(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
BEATIE: I can't believe you traded Great-Granny Oakle's
perfectly disgusting cauldron for that mirror.
HILDIE: It's not just any mirror, it's a magic mirror.
A boar's hair to the left, Thomas.
BEATIE: Magic mirror. HILDIE: Hmm, it's true.
When I looked into the mirror,
I saw the image of Tom hanging it in this very spot.
Now, just a smooch to the right.
(SCREAMS)
See, the mirror predicted that was going to happen, too.
Perfect, Thomas.
Now, be a dear and finish hanging the mirror while we prepare lunch.
(WHISTLES)
(SHRIEKS)
For bringing me into your home so dear,
I can show you your future.
Just look into the mirror.
They say curiosity killed the cat,
but you don't believe silly proverbs such as that.
Since when have Hildie and Beatie ever fed you a whole fish, huh?
This mirror is taking you as a fool.
You, my friend, are nobody's fool, no?
NEWT: Yes.
I thought not.
Believe it or not, it's entirely up to you.
But what you've been shown will most certainly come true.
HILDIE: Thomas, lunch! I've cooked you an extra special treat.
(SNIFFING)
HILDIE: Just a little thank you for hanging the magic mirror.
(YELLS)
HILDIE: We're off to run some errands, Thomas.
You be a good kitty while we're gone, you hear?
I see you've come back for more.
Let's see what else your future has in store.
(SHRIEKS)
(LAUGHS)
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.
What happens next is entirely up to you.
(COUGHING)
Oh, silly cat, you've wasted your time.
How should I put this in my usual rhyme?
Sometimes your efforts to put your fate in reverse
don't make things better, they actually make them worse.
(MAGIC MIRROR LAUGHS WICKEDLY)
BERTIE: Thomas, what have you done? Look at you!
(GASPS) Look at me!
(LAUGHS)
(TOM SCREAMS)
(HAMMERING)
(HORSE NEIGHS)
(LOUD CRASHES)
(HORSE NEIGHING)
Yee-haw!
(SCREAMS)
(CHIRPING)
If you've lost my head,
you're going to need more than nine lives to survive my wrath.
(LAUGHING)
Oh, dear, you've done it again.
You've made matters worse by a factor of ten.
You know what they say,
if first you don't succeed, try, try again or this fate is guaranteed.
(PROPELLER WHIRRING)

(LOUD ROAR)
Third time's a charm, they always say.
So let's see your fate, without delay.
BERTIE: Stop it! I don't have your head.
Thomas does!
(LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY)
(THUDS)
(SIZZLING)
HILDIE: Thomas, we're home.
Thomas, are you in here?
Stop it, Hildie!
I don't have your head. Thomas does!
HILDIE: How did this happen?
HILDIE: When I get my head on straight,
you're in big, big trouble, Thomas!
I've seen the fate of princes and paupers, kings and queens,
but this may be the strangest fate that I have ever seen.
HILDIE: Turn around! Turn around!
(LAUGHING)
