[A sequence of beeps sounds over the network, pressed in a rhythm as if someone's trying to dial a phone number. The video feed cuts in rather suddenly, showing a very close-up view of an unfamiliar face.

[The "cat" gets a bigger grin from Rapunzel.]

I'm Rapunzel and this... [Turning the feed around quickly on a green chameleon that...quickly disappears with his camouflage.] ...Is Pascal.

Not at home, not really. Here it's a different story I guess. [And now that he's grinning, guess what line pops into her head: men with pointy teeth. ...Maybe mom was right about more than that.]
