Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper Page #5

so she could take her place,

marry King Dominick

and take over the Kingdom!

And what proof do you have

of this ridiculous story?

Once I discovered this treachery,

I tried to rescue the Princess

but it was too late.

They sabatoged the Mine, collapsing it.

I'm afraid this is all my

workers found in the rubble.

No!

It cannot be!

Check her shoulder!

There's no royal birthmark.

I assure you.

It's true.

- I don't believe it.

- I can explain.

Throw her in the dungeon!

No, wait!

I- I'm not the Princess, but I

never hurt her or anybody else!

Unbelieveable!

It's an outrage!

I- I just wanted to save

the Princess! From him!

The dungeon!

My daughter...

My poor daughter...

What do they take us for?

Fools?

Trying to marry you

off to a mere pauper!?

- It doesn't make sense.

- I should say not.

The sooner we leave,

the happier I'll be.

Do a pli and never fall

Don't ever stray from protocol

All through the day There's

just one way You must behave

Do keep a grip and never crack

Stiff upper lip...

- Ah! Just who I wanted to see.

- Preminger, what is it?

So many problems.

I'm here to help.

- You can't bring my daughter back.

- Too true.

But I can provide the answer

to saving your Kingdom.

A little business venture of mine was very

successful. You could say I "struck gold".

I'm as wealthy as King Dominick.

Well your good luck has departed

and your people soon will starve

Au revoir to your foie

gras and cheese fondues.

But because I'm so good-hearted

half my fortune I will carve

I feel your pain, so how could I refuse?

But to give me some incentive,

there's just one thing I require

And it's something

that you never even use

And it's nothing that inventive

just the one thing I desire

This simple crown,

yes, how could I refuse?

Oh, don't let your spirits

falter I've a ring box in my hand

And I booked a band so

grab your dancing shoes

And come with me to the altar

see the Kingdom as you plan

Yes, marry me for how can you refuse?

How can you refuse?

Are you Wolfie?

Serafina's friend?

- I like to think so.

- She needs help.

- and so does the Princess.

- What?

Show me, quick!

Sorry, Serafina!

It's hopeless. I'm sorry, Anneliese.

Do you know why I didn't

want to marry the King?

- You weren't ready to get married.

- No, I was in love with somebody else.

My best friend. The man

who's taught me so much.

But I'm not a King. I

can't give you what he can.

I think you're like this.

A rock?

Unassuming on the outside,

and a treasure within.

We'll get out of here

somehow. I promise.

- Don't tell me she's in there.

- Alright, I will not tell you.

Ooo, I'm getting...

Ooo yeah, I'm getting...

- Uh, dizzy?

- No. A scent.

There's another way in.

Look at you...

looking at me.

Lovely.

Hey! Hey, hey, hey!

Down here!

- Whaddya make of that?

- Oh, uh, you are an excellent digger.

Thank you, but I meant look!

I'll bet I can get to Serafina

and the Princess this way.

You are going down there?

A cat always lands on his

feet, even one that barks!

Erika's cat?

An old mine shaft.

Hello? Anybody up there?

Water...

Here, help me!

Beautiful.

No, let me go!

Thought you could escape, did you?

I'll lock her up.

- I'm to take her to the castle.

- But...

The Queen's orders.

Oh, well, right then.

- Looking good, Sir Nick.

- Feeling good, Sir Nack.

Smile, my Dear.

You're about to become my Queen.

Only to save my people. Your

fortune will help them all.

This way.

Hey!

- I guess I deserved that.

- Dominick?

I need to explain...

I don't believe you're the

person Preminger says you are.

You do love disguises, don't you?

Come, we need to hurry!

Do you, Preminger, take

this woman to be your bride?

Yes. How could I refuse?

And do you, My Queen, take

this man to be your husband?

I...

I... uh I..

- I d...

- Wait! Wait!

Stop the wedding, Mother!

- Anneliese?

- But, she's dead, Your Highness!

The imposter must have escaped.

No, Preminger.

It is you!

My Darling.

It's the Princess! She's back!

It's the Princess!

She's alive!

But where were you?

- I thought...

- What he wanted you to think!

Guards! Take him!

Hai!

- He can't get away!

- He won't get away!

Nice to see you again.

Going somewhere?

Not so fast, puffy!

Now who has nowhere to go?

Yeah, nowhere to go...

but through you!

My tooth!

Oh my beautiful tooth!

Fater, you old nag!

I've seen snails faster!

What are you doing?

Turn around!

Stop, you stupid beast!

I said stop!

- I like your style, Herve.

- So do I.

Preminger played me for a fool.

I'm sorry, my Darling Anneliese.

When I think what might have happened...

But it didn't. Thanks to

Erika and the man I love...

- Julian.

- Julian?

He's kind, intelligent,

and my best friend.

Mother, it's Julian I want to marry.

I want you to be happy. But it is our

duty to take care of our people first.

I can do that. I found something

very interesting in the mine.

- I can't convince you to stay?

- Dominick, I...

All my life I've dreamed of being free.

Now my debt's been paid.

- Thanks to Anneliese.

- Where will you go?

Everywhere.

I want to sing, see the world!

Then, I hope you'll take this with you.

I couldn't.

It was meant for you.

- No promises?

- I'll take my chances.

Princess Anneliese

was right about the Mine.

She discovered it was

filled with geodes.

Under her direction, the beautiful

crystals created a new industry.

The Kingdom was saved.

As for Madame Carp, without the word

from the Castle, she went out of business.

After months of traveling, Erika

realized there was one place

she wanted to stay

more than anywhere else.

Sometimes being free

means choosing not to go,

but to stay.

And you're always free to begin again

And you're always free to believe

When you find the place

That your heart belongs

You'll never leave

You and I will always be

Celebrating life together

I know I have found a friend forever more

Love is like a melody

One that I will always treasure

Courage is the key that opens every door

Though you may not know

Where your gifts may lead

And it may not show at the start

When you live your dreams

You'll find destiny

Is written in your heart

And, of course, Wolfie and Serafina

lived happily ever after.

Along with their many,

many, many kittens.

Though you may not know

Where your gifts may lead

And it may not show at the start

When you live your dream

You'll find destiny

Is written in your heart.

Standing cat is ready.

Serafina stunt test: take one.

And... action!

Oh, Dear.

Quiet on the set please.

And... action!

Uh, I'm quite sure

this is a good idea.

Take 37.

And... action!

Ok, let's bring in Serafina.

Uh, can you get my agent

on the phone?

My, you're attractive.

You're no status quo calico

so why keep trying to be

'cos you're more than that

you're a dogish -

Ruff!

- Wolfie!

- Cut!

Ok, can I get a hair dryer

over here?

Aren't you pleasant to the eye
