Episode Synopsis

The Little Mermaid is a fairy tale about a young mermaid named Ariel who dreams of living on land. Fascinated by the human world, she falls in love with a prince she saves from a shipwreck. To be with him, she makes a deal with the sea witch Ursula, trading her voice for human legs. But if the prince doesn’t love her in return, she’ll lose her soul. Ariel struggles in silence as the prince falls for another. Heartbroken, she sacrifices herself to save him, dissolving into sea foam. In the original tale, her spirit is rewarded with the chance to earn a soul through kindness.
