## Dialogue

    Princess Rapunzel: [after pulling Mother Gothel up the tower; out of breath] Hi. Welcome home, Mother.
    Mother Gothel: Oh, Rapunzel! How you manage to do that every single day without fail!! It looks absolutely exhausting, darling.
    Princess Rapunzel: Oh, it's nothing.
    Mother Gothel: [in a sing-song voice] Then I don't know why it takes so long! Oh, darling, I'm just teasing.
    [after seeing Flynn's wanted poster]
    Flynn Rider: No, no, no, no. This is bad. This is very, very bad. This is really bad. [shows the Stabbington brothers his poster] They just can't get my nose right!
    Stabbington Brother 1: Who cares?
    Flynn Rider: Well, it's easy for you to say. [looks at the Stabbingtons' wanted poster] You guys look amazing.
    [Flynn Rider and the Stabbington Brothers are running from the Royal Guard and are stuck in a cliff]
    Flynn Rider: Alright, okay, give me boost, and I'll pull you up.
    [The Stabbington Brothers look at each other]
    Stabbington Brother 1: [holds his hand out] Give us the satchel first.
    Flynn Rider: [stunned] What?! I just - I can't believe that after all we've been through together, you don't trust me? [the Stabbington Brothers stare at him blankly as the crickets chirping] Ouch. [hands the first Stabbington Brother the satchel]
    [The trio then make a ladder, and Flynn climbs up the cliff]
    Stabbington Brother 1: [extends his arm] Now, help us up, pretty boy.
    Flynn Rider: Sorry. [reveals the satchel] My hands are full. [Takes off]
    Stabbington Brother 1: What?! [sees that he no longer has the satchel] RIDER!!!
    [Flynn runs away, pursued by the guards and their horses]
    Captain: Retrieve that satchel with any force!
    Guards: Yes, sir!
    [After Rapunzel locks Flynn in her closet]
    Mother Gothel: Rapunzel! Let down your hair!
    Princess Rapunzel: One moment, Mother!
    Mother Gothel: I have a big surprise!
    Princess Rapunzel: Uh... I do, too!
    Gothel: Ooh, I'll bet my surprise is bigger!
    Princess Rapunzel: [to herself] I seriously doubt it!
    Mother Gothel: Oh Rapunzel, you know I hate leaving you after a fight. Especially when I've done absolutely nothing wrong.
    Princess Rapunzel: Okay, I've been thinking a lot about what you said, earlier.
    Mother Gothel: I hope you're not still talking about the stars.
    Princess Rapunzel: Floating lights, and, yes, I'm leading up to that.
    Mother Gothel: Because I really thought we dropped the issue, sweetheart.
    Princess Rapunzel: No, mother, I'm just saying, you think I'm not strong enough to handle myself out there.
    Mother Gothel: Oh darling, I know you're not strong enough to handle yourself out there.
    Princess Rapunzel: If you would just-
    Mother Gothel: [interrupting] Rapunzel, we're done talking about this.
    Princess Rapunzel: But trust me, I... know what I'm-
    Mother Gothel: Rapunzel. Rapunzel!
    Princess Rapunzel: [touches the closet knob] Oh, come on!
    Mother Gothel: [Losing control of her rage and furiously screaming at Rapunzel] ENOUGH WITH THE LIGHTS, RAPUNZEL!!!! YOU ARE NOT LEAVING THIS TOWER!!!!!!!! EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! [a shocked Rapunzel removes her hand from the closet knob. Gothel sits in the chair, calms down] Oh, great. Now I'm the bad guy.
    [Repeated lines]
    Mother Gothel: I love you very much, dear.
    Princess Rapunzel: I love you more.
    Mother Gothel: I love you most.
    [Flynn is woken up by Pascal's wet willy and finds himself tied to a chair with Rapunzel's hair]
    Flynn Rider: [to himself] Is this...hair?
    Princess Rapunzel: [hiding in the dark] Struggling...struggling is pointless!
    Flynn: Huh?!
    Princess Rapunzel: I know why you're here and I'm not afraid of you.
    Flynn Rider: What?
    Princess Rapunzel: [steps into the light] Who are you, and how did you find me?
    Flynn Rider: Uh-huh...
    Princess Rapunzel: [firmly] Who are you? And how did you find me?
    Flynn Rider: [clears throat] I know not who you are, nor how I came to find you, but may I just say.... [changes his demeanor] Hi. How ya doin'? The name's Flynn Rider. How's your day going? Huh?
    Princess Rapunzel: [scoffs] Who else knows my location, Flynn Rider? Hmm?
    Flynn Rider: Alright, Blondie.
    Princess Rapunzel: Rapunzel!
    Flynn Rider: Gesundheit. Here's the deal. I was in a situation, gallivanting through the forest, I came across your tower, and fee… Ho, oh no, where is my satchel?!
    Princess Rapunzel: [proudly] I've hidden it. Somewhere you'll never find it.
    Flynn Rider: [looks around] It's in that pot, isn't it?
    [Rapunzel smacks him with her frying pan offscreen]
    Flynn Rider: [wakes up again and notices that Pascal's giving him another wet willy] Ah!! [Pascal jumps off him] Would you stop that?!
    Princess Rapunzel: Now it's hidden where you'll never find it! So, what do you want with my hair? Cut it?
    Flynn Rider: What?
    Princess Rapunzel: Sell it?
    Flynn Rider: No!! Listen, the only thing I want to do with your hair is to get out of it! Literally!
    Princess Rapunzel: Wait, you don't want my hair?
    Flynn Rider: Why on Earth would I want your hair? Look, I was being chased, I saw a tower, I climbed it, end of story.
    Princess Rapunzel: You're telling the truth?
    Flynn Rider: Yes!
    Princess Rapunzel: Something brought you here, Flynn Rider. Call it what you will: Fate...Destiny...
    Flynn Rider: [flat] A horse.
    Princess Rapunzel: So, I have decided to trust you.
    Flynn Rider: [flat] A horrible decision, really.
    Princess Rapunzel: But trust me when I tell you this. [pulls Flynn close to her face with a glare] You can tear this tower apart brick by brick, but without my help, you will never find your precious satchel.
    Flynn Rider: [clears throat] Let me just get this straight. I take you to see the lanterns. Bring you back home. And you'll give me back my satchel?
    Princess Rapunzel: I promise. [Flynn looks at her suspiciously] And when I promise something, I never ever break that promise. [Flynn raises an eyebrow] Ever.
    [Pascal nods.]
    Flynn Rider: Alright, listen. I didn't want to have to do this, but you leave me no choice. Here comes the smolder. [puts on a pouty face, hoping to charm Rapunzel. Her stare just hardens] This is kind of an off day for me. This doesn't normally happen. [gives in] Fine! I'll take you to see the lanterns.
    Princess Rapunzel: Really? [jumps in excitement, letting go of the chair Flynn is sitting on. Flynn falls on his face] Oops.
    Flynn Rider: [weakly] You broke my smolder.
    Princess Rapunzel: [excited after finally leaving the tower] I can't believe I did this! [fearfully] I can't believe I did this. [squealing with joy] (screaming) I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID THIS! [giggles, then puts her hands on her throat] Mother would be so furious. [later, looking at a flower, optimistic] Well, that's okay. I mean, what she doesn't know won't kill her, right? [later, in a cave rocking back and forth, fearful with her heart beating in her chest] Oh, my gosh. This would kill her. [later, running through a pile of leaves and making them rain down on the irritated Flynn. Joyous] (screaming) THIS IS SOOO FUUUUUN!!!!! [later, standing in a tree with her head against the trunk and her arms hanging limp, depressed] I am a horrible daughter. I'm going back. [later, doing cartwheels and rolling down a hill, ecstatic] I AM NEVER GOING BACK! Woo-hoo! [later, laying next to Flynn in a patch of flowers with her face in the ground, ashamed] I am a despicable human being! [later, using her hair as a vine and swinging around a tree with an annoyed Flynn standing there staring into space, joyous] WOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! BEST! DAY! EVER! [Later. Flynn walks up to Rapunzel, who is currently broken down in tears]
    Flynn Rider: [clears throat] You know, I can't help but notice, you seem a little at war with yourself here.
    Princess Rapunzel: [stops crying] What?
    Flynn Rider: Now, I'm only picking up bits and pieces, of course; overprotective mother, forbidden road trip. I mean, this is serious stuff! But let me ease your conscience. This is just a part of growing up. A little adventure, a little rebellion...that's good. Healthy, even.
    Princess Rapunzel: [chuckles] You think?
    Flynn Ryder: I know! Your way overthinking this, trust me. Does your mother deserve it? No. Would this break her heart and crush her soul? Of course, but you just got to do it.
    Princess Rapunzel: Break her heart?
    Flynn Rider: [picks out a grape] In half.
    Princess Rapunzel: Crush her soul?
    Flynn Rider: [squishes a grape in his fingers] Like a grape.
    Princess Rapunzel: She would be heartbroken, you're right!
    Flynn Rider: I am, aren't I. Oh, bother. Alright, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm letting you out of the deal.
    Princess Rapunzel: [catches on to what he's trying to do] What?
    Flynn Rider: That's right! But don't thank me. Let's just turn around and get you home. Here's your pan, here's your frog. I get back my satchel. You get back a mother/daughter relationship based on mutual trust and voila! We part ways as unlikely friends.
    Princess Rapunzel: No! I am seeing those lanterns.
    Flynn Rider: Oh, come on! What is it going to take for me to get my satchel back?!
    Princess Rapunzel: [holds frying pan to his face] I will use this...
    Thug: That's a lot of hair.
    Flynn Rider: She's growing it out. Is that blood on your moustache? [to Rapunzel] Goldie, look at this. Look at all the blood on his moustache! Good sir, that's a lot of blood!
    Princess Rapunzel: [after releasing a branch that hits Hook Hand Thug on the head] Put him down! [everyone stops and stares at her in disbelief] Okay, I don't know where I am, and I need him to take me to see the lanterns because I've been dreaming about them my entire life! Find your humanity! Haven't any of you ever had a dream?!
    [Hook Hand Thug hangs Flynn's shirt on the hook, draws his battle axe and threateningly walks over to Rapunzel]
    Hook Hand Thug: [wistfully] I had a dream once. [throws his axe at the wall, causing the accordion player to play the song; singing]
    I'm malicious, mean and scary,
    My sneer could curdle dairy,
    And violence-wise, my hands are not the cleanest.
    But despite my evil look,
    And my temper, and my hook,
    I've always yearned to be a concert pianist!
    Can'tcha see me on the stage performin' Mozart?
    Tickling the ivories 'til they gleam?
    Yes, I'd rather be called deadly,
    For my killer show-tune medley. Thank you.
    'Cause way down deep inside, I've got a dream.
    Thugs: [singing]
    He's got a dream! He's got a dream!
    Hook Hand Thug: [singing]
    See, I ain't as cruel and vicious as I seem!
    Though I do like breaking femurs,
    You can count me with the dreamers,
    Like everybody else, I've got a dream!
    Big Nose Thug: [singing]
    I've got scars and lumps and bruises,
    Plus something here that oozes,
    And let's not even mention my complexion!
    But despite my extra toes,
    And my goiter, and my nose,
    I really want to make a love connection!
    Can't you see me with a special little lady,
    Rowin' in a rowboat down the stream?
    Though I'm one disgusting blighter,
    I'm a lover, not a fighter,
    'Cause way down deep inside, I've got a dream!
    I've got a dream!
    Thugs: [singing]
    He's got a dream!
    Big Nose Thug: [singing]
    I've got a dream!
    Thugs: [singing]
    He's got a dream!
    Big Nose Thug: [singing]
    And I know one day romance will reign supreme!
    Though my face leaves people screaming,
    There's a child behind it, dreaming,
    Like everybody else, I've got a dream!
    Thugs: [singing]
    Tor would like to quit and be a florist.
    Gunther does interior design.
    Ulf is into mime. Attila's cupcakes are sublime.
    Bruiser knits, Killer sews,
    Fang does little puppet shows!
    Hook Hand Thug: [singing]
    And Vladimir collects ceramic unicorns! [spoken; to Flynn] What about you?
    Flynn Rider: [spoken] I'm sorry, me?
    Big Nose Thug: [spoken as Hook Hand Thug puts Flynn down] What's your dream?
    Flynn Rider: [spoken] No, no, no. Sorry, boys, I don't sing. [the thugs point their weapons at Flynn; singing]
    I have dreams, like you - no, really!
    Just much less touchy-feely,
    They mainly happen somewhere warm and sunny.
    On an island that I own,
    Tanned and rested and alone,
    Surrounded by enormous piles of money!
    Princess Rapunzel: [singing]
    I've got a dream!
    Thugs: [singing]
    She's got a dream!
    Princess Rapunzel: [singing]
    I've got a dream!
    Thugs: [singing]
    She's got a dream!
    Princess Rapunzel: [singing]
    I just want to see the floating lanterns gleam!
    Thugs: Yeah!
    Princess Rapunzel: [singing]
    And with every passing hour,
    I'm so glad I left my tower,
    Like all you lovely folks, I've got a dream!
    Thugs: [singing]
    She's got a dream!
    He's got a dream!
    They've got a dream!
    We've got a dream!
    So our differences ain't really that extreme!
    We're one big team...!
    Call us brutal, Sick!
    Hook Hand Thug: [singing]
    Sadistic!
    Big Nose Thug: [singing]
    And grotesquely optimistic!
    Thugs: [singing]
    But way down deep inside, We've got a dream!
    Hook Hand Thug: [singing]
    I've got a dream!
    Big Nose Thug: [singing]
    I've got a dream!
    Thugs: [singing]
    I've got a dream!
    I've got a dream!
    I've got a dream!
    Princess Rapunzel: [singing]
    I've got a dream!
    Princess Rapunzel and Thugs: [singing]
    Yes, way down deep inside, I've got a dream! Yeah!
    Man: I FOUND THE GUARDS!
    Hook Hand Thug: [to Rapunzel] Go live your dream.
    Flynn: I will.
    Hook Hand Thug: Your dream stinks. I was talking to her.
    Princess Rapunzel: [to Hook Hand Thug] Thanks for everything. [kisses him on the cheek, causing him to smile, before she and Flynn escape]
    Princess Rapunzel: So, Flynn. Where are you from?
    Flynn: Whoa, whoa, whoa! Sorry, Blondie. I don't do back-story; however, I am becoming very interested in yours. I know I'm not supposed to ask about the hair.
    Princess Rapunzel: Nope.
    Flynn: Or the mother.
    Princess Rapunzel: Uh-uh.
    Flynn: Frankly, I'm too scared to ask about the frog.
    Princess Rapunzel: Chameleon.
    Flynn: Nuance. Here's my question, though. If you wanted to see the lanterns so badly, why haven't you gone before?
    Princess Rapunzel: [Chuckles nervously] Well... [the tunnel begins to shake] Uh, Flynn? [they look back to find the guards and Maximus running after them] Flynn?!
    Captain: RIDER!!!!!
    Flynn: Run! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!
    [The Stabbington Brothers appear]
    Princess Rapunzel: Who's that?
    Flynn Rider: They don't like me.
    [The guards appear]
    Princess Rapunzel: Who's that?!
    Flynn Rider: They don't like me either.
    [Maximus appears]
    Princess Rapunzel: WHO IS THAT?!?!
    Flynn Rider: Let's just assume for the moment that everyone in here doesn't like me!
    [Rapunzel, Flynn, and Pascal are trapped in a dark and quickly flooding cave]
    Flynn: [coming up for air] It's no use! I can't see anything! [Rapunzel takes a deep breath and dives underwater. Flynn dives after her and pulls her back to the surface] Hey! There's no point! It's pitch black down there.
    Rapunzel: [regretfully] This is all my fault. She was right, I never should have done this. [sniffs] I'm so...I'm so sorry, Flynn. [sobs]
    Flynn: [sighs] Eugene.
    Princess Rapunzel: [confused] What?
    Eugene: [sheepishly] My real name is Eugene Fitzherbert. Someone might as well know.
    Princess Rapunzel: [smiling a little] I have magic hair that glows when I sing.
    [Beat]
    Eugene: What?
    Princess Rapunzel: [realization] I have...magic hair that glows when I sing! [briefly singing] Flower, gleam and glow Let your power shine
    [They hold their breaths as the water rises up. Then Rapunzel's hair glows, much to Eugene's shock and surprise. He then pulls some rocks for the light. Then the huge water crashes the rocks out of the cave, and the trio makes it to the shore]
    Princess Rapunzel: [relieved] We made it.
    Eugene: [to himself] Her hair glows...
    Princess Rapunzel: We're alive. We're alive!
    Eugene: [still to himself] I didn't see that coming! Her hair actually glows!
    Princess Rapunzel: Eugene...
    Eugene: [to Pascal] Why does her hair glow!?
    Princess Rapunzel: EUGENE!
    Eugene: [hysterically] WHAT?!
    Princess Rapunzel: It doesn't just glow.
    Eugene: [looks at Pascal grinning at him] Why is he smiling at me?
    Eugene: You look strangely enigmatic as you wrap my hand in your magical hair. Ah.
    Princess Rapunzel: Sorry! Only, dom’t don't fly into a rage.
    [After Rapunzel heals Eugene's hand at the campfire, Eugene is about to scream]
    Princess Rapunzel: Please don't freak out!
    Eugene: [wheezy] I'm not freaking out, are you freaking out? No, I'm just very, very interested in your hair and the magical qualities that it possesses. How long has it been doing that exactly?
    Princess Rapunzel: Uh...forever, I guess? Mother says when I was a baby, people tried to cut it. They wanted to take it for themselves. [shows Eugene her only brown lock inside her blonde hair] But once it's cut it turns brown and loses its power. A gift like that, it has to be protected. That's why Mother never let me... [sighs] That's why I never left and...
    Eugene: You never left that tower. [Rapunzel stares back at Eugene, a sad look on her face] And you're still gonna go back?
    Princess Rapunzel: No! Yes. [covers her face] It's complicated. [Pascal gently holds her foot. She notices Eugene watching her and calms down] So, "Eugene Fitzherbert", huh?
    Eugene: Ahh.. yeah, well. I'll spare you the sob story of poor orphan Eugene Fitzherbert. It's a little bit of a... it's a little bit of a downer. [Rapunzel scoots closer to him, eager to listen] There was this book. A book I used to read every night to all the younger kids. The Tales of Flynnigan Rider! Swashbuckling rogue, richest man alive, not bad with the ladies either. Not that he'd ever brag, of course.
    Princess Rapunzel: Hmm. Was he a thief, too?
    Eugene: Uh...well, no. Actually, he had enough money to do anything he wanted to do; he could go anywhere that he wanted to go. And-And for a kid, with nothing, I don't know. It just seemed like the better option. You can't tell anyone about this, okay? It could ruin my whole reputation.
    Princess Rapunzel: Ah, we wouldn't want that.
    Eugene: Well, a fake reputation is all a man has. [Rapunzel laughs, then they gaze into each other's eyes] Well, I should, um...I--I should-I should get some more firewood.
    Princess Rapunzel: Hey. [Eugene looks back] For the record, I like "Eugene Fitzherbert" much better than "Flynn Rider".
    Eugene: Well, then you'd be the first. But thank you.
    [Rapunzel watches Eugene fetch some more firewood; Mother Gothel is standing a few feet behind her]
    Mother Gothel: Well... [Rapunzel's eyes widen] I thought he'd never leave!
    Princess Rapunzel: [shocked] Mother?!
    Mother Gothel: Hello, dear.
    Princess Rapunzel: [walks up to her] But I-I-I-I-I don't, uh...How did you find me?
    Gothel: [hugging Rapunzel] Oh, it was easy, really. I just listened to the sound of complete and utter betrayal and followed that.
    Princess Rapunzel: [sighs] Mother...
    Mother Gothel: [interrupting] We're going home, Rapunzel. Now.
    Princess Rapunzel: Y-You don't understand! I've been on this incredible journey, and I've seen and learned so much...I even met someone!
    Mother Gothel: Yes, the wanted thief. I'm so proud. Come on, Rapunzel!
    [In the boat, Rapunzel sighs, suddenly feeling afraid]
    Eugene: [noticing the look on Rapunzel's face] Are you okay?
    Princess Rapunzel: [meekly whispers] I'm terrified.
    Eugene: [softly] Why?
    Princess Rapunzel: I've been looking out a window for 18 years, dreaming about what it might feel like when those lights rise in the sky. What if it's not everything that I dreamed it would be?
    Eugene: [reassuringly] It will be.
    Princess Rapunzel: And what if it is? What do I do then?
    Eugene: Well, that's the good part, I guess. You get to go find a new dream.
    [Rapunzel smiles, feeling reassured]
    Princess Rapunzel: [in the boat, seeing Eugene with two lanterns] I have something for you too. [holding up Eugene's satchel] I should have given it to you before, but I was just scared. And the thing is, I'm not scared anymore. You know what I mean?
    Eugene: [gently pushing the satchel aside] I'm starting to.
    [Eugene is pacing in a prison cell, worried about what's happened to Rapunzel. The door opens and in comes the Captain of the Guard along with two other guards]
    Captain: Let's get this over with, Rider.
    Eugene: Where are we going? [the Captain gives him a "You know" look; realizing, gingerly places his hand around his neck] Oh.
    [While Rapunzel finally realized that she is the kingdom's lost princess, Eugene is being escorted to the gallows; he sees the Stabbington Bros. and knocks out the two guards; he then threateningly advances to the Stabbington Bros.]
    Eugene: How did you know about her?! Tell me! (RIGHT) NOW!
    Stabbington: [scared] It wasn't us! It was the old lady!
    Eugene: [horrified realization] Old lady?! (What?) Ahh! Wait! [the guards come and drags him aways] No, wait! You don't understand. She's in trouble!? WAIT!!
    Mother Gothel: [comes upstairs] Rapunzel? Rapunzel, what's going on up there?! [Rapunzel is shown panting; she emerges from her room in shock.] Are you alright?
    Princess Rapunzel: [to herself; softly] I'm the lost princess.
    Mother Gothel: [sighs; annoyed] Please speak up, Rapunzel. You know how I hate the mumbling.
    Princess Rapunzel: [furiously, loudly] I am the lost princess. Aren't I? [Mother Gothel looks shocked, as though she never expected her to ever figure this out] Did I mumble, Mother? Or should I even call you that?
    Mother Gothel: [pauses, then regains composure] Oh, Rapunzel, do you even hear yourself? Why would you ask such a ridiculous question?
    Princess Rapunzel: [pushes her away, angriestily and frightened] It was you! It was all you!
    Mother Gothel: [coldly] Everything I did was to protect you. [Rapunzel shoves past her] Rapunzel...
    Princess Rapunzel: I've spent my entire life hiding from people who would use me for my powers...,
    Mother Gothel: Rapunzel!!!!!
    Princess Rapunzel: ...when I should have been hiding...from you!
    Mother Gothel: Where will you go?! [the image dissolves to a vision of Flynn being attacked by the guards in slow-motion; voiceover] He won't be there for you.
    Princess Rapunzel: [voiceover] What did you do to him?!
    Mother Gothel: [voiceover] That criminal is to be hanged for his crimes. [The image dissolves back to the tower]
    Princess Rapunzel: [gasps] No!
    Mother Gothel: Now, now. It's alright. Listen to me. All of this is as it should be. [tries to pat Rapunzel's head]
    Princess Rapunzel: [grabs her wrist] NO! You were wrong about the world! And you were wrong about me! And I will NEVER let you use my hair AGAIN! [Mother Gothel breaks free of Rapunzel's grip, only to cause a nearby mirror to fall and smashes the mirror. Rapunzel then turns to leave]
    Mother Gothel: [to herself] You want me to be the bad guy? Fine. [advances toward Rapunzel threateningly] Now I'm the bad guy. [As the guards escort Eugene through the prison tower, all the doors around them suddenly closed]
    Captain: What's this?! Open up!
    Shorty: What's a password?
    Captain: What?!
    Shorty: [happy] Nope!
    Captain: OPEN THE DOOR!!!!
    Shorty: Not even close!
    Captain: You have 3 seconds! 1... [behind him, a hook pulls one guard upward] 2... [a hand pulls the other guard into a room] 3...?! (Oops.) [turns and notices that the guards are gone. Attila the thug creeps up behind the captain and hits him with a frying pan]
    Eugene: Frying-pans! Who knew, right?!
    Hook Hand Thug: Head down.
    Eugene: Head down.
    Hook Hand Thug: Arms in.
    Eugene: Arms in.
    Hook Hand Thug: Knees apart.
    Eugene: Knees apart-- [flabbergasted] (Wait.) Knees apart?! [Vladimir jumps from the balcony] Why do I need to keep my knees apa…? [Vladimir lands on the beam where Eugene is standing on a wheel-barrel sending him flying, and lands on Maximus' back] Max. You brought them here? Thank you. [Max neighs] No, really. Thank you. Uh... I feel maybe this whole time we've just been misunderstanding one another and we're really just... [Max stares at him] Yeah, you're right. We should go.
    Eugene: Rapunzel, I thought I'd never see you again! [gasps] [sees Rapunzel bound and gagged with chains, and Enraged, Mother Gothel stabs him from behind]
    Mother Gothel: Now look what you've done, Rapunzel. Oh, don't worry, dear. Our secret will died with him. And as for us? We are going where no 1 will ever find you, again! (Eugene: Rapunzel, no!) [furiously drags Rapunzel to the secret exit, but she resists. She also kicks Pascal to the floor] Rapunzel, really! ENOUGH ALREADY! (Eugene: Rapunzel, no! Don't taken to dungeon! Gothel, stop yelling!) STOP FIGHTING ME!!
    Princess Rapunzel: [removes the handkerchief from her mouth] NO! I WON'T stop! For every minute of the rest of my life I will fight! I will never stop trying to get away from you!!! [looks toward Eugene] But, if you let me save him...I will go with you.
    Eugene: [groans] No. No, Rapunzel...
    Princess Rapunzel: I'll never run; I'll never try to escape. Just let me heal him. And you and I will be together. Forever, just like you want. Everything will be the way it was. I promise. Just like you want. Just let...me...heal him. [Pauses out]
    Mother Gothel: [chaining Eugene's wrist] In case you get any ideas about following us. [leaves]
    Princess Rapunzel: [runs up to Eugene] Eugene! [checking his injury] Oh, I'm so sorry. Everything is going to okay, though.
    Eugene: No, Rapunzel!
    Princess Rapunzel: I promise, you have to trust me.
    Eugene: No...I can't let you do this.
    Princess Rapunzel: But I can't let you die.
    Eugene: But if you do this...
    Princess Rapunzel: Shhh.
    Eugene: Then you...will died.
    Princess Rapunzel: Hey. It's gonna be all right. [Eugene smiles weakly. Rapunzel is about to sing the healing incantation]
    Eugene: Rapunzel? Wait... [She leans over, as she thought she was about to kiss him. But Eugene uses a piece of the broken mirror to cut Rapunzel's hair off completely]
    Princess Rapunzel: [shocked as her hair turns brown] Eugene, what...?
    Mother Gothel: [last words] NO!! [the hair turns brown to the tip; she ages into her true elderly form] Oh, no! NO!! What have you done?! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!?! NO!!! [Looks on the broken mirror and Dakota's noises] OH, NO!!! NO!!! NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!! [Pascal uses the long brown hair to trip her out of the window] AAAHHH!!! [falls out of the tower to her death] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!! (Rapunzel: Gothel! NOOOOO!) [She turns to dust before her cloak hits the ground]
    [last lines]
    Eugene: [narrating] But I know what the big question is: Did Rapunzel and I ever get married? Well, I am pleased to tell you that after years and years of asking and asking and asking, I finally said "yes".
    Princess Rapunzel: [correcting him; in sing-song voice] Eugene!
    Eugene: [narrating] Alright, I asked her.
    Princess Rapunzel: [also narrating] And we're living happily ever after.
    Eugene: [narrating] Yes, we are.

## About Tangled

* Well, Byron and I love a good challenge. The idea of creating this hair, 70 feet of hair in a CG film. When you go back and look at any other CG film, hair is usually in a bob or it’s short, because technically it’s a pain to do. Up until this point it’s been pretty impossible at times to have people interact with it at times.

* When Glen [Keane] was doing drawing after drawing, we actually had a baseball cap with 70-foot long strands of string on it so that the animators could run around and see what that feels like. And we photographs…we had women who had never had their hair cut in 20–30 years come in and we looked at how it behaves once it gets past a certain length. What does that feel like? What’s the texture like? And, of course, we were just talking about this with one of the other guys, we had this brilliant team of technicians who were working on the hair for about six or seven years before the release of the film, and right up until the last minute we weren’t sure if we were going to be able to pull it off, because it was behaving so bizarrely. At one point it was looking like fabric, at one point it was looking like string, or synthetic nylon… it didn’t look like hair yet. All these layers that we had to add, like clumping and static electricity and now it just looks like natural, beautiful hair, but the effort behind it is mammoth.
* The braid was great because there is a point where you don’t want to think about the hair as a hindrance anymore and you just want to pay attention to her emotional journey and it was a great way to change her look mid-way through the movie. Even weaving that braid in CG was so hard. We had to ask the woman of the studio who actually knew how to do it, we had to watch it so carefully, model it – it was nuts.
