Sofia the First

All right, class.

It's time to finish up your paintings.

We've been so lucky to have

Such a majestic model pose for us today.

Looking good, minimus.

Maybe just hold your head up a little bit higher.

Oh sofia, I don't know why anyone would want to paint me.

I'm not very tall, my mane needs a trim...

I've been hitting the oat bag pretty hard lately, too.

oh, minimus.

What's so funny?

Oh,nothing.

Lovely work, children.

Just lovely.

I think that will do, sir gilliam.

Thank you, minimus.

good boy.

Phew!

How'd I do?

You were great, minimus!

Oooh, I must be having a good mane day.

Now let's move on to our next art project:

Building your very own dream castle.

Class: Ahhhh.

Think about what you would want in your perfect castle--

It can be anything and everything!

Let your imaginations run free.

Then you'll build a model castle--

And bring it into class--

For "show and tell."

And because this is such a--

Big project.

We're going to pair you up!

Because working with others makes everything more fun!

Now our partners will be...

Umm...

Oh, dear. Where did I put my glasses?

Oh! Thank you, flora.

All right.

Hildegard and amber.

Both: Perfect.

James and zandar.

Clio and hugo.

Jun and rupert.

And finally, sofia and...

Vivian.

Princess vivian?

Who's that?

Uh-oh.

Probably hiding behind her easel.

Vivian?

Hi.

Oh.

Vivian?

Hi, I don't think we've really met before.

I'm sofia.

Hi, sofia.

So, do you wanna come over to my castle to work on the project?

Um, well, no, I don't think so.

I could go to your castle instead.

Well, I guess we have to work on the project somewhere.

Great! How about this afternoon?

Today?

Okay, sure.

I gotta go. Bye.

See you later.

Sorry you got stuck with vivian, sofia.

She is... Strange.

I've even heard that her parents are gnomes.

And she lives in a cave full of glow-in-the-dark bats.

I heard she has a pet dragon.

Really? How do you know that's true?

Well, we don't for sure.

Because vivian never talks to anyone.

And no one has ever been to her castle.

Good luck, sofia.

Hey!

Are you guys working on your dream castle?

Yup. We're not sure what we're going to make yet--

But whatever it is, it's going to be really, really huge.

And when we're done, we're going to knock it all down!

Brilliant!

Oh, sofia, there you are.

Here I am.

I've been looking everywhere for you.

The coach is waiting to take you to vivian's.

I know.

But I think james and zandar need me. Right, guys?

Nope! We're good.

Okay.

I guess I'm ready to go then.

Whatever we do, our castle has to have a cannon.

A big one.

So... Is there a reason

You don't want to go to vivian's?

How did you know?

Because moms know everything.

Well...

Everyone at school says vivian is strange.

Hmm. Why do they say that?

I don't know.

No one really knows her.

Well, have you tried talking to her?

Mm-hmm. But she barely said a word.

Hmm. Well...

You're not going to know what vivian's like

Until you get to know her better.

Maybe you're right, mom.

I'm glad we agree.

Now go on and get your things.

You don't want to be late. Okay.

What do you even bring to a castle

That's full of bats and gnomes?

What you need is some back-up, princess.

I'll go with you.

Do you know how little you are?

And how soft and fluffy you are?

Hey! There's a lot of toughness

Crammed into this soft, fluffy package, missy!

I really would feel better if your toughness came with me.

Yeah....

Just don't let the bats and gnomes

Scratch clover behind the ears.

Man: Whoa!

Here we go.

Don't worry, princess. I got your back.

Wow. This is definitely not a cave.

Here come the gnomes! Ahh!

Welcome, sofia.

I'm cecily, vivian's mother.

Hi.

We're so delighted you're here.

you're not a gnome.

What was that, dear? I said...

You have a lovely home.

Oh, thank you.

Vivian.

Why don't you show sofia your room?

Okay, mom.

Follow me, sofia.

Clover: What are those?

They're just statues, clover.

I hope.

Clover, you can relax now.

No cave. No bats. No gnomes.

I don't think any of those stories are true.

Okay!

What's that? Oh!

It's just my pet rabbit.

I hope it's okay that I brought him.

Sure.

I have a pet, too.

What... Kind of pet?

A dragon.

A dragon!?

Whoa!

She's adorable! Thanks.

I'm sorry if I was acting a little nervous before.

I was, well...

Afraid to come over here?

No... Not at all.

Maybe a little.

The girls at school told me some stories--

About the gnomes and the bats

And the caves and the strange noises?

Just the gnomes and the bats.

How did you know?

I've heard pretty much all the stories.

They don't even realize I'm standing right next to them

When they're talking about me.

If you know they're making up stories,

Why don't you tell them the truth?

Well... I, um, see--

I have a hard time talking to new people.

I guess I'm a little...

Shy?

Yeah.

That's okay. I understand.

So, should we get to work on our dream castle?

Yes, great idea.

We can work in my room.

Come on in. Clover?

Why don't you and crackle get to know one another

While vivian and I work on our dream castle.

Great! See you soon.

Hi!

Hey.

I'm crackle!

And I'm really excited to meet you!

whoa, sparky!

What's with the flame throwing?!
