:03:05
And the beautiful princess and the
handsome prince rode off to his castle...
:03:10
...where they lived happily ever after."

From then on, the only fairy tales
in my life...
:04:44
...were the ones I read about in books.
:04:52
Since my father didn 't leave a will,
my stepmother got everything.
:04:57
The house, the diner,
and to her dismay, me.
