Cartoon Synopsis:

Betty Boop plays Cinderella in this retelling of the classic tale. Cinderella lives with her mean stepsisters, who treat her miserably. They refuse to allow her to attend the prince's ball. Cinderella cries until her fairy Godmother tells the girl to get a pumpkin, some mice and two lizards together. With a wave of her wand, these items turn into a coach, a footman, doorman and horses. Cinderella's rags turn into a resplendent white evening gown complete with glass slippers. The fairy Godmother warns Cinderella to be home by midnight or the magic will end and she will be in rags once more.

At the ball, Cinderella's appearance enchants everyone, especially the prince. He is smitten with this lovely young woman. They both dance until the clock strikes 12, when Cinderella runs from the Palace. In her haste, she leaves one of her glass slippers behind. The Prince searches his kingdom for the woman the slipper fits. All the girls in the realm try on the glass slipper, to no avail. Cinderella is given a chance, and it fits. She becomes the Prince's bride, much to the displeasure of the two stepsisters. The two continue to argue at the gates of the Prince's Palace as the final credits roll.
