Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper Page #4

Synopsis: In her first animated musical featuring seven original songs, Barbie comes to life in this modern re-telling of a classic tale of mistaken identity and the power of friendship. Based on the story by Mark Twain, Barbie as The Princess and The Pauper features Barbie in an exciting dual role as a princess and a poor village girl - two girls who look amazingly alike. The girls' paths are fated to cross when Princess Anneliese is captured and Erika, her look-alike, must try to save her. Can Erika pretend to be the Princess and foil her captor, the evil Preminger? And what of the handsome King Dominick, who falls in love with Erika, mistaking her for Princess Anneliese? In this magical musical performance, two beautiful, adventurous girls dare to follow their dreams and discover that destiny is written in a very special place: your heart.

You're not coming out until every dress...

...is finished... Erika!

Erika?

- Locked in again!

- Erika?

That is you, isn't it?

"Made exclusively by Madame Carp".

If Wolfie can slip and in and out,

I'm sure your pretty little

Serafina can do it too.

It's up to you now, Serafina.

Take this to the Castle. When somebody

reads the label, it'll lead them here.

This is going to be a long night.

I thought I was dreaming, but I'm not.

Shh! Wolfie, we've gotta, you

know, act like we live here!

We can't give ourselves away.

Be a Princess!

Be a Princess!

Come in.

Did I hear a dog, Your Majesty?

Should I call the Royal Dogcatcher?

Ah, no, no.

Dog?

Everything is fine.

- Your breakfast, Your Highness.

- Really? In bed?

As always.

Oh yes. Of course.

Thank you.

Look at all this food!

Want some?

- Oh I-I couldn't, Your Highness!

- But there's enough to feed an army!

- Come on, take some.

- I, uh, thank you, um, m'lady.

I'll draw your bath. Would you like

bubbles, mineral salts, or lavender oil?

Everything!

You're going to just tell her that

you disguised yourself as a page?

Are you sure that's wise, King Dominick?

No, I'm not sure. But

I have to be honest.

I think she'll understand. I didn't want

to marry a stranger any more than she did.

I may never come out.

What's wrong, Wolfie?

Are you sick?

Something in your throat?

Wait a minute.

Are you trying to meow?

Oh oh, huh.

I can see it when you're feeling low

You can't hide that from me

You're no status quo calico

So why keep trying to be?

'Cause you're more than that

You're a doggish cat

I wish you could see the you I see

No.

I say, if you bark celebrate it

Make your mark

Serenade it

Noah's ark

Shoulda had a cat like you

And if what you are

Is a strange you

Doesn't mean

You should change you

Only means

You should change your point of view

Princess Anneliese?

Hey, feline

You fetch just fine

To thine ownself be true

Your bow wow's

The cat's meow

It's how I know you're you

You don't need the bows or tiara

Bid your woes sayonara

Trust your nose

'Cause it knows the way to go

When you

Chase your tail You're enchanting

Spirits sail

When you're panting

When you wail

You're a rover, Romeo

There is not

One hair of you

That I would rearrange

I love you the way you are

And that will never change

That will never

change.

That's my boy!

There, this one's finished!

Uh, sort of...

Please, Your Highness,

you don't have to do this!

I can't let you do it all by yourself.

How am I going to do this?

Everyone will know I'm a fake.

They'll throw me in the

dungeon in two seconds flat!

Oh Julian, where are you?

Why aren't you here?

Your most beautiful, Highness.

What's this stupid cat doing here?

- He belongs to me.

- Oh! He's yours, is he?

Well, a thousand apologies, My Lady.

Such a canine... feline.

What happened to the other one?

- Uh... she's around here somewhere.

- I see.

So rare... that you're apart.

The Queen has sent me to

escort you to meet the King.

Uhh...

Thank you.

I appreciate your

understanding, Your Majesty.

Likewise, King Dominick. I apologize

for my daughter's little delay...

...in the wedding plans.

But it's all sorted out now.

May I announce, Princess Anneliese.

Oh hello, Darling. Come, come.

I want to introduce you to King Dominick.

He has something he wants to tell you.

Where are my spectacles?

I'm honored.

Uhh...

The honor's mine, King Dominick.

Please, just call me Dominick.

Oh, call me Eri...

I mean Anneliese.

Princess Anneliese.

That's my name.

I hope his bark is bigger than his bite.

He likes you.

I'm sure you're wondering why

I disguised myself as a page.

I wanted to meet you

without all this-this ceremony.

To get to know the real you.

Uh, the real me...

King Dominick, would you do us

the honor of playing the piano?

- I know you love music.

- You do?

I will, if the Princess

agrees to sing with me.

Sing with you.

- Uh, no, no, I couldn't.

- Something tells me you have a wonderful voice.

Sing, darling.

Once a lass met a lad

You're a gentle one, said she

In my heart I'd be glad

If you loved me for me

You say your love is true

And I hope that it will be

I'd be sure, if I knew

That you loved me for me

Could I be the one you're seeking?

Will I be the one you choose?

Can you tell my heart is speaking?

My eyes will give you clues

What you see may be deceiving

Truth lies underneath the skin

Hope will blossum by believing

The heart that lies within

I'll be yours

Together we shall always be as one

If you love me for me

- Who can say where we'll go?

- I'll be yours

- Together we shall always

- Who can promise what will be?

- Be as one

- But I'll stay by your side

If you love me for me.

Breath-taking.

The prettiest sunset I've ever seen.

There's something about you...

Your eyes... no pretenses.

I like that. Until

tomorrow, Your Highness.

"Honest"?

"No pretenses"?

Oh, Wolfie, Julian and the

Princess are still missing.

And I think I'm falling

in love with the King.

Why, it's our missing little feline.

But with an attitude, oh yes!

I never liked cats.

Hm. The Princess's ring.

How odd.

Madame Carp's Dress Shop?

Maybe the answer to our mystery.

Thank you, Herve.

My Princess!

Preminger, you found my ring!

You good girl!

Princess...

Serafina, what's gotten into you?

Come quickly, Princess. You can tell

me everything on the way to the castle.

- But first let me...

- No, no. No time, Your Highness.

Princess?

What are we doing here?

Taking a little side trip, Princess.

You were behind this!

Very clever planting

a double to fool even me.

But not quite clever enough.

Checkmate!

I win.

Serafina!

Nice to see you again, Your Highness.

Watch your step.

I don't understand, Preminger.

Why would you do this?

To be King.

- And how would you get to be King?

- Still underestimating me?

Isn't that just like a Royal.

- He was going to marry you.

- What?!

Now, he's got a new bride in mind.

Your Mother is a very handsome woman.

Julian!

Anneliese!

How sad they'll be when they discover

you died in a tragic accident.

They'll never give up

looking for the Princess!

Oh I think they will.

When I show them this!

Oh that's funny.

- No good.

- We have to stop him.

Put a little muscle behind it!

What's that?

Move it!

Everything seems to be in

order. Thank you, Ambassador.

The Kingdoms will be officially

joined after the wedding tomorrow.

- Are you ready, Darling?

- Ready...

Well...

For my bride to be.

Whoa!

Grab her! She's an imposter!

Preminger, what are you doing?

- Get your hands off me!

- Release the Princess!

She's a fake!

A common pauper!

Are you telling me I

don't know my own daughter?

I only just discovered the

truth myself, Your Majesty.

Have you not wondered why we

haven't seen Julian lately?

He's conspiring with this-this imposter!

Together they took the Princess

and hid her in the Royal Mine so-
