[First lines; Queen Elinor and young Merida are playing hide-and-seek]

Queen Elinor:
Where are you? Come out! Come out! Come on out! I'm coming to get you! [young Merida laughs as she hides under the table] Where are you, you little rascal? I'm coming to get you! [Elinor looks under the table but Merida quickly moves to hide somewhere else] Hmm. Where is my little birthday girl, hm? I'm going to gobble her up when I find her! [Merida comes up behind Elinor and goes to run away but Elinor catches her] I'm going to eat you! [as Elinor and young Merida play, Fergus places his bow on the table] Ach! Fergus, no weapons on the table!

Young Merida:
Can I shoot an arrow? [picks up the large bow from the table] Can I? Can I? Can I? Can I? Please, can I? [falls and laughs as the bow is too big for her]

King Fergus:
Not with that. Why not use your very own? [presents her with a small bow] Happy birthday, my wee darlin'!
