“Get away from me!”

“I’m not leaving you.”

“Go. Just… go.”

“There’s so much blood.”

“They turned me into this.”

“I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe.”

“Traitor!”

“I just want to go home…”

“They’re — they’re gone! They left us and they’re gone!”

“If I don’t make it out of here…”

“I didn’t think it would hurt this much…”

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry.”

“This is my fault.”

“Don’t close your eyes. Don’t leave me.”

“How could you do this?”

“I’m a monster. That’s all I ever have been.”

“Did you know all this time?”

“I can’t… I can’t… I can’t see.”

“I’m doing this for you.”

“Please don’t go.”

“You’re my best friend. I can’t leave you.”

“You… you were lying this entire time.”

“Everyone leaves in the end. They come, and they go. They all go…”

“You promised! You promised you’d stay!”

“You’re just going to give up?”

“Can you see me?”

“This is my responsibility.”

“I’m not just going to stand by while you destroy everything.”

“If one of us has to live, I’d rather it was you.”

“I’ve been lying to you.”

“I never want to see you again!”

“Trust me. One last time.”

“If we go down, we go together, okay?”

“I’m not going to abandon you! Not when you’re like this!”

“You’ve damned us all.”

“I… I have to go.”

“I can’t lose you again!”

“I’ve always known you would become a monster.”

“Hmm…” Chien Po put his hand under his chin, thinking. “Well, me and wife have been to many places in China, I don’t know which to choose.”

“Well, there was that festival at a local village. That counts as one.” Said Su to Chien Po.

“Chinese festivals must be lovely,” Rapunzel commented, "I hope to see one someday.” She had studied up on China before the two visited and though the decorations were beautiful.

“Well Rapunzel, we always wanted to go to other countries. And it seems that Corona wasn't​ the first we wanted to visit from China.” Said Su.

“Yes. I even went to Paris one time.” Said Chien Po.

“Wow, really?” Rapunzel asked, a bit too excited. She had dreams of traveling, seeing the world beyond her tower and the kingdom walls. Sadly, her father was pretty over protective of her and feared losing her again like before. So those dreams would have to wait.

“A bakery, please?” Asked Su to Rapunzel.

“Yes, maybe you can show us around your country perhaps?” Chien Po asked to Rapunzel.

“Of course it would be my pleasure, I’ll show you the bakery first. Our bakery is right this way,” Rapunzel said leading the duo, her guards following close behind. “Anita and her husband make the most wonderful baked good.” Rapunzel comments.
