The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning quotes

Page 2 of 2
[Marina and Benjamin are locked up with the dungeon]

Let's think about what we've learned. You just can't hurt merpeople. Hurting is meaning. We don't want to be mean, do we?

[blows her nose; last words]

Maybe you're right.

That's my girl. Samba?

[up-tempo music plays, as Benjamin dances, and Marina joins in on the dance] [last words]

Ooh-wa, ooh-wa!

[Marina chase Sebastian with sea rocks]

Come on, try and get me.

Get back here! [He goes inside a tube, and Marina reaches in there and tries to grab him, but her finger is snaped by him] Ow!

[singing]

♪ Boom, chika, boom chika, boom, boom, boom!

[Marina then swim upward and then dives to crush Sebastian, but he gets out of the tube as Marina is caught and stick inside of it]

Tight fit?

You... stinks. [She falls and rolls down the hill and crashes off-screen]

I win.

[Marina Del Ray and Benjamin came in the princesses' room] [first words]

Uppy-uppy, my darlings.

[first words]

It's us. [The princesses groan]

[groans]

Governess! [Then Marina takes the pillow from under Aquata]

Aquata

Hey!

Rise and shine,

Aquata

Why so early?

Mustn't be late.

Arista

But it's still dark out.

Aquata

Uh...

Arista
[sees now]

Oh. Hi.

Wakey-wakey.

Adella

Oh, I was dreaming about a boy.

Yes. Come on, girls.

Alana

But I need my beauty sleep.

Time about it.

Alana

Easy for you. No one cares what you look...

Move it.

I think you're lovely.

Can't we meet Father later?

Unfortanily, I don't get to make those kinds of decisions. [laughs] Any decisions kingdom, really. [Sees the girls go back to sleep again and anger] GET UP! [The girls rushed up and go to the mirrors] All right, all right, all right. Move your tails. This is our special time with your father.

Special? It's the same every morning.

Ah, she's got a point.

That's what your father cares about. Predictability, presentation, punctuality.

That's all Dad cares about.

She's got a point.

Aquata

You've got your own mirror!

Two minutes.

STOP PRIMPING! [They get ready as they talk, as Attina goes to Ariel]

Attina

Come on, Ariel.

Why can't he let us do something different? Just once.

Attina

Give him a break. He's the king, remember? You try running a kingdom.

I wouldn't run it like this.

Attina

Don't upset him, Ariel.

Just because you're the oldest, Attina, doesn't mean you get to boss us around.

Attina

Yes, it does.

Benjamin, if we're late again, I'll never get a promotion.

Marina...

Attina

Come on, girls.

Not that I want a promotion. No, no, no, I love this job. Looking after you is what I live for. Really. [the girls leave and anger again] I hate this job!

The less said the better.

[Meanwhile, at the dungeon. Ray-Ray throws the ball against the wall with Flounder, as Sebastian, Cheeks and Shelbow are sad being in the dungeon, as Ink Spot panics]

I got to get out of here. I got to get out. The walls, they're closing in. There's no space! No Air! [grunting] I got it! We'll start a riot! Follow my lead. ATLANTICA! ATLANTICA! Join me, guys. ATLANTICA!

Hey, Ink Spot.

Yeah? [Ray-Ray throws the ball to Ink Spot as he squeezes the ball while breathing]

This ain't living. You know what I'm saying?

Sheldon

And the acoustics are non-good-ular. Listen. ♪ Do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do ♪

Come on, at least we're hanging out. Can I get a "hoo-yah?"

Come on, guys. This looks a lot worse than it is. I'll just get an audience with the king and I'll fix it.

Now, no offense, man, but you had ten years to fix it, and this is where we end up?

In jail. [The band gathered around to discuss the plan]

Well, I... [And the band are done discussing the plan]

The band has talked it up, see, and we want you to...

Cheeks

Slip through the bars.

Use your claws to pick the lock, man.

And open that door! [They have each other about that being a good plan]

Liquid! [the gang looked at him] Just kidding.

No! Bad Plan! If we break out of this jail, there ain't no coming back here, mon! We'll be fugitives! [The pause at that, but they agree on being fugitives]

What's a fugitive? [Ariel arrives and heads to their cell]

What about Ariel? You just gonna abandon her, leave her to deal wit all dat we tangled her up in? You tink that small, weak, helpless little girl can do anything by herself? [Ariel smashes the cell door with the rock] Ariel?

[opens the cell door]

Come on Sebastian, let's go.

I'm with her.

If we run away from Atlantica, it will break your father's heart.

She got to do what she got to do.

I'm sorry. I just can't live here.

Yeah, let's go.

[closes the cell door]

Listen, I will not be responsible for taking you away from your family.

[opens the cell door again]

I'm leaving! With or without you.

Cheeks

All right!

[closes the cell door again, but this time he is out of the cell]

NOBODY'S LEAVING! [gasps]

Except you.

Mmm-hmm.

Look, Sebastian, without music, this place just isn't home.

You know she ain't lying.

Ain't no comeback to that!

You got that right.

[Tries to think]

Ha! Oh, no, no, no. [gasps, grumbles] Never mind. [screams]

Are you OK?

Ariel, you're right! Without music, this place just isn't home. I know just where to go!

FREEDOM! [They go through the cell door ramming Sebastian against the wall]

[Meanwhile, we go to Ariel humming "I Remember" in her sleep, but then she wake up to see her sister staring at her]

What? [looks at her sisters being suspicious] What?

Attina

Uh... You were humming.

[gasps]

I was?

Arista

Out loud.

Don't worry. [swims to her mirror] It was just a dream.

Alana

I'll tell you what wasn't a dream. We woke up at midnight.

Aquata

And your bed was still empty.

Really?

Yeah. That is two hours past curfew.

Oh.

Ooh, was it a boy?

Adella

If it's a boy, I'm gonna die!

Aquata

Ugh... Drama.

Adella

I mean, I'm happy for you, Ariel. It's just that I'm two years older than you, and the only one I've come even close to kissing is Stevie.

Ew! Squid-Lips Stevie?

Adella

It was on a dare.

Whatever.

Attina

Girls, let's stick to the subject.

Well, it wasn't a boy, OK? I was just helping a friend. Out past the kelp forest.

Aquata

Ooh! Past the kelp forest. It wasn't a boy. It was a bad boy.

Arista
[gasping]

Oh, Ariel.

Aquata

Simmer down there, sister.

Attina

So you were just helping a friend?

Um... Yep.

Attina

Then, where'd you get... this?
Ariel's Sisters: [all gasp]

Attina

Can you imagine what'd happen if Dad found it?

He's never here.

Attina

Don't get cute with me. This is serious. Where were you? [Andrina looks at her, Alana, Aquata, and Arista both looked at Ariel]

I was just... listening to music in an underground club.

Attina

OK, where were you really? [Ariel gives them the look]

Sisters
[gasping]

Listening to music?

Aquata

No way.

Arista

What was it like?

Come on. Spill it.

[laughs]

Oh, it was amazing. The energy, the dancing, the music... Just makes you feel like...

Aquata

Like what?

Like when Mom was here.

Arista

Ariel, I wanna hear it, too.

You do?

Aquata

Me, too.

Adella

OK. Me, too.

Alana

Me, too! Me, too!

Not without me.

Arista

Yeah. Everybody does. Please, Ariel. Please?

Well...

Attina

Oh!

We'll go tonight.

Arista

I'm so excited!

Aquata

Music!

Alana

What should I wear?

Adella

So you think there'll be boys?

One way to find out.

Attina

This is not happening! You go again and I...

Oh, lighten up.

Come on. [all...]

Girls

Mmm?

Attina

OK. [The girls cheer as Marina and Benjamin arrives]

Come on, girls. Uppy-up.

Morning.

They're early.

Yes. [grabs Benjamin] But why?! [Leave at princesses' room]

[Sebastian facing against Marina]

I've tasted power, Sebastian. And I'm never letting go.

Bring it on! [gathers the starfish] Come to daddy.

[Marina tries to attack him, but he throws starfish at her, and her face is covered with them]

Oh, my! [chuckling]

[Marina gets angry and whacks him with her tail, Go back to Ariel and Flounder being chased by eels and comes across a dead end. Then Tentacles appear out of nowhere grabs them and pull them up and it turns out to be Ink Spot]

NOW!

Fire!

[He slingshits Cheeks into the pillars and they fall down and traps the eels inside]

Yeah! Awesome!

Ooh, they hurtin' for certain.

Cheeks

Yup, yup, yup. [chuckles]

Sebastian's in trouble!

Follow me!
[They swim to where Sebastian is facing Marina]

[They go through the keep forest, only that it's low on kelp]

I don't remember this much kelp when we came through here last night.

[One the "kelp" moved and touched Ariel]

Kelp, schmelp. I ain't afraid of these overgrown weeds. Hi-yah! Take this! And take that! [yelling in slow-motion]

[He tries to bring down the kelp 4 times, but fails. And Flounder then looks up and the kelp were really Marina's eels.]

Guys? That ain't kelp!

[They get scared of the eels and Marina pops up]

SURPRISE!!

Marina? What are you wearing?

I thought I'd dress for the occasion.

What's the occasion? [She shows a net] [screams] GO, GO, GO, GO!

Sic 'em, boys! [cackling]
[The eels chase them]

[We fade to stacks of meat and are picked up by a stick, which turns out to be Benjamin uses it to feed the locked up creatures]

Mm-hmm. Snacky-snack. [animals growling] OK. [moaning as the creatures ate the meat] No manners.

This job is killing me!

Oh, dear.

​​​​If I have to watch over these spoiled princesses one more day, I'm gonna beach myself!

Mm-hmm.

You should've heard that little clawboy Sebastian today. "You're late." [gibbering] IF TRITON WASN'T LOOKING, I WOULD HAVE SQUASHED THAT CRUSTACEAN INTO A CRAB CAKE!

Mm-hmm.

[inhaling deeply]

Maybe I'm just too sensitive?

Dip.

Did you feed them today?

Yes. Twice.

And the key? [He shows her the key around his neck, and he continues to shorten her nails] Ooh! That Sebastian! I despise him! I loathe him!

Never heard that one.

How did that little invertebrate get to be chief of staff?

Chutzpah?

I want that job. I deserve that job! So what if I'm late every once in a while and the girls are miserable?

Nobody's perfect.
