This is best shown in what I call Peter's war whoop! If you remember The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, at the last battle Peter yells, "For Narnia and for Aslan!" In the first battle Peter just yells, "For Narnia!" I love how he comes full circle in the last battle yelling, "For Aslan!"

I Had it Sorted Back to the scene after Peter's fight with the bullies is broken up. Edmund sarcastically says to Peter, "You're welcome!" to which Peter retorts, "I had it it sorted." My wife asked me later what that meant and I can only think that it's one of the English sayings that needs translating into American. I think it means, "I had it under control," which is actually funny because he didn't. I'm not just referring to the fight, because Peter pretty much had nothing sorted in the entire movie.

We talked a bit about the failed attempt to take the castle; but what about the others? He got them all lost on the way to meet Prince Caspian. He couldn't best Prince Caspian in their introductory sword fight. He almost gets bewitched by the White Witch, prompting Edmund to throw his "I had it sorted" saying right back at him. You get the picture... High King Peter wasn't so Magnificent in this movie.

He did turn it around, though. In the last battle, he starts to listen to those around him rather than being a dictator. He lets Lucy go find Aslan. He listens to Caspian's plan to fight King Miraz one on one. He finally did get it sorted, by realizing that he didn't have it sorted and needed the help of those around him. This is a big lesson for any leader.

I'm sad to see that Susan and Peter will no longer be able to come back to Narnia. I knew this from reading the books, but it became very poignant for me in the last scenes. I'm not sure what lessons Susan takes with her, but Peter's journey is one that mirrors the proverb quoted above. I don't think our journeys are too far off.
