Madame Garderobe: [at the Prince's ball]Oh, how divine! Glamour, music, and magic combine! See the maidens so anxious to shine / Look for a sign that enhances chances / She'll be his special one / What a display! What a breathtaking, thrilling array! Every prince, every dog has his day / Let us sing with passion, gusto, fit to bust / Oh, not a care in the world!

[the Beast enters the dining room and sees a dinner plate on his side. He sits down and sees another plate set up across from him. He pushes away the plate in a fit of rage] Beast: [roars]*Lumiere*! [LumiÞre and Cogsworth get startled]
LumiÞre: [turns to Cogsworth]Be calm. Let me do the talking. [the Beast bursts through the door]
Beast: You're making her dinner?
LumiÞre: We thought you might appreciate the company.
Cogsworth: Master, I just want to assure you that I had no part of this hopeless plan. Preparing her dinner, designing a gown for her, giving her a suite in the East Wing...
Beast: You gave her a bedroom?
Cogsworth: No, no, no! He gave her the bedroom.
LumiÞre: Well, this is true. But, if this girl is the one who can break the spell, then maybe you can start by using dinner to charm her. [turns to Cogsworth, bonks]
LumiÞre: Good thinking, Cogsworth.
Cogsworth: What?
Beast: That's the most ridiculous idea, I've ever heard. Charm the prisoner.
LumiÞre: But you must try, master. With every passing day, we become less human.
Beast: She's the *daughter* of a common thief. What kind of person do you think that makes her?
Mrs. Potts: Oh, you can't judge people by who their father is, now can you? [the Beast sighs]

Beast: What happened to your mother?
Belle: It was the one story Papa could never bring himself to tell me. I knew better than to ask.
Beast: [he looks to the chair and gasps softly]A doctor's mask... [he pauses]
Beast: Plague. [flashback to a plague doctor closing his medicine case. Belle's mother lays sick on the bed behind him]

Agathe: [narrates]Then one night, an unexpected intruder arrived at the castle, seeking shelter from the bitter storm. As a gift, she offered the prince a single rose. [Beggar woman offers the rose to the prince. He laughs and so does the rest of the party]
Agathe: Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the prince turned the woman away. [the Prince grabs the rose and shortly afterwards, he throws it to the ground]
Agathe: But she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within. [Beggar woman looks deeply towards the Prince]
Agathe: When he dismissed her again, the old woman's outward appearance melted away... [Beggar woman turns into Agathe as she picks up the rose]
Agathe: to reveal a most beautiful enchantress. [Everyone backed up in terror. The Prince bent down on his knees for forgiveness. The people at the party were screaming and running away. Chip runs into the ballroom]
Agathe: The prince begged her for forgiveness. But it was too late, for she had seen that there was no love in his heart.
Mrs. Potts: Chip! Chip!
Agathe: As punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast, and placed a powerful spell on the castle and all who lived there. [the servants were standing there in the ballroom watching the prince turn into a beast. The Beast slashed the portrait of the prince with his claws]
Agathe: As days bled into years, the prince and his servants were forgotten by the world, for the enchantress had erased all memory of them from the minds of the people they loved. But the rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose. If he could learn to love another and earn their love in return by the time the last petal fall, 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 be
