[Ariel] "The Glow Crystals."

[Sebastian]
Bubble balloons, check.

Streamers, check.

Tables and chairs, check.

Sebastian, is everything ready
for the Duchess?

Oh, yes, Your Majesty.
I'm putting everything

we're going to do
with the Duchess on this clipboard.

We're going to have
a lovely dinner,

a royal show and tell.

And a magical fun time
with this.

My magical crystal ball.

That's on the clipboard
as well.

[Flounder] Everyone is working so hard
to get ready for the royal visitor.

Well, the Grand Duchess
of Mariana

is a very important guest,
Flounder.

I guess that's why
we're all wearing such fancy outfits.

-Snazzy, right?
-[laughs]

-So snazzy.
-[King T] Ariel.

Can you come up here
for a moment?

Yes, Daddy?

Since today we're having
a royal visitor,

I thought you should wear
something special.

[gasps]

What a beautiful tiara.

-Is that a glow crystal?
-It is.

Just like the kind we found
on the family treasure hunt.

[gasps] Thank you, Daddy.

I love it.
I'm gonna go show my friends.

Very good.

Just be sure to listen
for the royal trumpets.

That will mean
the Duchess is here

and we'll all be going to
greet her as a family.

-Right, Sebastian?
-It's on the clipboard.

Hmm, is everything all right,
Tauntie?

Not sure.

I've been trying to do magic
with my crystal ball,

but it keeps doing
strange things.

Strange things? Like what?

-Huh? [gasps]
-Like that.

It's never done anything
like that before.

Is there anything I can do
to help?

No, no. I'll figure it out.

[Fernie] Hey, Ariel.

-Whoa, is that a new tiara?
-Ooh.

Yes, Daddy's letting me
wear it for the royal visit.

Today's gonna be a lot of fun.

I've never met a Duchess
from Mariana before.

No way I was gonna miss it.

[Ursula] Hmm.

Ursula, do you think you'll be able
to make the crystal ball work

-when the Duchess arrives?
-Oh, the Duchess is expecting to see

some crystal ball magic, mon.

Yes, I... I've almost got it.

There!

[gasps] Whoa, what is this
sparkly place?

This was not on the clipboard!

[♪ trumpets playing]

-[all gasp]
-The trumpets!

That means she's here!

The Grand Duchess of Mariana
is here!

Come on, let's paddle!

-Where's Daddy?
-We thought he was with you.

No, I thought
he'd meet us here.

Something important
must have come up.

He would never miss greeting
such an important guest.

Maybe you guys should go
find him.

[both] Okay.

[gasps]

Welcome, Grand Duchess.
I'm Ariel.

Princess Ariel!

Your father has spoken so much
about you.

Where is that old friend
of mine?

Oh, uh, he must be finishing
getting ready for your visit.

He's very excited
for you to be here.

He sure is,
Your Duchessfulness, ma'am.

-I'm Flounder!
-These are my friends, Fernie and Lucia.

-Hola!
-Bonjour!

Please, come in,
Grand Duchess.

[Duchess] I can't wait
to see your father again.

The palace always looks
so lovely.

Where is Daddy?

It's not like him to miss
something like this.

Yeah, and where's
Miss Ursula ma'am, and Sebastian?

We can't keep
the Duchess waiting.

It's important
our visitors feel happy and welcomed.

So, until the grown-ups
get back,

I'm gonna go make sure
she has a good time.

With some help from
my best fins? [giggles]

-You got it, amiga.
-You can count on us.

Let's get royal!

-Okay, now, what do we do first?
-Ooh!

Hey, check it out!

It's Sebastian's clipboard!

And it has all the things
they have planned!

Fintastic!

But it's so strange he would
just leave it here.

What's it say, Ariel?

Oh, um...

it looks like
the first thing he had planned

-was a royal show-and-tell.
-Great!

What was he planning on
showing and telling?

It doesn't say.

-Hmm. [gasps] Fernie!
-Huh?

You're the best
shower and teller I know.

Could you show and tell
some fish facts for the Duchess?

Sure. We'll just need to find
a fin-teresting sea creature.

I can help you look.

Hmm.

Hmm. Hmm.

-[grunts]
-Don't worry. When Ursula figures out

what's wrong
with her crystal ball,

she'll be able to zap us
back home.

I'm not worried about that,
Your Majesty.

I'm worried about the visit
from the Duchess.

Oh, today is
not going as planned.

I found a catfish.

I found a dogfish. Uh-oh.

-[barking]
-[meowing]

-Ooh, my!
-[catfish meows]

-Oh, no!
-[barking]

-[catfish meows]
-[Duchess] Oh!

Uh, you know, dogfish like
to roll in the sandy mud to stay cool.

I did not know that.

[grunts] And catfish
really like to climb.

-[sighs]
-So I see.

-That didn't go well.
-It's okay.

It was just a mix up.

We just need to make sure
that the next thing on the list

really makes the Duchess
feel happy and welcomed.

This says Sebastian
was planning to serve

a fancy bubble souffle.

Flounder, can you make
one of those?

I've never made one before.

But how hard can it be?

-[all exclaiming]
-[gasps]

I think the bubble souffle
is too bubbly!

[all exclaim]

It's gonna blow!

Yep, too bubbly.

Hmm.

What are we
gonna do now, Ariel?

Okay, that didn't go
as planned.

Uh, Flounder, can you make some
kelp noodles for the Duchess instead?

Oh, yeah!

I've got the noodle machine,

my glow crystal spoon.
I can make some noodles!

Fintastic!

Oh, I sure hope the Duchess
likes noodles.

Oh. [chuckles awkwardly]
Kelp noodles?

We're not having
a bubble souffle?

-There was a change of plans.
-I see.

Oh, no. Did she look sad that
we weren't giving her a bubble souffle?

Couldn't tell but
who doesn't like Flounder's yummy noodles?

[chuckles]

I just really hope nothing
else goes wrong.

Oh, no.

Tauntie Ursula was supposed
to do a magic show

with her crystal ball.

But we don't have
a crystal ball.

Or a Miss Ursula ma'am.

But we do have
a best fin mer-gician.

[giggles] It's magic time.

Ooh, I think I fixed it.
I think I fixed it.

-[Sebastian gasps]
-Huh?

My first magic trick is going
to be the Razzle Dazzle.

Get ready.

Oh, my.

[gasps]

-What's happening?
-That's never happened before.

Uh... [gasps]

-[all gasp]
-[gasps] I'm a seagoat!

[bleating]

That, um, that wasn't supposed
to happen.

[sighs]

Good news!

It took a few tries,

but I was finally able to turn the Duchess
back to her regular self.

Thanks, Lucia.

Hmm.

Why are you still sad, Ariel?

Nothing went right
for the Duchess today.

-[Duchess] I think it went rather well.
-Huh?

And thanks to you,
I had the best royal visit

I've ever attended.

But the dogfish and catfish...

I loved watching them
swim and play.

-[barks]
-And look, they're the best of friends.

But we didn't have souffle.

I know, but those kelp noodles
were the tastiest I've ever had.

And getting turned into
a seagoat... [bleating]

So funny. [laughs]

[chuckles]

Ariel, thank you to you
and your friends

for showing me such
a nice time.

Oh, I wish
I could stay longer,

but I have a long trip home.

Thank you for coming
to visit, Duchess.

-Go, Ariel!
-You did it!

-Let's go, Ariel!
-Yeah!

-Maybe it's this over here.
-What about this spot?

I'm not sure.

Hmm.

I think we've got it.
Come on, crystal ball.

Send us back home
to the palace.

Oh, no, not again.

I say it's time we have some
celebration snacks.

-[all gasp]
-Flounder!

-Uh-oh.
-Uh...

-[Ursula gasps]
-Huh?

Oh. Oh.

Hello, Mr. King Triton, sir.

Whoa.

Whoa. Whoa.

[both] Something fishy
is going on.

[all] Something fishy
is going on.

-Ariel...
-What are we gonna do?

Hmm.


I'm just not sure what to do.

-[Alanna] Ariel!
-[gasps]

Ariel.

Any luck, sisters?

No, we looked all over
the kingdom.

It's like they disappeared.

-Hmm.
-But don't worry, Ariel.

We're gonna check
all the nearby currents

-and parks to see if anyone's seen them.
-Okay.

I don't know
if I can fix this.

You always figure things out.

Yeah, you made sure
the Duchess had a good time.

Thanks, but that
was someone coming to visit.

[sighs]

This is so much bigger.

My daddy wouldn't give up.
He'd keep trying until

he figured out
what's going on.

So that's what I have to do.

[inhales, exhales]
I can do this.

Okay, friends, there must be
something we're missing.

Let's think.

Wait.

I do remember that
when Flounder disappeared,

his crystal spoon
was glowing really bright,

like it was glitching out.

-What do you mean "glitch out"?
-It started to fizz and pop.

Oh, yeah. That's what happened
to my wand

before I turned
the Duchess into a seagoat.

Hmm.

[gasps] The seashell in my tiara
is made out of glow crystal, too.

And it started to glitch
next to Tauntie Ursula's crystal ball.

We need to find out why.

Ooh, I have a new spell book
that Senorita Ursula gave me.

Maybe it says something
about glow crystals or her crystal ball.

Fintastic. Let's paddle.

-So where are we?
-We're not sure.

Tell us, what were you doing
before you got pzapped here?

Well, I just had made snacks,

and I was holding up
my crystal spoon like this.

And now I'm here.

Maybe I should stop using
the crystal ball.

Agreed, sister.

Ooh, what's that super sparkly
thing way over there?

Looks like a passageway.

Let's see where it leads.

Flounder, I'm sorry.
I just have to know,

how did things go with
the duchess?

Fintastic!

She loved being turned into
a seagoat.

[laughs] Yes, the duchess
got turned into a seagoat.

What?

There's nothing in here
about glow crystals

-or the crystal ball.
-What about this?

It looks like some kind of
finding spell.

You're right, Ariel.

So maybe it can help us
find the grownups and Flounder.

-That's a great idea.
-Lucia, can you do the spell?

Yes.

We're gonna need
three ingredients.

Trench sand, rainbow bubbles,
and a glowberry flower.

Fintastic.

Here's where we'll find
the first ingredient, trench sand.

We're gonna have to swim
past the jellyfish

and grab sand from
the very bottom of the trench.

-Come on, let's paddle!
-[Lucia] Yeah!

[Fernie] Whoo-hoo!

We've passed all the jellyfish
and it's getting really dark.

But I have an idea.

Illumina brillante!

-Hooray!
-Yeah!

-Got it!
-Whoo-hoo!

Nice teamwork!

-[laughs]
-[Fernie] Bonjour.

-[Lucia] Hola.
-Our next ingredient, rainbow bubbles.

The last time we swam
in those rainbow bubbles,

we all turned rainbow colored.

Then we got tickled by those parrotfish
who like everything rainbow.

Okay, ready, set, swim!

I'll just scoop up
some bubbles.

Follow me.

-[all chittering]
-[laughs]

They really want to tickle us.

Now, we just need to wash off
the rainbow color.

Oh, magical sea sponges.

Would you give us a fin
and clean the rainbows off of us?

[all laughing]

-Gracias.
-Thank you, sponges.

-Mesi.
-Okay, friends,

now all we need
is the final ingredients.

The last time we were
in this cave,

I saw some glowberry flowers.

But I'm not sure which way
to go now.

There are so many tunnels.

Fernie, do you think you can get
the Seahorse Unicorn to help us out again?

I can give it a try.
[whistles]

[chittering]

Hello, Seahorse Unicorn.

Can you help us find one of
these glowberry flowers?

[chitters]

[chuckles] I guess
that was a yes.

-[all gasp]
-Yeah!

Let's go!

-Here you go. One glowberry flower.
-[gasps]

Gracias.

[chitters]

Okay, that's it.
We have all three ingredients.

Oh, sea biscuits.

Where are we, brother?

Huh, I'm not sure.

Maybe we should
turn back around.

[groaning]

-[all gasp]
-Huh?

No, something tells me
we're in the right place.

Fizzle, find. Fizzle, found.
Fizzle, swish, swush, sway.

Find Flounder
and Ariel's family.

Show us the way!

Huh? Wait.

We're right back
where we started.

I'm sorry, Ariel.

I know I did the spell right.

It's not your fault.

Thanks for trying.

Why did the finding spell
lead us to the wall of crystals?

It doesn't make any sense.

Hmm.

There's a crack.
I've never seen that before.

Ariel?

[sighs]

-[King T] Ariel!
-[gasps] Who said that?

[King T] Ariel!

Ariel!

Daddy?

-Oh, yes. It's me.
-And me!

-Ariel!
-Tauntie's here!

I'm so happy to hear
your voices.

-Are you safe?
-Yes.

We're fine, sweetheart.

We're just a little stuck,
that's all.

Behind some crystal wall.

If anyone can get us
out of here, it's you, Ariel.

-I believe in you.
-Thanks, Daddy.

And one more thing.
Ursula's crystal ball...

-[all gasp]
-It's still...

It's still...
It's still what, Daddy?

I can't hear her anymore.

I can't hear them anymore.

-The crack! It's growing!
-[Fernie] It sure is.

What if Tauntie's
glitchy crystal ball

is what's making the crack
in the wall?

[gasps] Nana Zola's
glow crystal!

It's glitching out just like
our glow crystals did before!

I have an idea.

If we keep adding
more glow crystals to the wall,

we might be able to crack
the wall open

so my family and Flounder
can swim out.

It's worth a try.

-Where should we put them?
-Hmm.

Fernie, put yours there.

[all gasping]

[Fernie]
Ariel, you were right. It's working.

-Lucia, right here.
-You got it, amiga.

[all gasp]

We need more crystals.

Hmm. Oh, Flounder's big
crystal spoon should do the trick.

[gasps]

Whoa!

My family and Flounder
are coming home!

[all cheering]

-Huh?
-Aw.

No! I was so sure
that would work.

There's something missing.

[gasps]

[gasps] Jumping jellyfish.

That's it!

Yes!

Whoo!

We did it! [laughs]

-Whoo-hoo!
-Yay!

[all gasp]

-Ariel did it!
-[laughs] You did it, Ariel!

-Ariel, Fernie, Lucia!
-[gasps]

-[all] Flounder!
-[giggles]

Daddy!

[both laughing]

You make me so proud
to be your father.

And you always make me
so proud to be your daughter.

I love you.

And I love you,
my little mermaid.

Hmm.

And then we walked down
a long walkway that was really sparkly.

Actually, everything
was sparkly.

And then I told Sebastian
all my knock-knock jokes

because he was getting crabby.

-All your knock-knock jokes?
-All of them.

And when I ran out,
I told them all again,

but backwards this time.

I wish you all
could have seen it.

[all laughing]

You know, maybe we can.

-[all exclaiming]
-Whoo-hoo! Yes!

Fintastic!
Ready for a new adventure?

-So ready!
-Totally tails.

-Yeah!
-Come on, best fins.

-Let's paddle.
