Red DeliciousStartled, Snow White gasps. Who could be at the door? Walking over, she opens the door and peers out. Standing there hunched over is an old woman. She has long grey hair and a lazy eye. She has long black coat on that drags on the floor.
“An apple for the pretty lady?” cracks the old woman.
“Oh, I’m afraid I don’t have any money,” explains Snow White.
“It is a gift.”
The old woman pushes the apple into Snow White’s hands.
“Take a bight. It is good.”
Suspicious, Snow White looks the apple over. What harm could an apple have?
“Don’t eat that apple!”
“Whaaaa,” exclaims a confused Snow White.
Out of the shadows comes Jessie. He is dressed, once again, in all black. His dark hair is like a veil over his striking green eyes. He looks dangerous.
“That apple is poisoned,” says Jessie.
“How could you say that? This nice old woman was just here in the middle of the forest….,” Snow White stops stunned.
Why was there and old woman in the middle of the forest and why would she give her a gift? Realizing what is happening, Snow White lets out a squeal. This has to be Stepmother using her magic! Why is she here?
