- The title: Frosch means frog in German and sometimes it is a well in stories that the princess loses her ball in and sometimes it is a spring, hence wellspring
- chemistry lab, formaldehyde: hinting to dissection and prescence of frogs
- rose perfume, glod locks, rose lips, unnoticed beauty rest, Sarah: I wanted to try and incorporate as many of the general princess stereotypes as I could. Even the name Sarah means princess
- gold heart shaped compact: the princess loses a gold ball, in place a gold compact with a circular mirror inside.
- Name of school and Sarah's name: semi-royalty in the school
- purple latex gloves: royalty
- fiddling with compact: open and close it like tossing a ball up and down
- Jacob Frosch: Jacob for the author, Frosch for frog
- vintage video game: frogger
- Louis Vuitton purse: royalty
- hopped and hobbled: frog like motions
- "I can fix it for you": offering
- proposal, terms: Frog will only retrieve ball under certain conditions
- dissecting frogs: Hint to the frog prince storyline
- Sarah chooses Aurora: Goes back on her promise
- smacks Jacob: symbolizes throwing him against the wall
- not half bad: turns into a prince
- completely mutilated frog: Jacob's years as an outcast were over and he was no longer a frog
So, I hope that helped explain a little more how it does actually fit into the plot of The Frog Prince quite nicely if I may say so myself.
