Eugene
Steady. Steady. (fireworks exploding) (Max, Pascal and Rapunzel see the Flynnoelum heading towards them)
Uh-oh. (she, Pascal and Maximus run away from the Flynnoelum but Eugene trips and stops holding onto Rapunzel's hair then falls off the cliff)
Eugene
Whoa! Whoa! Aah! (groans) (falls into The Baron's hideout)
You came for me. (he and The Baron see Eugene) Eugene. All right! Do you know this guy? (Eugene holds his injured body)
Eugene
This guy? Unfortunately, I do. Baron! That must be you, right? I mean, I can't really tell because I don't think you're aging very gracefully. Like at all. Have you considered a moisturizing consultant? Because I can put you in touch with my guy. He's very cheap.
Well, it's more like one and a half. If I'm being honest. (chuckling)
Eugene
If you're being honest. (walks to Brock and The Baron) You hush your mouth. You're not even a third of the man I am. (tells Brock)
Break it up! You're obviously the real Rider. (points to Eugene)
Eugene
Aah! Well, thank you for recognizing the genuine article.
Nobody has that fragile, an ego.
So then it's settled. If you could just unlock these shackles, my good man. I'm gonna, tsk, get on of here.
Not so fast. (grabs Eugene) I'm gonna get rid of you both.
Well, it looks like it's up to us, Max. (slides down then sees Eugene, Brock and The Baron at the hideout)
Just knowing this is the last time I'm ever gonna see you. It really brings a smile to my face.
Eugene
Barry. Bobby. Seriously? Last time? Last is so finite.
And I-- Look, honestly, I'm having a hard time making that out as a smile. More of a stern glare.
He's got them both, Pascal. (The Baron turns around and sees Rapunzel and Pascal) (Rapunzel gasps)
Your girlfriend's here. But not for much longer. (Rapunzel runs after he sees her) (he walks to a wall to pull out a rock then water is released and Brock sees it about to rise) Now, if you'll excuse me. (tells Eugene and Brock before climbing up the hideout)
Let them out of there, Baron. (tells Stalyan's dad to free Eugene and Brock)
When this is through, you're gonna wish he had stayed with my Stalyan. (picks up a boulder next to him)
Stalyan has moved on, why can't you? (tells him that his daughter realized that Eugene and Rapunzel are meant for each other)
Because I've got nothing to move on to. (flings a boulder at Rapunzel then he flings another one at her and she falls) (Rapunzel groans)
Uh... Eugene. It occurs to me that since we are about to face our doom, now might-- Now might be a good time to apologize.
Eugene
Actually, no. Now is a good to help me get us out of here.
Will you just listen to me? I'm sorry. I stole your name, but it gave me an instant reputation. Without it, I'm nobody. Just boring old Brock Thunderstrike.
Eugene
Come on, we've gotta-- I'm sorry. What did you say your name was?
Eugene
All right. Sit still. If you can get your wrist close enough, I can pick your lock, and then you can pick mine.
Got it. (Eugene frees Brock) Nice work. Man, you are better than they say. Color me impressed. Whoa. (starts walking away)
Eugene
Thank you very much. Now, could you, please--? N-No. No, where are you gouing?
Sorry, pal. Not my fight. (tells Eugene when he climbs up the rocks) I want your reputation. Not your problems.
Eugene
Come on! If you wanna be Flynn Rider? Go ahead. Leaving someone like this is definitely something Flynn Rider would do. But ask yourself. Is this something Brock Thunderstrike would do? (Brock thinks for a second about either leaving someone or rescuing someone but he leaves) (Eugene tries to free himself from the handcuffs) (Pascal squeaking and Eugene sees him on the ceiling) Oh! Aah. Pascal. There's a lock. Pick-- (the water rise to Eugene's head and holds his breath while Pascal dives into the water then swim to Eugene's utility belt to take a lock pick) (Pascal swims to the handcuffs to free Eugene with the latter's lock pick) (Eugene gasps when he comes out of the water to breathe) All right, frog! (Pascal squeaks when he comes out of the water then Eugene climbs up) (Eugene panting) Oh, thank goodness that's over. (Pascal squeaks when he climbs up)
Eugene
Don't worry. I'll get you-- (tells Rapunzel but The Baron attacks him from going close to her) (The Baron pins Eugene down and picks up a boulder to threaten him)
This is how it ends, Rider. (Rapunzel's frying pan thuds) (The Baron groans and fell on the floor) (Brock Thunderstrike saves Eugene)
Oh, mama. I have to get me one of these. (wants a frying pan)
Eugene
Flynn, you came back. (Brock holds out his hand to help Eugene up)
Yeah, well... Now, Flynn didn't come back. Brock did. (tells Eugene)
Eugene
Oh. Come on! (he and Brock run to help Pascal push the boulder to free Rapunzel's hair from being trapped under it) (Max holds the pillar)
Almost. (Pascal squeaks) I'm free! (Pascal squeaks when he climbs on Rapunzel's hair then her arm and her shoulder) (Max neighs) (Rapunzel twirls her hair as a lasso to pull a boulder while Eugene and Brock push) (Rapunzel, Eugene and Brock are grunting when they move the boulder to a pillar) Run! (Eugene, Brock, Rapunzel and Max dash out of the way) (the pillar starts to rubble) (The Baron grabs Brock's feet to prevent the latter from running)
Aah! Help! Whoa! (Rapunzel and Pascal see that Brock needs to be rescued before the falling pillar traps him) No! (Rapunzel wraps her hair around Brock's waist to save him from the falling pillar while Brock shielded his eyes via his arms) (Brock coughing) (he sees Rapunzel and is amazed) Wow. Weren't we supposed to save you? (asks Rapunzel then Eugene walks to Rapunzel and Brock)
Eugene
(laughs) Yeah, no, she usually does most of the saving. (tells Brock about about Rapunzel) (Pascal squeaks when he holds Rapunzel's tiara and gives it to her while he squeaks)
So I, uh... I guess this is the part where Flynn Rider goes to jail, huh? (Eugene is about to put handcuffs on Brock's hands)
Eugene? (Brock sees that Eugene shakes his hand)
Eugene
(clears throat) Uh, it's true. Yes, Flynn Rider should go to jail. But as it turns out, I only see Brock Thunderstrike standing before me. Just promise me that you'll make your own future and carve out your own identity. And whatever you do, do not let an awesome name like Brock Thunderstrike go to waste, man, because, wow! What a name. That's like a gift from the heavens, you know. (tells Brock)
Well, in, uh-- Ahem. In that case... Princess, Captain. Various pets. (Pascal chitters and Maximus whinnies) Are you pets? I don't even know. (a crab taps Brock and he sees it) Aah! My own pet. (bends down and picks up the crab then puts it on his shoulder) Brock Thunderstrike and my new pet, Hulk the Lightning Claw, bid you adieu. (walks away with his pet)
He's not so bad. (referring to Brock Thunderstrike) (she and Eugene walk to a tree) (Eugene takes the wanted poster of Brock to crumble it up and toss it on the ground)
Eugene
I really don't like him. (also referring to Brock Thunderstrike) (Eugene and Rapunzel walk back to the castle alongside Maximus)
(groans) (the cell door slams)
Eugene
You know, Lance... it's hard to admit this, but they wanted to make me The Captain, I was scared. (he and Lance stop walking while the former talks to the latter about his new job) If I can just open up for a moment. (muffled dialogue) That's when I realize if they believe in me, well, darn it, it's okay for me to believe in me too. And I... (muffled dialogue) ... to accept the position of Captain of the Guard. (chuckles) (hugs Lance) Oh! Why, that feels good to get off my chest. Thanks for listening, buddy. (he and Lance walk to the door) Say, where did you get those medals, by the way? (opens the door while asking Lance)
(shouts) What? What was that? Eugene! Check out the medals! (Eugene is annoyed then holds Lance to push him and they leave the dungeon) (Eugene closes the door)
All right, Team Awesome. Project Obsidian is a success.
Project Obsidian, it's a device that can destroy Cassandra's self-esteem.
"Eugene, we are not attacking Cassandra.
Eugene
Of course, we're not going to attack her, Sunshine, but I'm Captain of the Guard now. I have to be prepared to protect our people from any contingency. But I won't use this thing without your approval.
Princess, believe me, I don't want to hurt Cass either but we can't promise that she's not gonna try to hurt us.
Okay, I will sign it to protect Corona but we won't need it because I know the Cass, we love is still in there somewhere.
Cassandra, please! This is your home. (begs her to stop attacking Corona)
Not anymore! Corona falls today! (starts attacking Varian, Eugene and other citizens)
Eugene
Cassandra, I'm putting a stop to this right now! (he, Varian, Lance and Fidella are mad at Cassandra)
Oooh! This oughta be good.
Eugene
Cass, please. You were like a sister- (begs her to stop)
Eugene
Ow! That was not fair.
MMary
Quick, everyone to the Castle! We'll be safe there! (she, Lance, Feldspar and the citizens of Corona are running to the castle)
Sorry, but the Castle's off limits!(takes the magical Mind Trap from her bag and calls upon a mind-controlled Adira and Hector to barricade the castle's entrance)
Adira! Adira, it's me, Lance. What's wrong? Why is love so fickle?
Eugene
Be careful Lance, it looks like she and Hector are under the influence of the Mind-Trap Talisman!
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I don't wanna fight you! We have to fall back.
Eugene
We are not falling back.
Son, you cannot save a kingdom by being trapped inside it.
Eugene
Everyone, fall back! (he and Varian are dodging the black rocks)(then he sees that Pete is trapped inside a net and Stan tries to take the net off his partner) (sees Mary worried about Shorty while a guard is running) (a woman, an elderly man, Monty, two guards and Feldspar are running to the forest) (Cassandra is attacking Varian and Eugene but they are dodging the black rocks to run to the forest)
Eugene
Rapunzel? Blondie. (Rapunzel wakes up then sees Eugene and her parents smiling at her)
What's going on? (wants to know what happened) (Maximus, Pascal, Varian, Catalina, Kiera, Old Lady Crowley, Monty, Feldspar, Quirin, King Edmund and Lance are also glad that Rapunzel is awake)
Eugene
Thank goodness, you're okay. (hugs Rapunzel)
What happened to Cassandra? (asks Eugene)
Eugene
Oh, Sunshine. I don't know if you should be- (Rapunzel runs out of the Snuggly Duckling and is horrified to see all of Corona completely covered in black rocks, confirming her greatest fear once and for all) (Eugene walks to Rapunzel)
No! I- I don't believe it! (worried about the kingdom while Eugene holds her hand then she is mad) (Varian, Kiera, Catalina, Quirin, Lance, Pascal, Maximus, Feldspar, King Edmund, King Frederic and Queen Arianna are behind Eugene and Rapunzel) (Cassandra is inside the throne room after she conquered Corona)
Eugene
(narrating) This is the story of two best friends. Okay, so they don't look like best friends at the moment. It's, it's complicated. You see, her whole life, Cassandra has felt second best. Going back to when her own mother, Gothel, chose Rapunzel over her. And as a result, Cass has developed, a, uh, a grudge. That little thing there, that's the Moon Stone, and it's the cosmic counterpart to, a-ha you guessed it, to the Sun Drop. The two belong together, but that's not the way Cass sees it. To her, the Moon Stone is her destiny. And now that she has it, she's out to take down Rapunzel, Corona, and anyone, who underestimated ever her.
You have to be careful who you trust.
Eugene
(continues narrating) Not only does Cass have a brainwashed Brotherhood on her side, she also pals with this goat-headed monster. (Milton the Goat bleats then Shorty is shown) No, no, not that one. This one. Zhan Tiri, an ancient, evil demon. Only now, old Zhan Tiri looks like this. Zhan Tiri manipulated this fight between Cass and Rapunzel to gain the power of both the Sundrop and Moonstone. It's enough to make the most resilient hero give up. But good thing this is Rapunzel, we're talking about.
There's got to be a way to fix all, Pascal. But how? (Pascal squeaks)
Did I ever tell you about the biggest fight your aunt and I ever had? we were just teenagers, but Wllow was so mad, she actually built a brick wall in the middle of our bedroom.
I'm not kidding. Your grandfather nearly lost his mind. I tried talking to her through the wall, slipping notes between its cracks, but she refused to talk to me.
(chuckles) What did you wind up doing?
I got a hammer and I knocked that wall down. But after that, Willow saw just how much working things out meant to me. How I wouldn't let anything stand between us. (Rapunzel is feeling down then her mom comforted her) Rapunzel. Only you can get through to Cassandra. (Rapunzel's spirits are lifted and her mom kisses her) (Pascal climbs on Rapunzel's shoulder) (Pascal squeaks)
She's right, Pascal. It's time for the fight of our lives. (exhales) (runs to Maximus then Rapunzel and her mom race back to the Snuggly Duckling while riding on Maximus and Fidella) (Fidella whinnying) Hyah! (wolves barking and howls) (Quirin, King Frederic, King Edmund, Hamuel, Ulf, Big Nose, Vladimir, Kiera, Catalina, Lance, Varian, Eugene, Ruddiger, Monty, Feldspar and Old Lady Crowley are shown at the Snuggly Duckling with their spirits down)
Eugene
Okay, spirits are at an all-time low. Think, what would Rapunzel do? (Ruddiger chatters) Ooh, got it! Hey, haven't any of you had a problem you just couldn't solve? (picks up Ruddiger) One we could sing about, preferably a bouncy tune that makes you forget how bad... everything-oh, come on. We can't just give up.
Yeah! If Eugene can lose an entire kingdom in humiliating defeat and still hold his head up (exhales) then so can we.
That's right. I'm sure our captain has a plan to victory. (chuckles) Poor sap has no idea how doomed we are. Doomed, I tell you! Hold it together, Edmund. (picks up Hamuel after he falls) (takes a deep breath) I believe in you, son.
Eugene
Thank you for the support, Dad. Now, come on, there's got to be a way out of this.
(opens the door) There is, but there's only one way out, and that's through it.
Eugene
Quirin! (he tosses a pitchfork to Quirin and the latter catches it) (Eugene is shocked when he sees the Brotherhood mark on Quirin's hand before the latter joins the troops)
Eugene
Ha. No one can rally up the troops like you. (kisses Rapunzel) Thanks, sunshine.
You're welcome. Huh. You know, all this time, I've never come up with a cute little nickname for you.
Eugene
Well, I've already got three names and two of them are awful, so I think we're good. (Hamuel squwaks) (Shorty is wrestling Hamuel) Do you really think we stand a chance? Cass has the Moon Stone, the Brotherhood... and we've got (Eugene and Rapunzel are looking at Shorty and Hamuel)
(groans) You're being rude!
Eugene
Not to mention Zhan Tiri. I mean, I don't think any of us are up to fighting an ancient evil demon creature.
Neither was Lord Demanitus. (finished drinking milk) (Rapunzel and Eugene walk back inside the Snuggly Duckling) When I was researching the Scroll, I found out Demanitus banished Zhan Tiri to some kind of netherworld, but the machine he used to do it was dismantled centuries ago.
If I had the plans, but Demanitus took his only blueprints to his tomb.
Eugene
(chuckles) Let me guess: The tomb is thousand years old and no one knows where it is.
Well, I, I wouldn't say no one knows.
Eugene
I've got a bad feeling about this. (wind blowing) Snow. (echoing): Why did it have to be snow? (going to the tomb with Rapunzel, Pascal, Varian, Kiera, Catalina, Lance and Maximus)
What did you two see at the castle? (Pascal squeaking as he camouflages himself as Hector's binturong, Hector, Hector's rhinoceros and Adira) I was right. She has the Brotherhood standing guard.
Eugene
We'll have to take them out to get inside so that Varian can bulild that machine.
Meanwhile, I'll track Cass down. One way or the other, I'm going to get the Moon Stone.
Such pluck in the face of adversity. She'll certainly make an excellent daughter-in-law one day.
Eugene
Dad, you are thinking out loud again. (annoyed)
No, I wasn't. (winks and walks away)
Mm, that reminds me. (turns around to Eugene) Aren't we about due for one of us to stumble through an awkward proposal?
Eugene
(laughs) Right. Whose turn is it again? Look, I know everything is going to work out. But in case it doesn't--
It will. And no matter what happens today, you are still and will always be my dream, Eugene. (kisses Eugene's hand while holding it)
Eugene
And you are mine, Rapunzel.
Hey, Dad, here. I found this with your old stuff. (Quirin turns around when Varian walks to him) I gave it a little polish. (hands the helmet to his dad)
I never thought I'd have to wear this again. But now that I must... (puts his helmet on) I am proud to have my son fighting alongside me. (Varian smiles at his dad then they are having a father and son moment)
Eugene
Okay, troops, suit up. (Ulf ran past Varian and his father)
All right, everyone, you know the plan. Charge the castle, build that machine, open the portal, and send Zhan Tiri back to the netherworld. Now let's move out! (everyone cheering as they follow Rapunzel, Eugene and Lance) (Hamuel squawks while flying upside down) (yelling)
Eugene
It's locked. (Ruddiger roars as he breaks the door open) It's unlocked. (everyone is yelling as they stormed the castle but Maximus is keeping an eye out then everyone storms the throne room) (confused murmurs)
Eugene
I don't know. But let's just get that machine build before they get back. All right? (Varian walks behind Fidella)
I'm going to find Cassandra.
Eugene
Sunshine, good luck. (Pascal squeaks)
(leaves the throne room with Pascal and enters the hallway but finds Zhan Tiri)
"Looking for someone? That old fool, Demanitus, would be proud of how far you've come, Princess."
"To be clear, we are talking about the old same fool who outsmarted you and trapped you in oblivion for over two millennia?"
"Joke all you want, but the eclipse is upon us."
What, what, what's happening?"
(her blonde glows via her heavenly Sundrop abilities, and she starts to feel weakened by the solar eclipse)
And...there. (tightening the screw) Okay, just pull that lever, and we've got ourselves a trans-dimensional portal. Heh, heh.
Eugene
Oh, you weren't kidding. That was fast.
Okay, we've just got to make sure everyone is clear of the portal or else, you know, they'll end up in limbo right along with Zhan Tiri. Quirin is still under the control of the Mind Trap and walks towards the lever)
Eugene
Although, I got to admit, this all feels a little too easy. (Varian looks at Eugene then Varian and Eugene look the other way to see Quirin)
(yells) For Cassandra! (pulls the lever and his helmet reveals to have a temporary stun mechanism then Varian and Eugene notice this) (Eugene and Varian alongside Feldspar, Ulf and Vladimir see that Quirin is being under the control of the Mind Trap) (Quirin's helmet is temporary stunning him) (groans and falls backwards) (Varian is worried)
Dad, Dad, don't worry. (he and Eugene run to Quirin to check on him) You'll be okay, I promise.
Eugene
What happened? (puts hand on Varian's shoulder to comfort him while asking him while everyone is also depressed of what happened to Quirin)
I thought about what you said, so I took precautions. I rigged his helmet with a temporary stun mechanism. (feeling down)
Eugene
Score one for Team Awesome! (proud of what Varian did) (chuckle)
Eugene
Let's say we get him someplace more comfortable, huh? (Eugene tells Varian that they will take Quirin somewhere while the former is comforting the latter then the latter smiles and nods)
