Scene 1: Monsters are at school and the recess bell rings. Celia, Sulli and Boo arrive to the school patio and start talking.
Celia: Wow guys! What a day! I´m so tired! So Sulli, What are you going to do with Boo? It´s about time she returns home with her parents. You can´t have her hidden here all school year.
Sulli: Shhh! I know! Right now Mike is looking for the door that will take us back to her house. It´s going to be hard to say good bye (with a sad look)!
Boo: Noooo Kitty! I don´t want to go home until we find out who´s the monster hidden in my closet. Please don´t let me go, I´m scared.
Mike arrives to the patio running to the rest of the group.
Mike: (all exited) Hey guys! I found it! It was just where I thought, hidden in the highest floor of the school. I think that´s the old lab, I found the way to open the locks. Let´s go! There´s no time!
Celia: Oh Cuchurrumin, I knew you´ll do it! You´re so smart, and funny, and brilliant, and so intelligent, and …
Sulli: (interrupting Celia) Ok ok! We have to go right now! Roz is on call, she´s going to be patrolling the hallways in exactly 20 seconds. Let´s go!
Students sneak around in the stage until they get to the door (music of the pink panther sounds).
Mike: We did it guys! Now we have to press the correct button, otherwise it will take us to other worlds, and it will be impossible to come back (with worryness in his face).
Boo: Oh noo! This is so scary! I will never come back home.
Suddenly there´s a loud noise. Roz and Randall appear in the scene. 
Roz: Mike Wazowski! Take you hands out of that door right now. And get ready to visit Mrs. Gerardino´s office at this moment. Hehehehe (with a smirk in her face) This is going to be so fun! Besides, you didn´t do your homework last night, you´re so grounded!
Randall: Hello guys! (with a smirk in his face and taking Mike by an arm) Did you think you can go to any adventure without me? Did you think I wouldn´t find out?
Celia: Randall Boggs! Let go my Cuchurrumin!
Meanwhile Sulli gets the door to turn on (sound of a machine turning on). Mike pushes Randall and Roz, and the monsters all go through the door (there´s a loud noise meaning they traveled to another place).

Scene 2: At the UP world. Mr  and Msr. Fredericksen are going to sit on their chairs. Very slowly they walk together talking about past memories).
Mrs. Fredericksen (Ellie): Ohh my dear love, I´m so glad you could lift this house in the clouds, we can finally rest out here!
Mr. Fredericksen (Carl): Yes my dear Ellie, this is heaven. Nobody to bother us, no one selling silly things, no mortgage, this is wonderful!
Finally getting to sit. The bell rings, but Mr. Fredericksen doesn’t listen.
Mrs. Fredericksen: Carl? Someone´s at the door, how come somebody could be at the door up here? Didn´t you say we would finally be in peace?
Mr. Fredericksen: I know, I know dear, I just don´t understand! That must be the wind, don´t worry!
The doorbell rings again.
Mr. Fredericksen: All right, all right! I will see what´s going on! (He slowly stands up and go to check up on the door).  Who is this? (all grumpy)
Russel: Excuse me sir! (all scared) Can I come in?
Mrs. Fredericksen: Oh dear lord! Where did you come from? Who are you?
Russell: Hello! My name is Russell, Wilderness Explorer in tribe 54. Are you in in need of assistance today sir?
Mr. Fredericksen: Grrr! What kind of assistance?
Russell: Well sir, I could help you cross your street, or your yard, or your porch, or….
Mr. Fredericksen: Don´t you see we don´t have any yard, or street, or nothing outside?
Russell: I noticed sir (all scared) I´ve been attached to your front door for two days in a road, but I am a boy scout and it´s my duty to assist you.
Mr. Fredericksen: Well we don´t need any assistance. You can leave. (he opens the door and a loud scary wind noise is heard)
Mrs. Fredericksen: Oh Carl, don´t be so rude. Russell come with me! I have some recently baked cookie and warm milk for you.
Mr. Fredericksen comes back to sit again and the doorbell rings again.
Mr. Fredericksen: Oh really? I can´t believe this! It has to be the wind this time. (he stands up again with trouble and opens the door) What now? (Yelling).
Dug: Hi Carl!  
Mr. Fredericksen: What? You? What are you doing in here? I left you at that dog shelter; they were supposed to put you at sleep. What´s wrong with these people?
Dug: I was hiding under your porch because I love you.
Mr. Fredericksen: But I don´t love you.
Dug: Come on! I am a talking dog, you can need me here. Besides, I really love you!
Mr. Fredericksen: For what?
Dug: I don´t know! you´re the human, to talk to me maybe? Dahh. And besides, I´m a good tracker! I can howl to scare monsters aooooooohhhhh I can lick your face because I love you. (approaching to lick him)
Mr. Fredericksen: Aghhhh! This is nonsense! There´s nothing to track in the skies, there are no monsters here.
Doorbell rings again.Mr. Fredericksswearing opens the door. 
Mr. Fredericksen: WHAT KNOW (all the monsters go in)?
Dug: See? I told you there where monsters aooooooohhhhhh. Remember that I love you.
All the monsters go in running and screaming. Randall and Roz are chasing them. A music of a chase sounds.
Roz: I will catch you Mike Wazowsky! Even if this is the last thing I do! And trust me you will stay all recess doing homework in Lilina´s office.
Randall: All of You will regret letting me aside your plans! Do you think I was dumb? I even called the police and they will catch you in the next world!
Boo: I am too young to go to prison nooo!!!
They all leave the scene running. The dog barks, and the old man goes behind with his cane, he can barely walk and he is groaning. Suddenly there´s that noise of the magic door telling the monsters went through it.

Scene 3: At the TOY STORY world. All toys are arrive and they sit on the floor with sad faces. A sad music plays and they start to lament.
Bear: Hahahahaha you will all remain in this dungeon until I say so. You´re my prisoners now and you´ll do as I say hahahahah
Jessie: Don´t worry Bullseye, we´re going get out of here very soon.
Music of jail plays.
Mr. Potato Head: Get prepared it´s time to escape!
Jessie: (Jessie starts crying) Oh noo we´re not going to see Andy again! We´re going to die here alone! Why is life so cruel??
Buzz: Who are you? and You, red-haired girl! Why are you so dramatic?
Rex: Buzz what´s up with ¨you¨? Don´t you recognize us? Maybe that horrible bear pressed that reset button again. Buzz try to remember! that ¨Lots-of-huggings¨ bear caught us in this prison for toys.
Buzz: From which galaxy are you? Tell me or you´ll die with my super powerful laser. I can disintegrate you in seconds. Speak now or you will regret it!
Woody: This is crazy, we´re losing too much time in here, Andy is going to college and he doesn´t even know we are trapped in this dungeon. I think we have to focus on our plan to escape instead of being fighting to each other.
Mr.Potato Head: Woody is right you guys! There has to be a way out of here, a loose door or something. I am going to take a look around (he stands up and approaches to the door to check it out. Buzz turns around and catches him)
Buzz: You´re not going anywhere! You traitor! You must be a spy of Emperor Zurg and I am Buzz Lightyear of Star Command and I will capture you!
Jessie: Buzz, you´re crazy! Are you on his side now? Rex, Woody help me fix him (Woody and Jessie catch Buzz until Rex tries to fix him).
Rex: How do I fix him? There are too many buttons in here, I don´t know how to read, I´m just a toy.
Woody: Your finger! Press the red button for 20 seconds. Hurry up he´s trying to escape!
Rex: Okay okay! Let me try. What if it doesn´t work?!
Jessie: just do it! Rex puts his fingers and starts counting.
Rex: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,….
Buzz turns off and on again. Spanish music starts sounding. Buzz starts dancing. Suddenly he stops and thinks.
Buzz: Me he despertado del hipersueño en una galaxia extraña con gente desconocida (Buzz looks at Woody. Meanwhile, Mr. Potato Head looks for a way out).
Hola tio. Amigo o enemigo? (Buzz points at Woody with his laser).
Woddy: Yes, Yes amigos, amigos, We´re all friends, we are trapped in a dungeon trying to escape, and you are helping us AMIGO.
Woody raises his hands, scared. Buzz kisses Woddy in the cheek, and claps on his ckeeks twice. Woody has a weird face. Buzz looks at him.
Buzz: Hmm, Seguro me he estrellado y se me ha borrado la memoria.
Jessie: Good job Rex… now he´s Spanish.
Rex: I´m so sorry. I told you, I don´t even know how to read in English. Now I have to learn Spanish to fix Buzz buahhhh.
Bear is back to the scene bringing the Monsters.
Bear: Well well well, It looks you got lucky today and you won´t die here alone as you said Jessie hahaha look what I found, a bunch of weird fluffy toys running out there. Get in here you scoundrels, you have the right to stay quiet, everything you say will be used against you. Hahahahahah I am so mean! Hehehehe (he leaves).
Woody: Who are you guys?
Celia: It´s a long story, we have been traveling through different movies trying to take this kid home.
Jessie: Ohh she´s so cute! Where does she live? Maybe Andy can help! He knows everyone in the neighborhood.
Mike: I don´t think so, we need to go through a magic door to get to her house.
Rex: Magic door? There isn´t any magic in this story, everything is pretty normal around here.
Boo: Actually, It´s no normal for toys to speak or kidnap other toys.  
Sulli: You guys! there´s no time to discuss about this, we need to get out of here before Roz and Randall find us again!
Mr. Potato Head: Hey Guys I did it! I found the way to unlocke the doors It´s time to leave! Let´s go!
Woody: Wait! We have to fix Buzz!
Mr. Potato Head:  there is no time to fix him, let´s go!
Buzz starts dancing with Rex. And the music turns on again.
Rex: I´m scared!

Scene 4: At CINDERELLA´s world. Cinderella is sitting in a corner with her phone.
Drizela: (Screaming) Cinderella, what are you doing? You’re supposed to be cleaning.
Cinderella: Yeah, yeah, I’ll clean when monsters exist. Oh wait, they already exist, I’m just talking to one of them right now. So maybe I clean when Fairy Godmothers exist hahahah.
Anastasia: Cinderella, I’m hungry!! Where’s my breakfast?
Cinderella: Listen, go to the kitchen, search for a box that says CEREAL, then open the fridge and look for a bottle that says MILK. Mix it in a bowl and eat it!
Anastasia: Cinderella you can’t talk to me like that!
Drizela: I don´t get it! Aren´t we the mean ones in this story?
Cinderella: I’m done with you. It looks I´m not your servant anymore! This is the twenty first century now. Get over it!
Cinderella runs to the forest until she crashes into a  Monster. She gets scared and confused.
Cinderella: Whoaaa!! Who are you?
Celia: We’re monsters! Hello nice to meet you! This is my Cuchurrumin, Sulli and Boo (Monsters say hi!)
Cinderella: Why are you here?
Mike: Yeah (all tired for being running) we’re searching for a door that blah, blah, whatever, my brain already dried.
Boo: They’re trying to catch us! Please help us!
Cinderella: I must be crazy, now I’m talking to monsters, what’s next, a magic fairy godmother (A fairy godmother appears. Magic dust sounds).
Fairy Godmother: Did you call me my dear? I´m here! Bibidibabidibum!
Cinderella: What do you all want from me? I said I´m not working for those crazy girls anymore.
Fairy Godmother: They’re supposed to scare you, but I’m here to help you! We have a dance to attend my dear, and trust me, you´re not dressed properly. We have a lot of work to do! Fairy takes an invitation out of her pocket and hands it to Cinderella.
This is the invitation to a dance that will change your life.
Sulli: (Whispering to the monsters) Guys! This is exactly what we need! Fairy Godmother can you help us?
Fairy Godmother: I only have to get this girl to her dance, she´s going to meet the love of her life! Then I can help you (They all say ok!).
Good job! Now we are going to need a carriage, two genets hmmmm oh and also a escort (Magic dusts sounds again). Let´s go, let´s go! (they all leave the stage).
The prince enters to the scene; He lays down with the headphones listening to music. A loud music plays and the courtier enters in the scene.  
Courtier: My prince, my prince, I’ve found a lady for you.
Prince: (The prince can´t listen to the courtier, he takes off the headphones) What? What did you say?
Courtier: My lord I said that I finally found a lady to join you at the dance tonight.
Prince: I’m pretty sure I can find one by myself. I don’t need your help.
Courtier: Yes, yes I know, but your father said… mmmm.   Well, but she’s one of the most beautiful girls in the town.
Prince: Yeah, yeah, I don´t want to hear you. Right now I am listening to my favorite band.
Courtier: oh! My prince! Look at the time! People are going to arrive soon! You have to get ready as fast as possible. 
Prince: Auggg! I hate these dances! And I am pretty sure I don´t want to get marry yet. (Prince and Gus get out of the scene).
The dance begins with music and the two stepsisters enter the scene all dressed up for the party dance.
Anastasia: Ohhhh this castle is so beautiful! I really, really want to live here.
Drizela: Don´t get too excited about it. The one marrying the prince is me.
Anastasia: Woww!! Look at that girl! She´s so beautiful, I love the dress! I hate her!
Drizela: Look at the prince! It seems like he´s under a spell or something. My face is turning green of envy Urggghhhh!!
Prince and courtier enter the ballroom through a different door and they talk.
Prince: Wow!!Dude! This is so cool! You were right! Look at all these chicks! Wow that´s the one for me? She´s impressive!!!
Courtier: I told you my lord! I worked very hard to find her. I had to blackmail one or two fairy godmothers, but I found her, just as your father requested.
Cinderella enters the ballroom and the prince approaches her and tells her to dance.
Prince: Hey! How you doin´? It looks like I finally found my half orange.  (song: finally found you, Enrique Iglesias) So, do you want to dance or what?.
Cinderella: I guess! The clock bell rings and C. realizes she has to leave).
Cinderella: Oh my god! It´s midnight already! I´m sorry honey, but I have to take off. It was your pleasure dancing with me.
Prince: Whaaaaaaaattt!! But I finally found you.
Cinderella leaves running, she drops a shoe, and then the monsters leave running after her. The Prince picks up the shoe and he leaves the scene
               
Scene 5: Princesses are going to meet at the mall. Pocahontas arrives first and she starts calling the others.

Pocahontas: Hi Aurora, I’m at the mall. Where are you? Yeah I supposed you were taking a nap, that´s why I called. Will you come? Ok I´ll wait for you at Starbucks. Bye! (to herself) Okay, okay, so where is Starbucks in this mall? (To the magic mirror) Oh here´s an information mirror. Mirror? Can you tell me where S. is? And.. Who is the most beautiful girl in the world?  
Mirror: One question at a time my dear princess. Of course you´re the most beautiful one among all the princesses in the world. You can find S. is in the second floor, pass the first corner to the left princess. Try tasting the new Caramel Hot Chocolate!
Pocahontas: I knew it! Don´t tell the others okay? Oh and thank you so much for the information. Good bye! (She leaves).
Snow White: (She arrives at the mall and she is leaving a vn) Ladies I am here at the mall and I don´t see any of you, where are you? I am starting to lose my temper in here. Bahh these girls are always late! Hmm! this information mirror must be new (she turns without seen by anyone to the mirror and asks) Mirror, dear mirror, I would like to know who in this whole world is the most beautiful girl?
Mirror: Hello my princess, I can help you with that question, of course you are the most beautiful one among all the princesses in the world!!!
Snow White: Duh! That was obvious. Oh by the way have you seen my friends?
Mirror: I have, they are meeting at S. But let me tell you they are not as beautiful as you! Especially with that outfit you´re wearing, which by the way you can buy 10% off at Macy´s, only today! Oh
Snow White: Oh I know where it is! I will pass by the poisoned apple store on my way to the coffee shop. Thank you!
Jazmine: (Some minutes later she arrives at the scene) Snow White is such a complainer, she´s so annoying! Now, let´s see where that stupid S. is. Oh there is an information mirror, good! Mirror, do me a favor! Where in heavens is S.? Oh and I know this is a cliché, but who do you think is the most beautiful girl in the world? Don´t you dare saying it´s SW.
Mirror: My princess, I would love to say that Snow White is the most beautiful princess I have ever seen, but I have to say that your beauty goes beyond! It goes beyond just as the new Evolution Magic Carpet available only at Ikea. Buy it now!
Jazmine: Hmm! If you say so.. You must be one of those chauvinist mirrors who thinks we women are judged by our beauty, but let me tell you this mirror, we women are equal to men, we can run our palaces, pay rents and taxes and still, we are all equally beautiful no matter what you say. And one last thing, I can find that coffee shop by myself if I want to. I have Siri for that! Good bye! (Mirror stays all astonished and perplex).
Aurora arrives at last and she sits all tired besides the mirror.
Aurora: (yawning) Hmmm what was I looking for again? I don´t remember, I´m so tired. I think I will rest a sec and then continue (She lays on the bench and starts snoring).
All the other three girls arrive to Aurora´s and wake her up.
Pocahontas: Aurora! What happened? Where were you? We´ve been waiting two hours in that coffee shop. You never showed up.
Aurora: What? Where am I? Oh lord! I´m so sorry girls, I don´t know what´s wrong with me, I fall asleep everywhere. I think I have to start doing yoga or something, maybe I can take more coffee. I even changed my mattress, but there´s definitely something that won´t let me rest. Maybe this is like an eternal yet lag.   
Snow White: You are seriously damaged! Come on, it´s time to leave!
Aurora: I know, I know! I promise it won´t happen again. Wait! Let me check my hairstyle in this mirror for a second (she starts checking out her look and realizes that’s a magic mirror) Oh Mirror, how do I look? Am I the most beautiful of all the princesses or what?
Mirror: Yes my dear, of course you are the most beautiful one among all the princesses over this world!!! We are waiting for you at ¨We Are All Princess Beauty Salon¨ free extensions only during summer season! (The others hear and dramatically turn to the mirror at the same time).
Jazmine: I knew it! You liar! You had to be a male to lie like this!
Pocahontas: I can´t believe it! You said the same thing to me a moment ago!
Snow White: I had enough of you silly mirror!
Aurora: Let´s go girls! This is just an advertising mirror, I don´t think he´s even magical.  
They all turn around and leave. Behind them monsters appear running in the mall.
Celia: (shouting) Everyone wait! Here´s a magic mirror giving information, I´m sure he can help us.
Boo: Yesss!! Finally some good news!
Mike: Great ask him where the door is.
Sulli: Hi mirror, look we are looking for a magic door that will take us back to this baby girl´s house, can you help us find it?
Mirror: Yes! Of course you are the most beautiful princess in the world! New Doors offered at Home Depot! All colors available now! (they all look confused).
Sulli: Excellent!
Celia: This is crazy!
Boo: Look! Radall and Roz are coming!
Mike: Not again! Let´s go! I think I know where to find it!
Roz and Randall come running.  
Randall: These monsters are really fast! I don´t think we can catch them.
Roz: I am not giving up! Move it Randall!
Monsters finally get to Boo´s room all tired.
Celia: Wow I can´t believe we made it, after all that rush, and all those worlds.
Mike: I know, but it´s time to say good bye now. We have to go back to school.
Sulli: Yeah, High school is waiting for us. I will really miss you Boo! (they all hug).
Boo: Kitty! I will miss you too! Don´t go! Please, please stay!
Sulli: Good bye Boo! (They hug and the monsters go).
Boo sits on her bed and starts crying.
Boo: I can´t believe they´re gone forever, after all the fun we had! No way I will let them go! (she opens the doors again and everybody screams Surprise! Music begins and all actors and actresses get in dancing and say good bye to the audience).
