Beginings

1 (theme song playing) I got the wind in my hair and a fire within 'Cause there's something beginning I got a mystery to solve and excitement to spare That beautiful breeze blowing through I'm ready to follow it who knows where And I'll get there, I swear With the wind in my hair (owl hooting) (hoot) ENCHANTED GIRL: I sense your guilt, Cassandra.
After all, Rapunzel was your friend, and you betrayed her.
But, one could argue that she deserved it.
- Maybe.
- Oh, yes.
More than you know, for she has already taken a piece of your newfound power.
(birds singing) It's just on the other side.
Almost there.
- Just a little farther.
- (moths flapping) (singing): Da da da da! Secret passage! (rats squeaking) Uh, what does this have to do with being a lady-in-waiting? Well, you never know when you might need to sneak outta the castle, right? Plus, it's so much fun down here.
- (creature crawling) - Oh my.
Is that a millipede? Oh! It's a centipede, actually.
- (gasp) - But, you you were only off by a few hundred pedes.
(squeak) Oh! Whoa! Whoa.
Oh, Sunshine! There you are.
Hey, I'm trying a new hair product today.
Tell me, honestly, too stiff or just bouncy enough? Oh! Hey, get a load of this.
Eugene's preening again.
Huh? Huh? Do you wanna, uh, zing him with some sort of witty one-liner? Uh I should go hem something.
Oh.
Okay.
Well (sigh) thank you (chuckle) for all your help today.
What a dud.
Okay, sorry.
That was harsh.
I didn't mean that.
Still, I don't think it's gonna work out.
This is the fifth handmaiden we've tried out.
I mean, don't you think maybe you're expecting your new lady-in-waiting to be someone she's not? I am not expecting her to be Cassandra.
I never said that.
Well good, because she's gone and I'm over it.
Well then, maybe you need to give the dud a little more time.
You and Cass took a little while to warm up to each other, didn't you? No Cass and I pretty much got along right away.
I can't stand her.
I want out.
No, you're not getting reassigned.
Look, being a lady-in-waiting is one thing, but I did not sign up for this.
CROWLEY: Cry me a river.
Listen, unless somehow a better job falls into your lap, you're stuck with the princess.
Mrs.
Crowley, you don't understand.
It's not just the painting.
It's the constant singing, and the ventriloquism, and (rattling) (squeaking) - (all screaming) - (sigh) Come on.
It's just a rat.
(indistinct shouting) NIGEL: Get away! Get back beneath the castle! Let's go, little guy.
(squeaking) See that, Pascal? I told you she had a good heart.
We're gonna be best friends yet.
Whoa! Hi! (sigh) Ta-da! (squeak) Why? I can't help but feel like you and I aren't exactly hitting it off? I mean, you are a great lady-in-waiting, but why can't we be great friends, huh? Hence, ta-da! Okay, not a fruit fan.
Now, I know you're gonna love this one.
- (squeak) - RAPUNZEL: Hm? What about it? - It's you and me.
We're - Smiling.
Yeah.
There is no way that is going in my room.
(sad squeak) See? Told you we shouldn't have made it so big.
(squeak) Why is it so important to you Oh, right there on the temples to be friends with Cassandra anyway? Because she's (sigh) real.
Eugene, I spent 18 years of my life with someone who lied to my face.
And here's Cassandra.
Sure, yes, she may be a little rough around the edges, but she's forthright and honest and just We're still talking about Cassandra, right? Okay, okay.
Oh, that feels great, but could you give us a second? Thank you.
(sigh) What about a bonding activity? You know what, my friends and I used to bond over the jobs we pulled.
(laughing) Oh, man! - This one time, we stole - Ahem.
The show with our dance number! No joke! (chuckle) It, it was Uh, soft shoe! It brought the crowd to tears.
I can do a little bit for you if you'd like.
You a fan of the soft Zapato? Mm-hmm.
Rapunzel, an official princess event is upon us.
The Contest of the Crowns.
Contest of the Crowns? Are you kidding?! That's great! I can't believe it! The Contest of the Crowns! The Contest of the Cro What is the Contest of the Crowns? It's a friendly competition between the princesses of the seven kingdoms.
What are we competing in? Well, we don't know yet.
You see, it's up to each queen to select an event.
And the most important part, you'll need a partner for the competition.
Oh a partner, huh? Are you sure you don't wanna ask somebody else to be your partner? Eugene? Old Lady Crowley? That fern? Cass, this is a great opportunity to become better friends! Listen, I have my job to do, and you have yours.
We can be partners, if you want, but a lady-in-waiting and a princess becoming friends? (laugh) That's like a one-in-a-million chance.
Wow.
Did you hear that, Pascal? One in a million? (squeaking) I know.
It means there's a chance! Welcome, one and all, to the Contest of the Crowns! The queens of all Seven Kingdoms have selected seven spectacular challenges, but only the top two teams will reach the final event, and have the chance to have their names engraved for eternity on the hallowed Contest of the Crowns trophy.
Competitors, your time is about to begin! - (crowd cheering) - This is so exciting! I have never seen so many princesses from so many places before.
Koto, Neserdnia, Bayangor, Galcrest, Pittsford (gasp) Ingvarr.
(grinding) Whoa.
We are gonna have so much fun together.
Just like friends do! I even made us, ahem, wait for it Spirit bracelets! (laughter) PRINCESS: Spirit bracelets Now, let's go get 'em! Come on, bring it in! Ah, ah, ah, personal space.
Air hugs only.
Check.
(scoffs) Our first event has been chosen by the queen of Koto.
Ballroom dancing in the traditional Kotoan style.
- (applause) - (classical music playing) (sigh) Ooh, fancy.
You mean unbearably stuffy? ANNOUNCER: Contestants, please take the floor.
(sigh) I'm totally gonna respect your personal space thing after this.
I promise.
Ugh, you were right, Cass.
This is stuffy.
Let's say we make this a little more exciting, huh? Rapunzel, wait! What are you (squeaking) (playing jazzy flute) (banging drums) Do you wanna lose this competition? (gasp, scoff) - (crowd gasping) - (continues playing) How embarrassing.
Stop that.
Don't Give me Would you just Give me that! (crowd gasps) (blowing air) Oops.
- At least it was fun.
- Fun? Yeah, that was real fun.
West corridor at dusk.
The Queen of Ingvarr would like to have a word.
Don't be late.
Uh, excuse me? Your Majesty? Your daughter said to meet you in the West Corridor - (blade scraping) - (grunt) (swords clashing) You have a fighter's spirit.
What do you know of my homeland? That it's a kingdom of warrior women.
And how would you like to join that army? My challenge is the final event.
Should you triumph, there may be a place for you in my battalion.
A chance at a real future for you.
Wow.
I-I mean, thank you.
Not so fast.
Only the top two teams can get to my event, so you'll have to do well in all the others.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I'll see you there.
Oh! (squeaking) Rapunzel! (chuckle) Uh, what I said earlier I was just frustrated.
(happy squeak) These games aren't that bad.
I, uh, I was actually thinking it'd be pretty great if we win.
Really? Cass! By the time we're done, we are going to be finishing each other's I'm not saying sentences.
But, you did! (laughing) Go team! ANNOUNCER: A princess must identify the correct cutlery.
Which fork is the oyster fork? Okay, Rapunzel.
Do not pick up a fork unless you're absolutely sure - (humming) - Cut it out! Incorrect! - No! These aren't ugh! - (snaps fingers) (birds chirping) ANNOUNCER: Befriending woodland creatures is a must for the modern princess.
Whoever emerges from the forest with the most critters wins.
(whistling) (growling, snarling) - (crowd screaming) - (animals chattering) (indistinct shouting) ANNOUNCER: I'm too pretty to be a snack! ANNOUNCER: Today's final event, Steed Capering, is off to a smashing start, with the first five teams putting in solid performances.
Yes, Team Ingvarr is looking perfectly in sync.
Team Corona, please take your mark.
Steed Capering was invented in Corona.
Plus, we've got Max on our side.
We should be able to nail this one.
(crowd cheering) (nickering) Just remember, winners focus on winning.
I know we didn't have the best luck with this last time - Rapunzel, don't you dare - But Pascal, no! (both playing jazzy music) (neigh) (playing continues) (crowd cheering) (startled whinny) Oh! (laughter) - Cassandra, let me help - Just leave it, Rapunzel! You've already done enough damage.
(crowd reacting) - (nickering) - I, um, I, uh I didn't mean to What is this? I couldn't help but feel like we've been a bit out of sync, so I figured what better way for two friends to reconnect than a sleepover! Why can't you understand? We are not friends! I don't like dumb dance moves, or spirit bracelets, or sleepovers! My idea of having fun is not to have fun.
- Good night.
- You're right.
I was pushing too hard.
Besides Pascal, I haven't made any friends in 18 whole years, so maybe I don't know how.
I'll just leave you alone.
But this is my roo (sigh) (squeaking) CASSANDRA: (sigh) You know I'm probably not that good at making friends either.
I grew up with the Captain of the Guards for a father.
He's not big on warm and fuzzy.
(chuckle) I guess I, uh, I got a lot to learn about being a friend.
Maybe Maybe we could learn together? Maybe I won't try so hard to be friends? And I guess I could try harder not to not be your friend.
Hey, what do you say you help me clean my room, huh? Some weird princess made a mess of Oof! (laughter) ANNOUNCER: Six teams remain in the Embroider-a-thon! Ow! (snip) ANNOUNCER: A princess must keep her composure during the Wild Carriage! (yelling) (creaking) (applause) ANNOUNCER: And who will win the Great Cake Bake-off? (crowd gasping) (applause) (drum roll) And the two teams progressing to the finals - will be Ingvarr - (applause) and, after a startling comeback, Corona! (applause) Yes! (laugh) Oh, sorry.
Personal space.
Eh, what's a little invasion of personal space between friends, huh? ANNOUNCER: In a matter of moments, the top two teams will go head-to-head in the final event, - Capture the Flag! - (fanfare playing) Cass, I just wanted to say thank you for being my partner.
Ah, good luck, Cassandra! I have a feeling Ingvarr will be welcoming a new soldier soon.
New soldier? (chuckle) What is she talking about, Cass? Uh (sigh) - Nothing.
- Didn't she tell you? I've offered her a position in my army, if she does well in this competition.
After all, like you said, Cassandra, you're dissatisfied with your current station, aren't you? Why didn't you tell me you were unhappy? I'm not unhappy.
It's just that this is a great opportunity for me.
She offered me a place in her battalion, if I prove myself in the finals.
I mean, how could I turn that down? So, all this time, I thought we were actually having fun We were having fun.
- You were just using me.
- Rapunzel, I ANNOUNCER: Contestants, get ready! Let's just win this thing so you can take advantage of this great opportunity.
Maybe that would be better for both of us.
Yeah, maybe it would.
ANNOUNCER: It's the moment you've all been waiting for! The conclusion of the most thrilling Contest of the Crowns! Brought to us by the Queen of Ingvarr - (crowd cheering) - it's the final event! Capture the Flag! From the ferocious, fanged fury of (ground rumbling) of (rumbling) of (flames roaring) of (mechanical whirring) The Iron Lion! (roaring) The first team to grab the flag wins.
Good luck! On your marks - get set - (growling) On my command, right paw attack.
(blows horn) Now.
(creaking, smack) Rapunzel! (roar) (yelling) (growling) Rapunzel! You okay? Don't worry about me.
Winners focus on winning, remember? (all yelling) It's like it's always two steps ahead of us.
(roar) Then, let's make this a little more exciting.
Wow.
(roar) (stamping) (roar) - What was that? - There! - (footsteps) - (panting) Sister, now's our chance.
Gotcha! (grunt) (grunting) (creaking, stamp) (laugh) RAPUNZEL: Go, Cass! Keep going! Get the flag! Get the flag.
(roaring) (crowd cheering) Huh? (panting) Cass! What are you doing? You have to go get that flag if this job means so much to you.
(creaking) There's something else that means a lot more.
(squeaking) (horn blowing) Uh-oh.
Looks like we lost.
ANNOUNCER: Your Contest of the Crowns champions! The Princesses of Ingvarr! Let's make a graceful exit.
Look, I just think with this lady-in-waiting thing, maybe no one's working out for you because you're not over Cass.
That has nothing to do with it, Eugene.
I have moved on.
(sigh) Oh, oh, hey.
Hey, blondie, it's okay.
Look, I know it's hard.
What Cass did, it's a it's a very big deal.
No, Eugene.
She could've had everything she wanted.
She had the chance to become a warrior, but she chose our friendship instead.
And I'm not giving up on her yet.
What do you mean Rapunzel stole some of my power? When Rapunzel touched the MoonStone's black rocks - (magic humming) - they gave her their protective power.
This kept the Sun-drop safe until she made her way to the Dark Kingdom.
So, that power that she took belonged to the MoonStone And the MoonStone belongs to you.
So, you see, even the power of the MoonStone is not completely yours.
Oh-oh, oh-oh Now I got my eyes open and wide My heart burnin' like fire Feels like I'm so alive I'm never going 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
