(muttering) Don't see why the lady-in-waiting
has to help set up for this thing.
Dumb science expo's for dorks, anyway.
Who's ready for the expo?
(groans)
Hey, Cassie! Hey, you wanna see my new invention?
Rumor has it it is a shoo-in for the first prize
in the contest.
(whispers) I started the rumor.
Oh. Hey, Varian.
First off, it's Cass, not Cassie.
Secondly, I'm slammed, so...
Oh, yeah, I... I hear ya.
Hey, so did I tell you that my invention
can create an entirely new element? I call it...
Cassandra, I thought you should know,
the Captain is short on guards for the expo.
This could be your big chance!
Come on, let's go!
(hooting)
Cassandra! Lookin' good!
You should see some of the inventions on display!
Look at these crazy goggles!
Oh. Hi, Varian!
I haven't seen you since we...
Since your last invention almost killed us.
So glad you're here.
With what looks like another invention.
Please, I wouldn't miss a chance
to promote the merits of alchemy.
And wait until you see my invention.
I think, uh, everyone at the expo will be impressed.
(chuckles) Cassandra's gonna be here, right?
Not that I'm doing this for Cassandra!
(chuckles) But, yes, she's gonna be there, right?
No, no, no! We'll need men here!
We'll put guards here, and...
Does this mean we're out of real guards, too?
- Um... - Blasted!
This exposition of science is just spreading our ranks too thin.
(harrumphs)
We need more guards!
- (clears throat) - (door closes)
(nickers)
I'll need the room.
So, you want your first guard assignment.
We've talked about this, Cassandra. I just don't know that you're ready.
Dad, I've been training with the guards since I was six.
I know castle procedures and protocol better than anyone,
so if there's any other reason why you feel
I'm not ready besides me being your daughter,
I'm all ears.
Very well.
- But... - There's always a but.
Your lady-in-waiting duties come first.
Only after you've finished those, including setting up for the expo, may you help.
Are we clear?
Crystal.
(groans)
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on!
(gasps) Ooh.
Oh, whoa.
Rapunzel: Wow.
Whoa!
That makes flipping flapjacks look like a piece of cake!
(laughs) Or should I say pancake?
I wouldn't.
Ladies and gentlemen, forget everything you know
about spring-loaded stilts!
- Rapunzel: Done! - Uh... Great?
(goat bleats)
Mmm! Fresh from this goat's body and into my tummy.
(gags, groans)
(groans, gags)
(gas hissing)
Woman: Attention, science lovers!
I am the one and only Fernanda Pizazzo!
- (applause) - Yes. Thank you, thank you.
You may ask yourselves what revolutionabilly,
stupendimonious invention lies behind this veil?
You're about to find out when revered master scientist,
and handsome morsel, Dr. Alcott St. Croix
arrives to name my entry into this contest first prize!
- (audience exclaims) - (gasps) This is all so inspiring!
I'm gonna go invent something right now! (squeals)
Should've seen that comin'!
Varian: There you are, Cass-not-Cassie.
We, uh, we didn't finish our conversation from earlier. (chuckles)
- I did. - (chuckles) Oh, you!
Seriously, I'm getting ready for the expo, and I think
you'll be pretty impressed with my invention, yeah.
The only thing is, when I present it to Master Dr. St. Croix,
it's gonna take two people to operate it.
Hey! Wanna be the assistant for my demonstration?
Assistant? What? Assis... N... No.
Look. (gasps) No! I can't catch a break today.
Varian, thanks for stopping by, but I wha...?
The stain. It's gone! But how?
Oh, simple. Grapes are acidic, by combining the alkalinity
from the flowers' barley grass with rock salt,
I was able to stop the stain's adhesion. Alchemy!
So, you've got a knack for this kind of thing!
- Any chance you'd want to... - Help you? Yes!
I... I mean, I'd... I'd love to.
Hey! If... If I help you, you can help me and be my assistant!
- It'll only take a minute! - Um... deal.
Great! We... We can be, uh, co-ladies-in-waiting.
Aha!
Let's not put a label on it.
(clattering)
(screams)
Okay, so for my first invention,
I wanted to start off with something small and simple.
Uh, can he take his tiny little claws off my eyes now?
- Rapunzel: Oh! Yeah! Pascal? - (squeaking)
I give you the Hey-Hey!
When I was in the tower, I devised a way to play catch by myself
using a ball and string.
Now, I believe, I've perfected that design.
How does it work? Glad you asked.
It's powered by potential and kinetic energy.
Science.
Hey-Hey!
Huh. Rapunzel, that's really amazing, but it's already been invented.
Hmm. Okay.
I guess I'll chalk that up to being locked in a tower for 18 years.
Good thing I have lots more amazing ideas where that came from.
Cassandra: Huh, look at that.
You make a pretty good co-lady-in-waiting after all.
Oh, really? You sure you wanna put a label on it?
Okay, so I could've been a little nicer earlier.
It's just, today's kind of a big deal for me.
Oh, you're talking about getting that guard assignment
from your dad. Aren't you?
No matter how much I want it or how hard I work,
his standards for me are higher than they are for anyone else.
Yeah. My dad's... kind of hard to impress too.
Dads. Am I right? Huh!
(bell chimes)
(growls) Who am I kidding? None of it matters anyway.
It's already noon and I still have to make up all the guest rooms.
Hey! I... I have an idea.
I'll finish your chores for you, so then you can do your guard duty,
and then maybe you can take a few minutes to be my assistant?
You sure you can get all this done?
Yeah. No problem.
It's the kind of thing friends do, right?
Right! Friends.
(Pascal exclaims)
Rapunzel: Carrots, celery, cucumbers.
What do these have in common?
Uh, I don't eat them.
No, wait. Don't tell me. (grunts)
(chitters)
We chop them! But knives can be really dangerous!
That's why I invented the Safety Slicer!
Just load it up, and...
Slice! Voila!
Ooh! That seems a little extreme, right?
I mean, for produce?
Besides, I think they have something like that already.
Really? This too?
Oh! How am I supposed to know everything that's ever been invented?
I don't know, maybe something a little more practical?
Practical. Okay. Sure.
Rapunzel: Automatic laundry cart?
Now that I have not seen.
- (shrieks) - (chitters)
(Varian grunting)
- Uh, Varian? Ugh! - Hey, Princess.
What are you doing?
I'm helping Cass with her work so she can pull guard duty.
But shouldn't you be setting up your exhibit?
Oh, theoretically, but I am presenting second to last,
so I figure that'll give me a few extra minutes to get ready.
(laughs) Plus, I just have that one room left right there.
Oh, and that room. Oh, that... that one, too.
Also... Also that one.
Look, Varian, I know you really like Cass, but I think...
Don't worry. Cass agreed to be my assistant during my presentation,
so, ya know, I got everything under control.
- On to the next room! - Varian, that is not a room, that's a...
- Oh, that's a... (yelling) - (thudding)
...staircase.
(crowd cheering, applauding)
Master Dr. St. Croix, welcome!
It is a pleasure to have you with us!
I imagine it would be.
I assume you are to be my personal security detail.
Um, unfortunately, no, but I have chosen
my very best man for the job.
Mm-hmm.
(grunts, sighs)
Cassandra: Wiped out?
Who? Me? No. Just fainted.
Uh, I mean, fin... I finished. Finished.
Finished? Wow. Varian, I'm impressed.
Oh, it was no big deal.
Now, um, if you'll excuse me, I have a contest to win.
Assistant?
Remember, you said it would only take a minute, I'm on duty.
- (shattering) - Ow! My back!
I went to get Master St. Croix a drink and slipped on the floor!
What kind of monster would leave a wet floor where people could slip on it?
Uh, Stan, what happened?
- (bones crack) - Oh! My back!
We need someone to replace him
as Master St. Croix's security detail.
Pete! On the double!
On my way! Whoa! (thuds) Ow! My back!
Why is the floor so slippery?
Guard: Hey, Pete, are you okay... Whoa! (thuds) My back!
(sighs) Cassandra, are you up for this?
Uh, Cassandra, don't you have
somewhere to be during the judging?
I'll do it.
One of you will walk away
with the greatest prize in all of sciences:
my approval.
As for the rest of you,
may the universe show mercy...
- (crowd gasps) - ...on your wretched souls.
- Good luck. - (crowd murmuring)
(scattered applause)
You ready? Because a certain alchemist could use his assistant.
Listen, Varian, I'm really sorry, but things have changed.
I can't help you anymore.
- I'm St. Croix's personal... - Hello?
Security detail? I have moved my person in this direction.
(grunts)
A personal security detail. Must be a big deal.
Don't worry about me. I am sure I can find another assistant
in the next five minutes.
(sighs)
Let the judgment begin!
(cheers, applause)
(goat bleats)
Can it milk a cow?
- No, sir! - Next!
(goat bleats)
Okay, Pascal, we've had some missteps, sure,
but I think this one is the winner.
You've got it in the bag, Blondie.
Showtime!
Next!
(cheers and applause)
Dangerously wet hallways.
Cold, wet clothes.
Wet hair that takes forever, and I mean, forever, to dry.
All of those things are yesterday's problems.
Say hello to the Mega Dry!
Assistant?
I'm all about the wet look.
The Mega Dry uses cutting-edge equine technology
to release a powerful, focused stream of air.
The result? What used to take hours to dry, now takes seconds.
- (audience exclaims) - Well, hello.
- (laughter) - Aah!
- (stammers) - Oops.
I think I still had it calibrated for my hair.
(laughing)
(clears throat)
Next.
(sighs)
Behold! The power of alchemy!
(audience laughs)
Shorty: Hey, where's the opening?
Aha! Oh-ho!
The power of ag, uh...
of, uh, that guy!
(quietly) Go. Do the thing.
(clears throat)
Oh, yeah!
I give you, the Elemental Remogrifier!
(gasping)
(cheers and applause)
Assistant?
Here we go.
The rotation causes friction, which heats the sand,
while the counter-centrifigual force promotes particle compression.
The end result? Fifty pounds of sand turns into...
- this. - (crowd exclaims)
- I call this new element... - (Shorty snoring)
...Cassandrium.
- (gasps) - (cheers and applause)
(snores, gasps)
(goat bleats)
(crowd gasps)
Despite its lack of flair and panache,
I was almost inclined to give your device a mediocre assessment.
Flair? What does that have to do with...
However,
considering your assistant nearly lanced my nasal cavity,
I've no choice but to disqualify you. Next!
(crowd groans)
Sir, with all due respect, you can't disqualify him because of his assistant.
You stick to guarding, I will stick to sciencing.
Got it? Hmm?
(gas hissing)
Everybody at this expo make some noise!
This is the momensational moment you've all been waiting for.
But first!
(booming)
I give you... chocolate!
- (crowd cheering) - Now this is science!
Jaws, prepare to drop. Larynxes, get ready to scream,
and eyeballs, how about you take a good look around,
because once I unveil my marveltacular creation,
the world will never look the same!
I give you... the Fantasphere!
(crowd gasps)
(gasps) How'd she do it?
Oh my gosh!
It's awesome!
(gasping)
(cheers, applause)
But what does it do?
Uh... The real question, kid, is, what doesn't it do?
Now, here, have some chocolate and shut up.
Dr. St. Croix: Its luster is glorious!
- (gasps) - I see no need to continue this contest!
(gasps)
- (cheers) - (cheers applause)
- You should've won. - It doesn't matter.
The truth is, all I really wanted to do was impress you.
I thought if I showed you what I was capable of,
you might see something in me.
Something special.
I was just being dumb.
But you did impress me.
Varian, you're a great kid.
You're smart. You're compassionate. You're unique.
Thanks, for saying that.
Oh, it looks like St. Croix liked your invention after all.
Master St. Croix! No!
No! Don't!
You're... You're building too much pressure!
Back off, boy! I'm a scientist.
- Don't! - (grunts)
Somebody do something!
Double disqualified!
You chose me!
Don't flatter yourself, kid.
Now come on, we've got a job to do!
- Oh, this is bad. - How bad?
Introducing counter-centrifugation to the magnetism
could result in... well, that!
Its angular momentum is rapidly approaching critical velocity.
Once that happens, it'll suck up everything in sight. Us! The castle!
Everything!
(screaming)
(zapping)
- (explosion) - Ooh!
- Aah! - You're welcome.
Okay, so, very bad. How do we stop it?
There's only one way to stop it.
I gotta get close enough to pull the hand brake!
Where do you think you're going?
You're gonna need an assistant!
(chuckles)
Whoa! Cassandra! Help!
(grunting)
(zapping)
(grunting)
I can't get close enough! The vortex has gotten too strong.
We need an equally powerful wind source to counteract it!
The Mega Dry!
The Mega Dry can generate that kind of wind speed
and blow against the vortex!
Yes!
He needs to create a counterpole
to the vortex's critical velocity!
Max, he means you have to run backwards!
(nickers)
(grunts) It's working!
Hold on, Cass!
(grunts)
Rapunzel: Woo-hoo!
(panting)
- Yeah! - We did it!
Blondie, hands down, your best invention yet!
(kisses)
Shorty (muffled): Pardon me, I believe I've been folded in half.
(St. Croix groans)
You! (whimpers) Neck... hurts. Ooh!
Master St. Croix, this still counts as a win, right?
No take back-sies?
I believe this was meant for you.
And, um, this was meant for you.
Thanks. And, Varian, about putting my own ambition
in front of our friendship, I'm sorry.
It's... It's okay, Cassandra.
Hey, call me Cassie.
Well, I guess I should start cleaning this mess up.
Cassandra, you helped prevent what could've been a disaster for all of us.
Well done.
And I have another assignment for you.
You know what, Dad?
I'm gonna set this aside for now.
I think my friend needs my help.
Well, as Captain of the Guard, turning down an assignment
doesn't bode well.
But as your dad, I'm proud of you.
Wow, you turned your dad down for me?
I'll find a way to make it up to him.
Besides, it's not every day you get an element named after you.
I actually got the idea after discovering a cluster
of these strange, black rocks by my village.
Both: Black rocks?
Varian: It was amazing.
They just kind of sprouted up a couple weeks ago.
I have never seen anything like it.
(chitters, squeaks)
Fascinating.
The rocks are demonstrating an actual physical response.
To you.
Shh! Varian.
I need you to promise to keep this between you and me, okay?
And them.
- Wh... Why? - Because my dad has forbidden me
from talking about these rocks to anyone.
We collectively are going to figure it out.
But I need to know that I can trust you.
You can count on me.
