Plot
In the prologue, as told through stain-glass windows, a selfish French prince is visited by an old beggar woman who offers to give him a rose if he provides her with shelter, but the prince refused on account of her hideous appearance and also blows her off again when she warns him not to judge people by looks. The woman is revealed to be a magical enchantress who curses the prince by turning him into a hideous-looking beast and also curses his castle and its inhabitants. The rose is revealed to be enchanted and it will bloom until his 21st birthday and wilt away, which will cement the transformation unless the Beast finds some woman to love and earn her love in return.

A decade later, in a small town, a beautiful bookworm girl named Belle and her cute friendly young mouse named Jerry with a white-diaper are seen as strange by the townsfolks. The popular town hunter, Gaston and his pet bad adult cat named Tom, but Belle and Jerry tries to avoid them because of their arrogance. Belle's father and Jerry's good friend, Maurice is also an outcast among the townsfolk due to his erratic inventions. When Maurice leaves to go to a fair, he ends up getting lost and stumbles upon the Beast's castle where he is greeted by the castle employees who have transformed into anthropomorphic household objects: Cogsworth, the uptight butler who ended up being cursed as a mantle clock; Lumière, a kind-hearted maître d’ who also ended up becoming a candelabra; Mrs. Potts, the housekeeper who was changed into a teapot, along with her son Chip and his brothers and sisters, now teacups, along with a whole bunch of others. With the exception of Cogsworth, the enchanted servants provided hospitality to Maurice, but the Beast comes to lock him up in the dungeon for trespassing into his castle.

After Belle and Jerry turns down Gaston's marriage proposal (made ludicrous by the fact that he organized a wedding just outside her house, foolishly expecting her to accept out of the blue), Jerry's helpful friend Belle takes him to change his diaper on the changing table. She touches and removes Jerry's dirty diaper and puts it in the bin. Then belle put a clean white-diaper on Jerry and he felt much better and comfortable with his fresh​ diaper on. Maurice's horse comes back and takes Belle and Jerry tot he castle where they soon finds Maurice in the dungeon, but they soon meets the Beast. In exchange for her father's freedom, Belle and Jerry offers to be the Beast's prisoners in his stead. The Beast agrees and lets Maurice go and he and his servants plan to make Belle and Jerry try to fall for him in order to revoke the curse, which is hampered when the Beast's nasty temper makes Belle and Jerry spurn coming to dinner with him. Back at the village at Gaston and Tom's tavern, Gaston is still reeling from Belle and Jerry's rejection, but his spirits are lifted when his lackey, LeFou, and the townspeople sing about how no man measures up to him. Maurice bursts in and frantically seeks assistance to save Belle and Jerry from the Beast at the castle, which earns him a ridicule as the villagers find this story too insane.

Belle and Jerry curiously decides to explore around the castle where they meets the servants and at their request, they give their some dinner despite the Beast's orders against it. They soon enters the West Wing, which is the one section of the castle the Beast ordered them not to, and she happens upon the enchanted rose. But before they touches it, the Beast arrives and frightens them out of the West Wing and out of the castle. Belle and Jerry tries to escape to the forest, but they are confronted by a pack of wolves (who earlier tried to kill Maurice). Before they are eaten by them, however, the Beast arrives and saves them, but he gets wounded by the wolves in the process. She and Jerry takes them back to the castle where their relationship begins to slowly improve as the Beast begins acting more selfless, even giving Belle access to a library where she can read all of the books she wants. Meanwhile, inspired by Maurice's 'crazy' story about the Beast, Gaston and Tom convinces the head warden of the local insane asylum, Monsieur D'Arque, to incarcerate Maurice unless Belle and Jerry concurs to wed him. When they go to Belle and Jerry's cottage, they find it empty as Maurice just left before they arrive, so he forces LeFou to stay at the house until they return.

After sharing a romantic dance, the Beasts lets Belle and Jerry use a magic mirror to see her father and his friend and discover that he's lost in the woods. Seeing their worried, the Beasts decides to let Belle and Jerry leave the castle to save her father and his friend. The other servants are upset when Cogsworth tells them the sad news. When Belle and Jerry gets Maurice back home, they soon find that Chip has stowed away into Belle's bag. They are soon interrupted by the villagers, led by Gaston and Tom, who arrived to send Maurice to the asylum. After rejecting Gaston and Tom again, Belle proves that her father is telling the truth by showing everyone the Beast with the magic mirror, which the Beast let her take with her. Seeing that Belle has feelings for the Beast, Gaston twists the truth that the Beast is a monstrous creature and convinces the villagers to attack him, and they lock Belle and Maurice in the cottage den to prevent them from meddling. Luckily, Belle and Maurice are soon freed by Chip and Jerry, who uses Maurice's invention that he was going to take to the fair earlier.

At the castle, the servants discover the mob trying to storm the castle and soon get the jump on them when they break open the castle doors. While the servants battle and chase off the entire Tom and his townsfolk, Gaston soon finds the depressed Beast in the West Wing. They have a fight outside in the rain, where Gaston taunts the Beast for his feelings to Belle and Jerry. When he sees Belle and Jerry has returned to the castle, he finds the strength to defend himself and threatens to drop Gaston off the rooftops, but he becomes merciful and doesn't. As the Beast attempts to reunite with Belle and Jerry, Gaston stabs Beast in the back, but this causes him to fall from the rooftops to his death. The Beast dies in Belle's arms, and she tearfully proclaims her love for him while Jerry begins to cry. This causes the curse to finally be lifted and revive the Beast and turn him and all of his servants back into humans. Belle and the now a human prince have a Ball in celebration of the event while Jerry falls in love with his beautiful young female mouse named Cherie.
