    The poor woman. XD But she’s a bit dumb, huh? I mean, after all the questioning, she should assume that something else might have happened and that Maleen got a necklace instead of just saying “you didn’t give me one”. “I put it away with my maid because I want to go to bed” would have been the much smarter answer. But maybe she just didn’t want to make another trip? XD

      lol indeeeeeeeed. At this point, or even to start with, why is she even arguing with how he said things went? It’s not like she was there. Ahh, Grimm.

    The thing I’m confused about is why she got Maleen to stand in for her in the first place.

    @Francisco, the untrue bride, got Maleen to stand in her, simply because as Grimm put it in the original tale “She was as ugly, as ugly could be.” Or something like that. She feared the Prince would not marry her at the alter, so had Maleen tand in for her, so as to hide her.. in the comics case of visuals.. gigantic unibrow.

↓ Transcript
Panel 1: Emelia is making her way back to Maleen, but you can see she is getting tired from all the running.
Panel 2: Emelia smacks Maleen in the face. Emelia: I'll break your neck!
Panel 3: Emelia trudges back to the prince.
Panel 4: Emelia recites the answer. Emelia: I... I told the church door this: 'Church door, please don't break or chide, for I'll gladly admit I'm not his true bride.'
Panel 5: The prince looks surprised. Orland: Where is the necklace that I gave you at the church door? Emelia: What kind of necklace? You didn't give me a necklace.
Panel 6: Orland looks suspicious. Orland: I myself put it around your neck and fastened the clasp as well. If you don't know this, then you're not my true bride.
Panel 7: Orland reaches for Emelia's veil. Emelia looks nervous.
