Lady Tremaine [holding the glass slipper]
Are you looking for this? There must be quite a story to go with it. Won't you tell me? Hm? Very well, I shall tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a beautiful young girl who married for love. And she had two loving daughters. All was well. But, one day, her husband, the light of her life, died. The next time, she married for the sake of her daughters. But that man, too, was taken from her. And she was doomed to look every day upon his beloved child. She had hoped to marry off one of her beautiful, stupid daughters to the prince. But his head was turned by a girl with glass slippers. And so, I lived unhappily ever after. My story would appear to be ended.
But... All the ladies in the land are invited. By order of the king.
Lady Tremaine It is "the king" I'm thinking of. It would be an insult to the royal personage to take you to the palace dressed in these old rags.
Rags? This was my mother's.
Lady Tremaine Oh... Sorry to have to tell you, but your mother's taste was questionable. This "thing" is so old-fashioned, it's practically falling to pieces. [She tugs harshly at the sleeve of Ella's dress causing it to rip completely]
[after Lady Tremaine breaks Cinderella's glass slipper] [horrified]
Why... Why are you so cruel? I don't understand it... I've tried to be kind to you-
Lady Tremaine [scoffs]
You? Kind to me?
Yes! And though no one deserves to be treated as you have treated me! Why do you do it? Why?!
Lady Tremaine [angry]
Why? Because you are young, and innocent, and... [struggles] good! And I-! [breaks off suddenly, then storms out of the room, locking the door]
Lady Tremaine Now, here is how you will pay me, if you were to have what you desire. No one will believe you, a dirty servant girl without a family, if you lay claim to the Prince's heart. But with a respectable gentlewoman to put you forward, you will not be ignored. When you are married, you will make me the head of the royal household. Anastasia and Drizella we will pair off with wealthy lords, and I shall manage that boy.
Lady Tremaine And who are you? How would you rule a kingdom? Best to leave it to me. That way we all get what we want.
Lady Tremaine No?
I was not able to protect my father from you, but I will protect the prince and the kingdom no matter what becomes of me.
Lady Tremaine no more tears.
Lady Tremaine You needn't call me that. Call me Madam. For all your clothes then more have little Anastasia and Drizella always affectionate shared room they are so affectionate and I would like not to Sometimes I would like to leave you without a nose.
I think their bedroom is more biggest that's it after my father. Now than they get used to it. Mine is the biggest. Share it if you want.
Lady Tremaine What a wonderful idea you are such a girl gentle.
I will stay then entic elastic?
Lady Tremaine yes.
Lady Tremaine Of course, in the finish redecorating the entire house elastic is fresh and big and you can sleep better away from the annoying noise. We will make it more welcoming if you take it all these old objects up.
it was my mother's, it's cute don't you think? and I adjusted it myself
Lady Tremaine Hi, I don't even feel it the dance Who wants a maid like wife after all i've done. I don't want to ruin anything for you, I don't want to see to the prince at least and you will not do it because there is no doubt that you will not go.
