00:00The Two Ferdinands and the Rescued Princess
00:04Once upon a...
00:06Ahem.
00:07In a town called...
00:09There was a...
00:14A baby.
00:16He's gonna grow up to be brave and noble.
00:20Eh?
00:21Eh?
00:22Eh?
00:23Eh?
00:24Eh?
00:25Eh?
00:26Eh?
00:27Eh?
00:28Eh?
00:29Eh?
00:30Let's call him Ferdinand.
00:32Aw.
00:33Little Ferdinand.
00:35Eh?
00:36Eh?
00:37Eh?
00:38Ah.
00:39How will we bring him up?
00:41Don't worry.
00:42Things will fall into place.
00:46I must find a godfather to bless him.
00:49How about Tom?
00:52Tom was an old man who'd settled in the town.
00:55Nobody knew anything about him.
00:58He was, however, adored immensely for his kind nature.
01:06Congratulations!
01:09Would you be his godfather?
01:12I'm just a poor man.
01:15Your blessings would mean everything to us.
01:18Your blessings would mean everything to us.
01:21They went back to the warm house,
01:23where baby Ferdinand slept peacefully.
01:28Ferdinand, eh?
01:29You'll grow up to do great things.
01:32Here, a gift.
01:34Oh, but...
01:35Listen, when Ferdinand turns 17,
01:38he must take what's in this box up to the hills.
01:42But why?
01:45It's a surprise.
01:49Ferdinand grew to be kind and loyal,
01:52earning himself the name Ferdinand the Faithful.
01:56Finally, it was his 17th birthday.
02:00Happy birthday, son.
02:02Wow, that cake must have been expensive.
02:06Worth every penny.
02:08And here, you got me a gift.
02:11Well, actually, it's your godfather's.
02:13My godfather?
02:15He passed away years ago.
02:17His name was Tom, and he gave you this.
02:21They told him about old Tom's instructions.
02:25Ferdinand was perplexed, but took to the hills.
02:30Hmm, it's a key. What do I...
02:33Oh!
02:34The key glistened and pulled him forwards.
02:38Um, what's here?
02:40Oh!
02:42In a burst of splendor, a magnificent castle appeared.
02:47H-hello.
02:49Wow, is this all for me?
02:53Ferdinand was amazed at his fortune.
02:56He galloped down to his parents' home.
03:01They were startled to see the horse
03:03and overjoyed about the grand castle.
03:06The castle is yours to live in.
03:09Just us? What about you?
03:12I'm going to travel the world.
03:14I've always wanted to.
03:21He had grown into a fine young man,
03:24and so his parents bade him farewell.
03:30As he traveled, he came across new scenes and people.
03:34Hmm, I'll need to find a job soon.
03:37Ow!
03:39Oh, you poor thing.
03:43Oh, thank you, kind stranger.
03:47You can talk!
03:49All beings can talk.
03:51Only the kind-hearted can hear us.
03:53Anyways, I'm extremely grateful to you.
03:57It was no biggie.
03:59No biggie? Boy, you've saved my life.
04:02Here, take this.
04:05The fish gave Ferdinand a flute
04:07made out of seashells and pearls.
04:10It's beautiful.
04:12You may play it as a normal flute,
04:15but if you ever need help,
04:17play it over the water's edge,
04:19and I shall come to you.
04:22The fish waved his fins and swam away.
04:25Ferdinand, surprised at this encounter,
04:28rode on with his new gift.
04:31He soon neared a village.
04:36Hey, you! Stop!
04:39Give me some water!
04:41Oh, um, sure thing.
04:43Thanks, uh...
04:45The name's Ferdinand.
04:47Really? My name's Ferdinand, too.
04:49But everyone calls me Ferdinand the Unfaithful.
04:52Funny, I'm Ferdinand the Faithful.
04:55Muhahaha!
04:57Since we share the same name,
04:59give me a lift to the village.
05:02Ferdinand was annoyed at this impolite man,
05:05but he agreed.
05:07The two visited the village.
05:09So, where are we going?
05:11I'm going to find a job.
05:13Oh, yes, I need one, too.
05:17Hey!
05:19Oh, um, sorry.
05:21Hey, you can't just take things like that.
05:24Oh, who cares?
05:26He got his money somehow.
05:28Somehow? I had to pay for you.
05:30Well, we share the same name,
05:32so can't I share your money, too?
05:34Muhahaha!
05:36Ugh!
05:38Ferdinand the Unfaithful
05:40joyfully stuck to Ferdinand the Faithful.
05:44What's up, Ferdi?
05:46Don't call me that.
05:48I just found out the king needs an attendant.
05:50I think I'll apply.
05:52Ooh, I'll come, too.
05:54Who knows? I may get the job before you.
05:56Muhahaha!
05:58The two visited the palace
06:00and met with the king.
06:02Hmm.
06:04You've got the job, Ferdinand.
06:06Thank you, your...
06:08Huh?
06:10Uh, hmm.
06:12I meant that, Ferdinand.
06:14Eh.
06:16What about me, your majesty?
06:18The king didn't like this rude man,
06:20but he gave him a job either way.
06:22Life at the palace was quite nice
06:24for Ferdinand the Faithful.
06:26Not so much for the Unfaithful one.
06:28Ugh!
06:30One day, the king sat lamenting
06:32over his daughter,
06:34Princess Lalisa.
06:36She'd been kidnapped
06:38and locked up in a tower
06:40and the king's army
06:42couldn't retrieve her.
06:44Ferdinand the Unfaithful
06:46saw his chance.
06:48Your majesty,
06:50Oh!
06:52What do you want?
06:54I heard about the princess
06:56and, well,
06:58why don't I, Ferdinand,
07:00try saving her?
07:02You?
07:04Well, everyone else
07:06has tried their luck.
07:08The king looked at Ferdinand the Unfaithful.
07:10As untrustworthy as he seemed,
07:12he was strong and well-built.
07:14I'm leaving for business
07:16and will be away for a while.
07:18I'm leaving for business
07:20and will be away for a while.
07:22Take what you require.
07:24Uh, of course, your majesty.
07:26Make sure you return with her.
07:30Heh heh heh heh.
07:32Oh, Ferdie.
07:34Huh?
07:36Ahem.
07:38The king has ordered you
07:40to rescue Princess Lalisa.
07:42What?
07:44You must retrieve her back safely.
07:46But who?
07:48The king told me personally.
07:50You're lying. I'll ask the king.
07:52He's gone.
07:54On a trip.
07:56Now? I...
07:58I still don't believe you.
08:00Fine. When the king returns,
08:02you'd better be brave enough
08:04to tell him your excuses.
08:06This can't be happening.
08:08Good luck.
08:10Ferdinand the Unfaithful
08:12danced away in glee.
08:14Heh heh heh heh.
08:16Now I'll just hide somewhere
08:18until Ferdie returns.
08:20Then I steal the princess from him
08:22and I'll get the reward for saving her.
08:26What do I do?
08:28The king's army couldn't save the princess.
08:30How will I?
08:32With my help.
08:34Huh? Who?
08:36Me, over here.
08:38Hi.
08:40Ah, you can talk.
08:42Of course I can.
08:44Remember what the fish said.
08:46But...
08:48Why didn't you speak all this time?
08:50Didn't feel like it.
08:52Now listen closely.
08:54I know of this tower
08:56and its path is guarded by great giants
08:58and humongous birds.
09:00Did you start talking to give me bad news?
09:02I'm trying to help you.
09:04The giants adore sweets
09:06and the birds love bread.
09:08So we'll fill up the food
09:10with a sleeping potion.
09:12And while they're asleep,
09:14we can rescue the princess,
09:16but courage and kindness
09:18are always rewarded.
09:20Now go and get everything ready.
09:22Soon the ship was laden
09:24with sweet-smelling sweets and bread.
09:26Hmm.
09:28Don't do that.
09:30You may fall asleep
09:32before the giants do.
09:34They traveled for days
09:36in the vast ocean
09:38Who are you?
09:40My name's Ferdinand.
09:42And I'm...
09:44a horse.
09:46And why are you here?
09:48We...
09:50We...
09:52Answer him.
09:54We're here to save the princess.
09:56Hmm?
09:58What?
10:00We're here to save the princess.
10:02Hmm?
10:04We're here to save the princess.
10:06Hmm?
10:08What?
10:10Ha ha ha. He's joking.
10:12We're actually here to offer you some sweets.
10:14At the mention of sweets,
10:16the giants grew hungry.
10:18Whaaa?
10:20Over here.
10:22Help yourselves.
10:24They threw handfuls of the sweets
10:26into their mouths.
10:28Nom nom nom.
10:30Any minute now.
10:32Mmm.
10:34Mmm.
10:42Wow.
10:44They sailed a little away
10:46and suddenly there were
10:48droves of birds
10:50almost as huge as the ship.
10:52Bread.
10:54Give them the bread.
10:58Soon
11:00Spotting the bread, the bird swoops down to it, but as they waited, nothing happened.
11:09Why aren't they falling asleep? I don't know, I...
11:15The bread, it doesn't smell of the sleeping drought at all.
11:19On finding out that the bread didn't hold any sleep potion,
11:22they stared at each other, horrified. Should we just jump into the water?
11:28The water? Of course, the fish! Ferdinand took out his flute
11:38and played it over the waves. The tune flowed into the ocean and within minutes, a head popped out.
11:44Hello there! Hello, please help us!
11:49They told the fish everything. It nodded its head and disappeared into the ocean.
11:55Did it run away? Fish don't run, they swim.
12:02Just then, they saw something swirling under the water.
12:06Every fish in the ocean had been called to help and as they swirled around,
12:12the birds above saw them. They grew dizzy and soon...
12:16Hooray! They did it! Horse? Ugh, my eyes! Thank you!
12:30Anytime, good man! They sailed along and finally came upon the tower.
12:38They proceeded to it, searching for the entrance.
12:46Grr! When life offers no doors, make one!
12:51Ferdinand found the princess, who was under a sleeping spell.
12:56She was carefully placed inside the cabin and the ship sailed back to the kingdom.
13:02They passed no birds, but the giants were still asleep.
13:08At long last, they returned.
13:22They're back! I must act quickly!
13:25The king had returned, but Ferdinand the unfaithful had remained in hiding.
13:31Ferdinand the faithful had asked for a carriage to carry the sleeping princess.
13:36My chance!
13:39Oh, hey, let me out! I'm going to get the reward!
13:48Where am I?
13:52Oh, princess, you're awake! Excellent!
13:56Ferdinand the unfaithful entered the palace with the princess.
14:01L-Lelisa!
14:03Father!
14:08You did it! You actually saved my daughter!
14:12Oh, well.
14:15No, I'm the one who saved her!
14:19Ferdinand entered the room and chaos ensued.
14:23The king looked from one Ferdinand to the other.
14:26This Ferdinand is a liar, your highness.
14:30You're the liar!
14:35Oh, wait, father! The man who rescued me played a tune!
14:45Ferdinand the faithful immediately picked up his flute.
14:50It seems he's the one who saved my daughter!
14:54It seems he's the man who rescued me!
14:58N-no, but it was m-m-me!
15:03The king ordered Ferdinand the unfaithful to be locked up for his deceit,
15:08and Ferdinand the faithful was rewarded for his bravery.
15:20Ooh, is that for me?
15:23I couldn't have done it all without you.
15:26Me either!
15:28The kingdom celebrated the princess's return.
15:31She and Ferdinand grew close, and eventually...
15:39Congratulations! Tom would be thrilled!
15:43I'm so proud and happy for you!
15:46Please, I'm the reason they met!
15:49You talk!
15:54And so, the tale ends on a note of loyalty and love.
15:58As it was said, courage and kindness are always rewarded.
16:03I said that!
16:05Yes, you need it!
