"FLYNN:" "This is the story of how I died." "But don't worry, this is a fun story, and the truth is, it isn't even mine." "This is the story of a girl named Rapunzel." "And it starts with the sun." "Once upon a time, a single drop of sunlight fell from the heavens." "And from this small drop of sun grew a magic golden flower." "It had the ability to heal the sick and injured." "Oh, you see that old woman over there?" "You might want to remember her." "She's kind of important." "Centuries passed and a hop, skip and a boat ride away there grew a kingdom." "The kingdom was ruled by a beloved king and queen." "And the queen was about to have a baby." "But she got sick." "Really sick." "She was running out of time, and that's when people start to look for a miracle." "Or in this case, a magic golden flower." "Ah!" "I told you she'd be important." "Instead of sharing the sun's gift, this woman, Mother Gothel, hoarded its healing power and used it to keep herself young for hundreds of years." "And all she had to do was sing a special song." "(SINGING) Flower, gleam and glow" "Let your power shine" "Make the clock reverse" "Bring back what once was mine" "What once was mine" "FLYNN:" "You get the gist."

"RAPUNZEL: (SINGING) Save what has been lost" "Bring back what once was mine" "What once was mine" "FLYNN:" "Gothel had found her new magic flower, but this time, she was determined to keep it hidden." "Why can't I go outside?" "The outside world is a dangerous place, filled with horrible, selfish people." "You must stay here, where you're safe." "Do you understand, flower?" "Yes, Mommy." "FLYNN:" "But the walls of that tower could not hide everything." "Each year, on her birthday, the king and queen released thousands of lanterns into the sky in hope that one day their lost princess would return." "(WHIMPERS)" "Ha!" "Hmm."
