影片对白

Gaq: Cinderella's back!

Grand Duke: Oh, dear, they're back!

Prudence: They're back!

Prudence & Grand Duke: They're back!

Prudence: They're back!

Cinderella: We're back!

Prince: Welcome home.

Cinderella: I still can't believe I'm going to live in a castle. Are you sure this isn't just a dream?

Prince: You're a princess now. Princess Cinderella.

King: She won't even know the first thing about being a princess. She just got back from her honeymoon. It's going to be your duty to prepare the girl.

Grand Duke: Your Majesty, I am honored.

King: Not you, ninny. Prudence!

Prudence: Of course not you. He wants the job done right the first time.

King: The royal banquet will be Cinderella's responsibility now.

Prudence: The royal banquet?

King: You'll teach her everything she needs to know.

Prudence: But, Sire, she won't know anything about planning a royal banquet.

Cinderella: I don't know anything about planning a royal banquet. Oh, well. At least I can stay past midnight.

Prince: Perfect! And I'll be right by your side.

King: I have to go? Now?

Prince: Father, I can't just abandon my princess! Not with the royal banquet only two days away.

King: Nonsense! We have important matters of state to attend to. Important matters of state!

Prince: Eh, Father--She hasn't had time to prepare. She's never been a princess before.

Grand Duke: I dare say, Majesty, you do like your banquets just so, eh? It's a great deal to ask of the poor girl.

King: Nonsense!

Prudence: Your Majesty, I can take care of the preparations as I always do.

King: Just show her what to do! We have a princess now. It's her duty to plan the banquet. And the king's duty to…endure it.

Cinderella: Yes, Your Majesty.

King: Now off we go! Thank you.

Prince: I'm sorry I have to rush off.

Cinderella: Don't worry. I'll be fine.

Prince: I know you're gonna surprise us with an incredible feast.

Cinderella: I just hope you're not too surprised.
