That is, if we do break the spell and Beast becomes prince, the Beast has been banished, not accepted by the world as he is, which was what he longed for. No, he's merely been replaced, fang and hide and claw, by a nice-looking young fellow with a title; and the audience sighs . . . missing their Beast. We haven't cured the Beast, we've obliterated him. With Erik, the Phantom, it's more obvious: nothing can change his uglyness, and no matter how much Christine loves him, she can't make the world look at him and not cringe in disgust. This is crucial, because if he can't be cured, our monster will always need us. He will always need the only one who can bring herself to kiss his terrible mouth.

Having once tasted the joy of being loved by us, he will be constant forever, because he needs us; and if we stay with him and love him despite his uglyness, he will be grateful, he will love us all the more. He's humble, our beloved Beast, he knows he's not worthy, he knows what a stretch it is for us to love him despite his hairy puss, his horrible deformity. He knows that our being able to do that shows how wonderful we are, how totally worthy of his undying devotion. And if we went away, where would he ever find another?

But we would never go, we would never abandon him, because who could we find who would ever need us as much?

Besides, he's great in the sack. How could he not be? Our loving monster will do whatever we ask him to, and with our guidance and all his pent-up longing, his long deprivation, how could he fail to be a magnificent, a perfect, a most devoted lover?

For our part, he brings out the best in us, he calls us to our highest exercise of love, he vindicates our judgment and rewards our kindness, he makes heroines of us. No wonder he loves us, who wouldn't? And then there is the seductiveness of the Other, the stranger, the mate who is almost of another species, adding the thrill of the forbidden. Better yet, he has known hardly anyone but us (no invidious comparisons to other loves will cloud his love for us). He is forever in our debt for allowing him to taste the delights of sex and love at last, and being basically an honorable creature (noble, after all), he means to honor his debt. He is ours for good, and if for some reason we should cease to be his --why, he will let us go, out of his great love for us, and he will crawl away and die rather than live without us, leaving us in melancholy awe of our own great power --to cause another creature to die for lack of our love!
