Inside the dwarfs' bedroom, the door opened a bit and Timber draws the lantern through the opening and then he poked his head inside. The others crowd around Timber as they peek inside, with Snails peeking out through Big Mac's beard once again. They opened the door and they slowly tiptoe inside the room. Suddenly, the sound of Fluttershy moaning is heard again which caused the dwarfs to stop in fear and Fluttershy stretches underneath the covers again.
"Jiminy Crickets!" exclaimed Hay Fever.
"Gosh," said Tender.
"Gee," said Cheese.
"What a monster," said Hay Fever.
"Covered three beds," said Tender.
"Let's kill it...before it wakes up," said Timber.
"Which end do we kill?" Cheese asked loudly and Timber shushed firmly at him and the others shushed him as well.
The dwarfs sneak over to the adjacent beds with their weapons raised. As they got close, Timber beckons the others and they surround the beds. Timber slowly reaches his hand for the covers while the others prepare to strike. Timber quickly pulls the covers from the beds and the others halted their weapons when they saw Fluttershy sleeping peacefully.
"Well..." Timber blissfully said, followed by a chuckle.
"What is it?" asked Cheese.
"Why it-it-it...it's a girl!" Timber radiantly said.
"She's mighty pretty," said Hay Fever.
"She's beautiful...just like an angel," Tender contently said.
"Angel, hah!" Cranky contemptuously said. "She's a female! And all females is poison! They're full of wicked wiles!"
"What are "wicked wiles"?" asked Tender.
"I don't know, but I'm ag'in 'em," Cranky said.
Timber shushed firmly at Cranky. "Not so loud! You'll wake her up!"
"Oh, let her wake up!" Cranky said. "She not belong here no how!"
Suddenly, Fluttershy began to move around a bit, on the verge of waking up.
"Look out!" cried Tender.
"She's moving!" cried Hay Fever.
"She's waking up!" said Cheese.
"What'll we do?!" Hay Fever asked.
"Hide!" Timber exclaimed and they all scramble around in a panic, trying to find a place to hide and they duck down on the floor near the footboard of the beds just when Fluttershy started waking up.
"Ohhhh, dear!" Fluttershy moaned as she stretched her arms. "I wonder if the children are-"
Fluttershy noticed the dwarfs peeking from the footboards. "OHHH!" she exclaimed with fright, scaring the dwarfs as they duck back down. The dwarfs then slowly poke their heads up one by one, looking at Fluttershy.
"Why... Why you're little men!" Fluttershy radiantly said and the dwarfs all stood up and they stare at Fluttershy with bewilderment.
"How do you do?" Fluttershy asked the dwarfs and they start looking at each other, still bewildered, as if they didn't understand what she said. "I said how do you do?" she asked again.
"How do you do what?" Cranky brazenly asked as he crossed his arms.
"Oh, you CAN talk! I'm so glad!" Fluttershy happily said. "Now, don't tell me who you are, let me guess... I know, you're Timber," she said to him.
"Why yes, yes! That's true," Timber radiantly said.
"And you," Fluttershy said as she looked at Tender, who is being coy. "You must be Tender."
"Uh-huh," Tender said while blushing.
"And you...you're Big Mac," Fluttershy guessed.
"Eeyup," Big Mac said and then he lets out a yawn as he stretched his arms. "And I'm very sleepy," he added.
"And you..." Fluttershy said to Hay Fever as he began to let out a sneeze and Snails and Cranky placed their fingers underneath his nose, preventing it from happening. "You're Hay Fever," she said and Hay Fever sighed with relief but then he releases the sneeze anyways and the others laughed.
Fluttershy tittered and she looked over at Cheese. "And you must be-"
"Cheese, ma'am, that's me," he said as he pointed a thumb at himself and then he points his thumb at Snails. "And this is Snails, he don't talk none."
"You mean he can't talk?" Fluttershy questioned.
"He don't know, he never tried," Cheese said.
"That's too bad," said Fluttershy and she looked over at Cranky who is shooting her a dirty look while crossing his arms.
"Ohhhhhh, you must be Cranky," she said as she playfully mimics his demeanor.
The dwarfs laugh over Cranky's persona, much to his annoyance, and Timber playfully teases him.
"Hah!" Cranky uttered comptemptuously. "We know who WE are. Ask her who she is... What she's a-doing here?" he told Timber.
"Yeah!" he boldly said. "What are you and who are you doing?! Uh, uh, what are you, uh... Who are you, uh, my dear?" he asked Fluttershy politely.
"Oh, how silly of me; I'm Snow Shy," she said.
"Snow Shy?!" Cheese questioned incredulously.
"The princess?!" the other dwarfs questioned as well.
"Yes," Fluttershy said.
"Well, my, my, my dear quincess—uhh, princess," said Timber. "We're uh, we're honored—yes, we're uh, we're uh-"
"Mad as hornets!" blurted Cranky.
"Mad as hornets!" Timber repeated. "No no, we're not, we're...bad as cornets—no no, bad as, uh—what was I saying?!"
"Nothing! Just standing there sputterin' like a doodlebug!" Cranky rebuked.
"Who's butterin' like a spoodledug?!" Timber argued. "Who's, uh, r-rutter—uh, gutter-"
"Aww, shut up, and tell her to get out!" Cranky harshly said.
"Please don't send me away," Fluttershy pleaded. "If you do, she'll kill me."
"Kill ya?!" Timber exclaimed incredulously.
"Who will?" asked Hay Fever.
"Yes, who?" asked Cheese.
"My stepmother, the queen," Fluttershy said, about Chrysalis.
"THE QUEEN?!" the dwarfs exclaimed with shock.
"She's wicked!" said Tender.
"She's bad," said Cheese.
"She's mighty mean!" said Hay Fever.
"She's an old witch!" Cranky declared. "I'm warnin' ya: if the queen finds her here she'll swoop down and rrrake her vengeance on us!"
"But she doesn't know where I am," said Fluttershy.
"She don't, eh?" Cranky questioned incredulously. "She knows everything... She's full of black magic... She can even make herself invisible."
As he says this, Cranky flicks his fingers in front of Timber's face, causing him to flinch. "...Right here in this room, right now."
Believing Cranky's assumption, Snails lifts up Cheese's beard and he looks under it just to be sure and then Cheese clonks Snails on the head with his fist.
"Oh, she'll never find me here," Fluttershy said. "And if you let me stay, I'll keep house for you. I'll wash and sew and sweep and cook and-"
"COOK?!" the dwarfs exclaimed.
"C-Can you make dapple lumpings—uh, lumple daplings?" Timber asked Fluttershy.
"Apple dumplings!" Cranky and Big Mac corrected him peevedly.
"Uh, yes; crapple dumpkins," Timber said.
"Yes," said Fluttershy. "And plum pudding and gooseberry pie-"
"A GOOSEBERRY PIE?! HURRAY! SHE STAYS!" the dwarfs — minus Cranky — cheered as they jumped for joy.
A couple of minutes later, the pot in the fireplace began to overflow with foam. Fluttershy walked down to the bottom of the stairs and she became shocked when she saw the pot overflowing and she hurriedly ran over to the fireplace and grabbed a cloth from the mantel and she uses it to protect her hand from the burning pot as she draws it away from the fireplace. Then she uses the cloth to remove the lid of the pot and she grabbed the soup spoon from the mantel as well and used it to get a spoonful of the soup to taste it; checking to see if it's ready. The dwarfs looked down from the railing upstairs, with Snails poking his head through the railing. They all took a few whiffs from the soup's aroma and then they sighed with pleasure.
"Soup! HURRAY!" the dwarfs shouted and they all ran down the stairs, except for Snails, whose head is stuck between the railing and he tries to free himself. The other dwarfs ran like thunder around the table, which is already set with a bread basket complete with rolls and the dwarfs each grab one. Snails finally frees his head from the railing and he ran down the stairs but then trips on his coat for a moment. The other dwarfs are fighting over the bread as Snails gets to the table and he leaps over the chair, inadvertently tipping it over on the floor to which he'd fell.
"Ah-ah-ah-ah! Just a minute!" Fluttershy told the dwarfs. "Supper's not quite ready. You'll just have time to wash."
"Wash?!" the dwarfs exclaimed incredulously and then they murmured to one another with confusion over the concept.
"Hah! Knew there's a catch to it," Cranky said as he threw his spoon on the table in a peeved manner and then he crossed his arms.
"Why wash?" asked Tender.
"What for? We ain't going nowhere," said Cheese.
"It ain't New Year's," said Timber.
"Oh, perhaps you HAVE washed," said Fluttershy.
"Perhaps we... Yes! Perhaps we have," Timber fibbed.
"But, when?" Fluttershy asked unconvincingly.
"When?" Timber questioned and he starts muddling his words. "Uh, recently," he fibbed again and Tender, Hay Fever, Big Mac, and Cheese agreed with Timber as they nodded.
"Yeah, recently!" they said in unison.
"Oh...recently," Fluttershy said and the dwarfs all nodded in agreement. "Let me see your hands," she told the dwarfs, who all became shocked and they put their arms behind their backs and they slowly back up towards the wall, refusing to show Fluttershy their hands.
"Let me see your hands," Fluttershy demanded as she stood before the dwarfs.
Timber is the first to hold both of his hands out, which are filthy.
"Why, Timber..." Fluttershy said with dismay. "I'm surprised."
Timber chuckled nervously as he puts his hands behind his back.
"Come on, let's see them," Fluttershy said to Tender and he held both of his hands out which are filthy as well. "Oh, Tender... My, my, my," she said as Tender's face turned red with embarrassment.
"And you..." Fluttershy said to Hay Fever and he held both of his hands out which are also filthy and Fluttershy clicks her tongue with disappointment.
Cheese rubs his hands on his sides and he held them both out and they too are filthy.
"Worst than I thought," Fluttershy gasped and Cheese became depressed.
Snails jutted out both of his hands — also filthy — but the sleeves of his coat had draped them. Big Mac held both of his hands out — through his beard — and they too are filthy.
"How shocking!" Fluttershy gasped and Big Mac did a double take when he saw his dirty hands and he put them behind his back, grinning sheepishly.
"Goodness me...this will never do," Fluttershy said as Cranky looked at his hand, but doesn't seem to care whether or not if it's dirty and he crosses his arms. "March straight outside and wash, or you'll not get a bite to eat," Fluttershy told the dwarfs as she pointed towards the door, just like a mother strictly ordering her children.
Timber looks at the other dwarfs and he motioned his head, signaling them to head outside and they follow him in a single file line, walking meekly. Snails — still showing off his sleeve-covered hands — does a little twirl as he began following the others, being the last one in line. Cranky, however, stayed put; refusing to go wash as he watches the others walk out the door. Snails, not paying attention to where he's walking, went towards the opposite side of the opened door running smack into something as the sound of cluttering are heard. Snails came out from the opposite side of the door and he went around it, going outside.
"Heh!" Cranky uttered, disgust at how easily they have succumed to Fluttershy's orders. He then faced the other way and saw Fluttershy looking down at him.
"Well... aren't you going to wash?" Fluttershy asked but Cranky says nothing and he turns away from her. "What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" Fluttershy joked, causing Cranky to become surprised at the remark and he looked at Fluttershy with a glare and he ill-manneredly stuck his tongue out at her; showing that it's still in his mouth. Cranky then storms for the door, sticking his nose in the air not looking to where he's walking as he bumped into the narrow side of the door, which made Fluttershy laugh.
"Awww, did you hurt yourself?" she asked Cranky tenderly.
"Hah!" he disdained and he stormed outside and slammed the door shut. He pulls himself up on top of a barrel nearby and he grabbed a piece of wheat from below and he sticks it into his mouth and then he crossed his arms and legs.
"Hah, women!" Cranky revoltedly said and he starts chewing on the wheat.
