Little Princess Sara (1985–…): Season 1, Episode 1 - Minchin joshi gakuin - full transcript
Miss Minchin...
This young lady grew up in India and is accustomed to living like a princess
Please take especially good care of her
Please do not worry, Solicitor Barrow
Up to now, my seminary has educated many young ladies of high social standing
Their parents have always written letters thanking us
This seminary was highly recommended. I am relieved to leave her in your care
In addition to all the previous requests so far
...there is another request that I would like to discuss
If it is within our power to do it, we can do it
Can you accommodate a personal carriage for this young lady?
Ah... A personal carriage?
Yes. She would need her own personal carriage
I have heard of wealthy people in India
However, this is the first time I have heard of a father...
..providing their children with their own carriage
Of course, we can accommodate the carriage
I will then proceed in procuring one
May I go up and see the young lady's room
We had it ready for your inspection today
Ah, I see
Amelia, is the bedroom ready?
Yes, Sister
May I go in?
This is her personal maid
Very good. This maid appears to be quite proper
Ah, that is unacceptable
What if the painting falls on the young lady's head while she is sleeping?
It will need to be moved. Paintings of flowers would be better suited for the young lady
Amelia!
Yes, Sister. I will immediately replace them
This bed...
It appears to be a bit too coarse for the young lady to sleep in
Yes, I will have it replaced...
Amelia! Yes, I will have it replaced...
Oh, do not worry. I will handle the expenses and the hired help
The father of this “princess” is a wealthy person in India
He only wants the best for his only daughter
May I ask where is the young lady and her father?
They arrived from India by ship three days ago
They are currently staying in the royal suite at the Savoy
The Savoy?
Sister, many members of royalty have stayed in that hotel!
Every day, Johann Strauss is conducting the orchestra there!
It's currently one of London's famous...
I know that!
Sara... you were out here
The weather outside is rather chilly. Be careful not to catch a cold!
Now, let us get ready
How warm!
It would be perfect if you were used to the cold
Yes, Papa
Sara! Sara!
That would be Big Ben, the clock tower
How nice!
I read about it in a book. It sounds exactly how I imagined it!
That would be Westminster Abbey, correct
Sara, you know London very well from your books
I'm very sorry! If there's anything you need, please call on me, Headmistress!
Where is James?
James! James!
Now you're here!
Ah! so... Headmistress, what do you want?
We have a new student arriving today
She is of special importance!
The two of you need to be especially careful
You will need to treat her better than the other parlor boarders
If she does not react well to your food, you will be dismissed, James!
Ah, yes
Well, we are here, Sara
"La mére..." (The mother...)
"Chez soi..." (His house...)
"Bonjour..." (Hello...)
Papa, is it okay for me to knock on the door?
That is a good idea
This will be your seminary. Go ahead
You are Captain Crewe's daughter, correct?
We have been expecting you
Come on in
Come this way
Let me introduce myself. I am Amelia, the headmistress’ younger sister
I teach here at this seminary
It is nice to meet you
I will now summon the headmistress. Please wait a moment
Sara, that teacher seems kind, does she?
Yes, Papa
Well... what kind of a person do you think is the headmistress?
I do not know. We will know when we meet her
She must wear glasses!
Oh?
In addition, she is tall, but she seems a bit scary
Ah. Why do you think so?
That is because Lady Meredith said so
I think every perfect teacher would be like that
Now, Sara... remember your manners when you greet her
Yes, of course!
I apologize for keeping you waiting
I am Miss Minchin, the headmistress of this seminary
It is a pleasure to meet you. I am Ralph Crewe
Hello, Headmistress. I am Sara Crewe
It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance
What a beautiful young lady!
It appears she is very well-spoken
It would be a great privilege to have her study here
I apologize for making so many unreasonable requests
I would like to thank you from the better of my heart
That is quite alright
As I understand it, it was hard for you since you had to do so due to circumstances
Ah... well, her mother passed away when she was four years old
Yes. I believe I know that already
I feel I am going to make her feel lonely again
However, I believe she would be happier studying in London...
...with good teachers instead of being in India
Yes, that is true. Parents always seek out for the happiness of their children
We have parents send students to this seminary from as far away as America
We are confident that we have a good course of study here
That is great, Sara
Ah... yes, Papa
Let me now show you the classroom and the living quarters. Please follow me
"Le pére..." (The father...)
"La fille..." (The girl...)
"Trés bien." (Very good.)
"Encore une fois.” (Repeat one more time.)
"Le pére..." (The father...)
"La fille..." (The girl...)
"Oui?" (Yes?)
"Men frére..." (My brother...)
In our seminary, we pride ourselves on our French curriculum
I see
If you will excuse me
Come with me
"Le pére..." (The father...)
"Men frére..." (My brother...)
"La fille..." (The girl...)
These are the students’ rooms
However, her room will be on the third floor. It has been specially prepared
Come this way
This room is my personal room
The room across from mine will be her room
That way, I can watch her better if I'm closer to her
I see
This is your room, Sara
Come in. It is this room
Oh my!
The two rooms are connected. The bedroom is over there
Please come this way
This is your personal maid, Mariette
I'm Mariette. I'm pleased to make your acquaintance
It is certainly an honor
Sara...
It is a pleasure to meet you
Mariette, is the room ready?
Yes, Headmistress!
Ah, very good
This room seems to be neat and orderly
I am happy that you are satisfied with our arrangements
However, as a girl's bedroom, I think it is missing something
Oh, pardon my rudeness
I merely feel that the furniture here is insufficient
Oh my... does she have that many possessions and clothing?
Since India has a hot climate, she is not acclimated to the colder climate here
I will be purchasing more clothing here in London
Is it possible to have maybe two or three more wardrobes in here?
Yes, that is quite possible
In addition, she would need a large bookcase
If you are talking about books, we do have a library here
Well, it is like this. She loves reading books, so we brought a let of books with us
She is a veritable bookworm
Since she was little, every time a now books is available, she has to read it
In addition, the books she reads are what adults read, such as history books and poetry
However, Headmistress... if she becomes too engrossed in her books...
..please encourage her to take her pony out to Hyde Park
You could also take her out to purchase a doll as well
I believe that a girl her age would be better playing with dolls more
Papa...
Hmm? What is it, Sara?
I just want Emily! You know that, right
Oh... who is Emily?
To tell you the truth, we are searching for a doll that we are going to purchase
Ah! She already chose a name for the doll
Yes. She has been thinking about having such a friend for some time now
It seems that she has a fertile imagination
I know. I often cannot even keep up with her fertile imagination
May I ask about the pony and the carriage
Ah... I believe it should be almost here
Solicitor Barrew said he looked all over London to find a cute pony
Thank you
Sara, have you chosen a name for your pony
Yes, Papa. His name will be “Jump”!
Ah. “Jump” it is
I see now
Ah... oh my...
Sister, the pony and the carriage have arrived
I see. Let us now go and take a look
However...
What is it, Amelia?
The carriage driver we requested could not come all of a sudden
A child has come in his place
W-What did you say?
It's Jump!
Papa, Jump is here!
What is going on here?
Why is your father not here?
Well, my father is injured and unable to move
Therefore... if it is possible, I would like to do this in my father's place
What are you talking about?
My father... would like to request that
How could that be possible?
The important young lady's personal pony and carriage is to be driven by a child?
Your father must be irresponsible!
I'm sorry
However, if I don't get this work, my father... and my mother is ill...
Please think about it. What would happen if the young lady had an incident?
Now, return home. I will find someone to replace you
Huh?
Papa!
It will definitely be fine!
My Jump is so cute and well-behaved!
Captain Crewe, we cannot have a child be the carriage driver
Miss Minchin, thank you for your concern for my daughter
However, may I speak with the young man for a moment?
Yes, go ahead
Please try to talk some sense into the young man
so, what is your name?
Uhh... my name is Peter
Peter, is it? What a wonderful name
However, Peter... you are aware that Miss Minchin's concerns are legitimate
Do you understand that?
Do you take care of this pony by yourself
how are you as a carriage driver?
My father taught me, and I am constantly practicing
Papa, this definitely will work!
He was able to ride the carriage over here
Yes! I can match up with the best carriage drivers!
Miss Minchin!
Based on my daughter's feelings, I would like to utilize this young man
Well... your daughter certainly has a generous soul
Thank you, Papa!
Miss Minchin, I am happy that you could accommodate all my requests
I will be able to return to India without any worries
Thank you very much
Yay! We'll get to work together!
Here we go!
So, how was it, Sara?
do you like the seminary?
I will study hard!
When I return to India, I will be able to take Mama's place at your side..
...at your evening parties and become the perfect companion for you!
Thank you, Sara
I am happy to hear that from you
Sara, you are a strong child
You will definitely do your best
Yes, Papa!
For the sake of not allowing Papa to worry about me when I am far away from India
...I have to suppress my own feelings of loneliness
Papa and I will only be together up until tomorrow
We are looking for my friend, Emily
During the time before he departs, my father and I went all over chilly London
The time that we meet is fast approaching
Next time on "A Little Princess Sara"!
