Outside the queens voice came. "Rapunzel? Can I come in, sweetheart?" She asked. Quickly Max helped Pascal hold the door closed. "You can't!" Rapunzel shouts quickly. "I'm.. brushing my teeth!" Rapunzel mumbles like she had something in her mouth. Eugene, Cass and Valor where picking up her hair.
"Oh, good. But I still can come in, can I?" Ariana asked her daughter. "Oh, believe me mom, you do not want to. Morning breath." Rapunzel tried to convince her. "Wouldn't want to expose you to that." Valor glances at Rapunzel. Rapunzel gives a smile and thumb up. While they shook their heads 'no'. "That's Ah, very thoughtful of you. Your, dad and I want you to join us on the terrace for breakfast." Ariana tells her.
Valor and the others look from one another. While Rapunzel replies back. "Um, I don't know. There is a lot of stuff I have to do to get ready." Rapunzel tells her. Casting her eyes towards her hair. "Rapunzel, well, your father has something very important to share with you. He's.. he's been waiting all night." The queen explains.
"Yeah, sure, um.. *sigh* I will meet you there in a minute?" Rapunzel tells her. Then her mother was gone. "The coronation is in two hours! How am I suppose to cut this hair!" Rapunzel asked still panicking. Valor shrugs she had no clue. But Cassandra smiles. "I might have an idea." All eyes on Cassandra as she explains her idea to them.

Once done. Rapunzel joins her parents for breakfast. "So, Rapunzel, ready for the big day?" Her mother asked her. "You bet! Already into the princess spirit!" They managed to stuff all her hair into a wig on her head. "The bigger the wig, the better the princess, right?" She asked trying to keep it on her head. It flops as she was taking.
"So then, Dad, Mom said you wanted to talk." Rapunzel addresses him. "Yes.. Rapunzel, last night, your mother and I had a discussion." He sighs. Then standing up he walks. "I know that I'm not always able to separate the man from the king and separate the father from the king has even proven more difficult."
He sighs again. "Sweetheart, I know this new life is hard to get used to, and I am sure that sometimes you wish I would get out of your hair." Rapunzel begins coughing. "Ooh, sorry. It's a little, um, dry out here. Anyone else dry?" Fredrick walks over to her and kneels.
"Rapunzel, you are going to be queen someday." Her father began explaining to her why he did what did. How it was his job to protect his Kingdom and her. How one day it will be her job. "Do you understand?" He asked her.
"It wasn't until last night that I realized that my methods may have at times seemed strict or unfair or.." "does this mean I can have more time to myself? Without having half the royal guard over my shoulder?" Rapunzel asked him. "Well, this means I'm willing to reconsider those methods. But I make no promises." He tells her.
"I can work with that." Rapunzel said kissing her dad's check. "Well I should go. I have a lot of princessing up to do." Rapunzel tells them as she leaves.

Eugene pokes his head into Rapunzel's room. "How are ya?" Cassandra sat in her lady in waiting attire sewing the coronation dress. Then walks in. And begins to whistle walking past. He tried to prune the flowers. But he cracks under pressure.
"Oh, come on!" He turns around facing Cassandra. "What is going on with Rapunzel? I mean, is it something I did?" Eugene asked her. "Probably." She replies. "And since when did she start keeping secrets from me?" Eugene asked her. "Hey, Fitzherbert, I need to get this done before the coronation, so do you mind throwing your putty party someplace else?" Cassandra remarks back to him.
"Look, Cass..andra." Eugene said exaggerating her name. "I know you don't like me for Rapunzel.." "..oh, that's not true." She begins to sass back. "I don't like you for anyone." She adds with a smile on her face.
Eugene stands with his arms crossed. "I just want what's best for her." He agreed back. "Oh, you don't say." Cassandra said with her sarcastic tone. "Of course! I want her to feel safe. I want her to be taken care of and I want her to be happy here." Eugene tries to explains.
Cassandra began to walk out. "Funny, you seem to have a pretty good handle on the things you want." With that she opens and closes the door. Eugene sits down and looks over at Pascal. "Oh don't you start." Eugene adds.

Rapunzel sat on her bed. Trying to keep the wig on straight. The 70 foot hair was making it hard to do so. A knock on the door as her mother walks in. "Hi, honey." Ariana said with a smile. "Oh, hi mom." Rapunzel greets her as the queen shuts the door. A box was in her hands. "You left so quickly after breakfast I.. I didn't have a chance to give this to you."
Ariana walks over and sits down. "I know it's a little early for a coronation gift but.. I thought you might want to see it now." She hands the box to her daughter. Rapunzel opens it revealing old diaries.
Grabbing one of them she flips it open and reads. "18th of July.. We embarked on a safari to the most remote plains of the third continent." Rapunzel turns the page. "21st of May.. Had to take shelter in a hidden cave to escape the fury of a violent storm. 12th of April.. helped villagers rebuild their war torn homes." Rapunzel lowers the book. "Mom, is this yours? Did you actually do this?" She asked the queen.
"Rapunzel, before I met your father, I was so much like you." She began. "I had no idea what I was supposed to have in this world. So I went out and found my own way." Ariana hands Rapunzel another book.
Rapunzel opens it. It was black as she flips through it. "You're father is right about one thing, you will be queen someday,but only you get to decide what kind of queen you'll be. And on one can tell you the best way to make that decision." The queen tells her.
"But how can I if.. Wait.. are you suggesting that I should..." "Honey.. find a way to fill those pages." The queen tells her. "I only ask that you be safe, be smart, above all.. be true to yourself." Rapnuzel smiles and turns the next page to read words written on the back of the cover. "Plus est en vous?" Rapunzel reads. "Plus est en vous. It means.. There is more in you."Her mother explains. They hugged each other.

The trumpet sounds as the time for the coronation was beginning. The king and queen stood in front of their thrones with a priest between them.
Back with Rapunzel. Cassandra was redoing her wig. With Valor helping out. "This would be a lot easier with the other girls helping." Cassandra said. "But they're such gossips, half the kingdom would know about your hair by now." Valor adds. As they tried to steady the wig.
"Are you sure you can't see it?" Cassandra pulls up the collar. "Positive." Valor adds. "You sure you can pull this off?" Cassandra asked her.
Rapunzel opens the door to look out. "I have to, guys." Rapunzel declares. "Just be careful you don't trip on this." Cassandra warns her. "It's not the dress I'm worried about." She pulls up the dress showing the shoes. "How do people walk in these things?" Valor chuckles. "It takes a lot of work."
Cassandra sighs. "Just relax. This going to be fine."Rapunzel smiles looking at her two friends.
