Who would’ve paid $500 dollars to sit through that? If that’s the best Lady Tremaine can do, she really is the weakest villain yet.
Tremaine’s not the one who set the price, she said her assistant did. Just another clue that Drizella is the one who cast the Curse IMO. Tremain is totally cursed in HH, and Drizella is having too much fun pulling her mother’s strings, as some payback for how she’d controlled her all her life. Drizella set the price $50 above what Jacinda could have afforded because she hates Cinderella, and cast the curse to break up her happy little family, so setting that price would mean forcing the family apart for that particular event where Jacinda really wanted to see her kid.
Oooooh. Good theory! I wonder who Drizella would have sacrificed, though?
