Introduction of Mrs. Whatsit and Clarification
Mrs. Whatsit
Call me Mrs. Whatsit.
Meg
Mrs. who?
[skeptically]
Mrs. Whatsit
No, Mrs. Whatsit. Mrs. Who is... She's like a billion years older, and way more knowledgeable.

Charles Wallace
Have I ever been wrong?
Meg
One of these days, you might be, Charles Wallace.
Mrs. Whatsit
Oh, I highly doubt that. He's one of the greatest minds in recent history. He's prodigious. But of course, we can't take any credit for our talents. It's how we use them that counts.

Dinner Invitation Amidst Uncertainty and Loss
Beast
You'll join me for dinner. That's not a request.
[to Belle, gruffly]
Mrs. Potts
Gently, Master. The girl lost her father and her freedom in one day.

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.

Sweet!

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
Will you join me for dinner?
[his smile vanishes; graciously]
Belle
You've taken me as your prisoner, and now you want to have dinner with me? Are you insane?
[scoffs]
Plumette
Uh-oh! He's losing it!
Cogsworth
Oh, dear!
Beast
I told you to join me for dinner!
[pounds on Belle's door repeatedly, angrily yelling]
Belle
And I told you no!
[angrily]
Madame Garderobe
Oh, what time is it? What's happening?
[awakens startled]
Belle
I'd starve before I ever eat with you!
Beast
Well, be my guest! Go ahead and starve! If she doesn't eat with me, then she doesn't eat at all! Idiots!
[roaring ferociously; to Lumiere angrily; storms off]

True Love Prevails in Unexpected Moments
Cogsworth
Well, Master, I have had my doubts, but everything is moving like clockwork. True love really does win the day!
Beast
I let her go.
Cogsworth
You... what?!
Lumière
Master, how could you do that?
Beast
I had to.
Cogsworth
But why?
Mrs. Potts
Because he loves her.
Lumière
Then why are we not human?
Cogsworth
Because she doesn't love him and now it's too late.
Plumette
But, she might still come back.
Beast
No. I set her free. I'm sorry I couldn't do the same for all of you. Now, go. Our time is almost past.
Lumière
Come, my love.
Beast
I was the one who had it all,I was the master of my fate.I never needed anybody in my life,I learned the truth too late.I'll never shake away the pain,I close my eyes but she's still there.I let her steal into my melancholy heart,It's more than I can bear.
