Flo hands the frying pan she brought for protection to Fluid, lassos her hair around a beam, and swings to safety. The guards attack Fluid and he effortlessly defends himself with the frying pan.
Fluid: Oh, man, I've got to get me one of these!
A sword gets thrust in his face and he raises the pan again to fight, only to find Frankenstein Jr holding the sword in his teeth. The horse attacks him and the boy defends himself again with the frying pan.
Fluid: *as he's sword fighting with the pan* You should know, this is the weirdest thing I've ever done!
Frankenstein Jr knocks the frying pan out of his hand and aims the sword at him again.
Fluid: Best two out of three?
As the horse points the sword at him, again, Flo lassos her hair around his hand and yanks, pulling him out of harms way. Flo swings him to safety and hears a noise behind her. When she looks, she sees that Frankenstein Jr had knocked over a support beam to get to her.
Fluid: *he's holding her hair* Come on, Blondie! jump!
Flo runs towards the edge with Frankenstein Jr on her heels. She jumps off the edge and the horse tries to grab her hair in his teeth, but misses by mere inches. With the support beam gone, the troughs and dam breaks, letting loose a torrent of water. Flo surfs down a trough with Fluid hot on her heels, he snatches up the fallen pan as he passes it. They run into a nearby mine, Fluid collecting up Flo's hair as he runs. Just as they enter the mine, a rock slide blocks the entrance, keeping anyone else from following them. The end of the tunnel has been blocked by rocks and the water is raising fast. As he make a desperate attempt to unblock the way out, Fluid gets a small, but painful cut on his palm. They went underwater to look for another way out, but it was too dark to see. As the water reaches their chests, they just resigned themselves to their fate.
Flo: This is all my fault. She was right, I never should have done this. I'm so... I'm so sorry, Fluid.
Fluid: Floyd.
Flo: What?
Floyd: My real name is Floyd Watterson. So, you might as well know.
Flo: I have magic hair that glows when I sing.
Floyd: What?
Flo: I have... *Realization* magic hair, that glows when I sing! *the water's to their necks* 🎵Flower gleam and glow. Let your power shine-🎵
The rising water fully engulfs them, but Flo sang enough for her hair to start glowing. They find an exit and quickly swim through it. Later, they surface in a river, gasping for air. They pull themselves out of the water, Coil is beside Floyd. Floyd's having a slight freakout over the fact that Flo's hair ACTUALLY glows.
Flo: Floyd!
Floyd: WHAT?
Flo: It doesn't JUST glow.
Coil turns to Floyd with a smug smirk, he can't wait to see the young thief's reaction.
Floyd: *notices the purple chubby chameleon's smirk and starts to feel uneasy.* Why is he smiling at me?
Elsewhere, Diamond Dazzler and the Twister surface
Dazzler: I'll kill him. I'll kill that, boy. We'll cut him off for the kingdom. Get back the crown, come on.
Cronella: Bo-oys!... perhaps you want to stop acting like wild dogs chasing their tails, and think for a moment. *The two villains pull their weapons on her* Oh, please there's no need for that. *She shows them the satchel with the crown in it and throws it at them* Well if that's all you desire, then be on your way! I was going to offer you something worth one thousand crowns, would have made you rich beyond belief. And that wasn't even the best part. Oh well, C'est la vie. Enjoy your crown.
Dazzler: What's the best part?
Cronella: It comes with revenge on Fluid.
With Flo and Floyd, Flo's wrapping her hair around Floyd's injury.
Floyd: So you're being strangely cryptic as you wrap your magic hair around my injured hand. *Grunts in pain*
Flo: Sorry. Just don't...don't freak out. *She takes a deep breath* 🎵 Flower gleam and glow, let your power shine. Make the clock reverse, bring back what once was mine.🎵 *Her hair begins to glow from roots to tips as she sings* 🎵Heal what has been hurt, change the fate's design. Save what has been lost, bring back what once was mine. What once was mine.🎵
Her hair dims as she finishes. Coil's still smirking at Floyd as he motions to his hand, telling him to look at it. Flo unwraps her hair form Floyd's hand with a nervous look on her face, the cut's completely gone, like he wasn't hurt in the first place. He almost freaks out, but one look at Flo's pleading eyes and he barely holds it in.
Floyd: *Stifled* Ahhh. I'm not freaking out, are you freaking out? No, I'm just very interested in your hair and the magical qualities that it possesses..how long has it been doing that, exactly?
Flo: Uh. Forever, I guess. Mother said when I was a baby people tried to cut it. They wanted to take it for themselves. But, once it's cut. *She pushes a loose strand behind her ear, revealing the small brown patch of hair that Cronella tried to cut so very long ago* It turns brown, and looses it's power. A gift like that, it has to be protected. That's why Mother never let me...That's why I...I never left the...
Floyd: You never left that tower. And you're still gonna go back?
Flo: No...yes. Ugh. It's complicated.
