Cut to Maleficent's home. Cruella, Jafar and Grimhilde are gathered there.
Maleficent: You will go to Auradon, and you will find Fairy Godmother's magic wand. Easy peasy.
"Not on my watch!" FG yelled.
"Why would I stoop so low as common theft?" muttered Maleficent. "I have my own staff to use. Oh, wait, there's no magic on the Isle."
Mal: What's in it for us?
Maleficent: Matching thrones. Hers and hers crowns.
Carlos: I, um, I think she... she ment us.
Carlos indicates the four teens.
The other VKs laughed at Carlos as he whimpered into Jay's shoulder. Cruella snarled at him, whereas the other Villains started muttering about parenting.
Maleficent: It's all about you and me, kiddo. Don't you enjoy watching innocent people suffer?
Mal: Of... of course. Yeah, I mean, w-who doesn't?
Maleficent was relieved when she heard Mal stutter.
Maleficent: Well then get me the wand and you and I can see that and so much more. And uf you refuse, you'll be grounded for the rest of your lives, missy!
"D-did she just say lives? She can't ground your friends!" exclaimed Fairy Godmother.
Maleficent got up and walked to where Mal was sat. "What did I mean by 'grounded'?" she whispered.
"A literal grounding. My wings would be cut off." Mal unfolded her gothic black, purple and lime green butterfly wings. Maleficent allowed her tears to fall as she enveloped her future daughter in a hug. Mal tensed.
"Mom, why are you squeezing me?" Mal asked.
"I'm hugging you. It's what people do to comfort each other."
"As touching as this moment is, we have a movie to finish watching," said the girl from the first chapter. "By the way, I'm Victoria."
Mal: But Mom-!
Mal and Maleficent have a staring competition, their eyes glowing green.
Maleficent was gob-smacked, and not in a good way.
"No! The child doesn't deserve that!" she cried. Hades let her cry into his chest as he hugged her comfortingly.
"W-what's going on?" Lefou stammered.
"Imagine... imagine all the pain felt by people throughout history, and add another bucketful of suffering," the pixie choked in between sobs.
Mal backs down.
Maleficent: I win!
Grimhilde: Evie! My little evil-ette in training.
Evie sits in the seat in front of Grimhilde.
Grimhilde: You just need to find a prince with a big castle... who has a mother-in-law wing.
Evie: And lots of mirrors!
Evie giggles but is stopped by Grimhilde.
Grimhilde: No laughing, wrinkles!
"She wouldn't get wrinkles from laughing for half a minute!"
Cruella: Well, they ain't taking my Carlos because I'd miss him too much.
Carlos: Really, mum?
Carlos looked hopefully at the Cruella in the theatre, but only got a growl in return.
"Why would I want a child? Too much time consuming."
The teen De Vil whimpered like an injured puppy, and Jay tried to comfort him.
Cruella: Yes. Who else would touch up my roots, fluff my fur and scrape the bunions off my feet?
Everyone except Cruella and the VKs gagged at the idea of bunions. [AN: I had to google bunions. It ain't pretty]
"You forgot the cooking, the cleaning, the mending, the sewing, the laundry, being a chauffeur, attending to your stuffed puppy," Carlos added, shivering at that last one, "and being your personal punching bag."
Even some of the VKs, who were also treated badly by their parents, grew worried at what Carlos suffered. No wonder Cruella was called the Devil woman.
Carlos looks disappointed.
"Ingrate!" yelled Cruella, ignoring the glares she got. [AN: I also had to google ingrate. It means "ungrateful person" by the way]
Carlos: Maybe a new school wouldn't be too bad.
Cruella: Carlos, they allow dogs in Auradon.
Carlos: Oh no! I-I'm not going!
"You can't scare him like that!" cried Jack Skellington.
"Says the Pumpkin King!"
"That's our job, but we're not mean!"
"In our town of Halloween," sang the Halloween residents. Jack pouted as the Villains chuckled.
Maleficent rolls her eyes.
Jafar: Well, Jay isn't going. I need him to restock my store.
"And Jafar doesn't even attempt to hide his lack of care!" yelled Jasmine.
"Wait, how did my advisor end up a Villain?" asked the Sultan of Agrabah.
Jafar pulls Jay aside.
Jafar: What did you score?
Jay pulls out many items, hidden on himself. When he pulls out an oil lamp, Jafar snatches it off him and rubs the side.
Jay: It doesn't work, Dad. I already tried.
Jafar: You imbecile! If you attempt and it works, you'd be it's master, not me!
Jafar hits Jay over the head with the oil lamp.
"Why did you specifically want an old oil lamp? And what did you mean it doesn't work?" Aladdin asked. Jafar shrugged.
"I'm sorry, Dad. I'm a rubbish theif," mumbled Jay, quietly enough for no one to hear. Yet Carlos heard and rubbed Jay's arm Comfortingly.
Grimhilde: Well Evie's not going anywhere until we get rid of this uni-brow.
Evie feels her forehead in between her eyebrows.
"What uni-brow?!" shouted the entire audience.
Maleficent: What is wrong with you all?
"Duh, they're Villains," said Chad and Audrey, receiving glares.
Maleficent: For twenty years, I have searched a way off this wretched Island. For twenty years, they have robbed us of our revenge! Revenge on Snow White and her horrible little men.
Grimhilde is plucking hairs out of Evie's non existent uni-brow. She gets distracted by Maleficent's words and plucks too hard.
Evie: Ow!
Everyone who had ever plucked their eyebrows winced.
Maleficent: Revenge on Aladdin and his bloated Genie.
Jafar goes into a rage but is held back by Jay.
Jay flinched at what would've happened afterwards. Worry filled Jafar's eyes as he watched his future son.
Maleficent: Revenge on every sneaky dalmatian that escaped your clutches.
"Drat," cursed Cruella.
Cruella starts laughing manically, squeezing the stuffed puppy that sits on her shoulder. Carlos backs away slowly.
Cruella: They didn't get Baby. They didn't get the... they didn't get Baby!
Maleficent: And I, the evilest of all, shall get my revenge on Sleeping Beauty and her relentless little prince.
The Villains and Heroes began to wonder about their futures that led to this.
Maleficent: Villains! Our time has come. EQ, give her the Magic Mirror.
Grimhilde gives Evie the Magic Mirror. Evie looks halfway between disappointed and disbelief.
"What happened to my Magic Mirror?!"
"You're lucky you've got that left with Jay around," said Carlos, making Jay smirk.
Evie: This is your Magic Mirror?
Grimhilde: Well, it ain't what it used to be. Then again, neither are we. It will help you find things.
Evie: Like a Prince?
Grimhilde: Like my waistline.
Maleficent: Like the magic wand, hello!
"One-track mind, this one," joked Grimhilde, receiving a playful slap on the shoulder from the pixie.
Grimhilde: Hello.
Maleficent: My spell book. My book. I need my... that book.
Grimhilde points to the fridge/freezer.
Maleficent: Oh, ah! The safe. The safe. Queen, help me! I never can figure this thing out.
"Um, that's a fridge," informed Lonnie. Mal rolled her eyes.
"It's a safe! And the only one on the Isle that works," retorted Mal.
Grimhilde opens the freezer part of the fridge/freezer.
Grimhilde: VoilĂ .
Maleficent gets book out of freezer.
Maleficent: My spell... come, darling. Come. Oh... ooh! Oh, Oh. There she is. It doesn't work here, but it will in Auradon. Remember? When we were spreading evil and ruining lives.
Grimhilde: Like it was yesterday.
Maleficent: And now you'll be making your own memories...
Mal reaches for the book.
"At least you're saying something nice?" tried Jafar.
Maleficent yanks the book back.
Maleficent: ...By doing exactly as I tell you.
Mal gets handed the book.
"...Never mind."
Car honks outside.
