CINDY
I just assumed a witch put the Prince to sleep. They didn't?
WOLF
No, they didn't. That's a misconfection.
CINDY
A what?
WOLF
When someone thinks you're one way, but you're not.
CINDY
I know what that's like. Everyone think princesses are pretty and happy and fragile. But I'm not.
WOLF
You are pretty, Cindy. Really.
CINDY
See. And you probably think I'm happy too, but I'm not. I'm downright depressed.
WOLF
Need a scratch behind the ear?
(WOLF scratches behind her ear and she thumps her foot)
CINDY
Hey, that does help.
WOLF
I have to admit, you do look a bit fragile though.
CINDY
See... everyone looks at me and sees a delicate flower, when in reality, I'm a deadly fighting machine ready to strike.
WOLF
(Snickers)
Really?
(CINDY does some karate moves and grabs WOLF by the arm and spins him to the floor in a heap)
CINDY
Are you okay?
WOLF
Mommy.
CINDY
I'm so sorry.
WOLF
No, I'm fine.
CINDY
You sure?
WOLF
Sure, sure. I just need a moment to get the feeling back in my body.
CINDY
I don't know my own strength.
