Although he was initially hired just to co-write the songs alongside composing partner Alan Menken, Howard Ashman became a co-producer and co-writer on the film, introducing much of its elements of romanticism and camp. At least three key scenes in their entirety have been credited to him: The scene where Sebastian takes pity on Ariel and decides to help her rather than report her, a scene with him 'tutoring' her on the art of flirting, and the dialogue between him and King Triton at the end where the king decides to set her free to become the human she's always dreamed of.
