What is all this hullabaloo?
"A message for Princess Uberta,
from the king."
Now, now, you are Uberta?
[CHUCKLES] Oh, yes, from head to toe.
Oh, good, good.
"Dear Uberta, I am dead.
As your grand-uncle through my fourth wife, thrice removed,
who you once met at a food bazaar when you were 3,
you are now the queen.
[GASPS]
And, therefore, your husband is the king.
Here are the keys to the castle.
The big one sticks, but just give it a quick twist.
Best of luck. The king."
I'm queen!
And you're the king!
[LAUGHS]
MAX: Mm-hm. He was right about that key.
UBERTA: Quick twist, dear. Quick twist.

Sounds perfectly dreadful.
Ten crowns, working together to spread good

Just so.
Can't he do it?
I'm not in the bloodline, dear.
Can I push this off on him?
Indeed you may.
Because I have a cause to pursue.
This day turned out differently than I expected.
[CHUCKLES]
Oh, that Wixom.
She snatched up the best cause.
I'm not so sure.
I knew you would have the answer!
Do you? Tell me you do!
Well, I wonder if the plight of unwanted dogs
might be more lasting.
Let me get this straight.
Your cause is gonna be "Save the Dogs."
Yes, and I need you to help me find the perfect poster dog.
There's no poster dog here.
Nothing but mutts that need to be rounded up every week.
Well, if that's your attitude, no wonder there's no poster dog!

What will you name them?
UBERTA: This, That, and The Other.
Well done, Uberta.
[♪♪♪]
UBERTA: Why do I have to speak to the Council of Crowns?
It's your big moment.
Don't let them see you sweat.
Queen Uberta and King Maximillian of Chamberg.
Come, please.
[ALL LAUGH]
Today, King Maximillian,
you join the Council of Crowns.
I invite you to address us.
Thank you, King Sebastian.
And I, in turn, invite my wife to say a few words.
If Sebastian wanted her to speak,
he would have asked her.
I was just about to say the same thing!
[COUGHS]
I would like to tell you about my paws.
[GASPS] I mean, cause! I don't have paws, of course.
But my friends do. My doggie friends.
They have paws.
[BOTH GROAN]
Hang in there, Bertie.
Oh, how many of man's best friend
lay in cages, as we speak,
or roam the streets in want of food and love?
Yes, I speak of the unwanted dogs.
Aren't dogs Queen Wixom's cause?
[GASPS] She's not going to like that.
Won't each of you take the paw of a sad and lonely dog today?
I'm in.As am I.
I will pledge my support as well.
[CLAPPING]
[EXCLAIMS]
B-but what about all the unwanted cats?
The poor kitties--Save the dogs!
Bravo, Bertie! Whoo-hoo!
"Save the dogs." Psh.
Let's turn the topic to the thieves
who are raiding our crops and herds!
We need to catch and jail
every one of those thieving barbarians.
Edgar's right.
We'll build more jails if need be.
Yes! Jail the barbarians!
Barbarians?[BOTH GASP]
Oh.Hm?
My father came from these people.
And I never once saw him bring an ax to the dinner table.
[CHUCKLING]
It would be better
if we called them what they really are:
Hungry people who just need work.
Work? Who will hire thieves?
Any landowner who sees the wisdom in hiring workers
over building jails.
[CHUCKLING] You really think you can strike a deal
between landowners and thieves?
Maybe not.
But this Council is the greatest force for good in the world.
Don't we owe them our best effort?
I move we send King Maximillian to talk with them.
No. Let him fail.
I echo the motion. All in favor, stand.
[♪♪♪]
The majority agrees.
[♪♪♪]
I hate doing this.
Let's make it quick.[ROOSTER CROWS]
Mmm. That sounds tasty.
Here, boy. Come on, come on.
Come on, boy. Come here.
Good boy.
MAX: It's not a dog.
Easy, now. I'm alone and unarmed.
Cousin Max?Cousin Peter!
You've put on some weight.
[CHUCKLES] You look good.
King Maximillian?
Hey! You can't run forever!
He's right. He's seen us. He knows me!
What are we gonna do, then?
I do have a proposal from the Council.
Do you mind?Sorry.
We could kidnap him and hold him for money.
You won't get anything from the Council.
But my wife, she loves me,
and she'll probably pay a little.
Let's give him to the pirates.
To the pirates it is.
Come on. Seriously?
Quiet.Come.
Do you know what it took
to get the Council to even let me come here and talk to you?
They wanna build more jails!
And that's where you're gonna spend the rest of your lives,
unless you listen to me.
I think I can get you work.
And not just you but everyone in your situation.
No one hires people like us, Max.
We won't know if we don't try.
Guys, come on!
You're not getting away with it this time!
Lord Romberg!King Maximillian?
You've put on weight. Oh, but you look good.
Everyone looks so good tonight.
What? Why are you here?
I'll cut to the chase.
These men will never steal from you again
if you give them work.
[LAUGHS]
You want me to hire thieves?
Exactly. And I'm not gonna lie, they'll need training.
This one can't tell the difference
between a rooster and a dog.
If you do this,
all the other landowners will follow your lead.
[EMPHATICALLY] And the stealing will stop.
Come by in the morning.
[♪♪♪]
And by the way, I haven't put on an ounce.
Thanks, cousin.
Phew!
[WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY]
Max...
...audacity!Seen Max?
Oh. The big hero?
[CHUCKLES]
[♪♪♪]
King Maximillian.
I'm not too proud a man to admit when I've been proven wrong.
Well done brokering that deal.
Got lucky, I guess.
King's Rule Number 1:
Take credit for your accomplishments,
or someone else will.[CHUCKLES]
I keep hearing your cannons are the best in the world.
Credit accepted. You see how that works?
[♪♪♪]
Mm. The trout en croute is fabulous,
don't you think?
What are you hiding from me?
[CHUCKLING NERVOUSLY] Me? Nothing.
[WHIMPERS] Queen Uberta
has also chosen dogs as her cause.
[GASPS]
[FUMES]
"Dear Wilhelmina.
Your gift for my coronation
is a one of a kind."
Special... delivery, Highness.
[WIXOM READING TEXT ON CARD]
I'm flattered that you have stolen my cause.
Nevertheless, it gives me no choice
but to challenge you to a dog show!
"I gleefully accept.
And I apologize ahead of time for winning."
[CHUCKLES]
"No apology necessary, I'm sure."
"Are you?""Stop writing me!"
"I will.""Good!"
"Great! P.S.
What is a dog show?"
[♪♪♪]
The ducks have landed.Yes!
Queen One's about to take the first bite.
Is it good?Oh, the best I've ever had.
She likes it!Yeah!
Oh, Aubri.[GASPS] Wait!
I may have bitten off more than I can chew.
Now she hates the aftertaste.[GROANING]
What do I know about a dog show?
Going up against Wixom's poodles is a tall order.
You will need help.But what kind of help?
These potatoes are wonderful.
Queen One finds the potatoes confusing.
Mm...
Let me think.
Oh, dear. They baffle Queen Two as well.
You'll need someone very clever
who can train them to do fantastic things.
Yes! We must prove
that you don't have to be a purebred to be loved.
You also have to feed the dogs right, so their coats shine.
[GASPS] The beets have given Queen Two hives!
How to feed a dog...
Please, universe, send me someone to help!
Please, tell me what I can do!
Thank you, universe.
Now, that's a ham fit for a king.
And a queen, of course.
[BOTH GROWLING]
[BARKS]
[WHINES]
I'll feed you later! Shoo!

Bertie, we've got a problem with Who, What, and Whatever.
This, That, and The Other?Yeah, those guys.
UBERTA: I think you're both seeing things.
I made up a dog skating on turkeys?
Who tore my pants to shreds, then?
There, you see?But they're faking!
UBERTA: They are not![SNORING SOFTLY]

Do I have your attention now?Why, you--
Berta! The new queen from Chamberg! Enchanted.
Dr. Balthazar Rogers.
Professor, scientist, and genius.
What would it take to draw you away from this dreary classroom
into the most interesting project on earth?
My job is far from dreary!
You'll have all the money you need and more.
And yet, at times, it can be tedious.
What is this project, may I ask?
You will prove to an unbelieving world,
against all odds and all conventional thinking,
that stray mutts can perform just as well--
Nay, better than purebreds.
I'll be a dog trainer?
Oh, I see. I'm afraid you lack what's required for the job.
No, no, now, wait just a hot nanosecond.
No, no. I can see that you lack
the necessary vision-hyphen-fortitude.
Vision-Hyphen-Fortitude is my middle name!
My parents couldn't decide.
Nevertheless--I'll do it!
Your contract.
Mark my words, these dogs will be doing ballet and algebra
by the time I'm done with them.
I'm developing the queenly skill of manipulation.

Except for one last item.
My good friends, I am stepping down as chair of this Council.
In doing so, it is my prerogative
to nominate the next chair of the Council.
And so I shall.
What?
But he's barely joined the Council!
This Council has never allowed seniority
to determine its future.

The nomination awaits a second.
I will allow King Maximillian's good friend the honor.
Then I do second the nomination
of King Maximillian!

I don't suppose you'd be available to paint a queen?
Yes. Yes, please.
Give me a minute.

UBERTA: Now, Magnus, I have a few ideas for an iconic pose.
Me as a classic goddess.

Or me as the Tiger Mother!

How about you choose the name for a princess,
I choose the name for a prince?
Agreed. So long as you choose Siegfried.
Of course. So long as you choose Bertha.
Oh-- All right.
Our people seem happy.
Who wouldn't be?[GASPS]
UBERTA: I know how long you and William
have hoped for a child, my dear Aubri,
so it would crush me to know that my joy
has caused you the slightest pain.
Because you are my example, my best friend,
my north star.
"Sweet Uberta."
Your joy is my joy.
I cannot wait to hold your child
and pray that he or she will call me Auntie A
for all of my days.
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
Dear, dear Aubri.
Okay, Derek, aim at me as best you can.
As soon as you let it go, you say, "Now!"
Sounds dangerous.
Oh, Daddy won't get hurt.
It's just a little game called Catch & Fire.
The junior version.
Uh-- I'm gonna ask Mommy.
[CHUCKLES] No, no, no.
You see, Derek,
Catch & Fire is just a king and young prince kind of thing.
If you get the queen involved... Well, you know.
She freaks out?
Well, yeah.
Just the men?
[♪♪♪]
So when you let go...
Yell, "Now!"
You got it.
[GRUNTS] Oh--
Now!
I hurt you?
No, no, no. You didn't hurt me.
I just wasn't expecting you to be able to shoot like a pro.
Just say it earlier.
Now!
[CHUCKLES]
A lot earlier.
Now!Earlier.
Now!
Wow...
Well, if it isn't Vision-Hyphen-Fortitude Rogers.
You came.Oh...
You did send a carriage for me and an envelope full of money.
It appears I am in need of your services again.
Oh, no, let me guess.
You want me to train your underachieving goldfish?
No, no.
Just your future king.
Me?
I will raise up and mold the heir to the throne?
Don't get ahead of yourself, sport. I'll still be his mom.

[GIGGLES]
IVAN: King Maximillian, if it please the chair,
I have an urgent matter to bring before this Council.
By all means.
Friends, I have received strong information.
The pirates are planning to raid our merchant ships again.
[ALL MURMURING]
Oh, great!
If it's not thieves, it's pirates!
I say we put Ivan's cannons to good use against them.
Today!
This is unsettling news, I agree, King Edgar.
But, friends, is it wise?
Oh. Let me guess.
You want to make a deal with the pirates too.
Exactly what I was thinking.
[ALL SNICKERING]
I'm sure King Maximillian knows
we don't make deals with pirates.
Does he?
What does a peasant's son know about this Council's dealings?
Yes, a peasant's son.
[ALL MURMURING]
Rest assured, King Edgar,
I am well aware of the Agreement of '02,
the Treaty of '05, and the Compromise of '09.
The pirates broke every one of them
and never kept their word.
Nevertheless...Ah. Here it comes.
...we must keep trying.
I know you want what's right, King Maximillian.
But I'm with King Edgar on this.
Strike first!
Well, I disagree.
Friends, let's not make a hasty decision.
Let's cool our minds, study this out,
and vote on it in the morning.
I second the motion.Hear, hear.
[SIGHS] What do you think, my friend?
You have some support.
Let me work on it tonight.
We may have the votes we need tomorrow.
[SNORING]
[♪♪♪]
[YAWNS]
Hm?
What?
How long are we going to wait for him? Let's vote!
Harbormaster Fleming requests an audience.
Eh. This better be important.
I-I thought you should know that King Maximillian's ship...
sailed out.
Sailed out? When?
Well, about midnight, Highness.
And you waited until now to tell us?
Well, I--
[CANNON FIRING]
Pirates!IVAN: To the cannons!
Fire when ready!
Was this just a warning?
Or a celebration.
You think they have Max?
[♪♪♪]
WILLIAM:No.
That's Max's flag.
IVAN: No one could have survived this.
Max's journal.
[WILLIAM READING ONSCREEN TEXT]
I see their ships approaching."
Here.No!
We must keep it.
Fine. But so long as I live, no one will ever see it.
[SIGHS]
Why, Max? Why?
My poor Uberta.
UBERTA [INHALES SHARPLY]: Why?
[SOBBING]
Why?
To tarnish Max's image
for one misstep benefits no one.
King Ivan and I agree
Max's journal will remain private, hidden away.
Why did he do it?
I've known many a good king,
but Max was the best of them all.
I can only believe he thought it was the right thing to do.
I can't go on.
He alone believed in me.
I cannot be a queen without my king.
But don't you see, Uberta? You must go on.
You must become the queen he knew you could be.
I can't find Dad.
Shouldn't you be at dinner, young man?
I already eated.
I see.
You wanna play Catch & Fire till I find my dad?
Yes, young prince.
I will play Catch & Fire with you all the days of my life.
Just today is good.
[CHUCKLES]
[CLEARS THROAT]
My condolences, Queen Uberta.
Thank you, Ivan. Max respected you.
And I him. He was my better.
So it pains me to say,
I have been chosen as his replacement.
You will do well.
I'd feel more confident about that
if you joined the Council.
[♪♪♪]
MAX: ♪ You will be The queen of queens ♪
I cannot join the Council, dear Ivan.

[SCREAMS]
Here I come, feather bed,
crumpets, and tiny tuxedo!
May a humble tulip farmer
have permission to give the princess flowers?
Permission granted.
[UBERTA CLEARS THROAT]
Let's talk.
You want us to crown Mom and Dad?
You have someone better in mind?
Don't you have to be famous?
Or royal, or something?
[CHUCKLES] I'm glad you asked.
Young Lucas, for your sacrifice and service to this kingdom,
you shall officially be known, now and forevermore,
as Prince Lucas.
Wha--? What? Really?
Now, as you were.
[♪♪♪]
If I'm spotted in this part of town,
I'll never live down the shame!
[BUZZING]
[DOOR CLOSES]
I am not here.
Um. Okay.
If you tell anyone I was here,
I will banish you to...
[SHUDDERS]
Ugh!
What could be worse than this?
Avert your eyes, or lose what few teeth you have left!
What'll it be? A heart? A ship at sea?
Neither. I want to get rid of this.
Eh. Don't blame you. Who gave you that disaster?
A crazy woman. Her dogs defeated my dogs, you see.
But that wasn't enough. No!
She pretended to be a famous singer!
And when I got too close,
she signed my arm with permanent ink!
Then she removed her face!
She sounds crazy, all right.
Get working. Delete it! Now!
Hurry! What if someone sees me here?
How long will this take?
Done.So quickly?
[GASPS]
[♪♪♪]
You're looking very lovely this evening.
[CHUCKLES] Why, thank you.
Stretchy castle pants!

"Dear Queen Wixom, you are invited
to the most memorable coronation of all time"?
Ooh.
That Uberta.
She thinks she's the queen of queens!
With her mangy mutts and her perfect voice
and her permanent-ink autograph.
[GROANING]
Autograph!
[SNIPPING]
[CHUCKLES]
"Most memorable coronation"...
[HUFFS]
...indeed.
[♪♪♪]
UBERTA: T-minus 12 hours and counting, people. Let's move!
Wow. Queen Bee has got the beehive buzzing.
Ooh. Sounds exciting. Let's go.
[♪♪♪]
Chamberlain?
Yes. Isn't it wonderful?
Oh, indeed.
Peonies?
They got here just in time.
Yes. From south of the lands to the west.
[LAUGHING]
I didn't think I could do it.
But here it is, Course 20!
ROGERS: What we do here tonight, friends,
will be remembered for generations.
[CHEERING]
MAN: Yeah!
Our grandchildren's grandchildren
will tell the tale of our remarkable achievement!
People are happiest when they're doing something great.
May I present your coronation attire.
Wow!
Oh, chamberlain, I never imagined.
Neither did I.
[LAUGHS]
And you're walking on air!
Another side of the story. Thank you, Mother.
[♪♪♪]
[DOGS BARKING IN THE DISTANCE]
Oh, that one's horrible. I'll take it.
Oh, no. Actually, we're saving that one for a farmer we know.
Un-save it. It's mine now.
But you'll be nice to it, won't you?
[CHUCKLES] Nice? To a mutt like that?
Queen Uberta says there are no mutts.
They're all good dogs.
I want every dog you have. Now!
[DOGS WHIMPERING]
No music? No thrones? Can you believe that?
Quite peculiar.What did you expect?
That's Uberta for you.
[STAMMERING] Where have you been?
[CHUCKLES]
[♪♪♪]
All clear here. Security 1 to Security 2, report.
Security 2, all clear.
Roger that. Security 3?
Security 3?
[SIGHS] Jean-Bob!
[GROANS] Where is that frog?
If I'm being absolutely honest, I've impressed even myself.
Take your places, men. The show starts at sunset.
[SUBMARINE PINGS]
Prep your wheels, my friends.
Sunset in ten,
nine, eight,
seven, six, five, four, three, two,
one, and go!
[CLANKING]
Aah!
I'm late!
[ORCHESTRA PLAYING]
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
[DOGS HOWLING]
[DOGS HOWLING MELODICALLY]
Oh. Security 2 and 3, we've got a rogue royal.
Meet me underground.
[♪♪♪]
[EXCLAIMS]
Sorry, ma'am, but you are not allowed down here.
Oh, you're going to stop me?
[CHUCKLES] A bird, a turtle, and a toad?
Ah! I am a castle frog!
Not only zat, I have stretchy castle pants.
Well, I've got a couple of tools of my own.
Aah! You ripped my castle pants!
At least zenoise has stopped.
[FIREWORKS WHISTLING, BOOMING]
Did I miss anything?
[UBERTA CRYING]
Oh, the poor dear. What happened to her?
Her vision leaves a path for us to follow.
Yes, tragedy has marked her life...
but she has turned it each time to joy.
The joy of loving...
of giving...
of helping.
She has acquired the strength to stand tall...
and the courage to fight.
She has the charm of laughter.
And the gift to lead.
And the humility to kneel.
Yes, this moment is just a moment,
but this life will shine forever.
She's Uberta,
the queen of queens.
Thank you, Odette.
But it is you, not me, who is the true queen of queens.
[ORCHESTRA PLAYING]
I present to you King Derek and Queen Odette...
the true queen of queens.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
Incoming.
[CHUCKLES]
[♪♪♪]
Your Highness, there is a gentleman here to see you.
Magnus.
It's so good to see you.
I have something for you, my dear queen.
It is the finest work I have ever seen.
My dear Max.
How I miss you.
Derek, this is Magnus.
The painter that Father saved.
Yes.
I see him in you.
My father?
MAGNUS: As best as I can remember him, anyhow.
You remembered well.
It is his very image.
I should return.
Ah... Magnus, may I show you some of our newer portraits?
First my mother and now your father.
They've both come back to us.
Yes.
I have so few memories. Just flashes, really.
Catch & Fire is just a king and young prince kind of thing.
But I clearly remember, he loved me.
MAGNUS: I'm so sorry I missed Derek and Odette's coronation.
After all these years,
a new king and queen in Chamberg.
Does King Derek know?
No, he knows nothing.
