[00:00.605]This is the story of the Little Mermaid.
[00:05.461]Once upon a time, a little mermaid named Ariel frolicked below the ocean, exploring the hulls of sunken ships.
[00:13.980]She beckoned to her playmate, a roly-poly fish. Come on, Flounder.
[00:19.079]I’m sure this old boat has lots of human treasure aboard.
[00:22.348]I’m not gonna go in there. It’s spooky.
[00:25.307]Don’t be such a guppy. Follow me.
[00:29.332]Swimming inside the ship’s cabin, Ariel discovered some rusty silverware.
[00:34.492]Oh my gosh! Have you ever seen anything so wonderful?
[00:42.643]Ariel swam to the water surface and found her seagull friend.
[00:46.932]“Scuttle, Do you know what this is?” She held up the fork.
[00:50.876]“Judging from my expert knowledge of humans, it’s obviously a dinglehopper. Humans use this to straighten their hair.”
[01:01.149]“Thanks, Scuttle! It’s perfect for my collection.”
[01:04.892]Ariel dove to an undersea grotto, where she kept her treasures from the human world.
[01:09.852]She hid her collection there because her father, the Sea King, forbad mer-people to have any contact with humans.
[01:17.740]That night, Ariel saw strange lights shimmering over the ocean, and swam out to investigate.
[01:25.620]On the surface, she gaped at fireworks that flared above a large sailing ship.
[01:31.596]Scuttle soared down through the flickering colors.
[01:35.198]“Some celebration, huh, sweetie? It’s the birthday of the human they called ‘Prince Eric’.”
[01:41.532]Forgetting her father’s decree, Ariel peered at the young man on deck.
[01:45.811]“I’ve never seen a human this close. He’s very handsome.”
[01:54.886]Aboard the ship, Eric’s advisor, Sir Grimsby, motioned for the crew’s attention.
[02:01.022]“It’s now my privilege to present our esteemed prince with a very expensive, very large birthday gift - a marble statue carved in his exactly likeness. Of course, I had hope this would be a wedding present.”
[02:20.537]The prince glanced away, gazing at the sea.
[02:23.952]“Don’t start, Grim. The right girl’s out there … somewhere.”
[02:29.944]Far beneath the ocean, the wicked sea witch, Ursula, used her magic to spy on Ariel.
[02:37.625]“My, my … the daughter of the great sea king, Triton, in love with the human. A prince, no less.
[02:48.653]Her daddy will love that. Serves him right, that miserable old tyrant.
[02:56.539]Banishing me from his palace, just because I was a little ambitious.
[03:04.075]Still, this headstrong, lovesick girl may be the key to my revenge on Triton.
[03:13.819]She’ll be the perfect bait - when I go fishing for her father.”
[03:23.965]On the surface, a sudden storm whipped across the ocean.
[03:28.299]The prince took charge. “Stand fast. Secure the rigging.”
[03:32.619]Without warning, a huge bolt of lightning struck the vessel.
[03:37.228]Sir Grimsby slid across the deck. “Eric, look out. The mast is falling.”
[03:42.643]Ariel watched in horror. “Eric’s been knocked into the water. I’ve got to save him.”
[03:47.964]With the storm swirling above her, Ariel desperately searched for Eric.
[03:52.187]“Where’s he? If I don’t find him soon … wait, there he is.”
[03:56.475]Diving beneath the waves, Ariel spotted the unconscious figure.
[04:00.164]“He is sinking fast. I gotta pull him out of the water before he drowns.”
[04:05.299]She took hold of Eric and, using all her strength, managed to drag him out of the surface.
[04:14.324]As the storm died down, Ariel dragged the unconscious prince to shore.
[04:19.029]“He’s still breathing. He must be alive.”
[04:22.684]A Jamaican crab scuttled across the sand. It was Sebastian. The Sea King’s music director.
[04:29.279]“Ariel, get away from that human. Your father forbids contact with them, remember?”
[04:35.390]“But Sebastian, why can’t I stay with him? Why can’t I be part of his world?”
[04:41.811]And she sang a haunting melody that voiced her longing to be with Eric forever.
[04:49.796]A moment later, Ariel was back in the water, and Sir Grimsby was kneeling beside Eric.
[04:57.048]“You really delight in these sadistic strains on my blood pressure, don’t you?”
[05:01.856]“Grim, a girl rescued me. She was singing in the most beautiful voice.”
[05:07.985]“I think you’ve swallowed a bit too much sea water. Here, Eric. Let me help you to your feet.”
[05:17.569]Back at the carol palace, Triton noticed Ariel floating about, as if in a dream.
[05:24.273]Summoning Sebastian, the Sea King smiled. "You’ve been keep something from me. I can tell Ariel’s in love.”
[05:32.913]“I tried to stop her. I told her to stay away from humans.”
[05:37.969]“Humans. Ariel is in love with a human?”
[05:43.721]Triton found Ariel in her grotto. She was staring at Eric’s statue which Flounder had retrieved after the storm.
[05:51.081]“How many times have I told you to stay away from those fish-eating barbarians. Humans are dangerous.”
[05:57.649]“But daddy, I love Eric.”
[06:00.081]“So help me, Ariel. I’m going to get through to you, no matter what it takes.”
[06:06.082]Raising his trident, the Sea King destroyed all the treasures.
[06:11.769]Then he stormed off, leaving Ariel in tears.
[06:19.706]As she wept, two eels slithered up to her.
[06:24.281]“Don’t be scared. We represent someone who can help you.”
[06:31.890]Ariel followed them to Ursula’s den.
[06:34.904]“My dear sweet child. I haven’t seen you since your father banished me from his court.
[06:43.905]To show that I’ve reformed, I’ll grant you three days as a human, to win your prince.
[06:51.001]Before sunset on the third day, you must get him to kiss you.
[06:56.025]If you do, he’s yours forever. But if you don’t, you’ll be mine.”
[07:05.257]“Ariel took a deep breath, and nodded. The sea witch smiled deviously.
[07:11.578]“Oh yes. I almost forgot. We haven’t discussed payment. I’m not asking much. All I want is your voice.
[07:22.521]Sebastian who had followed Ariel scurried out of hiding.
[07:26.377]“Don’t listen, Ariel. She’s a demon.”
[07:30.272]But Ursula had already used her powers to capture Ariel’s beautiful voice in a seashell, and transformed the little mermaid into a human.
[07:44.802]Aided by Sebastian and Flounder, Ariel used her new legs to swim awkwardly to shore.
[07:50.673]There, she found Prince Eric walking his dog.
[07:53.809]“Down, Max, down. I’m awfully sorry, miss.”
[07:57.449]Eric studied Ariel as she shied away from the animal.
[08:01.465]“Hey, wait a minute. Don’t I know you? Have we ever met?”
[08:07.729]Ariel opened her mouth to answer, forgetting that her voice was gone.
[08:12.129]The prince lowered his eyes. “You can’t speak … or sing either? Then I guess we haven’t met.”
[08:20.305]Eric gently took Ariel’s arm.
[08:22.985]“Well, the least I can do is make amends for my dog’s bad manners. C’mon. I’ll take you to the palace to get you cleaned up.”
[08:29.977]At the royal estate, Ariel was whisked upstairs by a maid.
[08:34.161]Grimsby discovered the prince staring glumly out the window.
[08:37.969]“Eric, be reasonable. Young ladies don’t go around rescuing people, then disappearing into thin air.”
[08:44.794]“I’m telling you, she was real. If only I could find her.”
[08:52.385]The following afternoon, Eric took Ariel for a rowboat ride across a lagoon. Sebastian swam below them.
[09:00.515]“Almost two days gone and that boy hasn’t puckered up once. How she gonna get that boy to kiss her?”
[09:10.436]Maybe this will help create the romantic mood.”
[09:15.740]He began conducting a sea creature chorus. C’mon and kiss the girl. The music is working. Eric’s leaning over to kiss Ariel.”
[09:29.316]As the prince bent toward her, the boat tipped and both Eric and Ariel fell into the water.
[09:36.771]From her ocean lair, Ursula saw them tumble into the lagoon.
[09:41.507]“That was too close for comfort. I can’t let Ariel get away that easily.”
[09:46.875]She began concocting a magic potion. Soon Triton’s daughter will be mine.
[09:53.387]Then I’ll make the Sea King writhe and wriggle like a worm on a hook.
[10:03.428]The next morning, Scuttle flew into Ariel’s room to congratulate her. The prince had announced his wedding.
[10:10.588]Overjoyed at the news, Ariel hurried downstairs.
[10:14.443]She hid when she saw Eric introducing Grimsby to a mysterious dark hair maiden.
[10:21.307]The prince seemed hypnotized. Vanessa saved my life. We are going to be married on board ship at sunset.
[10:28.739]Ariel drew back, confused. She was the one who had rescued Eric.
[10:33.395]Fighting tears, she fled the palace.
[10:36.227]Sebastian found Ariel sitting on the dock, watching the wedding ship leave the harbor.
[10:42.291]Suddenly, Scuttle crash-landed beside them.
[10:44.978]When I flew over the boat, I saw Vanessa’s reflection in a mirror.
[10:49.299]She is the sea witch in disguise, and she’s wearing seashell containing Ariel’s voice. We gotta stop the wedding.”
[10:56.972]Sebastian splashed into the water. “Flounder, you help Ariel swim out to that board. I’m going to get the Sea King.
[11:08.655]Dripping wet, Ariel climbed aboard the ship just before the sunset, as Eric and the maiden were about to be married.
[11:15.317]Before Vanessa could say “I do,” Scuttle and an army of his friends attacked her.
[11:21.547]In the scuffle, the maiden’s seashell necklace crashed to the deck, freeing Ariel’s voice.
[11:27.436]Suddenly, Vanessa sounded like the sea witch. “Eric, get away from her.”
[11:32.828]Ariel smiled at the price. “Oh Eric, I wanted to tell you.”
[11:37.869]Ursula grinned. “You’re too late. The sun has set.”
[11:48.269]Ariel felt her body changing back into a mermaid.
[11:52.061]As she dove into the water, the witch transformed her into a helpless sea plant.
[11:57.118]“You’re mine, angel fish. But don’t worry. You are merely the bait to catch your father. Why, here he is now.”
[12:07.014]“I’ll make a deal with you, Ursula. Just don’t harm my daughter.”
[12:11.861]“Instantly, Triton was changed into a tiny plant, and Ariel resumed her mermaid form.
[12:18.190]She stood heartbroken before Ursula, now Queen of the Ocean.
[12:27.641]Suddenly, Prince Eric appeared. He tossed a harpoon at the sea witch, hitting her in the arm.
[12:33.368]Ursula snatched up the king’s trident. “You little fool.”
[12:38.145]As the sea witch pointed the weapon at Eric. Ariel rammed into her, knocking the trident loose.
[12:43.593]“Eric, we have to get away from here.”
[12:46.344]The moment they surfaced, huge tentacles shot out of the ocean.
[12:50.809]“Eric, we’re surrounded. Look out!”
[12:53.800]Ariel gasped, as an enormous monster emerged, it was the sea witch.
[12:59.657]Using her new powers, the witch commanded the water into a deadly whirlpool.
[13:04.649]Several old sunken ships rose to the surface.
[13:08.595]The prince struggled aboard one of the boats.
[13:11.673]As Ursula loomed above Ariel, Eric plunged the sharp prow through the sea witch, destroying her.
[13:18.169]The mighty force sent Eric reeling toward shore.
[13:25.786]As the unconscious prince lay on the beach, Ariel perched on the rock and gazed at him.
[13:31.618]Triton and Sebastian watched from afar. “She really does love him, doesn’t she, Sebastian?”
[13:40.291]The Sea King waved his trident, and Ariel was once again human.
[13:44.819]The next day, she and Prince Eric married on board the wedding ship.
[13:51.435]As they kissed, the humans and mer-people sent up a happy cheer,
[13:57.050]linked at last by the marriage of two people whose love was as deep as the sea and as pure as a young girl’s voice.
