Because sometimes, your TiVo timer didn’t get it quite right, and cut off the crucial final minutes of something that won’t get shown again for six months.Because sometimes, you’re not interested in seeing that movie everyone’s talking about but are dying to know what the hubbub is about anyway.Because sometimes, you vaguely remember an old movie that had some sort of plot twist at the end of it, but can’t remember what it was.Because sometimes, the surprise “spoiler” ending is the only reason you’d pay $11 to see what is otherwise a turkey of a film.Elinor and Merida enjoy their new deeper relationship, and the three young brothers return to their mischief. Merida has movingly convinced the clan leaders that all young people should be able to choose for themselves whom they will marry, and she is free to wait for someone to win her heart. Her little brothers also return to their human forms. Merida spreads the tapestry over her mother just before the sun rises, and the spell is broken. They fight viciously, but Elinor slams the bear into a rock formation several times, seeing that it is unstable, and the rock eventually falls onto the bear, killing it and releasing the grateful spirit of the clan prince under the spell. It tries to attack Merida, who has been shooting it with arrows, but Elinor is able to keep the bigger bear away from her. Just then the huge black bear bursts in and the hunters turn to attack him (he had been a clan prince who once asked the witch for the strength of ten men) and the men are no match for the bear. Merida fights the men pulling the ropes on her neck as well as her father, explaining that this is her mother. The cubs help Merida get out, and they follow the hunters, who have captured Elinor. As Elinor escapes the castle, all the visiting clans join in the hunt and Fergus locks Merida in her room for safety. Elinor is becoming more bear and less queen, so when Fergus finally sees the bear with Merida, he attacks the bear despite Merida’s protests. They spend much time sneaking back in to the castle to get to the tapestry and repair it. They grow closer and Merida sees how selfish she has been. A message has been left for Merida: that if she mends what has been torn by pride, before sunrise of the second day, the spell will be broken.Įlinor has to eat like a bear and finally manages it with Merida’s help. Merida and Elinor return to the witch’s hut but she is gone. The remainder of the cake is eaten by Merida’s three mischievous little brothers, and they turn into cubs.

There, she meets a witch who agrees to put a spell on Elinor so that Merida’s fate will be changed. In anger, she rips a tapestry depicting their family and rides away into the woods.
Merida is furious when she finds out, and she defeats all the princes in an archery contest. Merida and Elinor make peace and begin a new relationship as mother and daughter.Įlinor arranges for the heads of the 3 other clans to come to the castle and for the clan princes to compete for Merida’s hand in marriage. Mordu’s spirit (that of the human tyrant) nods to Merida and becomes a Will o’ the Wisp.Īs the sun rises, Elinor returns to normal, as do the boys.
