# Enchanted (2007 film)

Enchanted is a 2007 Walt Disney Pictures film about Giselle, a princess from the 2D-animated world of Andalasia, who is pushed by an evil queen into a magical well that transports her to the live-action world of New York City. Giselle's fiancé, Prince Edward, and her chipmunk friend, Pip, go to New York to find her. Meanwhile Giselle meets Robert Philip and his daughter, Morgan, who provide her a place to stay until she can find her way home.
    Directed by Kevin Lima. Written by Bill Kelly.

## Giselle

* [after an old man steals her tiara] You... are not a very nice old man!!
* I'm sure that Edward is already searching for me. No doubt by morning he'll come and rescue me from this strange land. Take me home so that the two of us can share a true love's kiss.
* [singing] We adore each filthy chore that we determine. So, friends, even though you're vermin, we're a happy working throng!
* I wish you every happiness.
* Hello, please open the door.

## Robert Philip

* [to Morgan after giving her a book] I know it's not the fairytale book you wanted, but this is better.
* [to Morgan about Giselle] Just because she has on a funny dress doesn't mean she's a princess. She's a seriously confused woman who's fallen into our laps.
* Forget about "happily ever after". It doesn't exist.
* I know what it's like when someone disappoints you. It's tempting to see things the way you wish they were instead of how they are.
* I said I don't dance. I never said I couldn't.
* [to a dying Giselle] Please, don't leave me.

## Prince Edward

* (holding a construction worker at swordpoint) Are you in league with the wicked old hag who sent my poor Giselle to this foul place... Arty?
* Nathaniel likes the way I leap?
* I'm handsome even when I sleep?
* (after finding the television remote at a hotel he is staying at) It appears this odd little box controls the magic mirror!
* (to Robert and Morgan) Thank you for taking care of my bride, peasants.

## Queen Narissa

* [after seeing Edward and Giselle together for the first time] So this is the forest rat, who thinks she can claim my throne...NEVER!!!
* [Nathaniel: Oh, my most adored Queen, where did you send her?] To a place where there no happily ever afters.
* Speciosus, formosus, praeclarus!
* Another chance? What do you think poison apples grow on trees? There's only one left! You are out of chances! [Nathaniel: Your Majesty, please...] NO, FORGET IT! I'M COMING THERE, AND I WILL KILL THE LITTLE WRETCH MYSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELF!!!
* [she arrives in New York and finds Nathaniel in a car] Hello, worthless. Miss me?
* You want a show? I'll give you a show. Back up and get ready for the main event!
* Oh my, this is a twist on our story. Why, it's the brave little princess coming to the rescue. [to Robert] I guess that makes you the damsel in distress, huh, handsome?
* You'll never save her now. When the clock strikes 12... [whispers] She'll be dead.
* [last words] How about this? "And they all lived happily ever after." Well, at least I did. [laughs] What?! NOOO!

## Others

* Troll: That's cheating! I'm supposed to eat you!
* Phoebe Banks: Everybody has problems. Everybody has bad times. Do we sacrifice all of the good times because of them?
* Nancy Tremaine: (after her cellphone rings in Andalasia) Wow, really good reception here!

## Dialogue

    Giselle: You see, I've been wandering very far and long tonight, and I'm afraid nobody has been very nice to me.
    Robert: [cynically] Yeah, well, welcome to New York.
    Giselle: [sincerely] Thank you!
    Robert: [looks at her strangely] You sure you're okay?
    Giselle: Yes.
    Robert: Would you like me to call someone for you?
    Giselle: Well, I don't think they would hear you from here.
    Giselle: Now, if only I can find a place to rest my head for the night.
    Robert: What kind of place?
    Giselle: I don't know. Maybe a nearby meadow or a hollow tree.
    Robert: A hollow tree?
    Giselle: Or a house full of dwarves. I hear they're very hospitable.
    Edward: [leaps down the well] Fear not, Giselle, I will rescue you!
    Pip: [falls down the well] Yeah, but who's gonna rescue ME?!?!
    [Nancy jumps to conclusions after seeing Giselle in Robert and Morgan's apartment]
    Robert: [to Nancy] Can't we just talk about this?
    Nancy: [angrily] Talk about what, Robert? How I never stay the night because we both agreed that Morgan's here and you have to set some boundaries. And I thought, "I'm so lucky, he's sensitive." I didn't realize you were worried about crowd control! [starts to storm out]
    Robert: What...What about the grown-up girl bonding time with you and Morgan? About you bringing her to school.
    Nancy: What, so you can have your own grown-up girl bonding time? [Giselle smiles] I don't think so.
    [Robert knocks on the bathroom door]
    Giselle: [from inside the bathroom] Hello?
    Robert: Okay, you know what? You gotta go. Look, I don't know what your deal is, if you're waiting around for Prince Charming or you're just...?
    Giselle: [from inside] Prince Edward.
    Robert: Whatever. Look, I'll get you to a bus, a train, a plane, a whatever, then, that's it. After that, I can't...I can't get involved after that. [Giselle emerges from the bathroom in a bright blue and pink dress] Where did you get that?
    Giselle: I made it. Do you like it? [Robert notices dress-shaped holes in his curtains and looks quite shocked] You're unhappy.
    Robert: [angrily] You made a dress out of my curtains?
    Giselle: Oh, you are unhappy! I'm so sorry.
    Robert: Oh, I'm not unhappy. I'm angry. An unpleasant emotion. Ever heard of it?
    Nathaniel: Never fear, my queen. I will stop him! [jumps into the well]
    [Nathaniel arrives in Times Square, in the live-action world; the construction workers remove the manhole cover and lift him up]
    Arty: Let me guess. You're looking for a beautiful girl, too?
    Nathaniel: No, I'm looking for a prince, actually.
    Arty: Right.
    [They hear Edward laughing in triumph, and turn to see him riding on the roof of an MTA New York City Transit bus, under the delusion that it is a steel beast]
    Prince Edward: You've met your match, you foul-bellowing beast! [takes his sword and stabs it through the roof of the bus]
    [The blade also ripping open an old lady's birdseed bag in the process. The driver stops the bus]
    Bus Driver: [gets up] Everybody stay on the bus.
    Edward: Giselle? My love?
    Pip in New York: Giselle?
    Edward: Right. [addresses the passengers] The steel beast is dead, peasants! I've set you all free!
    Bus Driver: [steps out the doors to confront Edward as other bus passengers complain] Are you crazy? Nobody stabs my bus! I'll tear you apart! Do you hear me? You get down here right now!
    Nathaniel: [comes up and tries to help out] Ma'am, if you'll allow me...
    Edward: Nathaniel, old friend!
    Nathaniel: Sire, may I suggest that you, uh...
    Bus Driver: You? A friend of his? Crazy tight-wearing... Come here and mess up my route? [Pip jumps onto her forehead and mimics her attitude] I'll tear you both apart! [Nathaniel eyes Pip] Don't you roll your eyes at me! [Nathaniel points at Pip, causing her to look up] A rat! Get it away from me! [goes berserk and tries to get Pip off of her]
    Edward: Well, strictly speaking, he's a chipmunk.
    Nathaniel: Sire, may I suggest we seek elsewhere for your bride?
    [Pip tries to warn Edward about the plot that Nathaniel and Narissa have against Giselle]
    Prince Edward: Go ahead, Pip. What is it you want to say?
    Pip in New York: [clears his throat, squeaks] You watch me. Okay?[rubs "hands" together and points accusingly at Nathaniel to indicate that he's a traitor]
    Edward: Nathaniel?
    Pip in New York: [squeaking] Uh-huh. Nathaniel.
    Edward: Nathaniel's glad to have me near?
    Pip in New York: [squeaking] No-no-no-no-no! [imitates Nathaniel and then scurries to a soda cup and imitates the conversation Nathaniel had with Narissa through the boiling pot, including making the three poisoned apples appear] Broop, broop, broop. [takes a piece of ice as if it were an apple. Imitates Nathaniel again] Giselle. [imitates Giselle singing "True Love's Kiss"]
    Edward" Oh, I know this one.
    Pip in New York: [as Nathaniel] Apple? [as Giselle] No, thank you. [as Nathaniel] It's good. [as Giselle] Oh, okay. [crunches on the ice and imitates dying, and then stands up with pose] Tada! [waiting for Edward's interpretation]
    Edward: You feel you'd die without me here?
    [Pip's face falls]
    Sam: She has no driver's license, no passport, I can't even find this place she comes from.
    Robert Phillip: What place?
    Sam: Andalusia.
    Robert: Andalasia.
    Sam: Whatever. I've called every travel agent, every airline. I'm not sure if it's a country or a city.
    Robert: It can't be a state.
    [Both watch Giselle acting strangely]
    Sam: More like a state of mind. And she told me it's just beyond the meadows of joy and the [mimicking Giselle] valley of contentment. [normal voice] What is that all about?
    [Robert stares at Giselle after she gives him advice on how to make up with Nancy]
    Giselle: Why are you staring at me?
    Robert: I don't know. It's...It's like you escaped from a Hallmark card or something.
    Giselle: Is that a bad thing?
    Giselle: Robert! This is Clara. She saw Edward.
    Robert: Oh.
    Clara: He was on the bus this morning.
    Robert: Uh-huh...
    Clara: He tried to kill me!
    Robert: Great. Wonderful. That's great.
    Giselle: [singing] How does she know you love her?
    Robert: Oh no, no, no...
    Giselle: [singing] How does she know...
    Robert: People are look-looking...
    Giselle: [singing] She's yours?
    Robert: Don't sing. It's okay, you know. Let's just walk. Can we walk?
    Giselle: Well, does she?
    Robert: Yeah.
    Jamaican Man: [singing] How does she know that you love her?
    Giselle: [excitedly] Oh!
    Robert: He knows this song, too?
    Giselle: [singing] Well, does he take you out dancing just so he can hold you close?
    Robert: I don't dance!
    Giselle: [singing] Dedicate a song with words meant just for you?
    Robert: And I really don't sing.
    Giselle: [to a pair of white doves] Take these flowers to Nancy, please.
    Robert: What are you, crazy? They're birds! They don't know where she lives.
    Nathaniel: [after Edward gets hit by bicyclists] Oh, dear, sire. You've fallen on your royal...
    Edward: I know, I know.
    Nathaniel: Sire, do you...like yourself?
    Edward: What's not to like?
    Robert: [regarding Morgan] I know she's shy. I know she doesn't have very many friends. I just want her to be strong, you know? To be able to face the world for what it is. That's why I don't encourage the fairy tales. I don't want to set her up to believe in this "dreams come true" nonsense.
    Giselle: But dreams do come true. And maybe something wonderful will happen.
    Robert: Yeah, well, I forgot who I was talking to.
    Giselle: Well, I hope you don't forget. I like talking to you.
    [Nathaniel, disguised as a waiter and speaking with a very absurd French accent, sets down a martini at Giselle's place setting]
    Nathaniel: [as French waiter] For the nice lady. From a secret admirer.
    Giselle: Oh!
    Robert: A secret admirer? How come people keep giving you free stuff?
    Giselle: What is it?
    Nathaniel: [as French waiter] It's an apple martini, miss!
    Giselle: Oh, apple mar...ooh! It looks yummy.
    Robert: Yeah, be careful, it's poisonous.
    [Nathaniel growls at him]
    Giselle: You're joking.
    Robert: Yeah. No, they'll creep up on you, though. I'd be really careful.
    Giselle: Well, I'll just have one sip.
    Nathaniel: A sip, is all it takes.
    [Giselle starts to sip, but Pip intervenes]
    Edward: [talking to a TV] Magic Mirror, I beg you. Tell me where she is!
    Mary Ilene Caselotti: [on TV] Reporting from 116th and Broadway.
    Edward: 116th and Broadway! [hugs the TV] Thank you, Mirror! [kisses it and leaves]
    [Edward knocks on a random door in Robert's apartment building, trying to find Giselle]
    Pregnant Woman with Kids: [taking in Edward's "Prince Charming" getup] ...You're too late.
    Edward: [stricken] My apologies.
    Robert: You know what? I don't know if you're kidding or if you're being ironic, because chipmunks, they don't talk.
    Giselle: Well, not here they don't.
    Giselle: Is that the only word that you know? "No?"
    Robert: No.
    Giselle: Oh, yeah.
    Robert: No.
    Giselle: "No."
    Robert: No.
    Giselle: "No."
    Robert: No. I mean, no! No.
    Giselle: "No! No! No!" Over and over again! Every word out of your mouth is "No!" It just makes me so...Oh, sometimes you make me so...
    Robert: Make you so what?
    Giselle: You make me so...so...angry! [laughs] I'm angry! [laughs]
    Narissa: [after learning Giselle is still alive] I sent you to kill her, not save her. Can't you get that straight?
    Nathaniel: I realize you're upset, madam, but if you could find your way to give me one more chance, I promise...
    Narissa: Another chance? What, do you think poison apples grow on trees? There's only one left! You are out of chances.
    Nathaniel: Your Majesty, please, I...
    Narissa: NO, FORGET IT! I'M COMING THERE, AND I WILL KILL THE LITTLE WRETCH MYSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELF!!!!!!!!!! [causing all the glasses to break]
    Edward: Have you any last words before I dispatch you?
    Robert: You have got to be kidding me!
    Edward: [confused] Strange words.
    Morgan: And when you go out, you don't want to wear too much makeup 'cause otherwise the boys get the wrong idea. And you know how they are. They are only after one thing.
    Giselle: What's that?
    Morgan Philip: I don't know. Nobody will tell me.
    Nancy: [calling 911] Hello? We have a woman here, she's unconscious. I don't know. I didn't see what happened.
    Narissa: Well, she fainted, and-
    Nathaniel: [appearing out of nowhere] No, she didn't.
    Narissa: Nathaniel, back to the car.
    Nathaniel: I will not. You poisoned her.
    Narissa: [jokingly] Ha!
    Nathaniel: [to Edward] She's the evil hag, sire!
    Edward: [to Narissa; shocked] You did this?
    Nathaniel: She sent the girl here! She poisoned her! With my help I...I regret to say.
    Narissa: Oh, he's lying, darling. Why would I ally myself with that buffoon? I mean, think about. Why would I-?
    Edward: Silence! You lying, murderous wretch. When we return home, all of Andalasia shall know of your treachery. Your days as Queen will be over.
    Narissa: Take my crown? Don't you think that's a bit melodramatic, dear?
    Edward: I don't know what "melodramatic" means. But you will be removed from the throne forever. I will see to it, Narissa.
    Narissa: [after transforming herself into a dragon in front of everyone] Ah, of all this nauseating talk of true love's kiss, it really does bring out the worse in me. You know I've been thinking, if I'm going to remain Queen, I'm gonna need some sort of story when I go back. Hmm...What if a giant vicious beast showed up, and killed everyone, and poor defenseless Queen Narissa, she just couldn't save them? [looks at Giselle] Let's begin with the girl who started it all, shall we?
    Robert: Over my dead body.
    Narissa: Alright. I'm flexible. [grabs Robert] Come along, Giselle! We don't want you to miss this ending! [busts out of the window and climbs up the building]
    Robert: Put me down! You're crazy!
    Narissa: No. Spiteful, vindictive, very large, but never crazy.
