Barbie as Rapunzel (2002) Movie Script
1
Okay. Ready, Freddie.
Um, Barbie, what am I supposed to paint?
That's up to you.
Me?
But what if I don't have any good ideas?
You have wonderful ideas, your ideas.
Can't you just tell me what to paint?
And take away the best part?
Kelly, you can create
anything you imagine.
[sighs] I guess so.
But what if I hate it?
You know, you remind me of a story.
It's about a girl whose painting
saved her life.
But you probably don't want to hear it.
Hmm.
Once... long, long ago,
in a time of castles, kings and magic,
there was a secret manor
hidden deep in a dark forest.
The woods were whispered
to be full of monsters and dragons.
[growl]
And even if you were
brave enough to go into the forest,
you couldn't see the manor.
[Kelly] Why not?
[Barbie] It was concealed
behind a magic wall,
which kept intruders out.
And more importantly,
kept a young girl hidden inside.
Oh, do you hear that, Rapunzel?
It's my stomach rumbling.
I feel weak.
Oh, I see 'em, stars in front of me eyes.
Okay, okay, Hobie.
We wouldn't want anyone
fainting around here.
I'm almost done.
Look at this.
I mean, look at this painting.
I can smell the salt water.
I can feel the mist.
[Rapunzel] One day, I'm going
to walk along a beach just like this one
and see nothing but open sky
for miles and miles.
[exclaims] Uh-oh.
Gothel alert. Gothel alert!
Go, Rapunzel, go.
I'll put your art stuff away.
Thanks, Penelope.
[gasps]
[sighs]
[whinnying]
[gasps]
How was your ride today, milady?
Invigorating.
I'll expect my tea in nine minutes.
Yes, milady.
And don't repeat your errors of yesterday.
You steeped that tea for six minutes.
I expect six and a half minutes.
No more, no less.
Uh... of course.
Oh. And bring me a snack.
Ooh. Your little friend will do.
[gulps]
[nervous chuckle]
[gasps]
Mmm. [growls]
What's that?
Uh...
Painting again? What about your duties?
I finished them.
Oh, really?
Did you make the beds?
Sweep the floors, weed the garden?
Yes.
Beat the rugs, wax the table,
polish the silver?
Yes, milady.
Wash and mend my clothes?
Folded and put away.
Hmm.
[creaking]
Listen to that.
You're supposed to keep
the house in perfect order.
I didn't know about...
It's your job to know.
I've taken care of you since you were
a baby and this is how you thank me?
By frittering away your time painting?
This is atrocious.
I hope Gothel chokes on her tea.
Now, Hobie.
Wait, wait. I can [grunts] do it faster.
Just be very, very careful, Penelope.
[breathing heavily]
Oh.
Nice job.
[chuckles]
-Oh, no.
-[gasps]
Whoa!
[grunts]
I got it.
-[Hobie sighs]
-Don't forget the lemon.
Mmm. Oh.
Where's the teacup?
[grunts]
Phew.
Oh, now that's downright spooky.
What? You don't think I got moves?
'Cause I got moves.
Uh, turn around, purple girl.
[gasps]
Well, scratch my scales.
I wonder where it goes.
Hello? What about Gothel's tea?
We still have a few minutes. Come on.
Something great could be down here.
Oh, yeah, sure. Looks very inviting.
Uh, you don't think
there are spiders down there?
[hesitates] 'Cause I'm
not too fond of spiders
or beetles or snakes.
I don't like them either.
You're worried about bugs and snakes?
What about what Gothel will do
to us if she finds out we went down there?
Oh, but sure. Oh, yeah, let's go anyway.
No one ever listens to the rabbit.
[Rapunzel] Nobody's been
down here in years.
I can't imagine Gothel
attending all these balls.
I ask you, who in their
right mind would invite her to a party?
[shushes]
[exclaims] Would you look at this.
Ooh, she sure got mad at somebody.
I wouldn't want to be in his boots.
[Hobie] Or his head.
What a lovely old box.
[suppressing sneeze]
Not down here, Penelope.
[coughs]
[straining] I'm okay.
Phew.
[gasps]
It's beautiful.
There's something engraved on the back.
"Constant as the stars above,
always know that you are loved.
To our daughter, Rapunzel,
on her first birthday.
With love forever, Mother and Father."
This doesn't make sense.
Gothel said I was abandoned
when I was just a few days old.
Why would she lie to me about that?
Ah, why does the old hag
do anything other than to torment people?
"With love forever."
More junk holders.
[sneezes]
[Rapunzel gasps]
[chuckles nervously] Oops.
[coughing]
You really pack a wallop.
-[Gothel] Rapunzel.
-[gasps]
Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
Hurry, get cleaning.
[Gothel] Rapunzel, where are you?
We'll have to come back.
Coming, milady.
[Gothel] Enter.
What took you so long?
I'm sorry, I was distracted.
Lazy, you mean.
Adequate.
Oh, time, time, time.
My mistress is ready for her beauty nap.
Step to it, girl.
Will there be anything else?
No.
Go.
Don't disturb me until dinner.
Yes, milady.
Oh, allow me, mistress.
[moans, growls]
[growls]
This doesn't make sense.
Why would Gothel...
I'll tell you what Gothel's up to.
-What?
-No good, that's what.
Thank you. That's very helpful.
Oh, I see a very big hairy spider.
[screams]
Kidding.
[grunts] Happy?
How are we gonna fix this?
Don't worry, we'll think of something.
[wind blowing]
Hmm, that's funny.
A draft.
The tunnel must lead somewhere.
Maybe this isn't a good idea.
Now, there's the understatement
of the 17th century.
Plus, there's probably bugs, lots of bugs.
But I've never been outside
the magic wall.
This is my chance, maybe my only chance.
I'm going.
Okay, count me in.
[Penelope grunts]
This isn't going the way I planned.
Sorry, Rapunzel.
[grunting]
What? You couldn't fall six inches
to the left?
Next time I'll sit on you.
[Rapunzel] What about you, Hobie?
Me? Down there?
Oh, I better stay right here
with Penelope.
Somebody's gotta keep her out of trouble.
[Rapunzel] Okay. I'll be back soon.
We'll be here.
Worrying.
-[squeaking]
-[exclaims]
[sighs]
[birds chirping in the distance]
I don't believe it.
Good morning, miss.
No, thank you.
[Penelope] What if she's lost?
[exclaims]
Or in trouble?
Watch it with that thing.
What if she's trapped all alone,
facing a wild, ferocious beast?
Or worse, what if Gothel wakes up
before she comes back?
Hobie, what do you hear?
Anything? Is she coming?
Ah, I'm getting... I'm getting nothing.
Maybe if you move
my right ear down a notch.
How's that?
Wait. Wait. Ooh, I'm getting something.
Here it comes. Here... Uh, oh.
It's your father. He's looking for you.
[Penelope gasps]
[roaring]
Hello, Father.
Don't tell me you've
been here playing all day.
Playing? [stuttering] Not exactly.
I was helping Rapunzel.
Helping, is it?
Instead of practicing your skills?
Let me see you at your fiercest.
Breathe fire. Terrify me.
[inhales deeply]
Uh...
[chuckles sheepishly]
And, uh, [clears throat] your flying?
Show me how you can fly
over the magic wall.
I was just going to do that.
You know, this afternoon.
[chuckles nervously]
Oh, my.
Don't look down. Don't look down.
Don't look down, Penelope.
Don't look down.
Oh!
[gasps]
[panting] It's high.
Oh, it's really, really high.
Too high for a mighty dragon?
[grunts]
[Hobie] Does he ever smile?
[Penelope sighs] Not around me.
[horse approaching]
[Katrina] Whoa, boy, whoa!
-That's my last carrot.
-[crunching]
-He still looks hungry.
-[horse grunting]
I was going to share.
Here you go, Botticelli.
[gasps] Melody, Lorena, look.
Enough for everybody.
[screams]
Katrina!
[horse whinnies]
[gasps]
Help me.
Just hold on. I'll get you.
[Lorena] I'll get help.
[Melody] Hurry, Lorena.
I'm scared.
Grab on.
[grunting]
I can't.
Just let go with one hand, and reach up.
Oh. [breathing heavily]
[Rapunzel] That's it.
[Rapunzel grunts]
[both exclaiming]
[Rapunzel sighs]
[Katrina sighs]
Katrina.
Thank you for saving my sister.
And you for saving me.
I think he was worried about you.
His name is Botticelli.
He takes us everywhere.
That's why he's always hungry.
Come on. Let's go get those apples.
Um... [chuckles]
What beautiful girls.
On their good days.
Have we met before?
I've never been here before.
Do you live in Wilhelm's kingdom?
Who's he?
The king who ordered that.
Why would he do such a thing?
Wilhelm claims our king did
something terrible to him years ago.
-Did he?
-No.
But if he didn't do it,
can't the kings talk, explain?
It's too late for that.
The only way to end
the feud is through force.
-Well, that seems foolish.
-[girls laughing]
Oh, you think so?
[Lorena] Hey. Stop it.
-[Katrina] Give it back. Now.
-[Melody] That's not funny.
I better make sure they're okay.
I'll be right back.
-[Katrina] Give that back!
-[Melody] Hey! That's not fair.
[bell tolling]
Oh, no. How'd it get so late?
[growls]
Where did she go?
I don't even know her name.
Tell me again about the village
and don't leave out a single detail.
You should see it.
All the people, the castle, the food.
-[Hobie] Huh?
-But the best part was, I met somebody.
[coughs]
Otto.
[groans]
What are you doing here?
[clears throat]
Just a little interesting news for you.
I saw somebody today in the village.
And why should that interest me?
No reason.
Just a certain girl
with long blonde hairs.
What?
Rapunzel was in the village?
But how?
She found the tunnel,
down below the basement.
But that's not the best part.
[clears throat]
She was talking to uh...
...the most handsome man I've ever seen.
And you've seen how many men before?
And he was kind and strong and...
So? What was his name?
I don't know, I didn't even ask.
Unfortunately,
I didn't catch that juicy little detail.
Sorry.
I need to know who he is. I need his name.
This could ruin everything.
[Hobie humming] Whoa.
Maybe tomorrow, I can visit again.
-[gasps] Uh-oh. Gothel...
-[door unbolts]
...alert.
Did we have a nice little trip today?
Mmm. [growls]
Otto.
After all I've done.
After all I've given you,
this is how you repay me?
By sneaking off?
But I... why didn't you tell me
about the village? And it's so close by.
I did it for you.
To protect you from the evil there.
But everybody was so kind.
Yes, I'm sure they were.
I heard you met someone special.
Who was he?
I don't know his name.
-Liar!
-[gasps]
I'm telling the truth.
I believe I said I want his name.
But I already told you, I don't know.
-Maybe I'm not making myself clear!
-[gasps]
Don't!
No.
When I ask a question,
I expect an answer, girl.
But she said she doesn't know,
your ladyship.
So your friends are in
on your secret, are they?
[groans]
Stop. Please, they don't know.
Go, go.
Why are you doing this? You can't keep me
locked away from the world forever.
Watch me.
[whooshing]
Hugo.
[roars]
Enjoy your time alone.
I'm sure it will refresh your memory.
When I come back, I want a name.
In the meantime, clean up this mess.
It appears our little Rapunzel
has an adventurous spirit.
See to it that she stays put.
As you wish, mistress.
Or else...
[Hugo groans]
[sobbing] Why? Why?
Your Highness.
Good evening.
Tommy's out again.
Did you see that? Almost a bull's-eye.
[chuckles] If you count me as a target.
I just can't get it right.
I have to speak with Father now.
What do you say I help you practice later?
Really? Thanks, Stefan.
Uh, Stefan.
Yes?
Nothing. I'm just glad you're my brother.
Did you find the maiden
who saved our Katrina?
I'd like to express my gratitude.
I'm afraid not, Father.
The guards and I searched
the entire village.
Could she be a spy for King Wilhelm?
If she were, why would she
risk her safety to save Katrina?
[guard] Your Highness.
There was no sign
of King Wilhelm's horsemen.
This cannot go unanswered.
Tonight, I'll lead my own raiding party.
Be ready, Stefan.
Of course.
Father, when do you think
this feud will end?
When King Wilhelm pays for all his deeds.
-But...
-In a few days, you'll turn 18, Stefan.
One day you'll take over the kingdom
and it may be up to you to defeat Wilhelm.
Come on, Katrina. Go on.
You're the brave one.
Go, go, go. Ask him.
Cut it out.
Stefan, when are you going to see
the lady with the pretty hair again?
Soon. I hope.
[Stefan] Rapunzel...
Rapunzel.
Come down.
I can't.
Then I'll come up.
How?
Let down your hair.
You're even more beautiful
than I remembered.
How did you find me?
I searched everywhere.
-[evil laughter]
-[Rapunzel gasps]
[gasps]
[gasps, struggles]
Let me go! Let me...
[gasps]
"Constant as the stars above,
always know that you are loved."
I'm going to be free.
Constant as the stars above
Always know that you are loved
And my love shining in you
Will help you
Make your dreams come true
Will help your dreams
Come
True
[sniffles] Uh...
I got news for you.
We're never gonna find a beautiful maiden
with long blonde hair in here.
[spluttering] No kidding.
But Prince Stefan
can't find her anywhere else.
I ask you, why would any maiden
want to be out here in the first place?
Yeah, yeah. Exactly. Couldn't agree more.
[cackling]
Did you hear that?
Hear what?
[leaves rustling]
That. That.
[laughs] Nah, that's nothing.
Just sounds like something following us.
[growling]
Uh-oh.
-[screaming]
-[roaring]
[horses neighing]
Dragon! Dragon!
[growls]
[Gothel] Baker, is there going to be
a celebration?
Yeah, woman. The Prince's birthday.
Do you know how much baking that means?
Two hundred cinnamon rolls,
300 strudel, 400 cream puffs.
Not to mention a colossal birthday cake!
[swordsman] Dragon! Dragon!
[swordsmen] Your Highness.
Did you find her?
No, Your Highness.
We were chased by a giant beast, a dragon.
Fifty feet tall.
No, 100 feet.
Yeah. What he said.
Oh. And then it reared up
its ugly head and blew fire breath at us.
Twenty feet of boiling hot flames.
No, 100 feet.
It was hot.
Oh. It was only because
of our extraordinary cunning and bravery
that we escaped at all.
Exactly.
Yes, I'm sure nobody
has ever seen a beast quite so terrible.
But did you find the girl?
Uh, no sign of her, Your Highness.
If she did go in there, she must be...
[exclaims]
Well, I hope you're wrong.
Go now.
Please.
Help yourself to food and drink.
-Thanks, Prince Stefan.
-Thank you, Your Highness.
[coughing]
-[bell tolling]
-[people chattering]
[guard] Hurry! Get the king.
It was King Wilhelm's men,
Your Highness. I saw them.
Slashing and destroying everything.
[all chattering]
Attention. Attention!
This attack on our kingdom
will not go unanswered.
King Wilhelm and his thugs will pay
for their misdeeds, this I promise you.
Now do you understand?
This is why we must stop
Wilhelm at all costs.
Beautiful.
They may destroy each other
sooner than I thought.
Do you think we have enough berries?
Oh. [stutters] I'm not sure.
Well, we would if you'd stop eating them.
Who said I'm eating them?
[chuckles, clears throat]
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
It's so simple.
We bust her out.
And how would we do that?
I haven't figured out that part yet.
At least we can bring her this.
-[Hugo] What are you doing?
-Father.
I'm trying to make paint for Rapunzel.
That girl is none of your concern.
But I just thought...
A dragon should be terrifying,
feared by all who see him.
And what do you do?
Fool around? Play games?
But what if... it's just that...
Well, I'm not so sure that I want to be,
you know, all that terrifying,
or even scary or mean.
Oh, definitely not mean.
Enough!
Have you turned your back
on our code of honor?
For ages, a mighty dragon
has stood for power, courage and loyalty.
I know, Father. I'm sorry.
Hmm.
[Hobie] We brought
you something, Rapunzel.
[grunts]
See?
Here, so you can start painting again.
There would've been more
if Mr. Berry Eater here
hadn't snagged so many.
Well, it was my snack time.
I... I don't know what to say.
Well, it goes, "Thank you.
What would I do without you?"
And like that, you know.
Oh. We forgot one teeny, tiny detail.
A paintbrush.
Oh. What about this one?
Now I know my eyes are going.
I could swear this used to be a hairbrush.
I don't understand.
[Hobie] Well, what are you
waiting for? Dip in.
[gasps]
How'd you do that?
I don't know.
I was thinking of the blue sky
and there it was.
Whoa.
This time I was thinking
of the grass in the village.
You don't even need paint.
See? I could have had more berries.
[Penelope] It's... It's...
[Hobie] Not bad.
Show us all the places you went.
I want to see 'em all.
Here's the baker's shop
and the main square
and a garden outside the castle.
Where? Where?
[Hobie] Hey! [grunts]
[both gasp]
Hobie.
Oh, I thought I was a goner.
Well, twist my tail.
[chirping]
I have a good feeling about this.
Are you crazy?
You could wind up a blob of paint.
That's better than being a prisoner.
[Stefan] Is that you?
I've been looking everywhere.
I've been... Well, it's a long story.
I hoped you might come back here.
I realized I don't even know your name.
Rapunzel.
Rapunzel.
My name...
Please, don't tell me.
Why not?
It's better I don't know.
You're full of surprises.
Can you help me find the maker
of this brush?
"Love, Mother and Father."
Don't your parents know?
I haven't seen my parents
since I was a baby.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm hoping whoever made this brush
might know who they are.
Well, I'd say we start
with the silversmith.
-Oh, Your High...
-[mouthing]
Hi, hi, hi. Hello.
How are you?
What can I do for you, uh, gentlefolk?
I was wondering, sir,
if you might recognize this?
Yes, I do.
Ooh. Look at the details. Very fine work.
You made it?
Oh, no, not me. My brother.
That's wonderful. May I speak with him?
Oh, I'm afraid not.
I haven't spoken with him myself in years.
Why not?
Uh, the feud, I'm afraid.
He lives in Wilhelm's kingdom.
Can't you visit him there?
Uh...
Nobody has gone back and forth between
the kingdoms since the feud started.
You must miss him.
[sighs] More than I can say, milady.
More than I can say.
[Penelope] Do you think
she's really there?
Your guess is as good as mine.
Oh, I miss her already.
Yeah, yeah, don't get all blubbery on me.
[exclaims] Big, bad Gothel on the horizon.
[gasps] What're we gonna do?
If Gothel finds out Rapunzel's gone,
who knows what she'll do to my father.
Nothing more than he deserves.
Hobie, come on, this is serious.
We have to get Rapunzel back.
In three minutes?
Oh, that's how long it'll take
for Gothel to get here.
I have to do something. My father!
Okay, here's the plan.
I'll stall Gothel and you find Rapunzel.
Great. You stall, I'll go. I like it.
Except for one thing.
I'm going to become ferret food?
No. I can't fly over the magic wall.
And I don't even know
where the village is.
How can I find her?
I mean, she went somewhere through there.
There's your answer.
Me?
Go in the painting, too?
As in, me?
I'm sorry you didn't
find out more about your parents.
I'm not giving up.
Good.
So, uh...
I was wondering if... well...
Here.
"You are herewith
invited to the masked ball
in honor of the Prince's birthday."
It's tonight.
I would've given it to you sooner,
but you're hard to find.
You must be pretty important
if you're invited to the Prince's ball.
Oh, I don't know about that.
Will you come?
I'd love to.
It's just, I've never been
to a masked ball.
What's it like?
Well, see for yourself tonight.
I'll pick you up at 7:00 in my carriage.
No! No, I'll meet you there.
So mysterious.
All right. I guess I'll be able
to recognize you behind a mask.
Oh, you think so?
Your hair. It's a beautiful giveaway.
Hugo, come at once.
[exclaims]
Hurry up, hurry up.
I'm going, I'm going!
-Wait.
-[grunts]
What am I doing?
Move!
[exclaiming]
[gasps]
I made it. I actually made it.
-Stand back.
-Wait. She's my friend.
Watch it with that thing.
Somebody could get seriously hurt.
You're friends with a... a dragon?
Hey, the name's Penelope, bucko.
You have to come with me, Rapunzel.
Gothel's coming.
Um, I'll just be a minute.
What's wrong?
You must come back. Please.
When Gothel finds out you're gone,
who knows what she'll do to my father.
I have to go. I'll see you tonight.
I'll explain everything.
I'll be looking for you.
[screams]
[grunts]
Oh. That's gonna do wonders
for my back. [gasps]
Oh, wait, your ladyship, wait.
Please, I need, uh...
You see, I gotta have...
What I'm needing is...
What am I saying? What am I saying?
Spit it out, rabbit.
My sciatica. It's killing me.
Oh, I can barely hop. It's a miracle
I can even get around at all.
Let me tell you, there's nothing
more pathetic than a hop-less rabbit.
Oh, please.
I need a tonic to cure me.
Oh, it hurts! Oh, the pain... Really.
[exclaims]
How are we going to get back in time?
[both] Paintbrush.
I'll come back and clean it up later.
No, no, no. Not yet. Let's... let's talk.
We don't talk enough.
You know, like the good old days.
You're useless.
Give him to me. [moans]
I'll leave you the lucky rabbit's feet.
These? Oh, no, no,
you don't want these. Oh, no.
I come from a long line
of unlucky rabbits, you know. Trust me.
I mean, look at these feet.
Corns, bunions, ingrowing toenails,
a real mess.
[screaming]
[thuds]
[groans, gulps]
[Rapunzel] I hope this works.
So, Hugo, your daughter
is with Rapunzel once again.
Penelope isn't doing anything wrong.
I guess a foolish, scared little dragon
isn't much to worry about.
[grunts]
So, Rapunzel.
I assume your memory has improved?
Are you ready to tell me who you met?
But I'm telling you, I don't know.
[scoffs] Fine.
Rot here for all I care.
I would watch that daughter of yours.
She's a little too friendly for my taste.
Yes, mistress.
[Penelope sighs]
You saved my father.
For now.
But I can't stay.
We all have to go.
I'm going to leave tonight.
And you have to convince
your father to go, too.
Somewhere where Gothel can't find you.
I've been thinking, Father,
about my birthday.
Yes?
I would like permission
to invite King Wilhelm.
What? Are you mad?
Maybe. But lately I've been thinking.
This feud has gone on
as long as I can remember.
Families have been separated,
brother from brother.
Stefan, King Wilhelm is our sworn enemy.
And it will always be that way
unless we try to change it.
Someone has to make
the first move to forgive.
No. Impossible!
When you're older, you'll understand.
I don't think this dress
is right for a masked ball.
Maybe we could do it up.
[Hobie] Mmm.
[Rapunzel] Hmm.
I wonder...
Ooh. Go ahead, try it on.
What do you think?
Beautiful.
Mmm.
I think it's too simple.
[Penelope] Then get busy
and paint another one.
[gasps]
[exclaims] It's a bit much.
Hmm.
How about this one?
Definitely ahead of its time.
Yes. Yes, I think so.
This is the one.
You're beautiful, Rapunzel.
[Penelope] No, no, no.
Gorgeous. No, magnificent.
Absolutely lovely.
-Outrageous!
-[Otto grunts]
It is, isn't it?
All these years, after all I've planned.
It must be that boy she met.
Who else?
I refuse to let a lovesick
young fool ruin everything.
Any specific plans,
or just general pain and anguish?
Pain, anguish and perhaps a trim.
I guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
[Hobie] Really?
Whoever heard of going
to a masked ball without a mask?
You made this for me?
Oh. Do you see anyone else here
dressed for a ball?
[wings flapping]
[gasps] Uh-oh, it's...
Look at that.
You do look lovely in your
party clothes, Rapunzel.
It's just your hair.
It's not quite right.
[Hobie gasps]
No. [gasps]
No.
Now, now, it's only hair.
You are the lowest, meanest, nastiest...
Otto, he's all yours.
[snarling]
No. Don't hurt him.
It's me you want. But why?
I still don't understand.
There's magic around this.
[both gasp]
Oh.
And you two.
You're mixed up in this somehow. Out!
Out!
[grunting]
What an oaf.
Yike!
[gasps]
[Rapunzel screams]
No!
Hugo, come here.
One more chance, Rapunzel.
Who is the boy? Tell me his name.
I don't know.
Then live with your lies. Forever!
Tower, tower, do your part.
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
Note that as these words are spoken,
this fearsome spell can never be broken.
[evil laughter]
Hugo, you disappoint me.
Your daughter is a disgrace.
More loyal to her friends
than to her mistress.
She's still young, she'll learn.
Or maybe her father
doesn't know where his loyalties lie.
What are you doing?
Ensuring I have time
to deal with you later.
Right now, I'm planning a little dance
with Rapunzel's mysterious suitor.
[Otto laughs]
No! No!
We will attack from the west wall.
As you wish, King Wilhelm.
I have prepared our troops.
I will never forgive him
for what he's done.
Frederick will pay, once and for all.
[music playing]
[all chattering]
[Katrina] Oh. Don't you just love it?
[sighs]
Everything is so beautiful.
I'd rather read a good book.
Where's Stefan?
Um... over there.
Son, why aren't you out dancing?
I'm waiting for someone.
Mmm. And what makes this girl so special?
Oh, she likes me, not my crown.
She doesn't even know I'm the Prince.
I'd like to meet her.
[grunting]
[Penelope] Father.
I expected more from you.
You don't understand.
Rapunzel helped save...
Look at me.
I'm chained like a common dog
because of you and your friend.
Yes, I hope so.
Rapunzel?
Rapunzel.
Wait.
Where are we going?
Ah, the masked lady finally stops.
Don't I please you, Prince Stefan?
I don't understand.
-I thought you were...
-Rapunzel.
Yes, so I gather.
Unfortunately, she's not coming.
[laughs]
Mmm.
Her hair.
Who are you?
I'm the one who's going to teach you
not to meddle with my plans.
[grunts]
Zap him. Fry him. Puree him.
[grunting]
He won't listen to me.
You're gonna let
a little thing like that stop you?
I wish Rapunzel were here.
Well, if she were here,
what would she tell you?
That she loves me.
So...
Father, please.
I have to tell you something.
No. Nothing more from you.
I... I'm going to tell you anyway.
Rapunzel saved your life
and you didn't even know it.
She was free and she came back here
because I asked her to.
What?
She came back
so Gothel wouldn't destroy you.
Hmm.
It's true.
We have to help her escape from the tower.
Please, Father, please.
I... I didn't know.
[grunting]
I wish we could help her,
but it's impossible.
I've served under Gothel for many years
and her spells are unbreakable.
I won't give up.
A mighty thought.
Rapunzel doesn't deserve
to be trapped like this.
Mmm. Penelope, the spell
only traps a prisoner with a lying heart.
But Rapunzel isn't a liar.
[gasps]
If that is so...
Rapunzel. Rapunzel.
You haven't been lying to Gothel,
so my father thinks
Gothel's spell can't stop you.
What did Gothel say?
"Never release your prisoner..."
[both] "With a lying heart."
Hugo may be right.
Okay. Okay.
[Hobie] Oh, I can't look.
[exhales]
Here we go.
Thank you, Hugo.
I understand it is I who must thank you.
We have to get to the ball. But how?
[chain rattling]
[gulps]
But it's still so high.
Penelope, do you believe
a mighty dragon can fly over the wall?
Of course.
Then believe you can do it.
For you are a mighty dragon.
Me?
What makes might?
It is more than power.
It is also courage and loyalty.
You have never swerved
in your devotion to your friend,
no matter the danger.
I see now that you truly are
a mighty dragon, Penelope.
And I am proud of you.
[sniffling] Oh.
Now, go.
What about you?
Don't worry, I'll be fine.
Now, go. Go!
Coming, Hobie?
Oh. Watch the bumps.
I get queasy easy, you know.
You can do it, Penelope.
I am a mighty dragon.
I am a mighty dragon.
[panting]
It's so beautiful up here.
I knew you could do it.
Please be all right. We're coming.
[grunts]
Hey. This is not funny.
[laughing]
Nobody hurts my brother. Nobody.
-Take that.
-Get her, Melody. Get her.
[grunting] Mistress.
I could use a little help here.
To think some people
actually adore children.
They're out of their minds.
[screaming]
Uh-oh.
Tommy.
[gasps] I look terrible.
And it's a formal occasion.
[grunting]
Wilhelm? Guards! Guards!
Save your breath, Frederick.
[both grunting]
Wilhelm?
Surrender, Frederick.
No, Father.
[both grunting]
[both exclaiming]
So again, we meet at a ball.
Gothel? Is that you?
What are you doing here?
I came to clean up some loose ends.
You know her? Who is she?
I knew her once long ago. We were friends.
Friends? Friends?
You loved me. I know you did.
No, Gothel. I never loved you.
And for that, you will pay once again.
[grunts]
Pay again? What are you talking about?
Let me ask you, Frederick.
You hate this man.
Why?
He attacked my kingdom without cause.
You stole my daughter.
No. For the 1,000th time,
I never stole her.
No, I did.
What?
She would've been
my daughter if you had married me.
I simply took what was mine.
You took Rapunzel?
Where is she, Gothel?
Tell me. You monster!
What does it matter?
[screaming]
You'll never see her again.
[laughs]
My beautiful little girl.
[whispers] I've seen her.
Where? When?
Now do you realize
what a fool you were, Wilhelm?
You could have had so much.
You should have loved me.
You don't know what love is, Gothel.
I'm finished with you. All of you.
No. No more.
[Gothel] It can't be.
Impossible.
You kept me locked up
my whole life because you hated my father?
He deserved to suffer as I did.
No. No more suffering,
Gothel, for anybody.
My, my.
You think you can stop me?
Maybe not alone.
But with the help of a mighty dragon.
Mighty dragon?
[laughs]
I see a sniveling goose.
Ooh, so scary. Did you bring
your rabbit friend along, too?
Because I'm ready for an appetizer.
Fire away, Penelope.
[inhales deeply]
[exclaims]
I was just leaving.
[laughing]
You're number one in my book, girl.
-Rapunzel, you and your friends...
-[gasps]
...won't live to see the next sunrise.
[gasps]
Run, Rapunzel. Go!
Hurry, you know where.
[grunts]
Please, Gothel, we can all start over.
I forgive you for all those years.
No more hatred. Please.
And be made a fool of?
Never!
[laughing]
-[Rapunzel] Now.
-[gasps]
Mistress, will you wait for me?
[exclaiming]
[Gothel] What? It can't be.
[groans]
Magic spell upon the tower,
I command you to lose your power.
[gasps]
No!
Hugo. Hugo.
Get me out of here.
I can't.
You said one with a lying heart
would be imprisoned forever.
Rapunzel never lied. But you, Gothel...
[Gothel echoing] Never release
your prisoner with a lying heart.
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
No. No!
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
I have to find Rapunzel.
[footsteps approaching]
Are you all right?
I am now.
Rapunzel?
Father?
I thought you were gone forever.
All those years, I thought I was alone.
Your mother and I
have never stopped thinking about you.
Our love is as constant...
[both] ...as the stars above.
I don't know where to begin, Frederick.
I've wronged you all these years.
I'm glad that Rapunzel is safe.
Hmm.
I hope someday you can find it
in your heart to forgive me.
[sighs]
Gee.
That's beautiful.
Hey, I call 'em as I see 'em.
[Barbie] With the two kingdoms reunited,
-peace returned to the land.
-[bells tolling]
And it wasn't long
before the magical day came
when Rapunzel married Prince Stefan.
Everyone was there.
[all applauding]
Then, Rapunzel and Stefan
moved into their own palace.
[Kelly] But what about Hobie?
And Penelope? Did they come, too?
[snoring]
[Barbie] Hobie made out just fine,
sleeping on the cushiest pillow
in the palace.
And Penelope
and her father lived there, too.
[inhales deeply]
In the winter, they kept the castle warm.
[Kelly] Whatever happened to Gothel?
[Barbie] Oh, she dedicated
the rest of her days
to making Otto's life miserable.
[Gothel] Otto. Otto!
I said six and a half minutes.
This tea was obviously...
[mimicking Gothel] Otto. Otto.
Blah, blah, blah. Six and a half minutes.
-[Gothel] Where are my biscuits?
-Leave to steep for 11 minutes.
Where are my biscuits?
And blah, blah, blah.
Coming, mistress.
-[crashing]
-[Otto screams]
[Barbie] And Rapunzel and Stefan
lived happily ever after.
Wow. I wish I had a magic paintbrush,
like Rapunzel.
But you do.
The magic comes from here.
You're right.
You know what, Barbie?
I know Rapunzel's secret.
You do?
She painted what she dreamed.
When you do that, you never go wrong.
Okay. Ready, Freddie.
Um, Barbie, what am I supposed to paint?
That's up to you.
Me?
But what if I don't have any good ideas?
You have wonderful ideas, your ideas.
Can't you just tell me what to paint?
And take away the best part?
Kelly, you can create
anything you imagine.
[sighs] I guess so.
But what if I hate it?
You know, you remind me of a story.
It's about a girl whose painting
saved her life.
But you probably don't want to hear it.
Hmm.
Once... long, long ago,
in a time of castles, kings and magic,
there was a secret manor
hidden deep in a dark forest.
The woods were whispered
to be full of monsters and dragons.
[growl]
And even if you were
brave enough to go into the forest,
you couldn't see the manor.
[Kelly] Why not?
[Barbie] It was concealed
behind a magic wall,
which kept intruders out.
And more importantly,
kept a young girl hidden inside.
Oh, do you hear that, Rapunzel?
It's my stomach rumbling.
I feel weak.
Oh, I see 'em, stars in front of me eyes.
Okay, okay, Hobie.
We wouldn't want anyone
fainting around here.
I'm almost done.
Look at this.
I mean, look at this painting.
I can smell the salt water.
I can feel the mist.
[Rapunzel] One day, I'm going
to walk along a beach just like this one
and see nothing but open sky
for miles and miles.
[exclaims] Uh-oh.
Gothel alert. Gothel alert!
Go, Rapunzel, go.
I'll put your art stuff away.
Thanks, Penelope.
[gasps]
[sighs]
[whinnying]
[gasps]
How was your ride today, milady?
Invigorating.
I'll expect my tea in nine minutes.
Yes, milady.
And don't repeat your errors of yesterday.
You steeped that tea for six minutes.
I expect six and a half minutes.
No more, no less.
Uh... of course.
Oh. And bring me a snack.
Ooh. Your little friend will do.
[gulps]
[nervous chuckle]
[gasps]
Mmm. [growls]
What's that?
Uh...
Painting again? What about your duties?
I finished them.
Oh, really?
Did you make the beds?
Sweep the floors, weed the garden?
Yes.
Beat the rugs, wax the table,
polish the silver?
Yes, milady.
Wash and mend my clothes?
Folded and put away.
Hmm.
[creaking]
Listen to that.
You're supposed to keep
the house in perfect order.
I didn't know about...
It's your job to know.
I've taken care of you since you were
a baby and this is how you thank me?
By frittering away your time painting?
This is atrocious.
I hope Gothel chokes on her tea.
Now, Hobie.
Wait, wait. I can [grunts] do it faster.
Just be very, very careful, Penelope.
[breathing heavily]
Oh.
Nice job.
[chuckles]
-Oh, no.
-[gasps]
Whoa!
[grunts]
I got it.
-[Hobie sighs]
-Don't forget the lemon.
Mmm. Oh.
Where's the teacup?
[grunts]
Phew.
Oh, now that's downright spooky.
What? You don't think I got moves?
'Cause I got moves.
Uh, turn around, purple girl.
[gasps]
Well, scratch my scales.
I wonder where it goes.
Hello? What about Gothel's tea?
We still have a few minutes. Come on.
Something great could be down here.
Oh, yeah, sure. Looks very inviting.
Uh, you don't think
there are spiders down there?
[hesitates] 'Cause I'm
not too fond of spiders
or beetles or snakes.
I don't like them either.
You're worried about bugs and snakes?
What about what Gothel will do
to us if she finds out we went down there?
Oh, but sure. Oh, yeah, let's go anyway.
No one ever listens to the rabbit.
[Rapunzel] Nobody's been
down here in years.
I can't imagine Gothel
attending all these balls.
I ask you, who in their
right mind would invite her to a party?
[shushes]
[exclaims] Would you look at this.
Ooh, she sure got mad at somebody.
I wouldn't want to be in his boots.
[Hobie] Or his head.
What a lovely old box.
[suppressing sneeze]
Not down here, Penelope.
[coughs]
[straining] I'm okay.
Phew.
[gasps]
It's beautiful.
There's something engraved on the back.
"Constant as the stars above,
always know that you are loved.
To our daughter, Rapunzel,
on her first birthday.
With love forever, Mother and Father."
This doesn't make sense.
Gothel said I was abandoned
when I was just a few days old.
Why would she lie to me about that?
Ah, why does the old hag
do anything other than to torment people?
"With love forever."
More junk holders.
[sneezes]
[Rapunzel gasps]
[chuckles nervously] Oops.
[coughing]
You really pack a wallop.
-[Gothel] Rapunzel.
-[gasps]
Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
Hurry, get cleaning.
[Gothel] Rapunzel, where are you?
We'll have to come back.
Coming, milady.
[Gothel] Enter.
What took you so long?
I'm sorry, I was distracted.
Lazy, you mean.
Adequate.
Oh, time, time, time.
My mistress is ready for her beauty nap.
Step to it, girl.
Will there be anything else?
No.
Go.
Don't disturb me until dinner.
Yes, milady.
Oh, allow me, mistress.
[moans, growls]
[growls]
This doesn't make sense.
Why would Gothel...
I'll tell you what Gothel's up to.
-What?
-No good, that's what.
Thank you. That's very helpful.
Oh, I see a very big hairy spider.
[screams]
Kidding.
[grunts] Happy?
How are we gonna fix this?
Don't worry, we'll think of something.
[wind blowing]
Hmm, that's funny.
A draft.
The tunnel must lead somewhere.
Maybe this isn't a good idea.
Now, there's the understatement
of the 17th century.
Plus, there's probably bugs, lots of bugs.
But I've never been outside
the magic wall.
This is my chance, maybe my only chance.
I'm going.
Okay, count me in.
[Penelope grunts]
This isn't going the way I planned.
Sorry, Rapunzel.
[grunting]
What? You couldn't fall six inches
to the left?
Next time I'll sit on you.
[Rapunzel] What about you, Hobie?
Me? Down there?
Oh, I better stay right here
with Penelope.
Somebody's gotta keep her out of trouble.
[Rapunzel] Okay. I'll be back soon.
We'll be here.
Worrying.
-[squeaking]
-[exclaims]
[sighs]
[birds chirping in the distance]
I don't believe it.
Good morning, miss.
No, thank you.
[Penelope] What if she's lost?
[exclaims]
Or in trouble?
Watch it with that thing.
What if she's trapped all alone,
facing a wild, ferocious beast?
Or worse, what if Gothel wakes up
before she comes back?
Hobie, what do you hear?
Anything? Is she coming?
Ah, I'm getting... I'm getting nothing.
Maybe if you move
my right ear down a notch.
How's that?
Wait. Wait. Ooh, I'm getting something.
Here it comes. Here... Uh, oh.
It's your father. He's looking for you.
[Penelope gasps]
[roaring]
Hello, Father.
Don't tell me you've
been here playing all day.
Playing? [stuttering] Not exactly.
I was helping Rapunzel.
Helping, is it?
Instead of practicing your skills?
Let me see you at your fiercest.
Breathe fire. Terrify me.
[inhales deeply]
Uh...
[chuckles sheepishly]
And, uh, [clears throat] your flying?
Show me how you can fly
over the magic wall.
I was just going to do that.
You know, this afternoon.
[chuckles nervously]
Oh, my.
Don't look down. Don't look down.
Don't look down, Penelope.
Don't look down.
Oh!
[gasps]
[panting] It's high.
Oh, it's really, really high.
Too high for a mighty dragon?
[grunts]
[Hobie] Does he ever smile?
[Penelope sighs] Not around me.
[horse approaching]
[Katrina] Whoa, boy, whoa!
-That's my last carrot.
-[crunching]
-He still looks hungry.
-[horse grunting]
I was going to share.
Here you go, Botticelli.
[gasps] Melody, Lorena, look.
Enough for everybody.
[screams]
Katrina!
[horse whinnies]
[gasps]
Help me.
Just hold on. I'll get you.
[Lorena] I'll get help.
[Melody] Hurry, Lorena.
I'm scared.
Grab on.
[grunting]
I can't.
Just let go with one hand, and reach up.
Oh. [breathing heavily]
[Rapunzel] That's it.
[Rapunzel grunts]
[both exclaiming]
[Rapunzel sighs]
[Katrina sighs]
Katrina.
Thank you for saving my sister.
And you for saving me.
I think he was worried about you.
His name is Botticelli.
He takes us everywhere.
That's why he's always hungry.
Come on. Let's go get those apples.
Um... [chuckles]
What beautiful girls.
On their good days.
Have we met before?
I've never been here before.
Do you live in Wilhelm's kingdom?
Who's he?
The king who ordered that.
Why would he do such a thing?
Wilhelm claims our king did
something terrible to him years ago.
-Did he?
-No.
But if he didn't do it,
can't the kings talk, explain?
It's too late for that.
The only way to end
the feud is through force.
-Well, that seems foolish.
-[girls laughing]
Oh, you think so?
[Lorena] Hey. Stop it.
-[Katrina] Give it back. Now.
-[Melody] That's not funny.
I better make sure they're okay.
I'll be right back.
-[Katrina] Give that back!
-[Melody] Hey! That's not fair.
[bell tolling]
Oh, no. How'd it get so late?
[growls]
Where did she go?
I don't even know her name.
Tell me again about the village
and don't leave out a single detail.
You should see it.
All the people, the castle, the food.
-[Hobie] Huh?
-But the best part was, I met somebody.
[coughs]
Otto.
[groans]
What are you doing here?
[clears throat]
Just a little interesting news for you.
I saw somebody today in the village.
And why should that interest me?
No reason.
Just a certain girl
with long blonde hairs.
What?
Rapunzel was in the village?
But how?
She found the tunnel,
down below the basement.
But that's not the best part.
[clears throat]
She was talking to uh...
...the most handsome man I've ever seen.
And you've seen how many men before?
And he was kind and strong and...
So? What was his name?
I don't know, I didn't even ask.
Unfortunately,
I didn't catch that juicy little detail.
Sorry.
I need to know who he is. I need his name.
This could ruin everything.
[Hobie humming] Whoa.
Maybe tomorrow, I can visit again.
-[gasps] Uh-oh. Gothel...
-[door unbolts]
...alert.
Did we have a nice little trip today?
Mmm. [growls]
Otto.
After all I've done.
After all I've given you,
this is how you repay me?
By sneaking off?
But I... why didn't you tell me
about the village? And it's so close by.
I did it for you.
To protect you from the evil there.
But everybody was so kind.
Yes, I'm sure they were.
I heard you met someone special.
Who was he?
I don't know his name.
-Liar!
-[gasps]
I'm telling the truth.
I believe I said I want his name.
But I already told you, I don't know.
-Maybe I'm not making myself clear!
-[gasps]
Don't!
No.
When I ask a question,
I expect an answer, girl.
But she said she doesn't know,
your ladyship.
So your friends are in
on your secret, are they?
[groans]
Stop. Please, they don't know.
Go, go.
Why are you doing this? You can't keep me
locked away from the world forever.
Watch me.
[whooshing]
Hugo.
[roars]
Enjoy your time alone.
I'm sure it will refresh your memory.
When I come back, I want a name.
In the meantime, clean up this mess.
It appears our little Rapunzel
has an adventurous spirit.
See to it that she stays put.
As you wish, mistress.
Or else...
[Hugo groans]
[sobbing] Why? Why?
Your Highness.
Good evening.
Tommy's out again.
Did you see that? Almost a bull's-eye.
[chuckles] If you count me as a target.
I just can't get it right.
I have to speak with Father now.
What do you say I help you practice later?
Really? Thanks, Stefan.
Uh, Stefan.
Yes?
Nothing. I'm just glad you're my brother.
Did you find the maiden
who saved our Katrina?
I'd like to express my gratitude.
I'm afraid not, Father.
The guards and I searched
the entire village.
Could she be a spy for King Wilhelm?
If she were, why would she
risk her safety to save Katrina?
[guard] Your Highness.
There was no sign
of King Wilhelm's horsemen.
This cannot go unanswered.
Tonight, I'll lead my own raiding party.
Be ready, Stefan.
Of course.
Father, when do you think
this feud will end?
When King Wilhelm pays for all his deeds.
-But...
-In a few days, you'll turn 18, Stefan.
One day you'll take over the kingdom
and it may be up to you to defeat Wilhelm.
Come on, Katrina. Go on.
You're the brave one.
Go, go, go. Ask him.
Cut it out.
Stefan, when are you going to see
the lady with the pretty hair again?
Soon. I hope.
[Stefan] Rapunzel...
Rapunzel.
Come down.
I can't.
Then I'll come up.
How?
Let down your hair.
You're even more beautiful
than I remembered.
How did you find me?
I searched everywhere.
-[evil laughter]
-[Rapunzel gasps]
[gasps]
[gasps, struggles]
Let me go! Let me...
[gasps]
"Constant as the stars above,
always know that you are loved."
I'm going to be free.
Constant as the stars above
Always know that you are loved
And my love shining in you
Will help you
Make your dreams come true
Will help your dreams
Come
True
[sniffles] Uh...
I got news for you.
We're never gonna find a beautiful maiden
with long blonde hair in here.
[spluttering] No kidding.
But Prince Stefan
can't find her anywhere else.
I ask you, why would any maiden
want to be out here in the first place?
Yeah, yeah. Exactly. Couldn't agree more.
[cackling]
Did you hear that?
Hear what?
[leaves rustling]
That. That.
[laughs] Nah, that's nothing.
Just sounds like something following us.
[growling]
Uh-oh.
-[screaming]
-[roaring]
[horses neighing]
Dragon! Dragon!
[growls]
[Gothel] Baker, is there going to be
a celebration?
Yeah, woman. The Prince's birthday.
Do you know how much baking that means?
Two hundred cinnamon rolls,
300 strudel, 400 cream puffs.
Not to mention a colossal birthday cake!
[swordsman] Dragon! Dragon!
[swordsmen] Your Highness.
Did you find her?
No, Your Highness.
We were chased by a giant beast, a dragon.
Fifty feet tall.
No, 100 feet.
Yeah. What he said.
Oh. And then it reared up
its ugly head and blew fire breath at us.
Twenty feet of boiling hot flames.
No, 100 feet.
It was hot.
Oh. It was only because
of our extraordinary cunning and bravery
that we escaped at all.
Exactly.
Yes, I'm sure nobody
has ever seen a beast quite so terrible.
But did you find the girl?
Uh, no sign of her, Your Highness.
If she did go in there, she must be...
[exclaims]
Well, I hope you're wrong.
Go now.
Please.
Help yourself to food and drink.
-Thanks, Prince Stefan.
-Thank you, Your Highness.
[coughing]
-[bell tolling]
-[people chattering]
[guard] Hurry! Get the king.
It was King Wilhelm's men,
Your Highness. I saw them.
Slashing and destroying everything.
[all chattering]
Attention. Attention!
This attack on our kingdom
will not go unanswered.
King Wilhelm and his thugs will pay
for their misdeeds, this I promise you.
Now do you understand?
This is why we must stop
Wilhelm at all costs.
Beautiful.
They may destroy each other
sooner than I thought.
Do you think we have enough berries?
Oh. [stutters] I'm not sure.
Well, we would if you'd stop eating them.
Who said I'm eating them?
[chuckles, clears throat]
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
It's so simple.
We bust her out.
And how would we do that?
I haven't figured out that part yet.
At least we can bring her this.
-[Hugo] What are you doing?
-Father.
I'm trying to make paint for Rapunzel.
That girl is none of your concern.
But I just thought...
A dragon should be terrifying,
feared by all who see him.
And what do you do?
Fool around? Play games?
But what if... it's just that...
Well, I'm not so sure that I want to be,
you know, all that terrifying,
or even scary or mean.
Oh, definitely not mean.
Enough!
Have you turned your back
on our code of honor?
For ages, a mighty dragon
has stood for power, courage and loyalty.
I know, Father. I'm sorry.
Hmm.
[Hobie] We brought
you something, Rapunzel.
[grunts]
See?
Here, so you can start painting again.
There would've been more
if Mr. Berry Eater here
hadn't snagged so many.
Well, it was my snack time.
I... I don't know what to say.
Well, it goes, "Thank you.
What would I do without you?"
And like that, you know.
Oh. We forgot one teeny, tiny detail.
A paintbrush.
Oh. What about this one?
Now I know my eyes are going.
I could swear this used to be a hairbrush.
I don't understand.
[Hobie] Well, what are you
waiting for? Dip in.
[gasps]
How'd you do that?
I don't know.
I was thinking of the blue sky
and there it was.
Whoa.
This time I was thinking
of the grass in the village.
You don't even need paint.
See? I could have had more berries.
[Penelope] It's... It's...
[Hobie] Not bad.
Show us all the places you went.
I want to see 'em all.
Here's the baker's shop
and the main square
and a garden outside the castle.
Where? Where?
[Hobie] Hey! [grunts]
[both gasp]
Hobie.
Oh, I thought I was a goner.
Well, twist my tail.
[chirping]
I have a good feeling about this.
Are you crazy?
You could wind up a blob of paint.
That's better than being a prisoner.
[Stefan] Is that you?
I've been looking everywhere.
I've been... Well, it's a long story.
I hoped you might come back here.
I realized I don't even know your name.
Rapunzel.
Rapunzel.
My name...
Please, don't tell me.
Why not?
It's better I don't know.
You're full of surprises.
Can you help me find the maker
of this brush?
"Love, Mother and Father."
Don't your parents know?
I haven't seen my parents
since I was a baby.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm hoping whoever made this brush
might know who they are.
Well, I'd say we start
with the silversmith.
-Oh, Your High...
-[mouthing]
Hi, hi, hi. Hello.
How are you?
What can I do for you, uh, gentlefolk?
I was wondering, sir,
if you might recognize this?
Yes, I do.
Ooh. Look at the details. Very fine work.
You made it?
Oh, no, not me. My brother.
That's wonderful. May I speak with him?
Oh, I'm afraid not.
I haven't spoken with him myself in years.
Why not?
Uh, the feud, I'm afraid.
He lives in Wilhelm's kingdom.
Can't you visit him there?
Uh...
Nobody has gone back and forth between
the kingdoms since the feud started.
You must miss him.
[sighs] More than I can say, milady.
More than I can say.
[Penelope] Do you think
she's really there?
Your guess is as good as mine.
Oh, I miss her already.
Yeah, yeah, don't get all blubbery on me.
[exclaims] Big, bad Gothel on the horizon.
[gasps] What're we gonna do?
If Gothel finds out Rapunzel's gone,
who knows what she'll do to my father.
Nothing more than he deserves.
Hobie, come on, this is serious.
We have to get Rapunzel back.
In three minutes?
Oh, that's how long it'll take
for Gothel to get here.
I have to do something. My father!
Okay, here's the plan.
I'll stall Gothel and you find Rapunzel.
Great. You stall, I'll go. I like it.
Except for one thing.
I'm going to become ferret food?
No. I can't fly over the magic wall.
And I don't even know
where the village is.
How can I find her?
I mean, she went somewhere through there.
There's your answer.
Me?
Go in the painting, too?
As in, me?
I'm sorry you didn't
find out more about your parents.
I'm not giving up.
Good.
So, uh...
I was wondering if... well...
Here.
"You are herewith
invited to the masked ball
in honor of the Prince's birthday."
It's tonight.
I would've given it to you sooner,
but you're hard to find.
You must be pretty important
if you're invited to the Prince's ball.
Oh, I don't know about that.
Will you come?
I'd love to.
It's just, I've never been
to a masked ball.
What's it like?
Well, see for yourself tonight.
I'll pick you up at 7:00 in my carriage.
No! No, I'll meet you there.
So mysterious.
All right. I guess I'll be able
to recognize you behind a mask.
Oh, you think so?
Your hair. It's a beautiful giveaway.
Hugo, come at once.
[exclaims]
Hurry up, hurry up.
I'm going, I'm going!
-Wait.
-[grunts]
What am I doing?
Move!
[exclaiming]
[gasps]
I made it. I actually made it.
-Stand back.
-Wait. She's my friend.
Watch it with that thing.
Somebody could get seriously hurt.
You're friends with a... a dragon?
Hey, the name's Penelope, bucko.
You have to come with me, Rapunzel.
Gothel's coming.
Um, I'll just be a minute.
What's wrong?
You must come back. Please.
When Gothel finds out you're gone,
who knows what she'll do to my father.
I have to go. I'll see you tonight.
I'll explain everything.
I'll be looking for you.
[screams]
[grunts]
Oh. That's gonna do wonders
for my back. [gasps]
Oh, wait, your ladyship, wait.
Please, I need, uh...
You see, I gotta have...
What I'm needing is...
What am I saying? What am I saying?
Spit it out, rabbit.
My sciatica. It's killing me.
Oh, I can barely hop. It's a miracle
I can even get around at all.
Let me tell you, there's nothing
more pathetic than a hop-less rabbit.
Oh, please.
I need a tonic to cure me.
Oh, it hurts! Oh, the pain... Really.
[exclaims]
How are we going to get back in time?
[both] Paintbrush.
I'll come back and clean it up later.
No, no, no. Not yet. Let's... let's talk.
We don't talk enough.
You know, like the good old days.
You're useless.
Give him to me. [moans]
I'll leave you the lucky rabbit's feet.
These? Oh, no, no,
you don't want these. Oh, no.
I come from a long line
of unlucky rabbits, you know. Trust me.
I mean, look at these feet.
Corns, bunions, ingrowing toenails,
a real mess.
[screaming]
[thuds]
[groans, gulps]
[Rapunzel] I hope this works.
So, Hugo, your daughter
is with Rapunzel once again.
Penelope isn't doing anything wrong.
I guess a foolish, scared little dragon
isn't much to worry about.
[grunts]
So, Rapunzel.
I assume your memory has improved?
Are you ready to tell me who you met?
But I'm telling you, I don't know.
[scoffs] Fine.
Rot here for all I care.
I would watch that daughter of yours.
She's a little too friendly for my taste.
Yes, mistress.
[Penelope sighs]
You saved my father.
For now.
But I can't stay.
We all have to go.
I'm going to leave tonight.
And you have to convince
your father to go, too.
Somewhere where Gothel can't find you.
I've been thinking, Father,
about my birthday.
Yes?
I would like permission
to invite King Wilhelm.
What? Are you mad?
Maybe. But lately I've been thinking.
This feud has gone on
as long as I can remember.
Families have been separated,
brother from brother.
Stefan, King Wilhelm is our sworn enemy.
And it will always be that way
unless we try to change it.
Someone has to make
the first move to forgive.
No. Impossible!
When you're older, you'll understand.
I don't think this dress
is right for a masked ball.
Maybe we could do it up.
[Hobie] Mmm.
[Rapunzel] Hmm.
I wonder...
Ooh. Go ahead, try it on.
What do you think?
Beautiful.
Mmm.
I think it's too simple.
[Penelope] Then get busy
and paint another one.
[gasps]
[exclaims] It's a bit much.
Hmm.
How about this one?
Definitely ahead of its time.
Yes. Yes, I think so.
This is the one.
You're beautiful, Rapunzel.
[Penelope] No, no, no.
Gorgeous. No, magnificent.
Absolutely lovely.
-Outrageous!
-[Otto grunts]
It is, isn't it?
All these years, after all I've planned.
It must be that boy she met.
Who else?
I refuse to let a lovesick
young fool ruin everything.
Any specific plans,
or just general pain and anguish?
Pain, anguish and perhaps a trim.
I guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
[Hobie] Really?
Whoever heard of going
to a masked ball without a mask?
You made this for me?
Oh. Do you see anyone else here
dressed for a ball?
[wings flapping]
[gasps] Uh-oh, it's...
Look at that.
You do look lovely in your
party clothes, Rapunzel.
It's just your hair.
It's not quite right.
[Hobie gasps]
No. [gasps]
No.
Now, now, it's only hair.
You are the lowest, meanest, nastiest...
Otto, he's all yours.
[snarling]
No. Don't hurt him.
It's me you want. But why?
I still don't understand.
There's magic around this.
[both gasp]
Oh.
And you two.
You're mixed up in this somehow. Out!
Out!
[grunting]
What an oaf.
Yike!
[gasps]
[Rapunzel screams]
No!
Hugo, come here.
One more chance, Rapunzel.
Who is the boy? Tell me his name.
I don't know.
Then live with your lies. Forever!
Tower, tower, do your part.
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
Note that as these words are spoken,
this fearsome spell can never be broken.
[evil laughter]
Hugo, you disappoint me.
Your daughter is a disgrace.
More loyal to her friends
than to her mistress.
She's still young, she'll learn.
Or maybe her father
doesn't know where his loyalties lie.
What are you doing?
Ensuring I have time
to deal with you later.
Right now, I'm planning a little dance
with Rapunzel's mysterious suitor.
[Otto laughs]
No! No!
We will attack from the west wall.
As you wish, King Wilhelm.
I have prepared our troops.
I will never forgive him
for what he's done.
Frederick will pay, once and for all.
[music playing]
[all chattering]
[Katrina] Oh. Don't you just love it?
[sighs]
Everything is so beautiful.
I'd rather read a good book.
Where's Stefan?
Um... over there.
Son, why aren't you out dancing?
I'm waiting for someone.
Mmm. And what makes this girl so special?
Oh, she likes me, not my crown.
She doesn't even know I'm the Prince.
I'd like to meet her.
[grunting]
[Penelope] Father.
I expected more from you.
You don't understand.
Rapunzel helped save...
Look at me.
I'm chained like a common dog
because of you and your friend.
Yes, I hope so.
Rapunzel?
Rapunzel.
Wait.
Where are we going?
Ah, the masked lady finally stops.
Don't I please you, Prince Stefan?
I don't understand.
-I thought you were...
-Rapunzel.
Yes, so I gather.
Unfortunately, she's not coming.
[laughs]
Mmm.
Her hair.
Who are you?
I'm the one who's going to teach you
not to meddle with my plans.
[grunts]
Zap him. Fry him. Puree him.
[grunting]
He won't listen to me.
You're gonna let
a little thing like that stop you?
I wish Rapunzel were here.
Well, if she were here,
what would she tell you?
That she loves me.
So...
Father, please.
I have to tell you something.
No. Nothing more from you.
I... I'm going to tell you anyway.
Rapunzel saved your life
and you didn't even know it.
She was free and she came back here
because I asked her to.
What?
She came back
so Gothel wouldn't destroy you.
Hmm.
It's true.
We have to help her escape from the tower.
Please, Father, please.
I... I didn't know.
[grunting]
I wish we could help her,
but it's impossible.
I've served under Gothel for many years
and her spells are unbreakable.
I won't give up.
A mighty thought.
Rapunzel doesn't deserve
to be trapped like this.
Mmm. Penelope, the spell
only traps a prisoner with a lying heart.
But Rapunzel isn't a liar.
[gasps]
If that is so...
Rapunzel. Rapunzel.
You haven't been lying to Gothel,
so my father thinks
Gothel's spell can't stop you.
What did Gothel say?
"Never release your prisoner..."
[both] "With a lying heart."
Hugo may be right.
Okay. Okay.
[Hobie] Oh, I can't look.
[exhales]
Here we go.
Thank you, Hugo.
I understand it is I who must thank you.
We have to get to the ball. But how?
[chain rattling]
[gulps]
But it's still so high.
Penelope, do you believe
a mighty dragon can fly over the wall?
Of course.
Then believe you can do it.
For you are a mighty dragon.
Me?
What makes might?
It is more than power.
It is also courage and loyalty.
You have never swerved
in your devotion to your friend,
no matter the danger.
I see now that you truly are
a mighty dragon, Penelope.
And I am proud of you.
[sniffling] Oh.
Now, go.
What about you?
Don't worry, I'll be fine.
Now, go. Go!
Coming, Hobie?
Oh. Watch the bumps.
I get queasy easy, you know.
You can do it, Penelope.
I am a mighty dragon.
I am a mighty dragon.
[panting]
It's so beautiful up here.
I knew you could do it.
Please be all right. We're coming.
[grunts]
Hey. This is not funny.
[laughing]
Nobody hurts my brother. Nobody.
-Take that.
-Get her, Melody. Get her.
[grunting] Mistress.
I could use a little help here.
To think some people
actually adore children.
They're out of their minds.
[screaming]
Uh-oh.
Tommy.
[gasps] I look terrible.
And it's a formal occasion.
[grunting]
Wilhelm? Guards! Guards!
Save your breath, Frederick.
[both grunting]
Wilhelm?
Surrender, Frederick.
No, Father.
[both grunting]
[both exclaiming]
So again, we meet at a ball.
Gothel? Is that you?
What are you doing here?
I came to clean up some loose ends.
You know her? Who is she?
I knew her once long ago. We were friends.
Friends? Friends?
You loved me. I know you did.
No, Gothel. I never loved you.
And for that, you will pay once again.
[grunts]
Pay again? What are you talking about?
Let me ask you, Frederick.
You hate this man.
Why?
He attacked my kingdom without cause.
You stole my daughter.
No. For the 1,000th time,
I never stole her.
No, I did.
What?
She would've been
my daughter if you had married me.
I simply took what was mine.
You took Rapunzel?
Where is she, Gothel?
Tell me. You monster!
What does it matter?
[screaming]
You'll never see her again.
[laughs]
My beautiful little girl.
[whispers] I've seen her.
Where? When?
Now do you realize
what a fool you were, Wilhelm?
You could have had so much.
You should have loved me.
You don't know what love is, Gothel.
I'm finished with you. All of you.
No. No more.
[Gothel] It can't be.
Impossible.
You kept me locked up
my whole life because you hated my father?
He deserved to suffer as I did.
No. No more suffering,
Gothel, for anybody.
My, my.
You think you can stop me?
Maybe not alone.
But with the help of a mighty dragon.
Mighty dragon?
[laughs]
I see a sniveling goose.
Ooh, so scary. Did you bring
your rabbit friend along, too?
Because I'm ready for an appetizer.
Fire away, Penelope.
[inhales deeply]
[exclaims]
I was just leaving.
[laughing]
You're number one in my book, girl.
-Rapunzel, you and your friends...
-[gasps]
...won't live to see the next sunrise.
[gasps]
Run, Rapunzel. Go!
Hurry, you know where.
[grunts]
Please, Gothel, we can all start over.
I forgive you for all those years.
No more hatred. Please.
And be made a fool of?
Never!
[laughing]
-[Rapunzel] Now.
-[gasps]
Mistress, will you wait for me?
[exclaiming]
[Gothel] What? It can't be.
[groans]
Magic spell upon the tower,
I command you to lose your power.
[gasps]
No!
Hugo. Hugo.
Get me out of here.
I can't.
You said one with a lying heart
would be imprisoned forever.
Rapunzel never lied. But you, Gothel...
[Gothel echoing] Never release
your prisoner with a lying heart.
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
No. No!
Never release your prisoner
with a lying heart.
I have to find Rapunzel.
[footsteps approaching]
Are you all right?
I am now.
Rapunzel?
Father?
I thought you were gone forever.
All those years, I thought I was alone.
Your mother and I
have never stopped thinking about you.
Our love is as constant...
[both] ...as the stars above.
I don't know where to begin, Frederick.
I've wronged you all these years.
I'm glad that Rapunzel is safe.
Hmm.
I hope someday you can find it
in your heart to forgive me.
[sighs]
Gee.
That's beautiful.
Hey, I call 'em as I see 'em.
[Barbie] With the two kingdoms reunited,
-peace returned to the land.
-[bells tolling]
And it wasn't long
before the magical day came
when Rapunzel married Prince Stefan.
Everyone was there.
[all applauding]
Then, Rapunzel and Stefan
moved into their own palace.
[Kelly] But what about Hobie?
And Penelope? Did they come, too?
[snoring]
[Barbie] Hobie made out just fine,
sleeping on the cushiest pillow
in the palace.
And Penelope
and her father lived there, too.
[inhales deeply]
In the winter, they kept the castle warm.
[Kelly] Whatever happened to Gothel?
[Barbie] Oh, she dedicated
the rest of her days
to making Otto's life miserable.
[Gothel] Otto. Otto!
I said six and a half minutes.
This tea was obviously...
[mimicking Gothel] Otto. Otto.
Blah, blah, blah. Six and a half minutes.
-[Gothel] Where are my biscuits?
-Leave to steep for 11 minutes.
Where are my biscuits?
And blah, blah, blah.
Coming, mistress.
-[crashing]
-[Otto screams]
[Barbie] And Rapunzel and Stefan
lived happily ever after.
Wow. I wish I had a magic paintbrush,
like Rapunzel.
But you do.
The magic comes from here.
You're right.
You know what, Barbie?
I know Rapunzel's secret.
You do?
She painted what she dreamed.
When you do that, you never go wrong.
