Charlotte: Goodness gracious! This is so much to absorb. Let me see if I got this right. If I kiss you before midnight, you and Tiana will turn human again, and then we gonna get ourselves married and live happily ever after! The end!
Prince Naveen: Yeah, more or less. But remember, you must give Tiana all the money she requires for her restaurant. Because

Prince Naveen: She is my Evangeline.
Charlotte: Anything you want, sugar.
[applies lipstick]
Charlotte: Pucker up, buttercup!
Tiana: [Naveen half-heartedly puckers his lips] Wait!
Prince Naveen: Tiana?

Charlotte: Tiana?
Tiana: Don't do this.
Prince Naveen: I have to do this and we are running out of time!
Prince Naveen: I won't let you!
Prince Naveen: It's the only way to get you your dream!
Tiana: My dream? My dream wouldn't be complete... without you in it.

Tiana: I love you, Naveen.
Prince Naveen: Warts and all?
Tiana: Warts and all.
Charlotte: [sniffs] All my life, I read about true love and fairytales, and... Tia, you found it! I'll kiss him! For you, honey! No marriage required.

Charlotte: Oh my word! M-maybe that ol' clock's a little fast!
[kisses Naveen]
Charlotte: Oh!
[kisses him a few more times in panic and Naveen shrugs]
Charlotte: Oh, I'm so sorry!
