[Mulan runs into a tent and stops. Yao, Ling, and Chien-Po (in that order) run through the tent. Yao stops short as he is about to run into asoldier in a line for food. He looks behind him with concerned eyes as Ling stops in time. Chien-Po bumps into Ling causing the entire lineof soldiers to fall forward and knock over the pot of congee and the cook behind it. The men look to the back of the line and spy Mulan whohas emerged from the tent. They angrily start walking towards her. Mulan has a look of horror on her face as if trouble is about to brew]
