The King chuckles as Victor relays his response. "He says that probably won't work -- he's too much of a dog person."
And then Cheshire delivers his news, and his heart nearly skips a beat. His wife? His wife is alive? Part of him is ecstatic, elated, and other positive words that begin with "e." The other worries that she's still a monster, and that this time he'll have to watch Alice put her down. . . . Inside, Victor is similarly torn. On the one hand, he's heard from Alice the chaos, pain, and death the Queen of Hearts inflicted on the populace of Wonderland. On the other hand, what if she really was like the King, and affected by something she couldn't control herself? It takes their combined willpowers not to rush off and overtake their guide.
