Trivia: Who encourages Prince Eric to “kiss the girl” in “The Little Mermaid”?
Scuttle
Sebastian
Flounder
King Triton
The correct answer is Sebastian
So why is this answer correct? : In 1989’s “The Little Mermaid,” Ariel agrees to give the sea witch Ursula her voice, in exchange for Ursula turning her into a human (with legs) for three days. If her true love, Prince Eric, doesn’t kiss her in that time, Ariel will be bound to Ursula forever. Since Ariel can’t simply ask Eric to kiss her, her crab friend, Sebastian, tries to orchestrate a romantic setup and sings “Kiss the Girl” to get Eric to make a move before it’s too late. Howard Ashman and Alan Menken wrote the song, and Samuel Wright performed it in the film.
