Synopsis
THE IMPOSSIBLE PRINCESS - SYNOPSIS
Prince Lorenzo is being forced into marriage by his mother, Queen Hilary. Yet, after presenting hundreds of eligible princesses before him, Lorenzo is unable to choose one to be his wife. Mum the Queen is furious. Why marry for love when you can marry for money?
Hilary calls on her underground servant, the feral Malnormus, who has been gathering the princesses. He is also in it for the money, and the Queen has promised him his just deserves once Lorenzo is married.
On a stormy night, whilst the King, Queen and Lorenzo are seated at the dinner table, there is a knock on the royal door. Lorenzo opens it to discover a woman, drenched to the bone, looking for shelter. Much to the Queen's chargrin, Melody is granted entry and allowed to stay the night. Lorenzo is smitten, and confesses to his father, King Darien that he has fallen in love with her. Darien, although shocked, agrees that if it true love, then they will be married. However, the Queen is convinced that Melody is nothing more than a street rat, and challenges the king (as she often does!). It is decided to test Melody to see if she is worthy of being a princess.
Queen Hilary and Malnormus begin to plot and scheme tests to catch Melody out. Meanwhile, Melody and Lorenzo confess their love. The tests begin, and they are tough and arduous. But the servants, having always hated the Queen, have taken a liking to Melody, and help her by revealing the answers to the tests.
The Queen is furious! Time after time, Melody passes the tests. Finally, the Queen seems to give up and beckons Melody to have a goodnight sleep, in a large bed, with mattresses piled high. Secretly, she has place a pea under the mattresses. The Queen and Malnormus are assured of success ... Or are they...?
