[Night]
Lady Tremaine and the ugly step sisters are rushing out to the door and into the carriage to go to the ball. Cinderella is in her room pacing the floor and checking her clock constantly. Bruno is on the bar and Octavius is munching away on a cracker.
Bruno
Calm down Cinderella, stop it, you'll wear out the floor and you'll fall right through it. Now we don't want any bumps and bruises on your pretty face do we? Go sit on the bed and relax, he'll be here soon with the gown, and-
Cinderella
Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! It's Jacques we're talking about Bruno, he's probably lost or knocked out somewhere in an alley way.
(Starts weeping in her hands)
Oh what am I going to do? I can't stay and live like this forever; I'll get hung for murder if I live one more day like this.
(Switches mood to anger and starts screaming out the window)
I knew I shouldn't have trusted you, you pathetic little bird, you think you can use me but you are mistaken!
(Collapses in tears against the walls and sits with her knees against her chest)
What did I ever do wrong to deserve this?
Octavius
(Likes crumbs of his "feathers" and makes smacking sound with his tongue)
Well Cinderelly; you make your sisters do your chores, your lie to Lady Tremaine, you spit in their food and their drinks, you yell at your step mother and-
{Bruno flies over to cover Octavius' mouth as Octavius continues to mumble through his feathers}
Bruno
Shut up Octavius. You're not helping.
(Hisses angrily at Octavius)
Cinderella
You don't really mean that, right?
(Stands up and starts moving towards Octavius)
Octavius I'm not a –
{Alarm clock goes off through the air and Jacques and Barbra appear, making out}
{Jacques and Octavius freeze in an awkward position}
{Everyone looks at them and Jacques and Barbra look at Cinderella and each other}
{Barbra smiles}
Barbra
Oh, is it time already, Jacques let go.
(Pushes away from Jacques)
Cinderella
Jacques?
(Looks at Bruno curiously)
Barbra
Yes, yes.
(Runs up to Cinderella and hugs her cheerfully)
My darling, I'm your Fairy Godmother. I'm here to make everything go right. And this is your Jacques who insisted to be with you at the ball.
{Cinderella glares between Jacques and Barbra}
Cinderella
You're my Fairy Godmother?
(Points at Barbra)
And you're Jacques?
(Turns point towards Jacques}
{Silence hovers through the room and Cinderella thinks as everyone glares at her}
Cinderella
{Smiles wickedly}
Then let's get me a Prince!
Jacques
(Picks up Cinderella and twirls her around)
That's my girl.
(Puts her down and sits with Bruno and Octavius)
Barbra
Then let's get you a dress, and make you look like a queen.
{Lights, smoke and stupid stereotypical fairy music starts to play in the background during the transformation}
Cinderella
(Walks over to look at herself in the mirror)
Oh hot damn I am fine. I look like, like a queen.
{Barbra starts working on Cinderella's hair and makeup}
{Jacques, Bruno and Octavius have separate conversation}
Bruno
She does look nice; Barbra wouldn't put that much effort in a dress for nothing;
(looks at Jacques)
You slept with her didn't you?
Octavius
(Snickers)
Jacques
What?
(Scratches back of neck)
I-
Bruno
(Whale wings in the air)
Jacques screwed her. I don't understand why I'm surprised though, I'm pretty sure I said it too, but I didn't want to believe it.
Jacques
Now hold it right there, I did it for Cinderella, not for-
Octavius
Duh, duh. But you were happy when Barbra gave you fingers.
Jacques
You know what-
Barbra
Boys! Well what do you think?
{Bruno, Jacques and Octavius look at Cinderella in aw, Cinderella has her hair and makeup done}
Barbra
Oops
(Giggles behind her hand)
I almost forgot.
(Transforms Bruno and Octavius into humans)
There, now you're all ready.
Bruno
Wait, there's one more thing that I- well I think you should have with you.
{Bruno exits the scene and returns with a worn-out grey box}
Bruno
These were your mother's. They were her prized possession.
(Pulls out a pair of glass slippers)
And now they're yours.
Cinderella
(Gasps into her hands)
These were Mummy's?
Bruno
I know you didn't really know her, but she loved you, she-
Octavius
Julia?
(Laughs stupidly)
Cinderelly's mother? Oh she was a prick, and a cheater.
(Laughs stupidly)
She was worse than lady-
(Jacques punches Octavius in the side and Octavius gasps)
Octavius
Hey!
Jacques
We have fists now, and I shit you not when I say; I will us them against you.
{Cinderella looks at Octavius}
Octavius
Sorry Cinderelly, I – I – I, was thinking of someone else.
Cinderella
Don't lie to me.
(Takes glass slippers out of the box)
Thank you Bruno, Jacques. . .
(Say sarcastically)
Octavius
{Octavius looks away shamefully)
{Barbra stares at Cinderella with a huge smile across her face and sways here body from side to side}
Jacques
Uhh, Fairy Godmother?
Barbra
Hmm? Oh right, right!
(Aims her wand through the window)
{Cinderella looks through the window}
Cinderella
The Carriage, oh Fairy Godmother it looks magnificent.
(Runs up and hugs Barbra)
Thank you.
Barbra
Ok, now listen here. It takes you about an hour to get to the castle, your step family leaves after around one,
(Takes a firm grip on Cinderella's shoulders)
So you need to make sure that you leave by midnight. Got it! No time later than midnight.
{Bruno walks over and loosens Barbra's grip on Cinderella's shoulders}
Bruno
Midnight, Bar – Uh – Fairy Godmother
Jacques
Then let us be off. Cinderella, your carriage awaits.
{Bruno, Barbra and Cinderella start walking through the door, Jacques stops Octavius}
Jacques
Oh no you don't, you're staying right here.
Octavius
Duh, duh, why not!
Jacques
Because you're going to ruin everything, this is important and we only have one shot at this and we can risk anything-
Octavius
But I'll-
Jacques
Sorry bud, you're not coming.
{Jacques exits the scene and a faint sound of the carriage is herd in the background a few minutes later as Octavius stares at the shut door.}
Octavius
But I wanna go; I'm family too. Hmm!
{Storms out of the room and exits scene}
