Editing Ash's Adventures of The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning/Transcript (section)

== At Atlantica/Ash and his friends finally at under the sea ==
(Then under the sea)
* '''Sebastian:''' (Narrating) Meanwhile... Atlantica looked the same.

(We go to the palace)
* '''Sebastian:''' (Narrating) But I can't say that about... everything.

(In the princesses' room, Ariel, and her sisters are now grown up. Then suddenly, their governess named Marina Del Rey and her assistant Benjamin came in)
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' Uppy-uppy, my darlings.
* '''Benjamin:''' It's us.

(The princesses groan)
* '''Princess Ariel:''' [Groans] Governess!

(Then Marina takes the pillow from under Aquata)
* '''Princess Aquata: '''Hey!
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' Rise and shine.
* '''Princess Aquata: '''Why so early?
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''Mustn't be late.
* '''Princess Arista: '''But it's still dark out.
* '''Princess Aquata: '''Uh...
* '''Princess Arista: '''[Sees now]''' '''Oh. Hi.
* '''Benjamin: '''Wakey-wakey.
* '''Princess Adella: '''Oh, I was dreaming about a boy.
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''Yes. Come on, girls.
* '''Princess Alana:''' But I need my beauty sleep.
* '''Princess Andrina: '''Tell me about it.
* '''Princess Alana: '''It's easy for you. No one cares what you look like, but I didn't even finish.
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' Move it.
* '''Benjamin: '''I think you're lovely.
* '''Princess Andrina: '''Can't we meet Father later?
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' Unfortanily, I don't get to make those kinds of decisions. [laughs] Any decisions, really. [Sees the girls go back to sleep again] Get up!

[The girls rushed up and go to the mirrors]
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' All right, all right, all right. Move your tails. This is our special time with your father.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''Special? It's the same every morning.
* '''Princess Andrina: '''Ah, she's got a point.
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''That's what your father cares about. Predictability, presentation, punctuality.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''That's all Dad cares about.
* '''Princess Andrina: '''She's got a point.
* '''Princess Aquata: '''You've got your own mirror!
* '''Benjamin: '''Two minutes.
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''Stop primping!

(They get ready as they talk, as Attina goes to Ariel)
* '''Princess Attina: '''Come on, Ariel.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''Why can't he let us do something different? Just once.
* '''Princess Attina: '''Give him a break. He's the king, remember? You try running a kingdom.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''I wouldn't run it like this.
* '''Princess Attina: '''Don't upset him, Ariel.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''Just because you're the oldest, Attina, doesn't mean you can boss us around.
* '''Princess Attina:''' Yes, it does.
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' Benjamin, if we're late again, I'll never get a promotion.
* '''Benjamin:''' Marina... - [Attina]
* '''Princess Attina: '''''[VO]''''' '''Come on, girls.
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' Not that I want a promotion. No, no, no, I love this job. Looking after you is what I live for. Really.

(The girls leave)
* '''Marina Del Rey:''' I hate this job!
* '''Benjamin: '''The less said the better.

(At the throne room, Sebastian arrives, and his chariot is going crazy)
* '''Sebastian:''' [panting] Whoa! Whoa! - Good morning, Your Highness.
* '''King Triton:''' Sebastian.
* '''Sebastian: '''Hm? Oh! [chuckles]
* '''King Triton: '''Anything to report?
* '''Sebastian: '''[clears throat] Unfortunately, the sprat and the... smelt were still... [shrieks] squabbling. No worries. I told them I'd sic the salmon on them. [chuckles]
* '''King Triton: '''Sebastian, what would I do without you?
* '''Sebastian: '''You'd be negotiatin' with the sprat and the smelt, that's what.

(The princesses arrive before their father)
* '''King Triton: '''Good morning, girls.
* '''Attina, Alana, Adella, Aquata, Arista, Andrina and Ariel:''' Good morning, Father.
* '''King Triton: '''Marina.
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''Good morning, Your Majesty.
* '''Sebastian: '''[As he clears throat]
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''Sebastian.
* '''Sebastian: '''You're late.
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''I... uh... [chuckles, groans]
* '''Sebastian: '''Your Majesty.
* '''King Triton: '''Well, I presume you've all been attending to your royal duties this week.
* '''Princess Attina: '''Yes, Father. We've been working diligently.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''But, we're always done early.
* '''Princess Attina: '''Shh!
* '''Princess Ariel: '''And the coral is in bloom.
* '''Princess Andrina:''' Clam it!
* '''Princess Adella:''' Enough!

(Ariel swims to her father)
* '''Princess Ariel: '''So I thought maybe we could go for a swim on the reef?
* '''King Triton: '''Not today, Ariel.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''But it only happens once a year. It could be fun.
* '''King Triton: '''I don't have the time.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''I was thinking we could just skip the morning walk.
* '''Sebastian: '''Ariel! Your father said no.
* '''Princess Ariel: '''Yes, sir.

(She swims back to her sisters)
* '''Princess Attina: '''Nice job.

(They begin to swim out)
* '''Sebastian: '''Be on time tomorrow.
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''[grumbling]
* '''King Triton: '''[exhaling deeply]
* '''Marina Del Rey: '''Let's move it!
* '''Princess Adella: '''OK, we're coming.
* '''Princess Andrina: '''Time to go.
* '''Princess Attina: '''Great.
(They swim to go on their walk)
