Grimsby seeing an opportunity for Eric to find love, advises Eric to give Ariel a tour of the Kingdom, and Ariel gladly accepts the offer. She has a great time, and all is left to do is get Eric to kiss her to fulfill her end of the bargain she made with Ursula. It fails due to Ursula’s pet eels knocking the canoe over. Eric is still trying to find the girl who saved him, but he’s not as enthusiastic about it. Grimsby walks up to him, and says that a warm and sweet girl of flesh and blood is better than a dream girl. Eric looks at Ariel from her tower, and smiles at her. He looks back at the flute he used on the ship to find the girl, and he throws it into the sea. He’s about to go tell Ariel how he feels, but Ursula in a disguise and using Ariel’s voice hypnotizes Eric into marrying her. | + | At the surface, Eric is still looking for the girl who saved him, and seems that he won’t rest until he does so.
