Enchanted Page #6

Synopsis: The beautiful princess Giselle is banished by an evil queen from her magical, musical animated land and finds herself in the gritty reality of the streets of modern-day Manhattan. Shocked by this strange new environment that doesn't operate on a "happily ever after" basis, Giselle is now adrift in a chaotic world badly in need of enchantment. But when Giselle begins to fall in love with a charmingly flawed divorce lawyer who has come to her aid - even though she is already promised to a perfect fairy tale prince back home - she has to wonder: Can a storybook view of romance survive in the real world?

if they manage not to end.

- Forget about happiness.

- What about you and Nancy?

You know that you will

live happily ever after.

I don't know if I'll make it

through today, let alone a lifetime.

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

It's complicated.

But it doesn't have to be.

- Not if she knows.

- Knows what?

- How much you really love her.

- Of course she does.

We just don't talk about it every minute

of the day, but she knows.

- How?

- What do you mean, "how?"

# How does she know

- # You love her?

- No. Don't.

- # How does she know

- People looking.

- # She's yours?

- Don't sing. It's OK.

Let's just walk.

Can we walk? OK?

- Well, does she?

- Yeah.

# How does she know

that you love her?

- Oh.

- He knows the song too?

# How do you

show her you love her?

# How does she know

that you really

- # Really, truly love her?

- I've never heard this song.

# How does she know

that you love her?

- # How do you show her you love her?

- Really nice work.

- # How does she know that you really

- That's it. OK.

- # Truly love her?

- Let's go.

# It's not enough to take

the one you love for granted

# You must remind her

or she'll be inclined to say

# How do I know

# He loves me?

# How do I know

# He's mine?

# Well, does he leave

a little note to tell you

# You are on his mind?

# Send you yellow flowers

when the sky is gray?

# Hey, he'll find

a new way to show you

# A little bit every day

# That's how you know

# That's how you know

he's your love

- See?

- I've seen quite enough. Let's go.

- A ball?

- Yeah.

- That would be fun!

- That would not be fun.

# You got to show her

you need her

# Don't treat her

like a mind reader

# Each day do something

to lead her

# To believe you love her

# Everybody wants to live

happily ever after

# Everybody wants to know

their true love is true

# How do you

know he loves you?

# How do you know he's yours?

# Well, does he take you out dancing

just so he can hold you close?

I don't dance.

# Dedicate a song with words

meant just for you? Ooh

- And I really don't sing.

- # He'll find his own way to tell you

# With the little things he'll do

# That's how you know

# That's how you know

he's your love

# He's your love

Giselle!

# I've been dreaming...

Take these flowers to Nancy, please?

Are you crazy? They're birds.

They don't know where she lives.

# That's how you know

# He loves you

# That's how you know

# It's true

# Because he'll wear

your favorite color

# Just so he can match your eyes

# Plan a private picnic

# By the fire's glow, oh

# His heart'll be yours forever

# Something every day

will show

# That's how you know

# That's how you know

# That's how you know

# That's how you know

# That's how you know

# That's how you know

# He's your love

# That's how she knows

that you love her

# That's how you show her

you love her

- # That's how you know

- # You've got to show her you need her

# That's how you know

# He's your love #

Thank you.

Thank you.

So much. Thank you.

- Nancy?

- Thank you so much for the flowers.

Well, you're welcome.

No, I'm glad you liked them.

- She got the flowers.

- Catch you at a bad time?

Yeah. You wouldn't believe

where I am right now.

Sire! Oh dear, oh dear.

- You've fallen on your royal...

- I know.

Ah!

- I love them so much.

- Really?

Usually you send those e-mail cards

with the digital flowers.

These are exquisite. Where do you find

live doves in New York City?

- Oh, it's a long story.

- And these? Oh!

- We're going to a ball?

- You don't have to.

Are you kidding me?

It's so romantic.

- So spontaneous!

- Good.

- I can't wait.

- Good. Great.

And...

...as far as Giselle's concerned,

I'm just trying to help her.

- Nothing's...

- You know what?

If you say nothing happened,

nothing happened. I trust you.

- So tomorrow night, then.

- This is so unlike you.

... middle of Times Square with that bus

driver who was ambushed earlier today

It appears this odd little box

controls the magic mirror.

They were dressed

all freaky. Then this chipmunk...

I've always been in love with you.

Don't you have any self-respect?

I don't need self-respect.

I just need your lips against mine.

Wait, sire!

Go back! Go back! Please!

How could I love a man

who doesn't even like himself?

Get away from me, Jerry!

You disgust me!

I can't help my

feelings for you, Angela.

It's love that makes me

act this crazy.

This isn't love.

This is infatuation.

Shh, shh, shh.

Oh. Shh.

Nathaniel likes the way I leap?

I'm handsome even when I sleep?

Sad little chipmunk.

Aw, deranged from exhaustion.

Aw. Maybe you'd like to snuggle

in a nice little nook

for the night, eh?

Night-night.

Sleep tight.

I think I need some air, sire.

I don't like them sad endings.

Sire.

Do you...

...like yourself?

What's not to like?

Where'd he go?

# When the moon hits your eye

# Like a big pizza pie...

Oh, yeah. Here.

Watch this.

Watch very carefully. I'm gonna

put it in this hand like that.

Oh, do it again! Show me!

That's wonderful.

- Show me again!

- All right. Last time.

There you go. There it is.

And look.

You're a wizard!

What?

- This is a very nice place.

- Yeah.

- And we're eating dinner?

- Yeah.

- This is a date.

- Yeah.

No! No! No, no. We're just...

We're just friends.

Besides, people don't usually

bring their children on dates.

That's too bad.

Morgan's a lovely girl.

She's very kind and very sweet.

Yeah. She's great.

- What?

- Does she miss her terribly?

- Miss who?

- Her mother.

Um...

- Well, we just...

- What?

- We don't talk about it.

- Oh.

I'm very sorry.

I didn't mean to pry.

No, no. It's OK.

It's just...

I don't talk about it...

to Morgan or to anybody.

- Because it was very sad?

- Not at first.

- You were in love.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

- That was the problem.

- How could that be a problem?

Because love... The lovey-dovey

version that you talk about?

It's fantasy.

And one day,

you have to wake up and...

...you're in the real world.

- What made you wake up?

Well...

...she left.

- I'm so sorry for you both.

- It's OK.

I'm a big boy.

I can handle it.

It's her I worry about, though.

I know she's shy. I know she

doesn't have very many friends.

I just want her to be strong,

you know?

To be able to face

the world for what it is.

That's why I don't

encourage the fairy tales.

I don't want to set her up

to believe in this

"dreams come true" nonsense.

But dreams do come true.

And maybe something

wonderful will happen.

Yeah, well, I forgot

who I was talking to.

Well, I hope you don't forget.

I like talking to you.

For the nice lady.

From a secret admirer.

How come people keep

giving you free stuff?

- What is it?

- It's an apple martini, miss.

Apple mar... Ooh!

It looks yummy.

Be careful. It's poisonous.

- You're joking.

- Yeah.

They'll creep up on you.

I'd be careful.

- Well, I'll just have one sip.
