“I was. But she left me because she thought I was a hopeless beast.” “Sorry.”

Happy ending! They make love and, as in the children’s story, the Beast is transformed into a handsome prince. In this scenario, he may actually remove his costume, mask, and wig, or he may simply change his personality. He might also change his clothing, donning a prince’s outfit.

“Who are you?” the wife asks.

“You can call me Prince B.”

“What happened?”

“Your love for me changed me from a beast to a handsome prince.”

“Isn’t that amazing! I think I’d like to make love to you again.”

“All right—if you insist.”

Playing out this game provides an opportunity for the angry husband and wife to step out of their customary mode of relating and see each other from the vantage point of this children’s story. Such children’s stories are universal because their messages ring true—and, by playing them out, the truths embedded in them (such as that beauty and beastliness are only skin deep) are experienced firsthand by the participants. This game also shows the husband and wife how to convert their anger into sexuality—something they may have forgotten. Finally, it induces them to look objectively at the rut they have been in and the attitudes that have kept them there. (This game can be reversed and played as “Handsome and the Bitch.”)
