Deep Blue Sea, Light White Foam...
Oho ho ho!
A thousand years I've been waiting for this moment!
A thousand years I've been locked up
inside this uncomfortable bottle!
Locked up by the great wizard...
Huh... Forgot his name...
Come closer, my little savior!
I'm taking him with me.
Heh, heh, where to?
You see, I'm very, very old.
I need an apprentice and a heir.
I don't want to be your apprentice!
Why, you old bandit!
Get me back to my grandpa,
you wretched wizard!
Silly boy!
I'll teach you to summon storms
Drown ships!
But there are people inside!
But all this can be yours!
No!
You will be filthy rich
and happy!
And you'll live for 2000 years!
Drowning ships for 2000 years?..
And 300 years later,
when you grow up a bit,
I will marry you to my daughter
Wind is blowing,
in the ocean
Hurricanes are howling wildly,
Skiff or yacht -- it doesn't matter!
All the ships are going down!
As these ships are sinking lower
With their anchors and their sails
They will coat the sandy bottom
With their treasure chests of gold!
Fancy ships are lying wrecked
Treasure chests are burst unchecked
It is raining gems and jewels -
It's a most amazing thing
Just say yes, and we can make you
Filthy rich and filthy happy
Just say yes, and be a smart boy
And we'll make you our next king
And we will make you our next king!
You agree...
...to be my apprentice...
Lesson one.
Say: "Ayb! Ben! Gim!"
And you will turn into anything you want!
Ayb! Ben! Gim!
Running away?
Go on! And how are you going to turn human again?
Ayb. Ben. Gim.
Try again!
Ayb! Ben! Gim!
Don't even try! No use.
See, you don't know the second spell.
But if you like it this way...
Stay a fish, go to your grandpa,
He loves him some fish!
Fried, that is!
Heh! Do you even remember that spell yourself?
Me?
I'll bet you've forgotten everything after 1000 years!
Yrek!
Uyu!
Chors!
You almost got me there!
But I remember! I still do!
Yrek, uyu, chors!
I did it!
Guessed it yourself, eh?
What an intelligent,
what a capable boy!
You will sow wind in the ocean,
Deep blue sea, and light white foam,
Let the foam engulf the ships,
May they sink into the sea!
Let them sink right to the bottom
With their anchors and their sails
After that you'll get to plunder
All their treasure chests of gold!
Fancy ships are lying wrecked!
Treasure chests are burst unchecked!
It is raining gems and jewels -
It's a most amazing thing
Just say yes, and we can make you
Filthy rich and filthy happy
Just say yes, and be a smart boy
And we'll make you our next king!
And we will make you our next king!
All right!
- I agree to be filthy rich! - Aha!
I agree to be filthy happy!
I shall be your apprentice.
Aha-haha!
I just can't figure out one thing...
How did you,
- Who is so large... - Yep!
- So wide... - Yep!
...fit into that itsy-bitsy bottle?
What?!
You don't believe me?!
Sorry, master, but...
Then watch, you silly boy!
So, are we good now?
We're great!
