It tells all about this totally excellent holiday that encourages everyone to follow their true hearts desire.
66
But it hasn't been spell-a-brated in years.
67
And never will be again.
68
That holiday is dangerous. But, but...
69
Some students might see it as a sign to break from their destinies.

Maybe True Hearts Day is...

Yes, sir.

A holiday that used to be spell-a-rated in the fairy tale world that encourages us to follow our true hearts desire, But headmaster Grimm doesn't want anyone to know about it
81
But you think we should celebrate it anyway and throw a secret underground true hearts day dance?
82
Why didn't you just say that?
83
Cuz Headmaster Grimm told me not to say anything Secret dance?
84
What if Grimm catches us?
85
He won't come on.
86
It'll be happily ever awesome.

96
Why do you even care I care because it's not fair Ashlyn is breaking the royal rules with her secret romance,
97
but she still gets a happily ever after and I don't!
98
So you got a plan?
99
I mean, it's not like we're just gonna find them in some romantic moment.
100
Say tea?
101
Ah, curses.
102
Hey Duchess, Sparrow, we didn't see you.
103
What's going on?
104
You two are totally busted!
105
Ashlyn, Hunter, I think the real question is what are you two doing here?
106
Having a secret romantic rendezvous?
107
We gotta find a better place to picnic.
108
Please, you two can't tell anyone Hunter and I are secretly dating.
109
Um, yeah, wow, well, I'm gonna.
110
Ash, this is gonna knock you down the royal rankings.
111
But don't worry, I'll take your place.
112
And you're happily ever after.
113
Bummer, Princess to be.
114
Stop that!
115
Stop that!
116
Now my love tale friends, this is the part of the mirror cast where I try to solve your romantic problems.
117
So, fragile in Fairyland, what's in your heart?
118
Um, well, I...
119
Dex?
120

121

122
Raven Queen?
123
You have a crush on Raven Queen?
124
I mean Rachel Rachel.
125
Yeah, I like a girl named Rachel, okay Rachel, so you like her.
126
What's the problem?
127
Whenever I'm around her I get really tongue-tied.
128
Oh, okay Look how about putting down your feelings on parchment?
129
That is a great idea.
130
I'll write her a love poem Thanks Cupid you're the best bye no problem It's Apple White!
131

132
Aren't you just totally excited?
133

134
Love, finding our predetermined princes.
135
Um, sure, yeah.
136
Oh, sweetie, what's wrong?
137
You can tell me.
138
I mean, we are friends forever after.
139

140

141
Is it boy trouble?
142
Oh wow, hey, I am thirsty!

169

170

187
Gunter Gunsman.
188

Um, for our play.
201
And what exactly is the name of this play?
202
It's a...
203
It's called the play that almost was and then wasn't but then was
204
Very well I don't know Duchess it is a bomb spell,
205
but Ash and Hunter are my friends If you don't report on it someone else will No!
206
They can't own it!
207
Now I'll never get my happily ever after!
208
Oh!
209
Hey, Duchess!
210
Ashlyn?
211
You and Hunter are dating?
212
But you're a royal, and he's a rebel!
213
Tony Aquano!
214
A royal dating a rebel?
215
That's just not how the tale is told.
216
She followed her true heart, which is kind of what True Heart's day is all about.
217
So, fellow fairy tales, Blondilocks here to give you reaction to the royally rebellious romance.
218
I think it's Hexcellent.
219
Ashlyn and Hunter decided to rewrite their destinies.
220
What's wrong with that?
221
Oh!
222
I feel for them.
223
I mean, keeping secrets is hard.
224
A royal and a rebel?
225
They're from two different worlds.
226
I am trying to do an interview here.
227
I'm worried about Ashlyn and Hunter.
228
If they don't follow their destinies, their books could close forever.
229
Remember our quiz tomorrow on tiara size and future neck problems.
230
Apple, we have to talk.
231
Ash, this is hard for me.
232
Which is a first because I usually handle everything so very well.
233
I know.
234
I'm just so surprised you didn't trust me enough to tell me.
235
I didn't think you'd understand.
236
I guess I don't.
237
It just doesn't make sense to me.
238
I don't want to see anything bad happen to someone I care so much about.
239
And so you're telling me all these heart-shaped cakes are for your play Yeah,
240
the play you know it therefore that really funny scene where a briar throws them at hopper Excuse me.
241
Oh, yeah, it's such a funny thing.
242
I just wind up Very well
243
Hi Ashlyn.
244
Duchess!
245
What do you want?
246
What do I want?
247
My own happily ever after of course!
248
And now that everyone knows that you're dating a rebel...
249
It looks like there's one available.
250
No glass slipper for you!
251
Hmph, so you're happy about Hunter and I dating while my best friends aren't?
252
Maybe I did make a mistake.
253
What?
254
No!
255
You're totally doing the right thing.
256
Follow your heart and all that sappy stuff.
257
Sorry, I'm saving this for Ashlyn.
258
Hey, Ashlyn!
259
Hunter, we need to talk.
260
Uh, Ashlyn?
261
I just...
262
I thought this would be a good thing, showing everyone we were dating.
263
I thought it would take the pressure off, but now.. everything is worse.
264
What are you saying?
265
My friends are upset.
266
I don't know what's going to happen to our stories.
267
Yeah, but...
268
Hunter, I don't want anything bad to happen to us. To you.
269
I think...
270
I think we should break up.
271
I'm sorry.
272
They told you everything was set in stone You're a trial, you're a real more than one together However you go,
273
ever after high And so as the sun set on Ever After High
274
The students were getting fairest for the big dance.
275
Daddy!
276
Oh!
277
Sparrow, I need you to help me ruin the True Hearts dance tonight.
278
What?
279
Why?
280
Briar is planning it.
281
And if I can get her in trouble with Headmaster Grimm, then there'll be a new opening in the Royal Ranks.
282
You know what?
283
I am done with you.
284
What's ruffled your feathers?
285
I, Sparrow Hood, the rockingest, handsomest guy in this school, can't find out where the dance is!
286
No one will tell me, cause I'm friends with you.
287
Well, someone around here must know something.
288
You really think anyone's gonna tell you the truth?
289
There's one person at this school who's cursed to me.
290
I'm sorry.
291
Raven, over here!
292
Wow, Briar.
293
You really know how to throw the most excellent parties.
294
I had some help.
295
I, uh...
296
Appreciate your kind kudos, fair maiden.
297
Hey, guys!
298
Who's DJing tonight?
299
We got the daughter of the Pipe Piper!
300
Melody Piper?
301
What up, Ever After?
302
Ready for me to drop some true hearts tunes?
303
Yay!
304
Then follow me!
305
This next chapter day saw a 30% rise in our semi-magical creature attendance rates.
306
Which, when you compare that to...
307
Excuse me.
308
That's a swan!
309
I'm addressing the entire magical community on the mirror net at this very moment!
310
I know.
311
And I'm so sorry to disturb you, but there's something I just thought you had to know about. Which is?
312
I hate to tell on my friends, but some students are having a secret True Hearts Day dance.
313
Show me where.
314
So, 300 autographs later, my quilt finally gives out.
315
But there are a hundred more girls in mine.
316
Daring, Daring, can we talk for a minute?
317
Of course, yes.
318
I wanted to thank you for that poem you left on my locker.
319
Um, I never wrote you a poem.
320
You didn't?
321
But it says right here, D Charming.
322
Oh!
323
Dexter!
324
Hi, Dex!
325
So, not exactly a happy True Hearts Day, huh?
326
Why does my brother always get the girl?
327
It's not fair.
328
Maybe you should stop thinking so much about your brother.
329
And, um, concentrate on someone else?
330
Uh, who?
331
You.
332
You spend so much time comparing yourself to Derry, you forget you're great.
333
Just the way you are.
334
Really?
335
Cross my heart.
336
Thanks, Cupid.
337
It was Dexter!
338
Can you believe it?
339
And Dex, he's so sweet and cute.
340
And I'm gonna tell him that I...
341
I'm too late. Where is this party?
342
Not much further.
343
Give it up for Melody Piper!
344
Now, since True Hearts Day hasn't been spell-a-brated in such a long time, I wanted to tell everyone what it's all about.
345
Once upon a time, there grew a very special tree The Heart Tree
346
And even if the winter was harsh
347
and the other trees failed to bloom The Heart Tree blossomed no matter what And so,
348
our fairy tale ancestors gave the blossoms to each other on True Hearts Day To show
349
that even though it's not always easy True love will always find a way And so,
350
to encourage all of us to follow our true heart
351
Make sure to give yours to someone special to you Can I?
352
Hunter, when I listen to my true heart It tells me that you're my Prince Charming.
353
Aww.
354
But how can you be a royal and date Hunter?
355
I don't know.
356
But if writing our own happily ever after means I can't be a royal, then call me Ashlyn Ella the Rebel.
357
Yeah!
358
I'd like to give this to you, Hunter.
359
If you'll have it. Of course.
360
Yeah!
361
Yeah!
362
Yeah!
363
Yeah!
364
Apple!
365
I'm so sorry.
366
I just had to do what...
367
Why are you giving this to me?
368
I might be worried about you, and I might think you're doing the wrong thing, but I want you to know that we'll always be friends, no matter what.
369
That's what's in my true heart.
370
Thanks, Apple.
371
You're the best.
372
I know.
373
This is literally the best day ever.
374
I'm gonna do it.
375
I'm gonna do it.
376
Don't be a worry-flurry.
377
Let's party!
378
Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine!
379
Hey, Cupid.
380
You seen Cedar?
381
I can't find her anywhere.
382
Oh, Cedar had something royally important to do tonight.
383
There it is.
384
Dudes trying
385
to practice here miss one Detention!
386
What?
387
Where are they?
388
You totally got what you deserved, yeah!
389
You told Cedar the wrong spot, because you knew Duchess would try to get it out of her.
390
Yep!
391
Then she left me a note back in the dorm, telling me the real party was here.
392
Now that is a happy ending.
393
I have to say, my true heart agrees.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
