Once upon a time there was a haughty prince who was aloof and cruel. One day, a witch transformed him into a toad as punishment for his misdeeds, saying “And so shall you remain, cursed to hop the world ugly and forgotten, until you learn to change.”

“Woe is me,” thought the toad prince, “However am I to change while trapped in this crude form, unable even to speak? Is there something I must do to break this enchantment? Someplace I must go?”

And then, as if in answer to his question, he saw a sign. At that moment, all became clear to him and he knew what he had to do. Anyway, that’s why the soda machine is broken. Sorry about that. Just take this voucher to the front cashier and she’ll give you your dollar back.
