(bright music)
(knocking on door)
- [Cinderella] Good morning. Time to wake up.
- [Snow White] We even made you some breakfast! (giggles)
(knocking on door)
- [Cinderella] Do we just go in?
- [Giselle] Oh, but that might upset the poor girl!
- [Snow White] Oh, no! Princesses never upset. Watch.
♪ Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ♪
(boot whooshes) (princesses gasping)
- (groans) What are you lot doing in here?
Shouldn't you be off blowing rainbow kisses
and having tea parties with unicorns?
- Oh, don't be silly, we've already done that.
- We just wanted to say good morn... afternoon,
and bring you some breakfast in bed.
Just like I did for my step
mother
- I used to do it for my stepmother, too. (giggles)
- Oh, I used to deliver breakfast
to my step kidnapper mother person.
- Edward has a stepmother.
I've never met her, but I hear she's just-
- Okay, as thrilling as this all is,
how about you come back, hmm, let's say next year?
(calm music)
(Snow White giggling)
- Snow, would you open the drapes?
- Certainly!
(flies buzzing)
(Snow White gasps)
- What are you doing, Snow?
- I think I liked it better with the curtains closed.
- I think we should leave them open.
(mouth crunching)
- Oh, you poor thing.
You must be as hungry as a bear.
(Rapunzel gasps)
Did I say something wrong?
- She doesn't like that word.
- What word?
- Starts with a B, ends with what I have a lot of.
- Ba-Hair?
- Yes, that's the word.
- Oh, I'm so sorry. I'm new here!
You'll just have to bear with me.
(Merida spits)
- It's all right, calm down.
She didn't know. How's breakfast?
- Delicious, I've never had breakfast in bed before.
- Are you sure?
- I never said I didn't have lunch and dinner in bed, did I?
- Oh, my.
- There's another reason we're here,
Merida, it's about your room and it's
upkeep
- What upkeep? - Exactly.
You see, part of becoming a better royal you
is maintaining a happy home.
That home being your room.
- Oh, that's where that went.
- A clean home is a happy home.
I know seven little men that can attest to that.
- Wait, you're not here for breakfast and a chat,
you're here to lecture me about my room!
- Well, cleaning and chores can be fun. (laughs)
- Fun, I'd rather put a campfire out with my face
than sit here cleaning all day, it's boring!
Besides, it's all for naught.
It's just going to be a mess again anyway!
- We all have to do things we don't like from time to time.
- Even princesses. (giggles)
- Think of this as a little inter-friend-tion.
(whimsical music) - With a smile and a song,
any task won't take long.
- Oh, no, no, no, no, I don't sing!
I don't know how many times I have to tell ya,
I don't sing!
- Oh, but we do, so you'll have to bear with us!

(calm music) - Thanks to Audible
for sponsoring this video.
When you're creating it's always important,
at least for us, to do your research
to know where you're coming from,
or to find inspiration.
Fairytales are a well that any artist
can always draw from because these stories
have been in people's hearts for hundreds of years.
The first place we start our research
for many of our videos is "Grimms' Fairy Tales."
These are the stories that were read to us as children
and help us find the pathway from childhood to adulthood.
And although the stories have been adapted or reinterpreted,
they're still as captivating as the day they were written.
With Audible, your next adventure into a far off land
or down a yellow brick road is just a click away.
All you have to do is click the link below,
audible.com/pattycake,
or text pattycake to 500500
for a free 30 day trial.
You'll get the entire plus catalog,
which includes thousands of audio books,
podcasts, and originals.
We get asked a lot why fairytales
resonate so strongly with us.
And I think the answer is simple.
They give us something to hope for, something to believe in.
And even though it's a naive notion,
it gives us all the opportunity to believe
we really can live happily ever after.
