As it happens, a thief named Flynn Rider stumbles into their tower soon before her birthday. The young Rapunzel never leaves the tower, but as her 18th birthday approaches, she grows increasingly eager to head outside, especially to see the 'strange lights' that appear on her birthday each year. The king and queen mourn their lost daughter, and begin a tradition of releasing flying lanterns into the night sky every year on their daughter's birthday, with the hope that one day she will return. So she kidnaps the princess, hides her in a far-off tower, and raises her as her own. only for it to go brown, dead and useless. Wanting her flower back, Gothel steals into the castle and cuts a lock of the princess's hair. Her daughter was born with a full head of luxurious blonde locks with the same healing powers as the flower. Once given an infusion of the plant, the queen was fully healed. The kingdom sought out the legendary flower, and found it, thanks to a slip-up in Gothel's vigilance. But one day, the kingdom's pregnant queen fell deathly ill. A small, very prosperous kingdom cropped up nearby in the meantime. A woman named Mother Gothel used this power for centuries to keep herself eternally youthful and attempted to hide it for herself. Long ago, a single drop of sunlight fell to Earth from the heavens, and from that droplet sprang a magical flower with the power to heal all ills. It introduces the first CG Disney Princess. Originally called Rapunzel (and released in Asia and parts of Europe with said name instead, while earning the subtitle 'A Tangled Tale'), it is still based on the classic fairy tale and is also still a straight-up fairy tale film, despite what that new title might indicate.
