04x26 - Return to Merroway Cove

[bunniefuu]

SOFIA: I was a girl
in the village, doing all right

Then I became a princess overnight

Now I gotta figure out
how to do it right

So much to learn and see

Up in the castle with my new family

In a school that's just for royalty

A whole enchanted world
is waiting for me

I'm so excited to be

CHORUS: Sofia the First

SOFIA: I'm finding out
what being royal's all about

CHORUS: Sofia the First

SOFIA: Making my way
it's an adventure every day

CHORUS: Sofia
SOFIA: It's gonna be my time

CHORUS: Sofia

SOFIA: To show them all that I'm

ALL: Sofia the First

[SOFIA READING]

Slip the line through, and...

[GROANS]

Hey, Dad. What are you up to?

Ah! I am going to do a little fishing.

It's supposed to be very relaxing.

Hmm. What about you, Sofia?

-I'm going to meet Oona.
-Well, have fun.

But be back in time
for the Water Show.

It was so nice
of Queen Emmaline to invite us.

I wouldn't miss it. Have fun fishing.

Ha-ha! I will.

If I can just... get started.

Oh! [GROANS]

-That was amazing!
-ALL: Sofia?

Princess Sofia? Hi there!

Hi, Sven! Hi, everybody!

I can't believe
that was only a rehearsal.

And the real show's
gonna be even bigger!

Did you like my fountain, Sofia?

Mother is teaching me
how to use the Current Conch.

It was beautiful, Cora.

I bet you didn't even notice
my tiny little boring waves.

I thought they looked great!

This Mermaid Comb can do all kinds
of amazing things with water,

but I'm barely allowed
to do anything with it.

Oona, I'll teach you in time.

Can't I do something fun for the show?

Like a Water Bridge?

Or maybe a tiny little Sea Twister?

Oh, you're way too young for that.

[SIGHING] I told you I'll teach you
more skills when you're ready.

But Mom, I'm ready now.

Ah. Now, Sofia, if you will excuse me,

Sven, I need you to run
some more errands.

SVEN: Yes, Your Highness.

Don't worry, Oona.

My big fountain
may be the star of the show,

but your little waves are adorable.

Your fountain isn't that big. [HUFFS]

-Oona?
-Don't worry, she'll be okay.

She just needs to cool off a little.

It's not fair!

My mom and Cora treat me
like I'm a little kid!

Well, I have the Mermaid Comb.

I can do a lot more than they think.

[SINGING] My sister
says I am too little

And my mother keeps on explaining

That I have to wait on my training

But I'm old enough
to learn a trick or two

Every fish has school
so I wish they'd teach me

What to do

I'm so much more than what they say

Oh, how they'll see so perfectly

All I can be

When I start to make some waves

Like swimming against a strong current

I must stay on course and be steady

Till I prove to Mom that I'm ready

With a bit of magic
from my Mermaid Comb

I'll whip up a tiny Twister

And show them all when I get home

That I'm so much more
than what they say

Oh, how they'll see so perfectly

All I can be

When I start to make some waves

How I yearn for this tide
to start to turn

Just like the sea
there's so much inside of me

My skills are still unknown

But I have this Mermaid Comb

So if I make a splash right here

I could be Mermaid of the Year

Soon I'll be getting
cheered and praised

I guarantee Cora will see
Mom will agree

When I start to make some waves

I've gotta make some waves

I'm gonna make some waves

Yes! I did it!

Uh, wait. Sea Twister... Stop! Stop!

Not the Seaweed Garden!

[GROANS] Look out
for that school of fish!

Oh, no! I can't let Mom see this!

Wait!

No, no, no. I have to stop it.

[CONCH HORN BLOWING]

Oona's been gone a while.

Oh, she's fine.
She just gets like this sometimes.

Hmm. I'm going to
go check on her, Cora.

See you at the show.

Oona?

Oona!

Oona? Oona!

Are you hiding?

-Boo!
-[GASPS]

Did I getcha? Are ya scared?

You're scared, aren't ya? [LAUGHING]

-[GASPS]
-Hey!

Whatcha doin'?

I think the better question is,

what are you doing?

I wasn't doin' nothin'.

No? You weren't trying
to scare anyone?

Nah. I'm a sweetheart.

Everybody loves me.

I got a charming personality. Ask her.

-Are you all right?
-I'm fine.

He just startled me.

Look, I'm a Scare Acuda.
It's what I do.

What do you want from me?

That's an Enchantlet.
You're a Protector!

I am indeed.

My name's Nerissa, and this is Rhona.

-RHONA: Hello.
-And who might you be, young lady?

-Uh, can I go?
-Hush!

I'm Sofia.

Why did you go in that cave?

Every mermaid knows
not to go in a cave like that.

I'm not really a mermaid.

Wait. Princess Sofia?

As in
Chrysta's-Protector-Trainee Sofia?

That's me. So you know Chrysta?

Know her?

I was in training
at the same time as Chrysta.

We had more fun
than a school of monkey fish.

Ah, I like monkey fish.
They scare easy.

Excuse me.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Scare Acudas agreed to stay

-in the north end of the Cove.
-Yeah, but...

Are you in the north end of the Cove?

-No, but...
-Then where do you need to go?

-North?
-That's right.

You can go now.

But if I see you here again...

I'm goin', I'm goin'.

These mermaids.
Can't scare anyone anymore.

Everyone's so sensitive
all the time...

So what brings you
to Merroway Cove, Sofia?

I'm visiting a friend.
Why are you here?

Are you on a Protector mission?

I am.

To find one of the Wicked Nine

and take it to the Mystic Isles
for safekeeping.

One of the Wicked Nine? Which one?

Ursula's Magic Shell Necklace.

It's been hidden
in the Kelp Forest here for years.

The one she captured Ariel's voice in?

Exactly. So I really
should be on my way.

Goodbye, Sofia.

I'm sure we'll meet again.
Come on, Rhona.

I hope so! Bye!

Oona! There you are.

-Oh! Hi, Sofia!
-Are you okay?

I'm fine. Really.

Have you seen maybe
a tiny little Sea Twister...

kind of swirling by around here?

It's kind of like
an underwater tornado?

But it's no big deal.

[NERVOUS LAUGH] Forget it.

No big deal?

Oona, what happened?

Remember how I said the Mermaid Comb

could make all kinds of things
with water?

-Yeah?
-Well...

I tried a new skill with it.

Oh, no.

I made a little Sea Twister,

and it kind of got away from me?

Oona! Let's tell your mom.
She'll know what to do.

Oh, we don't want to do that.

I know what to do. I'm sure
I can make it disappear.

Maybe you can help me catch it?

[SVEN PANTING]

Sven! What's wrong?

We have a Sea Twister!

It's okay. We know about that.

What! Did it come by here already?

No. We know because... I made it.

Oona, how could you do such a thing?

Sven, that's not important right now.

What's important is that we stop it.

Well, we have to tell the Queen!
She'll know what to do.

No! We don't need Mom!

We can stop the Twister ourselves.

I hope by "we" you mean you,

because I do not know
how to stop a Sea Twister.

Maybe he's right, Oona.
What if it's too big for you?

That's why I'm asking
for you to help me.

And if it's too big for us,
then I'll tell my mom. Okay?

Okay. So, how do we find it?

The Twister was last seen
moving toward the Kelp Forest.

[GASPS] Nerissa was heading
to the Kelp Forest.

Come on!

[GASPS] Look at the Kelp Forest!

The Twister's already
been through here.

CRAB: Excuse me! Mermaids!

Down here! Would you mind?
Can I get a little help?

Here you go, little guy.

Thank you!

Oh. There sure is a lot of damage.

SVEN: And the longer
we wait to get your mom,

the more damage it's going to...

OCTOPUS: Look out below!

Look out!

[OCTOPUS PANTING]

Sorry. Sorry, everyone. Are you okay?

Are you okay?

I got caught up in a Sea Twister.
Can you believe it?

Was it ginormous?

I didn't see it all that well.

I was swimming along,
and then everything was swoosh,

ker-blam, splat! What!

Crash! Snap! Is that an anchor?
Yes, it is! Kapowee!

And here I am.

Here you go. That should do it.

Thank you so much.

Ah!

I would have been in real trouble,
but out of nowhere

this super-strong mermaid
came and saved me.

-Nerissa!
-Didn't catch her name,

but she pulled me
away from the Twister.

-Whoa!
-"Whoa" is right!

She got me out of danger,

but then she got caught
in the Twister.

I tried to grab her,
but I only got this bracelet thingy.

[GASPS] That's her Enchantlet!

Where did you last see her?

At the shipwreck.

What shipwreck?

Not your shipwreck?

Uh, no. Mine is on
the other side of the forest.

[GASPS] He must mean
the Stormy Shipwreck!

That's right! It's back thataway!

Come on! We have to try
and help Nerissa!

Maybe this is a good time
to tell your mother?

SVEN: Hello? Wait up!

SOFIA: Look! Over there!

Sofia! You are a sight for sore eyes.

Are you all right?

Yes, yes. I'm just stuck here.

What can we do?

This mast is very heavy.

I don't think
your Enchantlet can lift it.

Maybe if I Bond our Enchantlets
together, they'd be strong enough?

Great thinking, Sofia,
but unfortunately I lost my...

Enchantlet!

This friendly octopus found it.

I'm Octavio! Remember me?

Yes, I do.

Octavio, thank you.

You'll need this.

Do you know how to do the Bond?

I think so. Chrysta taught me.

Ready, Nerissa?

-Ready.
-All right.

One, two, three!

SVEN: Wow!

-[MAST CREAKING]
-[SOFIA GRUNTING]

-Oh!
-Wow!

Ah! Handled like
a true Protector, Sofia.

-SVEN: Who knew?
-SOFIA: Thanks.

Did you find Ursula's necklace?

I did. It was in a chest
buried under that shipwreck.

Unfortunately, the Sea Twister
took the chest with it!

Then we have to catch up
to that Twister.

And get that necklace back.

Can I lend a tentacle? I got eight!

Thanks for all your help, Octavio,
you've been so brave.

But I think you'd better go home now.

Ah, I guess you're right.

If my mom hears about this,
she'll be like,

"Octavio? A Twister? What?

"Wipe your tentacles!
Eat your seaweed! Go to bed!"

Bye, you guys.

SOFIA: Bye, Octavio. Thank you!

I'm going too.
I've gotta make this right.

Oona, wait!

Oona!

SVEN: Oona! Get away from that thing!

I'm okay, Sven! I'm not too close!

Look! Here's the chest!

SVEN: Why isn't it
spinning like crazy?

It must be in the eye of the Twister.

It's a place in
the center of the Twister

where the water is calmer.

So, how do we get
the chest out of there?

I'll take care of it!

Sea Twister!

I command you to go!

No! Not "grow." I said, "Go!"

Go! Go! Go!

[GRUNTING]

[OONA SCREAMS]

-[SVEN YELLING]
-[SOFIA GRUNTING]

Whoa! Whoa!

-Sofia!
-Sven!

Can't swim out!

-Must swim in!
-SVEN: In?

Look! There's the chest!

Good. We have Ursula's necklace.

Okay, great.
But how do we get out of here?

What are we gonna do?

I have an idea.

I just hope Sofia
figures out what I'm doing.

What are you doing?

What is that?

The Bond! Of course!

Hold on tight, Sven.

Gotcha!

Look! The Twister
is moving toward the Palace!

Oh, no. Everyone is gathering there
to get ready for the Water Show!

Oona, you know what you have to do.

Oh. I tried to make it right,

but that turned out awful.

And I don't know
how to fix it. [SIGHS]

Ugh. I have to go get my mom.

I should have done it sooner.

Sofia and I will try
to slow the Twister down.

Swim like an arrow fish, Oona.

Find the Queen!

Now, let's see what we can do.

Cora! I'm looking for Mom.

Oh. She's not here.

She's helping set up the show.

-Why?
-Because I need her.

Uh-oh. What did you do?

Nothing. This is between me and Mom.

Is she in the Cove?

Oona, tell me what's going on.

I... I can't.

There's a Sea Twister!

-Sven!
-A Sea Twister?

That's why we need Mom.

It's coming straight for the Palace.

Where did a Sea Twister come from?

I... kind of... made it?

You what?

I was trying to rehearse a new skill
for the show tonight.

No, you were trying to do something
you shouldn't have.

[SIGHS] I know.

And if I could take it back, I would.

I just wanted to do something
amazing for the show. Like you.

You know,

maybe we don't need Mom.

What?

I know how to use the Trident.

-Mostly.
-Mostly?

At least I've seen Mom use it,

and this way we wouldn't have to
tell her what you did, would we?

No. We wouldn't.

Oona, this is a bad idea!

She's doing the same thing
with the Trident

that you did with the Comb!

Sven always worries.

It's true, I do.

But this is still a bad idea,

and I'm not going to be a part of it!

Cora, can you really
handle the Trident?

Of course I can.

With... [GRUNTING]

...a little help.

Oh! We have to hurry!

SOFIA: Nerissa,
let's pull those big rocks down

and block the Twister!

Oh, no! Now it's headed
straight for the Palace!

[BOTH GASP]

Hold it up!

I'm doing the best I can!

Queen Emmaline!

Phew! I'm glad to see you again,
Queen Emmaline.

Oh, and I'm glad to see you
in one piece.

You got here just in time.

Thanks for getting your mom so fast.

Oh. She didn't get me. Sven did.

Yeah, I did.

If you'll excuse me, Your Highness,

I must take this
to the Mystic Isles right away.

Go. With our gratitude.

Sofia, I wouldn't have
Ursula's necklace

if it weren't for you.

You're going to make
a wonderful Protector.

Until next time.
Come on, Rhona, let's go.

Bye, Nerissa!

Why didn't you come get me right away?

I thought I could control the Trident.

Oh, Cora.

You must never touch the Trident
without my permission.

Is that understood?

Yes. I'm sorry, Mother.

Mom, it wasn't Cora. It was me.

What do you mean?

I made the Sea Twister.

What? Why would you do that?

I wanted to do a special skill
for the show tonight.

Something just as amazing as Cora's.

You said you'd teach me
when I was older,

but I wanted to try it now.

I'm sorry. Please don't blame Cora.

You should have known better...
both of you.

I'm afraid you're both
confined to the Palace.

[GASPS] Does this mean
we can't be in the show tonight?

Well, since you told the truth
and owned up to your mistakes,

I suppose you could
start being confined to the Palace...

tomorrow.

-Really?
-Yes!

As long as you make sure
this never happens again.

We promise.

-Thank you, Mom.
-Thank you, Mom!

Good. Oh! Now it's almost
time for the show.

We don't want to keep
our guests waiting.

Do we, Sofia?

That's right.

Oh, wait. I'm one of your guests.

KING ROLAND II: Uh, hmm.

-Where's Sofia?
-Right here, Dad.

How was your fishing?
Did you catch anything?

Ha-ha! Yes! A nice, long nap.

[FANFARE PLAYS]

Oh, the show is about to start.

I'm glad you didn't miss
the excitement.

We wouldn't want that.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

KING ROLAND II: Beautiful!
