I don t know if
 

Now, now...
 

Mustn t get cold fins!
 

Don t be shy, Ariel darling!

Of course! I did my very best to save her.
 

You did? But Father told me

He doesn t understand me.
 

Oh, but I do, dumpling. We re so very alike, you and I  gals with ambition! Now tell me absolutely everything.

Can you do that?
 

My dear, sweet child  it s what I live for: to help unfortunate merfolk like yourself. Poor souls with no one else to turn to...
