Yes, because every time they do it, Ariel always remembers that she needs to give her shrimp dip recipe to one of her sisters, and that reminds Eric.

To try and be serious for a moment...

my guess would be, perhaps, The Lion King?

"My guess would be, perhaps, The Lion King'

Simba topped Ariel?!

And people say Disney's subliminal messages are all fake

Sorry.

Lilo is a young Hawaiian girl.

All those Hawaiians are crossbred from lions having intimate relations with mermaids, indeed.

Now, as for Stitch...

Ariel's a little nervous. She wants to try all aspects of herself, but that whale is just too much to start with....
