Mary was a beautiful youngest daughter in a family of four. One day, as her mother was about to go to the market, she asked if her mother could bring her three roses.

The mother came home late with three roses on her hand. As she gave Mary the roses, she asked her to repay by going to the palace and do whatever the person lived there wants in return. Mary agreed and followed her mother to the palace.When she got there, she was astonished by the luxurious and magnificent palace surrounded by the garden of thousands of roses.

The Basilisk suddenly appeared and requested her to take care of him for three hours per day. Three days passed, but the Basilisk never harmed her. However, he had an odd request, that is her cutting of his head. Mary reluctantly agreed and did it, but a new head appeared. She did not hesitated and cut it off for the second time.
Something unexpected happened after that, a handsome, young man appeared, and introduced himself as a prince. Mary didn't think that what she just did break the curse.
After that, the prince proposed and she happily accepted his proposal. They lived happily ever after.
Bonus: This Czech version of Beauty and the Beast is kind of awkward for me, especially the segment in which a Beauty cut off the Beast's head.
