Ash's Adventures of The Little Mermaid/Transcript

This is the transcript to Ash's Adventures of The Little Mermaid.

Opening
[''The ocean. Birds are flying and porpoises are swimming happily. From the fog a ship appears crashing through the waves'']

Sailors: (Singing) 🎵 I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue 🎵 And it's hey to the starboard, heave ho 🎵 Look out, lad, a mermaid be waitin' for you 🎵 In mysterious fathoms below. 🎵

Prince Eric: Isn't this great? The salty sea air, the wind blowing in your face. . . a perfect day to be at sea!

Grimsby: [Leaning over the side.] Oh yes… delightful…

Sailor 1: A fine strong wind and a following sea. King Triton must be in a friendly-type mood.

Prince Eric: King Triton?

Sailor 2: Why, ruler of the merpeople, lad. Thought every good sailor knew about him.

Grimsby: Merpeople! Eric, pay no attention to this nautical nonsense.

Sailor 2: But it ain't nonsense, it's the truth! I'm tellin' you, down in the depths o' the ocean they live. [He gestures wildly, Fish in his hand flops away and lands back in the ocean, relieved.]

Sailors: (singing) In mysterious fathoms below.
 * Heave. ho. Heave, ho.

''[Fish sighs and swims away.] Titles. Various fish swimming. Merpeople converge on a great undersea palace, filling concert hall inside. Fanfare ensues.''

Seahorse Ahem… His royal highness, King Triton! [Triton enters dramatically to wild cheering.] And presenting the distinguished court composer, Horatio Thelonious Ignatius Crustaceous Sebastian! [Sebastian enters to mild applause.]

Triton: I'm really looking forward to this performance, Sebastian.

Sebastian: Oh, Your Majesty, this will be the finest concert I have ever conducted. Your daughters - they will be spectacular!

Triton Yes, and especially my little Ariel.

Sebastian Yes, yes, she has the most beautiful voice. . . . [sotto] If only she'd show up for rehearsals once in a while. . . . [He proceeds to podium and begins to direct orchestra.]

Triton's daughters Great father who loves us and named us well: Aquata, Andrina, Arista, Attina, Adella, Alana. And then there is the youngest in her musical debut, Our seventh little sister, we're presenting her to you, To sing a song Sebastian wrote, her voice is like a bell, She's our sister, Ar-i. ..
 * (singing)
 * Ah, we are the daughters of Triton.

(Shell opens to reveal that Ariel is absent.)

Triton: [Very angry.] Ariel!!

Reuniting with Ariel
Cut to Ariel looking at sunken ship.
 * Flounder: [From distance.] Ariel, wait for me . ..
 * Ariel: Flounder, hurry up!
 * Flounder: [Catching up.] You know I can't swim that fast.

Ash Ketchum: Hey Ariel!

Ariel: Ash!

Misty: Oh Ariel! It's good to see you again!

Brock: Us too.

Pikachu: Pikachu.

Korra: So, what are we looking at, Ariel?

He tries to fit through porthole.
 * Ariel: There it is. Isn't it fantastic?
 * Flounder: Yeah . . . sure . . . it - it's great. Now let's get outta here.
 * Ariel: You're not getting cold fins now, are you?
 * Flounder: Who, me? No way. It's just, it, err . . . it looks - damp in there. Yeah. And I think I may be coming down with something. Yeah, I got this cough. [Flounder coughs unconvincingly]
 * Ariel: All right. I'm going inside. You can just stay here and - watch for sharks. [She goes inside.]
 * Flounder: O.K. Yeah - you go. I'll stay and - what? Sharks! Ariel!
 * Flounder: Ariel . . . I can't . . . I mean- Ariel help!
 * Ariel: [Laughs.] Oh, Flounder.
 * Flounder: [Whispering.] Ariel, do you really think there might be sharks around here? [Shark passes outside.]
 * Ariel: Flounder, don't be such a guppy.
 * Flounder: I'm not a guppy. [Gets pulled through porthole.] This is great - I mean, I really love this. Excitement, adventure, danger lurking around every corn- YAAAAHHHHHHHH!! Ariel!! [He sees a skull, crashes into pillar causing cave in, and swims frantically away, knocking over Ariel.]
 * Ariel: Oh, are you okay?
 * Flounder: Yeah sure, no problem, I'm okay . ..
 * Ariel
 * Shhh . . . [Seeing a fork.] Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Have you ever seen anything so wonderful in your entire life?
 * Shhh . . . [Seeing a fork.] Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Have you ever seen anything so wonderful in your entire life?


 * Flounder
 * Wow, cool! But, err, what is it?
 * Wow, cool! But, err, what is it?


 * Ariel
 * I don't know. But I bet Scuttle will.
 * I don't know. But I bet Scuttle will.

''Puts fork in bag. Skark swims by outside.''
 * Flounder
 * What was that? Did you hear something?
 * What was that? Did you hear something?


 * Ariel
 * [Distracted by pipe.] Hmm, I wonder what this one is?
 * [Distracted by pipe.] Hmm, I wonder what this one is?


 * Flounder
 * Ariel ..
 * Ariel ..


 * Ariel
 * Flounder, will you relax. Nothing is going to happen.
 * Flounder, will you relax. Nothing is going to happen.


 * Flounder
 * [Seeing Shark looming behind him.] Shark!! Shark!! We're gonna die! [Shark chases them all around. Ariel's bag is hung up. She goes back for it. Shark almost gets them. They head for porthole.] Oh No!!
 * [Seeing Shark looming behind him.] Shark!! Shark!! We're gonna die! [Shark chases them all around. Ariel's bag is hung up. She goes back for it. Shark almost gets them. They head for porthole.] Oh No!!

''They crash through and go round and round. Flounder gets knocked silly but Ariel saves him and traps Shark''
 * Flounder
 * You big bully. THAT . ..
 * You big bully. THAT . ..

Shark snaps at him and he swims away.
 * Ariel
 * [Laughing.] Flounder, you really are a guppy.
 * [Laughing.] Flounder, you really are a guppy.


 * Flounder
 * I am not.
 * I am not.

''On surface. Scuttle on his island humming and looking through his telescope.''
 * Ariel
 * Scuttle!
 * Scuttle!


 * Scuttle
 * [Looking through the telescope the wrong way, shouting.] Whoa! Mermaid off the port bow! Ariel, how you doin' kid? [Lowers telescope to reveal Ariel at wing's length.] Whoa, what a swim!
 * [Looking through the telescope the wrong way, shouting.] Whoa! Mermaid off the port bow! Ariel, how you doin' kid? [Lowers telescope to reveal Ariel at wing's length.] Whoa, what a swim!


 * Ariel
 * Scuttle - look what we found.
 * Scuttle - look what we found.


 * Flounder
 * Yeah - we were in this sunken ship - it was really creepy.
 * Yeah - we were in this sunken ship - it was really creepy.


 * Scuttle
 * Human stuff, huh? Hey, lemme see. [Picks up fork.] Look at this. Wow - this is special - this is very, very unusual.
 * Human stuff, huh? Hey, lemme see. [Picks up fork.] Look at this. Wow - this is special - this is very, very unusual.


 * Ariel
 * What? What is it?
 * What? What is it?


 * Scuttle
 * It's a dinglehopper! Humans use these little babies . . . to straighten their hair out. See - just a little twirl here and a yank there and - voiolay! You got an aesthetically pleasing configuration of hair that humans go nuts over!

 * Ariel

 * A dinglehopper!


 * Flounder
 * What about that one?
 * What about that one?


 * Scuttle
 * [Holding pipe] Ah - this I haven't seen in years. This is wonderful! A banded, bulbous - snarfblat.
 * [Holding pipe] Ah - this I haven't seen in years. This is wonderful! A banded, bulbous - snarfblat.


 * Ariel and Flounder
 * Oohhh.
 * Oohhh.


 * Scuttle
 * Now, the snarfblat dates back to prehistorical times, when humans used to sit around, and stare at each other all day. Got very boring. So, they invented the snarfblat to make fine music. Allow me.

Scuttle blows into the pipe; seaweed pops out the other end. Cut to Flotsam and Jetsam, then Ursula in background watching magic projection of Ariel swimming.
 * Ariel: Music? Oh, the concert! Oh my gosh, my father's gonna kill me!
 * Flounder:The concert was today?
 * Scuttle: [Still contemplating pipe.] Maybe you could make a little planter out of it or somethin'.
 * Ariel: Uh, I'm sorry, I gotta go. Thank you Scuttle. [Waves.]
 * Scuttle: Anytime sweetie, anytime.
 * Ursula: Yes hurry home, princess. We wouldn't want to miss old daddy's celebration, now, would we? Huh! Celebration indeed. Bah! In MY day, we had fantastical feasts when I lived in the palace. And now, look at me wasted away to practically nothing - banished and exiled and practically starving, while he and his flimsy fish-folk celebrate. Well, I'll give 'em something to celebrate soon enough. Flotsam! Jetsam! I want you to keep an extra close watch on this pretty little daughter of his. She may be the key to Triton's un doing. . ..

"Part of Your World"/Eric's Party/Ariel save Eric
King Triton: I just don't know what we're going to do with you, young lady.

Ariel: Daddy, I'm sorry. I just forgot. I...

King Triton: As a result of your careless behavior...

Sebastian: (appears on top of the sea king's crown) Careless and reckless behavior.

King Triton: The entire celebration was...

Sebastian: Well, it was ruined! That's all, completely destroyed! This concert was to be the pinnacle of my distinguished career. Now thanks to you, I am the laughing stock in the entire kingdom!

Flounder: But it wasn't her fault!

King Triton: Not another word! And I'm never wanted to hear you going up to the surface again! Is that clear?!

(Ariel leaves the thorn room, crying)

Sebastian: Teenagers. They think they know everything. If she were my daughter,

King Triton: You think I was too hard on her?

Kimberly: I hope Ariel gets him to shore safely.

Trini Kwan: And I hope he's not injured.

Ash Ketchum: Come on, guys! While Ariel's taking care of him, let's go put out that fire!

Misty: Yeah!

Tommy Oliver: Good idea!

Ash Ketchum: Totodile, use Water Gun to put out the fire!

Misty: Staryu, Starmie, help us out now!

-

Brock: Geodude, throw as much sand as you can on the flames!

Ash Ketchum:

Korra: You heard Ash, everybody! (climbs onboard and uses her water-bending abilities to douse the fire)

Mako: Come on, Bolin! Let's absorb as much fire as we can!

-

Zhane: Here are some buckets! Anyone who doesn't have Water Pokémon or water or fire bending abilities, pass a bucket full of water down!

-

(morning that the shore we see Ariel looking at Eric with worry)

Ariel: Is he dead?

Scuttle: (Looking at his eye) It's hard to say. I can't make out a heart beat.

Ariel: No look he's breathing. He's so beautiful.

Ursula: Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I can't stand it. It's too easy! The child is in love with a human! And not just any human. A prince! (chuckles) Her daddy'll love that. King Triton's headstrong lovesick girl would make a charming addition to my little garden. (laughs evilly)

Sebastian: Ariel? (the fish swim away) Aww... Somebody's got to nail that girl's fins to the floor.

Misty: (off-screen) Ash, we all knew the time was coming.

Sebastian: Hmm?

Misty: We have to face the facts. We must tell Ariel and her family the truth about us.

Ash Ketchum: Oh, Misty. They'll be so disappointed. And you know how angry King Triton will get if we reveal ourselves to him.

Brock: Well, we can't keep lying to them forever.

Ash Ketchum: But her father hates humans. If we tell him that we're humans beings in mermaid swimwear, who knows what he'll do to us.

Sebastian: (gasps; quietly) Ash and his friends are humans?!

Ash Ketchum: And he'll probably be questioning on how we were able to breathe underwater.

Misty: Well, why don't you just go and explain it to the king?

Ash Ketchum: You can't explain anything to King Triton, because you never get to say anything.

Destruction of the Grotto/Going to see Ursula
Ariel: Flounder, why can't you just tell me what this is all about?

Flounder: You'll see. It's a surprise.

(She see

Ariel: Oh, Flounder. Flounder, you're the best!

Jack Skellington: Wow, look at that!

Misty: What a glorious statue!

Zhane: But where it come from?

Tommy Oliver: And how did it get here?

Ariel: It was on that ship we saw that one night of the storm. It looks just like him! It even has his eyes!

Brock: Come to think of it, the statue does remind me of the prince.

Korra: Yeah. He's quite a handsome guy.

Ariel: (giggles) Why, Eric...Run away with you? (giggles) This is all so...so sudden. (spins around giggling with joy)

Mako: Wait until Ash gets a load of that.

Bolin: Yeah, he's gonna be so happy when he sees this newest addition to her collection.

Ash Ketchum: Hey, easy there! Ow! Ow! Ow! Your Majesty, watch it! Ow! I need that ear! Ow, ow, ow, ow!

(Everyone turns and see King Triton angrily dragging Ash by the ear into her grotto. They were surprised by his sudden appearance. Ariel notices her father holding Ash.)

Ariel: (gasps) Daddy!

(Sebastian nervously looked and saw Ariel and her friends completely nervous of seeing Triton in the grotto. Flounder hid himself as Triton spoke to his daughter. King Triton throws Ash into the center of the grotto)

Ash Ketchum: Ow! (rubs his ear)

King Triton: I consider myself a reasonable merman. (enters the grotto) I set certain rules and I expect those rules to be obeyed.

Ariel: But Daddy, I...

King Triton: Is it true you rescued a human from drowning?

Ariel: Daddy, I had to...

King Triton: (looks at Ash's friends in anger) And you! I've heard that you people along with Ash are humans in mermaid swimwear. It's something that Ash never told me all this time of knowing him! Is that true?

Mako: What?! How did you know that?

King Triton: I said is it true?!

(Terrified of the king, but knowing that it was inevitable for the secret to be revealed, Ash swam up to the angry sea king)

Ash Ketchum: Your majesty, it is true. (Ariel gasps in shock) We are humans in mermaid swimwear. In fact, there's more about us than what you think. You don't understand that...

Ariel: Ash, you're a human this whole time? And you didn't even tell me?

Ash Ketchum: Ariel, please understand! I was just trying to...

Ariel: Ash, you know how fascinated I am with humans! Why would you keep something like that from me?!

Ash Ketchum: Ariel, listen to me. If there's one thing in my life I could make up for, I...

King Triton: ENOUGH!! Young man, I have never in all my years thought I'd see the day when someone like you would put himself for the entire kingdom of Atlantica! You hid something that should've made me see that you and your friends as a threat! Then again, how could I have not questioned you about your ability to survive underwater for days on end? How would you even survive the world out there with those humans lurking about? It should've been obvious upon first meet that you were hiding a crucial and dangerous secret.

Ariel: But Daddy, he's only...

King Triton: Contact between the human world and the merworld is strictly forbidden! Ariel, you know that! Everyone knows that!

Ariel: He would've died!

King Triton: One less human to worry about!

Korra: You don't even know him, your highness!

King Triton: Know him? I don't have to know him! They're all the same just like the rest of you! Spineless, savage, harpooning fish-eaters! Incapable of any feeling… (those words deeply hurt Ash and the group really hard)

Ariel: DADDY, I LOVE HIM! (gasps as she hides behind the statue)

(Sebastian, Ash, and the group gasp in shock)

King Triton: No! Have you lost your senses completely? He's a human, you're a mermaid!

Ariel: I don't care!

King Triton: So help me, Ariel, I am going to get through to you! And if this is the only way, SO BE IT!

(He begins to destroy everything)

Ariel: Daddy!

Ash Ketchum: No! Please! Stop!!

Sebastian: Ariel, I...

Ariel: (softly) Just go away.

(Sebastian, remorseful for leading King Triton into the grotto, which resulted in the destruction of Ariel's treasures, leaves somberly with Flounder.)

Tommy Oliver: We should go.

Jack Skellington: Let's leave her alone for a while.

(The heroes leave the grotto with sad faces. Ash, who feels just as sorry and remorseful for Ariel as Sebastian, turned and looked at his friend in sadness. But knowing that she wanted to be alone, and not wanting to make her feel any more saddened, he turned and left the grotto with the others. Ariel was now on her own, sobbing over losing her treasures, all that she collected for years, and the Eric statue, the newest and most fascinating treasure of them all. She was now left with nothing. Just then, Ursula's eels, Flotsam and Jetsam, was watching from above. Seeing that Ariel is alone, they slither in the grotto.)

Flotsam: Poor child.

Jetsam: Poor, sweet child.

Flotsam: She has a very serious problem.

Jetsam: If only there was something we could do.

Flotsam: But there is something.

Ariel: (slowly tries to calm down after the chaotic incident, she looks nervously at the eels) Who-who are you?

Jetsam: Don't be scared.

Flotsam: We represent someone who can help you.

Jetsam: Someone who can make all your dreams come true.

Flotsam & Jetsam: Just imagine.

Jetsam: You and your prince.

Flotsam & Jetsam: Together forever.

Ariel: I don't understand.

Jetsam: Ursula has great powers.

Ariel: The sea witch? Why that's...I couldn’t possibly... No! Get out of here! Leave me alone!

Flotsam: Suit yourself.

Jetsam: That was only a suggestion. (flicks the piece of the statue to Ariel)

(Ariel looks down at the piece and sees Eric's face on it. She picks it up and looks at it. It reminded her of how the statue and the rest of her treasures were destroyed by her father's rage. Seeing that there was now no way of being with Eric now that her father learned about him and seeing what he did to her collection in the grotto, and remembering the shocking secret about Ash and friends, Ariel made up her mind.)

Ariel: Wait!

Flotsam & Jetsam: Yes?

(Meanwhile, outside the grotto, Ash, Flounder, Sebastian, and the rest of the group are trying to recover from Triton's violent outburst.)

Flounder: (sniffs) Poor Ariel.

Jack Skellington: Sebastian, how could you let this happen? You've promised Ariel that you wouldn't tell her father.

Sebastian: I didn't mean to tell. It was an accident.

Misty: Well, from the looks of what happened back there, you've certainly made things worse for Ariel and the rest of us.

Ash Ketchum: Guys, don't be mad at Sebastian. He honestly didn't want the king to know anything about this. You should've seen how scared and nervous he was. It was too much for him to bear. In fact, I'm the one who's to be blamed for this. I should never have pushed you into hiding our appearances from Ariel and her family.

Tommy Oliver: Ash, don't be so hard on yourself.

Trini Kwan: Yeah, it wasn't your fault. It's that barbarian of a sea king who's to blame. I mean what kind of parent would go violent and destroy harmless things that are from the human world, especially if they belonged to Ariel?

Korra: But he hates humans, remember?

Trini Kwan: I know, but still, he needs to be taught a lesson in manners.

Tommy Oliver: Everyone, please, don't argue. This will only get worse.

Sebastian: Ash, I'm terribly sorry for the way the king treated you and your friends. And I'm really sorry that I blew your cover.

Ash Ketchum: That's okay, Sebastian. It was too good to last anyway. (sighs) If only her father hadn't been so temperamental. That way, things would be different.

Kronk: Don't worry, Ash. I'm sure Ariel will be back on her fins sooner or...

(Then suddenly they saw Ariel with Flotsam and Jetsam)

Kronk: Oh, would you look at that. She's feeling better already. See? Told you things would come together.

Ash Ketchum: Hmmm.... I don't know about that, Kronk. (goes up to Ariel) Ariel, where you going?

Sebastian: Ariel, what are you doing here with this riff-raff?

Ariel: I'm going to see Ursula.

Sebastian: (gasps)

Ash Ketchum: What?! URSULA?!?!

Sebastian: (grabs Ariel's fin) Ariel, no! No, she's a demon! She's a monster!

Ariel: Why don't you go tell my father? You're good at that. (flicks Sebastian away)

Ash Ketchum: But Ariel, that was an accident for what Sebastian did! You don't have to go see Ursula! You know how dangerous she is!

Ariel: Ash, do me a favor and stay out of my way. Maybe I was wrong about her...like how I was wrong about you. (leaves before slapping Ash's face with her fin)

Ash Ketchum: (quietly) Ariel!

Korra: Well, that was rude.

Mako: I wonder what that was all about.

Borin: And who is this Ursula person?

Misty:

-

Sebastian:

(Upon arriving Ursula's lair)

Misty: Looks like it's always dark around this place.

Brock: This must be the lair where Ursula hangs out.

Ash Ketchum: I like what she does with the place. Guess she's been redecorating a lot with it.

Misty: Okay, Ash. You'd better go in and see what Ursula is up too with Ariel.

Ash Ketchum: Huh?

Brock: We'll let you handle this alone.

Ash Ketchum: Wait, you're letting me go in there? But you promised you'd protect me.

Misty: I don't remember promising that. (she and Brock are a couple of blocks away)

Brock: You know how to deal with fear, Ash!

Ash Ketchum: Ha! Run away if you want too. I'm not scared. I'm not gonna let that ugly sea witch hurt our best friend and the sea. Right, Pikachu? (Pikachu cowardly hides in his sleeping bag) Pikachu.... All right. We'll do this in the morning. Hey! (hides in his own sleeping bag) Make sure you don't wake me up too early, okay? 'Night, guys.

Misty: TIME TO WAKE UP!!! (bangs the gong really loud and wakes Ash and Pikachu up)

Ash Ketchum: Maybe I'll be a little braver tomorrow morning. (Misty sighs)

Jack Skellington: (groans) All right, enough of this foolishness. Your cowardice over Ursula's lair is getting nowhere. So, how's about we do this. We'll all go in there while holding hands.

Brock: Good idea

-

Flotsam & Jetsam: This way!

-

"Poor Unfortunate Souls/Ursula's Deal/Ariel Become a Human
Ursula: Come in. Come in, my child. We mustn't lurk in doorways. It's rude. One might question your upbringing. (chuckles as she looks herself in the mirror) Now then, you’re here because you have a thing for this human: this, eh, prince fellow. Not that I blame you. He is quite a catch, isn't he? (chuckles) Well, angelfish, the solution to your problem is simple. The only way to get what you want is to become a human yourself.

Ariel: Can you do that?

Ursula: My dear, sweet child. That's what I do. It's what I live for: to help unfortunate merfolk, like yourself. Poor souls with no one else to turn too.

[Ursula]

All Heroes:(horror)

(Her tail

Ash Ketchum: She can't breath underwater!

Jack Skellington: Quickly! We gotta get her to the surface!

(They made out just in time

Our Heores is on Land/Meet Eric
(Prince Eric is sitting by the shore, playing his fife. He couldn't stop thinking about the mysterious girl who saved him from the storm. He paces around while Max happily barks.)

Prince Eric: That voice. I can't get it out of my head. (kneels down to his dog) I looked everywhere, Max. Where could she be?

(Cut to see our heroes)

Misty: (breathes heavily) Never...never have I been so glad to see the light of day! Never has the air felt so fresh and clean!

Brock: (breathes heavily) Oh, boy. The sky never looked so blue. (sighs) Oh, what mercy that we reached land on time.

Mako: Yeah. (hits his head to get water out of his ears) I thought for sure we'd never make it. (coughs) Certainly feels great to be back on dry land again.

Ash Ketchum: Ariel, are you okay?

(Ariel wakes up only to see her legs and rises up and sees her new foot and then wiggles her toes in happiness)

Scuttle: Well, look at what the catfish dragged in! (laughs and lands on Ariel's new legs) Look at ya. Look at ya. There's something different. Don't tell me. I got it. It's your hairdo, right? You've been using the dinglehopper, right? (Ariel shakes her head) No? No, huh? Well, let me see. New seashells? (Ariel doesn't answer) No new seashells. (Ariel shakes her leg) I gotta admit, I can't put my foot on it right now, (Ash, Sebastian and the gang are annoyed at Scuttle's stupidity) but if I just stand here long enough, I just know that…

Sebastian: SHE'S GOT LEGS, YOU IDIOT! She traded her voice to the sea witch and got legs. Geez, man!

Scuttle: I knew that.

Misty: (sarcastically) Oh, sure you did, Scuttle. Sure you did.

Korra: Look at her, Scuttle. Ariel's been transformed into a human.

Brock: Yeah. And she's got to make the prince fall in love with her and he's gotta kiss her.

Ash Ketchum: And she's only got three days.

Mako: (sees Ariel tripping over her new feet) Oh, watch it, watch it, watch it!

Sebastian: Just look at her! On legs! On human legs! (gasps) My nerves are shot. This is a catastrophe! What would her father say? I'll tell you what her father would say. He said he's gonna kill himself a crab! That's what her father would say! I'm gonna march meself straight home right now and tell him like I (gets scooped up by Ariel) should have done the minute...(Ariel shakes her head "no") And don't you shake your head at me, young lady. Maybe there's still time. If we could get that witch to give you back your voice, you could go home with all the normal fish and just be...

Korra: Sebastian!

(Ariel makes a sad, gloomy look on her face at Sebastian)

Sebastian: Eh, just be...

Ash Ketchum: Sebastian, please.

Sebastian: (gives in) Just be miserable for the rest of your life.

Brock: Sebastian, Ariel's been through enough with father's temper tantrums. Let's not make her suffer anymore.

Sebastian: (sighs) All right, all right. I'll try to help you find that prince. (get kissed by Ariel and is set down on a rock) Boy, what a soft shell I'm turning out to be.

Mako: Well, looks like we're gonna do what we gotta do.

Kronk: But what will the king think about this? We can't keep secrets forever. Remember what happened the last time we did that?

Zhane: Yeah, it wasn't pretty. But we got over it eventually.

Trini Kwan: Honestly, guys. I don't care what King Triton's gonna say anymore. He's done quite enough to begin with.

Jason Lee Scott: Yeah! After the way he went on a violent rampage and destroyed the grotto with his trident.

Tomax Oliver: And the way he insulted us with those horrible words.

Zack Taylor: Yeah. After hearing those hurtful words from him, I'm afraid to go anywhere near that king now.

Kimberly Ann Hart: But Ariel's his daughter, guys. We can't keep them separated for the rest of their lives.

Ash Ketchum: It looks like we have no other choice but to bend with Ursula's rules. Besides, I'm already on bad terms with the sea king and Ariel.

Bolin: So, now what do we do?

Ash Ketchum: We've got to help Ariel win Eric's heart. It's the only way to save her from becoming Ursula's slave. And possibly earn her trust in me again.

Bolin: By the way, Ash. How do you know this Ursula person anyway?

Ash Ketchum: Ursula is one of the most dangerous enemies I've ever faced. I first encountered her a while ago when Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Pikachu and I were kidnapped and held hostage by Cruella De Vil in London. During some of our visits in Atlantica, I learned from Sebastian that Ursula used to be part of King Triton's royal court until her banishment. She had always been a major concern for me because she tried to take over Atlantica with so many schemes and plans. Luckily, Ariel, Sebastian, and I managed to foil them with some help from other sea creatures. But after seeing Ariel agreeing to Ursula's dark deal, it shocked me to an extent. I'm not sure what she's really planning on doing. But whatever it is, I'm not gonna let her win.

Brock: Neither will we, Ash.

Mako: But what about King Triton? What's he gonna say about this?

Ash Ketchum: We will think about that later. Right now, we need to help Ariel find that prince.

All Heroes: (murmurs in agreement)

Korra: Good idea, Ash. But there's one teensy little problem.

Ash Ketchum: What is that?

Korra: She's naked.

Ash Ketchum: Huh? (turns and notices that Korra is right, Ariel is naked as a result of her transformation into a human; he freaks out and covers his eyes in embarrassment) Oh, man. How embarrassing. I forgot to mention Ariel that humans need to wear clothes. (everyone laughs while covering their eyes)

Mako: It's alright, Ash. We'll just need to find something for her to wear.

Scuttle: Don't worry, guys. I've got this. Now Ariel, I’m tellin' ya, (picks up an old ship sail) if you wanna be a human, the first thing you gotta do is dress like one. Now let me see.

(

Prince Eric:

-

Scuttle: (whistle) You look great, kid. You look sensational.

Misty: Hmm. Not bad, Scuttle. Not exactly we what had in mind, but not bad.

Ash Ketchum: Now, all we need to do is to find that pr-

(Suddenly, everyone heard Max's bark nearby and looked. They spotted Max running towards them. Flounder got spooked and hid underwater.)

Brock: Mad dog on the loose!

Ash Ketchum: Take cover!

(Scuttle flew off, and Sebastian, knowing that Ariel would need her, rushed to the girl and hid in her dress. Ariel tried getting away from Max, but the hyper sheepdog kept intercepting her at every turn. Ariel got on a small rock as Max licked her face.)

Prince Eric:

Billy Cranston: Well, that was easy.

Bolin: Looks like they're gonna be alright after all.

Ash Ketchum: Hold it, guys. We're not done yet. We need to keep an eye on them and make sure things go smoothly with them.

Kimberly: I bet Prince Eric won't mind if we stay in his castle for a few days.

Misty: He might also have extra beds for us. A giant clam shell underwater is no way for me to get my beauty sleep.

Brock: And it might be more comfortable and drier in his castle.

Ash Ketchum: Yeah, you're right, Brock. Okay, let's get ourselves cleaned up and join the prince for dinner.

(Later in Eric's castle, Ariel was introduced to the castle servants. The first order of business was to clean Ariel up and get her washed for dinner. In her tub, filled with bubbles, Ariel played with them, overcome by fascination. Carlotta, the castle maid, was nearby and she helped in getting Ariel cleaned up.)

Carlotta: Washed up from a shipwreck. Oh, the poor thing. We'll have you feeling better in no time.

(Sebastian, who was hiding in Ariel's sail dress, peaked out, but saw Carlotta overhead, taking the dress and preparing to leave the room.)

Carlotta: I'll just...I'll just get this washed for you.

(In another room, the dress was put in large tub and some of the servants helped wash it. Unfortunately, Sebastian was still stuck in the dress, and he couldn't get out.)

Servant 1: Well, you must've at least heard about this girl.

Servant 2: No.

Servant 1: Well, Gretchen says...(washes the dress which makes Sebastian very uncomfortable) Since when has Gretchen got anything right? (Sebastian belches out bubbles) I mean really. (Sebastian: Madam...) This girl shows up in rags and doesn’t speak… (Sebastian gets squished by the presser along with the dress, but he recovered immediately afterward, though he landed on the dress in the laundry basket) It's not my idea of a princess. (takes the dress and hangs it on the clothesline) If Eric’s looking for a girl, I know a couple of highly available ones right here.

(As the dress was hung from the clothesline, it was moved towards the nearby castle. Sebastian jumped out and landed in a room through a window. Relieved to be out of that experience, Sebastian started to get up, but as he did, he saw something absolutely horrifying: beheaded fish with sharp blades, cooked mollusks in a pan, and worst of all, stuffed crab in plates. This was the castle kitchen, and the sight of so many dead sea creatures was too much for Sebastian to take. He fainted in fear.)

"Les Poissons"/Ash reveals why King Triton hates humans/King Triton feeling guilty
(Meanwhile, at the dining room, Eric was standing near the window, looking out into the distance.)

Grimsby: Oh Eric, be reasonable. Nice young ladies just don't swim around, rescuing people in the middle of the ocean and then flutter off into oblivion, like some…

Prince Eric: I'm telling you, Grim, she was real. I'm gonna find that girl. And I'm gonna marry her.

Servant 3: (clears throat) Your majesty, we have visitors.

Ash Ketchum: (peaking through the keyhole) Okay, guys, they're gonna let us in now. So, remember, we're doing this for Ariel's sake. Don't say anything about Ursula, her cronies, King Triton, Atlantica, merpeople, or any of that stuff. Be dignified and act naturally.

All Heroes: Got it.

(Later that night, Ariel is watching Eric playing with Max from the balcony above.)

Prince Eric: (whistles) Come here, boy.

-

Sebastian: (removing the food particles off his shell) This has got to be without a doubt the single most humiliating day of my life.

Zhane: We're really sorry we made you go through all that, Sebastian. But we couldn't help it being Prince Eric's guests to his castle.

Sebastian: I am not blaming it on any of you for this. (gets patted on the head by Ariel) I hope you appreciate what we go through for you, young lady. Now, we got to make a plan to get that boy to kiss you. Tomorrow, when he takes you for that ride, you gotta look your best.

Tommy Oliver: Most definitely. We all agreed to go with them for the tour of the kingdom. That will be a good chance for Ariel and Eric to know each other.

Ash Ketchum: Great idea, Tommy!

Misty: The more those two bond together, the better we'll have a chance of getting them to fall in love.

Bolin: And Ariel needs to look her best, just like what Sebastian said.

Sebastian: That's right. Now Ariel, you gotta bat your eyes...like this. (bats his eyes, then puckered up his lips) You gotta pucker up your lips...like this.

(Ariel is already sound asleep)

Kimberly Ann Hart: How about that? Looks like Ariel is starting to get used to the way things are on land.

Billy Cranston: Looks like it.

Zack Taylor: Yep. So far so good.

Ash Ketchum: I just hope we'd get her to kiss Eric on time before the sun sets on the third day.

Misty: Oh, don't worry, Ash. We will. (sees Ash feeling upset) Still upset about what happened in the grotto?

Ash Ketchum: (sighs) Yeah... (turns to Ariel sleeping)

Jason Lee Scott: Now I don't mean to be rude and all, but Ash, how in the world were you able to make friends with King Triton even if he has an incredibly explosive temper?

Tomax Oliver: And why is Ariel so important to you?

Kimberly Ann Hart: And why is King Triton so against humans?

Ash Ketchum: (takes a deep breath and sighs; knowing that it's time for his friends to know the real truth) Okay, I guess it's time that Sebastian and I tell you what's really going on. It was a while back when we all first met them during our underwater exploration in Atlantica. That was when Triton was still in power and was a lot more strict than he is right now.

Sebastian: (crawls up on Ash's shoulder) It was a very difficult time for Ariel. She grew up in a world with no music, no fun, and without a mother.

(Everyone gasps)

Trini Kwan: She doesn't have a mother?

Korra: That's terrible.

Ash Ketchum: Well, during our first visitation in Atlantica, Sebastian told me, and Ariel at one time, that when she and her sisters were very little, King Triton loved taking them to the surface world where they can play and have fun. He even loved hearing his wife sing beautiful songs to them. He loved the queen like he had never loved anyone before in his life.

Asami Sato: So, what happened to her?

Ash Ketchum: Then one day, on their wedding anniversary, King Triton gave his wife a beautiful music box as a present. It was a happy moment for them. Then all of a sudden, a group of vicious pirates appeared and that's when things went out of control. The pirates attacked them and stolen any kind of treasure they possessed. King Triton and his daughters managed to get away, but Ariel's mother wasn't so lucky. She stayed behind to recover her music box. But unfortunately, she ended up....ended up...

Zhane: Getting killed?

(Ash somberly nods his head, saying yes. All of his friends felt very sad when they heard the story.)

Sebastian: When Ariel's mother died, the entire kingdom was heart-broken. And the heart that we feared would never heal....was her father's.

Ash Ketchum: And since that tragic time, her father detested all humans.

Korra: So, that explains why King Triton hates humanity. Because a group of pirates murdered his wife on the day of their anniversary.

Ash Ketchum: Yes. When we first came to Atlantica, we didn't know anything about it. By then, we were doing some underwater explorations to find new water-type Pokémon. But when we discovered the kingdom, it was when music was banned as a result of the queen's death. I thought it was the most stupidest thing to do, and someone else agreed with me. (points to Ariel) It was Ariel.

Kronk: So you and Ariel are good friends during that time?

Ash Ketchum: Yes, but here's the thing. When I first met Ariel, she thought I was a merperson like her. But in actuality, I wasn't because my legs and feet were wrapped up in seaweed and an old fishing net.

Zhane: So, that explains why you kept telling us to bring mermaid swimwear every time we visit Atlantica. Because Ariel mistook you for a merperson during your first meeting.

Ash Ketchum: Yeah. When I heard about the banning of music in Atlantica, I had a really bad feeling that the king might also have a hatred to humans. I was afraid of what he might do to me if I revealed myself to him. So, in order to protect my true identity, I had no choice but to dress up like a merperson to fit in with the other merfolk. Thankfully, I secretly asked Jack if Dr. Finklestein can make a potion that will allow me to breathe underwater for a long period of time. And he agreed.

Asami Sato: I see.

Ash Ketchum: I even made him make as many bottles as he could so that way we would have plenty of it during our visitations to Atlantica. But even so, while we did managed to get the king to lift the banning of music, we were unable to get him to change his mind about humans. You see, during our visits, he always told us, including Ariel, to never go near any humans. Ironically, he did not know that I'm a human myself. Because I was so scared of revealing my identity to him.

Trini Kwan: So, during your first meeting, you never told King Triton that you're a human?

Ash Ketchum: Yes.

Tomax Oliver: And you didn't even tell Ariel?

Ash Ketchum: I would've told her, but I couldn't. Because she wasn't too interested in humans at that time. But after a while, she became fascinated in them and started disobeying her father more frequently. Even if humans interested her, I couldn't feel the urge to tell her anything about me or you guys. It would've caused her to lose her trust in me. After everything we've been through in our adventures, after how she looked out for me when I needed her, and even after when she called me her best friend. But now that she knows who we really are, I felt so bad about lying to her and hurting her feelings. And now that the king knows too, I fear that he will never allow us to come to Atlantica anymore. All because I made the most stupidest mistake in my life: lying to a mermaid who looked up to me as a friend. (He started to cry.)

Jack Skellington: There, there, Ash. Do not worry about the king right now.

Asami Sato: Yeah. At least we tried our best to show him what we really are, though it didn't work out the way we hoped. But now, we need to focus on helping Ariel win Prince Eric's heart and save her from becoming Ursula's slave.

Trini Kwan: And besides, you had good intentions. You were just trying to protect us and Ariel's secret from King Triton's anger.

Ash Ketchum: (looks at Ariel then turns back to his friends) Maybe you're right. Even if I did do a terrible thing to a really good friend, I hope we can do it. Hopefully, it would be enough to atone for what I did and maybe regain Ariel's trust.

Sebastian: Ash, I remember that you had an extraordinary amount of loyalty to Ariel wherever you visit us in Atlantica. Maybe you can show her that same loyalty to her here on land. That way, she will be saved from Ursula's wrath and she might even forgive you.

Ash Ketchum: Y-you think so, Sebastian?

Sebastian: Yes, Ash. I know so.

Ash Ketchum: (slowly starts to feel better) Thank you for understanding who we are and where we're from.

Sebastian: Oh, don't mention it, man. It might not have been easy to get used to at first, but I've grown to see what a special friend you've become. So, from now on, I don't care who you and your friends are nor where you're from anymore.

Brock: That's great to hear. (looks at his watch) Hmm. It's getting late. We should go get some rest. We have a busy day for Ariel tomorrow.

Misty: (yawns) Yeah. I agree. We need to be ready for her.

Tommy Oliver: Absolutely. Good night, everyone.

(The heroes begin leaving Ariel's room and head off to bed. Sebastian blows out the candle and hops on to Ariel's pillow.)

Sebastian: You are hopeless, child. You know that. (lays down on the pillow) Completely hopeless. (yawns and goes to sleep)

(As the others left to go to sleep, Ash stayed behind and looked at Ariel. He walks up to her, tucks her in a warm blanket, and places his hand on her head. He leaned in closer to whisper in her ear)

Ash Ketchum: (whispering) Ariel, trust me when I'm saying this. I may not have been who you thought I was, but I'm still gonna stay by your side. Just like before.

(Ash turns and leaves the room, now full of confidence and determination to complete the task and make sure Ariel is safe. Meanwhile, back in Atlantica, King Triton heard about his daughter's disappearance and has ordered everyone to go on a search party to find her. The seahorse herald arrives as the king paced back in forth, worrying about his daughter.)

King Triton: Any sign of them?

Seahorse Herald: No, your majesty. We searched everywhere. We've found no trace of your daughter or Sebastian.

King Triton: What about Ash and his friends? Did you find them by any chance?

Seahorse Herald: I'm afraid not, sir. They're nowhere to be seen either. It's most likely that they've vanished alongside your daughter.

King Triton: Well, keep looking. Leave no shell unturned, no coral unexplored. Let no one in this kingdom sleep until they're all safe at home.

Seahorse Herald: Yes, sire. (bows and leaves)

(Now alone, King Triton sulks in his throne, feeling guilty about destroying the treasures in Ariel's grotto and how he treated Ash and his friends.)

King Triton: Oh, what have I done? What have I done?

Misty: 'Morning, Trini. 'Morning, Kimberly.

Korra: Good morning. Today's the day, everyone.

Tommy Oliver:

Ash Ketchum: (yawns) Come on, Pikachu. Another day, another adventure.

Ash Ketchum: Did he kiss her yet, Jack?

Jack Skellington: Not yet.

(Ash groans in anger)

Scuttle: Yo, Flounder! Any kissing?

Flounder: No, not yet.

Scuttle: Hmm. Well, they better get crackin'.

-

-

Flounder: Move over. Move your big feathers. I can't see a thing.

Scuttle: Nothing is happening. Only one day left and that boy ain't puckered up once.

Misty: I know. This is not going the way we wanted.

-

-

-

-

Scuttle: Okay. Alright, this calls for a little vocal romantic stimulation.

Brock: Oh, music. Good idea.

Zhane: But the problem is we don't have any instruments. How can we make romantic music without instruments

Scuttle: Just watch. (flies up to a tree) Stay back. (lands on a branch and scares off birds; after clearing his throat, Scuttle started singing, but his singing was not very good, nor was it romantic like he perceived.)

Prince Eric: Whoa. Somebody should find that poor animal and put it out of its misery.

(Ariel saw Scuttle singing above them and felt embarrassed. Scuttle winked at Ariel, but Ariel did not feel comfortable at all with the seagull’s singing. Sebastian was also on the boat and he didn’t like Scuttle’s singing either.)

Sebastian: Geez, man! I'm surrounded by amateurs!

(On shore, Ash and the gang are holding their ears shut. They didn't like Scuttle's singing at all.)

Tommy Oliver: (groans) I can't stand it anymore!

Brock: Now, you guys know how Ash, Misty, and I feel whenever Squidward plays his clarinet horribly.

Ash Ketchum: (quietly) Sebastian, do something. Please? My ears can't take it much longer.

Sebastian: Don't worry Ash. I'm on it (as he jump in the lake

I'll see him wriggle like a worm on a hook! (laughs evilly as she slowly turns into a human)

(That afternoon, under the twilight sky, the wedding ship slowly started leaving the docks with Eric, Vanessa and a few others onboard. On the dock, Ariel, in her same dress from yesterday watched the ship leave. Ariel was absolutely horrified at how Eric dumped her for Vanessa. She didn’t know how or why he would do that, especially after the special day he had with her, but with Eric planning to marry Vanessa, and the sun close to setting on the third day, her final day of being human, things were now hopeless for the girl. She slowly sat on the dock and starting sobbing. Sebastian stood by her side, feeling terrible for the helpless girl. He felt guilt for having failed in helping Ariel win Eric’s heart. As Ariel cried, she looked at the ship, having headed a distance away from the docks as a tear landed in the water. Flounder, having heard of Eric dumping Ariel for Vanessa, was equally sad and helpless. He now felt that he was going to lose his best friend to the sea witch forever. Ash and his friends are still shocked after what just happened.)

Kimberly Ann Hart: I can't believe he did that. We were so close.

Tommy Oliver: And it was our last chance. We've really messed up for sure.

Ash Ketchum: (falls to his knees and sigh somberly) We failed. How can Eric shut Ariel out like that after all we've did to make them closer? It doesn't make sense.

Asami Sato: Ash, don't be so hard on yourself. It wasn't your fault.

Ash Ketchum: (stands up and snaps) Don't you guys get it?! Today was our last chance in getting Eric to kiss Ariel and save her from Ursula! Our attempts were in vain! Everything we did was a total failure! And now that Eric's out there marrying some brunette girl, it's obvious that Ursula's gonna win!

(Everyone looked at Ash with sad looks. They tried thinking of something to say to cheer him up, but they couldn't think of anything. They realized that Ash is right about Ariel becoming Ursula’s property at this point.)

Ash Ketchum: (clenches his fists) But if Ursula plans on taking Ariel as her prisoner, then she's gonna have to take me instead!

Misty: What?!

Brock: Huh?!

Everyone: (gasps)

Jack Skellington: Ash, that's crazy talk!

Trini Kwan: We need you!

Korra: What would we do without you?

Ash Ketchum: Ariel's our best friend, guys! She's been important friend to us for a long time! And I can't stand around and watch her suffer the pain from Ursula's wrath! I'm staying by her side, just like how she did to me when we visited her in Atlantica.

(Ariel looked at Ash, who stared at the ocean with determination. Seeing how Ash was putting her desire to be free in front of his own, Ariel started tearing up. She flung her arms around Ash and hugged him, feeling terrible for misjudging him and for getting herself into this situation. Ash comforted Ariel as everyone watched the ship leave, feeling terrible for Ariel and fearing they would lose Ash for good.)

Ash Ketchum: (quietly) I'm not gonna let that monster take you, Ariel. I promise.

Pikachu: Pika, pi.

Stop the Wedding/Ariel turn back into a Mermaid/King Triton's Decision
(Scuttle is happily humming to himself as he flew over the wedding ship. All of a sudden, he hears someone singing and peaks in their the porthole. But what he sees is not Ariel, but Vanessa.)

Ursula/Vanessa: (singing) What a lovely little bride, I'll make my dear I'll look divine (cackles) Things are working out according to my ultimate design (throws a pin to the mirror; Scuttle becomes scared, not liking the girl at all) Soon I'll have that little mermaid and the ocean will be mine (climbs on the dresser and looks in the mirror; as she cackles, the reflection of Ursula is shown)

Scuttle: (shocked) The sea witch! Oh, no. She's gonna...I gotta...

(He flew into the ship's wall. He turned and flew back to the docks.)

Scuttle: Ariel! Ariel!

Ash Ketchum: Scuttle?

Scuttle: Ariel!

Ash Ketchum: Scuttle, what is it? What's the matter?

Scuttle: I was flying, I wa...of course I was flying...and I...I saw...that the watch, the witch was watchin' a mirror...(everyone looks at Scuttle strangely) and she was singing with a stolen set of pipes! (picks up Sebastian) Do you hear what I'm telling you?! The prince is marrying the sea witch in disguise!

Jack Skellington: What?!

Ash Ketchum: Huh?!

Sebastian: Are you sure about this?

Scuttle: Have I ever been wrong? I mean when it's important?

Zhane: The prince marrying the sea witch? That doesn't make any sense. It's not like Ursula is going to walk up to Eric and say, "will you marry me, my handsome prince?" I mean how can that be possible if he was spending his happy moments with Ariel here?

Kimberly Ann Hart: Hmm....Hey, wait a minute! Tommy, didn't we recall hearing Eric saying that he and the brunette girl want to get married at sunset this morning?

Tommy Oliver: Uh, yes. Come to think of it, he never mentioned anything about a brunette girl during our stay. Nor does he seem to know her.

Brock: So, if Eric's marrying the brunette on the Ariel's third day at sunset, then that must mean....

(Everyone looks at each other in surprise)

Everyone: Prince Eric's being manipulated into marrying Ursula in disguise!

Ash Ketchum: (pounds on the pole in anger) I should've known she was behind this! How dare she play on our emotions with her trickery!

Kronk: Has she impersonated someone like this before?

Ash Ketchum: No, but to think we thought Prince Eric was dumping Ariel when we should've been suspicious about what was actually happening!

Flounder: What are we gonna do?

(Ariel stand up and ran to see the boat on the sunset remember what Ursula said)

Ursula (V.O.): Before the sun sets on the third day.

(She began to run and jump off the dock into the ocean but with out her tail she can't swim)

Ash Ketchum: Ariel! (Then he jump into the ocean and help her) Sebastian, cut the ropes that are holding the barrels!

Sebastian: (he cut the ropes with his claw and barrels fall into the ocean) Ariel, grab on to that. Flounder, help Ash get her to that boat as fast as your fins can carry you.

Flounder: I'll try.

Tommy Oliver: Come guys, we got to get to that boat before it's too late.

Ash Ketchum: Right. Kronk and Zhane, you go with Sebastian and get King Triton. Brock, find Officer Jenny and the SWAT Team and bring them to the ship to seize Ursula. The rest of you guys, get to the ship and stall the wedding as long as you can.

Kronk: Uh, Ash, you're forgetting one tiny little detail. The sea king hates humans, remember?

Ash Ketchum: There's no time to think about that! Look, once he knows that Ariel's in danger, he'll put aside his hatred and come help us. Now, go! Time's wasting!

Sebastian: Ash's right. We've got to get to the sea king. He must know about this.

Scuttle: W-What about me? What about...

Sebastian: You! Go with Ash's friends a find away to stall that wedding!

Scuttle: Stall the wedding. But what I am? Wha.. That's it! Guys follow me, I have an idea.

Billy Cranston: Lead the way Scuttle

(Scuttle flew to the area where the plan had failed then he called all birds and the sea creatures)

Scuttle: Come on everyone! well go! We got an emergency here!

Jack Skellington: Come on guys we cannot Ursula win.

Misty: It's time to crash the wedding!

Vanessa: Oh

Ash Ketchum: Ariel, your voice is back!

Prince Eric: Ariel?

Ariel: Eric! (Max runs to Ariel and barks happily at her)

Prince Eric: You..you can talk.

Ash Ketchum: Of course she can talk, Eric. (points to Ariel) She's the one who you're meant to be with. She's the girl who saved you from the storm.

Prince Eric: She...she really is. (walks over to Ariel) You're the one.

Ursula/Vanessa: Eric, get away from her.

Brock: (arrives with Officer Jenny) Not so fast, sea witch!

Prince Eric: It was you all the time

Ariel: Oh, Eric, I - I wanted to tell you.

Ursula/Vanessa: Eric no!

(The sun is setting)

Ariel: (grunt) (She transform back into a mermaid)

Ash Ketchum: Ariel!

All Heroes:(horror)

Ursula/Vanessa: You're too late! (laughing) You're too late!

(She's transform back to normal.)

(Ursula laugh)

(Ash defend Ariel

Ash Ketchum: Stay away from her, you ugly beast!

Ursula: Oh, yeah? (grabs Ash by the foot with her tentacle and flings him across the ship)

(Ash crashes into the ship's curtains and decorations behind the altar.)

Pikachu: Pika, pi!

Ursula: (cackles as she crawls on the ship floor and grabs Ariel) So long, lover boy. (jumps into the water with Ariel)

Prince Eric: Ariel!

(Ash, slightly injured, crawls himself out from under the curtains, grunting in pain)

Tommy Oliver: Ash, you alright?

Korra: Do you have feeling in your toes?

Ash Ketchum: Yes, Korra, I have feeling in my toes. (grunts in pain and Jack helps him up)

Brock: Ash!

Misty: Ash, are you okay?

Ash Ketchum: (grunts) I'm fine. Just fine. (limps to the side of the ship and looks down at the ocean in anger) But Ariel's still in danger. We've got to save her and stop Ursula once and for all!

(Meanwhile, in the Charicific Valley, Liza and Charla are watching the news story about Prince Eric's wedding. Ash's Charizard, who is drinking water from the fountain, walks over to the window to watch the news. However, when he saw Ash's failed attempt to save Ariel from the sea witch, he becomes worried and looks to the sky.)

Ursula: Poor little princess. It's not you I'm after. I have a much bigger fish to...

King Triton: Ursula, STOP!!

Sebastian: Hmph!

Ursula: Why, King Triton. (chuckles) How are you?

King Triton: Let her go!

Zhane: You heard the king! Unhand her right now!

Ursula: Not a chance, you fools! She's mine now! We made a deal.

Ariel: Daddy I'm sorry! I-I-I didn't mean to! I didn't know.

(He blast her with his trident but it didn't work)

Ursula: (laughs) You see? The contract's legal. Binding and completely unbreakable. Even for you.

Zhane: Why you monstrous creature!

Ursula: Silence, you fools! Not even your human talents can break my contract and neither can your leader. Besides, what can you do anyway to save your friend? She's agreed with the terms of the contract and there's nothing you can do to stop me. Of course, I've always was a girl with an eye for a bargain. The daughter of the great sea king is a very precious commodity.

(Ursula's contract zoomed over to Flotsam and Jetsam, who are holding Ariel hostage. It circled around her before shrinking her down into a polyp. Triton tries to save his daughter, but was halted by Ursula.)

Ursula: But...I might be willing to make an exchange for someone even better.

(Above the surface, Ash and friends are with Eric on a lifeboat to rescue Ariel)

Grimsby: Eric, what are you doing?

Prince Eric: Grim, I lost her once, I'm not gonna lose her again!

Ash Ketchum: Hang on, Ariel, we're coming!

(Ariel was slowly turning into a polyp)

Ursula: Now, do we have a deal?

Zhane: Triton, no! You can't!

Kronk: If you make the deal, she'll destroy everything!

King Triton: I'm afraid... I don't have much of a choice. (As he points the trident and signs his name on the contract)

Ursula: Ha! It's done then!

(Ariel was free from the spell. Then it went to King Triton and began to turn him into a polyp while Ursula laughing)

Zhane: King Triton!

Ariel: Oh, no!

(Back Above the surface Eric, Ash and his friends were right on top of them watching the glowing light in the water)

Korra: You don't think it's Ursula's spell on Ariel do you?

Ash Ketchum: I hope not.

Final Battle
(When the spell was complete we King Triton became a polyp)

Sebastian: Your majesty.

Ariel: Daddy?

Ursula: At last. (takes King Triton's crown) It's mine! (evil laugh)

Ariel: You...(tackles Ursula) You monster!

Ursula: Don't fool with me, you little brat! Contract or no, I'll...

(Someone throw a spear that cut Ursula's arm. She look up and sees Eric, Ash and his friends)

All heroes: Let Ariel go!

Ursula: Why you bunch of little fools!

Ariel: Ash! Eric! Look out!

Ursula: After them!

(Flotsam and Jetsam slither up to the Ash and Eric)

Korra: Oh, no you don't, you sea snakes! (uses her water-bending powers on the eels)

Misty: Zhane, where's the sea king?

Zhane: Ursula made him sign the contract in order to save Ariel and he turned into one of those things! (points to King Triton as a polyp)

Brock: WHAT?! Oh, that does it! She's going down!

Misty: Let's do this, Brock! Go, Staryu!

Brock:

(Ash and Eric try to get on boat, but Flotsam and Jetsam got them

Sebastian: Come on!

(Sebastian pinched on Flotsam and Flounder tail slap on Jetsam.

Ursula: Say good-bye to your best friend and your sweetheart.

(Ariel grab Ursula by the hair which made her and hit Flotsam & Jetsam instead)

Ursula: Babies! My poor little poopsies! (growls in anger)

(Ariel, Ash and his friends made it up surface just in time, Then dark clouds swoll around Ursula as her voice get deeper. Flounder and Sebastian were shock as the cloud get bigger and bigger)

Ariel: Eric, Ash, guys, you gotta get away from here.

Prince Eric: No, I won't leave you!

Ash Ketchum: Neither are we! (notices something in the water) LOOK OUT!!!

(Ursula grew bigger as she laughing deeper)

Jack Skellington: Eric, Ariel, jump down here!

(Ursula become a giant,as Ariel and Eric jump off Ursula's head on time. She continues laughing)

Ash Ketchum: (scared)

Misty: Ursula!

Brock: Jumbo size!

Ursula: You pitiful, insignificant fools!

Eric: Look out!

(Ursula's tentacles comes down but the heroes manage to dodge her quickly)

Ursula: Now I am the ruler of all the oceans! The waves obey my every whim!

(The waves pulled Ash and Eric away from Ariel and the rest of the group.)

Ariel: Ash! Eric!

(Eric and Ash were unable to swim to the mermaid and they were sent flying a distance from their friends.)

Ursula: The sea and all its spoils bow to my power!

(She creating a whirlpool)

Brock: A whirlpool

Tommy Oliver: She's creating a powerful storm.

Mako:

(The old ships

Ariel: Eric!

-

(Ursula fires her trident

Ash Ketchum: Ariel!

Misty: Oh no! Ariel is in trouble!

(Ash, not wanting to give up on Ariel, climbs on the rock he was holding on and stands firmly)

Ash Ketchum: Pikachu, Iron Tail!

-

Ash Ketchum: Leave Ariel alone, you monster!

Ursula: You little fool! She's not the only one who'll be perishing at my hands! You'll be dying along with her! (fires her trident at Ash and Pikachu and sends him falling into the same whirlpool Ariel fell in)

Misty: Ash! Pikachu!

Brock: No!

All heroes: (horror)

Ash Ketchum: Pikachu!

(Ash grabs onto Pikachu and they both prepare to brace for impact.)

Ariel: (sees Ash falling towards her) Ash!

(Suddenly, a stream of fire blasts Ursula from behind, catching everyone including Ariel by surprise. Then, a dark figure flies down and grabs Ash and Pikachu. Ash opens his eyes and sees the rescuer is none other than his Charizard!)

Ash Ketchum: Charizard!

Pikachu: Pika!

(Charizard roars really loud)

Misty: It's Charizard!

Brock: Well, what do you know! I haven't seen it in ages!

Billy Cranston: That's Ash's Charizard?

Zhane: But how did it get here?

Tommy Oliver: It must've flown here when it learned that Ash was in need of help.

(Charizard stares angrily at Ursula and lets out a mighty roar)

Ursula: How dare you interfere! (fires her trident at Charizard)

(Charizard builds up its power and fires a really powerful Dragon Rage attack. The two energy attacks collide and create an explosion. Everyone, including Ariel, takes cover from the explosion's force. The smoke clears and Charizard is still flying. Ursula is stunned at what Charizard did and shook in fear.)

Kimberly Ann Hart: Wow! That was incredible.

Korra: His Charizard has grown more powerful than ever.

Jack Skellington: Amazing!

(Charizard places Ash and Pikachu on its back.)

Ash Ketchum: Thanks so much, Charizard. We owe you one. Now, let's defeat her together with our true power!

(Charizard grunts in agreement)

Ursula: Fool! You think you have what it takes to defeat me with that creature?

Ash Ketchum: Don't get cocky, Ursula! My Charizard is incredibly stronger than you and it will take you down! (looks down at King Triton) King Triton, I know you come to think that humans are dangerous and violent monsters. But there's something you don't realize about them. There are humans out there that are kind, generous, honest, brave, loyal, and very compassion to anyone. (turns over to Ursula) Humans are not meant to hurt the kingdom of Atlantica. I've seen humans do wonderful things to the oceans around the world. And year after year, the creatures of the deep managed to live in peace and harmony, thanks to humanity's generous acts of kindness and love! I may have made a horrible mistake in lying to the kingdom about me and my friends being merfolk. But as humans, it doesn't mean shouldn't show the ocean creatures how much we care about them! We respect all living things in this world and we will do what it takes to protect them from evil doers like you, Ursula!

(King Triton, as a polyp, overheard Ash's speech and was deeply touched. Sebastian and Flounder was deeply touched as well. Ariel smiled at Ash.)

Ursula: Hmm. A very touching speech, boy. But that's still not going to stop me from becoming the mighty ruler of the oceans!

Ash Ketchum: We'll just see about that, sea witch!

(Charizard roars and flies up towards Ursula to begin the ultimate battle)

(Eric

(Ursula evil laugh)

Ursula: So much for true love!

-

Ash Ketchum: We're not finished yet, Ursula! You may think you're so powerful, well, we won't let your evil rule the oceans!

-

Ash Ketchum: THIS ENDS NOW!!! Pikachu, Charizard, fire a supercharged Flamethrower-Thunderbolt combination down the sea witch's throat!

(They fire a combination of thunderbolt and flamethrower)

Ursula:

(Ursula

-

(Eric crawls to the shore and collapses from exhaustion. Ash is still in the air with Charizard and Pikachu. Ash looks down and sees the remains of his enemy sinking into the ocean while the storm clears.)

Ash Ketchum: (sighs) Finally. It's over.

(Charizard turns and flies to the shore. The crown and trident sank alongside them. Some of the remains sank into Ursula’s lair. All the polyps that surrounded the lair saw that Ursula had been killed and started smiling. They suddenly changed back into merpeople as the effects from the witch’s spells wore off for good. As the merpeople left the abandoned lair, the trident and crown landed near the polyp that was Triton. His spell also wore off and he was transformed back into his merman form. He happily took his trident, regaining his royal status as the rightful ruler of the ocean. Soon, the sun rises and a new day dawns. All of Ash's friends helped Ariel to the surface. Ariel looked around and sees that Ursula is gone for good. But Ash is nowhere to be seen. She finds Eric unconscious near the shore moments before Charizard lands safely next to him. Ash and Pikachu climb off of Charizard's back.)

All of Ash's friends: (cheering and runs up to Ash, Pikachu, and Charizard)

Misty: (laughs and hugs Ash) Way to go, Ash!

Brock: That's our buddy! (laughs while giving Ash a gentle noogie)

Tommy Oliver: You did it!

Kronk: That was awesome!

Zhane: A totally realistic battle I've ever seen!

Korra: You're one brave boy!

Mako: Ash, that battle was unforgettable!

Jack Skellington: You did an excellent job, my boy.

Billy Cranston: Now Ursula is gone for good

Kimberly : And thanks to you, Pikachu, and Charizard, all of her spells are broken

Ash Ketchum: Thanks so much, everyone. But you should also thank Prince Eric over there. I couldn't have defeated that evil sea witch without his help.

King Triton apology to Ash and his friends/Ending
(

Ash Ketchum: Your majesty. Forgive me for deceiving you all this time.

King Triton: No. Forgive me for not understanding that you and your friends never meant any harm to me and my family. I have deeply misjudged you for who you are and it was very disrespectful to say all those hurtful things to you and your friends. Especially after knowing you every time you visit my kingdom and seeing you like a son to me.

Ash Ketchum: Really?

King Triton:

King Triton: She really does love him. Doesn't she, Sebastian?

Sebastian: Hmm... Well, it's like I always say, your majesty. Children got to be free to lead their own lives.

King Triton: You always say that? (Sebastian chuckles and the king sighs) Then I guess there's just one problem left.

Zhane: And what is that, your majesty?

King Triton: How much I'm going to miss her.

Ash Ketchum: (gasps) You mean you're...

King Triton: (nods his head) Yes, Ash, I honestly do mean it.

Kimberly: (sighs) It sure is great to see Ariel and Eric together for real this time.

Ash Ketchum: Yeah. And you know what? I think my friendship with Ariel has improved as a result in our victory. I'm really proud to see that she and her father accepted for who we are and I'm really happy for her marriage with Eric, just like she wanted to.

Brock: Yeah. Now that she's with her newly-wed husband, she can explore the world with him. And who knows what new adventures lie in store for them.

Tommy Oliver: I bet it will be much interesting to find out.

Kronk: It might be filled with romance.

Billy Cranston: Or action.

Misty: Or excitement!

Jack Skellington: Or fun!

Ash Ketchum: Well, who knows guys? I don't know what she'll do or where she'll go, but as long as she's happy with Eric, I'm happy too. Just like her father.

Pikachu: Pi. (hops on Ash's shoulder) Pika.

Charizard: (roar happily)
