Your friendly neighborhood Ship Captain here:
“Monster” isn’t /really/ a duet but Hans does sing a little. He sings, “No harm comes to her” as the townspeople chant on the way to the North Mountain. At the very end of the scene this (spoken) exchange happens:
Weselton: “Look at the queen! Even SHE shivers!”
Elsa: “I’m not cold...”
Hans: “She’s scared, so back off! And do NOT TEST ME ANYMORE. YOU WILL... take her in.”
Weselton: “Why do you protect her?”
Hans: “...For Anna.”
I’m so emo over “She’s scared, so back off!” because oh my god. Remember when Jen Lee said that Hans mirrors people and that with Elsa he’s a hero??? I’m E M O. And honestly it’s so cute that he’s like, “I’m doing this for Anna!!” Honestly, the musical makes Hans seem so in love with Anna, it’s the cutest thing. Y’know. Until the betrayal. (I may be a ride or die Iceburns shipper but ya’ll cannot tell me straight to my face that Hans and Anna aren’t the cutest little beans this planet has been graced with.) Also, I love that Hans bullies THE LIVING HELL out of the Duke. Because, again, that same quote by Jen Lee about Hans mirroring others and to the Duke he’s a bully.
Anyway, ya’ll want an Iceburns duet? UM, HAVE YOU CONSIDERED “COLDER BY THE MINUTE”? (BecauseIdidn’tssshhh.) But Hans and Elsa actually do sing together although not exactly to each other until the end. Hans is calling out to Elsa (he actually SINGS HER NAME A FEW TIMES I’M SCREAMING), and Elsa is reprising one of the verses from “Let It Go”. He sings to her, “Elsa, listen!” Then he sings something else, but I don’t remember what it is. Then it’s, “End this winter!” or something like that. Ugh, and then he says something else, but I don’t remember that either. Then together (after a little Kristanna bit) she sings, “I CAAAAAAAN’T” and he sings, “ELSAAAAAAAAAA!” There’s one more instance of them singing on top of one another and then I guess Hans finally catches up to her or something because they actually start speaking to one another. She tells him, “Help me!” And he goes, “Help you? After what you’ve done?”
It’s funny because “Colder By the Minute” kind of flops between Anna and Kristoff singing over each other to Hans and Elsa singing over each other so it’s a lowkey kind of quartet??? Except not because the ensemble is singing too.
In any case, that’s all my vigorous note-taking and research has dug up while things have been popping up and getting deleted. So there. Just to clear a few things up. I’m sad “Monster” isn’t actually an Iceburns duet, BUT it’s probs my favorite of the new songs I’ve heard so far. And honestly, I live each time Hans calls out to Elsa during “Colder By the Minute”.
Other than that, not much Helsa I can gather from what’s been posted so far. I was really hoping for more since Hyperion cut the ONE Helsa scene (THANKS FOR NOTHING BUT IT’S OK ‘CAUSE MY FAVS STILL GOT ME AND SLIDE IN ALL THE ICEBURNS THEY CAN THANKS BROS), but it’s ok I’ll live I guess~
