Tiana: [She and Naveen are floating above trees by balloons] Voodoo? You mean to tell me all this happened because you were messing with the Shadow Man?
Prince Naveen: He was very charismatic!
Tiana: [groans] It serves me right for wishing on stars. The ONLY way to get what you want in this world is through hard work.
Prince Naveen: Hard work? Why... why would a princess need to work hard?
Tiana: Huh? Oh, I'm not a princess. I'm a waitress.
Prince Naveen: A waitress? Well no wonder the kiss did not work! You lied to me!
Tiana: I - I never said I was a princess.
Prince Naveen: You never said you were a w- a waitress! You were wearing a crown!
Tiana: It was a costume party, you spoiled little rich boy!
Prince Naveen: Oh, oh yes, oh ye-? Well, the egg is on your face, alright, because I do not have any riches!

Prince Naveen: You know, waitress, I finally figured out what is wrong with you.
Tiana: Have you, now?
Prince Naveen: You do not know how to have FUN. There. Somebody had to say it.
Tiana: Thank you, 'cause I figured out what your problem is too.
Prince Naveen: I am... too wonderful?
[the branch Tiana was holding smacks him backwards]
Tiana: No, you're a no-count, philandering, lazy bump on a log.
Prince Naveen: Ahaha...
[fakes a cough]
Prince Naveen: KILLJOY.
Tiana: What'd you say?
Prince Naveen: Ah, nothing.
[fakes another cough]
Prince Naveen: STICK IN THE MUD.
Tiana: Listen here, mister. This stick in the mud has had to work two jobs her whole life while you've been sucking on a silver spoon chasing chambermaids around your - your ivory tower!
Prince Naveen: [glances away] Actually, it's polished marble.
Tiana: Have you, now?

Prince Naveen: [Tiana had just turned into a frog] Easy, Princess! Princess! Do not panic!
Tiana: [covering herself and panicking] Augh! What did you do to me? I - I'm green and I'm - and I'm slimy!
Prince Naveen: No, that is not slime!
[he takes her hand and rubs a finger over her arm]
Tiana: What?
Prince Naveen: [grinning] You are secreting mucus.
[Tiana twitches and tackles him]

Tiana: Oh... All my years. No one's ever done anything like this for me.
[glances at Naveen and sees he is wearing a butterfly as a bowtie]
Prince Naveen: Oh, heh, i - it is too much, isn't it? Um...
[clears throat]
Prince Naveen: Thank you, Bow.

[cuts himself off in panic]
Prince Naveen: No, like two, three... just other women! A-and anyway, you could not be more different! You know, you are - you are practically, heh, one of the guys!
[Tiana looks shocked]
Prince Naveen: No, no, no! You are not a guy! Let me begin again! Uh...

Travis: But, Miss Charlotte, you said later two hours ago.
Charlotte: Travis, when a woman says later, she really means not ever. Now run along, there are plenty of fillies dying for you to waltz them into a stupor. Gimme those napkins, quick.
Tiana: What for?
Charlotte: I swear I'm sweating like a sinner in church.

Charlotte: crazy people.

Dr. Facilier: [appearing to read Prince Naveen's palm] Were I a betting man - and I'm not, I stay away from games of chance - I'd wager I'm in the company of visiting royalty.
Prince Naveen: [amazed] Lawrence, Lawrence! This remarkable gentleman has just read my palm!
Lawrence: [noticing the morning newspaper, which had a cover story about Naveen's visit, sticking out of Dr. Facilier's pocket] Or this morning's newspaper.
Prince Naveen: [amazed] Lawrence, Lawrence! This remarkable gentleman has just read my palm!
Lawrence: [noticing the morning newspaper, which had a cover story about Naveen's visit, sticking out of Dr. Facilier's pocket] Or this morning's newspaper.
Dr. Facilier: [to Naveen, singing] Now you, young man, are from across the sea / come from two lines of royalty. I'm royal myself, on my mother's side... Your spirits are high, but your funds are low... / You need to marry a pretty honey whose daddy got some dough!... Mum and Dad cut you off, huh, pretty boy?
Prince Naveen: Sad, but true!
Dr. Facilier: Now you gotta get hitched. But hitching ties ya down. You just wanna be free, hop from place to place! But freedom takes GREEN...
[turns the cards into dollars]
Dr. Facilier: It's the green, it's the green, it's the green that you need / and in your future it's the green I see!
Prince Naveen: Sad, but true!
Dr. Facilier: Now you gotta get hitched. But hitching ties ya down. You just wanna be free, hop from place to place! But freedom takes GREEN...

Dr. Facilier: [during the illusion of Tiana's restaurant] Now, isn't this whole life better than hoppin' around a bayou for the rest of your life?
Tiana: Shadow Man.
Dr. Facilier: Gotta hand it to you, Tiana. When you dream, you dream big. Just look at this place! Gonna be the crown jewel of the Cresent City. And all you got to do, to make this reality Is hand over that little talisman of mine.
Tiana: No. This-this is not right.
Dr. Facilier: Come on, darlin'? Think of everything you sacrificed.
[as he shows her all the people who doubted her]
Dr. Facilier: Think of all those people who doubted you.
[shows her father]
Dr. Facilier: And don't forget your poor daddy. Now, that was one hard-working man... double, sometimes triple shifts. Never let know how bone-tired, beat he really was. Shame all that hard work didn't amount much more than a busted up, old gumbo-pot and a dream that never get off the back porch. But you... you can give your poor daddy everything he ever wanted. Come on, Tiana... You're almost there.
Tiana: My Daddy never did get what he wanted. But he had what he needed. He had love. He never lost sight o' what was really important.
[as she charges him, shaking the talisman]
Dr. Facilier: Easy with that! Careful!
Tiana: And neither will I.
[thows the talisman to ground]
Tiana: Shadow Man.

Dr. Facilier: Easy with that! Careful!
Tiana: And neither will I.
[thows the talisman to ground]
Dr. Facilier: Y'all should have taken my deal. Now you'll spend the rest of your life being a slimy little frog!
Tiana: I got news for you, Shadow Man: it's not slime... it's mucus!
[uses her tongue to get back the talisman and smashes it]
Dr. Facilier: No! How am I ever gonna pay back my debt?
[a trio of masks break out of some graves, chanting]
Dr. Facilier: Friends!
Masks: [smile malevolently] Are you ready?
Dr. Facilier: No! I'm not ready at all! In fact, I got lots more plans! This is just a minor setback in a major operation!
Tiana: I got news for you, Shadow Man: it's not slime... it's mucus!

Dr. Facilier: No! I'm not ready at all! In fact, I got lots more plans! This is just a minor setback in a major operation!
[to his voodoo "friends", which resemble masks]
Dr. Facilier: Friends, I know I'm in hock to y'all pretty deep already, but it seems our little froggy prince lost his way. And I need your generous assistance getting him back.
[the heads glare]
Dr. Facilier: [laughs nervously] I hear you. Now, what's in it for you? Well, as soon as I dispose of "Big Daddy" La Bouff, then I'm gonna run this town. I'll have the entire city of New Orleans in the palm of my hand. And you'll have all the wayward souls your dark little hearts desire. You all love that, don't you? So, we got ourselves a deal?
[the heads contemplate for a moment, then release shadow spirits into the room]
Dr. Facilier: [laughs] NOW we're cookin'! We're gonna find ourselves a frog. Search everywhere, the bayou, the quarter... bring him to me alive. I need his heart pumping... for now.

Dr. Facilier: Don't you disrespect me, little man! Don't you derogate, or deride! / You're in my world now, not your world, and I've got friends on the other side...
[ushers Naveen and Lawrence into his shop, from which murmurs are heard... ]
Dr. Facilier: That's an echo, gentlemen. Just a little somethin' we have here in Louisiana. Little "parlor trick," don't worry.

Prince Naveen: [talking about her comment to the frog-hunters] 'And we talk, too!' I like that! You are secretly funny.
Tiana: Not a stick in the mud?
Prince Naveen: W-well I was...
Tiana: Say it.
Prince Naveen: Co...
Tiana: Say it.
Prince Naveen: All right... You're not exactly...
Tiana: I can't hear you, I'm sorry. What?
Prince Naveen: ...a complete stick DEEP in the mud.

Tiana: She'll have you!
Tiana: [while standing on the balcony, she sees a wishing star; sighs] I can't believe that I'm doing this.
[looks up]
Tiana: lease... Please... Please.
[looks down and sees a frog sitting on the balcony]
Tiana: Oh, very funny. So, what now? I reckon you want a kiss?
Prince Naveen: Kissing would be nice, yes?
[Tiana screams and backs into Charlotte's room]
Prince Naveen: 'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.
[sees Tiana about to launch stuffed animals at him]
Prince Naveen: Wait, wait, wait, hold on.
[Tiana starts throwing the stuffed animals at him]
Prince Naveen: You know, you have a very strong arm, Princess. Wait, please! Put the monkey down.
Tiana: [throws a stuffed monkey at him and lifts up a book] Stay back, or I'll... I'll...
Prince Naveen: Please, please.
[hops ontop of a table]
Prince Naveen: , allow me to introduce myself: I am Prince Naveen
[Tiana squashes him]
Prince Naveen: ... of Maldonia.
Tiana: A prince? But I didn't wish for any... Hold on, if you're the prince, then WHO was that waltzing with Lotte on the dance floor?
Prince Naveen: The only thing I know, is that one minute I am a prince, charming and handsome, cutting-a-rug, and the next thing I know
[trips over his feet]
Prince Naveen: ... I am tripping over these.
[points to his feet and Tiana lifts the book again]
Prince Naveen: Wait, wait.
[catches sight of the book's title]
Prince Naveen: Wait a moment, I know this story! The Froggie Printo!
Tiana: [hands the book to Naveen] The Frog Prince?
Prince Naveen: Yes, my mother had the servants read this to me every night.
[begins to flip back and forth between the last two pages of the book]
Prince Naveen: Yes, yes, this is exactly the answer! You must kiss me!
Tiana: Excuse me?
Prince Naveen: You will enjoy it, I guarantee. All women enjoy the kiss of Prince Naveen. Come, we pucker.
[his throat bulges out and then returns to normal]
Prince Naveen: That's new.
Tiana: Look, I'm sorry. I'd really like to help you, but I DO NOT kiss frogs.
Prince Naveen: But on the balcony, you ask me.
Tiana: I didn't expect you to answer!
Prince Naveen: Oh, but you must kiss me. Look, besides being unbelievably handsome, I come from a fabulously wealthy family. Surely, I can offer you some reward or a wish that I could grant, perhaps?
Tiana: [reluctantly] Just one kiss?
Prince Naveen: Just one. Unless you beg for more.
[licks lips; they lean in to kiss, but Tiana flips at the last second, Naveen sighs]
Tiana: All right, all right. Get it together, Tiana.
[she turns around quickly and kisses Naveen, who lets out a disappointed sigh, upon realizing that he is still a frog, then looks down and gasps in horror and epeaks Maldonian]
Prince Naveen: [gazes up at the table] Well, you don't look any different. But how did you get way up there? And how did I get way down here, in all this...
[gazes up at the table]
Prince Naveen: Well, you don't look any different. But how did you get way up there? And how did I get way down here, in all this...
[sees her hands are webbed. She looks in the mirror, sees she is a frog, and screams]
[looks up]

Prince Naveen: Well, you don't look any different. But how did you get way up there? And how did I get way down here, in all this...
[sees her hands are webbed. She looks in the mirror, sees she is a frog, and screams]
Tiana: [singing] In the South Land, there's a city, way down on the river. Where the women are very pretty, and all the men deliver. They got music. It's always playin'. Start in the daytime, go all through the night. When you hear that music playin', hear what I'm saying, it make you feel all right!
[Tiana looks out her bedroom window]
Young Tiana: Charlotte's fairy tale book said, if you make a wish on evening star it's sure to come true.
Eudora: Hmm, won't you wish on that star, sweetheart?
James: Yes, you wish and you dream with all your little heart. But you remember, Tiana, that old star can only take you part of the way. You got to help him with some hard work of your own. And then... Yeah, you can do anything you set you mind to. Just promise your Daddy one thing? That you'll never, ever lose sight of what is really important. Okay?
[Tiana nods yes]

[Tiana nods yes]
Reggie: Ooh, just look at those two jumpers. I can taste them frog-legs already.
Darnell: [Loudly] Bet they taste real good with the sauce piquant! Right, Pa?
Reggie: Will you be quiet?
[Hits Darnell with club]
Darnell: Ow.
[Two-Fingers mumbles something while making gestures]
Reggie: My thoughts exactly, Two-Fingers. It's time to catch us some frogs.

Tiana: [as they get off the boat] Ray, have you seen Naveen?
Ray: Look at you! Where's the ring at?
Tiana: What are you talking about?
Ray: Well, if Captain say nothing, I ain't gonna say nothing. Because old Ray sealed up tight as a drum, you ain't got nothin' out of me, no!
Tiana: [chiding] Ray?
Ray: Okay, Captain ain't gonna marry Charlotte; he gonna marry you. Soon as he get himself kissed, and you both turn human, he go find a job, get you that restaurant.
[stops suddenly]
Ray: I said too much, didn't I?
Tiana: You said just enough, Ray!
[looking to the sky before hopping off]
Tiana: Thank you, Evangeline... He was trying to propose. That's what all that fumbling was about and here I thought, all he wanted was to marry a rich girl.
Ray: [zig-zagging through the parade crowd] Chere! What what are we looking for in here?
Tiana: You just keep your eyes at one of the biggest gaudiest floats with a Mardi Gras princess about to kiss herself a... a frog.
[sees Lawrence "Naveen" about to marry Charlotte]

[first lines]
Eudora: [telling a story to Tiana and Charlotte] "Just at that moment, the ugly little frog looked up with his sad, round eyes and pleaded, 'Oh, please, dear princess! Only a kiss from you can break this terrible spell that was inflicted on me by a wicked witch!'"
Young Charlotte: [to Tiana] Here comes my favorite part.
Eudora: "And the beautiful princess was so moved by his desperate plea that she stooped down, picked up the slippery creature, leaned forward, raised him to her lips, and kissed that little frog."
Young Charlotte: Aww.
[Tiana gags]
Eudora: "Then lo and behold, the frog was transformed into a handsome prince! They were married and lived happily ever after. The end."

[Naveen and Tiana are cooking dinner]
Prince Naveen: [mincing vegetables] I'm not really used to doing this. I mean, most of the time I had servants do everything for me: dress my clothes, brush my teeth, even help me get out of bed!
Princess Tiana: [stirring broth] Aw, you poor baby.
Prince Naveen: Yes, they did everything for me, until the day my parents cut me off, and that's when I realized... I don't know how to do anything.

James: You know the thing about good food? It brings folks together from all walks of life. It warms them right up and it puts little smiles on their faces. And when I open up my own restaurant, I tell you, people are gonna line up for miles around, just to get a taste of my food.
Young Tiana: *Our* food!
James: [chuckles] That's right, baby. Our food.
Young Tiana: *Our* food!
James: [chuckles] That's right, baby. Our food.
