Maid Marian

ONCE   UPON   A   TIME    ~

Evil Queen

“Silence! You know the penalty if you fail.” “I’ll share a secret with you. This is no ordinary ____, it’s a magic wishing ____.” “One bite, and all your dreams will come true.” “Now, make a wish, and take a bite.” “I’ll fix ya! I’ll crush your bones!” “All alone, my pet?”

Strombolli

“There! This will be your home - where I can find you always!” “You will make lots of money… For me!” “QUIET! Shut up before I *knock* you silly!”

Lady Tremaine

“Well, I see no reason why you can’t go… if you get all your work done.” “Get up. Quick, this instant! We haven’t a moment to lose!” “You clumsy little fool!” “Oh. Well, don’t just stand there. Bring up the breakfast trays at once, and hurry!” “Hold your tongue! Now, it seems we have time on our hands.” “Wouldn’t you prefer to eat when all the work is done?”  “What on earth have you’ve been doing?” “It would be an insult to take you to the palace dressed in these old rags.” “I forbid you to do this!” “How charming, how perfectly charming.” “Why? Because YOU are *young*, and *innocent*, and *good*, and I…” “And so, I lived unhappily ever after.”

Queen of Hearts/Red Queen

“I warn you, child… if I lose my temper, you lose your head! Understand?” “Your way? All ways here are my ways!” Curtsy while you’re thinking. It saves time.” “How would you like to have your head hacked off?” “Never mind him/her. (S)he’s mad.” “It is far better to be feared than loved.”

Captain Hook

“Thank you, me dear, you’ve been most helpful.” “So passes on a worthy opponent.” “Good, then let’s have at it!” “And that’s why I asked you over, my dear.” “A jealous female can be tricked into anything.” “Oh, a little persuasion might be in order.”

Maleficent

“Why so melancholy? A wondrous future lies before you - you, the destined hero(ine) of a charming fairy tale come true.” “Oh, they’re hopeless. A disgrace to the forces of evil.” “Touch the spindle. Touch it I say!” “You poor, simple fools. Thinking you could defeat me. Well, here’s your precious *(prince)ss*!” “Are you sure you searched everywhere?” “I must say, I really felt quite distressed at not receiving an invitation.” “Oh dear! What an awkward situation.” “This curse will last till the end of time! No power on ____ can change it!” “I like you begging. Do it again.”

I tell you, it’s got to be done tonight!” So they thought they could outwit ____?” “What kind of sycophant are you?” “We lose more women to marriage than war, famine, and disease.” “Darling, red isn’t your color.” “Be sure to let me know when the blessed event occurs.” “My faith in your limited intelligence is momentarily restored.”

Madame Mim

“Now, first of all, if you don’t mind, I’ll make the rules.” “Sounds like someone’s sick. How lovely.” “So, my boy/girl, I’m afraid I’ll have to destroy you.” “Yeah, I-I’ll give you a sporting chance. I’m mad about games, you know.” “And (s)he must see something good in you.”

Shere Khan

“I can’t be bothered with that, I have no time for that nonesense.” “Perhaps. But at the moment I’m searching for a ____.” “Why should you run? Is it possible that you don’t know who I am? Precisely. And you should know that everyone runs from ____.” “Ah, you have spirit for one so small.” “Now, I’m going to close my eyes and count to ten. It makes the chase more interesting… for me.”  “Does my face not remind you of what grown man can do?” “All I ask for is one thing and you denied me. Well that ends now.” 

Edgar

Prince John

“____, with you around, who needs a court jester?” “You’re never around when I need you!” “I told you never to mention ____’s name!” “Get out of that if you can.” “I sentence you to sudden, instant, and even immediate death!” “My dear, emotional lady, why should I?” “Young love, your pleads have not fallen upon a heart of stone. But traitors must die!” “This crown gives me a feeling of power! Power! Forgive me a cruel chuckle. Heh-heh-heh. Power.” “Stop sniveling and hold still.”

Madame Medusa

“You must gain their confidence… make them like you.” “Now, I’m going to let bygones be bygones. Do you know what would make Auntie/Uncle ____ very happy?” “Of course, you have. But we must try harder, mustn’t we?” “Adopted? What makes you think anyone would want a homely little girl/boy like you?” “Not until you get the diamond!”
