" EL DIA DEL RECUERDO "
The night of the Remembrance Day celebration has arrived. All of the Fables
who could pass for human dress in their best attire to attend the
annual ball at the Woodland Building. John the doorman directs the
guests to the 19th floor where a lottery is being held for Prince Charming's lands and title.
King Cole
addresses the assemblage in a grand ballroom. He reminds them of the
harrowing event two centuries ago when the Adversary and his minions
sought to conquer the homelands, driving the Fable community into exile.
In doing so however, he managed to unite all Fables with one simple
objective - survival. Concluding his speech, King Cole proposes a toast
to the Homelands.
As the night wears on, Jack and Bluebeard request an audience with Bigby.
They're both irate for missing the celebration, and Bigby reminds them
that not only are the going to miss this year's Remembrance Day
festival, but the next one-hundred as well. As Jack and Bluebeard plead
their case, Bigby decides to let them enjoy the last remaining hours of
the evening, providing they can keep from killing each other.
Later, Bigby changes into a tuxedo and meets with Snow White on
the ballroom floor. He is a terrible dancer, and Snow White pressures
him about information relating to her sister. Through the course of
conversation, Snow White inadvertently says something that clicks inside
of Bigby's mind. He now knows who the murderer is. He tells Snow to
alert everyone who is interested in learning the truth about the case to
meet atop King Cole's terrace after the lottery drawing.
The lottery is held, and Jack Horner wins Prince Charming's title
after only buying one ticket. He is the first to go up to Cole's
terrace to meet with Bigby (who happens to be taking a dip in King
Cole's pool). One by one, the other guests begin filing into the
terrace. Bigby gets out of the pool and reveals that he knows who the
killer is. He walks to one of the guests and tugs at her hair revealing a
wig. The woman wearing the wig is a disguised, and very much alive Rose Red.

" LA FAMOSA ESCENA DEL SALÓN (SIN SALÓN) "
All of the Remembrance Day guests are standing upon the roof of King Cole's penthouse suite. Bigby Wolf has just revealed that the allegedly murdered Rose Red
is alive and well - and present among the assemblage. Feeling proud of
himself, Bigby goes to great lengths to explain who did what, how they
did it, and how he managed to figure it all out.
His first indicator that something was amiss was when Jack
first staggered into his office out of breath. He felt that Jack
deliberately over-exerted himself to "sell the act" of a worried lover.
When Bigby inspected Rose Red's apartment, he immediately determined
that the room was not really in a state of disarray. In fact, everything
appeared deliberately placed to give the illusion that a violent murder
took place. One of the stranger things he found was evidence of a
padlock on Rose Red's freezer. He later determined that Jack and Rose
preserved samples of her blood over the course of several weeks and
locked them in the freezer for future use. The padlock was necessary so
that none of Rose Red's frequent party guests would ever find out what
they were up to. More clues left at the crime scene included a scattered
pile of blood-spattered CDs. The CDs were removed from the back of the
music cabinet, while the ones in the front were perfectly clean. Bigby
determined that these were the disks that Rose didn't enjoy as much, and
felt that they would make for a convincing prop. Bigby also points out
that Rose Red's stereo was completely unmarked with no blood stains at
all.
Having satisfied the "who" and the "how", Bigby then goes on to
explain the "why". Jack and Rose staged the entire incident in order to
get her out of her contractual obligation to marry Bluebeard. In
addition to the money she received, she was required to marry Bluebeard
exactly one year after the signing of the contract. Another stipulation
of the contract was that the engagement had to remain as secret for up
to one year. Rose used the money to finance Jack's failed dot-com
business interests. When the money ran out, she didn't have the means to
recompense Bluebeard for breaking the contract. The only way they could
get her out of the contract was to fake her death.
After Bigby concludes his story, tempers begin to flare. Snow
White in particular is angered that Bigby knew that Rose was alive the
whole time and didn't tell her. Bigby assures her that he wasn't
positive of all of the facts until recently.
The following day, Snow and Bigby tie up loose ends. Snow White
tells Jack and Rose that they are sentenced to two-hundred hours of
community service and up to ten-thousand dollars in fines. She then
meets with her ex-husband Prince Charming. Charming mistakenly believes
that he is now a millionaire after raffling off his land and titles, but
Snow tells him that he actually receives very little money after
expenses. The majority of the money is going to Bluebeard to pay back
what Rose Red owes him. Snow then invites Bluebeard to her office to
give him the money. She further tells him that the contract is now null
and void because he revealed the nature his engagement to Rose Red
before the deadline.
When all is said and done, Snow White
and Bigby retire to the Woodland Building. They have a conversation on
one of the balconies and Bigby reveals that he is attracted to her. Snow
White reminds him that any relationship between the two of them is
strictly professional. Bigby responds with, "Okay, lady. I got the
message. Loud and clear".
