Princess Aurora : [sighs] Oh, dear. Why do they still treat me like a child?
Owl : Who?
Princess Aurora : Aunt Flora, and Fauna, and Merryweather. They never want me to meet anyone.
[Giggles]
Princess Aurora : But you know something? I fooled them. I *have* met someone.
Owl : Who? Who?
Princess Aurora : Oh, a prince.
[Birds chirp]
Princess Aurora : Well, he's tall and handsome, and... and so romantic.
[Birds chirp]
Princess Aurora : Oh, we walk together, and talk together, and just before we say goodbye, he takes me in his arms, and then... I wake up.
[all the animals sigh]

Fauna : And you are, dear.
Flora : Princess Aurora. Tonight we're taking you back to your father, King Stefan.
Princess Aurora : But... but I can't! He's coming here tonight. I promised to meet him.
Flora : I'm sorry, child. But you must never see that young man again.

Prince Phillip : I'm awfully sorry. I didn't mean to frighten you.

Flora , Fauna , Merryweather : [appearing from their hiding place] Surprise! Surprise! Happy Birthday!
Princess Aurora : Oh, you darlings! This is the happiest day of my life! Everything's *so* wonderful!
-
Princess Aurora : [Excitedly] Just wait until you meet him!
Fauna : Him?

Flora : You have?
Merryweather : Where?
Princess Aurora : Once upon a dream.
