Chapter 1
Belle: Hurry up Beau! We need to drop off the books from the bookshop.
Beau: Ok Belle. I'm coming.
(Beau and Belle came out of the front door and walk down the road to town)
Belle: Little town, it's a quiet village. Everyday like the one before
Beau: Little town, full of little people. Waking up to say…
Town folks: Bonjour! Bonjour! Bonjour! Bonjour! Bonjour!
Beau: There goes the Baker with his tray like always the same old bread and rolls to sell.
Belle: Ev'ry morning just the same since the morning that we came to this poor provincial town
Baker: Good morning, Belle and Beau
Belle and Beau: Morning monsieur!
Baker: Where are you two off to? Belle: To the bookshop. We just read the most wonderful story. About a beanstalk and an ogre and a… Baker: That's nice. Marie! The Baguettes! Hurry up! Townsfolks: Look there they go; they are so strange no question. Dazed and distracted, can't you tell? Never part of any crowd Cause their head's up on some cloud. No denying them a funny group, like Belle and Beau! Bonjour! Good day! How is your family? Bonjour! Good day! How is your wife? I need six eggs! That's too expensive! Belle: There must be more than this provincial life! Bookseller: Ah Belle and Beau Belle: Good morning! We return the books we borrowed. Bookseller: Finish them already!? Beau: We just can't put it down. Got anything new? Bookseller: Not since yesterday. Belle: That's ok. I'll borrow this one. Beau: And I will borrow this one too! Bookseller: These ones? But you guys read them twice. Belle: But it's our favorite Beau: Far off places Belle: daring sword fights Beau: Magic Spells Belle and Beau: And prince in disguise! Bookseller: Well, if you all like it that much, it's yours! Beau: What!? Belle: But sir! Bookseller: I insist Belle: Well, thank you! Beau: Thank you so much! Town folks: Look there they go they are so peculiar! I wonder if they're feeling well! With a dreamy far-off look! And their noses stuck in a book! What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle and Beau! Beau: Oh! Isn't this amazing! It's my favorite part because you'll see. Belle: Here where she meets prince charming. But she won't discover that it's him till chapter three. Townsfolks: Now it's no wonder that their name means 'beauty'. Their looks have got no parallel! But behind that fair façade I'm afraid they're rather odd very different from the rest of us. They're nothing like the rest of us. Yes, different from the rest of us is Belle. (A gunshot shot rang in the sky while Lefou was holding a granny sack. The dead goose misses the bag and Lefou picks it up and ran to Gaston) L: You didn't miss a shot, Gaston! You're the greatest hunter in the world! G: I know L: No beast stands a chance against you or any girl for that matter G: It's true; Lefou and I got my sights on that one. L: The inventor's son? G: NO! The inventor's daughter! She's the one. The girl I'm going to marry. L: But she's… G: The most beautiful girl in town. L: I know, but… G: That makes her the best and don't I deserve the best? L: Of course, you do! G: Right from the moment when I met her, saw her I said she's gorgeous and I fell Here in town there's only she Who is beautiful as me So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle SG: Look there he goes Isn't he dreamy? Monsieur Gaston Oh he's so cute! Be still my heart I'm hardly breathing He's such a tall, dark, strong and handsome brute! MAN 1: Bonjour! GASTON: Pardon! MAN 2: Good day! MAN 3: Mais oui! WOMAN 1: You call this bacon? WOMAN 2: What lovely grapes! MAN 4: Some cheese! WOMAN 3: Ten yards! MAN 4: One pound! GASTON: 'excuse me! MAN 4: I'll get the knife! GASTON: Please let me through!

GASTON: Just watch, I'm going to make Belle my wife! Townsfolks: Look there they go a group who's strange but special A most peculiar little group. It's a pity and a sin. They don't quite fit in! But they really are a funny duo. A beauty but a funny duo. They really are a funny duo! That Beau and Belle! (Belle and Beau look behind them as the townspeople go about their day. As they walk back to their home while reading, they bump into Gaston) G: Hello Belle and Beau Belle and Beau: Bonjour Gaston (Gaston took Belle's book out of her hands) Beau: Gaston can you please return Belle's book please? G: Beau why don't you go home while Belle and I have a private conversion? Beau: No thanks. I don't leave Belle with you around. Belle: Gaston, can I have my book please? G: How can you read this? There's no pictures. BELLE: Well, some people use their imagination! G: Belle, it's about time you got your head out of these books and paid attention to more important things. Beau: Like you? G: Exactly! The whole town's talking about it. It's not right for a woman to read. Soon she starts getting ideas and…thinking! BELLE: Gaston, you are positively primeval! G: Why, thank you, belle. Whaddya say you and I take a walk over to the tavern and look at my trophies? Beau: Whaddya say we don't? Belle: Maybe some other time. We go to help our father. L: Ha! That crazy old loon? He needs help he can get! Beau: Don't talk to our father that way! G: Yeah, don't talk to their father that way Belle: Our father is not crazy. He's a genius. (Suddenly an explosion came from Belle and Beau's house. They dash away while Gaston and Lefou were laughing at what just happen)
