The Snow Queen Page #6

Watch. I'm going.

Good night, my dear.

Well, who won?

Did you forget that there're

secret doors in palaces?

Grab her!

You ought to be ashamed of

yourself, Your Majesty.

Plug your ears! You're dismissed!

It's a disgrace for a king.

A king can be as treacherous

as he wants.

Give back my skis!

I certainly will, I wouldn't

accept anything from you.

Go back to your master!

All right...

But I wish you'd be more polite.

Come on, give up!

I'm supposed to lock you up

in my dungeons.

Why?

The commercial counselor

insists upon it.

Is he here?

I think he's been following you

since you left home.

So do agree.

I'm very much in debt to this

counselor.

I'm in his hands.

If I don't capture you,

he'll just ruin me.

He'd put a stop to ice deliveries,

and then we won't have ice-cream

anymore.

He'd put a stop to cold steel

deliveries,

and my neighbors would defeat us.

I beg of you,

be my prisoner.

I'll pick the cell,

the very best I've got.

No!

A king must be:

A, as cold as the snow.

B, as hard as winter ice.

C, more swift than a northern

wind.

Explain why this girl isn't

in prison?

It's because she's on

the princess's half.

You employ methods which are overly

polite. See how it's done!

No, that's not how it's done,

Counselor! Drop that child's hand.

- How did you manage to get here?

- I followed you.

- Summon the guard!

- Don't move!

That pistol won't shoot. He didn't

bother to put in the powder.

Don't move, Your Majesty.

Suppose I did put in the powder?

I tell you, it's not loaded.

But he says it is.

I'm about to make mincemeat

of this uninvited protector.

Kribble! Krabble! Booms!

Now move to the king's side

immediately!

- Or I'll kill him.

- All right, I'll go.

They want to kill

my best friend!

The king tripped him.

You just wait. I'll make more

mischief than you've ever seen.

You're going to see a rainbow

of troubles!

Oh, I promise not to do it again.

The carriage is here!

To show appreciation, I'll give you

a blue ribbon with...

Bells and buttons and rosettes

and honorary swords.

- We're greatly honored.

- Thank you very much.

I'll catch up with you, Gerda!

Well, Counselor, I'm counseling

you to let us alone.

Keep your advice to yourself,

scribbler.

You've lost, Counselor.

Our little game isn't over yet,

storyteller.

I see that they've finally

calmed down.

Someone to see you.

What do you want here?

I need to see the chief of your

band.

It is I!

You?!

Well, why did you stop chattering?

Since my husband passed away

from a bad cold...

Poor man, he was so wonderful!

...l've been running the business

alone.

If you've come to bother us,

it better be for a good reason,
