[orchestral music]

[playful music]

(Eddie, British accent) Yes, King Saryu I greatly look forward to the wedding

but I also look forward to discussions

that will bring our kingdoms closer together.

Yes. Very good.

Until then, goodbye. Soren.

Everything is prepared, Your Majesty.

Great. The violinist?

The good one?

Tuning up as we speak.

Alright. Flowers?

Roses. The Queen's favorite.

(Soren) The Queen has finished her shift at the hospital.

Oh, right. Soren,

I really want everything to be prefect tonight.

It will be, Your Majesty.

[ambulance siren]

That wasn't so bad, was it?

Yes.

Sh!

Well, you were very brave.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Doctor.

[gasps]

You'll feel much better now, I promise.

(Eddie) Did you order the little cakes she likes?

Taken care of, sir.

Sir, as we are traveling to Southeast Asia

in less than 24 hours, perhaps you'd like to discuss the itinerary.

Soren, you know, there's is absolutely nothing I would rather do

than to discuss travel plans,

but I really should change. I've a party to attend.

[violin music]

(Paige) Eddie? Eddie what's going on?

(Eddie) What? It's a royal banquet

celebrating the King and Queen of Denmark's first wedding anniversary,

it's a very big deal.

So where is everyone?

Oh, [tsk] See? I knew I forgot something.

Happy anniversary, Paige.

Happy anniversary, Eddie.

(Paige) Eddie, this is wonderful.

I just wanted a few minutes alone with my wife.

Hm, now that is a rarity.

But, you certainly got me alone now.

Oh, we've received a wedding invitation.

Oh, who's wedding?

Princess Myra.

Then only daughter of the King of Sangyoon.

Sangyoon? That's in Asia.

Yes. That's where they keep it.

Eddie, I can't go that far. The hospital needs me.

They can spare you for a few days, the thing is,

I really need to go,

we're trying to get the king to bend on many issues

like the Red Ming, you know them?

That hill tribe group?

We've been trying to send humanitarian aid for months

they insist they don't need our help and won't accept any.

They're starving and need medical attention.

Which is why I need to speak to the King personally,

and I think this wedding is the perfect opportunity to do that.

And I'm going, too.

If you're going to use this wedding to talk politics,

you're going to need my help.

Sure.

Hm. The hospital can spare me for a few days.

I will mention that I love you very much.

I love you, too.

[violin music intensifies]

[birds chirp and caw]

[ethnic welcome music]

I think they like you.

Hello.

Your Majesties, please!

Your Majesties, we're in a third world country

it would we best not to mix with the public

if you kindly return fo the vehicle we can go to the palace.

Don't look at me, I can't control her, nor want to.

No. And nor should you.

Wow.

(Soren) Your Majesty, uh, when you greet the King,

the custom is to bow or courtesy to the front

until the King returns the bow

and you may then address him by saying,

"Mingkhalabah."

Say What?

"Ming."

"Ming."

"Khala."

"Bah."

"Mingkhalabah."

"Ming--" Okay.

[triumphant music]

Mmm--

Mmm--

Hello.

And greetings to you, King Edvard,

and Queen Paige.

(King Saryu) It is a great honor to welcome you to the Kingdom of Sangyoon.

Thank you, King Saryu we are very pleased to be here

for Princess Myra's wedding.

And we also look forward to discussions that will bring our kingdoms together.

There will be time for diplomacy,

but first, we dine.

(King Saryu) Come, my servants will show you to your quarters.

Oh.

Thank you.

[soft oriental music]

Hello.

I'm Soren, I'm, uh, King Edvard's chief aid.

Rayen.

(Myra) Rayen js the daughter

of my father's key adviser,

she's been my close companion since we were young.

How nice.

Queen Paige, if you please,

tell me of your own wedding. It was beautiful, yes?

(Paige) Yes, despite a few complications,

it was like a fairy tale.

Just as yours will be.

(King Saryu) I only wished the Queen had lived to see your wedding,

you look so like her.

[door shuts hard]

[gasps]

[suspense music]

(King Saryu) King Edvard, Queen Paige,

May I present my daughter's fiancee?

(King Saryu) Mr. Kah Rada. [ominous music]

Pleasure, Mr. Rada.

The pleasure is mine,

having the royal couple from Denmark here, for my wedding

is quite an honor.

(Paige) We were just discussing your wedding.

Princess Mayra.

[ominous music]

Ah, yes, It will certainly be a spectacle.

I leave that all up to Myra.

I know nothing of flowers or ceremony.

(Kah) King Edvard, have you liked Sangyoon?

A beautiful country. We're pleased to be here.

But our customs are so different.

Surly you'll disagree with some of them.

As I'm sure you disagree with some of ours.

Hal I told you. He's come with an agenda.

(Kah) Let me guess. The Red Ming.

Kah.

Yes. Yes. I disagree with the treatment of these people,

I hoped to speak to King Saryu about it.

Well, as you cry tears for these poor peasants,

they rebel against the King.

(Kah) Last week they tried to burn one of my factories.

They reach out for help to all the other countries, telling lies about their own.

They reach out for help because they're dying.

You know nothing of our problems!

Enough!

Now is not the time for such discussions.

Myra,

how did you and Mr. Rada meet?

(Saryu) They met at the day of their engagement.

The King and I made arrangements about six months ago.

(Kah) I had the privilege of meeting the Princess the very next day.

(Paige) I mean, can you imagine someone choosing who you're going to marry?

Paige, it's their way.

But it's not Myra's way! Look at her, she's miserable.

You don't know that.

Eddie, she's known him for a month,

not to mention he's kind of terrible.

Yes. He's not the most charming man in the world, that's for sure,

but it does make political sense

Kah Rada is one of the richest men in the country.

In Sangyoon's lagging economy it might be a good match.

What?

Why do I feel you're not as outraged about this as you should be?

Look, [sighs]

I'm not saying I agree with arranged marriages,

but it's common practice in Asia

and many other places around the world. You know that.

I know, but it doesn't seem right in this case.

I can't very well tell the King I don't like his choice of son in law, can I?

No, I guess not.

Listen,

I love that you care,

I love that you want to help wherever you can,

but this is out of our hands.

[Whispers] Eddie.

Eddie. Are you awake?

Eddie, I can't sleep. I think it's the jetlag.

Eddie.

[door creaks open]

[playful music]

My love, be careful.

ferash]

[dogs bark]

[voices]

(male voice) We heard a noise. Are you alright, Your Majesty?

(both) We're fine!

Paige!

Princess Myra.

You okay?

Yes, we were just looking at,

the moon.

Isn't that beautiful, Eddie?

Yes. Alright. Uh,

I must sleep.

Very nice.

What?

Oh, dear.

Did you tell anyone?

Just you.

Oh, dear.

We can't be in the middle of this.

His name is Alu. He works in the stable.

They grew up together, she loves him.

She told you that?

Yes. Last night after you went to sleep.

Her father won't listen to her. Eddie she begged me to help her.

We can't let her marry Kah.

Well, we came here to attend their wedding, not break them up.

It would be difficult to discuss the Red Ming situation

if you were thrown out of the palace.

[clears throat]

[playful music]

(Paige) Yes, / want to help them too, but,

we can't just ignore what's going on.

What if it were you and 1?

You know as well as I do, that if your parents had to choose your wife,

it certainly wouldn't have been me.

Alright.

Sir?

She's right. The Princess asked Queen Paige for help.

You can't ignore that.

I will speak to the King.

I won't be very well received, but I'll try.

Thank you.

(Soren) Well, this has "international incident" written all over it.

[drops spoon and gasps]

(Soren) The procession starts at two,

the King will bless the union

and the entire wedding party will move out into the streets.

(Soren) Thousands of people are waiting to catch a glimpse of Princess Myra.

You must speak with him before the procession.

[rhythmic oriental music]

It's beautiful.

Thank you.

Everything before you is mine or soon will be. Am I right?

[applause]

Good morning, Your Majesty.

Oh, good morning.

Gorgeous day, isn't it?

It is.

Oh, King Saryu, may I have a word?

Of course, but first,

I have a very important matter to discuss with the Queen

Me?

Yes. Come, please.

(King Saryu) Our traditions go back thousands of years.

We have honored them

and in return, good fortune have blessed our people.

(King Saryu) I will ask you to join me in a rite to bless my daughter's wedding.

(Paige) Of course, I would be honored.

[elephant trumpets]

I've never been this close to a real life elephant before.

It smells, just as I imagined.

I introduce, Kayla.

(King Saryu) Kayla is a part of our family,

she is descendant of the first elephant in all our kingdom.

(King Saryu) On Myra's wedding day, she will ride on Kayla to the altar,

good luck will be bestowed upon the couple and our people.

but today we offer the honor to our guest,

Queen Paige, will you ride on Kayla through the streets of Sangyoon?

On her?

[elephant trumpets]

I mean, of course.

But, on her?

(King Saryu) I am so pleased,

Kayla is as well, you can see it in her eyes.

[trumpets]

Do not worry. Alu will be right there by your side.

Now, if you will excuse me

we must begin.

Shouldn't you?

Can I not watch you?

Eddie, go.

Okay. Just-- [chuckles] Just be careful.

I'll watch for you, sir.

I will help you up, Your Majesty.

Thank you.

Alu, I want to try and help you and Myra.

Thank you.

International incident.

What?

Okay, Kayla, you and I are going to become great friends.

(Eddie) Your Majesty, I really need fo speak to you.

King Edvard, I appreciate your compassion for the Red Ming,

but the situation is more complex than you think.

I look forward to that discussion,

but I need to talk to you about something more personal.

Actually, it's rather delicate.

Yes?

Uh,

well, the Queen, my wife,

uh, she had a talk with Myra,

uh, a long talk, actually,

and it turns out

that neither of them feel that Kah

is the right man for your daughter.

I beg your pardon?

Sir

I don't believe that Princess Myra loves him.

Long!

[trumpets]

[trumpets]

[slap] Oh!

This is going on my Facebook page.

Why do we speak of love?

What does a young girl know about what's good for her?

Well, a lot.

My marriage to our late Queen was arranged by our fathers.

The years before she passed were the happiest of my life.

(Paige) [gasps] Oh.

[trumpets]

Oh. Ah. Okay.

Well done, Your Majesty.

I think you'd enjoy this a little less.

Myra?

[suspense music]

You will obey me!

(Paige) Alu, no! Don't do anything foolish. We'll talk to King Saryu.

It's too late to talk.

Alu, no!

I'll be your husband, your father agreed!

Kah is very wealthy,

and wise fo the ways of the world. He can take care of her.

Yes, but, [sighs]

isn't there more to a happy marriage than that?

(Alu) Get your hands off of her!

(Myra) Don't hurt him.

Excuse me.

Come on.

Excuse me, Your Majesty.

(Paige) Wait.

(Rayen) Alu, please. Stop!

(Alu) Don't you dare touch her.

(Kah) Let him go!

[suspense music]

Ugh.

Your Majesty.

I believe that international incident I was predicting

is happening as we speak.

No. No. Soren, wait!

(Eddie) That's enough!

(Kah) Keep your hands off me!

Gladly.

Alu, what's the meaning of this?

Your Majesty, I'm in love with your daughter, and she loves me.

I cannot allow her to marry another.

You cannot allow?

Who are you to allow anything?

Uh. Long.

Long. Long. Long!

[trumpets]

Oh, good girl, Kayla.

Oh, oh, there goes the rest of my shirt!

Oh, oh.

[trumpets]

What's this behavior? Haven't I treated you well since you were a child?

(Kah) This is treason! A peasant assaulted the future King of Sangyoon.

Alu was trying to protect Myra from you.

What?

I would change my tone when speaking to the Queen, if I were you.

Your Majesty, Mr. Rada was extremely rough with your daughter.

I'd have done the same as this boy had I been closer.

[elephant trumpets]

Your Majesty

where's Kayla?

She's right--

She was right there, I guess she just wandered off.

Wandered off?

Oh, dear.

Take him away!

Father, no!

Silence! He lost the elephant, he must pay the price.

Alu!

Queen Paige, please show us where you last saw Kayla.

Of course.

(Soren) According to the law

without the elephant the marriage would be cursed.

(Paige) How could she just disappear?

Apparently, elephants can run at over 24 kilometers per hour.

Really?

It's on that fact sheet on Sangyoon I gave you.

Do you two ever read anything I give you?

(male voice) Over here! Over here!

Her tracks lead north.

(Kah) The Red Ming are from the north,

You should send them the army immediately,

make an example for these criminals.

Your Majesty, there is no reason to assume that a crime has occurred here.

It's just the coincidence a Red Ming peasant leaves the elephant alone

and now her tracks lead towards their village. It's a conspiracy.

This is very upsetting.

A bad omen on the week of my daughter's wedding.

I must think.

Excuse me.

[suspense music]

I feel terrible.

You're not responsible for losing the elephant.

It's sacred to them, Eddie.

Well, I'm sure they don't blame you.

Well, they're not very happy that you lost their elephant.

See?

They won't charge you for it or anything.

Soren.

Yes, well, King Saryu

has decided to send the army to retrieve Kayla

and to punish those who took her.

[gasps] This doesn't make sense.

(Eddie) These people have always been peaceful Right?

Do you know anything about this boy, Alu?

(Rayen) Alu has nothing to do with Kayla's disappearance.

He's been in this household since he was a child.

(Rayen) He's not a rebel. He's a Jovesick boy.

This is all my fault.

We came here to help them and now we've made it worse.

(Eddie) Your Majesty, I hear you're sending in the army.

An example must be made.

Isn't this rash?

The Red Ming committed a crime and Alu helped them.

Now they will pay the price.

Wait!

Your Majesty,

what if--

What if we got her back?

Pardon?

Your Majesty.

What if you waited to send in the army

let us try to find her and bring her back?

[whispers] It's ridiculous.

Hm. She's got a point.

We can bring her back.

You're going to wander into our jungles, alone?

You wouldn't last a day!

(Rayen) I will lead them, Your Majesty.

I can track the elephant and lead them through the jungle safely.

Please, Your Majesty,

hold off the army for a couple of days.

We'll bring her back.

She can still bless Mayra's wedding and perhaps Alu can be spared.

Sir.

At sunset on Saturday my daughter will be married.

If you return Kayla before that time

we will spare Alu and the peasants.

Your Majesty!

But if you fail or are late, Alu will stay in jail

and I will send in the army to exact revenge for this crime.

[suspense music]

(Soren) Sir, may I question the wisdom of this, uh, venture?

(Eddie) Why?

We know nothing of the geography,

we know nothing about jungles,

and frankly, we know nothing about elephants.

We haven't got much choice.

I have an idea.

We could, just, uh, get on a plane and go home.

(Eddie) Where do you think you're going?

Where do you think I think I'm going?

I hope it's not where I think you think you're going.

Can we stop, please?

Didn't we talk about this last night?

Yes, I remember you doing a lot of talking, I don't recall what you're saying

[playful music]

Paige, you are the Queen of Denmark.

And you are the King, so what?

What if you get hurt?

I'm a doctor. What if you get hurt?

She's caught you there, sir.

(Paige) It's my fault Kayla disappeared so I'm coming.

Any chance I can change your mind?

Nope.

(Eddie) Can I drive, at least?

Yes.

(Soren) I suppose the jungle's as good a place to die as anywhere.

Your Majesties.

(Edie) Yeah?

(Soren) Sir.

It seems your security detail

js about to put a stop to our little venture.

Right.

[engine doesn't start]

[engine starts]

What are you smiling about?

Am 1?

Yes, you are. You're enjoying this.

Well, it makes a change from talking politics. Isn't that?

Yes, it's certainly a respite from the mundane

when you get to drive around with a woman on the hood.

Stop!

That's a lawsuit.

Sorry.

She went this way.

Tough, isn't she?

She could beat me up.

(both) So do I.

(Rayen) Kayle entered the jungle here.

So, it's, uh, back to the plane then?

No. We follow her.

Your Majesty, the jungle's very dangerous.

There's no turning back past this point.

We go where Kayla goes.

Well, what are we waiting for? Soren.

(Soren) Do you really think we'll be able to find this elephant?

Yes.

Right.

I, I, do too. I mean, you know what you're doing,

it doesn't seem very hard to you.

Do you ever get tired of being so proper?

No.

Yes.

(Paige) Eddie, are you being careful with that thing?

Uh, I think I may have to use a machete.

Oh, get a lot of practice cutting in the jungle, do you?

See? We adventurous types, we've got instincts.

(Paige) Yeah, well, don't cut your leg, I left the surgical bag at home.

Thanks for your concern but I believe I'm quite capable of--

Eddie!

Ah! Ugh!

Oh!

Agh.

Eddie!

Are you hurt?

Just my pride! Uh.

I'll be right up.

No, can't.

Sir?

It appears to be too steep for you to climb out.

Does it, Soren? Really? Does it?

(Rayen) Look out!

(Rayen) We're losing daylight. Ugh.

[soft oriental music]

[suspense music] [gasps]

Dry your eyes, my love.

What are you doing here?

You know inside your childish feelings for that criminal will fade

and you will come to care for me.

He's not a criminal. He had nothing to do with Kayla's disappearance.

You're young and naive and know nothing of the world.

I know that I don't love you.

And I never will.

What does love matter?

Your family connections, my business sense, that is what's important.

Together, we'll make Sangyoon a financial center.

All you care about is money and power.

You've been lying to me about the Red Ming ever since we've met.

When the King and Queen return with Kayla

they will see through your lies.

They will not return with that creature.

You know how dangerous our jungles can be.

Good day, Princess.

[suspense music]

[Kah claps]

Quickly!

I have a special assignment for you.

[mutters]

Anything wrong?

It looks like we're lost.

We're not lost. Are we, Rayen?

(Soren) I know what lost looks like and it looks very much like this.

Give me a moment, Your Majesty.

[animal noises]

[playful music] Hey, little guy.

Ah!

Paige!

Oh, you like that, huh? Huh?

Yeah, right.

Kayla!

Eddie!

(Eddie) Paige!

Eddie, hurry!

Are you all right? Did you fall? Are you okay?

I'm okay. And look what I found.

Right.

Eddie! It's Kayla's costume.

Oh!

Nice work, Your Majesty.

So we're not lost, after all.

I always had the utmost confidence.

Must have been knocked off by one of these branches.

Or removed by elephant kidnapping bandits.

Devil's advocate.

(Rayen) I found the trail again. This way.

What's that for?

For being worried about me.

And for being my hero.

Let's go.

[suspense music]

It will be dark soon, we will camp here.

But there's still daylight.

The jungle gets very challenging at night, Your Majesty.

No, she's right. I imagine Kayla will be having a little sleep, too, won't she?

Yes, Your Majesty. I'll get some wood.

Thank you.

Alright. Then we get in?

[splashing sound and suspense music]

(Eddie) Soren.

You alright?

Yeah.

What's wrong?

I just--

This is all my fault.

Kayla missing, Alu and Myra--

Listen. We'll find her, okay? And it will all be alright.

I promise.

They do that a lot.

Yes, well, uh, I was just, uh, thinking about dinner

I've got a variety of canned foods.

Do you have any special dietary requirements we should be aware of?

I say, nice work.

I'll get some water.

Right.

Eddie.

Uh-huh?

I hear something.

What?

[suspense music]

[footsteps and shouting in foreign language]

Just calm down.

Soren, do something.

Say something in Sangyooni.

I only know how to say "hello," not "please, don't shoot us."

Soren.

Mingkhalabah.

Quiet!

I think he speaks English.

On your knees!

Now!

(Rayen) Agh!

Run, Your Majesty!

Pretty bloody impressive.

Rayen.

Are these men Red Ming?

No. They wear the uniform of the Royal Sangyoon Army.

The Army? Who would send the Army after us?

Why don't we ask them?

Uh, excuse me.

Hello?

No, they're not waking up.

Ugh!

Oh!

Gracious.

Who are you? What do you want?

[foreign language]

In English!

We were ordered to stop you from returning the elephant.

Ordered by whom? The King?

[coughs] I'm not telling you anything more.

(Paige) Why would the King send the Army after us?

(Eddie) Well, I bet it wasn't the King.

I thought it was Kah.

(Soren) Yeah. We surly don't want to throw all these rifles away.

Your Majesties! I found her tracks!

(Rayen) This way!

Now we're pretty lucky Rayen is with us, actually, aren't we?

(Eddie) Come on, Soren. You know good guys don't carry guns.

Right.

Well, who needs rifles anyway?

Unless the bad guys have rifles, but why would they?

Except, of course, they do have rifles.

(soldier) Lieutenant, do you copy?

Do they copy?

No.

(male voice) Help!

Let's go! Come on!

(Paige) She's amazing, isn't she?

(Eddie) Absolutely. The way she can track based on a broken blade of grass,

I've never seen anything like it.

Good fighter, too.

(Eddie) Did you see that jump kick, and all the machetes, incredible!

Yes, I saw. She's really beautiful, too.

Hm? Yes, but she's-- Rayen!

Good job, Your Majesty.

(Soren) I'm taking a survey.

Has anyone ever been this hot in their entire lives?

Anyone?

It's fresh. We're close.

What's fresh?

Oh.

That's disgusting.

Did she just touch that?

This is--

Really unsightly.

[suspense music]

(Rayen) The trail ends here.

Right. So Kayla went for a swim?

Does this mean we can take a break?

No. We swim across.

It's not safe. We don't know what's in that water.

(Paige) You mean, like crocodiles and stuff?

I've seen a few farther north but--

She's right. We'll just find the best place to cross.

And how long is that gonna take?

Hello.

We only have two days to return Kayla

and for some reason we have soldiers trying to stop us

we don't have time to look for a better spot.

We all want to find Kayla but we can't be reckless.

Oh, excuse me, anyone please, I'm quite in fear for my life over here.

(Paige) Just because she says it isn't safe doesn't mean it's true.

(Eddie) She knows the river, it seems she would know if it's safe.

Okay, I guess she's just really smart and she's just really good at everything

I guess we should do whatever she says.

Don't do anything to frighten it, okay?

Why are we fighting about a river?

We're not fighting, we're discussing.

It feels like a fight.

You've-- you've done this before?

Hey, no.

No? Well, you might have kept quiet about that.

It's not a fight. It's a very important discussion

on how you've been drooling over Rayen.

What?

Ah!

[hiss]

Ugh.

Well--

(Soren) Thank you.

Why are you looking at me like that?

You make me laugh.

Your Majesties. If you wait here

I'll find a bridge or another safe way to cross.

Right. Good idea. But you shouldn't go alone, I'll come with you.

Paige, will you stay here with Soren?

Fine.

Won't be long, okay?

Fine.

About an hour.

Fine.

Fine?

(Soren) Would you like something to eat, Your Majesty?

No, thank you. I'm not hungry.

I could try to find that snake, I understand they're a delicacy here.

Is there something wrong, Your Majesty?

Yes. No. Uh.

I don't know.

It doesn't even matter

when I think all this trouble started because of a mistake I made.

You didn't do anything wrong.

I know it's not my fault but it feels like it is.

And now I'm just sitting here

feeling alone.

He loves you with all his heart.

Well, he'd love me more if I was better at tracking elephants

and could handle a machete.

My Queen, that is simply--

[suspense music]

Uh, Your Majesty.

Yes?

I think we may have a problem.

[shouting in foreign language]

We're surrounded.

(Eddie) What am I supposed to do?

Just let her swim in the river with who knows what in there?

Crocodiles, snakes.

Those fish with the teeth--

Piranha.

Yes, piranha.

They're mainly found in South America.

It's not the point.

The point is that--

She just wants to know that you love and respect her.

Well, of course I do.

You should remind her.

Yeah, I suppose I should.

You're pretty clever, aren't you?

I majored in psychology in Oxford.

[light growl]

Right.

I gotta climb that tree to get a better view of the river.

Oxford, huh?

Good school.

A tracker, ninja fighting psychologist from Oxford.

You don't see them every day.

Be careful, Your Majesty.

Don't worry about me, I'm quite the professional tree climber.

Ugh. Ugh.

(Eddie) I see a boat. About a kilometer over there.

(Paige) Eddie!

(Eddie) Paige?

Paige!

The soldiers got Paige and Soren.

What? Your Majesty, careful!

They're loading them onto a boat.

[foreign language]

This is not good.

This is bad.

Ugh.

Slow down!

Ah!

Ah.

Your Majesty, are you okay?

Paige!

Eddie! Eddie! [muffled]

Don't--

Paige!

Your Majesty, wait!

Paige!

(Rayen) Wait!

Edvard, stop!

What?

Not like this. We need a boat.

The fishing boat, okay, let's go.

Hello.

Hello!

(Eddie) Over here! Can you help us?

Please?

[foreign language]

Let's go that way.

[foreign language and muffled voices]

(Soren) That's not good!

Let her go!

Help! Help!

Keep moving.

(soldier) Yes, sir. We have the Queen and the servant,

are you sure, sir?

No, sir, I'm not questioning your orders, sir.

Yes. I understand, sir.

Halt!

This is not good.

Sir, I would think very carefully about what you're about to do.

Quiet. I have my orders.

From whom? Kah Rada?

(Paige) He is not your commanding officer, King Saryu is. Speak to him.

I'm sorry.

(Soren) Sir,

Are you absolutely sure you're taking orders from the right person?

[elephant trumpets]

[shouting]

Kayla!

(Male voice) Queen Paige?

Yes.

Wow! Queen Paige!

[trumpets and cheering]

Queen Paige! Hurray!

I never thought I'd be grateful for tabloids.

(Rayen) It's getting dark.

Rayen! There!

(Rayen) I see it.

Come on!

Your Majesty, we need the Royal Guard.

What? How long is that going to take? A day? Two days?

We have no idea where they're taking them or what we're walking into.

Now, I realize this is not your fight

but that is my wife and friend out there.

I'm not leaving them.

You don't have to help me and don't even think about trying to stop me.

Okay, as you wish.

But they won't get far at night. I can't track them till the sun is up.

Your Majesty, I'm sorry.

[male speaks foreign language]

[door creaks open] Myra. Myra!

Sh! The guards let me in.

You shouldn't be here. Someone might see you.

I had to come, I had to see you. Are you all right?

I am strong.

And they are not unkind. They know me.

Alu, the King and Queen have still not returned.

We're running out of time.

Myra, no matter what happens,

I love you.

I'll always love you.

I'l love you til} the end of time.

[foreign language]

Go. Go. Someone's coming.

[sobbing] Alu, I will never forget you.

[suspense music]

I'm awake.

(Rayen) It's a village.

The tracks lead straight there.

(Rayen) We must be careful.

[trumpets]

Kayla!

Kayla. Where have you been? We were so worried.

(Eddie) Stay here. /'ff try to find Paige.

Are you all right?

[chuckles] I missed you, too.

[foreign language]

[suspense music]

[gasps]

Sh. Sh.

Hm. Mm.

Eddie.

Are you okay?

I'm okay.

I was so worried about you and Soren.

Soren's okay. We're both okay.

Alright. Okay, This is the plan.

You, me, Soren,

get out of here! Okay?

Eddie, wait.

Sh. Sh.

Mm.

They've got Rayen.

King Edvard, it's all right. You can come out.

It's the Red Ming, they're our friends, they saved us.

What?

[elephants trumpet]

[playful music]

Your Majesty!

His name's William.

At least I think that's what he said.

What's going on here?

They're sick, Eddie.

I'm Tanquin. Thank you for coming.

Please.

The weak of the village are getting sick.

More get sick each day.

[sighs] I can't figure it out. I thought it was malaria but it doesn't seem to fit.

We have asked others for help

but you are the first to come.

Hello.

I knew when Kayla came to us

she would bring good fortune.

She came to you?

(Paige) They said she just wandered into the village yesterday.

Apparently, they believe that Kayla brought you here to save them.

Maybe she did.

(Eddie) We will send educational supplies, uh, medical supplies

we'll do everything in our power to help you.

Okay?

(Eddie) But now,

we need to get that elephant on the road

we've got tomorrow afternoon to get back to the palace.

(Tanqui No! "

No?

Why?

She came to us. We cannot turn her away.

Yes, but the King believes your people stole the elephant.

We have been blamed for many things.

(Tanquin) They say we steal, we're disloyal,

one month ago a factory burned

many of our people died,

we kill our own?

Why?

They have blamed us so no one will listen to us.

Kayla is the first sign of fortune.

But if we don't return her, King Saryu will send in the army

and there's a young boy who will be punished as well.

The you can compete for her.

(Tanquin) If Kayla's luck is with you,

you can take her, if not, she will stay here.

I'm s o rey , u h ,

"compete" for her?

How?

(Soren) They're saying this fellow's their strongest warrior.

Eddie.

Paige, it's all right.

If I win, we get the elephant and we can go.

Yeah, you just have to win.

Thanks, Soren.

That's all right.

This is a bad idea.

Bring it on.

[foreign language]

[suspense music]

I should be able to handle him.

Or maybe not.

This seems ill advised.

There has to be another way.

That's fine. You trust me?

Of course I do.

Wish me luck.

[clears throat]

Right.

[crowd exclaims]

Ah!

[crowd cheers]

You still can win, sir.

[indistinct]

He doesn't know how to use that thing.

I don't suppose they'd like to have a fencing contest.

Rayen,

can I borrow your machete?

Oh! Ah! Oh!

En guard, Your Majesty.

Well?

You have proven yourself worthy,

you may take the elephant.

Right. Get her.

No!

No?

After the feast.

Feast?

[mouthing silently]

(Rayen) It is tradition, Your Majesty,

you are now their greatest warrior

and they will celebrate with a feast. [stresses the "s" in feast]

Oh, a feast! [crowd cheers]

Uh, thank you, but we, uh, have to go.

She looks a bit grumpy.

Your Majesty, it might be best.

Okay, we'll have a feast.

[crowd cheers]

[festive music and laughing]

Ah. I lost my appetite.

What are those?

This fly.

I don't know their name in English

but they are very rare.

(Soren) Thank God.

Uh, thank you, but, uh,

They are honoring you with this special delicacy.

You want ketchup?

Sir, seriously, don't.

[crunch]

Oh. Crunchy. Crunchy.

[rhythmic ethnic music]

We are going to help these people, aren't we?

Yes. Of course we are.

(all) Ah!

(Rayen) King Edvard, I just wanted fo say you fought extremely well this afternoon.

I was impressed.

Really? Thank you, Rayen,

that's quite a compliment, coming from you.

Ladies, will you excuse me for a moment?

There's someone I need to see.

He's quite a man.

Yes.

I'm jealous of what you share.

Yes, I'm very lucky that he's mine.

I think when you find someone you care about

you shouldn't let them get away,

no matter what the obstacles might be.

I should go.

Good evening, Your Majesty.

[suspense music]

[British male whispers] I just don't think anyone should know.

(Rayen) But I want to tell the world.

(male) Yes, but--

[suspense music intensifies]

What is going on?

Soren.

Your Majesty.

Oh, you're-- I'm sorry fr interrupting.

Oh, you're not interrupting anything, we're just,

uh, we, we were just, uh, discussing the best way back to the palace.

You were talking about Soren, just now?

(Soren) And, and, and then, you see, Rayen slipped,

and her, her mouth, fell on mine.

I see, hm.

I like this, [whispers] so much.

Oh, no, no, no.

It's just one of those crazy accidents.

A million to one, really.

He's a lucky man.

You see, we're just, we're just, uh, good friends.

Right.

(Soren) Totally platonic.

Uh-huh.

[playful music]

I think she bought it.

(Soren) oh! (both laugh)

This is Mr. Coin. See?

And Mr. Coin likes to dance.

I'll take my wedding ring off, Sh, don't tell Paige.

[giggling]

(Eddie shrill voice) There he js.

[normal voice] Right. Ready?

[sings] Mr. Coin, Mr. Coin.

He loves to disappear. Watch him.

Ready? [whooshing sound] Where is it? Where? Is it there?

is it there? Is it?

Should I have a look? [blows]

Oh! It's there!

Oh. [children laugh]

[voices of Eddie and children]

(Eddie) Hey, you got a coin there,

do you always keep coins behind your ear?

(Eddie) Do you? [children laugh]

(Eddie) Ready? Look up here. Up here.

[all chuckle]

You're gonna be outside running around soon, okay?

I promise.

Hello.

Hi.

What were you doing in there?

I just wanted them to have some fun tonight, too.

Okay?

Yes.

I just wanted to say I'm sorry.

What for?

For being jealous and silly.

You are silly, yeah.

Paige, there's no one else.

There'll never be anyone else. Do you know why?

Why?

No room.

I love you.

[ominous music]

What are you doing here?

Sir,

I'm afraid I failed my mission.

Agh!

Sir!

Sir!

Kayla.

(Paige) It'll be okay

Unforgettable.

(Paige and Eddie) Bye, bye!

[elephant trumpets]

[ominous music]

Your Majesty,

the Red Ming will attack the palace.

What?

I overheard a worker in the field.

They're planning to disrupt the wedding just like they did the ceremonies.

Why are my people so angry? What makes them want to hurt the royal family?

I can't say, but we must foil their plans.

(King Sar How? ve

Move up the wedding, Your Majesty.

But I've told the Danish King and Queen

that they have until sunset to bring Kayla back.

This is not their kingdom, this is not their problem.

You must handle this, Your Majesty.

How quickly can we move up the ceremony?

We're making good time.

(Eddie) We should be in the palace by early afternoon.

Your Majesties, we need to stop for some water.

(Rayen) There's a river nearby.

Right.

Your Majesty.

Rayen, what on earth is that?

(Rayen) That's where the villagers work. One of Kah Rada's factories.

What?

(Rayen) A terrible place,

he forces them to work 15 hours a day. Children, the elderly.

There are no exceptions.

Eddie, look.

[spits]

That's what's making the villagers sick.

(Soren) This is horrible.

Don't drink the water.

(Eddie) Now I understand why Kah is so anxious fo demonize the Red Ming.

Sir!

Soldiers.

Kah.

King Edvard!

[trumpet]

Are you all right?

We're fine, thanks.

We've been searching for you everywhere,

the Danish Army's been called in.

Call them off. We need to get back to the palace before the wedding.

That can be a problem, sir.

What?

The King's moved up the wedding.

(King Saryu) Princess Myra,

do you enter into the sacred bond,

not only for yourself, but for the Kingdom of Sangyoon?

(King Saryu) Myra.

Qh, father, if only we could wait a little bit longer.

I'm sure they will arrive with Kayla.

If we wait any longer, the Red Ming can spring their attack.

Myra.

Father, please.

My dear, Kah is a good man

he will take care of you and our kingdom.

We must think of the greater good.

Sometimes, sacrifices are necessary.

I'm sorry, father, you're right.

(Myra) The kingdom is more important than my happiness.

Princess Myra

before all these people and before God,

do you enter into the sacred bond

not only for yourself but for the Kingdom of Sangyoon?

You must say "l do."

[elephant trumpets]

[car horn]

[joyful music]

Stop!

Myra, are we too late?

No, Queen Paige, you did it. I knew you would.

Girl, where have you been?

The King and Queen of Denmark have returned our Kayla.

The marriage and our kingdom will have her blessing.

[crowd cheers]

(Eddie) Your Majesty.

I need to speak to you about your daughter's fiancee.

(Kah) Don't listen to him, Your Majesty.

(King Saryu) Excuse me, King Edvard has earned the right to speak.

Sir, this man is exploiting the people of the North

amongst many things we have reason to believe

he is dumping poison in their water supply.

(Kah) Absurd! Those people are all thieves and fliars/

You're the one lying about them so no one will believe them.

Our policies are none of your business.

Is that why you sent the Army after us? Because we were interfering in your business?

The Army?

It's true, Your Majesty. The soldiers came after us

and attacked us and tried to kidnap Queen Paige.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You told me to move up the wedding.

You told me the Red Ming were planning an attack.

Your Majesty, if you are intent on marrying your daughter to this man

to strengthen your country, I must say,

as far as Denmark is concerned, it will have the opposite effect.

We don't need Denmark or this King!

This is our kingdom! The Red Ming are peasants made to work!

Their sacrifice will be the basis of our brand new world economy.

(King Saryu) What have I done?

How could I not see the cruelty in you?

I'm sorry, Myra.

There will be no wedding!

(Kah) What?

You are a fool if you think you are calling off this wedding.

I'll ruin you! I'll use every connection I have to bring down this kingdom!

As for you--

Ugh!

[crowd exclaims]

She punched my nose!

Yes, I did.

(King Saryu) Take him away!

Nice punch.

Really? You think so?

Absolutely.

(Paige) Thanks, it's my first.

[Kah growls] Get your hands off me,

I'm calling my lawyer.

(King Saryu) Your Majesties, please accept my apologies.

If there's anything I can do to make amends--

Yes, there is, Your Majesty.

(Eddie) To release Alu and you can accept our ald for the Red Ming.

Of course.

[crowd cheers]

And--

Yes, my Queen?

Your Majesty, Alu loves your daughter,

and she loves him,

I know you're worried about who will lead your kingdom someday,

but your daughter is a smart and capable woman,

you should trust her judgment and her choice.

(King Saryu) But what does a simple boy like Alu know about being a king?

I was just a farm girl when I became the Queen of Denmark.

[elephant trumpets]

(King Saryu) The course of true love never did run smooth

the couple standing before me have loved one another.

despite many forces trying to keep them apart

including me.

(King Saryu) But I was wrong and they were right.

(King Saryu) Let this not only be a union of my daughter and her love

but of the Kingdom of Sangyoon!

We are not divided, North and South,

from this day forward,

we are one!

Alu, do you enter into this sacred bond

not only for yourself but for the Kingdom of Sangyoon?

I do, with all my heart.

And Myra,

do you enter into this sacred bond

not only for yourself but for the Kingdom of Sangyoon?

I do, with all my heart.

[oriental music]

Alu, son.

You may kiss the bride.

I now have the great honor of introducing to you

the future King and Queen of Sangyoon!

[elephant trumpets]

[drums]

[crowd exclaims]

[joyful music]

Well, I think that was a rather lovely way

to celebrate our first year anniversary, don't you think?

I suppose.

What?

Oh, come on, it had everything.

Adventure, exotic locations,

star crossed lovers,

an elephant--

Okay, you win.

Thank you.

It was amazing.

But you really set the bar high for our two year anniversary,

Hm.

[crowd cheers]

(Soren) Your Majesties,

well, uh. Hello?

(Soren) Yes, yes, uh, well, 1, 1, I--

Well, I just-- 5, 1 I--

I'm going to be, uh--

He's taking a vacation.

Yes, I though I might cash in a few vacation days, yes.

I think that's great, Soren. You deserve it,

Any particular Rayen-- Sorry, reason?

I make her laugh.

[gasps]

Soren, you caught the bridal wreath.

So I did.

Could you play "Someone I can love"?

[music begins and crowd cheers]
