Triton: "Ariel, How many times must we go through this? You could've been seen by one of those barbarians by by one of those humans!"
Ariel: "Daddy, they're not barbarians!"
Triton: "They're dangerous; do you think I would want to see my youngest daughter snared by some fish eater's hook?"
Ariel: "I'm sixteen years old. I'm not a child anymore."
Triton: "Don't you take that tone of voice with me, young lady. As long as you live under my ocean, you'll obey my rules!"
Ariel: "But if you would just listen."
Triton: "Not another word! And I am never, never to hear of you going to the surface again. Is that clear?"
