**Prologue:**
NARRATOR: Once upon a time, in a
faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had
everything his heart desired, the prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. But
then, one winter's night, an old beggar woman came to the castle and offered
him a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her
haggard appearance, the prince sneered at the gift and turned the old woman
away, but she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found
within. And when he dismissed her again, the old woman's ugliness melted
away to reveal a beautiful enchantress. The prince tried to apologize, but it
was too late, for she had seen that there was no love in his heart, and as
punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast, and placed a powerful
spell on the castle, and all who lived there. Ashamed of his monstrous
form, the beast concealed himself inside his castle, with a magic mirror as his
only window to the outside world. The rose she had offered was truly an
enchanted rose, which would bloom until his twenty-first year. If he could
learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal
fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast
for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair, and lost all
hope, for who could ever learn to love a beast?
(We have seen a progression of
stained glass windows illustrating the narration, as well as BEAST shredding
his portrait. The camera slowly zooms out from the castle and we see the title.
Fade up on the home of BELLE. She exits the front door and begins her walk into
town.)
**Start of Song:
"Bonjour"**
BELLE: Little town, it's a quiet
village
Every day, like the one before
Little town, full of little people
Waking up to say...
TOWNSFOLK 1: Bonjour!
TOWNSFOLK 2: Bonjour!
TOWNSFOLK 3: Bonjour!
TOWNSFOLK 4: Bonjour!
TOWNSFOLK 5: Bonjour!
BELLE: There goes the baker with
his tray like always
The same old bread and rolls to sell
Ev'ry morning just the same
Since the morning that we came
To this poor provincial town...
BAKER: Good morning, Belle!
(BELLE jumps over to the bakery)
BELLE: Morning monsieur!
BAKER: Where are you off to?
BELLE: The bookshop! I just
finished the most wonderful story, about
a beanstalk and an ogre and...
BAKER: (Ignoring her) That's
nice...Marie, the baguettes! Hurry up!!
TOWNSFOLK: Look there she goes,
that girl is strange no question
Dazed and distracted, can't you tell?
WOMAN 1: Never part of any crowd
BARBER: Cause her head's up on
some cloud
TOWNSFOLK: No denying she's a
funny girl, that Belle!
(BELLE jumps on the back of a wagon and rides through town)
DRIVER: Bonjour!
WOMAN 2: Good day!
DRIVER: How is your family?
WOMAN 3: Bonjour!
MERCHANT: Good day!
WOMAN 3: How is your wife?
WOMAN 4: I need six eggs!
MAN 1: That's too expensive!
BELLE: There must be more than
this provincial life!
(BELLE enters the bookshop)
BOOKSELLER: Ah, Belle!
BELLE: Good morning. I've come to
return the book I borrowed.
BOOKSELLER:
(Putting the book back on the shelf)
Finished already?
BELLE: Oh, I couldn't put it
down! Have you got anything new?
BOOKSELLER: (laughing)
Not since yesterday.
BELLE: (on ladder of bookshelf)
That's all right. I'll borrow... this one.
BOOKSELLER: That one? But you've
read it twice!
BELLE: Well it's my favorite!
(BELLE swings off side of ladder, rolling down it's track)
Far off places, daring swordfights, magic spells, a prince in disguise!
BOOKSELLER: (handing her the
book)
Well, if you like it all that much, it's yours!
BELLE: But sir!
BOOKSELLER: I insist!
BELLE: Well thank you. Thank you
very much!
(leaves bookshop)
MEN: (looking in window, then
turning to watch her)
Look there she goes
That girl is so peculiar!
I wonder if she's feeling well!
WOMEN: With a dreamy far-off
look!
MEN: And her nose stuck in a
book!
ALL What a puzzle to the rest of
us is Belle!
(BELLE sits on the edge of a fountain, singing to the sheep
and the washing woman in the background, who leaves)
BELLE: Oh! Isn't this amazing!
It's my favorite part because, you'll see!
Here's where she meets Prince Charming
But she won't discover that it's him 'til chapter three!
WOMAN 5: Now it's no wonder that
her name means 'beauty'
Her looks have got no parallel!
MERCHANT: But behind that fair facade
I'm afraid she's rather odd
Very different from the rest of us...
ALL: She's nothing like the rest
of us
Yes different from the rest of us is Belle
(GEESE flying overhead, one is shot and plummets to the ground. LEFOU runs
over, holds out the bag, and misses catching the prize. He returns to GASTON)
LEFOU: Wow! You didn't miss a
shot, Gaston! You're the
greatest hunter in the whole world!
GASTON: I know!
LEFOU: Huh. No beast alive stands
a chance against
you...and no girl for that matter!
GASTON: It's true, Lefou, and
I've got my sights set on that one!
(pointing to BELLE)
LEFOU: The inventor's daughter?
GASTON: She's the one! The lucky
girl I'm going to marry.
LEFOU: But she's--
GASTON: The most beautiful girl
in town.
LEFOU: I know--
GASTON: And that makes her the
best. And don't I deserve the best?
LEFOU: Well of course, I mean you
do, but I mean...
GASTON: 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
(BELLE walks by and away)
Who is beautiful as me
So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle
BIMBETTES: 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
(BELLE walks easily through the crowd of people in the town,
GASTON struggles to catch up to her)
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: 'scuse me!
MAN 4: I'll get the knife!
GASTON: Please let me through!
WOMAN 4: This bread!
MAN 5: Those fish!
WOMAN 4: It's stale!
MAN 5: They smell!
MAN 6: Madame's mistaken!
BELLE: There must be more than
this provincial life!
ALL: Well maybe so...
GASTON: Just watch I'm going to
make Belle my wife!
(TOWNSFOLK gather around GASTON, and eventually surround him)
ALL: Look there she goes a girl
who's strange but special
A most peculiar mademoiselle
It's a pity and a sin
She doesn't quite fit in!
GROUP 1: But she really is a
funny girl
GROUP 2: A beauty but a funny
girl
ALL: She really is a funny girl!
That Belle!
**End of Song**
GASTON: Hello, Belle.
BELLE: Bonjour Gaston.
(GASTON grabs the book from BELLE)
Gaston, may I have my book, please?
GASTON: How can you read this?
There's no pictures!
BELLE: Well, some people use
their imaginations.
GASTON: Belle, it's about time
you got your head out of those books
(tossing book into the mud)
and paid attention to more important things...like me! The whole town's talking
about it.
(The BIMBETTES, who are looking
on, sigh. BELLE
has picked up the book and is cleaning off the mud)
It's not right for a woman to
read--soon she starts getting ideas... and thinking.
BELLE: Gaston, you are positively
primeval.
GASTON: (Putting his hand around
her shoulders)
Why thank you, Belle. Hey, whaddya say you and me take a walk over to
the tavern and have a look at my hunting trophies.
BELLE: Maybe some other time.
BIMBETTE 1: What's wrong with
her?
BIMBETTE 2: She's crazy!
BIMBETTE 3: He's gorgeous!
BELLE: Please, Gaston. I can't. I
have to get home and help my father.
LEFOU: Ha ha ha, that crazy old
loon, he need all the help he can get!
(GASTON and LEFOU laugh heartily)
BELLE: Don't you talk about my
father that way!
GASTON: Yeah, don't talk about
her father that way!
(He conks LEFOU on the head.)
BELLE: My father's not crazy!
He's a genius!
(Explosion in background.
GASTON and LEFOU continue
laughing. BELLE rushes home and descends into the basement.)
BELLE: Papa?
MAURICE: How on earth did that
happen? Dog gonnit!
(He pulls the barrel off his waist, along with his pants.)
BELLE: Are you all right, Papa?
MAURICE: I'm about ready to give
up on this hunk of junk!
(kicking machine)
BELLE: You always say that.
MAURICE: I mean it, this time.
I'll never get this boneheaded contraption to work.
BELLE: Yes, you will. And you'll
win first prize at the fair tomorrow
MAURICE: Hmmmph!
BELLE: ...and become a world
famous inventor!
MAURICE: You really believe that?
BELLE: I always have.
MAURICE: Well, what are we
waiting for. I'll have this thing fixed in no time.
(sliding under machine)
Hand me that dog-legged clencher there... So, did you have a good time in town
today?
BELLE: I got a new book. Papa, do
you think I'm odd?
MAURICE: My daughter? Odd?
(Appears from under machine with bizarre goggle contraption on his head
distorting his eyes) Where would you get an idea like that?
BELLE: Oh, I don't know. It's
just I'm not sure I fit in here. There's no one I can really talk to.
MAURICE: What about that Gaston?
He's a handsome fellow!
BELLE: He's handsome all right,
and rude and conceited and...Oh Papa, he's not for me!
MAURICE: Well, don't you worry,
cause this invention's going to be the
start of a new life for us.
(Comes out from under machine)
I think that's done it. Now, let's give it a try.
(MACHINE whirs and chops wood, just as it should)
BELLE: It works!
MAURICE: It does? It does!
BELLE: You did it! You really did
it!
MAURICE: Hitch up Phillipe, girl.
I'm off to the fair!
(Log strikes him in the head, knocking him out. Fade to later in the day)
BELLE: Good bye, Papa! Good luck!
MAURICE: Good bye, Belle, and
take care while I'm gone!
(MAURICE and PHILLIPE continue on their journey until they become lost)
MAURICE: We should be there by
now. Maybe we missed a turn. I guess I should have taken a...wait a minute.
(Lifts lantern to illuminate sign giving directions to
Let's go this way!
(PHILLIPE looks right, at a dark, overgrown path, then left
towards a more inviting route, then begins to go left)
MAURICE: Come on, Phillipe! It's
a shortcut. We'll be there in no time!
(PHILLIPE and MAURICE continue through the dark.)
MAURICE: This can't be right.
Where have you taken us, Phillipe? We'd better turn around...and...whoa...whoa
boy, whoa Phillipe. Oh, oh! Look out!
(A swarm of bats fly out of a tree. PHILLIPE runs through the forest
avoiding everything until he almost runs over the edge of a cliff)
MAURICE: Back up! Back up! Back
up! Good boy, good boy. That's good,
that's--back up! Steady. Steady! Hey now. Steady.
(PHILLIPE finally bucks him off.)
Phillipe!
(PHILLIPE runs away, leaving MAURICE on the edge of the cliff.)
Phillipe? Oh no!
(He looks up and sees WOLVES growling at him. MAURICE runs away, being chased
by the WOLVES. He stumbles down a hill, and lands at the gate of a castle. He
grabs the locked gate and tries to shake it open.)
MAURICE: Help! Is someone there?
(The gate opens, and MAURICE runs in. He slams the gate in the faces of the
WOLVES. Leaving his hat on the ground as the rain begins to fall, MAURICE runs
to the castle and bangs on the door. It creaks open and he enters, cautiously.)
MAURICE: Hello? Hello?
(Watching from a table near the entrance are LUMIERE and COGSWORTH)
LUMIERE: (Barely whispering)
Old fellow must have lost his way in the woods.
COGSWORTH: (Also whispering)
Keep quiet! Maybe he'll go away.
MAURICE: Is someone there?
COGSWORTH: Not a word, Lumiere.
Not one word!
MAURICE: I don't mean to intrude,
but I've lost
my horse and I need a place to stay for the night.
LUMIERE: (looking at COGSWORTH
like a child having just found a lost puppy)
Oh Cogsworth, have a heart.
COGSWORTH: Shush shush shhhhh!
(COGSWORTH puts hand over LUMIERE'S mouth, who promptly
proceeds to touch his lit candle hand to COGSWORTH's hand.)
Ow ow Ow OW OW OUCH!!!!!
LUMIERE: Of course, monsieur, you
are welcome here.
MAURICE: (looking around in
confusion)
Who said that?
(He picks up the candlestick for light, not realizing that the speaker is in
his hand)
LUMIERE: (Tapping him on the
shoulder)
Over here!
MAURICE: (Spins around, pulling
LUMIERE to the other side)
Where?
LUMIERE: (Taps MAURICE on the
side of the head. MAURICE looks at LUMIERE.)
Allo!
MAURICE: Oh!!!!
(Startled, he drops LUMIERE onto the floor.)
Incredible!
COGSWORTH: (hopping over)
Well, now you've done it, Lumiere. Splendid, just peachy--aaarrrgghh!
(MAURICE picks up COGSWORTH)
MAURICE: How is this
accomplished?
(He fiddles with COGSWORTH)
COGSWORTH: Put me down! At once!
(MAURICE tickles the bottoms of COGSWORTH's feet. He laughs. He begins to wind
the
spring on the back of COGSWORTH's head, twisting his face around with the clock
hands. MAURICE opens the front of COGSWORTH and begins to play with his
pendulum. COGSWORTH slams the door shut on his finger.)
Sir, close that at once, do you mind!
MAURICE: I beg your pardon, it's
just that I've never
seen a clock that...aah...i mean...aah aah aah-chooo!!!!
(MAURICE sneezes in the face of COGSWORTH, who proceeds to wipe his face off
using his clock hands in a very anachronistic windshield wiper manner.
MAURICE sniffles, indicating the cold he has caught from being in the
rain.)
LUMIERE: Oh, you are soaked to
the bone, monsieur. Come, warm yourself by the fire.
MAURICE: Thank you.
(LUMIERE and MAURICE head towards
the den, with COGSWORTH running after them.)
COGSWORTH: No, no, no, do you
know what the master would do if he finds you here. (BEAST is watching the
action from an overhead
walkway, and rushes off as the trio enters the den.)
I demand that you stop...right...there!
(COGSWORTH tumbles down the steps. MAURICE
takes a seat in a large chair in front of a roaring fire.)
Oh no, not the master's chair!
(FOOTSTOOL rushes past COGSWORTH, barking up a storm.)
I'm not seeing this, I'm not seeing this!
MAURICE: (As FOOTSTOOL rushes up
to him)
Well, hello there, boy.
(FOOTSTOOL props himself up under the feet of
MAURICE. COAT RACK enters and removes his cloak.)
What service!
COGSWORTH: All right, this has
gone far enough. I'm in charge here, and
(COGSWORTH is run over by the (once again)
anachronistic IndyCar sounding teacart of MRS. POTTS)
MRS. POTTS: (Arriving by the side
of MAURICE)
How would you like a nice spot of tea, sir? It'll warm you up in no time.
(Pours tea into cup (CHIP), which hops over into MAURICE's open hand)
COGSWORTH: (from face down
position on carpet)
No! No tea, no tea!!!
CHIP: (As MAURICE sips the tea)
Ha ha! His moustache tickles, momma!
MAURICE: (Startled by the cup)
Oh! Hello!
(The door to the den slams open
and a strong gust of wind blows into the room, extinguishing LUMIERE's flames
and the fire in the fireplace. COGSWORTH dives for cover. MRS. POTTS begins to
shake. CHIP jumps back onto the tea cart and takes refuge from behind his
mother)
CHIP: Uh oh!
(BEAST enters. We see him in full
for the first time.
He is on all fours. He looks around in the darkness.)
BEAST: (Growling his words)
There's a stranger here.
LUMIERE: (who has re-lit his
flames)
Master, allow me to explain. The gentleman was lost in the woods and he was
cold and wet...
(LUMIERE's last sentence is
drowned out by the very loud growl of BEAST,
which puts out his flames once again. LUMIERE looks down, dejected.)
COGSWORTH: (Coming out from under
a rug)
Master, I'd like to take this moment to say...I was against this from the
start.
I tried to stop them, but would they listen to me? No, no, no!
(Again, BEAST's growl drowns out
COGSWORTH. MAURICE
looks to one side of the chair, then to the other and sees BEAST.)
BEAST: Who are you! What are you
doing here?
MAURICE: (Very scared and backing
away from the advancing BEAST)
I was lost in the woods and...
(stares at BEAST)
BEAST: (Advancing on him)
You are not welcome here!
MAURICE: I'm sorry
BEAST: What are you staring at?
MAURICE: (Cowering under BEAST)
Noth-noth-nothing! (Turns to leave)
BEAST: (Racing around and
blocking the entrance with surprising speed)
So, you've come to stare at the beast, have you?
MAURICE: Please, I meant no harm!
I just needed a place to stay .
BEAST: I'll give you a place to
stay!
(BEAST picks up MAURICE, carries
him out of the room and slams the door, plunging the den, along with COGSWORTH,
LUMIERE,MRS. POTTS, and CHIP into darkness. Fade out. Fade in to BELLE's
cottage, seen from P.O.V. of GASTON and LEFOU.)
LEFOU: Heh! Oh boy! Belle's gonna
get the surprise of her life, huh Gaston?
GASTON: Yep. This is her lucky
day!
(GASTON lets go of a branch,
which swings back and hits LEFOU in the mouth. GASTON turns to the band,
wedding guests and others, apparently just out of sight of BELLE's cottage.)
GASTON: I'd like to thank you all
for coming to my wedding.
But first, I better go in there and... propose to the girl!
(MINISTER, BAKER, and OTHERS
laugh heartily. Camera
pans quickly to show BIMBETTES crying their eyes out. To LEFOU)
Now, you Lefou. When Belle and I
come out that door--
LEFOU: Oh I know, I know!
(He turns and begins directing
the band in "Here Comes the Bride."
GASTON slams a baritone over his head.)
GASTON: Not yet!
LEFOU: (From inside the instrument,
with his lips sticking out the mouthpiece)
Sorry!
(Cut to interior of cottage.
BELLE is sitting in a chair reading her new book. There is a knock at the
door. She puts the book down and walks to the door. She reaches up and
pulls down a viewing device. She peeks through and sees an anachronistically
accurate fish-eye view of GASTON. She moans, and pushes the door open.)
BELLE: Gaston, what a
pleasant...surprise.
GASTON: Isn't it though? I'm just
full of surprises. You know, Belle,
There's not a girl in town who wouldn't love to be in your shoes. This is
the day...
(GASTON pauses by a mirror and licks his teeth clean.)
This is the day your dreams come true.
BELLE: What do you know about my
dreams, Gaston?
GASTON: Plenty. Here, picture
this.
(GASTON plops down in the chair
and props his mud-covered feet up on BELLE's book. He begins to kick off his
boots and wiggle his toes through his hole-y socks.)
A rustic hunting lodge, my latest
kill roasting on the fire, and my little wife, massaging my feet, while the
little ones play with the dogs.
(BELLE looks positively disgusted. GASTON gets up next to her face.)
We'll have six or seven.
BELLE: Dogs?
GASTON: No, Belle! Strapping
boys, like me!
BELLE: Imagine that.
(She picks up her book, places a mark in it, and puts it on the shelf.)
GASTON: And do you know who that
wife will be?
BELLE: Let me think...
GASTON: (Corners BELLE )
You, Belle!
BELLE: (Ducking under GASTON'S
arms)
Gaston, I'm speechless. I really don't know what to say.
GASTON: (Pushing chairs and
things out of the way
until he reaches BELLE and traps her against the door)
Say you'll marry me.
BELLE: (Reaching for the
doorknob)
I'm very sorry, Gaston, but I just don't deserve you.
(She twists the knob and the door
opens - this time outward-. BELLE ducks under GASTON as he tumbles out the door
and into the mud. The wedding band begins to play "Here Comes the
Bride." GASTON's boots are thrown out of the door -now opened inward- and
the door is slammed shut. LEFOU, who is directing the band, looks down
and sees GASTON's legs sticking out of the mud, and a
LEFOU: So, how'd it go?
GASTON: (Picks up LEFOU by the
neck)
I'll have Belle for my wife, make no mistake about that!
(GASTON drops LEFOU into the mud.)
LEFOU: (To
Touchy!
(GASTON walks off, dejected, and
the focus returns
to the cottage. BELLE pokes her head out the door.)
**Start of Song:
"Belle Reprise"**
BELLE: (To the chickens)
Is he gone? Can you imagine, he asked me to marry him!
Me, the wife of that boorish, brainless...
Madame Gaston, can't you just see
it
Madame Gaston, his little wife
Not me, no sir, I guarantee it
I want much more than this provincial life...
(BELLE walks into the pen and
feeds the animals, then runs
off singing into an open field overlooking a beautiful valley)
I want adventure in the great
wide somewhere
I want it more than I can tell
And for once it might be grand
To have someone understand
I want so much more than they've got planned
**End of Song**
(PHILLIPE runs into the open
field. BELLE looks at
him, disturbed that MAURICE is not with him.)
BELLE: Phillipe! What are you
doing here? Where's Papa? Where is he, Phillipe?
What happened? Oh, we have to find him, you have to take me to him!
(BELLE unhitches the wagon from
PHILLIPE. Cut to exterior of the castle gate. -How PHILLIPE brought BELLE
there is a mystery, seeing as PHILLIPE never made it to the castle with
MAURICE!-)
BELLE: What is this place?
(PHILLIPE snorts, then begins to
buck as if something
is scaring him. BELLE dismounts and comforts him.)
BELLE: Phillipe, please, steady.
(She enters the gate and sees MAURICE's hat on the ground.)
Papa.
(Cut to interior of castle with COGSWORTH and LUMIERE discussing events.)
COGSWORTH: Couldn't keep quiet,
could we. Just had to invite him
to stay, didn't we? Serve him tea, sit in the master's chair, pet the pooch.
LUMIERE: I was trying to be
hospitable.
(Cut back to door opening and BELLE entering castle.)
BELLE: Hello? Is anyone here?
Hello? Papa? Papa, are you here?
(We follow as BELLE ascends the
grand staircase and searches for her father. Cut
to kitchen where MRS. POTTS is standing next to a tub of hot water. CHIP hops
in.)
CHIP: Momma. There's a girl in
the castle!
MRS. POTTS: Now, Chip, I won't
have you making up such wild stories.
CHIP: But really, momma, I saw
her.
MRS. POTTS: (Disgusted)
Not another word. Into the tub.
(She lifts CHIP into the tub. FEATHERDUSTER enters)
FEATHERDUSTER:
A girl! I saw a girl in the
castle!
CHIP: (poking his head out from
the water)
See, I toooooold ya!
(Cut back to LUMIERE and COGSWORTH bickering)
COGSWORTH: Irresponsible,
devil-may-care, waxy eared, slack-jawed--
BELLE: Papa?
(COGSWORTH and LUMIERE turn to look at the new arrival)
LUMIERE: Did you see that?
(Running to the door and poking his head around the corner with COGSWORTH)
It's a girl!
COGSWORTH: I know it's a girl.
LUMIERE: Don't you see? She's the
one. The girl we
have been waiting for. She has come to break the spell!
(He chases after her.)
COGSWORTH: Wait a minute, wait a
minute!
(BELLE advances down a narrow
hallway. COGSWORTH and LUMIERE sneak up behind
her and open the door that leads to the tower where MAURICE is being kept. The
door creaks open and BELLE hears the sound)
BELLE: Papa? Papa?
(COGSWORTH hides behind the door and LUMIERE rushes off.)
Hello? Is someone here? Wait! I'm looking for my father!
(She begins up the stairs, but doesn't realize that LUMIERE is watching her.)
That's funny, I'm sure there was someone...
I-I-Is there anyone here?
(MAURICE's voice echoes from his cell)
MAURICE: Belle?
BELLE: (Rushes up to the cell to
find him)
Oh, Papa!
MAURICE: How did you find me?
BELLE: Oh, your hands are like
ice. We have to get you out of here.
MAURICE: Belle, I want you to
leave this place.
BELLE: Who's done this to you?
MAURICE: No time to explain. You
must go...now!
BELLE: I won't leave you!
(Suddenly, BEAST grabs BELLE's
shoulder and whips her around. She drops the torch she was carrying into a
puddle and the room is dark except for one beam of light from a skylight.)
BEAST: What are you doing here?
MAURICE: Run, Belle!
BELLE: Who's there? Who are you?
BEAST: The master of this castle.
BELLE: I've come for my father.
Please let him out! Can't you see he's sick?
BEAST: Then he shouldn't have
trespassed here.
BELLE: But he could die. Please,
I'll do anything!
BEAST: There's nothing you can
do. He's my prisoner.
BELLE: Oh, there must be some way
I can...wait! Take me, instead!
BEAST: You! You would take his
place?
MAURICE: Belle! No! You don't
know what you're doing!
BELLE: If I did, would you let
him go?
BEAST: Yes, but you must promise
to stay here forever.
(BELLE ponders the situation and realizes she can't see the captor)
BELLE: Come into the light.
(BEAST drags his legs, then his
whole body into the beam of light. BELLE looks,
her eyes growing wider until she can stand no more and falls back to MAURICE.)
MAURICE: No, Belle. I won't let
you do this!
(BELLE regains her composure,
then steps into the beam of light, giving her a very innocent look)
BELLE: You have my word.
BEAST: (quickly)
Done!
(BEAST moves over to unlock the
cell, and BELLE collapses to the floor with her head
in her hands. We hear the door being unlocked, then MAURICE rushing over to
BELLE.)
MAURICE: No, Belle. Listen to me.
I'm old, I've lived my life--
(BEAST grabs him and drags him downstairs)
BELLE: Wait!
MAURICE: Belle!
BELLE: Wait!
(Cut to exterior. of castle. BEAST drags MAURICE towards PALLENQUIN)
MAURICE: No, please spare my
daughter!
BEAST: She's no longer your
concern.
(BEAST throws MAURICE into the PALLENQUIN.)
Take him to the village.
(The PALLENQUIN breaks the ivy
holding it to the ground,
then slinks off like a spider with MAURICE inside)
MAURICE: Please, let me out,
please!
(Cut to BELLE looking out cell
window at the PALLENQUIN crossing the bridge over the moat. She begins to cry.
Cut to BEAST walking up the stairs. LUMIERE is still at his post.)
LUMIERE: Master?
BEAST: (angrily)
What!
LUMIERE: Since the girl is going
to be with us for quite some time, I
was thinking that you might want to offer her a more comfortable room.
(BEAST growls angrily at him.)
Then again, maybe not.
(BEAST enters the cell where BELLE is still crying.)
BELLE: You didn't even let me say
good bye. I'll
never see him again. I didn't get to say good-bye.
BEAST: (feeling bad)
I'll show you to your room.
BELLE: (surprised)
My room?
(Indicating the cell)
But I thought--
BEAST: You wanna, you wanna stay
in the tower?
BELLE: No.
BEAST: Then follow me.
(BEAST leads BELLE to her room.
As they proceed, BELLE begins to lag behind. She looks at the hideous
sculptures on the walls and the light casting shadows on them. Frightened, she
gasps and runs to catch up with BEAST, who is carrying LUMIERE as a light
source. BEAST looks back at BELLE, and sees a tear form at the corner of her
eye.)
LUMIERE: Say something to her.
BEAST: Hmm? Oh.
(To BELLE)
I...um...hope you like it here.
(He looks at LUMIERE for approval. He motions BEAST to continue.)
The castle is your home now, so you can go anywhere you wish, except the West
Wing.
BELLE: (looking intrigued)
What's in the West Wing?
BEAST: (stopping angrily)
It's forbidden!
(BEAST continues, and BELLE
reluctantly follows. Cut to interior
of BELLE's room, dark. The door opens and light spills in.)
BEAST: (Tenderly)
Now, if there's anything you need, my servants will attend you.
LUMIERE: (whispering in his ear)
Dinner--invite her to dinner.
BEAST: (Growing angry)
You...will join me for dinner. That's not a request!
(BEAST leaves, slamming the door
behind him. BELLE, terrified, runs over to the bed and flings herself onto it,
finally breaking down and crying. Fade to tavern in the town.)
**Start of Song:
"Gaston"**
GASTON: Who does she think she
is? That girl has
tangled with the wrong man. No one says 'no' to Gaston!
LEFOU: Darn right!
GASTON: Dismissed. Rejected.
Publicly humiliated. Why, it's more than I can bear.
(turns chair away)
LEFOU: (Runs in front of him)
More beer?
GASTON: (Turns chair away again)
What for? Nothing helps. I'm disgraced.
LEFOU: Who, you? Never. Gaston,
you've got to pull yourself together.
Gosh it disturbs me to see you, Gaston
Looking so down in the dumps
Every guy here'd love to be you, Gaston
(cheering from the gallery)
Even when taking your lumps
There's no man in town as admired
as you
You're everyone's favorite guy
Everyone's awed and inspired by you
(LEFOU turns chair back to forward)
And it's not very hard to see why!
No one's slick as Gaston, no
one's quick as Gaston
No one's next as incredibly thick as Gaston
For there's no man in town half as manly
Perfect, a pure paragon!
You can ask any Tom, Dick, or Stanley
And they'll tell you who's team they'd prefer to be on!
(LEFOU has pulled a man's belt
off, whose pants fall to the ground. LEFOU jumps up and wraps the belt around
GASTON's neck, who flexes and breaks it off. LEFOU continues to dance around.
OLD CRONIES pick him up and swing him around.)
OLD CRONIES: No one's been like
Gaston, a king-pin like Gaston
LEFOU: No one's got a swell cleft
in his chin like Gaston
GASTON: As a specimen, yes, I'm
intimidating!
OLD CRONIES: My, what a guy that
Gaston!
(OLD CRONIES swing LEFOU back and
forth into the camera.
LEFOU tickles GASTON's chin, who stands with pride)
OLD CRONIES: Give five hurrahs,
give twelve hip-hips
LEFOU: Gaston is the best and the
rest is all drips!
(LEFOU swings up his arm in dance
and throws a mug
of beer in GASTON's face, who socks LEFOU in the face)
ALL: No one fights like Gaston,
no one bites like Gaston
WRESTLER: In a wrestling match,
nobody bites like Gaston
BIMBETTES: For there's no one as
burly and brawny
GASTON: As you see I've got
biceps to spare
LEFOU: Not a bit of him scraggly
or scrawny
GASTON: That's right! And every
last bit of me's covered with hair!
(GASTON fights with the men, then
lifts a bench with the BIMBETTES on it. He
drops the bench on LEFOU, then turns to the camera and reveals his hairy
chest.)
OLD CRONIES: No one hits like
Gaston, matches wits like Gaston
LEFOU: In a spitting match,
nobody spits like Gaston!
GASTON: I'm especially good at
expactorating! Ptooey!
ALL: Ten points for Gaston!
(GASTON plays a chess game with a
man, then hits the board, sending it and pieces all over. He takes a bite of
leather from the belt once wrapped around his neck, chews it and spits it into
a spittoon, which falls and gets stuck on the head of LEFOU.)
GASTON: When I was a lad I ate
four dozen eggs
Every morning to help me get large!
And now that I'm grown, I eat five dozen eggs
So I'm roughly the size of a barge!
(GASTON juggles a number of eggs,
then swallows them whole.
LEFOU attempts the trick, and is hit in the face by three eggs.)
ALL: No one shoots like Gaston,
makes those beauts like Gaston
LEFOU: Then goes tromping around
wearing boots like Gaston
GASTON: I use antlers in all of
my decorating!
(GASTON takes three shots at a
beer barrel, which begins leaking into the mugs of onlookers. He returns
stomping to his chair, where we see the fireplace surrounded by the heads of
the animals he has killed. The mystery cut of music is here! Cut to ending of
"Gaston Reprise" on the soundtrack.)
ALL: My what a guy! Gaston!!!!!!!
(The OLD CRONIES have picked up
the chair and carry GASTON around in it. LEFOU tries to flee, but they toss the
chair into its normal place, and LEFOU is pinned underneath. MAURICE bursts in
frantically)
**End of Song**
**Start of Song:
"Gaston Reprise"**
MAURICE: Help! Someone help me!
OLD MAN: Maurice?
MAURICE: Please! Please, I need
your help! He's got her. He's got her locked in the dungeon.
LEFOU: Who?
MAURICE: Belle. We must go. N-not
a minute to lose!
GASTON: Whoa! Slow down, Maurice.
Who's got Belle locked in a dungeon?
MAURICE: A beast! A horrible,
monstrous beast!
(MAURICE has gone from person to
person, pleading his case, until he is thrown at the feet of GASTON. A moment
of silence, then the OLD CRONIES begin to laugh and mock him.)
CRONY 1: Is it a big beast?
MAURICE: Huge!
CRONY 2: With a long, ugly snout?
MAURICE: Hideously ugly!
CRONY 3: And sharp, cruel fangs?
MAURICE: Yes, yes. Will you help
me?
GASTON: All right, old man. We'll
help you out.
MAURICE: You will? Oh thank you,
thank you!
(The OLD CRONIES pick up MAURICE
and help him out by throwing him through the door.)
CRONY 1: Crazy old Maurice. He's
always good for a laugh!
GASTON: (Very pensive)
Crazy old Maurice, hmm?
Crazy old Maurice.
Hmmm?
Lefou, I'm afraid I've been thinking.
(LEFOU is still under the chair.)
LEFOU: A dangerous pastime--
GASTON: (finishing line)
I know,
But that wacky old coot is Belle's father
And his sanity's only so-so
Now the wheels in my head have
been turning
Since I looked at that loony old man
See I promised myself I'd be married to Belle,
And right now I'm evolving a plan!
(GASTON picks LEFOU out from under the chair and holds his head close, and
whispers)
GASTON: If I...
(whisper)
LEFOU: Yes?
GASTON: Then I...
(whisper)
LEFOU: No, would she?
GASTON: (whispering)
...GUESS!
LEFOU: Now I get it!
BOTH: Let's go!
(They begin a waltz around the floor as they sing)
BOTH: No one plots like Gaston,
takes cheap shots like Gaston
LEFOU: Plans to persecute
harmless crackpots like Gaston
ALL: So his marriage we soon'll
be celebrating!
My what a guy, Gaston!!!
(Camera zooms out through window to snow covered square, empty except for
MAURICE)
MAURICE: (to no one in
particular)
Will no one help me?
(Fade back to the bedroom of the
castle where BELLE is still crying. There is a 'clink clink clink' at the door.
She gets up and walks over to open the door. MRS. POTTS enters with CHIP and
their entourage.)
BELLE: Who is it?
MRS. POTTS: (from outside the
door)
Mrs. Potts, dear.
(Door opens.)
I thought you might like a spot of tea.
BELLE: (amazed at the fact that
she is listening to a walking tea set)
But you...ah...but...I--
(BELLE bumps into the WARDROBE)
WARDROBE: Oof. Careful!
BELLE: (sits on bed)
This is impossible--
WARDROBE: (leans 'shoulder' on
bed, popping other end and BELLE into the air)
I know it is, but here we are!
CHIP: (as sugar and cream are
being poured into him)
Told ya she was pretty, mama, didn't I?
MRS. POTTS: All right, now, Chip.
That'll do.
(CHIP hops over to BELLE, who is sitting on the floor)
Slowly, now. Don't spill!
BELLE: Thank you.
(She picks up CHIP, and is about to take a sip of tea.)
CHIP: (To BELLE)
Wanna see me do a trick?
(CHIP takes a big breath, then puffs out his cheeks and blows bubbles out the
top of the cup.)
MRS. POTTS: (admonishingly)
Chip!
CHIP: (looking guilty)
Oops. Sooorry.
MRS. POTTS: (To BELLE)
That was a very brave thing you did, my dear.
WARDROBE: We all think so.
BELLE: But I've lost my father,
my dreams, everything.
MRS. POTTS: Cheer up, child.
It'll turn out all right in the end. You'll see.
(She looks up, startled.)
Oops! Look at me, jabbering on, when there's a supper to get on the table.
Chip!
CHIP: (hopping away)
Bye!
(BELLE stands and the WARDROBE approaches her.)
WARDROBE: Well now, what shall we
dress you in for dinner? Let's see what I've got in my drawers.
(The doors fly open and moths flutter out. She slams them shut.)
Oh! How embarrassing. Here we are.
(One door opens, the other serves as an arm. It pulls out a pink dress.)
Ah! There, you'll look ravishing in this one!
(Something to think about: We never hear of a King or Queen or parents, so what
is a Prince living on his own doing with a wardrobe full of women's clothing?
I think that he knew that a girl would have to come in order for the
spell to be broken and had clothes made.)
BELLE: That's very kind of you,
but I'm not going to dinner.
WARDROBE: Oh, but you must!
(COGSWORTH waddles in)
COGSWORTH: Ahem, ahem, ahem.
Dinner...is served.
(Cut to BEAST pacing back and forth in front of fire,
with MRS. POTTS and LUMIERE looking on.)
BEAST: What's taking so long? I
told her to come down. Why isn't she here yet?!?
MRS. POTTS: Oh, try to be
patient, sir. The girl
has lost her father and her freedom all in one day.
LUMIERE: Uh, master. Have you
thought that, perhaps,
this girl could be the one to break the spell?
BEAST: (angrily)
Of course I have. I'm not a fool.
LUMIERE: Good. You fall in love
with her, she falls in love with you, and--Poof!--the spell is broken! We'll be
human again by midnight!
(That sounds like a good title for a song-- "Human Again" - it's a
broadway thing!)
MRS. POTTS: Oh, it's not that
easy, Lumiere. These things take time.
LUMIERE: But the rose has already
begun to wilt.
BEAST: It's no use. She's so
beautiful, and I'm so...well, look at me!
(LUMIERE shrugs his shoulders and looks at MRS. POTTS.)
MRS. POTTS: Oh, you must help her
to see past all that.
BEAST: I don't know how.
MRS. POTTS: Well, you can start
by making yourself more
presentable. Straighten up, try to act like a gentleman.
(BEAST sits up, then straightens his face very formally)
LUMIERE: (adding in)
Ah yes, when she comes in, give her a dashing, debonair smile. Come, come. Show
me the smile. (BEAST bears his ragged fangs in a scary, and yet funny grin.)
MRS. POTTS: But don't frighten
the poor girl.
LUMIERE: Impress her with your
rapier wit.
MRS. POTTS: But be gentle.
LUMIERE: Shower her with
compliments.
MRS. POTTS: But be sincere
LUMIERE: And above all...
BOTH: You must control your
temper!
(The door creaks open. BEAST wipes the silly face off, and looks to the door
expectantly.)
LUMIERE: Here she is!
(COGSWORTH enters.)
COGSWORTH: Uh, good evening.
(BEAST goes from expectant to mad.)
BEAST: (growling)
Well, where is she?
COGSWORTH: (buying time)
Who? Oh! The girl. Yes, the, ah, girl. Well, actually, she's in the process of,
ah, um, circumstances being what they are, ah... she's not coming.
(Cut to exterior of den with door slightly ajar)
BEAST: WHAT!!!!!!!
(Door bangs open and BEAST comes running out, with OBJECTS giving chase)
COGSWORTH: Your grace! Your
eminence! Let's not be hasty!
(Cut to exterior of BELLE's room. BEAST runs up to it and bangs on the door.)
BEAST: (Yelling)
I thought I told you to come down to dinner!
BELLE: (From behind the door)
I'm not hungry.
BEAST: You'll come out or
I'll...I'll break down the door!
LUMIERE: (interrupting)
Master, I could be wrong, but that may not be the best way to win the girl's
affections.
COGSWORTH: (pleading)
Please! Attempt to be a gentleman.
BEAST: (growing angrier)
But she is being so...difficult!
MRS. POTTS: Gently, gently.
BEAST: (very dejected)
Will you come down to dinner?
BELLE: No!
(BEAST looks at the OBJECTS, with
an expression that says "SEE?!".)
COGSWORTH: Suave. Genteel.
BEAST: (Trying to act formal, bowing
at the door)
It would give me great pleasure if you would join me for dinner.
COGSWORTH: Ahem, ahem, we say
'please.'
BEAST: (once again dejected)
...please.
BELLE: (Mad at BEAST)
No, thank you.
BEAST: (furious)
You can't stay in there forever!
BELLE: (provokingly)
Yes I can!
BEAST: Fine! Then go ahead and
STARVE!!!!
(To OBJECTS)
If she doesn't eat with me, then she doesn't eat at all!
(BEAST runs back down the hall,
slamming a door
and causing a piece of the ceiling to fall on LUMIERE.)
MRS. POTTS: That didn't go very
well at all, did it.
COGSWORTH: Lumiere, stand watch
at the door and
inform me at once if there is the slightest change.
LUMIERE: (Taking guard position
next to door)
You can count on me, mon capitan.
COGSWORTH: Well, I guess we
better go downstairs and start cleaning up.
(Cut to interior of BEAST's lair. BEAST enters, knocking over and destroying
things in his path.)
BEAST: I ask nicely, but she
refuses. What a...what does she want me to do--beg?
(Picking up the MAGIC MIRROR)
Show me the girl.
(The MAGIC MIRROR shines, then
glows green and
reveals BELLE in her bedroom, talking to the WARDROBE)
WARDROBE: (in mirror pleading)
Why the master's not so bad once you get to know him. Why don't you give him a
chance?
BELLE: (still disturbed by the
attack)
I don't want to get to know him.
I don't want to have anything to do with him!
BEAST: (setting down MAGIC
MIRROR, speaking tenderly)
I'm just fooling myself. She'll never see me as anything...but a monster.
(Another petal falls off the rose.)
It's hopeless.
(BEAST puts his head in his hands
as in a depressed state. Fade out/Fade in to exterior of BELLE's room. Door
creaks open. BELLE silently emerges. We see her feet go by as three bright
spots shine through a curtain at floor level. Behind it are LUMIERE and
FEATHERDUSTER.)
FEATHERDUSTER: Oh, no!
LUMIERE: Oh, yes!
FEATHERDUSTER: Oh, no!
LUMIERE: Oh, yes, yes, yes!
FEATHERDUSTER: I've been
burnt by you before!
(LUMIERE and FEATHERDUSTER have
emerged and LUMIERE takes her in his arms. Suddenly he looks up and sees
BELLE walking down the hall. He drops FEATHERDUSTER.)
FEATHERDUSTER: Oof!
LUMIERE: Zut alors! She has
emerged!
(Cut to kitchen, where we find COGSWORTH,MRS. POTTS,CHIP and the STOVE.)
MRS. POTTS: Come on, Chip. Into
the cupboard with your brothers and sisters.
(helping him in)
CHIP: But I'm not sleepy.
MRS. POTTS: Yes you are.
CHIP: No, I'm...not.
(He falls asleep and MRS. POTTS shuts the cupboard door.
A banging of pots and pans comes from the STOVE.)
STOVE: I work and I slave all
day, and for what? A culinary masterpiece gone to waste.
MRS. POTTS: Oh, stop your
grousing. It's been a long night for all of us.
COGSWORTH: Well, if you ask me,
she was just
being stubborn. After all, the master did say 'please.'
MRS. POTTS: But if the master
doesn't learn to control that temper, he'll never break the--
(BELLE enters, and COGSWORTH cuts off MRS. POTTS before she can say 'spell.')
COGSWORTH: (interrupting)
Splendid to see you out and about, mademoiselle.
(LUMIERE comes running in.)
I am Cogsworth, head of the household.
(He leans over to kiss her hand, but LUMIERE butts in front of him.)
This is Lumiere.
LUMIERE: En chante, cherie.
COGSWORTH: (trying to talk around
LUMIERE who is still kissing BELLE's hand)
If there's anything...stop that...that we can...please
(finally shoving him out of the way)
...to make your stay more comfortable.
(LUMIERE burns the hand of COGSWORTH) Ow!!!!
BELLE: I am a little hungry.
MRS. POTTS: (excited, to the
other tea pots)
You are? Hear that? She's hungry. Stoke the fire, break out the silver, wake
the china.
(The fire on the STOVE roars to
life, and drawers
open to reveal silverware standing at attention.)
COGSWORTH: (secretively)
Remember what the master said.
MRS. POTTS: Oh, pish tosh. I'm
not going to let the poor child go hungry.
COGSWORTH: (thinking he is giving
in to the ultimate demand)
Oh, all right. Glass of water, crust of bread, and then--
LUMIERE: Cogsworth, I am
surprised at you. She's not our prisoner. She's our guest. We must make her
feel welcome here.
(to BELLE)
Right this way, mademoiselle.
COGSWORTH: Well keep it down. If
the master finds out about this, it will be our necks!
LUMIERE: Of course, of course.
But what is dinner without a little music?
(LUMIERE has started out the swinging door. He lets it close, and the door hits
COGSWORTH and sends him across the room to land in a pan filled with -what
looks like- pancake batter. He screams his line as he is in flight.)
COGSWORTH: MUSIC!?!
(Cut to dining room, where BELLE
is seated at the end of a long
table. LUMIERE is on the table and a spotlight shines on him.)
**Start of Song: "Be
Our Guest**
LUMIERE: Ma chere, mademoiselle.
It is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure that I welcome you tonight. And
now, we invite you to relax. Let us pull up a chair as the dining room proudly
presents...your dinner.
Be our guest, be our guest
Put our service to the test,
tie your napkin 'round your neck, cherie
and we provide the rest!
(The CHAIR has wrapped a napkin
around the neck of BELLE, who takes it off and places it on her lap. The
CHAIR's arms put it's hands on it's 'waist' as if it were mad.
Soup du jour, hot hors d'oeuvres
Why we only live to serve
Try the grey stuff, it's delicious
Don't believe me? Ask the dishes!
(LUMIERE offers BELLE a plate of hors d'oeuvres. She dips her finger in one,
and tastes it.)
They can sing, they can dance
After all, miss, this is
And a dinner here is never second best!
Go on unfold your menu, take a glance and then you'll
Be our guest, be our guest, be our guest!
(A cabinet at the end of the
table opens to reveal a large
Beef ragout, cheese souffle,
Pie and pudding en flambe!
We'll prepare and serve with flair
A culinary cabaret!
(Plates of food go dancing by,
with COGSWORTH in the pudding. LUMIERE
sets his torch to it, and it explodes, turning COGSWORTH's face black with
soot.)
You're alone and you're scared,
But the banquet's all prepared!
No one's gloomy or complaining,
While the flatware's entertaining!
(The FLATWARE enters a 'Busby Berlkley-esque' swimming scene.)
We tell jokes, I do tricks
With my fellow candlesticks
(LUMIERE, standing on a plate, is
elevated and
begins to juggle his candles. MUGS enter the shot.)
MUGS: And it's all in perfect
taste
That you can bet!!!
(The MUGS begin a gymnastics
routine, hopping over
one another and passing a beverage from one to the next)
ALL: Come on and lift your glass,
You've won your own free pass
To be our guest, be our guest, be our guest!
LUMIERE: If you're stressed, it's
fine dining we suggest!
ALL: Be our guest, be our guest,
be our guest!
(ALL leave except COGSWORTH, who
looks scared, then
begins to inch away. LUMIERE enters and holds him there.)
LUMIERE: Life is so unnerving,
For a servant who's not serving!
He's not whole without a soul to wait upon
COGSWORTH: Get off!
LUMIERE: Ah, those good old days
when we were useful
Suddenly, those good old days are gone.
(LUMIERE sings as if he were
reminiscing. Snow begins to fall. COGSWORTH
looks up and sees the salt and pepper shakers doing their thing.)
LUMIERE: Ten years we've been
rusting
Needing so much more than dusting
Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills!
(LUMIERE dusts the salt of the
head of COGSWORTH,
who tries to escape. He trips and falls into the gelatin mold.)
Most days just lay around the
castle,
Flabby fat and lazy
You walked in, and oops-a-daisie!
(LUMIERE jumps on a spoon in the
gelatin, which catapults COGSWORTH out of the mold. Cut to kitchen, where MRS.
POTTS is surrounded by soap bubbles.)
MRS. POTTS: It's a guest, it's a
guest!
Sakes alive, well I'll be blessed!
Wine's been poured and thank the Lord
I've had the napkins freshly pressed!
(MRS. POTTS continues to dance around the kitchen)
With dessert, she'll want tea,
And my dear, that's fine with me!
While the cups do their soft shoeing,
I'll be bubbling, I'll be brewing!
I'll get warm, piping hot
Heaven's sake, is that a spot?
Clean it up, we want the company impressed!
We've got a lot to do--
Is it one lump or two?
For you our guest!
(MRS. POTTS is cleaned off by a
napkin. She hops onto the tea
cart and rolls into the dining room, where she offers tea to BELLE.)
ALL: She's our guest!
MRS. POTTS: She's our guest!
ALL: She's our guest!
Be our guest! Be our guest!
Our command is your request!
It's ten years since we had anybody here
And we're obsessed!
With your meal, with your ease,
Yes indeed, we aim to please
While the candlelight's still glowing
Let us help you, we'll keep going--
(The
choreographed dance sequence, ending in a close up of LUMIERE.)
ALL (especially. LUMIERE):
Course, by course
One by one
'Til you shout "Enough, I'm done!"
Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest
Tonight you'll prop your feet up,
But for let's eat up
Be our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest! Please Be our guest!!
(A fantastic ending comes of the
song, with SILVERWARE flying through the air, PLATES and FEATHERDUSTERS
dancing, and COGSWORTH the focus of attention, until LUMIERE comes sliding in
and sends him flying out of camera range.)
BELLE: Bravo! That was wonderful!
COGSWORTH: Thank you, thank you,
mademoiselle. Yes, good show, wasn't it everyone. (Looking at his own face)
Oh, my goodness, will you look at the time. Now, it's off to bed, off to bed!
(LUMIERE comes up next to COGSWORTH.)
BELLE: Oh, I couldn't possibly go
to bed now. It's my first time in an enchanted castle.
COGSWORTH: Enchanted? Who said
anything about the castle being enchanted?
(He tries to cover it up, just as a fork runs past. To LUMIERE)
It was you, wasn't it!
BELLE: I, um, figured it out for
myself.
(COGSWORTH and LUMIERE have been
fighting. They both look at her, then stop. COGSWORTH dusts himself off, and
LUMIERE fixes his wax nose.)
I'd like to look around, if that's all right.
LUMIERE: (excited)
Oh! Would you like a tour?
COGSWORTH: Wait a second, wait a
second. I'm not sure that's such a good idea. (Confidentially, to LUMIERE)
We can't let her go poking around in certain places, if you know what I mean.
BELLE: (Poking COGSWORTH in the
belly -like the Pillsbury doughboy-)
Perhaps you could take me. I'm sure you know everything there is to know about
the castle.
COGSWORTH: (flattered)
Well, actually, ah yes, I do!
(Fade to COGSWORTH, LUMIERE, and BELLE walking
down a hall with FOOTSTOOL. COGSWORTH is lecturing.)
COGSWORTH: As you can see, the
pseudo facade was stripped away to reveal a minimalist rococo design. Note the
unusual inverted vaulted ceilings. This is yet another example of the
neo-classic baroque period, and as I always say, if it's not baroque, don't fix
it! Ha ha ha. Now then, where was I?
(He turns to find the heads of the SUITS OF ARMOR have turned to follow BELLE.)
As you were!
(They all snap back to face forward.)
Now, if I may draw your attention to the flying buttresses above
the--mademoiselle?
(COGSWORTH turns back to the
group and is one girl short. He sees her beginning to climb the grand
staircase. He and LUMIERE run up to her and jump in front of her, blocking her
progress upstairs.)
BELLE: What's up there?
COGSWORTH: Where? Up there?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing
of interest at all in the West Wing. Dusty, dull, very boring.
(LUMIERE has been shaking his
head, but
COGSWORTH nudges him and he nods in agreement.)
BELLE: Oh, so that's the West
Wing.
LUMIERE: (To COGSWORTH)
Nice going!
BELLE: I wonder what he's hiding
up there.
LUMIERE: Hiding? The master is
hiding nothing!
BELLE: Then it wouldn't be
forbidden.
(She steps over them, but they dash up and block her again.)
COGSWORTH: Perhaps mademoiselle
would like to see something else.
We have exquisite tapestries dating all the way back to...
BELLE: (again stepping over them)
Maybe later.
LUMIERE: (with COGSWORTH, again
dashing and blocking)
The gardens, or the library perhaps?
BELLE: (Now, with incredible
interest)
You have a library?
COGSWORTH: (Thrilled that he has
found something to interest her)
Oh yes! Indeed!
LUMIERE: With books!
COGSWORTH: Gads of books!
LUMIERE: Mountains of
books!
COGSWORTH: Forests of
books!
LUMIERE: Cascades...
COGSWORTH: ...of books!
LUMIERE: Swamps of books!
COGSWORTH: More books than
you'll ever be able to read in a lifetime! Books on every subject ever
studied, by every author who ever set pen to paper...
(LUMIERE and COGSWORTH begin
marching off, and BELLE begins to follow, but her curiosity overtakes her, and
she turns back to the West Wing. Her excitement begins to dwindle, though, when
she enters the hallway leading to BEAST's lair. As she walks down the
hall, she stops to look in a mirror that has been shattered into several
pieces, each one reflecting her concerned look. She reaches the end of the hall
and finds a closed door with gargoyle handles. She takes a deep breath, then
reaches out and opens the door. Cut to interior of lair, where BELLE begins to
explore. She is truly shocked by everything she sees. She wanders around,
looking, and knocks over a table, but she catches it before it crashes to the floor.
She then turns her head and sees a shredded picture on the wall. We can only
see part of a portrait. It is the same portrait that was shredded in the
opening. BELLE reaches out and lifts the shreds of the picture to reveal the
prince. We never see this, however, for then she turns her head and sees the
rose under the bell jar. She walks over to it, her eyes transfixed. She reaches
out, then lifts off the jar, leaving the rose unprotected. She reaches up,
brushes back the strand of hair that has been
repeatedly falling on her forehead, then reaches out to touch the rose. As she
nears it, a shadow falls over her. BEAST has been on the balcony, and sees her.
He jumps back into the room, then slams the jar back on the rose. He then
turns his attention to BELLE.)
BEAST: (growing angry)
Why did you come here?
BELLE: (Backing away, scared)
I'm sorry,
BEAST: I warned you never to come
here!
BELLE: I didn't mean any harm.
BEAST: (Angrier)
Do you realize what you could have done? (Begins to thrash at the furniture)
BELLE: (Pleading, but still
scared)
Please, stop! No!
BEAST: (Screaming)
Get out!!!! GET OUT!!!!
(BELLE turns and flees the room.
BEAST calms down, then falls into despair, finally realizing that he may have
destroyed his chances with BELLE. She reaches the stairway and grabs her cloak.
She rushes down the stairs, wrapping the cloak around her and bursting past a
confused LUMIERE and COGSWORTH .)
LUMIERE: Wh- Where are you going?
BELLE: Promise or no promise, I
can't stay here another minute!
COGSWORTH: Oh no, wait, please
wait!
(LUMIERE tries to respond, but
BELLE slams the door behind her. He and COGSWORTH both bow their heads in
sadness. Cut to BELLE outside in the forest on PHILLIPE. She begins to ride
through the forest, but PHILLIPE comes to a stop. She looks up and sees the
WOLVES. She gasps, then pulls the reins and begins to flee. She runs from side
to side, making the WOLVES hit the trees (a la Speederbike chase in Return of
the Jedi). PHILLIPE runs out on a frozen pond, but his and BELLE's weight
collapse the ice. The WOLVES chase her into the water. Some begin to drown, but
PHILLIPE is able to get out of the water before anything serious happens. He
runs into a clearing, but becomes surrounded by WOLVES. He bucks, throwing
BELLE off and wrapping the reins around a tree branch. The WOLVES begin their
attack on PHILLIPE, but BELLE comes to his rescue and beats them away with a
stick. One WOLF grabs the stick in its mouth and breaks half of it off, leaving
BELLE defenseless. Another leaps at her, grabbing the corner of her cloak and
dragging her to the ground. She looks up and sees a WOLF about to jump on
top of her. It leaps and is caught in mid-air by BEAST. He throws the WOLF
away, then stands behind them and BELLE. They lunge at each other. One rips a
hole in BEAST's shoulder, and the others focus their attack on that spot.
Finally, BEAST throws a WOLF against a tree, knocking it out. The others turn
and run in fear. BEAST turns back to BELLE, looks at her despairingly, then
collapses. BELLE, grateful to be alive, turns back to PHILLIPE and begins to
get on, but her conscience takes over, and she walks over to the fallen BEAST.
Fade to BELLE and PHILLIPE walking back to the castle, with BEAST on the
horse's back. Fade to interior of den, with BELLE pouring hot water out of MRS.
POTTS. She soaks a rag in the water, then turns to BEAST, who is licking his
wounds.)
BELLE: Here now. Oh, don't do
that.
(BEAST growls at her as she tries to clean the wound with her rag.)
Just...hold still.
(She touches the rag to the wound
and BEAST roars in pain. The OBJECTS,
who have been watching, jump back into hiding from the outburst.)
BEAST: That hurts!
BELLE: (In counterpoint)
If you'd hold still, it wouldn't hurt as much.
BEAST: Well if you hadn't run
away, this wouldn't have happened!
BELLE: Well if you hadn't
frightened me, I wouldn't have run away!
BEAST: (Opens his mouth to
respond, but has to stop and think of a good line)
Well you shouldn't have been in the West Wing!
BELLE: Well you should learn to
control your temper!
(BEAST raises his hand to bring
out another point, but finds he has none, so he bows his head down again. The
OBJECTS emerge from their hiding as BELLE has conquered the ferocious temper of
BEAST. BELLE moves the rag closer to the wound)
Now, hold still. This may sting a
little.
(BEAST gives a surprised grunt,
then grits his teeth
as the rag is applied. BELLE speaks tenderly.)
By the way, thank you, for saving
my life.
(BEAST opens his eyes, looking surprised.)
BEAST: (Also very tenderly)
You're welcome.
(Camera zooms out and we see the
OBJECTS looking on with interest. Fade to GASTON's tavern, which is empty
except for GASTON, LEFOU and MONSIEUR D'ARQUE, who are all sitting at a table.)
D'ARQUE: I don't usually leave
the asylum in the middle
of the night, but they said you'd make it worth my while.
(GASTON pulls out a sack of gold
and tosses it in front of
him. He takes out a piece, scrapes it on his chin and continues.)
Aah, I'm listening.
GASTON: It's like this. I've got
my heart set on marrying Belle, but she needs a little persuasion.
LEFOU: (butting in)
Turned him down flat!
(GASTON slams a beer mug on his head.)
GASTON: Everyone knows her
father's a lunatic.
He was in here tonight raving about a beast in a castle...
D'ARQUE: Maurice is harmless.
GASTON: The point is, Belle would
do anything to keep him from being locked up.
LEFOU: Yeah, even marry him!
(GASTON gives him another threatening look, and he ducks back under the mug.)
D'ARQUE: So you want me to throw
her father in the asylum unless she agrees to marry you? (They both nod in
agreement.)
Oh, that is despicable. I love it!
(Cut to int of BELLE's cottage. MAURICE is packing to leave.)
MAURICE: If no one will help me,
then I'll go back alone. I don't care
what it takes. I'll find that castle and somehow I'll get her out of there.
(MAURICE leaves on his journey.
Seconds later, GASTON and LEFOU arrive with D'ARQUE. They enter the house
looking for one of the residents.)
GASTON: Belle! Maurice!
LEFOU: Oh, well, I guess it's not
gonna work after all.
(GASTON grabs him by the neck and walks outside.)
GASTON: They have to come back
sometime, and when they do, we'll be ready for them. (Drops LEFOU into a
snowbank by the porch)
Lefou, don't move from that spot until Belle and her father come home.
LEFOU: But, but... aww, nuts!
(He pounds the side of the house
and a pile of snow falls on his head. Fade to exterior of castle. BELLE
is playing in the snow with PHILLIPE and FOOTSTOOL. BEAST, COGSWORTH and
LUMIERE watch from the balcony.)
BEAST: I've never felt this way
about anyone.
(Looks excited)
I want to do something for her.
(Looks discouraged.)
But what?
COGSWORTH: Well, there's the
usual things--flowers,
chocolates, promises you don't intend to keep...
LUMIERE: Ahh, no no. It has to be
something very special.
Something that sparks her inter--wait a minute.
(Cut to interior hallway leading to library. BEAST and BELLE are alone.)
BEAST: Belle, there's something I
want to show you.
(Begins to open the door, then stops.)
But first, you have to close your eyes.
(She looks at him questioningly.)
It's a surprise.
(BELLE closes her eyes, and BEAST
waves his hand in
front of her. Then he opens the door. He leads her in.)
BELLE: (Just as she enters the
room)
Can I open them?
BEAST: No, no. Not yet. Wait
here.
(BEAST walks away to draw back
the curtains. He does, and brilliant sunlight
spills into the room. BELLE flinches reflexively as the light hits her face.)
BELLE: Now can I open them?
BEAST: All right. Now.
(BELLE opens her eyes and the camera pulls back to reveal the gigantic library
filled with books.)
BELLE: I can't believe it. I've
never seen so many books in all my life!
BEAST: You--you like it?
BELLE: It's wonderful.
BEAST: Then it's yours.
BEAST: Oh, thank you so much.
(Cut to BELLE and BEAST in
background, with
OBJECTS including CHIP in foreground watching them.)
MRS. POTTS: Oh, would you look at
that?
LUMIERE: Ha ha! I knew it would
work.
CHIP: What? What works?
COGSWORTH: It's very encouraging.
FEATHERDUSTER: Isn't this
exciting!
CHIP: I didn't see anything.
MRS. POTTS: Come along, Chip.
There's chores to be done in the kitchen.
CHIP: But what are they talking
about? What's going on?
(OBJECTS walk away. Fade to
breakfast table with BELLE at one end and BEAST at the other, with MRS. POTTS
between them. BELLE is served breakfast, and as she begins to eat, she looks at
BEAST, gobbling up his food with no table manners whatsoever. CHIP laughs, but
MRS. POTTS shoots him an admonishing look. BELLE turns away and tries to ignore
it, but CHIP comes to the rescue. He nudges the spoon with his nose, and BEAST
reaches out for it. BELLE looks at him in wonder as he tries to eat with the
spoon, but he has little success. Finally, BELLE puts down her spoon and
lifts her bowl as if in a toast. BEAST looks at the compromise and does the
same. They both begin to sip their breakfast out of their bowls. Fade to
courtyard where BELLE and BEAST are feeding the birds.)
*Start of Song:
"Something There"**
BELLE: There's something sweet
And almost kind
But he was mean
And he was coarse and unrefined.
But now he's dear
And so unsure,
I wonder why I didn't see it there before.
(BELLE is trying to attract some
birds to BEAST, who shoves a handful of seed at them. Finally, she takes a
handful and gently spreads it out, creating a trail. One lands in his
hands, and he looks up thrilled.)
BEAST: She glanced this way
I thought I saw
And when we touched
She didn't shudder at my paw
No it can't be
I'll just ignore
But then she's never looked at me that way before.
(BELLE has ducked around a tree,
leaving BEAST with the birds. She begins to look doubtful again, but turns her
head around the tree and laughs. BEAST is covered with birds.)
BELLE: New, and a bit alarming
Who'd have ever thought that this could be?
True, that he's no Prince Charming
But there's something in him that I simply didn't see.
(BELLE throws a snowball at
BEAST, who had looked at her proudly after the birds flew away. He begins to
gather a large pile of snow. We cut to the OBJECTS, looking out of a window at
the two. In the background, BELLE throws another snowball at BEAST, who drops
his huge pile of snow on his head. He chases her around a tree, but she ducks
around the other side and sneaks up on him from behind.)
LUMIERE: Well who'd have thought?
MRS. POTTS: Well bless my soul.
COGSWORTH: And who'd have known?
MRS. POTTS: Well who indeed?
LUMIERE: And who'd have guessed
they'd come together on their own?
MRS. POTTS: It's so peculiar
ALL: We'll wait and see
A few days more
There may be something there that wasn't there before
(Fade to den where BELLE sits in
front of a roaring fire and
reads to BEAST. OBJECTS including CHIP watch from doorway)
COGSWORTH: Yes, perhaps there's
something there that wasn't there before.
CHIP: What?
MRS. POTTS: There may be
something there that wasn't there before.
CHIP: What's there, mama?
MRS. POTTS: I'll tell you when
you're older.
**End of Song**
(Cut to interior of BEAST's lair.
He is in the tub getting washed
up for the big night with BELLE. LUMIERE is there with him.)
LUMIERE: Tonight is the night!
BEAST: (hesitantly)
I'm not sure I can do this.
LUMIERE: You don't have time to
be timid. You must be bold, daring.
BEAST: Bold. Daring.
(BEAST has emerged from the tub and shakes himself dry.)
LUMIERE: There will be music.
Romantic candlelight,
provided myself, and when the time is right, you confess your love.
BEAST: (Inspired, repeating
LUMIERE's instructions)
Yes, I, I con-- No, I can't.
LUMIERE: You care for the girl,
don't you?
BEAST: More than anything.
LUMIERE: Well then you must tell
her.
(COATRACK has been cutting BEAST's hair. It finishes and steps back.)
Voila. You look so...so...
(Cut to shot of BEAST in pig-tails and bows.)
BEAST: Stupid.
LUMIERE: Not quite the word I was
looking for. Perhaps a little more off the top.
(COATRACK begins to cut and chop again. COGSWORTH enters.)
COGSWORTH: Ahem ahem ahem. Your
lady awaits.
(Cut to grand staircase, where
BELLE descends from the West Wing side in a glittering gold ball gown. She
reaches the landing and looks up at BEAST, who is standing at the top of the
stairs in his dress clothes. He is nudged on by LUMIERE from behind the
curtain, and he descends and meets BELLE at the landing. Arm in arm, they
descend the last section of stairs and continue on their way to dinner,
stopped momentarily by FOOTSTOOL. MRS. POTTS sings from her cart with CHIP on
board.)
**Start of Song:
"Beauty and the Beast"**
MRS. POTTS: Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends unexpectedly.
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared, beauty and the beast.
(BELLE and BEAST have moved into
the ballroom, where they move through a perfect dance sequence. BEAST
occasionally looks over at LUMIERE and COGSWORTH for their approval. MRS. POTTS
and CHIP are in the ballroom on their cart.)
MRS. POTTS:
Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before,
ever just as sure
As the sun will rise
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange,
Finding you can change,
Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time,
Song as old as rhyme,
Beauty and the beast.
Tale as old as time,
Song as old as rhyme,
Beauty and the beast.
(To CHIP)
Off to the cupboard with you now, Chip. It's past your bedtime. Good night,
love.
**End of Song**
(CHIP slides off the end of the
cart, and hops out of the room, but comes back for one
last look. BELLE and BEAST have adjourned to the balcony under a starry night.)
BEAST: Belle? Are you happy here
with me?
BELLE: (Hesitantly)
Yes.
(She looks off into the distance)
BEAST: What is it?
BELLE: (Looks at him desperately)
If only I could see my father again,
just for a moment. I miss him so much.
BEAST: (Looks disappointed for a
moment, then excited.)
There is a way.
(The pair adjourn to BEAST's lair, where BEAST hands BELLE the MAGIC MIRROR.)
BEAST: This mirror will show you
anything, anything you wish to see.
BELLE: (Hesitantly)
I'd like to see my father, please.
(The MAGIC MIRROR shines into
life, and BELLE turns her head away as it flashes. Then it reveals
MAURICE fallen in the woods, coughing and lost. BELLE is shocked. BEAST looks
at her with concern.)
BELLE: Papa. Oh, no. He's sick,
he may be dying. And he's all alone.
(BEAST turns, then looks at the rose, deep in thought.)
BEAST: Then...then you must go to
him.
BELLE: What did you say?
BEAST: I release you. You are no
longer my prisoner.
BELLE: (In amazement)
You mean...I'm free?
BEAST: Yes.
BELLE: Oh, thank you.
(To MAGIC MIRROR)
Hold on, Papa. I'm on my way.
(BELLE turns to leave, then turns back and pushes the MAGIC MIRROR back to
BEAST.)
BEAST: Take it with you, so
you'll always have a way to look back, and remember me.
BELLE: Thank you for
understanding how much he needs me.
(BELLE turns to leave and BEAST
looks down in depression. She touches her hand to his cheek and rushes out. We
see BELLE's skirt fly past COGSWORTH, who has entered the room.)
COGSWORTH: Well, your highness. I
must say
everything is going just peachy. I knew you had it in you.
BEAST: (Very sad)
I let her go.
COGSWORTH: Ha ha ha, yes.
Splend--
(COGSWORTH stops in the middle of his sentence.)
You what? How could you do that?
BEAST: I had to.
COGSWORTH: (Still amazed)
Yes, but why?
BEAST: Because, I love her.
(Cut to COGSWORTH telling the rest of the OBJECTS about BEAST's decision.)
ALL (except COGSWORTH): He
did what?!?!
COGSWORTH: Yes, I'm afraid it's
true.
CHIP: She's going away?
LUMIERE: But he was so close.
MRS. POTTS: After all this time,
he's finally learned to love.
LUMIERE: That's it, then. That
should break the spell.
MRS. POTTS: But it's not enough.
She has to love him in return.
COGSWORTH: And now it's too late.
(Cut to BEAST watching BELLE
leave from above. He roars in sorrow and anger. His roar turns into the
sound of the wind. BELLE is out in the snow, calling out "Papa?"
Finally, she finds him face down in a snowbank. They return home, where LEFOU
is still waiting, disguised as a snowman.)
LEFOU: Oh, they're back.
(Cut to black. P.O.V. of MAURICE as his eyes open. He sees BELLE.)
MAURICE: Belle?
BELLE: It's all right, Papa. I'm
home.
MAURICE: I thought I'd never see
you again.
BELLE: I missed you so much.
MAURICE: But the beast. How did
you escape?
BELLE: I didn't escape, Papa. He
let me go.
MAURICE: That horrible beast?
BELLE: But he's different, now.
He's changed somehow.
(There is sound coming from
BELLE's pack. The flap opens and
the MAGIC MIRROR falls out with CHIP rolling to a stop on it.)
CHIP: Hi!
BELLE: Oh, a stowaway.
MAURICE: Why, hello there, little
fella. Didn't think I'd ever see you again.
(CHIP turns to BELLE with a look of question on his face.)
CHIP: Belle, why'd you go away?
Don't you like us anymore?
BELLE: Oh, Chip. Of course I do.
It's just that--
(There is a knocking at the door.
BELLE opens it
and MONSIEUR D'ARQUE stands on the porch.)
BELLE: May I help you?
D'ARQUE: I've come to collect
your father.
(He steps aside to show the Asylum D'Loons wagon behind him.)
BELLE: My father?
D'ARQUE: Don't worry,
mademoiselle. We'll take good care of him.
BELLE: My father's not crazy.
LEFOU: (Emerging from the crowd)
He was raving like a lunatic. We all heard him, didn't we!
BYSTANDERS: Yeah!
BELLE: No, I won't let you.
(MAURICE has emerged from the home.)
MAURICE: Belle?
LEFOU: Ah, Maurice. Tell us
again, old man, just how big was the beast?
MAURICE: (Struggling)
Well, he was...that is...enormous. I'd say at least eight, no more like ten
feet.
(CROWD laughs at him.)
LEFOU: Well, you don't get much
crazier than that.
MAURICE: It's true, I tell you!
(D'ARQUE waves his arms and ORDERLIES move in and pick up MAURICE.)
LEFOU: Take him away!
MAURICE: Let go of me!
(GASTON has been watching from the sides, standing near D'ARQUE.)
BELLE: (To D'ARQUE.)
No, you can't do this!
(D'ARQUE shakes her off and walks away.)
GASTON: Tsk, tsk, tsk. Poor
Belle. It's a shame about your father.
BELLE: You know he's not crazy,
Gaston.
GASTON: I might be able to clear
up this little misunderstanding, if...
BELLE: If what?
GASTON: If you marry me.
BELLE: What?
GASTON: One little word, Belle.
That's all it takes.
BELLE: Never!
GASTON: Have it your way.
(Turns and walks away slowly, playing hard to get.)
MAURICE: (Being thrown into the
wagon.)
Belle?
(She runs back into the house.)
Let go of me!
BELLE: (Comes back out with MAGIC
MIRROR. She yells to the crowd.)
My father's not crazy and I can prove it!
(To MIRROR)
Show me the beast!
(MAGIC MIRROR again shines, then produces the image of
the still depressed BEAST. The crowd oohs and aahs at it.)
WOMAN 1: Is it dangerous?
BELLE: (Trying to reassure her)
Oh, no. He'd never hurt anyone. Please, I know he looks vicious,
but he's really kind and gentle. He's my friend.
GASTON: If I didn't know better,
I'd think you had feelings for this monster.
BELLE: He's no monster, Gaston.
You are!
GASTON: She's as crazy as the old
man.
(He grabs the MIRROR from her hand.)
**Start of Song: "The
Mob Song"**
The beast will make off with your
children!
He'll come after them in the night.
BELLE: No!
GASTON: We're not safe 'til his
head is mounted on my wall!
I say we kill the beast!
(MOB cheers him and repeats the words 'kill him'.)
MAN 1: We're not safe until he's
dead,
MAN 2: He'll come stalking us at
night!
WOMAN 1: Set to sacrifice our
children to his monstrous appetite!
MAN 3: He'll wreak havoc on our
village
If we let him wander free
GASTON: So it's time to take some
action, boys
It's time to follow me!
(GASTON throws a torch into a
haystack, creating an instant bonfire. He
begins to prance around it, warning of the dangers of the horrible BEAST.)
Through the mist, through the
woods
Through the darkness and the shadows
It's a nightmare but it's one exciting ride.
Say a prayer, then we're there
At the drawbridge of a castle,
And there's something truly terrible inside.
(GASTON chases LEFOU around, mimicking a monster.)
It's a beast,
He's got fangs, razor sharp ones
Massive paws,
Killer claws for the feast
(MAGIC MIRROR shows the face of
BEAST to
LEFOU, which GASTON exaggerates about.)
Hear him roar, see him foam,
But we're not coming home,
'Til he's dead, good and dead, kill the beast!
BELLE: (Interjecting)
No, I won't let you do this.
GASTON: If you're not with us,
you're against us. Bring the old man.
MAURICE: Get your hands off me!
(GASTON throws them into the basement and bolts the door.)
GASTON: We can't have them
running off to warn the creature!
BELLE: Let us out!
GASTON: (To the CROWD)
We'll rid the village of this beast. Who's with me?
(A chorus of "I am"s comes from the CROWD)
MOB: Light your torch, mount your
horse!
GASTON: Screw your courage to the
sticking place
MOB: We're counting on Gaston to
lead the way!
Through a mist, to a wood,
Where within a haunted castle,
Something's lurking that you don't see every day!
(GASTON leads the MOB through the
town and out into the forest,
where they start chopping trees in preparation for their assault on the
castle.)
It's a beast,
One as tall as a mountain!
We won't rest
'Til he's good and deceased!
Sally forth, tally ho,
Grab your sword, grab your bow
Praise the Lord and here we go!
GASTON: We'll lay siege to his
castle and bring back his head!
(Cut to interior of basement, where BELLE is prying at the window with a
stick.)
BELLE: I have to warn the beast.
This is all my fault. Oh, Papa. What are we going to do?
MAURICE: (Comforting her)
Now, now. We'll think of something.
(We see CHIP looking in through
the window. He turns around, thinking,
and then he sees MAURICE's contraption with the axe on the end of it.)
MOB: We don't like, what we don't
Understand, it frankly scares us
And this monster is mysterious at least!
Bring your guns, bring your
knives,
Save your children and your wives,
We'll save our village and our lives,
We'll kill the beast!
COGSWORTH: I knew it, I knew it
was foolish to get our hopes up.
LUMIERE: Maybe it would have been
better if she had never come at all.
(FOOTSTOOL comes in barking. They
rush over
to the window expecting the return of BELLE.)
LUMIERE: Could it be?
MRS. POTTS: Is it she?
LUMIERE: (Realizing the MOB is
not BELLE)
Sacre bleu, invaders!
COGSWORTH: Encroachers!
MRS. POTTS: (Seeing GASTON)
And they have the mirror!
COGSWORTH: (Issuing orders)
Warn the master. If it's a fight they want, we'll be ready for them.
(Turns around from window)
Who's with me? Aahh!
(The door is slammed as the rest of the OBJECTS leave COGSWORTH behind.)
GASTON: Take whatever booty you
can find, but remember, the beast is mine!
(Cut to stairway, where OBJECTS are marching down to do battle with the MOB.)
OBJECTS: Hearts ablaze, banners
high!
We go marching into battle,
Unafraid, although the danger just increased!
MOB: Raise the flag, sing the
song
Here we come, we're fifty strong
And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong,
Let's kill the beast!
(Cut to interior of BEAST's lair, where MRS. POTTS is briefing him.)
MRS. POTTS: Pardon me, master.
BEAST: Leave me in peace.
MRS. POTTS: But sir, the castle
is under attack!
MOB: Kill the beast, kill the
beast!
(The OBJECTS have tried to block off the door, but it is being bashed in by the
MOB.)
LUMIERE: This isn't working!
FEATHERDUSTER: Oh, Lumiere!
We must do something!
LUMIERE: Wait! I know!
MOB: Kill the beast, kill the
beast!
(Cut to BEAST's lair)
MRS. POTTS: What shall we do,
master?
BEAST: (Still very sad)
It doesn't matter now. Just let them come.
MOB: Kill the beast, kill the
beast, kill the beast!!
(The MOB succeeds in breaking in,
and finds a grand entrance filled with assorted pieces of furniture, teacups,
candlesticks, featherdusters and clocks. They tiptoe in, and LEFOU unknowingly
picks up LUMIERE. )
LUMIERE: Now!!!
(All the objects spring into
life, attacking their human enemies. Cut
back to BELLE's home, where CHIP has readied the invention.)
CHIP: Yes! Here we go!
(MAURICE looks out from the window and sees the advancing axe.)
MAURICE: What the devil? Belle,
look out!
(The invention crashes into the
door, and a red cloud of smoke poofs out of the basement. BELLE and MAURICE
emerge from the wreckage to find CHIP swinging on a loose spring.)
CHIP: You guys gotta try this
thing!
(Cut back to the castle where the
attack continues. Meanwhile, GASTON has broken off from the mob, and is
searching out BEAST. BELLE, MAURICE, PHILLIPE and CHIP are making their way to
the castle. Finally, the invaders are chased out and the objects celebrate
their victory.)
COGSWORTH: And stay out!
(LUMIERE pulls over COGSWORTH and
kisses him once on each cheek. COGSWORTH
shakes it off. Cut to GASTON, who finds BEAST's lair. He raises his crossbow
and takes aim. BEAST looks up at him, then looks back down in sadness again.
GASTON releases the arrow and it strikes BEAST in the shoulder. He
screams in pain and stands. GASTON rushes him and they fly out the window onto
the balcony, where it has begun to rain.)
GASTON: Ha ha ha ha ha!
(GASTON corners BEAST on the edge of the roof. BEAST simply sits there in
despair.)
GASTON: Get up! Get up! What's
the matter, Beast? Too kind and gentle to fight back?
(BEAST looks down ignoring him.
GASTON walks into the foreground and breaks off
a piece of the roof. He is about to smash it on BEAST's head when BELLE's voice
drifts up. She is on the bridge and is yelling to GASTON, telling him to stop.)
BELLE: No!
BEAST: (Hearing her voice and
giving him new life)
Belle.
BELLE: Gaston, don't!
(GASTON swings down at BEAST, but
he catches the weapon in his hand. BEAST rises up and roars in GASTON's face.
They proceed through a fight on the rooftop. Finally, BEAST takes a hiding
place among the gargoyles in the darkness. Meanwhile, BELLE enters the castle
on the ground.)
BELLE: Let's go, Phillipe!
GASTON: Come on out and fight!
Were you in love with her, beast?
Did you honestly think she'd want you when she had someone like me?
(BEAST has been provoked enough. He emerges and they fight again.)
GASTON: It's over, beast! Belle
is mine!
(This time, however, BEAST picks
up GASTON by the neck and
holds him out over the edge of the roof. GASTON pleads with BEAST.)
GASTON: Put me down. Put me down.
Please, don't hurt me! I'll do anything! Anything!
(BEAST's anger slowly melts off
his face, and the look of
compassion returns. He pulls GASTON back onto the roof.)
BEAST: Get out!
(He shoves GASTON to the ground. Above, BELLE comes out on a balcony.)
BELLE: Beast!
BEAST: Belle!
(BEAST begins to climb the tower until he reaches the balcony. He hangs over
the side.)
BEAST: Belle? You came back!
(BEAST and BELLE stare
passionately at each other, but the moment is interrupted when GASTON sneaks up
and stabs BEAST in the back. BEAST roars in pain, and BELLE is helpless. GASTON
pulls the knife out and swings back for another shot. BEAST starts to
fall, knocking GASTON off his balance. BELLE reaches forward and pulls BEAST
back, while GASTON falls off never to be seen again. BELLE helps the injured
BEAST up onto the balcony, where he lies down on the floor. The OBJECTS come
rushing out, but stay out of sight.)
BEAST: You came back.
BELLE: Of course I came back. I
couldn't let them...
Oh this is all my fault. If only I'd gotten here sooner.
BEAST: Maybe it's better this
way.
BELLE: Don't talk like that.
You'll be all right. We're
together now. Everything's going to be fine. You'll see.
BEAST: At least I got to see you
one... last...time.
(BELLE pulls BEAST's paw up to
her cheek. He holds it there for a second, then drops it. His head falls back,
and his eyes close. BELLE drops the paw and puts her hands to her mouth. She
can't believe this has happened.)
BELLE: (Crying)
No, no! Please! Please! Please don't leave me! I love you!
(Cut to OBJECTS, who watch the
last petal fall off the rose. They all look down at the floor, and COGSWORTH
puts his arm around MRS. POTTS. Cut back to BELLE and BEAST. The rain continues
to fall. But one beam of light falls, like a shooting star. Then another comes.
And another, and another. BELLE finally notices what is happening. She stops crying
for a second, then starts to back away. We cut A fog begins to enshroud BEAST.
We see the OBJECTS looking on in extreme anticipation. BEAST rises up into the
air magically and begins to turn. He is enveloped in a cloud of light,
and becomes wrapped in his cloak. Underneath, we can see BEAST's body
shifting and forming. A fore paw comes out and the claws turn into fingers. A
hind paw emerges and develops into a foot. Finally, a wind blows across
his face and the fur melts away to reveal a young prince. He gradually descends
and is laid on the floor again. The fog disappears and BELLE reaches out to
touch him. She jerks her hand back, however, when the figure begins to move. It
stands, then looks at it's hands, then turns to face BELLE. It is a human, with
the same blue eyes as BEAST. It is obviously BEAST, transformed. BELLE gives
him a mysterious look.)
PRINCE: Belle! It's me!
(She continues to look at him
skeptically,but then she
sees the blue eyes, and instantly knows it is him.)
BELLE: It is you!
(They kiss. A fireworks display
explodes around them. The gloom surrounding the castle disappears, revealing a
blue sky. The castle is transformed, with the gargoyles changing into cherubs.
Finally, we return to the balcony, where the OBJECTS hop out to meet the PRINCE
and BELLE. One by one, they are transformed back to their original human
conditions.)
PRINCE: Lumiere! Cogsworth! Oh,
Mrs. Potts! Look at us!
(CHIP comes riding in on FOOTSTOOL.)
CHIP: Mama! Mama!
(The pair transforms back into a boy and dog.)
MRS. POTTS: (Picking up her boy)
Oh my goodness!
LUMIERE: It is a miracle!
(The PRINCE picks up BELLE and
swings her around. The ruffles of her skirt wipe to the ballroom, where all are
gathered to celebrate. The PRINCE and BELLE dance around the room as the rest
of the characters get in their last lines.)
LUMIERE: Ah, l'amour.
(He says this, and a maid, obviously the former
FEATHERDUSTER walks by, brushing him on the chin.)
Heh heh!
(He starts to chase after her, but COGSWORTH stops him.)
COGSWORTH: Well, Lumiere, old
friend. Shall we let bygones be bygones?
LUMIERE: Of course, mon ami. I
told you she would break the spell.
COGSWORTH: I beg your pardon, old
friend, but I believe I told you.
LUMIERE: No you didn't. I told
you.
COGSWORTH: You most certainly did
not, you pompous parrafin-headed pea-brain!
LUMIERE: En garde, you overgrown
pocket watch!
(He takes off his glove and slaps COGSWORTH across the face with it. They begin
to fight.
Cut to BELLE and the PRINCE who continue to dance around the floor. The camera
stops on MRS. POTTS, CHIP and MAURICE, who is beginning to cry.)
CHIP: Are they gonna live happily
ever after, mama?
MRS. POTTS: Of course, my dear.
Of course.
CHIP: (Looks happy for a moment,
then puzzled.)
Do I still have to sleep in the cupboard?
(MAURICE laughs and MRS. POTTS
hugs her child and laughs. Cut to a camera looking over the entire ballroom
with all in the shot. It slowly zooms out with BELLE and the PRINCE dancing
around the room, and fades into the final stained glass window, this one
with BELLE and the PRINCE in the center, surrounded by the rest of the
characters.)
CHORUS: Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time,
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast!
Tale as old as time,
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast!
(Fade out into credits. The end.)
