- Oh, and now you do?
- Now I do.


Still got your scarf on.


All right, hop on.


All right, I gotta go down the street.


Oi! Mozart!


Yeah. Listen, I'm sorry.
It won't happen again.


Don't muck about.


You can take your whole face off.
My brother once was like,


he was just riding his bicycle,
and he hit this, like, parked car,


and he was so freaked out about
seeing his teeth in the hood,


and, like, his whole face was bleeding


then he got back on the bicycle
and he went to the movies...


Look!
Helleborus orientalis.


They're amazing.
They bloom even in the winter.


Oh, that's cool.


They just pop up without
any help from anyone.


That's like my ex-boyfriend,
if you know what I mean.


You know what I mean, right?


Really?


You don't get out much, do you?


We should talk.


- Another postcard.
- I don't care.


- What's it say?
Went ice skating.


Stop. I don't care.


- Circus.
- It's been months.


Zoo.


How could she be doing all these
things without being seen?


She can't! That's how.


Oh, honey, what are we going to do?


That's her scarf! Look.


No, she went that...


This is really good.


Oh, great. You're here.
It's your turn to buy.


All right, I lied.
I'll buy.


Oh, my God!


Somebody pull this scarf off her.
She can't breathe.


They're not running.


Ah! No! Penelope, no!
No, no, no, dear! Turn away!


She's coming out!


There she is!


Penelope, this way!
This way, Penelope!


Is it true you were
chained up in the basement?


Don't encourage them.


Penelope, do you have
any other pig parts?


With such a large nose, do you smell
better than the rest of us?


I don't know. You tell me.


Mom, can I borrow some money?
I'm running low.


Absolutely not.
You get in that car.


Mom, they want to know if you
chained me up in the basement.


Like, after three weeks, I was like,
I knew something was up.


Nose jobs only take
so long, you know.


No, of course not.


- Bye, darling.
- Bye.


Let it go, dear.


Penelope, is there anything
you'd like to say to the public?


Er... hi.


Mr Vanderman!


Is it true you attempted to file
assault charges against Penelope?


I've obtained
the police report.


No comment, please.
Ladies and gentlemen.


It's OK.
I can handle it.


That woman, that thing,
belongs in a cage.


- What a creep.
- Excuse me.


Have you lost your mind?


You saw her.
She's a complete monster.


The public loves this girl.


- They don't know her like I do.
- We're a publicly traded company.


We love what the public loves.
Get it?


So, what are you saying?


I'm saying you've got
to fix this.


I don't know what you
expect me to do.


Just fix it!


Come on, Penelope,
you're on my team!


OK, but I'm not very good.


Come on, come on, come on.


I told you
I wasrt very good.


- Hi.
- Hi.


You really did it, huh?


I mean, er... you look great,
you know, really happy.


Thanks.


Yeah. You know, you inspired me.


Doing what you did, going off
on your own like that.


- I er... l'm not...
- I have to go.


Yeah, sure. I just...


Oh, darling, I am so glad
I found you!


You must come home right now!


I have the most
wonderful surprise.


OK, Mom, but I really
should get back.


Penelope. What is this?


Listen, I'm sorry I ran
from my feelings.


Oh, is that what you were running from?


I was certain you were
running from me.


Only my feelings
for you.


- Is this a joke?
- Penelope, don't make the boy beg.


Look at that face.
He can break the curse.


But things are different now,
Mother. I...


She's overwhelmed.


Why? Because you're splattered
all over the newspapers?


No, because I have friends.


Those aren't friends, dear.
Those are fans.


'Did you hear?
The pig speaks ten languages.'


'Oh, look,
the pig can play the piano.'


You're just a talking pig to
those people. A talking pig.


Edward wants to marry you.


Are you prepared to walk away from
your one and only chance?


Our one and only chance
at a normal life?


Will you marry me, Penelope?


Hey, Lemon.


I thought you might be able to help me
with this Max Campion story I'm doing.


Well, what's the story?


I'm doing this kind of riches to rags
to armed robbery story.


Armed robbery?
Come on? Max Campion?


Yeah. I just got the call.
He's already confessed.


What?


Pick it up.


You the lawyer
my mother sent?


There's been a mistake.
I'm here to see Max Campion.


Yeah, hey, I'm Max Campion.


- No, you're not.
- Yes, I am.


No, Max Campion.


I am not deaf. I can hear you.
I am Max Campion.


But you're...


What about the guy
you play poker with?


Shaggy hair,
er... medium build.


Doesrt know when to quit.


Ah! Er... is Johnny Martin.
- Johnny Martin?


Johnny Martin.
Poor loser.


Get that down, Martin, in the
pirate pad there


Do you have...? Hey, don't!


Oh, that was so wonderful.
Was it not wonderful?


Yes, wonderful.


We have to do this again.


Now that we're
nearly family,


I think this is just the beginning.


- Yes. I'll fetch the limo.
- Good, good, good.


Can I have my coat,
please?


Oh, Franklin, we used to go out to the
theatre all the time. Why did we stop?


I guess because we had an ugly daughter.


It's true, Jessica.
We gave up everything


because we had an ugly daughter.


- Let me help you with that, sir.
- Thank you.


- It's just over there.
- OK, we're going.


- But my coat!
- Fine, we'll get you another one.


Edward, what are you doing?
Where are we going?


- Max.
- Hello, Penelope.


We were just leaving.


- Hey, how are things, Edward?
- Keep walking.


I understand it got a bit grotesque
there for a while,


even puke ugly.


- But... You two know each other?
- As a matter of fact, we do.


Yale, wasrt it?


No, I believe it was a Bedford,
a Bedford van to be...


Stop!
Havert you hurt her enough?


- Bathroom. Now.
- Edward, I...


- Why don't you let Edward handle this?
- But, Mother...


You make me sick!


Why? I'm giving her exactly
what she wants.


And I don't see anybody else
lining up to do that.


Oh, unless... unless you are.
Are you lining up?


- That's not the point.
- Yeah, it is. Yes, it is the point!


Look, if you want to go out there


and tell her that the only man willing
to stand up and say, 'I do,'


still gags at the thought of kissing her,
then be my guest,


but it's not me
you'll be hurting.


It's her, isn't it?


Johnny Martin.


- Son of a plumber, huh?
- It sure took you long enough.


Boy, you sure fooled me.


So, it looks like you were
doing her a favour after all.


- You seen this?
- Hmm. Cute couple.


Yeah. Penelope and the beast.


Hey, they're both getting
what they want, right?


I know what he's getting.
What's she getting?


Well, she's getting the day
she's waited for all her life,


breaking the curse.


Oh, you don't actually believe that,
do you?


Well, don't you?


What the hell have you been
chasing all these years?


I don't know. A wounded ego
and a missing eye, I guess.


Come on, a curse?


Yeah. Who knows? You know, you spend
enough time around a poker table,


you believe in all sorts of things.


Hey, it's not too late
to stop Edward.


That's what she wants.


Wait. If getting married is all it takes
to break the 'ooh, the curse,'...


why not you?


- You're forgetting, man. I'm not Max.
- So?


'One of their own kind'.


Hey! Over here!
I saved you a seat! lt's clean.


Hey, Annie, look at you.


Weddings are great, aren't they?


Yeah. When they're
somebody else's.


Jessica,
I need a word.


Excuse me.


What's the matter? Is there a problem?


And Edward seems
really nice.


Mom, I think I'm going to throw up.


Just remember,
in a few minutes from now,


the curse will be broken.


There is no curse. The only one
cursed here is me.


- For starters...
- Losing your eye was your own damn fault.


- Now what?
- I just wanted to apologise.


Apology not accepted.


What?!
I have a wedding to go to!


Meet Johnny Martin.


I told you not to rush
the process.


This doesn't change a thing.


How can you say that?
Not only was Edward part of...


As you yourself once said,
he's still one of our own kind.


OK, fine. What about Max, or Johnny
or whatever his name is?


What about him?


Don't you think Penelope's
entitled to know?


That he lied about everything?


That he doesn't have the
power to break the curse.


Why on earth would
she need to know that?


Don't you see? Maybe that's
the only reason he said no.


I don't know that. You don't know that.
But if that's true,


God bless him,
he did the right thing.


- Damn it, Jessica, I can't just...
- Leave it alone.


Not that I'm not happy for her.
I'm really happy for her.


You're happy for her, right?


- lf she's happy, I'm happy.
- Right.


- Mom, I feel stupid.
- Oh, you don't look stupid.


You look...


You don't look stupid.


Do you, Edward Vanderman
take Penelope Wilher


to be your lawfully wedded wife?


To have and to hold,


for better or for worse
for richer or for poorer


in sickness and in health.


To love and to cherish
from this day forward


until death do you part?


I do.


And do you, Penelope Wilhern,


take Edward Humphrey
Vanderman III


to be your lawfully wedded husband,


to have and to hold,
for better or for worse


for richer or for poorer,
in sickness and in health,


to love and to cherish
from this day forward


until death do you part?


Nobody move!
She's fine!


Penelope, wait!
Penelope! Stop!


Look at me.


I am.
What is it, dear?


No, look at me.


I am! What?
I don't understand! What do you mean?


You... I'm sorry.


Penelope, it's not too late.


Go away, Mother!


Honey, just think about
what you're doing.


This is the moment
we have worked so hard for.


I said go away!


Sweetheart, please! Please!


We are one yes away
from a whole new life.


A whole new you!


But I don't want a whole new me,
Mother!


Sweetheart, please! Please!


I like myself the way I am.


It's not going to grow back.


- What makes you think I...
- I miss it too.


And then I remembe
you're still you.


Oh, Penelope...


'One of your own kind.'
I just assumed...


No, we all did, Mother.


No, dear.
No. Don't you see?


I could have broken
the curse years ago


if I'd just done my job
as your mother,


and loved you as my own.


You didn't know.
You didn't know.


Oh, look.


You know, darling, with the
carotid artery out of the way,


I think a little turn up might,
right there, be sweet. Look at that.


What?
You're crazy.


Oh, it's wrong for a young woman
to want to look her best?


That's not a bad thing...


What?
I'm being her mother.


That's what mothers do
with daughters!


They talk about how
to look prettier.


Still, I felt sad
for my mother that day...


Why are you turning it around?
Oh, now I'm the bad guy!


... having to cope with so many
changes all at once.


It all went back to shit!


I was packing to go,


and after 25 years
with the family...


Jake, where are you going?
Jake, I'm talking to you. Jake?


And why do you have that bag?
Jake! Don't be rude!


You turn around when
I'm talking to you, please.


I happen to be...


There, there, now. There, there.


But I had my own changes
to cope with,


and, while I missed the face


that had caused
so much trouble...


... the world had
moved on.


... and I was determined
to find my own way,


and determined to always
follow my heart...


Look! My daffodil bloomed!


And I found
Helleborus orientalis!


... and my conscience.


Dear Edward, that first
day in the library,


you said that you too have felt
imprisoned most of your life.


Looking back, I now believe you
were speaking from your heart.


I fear I did you a terrible
disservice that day


I knew you would run
I wanted you to,


but perhaps if I had taken
the time to really listen to you,


maybe we could have helped
each other find our way.


I'm sorry. I hope this lette
and this ring finds you well.


Edward? Edward? Your father wants
to know what you're doing in there.


And then came Halloween.


Okay, everybody. We're going to start
in about ten minutes, so I need you


all to go and get your costumes on. OK?


Just get changed and line up
by the front door as quick as possible.


Hey! Hey! No fighting.


- I can be whoever I want!
- Girls, please.


But she knew I was
going to be Penelope.


All right, girls, you're going to have to
go out with the rest of the class.


Go and line up. Come on, line up.
Get ready to go. Come on.


Alice?
Honey, what's wrong?


Everybody's Penelope,
and I'm a stupid static cling!


Oh... Well, frankly,
I find you quite refreshing.


Come on, sweetie. Stick with me
and we'll both make it through this.


Trick or treat!


Well, hello there.


- I love this one. These are my favourites.
- Jess, you're going to want to see this.


Is this too much?


Bye.


And then Wanda couldn't hold on
to the secret any longer.


You're everywhere.
Are you freaking out or what?


- OK, 357.
- There it is.


Hold on.


What?


lt's just kind of great
to see the old you.


- OK. All right, let's go.
- All right, here we go.


You can do this.
Are you ready?


Hi. Um... l...


She's gotta pee. You got a bathroom?
I'm going to get some punch.


Er... yeah. Yeah, sure. I guess it's OK.
Come on in.


It looks like a good party.


Why aren't you at the party?


I gotta pack.


So, are you moving?


Er... out-of-town job. I felt like
getting out of the city for a while.


Away from the crowds?


Yeah, the crowds
at the poker tables.


Oh, so you're a gambler?


Ex.
Avoiding temptation.


Well, that's good.


Good for you. I er...


I had a friend once
who um... liked to gamble.


At least, well, I heard
he liked to gamble,


- And, he had to stay away from...
- Take off the mask.


What?


I'm sorry.


All Halloween,
I've been running into...


well, someone I used to know.
Sorry. Ridiculous.


This someone,
she meant a lot to you?


Yes.


Yes, she did.


What happened?


I couldn't give her
what she wanted.


What did she want?


To be free.


You shit!


You lied to me!
I guessed piano, and you said...


- Penelope, I'm sorry.
- I know.


No. I don't have the power
to break the curse.


It's OK.
It turns out that I did.


It's me, Max.


My name's Johnny.


I know. Johnny.
I'm still me.


So, there we were.


And we lived happily
ever after.


Well, happily ever after
so far at least.


I don't get it.
What does it mean?


- Well, what do you think it means?
- Rich people suck!


lt's always the mother's fault.


We're all cursed?


lt's not the power of the curse,
it's the power you give the curse.


- What did you say, Shrimp?
- He's not a shrimp, dummy.


- He is too a shrimp!
- Hey! That's not nice!


That's very good, Billy.


OK, they're serving snacks
down at the picnic tables.


Then, after break,
we'll go explore,


and see what you can collect.


Stay together.
