Title: "In Like Flynn""

Okay, boys. Let's get to work.



Rapunzel: It's the first thing people
see when they enter the castle, Dad.

I mean, maybe we could
remodel it or something,

you know, make it
warm and welcoming.

That archway is an important
line of defense, Rapunzel.

It is imperative it convey
strength and security.

You want strength and
security, here's what you do...

Lion statues! Ooh, ooh, better yet... turn
the archway into a giant lion's mouth!

No, wait! Let's do
the whole lion...

Thank you, Eugene. I'll take those
suggestions under advisement.

Ahh, teamwork! Up high!

Your Majesty!

Right! You're eating.

We're eating.

Next time, then. Cool.



You know, Blondie, you might wanna
start coming up with lion designs

for that archway. I think that
idea got some real traction

with your dad.

I'm sure the king
loved your idea.

You do realize he was just being polite,
and probably didn't wanna call you

a nitwit to your face.

Cass! If my dad didn't like Eugene's
ideas, I think he would just say so.

Yeah. And he's never been shy about
calling me names to my face before.

Well, before you go

and have your royal advisor
nameplate made up,

you should probably know that whenever
the king wants to ignore an idea,

he always says,
"I'll take it under advisement."

Ha! Shows what you know!
I clearly remember him saying, "I'll"...

Take those suggestions
under advisement.

- Oh, no! He does think I'm a nitwit!
- And there it is!

This changes everything! I cannot have a
father-in-law who doesn't take me seriously!

Why not? No one else
takes you seriously.

That's not true, Eugene.
My dad thinks very highly of you.

Though, maybe there are times you
could be a bit more selective

about the kinds of things
you suggest to him.

He is the king, after all.

Et tu, Blondie?

Okay, you know what? It's fine.
It's fine. I can fix this.

Quick! Name things
your dad likes,

that I can pretend
I also like to impress him!

The emergency alarm!

Equis? As in the kingdom
next door, Equis?

Mm-hm.

What's that got to do
with my dad's statue?

Why is it all messed up?

Your dad's lifetime rival, King Trevor
of Equis, likes to play pranks on him.

By just drawing a silly face
on Dad's statue?

I can't imagine any intelligent
person finding this funny.

Anyway, King Trevor always manages
to thoroughly embarrass your father.

I can hear you, Captain.
And yes, I am embarrassed.

Embarrassed for him!
Really! The very idea

of a grown man partaking
in such infantile boobery!

- I still don't get it.
- I'll explain later.

Trevor has been trying to lure me
into partaking in his shenanigans

since our youth.

Well, I won't partake!

Do you hear me, Trevor?

I won't partake!

I must partake! I can't take
this embarrassment any longer.

Ooh, I need a prank!

I must show the people that,

despite that sign's
proclamations,

Equis does not rule!

I agree, but how?

Yes, how?

By striking against that
which he holds most dear!

The very symbol of his land!

You mean, the Seal of Equis?

But, Your Majesty, the castle
of Equis is impenetrable.

In fact, only one man has ever
successfully infiltrated its defenses.

And he...

You guys talkin' about me?

Blondie, great news!

Your dad just asked me to steal
the Royal Seal of Equis for him!

Stealing from Equis?

That doesn't sound
like a great idea.

Did you know that they have over a
thousand guards on duty at any given time?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know,
but don't you see?

It's the perfect way for me to prove to
him I'm more than just some nitwit thief!

By stealing something?

No.

By stealing something well.

- Hm.
- Hey, come on,

it's for the official royal prank!

I'm pretty sure that makes it
completely legal... ish.

Oh! Well, then let me
come with you.

I'm pretty good at surprises.

Sorry, Blondie,
but I've assessed the situation,

and this is a one-man job.

Luckily, Flynn Rider
does his best work alone.

Let's go, partner!

Wait! I'm sorry,
you wanna come with me?

Of course I'm coming with you. You think
I'm in the habit of dressing like this?

Though this new, dashing adventure
suit I had made is quite slimming.

I must witness Trevor's
humiliation first hand!

Ohh... yeah.

See, um, ha-ha.

The thing is, I was thinking you
wanted, you know, me to do it alone.

Uh, not that I wouldn't love
to have you along.

It's just, you probably
have way more important...

This is a matter
of national pride, son.

Of course it's important. And I specifically
said "we" would steal the Royal Seal

- of Equis, remember?
- I do! I do re... yes, you did say "we"!

I thought you were using the royal
"we," you know, being king?

Come on, let's do this!

How'd you put it before?
Teamwork! Up high!

Yeah. You know, when you say
"Up high," you usually...

Okie-dokie, never mind.

So, Your Majesty,
I've drawn up this map

based upon the brilliant way
I got into Castle Equis before,

to show you how this
is gonna go down.

All we need to do is borrow
a couple of uniforms

and waltz right through
the front door.

- Eh?
- We're not doing that.

- We're not?
- Eugene, as king

I've received
top military training.

After studying this map, I can say with
certainty that what is required here

is stealthy ingress.

And this is the perfect spot
to do it!

The northeast tower?

The heavily guarded, impossibly
fortified northeast tower?

No one will expect it.

Mmph, what's so fun
about pranks, anyway?

Mostly, the look on the other
person's face when they realize

what's happening.

So, it's supposed
to surprise people?

Well, it's more like a joke.

But, only the person responsible
for it thinks it's funny.

Oh. So, like the jokes
my dad tells.

No-oo. There's more to it
than that.

You need to get somebody
to expect one thing

and then do something unexpected
instead.

It's basically entertainment
for morons.

Hmmm.

Unexpected, eh?

By the time he wakes up, he'll be so well
rested he won't even know what hit him!

I can't wait to
see the look on his face.

Unexpected, but not clever.

All is clear.

Just follow my lead.

Your highness.

Ohh, whew.

Huh?

Hmm.

Aah!

Ah-huh-huh.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, boy.

Huh!

Get over...!

fellow guards.

Yes!

There. See? Easy.

Eugene, I thought I said the
guard uniforms were unnecessary.

Come on! Mm-hm?

Oh, yeah, no, don't mind me.

I'm just gonna scream
into this for a little bit.

- Ooh!
- Quiet, Eugene.

Okay. Just follow my lea...

Really?

- What was that?
- Better check it out.

This way!

They didn't spot me. A-ha!

Let's move out!

Ahhh! You love Rapunzel,
you love Rapunzel,

you love Rapunzel!

All I'm saying is,
if you bring a quiche to work,

you should bring enough
to share with your co-workers.

- That's... Just...
- Yeah, but, you don't even like quiche!

Yeah, but that's... First of all,

- don't tell me what I don't like.
- No, I know you don't like quiche.

Okay, because I...
I like a lotta things,

- but you never point that out.
- Uh-huh.

You just tell me
all the stuff I don't like.

- Yeah.
- Anyway, let's just get this done.

Okay, you start cleaning the
spears, I'll work on the swords.

Ha! Gotcha!

Ha! I just polished all of these
weapons before you could!

You should see
the look on your face!

You've just been pranked!

Or as it's soon
to be called, Rapunzelled.

That was clever.

But not funny.

Ahhh. The royal seal room.

How do you like that, Eugene?

- Told ya!
- Ooh!

Flawless plan.

Ahhh. Behind that curtain
lies the Royal Seal of Equis.

Oh-ho-ho, sweet revenge!

- It's a seal.
- Indeed. The Royal Seal... of Equis!

- It's a seal seal!
Not a royal seal!

It is a seal seal
owned by a king!

Thus, a royal seal.

- Hmm?
- You have got to be kid...

Y... You know what?
You know what?

At this point, never mind!

Just grab your end
and let's get outta here.

Yoo-ahh!

- What? What?
What are you doing?

Leaving a calling card, so Trevor
knows it was I who did this.

What should I paint, hm?

Eye patch? Stink lines?

Perhaps a tear, representing
his imminent humiliation

at being bested by me.

No! None of those things
should you paint!

Let us go now!

Oh, I'm gonna need
your grappling hook.

You're the expert.
What are we going to do now?

Oh, oh, so when you say "we,"
do you still mean the royal "we,"

which is actually you telling me
how to fix this?

Well, no. I'm
saying "we" as in us.

Eugene: Is that the royal
us, because it still sounds

like it's just me.

I asked you to come
so that "we" could get the seal.

Okay, okay, now I'm confused. You said
"I" and "we" in the same sentence,

which I'm finding
means the same thing.

Not to mention the fact that
I couldn't get the proper definition

of seal from you!

Huh? Uh-oh.

Uh, hey, guys.

Hey, you guys. Would you believe

that we're
the chandelier repairmen?

Repairing in the
middle of the night?

'Cause this thing is broken.

Well, this prank
has gone horribly awry.

Listen, I'm sorry
I lost my cool.

It's just, this whole prank was my big
chance to get you to take me seriously.

Take you seriously?

Yeah. And I was getting frustrated
when I wasn't able to do that.

I know. It was dumb.

You know, there are many things
I fail to take seriously.

Eugene... son, you brought my daughter
home to me after 18 long years.

If there's one man in the whole
world I take very seriously,

it's you.

Wow. Thanks, Your Majesty.

Can I ask then, why... why
didn't you listen to my ideas?

You know, I suppose sometimes
I let good ones slip through the cracks.

I should've given your plan
more consideration.

What you should have done was stayed
in your own kingdom, Frederic!

Trevor.

Your efforts to abscond with my sweet
Trevor Jr. were comical at best.

Oh. Yeah? Well, I don't think
your seal's too happy there.

Of course he's not! The poor
little darling is traumatized

by what you did to him!

All right, Trevor.
You've had your laughs.

Now, release us.

Oh, I'll let you go,

but not until I parade you through
town in nothing but a jester's hat,

proving once again that Equis
is superior to Corona!

For now, I leave you here to wallow
in the stench of your own defeat.

Trevor's right.

Oh, come on,
you don't smell that bad.

Plus, it's mostly seal.

I meant, I deserve to wear
nothing but a jester's hat.

Uh, Your Majesty? What the heck
does King Trevor know, anyway?

Once again, he showed himself

to be
the more accomplished prankster.

Accomplished?
His prank wasn't even funny!

I mean, I laughed, a little. But
still, all around, not that funny.

Yes, that's true. His pranks
are always more grating

than they are humorous.

Totally grating. Hey. Hey.

- That's it!
- What's it? What are you doing?

I'm gettin' us outta here.

The question is, are you
willing to try it my way?

Ha! Gotcha! You should see
the look on your face!

Did you see the look
on his face?

He expected one apple,
but then he got a whole bunch!

Best. Prank. Ever.

Funny. But not mischievous.

Eugene: Will you just
listen, Your Majesty?

There's no way you'll escape
that way!

Hey! What's goin' on in there?

Fellas! Would ya look at that?

The king, he escaped without me.

I don't know if I'm more impressed or
insulted. You know what I'm sayin'?

Open the door!

Oh, no, King Trevor's gonna
have our necks for this.

Lose something?

Quickly, if we go back the way
we came, he might not see us.

Wait.

Follow my lead.

Well, well.

It appears someone
hasn't learned their lesson yet.

Okay, okay, look, you got us.

This one is completely
our fault.

Ooh! Yes! Uh, we wanted to
pull some sort of prank

so that all this
wouldn't be in... vain.

Uh, really? And, and what were you
gonna do in there, pray tell?

Well, I thought it'd be funny to slip into
the library and rearrange the periodicals.

Historians hate that.

That is the worst idea
for a prank I have ever heard!

And in true Coronan fashion,
you would've failed! Again!

That's the real door
to the library!

Uh, no, nope. No, it's not.

I'm pretty sure
this is the library.

You imbecile! This is my castle!

I know where my library is!

Meh! Agree to disagree.

I'll prove it.

You see...

Forgot about your own top-notch
security for a second, didn't ya?

Well played, Eugene!

Very well played!

Up high.

Yeah!

Trevor: Let me up, Frederic!
There's spiders down here!

Spiders!
One just touched me!

Trevor: Trevor Jr.,
are you clapping?

Those had better
be claps of sorrow!

Would you look at that.

I've finally humiliated Trevor!

Oh, Your Majesty!

We have not yet begun
to humiliate that guy.

Ahhh.

Both: Huh?

Eugene: Oh, my.

Gotcha, Dad!

Oh, man, you should see
the look on your face right now.

Well, I suppose it's fine. As long
as you girls repaint the archway.

- By nightfall.
- Obviously, Dad.

Of course, Your Majesty.

Well, Raps, you finally figured
out this whole prank thing.

Yes!

It was unexpected, clever,
funny and mischievous,

but you overlooked one of the most
important parts of any good prank.

You didn't think it through.

We both still have to repaint
the archway by nightfall.

Remember?

Sorry, but I've got
princess duties to attend to.

Looks like you're gonna have
to do it all by yourself.

Still believe I didn't
think it through?

Kidding!

You just got pranked!

I totally got you!

You should've seen the look
on your face!

I just got Rapunzelled.

Well played, Raps.

Very well played.

Well, Your Majesty, did you do it?
Did you get the seal?

Unfortunately, no, Captain.

However, Eugene came up
with something far better.

Curse you, Frederic!

Frederic, curse you!
