A coup d'état, Red had to have seen it coming.

Her mother, the Queen of Hearts, prepared the entire attack on Auradon since that letter arrived at the doors of their palace in Wonderland.

— Mom, this is crazy, even for you. — Red yelled, she felt helpless, her opportunity to forge her own path had been taken away once again.
— That was my invitation, my school and my life. — Red added.
The queen of hearts could only look at her own daughter up and down, as if she were analyzing all the flaws that Red was showing at that moment.

— Stop it, Bridget! You are better than this. — The voice of a woman with long blue hair and a silver dress broke the silence that had formed in the courtyard of the school.
— I know you suffered a lot, but that happened a long time ago. It was just a stupid prank. — the woman insisted, using a much softer tone than at the beginning.
That woman was Queen Cinderella.

— I could forgive a stupid prank. But humiliating a girl at her first dance in front of everyone. That's just cruel. — the eyes of The Queen of Hearts were starting to crystalize.
— They turned me into a monster, Ella. And where were you? Huh! You were with him... Your Prince Charming. —

— Bridget, pl- — Cinderella couldn't finish her sentence, The Red Queen let out a scream that shook everyone present. — ENOUGH! —
Cinderella took a step back.

— Maybe you didn't care about me then, but you will now. Everyone is going to show me the respect I deserve, starting with you. — The Red Queen finished as she extended her hand in front of Cinderella.
Queen of Hearts only said one sentence that caused the tension only to rise.
— Bent the Knee. —

Red along with all the other students and their parents were stunned, however, Cinderella was firm and didn't show any fear, she then said — I will never kneel before a tyrant. — that was her response.

Princess Red knew the outcome of rebelling against her mother. Cinderella would not have a happy ending this time.
— Please, all you have to do is bent the knee. Is it that difficult? — the princess's voice was trembling, she was hesitating.

— If that means going against my principles, then yes. — Cinderella replied with her head held high.

The Queen of Hearts approached her rival. — Very well then. You made your decision. — She said to Cinderella almost as a whisper.
— Let this serve as a lesson for everyone. Bent the knee or you will suffer the same consequences as her.— everybody was silent, the tension increased and the smile that began to form on the Queen of Hearts face was disturbing.
— Guards! Off with her head! —

Panic began, the Queen's guards grabbed Cinderella and took her out of everyone's sight.

— Mom? No! Please! No! Mom! Let her go! — a girl's voice emerged from the sea of ​​people in front of Red and the Queen.
