You may proceed.

Good work.

From now on,

you are no longer princess.

You are now Rosie Gonzalez,

an average American girl.

What happens now?

-Stage four. Relocation.

-Where?

Somewhere where

General Kane will never think

of looking

for the Princess of Costa Luna.

Welcome to Louisiana, Rosie.

Over here.

Welcome to your new home.

For a while, at least.

Here, let me get the door.

Here you go, sweetie.

Thanks, Helen.

Hey, looks like

someone's back home again.

See you tomorrow!

Dad?

Dad?

-Hello.

-Hey.

-Who are you?

-Rosa... Rosie.

Are you sure?

'Cause you don't seem sure.

Rosie. I'm sure.

Okay. So, what are you doing here?

-Oh, Major Mason gave me this room.

-He did, huh?

-Yes, he's been very lovely.

-Lovely?

Of course, the suite is much smaller

than I'm used to,

but it will feel much larger

once I have that extra bed removed.

It's not extra, it's mine.

Will you excuse me for a second?

Yes. You are excused.

Hey, pal!

Don't "pal" me.

You... You met Rosie?

Yeah. Who is she

and why is she in my room?

Well, I had to bring her here.

The director didn't give me a choice.

Okay. Just, you know, a normal dad

would go to a foreign country

on a secret mission

and bring his daughter back

a T-shirt, not a person.

You should have warned me.

Carter, I didn't have a choice.

She doesn't trust anybody but me.

Yeah, I know the feeling.

Hey, what I do is complicated.

But if I thought for one second

it would hurt our family...

Dad, I get it.

-So, you're in?

-Do I have a choice?

Good, 'cause I'm gonna

need your help.

She needs to stay here

for a while, undetected.

And in order for that to happen,

she has to blend in

as a normal American teenager.

Yeah, no, that's not gonna

happen, Dad. She's a princess.

-Fine. Who do I say she is?

-Your cousin.

Carter, thank you.

Now, if we do our job right,

she'll be out of here

and back to her own country in no time.

-Okay, so by Tuesday?

-lt'll be soon. I promise.

-Still you and me, pal?

-No.

-Come on. Come on. Come on.

-No. No. No.

-ls that right? You're gonna go...

-No!

-...in the water if you don't say yes.

-Put me down.

-Put me down.

-All right.

-You give me a headache.

-Be nice.

Mmm-hmm.

You have made

other sleeping arrangements?

Look, the room is not yours. It's ours.

We share it.

-Share?

-Share.

I know that's probably

a foreign concept for a princess,

but what it means is that you get

one side of the room

and I get the other.

So stay on your side.

I don't want that.

That's good.

So I thought princesses

had designer clothes and stuff.

Well, she had to leave all that behind.

But I was thinking you could, you know,

loan her some of your stuff.

Yeah, sure. Why not?

Thank you. Now, go try again.

-I will after this hand.

-No, now.

And don't look at my cards.

All right, the kitchen's closing.

Last chance to eat something.

No, thank you. I wish to sleep.

Okay.

You may help me prepare for bed.

-I "may"?

-Yes.

I need a nightgown.

Preferably silk, preferably pink.

Pink silk. Let me see what I've got.

Here.

Huh?

May I use your restroom?

Yeah, upstairs, first door on the right.

Okay, whatever.

What happened?

Come on!

Do they not have lizards

where you're from?

Maybe, but I never see them.

That is why we have Henry.

You have a royal reptile wrangler?

Yes. And you should get one, too.

Good night.

She's gonna be okay.

No. She's gonna be a royal pain.

-Good morning.

-Hey.

Hey.

-Juice?

-Yeah.

All right. There you go. Coffee done?

Good.

Don't be shy, Rosie.

Grab whatever looks good.

-Bus is here.

-Sure you don't want a ride?

Yeah, I'll be fine. You coming?

-Where are we going?

-School. You're 1 6. You go to school.

School. Of course.

Goodbye.

-Morning, honey.

-Hey, Helen.

-Whoa! Who's this, now?

-That's just my cousin.

-You don't say.

-Hello.

Well, aren't you a cutie?

I am Rosie.

And I am late. Go ahead

and grab a seat, quick as you can.

Call attempted.

Scrambling signal now.

PPP link established.

This is the director.

What is your situation report?

Princess 379 is in position.

Stage four is complete.

-She's safe, then?

-That's affirmative, absolutely safe.

The girl can't help it

The girl can't help it

The girl can't help it

Could this be the queen?

Obviously not, Ed.

Maybe this is the queen.

Well, technically, no. Not yet, anyway.

Nice. Honest. I like it.

I'm Ed, by the way. And you're...

-Rosie.

-Rosie.

I'm making a documentary.

Listen, "The rocky path

from humble peasant

"to homecoming queen."

The queen of homecoming?

What is this homecoming?

You don't...

You've never heard of homecoming?

No. We have no such thing

where I am from.

Really? Where's that?

Oh, um... That's from lowa. She's...

What are you doing?

-I'm going to school.

-Bye, guys.

Yes, and you're supposed to act

like a normal American girl.

You're supposed to blend in.

-I'm trying.

-Well, try harder.

There she is, Princess Carter.

-Sit down.

-Bossy, bossy.

Sit.

I like bossy.

Excuse me, may I have this seat?

I'm sorry, I think it's school property.

Yeah, sure.

Thank you very much.

What? She's hot.

This must be our new student,

Carter Mason's cousin.

Where are you, my little princesa?

Ah!

Sophia. Thank you for joining me.

Any news from Rosalinda?

No. And there will never be.

Now, now, now, now.

We must not be so negative.

Perhaps... Perhaps we should think

happy thoughts. Shall I begin?

I am picturing

a dashing young general.

And he is... He's sitting on a throne.

Royal subjects shower him

with adoration.

And what do you know?

They have crowned him their king!

You will never be the king

of Costa Luna, not as long as I'm alive.

You are ruining my happy thoughts.

Take her away.

What you see is what you get

When you're looking at me

I'm gonna tell it like it is

Most definitely

I can tell by the way

you look me in the eyes

That you're not like the other guys

Hey, no cutting!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey!

Back of the line.

-Pardon?

-That's the rules. No cuts.

Of course. Then I will not cuts.

Hey, Rosie, come on up with me.

Well? You gotta pick something.

Oh!

Mystery meat.

Then I will have one of those.

What is it?

A hamburger?

Next.

Am I missing

something here?

Got to say the signs are clear as mud

True confession.

Are you gonna eat that nasty food?

When I laugh I taste the tears

Sometimes I wish I'd just disappear

I'm so confused, misunderstood

I can't be free

Is it just me who feels this way?

Trying to be where I am

So out of place

Can't I just wait to see what's right?

'Cause it looks like

we're all just flying blind

Check her out.

Who does she think she is?

I know. She thinks

she's Carter's cousin.

Ow!

Oh, was that your leg? I'm sorry.

She may be a loser like her cousin,

but she's dangerous.

-Really? Why?

-Are you serious? Look at her.

I know. Totally love the hair.

Ow!

What are you doing?

Eating a hamburger.
