P Prudence
Stop! You there. Who are you? What are you doing here?
P Prudence
I'm in charge of all the servants in this castle, and I've never seen you before. What is your purpose?
My purpose? Well, um, I... I... [She sees Jaq and Gus run to a corner] I'm the royal mouse catcher.
P Prudence
[The mice skid to a halt]
Royal mouse catcher? Preposterous.
Snap 'em and trap 'em, that's my motto.
Gus [jumping into Jaq's arms]
Oh, no!
P Prudence
[Cinderella motions "no" at the mice and smiles nervously at Prudence. The mice relax. Cinderella then motions "go"]
In the thirty years that I have supervised... [She hears something behind her and looks over her shoulder suspiciously] ... This castle, I can assure you there's never, ever been a single, solitary...
I did, too, but he doesn't even know who I am. [turns to walk away]
JA Jaq and Gus
No! No, no, no!
Gus It's a-magic!
What? What are you talking about? [The mice babble incoherently, then Jaq fashions his appearance to look like Lady Tremaine] Stepmother? [Gus throws a piece of blue cloth around him to look like the Fairy Godmother] Fairy Godmother?
Gus [holding a splinter as a makeshift wand]
Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo!
[snatching the splinter]
Ha-ha!
[while Gus imitates crying]
I show Princey! [Gus misses his cue] Princey! Princey!
Gus [rushes off and comes back dressed like the prince]
My Cinderelly awaits.
Princey, you will marry Anastasia!
Gus [hypnotized]
Anastasia...
Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo! [there's a cartoony "boing!" sound and Gus imitates hypnosis. Cinderella realizes everything]
She made him forget who I am. [the mice nod sadly] Magic! That explains it! [with renewed confidence, she looks at the mice] Boys, we have to get that wand!
Keep out of the maid's way, girls. There's a lot to do before the wedding.
Gus [Gus gives Jaq the key up on the dresser and wipes his face, only to accidentally drop both the key and Jaq]
Hmm?
[Gus notices Jaq struggling to open the dresser drawer with the key] [Cinderella notices Lady Tremaine's reflection in the bucket water]
Isn't that right, [pulls Cinderella's bonnet off] Cinderella?
[Cinderella gasps as Lady Tremaine glares at her] [gasps]
I didn't know you worked here.
[Jaq and Gus lift the wand out of the dresser drawer]
You're far more persistent than I thought.
[stands up]
I am not going to let you get away with this.
[smirks]
I don't think so. [to Jaq and Gus] Jaq, Gus! [she, Jaq and Gus run towards the door]
Gus [Cinderella is in her room, wearing her wedding dress. Jaq and Gus are directing the blue birds, who are moving her veil]
Duh, no. This-a way?
Gus No, no, no, no... thatta way.
[offscreen]
How lovely you look, my dear.
Gus [Cinderella looks around. So do Jaq and Gus and the blue birds]
Duh.
[Suddenly, Lady Tremaine appears. Jaq and Gus, and the blue birds hide as Lady Tremaine enters the room, carrying and petting Lucifer. Lucifer hops down and up onto the bed]
It appears you were right, Cinderella. The Prince does want to marry you. And marry you he shall. Anastasia. Anastasia! [Suddenly, Anastasia enters the room, transformed into Cinderella. Cinderella gasps] Or should I say... "Cinderella."
[to Anastasia, suddenly realizing that she is responsible for this]
What have you done? [to Lady Tremaine] The Prince won't be fooled.
The Prince will never know. He'll be perfectly happy.
But will you, Anastasia? Will you be happy?
I... I want what you had.
But do you even love him?
[pushing Anastasia aside]
Love! Look where it's gotten you. [she shoots magic with the wand at Cinderella, making her disappear]
[Suddenly, Jaq and Gus jump down from the mirror and disappear as well]
Cinderelly!
Gus No!
[Cut to a pumpkin patch. A horse is grazing. Suddenly, a pumpkin grows big. The horse trots away. Suddenly, all three of them appear in the pumpkin, which Lady Tremaine turns into a thorn vine-covered carriage]
Cinderelly!
Gus What's happened, Cinderelly?
[Suddenly, a window appears, covered by thorn vines. Suddenly, the thorn vine-covered carriage captures a nearby horse, pulling him back. Cinderella gasps]
Lucifer, make absolutely certain they don't come back... [Lucifer grins and smiles evilly] ...alive.
