The story so far
Everything you need before watchingAfter surviving a disastrous encounter with the Shadow Man, two frogs argue in the swamp about who lied to whom. Tiana reveals that she is a waitress, not a princess, while Naveen admits his wealthy parents have cut him off. Their insults turn into a negotiation: if he marries Charlotte, will he still help Tiana open her restaurant? The scene is a funny crash course in idioms, accusations, and stubborn promises.
