Barbie: Princess Charm School Page #3

for stealing my cake.

Who am I kidding?

I don't fit in

here at all.

I'm like a burp

in a symphony.

You have to give

yourself more time.

You're right.

With more time,

maybe I could destroy

the whole school.

No, Dame Devin's right,

I'm not Princess

Charm School material.

Seriously? Blair.

Dame Devin was Princess

Charm School material.

What do you mean?

Oh, I know this story!

She was a lottery winner, but no

princess picked her to be a lady royal,

not even her sister-in-law,

Queen Isabella.

Exactly. If Delancy weren't

in line for the throne,

Dame Devin would be no more

special than anyone else.

Wow.

But

it's not just her.

Everyone thinks I

don't belong here.

Everyone except you guys.

A little help,

please?

Ooh, care package!

It's for you from...

Emily Willows?

Emily? Really?

That's pretty.

Emily drew it.

She loved the story of me being

found on my mom's doorstep.

I was only one.

Mom adopted Emily

a few years later.

They're everything

to me.

One-two-three,

one-two-three,

one-two-three,

one-two-three,

one-two-three,

one-two-three,

and one-two-three,

one-two-three,

one-two-three,

one-two-three... Ow.

Again, Blair?

I'm sorry.

You've stepped on

eight of my toes!

I only have four left!

Two. You have two left.

That's even worse!

Thank you, everyone.

See you tomorrow.

Not you, Blair.

I'd like to see

you after class.

Well, isn't

that a surprise?

Is...

Is everything okay?

No, it's not, Blair.

Yesterday Dame Devin

recommended we expel you.

Oh.

I can't say I blame her.

I know it's only been a

couple of days, but honestly,

I don't think

I have ever seen

such a disaster of a student

come through these halls.

I see.

Tell you the truth,

I was almost going to do it.

Did you say "almost"?

Almost.

Do you know what it

takes to make a princess?

A crown?

No, not a crown.

Character.

All our classes in

poise, manners, dancing,

they're not superficial.

They build confidence.

But confidence without

character is dangerous.

You, Blair, have

a different problem.

Character without

confidence.

So you are going

to expel me?

I'm going to tutor you.

If you can dig deep and

find the princess inside you,

I have no doubt

you'll graduate

with your pick of any

lady royal position.

If you can

handle it.

Now, what

do you say?

Yes!

Ooh!

Uh, rule number one,

no hugging the tutor.

Sorry. I just...

When do we start?

Right now.

I can do this because I

am perfectly comfortable

and at ease with myself and in my body.

That's because you're not

surrounded by people

who make you feel like

a complete nothing.

No one can make you feel

inferior without your consent.

Right. Your turn.

Headmistress Privet,

there's no way I can do this.

Not if you don't

believe you can.

We start small.

Thirty seconds,

right here on the ground.

That's right.

Just like that.

I can't.

I can't do it.

Yeah, of course

you can...

Right. I see we have our

work cut out for us.

I don't have the balance

Think I'm gonna fall

Wish I had the talent

I don't belong here at all

Drowning in the pressure

In over my head

Why did I think

I could do this

I could have

walked away instead

This is my chance

to break free

Everything's depending on me

And if I keep trying I'll be

On top of the world

Where I can see

everything before me

Reaching up to

touch the sky

On top of the world

All my dreams are

rushing toward me

Stretching out my wings to fly

On top of the world

On top of the world

Nothing's gonna break me

Gonna get it right

Even if it takes me

doing it a thousand times

Trying once is easy

Discipline is hard

But nothing can defeat me

If the change is in my heart

This is my chance to break

free This is my chance

Everything's depending on me

On me

And if I keep trying I'll be

I'll be

On top of the world

Where I can see

everything before me

Stretching out my wings to fly

On top of the world

I need two rows. Ladies on the

pink line, gentlemen on the blue.

Welcome, everyone,

to our joint dance class

with Prince

Charming Academy.

If we could keep the

shrieking to a minimum,

it would be much

appreciated.

Hmm, it looks like

we'll have one extra lady.

Delancy, that's

the pink line.

I just don't see

Prince Nicholas.

He's the one I

want to dance with.

Maybe he's invisible.

No daughter of mine sits

on the sidelines at a dance.

But, Mother...

Looks like you're going to have

to sit out this one, dear. Pity.

All right, everyone's

paired up! Let's begin!

Ugh.

Okay, come along.

Gentlemen, please bow.

Ladies, will you curtsey.

Sorry I'm late...

Oh, no! I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

No, it's not.

I feel awful. Please.

Thank you.

Whoa.

Sorry. I didn't

mean to be late.

That's fine. The two of you can

partner up and join the dance.

Now, gentlemen, lightly kiss

the top of your partner's hand...

And dance.

Milady, I am Nicholas,

young swain from the east,

most privileged to

make your acquaintance.

Think that was

polite enough?

Absolutely.

Think you can top it?

I, kind swain, am Blair,

maiden of Gardania,

honored above all to be

welcomed into your swaininess.

Well done.

I try.

Wonderful, everyone!

Wonderful, now a final bow

and curtsey to your partners,

and we say our farewells

to the young gentlemen

of Prince

Charming Academy.

Keeping in mind that

you will see them again

at the Coronation Day ceremony

at the end of the school year.

I shall count the

moments till then.

As will I, good sir.

I have an

exciting announcement.

Thanks to the generosity

of Dame Devin,

dinner tonight will be a chance for

you to get a taste of your future.

Our manners class

served in the palace.

Yes! Sweet!

No way!

The palace! Can you

even imagine it?

I grew up in the palace,

Portia. I live there.

Oh.

But can you imagine it?

To prepare for this event,

you'll all have the afternoon

to pamper yourselves

in the spa.

Your princess assistants

will help you take advantage

of all the amenities.

Enjoy.

Wickellia.

Whoa!

Top thing you've always

wanted to see in the palace

that you can't

wait to see.

Blair, go.

Hmm, I've never thought

about the palace,

but Emily would

go nuts for it.

I want to remember everything

so I can tell her.

Manicure time!

Nice. Isla, go.

I'd love to find out more

about what happened

to Queen Isabella

and her family.

They're so mysterious.

So true. I want to find out more

about Gardania's magical crown.

Isla mentioned that before.

Emily would

love that story.

Oh! Tell her the legend.

It's said that the crown glows when

placed on the true heir of Gardania.

It lit up on Queen Isabella's

head at her coronation,

but it hasn't been

seen since then.

All done!

These are beautiful.

Thanks.

We should go.

The earlier we get to the

palace, the more we can see.

Our uniforms.

Every one is in shreds!

What are we going to do?

We're not allowed in class

without our uniforms.

And if we skip a class,
