  • This exchange:
    Genevieve: There's one thing Rowena doesn't have; the power of twelve.
    Derek: (facepalms)
  • Randolph's complete bewilderment over his daughters being excited about their ballet shoes.
  • Genevieve's sisters teasing her over her obvious crush on Derek.
    Edeline: Genevieve, is it the shoes you like?
    Fallon: Or the cobbler who made them?
    (the older sisters giggle)
    Genevieve: What are you talking about?
    Fallon: Derek is so cute!
    Genevieve: (hesitating) If you say so, Fallon...
    Ashlyn: Maybe the problem is he's not a prince.
    Genevieve: I don't care if he's a prince, a king , or an emperor! The truth is...
    Fallon: You are head over heels!
    Genevieve: Don't be ridiculous! Besides, he never notices me. If I were paying attention, which I'm not!
    Ashlyn: (in a sing-song tone) Genevieve's got it bad!
  • Rowena constantly mixing up the princesses' names due to forcing them to dress the same.
    Rowena: Blair, look alive!
    Fallon: I'm Fallon.
    Rowena: Whatever... (flutters her fan) Now flutter them like this. Coy, feminine.
    (Camera pans to Courtney, waving her fan intensely)
    Rowena: Lacey! You're creating a tornado!
    Courtney: (annoyed) I'm Courtney.
    Rowena: And I'm getting impatient!
  • While dancing in the magical world, Edeline takes a moment to poke fun at Rowena and her constant need for perfection.
    Edeline: (flutters a fan haughtily) Who am I?
    Fallon: (chuckles) The Duchess of Doom?
    Edeline: You mean the Duchess of Don't. "Don't do this! Don't do that! Don't, don't, don't!"
  • The whole attempt of Rowena's guards and accomplices trying to infiltrate the castle, with the princesses using several different methods to stop them.
    • Blair and Courtney suspend a rope to knock the knight off his horse. Then, Blair hops on his horse to quickly find a doctor for their father. Cue the knight chasing after them.
    • With the help of Genevieve, Delia and Edeline use croquet balls to pelt two guards, who then tumble down the stairs, and they then distract the other two.
    • Derek trips over Desmond and Courtney rolls out a cart which he lands on top of and rolls into a storeroom, where he ends up locked in.
  • The look on the page's face as he waves goodbye to Desmond and Rowena as they're magically dancing out of the kingdom is a small but hilarious moment near the end of the movie.
  • Felix making fun of Derek throughout the movie.
    Derek: My shoe polish. There... And over there!

Duchess Rowena

Twelve sisters in identical dresses means mix-ups are inevitable.
