[ominous music]



[coughing]

[exhales]

- Not again.

Gretta: Did you remember
to pack your night clothes

and your socks?

Baldric: Yes, yes,

yes.

Gretta: And your tooth
cleaning brush?

- Everything is ready,
but this is folly.



I cannot go
and leave you unattended.

Gretta: Nonsense.

Prince Chlodwig and
Sir Dwight will attend to me.

Baldric: But, Highness...

Gretta: The assembly
of the magician's guild meets

once only every...

Baldric: Five hundred years.

- You must go.

- [frustrated sigh]

[door squeaks]

Dwight: Oh, hey Gretta,

hey Baldric.

You ready for your trip?

Baldric: Yes.



I must be off.

Dwight: You guys know
about this note

on the front of your door?

[door shuts]

Gretta: What note?

Oh, it's addressed
to you, Chlodwig.

- Is it?

- Hey man, soundin' good.

- My first performance
is tomorrow.

You will attend, Sir Dwight?

Dwight: Wouldn't miss it, buddy.

Baldric: I take my leave
of you, Highness.

Gretta: Good journey, Baldric.

- See you Thursday.

Have fun.

Baldric: Protect the princess
with your very life,

nay your very soul.

Dwight: Will do.

[slap]

[grunt]

Chlodwig: 'Tis a challenge,
written in most rude language.

Gretta: What manner
of challenge?

Chlodwig: I've been called
out to defend my title

as champion of the hammer throw.

- By whom?

Chlodwig: It doesn't say,

but the contest is
at mid-day.

I must be off at once.

Dwight: Hey, hang on,

we promised Baldric
that we'd stay with Gretta.

Gretta: And so you shall.

We shall all go
to the contest.

I do so love a hammer throw.

Chlodwig: Brilliant.

Baldric couldn't possibly
object to a brief excursion

into the woods.

- Uh.

- Oh, don't be such
a mubble-fubble, Sir Dwight.

[smack]

We promised we'd stay together,
and so we will.

Let's away.

- [sigh]

[theme music]

Dwight: Okay, so
about a thousand years ago,

there was this princess, Gretta.

And she was in big trouble

because she had lots of enemies

and not a lot of friends.



So her court magician, Baldric
cast the champion spell.

It put everyone in the woods
to sleep

until a champion would come,

break the spell
with his kiss,

and deal with Gretta's
big, scary enemies.

But that guy, never showed up.

Instead...

Ah!

[kiss]

they got me.



Ah!



Ow!





[thwacking]

Dwight: Are you sure you know
where you're going?

Chlodwig:
The challenge was clear,

we're to meet
upon the great knoll,

just north of the muddy peat,

two furlongs
from the brambly oak.

- It's almost mid-day.

- We must make haste.

Dwight: I can't make
much more haste, man.

Oh.

Uh.

Chlodwig: There,
the brambly oaks.

[bird calls]

[crunch]

Dwight: Ah!

[crash]

[coughing]

Dwight: What?

Is everybody okay?

[coughing]

Dwight: [screaming]

Snakes!

Snakes everywhere!

[screaming]

- They're not poisonous.

Dwight: How do you know?

That one there,
that one looks poisonous.

What is it?

Red touches black,
you're dead Jack,

or yellow touches red,
you're dead Fred?

[thwap]

Ah!

Dwight: What?

Agnet: Oh, dear me.

Poor, hapless soul,

wherefore art thou
at the bottom

of this deep pit full of snakes?

Chlodwig: Oh no.

It's her.

Dwight: Hey there,
is this your rope thing?

- 'Tis a braid of hair.

Agnet: Is that you,
Prince Chlodwig?

[Dwight yelping]

- Agnet!

- Oh! My darling.

Chlodwig: You go too far.

[Dwight making
panicked noises]

Agnet: There are no lengths

I wouldn't go for you,
my love.

- Who is this maiden?

Chlodwig: The scourge
of my life,

the bane of my existence.

- I've come to rescue you.

Dwight: Thank you,
thank you, thank you.

Chlodwig: Absolutely no.

Agnet: Absolutely yes.

I shall save you from this pit
of deadly snakes.

Gretta: Deadly?

- Very deadly.

- Red touches black,
you're dead, Jack.

Agnet: Chlodwig, my sweet,

simply grab hold
of my long, luscious braid

and pull yourself out
of the pit to safety.

- I love this plan.

Agnet: That we may be married
and live happily ever after.

Chlodwig: I will never
marry you, Agnet.

[thwap]

Dwight: Maybe dump the girl

after we get out
of this snake pit?

- But you are
my prince charming.

Gretta: The snakes
are growing restless.

Stabilize your head, maiden.

We are climbing up.

- Is that a girl?

- I am
Princess Gretta the Besieged.

Agnet: [gasp] Gretta?

Ugh, why did you bring Gretta?

Unhand my braid,
this is a plan for my prince,

not for you.

Dwight: Wait, you,
you planned this?

- See, see how much I love you?

Chlodwig: She is out
of her tiny mind.

You cannot believe,

was it you who sent this
challenge of the hammer throw

on the great knoll?

- It was.

Gretta: And filled this pit
with deadly snakes?

- Oh yes.

- And got us to fall into it?

- All to prove my love
for you, my darling prince.

Dwight: Wow.

You think about the logistics
of actually pulling this off--

Chlodwig: What kind
of a lunatic

would imperil someone's life
to prove their love?

Agnet: Chlodwig, my sweet,
start climbing,

we are on a schedule today.

Chlodwig: I suggest instead

that we live out our lives
down here.

'Tis a comfortable pit
of ample size

and well- stocked
with snake meat.

- [sigh]

- Mm.

[exhales]

- Ow!

Ow.

[crash]

[coughing]

- This, this is all your fault.

- My fault?

Agnet: Yes, you, and
your immense poundage.

[Agnet screaming]

[Agnet and Dwight screaming]

Gretta: Get off me!

Agnet: You have made
a vile mess

of my perfectly lovely plan.

Dwight: What exactly was
your perfectly lovely plan?

Agnet: Oh, well the handsome
prince climbs up

the beautiful maiden's hair.

Dwight: Woo!

Agnet: The way it happens
in all my books.

Chlodwig:
Of all the potty ideas.

Agnet: But this ton
of princess has gone

and ruined everything

and now we shall all die
of snakebite.

Gretta: I think not!

Agnet: Oh,

ah,

oh.

Ah!

[squeals]

My hair!

Gretta: [grunt]

Dwight: Nice.

[grunting]

- Okay, I'm out.

Ah!

[grunting]

[coughing]

Agnet: Chlodwig, my sweet,

now that we are free
from the snake pit,

we may move on
to the wedding plans.

- Agnet,

I would sooner marry
the snake named Jack!

Dwight: Dude, come on!

That was kinda harsh.

Agnet: You!

You spoiled my snake pit, you,

you mangled my hair,

do you have any idea how long
it took me to grow this braid?

Gretta: Lay a hand on me,
you lunatic,

and I'll chop it off.

Dwight: No, no, she won't.

- [growls]

Dwight: No, you won't.

Agnet: Why does Chlodwig love
you so, you horrid princess.

Gretta: He doesn't love me.

- He doesn't?

- No, no, he doesn't.

Listen, Agnet.

Chlodwig is
a complicated guy,

with a lot of deep feelings

that are sometimes hard
to express.

- [sighs]

Oh, do keep talking
about Chlodwig.

He is my favorite subject.

Dwight: Well, here's the thing
about Chlodwig.

He just sees you as a friend.

- A friend?

Dwight: Yeah.

Hey, there will come a time
when you realize

that this was for the best.

- So, my prince--

Dwight:
Is still out there, Agnet.

He's waiting for you
to find him

and he's hoping you
won't give up on him.

[bird call]

- I understand.

Dwight: Good.

Yeah, great.

Great.

Chin up, off you go!

Best of luck.

Best foot forward,

go get 'em tiger.

Gretta: Goodbye.

Dwight: Oh!

Bye.

- [giggles]

Gretta: Oh.

Dwight: Hey man.

Chlodwig: You are just
in time.

I believe I follow the man

with the embarrassingly
puny mandolin.

[ukulele plays]

M. C.: Let's give Liam
here a big hand.

[applause]

- All right, next up,
please welcome Chodwedge.

Chlodwig: Ah, 'tis my moment.

Gretta: Hm.

- I dedicate this song
to Princess Gretta,

my former betrothed,

and to Sir Dwight,

my brother in the order
of Guy Club.

Dwight: Woo!

[tepid applause]

[slap]

M. C.: Uh, uh--

[bagpipe moaning]

That's uh, that's gonna be
a tough act to follow.

Agnet: Did you--

[all gasp]

love the love song
I wrote for you, my prince?

Would you like
to get married now?

- Not now,
not ever Agnet.

Agnet: Oh, fluffy stuff.

If there is one thing a maiden
in a tower must learn

it is patience.

You have to kiss
a lot of frogs

before the frog you want
wants to marry

[slap] you.

- You kiss frogs?

Agnet: A maiden must do
what a maiden must do.

[gasp]

[magical sounds]

Gretta: Chlodwig!

Dwight: He's a frog!

[ribbit]

- One kiss from me

and he will be back
to his handsome self,

and much more ready
to get married.

[ribbit]

[ribbit]

Agnet: [gasp] No,
no, no, no, no.

- Chlodwig!

Agnet: No! No!

He's my prince!

No! No!

He's mine.

[ribbit]

Chlodwig!

My love!

Gretta: Chlodwig!

[thump]

[ribbit]

Dwight: I am so sorry.

Are you okay?

[girls fighting]

Mr. Dale?

[crow caws]

Mr. Dale: Do you see that crow?

Gretta: Chlodwig!

Dwight: Yeah.

Mr. Dale: So,
you would say it's real.

It's a real crow!

Dwight: Mr. Dale, are you okay?

- It's following me,
everywhere I go.

I have to get home.

It's almost dark.

And I have no idea what
happens when it's dark.

[cawing]

Dwight: Uh- huh.

Mr. Dale: We have tampered
with dark forces

that will be our undoing.

[ribbit]

Agnet: Oh! Dang it!

Give me my Frogwig back.

Gretta: You do not seriously
intend to kiss this?

[ribbit]

- Ew.

Chlodwig:
Off with your foul lips!

- But I--

Dwight: Look,

I think what Chlodwig is
trying to say is--

Chlodwig: I find you hideous.

Dwight: It's not you.

Chlodwig: It is you.

Dwight: He's just not looking
for a relationship right now.

Chlodwig: Because
you are grotesque.

Dwight: If he's being
completely honest,

he's not into girls
that put his life in danger.

Chlodwig: Especially

when they are
heinously disgusting.

Dwight: Stop.

Close your mouth.

Chlodwig: Honestly,
I tried to be nice.

Dwight: I hope
that makes sense, Agnet.

Agnet: Of course.

My prince wants
to be the hunter,

not the prey.

[door opens]

Dwight: [clears throat]

- What's amiss?

- Note.

My darling Chlodwig,

I have gone to orc territory
to meet certain death.

Chlodwig: Orc territory.

Dwight:
That's a bad place, right?

- Mm-hm.

Dwight: Know that
my final thoughts are of you,

Agnet.

Ouch.

Chlodwig: Orc territory is vast.

Who knows
where she could have gone.

Dwight: Oh, it looks like
she drew you a little map.

Dwight: How will we know
we're in orc territory?

Maybe a sign or something?

[a man singing]

Gretta: Sh.

[man continues
to sing in Italian]

[thwa-a-ang]

- Who goes there?

[birds calling]

Principessa,
and the champion boy.

Could it be fate?

Gretta: Uh!

Dwight: Hey, hey,

hey.

Jacopo, how you been man?

Chlodwig: You know this villain?

- Who do you call villain?

Gretta: You did try
to steal my throne.

Dwight: That was
a long time ago.

- I admit I tried and I failed.

I am bound by the rules
of chivalry.

Chlodwig: And by the rules
of chivalry,

release me from this tree,
I am a prince.

- Oh, why such a rush, eh?

You are too tense.

Your face is squished
like an angry little pig.

- How dare you, peasant!

- Fortune smiles
on the patient soul,

does she not?

Now, here we are,
together once more,

but this time, I am ready!

Ha!

Dwight: Dude.

You've been practicing.

- ì.

Grazie.

Chlodwig: Enough tomfoolery,
out of the way, juggling jester.

Jacopo: I do not jest,
piggy little prince.

Chlodwig: Ha!

[metal clanking]

[grunting]

Jacopo: I demand a rematch.

Dwight: Can he do that?

Gretta: By the rules
of chivalry,

Jacopo can demand
a single rematch.

Agnet: Help me!

Jacopo: What was that?

Chlodwig: With any luck,
a maiden being roasted by orcs.

Dwight: Dude!

- What maiden?

Agnet: Hello! Anybody?!

- The little blister,

I have half a mind
to let the orcs do their worst.

Jacopo: What kind
of prince are you?

A damsel cries out
in distress.

- Pfft.

- [sound of shock]

Dwight: So...

Agnet: Anybody?

Dwight: Jacopo,
are there any rules of chivalry

about a damsel in distress?

- Hundreds.

- There's no higher
expression of chivalry

than to give aid
to a damsel in distress.

- ì.

Agnet: Anyone!

Help me!

Gretta: But Prince Chlodwig
could easily save her.

Chlodwig: Ugh.

Dwight: Yeah, we're right
in the middle

of this bottle flip
rematch thing,

it's kind of important.

Gretta: Very important.

Dwight: Yeah.

Agnet: Help!

Help!

Help me!

- [grunt] The bottles can wait!

I will save the damsel,

you may go home,
pig-faced prince.

[Agnet screams]

Chlodwig: Pig- faced prince,
halt at once,

that is my damsel
and my rescue!

Jacopo: No, she is mine!

I call the dibs!

Agnet: Somebody help me!

[grunts]

Chlodwig: [growls] Agnet!

- Chlodwig!

Jacopo: Have no fear, maiden,
I have come to rescue you.

Agnet: Hurry!

The orcs are on their way.

Chlodwig: And the earth
is a big blue ball

circling a big yellow ball.

Dwight: Uh, Chlodwig--

Jacopo: I will have you free
in but a moment.

Chlodwig: I was here first,
you scully.

- You are a brute,

not worthy to rescue a maiden
so beautiful as she.

- [chuckles] Thank you.

- I will rescue
whatever maiden I choose,

beautiful or otherwise.

- Oh, I would like
to see you try.

- How in the world
did you hoist yourself up

in this net?

- I didn't.

- What do you mean?

Agnet: Well, I intended to tie
myself to yon tree

and wait for my prince
to come rescue me.

Jacopo: [background] your
squealing voice.

Chlodwig: [background] Oh
yes, he--

- Of course you did.

Agnet: But then I stepped
in this trap.

Gretta: Orcs.

- Let a real man save
the fair damsel.

Chlodwig: No one saves
the fair damsel but I.

[grunts]

- But how can you
when your nose is bleeding?

- My nose is not
bleeding, I don't--

Ah!

[thump]

[metal ringing]

Chlodwig: You blaggard!

Jacopo: Beautiful maiden,
behold your rescuer!

[fighting noises]

Agnet: Oh kind sirs,
I pray you do not fight over me.

[metal ringing]

Stop it.

Stop it, I say.

[fighting noises continue]

Stop it.

Stop it.

Stop,

stop,

stop it, I say.

[laughing]

[thump]

Jacopo: Here is a squeal.

- Oo.

Jacopo: Signorina bella,
you are safe now.

Dwight: I don't know
about safe.

Gretta: The orcs that set
this trap will be here

at any moment.

Jacopo: Then, fly away with me,

[kiss]

dolcezza.

- Anywhere, my prince.

- Come marry me.

Agnet: Oh, you are so noble,

so chivalrous,

and that accent.

- Oh, what about my accent?

Cara mia.

- [squeal and giggle]

Hurry my prince,
we are on a schedule today.

Jacopo: Goodbye
baby-faced monkey,

say hello to the fat man
and my favorite wrinkly lady.

Dwight: Will do!

Gretta: They are perfect
for each other.

Dwight: Right?

Chlodwig: I give it six months.

[laughing]

Chlodwig: My next song
will be a ballad

about my many deeds of valor.

I've just written
the first verse.

Dwight: Oh, no, no!

Um, don't spoil it for us.

Baldric: [sigh of exhaustion]

Gretta: Oh! Baldric!

Dwight: Hey.

[Baldric grunts]

Dwight: How did your
magician's guild assembly go?

Baldric: I know now
why they only hold it

once every five hundred years.

Oh.

Oh, ah.

Mm.

[crow cawing]

[spooky music]

[spooky music]

[metal ringing]

- Show yourself, pretender.

[footsteps]

Aldred: I am bound
to obey a tovenaar summons,

but you are no tovenaar.

I am the only remaining.

- No more.
