** Just the extent of Cassandra's humiliation. If you thought she sacrificed so much for Rapunzel, she risked ''even more'' for her personal endeavors: her [[WeUsedToBeFriends friendship]] with Rapunzel, her ties with her [[HappilyAdopted adoptive father]], a place in the Corona royal guards, her home. All to either avenge a mother who never loved her or achieve a destiny that would set her apart. And what did it amount to? Zhan Tiri stealing the moonstone, leaving Cassandra with [[LiteralMetaphor literally]] [[WaxingLyrical nothing left to lose]]. Every bridge she burned was [[AllForNothing all in vain]].

* We find out that, like Rapunzel towards Varian and Cassandra, Demanitus and Zhan Tiri [[WeUsedToBeFriends used to be friends]]. However, Zhan Tiri became increasingly power-hungry for the Sundrop and Moonstone, betraying Demanitus in the process, [[IDidWhatIHadToDo forcing]] him to banish her to the Lost Realm. Unlike Rapunzel with Cassandra and Varian, Demanitus and Zhan Tiri evidently ''never'' repaired their friendship.

* The final battle and ending is devastating for our heroes. After spending the entire episode convincing herself that she is not the bad guy, as well as trying to earnestly make amends with Rapunzel after realizing Zhan Tiri's deception, Cassandra finally gives in to her darkest intentions (thanks, once again, to Zhan Tiri's manipulation) and lays waste to her former home, sitting atop the throne as its conqueror. Later that night, Rapunzel looks over a Corona that has been devastated by the power of the Moonstone, which fulfills Rapunzel's worst nightmare as described in "Be Very Afraid." The hard look Rapunzel gives, combined with everything that had occurred, is hard to watch, as it appears that Rapunzel is finally convinced that Cassandra is beyond saving.

** Even worse, this is the result of Zhan Tiri once again manipulating Cassandra, first by slipping the mirror into Rapunzel's bag in the first place, and by removing a shard of the mirror which showed the full extent of the flashback: Gothel giving Cassandra the music box was just an attempt to keep the [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk "lousy little pest"]] out of her hair.
