Queen Elinor:
[in the tapestry room; practicing a speech with Fergus]
Merida, all this work, all the time spent preparing you, schooling you, giving you everything we never had. I ask you, what do you expect us to do?
Princess Merida:
[in the royal stables; taking care of Angus and rehearsing her own speech]
Call off the gathering! Would that kill them? You're the queen. You can just tell the lords, "The princess is not ready for this. In fact, she might not ever be ready for this, so that's that. Good day to you. We'll expect your declarations of war in the morning."
Queen Elinor:
I understand this must all seem unfair. Even I had reservations when I faced betrothal.
[Fergus looks up in surprise]
Queen Elinor:
But we can't just run away from who we are.
Princess Merida:
I don't want my life to be over. I want my freedom!
Queen Elinor:
But are you willing to pay the price your freedom will cost?
Princess Merida:
I'm not doing any of this to hurt you.
Queen Elinor:
If you could just try to see what I do, I do out of love.
Princess Merida:
But it's MY LIFE, it's... I'm just not ready.
Queen Elinor:
I think you'd see, if you could just...
Princess Merida:
I think I could make you understand if you would just...
Queen Elinor:
Listen.
Princess Merida:
Listen.
[Angus whinnies at her]
Princess Merida:
I swear, Angus, this isn't going to happen.
[Angus touches her sympathetically and she pets him]
Princess Merida:
Not if I have any say in it.
