[Afternoon]
Lady Tremaine is sitting at the main entrance, waiting for the prince to arrive.
{Knocking on door}
{Lady Tremaine childishly jumps up towards the door, stops in front of the door to fix her dress, her hair and to breath; and then opens the door, and immediately bows}
Lady Tremaine
You're Majesty.
{Geoffrey enters through the door (with a snooty attitude), and walks towards the couch to sit}
Geoffrey
Thank you . . . you may rise.
{Lady Tremaine rises and looks at Geoffrey in confusion}
Geoffrey
Is there something wrong madam?
Lady Tremaine
Yes; yes I'm afraid so.
Geoffrey
And that is . . . ?
Lady Tremaine
Who in the hell are you? If they weren't going to send the Prince, the King could have sent someone else with at least half the power as the Prince does; it could have been Lucifer for crying out loud! That's saying something because he's barley mentioned . . . in anything; no offence.
Geoffrey
Much taken;
{Scans the room}
I see no one here other than yourself, so I'll be on my way to the next house.
{Begins to get up}
{Lady Tremaine gets up and pushes him to sit back down}
Lady Tremaine
No, no, no, don't do that; Anastatia! Drizzela! Come down here right now, it's time.
{Drizzela begins to walk down the stairs along with Anastatia who walks down in pain slowly}
{Geoffrey jumps in sight of the girls as the make their way down the last step}
Lady Tremaine
These are my daughters, Drizzela . . .
(Drizzela bows)
And Anastatia
(Anastatia bows, and wobbles)
Geoffrey
Yes,
(mumbles under his breath)
I couldn't tell.
Lady Tremaine
What?
Geoffrey
What lovely daughters you have,
(Jumps up to attention)
Nevertheless, I'm here under orders; now which one of you will try on the slipper first?
{Drizzela begins to bow}
Drizzela
I'd-
Lady Tremaine
My daughter, Anastatia will be trying on the slipper fist, the slipper does fit;
(Nudges Anastatia's shoulder)
doesn't it darling.
Anastatia
Hmmm? – oh yes, yes, yes, yes.
{Geoffrey gives an odd look at Anastatia}
Geoffrey
Very well, take a seat . . .
Penelopy, bring the slipper!
{Penelopy enters stage with a carved wooden box, and hands it over to Geoffrey}
Geoffrey
Thank you.
{Penelopy walks over to a shelf and examines books and pictures}
{Geoffrey kneels to Anastatia's foot and pulls out the glass slipper from the box}
Geoffrey
Oh my.
Anastatia
What, what is it?
Geoffrey
Your feet, they seem to be deformed; you wouldn't have a disease of any sort would you?
Anastatia
Of course not, why would you- never mind, it's just the extra layers of stockings I'm wearing; get on
with it, put on the slipper.
{Geoffrey speaks while putting the slipper on Anastatia's foot}
Geoffrey
Fine, but honestly ma'am I don't-
. . . It fits.
{Anastatia and Drizzela begin to jump scream and shout in joy}
Penelopy
It what?
Geoffrey
Oh god; it fits, oh my- no, no, no, it can't it just; there has to be someone else in this house please,
please.
{Penelopy opens the door to were Cinderella is cleaning the floors}
Penelopy
Geoffrey, come here.
Geoffrey
Wha-
{Penelopy and Geoffrey both look through the door to admire Cinderella
{Cinderella is on her hands and knees scrubbing the floor}
Cinderella
(Tune of song is from actual Disney movie)
Sleep, sweet nightingale, ~
Sleep, sweet nightingale
Ahahahahaaaaaaaa
Geoffrey
She's perfect. Lady Tremaine who is this girl?
{Cinderella Stops singing and looks up at Geoffrey}
{Cinderella stands up and walks towards Geoffrey and Lady Tremaine}
Lady Tremaine
Who, her? Oh, sir she's nothing, nothing more than a servant towards-
Cinderella
I'm her . . . her . . . Step Daughter.
Geoffrey
Trust me darling I wouldn't believe otherwise. Ma'am this is your daughter-
Cinderella
Step
{Lady Tremaine gives Cinderella a dirty glare}
Geoffrey
Step daughter, and since you're lucky . . . eldest daughter has fit the slipper and is bringing her family
to the palace as well, this young lady will attend as well, since she is part of this family.
Lady Tremaine
Very well
Geoffrey
Then we're off.
{Everyone Starts walking out the door, Anastatia stays behind with Cinderella}
Anastatia
Ok, you two faced liar; it's my turn now, the tables have officially tuned, you mess this up and you're
dead.
Cinderella
I couldn't have said it better myself, be careful your feet don't start bleeding
{Cinderella stomps on Anastatia's foot without the slipper and grinds her heels in}
{Anastatia tries not to howl too loud}
Anastatia
Why you little, moth-
{Cinderella places her finger in front of Anastatia's mouth}
Cinderella
Oh no you don't; if you draw attention to what happened, they'll have your foot checked out, and
they'll discover that that's not your slipper, and that you butchered your feet to fit the slipper. I think
you can get hung for deceiving the king too, . . . and we don't want that to happen.
Anastatia
Fine- enjoy it while it last; won't be much longer anyway.
Cinderella
I haven't lost yet; this game is just about to start.
(Cinderella walks towards the door)
do you want us to leave without you? I'm sure Geoffrey wouldn't mind at all; your choice.
{Cinderella giggles while exiting the scene}
{Anastatia painfully follows}
