They return to the Queen’s Castle and speak to a Card Soldier
Card Soldier: Are you ready to present evidence before the
queen?
Sora: Yes.
Card Soldier: Very well. Counsel, step up to the podium.
Sora stands at the defendant’s table, while Donald and Goofy are in a separate
box
Queen of Hearts: Now, show me what you have found.
Sora presents their four items of evidence
Queen of Hearts: Well, that’s certainly a lot of evidence, but I’m
still not impressed. Cards! Bring forth my evidence!
The cards present the queen’s box of evidence and the five boxes are shuffled around
to Sora’s confusion
Queen of Hearts: Hmm, checking all five would only be a waste of
time. All right, then. Choose the one you wish to present. I’ll decide who’s guilty
based on that evidence.
Sora: What? After all the trouble of collecting it?
Queen of Hearts (yelling): You dare object? Then you will lose your
head! Now, choose! One box!
Sora chooses one of the boxes
Queen of Hearts: Are you certain? No second chances!
Sora: I’m sure.
Queen of Hearts: Now we shall see who the real culprit is.
Inside the box is a Soldier Heartless
Queen of Hearts: What in the world was that?
Sora: There’s your evidence. Alice is innocent.
Queen of Hearts: Rrrrrrrgh... Silence! I’m the law here!
She pounds on the bench
Queen of Hearts: Article 29: Anyone who defies the queen is
guilty!
Donald (jumping up and down): That’s crazy!
Queen of Hearts (shouting): Seize them at once!
The podiums and hedges disappear and a large crank tower rises from the floor. The Ten
of Spades runs over to the tower’s gear and turns it, raising Alice’s cage at the bench.
The queen lifts her fan and the cards leap into battle
Queen of Hearts: Cards! If they touch the tower, you lose your
heads!
They begin attacking the red and black Card Soldiers who come at them with axes. After
knocking a couple out, they flutter to the ground unconscious
Queen of Hearts: Get them, you fools! Quit joking around!
Sora runs up to the Queen of Hearts, who tries to fight back with magic from her fan.
Sora dodges this and knocks her over, exposing her heart- patterned bloomers. At this
point, the Card Soldiers freeze on the spot for fear of their queen. Sora runs back over
and starts slamming the Keyblade into the crank tower, with each strike lowering Alice’s
cage
Queen of Hearts (angrily): Why, you!
Eventually, the tower starts to crack and shatters to pieces. The flamingo head
holding up Alice’s cage drops to the ground and the curtain pulls back. Sora runs
forward as the Queen of Hearts peers over the bench to see an empty cage
Donald: She must’ve gotten kidnapped while we were fighting.
Queen of Hearts (slamming her fist): You fools!
The cards stand at attention
Queen of Hearts: Find the one who’s behind this! I don’t care
how!
The Card Soldiers run in various directions at the queen’s orders.
