MMary
Well, hello, Princess!
Looking good up there, Monty! Red and Angry, welcome... to New, Old Corona! (Lance gives Kiera a friendly punch on the cheek and she moves her head away a bit then she touches her face)
You know, it's about time, you guys decided to settle down near us. (tells Kiera and Catalina)
We were getting kinda sick of life on the road. (kicks a rock) Never knowing what you're gonna eat, or where you're gonna stay. I mean, you should see the treehouse we've been staying in. (Catalina interrupted her)
Eugene
With the Princess' initiative to rebuild Old Corona, you're gonna have your choice of places to live! (tells Kiera and Catalina)
Ugh! What is with you? (turns and sees that her sister is acting strange) You're acting weird.
It's just... (sigh) (her necklace sparle) I like the treehouse. (feeling down when telling Kiera)
Ugh! Not this again, Red. Look, this is what is best for us.
EEarl
Your majesty! Help!
EEarl
It's my sheep. Come quick! (Pascal squeaks) (sheep bleating)
What are they doing up there? (sees the sheep on a hill)
EEarl
Something's got them scared.
EEarl
I'm not sure, but the same thing happened to my neighbor's flock. In fact, livestock all over Corona's been acting strange.
Don't worry, we'll get to the bottom of this. Max, do your thing. (Maximus neighs, sniffing) (Catalina hears the bushes rustle and she squint her eyes) (werewolf growling) (Catalina gasps when she is shocked to see Kiera's hand on her shoulder)
Come on! (tells Catalina) (Kiera runs then Catalina runs after her) (werewolf growling when it sees Kiera and Catalina walking away) (werewolf snarls) (Max sniffing) (Max neighing) (Rapunzel, Eugene, Kiera, Catalina, Lance and Maximus see animal prints)
Eugene
These look like wolf prints. (Kiera bends on her knees to measure the animal prints)
If they are, that is one big wolf. (tells Rapunzel, Eugene, Catalina, Lance and Maximus)
No, this is something else. (see the prints) These tracks aren't side by side. Whatever made them walks on two feet.
That can't be right. (she, Catalina, Rapunzel, Pascal, Eugene, Lance and Maximus see a person on a tree branch) (Maximus neighs)
Uh, are you sure about that? (asks Kiera) Let's move! (she, Eugene and Lance run after a person) (a person jumped off cliffs followed by Rapunzel and two of her friends) (Eugene and Lance thud then a person is running away) Eugene, Lance, come on stay on it! (Eugene and Lance run after a person while Rapunzel goes a different direction) (a person tries to escape but Rapunzel's hair whipping when it ties around a person's feet and hands to tree branches)
(growling, snarling) (heavy breathing) (Pascal squeaks) (Rapunzel reach for a mask and pulls it up to see who is wearing it) (Captain Creighton yells) (Rapunzel, Eugene and Lance shriek) (Rapunzel puts the mask back on Captain Creighton's face)
Who are you? (Captain Creighton lifts her mask up)
Captain Creighton, world-class big game tracker, at your service. Do you treat all of Corona's guests this way? (Eugene, Lance, Kiera, Catalina and Maximus are mad at Captain Creighton)
Shouldn't we be impressed or disgusted? (Captain Creighton burps) (Pascal squeaks when he fainted due to Captain Creighton burps) Disgusted, it is.
So, uh, Captain, what is a world-class tracker doing in Corona?
Okay, yeah, that's on me. (Kiera and Catalina giggling) (Maximus neighs) I could've been more specific. Tracking what?
Uh, that thing that's been terrizing your sheep? A werewolf. (Pascal squeaks when he wakes up while being scared) Now, who do I gotta slug to get a glass of water around here, huh? (Maximus whinnying)
Eugene
Did you just say werewolf? (asks Captain Creighton when she is smacking lips then she pulls out a book and it thuds on the table)
It's all right here in this book. What we are dealing with here is Maledicta Lupus, the Wolf's Curse. But, for you laymen, a werewolf. (Rapunzel, Eugene, Kiera, Catalina and Lance gasp) The wolf's curse travels the globe... in search of host bodies. (werewolf growl) It feeds on untapped rage, so it's ideal host is someone who harbors a deep-seated anger. It inhabits his body, and causes him to turn into a raging werewolf every full moon... for the rest of his life! (book slams) And here's where it gets interesting. The wolf has found a new home here in Corona.
"Who is it?", If I knew that, you think I'd be wasting my time with you milksops? The wolf can be anybody! (Rapunzel, Eugene and Lance gasp) (Maximus neighs) But the good news is I'm not just tracking this thing. (pulls out her crossbow and reveals it) (her crossbow slams) I'm not leaving Corona until I've destroyed it. (Pascal squeaks)
Hmm... (puts her hands on Eugene) (Rapunzel clears throat)
Eugene
Uh-oh. (Maximus neighs) (Rapunzel walks to Captain Creighton)
Let me be clear, Captain. (takes Captain Creighton's feet off the table when she is mad) You will not be destroying anything in my kingdom. (tells Captain Creighton) (Rapunzel and Pascal are mad at Captain Creighton)
Oh, I'm not sure you can stop me. (tells Rapunzel)
Ow! (Rapunzel sees her outside) Oh, you're making a huge mistake! (tells Rapunzel)
I will take ch-- (door slams) I didn't time that right. (turns around) I wanted to slam it after "chance."
Eugene
We knew what you were going for, yeah. (Maximus whinnying) (Lance holds a turkey leg and eats it)
Okay, guys. (takes the book from Eugene and flips pages) There is a werewolf out there, and we have to take action. (tells Eugene, Lance and Maximus)
Uh, excuse me, uh, Princess, ha, just a question here. Uh, was throwing out the werewolf hunter out of the castle the best idea? (Rapunzel turns around and closes the book when telling Lance)
But, you heard her! She wants to destroy the monster. Well, that monster is one of my subjects.
Eugene
So, we have to find it before she can.
So, the plan is we do this quietly. (tells Eugene, Lance and Maximus) We do not want a panic on our hands. (walks to the door to open it) (mob yelling) (Rapunzel smiles at the mob but she closes the door) (Pascal squeaks) (turns around to tell Eugene and Lance) Okay, we're gonna need a new plan.
Eugene
Uncle Monty, the werewolf! Come on! No way!
Forgive me, Princess, but that's-- (laughing) I mean, that's just... That's just crazy talk. (Rapunzel turns around)
Come on. You've never once suspected Monty had a darker side? (puts the book on the table to ask Eugene and Lance but they shake heads no) (Rapunzel sighs and she puts her head down) (Pascal squeaks) Okay, fine! (she lifts up her head) But, he has the mark! We should at least investigate that. (points to the illustration of a paw print on a page)
If Red's anywhere, this is where she'd be. (she, Rapunzel, Pascal, Eugene and Lance are worried about Catalina) (a torn curtain blows but Raps push it away to see a broken bowl, a log and three boards) (Rapunzel, Kiera, Eugene and Lance enter the treehouse to find Catalina) (Raps sees Catalina snuggling on a blanket) (Rapunzel walks closer to Catalina)
I'm not the monster. (Rapunzel stops holding the book and walks up the stairs)
No one said you were a monster. (Catalina closes her eyes when she feels down) (Raps goes closer to Catalina to comfort her) (Raps pulls the blanket from Catalina's head) (Catalina turns around) (Rapunzel smears one of the markings on Catalina's face away to reveal the wolf's mark)
I-- I'm sorry. (apologizes to Rapunzel, Kiera, Pascal, Eugene and Lance)
Red... how did this happen? (asks Catalina)
Last month, when you decided we needed to settle down, I wanted to tell you that I liked it out here. I wasn't ready to move, but... you wouldn't hear me. (a flashback of Catalina telling Kiera that the former loves to stay at the treehouse) (then a flashback of Catalina walking to the woods and Kiera watching) I went for a walk that night, and that... (a wolf appears behind Catalina and she turns around) was when it found me. (wolf snarling then it ran away when it releases a mist near Catalina) (mist shimmering and Catalina turns around to see it) (mist takes a form of a wolf and wolf growling) It told me it could help me be heard. That it could use all of my angry feelings and give me what I want. All I had to do was let it. (the mist shimmering when it lifted Catalina and it went inside her) (the flashback ends)
You should've told me, Red.
Guys, the important thing is there's a way out of this. (holds Captain Creighton's book) This has a ritual that get rid of the wolf, but we can only do it on the final night of the full moon. (telling Kiera and Catalina)
That's tonight. (he and Eugene walk to Rapunzel, Kiera and Catalina)
Now, here's the tricky part. (she, Kiera and Catalina turn around) It has to be done on mystical ground, and the only place like that around is...
Eugene
Janus Point. (finishes Rapunzel's sentence) (he and Lance look at each other)
Hey, remember that art teacher who brought us out here for her painting class, heh? Whatever happened to her? (asks Eugene)
Eugene
Well, she turned out to be a hideous she-demon who tried to steal your very soul. (also remembers Sugracha the Eternal)
Oh, right. Right. (feeling down)
Okay, Red. All you have to do now is repeat what I say. (turns around to tell Catalina) (Kiera holds her sister's hand) (Kiera smiles) I swear this wolf away.
I-- I swear this wolf away.
Not to give in to its rage. Wolf be gone!
Not to give in to its rage. Wolf be... (mad and stops saying the ritual)
Red, you can do it. Just say it. (Catalina turns around to Eugene, Lance and Maximus)
Eugene
It's okay, kid, you're almost there. (tells Catalina)
Come on, Red. You have to. (tells her sister) (Catalina turns around to her sister) (Catalina stops holding Kiera's hand and backs away mad)
I don't want to! Maybe I like being the wolf! (put her hands on her chest) Maybe-- maybe I'm tired of everyone telling me what to do! (walks backwards away from Kiera, Rapunzel, Eugene, Lance and Max) And I'm sick of people assuming I'm okay, just because I won't say I'm not! (climbs on tree stump) And another thing, I don't even like the name Red! I only went along with it because everyone expected me to! (mad but tells Raps, Eugene, Lance, Kiera and Max) (Raps and Eugene are sad)
Told you you shouldn't have given them nicknames. (tells Eugene) (Maximus neighs)
What if I wanted to be the angry one? Just once, I wanted to call the shots! Being the wolf lets me do that!
I'm sorry. (apologizes) I didn't mean to be so bossy. We can figure this out, together. But let's just finish this. (tells Catalina then Captain Creighton shows up)
Doesn't matter if you finish. This whole "ritual" is bunk. I added it to the book, so I'd know when and where the wolf would be. Thanks, Princess.
Leave the girl alone! (drops the book to protect Catalina from Captain Creighton) (Raps tells Captain Creighton) (Raps, Pascal and Catalina are mad at Captain Creighton)
She ain't a girl anymore. She's a monster, and the sooner you realize that, the better. (Catalina growling, snarl) (Kiera sees her sister is transforming to a werewolf) (Catalina snarling) (Catalina's clothes rip) (Rapunzel, Eugene, Pascal, Lance, Kiera, Max and Captain Creighton see Catalina as a werewolf) (Catalina growling) (Catalina howl) (Captain Creighton is going to aim at Catalina) (Raps stops Captain Creighton's weapon)
Ground floor please, Ulf. (tells Ulf to pull the gazebo to the first floor then she steps off) (Eugene is eating an apple)
I brought some of the princess' old paintings from the castle! Thought they might spruce the place up. (returns to the treehouse with the box of Rapunzel's paintings then he puts the box on the floor) (holds a painting of himself) Best one of a bunch. Look at that. Hoo! (turns the painting around) So handsome. (Rapunzel, Eugene, Kiera, Catalina and Pascal laughing)
Thanks so much for fixing this place up for us, Rapunzel. (Eugene turns around to put his apple on a barrel)
Aw. I'm just glad we found a way for you guys to stay close by after all. (tells Kiera and Catalina)
Eugene
Yeah! Not quite civilized, not quite the wild. I'd say it's picture perfect. (squats on his knees) But just promise me if you ever need anything, you know, like, help managing the... (growl) then you're gonna ask for it. (tells Catalina when he puts his hand on her)
I promise. (tells Eugene)
Because the last thing we want is for you to bury your anger again. (Kiera looks at her sister then they and Psscal nod their heads) That never helped anyone. (takes then holds a painting of her and Cassandra) (puts the painting back into the box)
Okay everyone. After the Saporian attack, this kingdom could use a real pick-me-up. And what better way to bring everyone together than with a community project?
Eugene
Woo hoo!
With a little hard work, and a whole lot of Corona spirit, we can rebuild this kingdom. So, let's do it! (toss the shovels to everyone)
Eugene
Ha, ha!
Hey! I have the artistic eye!
You dip, I paint! (indistinct arguments) (Maximus and Ruddiger growl) (arguments continue)
Eugene
I know this is typically your thing, Sunshine, but if you're trying to bring everyone together, maybe grueling manual labor isn't the best idea? (Rapunzel chops wood with an axe)
Don't think of it as grueling manual labor. Think of it as creativity through destruction. (loud rumbling)
Oh, now look what you made me do!
That was your fault, you loafer!
Loafer?! I've never been so insulted! (Rapunzel runs to him and Old Lady Crowley to stop the argument)
Feldspar! Old Lady, uh, Mrs. Crowley, let's not fight! Yes, we were supposed to keep that wall, but, hey! This just gives more to do together. (Feldspar and Old Lady Crowley groaning)
This is why Crowley works alone. (leaves)
(clears throat) I'll go get glue. (leaves) (wall clatters)
(coughing) (sees a map) "Here lies King Herz Der Sonne's "lost treasure"? (turns around) (laughing) You guys, wait! This is an honest to goodness treasure map!
I have heard "The Legend of Herz Der Soone's" Lost Treasure. It is said to be buried in his crypt. The tale begins millennia ago--
Eugene
Uh, Xaves, bottom line us, would you?
This is just the thing to bring everyone together!
How many of you have ever dreamed of having a treasure of untold riches?
Mm... untold riches. Now, this is living. Don't you agree, Lance made of caviar.
I'll take them all. (six unicorns neighing) (Vladimir laughing) (Maximus neighing when he sits on a carriage pulled by Lance and Eugene)
We are holding a Corona-wide race for the lost treasure of Herz Der Sonne!
All right! (everyone cheering)
But, wait! It gets better. Because this is about having fun together, everyone will be racing with a partner! (Varian and the others groaning)
Vladimir Who picks our partners?
Rapunzel Ah, ah! Not who... (pulls off the sheet to reveal an invention) What.
Eugene
Couldn't we have just pulled names out of a hat? (asks Rapunzel) (Catalina, Varian, Xavier and Lance are looking at Eugene)
Oh, but it is a hat! I call it the "Horotory Automated Team-builder." Or HAT. (takes the paper off) (squeaking) (Gregorio snort, grunting) (bell ringing) (hammering) (clicking) (balls roll down the tube) (clicking, clanking) (picks up the balls) And our first team is... Stan and...
Angry! (toss the red and blue balls away)
What? This is an outrage! It's Stan and Pete. Everyone knows it's always Stan and Pete! (Stan comforts Pete)
Yeah! And I don't wanna be paired up with some dopey guard.
You're not paired up with some dopey guard. (tells Kiera) You're paired up with-- (points to himself) Oh... (knows that Kiera is his partner for the race) (machine clicking, clanking)
Pascal and... Max! Aw, cute! (toss the balls away) (Pascal squeak) (Maximus snort) (Pascal squeal) (Maximus nicker) (machine clank) Xavier... and Varian! (Varian turns his head and sees Xavier is his partner) Ruddiger... and Hamuel! (toss the balls away) (Hamuel caws) (Ruddiger chitters) Eugene... and, of course, Lance. (toss the balls away)
Eugene
(laughing) Are you kidding me? Me and Lance together, searching for treasure? Just give it to us right now, folks.
And finally... Me... and Feldspar! (toss the balls) (laughs) (runs to Feldspar) Up high! Feldspar. Come on!
Oh, please, don't hit me! Oh! Oh, I get it. It's a-- a gesture of camaraderie. Well, then I'm all in. Up high, woo-hoo! Ow.
Okay, everyone! (Pete, Stan, Monty, Vladimir, Varian, Ruddiger, Xavier, Max and Pascal walk to the map) Take a good look at the map. Be sure to memorize it because you cannot take it with you. It's up to you and your partner, or, heh, should I say, your new bestie, to find your way to the treasure.
On your mark, get set... (puts the fire at the back of a cannon then it shoots Hamuel) (cannon blasts) (Hamuel caws) Treasure! (Vladimir, Monty, Xavier, Varian, Ruddiger, Pascal, Maximus and Pete are racing)
Eugene
It's sad, really. (Rapunzel stops running to turn around) All these people getting their hopes up, when Lance and I are, (laugh) obviously going to win. (talking about Varian, Xavier, Kiera, Stan, Catalina, Pete, Ruddiger, Hamuel, Pascal, Max, Vladimir, Monty, Old Lady Crowley, Shorty, Rapunzel and Feldspar searching for treasure)
Oh. I'll tell you what will be sad. The look on your face when me and my partner get to the treasure first. Right, Feldspar?
Ooh! (groaning) Does anyone have any butter? (Rapunzel and Eugene free him from a wheel) (Feldspar grunt) Ah, thank you. (walks away)
Eugene
You guys are gonna do just fine. In second place. (walks back to the table)
(mocking laughter) Laugh now, but Feldspar and I are gonna be a force to be reckoned with. Right, Feldspar? Feldspar?
Wouldn't you just know it? I did it again.
Eugene
(clears throat) Another tea cake? (asks Lance)
Why not? (Eugene gives the pastry to him)
Eugene
Yeah. It's not like we're in a hurry.
Say, is that a new watch? (asks Eugene)
Eugene
Why, yes, it is, old chap. I bought it with some of the gold we're going to be getting from the treasure. (tells Lance)
(chuckle) Good for you. Some days, you just gotta treat yourself.
Eugene
Speaking of the treasure though, old buddy, maybe we'd better not take this race lightly. (pours tea into a cup while telling Lance) I mean, after all, everyone in Corona is competing. (he and Lance laughing) I'm sorry. I just have to go there. I know, I know. It's the oldest joke ever, but I couldn't help myself! And I just can't keep a straight face. We are so gonna get that treasure first. (sips his tea)
(laugh) Ah, you said it. Ah! Food coma, here we come. (goes to sleep)
Eugene
I'm way ahead of you, bud. (goes to sleep too)
Eugene
Lance! (yells)
Who? What? Where? (wakes up confused while icing is on his face and collar)
Eugene
We have overslept. If we don't hurry, we're not gonna win that treasure! (tells Lance)
Ah! Cavier Lance! (he and Eugene run to the treasure before Varian, Xavier, Kiera, Stan, Catalina, Pete, Shorty, Ruddiger, Hamuel, Pascal, Maximus, Vladimir, Monty, Rapunzel and Feldspar)
And so, it is my honor to present to you... our brand new throne room. (cuts the ribbon) (Stan, Pete, Maximus, Pascal, Ruddiger, Monty, Feldspar, Kiera, Catalina, Varian, Xavier and Vladimir enter the throne room)
The treasure hunt didn't go quite how I planned, but it did bring everyone together.
(sigh) Even I never got to meet (sniff) Cavier Lance, it was so exciting.
Eugene
You know, Sunshine, I think it all kinds turned out well for everyone. (he and Rapunzel put their arms around each other)
A couple of shoes, no, but other then that very very...
Alright, Eugene, agenda me.
Eugene
Okie dokie. We're gonna start off with what promises to be tons of fun, the semi-annual wheat crop report. (Raps takes three papers out of her bag and hand those to Eugene but he toss them to Lance)
Already reviewed, and I know you were kidding, but, believe it or not, it was fun. (tells Eugene and Lance)
Eugene
Next, you've gotta approve the design for the castle's new footbridge. (Raps takes the decree of the footbridge to Eugene)
Did it this morning. (Eugene hands the plans to her) In fact, while I was it, I designed a few more footbridges. Or would it be feetbridge?
Eugene
Woof!
What? (hands the design to Lance) I'm used to getting a lot done by 7:15. (a maid walks by Rapunzel, Eugene and Lance)
What about breakfast? (asks Rapunzel)
Breakfast? I eat motivation for breakfast. (Pascal squeaks) (Pascal snags a pastry to give Rapunzel then the latter holds it) (Pascal squeaks) Well, and cherry croissants. (eats it) Thanks, Pascal. (Eugene walks to the entrance of Cassandra's bedroom and he is spooked by her dummy)
Eugene
(chuckle) You know, I gotta say, Sunshine, even I-- Ah!
Eugene
Oh, that's rich. Cass isn't even here, and she still finds a way to annoy me. (cart squeaking) (Old Lady Crowley exits Cassandra's bedroom with Cassandra's belongings)
Mrs. Crowley, what are you doing with Cassandra's things? (walks to her and asks) (Rapunzel walks to Cassandra's belongings)
Meh. She's gone. So now it's junk. (takes and holds Cassandra's helmet) (Rapunzel turns around)
Now, just a minute. I have faith that Cass will return, so kindly put her things back where you found them.
Sure. While I'm at it, are there any beds you would like me to unmade, or trash that needs to be brought back in, Your Highness? (Pascal grumbles)
No, no. I guess I'll just do it. (Old Lady Crowley gives Cassandra's helmet to Rapunzel)
Help yourself. I'm on my break. (tells Rapunzel and leaves) The rest of her stuff is in the storage vault. (Pascal squeak)
