La Bête • Le Prince
- [the Beast Catches The Merchant Taking a Rose]
- The Beast: My gifts were not enough for you? Do you also have to steal what I treasure most?
- The Merchant: I won't be treated as a thief or a coward. I am a just and honorable man!
- The Beast: Who did you pick this rose for?
- The Merchant: My youngest daughter. She is worth more than anything in the world, to me.
- The Beast: Then I will give you one day to say goodbye to your loved ones. You only need to whisper the words: "More than anything in the world," to your horse, and he will bring you here.
- The Merchant: I will not return!
- The Beast: Oh, yes you will. Otherwise, I will kill your entire family, one by one. I will kill your youngest daughter last, since she's your favorite. Remember... A life for a rose.
