KKeeper
Now, then, Calliope, show me what you have learned.
(clears throat) Well, here we have the masks of Alastros. This, of course, is a, Snafarian sarcophagus, and here-- (gasps) Hmm. That's strange. The Shapeshifting Cloak of Retudnus is missing.
KKeeper
Never mind that, child. Tell me, where is the Mind Trap?
(scoffs) You mean, the talisman that can control the minds of any who've sworn loyalty to the Moonstone? Or like, the Brotherhood?
KKeeper
Yes. Now, where is it?
(scoffs) Why, locked away in an enchanted box that can only be opened with a key that I possess.
KKeeper
Then I'll need that key now. (pulls off the Shapeshifting Cloak of Retudnus to reveal Cassandra) (Baby Kurlock snarling)
CassandraThe key. (Baby Kurlock snarling) (Calliope runs away) (Cassandra is mad)
(grunts, pants) (grunting) (opens the door to a room and closes it after entering alongside the Baby Kurlock) Guard the door, buddy. (runs to a desk) (Baby Kurlock snarling) Where is it? Where is it? Not that one. Oh, aha. (trying to find the correct bottle and grabs it) (writes a note) (crashing at door) (grunts) Darn cork! (gasps) Uh-oh. (Baby Kurlock growling) (Calliope puts the key and rolls the note) (Cassandra opens the door and enters)
Cassandra
Stay. (traps the Baby Kurlock) (Baby Kurlock gasps, snarls) Give me that key or I will tear your precious Spire apart.
It is pronounced, "spa-yer." (hides the bottle with the key inside and puts the note inside while hiding it behind her back) (Cassandra starts attacking her) Why do you need the mind trap anyway? (asks Cassandra) There're so much other great stuff here. There's the Pan Flute of Hawthorne. (inhales deeply, then plays notes) The Mask of Icarus, or the Hard Candies of Ambrosia. Mmm, these things are so good. Want one? Oh. (coughs) Eh, heh, heh.
Cassandra
That was a poor choice. (walks to Calliope and threatens her) (Calliope whimpers) Where did you send it?
Cassandra
(grunts, sighs) It's no use. I can't get to the Mind-trap talisman.
Then it looks like we'll need that key after all.
Cassandra
Calliope sent it Rapunzel. And something tells me she won't just hand it over to us.
To us? No. But we may have other methods at our disposal.
"Clearly someone wanted people to think Gothel or her ghost was back. The question is-"
Cassandra
"Why?"
"What are you doing here?"
Cassandra
"My friend told me there were suspicious things going on."
"Your friend!? Listen, Cass, that little friend-"
Cassandra
"You don't belong here!!"
PRPrincess Rapunzel
"Whoa. I knew she was vain, but..."
Cassandra
"What is this stuff?"
PRPrincess Rapunzel
"Look! The Sundrop. The sun incantation! Gothel was alive a long time."
Gothel (via mirror diary): "Good morning, Beautiful."
PRPrincess Rapunzel and Cassandra
"Mother!?"
PRPrincess Rapunzel
"And she's talking to herself. Looks like these can trap images and play them back, like a diary or something."
Cassandra
"And I thought your journal was-"
Cassandra
"Less annoying than this. Happy now?"
PRPrincess Rapunzel
"Yes I am."
"Well, that's typical Gothel for you."
Cassandra
"What do you mean?"
"She wasn't exactly the nurturing type, when she was around, I mean."
Cassandra
"Funny, she was never around for me. I wonder why."
"It's not like I asked to be taken from my parents by a madwoman. And the only thing Gothel ever wanted from me was my hair. She didn't love me. She didn't love either of us. Cass, the only good thing Gothel ever did was bring us together."
Cassandra
"Only good thing!!? You really think this is a good thing?"
Cassandra
"For you maybe."
Cassandra
"The missing mirror! You took it!?"
"What!!? No!! I have no idea how that got in my bag!"
(The hand mirror reveals another memory of Gothel, one showing her giving her young daughter her blue-and-gold music box)
"Turn the key like this, so whenever you hear this tune, you'll think of your dear sweet mother and the love I have for you."
Young Cassandra
"I love you, Mama."
"Cass! I have never seen that."
Cassandra
"Really!? The one mirror that showed that Mother- my mother- had a shred of affection for me and it just happens to be in your bag!!? (Coldly) Out of my way."
Cassandra
"Goodbye, Rapunzel."
What!? No!! Cassandra!! CASS!!!"
Gothel "Turn the key like this, so that whenever you hear this tune, you'll think of your dear sweet mother and the love I have for you."
Young Cassandra
"I love you, Mama."
"Hopefully that'll keep her out of my hair for awhile; lousy little pest."
Cassandra
It doesn't matter how many of you there are. Each of you will fall. (Unleashes a strong burst of Moonstone energy from the blade at the Royal Guards)
Cassandra! Stand down! (tells his adopted daughter)
Cassandra
You're the one who should stand down, Father. While you still can.
You know, I can't do that. (takes his sword)
Cassandra
Then you will fall like the others. (the Captain of the Guard flings his sword at her chest, where the Moonstone is and manages to easily shatter it)
Cassandra
No! My power! I don't need my powers to defeat you.
Cassandra. I can't fight you.
Cassandra
Then you will never be able to protect Corona. (grunting)
(gasps) (sighs) (wakes up from the scary nightmare of facing his adopted daughter again)
Cassandra
Do you want to explain how this got here? Back at Gothel's, I thought Rapunzel took the one memory that proved my mother loved me!
Cassandra
And you manipulated that memory, didn't you? You took this piece out! You tricked me into abandoning Rapunzel!
Perhaps or perhaps I simply pushed you to become what you were always meant to be.
Cassandra
Who are you? You're- You're that ancient demon Zhan Tiri?
Oh, quit pretending you're horrified. We're not so different, you and I. We were both cheated out of destiny!! In fact, we're more like sisters than you and Rapunzel ever were!! We even want the same thing! And we can get it if you continue to let me help you!
Cassandra
No! No, I'm nothing like you! Just because I'm pursuing my destiny doesn't make me a bad person!
Doesn't it? Run, Cassandra! But you can't run from who you are!
Cass, please! It's not too late to make things right!
Cassandra
Rapunzel, I want to believe you, but- (Zhan Tiri pushed the button to fire Varian's Project Obsidian to encase Cassandra)
"No! I said we didn't need to attack her!
I- I don't know what happened! It must have malfunctioned!
Cassandra
Project Obsidian, huh? Zhan Tiri was right.
Cassandra
You want me to be the bad guy? Fine! Now I'm the bad guy!
Cassandra, please! This is your home. (begs her to stop attacking Corona)
Cassandra
Not anymore! Corona falls today! (starts attacking Varian, Eugene and other citizens)
Cassandra, I'm putting a stop to this right now! (he, Varian, Lance and Fidella are mad at Cassandra)
Cassandra
Oooh! This oughta be good.
Cass, please. You were like a sister- (begs her to stop)
Cassandra
Save it!
MMary
Quick, everyone to the Castle! We'll be safe there! (she, Lance, Feldspar and the citizens of Corona are running to the castle)
Cassandra
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?
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.
Son, you cannot save a kingdom by being trapped inside it.
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)
(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.
Cassandra
You have to be careful who you trust.
(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.
