SIDE

MOANA

Is that story really true, Gramma? About Te Kà„'s poison reaching Motonui?

GRAMMA TALA

You'll see. One day, the Heart of Te Fiti will be found... by someone who will venture far beyond our reef and save us all.

(CHIEF TUI and SINA enter.)

CHIEF TUI

Mother, what stories are you telling Moana now?

GRAMMA TALA

Oh, hush. You might be the Chief, Son, but I'm still your mother!

(GRAMMA TALA exits.)

MOANA

Dad, what if the answers to Motonui's problems are out there?

(CHIEF TUI and SINA pull MOANA back to the village.) (VILLAGERS re-enter.)

CHIEF TUI

Moana, you are the future of our people. And they are not out in the ocean. They're right here.

SINA

One day soon, they'll all depend on you.

CHIEF TUI

It's time to be who they need you to be.

MOANA

(realizing)

I need to be who they need me to be.
