"Here's a list of work for the night." "But it's already late!" "It's never too late to work." "I am so tired of taking care of everyone." "Can somebody be grateful?" "We're grateful!" "Time for bed, my little crocodiles." "Good night, mom!" "May you dream tonight of your fairytale prince-charming." "Prince!" "Prince!" "Mom always makes the best jokes." "What are you hiding there, Zolushka?" "A love letter?" "Or a portrait of your fiance?" "Show us quickly!" " Show it now, Zolushka!" " Give it here now!" "She wanted to bite me there!" "Fairytales!" "Here's where they go!" "Mom, Zolushka smokes!" "Yesterday..." "I had a strange dream." "She's singing!" "Day and night came together into one magical moment."

"Zolushka, have you been crying?" "No, dad, you're just seeing things." "I know who hurt your feelings." "You have to understand, she's a difficult person." "I understand." "No, you don't." "I myself can't understand why on earth I married her!" "I wanted what's best, but it turned out as you can see..." " To bed now!" "Okay, I'll go to bed." "You should go too." "It's late." "Yes, I'll go soon..." "Only I have a couple more tasks to finish." "I hope you dream... of a real prince." " Prince?" " Yes, prince, who's right now thinking about you." " I'm counting to two!" " Coming, coming, my dear!" "A prince?" "So he's just sitting and thinking about me at this very moment?" "About me?" "Milord!" "Yes, Princess." "What are you thinking about right now?" "About the snow." "Really?" "Yes, why not?" "What exactly are you thinking about the snow?" "I am thinking how up in the sky on every cloud... there stand windmills." "That's enough, Milord." "Isn't it time for you to think of something else besides all these fairy tales?" "Like what, for example?" "For example, about marriage!" "Weirdo!" "Just look at him!" "Princesses don't suit him." "Dumb girl!" ""What are you thinking about, Milord?" "What are you not thinking about, Milord?"" "Dad, did you hear that?" "I wish I hadn't." "Come here." "We're going to have a serious talk." "Why were you so cold with her?" "With whom, Dad?" ""With whom, Dad?" With the English princess - that's who!" "But she's such a fool." "Fool or no fool, but she's studying at Harvard." "Dad, you also studied at Harvard." "Say something in English?" "Alright..." ""Not in war, make love." If you don't know what to do, go make love." "Dad, you have only one thing on your mind!" "That translation is incorrect." "Incorrect, but to the point." "Anyways, at your age it's time to become interested in beauty." "Didn't you notice how she was looking at you?" "Didn't you notice her big beautiful hands?" "What were you looking at altogether?" "She's had a cannon missile go through her head!" "Maybe she is a bit shell-shocked." "But what a cutie!" "Go to bed!" "Tomorrow morning you have a meeting with the Swedish princess." "I'm tired of all these princesses!" " I see, you're tired!" " Yes, I'm tired!" " I'll marry you off!" " And I'll divorce!" " I'll marry you again!" " And I'll divorce again!" " And I'll marry you again!" " And I'll divorce again!" "What a child!" "My babies, you may enter." "Now the King has gone to bed." "Time for me go too." "A little shower." "Quick!" "Five minutes to get ready!" "Look at you lying around, while other people are up and working." "Who are you after that, Zolushka?" "The very worst creature ever!" "Assignment number 98:" "Go to the cemetery at night, collect all the yellow leaves, bring them home and make an artistic display." "Assignment number 100:" "Mom, how do you write the letter 100?" "Write it with an "O." Once you get married, all this will be irrelevant." "So what are you jumping around for?" "You're not at a ball." " Have you completed all the work?" " Yes." "Oh, then a prize awaits you." "A new list of work to be done in the night!" "Stop!" "Turn around!" "Stand straight!" "Hands out of pockets!" "You see, Zolushka..." "I really care for you." "Beacause a real good girl must be... kind, smart... beautiful... honest, gentle... even tempered... and even tempered, like me." "Okay?" "And remember, Zolushka, you're not living in a fairy tale!" "What is a smart woman to do with herself?" "No one here understands me." "My good deeds and acheivements go unnoticed." "I am gifted at all levels." "But not fully appreciated." "If it wasn't for the circumstances, I could be leading armies into battle." "If it wasn't for the circumstances, I'd get a dog instead of a husband." "And in so many ways I am actually perfection." "But my medals and titles will find me." "No doubts about that." "And all my dreams will line up in a row in front of me." "Admirers of all types... will fall to my feet once again." "The more I get to know people, the more I love myself!" "Myself!" "Myself!" "What is a smart woman to do with herself?" "No one here understands me." "My good deeds and acheivements go unnoticed." "And in so many ways, I am actually perfection." "But my medals and titles will find me." "No doubts about it." "And all my dreams will line up in a row in front of me." "Admirers of all types... will fall to my feet once again." "The more I get to know people, the more I love myself!" "The more I get to know people, the more I love myself!" "Love myself!" "Love myself!" "I love myself." "I love myself." "So, Zolushka... listening to music are we?" "And who's going to do the work?" "Charles Perrault?" "Forgive me, Princess, but I believe it's "check" for you." "Where did you learn to play chess so well, Prince?" "I never studied it." "It's just that you're playing much worse than me." "I'm tired of your chess, Prince." "How else can I entertain you, Princess?" "Well, please, do think of something." "Should I tell you a joke?" "Nope." "Try again." "Would you like me to recite you a poem?" "Since you don't have any other offers, let's go with the poem." "Hello, there!" "Are you bothered by something, Your Majesty?" "As if you didn't know, Doctor." "Why do you always respond to a question with another question?" "Why do you always ask so many questions?" "I can't work in these conditions!" "That's it!" " The session is over." " Doctor, Doctor, wait..." "Your Majesty, do you know what's here?" "If it's pain after a banquet, it must be the pancreas." "By the way dry liver of a wild boar is quite helpful for that." "What were you asking me, Doctor?" "I was wondering what has been bothering you?" "I am bothered by the fact that my only son is such an idiot." "Did you see how he acts with women?" "And what women!" "Yes, the son has much to learn from his father." "If only he wanted to learn!" "My son is an ungrateful non-learner." "He's right now with the Swedish Princess." "You should see this woman!" "She's gorgeous!" "Like a Scandinavian Goddess!" " And what do you think?" " What?" "Has he had enough sense to hug her, kiss her, or at least take her by the hand?" "No!" "Most likely he's just sitting there and spinning her some romantic nonsense." "Your Majesty, I think I am hearing screams." "Screams?" "My boy is making progress!" "Ophelia!" "It's Shakespeare!" "My happiness!" "Remember my sins in your prayers!" "Oh, nymph!" "Thank you very much, Prince, this was simply... simply..." " Unforgettable!" " Exactly!" "Unforgettable!" "Who's there?" "Quiet!" "I think I was finally able to win her heart." "Dear son, you will drive me to the grave." "Someone, call the doctor!" "Grandma, why do you have such big ears?" "To wear earrings, you fool." "Why do you have such a long nose?" "I have a long nose?" "!" "I'll show you a long nose!" "Long nose?" "I'll show you a long nose!" "Long nose?" "So it's long, so what?" "Long nose... is the pride of aristocracy!" "Dad!" "What happened, Zolushka?" "Again?" "I told her that she has a long nose." "Oh, God!" "Why did you tell her that?" "I don't know, it just happened." "I was thinking of something completely different." "You're always daydreaming about something different." "It's more fun that way." "Of course, it's more fun." "I also think of something very distant, when I'm working with all these bolts and gadgets." "About what?" "About how to make a magic clock." "A magic clock?" "Oh, wow!" "What's that?" "It's a clock that has hands which go backwards." "A clock that can bring back a day from the past." "What people cannot do... they cannot bring back the fire of a love that has passed." "What people cannot do... they cannot slow down the passage of time." "Too bad!" "What people cannot do... they cannot step into the same river twice." "One wish gets fulfilled, the other wish is forgotten along the way." "Time passes by, time laughs at me." "And only at night the gong stricking of the clock reminds me of the fact..." " that you can't turn back time." " Oh no!" " That you can't fix the past." " Oh, no!" "No one can solve the mystery... where do all these years go?" " That you can't turn back time." " Oh, no!" " You can't fix the past." " Oh, no!" "No one can solve the mystery... where do all these years go?" "What people cannot do... they cannot forget about the hassles of everyday life." "What people cannot do... they cannot slow the passage of time, unfortunately." "Time passes by, time laughs at me." "And only at night the gong stricking of the clock reminds me of the fact" " that you can't turn back time." " Oh no!" " You can't fix the past." " Oh, no!" "No one can solve the mystery... where do all these years go?" " That you can't turn back time." " Oh, no!" " You can't fix the past." " Oh, no!" "No one can solve the mystery... where do all these years go?" " That you can't turn back time." " Oh, no!" " You can't fix the past." " Oh, no!" "No one can solve the mystery... where do all these years go?" " That you can't turn back time." " Oh, no!" " You can't fix the past." " Oh, no!" "No one can solve the mystery where do all these years go?" "If only I had a magic clock, everything would've been totally different." "How dare you cry in front of me... about him?" "How dare you cry in front of me about him?" "Evict me from this land, but spare my life!" "You liar!" "You should die!" "Let me live just this night!" "Give me just one more day!" "You dare to resist?" "Your Highness, how do you find our Kingdom?" "Yes, Prince... it is so... big!" "Really?" "I always thought that it was the smallest one in the world?" "No, it's not the smallest..." "I've seen smaller ones." "Only half an hour more, please..." "You promiscuous woman!" "I forgot to tell you... that's my father over there!" "Dear son, it's you!" "How was I?" " It was very realistic!" " Thank you!" "I was even worried about your fellow actress." "No need to worry, she's almost been revived already." "Where's your princess?" "Why did she not come to congratulate me on my openning?" "She left." "What?" "Back to Japan." "So you didn't like this one either?" "!" "No, Dad, I almost started liking her." "But when you proceeded to choke your fellow actress so realistically..." "What else could I have done?" "Stab her through with a sword?" "Alright." "I'll go." "Once there are more princesses, call me." "Don't wistle!" "Or your house won't have any money." "My sisters aren't that bad." "Today Dafna gifted me her broken mirror." "And Brungilda... took it away." "And Stepmother is not so bad." "If that's the case, then what does a bad person look like?" "It's not easy to be a young girl." "Especially, when you have such relatives." "Mr. Astologer are you asleep?" "Get away, you unclean spirits!" "Maybe I'm not completely clean... but why yell so!" "Your Majesty..." "Forgive me, I didn't recognize you." "Please sit, Your Majesty." "What should I do with my son, Mr. Astrologer?" "Maybe the stars have some advice?" "Your Majesty, why does the Prince need to marry?" "The one who can convince the Prince to marry will be awarded the King's Order!" "Your Majesty, the Prince must be distracted from his daydreams." "But how?" "How?" "Mr. Astrologer, look to the stars again!" "Your Majesty, you must organize a ball." "A ball?" "A huge fantastic royal ball!" "Different... like a rare name, not understood... like a new word, he keeps tumbling further and further down, like a boat, sailing down the river." "Down the river." "Down the river." "Not understood... like a small island lost in a foreign ocean." "To bring him back... is no longer simple, like that boat that's sailing down the river." "Down the river." "But I was never like that!" "Who did he take after?" "Maybe I was not around enough as a father?" "Who can I leave the throne to when old age finally hits?" "And how will such a kid be able to handle the crown?" "But I was never like that!" "Who did he take after?" "Maybe I was not around enough as a father?" "Who can I leave the throne to when old age finally hits?" "And how will such a kid be able to handle the crown?" "Different... like a rare name, having departed... so unnoticeably." "To catch up to him... will not be easy at all, like to a boat that has already left sailing down the river." "Down the river." "But I was never like that!" "Who did he take after?" "Maybe I was not around enough as a father?" "Who can I leave the throne to when old age finally hits?" "And how will such a kid be able to handle the crown?" "But I was never like that!" "Who did he take after?" "Maybe I was not around enough as a father?" "Who can I leave the throne to when old age finally hits?" "And how will such a kid be able to handle the crown?" "But I was never like that!" "Who did he take after?" "Maybe I was not around enough as a father?" "Who can I leave the throne to when old age finally hits?" "And how will such a kid be able to handle the crown?" "But I was never like that!" "But I was never like that!" "But I was never like that!" "And how will such a kid be able to handle the crown?" "So how was my singing?" "Incredible, Your Majesty!" "Come see me at 9:00." "And you at 10:00." "Your time has come!" "Do you hear the trumpets?" "After a long hiatus..." "King's recreation season is now open!" "A big King's Ball is coming!" "Mom, do I look like Vassilisa the Beautiful?" "Knock on wood!" "Girls, it's so great that we bought everything in advance!" "Because now before the ball there's not a single thread in town stores." "Zolushka!" "I'm here." "You sneaked up on us." "You were eavesdropping?" "No." "You called, so I came." "Don't talk back!" "Keep your face humble, Zolushka!" "Zolushka, you must sow me a... a very very beautiful dress from something bright." "For example, this material." "Zolushka, I want a really big bow!" "As big as you can make it!" "I want a big one too!" " But I may not have enough time!" " What?" "!" "Don't you dare, Zolushka!" "Don't you dare!" "So, girls, we're going to the hairdresser, and then it's manicure and pedicure." "Finally you will go to have wrinkle reduction because luckily I don't need it yet!" "And remember..." "Beauty is a terrible power!" "And the more of it you have the more terrible it is!" "Follow me, my little crocodiles!" "They didn't even ask me, if I want to go to the ball." "Had they asked me, I'd say, "I really wanna go!"" "Why are you trembling so, young man?" "I thought I saw something." "You need to marry." "Doctor, you too?" "You think I don't need the King's Order?" "I do need the King's Order!" "Did she finish it in time or not?" "Zolushka, you were able to finish it in time after all." "Zolushka, see, you can do it, when you want to!" "Good job!" "Girls!" "Today you have a consultation with a professional Matchmaker." "Mine!" "I'm off!" "Bye, mom!" "Stop, Zolushka." "Zolushka, tell me, where's the front and where's the back?" "Now, the bow - that's right!" "It's in the right place!" "Zolushka, tell me... would you like to go to the ball?" "Yes, I would." "If you want too much, you'll never get it." "Girls in such dirty clothes are not allowed at the ball." "If you only she had the appropriate dress..." "You may even add "crystal slippers" to that." "And her own carriage!" "Then we'd have not a Zolushka, but a real Princess!" " The bow is spectacular!" " But mine is more beautiful!" "We're princesses!" "And we want to be even more beautiful!" "Girls!" "I have exactly 5 minutes for you." "Sit down." "And listen." "As you know," "I specialize on Princes only." "I don't waste my time on regular men." "So what distiguishes a Prince?" "First of all, the crown." "Second, the imperial gaze." "Third, the royal posture." " Are you writing it down?" " No." "What do yo do, when you finally meet your Prince?" "First of all, keep calm, though it's terribly hard to do." "Second, you should smile at him." "Show me your smiles." "You better not smile." "Just bow and throw him a coquettish glance." "Like this?" "Almost." "Now, to the most important... how do you make the Prince propose to you?" "How?" "I'll tell you all about it now." "Remember, girls, a couple of important points... they'll be very helpful, when the time comes." "When you say goodbye to your girlhood... doesn't matter, if it's for the 1st or 10th time." "I remind you, don't right away ask for the 3-story castle, gold, diamonds, and furs." "Most importantly I ask... don't intoduce him to your mother, don't scare away the future husband." "Remember, girls, a couple of important points." "Don't slam the door without a very good reason." "Because we are all hunters in some sense." "The men hunt the animal." "And we hunt the men." "Once again, I remind you, don't right away ask for the 3-story castle, gold, diamonds, and furs." "Most importantly I ask... don't intoduce him to your mother, don't scare away the future husband." "Once again, I remind you, don't right away ask for the 3-story castle, gold, diamonds, and furs." "Most importantly I ask... don't intoduce him to your mother, don't scare away the future husband." "Most importantly I ask... don't intoduce him to your mother, don't scare away the future husband." "Your Majesty, everything is ready." "Should we start?" "We must check that we haven't forgotten anything." " Have you cut the confetti?" " Yes." "Have the fireworks been made ready?" "How much?" "Alright." "Is the ice ready?" "Have the musicians been served wine?" " Yes!" "Why on Earth did you serve wine to the musicians?" "Godmother!" "Is that you?" "!" "I'm so happy to see you!" "Why are you standing?" "You should sit?" "Would you like some tea?" "No, thank you, my dear!" "What bird is this?" "I wish you'd ask, whether I want some tea." "Forgive me, please..." "You drink tea?" "No, I don't." "But it's important to ask." "I understand there's a ball taking place in the kingdom today?" "Yes, Godmother." "And you probably really want to go there?" "Honestly, no." "No need to hide the truth from me." "I remember my very first ball like it was yesterday!" " Should I sing to you about it, my dear?" " I've never heard you sing!" "You've never seen her dance either!" "I'll sing you next time." "'Cause you don't want to be late, do you?" "Or all the men will get grabbed up by others." "Who will allow me in dressed this way?" "You are going to have a small transformation right now." "A transformation?" "Does it hurt?" " It even feels pleasant." " Be quiet!" "Zolushka, close your eyes!" "One, two... three!" "One more time..." "Wow!" "What did she say?" " She's in heaven!" " Got it." "END OF PART ONE" "The big King's Ball..." "I declare... open!" "TV Channel INTER /Ukraine/ and TV Channel One /Russia/ present" "Everyone important is already here!" "Champagne for me!" "The girl wants to party!" "Would you please draw my full-body portrait?" "a Melodrama Production" "Oops, lost my shoe there!" "Sneaking up on a teenager, the creep?" "Lady, are you on the guest list?" "What questions?" "Of course I'm on the guest list!" "Let me find it... producers Vlad Ryashin Aleksandr Faifman" "Don't you have another guest list?" "This is no guest list, it's the national census count." "This doesn't count!" "How can I not be on the guest list?" "Are you on the guest list?" "Who are you anyways?" "I'm not on the guest list." "a movie of Semyon Gorov" " Please, Duchess, come in..." " Thank you!" "Lady, just a second, you're still not on the guest list." "See that?" "Again!" "Again I'm not on the guestlist." "I need to file a lawsuit!" "Why is it that she can go in?" "And I teenager-girl cannot?" "Because, young lady, I am Matilda Tousse." "Thank God I am not a Matilda." "But I really wanna "Tousse"!" "("tousovatsya" = to party)" "ZOLUSHKA" "I hope these are the refreshments?" "If these are refreshments, then why not refresh myself, right?" "So, who's on the menu?" "Get lost." "Only beggars around." "Hey, girls, any good men around here?" "Still scanning the field." "At the last ball, girls, I was introduced to ten new men!" "So why did you not find a husband at the last ball?" "I am a lady of high demands!" "An average man is not good enough for me!" "So what kind of man do you need?" "I need such a man... that you three could not even imagine such in your wildest dreams!" "It's New Year's Eve, so where's my champagne?" "I'll tell it all right now." "Even if you are a little over 30, there's still hope for you to marry a Prince." "The sun shines down on everyone equally... on both the princess and the store clerk." "You and I are no longer children." "We don't need all that "mommy" advice." "I'd conquer him, I'd tame him... without all that ladies etiquette nonesense." "He'd walk up to me, I'd turn away." "He'd flirt with me, I'd leave." "He'd start crying, I'd smile." "That's how it would go!" "He'd be waiting for my answer for a whole month." "I'd drive him into a fit of panic." "Only there is no Prince." "Where could he be?" "I don't get it." "Even if you are a little over 30, there's still hope for you to marry a Prince." "The sun shines down on everyone equally, only it seems to stay cloudy over our capital city." "He'd walk up to me, I'd turn away." "He'd flirt with me, I'd leave." "He'd start crying, I'd smile." "That's how it would go!" "He'd be waiting for my answer for a whole month." "I'd drive him into a fit of panic." "Only there is no Prince." "Where could he be?" "I don't get it." "Let's pull it together." "Girls, let's do it!" "Forget all sorrow!" "I pay for everyone!" "Tab is on me!" "Give it to me, one more time!" "He'd walk up to me, I'd turn away." "He'd flirt with me, I'd leave." "He'd start crying, I'd smile." "That's how it would go!" "He'd be waiting for my answer for a whole month." "I'd drive him into a fit of panic." "Only there is no Prince." "Where could he be?" "I don't get it." "I don't get it." "No, I really don't get it." "I think I've had too much!" "Oh, I almost forgot about the shoes." "I think my first ballroom slippers should be just right for you." "By the way, where are they?" "They are in a box on top of the dresser." "Female memory!" "Now you are ready for the ball!" "But how will I get to the ball?" "In such a dress I can't walk on foot the whole way, can I?" "Young people have become so demanding nowadays." "This pumpkin will become your carriage." "These mice I will turn into horses." "This one..." "I will turn into a driver." "So many miracles and all for me?" "Remember the most important thing, Zolushka." "You must be back home before midnight." "Exactly at 12:00 midnight the magic will lose all its force." "The carriage will once again be a pumpkin." "The horses will become mice." "The carriage driver - you know who." "And the gorgeous dress will once again become your everyday outfit." "That's how it'll be." "Yes, Godmother, I understand everything." "Thank you!" "Have a good time, Zolushka!" "Oh, Godmother, how can I ever thank you?" "Bring me back something delicious." "Just jocking!" "And remember one more very important thing:" "good girls don't kiss on the first date." "Let's go!" "Though exceptions to that are possible!" "I'm afraid that she has forgotten everything already... because this is her very first ball." "Now's a great time to sing." " You know what I regret?" " What?" "I regret that ill-fated day, when I taught you to speak." "Today..." "Tears will melt away like the snow." "The night will be decorated with... the sparkle of white lights." "Today..." "Wrapped in the cloud of time... an angel will walk over the Earth... through the chilly weather." "Don't... hurry the time you are given." "Every fate... carries a magical thread of mystery." "And if... the heavens send you the gift of love." "Then you will find happiness... during any season of the year." "In the white cradle of snow... tenderness was awakened by love." "Lady Winter... has done it all herself!" "She simply created a miracle... and then disappeared into the snowstorm." "Lady Winter... has done it all herself!" "It's possible... this is magic." "But no one... will be able to figure it out." "From where... did the music come into my heart?" "Maybe it came from the heavens above?" "On a moonlit midnight." "In the white cradle of snow... tenderness was awakened by love." "Lady Winter... has done it all herself!" "She simply created a miracle... and then disappeared into the snowstorm." "Lady Winter... has done it all herself!" "She simply created a miracle... and then disappeared into the snowstorm." "Lady Winter... has done it all herself!" "Lady Winter... has done it all herself!" "Lady Winter... has done it all herself!" " Put on the crown." " Dad, I look like an idiot in that." "Without a crown you look like an idiot." "With the crown you look like a prince." "By the way, I've read that the crown causes reduction in male vitality?" "Where did you read that?" "A family with two daughters... title unknown." "Let them come in." "The daughters are disappointing." "But the mom is very much alright!" "Lady, are you married?" "Just a little bit." "The world has so many problems." "I was looking at the world map... there are so many details to it." "I too have maps, but they are in my office." "In your office?" "Maybe we should meet, Your Majesty, in your office then?" "In an informal setting." "In due course." "By the way, I've always voted for you." "I'm serving my fourth term already." "I hope you do dance?" "I also sing." "So few princes nowadays." "Yes." "I feel like constantly eating at the ball." "And I'm constantly craving pickles!" "Where are they?" "Young lady, have you been told it's rude to interrupt?" " Really?" " Really." "Have you been told that Musketeers are not asked to speak here?" "But you're simply a rude woman!" "Very nice to make your acquaintance." "Do you know who I am?" "Do you know who I am?" "I don't have the honor of knowing." " That's it then." " That's it then." "I think that balls are my most favorite passtime." "KING'S BALL" " KING TV Coverage" "Hello!" "Hello!" "Young lady... incognito... is here." "Who are you, beautiful stranger?" "Right now I am simply your guest." "Is that not enough, Your Majesty?" "This is exactly how real princesses hold themselves... because you are a princess?" "I've guessed that right away." "I'm no princess, Your Majesty." "Only your incredible modesty... forces you to hide your aristocratic origins." "It is so sweet!" "Thank you, Your Majesty." "No, it is I who am grateful to you for your visit." "Your Majesty, I haven't gained too much weight?" "Your Majesty, your looks are dazzling!" "Your shoulders are soo..." "Please tell me do you... dance?" "No." "I mean, yes." "But..." "Don't say another word!" "I would like to invite you to dance." "You have such..." " What?" " Such gaze!" "Shall we dance, Princess?" " Son!" " Yes, Dad." " I asked her first!" " No, I did!" "Don't argue with me, I'm older." "And I'm younger!" "I'm the King!" "And I'm the Prince!" "You don't even know how to dance." "And you..." "You use the curling iron to curl your hair." "That's utter nonesense!" "Everyone knows that my hair curls naturally." "Alright... go ahead and dance, have fun!" "And I'll go and be sad." "Maybe I'll eat something..." "That's all my upbringing!" "Forgive me, but I'm such a clutz." "It's okay." "You just haven't learned dancing yet." "But very soon you'll master it!" "Forgive me..." "Ah... "a little bit"?" "How's your husband?" "Boring as a bumble bee." "This lady even has a sense of humor." "I'm definitely starting to like her." "Do you dance often?" "Only with the shovel for coal." "What an imagination you have!" "What is a shovel?" "You don't know what a shovel is?" "!" "I don't even know who "coal" is." "Your Majesty," "I want it." "Hi!" "What do you want, my dear?" "You know, Your Majesty, lately I've been terribly conserned about the political affairs of our Kingdom." "And I would love to have an exclusive chat with you... one on one." "One on one?" "That suits me very much!" "There are so many people here and they are all looking at us." "At first I kind of liked it, but now I'm getting annoyed by it." " Do you like the stars?" " Yes." " Let's run away from here then?" " Sure!" "Looks cool!" "Some ball going on?" "As usual, they weren't expecting us?" "It's alright." "We'll get in." "Do you have a dream, Prince?" "A dream?" "Of course, I have one." "Is it a secret?" "No, the whole Kingdom knows about it." "I dream of... becoming a writer!" "A writer?" "You really like that idea?" "Of course, I like it." "It's so great:" "you come up with stories and other people believe them." "Only you understand me!" "Do you have a dream?" "Right now I dream that midnight never comes." "What a wonderful girl you are!" "I don't even know your name." "What have you already done to become a writer?" "Quite a lot." "First of all, I already have a pen." "Second, I already have a real writer's pipe I got from a real writer." "I also have glasses." "Only I can't see anything in them." "You're so funny in those glasses and with that pipe!" "Your Majesty," "I don't need very much." "Simply a place in your court." "Consider it done." "And a title!" "I guarantee you a title as well, my Viscountcie." "Baroness?" "No." "Countess?" "Never." "Duchess?" "No." "Knyaginya?" "No." "Listen, what do you want, my dear?" "To become The Queen!" "You are not like any of the princesses I've ever met before." "What if I'm not a princess at all?" "You must be a princess and no one else!" "You're so funny, Prince!" "You called me here because you wanted to say something?" "I almost mustered up the courage... and... just a sec..." "I..." "I..." "I..." "I'll be right back." "Zolushka!" "You're smoking?" "!" "No." "This isn't my pipe." "Who's is it then?" " Prince left it here." " Prince?" "How did you get here?" "Where did you get this dress?" "What time is it, dad?" "Quarter to twelve." "So?" "Midnight is so soon!" "Why are you crying?" "Exactly at midnight the magic will end, and I'll once again become a regular girl." "This ball will become just a happy dream." "A magical dream." "Can't anything be done?" "No!" "Because to stop time is beyond the powers of even any magician." "You are so sure of that?" "What is this?" "Not "what?" but "who?" We are ambassadors." "From up north." "You don't have beautiful women up north?" "So you come to a foreign kingdom?" "Plenty of beautiful ones." "But few faithful ones." "Alright, go have fun." "Barbarians!" "We've crashed this place to show off our style." "We got loaded to bring you one wild bash." "What?" "You didn't expect us?" "We see the world as a beautiful picture." "Pour us some and let's sing, like the band ABBA, "Happy New Year!"" "There's nothing to lose!" "You only live once!" "Do you hear her saying "YES" to you already?" "Happy New Year!" "Where are those curvy bodies?" "We've searched for them everywhere!" "We've sailed the oceans." "Sang songs that we have aplenty." "What's up with the sour face?" "Come over here now!" "Love is a sweet wine that runs down your mouth... and YES!" "There's nothing to lose!" "You only live once!" "Do you hear her saying "YES" to you already?" "YES!" "There's nothing to lose!"

"I present to you... the great celebrity of modern times... the dream of young girls... please welcome..." "Trubadur!" "[Singing in Ukrainian]" "My sweet kitten!" " I want him so bad!" " I want him so bad!" " I love him so!" " No, I love him more!" " Should I set your wig on fire?" " No." "I wish this ball would never end." "But it's time for me to go." "But why, Princess?" "Because I'm not a princess." "It's midnight soon." "What difference does it make, if you're a princess or not?" "Even if you were the poorest girl in the whole Kingdom, I would still..." " I have to go now." " Not now!" " I'm very sorry, but I can't do otherwise." " Please, stay!" "Where will I find you?" "Where your heart tells you!" "Go!" "Yesterday..." "I had a strange dream..." "Day and night came together into one magical moment... and a kind angel appeared before me." "Across the world those in love keep dreaming of one thing." "Across the world it's night outside." "Snowstorm don't blow so hard." "My heart don't be so sad." "Please tell me how to find her!" "Yesterday..." "I met my love." "I am ready to follow her to the end of the Earth."

"My heart don't be so sad." "Please tell me how to find her!" "Please tell me how to find her!" "What would you not do for your beloved daughter?" "Dear daughter!" "Daddy?" "Horses!" "Can you hear me, Prince?" "Bring me that girl!" "Or at least find out her name!" "Who, Prince?" "If I die, tell her that I loved her." "Things are really bad." "I'll have to resort to medicine." "No need for medicine." "I'm already much better." "So you haven't seen that girl?" "Which one?" "The one that's more beautiful than all the rest." "I've seen many girls." "And each one of them was even more beautiful than the previous." "Oh, these young people..." "just wanna dance at the ball." "And who's going to drink the medicine?" "Doctor is." "Dad," "I think I'm hopelessly in love." "Are you talking to yourself?" "Hello, Doctor." "With that Princess?" "I totally understand you." "Dear son, we have finally found a bride for you!" "No we haven't." "We've lost her." "Don't be a wimp!" "If you really need her, then she'll be with you." "And if she's not with you, then you don't need her." "Don't say that!" "What's this?" "Her slipper." "She lost it, when she was running away." "Hers?" "How tiny it is!" "I have a brilliant idea." "I'm thirsty!" "Sister, I'm thirsty!" "Where am I?" "I'm thirsty." " Shouldn't have had so much champagne." " Leave me alone!" "My stomach hurts!" "That's because you ate 3 cup cakes more than I did." "Keep your mouth shut, you great mathematician." "You think I don't know that you don't know how to count?" "To count your marriage offers no math skills are needed." "Shut up!" "You stuck up bride!" "Kings order!" "The owner of the slipper needs to be found." "The slipper that was lost during King's ball." "Any information about the shoe will get you a reward." "Get up, you idiots!" "Or you'll miss your happiness!" "Mom, she wanted to kill me!" "The one who finds the shoe is guaranteed complete safety... as well as the heart and hand in marriage of the young Prince." "Signed by His Majesty, the King!" "Get ready." "Set." "Go!" "Quit with the noise!" "Time has come to try on the shoe." "How many of you there are!" "As many as the stars in the sky!" "And all of them want marriage." "No wonder!" "Even I wouldn't mind getting married to such a man." "You've tried on the shoe though?" "Yes." "It's not my size." "Who's next?" "I'm next!" "You, madam?" "Well, not exactly me... but my two lovely daughters." "Well, let's try it on then." "Stand aside, girls." "Stand aside." "Get up." "Let me do it." "Are you sure this is your shoe?" "I'm traumatizing by such questions." "Of course it's mine." "Whose else would it be?" "That's it!" "The Prince's bride has been found." "Immediately call the Prince and the King." "But this girl looks nothing like the one last night." "By wedding day her looks will improve." "I promise you that." "My looks will improve so much..." "you won't even recognize me, Astrologer." "Our Prince sure has quite a taste in women." "Leave!" "Stop it." "We'll find a prince for you too." "Oh well... we call the King." "I am so happy!" "Mommy, what about me?" "Don't worry, my little one, I'll find someone for you too." "Unfortunately, we can't marry off two girls to one prince." "I don't want just somebody, I want the Prince!" "Not everyone is so lucky, sister!" "His Majesty, the King!" "Well, have you found my son's bride?" "Where?" "Where's she?" "I don't know how to break this to you, Your Majesty." "There she is." "Bride of the Prince!" "Mom, we're being filmed!" "I want to send a hello to my family!" "Stop... one, two..." "Mom, does it hurt?" "You'll take the pain, little fool." "Are you sure that this is her?" "Of course, this is her." "Haven't you recognized me, daddy?" "To be honest... no." "My little crocodile, go give daddy a kiss." "Where?" "Daddy!" "Oh, I'm so hurt!" "Daddy!" "Daddy don't leave us!" "Mommy!" "I ate some snow." "Would you like to try on the shoe?" "This is Zolushka." "You want her to get the shoe dirty with soot?" "Nevertheless, I insist." "Put it on." "To the palace immediately." "Everything is ready for the wedding!" "Why are you stepping on me, scoundrel?" "I am so happy!" "It feels so great to be a bride!" "But I don't even know your name." "Just call me Zolushka." "Zolushka!" "Do you agree to marry the Prince?" "I do." "And you, Prince, do you take Zolushka to be your wife?" "I do." "By the royal powers bestowed upon me..." "I pronounce you... husband and wife!" "By the way, you may now kiss the bride." "And everyone else kiss too!" "One more happy healthy family." "I'll even say a match made in heaven." "Across the world those in love keep dreaming of one thing." "Across the world it's night outside." "Snowstorm don't blow so hard." "My heart don't be so sad." "We were able to find our love." "My God, how fashionable you are!" "I was always on your side, I always defended you, by the way!" "I never made you do the work." "I was always helping you and took care of you." "Well... who else wants to marry?" "Speak up, while I'm in a good mood!" "Your Majesty, can I get a divorce?" "Who are you?" "I'm Zolushka's father." "Oh, my friend, how well I understand you!" "You are now free!" "You are completely free!" "Across the world those in love keep dreaming of one thing." "Across the world it's night outside."

"Mr. Astrologer." "Isn't that right, Mr. Astrologer?" "Your Majesty, I really don't know..." "He's good enough." "So does this mean that no one needs me?"
