His new wife Lady Tremaine, who already has two daughters from her previous marriage, reveals her cold and cruel nature after the aristocrat dies. Cinderella's stepmother and stepsisters are jealous of her beauty and charm. They force her to work as a maid.

Meanwhile, the King arranges a ball in the hope of finding a suitable wife for Prince Charming. Every eligible woman in the kingdom is invited to attend. Cinderella asks her stepmother if she can attend the ball, but is instead given extra chores around the house.
