Dialogue

Fairy Godmother: (Looks at Red's invitation to Auradon Prep) Are you sure?

Uma: (Looks at Carlos' portrait with sadness in her eyes, knowing it's what Carlos would have wanted to see all the kingdoms united) It's what Carlos would have wanted. So don't it for me. Do it in honor of him. (Then a tear fell down at Uma's cheek, knowing she missed her friend after the events of Descendants 3 as Fairy Godmother looked at the same portrait)

(During "Love Ain't It")

[Auradon Guards]

Could it be really her?

They say there's no one worse

No one is mean, mean as the Queen

Mean as the Queen

She's been gone for years

But now she's appeared, so hide under your beds

Under your beds (Queen of Hearts: Alright, here we go!)

[Auradon Citizens]

Be careful what you do

Be careful what you say (Queen of Hearts: That's right!)

Or it'll be off your head, off your head (Queen of Hearts: Out of my way, plebs!)

Be careful where you go, don't make her upset (Queen of Hearts: Blah, blah, blah.)

Or else, it'll be off your with head

Red: (Standing up to Uliana for her constant bullying towards Bridget and Ella) Listen, squid-face, give the cupcakes back or I’ll rip that magic tongue out of your throat.

Uliana: Oh, girl. [scoffs] I only wanted the feathers. You can have the rest!
