Beauty Marked

Episode Summary

Sam can barely contain her contempt for the "Miss Teenage Happy Princess" beauty pageant and its organizer, Dora Mattingly, when they descend on Casper High. She decides to enter the contest to make a statement about individuality, but makes a discovery instead: Dora Mattingly is the Dragon Ghost! Before she can get to the bottom of the mystery, she's inadvertently crowned Miss Teenage Happy Princess by its happy-go-lucky judge... Danny Fenton! When the tiara is placed on Sam's head, it magically transports her to a castle in the Ghost Zone, where she learns she's to be the bride of Dora's brother, the ghostly Prince Aragon. As Danny and Tucker head into the Ghost Zone to rescue Sam, she does her best to shake things up in the medieval ghost world she's stuck in.moreless

*gasp* Sam entered a 'Miss Teenage Happy Princess Beauty Pagent'! That sounds nothing like her! *cough she-wanted-Danny's-attention-deep-down cough* Yeah, of course it was all just to "make a statement". I loved how Danny chose her in the end and they walked off arm-in-arm. AW! That scene rocked! And I'm glad Danny didn't get beat up by the jealous candidates in the end- Tucker could use some excersise. And in this ep, Danny literally was Sam's 'knight in shinning armor'. But it also had girl power- go Dora! I loved the dragon fight and the animation ruled! And Danny actually split himself in two! :)moreless

When I first heard about this episode, I didn't really think it would be good, but boy was I wrong! This episode was fantastic! My favorite part would have to be when Sam and Paulina are doing each others makeup and then they get mad and throw a fit when they see what they look like. My other favorite part was when Danny was fighting Prince Aragon. I'm not usually one to say this, but I must say that Danny looked awfully hot in that medieval outfit he was wearing!!! I can't wait to see other episodes like this one.moreless

I like this episode particularly because of Sam trying to prove to everyone that women should think for themselves and not be afraid to be there own individual selves. Throughout the beauty show " training " Sam refuses to give in to what they said a girl should be, believing that a girl should be cherished for their individual mind. And through keeping her ideals, she helped Doloras to find the courage to think for herself and to stand up to her spoiled and evil brother.moreless

Danny is chosen to be the judge of the "Happy Teen Princess Beauty Pageant" and accidentally picks Sam during the pageant. Unfortunately, the pageant is a ruse formed by the Dragon Ghost, Dora, to select a teen bride for her ghostly dragon brother, Eragonmoreless

This was an awesome episode, though I missed a few seconds of the beginning. But that's okay, it was awesome. I think that the beginning and Danny's ghost battles was a little rushed.And I think I saw Danny become two for a split second, or he was just split in two by the axe. Anyway, the entire idea was so cool. But they ruined the Dragon Ghost's character. She doesn't sound waily anymore, she can turn into the dragon wheneve she wants, and I don't think she was a princess before. I think the DP peoplejust made her a princess out of nowhere. Anyway, this episode was still cool, it really pointed out the pressures of teenage women in our society, to be thin, pretty, and perfect. And also how Dora was controlled by her brother because she was a princess. It was so sad but cool in the end. And Prince Eragon, the Amulet of Eragon, see it. Maye he made the amulet. Anyway, the Prince was pretty cool, though I don't get why he had to have a human bride. Anyway, again, this episode was awesome. Great plot, fights, and Dora and Eragon were so cool. I loved this episode. Definetly one of the bests, way to go Butch.moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- In "Prisoners of Love," Sam and Tucker encounter Dora while looking for Danny in the Ghost Zone. Shouldn't they have recognized her as a ghost when they saw her again in this episode? Edit
- Considering Sam's hair is only chin length, she somehow puts it in pig tails it is pretty long. Edit
- Two ghosts phase through the wall and drop the dress over Sam. They should not have been able to phase through the wall, since things like that in the Ghost Zone are solid to ghosts. Edit
Notes
ADD NOTES
- Title Picture: Prince Aragon (in his dragon form) has Danny and Sam trapped in his mouth. Edit
- Look Closely: When Paulina and Star were playing Rocks, Paper, Scissors. Paulina had paper, and Star had rock, and Star said that she won, but paper coves rock and Paulina should have won. This could, however, be a sign of their limited intelligence. Edit
- According to Dora (while she's battling Aragon in her dragon form), she has been doing Aragon's bidding and suffering his insults for 1600 years. Edit

- (While Sam's spitting watermellon seeds everywhere at the wedding banquet) Prince Aragon: (Shielding himself) Dorathea! What is the meaning of this? Dora: (Nervous) Uh, pre-wedding jitters? (Sam belches in Aragon's face) Edit
- (While Dora watches Danny is being picked up by two girls through her ring) Dora:(To Prince Aragon in the ring) You see? The boy is distracted. The ring masks me from his ghost sense. He suspects nothing! Prince Aragon: Which is more than I can say for the girl. Perhaps next time, you should walk up to her and scream: "I'm a ghost!" (The ring shows Dora loosing control of her dragon form while Sam is unknowingly watching.) Dora: (Frightened) Please...please forgive me, brother. I didn't think- Prince Aragon: (Angrily) You're not supposed to think! You're supposed to keep her away from the ghost boy until showtime. So, do it! Edit
- (While shooting at the Ghost Archer) Danny: Dude, you're seriously cutting into my very limited: 'girls are flirting with me' time! Edit
Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Prince Aragon Name: The name Aragon is an allusion to the book "Eragon" about a boy who learns that he is a dragon rider. Edit
- Episode Title: Beauty Marked "Beauty Marked" is a reference to the name given to a facial mole known as a "beauty mark". Edit
- Dinner Scene: Atmosphere This is a reference to the movie Tim Burton's Corpse Bride. The scene that the episode has made a spoof off of was the wedding feast scene after Victoria had just married the villain, Lord Barkis Bittern. During the dinner scene, every person at the table wasn't eating their food, wasn't talking, and wasn't even really festive. After a few moments, Lord Barkis acted as though the room was loud and the people were chattering freely, just like Prince Aragon shouted "Enough merrymaking!" Probably the main point in both scenes was an example of irony. Edit
