00:11🎵
00:23For a whole week, Snorkmaiden had been curled up on the sofa, reading fairy tales.
00:28It's a lovely day, and at last Moomin has persuaded her to come out for a walk in the Lonely Mountains.
00:39Oh, it's beautiful up here. Aren't you glad you came now?
00:43Ahh.
00:45This is much better than fairy tales, isn't it, Snorkmaiden?
00:51Oh, look, Moomin. It's Edelweiss.
00:54Hmm? Edelweiss?
00:58No, it isn't. That doesn't grow here at all.
01:01I'm sure it is. I know what it looks like.
01:04I'm sorry, but it's not.
01:08Oh, it's just like in Heidi.
01:10No, it's not. It's just a daisy.
01:13Oh, come on. I want to pick it.
01:15Oh, no. It's too dangerous.
01:17I know, then. You can do it. You're my boyfriend, aren't you, Moomin?
01:23Well, I suppose we could climb down there, but I promise you it's not Edelweiss.
01:27That only grows in the Alps, and they're hundreds of miles away.
01:31I know it's Edelweiss.
01:37Be careful.
01:38They don't care about danger in fairy tales.
01:41That's why they call them fairy tales, silly.
01:45Fair Princess, please accept this, my humble offering.
01:49Thank you, brave knight.
01:51You were right, Moomin. This isn't Edelweiss.
01:54See, I told you.
01:56It's going to be hard to get down from here, you know.
01:59Can't we go back the way we came?
02:02Well, I think it'll be easier to try to get to that path.
02:06If you say so.
02:09If you say so.
02:14It's nearer, anyway.
02:16And better than going up.
02:18I'm surprised you're such a good climber.
02:23Oh, royalty is good at practically everything.
02:27Snorkmaiden!
02:34Snorkmaiden!
02:38Snorkmaiden!
02:48Snorkmaiden!
02:52Let me see. Six petals.
02:59What was that? A giant snowball?
03:02It can't be. It isn't winter.
03:04Oh well, nothing of interest to me.
03:06Where was I?
03:10Mr. Hemulen, has Snorkmaiden just gone past you?
03:14Snorkmaiden? No, all I've seen going past is a very large snowball.
03:18That was Snorkmaiden.
03:20But she's not made of snow.
03:24Stop! Snorkmaiden, stop!
03:37Snorkmaiden!
03:43Snorkmaiden!
03:46Oh, praise the booble, she's still breathing.
03:48She's just knocked herself out.
03:58Oh, Moomin, what's happened to her?
04:00She's unconscious.
04:02What are you trying to do?
04:04I want to get her home to Mama.
04:07Difficult. She should lose a bit of weight.
04:10Perhaps she'd come round if we splashed cold water on her face.
04:15There's nothing to fetch it in.
04:19If you cut some bark off a tree trunk, you could make a small container.
04:24What a good idea. If you stay here, I'll go and do that.
04:31Wake up, Snorkmaiden.
04:35It's fine.
04:46Oh, that's cold.
04:54Has she come round yet, Mr. Hemulen?
04:56No.
04:57Okay.
05:00Oh, good. It's working.
05:02How are you feeling, Snorkmaiden?
05:04Are you all right, Snorkmaiden?
05:08Where am I?
05:10We're still up in Lonely Mountains.
05:13Who am I?
05:15Why, Royal Highness, the Princess of Lonely Mountains.
05:20What? A princess?
05:22Oh, yes, of course.
05:24And who are you?
05:26I am the Prince of Lonely Mountains.
05:29Oh, yeah?
05:30Oh, yeah.
05:31With that ridiculous shape?
05:33No. A jester, perhaps.
05:35You what?
05:38You there, do not laugh.
05:50I thought you were a princess.
05:53I think the poor girl must have lost her memory.
05:57Of course not. She's just pretending.
06:01One does not whisper with royalty present, do you hear?
06:05So sorry, Your Royal Highness.
06:10A poor crafter's cabin.
06:13This is your castle, ma'am.
06:15Royalty doesn't live in shacks.
06:17Snorkmaiden.
06:19Stop calling us that. It's very rude.
06:22Oh, forgive me.
06:24Our royal castle is elsewhere, is it not?
06:28What?
06:29That must be a hunting lodge.
06:31Of course that's what it is.
06:33Good. We accept that.
06:44Are you two going to tell me what you're so busy looking at?
06:50Send a maid to my room, my good man.
06:54A maid?
06:58My good man?
07:05Papa, have you seen Snorkmaiden?
07:08Yes, up there.
07:14Mama?
07:17Mama, please will you go and have a word with Snorkmaiden?
07:21Have you been quarreling?
07:23Oh, no. It's just that she fell and banged her head,
07:26and now she thinks she's a royal princess.
07:28What?
07:37Ah, Nanette. Come here, please.
07:40Nanette? I'm Boominmama.
07:44Oh, we're too weary for your foolish jokes, girl.
07:47Oh, we are very tired indeed, Nanette.
07:50Please bring our silk nightie with the hand-embroidered swans and clowns.
07:55Then you may go.
08:01How is she, Mama?
08:03All right, I'm sure.
08:05But she seems convinced she's a princess.
08:07Sounds as if it's dangerous, doesn't it, Mama?
08:09Oh, I don't think so.
08:11I was only joking when I called her a princess.
08:14I'm very glad you didn't call her an opera singer.
08:17Is Snorkmaiden asleep now?
08:19Oh, yes, in a nightgown with crowns and swans embroidered on it.
08:23And another thing, Boomin, she wants a canopy put up immediately.
08:26What's that?
08:28Oh, a fancy cover over the bed
08:30that's draped in silks and velvets and tassels.
08:33Oh.
08:34She was very upset because there wasn't one there already.
08:37It mightn't be necessary.
08:39Snorkmaiden should have come back by the time she wakes up.
08:41Why don't we wait and see?
08:43She might be fine after a rest.
08:45I sure hope so.
08:47But what do we do if it hasn't come back?
08:50Let's think about that if it happens.
08:52We might not have to build that canopy.
08:54Let me try it.
08:56Try what?
08:57To get Snorkmaiden's memory back. What else?
08:59Oh, how?
09:00Well, I think that if she sees me,
09:02she'll remember me and then she'll remember everything else, too.
09:05Don't be silly, little my.
09:07If she doesn't remember me, why should she remember you, eh?
09:10Simple, because I'm unforgettable.
09:13There is that, I suppose.
09:21She's still fast asleep.
09:23Well, I'm glad we made the canopy anyway.
09:25It looks really great, doesn't it?
09:30Oh, look, she's opening her eyes.
09:34Are you awake?
09:36Get up, Snorkmaiden. Come on.
09:38Let's go down to the beach.
09:40And who is that person?
09:42Come on, you remember me.
09:44I warn you, if you don't, you'll be sorry.
09:46Oh, quite amusing.
09:48Ah, so you remember me now?
09:50Of course we do.
09:52There you are, I told you.
09:54Who am I then?
09:56Well, you're another Court Jester, of course.
10:02Stop it, little my.
10:04Court Jester!
10:08Oh, very funny.
10:10She's a better clown than the other one.
10:12You can perform at our wedding.
10:14Your wedding?
10:34Hi, Stinky.
10:36What are you doing here?
10:38Moomin asked me to come over to Moominhouse
10:40and propose to some princess.
10:42Moomin's lost his marbles as well, then.
10:44I think he wanted Stinky as a contrast.
10:46You what?
10:48You mean to tell me you're both my rivals
10:50for the hands of the royal princess?
10:52Well, it's not very original.
10:54But in order to win the princess
10:56and half her kingdom, Stinky,
10:58you'll need to solve three riddles.
11:00Hey, that's great.
11:02What's this kingdom like?
11:04All right, suitor number one,
11:06you may now enter.
11:08Oh, that's me.
11:20Oh!
11:22Oh, hi, princess.
11:24How are you doing?
11:26Jester, is this man a suitor?
11:28He is.
11:30I fear he does not treat us with respect.
11:32Forgive him, your highness.
11:34He is from a foreign land
11:36and does not know the ways of your kingdom.
11:38Hmm.
11:40Well, all right.
11:42Very well.
11:44Here is the first riddle.
11:46Are you ready?
11:48Fire away.
11:50Now then, listen.
11:52What is it that is yellow, has four legs, and sings?
11:54Oh, dear.
11:56An unusual canary?
11:58With four legs, you nincompoop.
12:00I don't know any birds with four legs.
12:02Who said it was a bird?
12:04All right, then.
12:06What's the answer, Snorkmaiden?
12:08He shows no respect.
12:10Throw him into a dungeon
12:12and give him no food.
12:14Your highness, he is temporarily out of his mind
12:16after his long journey here.
12:18Hang on. I'm not out of my mind.
12:20He is.
12:22So what's the answer? That's what I want to know.
12:24Silence. It does not concern you.
12:26We believe you to be of lowly birth.
12:34Sorry about this, Snufkin.
12:36Don't worry.
12:40Hmm. No Sir Galahad, but not bad.
12:42I am honored to be here,
12:44your royal highness.
12:46He'll do.
12:48An easy riddle to start. Here it is.
12:50First, what is the number
12:52of which we think...
12:54Take your time.
12:56Two?
12:58Bravo, Gallant Knight. That is correct.
13:00Now listen. What is the word upon our mind?
13:02Love.
13:04That's amazing!
13:06Truly, the suitor has brains as well as looks.
13:08Question three.
13:10There are two numbers on our mind.
13:12What do they add up to?
13:14Answer carefully, for it could unlock your princess's heart.
13:1621.
13:18Oh.
13:20Was that right, too?
13:22It was 22.
13:30My heart is heavy.
13:32Perchance we should have said it was correct.
13:34He was rather cute, was he not, Jester?
13:38It's your turn now, Stinky.
13:40Well, I suppose that even half of Snork's house
13:42would be something.
13:44Think she'll ever get her memory back?
13:46Of course she will.
13:48This is not our idea of a suitor.
13:50His heart is aching for you,
13:52your royal highness.
13:54Ah, let it ache.
13:56Oh, all right. I'll give him a chance.
13:58Here is a question, number one.
14:00What is the number we are thinking of?
14:02Well, of all the stupid questions.
14:04We haven't all day.
14:06Oh, well, uh...
14:10Four!
14:12Indeed not!
14:14It is 3,598,765!
14:16Be gone! Out!
14:18Be gone! Out!
14:20Hey, Snork, that's not fair!
14:22What rudeness! Off with his head!
14:24It's not fair, I demand it!
14:26Go home!
14:28Give me another one!
14:30Oh, what a rude suitor!
14:32We are no longer in the mood for a royal marriage, Jester.
14:34At least not today.
14:36A wise decision,
14:38oh princess of the lonely mountains.
14:40They will be prostrate with grief,
14:42but bid the other suitors to go home.
14:44Do not let them beg.
14:46I like that.
14:48Very well, your royal highness.
14:50Do it kindly. We wish them no pain at all.
14:52From this day on, we shall devote ourselves
14:54to good works and to the well-being of our people.
14:56Oh.
14:58Phew, I didn't want to marry her anyway.
15:00I wonder what Snork Maiden's up to now.
15:04Upstairs thinking.
15:06She says she'll devote her life to good works.
15:08Works? What works?
15:10I don't know,
15:12but she probably wants to be remembered in the history books.
15:14The princess who was adored
15:16by her subjects.
15:20She's coming down.
15:24Your royal highness,
15:26may I assist you?
15:28Send Nanette to us.
15:30She is on an errand, your highness.
15:32Then have someone else make soup,
15:34nourishing but not too rich.
15:36Soup, highness?
15:38Yes, indeed.
15:40And then we shall take it to our poor subjects ourselves.
15:42What kind of soup?
15:44We don't know.
15:46We eat. We don't cook.
15:48The poor will be happy with anything
15:50brought by the princess herself.
15:52Now hurry, Nan. Be quick about it.
15:58Now she wants some soup.
16:04This will be ample.
16:06The poor do not eat much.
16:08It would only make them ill.
16:10Yes, your majesty.
16:12Nonsense!
16:28Greetings, Jester.
16:30What now?
16:32We're taking soup to the poor,
16:34made with our own regal fingers.
16:36Do you know where they are, Jester?
16:38Oh, I know.
16:40Good. Wonderful. Take us to them now.
16:42They will be so grateful.
16:44You bet, princess.
16:52That house there.
16:54Oh, yes.
16:56It's nice to know that the poor in my kingdom
16:58are so well off.
17:08Oh, you!
17:10Please come over here.
17:12Who are you?
17:14I'm the princess of Lonely Mountain.
17:16Princess?
17:18Oh!
17:20One moment, your royal highness.
17:22Do not keep us waiting.
17:24We have a lot to do.
17:26I'm coming! I'm coming!
17:28Forgive me, your royal highness.
17:30I had no idea you were...
17:32My, my. It's Snark Maiden.
17:34That common name is a shame.
17:36It's Snark Maiden.
17:38That common name again? We are a princess.
17:40Fiddlesticks.
17:42You're not right in the head,
17:44coming here bothering your elders and betters like this.
17:46My betters?
17:48Oh! Are you the queen, then?
17:50I am Mrs. Fillyjonk.
17:52Now, what do you want?
17:54You're just fulfilling our royal duty,
17:56bringing soup to the poor,
17:58giving cheer to those less fortunate than ourselves.
18:00Here, my good woman.
18:02Now, if you'd just...
18:04A stitch of clothing to your name.
18:06Oh, the rich aroma of the soup
18:08must have overcome you, Mrs. Fillyjonk.
18:10Ugh!
18:12Eat it yourself, your majesty.
18:14Ah!
18:16This is high treason!
18:18Send for the guard! Take her to the tower!
18:24Oh! Oh!
18:26We cannot see!
18:28I'm afraid that serves you right, Snark Maiden.
18:30Snark Maiden!
18:32Don't use that common name!
18:34Help us! We cannot see!
18:36Please stand still, your royal highness.
18:38Oh, hold her, Moomin.
18:40Oh! Oh! Oh!
18:42I think it's stuck, Moomin.
18:44Use the handle.
18:46Ah! Stop! You're hurting royal friends!
18:48Right, I'll get it out of the way.
18:50Ah, wait a minute.
18:52You can't break that soup, Toreen.
18:54It's a family heirloom.
18:56And you mustn't hit Snark Maiden on the head.
18:58You might hurt her.
19:00All right!
19:06Oh, poor Snark Maiden.
19:08You didn't have to hit it that hard.
19:10Difficult to judge it with a broom.
19:12I've never hit anyone wearing a soup, Toreen, before.
19:14Are you all right, your royal highness?
19:16Forgive us, your royal highness.
19:18Sprinkle some cold water over her face.
19:20No, she'd hate that, Mama.
19:22Snark Maiden!
19:24Ah, it's no good, Moomin.
19:26I don't think she'll wake up to anything
19:28but your royal highness.
19:30Your highness! Your highness!
19:32Look out!
19:36Snark Maiden!
19:38Oh, I'm so glad your royal highness is with us again.
19:40I hope your royal highness is not badly hurt.
19:46Where am I?
19:48In Moomin Valley, of course, stupid!
19:50Where do you think?
19:52That's weird.
19:54I thought Moomin and I had gone for a walk
19:56in the mountains.
19:58Didn't we, Moomin?
20:00Do you remember who I am, Snark Maiden?
20:02Moomin, what are you talking about?
20:04Of course I do.
20:06And you don't think you're a princess anymore?
20:08Princess? Have you gone crazy or something?
20:10What princess? What do you mean, Moomin?
20:12Hooray! She's back to normal.
20:14Snark Maiden's back to normal.
20:16Yes, it's nice to have you back again.
20:18Yes, it's wonderful. Welcome home.
20:20What is?
20:22What's wonderful?
20:24Are you sleepy or something?
20:26Never mind, Snark Maiden.
20:28You bumped your head, that's all.
20:30And so Snark Maiden's brief spell
20:32as a royal princess came to an end.
20:34Except that she was the only one
20:36who didn't remember it.
20:38But everyone else in Moomin Valley
20:40breathed a sigh of relief.
