章節 123: Princess Treatment Season 183 - Episode 751: "First Love For No Pants Subway Ride Today"
Scene 1: The Subway Encounter
INT. SUBWAY CAR – DAY
The city is alive with the clatter of subway cars. The passengers, lost in their own worlds, sit or stand with their headphones, books, or phones. Among them is Prince Cedric, dressed in a casual but stylish outfit that hints at his royal heritage. As the train jerks forward, his gaze sweeps the crowded car until it stops abruptly, locking onto Princess Arabella, who sits reading, a radiant smile on her face. Her presence seems to illuminate the otherwise mundane surroundings.
Prince Cedric (internal monologue):
How can someone make such an ordinary day seem extraordinary?
The world seems to pause around them as their eyes meet. Princess Arabella looks up, their eyes lock, and a shy smile curls on her lips. The subway car, once noisy and chaotic, now feels intimate—just the two of them, in a moment suspended in time.
Prince Cedric (to himself):
I have to speak to her.
The train continues its journey, but Cedric feels an unspoken urgency to start a conversation. He walks over, a bit nervous but determined.
Prince Cedric:
"Excuse me, but I couldn't help but notice—are you reading The Hidden Kingdom? That's one of my favorites."
Princess Arabella looks up, her smile widening.
Princess Arabella:
"Yes! It's such an incredible story. You've read it too?"
Prince Cedric:
"Many times. I think the message about finding hidden strengths resonates, especially when we least expect it."
And just like that, they begin talking, losing themselves in conversation.
Scene 2: Unlikely Connection
INT. SUBWAY – MOMENTS LATER
As the train speeds through the tunnels, Cedric and Arabella talk animatedly. Their laughter occasionally draws curious glances from other passengers, but they don't notice. The world outside the windows flashes by, but to them, time stands still.
Princess Arabella:
"You know, I never thought I'd meet someone like this... on a subway, of all places."
Prince Cedric (laughing):
"Neither did I. But I guess the best moments are the unexpected ones."
They exchange stories about their lives. Cedric mentions his royal duties and the pressures he faces, while Arabella reveals her passion for art and her dreams of traveling the world. It's a conversation that feels effortless, as if they've known each other forever.
Scene 3: The Parting Promise
INT. SUBWAY STATION – LATER
The train screeches to a halt at the next station, but neither of them is ready for this to end. The doors slide open, and people begin to file out.
Princess Arabella:
"This is my stop."
Prince Cedric (with a sense of urgency):
"Before you go—can we stay in touch?"
They exchange numbers, and Arabella gives him one last smile before stepping off the train. The doors close, and Cedric watches her disappear into the crowd, his heart pounding with excitement.
Prince Cedric (to himself):
This is only the beginning.
Scene 4: Word Spreads Through the Kingdom
INT. ROYAL PALACE – NIGHT
In the grand halls of Cedric's kingdom, news of the subway encounter quickly reaches the royal family. His parents, King Ferdinand and Queen Elara, are overjoyed at the prospect of their son finding a connection in such an unexpected way. Meanwhile, Arabella's family is equally thrilled.
Queen Elara:
"It's a true love story of our time. A royal romance, born in the most humble of places."
Preparations for a grand ball begin, the families eager to bring Cedric and Arabella together officially.
Scene 5: The Grand Ball
INT. ROYAL BALLROOM – NIGHT
The ballroom glitters with gold and crystal chandeliers, and nobles from across the land gather in excitement. Prince Cedric, dressed in his finest royal attire, stands at the entrance, waiting with bated breath. The doors swing open, revealing Princess Arabella in a stunning gown. Their eyes meet once more, and all the nervous anticipation melts away.
They move through the crowd towards each other, the room buzzing with whispers of their encounter. Cedric takes her hand, bowing slightly.
Prince Cedric:
"Shall we?"
Princess Arabella (smiling):
"I thought you'd never ask."
They glide onto the dance floor, the music swelling around them. Their steps are graceful, but it's the unspoken connection between them that captivates everyone. They dance as if they are the only two people in the room.
Scene 6: Love Blossoms
INT. GARDEN – LATER THAT NIGHT
After the ball, Cedric and Arabella escape to the palace gardens, where the stars glitter above them. They walk side by side, the cool night air refreshing after the warmth of the ballroom.
Prince Cedric:
"It's strange how quickly everything has changed. I never thought a simple subway ride would lead to this."
Princess Arabella:
"Neither did I. But I'm glad it did."
They stop under a blooming magnolia tree. Cedric turns to her, his heart full of emotion.
Prince Cedric:
"I don't want this to end, Arabella. Not tonight, not ever."
Princess Arabella:
"It won't. This is just the beginning."
They share a tender kiss under the stars, sealing the bond that began in the most unexpected place. The promise of a future filled with love, joy, and adventure hangs in the air around them.
Fade Out.
End of Episode.
Scene 7: The Garden Confession
EXT. ROYAL GARDEN – NIGHT
Under the soft glow of lanterns that line the garden path, Prince Cedric and Princess Arabella continue their quiet stroll. The night is calm, the stars twinkling overhead as the fragrance of magnolia trees fills the air. Cedric, feeling the weight of the moment, gently takes Arabella's hand.
Prince Cedric:
"I don't want this to end, Arabella. Meeting you was unexpected, but I've never felt such a connection with anyone before."
Arabella's cheeks flush slightly as she meets his gaze, her heart racing at his sincerity.
Princess Arabella:
"Neither have I, Cedric. It feels like fate brought us together, doesn't it?"
Cedric steps closer, the world outside of them fading away.
Prince Cedric:
"I believe it did. And if fate brought us together, who are we to question it?"
They stand in silence for a moment, the only sound being the rustling of leaves in the gentle breeze. Cedric reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small token, a simple gold charm that had belonged to his mother.
Prince Cedric:
"This... it's a family heirloom. My mother used to say that when I found someone who made me feel like the world could stop spinning, I should give this to her. Arabella, I want you to have it."
Princess Arabella, her eyes wide with surprise, takes the charm carefully into her hands.
Princess Arabella:
"It's beautiful, Cedric. But... are you sure? We've only just met."
Prince Cedric:
"I've never been more certain of anything in my life."
Arabella looks down at the charm, feeling a warmth spread through her chest. Her fingers close over it as she looks back at Cedric.
Princess Arabella:
"Then I will treasure it always."
Scene 8: The Royal Families' Announcement
INT. THRONE ROOM – DAY
The grand throne room is abuzz with royal advisors, nobles, and members of the press. The king and queen of both kingdoms sit on their respective thrones, prepared to make a significant announcement.
King Ferdinand (Cedric's father):
"Today marks the beginning of a new chapter for our kingdoms. Prince Cedric and Princess Arabella have met, and their union promises a future filled with unity and strength."
The room erupts into applause. Cedric and Arabella, standing side by side at the front of the hall, exchange a look of excitement and nervousness. They know that their relationship is now under the scrutiny of their families and the public.
Queen Elara (Cedric's mother):
"The grand ball confirmed what we all felt—that this is the beginning of a true love story. We are delighted to officially declare the engagement of Prince Cedric and Princess Arabella!"
The sound of the declaration causes murmurs of approval, and the press begins to furiously jot down notes. Cedric squeezes Arabella's hand, sensing her unease.
Prince Cedric (whispering):
"Don't worry. We'll figure this out, together."
Arabella nods, but the weight of the responsibility begins to sink in.
Scene 9: The Secret Conversation
INT. PALACE BALCONY – NIGHT
Later that night, after the announcement and celebration, Cedric and Arabella escape to the palace balcony to talk privately. The view of the kingdom stretches out before them, the city lights twinkling in the distance.
Princess Arabella:
"I never expected things to move so fast. I mean, I'm happy, Cedric, I really am, but all of this—royal duties, public expectations... It's overwhelming."
Cedric wraps an arm around her, pulling her close as they lean against the stone railing.
Prince Cedric:
"I know. I feel it too. But we'll take this at our own pace. No matter what the world expects, this is our story, Arabella. We'll write it the way we want to."
Arabella relaxes in his arms, feeling reassured by his words. She looks up at him, a small smile returning to her lips.
Princess Arabella:
"You're right. I'm just not used to this world, to all the royal pressure."
Prince Cedric:
"Neither am I, honestly. But as long as we're in it together, I'm not worried."
They fall into a comfortable silence, watching the city below. Cedric's heart feels light, knowing they're on the same page.
Scene 10: The Unexpected Twist
INT. PALACE COURTYARD – DAY
The next morning, the palace is bustling with activity as preparations for the official engagement ceremony begin. Suddenly, an unexpected visitor arrives—a foreign royal entourage, led by Prince Amir from a neighboring kingdom. Prince Amir, a handsome and enigmatic figure, enters the palace with purpose.
Prince Amir (to the court):
"I've come to see Princess Arabella. Our families had a long-standing agreement, one that I intend to honor."
The entire court gasps in shock, and whispers ripple through the room. Cedric, hearing the commotion, rushes in, his brow furrowed.
Prince Cedric:
"What is the meaning of this?"
Amir turns to Cedric, his eyes sharp and calculating.
Prince Amir:
"Prince Cedric, I assume? My family and Princess Arabella's family made a marriage arrangement long ago. It was decided that she would one day marry into our kingdom. It appears you've overlooked this."
Cedric looks over at Arabella, whose face has gone pale with shock. This twist threatens to unravel everything they've built.
Prince Cedric (stepping forward, firm):
"Arabella is free to make her own choices. Whatever arrangement was made in the past holds no weight now."
Prince Amir smirks, clearly enjoying the tension in the air.
Prince Amir:
"We'll see about that."
The court is left in stunned silence as Amir's words hang in the air. Arabella looks to Cedric, her eyes filled with fear and confusion. Cedric takes her hand, squeezing it tightly, silently promising her that they'll face this challenge together.
Scene 11: A Test of Love
INT. PRINCESS ARABELLA'S CHAMBERS – NIGHT
Later that night, Cedric finds Arabella pacing in her room, visibly shaken by Amir's sudden claim. He walks over to her, pulling her into a comforting embrace.
Prince Cedric:
"We'll figure this out, Arabella. No one can take away what we have."
Arabella pulls back slightly, looking into his eyes.
Princess Arabella:
"What if this arrangement... what if my family pushes me into it? What if I don't have a choice?"
Cedric cups her face gently, his voice steady.
Prince Cedric:
"You always have a choice. I won't let anyone dictate our future. Not Amir, not anyone. This is our story, and we're going to write the next chapter together."
Arabella nods, finding strength in his words. Despite the looming threat of Prince Amir's interference, Cedric and Arabella vow to fight for their love, no matter the cost.
To be continued...
Scene 11: The Unexpected Visit from Prince Amir
INT. PALACE THRONE ROOM – DAY
The grand doors of the palace throne room swing open, and the royal court gathers with whispers of anticipation. Prince Amir, a tall and striking figure with sharp features, enters the room accompanied by his entourage. His presence commands attention, and he strides confidently toward the throne where King Ferdinand and Queen Elara sit. Prince Cedric stands by his parents, his hand instinctively resting on the hilt of his ceremonial sword. He doesn't like the way Amir's eyes search the room—almost as if he's hunting for something.
Prince Amir:
"I come with an important matter concerning Princess Arabella."
The room grows tense. Cedric steps forward, his jaw clenched.
Prince Cedric:
"Arabella? What business do you have with her?"
Amir's gaze lands on Cedric, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Prince Amir:
"Before your encounter on that subway, our families had a long-standing agreement—one that involves Princess Arabella's hand in marriage. I've come to claim what was promised."
The air thickens with shock as murmurs ripple through the court. Cedric's heart pounds in his chest, disbelief flashing in his eyes.
King Ferdinand:
"I was not informed of this arrangement. Who made such a promise?"
Prince Amir:
"My father and Arabella's father discussed it years ago. It was meant to unite our kingdoms. But it seems that certain... complications have arisen."
Princess Arabella suddenly enters the room, having heard the commotion. She approaches, her brow furrowed in confusion.
Princess Arabella:
"What is going on?"
Cedric moves protectively toward her, standing by her side.
Prince Cedric:
"Arabella, this man claims that you were promised to him."
Arabella's face turns pale as her mind races. She remembers vague whispers of her father mentioning alliances when she was younger, but she never imagined it would come to this.
Princess Arabella:
"That... that was a long time ago. My father never said anything about it being final."
Amir steps forward, his voice calm but insistent.
Prince Amir:
"Perhaps it was not meant to be final then, but I am here now, and the arrangement can be honored. Our kingdoms would benefit greatly from this union."
Cedric steps closer to Arabella, his voice firm and protective.
Prince Cedric:
"Arabella is not a bargaining chip between kingdoms. She has the right to choose who she wants to be with."
Princess Arabella:
"I won't be forced into anything. My heart belongs to someone else."
The tension in the room is palpable. Amir's eyes flicker between Cedric and Arabella, his expression unreadable.
Prince Amir:
"I see. But remember, a royal duty is often greater than one's personal desires."
With that, Amir bows slightly, then turns and exits the throne room, leaving behind a ripple of unease.
Scene 12: A Decision to Be Made
INT. PRINCESS ARABELLA'S CHAMBERS – NIGHT
Later that evening, Arabella sits at her vanity, her thoughts racing. Cedric knocks softly before entering the room. He walks over and kneels beside her, gently taking her hand.
Prince Cedric:
"Are you alright?"
Arabella looks down, her fingers gripping the charm Cedric had given her the night before.
Princess Arabella:
"I don't know. I never wanted my life to be dictated by politics. But now it feels like everything is spinning out of control."
Cedric lifts her hand to his lips, brushing it softly with a kiss.
Prince Cedric:
"We'll figure this out, together. You don't have to face this alone."
Arabella smiles softly, her heart calming slightly in his presence.
Princess Arabella:
"I know. But what if the pressure becomes too much? What if I have no choice but to honor this old agreement?"
Cedric's eyes darken with determination.
Prince Cedric:
"We'll find a way. No one can force you to marry someone you don't love. I won't let that happen."
They sit in silence for a moment, the weight of the situation settling around them like a thick fog.
Scene 13: The Secret Alliance
INT. PRINCE AMIR'S QUARTERS – NIGHT
Meanwhile, in the dimly lit guest quarters, Prince Amir stands by the window, staring out into the moonlit night. His advisor, Lord Khalid, steps forward.
Lord Khalid:
"Your Highness, what do you plan to do now? Clearly, Princess Arabella has formed an attachment to Prince Cedric."
Amir's eyes glint with cold calculation.
Prince Amir:
"Attachments can be broken. Cedric may have her heart for now, but I have something far more valuable—the political advantage. If I can win over the council and the nobles, Arabella will have no choice but to reconsider."
Lord Khalid:
"And if she does not?"
Amir's lips curl into a half-smile.
Prince Amir:
"Then I'll make sure she sees the benefit of our union—by any means necessary."
Scene 14: The Bond Grows Stronger
INT. PALACE GARDEN – DAY
The next day, Cedric and Arabella meet in the palace gardens. The sunlight filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows across the cobblestone path. They walk in comfortable silence for a while before Arabella speaks.
Princess Arabella:
"I've been thinking... about us. About everything."
Cedric stops and turns to face her, concern flickering in his eyes.
Prince Cedric:
"What are you thinking?"
Princess Arabella:
"No matter what happens, no matter the pressure or the expectations... I want to choose you, Cedric. You've shown me what real love is, and I won't let anyone take that away from me."
Cedric smiles, his heart swelling with emotion. He takes both her hands in his, pulling her close.
Prince Cedric:
"Then we'll fight for this. Together. Nothing will tear us apart, Arabella."
They stand in the garden, wrapped in each other's arms, unaware of the looming storm on the horizon.
TO BE CONTINUED...
Scene 14: The Bond Grows Stronger
INT. PALACE GARDEN – DAY
The next day, Cedric and Arabella stroll through the lush palace gardens, a tapestry of blooming flowers and vibrant greenery. The sun filters through the leaves, casting playful shadows on their path. Laughter echoes as they share stories of their childhood, the air between them charged with growing affection.
Prince Cedric:
"I once tried to impress a girl by climbing a tree to get her a bird's nest. I ended up falling right into a muddy puddle. Safe to say, it didn't work out."
Arabella bursts into laughter, her eyes sparkling.
Princess Arabella:
"That's quite the story! I once tried to bake cookies for my mother's birthday, but I mistook salt for sugar. Let's just say, it was a 'unique' treat!"
Prince Cedric:
"At least you tried! That's what counts."
As they walk, their hands brush against each other, and Cedric gathers the courage to take her hand fully, intertwining their fingers. Arabella glances at him, surprised but delighted.
Scene 15: The Royal Announcement
INT. THRONE ROOM – LATER THAT DAY
The throne room is bustling with courtiers and nobles. King Ferdinand stands to announce the upcoming union between Prince Cedric and Princess Arabella. The air is thick with anticipation.
King Ferdinand:
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is my great pleasure to announce the engagement of our beloved son, Prince Cedric, to the enchanting Princess Arabella. Together, they will forge a bond that strengthens our kingdoms!"
Cheers erupt from the crowd, but Amir's face darkens in the corner, his hands clenched into fists.
Scene 16: A Plot Unfolds
INT. PRINCE AMIR'S QUARTERS – NIGHT
Amir paces in his opulent quarters, frustration boiling beneath his calm exterior. He slams his hand on the table, causing the candles to flicker.
Prince Amir:
"This cannot be allowed to happen. I will not lose Arabella to a mere chance encounter on a subway. I must take action."
He turns to his advisor, Lord Khalid, who leans against the wall with a worried expression.
Lord Khalid:
"Your Highness, what do you intend to do? You know a direct confrontation would be disastrous."
Amir's expression shifts to one of cunning resolve.
Prince Amir:
"No, I need to be more strategic. I'll play the long game. If I can uncover a secret about Cedric, something that could discredit him, I can separate them."
Scene 17: A Night Under the Stars
EXT. PALACE BALCONY – NIGHT
Cedric and Arabella stand on the balcony, the moonlight bathing them in silver. The stars twinkle above as they lean against the railing, enjoying a moment of quiet away from the festivities.
Princess Arabella:
"It feels surreal, doesn't it? Just yesterday, we were strangers, and now… I can't imagine my life without you."
Cedric turns to her, his expression serious.
Prince Cedric:
"I've never felt this way about anyone before, Arabella. You've brought joy into my life in ways I never thought possible."
Arabella's heart swells with affection. She takes a deep breath, her voice barely above a whisper.
Princess Arabella:
"I feel it too. But with Amir's claim still lingering, do you think our love can withstand the pressures of royalty?"
Cedric cups her face gently, looking deeply into her eyes.
Prince Cedric:
"As long as we stand together, I believe we can face anything. Our love will be our strength."
Scene 18: The Confrontation
INT. THRONE ROOM – THE NEXT DAY
The court is assembled once more, the atmosphere charged with tension. Amir steps forward, interrupting a meeting regarding the engagement.
Prince Amir:
"Excuse me, Your Majesties. I have information that demands your attention before any further decisions are made."
Cedric and Arabella exchange worried glances.
King Ferdinand:
"What is it, Amir?"
Amir smirks slightly, a glimmer of satisfaction in his eyes.
Prince Amir:
"I have evidence that Prince Cedric was not entirely truthful during his subway encounter with Princess Arabella. I believe it's essential for the court to hear this."
Scene 19: The Royal Revelation
INT. THRONE ROOM – MOMENTS LATER
The court leans in, curious and apprehensive. Cedric straightens, ready to defend himself.
Prince Cedric:
"What are you implying, Amir? I have nothing to hide."
Prince Amir:
"Ah, but does everyone know about your little escapade with a commoner before meeting Arabella? Surely, a prince with such a reputation cannot be trusted to lead our kingdoms."
Gasps echo around the throne room as the nobles murmur. Cedric's heart sinks, the weight of Amir's words heavy in the air.
Princess Arabella:
"Cedric, is this true?"
Cedric's expression hardens, and he takes a step forward, eyes blazing.
Prince Cedric:
"I will not let rumors dictate my worth or my love for you, Arabella. I was young and foolish, but that doesn't define who I am now."
Scene 20: The Final Stand
INT. THRONE ROOM – CONTINUOUS
Arabella steps closer to Cedric, her voice strong.
Princess Arabella:
"If love is to conquer all, then we must face this together. I refuse to let Amir's deceit tear us apart."
The court quiets as the two stand united, their bond evident even in the face of opposition.
King Ferdinand:
"Enough! We will not allow slander to ruin this joyous occasion. I will investigate this matter further, but I stand by my son and his choice."
The crowd erupts in applause, but Amir's face twists in anger.
Scene 21: A Promise Made
EXT. PALACE GARDEN – LATER
Cedric and Arabella retreat to the garden, the sun shining brightly above them. They sit on a bench, the weight of the day's events still heavy but their resolve unbroken.
Prince Cedric:
"I won't let Amir win. I promise to fight for us, no matter what it takes."
Arabella nods, her heart swelling with hope.
Princess Arabella:
"And I will stand by you. Together, we can overcome anything."
As they sit in the tranquil garden, their hands entwined, the future remains uncertain, but their love burns brightly, illuminating the path ahead.
FADE OUT.

INT. THRONE ROOM – CONTINUOUS
The tension in the throne room reaches a breaking point. Cedric stands tall, the determination in his eyes unwavering. Arabella steps closer to him, her heart racing.
Princess Arabella:
"Cedric, your past doesn't define our future. What matters is how we feel right now. I believe in you."
The crowd shifts uneasily, the nobles whispering amongst themselves. King Ferdinand raises a hand to silence them.
King Ferdinand:
"Enough! This is not the place for personal vendettas, Amir. If you have evidence, present it. If not, you will not slander my son in front of the court."
Amir clenches his jaw but maintains a smug expression, knowing he has set the stage.
Prince Amir:
"Very well, but be warned. If this union proceeds, it may not end well for either of you."
Scene 21: The Unexpected Ally
INT. THRONE ROOM – MOMENTS LATER
Before Amir can further his claims, a voice echoes through the chamber. It's Princess Isabella, Arabella's older sister, who steps forward, her expression resolute.
Princess Isabella:
"Amir, I've heard your whispers of deceit, and I know the truth. I was there the day Cedric and Arabella met on the subway. It was a chance encounter, yes, but it was pure and genuine. Love cannot be manufactured or tarnished by the past."
The nobles murmur, surprised by Isabella's unexpected defense of Cedric.
Princess Isabella:
"Let us not forget the importance of love and the hope it brings to our kingdoms. This union could strengthen our ties, not tear them apart."

"We stand together, no matter what challenges come our way."
Scene 23: Amir's Retreat
INT. THRONE ROOM – MOMENTS LATER
Amir's façade cracks slightly, frustration simmering beneath his composed exterior. He tries to regain control of the room.

He turns and storms out, leaving the court buzzing with excitement and speculation.

Later that evening, Cedric and Arabella find themselves alone again, the stars shining brightly above.
Prince Cedric:

Arabella looks up at him, her heart swelling with admiration.
Princess Arabella:
"You've shown such courage today. I am proud to stand by your side. No matter what Amir throws at us, we will face it together."
They lean in closer, foreheads touching as they share a tender moment, the world around them fading away.
