I love you...
Hearing these words, Agathe smiles benevolently and places her hand on the bell jar which explodes and releases a wave of rose petals, whirling into the air.
A golden light begins to emanate from Agathe. It encircles the beast and he too begins to rise. Adeline gets to her feet, watching as the beast is lifted and enveloped by the swirling aurora, and then buffeted gently back down to reveal
The Real Him
He lands on his feet and looks down at his hands, his arms, his chest. He turns and sees Adeline.
Adeline... he says
Slowly he steps toward her, and she to him.
In silent disbelief, Adeline runs her fingers through his hair. She looks into the Prince's blue eyes. It is him. Tears of grief turn to tears of joy as they lean in for their first kiss.
Magic explodes outwards. And with it, the dawn breaks. The castle transforms like someone is giving it a wash of gold. The magic spreads across the balcony as the sun rises on the terrace, traveling down the castle facade, creepy stone gargoyles turn into noble statuary.
As the light passes over, an upside-down FrouFrou transforms back into a tiny Bichon Frise basking in the sun. Calliope was shocked. He leaps up and chases his tail (still a tassle), then trots over to Chapeu and relieves himself on his leg, which changes him into a dog
Chapeau transforms back into a valet and shoos the dog away with his walking stick. As the dog weaves through his legs, the valet loses his balance and bumps into the trolley cart holding Mrs. Potts and Chip. It starts to roll toward the stairs.
The valet backs into Garderobe, who waddles in and out of sunlight, changing from wardrobe to human to wardrobe again. Cadenza's face comes alive as he sees the wardrobe falling onto him. As it crashes, the wardrobe's doors fly open, sending out a flurry of garments. We follow them back to the ground, where the human Diva now lies on top of the human.
Oh, Madame.
Oh, Maestro.
The maestro smiles his now-toothless grin. She tearfully embraces him as their dog joins in.
Tbe trolley past us ,taking us to Cogsworth, whose back is bathed in sunlight. We move around to reveal the pudgy majordomo, human except for his moustache, which still resembles the hands of a clock. He peers through his monocle, sees The French Footman (formerly Lumière) come into view.
Lumière!
Cogsworth, we beat the clock!
Mon ami.
They greet each other as a feather floats by, brushing the footman's nose. They look over to see
A pile of feathers... from which the footman pulls the French maid, her feathers blossoming into a dress around her.
Plumette... mon amour...
And then, the greatest kiss ever. Their passion ignites a tiny flame on the footman's head which the maid pats out. They turn as they hear
The trolley squeaking as it nears the steps, about to crash down. Mrs. Potts and Chip rattle on a tray, which suddenly jerks to a stop on the precipice. The valet has hooked the cart with his walking stick, but...
Mrs. Potts and Chip slide down the incline... shoot off the tray... and start to TRANSFORM IN MID-AIR! They sled to the bottom of the steps and skid to a halt, fully human again.
Oh, Chip! What did I tell you? Look at you! you're a little boy again! Oh you smell so good! Calliope smiles at Chip Seeing they are the same age.
From the castle grounds, astonished villagers approach, blinking, as the veil is lifted from their memory.
Darling!? Said Jean
Mr. Potts!
Beatrice! Chip! I remember! I do!
They embrace -- a family reunited.
Among the happy villagers, we find Cogsworth.
Henry?
He spins to see Clothilde - his wife. Gulp.
Oh. DEAR!
She hugs him.
I've been so lonely.
He shuts his eyes tight and whispers to himself
Turn back into a clock... turn back into a clock...
Hey there! I'm Chip! Pleased to meet you. I'm Calliope! Call me Callie!
Lumière and Plumette embrace, then...
Lumière, look!
Oh, my Prince!
Adeline and the Prince emerge. He rushes to Lumiere.
Hello, old friend.
Lumiere is taken aback by the warm embrace of his master.
It's so good to see you!
Belle and the Prince are surrounded by the staff. Plumette curtsies to Adeline
You saved our lives, mademoiselle.
As Chip runs up with Calliope while holding hands, they hug her tight. *
Addie, it's me! It's Chip!
The entire village celebrates as Cadenza, smiling with dentures, plays the harpsichord with his beautiful wife Garderobe singing.
Tale as old as time Tune as old as song Bittersweet and strange Finding you can change Learning you were wrong
We glide past various familiar faces: LeFou; Lumière waltzing with Plumette; Cogsworth with Clothilde; Calliope and Maurice; Chip and his father, Jean the Potter... and finally Mrs. Potts. Soon Maurice goes back to sketching while Chip and Calliope dance together. She beams as she watches Belle dance with the Prince, then crosses to acknowledge Maurice, who sits at an easel, sketching the celebration.
Winter turns to spring Famine turns to feast Nature points the way Nothing left to say Beauty and the Beast
Adeline runs her hand down the Prince's smooth cheek.
What? Says the Prince
How would you feel about growing a beard?
He growls playfully. They laugh
Certain as the sun Rising in the East Tale as old as time Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
In the End, The Prince and Adeline ended up having a girl, Juliette and a boy, Benjamin (Ben). Lumière and Plumette had a girl named Rosaline. Chip and Calliope had twins named Mary-Jane and Chip Jr.
