[music] The underdog. Long ago in the kingdom of Basque lived the prince Augustine. And well that person.
[music] [music] >> Gentlemen, commanders, soldiers, we could not have won this war without your courage, your intelligence. >> What courage, your highness? By attacking the enemy's armory, you made us win without a single sword [music] being used.
Your intelligence will go down in history. Don't forget that even enemy soldiers have every right to fight for their country. Their lives are as precious [music] as ours.
>> Hail Augustine. >> Hail Austinine. and to present the victory sash to all our commanders.
Alex, go. Uh, yes, sir. What are you doing?
Go. [music] [music] It's all right, father. You're actually crying.
I I am sorry. I'm just so happy that we won. You're so clumsy.
I should have never uh Your Highness, be gentle with him, Rivor. Yes, your highness. [music] Alex, take this coat to the prince and don't be clumsy.
Why do you send the clumsy man to the prince? The prince asked me not to fire him. Your coat.
I mean your highness. Sorry, your your coat. Relax.
Just call me prince. Thank you. Do you know what is happening in the palace today?
People are coming from other kingdoms. Yes. To honor father because ours is officially the largest kingdom on the continent.
I I know. Which shoes do I wear with this? The black ones or the golden ones?
[music] A prince should wear golden. But the black ones look better, don't you think? But do wear the golden headgear.
Ah, so you were thinking of the entire outfit. Yes. Then the golden shoes do look better.
Thank you. The prince thanks me. And here's to our friendship, Bastile and Macedonia.
You give us your milk and we give you our corn. We will decide on it in our trade agreement. >> What are you doing?
>> Trying to see. This is made of corn. That is corn.
And this is made of milk. And this and the cream on this. And the custard here.
And the butter and cheese. And that tart bread and corn from corn and all this from milk. [music] >> Equal amount of corn and milk is not fair trade, your highness.
>> Why not? They are available at the same price. >> It is about their value.
After getting them, we will have to renegotiate the terms of the treaty. Well, my son is right. you, your highness.
If you were out camping, where would you go? Where cubs are not disturbed by my presence? What?
Augustine, come on. We're waiting for you. Coming.
The prince asked me. >> But he didn't invite you. >> So what?
We can spend the night in this cave. Yep. Hey, are you sure that cave is safe?
Any footprints? Cubs we should be careful about? No, there's nothing at the entrance.
Wait, is that a tiger footprint? Look there inside where the pool is. Their mother would have eaten us alive literally because our prince will not hunt.
Which rightthinking prince would hunt his own subjects? Let's find another site to camp. What is the matter?
One of the horses. He seems really sick. How can I help?
Stay with the beast while I get the doctor. He is well now. You called me on time.
Alex. Alex, take this trolley to the king's chambers now. Yes, sir.
Yes, sir. What is this? How dare you walk into my chambers like this?
Sorry, sir. I am sorry. Alex, you're fired.
But the prince said that he didn't want me fired. But now the king is annoyed with you. Go.
I am sorry. [music] The prince is here. If you tell him, he will ensure I don't get fired.
He knows me. He asked me to call him Prince. Hello, Henry.
Here you go, buddy. You had a good excursion, sire. Yes.
Thank you. Your highness, Alex helped me take care of one of the horses who had become really sick. He was here the whole night and [music] poor thing, he got fired because of that.
Alex? Alex? Who?
He says you asked him to call you Prince. A lot of people call me Prince Henry, your highness. Whoever Alex is, give him a job with you.
Take care, buddy. Look after him. He didn't even know my name.
Of course, he didn't know my name. What was I thinking, Alex? He asked me which shoes he should wear.
He wore the ones I suggested. He even stopped to speak to me. Asked me where I would camp.
And I thought he saw me. Of course, he didn't. Alex, he is the prince.
He has so much more to remember. And I am a nobody. Too clumsy to be a butler.
Too weak to be a soldier. Just nobody. But the prince gave you a job in the stables.
No. I'm sure I shall get fired from here, too. I don't want this job.
Thank you. Alex. Alex.
Nobody is nobody. All of us mean something to someone. [music] Ask this horse who you looked after all night.
what your presence here meant to it. Take care of him. Goodbye.
A year passed by. Alex kept doing odd jobs [music] in the kingdom. In that year, the kingdom of Bastile earned a fortune because of the milk they were selling to Macedonia.
And not just milk. Bastile was making creams and pudding and butter and selling it to other kingdoms, [music] too. The people of Bastile decided to celebrate their prosperity.
Hey you, we need more hands for the stage. Come on here. What is going on?
Why are we building this stage? Don't you know? The king and prince are coming here to celebrate the fortune we have made this year.
I have to go. >> You behave as though you are angry with the king and prince. >> Whatever.
I'm going. Hey, you don't you dare leave the job half done. Nobody is leaving this place until after the festivities are over.
Got it. >> People of our kingdom, it is your hard work that has made us perhaps the richest kingdom in the continent. Your work and your prince's brilliance.
Come, my son. They all want you to speak with them. This idea of valuing our vast milk [music] produce as not just milk but as butter, cream, custard, desserts came to me one night as I was passing by the kitchen.
I saw a table on which all these items were laid besides just two items made of corn, the corn cob and bread. That showed me what we could do with milk. [music] And that showed me something far more important.
It is not who we are that is valuable. It is what we choose to make of ourselves that [music] matters. And you have shown the world the successful progressive people you have chosen to become.
[music] >> Hail Prince Augustine. >> Hail Prince Augustine. >> Alex, that was I in the kitchen.
He didn't see me, but he saw what you showed him. All this wealth is you, Alex. You matter whether or not people around you notice.
I matter. I matter. I matter.
The prince may not have noticed Alex, but so what? Alex's love, concern, and loyalty for his motherland made him matter, whether or not anyone knew it. [music] We all matter, even if we don't know it yet.
