Mulan-Disney.1998
First
CI FU
Citizens, chill out,I bring a command from the imperial city. We have the blues. The Huns have invaded China. By order of the emperor,one man from every family must serve in the Imperial army.
(a moment)The Hua family!
MULAN
(frightened)No!
GRANDMOTHER
Quite! Hold your horses!!
FATHER
I am ready to serve the emperor.
MU
My father is dying. My brother is too young. What can I do?
OTHERS
What can she do?
MU
What can I do?
VOICE
You can go to the army instead of your father.
MU
But I’m a girl.
VOICE
Why not? You look like a man.
Mu
Right! Good idea! I can’t see the reason why a girl can’t be a soldier to defend her own country
GR
Mulan! Come back!
MU
Father, you can't go!
FA
Mulan! Silence!
MU
Please, sir, my father has already fought bravely last few years and was wounded...
CF
Shut up!
(point at Mu's father) Dude! You would do well to teach your daughter to hold her tongue in a man's presence.
FA
OOPS! Mulan, you dishonor me.
CF
Report tomorrow to the Wu Zhong camp.
FA
Yes, sir.
Second
(Few hours later)
MULAN
You shouldn't have to go! There are plenty of young men to fight for China.
FATHER
It is an honor to protect my country and my family. I’ll take it for granted.
MU
So, you may be the ‘late’ Hua for honor.
FA
I will die doing what's right.
MU
But if you...
FA
(angry)You drive me up the wall!! I know my place! It's time you learned yours.
Third
(late at night) GR
Mulan is gone!
FA
What? It can't be!
GR
You must go after her.She could be killed.
FA
If I reveal her,she will be.
GR
Ancestors, hear our prayer.Watch over Mulan.
Fourth
(after Mulan blow up one palace and killed Shan-Yu) MU
Li, I’m sorry.
BF
Why did you kiss me? Are you a gay?
MU
No. In fact, I am a girl.
CF
That was a deliberate attempt on my life! Where is she? Now she's brought us disaster.What a mess!
You stand aside! That creature's not worth protecting.
BF
She ace it! She's a hero.
CF
She’s a woman.She'll never be worth anything.
BF
Listen, you pompous...
KING
That is enough.
BF
Your Majesty, I can explain.
KI
I've heard a great deal about you,
Hua Mulan.You stole your father's armor, ran away from home, impersonated a soldier,
deceived your commanding officer, dishonored the Chinese army, destroyed my palace... And...
(silence)
And you have saved us all!
MU
Your Majesty,Thank you for not arresting me
KI
Cool, my little baby is all grown up and... and savin' China. Ci Fu. CF
Your Excellency?
KI
This woman made everyone down to earth. See to it that she is made a member of my council.
CF
Member of... what?
[stammering] But...There are no council positions open,Your Majesty.
KI
Very well. Mulan,you can have his job.
CF
What? I.. Oh shit...
MU
With all due respect,Your Excellency,l think l've been away from home long enough.I want to go home.
KI
Then... take this crest, so your family will know what you have done for me. And this sword,so the world will know what you have done for China.
BF
Um... you...You fight good.
MU
Oh, thank you, Khan, my honey horse,let's hit the road.
KI
The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.
