Beauty and the Beast - Dinner Invitation Amidst Uncertainty and Loss

Beast: [to Belle, gruffly] You'll join me for dinner. That's not a request.
Mrs. Potts: Gently, Master. The girl lost her father and her freedom in one day.
Lumière: Yes, the poor thing is probably in there scared to death.
Belle: Just a minute.
Lumière: You see? There she is. Now remember: Be gentle.
Mrs. Potts: Kind.
Plumette: Mmm, charming.
Cogsworth: Sweet!
Lumière: And when she opens the door, give her a dashing, debonaire smile! Come, come, show me the smile!
Cogsworth: Oh, dear!
Plumette: Oh, no!
Beast: [his smile vanishes; graciously] Will you join me for dinner?
Belle: [scoffs] You've taken me as your prisoner, and now you want to have dinner with me? Are you insane?
Plumette: Uh-oh! He's losing it!
Cogsworth: Oh, dear!
Beast: [pounds on Belle's door repeatedly, angrily yelling] I told you to join me for dinner!
Belle: [angrily] And I told you no!
Madame Garderobe: [awakens startled] Oh, what time is it? What's happening?
Belle: I'd starve before I ever eat with you!
Beast: [roaring ferociously; to Lumiere angrily; storms off] Well, be my guest! Go ahead and starve! If she doesn't eat with me, then she doesn't eat at all! Idiots!
