Story
When Rapunzel, a protagonist of the movie, was a little, Gothel kidnaps her and hid in her manor, which is hidden deeply in dark woods, behind the magical wall. Gothel makes Rapunzel her own servant, who must make all work in all the manor. She categorically hates painting, and, when she saw trace of paint on Rapunzel's face, she was furious.

Rapunzel accidentaly discovers many things from Gothel's past in the basement; Gothel has a many invitations on different balls. Penelope finds a painting of Gothel and unknown man (later was clear, that it was Rapunzel's father, king Wilhelm), whose face was torn. Also, Rapunzel finds a silver hairbrush with her parents' wishes. In this moment, Gothel calls Rapunzel.

When Rapunzel discovers a secret tonnel and went to the village, Otto, Gothel's pet ferret, tells about Rapunzel's travelling. Gothel appears in Rapunzel's room and ask to her, how is the name of guy, which she meets today. Rapunzel doesn't know his name, and answered honestly: I don't know. Gothel destroys Rapunzel's paintings, transforms Rapunzel's room into the tall tower without any enters and says to Rapunzel, that it will be more bad for her, if Rapunzel will not says that boy's name.

Rapunzel's hairbrush transforms into the silver paintbrush. Rapunzel creates a magical enter into Stefan's kingdom; he invites her on masquarade ball in honor of his birthday. Rapunzel returns in the tower and starts to paint a dresses. Unfortunately, Otto sees the light of paintbrush and tells about it to Gothel. She appears and discovers a magical enter, painted by Rapunzel. She destroys it, cuts off Rapunzel's hairs, brokes up her paintbrush. She asks last, what is the name of this guy? Rapunzel answered, and Gothel, with Rapunzel's hairs, puts a horrible spell around Rapunzel's tower and flies into Stefan's castle.

Stefan saw someone with long hairs on the ball. He thinks, that it's Rapunzel, and runs behind her. In the centre of maze, Stefan finds "Rapunzel" and understand- it's not Rapunzel. Gothel talks with him and, when he says, that he wants to see Rapunzel, starts to attack. Stefan's little sisters and his brother want to help to Stefan, but Gothel attacks them, and they're run away. Gothel comes in the castle, where are already King Frederick and King Wilhelm. In this moment is clear, that Gothel is ex-lover of King WIlhelm. When he marries on another woman, Rapunzel's mother, Gothel kidnaps Rapunzel. In this moment, Rapunzel and Penelope appeared. She stops fight of two kings and finds her father. Gothel begins to attack Rapunzel; she runs away, and, when Gothel runs behind her, Rapunzel traps her into the painting of tower, which was painted by Rapunzel to turn her back into the tower again. Gothel is into the tower, spelled by herself, and all her spells are powerless against her only spell "A Lying Heart".

Gothel stays in the tower, and her ferret, Otto, was her servant, on Rapunzel's place.
