:02:01
And so he married again,
:02:03
choosing for his second wife
a woman of good family...
:02:07
with two daughters just Cinderella's age.
:02:10
By name... Anastasia and Drizella.
:02:15
It was upon the untimely death
of this good man, however,
:02:19
that the stepmother's
true nature was revealed.
:02:22
Cold, cruel, and bitterly jealous...
:02:25
of Cinderella's charm and beauty,
:02:27
she was grimly determined
to forward the interests...
:02:30
of her own two awkward daughters.
:02:35
Thus, as time went by,
:02:37
the chateau fell into disrepair,
:02:39
for the family fortunes were squandered...
:02:41
upon the vain and selfish stepsisters,
:02:44
while Cinderella was abused, humiliated,
:02:47
and finally forced to become
a servant in her own house.
:02:52
And yet, through it all,
:02:55
Cinderella remained ever gentle and kind,
:02:59
for with each dawn she found
new hope that someday...
:03:02
her dreams of happiness would come true.
:03:46
Well, serves you right...
spoiling people's best dreams.
:03:50
Yes, I know it's a IoveIy morning, but...
:03:53
it was a IoveIy dream too.
