Quotes 

• Baker : As the Prince anxiously waited, the stepmother took matters, and Florinda's foot, into her own hands.

  Florinda : Careful, my toe!

  Stepmother : Darling, I know!

  Florinda : What will we do?

  Stepmother : It'll have to go/but when you're his bride/you can sit or ride/you'll never need to walk!

  [cuts off Florinda's toe and Florinda screams in pain] 

  Baker : Minus one toe, Florinda mounted the Prince's horse, unaware of the blood dripping from the slipper. Lucinda was next...

  Lucinda : Why won't it fit?

  Stepmother : Darling, be still/cut off a bit of the heel and it will/and when you're his wife/you'll have such a life/you'll never need to walk!

  [cuts of Lucinda's heel and Lucinda screams in pain] 

  Baker : Minus a heel, Lucinda did her best to swallow the pain.

  Stepmother : It's a perfect fit your highness!

  [Lucinda faints]
