Cinderella: A Twist In Time/Transcript

"Perfectly Perfect"
Cinderella: Do you remember the story of a girl who lived a life of Cinders, and how she found true love because she kept a beautiful dream in her heart? *Giggles* Of course it helped that she had mouse friends who could sew and a Fairy Godmother who could do wonders with pumpkins. Well, that girl was ME, and in case you're wondering, that was only the FIRST half of the story!

Cinderella: ♪What a perfectly perfect life♪

♪It's a fairytale come true♪

♪I'm a princess and a wife♪

♪All because I fit a shoe♪

♪When I dreamed of love, who would've guessed I'd end up here?♪

♪At the end of a perfectly perfect year!♪

Kit: Would my perfectly perfect wife put on her perfectly fitting shoes?

* Kit starts playing 'keep away' with the shoes*

Kit: Better hurry; Fairy Godmother's waiting!

Cinderella: *laughs* What have the mice been using them for this time?

Kit: *pours some water out* Boats.

* Cinderella laughs*

Kit (putting Cinderella's shoes back on): There.

* Cinderella and Kit head outside to mount their horses

Cinderella: ♪What a wonderfully perfectly perfect year!♪

Anastasia: ♪Why do we have to do the chores?♪

Drizella: ♪I would rather rot in jail♪

Anastasia: ♪Washing dishes and scrubbing floors♪

Drizella: ♪Oh, that's just great, I broke a nail!♪

Anastasia and Drizella: ♪Cinderella's in the palace, living the life of luxury♪

♪And not once have we been invited to a ball♪

Drizella: ♪Or even tea♪

Anastasia: ♪''Why don't I get no happy ending? Where's the prince who marries me?♪''

Anastasia and Drizella: ♪When will this horrible nightmare disappear?!♪

Lady Tremaine: Pathetic.

Anastasia and Drizella: ♪Oh, what a perfectly miserably awful year!♪

* Anastasia is kicked out of the house*

Anastasia: ♪Somewhere there must be someone who loves me♪

♪He'll show me a world that I never knew♪

♪He'll ask for my hand and I'll say I do'♪

♪Oh wouldn't it be finer than fine♪

♪If that perfectly perfect love were mine♪

* Cinderella pulls the horse to a halt and looks a little worse for wear about her two stepsisters, Anastasia and Drizella*

Cinderella: I'm just a little worried.

Kit: About what?

Cinderella: My two stepsisters; Anastasia and Drizella...They've never been allowed to think for themselves...and I don't think they've ever really been all that jealous of me.

Kit: Oh, yes...Part of me honestly feels the same way.

Cinderella: ♪Well if I found out they had run away, of course I'd lend a hand.♪

♪I know they're just puppets on their mother's strings, and they know only too well who I am.♪

♪Well, I've been there and I know what's she's done to them; I've seen it with my own two eyes♪

♪For cruelty and greed is all she's ever believed in, and it's all been a pack of lies♪

♪''Well, I remember. Yes, I remember, don't worry. How could I ever forget?♪''

♪That fateful morning a year ago was the last time that we ever met.♪

♪''I know the reason why they've had to keep their silence up. It doesn't full me.♪''

♪''Their hurt doesn't show, but their pain still grows. It's no stranger to you and me.♪''

Kit: Don't worry, I'm sure that in the future there'll be some opportunity to reconnect with them.

Cinderella: I sure hope so. The time will come...eventually. But let's not worry about that too much for the moment.

Kit: Of course, not. Let us begin our celebration!

* Cinderella and the Prince continue on their way to their wedding anniversary as Anastasia continues clambering through the forest*

Fairy Godmother: He's a perfectly charming prince

She's a charmingly perfect lass

Jaq: They live happily since she fit the slipper

Gus: Made of glass

Fairy Godmother: Take your places everyone

The time is drawing near...to celebrate

Fairy Godmother, Jaq and Gus: A perfectly perfect year!

Jaq and Gus: A perfect anniversary party that we planned for you

Fairy Godmother: And I'll throw in some magic with a bibbidi bobbidi boo

Fairy Godmother, Jaq and Gus: 'On this perfectly perfect day, there is magic in the air

Anastasia: Gee, I wonder if that old lady has some wand that she can spare

Cinderella and Kit: What could ever come between us?

Anastasia: I would gladly volunteer

Fairy Godmother: And as for the future well it's perfectly clear

Cinderella: It's sure to be another magically...

Anastasia: In our case, tragically...

* Anastasia falls off*

All: Perfectly perfect year!

Anastasia: Perfect!

Returning With The Prince
 Lady Tremaine: *grabs Anastasia by the shoulders* You *do* want the Prince to love you, don't you?!

 Anastasia (in tears): Yes, more than anything.

 Lady Tremaine: *grabs Anastasia's face*  Well, stop crying!

 Anastasia: But...I have the right to have concern for Cinderella!

 Lady Tremaine (shaking Anastasia violently): You have NO right to sympathize with her; her talk of courage and kindness is all WORTHLESS!

 Anastasia: But...I only want someone to love me for who I AM! And the Prince doesn't truly LOVE me!

 Lady Tremaine (voice rising): I'M NOT LISTENING, ANASTASIA!

 Anastasia: I'm not even sure if I truly love...HIM!

 Lady Tremaine: WELL, YOU SHOULD!!

 Anastasia (breaking down further): PLEASE, MOTHER, LISTEN TO ME!

 Lady Tremaine (screaming at the top of her lungs): STOP CRYING!!!

* Lady Tremaine slowly and painfully rubs Anastasia's tears away, which causes her to develop an involuntary eye twitch. She then tightly locks her hands around Anastasia's head*

Lady Tremaine (through gritted teeth): STOP IT! *Lets go of Anastasia's head and grabs her by the shoulders again* Now, you listen to me, Anastasia Tremaine. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, stop sympathizing with Cinderella and bury your feelings deep down. If you want someone to love you, then do exactly as I say, Anastasia, because my way is the *only* way. This is your *very* last chance. Do you understand?

 Anastasia (twitching continuously): Yes, Mother.

 Lady Tremaine: I sincerely hope so. *Pulls the wand out* Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!

* Lady Tremaine and her daughters teleport into hiding just as the guards burst into the bedroom. We then cross over to Cinderella and the Prince reuniting with the King*

Mercy for Anastasia
King: Using magic on MY SON! THE NERVE!

Grand Duke: Your Majesty, we've gone over every inch of this castle, and there's no sign of them!

King (panicking): Well then, double your search and examine every corner of this Kingdom! I want them brought into custody as soon as they're found!

(Cinderella and the Prince help the King back onto the table)

Cinderella: Your Majesty, I think we should all just relax.

Kit: Please don't worry, Dad. This is the girl I intend to marry. The stars are shining brighter, just like you said.

King (excitedly): Well, don't just stand there. Get everything ready! Call in the florists, bake an even bigger cake, and give her an even better dress! THE WEDDING IS ON TONIGHT!

Cinderella: The sooner, the merrier!

King: Absolutely!

Cinderella: But, Your Majesty, may I ask something of you?

King: *calms down* Something wrong, Cinderella?

Cinderella: I'm just worried for my stepsister...Anastasia.

King: The daughter of that...woman who used magic on MY SON?!

Cinderella: I'm afraid so, Sire. I really don't think she's entirely responsible for all of this. It is mainly my stepmother's doing, to be fair. I think Anastasia's just been forced to marry Kit to satisfy her mother's own selfish desires, and she's also been tempted by her empty promises of true love. I'm not sure whether or not she truly loves you, Kit, but I really don't think she wants power. She probably just wants a life of love, because she's also been abused. I've sadly witnessed it myself on a number of occasions, but haven't been able to do anything to protect her. If we should manage to find my stepfamily, could we please give Anastasia a more lenient punishment?

King: We can do so, because I don't believe she could possibly have been fully responsible for this episode.

Cinderella: Thank you, Your Majesty.

One Final Attempt...
* Cinderella is in front of the mirror getting ready for her wedding when she hears her stepmother's voice*

Lady Tremaine: My, don't you look lovely?

Cinderella (shuddered): Stepmother?

* Lady Tremaine and Lucifer emerge from the shadows*

Lady Tremaine: It would appear you were right, Cinderella. The Prince DOES truly want to marry you. And marry you he WILL. Anastasia?

* Anastasia starts to come out*

Lady Tremaine: Anastasia, come out here at once! Or should I say....CINDERELLA?

* Cinderella recoils in horror*

Cinderella: What have you done to her, Stepmother?! The Prince can't be fooled.

Lady Tremaine: The Prince will never know. He will be perfectly happy. And might I add this; I ALREADY had a feeling you were the girl who went to the ball even before you made the happy mistake of singing that song! I saw your face was familiar, so I think that had you just kept a lower profile, all I would've needed to do was take a *closer* look at you.

Cinderella: So...even if I HADN'T been so careless, you would've just found out anyway?!

Lady Tremaine: Indeed, I would. And might I add we have come from the FUTURE!

Cinderella: You mean you've used the wand to TURN BACK THE HANDS OF TIME?!

Lady Tremaine: ABSOLUTELY. You and the Prince were ALREADY in love, and I also had to push my two poor daughters through all the housework as well as advancing my efforts to marry them for more financial stability. But poor Anastasia found your Fairy Godmother's wand, and might I add, she brought it to me, because she thought it would answer to all our prayers! And so I unravelled your happy ending to the moment you and your Fairy Godmother STARTED OUR TROUBLES!!! And might I add...I TURNED HER INTO A STATUE SO SHE COULDN'T INTERFERE!!!

* Cinderella recoils again*

Lady Tremaine: Oh, and in case you haven't already guessed, I enlarged your second glass slipper to fit Anastasia's foot before you and your animal friends started interfering!

Cinderella (visibly angered): Well, I pretty much figured that out anyway! But how can you KNOW this is what she really wants?! She's never had what I had!

Lady Tremaine: SHUT UP, CINDERELLA! And stop trying to brainwash her.

Cinderella: I'm not trying to brainwash ANYONE, Stepmother.

Lady Tremaine: You can say whatever you want, Cinderella. I don't care anymore.

Cinderella: But, Anastasia, are you sure? Is this what you *really* want?

Anastasia: I...want what you had.

Cinderella: But...Are you sure you truly love him?

Anastasia: I...

Lady Tremaine: *shoves Anastasia aside* SHE'S TRYNG TO BRAINWASH YOU AGAIN, ANASTASIA! LOOK WHERE 'TRUE LOVE' HAS GOTTEN  YOU, Cinderella!

* She transports Cinderella, along with Jaq and Gus into the warped pumpkin carriage*

The Wrath of Lady Tremaine
* Cinderella returns to the wedding, only to find, to her amazement, Anastasia refusing to marry the Prince, which sends Lady Tremaine into a fury)

Anastasia (vehemently): I... *Turns to Cinderella and looks her dead in the eyes* I...DON'T.

Cinderella (amazed): Anastasia?!

* Anastasia and Kit sharply pull their hands away from each other*

Anastasia: Cinderella, I'm sorry...I...just couldn't go through with this, because I only want someone to love me...for MYSELF.

Cinderella: And that's what you were trying to tell me before, isn't it?

Anastasia: I'm afraid so.

* Lady Tremaine and Drizella emerge, clearly angered by Anastasia's sudden conscience*

Lady Tremaine: You spoilt, ungrateful woman! I've given you everything you've ever wanted, Anastasia!

Anastasia: But you don't understand, I only want someone to love me for ME! Not as someone else! It's wrong, mother!

Cinderella: I agree, Anastasia.

Lady Tremaine: Now you're in trouble, my dear!

King: Guards, seize that woman!

* The King's guards rush towards the Tremaine family to arrest them as Lady Tremaine points the wand to the ceiling and decides to take the Kingdom by force*

Lady Tremaine: Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!

* Lady Tremaine creates a whirling vortex of evil magic and begins turning the guards into farm animals, before turning her wrath onto Anastasia*

Lady Tremaine: And now for you, Anastasia!

Drizella: Turn her into a toad, mother!

* Clearly angered and horrified by Lady Tremaine's ruthlessness, Cinderella desperately steps in to protect Anastasia*

Cinderella: Leave her alone, Stepmother! She only wants someone to love her for who she is!

Lady Tremaine: Ugh, even better!

Drizella: Turn 'em both into toads, mom!

* Kit then runs in front of Cinderella and Anastasia, only for Tremaine to aim the wand at him as well*

Lady Tremaine: Oh, even better than that! You will also pay for going against me, Kit!

* The King and Grand Duke then get up and run in front of Lady Tremaine's three captives*

Cinderella: Your Majesty, stay out of this, please, for your own good!

King: If your Stepmother is going to attack my son, then I would rather die WITH him, Cinderella!

Lady Tremaine (burst of rage): ANYTHING TO GET YOU OFF THIS THRONE!

Cinderella (whispering in horror): WHAT?!

* Lady Tremaine flies into an uncontrollable fury as she starts screaming at her captives en masse*

'''Lady Tremaine: YOU ARE A TRAITOR, ANASTASIA TREMAINE! DRIZELLA AND I HAVE GIVEN YOU EVERYTHING YOU COULD EVER WISH FOR; BEAUTY, RICHES AND POWER, AND YOU HAVE THROWN IT ALL BACK IN OUR FACES! EVERY SINGLE THING I HAVE EVER DONE SINCE YOU AND DRIZELLA WERE BORN HAS BEEN FOR YOU, AND YOU ALONE!'''

Anastasia: Everything?! Well I sincerely doubt that. You killed my father, didn't you?

Lady Tremaine: I DISPOSED OF YOUR UNGRATEFUL FATHER BECAUSE HE WAS A BURDEN TO YOU AND DRIZELLA!

Cinderella: But your first husband was probably the only person who's ever truly loved Anastasia!

'''Lady Tremaine: WELL HE DIDN'T BELIEVE GREED AND AMBITION ARE GOOD! AND I DID THE EXACT SAME THING TO YOUR FATHER, CINDERELLA, AND YOUR MOTHER AS WELL, SO WE COULD HAVE FREE LABOR TO KEEP OUR CHÂTEAU SPOTLESS SO THE ROYAL FAMILY WOULD SEE US AS EVEN BETTER ARISTOCRATS! I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT I POISONED ALL OF THEM TO MAKE THEIR DEATHS AS SLOW AND PAINFUL AS I COULD!'''

* A terrifying flashback sequence begins showing Anastasia and Drizella's late father, along with the deaths of Cinderella's parents, and the beginning of Tremaine's abuse towards the three of her daughters*

Anastasia: SO YOU COULD MAKE IT LOOK AS THOUGH THEY DIED NATURALLY?!

'''LADY TREMAINE: INDEED! I'VE DONE ALL OF THIS TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE POWER, ANASTASIA, AND YOU'VE DECIDED TO REPAY ME LIKE THIS?!'''

* Cinderella and Anastasia recoil in horror*

Anastasia: I can't go along with you anymore, Mother, because I have learnt the TRUE meaning of love!

Cinderella: And she refused to marry Kit because we both know that you've only tried to have her married to royalty to quench your thirst for power, and that you won't give up a single thing for Anastasia; no wonder you pushed her and Drizella through all that hard labour in my absence! That's not true love!

Anastasia: I wanted your approval all my life, Mother.

Cinderella: Yes, you did, Anastasia, but she now knows that nothing she does will ever be good enough for you!

Anastasia: And all you want above all else is power! You don't truly care about ANY of us!

Lady Tremaine (bigger burst of an anger): YOU LIAR!

* Lady Tremaine's captives helplessly stumble backwards*

'''Lady Tremaine: AND YOU CAN GET RID OF THAT STUPID LITTLE EYE TWITCH! KEEP 'EM WIDE OPEN WITH TERROR, ANASTASIA!'''

Cinderella (growing even more horrified): What? *stumbles over her words* Where did she get that twitch from?!

Lady Tremaine: She had the audacity to weep that the Prince couldn't give her this '''USELESS, FUTILE, LITTLE FEELING CALLED LOVE! I TOLD HER, QUITE RIGHTLY, TO STOP CRYING, AND TO JUST GROW THE HELL UP AND MARRY THE PRINCE SO I COULD GAIN ACCESS TO THE CASTLE, CINDERELLA! AND JUST TO MAKE SURE SHE NEVER HAD THE AUDACITY TO BLUB LIKE SOME SILLY LITTLE GIRL, I RUBBED MY THUMBS ACROSS HER EYES, SO THOSE SELFISH, INFANTILE LITTLE TEARS WERE ERASED FROM HER FACE!'''

* Cinderella gasps again*

Cinderella (indignant): How could you do this to your OWN DAUGHTER?!

Lady Tremaine: '''BECAUSE YOU AND ANASTASIA JUST HAD TO WEAPONIZE THIS PARASITE CALLED LOVE! AND YOUR KINGDOM ISN'T SAFE, EITHER, YOUR MAJESTY; I DON'T EVEN NEED TO BE RELATED TO YOU; I HAVE MAGIC; THE ULTIMATE POWER, SO I CAN STILL RULE THIS KINGDOM!'''

Cinderella: So that's the only reason you married Anastasia and Drizella's father in the first place, isn't it?!

'''Lady Tremaine: YES IT IS, CINDERELLA! GREED, AMBITION, ANGER AND LUST! YOU ALL UNDERESTIMATE THOSE TRAITS! AND...MIGHT I ADD...MY OWN PARENTS TAUGHT ME THAT!'''

Anastasia: You were *brought up* to believe in those horrible traits?!

'''Lady Tremaine: ABSOLUTELY, AND ONCE I WAS IN MY EARLY 20'S, I DECIDED TO BREAK OFF TIES WITH THEM TO MARRY A RICH ARISTOCRAT IN THE FORM OF YOUR FATHER, ANASTASIA, BECAUSE THEIR TEACHINGS HAD TAKEN TOO BIG A TOLL ON US FINANCIALLY, SO ALL I COULD DO WAS DITCH THEM! I MUSTERED ALL THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES I HAD LEFT TO MARRY HIM SO I COULD KEEP MY AMBITIONS ALIVE!'''

Cinderella: A lust for power, and a desire to ruin the lives of your own daughters, along with the fact that you killed all our other parents; that's enough to drive anyone insane. But it's WORSE than that! You're worse than even your own parents, Lady Tremaine!

Lady Tremaine: IF I AM, THEN I'M PROUD OF IT!

Cinderella: So your promise of me having a mother's love after I lost my biological mother, and Anastasia having true love and beauty...It's all been a PACK OF LIES!

'Lady Tremaine: OF COURSE'' IT HAS! LYING AND DECEIT ALWAYS WORKS WONDERS! *lowers her voice to an ominous whisper* And as for you, Drizella... *after a brief pause, she continuous screaming at the top of her lungs* ...I DON'T NEED YOU ANYMORE! BIBBIDI-BOBBIDI-BOO!'''

* Lady Tremaine turns Drizella into a toad, and Cinderella and Anastasia can only watch in horror, unable to intervene as Lady Tremaine's face begins glowing white with rage. The rage-induced magic spills out through the Chapel entrance and bell tower and into the sky and starts a violent thunderstorm, as panic breaks out in the nearby village*

Anastasia: Drizella, NO!

'''Lady Tremaine: SHE WASN'T WORTH BRINGING ALONG ANYWAY; SHE ISN'T AS PATHETICALLY LOVESICK AS YOU ARE, ANASTASIA! AND THERE'S A FEW OTHER USELESS BEINGS I NO LONGER NEED!'''

* Lady Tremaine uses the wand to teleport Lucifer out of the woods and into the chapel, before doing the same to Cinderella's other mouse and bird friends, along with her dog Bruno and her horse Major, and then uses the wand to seal the entrance to the chapel*

Anastasia: Lucifer?!

Cinderella: Bruno?! Major?! What have you done to them?!

'''Lady Tremaine: NO-ONE IS LEAVING THIS WEDDING! AND JUST TO SEE THIS THROUGH COMPLETELY, I'VE DECIDED TO FINISH OFF YOUR STUPID LITTLE ANIMAL FRIENDS; BECAUSE I KNOW HOW USEFUL THEY WERE TO YOU FINDING YOUR HAPPILY EVER AFTER AND SLOWING ME DOWN, AND I NOW REALIZE THAT EVERYONE IS USELESS TO ME!'''

Cinderella: So this has all been to seize this Kingdom...All these years? Even before your OWN DAUGHTERS were born? It's all been about YOU, Lady Tremaine? Frankly, I can't even call you 'STEP-mother' anymore, let alone 'MOTHER'.

Lady Tremaine (smugly): INDEED. You finding Fairy Godmother's wand was a VERY happy mistake for me, Anastasia...Or, at least I thought it was, anyway!

Anastasia: And I'm afraid YOU were wrong, mother! I turned her into a statue myself, Cinderella. It was just an accident though, and I only took it because I wanted love!

Cinderella: *turns to Anastasia* Oh, Anastasia...I'm sorry to hear that. *turns back to Lady Tremaine* Anastasia taking the wand probably wasn't the best thought-out decision on her end, *lowers her voice to a more heated undertone* but we both know who's REALLY responsible for all of this.

Lady Tremaine: Indeed, you do. *returns to screaming* 'AND EVEN IF YOU HADN'T'' WANDERED OFF FROM DOING YOUR CHORES LIKE YOU DID BEFORE I TRIED TO UNRAVEL ALL MY TROUBLES, ANASTASIA, I CAN ASSURE YOU, AND YOU, CINDERELLA, THAT I WOULD HAVE EVENTUALLY GONE LOOKING FOR THIS WAND *MYSELF*! FROM THE MOMENT I DISCOVERED YOU WERE THE MYSTERIOUS PRINCESS AT THE BALL, I KNEW THAT MAGIC WAS ONE OF THE POSSIBLE CAUSES OF YOU BEING ABLE TO THRUST THIS YEAR OF HINDRANCE UPON ME, CINDERELLA, NOT TO MENTION YOU, ANASTASIA, DARING TO DISOBEY ME NOW! AND YOU TAKING THE WAND YOURSELF WAS JUST ANOTHER HINDRANCE! YOU MANAGED TO DECEIVE ME INTO THINKING YOU COULD TRULY HELP ME...WHEN ALL YOUR LOVESICKNESS HAS REALLY DONE IS SLOW ME DOWN EVEN MORE, WHEN I COULD HAVE JUST SOUGHT OUT THIS WAND AND FINISHED THE JOB MYSELF!'''

Cinderella: So if you'd found my Fairy Godmother's wand first, you wouldn't have needed to turn back the hands of time..

Anastasia: ...Nor would you have needed to lull Cinderella and her father into your trap...

Cinderella: ...And nor would you have EVEN needed to marry to give birth to Anastasia and Drizella?!

Lady Tremaine (nearing the apex of her rage): ABSOLUTELY NOT!!

Cinderella: So, I was right...All you wanted WAS power...You gave birth to your two daughters and raised them as lambs for slaughter, and then lulled my poor father and I into your plan, JUST so you could seize this humble Kingdom for your own terrible wishes! And now all of that is pointless to you, because all you would've needed to take the throne, if you'd only thought of it first, was MAGIC! *burst of anger* THAT'S ALL YOU'VE EVER WANTED FROM THE VERY BEGINNING!

'''Lady Tremaine: YOU ARE SADLY RIGHT! AND I DON'T NEED ANY OF YOU ANYMORE; *turns to look down at Lucifer* NOT EVEN YOU, LUCIFER! *turns Lucifer into a statue and turns to Cinderella and her animal friends* AND YOU POOR LITTLE CREATURES ARE NO LONGER NEEDED, EITHER! I CAN RULE THIS KINGDOM ALONE! YOU WILL ALL PERISH *TOGETHER*, AND THERE'S NOTHING ANYONE CAN, OR COULD HAVE DONE TO STOP ME! POWER, RICHES, AND REVENGE, I SHALL CLAIM ALL OF THEM!!!'''

Cinderella: *takes a deep breath to regain her composure* Well, maybe one thing *can* still stop you. *turns to Kit* Kit, I need that sword.

Kit: Cinderella, are you sure you can deal with her alone? You may need me.

Cinderella: Thank you, Kit, but I have to do this myself.

* Kit nods in agreement and gives Cinderella his sword. She then stands in front of the other four captives to protect them*

Cinderella (keeping her anger in check): Go on then, Lady Tremaine; try and turn us into toads! Let's see if your greed, and ambition, and hatred are really as powerful as you think they are! Let's see if your parents really were right!

* Lady Tremaine finally reaches the very apex of her wrath. Her face is now glowing white, and her eyes glowing bright orange with hatred and lust*

'''Lady Tremaine: ALRIGHT, THEN! YOU ASKED FOR IT, CINDERELLA! I AM GOING TO FINISH THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL!'''

* Cinderella steadies herself to deflect the bolt of magic Lady Tremaine is about to launch, as the latter begins violently waving the wand around before finally releasing all her hatred and lust upon the Kingdom*

Lady Tremaine (screaming the loudest she's ever screamed in her life): BIBBIDI-BOBBIDI...BIBBIDI-BOBBIDI...BIBBIDI-BOBBIDI...BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

* Lady Tremaine fires a bolt of magic at her captives in a final vengeful act of greed and cruelty. Cinderella manages to deflect the magic blast and it bounces of the sword and back to Lady Tremaine and Drizella, causing the vortex to suck them away, along with Lucifer. It then begins to whirl around much more violently as the thunderstorm intensifies over the Kingdom; a culmination of all Lady Tremaine's devilish traits*

Cinderella: Cover your eyes, everyone!

* Everyone covers their eyes as the tempest continues for at least another 15 seconds, and panic continues across the Kingdom. After one final flash of light and one last mighty clap of thunder, the vortex finally fades away and sends Lady Tremaine and Drizella to the cellar, with them both turned into toads, while Lucifer, still in his cat form, finds himself outside the closed Palace gates. Cinderella and the other four captives breathe a sigh of relief at having finally freed the Kingdom from Lady Tremaine's devilish decades-long plot. The crowd in attendance along with the rest of the Kingdom also rejoices*

Kit: Thank you so much, Cinderella.

Cinderella: Of course, Kit. *turns to check on Anastasia, the King and the Grand Duke* Is everyone alright?

Anastasia (looking like she doesn't deserve Cinderella's protection): Yes, I'm fine.

King: Yes, we're all still in one piece.
