[Ariel] The Endless Sleepover.

This is so exciting, Ariel.

I can't believe
we get to have a sleepover

at your Tauntie Ursula's.

I'm excited, too.

But what do you do at a sleepover?

Do we eat?

Play, dance, eat?

[giggles] We do that
and whatever else we want to do.

We have the whole night
to have fun.

I want to squeal.

Everybody, squeal with me.

[all squealing]

[laughing]

[Ariel] Tauntie Ursula.

Okay, sister, I know you're here.

Go ahead. Do whatever big,

magical entrance you have planned.

[Ursula] All right.

[laughs]

Oh, you make it too easy, big brother.

[children laughing]

Are you merlings ready
for a big night of Ursula fun?

Oh, yeah.

I have the whole night planned for us.

We'll have snacks,

games, play pretend.

Ooh! Show them how
we used to play pretend

when we were kids, brother.

[gasps]

[giggling]

[laughs] Okay. Okay.

Yes, yes. Y'all are gonna have
lots of fun tonight,

but I want everyone in bed
when it's bedtime.

Little fish and little mermaids
need their sleep.

Now when the big tentacle
is pointing at this seashell,

that means it's time to go to bed.

I can promise you, Triton,

when it is bedtime,

these little ones will be snug
in their kelp sleeping bags.

[laughs] Okay. All right, then.

Good night, everyone.

Good night, brother.

[laughs]

[giggling]

Well, children,

the clock says it isn't bedtime yet,

so I'll go poof up some snacks

and your job is to have some fun.

[all cheering]

Yeah, I love shadow puppets.

And then Goldifish said,

"This cupcake is too hard,

"and this cupcake is too cold."

Guess the drawing.

-It's a starfish.
-No.

-A seahorse.
-No.

King Triton wearing a funny hat.

Plantains.

Kelp curry.

Some kind of delicious snack.

Play pretend.

[growling]

I'm a shark.

-Chomp, chomp.
-[gasps]

[growls and laughs]

-Pinch, pinch.
-[gasps]

I'm a crab.

-Pinch, pinch.
-[all giggle]

[all chattering excitedly]

[Fernie] She's never gonna
catch all of us!

Snack time!

[all cheering and whooping]

Freeze dance.

When the music stops,

so do we.

[♪ upbeat music playing]

[music stops]

[teeth chattering]

How long until we start dancing?

[music starts]

[all whooping]

Best sleepover ever.

-Yeah.
-[Ursula] Okay, merlings,

I'm glad you had fun,

but it's time to start
getting ready for bed.

[all sigh]

[Ursula] Here are your tooth sponges.

Tauntie Ursula,

we were having so much fun.

Yeah, I just learned

how to dance the Wiggle Giggle.

[beatboxing]

We don't want it to end, Miss Ursula,

Ma'am, your magicalness.

Oh, please, Tauntie,

not yet.

I'm sorry, children.

But as you can see, the big tentacle

is getting close to the seashell,

which means it's almost bedtime.

[sighs]

I wish bedtime would never ever come.

[chuckles] Well, the only way
to stop bedtime from coming

would be to stop time.

[gasps] Jumping jellyfish.

That's it.

Tauntie Ursula,

you know so much magic.

Couldn't you stop time?

Well, of course I could stop time,

I'm Ursula.

But I have to say,

a never-ending sleepover

might not be as fun as you think, Ariel.

How could a never-ending
sleepover not be fun?

We were having a blast.

Right, everyone?

-So much fun.
-We sure were.

Please, please, please, Tauntie.

Very well.

If you think it's a good idea.

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[all gasp]

Freeze them up, it's what a thrill.

[gasps]

Now all the clocks will all stand still.

[clock dings]

Ah, ah...

[gasps]

Did she do it?

Did she stop time?

Of course she did it.

Senorita Ursula stopped time.

That's right.

And if the clocks aren't ticking...

It'll never be bedtime!

And if there's no bedtime,

that means...

[♪ upbeat music playing]

[Lucia] Pinch, pinch.

[laughs] See, everyone,

no bedtime was a great idea.

-Uh-huh.
-Whoo-hoo!

-[all cheering]
-We party.

[low energy]
And then Goldifish said,

this kelp cake is...

-Too hot.
-Too hot.

[Fernie] And this kelp cake is...

-Too cold.
-Too cold.

And a few more things happen,
Goldifish falls asleep,

the three sharks come home,
the end.

Huh.

That story just isn't as interesting

after I've told it seven times.

[yawns]

You know, this was really fun,

but I think I might be
ready to go to bed.

Oh! But, Flounder,
it's not bedtime yet.

Look at the clock.

Yeah, I know,

but I think I'm ready.

[yawns]

[snores]

Okay, Flounder
might've gone to bed,

but that doesn't mean
the sleepover has to stop.

Right, everybody?

[yawns]

Sure. Okay.

[yawns] Yeah, let's keep playing.

-[both] Starfish.
-All right.

[both] Plantains.

Yep.

[both] King Triton
wearing a funny hat.

Wow. You two are getting
really good at this game.

[yawns]

Oh, no. Not you too, Fernie.

Don't say it!

I think I'm ready for bed.

Oh!

[sighs] He said it.

[yawns]

Good night, everybody.

[snores]

Well, just the two of us now.

But that doesn't mean
we can't have fun.

Right, Lucia?

-[reluctantly] Right.
-[laughs]

You're never gonna pinch me, Lucia.

[laughs]

Lucia?

[snoring]

-Lucia.
-Ahhh! What?

[yawns] What happened?

Lucia.

I said "You're never gonna pinch me."

[yawns] Why would I pinch you?

'Cause you're a crab.

[yawns] Oh, right.

Pinch...

Pinch.

Oh, no.

Not you too, Lucia.

[Lucia speaking Spanish]

This was fun.

[snores]

[sighs]

Well, it's still not bedtime.

I'm gonna keep
this sleepover going,

even if I have to do it by myself.

[yawns] All right.

Dance party.

[yawns]

Nope. No sleepies.

Keep the sleepover going.

Hi, Tauntie,

it's not bedtime yet.

Sleepover's still going.

-[all snoring]
-So, I see.

Quite a party in here.

[growls] I'm a shark.

[yawns]

Oh, Tauntie,

I don't know how to say this but I...

A never-ending sleepover
might not be as fun

as you thought.

Okay, that's a really
good way of saying it.

The sleepover
was so much fun at first,

but it got less and less fun,

and then everybody went to sleep.

[snoring]

Did I do something wrong?

Of course you didn't do
anything wrong, sweet child.

You just learned an important lesson.

[yawns] Yeah.

[yawns]

What's that?

That it's okay for fun things
to come to an end

because everyone needs their sleep.

Especially little mermaids.

So I guess my dad was right.

Sure.

But we don't have to make
too big a deal about that.

[laughs]

Okay.

[yawns]

Well, Tauntie Ursula...

I think I'm ready for bedtime.

Me too.

Nighty night is zip zap zo.

Wow!

Start the clocks up,

go, go, go!

[blows raspberry]

Let's see.

Time is moving.

-[clock ticking]
-The clock is ticking,

and...

[clock dings]

Now it is bedtime.

Thanks so much
for such a fun night, Tauntie.

It's what we Taunties do best.

Can I get you anything
before you go to sleep, Ariel?

Ariel?

[all snoring]

[laughs]

[♪ upbeat music playing]

[King T]
Daddy-daughter Dinner.

Hurry, Flounder,

Lucia and Fernie are waiting for us.

I'm hurrying.

[gasps]

[sniffs]

Mmm. That smells incredible.

[sniffs] Paprika.

[sniffs] Pepper.

[sniffs] And a hint of seagrass.

Wait.

Could it be?

Your favorite noodles in the entire sea.

-Oodles of kelp noodles.
-Oodles of kelp noodles.

[both chuckle]

Oh, it's daddy-daughter dinner night.

Yep. And tonight is my turn.

Which means Ariel gets to have
her favorite meal for dinner.

Made by yours truly...

-[in French accent] Chef Triton.
-[giggles]

We also get to spend
daddy-daughter time together,

which I love.

[chuckles] That's right.

Just me and my Ariel.

And Flounder, of course.

-[giggles]
-And I have to say,

this land treasure you gave me

is really coming in handy
stirring the noodles.

Now, what did
you call this one?

A wiffle waff.

[King T] A wiffle waff!

[giggles]

Okay, Dad,

we're gonna go play
with Lucia and Fernie

until dinner's ready.

All right, but don't go too far.

You wouldn't want to miss

-daddy-daughter dinner night.
-Daddy-daughter dinner night. [giggles]

Dad, I wouldn't miss it
for the entire sea.

Oodles of kelp noodles.

Uh, Flounder.

Oh, sorry.

See you Mr. King Triton, sir.

Those kelp noodles
your dad is making

sure looks tasty.

-And they'll taste tasty, too.
-Mmm!

He spends all day working on them.

Ooh, I can't wait for my

Mr. King Triton-
Flounder dinner night.

Your dad is making
my favorite, sand crumb cakes.

Yum.

-[Fernie] Ariel.
-[Lucia] Ariel.

-[Fernie] Ariel.
-[Lucia] Ariel.

There's like a...
[panting] Near the...

Whoa, whoa. Lucia, Fernie,
hold your sea horses.

-What's up?
-A shipwreck is what's up.

Well, actually, it's down.

Way down.

An old shipwreck

filled with land treasures.

[gasps] Really? Where?

Not too far.
It's over at the Soca Sands.

Past the sea cliffs,

and then among the shark reef,

-and down the...
-Okay.

It's actually kinda far.

We should go, right?

We have to go.
There's a shipwreck,

and human stuff.

Wait, Ariel.

We may not have time
to explore the shipwreck

and get back in time for dinner.

I don't want to miss dinner.

Well, we could just go look
at the shipwreck real quick.

Yeah.

We can see the shipwreck

and then swim back for dinner.

We'll just take a teensy
weeny little quick peek.

What do you say, Flounder?

[sighs]

[all whooping]

Whoo-hoo!

Yay.

-Whoo-hoo!
-[all laughing]

Captain Flounder,

steer us clear of the waves.

Aye, aye, matey.

I'm the king of the sea.

Speaking of king of the sea,

your dad's probably
almost finished making dinner.

[gasps]

You're right, Flounder.

I can't miss daddy-daughter dinner.

Lucia, Fernie, we have to head back.

Okay, we can head home.

This was so clamazing.

[Fernie] A fintastic day of play.

[water gurgles]

Wait a minute.

Is that?

[gasps]

There's a hole in the ship.

We can get inside.

-[sighs]
-Wait, I know.

We're leaving.

But the human stuff.

It can totally wait

because my dad
made my favorite meal

for daddy-daughter dinner.

Yes.

Oodles of kelp noodles.

Exactly.

I'm swimming along.

But you're not moving.

Huh?

Oh, right.

Um, let's go.

[water gurgling]

Jumping jellyfish.

That's it.

What if Lucia and Fernie
take a peek for me?

Huh?

Ariel.

I'm not gonna look.

They are.

Just a little peek.

Sure. We'll do it.

[sighs]

-[Fernie and Lucia] Ooh!
-[Ariel gasps]

Ooh. What's inside?

What's inside?

-[Lucia] Human stuff.
-[Fernie] Everywhere.

[gasps] Flounder, please.

Let's go.

[sighs]

Whoa!

[Lucia] Ooh.

Look at this, uh, loopy floopy.

[gasps] Let me see.

Perfect.

Now my bag has a bag.

Oh, I know what that is.

It's something humans wear.

Ah.

-[both gasp]
-This is great.

It keeps my neck warm. Ooh.

And another wiffle waff.

You know who else
likes wiffle waffs?

Your dad.

King of the sea
and maker of dinners.

Oh, the dinner.

I got carried away again.

And now we should really get going.

Agreed.

Now that we've got
our peek of the ship,

we can head back to the palace.

Lucia, Fernie.

-Oh, yes.
-Ready to go.

Goodbye, shipwreck
of land treasures.

[gasps]

What's that?

A treasure chest.

[gasps] I bet that thing
is full of human stuff.

I've got to find out
what cool things are inside.

-[grunts]
-[chest creaking]

[straining]

Almost.

Got it.

[thudding]

[both gasp]

Ariel, are you okay?

[Ariel groans]

Yes, I'm fine.

I'm just stuck inside now.

We'll figure out a way
to get you unstuck.

I know you will.

Thanks, friends.

[grunts]

[groaning]

[Ariel gasps]

[groans]

Now I won't get home
in time for dinner.

My dad's gonna be so disappointed
that I missed it, and...

And it's all my fault.

Looks like I really messed up.

Chasing what shimmers.

I went too far.

Now I'm stuck.

Come on, Ariel.
Let's get you home.

[♪ exciting music playing]

Mmm.

[Flounder] He looks sad.

I don't like seeing people sad.

[gasps]

[Ariel] Hi, Daddy.

I brought you another whiffle waff.

Your favorite.

Thanks, Ariel.

I'm so, so sorry
I missed dinner, Daddy.

There was the shipwreck,

and then something
happened and, well...

Well...

That doesn't matter.

I know you worked really hard

to make me my favorite meal for dinner.

I should have been here.

I'm really sorry for making you sad.

Oh, Ariel,

although I am disappointed,

I accept your apology.

Thanks, Daddy.

You know, I love that you
collect treasures in the sea.

I know how important that is to you,

but I hope you understand
that time with your family

is also important.

I do understand.

Now.

Do you, really?

Yes, I do.

Besides,

I already have the greatest treasure

in the whole ocean.

And what is that?

You, Daddy.

You're the best treasure I'll ever have.

Oh. Thanks, Ariel.

[gasps] I almost forgot.

We can't end
daddy-daughter dinner night

until everyone's had
oodles of kelp noodles.

You saved me a plate?

Of course I saved you a plate.

And I saved you a plate too, Flounder.

Yes!

And I'd like to say
you're both the best treasures

-I've ever had.
-Mmm-hmm.

[laughs]

Now,

tell me about this shipwreck.

Well, it was not too far.

It was over at the Soca Sands.

Past the sea cliffs,

but then around
the shark reef and down there.

Okay. Well, it was
actually kind of far.

But, anyway,

it was filled with land treasures,

and I found this...
