Cinderella Page #4

Who is she? You know her?

No, Sire.

I've never seen her before.

That's one thing in her favour.

The waltz. Quick, the waltz!

Soft Iights.

The Iights!

Aha! Failure, eh!

Well...now for a good night's sleep.

Quite so, Sire. I believe I too--

You will stay right here.

See they're not disturbed.

And when the boy proposes...

notify me immediately!

- Notify me immed--

- And remember...

if anything goes wrong...

Ia...ha...

- But who is she, Mother?

- Do we know her?

certainly seems to.

But I know I've never seen her.

Nor I.

But she certainly is-- Wait...

there is something familiar about her.

Ahem.

So this is love

So this is love

So this is what makes life

Worthwhile

I'm all aglow

And now I know

And now I know

The key to our heaven is mine

My heart has wings

And I can fly

I'll touch every star

In the sky

So this is the miracle

That I've been dreaming of

So this is love

Oh! Oh, my goodness!

What's the matter?

It's midnight.

- Yes, so it is, but--

- Goodbye.

No, no, wait. You can't go now. It's only--

Oh, I must, please. Please, I must.

- But why?

- Well, I...I...

Oh, the Prince. I haven't met the Prince.

The Prince? But didn't you know--

- Goodbye!

- No, wait. Come back.

Please come back!

I don't even know your name.

How will I find you?

Wait! Please wait!

Goodbye.

I say, young Iady!

- Who is she?

- Wait!

- Who is she?

- Isn't she IoveIy?

Mademoiselle!

See rita!

Just a moment!

Stop! Stop!

Stop that coach! Close those gates!

Follow that coach!

Open the gates!

I'm sorry.

I... I guess I forgot about everything,

even the time, but...

but it was so wonderful.

And he was so handsome,

and when we danced--

Oh, Im sure that even the Prince himself...

couldn't have been more... more--

Oh, well. It's over and--

Cinderelly! Look, look!

- A slipper, a slipper!

- Yeah, a slipper.

- Your slipper, Cinderelly.

- Yeah, your slipper.

Oh!

Thank you.

Thank you so much, for everything.

Your Majesty, I see no point

in beating about the bush.

I regret to inform you, Sire,

that the young Iady has disappeared...

Ieaving behind only this glass slipper.

Yes, I'll do it.

No, I just can't.

Well? Come in.

Come in!

- Your Majesty--

- So... he's proposed already!

- Tell me all about it.- Well, Sire--

Who is she?

Where does she Iive?

- Well, I didn't get a chance--- No matter.

We've more important things to discuss.

Arrangements for the wedding,

invitations, a national holiday.

- All that sort of thing.

- But, but, Sire--

Here, here, have a cigar. Take a few more.

ha...

But, but, but--

Better practice passing these out, eh?

But, but, but, if you'd... only listen!

And for you, my friend...

Your, Your Majesty, p-p-please.

a knighthood!

I hereby dub you Sir...

Uh... um...

By the way, what title would you like?

- Sire, she got away, sir.

- She got away?

A peculiar title, but if thats what you--

She what?

Why you, you... you traitor!

Now, Sire, remember your...

your blood pressure.

Traitor!

No, Sire, no!

Sabotage!

You were in Ieague with the Prince all along!

I tried to stop her...

but she vanished into thin air!

- A IikeIy story!

- But its true, Sire!

All we could find was this glass slipper.

The whole thing was a plot!

But, Sire, he Ioves her.

He won't rest 'tiI he finds her.

He's determined to marry her.

What? What did you say?

The Prince, Sire, swears

he'll marry none but the girl...

- who fits this slipper.

- He said that, did he?

Ha-ha! We've got him!

Yahoo-o-o!

But, Sire, this slipper

may fit any number of girls.

That's his problem. He's given his word.

- We'll hold him to it.

- No, no, Your Highness.

I'll have nothing to do with it.

You'll try this on every maid in my kingdom,

and if the shoe fits...

bring her in!

Y-y-yes, Your Majesty.

Cinderella! Cinderella?

Cinderella!

- Oh, where is that--

- Yes? Here I am.

Oh... my daughters, where are they?

I... I think they're still in bed.

Oh... Well, don't just stand there.

Bring up the breakfast

trays at once, and hurry!

Uh-oh! Wonder what's the matter.

Duh... duh... What's the matter with her?

I dont know. Let's find out.

Come on!

Drizella! Drizella!

What?

Get up! Quick! This instant!

We haven't a moment to Iose.

Anastasia? Anastasia.

Get up, Anastasia!

What for? Why?

Oh, everyone's talking about it

the whole kingdom. Hurry now!

- He'll be here any minute.

- Who will?

The Grand Duke. He's been hunting all night.

- Hunting?

- For that girl.

The one who Iost her slipper

at the ball Iast night.

They say he's madly in love with her.

- The Duke is?

- No, no, no! The Prince!

The Prince!

You clumsy little fool!

Clean that up, and then

help my daughters dress.

What for?

If hes in Iove with that girl,

why should we even bother?

Now, you two, Iisten to me!

There is still a chance

that one of you can get him.

What? One of us?

Why, Mother, what do you mean?

Just this. No one, not even the Prince,

knows who that girl is.

We do! We do! Cinderelly, Cinder--

The glass slipper is their only clue.

The Duke has been ordered to try it

on every girl in the kingdom,

and if one can be found

whom the slipper fits, then...

by the King's command, that girl

shall be the Prince's bride.

Bride... Bride!

Cinderella, get my things together.

Never mind her, mend these right away!

Not until she irons my dress!

- Mend these.

- After she's brushed my shoes.

But first get my new--

W-w-what's the matter with her?

- Wake up, stupid!

- We've gotta get dressed!

Dressed... Oh, yes...

We must get dressed. It would never do...

for the Duke to see me looking like this.

Mother, did you see what she did?

- Are you just going to Iet--

- Quiet!

So this is love

- What she gonna do?

- Shhh! I don't know.

Gotta watch her. Come on!

Ia, Ia...

- Cinderelly!

- Look out, Iook out!

- So this is the miracle

That I've been dreaming of

- Cinderelly, look out!

- Behind you, behind you!

- Look behind you, Cinderelly!

- What?

Oh! Oh, no!

No, please!

Oh, you cant! You just can't!

Let me out! You must Iet me out!

You can't keep me in here!

Please...

No, no! She can't do it!

She can't Iock up Cinderelly! I'm gonna--

Oh, please, please.

We gotta get that key, Gus-Gus.

We just gotta get that key.
