"Yes, look at the portrait." "You look exactly like Queen Isabella!" "You could be baby Sophia." "If it's true, and Dame Devin and Delancy know it, that would explain why they're so awful to you, because you're the rightful heir to the throne, and not Delancy!" "Okay."

"blair, are you okay?" "I'm better than okay." "I'm ready." "Ready for what?" "To fight." "If Delancy gets on the throne she's going to ruin my family, and probably this kingdom along with it." "If she gets on the throne?" "She can't, ifwe can prove someone else is the rightful heir." "Gardania's magical crown." "It must be in the palace." "Right?" "The crown glows when placed on the true heir of Gardania." "But we have to find it before Delancy's coronation." "So we have to find the crown..." "ALL:" "Tonight." "BLAIR:" "It's time." "Do we have everything we need?" "Game on." "(ALARM RINGING)" "What's that?" "What's going on?" "(IN SINGSONG VOICE) Fire drill!" "Fire drill!" "There's no time!" "Single file!" "In a line!" "Hmm." "I don't see a fire drill on the schedule." "What about the plan?" "We wait a Iittle longer." "Hopefully, this will be fast." "(GASPS)" "Lovely day for a surprise fire drill, isn't it, darling?" "Mom, what did you do?" "Oh!" "What have you done to your uniform?" "I Iike it, Mother." "Ugh!" "Come on." "Let's join the others outside." "PRIVET: (ON PA) Attention, students!" "You may now return to your rooms!" "How much time did we lose?" "Thirty minutes." "plus another 15 minutes trying to untangle Portia from the tether ball pole." "Let's go." "(GASPING)" "Thieves!" "They're thieves, I tell you." "ALL:" "Huh?" "Arrest them." "What?" "I'm sure it's some kind of mistake, but Dame Devin believes you stole her jewelry." "No!" "I would never!" "Not to save your poor family about to lose their home?" "I doubt that." "plus my daughter, Delancy, saw you." "Didn't you tell me you saw blair poking around in my office the other day?" "I don't..." "I don't remember exactly, but..." "Yes." "Yes, I did." "I demand you search their room." "ALL:" "What?" "Girls, it's procedure." "If you have nothing to hide, it shouldn't matter." "Look what I found." "(GASPS)" "My jewelry!" "That's not..." "I didn't put that there." "Here's another." "No way!" "One more." "We didn't steal anything." "Don't lie." "It's unbecoming." "Lock them up." "Headmistress Privet, I promise you." "With the evidence and the witness" "I'm afraid I have no choice." "Brock, take them to the detaining room." "No!" "We can't investigate until after the ceremony tomorrow." "You will remain detained until that time." "Detained?" "As in, locked up?" "During the coronation?" "I'm afraid so." "Unless there is another way to explain this." "Hmm." "How very disappointing." "I'II say." "Brock!" "Isla, Hadley," "I'm so sorry." "Now neither of you will become princesses." "Don't sweat it." "Who needs a tiara anyway?" "They just make your head itch." "And it's not easy to kick a ball in four-inch heels." "DELANCY:" "Brock, stop!" "I've got something else in mind for the prisoners." "You may turn them over to me." "But my orders..." "Will officially come from me in only a few hours." "The keys?" "They're all yours." "Thank you." "You may go." "If this is your way or rubbing it in, you don't have to." "You've won." "Yeah, we get it." "(SHUSHING) What are you..." "I'm supposed to be asleep." "Tell me, are you really Princess Sophia?" "I..." "I don't know for sure." "But I think so." "I think so, too." "This is a map of the palace basement." "There's something of yours inside the vault." "Gardania's magical crown?" "DELANCY:" "You have to get it." "Let everyone know the truth before coronation." "Once I'm crowned, it's too late." "Gardania's mine for life." "You don't want that?" "I want what's right." "I have to get back." "My mother will be looking for me." "Thank you." "I'II leave a window open for you on the third floor." "Good luck." "(PRINCE BARKS)" "Hey, Prince." "(CONTINUES BARKING)" "Aw, don't look at me like that." "(PANTING)" "(GROANS) I can't play fetch, I'm on duty." "Hey!" "Prince." "Prince." "No, no." "Prince, come here." "I gotta work." "Prince." "Prince." "Come on." "Come here." "That's the window." "Let's hope Delancy did what she said she would." "You're sure this will work?" "Positive!" "Just hold on tight and don't look down." "GUARD:" "Come." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Prince, hey." "Drop it." "Drop it." "Drop it." "Come back here!" "The elevator should be right down this hall." "DAME DEVIN:" "It's time for you to be asleep, Delancy." "You've a big day tomorrow." "(CREAKING)" "Don't move." "What now?" "Laser alarm." "We've got 'em at home." "If we break the beams, alarms go off." "I can't see any beams." "Perhaps a Iittle touch up will help." "HADLEY:" "Nice." "So, how good are you guys at gymnastics?" "I do a mean tree pose." "I think I can do a somersault." "Follow me." "(GRUNTING)" "Whoa!" "(GRUNTS)" "(EXCLAIMING) No!" "This way." "Careful!" "Huh?" "Okay." "No, no." "Whoa!" "(BOTH GRUNTING)" "(BOTH SIGHING)" "AUTOMATED VOICE:" "Welcome, Dame Devin." "Your security is our priority." "Please enter your password." "Password?" "Try something." "What would Dame Devin choose?" "Delancy's coronation day?" "Today's date." "(BUZZER SOUNDING)" "AUTOMATED VOICE:" "You seem to be having trouble." "Would you like your password hint?" "ALL:" "Yes." "Your hint is," ""The day it all fell into place. "" "Ten seconds until your lockdown." "The day it all fell into place?" "Nine, eight..." "What does that mean?" "...seven, six..." "Wait. "The day it all fell into place."" "The day Dame Devin's plans started working." "The day of the car crash." "(MACHINERY WHIRRING)" "Thank you, Dame Devin." "Enjoy." "Not in here!" "(BOTH EXHALING IN RELIEF)" "(GASPING) Hadley, Isla, look!" "Gardania's magical crown!" "How do we get it out of the case?" "DAME DEVIN:" "You won't." "But I shouldn't have too much trouble with it." "(ALL GASPING)" "(CRYING OUT)" "(SCOFFS)" "(WHIMPERING)" "(LAUGHING EVILLY) Goodbye, blair." "Enjoy Coronation Day." "BLAIR:" "No!" "(SIGHING) That's it." "We're sunk." "ANDREA:" "Well, Phil, here it is." "The day we've all been waiting for!" "PHIL:" "My birthday?" "(BOTH LAUGHING)" "ANDREA:" "No, it's Coronation Day." "Even now, our beloved princesses-in-training are pulling into the royal palace to receive their royal crowns on their royal heads." "(APPLAUSE)" "Ladies and gentlemen!" "I welcome you to our annual Graduation and Coronation Day..." "This will be the best" "Coronation Day ever, don't you think?" "(METAL CLANGING)" "(GRUNTING)" "(ISLA HUMMING)" "Grace, go find Miss Privet and tell her where we are." "(CRYING OUT)" "(EXCLAIMING)" "(MOANING)" "Now, what are we going to do?" "(CROWD APPLAUDING)" "You are hereby dubbed" "Lady Royal Josette of Zinnia." "(SQUEALING EXCITEDLY)" "You are hereby dubbed" "Princess Miranda of Philadelphia." "You are hereby dubbed" "Princess Portia of Narcissia." "(ALL APPLAUDING)" "(ISLA HUMMING)" "Ugh!" "There is no service at all down here." "(GRUNTING)" "(SIGHS)" "Hmm." "What's this?" "Stand back!" "(ALARM BLARING)" "If only there was a keypad inside the vault." "Maybe there is!" "(FANFARE)" "Standing before me now is Delancy Devin, who will now govern our beloved and flourishing country, Gardania." "Delancy, I now crown you" "Princess of..." "Wait!" "Uh..." "Proper princess protocol!" "(FANFARE STOPS)" "The bylaws state that before a new princess can be crowned, the entire assembly must spin around seven times, in honor of the seven hills of Gardania." "(ALL MURMURING) What is she doing?" "I don't know." "What are you doing?" "You need to be crowned!" "I just..." "Uh..." "Want to do it properly." "Spin, you say?" "It is indeed proper protocol. (CLEARS THROAT)" "In honor of the seven hills of Gardania," "let us rise and spin around seven times!" "(ALL RISING)" "(BEEPING) BLAIR:" "I got it!" "The phone's linked up with the keypad."

"(GASPS)" "Come on!" "Oh!" "Get away!" "Hah!" "(BARKS)" "(CROWD GASPING)" "It is Princess Sophia!" "You useless child!" "Do you have any idea what you've done?"
