Evil Queen
- Evil Queen: [singing in Asian accent] If you have lovely hair, you may want a comb in there. Painted bright, mother-of-pearl, just the thing for a lovely girl.
- Snow White: Good day. Where did you come from?
- Evil Queen: [in her Geisha disguise] Far far away. I've been traveling for so long. Oh. May I rest here for a while?
- Snow White: Yes. Yes, of course.
- Evil Queen: [she sits down] Oh. What lovely hair you have. You must wear comb in such lovely hair.
- Snow White: Thank you. But I have no comb.
- Evil Queen: But I have beautiful comb. May I show you one?
- [Snow White nods. The evil Queen is trying to find the best comb. She picks out a comb]
- Evil Queen: Oh yeah.
- Snow White: Oh, it shimmers so.
- Evil Queen: Let me in and I will show it to you.
- Snow White: But I don't know you and I mustn't let anyone in.
- Evil Queen: Then open the door a crack and I will pass it to you.
- Snow White: Just a crack.
- [she closes door window and cracks the door open]
- Evil Queen: So.
- Snow White: Oh, it's beautiful. But I have no one to comb my hair.
- Evil Queen: You must let me comb it for you for once. For good.
- Snow White: Oh, would you? Could you? But I can't. I'm not allowed to let anyone in.
- Evil Queen: Then I should just stand here. Now turn around.
- Snow White: Yes. Just for once.
- [opens door a little wider]
- Snow White: As long as I don't let anyone in.
- [seeing the poisoned comb in a mirror]
- Snow White: I've seen that comb somewhere before!
- Evil Queen: [as she shoves the comb into Snow White's hair, which sends her into a deep sleep] But you'll *never* see it again!
- [cackles]
- Evil Queen: [disguised as an old lady] Will you buy my apples today?
- Snow White: No, thank you.
- Evil Queen: They're the best in the season. Sweet and juicy.
- Snow White: I can't; I'm not supposed to let anyone into the house.
- Evil Queen: Then come to the window, and I will show 'em to you.
- [Snow White opens the window doors seeing an old lady]
- Evil Queen: [disguised as an farmer's wife] Good day, kind child.
- Snow White: Hello.
- Evil Queen: Oh... it's been a terrible season on the farm this year. But there's one very special tree that's grown the best apples I've ever seen.
- Snow White: It looks so strange.
- Evil Queen: That's because it's a special tree. Why don't you buy this one?
- Snow White: N-no, I mustn't. The dwarfs'll be cross.
- Evil Queen: Oh, we wouldn't want to make the dwarfs cross, would we? Here then, take it as a gift.
- Snow White: You're so kind. It's such a nice-looking apple... But I shouldn't.
- Evil Queen: You're not afraid that I'm going to poison you, are you?
- [chuckles briefly]
- Evil Queen: Here, I'll cut it in half...
- [cuts apple in half]
- Evil Queen: and I'll take the white half, and *you* take the red half.
- [whispering]
- Evil Queen: It's the most delicious and the sweetest.
- [Snow White was about to take the red half when she realizes it may be poisoned]
- Snow White: No. I prefer the white.
- Evil Queen: Oh, as you wish.
- [hands the white half to Snow White. She takes the half and to her disgust sees a worm. Hands it back to the farmer's wife]
- Evil Queen: Ohhh, that's just a naughty little meal worm.
- [hands red half to Snow White again]
- Evil Queen: Here.
- [She bites the white half of the apple]
- Evil Queen: Mmm. That's delicious!
- Snow White: [She bites the red half] Why, it *is* delicious!
- [and just like that, she falls to the floor in a deep sleep, gagging as she does so]
- Evil Queen: [back to her true self] See if the dwarfs can save you *now*.
- [laughs evilly as she hurries away]
- Evil Queen: [disguised as a merchant] Wares for sale. Fancy things to make you pretty.
- [Snow White opens the door]
- Evil Queen: How pretty you are.
- Snow White: Thank you, good woman. What are you selling?
- Evil Queen: Pretty things. Lovely things. Laces of silk in many colors.
- [waves the ribbons around]
- Evil Queen: Oh! What a lovely dress. I have just the bodice for you.
- [shows bodice]
- Snow White: Oh, it's beautiful.
- Evil Queen: Mmm. Wouldn't you like to try it on?
- Snow White: Yes, please.
- Evil Queen: Then let me in and I shall lace you up. Won't you look lovely laced up in this bodice?
- [puts bodice on Snow White]
- Evil Queen: Won't she look lovely, Peabold?
- [Peabold squawks]
- Snow White: [as the evil queen laces the bodice as tight on Snow White] Oh, it is lovely. But it's a little tight.
- Evil Queen: Mmm, the better to show off your *fi-gure*.
- Snow White: But I can't breathe.
- [she loses her breath and collapses to the floor in sleep]
- Evil Queen: [back to her normal self; to Peabold at first, then to the sleeping Snow White] She couldn't resist my bodice. Now we'll see who's the fairest.
- Evil Queen: [in the bathtub as the ladies in waiting are pouring oils and waters into the bathtub] Attar of roses. Tincture of sandalwood. Chamomile. Oil of jasmine. Milk.
- [a lady in waiting pours milk onto the Queen's face]
