The movie begins with Barbie checking in on a group of sleeping campers in a cabin in the woods. When
she notices one bed is empty, Barbie looks up and sees that Kelly is sitting outside by herself. Barbie joins
Kelly where she’s sitting.
Barbie:
Kelly, dejected:
Barbie:
I remember my first sleep-away camp. It takes a day or two to get used to things.
Kelly:
But you were looking forward to race day tomorrow. You’re part of the team!
Kelly:

Kelly:
Barbie, pointing:
Look over there, do you see those two big stars, and the four little ones in a row?
Kelly looks where Barbie is pointing, then back at her.
Kelly:
Sort of.
Barbie:
Well, that’s the constellation Cygnus. It’s a swan. Imagine the four stars are the long neck, the big stars
are the body, and running crosswise, those stars are the wings.
As she explains the constellation, the shape of the swan is traced over the stars. The camera cuts back to
Kelly.
Kelly, surprised:
I see it!
Barbie:
Did you know there was once a girl who turned into a swan?
Kelly:
The sky changes from a starry night to a sunny day as the camera pans down to show a bustling village.
Barbie:
She worked in the family bakery with her sister and her father.
Kelly:
Barbie laughs.
Barbie:
Not at first.
The camera changes to a shot of the bakery’s exterior, showing a pair of children running up to the
window to see Odette, played by Barbie, as she places a pie in the window. She waves at them. She takes
a plate of rolls from the display and carries them into the bakery, waltzing to herself as she goes. She sets
the tray down and continues to dance around the store. She doesn’t immediately notice her father when
he walks in, carrying a plate of freshly baked cookies.
Odette:
Oh! Papa!
Baker:
Odette, you’re a wonderful dancer. You should go to the village dances with your sister.
Odette:
Baker:

Baker:
Kelly, interjecting:
Make it chocolate chip. That’s my favorite.
Barbie:
Okay.
In Odette’s hand the tray of sugar cookies magically changes to chocolate chip cookies. Odette eats one.
Odette:
Baker:
What can I do? You and Marie keep eating the inventory.
Just then, outside the window, a woman on a horse rides into town. Odette gasps as the woman’s horse
leaps over a pile of brambles and speeds down the cobblestone street before stopping outside the
bakery. Odette goes out and meets her.
Odette:
Marie:
That’s the idea! Come on, I’m heading out again—you’ll love it!
Odette:
Before Odette can finish her sentence, Marie’s horse whinnies and rears up, startling her.
Marie:
