Marina is a mermaid who is in love with Prince Justin, a human prince from a kingdom on the shore. Marina saves Justin when he almost drowns after a shipwreck attack. Justin thinks a human princess saved him from drowning and therefore he gets engaged to her. Justin eventually remembers it was Marina who saved his life but by then Marina becomes a mermaid again.

00:08Share a little laughter down here with me
00:12Share all the wonders of the magical sea
00:17Share a little moment, an ocean of dreams
00:21Way down below the waves, there's so much to see
00:27I fell on shore, you live my love and inspiration
00:31A different world above the sea
00:36Someday we'll find a way to end the separation
00:40So together you and I can always be
00:45Share a little laughter, just you and me
00:48Above and below the warm and magical sea
00:54Share a little laughter
01:04In a tragic accident on a stormy sea
01:08Young Prince Justin of the Kingdom of Gandor swept overboard
01:12A beautiful princess from a nearby kingdom under the sea
01:16Felt something for the helpless human
01:18And swam to his rescue
01:20These were the days of magic
01:22Kindly sorcerers and wicked witches
01:25Casting mystical spells in the never-ending battle
01:28Between the forces of good and evil
01:31This is the background on which our adventure begins
02:01My goodness, what's happened?
02:04You poor man
02:06Are you hurt?
02:09Here, let me help you
02:11Oh, beautiful girl
02:12Save me
02:15What's that you say about a girl?
02:18Are you the one who saved my life?
02:21Oh, I suppose I did
02:23Thank you very much
02:24I'm Prince Justin
02:26What's your name?
02:27You're the prince?
02:28Well, my name is Cecily
02:29What a lovely name
02:41You want me to make you a human being
02:43Because you've fallen in love
02:45With that fat-headed Prince Justin
02:46Well, that's gonna cost you plenty, dearie
02:49Because I don't work for anyone for nothing
02:51Now, how much have you got?
02:53Anything
02:53Whatever you want
02:55Please, just make me a human being
02:57All right, my princess
02:59The price will be the loss of your beautiful voice
03:03Maybe I misunderstood when you said whatever I want
03:07If I must
03:09That'll be just splendid
03:11But if you're unable to marry him
03:13Within a single month
03:14Your penalty will be death
03:17That's because you're such a stupid little mermaid
03:19You won't be able to remain human for any longer than a single month
03:23But if anyone interferes
03:25Then the whole deal is off
03:28All right, then
03:29With my power it begins
03:31I cause this girl to shed her fins
03:50And she was able to walk and dance
03:53And lived happily ever after
03:55How I wish
04:00Marina
04:02And so it was that Princess Marina
04:05Was able to assume human form
04:07And enter the kingdom of Gandor
04:08In search of the young prince
04:10Who had stolen her heart
04:12Walking about on land was strange for her
04:14But as she explored this new world above the sea
04:18She found many beautiful things there
04:20Which filled her with delight
04:27But it seemed that Prince Justin
04:29Had not noticed her presence in the kingdom
04:31And Marina feared she might never meet him
04:39Marina?
04:40Your name is Marina, isn't it?
04:43My tutor told me your name
04:45And I wanted to invite you to my party
04:47We're celebrating my engagement
04:51Somehow I feel that we've met before somewhere
04:53It's the most odd feeling
04:56Is it possible that we've met?
05:03Well, Justin handled that beautifully
05:09That poor mermaid
05:11Don't be silly, Marina
05:12Of course you're going to the prince's engagement party
05:17How do you suppose the prince will become aware of you
05:20If he doesn't see you from time to time?
05:22Besides, this is the best opportunity for you to bring his memory back
05:25If you don't, you'll lose him
05:30I'm sorry
05:32I really am
05:33I'm a big loud mouth
05:35And I'm always putting my nose in where it's not wanted
05:37And making you cry
05:38But this might be your only chance to make him remember
05:41That it was you who pulled him out of the ocean
05:43And put the breath of life back into his body
05:49You look lovely in that gown, Cecily
05:51Do I really, Your Majesty?
05:54Of course, my dear
05:55And do call me Mother
05:57Yes
05:58But good heavens, Mother
06:00Tell me what troubles you, my little pet
06:03I'm just curious, ma'am
06:05That person has been hanging about the palace
06:08Like a member of the royal family
06:10Are you talking about Marina?
06:12I believe that's her name, yes
06:14I certainly hope she doesn't expect to come to the engagement party
06:18I'm afraid Justin insists on it
06:21He's formed quite an attachment to her, you know
06:23Well, it's certainly his privilege to invite whatever riff-raff he wants
06:28But I don't understand it
06:29Now, we mustn't be undemocratic about the peasants
06:32I'm sure if the prince invited her
06:34She must be very nice, dear
06:36In an ordinary way
06:51Well, aren't you going to do anything to help Marina, you old barnacle?
06:55Can I help it if people insist on behaving stupidly?
06:59Well
07:02Justin's engaged
07:03And do a flippity-jibbit without a brain cell working
07:06Because he thinks she's the one who pulled him out of the ocean
07:09And she's taking all the bows because she wants to be a princess
07:14I know what happened
07:15But what are you and I going to do about it, huh?
07:18We're not going to do anything about it
07:21It's up to Justin to remember who saved it
07:23What if he doesn't?
07:24Then that will be the end of it
07:26Poor Marina
07:26What'll become of her?
07:28If I could do magic, I'd certainly try to save her
07:32I've made a vow to never interfere in the matters of human beings with my sorcery
07:36So there is nothing I can do
07:37Of course, if no one broke any rules
07:40There'd be no point in having them, would there?
07:50You and I are the only ones who can help, you know
07:58I'm sorry, but I can do nothing about it
08:22This is all wrong
08:23Marina saved
08:38Remember, Justin
08:40You must remember
08:52Ladies and gentlemen, a toast
08:54To my son and his bride
08:56Long life and happiness
08:58To the bride and groom
09:02But it isn't official just yet
09:21Justin
09:21Oh, beg pardon?
09:23Is something bothering you, Justin?
09:25Me?
09:26Bothering me?
09:27Yes
09:27You were about to say something
09:29I was?
09:30I was?
09:55It was Marina all the time
09:57Hmm?
10:10Marina!
10:11Justin, come back!
10:13Justin!
10:14What's the matter with you, my boy?
10:16This is your engagement party
10:19No, father
10:20How can it be?
10:22It's missing a bride
10:24Mine just left
10:31Marina, come back, Marina
10:52Well, why don't you pull Marina out?
10:56I'm afraid we're too late now
10:58My swimming days are past
11:00And we could never reach her with natural means
11:03Marina's beyond my help this time
11:05Let me get this straight
11:07Your policy is never to use magic to interfere in human affairs, right?
11:12Mm-hmm
11:12But Marina's not really human
11:15Or am I wrong?
11:17So that rule doesn't really apply to her, does it?
11:20You'd make a magnificent attorney, Ridley
11:22Well, I like you too, Ansem
11:24But don't you think we better do something for Marina before it's too late?
11:29Very well, I'll leave it to you
11:31Okay
11:33Do whatever you have to do
11:35Alley-oop
11:36Invalidatis mortis
11:44My poor mermaid princess
11:50Help!
11:51Someone, help Marina!
12:08Yay!
12:10The witch's spell is broken
12:12She's all right
12:13My prince
12:14My prince
12:15What's happened to me?
12:17You're talking
12:18I can't believe it
12:20You're gonna be all right
12:21It's wonderful
12:22Hooray!
12:23Ha-ha-ha!
12:37Good morning, you gloominess
12:38Are you gonna look at the ocean until it dries up?
12:42Leave me alone, Chauncey
12:44Bug someone else
12:45My, we are in a bad mood
12:47Breakfast not settling well
12:49The royal dreams were not pleasant last night
12:52It was Marina who saved my life
12:55She's a mermaid
12:57And I behaved so stupidly toward her
13:01My happiness is gone
13:02Huh?
13:04A mermaid?
13:05My prince suddenly believes in mermaids?
13:07There she is
13:14Oh
13:16Marina
13:18Marina
13:21Marina
13:23Marina
13:38Prince Justin, please come inside before you become seriously ill.
13:55Good morning. Marina, why don't we take a picnic basket and go to the Undersea Mountains?
14:00No. I want to be alone. Please go without me, Winnie.
14:12Couldn't you ring the doorbell before barging in?
14:16Tell me something, Ridley.
14:18What?
14:19Now that Prince Justin is married, is he living happily ever after?
14:24Well, what gave you the idea that Prince Justin was married?
14:28What are you telling me? You mean he's not?
14:31Oh, no. He remembered it was Marina that pulled him out of the water and realized he was in love
14:36with her.
14:37Ridley, why didn't you tell me before?
14:49Ridley, why didn't you tell me before?
15:08Prince Justin.
15:21There's something I must talk to you about, Anselm.
15:24Of course, Prince Justin. But I was just about to sit down to dinner.
15:28Perhaps you and your page would care to join me.
15:31No, thank you. You see, I need your advice.
15:37I've fallen in love with Marina. I want to be with her, Anselm.
15:41But you see, I can't. Marina is a mermaid.
15:48Please, tell me if it could be possible at all for me to be with her.
15:53But I'm only an old man with no special talent, Justin.
15:58Romance is the province of much younger men with fire in their bones and music on their lips.
16:03I'm terribly sorry, but there's nothing I can do about this young Prince.
16:07Well, there's no hope then.
16:11Come on, Chauncey.
16:13Uh, there might be one thing that may help, Justin.
16:16Huh?
16:17I met a ragged old peddler many years ago who had what he described as a great potion with singular
16:23magic properties,
16:24which he recommended for everything from emphysema to breathing underwater.
16:28Do you still have it?
16:29Oh, I'm sure I must have. Let me look around a bit.
16:36I believe it was in this room the last time I saw it.
16:44Prognosticatus beneficicus immundi romantici benedictus onselmi pae.
16:53I knew it was still around here someplace, Justin.
16:56According to the peddler, you need to take only a small drink of this to enable you to breathe underwater.
17:03Now I'll be able to see Marina.
17:06We'll be together for as long as we want.
17:09Perhaps not as long as you'd like.
17:11According to the peddler, you can only take advantage of the potion once a day,
17:15and the effects only last for an hour.
17:18An hour? That's plenty.
17:20Come on, Chauncey, let's go.
17:23My goodness, I don't remember any peddler coming by with a magic potion.
17:27Did anybody ask you?
17:29Well, your policy does seem a bit flexible when it comes to Justin.
17:33I base every case on its merits.
17:36Believe me, I understand.
17:37As you've already pointed out, if nobody ever broke the rules, well...
17:42There'd be no point in having any.
17:44Right!
17:53Marina!
17:54I have the most wonderful news.
17:57I just found out that Prince Justin didn't marry Cecily after all,
18:00and that he realizes he's really been in love with you all the time.
18:04What?
18:05Well, no matter.
18:07I'm a mermaid and Prince Justin is a human being.
18:10My dreams are never going to come true, Winnie.
18:13Don't give up yet, Marina.
18:16A dream is something you never give up on.
18:19Come on, follow me!
18:20Where are you going?
18:21Just come on!
18:23We'll make that dream come true yet.
18:26Hedwig helped you once.
18:27Maybe she'll do it again.
18:31Well, here goes, Chauncey.
18:36Ah, your turn now.
18:38I think I'll just pass, Justin.
18:41Come on, drink up.
18:42Yuck!
18:45Okay, let's go.
18:46Hey, wait a minute now.
18:48I never learned how to swim.
18:49You don't have to know how.
18:50Just follow me.
19:05Help me!
19:06Huh?
19:06Oh.
19:09Oh, well.
19:10I guess I don't have to know how to swim, do I?
19:14So, you have the nerve to come back here for help,
19:17after I made you a human being out of the kindness of my heart,
19:20and now you're a mermaid again?
19:22My answer is no, and I may even punish you for making me look foolish.
19:27Why, you vicious old hag!
19:29Keep your stupid magic!
19:31Let it go, Winnie.
19:33I'm sorry.
19:34We won't bother you again.
19:37I don't know why you apologize to that old crone.
19:41Crone?
19:43Maybe I should demand a little more respect than I'm forgetting, Mickey.
19:47How do you like my lovely flowers?
19:52That grumpy old Harriton gives me the creeps every time we come down here.
20:16Oh, no!
20:19No!
20:21Somebody please help!
20:24Marina!
20:25Justin, help us!
20:33Marina!
20:34Just in big way!
20:45You block it!
20:46What's the big idea?
20:47What a moron!
20:49Are you trying to bring my house down around my ears?
20:51Get out of here!
21:04Marina.
21:06I'll find a way for us to be together forever.
21:09I promise you this.
21:11Yes, Justin.
21:14Hey, I'm really getting better at swimming.
21:17Why don't you come in?
21:18Oh!
21:18Ah!
21:19You come along with me, young man.
21:21They want privacy.
21:45You come along with me, Andy?
