I'm warming up for the Challenge of the Brave this morning.
It's just a competition to find the toughest warrior in all of Corona.
No big deal.
Ooh! Sounds exciting.
Where can I sign up? Yeah, like I said, no big Oh, sorry, what? - I wanna sign up! - You mean compete? Let's do it together! - Yeah, do it! - That would be great! - Do it! - You could be princess, and the most "reveredest" warrior! Aw.
(laughs) That would be fun.
But I'm not so sure that's the best idea.
I'm brave.
And I'm always up for a challenge.
But the the thing is, the challenge is by invitation only, so you can't do it.
Oh, man, ugh! Rules are rules.
- (hoots) - Oh.
Okay.
But you can always count on me to cheer you on.

Some say he's the meanest, most ruthless fighter the world has even seen! Wreck Marauder! (crowd cheering) (bees buzzing) (screaming) (screams, grunts) (whimpers) - Boo! (cackles) - (screaming) (crowd gasps) Whose house is this? This is Wreck's house! (growls) (crowd groans) Yeah! That's my boy right there! Wreck Marauder! I have seen that guy fight all over the world.
He's undefeated! Challenge of the Brave - Challenge of the Brave - (chittering) Everybody, come on! All right, the beard of bees lady! (bees buzzing) Oh, yeah! How about these seats, huh? If I were any closer to the action, they'd be scraping my face off of Wreck Marauder's knuckles! (horn blaring) Uh, sir? Some of the competitors are requesting we move you to a new seat.
Oh, you see that? Moving this super fan to the super fan section.
Ha! I wish I could say this has been fun, but I respect you all too much to lie to your faces.
She's just here 'cause she's Rapunzel's lady in waitin'.
(laughing) Hi! Hello! Good morning! How are you? Ooh! Wow! Your teeth are so sharp! (gasps) Hook Foot! Why so mad? Just do a dance, and give that smile a second chance.
(laughs) Probably not the best place for hugs, Raps.
What are you doing down here? This is for competitors only.
I came to wish you luck! Thanks, but I don't need luck.
I need to use this time to get inside the competition's head.
You know, psyche 'em out with some trash talk.
Trash talk? Like talk about garbage, literally? What? No, that's not even close.
(sighs) Watch this.
Hey, you! You do realize when they put the call up for the strongest warriors, they weren't talking about breath.
Right? (belches) (gags) Why don't you go back to the castle, lady-in-waiting? - (guffaws) - Well, that wasn't very nice, Cass.
Yeah.
That's the point.
All right.
I'll give it a shot.
I guess.
Excuse me, you? Yeah, you.
Uh-huh.
Prepare to be talked trash to.
Look at you with those decorative tattoos.
Oh, wow.
Sorry.
I'm sorry, but those are amazing.
And did you see the lettering on "Skull Kickr"? Wow.
What about it? Ah.
It's lovely.
Yeah, well, it it was my mother's name.
Your mom is really special to you, isn't she? Well, I think she'd be really proud of the menacing goon you've become.
(crying) I'm gonna go see my mom! (growling) Whoa! Look at you! You're a big guy, aren't you? Come on, Rapunzel.
What do we have here? No one told me they were letting table scraps compete.
- (laughs) - Scraps? You're the one that's gonna walk out of this in pieces.
I look forward to makin' everyone who ever loved you cry their eyes out.
(chuckles) Whoa! Listen, mister, trash talk is one thing, but that was just mean.
- Rapunzel - Uh, Cassandra has feelings, - you know? - Aw, poor little baby.
- (chuckles) - And another thing, you should be - Okay.
That'll do, Rapunzel.
- (guffawing) Listen.
I have to warm up, so why don't you find Eugene in the stands? You can cheer me on from there.
Way back there.
Yeah.
Yeah, sure, okay.
I got it.
I got it.
You need to focus.
No distractions.
- Oh! Sorry.
I forgot a good luck hug! - (grunts) Oh, right.
It's not a place for hugging, I'm sorry.
Good luck! (guffawing) Ladies and gentlemen, take your seats! It's time to meet today's contestants! Give it up for Razorblade McDoom! (growling) The Razor's gonna carve ya like a turkey! Ha! McDoom! More like McDone For! (laughing) Am I right? (panting) Hey, Blondie, you got the deluxe seats, too, huh? You know, they put you up here so you can see all the action.
Really? It's kind of far.
Next up, the unstoppable Wreck Marauder! (growling) Wreck has three words for you! You're gonna get wrecked! Hey.
If I didn't know any better, I'd swear that guy down there looks just like Cassandra? That is Cassandra! Wow! I've never seen Cass so nervous.
- Ooh - I guess I can't blame her.
I mean, she worked so hard to get invited to this competition.
Invited? No, you don't need an invitation to compete.
You just have to be dumb enough to do it.
Like Cassandra.
Ha-ha! Wooo! Anyone can compete? We can do this together! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Oh oh oh, hey, uh, Blondie, if you're making a snack run, I'm all about the popcorn! And finally, the Iron Handmaiden, Caaasan Wow.

This is gonna be so much fun! Oh, Blondie, what have you done? Did I not bring enough of the popcorn? Good news, Cassandra.
We can compete together! Isn't that great? - Eeee! - That is so great! Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the first event! The Gauntlet! (screams) - (clattering) - (audience cheering) You're sure you wanna do this? Sure do! Next up for The Gauntlet, Cassandra! (panting) Excuse me.
Comin' through.
Emergency.
Naive princess making horrible life decision.
Pardon me.
What's that supposed to be? It's a knot as in you're knot going to win.
(laughs) It's a thinker.
Woo! Go, Cass! Way to go, Cassandra! Woo-hoo! Next up, Princess Rapunzel! (rapidly) Please don't get smashed with a hammer.
Please don't get smashed with a hammer (humming) (cheering) Oh, yeah! (laughs) That's my girlfriend right there! What? I wasn't worried, she's got this.
Wooo! Yay, Rapunzel! Wooo! (cheering) Cassandra, did you see that? I told you I could handle myself.
Nice dance, Rapunzel.
Uh, thanks? Not sure that routine will do much good against Wreck in the Dead Man's Circle.
But, hey, maybe you'll get lucky again.
That wasn't luck.
Announcer: Challengers! Prepare for the next event! Yes! (cheering) (horn blaring) Yeah! (horn blares) (cheering) (horn blaring) Wow! (Rapunzel laughs) Do you even know the rules? Aren't shoes required for the Log Roll? Ugh, somebody check the Rulebook of the Brave! Guys! Am I the only one that has a problem with this? The princess is making a mockery of this competition! Hey, it's okay, kid.
When you're mad, do a dance! - Give that smile a se - Oh, go eat a turkey leg, Hook! Okay, listen, Rapunzel, this has gone far enough.
Let's call it a day.
Ha-ha.
I will call it a day the day I won the championship.
Boom! Trash talk! Let's see where you land after the Dead Man's Circle.
Yeah, okay, yeah.
We'll totally see where we land after the Dead Man's Circle.
And what is the Dead Man's Circle? It's the final event.
And believe me, your little dances won't save you this time.
This is awkward.
I am beginning to question their definition of VIP seating.
(grunts) Hello, my good man.
I'd like to forgo my VIP seat and re-enter the arena.
Your ticket, please? Seriously? Oh! Oh oh! It's in my wallet.
Which I left inside the arena.
Well, then you have to buy another ticket.
But because my money is also in my wallet, which is still inside the arena No money, no ticket, no entry.
(children laughing) Announcer: Time for the final event! The Dead Man's Circle! Each warrior will battle to the finish, using the weapon of their choice! Get your princess wigs right here! Wow, Rapunzel's really killin' in there, huh? I mean, these things are sellin' like hotcakes! You know what? This one's on the house.
Hey, you dropped the One golden-haired wig for you! Okay, one ticket, please.
I got one ticket.
Anybody need a ticket? I need a ticket! Then let the bargaining begin.
(cheering) Hey, I I know today's been weird.
I just I wanted to I don't know, I guess uh, I just wanted to say good luck.
Right, right.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
No hugging, gotta remember that.
- Raps, I just wanna - It's now time for the no-holds-barred - elimination round! - (cheering) Remember folks, once someone steps outside the ring, they are out! The last one standing is our champion! (cheering) - I just wanna say - Are you ready for this? 'Cause it's gonna get ugly in here.
Ready! Set! Battle! Oh, w wait wait wait! Has anyone seen a frying pan? Whoa! Ha! (laughs) Looks like I got the drop on you! Yee-uhh! Is that all you got? (grunting) - You fools take on Wreck! - (clears throat) (growling) (grunts) (crowd gasps) Ohhh! (bell rings) (bell rings twice) Announcer: Wow, what a poetic move by Rapunzel! Crowd (chanting): Rapunzel! Rapunzel! Rapunzel! Rapunzel! That chirpy little hairball is mine! Not if I get to her first! (grunts) Hey, Wreck! Stick around.
Uh, that was close.
Well, looks like it's just you and me.
Ooh aah! That all you got? Cass, what's gotten into you? (Wreck laughing) Hey! Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa! Wait, stop! We're supposed to be friends! A friend wouldn't be so oblivious, Rapunzel.
You have no idea what this contest means to me.
I mean, you're a princess, you've got nothing to prove.
To you, this was just a fun way to blow off a Saturday, but to me, it was a chance to show everyone that I am more than just your lady-in-waiting.
And just when I thought I might get even the slightest bit of respect.
Never mind.
Respect? Cassandra, I respect you more than you could possibly imagine.
I mean, I I look up to you.
Why do you think I wanted to enter this thing in the first place? You are my friend, and as your friend, ahh I should've realized how important this was to you.
I'm so so sorry.
(cheering) (growling) Look out! (growling) (groans) (shouting) (crowd gasps) - (bell rings) - Hey, Wreck! Looks like I'm not not going to win! Heh it's a thinker! (cheering) (bell rings) (crowd groaning) (cheering) Congratulations.
I didn't mean for this to happen, Cass.
I just thought it would be fun to compete.
(sighs) Doesn't matter.
I should've realized how important this all was to you.
I don't think I'm the one who deserves this.
(cheering) Yay, Cassandra! Woo hoo! Haha! Good job! What, no hug? How do you sleep at night, Shorty? Challenge of the Brave, here I come! Shorty, I want my money back! (theme music playing) Now I got my eyes open and wide My heart burnin' like fire Feels like I'm so alive I'm never goin' back Whatever I want now I'm gonna chase Who I am I can't contain it I'm not gonna hold it in 'Cause there's more of me to give Oh yeah There's more of me to give
