Below is a transcribed copy of the Sofia the First episode "A Tale of Two Teams".
| Speaker | Dialogue |
|---|---|
| Princess Sofia | I'm open. Go long, Jade. |
| Jade | I got it. I got it. Ugh. I had until it changed on me. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | That's the thing about dazzleball. You never know when it's gonna change shape. |
| Princess Sofia | Jade, pass it to me. |
| Man | Whoa! |
| Jade | Sorry. Guess I'm a little rusty. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | We haven't played in so long. |
| Man | Hear ye, hear ye. The King's Cup dazzleball challenge match between the Royal Redhawks and the Dunwiddie Ducks will take place one week from today, at the brand new Enchancia Square Garden. May the best team win. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Oh, I can't wait. The way Sofia's been playing, we could finally beat the Royals. |
| Jade | But Sofia is a royal now. Does that mean you won't play on our team? |
| Ruby Hanshaw | You have to play on our team, Sofia. You've always played on our team. |
| Princess Sofia | Of course I'll be on your team. You're my best friends. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | All right! |
| Jade | Yes! |
| Princess Sofia | Team cheer! Team cheer! |
| Princess Sofia, Ruby Hanshaw, and Jade | Quack, Ducks, quack! Quack, Ducks, quack! |
| Jade | Way to go, Sofia! |
| Ruby Hanshaw | We're gonna beat the Royals for sure. |
| Prince James | Sofia! |
| Princess Amber | There you are. It's time for dazzleball practice. Are you excited to be a Royal Redhawk? |
| Princess Amber and Prince James | Rah-Rah-Redhawks! |
| Princess Sofia | Um, actually, I'm going to play for the village team. |
| Prince James | What? |
| Princess Amber | Sofia, you're a royal now. You should be playing with us. Well, I won't be playing. Daddy made me the coach. But you should be on our team. |
| Princess Sofia | I already told my friends. |
| Princess Amber | Then just tell them you changed your mind. |
| Princess Sofia | But I haven't changed my mind. |
| Princess Amber | Oh, Sofia, you will when you see what it's like on the royal team.
♪ Play with us and you will see |

| Princess Amber and Prince James | ♪ Sisters and brothers look one for one another ♪ |
| Princess Amber | ♪ So we should play together ♪ |
| Prince James | ♪ We should play together ♪ |
| Princess Amber and Prince James | ♪ Friends are nice but family is forever |

| Princess Amber and Prince James | ♪ Play with us and you'll be treated just like royalty |
| Princess Sofia | You're right. We are family. I'll be a Royal Redhawk. |
| Prince James | Brilliant! |
| Princess Amber | Let's do the team cheer. |
| Princess Sofia, Princess Amber, and Prince James | Rah-Rah-Redhawks! |
| Princess Sofia | Just tell them the truth. Ruby, Jade, guys, there's something I need to tell you. |
| Lucinda | Sofia, you're here. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Wait till you see all the new moves I've been working on. |
| Princess Sofia | But I've decided... |
| Jade | Here, Sofia, put this on. It's your new uniform. |
| Princess Sofia | Okay. |
| Dunwiddie Ducks | Quack, Ducks, quack! Quack, Ducks, quack! |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Let's get this practice started. Everybody, break up into two sides. |
| Meg | Come on, Sofia. Let's play. |
| Lucinda | Get the ball. |
| Princess Sofia | I'm open. |
| Jade | Whoa! |
| Meg | Hey! |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Lucinda, there's no magic allowed in dazzleball. |
| Lucinda | Sorry. Forgot. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Jade's doing her super-duper spin kick. |
| Princess Sofia | You okay, Jade? |
| Jade | I don't know how I did that. I've never missed a spin kick before. |
| Princess Sofia | Over here. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Pass it back. |
| Meg | Nice shot, Sofia. |
| Jade | Wow! I'm sure glad you're on our team. Hey, was there something you wanted to tell us before? |
| Princess Sofia | Um... No. Let's keep practicing. |
| Jade | Yeah. I could use it. |
| Princess Sofia | Oh. Nice try, Jade. |
| Jade | Trying isn't good enough. I have to play better than this if we're gonna win. |
| Clover | The squirrel passes to the rabbit. A give-and-go. Back to the squirrel. Look at that little squirrel move. He could go all the... Hey, you can't eat the ball. Sof, what's wrong? |
| Princess Sofia | Oh, nothing. |
| Clover | Uh-uh-uh. Come on now. You can't fool me. I can always sniff out trouble. Sof, what's the matter? |
| Princess Sofia | I told Ruby and Jade I'd play on the village dazzleball team. |
| Clover | Eh, sounds like fun. |
| Princess Sofia | Then I told Amber and James I'd play on the royal team. |
| Clover | Eh, sounds like a problem. |
| Princess Sofia | And now I don't know which team to play for. My family or my friends? |
| Clover | Yeah, that's a tough one. Hmm. Well, you could always forget about all of them and play dazzleball with us. |
| Princess Sofia | You know, you're right, Clover. I think I know a way to get out of playing for either team so no one will be disappointed. I just need a bandage and some wood. |
| Princess Amber | Now remember, there is no "I" in team, but there is one in fashion. So let's look good out there. Yeah! |
| Princess Maya | Amber, do you know anything about coaching dazzleball? |
| Princess Amber | Of course I do. I know that all wristbands must be color-coordinated. |
| Prince James | Oh, brother. |
| Prince Zandar | Well, do you have any plays we can run? |
| Princess Amber | Plays? |
| Princess Jun | You know, Amber. Plans that the coach comes up with. |
| Princess Maya | That tell us where to go on the field so we can score. |
| Prince James | So we can win the game. |
| Princess Jun | You can borrow my dazzleball playbook if you like. |
| Princess Maya | It's filled with lots of good scoring plans. |
| Princess Amber | Oh, thanks. I know just what to use it for. Can everyone see me better now? |
| Princess Sofia | Ow! |
| Prince James | Sofia. |
| Prince Zandar | Oh, no! |
| Prince Khalid | What happened? |
| Princess Sofia | I... Ow. Ow. Hurt my foot. Looks like I can't play in the big game. Ow. |
| Prince James | Oh, no. |
| Princess Amber | Ugh. Really, Sofia. You should be more careful. Oh! |
| Princess Sofia | Amber. |
| Princess Amber | Thanks. |
| Prince James | Wow! I guess your foot must be feeling better. |
| Princess Sofia | Oh. I, um... I guess so. |
| Princess Jun | Then you can play. |
| Princess Maya | That's a relief. |
| Princess Sofia | No. No, I can't. |
| Prince James | What do you mean? That was some nifty footwork. |
| Princess Sofia | That's not it. I... |
| Princess Amber | Oh, don't worry, Sofia. I'll make sure you look fabulous out there. Here. Try a blue wristband. It highlights your eyes. |
| Clover | I'm guessing the fake boo-boo didn't work. |
| Princess Sofia | No, it didn't. I have to pick one team or the other, and I don't have much time. There's a practice game tomorrow. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Thanks for coming to the practice game, Your Majesties. |
| Princess Amber | Of course, Ruby. |
| Prince James | It'll be good to get in some practice before the big game. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Sofia, you've got the wrong uniform on. |
| Princess Sofia | Well, the thing is, I'm playing on the royal team. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | But you said you'd play with us. |
| Princess Sofia | I'm sorry. I tried to tell you before. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | How could you do this to us? |
| Jade | I thought we were your best friends. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Yeah. |
| Princess Sofia | You are my best friends. I didn't think they'd get so mad. |
| Princess Amber | But you made the right choice. |
| Prince James | Come on. You'll feel better when we start playing. |
| Princess Amber | Listen up, Redhawks. Today may just be a practice game, but the most important thing to remember is to not get your uniforms dirty, so they'll be pretty for the big game. |
| Prince James | What about sharpening our skills? |
| Princess Jun | Or working on our plays? |
| Princess Amber | Oh, put that thing down. You don't want to tire yourself out. |
| Baileywick | All right, everyone, this is only a practice game, but the rules are the same as they will be for the real game. Whoever scores the most goals before time runs out wins. |
| Prince James | I got it. Oh. |
| Princess Sofia | Over here. |
| Prince James | Yeah! |
| Princess Maya | Nice. |
| Princess Jun | Great play. |
| Queen Miranda | Good job, Sofia. |
| Princess Sofia | Thanks, Mom. |
| Jade | Out of my way. |
| Princess Sofia | Sorry, Jade. I... |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Jade, I'm open. |
| Jade | No. |
| Prince Zandar | Whoo! |
| Princess Maya | Way to go, James! |
| Princess Jun | All right! |
| Queen Miranda | Excellent play, James. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Jade, you passed it right to them. |
| Jade | I didn't mean to. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | It's bad enough Sofia is playing for the other team. We don't need you doing it, too. |
| Jade | That's not fair, Ruby. |
| Lucinda | Pass it to me. |
| Baileywick | Illegal use of magic. Royal Redhawks get a free kick. |
| Lucinda | Sorry. Oh. |
| Baileywick | Kick is blocked. Timeout on the field. |
| Princess Maya | Amber, do you have a play for us? |
| Princess Amber | Ugh! Why does everyone keep talking about plays? |
| Prince James | Because a good one can help us score. |
| Baileywick | Game on. |
| Princess Maya | Okay. Here goes. |
| Prince James | Kick it to me. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Quick, Jade, do your spin kick. |
| Princess Maya | Over here. |
| Baileywick | Time's up. Final score of the practice game, Royal Redhawks three, Dunwiddie Ducks zero. |
| Princess Amber | We win! |
| Royal Redhawks | Rah-Rah-Redhawks! |
| Jade | I don't know what's wrong with me. My spin kick used to work every time. It was always my best move, but now I keep missing the ball. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | It's okay. It was just a practice game. The real game is tomorrow, and we're going to win. |
| Jade | Win? In case you didn't notice, we just got creamed, and our best player is on the other team. |
| Princess Sofia | Good game. |
| Jade | Maybe for you. |
| Princess Sofia | Oh, Mom, I know I'm a royal now, but part of me feels like I should really be playing on the village team. |
| Queen Miranda | You know what I love most about dazzleball? The way the ball changes its shape all the time. You never know what's coming next. Life is kind of like that, too. One day you're a simple villager. The next day you're a princess, living in a castle. No matter where life takes you, you should never forget where you come from, because that is a part of you, too. You just have to be true to yourself, Sofia. |
| Princess Sofia | Huh. I think I know what to do. Thanks, Mom. |
| Queen Miranda | Just don't forget the most important part of playing a sport. |
| Princess Sofia | What's that? |
| Queen Miranda | Having fun. Come and get it. |
| Princess Sofia | Hey! |
| Princess Amber | Okay, team, pay attention. We're going to have a little surprise for the village team today. |
| Prince Zandar | You drew up some new plays for us? |
| Princess Amber | Even better. I've designed new headbands for the team. |
| Prince Zandar | That's your big strategy? |
| Prince James | I am not wearing that. |
| Princess Amber | You have to look like a winner to be a winner, James. |
| Prince James | Amber, we need a coach, not a fashion designer. |
| Princess Amber | Uh, Jun, really. Why do we need a playbook when we beat the village team so easily in the practice game? The problem isn't winning. It's how to look good doing it. Sofia, why aren't you in your uniform? |
| Princess Sofia | I'm sorry I'm doing this at the last minute, but I'm going to play for the village team. |
| Princess Amber | What? You can't. You're royal now. |
| Princess Sofia | I was a villager before I was royal. I'm part of both worlds now. And since I told my friends I'd play on their team first, I have to honor that. |
| Princess Amber | What about us? |
| Princess Sofia | It's just a game, Amber. We'll still be family when it's over. |
| Prince James | Sofia's right. It is just a game. |
| Princess Amber | All right. If you want to play for the losing team, Sofia, go right ahead. But you're missing out on wearing a spectacular headband. |
| Jade | Do I have to go out there? |
| Ruby Hanshaw | We need you. You saw how badly they beat us in the practice game. You've always been one of our best players. |
| Jade | You mean I used to be. Now I'm the worst. I'll just stay in here. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | No, you're playing. If we're gonna have a chance, we need everyone we've got. |
| Princess Sofia | Even old friends? |
| Jade | What are you doing here? |
| Princess Sofia | I came to say I'm sorry. I should have stuck with you guys to begin with. No matter where I live, I'll always be from the village. And I'll always be your friend. So I'd like to play on your team today, if you'll let me. Once a Duck always a Duck, right? |
| Jade | You think we should welcome you back after what you did? |
| Princess Sofia | I said I was sorry. |
| Meg | Yeah. |
| Lucinda | Come on, Jade. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Give her a break. |
| Lucinda | Of course you can play with us, Sofia. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Here you go. |
| Princess Sofia | come on. |
| Dunwiddie Ducks | Quack, Ducks, quack! Quack, Ducks, quack! |
| Jade | You may be back on the team, but it doesn't mean we're friends again. And the Royals are still gonna beat us. |
| Clover | Good afternoon, ladies and gentle-squirrels. Welcome to the King's Cup dazzleball match. It's a beautiful day for a game. |
| Princess Amber | Okay, Redhawks, let's go out there and show them who's in charge! |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Okay, guys, this is it. This is the year we win the big game. |
| King Roland II | Let's get ready to dazzle! |
| Clover | And the game is underway! It's intercepted by Sofia. Here come the Ducks. Sofia runs upfield, passes to Jade. Ooh! The catch is fumbled. James picks it up. Weaves his way through the defenders. And boom! Hooks the ball right into the goal! The Redhawks score the first point! Wow! |
| Jade | Whatever happens, do not pass the ball to me. |
| Princess Sofia | It's okay, Jade. Everyone misses a catch once in a while. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Not Jade. She was our best player last year. |
| Clover | Maya kicks off for the Redhawks. And it comes to Lucinda. |
| Lucinda | Get it, Jade! |
| Clover | Who passes it to Jade. |
| Jade | Whoa! |
| Princess Jun | Got it. |
| Jade | No! How did I miss that? |
| Princess Sofia | I think something's wrong with Jade. |
| Prince Khalid | Stop Jun! |
| Prince James | Go, Jun! |
| Princess Maya and Prince Zandar | Shoot it! |
| Princess Jun | I can't see! |
| Clover | Here come the Ducks! Sofia shoots! She scores! Goal for the Ducks, and it's all tied up. |
| Audience member | Whoo-hoo! |
| Princess Sofia | Yeah! |
| Princess Jun | I would have scored if it wasn't for this headband. |
| Prince James | If you really want to help us, Amber, try doing some actual coaching. |
| Clover | Ruby kicks off for the Ducks. Zandar catches the ball. And Sofia picks up the ball again. What a play! |
| Jade | No, no! Don't pass to me. |
| Clover | Sofia passes to Meg, and Meg back to Sofia. She shoots! She scores! And the Ducks take the lead! |
| Princess Amber | Okay, Redhawks, huddle up. I have a play. |
| Royal Redhawks | You do? |
| Princess Amber | I do. We have to score and score fast, so this is what you need to do. Jun, you act like you're going to catch the kickoff, but at the last second James will run in and catch it. Everyone will be so busy chasing him that you'll be able to sneak right up the field. |
| Clover | The score is Dunwiddie Ducks two, Royal Redhawks one. Oh, there's only a few minutes left in the game. The Redhawks need to make something happen and fast. |
| Princess Amber | Go get 'em! |
| Clover | Here's the kickoff. And it's gonna be caught by Jun. No, wait! James cuts in and grabs it. He throws back to Jun, who's wide open. The Redhawks score the tying goal! Oh-oh! Coach Amber drew up an amazing play. |
| Princess Maya | All right, Amber. Great coaching. |
| Princess Amber | Not the hair. Not the headband. |
| Prince James | Thanks, Amber. |
| Princess Amber | Oh. |
| Clover | Lucinda grabs the kickoff, zips it up to Sofia. She passes it to Jade. |
| Meg | Hey, Jade! |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Do your spin kick, Jade! |
| Baileywick | Time out. |
| Jade | Ugh. Not again. |
| Princess Sofia | Here's the ball, Baileywick. |
| Baileywick | Oh. |
| Princess Sofia | Sorry. |
| Baileywick | It's okay, Sofia. I can't catch anything without my glasses. |
| Princess Sofia | Huh. Maybe that's what's wrong with Jade. |
| Baileywick | Oh, thank you. |
| Princess Sofia | Do you happen to have any spare eyeglasses I can borrow? |
| Baileywick | Of course. Take your pick. |
| Princess Sofia | Jade, I think there's a reason you're not playing well. You need glasses. |
| Jade | No, I don't. Leave me alone. |
| Princess Sofia | Look, I know you're mad at me, but we're on the same team. And I really think they'll help. Will you at least try them on? |
| Jade | Okay. Oh, wow! Everything's so clear. |
| Princess Sofia | Okay, Jade, let's win this game. |
| Clover | It all comes down to this. Under a minute left in the game, and it's all tied up at two goals apiece. |
| Princess Jun | There's not much time. And they still have the ball. |
| Princess Amber | Hmm. |
| Prince James | We need a good play. What should we do, Coach Amber? |
| Princess Amber | Hmm. Well, Sofia's their best player, so they'll probably give her the ball. When she gets it, everyone surround her. We'll steal the ball, score, and win. |
| Prince James | I like it. |
| Princess Jun | Okay. |
| Princess Maya | Let's do it. |
| Clover | And the crowd is on the edge of their tails, waiting to see who will take home the King's cup. Ruby fields the kickoff, flips it to Meg. |
| Prince James | Now! |
| Clover | Who hands it off to Sofia. |
| Princess Maya | Get Sofia. |
| Prince James | Defense, defense! |
| Clover | Sofia runs upfield, but here comes the entire Redhawks team. They're swarming around Sofia. |
| Princess Sofia | Hey! |
| Clover | She has nowhere to run. |
| Jade | I'm open, Sofia! I'm open! |
| Clover | And Sofia passes the ball to Jade. Whoa! She's got the ball with only seconds left. |
| Princess Sofia | Shoot it. |
| Ruby Hanshaw | Go for it, Jade! |
| Clover | She shoots! And scores! Yes! That's it! The game is over, and the Dunwiddie Ducks have won, three to two! What? Yes! |
| Jade | We won! |
| Meg | You did it! |
| Ruby Hanshaw | We won! Great kick, Jade! |
| Dunwiddie Ducks | Quack, Ducks, quack! Quack, Ducks, quack! Quack, Ducks, quack! |
| Jade | You were right. I do need glasses. I guess I'll see the doctor and get my own pair after the game. Thanks, Sofia. |
| Princess Sofia | Sure, Jade. |
| Jade | You're a great teammate and a great friend. |
| Dunwiddie Ducks and Royal Redhawks | Good game. Nice playing. Good game. Good game. Good game. |
| Princess Sofia | You played a great game, James. |
| Prince James | You played a better one. |
| Princess Sofia | But you had a great coach. |
| Princess Amber | And I'm going to be even better next year. I really like coaching. You tell people what to do and then they do it. |
| Queen Miranda | That certainly was an exciting game. Well done, everyone. |
| King Roland II | And it is my great pleasure to present the King's Cup to this year's dazzleball champions... the Dunwiddie Ducks! |
| Dunwiddie Ducks | Quack, Ducks, quack! Quack, Ducks, quack! Quack, Ducks, quack! |
