Mulan (1998) Animation Edit

A life for a life.

A pendant for balance.

A single grain of rice can tip the scale.

Aaah! Whoo! Aaah!

Aah ha! Hoo hoo hoo hoo!

Aah!

Act! This shall bring you honor and glory.

After this great stone, Humpty Dumpty mess,

Aha! Jump back. I'm pretty hot, huh?

All right, that's it! Dishonor!

All right, that's it! Dishonor!

An impressive military lineage.

Ancestors, hear our prayer.

And for that, I owe you my life.

And I am Yao!

And I do not squeal like a girl. [high pitched squeal]

And I won't leave anything out.

And losin' all your friends? You know, you just gotta...

And now it's your turn.

And silent!

And stop Shan Yu before he destroys this village.

And there's nothin' you girls can do about it.

And this represents strength.

And this,

And tomorrow, the real work begins.

And what are you, a sheep?

And you, o demoted one?

And your point is?

And...

Anyone who acts otherwise

Are we in this together or not?

At least you had good intentions.

Be careful, Captain.

Besides, I've got all the luck we'll need.

Black pine, from the high mountains.

Bow to me.

Boy, that was close.

But don't you worry, okay? Things will work out.

But I am the emperor's counsel.

But I was wrong.

But I'm feeling gracious today, so carry on before I report you.

But look. This one's late.

But the Huns are here.

But you know how it is when you get those manly urges

But you will never bring your family honor!

By building his wall, he challenged my strength.

By order of the emperor,

Call up reserves and as many new recruits as possible.

Can you help me with my chores today?

Captain Li Shang.

Captain, urgent news from the general!

Captain?

Chien Po, get the emperor!

China will sleep safely tonight

Citizens, I bring a proclamation

Come back here.

Come on, boy! Go get her! Go on!

Come on!

Come on! Scare me, girl.

Come on! We gotta help!

Come on. Tell me. Who did a good job?

Come on. Who did a good job?

Day one.

Deceived your commanding officer,

Decides to take her little drag show on the road.

Deliver conscription notices throughout all the provinces.

Did... Did I mention that I was the great stone dragon?

Dinner would be great.

Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow, dis...

Dishonor on your whole family.

Dishonor will come to the family. Traditional values will disintegrate.

Dishonored the Chinese army, destroyed my palace...

Does Fa Mulan live here?

Don't make me singe nobody to prove no point.

Don't worry, Father. I won't let you down.

Down, Bessie. My powers are beyond your mortal imagination.

Excellent strategy, sir.

Excuse me.

Extensive knowledge of training techniques,

Fa Mulan.

Fa Mulan.

Father, I brought you the sword of Shan Yu.

Father, I brought your... Whoa!

Fire!

For I have been sent by your ancestors

For what it's worth, I think you're a great captain.

From General Li. Dear son, we're waiting for Huns at the pass.

From now on, you have my trust.

From the imperial city.

Get out before you get all pruny and stuff.

Get ready, Mulan. Your serpentine salvation is at hand!

Gettin' the top shelf, an entourage.

Go get her? What's the matter with you?

Go to your tent!

Good luck, Father.

Good. Slap him on the behind. They like that.

Guard the door.

Ha, ha. I kill myself.

Ha, I see you have a sword. I have one, too.

Ha! They would not last a minute against the Huns!

Have you awakened?

He's wounded! Get help!

Hel lo!

Hello, Ping. Are ya hungry?

Hello!

Hello! This is the army! Make it sound more urgent!

Hello?

Hey, come on. You went to save your father's life.

Hey, don't look at me.

Hey, dragon, dragon, not lizard.

Hey, I'm making this up as I... go.

Hey, Mulan! I found the lucky cricket!

Hey, what makes you think you're comin'?

Hey!

Hey. I'll hold him, and you punch.

Hi.

Hmm. [chuckles]

Hmm. This way.

Hmph! Not good for bearing sons.

Hold on.

Hold on.

Hold the last cannon.

Hold this. We'll need more luck than I thought.

Honorable ancestors,

Honorable Fa Zhou, I... Mulan!

How 'bout I pop one of your antennas off?

How could you miss? He was three feet in front of you!

How lucky can they be? They're dead.

Huh?

Huh?

Huh? I'm sorry. Did you say something?

Huh. Hmm.

I ain't bitin' no more butts.

I am ready to serve the emperor.

I am ready, baby! Light me.

I am the guardian of lost souls.

I am the powerful, the pleasurable,

I believe Li Shang will do an excellent job.

I can explain.

I can see you. Look at you. You look so pretty.

I did.

I didn't ask for his name. I asked for yours!

I didn't mean for it to go this far.

I do love surprises. [chuckling]

I don't do that tongue thing.

I don't need anyone causing trouble in my camp.

I don't think I can do this.

I don't understand. My father should've been here.

I don't wanna kick the other kid's butt.

I got that job on my own.

I hope you can get your money back!

I knew it. I knew it!

I knew there was something wrong with you.

I knew we could do it. You the man!

I know what this means to you, Captain Li.

I live!

I mean, you risked your life to help people you love.

I mean...

I never want to see a naked man again.

I present to you the sword of Shan Yu.

I promise.

I really don't wanna take him anywhere.

I risked your life to help myself.

I saw them in the mountains. You have to believe me.

I see nothing.

I should have prayed to the ancestors for luck.

I should have your hat for that. Snatch it right off your head.

I should never have left home.

I think it's going well, don't you?

I think it's time we took this war

I think it's time we took this war

I think my bunny slippers just ran for cover.

I tire of your arrogance, old man. Bow to me!

I tire of your arrogance, old man. Bow to me!

I was just washing. So now I'm clean, and I'm gonna go. Bye bye.

I was this close.

I will die doing what's right.

I will go forth and fetch Mulan.

I will serve the emperor in my father's place.

I will take the main troops up to the Tung Shao Pass...

I won't take any chances, General.

I... ring the gong.

I'd have to bring her home with a medal to get back in the temple.

I'll expect a full report in three weeks.

I'll get that arrow, pretty boy,

I'll have to face my father sooner or later.

I'm doomed, and all 'cause Miss Man

I'm going to... pray some more.

I'm gonna hit you so hard, it'll make your ancestors dizzy.

I'm just nervous. I've never done this before.

I'm ready.

I'm travel size for your convenience.

I'm travel size for your convenience.

I'm working on it!

I'm... I am the great stone dragon. Good morning!

I've got an idea.

I've heard a great deal about you, Fa Mulan.

I've missed you so.

I've missed you, too, Baba.

I've worked too hard to get Mulan into this war.

If I reveal her,

If I was my real size, your cow here would die of fright.

If she's discovered, Fa Zhou will be forever shamed.

If we die, we die with honor.

If you ask me, she should've brought home a man.

If you're gonna stay, you're gonna work.

Imperial scouts.

Impersonated a soldier,

In case I forget something.

Insubordinate ruffians!

Intimidating? Awe inspiring?

Into our own hands.

Is she allowed to do that?

Is the most rare and beautiful of all.

It can't be.

It is an honor to protect my country and my family.

It looks like you're out of ideas.

It was the only way. Please, believe me.

It will be the most beautiful of all.

It would have been warm if you were here on time.

It would mean a lot if you'd come back us up.

It's all attitude. Be tough, like this guy here.

It's freezing.

It's not like it'll kill ya.

It's your first day of training. Listen to your teacher and no fightin'.

Just because I look like a man doesn't mean I have to smell like one.

Just one chance. Is that too much to ask?

Keep your eyes open. I know they're here. Yah!

Khan, let's go home.

Khanny, baby. Hey, we need a ride.

King of the rock!

Know what I'm talkin' about?

Leader of China's finest troops.

Let me say somethin'. Anybody who's foolish enough to threaten our family,

Let me see what you got.

Let me see your conscription notice.

Let's get this show on the road! Cri Kee, get the bags.

Let's hear it for Ping! The bravest of us all!

Let's move it. Rise and shine.

Look, you get porridge, and it's happy to see you.

Look. This tattoo will protect me from harm.

Looks like our new friend slept in this morning.

Make a note of this.

Make way for the heroes of China.

Man, you are one lucky bug.

Man. All my fine work. Pfft.

Member... what? [stammering] But...

Mmm. Too skinny.

Most impressive.

Move out!

Mulan, what's this?

Mulan, you dishonor me.

Mulan, you should already be in town.

Mulan!

Mulan!

Mulan!

Mulan!

Mulan.

Mushu, awaken!

Mushu, if you're so worried, go stand watch.

My children, heaven smiles down

My debt is repaid.

My little baby is all grown up and... and savin' China.

My little baby, off to destroy people.

My name is Mulan.

My, my.

No matter how the wind howls, the mountain cannot bow to it.

No one will listen.

No way we survive this. Death is coming!

No, the swiftest.

No, they're men. You have to act like them, so pay attention.

No!

No! Your great granddaughter had to be a cross dresser!

No.

No.

No.

No. Send your troops to protect my people.

No. That was vile.

No. The greatest troops of all time. [chuckles]

None of your excuses. Now, let's get you cleaned up.

Not quite.

Not yet. An apple for serenity.

Now all of China knows you're here.

Now, awaken the great stone dragon.

Now, pour the tea.

Now, that's what I call Mongolian barbecue.

Number one in his class,

Of all days to be late.

Of course, Ping did steal my...

Oh, he's so cute!

Oh, hi, guys. I didn't know you were here.

Oh, I will. I won't let you down. This is... I mean... [clears throat]

Oh, sure. Save the horse.

Oh, Yao, you've made a friend.

Oh, yeah? Well, I think Ping and I can take you.

Oh. Ha, ha. Pretty hot, huh?

Oh. My elbow!

Oh. Sorry, Ling.

Oh. Thank you.

Oh. Who am I fooling?

Ohh...

Okay, gentlemen, thanks to your new friend, Ping,

Okay, okay, how about this?

Okay, people, look alive. Let's go. Come on. Get up.

Okay, this is it. Time to show 'em your man walk.

Okay. Any questions?

Once the general reads my report,

One man from every family must serve in the Imperial army.

One man may be the difference between victory and defeat.

One moment. You seem to be missing something.

Ooh. Tough guy.

Oops.

Order. People, order.

Ouch! Something bit me!

Pack your bags, Cri Kee. We're movin' out.

Pack your bags, Cri Kee. We're movin' out.

Perfect. Now we'll pull them to safe... ty.

Perhaps you wouldn't mind bringing some.

Picky, picky, picky.

Ping, we have to fight!

Ping! What's wrong?

Play nice, unless one of the other kids wanna fight.

Please help her.

Please help Mulan impress the matchmaker today.

Please, sir, my father has already fought bravely...

Prepare to fight.

Punch him. It's how men say hello.

Put it out! Put it out! Put it out!

Quiet and demure.

Ran away from home,

Ready, Mushu?

Recite the final admonition.

Refined. Poised.

Report tomorrow to the Wu Zhong camp.

Restrain him!

Rests in your claws.

Rise and shine, sleeping beauty.

Say that to my face, ya limp noodle!

See to it that this woman is made a member of my council.

Shan Yu is leading them.

Shan Yu.

Shang, go!

She will be.

She's trying to help her father.

Shoulders back, chest high, feet apart, head up and strut.

Silence! You would do well to teach your daughter

Sir?

Snake! [screaming]

So a couple of guys don't rinse out their socks.

So heed my word! 'Cause if the army finds out you're a girl,

So let's start over.

So the world will know what you have done for China.

So when I looked in the mirror,

So your family will know what you have done for me.

So, tell me what mortal needs my protection, Great Ancestor.

So, you'll die for honor.

Soldiers!

Some king of the rock. Aah!

Sorry, Your Majesty.

Sorry. Uh...

Stay inside.

Stony? Oh, man, they're gonna kill me.

Stop!

Stop. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Take it, Cri Kee!

Than you are to be captain.

Thank you for volunteering. Retrieve the arrow.

Thank you.

Thanks to our brave warriors.

That creature's not worth protecting.

That is enough.

That Mulan was a troublemaker from the start!

That's better. Much better. Let's go.

That's great. Except you forgot, Since we're out of potpourri,

That's it! I'll make Mulan a war hero.

That's just 'cause this needs a little spit, that's all.

That's just great. Now what?

That's my tough lookin' warrior. Get out there and make me proud.

That's right. Now, wake up the ancestors.

That's the master plan. Ah, you done it now, man.

The Chang family!

The doctor said three cups of tea in the morning...

The Fa family.

The flower that blooms in adversity

The general may be your father,

The general.

The greatest gift and honor is having you for a daughter.

The Hsiao family.

The Huns are alive! They're in the city!

The Huns have invaded China.

The Huns have struck here, here and here.

The matchmaker is not a patient woman.

The penalty is death!

The point is we will be sending a real dragon to retrieve Mulan.

The quickest way to the emperor is through that pass.

The soldier from the mountains.

The truth is, we're both frauds.

The Wen family!

The Yi family.

Then you have to kick the other kid's butt.

Then you're gonna have to trust me. And don't slap me no more.

There are a couple of things I know they're bound to notice!

There are no council positions open, Your Majesty.

These are the family guardians.

They completed their training.

They popped out of the snow! Like daisies!

They'll never reach the emperor in time.

They're gifts, to honor the Fa family.

They're very manly and... tough.

This close to impressin' the ancestors,

This doll came from a village in the Tung Shao Pass,

This guy's messin' with my plan.

This is your chance to prove yourself.

This represents discipline,

Those boys are no more fit to be soldiers

Through the Tung Shao Pass.

To find someone who will believe me.

To guide you through your masquerade.

To hold her tongue in a man's presence.

To please your future in laws,

Two, three. Break it down. Hup, two, three. And work it!

Uh oh.

Uh, home is that way.

Uh, my ancestors sent a little lizard to help me?

Uh, notes.

Uh, Stony?

Uh... you forgot your helmet.

Um, he doesn't talk about me much. [chuckles]

Um, reflect before you snack...

Um... you...

Upon the Middle Kingdom.

Urgent news from the general.

Vengeance will be mine!

Very nice. You can sit by me.

Very well. You can have his job.

W well, actually, it's your helmet, isn't it?

Wait! You forgot your sword.

Was to prove I could do things right.

Watch over Mulan.

We are counting on you to uphold the family honor.

We can avoid them easily.

We clear on that? All right.

We could just close our eyes and swim around.

We need help.

We should return it to her.

We started this thing together, and that's how we'll finish it.

We'll make better time to the Imperial city

We'll set up defenses around your palace immediately.

We'll toast China's victory at the imperial city.

We're in a war, man! There's no time for stupid questions!

We're needed at the front.

We're not finished!

We're the only hope for the emperor now.

We've got a long way to go.

Well, I'm here to play his game.

Well, let's go kick some Hunny buns!

Well, myself, I kind of like that corn chip smell.

Well, sort of.

What a mess! Stand aside!

What if somebody sees you?

What is it?

What? But, Mama, I had to...

What? What do you mean you're not lucky?

What? What? I'm a real dragon!

What's the matter? You've never seen a black and white before?

When Chi Fu believes you're ready,

Where is she? Now she's done it.

Where the imperial army is waiting for us.

While I blow our secret with my stupid girlie habits.

White horse hair. Imperial stallions.

Who knew you'd end up shamin' him, disgracing your ancestors

Who spit in her bean curd?

Who's the smartest doggy in the world?

Whoa ho ho!

Whoo! Sign me up for the next war!

Will answer to me.

With all due respect, Your Excellency,

Would you like to stay for dinner?

Y'all don't think I can do it. Watch this here.

Ya gotta go fetch Mulan!

Yao, aim the cannon at Shan Yu.

Yao.

Yeah, 'cause I owe you a knuckle sandwich.

Yeah. Ahh, you ain't worth my time.

Yeah. This ain't gonna be pretty.

Yee haw!

Yep, this cricket's a lucky one!

Yep, this cricket's a lucky one!

Yes, my name is Ping.

Yes, sir.

Yo, Rocky, wake up!

You are not worthy of this spot.

You are the craziest man I've ever met.

You don't belong here, Mulan. Go home.

You don't meet a girl like that every dynasty.

You fight good.

You gotta learn to let these things go.

You had your chance to protect the Fa family.

You have a tissue?

You know, she gets it from my side of the family.

You like him, don't you?

You may look like a bride,

You men owe me a new pair of slippers!

You must also be poised.

You must demonstrate a sense of dignity...

You must go after her. She could be killed.

You need both to reach the arrow.

You owe me big.

You said you'd trust Ping. Why is Mulan any different?

You stole your father's armor,

You took away my victory!

You will assemble swiftly and silently every morning.

You will join us, Captain.

You will stay and train the new recruits.

You!

You'll spend tonight picking up every single grain of rice.

You're dismissed.

You're lucky? [laughing]

You're, um...

Your ancestors never sent me. They don't even like me.

Your father would have been very proud.

Your Majesty,

Your Majesty, I can explain.

Your Majesty, the Huns have crossed our northern border.

Your troops will never see battle.

Your walls and armies have fallen,

Your worst nightmare!

[all chattering] Come on! Empty it! Empty it!

[all] Hoo ah! # Did they send me daughters

Chicken boy. [screaming] Chicken boy?

Citizens, I need firepower. [gasping] Who are you?

Come on. Don't be such a gir... [crunching]

Come on. Hup, hup, hup. [moans]

Could I just take that back? [grunting]

Do I look like a sucker to you? [chirps]

Do you see them? Yes.

Fa Zhou? The Fa Zhou? I didn't know Fa Zhou had a son.

Father, you can't go. Mulan!

Get out of range! [shouting]

Hi. I'm Ling. [nervous chuckle]

I did it to save my father. High treason!

I have to do something. Did you see those Huns?

I saw that. What?

I'd like a pan fried noodle. Oh! Sweet and pungent shrimp.

It's Ping. Ping?

Just say the word and I'm there. Mushu...

Let a guardian bring her back. Yes, awaken the most cunning.

Let me hear you say aaah! Aaah!

Let's move it, heifer. [snorts]

Ling. How 'bout Ling? His name is Ling.

Mulan. ...and three at night.

Mushu! Way ahead of you, sister.

Mushu. Mushu?

Mushu. You're a girl again, remember?

No, send the wisest. [Great Ancestor] Silence!

No! Come on!

No! I... Yeah, right, sure.

No. Then what is it?

Not to mention, they'll lose the farm. My children never caused such trouble.

Oh. Thanks, Mushu.

On the roof! Look!

One moment. [screams]

Pfft! Hygiene! [men laughing]

Please, you have to help. [harrumphs]

Present. Speaking without permission.

Quickly. Quickly! [falcon screeching]

She'll never be worth anything. Listen, you pompous...

She's a hero. 'Tis a woman.

Snake! Snake! [men continue screaming]

That's close enough. A ghost.

The troops just left? They what?

Then who's the loser? [chirps]

They all became acupuncturists. Well, we can't all be acupuncturists.

Tiny. Of course.

Try, uh, uh, ah, Chu. Ah Chu.

Um... You don't have a plan?

Well? [clears throat]

What's your name? [stammering]

Whooo ooo! [screaming]

Wish me luck. Hurry!

Yao, relax and chant with me. [growling]

Yes, sir. Very good then.

You are a lucky bug. [squeaking]

You lied to me? [chirping]

You shouldn't have to go! Mulan...
