Carrie Dollanganger: Witches are in there Mama! Witches and Monsters!

Cathy: [Entering the wedding ceremony] Mother! Do you like my dress? I thought it was appropriate for the occasion.
Mother: [Pretending not to know her own children] Who are you? How did you get here?
Cathy: Have you forgotten us already?
Carrie Dollanganger: Mama?
Bart Winslow: Who are you children?
Carrie Dollanganger: We're the children of the bride!
[the people in the audience gasp]
Mother: [Still acting] Nonsense! You know I don't have any children. Get them out of here. I'll not have my wedding day ruined by a cruel, evil prank!
Cathy: You're the one who's cruel and evil, Mother! You kept us locked up in that attic and you said you'd come for us after your Father died! YOU NEVER CAME!
Chris: You couldn't let anybody find out about us 'cause if you did, you'd be disinherited.
Mother: [Refusing to let the truth out] It's not true! No! What proof do they have?
Chris: [Holding up a dead rat] It died. We've been eating the same cookies that Corey ate.
Mother: Who's Corey?
Chris: He was your Son and my little brother, and you killed him.
Cathy: Just like you tried to kill us. Look at us, Mother! How could you do this to us?
[She takes out a poisoned cookie]
Cathy: Here, Mother! Out Wedding present to you!
[She begins advancing towards her Mother]
Mother: Stop it!
Cathy: Go on! Eat it!
[They make their way on to the balcony]
Cathy: EAT THE COOKIE!
[as they make their way over to the balcony wall, Cathy forces her mother over the balcony, with her Mother hanging by her veil, choking to death]
