A book opens up, showing the school of Ever After High.
|
Male narrator:
|
Once upon a time...
|
Female narrator:
|
In a land beyond imagination... [birds twitter]
|
Male narrator:
|
Comes the tale of Ever After High. [students chatting]
|
Female narrator:
|
A high school for the next generation of fairy tales. Each student is charged with following in the footsteps of their fairy tale parents [sheep bleat], ensuring their classic stories will continue to be told. But one student, Raven Queen, [Raven walks into school] daughter of the Evil Queen, doesn't want to follow in her mother's villainous path. [students whisper about Raven.]
|
Male narrator:
|
And can you blame her? I mean, who wants to be the most hated of them all?
|
Pig #3:
|
[gestures to Raven] Run!
|
Son of the Hero of Haarlem:
|
[points at Raven] She. Is. Evil!
|
Raven Queen
|
[walking with Madeline Hatter] What if I want to choose my own Happily Ever After?
|
Male narrator:
|
And this rebellion did not sit well for the Royals at the school [students cheer while Apple and Daring Charming walk down stairs and the thrid pig faints], led by Apple White, daughter of Snow White.
|
Apple White:
|
[Apple puts her hand over Daring's mouth] She has to do it! I mean, if-if she never poisons me, then I'll never fall asleep, and-and I'll never be kissed by my prince, and I'll never become queen, and I'll never have my Happily Ever After! [Apple puts her hands out, shakes Daring, and walks worriedly while talking]
|
|
Screening focuses on the Rebels.
|
Female narrator:
|
And so we find a school divided. [screen focuses on Royals] You have the Royals, who were promised their Happily Ever Afters. [Apple and Briar walk together in the Enchanted Forest while birds carry Apple's luggage.] Like Apple's best friend forever after, Briar Beauty.
|
Briar Beauty:
|
Daughter of Sleeping Beauty! If I'm gonna be catching Z's for a hundred years, I gotta live it up now!
|
|
Ashlynn is looking out the window.
|
Male narrator:
|
Ashlynn Ella, the Royal daughter of Cinderella.
|
Ashlynn Ella:
|
[Excitedly.] New shoes?! [Squealing.]
|
Female narrator:
|
[Blondie unlocks her Mirror Pad.] And Blondie Lockes, daughter of Goldilocks, who's also a royal. [Blondie records Apple and Daring on her Mirror Pad.] Nah, kind of.
|
Male narrator:
|
[Cedar, Maddie, Raven, and Hunter are shown at Legacy Day practice.] On the other hand you have the Rebels, who feel they should be able to conjure up their own destinies.
|
Cedar Wood:
|
I'm-I'm Cedar Wood and-uh I pledge to follow my destiny and be the next Pinocchio. Well, I mean, not the next Pinocchio... huh.
|
Male narrator:
|
[Cerise walks by the lunch tables with her lunch tray.] And then there's Cerise Hood [Daring flashes his smile in Cerise's face], daughter of Little Red Riding Hood.
|
Cerise Hood:
|
Rrrr! Ghm-ghm-gehm-ehm.
|
Male narrator:
|
Let's just say, well, she's hiding a secret. [Cerise pulls her hood over her head and runs off.]
|
Female narrator:
|
A big bad secret. [Maddie walks] Madeline Hatter, daughter of the Mad Hatter.
|
Madeline Hatter:
|
Hello, narrators! Isn't it a hat-tastic day? [Maddie bows to the Narrators and pulls a cup of tea out of her hat.]
|
Female Narrator:
|
She can hear us. [Hunter walks by two girls and Daring and Hopper in the castleteria.] And since every fairy tale needs a Prince Charming, Ever After High is full of Prince Charmings.
|
Dexter Charming:
|
[Dexter walks up to Raven and waves.] Hey, Raven! Uh-You look gort... I mean great.
|
|
A girl kisses Hopper, who then falls off the banister, and Daring flashes his smile.
|
Male narrator:
|
[The unempty halls of Ever After High are shown.] And of course there's... wait, what? Only ten seconds left? But there's so much more to say!
|
Female narrator:
|
[Ashlynn and Hunter secretly text.] Ashlynn and Hunter are secretly dating. [Tiny is shown.] There's a giant named Tiny.
|
Tiny:
|
Hi!
|
Female narrator:
|
[Milton Grimm is shown, then his brother Giles.] And the headmaster has a brother he's locked in the secret library underneath the school!
|
Male narrator:
|
[The screen moves out of Ever After High.] And so, there you go! The story of Ever After High.
|
Female narrator:
|
The end...
|
Male narrator:
|
Is just the beginning.
