                               FROZEN




                             Written by

                            Jennifer Lee



                                             Final Shooting Draft
                                                          9/23/13




   OPEN ON: ICE.

   We're underwater looking up at it. A saw cuts through,
   heading right for us.


   EXT. SNOW-CAPPED MOUNTAINS -- DUSK

   ICE HARVESTERS, dressed in traditional Sami clothing, score a
   frozen lake. They SING.

                   "The Frozen Heart (Ice Worker's Song)"

                            ICE HARVESTERS
                  BORN OF COLD AND WINTER AIR
                  AND MOUNTAIN RAIN COMBINING,
                  THIS ICY FORCE BOTH FOUL AND FAIR
                  HAS A FROZEN HEART WORTH MINING.

   The men drag giant ice blocks through channels of water.

                            ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
                  CUT THROUGH THE HEART, COLD AND CLEAR.
                  STRIKE FOR LOVE AND STRIKE FOR FEAR.

                  SEE THE BEAUTY SHARP AND SHEER.
                  SPLIT THE ICE APART!
                  AND BREAK THE FROZEN HEART.
                  Hup! Ho! Watch your step! Let it go!

   A young Sami boy, KRISTOFF (8), and his reindeer calf, SVEN,
   share a carrot as they try to keep up with the men.

                            ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
                  Hup! Ho! Watch your step! Let it go!

   Young Kristoff struggles to get a block of ice out of the
   water. He fails, ends up soaked. Sven licks his wet cheek.

                            ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
                  BEAUTIFUL! POWERFUL! DANGEROUS! COLD!
                  ICE HAS A MAGIC CAN'T BE CONTROLLED.

   A sharp ice floe overtakes the workers, threateningly. They
   fight it back.

                            ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
                  STRONGER THAN ONE, STRONGER THAN TEN
                  STRONGER THAN A HUNDRED MEN!

   Massive fjord horses drag heavy ice plows.
                                                                2
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
                  BORN OF COLD AND WINTER AIR
                  AND MOUNTAIN RAIN COMBINING

   The sun sets. Lanterns are lit.

                            ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
                  THIS ICY FORCE BOTH FOUL AND FAIR
                  HAS A FROZEN HEART WORTH MINING.
                  CUT THROUGH THE HEART, COLD AND CLEAR.

   In the dark, Kristoff and Sven finally manage to get a single
   block of ice out of the water.

                            ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
                  STRIKE FOR LOVE AND STRIKE FOR FEAR.
                  THERE'S BEAUTY AND THERE'S DANGER HERE.
                  SPLIT THE ICE APART!
                  BEWARE THE FROZEN HEART.

   The workers pile onto the giant horse-drawn ice sled as it
   pulls away.

   Left behind, Kristoff and Sven push their ice block onto a
   dinky little sled then head off.

   We sweep up from them to the Northern Lights filling the
   sky...then move across the mountains...beneath the
   snowline...and descend upon...


   EXT. THE KINGDOM OF ARENDELLE -- NIGHT

   A humble castle, built of wood, nestled in a deep fjord.


   INT. CASTLE, NURSERY -- NIGHT

   ELSA (8) sleeps in her bed. Her little sister ANNA (5) pops
   up beside her.

                            YOUNG ANNA
                  Elsa. Psst. Elsa! Psst.

   Elsa doesn't stir. Anna sits on Elsa and bounces.

                            YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.

                            YOUNG ELSA
                      (grumbling)
                  Anna, go back to sleep.

   Anna rolls onto her back and spreads all her weight on Elsa.
                                                              3
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            YOUNG ANNA
                      (drama queen-ish)
                  I just can't. The sky's awake, so
                  I'm awake, so we have to play.

                            YOUNG ELSA
                  ...Go play by yourself.

   Elsa shoves Anna off the bed.

   Anna lands butt to floor, sighs, defeated. But then she gets
   an idea. She hops back on the bed and lifts one of Elsa's
   eyelids.

                            YOUNG ANNA
                      (mischievously)
                  Do you want to build a snowman?

   Elsa's eyes both pop open. She smiles.


   INT. CASTLE STAIRCASE -- NIGHT

   Anna, now wearing snow boots, pulls Elsa by the hand.

                            YOUNG ANNA
                  Come on, come on, come on, come on.

   Elsa tries to shush her, but Anna's too excited.


   INT. BALLROOM -- NIGHT

   The girls sneak into the ballroom. Elsa shuts the door.

                            YOUNG ANNA
                  Do the magic! Do the magic!

   Elsa laughs and waves her hands together. Snowflakes suddenly
   burst forth and dance between her palms, forming a snowball.
   Elsa throws the snowball high into the air. Snow bursts out
   and flurries around the room. Anna dances about, catching
   flakes in her palms and mouth.

                            YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
                  This is amazing!

                            YOUNG ELSA
                  Watch this!

   Elsa stomps her little slippered foot and a layer of ice
   suddenly coats the floor, forming a giant ice rink. Anna
   slides off, laughing.
                                                              4
FROZEN - J. Lee



   PLAY MONTAGE:

   -Anna and Elsa roll giant snowballs and build a snowman
   together. Elsa moves his stick arms around.

                            YOUNG ELSA (CONT'D)
                      (goofy voice)
                  Hi, I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs.

   Anna jumps up and hugs him.

                            YOUNG ANNA
                  I love you, Olaf.

   -Anna and Olaf appear to be dancing. REVEAL: Elsa is actually
   propelling them across the ice floor with her magic.

   -The girls slide down snowbanks together!

   -Anna fearlessly jumps off a snow peak into mid air.

                              YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Catch me!

   Elsa makes another peak to catch Anna.

                              YOUNG ELSA
                  Gotcha!

   Anna keeps jumping. Elsa keeps casting magic.

                            YOUNG ANNA
                      (jumping faster)
                  Again! Again!

                             YOUNG ELSA
                      (struggling to keep up)
                  Slow down!

   Elsa suddenly slips.

   Her magic accidentally STRIKES Anna in the head. Anna tumbles
   down a snowbank and lands, unconscious.

                              YOUNG ELSA (CONT'D)
                  ANNA!

   Elsa runs to Anna and takes her in her arms. A streak of
   Anna's hair, where struck, turns white.

                            YOUNG ELSA (CONT'D)
                  MAMA! PAPA!

   The room around them fills with frightening ice spikes.
                                                                     5
FROZEN - J. Lee



   The parents burst through the frozen door. GASP at the sight
   of the room.

                            KING
                  Elsa, what have you done? This is
                  getting out of hand!

                            QUEEN
                      (seeing Anna)
                  Anna!

   The King and Queen rush to Anna and take her in their arms.

                            ELSA
                  It was an accident. I'm sorry,
                  Anna.

                            QUEEN
                      (about Anna)
                  She's ice cold.

                            KING
                  ...I know where we have to go.

                                                      SLAM CUT TO:


   INT. DARK ROOM -- NIGHT

   The King sifts through a shelf to find an ancient book
   inscribed with Old Norse runes. He opens the book, scrambles
   to a page with an ancient map.


   EXT. ARENDELLE -- NIGHT

   Carrying the girls, the King and Queen ride their horses out
   of the kingdom. Snow streams from Elsa's hands, leaving a
   trail of ice behind them.


   EXT. FJORD MOUNTAIN FOREST -- NIGHT

   A sleepy Kristoff and Sven travel alone through the dark
   woods. All of a sudden, the King and Queen race by with the
   girls, leaving the wake of ice.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Ice?

                                                      SLAM CUT TO:
                                                                6
FROZEN - J. Lee



   EXT. BLACK MOUNTAINS -- NIGHT

   Kristoff rides Sven as they follow the trail of ice.

                            YOUNG KRISTOFF
                  Faster, Sven!


   EXT. THE VALLEY OF THE LIVING ROCK -- NIGHT

   Kristoff hops off Sven at the edge of a deep valley. They
   hide behind a rock and peek out.

   Down below, the King holds a frightened Elsa. The Queen holds
   the still unconscious Anna.

                            KING
                  Please, help. My daughter!

   Suddenly, a bunch of rocks tumble down the valley toward
   them. It looks as though they'll be crushed!

   But, luckily, the rocks stop at their feet. The rocks then
   unfold, revealing bright faces.

                               YOUNG KRISTOFF
                  Trolls...?

   The rock in front of Kristoff "wakes up." Meet BULDA.

                            BULDA
                  Shush. I'm trying to listen.

   She grabs Kristoff and Sven by hand and hoof and hugs them
   close. Sven licks her face and she eyes them both.

                            BULDA (CONT'D)
                  Cuties. I'm gonna keep you.

   Back below, the crowd parts for a troll as old as the Earth.
   They call him GRAND PABBIE. He approaches arthritically, but
   determined. He nods respectfully to the king.

                            GRAND PABBIE
                  Your Majesty.
                      (referring to Elsa)
                  Born with the powers or cursed?

                            KING
                  Born. And they're getting stronger.

   Grand Pabbie motions for the Queen to bring Anna to him. She
   does. He examines her.

FROZEN - J. Lee



                            GRAND PABBIE
                      (about Anna)
                  You are lucky it wasn't her heart.
                  The heart is not so easily changed,
                  but the head can be persuaded.

                            KING
                  Do what you must.

                            GRAND PABBIE
                  I recommend we remove all magic,
                  even memories of magic to be
                  safe.... But don't worry, I'll
                  leave the fun.

   Grand Pabbie pulls out a glowing blue energy from Anna's
   head. We see her memories floating right above her. Grand
   Pabbie changes all of her magical memories to ordinary
   memories -- snowy play indoors with the girls in their
   nightgowns changes to outdoors on the winter fjords with the
   girls in winter gear. He puts the ordinary memories back in
   her head.

                            GRAND PABBIE (CONT'D)
                  She will be okay.

                            YOUNG ELSA
                  But she won't remember I have
                  powers?

                            KING
                  It's for the best.

                             PABBIE
                  Listen to me, Elsa, your power will
                  only grow.

   As he speaks, he conducts the Northern Lights to show a
   silhouette of an adult Elsa creating magical snowflakes.

                            PABBIE (CONT'D)
                  There is beauty in your magic....
                  But also great danger.

   The snowflakes turn to sharp spikes.

                           PABBIE (O.S.) (CONT'D)
                  You must learn to control it.

   In the Northern Lights display, the sharp spikes cause human
   figures to panic and attack Elsa.

                            PABBIE (CONT'D)
                  Fear will be your enemy.
                                                                     8
FROZEN - J. Lee



   Elsa gasps and buries her face in the King's chest. The King
   wraps his arms around Elsa, protectively.

                            KING
                  No. We'll protect her. She can
                  learn to control it. I'm sure.

   Over the King's words we...

                                                      DISSOLVE TO:

   -The Arendelle castle gates shutting.

                            KING (O.S.) (CONT'D)
                  Until then, we'll lock the gates.
                  We'll reduce the staff. We will
                  limit her contact with people and
                  keep her powers hidden from
                  everyone... including Anna.

   -The castle shutters close.

   -Anna sits on her bed as Elsa's furniture disappears.

   -Anna rushes to the hall to see Elsa shut the door to her new
   room. Anna watches, confused and sad.

                                                      DISSOLVE TO:


   INT. CASTLE WINDOW -- DAY

   We look out on a gentle snowfall. Little Anna skips up to the
   window. She lights up at the sight of the snow and rushes
   down the hall.


   INT. HALLWAY, ELSA'S DOOR -- DAY

   Anna knocks on Elsa's door and SINGS.

                     "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?"

                            YOUNG ANNA
                  DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN?
                  COME ON LET'S GO AND PLAY.

   Anna peeks under the door.

                            YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
                  I NEVER SEE YOU ANYMORE.
                  COME OUT THE DOOR.
                  IT'S LIKE YOU'VE GONE AWAY.
                                                                 9
FROZEN - J. Lee



   -INT. ANNA'S ROOM -- Anna plays with two dolls, gives up, sad.

                            YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
                  WE USED TO BE BEST BUDDIES
                  AND NOW WE'RE NOT.
                  I WISH YOU WOULD TELL ME WHY.

   -ELSA'S DOOR. Anna peeks through the key hole.

                            YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
                  DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN?

   -Anna calls through the keyhole.

                            YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
                  IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A SNOWMAN.

                            YOUNG ELSA (O.S.)
                  Go away, Anna.

                            YOUNG ANNA
                      (hearbroken)
                  ...OKAY BYE.

   -BEHIND THE DOOR -- DAY. Elsa sits at the window looking out,
   longingly. Suddenly, her icy hands freeze the windowsill.

   -LATER. The King slips leather gloves onto Elsa's hands.

                            KING
                  The gloves will help.

   He pats her gloved hand.

                            KING (CONT'D)
                  See? You're good....

                  Conceal it.

                            YOUNG ELSA
                  Don't feel it.

                            YOUNG ELSA & KING
                  Don't let it show.

   -INT. HALLWAY, ELSA'S DOOR -- DAY. Anna, now 9, knocks on
   Elsa's door.

                            ANNA (9)
                  DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN?

   -INT. HALLWAY -- DAY. Alone, Anna rides a bicycle built for
   two in the hall by standing on the back seat.
                                                               10

                            ANNA (9) (CONT'D)
                  OR RIDE OUR BIKE AROUND THE HALL?
                  I THINK SOME COMPANY IS OVERDUE...

   -INT. PORTRAIT ROOM -- DAY. Anna runs around the portrait
   room, gaining momentum to flip over the arm of the couch.

                            ANNA (9) (CONT'D)
                  I'VE STARTED TALKING TO
                  THE PICTURES ON THE WALLS.

   Anna lands PLOP on the cushions, then looks up at the
   painting above her of the courageous Joan of Arc.

                            ANNA (9) (CONT'D)
                  Hang in there, Joan.

   -INT. EMPTY LIBRARY -- DAY. Looks like no one's around.

                            ANNA (9) (CONT'D)
                  IT GETS A LITTLE LONELY
                  ALL THESE EMPTY ROOMS.

   But then we find Anna, laying at the base of the grandfather
   clock, playing with her braids, bored out of her mind.

                            ANNA (9) (CONT'D)
                  JUST WATCHING THE HOURS TICK BY.

   Anna's eyes follow the grandfather clock's pendulum.

                            ANNA (9) (CONT'D)
                  TICK TOCK. TICK TOCK. TICK TOCK.

   -INT. ELSA'S ROOM -- NIGHT. Elsa (now 12) paces as she panics.
   The entire wall is frozen behind her.

                            ELSA (12)
                  I'm scared. It's getting stronger.

                            KING
                  Getting upset only makes it worse.

   The King goes to hug her.

                            ELSA (12)
                  No. Don't touch me. I don't want to
                  hurt you.

   He and the Queen look at each other with alarmed sadness.

   -INT. LIBRARY -- DAY. Anna, now a teenager, slides past Elsa's
   room without stopping.
                                                                11

   -INT. KING AND QUEEN'S QUARTERS -- DAY. Anna runs into the
   room and throws herself into her parents' arms.

                            TEEN ANNA
                  See you in two weeks.

   -INT. ELSA'S ROOM -- DAY. Elsa curtsies in front of her
   parents, formally, not touching them.

                            TEEN ELSA
                  Do you have to go?

                            KING
                  You'll be fine, Elsa.

   -EXT. DOCKS -- DAY. The King and Queen leave on a ship.

   -EXT. ROUGH SEAS -- NIGHT. Lightning flashes. The sea rages in
   a storm. The King and Queen's ship is lost in the waves.

   -INT. CASTLE -- DAY. A portrait of the King and Queen is
   covered in mourning cloth.

   -EXT. CEMETERY -- DAY. Anna looks small, standing before her
   people, beside burial stones.

   -INT. HALLWAY, ELSA'S DOOR. Anna, still in her mourning
   clothes, approaches and knocks.

                            ANNA
                      (singing)
                  Elsa? PLEASE I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE

                  I'M RIGHT OUT HERE FOR YOU.
                  PLEASE LET ME IN.

   Anna slides down the door and sits with her head against it.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  WE ONLY HAVE EACH OTHER.
                  IT'S JUST YOU AND ME.

                      (weak, internal)
                  DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN?

   We move through the door...

   -INT. ELSA'S ROOM -- DAY. Elsa is sitting in the exact same
   pose as Anna. Her bedroom is frozen with ice. Snowflakes hang
   in the air, suspended by grief.

                                                        FADE OUT.

   EXT. THE KINGDOM OF ARENDELLE -- MORNING

   A new dawn rises over the fjords.

   Ships pull up to the docks. Guests pile out.

                            DOCK MASTER
                  Welcome to Arendelle!

   A BOY tries to get away as his MOTHER tries to stuff him in
   his bunad jacket.

                            BOY
                  Why do I have to wear this?

                            MOTHER
                  Because the Queen has come of age.
                  It's Coronation Day!

                            BOY
                  That's not my fault.

   They pass the May Pole being raised and a Sami ice harvester
   chatting with his reindeer. We recognize them as Kristoff and
   Sven, all grown up. Sven hops around excitedly like a dog and
   nuzzles Kristoff's chest.

                            KRISTOFF
                  What do you want, Sven?

   Kristoff leans in and speaks for Sven, as if he can.

                            KRISTOFF (AS SVEN) (CONT'D)
                  Give me a snack.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  What's the magic word?

                            KRISTOFF (AS SVEN) (CONT'D)
                  Please!

   Kristoff pulls a carrot out of his shirt pocket and hands it
   to Sven. Sven tries to bite the whole thing.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Hey, hey, hey! Share!

   Sven takes a smaller bite. Kristoff then has a bite himself,
   not seeming to care that it's covered in reindeer slobber.

   We move on to PERSI and AGGIE, a super-excited couple who
   rush towards the castle.
                                                              13

                            PERSI
                  I can't believe they're finally
                  opening up the gates!

                            AGGIE
                  And for a whole day! Faster, Persi!

   They pass a tiny but menacing DUKE, who wears taps on his
   shoes to "enhance" his presence. Two THUG guards follow close
   behind him.

                            DUKE
                  Ah, Arendelle, our most mysterious
                  trade partner. Open those gates so
                  I may unlock your secrets and
                  exploit your riches.
                      (catching himself)
                  ...Did I just say that out loud?

   We leave him and head down the bridge towards the castle
   gates, passing an Irishman and a Spanish Dignitary.

                            IRISHMAN
                  Oh, me sore eyes can't wait to see
                  the Queen and the Princess. I bet
                  they're absolutely lovely.

                            SPANISH DIGNITARY
                  I bet they are beautiful.

   We move past them, to a particular castle window.

                  Princess Anna...?

   Anna sits up. She's got major bedhead. She coughs. Snorts.
   Pulls a hair from her mouth.

                            ANNA
                  ...Huh? Yeah?

   She falls back asleep while sitting. She snores. Her head
   drops, startling her awake.

                               ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Who is it?

                            KAI (O.S.)
                  It's still me, ma'am. Time to get

                  Ready for what?

                            KAI (O.S.)

                            ANNA
                  My sister's cor-neration...

   One eye opens enough to catch sight of her coronation dress.
   She bolts, wide awake in excitement.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Coronation Day! Ha ha!

   EXT. CASTLE HALL -- DAY

   Anna bursts out of her room, wearing her coronation dress.
   She finishes pinning ribbons in her hair. Seeing the hustle
   and bustle of preparations, she can't help but SING.

                       "For the First Time in Forever"

                            ANNA
                  THE WINDOW IS OPEN!
                  SO'S THAT DOOR!
                  I DIDN'T KNOW THEY DID THAT ANYMORE.
                  WHO KNEW WE OWNED 8000 SALAD PLATES...?

   -Anna slides along the floor of the ballroom in her socks.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  FOR YEARS I HAVE ROAMED THESE EMPTY HALLS

   evidence.

                  IT'LL BE TOTALLY STRANGE.
                  BUT WOW AM I SO READY FOR THIS CHANGE!

   -Anna comes to a window and jumps out onto a window washer's
   pulley. She raises herself up to see the ships arriving.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,

                  I'LL BE DANCING THROUGH THE NIGHT.

   -Anna walks through the garden and follows a family of geese.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  DON'T KNOW IF I'M ELATED OR GASSY,

                  'CAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,

                  I can't wait to meet everyone....
                  (GASP) What if I meet THE ONE?

   -Anna twists herself in a velvet drape like it's a gown. She
   acts like she looks gorgeous, but she looks ridiculous.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  TONIGHT, IMAGINE ME GOWN AND ALL-
                  FETCHINGLY DRAPED AGAINST THE WALL.
                  THE PICTURE OF SOPHISTICATED GRACE.

   -She notices the bust of a man across the room.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                      (google-eyed)
                  I SUDDENLY SEE HIM STANDING THERE,
                  A BEAUTIFUL STRANGER TALL AND FAIR.

                  I WANNA STUFF SOME CHOCOLATE IN MY

                  BUT THEN WE LAUGH AND TALK ALL EVENING,
                  WHICH IS TOTALLY BIZARRE.
                  NOTHING LIKE THE LIFE I'VE LED SO FAR.

   The bust goes flying and lands on the top of the cake.

   -Anna bursts into the portrait room, bounces on the
   furniture, and interacts with the paintings.
                                                               16

                  BE THE GOOD GIRL
                  YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO BE.

   Elsa moves to a painting of her father's coronation. She
   takes off her gloves and mimics the painting by holding a
   candlestick and ornament in place of an orb and scepter.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  CONCEAL. DON'T FEEL.

                  MAKE ONE WRONG MOVE
                  AND EVERYONE WILL KNOW.

   The candlestick and ornament ice over. Elsa gasps, slams them
   back down onto the table. She tries to reassure herself.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  BUT IT'S ONLY FOR TODAY.

   She falls back and lands in a small wooden boat. It tips off
   of the dock. She's heading overboard. But just then, the
   horse slams his hoof into the boat and steadies it.

                               ANNA (CONT'D)
                         (frustrated)
                  Hey!

                            HANS
                  I'm so sorry. Are you hurt?

   The rider, HANS, sure is handsome and regal.

                            ANNA
                      (gentler)
                  Hey. I-ya, no. No. I'm okay.

                            HANS
                  Are you sure?

                            ANNA
                  Yeah, I just wasn't looking where I
                  was going. But I'm okay.

   He hops down from his horse and steps into the boat.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  I'm great, actually.

                            HANS
                  Oh, thank goodness.

   He offers her a hand and their eyes meet. Chemistry. He helps
   her to her feet.

                            HANS (CONT'D)
                      (bowing)
                  Prince Hans of the Southern Isles.

                            ANNA
                      (curtseying)
                  Princess Anna of Arendelle.

                            HANS
                  Princess...? My Lady.

   He drops to his knees, head bowed. The horse bows too,
   curling his hoof up and out of the boat.

   The boat tips. Hans tumbles on top of Anna. Awkward.

                            ANNA
                  Hi...again.

   The horse slams his foot back into the boat to stabilize it.
   Anna and Hans tumble the other way. Anna lands on top of him.

                            HANS
                  Oh boy.

                            ANNA
                  Ha. This is awkward. Not you're
                  awkward, but just because we're--
                  I'm awkward. You're gorgeous.
                      (did she just say that?)
                  Wait, what?

   Hans quickly gets to his feet and helps Anna up again.

                            HANS
                  I'd like to formally apologize for
                  hitting the Princess of Arendelle
                  with my horse...and for every
                  moment after.

                            ANNA
                  No. No-no. It's fine. I'm not THAT
                  Princess. I mean, if you'd hit my
                  sister Elsa, that would be-- yeash!
                  `Cuz, you know...
                      (patting the horse)

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                      (to Hans)
                  But, lucky you, it's-it's just me.

                              HANS
                  Just you?

   Hans smiles, amused. She smiles back. The bells RING. She
   doesn't notice at first; she's too busy drinking in Hans's
   handsomeness.

                            ANNA
                  ...The bells. The coronation. I-I-I
                  better go. I have to...I better go.

   She hurries off, stops, turns back. Gives Hans a little wave.

                              ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Bye!

   As she rushes off again, Hans waves back. The horse waves
   too, once again taking his hoof out of the boat.

                              HANS
                  Oh no.

   The boat falls, with Hans in it. SPLASH! It lands upside down
   in the water. Hans raises it up off of him, gasping for air.

                                                         CUT TO:

   INT. CHURCH CHAPEL -- DAY

   Elsa stands at the alter. Anna stands off to one side. She
   peeks out to the audience.

   Hans waves at her from the pews. He's changed his clothes.

   The crown is placed on Elsa's head. The scepter and orb are
   presented to Elsa on a pillow. She slowly reaches for them.

                            BISHOP
                      (a whisper)
                  Your Majesty, the gloves.

   Elsa hesitates. She breathes nervously, removes her gloves,
   places them on the pillow. Her hands shake. She takes the orb
   and scepter, then turns to the people.

                            BISHOP (CONT'D)
                      (formal, in Old Norse)

   The scepter and orb start to freeze over.

                            BISHOP (CONT'D)
                  ...Queen Elsa of Arendelle.

                            CROWD
                  Queen Elsa of Arendelle.

   Just in time. Elsa manages to set the orb and scepter back
   down on the pillow before anyone notices the ice. She picks
   up her gloves and slips them on. She made it.

                                                        CUT TO:


   INT. GREAT HALL -- NIGHT

   Springy music fills the Great Hall. Guests dance. Eat. Laugh.

   TRUMPETS SOUND.

                            KAI
                      (announcing)
                  Queen Elsa of Arendelle.

   Elsa enters, poised and looking surprisingly content. She
   stands under a formal awning.

                            KAI (CONT'D)
                  Princess Anna of Arendelle!

   Anna runs into the room, waves awkwardly. Kai ushers her over
   to stand right next to Elsa.

                            ANNA
                  Here? Are you sure?

   She and Elsa sneak awkward peeks at each other.

                            ELSA
                  ...Hi.

                            ANNA
                  Hi me...? Oh. Um. Hi.

                            ELSA
                  ...You look beautiful.

                            ANNA
                  Thank you. You look beautifuller. I
                  mean, not fuller. You don't look
                  fuller, but more beautiful.

                               ELSA
                  Thank you.

   They look out at the celebration.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  So, this is what a party looks
                  like?

                            ANNA
                  It's warmer than I thought.

                            ELSA
                  And what is that amazing smell?

   They both close their eyes and inhale.

                            ANNA AND ELSA (TOGETHER)
                  ...Chocolate.

   Their eyes pop open. They laugh.

   Elsa looks back out at the party. Anna looks at Elsa. She
   wants to say so much, but she can't think of where to start.
   Just as she finds her way, Kai interrupts.

                            KAI
                  Your Majesty. The Duke of
                  Weaseltown.

                            DUKE
                  Weselton. The Duke of Weselton.
                      (to Elsa)
                  Your Majesty, as your closest
                  partner in trade, it seems only
                  fitting that I offer you your first
                  dance as queen.

   The Duke does a funny flitter of his feet, a hitch-kick, and
   a deep bow.

                            DUKE (CONT'D)
                      (whispers to himself)
                  One, two, three. Jump.

   As he holds out his hand, head down, his toupee dips forward.
   Anna giggles. Elsa looks at Anna, stifles a giggle herself.

                            ELSA
                      (to the Duke)
                  Thank you...only I don't dance.
                                                               22

                      (offended)
                  Oh...?

                            ELSA
                  But my sister does.

                            ANNA
                  What?

                            DUKE
                  Lucky you....

                            ANNA
                  Oh, I don't think--

   The Duke grabs Anna's arm and yanks her away before she can
   protest.

                             DUKE
                  If you swoon, let me know, I'll
                  catch you.

   Anna looks back at Elsa, desperately.

                            ELSA
                  Sorry.

   OUT ON THE DANCE FLOOR: The Duke showboats, but he's just
   awful. Anna tries to make the best of it.

                            DUKE
                  Like an agile peacock... CLUCK-
                  CLUGGLE-CLUCK!

   He lands on her feet.

                            ANNA
                  Ow. Ow.

                            DUKE
                  Speaking of, so great to have the
                  gates open. Why did they shut them
                  in the first place? Do you know the
                  reason? Hmm?

   He gets in her face, suspicious.

                            ANNA
                  ...No.
                                                                   23

                            DUKE
                  Oh, all right. Hang on. They don't
                  call me the little dipper for
                  nothing.

   He dips Anna back. Elsa peeks through the crowd, can barely
   hold in her laughter. Anna shoots Elsa funny, help-me looks.

                            DUKE (CONT'D)
                      (groove fully on)
                  Like a chicken...with the face of a

   MOMENTS LATER...

   Anna limps back to Elsa.

                            DUKE (O.S.)
                  Let me know when you're ready for
                  another round, M'Lady.

                            ELSA
                  Well, he was sprightly.

                            ANNA
                      (rubbing her sore feet)
                  Especially for a man in heels.

                            ELSA
                  Are you okay?

                            ANNA
                      (loving Elsa's attention)
                  I've never been better. This is so
                  nice. I wish it could be like this
                  all the time.

                      (sincere)
                  Me too....

   But then Elsa catches herself. She stiffens up, looks away.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  But it can't.

                            ANNA

                            ELSA
                  It just can't.
                                                                24

   Anna's smile drops. She tries not to get emotional.

                            ANNA
                  Excuse me for a minute.

   She walks away. Elsa watches her go, saddened.

   Moving through the crowd, Anna gets bumped by a bowing man's
   butt. She falls. Just before she hits the floor, Hans catches
   her. He smiles perfectly.

                            HANS
                  Glad I caught you.

                               ANNA
                  Hans.

   He smoothly sets his drink down on a passing tray. He lifts
   her up and leads her in a romantic dance.

                  myself to slide... Oops. Sorry.

   She hits him in the face by mistake with her hand. He laughs.

   EXT. BALCONY -- NIGHT

   Anna teaches Hans how to eat krumkake.

                            ANNA
                  Yeah, the whole thing! You got it.

   They laugh as the krumkake crumbles in his face.

                            ANNA(CONT'D)
                  Okay wait, wait. So you have how
                  many brothers?

                            HANS
                  Twelve older brothers. Three of
                  them pretended I was invisible...
                  literally...for two years.

                            ANNA
                  That's horrible.

                  out, and I never knew why.

   He takes her hand. Leans in close.

                            HANS
                  I would never shut you out.

   They jump to the neighboring balcony and enter a door.

   They come out on top of one of the castle's towers.

   INT. BALL -- NIGHT

   Anna pushes through the crowd towards Elsa, Hans in tow.

                            ANNA
                  Oops! Pardon. Sorry. Can we just
                  get around you there? Thank you.
                  Oh, there she is. Elsa!

   Elsa turns to Anna. Anna curtseys awkwardly.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  I mean...Queen.... Me again. Um.
                  May I present Prince Hans of the

                      (bowing)
                  Your Majesty.

   Elsa gives a polite but reserved curtsey.

                            ANNA
                  We would like--

                            HANS

                  Well, we haven't worked out all the
                  details ourselves. We'll need a few
                  days to plan the ceremony. Of

                  Of course we have the room. I don't
                  know. Some of them must--

                            ELSA
                  Wait. Slow down. No one's brothers
                  are staying here. No one is getting
                  married.

                            ANNA
                  Wait, what?

                            ELSA
                  May I talk to you, please. Alone.

   Anna sees Hans's worried face. Hooks arms with him.

                            ANNA
                  No. Whatever you have to say, you-
                  you can say to both of us.

                            ELSA
                  Fine. You can't marry a man you
                  just met.

                            ANNA
                  You can if it's true love.

                            ELSA
                  Anna, what do you know about true
                  love?

                            ANNA
                  More than you. All you know is how
                  to shut people out.

                            ELSA
                  You asked for my blessing, but my
                  answer is no. Now, excuse me.

                      (flustered)
                  No, you may not. And I-I think you
                  should go.

   Elsa walks away. As she passes the Royal Handler--

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  The party is over. Close the gates.

                            ANNA
                  What? Elsa, no. No, wait!

   Anna grabs Elsa's hand. She pulls off Elsa's glove. Elsa
   gasps, spins around and reaches for the glove in panic.

                            ELSA
                  Give me my glove!

   Anna holds the glove away from Elsa.

                            ANNA
                      (desperate)
                  Elsa, please. Please. I can't live
                  like this anymore.

   Elsa fights tears.

                             ELSA
                      (weak)
                  ...Then leave.

   Elsa sees Anna's hurt face. It's too much. She can't hold it
   in. She turns and rushes away.

                            ANNA
                      (heartbroken)
                  ...What did I ever do to you?!

   The party goes silent as everyone watches the sisters.

                            ELSA
                  Enough, Anna.

                            ANNA
                  No. Why? Why do you shut me out?!
                  Why do you shut the world out?!
                  What are you so afraid of?!

                            ELSA
                  I said, enough!

   Ice shoots from Elsa's hand, spikes across the floor! Guests
   cry out in shock, back away.

                  Elsa...?

   Elsa rushes out of the room.

   Elsa ducks through the crowd, holding her bare hand.

                  Queen Elsa.

                            TOWNSWOMAN WITH BABY
                  Your Majesty? Are you all right?

   Elsa backs away from the baby. She knocks into the fountain,
   grabs its edge. The waters freeze at her touch.

   GASPS of shock and fear sweep over the crowd.

   The Duke and thugs come out the door.

                            DUKE
                  There she is! Stop her!

                  Stay away!

   Magic accidentally shoots from her hand and turns the
   staircase into ice. The thugs and the Duke fall.

   The crowd panics.

   A snowstorm begins. Elsa flees.

   Anna runs out of the palace doors, carrying the glove.

                            ANNA
                  Elsa!

   Hans follows closely behind her.

   GATES TO THE KINGDOM: Elsa runs out of the gates and down to
   the water's edge. The shoreline freezes under her feet.

   Anna calls to her from the gates.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Elsa! Wait, please!

   Elsa glances back at Anna, but turns away. She tentatively
   steps out onto the fjord. It freezes instantly. She breaks
   into a run, as the water freezes over with each step.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Elsa, stop!

   Anna rushes out onto the fjord ice, slips, falls.

                            HANS
                  Anna!

   Hans rushes to Anna's side.

   Elsa reaches the far shore. She doesn't look back. She just
   scrambles into the mountains.

                            ANNA
                  No.

                            HANS
                      (shocked)
                  Look.... The fjord.

   The ice spreads out until the entire fjord is frozen, locking
   the ships in place.


   INT. CASTLE COURTYARD -- NIGHT

   Snow falls. Hans and Anna move through the panicking crowd.

                            CROWD WALLAH
                  Snow? It's...snow...in July.

                            HANS
                  ...Are you all right?

                              ANNA
                        (in shock)
                  No.

                            HANS
                  Did you know?

                              ANNA
                  No.

   Nearby, the Duke flutters about in fright.

                            DUKE
                  Look! It's snowing! It's snowing!
                  The Queen has cursed this land! She
                  must be stopped!
                      (to his thugs)
                  You have to go after her.

   Anna rushes up to the Duke.

                              ANNA
                  Wait, no!

   The Duke hides behind his thugs and points out at Anna.

                            DUKE
                  You! Is there sorcery in you, too?
                  Are you a monster, too?

                            ANNA
                  No. No. I'm completely ordinary.

                            HANS
                  That's right she is...
                      (realizing how that
                       sounds)
                  ...in the best way.

                            ANNA

                            DUKE
                  She nearly killed me.

                            HANS
                  You slipped on ice.

                            ANNA
                  It was an accident. She was scared.
                  She didn't mean it. She didn't mean
                  any of this.... Tonight was my
                  fault. I pushed her. So I'm the one
                  that needs to go after her.

                            DUKE
                  Yes. Fine. Do.

                            HANS
                  What?

                      (to the Royal Handler)
                  Bring me my horse, please.

                            HANS
                  Anna, no. It's too dangerous.

                            ANNA
                  Elsa's not dangerous. I'll bring
                  her back, and I'll make this right.

   The Royal Handler brings Anna her horse and a cloak.

                            HANS
                  I'm coming with you.

                             ANNA
                  No, I need you here to take care of
                  Arendelle.

   He sees the desperation in her eyes.

                            HANS
                  ...On my honor.

   She throws on the cloak and hops right onto the horse,
   coronation dress and all.

                            ANNA
                      (to the crowd)
                  I leave Prince Hans in charge!

                  Are you sure you can trust her? I
                  don't want you getting hurt.

                            ANNA
                  She's my sister; she would never
                  hurt me.

   She snaps the reins and rides out. Hans watches after her.

   The snow picks up and overtakes our view. We push through a
   blizzard...lose our way...then finds ourselves...


   EXT. HIGH UP IN THE MOUNTAINS -- NIGHT

   Well above the snow-line, a small figure climbs the highest
   peak. It's Elsa. Finally, she stops, looks around. Catches
   her breath and sings...

                                "Let It Go"

                            ELSA
                  THE SNOW GLOWS WHITE
                  ON THE MOUNTAIN TONIGHT,
                  NOT A FOOTPRINT TO BE SEEN.
                  A KINGDOM OF ISOLATION
                  AND IT LOOKS LIKE I'M THE QUEEN.

                  THE WIND IS HOWLING
                  LIKE THIS SWIRLING STORM INSIDE.
                  COULDN'T KEEP IT IN,
                  HEAVEN KNOWS I TRIED. . .

                  DON'T LET THEM IN,
                  DON'T LET THEM SEE,
                  BE THE GOOD GIRL YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO
                  BE.
                  CONCEAL,
                  DON'T FEEL,
                  DON'T LET THEM KNOW.
                  WELL, NOW THEY KNOW.

   Elsa takes off her glove and throws it into the air.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  LET IT GO. LET IT GO.
                  CAN'T HOLD IT BACK ANYMORE.

   Elsa creates a snowman, just like the one she made with Anna
   when they were children.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  LET IT GO. LET IT GO.
                  TURN AWAY AND SLAM THE DOOR.
                  I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO
                  SAY.
                  LET THE STORM RAGE ON.
                  THE COLD NEVER BOTHERED ME ANYWAY.

   Elsa lets her cape fly back into the wind.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  IT'S FUNNY HOW SOME DISTANCE
                  MAKES EVERYTHING SEEM SMALL.
                  AND THE FEARS THAT ONCE CONTROLLED ME
                  CAN'T GET TO ME AT ALL.
                  IT'S TIME TO SEE
                  WHAT I CAN DO,
                  TO TEST THE LIMITS AND BREAK THROUGH.
                  NO RIGHT, NO WRONG,
                  NO RULES FOR ME...I'M FREE!

   Elsa creates ice steps and climbs them.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  LET IT GO! LET IT GO!
                  I AM ONE WITH THE WIND AND SKY.
                  LET IT GO! LET IT GO!
                  YOU'LL NEVER SEE ME CRY.
                  HERE I STAND AND HERE I'LL STAY.

   Elsa slams her foot down and forms a giant snowflake.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  LET THE STORM RAGE ON....

   In a flurry of creative release, she raises the snowflake on
   ice beams, builds walls, archways, a glistening chandelier,
   and an intricate ceiling that leaves the sky visible.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  MY POWER FLURRIES THROUGH THE AIR
                  INTO THE GROUND.
                  MY SOUL IS SPIRALING IN FROZEN
                  FRACTALS ALL AROUND.
                  AND ONE THOUGHT CRYSTALLIZES LIKE
                  AN ICY BLAST-

   Standing firmly in her mighty ice palace, Elsa removes her
   crown and throws it.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  I'M NEVER GOING BACK,
                  (back to resolve)
                  THE PAST IS IN THE PAST!

   She takes down her hair and creates a new dress made of ice.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  LET IT GO! LET IT GO!
                  AND I'LL RISE LIKE THE BREAK OF DAWN.
                  LET IT GO! LET IT GO!

   The sun rises. Elsa struts onto out onto a balcony and into
   the light. She's free.
                                                                  38

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  THAT PERFECT GIRL IS GONE.
                  HERE I STAND IN THE LIGHT OF DAY.
                  LET THE STORM RAGE ON!!
                  THE COLD NEVER BOTHERED ME ANYWAY.

   She turns and slams her ice palace door on us.

                                                           CUT TO:


   EXT. THE FJORD FOREST -- DAY

   Anna rides her horse through two feet of snow. She shivers.

                  Elsa! Elsa! It's me, Anna...your
                  sister who didn't mean to make you
                  freeze the summer. I'm sorry. It's
                  all my f-f-f-f-f-f-fault.

                                                       DISSOLVE TO:

   LATER: Anna and the horse struggle through a wooded area.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                      (hearing a wolf howl)
                  Of course, none of this would have
                  happened if she'd just told me her
                  secret...ha...she's a stinker.

   A branch of a nearby tree snaps and startles the horse. Anna
   goes flying off, lands face down in the snow. She sits up.
   Spits out snow. Sees the horse running away.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Oh no. No. No. No. Come back. No.
                  No. No. No.... Oooo-kay.

   He doesn't come back. Anna grabs onto a branch of a leaning
   conifer, tries to pull herself to her feet, but the tree
   snaps upright and releases all its snow onto her. GROAN.

                                                       DISSOLVE TO:


   EXT. MOUNTAIN -- NIGHT

   The Northern Lights shine as Anna struggles, out of breath,
   reaching the top of a hill.

                            ANNA
                  Snow, it had to be snow, she
                  couldn't have had tr-tr-tropical
                  magic that covered the f-f-fjords
                  in white sand and warm --

   She sees smoke rising up in the distance.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Fire! WHOA!

   Anna goes tumbling down the hill. She lands with a crash in
   an icy stream at the bottom.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                      (from inside the snowball)
                  Cold, cold, cold, cold, cold...


   EXT. A SMALL BUILDING AND STABLE -- NIGHT

   Anna shuffles up to the building, her dress frozen stiff. She
   shakes the snow off a sign and reads:

                            ANNA
                  Wandering Oaken's Trading Post.

   Snow drops off a smaller sign. She reads it, happily.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Ooh! And Sauna...


   INT. WANDERING OAKEN'S TRADING POST & SAUNA -- NIGHT

   Anna steps cautiously through the door--which hits her frozen
   butt and knocks her into the center of the shop. She looks
   around, sees only summer supplies.

                             OAKEN (O.S.)
                  Hoo hoo.

   Anna turns to see a bright-faced fellow sitting low behind
   the counter, fingers tapping tip to tip.

                            OAKEN (CONT'D)
                  Big summer blow out. Half off
                  swimming suits, clogs, and a sun

                      (slight disappointment)
                  That would be in our winter
                  department.

   The winter department contains one outfit, a pick ax, and a
   lonely pair of boots.

                            ANNA
                  Oh. Um, I was just wondering; has
                  another young woman, the Queen
                  perhaps, I don't know, passed
                  through here?

   She brings the clothes and boots to the counter.

                            OAKEN
                  Only one crazy enough to be out in
                  this storm is you, dear?

   The front door suddenly blows open and in walks a mass of a
   man covered in ice. Underneath is KRISTOFF.

                            OAKEN (CONT'D)
                  You and this fellow.... Hoo hoo.
                  Big summer blow out.

   Kristoff walks right up to Anna.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (in her face)
                  Carrots.

                            ANNA
                  Huh?

                            KRISTOFF
                  Behind you.

                            ANNA
                  Oh, right. Excuse me.

   Anna moves out of Kristoff's way. He grabs a bunch of
   carrots, tosses them on the counter, then moves through the
   place, gathering other supplies.

                            OAKEN
                      (to Kristoff)
                  A real howler in July, yah? Where

   Kristoff brings his supplies to the counter. Oaken counts on
   his fingertips.

                            OAKEN
                  That'll be forty.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Forty? No, ten.

                      (sweet as pie)
                  Oh dear, that's no good. See these
                  are from our winter stock, where
                  supply and demand have a big
                  problem.

                            KRISTOFF
                  You want to talk about a supply and
                  demand problem? I sell ice for a
                  living.

   Kristoff motions out the window, where we see the blocks of
   ice on his sled, covered in snow.

                            ANNA
                  Ooh, that's a rough business to be
                  in right now. I mean, that is
                  really...
                      (he shoots her a look)
                  Ahem. That's unfortunate.

                            OAKEN
                  Still forty. But I will throw in a
                  visit to Oaken's sauna. Hoo hoo!
                  Hi, family.

   Kristoff and Anna turn to see a naked family waving through
   the window of the steaming sauna.

                             NAKED FAMILY
                  Hoo hoo!

                            KRISTOFF
                  ...Ten's all I got. Help me out.

                            OAKEN
                      (isolating the carrots)
                  Ten will get you this and no more.

   Kristoff seethes. Stalemate.
                                                               42

                            ANNA
                  Okay, just tell me one thing; what
                  was happening on the North
                  Mountain? Did it seem magical?

   Kristoff pulls down his scarf and gives Anna a firm answer.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Yes! Now, back up while I deal with
                  this crook here.

   Oaken stands up, revealing his seven-foot stature.

                            OAKEN
                  What did you call me?


   EXT. WANDERING OAKEN'S TRADING POST AND SAUNA -- NIGHT

   Oaken stomps out the door, carrying Kristoff with one arm.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Okay. Okay, I'm- Ow! Whoa!

   Oaken throws Kristoff, who face-plants in the snow.

                             OAKEN
                  Bye bye.

   Oaken slams the door. Kristoff sits up. His reindeer, Sven,
   canters over, snorts, and nudges him, expectantly.

                            KRISTOFF
                  No Sven, I didn't get your carrots.

   Sven huffs in his face. Kristoff turns away and sees
   something. He points to a dilapidated barn.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  But I did find us a place to sleep.
                  And it's free.


   INT. WANDERING OAKEN'S TRADING POST AND SAUNA -- NIGHT

   Anna stands watching Oaken and all his great height as he
   squeezes behind the counter and sits down low again.

                            OAKEN
                      (teddy bear)
                  I'm sorry about this violence. I
                  will add a quart of lutefisk, so
                  we'll have good feelings. Just the
                  outfit and boots, yah?
                                                                 43

   Anna looks between Kristoff's supplies and the door.

                                                           CUT TO:


   INT. OAKEN'S STABLES - NIGHT

   Kristoff, now unfrozen, relaxes on a bed of hay, playing his
   lute and singing to (and for) Sven.

                    "Reindeer(s) are Better than People"

                            KRISTOFF
                  REINDEERS ARE BETTER THAN PEOPLE.
                  SVEN, DON'T YOU THINK THAT'S TRUE?

                             KRISTOFF (AS SVEN) (CONT'D)
                      (throwing his voice)
                  YEAH, PEOPLE WILL BEAT YOU & CURSE
                  YOU & CHEAT YOU.
                  EVERY ONE OF EM'S BAD, EXCEPT YOU.
                      (speaking)
                  Oh, thanks, Buddy.
                      (singing, as Kristoff)
                  BUT PEOPLE SMELL BETTER THAN
                  REINDEERS.
                  SVEN, DON'T YOU THINK I'M RIGHT?

                      (As Sven)
                  THAT'S ONCE AGAIN TRUE,
                  FOR ALL EXCEPT YOU.
                      (As Kristoff)
                  YOU GOT ME. LET'S CALL IT A NIGHT.
                      (As Sven)
                  GOOD NIGHT.
                      (As Kristoff)
                  DON'T LET THE FROSTBITE BITE.

   The door opens. Anna enters.

                               ANNA
                  Nice duet.

   Kristoff sits up with a start...sees who it is.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Oh, it's just you. What do you
                  want?

                            ANNA
                  I want you to take me up the North
                  Mountain.
                                                                   44

                            KRISTOFF
                  I don't take people places.

   He lays back down, closes his eyes.

                            ANNA
                  Let me rephrase that...

   A sack of supplies lands in Kristoff's lap.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Umph.

   He sits up. Looks in the bag.

                            ANNA
                  Take me up the North Mountain....
                  Please.

   He eyes her. He clearly doesn't take orders.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Look, I know how to stop this
                  winter.

   He considers, lies back down, pulls his hat over his eyes.

                            KRISTOFF
                  We leave at dawn.... And you forgot
                  the carrots for Sven.

   A bag of carrots hits Kristoff in the face.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Ugh!

                            ANNA
                  Oops. Sorry. Sorry. I'm sorry. I
                  didn't--
                      (catching herself)
                  We leave now. Right now.

   She steps back outside and waits, anxiously. Annoyed,
   Kristoff offers Sven a carrot. Sven has a bite. Then Kristoff
   has a bite, contemplating.

                                                        SLAM CUT TO:


   EXT. MOUNTAIN HIGH -- NIGHT

   Sven races, top speed, up a narrow cliff, pulling the sled,
   which skids precariously. Kristoff mans the reins. Anna sits
   beside him.
                                                            45
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            KRISTOFF
                      (trying to scare Anna)
                  Hang on! We like to go fast!

                            ANNA
                      (fearless)
                  I like fast!

   Anna leans back and puts her feet up on the dashboard.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Whoa, whoa! Get your feet down.

   He pushes her feet down.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  This is fresh lacquer. Seriously,
                  were you raised in a barn?

   Kristoff spits on the dash to clean it. The spit flies back
   and hits Anna in the face.

                            ANNA
                      (grossed out)
                  Ew. No, I was raised in a castle.

   She wipes off her face.

                            KRISTOFF
                  So tell me, what made the Queen go
                  all ice-crazy?

                            ANNA
                  ...Oh well, it was all my fault. I
                  got engaged but then she freaked
                  out because I'd only just met him,
                  you know, that day. And she said
                  she wouldn't bless the marriage--

                            KRISTOFF
                  Wait. You got engaged to someone
                  you just met?

                            ANNA
                  Yeah. Anyway, I got mad and so she
                  got mad and then she tried to walk
                  away, and I grabbed her glove--

                            KRISTOFF
                  Hang on. You mean to tell me you
                  got engaged to someone you just
                  met?!

FROZEN - J. Lee



                            ANNA
                  Yes. Pay attention. But the thing
                  is she wore the gloves all the
                  time, so I just thought, maybe she
                  has a thing about dirt.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Didn't your parents ever warn you
                  about strangers?

   Anna eyes Kristoff up and down, then slides away from him.

                            ANNA
                  Yes, they did.... But Hans is not a
                  stranger.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Oh yeah? What's his last name?

                            ANNA
                  ...Of-the-Southern-Isles?

                            KRISTOFF
                  What's his favorite food?

                            ANNA
                  ...Sandwiches.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Best friend's name?

                            ANNA
                  Probably John.

                               KRISTOFF
                  Eye color.

                               ANNA
                  Dreamy.

                  Foot size...?

                            ANNA
                  Foot size doesn't matter.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Have you had a meal with him yet?
                  What if you hate the way he eats?
                  What if you hate the way he picks
                  his nose?

                  Picks his nose?

                            KRISTOFF
                  And eats it.

                            ANNA
                  Excuse me, sir. He's a prince.

                            KRISTOFF
                  All men do it.

                             ANNA
                  Ew. Look it doesn't matter; it's
                  true love.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Doesn't sound like true love.

                            ANNA
                  Are you some sort of love expert?

                            KRISTOFF
                  No. But I have friends who are.

                            ANNA
                  You have friends who are love
                  experts.... I'm not buying it.

   Sven suddenly stops, ears perked in alarm.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (to Anna)
                  Stop talking.

                            ANNA
                  No, no, no. I'd like to meet these--

   Kristoff clamps his hand over Anna's mouth.

                            KRISTOFF
                  I mean it. SHHH.

   Kristoff stands, looks into the dark woods surrounding them.
   Sensing something behind them, he holds up his lantern. Its
   light reflects off...EYES. Several.

                            KRISTOFF(CONT'D)
                  Sven, go. Go!

   Sven takes off.

                            ANNA
                  What are they?

                            KRISTOFF
                  Wolves.

   Flashes of white dart through the woods. Kristoff hops into
   the back of the sled, grabs a torch. Lights it.

                            ANNA
                  Wolves. What do we do?

                            KRISTOFF
                  I've got this. You just...don't
                  fall off and don't get eaten.

                            ANNA
                  But I wanna help.

                             KRISTOFF
                  No.

                             ANNA
                  Why not?

                             KRISTOFF
                  Because I don't trust your
                  judgement.

                            ANNA
                  Excuse me?!

   A wolf jumps at them, but Kristoff kicks it off.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Who marries a man she just met?

   Anna grabs the lute, swings it right at Kristoff's head.

                            ANNA
                  It's true love!

   He screams, as she...BAM!...swings past Kristoff and knocks a
   wolf away.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (shocked)
                  Whoa.

   Just then Kristoff is yanked off the sled by another wolf.
   The torch goes flying. Anna catches it, shocked.

                            ANNA
                  Christopher!

   Kristoff grabs onto a loose rope hanging from the back of the
   sled and holds on for dear life as he's dragged behind.

                            KRISTOFF
                  It's Kristoff!

                  AH!

   Anna thinks fast, uses the torch to light a blanket on fire.

                            ANNA
                  Duck!

   Anna throws the flaming blanket right at him. He ducks. The
   blanket hits the wolves. They tumble off Kristoff.

                            KRISTOFF
                  You almost set me on fire!

   Anna reaches out a hand, pulls Kristoff back onto the sled.

                            ANNA
                  But I didn't.

   Sven cries out. There is a massive gorge ahead.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Get ready to jump, Sven!

                            KRISTOFF
                  You don't tell him what to do!

   Kristoff shoves a satchel into her arms then scoops her up.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  I do!

   Kristoff tosses Anna onto Sven, then unhooks Sven's harness
   from the sled.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Jump, Sven!

   Sven jumps the gorge with Anna on his back.

   Kristoff goes flying off behind them, still on the sled.

   Anna and Sven land safely on the other side of the gorge.

   Kristoff's sled loses momentum. It's not going to make it. He
   leaps off. He flaps his arms, claws at the air.

   He slams into the snowy edge of the cliff. Hanging by his
   hands, he looks down to see his sled hit the ground far below
   and burst into flames.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                      (shocked sadness)
                  ...But I just paid it off.

   Suddenly, he starts to slip. He claws at the loose snow, but
   it's clearly hopeless. He's going down.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Uh-oh. No, no, no.

   To make matters worse, an AXE comes flying right at his face.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  AH! NO, NO, NO!

   The axe slams into the snow, inches from his nose.

                             ANNA (O.S.)
                  Grab on!

   Kristoff grabs on.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Pull, Sven! Pull!

   REVEAL: The axe is tied to a rope, then wrapped around Sven.
   Anna helps Sven pull Kristoff to safety.

   Kristoff rolls onto his back, exhausted. Anna peeks down at
   the burning sled.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Whoa.... I'll replace your sled and
                  everything in it.

   Kristoff groans.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  And I understand if you don't want
                  to help me anymore.

   Anna walks off, sadly. Sven comes over and nuzzles Kristoff.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Of course I don't want to help her
                  anymore. In fact, this whole thing
                  has ruined me for helping anyone
                  ever again.

                            KRISTOFF (AS SVEN) (CONT'D)
                  But she'll die on her own.

                            KRISTOFF (AS SELF) (CONT'D)
                  I can live with that.
                                                                51

   Through their conversation, they watch Anna go the wrong
   way...turn, go the other wrong way, turn, trip...

                            KRISTOFF (AS SVEN) (CONT'D)
                  But you won't get your new sled if
                  she's dead.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                      (knowing he's got a point)
                  ...You know sometimes I really
                  don't like you.

   Sven licks Kristoff happily.

                            KRISTOFF (AS SELF) (CONT'D)
                      (to Anna)
                  Hold up. We're coming?!

                            ANNA
                      (excited)
                  You are?!
                      (catching herself)
                  I mean, sure. I'll let you tag
                  along.

   Kristoff, Sven and Anna walk on a narrow rim of a mountain.

   EXT. MOUNTAIN FOREST CLEARING -- DAY

   As they step out of the thick trees, Anna catches sight of
   something far below.

                               ANNA
                  Arendelle.

                            KRISTOFF
                  It's completely frozen.

                            ANNA
                  ...But it'll be fine. Elsa will
                  thaw it.

                               KRISTOFF
                  Will she?

                  ...Yeah. Now come on. This way to
                  the North Mountain?

   She points straight ahead.

                            KRISTOFF
                  More like this way.

   He points her finger up towards a perilously mighty mountain.

   INT. FROZEN WILLOW TREES -- DAY

   Anna, Kristoff, and Sven walk beneath frozen willows. The
   hanging branches glisten like Christmas lights. Sven knocks
   them with his antlers. They tinkle like chimes.

                             ANNA
                  I never knew winter could be so
                  beautiful.

   Suddenly, a voice comes in from nowhere. We'll call that
   voice OLAF.

                            OLAF (O.S.)
                  YEAH...It really is beautiful,
                  isn't it? But it's so white. You
                  know, how about a little color?
                  Must we bleach the joy out of it
                  all? I'm thinking like maybe some
                  crimson, chartreuse...

   While this is going on, Anna and Kristoff look around for the
   source of the rambling. They look at Sven - could he actually
   be talking? Sven looks back at them, his antlers tangled in
   branches, just as baffled as they are.

   In the meantime, a nose-less snowman, Olaf, wanders up behind
   them.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  How `bout yellow--no, not yellow.
                  Yellow and snow? Brrrr...no go.

   He stops between Kristoff and Anna. They look down at him.
   How did he get there? He suddenly looks up at Anna.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Am I right?
                                                               53

   Anna SCREAMS! Reflexes take over and she kicks Olaf's head,
   sending it flying off his body and into Kristoff's arms.

                              OLAF (CONT'D)
                        (cheery, to Kristoff)
                  Hi!

                            KRISTOFF
                  You're creepy.

   Kristoff tosses the head back to Anna and they commence a
   game of hot potato.

                            ANNA
                  I don't want it!

                            KRISTOFF
                  Backatchya!

                            OLAF
                  Please don't drop me.

                              ANNA
                  Don't!

                            KRISTOFF
                  Come on, it's just a head.

                              ANNA
                  No!

   Olaf's body runs at Anna, arms waving.

                            OLAF (O.S.)
                  All right, we got off to a bad
                  start.

                            ANNA
                  Ew, ew, the body!

   Anna slams Olaf's head back on the body, upside down. Olaf
   smiles happily, then looks confused.

                            OLAF
                  Wait, what am I looking at right
                  now? Why are you hanging off the
                  earth like a bat?

                            ANNA
                      (sympathetic)
                  ...Okay. Wait one second.

   Anna kneels in front of Olaf and rights his head.
                                                               54

                            OLAF
                  Oooh! Thank you!

                            ANNA
                  You're welcome.

                            OLAF
                  Now I'm perfect.

   She looks over his innocent face, gets an idea.

                            ANNA
                  Well, almost.

   She digs into Kristoff's satchel, holds up a carrot just as
   Olaf turns toward her. The carrot accidentally slams all the
   way through his head.

                            OLAF
                  Woo! Head rush!

                            ANNA
                  Oh! Too hard. I'm sorry! I-I, I was
                  just.... Are you okay?

   Olaf sees a tiny piece of carrot sticking out between his
   eyes. He lights up.

                            OLAF
                  Are you kidding me? I am wonderful!
                  I've always wanted a nose.
                      (going cross-eyed to look
                       at his tiny nose)
                  So cute. It's like a little baby
                  unicorn.

   Anna reaches behind Olaf to the bulk of the carrot sticking
   out the back of his head, and pushes it forward.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  What? Hey! Whoa.
                      (seeing his now big nose)
                  Oh, I love it even more! Hah....
                  All right, let's start this thing
                  over. Hi everyone. I'm Olaf. And I
                  like warm hugs.

   Olaf opens his arms wide to Anna. That triggers a memory. It
   takes her a moment to place it, but then she does.

                            ANNA
                  Olaf?...That's right, Olaf.

                            OLAF
                  ...And you are?

                            ANNA
                  Oh, um...I'm Anna.

                            OLAF
                  And who's the funky-looking donkey
                  over there?

                            ANNA
                  That's Sven.

                            OLAF
                  Uh-huh. And who's the reindeer?

                               ANNA
                  ...Sven.

   Olaf looks from Kristoff to Sven, confused.

                            OLAF
                  Oh. They're--oh, okay....
                      (accepting it)
                  Makes things easier for me.

   Sven tries to bite Olaf's nose.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Ha. Aw, look at him tryin' to kiss
                  my nose.
                      (gushes)
                  I like you, too!

                            ANNA
                  Olaf, did Elsa build you?

                               OLAF
                  Yeah. Why?

   Curious, Kristoff takes one of Olaf's twig arms off, studies
   it. It seems to be moving in sync with his other arm.

                            ANNA
                  Do you know where she is?

                            KRISTOFF
                      (studying the arm)
                  Fascinating...

                  Do you think you could show us the
                  way?

                               OLAF
                  Yeah. Why?

                            KRISTOFF
                      (bending the arm)
                  How does this work?

   Olaf's dismembered arm slaps Kristoff across the face.

                             OLAF
                  Stop it, Sven. Trying to focus

                      (to Anna)
                  Yeah, why?

                            KRISTOFF
                  I'll tell you why. We need Elsa to

                      (shocked)
                  Summer?
                      (sinking into wistfulness)
                  Oh, I don't know why but I've
                  always loved the idea of summer,
                  and sun, and all things hot.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Really? I'm guessing you don't have
                  much experience with heat.

                            OLAF
                  Nope. But sometimes I like to close
                  my eyes and imagine what it'd be
                  like when summer does come.

                  A DRINK IN MY HAND / MY SNOW UP

                  GETTING GORGEOUSLY TANNED IN
                  SUMMER.

   -Olaf sails in a boat.

                  I'LL FINALLY SEE A SUMMER BREEZE /
                  BLOW AWAY A WINTER STORM /

   -Olaf floats in the water. All his pieces begin to separate.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  AND FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS TO SOLID
                  WATER / WHEN IT GETS WARM.

   -Olaf tumbles on a sandy beach with sand-snowmen.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE / WHAT MY

                  IMAGINE HOW MUCH COOLER I'LL BE IN
                  SUMMER . . !

   -Olaf and the seagull break out into a tap-dance.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  DA DA . . . DA DOO / AH BAH BAH BAH
                  BAH BAH BOO.

   -Olaf and another snowman drink hot chocolate in a hot tub.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  THE HOT AND THE COLD ARE BOTH SO
                  INTENSE / PUT `EM TOGETHER, IT JUST
                  MAKES SENSE!

   -Olaf tap dances with a gaggle of seagulls.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  RATDADAT DAD DADA DOO . . .

   -Olaf bounds down a grassy hill.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  WINTER'S A GOOD TIME TO STAY IN AND
                  CUDDLE / BUT PUT ME IN SUMMER AND
                  I'LL BE A...

   He stops at a puddle, looks down at it. Smiles. Hops over it.
                                                                   58

                           OLAF (CONT'D)
                  HAPPY SNOWMAN!

   -Olaf runs with a checkered blanket that he spreads out. He
   relaxes and stares at the blue sky.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  WHEN LIFE GETS ROUGH I LIKE TO HOLD
                  ON TO MY DREAM / OF RELAXING IN THE
                  SUMMER SUN JUST LETTING OFF STEAM!

   Sven, Anna, Kristoff and Olaf have a picnic.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  OH THE SKY WILL BE BLUE / AND YOU
                  GUYS'LL BE THERE TOO / WHEN I
                  FINALLY DO WHAT FROZEN THINGS DO IN
                  SUMMER!

                            KRISTOFF
                  I'm gonna tell him.

                            ANNA
                  Don't you dare.

                               OLAF
                  IN SUMMER!

   Olaf sings the final note. We swing around him and return to:

   REALITY. He then straightens up and smiles.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  So, come on! Elsa's this way. Let's
                  go bring back summer!

   Olaf grabs Anna's hand and pulls her along up the mountain.

                            ANNA
                      (laughing)
                  I'm coming!

   Sven hops along, happily following them. Kristoff watches all
   of them like they're nuts.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Somebody's got to tell him.

   EXT. ARENDELLE, VILLAGE -- DAY

   A layer of solid ice coats everything. People huddle around
   weak fires. Anxiety runs high amongst the villagers and
   guests. We pass two CITIZENS fighting over a woodpile.

                            CITIZEN ONE
                  No. No. You've got the bark facing
                  down. The bark needs to be face-up.

                            CITIZEN TWO
                  Bark down is drier.

                               CITIZEN ONE
                  Bark up.

                               CITIZEN TWO
                  Bark down.

                               CITIZEN ONE
                  Bark up.

   Like a light in the dark, Hans moves through the crowd.

                            HANS
                  Cloak. Does anyone need a cloak?

                            GERDA
                  Arendelle is indebted to you, Your
                  Highness.

                            HANS
                  The castle is open. There's soup
                  and hot glögg in the Great Hall.

   He hands the stack of cloaks to a guard.

                            HANS (CONT'D)
                  Here. Pass these out.

   Just then the Duke approaches Hans.

                            DUKE
                  Prince Hans, are we just expected
                  to sit here and freeze while you
                  give away all of Arendelle's
                  tradable goods?

                            HANS
                      (tall and confident)
                  Princess Anna has given her orders
                  and--
                                                               60
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            DUKE
                  And that's another thing; has it
                  dawned on you that your princess
                  may be conspiring with a wicked
                  sorceress to destroy us all?

   Hans's nice eyes turn to threatening slits.

                            HANS
                  Do not question the Princess. She
                  left me in charge, and I will not
                  hesitate to protect Arendelle from
                  treason.

                            DUKE
                      (flabbergasted, offended)
                  Treason?!

   Suddenly they hear the alarmed whinny of Anna's horse. It
   returns alone, bucking and kicking. Hans grabs its reins.

                            HANS
                  Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, boy. Easy. Easy.

                            CROWD
                      (various)
                  Princess Anna's horse. What
                  happened to her? Where is she?

   Hans steadies the horse, looks up at the mountain. He sees
   all the panicked faces of the kingdom looking to him.

                            HANS
                  ...Princess Anna is in trouble.
                      (calling out)
                  I need volunteers to go with me to
                  find her!

   Volunteers, some from Arendelle, some from other lands, rush
   up to offer their services.

                            DUKE
                  I volunteer two men, my Lord!
                      (quietly to his thugs)
                  Be prepared for anything, and
                  should you encounter the Queen, you
                  are to put an end to this winter.
                  Do you understand?

   His two thugs sneer.

   EXT. THE NORTH MOUNTAIN -- DAY

   Anna, Kristoff, Sven, and Olaf move through hostile terrain.
   Wind-swept icicles face horizontal.

                            KRISTOFF
                  So how exactly are you planning to
                  stop this weather?

                            ANNA
                      (confident)
                  Oh, I am gonna talk to my sister.

                            KRISTOFF
                  That's your plan? My ice business
                  is riding on you talking to your
                  sister.

                              ANNA
                  Yup.

   Kristoff, so stunned by her casual plan, doesn't look where
   he's going and ends up with an ice-spike to the nose. He
   stops short, GULP, moves carefully around the spike.

                            KRISTOFF
                  So you're not at all afraid of her?

                            ANNA
                  Why would I be?

                            OLAF
                      (oblivious)
                  Yeah. I bet Elsa's the nicest,
                  gentlest, warmest person ever.

   Olaf backs right into an icicle. It runs through his torso.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Oh, look at that. I've been
                  impaled.

   He laughs it off.

   EXT. STEEP MOUNTAIN FACE -- DAY

   Anna and Kristoff hit what looks like a dead end. The face of
   the mountain goes straight up.

                              ANNA
                  What now?
                                                              62

   Kristoff looks around, sighs. Digs in his rucksack.

                            KRISTOFF
                  ...It's too steep. I've only got
                  one rope, and you don't know how to
                  climb mountains.

                              ANNA (O.S.)
                  Says who?

   Sven nudges Kristoff, who looks up to see Anna trying to
   climb the cliff's flat face.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (finding her ridiculous)
                  What are you doing?

                            ANNA
                      (straining)
                  ...I'm going to see my sister.

                            KRISTOFF
                  You're going to kill yourself.

   Kristoff watches her searching for footholds and hand-holds.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  I wouldn't put my foot there.

                            ANNA (O.S.)
                  You're distracting me.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Or there. How do you know Elsa even
                  wants to see you?

                            ANNA (O.S.)
                  I'm just blocking you out cause I
                  gotta concentrate here.

                            KRISTOFF
                  You know, most people who disappear
                  into the mountains want to be
                  alone.

                            ANNA (O.S.)
                  Nobody wants to be alone. Except
                  maybe you--

                            KRISTOFF
                  I'm not alone.... I have friends,
                  remember?

   Anna kicks a foot above her head to catch a foot hold.
                                                              63

                            ANNA
                  You mean the love experts?

                            KRISTOFF
                  Yes, the love experts!

   Anna realizes she's stuck.

                            ANNA
                  ...Please tell me I'm almost there.

   REVEAL: she's only about six feet up. Her muscles shake.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  ...Does the air seem a bit thin to
                  you up here?

   Kristoff smiles, getting a kick out of her.

                             KRISTOFF
                  Hang on.

   He pulls the rope from his bag. Just then Olaf steps out from
   behind a rock and waves to Kristoff.

                            OLAF
                  Hey, Sven? Not sure if this is
                  going to solve the problem, but I
                  found a staircase that leads
                  exactly where you want it to go.

                            ANNA
                  Ha ha. Thank goodness. Catch!

   Anna drops off the cliff. Kristoff catches her.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Thanks! That was like a crazy trust
                  exercise.

   She hops down, brushes off her dress, and bounds off.
   Kristoff watches after her, digging her fearless pluck.


   EXT. BASE OF THE ICE PALACE -- DAY

   Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf approach Elsa's elegant ice palace.

                             ANNA
                  Whoa.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (in awe)
                  Now that's ice. I might cry.
                                                              64
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            ANNA
                  Go ahead. I won't judge.

   Anna climbs the steps with Olaf. Sven tries to follow. His
   hooves slip out. He scrambles but can't get traction.
   Kristoff runs to his aide.

                            KRISTOFF
                  All right, take it easy. I gotcha.

   Kristoff settles Sven back down the stairs and pats him.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  You stay right here, buddy.

   Sven obediently plops his reindeer butt down and wags his
   tail. Kristoff climbs the stairs, admiring the ice details.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  ...Flawless.

   Anna arrives at the door. Hesitates.

                            OLAF
                  ...Knock....
                      (she doesn't)
                  Just knock....
                      (she doesn't. To Kristoff)
                  Why isn't she knocking...? Do you
                  think she knows how to knock?

   Anna finally KNOCKS. The sound echoes inside. The ice doors
   slide open.

                            ANNA
                  Ha. It opened. That's a first.

   Anna goes to step in. Kristoff follows. She gets a thought,
   stops him.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  You should probably wait out here.

                            KRISTOFF
                  What?

                            ANNA
                  Last time I introduced her to a
                  guy, she froze everything.

                            KRISTOFF
                  But, it's a palace made of ice. Ice
                  is my life.

                               OLAF
                  Bye, Sven.

   Olaf starts to head inside. Anna stops him.

                            ANNA
                  You too, Olaf.

                               OLAF
                  Me?

                            ANNA
                  Just give us a minute.

                               OLAF
                  Okay.

   As Anna walks inside. Olaf starts counting.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  One...two...

   Kristoff joins in.

                            OLAF AND KRISTOFF
                  Three...four...


   INT. ELSA'S PALACE -- DAY

   Anna walks into a great foyer. The place is beautiful, but
   also eerie.

                            ANNA
                  Elsa? It's me...Anna?!

   Anna slips. Steadies herself.

                               ELSA (O.S.)
                  Anna.

   Elsa steps out of the shadows onto a balcony. She sees Anna,
   looks to her longingly.

   Anna can't help but be struck by Elsa's beauty.

                            ANNA
                  Elsa, you look different.... It's a
                  good different.... And this place
                  is amazing.
                                                            66

                            ELSA
                      (cautious, polite)
                  Thank you, I never knew what I was
                  capable of.

   Anna starts to climb the stairs.

                            ANNA
                  ...I'm so sorry about what
                  happened. If I'd known--

   Elsa backs up, away from Anna.

                            ELSA
                      (on guard)
                  No, it's okay. You don't have to
                  apologize.... But you should
                  probably go, please.

                            ANNA
                  But I just got here.

                            ELSA
                  ...You belong in Arendelle.

                               ANNA
                  So do you.

   Anna takes another step up. Elsa backs up more.

                            ELSA
                  No, I belong here. Alone. Where I
                  can be who I am without hurting
                  anybody.

                            ANNA
                  ...Actually, about that--

                            OLAF (O.S.)
                  58...59...60.

                            ELSA
                  Wait. What is that?

   Olaf comes running in the front door. He waves.

                            OLAF
                  Hi, I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs.

                            ELSA
                      (shocked)
                  Olaf?

   Olaf stops beside Anna, looks up at Elsa, intimidated.
                                                                   67
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            OLAF
                      (bashful)
                  You built me. You remember that?

                            ELSA
                      (astonished)
                  And you're alive?

                            OLAF
                  Um...I think so?

   Anna kneels down beside Olaf.

                            ANNA
                  He's just like the one we built as
                  kids.... We were so close. We can
                  be like that again.

   Elsa smiles, but then a memory returns to her.

                                                       FLASH CUT TO:

   FLASHBACK: Young Anna is struck by Elsa's powers.

                            YOUNG ELSA
                  Anna!

   Young Anna falls unconscious. Young Elsa races to her.

                                                       FLASH CUT TO:

   THE PRESENT: Elsa's face sinks in pain.

                            ELSA
                  No, we can't.

   Elsa turns and heads up the second story steps.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  Goodbye, Anna.

                            ANNA
                  Elsa, wait--

                            ELSA
                      (calling back)
                  I'm just trying to protect you.

   Elsa continues to flee. Anna pursues.

                             ANNA
                  You don't have to protect me. I'm
                  not afraid. Please don't shut me
                  out again.

   Anna SINGS.

                      "First Time in Forever, Reprise"

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  PLEASE DON'T SLAM THE DOOR.
                  YOU DON'T HAVE TO KEEP YOUR
                  DISTANCE ANYMORE.

                  `CAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
                  FOREVER,
                  I FINALLY UNDERSTAND.
                  FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,
                  WE CAN FIX THIS HAND IN HAND.
                  WE CAN HEAD DOWN THIS MOUNTAIN
                  TOGETHER.
                  YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIVE IN FEAR.
                  `CAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
                  FOREVER,
                  I WILL BE RIGHT HERE.

   They arrive on the top floor, Elsa's main living space. Elsa
   turns back to Anna, grateful, but determined.

                            ELSA
                  Anna,
                  PLEASE GO BACK HOME.
                  YOUR LIFE AWAITS.
                  GO ENJOY THE SUN
                  AND OPEN UP THE GATES.

                            ANNA
                  Yeah, but--

                            ELSA
                  I know!
                  YOU MEAN WELL,
                  BUT LEAVE ME BE.
                  YES, I'M ALONE BUT I'M ALONE AND
                  FREE.

   Elsa opens up the balcony doors.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  JUST STAY AWAY AND YOU'LL BE SAFE
                  FROM ME.

                            ANNA
                  ACTUALLY, WE'RE NOT.

                            ELSA
                  WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE NOT?

                            ANNA
                  I GET THE FEELING YOU DON'T KNOW?

                            ELSA
                  WHAT DO I NOT KNOW?

                            ANNA
                  ARENDELLE'S IN DEEP DEEP DEEP DEEP
                  SNOW.

                            ELSA
                  What?

   Elsa looks past Anna's shoulder out white-peaked mountains.

                            ANNA
                  You kind of set off an eternal
                  winter...everywhere.

                            ELSA
                  Everywhere?

                            ANNA
                  It's okay, you can just unfreeze
                  it.

                            ELSA
                  No, I can't. I don't know how.

                            ANNA
                  Sure you can. I know you can.

   Snow starts to swirl around the room.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  CUZ FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,

                            ELSA
                      (panicking)
                  I'M SUCH A FOOL!
                  I CAN'T BE FREE!

                            ANNA
                  YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AFRAID.

                            ELSA
                  NO ESCAPE
                  FROM THE STORM INSIDE OF ME!

   The snow picks up. Anna tries to fight through it.

                            ANNA
                  WE CAN WORK THIS OUT TOGETHER.
                                                               70

                            ELSA
                  I CAN'T CONTROL THE CURSE!

                            ANNA
                  WE'LL REVERSE THE STORM YOU'VE
                  MADE.

                            ELSA
                  ANNA, PLEASE, YOU'LL ONLY MAKE IT
                  WORSE!

                            ANNA
                  DON'T PANIC.

                            ELSA
                  THERE'S SO MUCH FEAR!

                            ANNA
                  WE'LL MAKE THE SUN SHINE BRIGHT.

                            ELSA
                  YOU'RE NOT SAFE HERE!

                            ANNA
                  WE CAN FACE THIS THING TOGETHER...

   But as Anna sings, we lose sight of her in the thickening
   blizzard taking over the room.

                             ELSA
                  NO!

                            ANNA (O.S.)
                  WE CAN CHANGE THIS WINTER WEATHER,
                  AND EVERYTHING WILL BE...

   Anna's voice disappears in the storm as Elsa cries out.

                             ELSA
                  I CAN'T!

   Elsa's fear, so strong, sucks the blizzard back into her and
   then it bursts out, unwittingly, like a sharp snowflake.

   Anna is STRUCK right in the heart. She grasps her chest in
   pain and stumbles back. She falls to her knees.

   Elsa gasps when she sees Anna. Just then, Olaf and Kristoff
   rush into the room to Anna's side.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Anna. Are you okay?
                                                                   71
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            ANNA
                  I'm okay.... I'm fine.

   Anna gets to her feet, determined to hide the pain.

                            ELSA
                      (scared)
                  Who's this? Wait, it doesn't
                  matter. You have to go.

                             ANNA
                  No, I know we can figure this out
                  together--

                            ELSA
                      (desperate)
                  How? What power do you have to stop
                  this winter? To stop me?

   Anna doesn't have the answer. Kristoff sees spiky ice shadows
   creeping down the walls. Puts a protective arm around Anna.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Anna, I think we should go.

                            ANNA
                      (close to tears)
                  No. I'm not leaving without you,
                  Elsa.

                            ELSA
                      (heartbroken but decisive)
                  Yes, you are.

   Elsa waves her arms and builds a giant, menacing snowman.
   We'll call him MARSHMALLOW.

                                                        SLAM CUT TO:


   EXT. ICE PALACE -- DAY

   Marshmallow holds Anna and Kristoff by the scruff of their
   necks in one hand and Olaf in the other.

                            ANNA
                  Stop. Put us down!

                            OLAF
                      (to Marshmallow)
                  You are a lot stronger than I think
                  you realize.

   Marshmallow tosses Kristoff and Anna down the steps.
                                                                    72
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            MARSHMALLOW
                      (like a bouncer)
                  Go away!

   Anna and Kistoff slide past Sven, who's got his tongue stuck
   to the ice railing.

                              OLAF (O.S.)
                  Heads up!

   Olaf's head smashes into a snowbank nearby.

                              ANNA
                  Olaf!

                            OLAF
                  Watch out for my butt!

   Anna and Kristoff duck as the rest of Olaf slams into the
   snowbank.

   Marshmallow turns to go back into the castle.

   Incensed, Anna tries to march back up the stairs.

                            ANNA
                  It is not nice to throw people!

   Kristoff grabs her, pulls her back.

              KRISTOFF                                   ANNA
   All right feisty pants. Calm             Let me at him. I want to get
   down. Woaw. Just let the snow            him. I.... Okay. I'm Calm.
   man be.

   Anna backs down...for a moment. Then she grabs a snowball and
   throws it at Marshmallow.

   The tiny little ball hits Marshmallow's back, not making even
   the slightest dent. But it's enough to infuriate him. He
   ROARS. Spikes shoot out of his joints.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Uh-oh. Now you made him mad!

                            OLAF
                  ...I'll distract him. You guys go.

   Kristoff pushes Anna along. Sven runs off in the opposite
   direction. Olaf's belly and butt fall and follow Sven.

   Marshmallow goes charging after Anna and Kristoff as Olaf's
   head falls and lands face down in snow.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                      (muffled)
                  This just got a whole lot harder.

   Anna and Kristoff leap and slide down a steep slope. They
   tumble to a stop at the bottom just as Marshmallow lands hard
   right behind them.

   They're off again...through a maze of conifers that sag under
   the weight of the snow, Marshmallow hot on their trail.

                               KRISTOFF
                  This way!

   Anna grabs a branch of a sagging trees and releases all of
   the snow. The tree snaps upright, knocking Marshmallow back.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                      (impressed)
                  Ho-ho-ho!

                               ANNA
                  I got him!

   Anna and Kristoff burst out of the conifer forest and almost
   run right off a cliff. They stop short, toes on the edge.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Whoa, stop!

                            ANNA
                  It's a hundred foot drop.

                            KRISTOFF
                  It's two hundred.

   Kristoff ties the rope around Anna and pulls tight.

                               ANNA
                  Ow.

   He drops to his knees and starts digging a u-shape in the
   snow with a pick axe.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  What's that for?

                            KRISTOFF
                  I'm digging a snow anchor.

                            ANNA
                      (not trusting)
                  Okay. What if we fall?

                            KRISTOFF
                  There's twenty feet of fresh powder
                  down there; it'll be like landing
                  on a pillow.... Hopefully.

   They hear an angry ROAR coming closer.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Okay, Anna. On three.

   Anna preps for the jump like a boxer getting ready to fight.

                            ANNA
                  Okay. You tell me when...

                               KRISTOFF
                  One...

                            ANNA
                  ...I'm ready to go....

                               KRISTOFF
                  Two...

                            ANNA
                      (pumped up)
                  ...I was BORN ready! Yes!

                               KRISTOFF
                  Calm down.

   A huge tree flies through the air toward them.

                               ANNA (O.S.)
                  TREE!

   Anna jumps and pulls Kristoff over the edge with her. They
   hang upside down over the cliff by the rope. The rope catches
   their fall.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Whoa! That happened.

   Back up top, Olaf emerges from the woods. He's a complete
   mess, all his body parts are in the wrong places. He huffs
   and puffs, struggling to run.

                            OLAF
                  Ah. Ah. Man, am I out of shape.
                                                               75

   He stops. Puts his body back together in the right order.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  There we go. Hey, Anna! Sven!
                  Where'd ya guys go? We totally lost
                  Marshmallow back there!

   Marshmallow steps up behind Olaf. Olaf turns to face him.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                      (happily)
                  Hey. We were just talking about
                  you. All good things, all good
                  things.

   Marshmallow roars and approaches Kristoff's snow anchor.

                              OLAF (CONT'D)
                  NO!

   Olaf jumps onto Marshmallow's leg trying to stop him, but not
   making much of a difference.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  This is not making much of a
                  difference!

   Marshmallow flicks Olaf off his leg and right over the cliff.

                              OLAF (CONT'D)
                  WHOA!

   Olaf passes Anna and Kristoff.

                              ANNA
                  Olaf!

                            OLAF
                  Hang in there, guys!

   Marshmallow starts yanking Kristoff and Anna's rope up.

                            ANNA
                  Wait, what?

   Kristoff's head hits the cliff.

                              KRISTOFF
                  Aargghh!

   Kristoff passes out and hangs like a rag doll.

                              ANNA
                  Kristoff!
                                                               76

   Marshmallow pulls them up. He roars and breathes snow all
   over them.

                            MARSHMALLOW
                  Don't come back!

                            ANNA
                      (grossed out by his snow
                       breath)
                  Ugh. We won't.

   Anna whips out a knife and cuts the rope. Kristoff comes to
   just as they fall. They both SCREAM!

   SLAM!

   REVEAL: Anna opens her eyes to find herself buried up to her
   shoulders in the soft thick snow. She laughs.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  Hey, you were right. Just like a
                  pillow.

   She looks up to see Olaf's upper half hanging onto Kristoff's
   boots, which are sticking out of the snow.

                            OLAF
                      (shaking the boots)
                  I can't feel my legs! I can't feel
                  my legs!

   Suddenly, Kristoff's head pops up. He spits out snow.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Those are my legs.

   Olaf's bottom goes running by.

                            OLAF
                      (to Kristoff)
                  Ooh. Hey, do me a favor, grab my
                  butt.

   Kristoff grabs Olaf's head and puts it on his body.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Oh, that feels better.

   Sven walks up and sniffs Olaf's nose.

                               OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Hey, Sven!

   Olaf turns to Anna and Kristoff just as Sven goes to bite off
   his nose -- and misses.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  He found us.
                      (to Sven, funny voice)
                  Who's my cute little reindeer?

                            KRISTOFF
                  Don't talk to him like that.

   Kristoff goes over to help Anna, who is stuck in the snow.

                               KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Here.

   He lifts her out easily.

                            ANNA
                      (impressed)
                  Whoa!

                               KRISTOFF
                  You okay?

                               ANNA
                  Thank you.

   They meet eyes. Wait. Is that chemistry?

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  ...Um.... How's your head?

   She touches the spot where he banged his head.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (in pain)
                  Ah! Ooh!

   He catches himself. Waves off the pain with a giggle.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  I mean, It's fine. Ah...I'm good.
                  Ha. I've got a thick skull.

                            OLAF
                  I don't have a skull.... Or bones.

                               KRISTOFF
                  ...So....

   The awkwardness is killing him.

                              KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                      (shy)
                  Now what?

                             ANNA
                      (shy)
                  Now what?
                      (then...panicking)
                  Now what?! Oh! What am I gonna do?
                  She threw me out. I can't go back
                  to Arendelle with the weather like
                  this. And then there's your ice
                  business--

                            KRISTOFF
                  Hey, hey, don't worry about my ice
                  business...
                      (noticing something)
                  Worry about your hair?!

   She thinks he means it looks bad. She smooths it down.

                            ANNA
                  What? I just fell off a cliff. You
                  should see your hair.

                            KRISTOFF
                  No, yours is turning white.

   She grabs her braid as a tendril turns white.

                            ANNA
                  White? It's what?

                            KRISTOFF
                  It's because she struck you; isn't
                  it?

                            ANNA
                  Does it look bad?

                            KRISTOFF
                      (thinking)
                  ...No.

   Olaf's head pops up. He's holding his head up off his body to
   join the conversation.

                            OLAF
                  You hesitated.

                            KRISTOFF
                  No, I didn't. Anna, you need help.
                  Now, come on.
                                                                  79

   He heads towards the sunset. Sven and Olaf follow.

                            OLAF
                  Okay! Where are we going?

                            KRISTOFF
                  To see my friends.

                  The love experts?

                  Yes. And don't worry; they'll be
                  able to fix this.

                            ANNA
                  How do you know?

   He looks her over, remembering the moment he saw the trolls
   heal her as a child.

                            KRISTOFF
                  ...Because I've seen them do it
                  before.

   As they round the bend, the sun sets and Olaf turns to Sven.

                            OLAF
                  I like to consider myself a love

   Elsa paces, distraught. She talks to herself.

   She hears ice cracking. Stops. Looks around. She's left a
   sharp wake of ice spikes behind her on the floor. They grow
   up the wall, taking over the castle.

                                                       DISSOLVE TO:

   EXT. BLACK MOUNTAINS -- NIGHT

   The Northern Lights are bright. Olaf stares at them in awe as
   he rides on Sven's back.

                            OLAF
                  Look, Sven. The sky's awake.

   Behind Olaf and Sven, Anna walks with Kristoff. She shivers.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Are you cold?

                            ANNA
                  ...A little.

   He reaches like he might put an arm around her, but decides
   against it. He looks around as if he doesn't know what to do,
   then gets a thought.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Wait. Come here.

   He takes her hand and pulls her around a bend into a rock-
   lined pass.

   Steam vents, powered by the volcanic activity, dot the path.
   He holds her hands over one of them.

                            ANNA
                  Oooh.... That's nice.

   They continue on the path, walking from vent to vent.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (taking a deep breath)
                  So, about my friends...well, I say
                  friends, they're more like
                  family.... Anyway, when I was a

                  Yeah. I don't want to scare you,
                  they can be a little bit
                  inappropriate...and loud...very
                  loud...they're also stubborn at
                  times, and a little overbearing.
                  And heavy. Really, really heavy.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  But they're fine.. You'll get it.
                  They mean well.

   Anna touches Kristoff's arm, reassuringly.

                            ANNA
                  Kristoff, they sound wonderful.

   Kristoff smiles, appreciating her sincerity.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Okay then....

   Mustering the courage, Kristoff steps forward and with a wave
   of the arms announces--

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Meet my family.

   REVEAL: he's surrounded by rocks.

                             KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                      (to the rocks)
                  Hey, guys!

   As Kristoff and Sven move through the rocks, waving and
   greeting, Olaf and Anna stand frozen, dumbfounded.

                            ANNA
                      (to herself)
                  ...They're rocks.

                            OLAF
                      (realizing)
                  He's crazy.
                      (covertly, to Anna)
                  I'll distract them while you run.
                      (Loud and slow to a rock)
                  Hi, Sven's family! It's nice to
                  meet you!
                      (quietly to Anna)
                  Anna, because I love you, I insist
                  you run.
                      (to the rock)
                  I understand you're love experts!
                      (to Anna)
                  Why aren't you running?

   Anna snaps out of her shock and starts backing away.

                            ANNA
                  Okay. Um...I'm gonna go--

   Just then the rocks around her start rolling.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                      (panicking)
                  Kristoff!

   Olaf lights up and chases the rocks, who surround Kristoff
   and unfold as trolls.

                            BULDA
                  KRISTOFF'S HOME!

                            TROLLS (VARIOUS)
                  Kristoff! Kristoff's home! It's
                  been too long! Kristoff's home!

   Olaf jumps around all excitedly.

                            OLAF
                      (excitedly)
                  Kristoff's home.

   He then stops, confused, and looks to one of the trolls.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Wait? Kristoff?

   Anna watches, shocked and confused.

   The trolls all want Kristoff's attention. One troll yanks him
   down with a boulder's strength.

                            TROLL ONE
                  Oh, lemme look at you!

   Another troll tries to pull off his clothes.

                            TROLL TWO
                  Oh, take off your clothes,
                  Kristoff; I wash them.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (holding up his pants)
                  Ah! No. I'm gonna keep my clothes
                  on, thank you.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Great to see you all. Where's
                  grandpa?

                            MUSHROOM KID TROLL
                  He's napping. But look, I grew a
                  mushroom.

                            TROLL SCOUT KID
                  And I earned my fire crystal.

                            KIDNEY STONE TROLL
                  I passed a kidney stone.

                            PICK ME UP TROLL
                  Pick me up.

   The kid troll jumps up on Kristoff's arm. Kristoff sinks
   under the weight of him.

   Anna still stares, confused, then realizes...

                            ANNA
                  Trolls? They're trolls.

   Silence. All troll eyes turn to Anna. Blink. Blink.

                            BULDA
                  ...He's brought a girl!

                            TROLLS (TOGETHER)
                  He's brought a girl!

   Suddenly Anna is surrounded by trolls. They body-surf/roll
   Anna over to Kristoff. She falls into his arms.

                            ANNA
                  What's going on?

                            KRISTOFF
                  I've learned to just roll with it.

   Bulda climbs on top of her husband, Cliff, to get a good look
   at Anna. She studies her like she's a piece of cattle.

                            BULDA
                  Let me see. Bright eyes. Working
                  nose. Strong teeth. Yes, yes, yes.
                  She'll do nicely for our Kristoff.

                            ANNA
                  Wait. Oh. Um. No.

                            KRISTOFF
                  You've got the wrong idea. That's
                  not why I brought her here.

                            ANNA
                  Right. We're not. I'm not--

   Anna laughs, uncomfortable, not knowing what to say.

                  What's the issue, dear? Why are you
                  holding back from such a man?

                      (to the male trolls)
                  Enough! She's engaged to someone

   Kristoff looks over at Anna. She actually looks shockingly
   beautiful dressed in moss, lit by shimmering crystals.

                            ALL TROLLS
                  EVERYONE'S A BIT OF A FIXER UPPER,

   By this time Kristoff and Anna are being ushered into a pit
   by the sheer force of numbers.

                  TRUE
                  TRUE
                  LOVE

   During this last bit Anna and Kristoff are looking at each
   other differently. Hmmm. Maybe those trolls are right?
   Sparks! Chemistry!

                            TROLL PRIEST
                  Do you, Anna, take Kristoff to be
                  your trollfully wedded--

                            ANNA
                  Wait, what?!

                            TROLL PRIEST

                            TROLLS
                  LOVE!

   Just then, Anna collapses. Kristoff catches her. She's
   shivering something fierce.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Anna?

   He pulls off her cape and hat.

                  She's as cold as ice.

   Just then Grand Pabbie pushes his way through the crowd.
   Trolls clear the way for Pabbie. He stops at the edge of the
   pit.

                            GRAND PABBIE

   Kristoff helps Anna over. Pabbie looks into her weak eyes.

                  Anna, your life is in danger. There
                  is ice in your heart, put there by

                  solid ice will you freeze, forever.

                            ANNA
                  What...? No.

                            KRISTOFF
                  So remove it, Grand Pabbie.

                            GRAND PABBIE
                  I can't. If it was her head, that
                  would be easy. But only an act of
                  true love can thaw a frozen heart.

                            ANNA
                  An act of true love?

                  A true love's kiss, perhaps?

   A bunch of trolls give each other kisses.

   Anna shivers again, collapsing into Kristoff's arms. More of
   her hair turns white.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Anna, we've got to get you back to

   Kristoff grabs Sven's antlers. Sven pulls them out.

   Kristoff helps Anna onto Sven and hops up behind her.

                  Come on, Olaf!

   Sven takes off. Olaf grabs Sven's tail, rides with them.

                            OLAF
                  I'm coming! Let's go kiss Hans! Who
                  is this Hans?!

                                                        CUT TO:


   EXT.    ELSA'S PALACE - DAWN

   Hans and the men tread cautiously towards the castle.

                            HANS
                  We are here to find Princess Anna.
                  Be on guard, but no harm is to come
                  to the Queen. Do you understand?

   The Duke's thugs exchange a look. Suddenly, a mass of snow
   rises from the ground behind Hans. It's Marshmallow, Elsa's
   snow guard.

                               MARSHMALLOW
                  Go away!

   He slams a fist inches from Hans. Hans deftly dodges out of
   the way. All of the guards take up arms against Marshmallow,
   who quickly knocks them over.

   Marshmallow throws down a guard and his horse, who topple
   over Hans. Marshmallow raises his foot to stomp on Hans, but
   Hans barrel-rolls himself to safety. He sees his sword,
   leaps, and grabs it.

   Just then, Elsa peeks out the front doors.

   The Duke's two thugs see her.

                               DUKE'S THUG
                  The Queen.

   The thugs charge up the stairs.

   INT. ELSA'S PALACE -- DAY

   They guards burst through the ice doors.

   Elsa flees to the top floor of her palace. The guards pursue.

   They trap her on the top floor, raise their crossbows.

                            ELSA
                      (scared)
                  No. Please.

   One of the thugs shoots an arrow right at Elsa. At the last
   moment she creates an ice wall. It stops the arrow, inches
   from her face.

   The thugs reposition to take another shot.

                               ELSA (CONT'D)
                  Stay away!

   Elsa shoots ice at the thugs. They duck out of the way and
   continue the attack.

                            THUG
                  Get her! Get her!

   Elsa fights for her life.

   BACK OUTSIDE: Hans is nearly crushed by Marshmallow. He rolls
   away. Jumps to his feet. And with agile might, he slices
   Marshmallow's leg off with his sword. Marshmallow stumbles
   back, off balance. And falls off over the cliff, but not
   before striking Hans. Hans goes over the edge.

   REVEAL: Hans clings to the ice steps. His men help him up and
   they rush into the ice palace.


   INT. ICE PALACE -- DAY

   Elsa is surrounded. It's do or die. In two swift moves, Elsa
   traps one thug in a cage of spikes that threaten his neck.

   The other she pushes back with a wall of ice....up against
   the balcony doors...which BURST and CRACK.

   OUT ONTO THE BALCONY.... The balcony doors shatter. The thug
   is pushed to the edge. He's inches away from falling to his
   death.

   BACK INSIDE: Hans and his men run in. See the destruction and
   the thugs near death.
                                                                   90

                            HANS
                  Queen Elsa! Don't be the monster
                  they fear you are.

   Elsa snaps out of her rage. She sees the men, frightened,
   moments from death. She stops. Elsa looks to Hans,
   overwhelmed, frightened.

   The wall retreats from the thug on the balcony. The ice
   spikes lower from the second thug's neck. He takes advantage
   and aims his crossbow at Elsa's back.

   Seeing it. Hans runs and pushes the crossbow up just as the
   arrow releases. The arrow hits the ice chandelier, hanging
   directly above Elsa.

   The chandelier comes CRASHING DOWN.

   Elsa dives out of the way but she falls in the blast.

   All we see is ice smashing like glass, and all we hear is the
   sound of it shattering as it rings out.

                                                       CUT TO BLACK.


   FADE IN ON:

   Elsa's face as her eyes flutter open.

   She sits up. She's surrounded by stone.


   INT. ARENDELLE, DUNGEON -- DAY

   Elsa looks to the nearby window. Tries to rush to it. She's
   pulled taut by giant shackles that fit like iron gloves.
   She's chained to the wall.

   Elsa strains to looks out a window...

   INSET WINDOW: Arendelle is outside, frozen solid and getting
   further buried under the ice and snow that is falling.

                            ELSA
                  No....What have I done?

   Hans enters. He hangs a torch by the door.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  Why did you bring me here?

                            HANS
                  I couldn't just let them kill you.
                                                              91

                            ELSA
                  But I'm a danger to Arendelle. Get
                  Anna.

                            HANS
                  Anna has not returned....

   Elsa looks to the storm with worry.

                            HANS (CONT'D)
                  If you would just stop the winter,
                  bring back summer...please.

   Elsa meets his eyes, desperate.

                            ELSA
                  Don't you see...I can't.

   Hans sees the sincerity in her eyes.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  You have to tell them to let me go.

   Hans walks to the door. He takes the torch.

                            HANS
                  I will do what I can.

   He opens the door and leaves.

   Elsa, distraught, hears cracking. She looks down as her
   shackles begin to freeze over. The storm outside picks up.

                                                        CUT TO:


   EXT. THE FJORDS -- DAY

   Sven charges down the mountain with Kristoff and Anna on his
   back. Olaf slides along beside them, penguin-style.

   Anna shivers in Kristoff's arms. She's weakening. Kristoff
   takes off his hat and puts it on her head.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Just hang in there.
                      (to Sven)
                  Come on, buddy, faster!

   They arrive at the walls of Arendelle. Olaf slides past them,
   out of control.

                            OLAF
                  I'll meet you guys at the castle!

                            OLAF
                  I will!

   He disappears into the village streets.

                            OLAF (O.S.) (CONT'D)
                  Hello!

                            GUARD
                  It's Princess Anna!

   Sven skids to a stop outside the gates. Kristoff slides off,
   holding Anna, and carries her to the gate.

                            KRISTOFF
                  I've got you.

   Anna looks up at him, gratefully.

                            ANNA
                  ...Are you g-gonna be okay?

                            KRISTOFF
                      (touched, reassuring)
                  Don't worry about me.

   Just then the castle gates open. Gerda, Kai, and a handmaid
   rush to help Anna.

                            GERDA
                  Anna! Oh, you had us worried sick.

                            KAI
                  My Lady. You are freezing.

                            GERDA
                  You poor girl, you're freezing.
                  Let's get you inside.

                  Get her warm and find Prince Hans,
                  immediately.

                            KAI
                  We will. Thank you.

   Anna is swept away from Kristoff and into the palace grounds.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Make sure she's safe!

   Kristoff is shut out as the castle gates close on him.

   Kristoff stands there with Sven for a beat, staring with
   worry at the closed gates.

   Finally, he sighs, turns and walks off. Sven reluctantly
   follows.

                                                        CUT TO:


   INT. LIBRARY -- DAY

   Hans stands with the dignitaries and guards.

                            HANS
                  I'm going back out to look for
                  Princess Anna.

                            FRENCH DIGNITARY
                  You cannot risk going out there
                  again.

                            HANS
                  If anything happens to her--

                            SPANISH DIGNITARY
                  If anything happens to the
                  Princess, you are all Arendelle has
                  left.

   Hans hesitates, realizing how much this kingdom has come to
   depend on him. Is he really all they have left?

   Just then the door opens and Gerda and Kai bring in Anna.

                            KAI
                  He's in here. Prince Hans.

   Hans rushes to Anna. She falls into his arms.

                            HANS (CONT'D)
                  You're so cold.

                            ANNA
                      (weak, but desperate)
                  Hans, you have to kiss me.

                            HANS
                  What?

                            ANNA
                  Now. Here we go.

   She tries to kiss him, but is too weak to pull herself up in
   his arms.

                            GERDA
                  We'll give you two some privacy.

   Everyone shuffles out, leaving Hans and Anna alone.

                            HANS
                  What happened out there?

                            ANNA
                  Elsa struck me with her powers.

                            HANS
                  You said she'd never hurt you.

                            ANNA
                  I was wrong.

   Anna crumbles, weak.

                            HANS
                  Anna.

   Hans carries her to a couch, sets her down.

                            ANNA
                      (shivering more)
                  She froze my heart and only an act
                  of true love can save me.

                            HANS
                      (understanding)
                  A true love's kiss.

   He takes her chin in his hand and gives her a tender smile.
   He leans in slowly...gently...

   Then he stops.

                            HANS (CONT'D)
                  Oh, Anna. If only there was someone
                  out there who loved you.

                            ANNA
                  What?

   Hans gets up, leaving her there.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  ...You said you did.

   He goes to the window and shuts the curtains.

                            HANS
                  As thirteenth in line in my own
                  kingdom, I didn't stand a chance. I
                  knew I'd have to marry into the
                  throne somewhere--

                            ANNA
                  What are you talking about?

                            HANS
                      (putting out the candles)
                  As heir, Elsa was preferable, of
                  course. But no one was getting
                  anywhere with her. But you-

                            ANNA
                  Hans?

                            HANS
                  You were so desperate for love you
                  were willing to marry me, just like
                  that.

   Hans crosses the room, grabs a pitcher of water from a table
   and goes to the fireplace.

                            HANS (CONT'D)
                  I figured, after we married, I'd
                  have to stage a little accident for
                  Elsa.

   Hans pours the water on the fireplace, putting out the fire.
   Anna tries to stop him. She falls to the floor, weak.

                  Hans. No, stop.

                  But then she doomed herself, and
                  you were dumb enough to go after
                  her.

                            ANNA
                  Please.

                            HANS

                  All that's left now is to kill Elsa
                  and bring back summer.

   Hans approaches Anna.

                            ANNA
                  ...You're no match for Elsa.

   He bends down, takes her chin in his hand again, this time
   not so gently.

                            HANS
                  No, you're no match for Elsa. I, on
                  the other hand, am the hero who is
                  going to save Arendelle from
                  destruction.

   She wrenches her face out of his hands.

                            ANNA
                      (anger)
                  You won't get away with this.

   Hans rises and crosses to the door.

                            HANS
                  Oh, I already have.

   Hans leaves and shuts her in, locking the door. Anna
   struggles to the door, yanks on the locked handle.

                            ANNA
                      (hoarse and weak)
                  Please, somebody help.

   The rest of her hair turns white and she crumbles to the

   INT. COUNCIL CHAMBER -- NIGHT

                            DUKE
                  What happened to her?

                            HANS
                  She was killed by Queen Elsa.

                            DUKE
                  Her own sister.

                            HANS
                      (really putting it on)
                  At least we got to say our marriage
                  vows...before she died in my arms.

   He bows his head in a brilliant display of teary grief.

                            DUKE
                  There can be no doubt now; Queen
                  Elsa is a monster and we are all in
                  grave danger.

                            SPANISH DIGNITARY
                  Prince Hans, Arendelle looks to
                  you.

   Hans nods; he knows what he's being asked to do, and he'll do
   it with the perfect amount of authority and gravitas.
                                                               98

                            HANS
                  With a heavy heart, I charge Queen
                  Elsa of Arendelle with treason and
                  sentence her to death.


   INT. ELSA'S DUNGEON -- DAY

   The cell ices over. Elsa looks out at the storm that is
   devastating Arendelle, then hears the guards approaching.

                            GUARD (O.S.)
                  She's dangerous. Move quickly and
                  with resolve.

   Elsa pulls at her shackles. They crack. Just as the door
   busts open, the weight of the ice crumbles the walls. The men
   duck out of the way.

   Hans pushes his way into the room...sees...

   The back wall is blown open. Broken shackles rest on the
   floor. Elsa is gone.


                                                       CUT TO:


   EXT. MOUNTAIN SLOPE -- DAY

   Kristoff heads into the mountains. Sven lags behind, not
   wanting to follow. He looks back at the kingdom, then shakes
   his head. Enough.

   He runs past Kristoff. Stops and turns to face him. He snorts
   and grunts.

                            KRISTOFF
                  What is it, buddy?

   Sven nudges Kristoff with his antlers.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Hey, watch it. What's wrong with
                  you?

   Sven snorts with more conviction, moos, brays.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                      (avoiding)
                  ...I don't understand you when you
                  talk like that.
                                                              99
FROZEN - J. Lee



   Kristoff tries to walk on ahead, but Sven uses his antlers to
   lift Kristoff off the ground.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Ah! Stop it! Put me down!

   Sven drops him hard then "yells" at him once more.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  No, Sven! We're not going back!

   Sven shakes his head, angrily.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  She's with her true love.

   Sven makes an "of-course-she-isn't" face. Kristoff gets it;
   he's made his point.

   Just then the wind picks up. Kristoff looks back at the
   kingdom. Sees a violent winter storm swirling over the
   castle. Sharp ice claws its way up the castle, encasing it.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Anna.

   Without hesitating, he dashes back down the mountain. Sven
   runs after him, catches up. Kristoff grabs Sven's harness and
   jumps onto his back.

                                                        CUT TO:


   INT. LIBRARY -- NIGHT

   Anna shivers by the door. She looks up to see ice overtaking
   the ceiling.

   The door handle suddenly jiggles. Stops. Jiggles again.

                            ANNA
                      (barely a whisper)
                  Help.

   CLICK. The door swings open. We see a carrot in the lock and
   hear a giggle of victory. Olaf takes the carrot, puts it back
   on his face. Then he sees Anna lying there.

                            OLAF
                  Anna. Oh no.

   He runs to the fireplace. Throws in some fresh wood,
   including one of his own arms, which he quickly rescues,
   before striking a match and relighting the fire.

                            ANNA
                  Olaf? Olaf. Get away from there.

                             OLAF
                  Whoa! So this is heat....
                      (considering)
                  I love it.

   He reaches a twig finger toward the flames. It catches on
   fire.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Ooh! But don't touch it!

   He shakes the flame out, as he rushes over to help Anna to
   the fire.

                             OLAF (CONT'D)
                  So, where's Hans? What happened to
                  your kiss?

                             ANNA
                  I was wrong about him. It wasn't
                  true love.

                            OLAF
                      (confused innocence)
                  Huh. But we ran all the way here?

                            ANNA
                  Please Olaf, you can't stay here;
                  you'll melt.

                            OLAF
                  I am not leaving here until we find
                  some other act of true love to save
                  you.

   He sits down behind her, stubbornly. Leans his back against
   hers and thinks.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  ...Do you happen to have any ideas?

                            ANNA
                  I don't even know what love is.

                            OLAF
                      (confident)
                  That's okay, I do....

   Olaf hops back up and puts a soothing hand on her shoulder.

FROZEN - J. Lee



                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Love is...putting someone else's
                  needs before yours, like, you know,
                  how Kristoff brought you back here
                  to Hans and left you forever.

                            ANNA
                  ...Kristoff loves me?

                            OLAF
                  Wow, you really don't know anything
                  about love, do you?

   His face starts to melt.

                            ANNA
                  Olaf, you're melting.

                            OLAF
                      (sweet and reassuring)
                  Some people are worth melting for.

   But then...his face REALLY melts. He panics, pushes the snow
   back in place.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Just maybe not right this second.

   Suddenly, the window blows open, cold wind sweeps in.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Don't worry, I've got it!

   Olaf flitters to the window. He pulls one panel of it shut
   but struggles with the second panel.

                             OLAF (CONT'D)
                      (determined)
                  We're going to get through--
                      (distracted)
                  Oh, wait. Hang on. I'm getting
                  something.

   He breaks an icicle off the window, uses it as a telescope
   and sees...

   Kristoff and Sven running back down the mountain.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  It's Kristoff and Sven! They're
                  coming back this way.

                            ANNA
                  ...They-they are?

                            OLAF
                  Wow, he's really moving fast.
                  Huh.... I guess I was wrong. I
                  guess Kristoff doesn't love you
                  enough to leave you behind.

   Anna tries to get to her feet.

                            ANNA
                  Help me up, Olaf. Please.

   He hurries over, tumbling over the couch, knocking over the
   chess set and water jugs.

                            OLAF
                  No, no, no, no, no. You need to
                  stay by the fire and keep warm.

                            ANNA
                  I need to get to Kristoff.

                            OLAF
                      (clueless)
                  Why...?
                      (realizing)
                  Oh, oh, oh, I know why.

   He hops around in an excited display of hope.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  There's your act of true love,
                  right there, riding across the
                  fjords like a valiant, pungent
                  reindeer king! Come on!

   The walls crack under the ice pressure.

                              OLAF (CONT'D)
                  Look out!

   They rush out the room just as the ceiling collapses.


   INT. CASTLE HALLWAY -- DAY

   Anna and Olaf struggle down the hall. Ice spikes grow and
   block their path.

                            OLAF
                  We're trapped.

   Anna looks around desperately for a way out.

   EXT. FJORD -- DAY

   Elsa runs, but is nearly blinded by the snow and wind.


   EXT. CASTLE -- DAY

   Anna and Olaf bust open a window. The storm is so strong it
   sweeps the window panes away.

                            OLAF
                  Slide, Anna.

   It's a long, snowy way down. But what choice do they have?
   They slide down the iced-covered building.

   Anna arrives at the bottom, weak but uninjured. Olaf gathers
   snow along the way. He arrives at the bottom as a giant
   snowball.

                            OLAF (CONT'D)
                  We made it!

   He shakes off the extra snow as Anna struggles to her feet.


   EXT. FJORD -- DAY

   Kristoff and Sven bound off the mountain and sprint across
   the frozen fjord waters and right into the heart of the
   storm. Its white-out wind pushes them back. But they fight
   through.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Come on, buddy, faster.



                                                     CUT TO:

   Anna and Olaf reach the shore of the fjords.

                              ANNA
                  Kristoff!

   The wind lifts Olaf up and pulls him apart. He goes swirling
   off into the storm.

                            OLAF
                  Keep going, Anna!

   Anna struggles on.
                                                              104
FROZEN - J. Lee



                              ANNA
                  Kristoff!

                                                       PAN TO:

   Kristoff rides Sven past cracking, frozen ships. Sven
   struggles over the uneven surface.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Come on! Come on!

   Suddenly, a mangled ship, risen by ice, capsizes   over them.
   They give it all they've got as debris falls all   around them
   and the mast shatters. They make it past just as   the entire
   ship slams down and cracks the thick ice beneath   their feet.

   The ice opens up. Sven bravely jumps over a gap. But it's too
   wide. He bucks Kristoff to safety, but lands in the freezing
   water and disappears below.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Sven? Sven!

   At first there's nothing but the wind and the tumbling icy
   water. But suddenly, Sven surfaces and claws his way to a
   floating ice chunk. He calls out, signalling for Kristoff to
   go on.

                              KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  Good boy.

                                                       CUT TO:

   Anna moves blindly across the fjord. Anna's hands frost over
   an icy blue. She stumbles on, determined. But she's running
   out of time.

   She clutches her chest. The color in her eyes fades, the
   inevitable is coming.

                                                       CUT TO:

   Kristoff, lost in the white-out, doesn't know which way to
   turn. But then he hears a faint--

                              ANNA (O.S.)
                  Kristoff.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Anna...? Anna!

                                                  WHITE OUT TO:
                                                              105

   Elsa struggles through her own storm, but the fear is
   consuming her. A dark shadow approaches. It's Hans.

                            HANS
                  Elsa. You can't run from this!

   Elsa backs away from him.

                            ELSA
                  ...Just take care of my sister.

                            HANS
                  Your sister? She returned from the
                  mountain weak and cold. She said
                  you froze her heart.

                              ELSA
                  What? No.

                            HANS
                  I tried to save her, but it was too
                  late. Her skin was ice. Her hair
                  turned white...

   Elsa's face sinks as she realizes what she has done.

                            HANS (CONT'D)
                  Your sister is dead... because of
                  you.

   Elsa drops to her knees, emotionally broken. And with that,
   the swirling storm suddenly stops. The snow freezes mid-air,
   hangs suspended, trapped in grief.

   Citizens and dignitaries rush to the wall's edge and look out
   to see...

   Anna, barely able to move but now able to see across the
   fjords to...

                            ANNA
                      (a whisper)
                  Kristoff.

                              KRISTOFF
                  Anna.

   Anna pushes on towards Kristoff. He runs top speed towards
   her. There's still a lot of fjord to cross, but Kristoff is
   giving it all he's got. He's going to make it.

   But then, Anna hears the sound of a sword being drawn from
   its scabbard. She turns and sees Hans, behind Elsa, as he
   raises his sword over his head.

                              ANNA
                  Elsa.

   Anna looks back at Kristoff as he runs for her. She gives him
   a longing look, but then turns away from him and then...

   Using all of her remaining strength, as Hans brings his sword
   down, Anna throws herself in front of Elsa.

                              ANNA (CONT'D)
                  No!

   In that instant, Anna freezes to solid ice. The sword hits
   her instead of Elsa. The sword shatters completely. The force
   of it sends Hans flying back and knocks him out.

                              ELSA
                  Anna!

   Elsa rushes to Anna and touches her sister's frozen face.

                            ELSA (CONT'D)
                  Oh, Anna...no...no, please no.

   Olaf walks up and sees Anna, frozen.

                            OLAF
                      (confused, sad)
                  Anna?

   Elsa hugs Anna and cries.

   Kristoff watches in shocked despair. Sven steps up to his
   side.

   Citizens and dignitaries on the castle walls bow their heads.

   All of Arendelle is joined in somber silence.

   But then, Anna warms. She begins to thaw.

   Olaf looks up and gasps. Kristoff and Sven notice, light up.

   Anna bends her arm and embraces Elsa.

                            ELSA
                  Wha-? Anna?

   Anna opens her eyes. She smiles at Elsa, relieved.

                              ANNA
                  Oh, Elsa.

   They embrace.
                                                              107
FROZEN - J. Lee



                            ELSA
                  ...You sacrificed yourself for me?

                             ANNA
                      (weak)
                  ...I love you.

   Olaf realizes what's happened. He's so excited about it, he
   lifts his head right off his body and exclaims--

                            OLAF
                  An act of true love will thaw a
                  frozen heart.

                            ELSA
                      (processing)
                  Love...will thaw...
                      (realizing)
                  Love.... Of course.

   Elsa looks at Anna with confidence.

                            ANNA
                  Elsa?

                            ELSA
                  Love.

   Elsa lifts her arms, and the ground shakes and cracks. The
   ice and snow breaks away and rises high into the air.

   Beneath their feet the bow of a ship thaws.

   The entire fjord melts and other boats right themselves.

   The villagers come out to see the warmth returning.

   In one final wave, Elsa draws all of the snow into a giant
   snowflake in the sky, then waves it away, leaving only a warm
   summer day.

                            ANNA
                  I knew you could do it.

                            OLAF
                      (melting, good-naturedly)
                  Hands down, this is the best day of
                  my life...and quite possibly the
                  last.

                            ELSA
                  Oh, Olaf. Hang on, little guy.
                                                                  108
FROZEN - J. Lee



   Elsa waves her hand and surrounds Olaf with a swirl of cold
   air. He refreezes. Above his head she leaves a little,
   perpetually-snowing storm cloud. Olaf loves it.

                            OLAF
                  Hey, my own personal flurry.

   Kristoff sees Hans trying to get to his feet. He marches
   toward him, prepared for a fight. But Anna puts up a hand and
   stops him.

                            ANNA
                  Uh. Uh. Uh.

   She'll handle this. She goes over to Hans.

                            HANS
                      (confused)
                  Anna? But she froze your heart.

                            ANNA
                  The only frozen heart around here
                  is yours.

   She turns away from him, proud of her words. But not yet
   satisfied, she turns back and punches him right in the face.

                            HANS
                  Ah! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

   He falls overboard.

   Elsa comes over to Anna and hugs her. Over her shoulder,
   Kristoff meets Anna's eyes. She smiles brighter, happy.

                                                        DISSOLVE TO:


   EXT. ARENDELLE -- DAY

   It's a beautiful summer day. The mighty ships have been
   repaired and are sailing away.

   On one of the ships, HANS is thrown into a brig.

                            FRENCH DIGNITARY
                      (to Kai)
                  I will return this scoundrel to his
                  country. We shall see what his
                  twelve big brothers think of his
                  behavior.

                            KAI
                  Arendelle thanks you, my Lord.
                                                           109
FROZEN - J. Lee



   Down on the dock, Arendelle guards lead the Duke and his two
   thugs to their ship.

                            DUKE
                  This is unacceptable. I am
                  innocent. I'm a victim of fear.
                  I've been traumatized.
                      (bad acting)
                  Ow! My neck hurts. Is there a
                  doctor I could...No? And I demand
                  to see the Queen!

   Kai steps down from the gangplank to the dock.

                            KAI
                  I have a message from the Queen.
                      (reading a scroll)
                  Arendelle will henceforth and
                  forever no longer do business of
                  any sort with Weaseltown.

                            DUKE
                  Weselton. It's Weselton!

   The guards usher him and his thugs onto their ship.


   EXT. VILLAGE SQUARE -- DAY

   Anna runs through the crowd, pulling a blindfolded Kristoff
   along behind her. She's so excited she can't stand it.

                            ANNA
                  Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on!

   She runs him right into a pole.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Pole.

                            ANNA
                  Oops. Sorry.


   EXT. ARENDELLE DOCKS -- DAY

   Anna skips to the perfect spot and stops.

                            ANNA
                      (stopping)
                  Okay. Okay. Here we are.
                                                           110
FROZEN - J. Lee



   She takes off the blindfold. Kristoff opens his eyes. Before
   him sits the most beautiful, suped-up sled. Sven poses in
   front of it -- Vanna White-style.

                            ANNA (CONT'D)
                  I owe you a sled.

                            KRISTOFF
                      (blown away)
                  Are you serious?

                            ANNA
                  Yes. And it's the latest model.

                            KRISTOFF
                  No. I can't accept this...

                            ANNA
                  You have to. No returns. No
                  exchanges. Queen's orders. She's
                  named you the official Arendelle
                  Ice Master and Deliverer.

   Sven shows off the Ice-Master-and-Deliverer medal like he's
   king of the bucks.

                            KRISTOFF
                  What? That's not a thing.

   But he can't help but admire her enthusiasm.

                            ANNA
                  Sure it is. And it even has a cup
                  holder.... Do you like it?

                             KRISTOFF
                  Like it?

   He sweeps her up high overhead and spins her around.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  I love it.... I could kiss you!

   He drops her, suddenly embarrassed.

                            KRISTOFF (CONT'D)
                  ...I could. I mean I'd like to.
                  I'd... may I? We me....I mean, may
                  we? Wait, what?

   She gives him a quick kiss on the cheek.

                             ANNA
                  We may.
                                                              111
FROZEN - J. Lee



   He smiles and goes for it. It's a true love's kiss, alright.

   We move past them to find Olaf enjoying the summer.

   With his snow cloud safely overhead, he's free to smell the
   flowers, which he does. Then sneezes his carrot nose off.

   Sven catches it between his teeth. Olaf gasps as Sven sucks
   the whole carrot into his mouth. It's gone.

   Olaf's face sinks in sadness. But not to fear, Sven spits the
   carrot back out and jams it into Olaf's face where it
   belongs. It's completely covered in reindeer spit, but Olaf
   doesn't seem to mind. He hugs Sven happily.

                                                       CUT TO:


   EXT. CASTLE COURTYARD -- DAY

   The gates to the castle are wide open. In the courtyard,
   stands Elsa.

                            ELSA
                  Are you ready?

   Villagers cheer. Elsa stops and creates an ice rink. The
   people, skates at the ready, hope onto it and twirl about.

   Elsa then freezes the fountain in a beautiful design and adds
   some snow flurries for atmosphere.

   Anna comes slipping in. Elsa catches her.

                            ANNA
                  I like the open gates.

                            ELSA
                  We are never closing them again.

   Elsa then waves her hand and magical ice skates (literally
   made of ice) form on Anna's boots.

                            ANNA
                  What? Oh, Elsa, they're beautiful,
                  but you know I don't ska--

   Elsa grabs Anna's hands and pulls her along on the ice. Anna
   slips and slides, but laughs in delight.

   Sven goes slipping past. Kristoff runs after him.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Look out. Reindeer coming through!
                                                                 112
FROZEN - J. Lee



   Olaf skates and helps Elsa coach Anna.

                            OLAF
                  That's it. Glide and pivot and
                  glide and pivot.

   We pull away slowly, into the sky. We arrive at a bird's-eye
   view to see that where the castle had crumbled has been
   repaired with a ice.

   All is right in Arendelle.

                                                   FINAL FADE OUT.

                                  THE END
