We all goin' out dancin' tonight. Care to join us?
MC Male Customers
Yeah, c'mon, Tiana, live a little. It's Mardi Gras.
Tiana No, I got two left feet. Besides, I'm gonna... [to a rather messy kid] Need a napkin, sweetheart? I'm gonna work a double shift tonight. [serving pancakes to a male customer] Here're your hotcakes. You know, so I...
G Georgia
You can save for your restaurant. I know, I know. Girl! All you ever do is work!
Buford Are you talkin' 'bout that dang restaurant again?
Tiana Buford, your eggs are burnin'.
Buford You ain't never gonna get enough for the down payment.
Tiana I'm gettin' close.
Buford Yeah. How close?
Tiana Where my flapjacks?
Buford [laughing]
You got about as much chance of gettin' that restaurant as I do of winnin' the Kentucky Derby.
Tiana Mornin', Mr. La Bouff.
Tiana Congratulations on bein' voted king of the Mardi Gras parade.
Caught me completely by surprise... for the fifth year in a row! Now, how about I celebrate with...
Tiana Beignets? Got me a fresh batch just waitin' for you.
Well, keep 'em comin' 'til I pass out!
Travis [At the costume party, Charlotte is anxiously waiting for Naveen and warding off the advances of a young man named Travis]
But Miss Charlotte, you said "later" 2 hours ago!
[exasperated]
Travis, when a woman says "later", she really means "not ever"! Now, run along. There are plenty of young fillies dyin' for you to waltz them into a stupor. [After a disappointed Travis walks away, Charlotte rushes over to Tiana's table and grabs as many napkins as she can] GIMME THEM NAPKINS, QUICK!
Tiana [confused]
What on Earth for?
[stuffs the napkins inside the sleeves and neckline of her dress]
I swear I am sweatin' like a sinner in church!
You know, waitress, I've finally figured out what is wrong with you.
Tiana Have you now?
You do not know how to have fun. There. So, what do you have to say?
Tiana Thank you. 'Cause I figured out what your problem is, too.
I'm too wonderful? [a branch hits him]
Tiana No. You're a no-account, philanderin', lazy bump on the log!
Tiana What did you say?
Nothing. [fake cough] Stick-in-the-mud!
Tiana Listen here, Mister. This "stick-in-the-mud" has had to work two jobs her whole life while you've been suckin' on a silver spoon, chasing chambermaids 'round your ivory tower!
Actually, it's polished marble.
[Tiana has refused Dr. Facilier's deal and tries to smash the charm on the ground, but fails when Facilier's shadow grabs it and gives it back to Dr. Facilier, who then turns Tiana back into a frog]
Y'all shoulda taken ma deal. [pins Tiana down with his cane] Now, you're gonna spend the rest o' your life bein' a slimy little frog! [laughs]
Tiana [grins]
I got news for you, Shadow Man. It's not slime, it's mucus! [grabs the charm with her tongue, and when Dr. Facilier gasps, Tiana smashes it on the ground.]
No! NO!! [picks up the remains and gasps in horror as colorful lights flicker around him. Tiana hides] How am I ever gonna pay back my debt?! [3 masks break out of some gravestones, chanting]
M Masks
Bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom...
[smiling nervously]
Friends...!
M Masks
[smiling evilly]
...Bom, bom, bom, bom. Are you reeeeady?
No! I'm not ready at all! In fact, I got lots more plans!
SH Shrunken heads
Are you reeeeady?
This is just a... minor setback in a major operation! [Voodoo dolls burst out of the ground, carrying drumsticks. Facilier shrieks] Soon, as I whip up another spell, we'll be back in business! I've still got that froggy prince locked away. [backs up against a tombstone with his shadow hiding behind him] I just need a little more time! [The tombstone transforms into a huge, demonic mask. Facilier squeals] No, no, please, no! [a demon grabs his shadow and starts to pull him toward the mask's mouth. Facilier yelps in surprise] Just a little more time! [The demons chant and bang on drums] I promise I'll pay y'all back! I PROMISE! [screams in fear when he ends up being pulled into the mask's mouth along with the other demons. The mouth shuts. The smoke clears revealing the tombstone with his shocked face above FACILIER which is engraved on it]
[After Tiana sees Lawrence and Charlotte on a wedding cake float, Ray enters the cemetery and sees Tiana brokenhearted]
I know what we’ve seen with our eyes but...If we just go back there, we gonna find that your fairy tale come true.
Tiana Just because you wish for something doesn’t make it true.
It’s like my Evangeline always said to me-
Tiana [snaps]
Evangeline is nothing but a star, Ray! A big ball of hot air a million miles from here! Open your eyes now, before you get hurt. [leaves]
[looks back sadly at Evangeline in tears]
She’s just big in a broken heart. That’s all it is. Come on, Evangeline. We're going to show Chère the truth.
