Mulan: 15th Anniversary - The Voices of Mulan II Page #3

---

I'm telling you,|the sooner I bust them apart,

the better things will be for Mulan.

And so, I said, "You just broke|my best set of china."

- China. Get it?|- Did you see the way she looked at me?

You mean with disgust?

No.

Our eyes met and we shared|a cosmic moment.

Just like when I look at|potted pigs' knuckles.

It's love, I tell you. Love...

Love, shmove.

It doesn't matter.|We're on a mission.

No fraternizing with the princesses.

Engaged-to-be-married princesses.

Wow. China is so big.

Isn't it beautiful, Mei?

Mei?

Yes, beautiful.

Did you see the way|he looked at me?

Who? The gorilla with the bad eye?

Gorilla? He's more like|a big, cuddly panda bear.

- But you didn't even talk to him.|- A true romantic can tell.

He may be coarse on the outside,|but on the inside...

- He's gross?|- I mean under that.

He smells?

I can see past my nose.|Deep down.

Deep, deep down. Way down.

There's something.

Ting-Ting, I think she's in love.

No, there'll be none of that.

Remember, Mei, you are|to be married in three days.

You gave your solemn oath.

You're right.

Whoa.

We're stopping to water the horses.

- Maybe you'd like to stretch your legs?|- Are the guard fellows out there?

Yes, you're perfectly safe.

I think a leg stretch|would be very nice.

Thank you for helping me|with my slipper.

May I know your name?

Now. Dow. Cow. Bao?

No, you must eat.

It must be exhausting guarding us|day and night.

No. Well, yes.

But I'm strong and marching.

Yes, I suppose all that training|does make it second nature.

But I think you, a princess,|with royal...

- I could never.|- But it is our duty and our honor.

Although it can be a burden.

I've said too much.|You are very easy to talk to, Yao.

Permit me to echo your praise.

I find your presence engaging|and your conversation sparkling.

Thank you.

Hello, there. I am Ling.

I am Princess Ting-Ting.

Well, if you ever need me,|just give me a ting-a-ling.

Come on, Your Highness.|You don't want to let your guard down.

Get it? Guard... down?|Thank you.

You know,|I've got some blue blood myself.

Many have called me a royal pain.|Thank you.

You've been a great crowd.

Ting-Ting, look.|Isn't this fruit lovely?

Chien-Po got it for me.|He's so sweet.

Just get your pomegranates|in the carriage.

- Fa Mulan.|- Your Highness. Is anything wrong?

No, not at all.

Are you sure?

I just wanted to compliment you.

You were so brave|to take your father's place in the army.

Well, thank you.

Your duty was to stay home,

but your heart told you|to break the rules.

How did you decide|between duty and heart?

Well, it wasn't easy.

But, by following my feelings,|I wound up doing the right thing.

I guess I learned that|my duty is to my heart.

My duty is to my heart.

Yes. That makes sense.|That's marvelous.

Thank you, Fa Mulan.

You're welcome...

I guess.

Let's get back on the road.

That's my cue to put|Operation Shang into action.

Pretty boy's gonna look so bad,|it'll send Mulan running for the hills.

This is gonna be delicious.

Watch this.

Hey!

Good catch.

What? Shang?

Hey.

Tasty.

I try and I try.

I put my heart and soul|into busting them up.

And what do I have to show for it?

A cricket that laughs in my face.

I just can't do it anymore.

Oh, great ancestors,|I throw myself at your mercy.

My pedestal is all|but a distant memory.

Great spirits, take me now. Ah!

Hold on, ladies.

- We'll save you.|- Look out! A cliff.

They're headed for the cliff.|Come on.

- Time to go.|- Ting-Ting, over here.

Go.

- You're next, Su.|- No, no.

Take my arm.

Ting-Ting's stuck.

Mulan, the rope.

Hang on!

Is everyone all right?

- Mei, I'll save you.|- I saved the food.

And I saved you.

Mulan!

- What happened?|- I don't know.

- I wasn't near the carriage.|- Yao, Ling, save the supplies.

Keep paddling.|Look how great you're doing.

- Who's the big boy?|- Thank you.

My fault?

This wasn't my plan.|Wagon's busted.

Cold and miserable.|Everything's ruined.

Or maybe not.

Old Shang's steaming|like a fresh pork bun.

I bet he and Mulan are two nasty words|away from an all-out feud.

Oh, Cri-Kee,|things are brightening up after all.

- I've seen happier princesses.|- That's the least of our problems.

There's a mountain pass|between here and Qui Gong.

It takes us through bandit country,|but it's the only way.

Why not just follow the river?

Because the river's|not on the map.

It's bound to go past a town and|where there's a town, there's a road.

There's no town on the map.

Then maybe we should just|forget the map and wing it.

We can't wing it. We need a new plan.|We have three days.

- What if we get lost?|- Then we pull over and ask directions.

We don't need to pull over|and ask directions. We have a map.

What is with men|and asking directions?

- What is it with women and maps?|- You're saying women can't read maps?

Women will ask|but they won't follow directions.

...because they refuse to ask.

Am I interrupting?

- What is it?|- Scout report.

I found a village and a path to it|through the forest.

A forest path?

Great. Show us.

See. If it were a snake,|it would've bit you.

There's bound to be a road|that will lead us to Qui Gong.

- Good work.|- Thank you, sir.

Shang, I'm sorry.|You're in charge of the mission.

No, I'm the one who's sorry.|A good leader is open to new ideas.

- Forgive me.|- There's nothing to forgive.

I'd better go.|I've got the first watch, General.

But...

Are you bugging? Look at her go.|She can't wait to get away from him.

That's no smile.|That's a mask of pain.

That was just phase one|of my new 1 8-phase master plan.

Now, just watch phase two|when I get up close...

...and personal.

Excuse me, Your Highness.|I found your fan.

It just needed a little drying out.

Thank you, Ling.

Normally, I would say,|"I'm your biggest fan."

But...

I'll just go away now, again.

Sorry.

I'll replace that.

Of course she doesn't like you.|You're such a ding-a-ling.

He likes you.

It would seem so.

And you like him.

Well, I appreciate|that he's a good soldier.

How can you do that?

How can you look at someone,|realise you share a connection,

- and then just...|- I know where my duty lies.

Do you?

And so, my dear father,

I cannot complete this mission.

I have come to realise that my duty

- is to my heart.|- What are you doing?

- She's running away.|- What are you thinking?

I can't complete this mission.|I know that now.

Why?|Because Yao has given you his heart?

No. It's not about his heart.|It's about mine.

We've discussed this.

A princess must make every sacrifice|for her country.

It's our duty.

The life of a princess

From her birth is well-defined

She must humbly serve her country

Play the part she's been assigned

She guards the hopes of her people

Weak and mighty|Rich and poor

Who could ever ask for more

Who could ever ask for more

Who could ever ask for more

I want to be like other girls

Climb up a tree like other girls can

Just to be free like other girls
