[Elena] The Magic Within, Part One.

Let's try it again, but remember, don't drum with your hands,

drum with your heart.

And together, we'll make a heartbeat that will power the Carnaval Parade.

From the top, with feeling!

The floats will exit Castillo Park, make their way through the Via Mercado

and then enter the stadium for the highlight of Carnaval,

the Samba-enredo singing competition!

Excellent plan, Esteban.

Thanks to you, mijito,

the Carnaval will surely be a great success.

This is true.

What are we going to sing for the competition this year?

"Love Always."

Aww! That was Mami's favorite.

She used to sing it to Elena and me every night.

-We'd dance around and around... -Whew.

So it was her way of tiring you girls out before bed, eh?

[chuckles]

Where is Elena? She was supposed to meet us here.

I will find her. And tell her to start practicing.

We have to win the Samba-enredo contest.

[grunts] Where is she?

Somewhere in the jungle.

Same as an hour ago... [yawns]

...and an hour before that and an hour before that.

Ash has to pass a landmark at some point, right?

She better. It's the only way we can pinpoint where she is.

Oh, there you are.

[gasps, then sighs]

We missed you at the Carnaval meeting.

Hmm. What are you doing here?

Trying to find Ash.

All day.

She needs to take a break.

No, I don't!

Victor and Carla may be captured, but there's one more Delgado out there.

Ash is the worst threat our kingdom has ever faced!

But you're exhausted.

[sighs] Maybe I have been at this too long.

We can pick it up again tomorrow.

-Great. bye! -Adios!

See ya, Princess.

Mijita, catching Ash is important.

But not as important as your health.

OK, abuelo.

I'll call it a night.

Good. Because you will need your energy

to practice our Samba-enredo.

-[door closes] -[sighs]

Maybe just one more peek.

Farsight!

I can feel it.

The magic of the crystal forge will be mine.

Just one more turn and... [groans]

This puzzle is impossible.

Nothing lines up.

And now I'm talking to myself.

[groans softly]

Hmm...

The Jaquin constellation?

[gasps]

Maybe if I match the jewels to the stars.

Yes!

At last.

Show me Takaína.

[gasps] It's under Tepet Muul.

[evil laugh]

Ah-ha! I knew you wouldn't take a vacation.

-[gasps] She found Takaína. -Takaína?

The Maruvians' crystal forge. It's where they built all their magical treasures.

-Like my scepter? -That's right.

Inside the forge is the Well of Crystals.

If someone as wicked as Ash gets their hands on even one of them,

the whole world could be in big danger.

Then I'd better make sure that doesn't happen.

[door opens]

Mateo, I found Ash.

[puzzle whirring]

Ah-ha. [chuckles softly]

[puzzle whirring]

[beeping]

[puzzle whirring continues]

[puzzle clicking]

Whoa. Did you see that?

She's inside.

Return to the palace and bring backup. Hurry!

You got it, princesa!

Elena, wait for me!

Oh... Takaína!

[gasps]

This must be the source of the magic.

[rattles]

[thudding]

-[Elena] Blaze! -Ah!

Boqato!

Ximocu!

-Blaze! -[grunts]

[grunts]

Llevaluq!

Where did she go?

Stay alert.

Talazia!

Huh?

[grunts]

Boqato!

[grunts]

[screams]

Hmm.

Solaza!

Ah!

Bajaluq!

Elena!

Lleva--

My scepter.

Not just your scepter. All of you.

[grunting]

No! Talazia!

Solaza!

Mateo!

Boqato!

Huh?

Since when can your scepter deflect spells?

Since now, I guess.

And I'm not even tired.

Talact!

[gasps]

Freeze!

Way ahead of you.

You caught her?

We sure did!

Whoa, princesa, what happened to you?

Oh, not much. I fell in a magic well.

And, check it out, sparkly shoes,

even more sparkly dress and a super-charged scepter.

-Glow! -Whoa.

And it deflected Ash's spell.

Who knows what else it can do?

I can't wait to find out.

But first, we need to drop something off at the palace dungeon.

Can you believe it?

All the Delgados are captured and the realm is secure at last!

I'm so happy, I could do a backflip.

One backflip coming right up.

Whoo-hoo!

Elena. Your dress.

All this and a light-up dress?

Can this day get any better?

Whoo-hoo!

[Marlena vocalizing]

♪ Little hummingbird in flight ♪

♪ Bringing delight as you Light upon each flower ♪

[whistles] Sorry I'm late,

but I had to finish writing our song for the competition.

What are you talking about?

We already decided to sing Marlena's song.

That was before I wrote this masterpiece.

I didn't know you wrote songs.

I do now.

But Marlena is the best musician in Avalor.

Why would we change songs?

Because we want to win.

Look around. The competition is fierce.

[vocalizing]

And if there's one thing I know,

it's how to compete and win.

What do you think of it, Marlena?

"Cast your eyes on the wonder of me"?

It just screams "winner," doesn't it?

It sure makes me want to scream.

I guess we could give it a try.

Great, then I'll leave you all to learn my masterpiece

while I order our costumes and find a way

to spruce up this poor excuse for a float.

[grunts]

-Ash? -[gasps] Mamí?

Mija!

[panting] Elena!

-Mateo told us you caught Ash. -We did, cousin.

And now all of Avalor's enemies are rounded up.

If that were true, Esteban would be in here with us.

Save your breath, Victor. Your words are meaningless to me.

Ah, this must be so frustrating for you, eh?

Me out here, you in there,

and the princess will never believe a word you say.

The truth always has a way of coming out.

Yes, if only you did.

Hmm? [chuckles]

...then we'll use the feathers for the eyelashes

and the streamers to cover the legs.

Familia, I'm home!

[gasps] Mijita!

Oh!

We heard the good news about Ash.

But not about your dress. It's so sparkly now.

-I know, right? -Are you OK?

More than OK. I can actually relax and enjoy Carnaval.

Right after you help us build our float.

-It's going to look like this. -Oh, an alpacamundi?

Like the kind we saw in Vallestrella.

Now we just gotta build one 48.5 times bigger.

And then head over to Castillo Park to practice our song.

Oh, so much for relaxing. Let me just wash up.

-And so am I! -Whoa!

You're the float model!

Float model? Well, that's a mouthful.

How about you just call me Flo.

You're... alive?

That's a nice name, too, but I think I prefer "Flo."

-Zuzo! -Nope. Sticking with Flo.

[screams]

[glass shatters]

[gasps] My potions! My bed! I just made that!

Zuzo, I don't know what's going on!

It-- It feels like my brain is spinning.

-Ah! -Whoa! My planets!

Oh, I got it!

[gasps]

Um... I'll have to get that back to you later.

Eww! It's OK. You can keep it.

How did this happen?

Good question.

OK, what were you doing right before she came to life?

-I was singing. -What about?

Uh... how happy I was to be alive.

-And then my-- -Uh, who are you talking to?

My spirit guide. Only I can see him.

[chuckles]

If you say so.

And then my dress glowed.

Hmm, fascinating.

Like it did right before the orrery started spinning?

Uh-huh. It was a different color, but it lit up.

I don't know why it keeps doing that.

I do! Your emotions are making magic!

My emotions are making magic?

Of course! Why didn't I see it before?

It's because you fell into that well in Takaína--

You fell into the Well of Crystals?

I might've.

You should have led with that.

Falling in the well boosted the magic inside you.

And based on the evidence,

whenever you feel a big emotion,

big magic's gonna happen.

You're saying my happiness brought Flo to life?

It did? Aww.

Exactly.

And when you felt like everything was spinning out of control,

you almost destroyed Mateo's planet thingy!

So, I'm not supposed to get too happy or too anxious?

What else am I not supposed to feel?

Fear? Sadness? Love?

-This is impossible! -Uh-oh.

Hey! I didn't swallow it this...

[gulps] Never mind.

Think calming thoughts, Elena.

Pretty waterfalls, floating leaves, baby Jaquins.

Baby Jaquins, baby Jaquins.

[sighs] That's better.

OK, maybe I can keep my emotions in check.

But what if I can't?

Well, on the bright side,

your dress has a built-in warning light before the magic happens.

-Get it? Bright side. -[sighs] I got it.

[birds chirping]

[sighs] We only have one more day to practice.

-Where's Doña Paloma? -[upbeat drumming]

You had to ask.

Well, what do you think?

It certainly gets your attention.

And doesn't let go.

Good, because I'm having costumes just like this one made for all of you.

Oh, you don't have to do that--

Already done!

Now, let's practice my song. You all learned it, right?

We sure did.

Good. I'll take the first verse, then you join in.

Hit it, boys!

Does she know how bad this is?

I don't think so.

Oh!

Ooh, look at that! It's a big me!

Hey, I've always wanted a big sister. Hmm?

Since when? You're not even a day old.

Um, come on!

Feel some of those oh-so-happy-to-be-alive feelings.

And send them in that direction.

Nice try, Flo.

But I'm all done bringing things to life today.

Fine, be that way. But me getting a big sister

is only the most important thing ever and--

Ooh, churros!

[horse snorts]

Oh! [sighs]

Hola, familia. I'm ready to practice.

Where are my feathers?

OK. Who took our lunch?

Elena! Someone stole our castanets!

Princess Elena, we have a thief in our midst.

That sounds a little extreme.

Then why is everything suddenly going missing?

Look, I wish I knew what happened to all of your stuff, but-- Ooh!

What's happening?

Hey, that's me!

Wait, I was just eating those tacos!

Whoa, I'm having a flashback to a minute ago.

Eating my tacos!

Wearing my feathers!

Jumping on my castanets!

It's like your scepter has "truth-vision."

More like "tattle-tale-vision."

I guess we found the thief.

Heh-heh. Bad Flo. [chuckles]

So problem solved, then.

Everyone can get back to practicing like nothing's happened. OK?

[Flo sniffing] Aah! What's that smell?

Is it food? Please tell me it's food.

Because so far, food is, like, my favorite thing ever.

Well, Flo, every Carnaval season,

abuela asks the Royal Chef to prepare acaraje and pao de queijo.

[eats noisily]

I wish it was Carnaval season all year.

[both] Me, too!

[laughs] You girls remind me so much of your mother.

She loved Carnaval.

Almost as much as your father.

They would spend weeks designing and building the floats.

I remember.

They were working on the float the day Shuriki came.

-Who's Shuriki? -She was an evil sorceress.

A long time ago, she invaded our kingdom and...

cast a spell on my parents that...

Made them not alive?

So... you never got to see...

their Carnaval float?

No. I guess not.

That's the saddest thing I've ever heard.

But Cousin Esteban saw it.

-What? -You went with them that day, remember?

Ooh. What did it look like? Was it cuter than me?

I know that'd be pretty hard, but...

I, uh, I do not recall.

I had to leave on important royal business.

What could be more important than Carnaval?

-I do not remember, OK! -[Flo yelps]

[sighs] I'm sorry. It-It is all a blur.

Well, if you want to remember,

Elena could just use her tattle-tale-vision and show you.

-Flo! -No!

Esteban?

Where was Esteban when my parents were working on the float that day?

No!

The king and queen are on their way to the palace as we speak.

We can sneak you past the sentries through the city.

Yes, and then we can rule Avalor together...

Shuriki.

[gasps]

[gasps] Esteban?

You helped her?

I-I-I... Shuriki promised no one would be hurt.

How could you?

You betrayed us.

No, but-but let me explain.

Uh... what's happening?

[whimpering] Not the food!

Whoa!

Guards. Seize Chancellor Esteban and take him to the dungeon.

What?

I want him out of my sight.

Elena, no! Please!

[Flo shouting]
