Kim: Welcome back to Fairytale News Live! Today’s
topic is Cinderella’s missing glass slippers. Let’s
switch to reporter Tom.
Tom: Thanks Kim, I’m here with Cinderella
at her stepmother’s house trying to help her find her glass
slippers. Everyone is at the ball. The fairy godmother came here
five minutes ago and casted the magic. The plan was supposed to
work like this. Cinderella goes to the ball, dance with the prince,
and runs home before midnight, purposely leaving a glass slipper
behind. Therefore, the prince will search all land for her and marry
her.
The problem is, the glass slippers were stolen when Cinderella went
to fetch her socks. None of us saw who took it. The minute she came
back, it was—poof, gone.
The fairy godmother is on vacation far, far away in California.
We’ll never have time to find her. There is only an hour left
before the ball officially begins. We’ll have to find the
slippers ourselves.

Kim: So, I guess it depends on reporter Tom to
solve this mystery. Will they find it in time? The answer will be
resolved after commercials.
(Commercials)
Kim: It’s Fairytale News Live! Tom, how
are you and Cinderella doing?
Tom: We’ve been walking through the woods
and saw a little house. The house belongs to a boy named Jack and
his mother. Beside the house, there was a humongous beanstalk that
leads to a castle. Inside the castle lives a giant. Jack mentioned
that the giant likes to collect treasures.
Cinderella, what do you think?
Cinderella: My glass slippers must be there.
Tom: We will be climbing the beanstalk after lunch
at Jack’s house.
(After lunch)
Tom: That pizza was good! Anyways, we’ve
packed for the long trip, parachutes, flashlights, bits of paper,
helmets, cheese and crackers, and detergent.”
Cinderella: Check, check, and double check. We
probably don’t need all of those things, Tom.
Tom: You’ll never know when things will
come in handy.
(On top of the beanstalk, in the castle)
Tom: I don’t see anything, do you?
Cinderella: No, maybe the giant didn’t steal
my slippers.
Tom: Let’s get out of here.
Giant: Fee Fi Fo Fum! Who’s entered my castle?
Tom: It’s the giant, RUN!!! Can’t
talk right now Kim, we’re being chased by the giant. At least
the parachutes and helmets came in use.
(In a forest)
Tom: I think we lost the giant.
Cinderella: There’s only half an hour left
to find my slippers.
Tom: Look, there is another house. There are seven
chairs and seven beds. It must belong to the seven little dwarfs.
Cinderella: Do you hear that?
Tom: Here what?
Cinderella: Someone’s singing with the birds.
It’s Snow White, my best friend. Oh, I haven’t seen
you in so long.
Tom: Remember about the slippers, Cinderella.
Cinderella: Oh ya, slippers.
Snow White: Are you talking about those silvery,
high-heeled, glass slippers?
Cinderella: Yes, you’ve seen my slippers?
Snow White: The queen came here half an hour ago
sending me poisoned apples, I saw them on her feet, I knew she looked
suspicious.
Tom: She tried to poison you?
Snow White: Yup, but she doesn’t really
realize that—well, I know it’s poisonous.
Cinderella: The wicked queen stole my slippers,
where does she live?
Snow White: She lives at the edge of the forest.
Tom: Cinderella, I’ve got an idea. We’ll
take some of those poisoned apples to poison the queen. That’s
called, “What goes around, comes around. Quick, we only have
20 minutes left.”

Kim: They’ve got an idea, but will they
make it on time? You’ll find out after more commercials.
(More commercials)
Kim: Fairytale News Live! Tom, where are you guys?
(Queen’s palace)
Tom: We are sitting in the Queen’s room
with her best friend—the mirror. She seems to have this huge
mental problem. We’ve been sitting in the room for 10 minutes
and she’s been asking the mirror the same questions over and
over again, “Who’s the fairest of all?” The mirror
keeps on repeating, “Snow White, Snow White.” Whenever
the queen heard the answer, she gets more and more upset. Also,
she let us in just because we told her that we’re from this
beauty salon.
Pssst… Cinderella, we’d better let her drink the apple
juice we made from her poisoned apples and detergent before she
blows.
Cinderella: You’re right. Um, you’re
Majesty….
Queen: Wait a minute, I recognize you from somewhere,
are you sure you’re from the beauty salon?
Cinderella: You probably got me mixed up with
some other girl.
Queen: I must be, now-a days, girls look very
alike.
Cinderella: I shall continue, you’re Majesty.
This is our beauty salon’s best quality food. I will give
it to you for 25% off and no tax.
Queen: Yes, money isn’t the problem, as
long as I become the fairest of all.
Cinderella: Yes you will, if you drink it. It
is satisfaction guaranteed!
Queen: It tastes a bit odd.
Tom: That’s how it works, the worst it tastes,
the better it is.
“KABOOM!” Down goes the queen, flat, face down on the
floor.
Tom: Hurry, we only have 3 minutes before the ball starts, take
your slippers off the queen’s feet. I’ll get her car
keys and her Volkswagen.
(At the ball out of breath)
Tom: Run inside Cinderella, the ball has already
started.
Cinderella: Thank you Tom, if it weren’t
for your help, I would still be the poor, lonely girl living with
my evil stepmother and my two cruel stepsisters.
Tom: I’m just doing my job as a reporter.
Cinderella: Farewell!

Kim: Congratulations Tom, for solving the mystery,
you will definitely get a raise.
Tom: It’s a pleasure for me to help out.
Kim: That’s all for today at Fairytale News
Live. We’ll see you tomorrow at 8pm.
