Steiner-Princess, come here.
Dagger-(enters)
Yes…uh…mother? What is it you wish?
Steiner-Well…actually, I'd like a pony, so I could ride it around town and people would say, 'Ooh, it's Captain Adelbert Steiner of the Knights of Pluto!'
Dagger-Steiner!?
Steiner-Oh! Sorry. Ahem. Tonight we will celebrate your sixteenth birthday. So now you must get ready for the party.
Dagger-Yes mother, I can hardly wait.

(touches needle)
Ah! My finger, it's bleeding! Oh…

Steiner-Oh no, the princess has died! My beloved daughter!

Amarant-(whispers)
Man, he's getting way too into this.
(fairies appear on stage, sans Quina)
Freya-Don't cry, good Queen.
Quina-(runs onto stage)
I back. I find no popcorn.
Vivi-Uh, Quina? It's your line.
Quina-Alright…Which one?
Vivi-(whispers)
'The princess has fallen into a deep sleep.'
Freya-(whispers to Amarant)
Did Vivi memorize the entire play?
Vivi-I heard that!…And yes, I did manage to memorize all the lines…
Quina-Princess go beddy-bye.
Vivi-Uh…? O-okay. The gift I gave her sixteen years ago has come true.
Steiner-Which one was that…?
Freya-Now we must wait for a noble, young prince to come and awaken her…
Quina-Me still hungry! Me no get popcorn!
