The villagers and LeFou sing a song about how great Gaston is, praising his victories in battle and his confidence. However, Gaston is annoyed by LeFou’s attempts to join in and boasts about his greatness throughout the song. It quickly becomes apparent that Gaston is dismissive of others’ intelligence, prideful, obnoxious, and self-centered. But despite his negative traits, the villagers and LeFou still admire him a lot, joining the entire crowd in singing about how good Gaston is and lifting his spirits.
Maurice rushes into the tavern, desperately seeking help to save Belle from the Beast. After being expelled from the establishment, he starts doubting his own sanity for sharing such an unbelievable story. Despite this, Gaston, intrigued by Maurice’s seemingly implausible account, decides to manipulate Belle into marrying him. He sings a reprise of the song with LeFou, outlining his scheme to imprison Maurice in an asylum in order to coerce Belle into marriage.
