Eugene Fitzherbert quotes from Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure

Eugene

Your majesty, Captain! May I present the Silent Strikers!

"They're...children?"

Wow! Captain! Figured that out by yourself, or did your ace detectives tipped you off?

"We can't send two children in jail. But, we can’t let those two criminals go either."

Lance

"You sure about letting them go?"

Eugene

"They'll be back. When they're ready."

How am I ever gonna do this?

Eugene

Relax. Your parents will be back soon.

Eugene, please. Take good care of Rapunzel.

Eugene

We are going to get you out of here! Besides, you should know by now that Rapunzel doesn't need anyone to take care of her!

Eugene

Hey! Celebratory cupcake, huh?

Rapunzel

No. Uh, no, thank you.

Eugene

Hello? Blondie? Come on. You kicked butt and saved the day. What are you upset about?

Rapunzel

Eugene, today, I turned my back on a desperate friend in need. I sent the man I love to face possible death, and then did the same to my oldest friend. I entrusted the entire welfare of Corona to a fairytale. In a lot of ways, today was the most difficult day of my life.

Eugene

Sweetheart, what are you saying?

Rapunzel

I'm not sure I want to be queen.

Eugene

Hey, Rapunzel, I know today was overwhelming and I can't say I wouldn't be feeling the same way. But you becoming queen is a long time away. Just know that when that time comes, no matter what you decide, I will be right here with you.

Rapunzel

(smiles, hugs him) Thank you for bringing my parents home.

Eugene

Hey, you got it.

Cassandra

Sounds like painter's block.

Princess Rapunzel

Painter's block? You mean like writer's block?

Cassandra

Yeah. You're just having a hard time being creative, is all.

Lance

What the Princess needs is a way to punch through the painter's block.

Eugene

Or what she needs is a little inspiration.

Princess Rapunzel

That's it! Come on, Pascal! Let's go find some real inspiration.

Princess Rapunzel

It was just like the dream I had after my coronation, only more intense. It was like it was trying to tell something.

Cassandra

Tell you what?

Princess Rapunzel

I don't know. The rocks, my hair, Varian- It's like they're all connected and I need to find out how.

Eugene

Sorry to interrupt here, but is anyone else a little concerned as to how Rapunzel woke up suspended in midair?

Princess Rapunzel

Eugene, was I saw meant something.

Eugene

OK, let's say it did. But what if it was a warning? Telling you to stay in the castle, where you're safe? We got it pretty good here, right? Why don't you leave the mystery behind these rocks alone.

Rapunzel

No, I can't. I need answers and I think I know where to start looking.

The kite! It's just like the one from my dream! There's a note- from Varian:

Cassandra

Who are "they"?

Eugene

It's always something with that kid.

Eugene

What do you wanna do?

I'm sorry, Dad. We gotta go to Old Corona.

Rapunzel

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 connected to it, maybe even responsible for it.

Eugene

What do you wanna do?

Princess Rapunzel

I'm sorry, Eugene. I've already let Varian down once. He wants us to get that graph-tic and that's what we're gonna do.

Princess Rapunzel

Oh no. It's Varian's father.

Eugene

Blondie, you OK?

Princess Rapunzel

Maybe you were right. Maybe my dream was telling me to stay in the castle, where I belong.

Rapunzel, what are you talking about?

Princess Rapunzel

I touched those rocks and now this.

Eugene

Oh, come now. We don't know if any of this is your fault.

Princess Rapunzel

We don't know that it's not.

Cassandra

Slow down, Rapunzel! Your hair touches these things and we're goners!

Eugene

Yeah! What she said.

Princess Rapunzel

We don't have much time before he gets free!

Cassandra

Who was that?

Princess Rapunzel

I don't know, but it must have been who Varian was trying to warn us about. Whoa!

Eugene

Is there any way to stop this guy!?

Eugene

And this is where Mother Gothel fell to her doom. Um, guys, we have company.

Princess Rapunzel

You have got to be kidding me!!

Cassandra

Dad?

Princess, we had orders to take the scroll, to keep it from you.

Princess Rapunzel

Who? Who ordered you?

Cassandra

Answer her!

Your father.

Eugene

Why would your father wanna keep this from you?

Princess Rapunzel

I don't know. (firmly) But I'm gonna find out.

Eugene

So, I guess it's a pretty safe bet that Corona won't be hosting a daddy-daughter dance anytime soon? (laughs) (Rapunzel and Pascal stop pacing and looks at him angrily) (Pascal squeaks) Yeah, sorry, not the time for jokes. (Rapunzel sits next to him)

Princess Rapunzel

(sighs) I'm not sure what's going on, but I know Corona's in some kind of danger. And I feel like I'm the only one who wants to do anything about it.

Eugene

No, no you're not. Listen. Blondie, no matter what we're up against, I'm with you all the way.

Princess Rapunzel

I know, thank you, I just... (sighs) I think I need some time alone.

Eugene

Understood. (about to leave) You know... Things do seem pretty dark right now, but if anyone can find a light, it's you. (Rapunzel smiles) I've got a feeling everything's gonna be okay. (hears Stan) (opens the door)

Stan

Quit being so mean, Pete!

Pete

Wait! All I said was your breath smells like tree-rot, you are a sub-standard croquet player, and previous instances where I asserted you had a lovely singing voice were patently false. (gasps) (Stan gasps and turns around)

Stan

You've always loved my voice! (Rapunzel runs to Pete and Stan)

Princess Rapunzel

Pete! What are you doing? Stan's your best friend!

Pete

I know, I can't help it! It's like... I have to say whatever's on my mind!

Stan

Oh, yeah? Well, you have cookie crumbs on your cheek. (points to Pete's cheek) (runs) (Stan sobbing)

Pete

Stan, wait! I'm sorry! (runs after Stan to apologize) (Eugene walks to Rapunzel)

Eugene

You've got enough on your plate, Blondie. Go get some rest. I'll handle this. (walks to the same direction as Pete and Stan)

Princess Rapunzel

(sighs) (goes back to her room to sleep on her bed) (having a dream) (waltz music playing) (opens the door and walks into the throne room)

King Frederic

Rapunzel, there you are!

Princess Rapunzel

Dad, what it all this? (dancing with her dad)

King Frederic

Look, darling, I feel horrible about the way we left things, and, well, I'm hoping to make it up to you.

Princess Rapunzel

Oh, Dad, I'm so relieved to hear that-- (crackling) Ah! (people screaming) Oh! (crackling and rumbling) (panting) (groans)

Varian

Stop running, Rapunzel. (appears behind Rapunzel)

Princess Rapunzel

(turns around and sees Varian) (gasps) (Varian bends down to pick up Rapunzel's hair then holds her hair)

Varian

Face your destiny, or all you hold in your heart will be in grave danger. (tells Rapunzel) (tense music)

Princess Rapunzel

Uh... (Rapunzel wakes up and sees her glowing and it knocks the clock and her journal off the nightstands (Pascal squeaking) No, Pascal! (runs to grab her pet when he has tied up) (Pascal squeaks) Oh, Pascal! I would never do anything to hurt you. Come on.

Cassandra

It can be hard to look away from shiny things, huh, buddy?

Eugene

The royal chef just told me my ears were too big for my head.

Cassandra

(laughs) What? No... It's just your head's too small for your ears.

Eugene

No, no, seriously, people are acting really strange.

Cassandra

Then you're gonna love this. (walks to the door) (Eugene walks to Cassandra then she opens the door)

Huh? I once dropped the king's éclair on the floor, but gave it to him anyway. Uh-oh! (put his hands on his mouth)

Nigel

(in British accent) People are often impressed by my regal accent, but the truth is, (in American accent) I really sound like this. (put his hands on his mouth) Oh! (runs away) (Eugene closes the door)

Eugene

Yeah, we might wanna look into this. (tells Cassandra)
