The Quest for Varian

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 - Oh, confound these infernal streamers! - (LAUGHING) Aww.
Is the mighty king having a hard time? It's not funny.
Have you any idea how difficult it is to (CLEARS THROAT) (GIGGLES) Oh.
Hm.
(BOTH LAUGHING) (GASP) (GASP) Rapunzel! Stay here, with me, where you belong.
VARIAN: Rapunzel! Help me! Darling, don't! Dad! (CRASHING SOUNDS) Dad! Whoa! Whoa! Dad? Rapunzel! You promised! What? (RAPUNZEL SHOUTS INDISTINCTLY) (EXPLOSION) VARIAN: Aah! Hey, Blondie, you want Aah! Rapunzel! Aah! Ah What happened? Are you okay? I I I I don't know.
Oh Oh It was like the dream I had after my coronation, only more intense.
This one This one was trying to tell me something.
Tell you what? I'm not sure.
The rocks, my hair, Varian, it's like they're all connected, and I have to find out how.
Uh, hey guys, sorry to interrupt dream chat here, but is no one else even a little bit concerned that Rapunzel woke up suspended in mid-air? (SQUEAKING) Eugene, what I saw meant something.
Okay.
Let's say it did.
But what if it was a warning, telling you to stay here, where you're safe.
I mean, we got it pretty good here, right? Maybe you should leave the mystery behind these rocks alone.
No.
I can't.
I need answers.
And I think I know where to start looking.
I made it clear that we were not to discuss magic or glowing rocks.
Has anyone been to old Corona recently? I'm worried that Varian is in trouble.
Princess, Varian is dangerous.
Have you forgotten the boy attacked you during the storm Nigel! Come with me.
I've been aware of these rocks for quite some time.
They posed a real problem.
Um Displacing people from their homes, - damaging roads - Oh, no.
But But fortunately, we've taken care of them, one by one.
The rocks have been removed, and the people of Old Corona are all well and good.
But why all the secrecy? Rapunzel, I apologize for not being more candid at first.
I can only hope that when you're queen, you'll understand the value of not drawing attention and causing a panic over problems that have been handled.
You see? And now you know what the situation is.
Or rather, was.
That's a relief.
And thanks for being honest with me, Dad.
Yes.
Of course.
Now, run along.
We've got more pressing issues before us.
Like planning your birthday party.
Happy Birthday, Rapunzel! Thank you! We still don't know anything about where Varian is (GASP) The kite! Wait It's the same one from my vision! There's a note! And a key! It's from Varian.
"Rapunzel, I need your help now more than ever.
"I may have discovered the key to the rocks.
"Find the bronze graphtyc in my lab.
"But be careful.
They are watching and will do anything to stop you.
" They? Who are they? It's always somethin' with that guy.
I knew it! I knew it, he still needs our help.
What do you wanna do? (SIGHS) Sorry, Dad.
We gotta go to Old Corona.
Old Corona is just over this hill.
(SQUEAKING) Hoo! Sorry, Pascal, but he's not a big fan of reptiles.
Unless he can eat them.
(SQUEAKING) I can't tell you what a treat it is to be spending so much time with a cold-blooded dead-eyed bird of prey.
Owls are warm-blooded, genius.
(CHUCKLES) I wasn't talking about the owl.
Oh-hoo-hoo, I guess I walked right into that one.
(CHUCKLES) Yeah, you really did! Stop the cart! (CURIOUS GRUNT) What is it? My dad told me that all the black rocks had been removed.
Okay! So he missed one! Um guys? Or one hundred.
They missed a hun They They did not do a very thorough job counting these rocks.
Do you think your father lied? No, of course not.
I trust my father, but clearly he has no idea how bad things have gotten out here.
Come on.
Let's move on.
Hoo! I've never seen anything like this.
So far, everything in my dream has come true, there's no question now.
These rocks they hold a secret, and somehow, I I'm I'm connected to it.
And maybe even responsible for it.
What do you wanna do? I'm sorry, Eugene, but I already let Varian down once.
He wants us to get that graphtyc and that's what we're gonna do.
Well, let's go.
Varian's home is on the far side of town.
You heard the lady.
- (SQUEAKING) - EUGENE: Aah! Uh, Blondie? - Hair? - Fancy Pants is right.
Remember what happens when you touch those.
Mmm Well, then I'll just have to be careful.
How do we know if any of these openings will take us to the other side? We need a bird's eye view.
- (WHISTLES) - (OWL HOOTING) - (HOOTING) - I think he found a way.
- Okay, Max? You keep watch.
- (GRUNTING) - So, you think I'm fancy? - Ugh That's not a retraction! We're here.
(EUGENE GRUNTING) Well! What a convenient, easy-to-navigate path your bird found, Cass.
That is some owl you got there.
Hhh Thanks.
Oh, and by the way? He's also an attack owl.
I taught him to go for the eyes first.
Huh Mmm.
Of course, by some owl, I meant some very noble, very majestic, very non-eye-scratchy, did I mention majestic? Owl.
You know, someone should really sit this kid down, and have a frank discussion about the importance of an organized, clutter-free workspace.
Look at all these.
- What is - (BURSTING) (COUGHING) (SQUEAKING) (SQUEAKING) (LAUGHS, CLEARS THROAT) Guys, come on.
That graphtyc has to be here somewhere.
(GASP) I found it! I found the graphtyc! Great! Now let's get outta here 'cause this place gives me the creeps.
(GASP) (GASP) Oh, no! It's Varian's father! Blondie, are you okay? Maybe you were right.
Maybe my dream was trying to tell me to stay in the castle where I belong.
Rapunzel, what are you talking about? I touched those rocks and now this.
Oh, come on, now.
We don't know that any of this is your fault.
We don't know that it's not.
Okay, Princess? I know what I said before about forgetting all this, but this is way, way worse than I or anyone else imagined, and one thing has become clear.
Fault or no fault, people are in danger.
A lot of danger, and the Rapunzel I know was never one to run and hide from a fight.
- (DOOR SWINGS OPEN) - (GASPING) Hand over the graphtyc.
- Who is that? - Must be a friend of Varian's.
(SHOUTS) - (GRUNTING) - (WEAPONS CLASHING) Aahh! Ohhh! Cass! Oh, you just crossed a line, bub! - Whoa - (HOOTING) Whoaaa! (GROANS) Oh, boy, that was that was a mistake.
(ANGRY HOOTING) Hand it over, now.
(SQUEAKING) (SQUEAKING) (GRUNTING) (CRASH) Stay back! I've got a wall full of alchemy and I am not afraid to use it! - (GRUNTS) - (CRASH) Pascal! Hit me! - (CRASH) - Ugh Stink bomb? Come on! - (GRUNTS) - (CRASH) (CRASH, CRASH) (GRUNTS) Ha! Thanks! - (CRASH) - Yeah! That oughta hold you! All right, come on! Let's get outta here! Slow down, Rapunzel! Your hair touches these things and we're goners! Yeah! What she said! We don't have much time before he gets free! - Who was that? - Ahh, I don't know, but it must've been us Ohh! Aah! (EUGENE GRUNTS) How fast is this guy? - Ahh - Huh! Well, I guess that explains why he could move so fast.
Cassandra, you take the ones in black, We'll handle the rest.
(SQUEAKING) (CLANG) (WHINNYING) (CLANGING) (CLANG) Max! Oh, you couldn't have come a second sooner! - Take us home, big guy! - Whoaaa! These guys want whatever this is pretty badly.
Something tells me we won't make it to the castle.
She's right.
We need somewhere to hide and come up with a plan.
I know just the place.
Yah! (NEIGHS) - We're here.
- Here? Where's here? You said we needed a place to hide.
Here we are.
And once again, where is here? (OWL HOOTING) - They're following us.
- Guys, come on! What are you slow pokes waiting for? Okay, Eugene, today we are rappelling down the side of a cliff with a horse, princess, and a frog.
Man, I love Corona! Ha-ha! (GRUNTS) (WHINNYING) - (EUGENE GROANS) - (SPITS) Eugene, I'm surprised you didn't recognize where we are.
Actually, now I'm not sure I recognize it.
EUGENE: This is bad.
(SIGH) These rocks are an even bigger problem than we thought.
Huh? Oh, no, actually, I was talking about my vest.
I got it dirty during the fall, but, uh (CLEARS THROAT) yeah no, those rocks are bad, super bad.
EUGENE: Oh, and this is where she hit me with a frying pan for the very first time.
Little known fact, but the blow actually improved my hairline.
Yeah, pre-pan, cowlick, post-pan perfection.
What is so important about this thing? Oh, uh, watch your step, pal.
That's where I died.
See? Have you seen anything like this? It sounds like something's inside.
- (SHAKING NOISE) - EUGENE: Googly eyes, hair a mess This is the armoire where Rapunzel hid my unconscious body.
You remember that, honey? Ha-ha What a romantic first date.
- (GRUNTING) - (EUGENE CONTINUES TALKING) RAPUNZEL: Wait a minute.
so, yeah, we should just leave that alone.
The key! EUGENE: Aww, why the long face? Heh-heh-heh! It's okay, I came back alive.
RAPUNZEL: It's some kind of scroll.
Oh, uh, this is where Mother Gothel fell to her doom.
Guys? I think we have a problem? You've gotta be kidding! What do you wanna do, Blondie? No more running, no more hiding.
These guys just ticked off the wrong princess.
That's my girl! Sorry, Eugene, frying pans are great and all, but it's time for an upgrade.
Rapunzel, what are you doing? Letting down my hair.
(GASP) (CRASH) (GRUNTS) (NEIGHS, GRUNTS) (CRASHING) Um, I did not expect the rocks to follow me all the way up here.
- What did you expect them to do? - (CRASHING SOUNDS) Come on! (WHINNYING) (CRASHING) Oh! (HOOTING) That's the only way out! Let's go! Come on! So, horses can climb now! That's a thing.
(CRASHING) Hoo hoo! Oooh oooh! Hoo! Hoo? Hoo! - (HOOTING) - (WHINNYING) (CRASHING) There is only one way down! (CRASHING SOUNDS) Guys, I think I have a way out, but it's a little crazy, so you're just gonna have to trust me.
- (CRASHING SOUNDS) - Uh, sure, let's go for it! I'm up for anything at this point.
- Follow me! - Ohh! Even your hands are cold! - (HOOTING) - (SQUEAKING) Let's go! I cannot believe we're doing this! Uh Did everyone see that? Is Is that new? Uhh, let's just say it's complicated.
(CRUMBLING) (CRASHING) Can we avoid going up in towers from now on? Mm (SIGH) Are you okay? (GRUNT) Guys? You wanna have a look at this? (GRUNTING) Time for answers.
Dad? Princess we had orders to recover the scroll, to keep it from you.
Who? Who ordered you? Answer her.
(GULP) Your father.
Why would your father wanna keep this from you? I don't know.
But I'm going to find out.
