Still a little sapling, just a sprout.

-You know why we stay up in this tower

-I know, but...

Thats right, to keep you safe,

and sound, dear.

Guess I always knew this day was coming.

Know that soon you'd want

to leave the nest.

-Soon, but not yet. Shhh..

-But

Trust me pet,

Mother, knows best.

Mother knows best,

listen to your mother.

It's a scary world

out there.

Mother knows best.

One way or another, something

will go wrong, I swear.

Ruffians, thugs, poison Ivy,

quicksand.

Cannibals, and snakes,

the plague.

Also large bugs, men with pointy teeth.

And stop, no more,

you'll just upset me.

Mother's right here,

mother will protect you.

Darling here's what I suggest.

Skip the drama,

stay with Mama.

Mother, knows best.

Mother knows best.

Take it from your mumsey.

On your own, you won't survive.

Sloppy underdressed, immature, clumsy,

Please, they'll eat you up,

alive.

Gullible, nave,

positively grubby.

Ditzy and a bit,

well, hmm vague.

Plus I believe, getting

kinda chubby.

I'm just saying,

'Cause I wuv you.

Mother understands,

Mothers here to help you.

All I have is one request.

-Rapunzel?

-Yes?

Don't ever ask to

leave this tower, again.

Yes, Mother.

Ahh, I love you very much, dear.

I love you more.

I love you most.

Don't forget it.

You'll regret it.

Motherrrrrrr.

Knows best.

Rapunzel, I'll see you

in a bit, my flower.

I'll be here.

No, no no. This is bad, this is

very, very bad, This is really bad.

They just can't get my nose right.

Who cares.

Well it's easy for you to say.

You guys look amazing.

All right, okay. Give me a boost,

and I'll pull you up.

Give us the satchel first.

Wha..? I just...

I can't believe, that after all

we've been together,

you don't trust me.

Ouch.

Now help us up, pretty boy.

Sorry, my hands are full.

What?

RYDER!

Retrieve that satchel with any force.

We got him now, Maximus.

Go!

Heyah! Come flea-bag, forward.

No.

No, stop it.

HAH!

-AHHHHH!

-WHINNEYY!

(Sniffing)

(Horse whinnies in distance)

Alone at last.

(((CLANG!!!)))

Huh?

(((CLANG!!)))

Okay, okay, I got a person

in the closet.

I got a person in the closet.

I got a person in my closet!

To weak to handle myself

out there, huh Mother?

Well, Tell that to my pan here.

Rapunzel!

Let down your hair.

One moment, Mother.

I have a big surprise.

Uh, I do too.

Oh, I bet my surprise is bigger.

I don't think you got it.

I found my parsnips. I can always make

hazel nut soup for dinner, your favorite.

Surprise!

Well mother, there's something

I want to tell you.

Oh Rapunzel, you know I hate

leaving you after a fight.

Especially when I've done

absolutely nothing wrong.

Okay, I've been thinking a lot

about what you said, earlier.

I hope you're not still talking

about the stars.

Before you answer, yes

I'm leading up to that.

Because I really thought

we dropped the issue, sweetheart.

No Mother, I'm just saying,

you think I'm not strong enough

to handle myself out there.

Oh darling, I know you're not strong

enough to handle yourself out there.

-But if you just...

-Rapunzel, we're done talking about this.

-But trust me, I...

-Rapunzel.

-...know what I'm

-Rapunzel.

-Oh, come on.

-You have no other life, Rapunzel.

You are not leaving this tower,

EVER!

Oh, great. Now I'm the bad guy.

All I was gonna say, mother

is that...

I know what I want for my

birthday, now.

And what is that?

New paint. That paint made from

the white shells you once brought me.

Well that is a very long trip,

Rapunzel.

Almost three day's time.

I just thought it was a

better idea than, stars.

You sure you'll be all right,

on your own?

I know I'm safe, as long

as I'm here.

I'll be back in three days time.

I love you very much, dear.

I love you more.

I love you most.

Okay.

AHH!

Wha..?

Is this...hair?

Struggling...struggling is pointless.

I know why you're here.

And I'm not afraid of you.

What?

Who are you, and how

did you find me?

Ah hah.

Who are you, and how

did you find me?

(Clears throat)

I know not who you are.

Nor how I came to find you.

But may I just say.

Hi!

How you doing?

The names Flynn Ryder.

How's it going, huh?

Who else knows my location,

Flynn Ryder?

-All right, Blondie.

-Rapunzel.

Gesundheit, here's the thing.

I was in a situation,

Gallivanting through the forest.

I can across your tower and...

Ho, ho no, where is my satchel?

I hid it, somewhere you'll

never find it.

It's in the pot, isn't it.

(((Clang!!)))

Ahh, would you stop that.

Now it's hidden where you'll never find it.

So, what do you want,

with my hair?

-To cut it?

-What?

-Sell it?

-No!

Listen, the only thing I want

to do with your hair,

is to get out of it.

Literally.

Wait, you don't want my hair?

Why on earth would

I want your hair?

Look, I was being chased, I saw a

tower, I climbed it, end of story.

You're, telling the truth?

YES!

Hmmm.

I know, but he's someone

that can take me.

I think he's telling the truth.

Nothing I think,

but what choice do I have?

Uh, okay Flynn Ryder,

I'm prepared to offer you a deal.

-Deal?

-Look this way.

Do you know what these are?

You mean the lantern thing

they do for the princess?

Lanterns...

I knew they weren't stars.

Well, tomorrow evening

they will light the night sky,

with these lanterns.

You will act as my guide,

Take me to these lanterns,

and return me home safely.

Then, and only then, will

I return your satchel to you.

That is my deal.

Yeah, no can do.

Unfortunately, the kingdom and I

are not exactly, simpatico,

at the moment. So I

won't be taking you anywhere.

Something brought you here,

Flynn Ryder.

-Call it what you will, fate, destiny.

-A horse.

So I have made the decision to

trust you.

A horrible decision, really.

But trust me, when I tell you this.

You can tear this tower apart,

brick by brick.

but without my help, you will

never find your precious satchel.

(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?

I promise.

And when I promise something, I never

ever break that promise.

EVER!

All right, listen, I didn't want

to have to want to do this,

but you leave me no choice.

Here comes the 'smolder'.

This is kind of an off day for me.

This doesn't normally happen.

Fine, I'll take you to see the lanterns.

Really!

-Ooops.

-You broke my 'smolder'.

You coming, Blondie?

Look at the world so close, and I'm

half way to it

Look at it all, so big

do I even dare?

I just have to do it.

Should I? No.

Here I go.

Just smell the grass, the dirt.

Just like I dreamed they'd be.

Just feel that summer breeze.
