-
Thank you so much for your patience.
-
I have an announcement to make.
-
-My granddoughter...
-
I would like to announce that
my granddoughter has arrived
-
With a fascinating explanation
as to her wardrobe,I'm sure,
-
She's styling a wet,sort of grunge-look hairdo,
-
and is wearing a sweatshirt,jeans and Docs.
-
Dear would you care to say a few words?
-
Um,yes.
-
Why didn't we dress like her?
We look like idiots.
-
Thank you,Your Majesty.
-
Do you think they're trying to
save money on the gown?
-
Hello,I'm Mia,
-
It stopped raining.
-
Get your tiara ready.
-
I'm really no good at speech making.
-
Normally,I get so nervous that I faint
-
or run away or,um,
sometimes even get sick.
-
But you really didn't need to know that.
-
I'm not so afraid anymore.
-
My father helped me.
-
Earlier this evening,
-
I had every intention of
giving up my claim to the throne.
-
And my mother helped me
-
by telling me it was OK
and by supporting me,
-
like she has for my entire life.
-
But then I wondered how I'd feel
-
after abdicating my role
as Princess of Genovia.
-
Would I feel relieved,
would I feel sad?
-
And then I realized
-
how many stupid times a day
I use the word ''I.''
-
In fact,probably all I ever do
is think about myself.
-
How lame is that when there ared seven
billion after people on the planet.
-
But then I thought...
-
If I cared about the other seven billion
out there,instead of just me,
-
That's probably
a much better use of my time.
-
See,if I were Princess of Genovia,
-
then my thoughts and those
of people smarter than me
-
would be much better heard
and just maybe,
-
those thoughts could be
turned into actions.
-
So,this morning when I woke up,
-
I was Mia Thermopolis.
-
But now...
-
I choose to be,forevermore...
-
...Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis,
Renaldi,
-
Princess of Genovia.
-
I hope you didn't order
your stationary yet.
-
This was my very first tiara.
-
I was rather fond of it.
I'm hoping you will be,too
-
Grandma,but you had it all ready.
How'd you know I'd be here?
-
I recognize the same spirit in you
as someone else I know.
-
Really?Who?
-
Me.
-
Ah-ha! You made it.
-
You bet your life,
you big,tall stringbean.
-
Here.Polo here to save the day.
-
Genovia
-
The land I call my home
-
Genovia
-
Genovia
-
Forever
-
Will your banner wave
-
Her Majesty,Queen Clarisse,
and her Royal Highness,
-
Amalia,Princess of Gevovia.
-
I think perhaps,we'd better get you dried off now.
-
Thank you.
-
No longer does Mia
stand for missing in action,
-
Genovia has a new princess.
-
They had the same idea I had,
but now the garden is ocupado.
-
Why me?
-
because you saw me
when I was invisible.
-
And just because I'm royal
doesn't mean I'm different.
-
I'm reallythe same person.Yes,
I'lhave to live in Genovia a bit,but,
-
but I'm still gonna go to school,and...
-
Dear Diary,
-
today is my firt offical day
as Princess of Genovia.
-
We'll land in a few hours and
I'll meet the Parliament and people
-
before beginning my royal duties.
-
Mom is,of course,
moving to Genovia with me
-
and continue painting
without the ballons.
-
Lily and Michael are planning
to spend their summer vacation
-
at our,can you believe it,palace.
-
They're even having
my Mustang brought over,
-
which I can legally drive in two weeks.
-
Grandma's so glad to be going home.
-
And Joseph is watching nearby as usual.
-
Everybody's got pre-coronation jitters,
including me
-
Everybody,that is,except Fat Louie,
he's totally adapted to being royal.
-
I guess he was one all along.
-
Princess,look out the window...
-
...and welcome to Genovia.
-
