Arabela (1979) s01e02 Episode Script

ARABELA In the last episode we met the storyteller Mr Majer, who found a special little bell.
When you ring it, it summons the wizard Rumburak, ready to fulfill your wishes.
Mr Majer promised the kids that he'd win a teddy bear at the target range, but since he missed every time, he decided to learn how to shoot.
The wizard took him to the land of fairy tales, where Mr Majer managed to shoot a giant wolf.
But this was nothing to be proud of: It turned out this wasn't just any wolf, Rumburak knew he was going to be in trouble.
Episode 2 Rumburak's Revenge How did you manage to shoot the only talking wolf in the whole kingdom? It wasn't me, Your Majesty, but Mr Majer from the human world.
He rang the bell, and I had to grant his wish.
- And how did he come by the bell? - My predecessor, wizard Hehota, lost the bell in the human world 300 years ago.
And this Mr Majer found it and called me to teach him how to shoot.
And you allowed him to shoot the talking wolf? Fool! But, your highness, I had no idea I took the bell from him immediately.
What's going happen to the Little Red Riding Hood now? Who is going to tell her: "My ears are big only to hear you better"? - I don't know, Your Majesty.
- What's his function? He's my assistant, Your Highness.
Second-category wizard.
- We were planning to promote him soon.
- Ha! Promote! Turn over your travel mantle and your magic ring to Mr Vigo immediately.
And the bell! - But - Come on.
What am I supposed to do now? You'll take the wolf's place.
You are going to wait for the Little Red Riding Hood in the woods, eat her grandma, and so on.
- Butbut I'm a licensed wizard.
- You are wasting my time.
Mr Vigo You'll all be sorry.
And the queen most of all.
I'll teach her a lesson! - Did you hear Rumburak was turned into a wolf? - Really! Why? That I don't know.
Look.
Isn't that him? - Mr Rumburak, is it you? - Yes.
- Let's go inside.
I need your help.
- With pleasure.
Come on in.
Abracadabra, wolf becomes Rumburak.
- Why are you looking at me like this? - Will you tell us what happened? I've been disgraced.
I suffered the greatest insult in the history of the fairy-tale land.
Are you going to do anything about it? If what Mr Vigo said is true, the queen's days are numbered.
And what did Vigo say? He told me that his predecessor Hehota had built his castle deep in the woods.
It occured to me that something must still be there.
- Unless you're just imagining things.
- Oh, stop that! If you help me find the castle, I'll make you a court witch.
Because in three days the kingdom will be at my feet.
- Princess, conjugate "the four-legged wolf".
- The four-legged wolf, of the four-legged wolf - Better say: the four-legged Rumburak.
- You're interrupting us again, princess! Don't you know Mr Vigo, that Rumburak was in love with Arabela? But unlike you, I don't pay attention to such candidates.
We have nothing to talk about.
Rumburak only talks about his job.
- And you think only of marriage.
- Nonsense.
Fool! You don't understand anything.
But ladies, please.
We are having a grammar lesson.
But Rumburak is not a wolf.
Here he is! He's mad.
He didn't obey the queen's orders.
Look, he must be over there.
Here ends children's fairy-tale land and begins the land of stories for adults.
Hold on tight, we're landing.
- Try not to hit the wall! - Don't be afraid, it's not my first flight.
See, nothing to be afraid of.
- Is there someone here? - Didn't think we would find him.
- Someone here?! - And who do you expect to find? Perhaps Hehota had some servants, right? There's someone at last.
What do you like, sir? Come on.
- And hide the hoof, it's showing! - Yes, sir.
The little one is Mekota, that one Pekota and these are Fekota and Yekota.
- And you? - Blekota.
Wizard Hehota must have been mad.
- Any other servants? - There werebut when we lost the master You lost him? But I thought fairy characters don't die.
He was sick of it.
He lived for a 1000 years and one day just turned into forest fragrance.
I told you he was nuts.
I'm your new master.
Show me around the castle.
Yes, sir.
- Where are we? - This is the secret room, master.
Come see, my friend.
I thought there are only two travel mantles.
Mine and Vigo's.
And here is a third one.
Look, a flying travel chest.
There are more things here than we expected.
Look.
Two rings.
Now I'm mightier than Vigo.
He has only one.
You think they work? Blekota, squat! It's working fine.
And what could be this? Ooh.
This works, too.
- Sweep the floor.
- Yes, sir.
Do you want to know what princess Arabela's doing? She's so beautiful.
She can't even guess she is soon to be my bride.
- And how do you plan to do it? - Don't be too curious, you'll age quickly.
I am appointing you my personal servant.
I don't want to see you in the kitchen ever again.
But mother, I find it very interesting.
They are roasting a deer now and I Arabela, please finally accept the fact that you are a princess.
Work and worries are for the simple people.
I envy them so much, you know.
You don't know what you're saying, silly.
Don't make me worry.
I don't want to worry you.
I love you more than anything in the world.
My silly little one.
What are you doing here? Rumburak, how dare you change the form I gave you as punishment? I simply didn't like it.
How dare you.
Now you'll know the queen's anger! Stop! Now you will know Rumburak's anger! You aren't the queen anymore.
This is the queen! Look.
And I'll give you such a form, that every time you touch the ground, you'll be afraid that a cat might devour you.
Make sure not to mess things up.
And behave like a queen.
Don't worry.
Your highness, lunch is served.
- What's that on your face, mom? - Think about your face! - Did you catch a cold, my dear? - Yes, probably.
You know whom we saw, daddy? Rumburak.
He was flying on the broom of that horrible witch.
No way! he hasn't obeyed my orders? He shall be punished.
I'm wonder how since he flew away.
Come out.
We've arrived.

Hi, Majer.
I hope it goes better than yesterday.
I'm sorry, Karel, but the director said it's better that you read the text.
To be on the safe side.
Sure, I can't concentrate at all today.
I had some night - What night? - I should tell a shrink first.
- So I'm happy to read - Ok, go then.
- We have guests.
- What guests? What do they want? As you see all the controls are are fully automated.
This is our storyteller, Mr Majer.
And this is mr Emperor, who's going to make his own studio.
A pleasure, Majer But you're mr Rumburak.
We know each other.
- I can't remember.
- Last night.
You taught me how to shoot.
You must be mistaken.
- We have to go.
The show's about to start.
- Thank you, this is enough for me.
I can't be mistaken! Don't say that we together Remember? - I'm going nuts.
- What's this about? - This is definitely Rumburak.
- Rumburak? From the fairy tale? - Well, yes.
- Have you lost your mind? - The new wolf isn't here yet? - No.
I've been waiting for an hour.
So it's true.
I heard that starting today Mr Vigo's assistant's going to be the wolf.
It's all the same to me, but grandma will yell at me.
We won't wait for him anymore.
Let's go.
We have enough time.
Hold this.
You'll be amazed, Blekota.
what a mess we'll make! - Mr Rumburak, I really am amazed.
- I appoint youa worker.
I'll explain later.
And we'll send this as a gift to the king, so he can watch, too.
- But the wolf never came.
- I'm nowhere without the wolf, Your highness.
To tell you the truth, I don't know what to do.
What is this? Get it out of here.
Take away this strange thing.
Put it here, on the table.
- Your highness, there's a note here.
- Well, read it then.
To the King: Listen carefully to Mr Majer.
He tells fairy tales to a million of kids.
You have comply with what he says.
I don't understand anything.
Nothing at all.
Dear kids, you will hear a bedtime story Once upon a time there was a little girl who wore a hood made of red velvet That's why they called her the Little Red Riding Hood.
- This is about me.
- Call the queen.
Quick.
- Can you hear how strange dad's voice is? - Yes.
But why? The Little Red Riding Hood went inside, hit her grandma on the head and -gulp! swallowed her up.
What? What? After she gobbled up the grandma, the Little Red Riding Hood went to the forest.
There she met the hunter, greeted him politely and -gulp! Swallowed him, too.
The hunter was a big guy, and his moustache tickled her throat a little while afterwards.
No! Stop him! Get Majer here! Prepare the dinner, Blekota.
I will fly away and see how the king likes my revenge.
Of course.
How could you say all that gibberish? What gibberish? Excuse me, but I was telling a regular tale.
- A regular tale? Karel, come to your senses.
- Frantishek, at least you believe me.
Shut up! This is a disaster.
I have no idea what to do.
A million of kids heard him.
What are they going to think of the Little Red Riding Hood now? I'm telling you - a disaster! Why, your Highness? The old tale isn't true any more? True is what kids know.
And they know what they've learned from Majer.
What are we going to do? What are we going to do now? I am the evil Little Red Riding Hood and I will eat all of you! Honzik, come down right away.
Peter, get him down.
I will eat your moustache like the Little Red Riding Hood ate the hunter's! - What's going on? - It's all your fault.
Look what you did.
- Hi, dad.
- What kind of nonsense were you telling on TV? You have to go to the doctor.
There's definitely something wrong with you.
Yes.
Since the morning I've felt like I'm going crazy.
Everything runs smoothly.
I'll spoil a few more tales tomorrow.
And as a reward to the one who saves them, the king will offer half the kingdom and Arabela's hand in marriage.
