And he said he'd rather die than cause her pain! And she said she couldn't bear to cause him pain, either!Īnd it was just the cutest thing because we all know where this is headed. But she said she couldn't promise that because she really needed to go see her father. Then one night he was feeling especially needy and he asked her to never leave him. Mostly, he took it on the chin like a champ. Plus! As if it wasn't bad enough that he looks like a fugly animal, he also has to pretend to be kind of dull-witted for some reason.Įvery night he would ask her to marry him, and every night she would friend zone him. There was no rose other than the one her father took.Īnd there was no time limit for her to fall in love with him. Oh, and the rose with all the petals falling?! Remember when the last rose petal fell and your 10-year-old self got all choked up because you just knew it was all too late, and she had waited too long to tell him she loved him, and you kind of hated her for a minute? Meanwhile, they were both lazy golddiggers.īottom line was that Beauty was a good kid, and when she found out it was her rose that cost her father his freedom, she forced the issue and followed her father back to the castle to insist the Beast let her swap. Her brothers, who were actually pretty nice, but were always on the periphery of the story.Īnd then 2 spoiled a-hole sisters who hated her guts because she was humble and treated everyone with kindness. Plural.īeauty, who was sweet, self-sacrificing, & hard working.

On the upside, her father wasn't willing to let any of his daughters take his place and only agreed to go back home so that he could say goodbye. Her dad got lost, found a magic castle, picked a rose, and almost got himself eaten by a beast. Well, that went pretty much like you'd think. You know, besides the whole keeping her prisoner thing.

In the original, Beast was actually concerned with what Beauty wanted and willing to listen to her needs. In fact, he asked if she minded if he sat with her while she ate but added that if she didn't want him there, he'd just leave. Once again, I'm shocked by the original tale.
