00:00Oh
01:30Well, what do you think?
01:39You look really, uh, human.
01:41Yeah.
01:42Aw, thanks, Flounder.
01:43Want to ride in my Twillamabob?
01:48Yeah.
01:49Ariel, you'd better be studying for your test in crab philosophy.
01:57Hmm.
01:58Perhaps crab philosophy is funnier than I thought.
02:01Whee!
02:04I don't think so.
02:10Oh, Flounder.
02:22Wouldn't it be wonderful to live up there?
02:25We could spend all day exploring, looking for thingamabobbers and whatchamacallits.
02:31You're wasting your time with such foolishness.
02:33Sebastian!
02:34Here under the sea, we are much better off than those poor fools up there.
02:38Why, even as we speak, a big storm is hitting the surface.
02:42A storm?
02:42Well, I gotta get up there right away.
02:44Huh?
02:45Well, during a storm is the best time to find whatchamacallits and thingamabobs and all kinds
02:50of wonderful human things.
02:51Me and my big crustacean moat.
02:54Ariel, you come back here.
02:55Oh, come on.
03:03Ariel, let's get out of here.
03:05There's something out there.
03:12Ariel!
03:14It's just out of reach.
03:16Ariel!
03:20Gotcha.
03:25Ariel, you all right?
03:45Flounder, you shouldn't be out of the water.
03:47Me?
03:48What about you?
03:49Where's Sebastian?
03:50Aye, aye, aye.
03:53I'm sorry, Sebastian.
03:54Oh, my hitting shelf.
03:57Get a description of that wave and call the police.
04:00Look, the whatchamacallit.
04:08Why, it's not a whatchamacallit.
04:11It's a whirlwind shaker.
04:14Ariel, that's a human girl doing some kind of human dance.
04:19Yeah.
04:20Isn't she beautiful?
04:21Lying in bed with a hot water bottle on my bottom would be beautiful.
04:26Someday I'm gonna dance.
04:27Just like this human girl.
04:29Ariel, how could you possibly learn to do that?
04:32No, Ariel, I'm not going to look in the human house.
04:53And that's final.
04:53Oh, just one little peek, Sebastian.
04:57For me?
04:58No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
04:59And a thousand more times, no.
05:01Oh, you win.
05:03I'll just have to find some other crab to help me.
05:05Well, good.
05:06I...
05:06Some other crab?
05:08The idea?
05:08I ain't the only crab gonna help you, Ariel.
05:12Gee, thanks, Sebastian.
05:14Well, you're welcome.
05:15I...
05:15What?
05:16Hey!
05:17I'm gonna...
05:18Talk myself into anything.
05:20Someday I'm gonna talk myself into not doing something for that girl.
05:24I promise myself.
05:28Oh, Flounder, he's almost there.
05:30What did I do for that girl?
05:32At least there's no humans around.
05:41We'll have to board it up till the new glass comes.
05:50Yay, yay, yay.
06:01Oh, no.
06:02A giant pussycat.
06:04Where am I?
06:34Oh, at least I'm a safe distance from that monster cut.
07:04A human girl, just like the one on my whirlwind shaker.
07:12I'll flounder.
07:13I want to dance, just like her.
07:16But her dance is done with two tails.
07:19Tails that spin and bend like mine could never do.
07:23Ah, Ariel, don't be sad.
07:25I hope you are happy, Ariel.
07:28I nearly got crushed by that human.
07:31Ariel, what's wrong?
07:35I don't have two tails.
07:38Oh, is that all?
07:42Two tails?
07:43Ariel!
07:44Maybe now you'll stay home, under the sea where you belong.
07:58There's nothing up there for you, but things you can never have.
08:01Oh, Sebastian, who says that my dreams have to stay just my dreams.
08:08Oh, to dance would be grander than grand.
08:11Would those what's-it-called slippers fit on my flipper?
08:14Could I twirl like they twirl up on land?
08:17I dance night and day to what they say is ballet.
08:20You know, who is it that's not too, too tight?
08:22I wish, I hope, I might find something inside
08:28To show me how I can start
08:32Living the songs, the songs I sing in my heart
08:37Dreaming my dream, dancing my dance
08:43I've gotta try without wondering why
08:46I must take a chance
08:49Something inside
08:52Is tearing to death
08:54Hello
08:57Don't stop singing. It looks beautiful.
09:02Thank you. Um, I'm Ariel.
09:05My name's Gabriella. I'm deaf. I speak sign language.
09:09This is Ollie.
09:20That's me. I'm Gabriella's interpreter.
09:24And her friend.
09:26I'm Flounder.
09:27And I'm the great Sebastian.
09:29Perhaps you've heard of me?
09:34What's this?
09:35Uh, it's a human thing. From up there.
09:39I want to dance like her.
09:40But I don't have two tails.
09:42You probably think I'm foolish.
09:44Like Sebastian and Flounder do.
09:46Why of course she does, Ariel.
09:48I think it's a wonderful dream.
09:50You do?
09:51You do?
09:52You do?
09:54Oh, yes. Dancing is freedom.
09:57And Gabriella knows where you can get two tails.
09:59If you don't mind swimming through a canyon of giant killer crabs.
10:02Of course we don't mind.
10:04I think that we include you and me, man.
10:07There's a legend that says,
10:09if you wish upon a starfish,
10:10your dream will come true.
10:12What?
10:13All this time all I had to do was wish on a starfish
10:15and I could have had anything I wanted?
10:20Get over here.
10:22Ah!
10:22I wish I could be a big fish.
10:24A big fish!
10:26A really big fish!
10:28No, no.
10:29Not just any starfish, Flounder.
10:32You must wish upon the magical giant starfish
10:35of Starfish Grotto at sunset
10:37when the ocean is all aglow.
10:41But to get there,
10:42you have to swim through fearful forest
10:44to the Cave of Terrors.
10:46Then, get past Killer Crab Canyon.
10:49Oh, is that all?
10:52We're on our way there right now.
10:54I'm so happy for you.
10:56I have a wish too, Ariel.
10:58I want to sink just like you.
11:00I hope you get your wish, Gabriella.
11:03Come on, let's go.
11:04I have a wish.
11:05I wish we weren't going on this scary trip.
11:14And once, Ariel hit a killer whale in her room.
11:18There was whale everywhere, man.
11:20That's nothing.
11:21Once Gabriella had to see the bottom of a bottomless pit.
11:24Oh, yeah?
11:25Well, once something went...
11:27And Ariel had to know if it looked as scary as it sounded.
11:35So, this is sign language for turtle.
11:39And this is fish.
11:40And this...
11:42This is crab.
11:44I like that one best.
11:46There it is.
11:49Fearful forest.
11:50I'm not afraid.
11:52Are you?
11:52No, it's exciting.
11:54Don't tell me we're going in there.
12:08We're going in there.
12:10I asked you not to tell me that.
12:12I mean, I asked her not to tell me that.
12:14It's okay.
12:25It's just a giant eel.
12:27Everything is giant around here.
12:29Good.
12:30Call me a giant doctor.
12:39It's the Cave of Terrors.
12:41But I'm sure they just call it that.
12:43It's to scare visitors away.
12:44Uh, Sebastian?
12:45Uh, Sebastian?
12:47Ah!
12:48Help!
12:49It's got me!
12:53Sebastian, if you're afraid, you and Flounder can stay behind.
12:57Fine.
12:57I will.
12:58Not me.
12:59I'm going with you.
13:00I'm going with you.
13:01I'm going with you.
13:19Oh, my God.
13:49Oh, my God.
14:19Soon we'll get our wishes.
14:20I'll be able to dance, and soon you'll be able to sing, Gabriela.
14:23And soon these mermaids are going to drive the three of us off the deep end of the ocean.
14:29Ariel, this is more foolish than a crab wearing polka dot underwear.
14:36Flounder, get out of there.
14:37Gabriela, we can't hear you, Ariel.
14:53Gabriela, behind you!
14:54Let me go!
15:18Get me out of here!
15:19Let me go!
15:24Sebastian, do something!
15:30Don't I know you?
15:33Yeah, man, I think we are related.
15:37Why, sure!
15:39Ever been to Jamaica?
15:40My parents are Claude and Claudia a crab.
15:42I was born just off the coast of Jamaica.
15:44Yeah, some island that is, but maybe you're related to my Uncle Hermie.
15:49He's a hermit crab, but very, very big for his age.
15:52Come on, girl, let's make waves.
15:54Come on, girl, let's make waves.
16:24This is it?
16:32Time to make our wishes.
16:35I want some wishes, too, bud!
16:38Me, too!
16:39Why not?
16:42I'm going to be a big fish.
16:43I want big muscles.
16:45And I'd like to be named Crab of the Year, ten years in a row.
16:49Welcome, dreamers.
16:56I am the magical wishing starfish.
17:01You have braved many dangers to find me.
17:04You don't know the half of it!
17:06First we have to...
17:07When you follow your dream, you must overcome many obstacles.
17:13Yes, giant obstacles!
17:15First I will grant the wishes of the mermaids.
17:20I wish with all my heart that I could sing.
17:30I wish for two tails, so I can dance.
17:33First I will grant the wish of the mermaids.
17:48No.
17:50No.
17:51No.
18:12Nothing happened.
18:14Oh, I'm sorry.
18:16I'm gonna do magic, but when I get the chance, I just don't shine.
18:21Then everybody gets mad at me.
18:24Are you gonna get mad at me?
18:27You better believe it, Martin!
18:29Come on, come on, put up your points!
18:33I don't wanna cry, but I'm so sad.
18:37I wanted to sing to express my feelings.
18:40Happiness, sadness, love.
18:43You express yourself beautifully, Gabriella, with sign language.
18:49Thank you, Ariel.
18:52I do everything with my hands.
18:54Well, I even dance.
18:57Hey, we don't need magic.
18:59We'll make our own wishes come true.
19:04Listen closely, you'll hear music dance in your ears.
19:07Look, a song you can see with your eyes.
19:10We're all in the sea with our own way to be.
19:13But we'll never know till we try.
19:16Cause it's more than the voice that's singing the song.
19:19It's more than the tale that can dance.
19:22That'll make our dreams come true.
19:25It's something inside that tells you how you can start.
19:32Living the songs, the songs you sing in your heart.
19:37Dreaming your dream, dancing your dance.
19:43Gotta try without wondering why we must take a chance.
19:48Something inside is daring to try.
19:55Daring to sing.
19:58Daring to dance.
20:03Daring to sing.
20:18Daring to dance.
