[0:02] Now, I have some plans later, so you'll

[0:05] be on your own. And do you mind having

[0:07] dinner alone tonight?

[0:10] >> After that, we can all see the show

[0:12] together

[0:12] >> on a magical Disney.

[0:13] >> Hey, aren't you glad I thought of this?

[0:15] >> Call and discover uncharted magic.

[0:18] >> How far would you go to protect me?

[0:23] We're really building a long-term

[0:25] franchise [music] here and my philosophy
