Wizarmon/Wizardmon: But, King Susumu, still fearful of his daughter's life, did then and there decree that every spinning wheel in the kingdom should on that very day be burned. And so, it was done.

Mimi, Catherine and Yolei all watch the burning of the spinning wheels. Mimi seems to be fully aware that the simple act of burning all the spinning wheels will not offer Princess Kari any protection.

Mimi Tachikawa: Oh, those silly little...

Catherine Deneuve: Come now and have a nice cup of tea, dear. I'm sure it will work out somehow.

Miyako 'Yolei' Inoue: Well, a bonfire won't stop Laylamon.

Mimi Tachikawa: Of course not, but what will?

Catherine Deneuve: Well, perhaps if we tried to reason wiz her...

Mimi Tachikawa: REASON?

Miyako 'Yolei' Inoue: WITH LAYLAMON?!

Catherine is, however, still quite very optimistic that...

Catherine Deneuve: Well, she can't be all bad.

Mimi and Yolei, though, know just bad Lillithmon truly is and that she cannot be reasoned with, at all.

Mimi Tachikawa: Oh yes, she can.

Miyako 'Yolei' Inoue: Ooooh, I'd like to turn her into a fat, ole' pot toad.

Catherine Deneuve: Now, dear, that isn't a very nize zing to say.

Mimi Tachikawa: Besides, Yolei, we can't. You know that our magic doesn't work that way.

Catherine Deneuve: It can only do good, Dearest Yolei, to bring jhoy and happiness.

Miyako 'Yolei' Inoue: Well, that would make me happy.

But Mimi still refuses to give up.

Mimi Tachikawa: But there must be some way.

Then, out of nowhere, an idea seems to come to Mimi.

Mimi Tachikawa (continued): There is.

Yolei and Catherine stand up from their seats upon hearing that Mimi might just have a solution to the curse.

Miyako 'Yolei' Inoue: There is?

Catherine Deneuve: What is it, Mimi?

Mimi flies over to her sisters.

Mimi Tachikawa: I'm going to...

Mimi then shushes her sisters before she can get her idea out to them.

Mimi Tachikawa (continued): Even walls have ears.

Then, they all inspect the area to make sure that no one can hear them.

Mimi Tachikawa: Follow me.

Mimi then turns herself tiny. Catherine does the same, then Yolei follows. They all head into a tiny gift leftover from the celebration of the infant princess's christening. Mimi then locks the door to the gift behind her.

Inside, she talks to her sisters about the idea which came to her only a few minutes ago.

Mimi Tachikawa (continued): I'll turn her into a flower.

Miyako 'Yolei' Inoue: Laylamon?

Mimi Tachikawa: No, no, Dear Yolei. The princess.

Catherine Deneuve: Oh, she'd make a lovely flowér.

Mimi Tachikawa: Don't you see? A flower can't prick its finger.

Yolei suddenly sees what Mimi is saying.
