The story so far
Everything you need before watchingA bedtime story reaches its most magical moment: a frog begs a princess for one kiss to break a witch's curse and become a handsome prince. Charlotte wants to hear the ending again, while Tiana firmly rejects the idea of kissing a frog. The scene then turns a familiar fairy-tale promise into a funny argument about imagination, stubbornness, and what a child truly wants.
