Best way to get from Hoop-Dee-Doo to Epcot?

[BYC]

Is it best to take the boat to the MK, and then the monorail to Epcot? A friends family was in Epcot last night, but thunderstorms forced them to go home early, and miss Illuminations. (First Disney trip ever!) They would like an opportunity to see it before they go home! Or would it be better to take the bus from Fort Wilderness to Epcot?? I'm not too good at figuring best transportation! Thank you!

If they want to do the bus, they will have to take the inner bus to the outer bus. I am not sure if that would be any faster than a boat and a monorail.

Option A)
1- Ride the shuttle boat from FtW to MK.
2- Board the Boardwalk Bus (or Beach Club) from MK.
3- Ride to Boardwalk (or Beach Club)
4- Make the short walk from Boardwalk (or Beach Club) to Epcot's International Gateway.
(Which is in World Showcase, ready for IllumiNations.)

Alternate B)

1- Ride the shuttle boat from FtW to MK.
2- Board the Express monorail (goes to TTC.)
3- Change to the Epcot monorail at TTC.
4- Walk through Future World to World Showcase.

Alternate C) Likely only available after the 7:15PM and 9:30PM Hoop shows.

1- Head to the Settlement Bus stop (just a few yards from Pioneer Hall.)
2- Ask any Bus Driver there which bus is heading to Boardwalk (or Beach Club,) and board that bus.
3- Ride to Boardwalk (or Beach Club)
4- Make the short walk from Boardwalk (or Beach Club) to Epcot's International Gateway.
(Which is in World Showcase, ready for IllumiNations.)

The shortest duration and least amount of transfers would be to take any internal FW bus to the Outpost and then hop on an Epcot bus
