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
Nữ hoàng băng giá lake. They SING.
"The Nữ hoàng băng giá tim, trái tim (Ice Worker's Song)"

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 ngựa drag heavy ice plows.

The sun sets. Lanterns are lit.
ICE HARVESTERS (CONT'D)
THIS ICY FORCE BOTH FOUL AND FAIR
HAS A Nữ hoàng băng giá tim, trái tim 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 tình yêu AND STRIKE FOR FEAR.
THERE'S BEAUTY AND THERE'S DANGER HERE.
chẻ, phân chia, split THE ICE APART!
BEWARE THE Nữ hoàng băng giá 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 di chuyển 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.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - 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 bởi 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 giường and lifts one of Elsa's
eyelids.
YOUNG ANNA
(mischievously)
Do bạn want to build a snowman?
Elsa's eyes both pop open. She smiles.
INT. lâu đài STAIRCASE -- NIGHT
Anna, now wearing snow boots, pulls Elsa bởi 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.

YOUNG ANNA
I tình yêu 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
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
The parents burst through the Nữ hoàng băng giá door. GASP at the sight
of the room.
KING
Elsa, what have bạn 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 ngựa 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 bởi with the
girls, leaving the wake of ice.

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 bởi 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 hoặc cursed?
KING
Born. And they're getting stronger.
Grand Pabbie motions for the Queen to bring Anna to him. She
does. He examines her.
7
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
GRAND PABBIE
(about Anna)
bạn are lucky it wasn't her heart.
The tim, trái tim is not so easily changed,
but the head can be persuaded.
KING
Do what bạn 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 hiển thị 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)
bạn 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.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - 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 lâu đài gates shutting.
KING (O.S.) (CONT'D)
Until then, we'll lock the gates.
We'll reduce the staff. We will

keep her powers hidden from
everyone... including Anna.
-The lâu đài shutters close.

YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)
DO bạn 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....
(starting their mantra)
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 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 thư viện -- 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 tường is Nữ hoàng băng giá 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.

Elsa? PLEASE I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE
PEOPLE ARE ASKING WHERE YOU'VE BEEN
THEY SAY HAVE COURAGE
AND I'M TRYING TO
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 bạn AND ME.
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?
(weak, internal)
DO bạn WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN?
We di chuyển through the door...
-INT. ELSA'S ROOM -- DAY. Elsa is sitting in the exact same
pose as Anna. Her bedroom is Nữ hoàng băng giá with ice. Snowflakes hang
in the air, suspended bởi grief.
FADE OUT.
12
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 bạn 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 áo sơ mi 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 di chuyển on to PERSI and AGGIE, a super-excited couple who
rush towards the castle.
13
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 di chuyển past them, to a particular lâu đài window.
CUT TO:
INT. CASTLE, ANNA'S BEDROOM -- DAY
Anna, 18, snores. Drools. KNOCK. KNOCK.
KAI (O.S.)
Princess Anna...?
Anna sits up. She's got major bedhead. She coughs. Snorts.
Pulls a hair from her mouth.
ANNA
...Huh? Yeah?
KAI (O.S.)
Sorry to wake you, ma'am but--
ANNA
No, bạn didn't. I've been up for
hours.
14
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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.
ANNA
Ready for what?
KAI (O.S.)
Your sister's coronation, ma'am.
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!
SLAM CUT TO:
EXT. lâu đài 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 rau xà lách, salad PLATES...?
-Anna slides along the floor of the ballroom in her socks.
ANNA (CONT'D)
FOR YEARS I HAVE ROAMED THESE EMPTY HALLS
WHY HAVE A BALLROOM WITH NO BALLS?
FINALLY, THEY'RE OPENING UP THE GATES!
-She shakes hands with a suit of armor. Breaks it. Hides the

THERE'LL BE REAL, ACTUAL PEOPLE -
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

I'LL BE DANCING THROUGH THE NIGHT.
-Anna walks through the garden and follows a family of geese.

BUT I'M SOMEWHERE IN THAT ZONE
'CAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,

(speaking)
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 áo choàng 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)

I SUDDENLY SEE HIM STANDING THERE,
A BEAUTIFUL STRANGER TALL AND FAIR.

I WANNA STUFF SOME Sô cô la IN MY
FACE!
-She grabs the bust of the man and swings it around.
ANNA (CONT'D)
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 hàng đầu, đầu trang of the cake.
-Anna bursts into the portrait room, bounces on the
furniture, and interacts with the paintings.

ANNA (CONT'D)
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,
THERE'LL BE MAGIC, THERE'LL BE FUN.

-INT. LIBRARY. ELSA, now a very poised 21, watches out the
window as the coronation guests arrive.
ELSA
DON'T LET THEM IN.
DON'T LET THEM SEE.
BE THE GOOD GIRL
bạn ALWAYS HAVE TO BE.
Elsa moves to a painting of her father's coronation. She
takes off her gloves and mimics the painting bởi holding a
candlestick and ornament in place of an orb and scepter.
ELSA (CONT'D)
CONCEAL. DON'T FEEL.
PUT ON A SHOW.
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.
We cut between Anna's excitement and Elsa's nerves.
ANNA
IT'S ONLY FOR TODAY!
ELSA
IT'S AGONY TO WAIT.
ANNA
IT'S AGONY TO WAIT!!!
ELSA
TELL THE GUARDS TO OPEN UP THE GATE.

ANNA (CONT'D)
I KNOW IT ALL ENDS TOMORROW,
SO IT HAS TO BE TODAY!!
`CAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
FOREVER. . .
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER!
NOTHING'S IN MY WAY!!!
-Anna SLAMS right into the breast of a HORSE!
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 thuyền and steadies it.
ANNA (CONT'D)
(frustrated)
Hey!
HANS
I'm so sorry. Are bạn hurt?
The rider, HANS, sure is handsome and regal.
ANNA
(gentler)
Hey. I-ya, no. No. I'm okay.
HANS
Are bạn 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.
18
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 thuyền tips. Hans tumbles on hàng đầu, đầu trang of Anna. Awkward.
ANNA
Hi...again.
The horse slams his foot back into the thuyền to stabilize it.
Anna and Hans tumble the other way. Anna lands on hàng đầu, đầu trang 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, bạn know...
(patting the horse)
Hello.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 thuyền 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)
Sehm hon HELL-drr IN-um HELL-gum

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 cái gối, gối before anyone notices the ice. She picks
up her gloves and slips them on. She made it.
CUT TO:
INT. GREAT HALL -- NIGHT
Springy âm nhạc fills the Great Hall. Guests dance. Eat. Laugh.
TRUMPETS SOUND.
KAI

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 tiếp theo to Elsa.
ANNA
Here? Are bạn sure?
She and Elsa sneak awkward peeks at each other.
ELSA
...Hi.
ANNA
Hi me...? Oh. Um. Hi.
ELSA

ANNA
Thank you. bạn look beautifuller. I

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 bạn 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.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
DUKE
(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 bạn 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 bạn know the
reason? Hmm?
He gets in her face, suspicious.
ANNA
...No.
23
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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
monkey...I fly.
JUMP CUT TO:
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 bạn 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.
ELSA
(sincere)
Me too....
But then Elsa catches herself. She stiffens up, looks away.
ELSA (CONT'D)
But it can't.
ANNA
Why not? If--
ELSA
It just can't.
24
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 bởi 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.
DISSOLVE TO:
LATER: Anna and Hans drink and chat.
ANNA (CONT'D)

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

ANNA (CONT'D)
...Your physique helps I'm sure.
DISSOLVE TO:

What's this?

ANNA
Yeah, the whole thing! bạn got it.
They laugh as the krumkake crumbles in his face.
ANNA(CONT'D)
Okay wait, wait. So bạn have how
many brothers?
HANS
Twelve older brothers. Three of
them pretended I was invisible...
literally...for two years.
ANNA
That's horrible.
HANS
It's what brothers do.
ANNA
...And sisters. Elsa and I were
really close when we were little.
But then, one ngày she just shut me
out, and I never knew why.
He takes her hand. Leans in close.
HANS
I would never shut bạn out.
ANNA
Okay, can I just say something
crazy?
HANS
I tình yêu crazy.
"Love is an Open Door"

INT. BALL -- NIGHT
Anna pushes through the crowd towards Elsa, Hans in tow.
ANNA
Oops! Pardon. Sorry. Can we just
get around bạn 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
Southern Isles.
HANS
(bowing)
Your Majesty.
Elsa gives a polite but reserved curtsey.
ANNA
We would like--
HANS
--your blessing--
ANNA
--of--
ANNA/HANS
--our marriage!
ELSA
Marriage...?
ANNA
Yes!
ELSA
I'm sorry, I'm confused.
ANNA
Well, we haven't worked out all the
details ourselves. We'll need a few
days to plan the ceremony. Of
course we'll have soup, roast, and
ice cream and then--
Wait. Would we live here?
ELSA
Here?
30
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
HANS
Absolutely!
ELSA
Anna--
ANNA
Oh, we can invite all twelve of
your brothers to stay with us--
ELSA
What? No, no, no, no, no.
ANNA
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 bạn have to say, you-
bạn can say to both of us.
ELSA
Fine. bạn can't marry a man you
just met.
ANNA
bạn can if it's true love.
ELSA
Anna, what do bạn know about true
love?
ANNA
thêm than you. All bạn know is how
to shut people out.
ELSA
bạn asked for my blessing, but my
answer is no. Now, excuse me.
31
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
HANS
Your Majesty, if I may ease your--
ELSA
(flustered)
No, bạn 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 găng tay in panic.
ELSA
Give me my glove!
Anna holds the găng tay 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 bạn shut me out?!
Why do bạn shut the world out?!
What are bạn so afraid of?!
ELSA
I said, enough!

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
Ice shoots from Elsa's hand, spikes across the floor! Guests
cry out in shock, back away.
DUKE
(ducking behind his men)
...Sorcery. I knew there was
something dubious going on here.
ANNA
Elsa...?
Elsa rushes out of the room.
CUT TO:
EXT. COURTYARD -- NIGHT
Elsa bursts out of the lâu đài door. The CITIZENS CHEER!
CROWD
There she is. Your Majesty! Long
live the Queen! Queen Elsa.... Come
drink with us.
Elsa ducks through the crowd, holding her bare hand.
BOWING TOWNSMAN
Queen Elsa.
TOWNSWOMAN WITH BABY
Your Majesty? Are bạn 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!
ELSA
(to the Duke)
Please, just stay away from me.
Stay away!
Magic accidentally shoots from her hand and turns the
staircase into ice. The thugs and the Duke fall.
DUKE
Monster.... Monster!
33
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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. lâu đài COURTYARD -- NIGHT
Snow falls. Hans and Anna di chuyển through the panicking crowd.
CROWD WALLAH
Snow? It's...snow...in July.
34
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
HANS
...Are bạn all right?
ANNA
(in shock)
No.
HANS
Did bạn 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)
bạn 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 bạn 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
...And my sister's not a monster.
DUKE
She nearly killed me.
HANS
bạn slipped on ice.
DUKE
Her ice!
35
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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?
ANNA
(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 bạn here to take care of
Arendelle.
He sees the desperation in her eyes.
HANS
...On my honor.
She throws on the áo choàng and hops right onto the horse,
coronation dress and all.
ANNA
(to the crowd)
I leave Prince Hans in charge!
HANS
(before letting her go)
Are bạn sure bạn can trust her? I
don't want bạn getting hurt.
ANNA
She's my sister; she would never
hurt me.
36
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 bạn ALWAYS HAVE TO
BE.
CONCEAL,
DON'T FEEL,
DON'T LET THEM KNOW.
WELL, NOW THEY KNOW.
Elsa takes off her găng tay 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.
37
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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.
We're underwater looking up at it. A saw cuts through,
heading right for us.

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.

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 tình yêu AND STRIKE FOR FEAR.
THERE'S BEAUTY AND THERE'S DANGER HERE.
chẻ, phân chia, split THE ICE APART!
BEWARE THE Nữ hoàng băng giá 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 di chuyển 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

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

Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.
YOUNG ELSA

Anna rolls onto her back and spreads all her weight on Elsa.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - 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 bởi 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 giường and lifts one of Elsa's
eyelids.
YOUNG ANNA
(mischievously)
Do bạn want to build a snowman?
Elsa's eyes both pop open. She smiles.
INT. lâu đài STAIRCASE -- NIGHT
Anna, now wearing snow boots, pulls Elsa bởi 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.

YOUNG ANNA
I tình yêu 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.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
The parents burst through the Nữ hoàng băng giá door. GASP at the sight
of the room.
KING
Elsa, what have bạn done? This is
getting out of hand!
QUEEN

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 ngựa 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 bởi with the
girls, leaving the wake of ice.
KRISTOFF

Nữ hoàng băng giá - 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 bởi 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 hoặc cursed?
KING
Born. And they're getting stronger.
Grand Pabbie motions for the Queen to bring Anna to him. She
does. He examines her.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
GRAND PABBIE
(about Anna)
bạn are lucky it wasn't her heart.
The tim, trái tim is not so easily changed,
but the head can be persuaded.
KING
Do what bạn 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 hiển thị 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)
bạn 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.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - 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 lâu đài gates shutting.
KING (O.S.) (CONT'D)
Until then, we'll lock the gates.
We'll reduce the staff. We will

keep her powers hidden from
everyone... including Anna.
-The lâu đài shutters close.
-Anna sits on her giường 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:

down the hall.
INT. HALLWAY, ELSA'S DOOR -- DAY
Anna knocks on Elsa's door and SINGS.
"Do bạn Want to Build a Snowman?"
YOUNG ANNA

YOUNG ANNA (CONT'D)

ANNA (9) (CONT'D)
Hang in there, Joan.
-INT. EMPTY thư viện -- 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.

Anna slides down the door and sits with her head against it.
ANNA (CONT'D)
WE ONLY HAVE EACH OTHER.
IT'S JUST bạn AND ME.
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?
(weak, internal)
DO bạn WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN?
We di chuyển through the door...
-INT. ELSA'S ROOM -- DAY. Elsa is sitting in the exact same

FADE OUT.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 bạn 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 áo sơ mi 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 di chuyển on to PERSI and AGGIE, a super-excited couple who
rush towards the castle.
13
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 di chuyển past them, to a particular lâu đài window.

Pulls a hair from her mouth.
ANNA

KAI (O.S.)
Sorry to wake you, ma'am but--
ANNA
No, bạn didn't. I've been up for
hours.
14
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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.
ANNA
Ready for what?
KAI (O.S.)
Your sister's coronation, ma'am.
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!
SLAM CUT TO:
EXT. lâu đài HALL -- DAY
Anna bursts out of her room, wearing her coronation dress.
She finishes pinning ribbons in her hair. Seeing the hustle

"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 rau xà lách, salad PLATES...?
-Anna slides along the floor of the ballroom in her socks.
ANNA (CONT'D)
FOR YEARS I HAVE ROAMED THESE EMPTY HALLS
WHY HAVE A BALLROOM WITH NO BALLS?
FINALLY, THEY'RE OPENING UP THE GATES!

'CAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,

(speaking)
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 áo choàng 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)

I SUDDENLY SEE HIM STANDING THERE,
A BEAUTIFUL STRANGER TALL AND FAIR.
(mouth full of chocolate)
I WANNA STUFF SOME Sô cô la IN MY

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

furniture, and interacts with the paintings.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
ANNA (CONT'D)
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER,
THERE'LL BE MAGIC, THERE'LL BE FUN.

-INT. LIBRARY. ELSA, now a very poised 21, watches out the
window as the coronation guests arrive.
ELSA
DON'T LET THEM IN.
DON'T LET THEM SEE.
BE THE GOOD GIRL
bạn ALWAYS HAVE TO BE.
Elsa moves to a painting of her father's coronation. She
takes off her gloves and mimics the painting bởi holding a
candlestick and ornament in place of an orb and scepter.
ELSA (CONT'D)
CONCEAL. DON'T FEEL.
PUT ON A SHOW.
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.
We cut between Anna's excitement and Elsa's nerves.
ANNA
IT'S ONLY FOR TODAY!
ELSA
IT'S AGONY TO WAIT.
ANNA
IT'S AGONY TO WAIT!!!
ELSA
TELL THE GUARDS TO OPEN UP THE GATE.

ANNA (CONT'D)
I KNOW IT ALL ENDS TOMORROW,
SO IT HAS TO BE TODAY!!
`CAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
FOREVER. . .
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER!
NOTHING'S IN MY WAY!!!
-Anna SLAMS right into the breast of a HORSE!
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 thuyền and steadies it.
ANNA (CONT'D)
(frustrated)
Hey!
HANS
I'm so sorry. Are bạn hurt?
The rider, HANS, sure is handsome and regal.
ANNA
(gentler)
Hey. I-ya, no. No. I'm okay.
HANS
Are bạn 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.
18
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 thuyền tips. Hans tumbles on hàng đầu, đầu trang of Anna. Awkward.
ANNA
Hi...again.
The horse slams his foot back into the thuyền to stabilize it.
Anna and Hans tumble the other way. Anna lands on hàng đầu, đầu trang 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, bạn know...

Hello.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 thuyền 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)
Sehm hon HELL-drr IN-um HELL-gum
AYG-num ok krund ee THES-um HELL-

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 cái gối, gối before anyone notices the ice. She picks
up her gloves and slips them on. She made it.

INT. GREAT HALL -- NIGHT
Springy âm nhạc fills the Great Hall. Guests dance. Eat. Laugh.
TRUMPETS SOUND.

stands under a formal awning.
KAI (CONT'D)

Anna runs into the room, waves awkwardly. Kai ushers her over
to stand right tiếp theo to Elsa.
ANNA
Here? Are bạn sure?
She and Elsa sneak awkward peeks at each other.
ELSA
...Hi.
ANNA
Hi me...? Oh. Um. Hi.
ELSA

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 bạn 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
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
DUKE
(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 bạn 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 bạn know the
reason? Hmm?
He gets in her face, suspicious.
ANNA
...No.
23
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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
monkey...I fly.
JUMP CUT TO:
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 bạn 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.
ELSA
(sincere)
Me too....
But then Elsa catches herself. She stiffens up, looks away.
ELSA (CONT'D)
But it can't.
ANNA
Why not? If--
ELSA
It just can't.
24
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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 bởi 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.
DISSOLVE TO:
LATER: Anna and Hans drink and chat.
ANNA (CONT'D)
I often had the whole parlor to

HANS
Twelve older brothers. Three of
them pretended I was invisible...
literally...for two years.
ANNA
That's horrible.
HANS
It's what brothers do.
ANNA
...And sisters. Elsa and I were
really close when we were little.
But then, one ngày she just shut me

He takes her hand. Leans in close.

ANNA
Yes!
ELSA
I'm sorry, I'm confused.

ELSA
Wait. Slow down. No one's brothers

married.
ANNA
Wait, what?
ELSA
May I talk to you, please. Alone.
Anna sees Hans's worried face. Hooks arms with him.

No. Whatever bạn have to say, you-

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 găng tay in panic.
ELSA
Give me my glove!
Anna holds the găng tay away from Elsa.
ANNA
(desperate)
Elsa, please. Please. I can't live

Elsa fights tears.
ELSA

...Then leave.
Elsa sees Anna's hurt face. It's too much. She can't hold it

ANNA

The party goes silent as everyone watches the sisters.

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!
ELSA
(to the Duke)
Please, just stay away from me.
Stay away!
Magic accidentally shoots from her hand and turns the
staircase into ice. The thugs and the Duke fall.
DUKE
Monster.... Monster!

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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. lâu đài COURTYARD -- NIGHT
Snow falls. Hans and Anna di chuyển through the panicking crowd.
CROWD WALLAH
Snow? It's...snow...in July.

Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
HANS
...Are bạn all right?
ANNA
(in shock)
No.
HANS
Did bạn 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)
bạn 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 bạn 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
...And my sister's not a monster.
DUKE
She nearly killed me.
HANS
bạn slipped on ice.
DUKE
Her ice!
35
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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?
ANNA
(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 bạn here to take care of
Arendelle.
He sees the desperation in her eyes.
HANS
...On my honor.
She throws on the áo choàng and hops right onto the horse,
coronation dress and all.
ANNA
(to the crowd)
I leave Prince Hans in charge!
HANS
(before letting her go)
Are bạn sure bạn can trust her? I
don't want bạn 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 bạn ALWAYS HAVE TO
BE.
CONCEAL,
DON'T FEEL,
DON'T LET THEM KNOW.
WELL, NOW THEY KNOW.
Elsa takes off her găng tay 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.
37
Nữ hoàng băng giá - J. Lee
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.
