it. I just don't believe it.

_________________________________

We're never gonna get

a hold of that stupid lamp.

_________________________________

Just forget it. Look at this.

I'm so ticked off that I'm moulting.

_________________________________

Patience, Iago. Patience.

_________________________________

Gazeem was obviously

less than worthy.

_________________________________

Oh, there's a big surprise.

_________________________________

I think I'm gonna have a heart attack

and die from that surprise.

_________________________________

What are we gonna do?

We got a big problem here, a big...

_________________________________

Yes.

_________________________________

Only one may enter.

_________________________________

I must find this one, this...

Look out, lad

A mermaid be waiting for you

_________________________________

In mysterious fathoms below

_________________________________

Isn't this great?
_________________________________

The salty sea air,

_________________________________

-the wind blowing in your face. (SIGHS)

-(BARKS)

_________________________________
A perfect day to be at sea.
_________________________________

Oh, yes, delightful.
(RETCHES)

_________________________________

A fine strong wind and a following sea.

_________________________________

King Triton must be

in a friendly type mood.

_________________________________

-King Triton?

-Why, ruler of the merpeople, lad.

_________________________________

Thought every good sailor

knew about him.

_________________________________

Merpeople.

_________________________________

Eric, pay no attention

to this nautical nonsense.

_________________________________

But it ain't nonsense. It's the truth.

_________________________________

I'm tellin' ya! Down in
the depths of the ocean they live! Oh!

Aah!

through! Excuse me. One side, Ares.

_________________________________

Why, Hermes, they're lovely.

_________________________________

Yeah, you know,

I had Orpheus do the arrangement.

_________________________________

Isn't that too nutty?

_________________________________

Fabulous party. You know,

_________________________________

I haven't seen this much love in a room

since Narcissus discovered himself.

_________________________________

On behalf of my son,

I want to thank you all

for your wonderful gifts!

What about our gift, dear?

_________________________________

Well, let's see here. We'll take...

Hmm, yes.

A little cirrus

and, hmm, a touch of nimbostratus

_________________________________

and a dash of cumulus.

HADES: How sentimental.

_________________________________

You know,

I haven't been this choked up

_________________________________

since I got a hunk of moussaka

caught in my throat! Huh?

_________________________________

So is this an audience or a mosaic?

_________________________________

Hey, how you doin'?

Lookin' good. Nice dress.

_________________________________

So, Hades, you finally made it.

How are things in the underworld?

_________________________________

Well, they're just fine.

You know, a little dark, a little gloomy.

_________________________________

And, as always,

hey, full of dead people.

_________________________________

What are you gonna do?

_________________________________

There's the little sunspot.

Little snootchie.

_________________________________

And here is a sucker

for the little sucker, eh?

_________________________________

Here you go. Ya just...

_________________________________

(GRUNTING)

_________________________________

-Sheesh.

-(LAUGHING)

_________________________________

Uh, powerful little tyke.

_________________________________

Come on, Hades. Don't be such a stiff.

Join the celebration!

_________________________________

Hey.

_________________________________

Love to, babe, but unlike you gods

lounging about up here,

_________________________________

I regrettably have a full-time gig

_________________________________

that you, by the way,

so charitably bestowed on me, Zeus.

_________________________________

So, can't. Love to, but can't.

_________________________________

You ought to slow down.

You'll work yourself to death.

_________________________________

Hah! Work yourself to death!

(LAUGHING)

_________________________________

(CROWD LAUGHING)

_________________________________

Oh, I kill myself!

_________________________________

(FAKE LAUGH) If only. If only.

_________________________________

If there's one god you don't want to

get steamed up, it's Hades.

_________________________________

'Cause he had an evil plan.

_________________________________
(SINGING) He ran the underworld

_________________________________

But thought the dead

were dull and uncouth

_________________________________

He was as mean as he was ruthless

_________________________________

-And that's the gospel truth

-(GROWLING)

_________________________________

He had a plan to shake things up

_________________________________

And that's the gospel truth

_________________________________

Pain!

_________________________________

Coming, your most lugubriousness.

_________________________________

Ow! (GRUNTING)

the instant the Fates arrive.

and you didn't tell me?

-Past.

-Present.

_________________________________

And Future.

_________________________________

_________________________________

Great, great. Anyway, see, ladies,

I was at this party, and I lost track of...

_________________________________

-TOGETHER: We know!

-Yeah. I know you know.

_________________________________

So here's the deal. Zeus,

_________________________________

Mr. High and Mighty, Mr. "Hey, you,

get off of my cloud, " now he has...

_________________________________

-TOGETHER: A bouncing baby brat.

-We know!

_________________________________

I know you know. I know.

I got it. I got the concept.

_________________________________

So let me just ask.

_________________________________

Is this kid gonna mess up

my hostile takeover bid, or what?

_________________________________

What do you think?

_________________________________

No, you don't.

We're not supposed to reveal the future.

_________________________________

(SNIFFS)

_________________________________

Oh, wait. I'm sorry. Time out. Can I...

_________________________________

Can I ask you a question, by the way?

Are you...

_________________________________

Did you cut your hair or something?

You look fabulous.

_________________________________

I mean, you look like

a Fate worse than death.

_________________________________

-(GROANS) Oh, gross!

-It's blinkin'!

_________________________________

Ladies, please.

_________________________________

My fate is in your lovely hands.

_________________________________

-Oh, yeah!

-Oh, all right.

_________________________________

In 18 years precisely,

_________________________________

the planets will align ever so nicely.

_________________________________

Ay, verse. Oy.

_________________________________

The time to act will be at hand.

_________________________________

Unleash the Titans,

your monstrous band.

_________________________________

Mm-hmm. Good, good.

_________________________________

Then the once-proud Zeus

will finally fall,

_________________________________

and you, Hades, will rule all!

_________________________________

Yes! Hades rules!

_________________________________

A word of caution to this tale.

_________________________________

Excuse me?

_________________________________

Should Hercules fight, you will fail.

_________________________________

(FATES CACKLING)

_________________________________

What?

_________________________________

Okay, fine, fine. I'm cool. I'm fine.

_________________________________

(BELL DINGS)

_________________________________

Pain? Panic? Got a little riddle for ya.

_________________________________

How do you kill a god?

_________________________________

-I do not know!

-You can't. They're immortal?

_________________________________

Bingo! They're immortal.

_________________________________

So, first you got to turn

Just hang onto the kid, Panic.

_________________________________

-(GRUNTING)

-(CRYING)

_________________________________

Hurry!

_________________________________

Let's just kill the kid

and get it over with, okay?

_________________________________

Here you go, kid.

A little Grecian formula.

_________________________________

Look at that! He's changing.

Can we do it now?

_________________________________

No, he has to drink the whole potion.

Every last drop.

-Now?

(ALCMENE MUTTERING)

_________________________________

Oh. Well,

he must have been abandoned.

_________________________________

Amphitryon, for so many years

we've prayed to the gods

to bless us with a child.

You mean, if he finds out.

_________________________________

Of course he's gonna...

_________________________________

If. If is good.

_________________________________

MUSE: It was tragic.

_________________________________

Zeus led all the gods

on a frantic search.

_________________________________

But by the time they found the baby,

it was too late.

_________________________________
(SINGING) Young Herc was mortal now

_________________________________

But since he did not drink the last drop

_________________________________

He still retained his godlike strength

_________________________________

So thank his lucky stars

_________________________________

Tell it, girl.

_________________________________

But Zeus and Hera wept

_________________________________

Because their son

could never come home

_________________________________

They'd have to watch their precious

baby grow up from afar

_________________________________

Though Hades' horrid plan

_________________________________

Was hatched before

Herc cut his first tooth

_________________________________

The boy grew stronger every day

And that's the gospel truth
