Ryder: you know, I can't help but notice you seem... a little at war with yourself here.

Rapunzel: what?

Ryder: Now, I’m only picking up bits and pieces, of course, over protective mother, forbidden road trip. I mean, this is serious stuff. But let me ease your conscious /ˈkɒnʃəs/. This is part of growing up. A little rebellion /rɪˈbɛlyən/, a little adventure. That’s good, healthy even.

Rapunzel: you think?

Ryder: I know, you’re way over thinking this, trust me. Does your mother deserve it? No. will this break her heart and crush her soul? Of course. But you just got to do it.

Rapunzel: she would be heartbroken, you are right.

Ryder: I am, oh my. Oh bother.
