Descendants 32019

[Everyone cheers Mal as the new Queen of Auradon, but her expression changes to shame.]

Mal:
I can't be Queen of Auradon.

Ben:
Mal...

Mal:
I can't turn my back on the Isle. (To the Aurodonians) We made a decision... to close the barrier forever. And it was my idea. But it's wrong. I've learned that you can't live in fear... because it doesn't actually protect you from anything. You never know where the bad is gonna come from... and you never know where the heroes are gonna come from either. Without Uma and her pirates... Auradon would be gone. And without Hades... my father... (Small gasp from the Aurodonians.) Audrey would be gone... We are all capable of good and bad, no matter which side of the barrier we come from. And that's why I can't be Queen of just Auradon. I have to be Queen of the Isle, too. And it's time that we take the barrier down forever.

Beast:
We can't do that.

Ben:
It's up to us, Dad. I choose to be a King who moves forward. It's time for forgiveness. It's time for new beginnings.
