Winter's Gift/Transcript — sofia

Below is a transcribed copy of the Sofia the First episode "Winter's Gift".

Speaker	Dialogue
Princess Sofia	Oh! What's this? A present for me?
Clover	Ta-da! It's the gift that keeps on giving. Happy Wassailia, Sofia. It's me.
Princess Sofia	Happy Wassailia, Clover. What a great present. Oh, that reminds me. I made a gift for Mr. Cedric. It's a case for his wand. It took me a really long time to make. Can you help me with the wrapping?
Clover	Sure, kid.
Princess Sofia	Oh, I hope Mr. Cedric likes this.
Cedric the Sorcerer	Wassailia this, Wassailia that. I have had enough of Wassailia. All that fuss and bother, and for what? A lot of gushy, sentimental songs. And then, I'll be presented with some useless token of a gift. "Oh, Mr. Cedric, here's another ill-fitting sweater." Or, the worst, our kingdom's best sorcerer mug. Oh, I'm so tired of getting common, ordinary gifts. I wish, just once, someone will give me a gift worthy of a royal sorcerer. Something special.
Princess Sofia	Maybe my gift isn't special enough.
Clover	Are you kidding? You made that for him.
Princess Sofia	I need to find a better gift.
Cedric the Sorcerer	Oh, well, I suppose it's time to light the decorations. Now where is my family wand? Always goes missing when I need it. Oh! Thank you, Wormy. Now, let's go make this castle unbearably merry.
Princess Sofia	There must be a more magical gift I can get Mr. Cedric.
Clover	You could get him some sorcery lessons.
Baileywick	Oh, this won't do at all.
Princess Sofia	What's wrong, Baileywick?
Baileywick	I just wish my decorations were a bit more impressive this year. One Wassailia, we filled the entire castle with Ice Lilies.
Princess Sofia	What are Ice Lilies?
Baileywick	Magical flowers that give off a lovely glow. They used to grow in the Icicle Forest every winter, but no one has seen any in years. Oh, well. Violet, let's visit the greenhouse and get more blooms.
Princess Sofia	Magic flowers? That sounds like the perfect gift to get Mr. Cedric. Oh, if only we knew where to find them.
Clover	Hey, I know a guy. Well, technically, a fox. And he knows the forest like the back of his hand. If they're out there, he can find them.
Princess Sofia	Great!
Princess Amber	Where are you going, Sofia?
Princess Sofia	To get a last-minute present for Mr. Cedric.
Queen Miranda	Well, just make sure you're back by the time we light the Wassailia candle tonight.
Princess Sofia	See you soon.
Clover	Whiskers! Hey, Whiskers, it's me, Clover. Huh. Where is he? I... I know he lives around here somewhere. You, Whiskers.
Whiskers	Looking for me? Well, if it isn't my old pal, Clover. I haven't seen you since you took off to live the cushy life up at the castle. What brings you back here, buddy?
Clover	Well, uh, my friend, Sofia, needs your help.
Whiskers	Ah, the princess who talks to animals.
Princess Sofia	How do you know?
Whiskers	A little birdie told me.
Princess Sofia	Well, uh, Clover says you might know where to find some Ice Lilies.
Whiskers	Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm. Yeah. Okay, thanks. Word in the woods is there's an ice lily patch in the Icicle Forest.
Princess Sofia	Could you show us, Mr. Whiskers?
Whiskers	It's kind of a hike. You sure you're up for it?
Princess Sofia	Hmm, pretty sure.
Whiskers	I was talking to "earmuffs" here. You look like you've been up in that castle too long, Clover. You forget how it is out in the woods with the real wildlife?
Clover	No, I just have sensitive ears.
Whiskers	Yeah, whatever you say. Let's go get those Ice Lilies, Princess.
Princess Sofia	Thanks.
Whiskers	You're welcome. But I was talking to Clover.
Clover	Hey!
Whiskers	This is it. The Icicle Forest.
Clover	Why couldn't we have gone to the warm and sunshine-y forest?
Princess Sofia	Huh. Do you hear that? Where's it coming from? What is she?
Whiskers	She's a faun. But they don't usually hang out in this part of the forest.
Winter	Oh, hi there. I hope I wasn't bothering you, I can keep it down. Or just stop.
Princess Sofia	No, don't stop. It's beautiful.
Winter	Really? Oh, okay. Oh, I know an even better tune. How's this?
Princess Sofia	That was so pretty.
Winter	Hey, you look just like a princess. Oh, you probably are one, aren't you? I mean, why else would you be wearing a tiara and poofy gown? Oh, I'm talking a lot. Sorry, I do that. My name is Winter. Like the season.
Princess Sofia	I'm Sofia.
Winter	No, stay away!
Clover	Whoa!
Princess Sofia	Did you do that?
Winter	Uh-huh. Everything I touch turns to ice.
Princess Sofia	That's amazing.
Winter	No, it's awful. When I say everything I touch gets covered in ice, I mean everything. I even had to leave my family because I kept forgetting and trying to hug them. I've been gone a long time and I really miss them.
Princess Sofia	Have you always been like this?
Winter	Oh, no. It was a year ago today when I got the ice touch. There was this witch...
Whiskers	Glacia the Mountain Witch?
Winter	Yes, how do you know?
Clover	That's his thing.
Winter	Well, anyway, every year on Wassailia, Glacia does spells for people, but only if you bring her a gift, so I gathered all the wood crystals I could find, which took me weeks, because, you know, they're wood crystals. I had heard about this princess who could freeze anything just with a touch and I thought, "Oh, that's a cool power." Well, I always wanted to have magical powers because, you know, I'm pretty ordinary, and I thought it would be so neat to be special. So I took my wood crystals and I climbed up to Glacia's palace. There she was, sitting on her throne. I gave her my gift, and she used her magic to give me the ice touch. I thought it would be so great, being able to cover anything with sparkling ice. But then my pet goldfinch, Feathers, tried landing on my hand. And that's when I realized that the ice touch was really a curse. I went back and begged Glacia to take it away, but she said I had to come back next Wassailia with another gift.
Princess Sofia	So you've been waiting all this time to go back?
Winter	And looking for the most special gift I could think of, Ice Lilies. But I haven't been able to find any.
Princess Sofia	We're on our way to get some ice lilies right now.
Winter	You are?
Princess Sofia	Why don't you come with us?
Winter	Okay. No, wait, I can't.
Princess Sofia	Why not?
Winter	'Cause if I touch you, you'll turn into one big ice cube. And I can't let that happen.
Princess Sofia	Oh, don't worry, Winter. We just won't get too close.
Winter	You promise?
Clover	Yeah, you don't have to tell me twice.
Princess Sofia	Come on.
Whiskers	There it is. The Ice Lilies are on that island.
Princess Sofia	But how are we going to get over there?
Whiskers	Swim, I guess.
Clover	Swim?
Whiskers	Aw, is it too cold for the castle bunny?
Clover	You kidding? A tough wild rabbit like me isn't afraid of a little cold water. Let's go swimming. Cold, cold, cold!
Winter	I know a way to get us across. Come on. This is magical ice. It won't break and it's super-sparkly.
Clover	Hey, hey! Hey! It's like I'm skating.
Princess Sofia	Yeah!
Clover	Whoo-hoo. Hey, watch this, triple Lutz. Whoo. All right. And now, where are those Ice Lilies at?
Princess Sofia	Let's spread out and start looking. Are you sure this is where the Ice Lilies are supposed to be, Mr. Whiskers?
Clover	Guess your little birdies aren't so smart after all.
Whiskers	Hey, my little birdies don't lie.
Clover	Well, we've been all over the island, and no Ice Lilies.
Princess Sofia	I was really hoping to get Mr. Cedric a special gift. And help you get rid of your ice touch, Winter.
Winter	You know what I do whenever I feel down?
Princess Sofia	What? Hey. I think there's something up in that tree.
Winter	Ice Lilies!
Princess Sofia	We found them!
Clover	Now we just need to get them.
Whiskers	This is a job for a real wild animal.
Clover	Yeah, me.
Princess Sofia	Careful, Clover.
Whiskers	You wouldn't want to get your dainty castle paws all dirty.
Clover	Uh-huh. Coming through, 'fraidy fox. Oh... Uh-huh, uh-huh. Hey, catch, Sofia.
Princess Sofia	Thanks, Clover!
Clover	Hey, could a castle bunny climb an icy tree this fast? I don't think so. See those lilies way up there? Watch this. Uh-huh. Whoa!
Princess Sofia	Clover!
Winter	I got you! No!
Princess Sofia	Clover!
Winter	Oh! I told you this would happen. It always happens.
Princess Sofia	It was an accident, Winter. Is there any way to melt the ice?
Winter	It's enchanted ice. Only Glacia the Mountain Witch can melt it.
Princess Sofia	Then we've got to get to her palace right away. We'll bring her the Ice Lilies and ask her to free Clover.
Whiskers	I'm going, too. I got you into this, old buddy, and I'm gonna get you out of it.
Princess Sofia	What if Glacia doesn't help us?
Winter	Then Clover will be stuck in this ice forever.
Princess Sofia	How much longer is it going to take?
Winter	We're almost there.
Princess Sofia	Hang on, Clover!
Whiskers	Think warm thoughts, buddy.
Clover	Hot chocolate, mashed potatoes, tomato soup...
Glacia	Who dares enter my domain without so much as a knock on the door?
Winter	Pardon us, Your Witchiness, but there is no door.
Glacia	Oh, that's right. I had it removed. The palace wasn't drafty enough. I remember Miss Frosty Fingers, but who are you?
Princess Sofia	Princess Sofia, Your Majesty.
Glacia	A princess? Really? Well, you certainly have a high opinion of yourself, don't you? Why have you come here?
Winter	I've come to ask you to remove my ice touch.
Glacia	And what have you brought me in exchange?
Princess Sofia	These Ice Lilies.
Glacia	Oh, Ice Lilies. You can put them in the vase with the other Ice Lilies if you like. But you're going to have to get a much better gift if you want my help.
Winter	Another gift? I'll never find another gift before the end of the day.
Glacia	Then I'll see you next Wassailia.
Winter	I can't spend another year like this.
Princess Sofia	Winter... Do you see how upset you made her?
Glacia	She's the one who asked for the power in the first place.
Princess Sofia	Can't you just undo it?
Glacia	No.
Princess Sofia	Why not?
Glacia	I'm in a bad mood.
Whiskers	And how long is this bad mood of yours gonna last?
Glacia	Why don't you check back in a few centuries? Bye-bye now. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Oh, that's right. I had the door removed. Hoo-hoo.
Princess Sofia	Winter? Winter? Winter, where are you? I'm so sorry, Clover.
Clover	Oh, I see a... I see a light. Is it princess time?
Tiana	Oh, sounds like somebody's got the blues. I'm Tiana. And if what Mama Odie told me was right, then I'm here to help you. So what's troubling you, Sofia?
Princess Sofia	Well, if we don't come up with a special gift to give the Mountain Witch, then Winter will have to spend another year all alone, and Clover will be stuck inside this ice.
Tiana	Oh, that does sound like a rough day.
Clover	Tell me about it.
Princess Sofia	There's not enough time to find another special gift.
Tiana	Are you sure, Sofia? The gift I'm giving my family this year is a special meal I'm cooking just for them, made with a whole lot of love. You see, when it comes to finding the perfect gift... ♪ It doesn't matter if it's large or small It doesn't matter what the color is at all A gift you'd find inside a store high on a shelf Or something simple that you made all by yourself It could be plainly wrapped or trimmed with silver bows A huge bouquet or a single rose What matters from the start The most important part A gift should come from the heart The smallest gift can seem just like a dream come true And why it's special is because it comes from you What makes the difference is the feeling and the thought For that's a gift that can't be bought What matters from the start The most important part The gift should come from your heart ♪
Princess Sofia	I understand, but how can Winter find a gift like that before sundown?
Tiana	Well, she may already have the gift she needs, Sofia. My cooking is my gift. Is there something special that Winter can do?
Princess Sofia	There is something she can do. Thank you, Tiana. Winter, I know what gift you should give Glacia.
Winter	You should stay away from me.
Princess Sofia	But I know what to do. You already have the perfect gift for Glacia.
Winter	I do?
Princess Sofia	Your music. It's so beautiful. And it cheered us up when we were feeling down.
Winter	My music? Do you really think that's special enough?
Princess Sofia	I do.
Glacia	Back so soon? Oh, this should be good. You brought another gift?
Princess Sofia	We did.
Glacia	Well, let's have it.
Princess Sofia	Go on.
Glacia	Ha. Ooh.
Princess Sofia	Huh?
Glacia	Oh, there goes my back.
Winter	Are you okay?
Glacia	Okay? I haven't felt this good in a long time. I mean, how would you feel if people only came to see you when they wanted something?
Princess Sofia	Not good, I guess.
Glacia	All I ever get in return is a lot of meaningless trinkets. This is the first time I was given something truly special. So thank you for that. I will grant your wish.
Winter	Really?
Princess Sofia	Yes.
Winter	Oh!
Glacia	Spirits of winter, heed my call. Remove this ice touch, once and for all.
Winter	Ah!
Glacia	It's done. Now you're just as ordinary as you were before.
Winter	Do you know what this means, Sofia?
Whiskers	Uh-uh, uh-uh.
Clover	Sorry to interrupt the hug-fest, but in case you haven't noticed, I'm still frozen in a block of ice.
Princess Sofia	Would you mind unfreezing my friend, too?
Glacia	Oh, why not? All those whom this faun hath frozen shall now be set free.
Clover	Whoo. Thanks, Mountain Witch. I say we hop out of here while the hopping's good.
Winter	Feathers. You're back.
Whiskers	Got to admit, I was wrong about you, Clover. You are one tough rabbit.
Clover	Nah, I was just too cold to cry.
Whiskers	Sorry about all that "castle bunny" stuff. I was just upset.
Clover	Yeah? Why?
Whiskers	'Cause we used to be best buds. And when you went off to the castle, you didn't come around anymore. Guess I kind of missed you.
Clover	I missed you too, Whiskers. But we can still be pals.
Whiskers	Yeah?
Clover	Of course. Hey, why don't you come back with us for Wassailia dinner?
Princess Sofia	Wassailia dinner. I told my mom I'd be back home in time to light the candle. But it's so late. How will we make it back in time?
Whiskers	Relax, Princess. I got this.
Reindeer	Hey, someone need a lift?
Clover	You really do have connections.
Winter	Don't forget these. For your special gift.
Princess Sofia	Oh, right. Do you want to come with us?
Winter	I wish I could. But I've got to get home and see my mom and my dad and my seven brothers and my three sisters and my twenty-six cousins...
Clover	You're gonna have a lot of hugging to do.
Winter	I know. I can't wait.
Princess Sofia	Take care, Winter.
Winter	Happy Wassailia, Sofia.
The Royal Family of Enchancia	Happy Wassailia!
King Roland II	Now, let's open those presents.
Princess Amber	Oh! Just what I wanted! Oh. Thank you.
King Roland II	You're very welcome, Amber.
Prince James	Brilliant!
Princess Sofia	Baileywick... these are for you.
Baileywick	Ice Lilies. They're even lovelier than I remembered. Thank you, Princess Sofia.
Princess Sofia	I have something for you, Mr. Cedric.
Cedric the Sorcerer	Of course you do, Princess Sofia. It's a wand case.
Princess Sofia	I know it's not magical, but I made it myself.
Cedric the Sorcerer	I'll never lose my wand again. This is the best present I have ever gotten. Ever. I have a gift for you as well, Sofia.
Princess Sofia	You do? I love it when it snows on Wassailia!
Cedric the Sorcerer	Well, so do I, Princess Sofia.
Princess Sofia	Happy holidays, Mr. Cedric.
Cedric the Sorcerer	Hmm. Yes, well, it is happy, isn't it?
