INT. DANCE STUDIO - DAY

Cinderella enters the studio wearing rags and a mask over her face, ready to work. She sees a stereo.

CINDERELLA

Music should make this a little less painful.

She sets down her mop and bucket. Syncs her Mirror phone to the stereo, starts up her Tinker Bell music app, and plays "A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes." She picks up her mop, dips it into the bucket and mops the floor. She catches herself in the mirror. Attempts a move she saw Jacques do. Not bad. She tries another, and another until she's dancing and twirling around the room with her mop.

Aurora walks by and sees Cinderella through the glass. She smiles, takes out her Mirror phone and records her. She walks away.

When the song is over Cinderella stands before the mirror, smiling at herself, exhilarated. She checks the clock. It's barely moved. She gets back to work.
