Tangled: The Series (2017) s01e09 Episode Script

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 Narrator: Centuries ago, Corona was engaged in a years-long war with its rival kingdom, Saporia.
Corona's then-king, Herz Der Sonne, created a complex system of tunnels to move his knights and supplies wherever he needed.
He then made a detailed map of these tunnels and their secrets in a secure journal.
At the height of the war, Der Sonne's sworn enemy, General Shampanier, launched a full-scale invasion on Corona.
Shampanier fought her way through the castle to face King Herz Der Sonne himself.
Their battle waged for hours with neither side relenting.
That is, until Shampanier discovered that the book's final pages contained Herz's profession of love for her.
It was then she realized she held similar feelings for him as well.
And soon, the two were married.
(cheering) And a lasting piece was brought to the newly united nations forevermore.
(sobbing) Gets me every time.
Oh! Isn't that the most romantic story you've ever heard? I guess.
If you're into romance and that kinda thing.
And our kingdom commemorates this day, the Day of Hearts, each year by displaying the book, so all those who have found true love may sign its pages.
(cheering) Happy Day of Hearts, my lady.
(growling) Can't this kingdom go one day without celebrating something? I'm a little worried about Cass.
She's been acting kind of weird lately.
Probably just the Day of Hearts.
People either love it or loathe it.
Cass obviously falls into the latter category because she hates everything.
Nothing we can do.
Ahh! Or maybe there is.
Ladies lunch! And I brought cupcakes! Each one is a single serving, because there's nothing wrong with being single, right, Friedborg? This is great, Raps, but I don't have time right now, okay? You two have fun, though.
Uh, wait! What is that? Is something caught up in my hair? (gasp) Now how did that get in there? (knocking) (whistling) - Will you just stop, Rapunzel? - (door slamming) Drastic times call for drastic measures.
- (sing-song) Cass! - (Cass gasps) Look what I got for you.
I know you are gonna love this.
I painted Eugene's face on your sparring dummy like you always wanted! I mean, it kinda felt horrible doing it, but I'm sure he won't mind.
You know if we don't tell him, obviously, please don't tell him.
Thanks.
You're sweet.
(as Eugene) Come on, Cassandra.
Look at my adorable, well-chiseled face.
Don't you just wanna hit it? Look, Raps, I get what you're doing, and I appreciate it, - but I'm fine.
- Cass, no.
Something is clearly wrong.
You never wanna hang out, you keep disappearing.
You don't even wanna beat up Eugene.
I'm dealing with uh, some stuff.
Stuff I'm not ready to share, but when I am ready, you'll be the first person I go to.
Trust me.
Okay.
I trust you.
So, we've just gotta let Cass come to us when she's ready - to share what's going on.
- (squeaking) Rapunzel: (gasp) That's Cass! What is she up to? - Maybe we should find out.
- (squeaks) Not to be nosy, just to make sure she's okay.
Ah-ohh! Huh? Oh.
There you are.
I couldn't resist the invitation.
So that's what's going on! Cass is in love! (squeaking) Whoa-whoa! (splash) (coughing) Cass? And friend of Cass? No introduction? Okay.
Yeah, that's fine.
Oh, I I'm sorry.
I'm Andrew.
You must be cold.
Please, take my jacket.
Thank you.
Ooh, nice and warm.
I made it myself.
It was shorn from the fleece of poquito Juan Pablo, a blind orphan mountain sheep I rescued from a pack of ravenous wolves.
I gave him a home, he gave me warmth.
I often ask myself, who rescued whom? Wow! This guy is smooth.
Actually, Rapunzel was just leaving.
Oh! Right.
Yes, of course! It's It's getting late and I have to rest my muscles after a swim like that, wouldn't wanna cramp up.
- Rapunzel! - Right, right, sorry.
Good night! - Whoa! - (splash) Rapunzel: (gasp) Someone left crates all over the dock.
Sorry about that.
Well, she seemed nice.
Wow.
Cassandra actually found a boyfriend.
He is so hand Hands His, um They aren't proportional to the rest of his body, gross, uchh, not attractive.
You think he's handsome? His eyebrows are clearly asymmetrical, and you call that facial hair? - Come on.
- How great would it be if the four of us became best friends and did couple-y things all the time together? Uh, great isn't the first word that comes to mind.
Honestly.
Stomach-churning.
That does.
The only problem is I think Cass is kinda shy when it comes to admirers.
Cassandra may be a lotta things, and I mean, (laughs) a lot of things, but shy ain't one of 'em.
You're better off letting her handle this however she sees best.
I agree with you, to a point.
And to which point would that be? - A double date? - Yes! They're four-person fun machines! - (cabinet doors opening) - Rapunzel, I appreciate your enthusiasm, I really, really do, but I I'm not at a place where I wanna go public.
Which is why I've come up with an itinerary of private activities for us.
(sigh) But we really aren't that serious yet.
Uh, no problem.
We'll keep it short and sweet, then.
(mandolin music playing) (finishes playing, croaks) So, Andrew, I couldn't help but notice you're goin' steady - with our Cassandra.
- W We're not going steady.
But, you are interested, right? I I just wanna be clear, because you strike me as a guy who really has his game together.
I mean, you're smart, attractive, not the most attractive man in the room, clearly - Eugene! - What? Cass knows I'm kidding, right? No, seriously, though, is she blackmailing you? Blink three times if the answer is yes.
- Ah-yeee! - So, Andrew, tell us everything.
How did you and Cass meet? Well, see, I'm somewhat bibliophilic.
Bibliophilic? Oh, I am so sorry, but don't you worry, Andrew.
Corona has the best medical professionals in the world.
(chuckles) Actually, a bibliophile is someone who loves books.
Oh, bibliophilic, of course.
I've read about that.
I told you this was a bad idea.
- (bowl hitting table) - (squeaking) I simply had to see King Herz Der Sonne's book.
As an anthropologist, as a historian, and, as a mere amateur chirographist, well, it's been my dream.
Anyway, I sent the Captain of the Guards many letters requesting an opportunity to study the book up close.
But my dad asked me to send a letter rejecting his request, for security reasons.
So instead, I invited him to come see the book on the Day of Hearts, when it's available to the public.
And our letters continued and well, (chuckles) Cassie and I got to know each other, very well.
(mandolin music playing) That is so cute! Yeah, our Cassie is quite the catch.
You know, she's the most skilled fighter for miles around.
(kicks table) (laughs) Oh R Really? A (chuckling) And on that note, I think we should call it a night.
Andrew has to fly home in the morning.
Rapunzel/Eugene: Fly? (birds crying) Andrew: Ballooning is one of my passions.
What better way to see nature's gifts than from a bird's perspective? Besides, I don't condone modes of transportation that exploit animals.
Woo-hoo! (gasp) It's like being in a giant lantern! It's magic! It's simple science, actually, but yes, your Highness, it can be quite magical.
You wanna make your life easier, have Cass here pull those cords for you.
She's got some serious pythons under there.
Okay, this double date needs to end, now.
You guys are totally embarrassing me.
We are? I'm sorry, we didn't mean to.
It's fine, but can you two please stop talking about my muscles or my fighting skills? I want Andrew to know a different side of me.
Oh! Yeah! Of course.
And as soon as the balloon touches down, I'd like to be alone with him.
But we haven't even gotten to the tandem horseback ride y Okay.
Yeah.
Got it.
Cass wants some alone time.
Ahh! Thank goodness! If I have to spend one more minute with this guy Eugene! You wanna take us down? (excited laugh) Gently twist the valve counterclockwise to vent the hot air.
Thanks, ace, I'll take it from here.
Wow! That necklace is so beautiful.
May I see? It's been in my family for decades, it means, "Love is true inner wealth.
" You said clockwise, right? (birds cawing) Don't worry! Eugene and I will find it.
You guys go finish your date.
Ooh, it was counterclockwise, wasn't it? Right.
Ouch! I feel terrible about this! Ow! I know I might've come on a bit strong, but I'm really happy for Cass.
Ow! I just wish she weren't so guarded.
Aah! Look, it's not all your fault.
I know it's not all my fault.
You were the one that turned the valve the wrong way.
But it's mostly your fault.
What? Okay, I'm the last person to defend Cassandra, but not everyone is as open with their feelings as you are.
Okay? Cass plays things closer to her vest.
And if you wanna be her friend, which is something I will never, ever, ever, ever understand, you'll have to accept that, and back off a bit.
- Hmm.
- (Pascal squeaks) - (squeaking) - Rapunzel: The pendant! And the other half of the pendant! You got any gum? Sorry my friends have been so intrusive.
And I am really sorry about your pendant.
Don't worry about it, Cassie, I I'm just glad that we finally get to be alone.
Me, too.
- (both grunting) - (thud) You know how you've been saying it'd be great to get a private, up close look at the book? Well, I thought we might sneak a peek, and, I don't know, I saw some other couples signing it together, so, if you wanted to Cassie.
I I thought you'd never ask.
But isn't it after visiting hours? Perks of being a guard's daughter.
Xavier, I can't thank you enough for getting out of bed to do this for us.
It's my pleasure.
I'm just surprised you would want to fix something like (clears throat) this.
But why? It's so sweet.
It means, "Love is true inner wealth.
" (chuckles) Whoever told you that was lying.
This is the emblem of the separatists of Saporia.
- The what, now? - Centuries ago, after the war brought Saporia and Corona together, there was a small sect of Saporians who felt betrayed, and swore revenge on our kingdom.
Some say their descendants are still around, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike back at Corona.
(giggles) We don't have a lot of time.
Oh, don't worry.
This won't take long.
Cass is gonna be devastated when she finds out the truth about Andrew.
Yeah.
The only guy who can mess with Cass is me.
Okay.
We'd better split up.
I'll check the throne room, you take the courtyard.
It's exactly as I imagined.
Find the perfect space for us.
(grunts) Sorry, sweetie, but the book stays here.
- But how did you - I knew you were a fraud from day one.
You misspelled "bibliophile" in your letters, bonehead.
I was only playing you long enough to see what your angle was, and from my angle, it looks like you've been shut down, Andrew.
- If that's even your real name.
- It's (sigh) It's Hubert.
- Aah! - Put these on and don't say another word.
Cassandra! Watch out! Andrew is Ahh! not who he says he is.
Cuff yourselves to the podium.
I'd say see you later, but there's not gonna be a later for Corona.
Huh, huh, Stan! Pete! Have you seen Andrew anywhere? Have I? Let me tell you somethin'.
That is one handsome fella.
He sounds so like, worldly.
Which makes him handsome on the inside.
He is not that handsome, okay? Did you not notice his wonky eyebrows with the Oh, never mind! Cassandra: (sigh) You know? After the exposition debacle, this was my big chance to prove to my dad I have what it takes to be a guard.
But you messed that all up, Rapunzel! Well, maybe if you had told me what you were planning, I wouldn't have messed it up.
I couldn't count on you not letting anything slip! Hey, I can keep things to myself.
Oh, yeah? Kinda like when you told Eugene about the night we snuck out? - How did you know - Or, when you told about those rocks I showed you? - I had to.
He was gonna - And how'd your mom find out who ate her last chocolate truffle, hmm? I turned myself in.
The guilt was just Look, Raps, you're my best friend.
(sigh) But you're a sharer.
It's in your nature, and I'm fine with that.
But you'll have to be fine with respecting things I wanna keep to myself.
Even if those things have life-threatening consequences? Okay, in my defense, no one's life was really threatened until you showed up.
You're right.
Tell you what.
Let's make a deal.
I'll understand you keeping some things to yourself, if you understand that when something's bothering you, I'm gonna wanna help.
You've got my back, so let me have yours.
I suppose I can live with that.
Rapunzel! Ahh, I bet we don't think Andrew's so handsome anymore, now do we, ladies? I wouldn't say he's un-handsome, right? I mean him being a rebel doesn't really take away from the fact Oh, you've gotta be kidding me! Oh, go after the book.
Don't waste time trying to pick the cuffs, - they're double-locking, black steel - Got 'em.
Huh.
All right.
We may just have a chance to catch him if we hurry.
Ha-ha! So long, Corona! I just realized, I never gave you your good night kiss.
(grunts) Aah! Now, hand over that book.
(breathing heavily) (grunt) (grunting) Oh, that was insanely hard.
(grunting) Uh, you guys who's drivin' this thing? - Ahh! - Yaah! (screams) (gasps) Ohh! (squeaks) I knew you cared after all.
- Well, I don't! - (smack) Aah Bibliophilic! - Enough! Give me the book! - (grunting) - (smack) - Ooh! - Hey! - Get us down from here! Now that I can do! Come on, Pascal! We're almost there.
Now, was it clockwise or counterclockwise? Oooh.
Ahh! Whoa! Ohh the book! Huh! - Eugene, grab the book and get us down.
- Working on it! Whoa! Ha! You know, I'm starting to enjoy this.
Aah! Whoa! Give me the book, Eugene.
And have Cassandra mad at me? I think not.
Oh, believe me, you would much rather have Cassandra mad at you than me! Ahh! Aah! Aahh! Whoa! (squeaking) Gee, a bunch of butterfingers up there.
- Eugene, the book! - Yeah, got it! And I'm fine, too! Thank you for asking.
Yeee! Yeah No! No! No, no, no, no! Huh! Huh You know, it's too bad, I was almost starting to like you.
(grunts) Pascal! (squeaks) Uhh! (grunting) (grunts) Oh, Cassandra.
Saporia will rise again and we'll have you to thank for it.
Eugene: Cassandra! You're welcome! (tearing balloon) Huh? (tearing) - (groans) - I wouldn't count on a second date if I were you.
(smack) Here's Corona's hero.
Everyone is talking about how you saved Herz De Sonne's book.
Eh, I'm just glad to be back on my dad's good side.
- (gasp) - What? Nothing.
Nothing at all.
- I'm proud of you.
- (laughs) I'm proud of you, too.
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
