Char
- Char: Traveling with an elf? What? Your boyfriend couldn't make it?
- Ella: No.
- Char: [disappointed] Oh.
- Ella: Because I don't have a boyfriend.
- Char: [happily] Oh.
- Ella: What about you? Your girlfriend doesn't mind being left alone?
- Char: I don't have a girlfriend.
- Ella: [happily] Oh.
- Char: I have many.
- Ella: [disappointed] Oh.
- Char: I'm kidding, you shouldn't believe everything you read in Medieval Teen.
- Fan Club Girl: Prince Charmont, are you a fast runner?
- Char: Not particularly, no. Why?
- Fan Club Girl: Get him!
- [a mob of girls start chasing Char]
- Char: These last few days have been so perfect. Except for the bit where we almost got eaten by ogres. And you wrote a letter that ripped out my heart. And I had to dance with Hattie.
- Char: You can curtsy or not; that's your choice. There's nothing I can do about it... except have you beheaded, but that seems a bit extreme.
- Ella: You're about to become king. You'll have the power to make a difference in the world, and you don't even care.
- Char: It's not like I asked to become king. I have no say in the matter.
- Ella: Well thanks to your uncle, there are a lot of people who have no say in the matter. Nobody should be forced to do things they don't want to do. Take it from somebody who knows.
- Ella: I don't need your chivalry, thanks. And I have no intention of curtsying either, so you can *forget it.*
- Char: Uh, well, you can curtsy or not, that's your choice. There's really nothing I can do about it. Except to have you beheaded, but that seems a bit extreme.
- Ella: Charming. Why don't you do what your people usually do? Steal my land, and then destroy my livelihood. Now, if you'll excuse me...
- [walks off, on her way]
- Char: Wait a second!
- [snaps his fingers]
- Char: Come back here!
- [and as is Ella's curse, her spell kicks in]
- Char: I suppose that dagger that you were ready to plunge into my heart was just an early wedding present.
- Char: [Char swings by on a rope, tossing Ella a sword and grabbing one for himself] I can't believe I'm saving you, after you tried to kill me!
- Ella: I didn't try to kill you.
- Char: [to a member of the Red Guard trying to kill Ella] You stay away from her!
- Char: [both of them fight back some guys] What, so that dagger you were about to plunge in my back was just an early wedding present?
- Ella: [a guy goes to attack Ella, and Char fights him back. Benny gets turned into a pumpkin accidently. The Red Guards keep attacking] Okay, maybe I did try to kill you, but that wasn't me.
- Char: What?
- Ella: Okay, maybe it was me, but it wasn't my fault.
- [Ella and Char duck right as a guard attacks, causing him to hit 2 guards behind them]
- Ella: [Benny gets turned into a man and joins the fight] ... then Edgar found out about the curse and he ordered me to kill you.
- [Char fights off a guy behind Ella]
- Ella: And the only way I could think of to stop it was to break up with you, even though I'm pretty sure that you're the best thing that's ever happened to me.
- [while still lookingn at Ella as she explains, Char fights a guy attacking him from behind]
- Ella: And that crown he's about to put on your head...
- [Ella helps with the guy behind Char]
- Ella: It's a trick. It's poisoned.
- Char: Duck.
- [Ella ducks, as Char swings his stick around, hitting all three Red Guard attacking them]
- Ella: [Ella stands up, looking around, rather shocked, at the men on the ground] Whoa.
- Char: Edgar's trying to kill me?
- Ella: Yes. I - hold on.
- [Ella jumps up and kicks a Red Guard behind her, taking him out, rather swiftly]
- Ella: [Ella's stepmother is appalled by the act, Heston moves through the crowd] Uh, Char, there's one more thing.
- [Edgar throws a shield of of himself and stands. Char looks straight at Ella]
- Ella: He killed your father...
