Oh, the new stained glass window looks outstanding, baileywick!
I can't wait to show it to queen miranda.
The goldenwing circus is in town!
Can we go, dad? Can we? Please, please, please?
( chuckles )
Well, I don't see why not.
Baileywick, would you please arrange tickets for today's show.
Right away, your highness.
( children cheer )
We're going to the circus!
Sofia, wait until you see it!

James, you know the rule.
No playing ball inside the castle.
There are too many things that could break--
Like the new stained glass window.
It's very pretty.
Of course it is, sofia. There's a picture of me in it.
I'm gonna go get your mother right now to show it to her.
( humming )
Okay, now back to the show!
James, what are you doing?
Dad said no playing ball in the castle.
I just wanna show you one more trick.
But dad said-- don't worry.
It's as easy as one, two, three!
Huh?
( all gasp )
James: Uh-oh!
Oh, no! The window!
My picture!
I didn't mean to break it!
Oh, dad is not going to like this.
What do we do?
We have to go tell him.
If he finds out I broke a castle rule, he'll never let me go to the circus!
It doesn't matter whether we tell him.
He's going to see the window when he comes back.
Uh, not if we hide it!
We can move that suit of armor in front of the window!
Mom and dad will never see it!
I don't know...
Please? I don't want to miss the juggling jesters!
And the circus only comes once a year!
Pretty, pretty please?
Maybe we should help him. He really wants to go.
But he broke my part of the window.
Come on, amber. I'd do it for you.
He'd do it for you!
All right, fine.
( sighs ) great! Thank you!
Come on, help me push!
( both grunting )
Wish this armor wasn't made of armor!
It's...Not...Moving!
Amber! You're not even pushing!
Isn't it enough I'm not telling on you?
Amber!
( sighs ) okay.
( all grunting )
Whoa!
Got it!
Miranda: Rollie, can't you just tell me what the surprise is?
Roland: ( chuckles ) you'll see!
Mom and dad are coming! What do we do?
Oh, I know!
I'll keep them from coming in!
But hurry and cover up that window!
( both grunting )
Okay, just a few more steps and...
Hi, mother. Hi, daddy.
I have a surprise--
A new song I wrote on the harp just for you!
Oh, and I can't wait to hear it,
But first I want to show your mother her surprise.
But daddy, please?
I... ( chuckles )
Well, I suppose the surprise can wait a bit longer.
Wonderful! Let's go to the music room! Quickly!
( sighs ) that was close.
Now let's finish moving the armor.
All right.
( both grunting )
James: A little further and...
There!
Wow.
You can't even see that it's broken.
See? I told you. Problem solved! Thanks, buddy!
Whoa! Don't fall! James!
( gasps )
Uh-oh. That wasn't part of the plan.
♪
( snoring )
Psst! Wake up! Rollie!
( clears throat )
Uh... ( chuckles )

That was called song for my beloved parents, number one.
Well done, amber!
That was lovely!
Oh, thank you! Thank you! Roland: Brava! Brava, amber!
Oh, thank you so much!
And now... Song for my beloved parents, number two!
Actually, amber, I think it's time we go to the throne room.
Oh, yes, I've been told
There's a surprise for me there.
And I want to show it to your mother before we all leave for the circus.
So amber, if you'll excuse us...
Not yet! Uh, first I...
Have to show you...
My new tiara.
Pretty please?
Well, it's very simple, really. I say it to the children all the time.
Oh, if you don't have time for me, I understand.
I know you're very busy.
( crying )
Oh, amber. I'll always make time for you.
So it's settled, you'll see my tiara!
It's in my room! Come on! We can take the long way!
It's all cracked.
Now what do we do?
Now we tell dad.
There must be something else we can try!
Oh! We can cover the window with a curtain!
But dad will open it when he shows mom the window.
Hmm... Oh, maybe we can get the royal glass maker to make a new one!
I think that takes a long time.
( gasps ) maybe mr. Cedric can fix the window with magic!
Great idea! Let's go ask him!
( humming )
( caws )
Ah... ( sniffs )
Smells like evil.
Mr. Cedric, we need your help!
I broke the new stained glass window in the throne room!
Can you use your magic to help put it back together?
Oh, yes, I could...
If I didn't have a thousand more important things to do.
You have a thousand things to do?
( clears throat )
But... I suppose I could make a little time for you.
Really? Oh, that's great!
Thank you so much, mr. Cedric!
Oh, it's no trouble at all. Oh, it's no trouble at all.
Now I have a potion to brew, so run along
And I'll meet you in the throne room.
( both cackle )
Little do they know that this potion
Will not fix their broken window.
But it is going to get me sofia's precious amulet!
( cackles )
I just dip my wand into the potion like so and...
Voila!
Now, wormy, watch what happens
When I point my wand at something!
Petuzi!
It gets pulled right into my hands!
Petuzi! Petuzi!
( caws )
Petuzi!
Whoa! Whoa!
( groans )
Oh, I guess the spell only works on little objects.
( thud )
Lucky for me, sofia's amulet is nice and small!
And once I have the amulet of avalor,
I can use its magic to take over the kingdom!
Finally! ( cackles )
( cackles )
( coughs )
Right, enough evil cackling! Let's get that amulet!
Where's cedric?
I'm sure he'll be here soon.
Hello, children!
Your faithful sorcerer has arrived!
Oh, good!
Oh, that is one broken window, all right.
So can you fix it?
Of course, I have a spell right here!
We knew you could help!
Right. Now I'll need you two to stand in front of the window.
Why?
You'll see, you'll see!
Now just stand perfectly still.
Don't move an amulet-- I mean, a muscle!
I really hope this works.
Me too!
Petuzi!
Whoa!
Oh, no!
Oh, mr. Cedric.
At least the crack's not there anymore.
But mr. Cedric is!
This is just getting worse and worse!
Ruby tiara... No.
Opal tiara... No.
Here it is! My new tiara!
Um, amber, we've seen that one already.
We gave it to you for your birthday.
Oh. Uh, well, have you seen this one?
This one has pink diamonds in it.
( gasps ) ooh!
Amber, dear, we're happy to see all your tiaras.
But right now, it's time for your mother's surprise.
But you didn't even see the diamonds!
Sparkly, sparkly diamonds!
Oh, this extra special tiara is one of a kind!
Oh! Daddy, wait!
( sighs ) this is impossible!
James, mr. Cedric is stuck in the window!
We really have to tell dad!
Or...
I could use magic to fix everything!
But you're not a sorcerer!
How hard can it be?
I'll just find a spell in cedric's book,
Wave this wand around and--
I really don't think we should do this.
There! This spell looks like it'll work!
I can't look!
Mom! Dad! Look at the new ballet steps I just learned!
And plié... And jeté... And plié, jeté!
Sorry, darling. After we go to the throne room.
But daddy! I've been working on my yodeling!
Don't you wanna hear it?
( yodeling )
Zabra zend, zabra zoo!
Free our friend and fix the window too!
I think it's working!
Whoa!
Poseidon's pumpkins!
( grunts )
James, you did it! Yup!
( both gasp )
What's happening?
Oh, no!
Uh-oh!
( gasps ) the window!
Oh, it wasn't me, your majesty.
It was the children!
What is? What's going on?
There was a stained glass window here of the entire family.
That was your surprise. I had it made just for you.
Oh, rollie, that's so sweet.
I guess I have to tell them I broke the window.
But then you won't get to go to the circus!
Children, you know the window was a surprise for your mother and it was very important to me.
Now it's broken. What happened here?
Mom, dad, what happened was--
I broke it! It was my fault.
But james--
I was playing ball in the house!
You did this, sofia?
I'm sorry.
So are we. This seems so unlike you.
And it seems a lot like you!
( sighs )
We're very disappointed.
And since you broke a castle rule...
I'm afraid you'll have to stay home from the circus.
I understand.
All right, everyone. Time to leave for the circus.
( gasps ) the window!
Sofia played ball in the castle.
Sofia?
Could you escort her to her room, please?
Of course, your majesty.
Have fun, everyone.
Now, shall we?
Uh, I'll meet you outside.
Sofia, wait! I just need to talk to her for a second.
Why did you tell mom and dad you broke the window when it was really me?
Because I didn't want you to get in trouble.
James, I know how much you love the circus.
I wanted to make sure you got to go.
Wow. Thanks.
You better get going, james, or you'll be late.
Go on. You can tell me all about it when you get back.
Okay. Bye.
( sighs )
Coachman, to the circus.
( whinnies )
( sighs ) sofia, I haven't known you as long as I've known james.
But I know both of you well enough to know that
You wouldn't play ball in the castle if the king told you not to.
If you did take the blame for him, that was very kind of you.
But a lie is a lie...
Even if you're trying to help someone.
I didn't think about it that way.
Maybe next time you will.
Peppermint tea?
I'd love some.
Thanks, baileywick.
Any time.
♪
Hey!
( whinnies )
Having fun, james?
( sighs ) I guess so.
And now, for our next act...
The amazing juggling jesters!
Sofia would've loved this.
It's too bad she broke the window.
I hear the jesters are your favorite, james!
Yeah.
Is something wrong?
Um, it's just...
I have something to tell you.
Sofia didn't break the window...
And she wasn't the one playing ball inside.
It was me. What?
She took the blame so I could go to the circus.
Amber, were you playing the harp and showing us tiaras
To keep us from the seeing the window?
Maybe.
( sighs ) yes, it's true.
I think it's time we all went home.
Huh. The king left?
We're very disappointed in you.
James, you broke a castle rule.
And then the three of you tried to hide it from us.
I'm sorry. Me too.
Very sorry.
When one of you makes a mistake...
You need to tell us.
Otherwise, the problem can get worse.
A lot worse.
Families need to be honest
And not keep secrets from each other.
So next time something like this happens,
Just tell the truth right from the start.
I promise to do that from now on.
On the rare occasion that I do something wrong,
I'll be sure to tell you.
So what are we gonna do with the rest of the afternoon?
I could play song for my beloved parents, number three!
Uh...
Your majesties, some one is at the door
Who would like to have a word with you.
You should come see for yourself.
Okay.
We'll be right back.
My king, my queen.
Ah, greetings. What brings you to the castle?
We saw you leave the circus early.
Were you unhappy with our show?
( chuckles ) no. No, not at all.
We had a family matter to tend to.
Believe me, if our children had a choice,
They'd watch the circus all day, every day!
In that case, my friends and I would be happy to give you
A special performance right now!
Okay. Hmm...
Uh, what do you think, miranda?
Well, the children seem to have learned their lesson.
Hmm... True...
Sounds marvelous! Thank you!
What's the surprise?
You'll see. Open your eyes.
