[Our second double-length adventure starts with Dora standing in the path and finds out what the surprise is!] How's it going, Dora?
"¡Hola,
soy
Dora!"
"And
THIS is my best friend, Boots!"
"OOH-OOH-
AAH-AAH!!!" he chattered.
"DORA!!!"
She tickles him as they laugh.
Then puts him on her shoulders.
"HI!" he said to the viewer. (What's up?!)
(Mysterious fanfare in distance)
"WOW! That sounds like a trumpet!"
"Come on,
let's see what's going on!"
"WHOA!" (It's a gate!)
(Gate trumpets)
"I am the gate to Fairytale Land!"
"Do YOU wanna come with us to Fairytale Land?" asked Dora to the viewer.
Do you?
"ALL RIGHT!"
"ALL RIGHT!"
"To enter Fairytale Land, all you have to say is: 'Once upon a time'."
Can you say, "Once upon a time"?
Say, "Once upon a time!"
Say, "Once upon a time!"
ONCE UPON A TIME!
(Gate trumpets once more)
(Welcome to Fairytale Land!)
Lollipops!
The Three Little Pigs!
The Gingerbread Man!
"We’re in Fairytale Land!" (How about a song?)
Come with me now and we can go,
To un mundo magico (To a magical land)
Right this way, no time to lose!
Come on! Take my hand!
Wonder what we’re gonna see…
"Will the Three Little Pigs
play with me?"
"Of course!" Hey, you’re in Fairytale Land.
It's un lugar maravilloso (a wonderful place), a fairytale land.
So just come on in
and make yourself at home
"Hi, Jack!" "Hi, Boots!"
'Cause you might see
Snow White, or (Look there’s Baby Blue Bird)
the Gingerbread Man,
or play catch with a very
friendly gnome
It's un lugar maravilloso, a fairytale land!
Grab your wand, come and join our merry band! (¡Es un lugar maravilloso!) (It is a wonderful place!)
Calling all
Cinderellas
and magical fellas.
By now, we think
you understa-and
You're welcome in Fairytale Land!
In Fairytale Land!
In Fairytale La-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-n-n-n-n-n-d!
(all giggling)
Little does Boots know that a wicked witch is right behind him, disguised as a magic fruit tree.
(She's FAR worse than Swiper the sneaky fox and Mr. Troll!)
(She's FAR worse than Swiper the sneaky fox and Mr. Troll!)
"Here, have a banana."
(Uh-oh, don't do it, Boots. It might be a trick.)
Too late! He takes a bite anyway.
"Mmm!"
HUH?!
What's going on?!
What's happening?
(You okay?!)
Boots feels sleepy.
(snoring)
"OH, NO!!!"
"What's happening to Boots?!"
"Boots has turned into…"
"Sleeping Boots!"
Sleeping Boots?!
"It's the witch's work."
"Look! The tree!"
And…?
"It's turning into…!"
POOF!
"THE WITCH!" they all shouted. (The dwarves were right.)
(With a wand and broom!)
"I put a sleeping spell on that monkey!" Said the witch. (Look, Dora has the star pocket on Backpack)
(cackling)
"PLEASE!" Dora begs the Witch.
"Tell me how I can break the sleeping spell!"
"You'll NEVER find out!" she said, almost "stealing" one of Swiper's catchphrases.
"He-he-he-he-ha-ha-ha-ha!"
(OH, we'll see about THAT, Witch!)
The Witch is ready to go.
"¡Vuela, broomstick! Flyyyyy!"
"Careful! ¡Cuidado, cuidado!
¡¡¡¡¡CUIDADO-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
O-O-O-O-O!!!!!"
But the broomstick wasn't paying ANY attention.
So,
what happens?
THIS!
(And they scared a bird away!)
"Sorry, boss!" said Broom.
"My mistake!"
"SORRY!"
(That's two trees!)
"SORRY!!!" (Make that THREE trees! Silly Broomstick must be a little TOO silly.)
Dora tries everything she can to wake Boots up.
First, she tries to say "Wake up" to him. "Boots! Wake up! WAKE UP!"
(snoring)
Didn't work?
Didn't work?
Next, she tries to tickle him. "Tickle-Tickle-Tickle! Tickle-Tickle-Tickle!"
Unfortunately, neither of them worked.
She now asks the Dwarves if they know how to break the spell.
Luckily, they do know. "There's only one way to break the spell."
"Sleeping Boots must get a hug from a True Princess."
There's only one problem. "But, there are NO True Princesses in all of Fairytale Land!"
"Many have tried to pass the test
to become a True Princess."
"But it's VERY hard!"
Then, an idea flew into one of the dwarves' head:
"Dora, YOU can become a true princess!" he says.
All the dwarves agreed.
"¡Si se puede!" ("Yes, it is possible!")
"Oh, Dora! I know you can do it!" cheered Map.
Dora admits that she doesn’t know if she can become a true princess.
But she has to try. "I've got to try it for Boots!"
"YAY!" cheered the dwarves after Dora accepts their idea.
She now has to figure out HOW to become a true princess.
To become a true princess, you have to...
Find the red ring.
Teach the giant rocks to sing.
Turn winter into spring.
AND…
Bring the moon to the queen and king!
Even though it’s a lot, the dwarves, Backpack, and Map still think it's doable.
"This is going to be the HARDEST thing I've ever tried to do!"
"But I'm going to need YOUR help!"
"Will you help me become a true princess?"
You will?!
"Gracias!" she replied.
"Gracias!" she replied.
Distant voice: "Psst. Dora!"
It's a Stone Wall with rainbow leaves! "Over here!"
(What's wrong, wall?)
"Dora!"
She gives Dora a warning! "You have to become a true princess
before my last leaf falls!" (If all the rainbow leaves fall off that stone wall, the sleeping spell might last forever!)
"Ooooh...
there goes another one!"
"WHOA!! We have to HURRY!"
"Dwarfs, will you stay here and watch over Sleeping Boots?"
"Sure!" said the Dwarves.
"To become a true princess, first we have to find the red ring."
(But... where is it?)
"Who do we ask for help when we don’t know which way to go?"
"The Map, right! You have to say, 'Map!'"
There he is! Say his name and he will spring out of Backpack!
He can't hear you! "LOUDER!!!" called the dwarves. (MAP!)
(A little higher, and...)
(SPRIIIIIIIIING!)
All righty! Let's see what he says!
![[Map for the episode.]](/wiki/File:Map_Season_4_Episode_3.png "Map Season 4 Episode 3.png (464 KB)")
[Map for the episode.]
Oh, WOW! Map looks different for this big fairytale adventure! He's got FOUR places instead of the usual three!
"Dora is trying to become a true princess so she can wake up Sleeping Boots!"
"To become a true princess...
"To become a true princess...
first, she has to find the red ring,
then teach the giant rocks to sing,
then turn winter
into spring,
and last of all, she has to bring the moon to the queen and king!"
"WOW!"
Instead of reviewing the places, he says, "So, first you have to find the red ring."
The ring is hidden
in the Dragon's cave!
"OOH!
So you tell Dora: First she has to go to the Dragon's Cave!"
Hello again, Dora!
(Wait, what happened to picture pop-ups?! This is updated and new!)
(Wait, what happened to picture pop-ups?! This is updated and new!)
"Where do we go first?" Dora asked.
You heard the Map! Tell her!
"The Dragon's Cave!"
"Ooooooh..."
Donde esta?
Do you see the cave?
Right there on the left.
Si, ahi esta!
Is the cave on:
The first path,
Or the second path?
First!
The first path!
Okay!
"Come on,
vamonos!
I have to become a TRUE princess,
so I can wake up
Sleeping Boots!"
There's the dragon's cave!
Shh, we can't let the dragon hear us!
Do you see the dragon?
He's behind the cave, eating a big bowl of spaghetti. (Wonder where he got some...)
YIKES!
Will you help Dora tiptoe past the dragon?
Great
Tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe!
She steps on that twig.
The dragon thought he heard that crunching sound of the twig.
Shhhh…
He continues to eat his spaghetti.
Tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe!
We made it!
The dragon's cave is so...dragon-y!
If you see the red ring, say, "ring!"
Ring! You found it!
The red ring!
ROAR!
Uh-oh! That sounds like the dragon!
Do you see the dragon?
Uh oh! Here comes the dragon!
"Quick! Help me get on your finger!"
"Point your finger, point your finger!"
Help me put on the ring! To get the ring on, point your finger!
Great!
WHOA!
The top of the inside has changed!
Another change!
Even the dragon is changing!
The dragon turned into a prince!
"I was under a spell for a long time,
and was forced to be a dragon and guard the red ring." (Must be the witch's spells.)
"But you saved me!"
The prince has something for Dora.
Es una cajita de musica magica. A magic music box!
This music box will help you become a true princess.
When you wind it up, it plays beautiful music.
The music is so beautiful it can teach everyone to sing!
"¡CUIDADO!
You can only play the music box once! Don't play it until you need it!"
"Okay, I'll be careful!"
"Well, adios."
Dora and the prince shake hands.
"¡Gracias! Thanks!" Dora thanking the prince for the magic music box
"¡Buene suerte!" ("Good luck!") said the prince.
The Witch does not look happy.
"¡Caramba! Dora found the red ring!"
"I have to work HARDER to stop this girl from becoming a true princess!"
"Yeah, boss!" said Wand.
"She's really GOOD!"
"She's one smart girl!" Broom replied.
"Y muy
valiente!" (And very brave!)
"¡SILENCIO! BE QUIET!!!" shouted the witch in such a rude tone.
"Now fly, broomstick!
¡VUELA!"
And off she goes!
(Hey! What's that Silly Broom doing now?!)
"We're upside down!"
(Oh, good! Now they're right-side up again!)
(Let's hope the Broom does not mess up again.)
Uh-oh!
"We're going DOWN!"
(Yikes, a tree! The Witch better tell the Broom to watch out!)
"¡Cuidado,
CUIDADO!" cried the Witch.
"¡¡¡¡¡CUIDADO-
O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O!!!!!"
(Too late!)
"Ooh!
Sorry, boss!" (Mistakes happen, Broom!)
Another tree! Broom is careful this time by going
up
and over it.
A giant shoe!
And the Fiesta Trio is in it!
"Dora the Explorer
has passed the first test
to become a true princess!"
"Fly, shoe!
¡VUELA!"
"We have to figure out where we go next!"
"Say, 'Map'!"
There he is! You know the drill!
(SPRIIIIIING…!)
Map is impressed! "Wow! You got past the dragon! You're SO brave!"
And you've found the red ring! Check! Where do we go next?
The rocks, right! The GIANT rocks!
"The Giant Rocks are guarded by
the Giant GIANT!"
"YIKES!!!"
So tell Dora: Next we go to the Giant Rocks.
Be ready.
"Where do we go next?"
Tell her what Map said!
"The Giant Rocks!"
"That's right!"
¿Donde esta?
Do you see the Giant Rocks?
Right there!
Si, ahi esta!
Are they on:
The first path,
the second path,
or the third path?
Second!
The second path, okay!
"Dora!" said a talking mirror.
"I have a message for you from the Seven Dwarves!"
Let’s see.
"Dora! Sleeping Boots is snoring louder than ever!"
(loud snoring)
"And look!"
(A few leaves fall)
"More leaves are falling from the wall!"
"You have to become a princess before the last leaf falls!"
"Hurry, Dora!!!"
"I'm hurrying!"
Whoa!
These rocks sure ARE giant!
What's going on here?!
The ground's starting to shake?
"Fee-fi-fo-fum! Fumpty-dumpty-dumpty-DUM!"
"Here comes the Giant Giant!"
"Fee-fi-fo-fum! Fumpty-dumpty-dumpty-dumpy!"
"Does the Giant Giant look happy or grumpy?"
"GRUMPY?!"
"GRUMPY?!"
"Fee-fi-
fo-fumpy!
I am feeling VERY grumpy!" he said with remorse.
"Fee-fi-fluppy-yuppy!
I can't find my
little puppy!"
"¡Estoy MUY triste! (I'm very sad!)"
AWWW! The Giant-Giant can't his puppy! THAT's why he's feeling grumpy.
"Señor Gigante-Gigante (Mr. Giant-Giant)!
"Maybe I can find your puppy!""
"Oh, ¡gracias!" Now the giant feels all better.
Will you help Dora find the giant-giant’s puppy?
His puppy goes... (imitates barking)
Where is the Puppy hiding behind?
Behind the house! You found the puppy! Let's see what's behind the other items.
There's an owl behind the windmill and a big mouse behind the barn.
That's a big puppy!
"Thanks for finding my puppy! ¡Gracias!"
Dora explains to the giant that she has to teach the giant rocks to sing so she can become a true princess.
"Rocks to sing? Hey!
That's a toughy, ¡eso es MUY dificil! (that is very difficult!)"
She then explains to him about the magic music box.
She said that it plays music that’s so beautiful,
that it can teach anything to sing.
(grunts)
"It's stuck!"
Help her wind up the music box.
Wind, wind, wind!
It worked! Look at that?
(Bouncy tune plays)
"¡Que bella cancion! (What a beautiful song!)"
Here's a magic music box, if we play it near these rocks
Boingy, boingy, boingy bing! We'll get these rocks to sing!
Boingy, boingy, boingy bing!
We‘ll get these rocks to sing!
It looks like the doggy wants to join in! "Maybe if we all sing the song," said Dora, "we can get the giant rocks to sing!" Will you sing the song with Dora and the Giant?
"Oh, great!" said Dora. The sg goes like this: Boingy, boingy, boingy bing! We'll get these rocks to sing!
"Sing with me!" she said.
Boingy, boingy, boingy bing! We'll get these rocks to sing!
"Louder!"
BOINGY, BOINGY, BOINGY BING! WE'LL GET THESE ROCKS TO SING!
"Faster!"
Boingy-boingy-boingy-bing! We'll-get-these-rocks-to-sing!
"Fast and loud!"
BOINGY-BOINGY-BOINGY-BING! WE'LL-GET-THESE-ROCKS-TO-SING!''
Look what's happening! Faces are appearing!
Mi-mi-mi! Mi-mi-mi! (It's working!)
Mi-mi-mi!
Thank you, magic music box!
Thank you from us giant rocks!
Boingy, boingy, boingy bing!
You taught us rocks to sing!
Now we love
to sing!
Especially the words…
Boingy Biiiiiiiiing!
BOINGY BING!
Yay!
The rocks are bowing.
Muy bien, Dora! You taught the giant rocks to sing.
Singing is fun!
Mi-mi-mi Here we go again!
(Uh-oh! Look who's back!)
As the rocks continue singing, the witch is angry.
"Bah!" she scoffed.
"Bah!" she scoffed.
"I can't BELIEVE IT! (gasps) DORA TAUGHT THE ROCKS TO SING!"
Broom and Wand are cheering for Dora! (They must be impressed, but the Witch is not.)
"¡SILENCIO!"
"RAH, RAH!" cheered the Silly Wand.
"BE… QUIET!!!"
"¡Vuela, Broomstick!
¡VUELA!"
Up she goes!
"I'M GETTING
DIZZYYYYYY!!!!!" shouted the Witch.
"SOOOOOOO-RRYYYYY,
BOOOOOSS!!!!!" the Silly Broom replied.
(Remember, we ALL make mistakes!)
"Dora, I have present for you! It will help you become a true princess!"
Inside this bag is a little bit of
sunshine! "Sol caliente para mi gente."
"Oh, si! Es bien cailiente!" ("Oh yes! It is very hot!")
"I can use the sunshine to make things warm!"
"¡Cuidado! (Careful!)
Once you open the bag, the sunshine will escape! Don't open the bag until you need it!"
An idea flew into Dora's head. She can put the bag in her backpack for safe keeping.
"Yum, yum, yum! ¡Delicioso!" said Backpack.
"¡Gracias, Señor Gigante-Gigante!" ("Thank you, Mr. Giant-Giant!")
Goodbye, Giant Rocks!
The Fiesta Trio ride the Three Billy Goats Gruff.
"You have passed the second test to become a true princess!!"
"¡Vuelen, Billy Goats Gruff!
¡VUELEN!"
"We only have
TWO more tests to go,
so we can wake up Boots!"
"We have to figure out where we go next!"
"Say 'Map'!"
(Look how proud he is!)
(SPRIIIIIIING!)
"HOORAY FOR DORA! She NEVER gives up!" cheers Map.
You've found the red ring, check! You've taught the Giant Rocks to sing. Check! Where do we go next?
Winter, right! Winter Valley!
"Brrrrr!"
We have to turn Winter into Spring!
So tell Dora: Next we go to Winter Valley!
"Where do we go next?"
Tell her where!
"Winter Valley, right!"
"Brrrrr!"
Donde esta?
Do you see Winter Valley?
Si, ahi esta!
"Dora!" said another talking mirror.
"Over here,
look!"
Let's see what the Seven Dwarves have to say.
Ready for the update?
"Dora, there aren't many leaves left on
the wall!"
"Quick!
You have to become a true princess
before my
last leaf falls!"
HURRY!!!
"I'm HURRYING!!"
Off she goes!
We made it to Winter Valley! It's very cold! ¡Tengo frío!
"Ay, ¡que frío!" said Dora shivering.
(Wait, guess who's watching her?)
"She'll NEVER be able to turn winter into spring!" said the Witch.
(Just yet...)
(Just yet...)
The wand and broomstick are freezing.
"That's right, boss!" they shivered.
Then an idea flew into her mind.
"I'm going to make it even COLDER!"
"¡MÁS FRÍO! Snowmen,
MARCH!"
"¡¡¡¡¡¡FRÍO,
FRÍO!!!!!!" they chanted.
"Snowballs,
ROLL!"
"¡¡¡¡¡¡FRÍO,
FRÍO!!!!!! " they chanted.
"Storm clouds,
WHIRL IN!"
"¡¡¡¡¡¡FRÍO,
FRÍO!!!!!!" they chanted, just like the snowmen and snowballs!
She's being surrounded!
Snowmen!!!
Snowballs!!!
Storm Clouds!!!
(OH, MY!)
(OH, MY!)
"It's getting even COLDER!"
"But I've GOTTA turn Winter into Spring!
The Giant gave us a bag of sunshine to make things warm!"
"Where did I put the bag of sunshine?"
Do you remember? (Think back to after the Giant Giant gave it to her and gave his warning.)
"In my Backpack, YES!"
You have to say, "Backpack!"
She can't hear you! "LOUDER!!!"
BACKPACK!!!!
"Brrrrrrr!!!"
"Ay, ¡qué frío! (Oh, it's cold!) Dora needs the bag of sunshine to help her turn winter into spring!"
Is the sunshine in the bag that's azul (blue)?
NO!
Is the sunshine in the bag that's amarilla (yellow)?
Si, muy bien! You found the bag of sunshine!
Ah, that's much better!
And look what was in the other bags!
Here it comes!
The sun asks for help. "I need your help to make things hot."
"We have to say:
'caliente'."
"Can you say:
'caliente'?"
"Say:
'caliente'!"
Come on! Try it!
LOUDER!
"¡CALIENTE!"
"All right, the sun is making it WARMER!"
The witch is shocked!
In winter,
¡ay, mío!
I have to keep
it
frío!
I've frozen
the río!
I LOVE it
when it's
FRÍO!
If you wanna bring spring, then you gotta sing,
"Caliente"!
(Sing it!)
¡Caliente!
Come on, everyone! Let’s help out the sun,
¡Caliente!
(Come on!)
¡Caliente!
Dora asks,
"Can you sing 'caliente' after me and help me bring the spring?"
CAN you?
"Great!"
"I'll sing it first,
and then YOU sing it!"
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
IT'S WORKING!
What's happening?!
¡Ay, mío!
Are those FLOWERS
by the río?
Is spring here,
ALREADY?!
Our heads are
getting sweaty!!
Let's sing it some more
like we did before,
¡caliente!
¡Caliente!
We're helping the sun
and isn't it fun? ¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
¡Caliente!
"Wow! It's REALLY WORKING now!"
"I'm out of here!"
"Me too!"
"Me three!"
"Me too!"
"Me three!"
"HOW DOES THAT GIRL DO IT?!"
Hey look!
Spring is heeeeeeeeeeeeeere!!!!!
Yay!
We turned winter into spring! YES!
We turned winter into spring! YES!
AND LOOK!
The snowmen,
the snowball,
the storm clouds, AND the witch
are ALL going away!
"I LOVE SPRING!" said Dora.
The rabbits have a present for Dora.
Let's see what it is...
"It's a magic hairbrush!"
"When you use this brush, your hair will grow longer and longer!"
"Ay, gracias. ¡GRACIAS!"
As she tries to brush her hair now…
"¡CUIDADO, CUIDADO! WATCH OUT, WATCH OUT!", the animals shouted.
"The magic will only work once! Don't use the brush until you need it."
"Okay, I'll be careful!"
"GOOD LUCK! ¡BUENA SUERTE!" The animals wishing Dora good luck both in English and Spanish.
Hey, who's that riding in that pumpkin carriage?
"You have passed the third test to become a true princess!!!"
"YES!"
It all comes down to our last test!
"Only one more test
to go,
and we can wake up Boots!"
"We have to figure out
where to go next!"
(One more time!) "Say 'Map!'"
(SPRIIIIING!)
Look how proud Map is! "WOW, Dora has ALMOST become a TRUE princess!"
We found the ring, check! We taught the Giant Rocks to sing, check! We turned winter into spring, check! Where do we go next?
The castle, right!
We have to bring the moon to the queen and king!
So tell Dora: Next, we go to the castle!
"Where do we go next?"
Tell her!
"The castle, right!"
"We need to find the castle."
Donde esta?
Do you see the castle?
Si, ahi esta!
"But, where are the queen and king?"
Do you see the queen and king?
Up there on the tallest tower!
"Yes, yes! We're up here!" (The king is a lion and the queen is a lioness.)
"Your majesties!"
"Dora the Explorer,
you must be very brave to have come so far!"
"You have
passed many tests,
but I'm afraid this last test is
the hardest of all!
You must bring us…
the Moon!"
Whoa...
"Haha, now Dora's gonna give up!" the Witch whispered.
"I will NEVER give up!" said Dora when she was going to prove the Witch wrong.
"Boy, this girl is SOMETHING!" said Wand.
This is the final test: "I need to bring the moon
to the queen and king!"
"WOW!
I think we need help from
ALL our friends!"
"Come
on!
Let's call our friend Isa the Iguana!"
"Say:
'ISA!!!'"
ISA!!!
"LOUDER!
ISA!!!"
Here comes Isa to help!
"Hi, Dora!
I'm here to help!"
"That's great, Isa!"
"That's great, Isa!"
Now, let's call our friend Tico the Squirrel!"
"Say:
'TICO!!!'"
TICO!!!
Tico's here!
"¡Hola, Dora!
¡A tu servicios! (At your service!)"
"Gracias, Tico! Que bueno que llegaste!"
"Gracias, Tico! Que bueno que llegaste!"
"Now, let's call our friend Benny the Bull!"
"Say:
'BENNY!!!'"
BENNY!!!
Here he comes!
"Hey, guys!"
"Hi, Dora! I'm here to help!"
"That's SO great, Benny!"
"Come on,
let's climb up the stairs to Dora!" said Isa.
They are about to go up
until…
Uh-oh, the witch is back and up to no good.
Oh, no! The steps!
"The Witch made the steps disappear!" cried Isa.
"Now there's NO WAY you can climb up and help your friend!" said the Witch.
(cackling)
(This is awful!)
"Dora! How are we ever gonna make it to the top of the tower so we can help you?!" asked Benny.
"I've got an idea:
The animals in Spring
gave me a magic hairbrush!"
"I can use the hairbrush to make my hair REALLY long,
and then my friends can climb up my hair!" (Just like in the story of Rapunzel.)
King Lion and Queen Lioness loved the idea.
So did Benny, Tico, and Isa.
"Will YOU help me brush my hair
really, REALLY long?"
"Great!"
"Help me brush my hair!
"Hold up your hand,
and
brush
your hair!" (Look at how it's lengthened!)
Brush,
brush,
brush,
brush!
"It's working!
My
hair is
GROWING!" (Keep going, Dora!)
"Come on!
Climb up
my hair!" said Dora.
Benny, Tico and Isa are climbing up Dora's hair to detour up to the top of the castle.
Up and up they go!
Part of her hair forms a tunnel for Isa,
Tico,
and Benny to get through.
"You're here, you're ALL here!"
"Group hug! Group hug!"
"Now we can help you get to the moon!"
But how do we get to the moon?
(Tico said, "Sí, ¡es MUY dificil!" ("Yes, it's VERY hard!"))
(Tico said, "Sí, ¡es MUY dificil!" ("Yes, it's VERY hard!"))
Look! Stars!
Do you see stars?
The stars are making a staircase to the moon.
But first, they all have to catch them.
Tico's climbing to catch a star!
Viva, Tico! (Go, Tico!)
A step is formed.
(Benny grunting)
Benny is using his muscles to catch a star!
Go, Benny!
Another step is formed.
Isa caught a star with her tail!
Awesome, Isa!
Another step formed.
Dora has an excellent idea!
"GOTCHA!" (Nice catch!)
WOW! What a super-jump!
"Wow! Dora super jumped to catch a star!" said Benny.
Yay, Dora!
Next step is formed. But it's not enough.
But we need one more star!
It's Fairy Star!
She has magical fairy dust! Oooh!
"We gotta catch Fairy Star!" She's fast!
"Look, she's coming to you! YOU have to catch Fairy Star!"
Catch it, catch it, catch it!
The staircase is finished!
"We all did it together!"
Now she can climb the stairs to the moon!
"Go, Dora!"
She made it!
Everyone cheers for her.
"¡Gracias, estrellas!"
The stars fly away (for the last time if going by production order, as this would be the end of the Explorer Stars era in the series)!
"Hi, Moon!"
"Hi, Dora!" said the Moon.
Dora hugs the Moon.
"I've always wished you would come to see me! How can I help you?"
Dora thoroughly explains to the moon what she wants for Moon to do. "Moon, I need you to come visit
a queen and king."
The Moon thought for a moment
and said,
"Okay,
I'll do it!"
All right!
"¡CARAMBA!
How did you get up here?!"
"I took away the steps!"
(gasps) "And where's Dora?!" she wondered.
"Here I am!" a voice went, which happens to be Dora.
"Queen and King,
I have brought you the moon!"
The Fiesta Trio with fairy wings.
"You have passed the fourth test to become a true princess!"
Here comes that Witch!
She doesn't look delighted at all!
Just look at her face!
"Uh-oh!"
"You found the red ring!
You taught the giant rocks to sing!"
(furiously): "YOU TURNED WINTER INTO SPRING!
AND YOU BROUGHT THE MOON TO THE QUEEN AND KING!!!"
(What's that supposed to mean?)
"YOU BROKE MY SPELL!!!"
"ALL MY POWER IS…
GOOOOOOOOONE!!!!!"
"She has no more power, Dora."
"She is flying far, far, far, far away
and will never be seen again!"
HOORAY!!! (That naughty witch will never bother us again!)
"Come forward, Dora," said King Lion.
She does so.
King Lion has something to say to her.
"Dora the Explorer,
you have passed
EVERY test."
Here comes the big moment! "You are now...
...a true princess!" he says.
(Wow! What's happening?)
Dora is about to transform!
"Look!" said Benny.
Now watch this!
Dora's shoes
turn into
princess slippers!
"Dora's shoes are
"Dora's shoes are
so sparkly!" Benny said.
FLASH!
Dora's clothes have changed!
"Wow!
Her hair is longer and curly
what a
shiny
gown!" said Isa.
Now for the last magic...
Dora's hair
rises up
and gets
tucked inside
a headdress!
"She's
wearing a
princess
hat!" Benny said.
"¡Que bella
princesa!" ("What a beautiful princess!") Tico said.
And Dora the Explorer is now La Princesa Dora of Fairytale Land!
"You have turned into
a true princess!"
"LA PRINCESA DORA!!"
"YAY! You're a princess!"
"Wow, Dora. You're a TRUE princess!"
"Wow, Dora. You're a TRUE princess!"
"You look great!"
"But I have to HURRY!"
"I HAVE to wake up Sleeping Boots!"
"I have to hug him before the last leaf falls!"
The magic mirror has yet another notification, and one about that.
"There's only ONE LEAF LEFT!"
"And it's starting to fall!!"
"HURRY, DORA!! HURRY!!"
"Quick!
SEND IN THE UNICORNS!!!"
Here they come!
"We have to hurry!"
"Come on!
We have to help the unicorns
fly
to Boots!"
To tell the unicorns to fly, we say, "vuelen!" Say, "Vuelen!"
LOUDER!
VUELEN!!!
Off she goes! (Look at that view!)
There's Spring Valley, what used to be Winter Valley! She turned winter into spring!
"We have to fly over Spring Valley!"
"Say, 'Vuelen!'"
There's the Giant Rocks! With help from the Giant-Giant and his puppy, she taught those giant rocks how to sing!
"We have to fly over the Giant Rocks!"
"Say, 'Vuelen!'"
There’s the Dragon's Cave! That's where she found the red ring!
"We have to fly past the Dragon's Cave!"
"Say, 'Vuelen!'"
Almost there!
Dora, Dora, Hurry!
"THE LAST LEAF IS FALLING!!!"
"IT'S FALLING!!!!!"
"HURRY, PRINCESA DORA!!!!!" they all shouted to her.
"Quick! I need your help to wake up Sleeping Boots!"
"Help me hug Boots!"
"Put your arms around yourself...
"And hug, hug,
HUG!"
"Hug yourself TIGHT!"
"TIGHTER, TIGHTER!!!"
"Look!!!" said the Dwarves.
Sure enough, Boots woke up!
"Dora…" Boots said.
"I had the most amazing dream!”
"I dreamt that you became a princess with REALLY long hair!" he explained.
But, it's not just a dream…Boots is REALLY shocked that it's real!
"My dream! It came true!" said Boots.
You saved me!
Ladies and Gentlemen the winner by passing the test, the new Princess of Fairytale land, DORA MARQUEZ!!!!!
The wall got more leaves!
"Princesa Dora
woke up
Sleeping Boots!" the wall announced to everyone.
YAY!!!
Look!
The Fiesta Trio came to congratulate!
"YAY, PRINCESA DORA!
YOU DID IT!!!" cheered the Fiesta Trio.
Most of all, Dora wants to thank the Explorer Stars and to our dear God. Except for her twins being born. This is the greatest day of her life!
They slap
a high-five.
"WE DID IT!"
We did it!
We did it!
We did it!
YAY!
Lo hicimos! (Notice how Backpack returned after she somehow disappeared.)
We did it!
We went to Fairytale Land,
and Boots
fell into a
sleep!
We did it!
We did it!
HOORAY!!!
Then Dora
became a "princesa"
to rescue
me!
We did it!
We did it!
We did it!
I used the magic brush,
and my hair
grew and grew!
Then I got a hug from Dora…
and my dream came true!
HOORAY, PRINCESA DORA!!!
WE DID IT!!!
"And so,
Sleeping Boots
was awoke at last.
The mean Witch was NEVER seen again.
And everyone in Fairytale Land lived happily ever after!" (The End!)
(click, beep)
"WOW!"
"We had such an exciting trip today
in Fairytale Land!"
"What was your favorite part of the trip?"
Go ahead and tell them the best part of the fairytale adventure!
"That was a VERY good part!" (which means she likes it too)
Boots' favorite part
was waking up
and seeing "La Princesa Dora".
And La Princesa Dora's favorite part
was when she woke up Sleeping Boots
with a BIG hug!
"We couldn't have done it
without YOU!"
"Thanks for helping!"
"¡¡Gracias!!"
Fare thee well, and enjoy the rest your day, guys!
(Click, beep)
The end! (Dora will better get a haircut if her parents will see her the beauty of a real Princess.)
The end! (Dora will better get a haircut if her parents will see her the beauty of a real Princess.)
Help Fairy Star turn Dora back into a true princess[]
Fairy Star is gonna turn Dora back into a princess, but she could use some help. Let's speak Spanish! First, try to say the Spanish word "zapatos" so she can change Dora's shoes.
Look, her shoes transformed! Now help Fairy Star give Dora a "lovely" dress! In English, we say "dress". In Spanish, we say "vestido". Say, "vestido".
(NOTE: This stage would later be used and retooled in "Dora Saves Fairytale Land".)
Almost done! To tell Fairy Star to make Dora's hair long, say, "Cabello largo".
You did it! Dora is now La Princess Dora once again! Great job!
